2:06 am
flosey

didn't know lickety was up!

2:08 am
FMitch

Hey lynxxx! how are you?
2:09 am
lexi

yup, lickity is up, but it says 159 words, not 157...
2:09 am
FMitch

oh lexi is right!
2:09 am
FMitch

I've got Volley list in my profile if that will help you lexi
2:09 am
lynxxx

OKish. How is everything in the countryside?
2:10 am
flosey

do6/27 might be one of the extras
2:10 am
lexi

I always kick myself when I spend forever searching for a word, and find out it's only on lickity and not babble, argh...:)
2:10 am

No frost this morning but am still waking up.
2:11 am

{{flosey and lynxx}} hello FM
2:26 am
rubyfoo

it is very cold this AM after high winds yesterday
2:27 am
flosey

we had high winds last night ruby, power was off for just over 3 hours - included most of Vancouver Island
2:28 am
FMitch

Morning ruby
2:28 am
lynxxx

BBS Strew is insisting we play
2:28 am

Stew too
2:29 am

lol TTFN lynxxx
2:29 am
FMitch

Do you have back up ower flosey?
2:30 am
FMitch

*power even!
2:30 am
flosey

yes FM, we have a generator but don't bother with it for short periods
2:31 am
FMitch

must be good to know it is there for severe conditions tho'.
2:31 am
flosey

I was alone, so it was strange just sitting in the dark with a couple of candles - blew them out in case I fell asleep!
2:32 am
flosey

yes, we've only had to use it once or twice
2:32 am
rubyfoo

fortunately, our power lines are underground, so whenthere are freakishly high winds, we still keep the power. It does go out, sometimes, for no apparent reason. It must be a French company.....lol
2:33 am
FMitch

I love candle light, will quite often have several lit on the desk rather than use electric (in the winter).

lol ruby.
2:34 am
flosey

oh lucky, ruby, ours aren't - hubby was at the bridge club and said there were signs where trees had fallen across the main road - road crews are very quick to keep the road clear though
2:34 am
lynxxx

Back. He was happy with a quick brush. Greyhounds lose so much hair!
2:35 am
flosey

really, lyn, but it's quite short isn't it?
2:36 am
lynxxx

Yes. But it gets everywhere though - not as bad now as when we first got him (they get heavier coats when in kennels)
2:39 am
flosey

guess they don't get out to run enough when in kennels?
2:41 am
FMitch

Having a hard time believing that there is an 11 (never mind a 9 and 10) in this grid today.
2:41 am
lynxxx

I am sure he used to get to run more when he was in kennels...we have a small house on a small block - he can't get much speed up here!
2:41 am
flosey

it's 5, 8, 9, 10, 11
2:41 am
lynxxx

bet it is a ph word
2:42 am
flosey

no, fr
2:42 am
FMitch

on the other hand he could be thinking 'I love this slower pace of life' :)
2:42 am
FMitch

Ah thanks flosey, haven't got to the f's yet but will remember that.
2:43 am
flosey

for sure, if he's getting older
2:43 am
flosey

should say, as he gets older!
2:43 am
lynxxx

I am (house) painting at the moment. After his morning walk yesterday, he made himself a lovely 'nest' in our bed and stayed there all day
2:44 am
FMitch

Does he have the occasional moments of madness lynxxx?
2:44 am
flosey

just keeping it warm for you lyn
2:44 am
lynxxx

They are extremely lazy Flosey - couch potatoes
2:44 am
flosey

ah, seems surprising!
2:45 am
lynxxx

Usually screams around the house in the afternoon for a few minutes
2:46 am
FMitch

lol that was what I was imagining.
2:46 am
flosey

in Ontario, they had a Greyhound Coach Line and a running greyhound painted on side of all busses
2:47 am
lynxxx

They recommend a brisk 30 minutes walk once a day. If you want them to run with you (certainly not me!) you have to build them up to it. They are sprinters not really runners
2:47 am
flosey

interesting, lyn
2:48 am
rubyfoo

I comnb Ruby most days and get incredible quantities of fur our of her, enough to knit a small dog! And she is still messy
2:48 am
rubyfoo

when my husband was a teenager, he worked at the greyhound track in Miami and didn't like the dogs as they became so neurotic from never catching the "rabbit" and being muzzled the whole race
2:49 am
saanichcat

