Babble shows up in Internet Explorer although I use Firefox. In the Lickety space I'm getting "This program cannot read this webpage format" and says I can Go back to the previous page (??? -- what previous page?) and offers More information, which I guess I have to try. What do you think?
12:19 am
cosdem

Hmm. ill check it on firefox one sec
12:19 am
dcseain

I think the new version of IE is not compatible with the internet.

Tear hair out time, Jilli. No help I'm afraid. I'm a Mac user!

I can not get Lickety's list since I went Windows 7. The next morning -- yes. It's a date thing...
12:21 am
cosdem

H's done
12:21 am
jillibus

The "More information says "This error (HTTP 406 Not Acceptable) means that this program was able to receive information from the website you visited, but the information was not in a format that it can display." I wonder if Lickety has the answer -- or Dr God.
12:22 am
jillibus

How can I get Babble Expert out of IE and into Firefox?
12:22 am
jillibus

It just automatically went into IE -- I didn't choose it.
12:22 am
cosdem

Babble expert is tied to IE for me and the list is there for me
12:23 am
cosdem

I hate it. I want it to use Firefox becase it takes forever to load if I use IE
12:23 am
jillibus

Yesterday, I also got a blank Babble page and this message in the middle: "Floating point division by zero." Lickety wanted a screen shot, but it didn't work.
12:24 am
jillibus

It's so weird -- when I enter words I get the green signal.
12:25 am
jillibus

Erda, the Babble page is there -- just the Lickety clues section is blank
12:25 am

3:17 am
rubyfoo

it dépends how you feel about rodents. We have a family of long-haired mice living Under the bird feeder and they are very cute and fat (from all the suflower seeds)
3:18 am
rubyfoo

one of them is about the size of a rat, but bright Brown and very cute
3:18 am
Alexis Elise

Rodents can be cute... from a distance
3:18 am
rubyfoo

yes, I love watching them through the window, wouldn't be so keen were they in the house
3:19 am

3:26 am
smores

eekk....I certainly hope not
3:27 am
rubyfoo

we are planning to be very careful when introducing them
3:27 am
rubyfoo

and I think, having been in a litter with 4 boys she'll be pretty tough and sturdy
3:27 am
smores

yes, that's very wise...but I'm sure they will soon be best of friends.
3:28 am
rubyfoo

husband will stay home with him while I go to fetch the pup
3:28 am
Alexis Elise

Introducing cats to each other is always fun.
3:29 am
rubyfoo

this should be fun as well
3:29 am
smores

lol...NOT
3:29 am
Alexis Elise

I put the old one in a room with the door shut and let the little one check out the house. Then they smell each other through the door and get a little used to each other. Works pretty well.
3:30 am
rubyfoo

I have a feeling tht Rafie will be in charge after a few months. Female chows are much tougher than the male
3:30 am
Alexis Elise

Aren't chows mean?
3:30 am
smores

good plan Alexis
3:30 am
rubyfoo

when people breed the, the females have to be muzzled or they would hurt or maim the males, even though the males are bigger
3:31 am
rubyfoo

we've had six and they've all been exceptionally gentle just protective of me.
3:31 am
Alexis Elise

My friend had a chow but then she had a baby and the chow hated the baby
3:32 am
rubyfoo

none of them has even bitten anybody and Ruby, once she got old, showed her teeth once or twice
3:32 am
Alexis Elise

They had to give away the dog because they thought it would hurt their baby
3:32 am
rubyfoo

ever*
3:32 am
rubyfoo

that's scary
3:32 am
smores

the cat I used to have was very jealous when Phylicia was born.
3:32 am
Alexis Elise

I told her she should have given away the baby
3:33 am
Alexis Elise

Keep the dog
3:33 am
rubyfoo

these dogs, especially the males, are very mellow
3:33 am
rubyfoo

I was thinking that, too, alexis, but didn't dare say so
3:33 am
smores

LOL...Alexis
3:34 am
smores

I always say so... but I am anti-children. It is expected of me :)

I feel bad for my son, but, as the French would say, it's not my onions.
3:37 am
Alexis Elise

I would never date someone that wants kids. That would be a huge conflict of interest.
3:38 am
smores

