1:54 am

I'm now watching the trailers.
1:57 am
melonheadjujube

It reminds me of the Boris Karloof "Frankenstien", too. There's an element of pathos. And it is funny.

OK. Mediocrity achieved. nbt nbs > halfway and all ≥ 7s. I must say I thought the ti7 was just bad English!

hello!we had a huge thunderstorm last night but it's beautifulthis AM and smells so sweet
4:10 am
rubyfoo

but I had to sit and cuddle both dogs until the thunder stopped
4:10 am
rubyfoo

how is your weather?
4:10 am
rubyfoo

and, more important, how are you?
4:10 am
rbud

awww, poor puppies! they do hate the noises, don't they.
4:11 am
rbud

oh, it's hot, (and so am I, haha) hard to sleep. time to put in the air conditioner, I guess.
4:12 am
rubyfoo

we have aircon, but only in the bedroom, but it's hard to isolate the dogs, so we don't use it much
4:12 am
rubyfoo

BTW, I agree with you about small town life. I can't imagine ever living in a big city again
4:14 am
rbud

I had a sad moment or two on the 4th of July, remembering how my little doggie would cower under my chair when the bangs and booms would start up. She died in late Jan, thought I was kind of over it by now, but...
4:14 am
rubyfoo

I felt the same way as my Ruby died in Feb and she used to cower in my closet when there were fireworks
4:15 am
rubyfoo

I thought these two dogs weren't such "fraidy cats" lol
4:16 am
rubyfoo

I don't those feelings ever go away
4:16 am
rubyfoo

4:17 am
joso

that's how grief is, you grieve less often, but it never goes away entirely.
4:18 am
rubyfoo

when a beloved pet dies, it leaves a big hole in your heart
4:18 am
rbud

yep, the oddest little thing will bring back something or other to remind me. She was at least 18 or so, a lot of years.
4:18 am
rubyfoo

I grieve more for my lost dogs than for anybody else
4:18 am
rubyfoo

that is a long life for a dog, but I guess small ones live longer than big ones
4:19 am
rubyfoo

Ruby just made it past 10, the oldest of all my chows
4:19 am
joso

It's my dad for me, but not looking forward to shadow going
4:19 am
rbud

folks bug me now and then to get another one, but I figure she just fell into our life, and the next one will, too, when it's time. :)
4:19 am
rubyfoo

but we immediately got a new puppy and the junior dog in Ruby's life has "stepped up" and become realy close to me, sensing, I think, my sadness
4:20 am
rbud

oh, cute dog, joso, what kind?
4:20 am
rubyfoo

since we've had such bad luck with some of our chows, we always have two now as it makes it a little bit easier when the time comes
4:20 am
rubyfoo

my London family just lost their dog whose name was Shadow, too
4:22 am
joso

yes, it's odd with dogs, the larger they are the shorter the lifespan. for the rest of the animal kingdom the reverse is true, whales 100+ gnats a few days
4:22 am
rubyfoo

exactly
4:22 am
rubyfoo

Do either of yoouknow a book called Zoobiquity? It compares human and animal illnesses and is fascinating
4:23 am
joso

shadow is 10 now, and starting to grey around the muzzle, sleeps a lot too.
4:23 am
rubyfoo

a little bit technical, but very good at providing insights
4:24 am
joso

never heard of it, sounds interesting. is it french?
4:24 am
rubyfoo

have to go to lunch but will be back later
4:24 am
rubyfoo

No, it's American, written by a cardilogist and a vet.
4:24 am

6:09 am
crayola

It was my 2 am fuzzy musing.
6:09 am
rubyfoo

I didn't know that about co's. I like it when my dogs bark; it's a kind of early warning system for the gate and parking
6:09 am
rubyfoo

and if I say OK, they stop immediately.
6:10 am

then you get those nasty little ankle biters that bark at every shadow and squirrel fart

You can be humourless, however.

