1:45 am
joshuavorbis

1:45 am
mrpresident

social services are all red tape and no brains.
1:46 am
jillibus

that sounds typical, mrp -- how frustrating.
1:46 am
m9f9l

a cherry thought
1:47 am
mrpresident

i will not be paid disability pension until they 'see' me next week... grrr, and my family allowance was stopped in May 2010!!! crikey!! they owe me a lot of money!!
1:47 am
jillibus

why was the allowance stopped?
1:47 am
mrpresident

and you think I can get it??
"We are so sorry Mrs P... there is a glitch on our end blah blah blah"
I NEED MONEY, CAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANY!!!
1:48 am
mrpresident

Mark stopped it for whatever reason he did.
1:48 am
jillibus

OMG, mrp!
1:48 am
mrpresident

We are entitled to family allowance, and he stopped it??? I don't understand
1:49 am
m9f9l

ok. boughing out for reals.
1:49 am
mrpresident

I am beginning to see the bigger picture now jilli... this isn't just 6 months of stress, this is at least 3 years!! and the 'black dog' got him good.
1:49 am
m9f9l

nite all. hope you get it worked out mrp.
1:49 am
jillibus

I hope you have a credit card, mrp
1:50 am
mrpresident

yeah m9, as long as I do what they want me to do :((
1:50 am
mrpresident

jilli, I apparently have 6 credit cards! didn't know that!!!
1:50 am
jillibus

How can you not know?
1:51 am
jillibus

I hope they're not maqxed out.
1:51 am
mrpresident

cause he is the financial controller of the company and whenever another 'offer' came in the mail for a $15K credit card, he took it on.
1:51 am
jillibus

*maxed
1:52 am
mrpresident

jilli, they are maxed out.... completely and utterly. Oh, I do have $19.34 so that is something...
1:52 am
jillibus

Can the credit cards tide you over?
1:52 am
jillibus

Oh, I see they can't.
1:54 am
jillibus

Btw, mrp, don't worry about our visit in March. We won't impose on you.
1:55 am
mrpresident

bullshit jilli!! i will be so fine!!
1:56 am
jillibus

well, there's no rush
1:56 am
mrpresident

and I have to see you, will be the highlight of my year!!
1:59 am
jillibus

Oh, I'm sure there will be many higher lights, lol!
2:00 am
jillibus

Will you be checking email regularly, mrp?
2:04 am
jillibus

I've just been reading Bill Bryson's "In a Sunburned Country", about Australia. How do you like this quotation: ""All those things eighty-year-olds seem to enjoy -- staring vacantly out windows, dozing in a chair, boring the pants of anyone foolish enough to sit beside them..." (Not me!)
2:04 am
jillibus

After all, I'm not just 80, I'm 84, so there.
2:06 am
jillibus

And now I must go to bed -- early start (for me) tomorrow.

rubyfoo

good morning
2:23 am
westford

hello ((ruby))
2:25 am
rubyfoo

westford, it is so nice to see you!
2:25 am
westford

nice to see you too ruby
2:26 am
westford

was just about to call it a night and I remembered this is the time you usually come in
2:26 am
westford

so I stayed
2:26 am
rubyfoo

we continue to be lucky with our weather. It's chilly at night, down to about 50, and then up to 80 for a couple of hours in the afternoon.
2:26 am
rubyfoo

that is very sweet!
2:26 am
westford

I enjoy your company
2:26 am
westford

how are things in rubyville?
2:26 am
dizgrannie

MrP, Centrelink cannot just stop child payments, whether he said to or not.....check all accounts, co they still have to pay you for you kiddos
2:27 am
rubyfoo

what I dislike, though, about this season, is that it gets dark so fast. The upside of that, of course, is that in June it is light by 5 and lasts until 11PM
2:27 am
rubyfoo

I was never so aware of that, living in the eastern US
2:27 am
westford

agree ruby hate to think of kids waiting for the bus in the dark
2:28 am
westford

do you have DST? or is that just a dumb American invention?
2:28 am
rubyfoo

and the minute the sun sets, the temp drps 20 degrees! However, there are still flowers: roses, sedum, aconitum, just-planted pansies, geraniums, perovskia
2:29 am
rubyfoo

if the fact that when I nap, I turn the light on my face, yes. But I've always done that
2:29 am
westford

that's nice ruby..our flowers are pretty much gone
2:29 am
scouser

Hi Ruby. What does perovskia look like?
2:29 am
rubyfoo

oh wait, hahah, I thought DST was that light-craving disorder....duh! Yes, we have dst but one or two weeks off from the US
2:30 am
westford

