1:28 am

They don't teach British history in Oz?

1:28 am

MissOmnibus

wasnt something i opted for at school, i was more at one with human sciences, art and music

1:29 am

jillibus

well, history was mandatory when I went to school

1:30 am

jillibus

so never mind. Are you not using Lickety's list, MissO?

1:31 am

MissOmnibus

that thing scares me lol

1:32 am

jillibus

It's a BIG help! Tells you the first 2 letters of the word and how long it is and the point score.

1:32 am

MissOmnibus

oooo

1:32 am

MissOmnibus

now that i know how to read it... :P

1:32 am

jillibus

and if you type the word in at the toop, it goes to the right place in the list.

1:32 am

MissOmnibus

ooer genius

1:32 am

jillibus

*at the top

1:34 am

helensgirlkid

i would never finish a grid, I think, if I didn't have Lickety to tell me that that **7 goes between THESE two words, and that there are three **4's right together, and - oh, well, I'd just fold up and die if I couldn't look at Lickety - or another two-letter clue list, but filling the words in is SO helpful - for the last however many!

1:35 am

MissOmnibus

lol

1:35 am

Good night all - enjoy the goat's ear.

It always brings a smile to my face when someone tells me about their kids and I think... OK... way worse! LOL!

OMG Crossy... I am with you there.

7:17 am

Trifioso

I have a friend in town who buried her 9 year old last year, which NO ONE should ever have to do. On my worst days, I try to remember her, and breathe, breathe, breathe

7:17 am

mom2han8

I have this friend, lovely woman, who cannot be on the phone for more than 3 minutes without something going horribly wrong with her 10 year old and her 13 year old, either separately or together...

7:18 am

mom2han8

Trif... so true... so true.

7:18 am

Trifioso

I wished we lived closer, crossy - I can't help but feel that our sons would be great chums

7:19 am

mom2han8

All I know is that I get glowing reports from her teachers and parents of her friends... so I just accept who she is at home, LOL.

7:20 am

Trifioso

once they finished peeing themselves laughing over the fact that I thought they would be "chums" that is....

7:20 am

crosshair

most likely trif,my boy is good that way.open and honest..but would chat with jack the ripper if i didnt warn him.see the good in everyone he does

7:20 am

OMG>.. Trif... I texted "kewl" to my daughter the other day and she was like... "MOM!"

7:20 am

hego

hi everyone

7:20 am

mom2han8

hi hego

7:21 am

Trifioso

can you say more about that, mom2? I struggle with that GREATLY with tertiare - she is a beast at home, but angelic in school, so a lot of her issues go unresolved, as the don't present near a counselor...it's really frustrating

7:21 am

crosshair

kids dont know or are too young..we invented computer speak in the 80,s lol

7:21 am

hego

crossy, Are you still wearing the bacon hat and the whipped cream?

7:22 am

crosshair

sorry hugo..ate the hat

7:22 am

mom2han8

More about what? The dichotomous personality disorder of the average teenager?

7:22 am

Trifioso

hmm - she is just 10, though

7:22 am

mom2han8

One of my kids friends texted me the meaning of LOL recently.... can you imagine??? She thought I would not "get" it... LOL!

7:22 am

hego

Now if you eat the cream it will really get interesting.

7:22 am

Trifioso

crossy, did I tell you about this year's science project yet?

7:23 am

crosshair

do tell triff;)

7:23 am

mom2han8

Trif... I often think of the Billy Joel song, "The Stranger"... we are all like that on some level... show different parts of ourselves in different places, etc... kids are not different... also, better to act out at home (not for us, of course).

7:23 am

jmcnrick

sorry phone

7:23 am

7:23 am

jmcnrick

hi hego

7:24 am

mom2han8

Just talking about our kids...

7:24 am

Trifioso

Last year Primo and his mate made a model wind turbine, and tested it for efficiency and such. The actual name for the technology they used is "hawt" which stands for high (something) wind turbine, so they called their model "hawt stuff"

7:24 am

Wolvie

good morning all - my first word was an st 8. good or bad omen? :-)

7:24 am

jmcnrick

poor mom did you text her that IMHO u r an ageist?

7:24 am

hego

Hi jmc, you did. Crossy streaked the chog

7:24 am

mom2han8

That's cool Trif.

7:24 am

Trifioso

This year, they are doing a similar thing, but want to hitch the turbine up to a hydraulic component, to measure the efficiency when wind and water are added together.

7:24 am

jmcnrick

what? do it again! *gets out the reddi whip*

7:25 am

mom2han8

jmc... I should have! I'm not that quick, though!

