Nice up there in kaitaia. Warmer than Auckland. A 21st in Kaitaia - that'll be a real hoot.

her 3 birth sisters are real hoots, lovely girls

Angb

There'll be a lot of singing and beer tonite --- You could probably fit the whole of Kaitaia in the town hall.

1:57 am

Andree

juliette's birth mother has never married or had any other children

1:57 am

Angb

Gosh - that's interesting. Must be a whole lot of feeling behind that one - sorry, that's probably not the right thing to say.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

2:51 am

sprite

I am not sure that is true, Ka&Ba ;)

2:53 am

Ka&Ba

So, if someone is certain that he or she may identify a fool or fanatic, is he or she wise, or simply being foolish?

2:54 am

sprite

It takes one to know one

Haz1558

Hello rolin!

3:22 am

FMitch

Finished a little while ago, smattering of French words but grid not too bad on the whole.

Morning rolin

Alors! I must think franglais....

Good morning sherb.

3:24 am

3:25 am

certainly is mild... I was sweltering yesterday in my winter clothes...

3:25 am

Morning sherb, got damp from all the overnight rain and windy but didn't get the gales they were forecasting.

3:25 am

sherb

morning Haz, FMitch, rolin and all :)

3:27 am

Haz1558

Have you been busy this week, sherb?

3:29 am

sherb

I've had some long days this week... looking forward to a good break at Christmas... have you started your preparations, Haz?

3:31 am

Haz1558

Absolutely not. I get later every year in direct opposition to the earliness of the shops starting to stock up.

3:31 am

hillary

any clues for the ap6?

3:32 am

Haz1558

Christmas puddings on Tesco shelves in September is just plain wrong! I enjoy Christmas, providing I can filter out the queuing etc.

3:32 am

hillary

I'm just taking a break from making my fruit mince.

3:33 am

Haz1558

You're well ahead of yourself, hillary!

3:34 am

sherb

if I think about it logically, I know it's possible to leave it to the last minute, but all the signs of Christmas trigger a mild panic in me...

3:34 am

FMitch

ap6/27 = comes from the French for "to perceive", a hasty glance or glimpse.

3:34 am

hillary

Normally I'm scrambling around second week of December!

3:34 am

sherb

I love a French clue! ...thanks FMitch :)

3:35 am

Haz1558

I go the opposite way! I tend to think ' There's ages yet'.

3:35 am

hillary

Brilliant clue, tks.

3:35 am

3:35 am

Haz1558

Thanks for the ap FMitch.

3:35 am

FMitch

yw :)

3:36 am

hillary

It's a bit odd starting before Advent but I'm determined not to get frantic this year.

3:37 am

Haz1558

We don't have a big family connection, no nieces or nephews, both sets of grandparents dead, so there's not so many to buy for. I do make a fuss on Christmas Day itself, but don't like all the frantic buying that goes on.

3:37 am

rolin

ok...over half way..am going off to have a girls day out with my daughter...i can see shop til we drop on the horizon..and perhaps...and very nice lunch..*s*

3:38 am

sherb

we're having a event at work (staff development, not a party) where we all have to wear a Christmas decoration, and there's prize for the best one... I'm looking for ideas...

3:38 am

FMitch

HAve a fun day rolin

3:38 am

sherb

we like to make our staff development events interesting...

3:38 am

Haz1558

Bye rolin.

3:39 am

Haz1558

Oh, sherb, we love to organise other people's events......

3:40 am

Haz1558

When you say wear a Christmas decoration, is the whole costume to be a Christmas decoration or can you get away with a hat or something?

3:40 am

hillary

It's not the buying for me so much as the cooking ... can't abide commercially made fruit mince or xmas pudding or xmas cake, all of which have to sit and ripen for at least a couple of weeks. Then there's baking the mince pies and the kids want to do a gingerbread house this year. The kitchen is chaos for weeks.

3:40 am

FMitch

*digs thinking cap out of drawer*

3:40 am

jean1953

good morning everybody:)

3:40 am

sherb

it's a good excuse to pop to Paperchase and see what they've got this year...

3:42 am

FMitch

Hi jean

3:42 am

Haz1558

If you all enjoy the traditional cakes and mince pies, then I can understand you wanting to make your own. We sin our souls here and don't even have Christmas pudding any more....... And not a sprout in sight.

3:43 am

sherb

I admire that hillary... I'm always full of good intentions, buy the ingredients... and then end up making a last minute dash to M&S...

