rubyfoo

2:42 am

Dachef

Of course, you all realise that that could actually be Ruby and really shes buried Sprite in the garden? Sprite should have had a codeword before she left....

2:42 am

rubyfoo

oh rose, that is awesome. And so thoughtful of him.

2:42 am

grannyrose

is the campari out?

2:42 am

2:43 am

rubyfoo

I brought ruby some jenever (dutch gin). And no, it is not out yet, lol it is quite early in the morning here still.

2:43 am

2:47 am

Trifioso

2:48 am

grannyrose

2:49 am

rubyfoo

2:49 am

Trifioso

2:50 am

rubyfoo

rose: sounds like himself is being a wonderful boy! Awful about the quakes -- we live on a very minor fault line, the last quake here was a 2 ((!)) on the scale -- only the Fr would even mention it!

2:51 am

grannyrose

yahoo trifoso!!!

2:51 am

Trifioso

stop the presses = I GREYED THE Y!!!!

2:51 am

Trifioso

2:51 am

Trifioso

2:52 am

Trifioso

sorry, not sure what happened there - I think my laptop had some sort of seizure from the shock

2:52 am

rubyfoo

awesome, Triffles! (sprite again, ruby is putting away the groceries now)

2:52 am

grannyrose

or there is going to be a blue moon...

2:52 am

rubyfoo

is it true, Trif? All easy? No big ones?

2:53 am

Trifioso

it's twoo it's twoo

2:53 am

rubyfoo

yoohoo yoohoo!

2:53 am

Trifioso

(and that about wraps up my Lily Von Shtup impression)

2:54 am

grannyrose

for goodness sake, just what sort of word is pl5/16?????

2:55 am

rubyfoo

don't have it yet

2:56 am

grannyrose

pl5, drama + first vowel

2:56 am

rubyfoo

spanish for beach :)

2:56 am

Trifioso

its a spanish word for beach or something, isn't it?

2:56 am

Trifioso

le snap sprite!

2:57 am

rubyfoo

lol Trif! vamos a al ...

2:57 am

grannyrose

well that explains it...how the heck would i know that? i ask you?

2:58 am

rubyfoo

you do now... all the things we learn from babble!

2:58 am

grannyrose

lol, too true

3:00 am

rubyfoo

sometimes in scrabble people tell me I use some kind of dictionary because of the crazy words I use... like etui and etna, lol

3:00 am

rubyfoo

latee

3:01 am

rubyfoo

sorry sorry sorry... I miss my expert!

3:01 am

Trifioso

I never used expert, but I did hear someone bemoaning it the other day - where did it go?

3:02 am

rubyfoo

I still have it, at home. But not on ruby's puter.

3:03 am

Trifioso

oh that explains that then. I can't remember who it was that was discussing it, but it sounded as if expert had ceased working or something, and I was most confused

3:04 am

rubyfoo

I shouldn't think so. It is just a kind of specialised browser, so as long as babble itself does not change, the expert will keep working, I guess.
Maybe the list was not up? If one uses the expert for the list, it won't do much good until the list is up.

3:04 am

Dachef

Expert working fine here. I can tell because I haven't done anything even remotely violent this morning.

3:05 am

rubyfoo

:D Silly Dachef! Thanks for the laughs!

3:10 am

rubyfoo

ok, gotta go, gonna do the flowers with ruby. *hugs* to you all and see you later. One Y still MIA and 56 left.

7:07 am

crosshair

dn,mine is still tearing the house and the other cats apart

7:07 am

crosshair

and he is almost 5 months now

7:08 am

Alycia

according to George Carlin, kittens have 2 neurons in their heads: one to let them identify trouble & the other to get them to it as fast as possible

7:09 am

crosshair

sounds about right,just found mine in the toilet..someone forgot to close the lid...

7:09 am

girlie

mine is 5 months .. he has had an hour outside time, an hour long play while I was meant to be doing my workout, another hour after I got home tonight ... and the minute I put the damn cat wand down to try and babble he goes and sits by the front door and cries

7:09 am

girlie

lol Alycia, sounds about right

7:10 am

girlie

lol crosshair, mine has worked out how to open the lid

7:10 am

crosshair

just an hour?? our 5 month old does aprox 2 hours of HARD play with our 3 year old cat and 2 hours walk outside on harness and whatever play time we throw in

7:10 am

crosshair

the 3 year old is shagged right out afterwards

7:11 am

girlie

crosshair, that was 3 hours today, but it sounds like I need a 3 year old

lbdawger

as much as i'm tired of this rain, i'm not looking forward to 80+ degree weather. the plants need it, but I don't.

10:29 am

stidmama

good thinking. We have inside blinds and outside shade on the sunny side of the house, I close off all the rooms and the core of the house stays nice. Which reminds me, time to close the back door now that it is warming up there too. brb

10:29 am

Riverdance

10:33 am

stidmama

I need to get going too, have to print a map -- kiddo needs to take his "online" final in a real location which I have never been to. Picking him up in an hour from school... I will be glad when today is over. Mother and Matthew have a concert this evening, too. It will be a long day. *poof*

1:12 pm

uusue2

hi flosey!

