Something weird is going on with my keyboard -- when I hit the question mark this É appears. When I want the caret this ? appears! Backward slash produces à. Forward slash gives é. HELP!!!

2:10 am

sprite

morning all. Control + shift, jilli

2:12 am

jillibus

Thanks, sprite! Now I can get the things I want -- ^, ?, etc. How did you know?

2:12 am

jillibus

Looks as if it was going all French on me

2:12 am

sprite

:) It is the keyboard switch. I have struggled with it myself, hence I know.

2:13 am

jillibus

Well, I'll be jiggered. Why don't they tell us these things?

2:14 am

sprite

beats me. Took me ages to figure it out.

2:24 am

jillibus

Well, that would be nice :-)

2:30 am

2:47 am

Kallia

2:47 am

sprite

oh I love rock 'n' roll

2:47 am

westford

Branagh and his then wife Emma Thomson were so good in Henry V

2:48 am

rubyfoo

Bill Nighy is amazing but I never saw him in anything when he was young, he se**s to have sprung up "full-grown"

2:48 am

rubyfoo

and she makes a small appearance in this film too, I'm not even sure it was credited

2:49 am

westford

two great actors..too bad they split..

2:50 am

sprite

usa name = the boat that rocked

2:50 am

Glantarell

maybe it was too much ego in one household!

2:50 am

2:50 am

sprite

usa name = the boat that rocked

2:50 am

2:51 am

westford

it is mostly dark isn't it ?

2:51 am

rubyfoo

it is one of the few series my husband likes although I find it very dark. I loved the books, however, and I think Branagh is brilliant

2:53 am

rubyfoo

I never know what films/series husband will like. I'm a movie geek and will watch almost anything that doesn't have gangs and too much violence (although, I must admit that I liked The History of Violence with Viggo Mortensen)

2:53 am

rubyfoo

Viggo naked!

2:53 am

Glantarell

i went to see cowboys & aliens recently and was surprised how much i enjoyed that

2:53 am

3:07 am

westford

3:07 am

westford

we can watch them on our computers too

3:08 am

rubyfoo

that is much too hi-tech for me

3:08 am

westford

I have a DVD question for all you people across the pond

3:09 am

westford

I have sent DVD's to my friend in England but she can only watch them on her computer

3:09 am

westford

she doesn't have a laptop so it's sit in front of the desktop

3:09 am

sprite

different format, west. We have PAL here, and you have, I think NTCS or something like that.

3:10 am

westford

I wish it wasn't so

3:10 am

rubyfoo

that's what my son's wife said, the reason we couldn't play US DVD's on our TV

3:10 am

sprite

NTCS. It is a region code.

3:10 am

Glantarell

my computer will play US DVDs but only once and then mu computer wants me to change my region

3:10 am

westford

too bad there isn't a converter

3:11 am

westford

but VHS tapes work

3:11 am

sprite

they can be converted, as far as I know

3:11 am

rubyfoo

John said I would need 2 DVD players

3:11 am

Glantarell

some DVD players here will play DVDs form any region - my sony one will

3:12 am

sprite

west, check out google, or start here: http://www.bestshareware.net/howto/con
vert-between-pal-and-ntsc-formats.htm

3:12 am

westford

maybe I could order them from there and have them sent directly to her

3:12 am

sprite

my dvd player plays everything too.

3:12 am

westford

oh thanks sprite I will do that

3:12 am

sprite

not if you do it on the computer, ruby.

3:13 am

rubyfoo

I think that would put my husband over the edge, if I spent even more time down here!

3:14 am

sprite

lol, you need you-time, rubyfoo.

3:14 am

rubyfoo

I can't complain about that, but there are limits! hahah

3:21 am

sprite

3:21 am

sprite

(come on, give up those cookies)

3:21 am

rubyfoo

OK, name your poison!

3:22 am

rubyfoo

actually, I am better at tarts, my cookies are always sort of tasty lumps

3:22 am

sprite

love almost all home made cookies :)

3:22 am

sprite

I especially love tasty lumps

3:22 am

rubyfoo

with homemade jam?

3:22 am

westford

me too

3:24 am

Glantarell

mmm scones with jam and cream

3:25 am

sprite

oh yes

3:25 am

westford

is that what kallia made for breakfast?

