I have a question. If your kid stole a mobile phone and admitted, would you a) go on Judge Judy and say my kid shouldn't pay for the stuff he did on the phone or b) slap your kid upside the head and make him pay for the costs of the phone stolen?

12:23 am

I read the article Crossy posted and there is a lot of good info in there
12:23 am
herinfernallady

Well this girl has her business address listed but it is her home adress
12:24 am
MLFAN17

a lot of people do things like that on fb herin
12:24 am
herinfernallady

I mean if i ran a business from home it would be my name and a business mobile number different to one listed in a phone book
12:25 am
jillibus

nbt -- not exactly an everyday word, that ob6
12:25 am
MLFAN17

herin but if its a home base business then i guess you would have to unless you got a different phone line and number
12:26 am

12:27 am
herinfernallady

Opps What I mean is I would have my business number listed under business and I wouldn't have my home address on the webpage. Maybe a PO box
12:27 am
meliae

sounds like another more common word that starts with the same 2 letters
12:27 am
westford

what does the ca start with?
12:27 am
jillibus

I object to the ob6 having one letter different
12:27 am

12:33 am

usually not the first time... but yes, the second... and then each time tends to worsen slightly

you have to have been exposed before to get the reaction... so usually occurs second dose

1:22 am
herinfernallady

West no they didn't the bureaucrats didn't take the dogs of them. All 59 were shot and burned in the middle of the night. That is the clean details. My friend wont tell me the details or the pictures (she is involved in the raids) as she knows I will go and do something bad to these people

It was raining last night but had stopped when I went out to smell the air last night - the sky was clear and the stars were so brilliant and for about 5 mins there was no sound of traffic just the odd drop of water running off the plants and the air smelt so sweet and fresh.
2:03 am
herinfernallady

Chic this is the combo my friend feeds her arthritic ridden dog. All human grade pills: Daily Glucosamine/Chondroiten supplements, Daily Fish Oil Capsules, Daily Immune Support tablets She says it works a treat for pup and something human docs recommended to her for her arthritis.

2:07 am

any chance of getting a small lift at your pool, chic? There are very simple ones that might do the trick for you. Moving in warm water is probably good for your knee anyway.

but the english version by Terry Jacks was not the first. From wiki: Earlier recordings had been released by The Kingston Trio, the British band The Fortunes in 1968 and by Pearls Before Swine in 1970/71.

2:30 am
sprite

nope, not trusted at all. I see here a later version of the song that says:
Adieu, Francoise, my trusted wife, without you I'd have had a lonely life.
You cheated lots of times but then, I forgave you in the end though your lover was my friend.
Adieu, Francoise, it's hard to die when all the birds are singing in the sky. Now that spring is in the air
With your lovers ev'rywhere; just be careful, I'll be there.
2:31 am
sprite

which is closer to the original
2:31 am

2:46 am
westford

2:46 am
gortmold

2:47 am
gortmold

westford

I saw that he was flown home
2:58 am
westford

the young boy who survived the plane crash
2:58 am
sprite

let me check
3:01 am
sprite

yes, last saturday he arrived. They have chosen a military airport and drove him in a blinded ambulance to the hospital
3:01 am
sprite

he is doing relatively well.
3:01 am
westford

that's really good to hear
3:02 am
westford

so hard for a child to bear though
3:03 am
sprite

impossible to bear, I think. He will have a lot of help here, but trauma like this... he has a hell of a battle to do.
3:04 am
westford

we can only hope those closest to him will not let him feel guilty
3:05 am
sprite

or at least will be willing to tell him time and time again he isn't guilty.
3:05 am
westford

yes
3:06 am
westford

I'd like to think his last memories of his parents and his brother were joyous ones
3:06 am
westford

imagine going on a safari?
3:07 am
sprite

wonderful memories, I think, but also impossible to bear for now. So very very painful.
3:07 am
sprite

fireflies
3:08 am
westford

Yay sprite !!
3:08 am
sprite

3:08 am
westford

3:08 am
westford

3:09 am
sprite

no, only one does
3:10 am
westford

3:10 am
sprite

also, one of my unfindables today: to6/30
(an alloy, used to imitate gold, containing from 70 to 92 percent copper with zinc and sometimes tin and other materials forming the remainder)
3:10 am
sprite

lol yes, I know the feeling!
3:11 am
westford

I will look for that one..they use an alloy to imitate gold?
3:11 am
sprite

all the rest is either relatively normal or not unknown to babblers.
3:11 am
westford

must be what they put in those ATM machines
3:11 am
sprite

apparently yes. Totally new word for me.
3:12 am
sprite

3:21 am
sandyloo

hehehe
3:21 am
westford

I am cleaning my oven and can't go to bed it smells awful
3:21 am
westford

I think it's getting ready to burst into flames
3:22 am
sandyloo

I am about to feed horses and then cook dinner and of course have a glass of wine
3:22 am
westford

all in that order?
3:23 am
westford

was a chicken that ruined my oven today with all the splattering
3:23 am
sandyloo

