My dad wrote a verse when he was interned in Hong Kong during WW2:

THE LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT

Polysyllabics just drive me clean frantic;
Simple, short words should suffice for out use.
Sesuipedalian, pocourantic,
Anitclimactic, and words as abstruse,

Those like sub-optimal and, say, spelaean,
Also thrasonical, denigrator,
Properispomenon and amoebaean,
Funniment, adjuvant, adulator -

Words like these horrors delight the pretender:
Knowledge rejects them with scorn and disdain.
Lovers of English should therefore remember -
Aways use only the clear and the plain.

1:06 am
sammysmom

20 years ago she did a project about the war and he went tohelp her with her presentation with his medals and a few stories and some pictures. ( he did not realise that the whole school would be there.. it was held in the auditorium)

True, dee.
1:08 am
VolleymomDee

wow sm... wonder if the school taped that?
1:08 am

1:08 am
jillibus

The local publisher suggested self-publishing but I'm not in7ed.
1:09 am
sammysmom

no , and the principal said later that he regretted that. he did take pics though and the school newspaper did a write up on it
1:09 am
VolleymomDee

You definitely need to scrapbook those things, along with the medals.
1:10 am
sammysmom

he was surprised that they were interested and some of them told him about their grandparents exeriences .. he said it was a great day
1:10 am
VolleymomDee

I think it is ridiculous when they suggest self-publishing... who has that kind of money laying around...
1:10 am

5:49 am

I was very excited the other day and happily switched over to Labyrinth thinking it was the Jim Henson/David Bowie one that I watched a trillion times with my children - only to be sorely dissappointed by a newish mini series. not the same at all!

7:11 am

only problem with the end of our one cent coin is you KNOW every single store will have prices like $22.23 or $9,93. they will make sure that in every case that it will always have to be rounded up
7:11 am
medusa

always the way crossy
7:12 am
rubyfoo

and it has a plural!
7:12 am

but that will not be right away as there are still 6 billiojn in circulation and it will take time for the banks to haul them all in

7:51 am
Angelsong

he had emphysema and had about 20% lung capacity; he also had double pneumonia. We decided as a family to have the ventiator removed because he would have had no quality of life, and the doctors told us he would have to be on the ventilatior for the rest of his life; his other organs had begun to fail because of the stress from his lungs.
7:51 am

(Annie)
7:52 am

and he probably thanks you all for it too angel.
7:52 am

So sad and hard for you and your family to make that decision, but obviously the best thing for him. Was he quite young?

trent, your story is very similar to mine. my mother was 52 and I was 26 and being an only child it was very hard.

I have lost two of my brothers now. The youngest one died as an infant, when I waa 9.
7:57 am

Agree trentsnana, the promise of being reunited one day is all that got me through losing my parents and brother
7:58 am
Angelsong

we told my brother yesterday that out loved ones who have passed would meet him. I can imagine the joy that brought.
7:59 am
trentsnana

Yes, I felt bad for my father-in-law when my mother-in-law passed. My husband and I were quite strong, knowing someday we will see her again. My father-in-law, on the other hand, is a non-believer and had a very rough time, thinking he'll never see her again.
8:00 am
trentsnana

I was not an only child, Annie. It would be difficult, not having siblings to lean on.
8:00 am

the Lord held us togeher emotionally so that we could do what we needed to do for him. for that, I am forever grateful.

Hi Molly
8:27 am

i guess people don't usually hope they have parasites.
8:27 am
smores

hmm...1st time I ever heard anyone hoping to have a parasite :)
8:27 am
MollyL

Why do you think it's a parasite?
8:28 am
smores

When do you go back to the doctor?
8:28 am
hurshy

my cats have some parasites and are being treated. seeing as i regularly kiss their paws... it's possible.
8:28 am
hurshy

i dunno smores, hopefully today.
8:29 am
hurshy

but then i have to await the test results.
8:30 am
hurshy

hurshy

the welsh kind
8:53 am
jmcnrick

welsh like i said. . .no vowels
8:53 am
hurshy

it's not so much no vowels as that they treat w as a vowel, no?
8:53 am
Haz1558

It's Welsh, w is the vowel.
8:53 am
medusa

would so never have got that!
8:53 am
jmcnrick

that explains the chidrens rhyme
8:53 am
hurshy

blythe drwg...
8:54 am

8:54 am
BabbleRabble

listening to the pronunciation of a word works better when the speakers are turned on.
8:54 am

i never could figure out when w was a vowel

8:54 am

i want to live in wales and work on doctor whoooooo
8:55 am

Does he still fight daleks? I haven't watched the show for decades.
8:57 am
hurshy

oh yes the daleks always manage to come back
8:57 am
hurshy

last time, he made them forget who he was, though, so that's a big advantage
8:58 am
hurshy

now, am i going to be able to get this ac8?
8:58 am
jmcnrick

i bet they remember
8:58 am
Haz1558

At least they're clean monsters, some of the ones I'v seen in trailers look as if they'd drip goo all over you.
8:59 am
Haz1558

ac8 is a plural. That's another letter filled in.
8:59 am
jmcnrick

it seems that if a monster is gooey you could kill it with salt
9:00 am
hurshy

there was one monster on original trek that needed a lot of salt, so you could kill it by withholding salt.
9:00 am
boatierra