I take it he wants kids?
3:38 am
rubyfoo

he et the issue go a long time ago and they are very happy together
3:38 am
rubyfoo

they've been together about 18 years
3:39 am
smores

That's good
3:40 am
smores

I always loved kids, but said I would never have any
3:41 am
rubyfoo

I was happy with having one; I fell in love with him the 1st time he kicked
3:41 am
smores

I waited until I was 35...very glad I changed my mind :)
3:41 am
rubyfoo

I was only 19 and had been married just 6 month when I got pregs
3:41 am

3:42 am
rubyfoo

my mother was 35 when I was born and she was my BFF!!!!
3:42 am
rubyfoo

hadn't even finished university
3:42 am
Alexis Elise

I've said I don't want kids since I was a kid. People always said, "Wait til you get older." I'm 35... still never had the desire to have kids.
3:43 am
smores

lol...
3:43 am
rubyfoo

DIL comes from a very large, poor family and made the decision early
3:44 am
Alexis Elise

I feel sorry for my friends with kids. I always have. It just looks awful to me.
3:44 am
smores

really?
3:45 am
rubyfoo

I was happy with my choice and feel happy with son's, as well
3:45 am
Alexis Elise

I babysat for my friend for an hour recently. Felt like I was in prison.
3:45 am
smores

LOL
3:45 am
rubyfoo

he has a double career which wouldn't be possible wih kids (or even a dog|)
3:46 am
Alexis Elise

And she never sleeps or has time for herself. Can't work or do anything she wants.
3:46 am
Alexis Elise

I just don't see the appeal
3:46 am
smores

They are a handful....
3:47 am
rubyfoo

I was very Lucky with my son as he was an angel-baby. Looked like one (blonde and blue-eyed) ad slept through the night at one week
3:47 am
smores

But I'm glad I changed my mind. Different strokes as the say
3:47 am
Alexis Elise

Yes. It certainly isn't for everyone.
3:48 am
rubyfoo

This computer capitalizes when it feels like: words like Lucky, Under, etc. What is it thinking? LOL
3:48 am
Alexis Elise

Should be some IQ requirements for reproduction. Some sort of licensing.
3:48 am
rubyfoo

coran
3:49 am
rubyfoo

speaking of IQ -- not a word
3:50 am
smores

At least you know that...so many people, especially very young, can't wait to have kids.
3:51 am
Alexis Elise

My friend from school was pregnant at 13
3:51 am
Alexis Elise

She has 7 kids now and she's my age
3:51 am
smores

They think aww...they're so cute and want to dress them up...then reality kicks in.
3:51 am
smores

EEkkk..wow
3:51 am
rubyfoo

I was Lucky all around -- ws able to finish school and go on to have a couple of splendid careers and wound up here, retired with dogs and a garden. How bad is that|?
3:52 am
Alexis Elise

Not bad at all
3:52 am
smores

Wonderful Ruby :)
3:52 am
rubyfoo

7 kids is too many unless you're very wealthy and have help
3:52 am
Alexis Elise

But when you think about it... it used to be that way.
3:52 am
Alexis Elise

My grandma was 14 when she married my grandpa.
3:53 am
rubyfoo

It used to be that wasy, but many of the children didn't survive
3:53 am

Ruby, Sprite calls them all easy peasy. : D
6:57 am
car.eeyore

LOL! My computer does this all the time. I change the icon, but it still shows the old one. No matter how many times I refresh / log in it is still the old one.

Enjoy, ruby!
6:59 am
rubyfoo

it's sunny but not warm
6:59 am
rubyfoo

but at least we can see the lake
6:59 am
smores

well so much for that theory car. :)
6:59 am
lbdawger

we have sun and no warmth too. so i sit near a window and soak up the heat that way.
7:00 am
smores

same here...it did manage to get up to 42 yesterday
7:00 am
rubyfoo

can we get vitamin D that way?
7:01 am
sprite

no, not through glass, as far as I know. Outdoors seems to be needed. We will have to wait until temps go up a bit, ruby. Still SO cold here!
7:02 am
rubyfoo

I will be so happy when (if) this winter ends
7:02 am
lbdawger

agree with sprite. probably not, but it feels nice.
7:03 am
sprite

absolutely, dawg. And soaking up warmth is good for us too, we need more than just vitD
7:04 am
lbdawger

it certainly helps the attitude.
7:05 am
rubyfoo

and we should have daffodils by next week and the primroses are out in the bottom garden
7:05 am
sprite

sure does.
7:05 am
MollyL

Ruby, you don't get the same effect (Vitamin D wise) from sun through the window. But it does improve your mood.
7:06 am
rubyfoo

