It does not matter if whether a word is in the grid. The only thing that matters is whether ENABLE will accept the letters that are entered. All the kerfuffle about rejected entries is a futile exercise.

flosey needs all the sleep she can get, and snoozing is so nice.

I put new terra pics in flickr yesterday evening, for those that want to see how big he is getting.
3:35 am
Andree
she is sooo cute
3:36 am
Haz1558
I was surprised yesterday when a young girl tried to tell me that Spangle looked like a cross between a dachshund and a Cavalier King Charles spaniel. She mustn't have had her glasses on.
3:36 am
sprite
huh? Quite the overactive fantasy there.
We are positively in love with him, Andree.
3:36 am
Haz1558
Terra's spaniel look is coming along well.
3:37 am
rbud
awww, Terra's adorable!
3:37 am
sprite
isn't it! He must have been working hard on it. It melts stone.
3:37 am
lynxxx
Kid & Pet1 (with Caya) is a particularly nice shot
3:38 am
Haz1558
There must be a secret spaniel code imprinted into their DNA.
3:38 am
lynxxx
was Spangle walking on her knees at the time?
3:38 am
sprite
it is a delight to watch terra and the kids and hubby together.
Haz: yes I think so too.
3:39 am
Haz1558
lynxxx, she was just as normal - I didn't know whether to laugh or not.
3:39 am
sprite
Spangle is not even close to a cross of anything. Perfect springer.
3:40 am
Haz1558
I know. I don't think she heard, so she didn't get offended.
3:41 am
sprite
but did she get to be educated?
3:41 am
Andree
you need to cover her ears when people say such things haz
3:42 am
sprite
ah the other she. I am sure Spangle knows how to weigh such input.
3:42 am
Haz1558
The girl? I told her what breed Spangle was - not sure whether she believed me, she was pretty convinced there was something of the sausage dog in Spangle. Spangle walked on, seemingly oblivious. We were heading for home, so I think food was on her mind!
3:42 am
sprite
good Spangle. Silly girl.
3:45 am
Haz1558
I've just checked and enable won't accept ba4/7ify. I'm surethere must be a verb to describe complete removal of hair.

5:25 am
sprite
what kind of series is that?
5:26 am
herinfernallady
THat is starting at 930pm I think Channel 9. Sprite it is the story of the Melbourne Gang war that happened in the 1990s. Don't bother watching it on telly Lynxx its edited
5:26 am
sprite
ah ok, thanks, nothing for me
5:26 am
lynxxx
a pretty true to life series on criminals in Melbourne. So much so it was banned from screening in Victoria while a trial was on
5:27 am
herinfernallady
Oh hang on Lynxx i think this may be the sydney one
5:27 am
sprite
Can't understand why they should ban it. People can pick and choose themselves, right?
5:28 am
herinfernallady
Sprite It was because there was a murder trial and some of the gang land members mentioned or implied were ''in the show''
5:28 am
sprite
oh darn that kind of trial. Sorry to be so dense.
5:29 am
herinfernallady
Plus the Judge at the time was sick to death of the people involved in the trial
5:30 am

lol Trif, the guilty mother complex. Shake it off!
5:37 am
Trifioso
we have a pretty hot case over here right now about a mom who got so sick of her 10 and 12 yo daughters fighting that she booted them out of the car. She drove about a mile away, and then came back to get them. But the12 yo had used her cell to phone a friend's mom to come pick her up, and she left the 10 yo behind! A good samaritan picked up the 10 yo and drove her to the police. The mom came back, couldn't find the girls, so went to the police station to report them missing and was promptly arrested.
5:37 am
sprite
argh that is awful!
5:38 am
Trifioso
she only meant to teach them a lesson about arguing, i guess. Not the best choice to dump them out of the car, however. and SHAME on the 12 year old!
5:39 am
herinfernallady
Good lorde its not like she left them
5:39 am
sprite
there is no mother alive who can claim to have never made a bad decision.

there is no mother alive who hasn't thought of turfing her squabbling brats by the side of the road either!
5:40 am
herinfernallady
My gods I mean what a horrid 12 year old child. Then again I have known parents that have stopped the car and waiting until they shut up.
5:40 am
sprite
absolutely true.
5:41 am
Trifioso
pulling over to the side of the road is a long-held family tradition! lol
5:41 am

I have done that once, lady. Told them they could choose: either shut up or get out.
5:41 am

ONCE???? as always, I bow to sprite

5:44 am

5:46 am

Only to my hair when I'm outside trying to rescue my laundry from the line.

