5:38 am

so... how did the meeting go, rose? You wrote the outcome in your email, but not the experience.

5:39 am

grannyrose

no meeting as yet, sprite.union rep wants all the paperwork before they go into 'battle'. still trying to sort it out.

5:40 am

sprite

oh wow! Even better. I thought the appointment was for you, the union rep and work. How about the gag order? What did they say about that?

5:41 am

grannyrose

haven't told them about that yet....i will probably have top scrape the rep off the ceiling when she finds out.

5:42 am

sprite

hehehe isn't it nice to have someone firmly in your corner? Make sure to tell her. The bullying is a point in your favour.

5:44 am

grannyrose

lol, give me time to type, bichon:)

6:39 am

sprite

some words are missing from that list. I will post a completed one in my profile in a few minutes. Missing one more word here.

6:39 am

crosshair

there we go:)

6:41 am

bichon

How do people find 290 words without a list. Beats me.

6:42 am

sprite

it is experience, mostly. I used to babble long before lists were used.

6:42 am

bichon

I don't think any amount of experience would help

6:44 am

sprite

it is a different way of looking at the grid, maybe. When there are no lists available, and when you don't know how many words there are in total, or how many start from a certain tile, you look for patterns in a different way.

6:44 am

bichon

What about the really obscure words

6:45 am

doseffing

... you make a list of them and keep it handy for reference

6:46 am

doseffing

... ask crossy if he has any of the t-shirts left from the day there were 744 in the grid ...

6:46 am

bichon

crossy made t-shirts. What did it say?

6:46 am

sprite

sometimes it helps me to search for a pattern in a2z. And sometimes somebody else knows the word and leaves a clue.

6:47 am

doseffing

... it just showed the gird

6:47 am

I survived the Big One, plus the date and the grid. It was a treasure.

I think I started it late in the day and whittle it down to 300

6:49 am

I think the composer's name ends in an e? Am I wrong?

The way it's spelled in the grid is an East Indian concept

6:53 am

crosshair

ahh, the 744. I still bear the scars.

6:53 am

doseffing

... you're correct ... but it's easier to remember that as the composer's name than as a Hindu ritual

We are way behind on rainfall and have been in a 10 yr. drought. The Colorado River has receded for the first time in history...not a good thing since this entire area plus Nevada, California and Mexico depend on it.

No harm, no foul Annie. : D By the way, I took a page out of your book and ordered grilled corned beef and swiss with cole slaw yesterday for lunch. It was really good.

7:47 am

So, it is my understanding he would basically be managing editor of this new app.

7:48 am

lol, tell him to look at CNN.com on what NOT to do. I think all their copy room people passed away sometime last year!

7:48 am

Anniebrook

Molly, that's a Reuben sandwich, you had cole slaw instead of sauerkraut...glad you enjoyed it. Now I will be craving a Reuben. I think I will have cole slaw too.

7:49 am

MollyL

Yes, but if you order w Reuben with slaw instead of sauerkraut, they look at you funny. So I order it seperately and do it up myself.

7:50 am

MimiCat

He has been managing editor for our local paper's online crawl, Arizona Central for a few years now so he knows what he is doing. He really hates other sites he sees that aren't accurate and do a poor job. My kids are all anal-retentive about work...gee, wonder where they got that trait!

My problem with that hot Reuben dip is that it has sour cream and cream cheese in it, which has nothing to do with Reuben sandwiches.

8:01 am

mkg

i never heard of reuben dip.

8:01 am

MimiCat

Mine doesn't, Molly. Only the corned beef, kraut, dressing and Swiss cheese.

8:01 am

crosshair

tis indeed, mimi:)

8:01 am

Anniebrook

Reuben:corned beef, swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing, sauerkraut, good rye

8:02 am

mkg

it is not the original way. a reuben was sourkraut, mustard, corned beef and rye bread. that was the original. it for sure didnt have anything milk on it or in it

8:02 am

MimiCat

You don't even need a recipe...just mix 'em all together and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes. Then scoop up on rye.

8:02 am

mkg

and it didnt have cheese either.

8:02 am

crosshair

is one thing you can never skimp on, a good quality rye bread

8:02 am

mkg

the cheese and sour cream are add ons that came much much later on.

8:02 am

Anniebrook

mkg, then it became non kosher, hence the cheese

8:02 am

mkg

good rye is hard. very hard. not soft.

8:03 am

right annie. i cant imagine it with cheese.

8:03 am

since i keep kosher the cheese just doesnt sound good to me at all.

Just passing along Sprite and Juniper's contributions

8:22 am

MollyL

Bich, if you are still here, to answer your earlier question, people solve these big grids without Lickety because there are countless lists of word groupings in the early chat. It's really a group effort, except for the few who can solve without ever listing.

