a convent of nuns were gathered together for a meeting in the chapel and the Mother Superior was extremely distraught and solemn.. all the sisters in the room were extremely fidgety until one of the older nuns asked the MS what she was so upset about... the Mother Superior said to the group : "Sisters we have a very, very serious problem... it seems that one of us has a case of Gonorea.."... The older sister in the back of the room said: "Thank God... I was getting so sick of Chardonnay"

its not a bad grid today - i am still off with the lurge
3:19 am
Haz1558

Oh poor you. Do keep it to yourself, won't you?
3:23 am
Karys

Good morning... I was here, but now I must go and ( I hestitate to say this, so I will whisper )...clean the oven !!!!!....Oh dear, I hope I havn't frightened anyone.
3:24 am
Haz1558

Karys, I did mine last week...
3:24 am
Haz1558

It's a cleansing experience.
3:24 am
FMitch

Morning :)
3:24 am
Karys

Oh there, I don't feel so bad now then, I hope it doesn't take too long.
3:25 am
dizgrannie

shhsh mine needs doing...LOL
3:25 am
Haz1558

Good morning, FMitch!
3:25 am
FMitch

The mere mention of 'housework' was enough to ring alarm bells here!
3:25 am
Karys

And, before I go, there can not possibly be another 9 words from the top 't' !!!!
3:25 am
Haz1558

I used a kit where you put the racks inside a huge plastic bag and let this wonder stuff (probably deadly poison) do the work.
3:26 am
FMitch

Morning Haz and Karys and all (any)
3:26 am
dizgrannie

Haz..name of the stuff plz!!!
3:26 am
FMitch

There are no more than 12 Karys thats for sure
3:27 am
Karys

Havn't got a kit, so just elbow grease ... back soonish, I hope.
3:27 am
Haz1558

It came in a box with some dramatic name like 'Oven cleaner' on it. You use some of the liquid on the oven itself and the rest is put in the bag to soak.
3:27 am
FMitch

Haz, stop now please, have mercy!
3:28 am
Haz1558

You don't want my recommendations for Soda crystals then?
3:29 am
FMitch

Soda crystals a a miracle, never be without them,
3:29 am
Kazzer99

karys - i dont have that problem - my oven blew up and we cant afford to replace it so we are using the microwave and the grill
3:29 am
FMitch

I hope Lori isn't around with her nasty tazer :(
3:30 am
Haz1558

Not only for cleaning - they're great for making dogs sick (when they've eaten something they shouldn't). However, a surprising number of people don't know about them and don't have them in the house.
3:30 am
FMitch

thats one way of getting out of cleaning it Kazzer
3:31 am
Kazzer99

tazer - d'you use it to threaten the other half if they dont do the cleaning for you?
3:31 am
Haz1558

I take it you're having to be inventive with your cookery, Kazzer. What's going to happen at Christmas with the turkey?
3:32 am
Kazzer99

aah we are lucky there we are going to a friends
3:32 am
FMitch

worse than that Kazzer, Lori zaps me with it at the mere mention of doing housework :)
3:32 am
Haz1558

Good for you!
3:32 am
Kazzer99

we have been growing chilis and have enough to feed texas so its been and going to be chili forever in our house
3:33 am
Haz1558

I keep forgetting that you're in the States, Kazzer.
3:34 am
FMitch

phone brb
3:34 am
Kazzer99

but now back to the grid and then off to cook some of that chilli and i m not in the states we grew them on the living room window and then moved them upstairs to the hubbys office we planted 20 seeds and ended up with 20 chili plants - all producing away madly
3:35 am
Haz1558

Sorry, Kazzer, getting you confused with someone else. You're the lady who climbs hill and dale!
3:36 am
Kazzer99

that's me - but fell over saturday and been suffering since
3:37 am
Kazzer99

I hope you mend soon, it's frustrating when you want to do things and can't. See you later.

