hi sprite..I'm back after getting fireworks on the last grid (my 1st one) but not sure if I can handle 272 yet
3:39 am
MonkeyGames
There is an immensely wrong story about my old crappy one. My new good one is in for tuening up and for repairs where the enormous truck hit it a coupld weeks ago.
3:39 am
Birdeee
Oh I know those - I had one when we lived in Switzerland - love them and they are very popular in Portland
3:40 am
herinfernallady
How are you all
3:40 am
sprite
wtg nmyb! Congratz on your first fireworks, and I know they won't be your last. My advice would be: babble as long as you have fun and time, and when you get fireworks, enjoy. And when you don't, just enjoy the game :)
3:40 am
MonkeyGames
You bet, Sprite. Plus I have a skibroek that is too big-- perfect for over his other broek.

3:41 am

Hi Birdy and Lyn
3:43 am

3:47 am
sprite
I hardly ever drink alcohol anymore, because of the meds, and I don't miss it much. A really nice beer or one glass of a really good wine maybe, but I find water or juice are just as pleasant.
3:48 am
MonkeyGames
Yup, that's the most popular kind here right now. I like the three wheelers because I am not afraid I'll turn one over, and I am often accompanied by a leased 51-kilo dog, who could turn it over if she lunged to the side.
3:48 am
sprite
sweet Saskia
3:49 am
herinfernallady
What sort of dog Monkey?
3:49 am
MonkeyGames
Yeah, she's a good dog!
3:49 am

Great Dane
3:50 am
herinfernallady
OH cuddle the horse
3:50 am

she is the most gentle of her breed I ever met. Such a darling.

3:50 am

red, I know, I tried 3 times to be certain!
3:50 am
MonkeyGames
Awww, thanks, Sprite. She is kind of a doofus as well, though, you have to admit...
3:51 am
herinfernallady
Jill would agree
3:51 am
MonkeyGames
Will do, Herin!
3:51 am
herinfernallady
HI Red monster
3:51 am
sprite
lol only her people can be allowed to say that, MonkeyG. I found her to be gentle and sweet and patient and huggable.
3:52 am
MonkeyGames
Well, she IS all of those things, it's true. But that's why we picked this breed in the first place.
3:53 am
herinfernallady
She sounds lovely MOnkey
3:53 am
sprite
oh, btw, our mama-dog is doing well in her pregnancy. The breeder expects she will be able to feel the... oh dear... vruchtkamers.... MonkeyG help!... in a few days! So she can tell how many pups are probably in there.
3:53 am
MonkeyGames
Amniotic sacs, Sprite.
3:53 am
MonkeyGames
And that's good news!
3:54 am
sprite
also, Saskia was very protective of Walter, in a gentle way. She kept track of where he was all the time.
3:54 am
sprite
thanks Monkey! Amniotic sacs.
3:54 am
herinfernallady
Sprite you have a wonderful grasp of English. I have given up with words today
3:55 am
Birdeee
Just finished all the 8 & 9 letter words but still have a lot to go.
3:55 am
sprite
thanks lady :) I try to learn. But this phrase was totally new to me, and I am glad MonkeyG could help me out.
3:55 am
lynxxx
How does the selection take place Sprite, are you the first on a list of new owners and get first pick or something like that?
3:55 am
sprite
wow Birdeee, I have one 8 only, lol.
3:55 am
Birdeee
You just got here!
3:56 am
MonkeyGames
Sorry, had to duck out to dispense warm milk... back now.
3:56 am
Birdeee
and you have been busy thinking about amniotic sacs
3:56 am
sprite
lyn, we are the 3rd, alas. There were already people on the list for this lady dog when the breeder decided to go with Dana first. But somehow I have the feeling we will get the perfect dog for us anyway.
3:57 am
sprite
can you imagine me chatting with one of my oversea friends and casually dropping 'amniotic sacs' into a convo about the puppy? LOL!
3:58 am
lynxxx
I'm sure you will.
3:58 am
MonkeyGames
It's a perfectly normal medical term. If they can't handle it it's their problem *she says primly*
3:58 am
lynxxx
get the perfect dog that is. lol
3:58 am
sprite
ah lyn, you know me, I will but will explain it was translated for me by a friend.
4:00 am
sprite
oh lol, sorry. Yes, I am sure too. There is a picking order, but I know the breeder also looks at the families and the character of the dogs. She will advice if someone would pick a dog not suitable to their style of living.
4:00 am
sprite
*should, not would
4:01 am
MonkeyGames
Advise. Sorry, biut you tell me to do that and I appreciate it when people do it with my Dutch...
4:01 am
MonkeyGames
Actually, "would advise" OR "picks"...
4:01 am
kje
will advise is correct : )
4:01 am
sprite
I truly appreciate that you do it for me, MonkeyG :)
4:02 am
MonkeyGames
Yes, it is. But will advice is not.
4:02 am
MonkeyGames
And would pick is rather Dinglish in that sentence... She will advise if someone picks, or she would advise if someone picked.
4:03 am
herinfernallady
Sprite your puppy will choose you
4:03 am

