HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY TO ALL MY AMERICAN BABBLE BUDS

my favorite rude awakening was when a stray cat came into the room where my husband, myself, and our two cats were sleeping

12:07 am

GreyWoulf

ADHD -- I have never had a male cat -- my girls do the same thing -- we actually had to throw out my daughter's Winnie the Pooh sofa because of the cats

12:07 am

harpjane

literally fur flying

12:07 am

ADHDWordLover

so many of us couldn't get that grid done . it just held a finger on a letter and filled the chat so much that we had to leave w/out finishing... couldn't give/get clues

12:07 am

GreyWoulf

Hi Nat! it has been quite some time, eh?

12:07 am

NatLT

been busy, got a new job and don't do the late nights much anymore

12:08 am

ADHDWordLover

12:08 am

ADHDWordLover

on a more refreshing note... this is the perfect size grid, no?

12:08 am

GreyWoulf

12:18 am

ADHDWordLover

therre's a girl on Letterman that can put her fist in her mouth

12:19 am

ADHDWordLover

now THAT's something that could come in handy

12:19 am

ADHDWordLover

Letterman just said: "Is that good news or bad news for your boyfriend?" gimme a break

12:20 am

GreyWoulf

Well, what else could you say?

12:20 am

ADHDWordLover

12:22 am

cybernan

7's called: do, ri, su, to, tr

12:22 am

NonnieLight

I think a person who goes on national tv with that as a talent is sort of setting themselves up for whatever letterman has to say.

12:22 am

ADHDWordLover

i like letterman... funny guy

12:23 am

GreyWoulf

that matches what I have, cnan

12:23 am

NonnieLight

12:23 am

ADHDWordLover

12:24 am

ADHDWordLover

VolleymomDee

I was thinking the same thing AD

12:26 am

2:39 am

Andree

my line is on my back verandah under cover, its great, gave drier to my daughter afer i moved here

2:40 am

kangabrat

would love to give away the drier. but i just try to use it as little as possible.

2:43 am

Andree

after i ran away from home i spent 18months in an apartment, no line, just a drier, i so hated it

2:43 am

kangabrat

when did you run away from home? i often think of it...

2:43 am

eeerik

good evening boggle

2:44 am

Andree

nearly 4 years ago, was married 38 years, big decision

2:44 am

kangabrat

will stop being facetious... a very big decision and congratulations on being brave enough1

2:46 am

kangabrat

i only think about running away when the kids are even louder than usual.

2:47 am

Andree

probably the best decision i ever made, although i would not recommend it to the faint hearted

2:48 am

kangabrat

sounds a lot like committing to jumping from a plane to me. terrifying but liberating.

2:49 am

Andree

mine are grown up with ids of their own and now complaint their kids are loud, seves them right, you will get the last laugh

2:49 am

Andree

kids even

2:49 am

2:49 am

2:50 am

Andree

it is quite funny watching my kids complaining of the same things i did

2:51 am

kangabrat

i know my kids are complaining about the same things too. it's just me they complain about! they call me the meanest mother on the planet (with affection of course)

2:51 am

Iain

nice sprite!

3:36 am

sprite

my husband will be away for almost 2 weeks around easter this year. I am planning on watching Ghostbusters with my kids then :)

3:37 am

FranMag

it's a fun movie, a little silly, but good for family viewing

3:37 am

sprite

it is silly, but the dialogues are so great

3:37 am

FranMag

at least i remember it to be, it's been a while since i watched it.

3:41 am

sprite

that scene where they must convince the mayor of the crisis, and one of them starts with "Mr Dickless here..." and then goes on explaining that the threath is real and not faked as that gentleman thinks... and then after all the explaining the mayor asks: "Is this true?"
And another ghostbuster answers: "Yes. This man has no dick." The timing is SO perfect.

3:42 am

FranMag

i'm so bad at remembering dialogue, but that is very funny

3:43 am

FranMag

i would have to watch it several more times to actually quote from it.

3:44 am

FranMag

i'm amazed when people can remember details like that

3:44 am

sprite

or when they totally demolish a dining room while chasing a ghost, and Bill tries to do the trick with pulling away the tablecloth from under the plates and all. Which of course ends in an utter mess, but he radiantly says: "The flowers are still standing!"

3:45 am

sprite

It is terrible, I could quote half this movie. Like I can quote almost the whole "Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy" as well. I am a sucker for witty dialogues and wordplay.

3:45 am

FranMag

now i want to watch it again!

3:48 am

sprite

what's so funny, I play GuildWars and there are lots of quotes in the game of many movies. I don't recognise most of them, but from this movie I do :)
As they explain to the mayor that the end of the world is coming... "Human sacrifice, cats and dogs living together... mass hysteria!!"

