Hi Flosey - I took your excellent advice and joined Lumosity. It's Great! Thanks!
2:17 am
dizgrannie

whatis Lumosity? plz
2:21 am
saanichcat

IT IS A BRAIN IMPROVEMENT TRAINING (whoops sorry ) course and has real scientific basis, not the self-help junk you see everywhere. If you Google Lumosiy, their site explains it well. Flosey knows more - she's been doing it for years. Helps stave off dementia etc.
2:22 am
dizgrannie

ty saanich, will definately check it out.
2:23 am
VYCanisMajoris

how is nicoise not a word here
2:23 am

Flosey must be deep in the grid! Youare welcome dizgrannie
2:33 am
flosey

Hi Saanichcat lol, was off doing Lumosity - bad time of day to do it!
2:34 am
flosey

it is great diz, enjoy if often - but there are some tests that are very difficult for me
2:34 am
flosey

should do it earlier in the day, when brain is a little more alert
2:36 am
flosey

it can be very frustrating at times too, but, if I lose my drivers licence over memory loss, I'll really be in a bind, we need a car on the island and hate to have to be driven everywhere
2:36 am
flosey

hubby is pretty good about it though
2:38 am
flosey

there are 3 steps to the drivers testing when you reach 80 - first doctor's test for memory and related issues, then, failing that, there's a computer test, failing that, a road test off island
2:38 am
saanichcat

good luck with the DL thing Flosey. I can't imagine you not passing it!
2:40 am
flosey

I did check in with the drivers' ed here on the Island, he took me around - roads I didn't know existed here, and told me I was a good driver - bolstered my ego a bit which is desperately needed at that point
2:40 am
saanichcat

I have seen the computer set-ups and elderly folks' reaction to them- completely overwhelmed and intimidated - adding to their anxiousness etc. Not fair at all to relay on strange machinery.
2:41 am
flosey

of course, our island is all up and down, winding, etc so am comfortable with it
2:41 am
flosey

there is a bit of controversy over that computer test - may be doing away with it
2:41 am
saanichcat

good.
2:42 am
flosey

lots of seniors don't use computers so they are uncomfortable to start with
2:42 am
flosey

anyway, have 2 more months before facing it a second time
2:43 am
saanichcat

That's what I was getting at earlier
2:44 am
saanichcat

Good after a healthy summer and not in the middle of the winter!
2:44 am
flosey

yes, saanichcat, my brother, 2 years older will not get one - do love to receive his hand written letters
2:44 am
flosey

he's in Toronto
2:45 am
flosey

anyway, on with the grid, 104 to go still
2:45 am
saanichcat

I wouldn't drive in Toronto even 30 years ago!
2:46 am
saanichcat

yup, me too. See you tomorrow at flip.
2:47 am
flosey

I drove from north of TO to the waterfront every day, nothing bothered me then, we moved west when I was 29 then went back, 5 years later 30 more years and nothing fazed me then
2:48 am
flosey

now, after being here for a while, I will not drive back there at all,
2:49 am
flosey

good night Saanichcat, I'll be here tomorrow night
2:50 am
saanichcat

nite Flosey, sleep well, get nicely tucked in.

I stopped at a local Chinese place to pick up my lunch. As I pulled up, a woman in the car next to me, jumped out of her car. She was wearing a rather posh looking full-length white terrycloth robe and slippers. She was going into the dry cleaners.

great start of a story! Go on :)
12:50 pm

Well, that was about it. I was just amazed that she would even leave the house in that get-up, let alone go out in public. All I could think was, "can you not make at least some effort?"

They might as well walk around naked. They wear their pants hanging off their arse and their boobs flop out of their tops.
1:03 pm

I though there was a part of San Francisco where you could go around naked?

I'd like to rest and play on the computer all day, Soodle; but DH is in a grumpy mood (and he doesn't know why); so I need to help him or else get him to take a nap so I can relax

2:53 pm
Soodle

Lol! Do you work in the Diplomatic Corps, Mael? If not, you should consider it. :-)
2:54 pm
Nef

At least DH may have an excuse. His legs were quite spastic last night and I was awakened with several sharp kicks (he was still asleep!). His M.S. has caused spasticity in his legs when he falls asleep; but this was something new.
2:55 pm
mael

I'm sorry nef, that sounds unpleasant for everyone. Is he feeling better?
2:55 pm
Soodle

Oh how horrible. I suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome, & its rotten!
2:56 pm
Nef

he slept through his spasticity this AM; so I was the only one who got kicked.
2:57 pm
Nef

Soodle, some people confuse RLS with spasticity. Either way; they're both pretty miserable-looking

we have dried catnip for our cat and she goes mad so i don't want to plant one as we have loads of cats in our neighbourhood and i don't want them peeing and pooing everywhere and pulling my plants out of my tubs and window boxes
3:28 pm
Nef

actually, mints are also related to catnip. If you feel the stem of the plant; they will feel square; which means they are part of that family.
3:28 pm
mael

it's very true, nef
3:28 pm

really nef, i never knew that about mint and catnip.i always have mint growing in tubs

the chive flowers are great to eat and makes things look pretty. . .

constantly insult people.
3:31 pm

we have chives, oregano, catnip, peppermint, spearmint and..... I've forgotten the other mint. They all are growing in deep pots sunk in the ground because of how they spread (not the chives, though They are already coming up though

Theres a thing! How do you guys across the Atlantic pronounce 'oregano'? I say OriGANNO. I've heard it pronounced ad orIGGano on TV shows. What do you call it?

3:41 pm

the more layers the better. You need to get the pasta sheets as thin as possible, so they get crispy on the edges and melty in the middle
3:41 pm

amazon is a big internet store. . . i usually buy my books direct from dealers but if i can't find them i will buy them through amazon. . .
3:59 pm

First of all, check into whether or not Amazon Prime is available in Canada. Your 79 bucks gets you free 2 day shipping on most orders and free streaming of movies and TV shows. It's not Netflix.

