do you paste them out of bab exp.?

3:07 am

DTins

Morning all, how many today please??

3:07 am

no, I copy and paste into notepad; then delete all the extra letters... which is why it takes me so long

3:07 am

Just1Mar

or just plain babble dart...doesn't it show you your list under my word list?

3:07 am

mixi6

toooo many

3:07 am

vashongin

3:07 am

wouldnt it paste the whole word tho?

3:07 am

3:08 am

Just1Mar

when lickety hasn't posted I just play in the reg babble sight and don't even open up expert

i dont have it..not sure what it looks like

3:08 am

Just1Mar

where do you copy and paste from dee? expert?

3:09 am

VolleymomDee

don't have expert... copy from my word list

3:09 am

Just1Mar

so how do you not copy the whole word itself?

3:10 am

mixi6

if you copy into excel, you can convert text to table by fixed width, and do just the first two letters. then get rid of the extra column

3:10 am

VolleymomDee

it does, just, then I have to delete the extra letters from each word

3:10 am

Just1Mar

ooo didn't realize that dee ...that's a job!

3:10 am

VolleymomDee

not sure my puter memory is large enough to have babble open, morewords, babble chat...

Think in terms of where birds live.

Haz - thanks and pass the fish over here - we have that so often.

No problem.

Thanks...4 straight off without even looking at the grid. Hello all.

4:02 am

Dianne

Hi lyn

4:02 am

Haz1558

Good evening lynxxx. It's nice when that happens, isn't it?

4:02 am

Haz1558

It's a nice grid, not that I've finished yet, but the words flow.

4:08 am

Ray100

I spot the name of someone who should have been elected the US President a few years ago...

4:09 am

Haz1558

You're not suggesting that there's a flaw in the American electoral system?

4:10 am

Haz1558

Poor Al may not have made it to the White House, but he's been used so many times in babble to clue words.

4:10 am

Ray100

how Haz?

4:11 am

Haz1558

If you want to indicate 'al' on the ending of a word, then you make reference to Mr Go4/6.

4:12 am

Ray100

aah...I see!

4:12 am

lynxxx

and he seems to be much more respected for his "Inconvenient Truth". Before that I only ever heard his name used mockingly

4:13 am

lynxxx

seems every cloud has a silver lining

4:13 am

Haz1558

That's true, lynxxx. I don't think he ever got quite the same derision as Dan Quayle, but he wasn't that well regarded before the film.

4:14 am

lynxxx

just realised the whole name is there, how odd

4:15 am

Haz1558

Which gives me al5/14, not quite the whole name - thanks!

4:15 am

lynxxx

lol Thanks!

4:23 am

Dianne

Finally finished this thing. Anyone need any clues?

4:23 am

Haz1558

Well done Dianne. I'm still working my way through it, thanks.

5:30 am

Haz1558

Hey ho Lori. Glad to see lots of re words, aren't you?

5:30 am

Haz1558

Hello Eva and Aquiul.

5:30 am

Eva

5:30 am

LoriP

5:30 am

Eva

5:30 am

5:30 am

Eva

5:30 am

LoriP

Mornin' Ehva, Aqiul

5:31 am

Eva

goiong to give up soon and go for a walk

5:31 am

Aqiul

I really am bad at this game :P I get about 50-60% of the words

5:31 am

Eva

that's not bad at all aqiui

5:31 am

Andree

hello to you all

5:31 am

Haz1558

That's a pretty good start.

5:32 am

Aqiul

You people are too kind :)

5:32 am

lynxxx

hi Aqiul - it gets (marginally) better the more you play, took me months to finish a grid

5:32 am

Eva

the only thing that's important is to enjoy it

5:32 am

Haz1558

Many of the words aren't in common usage and we only know them because we've been playing for a while.

5:32 am

lynxxx

and then Haz introduced me to Morewords

5:33 am

LoriP

It's not an easy game when you start out. Or a couple years later for that matter....

5:33 am

Aqiul

Months! :) I guess its worth it since i enjoy it :)

5:33 am

Haz1558

*Smug*

5:33 am

Aqiul

Oh yea I saw morewords too

5:33 am

Eva

does anyone have a clue for the de 8&9 combo (if it is a combo)?

5:33 am

Haz1558

It took me a long time to finish a grid as well, but that was in the days before people produced lists of second letters etc.

5:34 am

Haz1558

de8/55 - de plus first letter of the pirate's Jolly flag, running into what keeps the garden secure.

5:34 am

Eva

I have one de8/45 but it can't be pluralized

5:34 am

Haz1558

And de9 adds a letter to the end.

5:35 am

Andree

it was haz introduced me to morewords too

5:35 am

Haz1558

Or, de plus the jolly flag, ending in consumed food.

5:35 am

Eva

thanks guys!

5:35 am

lynxxx

TY Haz - and Eva for asking

5:35 am

Haz1558

Yes, I am on commission from morewords, although the annual cheque is slow in showing up. It's a great resource.

5:36 am

Soodlebum

morewords???? morewords???? Tell me more (words)

5:36 am

Haz1558

You're welcome!

5:36 am

Aqiul

Hahah :)

5:36 am

Haz1558

www.morewords.com It may just be the best thing since sliced bread.