8:23 am

josephjames

it sure would be interesting if the things people pick as user names were names people actually gave their kids

8:24 am

MollyL

I don't know JJ, I would pity the kids if they had some of the usernames I have seen on line : D

8:24 am

Just you and me acquainted with Uncle Tom jaxx

5:04 pm

jaxx7

Dartmoor folk song, pen, ends in a long list of names hence Uncle Tom Cobley and all. This means et al in a humourous way.

5:04 pm

penquis

5:08 pm

jaxx7

I have been getting the house ready for the SS. Ashley's room is so tidy you can see the carpet. I tackled the kitchen work surfaces, washing, dishwashing, and tumble drying. Lots of bags of rubbish so it is off to the local tip tomorrow, chrissie. Now feel like a limp rag.

5:09 pm

ChrissieDee

Whew, tired just reading that jaxx. Hope it goes well. Did you say your regular SW is on holiday?

5:12 pm

jaxx7

yes. the new one is a woman. Started nice but soon turned nasty. Tomorrow it is the boxes of kitchenalia and magazines and a 1/12 wooden model of the Santa maria that is currently occupying a large area in the kitchen. A present for Ashley from my next door neighbour, it is all wood and doesn't float.

5:15 pm

ChrissieDee

I could do with taking a leaf out of your book. My house needs a major de-clutter (and spring clean)

5:16 pm

ChrissieDee

Wouldn't want to be under pressure from the SS though

5:18 pm

jaxx7

We had the kitchen gutted and replaced last August so it was nice to move all my husband's garden clutter into his shed and reveal the lovely work surfaces. My trouble is that as fast as I throw things out my husband puts them back as 'they might be useful'. I have tried telling him that we are now at or near the dreaded three score years and ten so there won't be time to use it all.

5:20 pm

jaxx7

I sneaked this clear up in while he and Ash were carp fishing. he did admit that it looked good. Now I tie Ashley up so he can't make a mess until the SS have been on Friday. lol

5:29 pm

phandmd

good evening!

5:30 pm

Uneaixoise

hey phan :-)

5:30 pm

penquis

hi phan...

5:30 pm

phandmd

how are you?

5:30 pm

penquis

good thanks....you?

5:30 pm

ChrissieDee

Back, just getting ready for bed

5:30 pm

phandmd

not bad.

5:31 pm

phandmd

I am curious about something though

If I told you I went to visit 2 of my residents that have been in the hospital for several days, would that be shocking?

5:32 pm

phandmd

I ask because on of my co-workers was quite surprised.

5:32 pm

penquis

two were hospitalized at the same time?....out of how many?

5:32 pm

ChrissieDee

Does the SS know he has a lovely grandad who takes him fishing, and takes an interest in him in many other ways I'm sure?

5:32 pm

phandmd

there are 59 residents on our unit

5:33 pm

penquis

do they have the same medical issues?

5:33 pm

phandmd

no they don't

5:33 pm

jaxx7

They do but they have us labelled as liars. We felt very battered yesterday.

5:34 pm

penquis

well then it's not all that remarkable....

5:35 pm

phandmd

no, it's not. But is my going to visit them so unusual?

5:35 pm

penquis

i think it's quite nice and considerate....

5:35 pm

penquis

i am sure they appreciated it...

5:36 pm

phandmd

the co-worker was so surprised I would do that, like it would never cross her mind to visit a resident she cares for

5:36 pm

Anniebrook

phand, I think it is very nice of you. Not unusual at all.

5:36 pm

penquis

well some people view personal boundaries differently....

5:36 pm

ChrissieDee

You must be a more caring person than your co-worker phan

5:37 pm

phandmd

I guess for me this is not just a job, but a mission.

5:37 pm

Anniebrook

phand, good for you.

5:37 pm

penquis

that's very admirable, especially since you are a role model for these residents...

5:38 pm

jaxx7

I am afraid that the caring side of care has got lost in Britain.

5:38 pm

penquis

you are bringing me good karma, phan....just found five more words!

5:38 pm

phandmd

that's awesome, Pen

5:39 pm

jaxx7

Vocation has died.

5:39 pm

penquis

;oD

5:40 pm

MollyL

Phan, we live in a very self-absorbed society. People are often surprised when someone goes the extra few steps. I'm sure your visits were appreciated.

5:40 pm

periwinkle

I just checked and lickety is up. or did you know this already?

5:40 pm

jaxx7

Well said Molly

5:40 pm

phandmd

I know they were! I just really can't get over how shocked she was...

5:41 pm

MollyL

Thanks Peri. Lickety dropped in to chat for a few minutes.

5:41 pm

penquis

i was here when Lickety came by....

5:41 pm

phandmd

I guess I need to close this and re-open. refreshing didn't help.

5:41 pm

penquis

he had to leave to learn his lines for a play...

5:42 pm

periwinkle

good for you, phan for visiting those patients. I am sure they appreciated it.

5:44 pm

jaxx7

After all the housework today, I am off to me bed folks. See you tomorrow.

5:44 pm

penquis

goodnight!

