1:37 am

ty west. Salem - He came pre-named.
1:37 am

he opened the hood and there it was building a nice little nest
1:37 am

1:38 am

so glad you got them flosey; glad to help. By the way, I kept your email address... I might even say, "Hi!" occasionally.
1:38 am

too funny, right in the car engine!
1:38 am

well, he chased it out and got rid of the sticks and straw
1:38 am
VolleymomDee

at 244... and slooooowing down here
1:38 am

good thing he could see it, west. I had a mouse make a nest in the air system -- totally invisible, but not unsmellable, yk.
1:39 am

if he hadn't been retrieving the trash cans ...
1:39 am

a few months ago he was driving and the car just about stopped dead in the road..took it to the dealer and all the wires had been chewed

1:40 am

they were able to repair it to the tune of $450 if they had had to replace would have cost $1700
1:41 am
westford

here's my question how do we keep them out of there?
1:42 am
VolleymomDee

wonder if you could use dcon... or something used for other rodents
1:42 am
jillibus

get a dog to chase them away?
1:42 am
westford

the cats do a pretty good job when they're out there
1:42 am
VolleymomDee

jili's idea might be kinder
1:43 am
westford

I know lots of critters don't like moth balls but that might not be good for us
1:43 am
VolleymomDee

I hate rodents... sorry... and the squirrels around here tear up the birdfeeders; eat all the food; wreck the gardens, flowers, etc...
1:43 am
westford

d-con might be good dee
1:44 am
jillibus

as long as the cats don't get into it
1:44 am
VolleymomDee

good question jili...don't know if they do or not
1:44 am
westford

if we cleaned out the garage we could put the car in there
1:44 am
VolleymomDee

good luck with that
1:45 am
westford

I don't mind them when they mind their own business but when they cost us money I'm not happy
1:45 am
VolleymomDee

agreed
1:45 am
VolleymomDee

my hubby won't clean his garage, but he rearranges my freezer and my cupboards... grrr
1:46 am
westford

we have all the summer furniture in there only a one car garage
1:46 am
westford

we need a shed
1:47 am
flosey

lol west, I've been telling hubby we need a barn or at least a shed, for past 15 years
1:47 am
westford

or I could get busy and clean the basement and we could store the stuff down there
1:47 am
VolleymomDee

that would make things tight; my hubby bought our daughter covers for her furniture from a catalog... Preferred Living or Frontgate, and she leaves it outside
1:47 am
westford

you could have a barn raising flosey we'll all come help
1:47 am
flosey

as a result, no room in the garage for cars
1:48 am
westford

and you have pretty harsh winters don't you dee?
1:48 am
VolleymomDee

so far the furniture looks great (2nd year of being outside)
1:48 am

wouldn't that be fun, west, what a great idea

2:34 am
VolleymomDee

missing one... I have da 6/33 x 4; da 6/39... but for the life of me cannot find the da 6/21...
2:34 am
jwr

just dropping by to note that Enable and Babble seem to not be as interactive as I thought. Enable says -- this is yesterday's grid -- that PERP and PERPS are acceptable, but Babble said not. Is this kind of exception unusual and if not, is there anything to be done?
2:35 am
jillibus

not unusual, nothing to be done
2:35 am
lynxxx

da6.21 the guy that moves quickly
2:35 am
lynxxx

Hello all
2:35 am
westford

and finishes grids quickly too
2:35 am
VolleymomDee

duh and bless you
2:35 am
westford

hello lyn
2:35 am
jillibus

it's morewords that says perp is ok, enable says no -- but there may be a newer version of enable that Dr_God doesn't use
2:36 am
VolleymomDee

again I was looking at the wrong d
2:36 am
lynxxx

There is I think because Lickety uses a more recent version
2:37 am
jillibus

jwr, scroll down my profile to see a list of such words
2:37 am
jwr

thanks jilli -- The good thing is that Babble's pleasures outweigh the occasional frustrations (all the words you check on those question marks that have no definitions). And you're right about MoreWords -- again, thanx Jilli -- that was so. MoreWords is my last resort and it generally does the trick.
2:38 am
grannyrose

dee, 4 x da6/33? have 6/39, and 6/21. that means i'm missing a da6/33, does it start the same as the others?
2:38 am
jillibus

some of the no def words can be found via google
2:38 am
jwr

I'll take a look at your list. I should have known one of you would have it. Gotta go back to work for now, though. Have fun with the little one, all.
2:39 am
VolleymomDee

Considering the girl dancing was deemed to ugly
4:38 am
sprite

sounds awful. Glad she is showing them
4:40 am
herinfernallady

It was the Pasodoble. They are not ballroom dancers and the girl Renee has always been rejected for roles because she was too plan. She does have an odd sort of face but then again who cares she is brilliant
4:40 am
sprite

