6:37 am

151 words so far.....
6:38 am
Sally-catlover
heehee, just tried me 5/14 and it was accepted.
6:38 am
rubyfoo
whic, in itself, says a lot
6:38 am
Sally-catlover
It says a lot that it was one of the first words I noticed :-)
6:42 am
rubyfoo
and fu5/20, another word for the same thing (sort of)
I am having trouble with my connection
6:43 am
Sally-catlover
Really? I have a fu 5/20 but didn't know that definition, unless there are two fu words or two me words.
6:43 am
rubyfoo
maybe it's fu*ier
6:43 am
rubyfoo
but they sound the same
6:43 am
Sally-catlover
mmm, I have two fu 5/20s but neither of them mean the same as the me 5/14 I have.

I'm going to buy one of those daylight boxes, meant to do it last week but didn't have time, and have been in Devon at the beginning of the week.
6:50 am
Haz1558
I'll be interested to hear if you find one to be helpful, Sally.
6:51 am
Sally-catlover
They aren't all that expensive, the portable ones, and someone on Babble was saying she puts hers on in the morning while she Babbles. Apparently just half an hour a day can make a difference (or several hours if it's a big grid of course!).
6:52 am
rubyfoo
see you later!
6:52 am
Haz1558
That's a good idea! You can tell people you're having therapy...

7:09 am
FMitch
lol you are probably right, after josh introduced nbt, nothing would surprise me.
7:09 am
Haz1558
We had Douglas introducing the concept of minimal nbt to the max but I don't think it caught on, even with him.
7:10 am
FMitch
I was saying earlier to lynxxx that Merk is in the grid and it is some time since we have seen her.
7:10 am
Sally-catlover
That would be quite a challenge, although I have the lone E , all four corners and just starting on the other U, so I can see a pretty pattern beginning to form.
7:11 am
Haz1558
It's quite a while, you're right, FM. And Flask hasn't chatted for ages either.
7:13 am

Perhaps the winter will bring babblers back to the game.

72 Temple Owl

8:15 am
Anniebrook
we are all babble addicts
8:17 am
NonoNanette
better to be babble addicts than be addicted to other things
8:17 am
Anniebrook
that's for sure, nono
8:19 am
crosshair
nobody needs to try and justify their babble addiction in here,we all understand;)
8:19 am
NonoNanette
yes we have our own support group here
8:19 am
crosshair
but i am not addicted,i have quit many,many times;)
8:20 am
NonoNanette
crossy, it is best to just admit your addiction and get on with it
8:21 am
crosshair
you are qute right of course...crossy dives right into the grid
8:21 am
NonoNanette
there ya go, thats much better!

Sorry - just found it
8:41 am

good thing we are all getting used to some form of electronic reading,seems all the big hospitals in our area are removing all forms of books,magazines and toys from their waiting rooms due to their germ carrying/transferance abilities:/
8:41 am

hi judi
8:42 am
Judi
That is interesting, Crossy. However, everything is being replaced by touch screens. Like there's no germs on those thinks. As if.
8:43 am
NonoNanette
crossy that does make sense, thats why i always take a book or magazine of my own when i go for appointments
8:43 am
crosshair
lol,they are worried about people coughing all over the newspapers and it just being picked up by 300 people as the day goes on...not sure if they tested this all out,but i can see their point
8:44 am
trentsnana
gran - are you still there?
8:44 am
crosshair
so now i just grab my reader...100 books at my fingertips and the daily papers;)
8:44 am

8:46 am
Anniebrook
thanks for the fe clues..but I dont have the fe8, can you clue that one
8:46 am
NonoNanette

all i can think of is ferrite;((
8:47 am
Anniebrook

8:55 am
Riverdance
ah yes thanks Nono and Cadfan
8:55 am
crosshair

I agree with Judi. Replacing magazines with touch screens is not going to reduce germ transference.
8:57 am

