Will someone define troll, as it applies to the chat
1:32 am
jillibus

hello Christine -- a troll is someone who come here just to be a nuisance, often using obscenities or just holding down a key to disrupt the chat, or insults babblers and so on. Why?
1:32 am

fireworks - just in time because visitirs have turned up unexpectedly
1:33 am
jillibus

YAY anike!!! Have fun!
1:33 am
Christine

I saw something yesterday or the day before that mentioned it, and couldn't remember the definition. Thanks, Jillibus.

hey NB!!
9:40 am
Pinikula

ahhhh, thx for that one, Mojo; and thx for the nudge, NB
9:40 am
Pinikula

how are you?

Mojo1158

you can also add an R
9:40 am
Nef

Mojo, another site I recommend to newbies is down under the tile stats grid is a list of Friend of Babble. AngelSong's Babble Page is the last one and it's terrific for explaining the game
9:41 am
Nef

Hi NB
9:41 am
Nancy Boy

hi, LB and Nef! :) and you're welcome, Pini :)
9:41 am
Pinikula

got 'em!
9:41 am
Mojo1158

thanks again Nef!
9:41 am
Pinikula

Nef! hey girl ;)
9:42 am
Pinikula

Great pic, NB!
9:43 am
Nancy Boy

thank you, Pini! I do try my best ;)
9:44 am
Nef

hi, Pini. I'm trying to behave and not end up in the PB this am. Off to a bad start though
9:44 am
Nancy Boy

How is life for you two?
9:44 am
Pinikula

I'll forgive you, Nef! * placing chocolate in PB, just in case *
9:45 am
Pinikula

fair to midlin, NB...in other words, SSDD (same sh** different day)
9:45 am
Nancy Boy

lol Pini...I hear that.
9:46 am
Nef

I'm looking at bills right now; not the most pleasant task after these past 2 months....
9:46 am
Nef

LOL, Pini, I think I'll say SDDS (ame day, different sh**)
9:47 am
Nancy Boy

Been doing lots of that myself Nef - when I'm not busy wringing my hands in despair. Paying for two flats this month, one of which I'm not even LIVING in...grrr...I'm the definition of skint.
9:47 am
Nef

SAME
9:47 am
Pinikula

but days have to change, Nef...gotta keep moving along...
9:48 am
Pinikula

NB...why 2 flats?
9:48 am
Jellen

Hello, Babblers!
9:48 am
Pinikula

morning jellen
9:48 am
littlebit

hey jellen!
9:48 am
Nancy Boy

In fact, I'm the definition of po4/5 ;)
Pini, because I'd paid my month's rent for Leo's, but then of course had to leave and put down money for the one I'm in now...
9:49 am
Nancy Boy

hello, Jellen :)
9:49 am
Jellen

Going to update my profile...brb
9:49 am
Nef

I've been UP since 4:30 AM; just definitely NOT awake. (Couldn't stay in bed any longer, achey)
9:49 am
Nef

Hi Jellen
9:49 am
Pinikula

I gather from that you and Leo are no longer together? Why isn't he paying for his own flat?
9:50 am
Nancy Boy

Oh well Pini, it's kind of a long story. Basically, I paid my half of the rent at the beginning of the month, as usual, and then found out he'd been cheating on me - so got out of there. That's the short version..
9:50 am
Nancy Boy

Ouch, Nef! What a pain :(
9:51 am
Pinikula

Oh, so sorry to hear, NB...perhaps HE should have been the one to leave and, as "punishment," incur the additional costs you are trying to cover (or at least give you 1/2 back).
9:51 am
Nef

I just did too much, then was crawling around on the floor with my grandson night before last.
9:52 am
Pinikula

Oh, to be young again, eh, Nef? :)
9:53 am
Nef

It would be nice. Tonight we are going to visit our old neighbors, so will be on the floor with my "adopted" grandkids too
9:53 am
Nancy Boy

S'alright, Pini :) I'm just glad I was able to find somewhere else to live! I was up sh!t creek without a paddle for a while.
9:53 am
Pinikula

...and I probably shouldn't say anything since I see I'm rather late on finding out, NB...but your picture is great! You look incredibly happy!!!
9:54 am
Nancy Boy