Good evening Flosey! Thanks for the"f" words. Now I can go to bed -- 24 left for tomorrow. Goodnight all!
2:49 am
flosey

that would be very frustrating for them
2:49 am
flosey

hi there saanichcat
2:49 am
flosey

well done then, I still have 40 to go
2:50 am
saanichcat

wow Fosey, you'll be finished tonight!
2:50 am
FMitch

I am sadly lacking in the word department due to chatting, so am going to dive in for a while.
2:50 am
rubyfoo

and they were very testy!
2:51 am
saanichcat

Flosey, I mean. How's your power?
2:51 am
lynxxx

There was a race here this last weekend. The lead greyhound took off in another direction after a (stupid stupid) live rabbit ran across the track
2:51 am
rubyfoo

you always have a way with words FM, which I sorely lack!
2:51 am
lynxxx

hi Sannichat
2:51 am
flosey

oh, it was only off for just over 3 hours last night Saanichcat, how about you?
2:51 am
rubyfoo

no wild rabbits in Miami Beach!
2:51 am
saanichcat

Heya Lynxx!
2:52 am
lynxxx

alligators eat them!?
2:52 am
FMitch

:) ruby and Hi saanichat
2:52 am
rubyfoo

no alligators on the beach, either! hahah
2:52 am
saanichcat

Flosey, not sure, we had a so'wester which really does me in - filled the bathtub and went to bed with a lantern and a book.
2:53 am
saanichcat

Hello FM!
2:54 am
saanichcat

For those nor in remote areas, the water won't work either as the well is electric dependent
2:54 am
saanichcat

so the full bathtub is so you have enough water to flush
2:54 am
flosey

we're on well, so depend on the power
2:55 am
flosey

and always have tub full when we have high winds
2:55 am
lynxxx

How much does it cost to dig a well?
2:56 am
flosey

no idea now lyn, that was done before we moved here - builder looked after it
2:56 am
saanichcat

Lynxx- depends how deep. Genarally about 3-6- grand complete with pump, pressure tank etc.
2:57 am
lynxxx

I see. Do you deal with your own waste water and sewerage individually as well?
2:57 am
flosey

our well is artesian
2:57 am
flosey

yes, we have septic systems
2:59 am
saanichcat

The water is always clean cold and pure. And our own water treatment plant aka septic is great.
3:00 am
saanichcat

So how do you make use of the artesian well, is it about the procedure? Curiousity - I don't know anyone but you who has one.
3:00 am
lynxxx

TY I find all that interesting. Things that we take for granted here - even though we are a large country. We have septic in outlying country areas but I don't know of anyone with their own well.
3:00 am
flosey

yes, the newer septic systems are much improved - some friends seem to have theirs pumped out a lot
3:01 am
flosey

small village has local water and sewerage - we're in rural area
3:02 am
saanichcat

in my outlying area everyone has well and septic, thousands of us
3:02 am
rubyfoo

many of the French locals steal the water coming down from the mountains by diverting the little streams that run through their properties. I can understand it, as water is very expensive here, but it's still illegal
3:02 am
flosey

there again, Saanich, we weren't here at the time, I believe they drill until they hit a seam
3:03 am
flosey

we are on a rock!!
3:03 am
flosey

I mean, our Island is one huge rock
3:04 am
saanichcat

The downside to this independence is that the water is very very hard. Things like kettles, dishwashers, hot water tanks get ruined. I use gallons of vinegar!
3:04 am
saanichcat

I dowsed my own well!
3:05 am
FMitch

So interesting as Lynxxx says we do take so much for granted.
3:05 am
lynxxx

wow!
3:05 am
flosey

we have filtration system - several tanks
3:06 am
FMitch

That is a gift saani, Mum had to get a dowser in and he found a spring in the basement - which explained why it kept flooding
3:06 am
flosey

we have manganese in the water and before we had the filtration system installed, you could see black lining the toilet tanks, so imagine what it was doing to the pipes!
3:06 am
saanichcat

Flosey I would do that too if it wernt so expensive. I also have an underground stream. Apparently it is wise to register the.
3:07 am
flosey

took a while to get it flushed out, but now everything is clean
3:07 am
FMitch

yay got the f words - thanks flosey.
3:07 am
saanichcat

Thanks FM. I too have helped a lot of people. It is a gift for which I am thankful.
3:07 am
lynxxx

are you talking about house pipes or peoples pipes Flosey?
3:08 am
flosey

you really have to watch these guys, we got taken (being newcomers) and was later told that the plumber who did the work use to brag about gouging the newbies
3:08 am
saanichcat

hahahaha!
3:08 am
flosey

lol, house pipes
3:09 am
saanichcat

Right on Flosey, ESPECIALLY with the new septic rules.
3:09 am
flosey

It doesn't pay to have a home built when you live 2000 or so miles away
3:10 am
lynxxx

You were game
3:10 am
flosey

so true lyn
3:13 am
flosey

also, a good idea to have a written contract - not just a hand-shake
3:13 am
lynxxx

ah, the penny just dropped for me with the f too. TY Flosey
3:13 am
flosey

wtg
3:14 am
FMitch

Topical for over here lynxxx but not for you going into summer or is it still spring?
3:16 am
lynxxx

Going into Summer in a couple of weeks...Spring has been pretty cool - with lots of rain! Gardens looks great and our dams are over half full. The drought has really broken
3:16 am
FMitch

and the fr8 is what happens to my hair in the misty moisty foggy weather we have had recently.
3:17 am
lynxxx