that is a truism herin

4:07 am
trisha_ZA
:)....allez gaat prima...leuke weertje...everything is great in this part of the world,,,,,,,,,great weather for new years eve which is spent OUTside,,,,
4:08 am
MonkeyGames
I guess it classes it as a proper noun. I was displeased about petrie myself.
4:08 am
sprite
actually, in secret I am certain our puppy is already pulling strings to make it all happen our way. Mama dog was months late with coming in heat, so we could save enough money to buy the puppy :) And now they are due on my daughter's birtday!
4:08 am
herinfernallady
I didn't think it was
4:08 am
MonkeyGames
What fun!
4:08 am
sprite
aw trish, sounds great!
4:08 am
MonkeyGames
Well, it is named after a person, Herin, but as far as I'm concerned it isn't proper anymore.
4:09 am
sprite
yes I think it is. Proper noun, I mean. They are called Petrie schaaltjes here... Petrie disks or bowls.
4:09 am
herinfernallady
ok
4:09 am

of course, enable lives in the times before internet, so what can you expect?

HI Trish
4:10 am
trisha_ZA
hi there......her...lady :)
4:11 am

I like enable. I get to feel superior to a dictionary every day, I can yell at it, and it makes for an incrowd-language only other babblers understand, which is funny in itself.
4:12 am

Well (*nodding dubiously and granting the point*) there is that...
4:12 am

4:34 am

Birdeee
I was just going to say too many t's, especially to's
4:34 am
kje
and i have deep suspicion that the rest do not exist
4:35 am
kje
yep... me too sprite... i have looked, but no use yet
4:36 am
herinfernallady
I think youi should be more worried about the R words
4:36 am
kje
aaaagghhhh - you guys are freakin' me out!!! now I'm worried about As Ts and Rs!!!
4:37 am

I never worry about re words. They are too illogical to worry about, I just try everything until they are done.

5:03 am

Aw just had to tell my son that if his homework isn't done in time, he cannot have his friend staying over. Whole mama speech about better planning and work that is not going away just because you don't feel like it. And now I hear him singing in his room, while doing his homework. Isn't he precious.
5:03 am
herinfernallady
So am I sprite
5:03 am

we will work together then, lady!

