12:38 am

renfield

that's a pretty word - hoku - star - i like that!

12:39 am

hurshy

12:41 am

great second clue

2:07 am

VolleymomDee

this old blonde brain functions ever so slow lol

2:08 am

metaleather

ty, tyvm. as you can most likely tell, I'm a Trekkie (or as they prefer to call themselves nowadays, a Trekker)

2:08 am

VolleymomDee

lol cool

2:09 am

metaleather

you're an embroiderer too? I love it.

2:10 am

VolleymomDee

me too; have never done much more than pillow cases and wall hangings, but I love doing it

2:12 am

metaleather

not too many people these days do crewel. do you prefer Jacobean designs or more modern?

2:14 am

VolleymomDee

not sure I know the difference; How do you define Jacobean? I like the Crewel stitches ... satin stitches, French knots - flowers, samplers with verses

2:16 am

metaleather

from what I have read, it's not so much a matter of the stitches as it is the type of thread used. Embroidery stitches are the same whether it's crewel or regular embroidery. The thread for Crewel is usually a thin yarn or perle cotton, where you use embroidery floss for "regular" embroidery

2:17 am

VolleymomDee

okay; I usually use 3 to 6 threads. What then is Jacobean?

2:17 am

metaleather

Jacobean work is highly stylized designs, usually floral... like what you'd see in colonial bed linens or clothing... the stitches used there are mostly chain, split, long/short with some outline and french knots

2:18 am

VolleymomDee

I must like Jacobean then; I have done a few wall coverings and two pillow covers that sound like what you are describing

2:19 am

metaleather

if you google image search for crewel, it'll show you what I mean about crewel designs

2:19 am

VolleymomDee

I usually shop for kits at Janylyn.com and Hershners (I hope I spelled that correctly)

2:19 am

VolleymomDee

ok brb

2:19 am

metaleather

same for Jacobean

2:19 am

metaleather

close enough, I know the company well

2:20 am

metaleather

have their latest catalog on my nightstand

2:20 am

metaleather

have you ever tried needlepoint?

2:22 am

VolleymomDee

crewel classic looks like what I have done; I also have done several table runners. I have never done needlepoint.

2:23 am

metaleather

needlepoints a breeze, once you get over the switch working on cloth to working on canvas. the stitches are basically the same

2:24 am

VolleymomDee

I am extremely slow, but I love how precise it is, and I love to see the pictures unfold!

2:24 am

metaleather

you should try it some time

2:24 am

metaleather

me too Dee, and I love the way the texture of the fabric feels as the design gets closer and closer to completion

2:25 am

metaleather

it changes from soft and malleable to more structured, even stiff if the work is intense in a particular area

2:25 am

VolleymomDee

totally agree. In needlepoint, do you have to use a grid to count, or do you use stamped designs?

2:26 am

metaleather

you can go either way

2:26 am

metaleather

some canvases come pre-painted

2:26 am

metaleather

other times, you work from a grid, especially if the design is geometric

2:26 am

metaleather

you should check out the ANG web site

I totally agree. I will do that!

2:34 am

metaleather

when you go to the ANG site, be sure to check out the Stitch of the Month...

2:35 am

VolleymomDee

sounds like fun. How long have you done needlework?

2:35 am

metaleather

every year they put up instructions on how to do different stitches, new ones each month... the December design has the completed design, using all the newly learned stitches

2:36 am

VolleymomDee

wow how beautiful!

2:36 am

metaleather

lemme see now... i'm 48, and close enough to 49 to spit and hit it so I've probably been doing some kind of stitching or another for at least 45 years

2:37 am

VolleymomDee

you must be amazing! My grandmother taught me when I was very little. Then when I got rheumatoid I started again to try to keep my fingers nimble. I so wish I had a needlework buddy around here... seems to be a lost art.

2:39 am

metaleather

I am just me kiddo... sometimes a wee bit amazing, but mostly just ordinary ol' me.