5:36 am

Andree

quick haz another recruit

5:36 am

lynxxx

You don't know Soodle !!!!! Haz - you are falling down

5:37 am

Haz1558

I know - the rest of you keep your mitts off. That commission's mine.

5:37 am

LoriP

***Haz awaits here cheque for morewords promotion***

5:37 am

Haz1558

Using morewords, you type in letters you know, leave dashes for those you don't, hey presto, a list of likely words.

5:38 am

Soodlebum

I cant believe that I have been struggling, drowning, tearing my hair out etc etc, when such a little goldmine was out there. Aaaargh

5:38 am

Haz1558

And www.a2zwordfinder.com is another resource - I don't use it so often but is also useful.

5:38 am

Haz1558

Have I told you lately about PayPal, your online payment friend?

5:38 am

zoozzoom

LOL

5:38 am

LoriP

***Haz is absolutely shameless***

5:39 am

Haz1558

I do apologise, Soodle. You thought we were all wordsmiths of international renown, didn't you?

5:39 am

Soodlebum

Now I don't feel quite as foolish!!!!!

5:39 am

Aqiul

We all start somewhere! :D

5:40 am

Haz1558

There are those geniuses who can look at the grid, see every word within 10 seconds and rewire a house all at the same time. Then there's the rest of us who use every resource possible.

5:40 am

Andree

back later

5:40 am

Soodlebum

OMG! I just tried it. It works!!! i nearly feel like fireworks already. lol

5:40 am

Haz1558

Lori lies somewhere in the middle.

5:40 am

Haz1558

Isn't it great?

5:40 am

LoriP

Laters Andree.

5:40 am

Haz1558

Bye Andree, nice to see you again.

5:41 am

LoriP

More like "Lori lies". I'm a Dictionary gal from waaaay back. No buttons and dashes and new fangled gizmos for me.

5:41 am

Haz1558

morewords is great for words that you just don't know.

5:41 am

lynxxx

See - we've introduced you to another way of playing Babble - sans Lickety, sans Morewords - or with the lot! how nice are we

5:42 am

lynxxx

bye Andree

5:42 am

LoriP

You guys are letting all the secrets out of the closet... :)

5:42 am

Haz1558

That's the joy of it, as lynxxx says. You have your choice of how you want to play.

5:43 am

Haz1558

Have we all swallowed the truth drug by accident?

5:43 am

LoriP

While we're at it, I was the second person on the grassy knoll.

5:43 am

Haz1558

I thought I recognised you from behind the puff of smoke.

5:44 am

lynxxx

and we haven't even pushed Expert yet

5:44 am

lynxxx

BBL off to eat

5:44 am

Soodlebum

I think i wll leave morewords to the very very last resort. I can see myself getting very lazy, using it willy nilly. So - Note to Self....."LAST RESORT"

5:44 am

Haz1558

I know! Enjoy your meal, lynxxx, sorry Dr Who was a disappointment.

5:44 am

LoriP

Laters Lynx.

5:45 am

Haz1558

Yes, last resort only, Soodle, after all other measures have failed. But it's nice to know it's there.

5:45 am

LoriP

I've a room booked at the Last Resort. :p

5:49 am

LoriP

Why isn't gooder a word? Grammar don't matter anyways....

5:49 am

Haz1558

Because there's another word that's better...

5:50 am

LoriP

More gooder? Betterer?

5:50 am

Haz1558

Getting close.

5:51 am

LoriP

*** ducks ***

5:51 am

LoriP

*** was that a shoe? ***

5:52 am

Haz1558

I'm a rubbish shot.

5:52 am

LoriP

That bodes well for me then.

5:52 am

LoriP

***removes helmet***

5:53 am

Haz1558

Never let your guard down.

5:53 am

LoriP

***puts helmet back on***

5:54 am

Soodlebum

Lori - meet me in the Last Chance Saloon when you arrive at the Last Resort. We'll toast each other

5:54 am

LoriP

Will do Soodle.

5:54 am

Haz1558

How will you recognise each other?

5:55 am

Soodlebum

the look of haunted desperation.................

5:55 am

LoriP

Well, I'll be the one with the helmet on.

5:55 am

Haz1558

And the dictionary under the arm, Lori?

5:56 am

LoriP

Very worn out Dictionaries. Very, very tattered.

5:56 am

Haz1558

And, naturally, Soodle will have leprechauns playing at her feet and rainbows will be bouncing off pots of gold.

5:57 am

Soodlebum

More likely to be wearing a straight-jacket, and accompanied by men in white coats!!

5:57 am

Haz1558

Ah, straight from the Home for the Bewildered.

5:59 am

Soodlebum

Yup - up to 100gms of valium now!

5:59 am

carleekat

good morning....

5:59 am

Haz1558

It's a wonder you can find words at all.

5:59 am

Haz1558

Good morning carlee.

5:59 am

carleekat

Haz...have u got george under the stairs again?????

6:00 am

Haz1558

No, he's not here at the minute. I've no doubt he will return when he needs a bolthole away from the attentions of the press and those mad women who stalk him.

