Atalante

poor Obama having to take the Constitutional Oath twice

3:04 am

lynxxx

why?

3:04 am

Atalante

he got it wrong the first time

3:05 am

sandyloo

wow is that right!

3:05 am

lynxxx

that's got to be embarrassing, esp in front of 2m people

3:06 am

Atalante

the guy who was reading it out to him got it wrong and Obama repeated it incorrectly. Legal ppl say it's utterly unimportant, but he took it again to try and stop conspiracy theories etc

3:07 am

sandyloo

more that 2 mil the world was watching!

3:07 am

Christine

Don't you remember how Princess Diana transposed Charles' names -- Phillip Charles instead of Charles whatever ... stressful times, and if that's the worst that happens, we'll do fine.

3:08 am

Atalante

yes! she got something or other wrong

3:09 am

Atalante

but! then the second time he took the oath, he didn't take it with a bible in hand. so I'm sure the conspiracy theorists will still have a field day

3:09 am

Christine

Pleeeese - no vowels, and sounds like the name of a sewing machine ...

3:10 am

Atalante

the word after oees

3:10 am

lynxxx

lol excellent clue!

3:11 am

Atalante

it's impossible to clue!

3:11 am

Atalante

uh oh. Hobbit wants to go out

3:12 am

Christine

Wow - how could I miss that - my dear MIL says it

3:12 am

Christine

yes, a great clue

3:13 am

Atalante

I hate having to put 4 layers on to just go out into the garden, and still come back soaking wet. and cold. and windswept.

3:14 am

lynxxx

Can't yoou just stand at the door?

3:15 am

Atalante

unfortunately no, cos it's a communal garden so I have to follow her round and pick up - any - yeah.

3:16 am

lynxxx

crosshair

i wuv scwabbs and her tasty pwump wabbits

6:27 am

KatieMcG

its about £45 but as they have it on top of wet food it lasts for ages. Probably about 2 months. Casty won't eat her dinner unless she has crunchy bits on top and Crumble gets ill if we don't use special perscription crunchy bits

6:27 am

Scrabbler

((Jorjah))---I was thinking of you yesterday, feeling a fraction of your pain.

6:28 am

herinfernallady

Ok

6:28 am

Scrabbler

My wabbits aw pwump, but you won't be tasting them. They are my babies. No more wabbit meals for Cwossy.

6:28 am

herinfernallady

6:28 am

jorjahgal

thanks so much ya'll. viewing is tonite and funeral tomoro, it's been so drawn out because of the autopsy, been so hard on the boys

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Yes, so unreal, such a nightmare, Jorjah.

6:29 am

crosshair

our poor old 14 year old kitty is starting to get arthritis badly,we have to help her up and down the couch etc...im sorry jorja my head must be in a vacuum..what happened?

6:29 am

KatieMcG

I'm sorry for your loss jorjah

6:29 am

herinfernallady

Jorjah i may have missed something important. But here is my hug

6:30 am

Scrabbler

My old bunny, Callie, was getting arthritic a year ago, and she lasted til May, when I decided it was time to let her go.

6:31 am

jorjahgal

just so ya'll know, when I say my prayer of thanks, I always include you guys, my babble buddies , because I know ya'll have prayed for me and them...all I can keep saying is thank you

6:32 am

LoriP

cross, wild rabbits were on sale in the store yesterday, and for some odd reason, YOU came to mind.... :D

6:32 am

Scrabbler

For consumption, Lori, or as pets?

6:32 am

herinfernallady

Jorj I dont know what happened but its ok

6:33 am

LoriP

Consumption Scrabbler. ***ducks potential hurled objects***

6:33 am

Atalante

it's awful to say, but bunny *does* taste good

6:33 am

Scrabbler

**primal scream of horror**

6:34 am

KatieMcG

LOL, I wondered why you thought of crossy and not scrabbler, now all is clear

6:34 am

herinfernallady

poor scrabler

6:34 am

Atalante

you can buy rabbit in most supermarkets here

6:34 am

jorjahgal

thank you herin, my 34 year old cousin, who was really my best friend, my sounding board thru the whole past year died sunday of a blood clot of all things...we were together thursd frid and sat and now she's gone, leaving a husb and 16 and 8 year old boys

6:35 am

Scrabbler

I can buy veggie burgers in most stores here, LOL.

6:35 am

KatieMcG

I once halted dinner as a child by asking if what we were eating was just like betsie (our pet rabbit) suddenly no one was hungry any more

6:35 am

herinfernallady

ohh JOrg. I don't know what to say. Hugs.

