smooth_pappa

3:14 am

annotherone

I've sent him a message

3:14 am

hydra

Oh. Well, hopefully he'll answer and tell you how to join. I had no trouble when I did it. Perhaps it's just a temporary hitch in the system.

3:14 am

annotherone

worrying thing is I've tried to send the form 3 times - hope I haven't been charged

3:15 am

hydra

I hope so too. Shouldn't think so tho'. This is a very honest and genuine set-up.

3:22 am

annotherone

hehe only been playing a couple of weeks

3:22 am

annotherone

used to be a tangleword addict

3:22 am

Andree

might not be too late to fight the addiction then

3:22 am

annotherone

but this is even more addictive

3:23 am

Haz1558

I think I was hooked from the very beginning.

3:23 am

Angb

annotherone - it get's a little easier. I have been playing a couple of months and added all sorts of useless words to my vocabulary. I am sure this is an added benefit of Babble. Not sure what for of course LOL

3:23 am

Andree

don't give in to this, look at us stuck here for hours every day

3:23 am

Angb

I could probably have a conversation with an archaic Scot now.

3:23 am

annotherone

know what you mean angb - keep trying to work out how to drop the new words into everyday conversation

3:24 am

Angb

Andree and I have finsihed for the day and we are still here. Sad!

3:24 am

Haz1558

I'm at an advantage there, Ang. We use lots of Scots words here.

3:24 am

lynxxx

LOL AngB !!!!!!

3:25 am

Andree

not me I am lucky to remember when they are in the grid the next time, sometimes when I type a word in i think , seen this before

3:25 am

Angb

I suppose I have an advantage too. My spelling is so bad I find the ones that I didn't know. Hmmm if you know what I mean

3:26 am

lynxxx

hey Haz (our guru!) - I always try 'enth' as in doing something to the enth degreee - or being really precise. Is my memory totally shot?

3:26 am

Angb

Good ? lynxxx

3:27 am

Andree

I am a reasonably good speller and hate the Ã¤lternate"spellings

3:27 am

purplepufff

LOl Angb -

3:27 am

Haz1558

Gosh, I've achieved guru status!? I know what you mean about the enth degree, but would it be spelt nth?

3:28 am

Angb

Yes - cause n is stats talk for number

3:28 am

lynxxx

good thinking Haz - you are probably right. I have only ever said it - and never seen it spelt

3:29 am

lynxxx

TY for that info too AngB

3:29 am

Andree

and I know we all have lots of typos, but it really upsets me when someone is on chat misspelling every 2nd word

3:29 am

Haz1558

I have thrown things at the screen, Andree.

3:30 am

Andree

I guess you know who I am talking about haz

3:30 am

Angb

I think I'll give Babble the an 5/12 for the night and get in the wa 6/36 of my fu 5/18. Good night all (Hope there are no typos in this LOL)

3:30 am

Haz1558

Oh yes, I know. So does my blood pressure.

3:31 am

Andree

nite angb, not talking about you

3:31 am

lynxxx

Haz1558

That's okay, but you deprived us of your wit and badinage.

4:55 am

Odin

My wit was little this morning...traveling today and I HAD to finish. Got up extra early to comply with my Babble OCD!

4:56 am

Haz1558

Goodness, your normal early is early for me, so goodness knows what time you got up!

spanner

UK I heard it on radio 2 yesterday...

Wolvie

yes I know, Gohan - I just play with words - bad habit

5:58 am

Eva

Wolvie

5:58 am

spanner

Whats aquarium?

5:58 am

Uneaixoise

the plural isn't the rainbow--it's the one that starts in the far righthand column

5:59 am

kthdsn

I've only got the rainbow one so far

5:59 am

Wolvie

9:41 am

Lara226

9:42 am

Eggcorn

do people need a reason to talk to themseselves? occasionally I ask very astute questions and proffer a number of answers

9:42 am

bunnyvicious

Bye Melon

9:43 am

Bloodaxe

it's rather entertaining, if i do say so myself.

9:43 am

n8attack

and it includes my tea packaging, oh nope, it froze, said 0kB, and then just now showed some projects. So I think I'll try to copy them

9:43 am

hurshy

talking to oneself = normal
holding an entire conversation with oneself in the babble chatroom rather than, say, talking to the other babblers = not normal

9:43 am

melonheadjujube

I'm in such agreement i have nothing to say to each other...

