I lost it while husband was in hospital, searched every place as it was lost in the house, but it must have gotten thrown out in the trash

2:35 am

jillibus

My wedding ring is very plain. I had to have it enlarged at one point, and now it's too lose so I wear it on ly middle finger.

2:35 am

jillibus

Good luck with that, ruby!

2:35 am

sprite

there we go, fireflies. Not sure why, but it wasn't a smooth grid at all. Second half was slow.

2:35 am

jillibus

too loose, I mean

2:35 am

rubyfoo

it was little diamonds all around but I always took it off in the kitchen... big mistake

2:36 am

jillibus

What hap[pened to it, ruby?

2:36 am

jillibus

down the drain?

2:37 am

rubyfoo

disappeared but now that I've told him, I feel better. I was really upset and was afraid to tell him

2:37 am

rubyfoo

no, I checked drains, vacuum cleaner, every possible drawer and nook and cranny but it somehow must have gone out with the trash - in January!

2:38 am

jillibus

that's a sad loss, ruby -- must have been beautiful.

2:38 am

sprite

ok, be sure to search for Danbo on google images, and wtg sprite for fireflies!
Must love and leave you, have a nice day/good night.

2:38 am

rubyfoo

2:38 am

jillibus

wow, sprite! I don't know how you do it!

2:39 am

jillibus

And yes, will look up danbo...

2:39 am

rubyfoo

and I have no photo for the insurance company and no idea if they have a category "mysterious disappearance" like in the US!

2:42 am

jillibus

I had a sapphire and diamond ring (like a small version for Princess Di's, now Kate's) -- it "mysteriously disappeared" after a workman changed some storm windows -- I had left it on a dresser the night before.

2:42 am

jillibus

*of Princess Di's

2:42 am

flosey

I had to have mine made smaller soon after the wedding, then a few years ago had to have it made larger (hadn't worn it for quite a while, hubby had given me a 25th anniversary ring sapphire and diamond)I much preferred the sapphires!

2:43 am

rubyfoo

that must have been beautiful, jilli! And, of course, you can't prove anything.....

2:43 am

jillibus

well, it was years ago, ruby. I think I'll get myself a cheap knock-off to go with the drop earrings I still have.

2:44 am

rubyfoo

he warned me so many times not to leave it next to the sink....but if "I told you so" was the worst of his reaction, I'm very lucky

2:46 am

rubyfoo

he's back

2:47 am

flosey

I'm off to bed again, hope this time sleep comes!

2:47 am

flosey

There's always a bit of a dilemma about giving clues. Some people want lots, others don't want to see them until they've got as many words as the possibly can by themselves. The compromise most people reach is to ask for clues for particular words and someone usually obliges.

8:46 am

Aloyisius

8:46 am

NonoNanette

8:46 am

Haz1558

And a hat! Big enough to be seen, not so big as to be mistaken for low-flying birds.

8:47 am

Aloyisius

LOL

8:47 am

NonoNanette

oh of couse you must wear a hat!

8:47 am

Haz1558

Probably earrings, I don't think a necklace is required and of course a watch so that I can keep an eye on time.

8:48 am

Haz1558

Lots of mother of the bride outfits were just too ornate for my taste and being small anyway, I thought to go for the less is more look.

8:49 am

Aloyisius

good choice

8:51 am

8:57 am

my wife also has a native name when she hits the stores i like to call her 'shops with a fist" in honour of dances with wolves

8:57 am

Haz1558

Husband used to despair of his mother who would buy an outfit and then continue to look and see what she might have had. I like blitz tactics for shopping.

8:58 am

Haz1558

The men will be in grey suits - no agonising for them!

8:58 am

NonoNanette

lol Crossy, sounds like she gets what she wants at all costs. anyone else better look out

yes

9:15 am

rururocks

where are the kids going on their honeymoon haz?

9:16 am

Haz1558

I don't know! It'll probably not be anywhere too far, neither of them likes the sun.

9:17 am

Haz1558

Have you found the Sicilian bad boys?

9:17 am

rururocks

yes..

9:17 am

rururocks

I am missing two mi's

9:17 am

uusue2

ooh, thx, haz, missed that one.