He does most of the cooking - there are times when we share it and other times when I cook. He shouldn't have complained that stir fry veg was not a meal, when we first went out!

6:06 pm

i agree with lbd.we always get a weather forecast one night and the next day it isn't always as they say and what gets me is that they clump us together as in counties(here) but it could be sunny where i live and down the road in another village it could be raining or snowing.our county is uite a big one!
6:09 pm
lynxxx

Our weather people are very good now - a 5 day forecast can be pretty accurate - I understand the number of radar sites they have make it pretty accurate - will be even better when they get more sites.
6:10 pm
Nef

Our weathermen have been telling us for over a month that "this is our Last snow of the season." Humph!!! We've had about 6 "Last snows" so far.
6:12 pm
lilliann

we do get 5 day forecasts here aswell lynn, a few weeks ago we were going to be in for so much snow so we bought things to deal with it and we hardly had any and that forecast even went to the village i live in.so now, i take what they say with a pinch of salt and look out of my window and go from there
6:13 pm

Ascension day celebrates the day when Christ ascended into heaven, lillian
6:15 pm
lilliann

i know it can change quickly but then they shouldn't give us 5 day weather forecasts.i know it must be hard for these people as our weather has changed dramatically over the years but we look to these people to know what they are doing and saying
6:15 pm
lynxxx

ascension = re6.18 & 7.28
6:15 pm
MollyL

TO, interesting video you posted in your profile.
6:16 pm

I think she was saying that they celebrate on whatever day of the week it is; jaxx7; not that she didn't know what ascension is
6:16 pm

molly, i though i removed all the vids...let me look at myself :)
6:17 pm
VYCanisMajoris

except ascension day, and every other christian doctrine pertaining to jesus, actually pertains to the sun
6:18 pm
VYCanisMajoris

for he who was buried for three days (beneath the horizon on december 22 23 and 24th) rose again on december 25th bringing the world peace and is thus humankind's savior
6:18 pm
72 Temple Owl

ooh, dinner bell ringing, off I go!
6:18 pm
lilliann

ty jax, i know what ascension day is, i was just saying whatever day it happens upon in france is the day they celebrate it :)
6:18 pm
VYCanisMajoris

as it started rising again back into the northern hemisphere
6:19 pm
VYCanisMajoris

its useful to know what you're actually celebrating.. we seem to celebrate days without knowing what they actually are
6:19 pm
VYCanisMajoris

that to me is insanity
6:19 pm
VYCanisMajoris

that to me is insanity

I'm pretty well aware of the origins of all the days, rites and celebrations that I participate in.
6:20 pm

every year
6:20 pm
VYCanisMajoris

did you know that jesus is actually the sun? hence the halo or illumination behind every portrait of him?
6:21 pm
lilliann

you're quite right magoris. i don't celebrate alot of them, they just happen to be bank holidays to me:)
6:21 pm
lynxxx

seems like Christians just tagged onto pagan etc celebrations
6:21 pm
MollyL

That's one interpretation.
6:21 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh, THAT video. Have you seen it, lyn? Nef? Lil?
6:22 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i wouldn't trust the zeitgeist video, because it uses a lot of rhetoric to get the message across. but the premise is solid
6:22 pm
Nef

I haven't seen it, TO; but I'm trying to watch it in-between words right now
6:23 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i almost want to say that its not an interpretation molly, it coincides too much to be a coincidence

6:36 pm
Nef

VY, I don't think it's nice to challenge another person's core beliefs. Everyone here has their own views and beliefs about religion (or lack of it); politics and religion are 2 subjects not really suitable (to me, anyway) to this chat room. Most people come to chat because of their love of this game and grow to be friends here; we all enjoy it and have common bonds. It's okay to have differing opinions; don't try to "convert" others to your way of thinking
6:36 pm

Hi TO.x
6:38 pm
VYCanisMajoris

but truth is truth nef. I'm not trying to convert, just injecting truth in the vast field of confusion. nobody can explain why they believe what they do, they were just told to. start asking what the heck its all about and you'll draw the same conclusions as every scientist without even being told
6:38 pm
lilliann

i agree nef. i actually typed out majority of what you said nef but then deleted it as people were ignoring it so i thougt i should :)

VY, that's YOUR opinion. Please remember that.
6:40 pm

FIREWORKS! :-)
6:40 pm

makes me so upset that people as friendly as you guys are that ignorant. nef, its more than an opinion, its backed by evidence

Belief and faith have little to do with scientific facts.

therefore its likely to be wrong
6:41 pm
lilliann

i deleted what i said as if you reply, these people just keep going on so i thought better of it.i have my own beliefs, i don't need to be preached upon
6:41 pm
Jacula

VY - I think that point is that this is NOT the place to discuss it. Some of us may agree with you and some of us may not, but Babblechog isn't the place for it.
6:41 pm
VYCanisMajoris

but why do you believe what you do?
6:41 pm

how did a mention of a bank holiday lead to this crap? I just want to find words. It is what I'm here for.

6:43 pm

so i'll just cater to the emotions--as opposed to truth; again--and say that you are all not ignorant even tho you do not provide reasoning for subjective belief in the face of scientific evidence

Lizlin

Is giving the bumps just a UK thing?
6:58 pm
MollyL

That's pretty cool. Our banks don't close for Pagan festival days.
6:59 pm
Jacula

Lizlin - re 'the bumps' - maybe it is. Never thought about it before.
6:59 pm
Nef

OMG, lilli! NO!!! We always got spankings , a smack on the butt for every year.
6:59 pm
MollyL

Don't trust Smores ganache. It doesn't have sugar or dairy in it. : P

6:59 pm

Smores recipes look good

Spankings? Now that IS odd. *chuckles*
7:00 pm
Lizlin

Spankings - chuckles with Jac :)

MollyL

Which recipe? She has a whole cookbook in her profile.

