12:16 am

Alley Cat SF

Good evening. Did anyone elses clues just change from Sunday's clues to Mondays clues? Basically 1 day behind yesterday and today?

12:16 am

westford

I remember him coming home from the hospital

12:16 am

stidmama

hm. that sorta implies you are older than 29 west...

12:16 am

stidmama

no clues yesterday, alley, clues fresh for today

12:16 am

jillibus

Oh, so there WERE Lickety clues for yesterday!

12:17 am

gremlinn

It's been late three days in a row.

12:17 am

westford

just a bit when I turned 50 I started counting backwards so I'm younger than he is now

12:17 am

stidmama

hey vashon! we're probably doing a babble meet up here in Western Washington in August....

12:17 am

dalmatian5

for some reason the clues are loading a day behind. I

12:17 am

jillibus

oh groan -- I hope Lickety realises what day it is now!

12:17 am

gapeach1066@yaho

Stid, I did refresh.....same grid and clues as yesterday. Maybe later.

12:18 am

stidmama

it's because lickety can't load the clues immediately at flip. He needs to get the new grid first... and then load the clues for us when he can take a break from work...

12:18 am

justafreep

I must depart for awhile. see ya'll later!

12:18 am

stidmama

12:18 am

Alley Cat SF

So my clues just changed to be ac5/12, ac4/5, ac5/14. and there are no ac's. is that what everyone has?

12:22 am

westford

it's hard I know

12:23 am

vashongin

she just turned 18 and she wants to go somewhere where she doesn't have to take a ferry to get somewhere

12:23 am

stidmama

LOL well illinois should be safe there...

12:23 am

jillibus

well, vash -- had no idea you were so close!

12:24 am

Pinikula

12:27 am

Bugsaw

I would love it if more from BC could come, but I only have a Yaris so 3 is all I can carry in my vehicle. I could take a fourth, but we would not be able to bring a change of clothes

kimmtoats, what's your question?

12:40 am

kimmtoats

the tiles directly under the puzzle, why are there 2 of some letters? like there are 2 L's

12:40 am

yes ADHD, they do, but not usually this time of year! LOL

12:40 am

jillibus

got the righthand I

12:41 am

Pinikula

kimm...the letters below the grid mimic the location of the letters in the grid

12:41 am

jillibus

kimm, there are 2 Ls in the grid

12:41 am

stidmama

good question. some words can only be made starting in one or the other place.

12:41 am

stidmama

if a word could come from either, the protocol is to count it from the uppermost and left-most tile

12:41 am

Pinikula

the number behind the / = the number of words from that tile

12:42 am

VolleymomDee

here are all the i's: in 5, 4, 6, 8, 6, 7, 5, 5, 4, 6, 6, 7

TheLegend

thanks grem

1:17 am

gremlinn

I copy/paste my word list into my text editor. Then I search the regular expression "Look Up Word ([a-z]{2})[a-z]* (\d+) (\d+)" and replace with "\01 \02/\03"

1:18 am

gremlinn

That cuts out all the unnecessary stuff and extracts the first two letters ([a-z]{2}) and the letters/points after

1:18 am

ADHDWordLover

lickety's is a day off again

1:19 am

rururocks

wow

1:19 am

VolleymomDee

wow grem would never have known how to do that; always had to type them when I did it..

1:19 am

VolleymomDee

what is a text editor? Is it in word?

1:19 am

gremlinn

I had to learn regular expressions for rapid text editing for the game writing I do.

1:19 am

jillibus

oh, grem! YAY for the sparklers and for posting a list!

1:19 am

gremlinn

A text editor is like Word but without the fancy formatting.

1:20 am

VolleymomDee

amazing

1:20 am

gremlinn

Not all text editors do regular expressions though.

1:20 am

ADHDWordLover

well thanks grem... we 'preciate the list

1:20 am

jillibus

grem -- would you be albl
e to help Lickety make an Expert for Macs?

1:20 am

Jellen

1:21 am

gremlinn

I write online text adventure games - they are at http://www.rinkworks.com/adventure

How do I add Grem as a friend?

