12:28 am

cosdem

12:28 am

negativeneil

It takes me much longer than "a few minutes" to finish a grid, Mary.

12:29 am

negativeneil

Except for that 26-word grid. Ok, that took about 5.

12:29 am

Riverdance

second thought...I will be paying for it today...lol

12:29 am

gapeach1066@yaho

Happy Birthday, ruru!!!!

12:29 am

12:30 am

12:30 am

negativeneil

Well what you don't finish now will still be here in the morning, River.

12:30 am

jillibus

ruru's real name is in the grid (as a b'day present?)

12:30 am

rururocks

thanks gapeach

12:30 am

negativeneil

Sure, cosdem. No rush... later tonight, tomorrow. whenever. Just wondered if you had seen it?

12:30 am

negativeneil

It is and I tried it, too.

12:30 am

cosdem

just now

12:30 am

negativeneil

Didn't work though. Neither does my name.

12:30 am

rururocks

almost jilli

12:31 am

rururocks

rupaul is almost in the grid too

12:31 am

m9f9l

oh ha ha.. I used to go to this little mexican bakery where I used to live.. they had very inexpensive fl4. I suppose that place could be called a fl8?!?!?

12:31 am

negativeneil

If my parents had spelled it with an "a" instead of an "e" it would... but don't think I'd like that for a name somehow.

12:31 am

negativeneil

Very funny Mary.

12:31 am

negativeneil

But yeah, why not, if it specializes in fl4s?

12:31 am

cosdem

ugh i cant fint he fl8

12:32 am

rururocks

they probably couldn't cut the custard m9

12:32 am

jillibus

some fl4s might lead to another fl4

12:32 am

m9f9l

ok.. apparently it's a french word. Why does it work in babble? Why THAT french word?

12:32 am

negativeneil

Are they that addictive?

12:32 am

m9f9l

or would that be mut the custard?

12:33 am

negativeneil

Well some French words do, because they've become part of everyday English language... which is why they also work in online Scrabble games, etc.

12:33 am

m9f9l

eggsactly ru.

12:33 am

Riverdance

got it.....whooohooooo...monkeys are strong

12:33 am

negativeneil

Even some of our Hebrew and Yiddish words do... a lot of them actually.

12:33 am

m9f9l

oh right. fl8 is SO common!lol

12:34 am

cosdem

ughhhh

12:34 am

cybernan

stats for the right r, please?

12:34 am

negativeneil

I didn't say it was, did I?

12:34 am

cosdem

oooh found it

12:35 am

negativeneil

I said "some French words do, because they've become part of everyday English language"... did I mention THAT French word there? No. :P

12:35 am

cosdem

nbt/nbs

12:35 am

m9f9l

no. I w.as finding it funny

12:35 am

m9f9l

But I sure do wonder why that french word there!LOL

12:36 am

jillibus

wtg cos

12:36 am

negativeneil

"She wore a raspberry be5,14... the kind you find in a second-hand store".

12:36 am

m9f9l

ha.. I just decided to try another french word and it worked too! me6

12:36 am

negativeneil

[plug your ears... the singing gene missed me]

12:36 am

cybernan

that fl might be common, but I sure don't see it

12:37 am

m9f9l

ooh.. I got an awesome teal green one in a second hand store someone recently!

12:37 am

jillibus

PB, m9!

12:37 am

m9f9l

oh .. pb for me!

12:37 am

rururocks

it all went to your brother neil..

12:37 am

m9f9l

but it IS just about my fave color!

12:37 am

negativeneil

Someone? Or somewhere?

12:37 am

negativeneil

Yep, ruru. And so did the looks... I just hope I got the brains, as I keep saying.

12:38 am

jillibus

so post it, m9 -- your fave colour is the theme

12:38 am

m9f9l

ha ha.. neither! somewhat!

12:38 am

rururocks

I think you got the smart-ass..lol

12:39 am

negativeneil

Oh well. At least I got something. And you're right ruru... my ass is a certified genius.

12:39 am

rururocks

ROFL

12:41 am

jillibus

boy, am I being ignored

12:41 am

negativeneil

My dad complains about it... then I ask him who's to blame for passing it on. He shuts up then.

