hate to rock the boat, but I did like it better when lickety showed up later, since it gave folks a run at a listless attempt - I still do that anyway, though, so no big deal.

12:09 am

jillibus

12:09 am

Most of you fliptimers don't understand us feebleminded ones.

12:11 am

Book Doctor Gwen

oh boy the 10 is mine

12:12 am

jillibus

in7/44, btw, if it's new to anyone

12:12 am

rbud

12:12 am

negativeneil

A tardy flip.

12:13 am

jillibus

hi neil

12:13 am

Feebleminded? Not you, jilli.

12:13 am

12:13 am

grannyrose

well hello, stranger.

12:13 am

negativeneil

Hi jilli.

12:13 am

12:13 am

Not on the uptake anyway.

12:13 am

melonheadjujube

anyone get the 10?

12:13 am

rbud

you're like me, jilli, just much more relaxed about babbling and more into the social aspect than the competive aspect.

12:13 am

rururocks

in 10 mellon

12:14 am

jillibus

lots have got the 10, but not moi

12:14 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yepper, melon!

12:14 am

melonheadjujube

tx, I thought it was the gerundization of the in 44 but apparently not.

12:14 am

jillibus

babble is not supposed to be competitive -- the joy of it was that it was cooperative

12:14 am

rururocks

you have the in 7 jilli.. add to it

12:14 am

grannyrose

i go-ot it fir-st. (for once)

12:14 am

cybernan

12:15 am

melonheadjujube

jilli is 1000% correct. We compete withourselves, but we help each other.

12:15 am

jillibus

jillibus

NBC at 11:30 pm, ruru

12:32 am

jillibus

must remember to watch

12:32 am

rbud

if you like him, it was great. If not, I'm sure there were plenty of opportunities to pick at him, lol - that's how it goes.

12:32 am

rururocks

Donald trump makes my skin crawl

12:32 am

jillibus

me too -- what a creep

12:32 am

rbud

have always liked Obama's sense of humor.

12:33 am

jillibus

12:34 am

cybernan

missing one f ... all 4's so far

12:35 am

cosdem

US pres affects the world so ur rght Jill

12:35 am

rbud

lots of fussing and namecalling on facebook amongst my "friends" - hard not to jump in sometimes. I try to avoid politics for the most part.

12:35 am

IndiaJan

I would choose obama for sure

12:35 am

cybernan

don't like trump but it is mitt that makes my skin crawl

12:35 am

Erda

Mine too, Nan!!

12:35 am

jillibus

12:35 am

flosey

mine too nan, that self-satisfied smirk

12:36 am

IndiaJan

I dont think we are seeing the real mitt

12:36 am

Erda

I keep looking away every time he is on...

12:36 am

jillibus

MItt, the shapeshifter

12:36 am

Marais

@jillibus-- our election definitely is your business. We could build a long wall to keep you out. :)

12:36 am

Book Doctor Gwen

if someone who is not a billionaire did what mitt did to his dog, they would be in prison

12:36 am

jillibus

Is there a real Mitt?

12:36 am

jillibus

Hi IndiaJan!

12:36 am

Erda

There is no such person

12:36 am

IndiaJan

Mitt has a cottage in canada...

12:37 am

IndiaJan

Hey jill

12:37 am

cosdem

mitt has a home everywhere

12:37 am

rururocks

what did mitt do to his dog/?

12:37 am

helensgirlkid

Maybe we could build a long wall . . .

12:37 am

IndiaJan

Lol..too true

12:38 am

rbud

last night someone said that nothing had changed in four years, and since all presidents "stink" (not the word they used) we might as well let someone else have a go at it. what a poor reason to pick Mitt.

12:38 am

rururocks

BD Gwen?

12:38 am

IndiaJan

He took a trip with the family..and put the dog on the roofrack

12:38 am

Book Doctor Gwen

mitt dog event http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitt_Romn\ney_dog_incident

12:38 am

jillibus

Where in Canadqa is Mitt"s "cottage"?

