yes you are right. I definitely don't want to make others ill. But darn, 50 comes only on4! Ah well, enough about it, can't change reality. Just have to adapt.

Having one now! Woke up late, so I had to rush to get the boys on the bus...so now I am trying to clear the fuzz from my head!
7:07 am

How are you this morning?
7:07 am
car.eeyore

I guess we should chog quietly so we don't wake the other babblers, eh?
7:07 am
zoozzoom

not too bad here thanks :-)
7:07 am

Yes it has been rather eerie today.
7:09 am

Getting more coffee...can I get you something?
7:09 am

Hi everyone. I just got here actually, it is my first day off after 6 days of ER hell....so I am still in recovery mode, about to start packing for the weekend.
7:09 am

I have just had lunch & got tea..but thank you.
7:10 am

Hello, Red, hope the weekend is going to be a great one for you :-)
7:10 am

I hope so, I am running my first Marathon
7:11 am
Scrabbler

Hello Babble buddies. Wow, Red! That's 26.2 miles!
7:11 am
zoozzoom

Oh wow..i think you will do good..you have trained for a while now..so GO..Red..GOOO
7:11 am
redturtlehead

yes, Scrabbler, it is. the 0.2 at the end will undubitibaly be the worst.
7:11 am
zoozzoom

Hello, Scrabs :-)
7:11 am
redturtlehead

Hi Scrabbs!
7:11 am
Scrabbler

Well, what is the time limit for finishing?
7:12 am
redturtlehead

6 hrs, but...of course, 6 hrs for a Marathon is a dismal time. it is also very likely going to be my time, as I am not as well trained as I would have liked because of last years injury.
7:13 am
redturtlehead

But, Lots of friends and good times, so I just have to get over the time concern.
7:13 am
Scrabbler

It would take me about 6 hrs to walk it. I am NOT a runner. Riding my mountain bike would be fun.
7:13 am
ChampFit

Hey Red! Morning all!
7:13 am
zoozzoom

Nah..i think you will do well, Red.
7:13 am
zoozzoom

Hello, Champ :-)
7:14 am
Scrabbler

And you gain experience, Red. Hi Champ.
7:14 am
redturtlehead

Hi All. zooz, It will probably take me 6 hours to run it, I am just not entirely prepared for the distance!
7:14 am
redturtlehead

Hi Champ!!!
7:14 am
redturtlehead

we are of course talking some running.
7:14 am
ChampFit

Sitting here watching news coverage of the icy conditions here in Houston...the city has come to a standstill. Goofballs!
7:14 am

Amazing weather in Texas!
7:14 am

Red, best of luck this weekend. Your Babble Family will all be cheering for you.
7:15 am

Goodness! I should step away more often! Look at the crowd!
7:15 am
ChampFit

So silly...the schools are closed, and my kids will be crawling up the wall any minute.
7:15 am
redturtlehead

Thanks Molly. I just want to do it and be done with it...it may turn out to be sort of fun for the first half!
7:15 am
car.eeyore

Go, Red, Go!!!
7:15 am
zoozzoom

Stop doubting yourself , Red, Take it easy at first and you will flow nicley :-)
7:15 am
Scrabbler

Hi Molly
7:16 am
redturtlehead

No doubt zooz, but I know my speed and what I am capable of, in the end it is not a big deal. I dont get a raise or a promotion...I get a silly piece of metal...but I do get to spend time with my friends!
7:16 am
ChampFit

Red, it's always fun the first half. The second half you just go with it and finish.
7:16 am
zoozzoom

OK i predict..erm..3 hours 10 mins.
7:17 am
ChampFit

Oooooh...then she'd be a Boston qualifier...wooHOO! ;)
7:17 am
redturtlehead

thanks Champ. I will nto be qualifying for Boston, any time ever.
7:17 am
car.eeyore

If anyone is doing the Boston Marathon this year, please let Trif and I know! We will come and cheer you on!
7:17 am
ChampFit

Me either. Have you considered going with a pace group? Talk to the at the Expo. It can help, if they've got the same race plan you do.
7:18 am
redturtlehead

