Angelsong; maybe you should add those in the *other* box?
1:36 am
juniperberet
Poor Angel's going to have so much to retype :(
1:36 am
Nef
Stop! Angel, wake up!
1:37 am
broll
she must have chat turned off, but you'd think she'd notice her words were not going in!
1:38 am
Nef
I’m just going to have to slide chat off the screen now.
1:40 am
Nef
I just got here; had to take mydtr in to urgent care for a kidney infection& that took forever. How long has Angelsong been in the wrong box here?
1:44 am
Jencatd
at least 15 minutes
1:46 am
Nef
And no one could stop her?
1:46 am
Jencatd
I mentioned it and got no response
1:50 am
Nef
I wonder if she’s using a faulty program? i think she uses Babble Expert usually; I’ve never seen her do thais before.
1:52 am
SummerBreeze44
She has done this several times in the past but never for that long a time.
1:53 am
Jencatd
The add box shouldn't be sending single words to chat. Maybe she just clicked on the chat instead of using the add box?
1:56 am
Nef
IDK, I’m a Mac person & there isn’t a Babble Expert for macs. 😕
1:58 am
Jencatd
In Babble Expert there's a separate dialog box that can send stuff to the game and clues or to chat. Chat's only activated from there if you put more than one word in that box.
2:00 am
Nef
Ok; so that probably isn’t the problem then.
2:05 am
Christine
I thought of emailing her, but there's no address in her profile?
2:06 am

2:07 pm
cosdem
lol at this point i dont care what he wants ... if it bothers him so much he can come back :P
2:07 pm
Trifioso
ok. how to say this in code? Someone at the lobster bake we had brought a vape with colorado juice in it. my poor hubs gave it a go, and ended up more baked than the lobsters. it was HILARIOUS
2:07 pm
cosdem
lol oh i havent had that i should try that out!
2:08 pm
Trifioso
my only review is observational - hit him like a freight train.
2:09 pm
cosdem
lol gotta love colorado..we're one of a kind
2:09 pm
Trifioso
i really enjoyed our trip there, excepting the two days lost to beloved
2:09 pm
Trifioso
beloved's altitude sickness. that is BAD business
2:09 pm
cosdem
didnt bother me when i moved here... sure bothered ryan though at first
2:10 pm
Trifioso
I rode a horse through garden of the gods and it was, hands down, one of the most joyous afternoons. What a place! We did all we could, and I left knowing we had done one one thousandth of all the things Colorado has to offer. AMAZING place!
2:10 pm
cherlyq
any clues on mi6:24?
2:11 pm
cosdem
i live 10 mins from the garden of the gods. it is such a gorgeous place
2:11 pm
Trifioso
I had to adjust my rather massachusetts-sized thinking - I was ON FIRE to go to the four states place. imagine my surprise upon learning it was a 13 hour drive! 13 hours driving here takes me through 8 states

2:13 pm
cosdem
winter time it is beautiful there. snow capped massive pine trees
2:13 pm
cosdem
truly aptly named.
2:13 pm
MollyL
Ha! I read that as "attitude" sickness. Was trying to figure out what that meant.
2:13 pm
cherlyq
oh did not realize there was more than one, I need the last one, stumped cause it comes from the bottom M
2:14 pm
Trifioso
I am shocked the religious nutjobs haven't campaigned to change the name, since they are SO SURE their god is the only one
2:14 pm
cosdem
lol yes yes I do have attitude sickness.. it comes from being so close to the end of school year
2:14 pm
Trifioso
LOLOLOLOL you are on fire today cosdem! I have another three weeks to go - you
2:15 pm
cosdem
yeah we're colorado springs. home of jerry falwell, ted nugent and focus on the family.
2:15 pm
MollyL
Oh dear, pity the poor liberals
2:15 pm
cosdem
yep... june 13 last full day.. june 14 2 hour staff breakfast/awards.. so i think its like 18 days to go.. 21 days til vegas
2:15 pm
cherlyq
got it ty
2:16 pm
Trifioso
yes!!! no such exciting plans here. We were supposed to get out june 17th, but a fire in the building caused us to miss a day in May, so we have to come back for the monday, tra lala
2:16 pm
MollyL
June 14 is the last day here too. I thought y'all out west got out earlier
2:17 pm
cosdem
so stupid we have to come in for 2 hours on that friday.. 8am-10am to eat dried up eggs and bacon and turn in our badges....
2:17 pm
cosdem
most schools in town here finish this week.. ours is a state school and we added 10 extra school days per year
2:17 pm
Trifioso
not to ask the big rude question, but - are you guaranteed a spot next year?
2:17 pm
MollyL
Blech, there is nothing worse than cafeteria breakfast
2:18 pm
cosdem
yeah.. due to huge turnover and me just finishing up my sixth year and my promotion last year.. i am now the most senior male on the team.
2:18 pm
Trifioso
I will be given a "letter of reasonalble assurance" and then not confirmation until august 20th. I am NOT happy
2:18 pm
Trifioso
congratulations!
2:19 pm
Trifioso
which reminds me....I should hit up school spring
2:20 pm
cosdem
ugh a few teachers get that note too.. im classified though . .. teachers are at will...
2:20 pm
MollyL
Oh yay for Cos. "Senior Male". *Throws confetti
2:21 pm
cosdem
senior male/only male
2:21 pm
Trifioso
and once again, NOTHING on school spring. sigh
2:22 pm
MollyL
In our county, teachers with seniority usually get extended work guarantees. Teachers aides have to wait to see if they come back from year to year.
2:23 pm
cosdem
in my old school where i was an aide it was like that.... but here im a state employee so im guaranteed a job. may not be at the school though but im guaranteed one. but idk even if i want to go back. idk if i want to stay in colorado. no friends no family...
2:24 pm
cosdem
but do i want to give up a state job with full benefits and retirement plan without a college degree? idk if thats smart.
2:24 pm
Soodle
Cos! Lovely to see you! Hope you are OK, bud. Trif! It happened!!! I’m a Gramma. Paul Junior (aka Son of Son if Soodle) arrived this morning. All well. I’d have settled for a wrinkly little troll, but we got a beautiful handsome little boy. How lucky am I?
2:24 pm
cosdem
congrats soodle!
2:25 pm
MollyL
Cos, think long and hard about giving up a job with so many benefits.
2:25 pm
zoozzoom
((Soodle)) Congratulations!
2:25 pm
cosdem