6:36 am

Scrabbler

It is cruel whenever tragedy strikes and we cannot understand it.

6:36 am

Atalante

I still find it strange that ppl have bunnies for pets, not just for food. We've always eaten rabbit, but Scrabs is the first person I heard of having buny pets

6:36 am

herinfernallady

Having pet rabbits in Aus is a tad costly

6:36 am

KatieMcG

*trying to work out if ata is being funny*

6:37 am

jorjahgal

you know as I typed that out for herin, I really realized something, this whole time I have been saying we were just together and how I should be saying it is we WERE together, if that makes any sense

6:37 am

Scrabbler

Bunny, Miss B, is off to my right, and has full run of the downstairs. She runs to her bedroom when she must use her litter box or needs food or water.

6:37 am

herinfernallady

OIT does

6:37 am

Atalante

not! Scrabs was the first person I ever knew with indoor bunnies

6:38 am

Scrabbler

Now Miss B is on the fireplace sitting next to my bunny statue.

6:39 am

Atalante

awwwwww

YAAA ITS ALL RABBITS!

6:41 am

crosshair

crossy dusts off his recipies....

6:41 am

herinfernallady

Bad Crossy. I will go find cat stew recipes

6:41 am

crosshair

darn..it snowed again

6:41 am

Scrabbler

Imagine this, Ata. In the middle of the night a bunny (named Sebastian, barely 3 lbs of fluff and love), jumps on you in bed, puts whiskers in your face, and licks you, because he wants some attention.

6:42 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, burn or shred those recipes.

6:42 am

LoriP

lolol cross. ***Lori directs cross's comment to Scrabbler and waits for her wrath***

6:42 am

6:42 am

Atalante

that's adorable! and remarkably similar to my little cat!

6:42 am

crosshair

crossy substtutes chicken....

6:42 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, the next time you even consider eating rabbit meat, you must think of me and my babies.

6:42 am

herinfernallady

We don't eat our pets unless its a Zombie Apocalypse

6:43 am

LoriP

heh heh heh, FINALLY finished the bottom row. Didn't notice the pf 4 expression. <------Lori is a genius. No. Really.

6:43 am

Atalante

the rabbit that is loved and pampered is a very different creature to a wild rabbit who often need culling

6:43 am

Scrabbler

TY, Queen of Nova Scotia!

6:44 am

KatieMcG

why are rabbits expensive to keep in Aus herin?

6:44 am

Scrabbler

The term "culling" is a painful one for me when used for bunnies.

6:44 am

LoriP

I've been like well over an hour Scrabbler, trying to grey that bottom row. Gads

6:44 am

KatieMcG

I know quite a few people with house rabbits. I considered it when I got fuggy but he was easier to move round the country in his cage

6:45 am

Atalante

I'm sure. But it's a fact of life, unfortunately. And if you saw some of the bunnies we get round here half dead from myxi, you would want them to have a quick death too

6:45 am

KatieMcG

jorjah - give yourself some time, you can't possibly get used to the idea this quickly

6:45 am

Scrabbler

I do understand, Ata.

6:45 am

crosshair

myxi?

6:46 am

Atalante

myximatosis

6:46 am

KatieMcG

bright eyes burning like fire.......

6:46 am

herinfernallady

We have myxomatosis and they are a bloody pest

6:46 am

Atalante

it's yucky and horrid and a really cruel disease

6:46 am

Scrabbler

Myxomatosis--bad germie.

6:46 am

crosshair

our wild jack rabbits were hunted to near extinction and are now portected i believe

6:46 am

herinfernallady

Rabbits not the disease. I think i would rather guinea pigs

6:47 am

crosshair

havent heard of any hunt or cull in 20 years on them

6:47 am

Atalante

some of the myxy rabbits just make you cry

6:47 am

crosshair

and our wokd turkeys are back!:)) ty kentucky for the nice trade:)))

6:47 am

Scrabbler

:-( Are the ill ones allowed to be quickly killed?

6:48 am

crosshair

6:48 am

herinfernallady

Sorry to say this but the only good rabbit in aus is one on a felt hat

6:48 am

herinfernallady

Scrabbler huge problem in Aus due to large amount of land.

6:48 am

KatieMcG

Scrabbler close your ears dear

6:49 am

crosshair

100 kentucky wild turkeys for 100 white tailed deer..nice trade;)

6:49 am

Scrabbler

My eyes, Kitt.

6:49 am

herinfernallady

Hey I love the bunnies.

6:49 am

Atalante

yes ... not officially I guess but most farmers will shoot them and most gundog owners will get the dogs to dispatch them. it sounds awful, and it is, but omg it's better than letting them suffer

6:49 am

Scrabbler

I have to get ready for hospital rounds---7 sick kids to see!