5:09 am

lady I am very happy to hear him sing! He did listen, he is doing what he has to do and is not feeling bad... what more could I want?
5:09 am
herinfernallady
Not much else
5:11 am
sprite
my son and daughter are very different in this respect. Caya plans carefully, we never have to tell her to finish her work in time. Tim is into immediate gratification... if he doesn't feel like it, he will not do it, and feel bad later because he is out of time. So I guess he is learning!
5:11 am
herinfernallady
SPrite he sounds like me
5:12 am

Walter saw your icon, Scrabbs, and said, "That green rabbit person is the doctor for kids!" I am supposed to say to you that he is poor Walter because he cut his head and had to go with the ambulance and get glue.
5:36 am

the sunny side of that is that you start every day with at least two victories, Scrabs

besides, to pay more for a laptop that does not scrimp is a mortgage payment or less

Always buy a laptop to suit your needs

one more mortgage payment will not make you a spendthrift

I will not buy another laptop, now that the screens are small enough to be on my desk. Next time, I will buy a normal computer.

You could take ibuprofen or naproxen next. naproxen almost always works for me--440 mg at onset, although that did not work on Sunday.

i still got gifts from him. just not everything he wanted to give to me.
i got IOUs from him last year, also, when he was unemployed. those never got fulfilled, and i hadnt held my breath expecting them to be.
but this year, he gave me IOUs for 2 things i really want, so i hope he comes through!

Springbok is like tender, not-gamey venison but has its own flavor. It's really lovely. They started farming them in Germany a while back andnow they are a seasonal treat here. And of course the perfect bb sauce is home made; I should have specified I quest for the perfect combination of recipe and preparation. OK -- Must now get back on with dinner.

one of my college classmates wrote an original song for our graduation ceremony - every year the class votes on a class musician to do this - and it was a very poignant song about moving in circles, too. because it was a top college and the song was about a son who gets into this elite world and how that can sort of distance him from his mom and other people... "...he moves in circles... that she never will understand..."
11:15 am
Atalante
can one write an unoriginal song?
11:16 am
hurshy
and what was really odd to me was that it was this kind of critique, or just looking at the downside of what everyone always talks about as a purely wonderful place, and after the song, the president just thanked him heartily and didn't really give any indication that he had noticed what the song was about
11:16 am

He had long term health issues. But none of them were incurable. He basically refused to care for himself and follow Dr's advice. So he didn't need to die.

feather - fries always help me when I'm feeling travel sick, and I mean majorly travel sick which for me is pretty similar to a migraine
12:35 pm
kje
not a fan of the scale
12:35 pm
featherbee
so now as long as i can keep on it, i should be ok
12:35 pm
featherbee
why not? because of how subjective it is?
12:35 pm

i swear, mcd's must have some miracle drug in their fries.

Danny gets good results from one I suddenly can't think of the name of. I will ask him when he comes down. First one that has helped at all. But probably expensive in th US. Hang on though,lemme see if I can recall what it's called...

ibuprofen works great for earaches, but not headaches for me. i have to take excedrin migrane to get mine to go away

Ritz crackers are great for nausea too.
12:37 pm
featherbee
thanks monkey
12:37 pm
kje
not the subjectivity... pain IS subjective... but because it tells me nothing about the etiology ... i hate it when my students say, but it is a 6/10 pain! like that means something... all it means is they need some pain med, doesn't help with diagnosis at all
12:37 pm
Madi95
rallys fries are my favorite
12:37 pm

how about the U of Florida nickname: ali******
12:38 pm

ice cream works too, but I'm usually too nauseous for dairy

12:40 pm
jnr
guess i have missed some of the headache talk...<whew> being a neurologist...lol

caffeine is kind of dehydrating - for me, anyway - so a grape slurpee works well despite the calories

JNR, maxalt leaves my husband pain-reduced but still in bed and feeling the weirder migraine effects and the nausea. Can you suggest another one he might discuss with our doctor? Imigran already failed on him...

a 2 x 4 can work too i bet, but then you have a secondary problem of TBI perhaps

OK, I will write that down for him to discuss with our doctor. This has been a tyears long thing and he has been getting help but it goes slowly. Should he maybe see an actual neurologist? Bearing in mind taht we are quite happy with our GP.