No rest for the wicked, work is tearing me away from babble for now. See you later :(

good to hear after the last 2 wicked ones :)
3:43 am
Haz1558

Yes, I was a bit dense with yesterday's.
3:44 am
VolleymomDee

me 2
3:45 am
Haz1558

I don't know what it was, it just seemed to be more of a struggle than it should have been. Today's is better.
3:46 am
VolleymomDee

sometimes my brain just doesn't kick in
3:48 am

hey all.
3:48 am
Haz1558

I know - it happens.
3:48 am
Haz1558

Good morning bf.
3:49 am
bfsog

i added sa4,4 (of sound mind) while the page was kinda loading. it showed the word in "my word list" but the relevant tile below the grid didnt show the word i got
3:49 am
bfsog

so i refreshed the page and then it said i had not added any words!
3:49 am
Haz1558

You've confused the site.
3:50 am
bfsog

so thanks to babble i typed an extra 4 letters today (plus the 200+ explanation!)
3:50 am
Haz1558

If the whole thing collapses we'll know who to blame.
3:50 am
VolleymomDee

grrrrrr on that
3:50 am
joshuavorbis

sometimes you've got to be careful and type slowly, or babble will miss a few here and there
3:50 am
bfsog

as shaggy famously said, it wasnt me
3:52 am
joshuavorbis

ok, i've got 118 down, time to sleep
3:52 am

Sleep well, josh.

hi again :)
4:08 am
Haz1558

Oh, hello Ata, how are you?
4:08 am
lynxxx

hi Ata
4:09 am
Atalante

not as tired as earlier :) Hobbit, however, is tired after chasing pheasants
4:10 am
Haz1558

So, you've already been out for the morning's exercise? Good for you, Spangle is having her post-sleep snooze.
4:10 am
Atalante

ah, very important that!
4:11 am
Haz1558

Very. Since she had her hair cut the other day, The Arranging Of The Paws takes up very little time.
4:12 am
Atalante

still, they must be Arranged for a full sense of decorum
4:13 am
Atalante

and that takes effort
4:13 am
Haz1558

Oh absolutely, it's just that even she can't prolong the exercise beyond what's strictly necessary.
4:14 am
Atalante

poor dear. she has a hard life
4:14 am
Atalante

more time for snoozing recuperation though
4:15 am
Haz1558

Well, yes. And heating up from freezing outside.
4:16 am
Haz1558

The spoonful of gruel helps with that, though.
4:16 am
Atalante

obviously. was she icicle-encrusted this morning?
4:16 am
lynxxx

I am not going to bite
4:17 am
Haz1558

I had to pr5/12 out of her kennel this morning.
4:17 am
Atalante

I wouldn't, gruel tastes horrid
4:17 am
Atalante

I suppose a chisel comes in handy in the winter
4:17 am
Haz1558

Hello lynxxx - spoke to you earlier. What's new with you?
4:18 am
Haz1558

Yes, Ata, we found that the blow-torch just singed things.
4:18 am
lynxxx

...hence the haircut
4:18 am
Atalante

ewww yes, singed dog hair smells nasty
4:18 am
Atalante

did you see the log earlier, haz, about my night-time adventures?
4:18 am
lynxxx

Happy to say not much at all Haz
4:19 am
Haz1558

Can you imagine having to explain singed hair to the groomers? It was bad enough when husband took to her ears with shaver things and she ended up looking a mess.
4:19 am
Haz1558

Well, that's good, lynxxx. Drama is over-rated.
4:20 am
Atalante

loooooooool. that sounds familiar
4:20 am
Haz1558

Your night-time adventures? Do tell.
4:20 am
Atalante

Silverclaw found a Mouse
4:21 am
Haz1558

And did the Mouse oblige by dropping dead?
4:21 am
Atalante

in the bedroom - we sometimes get little field mice crawling in from the field next door - no, it didn't. It ran round and round followed by the cat for about an hour
4:22 am
Atalante

much howling and screeching and elephant-hooves-pounding
4:22 am
Atalante

eventually I just decided to get up
4:22 am
Haz1558

And that was just the husband....
4:22 am
Atalante

but then the babble chat log was even more rowdy LOL
4:22 am
Haz1558

And?
4:23 am
FMitch

... and there was me imagining the new lighting and the pink disco ball were in play *grin*
4:23 am
Haz1558

I take it this was pre-flip?
4:23 am
Atalante

yep, about 4am
4:23 am
Haz1558

Oh yes, the disco ball should have been switched on to cause mousey disorientation.
4:23 am
Atalante

watching Jac try and tell all the Americans to stop talking about the election was quite amusing
4:24 am
Haz1558

Poor Jac. She should have prayed to St Jude - patron saint of lost causes.
4:24 am
Atalante

she stomped off eventually
4:24 am
Haz1558

Did red spontaneously combust at any point?
4:24 am
FMitch

lol oh dear!
4:25 am
Haz1558

Still, we have the election campaign for 2012 to think about now.
4:25 am
FMitch

Oh shhhh!
4:26 am
Haz1558

Sorry. That was me being facetious. Maybe they'll be sick of talking about the P word and give us all a bit of peace for a while.
4:26 am
lynxxx

they should start soon though, crazy the time it takes. We manage in about 3 months
4:27 am
LoriP