There is no zzeds here though
3:17 am
FMitch

That is good news re the dams, hope it doesn't get too dry during the summer.
3:17 am
flosey

no
3:17 am
saanichcat

thanks FM!
3:20 am
FMitch

yw :)
3:21 am

Need to go and find myself some food. Hate it when I am by myself! BBL

TTFN lynxxx, Im going to have to face up to the working day soon :)

rubyfoo

back, 58 so far
3:59 am
lynxxx

Just came back too Ruby
3:59 am
rubyfoo

our water is extremely hard, too. Maybe that is why everything wears out
4:00 am
lynxxx

like your washing machine?
4:00 am
rubyfoo

uh huh
4:00 am
rubyfoo

I still didn't get a new one, just have to go in and switch the settings twice each load
4:01 am
rubyfoo

I think, too, when my son was here, he and his wife overloaded the machine
4:01 am
rubyfoo

EXPERTS!
4:01 am

Hello, All :-)

Hiya Zooz
4:18 am
rubyfoo

back again, doorbell this time!
4:18 am
zoozzoom

Although if you take away the first letter & change a letter in my phantom, you have a word :-)
4:18 am
lynxxx

what has happened with the court case Ruby?
4:19 am
rubyfoo

and the plural, zzoozz!
4:19 am
zoozzoom

Yep :-)
4:19 am
lynxxx

and take away 2 letters from that and add a 'martini glass'
4:19 am
rubyfoo

first decision will happen on Friday. That is the criminal part against the dog owner. Then, my husband needs to be evaluated by a court-appointed MD to determine how much we will ask for in damages.
4:19 am
rubyfoo

Thank you for asking, this has been a terrible, bleak time
4:20 am
lynxxx

It doesn't sound like he is getting any better? not even with v isitors?
4:20 am
rubyfoo

I should know the glass since husband has a martini every day! putting those drunk monkeys to work
4:21 am
rubyfoo

no, he has a lot of pain in his back where the dog took him down. The arm has healed surprisingly well, however.
4:21 am
lynxxx

but are his wounds healed?
4:21 am
rubyfoo

he remains severely traumatized.
4:21 am
rubyfoo

and he is much diminished....
4:22 am
rubyfoo

famous, though, he's been in both local papers, not by name, but by village
4:23 am
lynxxx

I realise he is old but it is bad to hear that he has gone down so quickly - an extra burden you don't need either.
4:24 am
rubyfoo

I feel very sorry for him, but he still irritates me! Bad Ruby
4:24 am
lynxxx

It is understandable Ruby
4:25 am
zoozzoom

Can`t believe there are 15 `P`s
4:25 am
rubyfoo

But I think I should be nicer! It is just very hard
4:25 am
rubyfoo

no, zzoozz, you are making that up! hahah

I only have three of them..lol

maria sings sweetly, but she's far too fond of that soporific camel for my taste *gort ducks under rock again*
5:40 am

So many memories are reignighted by just a bar or two of music.

70's and 80's music was my time.

I am a stealth Babbler. I 1st discovered this problem about a year ago when the chat became filled with so many people. I felt like I didn't know everyone any more.
6:21 am
Patxxx

That's me then. Thought it might be but I am incapable of remembering to switch over and end up putting my words found in the chat log. I can multi task at everything else but not Babble.
6:22 am

6:22 am

As long as I've outed myself, clues for the DI's please.
6:23 am

6:24 am

I see we joined about the same time. It was a smaller community then.
6:24 am

Norma, I'm afraid I don't have that 1 yet; but, I'll look.

Di** the perfume and out of s*** and pluralize it
6:26 am

Sometimes, poss middle of the night here, nobody responds so I gave up. I felt I was being rude trying to chip in.
6:26 am
Jacula

Hi. Just got my fireworks & can tell you there IS no os8 word.
6:26 am

6:28 am

Hi une. and ty,Norma.
6:32 am
Uneaixoise

re what was said earlier, the chog has definitely grown and grown and grown -- and I think we all, at various times, feel ignored -- sometimes our comments just get lost in the general flurry . . .
6:33 am
Jacula

Gramma - the other extra word on the Lickety list is do6/27.
6:33 am
Norma

I think that is probably the case Une if a theme is going and you ask for a clue people are usually to busy typing to read the chog lol
6:34 am
Jacula

So - os8 & do6 are the extra words. Hope that helps.
6:34 am

but still don't have 8, 10 and 11, dumb ruby!
6:49 am
Trifioso

hello babble friends. In my family, we say "I have to hotten this up" if our tea or whatnot has gone cold. Having grown up saying it, it never occurred to me that it wasn't a real word. but I guess not!
6:50 am
rubyfoo

hahah trif. and hello. How are you?
6:50 am
Norma

For the 8 ruby take off the vowel , for the 10 pluralise the 9
6:50 am
rubyfoo

ok, putting monkeys to work. they're a little bit tipsy from lunch
6:50 am
Norma

For the 11 add a vowel and cons to the 8
6:50 am
Trifioso

TIRED. Tertiare went to a concert last night, and I was the driver on the other end, the one who picked them up off the subway.....at midnight! and then the drive home....zzzzzz
6:51 am
rubyfoo

thank you for the hand-feeding, norma. I am hopeless without a lot of help!
6:51 am

