I have a question - seeing as some of you have your Flickr photos showing in your profiles. When I go Pro and if I want some of mine I have on Flickr to show in my profile, do they have to be set 'Public,' I assume? All of mine on there now are viewable to 'Friends' and 'Family' only . . .

12:01 am

mrpresident

flip !!

So if I have some in a set and mark that set (or all the photos in that one set) public, they should show up, even though my other ones will be private?

jillibus

Andree, CBC is discussing that right now

1:24 am

westford

what happened?

1:24 am

jillibus

theirs not to reason why, theirs just to do and die

1:25 am

BabbleRabble

I am so repulsed by those who govern in the US -- I would dearly love to tell them to their faces

1:25 am

Andree

they have not caught any of them how is that possible

1:25 am

BabbleRabble

charge of the light brigade

1:26 am

1:28 am

jillibus

jillibus

NBT here, approaching halfway in spite of too much chatting ;)

1:42 am

rururocks

when can we war and take action on poverty here in the US?

1:43 am

rururocks

I think about all the senseless loss of lives in iraq and feel hopeless about it.

1:43 am

BabbleRabble

I am very disappointed in many things

1:43 am

rbud

there's likely to be so much more poverty soon, too - at least I'm afraid there will. So many jobs gone.

1:44 am

rbud

laid off over 100 where my husband works, and his hours and benefits got cut back.

1:44 am

rururocks

ouch. rbud.. that is happening out here too

1:45 am

BabbleRabble

sorry about that rose.

1:45 am

rururocks

Even Law firms are laying lawyers off

1:45 am

rbud

we're well-versed at being poor, long years of practice. :)

1:46 am

rururocks

I grew up poor...

1:46 am

rururocks

so I do know what it feels like

1:47 am

rururocks

left home at 16 to start my life..

1:47 am

rbud

we own our house, so that's good. And Hubby's a good mechanic, besides his machinist job. Always cars and motorcycles to fix.

1:48 am

rbud

but so many can't afford to fix them!

1:48 am

BabbleRabble

the $18 billion in bonuses should have gone to keep people working

1:49 am

rururocks

I would have been happy with the 1/2 a million AIG spent on spa treatments...

1:50 am

rbud

the war has cost over 600 billion!

1:50 am

rururocks

absolutely right on babble...

1:50 am

rururocks

the war has cost us the economy and trillions of dollars

1:51 am

jillibus

and the respect of many nations

1:51 am

rururocks

well.. to be honest jilli ... we lost the respect of many nations when we elected George Bush...

1:52 am

jillibus

and he started the war

1:52 am

jillibus

actually, you didn't elect him anyway -- the Supreme Court did

1:53 am

rururocks

because of his father... and not because of any real threat

1:53 am

jillibus

ach

1:53 am

rururocks

well that is true too jilli... that and some missing chads in florida...

1:54 am

rururocks

I thought Nixon was bad enough... then Reagan... now George Bush set a whole new standard for incompetence

1:54 am

rbud

I've always been a fan of the idea that we should send our leaders out to fight these things out in a one-on-one fight. Would sure change how we picked 'em, huh?

1:54 am

jillibus

no use going over all that now

1:55 am

rururocks

I would go with Hilary in that case...lol

1:55 am

rururocks

I miss Bill CLinton ...

1:56 am

rururocks

(I would pick up the cost of his dry cleaning)

1:56 am

rbud

lol, ru!

1:56 am

jillibus

or Monica's? (Sorry -- cheap shot)

1:57 am

rururocks

(same difference)

1:58 am

jillibus

What a shame about those clay feet

1:58 am

rbud

1:58 am

rururocks

1:58 am

rururocks

clay feet?

1:59 am

jillibus

2:01 am

rururocks

I know he stuck his foot in his mouth more than once

2:01 am

rururocks

I know he stuck his foot in his mouth more than once

2:01 am

rbud

feet of clay: "a character flaw that is usually not readily apparent"

2:02 am

rururocks

oh.. never heard that before..

2:03 am

lynxxx

Feet of clay - fundamental weakness (of a person) Also idol with feet of clay: a person (occasionally thing) much admired but fatally flawed. ...An old expression. You are obviously young Ruru, hi

2:03 am

rururocks

I should ramble/rumble off to bed.. night all ...good luck with the grid ..

2:03 am

Night Ruru

2:03 am

jillibus

Daniel 31-33 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. 32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.

2:04 am

rururocks

not that young..lol... and certainly OLD enough to know better...lol

I hope Autumn Moon comes and sees all these cool cars

2:12 am

Is there something wrong with today's chat?

2:14 am

bfsog

how goes it?

2:14 am

sprite

we would, in Holland, josh!

2:14 am

joshuavorbis

i know! it happened there!

2:15 am

sprite

hi bsfog, hi Merk. Nothing seems to be wrong, Merk, but I couldn't enter the site at first, kept getting an error page.

2:15 am

lynxxx

hi Merk, not this end - except at hiccup time

2:15 am

lynxxx

hello bfsog

2:15 am

jillibus

didn't even notice a hiccup this time

2:16 am

Merk

I had to refresh to read my entry. It has all been brown boxes telling me to contact dr_god

2:17 am

sprite

ohoh, Merk, that is irritating. It was the normal chat behaviour during the hacking.

2:17 am

jillibus

that happened here last night -- weird

2:17 am

lynxxx

I see the red boxes now if I am trying to enter at hiccup time

2:17 am

sprite

I hope drG is alert to the possibility that the hacker will try again on the new server...

2:18 am

jillibus

well, I must go to bed -- library day tomorrow. We have a new computer system to learn :(

2:18 am

bfsog

it depends on what the hacker did. if it was relating to a bug in drg code then yes, he should patch it. if it was a server issue then its out of his hands

2:18 am

sprite

wow jilli, challenging. But you will manage, just give yourself time. Big *hug* and sleep well!

2:18 am

Merk

Oh was that last week's problem ... a hacker? I never heard that. I can only squeeze in time here in bits and pieces when I'm in China.

2:19 am

joshuavorbis

fireworks

2:19 am

jillibus

Are you in China again now, Merk?

2:19 am

sprite

it was, Merk.
Bfsog, that is true. I trust drG took a new server with better safety measures.

2:19 am

jillibus

YAY josh!!!

2:19 am

sprite

wtg josh!

2:19 am

lynxxx

congrats Josh

2:19 am

Merk

Yes, since the end of January.

2:19 am

joshuavorbis

where in china?

2:19 am

Merk

Harbin ... brrrr

2:20 am

Merk

We will leave Sunday p.m. and I'll get home Monday afternoon.

2:20 am

sprite

not a good place, Merk, or just a cold place?

2:20 am

Merk

Cold place ... wonderful in all other respects. We saw the Snow and Ice Sculptures again ... better every winter.

2:20 am

Andree

back again

2:20 am

jillibus

I was out today and when I got home there was a message on my answering machine. It was all in Chinese! I think I heard the word for China and for Yes. Very strange.

2:21 am

2:21 am

sprite

how odd, jilli!

2:22 am

Merk

Yes, I am, as always. I hope I make it back here in July. There's always the chance they'll assign me elsewhere, but I always put in my plea for here.

2:22 am

Merk

Well, it's back to work for me. Have a good end to your Wednesday.

2:22 am

jillibus

lynxxx

hi Niks

2:26 am

sprite

hi niks, we don't know really

2:26 am

herinfernallady

to confuse or disconcert; upset; frustrate: The speaker was completely discombobulated by the hecklers

2:26 am

sprite

great word, lady, but not a pleasant state of mind

2:27 am

herinfernallady

WOW Cool that really sucks

2:27 am

sprite

2:27 am

BabbleRabble

sorry to hear that, cool girl

2:27 am

sprite

2:27 am

sprite

2:27 am

Andree

2:27 am

herinfernallady

that sucks cool He is very smart lad and they are stupid not to accept him

2:27 am

BabbleRabble

don't know what the big deal is, herein, that is normal for me

2:28 am

sprite

yeah but you know how to make it work, BabbleRabble

2:28 am

cool girl

i no i was really upset but you have to bounce back as they say what dont kill u makes u stronger

2:28 am

cool girl

i no i was really upset but you have to bounce back as they say what dont kill u makes u stronger

2:28 am

private school/s Cool? I saw a program on that topic, the competition seems very fierce!

2:29 am

sprite

you will, cool. But it doesn't make it fun.

2:29 am

cool girl

i dont no y that repeated twice sorry

2:29 am

sandyloo

2:29 am

sprite

wb sandly

2:29 am

Andree

hi again sandy

2:29 am

sandyloo

cool we have to book our kids into private schools at birth

2:30 am

lynxxx

hi Sandy

2:30 am

BabbleRabble

those who keep getting the red menace may want to inform Dr_God; Scroll down and click "Send them" to email him

2:31 am

lynxxx

Cool - is your house back in one piece again?

2:31 am

sandyloo

Cool, did your house blow up?

2:32 am

cool girl

there not private there academy ut what really annoys me is that my son was born in hackney has always schooled in hackney he had 100 attendance and won a science scholarship for hackney which is an underachieving area and he still didnt get a place it makes wonder what u have to do it seems only the badly brought up kids or the troublemakers seem to get everything

2:33 am

herinfernallady

Ok I am off two minds. My b.fs friend is getting married and I'm not invited. One mind is thinking maybe he wants to have a small wedding just friends cheap it low key. The other part of my brain is thinking. The snobby bastard wants the guests to buy gifts from a top end store and the reception is at a really expensive place. So how can you not have invited your friend and partner. I have been with the b.f for 6 years and this guy knows it.

2:33 am

sprite

very frustrating, cool

2:34 am

cool girl

thanks 4 asking about my home lynxxx its all fixed apart from painting no it didnt blow up sandy it flooded

2:34 am

sprite

lady, let your bf ask the friend why you are not invited

2:34 am

Andree

ooh herin that is bad, if you live with b f, then you should be invited , small wedding or not

2:34 am

sandyloo

that seems very unfair Cool and Herin that sounds as though they cant afford things

2:35 am

herinfernallady

Cool that is sucky about the school

2:35 am

cool girl

i would feel offended to hern id ask

2:35 am

Andree

b.f. should ask or refuse to go

2:35 am

cool girl

thanks hern

2:35 am

sandyloo

That is terrible Cool , it sounds like you are having a bad time

2:35 am

lynxxx

Infernal...I agree w. Sprite. That is just bad manners. Get your bf to check that the invitation does include you - naturally - otherwise if I was him I would decline it

2:35 am

herinfernallady

I think if you are having a weeding and you think well ''and guest'' they may bring a random person. But we have been together for 6 years. Its not like im some random slapper

2:36 am

Andree

is b.f. going herin

2:36 am

cool girl

yeah but after the storm the sun always shines

2:36 am

herinfernallady

No its says Dear B..... that is all its all fancy and stuff.

2:37 am

herinfernallady

Exactly Cool.

2:37 am

herinfernallady

No Idea Andree he is too interested in his new game

2:37 am

sandyloo

Nowadays , some people will invite only one to save money- so that may be it- I would take Sprite's advice herin and ask the bf to ask

2:38 am

cool girl

thats quite rude in england its common on an invatation to put and friend or guest on the card

2:38 am

Andree

i am sure if you are not invited he won't attend, it's so rude of his freind

2:38 am

herinfernallady

Sandy to save money you wouldn't have your dream weeding at Expensive Place with Guest list from Expensive Store.

2:38 am

Andree

friend too

2:39 am

herinfernallady

My pacifist mind is maybe they just stuffed up on the invites so be it

2:39 am

sandyloo

I guess so Herin, but you never know until you find out

2:39 am

herinfernallady

I wont find out as nerd boy has a new pc game.

2:40 am

Andree

i am sure it is just an oversight herin

2:40 am

cool girl

u will ever no unless u check get your partner to ring and just check then at least your no the truth

2:40 am

lynxxx

BBL

2:40 am

sprite

bye lyn *hug*

2:40 am

herinfernallady

Cool also my aunt would say ''God opens one door to close another'' I am very sure your son will be expected some were better

2:41 am

*sad that Eeyore isn't valid*

2:42 am

herinfernallady

I thought I was doing yesterdays grid

2:42 am

2:42 am

sandyloo

I think i have tried everything with that ae4 -it's driving me even more crazy than I am naturally

2:43 am

sprite

cool :)
And I think as well that there is a better place for your boy to go, but finding it is quite frustrating.

