it is so cold in the bedroom, that I sleep under an old fur coat (as well as the various blankets)
3:41 am

I'm just hoping he might clear up the mess he left in the kitchen...

back again on my other computer - washing machine is being contrary and stopped mid wash = had to extract half the contents and flip the cut out swtich - keep forgetting its hates too heavy a load
4:25 am
Glantarell

Hi Kaz
4:25 am
Glantarell

Just put my washing on too - such a lovely day for drying
4:25 am
Kazzer99

hi glan - hows the house sale?
4:26 am
Glantarell

only the one viewing so far
4:26 am
Glantarell

probably have to reduce the price
4:26 am
Glantarell

must ask the agent if there is interest before i do that!
4:26 am
Kazzer99

whats the market like where you are?
4:27 am
Glantarell

it is weird - houses here usually sell very quickly or take forever - we are 20 miles form anywhere else
4:27 am
Glantarell

but there are a few sold signs at the moment so things must have started moving
4:28 am
Kazzer99

thats good and if the house is in quite good decorative order it shouldnt hang around too long
4:29 am
Glantarell

it is in good shape now - and hideous has almost finished the bathroom
4:29 am
Kazzer99

thats good - folks like a nice bathroom. We had a vile avocado one in the house we moved from but with the right shade of wall paint it looked okay
4:31 am
Glantarell

need cupboard doors putting back on, a bit of cleaning of plaster splashes and door putting back on and it will be done
4:32 am

I tend to think"hot" men on TV are usually gay, e.g. Hugh Jackman!
4:39 am

autism walk next sat.. weather...sunny and high in 60 ! yeaaaa
6:09 am
mrpresident

ivesy, we will be on any autism walk... they just changed the laws in australia to allow for carers of autistic children to get up to $30,000 a year in assistance from the government. We are so so happy about that
6:11 am
ivesy3

thats great! my sister gets assistance from our county for jays drs and such.. so far we have over 220 people. and donations around $4200. they are building a sensory playground at the school. this is the first walk in our immediate area.
6:11 am
dizgrannie

mrp could you puleeze post a sight for the autism walk....and revelent information...thanx heaps
6:13 am
mrpresident

our autism days are different to the USA, so when we have our next awareness day, I will let you know for sure diz!
6:13 am
ivesy3

a little story .. thats relates to why be need to have autism awareness. my nephew was having a meltdown in the store.. a lady told him he should be ashamed of himself.. and his mother must be disappointed in him.. mind you , he is 6!
6:16 am
mrpresident

it is so difficult to deal with people without a clue... and also a lot of stuff is coming up... for example: Autism is a highly heritable disorder, which is strongly influenced by genes. But it is not a genetic condition in the same way as Huntington's disease or cystic fibrosis, in which mutated DNA is the one and only cause. It is influenced by environmental factors, but what they are we do not yet know.
6:18 am
ivesy3

my sister has been changing his diet, etc. this past month he was student of the month at his school. shows you what they are capable.
6:18 am
mrpresident

ivesy, I would have strangled that woman!!
6:18 am
ivesy3

me too mrp... !
6:19 am
mrpresident

I have had friends of mine tell me to 'tame my child' and that my child was a huge problem. OK, he has a syndrome, but if she would educate herself and her family, they would have a much better time with him.
6:20 am
mrpresident

it is like telling a blind person to 'open your eyes and just look at it!'
6:21 am
ivesy3

thats rite.. my sister hears the same thing. our little guy went from not wanting to be touched to a very lovable little boy, now grabs my hand , kisses me, hugs me.. and they can be a joy if people would just not judge
6:22 am
mrpresident

that is great news ivesy! That means he trusts and loves you unconditionally and knows you would 'have his back' at any time
6:25 am
dizgrannie

ivesy. that is fantastic for the youg fella to come that far
6:27 am
mrpresident

I luv my son's autism! it makes him the extraordinary person that he is and gives him a deeper calling in life.
6:31 am
rubyfoo