9:43 am

melonheadjujube

harpjane

I've applied with the same company twice over the last year and twice - no word at all. I even asked the second person why that is - they're too busy she says. Rude I say.

10:02 am

hi pappa! Was going to say you're up early, but then I remembered what time it is there... LOL

10:02 am

stidmama

10:03 am

harpjane

thanks, this thing is brutal

10:04 am

Angela

well, then that's not really fair of them. I don't know - you don't want to tick off the people who could be hiring you...thoughts anyone???

10:04 am

tndaisy1960

I have 26 words and just don't seee anymore...

10:04 am

harpjane

I'm with you, daisy@

10:04 am

10:04 am

Angela

good for you bunny! I have been doing freelance work for a year, but am ready for benefits again :)

10:04 am

bunnyvicious

Daisy, there are some off the wall words today.

10:05 am

hurshy

ah well, it's not THAT important, i just thought it might be fun...

10:05 am

tndaisy1960

I can't use them when I puter. supposed to...but that doesn't work too well.

10:05 am

bunnyvicious

Yeah, we could use the insurance for the family, recently lost ours. Five kids and no insurance isn't a good thing.

10:05 am

stidmama

well that's stinky then, daisy. *offers strong cup of coffee with flavor of your choice*

10:06 am

harpjane

ar6?

10:06 am

hurshy

good luck to both angela and bunny in the job searches!!

10:06 am

hurshy

ar6 = silver

10:06 am

stidmama

oh bunny, I am so sorry to hear that! One of the reasons we are able to live on the one income is that Tom's insurance covers even the fairly high expenses for one of our children...

10:06 am

harpjane

thanks

10:07 am

stidmama

ar 6: french for silver, I think, heraldry term ar + "fancy" male in top hat

10:07 am

bunnyvicious

Nope, not looking. I'm going to continue to scrap, I match my husbands income weekly being lazy. I plan on volunterring at the school frequently when the twins start kinder.

10:07 am

caitlyn

bunny you must get insurance quickly

10:07 am

Eggcorn

well, then you have two options-- to do nothing or to do something ---- I have hired some people and note those that express interest .... perosnally, I would call and explain that you are not trying to bother them, but are seeking timeframe for the company's response... because you are interested in the position

10:07 am

bunnyvicious

My mother teaches, said she could probably get the kids on her insurance til we find another plan and we could pay her for it.

10:07 am

tndaisy1960

got any Jack Daniels to go in that coffee? that would make it alllll better

10:08 am

caitlyn

That sounds a good idea bunny

10:08 am

stidmama

no Daisy, too early in the morning for him -- how about chocolate hazelnut?

10:09 am

caitlyn

daisy have you got my icon clue sw5/20

10:09 am

tndaisy1960

ok that'll do

10:09 am

stidmama

does texas have a health insurance program for low-income people? washington does, and it really helps the children.

10:09 am

bunnyvicious

Compromise, Bailey's Irish Cream or Kahlua.

10:09 am

tndaisy1960

I do now caitlyn! ty

10:10 am

bunnyvicious

We have medicaid and chips, but we are over the income line.

10:10 am

stidmama

caitlyn, I thought it was a clue, but all I could think was that computer bugs had gotten contagious... LOL thanks!

10:10 am

hurshy

last i heard texas was in the bottom 3 at providing health care for children... (when our dear pres was the gov)

10:10 am

caitlyn

yw

10:10 am

stidmama

wow. that stinks bunny. {{{hugs}}}

10:10 am

bunnyvicious

I can pay the doctors visits, dentisit, all that jazz. It's just braces and broken arms aren't in our budget at the moment.

10:11 am

Eggcorn

a smidge of sarcasm, hurshy?

10:11 am

hurshy

only a smidge? hmmm, must be losing my edge.

10:11 am

caitlyn

Can someone pass bunny the Baileys please...i wouldnt mind a drop either

10:11 am

bunnyvicious

I could move to Canada, don't they provide medical care to all residents?

10:12 am

10:13 am

tndaisy1960

10:13 am

stidmama

*sigh* took it that time

10:13 am

stidmama

okay, MO 6?

10:13 am

Eggcorn

baker's dozen worked

10:13 am

hurshy

i never thought it was a good sign that a health plan was named for a deadly snake...

10:14 am

Angela

LMAO Hursh!

10:14 am

bunnyvicious

mo 6 is like a mans name, Mo**** Freeman

10:14 am

caitlyn

Having a break..bbl

10:14 am

bunnyvicious

Cobra is the WORST insurance I have ever had to deal with!

