2:43 am

grannyrose

and you?

2:44 am

lynxxx

I'm very very well.

2:46 am

grannyrose

yay, lyn....i'm about 75% thru a bottle of brown brothers lexia...don't care who killed the cat....sleep is a wonderful thing, and i've had lots of it over the last few nights

2:47 am

lynxxx

are you serious about the cat?!

2:47 am

grannyrose

AND...........tomorrow i am 13 weeks without a cigarette!!!!!!!!

2:48 am

grannyrose

well....don't have a cat at the mo'....himself is allergic to the dander

2:48 am

lynxxx

very well done!!! no going back now....are you still dieting too?

2:50 am

grannyrose

that's starts tomorrow, whenever that is *grin*...off the champix for 2 weeks now....have to arrange a visit to my gp, see what he has to say about helping me wi4 the weight problem....mind you, i lost 10 kg due to the nausea from the champix

2:51 am

lynxxx

what do you think the GP will suggest?

2:52 am

grannyrose

*shrug* not sure, but he did say that WE would work together re my weight...suggests to me he has something in mind

2:53 am

lynxxx

Mine just says lose some weight - not exactly helpful. Bring back the 'diet pills' I say!

2:53 am

grannyrose

maybe i can convince a dentist to wire my teeth together....hmmmm...how do you vitamise a mars bar?

2:54 am

lynxxx

My daughter did the hypnosis/lapband operation thing yesterday...will be interesting to see if it has any effect

2:54 am

Ouwachita

why isn't "yoyo" a word?

2:54 am

lynxxx

because dieting isn't in the grid

2:54 am

grannyrose

ouweachita.....should be by my account, but it ain't....enable can be very me4

2:56 am

grannyrose

lyn did you see the article on 'current affair' ? about the guy who was hypnotised into thinking he had lap band surgery?

2:56 am

lynxxx

That is what my daughter did yesterday - but no, I didn't see that article/program

2:57 am

lynxxx

did it work for him?

2:57 am

grannyrose

*sigh* looked very interesting, but was working....do so hope it works for your daughter. does she have much to lose?

2:58 am

grannyrose

yes, lyn, apparently he lost 70kg? i think

2:58 am

lynxxx

She has a LOT to lose.

2:59 am

grannyrose

hopes and prayers for lyn's daughter....just let it work, Lord

2:59 am

3:55 am

debjed

3:55 am

sprite

oh please bring me a cuppa!

3:56 am

debjed

I would love that. I usually drink wiener melange instant anyway, lol.

3:57 am

debjed

I might lol if I knew what that was :)

3:58 am

3:59 am

debjed

lol

3:59 am

debjed

4:00 am

sprite

I can drive my son crazy with remarks like that, and of course he has hundreds of them, as a true blue teenager.

4:01 am

debjed

A young co-worker of mine asked "what are you up to, Debbie?" I answered 5'3" - he didn't get it - hee hee

4:02 am

sprite

roflollllll. My son said: 'wazzup' and I said nothing much except my blood pressure. He groaned.

4:02 am

debjed

:) :)

4:03 am

debjed

I love silliness like that

4:04 am

sprite

so do I. And so does my husband. The kids hate us sometimes, lol.

4:05 am

debjed

I picked up old phrases that my 85 year old mom says like "heavens to betsy" people ask where that came from and what does it mean...... I have no idea :)

4:06 am

sprite

the other r from the 2nd row is another ry4.

4:06 am

debjed

yayayayayay I got it - ty!!

4:07 am

sprite

lollll I love it. The fun thing is, usually when you use a phrase like that, the meaning will be clear from the context.

4:08 am

sprite

yvw :)

4:10 am

sprite

halfway, and slowing down.

4:10 am

debjed

just googled the origin of "heavens to betsy" - it said the origin was completely unsolvable

4:10 am

sprite

oh wonderful :D

4:11 am

debjed

4:31 am

sprite

we do animals today, ruby... I have this sweet little kitten

4:31 am

rubyfoo

4:31 am

sprite

it starts Wa, deb

4:32 am

sprite

must be pretty there, ruby

4:33 am

carleekat

<----- waking up

4:33 am

rubyfoo

they really do lovely things but I don't understand why they don't just plant the chrysanthtemums instead of buying new pots every year.....

4:34 am

rubyfoo

I wanted to walk down there yesterday, but lacked the energy, even tho it's not far

4:34 am

rubyfoo

<-- sending rRuby to woof carlee up!

4:34 am

sprite

I was up at 5am. But am not complaining, because I totally crashed yesterday afternoon, went to bed, slept till supper, went back to bed and slept till 5.

4:34 am

sprite

they would need a lot of watering through summer, ruby. That might be the reason?

4:35 am

carleekat

i crashed early too ( 10 ) was a busy day... its 5:30 am here now... i have a long morning at work then school...staying in london..hoping i have my 2 deferred date tomorrow evening..but i lso start tutoring tomorrow too

4:36 am

debjed

thank you sprite!! got that 8 :)

4:36 am

sprite

wtg deb!

4:36 am

sprite

busy schedule, carlee

4:36 am

rubyfoo

we didn't have to water the flowers even once this summer, except for the baby lila

4:36 am

carleekat

woot deb

4:37 am

rubyfoo

lilac* the rain seemed to come just often enough but maybe the cemetery is too limited

4:37 am

carleekat

well..i opted for tutoring ...1 b/c going into teaching and 2 i have 6 1/2 hours to fill

4:37 am

sprite

lol... yeah ok, this summer. Which summer? Oh the one last month :D

4:37 am

rubyfoo

we were very lucky with the weather. Our punishment will probably be a long, cold, wet winter....

4:38 am

debjed

well friends, 88 left. I better get to the gym. Thank you for the company and the help - be back soon

4:38 am

sprite

I opt for a very cold, freezing winter with lots of sun.

4:38 am

rubyfoo

bye deb, have a great workout!!!!