Ah, now you're asking difficult questions.
8:51 am
Haz1558

And hello, hego.
8:51 am
hego

:D
8:51 am
hurshy

so is it just with the -ous, or what about plain, is it humour or humor
8:52 am
Haz1558

On its own, it's humour.
8:53 am
Haz1558

It's the same with odour, gone bad it becomes malodorous.
8:53 am
Haz1558

There'll be a rule for the whole thing but with so many qualifications and let out clauses it's best just to accept that English is quirky.
8:54 am
Haz1558

Get out clauses, rather than let out clauses..
8:55 am

"malodorous" would apply to the peeping tom caught in a septic tank.

The root was correct, yes.

Haz1558

I'm looking up my Oxford Language reference book to see if it can be extra helpful.
9:02 am
hurshy

left col grey!
9:02 am
Haz1558

Nouns ending in -our change this to -or before the suffixes -ation, iferous, ific, ise and ous.
9:02 am
Haz1558

The exception is colourise/colourize.
9:03 am
hurshy

*dutifully copies and pastes to notepad*
9:03 am
Haz1558

-our keeps the u before other suffixes but exceptions include humorist and rigorist.

Everyone should have a salad shooter. It shreds potato and onion up in seconds and you can make your own hash browns.

Unfortunately, Tater Tots taste best when deep fried. Although, if you leave them in the oven long enough, they will get really crispy.

if you can "open 2 pages" you can still use lickety.. babble grid, stats, and word list on one put lickety on the other... you can still transfer your words from the gid list to lickety using the bulk add/grab box... just copy your list and paste it into lickety
2:45 pm

...you don't have to worrry about the word points, lickety takes care of that for you

4:00 pm

aslindy, are you talking about Babble Pro?
4:00 pm

or Babble Expert?
4:00 pm

and hello all -- babbling from the comfort of the new sofa and nothing to do now until someone is home to help me put my bed together...

ok, she said pro
4:04 pm

I think it happens automatically -- the login should just lead into the full babble screen with all the stats
4:04 pm
penquis

what's the difference between pro and expert?
4:05 pm
aslindy

ok, thanks. I thought she meant Babble Expert at first.
4:05 pm
stidmama

pro is what Dr God put together and it costs money (about $15 for a lifetime subscription), expert is what Lickety put together and it is free
4:06 pm
penquis

and what is expert?...how is that different from the regular lickety page?
4:07 pm
stidmama

expert is a nifty, windows-only application that has lickety's list integrated with the grid. As you enter things into expert, the list is populated automatically and sent to babble for official counting. ;-) It's nifty. but I have a mac
4:07 pm
aslindy

Babble Expert gets you a special browser that is only used for Babble, with separate panes for the Lickety list
4:08 pm
penquis

ah...ok...
4:08 pm

plus it has a special window for entering words, and if you enter more than one word it goes to chat instead

the tilapia i saw was in a big supermarket off their fresh fish counter but int he sale bit in the shop and it was in a bag that we couldn't see the fish, so i don't know if it wsa filleted or not.but it was a canny length. i only like plain haddock, i can't stand smoked fish.the bairn loves...ahh, i've forgotten what they are called the yellow fish foe breakfast
6:11 pm
lilliann

hi stid :D
6:13 pm
stidmama

:-D any improvement helps, eh? *wicked daughter grin*
6:13 pm

i doubt you'll come up north croosy, but if you ever do you and Elegant are always welcome to stay
6:13 pm

6:14 pm
stidmama

lillian... there was a really cool BBC article this past week about a "Geordie" Roman god -- they found a statue up north. I thought of you, of course...
6:14 pm
lilliann

kippers, i had to google.. they smell the house out for days!!
6:15 pm
stidmama

*giggle* I thought "croosy" was northern for crossy...
6:15 pm
crosshair

call me anything you like,just do not call me late for dinner:))
6:15 pm
stidmama

I used to love kippers when I was a kid, Mother would make scrambled eggs and kippers, and buttermilk biscuits... *drool*
6:16 pm
crosshair

crossy does not eat fish for breakfast;(
6:16 pm
lilliann

it could be stid , lol oh wow, i've never seen that programme stid. where was it found and what was he called?
6:16 pm
stidmama

why not, cross? a bit of salmon on toast, with a good cup of coffee... *sigh* it's heavenly
6:16 pm
stidmama