6:00 am

Haz1558

My understairs cupboard is always ready for him, he knows that.

6:01 am

LoriP

Mornin' carlee

6:01 am

Scrabbler

OOOhhh, a giant grid today. Good morning/day to all.

6:01 am

carleekat

ok..just checking..I see co mments about straight jackets...and..well..the mind runs with it

6:01 am

carleekat

hi there scrabs..lorip <tackle hug>

6:02 am

Haz1558

Good morning Scrabbler (nobody mention George now Scrabbler's here, we don't want to prolong her delusions)

6:02 am

Scrabbler

George is upstairs here, showering, Hazel.

6:02 am

Haz1558

*prolonging

6:02 am

Haz1558

Of course he is, Scrabbler. Where else would he be?

6:02 am

carleekat

too late haz

6:02 am

Haz1558

(Note the gentle tone. It doesn't do to argue with the delusional)

6:03 am

Scrabbler

Then we will go for a walk through the woods, looking out for the black bear that was recently seen up here.

6:03 am

Soodlebum

From her padded cell, she wonders who George is?

6:03 am

Scrabbler

TY for your gentleness, Hazel. Do not challenge my reality.

6:04 am

Haz1558

Yes, that black bear again. I'm sure George will know what to do.

6:04 am

Haz1558

George Clooney. Scrabbler thinks he's her fiance.

6:04 am

Haz1558

It's sad really. She's a doctor and everything but these things strike down the most unlikely people.

6:04 am

carleekat

but in truth he lives under haz's staircase

6:05 am

Scrabbler

Of course he is.

6:05 am

Haz1558

The saddest thing is that all babblers know that George lives under my staircase. He enjoys the solitude.

6:05 am

carleekat

so..what is new in babbleland..having been away.....i'm out of th eloop ( if I was ever in the loop that is)

6:05 am

Scrabbler

And the darkness and mildew.

6:05 am

Soodlebum

Scrabbler! I will fight you for him. I will fight you with one hand behind my back. I will fight you with one hand behind my back and standing on one leg. I will fight to the end!!

6:06 am

Haz1558

Mildew. As if I would let an international star live with mildew.

6:06 am

Scrabbler

Me too. Let's doa 3-way duel.

6:06 am

Soodlebum

Handbags at dawn, then?

6:06 am

Scrabbler

Get your weapons ready, ladies.

6:07 am

Haz1558

See, this is why George loves my understair cupboard. Peace from stalking women.

6:07 am

Uneaixoise

Haz, did you watch the tribute to Walter Cronkite Sunday nite? They showed him at George's Italian villa, vacationing for a week!

6:07 am

Uneaixoise

Apparently they were close friends

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Hi Une. Yes, we enjoyed our stay with Walt.

6:07 am

carleekat

its ok haz.... i believe you...

6:07 am

carleekat

and I just don't get WHY anyone wants him

6:08 am

Haz1558

I didn't see it Une. Yes, George has that Lake Como place as well, but those Italian women are shameless.

6:08 am

Uneaixoise

LOL!

6:08 am

Haz1558

You're of Italian extracation, aren't you Scrabbler?

6:08 am

Scrabbler

I am 50% Italian. George admires my heritage.

6:08 am

Haz1558

QED

6:08 am

Uneaixoise

Scrabs LOL!

6:08 am

Soodlebum

I was the furtive looking woman peering out from behind the bouganvillas at the back of the villa

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Haha, Soodle. And we thought you were paparazza

6:09 am

Haz1558

That poor man. At least he has peace here.

6:09 am

Scrabbler

rags

6:09 am

Uneaixoise

oh, soodle, I had assumed you were the one submerged in the lake with spy paraphernalia!

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Oops, I am using the office laptop, so no Babble Expert.

6:09 am

Soodlebum

No. that was my evil twin.

6:10 am

Uneaixoise

aaahhhh

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Aha, we saw a periscope emerging from the lago, Soodle

6:10 am

Haz1558

Dear goodness. Ever thought of writing soap opera scripts, Soodle?

6:10 am

Scrabbler

And someone was making bird sounds--was that you, Hazel?

6:10 am

Soodlebum

Look. I explained all that to the local constabulary. I dropped my earring. Thats all. Jeese

6:10 am

carleekat

sheesh.. I ask a question and everyone is so googly eyed over george that I go unnoticed * strolling into corner quietly.*

6:11 am

Soodlebum

Haz - my life is one long soap opera. lo

6:11 am

Scrabbler

Why do I like him? Talk, dark, handsome, hairy, intelligent--my kind of man.

6:11 am

Haz1558

Sorry, were we not paying you enough attention, carlee?

6:11 am

Uneaixoise

pasta al fresco con Giorgio . . . sigh

6:12 am

carleekat

I'll take a crumb haz

6:12 am

Scrabbler

Carlee, how are you doing?

6:12 am

Scrabbler

We got caught up in our fantasy lives, Carlee.

6:12 am

Read-Knit-Bake

GM everyone. Speedfreak. Are you there?..Going to Maine tomorrow for 5 days. Will jot a quick email later.