10:14 am

stidmama

thanks again bunny!

10:14 am

bunnyvicious

Bye Cait.

10:15 am

Eggcorn

expecially since the coverage often follows unemplyment

10:15 am

stidmama

german, for "morning" *sigh*

10:15 am

Angela

they've been ok but it's so expensive and with my cholesterol history - yikes!

10:15 am

hurshy

i can just see the politicians snickering at the poor working folks when they came up with that... jerks

10:15 am

stidmama

later caitlyn, thanks!

10:15 am

chj

i got bumped from yahoo IM and cant get back in

10:15 am

bunnyvicious

We were stupid enough to pay for it through my husbands last job. He had emergency gal bladder surgery, didn't touch a dime.

10:16 am

tndaisy1960

the "German" clue worked :)

10:16 am

tndaisy1960

chj, I haven't been in YET!

10:16 am

harpjane

um, bunny? cobra is the name of the federal law that requires employers to let people stay on their regular insurance after becoming unemployed, isn't it? Not the name of an insurance company?

10:16 am

Angela

wow - I had my gall bladder out last year too. they paid for everything- wonder why that is??

10:16 am

Angela

right harp - mine was CIGNA through the COBRA program

10:16 am

bunnyvicious

Stephen worked at Blue Beacon and he got a "free" insurance policy through them. I am pretty sure it was Cobra.

10:16 am

Eggcorn

cobra is an acronym

10:17 am

stidmama

chj, it took a very long time, but looks like it finally loaded, and it shows you as being there.

10:17 am

Eggcorn

COBRA Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (US)

10:18 am

bunnyvicious

I could be mistaken, I only know what I heard from his boss/uncle, who wasn't real informed. Making me not real informed. We decided to pay for insurance through his job after that and I made the assumption it was the same company.

10:18 am

hurshy

see, you can tell they had to WORK to get it to spell a deadly snake

10:18 am

harpjane

thanks egg, I knew it had the word omnibus in it....

10:18 am

Angela

Hursh - I'm working my freelance job until noon, then I'm calling the graduate school I applied to :) You've inspired me!!

10:18 am

hurshy

my good deed for the day :)

10:18 am

Eggcorn

wtg, Angela!

10:18 am

Angela

Omnibus??? HA! strikes me funny for some reason today

10:18 am

harpjane

Well, there was already OBRA, which is a law that affects nursing homes so it was pretty easy to stick a C in front!\

10:19 am

Golux13

COBRA is just a program that allows an employee to continue the same health insurance for up to 18 months after stopping work for the employer

10:19 am

hurshy

sick sense of humor, i still say

10:19 am

Golux13

You pay up to 102% of the premium, and you get to maintain your benefits

10:19 am

Angela

yup - my 18 months are running out :)

10:19 am

bunnyvicious

Is it only if you are unemployed, or can you still have it if you switch employers?

10:20 am

stidmama

hi golux -- right. a real easy thing to do for a person who just went unemployed...

10:20 am

Golux13

You can use it if you switch employers, but only if your new employer doesn't offer a health plan, I believe. It's a relief program, not a federal insurance program.

10:20 am

hurshy

don't worry angela, they have a new one coming out for after 18 months called VIPER: Very Ill People's Emergency Rip-off

10:20 am

Angela

it works for us though - no kids, bit of cholesterol and a minor blood disorder, so we can wait a while between coverages

10:20 am

Eggcorn

it is a bit more than that ... COBRA can be used by widows; widowers; and children ....

chj, I finally got yahoo to work...so keep trying...

10:21 am

harpjane

well, we're using cobra to keep my husband's insuerance and his 18 months are running out in March, it's goin to be LOT more expensive to get him a private policy after that....so far we're surviving but it's not fun....

10:21 am

bunnyvicious

Stephen was supposed to get insurance with his new job, but his company got bought out and he wasn't there long enough to cross the cutt off line.

10:21 am

Eggcorn

the rates generally do go up precipitously

10:21 am

harpjane

lol hursh

10:21 am

hurshy

then you move to the Amazingly Sucky Plan (or ASP) when VIPER runs out

10:22 am

Golux13

Could be worse -- you could come to the end of your 18 months and be uninsurable on a private plan

10:22 am

harpjane

35 to go, i need some air, bbl

10:22 am

bunnyvicious

Harp, we have a Medicare program through the state here. Isn't there something like that?

10:22 am

stidmama

which has also happened to people, golux -- and then there is nothing for them to do but haunt emergency rooms...