12:38 am

cosdem

mitt put his dog on top of his car driving home from canada to NH or something

12:38 am

sammysmom

just hear son telling his girlfriend about me-lol

12:38 am

rururocks

are you kidding me?

12:38 am

Book Doctor Gwen

torturing the family dog is not "presidential" IMO

12:38 am

Erda

...in a cage...

12:38 am

helensgirlkid

He says the dog liked it.

12:38 am

rururocks

oh my god.

12:39 am

rbud

yes, in a big pet carrier, because the car (a HUGE chevy caprice wagon) was "too crowded" with all the kids.

12:39 am

IndiaJan

Grand bend ontario...on lake huron

12:39 am

Erda

and when it got sick, they hosed it down...

12:39 am

IndiaJan

I walk past it all the time

12:39 am

rururocks

He should put his vice presidential candidate in a kennel and put him on the roof and drive him around the country

12:39 am

sammysmom

he said. picture this.. you know ma.. this swet old lady doing her jigsaw puzzles on the computer, sipping her earl gray tea and JAMMING TO BOB MARLEY 11. she loved it

12:39 am

Bugsaw

I watched the debate where Mitt was talking about building the pipeline so it would be North American oil. Right. The pipeline goes right accross BC and then will be loaded onto tankers to float down the entire BC coast. People here don't want it. We are demonstrating against it but I haven't seen anything about our displeasure on the US news.

12:39 am

cosdem

lol I wish.

12:39 am

rbud

then they gave the dog away almost immediately afterwards, they really cared about the poor thing, huh?

12:40 am

Book Doctor Gwen

if you listen carefully you will hear comedians talk about strapping all sorts of things to the roof of mitt's car . . .

12:40 am

helensgirlkid

You all remind me - must download my ballot and vote tomorrw!

12:40 am

helensgirlkid

Ask me if I remembered . please - I should have done it today.

12:40 am

rururocks

that is absolutely awful

12:42 am

Book Doctor Gwen

why do republicans love to torture things so much?

12:42 am

rbud

that alone made me decide I didn't want him running our country - he doesn't even know how to take care of a dog! - and everything since just supports my dislike.

12:43 am

rururocks

how could anyone hurt a dog... ?

12:43 am

rururocks

or a cat

12:43 am

rururocks

awful

12:43 am

cybernan

stuck at 72 -- will leave the last 33 for tomorrow - good night :)

12:43 am

The chog's gone all wide again

12:44 am

jillibus

gnight nan

12:44 am

rbud

then of course the other side fussed about Obama eating dog... but I'm actually not bothered much by that, shows he's got a tolerance for other country's customs. Or at least he wasn't ashamed to admit it - but then of course he was only 6 years old, his parents had him taste some foreign dish.

12:44 am

flosey

thanks jilli, thought it was my computer

12:45 am

cosdem

lemme seeif the snow is still comiing down

12:45 am

cosdem

12:45 am

after all, folks in India are likely disgusted by our consumption of hamburger...

12:45 am

sammysmom

my chog is cut off on the right side

12:45 am

mixi6

snow casdem?

12:46 am

jillibus

What someone did at age 6 and what someone did as an adult and parent are absolutley beyond comparison.

12:46 am

rururocks

maybe he should go to africa to some cannibal country and dine there

12:46 am

jillibus

s'mom, this happened last night too -- no idea why

12:46 am

rbud

are there still cannibals? I suppose maybe.

12:46 am

cosdem

yes mixi we have snow here :)

12:46 am

Book Doctor Gwen

sorry, about the chog, i posted an url and that makes the chog fail to wrap correctly. it will fix itself shortly

12:47 am

cosdem

Jill: iits because someone posted an url link

12:47 am

jillibus

12:47 am

Book Doctor Gwen

12:47 am

12:49 am

rbud

as long as you remember to look for and remove the occasional double space in the long URLs, they work fine.