6:12 am

carleekat

I'm good...I read u were having a good time kayaking last week scrabs

6:12 am

Haz1558

The evil twin thing/long lost sisters and brothers, all must feature in the soap opera writer's manual, filed under 'Run out of ideas'

6:12 am

Scrabbler

Hi RKB

6:12 am

carleekat

hi rkb

6:13 am

Soodlebum

In honour of his George-ness, I have just finished all my ER's. Now THATS devotion!!

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Fun, fun,RKB!

6:13 am

Uneaixoise

Haz, don't forget AMNESIA!

6:13 am

Scrabbler

We had a great time, Carlee--my head is still there in the Adirondack Mtns.

6:14 am

Haz1558

Oh absolutely. And unwanted, unplanned pregnancies.

6:14 am

carleekat

i'm still at camp myself..i love sleeping in a tent....

6:14 am

Soodlebum

And waking up in a shower - 4 years later. A personal favourite of mine.

6:14 am

Scrabbler

And recovery from a terminal illness because of a bone marrow transplant from an unknown, lost sibling.

6:14 am

Scrabbler

We slept in an Adirondack guide tent--very cool out there, even during a wicked thunderstorm.

6:14 am

Read-Knit-Bake

Scrabbler...looks like rain on and off...usually we are very lucky. The four college roommates meet for 5-7 days for a vacation at one one friend's house on China Lake.

6:14 am

Haz1558

And suffering from a rare disease known only to the scriptwriters and faded entries in medical textbooks.

6:14 am

Scrabbler

How nie, RKB.

6:15 am

Soodlebum

And the baddies ALWAYS getting caught.

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Nice, I mean

6:15 am

Read-Knit-Bake

jear

6:15 am

carleekat

soap operas are still on?....

6:15 am

Uneaixoise

like the mystery fatal illness in Love Story -- the one that keeps you beautiful even in your death bed!

6:15 am

Haz1558

Always. But always getting out again.

6:16 am

Read-Knit-Bake

oops. sorry about that...just thinking I will be away for those five days..will miss the chatter!

6:16 am

Haz1558

Victorian heroines were always succumbing to consumption, the writers in those days had no imagination.

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Our fantasies and lunacy, RKB?

6:17 am

carleekat

and suffering from the vapours...

6:17 am

Uneaixoise

succumbing and singing . . . in a garrett in Paris . . .

6:17 am

louuol2004

6:18 am

Scrabbler

LOL at "vapours"

6:18 am

Haz1558

un8 - not being in a chair

6:18 am

louuol2004

6:20 am

Uneaixoise

6:20 am

Scrabbler

Aha, and what about laudanum--that was used a lot too

6:20 am

Uneaixoise

6:20 am

Soodlebum

And the garret has an uninterrupted view of the Eiffel Tower. don't forget the Eiffel Tower

6:20 am

carleekat

poppy juice the scrabs

6:21 am

Uneaixoise

when I worked au pair in Paris, I stayed in an unheated "maid's room" -- tiny round window framed the Eiffel Tower :-)

6:21 am

Scrabbler

And leeches for bloodletting too

6:22 am

Soodlebum

If films were to be believed - every window in paris has a view of Le Tower Eiffel

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Did you smoke Gauloises, Une?

6:22 am

Haz1558

Well, it is big.

Scrabbler

It is too early for me to get these expert clues.

6:25 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

6:26 am

Haz1558

if de8 started with inter, you'd be asking lots of questions.

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Alas, at 88/226 I must get ready for work. It has been a great start to the day, chatting with funny buddies here in Babbleland.

mom2han8

Yes, I figured that's just what you wanted to hear. It is another un8/50.

8:40 am

mom2han8

wow... got it.

8:41 am

mom2han8

I had tried that word without the ending and it was not there... so I thought it was not a word that would have a past tense, silly me... LOL.

8:41 am

mom2han8

If you cannot do something in the present tense... why can you have done it in the past??? LOL!

8:43 am

jacq

because the present tense has other words like dethrone or throw??

8:43 am

mom2han8

OK... but throne is a word.

8:43 am

jacq

i gave up understanding the whims of the english language a long time ago

8:44 am

jacq

am just glad i didn't learn it as a second language

8:44 am

mom2han8

there is no un6 to "go with" the un8... that's all I'm saying, LOL!

8:45 am

Judi

We must all blame Latin for the root of all English language evil.

8:45 am

mom2han8

and throw is an irregular verb

8:45 am

mom2han8

the root of that un8 is not an irregular verb

8:46 am

mom2han8

OMG... I am getting a little carried away... sorry. I guess I am feeling persnickety today!

Down to 109. Must take a little break. Hiya, Crossy. *Poof*

8:48 am

mom2han8

Well then.... they should not be on the board...

8:49 am

Hello Crosshair

8:49 am

mom2han8

Hi crossy... I am being persnickety today.

8:50 am

jacq

ladies read a certain type of book? (hides my collection of gruesome murders and forensic stuff)

8:50 am

mom2han8

If your wife likes soft-core porn Diana Gabaldon is great, LOL... not that there is anything wrong with a little soft core porn, mind ya.

8:50 am

jacq

maybe i'm not a lady

8:50 am

crosshair

oh..lol

8:51 am

mom2han8

The first one I read was fine, but then they were all the same after that.