Thank you, Pini :) it's reminding me to smile these days ;) I've been lucky though - stumbled a bit but landed on my feet!
9:55 am
Pinikula

That's what I like to hear, NB!!! Good for you for keeping your chin up!
9:55 am
Jellen

Landing on your feet is a great skill to have!
9:56 am
Nef

NB, I'm glad that you realize that you can land on your feet, that's an important life lesson
9:56 am
Nancy Boy

Pfffft, I've lost a family, a university place and a boyfriend - I'm getting used to this now ;)
9:57 am
Nancy Boy

thank you :) well, I couldn't have done it alone! Lots of babblers, as well as some other great friends, have made it easier
9:57 am
Pinikula

...a bit much for your young years, but experience that will make moments down the road seem trivial; you are resiliant! :)
9:58 am
Nef

I'm having serious lag time here; and now DH wants me to do some stuff around the house. I have to reboot; so will get away from the computer at the same time. BBL!
9:58 am
Nancy Boy

Also. Tequila helped ;)
9:58 am
Nancy Boy

See you, Nef! Don't work too hard :)
9:58 am
Pinikula

take care, Nef!
9:59 am
Jellen

later, Nef!
9:59 am
littlebit

bye nef!
9:59 am
Jellen

Profile updated...
9:59 am
Nef

NB, be careful of that tequila. Sometimes booze seems like a friend, but it won't fix anything
9:59 am
Nef

bye now! <poof>
9:59 am
Pinikula

NB...Teq not exactly good alternative; may need to consider seeking out a different alternative for future reference! * big sis concern *

Singing along with Led Zepp as we chat :-)
10:01 am
wildcat17

good
10:01 am
Pinikula

Jellen, sorry you both have to stay longer; hope the hiccups have subsided!!!
10:01 am
Nancy Boy

Don't worry Pini, I'm mainly joking. I spent some time completely smashed - had no idea where I was, but of course that didn't help. Being more sensible now
10:01 am
wildcat17

big hugs for both of you. hope things get better soon
10:02 am
Nancy Boy

Oooh, good taste, Jellen! I love me some LZ ;)
10:02 am
Pinikula

Good boy, NB!!! * beaming * you did learn something!! :)
10:02 am
Jellen

We're going to cruise the hospital in a wheelchair in a bit.
10:02 am
Pinikula

Oh, that will be a nice change of pace, Jellen!
10:03 am
Jellen

That's my music, too, NB! Like Rush?
10:04 am
Pinikula

<-- country girl
10:05 am
Jellen

We listen to country, too, Pini!
10:05 am
Pinikula

yeah!!!!
10:05 am
Jellen

OK, going on a walk...bbl!
10:06 am
Pinikula

Enjoy!
10:07 am
Nancy Boy

I'm into a lot of 80s recently - have an almost physical dependency on Depeche Mode. I was born out of my time..
10:08 am
Nancy Boy

But lots of classics too - Pink Floyd, The Doors. I might just love music full stop ;)
10:08 am
Mojo1158

hello NB...I love Depeche Mode...and the Cure and the Smiths even more!
10:08 am
Pinikula

Probably kind of like me...I happen to enjoy 50-60's quite a bit
10:08 am

Love both of those, Mojo!
10:09 am
herinfernallady

I got to see the Cure live :D
10:09 am
littlebit

(((HERIN!!)))
10:10 am
Nancy Boy

Best band I ever saw live was definitely Radiohead at the Reading Festival '09. Literally perfect!
10:11 am
herinfernallady

Hugs
10:11 am
herinfernallady

NB you are so lucky to live in England.
10:11 am
herinfernallady

I was looking forward to Sensation this NYE but no can't have as Aus is too far away
10:12 am
Pinikula

Groups other than country that I've seen include: Prince, Leonard Skinner, Deaf Leopard, Journey...
10:12 am
Pinikula

Journey was enjoyable; the others were a little much
10:12 am
Nancy Boy

Tell me about it...English festivals are awesome. The hygiene situation can be hard to take though ;) Plus, sleeping in a tent with five other boys = Jesse is not a happy camper
10:13 am
Nancy Boy

Prince! Wow.
10:13 am
herinfernallady

Well I was gratful for the Cure as I know how much he hates flying
10:13 am
Pinikula