6:49 am

KatieMcG

roasting a chicken at the moment, hope noone has pet chickens

6:49 am

Atalante

one of those times when science really turned out to be a bad thing

6:50 am

KatieMcG

why was it man made ata?

6:50 am

crosshair

your a busy girl scrabbs...ill watch the bunnies..:)

6:50 am

KatieMcG

good luck with the rounds scrabbler, see you later

6:50 am

Atalante

yes, it was engineered specificially to target bunnies

6:50 am

Scrabbler

You would fall in lo4, Crossy, and never eat rabbit meat again.

6:51 am

Scrabbler

Enjoy the day, Babble buddies!

6:51 am

crosshair

lol perhaps scrabbs,perhaps

6:51 am

Atalante

but it wasn't meant to be *quite* as effective as it was

6:51 am

Jacula

Hi all. A word about myxi - The disease was transmitted from Australia by a French Physician, Dr A Delille, who wished to control the rabbit population on his country estate near Paris. The disease rapidly spread into the wild population in France and then was brought, entirely by accident, from France in 1953. There is no evidence that the disease was intentionally brought into Britain but there is no doubt that some farmers moved the disease around using diseased rabbits to control the population of the rabbits locally.

6:51 am

KatieMcG

I'm assuming it was meant to be quicker and less painful than it is!

6:51 am

Atalante

I should hope so, because it's just awful to watch

6:52 am

crosshair

nasty

6:52 am

herinfernallady

Our bad

6:52 am

Jacula

It's very upsetting to see them suffer. I think using ferrets is probably the quickest and kindest solution when there is a rabbit problem.

6:52 am

Scrabbler

Hi Jacula...I have to get going. Kiss the guinea pigs for me.

6:52 am

herinfernallady

*mutters something about tnt*

6:52 am

Atalante

I sometimes see bunnies that have drowned themselves at the beach - blind from myxy and didn't realise they were going out into the water. it's just awful.

6:52 am

Jacula

Hi Scrabbs.

6:53 am

crosshair

good grief..hope that dosent make it over here

6:54 am

8:35 am

NonoNanette

i had a tortie, red and she was definitely not a mouser unless it was filled with catnip

8:36 am

redturtlehead

I "gave my mom a torite. she is a bit scary, brings home snakes, frogs, and we have caught her each year actually pawing into bird houses after the little squeakies....

8:36 am

redturtlehead

The calico we had was the same...

8:36 am

harpjane

hello

8:36 am

redturtlehead

actually both Calicos...were very aggressive.

8:37 am

Trifioso

I am planning on keeping them inside, red, as i have fed enough coyotes for a good long while

8:37 am

redturtlehead

Hi Harp Jane

8:37 am

NonoNanette

funny you should say she was a bit scary.... mine was a true witch always hissing at something or someone

8:37 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

8:37 am

redturtlehead

Luckily where my parents live there are no cyotes.

8:37 am

jesdraggon

seems a lot of calico and torti's have a bit of split personality.

8:37 am

NonoNanette

morning Eva

8:38 am

jesdraggon

my friend theorizes that the mosaic-ing that gives them their colors extends to their brains.

8:38 am

redturtlehead

I think they are very special, and I also have the same feeling about gray cats. And there is something genetically unique as all calicos are always female....

8:39 am

jesdraggon

not all, red. i've met 2 male calicos.

8:39 am

jesdraggon

just most. and they've gotta be genetically wrong to be male ;)

8:39 am

NonoNanette

realy jes? they are very rare

8:39 am

redturtlehead

really? I always heard they were all female!

8:40 am

harpjane

i've heard that male calicos are almost always sterile

8:40 am

harpjane

the calico trait is sex-linked i guess

8:40 am

redturtlehead

SO they are like Enuch cats....?

8:40 am

jesdraggon

they have to have 2 X chromisomes. so the vast majority are female. but you can have XXY males.

8:41 am

jesdraggon

the coding for both black and orange is carried on the X chrom. so to get a calico, you have to have a cat with 2 X's, that are expressed in different areas (mosaic pattern) to get patches.

8:42 am

Trifioso

where is the coding to attack crossy's willy?

8:42 am

redturtlehead

Jess, you are so Cat smart!

8:42 am

jesdraggon

that's in the mid-brain, and not related to color, that's just being a cat ;)

8:42 am

jesdraggon

over-educated, red. that's me.

8:43 am

redturtlehead

nah, yo can never be over educated and that was interesting this morning.

