Andree

2:57 am
Atalante

2:58 am
sprite
I have to ask. Is that a clue?
2:58 am
sprite

2:59 am
Andree

Atalante

2:59 am
sprite
oh man, I found it!
2:59 am
sprite
it is boring
3:00 am
sprite
ah, you already said that, Andree. Sorry. Was absorbed by my own cleverness, hehehe.
3:00 am
Andree
well i was pretty pleased when i found it so you should be too
3:01 am
sprite
I was especially glad it was a real word :)
3:03 am
sprite
lol, and I found it because I was looking for the lone T in the bottom left corner. Which is still not grey.
3:04 am
sprite
(not asking for clue, happily blundering around)
3:04 am
Andree
i know sprite its usually you giving us clues
3:05 am
sprite
Andree, I shamelessly use the clues given in chat, I even scroll back the chat when I really get stuck :)
3:06 am
Andree
as we all do
3:06 am
Andree
i need the te5/12 after the boring word please
3:07 am
Atalante
lizardy babblet :)

Andree
babble makes us all shameless
3:07 am
sprite

3:12 am
Andree

Good morning/evening all. I'm well, thanks, Andree.
3:13 am
sprite
thanks Ata, lol. Another almost forgotten plural.
3:15 am
sprite
Andree, I checked a2z and there are lots of words with this double vowel, lol. Even (seriously) an 11-letter (un) word
3:15 am
Atalante
oooo what?
3:15 am
sprite
triiodothyronines
3:16 am
Atalante
three toothed somethings
3:16 am
Haz1558
Wouldn't that be the easy one to clue?
3:17 am
Atalante
you'd manage, Haz!
3:17 am
Andree
well i stand corrected, just shows that as well as not believing a word from the newspapers the radio too!!!
3:17 am
Atalante
*sings* she is the clueing queen
3:17 am
sprite
looked it up. 1: Biochemistry. a thyroid hormone, C15H12I3NO4, similar to thyroxine but several times more potent.
2. Pharmacology. a preparation of this hormone, used in treating hypothyroidism.
3:17 am
Haz1558
We'll have a Pollyanna moment and be glad that we don't have to!
3:18 am
sprite
thanks for saying it, Andree, because I'd never have known these things otherwise! You just made me smile all over.
3:19 am
sprite
the illness being:
1. deficient activity of the thyroid gland.
2. the condition produced by a deficiency of thyroid secretion, resulting in goiter, myxedema, and, in children, cretinism.
3:19 am
Atalante
brb Hobbit wants a walk. Except she can't have one cos we're waiting for the electrician to arrive. So I'll run her round the garden :)

3:25 am
sprite

3:25 am
Andree

3:26 am
Haz1558

3:26 am
sprite
thanks for telling me there is a second :)
3:26 am
Haz1558
That was for wi6/36 by the way.
3:26 am

Congratulations Andree!

Haz1558
Enjoy your meal and the rest of your evening, Andree.
3:31 am
Andree

3:32 am
Haz1558
Those Wontons know not to mess with you.
3:32 am
Andree
i grew my own chinese vegies and snow peas, have a great veg garden going since we moved in here
3:32 am
hurshy
dutied should count. that is a dutied item, you must pay the tariff.
3:32 am
sprite
that sounds delicious, Andree
3:33 am
sprite
hi hursh :) You have a point there.
3:33 am
Andree
bye all and happy babbling
3:35 am
Haz1558
My dictionary seems to think that dutiable fits the bill, but I know what you mean.
3:35 am
Haz1558
Welcome back, Ata.
3:36 am
hurshy
oh what a cute yawning sily
3:36 am
Atalante
Hobbit shall have a proper walk later to compensate for the indignities she will have to undergo later today
3:36 am
Atalante
she has far too many whiskers when she yawns!
3:36 am
Haz1558
Are we talking vet's visit for posterior proddings?
3:36 am
Atalante
that's the one
3:37 am
Atalante
and to go and assess a small lump she has that I'm absolutely sure is just a fatty lump, but it's better to go and check
3:38 am
Haz1558
Yes, better be on the safe side.
3:38 am
Atalante
she's going to hate me!
3:39 am
Haz1558
But stand firm. It's for her own good. Perhaps an extra spoonful of gruel this morning?
3:39 am
Atalante
maybe. if she's really good
3:40 am
Atalante
the nice thing is that the vets is just a few minutes from the beach, so I always go straight down there and let her have a 5 minute madspell
3:40 am
Haz1558
I'm sure she will be if she knows that there's an extra spoonful in store.
3:40 am
sprite
wb Ata, was afk myself for a few minutes
3:40 am
Atalante
I don't know ... she just tried to dig up the driveway ...
3:40 am
FMitch
Morning all back from the outside world.
3:41 am
Haz1558
Good morning FMitch. How was the outside world?
3:41 am
sprite
hi FM! Did you have fun there?
3:41 am
FMitch
Very mid but my its blowing up a storm, lots of grey clouds scudding around.
3:42 am
Haz1558
It's a great day here for drying washing.
3:42 am
FMitch
Hi spritey
3:43 am
FMitch
Right lets see what this grid is like then *dives in*
3:43 am
Haz1558
It's a nice one for a short grid.
3:43 am
FMitch
*no splashes* Im getting better!
3:44 am
sprite
interesting at certain moments, FM, to me anyway ;)
3:44 am
hurshy
may i just say, i don't think i could create a more annoying little grid if i tried!
3:44 am
sprite
try harder then, hursh ;)
3:44 am
FMitch
well good start 1st word is a w6
3:45 am
Haz1558
And there you have it. The diversity of opinion on this grid!
3:45 am
Haz1558
sprite, did you get that lone t yet?
3:45 am
FMitch
probably all down hill from here :)
3:45 am
Haz1558
Good morning bf.
3:45 am
hurshy
well, can you help me figure what the bottom T word is?
3:45 am
FMitch
Anyone doing anything exciting today or is it usual Mondays all round?
Hi bf
3:45 am
bfsog