12:49 am

rbud

copying and pasting, I mean, as opposed to changing them to tiny ones.

12:49 am

jillibus

smores

hi all

3:45 am

hurshy

utter despair

3:45 am

Shallow One

gm smores, hurshy

3:46 am

smores

Hi :)

3:46 am

smores

whats wrong hurshy?

3:46 am

hurshy

it is NOT a good morning

3:46 am

Shallow One

what is letting you despair, hurshy?

3:47 am

hurshy

my cat marty has lost a couple more ounces and i just don't know what to do.

3:47 am

Shallow One

im sorry to hear that, hurshy

3:48 am

hurshy

the vet tested his blood and urine and it doesn't seem like there's anything much wrong with him

3:48 am

hurshy

i just don't understand it

3:51 am

smores

didnt you say he wasnt eating the new food

3:52 am

hurshy

right so i returned that and kept his old brand. he eats, just doesn't eat ENOUGH.

3:54 am

Shallow One

nothing to tempt him with?

3:55 am

smores

maybe he just lost a little from then, fortunately the vet didnt find anything else wrong

3:55 am

hurshy

no. he's never liked food that much, his whole life. it's just something one has to eat to him, it's not exciting.

3:56 am

hurshy

maybe smores. maybe i am overreacting.

3:56 am

smores

did the vet have any suggestions?

3:56 am

Shallow One

when i cat-sitted, there was nothing like liver, i got raided before i was able to unpack the stuff

3:56 am

Shallow One

(dont have pets of my own)

3:57 am

hurshy

the vet had me switch him to wet food regularly, instead of dry, because some of his kidney levels were a little high. she thought the weight loss was probably related to that.

3:57 am

hurshy

maybe i will go get some liver today and see if that makes any difference. i don't know, the only thing he ever gets excited about is carrots.

3:58 am

Shallow One

carrots? strange, and a bit funny

3:58 am

hurshy

i will probably call the vet again today.

3:59 am

hurshy

he ate enough yesterday and i was all excited that he was finally getting the hang of eating the wet food and then today, argh.

4:00 am

Eva

hi-how old is your cat hurshy?

4:00 am

hurshy

12

4:02 am

Eva

because they do naturally start to drop a bit of weight as they get older, but 12 is a bit early. Have you tried the raw diet-most places have it now-ground up turkey or chicken and nothing else-comes in frozen logs.

4:02 am

hurshy

no, haven't tried raw yet. but i don't think that would work well for him because he likes to graze, will never eat much at one sitting, and i can't leave raw things out for him!

4:04 am

Eva

It depends how hot it is where you are. My cat, who is now 18, has always been, as you say, a grazer. Hot a chow hound. He was having urinary stone problems over and over again and we switched to the all natural, all raw diet. I put it out and leave it out and he grazes ( I mean left to their own devices they eat many disgusting things with no problem),and he has done great on it.

4:05 am

Eva

you could ask your vet about it.

4:05 am

hurshy

well the food i'm giving him is super healthy, supposed to be the next best thing to raw. but maybe.

4:06 am

Eva

good luck...i know how worrisome it is when they don't seem to eat enough.

4:07 am

hurshy

well i really may be overreacting. i mean he did eat a decent amount yesterday. it's just not eating in the night when i thought he would, today, combined with finding that he has lost more weight.... which may be from a few days ago having the food he didn't like... has upset me

Ergot is a fungus that grows on rye bread, and ingestion of too much ergot can lead to LSD-like hallucinations, seizures, episodes of mania, and even gangrene. In the Middle Ages, several ergot poisoning epidemics, and the resulting behaviors, led to witch hunts and exile. People in Europe referred to its effects as “St. Anthony’s Fire" in connection with the monks of the Order of St. Anthony, who were often successful at treating the ailment.