***shuffles in unawake, grouchy aand most importantly, undercaffeinated***
4:27 am
Haz1558

Not to mention the money involved. It's obscene.
4:27 am
lynxxx

nobody talk to her until she gets coffee - its not worth it!
4:27 am
Haz1558

Get that coffee into you NOW Lori.
4:28 am
FMitch

*Grabs emergency supplies of hot coffee and profers it toward Lori* and then backs away.
4:28 am
LoriP

G'd morning. I guess.
4:28 am
Atalante

*guards own supply of caffeine*
4:28 am
Haz1558

Well, good morning to you. (said in quiet, soothing tones)
4:29 am
LoriP

***swills caffeine in all forms, waits for magical transformation***
4:29 am
Haz1558

(I'm playing good cop, bad cop)
4:30 am
Haz1558

We'll all wait for nice, kind, helpful Lori to emerge.
4:30 am
Haz1558

And no talk of blue moons or cows coming home, please.
4:31 am
LoriP

***one eyebrow raised***
4:31 am
Haz1558

Was that plastic surgeon not able to do both eyebrows at the same time?
4:32 am
Haz1558

Good news! If you have over-plucked eyebrows, it's now possible to have eyebrow transplants.

5:06 am
Frances

Isn't aspergers a type of autism?
5:06 am
mrpresident

5:06 am
Atalante

5:08 am
mrpresident

5:12 am
JBV

anyway, that's my son - if we're counting blessings, he's the other half of my very blessed life (since I am the family photographer, we don't have many pictures of the three of us together)
5:12 am
Frances

Too much information mrp.
5:12 am
gran

as 5/10 please
5:12 am
Atalante

maddison obviously doesn't just get fed gruel every other day while growing up :P
5:13 am
Haz1558

gran - as5/10 - as plus King of Siam's governess, minus a consonant.
5:13 am
Haz1558

Could that be the difference, Ata? Should I have included cod liver oil?
5:13 am
Atalante

maybe once a month
5:13 am
Haz1558

I was nearly going to say castor oil, but is that not what you put in engines?
5:14 am
gran

Thanks Haz
5:14 am
Atalante

wasn't castor oil the predecessor of cod liver etc?
5:14 am
Haz1558

Oh well. I'll know for when they produce grandchildren and they're looking for tips. 'Gruel isn't cruel, keep taking the oil'
5:14 am
Atalante

I know the Chalet School girls are always given castor oil when ill in the books
5:14 am
Haz1558

I know there's castor sugar.
5:15 am
Haz1558

You're welcome, gran.
5:15 am
Haz1558

Oooooh! You know the Chalet School girls!
5:15 am
Frances

I seem to remember castor oil from my childhood.....yuck!
5:15 am
mrpresident

what is gruel?? sorry! LOL
5:15 am
mrpresident

sounds gruelsome LOL
5:16 am
herinfernallady

Hi
5:16 am
Atalante

I've been a Chalet School addict for years! I loooove the books. I have them all. I read them when I'm ill. I even wrote a CS encyclopaedia, but forgot to finish it
5:16 am
Haz1558

Gruel? Kind of thin porridge, as served to Oliver Twist. Every child and pup should be fed on it.
5:16 am
Frances

Hi infernal
5:16 am
mrpresident

hi infern :))
5:16 am
Atalante

should cats get gruel too?
5:16 am
Haz1558

I loved the books as well - Jo and her voice of a choirboy, Bill whose hair turned white overnight.
5:17 am
Haz1558

I'm not sure about cats. They do need meat to survive so whether gruel fits the bill, I'm not sure.
5:17 am
mrpresident

oh porridge!! Maddison feeds herself gruel then! She needs help! Cause she makes it for herself in the mornings!
5:17 am
Atalante

I love Jo. And Mary-Lou. And any time husband wants to go skiing, I insist we go somewhere near one of the CS locations so I can investigate
5:18 am
Haz1558

Is there a CS theme park anywhere? (I think I know the Swiss reaction to that!)
5:19 am
Atalante

gruel = porridge with water and more indigestible stuff than nice oats
5:19 am
Atalante

nooooooo!
5:19 am
mrpresident

and guess what.....
5:19 am
Atalante

there's an official tour route, though, around the Oberland
5:20 am
herinfernallady

waves hello
5:20 am
Haz1558

It would be cheesier than Swiss cheese (a theme park) You're better off sticking to your imagination and the text. That tour route sounds good, a bit of the work done for you.
5:20 am
mrpresident

she makes gruel with soy milk!

