1:09 am

MPittore

Two weeks without babble...now that's a tuff row to hoe! (I think that's the saying?)

1:10 am

VolleymomDee

wow... surprised you survived!

1:12 am

jillibus

Hi MPitt!

1:12 am

MPittore

My mom and I went and we just had a great time...

1:12 am

MPittore

Hi Jilli....

1:15 am

MPittore

We visited the site where my brother used to live in Jamul, CA...it was destroyed by the Harris fire in 2007 and although that was sad I retrieved a porcelain duck they bought and three fancy solar lights

1:16 am

VolleymomDee

sweet

1:20 am

flosey

did your brother lose everything MP

1:26 am

PAV3

ok iam at halfway mark...off to turn off roast and watch flick...yep it's late, but tomorrow'll be a good day fer sher

1:27 am

flosey

goodnight Pav

1:27 am

MPittore

Well it was strange...he and his girlfriend just broke up and he had moved to Hemet, CA with our mom he had left some things there...the house and it's contents were a total lost she escaped with a car and two dogs, three horses were fortunately being boarded elsewhere (Poway) and not much else...I hand carried the two items on the plane to give to him....I am sure he will be surprised I found anything...just the meandering stone walkway from the garage up to their deck which they had just completed and was inlaid with beautiful colored stones and glass set in the concrete grout...and the fence and shelter he built for their little shetland pony (Charlie Horse) was left untouched....

1:29 am

VolleymomDee

very sad story mp... so he never rebuilt?

1:29 am

flosey

must have been sad seeing it MP, but fortunate that his (former) girlfriend got away with the dogs and the horses were safe

1:31 am

flosey

beautiful icon picture

1:33 am

jillibus

oh yes, MP -- hadn't seen your icon (had to click on it) -- gorgeous!

1:33 am

MPittore

No he lived with his girlfriend in her house for several years...she couldn't get fire insurance even though he kept clearing more and more of the land even beyond their property lines as required by ins. co.....she still owes the mortgage, property taxes, and California for the fire clean up....we can't locate her but believe she went to live with her brother in Missouri...she will not respond to any attempts to contact her.

1:34 am

jillibus

Oh, that's terrible!

1:35 am

MPittore

Yes Jilli...our ship was tendered right in front of this gorgeous sight....we were so lucky!

1:35 am

flosey

can't imagine having to pay California for fire clean-up -

1:35 am

VolleymomDee

how tragic... had no clue getting insurance there was so impossible... makes my heart hurt ...

1:36 am

flosey

poor girl, what a debt

1:37 am

VolleymomDee

govt bails out unworthy... this just doesn't seem right

1:39 am

jillibus

over halfway...

1:40 am

MPittore

Yes that surprised me also...I met two Dept of Agriculture employees on the site looking for a citrus bug of some type and the woman was picking the freesias that were blooming in the garden...she apologized but I told her I was actually happy to see someone finding something beautiful in the site that had caused so much pain for it's owner. It was like a baby being born to a family that has just experienced a death...a renewal!

1:41 am

flosey

just monkeyed our and 5, new to me

1:43 am

jillibus

our and 5?

1:43 am

VolleymomDee

a good renewal!

1:43 am

flosey

oops, meant ou4 and 5, sorry,

1:44 am

flosey

finger just didn't reach high enough!

1:44 am

jillibus

good monkeying, flosey -- any hints?

1:45 am

flosey

guess it sounds like f

1:46 am

VolleymomDee

I sure hope his girlfriend can get everything sorted out

1:46 am

jillibus

f?

1:46 am

flosey

ou + sounds like f

1:47 am

jillibus

ah, thanks, flosey

1:47 am

flosey

or, call me on the **one

1:47 am

MPittore

Yes she had just sold her business (Healing Point, acupuncture, holistic medicine etc.) and retired and had brought home very expensive chinese herbs etc..and antiques...it was a beautiful view of the Mountains and we could see the lights of Tecate Mexico at night...but there were mountain critters including lions, tarantulas, scorpions, rattlers, etc. but you learn to avoid them...fire ins. and flood ins. is hard to get in many areas of Calif.

1:49 am

VolleymomDee

I had no clue about the insurance issues; I guess with all of their fires, floods, and mud slides, it does make some sense... you would think the govt. would have an insurance option in that case

1:50 am

jillibus

I see there's not def for the ou4, but the 5 is a fairy

1:52 am

flosey

interesting, thanks, ou5 doesn't sound as dainty as fairy

1:53 am

MPittore

Maybe the next bill to work on after Health Care Ins. should be Property Ins....after all it is often the greatest portion of a persons wealth and one of the greatest needs..shelter!

1:53 am

VolleymomDee

fireworks... weird up words

1:53 am

jillibus

it's also a goblin -- sounds more like that ;)

1:53 am

jillibus

YAY dee!!!

1:53 am

flosey

wtg Dee

1:53 am

VolleymomDee

at least for extreme cases

1:54 am

flosey

yes, that sounds more apt

1:55 am

VolleymomDee

hope you all have a great day / eve!!! *poofing with hugs* hope everything works our for your family mp

1:55 am

jillibus

night dee!

1:55 am

flosey

goodnight Dee

1:55 am

VolleymomDee

nite flosey, jili... hugs to you both

1:56 am

MPittore

well....155 left...just piddling around the grid...a little jet lag I guess...night dee and thanks they have both moved on so life goes on....