Judi

My oldest brother died of cancer at the age of 55. My other brother is now 50. Short of locking him in a room and putting him in a straight jacket, I don't know what else to do to convince him to quit.

8:50 am

hego

Feel better River.

8:50 am

sprite

yes... *hugs crossy*

8:51 am

hego

Judi he had to decide for himself. Nothing you can do.

8:51 am

my own mother died of cancer in 1991 and my granpa died of cancer,and his da died of cancer,etc,etc

8:51 am

it is impossible to convince someone who doesn't want to be convinced. Alas.

8:51 am

Riverdance

I fell on friday night - guess you missed my FB post. Had x-rays - luckily nothing broken - right shoulder rotator cuff sprain and severly bruised right arm. Still cannot lift my arm up but swellling has gone down and meds do help

Judi

Oh, I know, hego.

8:52 am

Poor, Riverdance! Heal quickly, hon.

8:52 am

8:52 am

Judi

What led to the fall?

8:52 am

hego

river, yes, i knew you fell.

8:53 am

Riverdance

today is my first day back - driving was not grand as I have a stick shift - but I got here

8:53 am

Riverdance

I slipped in my own driveway on wet leaves and went down hard - guess not one can call me twinkle toes...what a klutz!

One tequila, two tequila, three tequila...FLOOR?

Judi, do all biggies today have the same ending, or are there exceptions? Missing one 7 and one 8.

8:56 am

Riverdance

9:53 am

TYVM

9:54 am

rbud

the last one is spelled very like the one you add the ending to, relates to a heart attack, I think - aren't they called myocardial in7ions?

9:55 am

doseffing

... yup ... that's them

9:56 am

rbud

that's actually second of the three, alphabetically

9:56 am

MollyL

The heart one is the one she already has.

9:56 am

MollyL

No, sorry, she had the other one.

9:58 am

rbud

they're so similar, I think I've used them interchangeably by accident

10:02 am

MollyL

Yes, and I have occasional dyslexia. : )

10:22 am

rbud

wow, can't believe it took me until I had 75 words before I noticed the common cuss word da4, lol

MollyL

Da4, Rbud : )

no I got it, but thanks Molly

11:06 am

MollyL

Yes, if I had bothered to get to the "really" part I would have noticed that.

11:06 am

smores

I jokingly typed it in and it took....lol

11:07 am

MollyL

It's in grids a lot. The old perverts who design these grids like any word that starts with those three letters.

11:07 am

smores

like your clue though :)

11:08 am

smores

hadn't seen it before, I know ***mice was in a grid not too long ago

Hey all

12:36 pm

uusue2

hi india!

12:37 pm

periwinkle

it is kind of creepy but it makes me laugh

12:38 pm

I have tr8 and ti8, what am I missing

12:38 pm

uusue2

12:39 pm

periwinkle

ty will look.

12:39 pm

sue, how is Frank today?

12:39 pm

IndiaJan

Hey sue..hows it going?

12:39 pm

periwinkle

ty sue

12:39 pm

uusue2

pretty good, india!

12:40 pm

uusue2

Frank seems to be getting better; I just have to keep him from eating anything that sets him off

12:40 pm

periwinkle

that is good news, sue

12:40 pm

periwinkle

did you ever check out the site for help with meds?

12:41 pm

uusue2

it's pretty frustrating for him, since his diet is still mostly liquid and he's lost a lot of weight; he's really hungry but has to be SO careful

12:41 pm

uusue2

I did, peri, they don't cover the one he's on, but before he needs a refill I will look more diligently

12:41 pm

periwinkle

indeed,must be very frustrating.

12:42 pm

IndiaJan

My sister has Crohns....she's having a lot of problems

12:42 pm

periwinkle

ok

12:42 pm

uusue2

also I think I gained a lot of the weight he lost :-/

12:42 pm

periwinkle

you could always contact the company directly

12:42 pm

periwinkle

oh, that is not so good, sue

12:42 pm

uusue2

ah, sorry for your sister, india, I always knew it was a sucky disease but now I am really learning just how sucky

12:43 pm

IndiaJan

Yeah..its brutal

12:43 pm

MollyL

Sue, so you really have to monitor what he eats? He isn't doing that on his own?