West, I hate to admit this - one night I thought I had turned the oven off, but I had actually turned it full on. At 2am in the morning (i am not kidding) i awoke to hear a voice saying to me "go out to the kitchen " I couldnt get the words out of my head and i went - the oven was on fire!!
3:24 am
westford

that was so lucky
3:24 am
sandyloo

It was amazing - that is a true story
3:24 am
westford

someone was watching out for you
3:24 am
sandyloo

the little voice kept saying to me "go out to the kitchen ' over and over
3:25 am
sandyloo

they were that night!
3:26 am
sandyloo

Husband and I got the hose into the house (not good for electrical fires) and caused havoc! I rang the insurance the next day and they delivered a brand new oven
3:26 am
westford

were your children young then?
3:26 am
sandyloo

they were about 12 down to 2 - lucky for them
3:27 am
westford

lucky for all of you
3:27 am
westford

and I'm sure you check and recheck that oven dial now
3:27 am
westford

and so will I
3:27 am
sandyloo

Lol, you wouldn't believe how often I forget to turn it off
3:28 am
westford

I do that too
3:28 am
westford

and wonder why it's so warm near the stove lol
3:28 am
sandyloo

Still, what would life be if there was no excitement
3:28 am
westford

pretty dull
3:29 am
westford

what news of your husband?
3:29 am
sandyloo

I have to go, I have to check the horse as we went on a long ride this morning it was lovely
3:29 am
sandyloo

3:29 am
westford

how nice you lead an idyllic life I think
3:30 am
westford

okay I'll be here
3:30 am
sandyloo

oh the husband! he has pneumonia - he is on antibiotics - he is feeling well but still has pain in the side - it could have been anything so i am grateful
3:30 am
westford

hi ata off to feed the horses
4:06 am
westford

I was reading emails and daughter has suggested a cruise out of Long Beach in Dec
4:07 am
westford

we'll be in San Diego for the holidays anyway so sounds like a good deal
4:07 am
Atalante

ooo lovely!
4:08 am
westford

just a short one but think it will be fun
4:08 am
westford

so cold here now
4:09 am
Atalante

where to? down to Mexico area?
4:09 am
westford

yes to Encinata
4:09 am
Atalante

ooo lovely!
4:09 am
Atalante

warmth!
4:10 am
westford

I know
4:10 am
westford

getting there will be a pain
4:10 am
westford

but it's on 17 Dec so we should beat the holiday crowd
4:10 am
Atalante

just :)
4:11 am
westford

maybe we'll go a week early and spend some time in SF
4:11 am
Atalante

always fun to do!
4:12 am
westford

I was just checking the news and more volcanic ash is messing up Heathrow again?
4:12 am
Atalante

yep, Heathrow and Gatwick both closed :(
4:13 am
westford

same volcano ?
4:13 am
Atalante

yep!
4:13 am
westford

everything seems to be erupting
4:13 am
Atalante

it hasn't stopped erupting from a few weeks ago
4:14 am
westford

and how are you doing? knee any better?
4:15 am
Atalante

I don't really know - one day it feels ok, the next day it's horribly painful again! I need to get a physio appointment sorted today
4:16 am
westford