When he was still Prince even!
10:14 am
Nancy Boy

Actually, seeing Placebo was pretty awesome. I got right to the front, was black and blue all over at the end - so worth it.
10:15 am
Pinikula

black/blue? gads, tough crowds!
10:16 am
Mojo1158

when my daughter saw Nirvana she was PROUD that she has been kicked in the head in the mosh pit! Teenagers! I bet she would be shamed by thta story now!
10:16 am
Nancy Boy

It was my own fault - the vocalist threw his shirt into the crowd and I caught it. I was immediately set upon :P Had to have stitches afterwards. Still have that shirt though!
10:17 am
Pinikula

Holy cow! Mojo...does she still talk about it like it was fun?
10:17 am
Mojo1158

awesome NB! I once got and kept (to this day) a Bunny Carlos drumstick!
10:17 am
Pinikula

way to hold on, NB!!!
10:17 am
Nancy Boy

I would be proud, Mojo! One would expect little else at Nirvana ;) I got suckered into going to a Slipknot gig once...that was pretty violent.
10:18 am
Mojo1158

No Pink...she is 30 something and I am sure she would be mortified to know I had told!
10:18 am
Pinikula

you, too, Mojo...
10:18 am
Nancy Boy

Thank you ladies ;) I was proud myself. My parents thought I'd been attacked.
10:18 am
Pinikula

...I'll just watch the music conversation now since I think I'm dating myself fast!
10:19 am
herinfernallady

hmmph I need about $1000 by now :( I wont o go out
10:19 am
Jillyjill

Ok...old age department here....drumstick from Moody Blues...
10:19 am
herinfernallady

Nancy I was 3 from the frount for Placebo
10:19 am
Nancy Boy

Wow, I can't remember what it's like to have an amount of money in four figures.
10:20 am
Pinikula

I missed an opportunity to see Glen Yarborough a few months ago...I wish I'd been able to go!
10:20 am
Nancy Boy

What'd you think of them, Herin? They are a fun band to see live...I'm a big fan. Definitely have a crush on Brian ;)
10:20 am
Pinikula

what are you saving for, herin?
10:20 am
herinfernallady

I want to go to Sydney to a massive dance party. Tickets are $200 each and now himself wants to come and play too
10:20 am
Pinikula

herin, have himself foot the bill? or his part?
10:21 am
herinfernallady

O be still my beating heart Brian Molko up close is just as hot
10:21 am
herinfernallady

Pini himself wants to come and play so now it is double the cost
10:21 am
Pinikula

you worry about your 1/2, herin; if he wants to go, let him worry about his
10:22 am
Pinikula

...and now that I've really dated myself, I think I'm going to try and find something for breakfast...
10:22 am
herinfernallady

No Pini it is a team thing
10:22 am
Pinikula

...back in a bit.
10:22 am
Nancy Boy

You're telling me, Herin ;) and to think I own a shirt that was once worn on that charismatic, sweaty back. Ahhhh!
10:22 am
Pinikula

(oh, gotcha, herin...still...have him cough up some dough)
10:23 am
Nancy Boy

and the best thing about him is that we're both in with a chance, Herin ;)
10:23 am
herinfernallady

O yes Pini for sure
10:23 am

Dan I refuse to grow up
10:25 am
dan2bit

nothing wrong with that!
10:25 am
Nancy Boy

He IS pretty. Nice guy, too. Seriously though, I suffered for that shirt - black eye, bruises all over, stitches...my nipple ring got ripped out, which I think is the next worst thing to being kicked in the crotch. But SO worth it.
10:26 am
herinfernallady

Awww
10:26 am
herinfernallady

and OUCH NB
10:27 am
Nancy Boy

It's what happens when twenty teenage girls are scratching desperately at your chest, Herin ;) I was glad to be gay that day..
10:27 am
herinfernallady

I removed my ear and nose piercing before this concert and I didn't move the entire time from the spot I was in (which was for about 5 hours)
10:27 am
Nancy Boy

They were after the shirt, of course, not me!
10:28 am
herinfernallady

Well you never know NB

10:33 am
Nancy Boy

not the face Jilly, anywhere but the face!! No, no scars, thank goodness ;) apart from where my piercing got pulled out - but nobody's really gonna be looking at my nipple that closely.
10:34 am
Jillyjill