1:57 am

MPittore

Things can always be worse...you just have to look around to realize that....my dad used to say "I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man that had no feet"...tis true!

1:59 am

flosey

very true, MP

2:00 am

flosey

42 left, I'm off to bed, goodnight all

2:01 am

MPittore

I think I'm ready to poof myself...see you all tomorrow...may you dream pleasant dreams! Poofy!

2:01 am

I think I'm ready to poof myself...see you all tomorrow...may you dream pleasant dreams! Poofy!

3:09 am

sprite

today isn't too bad! Sun shines. And I walked. And no ugly things scheduled for today. And, very important, my babble game and babble friends :)

3:09 am

sprite

thank you rubyfoo :)

3:09 am

rubyfoo

how about the tulips?

3:09 am

jillibus

1:09 am, ruby -- bedtime

3:09 am

sprite

to bed with you, dear jilli. Sleep well and dream even better *hug*

3:10 am

rubyfoo

here, every day there are more, 53 so far (I count them....)

3:10 am

jillibus

hope to see you again soon, sprite, all cheery and chipper

3:10 am

sprite

terra loves biting the flowers off when they wiggle in the wind...

3:11 am

sprite

I try, jilli! If fate would work with me for a bit, it would be easier, grin.

3:11 am

rubyfoo

Ruby used to dig up the bulbs when she was a puppy, but she stopped, fortunately

3:11 am

jillibus

terra must be part deer

3:11 am

rubyfoo

or a big squirrel

3:11 am

sprite

he is! He even jumps like one.

3:11 am

jillibus

oops, PB for me

3:12 am

rubyfoo

hot milk in the pb for good sleep

3:12 am

jillibus

so before I get in any more trouble I'll depart -- my icon is a clue, btw

3:12 am

sprite

jilli, did you see my new mention of you in the profile?

3:12 am

sprite

and a banana

3:13 am

jillibus

must look....(no bananas left)

3:13 am

sprite

awww *snatches banana away from monkey and gives it to jilli*

3:14 am

jillibus

OH my!!! Nothing royal about moi! But thanks!

3:14 am

sprite

you deserve it. You are the true inspirator and your writeups are always so interesting.

3:15 am

jillibus

Well, I just enjoy myself

3:15 am

sprite

not just yourself.

3:15 am

jillibus

lol!

3:16 am

sprite

:)

3:16 am

jillibus

now I shall float off to bed on a pink cloud...*poof*

3:16 am

Night Jill

3:17 am

3:17 am

jillibus

night all! *repoof*

3:17 am

rubyfoo

night jilli

3:17 am

herinfernallady

well that took a bit of time

3:17 am

sprite

did it work in the end?

3:19 am

herinfernallady

sort of but not really

3:19 am

herinfernallady

well enough to be usefull

3:19 am

sprite

ok that is all that counts

3:20 am

herinfernallady

It is.,

3:20 am

rubyfoo

will your next career be in advertising, herin?

3:20 am

herinfernallady

no legal

3:21 am

rubyfoo

see you a little later, husband is back

3:21 am

rubyfoo

aah, smart herin!

3:21 am

rubyfoo

bye sprite, see you later

3:21 am

sprite

bye rubyfoo

3:21 am

herinfernallady

wouldn't say that but ok

3:21 am

herinfernallady

Bye RUby

3:26 am

rubyfoo

back for a f ew minutes

3:26 am

sprite

wb again

3:26 am

rubyfoo

he is out sweeping the driveway because it is covered with sunflower seed husks from our resident birds which he feeds all day

3:27 am

sprite

aw cute

3:27 am

rubyfoo

I noticed yesterday that many of the seeds had germinated, so I'm going to plant a bunch of them in the bottom of the garden

3:27 am

sprite

sunflowers always make me smile

3:28 am

rubyfoo

he has many birds that he feeds all winter, a nice hobby, and also a little fish pond which he tends with ordinary goldfish, many of which are now over a foot long. They started out as inch-long "feeders"

3:28 am

sprite

lovely hobby

3:29 am

rubyfoo

yes, anything that keeps him outdoors is good!

3:29 am

sprite

lol

3:30 am

rubyfoo

this is a nice grid, lots to be built from the et4/6

3:31 am

sprite

oh yes. 2/3 found, most of the biggies, and still going. Much easier than yesterday's.

3:31 am

rubyfoo

I wouldn't call it easy, still not at half, but it's fun anyway

3:32 am

rubyfoo

I found the 9 on my own, but not the 8!

3:32 am

rubyfoo

and jilli ate the last banana, so no monkeys!

3:32 am

sprite

*lures monkeys with peanuts*

3:32 am

sprite

same here rubyfoo, 8 still to be found.

3:33 am

rubyfoo

good idea

3:33 am

rubyfoo

yesterday's was a bear!

3:34 am

herinfernallady

Have to share : http://tinyurl.com/ygge44w

3:35 am

sprite

I loved yesterday's, but it took a lot of time. And I had to use the list for the last 14.

3:35 am

sprite

oh lady that is soooo sweet!

3:36 am

herinfernallady

I just love the kitties face

3:36 am

rubyfoo

how do you do that while still in babble?

3:36 am

herinfernallady

what? that is a tiny url go to a new page

3:36 am

sprite

I open a new browser window

3:37 am

sprite

we are darn close to recuperate today. How is that for a phantom?

3:38 am

rubyfoo

I found it, but it closed babble. I seem to be incapable of opening two things at once; that's why I don't list!

3:39 am

sprite

can't you open 2 browsers?