2:26 pm
Trifioso
soodle, I am THRILLED to hear this wonderful news!!!!! Welcome to the world, darling Paul!
2:26 pm
cosdem
i also have a house that is paid for.. idk if ill get that chance again either
2:27 pm
Trifioso
cosdem, it does sound like a good deal....I have a masters degree, 20 years of volunteer and vendor experience, a student loan that is crippling me and STILL don't have a classroom of my own.
2:28 pm
Trifioso
another woman from my grad program just finished her first year of full time teaching, and she is walking away. the administration and department head bullied her for the entire year, way worse than any student could have. the WORST
2:29 pm
cosdem
ghosts of the past is everywhere here
2:29 pm
Trifioso
i feel awful for her. she went in with such enthusiasm
2:29 pm
cosdem

i just want to move to a bungalow in key west and just live like they do in that movie the birdcage
2:32 pm
MollyL
I could definitely do the bungalow in Key West thing, if money would allow it.
2:33 pm
cosdem
perspective on life changes just like that... my boss asked me why i dont do much OT as I used to.. I told her I used to all the time and was never home.. look what happened? yeah.. no... ill work but ill try to enjoy life
2:33 pm
Soodle
Thank you all. Cos - for what it’s worth - If at all bearable, stick with the job that guarantees pension. My philosophy has always been work to live, not the other way round. If your job is ‘meh’ but allows you a reasonable lifestyle - suck it up. But then, I’m very conservative.
2:34 pm
cosdem
yeah thats what ill do.. i have 15-20 years til retirement. i can stick it up thil then.. ill be like 55 or 60 .. still young enough for key west
2:35 pm
cosdem
thats such a long time though to be alone lol
2:40 pm
BzznBea
41 left? Really? <sigh>
2:42 pm
Soodle
No no no!!! Stick with the job that facilitates annual trips to Key West, or beyond!! This is the (very recent) Granma in me speaking. Explore new horizons Cos. Carpe Diem
2:44 pm

3:39 pm
cosdem
Hank Hill would be disappointed. I do agree with you though.
3:39 pm
rururocks
The more carcinogens the better
3:39 pm
cosdem
I have a charcoal .. I have no idea how to use it. Ryan was the grillmaster. I was the prepper. Sigh.
3:40 pm
cosdem
i need to learn asap i miss grilling
3:41 pm
MollyL
You need to get one of those charcoal chimneys to get it started. They are great.
3:41 pm
Lizlin
We have gas in Aus - it’s just not the same.
3:41 pm
cosdem
I have one!
3:41 pm
rururocks

3:41 pm

Just try it.
3:42 pm
cosdem
ru... i m a clumsy fool
3:42 pm
rururocks
If i can bbq anyone can
3:42 pm
cosdem
so you like.. light the coal with fluid.. and wait til it turns white?
3:42 pm
cosdem
then cook? right?
3:43 pm
rururocks
Red and white
3:43 pm
cosdem
so still on fire but white
3:43 pm
cosdem
i think i could manage that
3:44 pm
MollyL
Carcinogens...thanks Ru, you really know how to add all the fun to a barbecue.
3:44 pm
rururocks
Have a friend teach you safely
3:45 pm
MollyL
No, no fluid. That is what is great about the chimney. You start it with newspaper.
3:45 pm
cosdem
ill try.. sure hard finding people to come by.. but ill try yeah thanks
3:46 pm
cosdem
light it with newspaper on coal?
3:46 pm
rururocks
I agree with mollyl
3:46 pm
Lizlin
Or you can get firelighters. That’s what we used in the UK.
3:47 pm
rururocks
Ask about a charcoal starter cos
3:47 pm
cosdem
lol for a sec i thought you said firefighters
3:47 pm
rururocks
You could get a hunky one of thise cos 😜
3:48 pm
MollyL
No, you wrap crumpled newspaper at the bottom of the chimeny and then fill it with charcoal. Then you light the paper from the bottom. I'm sure there is some YouTube video about how to do it.
3:48 pm
cosdem
eh ive seen the local ones.. ill pass.
3:48 pm
cosdem
i think i remember seeing ryan do something like that molly
3:48 pm
Soodle
Liz - happy you are enjoying your trip. Cos... surely the whiff of charcoal brings out every moocher in the district? All I have to do is light my BBQ & scroungers materialize out of thin air
3:48 pm
rururocks
They do know their way around hoses though
3:49 pm
cosdem
my dogs keep people away.
3:49 pm
Lizlin
YouTube is a good idea. There are videos about pretty much everything.
