and wearing a cup helps too
6:23 am
Haz1558
We've had quite a bit of rain but it's easing now. It's colder as well....
6:24 am
spellit
We've had buckets of rain - our hose pipe ban starts 1st April!
6:25 am
faeriekae

Capone - If I were you, I'd be wearing a cup at all times. You somehow manage to piss her off nearly everyday.
6:26 am
Haz1558
Isn't it extraordinary? The only time I remember a hosepipe or any water restrictions here was in the summer of 1976. (I was doing my A-levels at the time so the memory stuck)
6:26 am
bejay
talking of horses, haz must be the only one left in
ireland, the rest are over at cheltenham races
having fun!
6:27 am

nah, she loves it. except for the other day, but amends were made for that silliness.

capone, I used to work for a man whose motto was "If I could care less, I would be dead", you haven't pissed me off today... LOL
6:28 am
Haz1558
Well, bejay, I can honestly say that horse-racing leaves me cold! I prefer show-jumping. My only encounter with horses comes once a week when I help out at the local Riding for the Disabled group. Even then my job is to make the tea and coffee!
6:28 am
spellit
I remember the summer of 1976 - I was in hospital in a heatwave with the heating full on
6:28 am
mtnjock
he actually said it to a man in the tram going from one airport to another while it was stuck and awaiting repairs, who was just trying to be friendly... We all just lost it.
6:29 am
Haz1558
That would make the memory stick!
6:30 am
mtnjock
It was just one of those defining moments when you get to know someone's true personality...
6:30 am

leaves me cold! is certainly right in this weather! haz
6:31 am

spellit, remember the blizzard or 76 here in america? 15 feet of snow in 2 days... (midwestern life, lake effect snow)
6:32 am
mtnjock
I meant faerie, sorry spellit...
6:33 am
spellit
We can't cope with 1.5 inches of snow, never mind 15 feet!
6:33 am
faeriekae
MntJ-Yes I do remember....I was living in Kentucky (born and raised there) and had to park my car at the top of the hill and walk about 3/4 mile home down curvy, windy road.
6:37 am
mtnjock
when my dad and I climbed out the 2nd story window on a board to check the neighbors (an older couple) it was amazing to see... we were snow bound for 2 days and needed to check on them...
6:38 am
mtnjock
I was amazed that here in Memphis we had a week of snow and then a week later its 70 degrees
6:39 am
faeriekae
MntJ-It was certainly a snow storm many of us will not forget. lol. It's snowing here right now. All the snow had melted and it rained like mad off and on for a couple of days and now...snow again...I'm sick to death of it...yuck
6:39 am
mtnjock
btw... if you are still not sure where South Bend is, my mom still works for Notre Dame, I hope that helps.... LOL
6:41 am
mtnjock
its a favorite joke amongst us local midwesterners (they close schools on the hint of snow flurries). It used to take an act of God to get them to do it when I was a kid...
6:41 am
faeriekae
I know exactly where South Bend is I have a very close friend who used to live there. She has since moved to Ohio. South Bend is very nice.
6:42 am
mtnjock
Century Center, by the falls, OMG, that is one of my favorite places, when I worked there, my office overlooked it. the US kayak team still trains there... Its open to the public, and the open air food square is a great place to spend the afternoon...
6:44 am
faeriekae
Century Center is the first place my friend Tamara took me when I went to visit her. lol. Beautiful there.
6:45 am
faeriekae
Ok folks I'm looking at at no 11/128 is this for real???
I need some help please and thank you.
6:46 am
mtnjock
me and my best friend would either go there on saturdays and to the movies, or we would lie to our parents and take the amtrak to Chicago and roam down town till the last train. It wasn't till I went to college that we told the parents (hers and mine) about it. LOL