7:50 am
Scrabbler
Hi Mom! I have missed seeing you here. Doing OK?
7:51 am
inge
Guten MOrgen, I just came up for air and saw the first hummingbird of the season. Summer is here after all
7:51 am
Uneaixoise
fascinating and very scary
7:51 am
Uneaixoise
Things toasty in KY, Mom?
7:51 am
Uneaixoise
hey, inge!
7:51 am
Mom
pretty good, Scrabbler. Just been busy. How was Florida?
7:51 am
Scrabbler
Wow, Inge, I am still waiting for my first hummingbird. I put up the feeder over a week ago.
7:51 am
kje
(((MOM)))!!!! how are you?
7:51 am
Scrabbler
Une, our office will be slammed with questions and worries.
7:52 am
Mom
very toasty Une and to top it off the A/C is not working. Could have used it yesterday.
7:52 am
NonoNanette
Morning Babblers :)
7:52 am
inge
This one came to tell us, that the feeder ought to be out
7:52 am
Uneaixoise
and it's now spread to Spain . . .
7:52 am
NonoNanette
Scrabs, I haven't seen a hummer yet this spring either
7:52 am
Uneaixoise
inge :-)
7:52 am
Mom
I have missed all of you so much.
7:52 am
Scrabbler
Mom, Florida was great--look at my FB profile for a photo of a friend I met there, with story lower in list.
7:52 am
Uneaixoise
I keep looking for the first hummer at my mom's . . .
7:52 am
Mom
I will do that Scrabbler, I am glad you had a good time
7:53 am
inge
diving back in
7:53 am
Scrabbler
kje, should we get Tamiflu for ourselves and family/friends?
7:53 am
Scrabbler
i.e. shoudl we have it on hand?
7:53 am
Mom
good luck Inge (and good morning)
7:54 am
kje
scrab - I am not much of a panicker - so I generally don't (plus, I would have ethical issues with stockpiling) - didn't do the cipro thing post 911 either
7:54 am
Scrabbler
Not really stockpiling, but just have it at hand in case a shortage occurs.
7:55 am
mom2han8
on the news here they said that neither the flu vaccine nor tamiflu was efficacious for swine flu.
7:55 am
jacq
if healthy people store and this thing does become a pandemic thwn stocks in hospitals etc will run low, this will cause more issues
7:55 am
kje
as I said... I am not worried
7:55 am
jacq
these things take time to produce and they are working on one for this very strain, just maintain good personal hygene and avoid people obviously ill
7:56 am
jacq
and hello everyone
7:56 am
kje
phantom torpedo.... so close
7:56 am
Scrabbler
And all Tamiflu does is shorten illness by a day or two anyway, not a cure really.
7:57 am
mom2han8
They identified some High Schoolers not too far from here, so far no one has become seriously ill..
7:57 am
Scrabbler
I didn't even look at the total, I just dove in. As I am seeing SO many possibilities I realize this grid must be big, and it is!
7:57 am
Scrabbler
Hi other mom and jacq
7:58 am
jacq
heya Mom, mom, scrabbler et al
7:58 am
Uneaixoise
I feel so bad for folks in/from Mexico -- yesterday I was already hearing nasty comments about illegal immigrants spreading the disease in the US . . .
7:58 am
Scrabbler
High today of 83 and I work til 7:30. Waaaahhh.
7:58 am
mom2han8
and toreador kje..
7:58 am
Mom
Scrabbler, just looked at facebook. That is a really nice looking friend and a wonderful thing you did
7:58 am
kje
nah... more likely to get TB from them than swine flu - LOL
7:58 am
Uneaixoise
must take pups out to pee . . . BBL
7:58 am
mom2han8
une... most illegal aliens aren't on planes... people are insane!
7:58 am
Mom
bye bye Une, good to see you
7:58 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Mom, it was a highlight!
7:58 am
NonoNanette
Scrabs they are saying record setting 90's here later this afternoon
7:59 am
Scrabbler
Lake Erie keeps us cool, Nanette. Enjoy your day in the sunshine & heat.
7:59 am
Uneaixoise
actually the comment I heard was about illegal immigrants crossing the border on foot, not in planes
7:59 am
Scrabbler
kje, I think I have a Morgagni hernia--having CXR Wed afternoon.
7:59 am
NonoNanette
true the lake does have its benifits
7:59 am
Uneaixoise
ok, now I REALLY am gone! LOL
7:59 am
kje

8:00 am
NonoNanette

8:00 am
mom2han8

8:00 am
kje
sorry to hear that scrab
8:00 am
mom2han8
Sorry Une thought you meant the airport thing that was on the news
8:00 am
Scrabbler
And the lake is a snow-making machine all winter.
8:00 am
Scrabbler
Ever see a pt with one, kje?
8:00 am
NonoNanette

8:01 am
Anniebrook
Hi Scrabbs, Nono, kje, {{{Mom}}} Une
8:02 am
Anniebrook
Peets in bed, how luxurious
8:02 am
kje
rofl - scrab... MS2 syndrome?
8:02 am
kje
well, it was, annie, until I spilled it... now not so luxurious - LOL
8:02 am
Scrabbler
What is MS2?
8:02 am
kje
2nd year medical student
8:02 am
kje
you know how they think they have everything they read
8:02 am
Anniebrook
Peets coffee is wonderful but a tad too expensive for a retiree
8:03 am
Scrabbler
Aha, yes, that syndrome began in 1982!!
8:04 am
Scrabbler
We were called CC's: clinical clerks, not MS's.
8:04 am
mom2han8
why is boro not a word???
8:04 am
kje
cc's - that wouldn't have been until 3rd year, would it?
8:05 am
Scrabbler
We were 1st yr, 2nd etc, and signed notes as CC3 and CC4 for 3rd and 4th yrs. And we learned the truth: scutmonkeys!
8:05 am
Mom
now that breakfast is finished, I suppose I should start the chores.
It was great to see all of you again. {{Hugs}}
8:06 am
Scrabbler