3:46 am
sprite
no, you will rise one notch before the end, FM
3:46 am
sprite
oh great, bfsog! Did you enjoy it again?
3:46 am
Haz1558
te6 - almost performed as a child's playmate?
3:46 am
bfsog
yeah its good, especially "hello boys... i'm back...!" line
3:46 am
sprite
it is autumn holiday in the Netherlands, kids are home and hubby has taken the week off too.
3:47 am
FMitch
Oh I watched it (again) bf and Dirty Dancing was on at the same time
3:47 am
Haz1558
You're welcome.
3:47 am
FMitch
How nice sprite :)
3:47 am
sprite
my favorite part is where he says"Welcome to Earth!" and then goes on muttering all the way through the desert.
3:47 am
Haz1558
FMitch - have you been watching the Stephen Fry in America series?
3:48 am
FMitch
Yes, is't it great!
3:48 am
Atalante
I watched an awfully funny programme about bad dancing
3:48 am
FMitch
Mum has just stated rading his autobiography, Im next on the list to borrow it.
3:48 am
Haz1558
It really is very enjoyable. He could recite the phone directory and I'd listen, but his commentary is so much more entertaining than that!
3:49 am
FMitch
and there is a new series of QI starting um this month I think
3:49 am
Atalante
I'm waiting to see the whole thing at once when he's finished. I dont know why, I just feel like watching it that way
3:49 am
Atalante
I want to see the episode he's in Oregon though
3:49 am
Haz1558
He needn't apply for a job for the MIami Tourist Board any time soon.
3:50 am
Atalante
loool I heard that
3:50 am
FMitch
He was rather scathing
3:50 am
Haz1558
Wasn't he just?
3:51 am
reparteena
good day all!
3:51 am
Haz1558
Good morning rep.
3:51 am
sprite
hi reparteena
3:52 am
FMitch
Every time I find a word it seems to come from a tile that I am not working on - is this hows its going to be?
3:52 am
FMitch
thanks :( Hi rep
3:52 am
Haz1558
I'm afraid so, FMitch. Tiles light up in places unexpected.
3:53 am
redturtlehead
good morning, yet another teeny grid. It seems we are suffering from a grid diet.
3:53 am
reparteena
Hey Haz, Sprite, Ata, -- how's it going? 66 words??!!

Haz1558
Sorry, red. PB straightaway for you.

redturtlehead
Oh darn it all, I even had that word....
3:54 am
redturtlehead

3:54 am
FMitch

3:54 am
redturtlehead
sprite, your doorknob changed?
3:54 am
sprite
no red, it did not?
3:55 am
redturtlehead
I thought we had the same knob...well its the same knob, but different.
3:55 am
sprite
still the same disney char as yours.
3:55 am
sprite
that is what I said last night... same char, other icon. I love it.
3:55 am
FMitch
I forgot what the theme was today until I saw jilli type in the log 'nice knob you have there' to flosey.
3:55 am
Atalante
loooooooool
3:56 am
FMitch
Did you email GW sprite?
3:56 am
sprite
I did, FM, with all the birthday icons I could collect from Babble, some with text and all. Don't think he has seen it yet though.
3:57 am
FMitch
great, it will be a nice surpise for him :)
3:57 am
sprite
and the single U finished my grid... fireworks
3:57 am
FMitch
congrats sprite!
3:57 am
sprite
he is certainly someone that appreciates good thoughts :)
3:57 am