2:39 am

a needlework buddy does sound good

Angb

Happy New Year Jean.

3:33 am

Angb

3:34 am

ren8

very true Fran - I was on phone the other day and he says sssh mummy I am watching tele, how old is he!!

3:35 am

3:35 am

FranMag

well that's good news angb.

3:35 am

ren8

Was locked up in the slimy cellar,
Where rats who wanted things to eat,
Began to nibble at her feet

4:28 am

FranMag

4:28 am

She bellowed, "Help!" and "Let me out!" The Magic Fairy heard her shout.

I want a dress! I want a coach!
And earrings and a diamond brooch!
And silver slippers, two of those!
And lovely nylon panty-hose!
Done up like that I'll guarantee
The handsome Prince will fall for me!"

4:33 am

Flask1

4:33 am

mrpresident

It made the Ungly Sisters wince to see her dancing with the Prince.
She held him very tight and pressed herself against his manly chest.
The Prince himself was turned to pulp, all he could do was gasp and gulp!

4:33 am

FranMag

cool flask!

4:33 am

lynxxx

4:34 am

mrpresident

Then midnight struck. She shouted, "Heck! I've got to run to save my neck!" The Prince cried, "NO! ALAS! ALACK! He grabbed her dress to hold her back.

4:34 am

FranMag

post star trek, she was transported

4:34 am

ConXshun

4:34 am

4:35 am

mrpresident

As Cindy shouted, "LET ME GO!" The dress was ripped from head to toe. She ran out in her underwear, and lost one slipper on the stair.

4:35 am

FranMag

4:36 am

mrpresident

The Prince was on it like a dart, he pressed it to his pounding heart,
"The girl this slipper fits", he cried "Tomorrow morn shall be miy bride! I'll visit every house in town, until I've tracked that maiden down!"

4:36 am

lynxxx

4:37 am

Angb

What is this leading to ... beer at the ball?

4:37 am

mrpresident

At once, one of the Ugly Sisters, (The one whose face was blotched with blisters) sneaked up and grabbed the dainty shoe,
And quickly flushed it down the loo!

4:38 am

mrpresident

Then in its place she calmly put the slipper from her own left foot!

4:38 am

Atalante

LOL fran my first thought from that was chewing cud *sigh*

4:39 am

ConXshun

Next day, the Prince went charging down to knock on all the doors in twon.
In every house, the tension grew.
Who was the owner of the shoe!

4:40 am

FranMag

4:40 am

ConXshun

box of tissues at the ready!

4:40 am

Angb

Ah yes fran - but for who?

4:40 am

mrpresident

The shoe was long and very wide.
(A normal foot got lost inside.)
Also it smelled a wee bit icky.
The owners feet were hot and sticky

4:40 am

ConXshun

4:41 am

ConXshun

Thousands of eager people came to try it on, but all in vain. Now came the Ugly Sister's go. One tried it on, but the Prince screamed "NO!!!!"

4:42 am

Angb

Aha

4:42 am

mrpresident

But she screamed, "YES! IT FITS! WHOOPEE!! Now you've got to marry me!"

4:42 am

mrpresident

The Prince went white from ear to ear, He muttered, "Let's get out of here!"
"Oh no you don't, you've made a vow! There's no way you can back out now!

4:43 am

mrpresident

"OFF WITH HER HEAD!" the Prince roared back
They chopped it off with one big whack!

4:44 am

FranMag

ooh, the story takes an ugly turn

4:44 am

mrpresident

This pleased the Prince, he smiled and said, "She's prettier without her head."

4:44 am

ConXshun

thats what you get for being pushy

4:44 am

Angb

What this prince will do - power gone mad

4:44 am

mrpresident

Then up came sister number two, who yelled, "Now I will try the shoe!"

4:45 am

mrpresident

"TRY THIS INSTEAD!" The Prince yelled back. He swung his trusty sward and SMACK - Her head went crashing to the ground.
It bounced a little and rolled around.