8:07 am
Scrabbler
How hot is it these days for you, kje?
8:08 am
kje
it is thundering, lightening, raining, and coolish
8:08 am
kje
but we have had several days > 90 so far
8:08 am
Scrabbler
Hot, hot!
8:09 am
kje
hot hot here is 110
8:10 am
Anniebrook
I have never experienced temps over 100...was 88 here yesterday..hot enough for me
8:10 am
Scrabbler
Whoa! I have played tennis in 95 degree weather--near-death experiences. But we played just to say we could do it.
8:10 am
kje
wish you guys could here the rumbling thunder... goes on forever as it moves across the sky - really awesome
8:10 am
Scrabbler
I love thunderstorms.
8:11 am
Anniebrook
Isnt thunder and lightning wonderful sights and sounds?
8:11 am
Scrabbler
So amazing!
8:11 am
kje
if you've never lived in the midwest plains states, you have no idea what a thunderstorm can be like
8:12 am
Scrabbler
Then I don't.
8:12 am
mom2han8
Of course I asked my husband to get the air conditioners last week (we store them in a friend's garage)... which, of course, he did not...so it's been a little hot here this weekend!
8:12 am
kje
all that flat open ground... HUGE storms
8:12 am
Anniebrook
Neither do I
8:13 am
Anniebrook
But I would like to experience a thunderstorm of that nature
8:13 am
kje
it is one of the few things I really missed about texas when I moved to the NE - they have storms there, but nowhere close to these, although hurricane isabelle was impressive - LOL
8:13 am
Scrabbler
I love seeing photos of lightning.
8:13 am
Alexis Elise
Severe thunderstorms are no fun
8:14 am
kje
here you can have thunder and lightening storms that go on for hours and it never rains
8:14 am
Scrabbler
I just got a stupid telemarketer phone call already!!
8:14 am
Scrabbler
Hi Alexis
8:14 am
Alexis Elise
Hi everyone
8:15 am
kje
it can be eerie, but quite awe-inspiring and beautiful in a way
8:15 am
Anniebrook
scrabbs, were they telling you that your warranty was expiring and this is the last call you will receive for the 4 millionth time?
8:15 am
Anniebrook
hi alexis
8:15 am
Alexis Elise
I disagree, kje. I have a tornado-phobia. I hate storms.
8:15 am
magazinemom
Annie- I keep getting those calls on my cell phone. They are driving me crazy
8:15 am
Scrabbler
Nope, there was a delay in their response after I sa** hello, so that is the clue to hang up.
8:16 am
kje
you are entitled to your opinion alexis
8:16 am
Scrabbler
Tornados are another story, so dangerous.
8:16 am
Anniebrook
mag, very annoying phone calls..wsh they could be stopped
8:17 am
mom2han8
OMG... experienced a tornado once while on vacation in Ontario, Canada... scariest thing I EVER went through!!!!
8:17 am
Scrabbler
This is a great grid! I love finding words.
8:18 am
mom2han8
Annie... you can go online if you know the number and get on the "do not call" list...
8:18 am
Anniebrook
mom, I thought I was on that list...will get the phone #, thanks
8:19 am
mom2han8
I think you have to put in the # that you were called by... I don't have any problems since I got rid of my home phone, LOL1
8:19 am
kje
those telemarketers have automatic re6s
8:19 am
Scrabbler
TY for the clue, kje.
8:19 am
Anniebrook
mom, that's one way to do it
8:19 am
mom2han8
But recently my whole family got that warranty call on our cells... so I called AT&T with the time of the calls and they blocked them (as the # did not come up)...
8:20 am
Anniebrook
mom, will do that, thank you
8:20 am
magazinemom
great idea, mom2 I will do that.
8:21 am
kje
111 left - must get to work - later all
8:22 am
mom2han8
My kid was getting these crazy phone calls in spanish... it was hysterical... so I had done it with those calls... I figured they must have a way in this day and age to access the number from their end... Also, I was not happy about it going against my minutes!!!
8:22 am
NonoNanette
bye bye kje
8:23 am
Scrabbler
Bye kje
8:23 am
mom2han8
OK... bbl... I have to reupholster a footstool for my sister and want to get to some of it before it gets too hot in here!!! Have a great day all!
8:24 am
Anniebrook
bye mom2....I have to leave for a while...going to take a friend to get a pair of shoes and I might get a pair too, who knows????
8:25 am
Scrabbler
Funny story that happened to my friend, Julie. She had dropped her kids off at school and about an hour later, while in her car with OnStar, got a call: "Mom, I forgot my band uniform, could you bring it to school later?" Julie was thinking, my kids are in band but don't have uniforms...who is this? She asked the girl, "Who is this?" "Mom, it's me, Olivia." Well, Julie does not have an Olivia, so she told the girl that the wrong # was di**ed.
8:26 am
Scrabbler
Bye mom2 and Annie

8:33 am
Trifioso
flosey, are the brownies on your profile cake like or fudge like when cooked?
8:33 am
flosey
just got la4 and 5 that way
8:34 am
flosey
they're more fudge like
8:34 am
flosey
they go so fast, I tried tripling the recipe - was a mistake
8:35 am
flosey
my pan wasn't quite 3 x the size of the 9 x 9, make them more cakey
8:35 am
Trifioso
I think I will try them today for the fry. Tertiare was asking for brownies
8:36 am
flosey
good luck trif, enjoy
8:36 am
Trifioso
it looks an excellent recipe, flosey, thank you so much for sharing it! :)
8:37 am
flosey
just be sure they are not overcooked and do frost them while still quite warm
8:38 am

110 down, and off to take the kids to school. Happy Babbling!
8:38 am

some day ill learn to type

Trifioso
but why, sadie? half of my answers seem to come through typos that turn out to be enable words! :)
9:01 am
Takuma Sato
the end of the semester came as a surprise to me too. I'm used to quarters, as well. two of my earlier programs were on the quarter system as well
9:01 am
sadie52
hehe mine too
9:02 am
Trifioso
how many students do you have? and then you have your own course work to finish as well, yes?
9:03 am
Takuma Sato
just 60 this semester, and I'm just writing these days, so I don't really have a semester-end deadline

60 sounds like a lot to me!

10:23 am
J. C.
Oh, I only do some very basic yoga stretches, upon rising each day - nothing fancy!
10:23 am
Trifioso
still, sounds good to me! wow, you and I have a lot of the same interests!
10:23 am

They're just from a little basic yoga book I have.