Hi FM.
4:01 am
sprite
you all have a great day then, and enjoy the good things. *hugs*
4:01 am
Atalante
urf, electrician man is going to be here all day. I hate that. I can't nap or feel ill with someone else in the house!
4:02 am
sprite
that is awful, Ata. *sends crystal shell to put around Ata to keep electricity man out*
4:02 am
FMitch
Whats he doing Ata?
4:02 am
Haz1558
That's probably why all those Victorian heroines with the vapours were able to get on with swooning - no electricians to cramp their style.
4:03 am
Atalante
um. I'm actually not quite sure. Something upstairs! Husband wants to do something or other to the lights in our bedroom, and I think it's a stupid idea, so I didn't listen to the details!
4:04 am
lynxxx
probably spotlights onto the mirror on the ceiling
4:05 am
FMitch
lol lynxxx
4:05 am
Atalante
he wants to get better lights in the room, and the room is in the oast turret so it has a really high ceiling, half way up are big old beams. I said to put spotlights under the beams. Sensible, yes?
4:05 am
Haz1558
Maybe disco lights?
4:05 am
Atalante
Oh no. He wants spotlights *above* the beams
4:06 am
Atalante
I stop listening at that point after telling him that was stupid
4:06 am
FMitch
Oh yes one of thos big morror balls!
4:06 am
Haz1558
Never stop listening to your husband, except when he's snoring.
4:07 am
Atalante
well he refused to believe it was stupid lol so I just told him to get on with it. He can realise it's stupid and then do what I suggested in the first place
4:07 am
Haz1558
I can see it now. Coloured lights, mirrored ceiling, glitter ball descending from the ceiling. It'll be great. Really in keeping with an oast house.
4:08 am
Atalante
and then I'll just say I told you so and please listen to me in the first place!
4:08 am
FMitch
don't forget the flock wallpaper and guilded cherubs
4:08 am
loredana
Hello Babblers
4:09 am
Haz1558
Is Stringfelllow available for interior design hints?
4:09 am
Atalante
*gasp* my bedroom is beautiful. It's Wedgewood blue and off-white, and utterly beautiful :)
4:09 am
Haz1558
Good evening loredana.
4:09 am
lynxxx
hello Lore
4:09 am
LoriP
66 words? Yuk. G'd morning Babblers
4:09 am
Haz1558
And yet you allow your husband in there, Ata?
4:09 am
FMitch
Ata my bedroom is wedgewood blue too!!!
Hi lore and Lori
4:09 am
Haz1558
Good morning Lori. It's small but beautifully formed.
4:10 am
Atalante
but seriously, how do you expect lights to light one's reading material when shone upwards into a big turret? I dont' get it
4:10 am
Haz1558
Wedgwood blue is all very well, but a few coloured lights will warm it up beautifully.
4:10 am
LoriP
Nothing a few well placed mirrors won't fix Ata.
4:11 am
Atalante
I do actually have a huge pink mirrorball, but D won't let me put it up LOL
4:11 am
Haz1558
If you painted the mirrorball Wedgwood blue?
4:11 am
LoriP
I'd set up a ridiculous matrix of mirrors, to a)irritate him and 2) make my point
4:12 am
FMitch
and you admit to owning a mirror ball in front of the whole world! *faints*
4:12 am
LoriP
***averts eyes from grid in hopes it gets bigger while I don't look at it***
4:12 am
Haz1558
All those mirrors would give him an advantage the next time he tries to cut his own hair.
4:12 am
Atalante
I have a very very bright powerful torch that I use to read by, and will continue to use after his stupid lights are put up. That will suitably annoy him!
4:12 am
Atalante
mirrorballs are good cat toys!
4:12 am
loredana
diddie wants her teddie
4:12 am
Atalante
like a million laser pointers at once!
4:13 am
FMitch
nice recovery there Ata
4:13 am
Haz1558
Ata - have you ever considered wearing a caver's light? Husband wears one when he's doing calvings etc at night when farm lights aren't enough.
4:13 am
Atalante
I do have one, actually!
4:14 am
Haz1558
Well, there you are! Bed-reading problem solved.
4:14 am
LoriP
or string lights around a tray that holds your book.
4:15 am
Haz1558
You could train Hobbit to be the bearer of light. She'd look cute with a caver's light strapped round her head.
4:15 am
Haz1558
Not so much a Guide Dog as a Light up Dog.
4:15 am
Atalante
awwwww she would
4:16 am
Atalante
except Hobbit's not Allowed In There
4:17 am
Haz1558
Oh, I forgot. She's confined to Kennels under The New Regime.
4:17 am
LoriP
It's good that Ata's not bitter, and has already planned out her move. Marriage is like chess ya' know.
4:18 am
Haz1558
I never did learn to play chess.
4:18 am
Atalante
says the dog that spent the night curled up warming my butt!
4:18 am
LoriP
Indeed. Ata allowed far too many liberties to the beasts prior to the regime change.
4:19 am
Haz1558
She's made a rod for her own back.
4:21 am
Atalante
where *is* the dog? she's gone suspiciously quiet ...
4:21 am
lynxxx
BBL dinner is served
4:22 am
Haz1558
She's been reading the log and has worked out what posterior proddings means. Keep the dictionary away from her, Ata!
4:22 am
LoriP
Later Lynx!
4:22 am
Haz1558
See you lynxxx.
4:22 am
Atalante
probably!!
4:25 am
Haz1558
Ah well, duty calls so I'd better take myself off and do something useful. Have a good day!
4:25 am
loredana

shift
4:56 am
Atalante
In the later part of the 1990s, 'paradigm shift' emerged as a buzzword, popularized as marketing speak and appearing more frequently in print and publication.[3] In his book, Mind The Gaffe, author Larry Trask advises readers to refrain from using it, and to use caution when reading anything that contains the phrase. It is referred to in several articles and books[4][5] as abused and overused to the point of becoming meaningless.

Atalante, I know that...it was while I was on firefox I sent a message to DrG and I dont have a firefox address and wouldnt take my aol address..so went back to aol...am I making sense here?
6:52 am
herinfernallady
You make sense Annie
6:53 am
Anniebrook
herin, thanks...i really appreciate that
6:54 am
Atalante
it should take your aol address, you should be able to write "sausages and mash" in there as your email cos its not an essential field. note - *should* :)
6:54 am
Atalante
and you don't have firefox email addys - just fyi! - you use whatever your email happens to be, whether hotmail, aol, gmail etc
6:55 am
Anniebrook
Ata, lol...okay...that is what I thought but I kept getting a warning in RED on top of page that my email address was invalid....I do not fight with computers ...they usually win...but will try again if needed
6:56 am
Atalante
weird! but yes, you were right :) in theory :)
6:57 am

i believe the stone is tanzanite -- its bluish-purplish...
8:31 am

very nice eva;)
8:31 am
Haz1558
Tanzanite - can only be found in Tanzania - a fact I learned this summer.

And yes, it's blue/purple. What a lovely gift!
8:32 am

my coworker (who is otherwise very thin + healthy) has a sickening drink when she really needs some help -- she will mix a starbucks frappuccino with a starbucks double-shot of espresso

8:32 am

that cannot be good for a body eva

I had never known it before but that makes it quite special (the tanzanite, I mean)
8:33 am
EvaNadine
also a beautiful ring.
its a flip-ring with black on one side + white on the other...im thinking its faux onyx + mother of pearl (i doubt its real)
but its gorgeous also!
he really nailed my style with these. :)
8:33 am

she is thin cause her heart is going 240 beats per min on all that caffene

You never know, EvaN, he might have splashed out on the real goods.
8:34 am

but only when shes really dragging...
shes one of those people with a natural buzz...heh