I need all the vitamin D I can get!
7:06 am
rubyfoo

does boiling the vitamin D milk remove the vitamin?
7:07 am
car.eeyore

Ruby, if you truly need the Vitamin D, you should take a supplement.
7:07 am
smores

yep...that's where the cats always lay in window
7:07 am
MollyL

Actually, during the winter months, in many places, it's hard to absorb the Vitamin D effects from the sun because the sun never gets high enough in the sky for its ultraviolet B rays to penetrate the atmosphere.
7:07 am
smores

not sure ruby?
7:07 am
car.eeyore

..especially during the winter months.
7:07 am
rubyfoo

I don't take vitamins.....
7:07 am
rubyfoo

I drink a lot of vit D enriched milk
7:07 am
sprite

my smart little dog does the same thing. Am happy for him. Sometimes at the end of the day, there is sun on my couch :)
7:08 am
MollyL

I take Vitamin D supplements all year long, but feel absolutely no difference from it.
7:08 am
smores

True Molly
7:08 am
rubyfoo

but you are a youngster, molly
7:08 am
sprite

ever since Scrabs told us about how important vit D is for our health and how most of us have a shortage, I take additional vit D.
7:08 am
smores

Same here ruby, I drink lots of milk and eat yogurt every day
7:08 am
car.eeyore

You probably don't feel a difference because your level is good. It is when it is very low or depleted that you will feel bad.
7:09 am
rubyfoo

I read that taking calcium suppléments is actually bad for your heart
7:09 am
MollyL

It's unfortunate that the most sun exposure some people get is walking to and from their cars.
7:09 am
sprite

I can feel the difference if I stop taking it.
7:09 am
smores

I do also take a multivitamin
7:10 am
sprite

yeah. I hate walking to my car. I think I will ride my bike to the car in future.
7:10 am
rubyfoo

the only time I ever took vitamins was when I was pregs
7:10 am
MollyL

I was actually very low when I got tested and was put on the maximum dosage at first, and felt no difference.
7:10 am
car.eeyore

I take a daily vitamin, vitamin B complex, calcium, along with my other meds.
7:10 am
sprite

I take vit D and omega 3. And something with a long name for my joints.
7:10 am
smores

Agreed, that's why it was never a big issue in the past, people did more outside
7:10 am

wouldn't you copy the web address and go to google and past it?
7:51 am
MollyL

Paste it where? Google is a web browser.
7:51 am
Anniebrook

gramma, how did you open Lickety in google?
7:51 am
Mom

((Annie)) good morning, Happy Passover. Sorry you are having these issues
7:52 am
Mom

I must scoot. Lots to do today. ((Hugs)) to all of you. See you tomorrow
7:52 am

Right click Lickety's hit save target as. Then open google and paste it.
7:52 am

Have a good day Mom.

Bye, Mom.
7:53 am

7:53 am
Mom

bye bye Bzzz
7:53 am
Anniebrook

bye Bea
7:54 am
MollyL

"Save target as" is not an option when I right click.
7:54 am
MollyL

And yes Annie, if it won't open, you would have nothing to click on.
7:54 am
Anniebrook

Molly, do you have Lickety's list?
7:55 am
gramma

At the bottom of this page under Friends of Babble in the 2nd column at the top it says Lickety's Babble Clues. Right click on that and what are your options?
7:55 am
lbdawger

must be off for now. hagd everyone. may bbl to visit.
7:55 am
MollyL

I would suggest that someone email Lickety. If this many people are having a problem, there must be something wrong.
7:55 am
BzznBea

Could it be an isue with the browser they are using?
7:56 am
gramma

I just recently started experiencing this.
7:57 am

Hello, All :-)
7:57 am
MollyL

Bea you have a point. If anyone is using Internet Explorer, I would suggest another browser.
7:57 am

So4? If I could find it I would finish so**. Before the so** settles. Clue, please?
7:57 am

Hi zoozzoom
7:58 am

Gramma, are you talking about Google Chrome? Google Chrome and Google are two different things.
7:58 am

NM. I had it in the wrong place.