3:48 am

kangabrat

6:47 am

Unthaw = refreeze, LOL

8:44 am

EspritdJean

Judge?

8:44 am

Enomis65

well I am going to start the day now, bye everyone!

8:44 am

hurshy

well i applied for 2 diff things. one is clerical. the other would involve family court. you would find out things about people's income and living situations and stuff and make recommendations about visitation rights and that sort of thing

8:45 am

hurshy

those were the 2 jobs they had available. most of the jobs are only available to people who already work there. so if i could get in, there is a lot of opportunity to move around.

8:46 am

o-o

the factfinders and recommenders play a big role in domestics

8:46 am

o-o

you likely would have to testify

8:46 am

hurshy

yes

8:46 am

hurshy

you have to report your findings

8:47 am

hurshy

it pays pretty well, but that's a lot of pressure.

8:47 am

hurshy

you see the trouble is i really have no idea what i want to do. so i'm just applying to various things.

8:48 am

hurshy

there aren't many jobs around here.

8:48 am

o-o

and when parents are fighting for custody, they can be mean

8:48 am

hurshy

hopefully whoever offers me one, it will turn out i like whatever the job is!

8:48 am

hurshy

yes - i saw dr. phil's "anatomy of a divorce"

8:48 am

EspritdJean

Babblerabble

8:49 am

o-o

but, you would be good at it because you are fastidious and persnickety

8:49 am

hurshy

i would? well that is encouraging.

8:49 am

o-o

yes, EspritdJean?

8:49 am

o-o

yes, EspritdJean?

8:49 am

o-o

8:49 am

sorry

8:50 am

EspritdJean

8:50 am

grammaterri1

8:50 am

EspritdJean

familiar with the first part, but not the following affirmations

8:50 am

grammaterri1

hey ya'll, luck of the irish to ya

8:50 am

EspritdJean

8:51 am

hurshy

oh yeah, it's st patty's day, innit?

8:51 am

72 Temple Owl

8:51 am

grammaterri1

8:52 am

grammaterri1

hi temple

8:52 am

abe79

good morning babblers

8:52 am

grammaterri1

hi abe

8:53 am

o-o

the nice thing about the reporting in a custody case is being able to go to bat to get the best for the children. the children too often are used as pawns by the parents

8:53 am

abe79

Hi GrammaT :)

8:53 am

hurshy

hmm, good point.

8:54 am

72 Temple Owl

hi abe!

8:54 am

hurshy

i'm trying not to visualize myself in any one job that i've applied for too much, because i got so excited about this one with a construction company and then it turned out they'd already hired someone.

8:54 am

hurshy

so i'm trying to wait to get interested until i actually get interviews or something.

8:54 am

abe79

Hey Temple. Did you get blasted with snow?

8:55 am

o-o

yes, but you can never lose your sense of wonder and when you have an opportunity to dance, dance!

8:55 am

EspritdJean

lee ann womack

8:55 am

hurshy

i have a sense of wonder - i wonder if ANYONE will hire me! lol

8:55 am

EspritdJean

great song

8:55 am

o-o

yep

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

yes abe. i am trying to figure out how i will get this drivewasy cleared..actually all sleet

8:56 am

o-o

well, I don't think negative chatter qualifies

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

how about you?

8:57 am

hurshy

sorry, sorry.

8:57 am

abe79

Yes! The ice is halfway up my wheel-wells. Wish I had a snow blower

8:57 am

o-o

nah .... just put yourself in a position to succeed ... not too much too quickly

8:58 am

EspritdJean

how about a flame thrower?

8:58 am

hurshy

yes it is rather weathery, isn't it

8:58 am

hurshy

well, that is what i am trying to do (i think)

8:59 am

evanonut

it's an...OWLNATION

8:59 am

abe79

we were going to go to the parade today but it seems like too much effort to dig out the car first

8:59 am

o-o

good for you...... it is so wonderful to see people succeed!!

8:59 am

72 Temple Owl

aw abe - that's tough

9:00 am

hurshy

well, don't get ahead of yourself, i haven't succeeded yet.

9:00 am

72 Temple Owl

hey nut! doyo have a snowblower? snowplow?

9:00 am

o-o

more nc, tsk tsk tsk

9:00 am

evanonut

nope, but i have a forecast above freezing

9:00 am

abe79

at least babble is an indoor activity :)

9:00 am

hurshy

that's not negative, it's just a fact

9:01 am

72 Temple Owl

i need to be rescued!

9:01 am

GraceM

morning all.

9:01 am

abe79

no need to gloat, evanonut. :)

9:01 am

abe79

Hi Grace

9:01 am

EspritdJean

I can't see the A word, do I need a fish?