2:43 am

herinfernallady

Can you start doing your research now and see if there is another place that will accept him and have a scholarship entrance exam? I don't know how England does it

2:43 am

sprite

not su4 if it is the meaning, but it sounds like place where eagles sleep, sandy

2:44 am

cool girl

they say everything happens 4 a reason ive just got to wait a litte while to see what it is

2:44 am

sprite

it would be nice if they told you the reason while you were having to face and solve the problems, wouldn't it!

2:44 am

sandyloo

WHOO HOO finally, lol, thanks for that

2:45 am

sprite

wtg sandy!

2:47 am

herinfernallady

OH ALso my school has scholarships.

2:48 am

cool girl

ive got another school in mind but its not as near i just worry with all the violence in london at moment but i also no u have to let your children breathe and learn its hard though cause his my baby his my youngest

2:49 am

sandyloo

Cool, if I was you , I would go and personally see the headmaster

2:50 am

cool girl

i tried to get him into 4 schools on the appeal i get to see the heads

2:50 am

sandyloo

How old is he?

2:50 am

sprite

4:39 am

herinfernallady

BOOOOOOOOOO

4:56 am

bfsog

argh

4:58 am

herinfernallady

hi

4:59 am

herinfernallady

BFs are you married or just partnered?

5:01 am

bfsog

married? ha, thats scary talk

5:02 am

herinfernallady

OK so long term partner?

5:02 am

bfsog

yeah

5:03 am

herinfernallady

Ok so if I sent you a wedding invite to just you and not her she would be pissed?

5:03 am

bfsog

does she know you? and am i willing to go without her?

5:03 am

bfsog

if she knows you as well then yeah she would

5:04 am

herinfernallady

Ok I know of her as in there is Mrs BFs (in theory)

5:05 am

bfsog

then yeah she would be miffed if she did not get an invite, especially as its a wedding, its always plus one isnt it

5:05 am

bfsog

but i wouldnt go without her so i would tell whoever sent the invite that mrs bfsog is coming

5:06 am

herinfernallady

Thats what I thought. my B.f just got a fancy invite no mrs mentioned. I have been attached to him for 6 years

5:07 am

bfsog

and the person knows he and you are together

5:07 am

herinfernallady

er about 90% sure

5:07 am

herinfernallady

but if not wouldn't it be and guest (sorry dude i totally forgot her name)

5:07 am

bfsog

if she didnt get an invite but it said "plus 1" then she wouldnt mind, as it is odd receiving an invite from someone you do not really know

5:07 am

bfsog

maybe the invite says plus 1

5:08 am

herinfernallady

Nope no where on it

5:08 am

bfsog

right to be miffed

5:08 am

herinfernallady

It says the usually weeding shtuff. Mr B and Miss B are getting married on this day You are invited

5:08 am

herinfernallady

Thank you

5:09 am

bfsog

5:09 am

bfsog

and does your man know the groom or bride?

5:09 am

herinfernallady

I like to actually hear a male Point of View since mine ahs Empire Total war and is being useless

5:10 am

herinfernallady

Oh yes he has been friends with this guy for ages. I was thinking that it was small scale due to costs then I saw the venue and what they want given and from wear and im like nope there is no way they are being tight

5:11 am

herinfernallady

oh and these H words are driving me batty

5:16 am

bfsog

do you want clues or are you a grafter

5:16 am

herinfernallady

5:24 am

mrpresident

hello all :))

5:25 am

herinfernallady

hi presie

5:27 am

mrpresident

oh man! had to refresh again!!
what is wrong with babble??

5:27 am

mrpresident

hi infern :))

5:27 am

mrpresident

how you going chickie...? study ok?

5:27 am

herinfernallady

idno

5:27 am

herinfernallady

YEs that is all good

5:28 am

herinfernallady

If you read back tghat is my current issue

5:29 am

mrpresident

readback isn't working... give it to me

5:30 am

mrpresident

I see lickety has one extra word... hmmm

5:30 am

mrpresident

5 letter too

5:31 am

herinfernallady

ok long story short. Snooty uppity Wedding b.f has been invited to him alone. Not me so im pissy

5:32 am

mrpresident

tell them to FO, and he shouldn't go

5:33 am

mrpresident

that happened to me too, my BF was invited to his very good friend's wedding, but cause I wasn't, he told them to piss off and didn't go.
I thought that was very decent of him, and it certainly taught his friend a lesson in propriety

5:33 am

herinfernallady

Yes. My first thought was Oh he must be doing it on the cheap keep it small then I saw the gift registry (top end) and then the venue and im like FO no way

5:34 am

herinfernallady

Well mine is being a turd tonight

5:35 am

herinfernallady

I think he will speak to the guy simple mistake (but not to put on and guest is rude.

5:35 am

mrpresident

infern, he better do the right thing

5:37 am

herinfernallady

Or ill shake my fist. Sure hun its ok im not upset you go and have a good time and don't forget we didn't buy them a gift

5:38 am

mrpresident

I had to keep my wedding small, so I only invited couples who were living together... not just 'going out'. It made it simple and easy to understand. My now SIL wasn't invited cause she was a girlfriend (only just met my brother), and my ex BF didn't have his girlfriend invited cause they were not 'committed'.
I don't know if that makes sense to anyone, but I think it helped us to make it much easier with invites.

5:38 am

kje

isn't it common there to say mrp + guest?

5:38 am

mrpresident

no infern!
This is bullshit

5:39 am

herinfernallady

I think it is

5:39 am

mrpresident

kje, not when you need to keep your party down to 65

5:39 am

mrpresident

I wasn't invited to a wedding cause the bride didn't like me... they had 500 people at the wedding

5:40 am

herinfernallady

Well the venue fits 220 its at a snobby venue VERY $$$ and the gift Reg is through not DJ's

5:40 am

kje

but mrp - you didn't invite the singles, so that is different... if you invite a single, i think it is common to say "and date"... etc

5:40 am

herinfernallady

Well its not like I haven't been attached to him for 6 years

5:41 am

kje

surgically herin?

5:41 am

kje

: )

5:41 am

mrpresident

I didn't invite singles.

5:41 am

mrpresident

The only singles I had were in my wedding party. All three girls were single

5:41 am

kje

herin - he can call and clarify... I would like to bring my SO... then if they say no, you know

5:42 am

mrpresident

And all the boys in Lickety's party were singles too (except for 1, the best man, who was engaged)

5:42 am

kje

well... people should be able to do what they want on their wedding day... but if they are going to be super particular, then they should expect some may get offended

5:43 am

kje

how old were you guys, mrp?

5:43 am

herinfernallady

KJE we share the same Facially expressions at times

5:43 am

mrpresident

you are certainly a significant other... they are indecent not to invite you.
I do hope it was an error, but doubt it. These things are well planned

5:43 am

herinfernallady

Look Im not being a princess about this issue but alot of other fiends of ours will be there. OH KJE i miss you

5:43 am

Alexis Elise

Good Morning Everyone

5:44 am

kje

honestly, I have never gotten an invite that didn't say guest.... guess my friends keep hoping - LOL

5:44 am

herinfernallady

Hi Alexis

5:44 am

herinfernallady

Kje we loves you

5:44 am

kje

hi alexis

5:44 am

mrpresident

we were 27 when we married!
Made sure we were both the same age! LOL, even if it is for 4 months of the year

5:44 am

kje

ty herin - i loves you all too

5:44 am

mrpresident

hi alexis... nice to meet you

5:45 am

Alexis Elise

Nice to meet you Mr. President

5:45 am

Alexis Elise

I had no idea the president liked to Babble

5:45 am

mrpresident

kje, I had to make a decision, to keep numbers down. It was difficult, but everyone understood

5:45 am

kje

seriously, alexis???? that is a hilarious book title!!!

5:45 am

herinfernallady

mmmmmm yummy Bananas sprayed 50 times a year now imported into Aus

5:45 am

mrpresident

LOL Alexis! indeed I do!

5:46 am

Alexis Elise

At least we finally have a president that knows how to spell :)

5:46 am

herinfernallady

WOW can I have $2000 for lip syncing and claiming I have talent?

5:46 am

kje

yep mrp... i think it is easy if you make that clear... it is different though if it can be taken as an obvious slight... like there has already been a history of excluding that person, etc

5:47 am

herinfernallady

Alex can I friend you on Flickr please?

5:47 am

mrpresident

oh indeed Alexis! smart, talented and handsome, with a gorgeous family

5:47 am

Alexis Elise

Of course

5:48 am

mrpresident

Love your pussycats Alexis!
Infern will shit you to tears with her pusscat stories! LOL (((hugs infern)))

5:48 am

herinfernallady

yah I love your Inapropriate kitty pics

5:48 am

kje

describing yourself or obama, mrp? cuz it fits either way - LOL

5:49 am

mrpresident

kje, I think that excluding a partner is rude... infern is living with her BF in a defacto relationship... it is the same as being married.

5:49 am

herinfernallady

Yep. Love my kitties

5:49 am

kje

agree mrp....

5:49 am

mrpresident

oh thanks kje!
I accept the handsome, but think I might be a little prettier! LOL

5:49 am

Alexis Elise

What do you mean inapropriate?
They just love each other

5:49 am

herinfernallady

Kitties 001 looks so naughty

5:50 am

Alexis Elise

I'm starting to think this president thing is a sham. His flag says he's from Australia.

5:50 am

kje

handsome use to be used in old books to describe women... wonder when it became for men only?

5:50 am

herinfernallady

Grody is a word

5:50 am

kje

i think it os spelled grodey

5:50 am

kje

jk

5:51 am

herinfernallady

Nope More words says Grody

5:51 am

kje

LOL herin - i can't believe it has it in there!

5:51 am

mrpresident

handsome describes a manly woman!

5:51 am

mrpresident

Alexis! can't I be a president??

5:52 am

kje

sorry mrp.... will not call you handsome - LOL

5:52 am

mrpresident

I am running for president across the universe!

5:52 am

kje

WILL call you sassy though

5:52 am

Alexis Elise

What's your platform, Mr. Pres?

5:52 am

mrpresident

oh thanks kje! I don't think I look too manly! LOL

5:53 am

mrpresident

I am PC, what is yours?

5:53 am

kje

her platform is shoes... shoes for everyone...

5:53 am

herinfernallady

drool shoes

5:53 am

kje

and another plank is that SO's should be invited to weddings

5:54 am

mrpresident

love shoes!!
and hats.... and bags... and gloves.... and jewellery...
HECK! I LOVE ACCESSORIES!

5:54 am

Alexis Elise

are we talking those awesome platform shoes like pee-wee herman wears?

5:54 am

kje

she also promises to keep babble free from trolls during her tenure

5:55 am

mrpresident

5:57 am

herinfernallady

5:57 am

Alexis Elise

Just don't ask me how many pair of jeans I own. That would take a long time to count...

5:57 am

kje

hi lori! LOL - just looked at the count when you said that... had started without looking, was distracted by wedding debates

5:58 am

mrpresident

hi lori :))

herinfernallady

5:58 am

Alexis Elise

KJ, I don't even know where I would keep that many pair of shoes

5:58 am

mrpresident

I own 27 pairs of jeans

5:59 am

kje

well, i probably wear the same 4-5 pair most of the time... but you need others for certain outfits or occasions... or just cuz they make your legs look fantastic

5:59 am

herinfernallady

Hi Lori

5:59 am

kje

5:59 am

Alexis Elise

6:00 am

bichon

MrP, that's an oxymoron [so to speak]

6:00 am

Alexis Elise

I can't count my jeans... the boyfriend is sleeping and probably wouldn't like for me to turn the light on to count clothes :)

6:00 am

kje

cuz I only wear jeans on occasion... most of my wardrobe is for work and i cannot wear jeans to work

6:01 am

kje

jeans on weekends only... how many pair do you need?

6:02 am

Alexis Elise

6:02 am

kje

6:02 am

mrpresident

6:02 am

Alexis Elise

My wardrobe consists of jeans and offensive t-shirts. I couldn't imagine wearing anything else

6:02 am

LoriP

8:28 am

mrpresident

she is a dog

8:28 am

NonoNanette

the babes are the innocent ones in the whole mess

8:28 am

Anniebrook

I feel sorry for the children.

8:29 am

NonoNanette

I am thinking they will find her mentally incompetent to care for them

8:29 am

mrpresident

I hope so

8:30 am

flosey

can only hope so nono

8:30 am

magazinemom

no way... they let kids be raised by wolves every day

arrggghhh! Can I get a clue for one of the re5's...I have the first one..need the other 2

8:30 am

tragicstud

i wonder what it would do to the babies to get split up though

8:30 am

flosey

Annie, colour again

8:30 am

magazinemom

she would have to commit murder before they would terminate her parental rights

8:31 am

tragicstud

i mean, there are twin studies on being split up, i wonder what happens to larger multiples

8:31 am

NonoNanette

that would be unfortunate ts

8:32 am

Anniebrook

thanks, flosey

8:32 am

tragicstud

but they'd have to, right? i mean, who can take care of that many babies at once? willingness to do it is almost grounds for insanity, ya know?

