12:36 am

Sounds a little cruel maybe but better than de-barking the dog by having his vocal chords cut.

he's got everything, he's not tangled up, he's just bored, I think. he's not ever going to be a house dog, he just needs to get used to it. he's young, the last of 11 puppies we had last year... just wish we'd found a home for him, too

Altagolfnut5

rbud? One of the tricks on a barking dog was always carrying a lemon squeeze bottle! He barked, he got a dose of lemon juice. Worked for the most part!
12:45 am
rastapopolous

so7
12:45 am
Uneaixoise

oh, jeez . . . have heard of squeeze bottle of water but not lemon juice
12:45 am
rbud

oooh, I could do that! straight juice or watered down?
12:45 am
negativeneil

Hey Karen! :)
12:45 am
rastapopolous

took the monkeys to find it, no idea what it means
12:45 am
Altagolfnut5

well, dogs like wayter..lemon juice, not so much:)
12:45 am
Altagolfnut5

hiya Neil
12:46 am
negativeneil

But you can't be standing out there all the time ready to do that every time he barks. And you need that kind of consistency... shock collar.
12:46 am
Uneaixoise

they don't like water sprayed in the face
12:46 am
Altagolfnut5

straight up!
12:46 am
negativeneil

There is also an anti-bark collar that emits a spray of citrus water.
12:46 am
negativeneil

I think Petsmart carry those.
12:46 am
Altagolfnut5

there is? wow
12:46 am
negativeneil

I'd check it out.
12:47 am
negativeneil

Yep. It costs more than the electric shock collar too I think... but better than de-barking a dog.
12:47 am
rbud

he just hates to be left out of anything, he barks when he can see or hear anyone, including through the windows, sigh...
12:47 am
negativeneil

A friend of mine was worried when he adopted a Chihuahua cross... but this dog turned out to be very quiet! He's lucky.
12:48 am
pugmama763

pardon me for asking but why keep him outside?
12:48 am
negativeneil

You'd think with Chihuahua he'd be a barker. And this guy lives in an apartment building too.
12:48 am
Altagolfnut5

hmm, lemon juice is about 50 cents. I'd go that route first! and if you can quit the barking in the house, it might work outside:)
12:48 am
negativeneil

I was wondering that too pugmama.
12:48 am
jillibus

rbud, do you have neighbours?
12:48 am
negativeneil

Dogs are smart Karen. They know where they can get away with stuff.
12:48 am

I already have lemon juice in the fridge
12:49 am
negativeneil

Ours figured that out fast, haha.
12:49 am
Altagolfnut5

lol yes
12:50 am
rbud

oh, I know, but we don't really want him, I'm sorry to say, he needs to find another home. We already had 4 dogs, including his mother - but she's living on a farm now, thank goodness, but they don't want him, too.

have you checked for local rescue groups that might take & rehome him?
12:52 am

still looking for a place to live Neil....real estate market is thriving while the rentals suck! But we do have an application in for the neatest house! Praying we get it

12:53 am

you bet, but they're swamped around here, and refuse to take him. We have two other big dogs, he even wears them out with his yapping. And I'm sure the neighbors are tired of it too, though we don't have many.
12:54 am
negativeneil

Oh wow, Karen... that's rough but hope you can get this place you're applied for.
12:54 am
pugmama763

well make sure they have you on a waiting list for when they have an opening , meanwhile the no bark collar seems the way to go
12:54 am
rbud

our older outside dog is a peaceful fellow, we moved them closer together hoping his mellowness would rub off on the younger one, but so far it just seems to disturb the older one's nap schedule, lol

just saw a restored old schoolhouse this last weekend, went to a big family reunion - they have it beautifully restored, and live beneath it.
12:59 am
rbud

plus they have a huge barn with a gorgeous farmhouse kitchen and lounge, lots of patios... *jealous*
12:59 am
negativeneil

