PAV3

well, I'm here for just abit...so if there's another challenge...faith- there'rE only five lttrs aroUnD the last vowel

2:15 am

4:50 am

rubyfoo

it really does, sally, and the longer days. DST starts here this coming weekend (I think) but it is weird to have it different than in the US!

Sally-catlover

Starts here this weekend as well. Our wild daffs are just about to flower, but I was surprised to find two in flower which had had their flowers nipped off. I thought possibly by a squirrel? We haven't had that before.

Is the snow gone yet, BR?

5:31 am

BabbleRabble

No, there still is some snow, but apparently there will be no major flooding

5:31 am

Scrabbler

I saw that too, in the newspaper.

5:32 am

BabbleRabble

You must still have a bunch of snow, Scrabbler, as much as you get each winter?

5:33 am

herinfernallady

Sorry Hi Babble

5:33 am

BabbleRabble

Will you explain for me the Rule in Shelley's Case, barrister?

5:34 am

Scrabbler

There are still some large piles of snow--along the front of the house where it accumulates when it falls off my metal roof, and in the driveway where the plow pushes it into piles.

5:35 am

Scrabbler

I think she is looking that one up, BR.

BabbleRabble

My mistake, then. Please accept my apology.

"...when the ancestor by any gift or conveyance takes an estate of freehold, and in the same gift or conveyance an estate is limited either mediately or immediately to his heirs in fee simple or in fee tail; that always in such cases, 'the heirs' are words of limitation of the estate, not words of purchase.

5:43 am

BabbleRabble

Very much British

5:43 am

herinfernallady

Opps my Bad. Nope not heard if it having a squis

5:44 am

Scrabbler

Lady, are you studying to be a paralegal?

5:44 am

herinfernallady

It is called something different here. No Studying legal practice

5:45 am

herinfernallady

Ok now I get it. It is a probate property law thing.

5:46 am

herinfernallady

You can't hold a property for ever and a day. You have to leave property to someone. You have a limit 2 generations and 21 years

5:46 am

herinfernallady

Haven't really studied Perpetuities

5:48 am

BabbleRabble

the rule against perpetuities is another rule that any real estate lawyer must know

5:48 am

herinfernallady

In other words. I can't say when I die my house passes on to heir after heir after heir. You have to say It passes to heir and Heir then 21years. You can't hold the home forever and a day. It is up to the second heir to distribute the property.

5:48 am

BabbleRabble

the two are separate

5:49 am

herinfernallady

I have just done Probate and Administration. It is a property law thing but we learnt it in PRobate as its a cross over thing

5:49 am

BabbleRabble

yes, you have learned well

5:52 am

herinfernallady

Good. Does that make me a good Padawan?

5:52 am

Jayk

could one of you Learned Persons help me out with the re 5/18? And good morniing!

5:52 am

herinfernallady

I think the reason that it is both Property and Probate is that in Probate Estate comes into it

5:52 am

BabbleRabble

5:55 am

5:56 am

BabbleRabble

5:56 am

BabbleRabble

I was testing you, herin.

5:56 am

herinfernallady

Ok good so was that a good answer?

5:57 am

Jayk

5:57 am

BabbleRabble

You get a large smiley face

5:57 am

herinfernallady

Good good. I have a test coming up on Probate. It isn't that hard if you actually think which seems a foreign concept for most of my class mates

people being able to walk into any hosp and get treated will cure your illness

11:43 am

crosshair

lol

11:44 am

and people with no insurance go to EMERGENCY ROOMS right now for treatment when a $20 doctor visit would give them better care.....

11:45 am

crosshair

like i say you will save money

11:45 am

harpjane

not to mention people who retire and have to wait 24 months to get Medicare, yet they can only stay on their company insurance for 18 months....

11:45 am

crosshair

a standard emerg visit costs 500 dollars on average

11:45 am

EvaNadine

one of my friends put it very interestingly: if you drive a car, you are required to insure it. why do we think less of our own bodies?

11:46 am

crosshair

well put eva.now everyone can have that perrogative

11:46 am

harpjane

yup and a standard emerg visit is NOT the way to address something that needs thoughtful long term treatment

11:46 am

crosshair

indeed

11:46 am

harpjane

exactly, eva!

11:47 am

here our one health card covers it all,from after hours clinics,to normal doctor visits right up to ct,s and mris, at the big toronto hospitals

stidmama

1:08 pm

guernseygirl

That was the main problem. lol

1:09 pm

Nef

stid, hubby never goes on ladders. He falls without reason (he has MS and is doing very poorly now without his meds. We -still considered *middle class*! -can't afford the specific MS injections this year due to health insurance changes this year!

1:10 pm

hego

That's just awful Nef!

1:10 pm

stidmama

oh gee Nef --- I remembered he had fallen recently but thought he had been on a ladder. I am sorry our helath care sux and you can't get him the meds he needs.

1:13 pm

Nef

because we are *considered* middle class, we don't qualify for any assistance or aid. Funny thing, we are just getting by. :-( And people think that this health care bill isn't necessary!

1:13 pm

rubyfoo

nef*

1:56 pm

LuwandaHL

Nef

and since he's working on a second degree, he must have some smarts, right? (my son was and is smart; but he didn't realize that stupid actions were bad

Hello all :)

3:23 pm

Nef

hi NB. I'm supposed to be doing something; but I'm Babbling instead

3:23 pm

Nancy Boy

Oh dear Nef...what are you supposed to be doing?

3:24 pm

Nef

housework! :-) DH went to a former co-workers' retirement party and I thought I'd get some *real* housework done today!