3:26 am

sprite

I so want to make a biggie with the womanly fe* start... but it se5 I cannot.

3:26 am

Glantarell

no, kallias husband made crumpets with butter!

3:26 am

westford

just as good !!

3:27 am

Glantarell

do you have English crumpets in the US and Canada and rance?

3:27 am

westford

it's there sprite

3:27 am

Glantarell

*France

3:27 am

sprite

I don't know what crumpets are, actually

3:27 am

rubyfoo

no, can't even get decent English muffins or pita

3:27 am

sprite

ok, thanks west *renewing hunt*

3:27 am

westford

we have them but don't know if they're authentic..good though

3:28 am

Glantarell

Crumpets - they are stange things made by cooking a thick batter in rings in a heavy based pan - very deep holes to hold the butter

3:28 am

Glantarell

they are a love/hate thing - can't be neutral about them

3:29 am

Glantarell

sort of slightly rubbery

3:29 am

westford

we have scones not crumpets

3:29 am

westford

I think I would love crumpets

3:29 am

Glantarell

scones are made in a similar way to cakes - completely different to crum pets

3:30 am

rubyfoo

half,m and sneaking up for a second breakfast!

3:38 am

westford

do you get the Ken Burns series sprite?

3:38 am

Martin Belle

hi sprite and westford.

3:38 am

westford

A new one on Prohibition has started..it's amazing

3:38 am

westford

hi martin

3:39 am

sprite

hey Beau!

3:39 am

sprite

I don't know the Ken Burns series. *off to google*

3:39 am

westford

there are several sprite..they are documentaries

3:40 am

Glantarell

finally got the fe10 - so many owrds it could/should have been

3:40 am

sprite

ah I found him. I might have se4 some of his work on tv.

3:40 am

westford

gj glant that one was hard

3:41 am

dizgrannie

wtg Glant

3:41 am

sprite

gj Glant

3:41 am

westford

sprite he does extraordinary work

3:42 am

sprite

will keep an eye out for him then, west!

3:42 am

westford

mostly US subjects..Civil War, Baseball, National Parks are a few

3:43 am

westford

I wish he'd give us some European history

3:43 am

sprite

darn, his national parks series is posted on usenet, but only for blu ray. Well, I will remember to check for him.

3:43 am

sprite

I don't watch any war related documentaries or movies. Baseball and the national parks look good though!

3:46 am

westford

he seems to go for personal observations more than blood and gore

3:46 am

westford

but I can understand your choice

3:46 am

dizgrannie

F's finalized

3:47 am

westford

wtg diz

Hey Lickety is up again! Goodly times.

3:48 am

westford

yes scouser thanks to mrp

3:49 am

sprite

hi scouser, yes, mrP tries to put them up when and if she can.

3:49 am

westford

I wish I had done the same sprite

3:50 am

scouser

Thanks mrp if you are there.

3:50 am

sprite

I can imagine, west. War in all its brutality and cruelty is pure horror. For me, it can never be amusement, and I don't need to be educated about it any more... I will promote peace.

3:51 am

westford

you'd think we would learn from our mistakes

3:52 am

westford

I don't even like the news anymore

3:53 am

sprite

yes, you'd think so :(
Se5 fighting and war are part of humanity. Children fight in play grounds. Grownups fight at home and at work. And countries fight wars.

3:53 am

westford

it's all about real estate

3:54 am

sprite

or about diverting attention from problems in the home country... power play...

3:54 am

westford

you said it

3:55 am

sprite

I cannot watch the news. I cannot become numb to the suffering, like many do. And I don't want to add more negativity to it either. So I try to solve things at home without fights... and send my prayers for those who suffer.

3:55 am

westford

has the movie downloaded yet sprite?

3:56 am

sprite

almost :) Something nice for tonight!

3:56 am

westford

that's what I was thinking

3:56 am

westford

good actors and happy mu5/16

3:56 am

sprite

*hugs west*

3:57 am

westford

hugs back sprite

3:58 am

sprite

ah thank you, hugs are good

3:58 am

westford

you bet..I can always use them

3:58 am

sprite

same here. Hugs are undervaluated! :) Though not on babble. Nor with my love.

