6:00 am

Simppa

So how is everyone's hunt for words going?

6:01 am

bojazz

slowly, slowly

6:01 am

rubyfoo

this is not an easy grid

6:02 am

Simppa

Yep, I haven't started yet, but it certainly looks difficult

6:03 am

grannyrose

simppa, ruby...was a grid which flowed quite nicely

6:04 am

grannyrose

most difficult for me?

6:05 am

rubyfoo

phantom: chortle

6:07 am

grannyrose

re6, re + ***n miller + cross letter

6:08 am

6:12 am

rubyfoo

6:12 am

grannyrose

bojazz, you still working? what do you do?

6:13 am

rubyfoo

I made a big bouquet of hydrangeas for the table outside onthe deck.

6:13 am

grannyrose

gorgeous, ruby...

6:13 am

rubyfoo

they are too big for indoors

6:14 am

grannyrose

yeah, ditto here...when they are in flower

6:15 am

rubyfoo

whoops, eited myself....

6:15 am

rubyfoo

I have pink ones, red and white ones, and two kinds of white ones. Only the pinks are open

6:16 am

rubyfoo

it's nice because they are on the side of the house, so are a "cutting garden"

6:16 am

Simppa

That sounds lovely, ruby

6:16 am

grannyrose

no blue ones? you may have to find some alum powder.

6:17 am

rubyfoo

I can't cut the roses because they are what make the garden pretty

6:17 am

rubyfoo

I tried that, but it's too much trouble to try and change theym

6:17 am

rubyfoo

I had one that was violet, but husband cut it down, thinking it was a weed

6:17 am

grannyrose

"lucky ruby" ours died...i think there was something in the water-table...

6:18 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, ruby.

6:18 am

rubyfoo

they need a lot of watering, but otherwise no care. Cutting them for bouquets is enough for pruning

6:18 am

rubyfoo

I think men can't be trusted in gardens

6:19 am

rubyfoo

they are OK for shlepping stuff, but not for more

6:19 am

grannyrose

i am with ruby on that...apologies to the men in babble chog.

6:20 am

rubyfoo

tant pis. They can't be bothered to learn the difference between good plants and weeds

6:21 am

grannyrose

lol, too true, ruby. but then...we are the ones who suffer...because they destroy our flowers.

6:21 am

rubyfoo

my handyman, in trying to make the shrubbery round, cut all the buds off the spirea!

6:22 am

rubyfoo

It's my own fault for not supervising enough

6:22 am

grannyrose

aagghhh, ruby...pity you can't fire him!!!

6:23 am

rubyfoo

but he instlled my scanner yesterday, so I shouldn't complain

6:25 am

grannyrose

yeah, i know...the plusses and the minusses...

6:25 am

rubyfoo

we used to use a real gardener, but he was waaaay too expensive

6:26 am

grannyrose

:( my roses leaves have turned yellow...i think it's because of all the rain...am i right?

6:27 am

rubyfoo

I am no expert' all I do is keep taking off the spent flowers and feed them twice a yer

6:32 am

grannyrose

ohhhh. 9:30pm here. eyelids very sleepy...have a good day, my dearest friend. hope burt behaves himself. xoxoxox

11:53 am

11:57 am

TraderKate

3:06 pm

joso

looks like plane crash may have no casualties

3:07 pm

stidmama

I am really hoping that will be true, joso

3:08 pm

stidmama

I was just reading earlier that there are many people unaccounted for in Quebec, though.

3:09 pm

joso

one death reported at the train crash, though some still missing. Hopefully all due to confusion caused by sudden evac

3:10 pm

stidmama

do they know why it derailed yet?

3:12 pm

joso

It's the school that bothers me the most, for so many reason, most deaths, deliberate act, kids.

3:12 pm

stidmama

BBC says that the fire was still going 12 hours later...

3:13 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, nbt, and what a day! makes me alsmot glad i don't live in a household where the tv is on all the time

3:13 pm

stidmama

yes, I don't understand what motivates anyone to target children... perhaps they think that it will cause parents to give in? But all it does is make us angry.

3:13 pm

stidmama

hey gwen

3:14 pm

stidmama

The TV wasn't on, I saw a fb note... *sigh*

3:14 pm

joso

the plane and train are truly unfortunate, the school is evil

3:14 pm

stidmama

some people on fb are saying they have accounted for all people who were on board.

3:15 pm

stidmama

agreed. Deliberate acts of violence. Evil and no excuse or reason can ever erase it.

3:41 pm

crosshair

Scientists believe heavy UV radiation has turned all the American flags on the moon white.