I'm running htis one because of all the friends coming (I am an awesome recruiter!) but my main goal is another one iN Npvember. No pace groups at Melbourne...
7:18 am
redturtlehead

A pace group would help a lot.
7:18 am
redturtlehead

I do have someone who will run with me, but I wish he wouldnt since he is pretty fast, and I can be turtle like.
7:19 am
ChampFit

Oh...darn! One of my friend's PR this past weekend by using a pacer through mile 23 or so who was a little slower, then she took off when she felt better. Worked like a charm.
7:19 am
ChampFit

Make a pact that he'll leave you when you tell him to!
7:19 am
zoozzoom

Good idea, Champ.
7:19 am
car.eeyore

What a great idea!
7:19 am
redturtlehead

I think I am going to have him run the first half with our friend who is doing the half, and by then I will be so far behind he will nto find me...
7:20 am
redturtlehead

I just dont quite have the marathon base, but in November 2011, I shall, and it will be great! Do you want to run in Arkansas Champ?
7:20 am
ChampFit

Smart! Because at the beginning he'll be pushing you too fast, even without trying.
7:20 am
MollyL

Just for the record, I will not be running in the Boston Marathon this year. However, should I ever be in the area, I will meet Car and Trif at Cheers. : P
7:20 am
car.eeyore

Sounds good to me Molly!
7:20 am

I am a great runner in my dreams.

Hi Lynxxx!
7:21 am
MollyL

I am not even a runner in my dreams. Even my "dream knees" know that they are walking joints, not running joints.
7:22 am
car.eeyore

Running makes my boobs hurt...there, now you know.
7:22 am
MollyL

Car, didn't you know you have to duct tape them to your chest before you run? : P
7:22 am
zoozzoom

lol
7:23 am
ChampFit

Wear 2 sports bras...it works. Not that I have that problem...believe me!
7:23 am
redturtlehead

its also really nice to have cheerers.
7:23 am
Scrabbler

Running causes me facial trauma because of my bouncing girls.
7:23 am
redturtlehead

I wear either the Enell bra that Oprah wore when she ran, or the maia brad from Moving comfort the 2 bra thing gets heavy..
7:23 am
zoozzoom

I`m afraid i will have to cheer you from here, Red..but cheer i will.
7:24 am
Scrabbler

Duct tape--great idea.
7:24 am
car.eeyore

I will put my 4 years of cheerleading to good use here in Babble Land for you Red!!!
7:24 am
car.eeyore

Although I will NOT be doing any splits at this age!
7:24 am

ou4.7 when you take it off though
7:24 am
redturtlehead

I appreciate all the good wishes. I am mostly looking forward to seeing my friends and meeting Frank Shorter and having a weekend at the beach.
7:24 am
redturtlehead

No Splits, Car, I am sooo disapointed!
7:25 am
ChampFit

Red, I have a friend who swears by Title 9 sports bras...
7:25 am
Scrabbler

Hi Lynxxx--true!
7:25 am
car.eeyore

You at least have to buy me a drink afterwards....
7:25 am
MollyL

Oh poor Scrabs. Injured by her own bouncing mammaries. : P
7:25 am
car.eeyore

...and promise to call the next day!
7:25 am
redturtlehead

I tested a buch of bras for fleet feet about 3 years ago...I have all the bras they sold at the time...but I dont know that i tried title nine.
7:26 am
redturtlehead

LOL Car!
7:26 am
car.eeyore

^5 Scrabs!
7:26 am
ChampFit

I think you can find them online only. Google 'em.
7:26 am
redturtlehead

I might have to try em..
7:26 am
car.eeyore

Shouldn't that be tiTTle 9?
7:27 am
ChampFit

good one car!

OMG!

