12:11 pm

no stid, it would teach them respect for a clean floor

12:11 pm

12:13 pm

gailinrb

check out today's woot at woot.com, stid.

12:13 pm

stidmama

okay, brb (not getting very far on the grid anyway)

12:13 pm

inge

this house only has wooden floors, except the bathrooms, no use for scooba

12:13 pm

saphyre

well if you have a roomba you could have it vacuum the floor and then wash it with the scooba haha

12:14 pm

inge

I consider vacuuming day my aerobic excercise day, no use for roomba either, I guess

12:15 pm

stidmama

I don't have a roomba... scooba sounds pretty amazing -- we have all wood or vinyl floors because of my allergies (it was pets or carpets, I chose pets). Sweeping once (sometimes twice) a day is my norm.

12:16 pm

inge

since I had my fireworks two hours ago, I better go and be productive for a while

12:16 pm

inge

The previous owner of this house had allergies, hence the wooden floors

12:16 pm

yeah I vacuum once a day atleast - pets and carpets and Eric has allergies

The remaining jo4/9 ends in a double consonant and sounds like a person's name.

If you'd have been here 12 hours ago you would have had the dubious pleasure of reading a discussion about clotted cream (which goes with jam and sc5/12's for Devon teas) and bum grapes (a clue for or6/21 - sounds like piles). LOL.

7:01 pm

Jacula

7pm?? Good grief!

7:02 pm

lbdawger

oooh clotted cream! yum not sure what bum grapes are tho

7:02 pm

Jacula

Douglas - which 2 and do you need a clue? Oh! That rhymes.

7:03 pm

Douglas

I was saying I'm down to 64 words left...

7:03 pm

chj

if you'd been here 24 hours ago you would have had the unique pleasure of witnessing the attempted kidnapping of jillibus and tiny

7:03 pm

Jacula

lbd - bum grapes are piles. (What your grannie warns you you'll get from sitting on a cold wall.)

7:04 pm

lbdawger

I was here 24 hours ago, and i did witness that almost kidnapping! those dread pirates!

7:04 pm

Jacula

chj - attempted kidnap of jillibus & tiny?? Do tell!

7:04 pm

lbdawger

oh *blush*

7:04 pm

Jacula

Ren wasn't involved, was she?

7:04 pm

chj

Well done, debb!

7:06 pm

Douglas

Hooray for debbinla!

7:06 pm

Jacula

How did jilli & tiny escape?

7:07 pm

Jacula

Douglas - I've just read your profile. 6 kids? Life must be hectic! I'm the same age as you and I can just about cope with 2 kids (22 & 19) and 1 'step' (11).

7:08 pm

Douglas

One of them is grown...sort of...

7:09 pm

Jacula

Douglas - I'd ask what you mean by 'sort of'... unfortunately, I think I know...

7:09 pm

debbinla

lol - i don't have kids and i think i know

7:09 pm

inge

jilly brandished a vorpal sword, whose meaning I still havent found, and tiny then freed her

7:10 pm

Douglas

I think you mean a vorpal blade...they go "snicker-snack..." Speaking of snacks, I'm getting hungry...

7:10 pm

tinks

Hi all! Can anyone help? I've only 3 to go and have hit a total blank! I need the 2nd st 5 and the to 6/21 and to 7/32

7:10 pm

Jacula, you can read up on Jilli's version in her profile

7:11 pm

inge

st 5' os plural of pigpens

7:11 pm

Douglas

I have the to 6/12...it's the fancy word for doughnut...I'm getting hungry...

7:12 pm

jillibus

I'm here, one and all and listerning to chj's slander - see my profile for the truth!

7:12 pm

Jacula

Ah! A vorpal sword is from The Jabberwocky, one of my favourite poems. Speaking of which, tomorrow's icon theme is 'favourite poet'. I'll be hard-pressed to choose a favourite, especially as I am a published poet myself! LOL. I might give it to Lewis Carroll. Not sure yet.

7:12 pm

Douglas

and the to 7/32 is more than one of them...

7:13 pm

Judi

Evening all! Calloo Callay! Love Jabberwocky. One of my all time favorite poems.

7:13 pm

Jacula

Just nipping off to read jilli's profile...

7:13 pm

debbinla

hiya jilli!

7:13 pm

7:14 pm

Jacula

LOL, jilli! (re the story)

7:15 pm

jillibus

7:15 pm

Jacula

Hi Judi.

7:15 pm

chj

you forget i was a lawyer jilli so i pulled the transcript and if you will look at 6:28 PM on yesterday's chat log, you'll see that it was you who fired the first salvo by calling me and ren and nut a bunch of goofs...its all there in black and white

7:15 pm

Jacula

Thanks, jilli.

7:15 pm

Douglas

I have just altered my icon to reflect a poet I'm enjoying these days, Jalalludin Rumi...

7:15 pm

Jacula

Oh heck, jilli! You've got a lawyer on your case noqw.:/

7:16 pm

jillibus

and unfortunately you can't see cap'n ren's profile for that day because she was the one who threatened me before anything else happened

7:16 pm

Jacula

or even *now

7:17 pm

Douglas

If someday it should happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little ****, I've got a little ****
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed, they never would be missed...