arghhhhhhh!! (must get her to a therapist)
5:21 am
herinfernallady

hey I like soy milk. Mr Pres what sort of Soy?
5:21 am
Atalante

oh yes. and so much of the books are the atmosphere adn way of life of that age, and you'd lose all that
5:21 am
Haz1558

I don't think gruel should see milk at all.
5:21 am
Atalante

no, no milk
5:21 am
mrpresident

haz, it isn't milk... it is bean piss
5:22 am
herinfernallady

5:25 am
Atalante

5:25 am
herinfernallady

Mr Pres what is the Soy content in that stuff?
5:26 am
mrpresident

infern, I have tried many different types of soy.... many many many... but the 'so good' is the one that they find palatable
5:26 am
mrpresident

ata, that is pretty much a perfect description of some soy products.... but I do it for love indeed
5:26 am
herinfernallady

one of the most horrid things about giving up the pain meds was the nasty nasty nasty depression that came with it.

6:34 am

He wants to watch it. I just need to be ready to work him through it if the scene bothers him. He needs to come to terms with some elements of reality at some point anyway. At least it's not that Lion King, where his father gets trampled at the beginning...
6:35 am

talk him into mary poppins? "father died laughing... never se4 him so happy in his life"

codeine is bloody nothing compared to S8 drugs! I am taking 1 codeine tab a day to get by when in pain,.... from the withdrawl

oh carlee! I am lucky, and at the same time I feel like a complete bitch for being so demanding from being sick... I can't compare it to anyone, but I am lucky
6:39 am

as long as lickety does not think u are...and ur kids are good....don't worry... u have time to make it up to them for what u've been like

carlee, we have been through this for more than 8 yearsw
6:40 am

wow. I honestly never thought that existed. My Aunt worked in a hospital that is why she had a lot of c8 drugs at home as she was trusted to care for her husband
6:42 am
mrpresident

I don't want to be an enabler. I would never give my drugs to anyone.
I have been asked to sell them, but I find that repulsive
6:42 am
MonkeyGames

Can't you give them back to the pharmacy? We can do that here.
6:42 am

I do to. I was just kidding. I would rather hand them back to the hospital or flush them

6:47 am
Marmar

about the meds, in Germany it typical to go through the med. cabinet and take all unused meds back to pharmacy, they dispose of them. I just read an article that said flushing them is becoming a huge problem for city water supplies, traces of allmost all kinds of drugs are present in city tap water...uhg.
6:47 am
MonkeyGames

OK... for me it depends on what is wrong and which antibiotic. This one was an attempt to deal with the skin condition i've had for 28 years.

evil Arab terrorist? Where does this come from? As someone who couldn't vote but will be affected immensely by the election no matter what, I am pumped. Canada got it wrong last month IMO and I was afraid the USA would too. I was prepared to flee to Ata's house!
7:13 am

Jayde - he wants to stop US citizens from banking with offshore finance houses - ie us over here! Thats all - personally I dont work in finance so it wont affect me but...

You would actually would rather have McCain than Obama? People have lost their damn minds!

I'm glad Obama won, but that result does affect people other than Americans, and not necessarily in all good ways

a rescue dog would set a good example

9:10 am
MonkeyGames

Poor Saskia... speaking of bitty dogs. There is this tiny, tiny mutant of a daschund with a giant puff of hair on its head that plagues her every chance it gets, flying in her face and barking, and she makes herself as small as possible and tries to hide behind Walter. Nope, just don't like bitty dogs.
9:10 am
carleekat

if I could I would get an irish wolf hound...a mini horse..or a newfie dog
9:10 am

I got a brown dog that looked just like TOTO from wizard of oz from the shelter.

He was awesome.

9:12 am

There's one here too! Saskis used to try to pick on her for some reason but they're both over it all now and studiously ignore each other.
9:12 am

thats why I want him to go to the shelter. Because I think he is such a figure it would encourage others to go to shelter.
9:13 am

big enough to see over wild moorland
9:13 am

even if the dog has to be a socialist.

their life is about to undergo extreme changes.... let them pick their own dog without setting the "proper example and let the kids be kids)

the Twin Cities are just 8 miles apart from city center to city center. And they are very different cities: St. Paul is the capitol on MN and was founded by Irish Catholics and MPLS was founded by Scandinavian Lutherans and is very industrious: it was the center of the worlds' milling industry for grains during the late 19th and the beginning of the 20th century

I'll never forget the gender discrimination THING we had to sit through for 2 days (in theory). The lecturers were asking whether it was wrong that in deals, girls should wear short skirts and nice clothes to get the older company executives to play nicely. The lecturers thought this idea horrendous. We all went "hell, yeah! whatever it takes!". They ended up walking out after about 2 hours
10:37 am

Yes, we all have feelings. I feel that we will all get along fine as long as everyone speaks understandable english and they all have good personal hygeine.