Abraham Verghese
7:32 am

this is a hilarious chog! I never had those problems when I was a runner so it's funny to read about.
7:32 am
Anniebrook

scrabbs, did you read it
7:32 am
Christine

Lovely, huh? Just finished American Rose, by Karen Abbott, about Gypsy Rose Lee
7:33 am
rubyfoo

I'm just back from the hospital where I brought husband food, specially prepared by the local Italian restaurant, fruit, expresso, newspaper, etc. and he was in a really foul mood, was feeling exhausted
7:33 am
Christine

Anniebrook, I have a list of good books, keep meaning to email it to you.
7:33 am
ChampFit

ruby, bet that perked him up though!
7:33 am
mom2han8

Just finished "At Home" by Bill Bryson. It was good, but he is usually funnier. Now I am in search of something funny.
7:34 am
car.eeyore

Ruby...why is he in the hospital?
7:34 am
Anniebrook

christine, when you get a ch6, I would look forward to it
7:34 am
Scrabbler

No, but it's on my list, and I have read some essays by Dr Verghese, regarding the practice of medicine and teaching medical students and residents.
7:34 am
rubyfoo

he still has a fever and they won't let him go until they can clear that up. I was in tears talking to his doctor, but she said she didn't think he was dying.....
7:34 am
Scrabbler

Hi mom2--I love Bill Bryson.
7:34 am
rubyfoo

car: he has pneumonia
7:34 am

ruby, that's more than they tell you a lot of the time, so let's go with it!
7:34 am

Hi Scrabbs... how are you... I have not been on in ages and ages.
7:35 am

I will stop monopolizing the chog now, instead will start writing down all these book names
7:35 am
mom2han8

I usually laugh out loud when I read Bill Bryson. While this one was amusing it was no "Walk in the Woods" or "In a Sunburned Country"... my two favorites!
7:36 am
ChampFit

you aren't monopolizing...we want to know
7:36 am
rubyfoo

I bought a Bill Bryson book for my husband last year and he wouldn't read it but I found it charming
7:36 am

Ruby....if we can talk about our boobs, you certainly can talk about your husband!!!!1
7:36 am

If I had done graduate work I would have needed the french... I would have had to translate Montesquieu, Rousseau, etc.
7:50 am

Though now with all of the translation programs available I do not know if that is still a requirement; the translating from the primary source material.

Haz1558

Talking of sun screen, they're saying over here that children are developing rickets because of lack of Vitamin D. Overly diligent mothers are overdoing things. Of course it might just be a scary headline, British papers have been known to exaggerate ever so slightly.

Yeah, I heard that, too, Haz. Not just children are supposedly deficient. But I'm really not that worried. We get plenty of vitamin D milk, plus plenty of outdoor time even with sunscreen.

you only eed about 10 miutes just o your lower arms to do it.... sunscreen is not the problem
9:31 am
Haz1558

Was it Cameron Diaz or someone who discovered that her Vit D levels were horribly low plus her bones were rubbish?
9:32 am
Vicuna

I suspect that the bones of all those models and actresses on perpetual diets are bound to be rubbish. You can't spend your entire adult life under healthy weight and hope to have fabulous bones!
9:32 am

well, let's face it... they aren't gettig paid for their boes

1) you do ot absorb vit D through the skin

3) you only need 10 minutes daily on your lower arms to convert enough D - most people get that when doig errands, etc ot even thinkig about sun

Diane, the sc that goes on a bagel is (I believe) a New York Deli terminology. It's an sc of what you normally top a bagel with.
11:22 am

Diane, it's a Jewish/Yiddish term for a thick spread of cream cheese atop a bagel. Does that help a bit?

hurshy

when you fix up a building, it's rehab, so i think when you demolish it, you should call it dehab
2:37 pm
MollyL

That word actually makes a lot more sense than the "deperm" of yesterday.
2:37 pm
hurshy

i always strive to make more sense than enable. it's a humble goal, but a worthy one.
2:38 pm
Soodlebum

Thats a noble goal, Hurshy!
2:39 pm
mixi6

fireworks. monkees found last word.
2:39 pm

When a building is torn down it is raised. That always seems backwards to me hurshy.
2:39 pm
Soodlebum

I think its widely acknowledged that Brigid was a pagan, Moll. Somewhere along the way, the church kidnapped her as one of theirs!!
2:39 pm
hurshy

random word association question: when i say "economist", what comes to your mind?
2:39 pm
hurshy

it isn't raised, it's razed. big difference.
2:40 pm

magazine hurshy
2:40 pm
stidgmere

Ah yes, hurshy, I was being a phonetic speller and missed badly.
2:40 pm

forgot about the magazine!
2:40 pm
stidgmere

Economist, one who studies economy.
2:40 pm
Soodlebum

Hurshy, when I hear that word, I get the shakes!
2:40 pm
hurshy

what i really want to know is what traits you associate with economists.
2:41 pm

Ivory tower, not in the market but in some university.
2:41 pm

money
2:42 pm
stidgmere

They are like weather men. Sometimes they get it right but usually they are way off--too early, too late, too little, too much.
2:42 pm
Soodlebum

