hi, all

12:42 am

melonheadjujube

Joy in Mudville tonite

12:43 am

grannyrose

hi melon. what's up?

12:45 am

melonheadjujube

Cavs won. CLE is starved for a championship team. Last one was '48 Indians. Sports in other words.

12:46 am

melonheadjujube

NBA best of seven. We evened it up tonight vs Golden State Warriors despite a serious injury to one of the starters.

12:48 am

grannyrose

sounds like an exciting game.

12:49 am

ARB

And with an Israeli coach!

12:51 am

melonheadjujube

Indeed, ARB! I actually went to the two exhibition games that Maccabi Tel Aviv played v the Cavs. The first one was 4 seasons ago, before LeBron announced he was leaving CLE, so the oly people in attendance were from Jewish communities as far away as Detroit and Pitts burgh.

12:52 am

melonheadjujube

The exhibition game v Maccabi this past fall was another affair entirely, given LeBon's return to CLE after his 3 years in Miami. He's from Akron, and thus a local guy.

12:52 am

ARB

It's amazing here here in ISrael -- the coverage given to the Cleveland team. It's another of the ISraeli teams, as afar as the press is concerned!

12:53 am

melonheadjujube

I saw on the Haaretz website!

12:53 am

flosey

fw - used MW to find last word - ad5

12:54 am

melonheadjujube

Both the .com and the .co.il sites!

12:54 am

flosey

hmmm, means curved, or hooked

12:55 am

melonheadjujube

OK, nbt, nbs, got the 7, and halfway thru. Mediocrity attained, and I need to get up early.

12:55 am

melonheadjujube

nite all! [poof]

I'm off to bed as well, goodnight all

3:08 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} and good morning sprite.

3:09 am

grannyrose

i slept better last night. how about you?

3:12 am

sprite

I am so glad, darling. You really needed it. I am ok, slept well too.

3:13 am

grannyrose

yay you, sprite. and the body? how's the pain?

3:13 am

sprite

mwah. My back is achy, has been for a couple of days. But otherwise ok :) How was your day?

3:15 am

grannyrose

not too bad. it has been a public holiday here... queen's birthday. so we couldn't go out and do a lot. so have paddled around doing bits and pieces.

3:15 am

sprite

happy birthday, queen :) And nice, a relaxed paddling day.

3:16 am

sprite

*cringes while entering sp4/6-5/14

3:19 am

grannyrose

i know. so did i.... how does enable get away with it?

3:19 am

sprite

no idea. If I got to rewrite it, I'

3:20 am

sprite

dI'd remove all the discriminating words. Keep all the weirdos. And add quite a few new ones... lilke internet and email.

3:20 am

sprite

sorry for the typos

3:21 am

grannyrose

dcseain was saying that there is much newer version of enable available, but babble doesn't use it.

3:21 am

sprite

yeah that is true, but in the newer version a lot of our babblets are gone. I would hate to lose our babblets.

3:23 am

sprite

plus, drG is not at all inclined to put any more energy into babble. He was going to make a whole new version of babble, but I haven'

3:23 am

grannyrose

not the babblets!! come on dr god, we can't lose the babblets!!

3:23 am

sprite

haven't heard about that for years now... guess it is at least 5 years back that there was talk about it

3:32 am

sprite

squirrel?

3:34 am

rubyfoo

allo?

3:34 am

sprite

3:35 am

sprite

*hmpf I had already said something and no answer*

3:36 am

grannyrose

3:36 am

sprite

*giggles* Right. Love you too :D

3:36 am

grannyrose

* giggles * ( whew )

3:37 am

sprite

ruby, darling... any news?

3:38 am

rubyfoo

was good over the weekend, but losing it today. Very scared and weepy

3:38 am

mattygroves

Can anyone give me a steer on the ad5/16?

3:38 am

sprite

no wonder. *holding you in a warm embrace* You go right ahead and weep, my friend.

3:39 am

sprite

hi matty. Looks like that is one of my missing A's

3:40 am

grannyrose

ad5. ad + most of male sibling of your parent

3:40 am

mattygroves

Thank you Rose

3:40 am

sprite

right. thanks rose

3:41 am

mattygroves

Is the au 5/16 just as odd?

3:42 am

sprite

yeah. That one is a babblet.