2:40 am

Andree

hi fm

2:41 am

FMitch

Go to the My Friends tab above the chat and then when he is online 'friend' him

2:41 am

FMitch

Evening Andree

2:41 am

flosey

only way I know is when he is online here, go to Who's Online and click on "add to friends" then he will be in your "My Friends"

2:42 am

FMitch

sorry I meant Whos online, flosey is mo4 on the ball than I :)

2:42 am

flosey

2:43 am

flosey

lol, FM was thanking you for your comments on my icon

2:43 am

FMitch

lol Douglas

2:44 am

flosey

yes Andree, but if you list us in "My Friends" you can always know what friends are online

2:44 am

Andree

can't we do that by going to who's on line?

2:45 am

gran

How many words today please

2:45 am

Douglas

I concur that this grid isn't particularly nasty, FMitch, although some words for tiles with few words must be a little odd

2:45 am

Give me a mo rumple and I will put it in my profile, I copied it from Gremlin earlier.

2:48 am

Douglas

Wondering whether I should press on to NBT, or sleep...well, that was easy! Good night all!

night douglas

2:48 am

Andree

bye douglas

2:48 am

jillibus

andree, if you want to see something about a friend who is NOT online, you can if he/she is in your My Friends. For example, gremlin and jellen posted a list in their profiles. If they are not online and you hae them in your MY Friends, you can get the lists. Also, Sprite keeps the list of icon themes so if yo have her in your My Friends and she's not online you can access her list that way.

2:49 am

anike

You can also access someones profile from the rankings

2:49 am

Andree

thx jilli

2:49 am

KatieMcG

half way must be off to do so** work, see you all later x

2:49 am

FMitch

OK list added to my profile.

Hi jilli,wonderful icon and story and a touching anniversary too *hugs*

2:49 am

Andree

yes anike thats how i do it

2:50 am

flosey

Jellen is online in Who's Online, you can copy the list from her bio

2:50 am

FMitch

Bye Katie, 10 mo4 mins and I will be doing the same.

2:50 am

jillibus

Thanks, FM -- it was a great icon suggestion

2:51 am

jillibus

It's a lot easier to access profiles from My Friends than from the rankings

2:52 am

flosey

Beautiful work FM, in your icon

Hello Haz

Thanks flosey, it took ages as the stitches are very small and the house is about 10" across.

Good morning Haz!

2:53 am

jillibus

I agree with flosey, FM, about your wonderful cross stitch!

2:53 am

jillibus

Hi Haz :)

They were a kind of co-production, though.

2:58 am

FMitch

True

3:01 am

FMitch

Did you not also carve a Great Danes head jilli?

3:02 am

jillibus

Andree

3:03 am

jillibus

3:03 am

FMitch

I have pics of most of my embroideries but not on the PC and never got round to scanning them in.

3:04 am

Andree

i have just realised that jilli, I don't follow the themes, its all i can do to change my icon once in a while

3:05 am

flosey

I had never thought of taking pics of different things I made, was thinking of using the dress I made for hubby's graduation (l962)

3:05 am

jillibus

I need my bed -- 61 left. Tomorrow is going to be busy -- lots of errands to do and it's supposed to rain a lot :(

3:12 am

3:12 am

flosey

my mother did too Haz, even when she ate alone, it was always nice china and silver, with a pretty tablecloth

3:12 am

Haz1558

And there I was thinking it was going to be a website for needle and thread phobics to console with each other.

3:13 am

flosey

there you go Haz, there are so many ways to be creative

3:13 am

Haz1558

It's one of the highlights for me when I'm having people to eat is to set the table. It's kind of like setting the scene.

3:13 am

Haz1558

Bye FM.

3:13 am

herinfernallady

herinfernallady

I had to share Haz for your future icons

3:18 am

Haz1558

I wonder if some of them will regret their choices in future?

3:21 am

rubyfoo

hello, for any of you who have been following the saga of Max, the vet just left and although it is sarcoptic mange, it is very treatable. She gave him 3 shots, proclaimed Ruby mange-free, said I wouldn't catch it, and everything would be alright! Phew!

3:22 am

Haz1558

There's a relief!