Have a restful day today then Trif

You are welcome ruby
6:52 am

wow, one short of half thanks to norma!
6:52 am
Trifioso

working today norma, and still dog sitting the BEASTS, so not a restful day. but it's all good
6:53 am
Norma

Well enjoy Trif lol
6:54 am
Trifioso

(whispering) so far this dog sitting gig is a nightmare. everyone told me I was nuts to do it -- they were right. shhhh
6:54 am
rubyfoo

if I ever find a dog-sitter who is willing to hand-feed my autistic dog, then I may someday get another holiday
6:54 am
Norma

How many you sitting Trif??
6:54 am
rubyfoo

even husband won't do it
6:55 am
Trifioso

2. one is an american shepherd who weighs 125 pounds and pees CONSTANTLY inside or out, the other is a unbelievably fat yorkie type thing
6:55 am
Norma

I was allowed our little boy on the condition he went into Kennels.. we found amazing kennels and he loves it there
6:55 am
rubyfoo

they sound awful! not like our lovely, gentle chows
6:56 am
Trifioso

i need the money.
6:56 am
Norma

Oh Trif I hope you have lots of newspapers lol
6:56 am
Trifioso

I remind myself that each and every time I am out walking them, like today in the driving rain
6:56 am
rubyfoo

Max has never been off the property since his arrival. He is much better than when he first came, but without Prozac, he'd still be a mess
6:56 am
Trifioso

the one have the most fun is my dog, diggity. he is so loving the company!!!!
6:56 am
Norma

Was he badly treated ruby ...
6:57 am
rubyfoo

that is so cute! does he chase the fat one?
6:57 am
rubyfoo

no, I just think that in order to get black chows, they are too inbred. He is very beautiful, though.
6:57 am
Norma

Doesn't Diggity get territorial ??
6:57 am
rubyfoo

and couldn't be sweeter or more gentle
6:58 am
Trifioso

not much, but he should. I swear, I am conflicted -- the little one is SO fat....part of me feels like I should turn this into a little fat camp for the poor thing, and the other part feels like I should follow the owners wishes and feed her the assigned amount
6:58 am
Norma

I don't think I have ever seen a black chow ... how unusual
6:58 am
rubyfoo

we had another black chow, a female, absolutely perfect but she never reached her full size and died at 2, I think of a heart anomaly.
6:58 am
rubyfoo

same breeder in Canada
6:59 am
Trifioso

Diggity gets territorial over his food dish, which the littlest dog thinks belongs to her...well, she thinks ALL the dishes belong to her, but other than that, he is so chuffed with the play date he cares naught
6:59 am
rubyfoo

my Ruby was getting chubby and I changed her diet and she is now the correct size, I can feel her ribs again
6:59 am
Norma

It is a shame they don't breed out the nasty things but they just seem to breed In more of the worse traits
7:00 am
Trifioso

the best part of having the shepherd around is that *I* am certainly going to tone up, and that is a good thing! All that walking is very good for me.
7:00 am
Norma

Perhaps the running around after each other will get the little on the lose some weight Trif
7:00 am
rubyfoo

this was a great breeder who destroyed any aggressive pups, but I think she either missed Max's shyness OR she knew we'd give him a loving home as we had 4 of her other chows over the years
7:01 am
rubyfoo

many of her dogs were international grand champions, but not black ones!
7:01 am
Trifioso

and now I appreciate low-maintenance Diggity all the more. He doesn't have to go out on the leash, and he lets me know when he needs to go out, and basically just delights in most things (car ride! my favorite! Kids! my favorite! oooh- bath = bummer. Kids! my favorite! Beach! my favorite!)
7:02 am
Trifioso

"destroyed any aggressive pups" is a troubling sentence
7:02 am
rubyfoo

diggity sounds like the perfect dog!
7:02 am
Trifioso

he is a real doggy dog, which I do love, I must say. and he is WICKED smart.
7:02 am
Norma

My little boy is a Jorkie a cross between a Jack Russell and a Yorkshire terrier and he has the best traits of both breeds he is so laid back he is horizontal he even lets our two cats push him around
7:02 am
rubyfoo

evidently, chows have very big litters plus a bad reputation. Not one of our five chows has ever bitten anyone even though they are wonderful watch dogs.
7:03 am
Trifioso

LOL norma. sounds like a keeper!
7:03 am
Trifioso

chows are what, a chinese breed in origin? Japanese?
7:03 am
rubyfoo

my husband loves Jack Russells, but I have only had chows, so have only known a few other dogs
7:04 am
rubyfoo