3:42 am

sprite

au + male parent

3:42 am

mattygroves

Thanks :)

3:42 am

grannyrose

yup. au + abbreviation for father

3:42 am

sprite

yvw :)

3:42 am

grannyrose

or what sprite said..... lolll

3:42 am

sprite

lol

3:43 am

sprite

aw ruby... still holding you, darling. Wish I could be there for you in the flesh.

3:44 am

grannyrose

so do i ruby. * hugging the bits sprite misses *

3:45 am

sprite

I have been meaning to ask you, ruby... if at any point you want me to come, let me know and we'll see what can be arranged.

3:45 am

rubyfoo

lost another pound, down to 93

3:46 am

rubyfoo

thank you for your offer, Sprite, for the mo', John has offered to come at any time and for however long. He is really stepping up

3:47 am

sprite

wow I am really happy with that. That is much better, your son with you. I think he is regretting his cavalier attitude.

3:47 am

grannyrose

so pleased son has realised you are not putting it on.

3:47 am

sprite

anyway, the offer stands, so don't hesitate to change your mind, ok?

3:48 am

sprite

snap, rose :)

3:48 am

rubyfoo

I think he was in denial, LIKE E, AND DIDN'T WANT TO CONSIDER THAT I MIGHT BE SICK AGAIN. I RUINED HIS SENIOR YEAR AT UNIVERSITY

3:48 am

rubyfoo

sorry for caps

3:49 am

sprite

you didn't ruin anything, ruby, the cancer did.

3:50 am

grannyrose

oh, for goodness sake ruby. you must stop blaming yourself for that. it's history sweetie. and if he still brings it up, tell him to let it go.

3:51 am

sprite

it is pretty simple, actually. It is ok to feel guilty (or blame someone) for things done on purpose. But with things out of our circle of influence, we can only feel regret that it happened that way.

3:51 am

sprite

sorry to preach

3:52 am

grannyrose

exactly sprite.

3:52 am

rubyfoo

no,he has never brought it up but it eats at me

3:53 am

sprite

in that case, not sorry to preach, grin. take it to heart, darling. Forgive yourself, with all of your heart. It was none of your doing. It happened to you, and it happened to him, and that is life.

3:55 am

sprite

what makes it hard is that it is 'easier' to feel guilty than to feel powerless. But as far as fate goes, we ARE powerless. Our power does not lie in influencing what happens to us, but in how we handle what happens to us.

3:55 am

sprite

*steps down from soapbox now*

3:56 am

grannyrose

* helps sprite down *

5:49 am

jzw

Whenever you name pops up I hear Simon singing

5:50 am

mattygroves

"A holiday, a holiday and the first one of the year..."

5:50 am

jzw

Wow. They never come to the states anymore :(

5:50 am

sukee

5:50 am

sukee

I see Matty is also a Doctor Who fan, as I am :)

5:50 am

mattygroves

I saw them fairly recently (a couple of months ago) at the Union Chapel in Islington. Sukee, they are Fairport Convention, a British folk rock band

5:51 am

mattygroves

Yep, I'm that too :) I'm a bit of a geek, really ;)

5:51 am

sukee

Okay, may have heard of them before actuallly.

5:52 am

jzw

I think they invented Folk Rock. You an RT fan, too?

5:52 am

mattygroves

https://youtu.be/JFLE2eeZB3k - about 40 seconds in, I'm the blond(ish) in the white shirt clapping enthusiastically

5:53 am

sukee

And there goes the right hand column.

5:53 am

mattygroves

I like some of Richard Thompson - he got a bit self indulgent. I like Steeleye Span, Jethro Tull, Bellowhead, Show of Hands, Dar Williams, Mad Agnes, Mumford & Sons, The Strawbs....

5:53 am

mattygroves

Oh, and Pentangle

5:54 am

sukee

Wow, I haven't heard a lot of those names in years :)

5:55 am

mattygroves

Two words left - DE6/33 and du5/16

5:55 am

jzw

The girl with the sunglasses? You were so close. I agree about Richard. I can listen to about half. Persuassion gets to me everytime

5:56 am

mattygroves

Sunglasses on the top of my head, yep :)

5:57 am

jzw

Clue: for du you'll feel like one when you get it.

5:57 am

rubyfoo

5:58 am

rubyfoo

Also loved Almot Famou, but the music in this oen was more satisfying

5:58 am

mattygroves

I'm not sure I know what that film would be in English...