nader's main thrust is that corporations are running the country. in that context his comment relates to obama being a servant of corporations. that would be bad no matter what color he is. (nader's "colored" also, btw)
1:19 pm
Dorens

2:08 pm
Judi
*singing to Ata* BORN FREE.... AS FREE AS THE WIND BLOWS...
2:09 pm
Atalante
noooo ... they couldn't find anything obvious, no breaks, no bleeding. they think he had just got too cold and too shocked and just needed some chill time to recover and build his strength
2:10 pm
lynxxx
aww...we all need some spoiling at times
2:10 pm
Judi
That's good news, Ata. Now he's free to go back to the shore and pooh on the tourists.
2:10 pm
Atalante
he was in the vets for 4 days, just sitting on his little heated pad and getting good food
2:11 pm
Atalante
what was really funny is that all the vet nurses absolutely fell in love with him - most gulls are evil litle buggers, this one (probably cos of the shock!) was so docile and "friendly"
2:11 pm
Judi
Awww. He knew they were trying to help him. The little mooch.
2:11 pm
MonkeyGames
Hi again briefly! Just watched QI-- the new Dutch one! First episode. The Dutch have bought syndication rights. They did a pretty good job considering none of the panel members had the faintest idea what was going on. We will watch again.
2:12 pm
Atalante
QI is fab
2:12 pm
Atalante
yep! an intelligent member of the gull family!
2:13 pm
MonkeyGames
Yes, we adore it deeply. Thus we were most interested in what the Dutch would do with it.
2:14 pm
MonkeyGames
It isn't as good but this was episode 1, they don't have a Dutch Stephen Fry (should maybe have used Freek de Jong...), and all that.
2:14 pm
MonkeyGames
QI, Judi, is a hilarious and highly intelligent sort of anti panel show.
2:14 pm
Atalante
its a quiz show where you get more points for being interesting and intelligent rather than being right
2:15 pm
MonkeyGames
d for correct answers and creative answers and funny ones, independently. The questuoins are fascinatiung, the show is highly intelectual, I seriously recommend it.
2:15 pm
Judi
Ah. As far as I know, we don't have that on this side of the pond yet.
2:16 pm
Atalante
highly intellectual occasionally, very amusing always
2:16 pm
Atalante
there;s a lot of QI on youtube, judi
2:16 pm
MonkeyGames
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q.I.
2:16 pm
Judi
We do have "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" though. Phoenetically, the closest I could find.
2:17 pm
Judi
Will check it out on Youtube when I get home. Can't access streaming videos here at work. State ISP nazis don't allow.
2:17 pm
Atalante
just a bit different :P
2:18 pm
lynxxx
what was that UK radio show that went for years and years, sounds similar, always hilarious
2:18 pm
MonkeyGames
The utch did a good job. You should have seen the look on one woman's face when this guy scored all kinds of points for this long and bizzarre story about how seeing eye dogs leave blind people at strageic points during training and then when they here Greg or Sally yelling, they knoiw they're in the Cathedral district or whatever...
2:18 pm
Atalante