the neighbor has a pot of bright yellow chrysanthemums by her front door. She's across the street so it's the first thing I see when I open my door
2:30 am
westford

that's SAD
2:30 am
rubyfoo

it has tiny purple flowers on loon pale green, minty-smelling branches. I picked the plant from a small illustration and it is fine if it's not too close to the house
2:30 am
westford

the light craving disorder..not the flowers
2:31 am
rubyfoo

long (not loon)
2:31 am
westford

sounds like a Russian ballet dancer
2:31 am
rubyfoo

I have it in the descending border with white roses, so it's pretty enough, but messy, too
2:32 am
rubyfoo

or a far-Eastern Russian city....
2:32 am
westford

that sounds very pretty
2:32 am
scouser

We still have cosmos pale purple, Michaelmas daisies also purple (aster), geraniums, and the pinkish remains of hydrangea. Also those "naked boys" crocus with no leaves also purple
2:32 am
rubyfoo

hello scouser
2:32 am
westford

hi scouser and diz
2:33 am
rubyfoo

the garden is in themed-portions (sounds grand, but isn't, really) because it is on a hillside.
2:33 am
rubyfoo

oh yes, asters, too
2:33 am
scouser

I like the idea of minty-smelling branches !
2:34 am
rubyfoo

so by the front steps, it is the wedding-bouquet timy) garden, around the bird feeder (and hawk diner) is the "Japanese garden", but one of the tiny maples is dying.
2:34 am
scouser

we have big trees so I should get lots of cyclamen (country-name is sowbread) and put them at the bases.
2:34 am
rubyfoo

we also have catmint, regular mint and lavender in various places
2:34 am
westford

I love the thought of a wedding bouquet
2:35 am
rubyfoo

I love cyclamen!!! I didn't know you could put it in the ground; here they sell it for indoor pots
2:35 am
westford

do you let the local brides come and pick their own?
2:35 am
scouser

hawk diner - that is brilliant! Wish hawks were strong enough to take out a squirrel or two. The greys are definitely taking over here, shouting all the time: noisy rats indeed.
2:36 am
rubyfoo

in spring, the wedding bouquet has various pink tulips, lavender iris, white allyssum [sp?]
2:36 am
westford

we have squirrels too..busy making holes in the lawn now
2:36 am
rubyfoo

I love the hawk since I've gotten to know her so well (from when she came in the house) buty now she picks off (or at least tries to) birds from the feeder and stands on my window box
2:37 am
scouser

To return to the Babble I hope there are fewer babblets than yesterday: there were some wallopers!
2:37 am
rubyfoo

we've had 2 squirrels in 15 summers, I think the locals have eaten them all
2:37 am
westford

I'm surprised the little ones don't gang up on her
2:37 am
rubyfoo

one was a scrawny little black one and the other, not in our garden, was a huge fluffy red
2:38 am
westford

do they wear the tails on their hats too?
2:38 am
scouser

Yes westford - they are looking for the bulbs. They have a race-hatred against tulips.
2:38 am
rubyfoo

no, but they have fur coats that look like they're made of 200 finy skins! like what you'd find in a Salvation Army shop in a poor neighborhood
2:39 am
westford

everything we had was plowed under when we put in our patio..had a ton of invasive plants
2:39 am
westford

my ooh la la version of France is going downhill fast ruby
2:40 am
rubyfoo

it is impossible to keep up with the weeds here; when weeding, you can practically feel them winding around your feet
2:40 am
westford

but some are so pretty
2:41 am
scouser

Yes I fight a losing battle against a member of the umbellifera family known as "ground elder" or "Bishop's weed" and which rushes about on rhizomes just beneath the soil and can grow from 1mm of that left in the ground.
2:42 am
rubyfoo

when we first planted the garden, I put in more than 300 tulips, gorgeous the first year. The 2nd year there were 89, the 3rd, about 50. Now there are a few that have multiplied but the moles or voles or whatever that we had in the beginning are gone. Maybe they make mole bourgignon
2:42 am
westford

those runners are killer
2:42 am
rubyfoo

what does that look like, scouser
2:42 am
scouser

cannibal bourgignon?
2:43 am
westford

don't let Julia Child hear you
2:43 am
rubyfoo

jain
2:43 am
westford

close ruby
2:43 am
rubyfoo

whoops, capitalized, I guess.
2:43 am
westford

the word you're looking for is a plural
2:44 am
scouser

the ground elder has leaves that look a bit like the elder tree (sambucus) and comes straight out the ground as a stem with a leaf on it which spreads out to fill available space. it also smells like sambucus when crushed. later it has a thinly spread umbel (like cow parsley) in dainty white.
2:44 am
rubyfoo