To the bus I go!

phaeton
If you want Gridlock
10:34 am
Angelsong

10:35 am
Trifioso

10:37 am
Judi
Black sex links. That sounds wrong on so many levels, Trif. lol!
10:37 am
Trifioso

Breaking news, there are 2 confirmed cases of swine flu in Britain.
12:23 pm

my nephew is getting married on Sunday.. they have honeymoon reservations in Cancun, yikes
12:24 pm
caitlyn
I didnt hear hurshy, they are not too bad though
12:24 pm
jmcnrick
a device similar to radar in principle and operation but using infrared laser light instead of radio waves and capable of detecting particles and varying physical conditions in the atmosphere.
12:24 pm
hurshy
uh, yeah, they should change that plan, alo.
12:25 pm
caitlyn
Are they able to cancel Aloy, the honeymoon, not the wedding
12:25 pm
Aloyisius
i knew that.. lol, tyvm jmcn
12:25 pm
Aloyisius
don't know, cait.. of concern.. will find out soon
12:26 pm
hurshy
i can suggest them a very nice inn in northern vermont.
12:27 pm
hurshy
rabbit hill inn. i have stayed there and it's great. and the FOOD in the RESTAURANT (brekkie, afternoon tea, and dinner included in your stay) is FABULOUS.
12:27 pm
Aloyisius
taking notes... ty hurshy
12:27 pm
jmcnrick
* Cancun is not adequately stocked with swine flu medicaton. So if you are going, perhaps you can get hold of that medication before you go. Contact your doctor, and note that this medication has to be taken in the first couple of days when symptoms are observed.
* The airport in Cancun is now being quarantined Authorities have health units on alert for incoming suspected cases of flu (correction: see comments at the bottom, the point is selective checking of passengers not wholesale quarantine, apologies for confusion). That is a good thing! But if you are displaying flu-like symptoms, you will probably be quarantined and denied entry or exit. So take your chance.
* Medical facilities in Cancun are good for foreigners (e.g. American Hospital)… as long as you stick to Cancun you should be ok.

it's kind of exciting, really - like travelling back in time.
12:30 pm

Hi. One of the swine flu cases is just up the road to me, in Northwick Park hospital. That's the air steward. Rather close for comfort. I live 3 miles from Heathrow.
12:30 pm
caitlyn
Time for me to go, take care all, see you tomorrow,bye
12:30 pm
hurshy
i mean, not for the people who get it, but...
12:30 pm
jmcnrick
I also noted that there had been no reported case in Cancun. But the NYC students who have it were visiting Cancun
12:30 pm

Hi and bye Caitlyn.

Yep, PB for me. Plus, I'm covering my keyboard with greasy marks from the crisps I'm eating. Shame on me!
12:32 pm
hurshy
well you may not HAVE to, but if you don't go very far back, then it isn't very exciting.
12:33 pm
jmcnrick
lol but the clue was helpful!
12:33 pm

Glad something good came of it, jm :-)

Aloyisius
don't know why I can't copy/paste or click on icons while on Lickety's page... have to go to regular Babble.. must be a block or something..
12:34 pm
hurshy
oh, i have a question.
12:35 pm
jmcnrick
what hurshy?
12:35 pm
Aloyisius
your nephew is an adorable, hurshy..
12:35 pm
hurshy
am i being... countryist?... people are wondering why people in the US haven't been dying from the swine flu while people in mexico have. like, people quoted in the news.
12:35 pm
fuquayvarina
I know what you mean, hurshy. as long as it's far away, the whole epidemic thing seems kind of fascinating -- how does it affect people's behavior, what fear does to a society, etc.
12:36 pm
jmcnrick
probably medical care
12:36 pm
hurshy
and i'm like, um, we have better health care? and probably better nutrition so better immune systems to begin with?
12:36 pm
jmcnrick
15 students in NYC had it
12:36 pm
hurshy
but if the answer is that easy, then why do these public health officials and doctors ask the question?
12:36 pm
Aloyisius
accessibility/availability of the treatments is my guess too
12:36 pm
Magyk
This may seem ignorant, but how does one get the swine flu?
12:37 pm
jmcnrick
knowing some intuitively and knowing scientifically are different
12:37 pm
hurshy
originally, from swine, but now it can pass person-to-person, which is why they have the public health warnings.
12:37 pm
hydra
I think it transmits through the air like the cold virus.
12:37 pm
Magyk
But it's not through physical contact?
12:37 pm
hurshy
it's some kind of combo of pig virus DNA and human virus DNA and maybe some other stuff.
12:37 pm
fuquayvarina
I think no one is really sure, hursh. The basic explanations like better medical care are part of it, but there may be more going on.
12:38 pm
Magyk
ok thanks Hydra...that's what I was wondering.
12:38 pm
jmcnrick
and the re4 problem in the US is the number of people who won't stay home when they are sick.
12:38 pm
KatieMcG
we went to Mexico for our honeymoon last year, If it had been this year I would have been in a right state, it's bad enough with the stress of a wedding without this added on top
12:38 pm
fuquayvarina
It doesn't require physical contact, magyk.
12:39 pm
hurshy
well if employers weren't complete stinges about sick time, that would help.
12:39 pm
hydra
I could be wrong, but isn't that how flu normally spreads? Thru someone sneezing and you being too close? Viruses in a sneeze can travel 16 feet, I read!!!
12:39 pm
hydra
See you later. Getting in bath now. All sweaty from the gym.
12:39 pm
hurshy
at my previous job i had 3 sick days a year. i'm like, um, ok, but what if i actually get, you know, SICK?
12:39 pm
Aloyisius
right, Katie.. that is why I haven't brought it up yet, but I'm thinking I should.. the couple could go to the doc and get some Tamiflu
12:39 pm
Magyk
Bye Hydra!
12:39 pm
EvaNadine
i read that the virus germs for the swine flue can live on surfaces for up to 2 hours...
12:40 pm
fuquayvarina
What's so interesting about this flu is that it is affecting young, healthy people, not the ones with weak or compromised immune systems. Why?
12:40 pm
EvaNadine
and you can have the virus for a day before symptoms show up...
12:40 pm
KatieMcG
I'm sure it is on their mind Aloy, it might be worth mentioning it to them in case they need someone to talk to about it
12:40 pm
hurshy
that is the way the spanish flu and some other ones went, it apparently is typical of a certain type of pandemic.
12:40 pm
Aloyisius
good point, Katie
12:41 pm
hurshy
the young healthy people, i mean.
12:41 pm
fuquayvarina
right, but I'd like to understand what the mechanism is that would allow it to bypass the weak folks in favor of the strong
12:42 pm
Aloyisius
brb.. helping hubby move something
12:42 pm
Magyk
Can I get a clue for to6/21 please?
12:42 pm
hurshy
well, if it bonds with something in your body, and it prefers bonding with strong stuff, or just has more success when it bonds with strong stuff, would be my non-medical vague thought.
12:43 pm