Sounds nice rbud. What are they doing with the restored schoolhouse?
12:59 am
Altagolfnut5

the schoolhouse still looks like a schoolhouse?
12:59 am
negativeneil

I'm pretty jealous just reading about this... we're in a small [but pretty nice] 1-bedroom apartment.
12:59 am
jillibus

over halfway
1:00 am
rbud

Yes, you'd never know the home is under it, it's all on the side of a hill, with a lake below, the back of the underground part looks out over that
1:00 am
negativeneil

It does have gorgeous hardwood flooring throughout, except for the marble tiled kitchen and bathroom floors. And there is carpeting, wall to wall, in the bedroom.
1:00 am
Altagolfnut5

well Neil, if we dont get this house, I'll be camping in my tent trailer, so be thankful
1:00 am
negativeneil

But nowhere else.
1:00 am
negativeneil

I should post photos of it... will one of these days.
1:01 am
negativeneil

Oh Karen, I'm sure you'll find somewhere.
1:01 am
rbud

just looks like a little old schoolhouse otherwise. With barns around it, they moved it there, it only cost $100 - plus the cost of moving it, lol
1:01 am
negativeneil

Might have to settle for less than your ideal just to have a home for now?
1:02 am
negativeneil

Yeah. But what are they going to do with the schoolhouse? Just keep it restored as one? And why... open it as a museum?
1:02 am
Altagolfnut5

don't know...landlord wants us out asap, offered us a cash incentive to do so, but I said thats all moot if we cant find a place. Legally we have till Sept 30th, but think the new owners take possession mid July
1:02 am
rbud

oh, I really hope you get the place, Alta, it just sounds so perfectly interesting.
1:02 am
flosey

but with them asking all the questions they did, sounds like they're interested in you Alta?
1:03 am
Altagolfnut5

think they asked all the applicants the same
1:03 am
rbud

I don't know why they wanted it so much, other than the owner planned to burn it down. :O
1:03 am
Altagolfnut5

but no-one can turn down my cute roommate! She could sell ice to an Eskimo I swear!
1:04 am
negativeneil

Well if you have until Sept. 30th legally, use that time.
1:04 am

it is museum quality, for sure. though they had beds in it for the weekend, and some couches.

ok ruru, sleep well and happy dreams. No fooling around!

they are odd dogs..
2:16 am

very much a one person dog
2:17 am

in character they are much more like cats
2:18 am

I have always heard that the more black dogs have in their mouths, the smarter they are, though it may of course be an old wives' tale

I cannot find how to send a mail in facebook to more than one person... do you know?
2:22 am
rbud

I thought you could just keep adding names, have they changed that too?
2:22 am
sprite

not sure... do I have to type in all the names then? I thought I'd get a list to chose from :(
2:23 am
rbud

no, it looks to still work - you start typing and the name self-completes?
2:23 am
rbud

no, no list, I guess you're right about that
2:23 am
rbud

but it will still let you send to more than one.
2:25 am
rbud

shoot, 34 left and ground to a halt, don't feel like listing tonight, maybe time for bed.
2:29 am
sprite

ok done it, thanks for helping :) Are you leaving for bed now?
2:32 am
sprite

if you are, sleep well!
2:32 am
scouser

we are doing well in this grid - another babblet wa6/33 which will lead to a lot of giggles I would think (it does exist as a river-name in Britain)
2:33 am
sprite

thanks for the heads-up, will try to find it!
2:38 am
scouser

however, it is a proper grid because it has a coin (one of my Latin ones - medieval Latin is one of my hobbies) and an obscure fish !
2:39 am
sprite

yesssss a fish! It is good to have a fish in a grid. I like coins too, especially the really obscure ones, like dwei (?)
2:39 am
sprite

no, lwei, now I remember
2:40 am
sprite

sanctus is not valid though :(
2:40 am
scouser

No, not the lwei - this one has 7 letters. Fireworks here. As the sun has come out after four days of hiding I shall go in the garden for an hour. Luckily we had less rain than other parts of Britain.
2:40 am
scouser

sorry - coin starts with s (can also mean something maths-y)
2:40 am

wtg scouser! And have a lovely day. We are having another thunderstorm here, with heavy rain.