name that proper noun! sauron's domain
8:59 am
CadFan
Off to work - BBL
8:59 am
NonoNanette
bye bye Cad
8:59 am
crosshair
they will not suppy touch screen reading material..anything that will be read while you wait YOU will have to bring
8:59 am
crosshair
so it is your stuff and your germs
9:00 am
crosshair
not stuff laying on the waiting room tables
9:01 am
crosshair
thats the idea anyways
9:02 am
crosshair
guess we shall find out one way or another anyways
9:02 am
MollyL
Good, then I can still bring my real books. I always have a book in the car, just in case.
9:03 am
NonoNanette
crossy will they do the same with toys for children in waiting rooms?
9:04 am
MollyL
It's a nice idea and it will certainly be helpful, but people will still be touching surfaces (counter tops/chair rails).
9:04 am
crosshair
indeed molly
9:04 am
crosshair
no more waiting room toys;((
9:05 am
NonoNanette
but those surfaces can be disinfected molly
9:06 am
MollyL
I always brought things for my kids to do when we had to go somewhere that involved waiting.
9:06 am
crosshair
guess they do not want to pay someone 35 dollars an hour to wander around sick kids 500 rooms disinfecting toys;(
9:06 am
crosshair
good plan molly
9:07 am
crosshair
lol! i can remember smoking in emreg!
9:08 am
NonoNanette
yep crossy, but those days are long gone
9:08 am
MollyL
I remember when hospitals had smoking rooms. Now you can't even smoke outside of a hospital.

Nothing quite as stupid as someone in a hospital gown in the middle of winter standing on the boulevard with an IV drip and a cigarette across from the cancer ward at Princess Margaret in Toronto ... I've seen it ...

Mind boggling, doseffing. Truly.

I swear, God must just bang his head against his desk when he sees sh*t like that.
9:14 am

us chemo heads were to busy throwing up to smoke,but i quit in 2002 the year before my first cancer;/
9:17 am
NonoNanette
at least you had the sense to quit before hand crossy! I do feel for those who have cancer and still smoke. With all they have to deal with it would be even harder to quit i qould think
9:17 am
doseffing
well there's a little alcove created by one of the support butresses on the north side of the building that people like to huddle in and smoke because it's out of site from the staff ... ... but God likes to rain on it ... ... but the little old lady still had to have her smoke ... ... I'll bet she died of pneumonia ... not cancer ...
9:18 am
crosshair
it was just luck of the draw for me,i could of still been smoking,but the year before i got tired of paying 15 dollars a day for the habit for the wife and i
9:19 am
rubyfoo
I had an uncle who continued smoking even after one lung was removed and, of course, died of it eventually
9:19 am
crosshair
that smoking alcove is still there
9:19 am

but I should talk ... they cut out twenty centimeters of my colon and two thirds of my liver ... but I still drink way too much caffiene
9:19 am
Judi
My brother quit before his first round of chemo. He started up again after his 2nd round. That's when I suspect he got the "terminal" diagnosis that he didn't tell us about.
9:20 am
NonoNanette
that was my incentive to quit when I did crossy but at a much cheaper time. I quit when they were a $1 a pack. but it was a lot to us at the time
9:20 am
rubyfoo
I did everything right and still got cancer....you can't control your genetics

the fe8 is a metal that contains iron similar to fe7 but with an extra vowel
9:48 am
dianedecoder
Oh now I see... that was an innocent mistake... part of the conversation. We don't spell it like that in Canada though LOL
9:49 am

10:06 am
dianedecoder
I still have my 50 year old corning wear percolator... I haul it out every once in a while... still makes good coffee !
10:06 am

10:09 am
crosshair
sometimes the simple coffee makers are still the best
10:10 am
dianedecoder
well... as a testimonial to Corning... I am still using 2 of the old casserole dishes from wedding gifts... I've broken the lids but found replacement at Salvation Army thrift shop !!
10:10 am
NonoNanette
my hubby worked for Corning for 40 some years
10:10 am
crosshair
my mother in law still has her wedding corning ware from 55 years ago..all of it lol
10:11 am
dianedecoder
I think some of the old pieces are worth a little as collector items LOL There was once a recall on one of the old percolators that had the metal band... one of mine is like that, but no problems.
10:11 am
crosshair
the same coffee cups..everything,used daily
10:11 am

Rush tells it like it is, ruru. *prepares to be pelted with more liberal fruit*
10:19 am
rururocks
*invites Glen Beck over to Judi's house*
10:19 am
Judi
And, it's Limbaugh, btw. Spelling counts (even when Haz isn't here).
10:20 am
Judi
I don't mind Glen Beck either. His show is on past my bedtime, though. So, I don't get to see him much. P.S. Sean Hannity is coming for dessert.
10:20 am
rururocks
aaaaaaaaaaack
10:21 am

can I go on record here?
10:21 am

sean hannity is an absolute moron
10:22 am

*sips tea* You are certainly entitled to your opinion, ruur.