I will find the link lilliann, hold on.
6:16 pm
lilliann

the smell put's me off and then they are full of bones
6:17 pm

6:21 pm
lilliann

was it a Roman fort?
6:22 pm
lilliann

it might not be as it is coming up bincester
6:22 pm
stidmama

I am not sure, they seem to think it was at least associated with a Roman encampment of some kind
6:22 pm
lilliann

sorry, i meant binchester
6:23 pm
stidmama

I think there was a Roman presence all over the place. They were sort of like fleas, or bedbugs...
6:23 pm
lilliann

we had roman placements all over this country
6:24 pm
stidmama

I bet it's fun to grow up in a place with so much family history -- although I grew up (mostly) here on the Salish Sea my own family is not part of the landscape the way it was back East when I lived there (only we didn't know part of our family was from there at the time!)
6:26 pm
lilliann

bye jill and tc :)
6:28 pm
lilliann

i didn't grow up in the north even though alot of my family live or wer from up here. i lived down south for a lot of years.that was where i was brought up
6:29 pm
stidmama

oh! so you speak with a southern drawl? I did, for a few weeks after we moved out here, then I decided to conform to the local patterns (which are pretty much standard American with a mid-West origin)
6:29 pm
lilliann

my husbands family are all from here.mine are from here, wales,england and scotland
6:29 pm
stidmama

ah, you have a diversified portfolio!
6:30 pm
lilliann

southern english anyway :) but more northern now, but when i'm angry with my daughter the southern comes out
6:31 pm
lilliann

alot of my family are welsh and i'm related to Howard Hughes
6:31 pm
stidmama

Mother said that when she visited England (in the south, near Winchester and Chard) that each little village seemed to have its own language, though I am sure there are some commonalities between locations in districts
6:31 pm
joso

me to lil + ireland, call myself british mongrel
6:32 pm
lilliann

lol joso, me too, apparently, i think there is a bit of irish in our family too
6:33 pm
lilliann

we all have different accents and dialects, the same as any country
6:33 pm
stidmama

that's interesting, lilliann -- he is pretty famous around here because of his spruce goose -- there is a big museum south of portland (I want to go there some time)
6:34 pm
joso

though my mom's side comes via the west indies
6:34 pm
stidmama

I wonder if you are seeing an erosion of local variations like we are? Seems that the media uses a plain vanilla speech pattern and vocabulary and so people copy that instead of using their local language
6:34 pm
lilliann

he was my great grandmothers nephew and he ended up un the US.he ended iup going mad and had his home in the dessert covered in sheets and would go around naked all the time
6:35 pm
lilliann

that's interesting joso. where abouts?
6:37 pm
stidmama

Well, that is an interesting person to have in the family tree!
6:38 pm
joso

all over, granddad worked for lloyds bank in their colonial program, three years at a colony and one year leave back in england. mom born in trinidad, got aunts from jamaica, tobago, cuba
6:38 pm
lilliann

my grandmother had papers to testify that he was a relation when he died but her nephew's wife got hold of all the paperwork and just burnt it thinking it was rubbish and plus he had money in loads of businesses that the lawyers told them it would be hard for them to get any money.but he got his money from my great grandad to start with who was wealthy in wales
6:39 pm
joso

H H was a fascinating guy, too bad he fell apart
6:40 pm
lilliann

i didn't believe my mam and dad when they told me that i was related to the famous Howard Hughes but they have told me loads of things and shown me what they have and they aren't the type of people to lie about family, so there we are.i never knew him, only what i've read and heard from the family that are still alive
6:41 pm
lilliann

wow joso. have you ever been to any of those countries and do you have family members there?
6:42 pm
MollyL

L, have you seen the movie "The Aviator"?
6:43 pm
stidmama

that's the thing about family histories, lilliann -- someone told Matthew we are related to French royalty (a common fancy it seems) but I explained it was unlikely - and why, and a little digging revealed some family long ago might have been workers in a town the kings of France owned... LOL
6:43 pm
joso

about every 3-4 years my brothers and I would be sent to jamaica for the summer.
6:44 pm
stidmama

that's a strange time of year to head there, joso -- would have been more fun in winter, I suppose?
6:45 pm
joso

summer school vacation, would have liked to skip school but mom was not having it
6:45 pm
lilliann

no, we actually are related stid, no lies.i'm going to have ot do more digging whilst my dad is alive and able to tell me everything so i can get all teh paper work
6:47 pm
stidmama