You all packed for the big trip? when are you off?
2:59 am

not packed, but almost everything prepared for packing. Just a few more things to pick up this afternoon.
Will be off tomorrow morning, train leaves at 8.16
3:01 am
lynxxx

what fun! is Terra going? or won't the rest of the family let him go
3:01 am
sprite

Terra will stay home. I would have brought him, but Rufie is very wild and playful, and Terra does not like big dogs playing roughly with him.
3:02 am
lynxxx

maybe next time, once he is past the puppy stage
3:02 am
sprite

yes, I think so. That is, if ruby and her husband will let me come back, grin.
3:03 am
lynxxx

they probably won't let you go home!
3:04 am
sprite

lol, that would be good. Better to be missed than having them waiting eagerly for me to leave ;)
3:04 am
sprite

we have this saying in du5 that goes like this: Guests and fish stay fresh for only 3 days. In du5 it rhymes.
3:05 am
lynxxx

good one
3:05 am
lynxxx

and thanks for the du5
3:07 am
Christine

Sprite, we have the same saying in England, and in US.
3:07 am
sprite

:) It is often true, isn't it... guests can overstay their welcome. But some never do.
3:07 am
sprite

really? Never knew that! How does it go in english?
3:07 am
lynxxx

Hello Christine
3:08 am
Christine

It doesn't rhyme - just that guests and fish stink after three days ... time to go home, or be tossed into the trash can.
3:09 am
Christine

Hello, Lynxxx - I'm catching up on my blog reading, between trips into Babbleland
3:09 am
sprite

hehehe ok! Always interesting, how sayings can be widespread.
3:10 am
Christine

Perhaps it started in Holland - on the east coast of England, we have lots of DU5 settlements
3:12 am
lynxxx

it is attributed to Benjamin Franklin "guests, like fish, begin to smell after 3 days"
3:13 am
Christine

I mean, evidence of DU5 settlements - an island in the mouth of the Thames has three old, round houses, dated 1620 (I think that's the date).
3:13 am
Christine

Did he visit Holland, while roaming Europe?
3:13 am
sprite

Interesting!
3:14 am
scouser

well we did have some naval wars with the Netherlands in the 17th century (and earlier) so perhaps they managed to set up camp? William of Orange etc etc
3:14 am
sprite

yes he did:
Franklin first visited the European continent in the summer of 1761, with his son William. They traveled to a number of cities in Flanders (what we today call Belgium) and the Netherlands and toured several Roman Catholic cathedrals. Franklin was particularly impressed that the Flemish people didn’t follow a strict Puritanical interpretation of the Sabbath. Franklin seemed to like the fact that on Sundays in Flanders many people "went to the play or the opera, where there was plenty of singing, fiddling and dancing."

In the Netherlands, Franklin visited the Dutch city of Leyden. There he met Pieter van Musschenbroek, who invented the so-called Leyden electrical jar, which Franklin used in many of his experiments with electricity. Franklin found the Dutch people to be very tidy and clean, but his son William was disgusted by the way Dutch men and women smoked pipes almost incessantly.
3:15 am
Christine

That's interesting. We learn new things, new words, all the time, on this game.
3:16 am
Christine

Some time ago, Jillinus responded to a questions, with the clue TH4 (or %) - iis there such a word/s?
3:17 am
Christine

No, there isn't - I have 3 Ts
3:18 am
scouser

I wonder why William was disgusted with the smokers - after all a lot of American funding came from the tobacco trade. Tobacco and snuff were absolutely the in-thing back then. Perhaps the son was puritanical?
3:18 am
Christine