hmm, I'm looking it up
2:44 am
rubyfoo

slap me with a fish, west
2:44 am
westford

was it originally used as a ground cover?
2:45 am
rubyfoo

is sambucco made from sambucus?
2:45 am
westford

rhymes with a martini liquor
2:45 am
westford

I was just wondering that myself
2:45 am
rubyfoo

we have horrible cottoneaster which covers anything it can
2:45 am
scouser

It makes excellent ground cover which excludes all else but dies down in winter leaving a desert: like Jap. Knotweed.
2:46 am
scouser

yes ruby - elderberry wine is one of strongest English drinks
2:46 am
westford

cottoneaster ..makes me think of hiding colored eggs
2:46 am
rubyfoo

you are much more knowledgeable than I, scouser, I just chose things for the garden by color
2:47 am
rubyfoo

that is funny, westford, but it's thorny and nasty
2:47 am
westford

we had fiddle head ferns..so pretty when they first came out of the ground and then took over half the yard
2:47 am
scouser

I am not in charge of the flowering bits in the garden, Sheila does those. I just try to manage acres of unruly shrubbery.
2:47 am
scouser

I belong to the Knights-who-say-Ni !
2:48 am
scouser

For those who are going ???? refer to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
2:48 am
rubyfoo

uh oh, DH is back with the groceries
2:48 am
westford

that's a favorite word ..shrubbery
2:48 am
rubyfoo

I haven't seen it, but I figured
2:49 am
rubyfoo

did you eat the ferns, west? I've heard they're tasty
2:49 am
westford

my husband was going for milk..I asked him to pick up a few vegetables..he brought home a can of peas..we've been married 46 years and have never had canned peas
2:49 am
millsbooks

HELP ! i have lickety for oct 5th but does not match the grid......have refreshed the page and it`s still the same
2:49 am
scouser

There's a first time for everything.
2:49 am
westford

no we didn't eat the ferns..I found out later that the Vermont Country Store sells them canned
2:50 am
rubyfoo

I hope that's a funny story, west, not an apocryphal one
2:50 am
rubyfoo

I think that you eat the early shoots, maybe sauteed in butter. But then again, you could saute yoour slippers in butter.....
2:50 am
westford

mills lickety is not here..jillibus has a list in her profile
2:51 am
rubyfoo

hi mills
2:51 am
westford

agree ruby..anything sauteed in butter is sooo good
2:51 am
millsbooks

hi ruby, hi all
2:52 am
westford

I copied the list before she left..I can post it here if you like
2:52 am
scouser

Hi Mills. Lickety out of action for the forseeable, it was announced last weekend. VolleymomDee also gets list into her profile - not there yet though.
2:52 am
westford

she got it from Neil
2:53 am
millsbooks

ty i`ll find it in rankings
2:53 am
westford

okay
2:55 am
rubyfoo

false alarm, he's not back
2:55 am
westford

does he shop every day? that's nice for you
2:55 am
rubyfoo

he does all the food shopping but there are many "canned peas" episodes
2:56 am
rubyfoo

it gives him something to do
2:56 am
westford

what do you do with them?
2:56 am
rubyfoo

I cook whatever he buys (or toss it)
2:57 am
westford

squirrel stew with canned peas..yum
2:59 am
rubyfoo

they make worse!
3:00 am
westford

we had the best meal in Cannes..soup to nuts so they tell me..had the worst cold and couldn't taste a thing
3:00 am
rubyfoo

did you ever see the Kliban cartoon "soup to nuts"?
3:00 am
westford

no
3:00 am
westford

is it funny?
3:01 am
westford

I'll look it up
3:01 am
rubyfoo

it is a waiter serving a meal to a bunch of obvious crazies....sorry
3:01 am
westford

sounds good
3:01 am
westford

is it animated or a comic?
3:02 am
rubyfoo

I guess Kliban was a 60's-70's fad
3:02 am
rubyfoo

there were books, bed linens, t-shirts
3:02 am
westford

I think I can see it in the back of my mind
3:02 am
rubyfoo

my son, who was little then, loved it
3:02 am
rubyfoo

heavy ink lines
3:02 am
westford

sort of a Ziggy character?
3:03 am
rubyfoo

I think
3:03 am
westford

I'll bet it was very popular
3:04 am
westford

our friend's daughter works as a server..might try to find it for her
3:04 am
rubyfoo

it would be a great t-shirt for her!
3:04 am
westford

notice I said server..can't say waiter or waitress anymore
3:04 am
rubyfoo

that's like letter carrier
3:05 am
westford

I wrote a poem once about a person hole cover
3:05 am
rubyfoo

I only have 60 words, but two nifty ones: wh5/20 and ir6/21
3:05 am
rubyfoo

I love that!
3:06 am
rubyfoo

it becomes even more difficult in French because all nouns are gender-specific, e.g. breast (sein) is masculin
3:06 am
westford