10:52 am

this generation is awful, but you have young people being raised by a genberation who were raised by the people who lived through the fear and uncertainty of the war, that causes a rift in attachment and in social rules, why be strict when it could all end tomorrow?
10:52 am

perhaps, sj. but rickles was one man. it's pervasive now. things change, they don't stay the same. that's the direction we are g oing.

10:53 am

what is the other 8, besides the ar?
10:54 am

it all depends on what you look at though. i mean, in cold mountain, for instance, when news comes that the civil war has started, the young men start saying, "whoooo! we got our war! we got our war!"

they aren't but when a generation lived through a hellish experience, like the londoners or berlinners during the war, it means they are less rigid because they know how frail and short life can be

Rickles was a very popular comedian, though; if he were "one man", he'd have been ostracized for his attitude, not paid handsomely for it. The general culture approved, is what I'm saying.

they didn't understand the horror of war, we have the media and the popular press of the time to thank for that, if they told it like wilfred owen did they wouldn't have had a generation sign up to defend country and home

If I didn't drink this wine, they might be out of work and their
dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better
that I drink this wine and let their dreams come true than be
selfish and worry about my liver.'

And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff Clavin , of 'Cheers'.
One afternoon at 'Cheers', Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo
Theory to his buddy Norm . Here's how it went:

'Well ya see, Norm , it's like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But, naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.'

Thanks Mad Giraffe, found it
12:17 pm
stidmama

hey feather, is daniel feeling any better?
12:17 pm
Mad Giraffe

Nasty word, that is.
12:18 pm
featherbee

well, his eardrum is infected almost to the point of rupturing. he got 3 different meds and is napping now.
12:19 pm
Mad Giraffe

Hmm, does anyone have ta7/ 32?
12:19 pm
Atalante

poor Daniel!
12:20 pm
featherbee

yeah, he was literally screaming about it this morning at 5. that's when i realized that we had a problem.
12:20 pm
lynxxx

oh, poor Daniel, he must be hurting! hope he comes through the other end all intact
12:20 pm
lynxxx

ta7.32 is plural. Black stuff and frying ****
12:20 pm
featherbee

he should do better now. he got motrin, amoxicillin, and numbing drops to put in the ear right away.
12:20 pm
featherbee

the ped looked in his ear and said "oh yeah, this is textbook."
12:21 pm
featherbee

he said you don't see them quite that bad that often. my poor baby!
12:21 pm
stidmama

poor little guy... poor little guy's mama! glad he'll be okay though
12:22 pm
featherbee

i've had many ear infections as a kid, so i completely understand how much it hurts. doug never had one, lucky guy, so he wasn't quite getting it about why daniel was so hysterically clingy to me all morning. i couldn't even go into the kitchen without him freaking out.
12:23 pm
ursh

any ache in the head is awful
12:23 pm
joshuavorbis

good afternoon babblers
12:23 pm

72 left, getting the list.
12:23 pm
Mad Giraffe

...many
12:23 pm
lynxxx

hi Josh
12:23 pm
Mad Giraffe

Is it genetic or something?
12:24 pm
featherbee

don't think so giraffe, as this is only daniel's second or third one in his life, and he's 4. i'd get that many in one year, at least.
12:24 pm
bichon

Was he able to tell you it was his ear?
12:25 pm
featherbee

oh yes, he was!
12:25 pm
Mad Giraffe

...only?
12:25 pm
featherbee

we walked into the ped's office, and he was telling the receptionist "my ear hurts!"
12:25 pm
bichon

It's lots better for them to be able to tell you. With the littler ones, they just scream and you have no idea
12:26 pm
Mad Giraffe

I don't know how often ear infection occurs in infants, but it would surprise me if it was that often.
12:27 pm
bichon


