12:15 am
jillibus
PB, just!
12:15 am
Pinikula
It is rather small, but good for me since I have to go to graduation tomorrow...
12:15 am
stidmama
I try to read it jill, even when I don't respond. But with so many of those people now lost to time, it's especially poignant. We are losing an entire generation of the wisdom they held.
12:16 am
Just1Mar
well I haven't even started jilli, so I;ll peruse my previous chat and get the first word!
12:16 am
stidmama
oooh. got the C
12:16 am
Just1Mar
and then I'll proceed to consume everything there!
12:16 am
Pinikula

12:17 am
stidmama
5, pini
12:17 am
stidmama

12:17 am
Just1Mar

12:17 am
stidmama
"orrid" isn't the O, though I suspect many people would call it such...
12:18 am
stidmama
in italian it is used, jill, "real" I am not sure.
12:18 am
Pinikula
I tried it, stid ;)
12:18 am
justafreep
I find it unlikely that there's really a seven letter word in here. I believe that's a myth.

Pinikula
I'll take a quick look
1:22 am
jillibus
which word, just? The gi6?
1:22 am
Just1Mar
oh ...not sure we're talking about the same word pini!
1:22 am
Pinikula
OK...apparently I'm not that smart!
1:22 am
Just1Mar
nooo I thought the gh4
1:22 am
Pinikula
gh4 = liquid butter (India)
1:23 am
Just1Mar
right so how does that apply to what DR son wore??
1:24 am
Pinikula
It doesn't
1:24 am
jillibus
oh, I knew the gh4 from Little Black Sambo
1:24 am
Pinikula
I'm looking for that one right now...
1:24 am
Just1Mar
btw....as much as I appreciate lickety's list, and I sooo do, I also so miss the youtube *prizes*
1:25 am
Just1Mar
lol I'm confused now...
1:25 am
Pinikula
don't be confuzzled, Just1...forget what I said about the gh4
1:25 am
Just1Mar
ok lol easier that way

1:29 am
Just1Mar
well maybe 10 cause there are a couple of toughies
1:29 am
dart001
wow...has it ever been lower than that?
1:29 am
Pinikula
I think so
1:30 am
Just1Mar
well the list is up too, dartie!
1:30 am
rbud
5 x 6 letters and only 1 x 7, nothing bigger
1:30 am
jillibus
not much if any
1:31 am
Just1Mar
Crazy stuff with that Air France flight eh? (so tragic :(
1:31 am
Pinikula
Oh, Just1...found the word I was thinking of...didn't realize it was spelled with just 2 letters...
1:32 am
Just1Mar
a 2 letter word? with regards to what Dr's son wore?
1:32 am
Pinikula
yes, Just1
1:33 am
Just1Mar
sigh now I'm really lost pini
1:33 am
rbud
did they find any sign of the plane or anything?
1:33 am
Pinikula
the gh4 = liquid butter
1:33 am
Just1Mar
Perhaps I didn't read what he said properly
1:34 am
Just1Mar
it seems that at first they thought they did but now, no
1:34 am
jillibus
no sign of the plane
1:34 am
Pinikula
but it SOUNDS like the uniform top of people who practice Karate (GI)
1:35 am
Just1Mar
ohhh, I don't know much about karate or their attire (blush)
1:35 am
jillibus
sorry -- there was a piece possibly part of the fuselage but the rest was just junk from a ship
1:35 am
Pinikula
GI = a lightweight, two-piece, usually white garment worn by barefooted martial-arts participants, consisting of loose-fitting pants and a wraparound jacket with cloth belt.
1:35 am
Pinikula
That's ok...neither do I except for that one, because it was one of our costumes when I was on my HS drill team...we performed to the song "Kung Fu Fighting"
1:36 am
Just1Mar
oh thx pini now I know...but when I see GI I think of as in GIJoe not ghee which to me rhymes with me!
1:37 am
jillibus
Goodnight
1:37 am
Pinikula
that's where my confusion lay, just1; gh4 and gi both sound the same...never realized I was using the wrong spelling
1:37 am
Just1Mar
a ship, jilli? wow what ship and why are pieces being found?
1:37 am
Pinikula
oh, well...on that note I should go to bed...graduation tmw and I really should be awake for it...
1:37 am
Pinikula