8:51 am

mom2han8

I am currently rereading Bram Stoker's Dracula.

8:51 am

jacq

porn is like that LOL

8:51 am

jacq

i'm reading doestoveski's the idiot

8:51 am

8:51 am

Sudokuaddict

s

8:51 am

mom2han8

lol jac

8:51 am

jacq

but one of the best written books i ever read was snow falling on cedars can't remember the author though

8:52 am

mom2han8

The funniest thing is that my mother recommended her to me because she thought I would like the historical fiction angle, LOL.

8:52 am

crosshair

before her sight went to hell she used to read v.c andrews and danielle steel..but im looking for a few fresh authors for her to enjoy

8:52 am

jacq

can't even spell dostoevski doestoveski whoever

8:52 am

mom2han8

Liked Snow Falling on Cedars myself.

8:52 am

mom2han8

we know who you meant.

8:53 am

mom2han8

My favorite novel of the 20th Century is A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving... Cider House Rules runs a close second.

8:53 am

jacq

virginia andrews is ok don't really like that heart strings tugging stuff would rather have blood and guts

8:53 am

crosshair

cider house rules..ive heard of that one quite a bit of late...

8:54 am

mom2han8

Patricia Cornwell or Kay Scarpetta might appeal to her Crossy.

8:54 am

crosshair

oh dont worry jacq..she is getting a nice stephen king diet as well;)

8:54 am

mom2han8

cider house is one of the best books ever... in my opinion.

8:54 am

mom2han8

My husband just started reading Dean Koontz a lot.

8:54 am

jacq

jonathon kellerman is ok not too gory and a nice psych angle too

8:55 am

mom2han8

Now you people are out of my genre, LOL!

8:55 am

jacq

dean koonts is quite good for an easy read

8:55 am

crosshair

i used to read a lot of dean koontz..koontz is for stephen king lovers who want something light lol

8:55 am

jacq

agrees

8:55 am

mom2han8

I used to read Stephen King... but then they all just felt the same... though I liked The Girl Who Loved Tom Jordan... a little different... more psychological than supernatural.

8:56 am

zoozzoom

8:56 am

NonoNanette

8:57 am

mom2han8

8:58 am

mom2han8

8:58 am

mom2han8

John Grisham's first book... A Time to Kill.. that one I really liked.

8:58 am

If she likes funny.... David Sedaris' Naked is an absolute scream... he reads the book on tape himself... hysterical.

9:03 am

crosshair

crossy notes that down

9:04 am

mom2han8

Garrison Keillor also reads Lake Wobegon Days on tape... which makes it great to listen to.

9:05 am

mom2han8

And, believe it or not... Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods is truly one of the funniest things I have read in years... don't know who reads it on tape, but it is funny.

9:05 am

crosshair

my better half goes into a coma listening to audio books she says:/ so it has to be books converted to e-books for her reader;)

9:05 am

mom2han8

I am not an audio book gal by nature... but found Naked even funnier when read by Sedaris.

9:06 am

mom2han8

I did not listen to A Walk in the Woods

9:07 am

crosshair

her reader WILL do audio books and i put a few danielle steels on there to test it

9:07 am

mom2han8

I would imagine that most of the authors we all just discussed are available for her e-book reader.

9:07 am

crosshair

indeed trhey are mom

9:07 am

mom2han8

My daughter used to like to listen to the Harry Potter's on long car rides...

9:13 am

crosshair

9:14 am

jacq

all furniture is is a means to be seated comfortably, so long as it's clean it doesn't matter how old it is, i ca't understand people who spend thousands on sofas

9:15 am

mom2han8

I had an epiphany in Target the other day... seriously... I was there with a friend who seems to have limitless funds... and I almost bought something that I should not have... but then I thought.. will this make me happy? And then I realized that I already was, so what did I need some "thing" for??? BTW... my friend is NEVER happy... so I guess she fills up on "stuff".

9:15 am

crosshair

though it seems to be coming back into style again..maybe if i wait 20 more years....

Or that "My country tis of thee" is set to the tune of "God save the Queen"?

10:13 am

I hope the yak and sherpa guide don't get here too soon -- i wouldn't know where to keep them

10:13 am

rururocks

in the yak room

10:14 am

jmcnrick

I think it has more to do with the fact that we had our own War of 1812 and most people don't understand that they are not the same war -- it was just a busy year

10:14 am

jmcnrick

yes but there is no sherpa room

10:14 am

Pineapples and sugar were the major industries of the early town of Yeppoon. The first European residents arrived in 1865. Along with other sugar growing areas of Australia, South Sea Islanders were used as labourers on the sugar plantations, often without their consent (which was called Blackbirding).No sugar is grown in the area today, and pineapple production has declined significantly in recent years.

6:44 pm

8:53 pm

Dorens

sorry hsh

8:54 pm

hshliz

this was the child that drove me nuts.....go go go all the time. It's a toss up here. DO I want him to have a boy just like him? Or do I want him to have a girl so he can find out what what all his former girlfriends parents felt.....lol

8:54 pm

lbdawger

are you going to have it removed, hsh?