3:22 am

flosey

happy for you ruby, must be quite a relief for all concerned

3:22 am

herinfernallady

O poor pup

3:23 am

rubyfoo

I was crazed, couldn't eat or sleep and was afraid he'd have to be put down. You have all been very supportive and I thank you. Will try to act less crazy in future!

3:23 am

Andree

glad to hear that ruby

3:24 am

herinfernallady

My friend is threatening me with a chav brides maids dress

3:24 am

Haz1558

Have any of the so4/4 bits become infected?

3:25 am

rubyfoo

did anybody see the movie "28 Dresses" with Katherine Heigl? It's about bridesmaids' outfits, sounds like it would have been perfect for this chat!

3:25 am

Haz1558

All you need to remember, ruby, is to not imagine what might be wrong, but to get a diagnosis more quickly. Lecture over.

3:25 am

rubyfoo

lecture received, haz, but I can't stop smiling!

3:26 am

rubyfoo

but we all diagnosed it correctly and google and ata knew the name of the drug!

3:28 am

Haz1558

At least it didn't get as far as one case my husband dealt with years ago. A man brought a very sorry looking dog to the surgery, told husband that he had been trying to treat it himself but had failed miserably. He said his wife had threatened dire consequences if he didn't get it sorted out, so he was bringing the dog to get put down. His marriage was at stake, he said. Off he went, husband did the deed, half an hour later the phone rang. It was the man 'Sure you haven't put that dog down?' It turned out that the wife had meant him to get the dog treated, he had misunderstood and thought she wanted it 'sorted out once and for all' as being to get the dog put down.

3:29 am

rubyfoo

Bad story, haz, my husband was so nasty to me this AM about the dog, that I thought he'd want me put down! LOL

3:30 am

Haz1558

Hopefully the treatment will get Max sorted out quickly, he'll certainly be a lot more comfortable.

3:31 am

rubyfoo

yes, if he stops biting himself, all will improve quickly

3:31 am

rubyfoo

this vet is the nicest and Max was very calm

3:32 am

Haz1558

It'll be the itch that's driving him to it, once that's removed it should settle down.

3:33 am

rubyfoo

he seems to feel better when he's out in the snow; maybe the mites get sleepy in the cold

3:33 am

Haz1558

The cold will be soothing, almost anaesthetising to the skin.

3:33 am

herinfernallady

Gosh Haz that is terrible about the dog. Maybe the wife needed a husband

3:35 am

Haz1558

It's a long time ago since it happened, it's just a shame that the two of them didn't actually sort out what they meant by what they said.

3:37 am

herinfernallady

Didn't your husband have the euthanasia forms?

3:39 am

herinfernallady

Ruby play fetch with snowballs with the pup that is fun for entertainment

3:39 am

Haz1558

The man willingly signed anything he needed to - as far as he was concerned his wife wanted the dog out of the house because he had been trying to treat a skin condition for months without success. What his wife really wanted was for him to take it to the vet and get it treated.

3:42 am

herinfernallady

Oh I have the best dog story to tell

3:47 am

herinfernallady

is anyone here or did everyone sod off

3:47 am

Haz1558

I'm here, waiting for the story.

My friend has 3 big dogs. 2 are security trained. One is a Belguim Shepherd the Other a Douge. The pizza delivery guy turned the handle on the screen door. BOth her dogs are trained to stalk then pin or stare then back. Thank goodness the door was locked or the pizza guy would be pinned in a corner. Stupid man trying to open a closed door

My (?) doctor just called. I don't know if she's mine or not. She called to check up on me. She said she was worried that I left the hospital too soon. She wanted me to stay and the surgeon said I could go home. So, what would you do? I went home. Now it seems that I have offended the doctors good judgement and I get the feeling she's saying see ya.

9:10 am

Haz1558

Haz, the clues this week seem to be one day off. I wonder if Lickety is aware.

9:13 am

SeaSpray

yes it is Unea

9:13 am

bichon

I've heard that Lickety's daughter is sick in the hospital with pneumonia

9:13 am

Uneaixoise

hego, lickety's daughter is in hospital with pneumonia

9:13 am

hego

Oh my!