I didn't mean you aren't, I meant it's so easy to dismiss stories of fabled relatives because of the all-too-common wishful thinking tales. After all, who wants to be descended from a drunken, lazy innkeeper?
6:47 pm
lilliann

i don't want any money, but it would be great to have him in my family tree book.i've written everything down that my dad ha told me so far and there is alot that's alike but things that aren't in the news, as they say he is american, well, he was but not by birth
6:48 pm
stidmama

I understand! :-)
6:49 pm
lilliann

well, who wants to be known as a relative who went mad but he did alot of good things when he was alive and was a very intelligent man.
6:49 pm
stidmama

well, down to 21 I think I am going to list
6:49 pm
lilliann

i've seen bits of it molly but not the whole film
6:50 pm
lilliann

exactly stid and who wants to be related to hitler!! :(
6:50 pm
stidmama

he was, indeed -- I think if he had lived a little longer he might have been "ironman" like in the movies.
6:50 pm
joso

grandma used to lay on a tortuous 'tea' for us, full of cakes, tarts, all sorts of sweet baked good, of which we could pick only 2, gave me a completely distorted idea of an english tea untill i grew up
6:51 pm
lilliann

i need to look into it more myself and get all the paperwork.i would be proud to call him a great great uncle
6:52 pm
stidmama

I feel so sorry for people who feel their entire family name has been ruined by a single individual. I bet there were many lovely people over countless generations who did good things. But I have experienced discrimination based on my name by people who knew someone with the same last name -- and it's hard to overcome their prejudices.
6:52 pm
lilliann

jamaica for the summer sounds great joso
6:52 pm
stidmama

oh joso -- what a mean thing to do to a child. *disapproving mama look*
6:53 pm
stidmama

have to head out to take the kiddo to his college. Back soonish. *poof*
6:53 pm
lilliann

ah, that's bad joso, only two sweets!! :(
6:53 pm

I wouldn't feel ruined to be related to H H
6:53 pm
lilliann

bye stid, tc hin
6:54 pm
joso

eventually we figure out what was not taken one day would be there the next with one or 2 new choices
6:54 pm
lilliann

i don't feel ruined and i don't want anything, i just want to prove that i'm rel;ated to him whilst my dad is alive to tell me everything he knows
6:55 pm
joso

be great to have such a fascinating relative
6:57 pm
MimiCat

Hi, everyone! Lil, when I met my birth mother I found out I am related to an American President, Rutherford Hayes, and a French painter, Millet. Kind of interesting.
6:57 pm
joso

such an interesting guy, makes you wonder what his latter life would have been like with modern mental health care
6:57 pm
lilliann

i know some things from my dad and what i've read, but what i've read is all in America.everything i know is from the welsh side and that is where he is from.i need to write everything down and record what i'm told by my dad as i forget certain things
6:58 pm
lilliann

hi ((mimi)) so we both have famous family members
6:59 pm
MimiCat

((lilliann)) And my own personal claim to fame is that I once went out with Burt Reynolds.
7:00 pm
joso

my granddad could look at a long list of multi digit numbers and instantly give you total, kind of cool, and usful to a banker, but no spruce goose.
7:00 pm
lilliann

i know joso, i worked in mental health for alot of years and it has changed over the years but with what my dad told me, i don't know whether he would ever have accepted help. he didn't like people going into the house as the sheets covering it were to keep all teh germ out
7:01 pm
lilliann

the good thing is, is that i can get copies of birth certificates and other things now
7:01 pm
lilliann

lucky bitch mimi, how old were you and him then?
7:01 pm

yea, he had enough power to refuse help very efectively, but a bit of lithium might have made a huge difference to his latter life

7:04 pm

It was a small date one time...met him at the TV station where I worked...long story. I was 21 and he was filming Deliverance but don't know how old he was. Very nice and funny man.
7:05 pm
lilliann

joso, i think any relative is interesting if you look into their history.we all have interesting family members whether they are heroes and fought in any wars, down to being doctors,nurses, famous people, it doesn't matter, as they are our family, aslong as they're not killers but alot of mine were coal miners in wales and up north
7:06 pm

thats far better than my only near brush with fame mimi, almost saw the beatles really doesn't rate
7:07 pm

I sometimes feel like a female Forrest Gump since I moved around a lot and met several famous people at different times...met Pres. Jimmy Carter twice!