3:39 am

Sally-catlover

Hi all, hi ruby. If you go to the file menu at the top of your browser, it should have the option Open New Window, or Open New Tab. I always just open a new tab.

3:39 am

rubyfoo

*blushing* I don't know how. Fortunately, my son, the expert, is coming in May and will show me what I need to do

3:39 am

sprite

hi Sally

3:39 am

marigold

pe h

3:39 am

rubyfoo

hello sally

3:39 am

sprite

are you on a windows machine?

3:40 am

sprite

lol, busted, marigold

3:40 am

rubyfoo

the problem is that all the instructions in windows are in French...

3:40 am

rubyfoo

hi marigold

3:40 am

herinfernallady

can you change it to english?

3:40 am

Sally-catlover

Do you have A list of menus along the top of your browser window?

3:41 am

sprite

rubyfoo, do you have an Internet Explorer icon on your desktop?

3:41 am

sprite

lol, ok, too many questions, I think. I will be quiet.

3:42 am

rubyfoo

hah, I just found something under "fichier" which said "nouvel onglet" That may be it. I'll try it later. Thank you, ladies, for trying tohelp this dinosaur!

3:43 am

Sally-catlover

That will be the one, ruby. If you look it should show the short cut to it, which I would normally use. On a windows machine, it might be Alt N or Alt T.

3:43 am

rubyfoo

that is very helpful! ty ty

3:43 am

rubyfoo

I never looked at that before

3:44 am

sprite

hot keys rock

3:44 am

rubyfoo

how did you all learn all that stuff?

3:45 am

sprite

trying, reading and never being afraid to play

3:45 am

rubyfoo

I would say that I started late, but there are many other "mature" women on here who are all more adept than I!

3:45 am

Sally-catlover

I guess that onglet might be tab, having just tried to look up the translation! On my firefox, I can have lots of tabs all open at once and just click between them. I can also have separate windows open which I do if I use lickety, just have a narrow window to one side.

3:45 am

rubyfoo

I guess I'm a little intimidated by the computer itself

3:46 am

rubyfoo

perhaps, by dusk, I'll be able to use a list!

3:46 am

sprite

yup, and same can be done with internet explorer nowadays.

3:46 am

Sally-catlover

It's only a machine ruby, man-made at that. No need to be afraid of it!!

3:47 am

sprite

actually, as long as you don't change important settings, nothing much can go wrong. If somehow you get really stuck, just reboot the machine and start again.

3:48 am

Sally-catlover

I have a Mac, so can't use lickety expert, but I can do as good as. If I use lickety and it's a huge grid that's the only way to keep track. I have a doc on my desktop and I paste the printable lickety clues in that, keep it narrow and to one side of my browser window, then as I go down the list I can either just scroll down or delete the sections I have done. Makes it much easier. Sounds complicated but isn't.

3:48 am

rubyfoo

I am always afraid of losing my files; my son gave me a big lecture on Sunday about getting an external harddrive and backing up what is important to me

3:49 am

sprite

and if you like you could download the Lickety browser for babble, the Babble Expert. It will give you the list at the side in the same window/tab.

3:49 am

Sally-catlover

He's right. I do an automatic back-up every night.

3:49 am

rubyfoo

onto an external drive?

3:50 am

hurshy

but you don't lose files because of stuff you do (unless you like, open bad emails or go to bad websites with viruses), you lose files because of random stuff going wrong.

3:50 am

sprite

backing up is essential. And totally easy, especially if you are only concerned about files. Just copy them to an external disk. They come plug-and-play, you will see it is easy.

3:50 am

rubyfoo

I have 11 years of letters on here which are like a journal of my life and the lives of my friends

3:50 am

Sally-catlover

Yes onto an external drive. There's no point in backing up onto your normal hard drive because if that goes pear-shaped, you've lost your backup as well. I use an automatic program, there are lots out there.

3:51 am

sprite

burn them onto a CD and make a backup on an external drive. Text files are very small.

3:51 am

rubyfoo

ok, that's my next project! now if I would just get moving....lol

3:51 am

Sally-catlover

Well you could at least copy them onto a memory stick which is the easiest thing of all.

3:51 am

hurshy

i think a lot of older people remember only too well when that was not the case, and have never adjusted to the fact that these things are much more idiot proof now. sure, in DOS days, you could really screw up your machine by making a mistake, but now?

3:52 am

sprite

one thing at a time, rubyfoo, at least that is what works best for me. We can always do one step :)

3:52 am

Sally-catlover

lol, yes I used to use DOS! and remember writing stuff in BASIC for my son. Showing my age now.

3:52 am

sprite

lol yes hursh, I remember the DOS days! AND the mess I could make with it.

3:52 am

hurshy

i used to write stuff in BASIC too and i'm not old :)

3:53 am

sprite

but actually, that was a nice language to start learning in. It was logical and rather easy.

3:53 am

Sally-catlover

But you know I think it was a good background, because at least I understand what is happening and how the machine works (a bit). A lot of people now can only understand if it has a prett picture!

3:53 am

sprite

exactly Sally

3:54 am

Sally-catlover

But like you sprite, I have never been afraid to experiement and do a "what happens if I do that?". It's the only way to learn.

3:55 am

sprite

yup and it is fun that way

3:55 am

rubyfoo

hello, phone, but now I'm back. I'm going to byuy the external hard drive and back up my files. Then I can rest easy

3:56 am

rubyfoo

and alf!

