You need to get Babble Expert and have a PC

2:23 pm

penquis

look below the grid ....see the links?....click on Lickety....

2:23 pm

no, you can list without expert....

2:24 pm

if you scroll way down on the lickety page, there is info on how to cut and paste your words into Lickety...

2:24 pm

MRSWHISKI2

yesterday someone was helping me put the 2 lists side by side. I wasn't able to figure that out.

2:25 pm

MRSWHISKI2

I can cut & paste to lickety but I'd like to put them side by side

2:25 pm

penquis

you don't have to.....but you can just resize your website page....open browser again to Lickety and resize that....then put them side by side....OR ....just cut and paste per Lickety's instructions....

2:26 pm

penquis

i believe you have to open the browser twice....then resize each by clicking on that little resize button in upper right.....then dragging the borders to where you want them....

2:27 pm

penquis

and then moving the windows to a side by side position...

2:29 pm

MRSWHISKI2

thks for the help penquis - now - which little button lol

2:29 pm

penquis

it's just to the left of the X on my browser...upper right...

2:32 pm

MRSWHISKI2

stupid computer doesn't know how to do that....I'll get my son to help me later...thanks for your patience!

2:32 pm

So. when Soodle the Younger took off to the US of A for the summer, I was a bit apprehensive, but I consoled myself that at least the house would be clean and tidy. Turns out - I am the messy one, and the house is just as untidy and grubby as always. I also discovered that I am quite happy with my own company, and now a bit apprehensive about her return.... Go figure!

5:03 pm

Bugsaw

good observations, Soodle. You are preparing yourself for the future a bit at a time.

5:03 pm

the election shennanigans must be a real eye opener for her

5:09 pm

Soodle

Nan, she has had such amazing experiences, she will remember this till the day she dies! I envy the youngsters of today who can do this sort of stuff. Back in the olden days, people like me left school, got a job, got married, had kids... end of story.

5:10 pm

Soodle

Ha!!! The election shennanigans are entertaining the whole world!

5:10 pm

cybernan

yes - a whole new world - and even when the marry and have families there is no change in the lifestyle -- they just haul the kids along

5:11 pm

Soodle

I am loving the way Mr Trump met with the Mexican president yesterday, and seemed pretty normal, then returned to Arizona to his usual bombastic self. It is just fascinating to watch...

5:12 pm

cybernan

I'm surprised the Republican party leaders haven't found away to have him committed

5:15 pm

Soodle

Ha!! The big news in this part of the world is that (accordingly to the European Union men in suits) the Apple Corporation owes Ireland 13 billion dollars! Which would effectively wipe out the Irish National Debt. The Irish Government are saying Nope! Apple owe us nothing.... Holy Moses....

5:17 pm

Bugsaw

That sounds pretty made up

5:19 pm

Soodle

Apparently, Apple, who have a significant base here have paid 0.005% tax over the past 10 years, due to a 'sweetheart deal' with the Government here. The EU have declared such a deal to be illegal, and have declared that 13 billion, plus interest, is due. There is consternation here!

5:21 pm

Bugsaw

that makes more sense. Is the government declining to pursue it because they made a deal and are being ethical? That would be a first for any government in my opinion.

5:21 pm