3:59 am

westford

I have 2 minutes to get up to bed..don't want to repeat yesterday..when I finally got to sleep I slept the day away

3:59 am

westford

we are both lucky women

4:00 am

sprite

ifyou need it, it is the way to go, but I can imagine you don't want to sleep through the day.

4:00 am

westford

46 years and counting and he's the love of my life

4:00 am

sprite

yes we are :D

4:01 am

westford

good night sweet people and *poof*

4:01 am

sprite

oh west, that is wonderful. For us it is 17 years, 15 married. A long way to go to get where you two are, but I trust we will, if we will live that long.

4:01 am

sprite

good night west, sweet dreams

4:04 am

sprite

hey Beau, how are you today?

4:18 am

sprite

beau? Still there?

4:38 am

Sally-catlover

Good morning all.

4:38 am

sprite

morning Sally

4:38 am

Sally-catlover

Ooh, a big grid. Not sure I will have time to do this one.

4:39 am

sprite

oh that would be a shame, Sally, it is a good one!

4:39 am

Sally-catlover

However, you'll be pleased to know that I have started with 4 K words, Sprite :-)

4:39 am

sprite

woweeeee Sally!

4:40 am

Sally-catlover

I know how you love them so much.

4:40 am

sprite

I have to admit, today they were not hard.

4:42 am

dizgrannie

just try an s or gerund ending on all small words....LOL just found heaps of words ...

4:43 am

sprite

rewarding, isn't it Diz :)

4:43 am

sprite

sally, postcrossing is really going well. Even received another postcard. I like it so far :)

4:43 am

dizgrannie

LOL yep, Sprite

4:43 am

Sally-catlover

Oh great sprite, I'm so glad you like it.

4:44 am

sprite

I sure do. Thanks for the pointer :D

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

How many cards have you had so far?

4:48 am

sprite

two so far. One from Holland, one from the US

4:49 am

sprite

oh no, sorry, only one. From the US. The dutch one I sent myself.

4:49 am

Sally-catlover

I think it gets quicker the longer you are a member. The person who put me on to them sometimes gets 5 in a day!

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

lol, you aren't supposed to send them to yourself :-)

4:50 am

sprite

sounds like so much fun :D

Lol no, I sent it to another dutch gal.

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

:-) I knew that really.

4:51 am

sprite

I have just asked for a new addy, just picked out the card. It is lovely. I went crazy and ordered a lot of postcards. I don't even need to leave home to buy a card. Just to post them ;)

4:52 am

sprite

one person was so happy with his card, he will sent me one back, outside the system.

4:52 am

Sally-catlover

I have a little tin someone gave me where I keep a selection of cards and a few stamps. Here we have two levels of postage: Europe and not Europe, so I only need two values of stamp.

4:52 am

sprite

fireflies! Very ni4 grid today. Not bad for a biggie.

4:53 am

Sally-catlover

How nice someone will send one back. And congrats on the fireflies.

4:53 am

sprite

oh that is convenient. We have 3: national, europe and world.

4:54 am

Sally-catlover

Oh, sorry to mislead you. Of course we have a lower postage for UK, but I am not sending to UK.

4:54 am

Sally-catlover

But at one time it was different for each non-Europe country.

4:56 am

sprite

yes indeed. I sometimes have to check whether a country is considered Europe or World. It is not fully consistent.
You know what I like best? Picking out the best card for someone. Like now, someone likes cards of the ocean and card of children... I have a card of children playing on the beach.

4:57 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, I like that too. I had one person who wanted pictures of cheese (!) and I went to a local cheese shop in Ludlow and they had just such a card, all about cheese making.

4:57 am

sprite

oh perfect!

4:57 am

Sally-catlover

Each to his own :-)

4:58 am

sprite

hmz this lady says cards will reach her sooner and better if I write the address in russian. Lol!

4:59 am

Sally-catlover

Oh you can print the address right from the site, sprite, and I have done that with a Chinese one and stuck it on the card. In fact if you copy and paste you can put it right onto a sticky address lavel. Russian cards seem to take a long time.