8:44 am

jesdraggon

glad i didn't bore you terribly ;)

8:44 am

jesdraggon

now if only i could make my house work today.

8:45 am

redturtlehead

No! I actually would like to some day have a cat, if I could be sure I was not moving again and the dog wouldnt shke the poor thing to its doom.

8:45 am

jesdraggon

9:12 am

Trifioso

9:12 am

Judi

LOL. Curiosity redecorated the cat.

9:12 am

car.eeyore

sweet! Kitty wants to go "blonde"!

9:12 am

Trifioso

good one, judi!

9:13 am

car.eeyore

My friend's cat did that and we joked about the cat getting "highlights"!

9:14 am

Judi

Cats and painting generally don't mix. Last time I painted a room, I had a tarp thrown down over the rug. One cat played under the tarp for about an hour. Goof ball.

9:15 am

redturtlehead

Well, I have 28 left and the grid has become nonsense, going to head out into the chill and do the gym.......grrrrr.

9:15 am

Trifioso

that must have been hilarious, judi!

9:15 am

Judi

Every time I moved the ladder, I had to make sure I didn't put it on a lump in the tarp that just happened to be the cat.

9:16 am

Trifioso

my poor mom was here to watch the inauguration, and brought her knitting with her - the kittens thought it was a playground solely for their benefit. She finally gave up, cut them their own length of yarn and let them have at it. we were cracking UP

9:17 am

Judi

Kittens and yarn. Oh, how cliche!

9:17 am

I couldn't get it either, Jane.

9:30 am

Good morning

Yes, it is Bio. Try entering it again.

9:31 am

Does any one know what 'oysters rockefeller is'?

9:32 am

car.eeyore

yes, phae

9:33 am

car.eeyore

Oysters Rockefeller is a famous oyster dish served at many restaurants throughout the United States. The dish consists of oysters on the half-shell that have been topped with various other ingredients (often spinach or parsley, cheese, a rich butter sauce and bread crumbs) and are then baked or broiled.

9:33 am

phaeton

thanks car

9:35 am

car.eeyore

Just pulled it up from Google so I would get it right!

9:35 am

Judi

Not to be confused with rocky mountain oysters.

9:36 am

car.eeyore

Ummm...definitely not judi!

9:36 am

Trifioso

ewwwww

9:37 am

Judi

That's just Fear Factor, Survivorman food.

9:37 am

pythonx

Morning all. Are those the same as prairie oysters?

9:38 am

Trifioso

I need a muffin....be right back!

9:38 am

Judi

I believe so, pythonx.

9:38 am

pythonx

then i agree with trif, ewwwwww

9:39 am

Trifioso

do people even still eat those?

9:39 am

Judi

Hey! I'm down to 22. Yay me!

9:39 am

Trifioso

go judi!!!!

9:40 am

Trifioso

8 here

9:40 am

pythonx

i knew someone 20 years ago who did, don't know about now

9:40 am

Judi

My husband was in Colorado a few years ago for a conference. Went to a somewhat upscale dining establishment and RM Oysters were on the menu as an appetizer. Yak! Gag! Erk!

9:40 am

Trifioso

seriously, pythonx? like, ate them as a choice? not just on a dare or something?

9:40 am

pythonx

ewwwwwww

9:41 am

Trifioso

they come from, what, sheep?

9:41 am

pythonx

no, this was something they did at bull castrating time

9:41 am

Judi

I guess they are a regional delicacy. I'd rather eat a bug.

9:41 am

Trifioso

I just can't imagine. there is no muscle or anything, so what the heck are they like?

9:41 am

car.eeyore

12...

9:42 am

pythonx

i wonder if that's where cowboys get all their testosterone

9:42 am

Judi

I"ve heard them described as "kind of like tough liver". Even more reason not to eat them!

9:44 am

Trifioso

just....why? who looked at one of those and thought, oh let's eat it!!!

9:45 am

Trifioso

well, other than crossy's cats, which we have already established...

9:45 am

pythonx

it probably started as a dare

9:45 am

Judi

When you think about it, regular oysters are pretty gross too.

9:46 am

Trifioso

yes, judi, they are. I am a true old new england gal, eat every single thing that the sea offers, except those. just can't get past the phlegm ball nature...

9:47 am

Judi

I understand completely, Trif. I just can't bring myself to eat raw shellfish. However, I love steamed clams, but I hate oysters and mussels. Go figure.

9:47 am

Trifioso

even steamed? steamed mussels are about the best source of lean protein there is

9:48 am

Judi

I think a great many of today's ocean delicacies exist as a direct result of starving indians and colonists. Food for thought: the closest genetic relative to the lobster is... a cock roach.