4:38 am

sprite

bye deb, have a grand day :)

4:38 am

rubyfoo

I'd like a repeat of last year -- all the snow in Dec and then warm, sunny and dry

4:39 am

rubyfoo

Makes these old bones feel better

4:39 am

sprite

my bones don't mind freezing temps, but they hate the wet.

4:43 am

sprite

as for snow... I love it, at Christmas or on New Year's Day. When nobody needs to travel. For the rest... nah. Overrated.

4:45 am

rubyfoo

although I love the snow, it is a major inconvenience as we live on a hillside and it becomes virtually inaccessible

4:47 am

sprite

yes, I can imagine. I will hope then that no snow will visit you this year.

4:48 am

rubyfoo

we were only snowed in for 2 days last year, so I shouldn't complain, especially considering what went on in the US!

4:48 am

sprite

indeed. We had a lot of snow last year too. But then, we are used to it.

4:50 am

rubyfoo

when we first came here (OMG, almost 15 yrs ago), there was much more snow

4:50 am

sprite

it seems global warming is local ;)

4:51 am

rubyfoo

I think what's scary is the widespread "odd" weather

4:51 am

rubyfoo

too much here, not enough there, etc

4:52 am

sprite

but that is from all times too. It's just that you hear more about it nowadays.

4:52 am

rubyfoo

maybe, but the amount of snow and wind, etc, in NY was really strange. My poor sister!

4:53 am

sprite

yes, weather has been odd there

4:57 am

sprite

I must say, we have had 2 lovely days. Coldish, but sunny and clear. This morning we are deep in the mist. We couldn't see the other side of the street early this morning.

4:59 am

rubyfoo

my head is deep in the mist, but more than half without nbt. see you later (in lex, cass, I hope)

4:59 am

rubyfoo

*poof*

4:59 am

sprite

would be nice :) Have a grand day, ruby, and see you later.

Quite the entrance and good day to you too, Scrabbs...LOL

6:09 am

How was your hike with your sister?

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Sorry, Annie. That was not the best word to accidentally put in the chat. But it sure is making me laugh.

6:10 am

Anniebrook

It made me laugh also

6:10 am

Scrabbler

We had a wonderful hike in the Erie County Forest. There was still some snow deep in the woods. It had snowed last Thursday. I work this morning then she + I will hike again. Tomorrow she leaves.

6:10 am

Anniebrook

It sounds like a great visit

6:11 am

Scrabbler

We have fun--Scrabble, hiking and lots of laughing--when we are together.

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Good morning Bobby! What sport do you follow when baseball is done? Hockey?

6:17 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, Bobby is shaving. I went into the bathroom and asked him and he said college and professional football. He says "hi"

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Does he have favorite teams? My father went to Purdue, my mother to Syracuse. And in the NFL I root for our Buffalo Bills.

6:19 am

Anniebrook

The Jets, that even I know (myself not a football fan)

6:22 am

Anniebrook

In baseball he loves the Mets and he like Boston. I cannot believe him because I am a devout Yankee fan. We have a New Years party every year and he always get a gift. This year he asked for a Youkilis T shirt. Can you imagine wearing that in a New York household. I shudder.

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Haha.

6:27 am

Scrabbler

118 to go. I must get ready for work. Enjoy the day!

6:27 am

8:08 am

pigeonman

wow. thanks ouwa.

8:09 am

mrpresident

pigeon didn't like my clue?? thanks man!! :)

8:10 am

pigeonman

sorry. didn't see it.

8:10 am

mrpresident

i worked tonight... 3 hours of reffing... and had to red card two players in girls comp.... i was so upset about it!!

8:10 am

pigeonman

they have put the y's to good use in this grid

8:13 am

mrpresident

but I don't make the rules, I just enforce them... both girls (from different teams) handballed in the penalty box during a goal scoring opportunity... I really don't like to red card for that... but it is the rules.

The girls cry when they get red cards.

The men just yell and throw their handbags.

8:14 am

mrpresident

and last night, I had to sinbin a couple of team mates from the SAME team for fighting!! holy moly!! they need to readdress their team dynamics!

8:17 am

pigeonman

what's sinbin

8:17 am

pigeonman

?

8:18 am

mrpresident

in summer football... we play small fields in darn hot conditions at night... so only 5 players on the field. Because of the heat... it was decided that people can get 'heated' and the sinbin was created as a way to 'cool off'.

8:19 am

pigeonman

oh.like a penalty box in hockey?

8:20 am

mrpresident

if players get cranky and carry on and it isn't quite a yellow card, I can put them in the 'Sin Bin' for a period of up to 2 to 5 minutes... helps them cool their heals and come back with a 'nicer' persona... rather than anger them further with an official caution. If they do it again, they are off!

8:21 am

pigeonman

i had to laugh. sounds like putting children in a time out.

8:21 am

mrpresident

indeed pigeon... I sent two players off from both teams yesterday for being arses and they came back on nice as pie!!

8:21 am

mrpresident

it is!! these guys were 40 years old!!! LOL

8:22 am

pigeonman

we should be able to do the same to our political leaders. (don't want to start a political discussion though)

8:22 am

Anniebrook

Done. Nice grid. anyone like a clue before i leave?

8:23 am

bethanyej

how is yoyo not a word?

8:23 am

Anniebrook

I was wondering that myself, beth

8:23 am

mrpresident

if I caution a player officially with a card, it is because it is deserved... but being hot and bothered is really due to the conditions of our summer, so they get 'discretion' from me.

8:24 am

Anniebrook

have a great day/night everyone, bye dear babblers

8:24 am

mrpresident

and if the 12 year olds do something that is 'red card' worthy, I sin bin them for 5 minutes and let them back on... I am not a biyaitch!

8:24 am

mrpresident

night annie!! :))

8:26 am

mrpresident

yoyo is a brand!! i thought it would have been introduced into English myself!

8:26 am

mrpresident

and yo-yo is the official way of spelling too

8:29 am

mrpresident

but, what do I know... I am chatting football, watching football, breathing football, and trying to overcome my horrid day. blessed be anyway

8:29 am

pigeonman

if yo-yo is just the brand name, then what are those little buggers called?

