2:28 am
jillibus

and then words you HAVE heard, like perp, are not accepted
2:28 am
jillibus

hi rolin
2:28 am
rolin

hey jilli
2:29 am
flosey

like to4/4 - when you get around to it?
2:29 am
gremlinn

I read an article dated May 2009 that the English language was approaching one million "words", projected for a month after that point
2:30 am
rolin

depends on your definition of 'words' really doesnt it...lol
2:30 am
flosey

I think so
2:31 am
gremlinn

yeah, the compilers were including stuff like "defriend" from Facebook users - it had to have been used something like 25,000 times on social networks
2:31 am
jillibus

well, yes -- perp being only part of a word, really, but then refs is ok, as are several others like that
2:33 am
gremlinn

'According to the Global Language Monitor, the English language this week crossed a threshold as the "one millionth word" entered the lexicon. That word? "Web 2.0."

Global Language Monitor has a methodology by which it measures "new" words entering into English. Though "Web 2.0" has been around for years, GLM's method of counting requires "a minimum of 25,000 citations with the necessary breadth of geographic distribution and depth of citations." '
2:33 am
gremlinn

so, I wasn't quite right before, but I remembered the number at least
2:34 am
gremlinn

and apparently words can have spaces and numbers and decimals inside them now
2:34 am
jillibus

So there must be some strange ones included, grem
2:34 am
rolin

rubbish
2:35 am
gremlinn

that was from June 2009
2:35 am
rolin

surely the definition of a 'word' is that it is a unit of letters to convey meaning
2:35 am
jillibus

yes, rolin
2:35 am
flosey

like infiltr8 ?
2:35 am
jillibus

good 1 flosey

Thanks for the edumacation!

I suppose that list contains all the txt wds 2
2:36 am
gremlinn

I'll bet they added "lol" as well.
2:37 am
rolin

tho i have to say... oneuse of the development of the text language is that there is now a comedy club in lindon called the 'roffle club'...i ,love it..

3:09 am
jillibus

You should be a real whiz after all this practice!
3:09 am
flosey

I haven't played scrabble in over 25 years
3:09 am
flosey

they probably wont accept half of the words we see here
3:09 am
jillibus

well, you now know so many weird words
3:10 am
flosey

guess we have to play by someone's rules, I didn't play last year
3:10 am

which state
3:13 am
BiancaM

california
3:13 am
jillibus

well, your guys were superb too, and it's so great that they're all good friends, which shone forth from the podium and backstage
3:13 am
BiancaM

yeah it's really nice to see that
3:14 am
BiancaM

the poor russians though. They got no hugs
3:14 am
jillibus

I thought the Russians were a mess and the bronze should have gone to the other US team
3:14 am
rubyfoo

but they have bad attitudes, I think
3:14 am
BiancaM

really?
3:14 am
BiancaM

I was surprised the russians got the bronze also
3:15 am
rubyfoo

and they snipe at winners....Plushenko and the quads!
3:15 am

3:15 am

bye ruby
3:16 am
flosey

bye for now ruby
3:16 am
jillibus

well, I guess their costumes put me off, but their skating was uninspired too, I thought, and not so brilliant technically either, according to the commentators
3:16 am
flosey

me too jilli, they were ugly
3:17 am
jillibus

bye ruby -- bear up, old girl!
3:17 am
flosey

I don't care to see frills and flimsy stuff on the men
3:17 am
BiancaM

the costumes weren't good. It made them seem naive.
3:18 am
jillibus

it was the long greasy hair too, and the glum expression
3:18 am
flosey

I thought they looked disappointed
3:19 am
jillibus

they probably thought they were entitled to the gold
3:19 am
BiancaM

I guess I liked that they got the bronze just for nostalgia's sake.
3:19 am
BiancaM

Since they've always won a metal since it started.
3:21 am
BiancaM

yikes cold war nostalgia
3:22 am
jillibus

yikes, 16 pe words!
3:22 am

sorry. bit random. lol
3:52 am
Atalante

shame griotte isn't allowed
3:53 am
Sally-catlover

Hadn't seen that one. Yes, strange since there are so many furrin words usually.
3:54 am
Atalante

exactly
3:55 am
Sally-catlover

And I always try gire, because I think I have Lewis Carroll in mind (the correct spelling doesn't work, either!)
3:55 am
Atalante