9:50 am

Trifioso

yes, I know judi. and the pilgrims here considered lobsters and clams "garbage food" and would only eat them if they were, quite literally, in the throes of starvation

9:50 am

Trifioso

still love my mussels, though

9:50 am

Judi

Mussels taste too fishy to me. And that greenish color... erk.

9:51 am

Trifioso

mussels aren't green, they are orange!

9:52 am

Judi

I suppose there are different varieties. I have seen both green and orange. Most of the ones around us are greenish. Must be a Chesapeake Bay thing.

9:53 am

Trifioso

oh, man, please promise me you eat lots and lots of those wonderful crabs you have down there....mouth is watering just thinking about old bay spice....

9:54 am

Judi

Eh, I can take or leave crabs. I like them, but they are just too much work for too little reward.

9:55 am

Trifioso

when we used to go to bethany beach we used to get bags and bags of them, and sit there cracking and smacking for hours....heaven!

9:56 am

Judi

I'm a Delaware transplant by way of UpState NY. I suppose that accounts for my indifference to crabs. I'd rather jump into a vat of drawn butter and wrestle me a big old lobster.

9:57 am

Judi

LOL. Old Bay. I swear, the entire state of Maryland reeks of it.

9:57 am

bfsog

hey all

9:57 am

Trifioso

that works too, judi! love my lobsters. don't cook much seafood here at home though. I suppose I should do a lot more, so I can get really good at it.

9:57 am

Trifioso

hello bf!

9:58 am

bfsog

how is babble land

9:58 am

pythonx

hi bf

9:58 am

Lobsters have been dirt cheap this year. Now's a good time. Most grocery stores will steam them for you.

wellit's like this. i had a job then they put in anew team leader who has not said a word to me except one unpleasant one since he came on board in decemebr. if he did not need me to get up to speed then they don't need me at all. they have been hard at workk showing me just that.

11:12 am

hurshy

:( well that is not nice

11:12 am

72 Temple Owl

after they promised that i would not work for this person and that our jobs were separate.

11:12 am

hurshy

if they promised you wouldn't work for this person, does that mean they already knew he was unpleasant? if so, why did they hire him?

11:12 am

72 Temple Owl

and they are no p o'd that i went over their heads to get transferred. you see, the guy was more qualifeid than me but i hear him asking everyone how to do things.

11:13 am

72 Temple Owl

had nothing to do with personality. just the work structure. you can be unpleasant as yo like here to the underlings.

11:14 am

it is unfortunate that there are so many incompetent and/or annoying people in the world

12:10 pm

we of course the egg came first,since as we all know the egg is an actual egg while the chicken is merly a potential chicken and since actuality beat out potentiality any time,the egg must come first

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

She'll decide. The city may send someone once or twice a week to help with the kitchen an dbathrooms or they may choose to send me an amount of money per month to employ someone myself. Hoping for the former-- less paperwork.

It's called "sociale dienstverlening" (yes, the college was in Dutch). It's a sort of broad spectrum social work Bachelor's degree equavalent with emphasis on beurocrtaic disentangling, conflict resolution, debt relief, getting people like asylum seekers into the system here, that kind of thing.

redturtlehead

jmc, how was all the inauguration stuff...?

3:52 pm

jmcnrick

it was bad if you took their advice and used the subway. I drove and had a fine time

3:53 pm

redturtlehead

But how was *it* was it lovely?

3:53 pm

jmcnrick

my parties were really great and people were walking around acting like we were all friends

3:54 pm

redturtlehead

Awesome. My Parents went crazy, apparently turned on TV at 8 am and never turned it off all day...

3:55 pm

jmcnrick

I couldn't last watching official stuff that long. I got some Babble in and everyone on the chog was giddy

3:56 pm

redturtlehead

I worked, but I was rather giddy all day.

3:56 pm

lexleeanne

you silly "gids"

3:56 pm

jmcnrick

I have been called worse things

3:56 pm

redturtlehead

I think I was mored excited about his closing of Gitmo declaration....

3:57 pm

lexleeanne

3:57 pm

jmcnrick

I actually got chocked up today listening to Hilary Clinton address the state department

3:57 pm

JBV

good afternoon, everyone - jm how was your salsa party tuesday night?

3:57 pm

lexleeanne

don't go there

3:58 pm

redturtlehead

I missed that entirely, I suppsoe I was running.

3:58 pm

jmcnrick

well I am not hungover any more lol

3:58 pm

JBV

oh, haven't heard hillary yet - i'll catch it later on MSNBC i'm sure

3:58 pm

redturtlehead

sounds like a fine party jmc!