its brilliant. Stephen Fry, the host, is one of the funniest and cleverest men we have on UK
2:18 pm
MonkeyGames
I'm sorry I HAven't a Clue, Lynnn.
2:18 pm
MonkeyGames
Seriously that's the one you mean.
2:18 pm
Atalante
yes that one!
2:19 pm
Judi
Going to search for QI. See you kids tomorrow!
2:19 pm
MonkeyGames
Radio 5. Side splitting! As well as Just a Minute.
2:19 pm
Atalante
the really intellectual quiz show we have is University Challenge
2:19 pm
MonkeyGames
Bye Judi!
2:19 pm
MonkeyGames
Ata, this one guy just fell right into the Alan Davis position, too, it was hysterical.
2:19 pm
lynxxx
Yes that's it! TY MG
2:20 pm
Atalante
Alan is quite brilliant
2:20 pm
MonkeyGames
Just kept saying the obvious, being bashful but crude, ended up last with -25 points... whoever chose this first panel clearly gets the show.
2:20 pm
Atalante
far cleverer than he makes out
2:20 pm
MonkeyGames
Oh yes, I love the man!
2:20 pm
Atalante
do they have all the amusing buzzer noises?
2:21 pm
MonkeyGames
This other Dutch guy was too. He just fell right into the role brilliantly. Yes, very odd buzzer noises. I was impressed. The rights were clearly bought by a fan with great English skills.
2:22 pm
MonkeyGames
You couldn't possibly follow QI in the original with poor English skills, I mean.
2:22 pm
Atalante
was it made by Endymion?
2:22 pm
MonkeyGames
Sprite would like it... must remember to tell her that.
2:22 pm
MonkeyGames
I think it was Endemol, but I'll look that up for you.
2:23 pm
Atalante
endemol that's it!
2:23 pm
Atalante
I got it wrong
2:23 pm
Atalante
yes, that's a UK / Netherlands TV company
2:23 pm
Atalante
the normal way of working is bringing Neth progs over here, but someone must have started working the other way too
2:23 pm
MonkeyGames
Ah, so easy crossover! Anyway, they did it right. We were scared-- but although not as good as the original thing it was really fun.
2:24 pm
Atalante
Endemol is responsible for Big Brother etc
2:24 pm
MonkeyGames
Yeah, most peoplke don't beliveme that teh Dutch invented Big Brother...
2:24 pm
MonkeyGames
Been here almost 16 years now.
2:25 pm
lynxxx
so the dutch are responsible !!
2:25 pm
Atalante
yeah .... and endemol still produces our Big Brother series. I think they are a Dutch company but have been working in the UK for years
2:25 pm
Atalante
yes, they are!
2:25 pm
MonkeyGames
Sorry Lynxxx. It was even after I moved here. But in my defense I wasn't a citizen yet. Couldn't even vote.
2:25 pm
MonkeyGames
Endemol is very trendy and we don't watch a lot of their stuff.
2:26 pm
Atalante
you might want to start if they are doing stuff like QI now!
2:26 pm
MonkeyGames
Yeah, if this reflects some internal shift in intellectitude we may become frequent viewers!
2:28 pm
MonkeyGames
We keep an eye on TV... we have a 4 year old and get tired in the evenings, if I start reading during school terms I never do anything else at all (get the degree next month!), we tend to try to just watch decent stuff of an evening these days. But there's usuuallys uch crap on! But we keep an eye.
2:28 pm
MonkeyGames
OK, got to go-- some crap is coming on! Have fun all!
2:28 pm