Oops. *ruru* rather.

10:23 am
rururocks
I am sticking with liombaugh
10:24 am
Judi
You might want to call the "Hate Hannity Hotline" then. He plays the messages on air.
10:24 am
rururocks
I don't hate him at all.. he just is irrational
10:25 am
vdddvddd
all three media people mentioned are loud mouthed haters of everything
10:25 am
rururocks
Liombaugh is at least witty
10:25 am
Judi
Sometimes I'd have to agree. When he gets whingy, I turn the channel.
10:26 am
godthaab
How many words today?
10:26 am
vdddvddd
he thinks he's hilarious
10:26 am
rururocks
did he back that nutcase Christine O'Donnel?
10:27 am
crosshair
whoever sean hannity is...lol
10:27 am
Judi
And sometimes, Rush gets a little to arrogant and I have to turn the channel. He didn't really support O'Donnel. He pretty much maligned the ROC for not supporting her like other R candidates.
10:29 am
Judi
S'okay, Crossy. He's an American talk radio/TV host.
10:29 am
crosshair
bpy am i glad i only watch discovery channel or movies:)

Honestly, I don't remember all this leaf blowing crap from when we were kids. Isn't part of the charm of Autumn walking about in the leaves.

It must be a springer thing. Does Hobbit lie with front paws crossed and back legs stretched out?
12:39 pm

willow does. Hobbit tries - she can't get both back legs out straight - she gets 1 straight and the other ends up at right angles

12:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
there is an experient in russia where they are domesticating foxes. as they select out agression, the foxes are changing to look more and more like dogs!
12:47 pm
Haz1558
I call it discrimination.
12:48 pm
Haz1558
Yes, I remember seeing a segment about that in another programme, it was fascinating.
12:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
wellhaz, i am sure if you donated they would let you watch! :P
12:48 pm
Haz1558
I'm saving up. Daughter to get married off and all that.
12:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
especially since all of the domestic secnes were filmed in britain!
12:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
so perhaps they are parts of programe produced there
12:50 pm
Haz1558
It's possible. I'm trying to remember what the main thrust of the programme was about, but there was definitely a segment showing how the wolves/foxes were changing in appearance along with the lack of aggression.
12:50 pm
jmcnrick
bleh i need to see what time i have to leave for work :-(
12:50 pm

why would you want to domesticate foxes?

It was an experiment, crossy, to see if aggression could be bred out.

the segment on wolves was amazing. no matter what the researchers did, with pups they raised at a day old, they turned into wolves.
12:52 pm
Atalante
i'm putting nail varnish on!
12:52 pm
crosshair
when i am around,no one is immune to typonese
12:53 pm

instead of foxes then,they should start with grizzly bears;)
12:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
of course there experiment was not as comprehensive as the one with foxes
12:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
perhaps they could try to tame crossy

jmcnrick
i sent money to my ord while i was in kenya and they took the money out of my account and held it saying my bank had a hold on it for being suspicious and my bank did not (i asked) and then a month later gave the money back to my account

1:39 pm
jmcnrick

1:46 pm
dianedecoder
Xcelle.... are you still there ?
1:46 pm
Haz1558
We still need to sell the new portacabin to recoup some of the money but trade is very slow.
1:47 pm

A portacabin is a kind of mobile room. They're often used as temporary classrooms, in this case we used one as a clubroom for Riding for the Disabled.
1:48 pm
Haz1558
And there's a long tale involving a crane causing damage and general mayhem ensuing.
1:49 pm
Aloyisius
ah so, ty.. and I gather something bad happened to it?
1:49 pm
Aloyisius
ooch.. sorry, hope noone was hurt
1:50 pm
Haz1558
Nobody hurt, thank goodness, but a lot of damage caused by the crane coming where it shouldn't have come.
1:50 pm
Haz1558
So now we're in dispute with the crane owner's insurers over who should pay for the damage.
1:51 pm
Aloyisius
on the news last night... the city of Akron has twice failed to put a Xmas tree in the town square: the first one fell off the crane and cracked, the second one toppled the crane - the crane operator jumped in the nick of time
1:51 pm

Poor crane man...