I'm sorry I hope that helps. Have they talked about surgery?
4:17 am
Atalante

no, luckily. apparently it's standard with medial ligaments just to let them heal. Cruciates are a different matter!
4:17 am
westford

probably when it feels ok you overdo
4:18 am
Atalante

probably! it's so easy to do
4:18 am
westford

be careful
4:18 am
Atalante

I'm trying :)
4:18 am
westford

I never did hear how it happened were you alone?
4:20 am
Atalante

yep, walking the dog. had to walk about mile and half back across the heathland to the few houses on the little island I was on. With Hobbit constantly running off to try and chase rabbits *facepalm*!
4:20 am
westford

yikes poor you
4:21 am
Atalante

I was just desperately glad I could hobble back!
4:21 am
westford

in a perfect world Hobbit would have run for help and brought back a bottle of wine
4:22 am
Atalante

oh yes. but she came over, looked a bit quizically at me, licked my nose, then buggered off to get rabbits. brat dog!
4:22 am
westford

maybe she was going to make you a coat to keep you warm
4:23 am
Atalante

that would have been nice
4:23 am
westford

just happy you're okay
4:23 am
Atalante

so I eventually found one of the coastguard men and he took me back to his house, fetched an ambulance person, and they got me onto the next boat to go over to the main island to the hospital there. hurray!
4:24 am
westford

Ata's Amazing Adventure
4:24 am
Atalante

I'm ok. My right knee has been a consistent pain in the backside since I was about 10, so it's not totally new! I'm just very quickly getting cabin fever
4:25 am
westford

and I hear the weather is quite nice over there now
4:25 am
Atalante

4:25 am
westford

4:25 am
Atalante

4:27 am

4:28 am
westford

I hope he gets it done soon
4:28 am
Atalante

me too!
4:28 am
westford

and feeds you grapes in the bargain
4:29 am
Atalante

I think that might be pushing it for him ...
4:30 am
westford

and I can't imagine you swooning
4:31 am
Atalante

noooooo
4:32 am

4:35 am
Atalante

4:35 am

4:47 am
FMitch

I love it here - never got to see such things in Ascot *grin* apart from the lesser spotted chav with or without hat etc :).
4:48 am
Atalante

but race fashion was certainly a sight
4:48 am
FMitch

true true, but we can rely on Haz for her links to the how not to do fashion.
4:49 am
FMitch

Has she made an appearance today yet?
4:51 am
FMitch

am I talking to myself and if so, should I answer my own question?
4:51 am
westford

hello FM and Andree was getting coffee
4:52 am
FMitch

Hi westie, yr icon is still making me smile, hope that Haz will see it too.
4:53 am
Atalante

no, no Haz yet
4:53 am
westford

I had no idea that Jilli has claimed George as her own
4:54 am
Atalante

not sure Haz knows that either!
4:54 am
FMitch

George was mine first until I leant him to Haz. She forets that but Scrabbler will have something to say about the matter too.
4:55 am
westford

I think a Babble meet with George invited would be so much fun..talk about fireworks
4:55 am
FMitch

a meet of any kind with George would be fireworks!!
4:55 am
Andree

yay george
4:55 am
westford

mmmmm
4:56 am
FMitch

although in all honesty he does not float my boat.
4:56 am
FMitch

Sean Connery is more my type.
4:56 am
westford

4:57 am
westford

he gets better as he gets older
4:58 am

brb pup wants out
5:39 am
westford

I decided to clean the oven ..thought I'd just press a button but it smelled so bad and got all smoky I figured I'd better stay here
5:39 am
lynxxx

Oh!
5:40 am
westford

once it's on it can't be shut off
5:40 am
westford

but sure beats cleaning it by hand
5:40 am
crosshair

those auto clean ovens only really work if you do it once a month sort of thing.i have to chisel mine out soon as well
5:40 am
westford

it has been a long time and tonight I had a very splattery chicken
5:41 am
westford

last night that is
5:43 am
lynxxx

I hate cleaning the oven. We had it cleaned by an exernal service last time. That was a bad decision - $s and made all the racks rusty
5:44 am
westford

so whatever they used must have been very caustic
5:44 am
westford

did they offer to replace the racks?
5:45 am
lynxxx

Must have been, wasn't around and husband wouldn't have bothered looking
5:46 am
lynxxx

No, lol - just told us we needed new ones. Live and learn I guess
5:46 am
westford

I know what you mean
5:46 am
lynxxx

You have inspired me...think I'll do mine tomorrow
5:47 am
crosshair

good used ovens run around 150-200 here,just easier to get another one every 10 years or so lol
5:47 am
westford

happy to help lol
5:47 am
westford

but mine is attached to the stove
5:48 am
crosshair

as is mine
5:48 am
westford

you mean you can just replace the oven?
5:48 am
lynxxx

We are so NOT handy - we have an under-bench type, I bet it would cost us a lot with installation included
5:48 am
westford

now you tell me lol
5:48 am
crosshair

why bother oven and four burners usually come as a single unit anyways
5:49 am
crosshair