1:44 am
rbud
one of my favorite scenes is the one in Kill Bill where he's making sandwiches and explaining about the life and death of a goldfish...so relaxed and homey in such an intense film.
1:44 am

thanks, but it's so short that I think I'm going to let the monkeys at it for a while
5:03 am
Soodlebum
Long story, herin!! dora is a tom-cat with a serious gender issues!! lol
5:03 am
herinfernallady
Eva how is your Merp. OH Soodle is he one of those cats that actually has an XXY chromosome thingy. (or is that Xyx)
5:04 am
Eva
phantom: origin
5:04 am
Soodlebum
I think the vet did away with all his chromosome thingys!!
5:04 am
zoozzoom
yes i tried that one several times..lol
5:04 am
BabbleRabble
do cats get cooler each winter?
5:05 am
herinfernallady
No you can get Tom cats that have a genetic thing were there is an extra female chromosome. My ex house mates mother had one when he was growing up
5:05 am
herinfernallady
Nice BabbleRab
5:06 am
Soodlebum
Dora is out doing whatever lady-boy tom-cats do. I'll be sure to ask him on his return, brabble!!
5:06 am
zoozzoom
hello BR!
5:07 am
BabbleRabble
howdy, zoozzoom. is your camera pointed in the right direction?
5:07 am
Eva
Merp is fine. My last cat was Jose, who was a female. Didn't have the extra chromosone, but just seemed like Jose. How does this manifest in Dora? I assume s/he is sterile. Doe s'he play with dolls and truck?
5:08 am
zoozzoom
meaning?
5:08 am
Soodlebum
He has an alarming interest in my hand-bags, and I caught him with my mascara once. lol
5:08 am
Eva
So you call Dora "he"? At least he won't grow up and sue you for gender confusion.
5:09 am
Soodlebum
But he is a HE...............
5:09 am
Eva
I wonder if there is an organization for transgendered cats?
5:09 am
zoozzoom
tell Eva what your daughter thought your cat was soodle..lol
5:09 am
herinfernallady
SOodle is Dora a Tortie?
5:10 am
Eva
Does s/he have both sets of genitals or just th eone?
5:10 am
Soodlebum
Maybe we could start one, Eva. We could call it DORA (Don't Operate - Really Awful)
5:11 am
zoozzoom
BabbleRabble..what do you mean?
5:11 am
herinfernallady
Soodle what colour is Dora the confused exploria?
5:11 am
Eva
I don't have a daughter. But sometimes when we went to a new vet I told there her name wa Joselina so that they wouldn't think I was tottal weird.
5:11 am
Soodlebum
Dora is a black cat - born perfectly normal - then that wicked old vet de-balled him. My daughter insists on dressing him in frilly dresses and putting pink collars on him. Poor Dora!
5:12 am
herinfernallady
What a fantastically patient kitty.
5:12 am
KatieMcG
morning everyone
5:13 am
herinfernallady
Katie hi
5:13 am
zoozzoom
hello Katie!
5:14 am
Eva
DORA members could have suport groups and trade clothing tips, have discussions about to spray or not to spray, talk about difficult interactions with other cats and the mocking. We used to have a very ferociously proud cat, Atti, who would brook no disrespect from anyone, except my goddaughter, who could dress her in dolls clothing and come away unscathed.
5:14 am
herinfernallady
awww Eva that is cute