8:30 am

mrpresident

will go look it up pigeon... brb

8:31 am

Vicuna

(They're called yo-yos. The brand name has passed into the generic word. But it's spelt with hyphen.)

8:32 am

mrpresident

ball bearing axle with a string!

8:32 am

mrpresident

still it has a hyphen so is not considered in babble

8:33 am

mrpresident

as vicuna said :)

8:33 am

mrpresident

Did the nsg home really let him do that?

9:32 am

hego

Hi Ruby and Bichon

9:50 am

9:50 am

It was hellish. But, lots of folks have it much worse

9:51 am

hego

Give Ruby pie!!

9:51 am

rururocks

jeez bichon.. i know dorens power has been out too

9:51 am

rubyfoo

<-- doesn't want snow!

9:51 am

crosshair

we use cable internet as the 3/4 G is waaay too expensive here

9:52 am

bichon

Fortunately it wasn't bitterly cold. We camped in our kitchen with the fireplace going

9:52 am

Riverdance

I was asking about you bichon yesterday if anyone had heard from you

9:52 am

Riverdance

we were lucky - power only out 18 hours but did get 23 inches of snow

9:52 am

flosey

when power goes off here (usually due to high winds, occasional snow storm) I love the silence, it's almost eerie. But, if it stays off too long, we do have generator that hooks up essentials

9:53 am

rururocks

it got much colder here yesterday.. it dropped from 78 to 72

9:53 am

crosshair

that remindscrossy to digout the "seeners" andclean and fill them and have themin place

9:53 am

rubyfoo

you New Englanders have certainly had a miserable year of weather!!!

9:53 am

bichon

we didn't get much snow, but as the leaves were still on the trees, they knocked down the power lines. Some towns are totally without power and will be for a week.

9:53 am

flosey

ah, poor ru, chilling out?

9:53 am

bichon

Some towns have trees and live wires blocking roads.

9:53 am

Riverdance

we still have alot of folks in my state without power too

9:54 am

rubyfoo

we get power outages (many short ones) for no apparent reason

9:54 am

rubyfoo

wires are below ground

9:54 am

bichon

Some places won't have school all week. We have no phone so I am here at Wesleyan's library for the day.

9:54 am

flosey

what a mess bichon, sounds like it will take a few days to clean up

9:54 am

hego

we also have wires below ground.

9:54 am

rubyfoo

when we were re-modeling the house, especially the kitchen, a French friend said that I must get gas for the stove top. Was she ever right!

9:55 am

hego

Has to be big to knock us out.

9:55 am

bichon

Our community's wires are below ground, but that doesn't really mean anything if the wires which come here are above ground

9:55 am

rubyfoo

aaah, didn't think of that

9:55 am

bichon

We were so bored, we played Boggle

9:55 am

crosshair

crossy misses hisoldgas range!!!

9:55 am

bichon

I have gotten much better at it now that I play Babble

9:56 am

rubyfoo

here it's annoying because phone and everything else is electric (except the burners lol)

9:56 am

hego

<....Got to have a gas range.

9:56 am

rubyfoo

I prefer gas oven, too, but am afraid of them, so put in electric

9:56 am

Riverdance

I wish we had gas too

9:56 am

crosshair

nothing like cooking on a proper flame

9:56 am

bichon

we used our camp stove out in the garage

9:57 am

rubyfoo

many people here have those glass stove tops

9:57 am

rubyfoo

I like having a flame for things like roasting peppers or sauteing things quickly

9:57 am

Riverdance

Ritalin does have it's side affects. BP goes up a bit. And, can't take it too close to bed time

10:03 am

ritalin is horrid stuff,you are better off with dexadrine or adderal

10:03 am

i'll stick with the wellbutrin and xanax, thank you

10:04 am

bichon

My doctor doesn't think that way.

10:04 am

crosshair

welbutrin alsohas it bad side

10:05 am

iusedthat toquit the smokes,but itmakeone feelfunny

10:05 am

rururocks

I can feel funny without drugs

10:05 am

bichon

I used to take Welbutrin, but didn't think it helped me

10:05 am

Nef

personally, I don't think ritalin is a bad med if monitored closely. Crossy, I've never heard of kidney problems with it before (but will check that out

10:06 am

shdybr8

typical student: "do we have to buy the book?" Me: "No." Student: "Do we have to come to class?" Me: "no, you have to pay tuition, beyond that, it's between you and your parents!! go away, please!"

10:06 am

I started antidepressants about 3 months ago but am thinking of quitting them - I'm not depressed, there's just a lot of stuff going on in my life that I need to deal with

10:06 am

uusue2

lol, shdy! Works for me :-)

10:06 am

crosshair

my son was on ritalin for a few years before it hit his kidneys,but we were forced at the time as the school refused to take himunless drugged..then dexadrine and finally adderall

10:06 am

bichon

I haven't had any real problems with Ritalin, and now I can concentrate on what I am reading

10:07 am

shdybr8

funny, i started the wellbutrin for the never leaving the house thing, but now only smoke about twice a day, seems it works for that!

10:07 am

crosshair

try the time release onesbichon

10:07 am

crosshair

but each to thier own

10:07 am

they are way more expensive than generic Ritalin. I take one in the morning and one in the early afternoon

10:08 am

Nef

okay; I've been on Ritalin for 42 years for Narcolepsy. Just checked and it doesn't cause kidny problems but can cause necrotizing vasculitis

10:08 am

bichon

necrotizing vasculits sounds bad Nef

10:08 am

crosshair

a kidney operation is more expensive still

10:08 am

crosshair

but iwillleave it at that

10:09 am

shdybr8

my grad student tutees love me, i make the material make sense. My undergrad real students hate me, i cannot tolerate their laziness and don't hide it!

10:09 am

Nef

crossy, what happened to your son?

10:09 am

shdybr8

i'm thinkin' swollen and rotting veins is probably a bad thing?

10:10 am

Nef

necortizing vasculitis is not pretty

10:10 am

Nef

necrotizing

10:10 am

shdybr8

i think i'd rather randomly fall asleep, especially since i don't do that without meds, ever

10:11 am

bichon

I'll have to ask my doctor Nef.