Looked up Burt's bio---he would have been about 36 then, lil. He was going with Dinah Shore at the time and was actually a perfect gentleman...DARN IT!

ah, a mop-top critter, then. What fun! All of my dogs have always had short hair, except Buffy, and I trimmed her regularly so we could see her eyes and so it didn't get all yucky from eye goo.

8:50 pm

stranger in the house, shadow might do that, if not previously introduced. once introduced you'd fall into the possible petter category
8:50 pm
72 Temple Owl

my firend was house sitting, a large group of strangers at party
8:51 pm
72 Temple Owl

i am very small so it was no contest
8:52 pm
joso

they are big dogs, strange history. pulled ambulances on the battlefield in ww I, almost died out.
8:52 pm
72 Temple Owl

how big is your dog?
8:53 pm
joso

on a diet now, down to 120 pounds
8:53 pm
72 Temple Owl

8:53 pm

i am barely 5'2"
8:55 pm

northern french herding dog, herd cattle by running along side, jumping, and bodychecking them. go THAT way
8:57 pm

then this dog could clear you and have almost a food TO :D
8:58 pm
joso

very bright, but doesn't understand fetch, throw a ball, he gets it, now it's his
8:58 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes ru, i was afraid i WOULD be his FOOD
8:58 pm

8:58 pm

Bouviers look bigger than they are because they have so much coat
8:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

but i was much better with the intact male pit bull last Thursday. show no fear
8:59 pm
joso

yes, very thick gnarly coat
8:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

and his owner was way cute.
8:59 pm
rururocks

you're better than me TO.. pit bulls scare the daylights out of me
9:00 pm
rururocks

cute owner or not
9:00 pm
72 Temple Owl

well, ru, if it was gong to bite me it was going to bite me. no fear was the only way to get to talk to his owner
9:00 pm
72 Temple Owl

i did not attempt to approach it
9:01 pm
rururocks

well.. I would think twice about staying over at his house .. you might be breakfast.
9:02 pm
joso

shadow is curiously gentle, never hurt any of the cats, when afraid of a person he grabs the wrist, holds it, looks at them in the eye, as if to say I could take this, then lets go.
9:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

not much chance of either. he let it wander though, folks wre complaining it lifted its leg on their tents
9:02 pm
rururocks

jeezus
9:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

i am sure your dog is lovely, joso. my situation was just bad.
9:03 pm
72 Temple Owl

but he was a great dancer. the owner, not the dog
9:04 pm
joso

shadow is also terrified of scissors
9:05 pm
MollyL

I sometimes wonder why people choose to bring their dogs to events like that.
9:05 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh my, that is odd. my friend rescued a newf/lab mix who wauld go for you if you lit a match
9:05 pm
rururocks

they might as well tote loaded guns as a loose pit bull
9:05 pm
rururocks

hope the owner wasn't a smoker :D
9:07 pm
joso

I have a theory, the breeder told me 2 of his siblings died when they cropped their ears (I didn't get shadows done), I think shadow may have seen this.
9:07 pm
72 Temple Owl

ru, i was thrilled to find new boots at flea market last weekend and was sitting on the grass to try them when i noticed a loose pit. the owners invited me to sit in their car to try them, told me the bodg was friendly. may have been, but in 90+ heat and when there are strangers and lots of other dogs around? I passed. really wanted those boots but they chose their dog over my $40
9:08 pm
72 Temple Owl

joso, that may be so. lots of vets will not crop anymore.
9:09 pm
MollyL

Flea markets, another place not really the best to bring along your dog.
9:11 pm
joso

I never let shadow of his leed, mostly because of little kids, he loves them, but just too big to romp freely with them.
9:13 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes. most dogs owners are very responsible.
9:14 pm
MollyL