Here's one explanation:
12:48 pm
torgone
How is fraidy not a word? We all know a fraidy cat ..
12:48 pm
Atalante
What happens with young and healthy patients is that their immune systems react so strongly that they can triggers something known as a "cytokine storm".
http://www.fluwikie.com/inde
x.php?n=Science.PrimerCytokineStorm
W
hen this happens the person's immune system overreacts to the totally new flu virus and actually attacks the body's healthy organs and systems - that makes the healthy approximately 15 to 60 year old individual the most likely to actually succumb to the flu.
12:48 pm

at least i think i have. there have been thyroid storms, too, but i think there have been more than one kind of storms.
12:50 pm
Magyk
thank you! I never would've gotten that one!
12:51 pm
hurshy
so really, the key is to compromise your immune system in some other way?
12:51 pm
Atalante
to have it depressed enough, but not too depressed, I guess.
12:51 pm
KatieMcG
has the new series of house started with you?
12:52 pm
hurshy
it started in the fall, and will end sometime soon, i think
12:52 pm
KatieMcG
Oh we haven't had it yet. I sobbed at the end of the last series!
12:53 pm
hurshy
the fourth? or the fifth? i've lost count. i know i have four on DVD.
12:54 pm
KatieMcG
The fourth was the one with Amber which I told Mari to watch but not how bad it was, she was going to kill me for not warning her. It is the fifth I am waiting to start
12:54 pm
hurshy
aha. do you know when you will get it?
12:55 pm
fuquayvarina
OK, must do some actual work this afternoon. happy babbling and chatting!

'spring' is as far as I can get with it hurshy but nice to know it is worth waiting for
1:08 pm
hurshy
it really seems like they should tell people more clearly so that they don't miss any.
1:09 pm
KatieMcG
I missed the start of numbers and am now completely confused with the whole thing. I might just get them on dvd
1:10 pm
hurshy
you can watch house online though
1:10 pm
KatieMcG
yep thinking of doing that but not sure how legal it is
1:11 pm
Atalante
not very!
1:11 pm
hurshy
they put them up for free.
1:11 pm

the episode goes up on fox.com 8 days after it is on the air in the US.
1:11 pm
KatieMcG
oh that sounds good, I will check the website
1:12 pm
hurshy
if it is a problem that you're not in the US... i know how to get around it. but i don't see why it would be, i don't think it's like the bbc...
1:14 pm

Can only do it if you live in the US :-( Hubby has another source

1:19 pm

with wet hair?
1:20 pm
stidmama
yes, or at least it was still damp when I dropped the packet off at admissions!
1:20 pm

how much do you pay for your tv licence, ata?
1:20 pm

I am not doing the grid today, too big a grid, too sunny a day, too much to do.
1:20 pm

I am at work so I might as well do the grid I can't go garden
1:21 pm

you know, I haven't been able to access some of the content on the BBC's website -- so I guess it goes both ways.

jmc... is your work that boring?
1:21 pm
Angelsong
fireworks, even with a late start today.
1:21 pm
stidmama
hello mrp! how's you? stidkid got a book of Australian phraseology from a teacher-friend who taught over there for a year!
1:21 pm
stidmama
YAY angelsong!
1:22 pm
mrpresident
hi stid! ((hugs))
1:22 pm
Angelsong
hey, Stid...did some new editiing of my squidoo page
1:22 pm
stidmama
since I was there yesterday?
1:22 pm
stidmama
you are just a busy beaver, angel!
1:22 pm
Angelsong
yes, indeed!
1:22 pm
Atalante
ermmmmm, can't remember! a lot!
1:22 pm
jmcnrick
no there are just long lag times between urgent emergency calls on teh hot line and then long brain dead times for the rest of my work
1:23 pm
mrpresident
phraseology !! cool
1:23 pm
Angelsong
I am obsessed with frugality and organization, stid.

hi jmc! ((hugs))
1:23 pm
stidmama
oh -- I see. yes, we used to play a lot of computer games when I worked the phone lines at the crisis clinic.
1:23 pm
hurshy
more than 10 pounds a month?
1:23 pm
Angelsong
go look, stid, when you have a chance.
1:24 pm
jmcnrick
frugality is right up my alley -- not so organization
1:24 pm
Atalante
The annual cost of a colour TV licence (set by the Government) is currently £142.50.
1:24 pm
stidmama
I have yet to see it though... LOL he is taking it with him everywhere! trying to learn the lingo. He informed me this weekend he leaves in less than three months! *faint*
1:24 pm
stidmama
eek. that is a LOT of money, atalante!
1:24 pm
hurshy
so, not much more than 10/month.
1:24 pm
stidmama
I will angelsong, but probably not today, need to leave soon.
1:25 pm
mrpresident
I would love to know what the book is called!
1:25 pm
stidmama
I'll try to find out. I am told that there are a lot of rhyming word substitutions?
1:25 pm
hurshy
so yeah, they should set up the iplayer site so everyone with a licence has a login to use it. and then let anyone in the world buy a licence. i'd pay $20/month for it easy. they could make a mint.
1:26 pm
Angelsong
organization makes frugality a lot easier, imho, jm

rhyming substitution is a Cockney thing, no?