3:58 pm

jmcnrick

wonderful speech

3:58 pm

JBV

the big story on this end is Caroline Kennedy's crash and burn as potential Senator

3:59 pm

jmcnrick

oh too bad she was a sentimental favorite at my age group

3:59 pm

redturtlehead

Oddly I am not really suprised, I am not sure Caroline K was actually very qualified to be the Senator given her position on politics most of her life...

3:59 pm

JBV

she was absolutely not a political person at all - very private - and not very well prepared to face the public as it turns out

4:00 pm

jmcnrick

it is a fairly high level entry pposition

4:00 pm

JBV

the others being mentioned are no great improvement over her - except Andrew Cuomo - I hope he gets it

4:00 pm

jmcnrick

well it will be odd not to have any Kennedys in office when Ted dies

4:00 pm

redturtlehead

What happened JBV...?

4:01 pm

redturtlehead

I think Cuomo is going to get it.

4:01 pm

JBV

we are still hearing rumors, conflicting stories - first she said she wanted to withdraw because of Uncle Ted,

4:01 pm

jmcnrick

I have mixed feeling about Cuomo

4:01 pm

redturtlehead

something abotu housekeeper....

4:01 pm

JBV

now they're looking at her record of tax payments, illegal nannies, etc....

4:01 pm

redturtlehead

So she isnt that squeaky clean...

4:02 pm

jmcnrick

OMG I make a fortune everytime someone chucks it over nannie taxes

4:02 pm

JBV

that's true, jm - we thought there would be two Kennedys in the senate, now maybe none

4:02 pm

JBV

how so, jm?

4:02 pm

redturtlehead

If all these tax evaders would pay up, we would have far fewer problems in the economy.

4:02 pm

jmcnrick

(I do tax returns on the side)

4:03 pm

redturtlehead

LOL jmc! You can do my horrid return this year if you like....

4:03 pm

jmcnrick

I am always appalled how little these people pay for their nannies (because after all day care isn't good enough for their little darlings) and then don't even pay the &*+_) taxes

4:03 pm

jmcnrick

I love doing tax returns. They are like crossword puzzles

4:04 pm

JBV

wow, that's a great marketing angle, jm, you'd get my business!

4:04 pm

redturtlehead

jmc, I hate it. It is not like a crossword puzzle, not at all. I am always this close to being in violation of some tax law, soooo.

4:06 pm

redturtlehead

JBV how is family?

4:07 pm

JBV

red, we are hanging on bravely, situation has not changed for the better, doctors feel another surgery is needed but it's too soon, so we are living in limbo

4:07 pm

Kazozz

afternoon babble pals :)

4:07 pm

redturtlehead

Well, I am glad things are sort of the same and not worse. thinking of you guys.

4:16 pm

jmcnrick

4:17 pm

redturtlehead

I dont know it is probably our odd socalist marxist leanings.

4:17 pm

redturtlehead

evlet

4:17 pm

redturtlehead

Oh darn it all.

4:17 pm

JBV

i think it was something we didn't say - no one said hi to lex

4:17 pm

jmcnrick

lol red so is that the reason your turtle is red?

4:17 pm

JBV

hi lexie!

4:18 pm

redturtlehead

No JBV we did.

4:18 pm

JBV

oh, ok, then I have no idea

4:18 pm

jmcnrick

4:18 pm

redturtlehead

I think she is not a fan of Hillary clinton, or Obama....

4:18 pm

jmcnrick

now I feel bad

4:19 pm

jmcnrick

Yet her profile says that she left because of Bush go giure

4:19 pm

JBV

4:19 pm

jmcnrick

I actually feel a little simple because I so of** say hi to people

4:20 pm

jmcnrick

I will put that on my list of films

4:20 pm

JBV

and in case you were all wondering, that slum in Mumbai is actually a real place - I remembered reading an article about it, found it again in National Geographic May 2007

4:20 pm

redturtlehead

Oh yes, I want to see it.

4:20 pm

redturtlehead

hi Jmcrick!

4:20 pm

jmcnrick

*looking back* that was "go figure"

4:21 pm

jmcnrick

hi red!

4:21 pm

jmcnrick

hi JBV!

4:21 pm

JBV

the story line is entirely predictable but the characters are so compelling

4:21 pm

phaeton

hello

4:21 pm

redturtlehead

jmc, she left not because of Bush but because she is afraid of what may happen under Obama, you note her flag is still Bermuda.