8:32 am

flosey

and - re5 left clothes on the line - it rained, had to re*** them

8:32 am

NonoNanette

do you really think it would take that magmom

8:32 am

magazinemom

I have a friend who is a foster parent and every day these kids are returned to parents who are abusive, neglectful, some of them still drug addicted. It's sickening. In comparison, she's a saint.

8:33 am

8:41 am

Aussieme

Where is she MrP ?

8:42 am

BabbleRabble

Lay your sleeping head, my love,
Human on my faithless arm;
Time and fevers burn away
Individual beauty from
Thoughtful children, and the grave
Proves the child ephemeral:
But in my arms till break of day
Let the living creature lie,
Mortal, guilty, but to me
The entirely beautiful.

8:42 am

Aussieme

WOW BabRab !

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
Smiles await you when you rise.
Sleep,

Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.

Cares you know not,
Therefore sleep,
While over you a watch I'll keep.
Sleep,

Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.

9:01 am

NonoNanette

congrats Annie!

9:01 am

mrpresident

Sydney Church of Engand Girls Grammar School... SCEGGS

9:02 am

Haz1558

Grammar is the skeleton upon which any language is hung. Or is that too mixed a metaphor?

9:02 am

mrpresident

oh ata! the $15,000 fees were wasted on me darling!
I am a socialist now.
It taught me to fight for my rights! Social Science was my forte

9:02 am

mrpresident

and my children question everything!

9:03 am

mrpresident

I love them for their intuition

9:03 am

Haz1558

My children question nothing. They know I am right, it saves so much time.

9:04 am

mrpresident

Haz, how true
when it comes to what I know and understand, they are completely in agreement... but I am a very educated woman

9:04 am

NonoNanette

Haz1558

It must be nice to be educated.

9:05 am

mrpresident

I might be wrong, but they have to prove it! LOL

9:05 am

Atalante

mustn't it?

9:05 am

Haz1558

You're coming through, BDG.

9:05 am

mrpresident

hi bookwoman!!!

Book Doctor Gwen

hiyall

9:05 am

Book Doctor Gwen

'sup, MrPrez??

9:05 am

Book Doctor Gwen

screen got stuck there . . .

9:05 am

mrpresident

am I on my own in being educated in the private system??

9:06 am

Atalante

nope. I went to the best girl's private school in the UK

9:06 am

Haz1558

We're so backward here we barely have schools.

9:06 am

mrpresident

Gwen! lovely to see you!

9:06 am

Pinikula

* yawn * morning all (here for a few)

9:06 am

Book Doctor Gwen

does australia call its public schools private schools? (in US, public ones are the ones paid for by taxes)

9:06 am

mrpresident

oh rubbish! the UK has wonderful school, as I understand

9:06 am

NonoNanette

morning Pini

9:06 am

mrpresident

hi pini!! get a cuppa and join us!

9:07 am

Pinikula

private v public schools? I attended DOD and parochial (both considered "private")

9:07 am

Atalante

england maybe, northern ireland'sa different story ...

9:07 am

Pinikula

Mmmm, thx mrp...

9:07 am

Haz1558

A different story completely.

9:07 am

chiley

I'm not book smart. I'm more magazine smart.

9:07 am

Book Doctor Gwen

lol chiley

9:07 am

Haz1558

Hello chiley.

9:08 am

chiley

Hi Hax and Gwen, and all Babblers

9:08 am

Atalante

they just learn how to drink guinness over there

9:08 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ooh, i found a 7

9:08 am

Atalante

and how to dress up as leprechauns

9:08 am

Haz1558

Yes, and how to brew poteen. It's the quality of the water that makes the difference.

9:08 am

mrpresident

I went to a Church of England School... cost my parents beyond comprehension.
But... if a child 'wants' to learn, it doesn't matter what school they go to... they will excel

9:09 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i was edumacated in public schools, and i have the mental damage to prove it 8-)

9:09 am

Atalante

not true at all

9:09 am

Pinikula

* gads, how I want to return to my warm bed - but know if I do, will be late for work *

9:10 am

Haz1558

Yes, the leprechaun training is very hard on those who grow tall.

9:10 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ooh, another 7

9:10 am

mrpresident

my children are very talented.
my daughter is extremely smart and has the opportunity to go to any high school.
Luke is too smart... so he will attend a school that has extention classes for special needs

9:10 am

Book Doctor Gwen

(sad to have missed the leprechaun training)

9:10 am

Haz1558

Those who have ginger hair have a natural advantage in the leprechaun training stakes.

9:10 am

Pinikula

you're rather perky this morning, Gwen...care to share your 7's? (I only have 1 and am not moving as quickly) ;)

9:11 am

Atalante

and those with that Irish charm and twinkles in their eyes

9:11 am

mrpresident

Ata, not true at all?

9:11 am

Book Doctor Gwen

okay, he7, a bunch of people who make square topiaries

9:11 am

Pinikula

are leprechaun exclusively irish? or are there any scottish?

9:11 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ca7, describes what the people did who brought all the food

9:12 am

Haz1558

I nearly forgot about the Irish dancing classes. Legs working like fury and your two arms the one length.

9:12 am

Pinikula

have that one, gwen ;)

9:12 am

Pinikula

had the ca5 of that one...didn't think to extend...thx gwen!

9:12 am

Haz1558

There are no Scottish leprechauns. We're exclusive in our leprechaunness.

9:12 am

Atalante

do you get sword dancing, or is that just Scotland?

9:12 am

Haz1558

We use swords for fighting.

9:13 am

mrpresident

Maddison is doing sword dancing this year! LOL

9:13 am

LoriP

My kids swallow swords. They're that good.

9:13 am

Atalante

didn't the IRA realise this? Silly people

9:13 am

mrpresident

She is learning the highland dance

9:13 am

Atalante

my dog does too

9:13 am

Pinikula

hmmm...sword dancing, eh? I think I'll watch (I kinda like being tall)

9:13 am

Haz1558

When there's disagreement over the best poteen recipe, out come the swords.

9:14 am

Haz1558

Those leprechauns may look benign, but fire them up with poteen, give them a sword each and stand back!

9:14 am

LoriP

We're even worse off here, there's only like 1 skool per every couple thousand kids. Learnin's highly overrated.

9:14 am

EvaNadine

*gives haz a gold star for excellent incorporation of a babblet into normal(ish) conversation*

9:14 am

mrpresident

In Australia, we have much wonder... our children are easily educated.
If I want my kids to learn something, I ask the school, and they arrange it.
It is an amazing charm of our schools system

9:14 am

Haz1558

And one teacher at the school?

9:15 am

Atalante

what about stripping?

9:15 am

LoriP

Teacher ?

9:15 am

Haz1558

Thank you, Evan. I'll treasure it.

9:15 am

mrpresident

stripping ??

9:15 am

Haz1558

Stripping lessons come later.

9:15 am

LoriP

lol Ehva

9:15 am

Book Doctor Gwen

do not get me started on schooling topics!

9:16 am

Haz1558

Don't you have teachers, Lori? They're the ones with the canes.

9:16 am

Vicuna

I do NOT want to see a leprechaun stripping.

9:16 am

mrpresident

stripping lessons???

9:16 am

Atalante

Haz could go to Aus and teach stripping

9:16 am

mrpresident

what are you talking about

9:16 am

Vicuna

Or have a misunderstood something somewhere?

9:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

"grody" is a real word where i'm from

9:16 am

Haz1558

I've heard of something called a blackboard but it sounds a bit far-fetched.

9:17 am

Haz1558

It's okay. If leprechauns strip, it only reveals that they are completely covered in ginger hair.

9:17 am

mrpresident

are you talking about maddison?? stripping lessons??

9:17 am

LoriP

Haz, where are you gettin' all these fancy terms from? Hi Vic!!!

9:17 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ew, haz!

9:17 am

Haz1558

Some people think that they're seeing orang-utans, but no, it's just naked leprechauns.

9:17 am

Vicuna

Just as long as they're not into stripping AND shaving, then.

9:18 am

Haz1558

NO, shaving of leprechauns was outlawed in the 16th century.

9:18 am

tragicstud

i don't imagine anyone is suggesting stripping lessons for your daughter :)

9:18 am

Vicuna

So leprechains are not exclusively Irish! It's just that the ones in Borneo are too hot to wear the little green suits and buckled shoes and all.

9:18 am

Atalante

they are only allowed poodle cuts nowadays

9:19 am

LoriP

***Gah, neighbor is here. BBL***

9:19 am

mrpresident

I must say... my daughter just turned 11.

9:19 am

Haz1558

Good thinking, Vicuna. They have that twinkly eyed charm as well - the Borneo Leprechauns.

9:19 am

Vicuna

Oops, bye, Lori!

9:19 am

Haz1558

Stripping lessons only given to the wallpaper apprentices in leprechaun school.

9:20 am

Vicuna

I think this has a science article written all over it. To be submitted to "The Journal of Irreproducible Results."

9:20 am

Atalante

yep, about time she learnt

9:20 am

FMitch

I used to to strip a lot but I have no wallapaper left now :(

9:20 am

Haz1558

Of course, the paint apprentices in wallpaper school (Leprechaun division) have to be dissuaded from using themselves as paint rollers. So messy afterwards.

9:20 am

Vicuna

FM!

9:21 am

Vicuna

You could strip old furniture.

9:21 am

Pinikula

must be off to get ready for work...cya l8r today...

9:21 am

FMitch

Hey there Vi :)

9:21 am

Haz1558

FMitch! Yes, strip off all the polish and revarnish.

9:21 am

Haz1558

Bye Pini.

9:21 am

mrpresident

how extreme.

9:21 am

Book Doctor Gwen

(completely lost track of the gist of this convo)

9:21 am

Vicuna

Bye, Pini.

9:21 am

FMitch

Ah now ya talking Vi - old furniture stripping is brilliant but so time consuming.

9:22 am

Vicuna

ANd when they do the pole dancing.... whooeee!

9:22 am

mrpresident

gwen, it is an infamous convo...

9:22 am

Vicuna

We have a spindle-back chair with ALL the moves.

9:22 am

Atalante

could you dance around a pole stripping it? If a pole ever needed stripping?

9:23 am

FMitch

What wrong with Poles dancing?

9:23 am

J. C.

Good afternoon . . .

9:23 am

Vicuna

LOL Fm

9:23 am

Atalante

they are too busy drinking vodka usually

9:23 am

chiley

Have you seen the book "Sliding down the flagpole naked" by Dick Burns?

9:23 am

FMitch

The Poish race have some wonderful country dancing skills

9:23 am

Vicuna

Do they dance to balalaika, or is that only Russians?

9:24 am

FMitch

LOL chiley

9:24 am

Haz1558

Ooooooh we could get into funny book titles - that's if we knew what books were.

9:24 am

mrpresident

one thing I can talk about.. I was expressing my feelings about my 11 year old daughter, and it went south.
Thankfully she isn't online.
Cause it could have been taken very badly.
But... I am giving my friends on babble the benefit of the doubt and wishing they are joking around

9:24 am

Haz1558

Of course, FM, you know all about the Greeks dancing.

9:24 am

FMitch

Not sure Vi but throw in some baklava and that will help grease the pole

9:25 am

Book Doctor Gwen

funny book titles, now that i can talk about. here's a few: http://tomfolio.pbwiki.com/AuthorAptro
nyms

9:25 am

Haz1558

I'm glad she wasn't online when you were talking about your underwear, mrp.

9:25 am

Vicuna

And have them wear balaclavas, too.

9:25 am

Haz1558

We've just been having some fun, that's all. NOthing directed at Maddison at all.

9:25 am

J. C.

Hmmm . . . I'll try that again. Good afternoon . . .

9:25 am

mrpresident

hi JC !!

9:25 am

FMitch

MrP having only just joined the convo I have no idea what your post is about

9:26 am

mrpresident

9:26 am

Atalante

oh yes, I think that would have been more traumatic!

9:26 am

FMitch

Hi J.C

FMitch, no problem at all! thank you sweetie!

9:26 am

tragicstud

i keep looking up from my notes and shaking my head... :)

9:26 am

J. C.

Hi, Mr. President sir! Oops, I mean ma'am! ;)

9:26 am

Vicuna

I can only assure you, mrp, that when we discuss orangutans as leprechauns and antique chairs dancing to balaikas we are absolutely deadly serious.

9:27 am

FMitch

**snort***

9:27 am

mrpresident

bye gwen!