7:25 am

Wolvie

sounds neat trif. :-)

7:25 am

Trifioso

I thought they were being all cool and ecological - turns out they are doing it because they want to call it "hawt dam"

7:25 am

mom2han8

Trif... how old is he? That sounds like a very advanced project, which is a good thing!

7:25 am

crosshair

lol trif,last year i helped my son with a project,he made what is know as a trench radio(just google for info) dont know who had more fun,him or me;)

7:25 am

jmcnrick

7:25 am

mom2han8

OK... now that is clever Trif.

7:25 am

Trifioso

I laughed SO FREAKING HARD when he told me!!!!

7:26 am

mom2han8

I learned something about muck fires in Florida when my daughter had a project recently.

7:26 am

Trifioso

he is 16.5

7:26 am

mom2han8

did you text him ROFLMAO... and then explain what it meant?

7:26 am

mom2han8

Wow... he sounds very intelligent and clever.

7:26 am

jmcnrick

7:27 am

Trifioso

or, 198 months....remember when we used to give our kids ages in months?

7:27 am

mom2han8

I don't know... I had never heard of them... apparently they are underground fires caused by lightning and fed by minerals in the soil...

7:27 am

jmcnrick

cool beans mom I never heard of that

7:27 am

mom2han8

OMG... I don't even like to say she is 13 y ears... don't want to convert it into months... makes me feel very old.

7:28 am

crosshair

interesting mom,reminds me of that town in the states they had to close because of underground fires in the coal mines

7:28 am

mom2han8

Neither had I... I like when I learn something.

7:28 am

Trifioso

wow, that is cool mom2! The earth is an endlessly fascinating place, isn't it?

7:28 am

mom2han8

OK. Crossy... Never heard of that either.

7:28 am

mom2han8

There is a town in NJ that is no more as of a few years ago due to flooding.

7:29 am

mom2han8

Yes Trif it is.

7:29 am

jmcnrick

7:32 am

Trifioso

that's a monk's haircut? I thought it was a chef's hat....the one with the T, that is....

7:32 am

mom2han8

OH, maybe you are right Trif... well, in any case the clue worked.

7:32 am

jmcnrick

the spelling i have is too many letters but i will get it

7:32 am

Trifioso

actually, I think you are probably right.

7:33 am

mom2han8

OK JMC... think of the chef's hat, LOL.

7:33 am

Wolvie

like the beginning of cheese...

7:33 am

mom2han8

Now i will have to look it up.

7:33 am

jmcnrick

no that is a chef hat -- the monk hair cut is a tonsure

7:34 am

jmcnrick

but thanks for the clue mom and trif with the assist!

7:34 am

mom2han8

It is arabic for hat...

7:34 am

mom2han8

I am in an ongoing heated discussion with some members of my meeting about the title of a workshop and keep getting distracted

7:44 am

Wolvie

hego - i tremble in fear just contemplating doing it. I will have to try tho. :-)

7:44 am

jmcnrick

ty too hego

7:44 am

Trifioso

what is the focus of the workshop, jmc?

7:44 am

mom2han8

hego... every time I try to do it I get frustrated... so I decided that today is the day I am going to master it.

7:45 am

jmcnrick

it is a discussion with members of the freshmand class of the annapolis naval academy

7:45 am

Trifioso

novel navy?

7:45 am

jmcnrick

but the workshop was entitled Life in the Service as though the military was the only form of service to our country

7:45 am

hego

If I can do it, I know you folks can. And the rewards are great.

7:46 am

Trifioso

first year fears? putting the U in USN?

7:46 am

Wolvie

I will give it a go - i see great things in this little gadget

7:46 am

mom2han8

Well, I am sick of being the only one in the house who does not know how to do it... then I have to wait for someone to find the time to do it for me... so I am trying to do it myself.

7:46 am

jmcnrick

life in the military would be fine with me

7:47 am

jmcnrick

go mom and wolvie!

7:47 am

Wolvie

holy crap. the fi 5/22 i just got was a pure monkey. lol

7:47 am

Trifioso

I tried to update mine yesterday, mom2, and couldn't do it. I could charge my ipod fine, but the computer couldn't see the ipod itself, so I couldnt sync it. totally mystified.

7:47 am

TheLegend

i dont know why you would think that jmc....the word service has always typically referred to the armed services....why are you letting semantics upset you?

7:47 am

Trifioso

the navy way of life?

7:48 am

hego

Most apple software is really user friendly and intuitive. Just remain calm and follow the prompts.

7:48 am

Trifioso

life the navy way?

7:48 am

jmcnrick

first legend you should understand that i work with the military daily and that i am a quaker

7:48 am

mom2han8

trif... they have it set up for "autofill"... which I think is the problem on some level... I don't know. I need iTunes for Dummies.