I am vewry interested in autism. emple Grandin is my heroine!!!! My inbred chow chow Max is autistic and because of TG's books, I put him on Prozac and he went from bneing remote and unable to make eye contact or be willing to be touched to being a loving member of the family
6:31 am
rubyfoo

There is so much to be learned
6:31 am
rubyfoo

Temple Grandin!
6:32 am
rubyfoo

And have you read about the new measles epidemic in Europe, all cause by the one article in one scientific magazine that related measles vaccine to its incidence. It was later retracted, but the epidemic of measles persists
6:36 am
ivesy3

we are a bit concerned about the walk, he doesnt do well with so many people. it will be interesting to see how others cope with their autistic children.
6:37 am
rubyfoo

I think that crowds and noises must be a big problem for autistic children
6:37 am
ivesy3

i dont consider him having a "problem". he is who he is , my nephew
6:38 am
rubyfoo

does he like music in earphones to block out outside noise
6:38 am
rubyfoo

from what I read, extraneous noise upsets them
6:38 am
ivesy3

very much so ruby. thats why meltdowns occur in stores.. too much distraction. .thats a good idea ruby. will mention to my sister
6:39 am
rubyfoo

with earbuds and his favorite, soft music, it might help the crowd situation
6:40 am
rubyfoo

you might suggest reading Temple Grandin's books to yur sister, she is a wonderful guide to the syndrome as she, herself, is a very highly functioning autistic
6:41 am
ivesy3

will do that.. she is always looking for books on the subject.. bbs.. going to check that out
6:41 am
rubyfoo

bye for now

hey crossy, my son's looking at asking for an e-reader for his birthday and he originally said he wanted a Kindle but I told him to look at all his options. I know you are knowledgeable about e-readers, what's your adivce?

I have a Nook, and love it.

my advice at this time is to choose a sony or a barnes and noble nook reader

no, the books themselves, I think Kindles are around $9.99 per book, what about the nook?

and now for crossys daily bit of useless information...
11:15 am
crosshair

On Feb. 18, 1855, French-Canadian cattle dealer Louis Remme deposited $12,500 in gold in the Sacramento branch of the Adams & Company bank. Shortly afterward he received word that Page, Bacon & Company of St. Louis, the largest financial company west of the Alleghenies, had failed. He returned to the bank but it had already liquidated, depleted by desperate depositors.

So Remme jumped on a horse and rode 665 miles north in 143 hours, including 10 hours of sleep and brief stops for food. He arrived in Portland, Ore., on Feb. 26, went straight to the Adams & Company bank, presented his certificate of deposit, and withdrew the $12,500. He had beaten the steamer that carried news of the bank’s failure — and Portland had no telegraph.

11:18 am

nope keep in mind that the average man earned 25 cents a day at that time

I do that with the coins I brought back from Europe (before the Euro)
11:22 am

i have a 1915 newfoundland 50 cent piece from before they joined the confederation and still made their own money and i think this coun was minted during the potato famine and was the wages of a man for an entire day

rather stunning when you think people back then only earned one coin or less per day for their work

he has to have switched horses several times, cross, or the horse would have been all the way dead.

i am half way through reading the searies for the first time and have seen all the movies but these last 2 and think they did a reasonable job on it
12:40 pm
jesdraggon

best they could, and the movies were very pretty, but there was a lot of cutting. i tend to not like movies made from books much anyway--back to the nitpicky thing from earlier.
12:40 pm
jesdraggon

so if i'm gonna do book/movie combo, i try to watch the movie first, then read the book.
12:43 pm
crosshair

interesting..i will not watch a movie unless i have read the book first as the movie will spoil the superior book for me by giving me thier take on the looks of the characters instead of my minds eye creating them first
12:44 pm
jesdraggon

but the movies miss so much of the book, in general, that there is still a ton to discover in the book even after seeing the movie.
12:44 pm

this happen to me with harry potter..i ended up starting the series with the directors thoughts on what the character look like