8:54 pm

hshliz

having an ultra sound tomorrow. Haven't seen the surgeon yet, but primary doc says it has to go.

8:55 pm

lbdawger

lol, he can have a busy little girl and cover both bases!

8:55 pm

hshliz

lol

8:55 pm

lbdawger

you're going to feel so much better with it removed.

8:55 pm

hshliz

I can't wait to have surgery at this point. Sounds strange, but true.

8:56 pm

Dorens

doesn't sound strange at all to me.. that's how i felt when i finally had my herniated disc removed

8:56 pm

lbdawger

that's pretty much the way folks feel, hsh.

8:56 pm

lbdawger

I have a friend that said she'd take it out herself if she knew how.

8:57 pm

Dorens

is

8:57 pm

Dorens

sorry, mistake there

8:57 pm

lbdawger

was wondering about that, Dorens! lol

8:58 pm

hshliz

s'ok....I used to have a cyst that was the same way. As I was having it lanced the nurse would ask.....doesn't that hurt? And the answer was always no. The pressure release was wonderful !!!1

9:01 pm

9:19 pm

are there any "oo" words in here?

9:20 pm

lbdawger

i was thinking of "waiting for go**** as a clue but wasn't sure if anyone would know the play.

9:20 pm

lbdawger

no, Jen

9:20 pm

JenMO16

thanks ibdawger

9:20 pm

Dorens

we always aim high, dawg... hoping they are there

9:21 pm

Dorens

most people I know haven't actually read or seen the play, but the title seems to have entered our culture somehow

9:21 pm

lbdawger

the only reason i remember the title is from "Home Improvement*...Tim tried to scalp his tickets! lol

9:21 pm

Dorens

and babblers are particularly intelligent folks, if a bit crazy (how many hours do we spend here?)

9:22 pm

lbdawger

I had to read the play for an English class. Thought it was one of the most boring things we had to read.

9:23 pm

Dorens

I actually read it in college.. english major, course in modern drama.. ibsen, strindberg, george bernard shaw, o'neill, some other irish guys, albee etc

9:23 pm

Dorens

can't say i really did understand this one, or rhinoscerous by ionesco... but they did entertain

9:23 pm

lbdawger

I probably would have enjoyed it if my major was English. lol

9:24 pm

Dorens

lol

9:26 pm

Dorens

ahhh fireworks. and I'm off. see you tomorrow, most likely dawg.. night all

9:26 pm

lbdawger

nah, probably wouldn't either, the profs at my college were oddballs. Can't quite describe how they fell in the grip of obscurity

9:27 pm

Dorens

my modern drama prof was the drama critic for the village voice... very interesting character, but ridiculously arrogant

9:27 pm

lbdawger

whooooo hoooooo DORENS!!! sweet dreams!

9:27 pm

Dorens

thanks dawg.

9:28 pm

jillibus

dorens, there's a great Britcom called "Waiting for God"

9:29 pm

jillibus

Hi all again

9:30 pm

Nef

hello fellow babblers, I was told this was easy, so I dove in this noon; only have done 50 words because I've been gone all day. How is everybody?

9:31 pm

lbdawger

Hi Nef! it's not a bad grid considering its size!

9:31 pm

jillibus

hi nef -- I've been in and out, 97 left and supper to get so unlikely to finish

9:31 pm

lbdawger

i'm hawt and whiney! and going to get whinier tomorrow! how about you?

9:32 pm

jillibus

I was hot but just got back from a lovely swim in the sea, then a cool shower and hairwash

9:33 pm

lbdawger

no nearby seas, Jilli. sounds lovely tho

9:33 pm

Nef

we've ahd some rain today! About an inch overnight; and another 1/2" with hail here this afternoon!@ Things really look lots better today! :-)

9:33 pm

Nef

sounds wonderful, jilli!

9:33 pm

jillibus

We really need rain here -- big fire danger.

9:34 pm

lbdawger

we're getting smoke from Canada. Not sure where the fires are, but they sure are smokey!

9:34 pm

jillibus

Kelowna, BC, in the interior, is afire.

9:35 pm

Nef

Here in the Twin Citries we've been in a bit of a drought for the past few years. We are something like 10 inches behind in rainfall; whereas western MN has had too much

9:36 pm

jillibus

under control now, I hear -- evacuees allowed back home but watchful waiting...

9:36 pm

jillibus

Canada, to the USA, is Terra Incognita

9:37 pm

lbdawger

not to those of us who live close by, jilli.

9:38 pm

Nef

Is that where one of the regulars lives? (can't remember who right now, though)

9:38 pm

jillibus

well, we know where fires in California are, but who knows where fires in Canada are?

9:39 pm

Nef

jilli, I know where Canada is! ;-)

9:39 pm

jillibus

no babblers I know of are in Kelowna

9:39 pm

jillibus

congratulations, nef, lol!

9:39 pm

Nef

cybernan? Is that who I'm thinking of?

9:40 pm

lbdawger

Jilli, you want to keep your beautiful country a secret, you don't want it exploited like the US is.

9:41 pm

jillibus

Cybernan is in Calgary, Alberta, I think

9:42 pm

Nef

jilli I grew up 50 miles east of North Dakota and 70 miles south of Canada. When I put it that way, most people can kind of figure it out.