5:01 am

sprite

oh I am crazy enough to try :)

5:01 am

Sally-catlover

With the Chinese one, I printed both addresses and stuck them on the card.

5:02 am

Sally-catlover

I mean both the Chinese characters and the Roman ones.

5:02 am

Sally-catlover

(I assumed it was the address and I hadn't ordered a take-away!)

5:02 am

sprite

hahahaha!

5:10 am

sprite

I think she should have supplied her addy in russian... in cyrillic anyway. It is pretty hard to guess what it should be.

5:11 am

Sally-catlover

Oh you mean she hadn't? That would be impossible.

5:11 am

Sally-catlover

As I said I was able to just copy and paste.

5:12 am

sprite

I wish. A bit silly, actually, to want it and not provide it.

5:13 am

Sally-catlover

Crazy. I haven't come across one of those. I had one where they actually asked for an envelope to ensure the card arrived - I think that was South America.

5:14 am

sprite

ah that I can understand. Well, found a site with a converter and now that site does not work... I think I will use the addy she gave... in roman :D

5:15 am

Sally-catlover

Do you have a Russian character set on your PC? You could always type it in that, but put it in the roman as well.

5:16 am

sprite

yeah I think I have. Well, we'll see if this will reach Belarus or not :D

5:28 am

sprite

ok done, I am off for today. *hugs for Sally*
Bye all, have a good day/night.

5:30 am

Sally-catlover

Bye sprite, only half way here.

5:37 am

Sally-catlover

Well, for anyone lurking I have 125 and will give it a break for now and come back later.

I'm a newie, and pretty rubbish at this! Been here 10 mins and only have 63...

top tips anyone?

6:04 am

keep at it, beth! it gets easier with time

6:05 am

kje

always look for -er, -ing, -est, -iest, -ies, and plural endings

6:05 am

Beth1

I hope so. Its a lovely principle, just poor in practice so far..

6:05 am

kje

and past tense too, but not i this one so much

6:05 am

Beth1

oh, cool, will do thank you

6:05 am

kje

do you know about the clues

6:06 am

Beth1

clues?

6:07 am

kje

when you get stuck and can't go further, there is a link under the grid called lickety's babble clues... gives first 2 letters, umber of letters, and poit value - ex: st8/45

6:08 am

Beth1

ooh, ok. Will wait til I'm completely out of ideas. Thanks for that.

6:08 am

Beth1

iest and est are proving useful already!

6:09 am

kje

if it hasn't been updated on a give day, just ask in the log if anyone else has posted a list and someone will direct you

6:10 am

kje

down to 64 and must get up and ready for the day.

6:10 am

I have 7yr old grandson with ADD or is ADHD - 1 hour with him is exhausting

10:43 am

vanillaslice

tried the high school hated it

10:43 am

vanillaslice

is he on retilin?

10:44 am

ursh

yes and at special ed school and doing quite well - started in in mainstream school and poor kid was miserable

10:44 am

vanillaslice

if he's properly diagnosed he should be on medication for all concerned

10:46 am

ursh

his meds are well controlled - wish his mom would control his diet as strictly - but lousy appetite and she feels just getting him to eat is enough effort

10:46 am

vanillaslice

had a boy in year 1 climbing the walls, hitting kids not learning, went on med and was a different boy all round, very intelligent and artistic

10:46 am

vanillaslice

diet is most important

10:47 am

vanillaslice

has he been tested for aspergers?

10:47 am

bichon

what kind of diet vanilla

10:49 am

vanillaslice

not an expert but the add doc will prescribe control sugar, salt, generally et what is healthy

10:49 am

lbdawger

caffine, sugars, carbs, b complex, can add to add adhd symptoms.

10:49 am

wvteach

with my son it was the red food colorings

10:50 am

bichon

Sugar was a theory here in the States, but I don't know if currently it is so

10:50 am

vanillaslice

they can test them for all kinds of allergies

10:51 am

vanillaslice

but we found the most important to be the medication, it is not aaddictive but effective

10:52 am

vanillaslice

we have a friend in his thirties, still on medication

10:52 am

I take Ritalin and i'm 65. It really help my focus and concentration

movieman

I was diagnosed with Asperger's at the age of 21, and it felt like a great weight had been lifted as far as my social and jobseeking problems were concerned

10:57 am

vanillaslice

sometimes if its mild aspergers they don't pick it up

10:58 am

bichon

there are several Asperger children in my granddaughter's pre-school

10:58 am

Kaplan the Magne

sk7/52 is a bogus plural.