9:01 am

o-o

okay, kicks soapbox to the corner

9:01 am

GraceM

I just shoveled VERY heavy snow!

9:01 am

evanonut

fraid i'm not your girl then owl...my car is parked at the neighbors cause i couldn't get up the drive.

9:01 am

hurshy

i think my childhood just did not prepare me for adulthood. they told me what to do, and i did it. and it came very easily. and then when college was over, and they were like, do what you want, i was like, but i have no idea what i want!

9:02 am

72 Temple Owl

how far is your neighbor? thought you lived in the boonies

9:03 am

hurshy

and now i've spent 5 years out of the working world, basically, and have to get into it, figure out what i enjoy, and learn to cope with actually having to struggle to get something, all at the same time!

9:03 am

evanonut

far enough to call my husband and his 4x4

9:03 am

hurshy

can you get corollas with four wheel drive?

9:04 am

evanonut

hurshy, are you saying you don't know what you enjoy?

9:04 am

abe79

LOL Hurshy. my corolla looks very sad today in all t he snow

9:04 am

evanonut

doubtful hursh, but you can get a vibe with all wheel

9:05 am

72 Temple Owl

or a subaru

9:05 am

evanonut

but vibes are cooler, and hurshy wants to be cool.

9:05 am

hurshy

yes nut. i mean, other than word games and playing with cats and things that people don't pay you for...

9:06 am

evanonut

why not find a job working with animals?\

9:06 am

GraceM

If only one could get paid for teaching cats to read.

9:06 am

72 Temple Owl

cost less i'll bet, too

9:06 am

o-o

finding what you like will be an adventure.

9:06 am

o-o

finding what you like will be an adventure.

9:06 am

abe79

evanonut- do you have a vibe? I rented one last summer and i found it enjoyable to drive

9:06 am

72 Temple Owl

grace: have you discovered that they can?

9:06 am

hurshy

lol grace

9:07 am

72 Temple Owl

hursh, could you be an editor?

9:07 am

o-o

I want to give you a link, hurshy...just a sec please

9:07 am

GraceM

will you pay me to find out?

9:07 am

evanonut

no abe, but it's on my consideration list, along with the caliber.

9:07 am

72 Temple Owl

i idrove a rental caliber and i loved it. a little gas miser, too

9:07 am

Vicuna

Just teach 'em to monkey-type and you could make a fortune from babble-players. At least, you could if Babble-players HAD fortunes.

9:07 am

hurshy

i could, TO... there are lots of things i COULD do. but that's the trouble, i don't like any one thing enough to do it ALL the time. i like to have a variety of things to do.

9:07 am

abe79

the vibe is on my consideration list as well

9:08 am

72 Temple Owl

yes, vi...as if half of us are not in danger of being jobless if hte boss catchies us babbling one more time...LOL

9:08 am

72 Temple Owl

the journeyof a thousand miles, hursh...as youhave seen, nothing is permanent

9:09 am

evanonut

no danger of that here'

9:09 am

o-o

this a link to an online career manual ... many do not care to spend the time to go through the process. I found it to be very good:

http://www.cdm.uwaterloo.ca/ind
ex.asp

9:09 am

hurshy

thank you brabs, i'll check it out

9:11 am

mom23

wish you luck in your job quest, hurshy. i just finished up 2nd week of being retired. not a bad gig!

9:11 am

NonnieLight

good morning all

9:11 am

72 Temple Owl

hurdhy: do SOMETHING. it's much easier to wrok from a position of strength. then you begin to see tasks you do and don't like, and it is eaasier. i am a liberal arts person who found by chance she has a head for busiess and data. tha took many jobs and many years

9:12 am

NonnieLight

congrats on your retirement, mom!

9:12 am

Vicuna

Well, but think. If your cat did all the monkey-typing for you, and you had only to type in the REAL words, you'd be that much more productive at work, and your boss would love yoU!

9:12 am

mom23

tks, nonnie!

9:12 am

abe79

Hi Nonnie

9:13 am

hurshy

yep, i'm just trying to get some sort of job right now, TO, and then go from there :)

9:13 am

Merk

A problem: I have 7 O words typed in. 1 for the left column O and six for the fourth column. It shows on my Word List. It shows me as missing 2 "O" words in the fourth column. I reloaded the page. Nothing helps. Any ideas?

9:13 am

Vicuna

Hursh, I didn't get the job I wanted out of college, and took something else as a stop-gap, and the something else turned out to be the vocational love of my life. Job's are not permanent, you can always switch if it turns out to be a bad fit.