Vowels are elongated sounds (sonant) that can stand alone whereas consonants are blunter sounding and almost always need a vowel to create a word. Hope that makes sense.
9:00 am
Haz1558

It would have to be a special type of salt only mined on the planet Klingon. (Mixing my space series up a bit)
9:00 am
jmcnrick

martian salt then

9:01 am
hurshy

there are loads of distinctions between consonants, too, not just between cons and vowels. there are liquids (r and L) which are less consonantal, and H is just an aspirant, in some languages only marked, not an actual letter. then you have labials and labio-dentals and some are voiced and some are unvoiced....
9:01 am
jmcnrick

haha i hadn't thought about him for a while
9:01 am

ooooo mimosas for everyone!
9:02 am
hurshy

for most people, sure, there probably isn't that much use in knowing all this linguistic distinctions. but it helps linguists figure out how languages are related, which has helped us know how various civilizations spread and when and where.
9:02 am
Haz1558

It's okay, I had found it earlier in the day and had totally forgotten that the sa4 was there.
9:03 am

well that is something i can understand a use for hursh. . .the traveling of languages is facinating if beyond my reach

9:07 am
jmcnrick

omg it was created by noam chomsky!!!
9:07 am
BabbleRabble

This will clear it up: In linguistics, a transformational grammar or transformational-generative grammar (TGG) is a generative grammar, especially of a natural language, that has been developed in the Chomskyan tradition of phrase structure grammars (as opposed to dependency grammars). Additionally, transformational grammar is the tradition that gives rise to specific transformational grammars. Much current research in transformational grammar is inspired by Chomsky's Minimalist Program.[1]
9:08 am
Haz1558

Ah yes, Chomsky was oft quoted.
9:08 am
jmcnrick

i read it BR and i still have no clue! haha

not the insurance. it is the doctors in this case. seriously, perhaps you do not need to have 4 locations so you canconcentrate on the patients you have . i need dermo care regularly.

Hey, TO - can you go to an urgent care facility (Not ER) in your area? Here in Delaware, the co-pay is the same for specialist or urgent care.

Some NPs are more thorough and caring than some MDs, but MDs tend to have better diagnostic skills based on clinical experience.

Hello everyone - sorry to hear you are still sick TO. I am as well - going on a month now and I am tired of it. I do have an appointment this afternoon to see my nurse practioner. I like her better than my PCP Doc who I saw 2 weeks ago for this same thing that has not gone away and so much worse

The urgent care joints are walk-in, no appointment necessary and you get to see a real doctor.

The Doc gave me a Z-pack antiobiotic and an albuteral inhaler and to take Mucinex - didnt work
9:57 am
Scrabbler

If you have pertussis then you will cough for 90-100 days and nothing will help. It would be post-infectious bronchial hyperresponsiveness. It could be "walking pneumonia"--takes 6-8 wks to improve and at this point an antibiotic won't help. Have you had a chest x-ray?
9:57 am
wvteach

found a You Tube clip that talks about the CR 5 and actually shows it being played - sounds close to a violin or psaltery

Mucinex, like other cold/cough meds, is useless.

Good Afternoone Everyone. How are you on this beautiful winter day?
12:30 pm
Nef

Hmmm. Everyone must be Babbling seriously on their lunch break; or they went to lunch leaving Babble open. It says there are 143 people online here; but no one is chatting. Oh, well; Happy Babbling anyway! :-)

xeiluj

Hi, me just back to see if i can get the last 72
12:32 pm

hi xeiluj. How are you today? I've just started about 1/2 hour ago; have NBT and am working on NBS
12:33 pm
xeiluj

I am good, just home from work, how about you?
12:35 pm
Nef

doing well, thank you. Lazy right now (Mondays are "recovery time from having the grandson here); but it's DH's b'day so will have a fun evening
12:36 pm

hello, back. Vet just left and both dogs are fine
12:37 pm
Nef

We're going out to a hibachi (sp?) grill for supper tonight; kind of entertainment and supper all at once.
12:38 pm
Nef

Hi ruby. Your vet made a house call for the dogs, ruby? Are they okay?
12:38 pm
rubyfoo

hello nef. That sounds like a good plan
12:39 pm
rubyfoo

she comes once a month with Ruby's heart meds and to check on Rufie. They're both doing well and there is no way I could get them into the car
12:40 pm
MollyL