3:25 pm

Nef

no such luck (I'm too involved to quit right now)

3:25 pm

Nancy Boy

and yet babble's suckered you in ;) it's alright around here, I actually got up at a reasonable time for once and did some cleaning

3:25 pm

Nancy Boy

I even wore an APRON

3:26 pm

Nef

Oh, Man! You can come do some for me!! <hoping!>

3:27 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL Nef. Sure, I'll just...swim there ;)

3:29 pm

Nef

okay, swim across the Atlantic, then through the Carribean to the gulf, then up the Mississippi and I'll meet you by lock #1! :-)

3:29 pm

Nef

(easy directions, huh)

3:30 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL

3:30 pm

Nancy Boy

my sense of direction is poor...I'd end up in Mexico

3:30 pm

Nancy Boy

though I don't know how exactly

3:31 pm

Nef

you probably need the sun you'd get there

3:32 pm

Nancy Boy

well actually, it's not been so bad here today...if we had a garden I'd have been out in it. When it hits summer, I'll stand under the leak in the ceiling to cool down

3:34 pm

Nef

oh, MY! That doesn't sound good! The ceiling may fall in!

3:34 pm

Nancy Boy

welllll, it's only when it rains! we're hopeless optimists in this flat, by the way. We're too poor to live in London without rattly windows and ceiling leaks ;)

3:36 pm

Nancy Boy

(lots of the time the leak can be "fixed" by going up to the roof and putting one of the plant pots over the little crack)

3:37 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hello boys and gir;s

Kaplan the Magne

3:37 pm

Nancy Boy

Hiya, Kap!

3:38 pm

Kaplan the Magne

How are things in Babbleland?

3:38 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have 15 left- maybe I'll come back and find a list later

3:39 pm

Nancy Boy

I'm not finding this grid so agreeable, actually. I swear most of the time I come onto babble just to chat

3:39 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Most of the action is in the lower right- but not all

3:41 pm

redturtlehead

hi everyone. I dont know why but a visit to the Physician always leaves me drained.

3:41 pm

Nef

Hi Kaplan. Sorry NB, I had a phone call there.. I'm glad you are hopeless optimists; but that would worry me to have a leaking ceiling

3:41 pm

Nef

hi red

3:41 pm

Nancy Boy

Hey Red. I know exactly what you mean. The optician, however, I enjoy.

3:42 pm

redturtlehead

Leaking ceiling would be alright, unless something falls through the ceiling... I am so so tired.

3:42 pm

Nancy Boy

No problem Nef :) well, we'll get it fixed one day, don't worry about us ;)

3:44 pm

Nef

red, what did they do to you? a regular doctors appt. drained you that much?

3:46 pm

Nef

wow. Down to 36 and I can't see any more words at all.

3:47 pm

Kaplan the Magne

OK I'm back. Is ther e a Lickety today?

3:47 pm

Nef

yep, Kaplan, just opened it myself

3:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

OK I'll try it for my last 15 because I'm stumped

3:49 pm

Nef

I was too.

3:49 pm

Nef

brum

3:50 pm

Nef

OOPS! Sorry

3:50 pm

jmbdobie2

perilously close to the pb nef

3:51 pm

Nancy Boy

I tried Brum too...that's what a person from Birmingham is called; it should be a word!

3:51 pm

Nef

true, but *not* quite there yet (Besides, I ate most of the choclit there earlier; I'll have to replace it now)

3:51 pm

Nef

NB, add a vowel

3:51 pm

TeaNCrackers

hi all

3:51 pm

Nancy Boy

oooh. ta!

3:52 pm

Nef

Hi TNC. Haven't seen you for a while!

3:52 pm

TeaNCrackers

I pop in now and again, life is busy!

3:53 pm

Nef

I know. For some reason it never slows down, just goes faster and faster

3:53 pm

TeaNCrackers

especially with two little ones, volunteering at school, being the girl scout leader, the PTO vp, and working part time

3:53 pm

TeaNCrackers

today is a rare break

3:55 pm

Nef

how did that happen? (Maybe you can plan a few more???)

3:56 pm

TeaNCrackers

the little guy is at a friends house, the big girl is at school and it is a latae start for me for work today, since we are slow right now

3:56 pm

TeaNCrackers

I'm trying!

3:56 pm

Nef

Good for you! Enjoy! :-)

3:57 pm

TeaNCrackers

thank you!

4:01 pm

Nef

BBL, gotta do a little work now. Happy Babbling, everybody!

4:02 pm

TeaNCrackers

enjoy!

4:04 pm

TeaNCrackers

sav e

4:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have 5 left. Help with the first de5 and the second de6- the one that doesn't mean reserved?

4:05 pm

TeaNCrackers

no help, here, sorry! I need both of those, also

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I got them- they're like the reserved one but withpout the last vowel

4:06 pm

TeaNCrackers

great, thanks for sharing!

4:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The last le6?

4:08 pm

TeaNCrackers

I have no le words, sorry

4:09 pm

Kaplan the Magne

There are a lot of variations on an animal, but I don't know if the one I need is another one

4:09 pm

Kaplan the Magne

br5/18 then?

4:10 pm

TeaNCrackers

I got the first three animal ones

4:10 pm

lynxxx

le6 an anagram of the el6.24

4:10 pm

TeaNCrackers

br 5/18 is a different spelling of what you sweep with

4:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thank you

4:11 pm

TeaNCrackers

you are welcome!

4:11 pm

TeaNCrackers

thanks, lynxxx got a bunch from that

4:12 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The last le6/24 and bu5/18?

4:12 pm

TeaNCrackers

le 6/24 is a plural

4:13 pm

TeaNCrackers

there is no bu 5/18

4:13 pm

Kaplan the Magne

bu5/16

4:13 pm

TeaNCrackers

in 6/21

4:13 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I still don't get the le6.

4:14 pm

TeaNCrackers

do you have the le 4/6? plural that

4:14 pm

lynxxx

le6 ends like el6.24

4:14 pm

TeaNCrackers

the last bu 5/16 rhymes with what women carry

4:15 pm

TeaNCrackers

the second to last one just changes the ending vowel

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thank you

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The SECOND to last 5u5 I mean.