(peeks at the chat, has no idea what they're talking about, goes back to grid)

caffene,jewelery,and lousy 80,s music that about caps it gwen

if it means a lot to you eva,it does not matter the cost
8:35 am

been 2 years now. the topic is discussed now + then. he even knows exactly what style ring i want.
just a matter now of him realizing its time. ;)
8:36 am
Haz1558
Steering him past every jewellery store in town would help.
8:36 am
Atalante
give it a yer or two then :P
8:36 am
EvaNadine
exactly true, crossy -- if anything, id prefer a smaller-ish stone to what many people i know have. i wouldnt be comfortable with a huge rock!
8:36 am
FMitch
ooooh EvaN I wanted to ask you that, do you think it might at soome time?
8:37 am
crosshair
i bought my wife a custom made stief-type bear for one of our anniversarys..thing cost 280 dollars and i never told her the price she loves it like the ten dollar bears i get her:)
8:37 am
Haz1558
It can depend as well on the size and shape of your hand. Also if you're going to wear the ring all the time, it needs to be not too fancy in structure.
8:37 am
FMitch
Thats the best crossy, mine did similar for me
8:37 am
EvaNadine
well, he did say at the beach that he wouldnt have done it there because it would have been too expected + he really wanted to surprise me.
but i also know he is TERRIBLE at saving up money, so part of me thinks he hasnt even started the process yet...
8:38 am
crosshair
just enjoy the baubbles and give him a exra kiss at night;)
8:38 am
Haz1558
So, has he already proposed, or is he going to have to find a spectacular way of popping the question?
8:38 am
FMitch
but the intention might be there none the less EvaN? Do we hear wedding beels some time?
8:38 am
crosshair
ohh the big question coming up?
8:39 am

no idea if its gonna be any time soon...im in the dark. :)
8:39 am

8:39 am

my wife proposed to me....crossy was shy:))
8:39 am
Haz1558
You want to give us his e-mail address so that we can mount a campaign?
8:39 am

being that he didnt do it on our anniversary, im guessing christmas (december) and my bday and v-day (february) are probably out of the question too
8:40 am
Haz1558
I never had a proposal. We just 'knew'.
8:41 am

i think public marriage proposals are a bit goofy, like calling someone from the Oprah show, etc. because you know the person is going to say yes even if they take it back later
8:47 am
EvaNadine
and for anyone who is interested, this is pretty much the style of ring ive pointed out to him:

8:49 am
FMitch
B insisted we got a ring but I cound't find one I wanted so I designed one and had it made instead, recycled gold I had and now I have a unique ring.

Hello Annie!
8:51 am
KatieMcG
I sat next to a couple in a restaurant the other week and she gave him a present inside was a message in a bottle and she had asked him to marry her.........
8:51 am
Haz1558
And it's very nice!
8:51 am
EvaNadine
my good friend + her hubby were HS sweethearts.
they were married for almost 10 years before she got an engagement ring...hah
8:51 am
KatieMcG
He said ye and there were tears all round, it was lovely
8:51 am
Anniebrook
Hi Haz!
8:51 am
Haz1558
(FM's ring I mean)
8:52 am
EvaNadine
i saw a proposal on TV that was pretty awesome:
8:53 am
Haz1558
Waiting for the awesome proposal....
8:53 am
EvaNadine
they were planning dates for each other, but she didnt know he was really planning a proposal.
she got her best friend to help her set up a beach picnic + bury a pocket watch for him. she created a map to give to him that led him to her, where they would first go hang gliding, then it led him to the picnic.
she told him to dig where the "X" was + he found the watch...
8:53 am
FMitch
B asked me to marry him after 6 weeks but I said no a) because it wa way to early in the relationship and b) he had been married twice before - sometimes not getting married works too.
8:54 am
EvaNadine
that was pretty great, but what she didnt know is that her best friend also helped HIM bury the engagement ring in a treasure chest next to the picnic...
so after digging out the watch, he drew another "X" in the sand + told her to dig...
she was SO confused since they were on her date, not his...then she got the ring + said yes!
8:54 am
Haz1558
I hadn't realised that there were 2 ex-wives.
8:55 am
Haz1558
What a man!
8:56 am
EvaNadine
the funny thing was, you could tell for a split second that she was ticked off that her awesome date hadnt been a surprise...
but then she quickly got over it!
hehe
8:56 am
Haz1558
That best friend must have been sick of the sight of the beach by the time all that digging was done.
8:56 am
FMitch
and the detritus is heinous
8:56 am
EvaNadine
hah, i bet!
thankfully, they didnt dig very deep...
8:57 am
Haz1558
Big mess all round, FMitch?

Karys wedding on the high seas - pirates were celebrating around the world :)

9:30 am
Atalante
oh yes! or artist's masking fluid :)

EvaNadine
i once almost passed out in a doctors office + he didnt have the salts on that office, but there was a bottle of windex.
he couldnt get the lid off in time to hold it under my nose, so he just sprayed me once in the face...
(i suspect spraying even water in my face would have worked then!)
9:31 am
Atalante
have you smelled masking fluid, vi? omg *cough cough*
9:31 am
Vicuna
Anything that makes you whoop!
9:32 am

EvaNadine

10:01 am
crosshair
yaa for boo1 21 gun salute for you!
10:01 am
Haz1558
That must have been a while ago. Health and safety wouldn't permit that any more in case the fans got hurt.
10:01 am
EvaNadine
ata -- i dont know when/how/why he started in on Newcastle, but he chose them + hes stuck with them.
10:01 am
Boobear

10:01 am
Judi
Good morning, hooligans. *lobs bananas to the Babble monkeys*
10:02 am
Atalante
sounds about right for Italy. everyone is allowed fireworks in those stadia
10:02 am
EvaNadine
when i was in england 2 years ago, i went into the sports shops trying to find Newcastle stuff + was all but laughed at in my face!
*shakes head*
10:02 am
crosshair

10:02 am
Atalante

Haz1558
There's no National Service so they have to have some form of release for all that testosterone.
10:03 am
crosshair
we used to just fight at hockey rinks;)
10:04 am
crosshair
a puck going at 200 mph works wonders;0