Haz1558

1:54 pm
Aloyisius
three months? egads.. surely they were not stuck for three months in the mud
1:54 pm
vdddvddd

5:03 pm
cosdem
clue for the so 6/18?
5:03 pm
cosdem
never mind got it
5:04 pm
welki
whew .. was starting to type in a really pathetic clue
5:06 pm
welki
jealous of the chinese restaurant talk .. here (in calgary), even in chinatown you can't find ethnic chinese food, everything is westernized
5:07 pm
welki
i've asked my chinese friends (and thai friends, and vietnamese friends) where they go to eat out (their respective cuisines) .. they don't. they cook at home if they want asian cuisine
5:07 pm
welki
that said, if i made the trip to chinatown, i could buy the ingredients i'd need ... fresh rice noodles, fish, sauces, vegies, etc.
5:08 pm
Dorens
that's true welki. and it might be more satisfying, though time consuming
5:09 pm
welki
yes, but who wants to cook every night after work? not me, that's for sure. i would love a neighborhood diner, like the greek diners in your neck of the woods, to call 'home' ... none of those here either. a culinary wasteland :)
5:10 pm
Dorens
i understand. but if i went to greek diners, i'd be spending a lot more on dinner than i do at home
5:10 pm
welki
<--- will just have to travel to indianapolis to have $1.00 chinese food with cos
5:12 pm
Dorens
well cos was sure right about the list. down to 35 now, much happier
5:12 pm
cosdem
im not in indianapolis though welki
5:12 pm
welki
you never go to the diners? eek! no roumanian tenderloin? moussaka? cheesecake? now that's a crime when i'm sitting here whining *lol*
5:12 pm
Dorens
moussaka once in a while, but it's not nearly as good as a good greek restaurant, or my mother's
5:13 pm
welki
don't know why i picked indianapolis ... i like colorado springs, much better! be there in a while :)
5:14 pm
Anniebrook
hi everyone
5:14 pm
cosdem
ok i'll be waiting.. the porch light will be on
5:14 pm
welki
*shrug* all i'm saying is that i'd like a decent take out meal and, if none available, a decent diner to have an occasional bite to eat. i cook moussaka better here at home, too, but don't always want to
5:14 pm
Dorens
hi annie, how are you?
5:14 pm
Anniebrook
hi dorens, I'm doing okay
5:14 pm
Dorens
come back to nj welki... diners in every town, that's for sure
5:15 pm
Anniebrook
can I get a clue for the first in 6/21?
5:15 pm
Dorens

Pop Tarts

Pinikula
that's pretty sad!
8:52 pm
bichon
Whatever for. Aussies can't eat fun food
8:53 pm
herinfernallady
Yup. Meanies. Customs say there is Geletin in it that comes from Cows that could have mad cow.
8:53 pm
bichon
Geez, we certainly have Poptarts here.
8:54 pm
herinfernallady
Some one at Customs should do their research since the gelatin comes from the hide of the cow and is an enzyme thus not made of actually cow bits
8:54 pm
herinfernallady
We have to have these other pop tart like things and they are not good
8:54 pm
bichon
If I come to austrailia, I will sneak some in and bring yo some
8:54 pm
bichon
Well, you do have vegamite to make up for it
8:55 pm
herinfernallady
I love Vegamite. Ad you guys don't have cordial
8:56 pm
bichon
Vegamite, definitely an acquired taste
8:56 pm
herinfernallady
Um it is like Tang but liquid
8:56 pm
dfmchfhf
poptarts have gelatine? o.0
8:56 pm
bichon
Tang is liquid.
8:56 pm