lynxxx

Hello. Just came on and saw there are issues...Lickety does know about the problem but didn't have time to check out what was causing it ntoday I think
8:03 am
gramma

Okie dokie. I'm off. See you all tomorrow.
8:04 am
Anniebrook

hello lynxxx, then I wont bother him with an email complaining about this issue. thanks for letting me know that he knows. He is such a dear person.
8:05 am
lynxxx

hi Annie - yes he is a sweetheart to even bother continuing to maintain the list for us.
8:08 am
Anniebrook

does anyone think Lickety should receive some sort of compensation for maintaining his list day after day? I think so.
8:09 am
lynxxx

of course! has been the subject of much discussion here - all pretty fruitless though.
8:11 am
Anniebrook

Well, that makes an "army" of two. I really do think he should be paid for his service.
8:13 am
Anniebrook

Molly, do you have Babble Expert?
8:13 am
MollyL

Annie, I would be happy to pay for Lickety's list. I'm pretty sure he could change his site to a "pay to view", but so far has not.
8:13 am
MollyL

Annie, I don't use Babble Expert.
8:14 am
lynxxx

You know, I think I might contact him and suggest he put a Paypal or something on his clue list, then if people are so inclined they can donate some money direct to him. DrG doesn't want any extra money but I am certain Lickety isn't in the same situation
8:14 am
lynxxx

Going to do it now
8:14 am
72 Temple Owl

hello all
8:14 am
Anniebrook

I dont know how to use Paypal
8:15 am
Anniebrook

couldn't I just mail him a check for his service?
8:16 am
Anniebrook

Hi Owl, are you still have a problem opening Lickety's list?
8:16 am
MollyL

Annie, PayPal is not hard. You just open an account and link it to your bank account. You can then send or receive money through them. It's not much different than paying bills on line.
8:16 am
72 Temple Owl

i haven't tried yet
8:16 am
72 Temple Owl

down to 23 without it
8:18 am
Anniebrook

Molly, I do not bank on line nor will I put any info online re: checking acount
8:19 am
72 Temple Owl

same here. but i am thinking of opening a speial account just for that. would link to small credit union account with very limited funds
8:20 am
MollyL

That is the way to do it TO. A bill paying account.
8:20 am
Anniebrook

Owl, I wouldnt know how to do that also. I am very computer illiterate. I just google, play some games and email. That's it.
8:20 am
72 Temple Owl

i openend a nominal account when the credit union did to get a premium.

10:45 am
rubyfoo

10:45 am
MollyL

Ruby has a French keyboard.
10:45 am
rubyfoo

my m is Under the question mark and my question mark is Under the double s
10:46 am
rubyfoo

and why it capitalizes the unders is beyond me!
10:46 am
smores

I thought they switched it out for you
10:47 am
Buggie

what arrows are you looking for?
10:47 am
rubyfoo

no, it's English underneath, but it is still correcting for French, hence accent marks now and then
10:47 am
rubyfoo

to point at my name, e.g. ruby (arrows) buggie
10:47 am
MollyL

Ruby are they not next to your W?
10:48 am
MollyL

The < signs I mean
10:48 am
rubyfoo

my w is Under the z
10:48 am
Buggie

the bigger/smaller signs ?
10:48 am
rubyfoo

on the Fr keyboard, tht's where the arrows are, but not in real life
10:49 am
rubyfoo

yes, buggie, but I can live with this, just can't declare my love for anybody LOL

10:51 am
rubyfoo

the Q key is the A
10:51 am
rubyfoo

this isn't a laptop
10:52 am
Buggie

let me get this straight, you're using an azerty keyboard, but the pc tinks it's a qwerty ?
10:53 am
Buggie

thinks... I can't type today
10:54 am
smores

Almost noon, guess I should go get some things done... {hugs} all around...have fun everyone :)
10:54 am
rubyfoo

My tech guy, who installed it, brought me a French keyboard, but I can touch-type the usual qwerty letters. Just having trouble with the symbols which I guess I didn't touch-type
10:57 am
Buggie

ahhhh, okay, then they're uppercase on the .; key and /: key (bottom row, 2nd and 3rd from the right)