Jeez louise. Are there enough vowels in this grid?
10:05 am
crosshair
we had skates..remember.nothing says loving like a sharp blade across the thigh
10:05 am
Haz1558
Maybe that explains David Beckham's voice. Could he have attended a hockey game as a child?
10:05 am
Atalante
well he certainly didn't attend English lessons!
10:05 am
grandmalori36
Hi guys.. .only 66 words today? Does that mean I have a chance? probably not lol

10:06 am
Haz1558
Oh well, you know, I'm, you know, a, you know, footballer and, you know, I'm not, you know, very, you know, articulate.
10:06 am
Judi
Lol, Crossy. My hubby got a skate across his nose once. Blaagh.
10:06 am
crosshair
and when you checked into the corners you would hold the stick under the armpit leading,with 3 inches sticking out..just right for a sternum shot
10:06 am
Haz1558
Beckham is perfectly suited to being a silent movie star.
10:07 am
crosshair

Crossy: wi6/36 sounds like ti5/14 with an double consonant in the middle.
10:20 am
rururocks

10:20 am
rururocks

EvaNadine

11:26 am
Haz1558
Hello caitlyn!
11:26 am
Haz1558
si5 - command to dog (three) you and me (two)
11:27 am
Haz1558
And hello again to TO.
11:27 am
72 Temple Owl
OMG yo have added telepathy to your powers! *prostrates self*
11:27 am
caitlyn
How is everyone?
11:27 am
Haz1558
Arise, my child, it was my pleasure.
11:28 am
72 Temple Owl
however, you would be proud that i found two words using a to z and adjoining letters.
11:28 am
Haz1558
I'm fine, caitlyn, TO will be once she has got herself up from the ground.
11:28 am
72 Temple Owl
LOL
11:28 am
Haz1558
I'm not only proud, TO, I'm in awe.
11:28 am
72 Temple Owl
no list
11:28 am
caitlyn
Get up now TO you might get trodden on
11:29 am
Haz1558
You will join the Greats of Babble.
11:29 am
72 Temple Owl
well if you are down to three and each had a different # of letters...
11:29 am
Haz1558
Yes, detectives would probably do well to babble in order to hone their powers and skills.
11:30 am
72 Temple Owl
well - how did those do it when lickety was on vacation> either the old fashioned way or they have written a program
11:30 am
72 Temple Owl
i'd like to think the old fashioned way
11:30 am
Haz1558
Many of those who go listless have always gone listless and are used to feeling listless.
11:30 am
caitlyn
TO someone posted everyday
11:31 am
72 Temple Owl
i feel listless most days. btw haz the cake turned out "interesting"
11:31 am
Haz1558
And, in reality, I think there was a list posted just about every day in BabAnon.
11:31 am
72 Temple Owl
but SOMEONE had to solve it to get that list
11:31 am
Haz1558
'Interesting' is one of those words that can mean anything. Like 'challenging' or 'it was an experience'.
11:32 am
Haz1558
Oh, I know, TO. Did you notice that it was never me posting any list?
11:32 am
caitlyn
LOL Haz, nor me
11:32 am
72 Temple Owl
well - i knew it was dense but it was a bit too much fo rme. the marbling was actual melted chocolate folded directly in to the cake. imagine that.
11:32 am
Haz1558
There's probably a bit of help going on especially at flip (though some are more hindrance than help, but we'll not go into that)
11:33 am
72 Temple Owl
someone actually said it didn't need that much chocolate. we looked at her in amazement.
11:33 am
Haz1558
Chocolate folded directly in? Rich, indeed.
11:34 am
72 Temple Owl
it had 8 oz butter, 10 oz cream cheese and 4 oz shortening. next time i'll be sure it has "give" when i declare it done.
11:35 am
Haz1558
Whenever I've done marbled cakes, it's been a sponge mixture flavoured in different ways and then dropped at random into the tin. Marbling happens with the aid of a skewer.
11:35 am
Haz1558
The calorie count must have been pretty high with all that fat!
11:36 am
72 Temple Owl
well i make cream cheese brownies which should be marbles but i tend to keep the marbling shallow to make a topping. but for this more rigorous marbling is needed.
11:36 am
72 Temple Owl
well pound cake if all about the fat.
11:37 am
72 Temple Owl
LOL i used neufchatel cheese to cut out some fat ;)
11:37 am
Haz1558
And do you weigh a pound heavier after consumption?
11:37 am
72 Temple Owl
LOl several
11:37 am
caitlyn
Im putting weight on with all this chat about cakes!!
11:37 am
72 Temple Owl
i also made a pumpkin pie - it's the easiest of pies.
11:38 am
Haz1558
Would it work the other way? If we started talking about rice crackers, would the pounds fall off?
11:38 am
caitlyn
Thats a thought Haz
11:38 am
Haz1558
So, caitlyn, what flavour of rice cracker do you favour?
11:38 am
72 Temple Owl
ooh let's do try! et's talk about lettuce and cucumbers
11:39 am
Haz1558
(Just thinking - rice cracker and flavour in one sentence - something amiss!)
11:39 am
caitlyn
My down fall isnt cakes, its cheese!
11:40 am
Haz1558
Any type of cheese, or do you have a favourite?
11:40 am
caitlyn
Oh Im not fussy Haz, any will do LOL
11:41 am
caitlyn
Although I do love feta cheese
11:41 am
rolin
hmm half way in ten minutes... why do i feel a wall looming?
11:41 am
Haz1558
I'm not madly keen on cheese, but there's a Wensleydale with cranberries....
11:41 am
caitlyn
Hi rolin !
11:42 am
Haz1558
Hello rolin! You may not hit a wall. You may be one of the Babble Greats.
11:42 am
rolin
lol...oh no haz... im a plodder....
11:43 am
rolin
hey catlin...*s*
11:43 am
Haz1558
Anybody else feeling their waist expand by 2 inches once we started talking about cheese?
11:43 am
rolin
yup...and the chocolate cake..
11:43 am
72 Temple Owl

That was supposed to read salad!
11:44 am
72 Temple Owl
welno it's not! late, all!