Some children have a differently shaped ear canal and are more prone. My son seemed to have one after another and my daughter hd a few. But, grand kids haven't had any so far
12:27 pm
featherbee

yeah, it all depends on the kid.
12:27 pm
carleekat

how did we make out feather?
12:27 pm
Mad Giraffe

Hmm well yeah, ear formation is indeed mostly non genetic.
12:28 pm
Mad Giraffe

Like fingerprints.
12:28 pm
featherbee

scroll down a little carlee, i just got here!
12:28 pm
carleekat

me too..ok...
12:28 pm
lynxxx

My daugher used to get them frequently too, in fact still has occasional problems and now in her 20s. They tested all kindergarten kids before they went to primary school and we found out she only had 30% hearing! Happily clears up with medication only
12:28 pm
carleekat

well..hope he is better....
12:29 pm
Mad Giraffe

So apparently she actually was a bad listener.
12:29 pm
featherbee

he should be soon
12:29 pm
carleekat

good good
12:30 pm
Mad Giraffe

hearing aids is difficult business...
12:30 pm

Mad G. lol - It did explain a lot of seemingly small issues
12:30 pm
MonkeyGames

Hey folks! Walter in bed and taught me a new song he made up: "There is a window, there is a mama, there is a twinkle star, there are curtains. It is a doggy, it is a kitty cat, twinkle star, curtains, mama daddy I love you." So how is everyone tonight?
12:31 pm
featherbee

aww, cute song!
12:31 pm
lynxxx

hi Monkey - cute
12:32 pm
MonkeyGames

You should hear the tune! Not to mention the sweet, shy little voice mumble-singing it into my neck.
12:32 pm
jacq

awwwwwwwwww cute
12:32 pm
Mad Giraffe

In english?
12:33 pm
MonkeyGames

Yes, we speak mstly English at ome although all his entertainment, school, daycere, etc. are in Dutch along with most of his friends.
12:34 pm
MonkeyGames

TV kids' shows in English freak him out now. Kind of cute. Given the choice of Teletubbies on Ned1 or BBC, he'll plump for Ned1 every time.
12:34 pm
MonkeyGames

Dang, my keyboard's doing that again!
12:35 pm
Mad Giraffe

I personally always preferred quite the opposite.
12:36 pm
MonkeyGames

Now he is also not content to know a word in only one language. If he learns an English word he immediately requests the Dutch and andersom.
12:36 pm
Mad Giraffe

It troubles me to see that more an more kid shows on Dutch television are dubbed in dutch.
12:36 pm
Mad Giraffe

That's good.
12:36 pm
MonkeyGames

Yes, I prefer the ones made here. Sesame Street for example-- they always do that regional.
12:37 pm
MonkeyGames

At least this isn't Germany-- adults are expected to be able to read subtitles. But yes, wherever possible I am a stickler for Original Language.
12:38 pm
MonkeyGames

Although I wouldn't have been able to read the Discovery of Heaven when I did if I was religious about that... but I'm ready for the original NOW.
12:38 pm
Mad Giraffe

I saw one kid's show that had actors dubbed in dutch, truly horrible.
12:38 pm
MonkeyGames

Are you over here, then, Mad Giraffe?
12:38 pm
Mad Giraffe

Yeah.
12:38 pm
KatieMcG

evening everyone
12:38 pm
MonkeyGames

Which show was that? There are a few that bug me.
12:39 pm
MonkeyGames

Where are you? If it's not rude to ask. We're in Haarlem.
12:39 pm

hi kitt!
12:39 pm
AsGreen

It's a great day to be American, hi babblers! Is the grid friendly today?
12:39 pm
Mad Giraffe

I don't know the name of the show. It's about some kid.
12:39 pm
Mad Giraffe

And some school.
12:39 pm

The gid is not outright malicious...
12:39 pm

12:39 pm

Hi AsG..nice grid (except for the last 20!)
12:39 pm
KatieMcG

I need to go straight to the pb as I signed off with a P*** this morning :-(
12:39 pm
MonkeyGames

Ah. Walter's only 4 so he probably doesn't watch that one, then. Can't think of one that fits the description, anyway.
12:40 pm
AsGreen

not outright malicious... is that the best ya got? lol hi carlee and lynxxx
12:40 pm
MonkeyGames

Yup.
12:40 pm
lynxxx

we noticed Katie!
12:40 pm
AsGreen

oooh, I think that'll be my first word katie!!
12:40 pm
KatieMcG

See lynxxx I'm an honest person :-)
12:41 pm
AsGreen

oooh, some good w words!
12:42 pm
MonkeyGames

The dubbing on Dora and Diego actually amkes them less annoying, and then there are shows where noone actually says anything, like Bruno, but in general I prefer original language stuff for him. Interestingly, though, we have a Dora DVD he's been preferring tow atch in Portuguese lately...
12:43 pm
Mad Giraffe

lol whayt
12:44 pm
MonkeyGames

Yeah, don't know why. Guess he just likes the sound of it. "Baila con los Teletubbies" (got free on Queen's Day) leaves him cold though.
12:44 pm
ursh

Fireworks here - oooh have you noticed - hardly any fireworks and it is Guy Fawkes!!! yay
12:45 pm

I only have one from the right S-- what one does to gravy on a plate with bread. What do the other two look like?