12:41 am

negativeneil

Huh, jilli?

12:42 am

Riverdance

got to go to bed..head hanging low 141 am..yikes..half way anyway

12:42 am

rururocks

night river.. sleep well

12:42 am

negativeneil

I could say the same, I guess? Didn't see you even say hi to me, but didn't assume I was being ignored.

12:42 am

Riverdance

((Jilli))) wish I had the stamina to chat....

12:42 am

negativeneil

People do get busy on here, doing the grid.

12:43 am

12:57 am

m9f9l

I don't even see her much on the social radar anymore. but then I don't have t.v. Is she still in the public eye much?

12:57 am

jillibus

12:58 am

negativeneil

Hi dart.

Trust me on that.

12:59 am

jillibus

supercongratulations, s'mom -- what a great tribute, so well deserved.

12:59 am

rururocks

*giggle*

12:59 am

jillibus

You can say Neazle, though...

1:00 am

Jellen

Hey, did someone say my name?

1:00 am

negativeneil

Ugh. :P No, only Laura gets away with that, so far. And that's only because she's in Mariposa. My brother thinks it's funny to call me that... or he did, until he did it in person and I hit him.

1:00 am

sammysmom

HeWho fielded the question for me. "Well you know how most of those superheroes have very respectable day jobs.. newspaper reported, scientist, tycoon?

University degrees go in grades. A First is the best, a 2:1 is next best, and a 2:2 means you just scraped an Honours degree.

10:53 am

Roxbi

French, Spanish and Italian. Hard work!

10:54 am

hydra

It's probably the same here, Molly. I boycotted one of my papers as I had a row with the lecturer so that didn't help.

10:54 am

Deeha

All that way and all those languages - and you arent learning Welsh!!

10:54 am

hydra

Oh yes, you said that in your profile, Roxbi. Sorry! I did English and French.

10:56 am

Roxbi

hydra

Must pop out again. See you later, folks.

I spent a lot of time in N Wales when I was littlre. My mother died when my twin and I were7 and my sister lived in |Portmadoc so we were sent there all every summer hioliday. My brother in law went to Bangor Uni ( before the war!!)

11:03 am

Roxbi

It must have been a nice place to spend your summers, I think I've been to Portmadog a couple of times.

11:04 am

Roxbi

It's near to Portmeirion, which is where The Prisoner (?) was filmed, and my mum insists on us going there when she visits me, haha. There is a nice beach there, actually

11:05 am

Deeha

It was. If you go again go for a ride on the little railway - it is a lovely trip. And Portmadoc hasnt really changed that much in60 years - tho I suppose you could say that about a lot of Wales!!!

11:05 am

2:03 pm

flosey

afraid it'll take a while the air out the house - catches in the throat

2:03 pm

flosey

2:04 pm

jesdraggon

2:15 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i have been refusing to pick people up at the airport due to the shoe thing, and all the other crap besides

2:16 pm

jesdraggon

just meet them at the baggage claim, so much easier

2:17 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

no, not allowed to do that either. bastards!

2:18 pm

jesdraggon

what? what airport are you going to that won't let you meet someone at baggage claim? that's ridiculous.

2:19 pm

hego

Hi Flo

2:19 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

well, yes, you can meet them at baggage, but you can't do it with car. you must park in pay lot, and pay, and on top of that, it takes you 15 minutes to find your way out of the lot, and they charge you my the 15-min intervals!

2:20 pm

jillibus

hello briefly -- nice to see you, flosey!

2:20 pm

jesdraggon

oh, well, that's just business as usual, gwen... airport parking is a long-term, notorious evil.

2:20 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

then there's the shoe thing. i was picking up wheelchair person, had to take off my shoes to pick him up! so i say fuck 'em all

2:20 pm

jesdraggon

hi jilli

2:20 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

no, it is not business as usual, it is 9/11 terrorism BS

2:21 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

and i mean US terrorism against US people in airports

2:21 pm

2:21 pm

jillibus

hello hego -- pretty flower

2:23 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

used to be able to pick up a person at baggage by standing in the standing lane right outside baggage claim. now there are sheriff's deputies who will ticket you if you do that. i just don't pick people up there anymmore, and that's final

2:23 pm

hego

ty...blush

2:24 pm

jesdraggon

oh, they don't do that at spokane, gwen. i think that's a regional thing.