Happy Birthday to Mr. Nef. Hope you two have fun celebrating.
12:40 pm
rubyfoo

Rufie, at one year, is bigger than Ruby. She couldn't get over how big his feet are and how sweet and gentle both dogs are
12:40 pm
xeiluj

Sounds great. Hope it goes well for you. Ruby, can't believe your vet comes to see you, that is so great. Glad they are both ok
12:40 pm
rubyfoo

hi Molly
12:40 pm
rubyfoo

it's on her way home from the clinic where she works
12:41 pm
rubyfoo

she has known other chows and they were all nasty
12:41 pm
Nef

Thanks, Molly. I hope he enjoys it (he doesn't know where we're going yet; our kids and the grandson are going too)
12:42 pm
rubyfoo

that sounds like a great party, nef
12:42 pm
Nef

ruby, you are very lucky to have such a nice vet. And I'm glad the dogs are okay.
12:43 pm
rubyfoo

she used to come for autistic Max and has come ever since
12:43 pm
rubyfoo

she used to come for autistic Max and has come ever since
12:43 pm
xeiluj

Nice to have such a good relationship with her
12:43 pm
rubyfoo

(not every month, that's just since Ruby developed the heart murmur)
12:45 pm
Nef

Definitely a keeper vet, then, ruby. I've been thinking of switching vets; but I've been too lazy to do so (my friend tells me that he's more expensive than others in the area) But he's the closest to us
12:46 pm
rubyfoo

she's been coming for about 6 years
12:46 pm
Nef

The good news is that our pets haven't ever had many problems, so it isn't at the top of my priority list.
12:46 pm
rubyfoo

the old vet would make housecalls for Max, but he charged a fortune and she charges very little and doesn't mark up the (expensive) meds
12:47 pm
rubyfoo

Max had what looked like mange but I think was just OCD and the Prozac I put him on, helped that
12:47 pm
Nef

that's really nice of her!
12:49 pm
rubyfoo

we're very lucky
12:50 pm

80 left and I'll say good night. Have fun, Nef and famille. Bye everybody

so the tool is called a socket wrench and the mechanism is ra7?

that is one kind of tool with a ra7 mechanism
4:43 pm

*Thanks God Smores didn't get all panty wadded about the correction*
4:43 pm

it is the tooth cog that allows the tool to turn in one direction and then move back in the other direction without moving the tool. . . some screwdrivers have them too
4:43 pm

lol...the only one I am familiar with...I thought it was just called by 2 different names

4:48 pm

Also hard to have a sense of humor. It's the crankiness factor, I think.

Good advice Chrissie. I am grateful every day for the ability to turn chat off.
4:54 pm
MollyL

I have to deal with enough cranky people in real life. I don't need that in a chat on a game I play for fun.
4:54 pm
smores

Is there a way to turn it off Molly? I sometimes click the "who's online" tab when I don't want to see clues.
4:55 pm
MollyL

That's what I mean.
4:55 pm
ChrissieDee

Yes, life's too short Molly
4:55 pm
smores

Cool
4:56 pm
MollyL

And the main reason I have to turn chat off is because of people who just blurt out random clues one after another. I like to find words on my own.
4:57 pm
ChrissieDee

Sounding a bit cranky there Molly, lol
4:57 pm
smores

Me too, although I do use and apprecitate clues, I don't want them when I am 1st starting.
4:57 pm
smores

lol....apprecitate...hmmm new word
4:58 pm
smores

But I understand with all the different time zones, when I am first starting, many are finishing up.
4:59 pm
MollyL

I don't mind clues in chat, here and there when someone gets stuck. But lately, chat has just become one big clue fest. I tallied one day and almost every word in the grid (except a few 4s) had been clued. Isn't the whole purpose of this game to find the words on your own? Eh, I guess it is for me.
5:00 pm
smores

Wow, that's alot of clues

Soooo, in spite of all that, can I get a clue for the sa5/10 ? :)

Hello all. Just getting started. Today is clothes washing and folding day. And I did that. Also we went into town with a list of things to do which included washing the car (I get coupons from my oil change dealer.)
5:29 pm
MollyL

Productive day, Gran Mere.
5:30 pm
stidgmere

Yes. I rarely do shopping but I wanted to get batteries for our phones and we needed some old fashioned expandable files for some paperwork. We took Murphy and he went through his first car wash. Maybe it was his last one, too.
5:31 pm
MollyL

I can see why a car wash would agitate a dog. : )
5:31 pm
stidgmere

Oh, sorry, I see I used a grid word.
5:33 pm
stidgmere

Well, Murphy was amazed but not agitated. I don't think I've ever seen him agitated. He gets really happy sometimes and runs around like he is a wind up tow.