So I am dying of curiosity... not so many Nederlanders on here. Which province are you in, Mad Giraffe?
12:50 pm
Mad Giraffe

Don't know him.
12:50 pm
Mad Giraffe

Utrecht, you?
12:51 pm

We're in Haarlem, Noord Holalnd.
12:51 pm

So not so far, then. What fun.

12:53 pm

hi Red
12:54 pm
MonkeyGames

Hmmm. Like Vrouwenverdriet, or Drie Hoefijzers? I think that happens the world over...
12:54 pm
MonkeyGames

Vrouwenverdriet just HAS to be based on one of those plague-years widow towns...
12:54 pm
Atalante

we have a village called Nempnett Thrubwell :P
12:54 pm
elder

hello red, Judi, Stidman AsGreen and anyone else who i may have missed.
12:55 pm
stidmama

the first name started with "women (who do something)" the second is "three hof (house?) something..."
12:55 pm
MonkeyGames

And I'm sure Drie Hoefijzers is the result of a thrown shoe. While the horse recovered they found they like it there. Just a theory.
12:55 pm

hello Ata.

Blue, your state is still undecided ya know
12:55 pm
stidmama

the lecturers are rambling a bit today, I am getting a lot done in the grid.
12:55 pm
MonkeyGames

Vrouwenverdriet means "sadness of women", and Deie Hoefijzers meand "three horseshoes", Stid, so VERY good!
12:56 pm
stidmama

AND -- after only two days, I already have some things growing in the lab!!! *excited look* I have to go in later and count the colonies that are forming!
12:56 pm
AsGreen

stiddy, you are doing the grid whilst in class??? shame on you!! :) ***gives mama a stern mama look***
12:56 pm
MonkeyGames

Are they things you intended to be growing in the lab? Ha, ha, o really--what are they?
12:56 pm
stidmama

thanks Monkey, I do try, even if i only understand a little bit. it's easier to read Dutch than the textbook for my class...
12:56 pm
stidmama

LOL As!
12:57 pm
MonkeyGames

Oooh, they're about to interview Attenborough! May be distracted now.
12:57 pm

Awesome!!!
12:58 pm
MonkeyGames

Are you a native Dutch person, Mad Giraffe? It's no doubt obvious I am naturalized instead of native.
12:58 pm
stidmama

ah, it's okay As... this part is things I already know really well. :-)
12:58 pm
redturtlehead

I have changed my icon and mappy guy fawkes day...can you wish someone a happy guy fawkes day?
12:58 pm
Mad Giraffe

I'm 100% dutch.
12:58 pm
stidmama

yes, red, I am optimistic today.
12:59 pm
MonkeyGames

Sure, why not, Red?
12:59 pm
MonkeyGames

OK. Was just curious.
12:59 pm
redturtlehead

i dunno Monkey I dont know much about it.
12:59 pm
redturtlehead

Yes me too Stid. very optimistic.
1:00 pm
AsGreen

ok, I'm embarrassed to say, "who is guy fawkes"
1:00 pm
Mad Giraffe

Can you speak fluent dutch?
1:00 pm
lynxxx

You can google him AsG
1:00 pm
stidmama

guy fawkes was the leader of the people who tried to blow up the british parliament a long time ago... around the time of Charles I think
1:00 pm
Mad Giraffe

AsGreen, learn to use Wikipedia.
1:00 pm
MonkeyGames

Well, neither do I, Red.
1:00 pm
AsGreen

ah, yes, I could, but I figured someone would want to espouse a bit
1:00 pm
stidmama

Mad -- that was rude.
1:01 pm
AsGreen

thank you stiddy
1:01 pm
Mad Giraffe

It was honest.
1:01 pm
stidmama

it was rude. you assume that someone doesn't know how to do something without reason.
1:01 pm
AsGreen

so why would it be a "happy day" ?
1:02 pm
Mad Giraffe

But I guess honesty is overrated.
1:02 pm
redturtlehead

thats why I was asking asg.
1:02 pm
AsGreen

***shouldn't need to acknowledge, but will" : I know how to use Wiki, but I felt like asking
1:02 pm
redturtlehead

It looks fun, but...not sure why it should a wishing you a happy guy fawns day
1:03 pm
redturtlehead

