bye jilli, take care of you and sleep well, dear friend

2:16 am

sandyloo

jillibus

7 weeks is better -- 8 is a fear period

2:17 am

sprite

sandy, we know, and the breeder knows too. It is no problem, lol... just impatience here. Easily contained though.

2:17 am

sandyloo

they say that between 5 to 8 weeks is a vital time in their developement

2:17 am

sprite

the 8th week is a fear period indeed. We will pick Terra up after the 8th week is over.

I did, sandy. Great story too!

2:22 am

HI Babs

sprite

2:29 am

westford

hello bab

2:32 am

westford

ty sprite thought you meant whore lol

2:34 am

sprite

oh *giggle*. No, I meant ho*** but that is not in the grid. And I looked up the bo5 and found it means what I thought.

2:35 am

lynxxx

how funny! a word which actually means what it seems.

2:35 am

sprite

almost comes as a shock, lol

2:38 am

lynxxx

BR - is it the so6.21 going alone?

BabbleRabble

2:45 am

sprite

thanks for that one

2:46 am

lynxxx

as a wouldbe Queensland politician famously said here - 'please explain' the chesterwhilemobile connection (sounds like a couch on wheels)

2:49 am

BabbleRabble

Chester White: large white hog: a large white hog with drooping ears belonging to a breed developed in Pennsylvania

2:50 am

3:04 am

BabbleRabble

3:08 am

sprite

thanks BabbleRabble, back with goodies :)

3:10 am

BabbleRabble

Today I Will Remember
Present pain is endurable.

3:11 am

sandyloo

are you not well either babble?

3:11 am

sprite

as long as one has enough energy to endure it, that is true

3:12 am

BabbleRabble

I babble a lot, sandy

3:12 am

sandyloo

I feel sorry for you both , I dont have pain but Nicky is always in pain with her shoulder so I know how bad it can be

3:12 am

herinfernallady

done dusted time for studdy. Hugs all round

3:13 am

sprite

nice job, lady, and have fun studying

3:13 am

herinfernallady

Thanks to lickety

3:13 am

herinfernallady

I will do hugs

3:14 am

BabbleRabble

good luck, herin

3:14 am

sprite

for what it is worth, BabbleRabble, I am always happy when you are babbling with us

3:14 am

sandyloo

do well and take care herin

3:15 am

BabbleRabble

the stuff in my profile seems like it was written for me. took decades and decades to learn some of it

3:15 am

BabbleRabble

means much, spite. thanks

3:16 am

sandyloo

I read that babble

3:16 am

sprite

your sharing it helps me. I have copied your profile text, as I do often, and it couldn't have come at a better time for me. Lots to learn for me there as well.

3:16 am

sandyloo

every time i come on here, I learn something, thats for sure

3:17 am

sprite

and as long as we learn new things, we are not just alive, but living, sandy

3:19 am

sandyloo

very true, very true- I feel slightly hopeful for Nicky today- her specialist cancelled tomorrows appointment because he is looking into something for Nicky about an alternative to a fusion - he changed it to thursday

3:19 am

BabbleRabble

I have to laugh at the number of times I have to ask myself. "what the heck are you doing now?"

3:19 am

sprite

ah that is certainly a good sign. Will keep fingers crossed for her.

3:20 am

sandyloo

Lol babble , I think we all feel like that from time to time

3:20 am

sprite

lol, I can relate to that, BabbleRabble.

3:21 am

BabbleRabble

I will add Nicky to a prayer chain and wish her the best

3:22 am

sandyloo

Thank you bab, a fusion will give her a very permanent disability

3:23 am

sandyloo

But I always say there are a lot of people that have much worse to cope with so she should always be grateful for what she has

3:24 am

sprite

that is one side, true. On the other hand she has her own pain and loss to deal with and should be allowed to feel and mourn it.

3:25 am

sandyloo

I do understand that sprite but I try to get her to take a positive attitude

3:25 am

lynxxx

Back from dinner. I too hope for a good outcome for her Sandy

3:26 am

sprite

wb lyn, was it good?

3:26 am

sandyloo

I am determined that there will be!!