it's like they're against making money. i mean that canNOT be hard to set up. bill my credit card automatically, boom.
1:27 pm
Atalante
they keep saying they are going to make it available worldwide
1:27 pm
torgone
The entertainment industry will always want more control and less freedom ..
1:28 pm
hurshy
i really can't imagine it should take more than a week to set up!
1:28 pm
mrpresident
Many aussie slang words have now been adopted across the globe.
1:28 pm
hurshy
but tor, what's the point of control if you don't make MONEY???
1:28 pm
Atalante
I suspect it's a bit more complicated than that ...
1:29 pm
Atalante
The BBC doesn't have to make money
1:29 pm
hurshy
i'm not saying the UK owes us free television programming, i am saying i would happily pay what the brits pay for a licence to see it!
1:29 pm
joshuavorbis
aussie slang = put an "ie" on the end of any word
1:29 pm
joshuavorbis
well, first chop the word down to its first syllable, then add the ie
1:30 pm
Atalante
I'd be happy to have stuff from other countries too. But it's not as easy as just setting up the processes
1:30 pm
hurshy
it's only more complicated because of stupid laws, ata, it certainly can't be hard tech-wise.
1:30 pm
mrpresident
oh josh, it is much more fun than that!
1:30 pm
hurshy
but usually when laws get in the way of a chance to make an honest buck, those laws don't last very long. someone somewhere is being very thick.
1:31 pm
Atalante
oh yes, tech isn't hard. law is.
1:31 pm
mrpresident
my fav slang is 'deadset'
1:31 pm
jmcnrick
Good thing for me law is hard! lol
1:31 pm
stidmama
LOL josh(ie)...
1:32 pm
stidmama
as in "he was deadset against it?"
1:32 pm
Atalante
isn't deadset just normal?
1:32 pm
torgone
It is more complicated .. There are a ton of licensing companies that demand a cut of any money made, and they're usually the ones making restrictions ..
1:32 pm
hurshy
i wrote to the bbc. i said, take my money, please. i want to be able to buy a licence. just set it up and i'll send you the quids. and they replied "bbc programming is currently only available in the UK". duh! that's why i WROTE you the EMAIL!
1:32 pm
jmcnrick
hi torg!
1:33 pm
mrpresident
deadset in aussie slang means the the truth

my favourite Aussie slang is fair dinkum.

It's not fair .. Both weekend grids were fairly small .. Today's is a fat bloated pig ..
4:32 pm
Uniquity

4:33 pm
Atalante
lol I know, same here!
4:33 pm
Atalante
he's fine. she was very old and ill
4:34 pm
Uniquity
Slightly easier when you see it coming, I s'pose. Ankh's dog? Is that dog in Oregon? I don't want to talk about sick kitties as I shan't risk Emma's health.
4:35 pm
Atalante
no, she's a babbler who was around before you even turned up, I think. she had a beautiful old dog that she adopted to give him a few months of peace and love.
4:36 pm
Uniquity
Oh. It's nice to see elderly animals be given a lovely life until the end.
4:36 pm

oh jeez...
8:26 pm
Scrabbler
I am back--page was from mother with coughing kid and I cannot diagnose or fix that over the phone.
8:26 pm
Pinikula
is there one before that one, magy? or one in between?
8:27 pm
rururocks
re 6/21 is a plural too
8:27 pm
lbdawger
you're silly, you can't get an elephant in a fridge
8:27 pm
jesdraggon
you can't diagnose over the phone? no way! where's your crystal ball?
8:27 pm
Magyk
one in between the two clues you gave me... I just listed a bit ago and I can't seem to find this one
8:27 pm
jesdraggon
so if you're out walking, and you come to a river that's home to a bunch of crocodiles, but you need to get to the other side, what do you do?
8:27 pm
pam
So not jealous of your calls, scrabs!
8:28 pm
Scrabbler
Correction, I CAN diagnose croup or wheezing over the phone, but otherwise that is my limit.
8:28 pm
jesdraggon
swim across... the crocs are at the meeting with the king
8:28 pm
rururocks
(jes.. ? are you okay?)
8:28 pm
Scrabbler

I tell parents often, when I am on call, that either we do supportive care at home OR the kid must be seen at the children's hospital.
8:31 pm
Pinikula
hi oodle...
8:31 pm
Pinikula
oodle...have leftovers from yesterday?
8:31 pm
Pinikula
2 more and I can list
8:31 pm
Scrabbler
Some parents don't want to hear that but all need to be told.
8:31 pm
Scrabbler
Hi Oodle and jane
8:32 pm
oodleberry
no I already explained why this happens
8:32 pm
Pinikula
oh, sorry...missed it
8:32 pm
lbdawger
hi Harp, Pini, Magy
8:32 pm
pam
Some parents shouldn't be allowed to have a goldfish bowl let alone a child....
8:32 pm
Pinikula
I agree, pam!
8:32 pm
Magyk
hello lbd and Oodle and everyone else!!
8:33 pm
lbdawger
amen, Pam!
8:33 pm
Dorens
de 6/24 please
8:33 pm

I agree, Pini and I see examples ALL day at the office.
8:33 pm

Hi Magyk

when the grid god is not pleased with the word I have entered he adds a word
8:33 pm

hi magy
8:33 pm

I think that parents ought to have licenses
8:33 pm
Pinikula
yikes, oodle...sorry to hear that!
8:33 pm
pam
renewable, ru?
8:34 pm
oodleberry
don't know why I AM THE ONLY ONE
8:34 pm
rururocks
get like parent pink permits for hamsters first
8:34 pm
lbdawger
oodle, you must pay homage to the grid god!
8:34 pm
Pinikula
I think people who manipulate others so they can get a child at the expense of taking another family apart to increase the size of their own (to impress peers) should be shot!
8:34 pm
Scrabbler
Education, training, testing, and if you pass the test THEN you get the license.
8:34 pm
Dorens
would the grid god have a clue for de 6/24???
8:34 pm
oodleberry
i do... he doesn't like that either
8:34 pm
rururocks
If they can keep hamsters going for a while upgrade to squirrels
8:34 pm
Dorens
and I so do agree with licensing parents
8:34 pm
lbdawger
dorens, send back to home country
8:35 pm
Pinikula
and the courts that let them do it should be disbanned
8:35 pm
jesdraggon
oh no, not squirrels
8:35 pm
Pinikula
sorry...stepping off soapbox now
8:35 pm
jesdraggon
they're MEAN
8:35 pm