7:03 pm

I was just wondering about birthday bumps and looked it up. The paragraph entitled 'Punches' deals with the subject.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki\n/Birthday_customs_and_celebrations
7:03 pm
MollyL

The bumps sound like a great way to dislocate limbs.

72 Temple Owl

7:03 pm

Jacula

peri - en6 and verb form 7 means to enslave.
7:04 pm

Okay that is weird. Why does posting regular

7:05 pm
bichon

7:05 pm

liz - te6 and plural 7 - British term for £10.
7:06 pm
72 Temple Owl

hey trif
7:07 pm
Jacula

I'd delete the offending post if I could but we still don't have an edit/delete facility on here. The problem should resolve after a number of posts.
7:07 pm
lilliann

well as long as there is wine and crisps in the pb, i'll be fine :)
7:07 pm
Trifioso

hey TO!
7:08 pm

I think we were supposed to get all of those things on the new-style Babble promised a couple of years ago, but it never happened in the end.
7:09 pm
smores

lol..and the ignore
7:09 pm
Jacula

I think big urls or overlarge photos cause the problem.
7:09 pm
72 Temple Owl

not co4 effective, i would think, at this pt
7:10 pm
lilliann

it's like 'give us a clue now' as in try and guess what people are saying.oh great now the chat has gone even wider!! :)
7:10 pm
MollyL

In order to have upgrades like that on a regular
basis, a board has to have yearly membership fees.
Otherwise, the board owner would go into debt.
7:11 pm
lilliann

i would like to be able to delete or edit, even after i've said something
7:11 pm
Nef

for a short while all of the male and female symbols disappeared for me. Did anyone else have that happen besides me?
7:11 pm
Jacula

How's it got wider? It's not changed for me at all.
7:11 pm
Lizlin

Back to normal now!
7:11 pm
bichon

male and female symbols? I don't recall that
7:12 pm
Nef

now may chat is normals width and in looks
7:12 pm
Jacula

Nef - nope.
7:12 pm
MollyL

We just ran the long url off the board. Tiny url from now on please.
7:12 pm
lilliann

7:12 pm
Nef

bichon, the pink and purple "purses"
7:12 pm

*Hangs head in shame at not doing tinyurl because she really should know better.*
7:13 pm

yay, we are back to normal. doing a dance....
7:13 pm

7:13 pm
MollyL

There are several glitchy things that happen here since the upgrade to the new server. Like, every morning at 6AM EST, the board goes off line for three minutes.
7:13 pm
bichon

When were those. I've been here about 5 or 6 years
7:14 pm
smores

"joins lilli in dance"
7:14 pm
MollyL

When were what, Bich?
7:14 pm
72 Temple Owl

those are tbs in the recipe.nt tsps, smores?
7:14 pm
Jacula

Bichon - they've been here for years. Those of us that were on line when Dr_G put them on called them 'handbags' or 'purses' because we didn't at first see that they were supposed to be pink, blue or grey people.
7:15 pm
lilliann

i'm enjoying our dance smores, i'm twirling you at the moment :0
7:15 pm
smores

yes TO
7:15 pm
Nef

between your name and your countries' flag, there is a symbol there. It's the head and shoulders of a person; and denotes the sex (although there are some grey ones too
7:15 pm
bichon

The male/female symbols. Ive been here going on 7 years
7:15 pm
MollyL

They look like winter hats to me.
7:15 pm
72 Temple Owl

you mean the pocketbooks? :)
7:15 pm
bichon

I have *never* seen them. What's missing here?
7:15 pm
Jacula

Bobble hats, Molly. Yes, I can see that too.
7:15 pm
smores

weeeee....
7:16 pm
72 Temple Owl

thanks smore, off to kitchen i go
7:16 pm
Trifioso

my mum is here with me tonight, and we are watching the red sox game, and she is CRACKING ME UP. Firstly, she insists on saying, "ugh, they are playing TexASS" and then giggling like a schoolgirl.
7:16 pm
Lizlin

I've only ever seen them as male /female symbols but now I see hats!
7:16 pm
MollyL

Bich, you don't see a pink symbol between your name and your flag?
7:16 pm
Jacula

bichon - you've got a pink one.
7:16 pm
72 Temple Owl

no, definitely pocketbooks yep.
7:16 pm
bichon

I never noticed that they were different colors. And some people don't have them
7:16 pm
Trifioso

secondly, the game has been on for maybe ten minutes, and she is complaining that they haven't done ANY thing yet.
7:16 pm
72 Temple Owl

lol trif
7:16 pm
Trifioso

when my oldest daughter was little, she asked me what the purses next to our names meant....
7:16 pm
Jacula

Trif - that's mums for you!
7:17 pm
Nef

LOL, Trifi!!
7:17 pm
Trifioso

I never noticed they looked like little purses, but to a little girl, what doesn't?
7:17 pm
Jacula

:-)
7:17 pm
smores

lol...always saw them as head and shoulders until little purses / hats were mentioned a while back
7:17 pm
MollyL

I don't know how you don't get one. Not choosing male or female in your account settings usually gives you a grey one (androgenous)
7:18 pm
lilliann

hang on a minute, are people talking about the shoulders and head next to the flags?
7:18 pm
Trifioso

yes
7:19 pm
MollyL

Yes, the head and shoulders, purse, hat things.
: D
7:19 pm
lilliann

if so, what has that got to do with a purse, it looks like the top half of a person to me anyway :) saying that, it's like the butterfly splats on a page that you have to say that they look like something
7:20 pm
lilliann

we all have different views :)
7:20 pm
MollyL

<---Wishes she had used "butterfly splats" in her term paper on Rorscharch.
7:20 pm
smores

that what makes things interesting :)
7:20 pm
Lizlin

Purse being US speak for handbag!
7:21 pm
lilliann

i meant the ink splats that look like butterflies or whatever
7:21 pm
bichon

funny, now that you mention it, it could look like a purse
7:21 pm
Trifioso

"butterfly splats" is going on my list of potential punk rock band names
7:21 pm
bichon