7:48 am

Wolvie

i do hego - it's just so many years of PC use - lol. I am on a mac now too

7:48 am

TheLegend

and your point is?

7:49 am

jmcnrick

my objection is that military tries to own certain words such as THE service. It is A service tothe country not THE service to the country

7:49 am

hego

I'm on a pc but I have no trouble with itunes

7:49 am

TheLegend

own the word? thats a little silly

7:49 am

jmcnrick

politicians and bureacrats and teachers and police officers all provide service to the country

7:49 am

mom2han8

I don't think iTunes is the problem... the problem is the user of iTunes, LOL.

7:50 am

Wolvie

ah. well I got tired of PC issues, so went with mac - it's been fun. :-)

7:50 am

TheLegend

its merely a convention....generally accepted

7:50 am

jmcnrick

then why does the military insist on calling itself THE service

7:50 am

TheLegend

why not?

7:50 am

Wolvie

hello legend

7:50 am

Trifioso

my BIL works in computer service, and they often use the acronym "PEBKAC" which stands for "problem exists between keyboard and chair"

7:50 am

TheLegend

its a silly thing to take umbrage over

7:50 am

jmcnrick

I believe it should not be accepted and that is my point -- it demeans all the other people who give service to this country

7:51 am

Vicuna

If it is conventional to assume that the military is the only service, then perhaps it's time we change the convention.

7:51 am

Wolvie

hey vic

7:51 am

jmcnrick

ty vic my point exactly

7:51 am

TheLegend

demeans?! good grief....

7:51 am

Wolvie

i agree vic

7:51 am

Judi

Good morning, all!

7:51 am

Hello, all!

7:51 am

hi judi

7:51 am

mom2han8

Yes Trif... that is where the problem is occurring here.

7:51 am

hego

hi judi and vicuna

7:52 am

Wolvie

i don't think it demeans anyone else

7:52 am

periwinkle

morning all, not liking this grid

7:52 am

jmcnrick

you may think so the but language is a very important part of culture and the way it thinks

7:52 am

Wolvie

morning peri

7:52 am

Trifioso

maybe "demeans' isn't the exact right word - maybe "excludes" would be less incendiary?

7:52 am

TheLegend

its NOT the military that does it! lol....

7:52 am

Trifioso

I think it is the military that does it, legend

7:52 am

Wolvie

wasn't thinking incendiary thoughts. ;-0

7:52 am

TheLegend

excludes?!?

7:53 am

jmcnrick

the military does self describe as THE service

7:53 am

mom2han8

OK.. I am off to screw up my iPod... LOL!

7:53 am

jmcnrick

hi peri

7:53 am

Trifioso

yes -- using THE service to only refer to the military does exclude all the other people who serve our country in different ways.

7:53 am

Wolvie

they have to have a hook to get volunteers ya know. some folks will naturally have that calling or ambition, but a lot don't. :-)

7:53 am

hego

Good luck mom!

7:53 am

Wolvie

have fun Mom!!

7:53 am

Trifioso

good luck mom!

7:53 am

TheLegend

man you dont know much about the military

7:53 am

Vicuna

TheLegend

TheLegend

28 years active duty here...

7:55 am

Trifioso

stidmama

good thinking, Enomis!

1:58 pm

Atalante

2:00 pm

sciencegeek

Wow, lil monkey, just looked at the flicker photos from the babble party! How fun! Wish I were closer!

2:01 pm

sciencegeek

The next time I know I will be in the area, I shall make an announcement - maybe we could all meet!

2:01 pm

lil*monkey

oh the party at dorens house? yes me too! i think they were meeting about the same time you , Tom & I were slurping soup at the vietnamese place

2:01 pm

dcseain

we're very much looking forward to it, lil*

2:01 pm

dcseain

and that would be lovely, science

2:01 pm

lil*monkey

oh sorry, not you sciencegeek, I meant the same time dcsein and I were meeting

2:01 pm

lil*monkey

sorry got confused there

2:01 pm

dcseain

yes, they met at the same time we were having ur sopu

2:02 pm

lil*monkey

geek, if you live in Texas, you can arrange a meet-up with kje. she lives in Texad

2:02 pm

dcseain

kje is a lot of fun

2:03 pm

sciencegeek

kje lives in Dallas I am in Houston!

2:04 pm

lynxxx

How far apart are they?

2:04 pm

lil*monkey

what's that, like 2 hours apart?