4:46 am

FranMag

if i were cindy, I'd stay far away from that wacko

4:46 am

mrpresident

In the kitchen peeling spuds, Cinderella heard the thuds.
Of bouncing heads upon the floor, and poked her own head around the door.

4:48 am

Angb

4:50 am

Angb

Now what will she wish for?

Cindy answered, "Oh kind Fairy, this time I shall be more wary. No more Princes, no more money... I have had my taste of honey. I'm wishing for a decent man, they're hard to find. D'you think you can?"

4:52 am

ConXshun

Jack and The Beanstalk - revolting rhymes

Jack's mother said, "We're stony broke!"
Go out and find some wealthy bloke who'll buy our cow... just say she's sound, and worth at least a hundred pound.

5:02 am

mrpresident

But don't you dare to let him know that she's as old as billy-o"

5:03 am

mrpresident

Jack led the old brown cow away and came back later in the day.
And said, "Oh mumsie dear, guess what your clever little by has got
I got, I really don't know how,
A super trade-in for our cow!"

5:05 am

herinfernallady

5:05 am

herinfernallady

opps that was the tr 6 please

5:05 am

mrpresident

The mother said, "You little creep, I'll bet you sold her much too cheap!"
When Jack produced one lousy bean, his startled mother, turning green, leaped high up in the air and cried,
"I'M ABSOLUTELY STUPIFIED!"

5:05 am

Flask1

Uh-Oh....

5:05 am

mrpresident

You crazy boy! D'you really mean you sold our Daisy for a bean??

5:05 am

5:06 am

mrpresident

She snatched the bean, she yelled, "You chump!" and flung it on the rubbish dump.

5:06 am

mrpresident

Then summoning up all her power, she beat the boy for half an hour... using (and nothing could be meaner) the handle of a vacuum cleaner

5:07 am

mrpresident

At ten p.m. or there about, the little bean began to sprout.
My morning it had grown so tall you couldn't see the top at all

5:07 am

herinfernallady

nope not a clue

5:07 am

mrpresident

Young Jack cried, "MUM, admit it now! It's better than a rotten cow!

5:08 am

ConXshun

5:09 am

5:09 am

mrpresident

The mother said, "You lunatic! Where are the beans that I can pick? There's not one bean, it's bare as bare!"
"No NO!" cried Jack, "Look up there!
Look very high and you'll behold each single leaf is solid gold!"

5:09 am

ConXshun

on the tr 5 and an ending - the last half vowel type letter thing

5:11 am

mrpresident

By gollikins, the boy was right!
Now, glistening in the morning light, the mother actually perceives a mass of lovely golden leaves!
She yells out loud, "MY SAINTED SOULS! I'll sell the mini and buy a Rolls!
Don't stand a gape you little clot! Get up there quick and grab the lot!"

5:11 am

herinfernallady

5:12 am

mrpresident

Jack was nimble, Jack was keen. He scrabled up the mighty bean.
Up he went without a stop, but just as he was near the top... A ghastly frightening thing occured - Not far above his head he hear
A big deep voice, a rumbling thing that made the very heavens ring

5:12 am

scarydeb

herin - long hair is often called the plural of the tr5 (not in grid) just add the 25th letter

And use their fur for mittens.

It shouted loud, "FE FI FO FUM, I SMELL THE BLOOD OF AN ENGLISHMAN!"
Jack was frightened, Jack was quick and down he climbed in half a tick!

5:14 am

5:14 am

ConXshun

matty - did you inspire r dahl or something?

5:14 am

mrpresident

"Oh Mum!" he gasped."Believe you me there's something nasty up our tree!
I saw him mum! my gizzard froze! A Giant with a clever nose!"

5:15 am

mattygroves

The first one (the dogs) comes from James Thurbers' "The Thirteen Clocks" - great book

5:15 am

Little Willy is no more.
What he thought was H2O,
Was H2SO4.

5:16 am

mrpresident

"A clever nose?" his mother hissed.
"You must be going round the twist!"
"He smelled me out, I swear it mum! He said he smelled an Englishman!"

