heh. i can only see about 2/3 of the grid, and none of the stats, because Bruce is sitting between me and the monitor.
12:48 am
jesdraggon

I can't complain though, because he's only there trying to fix my ipod so I have audiobooks to listen to tomorrow while I'm hauling the goat to Pullman
12:49 am
rururocks

is he trying to get your goat?
12:51 am
jesdraggon

nope. he didn't really want the goat, but she's adorable and has cute floppy ears and I'm a sucker for broken critters, you know.
12:52 am
jesdraggon

Bruce is being really nice about it though, and trying to beat the ipod into submission for me.
12:53 am
rururocks

I think that's against the law in Oregon and Washington :D
12:53 am
jesdraggon

beating ipods?

2.5 week till end of this course and the student are being dropped as fast as the teacher can pound out the blue "drop" forms.

Hello everyone.....I am confused.....why would someone want multiple babble accounts.....its not like they would get a different grid for each one. I must have missed something in the chat.

The pair of them are very vulnerable. I really hope her son steps up to the plate.
11:35 am
Soodle

No, Peri. I think she's only in France about 10/12 years
11:35 am

Her son stepping up to the plate is a stretch. He doesn't seem like that kind of person. Nor does her husband's daughter.

They have national medicine in France. We are the only western country that doesn't as far as I know.

Hello Babblers
4:32 pm

Hi everyone. With time differences etc, I'm not sure if you guys know a Babbler called Rubyfoo. Earlier today - Ruby posted that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I've just spoken with her on the phone & she is stoic. More worried about her husband than about herself. Whether it's prayers, good vibes, healing thoughts, lighting candles..... whatever...... our Ruby could do with them right now.

Hey Nan, Wht, Molls, Blah (i don't think I've met you yet..., but nice to see you).

No, Nan. Ruby's husband was just generally failing, and becoming increasingly more dependant on her. She seems to be more worried about him than herself.

6:11 pm
penquis

they were probably trying to think of a word meaning torment....
6:11 pm
Soodle

The nursery rhyme character ( the pipers son) who stole the pig and away did run, the first 3 letters of what you do when you go into a place (en*) and the first vowel...

No such thing as a bad clue, some are just more interesting to unravel is all
6:13 pm
penquis

no problem....as crossy said, no such thing as a bad clue...
6:14 pm

People usually steer clear of just about spelling out the entire word being clued.

i think it is not a good idea to mix wines. though it seemed the polite thing to so, to accept the hosptality,
9:36 pm
penquis

ko 4 x 2...
9:37 pm
rururocks

mix wines?
9:38 pm
72 Temple Owl

sample several varieties.
9:39 pm
72 Temple Owl

sans meal
9:40 pm
rururocks

oh.. I can't do that anymore either.. hard on the system
9:41 pm
72 Temple Owl

not top shelf wines, but that would be mostly lost on me.
9:44 pm
72 Temple Owl

i did think vinho verde would be a good one to jazz up for a summer afternoon's light refreshment.
9:46 pm
rururocks

vinho verde can be a good wine in the heat and humidity
9:49 pm
72 Temple Owl

this was a gallery crawl, first friday, so they were not breaking out high priced stuff. lovely munchies, though.
9:50 pm
rururocks

most people are surprised by how they can taste quality in wines and it wouldn't be lost on someone.. see it all the time
9:51 pm
72 Temple Owl

i was turned off by my brothers BIL - he is a wine snob and i am not a wine drinker.
9:52 pm
rururocks

I don't care for wine snob's either.. ruins the whole experience
9:52 pm
rururocks

snobs
9:52 pm
72 Temple Owl

i do know i do not like oaky or tannins. but i drank a chilean red that was not bad. had never heard of the variety.
9:52 pm
rururocks

wine is just food.. goes with dinner.. nothing snobby about it
9:52 pm
rururocks

carmeniere?
9:53 pm
72 Temple Owl

well, i brought a bottle of local to easter dinner - they go through bottles and bottles - and he and my bro turned up their noses.
9:53 pm
72 Temple Owl

perhaps that was it.
9:53 pm
rururocks

that's too bad. sometimes it is the simplest wines that taste the best with dinner.
9:54 pm
72 Temple Owl

now the cab was to oaky tannin
9:54 pm
rururocks

yes.. cabernet is loaded with tannins usually
9:54 pm
72 Temple Owl

as as most reds for me
9:54 pm
72 Temple Owl

well see, i DO know something.
9:55 pm
rururocks

I like to drink simpler wines nowadays.. my food choices have changed
9:56 pm
72 Temple Owl

i mean, i understand if my bro did not like it, not everyone like the same thing. but his BIL gave me a glass of epensive to show me the difference.
9:56 pm
72 Temple Owl

that was tacky
9:56 pm
rururocks

that's just snobby.. and to be honest . .pretty condescending
9:57 pm
rururocks

I like to let people drink what they like and have some variety
9:57 pm
72 Temple Owl

well, he can be at times, though a great cook and generous host.
9:58 pm
rururocks

It is all about personal taste and not price.. if it is something you like..that's good enough for me
9:58 pm
rururocks

we had the nicest wine in BC and it was one of the least expensive wines on the list.. Jilli, Flosey, Bugs, and Saanich all enjoyed it.. and it was really cheap
9:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

i notice it more when he has had a lot of wine.
9:59 pm
rururocks

hmmm.. brings out his bad personality then :D
10:00 pm
72 Temple Owl

it was very nice for the galleries to accommoate a large group like ours plus the usual folks just strilling about.
10:00 pm
rururocks

I would say .. try this.. and leave it up to you to like it or not. I would never say you should like this better.. it's more prestigious and more expensive.. that's just moronic
10:00 pm
72 Temple Owl

though i did not see anything that I lusted after.
10:00 pm
rururocks

I like art walks.. very fun thing to do.. they do them in Sacramento and it's a lot of fun.
10:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

the ones in philly are great. we went to one last year but it stalled when we found a bar with $5 martinis. ANd sweord swallowers. that is VERY weird.
10:02 pm
rururocks

$5 martinis sound good
10:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

to see that close up is just bizarre.
10:03 pm

I couldn't watch that
10:03 pm
72 Temple Owl

it is negroni month in town.
10:03 pm

I love negronis
10:03 pm
72 Temple Owl

well it is like a car wreck - hard to look away, but i would not seek it out.
10:03 pm
rururocks

I love the bitter
10:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

i do as well, sweet drinks are not for me.
10:05 pm
rururocks

I can't think of one sweet drink I like
10:06 pm
rururocks

maybe an occasional manhattan
10:06 pm

one every 3 or so years