5:59 am

rubyfoo

And I love Billl Nighy and Philip Seymour Hoffman

5:59 am

mattygroves

Yarp, I do feel like a du5/16. I blame last night's Whiskey.

sukee

5:59 am

jzw

There is a new scam??

6:24 am

crosshair

Still trying to recover from the last one:(

6:25 am

rururocks

Not really.. but i figured she could use some more free dough being a crook and all

6:26 am

dan2bit

un6 - dangerous

6:26 am

rururocks

She has the balls to still play here and lurk

6:26 am

crosshair

Now that is what frost my cojone more than anything else

6:27 am

rururocks

I love her innocent profile...

6:28 am

crosshair

But that becomes like acid over time. All it will do is eat away at the container holding it. So, I live and learn.

6:29 am

crosshair

ru, could you email me. I would love to know her new "handle"

6:30 am

rururocks

Same handle.. she is playing now

6:30 am

crosshair

I once had all her particulars, and as I recall, she is actually a teacher.

6:30 am

rururocks

Look at who is online

Anniebrook

Yesterday when I found wildcat in "who's online" her name was in black so her profile could not be opened

7:00 am

Anniebrook

Crossy, did you send her money?

7:08 am

crosshair

I did, but Not as much as some who I know lost 5 times as much:(

7:09 am

crosshair

Thankfully, there are now donation programs out there to prevent just this disaster from happening ever again

7:10 am

crosshair

Biab. Must head to class and fire up the computer over there.

7:10 am

Anniebrook

I need to get out early today so I am going to shower. As far as "wiildcat" goes, I am going to let this episode die an unnatural death. However, I wonder if wildcat is an actual person or another false identity.

7:11 am

Anniebrook

Something just doesnt sit right. I will never know so I have to let it go but it was lousy from the start.

7:12 am

MollyL

Paypal is always the most direct and easy way to send someone money. The part of the "Wildcat scam" I never understood was why people were sending checks to Wildcat instead of sending money directly to the person in need.

7:14 am

Anniebrook

I dont think I sent money to Wildcat.

7:14 am

bichon

I don't even remember a plea for money. Maybe I'm just a skeptic from New York City

7:15 am

Anniebrook

Yes, there was a plea.

7:15 am

periwinkle

good morning all. I had a great day yesterday. Went to NYC and saw Beautiful!!! It was wonderful. I LOVED it.

7:15 am

Uneaixoise

how FUN!! :-)

7:15 am

bichon

good for you peri

7:16 am

Anniebrook

glad you had a good time, peri

7:16 am

Uneaixoise

loved watching the Tony Awards last nite -- great show!

7:16 am

Kaplan the Magne

Why would anyone send money to someone on the internet anyway? Send it to me if you feel the compulsion. This is a plea.

7:16 am

Anniebrook

bye, see you all later. Writing a check for Kaplan now.

7:17 am

MollyL

I agree Kaplan. Sending money to a complete stranger is taking a HUGE risk. And whether you think people here are "nice" or not, they are complete strangers.

7:17 am

bichon

Good to know Kaplan, I'll open my Paypal account now

7:17 am

MollyL

*Gets in line for the Annie/Bichon donations

7:19 am

bichon

My mama taught me well. I remember when we lived in the project in NY and my mother actually had a cleaning woman every week. She used to hide her cash in a rolled up sock. She said it was because "they steal"

Judi

Good morning, peeps!

8:15 am

Judi

None of you are getting any money from me. Moral support, prayers, good natured ribbing, flirting... but nothing more.

8:18 am

Judi

Tough love, y'know.

8:19 am

MollyL

*Crosses Judi off the "soft touch" list

8:19 am

Judi

8:20 am

MollyL

The unfortunate thing about the whole Wildcat debacle is that people were trying to do something nice.

8:42 am

penquis

hello....like your pic, molly...

8:46 am

Judi

Fireworks!

8:46 am

penquis

congrats!

8:47 am

Judi

I like your pic, penquis. So, you're shacking up with lobsters now?

8:47 am

penquis

yup... ;o)....the place is about 15 min. from where i live...

8:48 am

Judi

Mmmmm. Lobster. Maine is beautiful. Gotta get there some day.

8:49 am

penquis

hopefully you will....if you do, make it all the way up to the midcoast....southern Maine has nice beaches but the scenery is nicer here....