5:16 am

mrpresident

The mother said, "And well he might. I've told you every single night!
To take a bath because you smell, but would you do it? WOULD YOU HELL!

5:17 am

mrpresident

You even make your mother shrink, because of your unholy sink!"

mrpresident

Jack answered, "Well, if you're so clean... why don't you climb the crazy bean?"

5:18 am

mrpresident

The mother cried, "By gad, I will! There's life within the old dog still!"
She hitched her skirts above her knee and disappeared right up the tree.

5:20 am

mattygroves

Gutmen should so be a word. We have many in the local pub.

5:21 am

mrpresident

Now would the Giant smell his mum?
Jack listened for the fee-fo-fum.
He gazed aloft. He wondered when the dreaded words would come.... And then... from somewhere high above the ground... there came the frightful crunching sound
He heard the Giant mutter twice, "By Gosh! that tasted mighty nice.... Although (and this in grumpy tones) I wish athere weren't so many bones"

5:22 am

mrpresident

"By christopher!" Jack cried. "By gum! The Giant's eaten up my mum!" He smelled her out! She's in his belly! I had a hunch that she was smelly!"

5:24 am

mrpresident

ack stood there gazing longingly, upon the huge and golden tree.
He murmured softly, "Golly-gosh, I guess I'll have to take a wash... if I am going to climb this tree, without the Giant smelling me. In fact a bath's my only hope...."
He rushed indoors and grabbed the soap

5:24 am

mrpresident

scrubbed his body everywhere.
He even washed and rinsed his hair.
He did his teeth, he blew his nos
And went out smelling like a rose

5:26 am

mrpresident

Once more he climbed the might bean.
The Giant sat there, gross, obscene,
Muttering through his vicious teeth
(While Jack sat tensely just beneath)
Muttering loud, "FEE FI FO FUM, RIGHT NOW i CAN'T SMELL ANYONE!"

5:26 am

mrpresident

Jack waited till the Giant slept, then out along the boughs he crept
And gathered so much gold, I swear he was an instant millionaire!

5:27 am

mrpresident

"A bath," he said, "does seem to pay.... I'm going to have one every day" :) :)

5:27 am

8:41 am

I can't stand the way Liverpool supporters are always moaning.....they should try being without players of the calibre of Terry, Cole & Cech for a while.....

9:06 am

broony

You don't want to get me on the subject of the red ***** They always get away with murder - literally - but it's never their fault - always the victims. Most bad things that have happened to Everton have been caused by that lot. Of course when your chairman is also in charge of Sky Sports football money......say no more

Babble Rabble, I used the last part of your bio in a HR presentation on Thursday. Cited Plato. But.. for the last quote. But to cite "Babble Rabble" for the candle quote seemed....counterproductive to the flow of the presentation so I cited it "unknown". hahahaha . never thought I'd quote babble for work. 2 worlds colliding

10:55 am

girlfriday

one shortcut way to make Smores (particularly in Europe) is to buy the Lu brand cookies, the Le Petit Ecolier ones and just put a marshmallow on top and add another cookie. Instant smore...and yummy!

10:55 am

K.Elisabet

so while we are on the subject, how about cornbread - do you have that over there? My French neighbors had never encountered it before I made some for them

10:55 am

The te 7 is well developed and ends in a long thin strongly-curved uncus. Usually the shoulders of the te 7 (the areas on each side of the base of the uncus) are produced into a pair of processes, which may be long and sharp or short and rounded; frequently these bear a patch of stiff spines.

Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:

4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points

For example, on my old computer, if you inserted a word that was good, it would repeat the word in a green box and add it to the list, and red if it wasn't good or a repeat...but this new computer has a graphics glitch. Oh well. HAPPY NEW YEAR, ALL. IF YOU'RE DRIVING, BE SAFE OUT THERE!

Hi Pam!

5:45 pm

kangabrat

Speaking of feeling silly ... any clues on co 5,12 (not the one that rhymes with feeling achy)?