Well said, Stid. I totally agree.
2:43 pm
MollyL

An economist is probably fairly rational.
2:43 pm
hurshy

so am i alone in finding it sort of sweet how naive they can be about how people will actually act?
2:43 pm
MollyL

And intellectual.
2:43 pm
stidgmere

Not sweet when budgets are built depending on their errors, hurshy.
2:44 pm
MollyL

Economists miss one very important thing. The human element. Statistics are cold and impersonal.
2:44 pm
hurshy

ah, well, that's a fair point
2:44 pm
Soodlebum

Erm... If economists were all that, why is most of the planet in recession?
2:44 pm
hurshy

well partly because economists are often right about things and politicians ignore them, soodle.
2:45 pm
Soodlebum

I think the old adage 'Doctors differ and patients die' could also be applied to economists.
2:45 pm
frogface

well gooooooood evening fellow babblers xxx
2:45 pm
hurshy

well, nobody's perfect.
2:46 pm
hurshy

but economists are at least mostly well-intentioned, as are doctors. wall street bankers, on the other hand... i think the seventh circle of hell is reserved for them.
2:47 pm
Soodlebum

Hey Frog. England is doing well against Wales in the Rugby....
2:47 pm
hurshy

wait, how many circles of hell did dante write about? i meant the last one, whichever number that is.
2:48 pm

mind you soodle i'd pick rugby over politics anyday
2:50 pm

this puzzle was so nice in the top row, and not bad in the second row. it lulled me into a false sense of security and now it is being mean and cruel.

3:02 pm
hurshy

i don't really understand why you would tell them "everything in moderation" and then proceed to do the exact opposite, though. i'd wait until the week after and say, you know when we did everything chocolate? that was not the best idea.

You are right, Stid. I actually didn't realise how worried I was about my Mom, till she got the all clear. Thank goodness!
3:46 pm

I didn't realize how often I thought about my mother until after she died. Several times a day i would think, "That's something mother would enjoy hearing about." And then remembering she has a more direct line to my thoughts now.

In mink.
4:44 pm

Now see? The real Max would have added the mink part, and probably thrown in pearls too.
4:44 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Pearls were next, actually.
4:45 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Max Kaplan? Are you there?
4:45 pm
ch1212

Okay, now seriously, Max, if that is you, then please email if you've got internet where you're living now.
4:46 pm
MollyL

If there are pearls, there must be a feather boa as well.
4:46 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Where am I living
4:46 pm

I was cranky coming on here tonight. I am off to bed now, with a smile on my face. Thank you all for the giggles. Good night all.

Good night sood.

Good Enough

Happy Friday! you ladies are being silly...

This paper I was supposed to have finished last week for a newsletter- it keeps morphing everytime I work on it
4:49 pm
MollyL

Sing along with me...You should always look at the bright side of your life!

Kaplan the Magne

If I were Max, I would e-mail. In fact, tell Max to e-mail me!

I am too tangential

Imagine that.

What's the sense of changing horses midstream?

Kaplan the Magne

I love metaphor.
4:51 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I'l going out of my mind with a pain that stops and starts
4:53 pm
Kaplan the Magne

The problem with this paper is that I have a real social-psych stance and the newsletter is psychoanalytic. I didn't saay I wanted to write for that newsletter, but I got co-opted

Same letter combo as what?
5:11 pm

She dropped a coin into the cup of the blind man at the gate.