2:24 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

once i tried circling, which i had pre-arranged with the person who i was picking up, and i circled for 3 hours and never found him

2:24 pm

jillibus

that's outrageous, gwen!

2:24 pm

hego

You're right Gwen, you must park or keep circling till they come out.

2:24 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yes, i'm speaking of Detroit Metro, and not any other airport

2:25 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hardly done any flying in my life, but one trip i did go to spokane!

2:26 pm

jesdraggon

Spokane actually has a section of me5'd parking right across from the doors, so you don't have to pay the weekend rate and catch the bus to pick someone up.

2:26 pm

jesdraggon

and you didn't stop to see me, gwen!? *sadness*

2:26 pm

hego

Seatac is a great airport

2:36 pm

jesdraggon

what do you do in spokane?

2:36 pm

hego

I like to fly into Milan

I was concerned about all of that peri, unfortunately didn't have time to do anything before I flew here

3:12 pm

Soodle

LesleyAnn, my brother went to Chicago this summer. He thought it was absolutely beautiful. I have put it on my list of places to visit.

3:12 pm

LeslieAnn

it is pretty impressive! :)

3:14 pm

Soodle

I've been to New York, Vegas, SF and Florida. Chicago is definitely next......

3:20 pm

MollyL

Seems a lot of Babblers are quite the travelers.

3:26 pm

hego

I think she has the money already.

3:26 pm

hego

There was a thank you on FB last week.

3:27 pm

hego

Chicago is great!

MollyL

I think I'll check out of this conversation now.

hego

Bye Molly

3:32 pm

Oh, list already.

3:34 pm

hego

make your life easy.

3:35 pm

Soodle

Yay! thank you Hego. I needed that :-)

3:35 pm

hego

3:46 pm

Soodle

Sheesh... the list makes things so much easier.

3:47 pm

hego

SEE!!

3:48 pm

Soodle

<------ smelling like a damp fish! LOL

3:48 pm

hego

don't ask!

3:49 pm

Soodle

Clattering self around the head with fish. Nothing more sinister, Honest!!

3:50 pm

hego

yes, the list will do that to you

3:51 pm

hego

why didn't I see that one? Or that one?

3:51 pm

Soodle

Cos I'm thick, thats why!! How is life with you, Hego?

3:52 pm

hego

Pretty good Soodle. How's Ireland.

3:52 pm

Soodle

Damp!!

3:53 pm

hego

Of course!

3:53 pm

hego

Silly me

3:53 pm

Soodle

The season of mellow fruitfulness has been a washout. But, thats pretty much par for the course here... :-(

3:54 pm

hego

Actually, it's been like that here also.

3:55 pm

Soodle

But, I'm abandoning the wind and rain and dampness for two weeks of sun next month... Myself and my mother are heading to the Canary Island of Lanzarote (off the coast of Africa) in early November.

3:56 pm

hego

Very nice

3:57 pm

LeslieAnn

ohhh sounds lovely. take some pics for us!

3:57 pm

hego

I will be here for the duration.

3:57 pm

hego

Oh well, maybe in the spring.

3:57 pm

hego

Hi Leslie

3:58 pm

Soodle

Hmm. Poison chalice, really. My Mom is 80, and pretty high maintenance. she is also very doddery, so I will be on duty 24/7. But at least i will be doing it in the sun!!

3:59 pm

hego

Hang in there Soodle

4:00 pm

hego

the aging mom thing is way harder than the kids thing.

4:01 pm

Soodle

(((Hego))). I am very lucky to still have my Mom, so a couple of weeks in her company is to be valued! I'm just terrified that something will go wrong, and I will be held responsible.

4:02 pm

hego

Crikey! I AM the aging mom now!!

4:02 pm

hego

Just realized. lol

4:03 pm

Soodle

LOL LOL!! I use the 'ageing mom' thing as a threat to my kids!!

4:03 pm

hego

: )

4:03 pm

sammysmom

.