5:45 pm

Mom

sounds like what you wear when it is cold but spelled differently

5:46 pm

Mom

pural of the co4/5

5:46 pm

kangabrat

Thx mom, have that one, but not the one after that.

5:47 pm

Mom

Oh Kangabrat, I'm sorry.

5:47 pm

Mom

I don't have any others

5:47 pm

kangabrat

dang

5:47 pm

relarion

There is one that's like the feeling-achy but with different 3rd letter. That one?

5:48 pm

pam

change the middle consonant--the C*** dazur

5:48 pm

pam

then plural

5:48 pm

pam

d"azur

5:48 pm

kangabrat

sorry, got to go to the kids ... back with thinking hat on in a minute

5:50 pm

Mom

I am lost Relarion and Pam. Not getting the clues

5:51 pm

relarion

Which, Mom? We can re-clue

5:51 pm

pam

rhymes with the to 4/4 that is a sac

5:51 pm

pam

then, plural

5:51 pm

kangabrat

I got it! Thanks Relarion and Pam. (There are two that are like the feeling achy with a different 3rd letter.)

5:52 pm

Mom

Kangabrat was looking for the co 5/12 and I didn't have it either.

5:52 pm

relarion

There's another co 5.12 that ends in "a matched ***"

5:52 pm

pam

yw

5:52 pm

Mom

Pam, that one I have but Kangabrat said there is one after that. That is the one I don't have

5:54 pm

relarion

Or, old-time undergarment, once made of whalebone, take out the "r."

5:54 pm

kangabrat

good clue!

5:54 pm

pam

i always double the consonant and go for the 6, forgetting the 5...

5:54 pm

relarion

thx ;)

5:54 pm

Mom

I didn't have that co Relarion

5:55 pm

Mom

I think it is the achy feeling one I don't have

5:57 pm

kangabrat

Lies between c**** (rhymes with achy feeling) and c**** (rhymes with bags). Just the middle consonant changing.

5:58 pm

Mom

I guess I have it then

5:58 pm

relarion

Mom, for achy-feeling one you can also pluralize the middle of an apple, the co** (which is co 4.5)

5:58 pm

kangabrat

sorry to confuse everything!

5:58 pm

diem

I have two co/5s both are plurals 1 is drills i pens

5:59 pm

Mom

Thank you so much Relarion, Pam and Kangabrat. I have them now. Thanks to for the patience

6:00 pm

relarion

It's tricky sometimes, Mom! When you've been startring at the grid for too long...

6:00 pm

Mom

You didn't kangabrat. I am just a bit slow on the uptake this evening

6:00 pm

pam

isn't that the truth, relarion!!!

6:00 pm

kangabrat

Getting desperate, only 5 to go!

6:01 pm

relarion

That should have been "staring." Haven't broken open the mini-tequila yet either...

6:01 pm

Mom

I have been starring at it far too long

6:03 pm

Mom

Relarion, when you do open the mini-tequila have a swig for me. :)

hurshy

i've been watching and just popped up here right before it happened i guess

9:13 pm

smooth_pappa

man! I f the packers can shut out the bears that would be Poetiv justice! The bears shut out GB at lambeau the 1st game of the saeson, and the pack returns the favor the last game of the season in chicago... that would be great!

9:14 pm

hurshy

yeah - too bad it can't change the playoffs though

9:14 pm

smooth_pappa

yeah I know

9:14 pm

smooth_pappa

but any game between GB and CHI is a good game

9:14 pm

smooth_pappa

except or that shut out in sept.

9:14 pm

hurshy

as long as GB wins :)

and that should be 70-300

10:13 pm

lbdawger

oooh weddings...they can be awful to do! the guy that did my son's wedding was more interested in hitting on the bride's maids than taking good pics. We got better ones from the spectators and the cheapo cameras left on the tables at the reception.

10:13 pm

smooth_pappa

HA!

10:14 pm