3:43 am

sherb

morning jean :)

3:43 am

FMitch

We are going out for lunch this christmas and I'm not having turkey, woohoo

3:43 am

Odin

Mornin' All...hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and post holiday events.

3:44 am

hillary

It's a labour of love ... trouble is, xmases seem to get closer and closer together. It feels like last xmas was about 3 months ago.

3:44 am

jean1953

morning rolin:)

3:44 am

hillary

Anyone know the nu5?

3:44 am

Haz1558

Good morning Odin. We've had no holiday!

3:44 am

Odin

Hey sherb, Haz, FMitch, jean

3:45 am

sherb

morning Odin :) ...did you enjoy Thanksgiving?

3:45 am

Odin

I realize ... but it is the weekend for you...no work all play etc. Here in the states it is shopping chaos.

3:45 am

Odin

Thanksgiving was good...too much food, football, drinking...

3:46 am

FMitch

hilary the nu5/26 is another strange one and uses the lhigh scoring tile, will give better clue when I can think of one.

3:46 am

Haz1558

And no hoops or snakes!

3:47 am

FMitch

Heaven forbid I use any hoops or snakes - I promise Haz.

3:47 am

hillary

I thought it used the omega because of the high score but still can't work out what it is.

3:48 am

sherb

what's this about hoops and snakes? ...have I missed another interesting debate about clue-giving?

3:49 am

Haz1558

Sherb, some people use hoops, snakes, chairs, double humps to spell out words. Makes me foam at the mouth.....

3:50 am

sherb

bless them... they think they're in primary school...

3:50 am

FMitch

nu5/26 - alt sp for "if I elbow you gently and wink at the same time". Look like is should be a Jewish sp

3:51 am

Haz1558

Fmtich, I've just noodled the nu. I join you in trying to think of a clue....

3:51 am

hillary

Got it thanks FM, perfect clue.

3:52 am

sherb

another pet hate of mine are the clues that go... third letter + first letter etc etc

3:52 am

FMitch

Thank you, glad it worked!

3:53 am

Haz1558

We'll not do those when you're around, sherb!

3:55 am

sherb

still giggling at the thought of Haz foaming at the mouth...

3:56 am

Haz1558

And running the danger of husband injecting me with some antidote.

3:56 am

hillary

Fireworks... anyone want any clues before I resume peeling/grating?

3:57 am

FMitch

Congrats hilary

3:57 am

Haz1558

Well done, hillary!

3:58 am

FMitch

I fancy eating ginger cake :)

3:59 am

FMitch

or Haz's Baileys coffee cheesecake, yum yum!

3:59 am

hydra

A clue for the 2nd pe5/14 please! Well done, Hillary.

3:59 am

hillary

I love the smell of anything gingery baking... truth is I started home-making all the xmas stuff as an antidote to the homesickness I was feeling as an expat here in Australia... xmas here is... well, it isn't, actually!

4:00 am

Haz1558

The calorie count on that one must be enormous! But it IS good.

4:00 am

Haz1558

Oh my goodness, hillary, I didn't realise that you were in Australia. I can understand the baking then!

4:00 am

hillary

hydra, 2nd pe5/14 is a key ingredient in a Thanksgiving dessert.

4:01 am

sherb

oh hillary, I thought you were in the UK...

4:02 am

hydra

I don't know anything about Thanksgiving, apart from Turkey!

4:02 am

hillary

Sorry hydra, it's a nut from the southern united states, its shell is a beautiful mahogany colour and it is delicious.

4:02 am

hydra

Oh, just got it! I was thinking it was a fruit. Many thaks, Hillary.

4:03 am

hillary

been here more than 20 years, half my life as of this year!! But home is where the kids are.

4:05 am

Haz1558

Have you been home in between times?

4:06 am

hillary

Yes many times! And have had family visit here which has been great fun. My parents arrive next week in fact.

4:07 am

Haz1558

Oh, that will be lovely for you. And I'm sure they'll appreciate some sunshine. It gets pretty grey here!

4:10 am

hillary

Truly. But from memory "green and pleasant" applies all year round... even in an English winter the fields look like they have neon green underlighting!

4:10 am

hillary

Any more clues before I go?

4:11 am

Haz1558

On you go, hillary, let the baking begin!

4:11 am

hydra

Yes please! I need an re5/14. I have the one to do with corn...