I'd better start focusing on the grid.
5:11 pm

5:12 pm
jillibus

my son sings Dylan better than Dylan does, but that's not saying much
5:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Dylan is Dylan. I've always thought of his voice as an instrument, though the last few years have been painful even for me
5:14 pm
jillibus

If Dylan's voice is an instrumant, he doesn't play it very well
5:14 pm
jillibus

*instrument

5:17 pm

I'm not seeing them
5:17 pm
MollyL

No Kap, he couldn't juggle. TNana...br9...the singer br8 out into guitar playing.
5:17 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Yeah, really. I am not getting them. The br8 is dendrite like, treelike
5:17 pm

ra8 is the guys on the ra5

not supposed to give clues like that, molly ;-)
5:20 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Why not?
5:21 pm
MollyL

Since when? People clue like that all the time.
5:21 pm
trentsnana

I agree with Molly - I've seen it a lot.
5:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Explain yourself!
5:22 pm
dianedecoder

some spell it out even more precisely...I'm still trying to get the guidelines for cluing
5:22 pm
jessmom

It gives almost the whole word away
5:23 pm
MollyL

Can someone please direct me to The Rules Of Babble?
5:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I thought it was a standard way of cluing. Maybe since the revolution things are different?
5:23 pm
Uneaixoise

kaplan LOL!!!
5:24 pm
dianedecoder

as you notice... I don't clue a whole lot but when I do, it's usually just a "brain jogger"
5:24 pm
jillibus

Here's another one: http://www.dogwork.com/ddsff4/
5:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Only gives it away if you have the other word- if not it's a clue with a clue
5:24 pm
ChrissieDee

it's not really a clue if it spells out most of the word
5:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Two schools of thought here.
5:24 pm
ChrissieDee

everyone likes different types of clues - I enjoy the cryptic ones
5:25 pm
Dorens

acatually it gave four letters outright... that's why it isn't kosher... we try to only give two letters and make folks guess the rest
5:25 pm
MollyL

Again, where are the rules?
5:25 pm
jessmom

I try to clue the meaning, or a rhyming word, or just make up a silly clue
5:25 pm
Kaplan the Magne

"There are no truths outside the Gates of Eden."
5:25 pm
Dorens

no rules per se.... just try to only give two letters. You won't hang for the transgression :)
5:27 pm
Kaplan the Magne

someone once clued a 10 bu giving the 8 that it came from- that was a CLEAR transgression
5:27 pm
jillibus

sorry about that -- there really aren't any "rules" and I know lots of people clue that way but others have expressed the wish that more imaginative clues are more fun.
5:28 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Sometimes the clues where people say "Twisty letter, sometimes vowel, and second vowel" are a little too obvious- why not just say s y and e?
5:28 pm
MollyL

Sorry I wasn't more imaginative. Have a good night you all.
5:28 pm
Dorens

i myself am not a big fan of second vowel, etc. Molly please take no offense!
5:28 pm
Kaplan the Magne

That was a hard word and I wouldn't have known how to clue it except "Sounds like what waas dropped on Hiroshima"
5:29 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I have a feeling Molly is handling this OK
5:29 pm
jillibus

(badly put -- should have said they wish people would use more imaginative clues which are more fun.)
5:29 pm

5:36 pm

sorry jilli don't have it yet
5:36 pm
Mark Jones

What is a peeparama contest????????????
5:36 pm
jillibus

:-(
5:37 pm
jmcnrick

that is because some people like clues that are meanings; others like stats; and others want them spoon fed and a few like funny ones

5:42 pm
Trifioso

oh, jmc! are we sad, or not sad?
5:42 pm
jmcnrick

for every door that is closed a worse one is closed!
5:42 pm
dianedecoder

age, education, local idioms, locations, etc. ... all factor into cluing and how they are understood
5:42 pm
joey

jmn, sorry you didn't get the job, but what do you have against the Phillies?
5:43 pm
Mark Jones

You can watch the Nationals fail!