Chinese palace guard dogs with violet tongues, black gums and gorgeous, boxy bodies.
7:04 am
Trifioso

I like to play with other people's JRs, but I think they might be a little too spazzy for me personally
7:04 am
Norma

Jack Russells are really intelligent dogs ... but I think that passed by our little boy he is really dumb
7:04 am
rubyfoo

big heads but with the independent personalities of cats
7:05 am
rubyfoo

they are not noted for their intelligence, but that may be because they are not willing to follow instructions
7:06 am
rubyfoo

....like herding cats. However, they are very clean and housebreak themselves. We've only had 2 "accidents" over 20 years and 5 dogs

i have actually tried to figure out if there is any way i could have it altered for more everyday use, but i cant think of anything...
8:54 am
sprite

perhaps keep it in pristine state and give it to your eldest daughter later.
8:54 am
EvaNadine

we all like to think our daughters would want to wear our dresses, but how often does that ever happen?
8:55 am
sprite

almost never, lol
8:56 am
EvaNadine

my friends friend actually just got married. she + her hubs have a VERY retro, rockabilly style, and she had her grandmothers dress altered + slightly updated and wore it.
it was amazing how much it was her style!
8:57 am

oh that is wonderful!
8:57 am

i like to think my dress is classic and timeless, but they never are, are they?

4:00 pm
dianedecoder

I'm not rushing it yet either ... although they are playing Christmas music in the stores already
4:01 pm
MollyL

There are those who like two solid months of Christmas decorations and music. Then there are those, like me, who prefer to start all that mid-December. It's all good.
4:02 pm

I could do without the winter season all together including the holidays, everything is so commericial and starts way too soon
4:06 pm
m9f9l

we don't tart christmas decorations until dec 7th. we can get our tree any time after that. and it has to be down by jan 5th
4:07 pm
MollyL

I agree Peri. It's way overdone. I don't think I'll really get into Christmas again until we have little people in the clan again. Still waiting on my son and girlie-in-law to make that happen.
4:07 pm
dianedecoder

and I'm waiting for the gread grands.... the little ones enhance the magic for sure
4:08 pm
hurshy

i object to thanksgiving being shafted, decor moves straight from halloween to christmas these days.
4:09 pm
dianedecoder

we don't have that problem... our Thanksgiving is always the 2nd Monday in October.
4:09 pm
m9f9l

and I don't like the tone of the commercials either. We heard one yesterday with a sarcastic elf.
4:09 pm
MollyL

Not here Hursh. We have two weeks of Thanksgiving decorations before the Christmas stuff goes up.
4:09 pm
periwinkle

it was a good day at the food pantry today. we got a huge donation of canned and packaged from a local private girls school.
4:09 pm
m9f9l

sweet!
4:09 pm
hurshy

which is a much more sensible time for it anyway - by the end of november, everything is grey, the leaves have fallen - mid october is much more festive.
4:09 pm
dianedecoder

awesome, peri
4:09 pm
MollyL

In our home that is. The stores do go from Halloween to Christmas with five minutes of Thanksgiving in between.
4:10 pm
m9f9l

my scouts will be doing food drive soon
4:10 pm
hurshy

oh, Molly, i'm only a poser, i'm really in the states
4:10 pm
hurshy

but canadian thanksgiving is much more ideal.
4:10 pm
dianedecoder

ours is right near to Columbus day, which you celebrate in the U.S.
4:10 pm
periwinkle

15 left, my stomach is growling, bbs
4:11 pm
MollyL

I would much rather have two months between Thanksgiving and Christmas than one. Canada does it right.
4:11 pm
hurshy

we DON'T celebrate columbus day at PC places
4:11 pm
hurshy

(PC as in politically correct, not personal computer)
4:12 pm
jmcnrick

hi all
4:13 pm
jmcnrick

most people around me call it indigenous peoples day
4:13 pm
hurshy

today i was behind a car whose license plate was ###-MEW :)
4:15 pm
jmcnrick

what does that mean?
4:15 pm
MollyL

JMC, Thanksgiving or Columbus Day?
4:15 pm
hurshy

it means i feel happy because i love cats and they say MEW!
4:16 pm
jmcnrick

columbus day
4:16 pm
hurshy

### just means i don't remember the number part.
4:17 pm
hurshy

oh the other day i saw one that was simply "RUBBER". i wondered - masseur? rubber company owner? any other guesses?
4:17 pm
m9f9l

the rubber hits the road
4:17 pm
hurshy

advocate for safe sex, perhaps?
4:18 pm
m9f9l

I was just gonna write that hursh!
4:18 pm
hurshy

oh yes, i thought of that too m9, forgot about it just now
4:18 pm
jmcnrick

an eraser is a rubber and so are boots
4:18 pm
hurshy

but if you owned a company that made boots or erasers wouldn't you get "RUBBERS"?
4:19 pm
hurshy

whereas if you just made rubber, you'd go singular.
4:19 pm
m9f9l

maybe it was a hitman
4:19 pm
jmcnrick

maybe for the boots but a rubber as an eraser is singular
4:19 pm
hurshy

oooooh, scary! it WAS a black SUV!
4:19 pm
jmcnrick

i thought of that too m9
4:19 pm
MollyL

There is no telling what people mean with vanity plates. Before they started getting scrutinized, someone got away with EMTAE. Imagine what that would look like in your rear view mirror.
4:20 pm
dianedecoder

lol
4:20 pm
jmcnrick

yikes!
4:20 pm
hurshy

but what i mean is, jmc, you make LOTS of erasers at your company, i would think you would want to get the plural one.
4:20 pm
hurshy