4:11 am

hillary

Currency in India

4:12 am

hydra

That's an ru word - or is there an re too?

4:12 am

Haz1558

re5/14 - to go over a point again, wearing headgear

4:12 am

hillary

sorry... misread your request. re5/14 is to revisit a subject.

4:13 am

hydra

I've got the headgear, Haz. I'll try the revisiting one. Thanks, you too.

4:13 am

sherb

time for me to head off the waitrose... later folks :)

4:13 am

Haz1558

It's the same one, hydra!

4:14 am

hydra

Oh. There's another, though.

4:14 am

hillary

Ah... it is to incise again.

4:14 am

FMitch

re5/14 - to hang you washing up again

4:14 am

FMitch

Oh no thats a 5/16

4:15 am

hydra

Sorry, Hillary, the corn one is an re4, so I misled you. I have the washing, I have the revisiting, but there's one more re5/14.

4:16 am

Haz1558

re plus to use scissors

4:16 am

hillary

Yes, it's to make another incision.

4:16 am

hydra

Brilliant! Thanks very much. Just 7 left to find now.

5:41 am

mrpresident

juice is juice!! bring on the beast puzzle! makes for an interesting chat log too!

5:41 am

Jacula

I'm with MrP. A large grid for Sunday would be lovely!

5:42 am

Eva

was enjoying the quote puzzler games for a while, but don't like sites that bait and switch-get you involved with the promise of free games and then suddenly withdraw pretty much everything if you don't pay up, so I stopped playing.

5:42 am

Eva

any other suggestions?

5:42 am

mrpresident

they did that??

5:43 am

Jacula

Eva - I joined that site but didn't get around to playing. When I did try, about a month after, the free stuff was no longer free. I didn't pay up.

5:43 am

Eva

is that your ferret jac?

5:43 am

mrpresident

that just sucks big balls!!

5:44 am

Jacula

Eva - Refresh. The ferret's gone. It's Beatniks now. No, not my ferret.

5:44 am

Eva

To be fair, I think the site was still evolving, but there's not at all enough to it to be worth paying for.

5:44 am

Jacula

eastoftheweb is a nice word games site. I'll find the address...

5:44 am

Eva

and I can't deal with sudoku at all....

5:46 am

Eva

thanks jac, going to go look at it now

5:47 am

Eva

bye for a while

5:47 am

Jacula

Eva - Don't forget to come back & put your Beatnik pic up. (There are so many games over there!)

3:33 pm

bubba218

nope, totally different

3:33 pm

autumn moon

3:33 pm

LeslieAnn

3:33 pm

capemaggie

thanks, leslie

3:34 pm

Natasha

3:34 pm

LeslieAnn

3:34 pm

Flask1

3:34 pm

Natasha

3:35 pm

bubba218

I learned on both electric and manual. I wonder if they even teach typing any longer-- manybe just what they call keyboarding

3:35 pm

LeslieAnn

ce + two-point letter + 2nd vowel, flask

3:35 pm

autumn moon

Flask - do you have the 4/5

3:36 pm

Ankhorite

Thanks, Bubba, never coulda done it without you! Thanks all for the clues & the company!

3:36 pm

Flask1

Autumn...yes

3:36 pm

autumn moon

Flask - did you get that CE

3:36 pm

Ankhorite

*will stay to clue for a few*

3:37 pm

Flask1

not yet

3:37 pm

LeslieAnn

how about the z, ankh?

3:37 pm

Ankhorite

Natasha, you're looking lovely today. Your icon fits the beatnik theme of the day just naturally.

3:37 pm

autumn moon

Flask - LeslieAnne clued at 3:35

3:38 pm

Ankhorite

Z is a four-letter two-syllable word for an age of prehistoric time. The name of the age.

3:38 pm

Natasha

thanks ankh, I don't actually change it so it is nice to fit into the theme once in a while, lol.

3:38 pm

LeslieAnn

aha got it

3:39 pm

Ankhorite

Yeah, I thought not! When I first came here, I thought the themes were silly and I was a plain hamster every day, but now I'm into it. :)

3:40 pm

Ankhorite

A sad Thanksgiving story: my mother-out-law beat me at Scrabble! Wah!!! It ain't right!

3:40 pm

Natasha

I do think about changing it sometimes, but I have a very old computer and little storage space so I don't really do it.

3:40 pm

Ankhorite

Natasha, that icon is just... well... iconic! It's lovely. I was crazy about her when I was little.