3:56 am

sprite

good decision :)

3:56 am

rubyfoo

half* duh

3:56 am

herinfernallady

Sally I love your cat

3:57 am

Sally-catlover

It's worth learning the short cuts ruby. Have a look in your help files, or google Windows short cuts, and print out the list and keep it. There are some I use just all the time without thinking. I am lucky I can touch type, and it's far quicker for me to use a short cut than the mouse.

3:58 am

Sally-catlover

ty herin, she's a sweety. Curled up beside me now.

3:58 am

herinfernallady

aww

3:59 am

sprite

remember display write? Only had hot keys and no visible menu.

3:59 am

sprite

talking about dinosaurs, lol

4:00 am

herinfernallady

awww you should see this the kitty has just demanded someone play with him

4:01 am

Sally-catlover

no, don't remember that one. Trying to remember what I used in earnest after son's Sinclair Spectrum. Had a green screen, I remember that.

4:02 am

rubyfoo

too funny, I missed all that, was busy typing away

4:02 am

herinfernallady

I believe the time has come that no one will get Run Dos Run

4:02 am

word perfect mybe?

4:02 am

rubyfoo

hahah

4:02 am

sprite

lol lady, indeed.

4:02 am

Sally-catlover

yes, that's it sprite, think so.

4:02 am

rubyfoo

word perfect is where ai started, but only used it for typing letters and invoices when I was working

4:03 am

rubyfoo

time to start lunch. Thank you for all your suggestions, everybody

4:03 am

rubyfoo

see you later

4:04 am

Sally-catlover

see you later, but probably time for me to go and do some gardening now.

4:04 am

sprite

I have even used a Wang machine, that was already prehistoric when I started but we had a client who wanted us to use it. It had 'floppy disks' the size of music albums (the black ones!)

4:04 am

sprite

bye rubyfoo and Sally

4:05 am

Sally-catlover

not quite gone yet sprite. Want to get to half way.

4:05 am

sprite

I finally found my last E, darn word!

4:06 am

sprite

here is the def, lolllll:
a suspended batten or plate of wood or brass pierced with holes through which the cords of a crowfoot are rove to suspend an awning

4:06 am

Sally-catlover

what are the stats on it, sprite?

4:07 am

sprite

eu7/40

4:07 am

Sally-catlover

ty, thinking

4:07 am

herinfernallady

those C words are driving me nuts

4:09 am

sprite

I had to resort to a2z to find it. And now I see it comes from a dutch word! Amazing things one learns in babble.

4:10 am

herinfernallady

thank goodness no more c words

4:10 am

sprite

yay lady

4:11 am

Sally-catlover

Ah! It's an alt spelling of the up 6/27, which I had to monkey.

4:11 am

sprite

oh, and it has an U alt spelling

4:11 am

sprite

lol, great minds...

4:13 am

Sally-catlover

lol, just got an fo 4 which is a fish, and considering that's all we talk about in the chog ...

4:14 am

sprite

in the 'old' days, every grid had a fish in it. We had fun spotting it. Now we only slap eachother with them ;)

4:15 am

sprite

fireflies!

4:15 am

Sally-catlover

well done sprite!

4:17 am

good grid and good company. Thanks all :)
Have a great day and/or pleasant night.

Office this AM, and Clinic this afternoon. OR Tuesday, WEdnesday and Thursday

6:46 am

No days off other than some weekends?

6:47 am

Scrabbler

Do you have a specialty or special focus, Bubba?

6:47 am

Usually only work Fri AM in the office so off, after that, only clininc oncew a month or so. But I am a believer in vacations to recharge and renew

Not me, I work, but I like to take my time when I can.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Aha. My 16 yr old nephew is healing from fx of tibial tubercle/growth plate when pushing off to do lay-up in basketball. Screw was removed due to persistent pain. MRI = nl. Concern of complex regional pain syndrome now.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

TY for that up6--odd word

6:51 am

Scrabbler

Now I am looking for the one that you clued, Lynxxx.

6:51 am

bubba218

CRPS is so hard to diagnose, except of course for lawyers, who see it everywhere. A good pain management person should look him over and decide without preconceived notions as to the cause of the pain.

6:51 am

6:53 am

Scrabbler

And, of course, there is the issue of secondary gain for a teenager, which is my suspicion. There is concern though by 2nd opinion NS consult that the peroneal nerve may be compressed by scar tissue. EMG showed peroneal nerve impairment.

6:53 am

lynxxx

I'd better get going, bye all

6:54 am

Scrabbler

Bye Lynxxx...bedtime?

6:55 am

bubba218

Very difficult when there is nerve entrapment. Is it a neuropraxi or is it something more permeanent like a axontomesis or neurotomesis?

6:55 am

Scrabbler

Pain is major issue, and hyperesthesia of skin.

6:56 am

Scrabbler

He is on Lyrica and if no improvement in 2 mo---> surgery to explore area around the peroneal nerve.

6:57 am

bubba218

Targeted nerve blocks areeven an epidural-type injection may help to locate and differentiate the diagnosis.

6:57 am

bubba218

Does the MR demonstrate any thickening or scarring around the nerve?

6:57 am

Scrabbler

Topical lidocaine patch helped. Difficulty is a kid that hates school, wants to skip school, get attention, whine, complain, etc.

6:59 am

bubba218

Hard to say in kids, they thought my daughters headaches were duee to disloke of scholl, until they found out theat she had neurological Lyme disease, IV Rochephan was curative

6:59 am

Scrabbler

MRI was nl but EMG showed problem with peroneal nerve. He is seeing ortho, phys med MD and now NS.