Hello, Scrabbler
7:25 am
Scrabbler
Hi BR. How are you?
7:26 am
BabbleRabble
41 F
7:26 am
Scrabbler
So a bit more comfortable in the hammock now?
7:26 am
BabbleRabble
one of the shorter summers
7:27 am
Scrabbler
You must have nice summers.
7:27 am
BabbleRabble
too wet in the hammock
7:27 am
Scrabbler
It's 57 now and will be a beautiful day. Come on over. You can recline in my new anti-gravity chair.
7:29 am
BabbleRabble
Do plan to take any time before going to the new practice?
7:30 am
Scrabbler
I have two 5 day vacations this summer, already planned, in the Adirondack Mtns. There is a 120 day notice so I am staying put til Sept 29. I will find out my remaining vacation time and use that in Sept.
7:31 am
Scrabbler
Richard is being really nice about this. I think he is happy to see me go as I am his conscience.
7:32 am
Uneaixoise
have you told Richard about the new job?
7:32 am
Scrabbler
Hi Une. Yes, I told my partners on Monday.
7:32 am
Uneaixoise
how did that go?
7:34 am
Scrabbler
I was terrified about his reaction but he is happy to see me go, it seems. And I believe it is because I am the conscience of the practice--reminding him of how to be fair, nice, respectful and to make the best, most up-to-date decisions for the kids rather than doing what the parents want. i.e. give antibiotics out, order tests, etc
7:35 am
Uneaixoise
oh, scrabs, I'm so glad it went well!!
7:35 am

And I am not passive, submissive like the other partners. I speak my mind, not aggressively, but I challenge him.
7:36 am
Scrabbler
Great title, BR!!! I love it.
7:37 am
Scrabbler
Have I told you about the "Quarter System?"
7:37 am
BabbleRabble
Not me
7:39 am
Scrabbler
Whenever someone makes a mistake in the office they have to pay a quarter into the pot and then every 3-4 mo he arranges for a "Happy Hour". I do not support the system as it is demeaning and degrading, and the same incompetent office workers ke** making the same mistakes.

7:42 am
Scrabbler
Does anyone know if strawberry plants should have a fence around them to ke**deer or rabbits out?
7:42 am
Uneaixoise

7:42 am
Scrabbler

ci5 please?
7:43 am
featherbee
we live not too far from it, so it's cheaper and easier to take it up ourselves than pay for a service
7:43 am
Uneaixoise
i love hydrangeas too -- my french ones are thriving in a sheltered semi-shady corner where nothing else would bloom!
7:43 am
suefrad625
Dale left me yesterday, said we rised our children too differently and he left. The whole thing from packing the camper to leave - Jordon (14) throwing a fit to go to his mothers-me saying that it wasnt up to Jordan, it was up to Dale - Dale packing up and leaving
7:43 am
BabbleRabble
this gr 4 is so difficult .. a source of great consternation and gr 5
7:43 am

Scrabbler
Yahoo Merk, proving to us that this tough gr4 can be finished.
7:45 am
suefrad625
but it is just what my Ex did. night before telling me how much he loved me, and then never came home
7:45 am
Scrabbler
So are you better off with or without Dale?
7:46 am
BabbleRabble
gr 6 --the last three duplicate the first three
7:46 am
Merk
Yes, it can ... mind over matter definitely.
7:46 am
suefrad625

7:46 am
BabbleRabble

fe6,27?
8:01 am
Minveryork
It is 8:57 in the morning and I have 2 words left.Do I really want to finish early and have to wait 16 hours for the flip? Looks like I'll actually have time to clean.
8:01 am
Scrabbler
Save the fireworks for later. It will get you through the day of cleaning.
8:01 am
Minveryork
fe6 word looks like what Tinkerbell is forwardbyfaith.
8:02 am
Scrabbler
fbf, tough to clue...........
8:02 am
Minveryork
fe6/27 words means healthy or strong.Use thesaurus
8:05 am
Scrabbler
Did you get it, fbf?
8:05 am
forwardbyfaith
no still looking
8:06 am
Minveryork
Okay, fe6 it was not in the thesaurus that I look at.
8:07 am
Minveryork
fe 6/27 is fe + first three letters of a flower or name
8:07 am
Minveryork
fe 6/27 is fe + first three letters of a flower or name plus a vowel forwardbyfaith.
8:08 am
Minveryork
fe 6/27 is fe + vowel plus "Little House on the Prai***.
8:09 am
Minveryork
I believe my last clue is the best one forwardbyfaith.
8:09 am
forwardbyfaith
ty min - I was close, just couldn't get it
8:10 am
Minveryork
Or I could acoid cleaning and sit here and clue all day
8:11 am
Scrabbler
Do the cleaning in little bits, checking in here occasionally. I often do that.
8:11 am
Minveryork
I got one word left & I am saving it for later on today
8:12 am
Minveryork
Scrabbler, you really want me to clean house! I don't!
8:12 am
Scrabbler
Good for you. Something to look forward to.