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Bu5

4:16 pm

lynxxx

in6.21 means whole or not broken

4:16 pm

redturtlehead

dromano66

returtlehead, if you like number puzzles, it is great. simple math problems in a grid and only one of each number in a column....go to kenken.com.....i just found it and love them

4:31 pm

redturtlehead

hate math. But someone will probably love them! THanks for the info....

4:32 pm

hurshy

i adore kenken.

4:32 pm

redturtlehead

and thanks Lynnx, I needed that Du** word.

4:32 pm

hurshy

only the big ones, though. even the 7's are starting to feel ... almost too easy.

4:33 pm

hurshy

unlike the L's in this grid.

4:33 pm

redturtlehead

I gotta admit, I feel like I have enough with Babble and keeping up on my scramble games....

4:34 pm

redturtlehead

I have 8 L's I think the last three are obviously awful!!!

4:34 pm

hurshy

i only have 6

4:34 pm

redturtlehead

lots of Lu's for me.

4:35 pm

redturtlehead

Mostly 4's words I did not think were words.

4:35 pm

hurshy

i have 3 le...

4:35 pm

hurshy

ah, thanks, that gave me two more LU

4:35 pm

redturtlehead

we should combine Hursh. I think we'd have them all then...

4:36 pm

redturtlehead

I only have 2 le, the monkeys

4:36 pm

hurshy

the other one sounds like bawdy which there is also the lu that sounds the same

4:36 pm

redturtlehead

Ok thanks, I now have 3 le words.

4:36 pm

hurshy

oh, and i'd missed a simple past tense. so now we are both up to 9.

4:37 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

4:37 pm

hurshy

ugh, i have 9 words left and 4 of them are 7's.

4:37 pm

redturtlehead

yes, 9/11 the last two must be atrocious, if neither of us highly intelligetn peopels can figure it out...lol

4:38 pm

hurshy

aha, monkeyed a trio of e's 6-7-7

4:38 pm

redturtlehead

I keep attempting brule, like creme brule. is it brulee or just not english!

4:38 pm

hurshy

that's much better.

4:38 pm

redturtlehead

the em's?

4:38 pm

redturtlehead

hello JMCrick!

4:38 pm

4:41 pm

wildcat17

5 le?

4:41 pm

hurshy

no i meant red and i only had 3 le before so now we know there are 4. maybe 5 but we don't know.

4:41 pm

redturtlehead

It was leprechaun icon day today, and I always found them a bit spooky. But I may be the only participant....so it looks odd.

4:41 pm

redturtlehead

we will be looking for le's

4:41 pm

jmcnrick

ah that is sure not the cheerful leprechaun of the commercial world

4:42 pm

redturtlehead

no, i wanted to be a bit original, but...being that I am the only one...it does seem odd.

4:42 pm

jmcnrick

i always found the drawings of the cute buggers did not jive with the stories for me either

4:43 pm

jmcnrick

i am sure others did it red but i am enraptured by my cape

4:43 pm

jmcnrick

*swoooosh*

4:43 pm

redturtlehead

I like your cape too. and it was time to get rid of the flower.

4:43 pm

4:44 pm

jmcnrick

4:44 pm

hurshy

4:44 pm

jmcnrick

4:45 pm

jmcnrick

i was informed that they say timber rather than lumber

4:45 pm

hurshy

wait, why are you thanking me?

4:45 pm

redturtlehead

ahhhh odd, thanks hursh. now 10/11

4:45 pm

hurshy

oh no it was wildcat, not you, that said 4 le, i see.

4:45 pm

jmcnrick

4:45 pm

redturtlehead

and timbre is a word, just doesnt mean the same thing.

4:45 pm

jmcnrick

4:46 pm

bojazz

timbre is a muscial reference3, is it not?

4:46 pm

hurshy

but what about lumbering around? as in moving like a big oaf? don't they say that? and it could be lumbre, lumbring, etc

4:46 pm

redturtlehead

4:46 pm

redturtlehead

4:47 pm

bojazz

jmcnrick

4:56 pm

hurshy

4:56 pm

redturtlehead

I do jmc, just poking at little fun at Biden...

4:56 pm

hurshy

i only read it online, i haven't seen/heard the clip

4:57 pm

jmcnrick

ah -- well one of the many reasons i don't run for office

4:57 pm

redturtlehead

4:57 pm

redturtlehead

monkeys bojazz.

4:57 pm

hurshy

you're a politician. always assume there's a mic on.

4:57 pm

redturtlehead

Well, you know Biden....It could have been worse.

4:58 pm

bojazz

thx red

4:58 pm

redturtlehead

Apparently Dick Cheney also used the F bomb in reference to a person in senate at one point in time...

4:58 pm

jmcnrick

never a good plan

4:58 pm

hurshy

i guess. i mean the content of his thought was not like, saying anything about anybody, so, i guess really it's not a f***ing big deal!

4:59 pm

jmcnrick

lol hursh

4:59 pm

redturtlehead

No, I thought Hurshy that it was just funny....especially when it made the news more prominently than anything newsworthy.

4:59 pm

wildcat17

fireflies

5:00 pm

jmcnrick

whoo hooo wild

5:00 pm

hurshy

i just can't believe the people who have spat on senators and used racial epithets and mocked a random guy with parkinson's...

5:00 pm

redturtlehead

COngratulations WILDCAT!!!!!! WHOOOOO HOOOOOO

5:00 pm

hurshy

and with all the talk about states' rights... i feel like the hot tub time machine has taken us all back 150 years!

5:00 pm

i personally think the senators should have brought assault charges -- in these days of AIDs being transmitted with body fluids. . . .