Haz1558
Lettuce not speak ill of radish.
11:47 am

11:48 am
caitlyn
Wet Wet Wet (thats a good name for a pop group ) Im waiting for a lull so I can put rubbish out
11:48 am
Haz1558
Wet Wet Wet - now there's a group I could listen to without feeling suicidal.
11:50 am
Haz1558
Do you want to form the Wet Wet Wet mature ladies fan club?
11:50 am
caitlyn
Has FM been on today?
11:50 am
caitlyn
Marti Pello appreciation society
11:50 am
Haz1558
Yes, she was on earlier. Still much bothered by builders' noise.
11:51 am
Haz1558
Yes, Martie always made me smile. I found it hard to associate him with heroin addiction.
11:51 am
caitlyn
Shame I missed her
11:51 am
Haz1558
She may well be on later.
11:52 am
Haz1558
She was talking of her youth when she wore turquoise dungarees.
11:52 am
Haz1558
And platform shoes! The things you find out about people.
11:52 am
caitlyn
They were all the fashion the brighter the better

gramma
Hi everybody! I've just been baa,baa,babbling along. I now have 5 left and I can't find a 1 of them. After I te**** the hay, I went blank. Help w/TE's would be appreciated.
11:52 am
wildcat17
ugh stuck
11:53 am
gramma
wildcat, maybe I could help?
11:53 am
Haz1558
te7 - is a very boring word, humdrum and annoying
11:53 am
caitlyn
I can remember wearing thick white tights and very black eyes, the Sandie Shaw look
11:53 am
caitlyn
Hi gramma
11:53 am
Haz1558
te5/12 - put a double helping of a vowel into little Edward, and then plural for te6
11:54 am
gramma
Hi caitlyn.
11:54 am
Haz1558
I remember Sandie Shaw - didn't wear shoes when performing.
11:54 am
Haz1558
It seems such an innocent gimmick now.
11:54 am
wildcat17
need one each from top T, right D and S
11:54 am
wildcat17
need one from A
11:54 am
wildcat17

11:55 am
Haz1558
ad4/5 - what the maths teacher said when she wanted a total?
11:55 am
wildcat17
ty that helped
11:55 am
Haz1558
wi6 - either a computer term or wi6 - a hangman's noose, consisting of three letters of the woman left without a husband and three letters of 'to pass away'
11:56 am
wildcat17
that helped too ty
11:56 am
gramma
I didn't get the double helping of the vowel.?
11:56 am
Haz1558
You're welcome.
11:57 am
Haz1558
te5 - te, double helping of a vowel, finsh with a consonant. Think of Senator Kennedy with vowels inserted

12:46 pm
nDanLia
a di'nn'inutive way of describing woan/an whose spouse has passed
12:47 pm
nDanLia
*wo'nn'an
12:47 pm

It rhymes with a slang term for a short person,,,but starts with a differant letter