3:26 am

sandyloo

Lynxx, I am hungry now

3:27 am

sprite

as long as you can take her pain seriously and make room for it, helping her stay positive is a great thing to do for her, sandy

3:27 am

lynxxx

Salmon & fish patties and salad...light & lovely - just like the day actually

3:27 am

sprite

yummy, that sounds lovely.

3:27 am

sandyloo

I love salmon patties and salad-yum yum one of my favourites

3:28 am

BabbleRabble

I am not a particularly religious person yet recognize the prayer for serenity has much to like

3:28 am

sandyloo

My son is involved with the pentecostal church and it has changed his life very much for the better

3:29 am

BabbleRabble

I yell at God a lot

3:29 am

sandyloo

I am not particularly religious but I love what that church has done for him

3:30 am

sprite

they say the root of the word religion means to connect again. There is no church in this world I feel a part of, but I can feel a connection to something deeper, something truly peaceful.

3:30 am

sprite

lol BabbleRabble, so do I!

3:30 am

sandyloo

sprite, that is how i feel too , very much so

3:32 am

sandyloo

sprite, how did you get such a grasp on the english language?

3:35 am

lynxxx

makes our school french pale in comparison doesn't it Sandy

3:35 am

sandyloo

it sure does lynx

3:35 am

sprite

sorry, telephone call.
I learned a lot through babble, sandy!

3:35 am

sandyloo

Imagine dooing this puzzle in french!! lol

3:36 am

sprite

and I love to read english books, I think that helps a lot too.

3:36 am

joshuavorbis

imagine doing this puzzle in hawaiian - what is it, 14 letters?

3:37 am

sandyloo

yes that would help - do you speak english well?

3:37 am

lynxxx

hi Josh. Really? only 14 letters in their alphabet

3:37 am

sprite

hi josh. I guess half the hawaiian words wouldn't be valid because they are too long, lol.

3:37 am

sandyloo

sprite, dont tell me you speak hawaiian too!

3:37 am

sprite

sandy: reasonably well, though MonkeyG told me I betray being dutch in my accent.

3:38 am

sprite

roflol, no more than the few words I learned from babble and FranMag, sandy.

3:38 am

sandyloo

what other languages do you speak sprite? you are obviously gifted with language

3:39 am

sprite

not that much. German, French and a bit of Japanese. For a language miracle we have dcseain.

3:40 am

sandyloo

is babble in any other language? and what does dc speak?

3:41 am

BabbleRabble

language is a tool to communicate --- the depth and breath differ for each, but ultimately the goal is to make what you want to say understood

3:41 am

sprite

I don't remember exactly, but he speaks at least 5 or 6 languages very well and has a working knowledge of about 10 more.

3:41 am

sprite

too true, BabbleRabble, and understanding or making yourself understood isn't as easy as it sounds.

3:42 am

BabbleRabble

for example, the speaker may not always be assured anyone is listening

3:42 am

BabbleRabble

for example, the speaker may not always be assured anyone is listening

3:42 am

sandyloo

wow i am impressed with both of you

3:43 am

BabbleRabble

the best speech in the world communicates nothing if not heard

3:43 am

sprite

and even when the speaker is speaking clearly and the listener is really listening, you can't still be certain that the true message isn't filtered out.

3:44 am

BabbleRabble

stereotypes are individual

3:45 am

sprite

hm, nice one. Very true.

3:45 am

BabbleRabble

I have argued there is no such thing as common sense

3:45 am

sprite

because sense is all but common? Or for other reasons?

3:46 am

BabbleRabble

and take pride in being told I have a firm grasp of the obvious, even when I do not

3:47 am

BabbleRabble

common sense to have merit has to be limited to a small area .. what is common for me is not in China

3:48 am

sprite

I think I agree. There is already a difference between what I think is common and what my love thinks is common.

3:49 am

BabbleRabble

from birth we are told things that we accept without questioning .. by the time we are able to question we have been inculcated for years

3:50 am

sprite

I often feel there is a lot we don't question that we should

3:50 am

jean1953

good morning everyone, will be in and out of the grid as am at work:)

3:50 am

lynxxx

Hello Jean

3:51 am

sprite

hi jean, combining the unpleasant with the irresistable? ;)

3:51 am

jean1953

lol exactly sprite :)

BabbleRabble

"If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things." - Rene Descartes

3:52 am

sprite

ah, that was in your profile recently too. Guess I took it to heart, grin.