10:58 am
rubyfoo

hello nan
11:00 am
Buggie

you're welcome, wikipedia has some good images of the azerty and qwerty layouts to compare, just ignore the azerty <> as it's an extra key
11:01 am
rubyfoo

that's funny, why would they put an extra key
11:01 am
rubyfoo

my son says I should just by another keyboard
11:02 am
rubyfoo

I don't remember, buggie, where are you in France? Just getting old, I guess
11:02 am
Buggie

european keyboards needed the extra key as they all accents to deal with too
11:02 am
Buggie

OMG, I almost married somebody from Poitiers in 1979. I hope that's not you!

rubyfoo

he would be very anhgry
11:03 am
Buggie

well, you can set the computer to the french layout, so you type what you see, or you can get a US keyboard. I think my mu uses a canadian one (qwerty with accents)
11:04 am

A praying mantis has one ear.

12:08 pm
crosshair

12:08 pm
TraderKate

so i guess they hear in mono, not stereo
12:08 pm
crosshair

and as you know,they bleed purple blood
12:09 pm
TraderKate

sterilize? spring cleaning or OCD?
12:09 pm

12:11 pm
TraderKate

well,winston churchills said it best what chatting with a lady at a gala during the 40,s. she said "sir,if you were my husband ,i would do the world a great service and poison you" his reply was "madam,i assure you,that if your were my wife,i would drink it"
12:12 pm
rubyfoo

lol
12:12 pm
TraderKate

love that quote crossy, you come up with some real zingers
12:12 pm
crosshair

:)
12:13 pm
crosshair

the female praying mantis beheading her mate after sex brought that to mind.it is amazing what floats around in crossy's head
12:14 pm
TraderKate

... no cobwebs there, unlike my poor head )
12:14 pm
rubyfoo

dunk, at a party, Churchill was being forward and said to a woman, "Mdame, you are stupid" She said "Sir, you are drunk" to which he replied "yes, but I'll be sober in the orning"
12:14 pm

drunk*
12:15 pm
TraderKate

:-0
12:15 pm
crosshair

my mind is not sharp by any means,kate.think of it like a old railyard roundabout switching station.you know where you want to go,you even try to head there,but often you end up on a totaly different track.often those different tracks are interesting :)
12:16 pm
rubyfoo

I just ate 4 dates with crem cheese for desert I hope they're good for me....
12:16 pm
crosshair

sounds healty at any rate
12:16 pm

12:16 pm

healthy
12:18 pm

yummy, and nutrition too
...but i digress ( little mensa line)
12:19 pm
rubyfoo

I once went to a mensa party, what a bunch of jerks!
12:19 pm
crosshair

that last comment of mine about the switching yard was plagerized from Stephen King and altered for my own use.please do not sue me Stevie;))
12:19 pm

they are too full of themselves,ruby.too busy comparing brain pan sizes to be human
12:20 pm

reminds me of Annie Hall which I saw \9again!) last night on TV
12:20 pm
rubyfoo

when I was in high school (100 years ago|), I worked in the dean's office and looked up everybody's IQ scores
12:21 pm
rubyfoo

very bad nel!
12:21 pm
crosshair

but my creedo is"if you read one book for your paper,it is plagerism.if you read 1000,it becomes research"
12:21 pm
rubyfoo

I wrote one decent paper in college and my prof accused me of plagiarizing because all the rest of my stuff was so bad
12:22 pm
TraderKate

it depends on where you are ruby - twits in mensa to be sure, but lots of very nice people too... i thought mensa in europe was more of a way to meet people for dating? here each group varies quite a bit. in toronto, the monthly socials are always fun, and they plan outings and pub crawls a lot
12:22 pm
crosshair

lol
12:22 pm
rubyfoo

I'm sorry kate, that was many years ago and in Miami, where everybody was so coked up, who knew.
12:23 pm
TraderKate

ruby is very naughty indeed.... tsk, tsk, tsk
12:23 pm
rubyfoo

I am sure it's different in different cities and it would be nice to be around people who can use sentences of more than 3 words
12:23 pm
crosshair

i find that the smarter the person,the more they destroy themselves when they let loose a bit:)
12:23 pm
TraderKate

i wouldn't theink there'd be a mensan in all of miami... <snort>
12:24 pm

ruby had a very long naughty period....just ask molly
12:24 pm

She's still having it. Just trying to pretend like she's not.
12:24 pm
TraderKate

we will ask molly all about it when she returns
12:25 pm
rubyfoo

and VOILA!
12:25 pm
TraderKate

ah... molly was lurking, preparing to pounce!
;)
12:25 pm
MollyL

So let me see if I can make sense of this chat. Kate, you are a member of Mensa?
12:25 pm
rubyfoo