EMTAE is funny! it would be bad if it were UOYKCUF.
4:20 pm
jmcnrick

some states limit the letters
4:21 pm
hurshy

there was also SWMMOM, which i assume means her kid is a swimmer.
4:21 pm
hurshy

a single white male mom would be weird.
4:23 pm
m9f9l

yeah.. if you saw a vanity plate that said "teapot" I'd doubt you'd think.."hey.. maybe the driver's last name is Simmerer!"
4:23 pm
hurshy

come to think of it, SWFMOM or SWMDAD would be good ways to advert your availability while warning people who can't handle it that you have a kid.
4:23 pm
hurshy

what WOULD you think if you saw teapot?
4:23 pm
kje

do6?
4:24 pm
jmcnrick

dome
4:24 pm
m9f9l

they collect them maybe?
4:24 pm
jmcnrick

sorry that was in answer to hursh
4:24 pm
hurshy

there is no do6, it's a typo in lickety.
4:24 pm
dianedecoder

kje apparently do 6 is an error
4:24 pm
kje

ty
4:24 pm
m9f9l

or at least a discrepancy
4:24 pm
kje

what is the other error
4:24 pm
hurshy

maybe you would think that the person was short and stout
4:25 pm
jmcnrick

that seems to be happening a lot lately
4:25 pm
m9f9l

rofl.. which was true!!!LOL
4:25 pm
hurshy

oooh, i got one!
4:25 pm
hurshy

*feels smart*
4:26 pm
hurshy

what do you mean, what is the other error? what makes you think there is another one?
4:26 pm
jmcnrick

lol
4:26 pm
m9f9l

hold on to that feeling.. this grid will try and take it away!
4:26 pm
hurshy

oh, i finished the grid, so i'm ok.
4:26 pm
kje

b/c babble lists 157 and lickety lists 159
4:26 pm
m9f9l

grid has 157 words... lickety has 159
4:26 pm
hurshy

oh. interesting.
4:27 pm
jmcnrick

echo echo echo
4:27 pm
hurshy

well i haven't heard the other error get mentioned.
4:27 pm
hurshy

and it didn't happen to come up in the 10 words for which i listed. so it probably isn't in the E's, F's, P's, S's, or T's.
4:28 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm i am getting nowhere fast in this grid
4:28 pm
dianedecoder

4:32 pm
jmcnrick

i am going to be walking down the Mall and they will ask me where i am originally from and then ask me if I can draw the shape of Texas
4:32 pm
jmcnrick

I warned them that my accent was light but genuine
4:32 pm
hurshy

when i was a kid, i had a puzzle of the states and i would close my eyes and my sister or my mom would hand me a piece and i would feel it and say which state it was and i even got good enough to distinguish wyoming from colorado.
4:32 pm

I'm kind of fascinated by how patriotic some Americans seem to be. I mean, I love England to pieces, but I think that's because I've experienced living elsewhere and know that if I'd stayed there, my life would be very different and very difficult.

Charles lost out big time JMC. And look what he settled for.
4:47 pm
jacq

NB, may i ask who Frank is? and does he make you happy?
4:47 pm
jmcnrick

i guess i am not horsey enough! lol
4:47 pm
Nancy Boy

Plus, the royals are just the biggest bunch of Hooray Henrys you'll ever come across. Grossss. Real RAs ;)
4:47 pm
cosdem

Agreed Molly. Camilla looks like a horse. But then again so does Charles
4:47 pm
kje

py5?
4:48 pm
hurshy

charles did NOT settle. camilla was his first love, and they sundered them because he was thought too young to marry. it just shows you what a mistake it is to make people marry people they don't want to marry instead of the people they do want to marry.
4:48 pm
jacq

thats why they changed their attitude
4:49 pm
jmcnrick

well just because they sundered them she could have waited until he was older ... i think that story is a case of a woman wanting it both ways
4:49 pm
hurshy

i suppose, though i don't know enough about the sundering to know if camilla thought that was just that, or what.
4:50 pm
jmcnrick

clearly she was more than ready to pick back up
4:50 pm
cosdem

I have no respect for anyone who allows herself to be the mistress of the future King. She just helped the Royals look even worse.
4:50 pm
Nancy Boy