5:48 pm
Dorens

late teens... driving?
5:49 pm
jmcnrick

so mark should probably not be telling us this stuff
5:49 pm
Mark Jones

Of course. jmc, do you mean Jameson Taillon?
5:50 pm
jmcnrick

I was thinking of Bryce Harper
5:50 pm
Mark Jones

He is a catcher!
5:51 pm
jmcnrick

and I he5/14 that strasburg is okay and will be pitching again (AMAZING to watch)
5:51 pm
Mark Jones

Anyway, it is dinnertime. I have Hebrew to practice, and pizza to eat. Adios, amigos!
5:51 pm
jmcnrick

we don't need no sticking catcher --- they are putting him in the field
5:51 pm
jmcnrick

bye mark
5:51 pm
joey

jmc, i thought that strasburg was going to be out for the entire 2011 season?
5:52 pm
jmcnrick

sorry that should have been stinking catcher -- kinda losses the feel with the wrong word
5:52 pm
jmcnrick

that is not what I saw a few weeks ago but to be fair I haven't look lately
5:53 pm
joey

wow - it would be a remarkable recovery if he came back during 2011
5:53 pm
jmcnrick

no you are right it was a false rumor :-(
5:53 pm
jmcnrick

i just read the webpage
5:53 pm
jmcnrick

I thought I read he would be back near the end of the season
5:54 pm
joey

his first couple of starts were amazing.
5:55 pm
jmcnrick

they had to keep reminding him to slow down between pitches for the commentators to comment
5:55 pm
jmcnrick

it was beautiful to watch and the stands were always full when he started
5:56 pm
jillibus

what's the name of the new huge young Canadian pitcher?
5:57 pm
jmcnrick

5:58 pm

I'll see if Google knows
5:58 pm
jmcnrick

i couldn't find it on the wiki page
6:03 pm

I couldn't find it either. He was quite a sensation at the end of the season last year -- threw a blazing fastball
6:03 pm
jmcnrick

do you konw for whom he played?
6:04 pm
jmcnrick

John Axford maybe?
6:05 pm
jillibus

Can't remember. Don't think it was John Axford -- the name was fairly long, like Henderson or something.

Hello TO. How are you?
9:26 pm
72 Temple Owl

hey jacs! well - we are awaitng a wintry mic to screw up the weekend!
9:26 pm
72 Temple Owl

mix
9:27 pm
Brookie

Hi everyone
9:27 pm
Jacula

We've had very strong winds here in UK, TO. Actually seems to have calmed down for the moment, though.
9:27 pm
Jacula

Hi Brookie.
9:27 pm
72 Temple Owl

good
9:28 pm
bleugirl2

SC 7/40
9:28 pm
Brookie

Hi Jac!
9:28 pm
Brookie

like sm5,12 but with a bit of a cute pronunciation in the beginning.
9:29 pm
Jacula

bleugirl - sc7/40 is a slang word. Think of slapping spread on something.
9:29 pm
Brookie

It's like how I like to apply cream cheese on my bagel.
9:29 pm
bleugirl2

yeah i couldn't remember how to spell it
9:29 pm
Jacula

Oh, I spoke too soon about the winds calming. (Those are weather winds, not internal winds btw!)
9:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

i think i will just turn in soon. these storms have taken a toll on my energy.
9:31 pm
Jacula

Incidentally, did any of you who are friends with me on Facebook see the BBC News link I put up earlier via my daughter linking it? Apparently, legal bods in Malawi are seriously discussing if farting in public is to become illegal.
9:32 pm
Jacula

It all seems to have come from some misunderstanding of what exactly constitutes 'air pollution'.
9:33 pm
Jacula

TO - we're better off than the folks in Queensland, Aus.
9:34 pm
72 Temple Owl

seems so.
9:34 pm
Jacula

TO - we are, so far, anyway. Always look on the bright side! (Even when it's hard to see.)
9:36 pm
dan2bit

The winds of change are blowing in Africa, Jac
9:37 pm
Jacula

dan - LOL, really snorts with laughter.
9:38 pm
Jacula

How's Button, Dan? She must be getting quite a big girl now. Walking or pulling herself up on things yet?
9:39 pm
bleugirl2

fireworxxx
9:39 pm
Jacula

I loved watching the pulling themselves upright on things and then the quick, wobbly,, but determined dash to their destination. A bit like a drunk on a mission.LOL
9:39 pm
Jacula