9:42 pm

Nef

okay, isn't she dealing with fires there too?

9:43 pm

jillibus

nef, I just wish you had said which Canadian province you were 70 miles south of.

9:43 pm

BabbleRabble

why?

9:44 pm

jillibus

I mean, we don't say we're X miles north of the USA

9:44 pm

jillibus

Not in the Calagary area, nef

9:45 pm

BabbleRabble

good for you

9:45 pm

Nef

Manitoba; but why would I need to say that? THAT would confuse some people (like the ones who think North Dakota is near Alaska!)

9:45 pm

jillibus

*Calgary

9:46 pm

jillibus

Because Manitobans would like it, nef

9:46 pm

jillibus

and it might teach a few people something, perish the thought

9:46 pm

Nef

jilli, the state of North Dakota was actually considering changing their name to just plain old Dakota a few years ago so that they would attract more tourists.

9:47 pm

jillibus

and what did the South Dakotans think of that?

9:47 pm

JenMO16

I just got my 100th word! woohoo

9:47 pm

jillibus

whee, jen!

9:47 pm

Nef

WTG, Jen!

9:48 pm

always something to gripe about

9:48 pm

Hey jill, I hear salt spring island has some very good lamb; do you eat that?

9:48 pm

hurshy

*groan*

9:48 pm

hurshy

(speaking of having things to gripe about)

9:48 pm

hurshy

facebook just got worse

9:49 pm

jillibus

You better beleive it, Locks! And hi! My fave nephew lives in Edmonton

9:49 pm

jillibus

babrab, shut up

9:49 pm

BabbleRabble

shut up?

9:49 pm

Nef

I don't think they minded. Their state is SOUTH Dakota, so they have more tourists! I think it was all a publicity stunt; but there are people who call the MN tourism dept. (where my daughter works) and think that they can go skiing here in the summer

9:50 pm

Locks99

cool jill. Have only had SS Island lamb once, many years ago

9:50 pm

BabbleRabble

hahahaha

9:50 pm

jillibus

nef, we ran into that all the time in Montreal.

9:51 pm

BabbleRabble

shut up hahahaha

9:51 pm

Nef

What changed at facebook hurshy?

9:51 pm

jillibus

how did that happen, locks?

9:51 pm

hurshy

my grandfather joined.

9:51 pm

Nef

LOL, hurshy! That's cool! :-D

9:51 pm

Locks99

Nef, i've known lots of people go skiiing in MN in the summer......you've got 10000 lakes

9:52 pm

hurshy

it was bad enough when my mom joined. i had to accept her friend request, but i put her on the limited profile. well then she figures this out and says how come she can't see everything i post, so i have to change that.

9:52 pm

jillibus

OOh, hurshy -- would I like him? Should I make him my friend or is he too young for me?

9:52 pm

JenMO16

babble, i got a hundred words!

9:52 pm

hurshy

my grandfather, on the other hand, doesn't even SEND me a friend request. he sends a message to my inbox telling him to make me his friend. so not only have i got to be facebook friends, i have to make the request!

9:53 pm

BabbleRabble

Yea, Jen!

9:53 pm

hurshy

jilli, he's past 80 and still happily married to my grandmother... and i have no idea if you would like him.

9:54 pm

jillibus

oh darn, hursh, but all the best to him and her

9:54 pm

jillibus

and GOOD FOR HIM!

9:55 pm

Nef

hurshy, my hubby is stumbling through facebook and he thinks he has to find out his IQ and all the rest of that stuff too. THEN he keeps asking me who these people are that he's befriending there!

9:55 pm

jillibus

I'm FB friends with my adult grandkids, but they're not babblers, dammit.

9:56 pm

lbdawger

got distracted trying to find info on the canadian fires. and now it's time for me to head for the pillows. see you all tomorrow. good luck with the grid

9:56 pm

hurshy

my mom and my grandfather are people who i would be in touch with anyway, and who i do not necessarily wish to share my every random thought with. this makes facebook an inappropriate venue for being friends. and i am sure family are the ONLY facebook friends either of them has, so it's very silly.

9:56 pm

BabbleRabble

be well, lbd

9:57 pm

jillibus

nightynight, lbd, and thanks for paying attention :)

9:57 pm

Nef

good night lbd

9:57 pm

hurshy

and i can't even post a complaint about it on facebook! so i had to come here to complain!

9:58 pm

jillibus

hursh, could you introduce them toa group they might enjoy?

in my early days as a babbler, i used to try to get family members to play. now i am SO GLAD they all refused so i have one refuge at least.

10:00 pm

hurshy

i don't see how, jilli. hey papa, how about joining the "quadruple heart bypass survivors" group?

10:00 pm

Nef

that would be the best idea; get them into a group they might enjoy (or make your page very BORING!

10:01 pm

hurshy

besides, no matter what i suggest, he'll still be my friend, as will my mom, and therefore i have to think before i post anything, "will i get flak about this?"

10:02 pm

Nef

true. I have a few nieces and nephews that I've gently chided for what they have posted on their sites <blushing while admitting this>

10:03 pm

jillibus

sheesh, I'm hands off about anybody's postings!