Don't do as I do, do as I tell you ??
3:18 am
sprite

could be. and LOL.
3:19 am
scouser

re the th- word perhaps she was trying to clue the end of two sy- words.
3:19 am
sprite

there is no way to make a word starting th in this grid. Not even in enable! :D
3:20 am
scouser

no but there is an unexpected ending of -th
3:20 am
sprite

yeah I think I have those
3:20 am
Christine

Now that I think about it, I think it was a case of "I can't find th4" something of that sort. I was looking for them, or there
3:21 am
scouser

babblets within babblets hey
3:21 am

hehehe perhaps a matter of typo or babble blindness.
3:21 am

I was supposed to be going out in garden and got side-tracked. Bye all

Bye, enjoy the su4hine.
3:25 am

I have WA6/33 ... wa4 plus 2letters
3:26 am

I even tried a2z. I am having a very blind moment, I think.
3:26 am
sprite

could you please give me a dummy clue?
3:26 am
Christine

and that could get you sent to the pb
3:27 am
Christine

Thinke of wizards
3:27 am
sprite

argh... yeah that just did. And I already had the word :(
3:27 am
sprite

ahhhh got it! Thank you. Now I must look it up.
3:28 am

No definition, nor for the other DU-5
3:30 am

3:33 am
Christine

I think someone said the 8 & 9 are nautical words?
3:34 am
sprite

yes they certainly look that way.
3:34 am
Christine

The only nautical words I see are sa 4 & 5
3:34 am
sprite

they are compounds. You need something before those you found.
3:36 am
Christine

thinking, thinking -- need a cup of tea.
3:36 am
sprite

if you want more of a clue, just tell me :)
3:37 am
Christine

Oh please, Ido want more of a clue
3:37 am
sprite

ok, those boating canvases leave you groggy.
3:37 am
Christine

OOO found 'em.
3:37 am
sprite

good job!
3:38 am
Christine

Just as I asked, I noodled the word/s
3:38 am
sprite

grin... asking is finding... how often is that true in Babble!
3:42 am
Christine

Sometimes, I find my self staring, looking for a wor, then someone gives a clue, and the bloomin' thing is right in front of me (of course it is).
3:43 am
Christine

I think everyone else has gone to work, or gone to bed.
3:43 am
sprite

oh yes, same here.
3:44 am
sprite

I think so. I have 15 left here.
3:46 am
Christine

I have 78 to go - I keep drifting off to read my book. Actually, I should go to bed. It's 1.45am, and I'm meeting my daughter and her husband for breakfast, at 9am.
3:47 am

Good morning. I can't sleep so here I am and I have to be up for work in 2 hours.
3:52 am

aw poor zTink :(
3:52 am

That's not so good. I'm retired, so if I get sleepy, I'll just flake-out on the couch.
3:52 am

no I am not leaving yet, still 9 to go. I thought you were leaving, Christine, for your bed?
3:53 am
zTink

Playing on iPhone and I shouldn't have started this. I'm hooked .
3:53 am

No, just made another pot of tea, and I'll finish the book, so I can drop them off on my way to breakfast.
3:54 am

freedom, isn't it, Christine :) Well earned.
3:54 am
zTink

I keep saying "just 1 more word...."
3:54 am
sprite

zTink, sorry you cannot sleep, but glad to have you with us.
3:54 am
sprite

lol I know! Just ONE more word...just one...
3:55 am
Christine

While I worked, I loved my job (in a bank) but I really can't see how anyone has time to work, and play Babble, and do the other things we need to do. It helped that I didn;t have my own computer 'til aafter I retired.
3:56 am
sprite

it isn't easy to juggle all those things.
3:57 am
Christine

I used to tell my Dad, in retirement I found the two things I''m really good at - reading, and lying on the bed.

8:25 am

yup,some states ordered it dyed horrible colours as well
8:25 am

we did not have that
8:25 am
wvteach

or people would come down to Illinois (where I lived) and buy ol4 by the case
8:26 am

but the eary margerines were not that great,sold un butter form,wrapped in wax paper and very crumbly
8:26 am
wvteach

don't remember that
8:27 am
crosshair

was 25 cents a pound.
8:28 am

now,most of the modern "margerines" as so cut with water to promote low calories or other supposed benifits,that you end up with soggy toast,so i just wait for butter to come on sale and buy 20 pounds at a time
8:28 am

ground beef was 69 cents and gas was 19 cents but our salaries were a lot different

It gets WAY too political in here sometimes. And I really don't care, as I am largely apolitical. But people need to remember that not everyone shares their views on things. I see people get REALLY offended when the politics stuff takes off.