6:59 am

Scrabbler

Yes, even dramatic, whining teens/patients can have a real disease.

7:00 am

bubba218

Did he get any injections of local with steroid around the areaa of pain, to see if the inflammatory respondse can be quieted

7:00 am

Scrabbler

TY for input, Bubba. Sorry to take up your time here.

7:01 am

crosshair

cwossy loves it when you talk the talk scwabbys:)

7:01 am

bubba218

That is why I'd rather treat an old person than a whinny kid, especially with the overprotective parent hanging arohnd. You never know who hurts more the kid or the parent.

7:01 am

Scrabbler

Nope--topical patch, then Lyrica. Older brother says, "He is fine. He walks fine. He is in no pain when we go to a movie and out to dinner."

7:01 am

bubba218

See you all, go to go back to the salt mines. Later everyone

7:02 am

Scrabbler

My sister is overprotective and dramatic....and a lawyer. Argh.

7:02 am

Scrabbler

Bye Bubba!

7:02 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy. Would you like me to use more medical words?

7:02 am

bubba218

Before you do anything invasvive, I wound have a shrink talk to him.

7:03 am

Scrabbler

Metabolic acidosis. Nephrolithiasis. Syringomyelia. Leukocytosis. And that was just yesterday's work.

7:04 am

Scrabbler

The emotional stuff in this kid/family is very complex.

7:05 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, ski hills still open?

7:06 am

way back in the day when my sis was 8 or 9,she used to complain of headaches,we used to think it was just from hearing other adults complain of headaches and was not an issue,turned out she had a inter cranial fluid build up and it had to be drained ,snuck up on everyone

7:06 am

nope all done now

hello guernsey

7:17 am

annie:)

7:17 am

Scrabbler

NBC's Today show is featuring things to splurge on for your home--hardwood floors, patio furniture, appliances, grills. I certainly have no money for splurging.

7:17 am

Anniebrook

crossy! How are you and Elegant?

7:17 am

Good Enough

morning peeps

7:17 am

Scrabbler

Hi GE

7:18 am

crosshair

splurging? i hope to one day get rid of the fire pit in the kitchen and try one of them new fangled oven thingies

7:18 am

Good Enough

um this grid looks yummy

7:18 am

crosshair

sort of recovered annie:)

7:18 am

Anniebrook

I splurged Wed. and bought a flat screen TV. Someone from the "Geek Squad" is coming today to hook everything up.

7:18 am

Scrabbler

Good for you, Crossy. And then indoor plumbing will be next.

7:18 am

crosshair

:)

7:19 am

Scrabbler

It's a tough one, GE.

7:19 am

Anniebrook

and electricity! too

7:19 am

Scrabbler

Wow, Annie. I haven't done that yet.

7:19 am

Good Enough

oh, i have been misled?

7:19 am

Good Enough

by my own assumptions?

7:19 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, I am looking forward to getting rid of the relic I have now.

7:20 am

Scrabbler

Some grids are deceiving.

7:20 am

crosshair

while you have them there,get them to wall mount it.that is the tough part

7:21 am

Anniebrook

crossy, This is only a 26" TV that is going into a wall unit. No new fangled stuff for me.

7:21 am

Scrabbler

I am so frugal, Annie, that I feel ill when I spend $, especially on myself. I would love a superlight kayak (32 lbs instead of 48) but that will be $2500.

7:21 am

crosshair

get it scrabby,if you wait till your 90 you may not want it lol

7:22 am

Anniebrook

Oh Scrabbs, You do so much good. You deserve the superlight kayak. 16 lbs is a great difference in shlepping.

7:23 am

crosshair

within reason ive learned not to wait for the good things in live,cause this time shall not pass again.or do not buy the kayak,and next month get run over by a bus sort of thing

7:23 am

Scrabbler

I have a wish list---hardwood or laminate flooring, kayak, furniture....but I have to get my nephew through college and then grad school.

7:23 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, can you come here and paint my cathedral ceiling?

7:23 am

crosshair

kayak scrabbs...you can walk on sawdust for a while longer lol

7:23 am

Anniebrook

HARDWOOD.

7:24 am

Anniebrook

Crossy, I did not mean to holler at you.

7:24 am

crosshair

if you get me scaffolding and a compressor and a nice paint sprayer,yes

7:24 am

Scrabbler

Hardwood will last forever but will cost more. I must save $.

7:25 am

crosshair

lol scrabbs,live in your shack and buy the kayak:)))

7:25 am

Scrabbler

I will call a painter. I love to paint but I cannot do this ceiling.

7:25 am

Anniebrook

The nephew you are putting through school, is he the one who lives with you?

7:26 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Annie. He is 22 and has been here since age 16. He wants to become a forensic psychologist.

7:26 am

bichon

Hi and good morning. The heat spell has broken here in CT

7:26 am

Scrabbler

He is away this week, visiting gf at her college, and I miss him.

7:26 am

Scrabbler

Hi Bichon!

7:26 am

crosshair

just imagine the ease of those 6 portages with the lighter weight load,envision how it glides almost like a feather through the fog hanging on that small still lake at dawn...;))

7:27 am

Anniebrook

What a great profession. Lucky kid he has you.

7:27 am

crosshair

howdy bichon

7:27 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, crossy is making a good point. LOL

7:27 am

Scrabbler

Everytime I carry my kayak or lift it on to car rack I say, "Get a light one!"