8:57 pm
lil*monkey
it is a thickening agent, it's in all kinds of things, even cameral film
8:57 pm
herinfernallady
Yep DF but it is an enzyme not a blood or body thing. It is a thing under the skin
8:57 pm
lil*monkey
it comes from the cow's hoof
8:57 pm
herinfernallady
No it doesn't Monkey
8:57 pm
dfmchfhf
os6 alt. spelling of stableman
8:57 pm

8:58 pm

8:58 pm
herinfernallady
Do you want to have a look a the Email I got
8:59 pm
herinfernallady
Gelatine is made from collagen, a protein that comes from animals used for food, like beef or pork. The majority of gelatine used in our products is derived from North American pork. The very small amount of beef used to make our gelatine is primarily from the United States, as well as from several other countries in North and South America, specifically, Canada and Brazil.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) carefully supervises the production of gelatine. During the production process, gelatine changes chemically so that the final product is not the same in composition or identity as it was in the original protein form. Because of this, gelatine isn't considered a meat by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA).
When Kraft utilizes a bovine source for gelatin production, we source only from the hides. The World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), the leading global organization on animal health, has indicated that BSE is not a risk in animal hides, or products thereof.
If you need more information about Gelatine, I would recommend contacting the CFIA directly at www.cfia.ca
8:59 pm

From Kraft

9:00 pm
herinfernallady
I actually asked Kraft when they tried to stop Jello :(
9:01 pm
dfmchfhf
the production process of gelatine should also denature prions associated with bovine spongiform encephalopy anyway :o/
9:02 pm
herinfernallady
These days it mostly comes from piggy
9:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

9:14 pm
Pinikula

9:25 pm
herinfernallady
Pini you can't but you can boil it dry and kill the pot
9:26 pm

re6/24? (definition preferred :o) )
9:34 pm
Jacula
ld - I really do think that we should not define our lives by the criteria if we're wanted or needed on Babble. LOL
9:34 pm
Nef
Jac, it's easy! I used to rush around getting ready for work and try fixing something quick for supper at the same time (I always took my own food)
9:34 pm
lbdawger
A re6.24 occurs when the body experiences a negative g-force sufficient to cause a blood flow from the lower parts of the body to the head. It is the inverse effect of a greyout or brownout, where blood flows away from the head to the lower parts of the body.
9:35 pm
Jacula
re6/24 = crimson colour + not in.
9:35 pm
herinfernallady
ok THAT NI 6 is stupid

I caught sound of a TV programme about eastender earlier. not a soap I've ever watched because it's so confrontational and depressing. However, this was a line from a man's will to his wife. 'To my wife, I leave my wedding ring, so she can sell it and get her roots done, and carry on being the most dumb blonde I've ever known.' Classic! LOL

10:00 pm
MPittore
and now that I think of it...all three of them have been blondes!!!!
10:01 pm
Jacula
I wish I hadn't said how much the sound of her voice and what she was saying annoyed me! But I'm dark-haired, like Dexter.
10:01 pm
Jacula
Dexter didn't ddo her in, though!
10:03 pm
Jacula
Crossy , you're my kind of guy, and you like bacon.
10:03 pm
MPittore
crosshair...my blonde has some gray in it that my magic hairdresser turns back into blonde so my roots sometimes show a bit of blonde/gray and blues eyes and I'm fluffy on the outside!
10:04 pm
Jacula
I'mgoing to have to find some way to stop my tall dark guy with blue eyes from eating all of that bread abd fat, though. I can see he's heading for a heart attack.

Life is made up of so many interesting points of view.
10:28 pm

It really isn't fair when a guy looks better in a dress. ONe of my old drag queen friends taught me how to do make up
10:31 pm
MPittore
I think it's ok if that's what they want then why not? It's worse for someone to have to hide their feelings and who they are like they should be ashamed...that has damaged so many lives...as long as anyone isn't hurting someone or doing illegal bad things than what the heck let life go on I say. I love playing with makeup...I keep up with the new things or else life will pass me by and they will start calling me an old geiser!
10:33 pm