7:17 pm

chj

i know my friend ren would never attack someone with ample provocation

7:18 pm

jillibus

you see? Defending his captor!

7:18 pm

Jacula

Lol, jilli.

7:19 pm

Jacula

Stockholm syndrome personified.

7:19 pm

Jacula

Douglas - I hadn't heard of that poet but just read a couple of his poems on line.

7:19 pm

jillibus

shall we start calling him Patti?

7:20 pm

Douglas

I have one of his poems up at Crossword Bebop, "These spiritual windowshoppers"

7:20 pm

Jacula

Jilli - I was thinking more of that girl recently found in... Vienna, was it?

7:20 pm

hetty

Just dropped in to say hullo to my babbler friends and there Doug is quoting my beloved WHS. Hullo everyone

7:21 pm

Douglas

Ah, but best of all I remember the Plaza del *****,
Now whenever I start feeling morose,
I revive by recalling that scene...

7:21 pm

jillibus

whatever, jac, and it's nice to have a supporter - yesterday one of my fellow-islanders actually began to doubt my veracity after a nudge from you-know-who

7:21 pm

jillibus

Hi hetty!

7:21 pm

Jacula

Natascha, her name is. (The Ausstrian girl.)

7:21 pm

chj

she may have kidnapped me but it was for my own benefit...to keep me away from the corrupting non-pirating life

7:22 pm

hetty

Hi jilli! How good to see you!

7:22 pm

Jacula

Hi hetty!

7:22 pm

jillibus

and that's why you were screaming for help, I suppose

7:22 pm

Douglas

And names like Delmonte Dominguina Manolete
If I life to a hundred and eigh-tay
I shall never forget what they mean...

7:22 pm

hetty

Doug, I just scrolled dow and found uyou are enjoying Rumni--another of my favourite poetS. WhaT DO YO0U THINK OF mARY oLIVER?

7:22 pm

debbinla

lol - catching up on all the fun reading - chj - rennie - jilli....

7:23 pm

Jacula

I quite like the poems of Ogden Nash.

7:23 pm

chj

we dont always know whats good gor us...like terry malloy in on the waterfront

7:23 pm

hetty

*Rumi--oh these sdran fingfers, when I get xcited. Hi there Jac!

7:23 pm

jillibus

I LOVE Ogden Nash

7:23 pm

Jacula

Douglas - Delmonte is a brand of tinned fruit, isn't it? LOL.

7:24 pm

Jacula

hetty's writing nonsense posts! Oh, I love nonsense poems!

7:24 pm

tinks

YAY! Thanks for the clues - just finished - those doughnuts really stimied me!

7:24 pm

Douglas

I'm not familiar with Mary Oliver, but I seem to recall she had a poem in a book of poems I just read, "The Soul Is Here For It's Own Joy," compiled by Robert Bly.

7:24 pm

jillibus

I could have used Manolete yesterday to get rid of the bull

7:24 pm

Douglas

Indeed yes! I'm not sure if it's Delmonte or Del Monte...

7:24 pm

tinks

Thanks again - going to have to go as it's 1:24 am here and at this rate I'll never make work tomorrow.

7:25 pm

hetty

So do I --him and dorothy parker; but to me they are versifiersrather than poets. And yes, Mary Olier has ftreat affinities with 2 Roberts, Bly and Frost --but a feminine take on nature

7:25 pm

Jacula

Yes, I meant to ask what the 'doughnuts' were. I finished the grid hours ago and I can't see any doughnuts in it! Someone, much earlier, said sc5/12 wa a 'bread product', which it is NOT!

7:25 pm

Douglas

I have 2^6 words, and I'm ready for some football!

7:25 pm

chj

7:27 pm

debbinla

he on fire

7:27 pm

chj

good that somebodys gettin hot

7:27 pm

Jacula

hetty - do you make a distinction between versifiers and poetasters? Mind you, most poets, being artistic and therefore temperamental types, tend to veer between the over-wordy dramatic, the lean, clean to the point verse, and just rhyming for fun. I've certainly wrote those myself.

7:27 pm

debbinla

i know - hopefully it's contagious

7:28 pm

inge

thanks for mentioning tomorrow's theme, Jacula, I got my poet ready, he is sortof the German Lewis Carroll

7:32 pm

debbinla

chj - who wrote the mets theme song - that's poetry right there!

7:32 pm

jillibus

It's bridge night and I have to go. No talking behind my back now!

7:32 pm

lbdawger

good luck Jilli!

7:33 pm

inge

hey, Jilly< I am on your side, since I witnessed the whole event

7:33 pm

hetty

No, Jac, I make my OWN distinction (which I dont expect others to accept willy-nilly) between those who write light verse--the versifiers--and those who write poetry (the kind that makes you feel the top of your head is taken off--according to emily dickinson) and are therefore poets. To me, poetasters are all those who enjoy verse and poetry both.Now I hav eto run --dinner engagement. Best to you all!