1:04 pm
Vicuna
Oh, uh... Bye, KatieMcG! Hello, bfsog!
1:05 pm
bfsog
hi vicuna. while its quiet il ask you (an american i presume) who is your money on for the pres.election
1:05 pm
Vicuna
Obama is the more likely winner according to current indications.
1:05 pm
Vicuna
Obama is also my choice.
1:05 pm
bfsog
thats the impression the UK is being told, too
1:06 pm
storyteller
I also am an Obama Mama!!!!
1:06 pm
Vicuna
Lots of people are predicting a landslide, but I'm much too nervous to believe that yet.
1:07 pm
bfsog
i wouldnt say a landslide, but then im not in america, but i feel hes the favourite
1:07 pm
Vicuna
It's also not productive to get complacent before the votes are in!
1:07 pm
nDanLia
it reallly hinges on a few states
1:07 pm
storyteller
I agree with you, it doesn't pay to be to sure of anything after what happened with Bush first election
1:07 pm
Vicuna
It's crazy.
1:08 pm
nDanLia
and whether the young vote actually turns out [not doing so affected the polls/last 2 elections]
1:09 pm
Vicuna
One thing that Obama has over the last two elections is that people want to vote FOR him as opposed to just voting AGAINST Bush.
1:11 pm
nDanLia
in a way though, the house & senate races are 'nn'ore i'nn'portant
1:11 pm
storyteller
Americans are so excited about this election that even the dead are voting!!
1:11 pm
Vicuna
Hmmm... Hopefully not too many of them, storyteller!
1:12 pm
nDanLia
there have been lots of new voter lists with proble'nn's, unfortunately; it hurts the whole thing
1:13 pm
storyteller
My husbands registration got all jumbled in with the Acorn regs, I am still a little worried about him not being on the register when we go to vote.
1:13 pm
Vicuna
Yeah. It's frustrating when incompetence or greed ruin things for everyone.
1:15 pm
Vicuna
Well, time to fetch the offspring. Bye, all.
1:37 pm
EvaNadine
so...anyone here?
or did the political chat kill the chatlog?
1:39 pm
stidmama
hello friends! I have 20 minutes to play... finished the reading I wanted to do in between things this morning, so ... how's the grid?
1:40 pm
stidmama
hi EvaN...
1:40 pm
EvaNadine
small, but feisty...
1:40 pm
stidmama
thanks, not bad then. I have some time... as long as lickety is up I shall make it before flip. LOL
1:41 pm
EvaNadine
stid, tu es americainne, vraiment, non?
1:41 pm
EvaNadine
ou anglaise?
1:42 pm
stidmama
oui, c'est vrai, mai pour (today - aujord'hui?) je suis canadienne.
1:42 pm
EvaNadine
heh, i think thats about all of my french. :)
1:42 pm
stidmama
yeah. me too. LOL
1:43 pm
stidmama
I get confused with what italian I remember and it all goes downhill from there.
1:43 pm
EvaNadine
twas a good exercise. :)
1:43 pm
stidmama
*bleck face* exercise. yuck.
1:44 pm
stidmama
how are you doing these days, EvaN?
1:44 pm
EvaNadine
busy, but good.
sneaking in to babble whenever i can. :)
1:45 pm
stidmama
yeah, me too. I love Mondays because I volunteer at the local school and can slip home at lunch to be in the quiet house with the unquiet dog.
1:45 pm
EvaNadine
mondays for me are slave back to the grind...
1:46 pm
EvaNadine
though, at least i like my coworkers :)
1:46 pm
stidmama
glad to hear the work environment is pleasant. I like most of the students in my microbiology class -- I self-select away from the others! LOL
1:47 pm
EvaNadine
microbiology. *shudders*
1:48 pm
stidmama
it's not horrible, it's just brand-new to me and so very steep learning curve. I am going to start relaxing on trying to "get it all" -- which won't happen and start focusing on my project which is compost. Which I DO understand.
1:49 pm
EvaNadine
i barely passed "disney" bio in college.
(thats what the bio majors called it because it was so easy)
1:49 pm
stidmama
I don't think I will get NBT without the list. I am past halfway now though
1:49 pm
EvaNadine
i have 17 left...
but ive been chipping away at it all day...heh
1:50 pm
stidmama
i wouldn't mind "disney" bio, took this full-time program because it fulfills ALL the remaining science requirements I need to teach elementary school, leaving me with jsut a few credits in things I enjoy before I go for my master's
1:50 pm
stidmama
okay, list in hand...
1:50 pm
EvaNadine
masters....
i need to go get me one of those...
1:51 pm
stidmama
*facepalm* oh man... glad I didn
1:51 pm
stidmama
didn't ask for the eye words!
1:51 pm
EvaNadine
heh, *I* did.
*rolls eyes at self*
1:52 pm
stidmama
My choice was a year of post-bac getting classes like this one and then a year of post-bac teacher certification; or this year and then two years for a master's. Higher pay, more preparation for teaching; it was a no-brainer
1:52 pm
EvaNadine
true!
a little hard work goes a long way. :)
1:53 pm
stidmama
or a lot of hard work... rofl
1:54 pm
stidmama
ooh. I got the last E words! grey tiles!
1:55 pm
stidmama
first D-eye 5 please?
1:55 pm
EvaNadine
better than me! im still missing one from the top E
1:55 pm
EvaNadine
alas, i have it not
1:56 pm
stidmama
oh well... the top E you probably want the goose-down looking word
1:56 pm
EvaNadine
ahh, just dound it, though...
ends in the end of life
1:56 pm
EvaNadine
yes, thanks!
1:57 pm
EvaNadine
13 words left to go...
1:57 pm
stidmama
hm. down to 15. about time for me to head out.
1:58 pm
stidmama
Nice to see you again, EvaN. I miss our carefree days when I was new to babbling and we were on a lot at the same time.
1:58 pm
Gadget
This grid bites
1:59 pm
stidmama
(((Gadget))) there, there. at least it's short! See you-all another time. *poof*
2:00 pm

2:07 pm

2:12 pm
redturtlehead
Afternoon.. KJE, its today that Joe Biden is on Ellen...as you can tell, I am watching.
2:13 pm
kje
ty, red, will watch.... i think she comes on here at 3 (212 now)... enjoying your day off?
2:13 pm
redturtlehead
I have a dilemma that I need some assistnace with...
2:13 pm
redturtlehead
I have had a Horrific day, starting with getting pulled over at 5:45 am...
2:14 pm
redturtlehead
I did go running though, a day earlier than the MD would have liked.
2:16 pm
kje
what is the dilemma
2:17 pm
redturtlehead
My Grandmother died this morning...and I was able to get friday off. so I could go tot he funeral...
2:17 pm
redturtlehead
BUt its going to cost me over 1 grand to get there and back etc...
2:18 pm
kje
where is it at? why so much? are you sure?
2:18 pm
nDanLia
where is it red
2:18 pm
redturtlehead
Its in NC, I found a pretty cheap flight, but I also have to board the dog, park at the airport, buy an appropriate outfit.
2:20 pm
kje
no friend to keep the dog? or take you to the airport?... really nothing to wear?
2:20 pm
redturtlehead
I don't know anyone here because I worked 40 miles north, and I really and truely have No dress to wear here in FL...
2:21 pm
kje
borrow something?
2:21 pm
redturtlehead
kje, I have one pair of jeans here and some t shirts. I got some shoes when I was home, but there were no dresses that quite fit...
2:22 pm
kje
so your dilemma is whether to go or not?
2:22 pm
redturtlehead
Yes...
2:22 pm
nDanLia
are there relatives you could borrow fro there
2:23 pm
redturtlehead
My Grandfather just died 2 weeks ago and I could not go to that one because the cost was outrageous....
2:23 pm
redturtlehead
Most of my relatives actually all...are a little too fat.
2:23 pm
kje
my aunt who i was close to died when i was a 2nd year resident... I was unable to go to the funeral... I don't regret it
2:23 pm
EvaNadine
i think our loved ones care more that we were there with them when they were still here...more than once theyve left us...
2:24 pm
redturtlehead
My Grandmother was very ill, with dementia etc for a long time, so I feel more relief for her.
2:24 pm
kje
I had just visited her a couple weeks before she died and was thankful for that... she would have understood that i couldn't make it down again for the funeral.... depends on your own obligations and what is important to you
2:24 pm
redturtlehead
I wish I had been able to see Grandma, but she has not recognized me for years.
2:24 pm
redturtlehead
erhad not.
2:25 pm
kje
yes, dementia is a hard death, red... a protracted one... my aunt had died of breast cancer
2:25 pm
kje
if you truly feel you cannot go, do something special where you are to take the time to honor her, if you can
2:26 pm
redturtlehead
Yes, her husb (My Grandfather) died last year and she asked each day where he was, only to learn each day anew that he had died.
2:26 pm
nDanLia
think about what YOU will need; if you are okay with other fors of saying goodbye & closure, that's okay funerals/wakes are for those still here
2:27 pm
redturtlehead
I must admit, I am not really up for travelling again....
2:27 pm
kje
sorry to hear that red, but that is over for her now, thankfully
2:27 pm
redturtlehead
I am glad of that, she had that wierd anxiety component with the dementia, you know it...
2:28 pm
EvaNadine
my grandmother went much the same way. i didnt get to see her much before she passed, but in a way, im thankful that i can remember her the way she was before...
2:28 pm
redturtlehead
I'm sort of waiting to hear from my Mom to see what she wants and my sister.
2:29 pm
redturtlehead
Oh yes, My Grandmother she was a very special lady. She was also a Registered Nurse.
2:29 pm
kje
what was your pull-over for? speeding? or suspected drug trafficking? ; )
2:29 pm
kje
that is cool red, she must have been very proud of you
2:30 pm
redturtlehead
I ran a red light because I couldnt see it as a semi was in front of me....warning. The guy did freak out because I had to open the trunk to get my wallet...
2:30 pm
redturtlehead
he gave me a warning because I dont have any Florida Licensing...
2:30 pm
kje
well, that is nice at least
2:30 pm
redturtlehead
so thats the silver lining... :)
2:31 pm
redturtlehead
why though must the grid be so hateful?????
2:31 pm
kje
cops in MD rarely (if ever) gave warnings... granted, I slowed down considerably once i moved there.., those guys were mean and scary as hell
2:32 pm
kje
I learned quickly to avoid them
2:32 pm
redturtlehead
MD cops kje, are actually quite nasty....they have the rep all over, I always slooow down when driving there.
2:32 pm
Pinikula
hi all...(lunch time)
2:32 pm
redturtlehead
Oh kje, you have to watch Ellen...her choice of music for Joe Biden is lovely.
2:32 pm