3:40 pm

LeslieAnn

sorry about that ankh. i hope you didn't cry like that when it happened, though

3:40 pm

Natasha

Oh, no ankh! I'm sure it was a fluke. Love the mother-out-law term, by the way.

3:41 pm

cattyrina

Thanks guys, for all your congrats and help. Sorry for delayed response I was away getting my Saltire ( I hope) and my beatnik beret. You like?

3:41 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, Leslie, I did! Heh heh... I had won the first two, and "Mom" was determined to break my streak. Some good words we had: Dad got "dangled" and Dear One got "hygiene" on a triple word score. Thanks -- don't know what else to call her. Wonderful woman.

3:42 pm

Natasha

fabulous catty

3:42 pm

LeslieAnn

nice catty! congrats on the pro status :)

3:42 pm

Ankhorite

Catty, you look GREAT! And now you and Flask match!!! Welcome to the tribe!

3:42 pm

cattyrina

Happy to be here. x

3:43 pm

Ankhorite

Okay, to show you around: see Lickety's clues link on the bottom right?

3:43 pm

LeslieAnn

(bottom left)

3:43 pm

Ankhorite

You can open that in a new window. But don't bother filling it in until you know you are stuck on a particular letter.

3:43 pm

cattyrina

yup.

3:43 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, woops, right, Leslie. I mean my OTHER right, the left one. coughCOUGHcogh

3:44 pm

cattyrina

lol

3:44 pm

Ankhorite

Okay, now, at Lickety's site, on the real right... not the right I got wrong before... there are some paragraphs and whatnot.

3:44 pm

Ankhorite

One of those will say, "icon themes" fourth link down.

3:45 pm

Ankhorite

You can dress up for the themes or not, whatever you like.

3:46 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, your profile: if you have a cat or dog or something, you may as well add the name/color/breed or people (okay, me) will pester you forever asking what, what kind, what color, etc.

3:47 pm

LeslieAnn

hey ankh? i'm missing one of the middle e's. have ep 4/5...

3:47 pm

cattyrina

lol! Cool, will do.

3:48 pm

Ankhorite

Another easy way to get the theme is to go to the tab that says "Who's Online" and add Babbler as a friend. Then you can go right to it by clicking friends in the future.

3:48 pm

cattyrina

Leslie- It's like that treaty we were talking about before but online

3:49 pm

Natasha

I can't find the last pe 4/5 for the life of me...

3:49 pm

LeslieAnn

aha got it

3:49 pm

Ankhorite

LeslieAnn, it's weird. You might have a wisdom tooth that is im****ed; this is kind of like that.

3:49 pm

LeslieAnn

pe*** piper, natasha?

3:49 pm

Ankhorite

natasha, hard to believe, when your character is so bright and pe**!

3:50 pm

Ankhorite

Ooh, good clue, Catty.

3:50 pm

Natasha

oh man, throw me a fish!

3:50 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, would you rather be Catty or Rina? Or the whole thing all the time? Whatever, just say so in your profile.

3:50 pm

Ankhorite

*heaves a saucy fish at the Russian girlchik*

3:50 pm

LeslieAnn

don't make it saucy, she'll drop it!

3:51 pm

Ankhorite

But saucy fits with the clue! :)

3:51 pm

Natasha

I'm saucy enough all on my own...

3:52 pm

LeslieAnn

oh, i guess it's ok then.

3:52 pm

Ankhorite

Indeed! That's why I wanted to be the Natasha character when I was little. She was so exotic and obviously so powerful (cuz of her looks, I'm afraid) and brave and smart and so BAAAAD!

3:52 pm

cattyrina

Either's fine Ankh, the reason I chose the username is cos it's made up of two of my nicknames.

3:53 pm

cattyrina

you choose!

3:53 pm

Ankhorite

Okeydokey. :)

3:53 pm

Natasha

exactly, although what she was doing with that stupid boris I'll never know

3:53 pm

Ankhorite

I couldn't resist the little flag, either, that's how I got sucked in. I didn't realize I'd enjoy the icon-making so much. Oh, Natasha, just leading Boris around on a leash!

3:54 pm

LeslieAnn

missing one g? have ge 4/7

3:54 pm

metaleather

I think she and Nell from Dudley Doright would have been a good match

3:54 pm

Ankhorite

The so-smart voooman behind the dopey man! As a child in the 60's, that meant a lot to me. My kindergarten teacher told me I couldn't be an astronaut cuz I was (still am, all) a GIRL.