Yes to both questions, Jac :) Frank is my saviour, my flatmate and my best friend. But it's probably quickest to call him my boyfriend ;)
4:50 pm
m9f9l

but not your cupid.LOL
4:50 pm
jacq

the people in that calss (uber snobby) live differently from us mortals, they have affairs etc and as long as they are discrete a blind eye is turned
4:50 pm
hurshy

i still blame the parents.
4:51 pm
hurshy

i still blame the parents.
4:51 pm
jmcnrick

so she should stayed a virgin for the sake of England?
4:51 pm
jacq

class lol not calss
4:51 pm
jmcnrick

lol
4:51 pm
jacq

glad to see you happy NB, you deserve it
4:51 pm
hurshy

elizabeth I did, jmc!
4:51 pm
cosdem

No she shouldn't have stayed a virgin. I doubt she was a virgin when Chuck and Di married anyway.
4:51 pm
kje

py5?
4:51 pm
m9f9l

fireworks. was being TOTALLY blind! last word pe5
4:52 pm
jmcnrick

and you KNOW that is not true hurshy
4:52 pm
jmcnrick

whoo hooo m9
4:52 pm
cosdem

But if she was so horny she could always have gone to a pub. There's a lot of desperate men who would sleep with a woman who looks like a horse :)
4:52 pm
hurshy

i believe camilla was already married when charles married diana, so that is a safe bet.
4:52 pm
m9f9l

robot ending
4:52 pm
Nancy Boy

Mmm, thank you Jac :) there's been a very long story getting up to this point. Oh, and you know the babbler JC? He played cupid for us ;)

ahhhh nice to know we have a cupid in the group
4:53 pm
cosdem

I'm biased :) I know Di wasn't the wife of the year either but I've met her once. I like her :P
4:53 pm
jmcnrick

Di seemed to have gotten the short end of the stick
4:54 pm
hurshy

i wonder with all he's seen, how hard it will be for william to have a successful marriage.
4:54 pm
jmcnrick

well at least he had the sense to live with her first
4:54 pm
hurshy

oh my gosh
4:54 pm
jacq

it woild be awful to be married to someone who loved someone else, regardless of status or wealth
4:55 pm
kje

next to last st5?
4:55 pm
hurshy

they just said something on tv about eva longoria and tony parker splitting up, and i swear i was JUST wondering like two days ago when that would happen. i feel prophetic.
4:55 pm
Nancy Boy

I don't really mind. I'm not particularly fond of any of the royals. Seems to me that all they do is complain - as if any of them really have anything to moan about!
4:55 pm
hurshy

(and i do not follow celebrity gossip at all - the thought just popped in my head)
4:56 pm
m9f9l

sure you don't have second to last and are looking for last??
and now for the rest of the st5
4:56 pm
jmcnrick

i think being a royal has to suck since your life is so subscribed
4:56 pm
hurshy

tell me a st5... (swap letters 3 and 4 for the last)

i don't think camilla looks like an equine. she does enjoy riding them, i believe...
4:58 pm
cosdem

I can't believ that I still have to get NBT! I usually do that first thing; but am still missing the 1st column S and the second column O!
7:27 pm
Nef

Every stupid S I get works on the left one, not the right one!
7:28 pm
lbdawger

i hate to have to so** thru and match socks.
7:28 pm
Nef

that's for the left S, lbd. But I did just get the O (finally!)
7:29 pm
lbdawger

tell me a st*** about your childhood
7:29 pm
dan2bit

sr4 babblet comes from left
7:30 pm
Nef

that's also from the right one (as was the last clue; I got my lefts and rights mixed up. I need the left S in the first column, third row
7:31 pm
lbdawger

she needs the top row 4th column S
7:31 pm
Nef

thanks dan2! That's it!
7:31 pm
dan2bit

if you mix up the middle of lbd's clue you'll get one that comes from the left S also
7:32 pm
Nef

thanks!
7:34 pm
Nef

lbd; I always confusr my lefts and rights! I am a lefty; and then for over 40 years I've listened to a patients' heart and lungs and had to chart it the opposite of what *I* thought it was!
7:35 pm
lbdawger

finito and with Lickety's bonus words too!
7:35 pm
Nef

YAY, LBD!!!! WTG!!!!!!