5:01 pm

jmcnrick

only about 50 years hursh

5:01 pm

redturtlehead

The funny thing is that...I think in 20 years time or less, this will be something that people don't even talk about, they will just assume it was always that way...

5:01 pm

hurshy

did they talk about states' rights a lot then? i thought that was just a civil war thing, not civil rights mvmt.

5:02 pm

redturtlehead

definitely was a part of the civil rights movement.

5:02 pm

jmcnrick

the guys who stood in front of the school houses were states rights activists -- think George Wallace

5:02 pm

redturtlehead

I only know it hursh because I got to study the civil right movement for one entire year in my jr year of school.

5:02 pm

5:03 pm

5:04 pm

hurshy

sounds delish

5:04 pm

bojazz

5:05 pm

jmcnrick

i think help care is a right because we believe life is a right and health care is what makes that a possibility

5:06 pm

jmcnrick

why the pb? *reads red's post*

5:06 pm

hurshy

well *i* agree but i'm just acknowledging that not everyone does.

5:06 pm

6:09 pm

stidmama

6:13 pm

mkg

hi all. is it a tough grid?

6:13 pm

I was thinking peri might need to crop the pic to get it to square?

6:13 pm

stidmama

6:14 pm

periwinkle

ok, will try that, ty

6:14 pm

6:22 pm

welki

and? are you gazing at yourself?

6:22 pm

stidmama

welki, the only thing you MUST do right now is take care of yourself. And if playing a game helps, then play a game. If taking a warm bubble bath helps, then do that. And if you need to cry, or talk, or whatever, do those things.

6:23 pm

stidmama

oh joey -- no idea you were up for surgery! *worried mama look* do you have help at home so you don't overdo?

6:23 pm

my hubby is a doctor. did a study on a huge french catholic family where half of the 100+ first cousins had the same disease. when he went and did the genetic blood work, he discovered a lot of incest. and when he then spoke to the parents they told him the truth. for example, yes it was the child of this woman and her brother. yes it was an out of wedlock child. etc. he was in shock.

le 7/36 looks like an irregular plural of le5/14, but it means "the spirits of the dead considered in ancient Rome as frightening specters and often exorcised from the homes in religious rituals"

Heyas kids ..

That fight that our cat got into the other night cost be £46 (approx $68) at the vet's today. Mind you, judging by the fur and skin on our cat's claws, the other fella probably doesn't look too good either.:-(

8:43 pm

Jacula

*me not 'be'

8:44 pm

HaHaHaHa!

8:44 pm

torgone

Oh, not your story Jacs ..

8:44 pm

Jacula

I did wonder, torg...

8:45 pm

torgone

A line from The Simpsons ..

8:45 pm

Jacula

Ah.

8:45 pm

torgone

Too bad about the cat fight ..

8:46 pm

torgone

"Hey Paris Hilton! I saw a disgusting part of your body on the internet - your face!"

8:47 pm

Jacula

Yes. Our cat's very territorial. I said to the vet, 'I thought neutering was supposed to calm cats down.' 'Think what he'd be like if he WASN'T neutered!' said the vet. That was something I didn't care to contemplate for long.

8:47 pm

Jacula

LOL, torg.

8:50 pm

Jacula

Hmm... I mention neutering and Torg goes very quiet. LOL

8:50 pm

Hi Crossy. Our cat's about 10, we think. There is NOTHING 'cute' about him.

Heh ..

8:52 pm

we just lost our 15 year old kitty and are left with the 2 year old fixed male and a 5 year old fixed female

8:52 pm

Was that a Torg I just heard?

8:53 pm

darn, gotta reboot

8:53 pm

Jacula

Crossy - sorry about your loss.

On the 30th it will be TENROC day, suggested by FM, I think it will be very cool!

Oh, feather's off to put her boots back on again! Who's she going to kick? :-)

8:54 pm

err tenrec.

8:54 pm

np..we got her cremated,best idea ever...its still like she is part of the family

8:54 pm

Jacula

I was just going to ask what a tenroc is.

8:54 pm

crosshair

we have her ashes,her favorite food bowl and her fav toy all set up

8:55 pm

Jacula

Crossy - we did that with our female cat. She sits in a lovely carved box on the shelf next to the window and her favourite armchair with her smelly, tatty old toy mouse on the box.

8:56 pm

crosshair

lol we have our kitty in a nice cedar maple box all st up with her other things

8:57 pm

CadFan

We have a pet cemetery in the sunniest corner of the yard. Our Cat, and three dogs are all back there - and each has a small headstone - made from rocks in the yard and painted by my husband.

8:58 pm

crosshair

cre4mation and the box etc cost us 200 but it was worth it

8:58 pm

Jacula

I think I've said before on here that our female cat, after having to live rough for much of her early life, before she found me (aka Soft Touch), was very much an indoor kind of girl. Our male cat is an outdoors kind of guy. I think if we try to keep him in a box indoors when he 'does', the box would leap out of the window. I think we'll have to 'scatter' him in his favourite mouse-watching place.

8:58 pm

crosshair

lol

8:59 pm

Jacula

Cad - we have one of those up in our little fruit orchard. It's full of rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, a gerbil, goldfish...

9:00 pm

Jacula

There is also a statue of St. Francis of Assissi watching over the graves.

9:01 pm

Nef

hello again.

9:02 pm

Jacula

The only pet who is not back home is our old dog. I was so upset and distressed when I had to take him on his final journey after nearly 18 years of companionship, that I forgot to ask for him back. I still can't believe I did that.

9:02 pm

Jacula

Hi Nef.

9:03 pm

Nef

We've burried 2 cats and our dog in our backyard; marked the cat's graves with catnip and the dogs with a nice strawberry garden (it's illegal for us to bury pets here)

9:03 pm

Nef

inour yards I mean

9:03 pm

Jacula

Having said that, and at the risk of sounding mad, he didn't really leave until our female cat moved in and he was sure we'd bonded. I'm sure you pet owners know what I mean.