12:47 pm
jesdraggon

i don't seem to have as much issue going from movie to book; if what i read disagrees with what the movie had, i just go with how it seems in my head while i read. the movie doesn't usually interfere
12:47 pm
jesdraggon

it's extremely rare that i like the movie more than the book anyway.
12:48 pm
crosshair

that what i mean jes,i prefer the books much more and do not want anyones notion on how everone looks like stuck in my head..but thats me;))

Bill Fagerbakke was born to play Tom Cullen. Ruby Dee was born to play Mother Abigail and Matt Frewer was born to play the trashcan man.
12:49 pm

i may have to look the movie up
12:50 pm
crosshair

misery turned into a good movie also
12:52 pm
jesdraggon

the only movie i can think of off hand that i liked significantly more than the book was swiss family robinson
12:52 pm
crosshair

i looked up the book form of forrest gump..nasty book!
12:53 pm
jesdraggon

never read it, or watched the movie
12:53 pm

the movie is well done

"To Kill A Mockingbird" comes to mind.....

Misery did turn into a good movie. I still can't believe Angelica Houston was originally offered the part of Annie Wilkes.
1:00 pm
Pinikula

Kathy Bates did the better job, Molly....
1:00 pm
crosshair

book rocks pini!
1:00 pm
Pinikula

wouldn't have been 'misery' if houston had played annie
1:01 pm
MollyL

I also agree about "To Kill A Mockingbird". That is a classic movie.
1:01 pm
MollyL

Angelica Houston can play "creepy" but not the kind of creepy that Annie Wilkes needed. Kathy Bates was more fit for the role.
1:03 pm
Pinikula

Bates "looks" normal with a side of evil; Houston is the reverse...
1:03 pm

Well put Pini.

1:11 pm
jesdraggon

which series, crossy? it was a radio series before it was books. and a tv series before it was movies.

1:12 pm

i was comparing the book to the bbc tv series
1:13 pm
jesdraggon

i read an interview by douglas adams about the differences between radio/tv/book series
1:13 pm
crosshair

as did i,even that was funny
1:13 pm
jesdraggon

that was a tad strange too... something about the original idea occuring to him as he was lying drunk in a field staring at the stars
1:14 pm
rubyfoo

on French TV, sometimes they show American or British series but not necessarily in sequence! very frustrating
1:14 pm
crosshair

anyways power nap for crossy.bbl...ponk!
1:14 pm
jesdraggon

and then how characters in the book did totally different things, but for the same reasons as they'd had in the radio, and others did exactly the same things they'd done but for totally different reasons...

roberta, try to find as many words as you can. you can go any direction, but can't use the same tile twice
1:49 pm
Silkpanda

Am I just supposd to make words>
1:50 pm
JenMO16

you look for words in the grid up, down, backwards, forwards, at least 4-letter words, the words can also be around each other
1:50 pm
Pinikula

It's like playing Boggle, Roberta...simply make words by connecting the letters in consecutive order
1:50 pm
LeslieAnn

yep. remember to put them over in the box that says "Add Word:" not here :)
1:50 pm
JenMO16

yes, leslie ann
1:52 pm

hi again all! back from church, need to spend most of the day grading papers (so guess what I am doing instead...)
1:53 pm
Silkpanda

so, I did, the s. Can I delete the s? or rewrite toga?
1:53 pm
LeslieAnn

you should have that word under "my word list" now, roberta
1:54 pm
LeslieAnn

there are 147 words in this grid, so you have more to find :)
1:54 pm
Pinikula

all words must be at least 4 letters long...you can plural anything, but remember to put words in the "add word" box...not here in the chog
1:55 pm
LeslieAnn

the tile stats mean: how many words you have that start with that letter / how many words start with that letter total. so if your s says 1/10, it means you have one word that starts with s, out of 10 words that start with s total
1:58 pm
MollyL