7:27 am

crosshair

i know annie,im just messing with her

7:28 am

Good Enough

perhaps the nephew you are putting thru school could paint your ceiling

7:28 am

Anniebrook

Then as the Nike ad says----Do it!

7:28 am

crosshair

there u go

7:28 am

Scrabbler

I have been doing my research on the light kayaks.

7:28 am

bichon

Go for it Scrabbler. You may regret the money spent, but not the enjoyment

7:28 am

crosshair

lol nike..do it! tiger did! lol

7:29 am

Scrabbler

But it is a cathedral ceiling--20 feet high at highest point of home.

7:29 am

crosshair

i agree bichon,to hell with the hardwood for now

7:29 am

crosshair

7:29 am

Scrabbler

7:29 am

crosshair

yuppers

7:29 am

bichon

7:33 am

crosshair

i was bending over to tie my kids shoes ok lol

7:33 am

Scrabbler

Once my friend came to my office when she had pneumonia, and I gave her a Barbie sticker for being a good girl.

7:33 am

crosshair

lolk

7:34 am

bichon

you give out Barbies stickers? I know some Mom's who wouldn't like that

7:34 am

PinnyPoppins

I'm always giving myself 'Good Job' stickers when I play with my niece (she is 2. I am 32)

7:35 am

Scrabbler

We have a large selection. I dislike girlie themes immensely---Barbie, princess stuff.

7:35 am

Scrabbler

Hi Pinny

7:35 am

crosshair

well give them a ken sticker then

7:35 am

PinnyPoppins

Hi Scrabbler, Crossy, Bichon et al

7:35 am

bichon

My d.i.l. would be the type who dislikes Barbie stickers, but my granddaughter only wants to wear undies with a prince theme

7:35 am

crosshair

howdy pinny

7:36 am

Scrabbler

And I dislike it when a toddler goes bonkers for Sponge Bob. When kids know all of these characters it means they are watching too much TV.

7:36 am

crosshair

7:36 am

guernseygirl

Pfffth. Sounds ancient. No wonder no one's ever heard of it.

9:02 am

Haz1558

I've been fine, thanks. I did the grid earlier today and am now procrastinating a bit.

9:03 am

72 Temple Owl

i am procrastinating a lot. and my peeps are ancient history, not as much fun since i gave up babble for holy week.

9:03 am

Haz1558

Did you feel better or worse once you came back to babble?

9:04 am

Hi TO! I am getting the feeling that you are spending too much time babbling and not enough for praying and such

9:07 am

Haz1558

I'd love to know when the revolution happened that made TVs all slimline. It's extraordinary that they can fit everything in.

9:08 am

Anniebrook

Where are they going to put all the doodads that hook up cable and DVD's?

9:09 am

Haz1558

It's anybody's guess, Annie. All you have to do is let them get on with it.

9:09 am

Haz1558

It's the reading of the manuals that always throws me. They assume that you know what they're talking about.

9:09 am

9:20 am

72 Temple Owl

9:20 am

Haz1558

Did they catch the perpetrators?

9:21 am

72 Temple Owl

9:21 am

Anniebrook

No one was caught as she did not see him. He pushed her from behind and ran.

9:21 am

72 Temple Owl

was this near your home?

9:22 am

Anniebrook

Owl, maybe one day when I am able to. It would be nice.

9:22 am

Anniebrook

Owl, Yes, it was near my home.

9:23 am

Haz1558

I hope the coward gets his just deserts eventually.

9:23 am

Anniebrook

I pray for the same, Haz.

9:23 am

72 Temple Owl

Sue_777

Hi, was reading your writtings and my prayers are with you friend . I work with people with drug addictions and so many times they rob to get their drugs. Its hard to understand but they really do need our prayers

9:28 am

Judi

I haven't been there in ages, TO. I'm afraid my hip wouldn't appreciate all the walking required.

9:29 am

Anniebrook

thanks sue. the police did mention drug addiction as one of the reasons for the mugging.

9:29 am

gramma

I highlighted it and clicked search. Youtube comes up; but, says no matches. Does it have a name I could search under?

9:29 am

72 Temple Owl

ok time to go SOMEWHERE. nice to chat with all

9:30 am

Anniebrook

Owl, not working today?

9:30 am

gramma

bye TO have fun somewhere.

9:30 am

Haz1558

Bye TO. I'd better procrastinate no longer and get moving.

9:30 am

72 Temple Owl

gramma, do you see where the tope window of this screen gives the url hettp://www.playbabble.com? go to another tab and paste in the link you have copied to that area

9:31 am

72 Temple Owl

no annie. i do miss the pace of being away though, i am bored and my job ended today and i don't know where i will be placed

9:31 am

Haz1558

Annie, make sure and enjoy that new TV, but don't watch it too much. You don't want to turn into the sort of woman who becomes addicted to looking at a screen.....

9:31 am

Anniebrook

Owl, If you are not working get on Amtrak and go to MOMA ( just a suggestion).

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

have spent last two weekends in nnj. not a fan to go today

9:32 am

Sue_777

It's very hard for some of them to change. They hide in their addiction

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

haz - DO NOT use the a word. we can all quit anytime.

9:32 am

Haz1558

Of course we can! It's a mild attachment, a transitory fondness only.

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

watch the video. language not too bad

9:33 am

Anniebrook

Haz, I do not abuse TV watching (thank goodness) not a soap opera fan either.
The screen that I am addicted to is the Babble screen.