5:44 pm

ChrissieDee

Night jaxx. Sleep well x

5:46 pm

Anniebrook

gnite, jaxx

5:47 pm

ChrissieDee

I'm sure it's not the first time this has been said today, but....phantom asshole ;)

5:59 pm

phandmd

so, closing and re-opening lickety didn't work, suggestions?

5:59 pm

periwinkle

shut off computer and then turn it on again?

5:59 pm

phandmd

groan, okay, will do.

6:00 pm

MollyL

Have you opened Lickety and refreshed while you were there?

6:01 pm

phandmd

I am not sure I understand your question, Molly. I was here, heard Lickety was up, tried to refresh, it didn't work. So, then I closed lickety out and re-opened, that didn't work either.

6:01 pm

phandmd

restarting computer, back soon

6:03 pm

periwinkle

18 left, bbs

6:10 pm

penquis

cool and rainy here....might have to have a cup of tea....

6:11 pm

phandmd

hmmm, still didn't work. I still have yesterday's clues

6:11 pm

penquis

weird....is there a way to clean out your cache?

6:12 pm

phandmd

I don't know, is there?

6:12 pm

penquis

you could also try to log out and log back in...

6:12 pm

Anniebrook

Phand, sometimes I turn off the surge and the computer and start all over and that seems to work for me

6:12 pm

penquis

i understand the concept of cache but i don't know how to do it....

6:12 pm

phandmd

What is the surge?

6:12 pm

penquis

she just means to unplug it....

6:12 pm

penquis

disconnect it from a surge protector....

6:13 pm

phandmd

oh, now I understand.

6:13 pm

Anniebrook

How do I explain it. yes, just what penquis said

6:13 pm

Anniebrook

thanks pen

6:13 pm

penquis

yw....

6:13 pm

MollyL

Power off is power off whether you are connected to the surge protector or not.

6:14 pm

phandmd

That's what I was thinking, Molly.

6:14 pm

MollyL

This is a cookies, cache, history problem.

6:14 pm

penquis

it's a strategy that works with modems and routers, not necessarily with computers....

6:14 pm

MollyL

Yes, power off works with modems and routers. It has nothing to do with the surge protector.

6:15 pm

MollyL

Phan, what browser do you use? IE, Firefox, Google Chrome?

6:15 pm

penquis

the surge protector is often easier to access than the wall plug....if you turn that off, you are cutting power to all that is connected to it....

6:16 pm

MollyL

Okay, let me be more specific. Power off is power off. Unplugging, either from the wall or the surge protector is the same thing as power off.

6:18 pm

licketySplitAUS

To refresh clues, do this :

6:19 pm

licketySplitAUS

1) Right click in the Page and a menu appears, click Refresh, if that doesnt work try no 2

6:20 pm

licketySplitAUS

2) Clear your Browser Cache using the method for your version of browser, or IE for Babble Expert using this link : http://bit.ly/1yxzoVD

6:20 pm

licketySplitAUS

A power off is never needed.

6:21 pm

Dorens

straight from the expert

6:21 pm

Dorens

(expert's mouth)

6:21 pm

MollyL

Thank you Lickety

6:22 pm

licketySplitAUS

Oh there is another shortcut too sometimes, Click in an empty space of the page and hold down the Cntrl Key and press the F5 function key at the same time.

6:23 pm

licketySplitAUS

Actually, Shift + Ctril + F5 is another one too

6:24 pm

phandmd

Thanks, Lickety, my husband just helped me clear my cache and now I have today's clues.

6:25 pm

licketySplitAUS

If none of those works, take the computer out of the wall, walk to the nearest large body of water, spin it counter clockwise above your head, release and say ; "Bon Voyage!"

6:25 pm

penquis

lolol....

6:28 pm

Tanja

lolol ty for this mornings smiles Lickety (and the clues of course)

6:31 pm

MollyL

See, you need a real pro to give you tips like that
: D

6:33 pm

MollyL

If a helpful husband is not available, a Google search on "how to clear your cache" will be of assistance.

6:34 pm

penquis

i did not know how to do mine, so i looked in "tools" in my browser and there it was!

6:37 pm

MollyL

So Phan, what browser do you use?

6:38 pm

phandmd

well, I use Chrome, but lickety seems to use IE (if I click a link on here, it opens and IE page)

6:39 pm

penquis

i use Chrome....if you click on the three dark lines in the upper right, you see tools....click on that and you see "clear browsing data".....i am assuming that will clear the cache...

6:40 pm

phandmd

yes, it's already done, Pen. Thank you.

6:40 pm

penquis

np...

6:42 pm

MollyL

That is really weird. I use Chrome and when I click on the Lickety link here, it opens in Chrome.

6:43 pm

penquis

same here...

6:45 pm

MollyL

I've never heard of a computer switching browsers automatically when you click on a link

6:58 pm

phandmd

huh. that is weird. I have no explaination

6:59 pm

phandmd

except that I have both on my computer? I used to use IE?

7:01 pm

penquis

i used to use IE, too.....still on the computer but now i use Chrome...