I call it a pocketbook, but less often purse
7:21 pm
lilliann

Rorscharch?
7:21 pm
MollyL

Oh Lord, here we go. Purse, pocketbook, handbag, clutch.
7:22 pm
smores

haha...nice Trif....I like it :)
7:22 pm
MollyL

<---Wants to be informed when Trif joins a punk rock band.
7:22 pm
lilliann

actually now people have said purses and hats, i now see it :)
7:22 pm
Jacula

Punk rock band name. Yes, lol.
7:23 pm
bichon

Molly, great photo in your profile
7:23 pm
MollyL

Rorschach (I typoed) is the test you were referring to with the ink blots.
7:23 pm
Jacula

Lil - butterfly splats? I really don't see that.
7:23 pm
Trifioso

oh, and here's something fun, for those who might enjoy it: my friend Steven and his daughter invented a BRILLIANT car game: Whenever you see an Escape car, you have to be the first to yell "TARDIS" - as Escapes look small, but are bigger on the inside
7:23 pm
lilliann

glad i could help with a punk rock band name :)
7:23 pm
rururocks

is it safe to enter the chat/

Um - what's an Escape car?
7:23 pm
Trifioso

always for you, ruru dear
7:24 pm
Lizlin

Hi Ru :)
7:24 pm
MollyL

People are really gaga over this Dr. Who stuff.
7:24 pm
Lizlin

As jac said, what's an Escape car?
7:24 pm
Trifioso

its a Ford model, jacula
7:24 pm
lilliann

ofcourse it is ru, if you have a handbag, bobble hat and can see the meaning in ink splats :)
7:24 pm
lilliann

what's an escape car?
7:25 pm
Trifioso

see below
7:25 pm
Lizlin

A new car - being launched / was launched as Ford Kuga in UK - just googled it!
7:25 pm
lilliann

aye, i've just seen it trif.chat went slow
7:26 pm
lilliann

never heard of it liz, will have to google
7:26 pm
Nef

slow??? I can't keep up anymore!
7:26 pm
Lizlin

Finally killed the c's!
7:26 pm
MollyL

Kuga? Sounds like how they say cougar in Boston.
7:26 pm
Jacula

Ah! I know what it is now. Calling a car an escape car could make it sound like something you could excape to the country in but, to me, sounds like something set up to have an accident to prove you can escape from it easily. Or is that just me??
7:27 pm
Trifioso

okay, so - see a Kuga, yell TARDIS
7:27 pm
Lizlin

Dunno, Molly. Just googled and looked for UK equivalent to Ford Escape
7:28 pm
lilliann

it's just basically a big saloon car, nowt special
7:28 pm
Jacula

To be honest, Trif, most of today's cars all look the same to me. They don't have the indivduality and personality that cars had up to the late 1970s.
7:28 pm
MollyL

A saloon car? Does that come with dancing girls and guys with guns?
7:29 pm
MollyL

Oh AMEN Jac. They all look the same to me too.
7:29 pm
Jacula

Molly - a saloon car is a basic family car here in Uk with no hatchback etc.
7:29 pm
lilliann

it's trying to be a sporty 4x4 come people carrier and it none of them
7:30 pm
MollyL

Car design was ruined by aerodynamics.
7:30 pm
Jacula

The Ford Kuga/Escape is apparently and SUV/4-wheel drive off road type big gas-guzzling car that no one really needs to drive unless they live in the back of beyond.
7:30 pm
lilliann

i think it is ugly
7:30 pm
Jacula

Excuse lack of punctuation and bad typing. I hate this sort of car.
7:31 pm
Jacula

Molly - I agree. CAD design has removed all originality.
7:31 pm
Trifioso

amuse yourselves by yelling whenever you see one :)
7:32 pm
lilliann

i don't think we'll be seeing many on the road, well i hope not trif
7:32 pm
Jacula

Trif - Nah! I'd rather yell Tardis when I do actually see a blue police phone box, like I did in Scotland a few months ago.
7:32 pm
Trifioso

well, you do have the advantage on me there, jacula
7:33 pm
MollyL

I only yell when I see one of those stupid looking smart cars. I keep thinking someone let their kids out of the back yard and onto the street in their kiddie car.
7:34 pm
lilliann

apparently this ugly car is nearly £21,000 to buy
7:34 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh my, i am watching an old movie i've never seen before - 1933 alice in wonderland. what a riot!
7:34 pm

Yep - in Edinburgh, Lil. I took a photo.

hubby doesn't drive them anymore, he's self employed so will if needed but at the moment drives coaches and has a coach that you won't see many of in the uk
7:42 pm
72 Temple Owl

actually he may have been both
7:42 pm
Jacula

Molly - Chris Hoy old? He's only 37.
7:42 pm
lilliann

but it's not his, the guy he sub contracts to
7:42 pm
MollyL

A song which everyone and their brother has covered, including Annie Lennox. : O
7:42 pm
lilliann

chris hoy has now retired
7:43 pm
lilliann

i love annie lennox
7:43 pm
MollyL

No, the man in the song, who is lying by the side of the road.
7:43 pm
Jacula

He has retired from his sport, lil, but he's not old.
7:43 pm
Jacula

Oh, yes, re the Neil Young song. I knew it rang a bell.
7:44 pm
Jacula

Lil - I love Annie Lennox, too.
7:44 pm
lilliann

he's definitely not old jac. i only knew that he'd retired because i watched 'question of sport'
7:44 pm
Jacula