12:44 pm

periwinkle

bbs

12:44 pm

periwinkle

was wondering the same thing, Molls

12:44 pm

uusue2

well, he is, but he needs some outside, um, feedback, I think.

12:45 pm

uusue2

he's so used to thinking in terms of celiac that it's hard for him to switch; it's a huge learning process and it helps to have two of us

12:45 pm

saanichcat

Hi uusue, I also have Crohns. Sometimes a food which was OK can sometimes NOT ne ok a month later. I have a wardrobe in about 6 sizes! It IS a crappy didease. a real time-waster. Hate it.

12:46 pm

uusue2

hi, saanich, sorry to hear that!!

12:46 pm

IndiaJan

The drug side effects are horrid

12:47 pm

uusue2

so far he is getting away with tightening his belt but he's running out of belt holes (guy clothes are typically more adaptable than lady clothes)

12:47 pm

saanichcat

Thanks uususe. I am lucky, not as bad as many are.

12:47 pm

uusue2

so far he hasn't had much in the way of drug side effects (except the prednisone made him REALLY hungry and made it hard for him to sleep) but it is still early days

12:47 pm

saanichcat

but I dumped the horseoills they gave me, too many bad side-effects

12:48 pm

saanichcat

horsepills

12:48 pm

uusue2

supposedly the Budesonide has fewer side effects and also more targeted action; so far so good

12:49 pm

saanichcat

that's good news. the body will usually let you know!

12:50 pm

saanichcat

well that FW for me, later at flip. Bye all!

12:50 pm

uusue2

yay saanich!

12:50 pm

IndiaJan

Cya later!

12:50 pm

saanichcat

ta very much

12:51 pm

uusue2

the other problem with his eating has been that they discharged him from the hospital with very few instructions (not even a visit from the nutritionist) so we had to figure it out ourselves by trial and error

12:52 pm

uusue2

and the errors were no fun :-(

12:52 pm

IndiaJan

Geez...no home care afterr?

12:53 pm

uusue2

no - they sent us some Xeroxed sheets in the mail but that was it.

12:54 pm

MollyL

People without insurance get treated like second class citizens.

12:54 pm

IndiaJan

Yikes..and of course stress doesnt improve the situation

12:55 pm

uusue2

Indeed. Fortunately we are reasonably smart and can find, and interpret, information online, but it still has been quite the learning curve

12:56 pm

IndiaJan

Have you found a support group?

12:56 pm

uusue2

there are some online ones, and we also know some people locally with the disease, so that's been helpful

12:57 pm

IndiaJan

Thats good, sometimes it helps to bounce ideas off of others

12:57 pm

6:50 pm

smores

sounds like spanish speaking

6:51 pm

smores

aaa - did not mean to type that

6:52 pm

BabbleRabble

If the idea is to communicate, a Babble vocabulary might inhibit more than enhance the task.

6:54 pm

smores

so true BR - if I wanted to refer to the runt of a litter, I certainly would use ti6....lol

6:54 pm

smores

not :)

6:55 pm

weiik

smores, would you care to clue the ti6

6:55 pm

BzznBea

That was like pulling teeth...

6:56 pm

BzznBea

Until next time, all...

6:56 pm

BzznBea

ti6 - breast + male

6:56 pm

weiik

bye bzzz

6:56 pm

smores

means the smallest of a litter of pigs, but sounds like a person who likes breasts

6:56 pm

BabbleRabble

7:01 pm

smores

7:06 pm

BabbleRabble

Each grid has its challenges.

7:07 pm

weiik

dan2bit

7:18 pm

uusue2

I gave them extra bananas.