9:18 am

uusue2

how can they not like the sun??

9:19 am

Haz1558

They just don't... daughter is very fair-skinned and has a comfortable temperature range of about 2 degrees either way. When I say they don't like the sun - I'm talking intense heat.

9:20 am

uusue2

ah, ok, and I thought it might have something to do with fair skin. I've gotten pretty tough over the years but SO also has a rather narrow comfort range for temperature.

9:20 am

rururocks

I don't mind the heat myself.. can't take humidity however

9:20 am

crosshair

i am the same,i do not like roasting..i like it right around 20c(70f)

9:21 am

crosshair

cold i can handle,but once it is so hot you are neeked and one big heat rash,you are done:)

9:22 am

rururocks

I guess reposh would only work for Victoria

9:22 am

crosshair

plus i have had cancer enough times to respect the sun:)

9:23 am

uusue2

well, I don't like it too hot either but we get all the extremes here, so I just deal with it.

9:23 am

uusue2

nor do I go around sunning myself (never did, really) but I don't hide from it either (easy for me to say of course as I have never had skin cancer)

9:23 am

crosshair

cannot imagine going to some hot local and crisping on the beach

9:24 am

Haz1558

That's the thing - we don't get extremes of heat or cold here (okay these past two winters were the exception) so we're not best equipped to deal with it.

9:24 am

uusue2

we used to go to the beach all the time when I was a kid but I spent most of my time in the water.

9:24 am

rururocks

we get up to 110 here

9:25 am

uusue2

Yes, haz, SO moved here about 3 years ago from San Francisco which doesn't get much in the way of extremes either - the midwest was a bit of a shock to him!

9:25 am

crosshair

lol haz,we brough my poor old grammy over here in 1977...in july..we were not thinking.poor thing was a lobster

9:25 am

crosshair

was hottest july in 20 years

9:26 am

uusue2

we rarely get over 100 in the summer but it does happen, then well below zero in the winters (most winters, anyway, although those temps seem to be getting rarer)

9:26 am

rururocks

what does SO mean

9:26 am

uusue2

Significant Other (the guy I live with). Don't have a good title for him as we are not married.

9:26 am

kje

partner

9:26 am

rururocks

oh

9:27 am

uusue2

I use partner a lot too but SO is shorter to type :-)

9:27 am

we are usually above 100 in the summer - hate it

Take them one at a time. You've only just applied. You need to wait to see if you get an interview. Put your energy into preparing for it, then see what happens.

This business model sounds like my bamboo - everyone told us not to plant it because it would take over. But we live in the desert, so far not a problem lol. Then we heard "first year it sleeps, 2nd year it creeps, 3rd year it leaps

we have a neighbor with a lovely bamboo hedge (? fence? wall? ) that's creeping out into the street - no sidewalk there, so it's just grass - you have to be careful or you're stepping on stumps

bamboo flooring and other items are so popular now, you'd think you could sell what you cut down

i think it would be illegal to own koalas in DC

10:07 am

rastapopolous

Ursh - wouldn't have to be just copyright issues. Suppose the gov in power just didn't like what you were reading? You have to trust your gov. Something in short supply. The copyright thing is just something that's already happened.

10:08 am

jmcnrick

i tried to make bamboo shoots for my soup, but it was apparently not the right kind--too sharp

10:08 am

it is popular hurshy,if you cut it,bundle it,send it to be stripped and cleaned,cut into uniform length and delivered...then they will buy it lol

10:08 am

But we're in the desert - we figure it won't move far away from the drip line. The plan was privacy hedge and edible shoots

bouncing this thought off you all.i have 5 or 6 local artists who are ready to put their works un my shop on a consignment basis.most of it retails from 100 to 1000 dollar range.i am debating a 8% consignment fee..comments?

10:16 am

KenTropic

Is that in addition to a percentage of the sale cross?

10:16 am

crosshair

the odd work is in the 2000-3000 dollar range

10:16 am

Riverdance

I dont know anything the retail business so dont have an opinon on percent for consignment. You have nothing to lose by placing the items and variety is a great idea.

10:17 am

crosshair

8% of what they realize on the sale

10:17 am

KenTropic

That is really low.