9:46 am
movieman
Seeya, TSM....
9:46 am
Jera
Is it "curable" for want of a better word? Are there like exercises to control the repetition tendancies? I really would rather not medicate him, unless absolutely necessary... but some of his sounds are driving me buggy...
9:47 am
faeriekae
Capone *smack* how dare you. She is hardly out of the room yet.
9:47 am

9:51 am
faeriekae
Yes Capone I've been around for a while and I've pretty much heard them all......ROFL
9:51 am
movieman
It isn't curable I'm afraid, Jera, but there are coping strategies to enable the suffer to cope.....
I was diagnosed in my early twenties, and since then I have improved tremendously, my social skills have improved, and I am now applying for several jobs.....
9:52 am
capone
and I've pretty much said them all....
9:52 am
bex777
i no what a horse is but what is the other thing?
9:52 am

Toes went in seach of a Dew I believe.
9:55 am
Jera
That's good movieman... I was concerned that he is being tested so late (he's 4 1/2 & barely speaking coherently). Good to know that those diagnosed later can function. My biggest worry now is him hitting other kids at preschool... very frustrating not knowing if he understands me or the social reasoning of rules & caring & courtesy.
Did you learn to talk later than most kids? You have a fine vocbulary now...
9:55 am
bex777
do rocking horses count???
9:56 am

10:01 am
Jera
How cool, movieman... I guess there are many ways it can manifest... I taught myself to read before school as well. With Gwyd, it's har to knwo what he understands, since he does communicate back... he could know how to read already& be bored silly with color & shape quizzing!
10:01 am
faeriekae
How cute Bex - so do I hit your refresh key
10:01 am

good afternoon babblers
10:02 am

Jera - has he been tested for Tourettes Syndrome?
10:02 am
Jera
Gwyd does NOT like to make eye contact, which is one way to measure if someone is paying attention... he also has this thing about his ears... don't touch the ears or all you know what breaks loose...
10:03 am
faeriekae
Jer when you spoke of the sounds he makes it made he think of a young girl that I know.
10:03 am

Kissmy Hi :)
10:04 am
Jera
No, faerie... just starting the physical testing next week. He had one preliminary testing where several flags/markers were found. He doesn't speak well enough for me to think Tourettes, although I swear he said crap the other day, LOL
He has very jumbled/incoherent speech, like a mouth full of something.
10:04 am

He's on a block kick recently. Builds this wall & then sits & admires it, sucking his thumb & playing with hsi hair. Last weekend he had a particular set up of 4 blocks & he carried it with him everywhere.
10:05 am
faeriekae
nope just a picture *tee hee*
10:06 am
Jera
Thanks, faerie... I know he's smart, that what makes me sad I can't talk with him... there's a really cool kid in there somewhere!
10:07 am
Jera
Hopefully some speech therapy will help with communication.
10:07 am

Yes there is Jera and one day he will come and give you all the love and attention a mommy could hope for. He will be in my prayers.
10:08 am

Hi Musicmom - back for more punishment I see lol
10:12 am

Jera -
When I was teaching public school I worked with autistic children. Depending on what your testing shows and the diagnosis, you might want to consider music therapy in addition to speech therapy. It can really help with communication and speech.
10:12 am

This was a fun puzzle... the long ones weren't very hard... definite pattern going on throughout...

10:13 am
Jera
Thanks, musicmom... I have been considering drums... he's been hitting at school & seems to be banging/tapping things a lot... maybe drums would be a constructive/creative outlet for that tendancy??
10:13 am

Hey Happy Birthday : )
BRG? Probably not where Chevy are concerned lol
10:14 am

Is there a kindermusik program for that, musicmom??
10:14 am

Music-joint compound - still working on the diningroom?
10:14 am

Drums is a great idea - if he is into constructing right now. Encourage him to build a "drum set" out of bowls, pots pans etc. Show him how to use wooden spoons or other utensils to make sound. (You might want to invest in a set of earplugs. )

Jera - YES there is! Email me privately and I'll lead you to some sites and products. Don't want to turn this into a commercial here.
10:15 am

Ooooh, making drums... great idea... & cheaper than mine! If it would help him, I would consider a "real" set well worth it!