7:18 pm

Bugsaw

my monkeys want to cheat and look over your shoulder for that one uusue

7:18 pm

Minveryork

cr 7/40 sounds like Judd's last name from The Beverly Hillbillies dan2bit.

7:18 pm

uusue2

starts with a muscle spasm, ends with a neuter pronoun

7:18 pm

stidmama

It was tiring, Min, thanks for asking. I am just not a little-kids teacher, I think. They are darling and lovely and nice... and I am SO not used to the age, and clearly more attuned to older kids.

7:19 pm

dan2bit

ty

7:19 pm

stidmama

cr 7 is what muscles do after too much exercise

7:19 pm

Bugsaw

thanks for the clues!

7:19 pm

stidmama

I almost just put "after exercise" and then realized that might be only me...

7:20 pm

Minveryork

I could NEVER be a Kindergarten teacher either. I have high respect for any Kindergarten teacher. Better them than me!

7:20 pm

dan2bit

cr7 where you dance when you're too old for the mosh p**

7:20 pm

stidmama

Lizlin

Sleep well

7:32 pm

LisaG

the only issue i have with starting in the morning then coming back later to finish the grid is that I repeat alot of the words I have already put in~

7:34 pm

Bugsaw

I agree Lisa but I find I often find more when I can't remember what I put in. Age has its benefits :)

8:18 pm

stidmama

8:19 pm

Jillyjill

Doing pretty well. Made a great chicken vegie soup tonight.

8:19 pm

Jillyjill

Did you teach today stid?

8:21 pm

Minveryork

Stidmama, I'll wait to enter my last word 'til you're ready

8:22 pm

Jillyjill

Hi minv!!

8:22 pm

stidmama

yes, middle and high school art. NOT an easy group. Playing with same kids next several days (teacher is a friend), hope tomorrow will be a little smoother.

8:22 pm

stidmama

thanks min

8:23 pm

Jillyjill

Wow stid, that would be very intimidating...especially since I have NO talent in art..

8:24 pm

stidmama

I like art, enjoy creating and teaching it, know MOST of the kids already... and it was still pretty rough. *sigh* Not me, the nature of the assignment and the usual "testing the boundaries" to see if I still remember the rules from last year. *another sigh*

8:25 pm

stidmama

ready min...

8:25 pm

Jillyjill

Teenagers seem to always test boundaries...

8:26 pm

BabbleRabble

Hello, stid

8:26 pm

stidmama

yes, they do! Which is why I enjoy teaching them. But coming in as a substitute they always assume I do not have authority. It will be better. I bought cookies for tomorrow *sneaky teacher look* I will bribe them! :-)

8:27 pm

stidmama

hey BR!

8:27 pm

BabbleRabble

Tell them to behave or they will be outside washing windows?

8:28 pm

Jillyjill

Always works for me!

8:28 pm

stidmama

I wish I could threaten that! LOL no window-washing, but I might ask them to sweep the floors. Amazing how much dirt kids can track in over just one day.

8:31 pm

lbdawger

hi everyone!

8:31 pm

stidmama

hey LBD!

8:31 pm

8:32 pm

Minveryork

I am here!

8:32 pm

Minveryork

8:33 pm

lbdawger

8:34 pm

stidmama

Actual decent cookies from costco are expensive, but so much better than the standard nabisco packages.

8:34 pm

stidmama

YAY MIN!!!!

8:34 pm

BabbleRabble

Having a heat wave here: 38°F

8:34 pm

lbdawger

we're at a balmy 29°F here

8:34 pm

stidmama

I figure one small expense now and I will be more likely to get good cooperation next time.

8:34 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT minv and stid!!

8:35 pm

stidmama

It's around 40 here... but dropping down to freezing (or close) overnight. It's relatively seasonal, if a bit dry.

8:35 pm

stidmama

My last word was the LA word, Min

8:35 pm

Jillyjill

Having snow here as well, but I am NOT tured of it...no fires!! And no smoke!!