9:05 pm

Jacula

Nef - I read a few years ago that it's illegal to bury pets in your garden here in UK now, in case they pollute the water supply. Apparently, you are supposed to contact someone to dispose of the remains, and pay for it.

9:06 pm

Nef

I wonder how that would pollute the water supply? Our yard has about 4-5 inches of topsoil and then it's clay, so I'm sure that our animals won't pollute the water. The clay is pretty compacted

9:07 pm

Jacula

Speaking of strawberries, I remember when we had about 18 rabbits and we'd been strawberry picking, my daughter decided to see if rabbits like strawberries. Next morning, having forgotten she'd fed ripe red fruits, she screamed in horror when the fluffy white rabbit appeared to be 'covered in blood'.

9:07 pm

Nef

Oh, MY!

9:07 pm

Jacula

Ditto Nef.

9:08 pm

Jacula

Nef - she soon realised.

9:09 pm

Nef

but I can imagine it was still quite the scare for her!

9:09 pm

Jacula

Yes, it was.

9:10 pm

Nef

speaking of rabbits, I found we had some dead ones in the corner of the yard today. I don't know if it was the weather or what may have killed them (they were pretty decomposed). I wonder if they would also pollute your water supply if an animal just dies outside, Jac?

9:13 pm

Jacula

Nef - that stupid law was just another of the 'try to force the people to do what you say' thing the Labour Government has sneakily passed. They have turned the UK into a Nanny State, almost on a par with Orwell's book '1984'. Political correctness has got out of control and we have more CCTV cameras per square mile watching us than any other country in the world.

9:14 pm

Jacula

No, of course burying pets won't pollute the water supply, unless you chuck 'em down a well or into a spring or a drain.

9:14 pm

Nef

does that mean less crime too? Or just more intrusiveness?

9:14 pm

torgone

And more bad laws on the way Jacs .. Have you heard of the Digital Britain abomination?

9:14 pm

Jacula

Torg - No! Oh Lord! What next?

9:15 pm

Jacula

Nef - mostly more intrusiveness. Crime doesn't get any less because patriotism and looking out for your fellow man goes out of the window.

9:16 pm

Riverdance

Hi All - thought I would stop in and say Hi and see if anyone needed help

9:16 pm

torgone

Legislation being pushed through Parliament by entertainment industry lobbyists that stands to greatly curtail your rights ..

9:16 pm

Jacula

Hi Momgiving help.

9:17 pm

Riverdance

Ooh - we are in deep conversation tonight

9:17 pm

Nef

hi Mom

9:17 pm

Jacula

Do go on, Torg...

9:17 pm

Jacula

Sorry Mom, I'm coming over all political.

9:17 pm

Riverdance

Thats OK - I need to back up in the log to see what is going on

9:19 pm

Nef

Is anyone here that was on earlier when I asked about how to get super glue off the plastic lens of my glasses? I'd like to report that the nail polish remover didn't work, and it didn't harm the glasses either

9:19 pm

torgone

So as not to clog up the chat Jacs .. See here:http://www.openrightsgroup.org/ca

hi Pini

9:23 pm

Pinikula

how goes it?

9:23 pm

torgone

It goes ..

9:23 pm

Pinikula

been there, done that sorta thing?

9:24 pm

Nef

okay for me; how about for you tonight?

9:24 pm

Nef

derub

9:24 pm

Pinikula

not too bad...spent some time in the ER late this afternoon/earlier this evening...co-worker took ill...I volunteered to take the rest of the afternoon off to take her in...

9:24 pm

Nef

OOOPS! Sorry. 18 left and 9 are D's

9:24 pm

Riverdance

Ok, I think I have caught up - we bury our pets in our yard so they can stay close to us. Our last dog that died was 10 years ago and our kids made a great stone to honor her. We have one that will pass soon (hopefully not but...) and will do the same. I talk to our old girl everytime I walk the yard. It is fitting! Politics - I dont care. My family that includes my pets I do. Crossy, sorry to hear you lost a family member.

9:25 pm

Jacula

Nef - you might need a little patience to get the superglue off your specs. Nail polish remover is the answer, but give the glue time to dissolve. It might need 3 or 4 goes. Then wipe with undiluted washing up liquid (not dishwasher solution, but for hand washing dishes) and then run under a warm tap(fawcet). Dry and then polish.

9:26 pm

Nef

that works for plastic lenses?

9:27 pm

Riverdance

Pini - you are a good friend - stressful for the friends as well - how are you doing

9:27 pm

Nef

I was using a tiny amount just on the super glued area, but I did try a number of times.

9:27 pm

Jacula

However, Nef, if you have a tint and/or anti-glare coating on the lenses you may need to get them redone. See your optician.

9:28 pm

Jacula

We have a thing in the UK called 'Sticky Stuff Remover'. It works miracles.

9:28 pm

Nef

I've already made an appt. for Fri AM

9:28 pm

Riverdance

Call the optometrist or where you got your glasses

9:28 pm

Pinikula

I'm doing fine...was keeping her distracted (she was experiencing a sharp pain in her lower right side); we were trying to deduce whether or not it's her gall bladder or appendix...she's still at the hospital; so I'm simply waiting for a phone call from her to see how she's doing and to pick her up if they release her.

9:28 pm

Nef

Hmmm, wonder if that's the same as GooGone?

9:28 pm

Riverdance

we have goo gone here - works great on artificial surfaces but I dont know about glasses

9:28 pm

Pinikula

sounds like it, Nef ;)

9:29 pm

Riverdance

Pini are you a nurse

9:29 pm

Pinikula

nope (thankfully)

9:30 pm

Nef

thankfully? Why do you say that, Pini?