9:27 am

J. C.

Hi Tragicstud, Haz and Vicuna . . .

9:28 am

Vicuna

*buys stock in handkerchief company*

9:29 am

tragicstud

9:29 am

FMitch

Awy hydra - feel well soon, Im under the weather too.
gr5/20 is a phntom does not exist

9:29 am

Haz1558

Yes, do all buy Kleenex Balsam tissues. Nothing to do with me having shares in the business or anything, they're just awfully nice.

9:29 am

Vicuna

ca4/7 - low coral islands

9:29 am

J. C.

Erm - maie THAT 'clue'! I can't type now.

9:30 am

mrpresident

my goodness Haz! how long have you been online that you saw the talk about my underwear!???
THAT was a funny last laugh!
She is away... she is very sick.

9:30 am

Vicuna

Better correct "maie" while you're at it! lol

9:30 am

FMitch

LOL JC - welcome to the typo club :)

9:30 am

hydra

The ca4/7 is is like the Florida K--- spelt differently.

9:30 am

Haz1558

J C can join FM in the creative typing lesson.

9:30 am

J. C.

Got it - thank you so much, Vicuna! :)

9:30 am

J. C.

And Hydra . . .

9:31 am

J. C.

HAHAHA, OK Haz - my typing's usually not bad at all, when I'm not sick, overtired and dopey on cold medicine! :P

9:31 am

FMitch

MrP don't forget that anyone can look back at the log and even google it

9:31 am

hydra

My clue was lousy. It should have been singular. Brain full of muzziness.

9:31 am

Haz1558

mrp, I usually read back in the chat log. Sometimes my chin is at ground level by the time I've finished.

9:31 am

mrpresident

fmitch, they can, and I hope they see the bright side

9:31 am

Haz1558

J C - make any excuse you like, we've heard them all before from FM.

9:32 am

J. C.

Ooh, it gets that good, does it Haz?

9:32 am

FMitch

*picks up Haz's chin carefully and shut her gaping mouthg*

9:32 am

Vicuna

Then we have to hoist it up with some good-old-fashioned nonsense for her.

9:32 am

Atalante

the bright side of underwear ... hmmm!

9:32 am

J. C.

I see, Haz . . .

9:32 am

Vicuna

The side with the spotlights shining on it?

9:32 am

mrpresident

LOL Haz!! Lucky for my kids that they don't read the log

9:32 am

Haz1558

Thanks FM, the drooling was beginning to cause a problem.

9:32 am

J. C.

Lovely Spaniel in your photo, Haz - Springer or Brittany?

9:33 am

mrpresident

but, lucky for my kids that their parent's love eachother very much

9:33 am

FMitch

The brighter side of underwear - only if washed in the bio friendly bleach bestest washing powder??

9:33 am

Haz1558

She's Spangle, a Welsh Springer.

9:33 am

J. C.

Oh, OK - very sweet face on her! :)

9:33 am

Vicuna

"So you won't have ashamed-to-show-it whites."

9:34 am

Haz1558

She has - the breeder described her as having a 'Love Me' face.

9:34 am

torgone

Good morning kids ..

9:34 am

FMitch

Spangle AKA as The Glittery one and JC you should see Ata's bouncy dog too

9:34 am

Haz1558

Good morning torgone.

9:34 am

Atalante

she's not very bouncy in this pic!

9:34 am

mrpresident

Oh fmitch! it was totally wrong!
She presented my underwear to me... completely inappropriate! I had to 'chastise' L for the 'oversite'

9:34 am

FMitch

Hey Torg

9:35 am

J. C.

I have a lovely little girl myself - she's a mongrel though, a rescue adopted from a shelter. She's probably about the size of yours, only light-boned, and she's smooth-coated, solid black except for a tiny white streak on her chest and resembles a small Labrador, sort of. Her mum was a Whippet-cross, her father unknown - I suspect she has some Poodle in her though.

9:35 am

mrpresident

hi torg!

9:35 am

Vicuna

Good morning, tor.

9:35 am

Atalante

oversight, please

9:35 am

Haz1558

Spangle has a deeper bark than Ata's dog. Is that cause for smug?

9:35 am

Atalante

I think so

9:36 am

Haz1558

Dogs are great fun and lovely companions.

9:36 am

Vicuna

Ooh, you'll have to go pro so we can see pictures, J.C.

9:36 am

FMitch

Declres that Haz can be smug for a while - well half an hour.

9:36 am

Haz1558

I thought so.

9:36 am

J. C.

Yes, they certainly are . . .

9:36 am

mrpresident

oh JC! how adorable!!

9:36 am

J. C.

Mine is definitely a family member - she thinks she's my child, not a pet. She's right, as it happens . . .

9:36 am

blueheron

gm mama2 blue...mom

9:36 am

Haz1558

Half an hour of smug and then things revert to normality.

9:37 am

J. C.

She is, MRP - she has the sweetest little face!

9:37 am

Vicuna

*bracing for the smugstorm*

9:37 am

mrpresident

normality is under-rated!

9:37 am

FMitch

lol JC

9:37 am

Atalante

only I can be smug for ever

9:37 am

Haz1558

Spangle is definitely a dog. She even sleeps in a kennel. (Cue horror and severe reduction in smug)

9:37 am

Atalante

a cold, wet kennel

9:38 am

Haz1558

With spiders and earwigs and cats howling outside.

9:38 am

Vicuna

Wondering whether I ought to balance out all the folks whose animals are children by treating my children as pets... hmmmm...

9:38 am

Atalante

pooooor Spangle

9:38 am

FMitch

My goodness talking of cold and wet - it was a raging torrent of hideousness here last night - monsoon and glaes :(

9:39 am

Atalante

was it ever!

9:39 am

Vicuna

Actually, son would much rather be a pet. He thinks he's a kitten.

9:39 am

Haz1558

I know. The wonder is that the cruelty people have let her stay.

9:39 am

Haz1558

We haven't had gales but it's got so cold again.

9:39 am

FMitch

Vi as I don't have pets or kids can I include my best potted plant instead?

9:39 am

mrpresident

you want to know what happened to Maddison?

9:39 am

Vicuna

Yes. I have told both the cat and the kids that my houseplants were here first, and they get precedence!

9:39 am

Haz1558

Don't you have any stuffed animals, FM?

9:40 am

FMitch

Might do but that would be telling

9:40 am

Atalante

she does

9:40 am

Haz1558

A woman of mystery.

9:41 am

FMitch

Ata might have seen 2 of them on Monday when she was here

9:41 am

Atalante

she has pink fluffy rhinoceroses all over her bed

9:41 am

Haz1558

And if they're breeding, who knows how many there may be on her return?

9:41 am

Vicuna

Ata let the stuffed cat (or bear or whatever) out of the bag!

9:41 am

mama2maddie

gm mom :-)

9:41 am

FMitch

ROFL!!!!!

9:42 am

mrpresident

wow ??

9:42 am

Vicuna

Pink fluffy rhinoceroses? That would be fab!

9:42 am

FMitch

LOL I just spit tea all over the place *sorry*

9:42 am

blueheron

nice day today sunshine

9:42 am

Haz1558

Have you always had these tendencies, FM? Pink rhinos and spitting tea?

9:43 am

Atalante

is that like being a spitting cobra?

9:43 am

FMitch

You've met me Haz so you shouldn't need to ask!

9:43 am

Haz1558

Another keyboard ruined?

9:43 am

Vicuna

good think I handed out handkerchiefs earlier so people can wipe up.

9:43 am

mama2maddie

not bad here either,,,in the low 50's

9:43 am

Haz1558

You mean that pink fluffy thing wasn't your purse, but was a travelling pink fluffy rhino?

9:44 am

Atalante

she carries one round with her? wow, it's worse than I thought

9:44 am

Haz1558

I think she needs an intervention.

9:44 am

Vicuna

Wear it on your head for true eccentricity, FM!

9:44 am

FMitch

OMG I need to pause to get breath loooooool

9:45 am

lkdubb

one to go.......GR 5/20 ????

9:45 am

Haz1558

Nothing says eccentricity like a pink fluffy rhino on your head.

9:45 am

mrpresident

ok, for those that are interested in maddison. she has gone up to the north coast to recover from her flu (since 10th Feb). This is her 3rd time on antibiotics.
I pray she will be home and in school by next week... cause she has missed 3 weeks of school.

9:45 am

Haz1558

gr5/20 - not needed, unnecessary in today's grid, an extra in Lickety's list.

9:45 am

FMitch

ikdubb there is no gr5/20, its an error onlicketys list

9:45 am

Haz1558

I hope she gets better soon, mrp.

9:46 am

mrpresident

thank you haz

9:46 am

Vicuna

Best wishes for a full recovery soon, mrp. That stinks.

Poor hydra. Remember, Kleenex Balsam tissues.

9:50 am

mrpresident

It is so awful to be sick... especially when you have to provide for your darling family :))

9:50 am

Atalante

oh yes, balsam tissues are the *best*

9:51 am

Haz1558

They're just about as good as morewords.com. Have I mentioned that site lately?

Atalante

9:54 am

FMitch

MrP what time is it with you - should you be asleep or something?

9:55 am

Vicuna

I don't either.

9:55 am

Vicuna

We're all special.

9:55 am

tragicstud

Trying to get rid of you MrP so we can talk about you :)

9:56 am

tragicstud

i brought her to the nurse and returned to my billing (and more importantly you all)

9:56 am

Vicuna

Your priorities do you credit, tragic.

9:56 am

Atalante

I'd hate to say ...

9:56 am

tragicstud

lol

9:56 am

mrpresident

it is 3am here... I am screwed...
and if anyone cares, I am needing help to get to sleep

9:57 am

tragicstud

i offered my billing mrp

9:57 am

Haz1558

Can you add the panic attack help to the billing?

9:57 am

tragicstud

don't say i didn't try

9:57 am

Vicuna

Whenever people hate to say something, they never actually hate saying it enough, do they?

9:57 am

tragicstud

9:57 am

tragicstud

9:57 am

forwardbyfaith

Vicuna

ho5/16 - sort of equine

9:58 am

rururocks

*** brings in a herd of sheep to jump the fence at Mr. P's house ****

9:58 am

tragicstud

she said "there doesn't seem to be much else to talk about, the walls are caving in and i can't feel my hands" and so... off to the nurse with her

9:58 am

Haz1558

But mrp, you need to be bored. You'll never be bored when people talk about tissues and morewords and paypal - all worthy things to talk about, but too interesting to send you to sleep.

9:58 am

FMitch

Think equestrian forwardbyfaith

9:58 am

rururocks

ho5/16 a characteristic of Mr. Ed...

9:58 am

Hello, ruru. Hello, sheep!

HI FM.. good to see you are still around.. ***adjusts halo ***

FMitch

9:59 am

rururocks

** er haz... I already have Sainthood ***

10:00 am

Haz1558

If I'd known it was sheep you wanted I could have droned on about the diseases they get and how they have difficulty lambing etc. I'd have had you over in no time and then I could have been declared an angel.

10:00 am

Vicuna

It's all the lovely fleecy lambs gamboling about. They lend an aura of angelickness.

10:00 am

FMitch

10:00 am

rururocks

Mr. P only needs to count them... not kiss them...

10:01 am

Vicuna

Lanolin is good for the lips.

10:01 am

Haz1558

We do have fields of lambs at the minute - they are pretty.

10:01 am

10:01 am

J. C.

10:01 am

Atalante

urf, I have to go. I need to write a vastly interesting guide to off-road vehicle use in sand dunes

10:01 am

FMitch

*sauce even

10:02 am

Haz1558

Did she run it by the sainthood committee or was it a unliateral decision?

10:02 am

Vicuna

Share it with mrp to send her to sleep, Ata.

10:02 am

Vicuna

Sounds like FM may have been hitting the sauche all right.

10:02 am

Atalante

I expect Mrp already knows a lot about it!

10:02 am

Haz1558

Ata - sum it up with 'Try not to, but if you must, go carefully'

10:02 am

FMitch

Ata - before you go - have you scanned int hat brill cartoon yet?

10:02 am

rururocks

I think it had to do with getting a particularly difficult word when she needed to go to bed.. but I will take sainthood as I get it...

10:03 am

mrpresident

thanks girls and boys... but I can't sleep.
I need a lullabye!

10:03 am

Vicuna

Well, umm, have fun, Ata? *waves farewell*

10:03 am

rururocks

Still waithing for my white robes to arrive in the mail though

10:03 am

Haz1558

That explains things, ruru. I was once offered a kidney in return for a clue for a word.

10:03 am

Atalante

nope, sorry! I'll get there after this assignment gets handed in!