9:14 am

Haz1558

There's something happening with LIckety which I can't quite explain. He seems to do the clues, but the timing is off by one day, I'm not sure whether there's been a change in daylight saving hours in Australia or what. I know his daughter is ill, but he's still been doing the clues, just one day out.

9:15 am

hego

right!

9:15 am

Haz1558

So, naturally, because his daughter isn't well, nobody wants to be bothering him about it. We soldier on.

9:15 am

LuvWordGames

yes Haz, I noticed that the date change unlike when he's unable to do them normally

9:15 am

hego

Also right

9:16 am

Haz1558

There's a logical explanation somewhere, meanwhile we rely on the combined efforts of flip-time babblers.

9:17 am

Aloyisius

oops.. phone, brb

10:25 am

rubyfoo

10:25 am

SeaSpray

you cross stitch FM? I love cross stitching, have been for 30+ years

10:25 am

Vicuna

Lovely cross-stitch, FM. Lovely table setting, Haz. Ata, why don't you have a creation, hm???

10:25 am

Haz1558

It's amazing and beautiful all at the same time.

10:25 am

CiociaJudy

I think we're talking snow in feet here today not inches

10:25 am

Atalante

Silverlcaw is my creation :D

10:25 am

FMitch

I was just about to ask the same thing Vi.

10:25 am

Haz1558

She's nursing her ill husband.

10:26 am

SeaSpray

just looked at your profile, it is beautiful!

10:26 am

rubyfoo

aaargh, husbands!!!

10:26 am

Vicuna

Nonsense, young lady.

10:26 am

rururocks

I know where that house is..

10:26 am

Haz1558

Sorry! You can't mention singing when Vi is here, nor husbands when ruby's here...

10:26 am

FMitch

Seaspray I started embroidery when I was about 9 so that makes it about 40 years (god I feel old now) :)

10:26 am

Vicuna

You can't fool me. When Ata's husband is "ill" the most she does is scoff at him!

10:26 am

oodleberry

ok I'm jealous

10:26 am

CiociaJudy

LOVE counted cross-stitch but never seem to have the time to sit and do it. will take it up again when I retire. LOL

I now do free hand and machine embroidery after doing a course a few years ago - much more freedom, dye fabrics and then stich etc etc. Not that I have had much time in the last couple of years.

10:29 am

Vicuna

A mere technicality, Ata. But at least you have creations on your flicker photos, so I guess I'll cut you some slack.

10:29 am

CiociaJudy

WOW Mitch. that is a gorgeous cross stitch

10:29 am

Haz1558

FMitch

Oh Ata's creations are wonderful, I have 2 hanging on my walls

10:31 am

Vicuna

10:32 am

FMitch

*grin* Vi

Ciocia, just almost spilt my tea laughing at your icon.

10:32 am

Where in MA, car? I'll be leaving soon to meet kids for early release from school.

10:44 am

Judi

25" from last storm. Expecting another 12 - 18" this storm. I just shoveled the driveway a bit. Barely made a dent.

10:44 am

FMitch

Good heavens just checked the figures and we have gone up from about 120 on line to 177, no wonder the chat is suddenly full

10:44 am

car.eeyore

well vic...I could tell you but then you might stalk me! No just kidding! Lovely Marshfield!

oodleberry

ok mid US is gitting snow and we are not.. hmmmm NOT FAIR *POOUTS IN THE CORNER*

10:45 am

car.eeyore

I did not, however, support the decision for early release/no school today. I think it was totally unneccessary.

10:45 am

CiociaJudy

Oh, Judi. That's a lot of snow to deal with. Thankfully, we only had about 8 inches last Saturday but it is a blizzard out there right now

10:46 am

Vicuna

I won't bother going to Marshfield to stalk you, car. Too far. I'm in Needham.

10:46 am

oodleberry

10:46 am

oodleberry

10:46 am

Vicuna

I agree. The kids had a field trip scheduled today, too, and it had to be cancelled. Much disappointment.

10:46 am

Dorens

that could be somewhat irritating

2:13 pm

hego

Don't cry Oodle, there, there.

2:13 pm

jmcnrick

i thought that was incite!

2:13 pm

Uneaixoise

me to teenage boy: " on behalf of the planet, I would like to say that I am horrified!"