Lil - what's different about your hubby's coach?
7:44 pm
lilliann

i liked it when she was part of the eurythemics
7:45 pm
Jacula

Lil - did you see Annie L's 'Who Do You Think You Are?' programme? It was very interesting.
7:45 pm
lilliann

hang on and i will get an url or whatever it is for it.i'm not good with computors, plus i can't remember the name of the coach
7:45 pm
lilliann

no, i missed that
7:45 pm
Lizlin

It was a really good one, Jac. I agree.
7:46 pm
Jacula

Lil - mind you use tinyurl before posting!! :-)
7:46 pm

Wait a minute, now it's a coach? What happened to lorry? : P

7:47 pm
72 Temple Owl

let me add to the madness by saying that lewis carroll must have dropped acid
7:47 pm
Jacula

Lizlin - I like most of the programmes in that series. Obviously, they only follow the stories they know will be interesting but I think 'ordinary people's' stories are also interesting. Doubt there'll ever be a TV series about them though.
7:48 pm
MollyL

Opium TO, he took it for his "migraines"
7:48 pm
Lizlin

I like the series,w hen they go back as far as they can but less so when the focus is just on one ancestor.
7:48 pm
Jacula

TO - Lewis Carroll, in common with many other authors of the time, was an opium addict.
7:48 pm
Lizlin

I don't think that the Aussie series is so good.
7:49 pm
72 Temple Owl

he was DEFINITELY on SOMETHING. as was the director of this movie.
7:49 pm
Jacula

Molly - a coach is like a bus, maybe you would call it a tour bus?
7:49 pm
Jacula

Liz - haven't seen thre Aussie version.
7:50 pm
Lizlin

I wouldn't bother!
7:50 pm
MollyL

I've always thought the Alice In Wonderland stories were weird.
7:50 pm
Jacula

The US version is quite good, Liz.
7:51 pm
Lizlin

Now I haven't seen that one - though there have been a couple of Americans on the UK series - especially liked Jerry Springer.
7:51 pm
lilliann

jac, put in starliner coaches in the search engine and you'll get it
7:52 pm

I've seen them go past, lil. Will check it out now.
7:53 pm

there aren't many in this country and hubby says people stand in the road to look and take photos of and other drivers want to get on it and look
7:53 pm

£30,000 for the basic chassis, lil. Still not quite as much as my ex-hub charges for fire engines.
7:55 pm

Does anyone need any more clues, btw?
7:55 pm
MollyL

Nope
7:55 pm

motorcoach?
8:04 pm
lilliann

he doesn't drive a bus, it's a coach, there is a difference here aswell
8:04 pm
MollyL

I'm still trying to figure out how family cars got labeled saloon cars. : D
8:05 pm
lilliann

a bus goes around towns and villages picking up people
8:05 pm
Lizlin

Fireworks! Always happy to find a nice simple group of words at the end, which I've just missed!
8:05 pm
Jacula

It's all so confusing, isn't it? Let's all smoke opium so we don't care. (Only kidding!)
8:05 pm
Jacula

Well done on the *~*~*, Liz.
8:06 pm
lilliann

a coach looks different and it takes people on day trips and holidays and has a toilet normally.buses don't and you pay to go on a bus
8:06 pm
MollyL

Of course if you do a Google image search on Coach, all you get are purses/handbags/pocketbooks/clutches.
8:06 pm
lilliann

wtg liz!! :)
8:06 pm
MollyL

We have buses here, and bus lines that have bathrooms on them.
8:06 pm
Lizlin

ty - off out into the sun. Thanks for some fun chat this morning. Enjoy your evenings / nights :)
8:07 pm
Jacula

Really Molly? I'd have thought you'd have got hard-face men and women ready to make you exercise until you dropped dead.
8:07 pm
72 Temple Owl

a car with a bar...now that's an invention
8:07 pm
Jacula

'Bye Liz. Have fun.x
8:07 pm
lilliann

bye liz, enjoy the suna nd tc
8:08 pm
72 Temple Owl

no jacs, t hose are trainers
8:08 pm
Jacula

TO - all the stretch limos here in UK have an inbuilt min-bar.
8:08 pm
72 Temple Owl

what are trainers in the UK?
8:09 pm
MollyL

Did anyone catch the bit in the movie Fallen where John Goodman had a beer bottle opener mounted to his dashboard? That made me laugh.
8:09 pm
lilliann

they can be running shoes TO
8:09 pm
72 Temple Owl

no. that is one intense movie.
8:09 pm
Jacula

TO - trainers can be people who coach you in the gym or for a sport, but the term is most frequently used for sport shoes.
8:09 pm
lilliann

or people who train others to do sport
8:10 pm
MollyL

It is an intense movie. I didn't realize how intense until I started watching it and I wasn't in the mood for another "drunk story".
8:10 pm
Jacula

I LOVE Babble - it's the best thing ever for sorting out all these differences of language amongst 'English speaking people'.
8:10 pm
MollyL

But of course, I kept watching because it was Denzel.
8:11 pm
Jacula

No, not seen 'Fallen'.
8:11 pm
lilliann

and there are definitely loads of differences jac
8:12 pm
72 Temple Owl

donald sutherland is one spooky dude.
8:12 pm
MollyL

I'm still not over Fanny : O
8:12 pm
lilliann

lol molly :)
8:12 pm
72 Temple Owl

uh oh, i don't know that one.
8:12 pm
Jacula

There ARE, lil. But the internet gives us the chance to actually ask, share, laugh and exchange. That's brilliant.
8:12 pm
MollyL

Oy, I meant Flight, not Fallen.
8:12 pm
lilliann

i don't know how you remember all of this molly
8:13 pm
MollyL

TO, apparently in the UK, Fanny means women's genitals.
8:13 pm
lilliann

oh i agree, i just don't understand that we are all suppose to speak english and yet we have so many words that have different meanings and spelt differently
8:14 pm
Jacula

Molly - fanny means female sexual bits here, not bum/ass/arse like it does in US.
8:14 pm
MollyL