Yes Faerie - we had a contractor here to look at the plumbing the other night (that's a whole other story). Anyway, while he was here I was asking him about the drywall problem. He said a thin coat of joint compound on the whole wall and then sanding it will take care of the problem. That is what I will be doing to morrow since I don't teach on Wednesdays.

musicmom, I checked out the website you have in your profile & e-mailed you!
I gotta scoot now, must bathe before running errands so I won't offend! Later, all!
10:20 am
musicmom
it's not that bad. The people who built the addition didn't do the plumbing under the house in the most sensible way. We could live with it this way but it will be more economical to have Tom come and fix it. As soon as I get paid this semester and the weather is warmer he will be doing that. Fortunately, his quote was 1/2 of the first one.

Erm, and I think it comes down to a choice between 'The League Against Salivating Monsters' or my own personal preference, which is 'The Committee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society'.

boreetos
i would so eat a cheese elephant.
4:39 pm
hurshy
phrases you never thought you'd hear... :)
4:39 pm
boreetos
yeah i can see both of those. It is cloth, so there's the velvet look, but it could very well be alabaster or something too.
4:39 pm
boreetos
lol hurshy.
4:42 pm
Jera
I thought it might be marble, too... that's why I asked...

4:56 pm
Schroeder
I don't know Babbler, hopefully the snow will let up in a few hours and then I can bat my eyelashes at the man at the gate on the highway and he will let me by.
4:57 pm

That's a relief, Shroeder. You'll be home in time for dinner?

Bye, peri!!! I've heard that shingles are extremely painful. I hope that is not the case, scatty. If it is, I hope you feel better very soon. And your father, too. (which makes me think of the line... "And your little dog Toto, too").

7:55 pm

Thanks guys I am new at this :P
7:59 pm

en -- have a look at the "babble rules" at the top of the page
7:59 pm
mrpresident
on the right hand side of this page is a list of friends of babble... go to Angelsongs page and in there is all you need to get this game.
There is a stats page brooklyn, so you know how many words there are to find and what they start with
8:01 pm
Brooklyn
The game is like boggle. Make words using only adjacent letters. No repeats, but they can cross diagonally. And for example, remember to use the letter 's' to use the plural version of the word.
8:04 pm
dithyramble
when are you supposed to stop...
8:05 pm
Brooklyn
When indeed?
8:05 pm
EvaNadine
there are 168 total words today -- you can see the stats if youre a pro-babbler, or else you can ask + someone will tell you.
:)
8:07 pm
Brooklyn
168 words? In what language? I was slowing down thinking that I was hot stuff with my 36 words.
8:07 pm
mrpresident
LOL Brooklyn, and that is why it takes a whole day to do this puzzle!!
8:10 pm

Brooklyn,
There's a timer below the grid that tells you how much time is left before today's puzzle ends.
8:11 pm
Brooklyn
But I have a full time job and a family to support. Must I give it up for all of this?
8:11 pm
EvaNadine
they almost always have over 100.
there are a few ones now + then under that, but theyre usually tough.
theyre quite often over 200, ocassionally over 300.
i think i even saw one once that was over 400!
8:12 pm
EvaNadine
brooklyn, in a word, YES.
8:12 pm
Brooklyn
Don't I get credit for doing the NYTimes xword puzzle on the train this morning?
8:13 pm
EvaNadine
heck, if you can finish that, this should be cake!
8:15 pm
Brooklyn
Nah, tuesday's puzzle is easy. Here I'm only up to 45 words and quite tired.
And what does 'sone' mean? I guessed at it and the darn thing says it's a word. Maybe it's German or something.
8:17 pm
EvaNadine
ooh, for starters, dont post grid words on the chatlog!
dont wanna give away the answers.
but if you click on the ? next to it on your list, itll give you a definition
8:18 pm
Brooklyn
Please forgive me all.
"subjective unit of loudness, as perceived by a person with normal hearing, equal to the loudness of a pure tone having a frequency of 1,000 hertz at 40 decibels."