3:53 am

sprite

reminds me of that prayer of the doubtful man... "Dear God, if you exist, save my soul, if I have one."

3:53 am

BabbleRabble

good one, sprite

3:57 am

BabbleRabble

Each of us must decide what we believe. Stereotypes and heuristics have a useful role yet I hope all get beyond being dittoheads

4:00 am

sprite

for me, it has a lot to do with balance. Doubting things "that have always been" yet not losing my footing. Finding my own truths for this moment without rejecting the truth in others'.

4:02 am

BabbleRabble

you have thought much and well, sprite

4:02 am

sprite

as have you, BabbleRabble

4:04 am

sandyloo

keeping in mind, that when one becomes anylitical then it becomes hard to believe anything - so somewhere in the middle we need to have faith (and not necessarily in religion but in ourselves)

4:04 am

BabbleRabble

I do not attempt to persuade as to plant a seed for thought

4:04 am

BabbleRabble

true, sandy

4:05 am

sprite

well put, sandy.

4:07 am

BabbleRabble

I have also asked theologians why forests have been used to explain the teachings of God. So often, I have been told I an incapable of knowing ... I ask why then do you spend so much time explaining what I cannot know

4:08 am

sprite

persuasion is often rejected and may inspire a fight. Those seeds might take root at any given time. I think I shall take that to heart as well.

4:08 am

sprite

good one

4:18 am

sprite

fireworks. I have to be off. Thanks for the chat, I cannot express how much I have enjoyed this talk. Be good to yourselves, friends.

4:18 am

5:04 am

much new construction will be going on there I suppose

5:04 am

westford

that's right you're in mrp's area

5:05 am

Andree

it has slowed a lot, just a trickle compared to how busy we often are

5:05 am

westford

things will pick up again I'm sure

5:05 am

westford

and you'll be picking things up

5:06 am

Andree

yes west, but pretty nerve wracking riding it out

5:06 am

westford

I imagine it must be

hi josh good luck

5:15 am

Andree

hi josh

5:21 am

bfsog

hey all

5:23 am

westford

hi bf

5:24 am

bfsog

good weekend west?

5:25 am

westford

yes ty just stayed home and changed all the clocks

5:25 am

westford

how about you?

5:25 am

Andree

hi bfsog

5:25 am

bfsog

Friday night went wall climbing - climbed a 8 metre which was enough I think! Saturday night dinner with friends. Sunday I just vegged!

5:25 am

bfsog

hi Andreee

5:26 am

westford

wall climbing seems like so much fun

5:26 am

westford

in my next life I will rappel

5:26 am

bfsog

yeah it was good, i just joined up, got another training session this Friday after that i am judged to be past the noobie stage

5:27 am

westford

noobies wear harnesses?

5:28 am

bfsog

well we all do, but after friday i will have learned all the tricks and tips etc.

5:28 am

westford

that's a good safety measure

5:29 am

bfsog

i like climbing but Belaying is good too. On Friday we are doing Bouldering

5:29 am

westford

I think I need a babble harness..my brain is turning to jelly

5:29 am

westford

then will you climb outdoors?

5:29 am

bfsog

i was going well but stumbling now

5:30 am

bfsog

well the Bouldering is inside but i could do, i live on the coast so there is no end of places i could go, as long as i keep a mat handy

5:30 am

westford

I just spent forever trying to find a to4 that I already had

5:31 am

westford

that will be quite a challenge

5:31 am

westford

I can see you scaling the white cliffs of dover

5:31 am

bfsog

yeah its a while off, perhaps in the summer. im quite strong but il need to be stronger, or i will fall haha

5:32 am

westford

don't do that

5:32 am

westford

is it mostly upper body strength that you need?

5:33 am

bfsog

that is one of the questions i asked! if its wall climing then your legs are much more important, as they are used more through everyday (walking) they last a lot longer

5:33 am

bfsog

our arms are the first to go, we were shown that it is best to keep your arms straight when climibing, if you bend them they go faster

5:34 am

westford

that's such a good fun way to get a good workout

5:34 am

bfsog

for upper body we were told anything that makes you lift your body up is good. push ups, chin ups etc

5:35 am

westford

are you doing this with someone?