10:17 am

KenTropic

Can I send some of my work to you??

10:17 am

Kaplan the Magne

I agree thais low.t

10:17 am

Kaplan the Magne

Same here. But I don't want to rip off crossy.

10:18 am

KenTropic

In most galleries they keep 40-45% of my sales.

10:19 am

ouch!

10:19 am

KenTropic

That's the norm.

10:19 am

crosshair

that much?!!

10:19 am

10:19 am

that's gouging. Prestige of the gallery is the issue.

10:19 am

ri 6 sounds like more of what a poem does

10:20 am

KenTropic

Some are 50-50 but I don't deal with those.

10:20 am

10:20 am

crosshair

small woodworks,some paintings,some lead/glass works

10:21 am

mklein

Sounds like percentages have gone up - I used to take consignments at 30%

10:21 am

KenTropic

Then you have to package (boxes, bags, tags, etc.), inventory, I'm sure you pay credit card charges.

10:21 am

crosshair

high turnover and it keeps the shop new and interesting

10:22 am

crosshair

sorry ken.local only lol

10:22 am

KenTropic

I was extremely happy when it was only 30%. That was a few years ago though.

10:22 am

crosshair

and it is consign at own risk(with paperwork)

10:22 am

KenTropic

I'm locally in the same continent.

10:22 am

crosshair

lol

10:23 am

KenTropic

so theft is the owner's responsibilty?

10:23 am

crosshair

ok,you drive them over when i open

10:23 am

mklein

You have to consider insurance too. Damages etc.

10:23 am

KenTropic

lol

10:24 am

crosshair

we are not responsible for any loss damage or theft,the artist agrees to not hold the store owner 9crossy) liable for anything ever!

10:25 am

KenTropic

That's great!

10:25 am

8:40 pm

jmcnrick

my mother died november 09

i remember, jmc . . .

8:42 pm

Uneaixoise

I've still got stuff to box up . . . at least I've been digging up tons of bulbs to share -- have some of her flowers in bloom chez moi right now . . .

8:42 pm

i should be better at remembering about other people--it is a failing of mi**

8:42 pm

jmcnrick

that is nice to be able to keep the plants

8:43 pm

Uneaixoise

no way to remember all the Babble stories . . . so many happy and sad ones

Uneaixoise

she was an avid gardner :-)

8:43 pm

jmcnrick

did you inherit her green thumb?

8:44 pm

Uneaixoise

that's wonderful, jmc -- I have some flowers from my grandmother's yard -- she passed 30 years ago and her magic lilies, irises, and snowy bells live on!

8:44 pm

rururocks

is avid gardener related to Eva Gardener?

8:45 pm

Uneaixoise

people think I do -- but all I do is stick stuff in the ground and it tends to come back every year :-)

8:45 pm

Uneaixoise

Ava?\

8:45 pm

jmcnrick

avid was the ugly youngest sister who never made a claim to fame

8:45 pm

9:03 pm

tomorrow I have an mri (trying to figure out source of headaches), then a movie about Mormons and homosexuality (it's LGBT awareness month).

9:04 pm

jmcnrick

anyone straight at that college?

9:04 pm

jesdraggon

mormons and homosexuality? doesn't sound like a very smooth combo

9:04 pm

crosshair

ever wonder why it is women that get 99% of the migraines?

9:05 pm

rururocks

mormons are homosexuals?

9:05 pm

uusue2

Thursday night is a couple of meetings about LGBT and religion, and Friday is the Day of Silence, followed by the Night of Noise.

9:05 pm

jesdraggon

because penises scare them away, crossy?

9:05 pm

9:05 pm

i get 3 regular headaches a year..it is so rare that when i do get one..i am startled at first

9:05 pm

jesdraggon

sorry for the double post

9:05 pm

uusue2

no, it isn't a smooth combo, I think that's the point of the movie although I'll be able to tell you more after I see it

9:06 pm

crosshair

np. just a penis thing i am assuming lol

9:06 pm

rururocks

you just wanted to write penises twice

9:06 pm

jesdraggon

ah

9:06 pm

uusue2

then Saturday is NIU Cares day, where the students fan out across town to do useful things; I said I'd help them get signed in, which means I have to be there at 6 am (!)