I bet she is beautiful in her own way when she dances. People can be so cruel.
4:41 am
herinfernallady

She is but she doesn't have it in herself. She is like a wilted flower. She needs love.
4:42 am

Hi lynxxx, sprite, bojazz! Mr. Aussie has spent a week with me - we had a wonderful time! Now he's on the 2nd leg of his trip (Kansas City) and will be returning to see me for a few final days this weekend.
5:46 am
Brookie

He's a very nice man.
5:46 am

oh that sounds exciting! Glad you spent a good time together.
5:46 am
lynxxx

I am so pleased he didn't let us down!
5:47 am
lynxxx

and what did Dad say?
5:47 am
Brookie

Even if it doesn't work out romantically, we will definitely be very close friends.
5:47 am
Brookie

Oh, and my parents LOVED him!
5:47 am

wooot even better
5:48 am

lol, he must have been nice
5:48 am

How are you all doing?
5:48 am

He's an absolute sweetheart.
5:48 am
herinfernallady

Brookie a friend like that can sometimes work out better
5:48 am
Brookie

Hi herin, and I agree.
5:49 am
sprite

pretty good here, all things considered. Am trying to make this an active day and so far am succeeding.
5:49 am
Brookie

Excellent, sprite! What do you have planned for the day?
5:49 am
sprite

true, and if you will be a romantically involved couple, being able to be good friends too will make your relation so much more wonderful and stable.
5:51 am
sprite

I already showered, cleaned up a bit and found ALL K-words, plus enough to get a total of 228 so far in babble. Later on I will make month planners for the rest of the year, clean up some more, walk Te5 and organise the shopping.
5:52 am
Brookie

Sounds like a great day, sprite. And you found all the K words! I've decided there are only 8 K words, and Babble is lying in its claims of 17 K words.
5:53 am
sprite

:D Good decision. The ke7 was a demon to find for me. I had to consult a2z at last.
5:54 am
Brookie

a2z... where do you access that?

5:56 am

I bet Atalante will know the word, though, without needing any help. It means a variety of the black rhinoceros having the posterior horn equal to or longer than the anterior horn.
5:56 am
Brookie

Okay, now at 11 K words. Still unconvince of the remaining 6.

Why herin?
5:58 am

movieman: te8: resembling a canvas building
5:58 am
herinfernallady

Because a little girl was murdered in Queensland and people are joining RIP groups on Facebook left right and centre and there is some sick perverts out there creating fake profiles and making it a joke
5:59 am
Brookie

That's really sick.
6:00 am
lynxxx

Can't you report to Facebook administrator right away Infernal?
6:00 am
herinfernallady

Yes it is. Facebook is a joke at times. I know that you can't monitor everything but if you want to report someone being abusive you have to join the group then report them. there is no administrator for some groups
6:00 am
herinfernallady

Which then begs the question of why doesn't FB shut down all non administered groups. They keep pissing aobut with it and it just gets more abusive
6:02 am

6:23 am
sprite

sprite's tips on finishing this thing relatively fast: ke7 is a rhinoceros and a helluva word to find; the 'resemble' ending is very rewarding, and look for the other endings because this grid has many.
6:23 am
lynxxx

hi Une
6:23 am
sprite

thanks crossy, and yes, but of course relatively speaking ;)
6:24 am
crosshair

ill worry bout the rhino when im at 376 lol

I will say this much: just when I started to think I was getting used to K-words, this single word convinced me again that my dislike of K-words is mutual.

i'm not a tv star but i can imagine it is quite a grueling job, and to do it for 3 or 4 years would be a major strain, even if you love that sort of thing
6:54 am
Trifioso

oh, whenever the pe5, 24 is in the grid I have to chuckle...years ago I was the drama director at a high school, and we did a play about an heiress that was trying to save her fortune, big ol' melodrama, etc. When it was written up in the yearbook, a VERY unfortunate typo had turned her into a "porky" heiress, and not a "p5, 24" heiress! poor girl!
6:56 am
bonkler

television is a huge amount of very concentrated work. some folks just can't cope with the amount of dialogue and the enormous number of hours involved. i believe tennant wanted to return to theatre as his first acting love was the stage.
6:57 am
bonkler

perky
6:57 am
bonkler

ooops
6:57 am
Trifioso

yes, I would agree, he is probably fabulous on stage, and yes, tv work does demand a long schedule, but theatre has it's own demanding schedule too! 8 shows a week two matinees.....
6:59 am
Book Doctor Gwen

don't get me wrong, as a fan i wish he would do the show 10 more years, but part of the fun of Doctor Who is getting a "fresh" new doctor every once in a while
6:59 am
Trifioso