2:14 pm

Scrabbler

Good for you, Une

2:14 pm

hurshy

incite, instigate, etc etc

2:14 pm

oodleberry

I hope they charged him for every plastic bag

2:14 pm

hego

what did he say?

2:14 pm

oodleberry

you get charged here for them

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

that is an argument in favor of the dc law that makes you pay 5 cents for each plastic bag

2:14 pm

Uneaixoise

i wish that were the case here, oodle

2:14 pm

Dorens

youwould think he could have just gotten cartons or crates

2:14 pm

hego

I can't imagine the reason for that.

2:15 pm

Uneaixoise

but why do you need plastic jugs of milk in plastic bags in the first place????

2:15 pm

hego

for all the bags, I mean.

2:15 pm

oodleberry

well it is not working in the maritimes... people are complaining about it

2:15 pm

Dorens

ok., need help with decision here... at least ten inches already, the birds are iin a frenzy at the feeder, and my cat Lucy is pestering me to let her out. what say you?

2:15 pm

jmcnrick

easier to carry une

2:15 pm

Uneaixoise

me (again) to teenage boy: does Starbucks at least recycle plastic jugs? answer . . . "no"

2:15 pm

torgone

Seriously .. the jugs HAVE handles

2:15 pm

hurshy

does lucy have a litterbox?

2:15 pm

oodleberry

I don't mind I never use a plastic sack... I used my back pack

2:15 pm

Uneaixoise

the jugs have handles!!

2:15 pm

hego

AAhhh

2:15 pm

jmcnrick

let the cat out she wont stay long enough to eat the birds

2:16 pm

Scrabbler

Say no to Lucy

2:16 pm

jmcnrick

but you can carry 5 bags in one hand

2:16 pm

hurshy

aren't 25 gallons of milk too heavy to carry for one person in any case?

2:16 pm

oodleberry

but I bet you can carry more in plastic bags than by the hangle of the jugs

2:16 pm

Uneaixoise

i always have a canvas bag full of canvas bags in hand!

2:16 pm

oodleberry

great minds jmc

2:16 pm

Uneaixoise

aaaaccckkkk!!! don't make excuses for him!!

2:16 pm

jmcnrick

I have nylon bags in my purse so I can make an impulse stop at the store

2:16 pm

Scrabbler

I love my canvas bags for shopping.

2:17 pm

Uneaixoise

hursh, he was loading them into his car -- probably a big SUV!!!

2:17 pm

oodleberry

but that is why he did

2:17 pm

hego

Me too

2:17 pm

jmcnrick

I am just saying une that there may be some logic not that he was right

2:17 pm

Dorens

yes lucy has her pick of two litter boxes, but the call of the wild runs deep within her

2:17 pm

KrisE

I made nylon bags for people's purses for Christmas

2:17 pm

hurshy

but you'd have to make multiple trips between the checkout line and the car either way, right?

2:17 pm

hego

All cats, Dorens

2:17 pm

Dorens

i have these lovely string bags that are so tiny but hold enormous emounts

2:17 pm

jmcnrick

that of god bla-dee-bla-dee-bla

2:17 pm

JBV

good afternoon, babblers

2:17 pm

jmcnrick

two trips versus 5 trips

2:18 pm

hurshy

my cats do not feel the call of the wild. they just feel the call of the warm snuggly places

2:18 pm

jmcnrick

hi jbv

2:18 pm

Scrabbler

Hi JBV

hego

Hi jbv

2:18 pm

Mishakal

2:18 pm

KrisE

hi jbv

2:18 pm

hego

I think you could do it in one with a shopping cart.

2:18 pm

jmcnrick

I may as well go back to be beating up ru since when I am nice every one snaps at me! lol

2:18 pm

Uneaixoise

he wasn't carrying them to his car in the the bags -- he loaded them into 2 grocery carts, then rolled them out to the parking lot . . .

2:18 pm

Mishakal

she'll open our bedroom door at night to sleep in front of the heater

2:18 pm

JBV

hope everyone is warm and safe - the view from my window was beautiful this morning - white, white, white, fluffy snow - now i'm starting to worry....