I'm going to have molly ghost-write y memoirs
12:25 pm
MollyL

No, I don't lurk, I just checked back in.
12:26 pm
rubyfoo

Molly intuits my secrets
12:26 pm
TraderKate

lapsed, yes.. i don't think there's an active chapter in the sticks here. it's not to everyone's taste, but any one of you would qualify easily, i'm sure
12:26 pm
rubyfoo

ya think? lol
12:27 pm
TraderKate

lining up for a copy of ruby's memoirs
waiting for molly to spill the beans a bit on ruby's past

12:28 pm

Hi ruby. Did not know the fr word for shingles. Do you have shingles?
12:29 pm
MollyL

My lips are zipped about Ruby's past. Also not a member of mensa.
12:29 pm
stidgmere

Avez-vous le zona?
12:29 pm
rubyfoo

no, TG, probably because I neer had chicken pox
12:29 pm
rubyfoo

I think you have to have had the to get shingles
12:29 pm
TraderKate

slinking off... that's what i get for telling. i don't tell anybody :((
12:30 pm
rubyfoo

my father had shingles once; it's the only time anybody ever saw him cry
12:30 pm
rubyfoo

{{smarty kate}}

Zona is the Hebrew word for prostitute!
12:31 pm

I don't have shingles but got the vaccine. Kate, don't slink off, it doesn't become you and we know you are overly qualified for mensa.
12:31 pm

12:31 pm

Naches girl

Zona is the Hebrew word for prostitute
12:32 pm
stidgmere

Yes. Oh well. Being silly.
12:32 pm
rubyfoo

and naches is good luck, right?
12:33 pm
MollyL

See, this is why I'm not in Mensa. I can't do the math to figure out how you would be overly qualified to be in the top 2% IQ bracket. : D
12:33 pm
Naches girl

Naches means deriving a sense of pleasure or enjoyment after making a big effort.
12:33 pm
Naches girl

Naches means deriving a sense of pleasure or enjoyment after making a big effort.

or what you give your mother if you become a doctor
12:34 pm
Naches girl

Don't know why I'm being repeated.
12:34 pm
stidgmere

I think percentages are overrated and since things can now be 200% or even more, well, why stop at bell-shaped curves.
12:35 pm
rubyfoo

what's the cutoff for top 2 percent
12:35 pm
MollyL

Not like nachos, which means deriving a big sense of pleasure or enjoyment after making a big effort with cheese and tortilla chips. : D
12:35 pm
rubyfoo

a,em to that, molly!
12:36 pm
rubyfoo

amen*
12:36 pm

You have a point Gran Mere. I would think a puzzle like this would be boring for someone of Mensa status. And trust me, I am never bored here. : D
12:36 pm
rubyfoo

bored? I don't think I've ever been bored
12:37 pm
stidgmere

Mystified, stymied, stumped, yes. Bored with Babble, no.
12:37 pm

tired, often. Bored,, never

I'm glad no one sees me monkeying. It is never a pretty sight when nonsense is the best type of word I can find.
12:41 pm

I'm going to put a lovely quote from the NYT into my profile about friendship and the Internet

they ate about 200 tulip bulbs one year but then were gone. Perhaps tulips are toxic for moles
1:04 pm
TraderKate

daffodil bulbs are toxic, don't think tulips are though - were there daffys too?
1:05 pm
TraderKate

..certainly would have given them a helluva tummy ache!
1:05 pm
rubyfoo

no, no daffs, but had put in more than 300 tulip bubs the first year we were here
1:06 pm
rubyfoo

very few survived the onslaught
1:06 pm
TraderKate

maybe seain's mom's dog was visiting?
1:07 pm
rubyfoo

there were extensive tunnels
1:07 pm
dcseain

tunnels such that fill dirt was needed?
1:08 pm
TraderKate

did you plant more aftre the erradication of the little blighters?
1:08 pm
rubyfoo

no, once the moles were gones, the tunnels were too
1:08 pm
dcseain

1:09 pm
rubyfoo

by the 3rd year, there were about 30 tulips left but those survivors have multiplied to about 100 now IF Rufie doesn't destroy them as he did last year