10:11 am

shdybr8

wow, in a big circle, back to last night, huh?

10:11 am

uusue2

shdy, one semester I was teaching both Physics 1 and Physics 3 (both calculus-based courses for engineers). On my student evaluations, the Physics 1 students said I was absolutely terrible and should be fired; the Physics 3 students said I was the best teacher they'd ever had. (They had already had Physics 1 and 2, from other people, and knew how hard they are!)

10:12 am

Nef

shdy, falling asleep while driving or working just isn't a safe thing to do. I've fallen asleep on a stepstool, while making spaghetti sauce, etc. Not good.

10:14 am

shdybr8

sue, totally get it! i was a physics 2nd major as an undergrad, some profs made it easy, others made it hard. Now that I've taught for a while, i would have shot me as an undergrad, or maybe adored me for my independence - nothing in between

10:14 am

shdybr8

my favorite physics cartoon - hold on, finding a link

10:14 am

Nef

I was raised by an Aunt who was a teacher and county superintendant of schools. None of the 6 of us kids chose teaching as a profession

10:15 am

uusue2

most of the physics 1 students don't realize that physics is complicated and tend to blame the professor when they don't understand it, sigh

10:16 am

uusue2

nef, my mother was a kindergarten teacher, and I swore I would never teach - I originally started working at a university because I wanted to do research. It took several years of teaching before I was really comfortable with it, and a few more before I really started to like it a lot. Now I really love to teach, although I am still not fond of grading.

10:17 am

Nef

I loved physics in high school and would have like to take it in college; but that wasn't in my nursing courses and I never took it when I did have the chance

10:18 am

there is a good book by that title "The Om*** Man

10:34 am

uusue2

in physics, om5 stands for angular velocity :-)

10:35 am

crosshair

aka "iamlegand"

10:36 am

crosshair

funny how a word ascociated with finality and endings and aloneness can be velocity in other areas

10:37 am

uusue2

physicists are weird, crossy

10:38 am

uusue2

also, that's lower case; the upper case letter stands for, among other things, the average density of the universe

10:38 am

crosshair

that is why we lock themin classrooms

um, been there, done that (desparately trying to find common ground...)

10:44 am

uusue2

(I am joking, of course, he had to run off for some reason; I am sure he will be back shortly and tell us what is up)

10:45 am

uusue2

either that or I chased him off talking about physics...

10:45 am

Nef

hi Harp long time no see!

10:46 am

Nef

you probably out-did him, sue; I was laughing when I read that! :-)

10:48 am

go6/33 - rhymes with like a male child

11:09 am

Nef

i have the go 6/30 and 6/24

11:10 am

Nef

Got it! it's a term for someone who's sort of not Jewish?

11:11 am

sheila48

Great clue. Thanks

11:12 am

Erda

That gives me the first 3 letters -- then???

11:12 am

Erda

Figured it out!!!

11:12 am

Nef

"sort of like" is the clue

11:13 am

Erda

Thank you, Nef

11:14 am

LOL! Just read back and I didn't use those words! Poor erda!

11:20 am

rubyfoo

back for a couple while dinner is cooking -- leftover choucroute grani!

11:21 am

Nef

what is that, ruby?

11:24 am

rubyfoo

garni* sauerkraut cooked with beer, caraway seeds and pepper corns plus a large variety of pork meats and sausages, served with hot english mustard and boiled potatoes

11:24 am

rubyfoo

Strasbourg specialty but I make it as a winter dish

11:24 am

uusue2

it is very yummy!

11:25 am

rubyfoo

and pretty easy, as the ingredients are all available locally (except the caraway seeds which I had to buy in Switzerland)

11:25 am

rubyfoo

I used to make it with white wine, but beer is better

11:25 am

uusue2

although I always found the name a bit odd - it seems to imply that it is sauerkraut with accompaniments, whereas I found it to be typically sausages and pork with some sauerkraut mixed in.

11:26 am

rubyfoo

I cook the potatoes and sausages separately, just put the various pieces of pork and lardons (impossible to translate, sort of a bacon but less tasty) in with the cabbage

11:26 am

Nef

hmmm. Sounds good. Here I was thinking it was some sort of chocolate granola stuff (just from the name --which I didn't understand).. Wonder if the beer brauts and sauerkraut in Wisconsin is from that?

11:27 am

aebmusica

my family makes it with onions , white wine and apples(Sauerkraut).

11:27 am

uusue2

lardons are fattier than bacon, usually, aren't they, ruby?

11:27 am

rubyfoo

for sure, it is really a German dish but, for a change, I think the French have actually improved it

11:28 am

rubyfoo

unfortunately, not the lardons here which are too meaty for my taste

11:28 am

rubyfoo

where are they from, aeb? I'm sure that every region has its own way of preparing

11:28 am

aebmusica

Sourkraut...isn't that an unhappy german?

11:29 am

rubyfoo

My mother used to put a whole pork loin into saurerkraut without the beer or wine and it was fabulous!

11:29 am

rubyfoo

hahah

11:29 am

aebmusica

My Family comes from Alsace on one side and Ireland and Scotland on the other side.

11:29 am

uusue2

I've heard that kind of sauerkraut referred to as Bavarian sauerkraut, aeb

11:29 am

rubyfoo

but the meat in the US is so much better

11:30 am

rubyfoo

ahah, so that schoucroute is probably more authentic than mine

11:30 am

rubyfoo

mine is just tasty

11:30 am

aebmusica

no.. Bavarian has carroways in it.

11:30 am

rubyfoo

I used caraways and no apples

11:30 am

rubyfoo

kummel, in Switzerland

11:31 am

rubyfoo

it's a lovely dish and good enough for company

11:31 am

aebmusica

when i come for dinner, i'll bring my own apple ruby.

11:32 am

rubyfoo

the apples from my garden are all given away, sorry aeb!

11:32 am

rubyfoo

they were lovely this year

11:32 am

aebmusica

i' ll bring my own USA apple , ruby

11:32 am

11:33 am

rubyfoo

11:33 am

aebmusica

Ruby, have you ever made choucroute salade?

