TY MRP. how are you this lovely rainy night?
2:23 am
mrpresident
things are quiet! before the storm of moving! we are relaxing tonight and packing tomorrow and sunday
2:25 am
mrpresident
rain is a blessing, but not when moving LOL! how about you?
2:25 am
lynxxx
ugh, not nice. You probably still have stuff unpacked from last move! Are you having another open day this weekend as well - or maybe that has been resolved?
2:26 am
mrpresident
well, today a lady came through on a private appointment, she filled in an application and looks like she handed over a cheque for a deposit, but we can't be certain cause the agent hasn't told us anything yet.
Tomorrow is still open house and they will just have to walk around the boxes!
2:26 am
mrpresident
we have a whole garage of stuff that wasn't unpacked!
2:27 am
lynxxx
I'll keep my fingers crossed the 'lady' comes through - one less headache
2:28 am
mrpresident
if we only have to pay 2-3 weeks double rent, will be more than happy with that!
2:29 am
mrpresident
oh lynxx, have you seen that news about the ABC childcare centres??
2:30 am
mrpresident
the government is bailing them out till the end of the year, then they are closing.
That is a hell of a lot of people without childcare for next year.
2:31 am
lynxxx
I did, they didn't seem to have a good reputation beforehand. You wonder if they did some fiddling wiuth the books when they 'listed'. Good that the govt going to bail them out - a heap of childcare at risk
2:32 am
lynxxx
Oh - I didn't hear till the end of the year only. Not long! That's a huge issue
2:33 am
mrpresident
it sounds very suss, cause the guy who owns it is very strange... he did it all for the money.
Childcare is more than about money and he was a ratbag
2:33 am
lynxxx
Mmmm my posts don't seem to be getting thru very well
2:33 am
mrpresident
yes, they are putting in $22 million which will cover 2 months only.
2:35 am
mrpresident
i am not sure if it would be a good/bad idea for the government to take over childcare in this country. It would certainly open their eyes to the plight of the working parents
2:36 am
lynxxx
Aren't they a publicly listed company now?
2:37 am
mrpresident
I chose not to work a regular hours job, cause I want to care for my kids, but there are many many that don't have the choices I do.
ABC centres pushed the price of childcare over the top.
2:37 am
mrpresident
they are publicly listed, but haven't been active on the stockmarket for at least 6 months. their trading was suspended
2:40 am
lynxxx
Mmmm - very very suss. Such a vital 'industry' now, I hope the govt can at least be a caretaker until all those centres can be taken over. It would cause chaos!
2:42 am

I've only nibbled so far. Thus it is good. Poopy comes late methinks.
3:02 am

with some grids we know right away, but mostly it isn't until the last run, lol.
3:03 am

I think it is interesting that re6/24 is in the grid while the next life is today's icon theme.

These letters look doable, but I'm always optimistic at the start. :D

Hello there - just got started, this grid looks okay.

it is quite nice, then the wall ... but not too bad
3:33 am
Haz1558
I'll enjoy the bit before the wall!
3:42 am
mrpresident
I just watched 'signature dish' and it was the most amazing thing I had seen!
I reckon it would cost about 200 pound in a restaurant though! LOL
Salmon mousse.... amazing
3:42 am
Haz1558
You just need to say salmon and I'm sold.
3:44 am
mrpresident
salmon is my fave fish and my son is addicted to sushi salmon :)
3:45 am
Haz1558
And it's good for you. Usually the food you love comes with health warnings.
3:45 am
mrpresident
when I was losing weight, I ate salmon every night with spinach.
3:46 am
mrpresident
love the stuff!
3:46 am
Haz1558
I can't imagine you ever needing to lose weight!
3:47 am
Haz1558
Or was the salmon a healthy way to keep your weight stable?
3:47 am
mrpresident
oh haz! thanks darling, but I did need to after one treatment that I had with prednisone... it was just an aweful drug
3:48 am
Haz1558
It's a type of steroid? I've heard husband talking about it.
3:48 am
Guardian
it causes massive weight gain, mood swings and hirsuteness??(sp)
3:48 am
mrpresident
it is like steroid... I was having a big dose too, so hated it after 6 months, and I ballooned from it
3:48 am