Is there more than one de6/24?
8:35 pm

If that were the case .. George Bush wouldn't be around i Guess though
8:35 pm
jesdraggon
and then i have to deal with it when people don't take care of them :P
8:35 pm
lbdawger
i'd start them out with plants, if they can't keep a plant alive, they surely can't keep a critter alive
8:35 pm
Dorens
thanks dawg. i should be shot for that one. but it is my fireworks and i can now close my tired eyes. see y'all tomorrow and hi nrkii
8:35 pm

8:36 pm

i have to have plants that can thrive on neglect. like my christmas cactus!
8:36 pm
nrkii
I told my mom I might break him out of the rehab hospital soon
8:37 pm
nrkii
I"m getting very frustrated with them
8:37 pm
Trifioso
lbd, I agree with most of this, but feel I really should state that I have three lovely, thriving children, and cannot keep a house plant alive. ever.
8:37 pm
nrkii
as soon as they test and prove he can swallow without aspirating, I'm going to sneak him out in the middle of the day (nobody would notice)
8:37 pm
Pinikula
* sigh * the list is not helping much :(
8:37 pm
Scrabbler
It sucks to be a patient, and it's dangerous too, so it should be avoided at all costs.
8:37 pm
lbdawger
Trif, you are an exception to the rule.
8:37 pm
rururocks
many people should be allowed to be parents.. just they should be tested first
8:37 pm
Pinikula
glad to hear, nrkii...hope he's home soon
8:37 pm
Scrabbler
Go Pini go!
8:38 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, Ruru.
8:38 pm
nrkii
the place he's at is a mix of excellent (PT and OT and RT) and horrifying (general nursing staff)
8:38 pm
Trifioso
problem is, what do you do with the parents that don't pass? if they already have kids, where are you going to put them? we don't have enough foster parents/places as it is!
8:38 pm
nrkii
thanks Pini :)
8:39 pm
nrkii
of course, the sooner I get him home, the sooner I CAN GO HOME
8:39 pm
nrkii
not that I'm losing my mind here or anything
8:39 pm
lbdawger
parent coaching? i do believe that all parents need to have lessons in how to raise children. what to do when they are overwhelmed, and all that stuff
8:39 pm
Scrabbler
I consider kidnapping kids everyday in my office. I want to give the kids a bath, clean clothes (including socks!), a nice balanced meal, and lots of love which includes discipline.
8:39 pm
Trifioso

8:43 pm

But House is at least smart and makes good medical decisions.

that doctors think things like that.

My primary who went concierge was great--sarcastic, smart, and good for me. My new one is smart and talks to me like I am, but he's not sarcastic and I miss it
8:44 pm
hurshy
it's sort of pathetic, that everytime i hear someone talking about someone sick and they don't know what's wrong, i think, they should go see house, and then i remember, he's not real...
8:44 pm

Oh, yes, Hursh! People lie! People don't tell us the full story. etc

i think he could find a way to be happy and be a good doctor but i guess the writers don't. :(
8:48 pm
pam
i don't think they want him happy....
8:48 pm
hurshy
do they think we wouldn't like the show anymore?
8:49 pm
hurshy
i think i still would. but maybe my subconscious amber thinks otherwise.
8:49 pm

ROFLMAO, hursh
8:50 pm
redturtlehead
Hi Pam, I simply do not want to go to work again tomorro.
8:50 pm
hurshy
i was surprised how dangerous they made methadone sound. i know a doctor here who works with addicts in prison and he talks about it so casually, i thought it was just, you know, a helpful drug to get people off other drugs.
8:51 pm
redturtlehead
methadone used improperly is very dangerous.
8:51 pm
Pinikula
110 to go! :)
8:51 pm
hurshy
where's yerdog? in ye***ckyard
8:51 pm
hurshy
but house wasn't using it improperly, he was trying to get off vicodin and it was prescribed and everything...
8:51 pm

thx hurshy - very cute clue!
8:52 pm

git'r dun, crpw
8:52 pm
hurshy
what's wrong, red, about work?
8:52 pm
lbdawger
go nrkii,
8:52 pm
redturtlehead
Well, to be honest Hursh, Methadone would not really be prescribed for an addiction to Vicodin.
8:52 pm
redturtlehead
Nothingwrong with work, Iam just tired.
8:52 pm
hurshy
i am always tired.
8:53 pm
Trifioso
the word "vicodin" always makes me laugh, remembering an eppy of Six Feet Under where it featured heavily....
8:53 pm
harpjane
funny clue, thanks!
8:53 pm
hurshy
it never makes me laugh, i think of brett favre's dark years.
8:54 pm
hurshy
how big of a deal is it to get your thyroid checked? is it like, draw some blood, results in a day or two?
8:54 pm
nrkii
vicodin just makes me sleep... a very good sleep usually
8:54 pm
redturtlehead
just a blood draw hursh. easy.
8:54 pm
Pinikula
how are you coming along, magy
8:54 pm
Magyk
it's kind of a big deal hursh....not the time it takes but the money. it's super expensive
8:55 pm
hurshy
and is it, like, ok to ask your doctor for it, or is that a faux pas?
8:55 pm
hurshy
oh, well, i work for yale and the health coverage is very good so i don't think it would be expensive...
8:55 pm
Magyk
a thyroid disease runs in my family. there is a 98% chance I have it but I can't get it because of money. It's ok to ask your Dr. for it. Unbalanced thyroid levels are becoming more and more common
8:55 pm
hurshy
of course i don't want to waste resources either
8:56 pm
redturtlehead
No it would be epensive, and would be coveredunder insurance. and yes I would agree its alright to ask for the test.
8:56 pm
hurshy
why are they becoming more common?
8:56 pm
redturtlehead
Oops I meant to say It probably would not be expensive as you are having insurance.
8:57 pm
Magyk
that's the question...no one really knows. Some say it's genetics and others say that it's age/menopause, but there is not one definite answer to that question.
8:57 pm
hurshy
well i am young and i don't think i have a family history... unless they're just undiagnosed.
8:58 pm
Pinikula
go nrkii go
8:58 pm
redturtlehead
There is also the chance that more people are getting tested, and the tests are becoming increasingly specific allowing for better diagnostics,picking up cases that might have been missed otherwise.
8:58 pm
Trifioso
I heard that an astounding number of folks diagnosed with depression really turn out to have thyroid issues....
8:58 pm