2:04 pm

sciencegeek

now more like 5

2:05 pm

sciencegeek

texas is only the size of a country

2:05 pm

lil*monkey

maybe you could meet in the middle, and each drive 2 hours

2:05 pm

dcseain

so you meet in Buffalo, that's about halfway

2:05 pm

lil*monkey

there's a Buffalo in Texas?

2:05 pm

sciencegeek

right buffalo we could hang out at the sonic!

2:06 pm

dcseain

yes, monkey

2:06 pm

sciencegeek

there is nothing in buffalo

2:06 pm

dcseain

i figured :)

2:06 pm

sciencegeek

We have Buffalo, Milano, Paris, etc

2:07 pm

sciencegeek

all small towns

2:08 pm

lil*monkey

dcseain, is there much flooding near you right now?

2:08 pm

dcseain

no, just rain so far

2:09 pm

dcseain

and i took flood-prone roads to Vienna last night. wet, but the runs aren't very high

2:09 pm

lil*monkey

It's terrible here... several bridges are closed, tunnels are closed, everything's flooded. We were let go early at work today, and no work tomorrow

2:10 pm

dcseain

wow

2:10 pm

dcseain

seeing as you're closer to the source of rain we're getting, and you're lower, that makes sense.

2:10 pm

lil*monkey

chesapeake bay bridge tunnel closed

2:10 pm

dcseain

no tunnels, not much can happen down there

2:10 pm

lynxxx

Is that normal for ths time of year LilM? sounds bad

2:10 pm

lil*monkey

that storm is swirling over us and it's stalled

2:11 pm

lil*monkey

they are predicting a lot of gloom and doom, esp for high tide today at 5

2:11 pm

stidmama

(((((((EVERYONE))))))) lunchtime, break for me, I HATE WRITING PAPERS!

2:11 pm

lil*monkey

no not normal Lynxx, it's a nor'easter ( a big storm like a hurricane)

2:11 pm

stidmama

wait wait -- they CLOSED the BAY TUNNEL??? *gasp* that sounds really scary. I have been through it zillions of times.

2:12 pm

lil*monkey

they showed pics of the beach eroding at Nags Head, and they showed a house on stilts collapsing into the waves

2:12 pm

lynxxx

nasty! keep safe (and dry) LilM

2:12 pm

stidmama

Mother used to hate driving through the tunnel.

2:12 pm

lil*monkey

yes stid, we're having a bad nor'easter

2:12 pm

lynxxx

Hi Stid

2:12 pm

stidmama

oh gee monkey -- are you okay? I know seain's further inland.

2:12 pm

stidmama

I wonder if my bestest friend is okay back there. she's a teacher, though, probably in school.

2:13 pm

sciencegeek

hi stid!

2:13 pm

lil*monkey

I"m OK, I live right on the York River in Yorktown and it's flooding here but I'm high and dry, thank goodness

2:13 pm

dcseain

i'm also 3 hours further north, stid

2:13 pm

stidmama

so, down to 28 earlier, about 15 minutes to play right now.

2:13 pm

lil*monkey

no, stid, all school is cancelled today and tomorrow

2:13 pm

sciencegeek

Well we always get the horrible hurricanes and tropical storms. flooding is our first name here

2:14 pm

stidmama

I am glad for that Monkey, we lived in Newport News. I remember some bad storms as a child (water flooding the streets) but nothing like what you are describing so close to home.

2:14 pm

stidmama

hello science!

2:14 pm

stidmama

okay, so she'll be at home. Maybe I will call her in a bit and just check on them.

2:14 pm

lil*monkey

stid, I live in Yorktown village... just a little north of Newport News, closer to Williamsburg.

2:15 pm

stidmama

ah, okay, I know where you are then. (((hugs))) hope the trees stay put, that was our biggest worry in storms, the tall white oaks in our neighborhood.

2:16 pm

MPittore

hello stidmama...15 left for me...too nasty to go out and play today so guess I'll just babble...

2:16 pm

stidmama

hello MPittore.

2:16 pm

lil*monkey

yes me too! already many tree branches on the road when I left work... they let us go at 10:30

2:16 pm

stidmama

glad you are at least at home, I would find it hard to work in weather such as you are having.

2:17 pm

lil*monkey

i have 1 qu4, 2 qu5 and 1 qu6... what am I missing?

2:17 pm

stidmama

actually, having trouble working with a sunny day (unusual) ... I HATE writing papers.

2:17 pm

lynxxx

another qu5 (just found it myself)

2:17 pm

lil*monkey

thanks lynxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

2:18 pm

stidmama

go lynxxx! go monkey!

2:18 pm

MPittore

stid...I don't have those worris anymore...retired from NIH when I was 55 6 years ago...how did I ever find time to work--LOL-- life is good! *happy face*

2:18 pm

stidmama

thanks for the qu4...