10:03 am

mrpresident

ruru, I was at a meeting tonight

10:05 am

mrpresident

I was voted as secretary for the school parent and citizen crap

10:05 am

Vicuna

Wouldn't want any boats rocked. Cradles maybe, though.

10:05 am

carleekat

so besides our insomniac...how is everyone else doing?

10:05 am

Haz1558

We could always talk about Pandora and Lucius.

10:05 am

rururocks

citizen crap?

10:05 am

tragicstud

is that the official title mrp?

10:05 am

carleekat

10:05 am

mrpresident

rururocks

rururocks

10:06 am

J. C.

Oh, duh . . . thanks! :P

10:06 am

rururocks

10:07 am

FMitch

Talking of those that accomplish - I guess I had better get on.

10:07 am

rururocks

she is really a do 4.. but acts like two people

10:07 am

Haz1558

She's just scared of making more typos.

10:07 am

J. C.

Why do I find some really obscure words (probably from playing Literat and Word Racer on Yahoo) and miss such obvious ones??? :P

10:07 am

Vicuna

Must you, FM? Alas.

10:07 am

mrpresident

I was ambushed

10:07 am

FMitch

*tears self away from chat*

10:07 am

tragicstud

i am now only two months behind on billing!

10:07 am

J. C.

Erm - make that 'Literati'. My typing's left home.

10:07 am

tragicstud

hurah!

10:07 am

Vicuna

Yay for tragic!

10:07 am

10:09 am

Vicuna

Yay, FM's back! Now, what shall we talk about?

10:09 am

Haz1558

FM needn't ever claim that she's like Margaret Thatcher. That lady was NOT for turning!

10:09 am

mrpresident

I just can't sleep... I am being cruzified

10:09 am

rururocks

What have you been doing with all your extra time FM?

10:10 am

FMitch

Oh I know - can share a silly thing

FMitch

Got a message on the phone last week and had to call back - long story short the chap had misdialld and thought I was an escort agency!

10:11 am

tragicstud

my gf isn't on babble right now!

10:11 am

mrpresident

if it weren't for sex scandals, the market wouldn't have a story

10:11 am

J. C.

HAHAHA!

10:11 am

tragicstud

oooh, i wish i had things to talk about i didn't want her to know!

10:11 am

mrpresident

10:12 am

Vicuna

Well, I can ask, can't I?

10:12 am

Vicuna

You could have offerred to charge him in pink fluffy rhinos.

10:12 am

FMitch

Maybe the pink rhinos would be a good gimmick?

10:12 am

tragicstud

i really can't think of anything :(

10:13 am

J. C.

MRP - why does your little icon beside your nam indicate you're male, when you're not? At least I think it does - not sure. There is another one in a lighter blue?

10:13 am

tragicstud

it's crazy, when she is online i'm chatty mc chatterson

10:13 am

Vicuna

I really don't want to go where this is leading, though...

10:13 am

J. C.

Erm - make that 'name.' :P

10:13 am

FMitch

lol - crossover of posts :)

10:13 am

tragicstud

grey transends gender jc

10:13 am

Haz1558

No, I think pink fluffy rhinos should be kept innocent as can be.

10:14 am

mrpresident

it doesn't JC, it indicates I am neutral

10:14 am

rururocks

some people are just happy being human...jc

10:14 am

J. C.

Oh - is that grey?

10:14 am

J. C.

HAHAHA - I should use that one.

10:14 am

J. C.

Well use, ruru - that's me.

10:15 am

mrpresident

but I am a female... very much a b**** of a naughty g***!

10:15 am

J. C.

I would use pink (I wear a lot of pink), except then everyone would think I'm female - not quite! ;)

10:15 am

rururocks

having met a rhino head on.. fluffy is not a word that comes to mind

10:15 am

J. C.

Ooh, I'll bet I'm naughtier, MRP - by far! ;)

10:15 am

Vicuna

For a while in my youth our home telephone number was only a couple of digits away from that of a restaurant called "Mama's Big Boy."

10:15 am

Vicuna

Much hilarity ensued.

10:15 am

mrpresident

I like being human, and sexy... cause being grey is sexy

10:15 am

J. C.

10:31 am

J. C.

It's another word for a type of film, tragicstud.

OrangeCat

mrpresident

Haz1558

ae4 - just like the scary ee4, but change first letter

10:53 am

10:53 am

forwardbyfaith

ty Haz

10:53 am

12:33 pm

Uniquity

Dr. Ata! How have you, Hobbit, Sily and Hubby been today?

12:33 pm

nrkii

9 to go, but may have to quit and figure out why my printer is not installing

12:34 pm

Atalante

it#s husband's b'day today, but I haven't seen him yet! hobbit is still smug about making my car seat soaking wet

12:35 pm

Alleyn

nrkii - over the hill just doesn't work. More help needed .........

12:35 pm

Uniquity

Ohhhooo! Happy Merry (Un)Birthday to hubby! And Hobbit has learned well from her smug mother.

12:36 pm

nrkii

alleyn, not his but ***s + consume food

12:36 pm

Atalante

she has. she's had a great day, we discovered a 3 foot long ish dead fish on the beach, which she dragged off very smugly

12:36 pm

Uniquity

Oh my. That is a prize, even for her!

12:37 pm

EvaNadine

*wanders back into the grid*
afternoon babblers

12:37 pm

Atalante

it was! she's so funny, when she *finds* something, she drags it off with such a smug little expression on her face. She's so proud of herself

12:37 pm

Alleyn

So the third letter is........tried everything!

12:37 pm

12:38 pm

Uniquity

I would love to play with Hobbit, I think - she sounds a lovely dog.

12:38 pm

Atalante

she is. I know I'm biased, but she really is. She's a very gentle dog

12:38 pm

Uniquity

Be well, nrkii!

12:39 pm

Uniquity

Cockers are so nice, in my experiences.

12:39 pm

Atalante

some of them can be a bit snappy and grumpy, but most are just fluffballs of fun

12:40 pm

Atalante

12:42 pm

periwinkle

I have or4/5

12:42 pm

12:42 pm

periwinkle

will look for the other

12:42 pm

Alleyn

Thanks. Weird word. Just left with a re5/16. Havr the green one and the tumble drier one. Any help appreciated. Need to go cook

12:43 pm

Atalante

12:43 pm

Atalante

re change something's colour

12:43 pm

Uniquity

Sunshine is grand. Perhaps I should get a wee leash and take the hammy for a walk?

12:43 pm

MonkeyGames

Hi there folks! I'm going to need a little help with my last 6 words. How is everyone?

12:43 pm

Atalante

could you imagine the cuteness?!

12:44 pm

Uniquity

He would just wriggle out...collapsible bones and all. Maybe we could make a little bag for him, and he could hang off Hobbit and go for walks with her?

12:44 pm

periwinkle

not seeing the other or word

12:44 pm

MonkeyGames

re5/16, for example. The one between the all night flight and to repeat... can anyone point me in the right direction?

12:45 pm

Alleyn

Ata - usual clue please. Third letter is?

12:45 pm

Atalante

maybe we could get a hamster ball that could be attached on a lead to Hobbit's collar, and he could trundle along beside her

12:45 pm

MonkeyGames

Peri, I have the natural ***** of things and the same wiord with the last two letters dropped and another inserted.

12:45 pm

Atalante

there isn't one between all night flight and to repeat

12:45 pm

Atalante

d

12:46 pm

MonkeyGames

Hmmm, lemme recheck that...

12:46 pm

periwinkle

sheesh, did not have the natural *****, thought I had typed it in, thanks MG

12:46 pm

Uniquity

ATA! Did you just give a letter? Not of the first two??

12:46 pm

periwinkle

thirsty, brb

12:46 pm

Atalante

well, alleyn asked nicely!

12:46 pm

Uniquity

ATA! Did you just give a letter? Not of the first two??

12:47 pm

MonkeyGames

According to Lickety's there is... after teh flight and before repeat. A 5. Hmmm....

12:47 pm

Krysten

Hey all...have you found that there is a gr word that is not accepted but is part of Lickety?

12:47 pm

MonkeyGames

I mean before flight after repeat.

12:47 pm

Atalante

yes, gr5.20 isn't in the grid

12:47 pm

MonkeyGames

Yes, the gr word is a phantom entry. No such thing really.

12:48 pm

Alleyn

Still not there with this last word. Need the fourth letter pls............starving here

12:50 pm

periwinkle

need help with E words, pls. have eax2, ee, erx2, and eyx2

12:50 pm

Uniquity

It happens because Lickety uses a slightly newer version of enable, so the word counts to his generator but not Dr God's. At least, that used to be true. I assume it still is.

12:50 pm

Alleyn

sorry but now you know i'm desperate

12:50 pm

MonkeyGames

I was afraid of that. I need that too but was too embarrassed to ask. OK, help me out with that one and I'll track the other two down myself...

I know! Lol. I have that one framed :) Butter wouldn't melt

2:08 pm

J. C.

Thank you, Lynxxx - but that doesn't seem to work?

2:08 pm

Lizsark

worked for me :) Thanks again Lynxxx

2:08 pm

J. C.

Oh it did, too - but how? Oh, yes - I see now!

2:08 pm

J. C.

OK - I'm hopeless, it's official.

2:09 pm

Lizsark

Gave me a few H words too :) And yet I am still only two thirds done :)

2:09 pm

J. C.

I commented on it, Liz. ;)

2:09 pm

lynxxx

You just shouldn't try to 'see' the words sometimes

2:09 pm

Lizsark

oh I must go and see

2:09 pm

J. C.

HAHA yes - you might just be right there, lynxxx!

2:09 pm

J. C.

Erm, well shhh if you do. ;)

2:10 pm

Lizsark

Tell me thats not true!!!!!

2:10 pm

J. C.

I don't believe this - I just saw two pitifully obvious words that I haven't seen for looking yet!!!

2:11 pm

J. C.

Where are my reading glasses . . .

2:11 pm

Lizsark

JC if that is the honest truth then I can tell you, you have a really beautiful dog :))

2:11 pm

J. C.

Thank you, LIz - I certainly think so!

2:12 pm

J. C.

When I get around to it, I will make an album for her.

2:12 pm

Lizsark

If slightly better behaved than mine lol

2:12 pm

Lizsark

I would love to see her :)

2:12 pm

J. C.

Erm, well - yes, but then what dog isn't??? ;) HAHAHA!

2:12 pm

Lizsark

OK I asked for that :P

2:13 pm

J. C.

I had to laugh at the photo of you entering Oscar in the Agility event - whatever he's meant to be doing there, I'm sure it isn't what he's actually doing?

2:13 pm

lynxxx

What sort of dog JC?

2:14 pm

J. C.

As someone commented, yes - cliff-leaping should've been an event, he'd ace that.

2:14 pm

Lizsark

At least he's not doing his favourite trick in agility - grab the jump pole and leg it into the distance!

2:14 pm

J. C.

Mongrel, lynxxx - I adopted her from Battersea Animal's Home, a large shelter in south London. All they knew is her mum was a Whippet cross - father unknown. We suspect she's part poodle, what else is anyone's guess!

2:15 pm

Lizsark

I tell you what though JC, Oscar is a monster and a lunatic but he is so gentle with the kids that I can forgive him most things

2:16 pm

J. C.

Awww, bless him - yes, Labradors usually have lovely temperaments and are very protective of their families as well, especially any children!

2:16 pm

lynxxx

Cute, would keep you fit. Know all about Battersea, we get lots of UK progs out here (of the mother country!)

2:16 pm

Lizsark

I wonder how she ended up in there JC.

2:17 pm

J. C.

A friend of mine had a beautiful big Golden Lab - he was very pale blonde. He used to have a habit of gathering sticks as he was walked, and would wind up with as many twigs and small logs in his mouth as he could fit - he'd set them down when he came upon another, then pick them all up again plus the new find, HAHAHA! It was so funny . . .

2:18 pm

Lizsark

Oscar has a penchant for carrying trees around. One day he couldn't find a fallen one so he pulled a fence post up and carried that instead - the farmer was sooooo unimpressed with me!

2:18 pm

lynxxx

perhaps he was building a nest - ?

2:18 pm

Lizsark

ROFL

2:19 pm

Lizsark

why is DOEY not a word lol? Oscar has doey eyes

2:20 pm

J. C.

She was given up along with all her littermates, Liz. Someone whose dog had had an accidental litter they couldn't find homes for - irresponsible with the mother, I guess. I'm a big advocate of spaying and neutering. There are so many lovely dogs being put down all the time for lack of homes - the need is so great. That's why I could never buy a purebred puppy.

2:20 pm

Lizsark

Lynxxx? Do you have the Q's yet?