I can see that, gwen. it opens a whole lot of new storylines up...btw, were you the one who was asking me if I could knit a dr. who scarf? Ever since I found that pattern I have been tempted, I must admit!
7:00 am
bonkler

apples and bananas. with theatre once you have the script down and the marks and cues memorized it doesn't change very much. an hour of tv is approx. 50 pages of new material every eight days. a show with effects like the doctor will often run 12-14 hours per shooting day. at the end of a season's shooting, primary cast are exhausted.
7:01 am

the scarf person was not me. tho i have a friend with one of those scarfs, but he's a bout a foot taller than me

O Captain my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

I had a college friend who was qualified to be a member, we researched my ancestry's military connections in hopes I was too - we figured we could join, take over the local chapter long enough to pass a batch of civil rights resolutions - but my only revolutionary war ancestor was on the wrong side - a drummer boy or some such with the British! So we never got to try our scheme.

wow bacon tofu...that would probably work since tofu has no real taste of it's own it absorbs flavors you put it with...hmmm on second thought I think Trader Joes may already carry a bacon tofu or else one of our other health food stores just seems like I have seen that in my travels....

I confess that I got addicted to a soap opera when I finished my dissertation a few years ago and found a little on-line community of people I otherwise would never have known...

attachment relationships- like to parents in early life, and significant others
5:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I am not a real person.
5:22 pm
jillibus

no, you're a stranger one, says your daughter
5:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne

People would posit that heroin users have a primary relationship with the drug, therefore impaired attachments with people- but I found there were no differences between users and non users
5:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Since you asked. So few people ask me anymore.
5:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne

It seemed so important at the time.
5:24 pm

No, but I work in the field and had access
5:29 pm
BabbleRabble

Well, Alice has the answers for me:
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?

5:43 pm

I believe the theme here is we are here to be supportive of each other and have fun it is a place of joy and offering of friendship and kindness but we are playful but only in a friendly way...never take yourself too seriously and we all seem to feel pretty equal here no need to brag or try to be superior over one another...it is a level playing field...do I have that right fellow babblers..comments welcome.

"Speak roughly to your little boy,
And beat him when he sneezes;
He only does it to annoy,
Because he knows it teases."

CHORUS
(in which the cook and the baby joined): -- --

"Wow! wow! wow!"

While the Duchess sang the second verse of the song, she kept tossing the baby violently up and down, and the poor little thing howled so, that Alice could hardly hear the words: -- --

"I speak severely to my boy,
I beat him when he sneezes;
For he can thoroughly enjoy
The pepper when he pleases!"

CHORUS

"Wow! wow! wow!"

her brother is in fourth grade in my school.. this has been tough on him but he's the strong silent type
6:48 pm
jillibus

well, silent, maybe not as strong as he seems?
6:49 pm
Dorens

of course, this has taken such a toll on him in ways we won't even know about. the family was fantastic though.. came home from the hospital every afternoon to try to make his life as normal as possible. but what a void this creates in their lives. really nice family, extremely religious, which does help in times like this
6:49 pm

7:26 pm
Dorens

goodness peri, i have so many games and things to distract me from life, i never get anything done!
7:26 pm
Dorens

yes wht, but the problem with that is that march follows. i have never liked march
7:27 pm
tfgrrl

i was just tickled by Jellen's typo, I'm in LA. We have no snow.
7:27 pm
lbdawger

i hope march comes in like a lion. let's get this nasty stuff over and done with!
7:27 pm
wht

I wouldn't say that too loud with this crowd. We are in the midst of a rainstorm here in Boston.
7:28 pm
wht

March often seems to come in like a lamb and go out like a lion.
7:28 pm
Dorens

march always seems so gloomy... when there's no snow, the gardens look so bleak. and there are no school holidays, so it is the longest month for us. and it seems to come AND go like a lion
7:30 pm
Dorens

and it never really feels like spring until a month after it officially starts. I say we should campaign for spring to really begin in march; that would make life much more pleasant.
7:30 pm
lbdawger

Vernal equinox is March 20th
7:31 pm

I think TS Eliot was onto something when he called April the cruelest month.
7:31 pm
Dorens

but it doesn't feel like it, dawg
7:31 pm
wht

At least here, you think it should be spring, but it isn't. But it isn't winter either.
7:31 pm
lbdawger

amen to that, since taxes are due in April, and we got screwed big time this year
7:31 pm
periwinkle

I think Feb is the worst month, alho I was born in Feb
7:31 pm