9:33 am

Haz1558

It's a wonder I'm not struck down.

9:33 am

Anniebrook

Transitory fondness..I like that.

9:33 am

gramma

Got it, now to watch it. ty

9:34 am

Haz1558

Yes, babble is just a wee phase we're going through.

9:34 am

72 Temple Owl

* puts on foil hat with lightening rod*

9:34 am

Haz1558

Okay, off I go back to real life. Good to talk to you all, hope to see you tomorrow!

rubyfoo

so one on yahoo (this one) and the other on IE?

12:38 pm

Riverdance

i have a large monitor here at work so I can see both but at home I need to flip back and forth

rubyfoo you can open up 2 IE windows click on File/New window

12:39 pm

Riverdance

if you minimise each window you can then adjust the width of each by dragging in te edges using the little balck arrows

8:23 pm

Riverdance

8:24 pm

Mom

8:24 pm

8:36 pm

LeslieAnn

night mom, thanks for the help

8:37 pm

Jacula

Ha! I know that feeling. Mine daughter's been left home nearly 2 years now, but, since she has iffy internet access, she often comes home, commandeers my computer and starts 'farming'. (Farmville on Facebook).:-((

8:38 pm

Jacula

If it's not that, it's her getting her e-mails from Uni tutors or printing out reams of stuff for her dissertation. I can't really say 'NO' to that, can I?

8:39 pm

Jacula

I just wish she'd learn that you can use 'fast draft' mode to print out most things BECAUSE IT DOESN'T USE SO MUCH VERY EXPENSIVE INK!

8:39 pm

Jacula

Ooh! I feel better now after yelling that. LOL

8:40 pm

lynxxx

I just love now how you can get a printer for half the price of a cartridge

8:40 pm

8:41 pm

Jacula

Oh, so I was not alone. *feels comforted*

8:41 pm

Scrabbler

Bye Jac.

8:42 pm

Jacula

Hi Scrabbs.

8:42 pm

Scrabbler

I am checking in before I go to bed. And it is very late for you.

8:43 pm

Jacula

lynxx is right about the printers and the ink cartridges. Those refills don't work, btw. It all gets clogged up.

8:43 pm

Scrabbler

8:43 pm

redturtlehead

Scrabbler

I am sick--fever, body aches, dizzy.

8:44 pm

Jacula

Scrabbs - now you sound like my uncle from Canada who asks me something or sends me something and then asks me if it isn't way past my bedtime when I answer him.

8:44 pm

Scrabbler

be5 = type of tr4

8:44 pm

redturtlehead

lynxxx

congrats leslie

8:47 pm

Jacula

I just have a 'thing' about people telling me when I should or should not be sleeping.

8:47 pm

Scrabbler

Oh, you don't have to sleep. I am just surprised that you are still awake.

8:47 pm

Jacula

Well done LeslieA.

8:48 pm

Pinikula

hi all...here for a little bit...everyone done?

8:48 pm

redturtlehead

no sleeping until i do!

8:48 pm

Jacula

Scrabbs - I work at and from home and am lucky enough to be able to keep my own hours. The waking and sleeping hours may vary, but I enjoy the freedom it gives me.

8:49 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Pini. 97 left. And my OCD dictates that I must finish with even numbers, 0 or 5.

8:49 pm

Pinikula

I hear ya, scrabs! 74 more to go here...

8:49 pm

redturtlehead

98 left here still trying to eat dinner.

8:50 pm

Scrabbler

OK, I am done at 112/96. Time to crawl into my nest.

8:50 pm

Pinikula

what happened to 0 or 5?

8:51 pm

redturtlehead

feel better scrabbs

8:51 pm

Scrabbler

I have even numbers so that qualifies.

8:51 pm

Pinikula

* sigh of relief * ok...in that case, sleep well!!!

8:52 pm

Scrabbler

I hope I am better tomorrow as my NJ sister is coming here for a 6 day stay.

8:52 pm

Jacula

Dormez bien, Scrabbs.

8:52 pm

Scrabbler

I have to clean, shop, get her bedroom + bathroom ready.

8:52 pm

welki

hi everyone *still panhandling for fishville friends*

8:52 pm

Pinikula

You'll be better, scrabs...I have faith!

8:52 pm

Scrabbler

Good night buddies!

8:52 pm

Pinikula

hi welki ;)

8:53 pm

redturtlehead

hey welki, the only fishville I play is maintaining my tank in the living room.

8:53 pm

Jacula

I may or may not do the Saturday grid. Depends how big it is. Probably see you all again in a week's time.

8:53 pm

Pinikula

welki, I'll go to fishville if you come to my petville ;)

8:53 pm

welki

she's your sister, scrabs ... she'll manage without you doing all that (get better)

8:53 pm

Pinikula

have a great holiday, jac!

8:53 pm

redturtlehead

jacula, are you going to the bahamas?

8:53 pm

welki

how time consuming is it, pini?

8:53 pm

Pinikula

not very if you don't play it!

8:54 pm

welki

is your name the same on fb?

8:54 pm

Jacula

My Beloved was reading an article on Yahoo news earlier about a 10-year-old kid having spent about £900 on his mother's credit card on extras for Farmville on Facebook.

8:54 pm

welki

ohhhh my! i haven't paid a penny. (too cheap)

8:54 pm

Jacula

red - no. To North Devon, UK.