Well done, bleugirl!
9:39 pm
Brookie

Yay bleugirl!
9:39 pm
dan2bit

commando crawling, rolling over, sitting up and nonsense talking
9:40 pm
dan2bit

probably a few weeks from real crawling and pullups
9:40 pm
Jacula

*by 'them', I meant my kids.
9:40 pm
dan2bit

she says mama, dada, and tries her hardest to mimic sounds
9:41 pm
Brookie

That's so cute, dan!
9:41 pm
dan2bit

yeah she's at a really fun age
9:41 pm
dan2bit

no teeth yet
9:41 pm
Jacula

dan - has she gone through the 'trying out her voice' aka make annoyingly high-pitched screaming sounds yet? I find most babies tend to do that in the supermarket where I am. It's only 'cute' when your own baby is doing it. :-(
9:42 pm
Jacula

Or maybe your own grandchild.
9:42 pm
dan2bit

yes she tests the volume knob from time to time
9:42 pm
Brookie

Screaming is never cute, no matter how lovable the child.
9:42 pm
dan2bit

also the "motorboat" spit bubbles are fun for her
9:43 pm
dan2bit

that's a recent trick
9:43 pm
Brookie

I'm still learning how to do that trick myself.
9:43 pm
Jacula

dan - I remember those bubbles! Have you had the 'put 4 spoonfuls of baby mush into the mouth, get all 4 plus spit and bubbles, with a big smile, back' thing yet?
9:44 pm
Jacula

Brookie - it's not exactly screaming, more high-pitched annoying noise.
9:44 pm
dan2bit

she's actually really good with the spoon feeding. She hasn't rejected much, at least not yet. haha Brookie
9:45 pm
Jacula

A high-pitched annoying noise that goes through the scales for high-pitched annoying noises. Babies are nothing if not efficient.:-)
9:45 pm
dan2bit

her sly trick is to undo her diaper on one side (always the left), and check to see if she got "caught"
9:45 pm
72 Temple Owl

a pitch that could shatter glass. oscar in the tin drum.
9:46 pm
Jacula

Hi again, TO. Yes, that's about right.
9:47 pm
Jacula

dan - I assume that's a disposable nappy/diaper and that she hasn't yet got the knack of opening baby safety pins.
9:48 pm
dan2bit

correct, velcro-ish
9:48 pm
dan2bit

though she does do a soundless snapping with her fingers on either hand - very cute and dextrous
9:48 pm
72 Temple Owl

sc7/44clue pls?
9:49 pm
dan2bit

sc7 - pt "plotted"
9:49 pm
72 Temple Owl

ty
9:50 pm
dan2bit

ra6?
9:51 pm
Jacula

Here's a typical baby's timetable - sleep, wake, wee, poo, gurgle, look cute, scream if no one notices all that nice warm pee and poo are all nasty and cold in your nappy now, AND that you are HUNGRY and that YOU WANT ATTENTION. Once satisfied, go back to sleep stage again.
9:51 pm
dan2bit

the puppies from our closet just had their second birthday
9:52 pm
Jacula

ra6 - the Spanish version of the US cattle farm.
9:52 pm
Jacula

dan - you surely didn't keep all of those puppies? Is it really 2 years? Heck! Time goes fast.
9:52 pm
dan2bit

oh duh, I forgot this was enable not english :-) that's firewords, tx Jac and all cluers
9:52 pm
Brookie

Thanks for the ra6! May I have another clue for the sc7, still not getting it.
9:53 pm
Brookie

Yay dan!
9:53 pm
Jacula

Well done, Dan.
9:53 pm
72 Temple Owl

wtg.dan!
9:53 pm
dan2bit

sc6 is a plot or con game, sc7 is the past tense
9:54 pm
Jacula

Brookie - sm5/12 with the end of a Scottish lake after the first letter.
9:54 pm
Brookie