1:10 pm

you won't have too much time for gardening this year - puppyhood is wonderful, but time-consuming for their humans ;)
1:12 pm
rubyfoo

I can't work in the garden when Rufie is around because he runs away with my Tools or my cushion or the branches I cut
1:12 pm
dcseain

heh. puppies are 'fun' that way.
1:13 pm
TraderKate

2:40 pm

mostly, bichon, there are still a few things to get from the old house
2:45 pm
bichon

Did you buy a new house?
2:46 pm
uusue2

no, we are renting
2:46 pm
bichon

I am *never* moving again. My body is going out feet first
2:48 pm
uusue2

I didn't want to, but my ex defaulted on some properties I'd deeded to him in the divorce which ultimately led to me losing my house
2:49 pm
TraderKate

i'm sure there's a level of hell where you must perpetually move house ;)
2:49 pm
bichon

that's too bad Sue. With all you have going on with Frank too. How is your son doing
2:49 pm
smores

grrr...sorry to hear Sue
2:49 pm
uusue2

ugh, kate!
2:49 pm
uusue2

My son is doing well, bichon, I think the challenge of 5 engineering courses is what he needed
2:50 pm
TraderKate

wishes sue's ex would go to a very bad place and stay there
2:50 pm
uusue2

also a new girlfriend who's an overachiever (has a lead position at the firm that puts those little ads on YouTube, and is going to med school at night)
2:50 pm
bichon

That'll do it Sue
2:51 pm
bichon

Med school at night. Didn't know you could do that
2:51 pm
smores

Good for him Sue
2:51 pm
TraderKate

sounds like he's got a full plate - and then some!
2:52 pm
uusue2

I didn't either, bichon, it sounds crazy. When I was in grad school I worked about 20 hours a day (at least while I was taking courses)
2:52 pm
bichon

I'm glad he's gotten over that other girlfriend
2:53 pm
TraderKate

i guess no one needs any clues? i'm trying to psyche myself up to go out in the rotten rain/snow, but don't really want to...give me a reason to stay where i'm warm and dry ;)
2:53 pm
uusue2

he's been very thoughtful while Frank's been ill, too, comes over to walk the dog (also to do his laundry, haha), just brought me some lunch.
2:54 pm
TraderKate

sounds like you trained him well sue
2:54 pm
uusue2

he really is a good kid, and is starting to come into his own (he's 23)
2:54 pm
smores

I could use the so7
2:55 pm
uusue2

I could use any 7, 8, or 9 :-)
2:56 pm
TraderKate

so 7/32 pl of the so 6/21 before it.. which in turn is the so 5/12 before it with a vowel added on the end
the 6 & 7 mean to calm or make at ease
2:58 pm
windingwake

enable should really discover zoot suits.
2:58 pm
TraderKate

st 8/40 and st 9/54 combo....
st4/4 + sniffer and pl
there are a few words for proboscis in herer today by the way
2:58 pm

ah...thank you...7's done and 3 more S's down :)
2:58 pm

3:00 pm

3:01 pm

3:01 pm
windingwake

heh, i'm okay wiht the mystery, but ty =)
3:03 pm
smores

Probably a company trade name like kleenex or oreos
3:03 pm
TraderKate

no guy named zoot - but what i saw of write-ups always capitalized the Z
3:03 pm
smores

I still enter oreo every time ... lol
3:04 pm
windingwake

I enter zoot every time. Just in case it changes ;)
3:04 pm
TraderKate

The soot suit was originally associated with black musicians and their sub-culture. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word zoot probably comes from a reduplication of suit. The creation and naming of the zoot suit have been variously attributed to Harold C. Fox, a Chicago clothier and big-band trumpeter;[7] Louis Lettes, a Memphis tailor;[8] and Nathan (Toddy) Elkus, a Detroit retailer.

did you miss crossy's trivia? a praying mantis has only 1 ear.. and apparently purple blood - but i think he was pulling legs wtih the blood
3:06 pm
TraderKate

i try tara every time
3:06 pm

3:07 pm

i did not research the blood to find out..