OUCH!!
10:34 am
Jellen

Hi again...just got back from the giftshop...took a wheelchair, but he walked around the shop...was a bit much for him...pain is back...
10:35 am
Nancy Boy

Can say that again Jilly - I let out a most unmanly scream ;)
10:35 am
Jellen

I'm good...slept better last night...
10:36 am
Jillyjill

I bet, I actually cannot imagine having that ripped out...especially after nursing both my sons!!
10:38 am
Nancy Boy

It was my ticket to freedom though - there was an impressive amount of blood. Left the venue the dignified way - carried by security ;)
10:39 am
Jillyjill

hope they were good looling!! 1st class all the way NB!!
10:41 am
Nancy Boy

LOL Jilly! Quite ;)

11:12 am
jesdraggon

run away; the grid lies... it says there are 131 words, but i say there are only 50!
11:12 am

Does any one know how to get candle wax out of cloth?
11:12 am

lol
11:12 am
redturtlehead

well jes, there are 69, i am sure beyond that...
11:12 am
jesdraggon

very very hot water
11:12 am
melody17

wait fo it to dry and then pick it off?
11:12 am
redturtlehead

phae, you can freeze it and then remove it, but if its colored it probably will stain.
11:13 am
jesdraggon

but if it's colored wax it'll still leave a mark.
11:13 am
phaeton

tried that melody...it's kind of a lacy thing and doesn't want to let go
11:13 am
melody17

iron over it with brown paper...tht gets out greasae marks so may work
11:13 am
phaeton

thanks...i'll try the suggestions
11:14 am
redturtlehead

nice tip melody!
11:14 am

hola
11:14 am

hi kje, how are your new interns?
11:14 am
sciencegeek

kje did you take off those earrings?
11:14 am
jesdraggon

morning, kje
11:15 am
kje

I did SG, immediately
11:15 am
sciencegeek

which of the two enchilada recipes d you prefer?
11:15 am
kje

my new interns will be fine - one is very good (from Miami, red), the other is having a slow start but I think he will get the hang of it
11:15 am
kje

I like green enchiladas
11:15 am
Minveryork

Hi to my fellow babblers! How is everyone doing today
11:16 am
sciencegeek

yes, that one sounded very yummy
11:16 am
Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
11:16 am
redturtlehead

Well,the Miamian, must think Texas is cool in comparison. Did you get any of the Hurricane weather?
11:16 am
kje

pretty flowers, min!
11:16 am
jesdraggon

hello, min! doing alright in the real world, but getting my butt kicked inthe grid
11:16 am
kje

we have gotten rain everyday for a week now... and gushers yesterday
11:16 am
Minveryork

Thanks kje~!
11:17 am
kje

U of Miami has grads are really prepped and ready to hit the ground running as interns, I think... I have had several from there and they "get" the whole picture
11:18 am
Minveryork

Not sure how long I will be here. I have 3 little nieces and one computer. Also,going to pool party very soon
11:18 am
kje

that sounds like fun. min!
11:18 am
redturtlehead

thanks good news kje. I have actually never been to Miami!
11:19 am
redturtlehead

does sound like a good way to be in the summer Minver!
11:19 am
kje

they do a lot of geri there... that helps, b/c they learn good multidisciplinary care and how important all the extra things are like communication and continuity... many interns ta this point just want to diagnose and write a Rx and forget that it is all the other stuff that truly determines how a patient does
11:20 am
redturtlehead

Ha, they want to be Emergency Docs!
11:20 am
kje

red - I have a bad RN story
11:21 am
redturtlehead

Oh no, not about me?
11:21 am
sciencegeek

tell....
11:21 am
kje

of course not!
11:21 am
kje

we went in to see a patient, mid-30s, has been delirious for weeks, always trying to get up but would fall immediately - is on 1:1 sitter
11:21 am
redturtlehead

we had hold all last week and I vainly attempted to be a floor nurse...ick.
11:21 am
redturtlehead

oh no.
11:22 am
kje

so we walk into the room, and he has leg restarints on and trying to get out of bed....
11:22 am
kje

can you see the problem with that?
11:22 am
sciencegeek

no arm restraints?
11:22 am
kje

just leg restraints, climbing over a rail....
11:22 am
redturtlehead

I can see many problems with this. where firstly is the sitter?
11:22 am
jesdraggon

just leg restraints?
11:23 am
sciencegeek

did he tear anything?
11:23 am
kje

see - this is not rocket science... everyone can see what would happen
11:23 am
redturtlehead