2:21 pm

J. C.

Yes Liz - I thought that. 'Doey' should be a word, as in 'doe-eyed.' Not according to this puzzle, though . . . I'll have to try it next time I play Literati or Word Racer, if the opportunity presents.

2:21 pm

lynxxx

qu4.9 is a heifer, then its plural

2:21 pm

Lizsark

I see where you are coming from there. I just had a bad time with the springer we fostered. He savaged one of my beloved cats and had a real go at my old golden cocker. It kind of put me off getting a rescue for permanent but thats definitely what I will think about if and when the time comes.

2:22 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . 'hodge' isn't a word?

2:22 pm

Lizsark

Oh! Slaps head! Lynxx I always always forget the plurals! DOH

J. C.

Oh no, Liz - that's terrible! Both my dogs (the lovely little girl I had before my present one) and my cat are all rescues from the same shelter. So you see, there are lots of lovely little dogs to be had there . . .

2:23 pm

J. C.

Or in any shelter, of course.

2:23 pm

J. C.

Your poor cat - was he OK?

2:23 pm

Lizsark

I know you're right. It was just a bad situation and I shouldn't let it put me off.

2:24 pm

J. C.

Oh for the love of dogs - two more painfully obvious words I never saw before for looking! :P Right, that's it - think I need a vacation!

2:24 pm

Lizsark

Yes, thankfully Ted (aka Mr Bear lol) was ok after some antibiotics and cuddles. He was a bit of a bruiser himself to be honest, but at the same time he was my pride and joy.

2:25 pm

J. C.

Awww, yes - well it's awful when any animal is injured! I always feel so sorry for them! I cried when I ran over a toad with my riding mower, when we first moved into this place - god, did that upset me! :(

2:25 pm

Lizsark

Oh my god! I'd have had a fit! Poor you, poor toad :(

2:26 pm

Lizsark

Right, I'm off to think up some more ideas for fundraising...have fun everyone. Lynxx, thanks for the clues :) and JC - can't wait to see the photos :)

2:27 pm

J. C.

I did, Liz - it was awful. Two of its legs were cut off, the poor thing! I was in tears!!! I had no choice but to back over him and finish him off for his own good. I felt horrible - I was a mess for a while after that! I had to have Mike help me - I could not go back out there and clean it up.

2:27 pm

J. C.

You'd have to add me, LIz - my albums are private, for obvious reasons. I have yet to make one for her, though.

2:28 pm

Lizsark

Oh ok - I have no idea how to do that but I'll have a go if you dont min me seeing :)

2:28 pm

lynxxx

bye Liz

2:28 pm

J. C.

Well, I have a lot of work to do yet - I'm in the process of uploading all our photos from the recent trip - you know.

2:28 pm

Lizsark

Bye all :)

2:28 pm

J. C.

But getting time to see to any of it's been a trick!

2:28 pm

J. C.

Cheerio, Liz . . .

2:30 pm

lynxxx

I'm off too JC, Stewart, my grey, keeps hanging around, time for morning walk. Byee

2:30 pm

There is no gr5/20. It's a mistake on lickety's list.

3:27 pm

hlj25950

TY Vic

3:27 pm

Vicuna

Can't have you pulling your hair out.

3:27 pm

hlj25950

i think it's supposed to be grody for anyone who wants it

3:28 pm

hlj25950

You know I do that at just the slightest annoyance

3:28 pm

Vicuna

Totally, dude. Gag me with a spoon.

Afternoon again everyone, I am back from gym...and trying to get the last 40... :( its getting hard

oook JV and cherly are here, spluttering to life.

3:35 pm

I think most people have finished.

J. C.

Hi, chertyq63 . . .

3:35 pm

cherlyq63

hi

3:35 pm

J. C.

JV?

3:36 pm

redturtlehead

JC, I make a lot of typos.

3:36 pm

J. C.

I've 23 words left to go . . .

3:36 pm

J. C.

Same here, redturtlehead - I'm infamous for them.

3:36 pm

cherlyq63

at least I am not the only one with sp problems today

3:36 pm

redturtlehead

I have 39 but I am not using the list.

3:36 pm

cherlyq63

12 here

3:37 pm

stidmama

hello all, taking a small break from reading....

3:37 pm

stidmama

hello again JC -- feeling better?

3:37 pm

redturtlehead

Hi Stid!

3:38 pm

stidmama

down to 34, I think I am ready for the list.

3:39 pm

cherlyq63

gotta run, time for school to be out, dd wants a ride home

3:39 pm

redturtlehead

I may have to resort to it too. apparently there is an issue with a gr5 that does not exist.

3:39 pm

cherlyq63

careful stidmama, its got at least one phantom or ghost on it

3:40 pm

J. C.

Hello again, stidmama - yes thanks, getting there!

3:40 pm

stidmama

ah yes, it's a gr 5/20, modern slang for "disgusting"

3:40 pm

stidmama

only one cherly, easily found and easily ignored.

3:41 pm

J. C.

Erm - I tried that gr5,20 you're suggesting, stidmama - and it didn't work? Unless it's something other than what I'm assuming you mean . . .

3:41 pm

stidmama

love it when the words I am missing are the roots of the longer ones I have!

3:41 pm

cherlyq63

alot of those this time

3:41 pm

redturtlehead

It doesnt exist JC.

3:42 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA yes - I've done that. Even worse, stidmama - I've found some really obscure words I've learnt through playing word games on Yahoo, yet missed blindingly obvious ones! :P

3:42 pm

Bethjt

Is anyone having problems with the second gr5. I got the clue from earlier. Am I just blind or is it a problem with the website?

3:42 pm

stidmama

gr 5/20 is the one that is in lickety, but enable is too old to catch it.

3:42 pm

stidmama

hello beth. the second gr 5 exists, but not as one that babble recognizes.

3:43 pm

J. C.

I only have one gr word - gr4,7.

3:43 pm

redturtlehead

Now, i have 34.

3:43 pm

stidmama

the only other gr is 5/14 a sort of grain I think

3:43 pm

stidmama

go red go!

3:44 pm

J. C.

Oh yes - I'm blind! I have that grain one, stidmama . . .

3:44 pm

stidmama

go JC go!

3:45 pm

stidmama

much quicker grid today than yesterday (for which I am grateful -- much still to do before I leave in a couple hours)

3:45 pm

redturtlehead

I am missing the grain and wow cant see it. Clearly not Quinoa...

3:46 pm

J. C.

Grrrr . . . gr5,20? (No, I know it's not 'grrrr', HAHA!)

3:46 pm

stidmama

LOL JC!

3:46 pm

J. C.

It starts with 'gr' red. No, not quinoa, nor spelt, nor kamut, etc.

3:47 pm

redturtlehead

too bad it wasnt. I always get thrown off when oohs or aahs is in the grid!

3:47 pm

stidmama

well, since it's not a word that counts, would be willing to share the ghostly gr 5/20

3:47 pm

J. C.

Think porridge, red . . .

3:47 pm

redturtlehead

that did it JC< thanks!

3:47 pm

stidmama

I like "psst"

3:48 pm

J. C.

I'm confused, stidmama - how can a word in the grid not count?

3:48 pm

stidmama

we don't call porridge gr 5 in the states JC!

3:48 pm

J. C.

You're very welcome, red! :) Glad I could help . . .

3:48 pm

torgone

or "pfft"

3:48 pm

J. C.

I know, stidmama - it's a 'meal' there.

3:48 pm

stidmama

because the "dictionary" that Dr G uses doesn't include a lot of words in common use (and does include many that are quite questionable)

3:48 pm

stidmama

hello tor!

3:49 pm

redturtlehead

And a variety of foreign words.

3:49 pm

J. C.

Yes, I've been thinking that, stidmama . . .

3:49 pm

redturtlehead

TOrgone, Hello.

3:49 pm

J. C.

Indeed, red . . .

3:49 pm

torgone

3:49 pm

stidmama

3:49 pm

redturtlehead

3:49 pm

torgone

A late night flight

3:49 pm

J. C.

Furrin? Yes - what's that?

3:49 pm

stidmama

3:49 pm

stidmama

stidmama

Oh gosh, my normal phantom is here for real.

AHA!! down to ONE! (thanks tor)

3:52 pm

Oh my god - now I'm finding obvious ones I couldn't see earlier, for looking!

3:52 pm

redturtlehead

J. C.

Ooh - 18 left!

I may actually finish this one . . .

3:54 pm

torgone

Yay stid!

3:54 pm

stidmama

3:54 pm

stidmama

can stay five minutes to clue.

3:54 pm

stidmama

go JC go! did you get the list?

3:54 pm

redturtlehead

congrats Stid, you are amazingly quick.

3:54 pm

torgone

I need that stid

3:54 pm

J. C.

Stuck on gr5,20 - what was that about a phantom?

3:55 pm

J. C.

It is a word in the puzzle, isn't it?

3:55 pm

torgone

There is no gr5/20!

3:55 pm

redturtlehead

tor, its like the strees of La **** In texas, but with a ur instead.

3:55 pm

stidmama

the gr 5/20 doesn't count. it's "groat"

3:55 pm

stidmama

oh fiddle. *runs to PB* the 5/20 is "grody" *sigh*

3:55 pm

torgone

Uh oh ..

3:55 pm

J. C.

I entered it - it's the 5,14.

3:56 pm

stidmama

will eat my lunch in this location, shall I? LOL

3:56 pm

torgone

Thanks red

3:56 pm

redturtlehead

Stiddy!!!!! Oh gosh. We should bake a pie.

3:56 pm

J. C.

Does that mean we'll all have one word missing?

3:56 pm

stidmama

should not allow figners to type when my brain is distracted by whiny dog.

3:56 pm

J. C.

Awww - what sort of dog?

3:56 pm

stidmama

not here, JC. you can enter it, but it won't make a difference either way

3:56 pm

torgone

It means Lickety's list has one extra.

3:56 pm

redturtlehead

No JC, in lickety you will but not on the grid.

3:57 pm

stidmama

german "dumb as a post" shepherd...

3:57 pm

J. C.

Oh, I see . . . thanks, torgone.

3:57 pm

J. C.

Really? They're usually such intelligent dogs!

3:57 pm

redturtlehead

I have the dumb dog, but I do like him.

3:58 pm

stidmama

actually, he's a lovely fellow, but with my inability to exericise much he is often just bored to tears. A three-year old with ADD has about as much patience. perfectly lovely and normal for his breed, but ... he really wishes I had more energy.

3:58 pm

stidmama

3:58 pm

redturtlehead

4:02 pm

J. C.

No, that's 6,24 - I have that.

4:02 pm

J. C.

This is 6.21 I'm after - starting with 'her.'

4:03 pm

J. C.

Erm - '6,21.'

4:03 pm

redturtlehead

dont think I have it.

4:03 pm

J. C.

Oh god - I seem to be all messed up somehow?

4:03 pm

Oh no - don't mind me.

Well, I should read for another hour before I leave for class.

Hey Stid, say hi to your Mum & dad from me :))

4:09 pm

stidmama

thanks for the lifeline, friends!

4:09 pm

J. C.

HAHAHAHAHA - that's only because I have it set to 'moderate' instead of 'safe', Liz.

4:10 pm

stidmama

hello binker! and adieu! *poof*

4:10 pm

J. C.

Shall I set it to 'safe' for you - or can you change your settings/

4:10 pm

stidmama

(thanks liz, I will)

4:10 pm

J. C.

Hi, new binker5 . . .

4:10 pm

J. C.

I'm new too - to this. I'm old, otherwise. Nearly 50!

4:11 pm

Lizsark

LOL I can change my settings at the drop of a hat - actually I just did!!!! Still laughing! :P

4:11 pm

J. C.

Oh fabulous - so you've seen it then? :P

4:11 pm

Lizsark

It was hard to miss

4:11 pm

J. C.

It's at the very end of my photostream - it's one of the two snaps taken in the hotel stairway.

4:12 pm

Lizsark

Now behave!!!! :P

4:12 pm

J. C.

Ooh, why *THANK YOU*, Liz!!! :) You're good for my ego, you are! HAHAHA!

4:12 pm

Lizsark

Along with some of the comments lol

4:12 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA, yes - from my nutty friends!

4:13 pm

Lizsark

Right I still have 9 words left and I'm quitting right now before Oscar mugs me completely - something tells me he needs to go out (or could it be that he's just chasing his tail madly and barking loudly just be for the fun of it!)

4:14 pm

forwardbyfaith

can someone tell me what "e" the er4,6 starts from?

4:14 pm

J. C.

Does he ever sit still?

4:14 pm

J. C.

Liz - have a question?