5:37 am

bfsog

well joined with a work colleague, as it is training we are part of a group of 5. after training we can come whenever we want, but it is handy to bring a partner for belaying

5:37 am

westford

I'm not familiar with that term think of belaying pins on pirate ships

5:38 am

westford

that would be good for incentive lol

5:39 am

bfsog

to 'belay' is to be the person at the bottom of the wall who takes the slack thar the climber generates by climbing

5:39 am

bfsog

and, if the climber slips off the wall, the belayer should be the reason you live

5:39 am

joshuavorbis

on belee, belee on

5:39 am

Andree

i often balay for my granchildren, at the local rock climbing

5:39 am

westford

that would have to be a good friend then

5:39 am

westford

or a good grandma

5:39 am

bfsog

in a weird way i prefer to belay

5:40 am

Andree

lol west, its fun

5:40 am

bfsog

yeah, but i was belaying for the other trainees, quite daunting

5:40 am

westford

I trust you didn't lose anyone bf

5:41 am

bfsog

nope a couple came off the wall but i was prepared, they were not going anywhere!

5:42 am

westford

I'm sure they were grateful

5:44 am

westford

sounds like you're really enjoying it bf

5:45 am

bfsog

yeah its good, id like to climb higher but no matter how secure you know the rope is im always apprehensive to let go of the wall when im descending

5:46 am

Andree

with belaying you can't let your mind wander

5:47 am

Andree

never had any wish to try the climb though

5:47 am

bfsog

with belaying i think you learn about climbing and belaying, whereas with climbing you just learn to climb

5:49 am

westford

for some reason I have Climb Every Mountain running through my head

5:49 am

westford

or the Grand Old Duke of York

6:44 am

oodleberry

ohhhhhh.... because it is not in the dictionary

6:45 am

LoriP

***So quiet in here this morn. Shall I just hoard chat? Ramble incoherently? Say Hi a million times? Do interprative dance? SO many options...***

6:45 am

oodleberry

now why would you want to do that to her, Lori

6:45 am

oodleberry

rambling incoherence is acceptable

6:45 am

LoriP

Why not? She was a good target. :D

6:46 am

mrpresident

6:46 am

oodleberry

uh

6:46 am

Besides oodle, she started it years ago. Blame carlee! ***puts on protective gear***

Hi... hey oodleberry, I'm going to go to Canada this year. I've been told Toronto is the place to go... any suggestions?

7:48 am

Aussieme

Jean, you have my every sympathy..... We went through it 7 years ago. My Hubby had been working for the same firm for 18 years, and was made redundant. Because the company went into receivership, he had to claim his redundancy from the government. Government capped the redundancy money, so he got £3,500 for 18 years service.......

7:49 am

Aussieme

he got 2 days notice.......

7:49 am

7:56 am

Scrabbler

*Alexis, sorry

7:57 am

Alexis Elise

Probably... and if you've ever been to Detroit and lived to tell about it, you wouldn't go back. But they're saying that a lot of overseas investors are actually buying these homes in bulk.

9:29 am

hurshy

well, that would explain it

9:30 am

Haz1558

I feel that there is a connection.

9:30 am

Haz1558

I have these psychic moments.

9:31 am

hurshy

i think it's being british that does it

9:31 am

hurshy

from what i've seen on dr. who, you guys have a huge amount of alien activity going on there, bound to affect you

9:31 am

flosey

I thought the brits referred to the mail as the post - no p!

9:31 am

Haz1558

You may be right, it goes with having stiff upper lips (and not from fillers, either)

9:32 am

Haz1558

Yes, flosey, last three letters of the Brit mail.

9:32 am

flosey

ah, thanks Haz

9:32 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, flosey.

9:33 am

Haz1558

I haven't seen Dr Who for ages. Maybe I should since it would seem to explain a lot.

9:33 am

flosey

a bit thick headed here this morning

9:33 am

Haz1558

I wouldn't worry, flosey.

9:33 am

hurshy

i am so sore. i've never been this sore before.

9:35 am

Haz1558

Do I offer advice or sympathy or send round a vet with a huge syringe?

9:35 am

LoriP

I'm so hyper, I feel like I could run like a Giselle. Or soemthing like that

9:35 am

hurshy

syringe!