10:58 am

vanillaslice

happens more often movieman good that its helping you now

10:59 am

movieman

I was unlucky in that Asperger's wasn't picked up as easily as it is today

11:00 am

movieman

Plus I was diagnosed by Simon Baron-Cohen, who happens to be Sacha's cousin

11:00 am

bichon

How can Aspergers be treated, if at all

11:03 am

crosshair

reading back ursh,my son has adhd and odd and he is 18 now and it has been a wild ride!

11:04 am

vanillaslice

was he diagnosed early crossy

11:05 am

crosshair

we went the whole route trying to get meds that would help him and not the school system

11:05 am

ursh

yup crossy - daughter is a single mom and sometimes the ride is certainly wild - but she does OK and is quite patient

11:05 am

crosshair

he was diagnosed at 4

11:05 am

Kaplan the Magne

It's a continuum disorder- as are most disorders.

11:06 am

vanillaslice

add is harder to detect

11:06 am

lbdawger

depends on the severity of the aspergers as to how to assist the person in life skills.

11:07 am

crosshair

ritalin is the worst for these children,we got him off of that as fast as possible and tried dexidrine,and now he is using adderal..problem with ritalin is it is all released at once and not time released and is hard on the appetite and the kidneys

11:07 am

lbdawger

add is very hard to diagnose. could be nature or nurture, could be 100 other things causing the distraction. anxiety, of any degree can set off the symptoms but not necessarily be the cause

11:08 am

bichon

Ritalin now can be prescribed as slow release. But it is not generic, therefore, a lot more costly

11:08 am

Kaplan the Magne

spectrum...continuum- depends where the clinician wants to draw the line. Baron-Cohen has an interesting scale to measure tendencies to what we now label as autistic. I came up a 7 out of a possible 29- my brother came up a 22. He doesn't officially have aspergers... See if you can find his scale by googling.

11:08 am

crosshair

can it? was not slow release back when he was first diagnose..nasty stuff

11:09 am

crosshair

lol the 30 tabs of adderal is 120 dollars

11:09 am

bichon

I haven't had a problem with it. I only take it in the morning and early afternoon. I can read during those hours

11:10 am

crosshair

but he is healthy now and growing like a week and can focus on tasks(but one at a time of course)

11:10 am

crosshair

weed

11:11 am

crosshair

some fine motor skill issues but he seems to be a savant in mechanics of all things

11:11 am

crosshair

the school put him in advanced classes for it this year

11:11 am

bichon

I'm glad it has worked out crossy.

11:11 am

crosshair

was a long grind,but he is finding his path in life

11:12 am

bichon

Lots of kids come to college with Adderal and share with their friends

11:13 am

vanillaslice

that started to happen at our school and from there the nurse gets all medication

11:14 am

bichon

Adderal is considered quite helpful at exam time

11:15 am

crosshair

we dispense his meds,he will not sell them on my watch

11:15 am

crosshair

anyways,store run,brb..poink!

11:16 am

I've made winter squash soup before. It's delicious. I'm jealous. I'm having yoghurt and some bread for lunch.

11:23 am

lbdawger

i already have the squash cooked so it's just puree-ing it and adding some stock. what do you put in yours ru?

11:23 am

bichon

I'll have to get some squash at the store

11:24 am

lbdawger

i need to keep the soup low fat for hubz diet, but also need something warm and comforting for a rainy day.

11:32 am

EvaNadine

lbd, i have a recipe somewhere for some. it is very simple, quite healthy, and totally tasty!

11:34 am

lbdawger

just looked up a few recipes, they look easy and i'm off to try my hand at one. bbl with the review.

11:34 am

EvaNadine

hrm. cant seem to find the recipe, but basically, chop up a bunch of butternut squash, carrots, onions, and apples. throw it in a pot with enough stock and water to cover the veggies (but no more than that).
boil for about 10-20 minutes (however long it takes for veggies to get tender) and then blend it all up.