7:34 pm

chj

i think it was beethoven...since its an ode to joy

7:34 pm

9:21 pm

phandmd

if you have the 4/4 above it plural it

9:22 pm

GreyWoulf

the family are fine -- I had back issues this past week, but things are better now it seems

9:22 pm

Jacula

ro5/10 is the plural of ro4/4.

9:22 pm

phandmd

if not the ro 4 is decal + a stick consonant

9:23 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - we will talk about that elsewhere soon. Not today though.

9:57 pm

TheFiz

i'm so excited - i took my vacation last year with my parents and sister, and while nice, it was not the romantic getaway that i (we) could have used. this one will be - the plan is to eat great food, do fun things, and be really nice to each other.

Hoot is home already -- she was here last weekend for a couple of days -- it was a good time -- she got lots of time with the kids

10:05 pm

cybernan

Bet she loved every minute!

10:06 pm

GreyWoulf

As for the family -- we are all doing pretty good -- my back gave me problems the day after hoot left, but it is doing much better now -- everyone else is doing alright

10:06 pm

cybernan

We live 11 hours driving time from our grandkids -- it's really tough --- you feel like you never really get to know them.

10:06 pm

GreyWoulf

and that was the report from the dept of redundancy dept

10:07 pm

cybernan

glad you're feeling better -- nothing worse than a sore back

10:08 pm

ooh, i hate back problems. glad you had a nice visit and are feeling better.

10:08 pm

GreyWoulf

indeed, she lives about 16 hours away -- this was the first time she has seen Seb since he was born

Doesn't look like anyone needs any help, so I'll be back at the flip -- bye for now :)

10:08 pm

TheFiz

hi stid! bye nan!

10:09 pm

GreyWoulf

The worst part of the back was the horrid er visit I had, but I already ranted about that the other day and will not subject the log to it again :)

10:10 pm

TheFiz

like the back isn't enough - a trip to the er will really help you relax!

10:10 pm

GreyWoulf

OK, the worst part was really the fact that I could barely interact with the kids on Sunday, but the er was a close second

10:11 pm

stidmama

no -- I was going to try earlier, but kinda got scared off bye the chat I saw. So I think I'll just relax and let this one go.

10:11 pm

Stid, are you IMable?

10:11 pm

stidmama

Just a sec Daisy.

10:11 pm

GreyWoulf

10:11 pm

GreyWoulf

what happened earlier, stid?

10:12 pm

stidmama

yep. ready when you are Daisy

10:12 pm

I also got an offer to go to Australia for the same, Fiz :D

10:13 pm

stidmama

Just saw someone ranting and didn't have the energy so have been off doing fun things around the house instead. I made CHUTNEY for the first time, and it turned out really yummy!

10:13 pm

TheFiz

ooh go to australia gw! send a postcard, please.

10:13 pm

TheFiz

ok stid - i know the difference between jam and jelly, but what's the difference between jam and chutney, stid?

10:14 pm

stidmama

Australia's a lot further away from Pennsylvania than Canada fiz.... LOL

10:14 pm

GreyWoulf

Fiz -= Australia look so beautiful but it scares me a bit -- too many poisonous critters all about :)

10:15 pm

stidmama

Chutney is SPICY! and you can make it with lots of things, but common ingredients are vinegar/lemon; brown sugar/honey; sweet things (I used apples and raisins today); savory things (I also put in a bit of garlic, though often they use onion); and spices (today I had ginger, cinnamon and cloves).

10:16 pm

TheFiz

*spreading arms in front of great white shark, tasmanian devil, and assorted other critters* poisonous critters? where?

10:16 pm

GreyWoulf

I have only ever had mango chutney myself -- not so spicy but very very yummy

10:16 pm

TheFiz

yummy! maybe i should make some - i love savory flavors with my sweets.

10:16 pm

stidmama

I served it with pork chops (which we rarely eat, but an unexpected dinner guest left me scrambling for "normal" food to serve) and it was delicioso!

10:16 pm

GreyWoulf

LOL, Fiz

10:17 pm

stidmama

I think the frog infestation in Australia would make me nervous... also the mice, and the giant insects.

10:18 pm

TheFiz

my family had an opportunity to go to the austrailan rainforest when i was about 12 and my sister was 5 - she still does an imitation of the giant spider hanging outsider our window!

10:19 pm

TheFiz

it was way cool, though - tree kangaroos, wallabies, and yes, the occasional snake or creepy critter. didn't seem overrun with frogs...

10:20 pm

TheFiz

ok, i need a snack and then i have to go to bed. stid, will i see you this weekend?

10:20 pm

stidmama

I hope so Fiz-- I sent you my phone if you want to call (I have you number written down too).

10:20 pm

GreyWoulf

Truthfully though - if I were to ever hit the lottery, I will most definitely be visiting Australia -- it has a spiritual draw for me

10:21 pm

TheFiz

will do stid. *pulled by kite to kitchen, waving* bye, all!

10:22 pm

stidmama

If I ever hit the lottery, I would pay off my mortgage so my little piece of land would be mine forever no matter what... but I don't know if I am brave enough to travel that far away from home. Going north this summer just a short ways was traumatic enough!

10:22 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations GreyWoulf on fireworks! Good for U!