11:33 am

rubyfoo

this is my first garden, so it's largely experimental (and accident-prone)

11:33 am

rubyfoo

no, what goes into it, AEB?

11:33 am

aebmusica

Sauerkraut salad, this is

11:34 am

Nef

as long as YOU don't have the accidents

11:34 am

rubyfoo

sue: if you're still here, my first love was my physics teacher in HS but I still only got 75 on my Regents' exam!

11:34 am

rubyfoo

do you eat it cold?

11:35 am

rubyfoo

nef: yesterday I slammed my hand into a closing door, talk about stupid accidents!

11:35 am

aebmusica

Sauerkraut, red and green peppers, onions spices and vinegar and oil(sauerkraut is rised three times before using it) and it it severed cold on hot summer days. YUM YUM

11:35 am

rubyfoo

btw, I think go6 is a hoot!

11:36 am

rubyfoo

that sounds wonderful: I'm writing it down

11:36 am

rubyfoo

I'm not sure if your can get sauerkraut in summer here

11:37 am

aebmusica

and it is yummy...not like the french saying....Salade, salade, je suis malade.

11:37 am

rubyfoo

my typing is terrible, sorry

11:37 am

rubyfoo

do you speak French, aeb, or maybe gaelic?

11:38 am

aebmusica

ruby ... you can used canned sauerkraut if your in a fix....just remember to rinse it alot.

11:38 am

aebmusica

Oui...je parle francais and i compose Irish music.

11:38 am

rubyfoo

I'll have to look for it, don't know if they have it here (we're in the sticks!)

2:32 pm

MollyL

?? Transliteration error?? I'm not even sure I can pronounce that. : )

2:37 pm

uusue2

well, what I meant is that the original is in Hebrew, and there is more than one way to write that phonetically in English

2:38 pm

MollyL

Oh yeah, been there done that with French. It seems there is more than one way to translate just about everything.

2:39 pm

Mary

Hi all, need clue pls for the go6/33

2:42 pm

MollyL

Like a non-Jew, Mary

2:45 pm

MollyL

Sounds like "a young male has ****** charm"

2:48 pm

uusue2

French is bad but Hebrew (and Arabic) are worse, as it is a totally different alphabet and not all the letters have English equivalents

2:50 pm

uusue2

I remember back in the 1980s when we were bombing Libya, and some students complained about the different spellings of Gaddafi's name - "doesn't he know how to spell his name?" they sneered - of course, he does, but he spells it in Arabic!

2:50 pm

uusue2

anyway time for University council meeting, sigh, be back later!

2:51 pm

Mary

ty Molly but still cannot figure the go6 any other clue?

2:53 pm

uusue2

there is a 3-letter word starting with go that is Yiddish for a non-Jew, then add a 3-letter ending that means "sort of" or "like"

2:53 pm

Mary

OMG ty Molly just got it

2:53 pm

Mary

and uusue ty

3:37 pm

bichon

great word, great clue sue

3:50 pm

Michnick

hI ALL

3:50 pm

Michnick

Why isn't yoyo a word? Is it yo yo?

3:51 pm

bichon

no, I believe it is two words

3:51 pm

bichon

Shalom Michnick

3:51 pm

brid

yo-yo?

3:51 pm

MollyL

Yo-yo is hyphenated (not acceptable) and a brand name (not acceptable)

3:52 pm

Michnick

Ah, Hi Bichon, UU, Mary et al

3:52 pm

bichon

did you get the go 6/33?

3:53 pm

Michnick

Hee hee, I did, but the plural doesn't work. (The 3 letter word + em at the end)

3:53 pm

Michnick

the four letter plural works, english-ized not Yiddish ending.

3:53 pm

bichon

I thought it ended in im

3:54 pm

Michnick

oh, maybe you're right.

3:54 pm

bichon

like yodh mem

3:54 pm

Michnick

that's it, you are right.

4:01 pm

Michnick

I am over halfway with NBT, I may go to bed soon.

4:01 pm

Michnick

I send my DH to the pharmacy so I guess I have to wait up for him, but then - to bed!

hi again. I've packed up 2 boxes of Aunty's clothes and did a bunch of phone business; DH was off with a group of men for lunch and got back at 3 -ish; I'm taking a Babble break now! :-)

4:26 pm

Nef

oh; I also gave DH a couple of chores to do too! That feels good: he's working; I'm playing! :-)

4:41 pm

uusue2

4:45 pm

uusue2

bye, gramma!

4:46 pm

Nef

WTG, gramma!!! YAY for you!!!

4:46 pm

MollyL

Nef, I'm talking about giving your husband some chores to do so you can play.

4:46 pm

MollyL

That'

4:46 pm

MollyL

is much better than finishing the grid.

4:46 pm

Nef

Oh; yeah; that was fun! :-)

4:47 pm

uusue2

<--- is all in favor of giving chores to husbands

4:47 pm

stidmama

hey all! ((((Hugs and choclits))))

4:48 pm

Nef

it's so much more fun when they actually DO the chores though (especially if you are goofing off at the same time!)

4:48 pm

Nef

hi stid!

4:48 pm

uusue2

hi, stid!

4:51 pm

Nef

I got an automated call today from a company that they were going to schedule an appt. to come out a service something *AND THE APPT> was already set up for tomorrow but the auto call wouldn't schedule it til Friday! I spent about 10 minutes trying to get it straightend out; and the appt for tomorrow is cancelled now--wether I wanted it to be or not

4:51 pm

Nef

sorry for the typos; my BP is still up because of that call

4:52 pm

Nef

roomey

4:52 pm

stidmama

**Offers tea to Nef and puts soothing music on**

4:52 pm

stidmama

no E, I think Nef...

4:52 pm

Nef

sorry, not a word. I need to get away from the keyboard til I settle down a bit

4:53 pm

uusue2

I hear you, nef!