11:35 am

EvaNadine

since your squash is already cooked, maybe leave it out and add it in when everything else is cooked up

11:35 am

vanillaslice

If we are to clip their claws I pay the vet $10 a cat. I like my hands

8:04 pm

Shirlockc

i wait until mine is half asleep and relaxed then get the claws

8:04 pm

herinfernallady

Lucius is too strong and Pandora I can do but it is easier for the vet.

8:05 pm

mab

this is their first clipping. went pretty well. with previous cats I would practically sit on them. This time I was very gentle.

8:05 pm

herinfernallady

I prefer to remain scratch free

8:05 pm

jmcnrick

my cat can keep her claws

8:05 pm

Eva

same here herin. only way we can control Merp is to hurt him and the whole thing becomes traumatic and bloody for all of us. At the vets he goes limp and it take 2 minutes. Go figure

8:06 pm

Eva

he is velcro cat right now

8:06 pm

herinfernallady

Clipping them doesn't hurt them. And they are inside cats. Eva how is merp

I do sometimes wish I had little Merplets, but could never justify bringing more kittens into the world when there are so many who need adoption

8:12 pm

crosshair

a tip for those who clip kittys claws at home..you know those big black metal clips you buy at office store that are used to hold 20 or more pages together?..you clip that to the cats scruff and they go lip with the momma carrying reflex and you can cut claws at your leisure

8:12 pm

herinfernallady

awwwww. Kittens are so cute but I am a sucker for the larger non baby kitty

8:12 pm

jmcnrick

i feel the same way about my cat--she is so wonderful i want to share her--but i had her fixed a long time ago and that was the right thing to do

8:13 pm

I can't believe that would work with Merp cross, but the image is funny enough that I just have to try it

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

8:17 pm

Eva

hi carlee. is it really the flu or some random virus?

8:18 pm

crosshair

poor carlee...a nice hot cup of hard cider for you with a cinnamon stick

8:18 pm

Scrabbler

Yuk, kat. A cold, the GI bug or real flu?

8:18 pm

Scrabbler

Are you getting a steroid shot, crossy?

8:18 pm

Eva

seems a bit early for the flu

8:18 pm

carleekat

well... sinus thing... sore throat... headache and i hurt ALL over and i have gone through 1 box of kleezex today from sneezing

8:18 pm

carleekat

9 sipping green tea...and am on cold fx )

8:19 pm

herinfernallady

Scrabbler one of our States has banned bunnies and ferrets.

8:19 pm

mab

sounds like flu to me

8:19 pm

Scrabbler

Did you just start?

8:19 pm

crosshair

seems i may be,thing is all crunchy and hot and swollen,says it is repetative motion caused

8:19 pm

stidgmere

Hello, just trying to find words while our dinner simmers. Sorry carlee is not up to tossing pompoms (not that I need them with a big 83 words.)

8:19 pm

Eva

not likely to be the fu. Flu usually doesn't have much in the way of nasal stuff-more dry cough and fever

8:19 pm

Scrabbler

Why, Herin? Because of myxo?

8:19 pm

Scrabbler

Hi stidgmere

8:19 pm

carleekat

yeap...woke up this am with it..took my 6 cold fx tabs today...

8:20 pm

Eva

still sounds utterly miserable.

8:20 pm

carleekat

i may not toss..i will wave tho

8:20 pm

crosshair

some mistyjack carlee?

8:20 pm

carleekat

its the sore body all over that is leading me to believe is flu

8:20 pm

carleekat

green tea... and halls vit c

8:20 pm

wht

a clue for the fe7 please.

8:21 pm

Scrabbler

Are those zinc tabs? I use those and Echinacea. You'll be better in a few days, sooner if you are lucky. Everyone up north here should take 5000 IU/day of vitamin D3!! Immune booster!

8:21 pm

crosshair

ahh the kind where you would not be suprised to fine that your eyelashes are bleeding as well

8:21 pm

stidgmere

Very wise adaptation, carlee. We are looking out of our window on the world and seeing very menacing clouds and the wind is rising. Good time for some of that cider you seem to be needing.