1:12 pm

crosshair

it is interesting,you can free dive as deep as you can stand bob up and hoist yourself into 4 feet of water

1:12 pm

flosey

hi Sue, just reading back, how many kids can afford to go for a swim at $8. a day? that seems a bit pricy

1:13 pm

uusue2

they have season passes, which is what most families get, I wouldn't use it enough though

1:13 pm

flosey

perhaps a season ticket would be easier on mom's pocket book

1:13 pm

crosshair

i take the wife and son..last time i tried to swim in public greenpeace got called;)

1:14 pm

uusue2

also they want to replace the pool at a cost of $40 million - for a town of 40 thousand that's a lot of money

1:14 pm

flosey

WHEW! I'll say

1:14 pm

uusue2

so needless to say the referendum hasn't passed

1:15 pm

crosshair

40 million?? my god,that is a hell of a pool!

1:15 pm

flosey

good there are some level headed people on the Board

1:15 pm

uusue2

well, there are three pools, plus water slides, plus a kiddie area with water features and wading areas, so it is pretty nice

1:16 pm

crosshair

we have a olymic size training pool here on blue mtn for the athletes..that was 2.2 mil including a dome and other attached faccilities

1:16 pm

uusue2

hmmm, maybe I have the numbers wrong. It was a lot of money.

1:17 pm

flosey

how long ago was that created crossy?

1:17 pm

crosshair

10 years ago

1:17 pm

rbud

("greenpeace", LOL!!)

1:17 pm

1:18 pm

crosshair

lol,rubud..was wondering if anyone saw that

1:18 pm

crosshair

maybe 4 mil suze

1:18 pm

uusue2

ok, it's $6 for residents and $9 for nonresidents per day, but season passes are $58 for adults and $47 for children so that's not so bad

1:19 pm

flosey

$47 for each child in a family? or are there family season passes?

1:19 pm

crosshair

everyone come to crossys for a swim!! we can have bbq ribs corn on the cob and i will dose a watermelon or 2 for the adults

4:36 pm

Nef

4:37 pm

MollyL

4:37 pm

Nef

4:38 pm

guernseygirl

Not sure I can either but I'm getting ready for a holiday in Wales.

4:38 pm

crosshair

why would you want to handle seaweed bread?

4:39 pm

guernseygirl

I got worried about my addiction and dried out for a bit, but.now I've got an iPad and I seem to have drifted back.

4:39 pm

MollyL

lava bread = seaweed bread, in the PB

4:39 pm

crosshair

there is no addiction when 100% of everyone in here is the same..that makes it normal

4:40 pm

Uneaixoise

seaweed bread? lava bread??

4:40 pm

Uneaixoise

what are these concoctions of which you speak? LOL

4:41 pm

crosshair

why worry about playing babble,do you stop eating,beat puppies,do you strip yerself neeked and climb on the water tower and toss tomatos at people while on babble? lol

4:41 pm

guernseygirl

Ki've never tried lava bread but welsh cakes are like scotch pancakes with sultanas.

4:42 pm

Uneaixoise

wow, headed to google for some definitions :-)

4:42 pm

guernseygirl

None of those things, crosshair, but worth thinking about.

4:42 pm

crosshair

mmm welsh cakes....

4:43 pm

crosshair

try the water tower one,it is quite fun till they haul you down

4:43 pm

Uneaixoise

ok, google says scotch pancakes are like American pancakes . . . and sultanas are raisins . . .

4:43 pm

Uneaixoise

so welsh cakes are pancakes with raisins in them?

4:43 pm

guernseygirl

Made on the griddle and eaten straight away with butter and a cup of tea - lovely.

4:44 pm

Uneaixoise

4:46 pm

Uneaixoise

we have a neighborhood tuxedo cat named Mao-Mao who's getting on in age . . . was left here when the Chinese couple next door moved away

4:47 pm

guernseygirl

Violet is the most destructive cat ever. I'm off to buy a new stair carpet tomorrow. She's clawed it through to the wood.

4:47 pm

Uneaixoise

he spends a lot of time staying cool under my car or nestled under my shrubs :-)

4:47 pm

Uneaixoise

yikes

4:48 pm

guernseygirl

A tuxedo cat. That would be a dinner- jacket cat here.

4:48 pm

Uneaixoise

seriously? LOL

4:48 pm

Uneaixoise

he's a sweet kitty -- and gets along well with the neighborhood dogs :-)

4:48 pm

7:20 pm

stidmama

I am glad you are feeling better -- do you like peanut butter cookies? Grant made me some last night (I was feeling deprived of sweets), and instead of 1 cup of white sugar and one of brown, he used two cups of white and 1 1/2 tablespoons of molasses. The BEST PB cookies ever -- in case you like PB cookies.

7:21 pm

kje

ok, gonna go to bed soon - hagn all!

7:21 pm

stidmama

7:21 pm