4:54 pm

uusue2

was just on the phone with my insurance company, they approved my thyroid biopsy but the valid dates are from 11/26/11 to 11/26/11 (which is NOT when it is scheduled and which is a Saturday anyway)

4:55 pm

uusue2

however this is apparently an artifact of how they do business, and it is actually approved. Weird notice, though.

4:59 pm

Nef

Okay; I think I'm calmed down. That call occurred at 4:30; so I was still upset by it. The company had made the appt. for tomorrow yesterday (when I 1st called them); I'd cleared the times etc.so that's why I was upset.

4:59 pm

uusue2

(((((nef)))))

5:00 pm

Nef

and sue; that is really weird!

5:00 pm

uusue2

I hate insurance companies.

5:00 pm

Nef

Sometimes I wonder how I'd get things like this done if I was working

5:01 pm

uusue2

fortunately I have a flexible schedule!

5:01 pm

uusue2

although now I am working on getting tomorrow's lecture done...

5:02 pm

Nef

I hate dealing with automated systems!

5:02 pm

uusue2

...which I should probably get back to. Active galactic nuclei, quasars, and the intergalactic medium, here I come!

5:02 pm

Nef

bye sue! good luck!

5:03 pm

uusue2

oh, automated systems really suck, nef. I especially hate these new ones that insist you talk to them instead of pushing buttons. They never know what I am saying.

5:07 pm

stidmama

have fun, sue!

5:07 pm

stidmama

Nef, I hope the rest of your evening goes well. Lucky is begging to go out again, so I will refill my tea and then start getting ready for tomorrow's sub job.

5:07 pm

stidmama

Have a wonderful evening, all! *poof*

5:10 pm

Nef

(I'm on another automated call right now; but at least this one will connect me with a person after I finish holding!

5:14 pm

Jellen

Hello...

5:17 pm

Nef

hi (on phone)

5:18 pm

Jellen

5:18 pm

5:18 pm

Dorens

hi (in library)

5:18 pm

Nef

hi Dorens! Are you okay? (I take it your power isn't back yet?)

5:19 pm

Jellen

Hi, Dorens

5:19 pm

Dorens

no idea when it will be either

5:20 pm

Dorens

i'm okay, but not sure how much longer i can do this pioneer gal stuff! stayed at a friend's last night, but missed my cats.

5:20 pm

Nef

(((Dorens))) Are you staying in your house? Is it warm enough?

5:21 pm

Dorens

(and she doesn't know her wireless password, she went down to visit a friend, so I can't use HER computer... so babble is out). and no nef, not nearly warm enough

5:22 pm

Nef

did you lose trees? Is the whole area out of power? (I'm so glad you are okay otherwise

5:22 pm

jmcnrick

there is some way to figure out from her computer what the pass word is--ask one of the geeks when they come on

5:22 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

5:23 pm

Jellen

Hi, jmc

5:23 pm

Nef

hi jmc

5:23 pm

jmcnrick

my boy did it when i lost my wireless password

5:23 pm

Dorens

good question jmc. but she took her computer with her... would be good to know for next time. I used hers when I was out of power for 6 days after irene

5:24 pm

Dorens

yes i lost 4 trees.. one is leaning on my house and i suppose we better do something about that. two were blocking my driveway and one blocked the road in front of my house. should put that pic as my icon

5:25 pm

Nef

oh, dear! It sounds like you should move here to MN where the weather is better! ;-)

5:25 pm

jmcnrick

brb i am messing with my internet connection out in the hinterlands

5:27 pm

Dorens

haha nef. my sister lived in st cloud years ago and i did visit during the winter. once!

5:27 pm

Nef

well, it isn't winter here yet! :-)

5:28 pm

Nef

but it's coming....

5:29 pm

Nef

I'm just feeling bad for you; the longest power outage I've ever had to deal with was overnight and that was in the summer; so I can't imagine what it's like for you

5:29 pm

Dorens

well i have been conditioned... six days after irene, so if it is five this time i'll feel better. Unfortunately am losing some of my frozen food, etc

5:30 pm

bichon

Dorems, do you have power yet? We just got it last evening

5:30 pm

Nef

no dry ice?

5:30 pm

Dorens

no bichon. doesn't look like i'll have it tomorrow either

5:31 pm

Nef

I have a friend who lives 2 miles away and her suburb has a lot of power outages. She's never lost food because she uses dry ice

5:32 pm

Uneaixoise

dorens, good to see you -- sooo sorry for what you've been dealing with -- jeezomeez!!

5:32 pm

Dorens

well, it could be worse! i do have water... and HOT water too.. only problem is that when i get in the shower i never ever want to get out

5:33 pm

bichon

we camped out in the kitchen with the fireplace going

5:34 pm

Nef

is there such a thing as a sterno heater?

5:35 pm

Dorens

i slept at a friend's last nite. might again tonight. not sure yet.

5:35 pm

uusue2

Dorens! I hope you get power back soon!! (and that the tree gets off your house!)

5:35 pm

uusue2

I called my dad and he is doing fine, only lost power for about 1/2 hour, but I see that it is warm enough now that your frozen stuff is thawing. Bummer.

5:36 pm

Dorens

thanks. doesn't seem to have damaged the roof, and so it is low priority... so many others in streets, on roofs, etc

5:36 pm

Dorens

anyone want some nice sockeye wildsalmon from my freezer come and get it!!

5:38 pm

jmcnrick

hmmm how far away are you again?

5:38 pm

bichon

we were out for three days and none of the food went bad and we still had hot water

5:38 pm

Dorens

half way between the GW bridge and the Delaware Water Gap

5:39 pm

jmcnrick

just don't open the freezer dorens and if it is relatively packed it should stay for 3 or 4 days

5:39 pm

Dorens

by yesterday it still had ice crystals in it bichon. not now. I've brought some of the food to my friend's. It's been four days already jm. saturday 2 pm

5:39 pm

jmcnrick

bbs i must reboot

5:39 pm

Nef

Dorens; you can get some dry ice and keep the freezer door closed and it should keep it for 2-3 days

5:40 pm

jmcnrick

oh dear then all you can do is eat salmon

5:40 pm

Jellen

O in the fifth column, please?