8:21 pm

herinfernallady

Yes Scrabbler because our domestic rabbits have an immunity

8:21 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Stidgmere. Is that your puppy?

8:21 pm

carleekat

no....is not zinc... is...hol don will get bottle

8:21 pm

herinfernallady

Hugs Carlee

8:22 pm

stidgmere

Yes, that is Murphy, who is really the ruler of our household. He is going to be a year old on Halloween!

8:22 pm

Eva

fresh ginger tea is wonderfully soothing carlee

8:23 pm

herinfernallady

Awwwww

8:23 pm

carleekat

each capsule is certified to contain 300 mg of CVT-E002 and proprietary chem bio print product containing more than 80% poly-furanosyl-pyranosyl-saccharides extracted from north american ginseng root

8:24 pm

crosshair

8:24 pm

stidgmere

Yes, we are lucky to have been selected by this puppy.

8:24 pm

herinfernallady

My neighbour just adopted a pure breed Boxer. 16 months old. Has nearly all of his tail

8:24 pm

carleekat

8:24 pm

crosshair

8:27 pm

Scrabbler

Crossy + Kat, I was in Niagara-n-the-Lake Tuesday. We kayaked a bit and walked around. It is such a beautiful place, with a very European feel.

8:27 pm

mab

i've known a few people who've had hydrocortisone injections to swollen joints and swear by them, crossy. it is a temporary solution however.

8:27 pm

carleekat

i just seems to work...

8:30 pm

herinfernallady

My neighbours went away this weekend. No puppy for me

8:30 pm

Scrabbler

Sounds wonderful, crossy!

8:31 pm

mab

crossy! sounds a bit improper.

8:31 pm

crosshair

we have a outdoors group that you can hook up with and plop your ride in the water and they show you all the best spots

8:31 pm

Scrabbler

4-4.5 hr drive for us, so closer than the Adirondack Mtns.

8:31 pm

crosshair

what is improper?

8:31 pm

mab

muskokas?

8:31 pm

Scrabbler

I'll do whatever crossy says.

8:31 pm

crosshair

why is that improper..it is a beautiful area

8:32 pm

carleekat

muskokas are an area ...

8:32 pm

mab

it's just that what you said is so foreign to me

8:32 pm

mab

yes?

8:32 pm

crosshair

it is where we(the vacation area people) go to vacation

8:32 pm

mab

like caves?

8:32 pm

carleekat

i grew up summering in the muskokas...a little place called Go Home bay ( off of go home lake and go home river)

8:33 pm

carleekat

no... a series of small islands ... if u have ever seen the artwork by the group of 7..the muskokas are featured

8:33 pm

herinfernallady

Slightly side topic. Who here remembers 80's dresses with poofy sleaves?

8:34 pm

Scrabbler

Lake Simcoe would be nice to paddle in too.

8:34 pm

mab

it does sound lovely. It's the sleeping outdoors that scares me to pieces.

8:34 pm

carleekat

shoulder pads.. high waisted slacks

8:34 pm

carleekat

sleeping outdoors is wonderful... sleep like a baby

8:34 pm

crosshair

poor mab..crossy would protect you

8:35 pm

mab

rabid wild animals.

8:35 pm

herinfernallady

Sans shoulderpads but they are back her. ERRK Outside = bugs. I do love the sound of camping though

8:35 pm

crosshair

as long as when you are in the algonquin park,you tie you food up in a tree,why the bears and the wolves pretty much leave you alone:))))

8:35 pm

carleekat

http://www.traveltomuskoka.com/

8:37 pm

crosshair

8:37 pm

8:37 pm

carleekat

mab

well that's a good one. must work into conversations.

8:53 pm

fe7?

8:54 pm

wht

Many years ago, some members of a fraternity at MIT were drinking and they took one of their members, a certain Fred Smoot, if I remember the first name correctly, and they picked him up and used him as a measuing rod to measure the bridge.

8:55 pm

wht

I think the bridge is something like 360 smoots and an ear.

8:55 pm

mab

ha ha - I love that!

8:56 pm

wht

Every year the fraternity goes out and repaint the lines on the bridge at every 10 smoots.

8:56 pm

BabbleRabble

8:56 pm