5:49 am
westford

5:49 am
crosshair

oh..mm
5:50 am

6:14 am

good morning trif;)
6:14 am
lynxxx

Hi Trif. Ata fancies him from afar
6:15 am
Trifioso

well, she would have lots of places to fancy him after last night! boom
6:15 am
Trifioso

good morning crossy, my dear one
6:15 am
lynxxx

but then again I think everyone does, he seems a bit of a devil
6:15 am
Trifioso

btw, did you take the photo in your icon, crossy?
6:16 am
Trifioso

but he bats for the other team, yes?
6:16 am
crosshair

? im sorry im on my first tea..what photo?
6:16 am
lynxxx

Yes
6:17 am
Trifioso

the one in your icon, crossy, of the wolf in the grass? thought maybe it was a shot taken in your back yard?
6:17 am
crosshair

oh ,no trif.that is one of my older stock wolf photos
6:18 am
Trifioso

okay, thanks. great shot, anyway. love the dignified look on that one's face
6:18 am
crosshair

it is reduced from a larger picture,so im afraid he appears a bit squashed
6:22 am
crosshair

i am about 2 hour drive south from Ontario timber wolf country.when i go visit my da,i will often take a camera into algonquin park and try for some fresh pictures\
6:22 am
Trifioso

I am having such major time management problems at the moment....it's one of my worst areas. I don't have to work today, and the thought of a whole unstructured day ahead is overwhelming....I make lists, but I am not remotely realistic about how much I can actually get done in a day, and thus end up feeling so angry at myself for not getting 'everything' on it done....sigh
6:23 am
Trifioso

timberwolves are nicer than regular ones, or nastier than regular ones? don't know much about wolves, I am afraid. coyote country with me....
6:23 am
crosshair

do NOT make a list..pick a room or a task,start it,finish it then move on
6:23 am
crosshair

or make a list,put one thing on it,then make another list lol
6:23 am
Trifioso

yes, I will try that. Do have a couple of big projects I need to clear off the decks, and it would be amazingly freeing to see the back of them....
6:24 am
crosshair

take a coyote multiply its size by 4 and your close
6:24 am
Trifioso

LOL crossy! I have actually started going the other way with lists - I only list what I have actually accomplished, and thus at the end of a day, if I am feeling all mad at myself for "not getting anything done!" I can look at it for proof that I actually did contribute something
6:25 am
lynxxx

I used to do that at work Trif - and was always happy to get about half done. Undone just goes on the next list. Do the same now that I am retired. Don't be so hard on yourself - you know what, no-one else cares!
6:25 am
Trifioso

wow, that is really scary! especially if you consider the coyotes around here, which are as sleek and well fed as huskies, given their diet of pet cats, small dogs, and of course, my chickens
6:25 am
Trifioso

thanks lynxxx
6:25 am
crosshair

we used to make lists..all we did was spend 4 hours making lists lol
6:26 am
Trifioso

sometimes they are helpful, lists. I tend to forget stuff, so a list helps me remember to pick something up, or do a particular thing. it's just another tool, isn't it?
6:27 am
crosshair

today for example i have 2 tasks.making the kitchen spic and span,then the second list is to change the bathroom sink taps
6:27 am
Trifioso

very cool, crossy. are you re-fitting the entire bathroom, or just the taps?
6:27 am
Trifioso

and can you promise me something? (wifey-type question to follow)......
6:28 am
crosshair

after the wife and i go for walkies through the towns local arboredum so i can pick a pretty flower for her hair;0
6:28 am
crosshair

just taps today
6:28 am
Trifioso

are the taps broken in some way?
6:28 am
crosshair

yest,the base is coming apart from the rest of it and it leaks
6:30 am
crosshair

i usually have to swap out the taps about once every 5 years
6:30 am
Trifioso

okay. crossy, you know I love you, we all do, but you are, after all a man, so I ask the next question with the greatest respect and love for the sanity of my gender.....do you PROMISE to throw away, dispose of, or otherwise totally remove the broken taps from your house, and not put them on a shelf in the basement or shed somewhere, in case you "need it again someday?" I promise you - I really do - you will never, ever need a set of broken taps.
6:31 am
crosshair

i do not need a broken tap set lol
6:31 am
Trifioso

you are a good man, crossy. a real exception and a credit to your gender!
6:31 am
crosshair

we live in an appt,so i have no garage to store junk lol
6:31 am
crosshair

well.....i have 3 boxes of my old records..and no record player lol

6:32 am
crosshair

6:34 am
crosshair

6:35 am
Trifioso

6:35 am
crosshair

lol remember them? i had them till last year lol
6:36 am
Trifioso

when I was in high school, our youth group went to appalachia for a service project. the people we were working with had one 8 track tape - Molly Hatchet - and played it for a week straight. to this day, even my 75 year old mother can sing "flirting with disaster" in it's entirety
6:37 am
Trifioso