Hi Pinik.

THank you all for the dilemma help.
2:32 pm

2:33 pm
redturtlehead
He is actually funny. he was not so funyn at the rally yesterday.
2:33 pm
kje
did you go to a rally?
2:34 pm
redturtlehead
No, I allowed myself to become incensed watching on Television...
2:34 pm
redturtlehead
I should have gone to the one in Tampa today.
2:34 pm
kje
I don't think I can take it anymore... it all pisses me off - LOL
2:35 pm
redturtlehead
I dont like the way the polls are going...it's the Wilder effect..
2:35 pm
kje
interview this weekend with palin she insinuated that the mainstream medias accounts of people at their rallies threatening obama were not entirely truthful.... she had never heard it
2:35 pm
kje
what is the wilder effect?
2:35 pm
kje
but if she did hear it she would stop them
2:36 pm
redturtlehead
Where people say on polling that they will would vote for a black candidate but then on election day actually don't....
2:37 pm
redturtlehead
USA has an interesitng thing where you can make your own electoral college map and predict who will win which state...
2:37 pm
redturtlehead
Did you see her lacklustre performance on SNL??
2:37 pm
kje
there is some specuation that the opposite is true also... that there are people who won't admit to liking him b/c it is unacceptable in their neighborhood, but once behind the curtain, will vote for him... both are hard to measure
2:38 pm
kje
nope, not yet, but thanks for reminding me
2:38 pm
kje
though it is entertaining, being able to perform on SNL is not a criteria for election, though : )
2:39 pm
kje
wow, I sounded so pollyanna there... asg would be proud of me
2:39 pm
redturtlehead
Exactly, she was stiff, I thought and sort of not comfortable being spoofed.
2:39 pm
kje
I'm usually the despondent one about the dems chances
2:40 pm
kje
well, in some ways, takes a lot of guts to go in and set yourself up knowing they are mocking you... i wouldn't do it
2:40 pm
redturtlehead
I am quite worried. I just don't see esp after Powell's endorsement...how people think the McCain/Palin team...can help our Country.
2:40 pm
kje
i get mocked enough in babble - LOL
2:40 pm
redturtlehead
Oh I would...but then again, I mock myself frequently.
2:40 pm

I was kje, I was trying to decide the main difference in Heat stroke and exhaustion....altered LOC or ability to dissapate heat.
6:15 pm
kje
will be good, red... i visited friends at lomo linda, in ca, and their hospital is SDA and their food was seriously good and fresh
6:15 pm
redturtlehead
its cute!
6:16 pm
lil*monkey
TY red
6:16 pm
redturtlehead
I decided it was the ability to disappate heat. As you stop sweating with stroke...
6:16 pm
lil*monkey
i thought the main diff between heat stroke and exhausting was the hydration factor
6:16 pm
redturtlehead
but a few internet articles said it was the LOC.
6:17 pm
lil*monkey
heat stroke, the patient is usually dry and hot to touch...
6:17 pm
lil*monkey
loss of conciousness? is that LOC
6:17 pm
redturtlehead
exactly. But usually with exhaustion the level of conciousness is only mildly impaired...
6:17 pm
redturtlehead
with storke they are usually googly.
6:18 pm
kje
sorry, doorbell... ups guy... my order from Frick came in - yay

6:18 pm
redturtlehead

6:18 pm
lil*monkey
but heat stroke is extrmely googly
6:18 pm
redturtlehead

6:18 pm
lil*monkey