8:55 pm

Pinikula

holy cow, jac...that's an expensive "unknown" hobby...

8:55 pm

Pinikula

I don't pay either...

8:55 pm

redturtlehead

oh my, have a good time!

8:55 pm

welki

(that's 1383.00 US dollars!)

8:55 pm

redturtlehead

its insane...

8:55 pm

Pinikula

OMG!!! I'd fall apart at that!

8:55 pm

Jacula

I just wonder how the young son knew hw to use the credit card, etc., etc.

8:56 pm

welki

does a petville neighbor have to play fishville?

8:57 pm

Pinikula

not at all, welki...but I need one more neighbor to "build" my yard...

8:57 pm

Pinikula

good question, jac

8:57 pm

welki

i wonder if it's the same for fishville ... is your name the same on fb?

8:58 pm

Pinikula

you should be able to find me under my nickname (I hope)

8:58 pm

Pinikula

if not, find me thru email (same nickname @ yahoo.com)

8:58 pm

Jacula

Apparently, her bank (HBSC) will refund her if she brings charges against her son for fraud. (Obiously, since it will jeopardise any future job prospects he might have, she's not going to do that. Facebook and the game site won't be recompensing her either.

8:59 pm

Pinikula

what a painful lesson, jac :(

8:59 pm

redturtlehead

dont they expunge childrens records in the UK?

8:59 pm

Jacula

I don't play any of those games on FB. Just word games.

8:59 pm

redturtlehead

its the same as that 12 yr old that continually texted to raise money for haiti, thinking it was free...

8:59 pm

Jacula

Red - not soon enough and not completely.

8:59 pm

Pinikula

I play word games and only 2 non-word games

9:00 pm

welki

pini or pinikula?

9:00 pm

Pinikula

the latter

9:00 pm

Jacula

I play match 3 or moere games on there and talk to my family.

9:01 pm

Pinikula

I avoid any family other than my dau's

9:01 pm

welki

nope, can't find you

9:01 pm

Pinikula

ok...hold on...

9:02 pm

Jacula

Facebook has been getting a lot of stick in the UK press for refusing to add the panic button for kids who think they are being targeted by paedophiles.

9:02 pm

Pinikula

are you friends with other babblers (I know, dumb question) like Stid?

9:02 pm

Jacula

Apparently BEBO and other sites have added this button.

9:02 pm

redturtlehead

I sort of hate to admit it, but I don't like the idea of kids hanging about on Facebook...

9:03 pm

Pinikula

I've never heard of a panick button...will have to read more about it!

9:03 pm

Pinikula

me either, red!

9:03 pm

Pinikula

-k

9:03 pm

welki

not stid, but with atalante

9:03 pm

Jacula

I asked my stepdaughter, who uses BEBO, if it was a button that could be used to malicously and falsely accuse people. She wasn't sure.

9:04 pm

redturtlehead

I know thats odd, but, it seems to be a better site for adults. even with the silly games.

9:04 pm

redturtlehead

Well for certain Jacula, you can push that button when you feel like it, and the shame of any sort of investigation would possbly ruin peoples credibility...

9:04 pm

Pinikula

ok...let me look

9:05 pm

welki

oh .. and jmc

9:06 pm

Pinikula

me, too...

9:06 pm

Pinikula

(both)

9:06 pm

Jacula

But we sometimes ger hordes of kids in here. Uusually if a teacher has given them the site as a class exercise. In which case 8 out 10 fool around and make a mess of thee chog. Many more come back to the site during school holidays just to troll it.

9:07 pm

welki

if you look at jmc's friends, you'll find me easily .. initials d.a.

9:07 pm

redturtlehead

oh no, i ment FB, not babble.

9:07 pm

Pinikula

ok, welki...looking (my initials are JS)

9:07 pm

Jacula

But, we do get maybe 3 out of 20 who want tp understand the game and play it properly.

9:09 pm

9:10 pm

Jacula

Anyway, you two enjoy your chat and any Babbling left and I'll see you in a week or so.

10:33 pm

harpjane

I'm beginning to see a pattern in these words.....

10:33 pm

wht

I've noticed that the same words will often get asked for all day.

10:33 pm

Pinikula

I find cluing interesting in itself...I can see a clue and not "get it," but see it later and kick myself!

10:34 pm

Pinikula

eu + F sound + fish eggs

10:34 pm

Ormal

hiya grem. I think the cluing is redundant cuz some of the words are crazy out there.

10:34 pm

gremlinn

e + up6

10:34 pm

Pinikula

remove the E to get the first u6

10:34 pm

harpjane

thanks, new word to me

10:34 pm

gremlinn

I think it's due a bit to lag

10:35 pm

eu + fr4 but replace the f with other letters to make the same sound

10:35 pm

Ormal

that too. :D

10:35 pm

Pinikula

still waiting for some ou's?? pretty please?

10:36 pm

Ormal

those ou's are kinda like an f sound, then plural: I stubbed my toe and said ou**

ou + the middle letters from the eu

Pinikula

ooooooops!

10:36 pm

gremlinn

I'm not sure it's a plural though, I'll look it up

10:36 pm

Pinikula

sorry...didn't mean to miss 'em!

10:36 pm

wht

The 5 has a vowel on the end.

10:37 pm

gremlinn

it appears to be an archaic variation of "oaf" or "elf"

10:37 pm

wht

Good luck fellow babblers. Bed time for me.

10:37 pm

Pinikula

thx for the help, wht...sleep well