8:49 am

Judi

We want to go to Acadia too.

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Acadia NP is on my bucket list.

8:50 am

penquis

yes, that's very nice, too.....i am between the Bar Harbor area (Acadia area) and Portland to the south...

8:50 am

Scrabbler

One of my med school classmates lives in Kittery.

8:50 am

crosshair

Just googled Acaidia, scrabby. i can see why it is on your bucket list;)

8:51 am

penquis

ah...very southern Maine....near the NH border...

8:51 am

Scrabbler

Yes, she works in Portsmouth, NH.

8:51 am

penquis

i like Portsmouth....a nice city....

8:52 am

penquis

largest town in my county has 7600 people in the winter....a little more in the summer....

8:53 am

Judi

Hi, Scrabbs.

8:53 am

Judi

We just have to time our trip for when there are no black flies and no snow. Narrows the window a bit.

8:54 am

penquis

if you avoid May and June, should have no trouble with black flies....we see them less on the coast than inland, too...September is usually very nice....we get more tourists in Sept. than in June now...

8:55 am

crosshair

Mrs and I did 9K on the Petun trails on Blue Mountain yesterday, Scrabby;) I can hardly hobble along today:(

8:55 am

Judi

Yep. Am sure the fall colors are spectacular as well.

8:56 am

penquis

yes, but here they peak in October....usually the second week....they peak earlier inland....

8:56 am

Judi

Oh, Crossy. With your knees in such bad shape? Silly human.

8:57 am

crosshair

No, the hikes helps my knees. The rest of me is a wrech, however;)

My knees are at the 'use them, or loose them" stage

8:58 am

Judi

lol. Yeah. I hear ya. Hubby and I actually moved two couches this past weekend and my back is actually not giving me too much trouble. Was flirting with disaster, but tried to be very, very careful.

8:59 am

Judi

Apologies for using "actually" twice in one sentence.

9:00 am

My knees are exactly the reason i have embraced hiking to the extent i have. Sure beats paying a gym membership. But the ole body is still playing catch-up

9:00 am

Bursitis

9:28 am

crosshair

hurts like a bugger some days:(

9:29 am

cybernan

check around - had that in my knees before the arthritis set in -- found a physio/chiropractic practice that gave cold laser treatments for it - really helped

9:31 am

cybernan

failing that -- try an cream with arnica in it --- I found Arnicare cream by Boiron to be the best (London Drugs or a health food store should have it)

9:36 am

cybernan

I do wish enable would remove the politically incorrect and more crude 4-letter words from its dictionary

9:37 am

cybernan

they are not really words -- just crude and objectionable slang

9:41 am

cybernan

*!* ta da *!* - guess I'm here by myself (certainly seem to be talking to myself!)

I'm a wreck today, waiting to get past tomorrow (or wrech) AS cROSSY SAYS

And right on cue with the snake comment, here I am. Sign.

12:51 pm

The snake comment from 2 hours ago. You ARE right on cue.

12:51 pm

car.eeyore

Well, the chog hasn't moved

12:53 pm

MollyL

♥♥No worries♥♥!!!!!

12:53 pm

car.eeyore

How are you today, Molly?

12:54 pm

MollyL

Not bad for a Monday, and you? Last I read you were facing a plethora of health ailments.

12:55 pm

car.eeyore

I'm literally sitting in my chair wincing right now. Pain clinic finally returned my call, but my phone died whilst I was at work. Waiting for it to recharge enough so I can call them now.

12:55 pm

car.eeyore

Other than that, I am good though!

12:57 pm

MollyL

That is kind of like "Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the show?"

12:57 pm

car.eeyore

Yup..exactly

12:59 pm

MollyL

What does a pain clinic do?

1:00 pm

car.eeyore

They can give me a cortisone shot in my back or some other modality.

1:00 pm

car.eeyore

At this point, the pain is the biggest issue.

1:01 pm

MollyL

Has the cause of the pain been diagnosed?

1:01 pm

car.eeyore

No accurately

1:01 pm

car.eeyore

*not

1:02 pm

car.eeyore

Its falling under the heading of sciatic nerve pain but we don't know why it is so bad and where it is coming from

1:02 pm

car.eeyore

Stats for the C please?

1:02 pm

MollyL

Have you been checked for fused discs?