7:38 pm
Jacula

Nef - I'am an ambidetrous lefty, as in only do precision stuff with left hand. I've never confused my sides. Mind you, I've never tried to listen to see if Dr Who ha a heartbeat.
7:39 pm
Jacula

Missed the all important 'x' out of that word.
7:40 pm
Jacula

Mind you, not all precision work is left-handed. I could no more wield a pair of scissors in my left hand than fly.
7:41 pm
Jacula

And when sewing, though the needle and thread is in my left hand, my right side guides what happens.
7:41 pm
Nef

Jac, I'm such a lefty that I once injured my right elbow and found tht the only thing I used my right hand for was turning on my car and the automatic shift. Oh, and curling my hair (back in the day before curling irons were popular)
7:42 pm

7:42 pm
HarryHood

7:44 pm
Jacula

It's better to be ambidextrous, I think.
7:44 pm
Nef

7:47 pm
Nef

they were fun to find all of them
7:47 pm
Jacula

But it won't be those words people just finishing are looking for. It'll be the singulars or plurals they thought they'd put in, or the ite endings.
7:48 pm

9:44 pm
cms1

Just starting and I usually can rip off a bunch of easy ones but this grid looks like it will be quite a bit harder tonight for me!
9:44 pm
stidmama

it's not easy after the first 80
9:45 pm
stidmama

but there are some rather nice words, nicer because they are not common
9:46 pm
stidmama

"babbling bumbling band of babboons" (yes, we are watching harry potter movie #4) LOVE this line!
9:49 pm
stidmama

now down to 38 and getting sleepy. *sigh*
9:50 pm
lbdawger

grab the list, stiddy.
9:51 pm
stidmama

no LBD, the only way I can list nowadays is to flip between screens. my eyesight isn't good enough to do parallel windows... and no expert for mac
9:51 pm
lbdawger

oh bummer. it would make it go so much faster for you.
9:52 pm
stidmama

it would. I would finish WAY more grids if I still had access to expert
9:53 pm
lbdawger

we really need to get lickety to make expert work on macs
9:53 pm
stidmama

but in a way it's a much better challenge. I feel so much more accomplished when I DO finish! LOL
9:54 pm

Jellen

Late hello, jilli!
10:46 pm
jillibus

Not many of these words are meaningful to me
10:47 pm
Nef

the fo 6/39 is 2 word combo, Min. synonim for the number after 3 and what you say when you leave here
10:47 pm
Dindrane

Sorry, Minver--I don't have that one either. :(
10:47 pm
jillibus

10:48 pm

(Sorry -- in a bad mood because of this grid)
10:57 pm
Nef

YAY, jilli!!! WTG!!!!
10:57 pm
Minveryork

Congratulations jillibus on your fireworks! Way to go!
10:57 pm
Jellen

That's interesting, jilli...
10:57 pm
jillibus

Thanks, you nice people!
10:58 pm
Jellen

This grid is giving me a headache...
10:58 pm
Dindrane

I like your peace crane a lot, Jilli. :)
10:58 pm
jillibus

Don't let it, jellen -- just go to morewords, lol! Even then, it's not easy.
10:59 pm
Nef

jilli, I'm giving up and going to bed. I do like your origami crane; we used to make them all of the time when my son was young. I just don't keep up with the daily icons so didn't realize what it was!
10:59 pm
Jellen

G'night, Nef
11:00 pm
jillibus

Thanks, dindrane. Sometimes I wonder if icon themes should be discontinued.
11:00 pm
Nef

Good night All. Happy Babbling!
11:00 pm
jillibus

See -- people don't even look to see what they're about.
11:01 pm
Nef

jilli, *I* don't think that it should be discontinued. Even though I don't participate; when I DO play frequently I learn a lot readingf up about other people's icons
11:01 pm
Minveryork

dan2bit complimented my icon today which was nice.
11:01 pm
Dindrane

I agree with Nef... helps me learn.
11:02 pm
Dindrane

Makes up for the frustration of the game itself. :p
11:02 pm
Minveryork

Even though I do not always follow the theme, I don't think they should be stopped.Especially not on Friday
11:02 pm
jillibus

Your icon is beautiful, Min
11:02 pm
Minveryork

Thank you jillibus!
11:02 pm
Dindrane

It is!
11:03 pm
jillibus

Funny -- so often the Rriday grid is so small that everyone finishes without the icon clues which are such fun.
11:03 pm
Dindrane

Makes me want to get back into making stained glass, so I can make something like it.
11:03 pm
Minveryork

On that positive note,I am REALLY of to bed now.Bye
11:03 pm
jillibus

Night, Min!
11:03 pm
Nef

right now I'm at the point of not being able to load my pictures from my camera onto my computer for some reason. I have never learned how to switch icons anywhere; I imported this one from another site I was on (or maybe my son did it for me; I can't remember)
11:05 pm
jillibus

Nef, if you have images in your My Pictures (or the Mac equivalent) the instructions in your My Account, left side, are quite clear. That's how I learned.
11:06 pm
jillibus

Anyway, time now for me to see what the next theme is and act accordingly ;)
11:06 pm
Nef

AND I'm off to bed too now. Jilli, don't be out of so**s about this grid and the icons etc. I'm kind of slow sometimes and I really need to take some computer classes to learn how to do things
11:07 pm
Nef

Good Night (for real this time! <POOF!~!!>
11:08 pm
jillibus

The coming themes are listed in my profile and the next one is Tea Cosies (I prefer the Brit spelling -- they are a Brit thing, after all) -- see you later...