I also do too

Hi ruby. Why the question marks? Am I not really here? :-)

4:06 am
BiancaM

gnite all
4:06 am
rubyfoo

I only read part of beowulf and that was almost 50 yrs ago!! old is me!
4:06 am
Sally-catlover

Night Bianca. See you again.
4:06 am
rubyfoo

no, I was just happy to see you and was afraid I was too late
4:07 am
Sally-catlover

Perhaps I should read it again (Beowulf). Like it says on the T-shirt - So many books, so little time.
4:07 am
Atalante

it's an amazing book. read Seamus Heaney's translation, it's beautiful
4:07 am
Sally-catlover

Well, hi again ruby! Have not been on much for last few days because have had a house guest so Babble had to take a back seat :-(
4:08 am
rubyfoo

I didn't know there was a translation; that's more like it
4:08 am
Sally-catlover

Fairly sure it's not on my book shelf. Will check.
4:08 am
Atalante

lots of translations, Heaney's is the newest, and most poetic
4:08 am
rubyfoo

as a kid, I found the middle English (?) too difficult
4:09 am
Atalante

old English. oh yes, the original is unreadable unless you know Old English
4:10 am
rubyfoo

old, sorry, didn't remembver which
4:10 am
Sally-catlover

We did Chaucer in the original for (I think) A Level, and now I can't bear it in modern English!
4:10 am
rubyfoo

lol, sally
4:10 am
Atalante

middle English is Chaucer etc
4:11 am
Sally-catlover

Yes I know Ata, sorry didn't mean to confuse.
4:11 am
rubyfoo

I feel like I'm 100 yrs old, university was such a long time ago
4:12 am
Atalante

sorry, that got a bit lagged, was meant to be after saying Beowulf was OE!
4:13 am
Sally-catlover

Now why on earth is "gritter" not allowed? They have been all around us in this snowy weather.
4:13 am
rubyfoo

and why not iter?
4:14 am
Sally-catlover

However, it led me to a gr 8 :-)

One follows the other presumably.

Getting coffeee. brb
4:25 am

Back. Pours coffee for all. I see you've been talking about me while I was gone!
4:25 am
rubyfoo

milk, no sugar, please!
4:25 am
Atalante

can I have tea instead?
4:26 am
Sally-catlover

Sure, Ata. What kind would you prefer?
4:27 am
Atalante

whatever :D i'm just horribly allergic to coffee!
4:28 am
Sally-catlover

A tragedy. Mind you, I do try to restrict mine since I started to get palpitations from drinking so much. Went cold turkey and had withdrawal symptoms :-(. Now I just have a pot of good coffee in the morning and then no more.
4:29 am
rubyfoo

I have one double expresso (thank you, George) in the AM, but that's all. That allergy would be a tragedy for me!
4:29 am
Atalante

horrid stuff :D
4:29 am
rubyfoo

it kick-starts my day. See you after lunch (out, TG)!

I love freesias, everything about them except that they don't last long enough.
4:48 am
Atalante

my mum's fav flower too. except she's not picky about colour!
4:49 am
Haz1558

I think I love the white because they just look so pure and perfect. And the smell of any freesia is just lovely.
4:49 am

Whenever my Father bought my Mother flowers he would buy me freesias.

That'll be Anniebrook on one of her less subtle days.

They are quite common here, once you have them they are there forever and they seem to naturalise and go back to creamy white
4:53 am

lucky you!
4:53 am
FMitch

How lovely lynxxx
4:53 am
lynxxx

(not chinooks)
4:53 am

LOL, had looked away from the chog and thought you were talking about Chinooks, lynxxx!
4:53 am
FMitch

Oh Sally I did too for a second
4:54 am
lynxxx

We don't have Chinooks - only Elvis's and I am happy to say that this Summer we haven't even needed those!
4:54 am
FMitch

*imagines flock of naturalising chinooks flying around*
4:54 am
lynxxx

Sorry - Elvises!
4:55 am

or maybe that should be Elvii?
4:55 am
Sally-catlover

Elvises? (Visions of Elvis Presleys tearing around the sky)
4:55 am
Atalante

yep!
4:55 am
Haz1558

You've restored my faith in you, lynxx, your adoption was beginning to look shaky.
4:56 am