4:21 pm

JBV

hi jmcnrick - by the way what can we call you for short? if anything

4:21 pm

redturtlehead

Heloooo Phaeton!

4:21 pm

Kazozz

4:22 pm

jmcnrick

oooh ty red

4:22 pm

jmcnrick

hi kazozz

4:22 pm

Kazozz

JBV I saw slumdog last saturday...thought it was one of the best movies I've ever seen

4:23 pm

redturtlehead

I can not find my last 11.

4:23 pm

jmcnrick

well what can I say I am a yellow dog Dem as was my parents and grandparents

4:23 pm

JBV

and the last scene with the dancing on the train platform - that was beautiful! loved it!

4:23 pm

jmcnrick

*were*

4:24 pm

Kazozz

yeah that was great JBV...i thought the young kid actors were amazing too

4:24 pm

redturtlehead

yes, me too. I was amused as I had to hear my Mothers complete rendition of the inauguration, THEN she gave my Dad the phone and he had to gie me the same rendition...and I saw it...

4:25 pm

JBV

that's funny, red

4:25 pm

jmcnrick

my mother is 95 and was entranced!

4:26 pm

jmcnrick

I did like the Daily Show last night

4:27 pm

redturtlehead

Well, My parents are of that civil rights generation...They were in College in the 60's and did some work, so to them its cool. My Dad told me yesterday, "Obama is "our type" of people....

4:27 pm

redturtlehead

I will see Daily show from last night tonight at 8 pm

4:28 pm

jmcnrick

yeah well I was in college in 69 so that means I am about your parents age *feeling old and tired all of a sudden*

4:29 pm

phaeton

I need a C...have 1 ce; 2 cr...cr4 & 5...?

4:29 pm

JBV

that's interesting red, I think a lot of people are reading things into Obama that are not necessarily there, he is not a child of the 60's and is more open to alternative points of view (and I was in college in the 60's, so I know the "type" - I'm one of them!:)

4:29 pm

redturtlehead

Oh jmc, my parents are cool, but if it makes you feel better my Dad was in Grad school....so you are not my parents age...

4:29 pm

jmcnrick

whew!

4:30 pm

JBV

does that go for me, too, red - I graduated in 1971

4:30 pm

jmcnrick

sorry phaeton only c is cr 4/6

4:30 pm

redturtlehead

I think what my Dad likes is the fact that Obama reads books, and likes Jazz and such...

4:30 pm

redturtlehead

Ok I will not tell you I was actually alive in 71, but...

4:30 pm

redturtlehead

I just wondered what is best online site for sales; if you have an opinion on that.

6:25 pm

Krista

Well, you are the Book Doctor. We respect your physician's credentials. ;)

6:26 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

no single answer. either you do business with an evil corporation (amazon, ebay, abe) or an ethical website (tomfolio, popula, antiqbook). one will sell your books while it eats you alive with fees and restrictions, the other won't

6:26 pm

phandmd

if someone clued TO 7 I missed it

6:27 pm

Krista

Just getting those site names is very helpful. Thanks.

i sell at base price on tomfolio.com, but have to raise my prices a lot to sell on amazon. their fees are extreme and they lie about them, too

Book Doctor Gwen

quick grid? nope

6:30 pm

Krista

i sold some on half.com...i'm sure you're very adept at it, but I find listing books VERY tedious..ugh...grid is medium, i'd say..

6:30 pm

Krista

not nearly as bad as I thought it would be when i saw the size

6:31 pm

abetterjulie

how big are they usually, Krista?

6:31 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i've never listed anything on half; i have heard nothing but atrocious things about it; however, i list on alibris, and they generously copy my listings for me onto half, so i have sold about 4 items there

6:32 pm

Krista

varies a lot..but seems the smaller they are, the harder they are...300+ is huge...most in..hmm...100-200 range? what do others say?

6:32 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i just listed an item on ebaY -- i almost never use ebaY to sell unless I have something very unusual

6:33 pm

Lindrickway

Smallest I have seen was around 78, biggest 599 but in general around 200 - 300 i would say!

6:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

a medium size grid here is about 150-250. they have been under 50 once in a while, and over 500, so I've heard. i like them to be about 200

6:33 pm

BabbleRabble

lickety: Average Word Count: 177 words

6:33 pm

nothing sells on ebay anymore...yes, half.com is pretty bad, I agree..bought on Alibris but never sold..are they affiliated with half??

6:33 pm

abetterjulie

ok, and do you usually finish it?

6:34 pm

Lindrickway

Mostly julie, if I have time!