2:19 pm

jmcnrick

no shopping cart when you unload

2:19 pm

Scrabbler

I just took a hot shower and am sipping hot tea now. Been snowing all day and plowman just cleaned out my driveway

2:19 pm

hego

Oh my, Une

2:19 pm

JBV

branches bending low with heavy snow, power lines also drooping very low

2:19 pm

jmcnrick

I have a blanker on my radiator for my car

2:19 pm

jmcnrick

*cat

2:19 pm

jmcnrick

my car has to take care of itself

2:19 pm

hego

Just what you like Scrabs

2:19 pm

Mishakal

we let the dog run outside a bit with all the snow on the ground. she ran out and then ran back in

2:19 pm

oodleberry

where are you JBV?

2:19 pm

hego

Poor Saab

2:20 pm

Mishakal

no wonder she didnt like it, she's a 5-pound chihuahua :D

2:20 pm

hurshy

i mean we have plowing and shoveling going on right outside the window... are my cats curiously perched looking at this? no, one is sleeping on my foot, one is sleeping in my arm. i don't know where the third is but i bet she's sleeping!

2:20 pm

jmcnrick

2:20 pm

2:21 pm

JBV

no 6 - females?

2:21 pm

hego

Good old Saab. :-)

2:21 pm

Scrabbler

Yep, that worked, JBV

2:21 pm

hego

yes jbv

2:21 pm

jmcnrick

now the retreat center has asked me if they can borrow the saab to pick people up at the airport

2:22 pm

hurshy

considering what happened in RI two winters ago, the school closings make sense to me

2:22 pm

JBV

we already had Fri and Mon as scheduled holidays, so if schools are closed tomorrow, I will end up with 6 days off!!

2:22 pm

jmcnrick

ooo great clue jbv! ty

2:22 pm

hego

My car is totally pampered. Attached garage.

2:22 pm

JBV

what happened hursh?

2:22 pm

jmcnrick

attached garage = multi-millionaire in DC

2:23 pm

Don't live in the city jmc

2:23 pm

hego

2:23 pm

oodleberry

going to fire my monkeys and I just gave them a bunch of bananas

2:23 pm

hurshy

a storm that came on faster and heavier than expected. when they finally dismissed the schools, everyone working had decided it was about time to get home also, and the roads were totally clogged, so the plows couldn't get through. many people abandoned their cars, and some children were stuck on buses until like 11:30 at night.

2:23 pm

jmcnrick

no but I do -- did you see my icon the last few days with my saab buried in snow?

2:24 pm

Scrabbler

Where is SG? Are you ok, SG?

2:24 pm

Mishakal

2:24 pm

jmcnrick

I remember that hursh it was quite the scandal

2:24 pm

hego

yes, I sure did.

2:24 pm

JBV

I remember a day like that years ago, we kept waiting for an early dismissal that never came, then took our lives in our hands, driving thru horrible road conditions

2:25 pm

hego

I remember that here jbv

2:25 pm

hurshy

i was lucky, as my route home was treacherous but uncrowded. i just went slow and took twice as long, but other than that didn't have any trouble.

Thanks vicuna

2:52 pm

72 Temple Owl

eHarmony wasn't too harmonious for you?

KrisE

Sue, i clued...

2:53 pm

Soodlebum

And, before any other Babble singletons put their spoke in, I have already asked Brookie to keep any eligible brothers or friends for me....

2:53 pm

jmcnrick

I ditched eharmony because when i answered that religion was important in my life they kept hooking me up with born-agains

2:53 pm

Brookie

Match.com is better for females in that there is a greater percentage of males 70/30%, where it's the inverse with eHarmony.

2:53 pm

72 Temple Owl

JE ME TOO!

2:53 pm

Vicuna

Maybe eHarmony and Match.com should just throw their pools together.

2:54 pm

Brookie

Great idea!

2:54 pm

jmcnrick

like the only people who are serious about religion are born again christians????

2:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

it's as if fundamentalism was the only way to be religious

2:54 pm

I had to play with the parameters quite a bit to get matches that seemed well-suited.

hi Trif

3:03 pm

Brookie

Honestly, jmc, I put up not the greatest photos of myself on eHarmony. I wanted men to communicate with me because of what I wrote in my profile.