6:46 am
crosshair

and in the closet i still have 5 or 5 of my old fuzzy lumberjack type shirts,my shoulders are too wide for them now as they are 20 years old or more,but the wife likes them as a night shirt
6:47 am
Trifioso

back. I still have all my old casettes and albums too. Primo is digging the old vinyls (okay, NOT the xanadu soundtrack, but whatevs....) and it's nice to see him discover some great old music.

crosshair

lol i have a actual 1979 d.j demo record ,it is a 12 inch 45 r.p.m of blondie singing her heart of glass tune..in a 17 minute disco form ..shudder lol
6:48 am
Trifioso

besides, a lot of my old stuff was never pressed into cds, so there you go. Primo got some dosh for christmas last year and bought one of those turntables that converts to mp3s. great idea!
6:48 am
Trifioso

6:54 am
crosshair

6:55 am
Trifioso

6:55 am
crosshair

6:56 am
crosshair

poor lumberjacks..so misunderstood
6:56 am
sandyloo

6:57 am
crosshair

6:59 am
crosshair

I came here to get the link for Sudoku.

It is a goth fest. sigh

Awww Trifs. What sort of Dress?

7:10 am
lynxxx

Good to see the English maintaining their traditions
7:11 am
Trifioso

white underdress with a black overdress. yes, will post photos when it does not look like a pile of fabric, but an actual dress
7:11 am
herinfernallady

JB I was using Iron Sudoku but I will mark it down for later.
7:11 am
Trifioso

they paid for the fabric, jbv....
7:11 am
JBV

what fabric, trif?
7:11 am
Trifioso

right now I hate it beyond words.
7:11 am
JBV

oh, ok, runner-up for mother of the year
7:12 am
Trifioso

its a white satin underdress. that fabric is actually quite nice - has a jacquard print on it with silver threads and sparkly bits...the black over dress is black matte satin and it is quite nice on its own, as it hangs beautifully and is pretty light weight so it will move well when they are dancing
7:13 am
JBV

very nice - sounds beautiful
7:13 am
Trifioso

I am just at that stage in the process where there have been a few adjustments that needed to be made and I just can't seem to get this dress to behave as I want it to. I am like this with every sewing project, trust me. mind you, prom is friday, so I am setting myself strict babble time lines today
7:13 am
JBV

brings back memories from long ago - my mom made my prom dress - apple green shantung underdress and pink and green apple blossom chiffon over. I sewed the sequins on myself
7:14 am
Trifioso

long or tea length jbv?
7:14 am
Trifioso

and I need to make primo his vest to match, but vests are 2 hours, so no worries there
7:14 am
JBV

long - oh and she made a long-sleeved coat to go over it - i'll find the picture somewhere and post it
7:14 am
wildcat17

lucky kids ... can't wait to see the pics
7:14 am
Trifioso

it sounds amazing! do you stil have it?
7:15 am
JBV

we cut it down and I wore it several times after - no longer have that, but I still have a few special things she made. We were into recycling. Have a pillowcase made from my 8th grade dress - printed polished cotton
7:16 am
sandyloo

I am looking forward to the photos
7:16 am
JBV

I remember the fittings as if it were yesterday - all those pins sticking in me everywhere
7:16 am
herinfernallady

awww JB that is wonderful.
7:16 am
sandyloo

don't know why I have such trouble with the 4 letter words!
7:17 am
Trifioso

I recycle clothes all the time, a la Project Runway....especially when I find clothes on the deep discount rack somewhere like old navy. I bought a dress there a couple of years ago for a whopping .98, and made it into a shirt that I love and wear all the time. excellent R o I !
7:17 am

Clue please for de 7/32
7:17 am

My cat is yowling for his daddy
7:17 am
JBV

so you buy them for the fabric? great idea
7:18 am
Trifioso

yes, I do.
7:18 am
Trifioso

but only if they are wicked cheap, it is a fabric I really like, and I think I will wear it
7:18 am
sandyloo

Clever Trif
7:18 am
Trifioso

otherwise it just becomes more clutter in my "to do" pile and who needs the guilt?
7:18 am

I have hand stitched elbow high gauntlet style gloves velvet and I lost them on the first night I wore them.