Hello, back. Morning Haz
3:48 am

hairiness
3:49 am

3:49 am
Haz1558
Good morning/evening lynxxx.
3:50 am
mrpresident
well gaurdian, i was having radiotherapy at the time, so hairiness was not the problem!! I lost alot of that!
And moon face is exactly what if was like
3:50 am
Haz1558
Well, mrp, the salmon and spinach seem to have done the trick.
3:50 am
mrpresident
I think I grew some balls though! LOL
3:52 am
Guardian
sorry you went through that Mr P, glad it's all behind you now
3:52 am
mrpresident

breakfast was greens and beans

I am enjoying videos on youtube! trying to get lickety to put videos back into fireworks!
we found one, but it is a parody/spoof of david attenborough with swear words... but funny as heck

You can't mess with Sir David Attenborough. It's against the Law of England.

ok, found another one... the two presidential candidates... doing a dance off! that is the one going up
4:03 am
Haz1558
mrpresident, has Lickety ever seen the Creature Comforts segments on youtube? Same animators as with Wallace and Grommit, putting people's words into animals' mouths.
4:04 am
mrpresident
so if you are expert... hold off on fireworks for a little bit... video coming on
4:04 am
mrpresident
he hasn't seen it, will go check it out!
4:04 am
Haz1558
Don't put any pressure on him, though, there is a move to be thought of first!
4:05 am
mrpresident
haz, he is lying next to me, music blaring... trying to impress his son with youtube videos that are highly inappropriate!
need to divert his attention
4:05 am
Haz1558
Okay, permission granted!
4:05 am
mrpresident
the only pressure is.... not to smother him with a pillow!
4:07 am
Haz1558
No, don't do that. You'd have a horde of listless (not by choice) babblers on your back.
4:08 am
mrpresident
ah, time to start bribing then??
4:09 am
Haz1558
I'll leave it up to you to decide how to cope with him. But be gentle!
4:10 am
mrpresident
Haz, if you knew the words coming out of his mouth right now... you would be slapping him up the side of the head and getting the poison from the top shelf!
apparently, youtube has changed something so he can't upload videos

4:30 am
Haz1558
Just make sure you've got your innocent face on afterwards.