10:23 am

stidmama

OR 5/12 (the one after the non-human bad guys in fantasy novels?)

10:23 am

stidmama

also missing OC 5...

10:23 am

Golux13

It has happened to me -- fortunately, my state has a safety net insurance program.

10:24 am

bunnyvicious

or 5/12 - or***donist

10:24 am

Angela

My husband and I just found that if you are refused by a private insurance company for any reason in NH, the State actually has a policy that you can buy (not Medicaid or anything).

10:24 am

stidmama

thanks bunny!

10:24 am

Eggcorn

yes, based on a federal program administered through the stares

10:24 am

Eggcorn

10:24 am

Angela

you really have to go looking for it though because not many people will tell you about it.

10:25 am

tndaisy1960

"non-human bad guys"?

10:25 am

bunnyvicious

We had to use the emergency room recently for a tetnus shot, hubby stepped on a rusty nail. Bill was un godly, but the doctors I tried wouldn't even see him without insurance.

10:25 am

bunnyvicious

Guess I could just go through medical school, or get a doctor sugar daddy...

10:25 am

Angela

sad state of affairs isn't it? mine needed stitches and it still cost us $200+

10:26 am

stidmama

think Lord of the Rings, Daisy

10:26 am

Angela

lol Bunny!

10:26 am

bunnyvicious

The bad guys is a or 4

10:27 am

stidmama

and Grey Woulf went to the ER a couple months ago and they charged him several hundred dollars for sitting in the waiting room and a very cursory exam.

10:27 am

hurshy

and then after you've exhausedted COBRA, VIPER, and ASP, you can get the Voters Entering Lifelong Overcharging, Crappy, Insurance-Related Accident Program Through Official Rigamarole, or VELOCIRAPTOR

10:27 am

Ankhorite

Extreeeeeemely cool button, Angela!
*does raised-fist salute!*

10:27 am

Ankhorite

Oh, Stid... Medicare charges 1,000 dollars payable by you every time you walk into an ER.

10:28 am

Golux13

hurshy... I think maybe you need a rest. 8-)

10:28 am

bunnyvicious

Even if the visit isn't equal to that amount?

10:28 am

tndaisy1960

the dr Zilla went to, to get meds he ended up not being able to afford, charged him $125, and of course the deductable didn't cover it...or the meds either.

10:28 am

stidmama

hurshy, maybe you should forget whatever you applied for and go work for the Fed designing names...

10:28 am

hurshy

aw, but creating acronyms is such fun golux

10:28 am

stidmama

OC 5 please?

10:28 am

Angela

thanks Ank :)

10:28 am

stidmama

also AC 5... down to 13 and getting antsy

10:29 am

bunnyvicious

LOL
oc 5/ group of eight

10:29 am

bunnyvicious

don't have an ac 5, have an 5 - an + inmate

10:29 am

stidmama

thanks bunny...

10:30 am

Ankhorite

Bunny, I think you mean Medicaid for your state program, which is not nearly as good as Medicare. Medicaid is for people in DIRE poverty, Medicare is for any retired person (or person with a severe disability under age 65).

10:30 am

stidmama

and I meant SA 5 *sigh* maybe I need to put on my glasses!

10:30 am

stidmama

10:32 am

stidmama

two....

10:32 am

Ankhorite

Good, Bunny! Problem with Medicaid is each state sets its own eligibility; some more generous than others. In Virginia, you have to be this|close to homeless to get it.

10:32 am

hurshy

this whole discussion of sad things in life puts me in mind of a song... "someday at christmas..."

10:32 am

Each state MUST offer the minimum Medicaid requirements provided by federal law, and may offer more if the state so chooses

10:34 am

10:36 am

Eggcorn

10:36 am

stidmama

10:36 am

Ankhorite

Angela, there are two kinds. The neon te***s, which are shiny shiny red & blue even in normal light; and the new modified DNA ones, which luminesce in black light. Way cool. Thank you, Stid.

10:37 am

hurshy

neck wrap is also slang for eating food quickly

10:37 am

bunnyvicious

Sounds like Mr. Sinatra

10:37 am

LINY Mich

THANK YOU!!

10:37 am

Eggcorn

no children, hurshy

Ankhorite

Injected kinds? Eeeeew!