I know - I am sooo embarassed
4:56 am
Haz1558

But that's good. If you'd been shamefaced about it, or worse, not known what you'd done - disaster.
4:57 am
lynxxx

The Elvis are v. large helicopter which are able to take up vast volumes of water and drop on bushfires
4:57 am
Atalante

finally watching the travelling weddings prog. how do they move in those dresses!
4:58 am
Haz1558

The answer is before your eyes, Ata. They don't so much walk as shuffle painfully.
4:58 am
Atalante

27 stone dressses!
4:59 am
Haz1558

Someday they'll incorporate a scooter underneath the dress. Or a motorised skateboard.
4:59 am
lynxxx

travelling weddings?
4:59 am
Atalante

now there's a niche market needing to be filled
4:59 am
FMitch

or one of those mobility scooters perhaps
5:00 am
Haz1558

Weddings of Irish travellers, except that they're static (the travellers)
5:00 am
lynxxx

OK
5:00 am
Atalante

with 27 stone dresses
5:00 am
Haz1558

They like to have over the top wedding dresses. Not just extravagent, but extraordinary and not in a good way.
5:00 am
Atalante

do they cut the dresses up to make all of the curtains / duvet covers / tea towels / everything for their house?
5:01 am
FMitch

and 20' trains (on the dresses) not the railway kind.
5:01 am
Haz1558

That's a good point, Ata, I've no idea what they do once they get rid of the dress.
5:02 am
Haz1558

20 foot trains, not 20 trains, although you might give them ideas. 'Patty had 1 20 foot train, begorrah, I've have 20 on mine!'
5:02 am
Haz1558

If they had a little train track laid from the door of the church to the altar, and put the bride on a little train, would that help?
5:03 am
Atalante

that's a scary thought
5:03 am
Atalante

like in Wallace adn gromit!
5:03 am
Haz1558

Exactly!
5:03 am
FMitch

It was an interesting programme I must say.
5:03 am
Sally-catlover

Perhaps they should employ train drivers as bridesmaids.
5:04 am
FMitch

LOL Sally
5:04 am
Haz1558

Ata, you need to find pictorial evidence of said dresses so that lynxxx knows what we're talking about. Imagination is not enough, you couldn't come up with those designs.
5:05 am
Haz1558

Oh yes, the bridesmaids are another integral part of the wedding experience.
5:05 am
Haz1558

They don't wear as big dresses as the bride, but they go for dayglo colours.
5:05 am
lynxxx

!!!just ready up on the marriages - apparantly 200,000 pounds is a not uncommon price paid for a groom!. Travelling is a profitable occupation it seems

the link I posted isn't form the programme but is still on the theme.

Now that's confusing. They are referring to Irish Travellers but these are within the USA

Irish travellers do come originally from Ireland but have in many cases settled in England. However, they prefer to keep tightly knit within their own culture.

Morning all! I wonder if there's a list somewhere. Lickety's is yesterdays
5:09 am

Now I can see where Jordan gets it from - after seeing FMs clip
5:09 am
Haz1558

We have some who have been living here for over 30 years, but they retain a southern Irish accent.
5:09 am

Gremlin posted a list in his profile Jayk

Now that's a Mother Of The Bride outfit !

Amazing, the outfits, aren't they?
5:12 am

BRB door bell
5:13 am
Atalante

the blue / green ones are the most spectacular
5:13 am
Haz1558

Yes, the harlequin ones on the programme?
5:14 am
Atalante

yes ...
5:14 am
lynxxx

Actually Ata, your ones were the most tasteful of them all
5:14 am
Atalante

oh dear LOL
5:16 am
lynxxx

Did you look at Haz's Ata?
5:17 am
Atalante

oh yes! lovely peach!
5:18 am
Atalante

they do make jordan look somewhat restrained
5:19 am
Haz1558

When do you think we'll get Jordan's renewal of vows?
5:20 am
Atalante

when she gets another child
5:20 am
Haz1558

I mean, a wedding's not a wedding without renewing the vows five minutes later. Not that they mean a word of it either time.
5:21 am
Atalante

but they need a new baby to complete the photos
5:22 am
Haz1558

They'd get more money if they renewed vows, had the baby, had a christening, renewed vows one last time before the divorce.
5:22 am
FMitch