8:36 pm

BabbleRabble

It is the wind that makes being outside more challenging.

8:37 pm

stidmama

true, BR -- I am highly unfond of wind

8:38 pm

Jillyjill

I second stids comment..

8:39 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

greetings fellow addicts

8:40 pm

lbdawger

hiya, gwen! the wind is bitting!

8:40 pm

Jillyjill

Hi there Gwen! How are you?

8:40 pm

stidmama

hey gwen

8:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i'm having a nice boring day, and the weather here is pretty good too, sorry!

8:43 pm

Minveryork

Hi Book Doctor Gwen! How are you? Welcome to chog.

8:43 pm

Jillyjill

My theory is that one can always add more layers...you can only take off so many in remain out of jail...that's why I live in the mountians..

8:43 pm

stidmama

rofl jilly... as one who wears turtlenecks in summer...

8:44 pm

Jillyjill

Or a sweatshirt in the house...

8:45 pm

welki

hi, folks!

8:46 pm

Jillyjill

Hi welki!!

8:46 pm

Minveryork

Hello welki!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

8:47 pm

lbdawger

hi welki! i agree, Jilly. dress in layers and peel them off or add them accordingly.

8:48 pm

welki

BR, was thinking of you today - heard an oldie and remembered our fun a few weeks ago - 'there's a port on a western bay, and it serves a hundred ships a day...."

8:48 pm

Jillyjill

The things one thinks of on small grids...I just realized that the corner X is not used anywhere!

8:48 pm

lbdawger

wish my coworkers would learn that...dress accordingly! nearly melted today cuz they girls wanted the heaters on. jeez, wearing their winter coats as if it were cold inside...i was sweating!

8:49 pm

Jillyjill

That was Sugarloaf wasn't it BR?

8:50 pm

welki

(looking glass, if you mean the song - it was Brandy... you're a fine girlllllllllll)

8:51 pm

Jillyjill

Ahhh, was wracking my brain on that one...now have it stuck in my head!

8:51 pm

Jillyjill

...what a good wife you would be...

8:51 pm

stidmama

brandy, you're a fine girl, what a good wife, you would be
but my life, my love and my lady
is the sea...

8:52 pm

welki

yeah, but she was a bit of a tramp :)

8:52 pm

Jillyjill

I did know it was Brandy though...

8:52 pm

welki

actually, she wasn't - she wore that chain from the north of spain

8:52 pm

Jillyjill

LOL....

8:53 pm

stidmama

*grin* do we date ourselves?

8:53 pm

welki

nah, no dating involved - i'm an ol' bird

8:53 pm

Jillyjill

That was pretty much the very early teen years though....

8:53 pm

Jillyjill

One is the loneliest number, one is the loneliest number....

8:54 pm

welki

another from that time was king harvest, dancing in the moonlight

8:54 pm

welki

ohhhh, harry nilsson!

8:54 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

oh boy, is it time for singing chat again?

8:54 pm

welki

i love it :)

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

me too...

8:55 pm

stidmama

well, here's a little ditty from the week before last...

conjunction junction, what's your function?
hookin' up word and phrases and clauses...

8:55 pm

Jillyjill

I like some of Nillsson's less famous tunes like "I'd rather be dead, than wet my bed...."

8:55 pm

stidmama

the kids groaned and moaned, but it's one of the best ways to help them remember how conjunctions are used.

8:55 pm

stidmama

LOL jilly

8:55 pm

welki

or - the earth is a mass of incandescent gas :)

8:56 pm

Jillyjill

Personally, I like "I'm a Bill"..

8:56 pm

welki

*singing* me and my arrowwwww

8:56 pm

stidmama

yes, I'm only a Bill and I'm waiting here on Capitol Hill (sounds only too current, doesn't it?)