I remember I also recycled the tops off stockings, turned the elastic lace bit into a wrist holder for my cards when I went clubing

Oh Haz you have to see Westies icon - George witha pup. We had much discussion about him and you this morning.
7:31 am

George with a pup? Thank goodness it's not a rabbit, or you know who might claim victory.
7:31 am

Oh dear Trif, loss of bunnies?

True HAz, and a number of the small souther airfields ahve been shut too a nd now HEathrow and Gatwick affected.
7:38 am
FMitch

LOL Trif!!!

Haz1558

For the purposes of clarity, when George is mentioned, it is invariably George Clooney. The man who has had to take a restraining order out against a certain babbling paediatrician who claims fiancee rights. It's sad, really.
7:38 am
FMitch

and Hi Soodle.
7:38 am
Haz1558

Hello, Soodle.
7:39 am
EvaNadine

how are we all this morning?
7:39 am
Soodlebum

Dublin Airport is opening as I type... What a mess
7:39 am
Anniebrook

Has George been sighted?
7:39 am
Trifioso

I have a sneaking suspicion that mr. clooney plays for the other team....you heard it here first!
7:39 am
sandyloo

love your icon and your blurb sood
7:39 am
mom2han8

I feel the same way about Johnny Depp.
7:39 am
mom2han8

Very protective, LOL.
7:39 am
Haz1558

Hello, Annie. Westford has an icon pic of him for jillibus' birthday.
7:39 am
FMitch

Can I remind you that I was with George first and only leant him to you for a week 4 years ago and have never seen him back here since then!!!!
7:40 am
Soodlebum

:)
7:40 am
Haz1558

George likes the comfort of my understairs cupboard. What can I say?
7:40 am
Anniebrook

Jilli's birthday and George in one day..wonderful
7:40 am
Trifioso

hmmm. where jonny depp is concerned I feel probably the case is that he is more, um, flexible as to which team someone is on. All cats are grey in the dark, as they say
7:40 am
FMitch

pffft
7:41 am
Haz1558

Was that a raspberry, FM?
7:41 am
sandyloo

who is this george, Mitch?
7:41 am
mom2han8

I don't want a relationship with him, LOL... so I don't especially care.
7:41 am
FMitch

George Clooney - used to be a mate of mine.
7:42 am
sandyloo

Mitch, is George a previous cleaner who is now under your stairs?
7:42 am
Soodlebum

I may have asked you before, Haz, but when your finished with George, could you make him a packed lunch, pat him on the head, and point him southwards?
7:42 am
sandyloo

I heard Mr Clooney is gay
7:42 am
Trifioso

"point him southwards" sounds naughty, soodle!
7:42 am
Anniebrook

Horrors!
7:42 am
lynxxx

...and wears thongs
7:42 am
FMitch

Haz now has her claws into him but Scrabbler believes she is engaged to him **Grin**
7:43 am
mom2han8

I would really be shocked to discover that George Clooney is gay.
7:43 am
mom2han8

The thong might be interesting.
7:43 am
Soodlebum

Remember Rock Hudson???
7:43 am
Trifioso

I am not sure anything shocks me anymore.
7:43 am
mom2han8

Rock always had that feminine side.
7:43 am
FMitch

sandy you are doing nothing for my reputation!
7:44 am
sandyloo

There is a site on the internet 'Is George Clooney gay?"
7:44 am
Soodlebum

Trif! I meant Geographically. Sheesh >: )
7:44 am
Trifioso

LOL
7:44 am
sandyloo

Mitch, we all have our likes and dislikes
7:45 am
mom2han8

theres a site on the internet for everything, LOL.
7:45 am
FMitch

and on that point sandy I return to comments made early this morning re Sean Connery.
7:45 am
Trifioso

I wonder why it still matters... I hate the old argument that "well, then no one would ever buy him as a romantic lead again." uh, people, it's a MOVIE. I don't think Tom Hanks is actually as astronaut, but I love Apollo 13
7:45 am
sandyloo

LOL - but I did hear it from someone who has been to a party with him
7:45 am
sandyloo

Doesn't matter to me or Mitch
7:45 am
Soodlebum

Tom Hanks not an astronaut?????? My illusions are being shattered with every entry in todays chog.
7:45 am
mom2han8