Back again
5:22 am
Atalante

good point
5:23 am
Haz1558

Not that Jordan is interested in money.
5:23 am

5:26 am
FMitch

Hi Andree, what did you see?
5:26 am
Andree

saw "shutter island" and "valentines day"
5:26 am
FMitch

and your verdict on them is?
5:27 am
lynxxx

I was just reading a train of comments on the wedding pictures, some of who are the Irish Travellers - are they semi illiterate or just putting it on - and who are gorgie?
5:27 am
lynxxx

Hi Andree
5:27 am
Andree

valentines day was a light chick flick
5:28 am
Haz1558

lynxxx, I can only speak for the travellers here, the older generation are not literate at all, the younger generation do go to school but have difficulties because they don't have an older generation to help them with their reading etc. It probably stems from the times when they did move around and schooling was interrupted.
5:28 am
Andree

shutter island was a really excellent powerful film
5:29 am
FMitch

quite a contrast between the films then Andree
5:30 am
Andree

very much so
5:31 am
Andree

valentines day was the sort that was fun but if you miss it at the movies you would still enjoy the dvd sometime
5:32 am
Atalante

lol love that - this one girl has a fitted wedding dress - oh, such normality - but then a 20 foot train
5:32 am
lynxxx

Co-incidence, daughter just walked in the door from movies and had seen Shutter Island. Liked it except for Leonardo, thought someone else would have been better
5:33 am
Andree

how strange, i thought he was fantastic and i'm not a fan
5:34 am
Andree

5:38 am
Atalante

5:39 am
Andree

5:39 am
Atalante

5:40 am
Haz1558

Only for about 10 minutes when they were very young.
5:40 am
Atalante

I guess they are the same as the dutch. Malcontent, eager for some kind of scape goat and happy when somebody gives it to them. Especially when it is somebody who 'has the guts' to say fascistical and racistical things.

6:58 am

kje, it depends on the payees of the checks

I snack, but right now it is celery and laughing cow

I was not a fan of yesterdays grid, for some reason I was unable to gt it and the words were not difficult. I used the list and finally finished.

Yes...we probably should steer the conversation elsewhere!
9:01 am

But now I am getting anxious Car because you know the exact words that I will hear later
9:02 am

9:04 am
car.eeyore

other phantoms: heretic, hectic
9:04 am
Scrabbler

I see those now too, Car.
9:05 am
mkg

there are scarves that are pre tied and you just slip them on. they are pretied scarves. maybe it must be with the d. but i assumed that as a very you could pretie something.
9:05 am

Oh, I see now, mkg.
9:06 am
Scrabbler

Alas, so many phantoms to mess with our eyes today.
9:06 am
car.eeyore

Just to annoy you Lawyer! Tee hee!
9:07 am

isnt pitter a hyphenated word as in pitter-patter
9:07 am
car.eeyore

I am still giving this game a chance. Though, I don't fully understand the babble clues. Just getting a handle on the scoring. I also don't understand why "pitter" is not accepted! lol

Isn't pitter-patter hyphenated? and I think that's a petrie dish.
10:34 am
Deeha

At last the voice of reason!!
10:34 am
helensgirlkid

But basically, if it isn't in Enable, it isn't a word as far as Dr. God is concerned. And the compiler(s) of Enable have,, shall we say, a few quirks.
10:34 am
mongie

helens ... I think you are right. Thx.
10:35 am

Anyway dont talk to me about pitter patter it has pitter pattered outside my window for WEEKS!! Fed up with grey cloud and rain

I have no clue as to what is required for a name, like Tesla, to turn into tesla for Dr. Gdd's chosen dictionarist.
10:37 am

Eva when is the wedding?
10:37 am
helensgirlkid

Wonderful Eva - get a binding contract at once!
10:37 am

No not snow!! But I always think if ever I was to top myself it would be in February. Roll on Spring!!
10:37 am
EvaNadine

wedding is in october, SeaSpray.
10:37 am

what date?
10:37 am

What about all the archaic Scots words I dont suppose even a Scotsman would use them nowadays!!