So if you ever visit there, do NOT refer to giving someone a pat on the fanny (to us it means butt)
8:14 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh, you mean woman bits? do women have bits or do only men have bits???
8:14 pm
lilliann

molly knows what it means jac, i told her a while back on here and she's never forgotten
8:14 pm
MollyL

Jac, I think we are having a 7 second delay.
8:15 pm
lilliann

we call them bits here TO
8:15 pm
rururocks

*looks down at Bits*
8:15 pm
72 Temple Owl

i think bits is the funniest
8:15 pm
lilliann

you don't have a fanny ru! :)
8:15 pm
Jacula

Misunderstandings begin wars, which is why we should all take advantage of the opportunities afforded here to gain understanding. (Other than people trying to bludgeon their ideas onto us, of course.)
8:15 pm
MollyL

I bet men like the term bits as much as they like the word premature.
8:16 pm
lilliann

we don't call them bits so much now but years ago we did as we always have to be correct being english you know!! :)
8:17 pm
lilliann

we don't call men's bits,i nearly said what we do, but i don't want to lower the tone
8:18 pm
Jacula

I'm tempted to post a link to a video of a UK comedian, Les Dawson doing a sketch of women talking about 'women's stuff' using nods and winks and half-said words. But I don't want to make the chog go wide again.
8:18 pm
MollyL

<---Wants a saloon car
8:18 pm
lilliann

aye, never say pat on the fanny here, you'll get slapped :)
8:18 pm
Jacula

LOL, lil. 'Tis true!
8:20 pm
MollyL

Swear to God, if I ever visit the UK I am going to become a selective mute.
8:20 pm
Jacula

Molly - believe me you do not want a boring car with no all-singing and dancing stuff included. It's a car that will seat a family of 4 and their possible luggage for a holiday you can drive to in no more than 4 hours.
8:20 pm
lilliann

you molly...mmm, like pigs fly :)
8:21 pm
Jacula

*Is tempted to invite Molly to visit*
8:21 pm
lilliann

i would love her to visit jac, especially up here, she wouldn't understand anyone :)
8:21 pm
MollyL

I have this great saloon girl costume, complete with fish net hose. I need a saloon car to go with. : D
8:22 pm
periwinkle

and where do you where that, Molls?
8:22 pm
lilliann

and you would get away with saying alot up here, as long as you drink and have a good time
8:22 pm
Jacula

I've got a great series of photos of me in that kind of get-up, Molly. Taken at a brithday party back in the 1980s.
8:22 pm
periwinkle

help with first se6/18 pls.
8:22 pm
lilliann

it wouldn't go with the car molly
8:23 pm
Jacula

Lil - We'll come and stay nearby and visit when you have Molly to stay. It would be fun.
8:23 pm
lilliann

i want to see a picture of molly wearing it :)
8:23 pm
MollyL

Oh but my saloon car is going to have swinging wooden doors, a bar and a honky tonk piano. : D
8:24 pm
lilliann

both the first se6's have double cons peri
8:24 pm
lilliann

it would jac
8:24 pm
periwinkle

so they do, ty lil
8:25 pm
lilliann

you wouldn't get all that in a saloon car molly :D
8:25 pm
Jacula

If Molly wants wood on her saloon car doors, I guess she needs an old 'half-timbered' car like a Morris Traveller or a Mini Traveller.
8:25 pm
lilliann

would they fit?
8:25 pm
lilliann

i remember morris minors
8:26 pm
lilliann

yw peri
8:27 pm
Jacula

peri - the first se6 ends with what you catch fish in and sounds like US government thing. 2nd se6 has a different last vowel and sounds like thr US southern version of the word.
8:27 pm
periwinkle

I have them, ty Jac
8:27 pm
Jacula

y/w, Peri.xx
8:27 pm
periwinkle

Jacula, you are really good at slingo. You have beat me at every game so far
8:28 pm
MollyL

Yeah well here they were just called Woodies, but now we are opening another kettle of fish.
8:28 pm
Jacula

sorry about that, peri!
8:28 pm
rururocks

isn't it a british saying keep a stiff upper lip?
8:29 pm
lilliann

oh, no, it means something to do with a man's appendage here
8:29 pm
periwinkle

no worries. you have probably been playing longer than I have. it is a fun game
8:29 pm
lilliann

yes ru
8:29 pm
lilliann

lmao
8:29 pm
Jacula

Molly - woodies here in UK means something else entirely - to do with male members and their 'readiness' or 'eagerness'.
8:30 pm
lilliann

molly, you have a filthy mind, even if you don't know it...brit wise anyway
8:30 pm
MollyL

The funniest thing I have ever read on Babble is the "other" meaning for Morning Glory. : D
8:30 pm
periwinkle

I did not read that Molly.
8:30 pm
MollyL

Yes, it means that here too. Hence the mention of another kettle of fish.
8:30 pm
Jacula

Molly - what? Morning hard-on 'cos need a wee desperately?
8:31 pm
lilliann

morning glory, i've never heard that one
8:31 pm
rururocks

*says two hail mary's*
8:31 pm
MollyL

L, we have been told that we all have gutter minds, haven't you heard?
8:31 pm
periwinkle

me either
8:31 pm
Jacula

Have you not, lil? Even though married to a trucker? I am surprised.
8:32 pm
MollyL

I thought she was married to a coachman. You all are not playing fair.
8:32 pm
Jacula

Lol re the hail marys, but ruru, can you please stop using that icon?
8:32 pm
MollyL