9:35 am

magazinemom

Lori- you could run like a French girl? LOL

9:35 am

Haz1558

What will be in the syringe?

9:36 am

LoriP

Yes mag, in high heels! :D

9:36 am

hurshy

some magic serum that restores all tissue to its normal state

9:36 am

magazinemom

LOL!

9:36 am

magazinemom

LOL!

9:37 am

Haz1558

A French girl wouldn't run. It's against the law in France for a woman to run.

9:37 am

LoriP

hursh, Oil of Olay?

9:37 am

Haz1558

Botox?

9:37 am

hurshy

i don't have wrinkles, i have aches and blisters

9:38 am

tragicstud

my job is so crazy!! ugh

9:38 am

Haz1558

Blisters? From too much running or in rash form?

9:38 am

hurshy

why is it against the law for french women to run? wind in the hair, i would think they'd be all for it, so long as she disappears into a shower to remove any sweat immediately upon ceasing

9:39 am

hurshy

blisters from taking up old kitchen floor

9:39 am

movieman

hiya all!!!!

9:39 am

LoriP

Haz knows law. She read a book about once.

9:39 am

LoriP

G'd morning MM

9:39 am

Haz1558

Have you ever seen a Frenchwoman run? They glide, they strut, they pose, they walk languidly. Running is contra-indicated.

9:39 am

LoriP

Yah? But you've never seen me run like a Giselle. Don't judge me until you actually see it.

9:40 am

hurshy

*tries to remember every woman she saw in france*

9:40 am

hurshy

oh, what about during the revolution? some of them must have run then.

9:40 am

Haz1558

I think Giselle would run and leap around a great deal. How are you on the leaping, Lori?

9:41 am

movieman

Good news!!!!! I've just had a call from my mother and she told me my sister is pregnant......so I'm gonna be an uncle for the 2nd time!!!!!!

9:41 am

pabtrek

congrats movieman

9:41 am

Haz1558

With those dresses, hurshy? And that hair? That's why they all ended up getting caught, none of them could make a getaway.

9:41 am

magazinemom

that's exciting mm! Love that new baby smell

9:41 am

Haz1558

Well done her, MM.

9:41 am

pabtrek

that should be uncle movieman

9:41 am

movieman

The baby is due sometime in November

9:42 am

hurshy

9:42 am

LoriP

Congraulations Unca' MM. :)

9:42 am

magazinemom

I think Lori can handle the leaping...wasn't there something about 11 Lori's a leaping?

9:42 am

flosey

wonderful news MM, very exciting. I am going to be a gramma in June for second time

9:42 am

Haz1558

9:42 am

magazinemom

lol hursh- okay after they have been bathed and powdered

9:42 am

flosey

9:43 am

LoriP

Maybe I'll settle for prancing mag....

9:43 am

hurshy

my sister is having her second this fall also, CHS, so i guess we are in sync with our life stages

9:43 am

magazinemom

wow flosey- you really get to start fresh

9:43 am

LoriP

Well, I missed that new flosey, congratulations to ya!

9:43 am

Haz1558

Why did they keep you waiting so long for a second one, flosey?

9:43 am

flosey

and this one is in Vancouver - much closer than Toronto

9:43 am

movieman

Congrats to your sister and yourself hursh

9:44 am

LoriP

Knowing me as well as I do, even I shudder at the thought of 11 Lori's.

9:44 am

Haz1558

So Master Wesley is to have a companion in the nursery?

9:44 am

hurshy

indeed he is. it's really weird.

9:44 am

flosey

9:44 am

movieman

And Miss Janie Olive will have a new brother or sister

9:45 am

Haz1558

9:45 am

LoriP

You must be very excited MM. Yea for you!

9:45 am

flosey

9:45 am

magazinemom

I must say that I don't miss the sleepless nights with a newborn though

9:46 am

movieman

Certainly am lori, double celebrations in November....new baby and my father's 60th birthday

9:47 am

gramma

I always thought my children slept thru the night. But, in real life, it was ME who slept. My husband would bring them in and plug them in, roll me over and plug them in again. I'm a very sound sleeper.

9:48 am

hurshy

good heavens, gramma, that's amazing

9:48 am

hurshy

the largest city in massachusetts counts?!?!?!