Poor Sue. Grading papers seems like the never ending chore for you.
1:59 pm

4:24 pm
Soodlebum

I actually have some 'before & after' pics, Sue. (I had to, for the insurance company). I will see if one of the offspring can put them on FB.
4:24 pm
uusue2

that would be neat :-)
4:25 pm
Nef

HI and bye, jilli. (I was distracted by DH's Aunt for a bit). I love being a Gramma. Poor little guys' Mom has several mental problems and decided to spend the day alone. She always decides to sit out Holidays and then says we hate her

4:38 pm
Soodlebum

The Masai Warrior shields and spears which we got in Kenya some years ago, and which adorned the walls have now been binned, so a sitting room with no warrior stuff has to be better.......
4:39 pm
uusue2

you got rid of them? bummer, although I do understand the calming effect of not having weapons on display ..
4:40 pm
Soodlebum

Nope, Sue, my daughter, who obviously has Squirrel DNA retrieved them all from the dumpster, and has them all under her bed. She couldn't bear the thought of them being thrown out. Sheesh!
4:41 pm

If we shadows have offended,

Think but this and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
If you pardon, we will mend.
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long;
Else the Puck a liar call:
So, good night unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.

9:13 pm

my son thinks we need a new router, he needs to reboot it every time he hooks his Xbox up to Netflix
9:13 pm

hi, young, you can click on my profile - I am 59 :-)
9:14 pm

and I teach physics at a university

and congratulations on finishing the puzzle, young!
9:15 pm
uusue2

(I remember now why I came back to the computer - need to check tomorrow's schedule, somehow my phone is not getting online properly)
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

a new router makes sense
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

how old is the one you have
9:16 pm
uusue2

oh dear, jmc, it is certainly not new. Probably of the order of 10 years or so.
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

lol then it is time!
9:17 pm
uusue2

I suppose so :-)
9:17 pm
uusue2

it is possible that it belongs to Comcast - the modem certainly does - but I don't think there's any reason we can't replace it ourselves
9:18 pm
jmcnrick

maybe you should ask them--they tout their service
9:19 pm
uusue2

true. I have been pretty happy with them.
9:20 pm
Nef

A new router can cost as little as $40-50, and you can do it yourself. Even *I* can do that, uusue
9:21 pm
uusue2

lol, nef, I won't have any trouble installing it. Just hate spending money if I don't have to (but I suppose at some point I will have to...)
9:21 pm
jmcnrick

blech it was a beautiful spring day and i came home from meeting and feel asleep for 3 hours
9:21 pm
jmcnrick

you could upgrade to wifi uu
9:21 pm
uusue2

oh well. there will be more nice days, jmc, and you must have needed the sleep.
9:21 pm
jmcnrick

*fell
9:22 pm
Nef

I have Comcast for the internet and phone; but the squirrels kept chewing through the TV cables, so we have Direct TV for that. Comcast service wasn't so great with the squirrel problems
9:22 pm
jmcnrick

yeah but now i am all groggy even though i have been up for several hours
9:22 pm
uusue2

it is a wifi modem, jmc, but the wireless part of it is a little feeble so I have my computer (and SO's) hardwired in. Son's computer and both our smartphones use the wireless.
9:23 pm
jmcnrick

how is direct tv? I would give my eyeteeth to get rid of comcast
9:23 pm
jmcnrick

then you really should break down if it is that weak uu
9:23 pm
uusue2

I have comcast for all three, nef, but the squirrels confine themselves to my lawn furniture and fruit trees for the most part.
9:24 pm
uusue2

yeah, I know. It mattered less when we had fewer devices connected to it (and I forgot to count the kid's Xbox, so that's six devices)
9:25 pm
jmcnrick

i have comcast for tv because i have no choice but i use something else that i can't remember with my foggy brain for phone and internet
9:25 pm
jmcnrick

clear that is who
9:25 pm
Nef

Direct TV is a lot better picture than Comcast; much less problems with what I call Pixellating
9:25 pm
jmcnrick