4:14 pm

J. C.

Whatever happened to his head? :(

4:14 pm

Lizsark

Not often JC, not often :)

4:14 pm

J. C.

Were those tumours I saw on it?

4:15 pm

Lizsark

Oh did you see that picture? Wasn't it awful! He had two cists the size of golf balls that got infected. He had to have them removed. He had 32 metal staples. You can still see the scar even now

4:15 pm

torgone

The leftmost one

4:15 pm

J. C.

Oh, cysts - they looked awful, yes! :(

4:15 pm

J. C.

Yes, I noticed the scar is still visible . . .

4:15 pm

J. C.

What did he do to the ligament in his hind leg?

4:17 pm

Lizsark

they were horrible and they went right down to his skull bones. As for the leg - he had his cruciate ligament replaced after a particularly mad leap off a cliff and severed it.

4:18 pm

J. C.

Stuck on ho4,7 - the second to last one, I think?

4:18 pm

J. C.

Starting with 'hor' . . .

4:18 pm

J. C.

Oh no - the poor dog! :( He looks so miserable . . .

4:18 pm

J. C.

Ouch!!! God - he must've caused himself some agony?!

4:19 pm

Lizsark

He wasn't a happy bunny but more because he had to be kept in than anything else. He was on sedatives and a dap diffuser and all sorts.

4:19 pm

J. C.

Ahhh . . . wondered how he was so 'sedate!'

4:19 pm

Lizsark

He didn't give the impression of being in pain to be honest. He was great at the vets - let them mall him around without any fuss. He's a bit of a star like that :)

4:20 pm

J. C.

Awww - sound like he's very friendly and easygoing?

4:20 pm

cherlyq63

back

4:20 pm

Lizsark

Oh he is. He's an angel (if you ignoreall the bad stuff lol)! Wouldn't be without him for the world :) Anyhow I could talk about him all night but I really have to go let him out before disaster strikes!!!

4:20 pm

J. C.

Welcome back, cherty . . .

4:21 pm

Lizsark

see you all soon :)

4:21 pm

HAHAHA yes - get! I'm out of here soon as I'm finished!

5:45 pm

J. C.

I'm not sure, BabbleRabble - I'm new and not sure how to read these things yet. It looks like an F word, 4/5? Not sure which though - that, it doesn't tell me!

5:46 pm

AsGreen

ok gang, I gotta go - lol Dorens, I'm glad that he's nice to you!! I'll be back after bedtime (9pm EST)

5:47 pm

BabbleRabble

5:47 pm

J. C.

Now I've logged back in, to find it's telling me I have one word left to find - how that can be, I have no idea?!

5:47 pm

Dorens

5:48 pm

BabbleRabble

quite a picture all right

5:49 pm

kje

oh wow, asg... CUTE!

5:49 pm

J. C.

Yes, BabbleRabble - but I'm not sure what this means. They're all dark grey (almost black) except for one which is white - saying 4/5 beside the R in the second column from left, second tile up from the bottom.

5:49 pm

BabbleRabble

okay progress

5:51 pm

J. C.

Then in 'Word Stats' it has one white space, with a green square to the left of it with a '6' in it - the white space says '11/12' - no idea what this means?

5:53 pm

torgone

How many points do you have jc?

5:53 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . it's saying '1143 pts', torgone.

5:54 pm

BabbleRabble

5:54 pm

J. C.

Thank you - had that already, but just did and it's now congratulating me with fireworks AGAIN!

5:54 pm

J. C.

Yes, BabbleRabble - but I'd entered that word already! Strange, this is . . .

5:55 pm

torgone

You're lucky .. You got fireworks twice in one day!

5:55 pm

BabbleRabble

I was doing stats and tor was doing it right

5:55 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA, yes torgone!

5:56 pm

torgone

The 11/12 meant you had 11 of the 12 possible 6 letter words

5:56 pm

BabbleRabble

I think it was all a ploy, J.C.

5:57 pm

BabbleRabble

just kidding

5:57 pm

J. C.

Could be, BabbleRabble - could be! :P

5:58 pm

Dorens

hi krista... small and not as easy as I'd like it to be

5:58 pm

torgone

The 4/5 by the R meant you had 4 of the 5 words starting from that tile

5:58 pm

kje

hi krista! just nudged you in scrabble

5:58 pm

BabbleRabble

hello, Krista, don't blink or you will be finished

Pinikula

9:00 pm

sandyloo

9:00 pm

Jacula

9:01 pm

Pinikula

If they lay Cadbury eggs...send me some!!!!!

9:01 pm

Jacula

LOL, Herin. Iove that term. It's totally daft but very descriptive. Hens do tend to cackle when they lay, especially if it's a big egg and it hurts.

9:02 pm

herinfernallady

Pini if they weren't so pricey Id send you some

9:02 pm

Pinikula

9:03 pm

Pinikula

brb - Koda seems to think he should have my attention...

9:04 pm

Jacula

I heard a term that amused me on TV the other night. An Irish man, just returned to the emerald isle, was saying he'd had 5 wives and his brother, who hadn't seen him for 20 years, said, 'FIVE wives? I bet there's no hair growing on YOUR knees!'

9:04 pm

Jacula

I'd not heard that expression before and it absolutely tickled me.

9:04 pm

theycallmeposh

...ew.

9:05 pm

Minveryork

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

9:05 pm

Pinikula

9:06 pm

Minveryork

I guess we're all done since I see no clues in the chog

9:07 pm

Pinikula

9:07 pm

Jacula

herinfernallady

Pinikula

9:08 pm

herinfernallady

9:08 pm

Pinikula

theycallmeposh

it was getting warmer here, almost sandal weather like 5 days ago, but then mother nature decided to throw a monkey wrench into that plan and send a freaking snowstorm

9:22 pm

J. C.

Jacula - now what are YOU doing up at this ungodly hour in this country, that IS the question?! ;)

9:22 pm

Jacula

That's the best news I've heard for a while, Herin. So glad the fires are gone but stilll totally shocked that many were started by arsonists.

9:22 pm

herinfernallady

it means that the firefighters can go home to their families if they are interstate. It means people can now grieve and rebuild

9:22 pm

Pinikula

JC...key prints in your forehead yet? :)

9:22 pm

herinfernallady

They have not gone gone just contained and really well too. The rain is helping.

9:23 pm

Pinikula

(J)ust (C)hecking!!!!

9:23 pm

Jacula

JC - I said earlier. I went to bed at 10.30pm last night and slep for virtually 12 hours. I'm at 'the time of life' when sleep patterns go to pot and become very unpredictable.:(

9:23 pm

Minveryork

WHOA! Did I just say I have 20?Now I have eight left!

9:25 pm

Jacula

Herin - I suppose the oil in the eucalyptus trees is very flammable and you haven't had rain coming down like stair rods or even gently for hours like we get in UK?

I was reading in the paper earlier about how we're alll going to get the fastest broadband ever that's going to run our homes. It'll deal with the air, the contents of the fridge, dispense with the need to make shopping lists, open and close our doors, windows and curtains. Erm... what happens if it goes wrong? Can we override it?

Speaking of pets, I put Margaret Minipig the Hairy Guineapig back into the hutch with her sisters today, 4 months after her hysterectomy.

9:42 pm

Uneaixoise

aawww, was she happy to be back with her sibs?

9:42 pm

9:43 pm

Jacula

I've noticed that her womb removal op seems to have left her with urinary incontinence, though. I had to trim her fur earlier and will need to keep an eye on her rear end.

9:43 pm

Pinikula

Must be a "special" thing, eh, JC?

9:44 pm

he + 3/4 of Bambi

9:45 pm

Minveryork

That he 5/14 word is he 6/24 minus a vowel Pinikula.

9:46 pm

Jacula

Pink - think of the he6.24 (the one who takes notice) and remove a vowel.

9:46 pm

Minveryork

Go cherlyq63 go!

9:46 pm

Pinikula

where do these words come from?????

9:46 pm

Pinikula

(thx)

9:47 pm

J. C.

Jacula - spay incontinence isn't uncommon in dogs right after the surgery, either - but it will sometimes be OK once they're healed.

9:47 pm

Minveryork

yw

9:47 pm

J. C.

Fortunately, my dog didn't have that trouble after she was done . . .

9:48 pm

Jacula

Pink - it's a Yiddish word for Jewish school(s).

9:48 pm

J. C.

Or my cat - they're both females.

9:48 pm

Jacula

Hmm, well my youngest child is 22 this month.

9:49 pm

J. C.

I was surprised to see a guinea pig could be spayed - they're so small! I used to have some as a kid.

9:49 pm

Pinikula

9:50 pm

JC - it's a huge risk giving a guinea pig any kind of operation but we had no choice with Margaret Minipig. She had a cyst the size of a golfball on each of her ovaries. For more on that, click on her on my flickrpics in my profile.

It was a fairly easy grid for seasoned Babblers and word puzzlers.

10:21 pm

Well, no, but iI have that name in my profile. I've just found this place in the last couple of months.

10:24 pm

Jacula

Cher - he + the antlered animal with the letters moved around + pluralling consonant. Or, if you're a gardener, the start of the word for ivy but with a different last letter.

10:26 pm

Jacula

Oh, okay. Welcome to the world of madness that is Babble, bud.

10:26 pm

Oh, is that what he6 are? I hadn't looked it up. I'm learning so many new words. And thanks, Jac.

10:37 pm

Hey, congrats, cherlyq!

YAY cherlyq!!!

10:38 pm

sandyloo

hey can someone explain todays icon -I understand 'race cars' but what is (Autumn moon)?

10:39 pm

Jacula

I don't go to the quiz, only take part in their paper quizzes. I don't go to the quiz for real because I cannot stand my Mum's next-door neighbour who is a know-it-all, back seat driver, husband scolder, mistress of the bitchy remark etc.

10:39 pm

Pinikula

autumn moon is the babbler that suggested it, sandy

10:39 pm

jillibus

Autumn Moon is the Babbler who suggested the icon theme, sandy

10:39 pm

Jacula

However, I've been told that the vicar's team always wins...

LOL oK, we all know how dopey I am!! Thanks Jilli

10:40 pm

Jacula

10:40 pm

10:40 pm

10:45 pm

Pinikula

don't really need to knit, rbud...could use old stockings...just stuff and put nipples on them...then drape around neck like winter scarf... LOL

10:46 pm

rbud

ROTFL! What a mental picture!

10:47 pm

Christine

what are these scarves? and where can we see them?

10:47 pm

Pinikula

I can try and find it and forward it on, if you like...

10:48 pm

Christine

why is it taking so long to accept the words?

10:48 pm

Pinikula

Pinikula

gr5/20 is a mistake

10:54 pm

rbud

I can do better than stuffed stockings, I'll bet. ;)

10:54 pm

Jacula

Anyway, as I was saying, we need to knit some of those and go to the church quiz to stop the vicar's team winning every bloody week.

10:54 pm

Pinikula

I mean...it's not part of the 98 count words

10:55 pm

God - am I still on here? Are YOU still here, Jacula?!

10:58 pm

sandyloo

I did that the first try then it goes to tinyurl home page

10:59 pm

Jacula

Jilli - if I make the scarves and brave my Mum's neighbour I want to break commandment 6 for every time I see/hear, I promise to take photos or a video.

10:59 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA - checked the computer and realised I was stil logged in. :P

10:59 pm

sandyloo

that is with the second address i will scroll back to check tho

10:59 pm

Pinikula

wb JC...nice nap???

10:59 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, I feel quite disurbed just checking the commandments now to find that one is no. 6 rather than no.1.

10:59 pm

J. C.

Erm, yes - until I got up, needing more medicine.

11:00 pm

Pinikula

key prints in forehead yet?

have lots of work to do but am thinking ahead to 'wine o'clock' lol I hate housework

11:02 pm

J. C.

Ooh, I just found you on flickr, Pini . . .

11:03 pm

Pinikula

cute term "wine o'clock"!

11:03 pm

Pinikula

uh oh...

11:03 pm

Jacula

Pink - I went to Church school and have studied enough. I'd just forgotten over the years.So, I see that the heads of church at that time, who interpretted the commandments, made sure they'd be heard.

11:03 pm

sandyloo

for me it is 5pm

11:03 pm

J. C.

You have an add . . .

11:04 pm

pini, we also have 'beer o'clock' here in Aus and once again it varies from individual to individual

11:05 pm

rbud

Hubby calls it "beer-thirty.) :p

11:05 pm

Jacula

If there is a God, in the sense that I understand it, he would not have put the commandments in that order. There again, I always thought we were just like tiny ants in a big bell jar in a lab. If I'm right about that, then there is no God, just people from elsewhere in the universe, experimenting with us. And our lives are just seconds in theirs.