for instance, Deeha???
10:39 am
Haz1558

I'll stand up for the Scots words, we use lots regularly. Thole and Thrawn and Gulpins and Hallions.
10:39 am
Flask1

nice one, Haz!!
10:39 am
helensgirlkid

Thanks to Dr. God, I got a clue in a mystery (requiring knowledge of "feu") way earlier than I could have done before babbling. So ther - it is useful!
10:39 am
EvaNadine

definitely wanna get a contract signed soon.
this is an acquaintance who i have actually worked with before, but i forgot she does the occasional wedding. turns out, shes trying to build up her portfolio + will be a FULL day for a mere $600!
she doesnt do the prints, but gives you a release to print as many of whatever you want -- and she will retouch any + all of the digital images for you too!
10:39 am
Deeha

Dont be so rude Haz!!!
10:39 am
bichon

And, the Scots words are always in crossword puzzles, handy to know
10:39 am
helensgirlkid

Gulpins?
10:39 am
Haz1558

And scunner. You can be a really fed up Scots when your're scunnered.
10:40 am
Haz1558

Gulpins and hallions are stupid/idiotic oafish men.
10:40 am

The Clues Page is not working?

Look gremlinn up in Rankings
10:42 am
EvaNadine

SeaSpray, from what ive found, even THAT is a bargain.
i was floored when she said that, and even asked her if she accidentally left off a zero!

turns out, she is only doing weddings for friends + people she knows...lucky me. :)
10:42 am
Haz1558

Go to rankings, do control F and type gremlinn (who is male, by the way), it will highlight his name, click on it and you get the profile.

my parents have a set amount of money to put toward the wedding, and most (if not all) of that will be put toward the caterer. fiance's family paid the venue rental fee, so not sure if they will put in any more.
everything else is all on us!

i want it nice, but not at the expense of being in debt + wedding-poor!

11:16 am
redturtlehead

Canada is doing well in the Olympics. I know they say they are failing the "Own the podium" but, I think they have really done excellently.
11:17 am
bojazz

i'm cheering for Canada - 'cept when they are against the US
11:17 am
flosey

don't know who made that quote red, everyone I know is so very, very proud of our athletes - first time on home soil for gold
11:17 am
flosey

totally acceptable bojazz - that's loyalty
11:18 am
bojazz

adds excitement when the "home team" does well
11:18 am
flosey

sure does bo
11:18 am
redturtlehead

I think there has been a push for the Canadians withthe "Own the Podium" campaign, and somehow they expected more medals, but frankly, I see so many doing so well.
11:19 am
flosey

as I said red, I have no idea who is being so possessive - that is just plain greed, and takes away from the ones who are winning
11:19 am
redturtlehead

I agree.
11:20 am
redturtlehead

SOmetimes I think people just need something to say.
11:20 am
bojazz

except for some of the Russians, most seem to be team spirited for the games - they are quite the athletes
11:21 am

ANy clue for the I in the right hand upper corner...?
11:21 am
dcseain

relating to the ir in the eye, red - ir6
11:22 am

thanks DC.
11:22 am
flosey

in the past, there have been some competitions that have not been judged with total honesty, I think that has been corrected and all are being won fair and square
11:22 am
bojazz

ir6/21 - ir + theatre cr***
11:22 am
bojazz

too slow :(
11:23 am
bojazz

it's a crime when politics get involved in the judging
11:23 am
redturtlehead

For me, it has been an enjoyable olympics.
11:24 am
bojazz

think NBC could be much better in their job
11:24 am
redturtlehead

NPR did a story on nbc saying that it has failed to keep up with the way we consume media...
11:24 am
flosey

good to hear red, thanks, I haven't been over but daughter has been doing a lot of mingling with the crowds and says it is like Mardi Gras and a wonderful time
11:24 am
redturtlehead

I did enjoy the story on the snowboarder who crashed...how sad that was.
11:25 am
bojazz

tragic - i'm sure we haven't heard the end of that
11:25 am
flosey

that was the luge, wasn't it red, a trial run before the games opened
11:26 am
redturtlehead