BRB
3:10 pm
TraderKate

no 6/21, no 7/32 combo
most of the proboscis + half of a clock sound
3:13 pm
TraderKate

na 7/32 and na 8/45 combo
.. na 4/5 ("rat" or drug cop)
na 5/12 add a vowel to create a drug prefix
na 6/21 plural it
na 7/32 add another vowel to the end
na 8/45 plural it
3:14 pm
TraderKate

the grid does not accept fest, though i think it should.. but if you put the funny papers against it you will get fe 7/40 and fe 8/55 (pl)
3:15 pm
TraderKate

ef 7/40 and ef 8/55 (pl)
same lettters as the fe words...
a 3 letter bablet + "anon" and pl

3:18 pm

hello everyone :) - still looking for that os 7/28 -- anyone have a clue, please?
3:18 pm
TraderKate

hi judi - i didn't look it up - but you might ask cr5/12y... i think he was pulling my leg... pretty sure all life on earth is based on heme - therefore red?
3:19 pm
Judi

I would think their blood would be green, or brownish like a grasshoppers. S'ok. I'll live life without knowing.
3:20 pm
TraderKate

when it's cold out our no 5/10 and "toses" get very red
3:20 pm
windingwake

well, depending on the circulation system, even heme-based blood could be purplish
3:20 pm
smores

wheee...it's a TK clue fest :)
3:20 pm
windingwake

it goes bluish when it's not carrying oxygen
3:21 pm

Interesting factoid, though.
3:21 pm

true winding =- we should put you in charge of researching it, since science geek isn't here... is she still around?
3:22 pm

os 7, please?
3:22 pm
uusue2

ok, I googled it - since grasshopper blood doesn't carry oxygen it is greenish.
3:23 pm

for nan....when it's cold out our no 5/10 and "toses" get very red
3:23 pm

grasshopper blood has no o2??? does it not breath air?

3:25 pm
cybernan

looked forever for that last one without coming up with anything
3:25 pm
windingwake

It breathes air--but from what i vaguely remember from bio classes, insects don't really have a circulation system. They don't need one, because their bodies are so small
3:25 pm
cybernan

off to do some sewing -- guessing all of you have finished :)
3:26 pm
TraderKate

maybe just absorb it through the carapice? i haven't a clue...
bye nan!
3:26 pm
windingwake

so whatever liquid is in there wouldn't necessarily have to resemble our blood. But even our blood looks less red when there's less oxygen in it (in veins as opposed to arteries)
3:26 pm
smores

nope
3:27 pm
smores

Bye Nan...enjoy :)
3:27 pm
windingwake

insects have pores all over their body where the air gets in, yeah.

Oh, my heart goes out to her for her recent losses. Deep sigh. All I can so is send her positive vibes. And hugs. ((((((()))))

reading back on the donation idea.good enough but if we are to donate to anywhere we should donate a buck or 2 each to dr_g who is as i understand it from the last time we talked is keeping babble going as a kindness and out of love for his program and not making any real money on it.seems subscriptions to go pro are real,real slow in coming making any real money on it
6:41 pm
crosshair

lol,do not know what happened at the end there but you get my drift
6:42 pm
zoozzoom

Hello, Crossy..i am happy to do that also.
6:42 pm
crosshair

because if he gets tired if it and pulls babble then licketys is not much use anyways:/
6:43 pm
crosshair

now,saying all tha,he has not asked for a dime.i am just thinking out loud here
6:44 pm
crosshair

and it would be easy,since it is already set up.would just send him another subscription fee.lords know i have gotten 5 years out of the first 11 dollars
6:45 pm
crosshair

lord knows*
6:47 pm
zoozzoom

If i send another subscription payment..would it set up another account..which i do not need?
6:47 pm
crosshair

have no idea,zooz,just bouncing this idea around atm
6:48 pm
crosshair

just blueskying it as they say
6:48 pm
zoozzoom

I will log out and see what the options are.
6:48 pm
crosshair

if enough people like the idea,i can collect names and then ask the good dr_g about the details
6:50 pm
crosshair

so,if any of you are at all interested in this,just email me at p.a.melbourne and use babble in the subject line so i can find you and leave me your real name and you babble name.if enough respond i will look into it further
6:51 pm
crosshair

100 of us would be amazing
6:52 pm
crosshair

and in deference to past collection disasters i think this is best way as any donation goes direct,but we shall see.just thinking on it here like i say
6:52 pm