9:48 am

LoriP

lolol gramma, hey, it worked and you all survived!

9:49 am

Haz1558

Apparently, hurshy. Join the crowd of surprised babblers.

9:49 am

flosey

9:49 am

Haz1558

It's a card game. Who knew?

9:51 am

sadie52

good morning

9:52 am

Haz1558

If nobody has any clue requests, I'd better get Spangle out for a walk while it's still dry. Consider - is getting your word more important than making <-------happy?

9:52 am

flosey

morning sadie

9:52 am

LoriP

flosey's piece of the planet is not known for snow

9:52 am

tragicstud

lickity insists that there are 10 te's and i insist there is one. who do you think is right?

9:52 am

hurshy

ah but the global climate is changing, so all bets are off

9:52 am

LoriP

G'd morning sadie. lolol Haz, no pressure there.

9:52 am

fuquayvarina

9:52 am

flosey

9:52 am

Erda

how about cr9?

9:53 am

hurshy

that puts me in mind of a song, haz...

9:53 am

Haz1558

I thought it would sort out those who think they need a clue...

9:53 am

tragicstud

so, more than one then?

9:53 am

LoriP

I can say with certainty, there are only 6 te's :p

9:53 am

fuquayvarina

fraid so, hon

9:53 am

Haz1558

cr9 - a little volcanic hollow and its plural cr10.

9:53 am

hurshy

maaaake kittens happy

9:53 am

Haz1558

There are 10 te words. Once again, Lickety has got it right.

9:54 am

tragicstud

sigh

9:54 am

LoriP

Pish posh. Un-possible!

9:55 am

Erda

Thanks for the cr words -- the most ludicrous words I've ever seen --

9:55 am

tragicstud

isn't the cr9 spelled with 6 letters?

9:55 am

Haz1558

I thought it was quite sw5, Erda, made me think kindly towards volcanoes for the first time.

9:55 am

Erda

well -- yes, that too

9:55 am

flosey

not the small one ts

9:55 am

hurshy

make it like the baby wise bird that is also in the grid

9:56 am

hurshy

i think the ob9 is pretty ridiculous too - an R would have made more sense to me at the end

9:56 am

Haz1558

Off I go, avoiding volcanoes and cr10 as I go. Bye for now!

9:56 am

movieman

wvteach

any clues for the de 8/45 ?

10:00 am

hurshy

let's see if anyone can explain my husband to me. he was planning to drop me off at work, park the car, drop off a paper at his professor's mailbox, go to the gym, go home, and pick me up at the end of the day. i decided to take a personal day because of being so sore, and this somehow means that the going to the gym part no longer makes sense to him.

10:00 am

hurshy

set off a bomb, wvteach

10:00 am

tragicstud

he wants to be with you

10:00 am

oodleberry

hi everyone

10:00 am

tragicstud

hi oodle

10:01 am

oodleberry

hi tragic

10:01 am

flosey

thanks for de hursh

10:01 am

hurshy

no, he did not mention the wanting to be with me as the reason, he mentioned the walking over to the gym. which, he would have done anyway.

10:01 am

flosey

hi oodle

10:01 am

Judi

What was his explanation, Hurshy? (Good morning, by the way).

10:01 am

wvteach

thanks hurshy - thought i had already tried that - thanks

10:02 am

hurshy

when i pointed out that it was the same thing he said it just wasn't. i said "you're weeeird". perhaps he wants to be with me and isn't aware of it on the conscious level, though.

10:02 am

oodleberry

MOrning!??? WARNING WARNING WARNING RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WARNING!!

10:03 am

LoriP

tragicstud

:-D !!!

10:04 am

tragicstud

i just looked at the clock and got depressed cause it was 10. but it's not!

10:04 am

tragicstud

it's the ONLY good part of pushing the clocks up an hour...

10:04 am

tragicstud

when your work clock needs to be reset

10:04 am

lawdoggy1

There is a good part?

10:04 am

oodleberry

uh oh I fergot to change my clock

10:05 am

hurshy

given that we're not so much an agrarian society any more, i do rather wish they'd pick one time and stick with it all year

10:05 am

tragicstud

yes law... realizing that you have an hour less of work than you thought

10:05 am

lawdoggy1

That is what we do in Arizona. I think it makes the most sense.