3:42 pm

uusue2

I read that the other day, crossy, wouldn't surprise me

3:44 pm

joso

it's left the russian flags alone?

3:45 pm

uusue2

what russian flags? Did they land one with one of their landers?

3:46 pm

uusue2

anyway, no, they will gradually bleach as well, depends on how long they've been up there

3:46 pm

crosshair

i have no idea on the russian flags or flags from micronesia or any others who stayed up there

3:47 pm

crosshair

as far as i know,there are no others:))

3:47 pm

crosshair

i imagine china will be next

3:48 pm

crosshair

russia however IS the only country to land a space vehicle on venus,joso:))

3:49 pm

joso

i see, the articles only seem to care about the american flags

3:49 pm

crosshair

their flags may be there.get a nice telescope and take a peek;))

3:50 pm

crosshair

well,i will not begrudge them a flag or two.they spent a pile of cash to get it there

3:52 pm

crosshair

if we ask nice,maybe when they are ready for the mars missions they will take a canadian flag with them.perhaps if we offer a new and improved canada arm

3:52 pm

uusue2

there you go :-0

3:52 pm

crosshair

:)))

3:53 pm

joso

no russian manned landings, but 6 unmanned. However no one seems to know if they put up any flags. I just assumed they would

3:53 pm

uusue2

I'd volunteer to take it personally but I think I am too old

3:53 pm

crosshair

yup.did not say manned.atmosphere is a tad rough for manned

3:54 pm

crosshair

though they did leave parts all over the place.i am sure some say made in ussr or made in russia:)

3:54 pm

uusue2

probably there were flags painted on their craft but I'd be surprised if they had a free-standing flag

3:54 pm

crosshair

or made in japan lol

3:55 pm

uusue2

the painted ones probably bleach out as well, I would think, but maybe not as fast (different kind of dye)

3:55 pm

crosshair

all these vehicles are a collection of ten million complicated parts put together by the lowest bidder;))

3:59 pm

crosshair

most likely the virgin phone gazillionare will hit mars first...wonder what roaming packages virgin mobile will offer for mars?

It's a trademark, which makes it a proper noun.

5:40 pm

Hello penquis!How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log

5:40 pm

Minveryork

Hello MolyL! How are you doing? Welcome back to the log.

5:41 pm

MollyL

Hi Min. Cute story about Min #2. : D

5:46 pm

Minveryork

Thank you MollyL!Have not done a story of clues in awhile.

5:48 pm

Soodle

Drive-By..... Molly, I made your lemonade today. I swear it wasn't my fault that an ' Undesirable element' happened to be present, and adulterated the end product! But a wonderful time was had by all, and your health was toasted! Slainte!

5:49 pm

Minveryork

I just reread my story and had to update it. I saw mistakes.

5:50 pm

Soodle

Hey Min :-)

5:50 pm

penquis

i am doing fine, thanks...

5:55 pm

MollyL

As previously stated, my lemonade is made to be adulterated.

5:57 pm

MollyL

Y'all will have to pardon Soodle, she had to dive back into the hoochade.

6:00 pm

Soodle

Au contraire!

6:01 pm

MollyL

Well then, praise God and pass the Poteen.

6:02 pm

Soodle

'Hoochade'. I think I might patent that name...,.

6:03 pm

Soodle

Unless Ms L has got there before me?

6:03 pm

Minveryork

Hello Soodle! How are you doing today? Did you finish grid?

6:04 pm

MollyL

It's all yours, consider it a gift. And remember me when you get rich from it.

6:04 pm

Minveryork

I read your icon Soodle! That is funny!Where did you get it?

6:07 pm

Minveryork

I found a picture of your icon on Google Images. I will have to steal that one to put on FaceBook!That is very hilarious!

6:13 pm

MollyL

My guess is that Soodle found that on Facebook.

6:20 pm

penquis

woohoo....i am done!

6:20 pm

penquis

nice to have a small grid for a change...

6:22 pm

Soodle

Yup! Facebook! Source of funny icons, & where I find out what my kids are up to!

6:27 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations penquis on your fireworks display! Hooray!

6:28 pm

penquis

thanks! :oD

6:32 pm

MollyL

I hate to break it to you Soodle, but if your kids have you as a friend on Facebook, they aren't posting the juicy stuff there. : P

6:46 pm

Minveryork

Good point MollyL!

6:47 pm

Minveryork

My sister-in-law's kids still posted racy things knowing their Mother had access to their FaceBook page.

6:50 pm

MollyL

I work with someone who says her niece's Facebook page looks like a hooker's page. Disturbing.