8:20 pm

Hello kiddos-- When entering the Babble door I hide Dr_God's plea for help at that "other" site while repeating my mantra, "words are good, numbers are bad!" That "s" word makes me uneasy! Of course, many days so does the babble grid! Happy "wording" all! And g'nite!
10:12 pm
JBsAnno
You all look VERY sleepy, just like me! Yup, got an 8:15 meeting, too, and was up at 5am to be on the bus at 6 to be at work at 6:30. I get to sleep in to 6:30 tomorrow - snooze alarm, here I come!
Night, {{{{{hugs}}}}, all!
10:12 pm

Jen-a sea creature with a barbed tail--an underwater bat looking thing. And I've given up playing this game for the ratings--I'm just addicted. Play everyday on paper, just don't always get it entered online. How's that for pathetic! Hardly ever bother to check ratings--it's too depressing!

72 Temple Owl
hello? trying out tomorrow's icon...can you tell what it is?
10:43 pm
cshabsin

10:46 pm
cshabsin
there's a such thing as being "done" with this puzzle?
10:46 pm
72 Temple Owl

10:47 pm
cshabsin
a monkey-infested computer?
10:48 pm
Jen
Yikes, TO, what IS tomorrow's icon? Power Rangers?!?!
10:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
LOL!!!! tomorrow is toe sock monkey's birthday and i thought she would like this...i guess it can be seen ok!
10:50 pm
Jen
csh... yes... there is such a thing as being done, lol. if you are not a babblepro, then go to the right side and go to babblers anon and click on general... from there, you will find a stats list posted for the day, which will give you the number of words possible for the day's puzzle.
10:50 pm
Jen
LOL, I guess if she likes Power Rangers!!!! (which is what I can see!!!!)
10:51 pm
cshabsin
ah. i guess from looking at who's hot there are >1000 points to be had here... i'm just about halfway... and it's getting tough
10:54 pm
Jen
LOL, csh, I've been playing since about October, and I haven't made it up in the 1K's... basically, I play it for myself now. ;)
10:55 pm
72 Temple Owl
csh: you can use the stats list to see what you are missing and ask for clues or scroll back in the log to look for clues..you will usually find clues for long ones and obscure ones
jen: i read the ez board how to's and it seems to me that the charges go by the number of unregistered users who hit the site...which would explain why the cost skyrocketed...
10:57 pm
Eren
clues for the ao s please!
10:58 pm
72 Temple Owl
eren: a major artery and its latin plural
10:58 pm
Jen
the cost of my ranking, you mean TO? I figured as much. Plus, I have a couple of puzzles I started and didn't finish, which put my scores in the crapper... but oh the hell well. I have such fun on this site!!! I am gonna totally miss it when I start back to work in July!!!!!
10:59 pm
Eren
Doh! Thanks.
10:59 pm

11:00 pm

11:01 pm
72 Temple Owl
yw
jen - i mean the cost to maintain babanon..remember swmbo saying how much it had gone up? when i was trying to register i beleive i saw simething that indicated that the more unregistered users hit the site, the more the site costs...makes sense
11:01 pm
caelle
ea 8/50 our planet + a little green veggie
11:01 pm
Eren
ne 5/10
think of a geeky willy wonka candy, then change the d to a t.
11:02 pm
paulrothrock
caelle: ne 5/10 is a synonym for "nuts" as in "Aw nuts."
11:02 pm
72 Temple Owl
caelle: think of guys who wear pocket protectors...change the last letter and pluralize
11:02 pm
Eren
That is a strange word... off to look up what it means. Thanks.
11:03 pm
caelle
thanks everyone - I'm done!!