6:34 pm

i try to finish any grid that i start, julie

6:34 pm

i usually get down to the last 10% or so, then give up 8-)

i just dont have time to finish...so I have learned to let go of the stats and just enjoy finding what I find and chatting

6:35 pm

well, i have 51 left. I am just glad I made it halfway!

6:35 pm

redturtlehead

i hope we get a big un tomorro, i have time.

6:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

alibris is "reseller" agreements with half, borders, barnesandnoble, chapters, and other big chain-type sites. they list their vendor's products on those sites, and those sites pay some kind of fee to alibris. the exact details are pretty hush hush

6:35 pm

Krista

that's my usual goal, Julie..half...wow, I missed the 599 one!!!

6:36 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

oh yeah, 599. that was fun for the first 250 words or so . . .

6:36 pm

abetterjulie

599 seems crazy.

6:36 pm

It took some time to complete julie!! LOL

6:37 pm

it was an accomplishment

6:37 pm

i could use a hint for the ne4 words. I have the one that you use in tennis.

Crazy for feeling so lonely

Youd leave me for somebody new

6:42 pm

abetterjulie

has anyone finished all the p?

6:43 pm

jillibus

book and krista, your conversation is interesting. My book about Dane development is self-published and people have complained that they can't find it on Amazon etc. That's because it would have to be priced out of reach. It's 8 x 11 x 1" and heavy so the postage is out of sight. Should I investigate tomfolio etc?

6:43 pm

forwardbyfaith

I don't need clues for any n's

6:43 pm

BabbleRabble

te 6 -- t + the bigger the b*****

6:44 pm

jillibus

julie, I finished a while ago so I can clue. Have you been using Lickety's list?

6:44 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

jull, tomfolio is really not the best place to sell one title. it was set up for independent used bookdealers who have a lot of stock. base fee is $35/mo but there are no commissions or "final value fees" or any crap like that

6:44 pm

forwardbyfaith

ty BR!

6:45 pm

abetterjulie

yes, jili. I have all of them but the last two p6's.

6:45 pm

jillibus

I see, book. Have you any suggestions?

6:45 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

jill, does your book have an isbn?

6:45 pm

BabbleRabble

pr 5 -- add consumed

6:45 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

if not, i can help you get it onto amazon anyway . . .

6:46 pm

the last pa6 is the pa**** of tiny feet. The ones before it have different last letters

6:46 pm

BabbleRabble

pr 7 -- p + diamondback *****snake

Yes, it has an isbn, gwen

6:46 pm

i have the tiny feet one. will figure out the consume one. clue for third?

6:47 pm

then i don't quite follow your amazon problem. whay is shipping so expensive?

6:47 pm

nancethefan

hey & hugsssssssssss again y'all

6:47 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

t + a swollen finger is inf***ed + vowel

6:47 pm

jillibus

julie, just change the last letter of the tiny feet -- one is a vowel and the other a consonant

6:48 pm

Krista

Jilli, I have heard others say that about Amazon, too...I'm trying to remember someone very recently...they were finding it impossible to get their book "out there" without Amazon..

6:48 pm

BabbleRabble

te 5-- add choo choo ***in

6:49 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

amazon is actually a good sitein the sense that everyone -- Everyone -- has heard of it. they are very crappy in other ways though!

6:49 pm

Krista

I didn't know you wrote a book, Jilli! How impressive.

6:49 pm

jillibus

gwen, as I said, the book is heavy and a size large enough that it can't go as a "small packet" from Canada, so postage can be almost $20 per book!

6:49 pm

abetterjulie

wait, jili! ack! those are pr words, I am missing the pa words, lol!

6:49 pm

oh, this is a picture of what my five month old blue point siamese looks like except he is only 5 months old

Krista

There was a documentary about independent booksellers recently..made me feel guilty for ever using the big names..not that I am stopping, but...

6:50 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

jill, i forgot you're in canada with no cheap rates for books. if you have a friend in the US then you set up an agreement for them to ship stuff to US customers for you

6:50 pm

6:51 pm

nice to see you, Nance

nvm, jili. I am confusing myself. lol.

6:52 pm

nancethefan

hope you don't mind the nickname - if so, let me know & i won't use it again

6:53 pm

BabbleRabble

if you are talking to me, even hey will work

6:53 pm

jillibus

gwen, it can't be done in a smaller size -- lots of pedigree charts and things which would be unreadable smaller. It's very specialised.

6:53 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

that's good -- and i understand about how hard it is to ship a big book. no easy solution to that one. sometimes i offer to split the diff with a customer: they pay half of the necessary extra for sshipping, and i pay half

6:53 pm

nancethefan

lol babble

do the charts as fold-outs maybe