What IS it with everyone complaining about Ru's icon?
8:32 pm
periwinkle

ditto re the icon, ruru. we all got the message
8:32 pm
lilliann

no, i've never heard of morning glory.i know it as something else but am too polite to say :)
8:33 pm
periwinkle

pls say, lil
8:33 pm
Jacula

Molly - I'm not going to get into that. Youn know what it's about.
8:33 pm
lilliann

believe me molly, if anyone's mind is in the gutter, it's mine :)
8:33 pm
MollyL

Wait, something other than a man's early morning pop up?
8:33 pm
Jacula


I think Oasis sang about Morning Glory (a plant) if I recall.
8:34 pm
lilliann

no peri, i was brought up to be polite and i don't want people suddenly appearing on here having a go
8:34 pm
periwinkle

ok
8:34 pm
lilliann

my husband does drives coaches but not horse bound and also trucks but at the moment he drives coaches
8:35 pm
periwinkle

fw. now going to watch Flea Market Flip. cu all later
8:35 pm
lilliann

yay!wtg peri!! :)
8:35 pm
lilliann

they did sing morning glory jac
8:36 pm
MollyL

Wow Ru, time to go for puppies and kitties I guess.
8:36 pm
Jacula

See you on FB later, peri. xx
8:36 pm
lilliann

bye peri and tc :)
8:36 pm
flosey

need a clue for the first te6/18, please?
8:37 pm
Jacula

flosey - Brit term for £10.
8:37 pm
72 Temple Owl

po 8pls?
8:37 pm
lilliann

reading back. what is wrong with ru's icon?
8:37 pm
MollyL

Apparently people don't like being reminded of the Nancyboy farce.
8:37 pm
lilliann

po8, to mail a letter and flames
8:38 pm
flosey

thanks Jac, but not familiar with Brit money
8:38 pm
Jacula

lil - it's of an actor/model and not of the person it was said to be.
8:38 pm
flosey

ok, nm, got it
8:38 pm
lilliann

well, i suppose i can understand that, but at the end of the day we were all fooled and we need to be reminded how easy it can be
8:38 pm
MollyL

More than a fiver Flosey.
8:38 pm
72 Temple Owl

ty
8:39 pm
MollyL

I agree L.
8:40 pm
Jacula

Molly - none of us like being reminded of the whole damned farce, never mind the Nancyboy part of it. It did untold damage to the babble community and chog. I hope the orchestrator of it all is very pleased with his or herself for that and I hope they pay for it in the next life.
8:40 pm
lilliann

i know jac but i only learnt recently and it was a shock to me, probably because i think the best of everyone but i've learn't differently on here which upset me a bit because 99% of people here are true people with hearts of gold
8:41 pm
Jacula

|t wasn't a shock to me, lil, because, though I got shot down in flames at times, I did urge caution.
8:41 pm
rururocks

prays for the 1 %
8:41 pm
lilliann

jac, they aren't going to be bothered, they will have now moved on to the next chat
8:42 pm
Jacula

Nuff said. Time to let it rest.
8:42 pm
MollyL

I think something like that only does as much "damage" as people allow it to.
8:42 pm
MollyL

Oh, I guess our 12 minutes are up.
8:43 pm
Jacula

I'm off now. See you all next grid, maybe.
8:43 pm
72 Temple Owl

well that is all well and good for an individual but all people are different, and in this case group dynamics applied
8:43 pm
72 Temple Owl

by way of explanation. am more concerned about last 10 words
8:44 pm
lilliann

well, i hope it is 99% of people ru, that is why i speak to people on here and open up a bit as i like to think that we are all truthful and want to chat with others like minded.i just must be too gullible
8:44 pm
rururocks

what does that mean TO.. I'm not following you
8:45 pm
72 Temple Owl

re molly's view. i respect it but think there is more to it when it comes to a group, community and ecosystem, if you will. that's all. no hidden agenda. just desparation to finish.
8:46 pm
rururocks

oh ..ok thanks.. I wasn't following that
8:47 pm
MollyL

I think it applies to a group or community as well. If you don't bounce back from something, you give it the power over you it was searching for.
8:49 pm
MollyL

The group dynamic here often seems to be to ignore the elephant in the room. And having been brought up in a dysfunctional family, I can tell you that's not a healthy way to deal with things. Just my opinion.
8:50 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes. but some deep damage was done and then you are back to the resilience of the individual. at times, folks posess varying degrees of ego strength. i hear you molly, and respect your views. ignoring trolls has been SOP here,and it does seem to work.. but sometimes, depending on the entity, conrontation works as well. you really can't tell most times which is best.
8:51 pm
lilliann

at the end of the day, i've learnt not to be so gullible, learn from it, but still enjoy this game and the community. my hubby would have known as he's more street wise so to speak and always tells me i'm too nice, he always knows when something isn't right. i just want to see the best in people, it might not be right but i don't want to lose that or i won't be the person i am but i need to become stronger and not let people walk all over me
8:52 pm
MollyL

Okay, I guess I am not aware of the deep damage you are referring to. And I agree about the varying degrees of ego strength.
8:52 pm
rururocks

I'm just a Jun Masimoto fan now
8:53 pm
72 Temple Owl

a discussion is just that. not an attempt to persuade but just to surface another thought or side of the issue. sometimes i don't see that side until it's pointed out to me.
8:53 pm
lilliann

but then there are times that i won't let anyone walk over me or my family, it must be the gemini in me....
8:54 pm
VYCanisMajoris

do you actually believe in astrology too?
8:54 pm
VYCanisMajoris

oh boy
8:55 pm
72 Temple Owl

one thing i know: this grid is too long. diving in for the kill
8:55 pm
lilliann

me too TO
8:55 pm
Deutsch

I noticed the difference. I was away for a time and missed the whole nancyboy drama. When I returned, I could read the difference. It took a long time for me to figure out what had happened. Still not in the loop, but okay.
8:55 pm
MollyL

Oh how nice. Now we have two people who only enter chat to insult people. Just what we needed.
8:56 pm
VYCanisMajoris

you're misreading me because im not trying to insult anyone
8:56 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i won't last long here anyways
8:56 pm
72 Temple Owl

deutsch, that is interesting.