3:54 pm

cattyrina

change the consonant at the end leslie

3:54 pm

Natasha

true, ankh! still, I think she'd be better off with another saucy gal...I may be projecting though!

3:54 pm

LeslieAnn

hey metal

3:54 pm

Ankhorite

Leslie, they're almost the same. Change final consonant

3:55 pm

Natasha

metal--that's hilarious. never thought of that combination, it's a good one

3:55 pm

metaleather

hey all

3:55 pm

Ankhorite

Natasha, I'm pretty darn sure they weren't going to encode THAT message in the cartoon, LOL!!! But maybe she wears that purple for a purpose, eh?

3:55 pm

LeslieAnn

oh ge**

3:55 pm

Ankhorite

*agrees with Metal*

3:55 pm

Ankhorite

*tosses Leslie a shrimp*

3:55 pm

metaleather

I think it'd be a good match.. one ultra femme, one domme

3:55 pm

Natasha

that's what I choose to think, anhk!

3:56 pm

cattyrina

well done Leslie. lol

3:56 pm

metaleather

both smart, but using it differently

3:56 pm

Ankhorite

So many of my buddies got so excited when Janet Reno wore purple to her first major press conference... :)

3:57 pm

LeslieAnn

i'm trying listless, that's my excuse for the fishiness, brain's kinda mushy

3:57 pm

Natasha

heh...I've always thought of her as more asexual. Is she a lesbian?

3:57 pm

Ankhorite

Yeah, Metal, they'd be perfect complements to one another.

3:57 pm

LeslieAnn

remember janet reno's dance party on snl? i loved that skit

3:57 pm

Ankhorite

No, Nat, Reno isn't, but if wishing would make it so, that woman would be leading parades in San Francisco every Sunday.

3:57 pm

Natasha

LOL!

3:58 pm

metaleather

time for me to buckle down and finish these last ten so I can converse without the niggling pull of the grid

3:58 pm

Ankhorite

I mean, yes, she's kind of off the dating market and no, she's not lesbian.

3:58 pm

metaleather

what's today's theme by the way?

3:58 pm

LeslieAnn

beatniks

3:58 pm

Ankhorite

But a LOVELY person, and if she (Beatniks, metal) were lesbian, there'd be a line around the block to go out with her.

3:58 pm

metaleather

cool, thanks

3:59 pm

Natasha

I thought she always got a bad rap, that's for sure.

3:59 pm

Ankhorite

Yes, she did get a bad rap. She's a helluva person, I am a dedicated fan.

3:59 pm

LeslieAnn

missing two f's from the fourth row - have fe 4/7 (and the heaters)

4:00 pm

Natasha

have you actually met her ankh? or know others who have?

4:00 pm

metaleather

brb, getting "dressed" for the day

4:00 pm

Ankhorite

She really had leadership qualities: the buck stopped with her, and she wasn't pompous at all. Whatever army she's leading, you wanna march in it. Yes, I've met her a couple of times, and had the great honor of preparing a briefing book for her to play a moot court (Supreme Court) about the first woman who wanted a law license in Illinois.

4:00 pm

Natasha

the fe5 and 6 use the 6 letter tile leslie

4:01 pm

LeslieAnn

it's so easy with the clues, natasha! thanks

4:01 pm

Ankhorite

Leslie, if you were really cold... except without the second consonant.

4:01 pm

Natasha

yw

4:02 pm

LeslieAnn

3 left... i can see the light at the end of the tunnel :)

4:02 pm

Natasha

It is always interesting to hear from people who've actually interacted with politicians--you just don't get the real story from the media

4:02 pm

Ankhorite

go LA go LA go LA go LA

4:03 pm

LeslieAnn

that's for dang sure ;)

4:03 pm

Ankhorite

Well, and some of them are fakey in private, too, but she's not. And every time I met her was for a charity to train women lawyers here and in Africa.

4:04 pm

Ankhorite

Not just "women" lawyers, but lawyers specializing in women (and there have been two men in the program in the past 15 years)

4:04 pm

metaleather

am back now

4:05 pm

metaleather

go LA

4:05 pm

Natasha

sounds like you are involved in some great causes yourself, ankh

4:05 pm

Ankhorite

Scroll back, Metal, while we admire your icon!

