12:40 am

negativeneil

River, I can't figure what the heck I did to deserve that? Seriously?

12:40 am

sammysmom

there once was a maid from madras- who had a magnificent ass- not rounded and pink - as you'd possibly think: - it was gray, had long ears , and ate grass.

12:40 am

Riverdance

what did you do?

12:40 am

Pinikula

cute, s'mom ;)

12:41 am

negativeneil

I've only been friendly and I committed the apparent sin of not saying "hi" soon enough yesterday, but I had someone talking to me on messenger, plus I was trying to do the grid... and I explained that and apologized. Not good enough, apparently.

12:41 am

sammysmom

calm down neil ,- we love you

12:42 am

Pinikula

I wouldn't worry about it too much, Neil...just breath and let it go :)

12:42 am

rururocks

12:42 am

Riverdance

Neil.....you have done nothing to offend me....I dont know what I said to think you did

12:42 am

negativeneil

Laura happened to write a very funny limerick to me and give it to me recently... really cracked me up. Had I known it would be taken this way I'd never have mentioned it. Sheeeeesh

12:42 am

sammysmom

of course our favorite was is still the one johnny carson used to refer to on the tonight show many years ago

12:42 am

negativeneil

1:10 am

sammysmom

there seems to be discord on the chog tonight and i don't know what to do about it

1:10 am

sammysmom

yes i do;.............. KNOCK IT OFF PEOPLE..... LIGHTEN UP DAMMIT

1:11 am

joey

I just got here from a baseball game. I obviously have missed something. I hope that it wasn't too bad. Was it a troll?

1:13 am

sammysmom

not sure joey i probably didn t understand the problem.. still don't seems like several people have gone for the night and not a a good frame of mind and that is what is upsetting

1:14 am

dizgrannie

apparently one Babbler doesn't like another Babblers comments....well thats what I could gather from reading things over a few days.

1:14 am

joey

I am sorry to hear that. I have noticed that there are a few people who seem to get into it and try to instigate trouble

1:17 am

bethn

there is nothing to be done smom, these clashes pop up from time to time. different personalities tend to dominate different times on the chat and each time ie morning afternoon late nite (for us yanks) havve different squabbles. it is why i mainly lurk now, dont like all the drama

1:17 am

bethn

fireworks for me - any clues needed before i go to bed?

1:18 am

joey

bethn, I agree. Life in general is so dramatic, don't need it here.

1:18 am

joey

I just started, wish I knew what I was missing.

1:19 am

bethn

it can be just a misunderstanding, hard to read intent in the written word without facial expression and tone of voice

1:19 am

bethn

ok then i am off to bed nite all - peace : )

1:20 am

sammysmom

nite beth

1:20 am

cybernan

9 to go, but too tired to find them tonight -- see you tomorrow

sammysmom

nite cyber

1:23 am

6:12 am

rubyfoo

it seems to be a "between time" for most

6:13 am

crosshair

good..we will not have to share the morning english muffins and champagne

6:13 am

rubyfoo

how3 are you feeling, as the days get rapidly shorter?

6:13 am

rubyfoo

after living all those years in Miami, the lengthening and shortening of the days is very dramatic here

6:14 am

crosshair

very short for us nos..only 7-8 c for the high and that cold fall rain,most of the leaves will be gone from the tree today as we had high winds last night

6:14 am

crosshair

snow is not far off i fear

6:15 am

rubyfoo

oh no! we get less and less snow every year, even though we're in the foothills of the Alps

6:15 am

rubyfoo

it is about 11F in the AM but goes up to 70F in the (sunny) afternoons. There are still roses and raspberries

6:15 am

crosshair

we get lots of lake effect snow now as we are right on a large body of water,but yes,snow is much less than i remember from my youth

6:16 am

rubyfoo

when we first moved hre, 14 years ago, there was a lot more snow.

6:16 am

rubyfoo

when we first moved hre, 14 years ago, there was a lot more snow.

6:16 am

rubyfoo

Last year, we had about 3 feet all at once in Dec, then no more for the rest of the warm dry winter

6:17 am

rubyfoo

(sorry for the repeat, twicthcy pinkie)

6:17 am

crosshair

in dec last year,we set a 2 week record and got 7 feet of snow in that time and the rest of the winter was not too bad

6:17 am

rubyfoo

and great spelling, to boot!

6:17 am

crosshair

if you ignore my spelling i shall do the same for you:)

6:17 am

rubyfoo

7 feet, OMG. I would have drowned!

6:18 am

rubyfoo

ty, cookie

6:18 am

crosshair

7 days of those 14,we could not leave the house

6:18 am

rubyfoo

actually, I could drown in less than 5 ft!

6:18 am

rubyfoo

we had a friend come and dig us out as we couldn't even get the mail

6:18 am

crosshair

lol,pocket sized arnt you? lol

6:19 am

rubyfoo

small pocket, lol

6:19 am

rubyfoo

I hate being this small; I used to be a woman of substance!