I wonder who thought that one up
3:07 am
rubyfoo

and there seems to be no rationale, just one more thing to me**rize
3:07 am
westford

probably comes from breast plate on a suit of armor
3:08 am
rubyfoo

maybe...
3:08 am
westford

sometimes PBS has French on late at night and they don't speak English at all..just have to follow along
3:09 am
rubyfoo

what sort of programs?
3:10 am
westford

supposedly to help you learn the language but there are no subtitles
3:10 am
westford

they just have every day scenes
3:10 am
rubyfoo

that would be very hard; even though I had a lot of Fr in school, it still took me a while to be able to understand movies and TV
3:11 am
rubyfoo

oh, so it's actually a teaching show
3:11 am
westford

yes..I love to listen to them speaking
3:12 am
westford

all the Romance languages are so pretty
3:13 am
rubyfoo

I miss hearing my friends speaking English! My best friend from MD called the other night and it made me both sad and happy
3:13 am
westford

I had Latin and Spanish in school and one year of German for fun..I was the only female in the class
3:13 am
rubyfoo

we were only offered Fr or Spanish
3:13 am
westford

loved Latin
3:14 am
rubyfoo

I imagine that with Latin, you would have a leg up on all the other Romance languages
3:14 am
westford

it does help..even here
3:15 am
westford

I think schools are starting to offer it again
3:15 am
rubyfoo

what is funny now for me, is that I can tell where (even French) people come from by their accents in the language
3:15 am
rubyfoo

there are a lot of Italians here, bi-lingual, but I can always tell
3:16 am
westford

they speak with their hands?
3:16 am
rubyfoo

yes and the vowel sounds are a little different
3:17 am
westford

it must be so interesting
3:17 am
rubyfoo

yes
3:17 am
rubyfoo

emiric
3:17 am
westford

lots of ex-pats?
3:18 am
rubyfoo

unfortunately, husband can't hear well enough to understand, even though his reading is much better than mine
3:18 am
rubyfoo

not in our village; nobody speaks English here
3:19 am
westford

do you sometimes get lonely for spoken English..except at home?
3:19 am
rubyfoo

definitely, and since husband can't hear, we don't really converse, he just makes speeches
3:19 am
rubyfoo

luckily, my son, sister and some friends telephone
3:20 am
westford

picturing him in a toga with a laurel wreath on his head
3:20 am
rubyfoo

that would be perfect; you nailed it, west!!! hahah
3:20 am
westford

that's good about the phone
3:21 am
rubyfoo

and there's babble and friends like you!
3:21 am
westford

I'm surprised the villagers don't want to practice their English on you
3:21 am
westford

what would we do without babble?
3:21 am
rubyfoo

they are too embarrassed and also too old!
3:22 am
rubyfoo

my husband, although he could do it, won't speak French as he doesn't want to make mistakes. I, on the other hand, make mistakes but don't care.
3:22 am
rubyfoo

and every day, I learn a new word
3:22 am
westford

and I'll bet the people love you for trying
3:22 am
Dianne

Hi all
3:22 am
rubyfoo

talking to everyone
3:22 am
rubyfoo

hello Dianne
3:22 am
westford

hello Dianne
3:23 am
Dianne

ruby - does your husband wear a hearing aid?
3:23 am
westford

how very cool..you're in Hong Kong
3:23 am
rubyfoo

they don't even mind my accent, which surprises me
3:24 am
rubyfoo

he has two, but refuses to wear them. Today, I made an appointment for him with the audiologist, to try to adjust them so that he can stand them
3:24 am
rubyfoo

we circle the globe this morning, but for Dianne it's tomorrow
3:24 am
Dianne

Yes, in Hong Kong and can't speak the language:( I can speak "taxi cab" Chinese.
3:24 am
rubyfoo

he's back.....!
3:25 am
Dianne

Why does he refuse to wear them? His life would be so much better if he didn't make himself so islated.
3:25 am
westford