4:03 pm

hego

I let my kids off the hook.

4:04 pm

hego

I married a younger ma. lol

4:04 pm

hego

uh, man

4:04 pm

hego

uh, man

4:04 pm

Soodle

Me too, but the threat sometimes works ;-)

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

unfriendly grid.

4:05 pm

Soodle

Good for you, Hego. They say 'Your as young as the man your feeling...'

4:05 pm

hego

But I think he's in worse shape than I am. lol

4:05 pm

Soodle

Hello Kap.

4:05 pm

hego

Love it Soodle

4:06 pm

Soodle

:-)

4:06 pm

hego

Hi Kap

4:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hello. Aging mom thing- either way it's hard. The only way to avoid it is to lose your mom relatively young (as I did). Tough either way.

4:08 pm

hego

Right Kap

4:08 pm

Soodle

I have the best of both worlds. I AM an aging Mom and I have an aging Mom. (No wonder I am the way I am )

4:09 pm

hego

My mom lived to 92

4:10 pm

hego

She's only been gone 5 years

4:12 pm

Soodle

What a great age, Hego. I bet you still miss her.

4:12 pm

hego

Oh, yes Soodle

4:12 pm

Soodle

Kap, how old were you when your Mom passed away?

4:13 pm

hego

The last few were tough, buy I think of her every day, for sure.

4:14 pm

Soodle

((((Hego)))) ((((Kap))))

4:18 pm

Soodle

Hello Sue :-)

4:18 pm

hego

Oh, sorry Sue

4:18 pm

uusue2

4:18 pm

uusue2

hi, soodle!

4:18 pm

hego

sounds familiar

4:20 pm

4:36 pm

Soodle

Doh, Kap, now we are going to have to hug all over again!!! ((((Hug)))))

4:36 pm

hego

by 3 people

4:36 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I was 28 when my mom died at 60, but she had health problems for many years.

4:36 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I am not really a hugger. Can I blow a kiss?

4:36 pm

hego

((((HUG))))

4:36 pm

4:37 pm

Soodle

I have a warm glow :-)

4:37 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I kiss on the hand may be quite Continental

4:37 pm

Kaplan the Magne

A kiss.

4:38 pm

Kaplan the Magne

A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental

uusue2

Incidentally I just found out that I won second prize in a raffle (from a window-treatment store at a home show) - a $100 gift certificate!

4:39 pm

hego

bring on the diamonds!

4:39 pm

uusue2

I suspect that it's for $100 off their overpriced blinds or curtains, but if not then I am happy :-)

4:39 pm

Soodle

Oh how delightful, Sue!

4:39 pm

hego

yay a prize!

4:39 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Men grow cold as girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square cut or pear shape these rocks don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend

4:40 pm

uusue2

they're supposed to mail it to me, so I'll let you know if it's a real gift certificate

4:40 pm

Soodle

Diah-monds are a gal's best friend!

4:40 pm

hego

I love when Kap sings!

4:40 pm

hego

We did Fiddler during the Jewish holidays

4:41 pm

uusue2

this is a big show where all kinds of businesses related to home improvements come and showcase their stuff - I've actually won a couple of real prizes there (as opposed to dollars off their products) - a gift basket once, and a DVD player another time

4:42 pm

uusue2

and I would chime in but unfortunately all I know of Diamonds are a girl's best friend is the title...

4:42 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Marilyn Monroe wasn't in Fiddler on the Roof.

4:42 pm

Soodle

Up-dating my IPod as I babble.... Diamonds are a ... is one that I forgot about. Being downloaded right now!

4:43 pm

hego

No she wouldn't have blended

4:43 pm

hego

hey you just gave Soodle a song

4:44 pm

uusue2

does anyone else watch NCIS? there was one show where Abby (the goth genius in the lab) dressed up as Marilyn Monroe - it was very impressive!

4:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

There may come a time
When a lass needs a lawyer,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

There may come a time
When a hard-boiled employer
Thinks you're awful nice,
But get that ice or else no dice.

He's your guy
When stocks are high,
But beware when they start to descend.