5:40 pm

Dorens

honestly nef. that sounds like a good idea but on top of all that i'm also working 9 hours a day with no lunch break. not going shopping for nothing (except a generator if i could find one)

5:41 pm

Dorens

greek letter om5/16 jellen

5:42 pm

Nef

5:42 pm

Jellen

Nef

5:44 pm

Nef

I swear that the grid box is eating my words that I enter! Or, maybe I can't spell tonight?

5:45 pm

uusue2

well, I just typed in an utterly random string of characters that turned out to be a word! (aw4/10)

5:47 pm

Dorens

it's been here before sue

5:47 pm

uusue2

I'm sure it has, doren, but it sure looks strange!

5:58 pm

Dorens

why is the second go4/8 a word but not goyem?

5:59 pm

periwinkle

I finally got off my bro in laws cell phone plan and got a new phone, just a basic one but new nonetheless

6:22 pm

jmcnrick

so i am thinking about concrete counter tops any one have any experience?

6:22 pm

jmcnrick

are you happy about that peri?

6:23 pm

periwinkle

yes I am, jmc, do not have to worry about any extra charges, the bill will come to me

6:23 pm

lynxxx

no - but they look very nice. What about the lovely soap stone you have in the States (or is it Canada) that looks brilliant

6:23 pm

periwinkle

will use it as my main phone, kept same number

6:23 pm

jmcnrick

there is a deal to be said for having the bill to come directly if you are paying it

6:23 pm

periwinkle

I waws not paying hhim anything. he had a family plan

6:24 pm

periwinkle

rather be responsible for my own calls

6:24 pm

Uneaixoise

hi, lynxxx!

6:24 pm

periwinkle

it will cost me more but worth it

6:24 pm

jmcnrick

it is certainly in canada lynxxx but it is in the US in lesser amounts. but i think concrete is cheaper and more durable

6:25 pm

lynxxx

hi Une and all

6:25 pm

jmcnrick

i understand peri -- i keep wa**ing for the boy to decide that. . .but i won't say anything until he gets a job i think

6:25 pm

Nef

hi again. jmc, I love the look of concrete countertops but haven't had any experience with it and don't know anyone who has them

6:25 pm

jmcnrick

i was just wondering if it was hard on dishes. . . am i going to be gritting my teeth all the time

6:26 pm

Uneaixoise

LOL!

6:26 pm

jmcnrick

sure you can laugh it won't be your glasses shattering

6:26 pm

jmcnrick

;-

6:26 pm

inge

Thanks . now I have firewris

6:27 pm

jmcnrick

whoo hoo inge!!

6:27 pm

Nef

I don't think it would be any harder than a stone countertop. I have heard that you need someone who has experience do them or they could look bad

6:27 pm

lynxxx

I got one of the granite look-a-like composites about 15 years ago - Have been very happy with it. Great color choice. More $ than wood but cheaper than natural stone.

6:27 pm

lbdawger

me too! whooo hoooo Inge!

6:27 pm

Uneaixoise

yay, inge!!!!!!!!!!

6:27 pm

lynxxx

Congrats Inge!

6:27 pm

Nef

YAY, inge!!! WTG!!!

6:28 pm

Nef

6:28 pm

jmcnrick

6:29 pm

lbdawger

6:29 pm

lynxxx

Congrats Dawg!

6:29 pm

Nef

YAY, lbd!!! WTG!!!!

6:29 pm

jmcnrick

i was looking at a portion for a breakfast bar in marble and the rest in concrete

6:30 pm

Uneaixoise

sounds very cool, jmc

6:30 pm

jmcnrick

i could get a grey green counter top out of concrete and a dark marble with green streaks for the breakfast bar above

6:30 pm

lbdawger

my mom had coreane...or something like that put in. it's been here for over 20 years and still looks like new.

6:30 pm

lynxxx

Got a girlfriend who has just done a large duplex with granite and marble everywhere. Really regreting marble in the kitchen as stains and marks badly

6:30 pm

jmcnrick

hey this is the last time i will be remodeling my kitchen so i want it to look good and to hold up

6:30 pm

Nef

that sounds really pretty, jmc!

6:31 pm

jmcnrick

hmmm good to know lynxxx is that true for a dark marble?

6:31 pm

lbdawger

bbl, gotta go burn something for dinner.

6:31 pm

Glantarell

evening all

6:31 pm

jmcnrick

i was also looking at a green and grey composite with shiny flecks

6:31 pm

jmcnrick

bye lbd have a nice dinner

6:32 pm

jmcnrick

hi gal n

6:32 pm

jmcnrick

er glan

6:32 pm

Nef

We wouldn't do well with marble or granite; I'd like some of the synthetic stone though

6:32 pm

jmcnrick

stats for the bottom o please

6:32 pm

Uneaixoise

evening, glan :-)

6:32 pm

jmcnrick

maybe i could do the breakfast bar with that composite then

6:32 pm

lynxxx

she has white/grey with very large black veining in it....not that you can see it anymore a it is constantly covered with cloths to stop the staining and marking

6:32 pm

Nef

oa4/4

6:33 pm

Glantarell

jmc - i have a black granite hearth and it is terrible for showing dust and marks - they do clean up easily but if I want it to look good I have to wipe with a microcloth more than once a day - never again. I suspect dark marble would be as high maintennce

6:33 pm

lynxxx

the dark green granite looking composite is exactly what I have

6:36 pm

MollyL

Glant, I hear you on the black granite hearth. I have the same thing and it is a pain in the ass to keep clean.

6:40 pm

jmcnrick

and how has the composite worked for you lynxxx

6:41 pm

jmcnrick

ty nef

6:42 pm

jmcnrick

stats for the last column O please

6:43 pm

lynxxx

It has been fantastic - still gleaming after 15 years - just wipe with Windex (not sure if you have that spray in the States). No stains. Just a little dull and a few v. small chips where my husband insists on cutting without any board. Doesn't scorch. Softer than stone so no smashed glasses etc.