9:06 pm

uusue2

maybe this is why I'm getting headaches?

9:07 pm

MollyL

Good luck with the MRI tomorrow Sue. I hope it goes smoothly and provides you with some results. And just for the record, I have never wondered why women get most of the migraines. Wink, wink.

9:07 pm

jesdraggon

it's true, ruru. i wander around chanting it.

9:07 pm

jmcnrick

ack uu! no wonder you get headaches with those hours

9:07 pm

jesdraggon

heh. yeah, stress and lack of sleep could contribute, uusue!

9:07 pm

uusue2

thanks, molly, probably it is just stress. Maybe wandering around chanting "penis" would relieve some of it? (lol, jes!)

9:07 pm

jmcnrick

*hands jes finger cymbals for her chanting*

9:08 pm

jmcnrick

do you need finger cymbals too uu?

9:08 pm

jesdraggon

heheh. that would go over SOOO well at work!

9:08 pm

jmcnrick

hi molly

9:08 pm

MollyL

I'm having an hysterical image of the front page of the NIU newspaper tomorrow. It involves a faculty member, and reports of her strange, nocturnal chanting.

9:08 pm

rururocks

I could use some penis cymbals

9:09 pm

uusue2

I have some somewhere from when I took belly dancing lessons but that was about 40 years ago now, so I probably need a new set :-)

9:09 pm

MollyL

Hi JMC, are you home yet?

9:09 pm

uusue2

dear me, ruru! Talk about conjuring up images!

9:09 pm

jmcnrick

*looks in box for penis cymbals* nope only penis symbols

9:09 pm

jmcnrick

yes I got home Sunday night molly

9:10 pm

jmcnrick

*gives uu finger cymbals*

9:10 pm

jesdraggon

huh. do you have 2 penises to clash the cymbols, ru, or would this have to be a partner-play?

9:10 pm

jmcnrick

well my stupid lying ex-bil just called

9:11 pm

jesdraggon

yah? did you tell him you have no time for stupid lies and he should wise them up?

9:11 pm

MollyL

Oh, here we go. What did he say JMC?

9:11 pm

jmcnrick

he was suppose to come by at 8:30 tonight and just called to say he just got back in town from NYC and I guess assumed I couldn't hear the bar sounds in the background

9:12 pm

jesdraggon

hahahahaha

9:12 pm

jmcnrick

nice jazz music though

9:12 pm

MollyL

Isn't it amusing that people who think they are such good liars are usually so notoriously bad at it?

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

he just got a divorce from the woman who had an affair with him during his marriage with my sister

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

his new girl friend is unemployed and brought her brother along to free load (mutual friends have told me)

9:13 pm

rururocks

ugh.. hate those types

9:14 pm

MollyL

*Making popcorn, this is better than soap operas*

9:14 pm

jesdraggon

so why do you still need to have anything to do with him?

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

in so many ways I like him--but i am glad he is not my bil anymore

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

oh molly the best story is when I went to a party of lawyer friends. . . .

9:14 pm

jesdraggon

sounds like the kinda guy to kick out of your life

9:15 pm

jmcnrick

(did his tax returns -- his money is as good as anyones)

9:15 pm

jmcnrick

and one of my friends introduced me to this woman who he told me had dated my bil

9:15 pm

jmcnrick

she says: I dated him for a while but he broke up with me to go back to his wife

9:16 pm

jmcnrick

I said: he broke up with you to go back to his mistress

9:16 pm

jesdraggon

ah, makes sense.

9:16 pm

jesdraggon

perhaps he needs to accept polyamory?

9:17 pm

MollyL

Good Lord. This guy really is into high drama.

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

i understand a person who doesn't commit--I don't understand a person who doesn't live up at all to his commitment

9:18 pm

crosshair

lol,reading back,i guess thats one good thing about chemo,makes me less inclined to hump everything that bats an eye at me in a bar..

9:19 pm

MollyL

Makes you wonder why he attempted to be committed in the first place.