2:59 pm

3:00 pm
Atalante
oh I love the to8!
3:00 pm
HarryHood
ata it's * and old lace, minus the last 2 vowels, tack on a different vowel
3:01 pm
Atalante
I've got the word, I'm just intrigued about the comedian now :)
3:01 pm
HarryHood
my Q is why can't you pluralize the ro8,50 and get an ro10?
3:02 pm
HarryHood
ata he was in that eddie murphy movie coming to america, I think, and then he had an ill-fated talk show in the us
3:02 pm
Atalante
when I get the ro8/50, I'll tell you :P
3:03 pm
Atalante
or at least attempt to tell you LOL. or guess. or blame enable
3:03 pm
storyteller
Me too. I didn't realize he was a comedian. I thought he was just one step up from Jerry Springer! Sorry I came out of lurking. I have a really bad head cold and I just finished reading Cat's Eye. I feel all cottony in the head!
3:04 pm
Atalante
Cat's Eye Margaret Atwood?

hi everyone, are we all ready for 2009? Yes, Margaret Atwood
3:05 pm
Atalante
great book
3:05 pm
JBV
I love Atwood - Cat's Eye was amazing -
3:06 pm
storyteller
Did you read, Penelopiad? I think I liked it better. I love the twist at the end.
3:06 pm
Atalante
I LOVED the Penelopiad
3:06 pm
JBV
yes, that too, and the Handmaid's Tale
3:07 pm
Atalante
the best of the series of retold myths, though Jeanette Winterson's were good too
3:07 pm
storyteller
me. to Ata. oops, I still have mt santa up.
3:07 pm
Atalante
I think my favourite is Alias Grace. And then the Penelopiad
3:09 pm
storyteller
what figures did J.W. write about? Is Alias Grace, Atwood? I tried reading her before and couldn't get through it, I think It wass The Handmaid's Tale. But after these I am going to look into her other books.
3:10 pm
Atalante
Alias Grace is Atwood, yes. The Handmaid;s Tale is *very* different from her "other" books. If you loved Cats Eye, you'll love Alias Grace, Blind Assassin etc
3:11 pm
storyteller
Thanks, I will look. Off to change my icon.

3:27 pm
Atalante
LOL true :) So what did Oscarmonster steal over Christmas? Let's have the list
3:28 pm
Lizsark
Actually as far as I'm aware he didn't nick anything - on the other hand I have been so drugged he could have eaten the entire house for all I know!
3:29 pm
Atalante
just watch out for things that should be there over the next few weeks .... he's bound to have taken advantage of your drugged state!

How does one determine the length of the word needed?
3:38 pm

Ah bless her Ata. Oscar would love to be out more this week but since we've all been laid up he's had to make do with just a few short trots every day.
3:39 pm
Atalante
awwwwwww
3:39 pm
Lizsark
As soon as I'm up to it I've promised him a beach day with my new camera :)
3:40 pm
Atalante

3:40 pm
Lizsark
Do you let Hobbit swim at this time of year?
3:41 pm
Atalante
hobbit? swim? I've only once ever seen her get her little tippy-toes off the floor! she - um - wades. LOL. But yes, I keep towels and warm stuff in the car for her
3:41 pm
Lizsark
LOL not your average spaniel then!
3:41 pm
Atalante
um - can someone explain lickety to BB - I'm no use, I don't use it
3:42 pm
smilesoplenty
couple of the p's use a y-x combp
3:42 pm
smilesoplenty
combo i mean
3:42 pm
Atalante
it took her till about 4 or 5 to actually dare go in the water!
3:42 pm
Lizsark
I worry about Os going in the sea when its so cold. Its about a 20 minute walk hom from the beach before I can get him in the warm again
3:43 pm
Lizsark
sorry I dont use the list anymore but Beach you can find a link to it at the bottom of this page - Licketys Babble Clues
3:43 pm
Atalante
whenever I'm near water with her, I'm never that far from my car, so it's not so bad. she has been shivery once or twice on the way home though, but I keep fleeces and towels and rugs in the car always, for both me and her!
3:43 pm
smilesoplenty
lickety gives you the first two letters of a word, and its point value, allowing you to try to get the word more easily
3:44 pm
smilesoplenty
words that have plurals, superlatives, etc, are paired together.
3:44 pm
Lizsark
I guess the walk home keeps Ossie warm but I wonder how much good it does him when he's had a cruciate op done already. Can't keep him out of the sea when we're there though.
3:45 pm
Pinikula
hi all...here for about 15-20 minutes...how is everyone?
3:45 pm
Atalante
no, its not worth it the angst! maybe take a towel / dog coat with you?
3:45 pm
smilesoplenty
it is considered bad form on here to go to the list before the halfway point, but don't worry about it
3:45 pm
smilesoplenty
hey, pini
3:45 pm
Pinikula
hi smiles!
3:45 pm
Atalante
lol some ppl open the list right at the start
3:46 pm

What! And ruin his street cred! LOL. Actually I only have a dog coat in Scully size. Maybe I should get him a new one
3:46 pm
Pinikula
I think those are the ones that finish in the first hour, Ata...
3:46 pm