6:43 pm

Nef

om 5/16 (in grid yesterday)

6:44 pm

MollyL

Yes, we have Windex in the States.

6:45 pm

lynxxx

BBS

6:45 pm

jmcnrick

yes we have windex and since i will be using this above the sink for a breakfast bar that sounds ideal

6:45 pm

jmcnrick

bye lynxxx

6:46 pm

jmcnrick

hardly did the grid yesterday but ty nef

6:46 pm

7:29 pm

rururocks

7:29 pm

MollyL

It's one of the dumber ones I've ever seen in these grids. But that isn't saying much.

7:30 pm

uusue2

huh, doesn't work as a ga word, though

7:30 pm

MollyL

However, re 5/18 and re 6/30 are just ridiculous.

7:31 pm

rururocks

ah, good. Mount Holyoke (where I went to college) was without power for a good two days.

7:34 pm

wht

But Lexington, the next town over, had no school for two days because there were so many people without light and the High School was being used as a shelter.

7:34 pm

wht

My boss is still without power and they are saying tomorrow or Friday before it comes back.

Miss Scarlett, with the rope, in the Conservatory

8:15 pm

I'm pretty sure it was a candlestick

8:16 pm

bethn

I am also wildly swatting at seedmoths, trying to get the population to a manageable level

8:16 pm

MollyL

I'm sure it was. I haven't been right about anything else today.

8:18 pm

bethn

you must have teenagers : /

8:18 pm

Nef

what's a seedmoth?

8:20 pm

bethn

if you have a bird, and you buy fresh seed/fruit mix, sometimes when you open the bag a moth will fly out. if you dont get that first one and it is female ready to lay eggs, you then become home to moths up the wazoo :(

8:21 pm

Nef

YUK! Glad I don't have birds, then!

8:21 pm

bethn

we have pheremone traps, and i empty the pantry and clorox everything, but it is a neverending battle

8:22 pm

Nef

How big are they?

8:22 pm

Nef

I hate fruit flies myself

8:22 pm

bethn

i bought the seed from a new source... i would like to trap some and send them back to her

8:23 pm

razor

8:23 pm

they are bigger than fruitflies, but smaller than the common moths you see outside near your porch light

8:23 pm

bethn

HAH ! I got the little bugger

8:24 pm

Nef

YAY!

8:26 pm

I am always scanning for them, anyone looking in my window would think I am nuts looking at the ceiling ....

8:57 pm

Nef

hi lbd. How's things going for you these days?

Mine last quite awhile...the letters just wear off...so, 'type by touch' is a must ;)

9:07 pm

Nef

PINI!!! Where have you been?

9:07 pm

Pinikula

uh ... here?

9:07 pm

bethn

fairly unhappy pini, a young man rand into the back of my new car while it was stopped in traffic- not much cosmetic damage,but it seems to have wrecked the transmission

9:07 pm

Pinikula

at work or home

9:07 pm

Pinikula

It's been one heck of a last several months...

9:08 pm

Pinikula

so sorry to hear bethn!!!

9:08 pm

Nef

I hear you (((Pini)))

9:08 pm

bethn

we go thru several a year here the bird is fascinated with the keyboard and will fly to it and remove keys laughing hysterically as he throws them on the floor

9:09 pm

bethn

yes, he would like us to tell the insurance people his mother was driving - we respectfully declined

9:09 pm

Pinikula

I would have declined, too, bethn!

9:10 pm

Nef

I just haven't seen you for so long, Pini; and when I was looking for someone in the rankings last night it looked like you had resigned or something

9:10 pm

Pinikula

oh, not resigned, nef...just been "off" for awhile...miss everyone. Just when I think I'm 'coming back', it all breaks loose again...know what I mean?

9:11 pm

Pinikula

btw...has anyone said that it's impossible to have 210 words in this grid...I have 10 words so far!

9:12 pm

Nef

I have 26 words left to find.

9:12 pm

Pinikula

nice, nef!

9:13 pm

bethn

give it a while pini, the words come out after a while

9:13 pm

jesdraggon

yay nef! I've dug 92 out of the mess so far.

9:13 pm

Pinikula

uh huh...sure they do!

9:13 pm

wht

Sometimes I think that they come out after I have gone to bed.

9:13 pm

Nef

Pini, if you check the rankings, you are in the middle column with something like 2,224, 778 or something but you aren't pink anymore; your name is black (like a non-member)

9:14 pm

Pinikula

ACK!! I'll peek, nef!

9:14 pm

bethn

well yes they are all hiding behind the m and w, ( they are the fattest letters)

9:14 pm

wht

That is why people like Gremlinn can finish the grid so fast at the flip. The words are nocturnal.

9:14 pm

Nef

LOL, wht; I think you have a very plausible theory there!

9:16 pm

bethn

can i help anyone before i go?

9:16 pm

Pinikula

you're right, nef...I'm not pink anymore (not sure what makes one pink); but it's nice to know I've not totally tanked the "who's hot" list...there's a very short list below me on that one! *sigh of relief*

9:16 pm

jesdraggon

Thanks all for the clue. I figured it the go 6/33 was close to the go 4/8 (which I have) but I'm not getting it. I don't get the haircut clue. I do get the non-Jew clue.

9:25 pm

Pinikula

no scandals..but 2 names of note: Lawrence Welk and Red Pollard (both married in-law types)

9:28 pm

Pinikula

that beer clue did it for me; have all 3 ya's :)

9:29 pm

Pinikula

that's a good question, nef...that would be a number that is the moving target

9:30 pm

bethn

we found that my grandfather, my mom's dad, who was thought to have abandoned the family and died actually just moved across the river to his "real" wife and had his 3rd child with her within months that his 4th child with my grama was born...we made contact with the other family they say he was a miserable man. PLUS we are italian, not french as we had been led to believe

9:30 pm

Nef

true, Pini. It's a moving number for all of us, isn't it? Personal question: are you from a large Irish Catholic family? (I am; I had 54 first cousins on my Mom's side growing up

9:32 pm

Pinikula

wow, bethn...that's gotta be pretty interesting...to know that you've got more kin than you thought!