3:03 pm

Vicuna

Hello, Trifioso.

3:03 pm

you can look in the manilla thing that holds paper

I think that's smart, Brookie. Best to eliminate up front all the ni6's who care only about looks.

3:05 pm

speedfreak

thanks would not have thought that was one word but this is babble

3:05 pm

Trifioso

kids got off early today due to the storm, and if tertiare catches me babbling there will be hell toupee!

3:05 pm

Vicuna

Huh, how about that early release, Trifioso? *bitter bitter!*

3:06 pm

Trifioso

yes, it was a bit silly, given that all we have had so far is rain and a bit of snow....getting worse now, though

3:06 pm

jmcnrick

oh trif kick tertiare in the pants and say "I am the grown up and I can play games if I want to. So there " :-P

3:06 pm

speedfreak

Vi as a teacher I loved early release today since it also counted as a full day and no make up

3:07 pm

Trifioso

one of my students at work stayed home, so I only had one kid to work with, and thus got off early also. Mind, I only get paid when I work....

3:07 pm

jmcnrick

nice for you speed

3:07 pm

Trifioso

roger, jmc, will try that! :)

3:07 pm

Vicuna

lol speedfreak. As a teacher I hated (unplanned) early release because it totally messed up my lesson plans!

3:07 pm

jmcnrick

don't forget to stick out your tongue or it looses the whole effectr

3:07 pm

speedfreak

do feel bad for the superintendant since no matter how they call it parents are going to be mad

they let us know yesterday before we left so that was nice...however if they have a delayed opening tomorrow they told us we still need to report our regular time as long as it is safe!!!! If the kids have a 2 hr delay it is stupid for us to sit there

3:14 pm

Sciencegeek - Are you still there?

3:14 pm

Trifioso

I definitely vote for a Boston meet up!

3:15 pm

Trifioso

soodle, you can fly over and bunk at my house!

3:15 pm

Vicuna

Now how come none of you ever come to my Open Studios when I invite all MA Babblers? lol

3:15 pm

speedfreak

I would definitely head to Boston and meet with everyone

3:16 pm

Trifioso

vicuna, I did have your last one on my calendar, but something happened, and now I forget what it was....

3:16 pm

jmcnrick

Can I come too??

3:16 pm

Trifioso

I think we should have a meet up on a beach somewhere, speed, like White Horse, or something, and then everyone could come and play!

3:16 pm

Vicuna

lol, no problem, Trifioso, I'm just being obnoxious!

3:16 pm

I love Boston -- I spent a lot of time there when my husband was in Mass General

Vicuna

*imagines a clown car house overflowing with Babblers*

3:18 pm

speedfreak

with all of us on the south shore we could fit all the babblers in our houses what fun

3:18 pm

Soodlebum

In fact, when (note the WHEN, not if) I win the lottery - all babblers will be invited to a big Babble-In!!

3:19 pm

jmcnrick

you are killing me in that game science

3:19 pm

speedfreak

I would love to win also soodle but never seem to buy the ticket

3:20 pm

Trifioso

Oh, Speed. If the Lottery people gave me back all the money I have given them, I would be able to go Iceland with TO, and half a dozen other places :(

3:21 pm

Come to meeting with me and you can write off that trip, too. ;)

3:21 pm

jmcnrick

i usually manage to play one word a day in each of my games but I am playing fuqua, science, dorens, pini and a babbler i can remember who it

3:22 pm

jmcnrick

oh there is no where in the U.S. that I can't find a strong business reason to visit vic!

3:22 pm

jmcnrick

the lottery is the tax on the mathematically challanged

3:23 pm

Trifioso

I was grooving on that funny farm game for a while, and the other two versions of it as well, but I got completely stuck, and haven't been able to move on, so I sort of gave up. The only way around it is to cheat by looking up other people's games, and what is fun about that?

3:23 pm

Trifioso

man, it is REALLY getting windy here now! If I should disappear suddenly, trust that the electricity has blown

3:23 pm

jmcnrick

you can find a walk through that will give you a word or two at a time and get going again trif