6:36 am
LoriP
Addiction should not be educational.
6:36 am
crosshair

Haz1558
I'm not addicted, though.
6:37 am
crosshair

6:37 am
Haz1558
Good morning Jacula, or should I say, good afternoon? Good holiday?
6:37 am
crosshair
i know,you can quit anytime right haz?
6:38 am
Jacula
Hello Haz. The holiday was good thanks. We're going back again over Christmas.
6:38 am
oodleberry
hee hee just read that cross
6:38 am
Haz1558
Good, glad you enjoyed it better than the te4/4 time.
6:39 am
Jacula
Lol, yes, Haz!
6:39 am
Haz1558
Let's face it, you managed to stay the full time, that's got to be an improvement!
6:40 am
Jacula
Well, a nice warm chalet is a whole lot different from a drafty te4, Haz.
6:40 am
Haz1558
You're so right. And what's with the American drafty?
6:41 am
Haz1558
Have you gone over to the dark side?
6:41 am
Jacula
draughty. Sorry! Was multi-tasking.
6:41 am
Haz1558
I was worried there.
6:41 am
crosshair
now thats much better right as a trivet,pip,pip,half of six and all that rot:))
6:43 am
oodleberry
ok drafty and draughty? don,t see the dif... but never saw draughty before
6:43 am
Jacula
What a pity I can't enter words into Babble just by thinking them. I'm going to need my hands for various chores and some cooking. Will have to take another break soon.
6:43 am
crosshair
i notice that my part of the family o,er there dont say "cheerio" anymore just "cheers"
6:44 am
crosshair
i have a speak and type program that you would love jacula:)
6:44 am
Haz1558
I would still say cheerio.
6:45 am
Jacula
Sounds very useful, crossy.
6:46 am
crosshair
my grammy turns 100 today she still lives in her own little place in cornwall 2 artificial hips,deaf as a post but still make yer own yorkie pudding;))
6:46 am
Jacula
How do those speak and type programs cope with accents? Broad Glaswegian, for instance?
6:46 am
Haz1558
I dinna ken, hen.
6:46 am
Anniebrook
Happy Birthday to Crossy"s grammy!!!!
6:46 am
crosshair
you can adjust it for accents jacula
6:46 am
crosshair
it learns from you
6:46 am
Jacula
Exactly Haz.
6:47 am
crosshair
though if its too salty it may have problems
6:47 am
NonoNanette
good morning babblers :)
6:47 am
Haz1558
It's not just a case of accent, if dialect words come into play I could foresee problems.
6:47 am
crosshair
it called "dragon speaking naturally"
6:47 am
Jacula
Hello Nono.
6:47 am
crosshair
brb have to make offsprings lunch
6:47 am
Anniebrook
hi nono
6:48 am
Haz1558
Hello Nono.
6:48 am
oodleberry
hi nono
6:48 am
Jacula
The results could be hilarious, Haz.
6:48 am
NonoNanette
been her maybe 10 minutes and havent stopped typing in words yet
6:48 am
Haz1558
I know. I have visions of the computer self-combusting.
6:49 am
Jacula
Spellcheckers yield some amusing results. I remember us typing a set piece at college which was about a holiday to Tivoli. The spellchecker suggested 'shovel' as an alternative to 'Tivoli'.
6:50 am
Haz1558
The mind boggles.
6:50 am
Jacula
I wonder if spellcheckers recognise 'boggles'?
6:51 am
Haz1558
Just tired bongles in word and it gives boggles as a suggested alternative.
6:51 am
Jacula
Just went into word and did a spellcheck. It does, at least on UK version. It's not something I ever use.
6:52 am
Jacula
(Spellcheck, that is.)
6:53 am
Jacula
The trouble with spellcheck is that it doesn't know if you've misstyped if the word is still a real one, e.g. ties instead of tries.
6:53 am
Haz1558
It's annoying when it won't recognise place names etc. And you're right, context matters.
6:54 am
Jacula
..Or the common letter opening error - 'Dead Sir' instead of 'Dear Sir'.
6:54 am
Jacula
Haz - It always wants to put another 'b' into the name of my village.
6:54 am
oodleberry
Doesn't your program allow you to add the word?
6:55 am
Haz1558
I love the Dead Sir.
6:55 am
Jacula
Very common typing error, that, Haz.
6:55 am
Haz1558
It probably does, oodle, but why fix something when you can grumble about it instead?
6:56 am
oodleberry
oh i see.. that's much better ;-)
6:56 am
Jacula
oodle - I never use spellcheck. Having been a proofreader, I prefer to trust my eyes.
6:57 am
Haz1558
Jacula, I nearly wept at the sight of a van claiming to sell greeting cards and stationary.
6:57 am
crosshair
this speak and type program is exellent.up here we say toronto "toranna" and you can teach the program to type the word correctly regardless of what our mush mouth sounds like:)
6:57 am
oodleberry
well I'm impressed... Jacula
6:58 am
crosshair
though my voice sounds like a fog horn so i wont use it this my better half crawls out of the sack for the day
6:58 am
Haz1558
Anyway, must take a quick break to get the paper. Nice to see you in daylight, Jac! See you later.
6:58 am
Jacula
Haz, LOL! One of our local bus companies has wanted its vehicles to become paper and envelopes before passengers can stand for many years now.
6:59 am
Jacula
'Bye Haz. 5 more minutes for me and then back to work with me.
6:59 am
crosshair
crossy want a double decker bus! that would turn heads on the streets here
7:06 am
oodleberry
it never fails even if I don't know the amount of the words in the puzzle I always start getting clues at 50%
7:08 am
oodleberry
um that didn't make sense... I go to lickety at 59%