4:05 pm

metaleather

will do

4:05 pm

LeslieAnn

sorry, so stuck right now... missing an r from the top row... have 2 ru 4/6s

4:05 pm

LeslieAnn

haha cute icon, metal

4:05 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, METAL! It's AWFUL! Perfect! perfectly awful!!!
Thank you, Nat. :)

Uneaixoise

4:06 pm

cattyrina

Am back too. Was adding friends... (If that isn't too presumptious!) I don't think you missed much though-I don't think any stories of an interaction with any of my politicians would mean anything to you guys!!

4:06 pm

Ankhorite

LeslieAnn

it could go in the soup, but lots of times when you put sour cream or yogurt, etc. in soups while cooking... they separate into the liquid part and little bits of milk solids

it doesn't harm the taste, but it looks weird

6:49 pm

melonheadjujube

Angb - as my kids would say, "what's a clothesline" - wonder if your clue only works on your side of the pond - nonetheless, i got it - all's swell that ends swell!

6:49 pm

Biltong

pe 5/12 is a boys name - to fade away

6:49 pm

6:51 pm

FranMag

although i do have a clothesline.

6:51 pm

Minveryork

Thank you for the pe clue.I thought about that word but thought it would not work because it was a name

6:51 pm

Angb

melon - do you all use clothdryers?

6:53 pm

FranMag

most people these days have driers angb, not me though, still hang our laundry, saves money on power.

6:54 pm

melonheadjujube

my mom had a line, it seems that it was universal in my childhood - now i hardly ever see one - affluence? - i use the laundromat. my landlord hangs the laundry in the basement - they are very, very frugal.

6:54 pm

Angb

Hmmm - everyone here say that driers grey your clothes - sunlight whitens them ... could be rubbish of course

6:54 pm

melonheadjujube

sunlight makes them smell good - that's for sure.

6:55 pm

Angb

I actually don't have a clothesline. Partner wanted to put in a drive up the back for his new shed. Line was in the way --- is still sitting on its side in the back paddock. I hang the clothes on a clotheshorse inside

6:55 pm

FranMag

sunlight does make certain things brighter, but it also fades things quickly. i hang darker things inside my washroom.

7:05 pm

melonheadjujube

Angb - it's my own Babble goal - halfway plus all 7s & 8s - that second half just takes too much time. Somehow, I came to designate it mediocrity - which does mean middling after all.

7:06 pm

7:23 pm

melonheadjujube

There is only one vowel in the nu and the big tile is the second to last letter

7:24 pm

i think the nu5 is a yiddishism that means a pesterer, usually spelled just like to elbow someone.

7:24 pm

11:15 pm

FranMag

a very sad story

11:15 pm

stidmama

I have your AIM, but my IM client thingy is buggy. :-(

11:16 pm

stidmama

If the grid is smaller than 150 I'll wait until then to start, if it's bigger, I'll see how far I get.

11:16 pm

featherbee

hee, hopefully i'll be awake! yes, i was just typing something about the grid size

11:17 pm

jillibus

stid -- do you have snow? I do -- about 4" of heavy wet stuff

11:17 pm

featherbee

ok, i'm heading off to bed....stayed up wayy too late

11:17 pm

stidmama

no, much to stidgrant's disappointment. It was predicted, but never materialized

11:17 pm

stidmama

okay, feather, see you tomorrow! :-)

11:17 pm

featherbee

11:18 pm

jillibus

11:18 pm

FranMag

11:19 pm

stidmama

Fran, that is really awful! what a sad thing.

11:20 pm

FranMag

isn't it?

11:20 pm

jillibus

oh dear! How horrible!

11:20 pm

FranMag

i guess the bookcase was so heavy she couldn't scream for someone either.

11:22 pm

stidmama

well, if she was not able to breathe, she certainly couldn't call for help. Poor thing.

11:22 pm

stidmama

anyone need clues?

11:22 pm

FranMag

brb, my charming son is screaming for ice cream

11:23 pm

jillibus

does stidgrant like skiing or what?

11:29 pm

jillibus

Where is everybody???

11:29 pm

FranMag

okay, back

11:30 pm

stidmama

sorry, got distracted. yes, they like skiing, but we don't have our own skiis. Hope to take them up to White Pass soon thought.

11:31 pm

GreyWoulf

hi jilli -- I am trying to play lit while lurking and chatting, but the tile gods are being vengeful tonite

11:31 pm

stidmama

or though. *sigh* I do okay on grammar quizzes, but this time of night my overall concentration is poor!