7:03 pm

rururocks

I guess that'd give you something to google or oogle in this case

7:22 pm

penquis

heh heh....my niece is happy she has boys, though they can post problematic things, too...

7:23 pm

penquis

so far, they don't have facebook accounts....

7:33 pm

MollyL

I've heard a lot of people, younger and older say that they are getting bored with Facebook.

7:48 pm

rururocks

facebored?

7:49 pm

MollyL

One of the funniest things I've read about Facebook...Facebook is like going to a friend's house and getting stuck watching home movies of their vacation for hours!

7:50 pm

rururocks

I am so glad I've never done the Facebook thing.. honestly

8:00 pm

MollyL

I have to hand it to Zuckerberg. He made millions off of shameless self promotion.

Any time off, Min?

8:48 pm

featherbee

8:48 pm

Minveryork

jesdraggon, got story posted in profile if you want to use it

8:48 pm

jesdraggon

TraderKate

8:54 pm

Scrabbler

Go, Jes, go.

8:54 pm

featherbee

scrabs, kate just mistook me for jes...or vice versa

8:54 pm

jesdraggon

8:55 pm

Scrabbler

OK, I will join in with my own confusion.

9:10 pm

TraderKate

how are the baby birds doing jess?

9:11 pm

jesdraggon

poorly. and no id.ea why

9:11 pm

jesdraggon

other than that i just don't have good luck with birds.

9:12 pm

MollyL

I admire Scrabs. She plays for the fun of finding words. Not to finish all the time.

9:12 pm

TraderKate

okay - wisdom of the crowds - i am about to sit down to a burger i just made... mayo, ketchup, and hp sauce with grape tomatoes and lettuce... garlic dill pickle on the burger or on the side???

9:13 pm

featherbee

i'll try to finish this one, only because it's so small. if it was bigger, i'd quit partway too.

9:13 pm

jesdraggon

no pickle at all, eew. Burger is better without it

9:13 pm

MollyL

Kate, be a big girl and make that decision all by yourself.
: D

9:13 pm

MollyL

And I agree with Jess.

9:14 pm

featherbee

hi molly

9:14 pm

TraderKate

there is a wildlife sanctuary just north of toronto, they don't have a great deal of luck with birds either - they think they are too frightened.. and the babies aare either imprinted on the parents (who are absent) or the techs (who are not always there)...

9:15 pm

featherbee

down to 15! whee!

9:15 pm

MollyL

Hi Feather

9:15 pm

TraderKate

9:22 pm

TraderKate

sorry bout that.

10:28 pm

Jillyjill

Hello phandmd

10:28 pm

TraderKate

hi phand :)
nothing to be sorry for!

10:29 pm

phandmd

Just back from the Rodeo and though I would see how many words I can get, just got 42 in 5ish mins. 24 left...

10:30 pm

phandmd

how are you tonight?

10:30 pm

TraderKate

go, phand, go!!!!!

10:31 pm

TraderKate

i'm very well, thank you for asking :)
and yourself? are you participating in the rodeo, or are you a spectator?

10:32 pm

phandmd

spectator, though my son (18) participated in something called "Bull Hockey" There were no winners though. Could have won 100 bucks!

10:32 pm

kimberblue

almost done. help with the RO 6 18 please?

10:33 pm

TraderKate

sounds like fun! hockey sticks and a puck(??) on the backs of smallish bulls?

10:33 pm

TraderKate

hi kimberblue :)

10:33 pm

phandmd

No, running around trying to get a bull to go through the goals.

10:33 pm

phandmd

the bulls are full sized.

10:34 pm

Jacula

Hi all. ro6.18 - German general from WWII, but change the middle consonants from double what they are to the one before them in the alphabet.

10:35 pm

TraderKate

excellent clue jacula! and hey hey!!! long time no see!

10:35 pm

Jacula

Sorry - he was a field marshall, not a general.

10:35 pm

Jillyjill

hello jacula!

10:36 pm

Jacula

Hi Tr. Kate.

10:36 pm

Jacula

Hi Jilly.

10:36 pm

TraderKate

phand - can't imagine that... a bull only goes where he wants to go, doesn't he??? perhaps that is why there was no winner? hahaha ;)

10:36 pm

phandmd

well, you have to get the bull's attention and then run through the goal yourself and then hopefully the bull will go too.

10:36 pm

kimberblue

ty =)

10:37 pm

Jacula

Let's not talk about bull fighting or bull runs when I'm here, since I'm Taurean. lol

10:37 pm

phandmd

2 years ago, my son-in-law played it with his brother, they actually had won!

10:37 pm

Jillyjill

Me too!!