7:10 am
wildcat17
same here jac!
7:12 am
FMitch
Babble is the refuge from doing lots of other stuff - Hi all :)
7:12 am
Anniebrook
Hi FM!
7:13 am
EvaNadine
yes, i should be doing work...heh
7:13 am
FMitch
Hi there Annie, wild, Jacs, EvaN et al happy Friday!
7:14 am
FMitch
Been working since 8am so I'm taking a quick babble break.
7:14 am
Dorens
morning all
7:14 am
wildcat17
hi dorens
7:14 am
Anniebrook
morning, Dorens
7:15 am
FMitch
Nice grid for a Friday too!
Hi Dorens
7:16 am
Dorens
wish it were a bit smaller... i have to drive to boston in an hour, and it can be a long ride
7:16 am
wildcat17
k gotta run bbl
7:17 am
Anniebrook
Dorens, how long is the ride?
7:17 am
Dorens
really depends on traffic.. average four hours without a stop
7:18 am
oodleberry
bbbye wild for me too bbl
7:18 am
FMitch
Thats quite a drive.
7:19 am
Dorens
fortunately i have a very comfortable car and enjoy audio books for the ride. and it is worth it to visit with my granddaughter
7:19 am
Anniebrook
Dorens, For some reason I thought it was 6 hours. It is still a long drive.
7:20 am
Dorens
when there is bad traffic, which can happen often, it can be. Last month it was.... all the people going up to New Hampshire for the foliage, etc. and I went on a three day weekend... so friday took over six hours. disgusting
7:21 am
Anniebrook
dorens, 6 hours is way too long...hope you stopped along the way to regroup
7:21 am
FMitch
Are you there for the weekend or longer Dorens?
7:22 am
Dorens
just the weekend... my son and daughter in law have bought a house and are packing, but he is away for the weekend speaking at some conference, so I will visit with Phoebe and help Liz with some packing. hope to take her to meet Vicuna at her art show tomorrow
7:23 am
FMitch
sounds great all round :)
7:23 am
Dorens
yup annie, i can do four hours with no stop, but any longer than that is insane
7:23 am
Anniebrook
dorens, how lovely..
7:23 am
Dorens
as long as there is no traffic on the roads, I hate stop and go stuff, but do enjoy driving on an open road
7:24 am
FMitch
I want to come with you and meet Vi!!
7:24 am
Dorens
quick, fly on over, the two of you!
7:24 am
Anniebrook
I once drove my daughter back to college ( 4 hours) and then back home (4 hours) but I was much younger then
7:24 am
FMitch
Haz!!! How lovely to see you :)
7:25 am
Jacula
Hello again, Haz.
7:25 am
Haz1558
Hello there! Just back from a quick walk - quite windy out there and it's to get worse tonight.
7:25 am
Haz1558
A trip to Vi's art show sounds much nicer.
7:25 am
FMitch
Unfortunately the babble jet is in for servicing this w/e :(
7:25 am
Haz1558
Hello Jacula!
7:25 am
Dorens
oh no, would have been delightful... you could have brought jac as well
7:26 am
FMitch
We have sun today instead of the grey of the last 4 or 5 days.
7:26 am
Haz1558
Two minutes - have to shift cars.
7:26 am
Dorens
hmh! think you sent the grey over here then.
7:27 am
FMitch
sorry Dorens but I needed to see some sun it has been so miserable and wet.
7:28 am
Dorens
fm with your icon, i always think of sun when you're here
7:29 am
FMitch
It cheers me up too :)
7:29 am
FMitch
Like Aloys, always makes me smile.
7:30 am
FMitch
OK time to bring the monkeys in as I am obviously getting desperate when trying words like sleeb!!
7:31 am
Haz1558
Being the sort of rest you get with a stuffed up nose?
7:31 am
Dorens
yes, and since my plan is to leave in an hour, i need to find another 152 words!
7:32 am
Jacula
One word to go, listless.
7:32 am
FMitch
Tsk don't you hate that - I was just feeling pretty good about having 60 left!
7:32 am
Dorens
i will most def need list today.. but not until i'm halfway. go, jac!
7:33 am
Dorens
ok, go fMitch as well
7:33 am
Jacula
Smugness abounds here, FM.:D At least it will when I find my o7.
7:34 am
FMitch
I'll get there in the end but still have work to do.
Haz I have a courier coming this afternoon shall we predict ratings now? *grin*
7:35 am
FMitch
lol Jacs, I remember seeing a post by Lori much earlier saying that is was a silly word sor something along those lines
7:35 am
Haz1558
I say a 6.
7:35 am
Jacula
I think it must be 'opposite of in' + something.
7:36 am
EvaNadine
ooh! i found OU7!
7:36 am
FMitch
A 6 - that high, I think it will be the nice bloke that usually turns up with this Co, 4 would be being generous.
7:36 am
Jacula
Well done, EvaN.
7:37 am
Haz1558
If he's nice, does personality not give him a couple of points?
7:37 am
Jacula
LOL, Haz & FM. Are you rating the delivery men for fanciability?
7:37 am
EvaNadine
heh, i sounded way more excited about that than i probably should have...
it was a sudden burst of slight consciousness...
7:37 am
FMitch
OK a 5 then :)
7:37 am
Haz1558
Kind of, Jacula. Of course, efficiency is the most important aspect....
7:38 am
FMitch
Well yes Jacs, but Haz started this a while ago, although of course I get the blame :)
7:38 am
Haz1558
When do I ever start anything?
7:38 am
Jacula
Hmm, I've ordered quite a few books. Hope I get to see the nice delivery man a few times. Ssh! Don't tell Paul. LOL
7:38 am
EvaNadine
hints for the E above the H?
7:38 am
Haz1558
I am Mrs Innocence.
7:39 am
Dorens
yay! am past half way and going for the list
7:39 am
Haz1558
A couple have to do with joining up, EvaN.
7:39 am
Jacula
EvaN - what you do to join college.
7:39 am
FMitch
The firearms officers were still the best but I guess they don't count as they were not classified as courriers.
7:39 am
EvaNadine
thanky :)
7:39 am
FMitch
Go Dorens!!!
7:39 am
Haz1558
And there are snake-like fish.
7:40 am
Haz1558
Firearms officers probably have the advantage of a decent uniform.
7:40 am
EvaNadine
well. you should snake-like fish me for missing that one!
7:40 am
Haz1558
Strange, isn't it? You get the ou7 and miss the ee4.
7:42 am
Jacula
FIREWORKS! That ou7 IS a stupid word.
7:42 am
EvaNadine