10:04 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

10:04 pm

hurshy

are they posting nude pics or something, nef...?

10:04 pm

jillibus

Well, hursh, I'm their age and I can't imagine anything shocking me any more

10:05 pm

hurshy

it's not a matter of shocking, jilli, it's a matter of a lot of things... things where we might disagree politically, things that are just random that i don't feel like sharing with them...

10:06 pm

jillibus

well, I'll MMOB

10:06 pm

jillibus

oops -- supper time going off...

10:07 pm

hurshy

facebook should have a big banner at the top that explains that the proper etiquette is that if you are the person with more power in the relationship, due to age, employment, or whatever reason, you do not initiate a facebook relationship.

10:08 pm

hurshy

it's a whole new thing... like sexual harrassment, but now it's online-personal-space-invasion

10:09 pm

BabbleRabble

get a second account and only invite those you want

10:09 pm

Bugsaw

You can always politely decline Hurshy. Just tell them that you wouldl rather email them and talk to them directly than have them intrude on your peer relationships.

10:09 pm

Bugsaw

They might decide you are too radical for them and just back off. lol

10:09 pm

hurshy

i should have done that, bugsaw... i wonder if it is too late to go back.

10:10 pm

Nef

Hurshy, my daughter was talking to me. My niece had posted about how she'd been to a party and had gotten high (she's 18, and was job hunting at the time); and my nephew had posted a few suggestive pictures on his page

10:12 pm

Bugsaw

Probably not. I saw my son prancing down the street wearing a dress in the gay pride parade and I told him it was not the best way to inform your mother! (He still says he was doing it for shock value and to support his gay friends, which could be true, but still it was not the smartest thing to post when employers google people.

10:12 pm

hurshy

so did you chide for the getting high, or provide the purely informational point that employers are now looking at potential employees social networking pages? (although, perhaps she has her privacy settings well set)

10:12 pm

jmcnrick

my son was annoyed when I found out his gf dumped him from FB

10:13 pm

jillibus

Nice to be thought of as Persona Non Grata just because of seniority

10:13 pm

DR1965

hi gang- could I get help on the ea5/10 before the hungry person?

10:13 pm

Nef

(my dtr. talking had kept me from answering your question earlier) She agreed with me about what her cousins had posted. I think younger people don't consider that "the WHOLW world can read some of those comments on websites; they forget that facebook and myspace are pretty open to others

10:14 pm

sugyroxdemsocks

hey. if an employer doesnt hire you because of your sexual orientation then thats a lawsuit

10:14 pm

jillibus

My descendants are very discreet on FB

10:14 pm

BabbleRabble

ea -- consumed

10:14 pm

hurshy

yeah but good luck proving it sugyrox

10:14 pm

DR1965

ty BR- was using the wrong e

10:14 pm

sugyroxdemsocks

come in wearing a dress to your followup

10:14 pm

jmcnrick

they may not hire you because of your exhibitionism -- which is not a lawsuit

10:14 pm

jillibus

I shall now leave this discussion

10:15 pm

jillibus

not that anyone cares

10:15 pm

torgone

They don't have to tell you why they didn't hire you ..

10:15 pm

hurshy

jilli - there was a friends episode where chandler got promoted, and the people at work he used to hang out with and joke around with no longer wanted to do that. it is not unreasonable, as phoebe pointed out to him.

10:15 pm

sugyroxdemsocks

so if a man walked down the street in a parade wearing a suit, he is exibiting his heterosexuality

10:15 pm

DR1965

Bye Jilli-

10:15 pm

jmcnrick

now jill don't leave

10:15 pm

jmcnrick

jmcnrick

10:16 pm

hurshy

she said, "they still like you, and they think you're a great boss - you're just not their friend anymore"

10:16 pm

DR1965

10:16 pm

mkg

hi all. anyone got j clues before i go to sleep?

10:17 pm

Bugsaw

I love my son and don't really care what his preference is, but I know a lot of employers do care, even when it has nothing to do with his ability to work. I guess I just wanted to keep protecting him sugy.

10:17 pm

sugyroxdemsocks

bosses can never be friends... i keep it strictly bis. congrats to them ... im going back to babbling.. hahaha

10:17 pm

Nef

hurshy, I've been very low key about telling them that they shouldn't post "certain" things on social networks. I even told my own cousin that when she joined (and she's just a few years younger than me). SHe had posted her phone number and other contact info onher website

10:17 pm

phone call ---- now, re icon themes, everyone says they don't have time. This game is supposed to be a cooperative affair, and there's no fun for me doing the icon themes alone, or with three or four others who may or may not be on at the same time. The whole idea is to share information. Sorry to gripe (babrab), but it seems in order to follow the crowd, ignore the icon thmes others have taken the pains to think about and offer for your enjoyment if you bother to click on the icons. Here endeth the final lesson, and I'll google whales and dolphins for about 5 minutes as many of you could do too.

And by the way, while I'm griping, I'm SICK of jokes and misinformed vicious cracks and lies about Canada's great universal health care system, which has saved my life promptly twice, with NO bureaucratic interference. I pay $54/month premium and that's it for medical care in BC.