Tom Hanks is not an astronaut???
7:46 am
mom2han8

Or a gay man from Philadelphia? Or a Harvard symbologist???
7:46 am
Soodlebum

Or a little boy who grew up real fast?
7:46 am
Trifioso

sorry ladies, he is merely an actor. a very, very good actor. now, shall I tell you about the man inside the Mickey Mouse costume at Disneyworld?
7:46 am
FMitch

we can dream but I do remember being devastated when I found out that Cliff Richard was gay ( I was only 12 at the time).
7:46 am
sandyloo

Hey Mitch - Sean Connery can't be gay with that gorgeous voice
7:47 am
FMitch

Sean can be whatever he wants with that voice and chest hair :)
7:47 am
Trifioso

I was way WAY more upset to hear Sean Connery say that if a woman is getting "out of line" it's okay to give her a rap in the mouth. classy!
7:47 am
mom2han8

My opinion of Sean Connery is that he is probably not so discriminating in the bedroom...
7:47 am
pabtrek

WHAT CLIFF RICHARD IS GAY, SAY IT ISN'T SO.
7:47 am
mom2han8

Yes Trif... I was just going to say that.
7:47 am
sandyloo

You are all stopping me from doing the puzzle - I have 49 left and am now going to be a lurker
7:47 am
mom2han8

I don't even know who Cliff Richard is, LOL.
7:48 am
pabtrek

where was I when this came out (pun intended) :)
7:48 am
Trifioso

thanks mom. bummer, wasn't it? he ranks right up there with mel gibson on the evolutionary ladder
7:48 am
mom2han8

I did see Sean Connery at the opera a couple of years ago... holy guacamole is he sexy as hell in person... kilt and all...
7:48 am
FMitch

lol pap.
7:48 am
Trifioso

all this is nancy boy's cue to appear....where is our dear boy today?
7:49 am
Soodlebum

Oooh. Men in kilts. Yum yum
7:49 am
mom2han8

Never a big Mel fan to begin with.
7:49 am
Trifioso

probably at a club somewhere with Sean and George....
7:49 am
Trifioso

I made mr. hate a kilt once....let me see if I can dig up a photo...
7:49 am
Soodlebum

Russell Crowe in a skirt in Gladiator...... Maximus!
7:50 am
FMitch

Minimus!
7:50 am
mom2han8

Let me tell you, I nearly fell out of my chair... I actually audibly gasped.. the news was filming and two seconds later my mother texted me to say that I looked hysterical on TV gasping at Sean Connery... who kind of smirked at me...
7:50 am
mom2han8

I have to tell you... Russell Crowe does absolutely nothing for me.
7:51 am
pabtrek

mom2, Sean Connery looked at you, you lucky woman
7:51 am
Soodlebum

Oh, but he was something else in Gladiator. (slight swoon)
7:51 am

7:52 am
mom2han8

you have no idea pab! It was so funny... I was talking to someone next to me... they stopped talking and looked over my head... so I turned... and there he was... and I gasped so loudly that he looked at me and smirked... too funny.
7:52 am
Soodlebum

Hi Boo, Hi Rubes :)

I could do the Letterman segment "Brush with Greatness"... don't know if he still does that one??
7:54 am
Trifioso

that is so cool!
7:54 am
sandyloo

Just to change the subject, Nicky is watching a show called "Toddlers and Tiaras" she is calling it the 'Mini prostitutes show" is this for real???
7:54 am
mom2han8

You see lots of people unexpectedly in NYC... but this was opening night at the Metropolitan Opera and there were stars galore on the red carpet...
7:55 am
mom2han8

Yes sandy... this is for real.
7:55 am
Trifioso

yes, it is a real show, and it is DISGUSTING - televised child abuse
7:55 am
mom2han8

OMG Trif... I was just going to say that these women should be in jail!
7:55 am
Trifioso

that is one of my favorite things about new york. I have yet to be there, even for a weekend, without a celebrity sighting. heaven!
7:55 am
pabtrek

I've never seen, but I've heard about, totally disgusting
7:55 am
sandyloo

Dr phil calls them 'pedophiles paradise' and I agree with you Trif, I hardly think it teaches them good values
7:56 am
mom2han8

ONe of my favorite encounters was with Ron Wood... OMG he was too funny.
7:56 am
Trifioso

okay, you all have to promise to kick me off here in five more minutes. I have GOT to get stuff done today!
7:56 am
sandyloo