10:38 pm

TraderKate

ah! so no one is actually riding the bulls, they try to entice them through the goals.... like a bull fight - do they have capes or something else to attract their attention?

10:38 pm

phandmd

no. Just their arms and voices.

10:38 pm

TraderKate

<no taureans were harmed in the gaming of the bull hockey > ;)

10:39 pm

10:42 pm

kimberblue

our dog lola 8 years ago as a puppy

10:43 pm

TraderKate

phand - don't know how people have the nerve to do that kind of thing, i'm a bit of a wuss myself.. (though i was much more daring in my youth than i am now)

10:44 pm

phandmd

Kate, I was also more brave in my youth. I agree that I am kind of a wuss these days. I don't even like roller coaster rides!

10:44 pm

Jacula

Any Babble clues needed?

10:44 pm

TraderKate

lola - with the "dark brown voice" how sweet! i know a doberman named lola, and a pug too, come to think of it... great name for a pup!

10:44 pm

phandmd

and now, I am off to bed. Got down to 11.

10:45 pm

Jillyjill

I'm done, but here for the chatter

10:45 pm

Jillyjill

Niters phand...you sure you don't want to finish? we can help.

10:45 pm

TraderKate

i still like roller coasters, but i must confess, it has been years. i have not gone on the newer ones like the hanging ones or the ones that go upside down...

10:45 pm

Jacula

Lola was a man dressed as a woman - at least in The Kinks' song.

10:46 pm

Jacula

Here for the chatter, too, but I will clue, if asked.

10:46 pm

TraderKate

just what i was thinking jacula :)
good night phand, are you sure you don't want a few clues to finish you off?

10:46 pm

TraderKate

jilly, did i miss your fireworks???

10:50 pm

TraderKate

let's see... "shameless' on in a few minutes, when that's over it's time for the flip... that's my night organized ;)

10:51 pm

Jacula

I'm planning to watch episode one of the final series of 'Dexter' on FOX later. I want to watch it, but I also don't want it to end.

10:52 pm

Jacula

I used to watch 'Shameless' avidly until about season 5. I just couldn't keep up any more with work, home etc.

10:53 pm

TraderKate

i hear you there, jacula. i wtched it when it first came on, and quite enjoyed it, but now do not have the "fancy cable" that gets the premium channels, so i have no idea what's going on there... hopefully it will be broadcast on regular cable soon..

10:54 pm

Jillyjill

TK....I achieved FW this morning...LOL

10:54 pm

Jacula

Yea, Kate - I lost 'Game of Thrones' through changing my TV company. My son has promised to give us the whole series on disc very soon.

10:55 pm

Jacula

Jillyjill - what is FW?

10:55 pm

Jillyjill

Fireworks....

10:55 pm

Jacula

Oh, lol. Facepalm.

10:56 pm

Jillyjill

Oh don't worry Jacula...btw, how are you?...any better with the sleeping?

10:57 pm

TraderKate

i only ever saw the first season (i think) of the british version - excellent show! the yanks have re-done it - and i must say, they did it right! kept true to the script, character names and even their appearance! the only difference is that frank is played by william h macy- who looks nothing like the original frank... but i am enjoying it very much. i will have to find the british version on tape or dvd to watch it... it is only in the first season of the u.s. version here....

10:57 pm

Jacula

Re Dexter - is it wrong to not want to get a serial killer found out?

10:57 pm

TraderKate

jac- not in the case of dexter... is that hte way it ends?

10:58 pm

Jacula

Is it wrong to want to see his son sitting in a sea of blood and saying, 'Daddy! Blood slide!' ...?

10:58 pm

TraderKate

happy belated fw jilly - if i didn't already congratulate you !

10:58 pm

Jillyjill

No one was on then, so thank you kate

10:59 pm

Jacula

As a writer, I don't want Dexter to end. Dopn't know how it ends yet but I hope it's not just with him ion prison and nothing more to come.

10:59 pm

TraderKate

rofl jac!
sorry you had no cheering squad for your fireworks jilly, kinda sux

11:00 pm

Jacula

Kate - Yes, you must find the UK version of 'Shamesless'.

11:01 pm

Jillyjill

*puts her big girl panties on*

11:01 pm

Jacula

I should get back to bed soon, since I seem to have lost the ability to type.

11:02 pm

TraderKate

it's got to be out there somewhere.... but surprisingly, the u.s. version even contains the nudity and swearing.... they kept it exactly as it was first created. but i like the brit frank better - even though macy does a very credible job as his cl 5/12

11:02 pm

Jillyjill

Damn! Our favorite restuarant had a fire tonight....guess it'll be a while before we eat there again :(

11:02 pm

TraderKate

not staying for the flip jacula????