Angela

hey matty

10:38 am

stidmama

hi matty *reaching for fire extinguisher*

10:38 am

hurshy

i would like to glow... if it were not going to mean i was cancerous or something

10:38 am

Angelakk

10:39 am

Angela

Yeah, hurshy but how would you sleep at night? wouldn't you keep yourself awake?

10:39 am

Angela

bye bunny

10:39 am

hurshy

i don't think injections hurt animals as much, because when my cats get their vaccines they never seem bothered at all

10:39 am

Angela

you would be your own nite lite

10:39 am

smooth_pappa

oh man! one of my favorite childhood movies is in here but not a word! d'oh!

10:39 am

Angela

my cats HAAAAAATE it

10:40 am

hurshy

be my own night light!!! a dream come true!

10:40 am

stidmama

and I am heading out as well unless someone needs clues, my computer stores too much of my data for me to stay on in this weather

10:40 am

mattygroves

Do you need the extinguisher cuz of my icon or because of something I missed?

10:40 am

Angela

bunny

10:40 am

hurshy

my cats hate the vet in general - the smell, the cold metal table, but not so much the shots.

10:40 am

smooth_pappa

have a good day stid!

10:40 am

stidmama

yes, your icon -- unless your snake like to glow? *grin*

10:40 am

Angela

my vet comes to the house...cats mind it much less

when do you move into your new house, btw?

10:41 am

smooth_pappa

hurshy, I just gotta say, that your icon is one of my very favorite dalis. :-D

10:41 am

Ankhorite

What movie, Pappa? Hursh, you remember the poor ladies of the Elgin Clock Company in WW II? They were making glow-in-the-dark watches, and licking their brushes to get a good fine point on the numbers. Radiation poisoning.

10:42 am

Angela

yeah - he lives in the next town over and has to drive by anyway. Plus it's only an extra $35 bucks. And I would pay double that NOT to bring my 22 pound cat in the car

10:42 am

smooth_pappa

tron! it was so awesome when I was a kid!

10:42 am

Ankhorite

Good gravy, Angela, what is it, an ocelot? A jaguar? What?

10:42 am

Ankhorite

Oh, yeah, Pappa, gotta agree with that.

10:42 am

hurshy

it does make a lot more sense. and doctors, too, they shoudl still make house calls. when you're sick you don't want to go out. and bringing all the germs together makes no sense.

thank you smooth_pappa, glad you like it too.

ankh - golly, no, i hadn't heard about that!

10:42 am

Angela

Nope Ankh - just a big old diabetic tabby :)

10:42 am

lizmac

10:43 am

Ankhorite

Matty, nice icon, is it a clue?

10:43 am

Angela

he has the bedside manner of a wood chip though.

10:43 am

hurshy

10:43 am

stidmama

SW 5 24 is combo of bee sw*** and sc*** (neck wrap)

10:45 am

Angela

my brother in law had to put his dog down last year and had been going to this guy for 15 years with him. he came 15 minutes before close with the dog (a yellow lab) in his arms and they guy told him to call the vet on call. how horrible is that?

10:46 am

hurshy

:(

10:46 am

scatty

not sure stid, still waiting on the paperwork to go through, getting impatient though

10:46 am

Ankhorite

Extremely horrible. Our vet was SO kind during the awful day last year when we had to help Dog leave.

10:46 am

stidmama

that is so mean. when my parents' dog was ill and dying, our vet drove to the house so it would be easier for the puppy...

10:47 am

stidmama

{{{scatty}}} *keeping fingers crossed for a holiday move-in*

10:47 am

Ankhorite

Nice vet, Stid.

10:47 am

Angela

it was really awful - my brother in law is the biggest animal lover too - a cop and a really big guy, you wouldn't picture it but he is -

10:47 am

hurshy

i still find it odd that we think it is humane to put animals to sleep but really bad if a human with a terminal illness and extreme pain wants the same thing.

10:48 am

Angela

so he ended up going to a vet across town who he didn't know

10:48 am

Ankhorite

*FINALLY gets dog talk clue! Doh! Had that one*

10:48 am

Angela

ditto that Hurshy

10:48 am

Angela

lol ankh

10:48 am

stidmama

me three, hurshy. give me a comfy bed, my favorite chew toy, and let me drift off...

10:49 am

Ankhorite

Oh, Hursh, I think the majority of people think it's okay for humans to get help too -- as the Oregon assisted-suicide referendum proved -- but our politicians are responsive to a minority which disagrees vociferously. So me four, Hursh.

11:14 am

She said she had to go for a minute. She did not say she would be back in a minute ..

11:14 am