1:03 pm

MollyL

ci 5/18

1:03 pm

car.eeyore

I had an MRI...have protruding discs but not fused

1:04 pm

MollyL

Oh well, herniated discs would cause a lot of pain.

1:04 pm

car.eeyore

I am a medical mystery....

1:05 pm

car.eeyore

ty

1:05 pm

MollyL

That is not a medical mystery. There are treatments for herniated discs.

1:06 pm

car.eeyore

They said I don't have one of those, though

1:07 pm

MollyL

Well, any time the disc is protruding or bulging, or called herniated, it's all pretty much the same thing.

1:07 pm

car.eeyore

Oh...they didn't think the protrusions would be the cause, but I will certainly ask them now!

1:08 pm

MollyL

Good luck

1:09 pm

car.eeyore

1:20 pm

bichon

Mr. Bich had a herniated disc and he was laid out flat until the swelling subsided enough to get some sort of shots

1:26 pm

MollyL

Alternative treatment such as accupuncture and accupressure help with disc problems. But you have to be a believer in that kind of treatment.

1:26 pm

MollyL

Most people want shots and doctors.

1:27 pm

bichon

It sure cured him, but he has to do back strengthening exercises for the rest of his life

1:27 pm

I'm typing through my tears hearing about all these back issues

You didn't get it?

1:50 pm

car.eeyore

Molly...Pain clinic can see me on Thursday!!!!!

1:51 pm

car.eeyore

That will just be for the consult, but the original hospital clinic couldn't see me until July.

1:52 pm

bichon

I remember that the orthopedist who give the shots couldn't see Mr. Bich mor 6 weeks

1:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

that is so amazing...that the wait is so long. what are you supposed to do until then?

1:55 pm

bichon

abuse pain meds

1:55 pm

car.eeyore

And the neuro/spine doctor can see me on July 23rd! Gettin' it done today!

Hi. There was an american reporter on the radio today, and I suddenly realised that I "hear" all babblers speaking with an english accent.

3:08 pm

ChrissieDee

Shame we can't enjoy the voices

3:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

a babbler sent me a sound clip of what her local accent sounds like. it was so funny!

3:12 pm

ChrissieDee

I have a Liverpool accent, though not too strong

3:15 pm

ChrissieDee

Did you send one back TO?

3:23 pm

harpjane

I haven't finished. I just got here.

3:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh gosh no! I have a mishmash of two strong east coast accents - NY/NJ and Philadelphia.

3:33 pm

stidgmere

We're west coast U.S. We don't think we have an accent.

3:35 pm

ChrissieDee

I love hearing americans doing english accents in films

3:36 pm

ChrissieDee

We don't think we have accents either :)

3:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

kinda like the duggar family?

6:48 pm

MollyL

Oh God, I hope not

6:50 pm

rururocks

well.. God would have something to do with it I guess

6:58 pm

MollyL

I am not sure how much God has to do with fake Christians like the Duggars

7:00 pm

dan2bit

I hope we're not nearly as hypocritical as the Duggars

7:01 pm

Coralie is miss2bit's 6th first cousin, but the first one on the maternal side

7:05 pm

nor as perverted as the duggars

Next thing you know you will be referring people to the A2Zed wordfinder

7:20 pm

rururocks

too many ads on A2z.. makes my computer crash

7:22 pm

MollyL

Maybe try installing an ad blocker. I use Ad Pro and never see all the pesky ads

7:24 pm

MollyL

Sorry, Adblock Pro

7:36 pm

rururocks

how do I do that?

7:37 pm

MollyL

Do you use Chrome as your browser?

7:39 pm

rururocks

no

7:40 pm

MollyL

Well, then that won't work. AdBlock Pro is a free Chrome download that blocks ads on all sites and in any email programs you use.

7:40 pm

rururocks

ah ok

7:41 pm

MollyL

Firefox probably has a similar feature. If you do a Google search on ad blocker Firefox I bet you will find some. If you are using Internet Exploder, you have my deepest sympathy.

7:43 pm

rururocks

Sympathy accepted

7:44 pm

rururocks

time to have a glass of vino.. and grill the beef :D

7:45 pm

MollyL

Internet Exploder is the browser king of pop up ads and other annoying tag ons. I strongly suggest you try another browser, just for a while and see the difference.

7:45 pm

rururocks

maybe i'll check out chrome

7:45 pm

rururocks

i'll try to figure out how to load it.