I saw Michael Caine in New York
7:57 am
mom2han8

It's so funny... you just kind of bump into celebs in Manhattan. They are just out doing their thing.
7:57 am
rubyfoo

I think I'm entering here too late, seem to have missed the juicy bits!
7:57 am
Soodlebum

My brother went to school with Larry Mullins jr, - the drummer in U2. He was in our house heaps of times. (My claim to fame)
7:58 am
mom2han8

I once had a friend who lived in a building with a woman who was dating ERic Roberts... at 3 AM he was screaming outside of the building for her to let her in and she was throwing his crap out the window at him, LOL!
7:58 am
mom2han8

I LOVE U2...
7:58 am
rubyfoo

my son was in a U2 tribute band (in Austin TX) for two years playing bass
7:59 am
mom2han8

Ron Wood, drunk as a skunk in the village at an outdoor cafe... kept trying to get me to have a drink with him... "Come on Luv" he kept saying.... I so would have, but my daughter was 4 at the time and she was with me... did not think it was the right environment for her... LOL
7:59 am

3:49 pm

I watched 60 mins last night and it was very very sobering. a lot of shortcuts, make for a sad situation...
4:25 pm
jmcnrick

BP is doing pretty much everything is can including saying it will pay for it all regardless of the legal cap
4:25 pm
jmcnrick

the company which owned the well is ducking and weaving
4:27 pm
SeaSpray

doesn't the law require them to have emergency plans BEFORE the emergency?
4:27 pm
jmcnrick

the law also caps their liability
4:28 pm
SeaSpray

why is that?
4:28 pm
jmcnrick

it is clear that there was error especially the dead battery in the back system!
4:29 pm
jmcnrick

why? because george w and cheney are in the oil industry
4:29 pm
jmcnrick

the law was their response to the Valdez spill
4:29 pm
jmcnrick

4:33 pm
redturtlehead

you know, the thing that inflames me so much is that it really doesnt matter how much money they throw at people, the coast will never be the same.
4:37 pm
Atalante

and the world would be a different place compeltely without the oil such rigs pump ...
4:38 pm
redturtlehead

i am not against pumping, but I am really against not replacing safety valves when pieces of them start coming up with the drilling.
4:39 pm
Atalante

um yeah. not ideal.
4:40 pm
redturtlehead

the guy on 60 minutes described a lot of issues that were avoidable, as if often the case in these big problems.
4:40 pm
Atalante

4:41 pm
redturtlehead

indeed.
4:41 pm
redturtlehead

lordy i have 118 left.
4:42 pm
Atalante

I'm just very grateful in a strange way that it was BP involved. A lot of oil companies have a lot less of a sense of responsibility
4:42 pm
redturtlehead

i hope it does not come round to my beaches, but...it is already affecting things.
4:44 pm
Atalante

every beach in the world will be affected, if only in a very very minor way
4:45 pm
redturtlehead

true, Ata, I guess I just keep thinking of the things that I know, which is the only way I htink most people relate well to stuff.
4:46 pm
Atalante

oh yes, only natural! I have a stranger automatic viewpoint being immersed in marine management!
4:46 pm
redturtlehead

exactly....the way I view health care systems, and others usually look at how it will affect them only.
4:47 pm
Atalante

ty - had tried that 5 but wouldn'ttake... but te 7 does
11:19 pm
gremlinn

it takes the -ism and -ist forms as well
11:19 pm
hootowl

makes as much sense as anything enable does
11:19 pm
gremlinn

the 5 would be a proper noun, so it does make a twisted sort of sense
11:20 pm
hootowl

considering how many derogatives are in it you have to wonder why it won't accept the 5
11:21 pm
gremlinn

I think, because it's only used as a proper noun
11:21 pm
hootowl

nothing proper about it! Especially nowadays
11:21 pm
kje

i am fighting so hard to stay awake... only 18 left
11:21 pm
gremlinn

but the -ic, -ism, -ist, etc., have fallen into common noun usage
11:22 pm
hootowl

but there is no consistancy
11:23 pm
gremlinn

I wouldn't fault Enable for that
11:23 pm
hootowl

no - just the people who created it
11:23 pm
rururocks

satan is a like a person.. not a word
11:24 pm

Nor them - it's just that "sa7" isn't capitalized under most usage anymore - just how English has evolved.

hi ru - you do realise that there are some who think calling it a boat is a cardinal sin????
