sprite

ah, found it
1:05 am
rururocks

good for you.. took me ten minutes to figure it out
1:06 am
sprite

looks german. Different 3rd letter than I expected. It means 'to subject (steel or other metals) to a hardening process that increases its strength and improves its wear properties'
1:06 am
rururocks

kind of like Viagra for metal?
1:07 am
sprite

probably one of the times that being dutch actually helps, lol.
1:07 am
sprite

yeah, though hopefully the effect does not wear off that fast
1:09 am
rururocks

yeah.. you don't want those rods to wear out
1:10 am

2:19 am
gapeach

I can't have my feet and legs down for the driving time...poor circulation. I can no longer fly. I'll have to remember and the good times we had. Thank you for caring, rose.
2:20 am
grannyrose

3:03 am
gapeach

I'm about two and a half hours from the Atlantic coast....several years ago one hit Savahhah and Charleston and we had really high winds and rain. I got into the bath tub (with two little dogs and a very heavy comfortor

Double yum!
3:46 am
rubyfoo

Do you know the "sangria trick"?
3:46 am
mattygroves

Nooooo....do tell...?
3:47 am
rubyfoo

The night before, slice some oranges, cover with sugar and then add a bottle of brandy or cognac
3:47 am
mattygroves

Oooh - what a great idea!
3:47 am
rubyfoo

That way, when you add thye red wine andc ice cubes, it doesn't become watery
3:48 am
rubyfoo

It's strong and very tasty
3:49 am
mattygroves

Mmmmmmmm. I'm salivating at the thought. I'd better go clean up the drool - I shall get in the shower!

scrabs, that Scottish poem was fascinating yesterday--just before you came on, and I'd left. If you ever want a camo in Vermont close to the green mountain trails, I have one sitting there on a small lake good for kayaking. with a pair of loons.
8:34 am
Scrabbler

That is a big step up, Mama.
8:35 am

8:35 am
RoundBarn

camp, that is, as cottages are called in Vermont. Good swimming, good fireplace and wood, but at present no toilet--we used a porta-p this summer while trying to figure what to do environmentally and economically--to replace the unfisxable and now unallowed plumbing--
8:35 am
Scrabbler

Penquis, I LOVE LL Bean clothing--that's all I wear is casual clothes, at work too.
8:36 am
Scrabbler

RB, I think about your camp often. I need more time to travel yet I need to work and earn money for fun.
8:37 am

with a slight detour, you could go the flagship store in Freeport....ope 24 hrs. a day, seven days a week, all year round...
8:37 am

*ope....geez....starting to use Babble words in conversation*....
8:38 am

I intentionally looked for Freeport but knowing that there is another store on our route makes me HAPPY.
8:38 am
RoundBarn

scrabs, I follow you on chat. Had I an address I'd send you books--mine are full of cow diseases--some human ones--we sneaked out on our last day of measles quarentine to go to a corn husking contest at the next farm--
8:38 am
Scrabbler

Now use the word yince.
8:39 am
penquis

well it's not as big as the flagship store....and in Freeport, you have an outlet store as well as the flagship store...
8:39 am
Scrabbler

I can give your daughter my address, RB, as we are friends on FB. I just saw the story about Shelby.
8:39 am

hah....yince you suggested it, perhaps i will... ;o)
8:40 am
Scrabbler

I finished yesterday's grid last evening and had to search for some odd words.
8:42 am
RoundBarn

I don't see facebook, the kids didn't want me to get addicted--I better ask her about Shelby. Do give her your address on facebook. While I still drove to Vermont (now I fly unless a grandkid drives me) I went right by you--hadn't known of you then, though Rasta must have.
8:44 am
RoundBarn

rasta, you seem to be on line unless out milking a goat. Tell me about Shelby.
8:46 am
RoundBarn

does yince mean since, too? In the line I grew up with, it meant once--and in the poem welki provided as its source
8:46 am
penquis

no, i was just joking around...
8:47 am
RoundBarn

a word for an instrument that punctures a cow with bloat is in the grid again today--not your everyday word. maybe its used for something else, too.
8:48 am

I will let Rasta tell you about Shelby.