9:30 pm

Riverdance

couldnt remember this week I had an alergic reaction to a new med and was telling my fellow babblers about it =cant remember who was on line

9:30 pm

Pinikula

No offense to nurses! I can't handle getting my blood drawn...

9:30 pm

Nef

I beleive I was on at that point Mom.

9:31 pm

Jacula

Nef - this might sound like a silly question, but is your nail polish remover an 'acetone free' one? Some are oil-based so as not do dry out your nails. It's the acetone you need to dissolve the glue.

9:31 pm

Riverdance

well I was pretty out of it that day but still played the game - addicted huh?

9:31 pm

Nef

it was a BP med, right (and I'm a nurse; talked about the old bee sting kit...)

9:32 pm

Riverdance

yes nef I remember

9:32 pm

Pinikula

not addicted! just a devoted player like the rest of us! LOL

9:32 pm

Riverdance

I am still looking alittle sunburned but OK

9:32 pm

Nef

Jac, I had to wait for our dtr. to come home to try it. she has both and brought them both up. neither worked

9:33 pm

Jacula

Nef - how long did you wait for it to work?

9:33 pm

Riverdance

I dont remember much from yesterday actually. Got myself so worked up.

9:33 pm

Jacula

3 - 5 mins is optimum time.

9:33 pm

Nef

Jac, I was using q-tips and would rub it on the glue then use a dry one and rub it off

9:34 pm

Riverdance

Have you gone online to check other remedies?

9:34 pm

stidmama

hello all

9:34 pm

Riverdance

Hi Stid

9:34 pm

Jacula

Hi stid.

9:35 pm

Nef

Mom, it's scary to have that happen. If it was a BP med; it may take a couple of days for your color to return to normal

9:35 pm

stidmama

pini! are you staying in a tent in our backyard in August? are you bringing Koda?

9:35 pm

Nef

hi again stid

9:35 pm

Pinikula

sounds like that might work, stid...and yes, if he's welcome along the way...

9:36 pm

stidmama

he's absolutely welcome. We don't have a fenced yard, but can figure something out (rural road, very little traffic -- another beagle next door)

9:36 pm

Pinikula

otherwise, I might be able to get my dau to let him camp her house with her 2 beagles...

9:37 pm

stidmama

okay, listing at one.

9:37 pm

Pinikula

He's good on a long leash (have one, will bring) and he can be kenneled at night (will bring that, too)

9:37 pm

stidmama

fishy fishy fishy... firewords!

9:37 pm

Pinikula

wtg stid! :)

9:37 pm

stidmama

sounds fine, pini.

9:37 pm

Nef

YAY, stid!!! WTG!!!!

9:38 pm

Riverdance

congrats stid

9:39 pm

stidmama

so. jill wanted me to let everyone know that she is offline for a while. She isn't having good luck with her internet connection.

9:39 pm

Riverdance

so you are a group of friends here

9:39 pm

stidmama

how about you LBD? are you coming in August?

9:39 pm

Jacula

Anyway, don't talk to me about superglue. I once managed to glue my jumper to the edge of a kitchen work surface. Had to wriggle out of the jumper to get away and then use a razor blade to separate the jumper from the work surface. Another time, I superglued a smiley face stone disc onto a nail just outside my back door. I pressed it into place with my left forefinger for a minute. When the minute was up, my finger was also stuck. No one was home but me. I was not going to have the embarrassment of being in the local paper if the fire brigade had to rescue me and so, not even caring if my skin ripped, I applied some force with my other hand to free myself. It worked, but there was a hard patch of glue on the pad of my left index finger for about a week afterwards.

9:39 pm

Pinikula

so sorry to hear, stid...I hope it's resolved soon!

9:40 pm

stidmama

well yes, Mom -- we become friends here. Some of us haven't met in person (yet), but we keep hoping!

9:40 pm

stidmama

brb supper needs tending

9:40 pm

Jacula

I've also still got the jumper I got stuck in. 10 years on, it still has a tiny hard patch where the glue was.

9:40 pm

Pinikula

oh my, jac!!! * hiding superglue *

9:40 pm

Pinikula

whereabouts are you, mom?

9:41 pm

Nef

well, I have trifocals and should have waited for someone else to repair my glasses as I can't see a darn thin up close these days

9:41 pm

Riverdance

I am in New Hampshire - didnt know if you all came on together or met here. I am envious if you met here. I am new to this site and hope to meet many new friends

9:42 pm

Nef

got the glue smeared across the upper inner corner of the glass lens

9:42 pm

Pinikula

I met everyone here in Babbleland...

9:42 pm

Pinikula

...and the ones I've met in person as a result are stid and her mom, stidg ;)

9:42 pm

Riverdance

I had progressive bifocals for a while - hated them and went with 3 pairs of glasses - yes call me crazy!

9:42 pm

9:43 pm

Pinikula

thx grem!

9:43 pm

Pinikula

Jacula

Pini - you haven't met everyone in Babbleland. LOL.

9:43 pm

9:44 pm

Pinikula

Can I get a bottom center R and U clue?

9:44 pm

Nef

Mom, welcome aboard. I've met all my fellow Babblers here except for 2 that I haven't *seen* here in several years and one that just came back after not being here for over ayear (I met those 3 on a different site and they told me about Babble)

9:44 pm

9:46 pm

Nef

I've been playing since Aug. of '05 and this is probably one of the most up-beat group you will ever find on the internet

9:46 pm

Jacula

re clues - regretted? Reigned?

9:46 pm

Riverdance

there is no stress with timing = can chat if I want or not - people here are so friendly

9:46 pm

Nef

bye, bigred

9:46 pm

Jacula

Odd way of spelling what you did with a book?

9:46 pm

Pinikula

it's definitely one of the best I've found, Nef!