2:19 pm

MPittore

typo should have said worries...

2:19 pm

sciencegeek

what is the topic of your paper, stid?

2:19 pm

stidmama

happy retirement, MPittore! i have about 30 years before I retire... unless I flunk out of this program. (considers ditching paper and flunking out)

2:20 pm

stidmama

It's a ghastly synthesis paper, the full details of which were not given until a week ago tomorrow, and last weekend with one thing and another I got very little done. trying to write a MAJOR term paper in three days is not fun (and I don't have the health to stay up late and still function days)

2:20 pm

lil*monkey

whew, finding that other qu5 has strained my lil*monkey brain cells

2:20 pm

BabbleRabble

O Nobly Born, O you of glorious origins, remember your radiant true nature, the essence of mind. Trust it. Return to it. It is home.
—The Tibetan Book of the Dead

2:20 pm

MPittore

no go go go stidmama...lay down that foundation so you can retire early like I did...it was worth the work on the front end!

2:21 pm

sciencegeek

not fun and not easily accomplished!

2:21 pm

stidmama

I won't retire early -- will be 75 when I retire! at least.

2:21 pm

stidmama

(((BR))) you say the sweetest things! *grin*

2:21 pm

stidmama

you said it, science!

2:21 pm

sciencegeek

if you like writing, however, it may flow easily. sometimes i work best under pressure (procrastinator here)

2:21 pm

BabbleRabble

Hello, stid

2:23 pm

stidmama

it flows, but I also need to support the statements with data from the assigned readings. the notes I took are inadequate to the task. previous writing that was supposed to be easily modified to suit this task came back with little feedback and is useless. *grumble*

2:23 pm

sciencegeek

i also believe you will not be short for words!

2:23 pm

sciencegeek

what class is this for???

2:23 pm

stidmama

it's the master's in teaching program. we don't have "classes" it's an integrated full-time thing.

2:24 pm

stidmama

there. under 20. listing.

2:25 pm

BabbleRabble

so, when you get you get your MA, you cannot say Class of 2010?

2:25 pm

MPittore

stid keep the faith oh mighty young one...news flash for you-- 75 is the new 55 *grinning ear to ear*

2:26 pm

sciencegeek

oh yes i had in friend who did that also. too much work for me!

2:26 pm

stidmama

nope. cohort of 2011 -- it's a two-year program.

2:26 pm

stidmama

on the other hand, if I survive, I will be better prepared to teach than many beginning teachers. I hope.

2:27 pm

stidmama

c's complete!

2:27 pm

lynxxx

Bye everyone

2:27 pm

stidmama

(((lynxxx))) have a lovely day

2:27 pm

BabbleRabble

hello, lyn

2:27 pm

stidmama

yes MPittore, I am counting on having a few golden years when I retire to sit and do nothing at all.

2:29 pm

dcseain

be well, lyn

2:29 pm

sciencegeek

two year program here also. i just thought it was way too much work for not enough salary increase. don't think that it would impact my teaching much at all

2:29 pm

dcseain

stid, i'm sure you'll do smashingly

2:30 pm

stidmama

we spend about one of the years actually in classrooms, science -- student teaching and observing.

2:30 pm

sciencegeek

it was also an expensive program....5k

2:30 pm

stidmama

there's the alarm. down to ten. will take a nap, write some more and back around 6 your time monkey and seain

2:30 pm

sciencegeek

that's the good side of it - anything practical is useful and meaningful. i did not learn anything in my "teacher" classes

2:30 pm

stidmama

yes, VERY expensive, science. but the extra 15 G or so a year will make up for it.

2:31 pm

sciencegeek

they dont pay us 15k for taking the course. only 3k/yr

2:31 pm

MPittore

stid...well I'm not much on sitting and drooling here I find myself running most every day, we travel, play, what ever we want...it is a blast...

2:31 pm

stidmama

thanks for the support, friends. this is "one of those days" for me, and i really appreciate it.

2:31 pm

sciencegeek

go stid go!

2:32 pm

stidmama

LOL MPittore! you and jill and flosey and my mother ... seems people who babble never really stop. (I am doomed). LOL see you-all later! *poof*

2:35 pm

MPittore

later stid...go rest those thinking cells and refresh your mind and get that paper off your shoulders just start writing...proofing and editing will take care of any garbage...sometimes you just have to jump into the middle and churn out something...you can do just a little confidence will build you up! Sunshine on you stid!

2:42 pm

the exact quote about change is:You are less interested changing the world than in dealing with things as they are. Unlike those who spend all their time trying to solve problems, you prefer to zero in on things that work and stick with them.