It's then that those louses
Go back to their spouses.
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

I've heard of affairs
That are strictly platonic,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

And I think affairs
That you must keep liaisonic
Are better bets
If little pets get big baguettes.

Time rolls on,
And youth is gone,
And you can't straighten up when you bend.

But stiff back
Or stiff knees,
You stand straight at Tiffany's.

Diamonds! Diamonds!
I don't mean rhinestones!
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

4:44 pm

hego

I think I saw that

4:45 pm

hego

Kap is good.

4:45 pm

hego

She must hate this grid. lol

4:45 pm

she is indeed! Now I have no excuse for not knowing the words :-)

4:45 pm

I saw that one. Halloween costume.

4:46 pm

4:47 pm

Soodle

marilyn all the way!

4:47 pm

uusue2

me too, rasta! although I am not in exactly the same kind of lab.

4:47 pm

Kaplan the Magne

rent the movie. It has some great production numbers. Including Jane Russell and some boy-toy athlete dancers in the gayest scene ever-

4:48 pm

uusue2

I'll bet my son can stream it from Netflix (which I am paying for anyway, so he owes me!)

4:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I used to tell Nancy Boy to see it. It's Jane Russell singing "Ain't there anyone herefor love?"

4:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I'm gonna look on you-tube

But not great

4:55 pm

4:55 pm

stidmama

oh well, I'll just go for halfway as usual then, thanks.

4:55 pm

The Irish lass will have to go to confession after watching that debauchery :-P

4:55 pm

YAY!!!

4:56 pm

Soodle

Yay for Stidkid!!!!

4:56 pm

Oh no! Off I go for the smelling salts again....

4:58 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It's such a great turnaround on the half-naked chorus girl thing- very subversive. People see routines like that all the time with women dancers, and it's just routine.

4:58 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It beats anything on VH1.

4:59 pm

uusue2

yes, I like seeing the men do moves that are usually done by women - quite the turnaround! :-)

5:00 pm

stidmama

that's the funniest video...

5:00 pm

hego

just watched. so campy

5:00 pm

uusue2

the women looking on are a nice touch too.

5:00 pm

hego

gotta love it

5:00 pm

hego

Kap is a font of show biz knowledge

5:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I think so too, stid. It cracks me up every time.

5:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I just put it on my Facebook page.

5:02 pm

stidmama

e in the middle row please? trying for NBT

5:03 pm

stidmama

I think, however, that they missed a bet not having shimmery sparkly spangly things on the mens' shorts...

5:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

volcano. I forgot there is a grid here

5:03 pm

uusue2

volcano, stid

5:03 pm

5:31 pm

periwinkle

uusue, have you thought of getting a prepaid Visa Travel Money Card for your trip

5:32 pm

uusue2

I have, peri, but don't see how that would be better than using my regular visa card

5:32 pm

periwinkle

ok, I think it can be used like travelers checks in the past

5:32 pm

periwinkle

just it is a card and not checks

5:33 pm

periwinkle

just a thought

5:33 pm

uusue2

thanks, peri, I will look into it!

5:33 pm

periwinkle

they have them at AAA and of course Visa

5:34 pm

uusue2

I have AAA so I will check with them; maybe my credit union has them too

5:34 pm

periwinkle

I am stuck and not able to use Babble Expert and am bummed

5:34 pm

uusue2

would want someplace where I could get it without fees

5:34 pm

uusue2

that is a bummer, peri!

5:34 pm

uusue2

haven't tried expert for a while, I never have time to finish any more anyway

5:35 pm

periwinkle

can you get anything without fees these days?

5:35 pm

uusue2

maybe from AAA, or from the credit union (probably not, though)

5:35 pm

periwinkle

I always finish and want to finish this one, will plodd along

5:37 pm

uusue2

and there would be exchange fees as well, unless I could get one that was already in shekels

5:37 pm

uusue2

ok I am cold and hungry, am going to put on a sweater and have a snack. bbl! good luck with the grid, peri!

6:31 pm

uusue2

you can download the zip file from the link in my profile, peri, and reinstall it (probably you should uninstall it first)

6:31 pm

uusue2

or if you still have the zip file you can uninstall it and reinstall it without having to download the zip file again

6:31 pm

ChrissieDee