9:46 pm

Nef

9:47 pm

thanks for the offer pini - coast to coast huh? I dont see that happening soon but we will keep our chat up and who knows

9:47 pm

9:47 pm

stidmama

9:48 pm

Nef

Mom, I'm going to a wedding in July in Montana and am hopefully going to meet some Babblers there

9:48 pm

Pinikula

that's what we do, Mom...just keep coming back for fun game and good friends...

9:48 pm

Jacula

re5/18 - what the film editor did again to put the foreign words on a film.

9:48 pm

Riverdance

I need to get to bed soon - early and busy day tomorrow - anyone need any help before I leave

9:48 pm

Pinikula

ooooh, just 2 more R's and they're all done! (thx jac)

9:48 pm

stidmama

YAY bigred!

9:48 pm

Pinikula

I should probably get something to eat and open the list...

9:49 pm

Riverdance

You are getting almost half way there Nef

9:49 pm

stidmama

I hope you get a chance to meet some babblers in person, Mom -- there are some on the east coast (more southerly though, the Boston area and the DC area) who get together sometimes

9:49 pm

Jacula

I need to get a dress turned up ready for a party on Saturday night, and the house dusted and polished for a visit from my cousin, who I haven't seen for years, on Sunday morning.

9:49 pm

stidmama

go pini go!

9:49 pm

Jacula

y/w Pini.

9:49 pm

Pinikula

ok, stid...back shortly...

9:49 pm

Riverdance

Boston is an hour and a half away. I was chatting with someone from Vermont that was about the same.

9:50 pm

Pinikula

g'night mom; don't work too hard, jac!

9:50 pm

stidmama

what fun, Jac! I hope you'll enjoy the party -- and the visit!

9:50 pm

Riverdance

Good Luck Jacula

9:51 pm

Riverdance

The best of nights all - sleep tight - poof

9:51 pm

Nef

night, mom1

9:51 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams Mom

9:52 pm

Jacula

Stid _ I hope so, too. I just wish social events didn't hide for months and then all come at once. I was asked out for a meal on the night of the party, a family birthday meal. The party we'd already accepted the invitation to is for my Other Half's niece's 16th birthday.

9:53 pm

Jacula

'Night Mom.

9:53 pm

Nef

busy weekend Jac.

9:53 pm

stidmama

I know how that is, Jac -- this two weeks that I "would" have had vacation ended up with just a few days (that's how I made it up to Canada with Mother).

9:53 pm

Jacula

Stid - yes, I saw that.

9:55 pm

Jacula

The party is '7.30 'til late', which probably means until about 3am. Then there's 30 mins to get home. Ho on earth will I be awake and bright and breezy at 11am when my cousin arrives?

9:56 pm

stidmama

don't stay for the whole thing???

9:56 pm

Jacula

Even if we leave at midnight, get home at 12.30, I get to sleep about 1.30am, if I'm lucky and no hot flushes...

9:56 pm

Jacula

stid - it's not up to me. I'm not the driver and it isn't my family.

9:57 pm

Jacula

I need an hour minimum,preferably 2 before I feel sociable in the morning. Plus 2 giant cups of tea and a Babble fix.

9:57 pm

stidmama

oh, that makes it hard, Jac.

9:58 pm

Jacula

I'm being defeatist here. I'm sure I will cope fine.

9:58 pm

Nef

Well, DH made reservations for us (using a gift card from a retirement gift of mine) for this fancy old fashioned hotel about 70 miles south of the Cities for Friday night and then made reservations for us to catch a bus (Sat. AM) to go to a special honors ceremony for a men's club buddy of his that is 80 miles North of the Cities! He just realized tonight that it wouldn't work!

9:58 pm

stidmama

retirement, Nef???

9:58 pm

stidmama

oh -- that seems like a lot of "back and forthing" as my mother would say

9:59 pm

Jacula

stid - I know just was Stidgmere means.

9:59 pm

Jacula

*what not was

9:59 pm

stidmama

you usually do (cope) Jac -- but in the meantime, it's not a lot of fun to think about!

10:00 pm

Nef

I had to retire from ICU nursing when I injured my foot, stid. That was back in 2007, the hospital goofed and didn't give me a tea, nor did they give me the retirement gift pkg and honor certificate til last year.

10:00 pm

stidmama

oh -- I had missed that, Nef. what a bummer, to miss your big party.

10:01 pm

Nef

(I never did get the tea, however) But $300 worth of gift certificates was a nice treat

10:02 pm

Jacula

stid - the most not fun thing to think about is having to listen to the type of music 16-year-olds like all night!

10:02 pm

Nef

My co-workers gave me a very nice party at Olive Garden restraunt; and several gifts, including a14 inch tall Lladro (sp?) statue of a nurse

10:03 pm

Jacula

I do hope there's not too much 'gangsta rap' as that makes me want to kill people and I'd hate to be a party pooper.:-(

10:03 pm

harpjane

hello 60 to go

10:03 pm

stidmama

hey harp!

10:03 pm

Nef

Jac, maybe the driver of the car will need to leave early because of the musicv?

10:03 pm

stidmama

rofl Jac!

10:03 pm

Nef

hi harp

10:03 pm

Jacula

Hi Harp. Do you think you could possibly be around to play calming harp music into my ear on Saturday night?

10:04 pm

stidmama

glad you had a nice party at the restaurant -- I really like Lladro pieces, they are quite elegant. Used to have a goose but it was broken in one of the many moves

10:05 pm

harpjane

well, I'm playing Passion Sunday music on Saturday night, will that calm you down?

10:05 pm

harpjane

em6

10:05 pm

harpjane

em6?

10:05 pm

Jacula

Nef - it all just washes over the car driver, music wise. If he gets a dose of UB40's Red Red Wine, he's happy. The song, in this instance, since he can't drink due to being the driver.