8:57 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i heard that song I'm a Bill a zillion times, and learned how a bill becomes a law in 5th grade, but never really understood it till much later

8:57 pm

Jillyjill

and waiting, and waiting....and waiting...

8:57 pm

stidmama

I really liked, and still like "what the world needs now, is love, sweet love.... it's the only thing that there's just too little of"

8:58 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

in fact, they never really explained what a committee was, how it worked, how you got on one, who controlled them, or any of that. which is really important to know, IMO

8:58 pm

welki

stid, i've been sorting my music, putting it on sticks, but the collection is huge

8:58 pm

Jillyjill

Or the Carpenters....

8:59 pm

lbdawger

seals and crofts, loggins and messina, chicago, gordon lightfoot...

9:00 pm

stidmama

true, gwen - but of course the "politics" are a little complicated for the elementary grades; in our state kids really don't have to study how the government works in high school (they cover it briefly in middle school) -- at the moment they are most likely to be interested in how their rights are impacted!

9:00 pm

welki

all there, dawg :)

9:00 pm

welki

we could drive for days and days :)

9:00 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

well, sh#t, i didn't learn it in high school or college either. kind of annoying, really

9:01 pm

stidmama

I wish they were more interested in teaching about civics in high school -- learning to debate/discuss after doing research; understanding how to interpret legislation; knowing who does what and how to contact the right people.

9:01 pm

Jillyjill

And see for miles and miles...

9:01 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

teenage wasteland, oh yeah, only teenage wasteland

9:01 pm

lbdawger

really oldies...statler brothers, kingston trio, everly brothers

9:01 pm

welki

ohhhh, i knew i liked you

9:01 pm

stidmama

The Weavers... Pete Seeger!

9:01 pm

Jillyjill

Somehow my oldest caught the political science bug in high school....

9:02 pm

lbdawger

biab, need more tea

9:02 pm

stidmama

My boys have grown up being lectured about citizenship, and taking field trips to the state capitol building (where I had a friend who used to work there)

9:03 pm

welki

<-- danced down the south street pier with pete seeger during a pumpkin festival about a gazillion years ago (and wishes she could sing like ronnie gilbert)

9:03 pm

stidmama

they also have learned extensively about gardens, microbiology, world geography...

9:03 pm

welki

oh boy - now i have 'deportee' in my head - hello, woody!

9:03 pm

Jillyjill

Wow, snow advisory here...winter weather...guess it's time to dig out the turtlenecks!!

9:03 pm

stidmama

really welki? nifty!

9:03 pm

welki

jilly, didnt you get snow earlier this week?

9:04 pm

stidmama

oh boy -- and the sweatshirts, and the thermal socks!!!

9:04 pm

stidmama

*draws pic of jilly-as-snowbunny*

9:04 pm

welki

we had about 6 inches of snow altogether

9:04 pm

Jillyjill

Guess I'll be putting my layering principle to work!

9:05 pm

welki

i have air miles, i have time i have to take off - where's the next babble meet after philly?

9:05 pm

stidmama

I was working for the Bonneville Power Administration when an original recording of Woody was found in the Spokane office singing several songs, including of course "Roll on Columbia" which I loved and memorized.

9:05 pm

Jillyjill

love it stid!!

9:05 pm

stidmama

Wish we could have another meet here welki, but it's hard to do middle of the school year...

9:06 pm

welki

i had the weaver's album with 'roll on columbia' - and don't know if you'd remember, but i have a stack of 'sing out' magazines

9:06 pm

stidmama

And I am just beat. falling asleep at the keyboard. Going to grab my guitar and pretend to remember how to play. **hugs and choclits for all** so lovely to see you. Thanks for the music!

*poof*

9:07 pm

Jillyjill

ooohhhh...I remember those welki!!

9:07 pm

Jillyjill

Bye stid!!

9:07 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

9:08 pm

Jillyjill

Me too!

9:08 pm

9:08 pm

9:10 pm

welki