8:14 am
BabbleRabble
* What did the sink say to the water faucet?
* You're a real drip.
8:14 am
Minveryork
I have Scrabbler on one shoulder telling me to do the right thing and I have the devil on my other shoulder telling me to do the opposite.What to do,what to do?
8:15 am
Minveryork
Ok Scrabbler,getting into the specifics of cleaning is not going to encourage me any moreI. HATE cleaning
8:15 am
Scrabbler
Min, doing house chores in little bits makes it less painful for me.
8:16 am
Minveryork
LOL BabbleRabble!
8:16 am
Scrabbler
Me too, Min, but my NJ sister is coming in a week so I must get things clean.

3:00 pm
jesdraggon
the neonazis dress better.
3:00 pm
sprite
oh dear... not many, actually. Let's kill them all and let God sort... oh no, that is not pc of course.
3:00 pm
jmcnrick
I think the church in which I work would object to my sending poo down the building -- not to mention I am sure it violates local laws! LOL
3:01 pm
jesdraggon
no, killing makes us no better than them. we could establish fenced reservations in the canadian wilderness for the different extremists though ;)
3:01 pm
sprite
you are so right, jes. I would be so unfit for a peace organisation.
3:01 pm
jmcnrick
not to mention it sorta interferes with the peace thing sprite
3:01 pm
Atalante
doggy diapers. they do exist
3:01 pm
jesdraggon
or, you know, as they're so fond of... "send them back" to their ancestral lands. round them all up and ship all the neonazis "back" to Germany
3:01 pm
Atalante
don't send them back over here! send them to outer mongolia
3:02 pm
jmcnrick
no my poor intern is from germany -- he dosn't want them

3:08 pm

weird, isn't it. The word pocket is taken from the english, but here it means paperback.
3:09 pm
jmcnrick
the paper back books are sometimes called pocket books here too -- but it is a bit old fashion
3:10 pm
Atalante
thats what makes etymology fun
3:10 pm
sprite
go jmc goooo
3:11 pm
hurshy

onward chain: It means the buyer/seller has to sell their current property before they can purchase a new one or the person they're buying/selling from or to has to, and so on. It's said to be broken when one of the deals in the chain falls through meaning all the other sales/purchases in the chain can't take place.

Godd going, Judi.
3:55 pm

the human brain amazes me. for instance, i noticed today that without having been directly told anything about it, wesley uses the term "more" to ask for things that don't come in clearly defined beginning-to-end packages (like juggling), but "again" to ask for things that do (like a song).
3:55 pm
Judi
Such is life when the special effect budget is less than block buster, hurshy.
3:56 pm
hurshy
or when someone's imagination takes them too far outside the realm of the possible.
3:56 pm

Assuming Dr. Who is still the low-budget production it always has been (or appears to be),

Never seen Torchwood. Is that British as well?

If you don't go pro in two weeks,then your tile stats will go away&you'll no longer get fireworks after you finish the gr 4/7. Also, you can get an icon if you go pro. Right now you are a silhouette. There are daily icon themes so you can change your icon every day.
4:44 pm

Goodbye Greenie! I will see you tomorrow in the chat

Ok sounds like pro is the way to go then. See you tomorrow.