6:19 am

crosshair

6:20 am

rubyfoo

I'm trying, ate a big lunch!

6:20 am

crosshair

hehe,i think i could make 3 of you

6:21 am

crosshair

put you under one arm,your hubby under the other and carry you both around like sacks of taters

6:21 am

rubyfoo

but would the quality be diluted and I bet the 3 couldn't dance as well! hahah

6:22 am

crosshair

true,my dancing is not what it should be

6:22 am

rubyfoo

he is now 86 and is extremely frail. It is very sad to see him like this because at 60, hs was amazing!

6:23 am

crosshair

my father in law was the same,in his mid 70,s he was all of 120 pounds soaking wet

6:23 am

rubyfoo

my dancing is still OK but little old ladies boogying is not what anybody wants to see!

6:24 am

crosshair

not true,mother and father in law,gave us a dance sample of what they used to do in the 40,s and we sat there stunned..amazing dancing!

6:24 am

rubyfoo

if you want dancing (especially salsa lessons), come hereand visit. We may not hve great bacon, but we have the alltime best eggs!!!!

6:25 am

crosshair

they were both mid 60,s at the time,but still an eye popper

8:19 am

crosshair

it is not that difficult

8:19 am

uusue2

also, mrp is aware that we are collecting money for her (although I don't know if any has arrived yet) - you could ask her what the best way would be

8:19 am

periwinkle

MollyL

That's the 8 then past tense

9:40 am

uusue2

weird obsolete word, after you find it I've put a definition in the physics babblets in my profile

Kaplan the Magne

In appearance or acting ability or both?

12:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Anexoria and heroin chic just hadn't come into their own in the 50s.

12:57 pm

MollyL

Both. And I am so damn sick of celebrity women doing Marilyn look-a-likes.

12:58 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, me too- because none of them have the aura she had. And no one gets that.

12:58 pm

sadie52

i agree with you Molly gets old very fast

1:01 pm

MollyL

I refuse to even watch Gaga's lame attempt at Marilyn at the Clinton concert. I wish she would gogo away. She is so full of herself.

1:02 pm

sooooo

Marilyn had a childlike inocent but still sexey look to her that made her. They make her look like a slut.

1:02 pm

hootowl

afternoon - has anyone seen Footloose yet?

1:02 pm

MollyL

Nope Hoot and I'm not going to. I abhor re-makes.

Gee you sound like a lot of the people on-line. Did you see the dance they did on DWTS/

1:03 pm

hootowl

?

1:04 pm

I dont think i have seen many if any remakes that are actually good

1:04 pm

hootowl

I would hope it is still fun considering that blood & gore seem to rule he world nowadays.

1:06 pm

LeslieAnn

soooo that is an astute observation

1:07 pm

MollyL

Hoot, I don't watch Dancing With The Stars. I have a special affection for the original Footloose and I'm not interested in today's "kids" trying to top that.

1:07 pm

Judi

Hiya, Babblers!

1:08 pm

hootowl

ok - sorry I asked

1:09 pm

MollyL

It's okay Hoot. We don't all like the same things. I'm sure a lot of people will enjoy the new movie.

i know..16 psi right?

3:31 pm

crosshair

16 psi of downward force bacon gravity:)

3:33 pm

uusue2

psi is a pressure, which is force per unit area. So you exert more pressure if you stand on tiptoes (which is why spike heels can punch holes in wooden floors)

3:34 pm

crosshair

they do not have 4 inch heels in my size

3:34 pm

uusue2

but it is also true that you and Mrs. Crossy attract each other gravitationally - that attraction is very small compared to the other, though :-)

Minveryork

It's a fa4/8 that I have finished the puzzle so here is a story of clues.I've always loved flying on an ai8/60. When I was a a kid the Hawkins tr4/4 (dad, mom and myself) would fly to various places.I would always get on the plane with such ar 5/12.There would be other kids da4/8 enough to da4/5 around the plane driving everybody crazy,but not me. I did not put a fr4/11n on anybody's face. I was good at keeping myself busy while flying. Whether the plane was cr5/22ed or not, I was in my own little world on the airplane. The first thing I would do is pull down my tray & play a game of solitaire with my ca 5/14. Then when the stewardess came with the ca 4/5 I'd put my game away and wait for food. Once I was fa5/18 w/food, the stewardess would take my di 4/6 and I would do some arts and cr 5/18s on the plane.Then I would take out some di4/6 and play math games. Fortunately,it was not a dr4/7 for my parents to take me on trips. Dr4/5s! Husband is being an ar 4/4 and wants the computer. I'm going to give computer to him before he gets into a ra 4/6 and it causes a ri 4/7 between us.I'm going to go eat some ta 4/5 bell for dinner. I will return to this websi 4/4 later on tonight to help out with clues if needed.