10.) Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath…. This made him a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

(note to ruru: i had to take bax to the vet today. while i was there, he told me that he'd attended a seminar where they were speaking about CADI (which is now called CytoPoint, i think). it's available here now, or will be shortly, and he's going to get back to me with pricing. He says some vets prefer it over Apoquel. So thank you for telling me about it.)

evening all - miss2bit's first day of 2nd grade was a hit!
7:55 pm
welki

a french satirist
7:56 pm
welki

hi, dan - 2nd grade already - and she likes it! you've prepared her well
7:56 pm

Dan, how did miss 2bit get old enough to be in second grade?
7:56 pm
nrkii

got it, thank you
7:56 pm
dan2bit

thanks! wht, I blinked :-)
7:56 pm
welki

maybe not satirist - a comedian, perhaps
7:58 pm
penquis

could you please clue that differently?...it's one of the two words i have let...
7:58 pm
penquis

left...
7:58 pm
dan2bit

fa5 slapstick, add a fancy french suffix
7:59 pm
dan2bit

she was a little apprehensive - the program she's in is partial spanish immersion - she gets her science and math instruction from one teacher in the morning in spanish, and reading and writing from another in the afternoon
7:59 pm
penquis

hmmm....
8:00 pm
welki

this is her first year in immersion?
8:00 pm
dan2bit

her 1st grade Spanish teacher was not great, but Senora Obondo has made a fantastic first impression
8:00 pm
nrkii

penquis, think of the French word for mister... last two letters
8:00 pm
LeslieAnn

what a smartypants!
8:00 pm
welki

aha - so she's already there, just a new year (with a better teacher)
8:00 pm
penquis

i am done...
8:00 pm
penquis

ty cluers....
8:01 pm
dan2bit

yes, and a household with no spanish speakers, so there's been backsliding (yay pen!)
8:02 pm
penquis

ty, dan...
8:03 pm
welki

my eldest daughter took spanish in junior high and high school and decided, at age 16, that she wanted to do a year of foreign exchange in argentina - was she surprised! (but came home bilingual)
8:04 pm
dan2bit

looking back I should have said "reading and writing in english - it's a great program for her classmates who speak Spanish at home as well.
8:04 pm
welki

would you and mrs. 2bit consider pulling her out of the program? or part of it?
8:05 pm
dan2bit

we might consider it, but it's so so so good for flexible brain development. Even if she never becomes bilingual
8:07 pm
dan2bit

weirdly, 2nd grade is sort of a high stakes testing year in our county system - she may have opportunities for academic acceleration in English that she might not get from the immersion program. It could be a tough choice next year
8:07 pm
wht

Maybe you and mrs 2bit can learn Spanish as well. :^)
8:08 pm
dan2bit

family squad goals
8:08 pm
welki

that's a brilliant idea, wht - i'm sitting here thinking i'd feel so inadequate if i hadn't been able to help with homework
8:09 pm
dan2bit

I have enough French in the back of my brain that I can get by at this level, and mrs2bit has about the same level of Spanish. Aunt Debbie, who lives close by, is pretty fluent for a gringo :-)
8:10 pm
dan2bit

but sooner than later she will pass us by
8:11 pm

clue for the fu6,33 please.
8:11 pm
welki

8:12 pm

When they become a teen-ager, they think they are smarter than you. A little bit later it is true.
8:13 pm

ty welki. I guess I am not twisted enough.
8:13 pm
welki

that word really does wind itself around the board, wht
8:14 pm
dan2bit

I read some fascinating research summary a while back about how necessary that teen "rebellion" is to their mature stages of brain development and adult success
8:15 pm
dan2bit

the hormones have a purpose :-)
8:16 pm
welki

that was just someone trying to rationalize the hysteria
8:16 pm
dan2bit

hahaha welki, maybe.
8:17 pm
welki

although i'd probably say 10-12 was worse than the teens