11:03 pm

Jacula

'Big Girl Panties' - are those the massive ones used as apple catchers or the really tight and uncomfortable ones used to hold in middle-aged spead?

11:03 pm

TraderKate

thaat's a shame jilly! what kind of place was it?

11:03 pm

Jillyjill

They are the ones you "cowboy up" with...

11:03 pm

Jacula

Pity that, jilly.

11:04 pm

TraderKate

.. the kind where you don't require others to clue you to the babble finish line?

11:04 pm

Jillyjill

TK, it was a mongolian BBQ...we eat there everytime we are in Missoula...

11:04 pm

TraderKate

i want me a cowboy ;)

11:05 pm

TraderKate

yummers! i hope they get it re-built soon. hopefully the damage wasn't as bad as first thought.

11:05 pm

Jacula

Tight kind of panties then Kate and Jilly? Hate those!

11:05 pm

Jacula

I don't need a cowboy, I got me a trucker!

11:06 pm

TraderKate

<-----wears cast-iron underwear ;)
lol @ jackers ;)

11:07 pm

TraderKate

got tired of picking my panties out from between my bum bits......

11:07 pm

Jillyjill

Sorry Jacula...it's an american saying sort of like "grow up"

11:07 pm

Jacula

No one needs any Babble clues then?

11:08 pm

Jillyjill

Oh, I have several pairs of Spanx....really not too bad

11:08 pm

Jacula

'Grow up?' I never intend to do that far more than I have to!

11:09 pm

TraderKate

have no spanx, just playtex #750

11:10 pm

TraderKate

no one can make us grow up if we don't wanna!!! so there!!!!

11:10 pm

Jacula

When the time comes that me and himself no longer feel comfortable hopping on and off kerbs to re-enact 'Singing In The Rain' or lie on a beach doing that kissing scene from 'From Here To Eternity' then maybe we'll give in to age.

11:11 pm

Jillyjill

Well, it's more like saying "deal with it" I guess....I also have no intentions of 'growing up'!

11:13 pm

TraderKate

ahhh, the waves crashing over you in a cascade of passion... i'm with you! and the singing in the rain sounds good too - but i keep falling off the wall when i try to do the 360 ;)

11:13 pm

TraderKate

shall we form a 'not grown up" club?

11:14 pm

TraderKate

we'll make jilly the president!

11:14 pm

Jacula

Well, Kate, you do have to amend the scenes to what you can do as you get older.

11:14 pm

Jillyjill

Let's do!!

11:15 pm

Jacula

Yes, that cclub sounds good! We will wear red and purple, and maybe some yellow just tyo clash and get us noticed.

11:15 pm

TraderKate

that's what pulleys and levers were invented for jackers :)
okay, jilly..let's get the word out...maybe on babbler fb page?

11:15 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...I would think the three of us would stand out no matter WHAT we were wearing!!

11:16 pm

TraderKate

i love to weaar red and purple together!!! that's no uniform, that's really me!

11:16 pm

Jacula

That's so funny, Kate, since I keep telling 'himself; we will need pulleys and levers soon.

11:17 pm

TraderKate

... and we would turn heads, and all the "grown-ups" would be secretly jealous, while tsk-tsk-tsking us aloud!

11:17 pm

TraderKate

while gravity cannot be denied, science has an answer for almost any situation ;)

11:18 pm

Jacula

Tee, hee, Kate.

11:18 pm

Jillyjill

I can think of a few babblers that would tsk-tsk as well....LOL

11:18 pm

Jacula

Sod them, Jilly!

11:18 pm

Jillyjill

Science needs to figure out how to inject youthful energy into old bones...

11:19 pm

TraderKate

(just look for the loverly ladies wearing red and purlple with a dash of yellow cavorting and careening down the streeet singing hey nonny nonny ;)

11:19 pm

TraderKate

jilly - they can get stuffed!

11:19 pm

Jillyjill

True dat!

11:20 pm

TraderKate

singing and drinking and eating choclits!

11:20 pm

Jacula

I'm not sure about 'hey, nonny. nonny' but I'm sure something else would be fine.

11:21 pm

TraderKate

dis gonna be some bad-ass club... i hope they let me in....

11:21 pm

TraderKate

singing "we are the champions" and 'bohemian rhapsody" by queen?

11:22 pm

Jacula

Jacula

I'm off to bed now where my man, though sleeping, will feel my ass. He never has any memory of doing this, so we think his hand works on autopilot. See you nextm grid.

11:24 pm

Jillyjill