fawkes.
1:03 pm
redturtlehead

THis is insane that they are not calling NC.
1:03 pm
AsGreen

stiddy, thank you my dear, but we can move on - my skin is much thicker than that. I'm sure Mad is just testing the waters...
1:03 pm
jacq

it provides an opener to a conversation
1:03 pm
AsGreen

so red, I mean blue, did you see my comment about NC?
1:03 pm
Mad Giraffe

Ah, then my apologies, assumption is the way of the devil. I'm used to dwell in the darker depths of the internet...
1:03 pm
jacq

how close does it need to be to provoke a recount?
1:03 pm
AsGreen

apology accepted Mad :)
1:04 pm
elder

1605 Catholics led by Guy Fawkes tried to blow up Parliament in the reign of James 1st. \Guy and others were caught and tortured to death for treason.
1:04 pm
Mad Giraffe

But I forget, this is not your standard community.
1:04 pm
stidmama

thanks elder.
1:04 pm
AsGreen

anyway, still don't get the "happy guy fawkes" part, but, if I have the time and the inclination I'll study it more... LOL, or rely on elder to educate me! :)
1:04 pm
jacq

hung drawn and quartered and their remains displayed in public, the celebration is the foiling of the plot and the saving of the king
1:05 pm
MonkeyGames

Giraffe, you will find this chat room to be shockingly friendly. I have never once seen a flame war, and we get through interpersonal problems with flying colors. Had a bit of a kerfuffle with someone myself last night and well, water under the bridge. This place rocks.
1:05 pm

God Save the King!

I feel for you Stid. And I know what you're saying about the class. I had the same thing happen. I think sometimes they don't take the time with the "older" students who are returning to explain things.

I think he may privately, but cannot publicly, not yet.
3:53 pm
Goat

he doesn't, MG...and that's one thing I majorly disagree with. I think that he does support civil unions, if I have interpreted things correctly.
3:53 pm
Goat

that's my guess, mab...but who knows.
3:54 pm
Mad Giraffe

What do you mean, mab?
3:54 pm
Mad Giraffe

He's saying so for more votes?
3:55 pm
AsGreen

but what about those who are already married? that's what confuses me...
3:55 pm
mab

I think he may speak prudently on some issues. He is actually more liberal than is prudent to display. But this is my opinion, I don't really know. Sorry
3:56 pm
Goat

not exactly that, MG...but that he personally might believe in equal marriage rights, but knows that it's not currently the will of the nation, and that there are more important things to tackle.
3:56 pm
Mad Giraffe

No marriage benefits?
3:56 pm
bichon

I don't know about that either, but if you are married in a state that allows gay marriage, what happens if you move to a state which doesn't? That's a very difficult question.
3:56 pm
Mad Giraffe

Maybe the state just doesn't acknowledge it, depends on state?
3:57 pm
mab

I think that people who marry in mass are married always wherever they go or are from. For whatever that's worth.
3:57 pm
AsGreen

btw, I strongly support it too

So he does it to get the nation more on his site, ergo, more votes.

sorry chatting with my daughter right now bb if I can
3:59 pm
Goat

I don't think he has any sort of thing like that in mind, if he supports equal marriage rights at all...this is just speculation. personal feelings and public politics don't have to be the same thing, and perhaps it's even better if they're not...then things can be more balanced and fair for all.

Liset was one of nearly 60 girls in that state who married in 2002 at the tender age of 14 – the minimum age in Texas with parental consent. (A handful of other states sanction extremely early marriages with parental consent: In Alabama, South Carolina and Utah, girls can marry at 14; in New Hampshire it’s 13; in Massachusetts and Kansas, 12.)

I think the question of child marriages is very different that gay marriages. Where is the mutual consent there? Consentual adults? I have kids those ages, they rely on us to help them make decisions, how could that decision be to their ultimate benegit?

it's a different issue; but the same situation in a way - if a 12 year old is married in KA, and goes across to OR, are they still married?

The New Colossus
by Emma Lazarus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land,
Here at our sea-washed sunset-gate shall stand
A mighty Woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprison'd lightning, and Her name,
Mother of Exiles. From Her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; Her mild eyes command
The air-bridg'd harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries She.
"Give Me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore;
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to Me;
I lift My lamp beside the golden door!"
6:48 pm

10:33 pm

as one who loved math as a teen - probably would have majored in it, if I'd been able to go to college right out of HS
10:34 pm

10:34 pm

I work at a uni and most of the students I work with probably would have just skipped it since they're all writers.

10:35 pm
