Hi Sprite
3:34 am
sprite

looks like a promising grid, lyn and Birdeee! Is it?
3:35 am
Birdeee

Yes - it's fun but I am a little slow - been busy tonight and so I am a little more than halfway through.
3:35 am
lynxxx

very easy Sprite, the words fall out, a lot from earlier grids from this week too

Hi Sprite! Surviving the -5 weather?
3:35 am

3:36 am

hi MG
3:36 am
sprite

hi MonkeyG, enjoying it, actually. When I get blue skies and sun, I don't mind freezing temps.
3:37 am
MonkeyGames

I'm kind of the same way if I can choose to be out in it or not. Have to go pick up the bakfiets tonight at 5 so not looking forward to the trip back.
3:37 am
kje

blue skies??? yay!!!
3:37 am
Birdeee

Monkey Games - is it your birthday? Are you why I have a sock monkey icon today??
3:37 am
sprite

just make sure you are dressed warm enough. Gloves are very important. The rest will get warm while riding :)
3:37 am
MonkeyGames

No, that's Lil Monkey. Mine is NEXT month!
3:37 am
sprite

Birdeee, it is lil*monkey's birthday.
3:38 am
Birdeee

I see - what are bakfiets?
3:38 am
MonkeyGames

More concerned about Walter... but I will sit him on a sheepsking and wrap him well in wool blankets.
3:38 am
MonkeyGames

A bakfiets is a cargo trike. Hang on and I will find you a link.
3:39 am
sprite

that will work just fine, MG. And dress him up in layers. Hemdje, t-shirt, pully, trui, vest, jas

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.
3:40 am
Birdeee

Hi lady
3:40 am

3:41 am

3:41 am

3:42 am
herinfernallady

Hi Birdy and Lyn
3:43 am
sprite

3:44 am
herinfernallady

We just organised NYE no drinking and Driving for us
3:45 am

you will survive, lady, I am sure
3:46 am

herinfernallady

We have a friend that doesn't drink
3:46 am
Birdeee

MonkeyGames - look at this cool place http://clevercycles.com/store/?c=web2.
68 I bet they look familiar
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
MonkeyGames

Great Dane
3:50 am
herinfernallady

OH cuddle the horse
3:50 am

3:50 am

red, I know, I tried 3 times to be certain!
3:50 am
Birdeee

Hi red
3:50 am
MonkeyGames

Awww, thanks, Sprite. She is kind of a doofus as well, though, you have to admit...
3:51 am
redturtlehead

hi
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
kje

that is a truism herin
4:03 am

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
sprite

of course, enable lives in the times before internet, so what can you expect?
4:09 am
trisha_ZA

shew.lots of words today so i better get started
4:10 am
MonkeyGames

Exactly. Like no4 being OK and mung not, though, it is also just plain perverse.
4:10 am
herinfernallady

Enable gives me insanity
4:10 am
herinfernallady

HI Trish
4:10 am
trisha_ZA

hi there......her...lady :)
4:11 am
sprite

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
MonkeyGames

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

I just looked up and saw you there Trish

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.

I am still babbling randomly. Slowly getting to the point where I am gonna try finish tiles though.
5:03 am
sprite

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!

5:08 am
herinfernallady

Sprite it is good he is listening
5:09 am
sprite

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

*hugs lady* Wouldn't you hate having me as a mother, lol.

Hugs the sprite
5:18 am

that is sweet :) My kids do, sometimes, but never for long. They don't like it that I am willing to let them suffer the consequences of them not doing what they know they should. But I think it is the best way to learn ;)

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.

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

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.

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.

QI, Judi, is a hilarious and highly intelligent sort of anti panel show.

its a quiz show where you get more points for being interesting and intelligent rather than being right

d for correct answers and creative answers and funny ones, independently. The questuoins are fascinatiung, the show is highly intelectual, I seriously recommend it.

2:19 pm

Bye Judi!

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

OK, got to go-- some crap is coming on! Have fun all!

3:00 pm

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

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!

3:06 pm

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

Do you let Hobbit swim at this time of year?
3:41 pm

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

LOL not your average spaniel then!
3:41 pm

um - can someone explain lickety to BB - I'm no use, I don't use it
3:42 pm

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.