Molly, if that was in my direction, I do apologize.

Hi wht.
9:04 pm
lilliann

by the way majoris, anyone is welcome to play, just because we chat, doesn't mean we own babble,it's just that some people including me don't like other people's beliefs pushed on them
9:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

hello wht
9:04 pm
VYCanisMajoris

im not pushing any beliefs on anyone
9:04 pm
stidgmere

Hi wlki.
9:05 pm

Do you mean I don't own Babble? I must read the fine print of my going pro contract.
9:05 pm
welki

<-- can vouch that VY is an okay guy. danged internet chat can be dicey, things come out looking in different ways than they're intended
9:05 pm
VYCanisMajoris

on top of the reasoning behind my assertions, i was trying to get you to explain why you believe christianity--and most recently why you believe in astrology.. to believe something it has has to have a foundation of rationality, otherwise it's thought without thought, if you will
9:06 pm
MollyL

Well earlier we were all told that we are not intelligent, but I guess that's okay.
9:06 pm
welki

by VY? ut oh *backing out of chat* LOL
9:06 pm
torgone

Let me explain to you why you think the way you do ..
9:06 pm
VYCanisMajoris

ignorance does not mean low intelligence, it simply means denying of or not aware of truth or other information
9:07 pm
lilliann

i wasn't saying you were i was just trying to say, maybe not come across as you are...you've just proved my point. i don't talk about religion and as astrology i was joking and i'm not getting into it
9:07 pm
stidgmere

Do you believe everything you read? Whoever says I'm not intelligent obviously has less on the ball than I do.
9:07 pm
lilliann

oh god, why did i bother!!
9:08 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i think we all lack the understanding of ignorance--again, that doesn't mean low intelligence, it means lack of exposure
9:08 pm
lilliann

hi gmere :))

9:09 pm

I'm about as exposed as I'm going to be so just don't look. Hi dear TO and lilliann. I think my powers of soothing speech are going to be too little too late for this chat.
9:09 pm
VYCanisMajoris

but not to worry, my presence will be lacking in a few days here.. I'm just sampling the fresh waters here
9:09 pm
welki

hi, owl!
9:09 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i shall let you continue mingling as though my interruption never occurred
9:10 pm
rururocks

I think it's interesting what you are saying VY
9:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

say hi to me in fb
9:10 pm
rururocks

by and large religion doesn't come up here very often
9:10 pm
rururocks

unless it is a jest or a joke
9:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

the last time it did, there was a huge fight and the creator smited those involved.
9:11 pm
VYCanisMajoris

to me, its a serious issue that can only be resolved by reasoning. but every time i try, i get nowhere, not only because I'm forceful and direct, but because its difficult to get through to people when they've been accustomed to one particular mode of thought throughout their lives
9:11 pm
lilliann

there is a reason for that ru because religion and politics always cause arguments
9:12 pm
rururocks

wow.. I missed the smiting
9:12 pm
welki

probably doesn't help that you're brand new here, VY - we're a pretty cautious bunch lately, lots of trolls stirring the pot
9:12 pm
rururocks

we could have used some smiting this morning
9:12 pm
welki

I have been smitten once or twice :)
9:12 pm
VYCanisMajoris

trolls in what sense?
9:13 pm
lilliann

i'm not being funny(as in rude) majoris but this is a word game. we chat about this, that and the other but we're not talking about how the iniverse is made. we just like to know the differences in language, food etc around the world
9:13 pm
welki

folks who create personae and instigate, insult, debase - are just general pains in the ass
9:14 pm
welki

used to be a time when there'd be serious discussion here, but not so much anymore
9:14 pm

9:14 pm
lilliann

where are you from majoris?
9:14 pm
VYCanisMajoris

thats alright to keep the integrity of the structure of genial conversation afloat here, but to also consider discussion of more serious issues that require careful thought and reasoning--without the intention of offending or insulting anyone-- is also important
9:14 pm
lilliann

wb jill :)
9:14 pm
VYCanisMajoris

its just usually people back away the moment religion or politics is uttered
9:14 pm

hey jilly - nice weather coming, finally!

9:16 pm

i mean, i might be curious about such issues but i would not take them up with the person in line with me at the checkout counter. important to YOU. you don't seem to ge that you are a majority of one.

9:16 pm

Congrats flosey!!
9:16 pm
lilliann

we don't want to get into serious discussions vyc.this is suppose to be fun and we learn a bit about others and our countries and we're happy. that's it and have clues given to us for the words for the game we are here for

first impressions are everything, when many times they can be wrong
9:17 pm
MollyL

And this particular chain of conversation started when a nasty comment was made to L about believing in astrology.
9:17 pm

9:46 pm
torgone

Darn. I needed someone to explain to me how ignorant I am ..

10:01 pm
lilliann

i'm not nice :)
10:02 pm
gremlinn

I think the best scoring rule would be a mixture of word length, plus a bonus for uniqueness (maybe a little extra for "first to find" as well like tangle)
10:02 pm
rururocks

you are lillian.. and I like that you don't take crap from anyone either
10:02 pm

Jillyjill

"Tony Tony come around, somethings lost that must be found." Never has failed me :)
10:58 pm
Nef

I'm very relieved. He just got these tiny things in February; through the VA. He lost part of his hearing when he was in the Navy (Many years ago); but his hearing went down hill fast this past year. He wouldn't have gone to the VA except that some vet. rep. told him he should since his hearing loss started there.
10:59 pm
stidmama

glad you found it -- those little aids are expensive! But they seem to work pretty well for the folks I know
10:59 pm
Nef

and these aids are smaller than his Aunts were (and I thought those were small!
11:00 pm

and I taught 6th graders today for a little bit (LOVE that age!) and Monday I get to be in my friend's class with 5th graders. Then I will take the rest of next week "off" to start making decisions on the interior details (type of heating, lighting water) so the contractors have a good idea of what to quote.