The only sign of spring we have is that there was still just a hint of light in the sky as I was driving home from work at 6:00 pm
7:47 pm
Bugsaw

Saanichcat is at the low end of Vancouver Island and I am half way up so we get spring just after them. Stidmama is about the same distance farther south and her garden is going nuts

I hope it's hearty stuff growing because there is nowhere in the US that is past a hard freeze at this point.
7:50 pm

It snowed here in Boston all day and we didn't even get an inch.
7:50 pm
saanichcat

Bugs, it's a Saturday night tradition! We all go down with wine or whatever, go for a swim. The cove is wall-to-wall with small boats getting a free view too. The tress have frown over the years so we onlt see the high ones. Best night is the last one, when they use up left-over fireworks. Then a bunch of us take a picnic into the Gardens. Fun!
7:50 pm
HarryHood

you see some daffodils poking up here - mostly the ones that are planted way too shallow in peat
7:51 pm
Bugsaw

she sounded worried about another freeze and it is entirely possible.
7:51 pm
uusue2

she's in western Washington, Molly, the weather there is pretty mild
7:52 pm

Same here Harry, about the shallow daffodils.
7:52 pm

8:14 pm

the lancia was restored, the mercedes is completely 'as is' and is an extraordinary vehicle
8:15 pm
lynxxx

if you could afford those cars, you would employ your own mechanic wouldn't you?
8:15 pm
welki

the evaluator just put a $75,000 price on the mercedes, the owner is looking for $100,000 - we shall see
8:15 pm

oh lynxx, if i had that kind of money .... yeah, a mechanic, jay leno's mechanic!

I had "vintage" Saab 96 once. I don't know how many miles were on it and it didn't matter since neither the engine nor the odometer were original.

I had a 1975 Saab once. It was the only year they ever made a lemon. It drove like a charm but the cost to fix it was horrendous
8:18 pm
wht

But it did come with the dealer's service manual. I was just looking through it once and saw some procedure. The first step was 1) Remove engine. I decided I would probably not be doing that in my driveway anytime soon.
8:18 pm
welki

of course, like jmc, they are worth nothing now
8:19 pm
welki

<-- has the service manual for jmc when i come visit
8:19 pm

jmc is not worth nothing.
8:19 pm
welki

oh that's right, get me into trouble, wht - the CAR is worth nothing now (she has a saab 9-3)
8:19 pm
lynxxx

lol, I was going to ask what Welki was saying too!
8:20 pm
wht

My Saab 96 thought it was a Saab 93 with the 2-stroke engine. It still took a quart of oil every time I filled the gas.
8:21 pm
welki

and i've had very few problems with the saabs - the 86 9000 had 400,000 miles on it when i sold it

ty Molly - because I think there is at least one I seem to have upset!
9:07 pm

I'm sure you didn't mean to, and don't give it another thought. If people want to be cranky, we must let them, I suppose.

The potential for "lethal" takes all the cute out of a pit bull puppy for me.
9:52 pm
smores

eekk...were either of you hurt badly ruru?
9:52 pm
Uneaixoise

so sorry, ru -- the rescue pitties I've helped with have all been very loving and gentle
9:53 pm
Uneaixoise

Molly, it depends on how they're trained . . . as is true of most dogs
9:53 pm
rururocks

no.. just a nip at dylan.. the owner came out and grabbed the dog before there was more trouble
9:53 pm
MollyL

My condo development has flat out quit letting people move in who have pit bulls.

Well if that is the case (not allowing pit bulls) I think it is more than just the training. Because trust me, we don't have any genius dog trainers in my development.

sorry re TMI LOL
9:59 pm
MollyL

It's okay Une, I know that you know dogs much better than I do.
10:00 pm
smores

Agree Une, however certain dogs are much scarier than others if they do become aggressive. Pit bull, Rotts, Dobermans are the ones I am most cautious of.

That right there is one of the things I love about Babble, folks ..

10:03 pm
Uneaixoise

I had never been exposed to pitties until I started doing rescue transport -- it's been an eye opener for me -- I had heard nothing but scary stories about them before
10:03 pm
MollyL

I don't think it's undeserved. Those breeds would not have the bad raps that they do if they were not constantly involved in attacks.
10:05 pm
MollyL

It is nice, isn't it Tor? Sometimes I think we need to stock the PB with Midol and estrogen supplements.
10:07 pm
smores

I think we hear more when it's a pit because the attack is more severe. That is why certain breeds scare me more. I think chihauhas are more aggresive and bite more people than pits, they just don't do much damage.
10:07 pm

My ex used to say that he would much rather be approached by a stoner than a drunk in a dark alley. Because all the stoner was going to do was ask him if he had any Cheetos.

One of the many reasons I stay away from Facebook. Histrionics Central.