9:19 pm

jmcnrick

well the first time he was in HS and I think he had little choice

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

the second time my mother wouldn't let my 17 year old sister move to NYC with him unless they were married

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

the third time i think she wanted a green card

9:23 pm

jmcnrick

help with the ai7 please

9:23 pm

MollyL

Think TWA and United.

9:24 pm

jesdraggon

horizon or alaska

9:24 pm

jmcnrick

ah ty -- fish me

9:24 pm

MollyL

No fish, it's a twisty, nasty word in the grid.

9:38 pm

jmcnrick

9:43 pm

9:43 pm

jmcnrick

Book Doctor Gwen

evenin' y'alls

9:44 pm

jmcnrick

hi book

9:44 pm

jesdraggon

im after danger is to place obligations on

9:45 pm

jmcnrick

ty *looking*

9:45 pm

jesdraggon

danger--im7/36 is to place in danger, or "mortal *****"

9:46 pm

jesdraggon

if you have the im 7 immediately before it, just change the last letter.

9:47 pm

jmcnrick

im6/24?

9:47 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

mortal combat????

9:48 pm

uusue2

lol, gwen!

9:48 pm

jmcnrick

got it ty jes

9:48 pm

uusue2

and I am back, just did the kid's taxes. He gets $12 back from the feds and owes the state $27. Go figure.

9:48 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ah, the p****s of pauline . . .

9:48 pm

jmcnrick

wb uu

9:49 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

sounds like the gods of withholding are pretty close to the mark

9:49 pm

jmcnrick

sounds like a good deal to me--no one held his money interest free

9:50 pm

uusue2

actually he doesn't owe the feds anything at all, since he only earned about $3000 last year, but the state has no minimum and no exemptions (and he's a dependent on my return) so he owes them 3% of his income.

9:50 pm

uusue2

So he gets back everything they withheld for the feds but they didn't withhold enough for the state.

9:51 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i started my taxes today . . . well, i sort of stared them in march, but still got a ways to go

9:51 pm

uusue2

I did mine a while ago, the state and the feds both owed me a bunch of money

9:52 pm

jmcnrick

i was annoyed to find i got big refunds :-(

9:52 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i don't have any withholding (self emplyed) but i'm poor enough that i usually get refunds anyway

9:53 pm

uusue2

well, I do a lot of outside work that doesn't get anything withheld, so I have them withhold extra from work so it comes out about even (since I am always close to the edge and don't want to have to come up with a big chunk of $$)

9:53 pm

uusue2

but this year the outside work was thin so I got a bunch back

9:53 pm

jmcnrick

even when i worked for myself i set up a corporation that paid me

9:54 pm

jmcnrick

re7?

9:54 pm

uusue2

yeah, I'm not that clever :-)

9:55 pm

jmcnrick

:-)

9:55 pm

uusue2

re7 = to give shelter to again

9:55 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i fielded a call from a freind the other day who thought i could help them with depreciation questions. nope!

9:55 pm

jmcnrick

ty uu

9:55 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

friend (OY)

9:55 pm

jmcnrick

depreciation is complicated because they are always changing it

9:56 pm

uusue2

mi5/14?

9:56 pm

jmcnrick

add a letter to very small

9:56 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

mi5 = english word for a 16th note ( i think)

9:57 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i once amortized something, but i've never depreciated anything (so to speak)

9:57 pm

uusue2

ah, thx, gwen! Somehow I was finding all the letters to add, except that one.

9:58 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

(oh, the mi5 is a half note, not a 16th note, oops)

9:58 pm

uusue2

m's done.

9:58 pm

jmcnrick

go uu go!

9:58 pm

uusue2

that's ok, the musical reference was enough :-)

9:58 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

good! 8-D

9:58 pm

uusue2

when hemidemisemiquaver shows up in the grid I will be happy :-)

9:59 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yepper!

9:59 pm

jmcnrick

i think it is too long to fit

9:59 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

been a long time since i went to music school, and hey, we never had to learn those terms anyway

10:00 pm

uusue2

technically not, jmc, but it would have to be a very particular grid.

10:00 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

the stats box stops at 13, so i'll bet the dictionary inside the game does too

10:01 pm

uusue2

oh, interesting, I hadn't thought of that.

10:02 pm