No no Kevin Pearce, he crashed prior to Olympics and has had a terrible Brain injury.
11:26 am
redturtlehead

the Luge situation was also not good.
11:26 am
flosey

oh, sorry, yes, you're right
11:28 am
redturtlehead

I was really saddened to hear it, but I think he knew the risks of the half pipe..
11:28 am
bojazz

was not aware of that incident
11:28 am
flosey

right red, there are some sports I just don't watch
11:29 am
bojazz

what those young people do in the half pipe is AMAZING
11:30 am
bojazz

and the injury factor is way up there
11:30 am
redturtlehead

Bo, I dont think too many people were, as not too many follow half pipe. It was part of NBC's coverage, and I thought very nciely done. I really hope that he can learn to walk again.
11:30 am
redturtlehead

it is really fun to watch.
11:31 am
flosey

indeed red, hope he is able to recover
11:31 am
bojazz

Shawn White - is he from this planet? what a competitor
11:32 am
dcseain

Shaun White
11:32 am
flosey

getting away from Olympics, like the bungee jumping thing, daughter called me AFTER she tried it - and said once was enough
11:32 am
bojazz

oooops, sorry Shaun
11:33 am
redturtlehead

yes, and the injured man, Kevin actually beat Shaun White twice....
11:33 am
redturtlehead

Yes, Flosey your daughter is nuts!!!!
11:34 am

there are times I agree with you there red, she's a bit of a dare devil

I so not find ironing relaxing. I find nothing about homemaking/cleaning, etc. relaxing. but I do like it when everything is neat and clean
1:34 pm

Oh, Nancy I thnk it is the years of doing it and the burns acquired that make it a task one grows to enjoy.

I will never grow to enjoy ironing. thinking of shipping all my wrinkled clothes out to you, stidgmere :)

It was stressful at first, then it clicks, and is very relaxing in its precision, Nancy
1:35 pm

Well, I agree housework is always there. I do not take in additional ironing but will not comment when you wear wrinkled clothes.
1:36 pm

1:42 pm

ironing obviously not high on my priority list
1:42 pm

LOL good
1:43 pm

LOL Eva! He's a little shy. He also claims he doesn't like word games. He prefers to hang over my shoulder and be infuriating by pointing out all the words I've missed ;)
1:43 pm
Nancy Boy

Good Engough!! I really did laugh out loud.
1:43 pm

theres a word game here??
1:44 pm

1:47 pm
dcseain

it started on frozen rivers in Canada
1:47 pm
Atalante

I think so!
1:48 pm
Atalante

it just *looks* odd. brooms and brushing
1:49 pm
Nancy Boy

that's the one! I don't understand the aim of the game, really. I assume they're very skilled but they may all just be laughing at us.
1:50 pm
Atalante

they all look very very serious about it
1:50 pm
EvaNadine

i think they just shuffle along constantly thinking "must clean the ice, must clean the ice, must clean the ice..."
1:50 pm
Atalante

it must be very scientific though
1:51 pm
dcseain

well, the broomers determine the path of the stone, and to a limited extent, how far it travels
1:51 pm
Nancy Boy

LOL Eva. Maybe the babblers that find housework relaxing would enjoy this sport...
1:51 pm
Atalante

so how much does the actual "throw" of the stone matter?
1:51 pm
Good Enough

guess you can count me out
1:51 pm
dcseain

it determines overall trajectory and approximate distance
1:52 pm
Atalante

hmmmm
1:52 pm

the UK women's curling captain is *gorgeous*. random intellectual comment!
1:54 pm

1:54 pm

3:53 pm

¡ay, dios condénelo! i have a head cold
3:53 pm
Nancy Boy

LOL Seain! I've been working on getting their discography, but doing it backwards...the DVD I'm watching now is so old, Stipe still has a big, curly ponytail...
3:54 pm
dcseain

LOL, i remember that.
3:55 pm
Nancy Boy

so, since you were so shocked (lol) to discover you were a fan, what other music are you into? :)
3:56 pm
dcseain

after REM, i own a lot of Madredeus, Live, Pink Martini, Alabina, Aterciopelados, Grapner, Bach, and Wagner
3:56 pm
dcseain

oh, and Mary Jane Lemond
3:59 pm
Nancy Boy

lots of artists I've never heard of - have I missed something big, or are you into the obscure?
4:00 pm
dcseain