11:06 pm

Jacula

winoe-o-clock and beer-thirty. LOL.

11:06 pm

J. C.

What about gin?

11:07 pm

Pinikula

COOL!!! thx JC! :)

I used to love my Tanqeray, yum. Way back when.

jillibus

I mean at 5 pm, not now

11:09 pm

J. C.

Oh, of course not! HAHAHA!

11:09 pm

J. C.

You would've found it anyway, I'm sure.

11:09 pm

Pinikula

What? No faith???

11:10 pm

J. C.

Faith?

11:10 pm

jillibus

I'm brain-dead at this point -- library day -- new computer system to study for imminent change, plus computer system crash late in the day

11:10 pm

Pinikula

that I'd find it on my own?

11:10 pm

Pinikula

poor jilli!

11:10 pm

J. C.

Of course I knew you'd find it on your own . . .

11:11 pm

Jacula

Pink - I do have faith, but not in the 'God' handed down in recent times.

11:11 pm

jillibus

so jac, what's admonishment #6? Spare me having to look it up, please

11:11 pm

Pinikula

(I concur, jac)...but the faith reference was to JC in that I'd ultimately find his "last picture"!

11:12 pm

Jacula

jilli - thou shalt not kill.

11:12 pm

J. C.

Second to last, Pini . . .

11:12 pm

J. C.

On the second page of the 'stream'.

11:12 pm

Jacula

That's on the internet on a site for kids and not looked up in my Bible, btw.

11:12 pm

jillibus

ah, thanks, jac. Tough one.

11:13 pm

Pinikula

JC!

11:13 pm

Jacula

Jilli - surely that should come first before all the 'thou should not have any God before me' etc., stuff?

11:14 pm

J. C.

Yes, Pini?

11:14 pm

Pinikula

I refrain from saying any more! LOL

11:14 pm

Jacula

No wonder everyone is fighting and religion has caused more wars than anything else!

11:14 pm

jillibus

well, I guess God wantd to set up his/her credentials first.

11:15 pm

J. C.

Erm - OK?! :P

11:15 pm

Pinikula

ROFL

11:15 pm

J. C.

Yes, Pini - I'm a naughty one! As many here would know, if the realised it's not (J)esus (C)hrist behind this ID.

11:15 pm

Jacula

But the setting up of the credentials, whatever religion you are, surely sets up the warcry for all eternity?

11:16 pm

J. C.

Any from here, that is . . .

11:16 pm

jillibus

we're just evolved chimps and it's in the nature of beasts to fight

11:16 pm

Pinikula

so, I, um...er...noticed ROFL

11:16 pm

jillibus

I don't believe in religion

11:16 pm

J. C.

'If they realised,' that is - excuse my typing!

11:16 pm

Jacula

That's true, jilli.

11:17 pm

Pinikula

oh I understood...remember, I'm fluent in typonese

11:17 pm

J. C.

Good - you'll need to be.

11:17 pm

Jacula

but why is it men that start wars and not women? Or will that change in the future given the booze-fuelled young women of today?

11:17 pm

aebmusica

re8 please

11:17 pm

jillibus

J.C. I wish you were pro so I could see who you are and your flickr pix

11:18 pm

J. C.

That's straight men, Jacula - you don't see us poofters doing that too often! ;)

11:18 pm

jillibus

testosterone poisoning

11:18 pm

Jacula

re8 - one who makes yesterday's meal warm again.

11:18 pm

J. C.

I will be soon, jillibus - once I sort out a PayPal account in a few days.

11:19 pm

aebmusica

ty Jac

11:19 pm

jillibus

oh good, JC (may I leave out the periods?)

11:19 pm

J. C.

There, jillibus - check your Flickr Mail. Happy now? ;)

11:19 pm

Jacula

You poofters, if you are one, J.C., are far more bitchy than any woman ever is.

11:19 pm

J. C.

Of course you may, jilibus . . .

11:19 pm

Jacula

But you make great friend for women.

11:20 pm

J. C.

I am one, Jacula - but how can you say we're all bitchy, any more than all women are?

11:20 pm

Jacula

But you are far more coarse than us.

11:20 pm

J. C.

I don't think I'm bitchy at all . . .

11:21 pm

J. C.

And yes - I'm fairly sure by the age of 49 and many same-sex relationships, that I am one! ;)

11:21 pm

Jacula

J.C. I know a lot of gay men - and the 'female' siders of very bitchy. The more male orientated are total gentlemen and make we women sigh and say, 'What a waste!'

11:21 pm

J. C.

Coarse? Hmmm . . . naughty, yes. I'll admit that!

11:22 pm

J. C.

Oh some can be, certainly . . .

11:22 pm

Pinikula

^5 jac!!!! No kidding!!!!!

11:22 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

May I please have clues for ur5-14 and yo4-8? Thanks

11:23 pm

Pinikula

u + repeat

11:23 pm

Jacula

Also, gay couples, mostly, but not always, seem to take a different stance re being faithful to that of 'straght' couples. Going off somewhere to to whatever, seems to be okay for gay couples. I don't understand that, being a Taurean and jealous.

11:24 pm

Pinikula

yo = sounds like the star wars character (but use 2 cons)

11:24 pm

Jacula

ur5/14 = a command to do it again.

11:24 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . ur5,14 = ur + song, 'The Streets Of ______.' (Think Texas).

11:24 pm

Pinikula

crap...my foot went to sleep!!!

11:24 pm

J. C.

Or what Jacula just said . . .

11:25 pm

Jacula

LOL, Pink. You got cramp and you ned salt. Eat a bag of crisps.

11:25 pm

Pinikula

no, not cramped...just sleeping!!!!

11:25 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . well that's not OK for us, Jacula. Neither for manyh of our friends. Some do that though, sure - and so do some straight couples!

11:26 pm

Pinikula

(tied my shoelace too tight)

11:26 pm

jillibus

Nice pix, JC -- and you dance up a storm!

11:26 pm

J. C.

Ugh - 'many'. My typing is suffering badly now!

11:26 pm

Pinikula

<-- jealous of the storm dancing!!!!

11:26 pm

J. C.

Thank you, jilibus - but shhh, please.

11:26 pm

Jacula

I love my gay friends, but I still can't and don't think I ever will, understand their take on relationships.

11:27 pm

jillibus

jac, you don't have to

11:27 pm

J. C.

Well, I don't think mine is strange at all - it's probably what that of most straight people is. When you're in one, you're committed - or should be. Or else, what's the point? Be single . . .

11:27 pm

Jacula

I know I don't, jilli. But, when I go there at weekends, they confuddle me.

11:28 pm

jillibus

I know and like many gay couples, ditto straight ones.

11:28 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

Thanks pini and Jacula.

11:29 pm

Jacula

J.C. I'm glad you said that. I was hoping to hear that from my friends who've been together for 15 years and 'married' in the 1st year (2nd ones to do it) when it was allowed.

11:29 pm

Jacula

However,whatever they do, they are very together. Long may it be so.

11:30 pm

J. C.

Yes, well - that's up to them, it's their life.

11:31 pm

jillibus

time to change icons -- next theme is race car DRIVERS.

11:32 pm

PAV3

hi Jilli! just finished...

11:32 pm

Pinikula

Sadly, I don't think I'm going to make it to flip...these long days (coordinating a major dept move in addition to my normal work) are killing me...

11:32 pm

Pinikula

hi pav...

11:32 pm

Pinikula

...have a good one and save some words for me!!!!!! NYTOL!

11:33 pm

J. C.

I outgrew that 'need' years ago - sowed my wild oats in my teens and twenties - wouldn't commit to anyone back then, not until I was sure I was ready to and could do so. Finally did the first time as I entered my 30s and was very glad - it was definitely better. Have been in committed relationships mostly, since. In one now I am sure and hoping will last . . .

11:33 pm

herinfernallady

*thats cause pinis really old:P*

11:33 pm

Pinikula

gads, woman...you forgot the apostrophy!!!!!!!

11:33 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA! Good night, Pini - I'm returning to bed in a few minutes myself.

11:33 pm

herinfernallady

Hi too

11:34 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

Thanks J.C. I'm still looking for it.

11:34 pm

Jacula

I think that when 2 male egos get together, 2 strong men who know wo they are, if not what they 'should 'be' this is what my friends are doing.

11:34 pm

J. C.

Looking for what, gapeach?

11:35 pm

Pinikula

(not THAT old...just a one-person office managing 2 departments in the middle of a move...gads 10 hrs a day is getting to be a bit much - tired of the "I need you to do something right now; so, disregard whatever you're doing; then report to me on what you've accomplished on the things I told you to set aside!")

11:35 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

The ur5-14.

11:35 pm

J. C.

Not sure I follow, Jacula? Then I am awfully tired, on top of being sick right now - so make allowances, please! ;)

11:36 pm

Pinikula

ur + self (change middle cons)

11:36 pm

J. C.

Makes me tired just reading about that, Pini . . .

11:36 pm

Pinikula

* poof *

11:36 pm

J. C.

Then I'm more than tired right now! :P

11:36 pm

herinfernallady

poor PIni i was just teasing

11:36 pm

Jacula

You follow me, J.C? Then off to bed with you and dormez bien!

11:36 pm

11:37 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Pac and every one

11:37 pm

J. C.

Yes, you sleep well too, Jacula!

11:37 pm

Pinikula

no harm, no foul, herin!!! Honest!!! * big grin * my babble buds keep me sane...go figure!

11:37 pm

J. C.

Erm - that's if you're actually going to sleep?

11:37 pm

gibsongirl39

I thought I could figure these last 3 words by myself, but I must ask for help. I am missing re4/5, re5/16, and ty5/16. Any clues will be appreciated.

11:37 pm

Jacula

Sun's not up yet, JC and so this vampire can roam for a while longer.

11:38 pm

PAV3

ty5 16 = past tense of last ty4 6

11:38 pm

flosey

ty5 is pt of previous word

11:38 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

Thanks, pini.

11:39 pm

Jacula

re4/5 - the lake grass with the letters changed around, sounds like what you do with a book.

11:39 pm

J. C.

Is jilibus still here?

11:39 pm

J. C.

I know, Jacula - but will be soon . . .

11:39 pm

jillibus

yes, JC -- just got back with my new icon and writeup

11:39 pm

J. C.

My dog is snoring and dreaming at my feet . . .

11:40 pm

J. C.

Smart little girl, she is . . .

11:40 pm

flosey

re5 - one is re + not wet, the other is re + to change colour of something

11:40 pm

jillibus

your dog, JC?

11:40 pm

J. C.

Oh, Jilibus - there you are. I sent you an add on Flickr, but don't see you in the list of who has added me as a contact? I thought you'd accepted it?

11:40 pm

PAV3

re+ not wet, re+to color, or re4+ sometime vowel...re4 being the thing used on wooden musical instruments to allow sound thru...or Robert Re4 and Flo HEnderson were on the Brady Bunch I think...

11:40 pm

Jacula

re5/16 is either 'to remove the water from again' or'to recolour'.

11:40 pm

J. C.

Yes, jilibus - my dog.

11:41 pm

jillibus

I will, JC -- not very adept at flickr

11:41 pm

herinfernallady

Hi too every Lovely person I missed

11:41 pm

It's easy, jilibus - just log in there, then you'll see a notice of a new message in the upper right part of the page - where your name is. Click that, it will take you to where you accept the add - and add me as a 'friend'.

11:45 pm

11:51 pm

sandyloo

Pav, what is confectioner's sugar? never heard that term in Aus

11:52 pm

herinfernallady

Icing Sugar

11:52 pm

PAV3

confectioner's = baking sugar I think...superfine, powdery

11:52 pm

J. C.

Yes, Pav3 - sound like lovely little dogs! :)

11:52 pm

sandyloo

ah that must be what we call castor sugar

11:52 pm

herinfernallady

Bzzz wrong. Confectioners suger is icing sugar Superfine is castor

11:53 pm

sandyloo

thanks herin now i know exactly

11:53 pm

J. C.

I have a little mongrel myself, adopted from the Battersea Animals' Home. Her mother was a Whippet cross, her father unknown. We suspect she's part Poodle, and what else is anyone's guess. She looks like a small, fine-boned Labrador, sort of - nearly solid black and smooth-coated. Just a tiny, subtle white streak on her chest, no other markings.

11:54 pm

sandyloo

Herin does it mean that all purpose flour is self raising?

11:54 pm

westford

J.C. hello did she get the Battersea Cough?

11:54 pm

I have both a Bachelor's and Master's of Business Administration from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. My family has summered there while we were growing in Michigan. I was the first to make it a more permanent home until moving to Phoenix for $