i hope it doesn't rain so i can garden in the morning
9:25 pm
jmcnrick

oh i hate the pixellating
9:26 pm
uusue2

ah yes, we have been getting a lot of pixellations lately
9:26 pm
uusue2

but it is so cheap I hate to give it up...
9:26 pm
jmcnrick

my neighbors across the street had direct tv but i am not sure I can i know i cant get any other cable than comcast
9:26 pm
jmcnrick

maybe a new modem will help that too uu
9:27 pm
uusue2

well, direct tv is a satellite so you will need to have a place to put a dish that has an unobstructed view
9:27 pm
jmcnrick

everyone around here puts it in their attic
9:27 pm
uusue2

I had dish network a long time ago and it was fine but didn't have internet or phone with it
9:28 pm
uusue2

attic would work, probably, as long as no metal around
9:28 pm
jmcnrick

like foil on insultation?
9:29 pm
uusue2

if it's not between the satellite and the sky it shouldn't matter
9:29 pm
uusue2

but the installers should be able to tell you
9:29 pm
jmcnrick

well i think i will wait until all my construction on my new kitchen is done
9:31 pm
uusue2

oh that makes sense, jmc
9:33 pm
jmcnrick

i am trying to be logical so i cut down the trees in the back yard to get ready
9:33 pm
jmcnrick

now I am building some shelves to move stuff from the kitchen to temporarily
9:34 pm
jmcnrick

then I am renovating a closet in the gu*** room for me to use while I am booted from my bedroom during the reno
9:35 pm
jmcnrick

and throwing things away all while i am waiting for the permits
9:35 pm
uusue2

good planning, jmc. my house is suffering from an ex who liked to start projects but didn't finish them so I have three rooms that are torn apart but no more money to finish anything
9:36 pm
jmcnrick

well i had an architect friend who tore a hole in the wall of my bedroom 6 years ago to which is still there! lol
9:37 pm
uusue2

ha, I know how that is!
9:37 pm
jmcnrick

i try to do a little at a time so the cost is not too bad -- wait for sales and such
9:38 pm
jmcnrick

my living room pillows are all covered with remnants
9:38 pm
uusue2

indeed; mine is totally on hold at the moment as I am now paying college tuition, though
9:38 pm
jmcnrick

i have to pay for some summer school then I gu*** i will have to pay for my own tuition
9:39 pm
uusue2

ah; I'm paying for my son. My education is over, I think.
9:39 pm
uusue2

Formally, anyway.
9:40 pm
jmcnrick

the summer school is the last of my son's college then he is on his own
9:40 pm
jmcnrick

i keep thinking my education is over (never been good at school) but . . . .
9:40 pm
jmcnrick

then went back to law school
9:41 pm
jmcnrick

then i did an mba (which i didn't finish when the last semester was writing a resume)
9:41 pm
jmcnrick

now I am looking at a masters in conflict transformation
9:43 pm
uusue2

yes i remember you talking about the masters in conflict transformation, sounds really interesting. I considered law school at one point but went into academic administration instead (which ultimately didn't work out so now I am back in the department)
9:44 pm
uusue2

although I could have gone to law school here so it would have been free...
9:47 pm
jmcnrick

i don't recommend law school unless you really really want to be a lawyer
9:48 pm
uusue2

partly why I didn't go :-)
9:56 pm
stidmama

currently I don't recommend grad school... ((Hugs all))

a guy walks into a bar and seems extremely angry.. slams up to the bar and demands a beer...the bartender gives him one..he pounds it down and slams it on the bar and demands a second one.. the guy next to him is just staring at him.. the angry guy yells at the bartender..."gimmee another beer" the bartender carefully brings him one.. and he wolfs if down and slams it on the bar.. the guy next to him is still staring at him and the angy guys says"All lawyers are assholes.." and the guy next to him says.. I resent that!... the angry guy says.. "what are youan attorney?" ..no the guy next to him says blandly .. I'm an asshole..