I have so enjoyed our conversation but must get going as well..nice to meet you too Dianne..hope to see you again
3:26 am
Dianne

bye west
3:26 am
westford

*poof
3:35 am
dizgrannie

Hi all!, back again, just had a quick read thro the chog, hey Ruby, if hubby won't wear his hearing aids, then IMO, he is an idiot....sorry just me, have had mine since the age of 9 (57 now) and I can recall missing out on hearing things from an early age. When my dad had to get them quite a few yrs back, I reminded him on what he used to say to me - 'Don't let others try and control what you wear to help you thro life, tis better for you and 'stuff what others think'. God Bless me Dad, RIP
3:36 am

hi peeps

3:39 am
EspritdJean

from Elizabeth, Union County. You from NJ too?
3:39 am
Dianne

Then again I ask - where in China?
3:39 am
Dianne

I lived in West Orange for several years before moving here.
3:41 am
EspritdJean

Beijing, Chengdu, X'ian, Shanghai, Jiuzhagou, Xuzhou
3:42 am
Dianne

Wow - what a great trip.
3:42 am
EspritdJean

yes very interesting
3:42 am
EspritdJean

my son lives in Xuzhou
3:42 am
EspritdJean

he just got married last month
3:43 am
Dianne

Did he get married in
3:43 am
Dianne

China?
3:44 am
EspritdJean

China, to a Chinese
3:44 am
Dianne

So you got to meet the family on this trip.
3:46 am
EspritdJean

Yes, met family, friends, got to see things from a different perspective than group tour

I bought it originally to get away from AT&T in NY and have had it ever since. Just a phone w/a few games but it comes in handy when I need it

But how does the autodialer know? and why would the telemarketer vcare?

unlimited doesn't exist here any more either except for a few carriers, and most of those slow the speed way down if you go over 2 GB
2:37 pm

I need to look at international data rates and call roaming before we travel this winter - otherwise could get REALLY expensive if we don't change our habits!
2:37 pm

I've been getting a flood of telemarketing lately although I'm on the no-call list. But besides politicians being allowed, so are researchers (I checked) and that's the gimmick these nuisances are using now -- they say they're conducting a survey. I hang up, but recently saw a suggestion from Andy Rooney (supposedly) to just leave the phone off the hook until you get the beep beep beep. This apparently ties up the telemarketers' lines and tey take you off their list. I'll have to check that with snopes, though.

I think half our neighborhood tried it. Most of them ditched it too
2:46 pm

I just hang up as fast as possible - it's not the caller's fault, they are just people trying to make a living and have to do what they are told (most of them have a script that they must follow).

I have to assume they all have these stupid BBUs sitting in their houses too

well stid, I remembered that I got that camera (a300) to replace my a100 that had a screw loose inside (seemed better to just get a "new" used one rather than spring for repair). That a100 is still kind of usable.. just can't switch lenses often.
6:05 pm
Jellen

I met with the department chair today. I will definitely be teaching at least one evening class.
6:05 pm
m9f9l

and the all purpose lens with macro that I'd pretty much been shooting all the time with I can replace used for about 40 bucks

bummed to go back to the a100, but WAY better than it could be.

I used to believe that stid, but I can't help all the kids who need help and you can't help those who don't want help so I just feel frustrated every day. Which needy kids do I ignore today? is not the question I should have each class.

i don't have enough letters, because I haven't piled them

whatever, i am the biggest dork ever, and my students love me
9:14 pm

Unfortunately - part of the problem here is PhDs who don't want to teach - at least not undergraduate courses... so they don't - the "buy out" - but that limits the courses we can offer and even though there is theoretically money - we aren't allowed to use it to hire
9:14 pm

gotcha, lbd, bullshit, more shit, piled higher and deeper
9:16 pm

I love the grad student who taught my stats class. she'd laugh at us all the time, and repeat herself in as many different ways as possible, have study and review sessions too. She was the greatest!

Interesting, Cad. Not many professors can get away with that here. They have to carry a certain number of undergrad courses as well as grad courses AND be doing research or publishing.

i am tutoring grad students, but not grad stats students. Their professor is a recent MIT grad, he doesn't remember how to tone it down

engineers are a different breed - most are only required to teach 3 courses per year...at least here
9:22 pm

i work in a tiny department ( look at lsu college of ag, department of experimental statistics). We are at a point where most of our faculty is going to retire soon, and budget cuts make life hell.