Grapner, Bach, and Wager are classiclal composers. Pink Martini is a wonderful 12-piece plus vocalist out of Seatle, which i discovered by accident. Live has several well-known hits, but not a huge following.
4:00 pm

mary jane lemond does scots music, out of Nova Scotia

Madredeus is a Fado group out of Lisbon
4:01 pm
Nancy Boy

Oh no, well, I knew of the composers of course :) But I'm always looking for new music, so if you're keen to recommend the bands, then I'll give them all a listen
4:01 pm

ski cross is 4 skiers racing at the same time over big hill sort of things, like snowboard cross
6:28 pm

I always have my eye out for figure skating, which, so far has been great! I am keeping my fingers crossed for Kim Yuna
6:28 pm

this course had 2 halfpipes, some of the smaller women had a hard time getting over them due to their light weight...

how old is your Mom, bichon?
6:35 pm
bichon

The US did well to get a gold in the men and a silver in Dance. I'm content. American women used to be on top, but Asian skaters have seemed to have taken over
6:35 pm

6:36 pm

Oh I wish it were here.
6:37 pm

Hi red.
6:39 pm
hurshy

i wish the skating commentators wouldn't tell us that people have already performed this routine at other competitions. it would be nicer if i could maintain the mental fiction that it's as new to everyone as it is to me.
6:39 pm
redturtlehead

bichon did you see my question>
6:40 pm
redturtlehead

I kind of forgot that and was surprised to see the ice dancers doing the same routienes from the nationals or worlds competitons...
6:41 pm
redturtlehead

6:41 pm

even if i HAD seen them before, i wouldn't be able to tell, most likely. i mean unless it was REALLY unusual.

oh ye, red, lol!

Skaters generally get one program per year. It takes lots of time to learn a program and get a full grasp on the choreography
6:41 pm

hi bugs!

bugsaw's pic looks like lettuce
6:41 pm
Jacula

I'm pleased to report a virtually clean bill of health after my ECG tests and treadmill tests at the hospital earlier. These were ordered in the wake of my Mum being diagnosed with angina the other week. I was also relieved to have beat Mum's 6 minutes on the treadmill, since she's 75 and I'm 52!:-)
6:41 pm
hurshy

good for you jac
6:42 pm

done at last!
6:42 pm

Good job Jac.
6:42 pm

6:42 pm

a skater will switch a program if the new one isn't working, but that's usually not the case
6:42 pm
redturtlehead

good job jacula! that treadmill test is nice until they crank up the incline!
6:42 pm

I told my son they pronounced me 'fit as a fiddle' and he looked me up and down and said, 'funny shaped fiddle'. 'Humph!' I said. 'Okay, fit as a cello.'
6:43 pm
Bugsaw

Sorry jilli, but you are correct. I was away for the weekend and didn't play. Then last night I went to bed early without looking up what it was supposed to be today. I like your icon tho!
6:44 pm

Well done, hursh.

6:45 pm
jillibus

Well, bugs, unfortunately I've only seen one Pixar movie, and that was Finding Nemo, on TV. I rarely go to the movies -- spend too much time babbling and playing bridge.
6:45 pm

triglycerides is what they're called here
6:47 pm

jilli - that's probably it. I was typing the word from memory.
6:47 pm
Bugsaw

I didn't even know what pixars were and was too tired to find out!
6:47 pm
jillibus

thanks, red -- I felt that way after aour drought!
6:48 pm
redturtlehead

bugs My icon is just a green heron photo I took. I should get with the program occasionally.
6:48 pm
Jacula

Bug - I've looked at your icon again and it's 'definitely' a lettuce trapped in a sweet jar.:-)
6:48 pm
Bugsaw

I just watched a poor man from the Netherlands, who has never lost this race since 2007, set a record and then be disqualified because his coach told him to go in the wrong lane. What heartbreak!
6:48 pm
jillibus

Was it a fun weekend, bugs?
6:49 pm
Jacula

Oh, poor man! My son's g/f from Netherlands, who is staying here at the moment, will not be pleased.
6:49 pm
jillibus

I saw that, bugs -- terrible!
6:50 pm
Bugsaw

I did like the icon Jac, but I won't pay that kind of money for one bead!
6:50 pm
Jacula