Thanks, got it now!
9:54 pm
Jacula

y/w
9:54 pm
dan2bit

and the other sc7 is the bagel topping
9:55 pm
Brookie

Got that one 'cause I was raised on a bit of Yiddish (family Jewish).
9:55 pm
72 Temple Owl

i am missing the easiest words and tons of plurals!
9:56 pm
Jacula

TO - that's par for the course for most seasoned Babblers. We tend to look for the weird words first.
9:56 pm
dan2bit

good night all!
9:56 pm
Jacula

'Night Dan.
9:56 pm
Brookie

See ya, dan!
9:56 pm

9:58 pm
Jacula

y/w TO.
9:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

nu 6 pls?
9:59 pm
Brookie

Thanks, Jac. It's now time for the "serious speech" contest. I'm actually going to start writing it this weekend - won't be presented till late March.
9:59 pm
crosshair

crossy wants to hear new brookie speech!
10:00 pm
Brookie

Thanks crossy!
10:00 pm
Jacula

Latin plural of the nu5/16 before it, TO.
10:01 pm
Brookie

The speech I'm writing about is about a really tough time I went through and the lessons learned... it was around the time I joined Babble, which was a pleasant distraction amidst the sadness around me.
10:01 pm
Jacula

Brookie - be sure to give us the link for it when its done. Is the subject of the serious speech a secret?
10:01 pm
Brookie

So there won't be any funny moments with the next speech, sorry!
10:01 pm
Jacula

Oh, I see it isn't.
10:02 pm
Jacula

It will still be interesting to hear though, I'm sure, Brookie. You present yourself so well.
10:02 pm
Brookie

I can tell you now. Around the time I joined, I lost my older son for about a year due to custody issues. It made me question our legal system and my sense of good vs. bad.
10:02 pm
Jacula

PB for me for saying a grid word!
10:02 pm
Brookie

You might not believe this, but I was charged with 5 felonies.
10:03 pm
Brookie

Obviously, I wasn't convicted, but the D.A. waited till the day of the trial to drop the charges, just to make a point.
10:03 pm
crosshair

!
10:03 pm
Jacula

Brookie - I might, if your ex had lied and you wanted your child.
10:03 pm
Brookie

I'm trying to write this speech so it's not a pity party, but a lessons-learned type of thing. I was also in prison for a day.
10:04 pm
Jacula

So, was kind of evil District Attorney was that? A man?
10:04 pm
Brookie

Ex had lied, and his attorney happened to work in the state attorney's office.
10:04 pm
crosshair

it is terrible when one parent uses the children as chess pieces to manipulate the system;(
10:04 pm
Jacula

Ah!
10:04 pm
Brookie

Yes, a man. In a very small town that I was not from.
10:04 pm
Jacula

Ah, again.
10:05 pm
Brookie

I was going through all this when I first joined Babble, and the Babble community was just a wonderful respite... provided some sanity for me.
10:05 pm
Jacula

Crossy - yes, it is.
10:05 pm
crosshair

not just because he was a man jacula..there are honest child custody male lawyers...but there are many dishonest ones..including women
10:05 pm
Brookie

I felt awful for my son, who missed me so much the few times I saw him.
10:05 pm
Jacula

Brookie - I'm so glad we helped you.
10:06 pm
Brookie

You did!
10:06 pm
72 Temple Owl

so6/24pls?
10:06 pm
crosshair

i am glad we eased your mind during that time brooke;)
10:06 pm
Brookie

Basically the lesson learned is that I no longer judge people by their status or position in life, whether good or bad.
10:07 pm
Brookie

I was literally chained and shackled as I walked through the courthouse, and the onlookers immediately judged me. It was so hurtful.
10:07 pm
Jacula

Crossy - I think it's a boy's club in a small town thing, from what Brookie has said. I think US small towns are as bad as UK small villages for not accepting someone as a 'local' until they've buried at least 3-4 generations of relatives there. The count is even higher for some UK villages 'up North'.
10:08 pm
Brookie

Didn't know that, Jacula. Sounds like a universal trend.
10:08 pm
Jacula

TO - so6/24 sounds like the males who love socks.
10:09 pm
Jacula

Brookie - yes, I think it is.
10:09 pm

not here it is not,i know that the womens club try to drain as much from the guy as they can because that way they can make thewomans govt cheeques as small as possible,and they have books out on how to do this
10:09 pm
Jacula

Brookie - GOOD!
10:09 pm
Brookie

Go, TO, go!
10:10 pm
Brookie

Can you explain, crossy? Example?
10:11 pm
crosshair

but i digress,i will not hash out the lopsided justice system and am glad you have made out ok brookie

The property is cut in two. It depends on the fence lines. I think they would have gone to high ground.