7:43 am
Haz1558
Well done, Jacula!

Walter announced this morning that he wanted couscous for dinner, and we're on a budget so I decided to stew some cheaper meat and thus the tagine.
11:14 am
MonkeyGames
Also thus the samosas yesterday and gyoza the day before-- we're going to be eating a lot of cheaper meats for s bit and one does tire of meatloaf and pork chops every day.

Walter has now encased himself in the transparant laundry hauling bin and says he feels like he has a new home in there...

Thing is he can recognize his own name now written, because at school they move the chairs around, and also he can recognize the name iof the girl he's fallen in love with (Anouk) and gets right put out if her chair hasn't been put by his.

In Virginia: When 10-year-old Austin Smith heard Barack Obama had been elected president, he had one question: Does this mean I won't get a new gun for Christmas? That brought his mother, the camouflage-clad Rachel Smith, to Bob Moates Sports Shop on Thursday, where she was picking out that special 20-gauge shotgun — one of at least five weapons she plans to buy before Obama takes office in January.

and furthermore: Franklin Gun Shop outside Nashville, Tenn., sold more than 70 guns on Tuesday, making it the biggest sales day since the shop opened eight years ago. Guns & Gear in Cheyenne, Wyo., also set a one-day sales record on Tuesday, only to break that mark on Wednesday.
Stewart Wallin, owner of Get Some Guns in the Salt Lake City suburb of Murray, Utah, said he sold nine assault weapons the day after Obama was elected. That same day, the gun store Cheaper Than Dirt! in Fort Worth, Texas, sold $101,000 worth of merchandise, shattering its single-day sales record, store owner DeWayne Irwin said.
One Georgia gun shop advertised an "Obama sale" on an outdoor sign, but the owner took it down after people complained that the shop appeared to be issuing a call to violence against the country's first black leader.

Point of information - ul6 is neither a city nor a county in Ireland - it's one of the four ancient provinces along with Munster, Leinster and Connaught. It's included in enable because it's also the name of an overcoat. Information segment ended......

3:10 pm
AsGreen

Backward is an adjective, backwards is an adverb, same for forward. Toward/towards are prepositions. But plurals might work...

5:57 pm
herinfernallady
yep. sucks major. But at least we didn't break down in the city on my birthday, which would ahve been a $200 plus towing cost and the car not been filed up. So that is a good thing. Its not my car. Its his.

6:13 pm
jillibus
kallia, do you know about the icon themes?
6:13 pm
Kallia
used to always finish the grid, but not going for that now ...time constraints
6:13 pm
Kallia
sort of, soes sprite do that?
6:14 pm
jillibus
yes, she lists them -- babblers send ideas to her
6:14 pm
Kallia
ah ok, where does she list them?
6:14 pm
Kallia
and where does everyone find the icons lol
6:15 pm
herinfernallady
We suggest them to her i will give you her profile link
6:15 pm
jillibus
in her profile, which you can find at the top of the Rankings :)
6:15 pm
lynxxx
Kallia - Lickety had also developed a nice Bulk Add (populates his clue list with all the words you have found very quickly) Instructions at the bottom of his clue list. Nice feature if you haven't used/seen it
6:15 pm
jillibus
we find icons in Google Images usually
6:15 pm
herinfernallady
http://tinyurl.com/6z7unz This is her profile
6:16 pm
Kallia
ok, see I am going to have to get used to this all over again...don't usually go to the list though
6:16 pm
jillibus
right click and use Save As...the images go to your My Pictures
6:17 pm
herinfernallady
Kallia When sprite is about you can add her as a friend so you dont ahve to use the tinyurl
6:17 pm
lynxxx
Me neither Kallia, but its nice to know about the tools available
6:18 pm
herinfernallady
OH and BFSOG did something else too
6:18 pm
jillibus
I shamelessly use every possible help in order to save time but have my own little procedures, like getting No Blank Tiles (NBT) before going to Lickety
6:19 pm
jillibus
kallia, you don't HAVE to do anything you're not used to!