10:06 am

torgone

Seriously

10:07 am

tragicstud

10:07 am

lawdoggy1

10:11 am

hurshy

nope, unrelated to the chocolate, completely.

10:11 am

hurshy

ok, there is a crazy show about people stranded on an island. if you combine the name of the media on which it is shown with the name of the show, you can get one te7

10:12 am

hurshy

but you have to let them really mingle.

10:12 am

Vicuna

the other te7 is pl of te6 that sounds like a tower on a castle

10:12 am

oodleberry

well I don't buy their chocolate anymore... and someone even said they you all natural ingrediant... BS... paraphan is NOT natural

Atalante

I was very unamused

12:50 pm

EvaNadine

i saw Walt on some commercial the other day...
i WAS amused...

12:50 pm

Atalante

My first answer to Locke would have been "oh hi, where;s MY DOG?"

12:52 pm

EvaNadine

it really irked me that no one asked locke how he got off the island...
THAT would have been MY first question...

12:52 pm

I am so completely confused about which time periods Locke is dead in. Maybe Walt was too lol

12:56 pm

tragicstud

an5, and an 6,18

12:57 pm

EvaNadine

im only not confused about the time periods when i dont try to explain it to anyone...
it all makes perfect sense to me until i start speaking...

12:57 pm

kschrull

me too, I just tried typing it, but it came out all wrong

12:58 pm

Atalante

lol yes. in my head it kinda works. when I try to explain to husband, it totally doesn't. and then I get confused

12:58 pm

kschrull

Everyone who asks me about the show, I have to say "you just gotta see it yourself

12:59 pm

Atalante

oh yes, absolutely no point trying to explain. Just say start at the beginning and watch it ...

12:59 pm

tragicstud

ba6,24 (the first one)

1:00 pm

EvaNadine

i believe when locke turns wheel + gets off island, it is 3 years after the helicopter took the O6 from the island.
then, if my understanding is correct, it's just a matter of days until he dies.
meanwhile, back on the island, when locke turns the wheel, the time-jumping stops + theyre stuck back in the 70s/80s

1:01 pm

Atalante

yes .... and then the stuff in the present is being messed with - this is where I get confused - cos you see them back on the island while Locke's still alive and then dead and then hanging himself and then dead ...

1:02 pm

Judi

Ahg Ahg Ahg! Please don't talk about LOST! My husband is the biggest fan geek of that show. He just never shuts up about it. I HATE it!

1:02 pm

Atalante

but he had to die before the others could go back

1:02 pm

EvaNadine

yes, all the time-flashiness on the island was while locke was still there. occured over just a few days, the first few days after the O6 left.

I met the tiniest Yorkie / Maltese cross today. She was only a baby and tried to "hide" from me and Hobbit. She lay down in the middle of the path just like cats do as they are about to pounce - haed down, all eyes

4:28 pm

Atalante

hi ossie!

4:28 pm

Atalante

and lay there right until I walked up to her, when she sprang to her feet and jumped into my arms!

4:29 pm

Lizsark

I can't even begin to imagine what that would look like - a Yorkie/Maltese? White and hairy???

4:29 pm

Lizsark

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh :)

4:29 pm

Atalante

yep!

4:29 pm

Lizsark

Ossie would say hi but he's snoring

4:29 pm

Atalante

4:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

4:34 pm

Lizsark

I think she'd be brilliant at it, working cockers usually are

4:34 pm

Atalante

she went round a course when she was about 9 months old and was utterly hopeless, but that was when she was still young and really scaredy

4:35 pm

Atalante

I think she'd really love it now

4:35 pm

Lizsark

Anyone can come along to class. We pay a couple of pounds each time and my friend Sarah is in charge (and puts us all to shame with her border collie)

4:35 pm

Atalante

with a border collie, you have a natural advantage!

4:35 pm

Angelsong

4:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ata, we used to have one breed, which i shall call a red squirrel (i'm not a zoologist). in the past 10 years or so, I have seen more and more black squirrels, smaller and seemingly smarter than the red ones . . .

4:42 pm

Lizsark

£1.99 a day I think it said or £9.99 for the month

4:42 pm

Atalante

interesting!

4:42 pm

4:43 pm

Atalante