10:05 pm

Nef

LOL, harp!

10:06 pm

Jacula

harp -em6, often spelled im6, is to stain (as with blood).

10:06 pm

Nef

em6/30= em +odd way to spell a beer (home ****)

10:06 pm

stidmama

okie dokie. I am heading out to eat and rest a bit. see you-all tomorrow! *poof*

10:07 pm

Jacula

'Bye stid.

10:07 pm

Nef

bye stid

10:07 pm

harpjane

thanks,

10:07 pm

Jacula

Well, Harp... I'm really not sure about that.

10:08 pm

Jacula

The Passion Sunday music, I meant.

10:09 pm

Jacula

I will probably need the calming sound of gentle waterfalls in lush green valleys. You know the sort of thing.

10:09 pm

harpjane

it's a bit on the solemn side....

10:09 pm

harpjane

does the ve7 build off the 4?

10:10 pm

Jacula

I will need something like that to counteract the 'smack up ma bitch' rap stuff. I really do not want to go on a killing spree and end up smashing all their cds and throwing the player out of the window if switching the power off doesn't work. LOL

10:11 pm

Jacula

Harp - no it doesn't.

10:11 pm

harpjane

didn't think so

10:11 pm

Jacula

ve7 is lush greenery or vegetation.

10:12 pm

harpjane

ah!

10:12 pm

harpjane

le7?

10:12 pm

Jacula

Anagram for an impolite vicar.

10:13 pm

Jacula

le7 = the animal that is le5, whose plural is le6, with a vowel before the last letter.

10:13 pm

HollyF

re5/18?

10:14 pm

harpjane

thanks

10:14 pm

harpjane

to record something again, holly

10:14 pm

Jacula

le7 means the unexorcised ghosts of a dead family.

10:14 pm

harpjane

mu6?

10:14 pm

Jacula

Holly - re5.18 is what the film editor did again to put the foreign subtitles on the film.

10:15 pm

Jacula

harp - mu6 is killing.

10:15 pm

Thank you thank you thank you

10:16 pm

Jacula

Holly, y/w

10:16 pm

harpjane

this morning i kept trying to enter to play percussion again, which is the killing anagram

10:16 pm

Jacula

Harp - I tried that one, too.

10:17 pm

harpjane

it made me want to go play my congo, again

10:17 pm

Jacula

It's amazing how many words cannot have the 're' prefix' and how many you've never heard or used in your life that can.

10:19 pm

Jacula

Let's give thanks to SKY TV, the medium that gave the UK access to what was being watched in the USA, and so helped us understand some of our differences.

10:19 pm

harpjane

it's pretty random if you ask me

10:20 pm

Nef

10:20 pm

Jacula

Harp - it seems random with the dictionary this site uses, but if you get yourself a very good, many-volumed dictionary, and add a smattering of knowledge of other languages and the history of language, then it's not so random.

10:21 pm

Jacula

Keep going, Nef.

10:21 pm

harpjane

well i have no use for a dictionary that doesn't work in babble.....

10:22 pm

Nef

fireworks!

10:23 pm

Jacula

Well done, Nef!

10:23 pm

harpjane

br 5/18?

10:24 pm

Jacula

Harp - I'm just fascinated by languages, words, similarities etc., but maybe that's because I'm a writer.

10:24 pm

harpjane

me too actually jac

10:24 pm

Jacula

Sounds like what you sweep the floor with, Harp.

10:25 pm

Jacula

It means a fog or a mist.

Jacula

Jacula

Harp - what, fascinated or a writer, or both?

10:27 pm

harpjane

not a writer, i just like words and word origins

10:27 pm

Nef

good night, all. DH is asking for help again

10:27 pm

Jacula

I think we Babblers are very different from professional Scrabble players. They just look at the numbers/scores and most don't care what the word actually mean.

10:28 pm

Jacula

I'm not very good at Scrabble but I like crossword puzzles

10:30 pm

10:31 pm

Jacula

I came here via doing crosswords, Harp.

10:31 pm

harpjane

we would all stand around and worship dr god and lickety

10:32 pm

Jacula

Harp - speak for yourself.

10:32 pm

Jacula

DR God would get a thank you and a peck on the cheek for starting this and for keeping it going.

10:33 pm

harpjane

done and g'night

10:33 pm

harpjane

thanks for the clues!

10:34 pm

Jacula

I wouldn't dare give Lickety a peck on the cheek, lest MrP whack me one. LOL. Anyway, BJ was king before him, and, to be honest, I can usually find my way through the grids, due to BJ's early tutoring and Babble experience now without a list giver.

10:35 pm

Jacula

10:35 pm

that's right bj was the vest!

10:35 pm

10:43 pm

Jacula

s'okay.

10:44 pm

Jacula

Anyway, most clues posted help someone along the way, even after we've gone. That's true of Babble and of life. LOL

10:44 pm

Pinikula

of course, jac!

10:45 pm

Pinikula

10:54 pm

Jacula

cyber - last I saw from her on Facebook ws that she would be back amongst us soon withno broken bones.

10:54 pm

cybernan

that is good news -- poor girl, she has had so many health issues.

10:55 pm

cybernan

off til the flip :) - bye

10:59 pm

Jacula

I can only think that if she though anything as she fell off the plank, that she wouldn't break the arm all the ops had finally put right. I think he might have brittle bone disesae or something like it. Tjhe breaks she got should not have occurred in a healthy person. Though some anomalies do sometimes happen.

11:05 pm

I'm off too. See you all next grid, UK time.

When I got to her mom's house to pick up an overnight bag (just in case), mom told me they'd released her; so I stopped by the store on the way, picked her up and delivered her, stayed a few minutes to "catch up" on what was happening and told them if she needed to go back any time between now and morning to just give me a call ;)