Why did she decide to choose leg restraints?
11:23 am
sciencegeek

lol - I do have some experience with patients!
11:23 am
Mojo1158

Cindi!
11:23 am
kje

I undid the restraints, redirected him to stay in bed, and spoke with the sitter about why that was not a good idea and she said she had not restrained him
11:24 am
jesdraggon

so how did someone else get in and restrain him, if she was supposed to be watching him?
11:24 am
sciencegeek

mojo = mildred?
11:25 am
sciencegeek

I bet he put those leg restrains on by himself! rofl
11:25 am
redturtlehead

the nurse probably restrained him and let the sitter then struggle to keep the pt in bed.
11:25 am
jesdraggon

seems like that's something you'd notice, someone coming in and messing with your patients.
11:25 am
Mojo1158

Indeed...mo=mom jo=johnson
11:25 am
kje

so I go to talk with the charge nurse just to explain our goal of no restraints and redirection instead... and also explain why leg restraints alone, if restraints are truly needed, are not a good idea as he will still attempt to get up, but will land on hishead without legs.... onlt to find out that SHE was the one who had done that
11:25 am
kje

the charge!!!
11:25 am
redturtlehead

sitters dont really have patients, they just sit....
11:25 am
jesdraggon

ah
11:26 am
redturtlehead

kje, did she have a high ammonia level? the charge that is? I mean, you dont use legs with otu arms.
11:27 am
sciencegeek

mojo - pay the $14 and get pro
11:27 am
kje

no, the sitter was happy to have the ongoing discussion with a delirious guy wanting to meet her "at the bar in the hall" for a beer ... she was good about getting his mind on something else like the TV
11:27 am
redturtlehead

going pro is worth it.
11:27 am

kje

I KNOW red!!! I was shocked... I thought it was one of the less experienced nurses and that is why I went to talk to her, so she could train them.... she defended it saying she had only done it b/c she was sitting there at the time. I explained it STILL should not be done - you turn your back for a sec, he goes over and lands on head
11:28 am

LOLOL red!

I have a MacBook pro and have an older ipod shuffle and also an ipod mini. When I plug them into the USB port they are not picked up by the computer at all.... once in a while they do pick up and charge and stuff, but not often...I tried compressed air, and still no good, what is going on?

11:36 am
dcseain

new cable for connecting with it?
11:37 am
kje

hiccups for 2 days usually has a trigger and not usually responsive to those tricks, ask the doc to try a dose of thorazine
11:37 am
redturtlehead

It's a sticky little issue, they no longer make this shuffle, but the new one they made with the controls on the headhones tends to short out with sweat.

This grid took hours of la6/27.But I fulfilled my oa4/5 to finish. I le 5/12 into the grid this morning and did not enter my fi5/16 word until 10:48 thanks to Jellen It was a grid from he 4/5, but I did le 5/10 some new words. Now I can do my story of clues. My nieces are visiting for their an6/21 visit. I had a pl4/5 for them while they are here. I made it clear th 4/4 although I wanted them to have fun, they had to follow all of my ru 4/5s. They had a choice of going to see a ba 6/24 or going to a pool party. Of course nieces wanted to go to the pool party and they had a ba4/6. Nieces ba 5/16ed so much, they did not even have to take a ba 4/6 tonight.They got to ride a mini bo4/6 in the pool They played other pool games. All their pa 4/5 skin is now nice and tan.When they were finished swimming they played ta 5/14. It was hard to te 4/4 my nieces away from this party when it was time to go. I could te 4/4 th 4/5 they did not want to leave. Now that I did story of clues, I believe I have ea4/4ed the right to go to bed. Not a so 4/5 is awake now. It is very la 4/4 & time for me to ha4/5 my babbling for the night I can he 4/5 the sound of my pillows.I hope I was able to he 4/5 some of you out. By the way, this isn't a ta 4/4 ta4/4, it is true.