3rd tu5 please?
6:22 pm
Scrabbler
Gte the steroid cream back in there.
6:22 pm
herinfernallady
owie pam
6:22 pm
pam
I am thinking that an OTC hydrocortisone might do what the prescription lotion did--without the blocking of the eardrums....
6:22 pm
pam
I mean the eustachian--sorry!
6:23 pm
pam
The lotion was prescribed for 4 nights as needed--can I dab it in without filling the canal, scrabs?
6:23 pm
herinfernallady
Think i want to curl up and sleep some more
6:23 pm
lynxxx
tu5 like the tu4.5 before with a double second cons
6:23 pm
Scrabbler
Yep, put some on a cotton swab...or try olive oil. And the ear drum is a barrier between the ear canal and the ET, unless you have a perforated ear drum.
6:23 pm
pam
was your gig fun last night, herin?
6:24 pm
pam
I know it is a barrier, but It completely blocked my ear, and I had to do the vasalva every hour...
6:24 pm
Scrabbler
TY, Lynxxx.
6:24 pm
Scrabbler
That is puzzling.
6:24 pm
Kallia
half past the witching hour, better get to bed, got a busy weekend.
6:24 pm
Scrabbler
Sleep well, Kallia

Pam people game over it was all good. Cat took off and hid (see my flickr pics) we were ment to go out today but the car has cost more than we have
6:27 pm
Scrabbler
Pam, it sounds like you need a major roto-rooter job in your sinuses and ETs
6:27 pm
pam
I;ll look at the pics in a bit, herin 8-)
6:28 pm
pam
I know, scrabs....
6:28 pm
herinfernallady
if you click on my icon you can see them
6:29 pm
herinfernallady
I couldn't see her and when b.f picked her up she went all floopy and protested
6:30 pm
pam
I really appreciate your input, and compassion, scrabs... I have been dealing with the ear needing to have t4/7s in but since that procedure came about after my teen years, the docs won't do it--more problems than good outcomes, I guess...
6:31 pm
herinfernallady
ouchies pam.
6:31 pm
Scrabbler
It is clearly so frustrating for you, Pam.
6:31 pm
pam
thanks, herin and scrabs....
6:34 pm
flosey
does anyone have a clue for li7 please?
6:34 pm
herinfernallady
Pam blackheads and pimples in ears drive me nuts. I hate to think how frustrating and painful and irritating this is for you

30 to go but the REs may prevent me from finishing. Hockey starts soon.

6:42 pm
featherbee
he was up from 2am to 5am randomly. i crawled in bed with him at 5, where i don't think he slept much, because he was literally screaming every 10 or 15 minutes.

6:43 pm
pam
Thinking of a hot compress for my own ear....
6:43 pm
Scrabbler
Feather, it would have been better for Daniel if it had popped---> immediate relief of pressure and then the ear drum would seal over
6:43 pm
Aloyisius
hi herin! I am feeling down.. I offended a very old friend with a political email.. must write an apology, sniff
6:43 pm
featherbee
i know, i've been whining about my poor baby since wednesday! lol, sorry to those hearing it for the second or third time.

ALoy Tell her water duck sorry to offend
6:46 pm

I seem to be reasonably allied with the libertarians I know--they think they're conservative and I marxist, but we agree on a lot of the fundamentals 8-)
6:46 pm
featherbee
my dad has me on a "family" email list, and sends me all sorts of political stuff that is pretty much the opposite of my personal leanings. i just usually delete right away, rarely even read them past the first few words that tell me it's political.
6:46 pm
Aloyisius
aw, thanks Babblers.. am feeling a bit better already.. hugs are nice, pam.. yay for cyberhugs!
6:46 pm
herinfernallady
I always offend people I just open my mouth
6:46 pm
Scrabbler
I get lots of e-mail that I find inappropriate, but I just delete it rather than cause a stink. Other people may not know my opinions. And I make the choice to ignore stuff.
6:46 pm
pam
your dad might now my sister, feather....

10:03 pm
cjmomma

10:03 pm
tygerbryght

10:03 pm
Pinikula
re + si4/4???
10:03 pm
tygerbryght
or you just used the clues?

cj, I load my words into Lickety, and then use BabExp to transfer them to here