11:31 pm

jillibus

just wondered why he was disappointed when you didn't get snow.

11:31 pm

jillibus

hi woulf! Need any clues?

11:32 pm

stidmama

Jill -- do you have enough of what you need so you don't have to drive for a while?

11:32 pm

stidmama

oh -- he's hoping it'll be too snowy for school on Monday. I told him even if school is cancelled, he's going! LOL

11:32 pm

GreyWoulf

nope -- I finished earlier

11:32 pm

jillibus

Yes, stid, stocked up this evenign and had a very scary drive home in the dark with snow flying at me and slippery roads

11:33 pm

stidmama

oh Jill! *gasp of horror* so glad you got home okay!

11:33 pm

jillibus

And I'm staying put as long as necessary!

11:33 pm

stidmama

Do you have a woodstove or something so you stay warm if the power goes out?

11:34 pm

jillibus

I have a gas fireplace and a gas bbq with a burner I can cook on

11:34 pm

stidmama

Our generator allows us to keep the house livable (no wood or oilstove).

11:35 pm

FranMag

jilli, glad you got home okay!

11:35 pm

stidmama

okay, then you'll be okay. *nods with satisfaction*

11:35 pm

jillibus

We had a generator back east because if we lost power the pump for our well went out and we had no water

11:35 pm

FranMag

i'm so glad we don't have to worry about heat here.

11:35 pm

stidmama

yes, the other reason we have the generator! :-)

11:36 pm

jillibus

fran -- you don't have to worry about snow either!

11:36 pm

stidmama

that's true, Fran! though if it dips below 65 I suspect you start piling on the blankets...

11:36 pm

FranMag

well it snows in some parts of the state, but not in Oahu

11:37 pm

FranMag

and it rarely gets into the low 60s where we are, but there have been times that we had to "bundle up" a little more at night.

11:37 pm

jillibus

Really fran??? On mountainous ground, I suppose

11:38 pm

FranMag

of course i grew up in an even more tropical climate so when it gets below 70 i'm chilly

11:38 pm

stidmama

We put our tree together today -- my allergies really don't allow us to have a real tree, so last year we bought a skinny 7.5 foot one on sale. It fits our home beautifully. AND it came pre-strung with lights... Way better than the tabletop one I had from college. Tomorrow we decorate!

11:38 pm

jillibus

Me too, fran

11:38 pm

FranMag

yes jilli, mauna kea has snow

11:38 pm

FranMag

people actually ski there

11:38 pm

FranMag

how nice stid!

11:39 pm

stidmama

Wow. skiing in hawaii -- who knew? is it good skiing, fran?

11:39 pm

stidmama

I never really acclimated to the mainland after Puerto Rico, 30 + years ago... but I do okay as long as I have warm socks and a sweater.

11:39 pm

FranMag

i have no idea stid, i think it's kind of rough, not much snow and the ground is rocky.

11:39 pm

jillibus

We never used to decorate for Christmas until Christmas Eve -- times change

11:40 pm

FranMag

http://www.bestplaceshawaii.com/tips/b
ig_kahuna/ski.html

11:41 pm

stidmama

Our family celebrates St. Nicholas Day and the Yule, not Christmas. Our parents celebrate christmas, though.

11:41 pm

FranMag

there's a link that talks about the skiing on the big island.

11:42 pm

stidmama

Okay Fran, I'll check it out. Would be fun for the kids if we ever get that far...

11:42 pm

jillibus

When is St Nicholas Day? When is Yule (thought it was Xmas)? Why not Christmas itself?

11:42 pm

stidmama

St. Nicholas Day is Dec 6. It's the actual Saint's day.

11:43 pm

jillibus

My skiing days are over

11:43 pm

stidmama

Not Christmas for SO many reasons, Jill! LOL If you really want to know, I'll put it in an email.

11:43 pm

stidmama

Yule is the solstice.

11:43 pm

jillibus

OK stid! I really want to knw.

11:44 pm

stidmama

okay Jill -- you'll have it tomorrow morning (if both our power stays on)

11:44 pm

FranMag

Dec. 6th is Sinterklaas day, it's one of our themes coming up.

11:45 pm

stidmama

Sinterklaas is Dutch for Saint Nicholas...

11:45 pm

FranMag

Sinterklaas, St. Nicolas, Santa Claus

11:45 pm

FranMag

yup, figured that stid