It does seem rather expensive, Bug.
6:51 pm

when these things happen it is so upsetting.... the DQing.
6:51 pm

I had a wonderful weekend in Victoria jilli. The weather was lovely and I enjoyed celebrating a 13th birthday, the expected birth of a baby, lots of grandkids and my friend's new home.
6:52 pm
Jacula

How's everyone getting on with the grid? The stats are in my profile if needed. My Other Half called me in earlier to say that people needed a list and were looking to either myself or Jilli to provide it.
6:52 pm
redturtlehead

39 left for me, very slow going....but I dont usually use the list until now...
6:52 pm
jillibus

Glad you have the list in your profile, jac -- mine is too cluttered with other stuff
6:53 pm
Jacula

red - well, it's there if you need it.
6:53 pm

Bugs, congrats on a new birth!!!
6:53 pm
redturtlehead

thanks jacs
6:54 pm
jillibus

bugs, the weather has been wonderful indeed, but it seems it's back to wet normal now. Snowing madly on Cypress, though :)
6:55 pm
Jacula

We've had snow again here today, but it's stopped snowing for the moment and has mostly melted. The Scottish Highlands are going to cop for most of it this week, which probably means my poor cousin will be trapped at home again. She's getting fed up with it now!
6:56 pm
Jacula

jilli - I still keep reading your description of the compiler of Enable. I giggle every time.

6:58 pm
redturtlehead

can I get help with the H words. I have the part of the foot and the plant...
7:00 pm
Jacula

he6/21 - almost the surname of James, a famous Yorkshire vet 'All Creatures Great & Small'. Or try he + 4-letter word for public disorder.
7:00 pm
bichon

Think of the vet from All Creatures Great and Small
7:00 pm
redturtlehead

TY, is there another?
7:00 pm
Jacula

he7/32 - a beneficiary of a will, more often seen with 'in' as a prefix?
7:01 pm
redturtlehead

oooh I always miss that one thanks jac! and thanks bichon and jac
7:01 pm
jillibus

he7 usually starts with in -- one who gets property from the deceased
7:01 pm
redturtlehead

thanks Jilli. my H is gray! yaya!
7:01 pm
jillibus

wtg red -- jac's clue was more succinct ;)
7:02 pm
Jacula

Phew! I thought for a moment there that I'd typed 'pubic disorder'. That'd be one in need of waxing, I guess?:-D
7:02 pm
redturtlehead

I did that the other day...
7:02 pm
Jacula

What, typed pubic instead of public or got waxed??
7:02 pm
jillibus

back in a bit...
7:03 pm

See you soon, jilli.
7:03 pm
redturtlehead

I try not to share such details on the chat.
7:03 pm
Jacula

LOL red, I thought it must be that or we'd have heard the screams.
7:05 pm
Jacula

It's a common typing error, red, along with 'Dead Sir' instead of 'Dear Sir'.
7:05 pm
MPittore

I'm back...had to go pick up my Toyota avalon got all the recalls fixed...then we went to 1/2 price pizza night...yummy! 86 left

7:06 pm
MPittore

I'm thinking I might have to look at the clues...getting harder for me...
7:06 pm
Jacula

red - indeed it is! Back in the times of typewriters without correcting ribbon, if you didn't have skill with a typewriter eraser you had to type the whole letter again - as the ladies who worked for me frequently found out.
7:07 pm
Jacula

Hi MPit.
7:08 pm
MPittore

Red...several models have been recalled for things...you can go online and check yours...we are taking my inlaes in for them tomorrow...they are in their eighties but have lots of health issues so we help them with most things...trying to keep them indipendant as long as possible...not easy...
7:08 pm
MPittore

Hi Jac...
7:08 pm
redturtlehead

My car has been recalled, but I have to wait for a letter from the dealer for a time to come for repairs.
7:08 pm
MPittore

oops *inlaws
7:08 pm
Jacula

Luckily for them, if they hadn't ham-fistedly taken most of the surface off the paper trying to erase the 'd', I could usually sort it out for them. All they had to do then was align the paper properly again and type in the 'r'. I often found it best to do that, too. *sighs*
7:09 pm
redturtlehead

i have a 2009 Prius- I think.
7:09 pm