I'm only 24. My mom found out a year and a half ago that she had this disease. It can become a big deal if its not taken care of because the levels only become more and more unbalanced and it can end up messing up your internal organs.
8:59 pm
lbdawger
whooooo hoooooo NRKII

okay need heating pad and wine before bed...

9:00 pm
lbdawger
Magy, is there a community or county clinic available to you?
9:00 pm
Magyk
My sister was diagnosed with bipolar disorder years ago and it ended up that it was a thyroid disorder. If these tests had been available then she would never have had to go through all those other medications.
9:00 pm
lbdawger
Sweet dreams, Nrkii
9:01 pm
redturtlehead
OH heavens I need to go to bed, but grrrrrr.I want to relax, but I have to get up at like 3:30 in the morning for an early meeting. Not a happy camper.
9:01 pm
Trifioso
heating pad and wine sounds like heaven!
9:01 pm
Pinikula
ouch, red...that's early
9:01 pm
Magyk
Not really. They have started offering a state insurance but it's hard to qualify for. I've just been trying to get a full time job that offers benefits. At this point I don't care if I don't get to use my degree, as long as I have insurance.
9:02 pm
Pinikula
both are important, magy...just think of it as reversing the order due to need
9:02 pm
Pinikula
oh, crap....not 1 single DR word...darn this list!
9:02 pm
hurshy
the thyroid is the neck glands, yes?
9:03 pm
Magyk
It's frustrating but I just keep praying that the right job will come along...as I apply for all of them! Yes it is Hursh.
9:03 pm
redturtlehead
it is a gland in the neck, in the front.
9:03 pm
Pinikula
in the neck area, yes - I think so
9:03 pm
redturtlehead
Magy, I do wish you luck. and of course you can always become a nurse.
9:03 pm
hurshy
my mom kinda drilled it into me that the biggest priority in life was having health insurance. may be part of why i avoid risk...
9:04 pm
Magyk
Sorry that I just kind of went of a rant there. I apologize! The subjects I'm passionate about tend to get the better of me.
9:04 pm
redturtlehead
hursh, my parents were also that way, at some point I sort of got over it, in this minute I am uninsured. Have not had time to fill out the forms.
9:04 pm
hurshy
yeah, see,my left one has been swollen for a long time now and my friend who is a doc thought cat scratch disease cause i have 3 cats
9:04 pm
Magyk

but i also have the depression and some odd heart symptom
9:05 pm

I would get the test Hursh...better safe than sorry.

your left "gland"...thats not the thyroid. the thyroid is its own gland.

9:06 pm

sounds like a swollen tonsil.
9:06 pm

Exhausted.
9:07 pm
hurshy
although, that tonsil is a mess, it is true.
9:07 pm
pam
3:3 for an early meeting? You need to fill out the forms and at least get health insurance for that
9:07 pm
hurshy
but i mean the gland that swells up if you have an infection or whatever.
9:08 pm
redturtlehead
probably related to the tonsil, when they tell you you have swollen gland, its usually irritated tonsils.
9:08 pm
pam
that sounds like a lymph gland...
9:08 pm
pam
If that tonsil is so bad, why is it still with you?
9:08 pm
redturtlehead
the meeting i s at 6 am, but I must walk dog first. and then more flipping work.
9:08 pm
pam
I figured there was a good reason pre-meeting, LOL
9:09 pm
Magyk
can I get a clue for or6/21 please?
9:09 pm
cwestexan
thx for the clue:)
9:09 pm
hurshy
cause you have to have like 3 documented sore throats in a certain period or they won't take it out, i think.
9:09 pm
Magyk
where are ya Pini?
9:09 pm

9:09 pm

hurshy if you want them out you can shop round and find a doc who will do it. surgeons enjoy doing surgery.
9:09 pm
rururocks
or + poker term **** 'em
9:10 pm
hurshy
that's what i heard, anyway. it was bugging me because it had cavities ever since i had mono and food would get stuck in them which was very irksome. they seem to have closed up now but it is that same side that the gland is swollen.
9:10 pm
Magyk
I got distracted...I'm at 50
9:10 pm
hurshy
can you get just one out?
9:10 pm
Magyk
thank you ruru!

9:11 pm

what are the risks to having no tonsils?
9:11 pm
redturtlehead
Nokidding pam, I have a lot ofcrud.
9:11 pm
redturtlehead
Not too many Hursh, as you know lots of people haveno tonsils.
9:12 pm
hurshy
but we must have them for a reason
9:12 pm
pam
I'd rather be tonsil-less than keep an organ that is constantly inflamed and/or prone to infection.
9:12 pm
pam
yes, to annoy us, hursh, LOL
9:12 pm