9:13 am

72 Temple Owl

refresh

9:14 am

72 Temple Owl

especially now, vi....there is not the stigma that used to be attached to job hopping, it's expected that people will move on

9:14 am

Merk

FIREWORKS!

9:15 am

hurshy

yep. i just hope it doesn't hurt me that i spent 5 years only working part time.

9:15 am

NonnieLight

congrats merk!

9:15 am

o-o

congrats, Merk

9:15 am

Vicuna

Yes, my elderly father-in-law gets terribly worried when his sons are constantly switching jobs, but they're all doing just fine!

abe79

Yay Merk! Hi O'Charm! Same to you

9:16 am

Vicuna

Well, hursh, even if it hurts you in this round, once you land SOMETHING you'll have that building up your resume, and the next time you could get something that eluded you this time around.

9:16 am

Charm

Hey, grammaterri, TO, Nonnie, Abe!!

9:17 am

abe79

lol mom and gramma t

9:18 am

Vicuna

Hello, grammat!

9:18 am

evanonut

yeah hursh, and in ten years, if they don't hire you, you can claim age discrimination

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

not that they can ASK - better forget that last comment

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

or that you should tell them

9:18 am

hurshy

i just hope i can land something, lol... there are really so few jobs around here.

9:18 am

Vicuna

There's positive thinking, evanonut! lol

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

you have to be 40 or above to claim that

9:19 am

hurshy

oh, i don't mind being candid about things, TO. as you probably know. :)

9:19 am

vpchat

I can't seem to monkey the ae7 - I know it starts with the ae4 - some help with the ending?

9:19 am

72 Temple Owl

candid is diffferent than buseiness like and bringing up the personal at that stage is not business like

9:19 am

evanonut

i don't mind candy either hurshy, i like candy

9:20 am

72 Temple Owl

it's a law they can't ask so don't tell

9:20 am

Vicuna

But "Candide" was never my favorite.

9:20 am

grammaterri1

NonnieLight

good morning judi!

9:27 am

momof3boys

does anyone know the story about the border patrol agents in jail in texas??? ramon and compean?

9:27 am

72 Temple Owl

sometimes, nut - it's the unfair part of life. nut, osomeone i work with is a 13 and constantly sick - has not hurt her

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

judi - when did you sneak in

9:28 am

evanonut

you mean gs?

9:28 am

NonnieLight

no momof3--I have not

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

yes maam - sometimes she works from home if she is well enough. she is asthmastic

9:28 am

Judi

9:26 a.m., TO. But, I've been lurking for about 1/2 hour.

9:29 am

Mom

I have not heard about it, Momof3

9:29 am

72 Temple Owl

she is whip smart

9:29 am

evanonut

yes well, i image the more important you are the easier it is to make a case. but i image that since they're paying 5,000 a year to educate me, they'll reconsider.

9:30 am

momof3boys

nonnie..it is appalling...we have two agents, in jail for shooting a drug dealer trying to cross our border, illegally, for the 2nd time...and the agents are in jail..and the dealer got granted immunity by our govt to testify against them...and he is suing us for $5 mil..and we offered him means to become a citizen!!!

9:30 am

hurshy

i knew a prof who felt she did not get tenure because she'd had breast cancer and thus didn't publish as much... :(

9:30 am

72 Temple Owl

if they have any sense they will. that's alot are they college credit courses?

9:30 am

evanonut

apparently i can't type imagine

9:30 am

evanonut

yes owl

9:30 am

Mom

wow, mom of 3

9:31 am

momof3boys

when you get a chance..go to www.youtube.com, go under glenn beck, 2/7/07 and 2/8/07.. they are only a few minutes long....you will be sickened.

9:31 am

Mom

thanks mom of 3

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

well good for you! and they are stupid not to see it that wasy. human resources must be managed just like other resources. if not take them for allit's worth till you are marketable enough to go elsewhere.

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

then thumb your nose at them

9:32 am

evanonut

could owl, then i'd have to pay them back

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

private companies do what you do i worked for a private security/alarm firm that did that also

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

did you sign anything?

9:33 am

NonnieLight

ty momof3--I'll check that out. Why do you think our gov. is trying to sell them out?

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

if so it should have a limit like you can't leave for X years without repayment

9:34 am

momof3boys

because we have gutless politicians ... who can't stand up without fear of losing votes..and i am sure money and conspirancy are involved...greed is killing us.

9:34 am

evanonut

yes owl, two years, but it doesn't say per course, per year...so i imagine most of it would be difficult to act on. don't really plan to leave anyway, plan to torture them.

9:34 am

anyas_wrath

Gutren MOrgen, Babblers, I am back for my last 67 words. They want me to relog in.

I walk the pup there sometimes :)

12:02 pm

ConXshun

and much of it looks like a nicer version of the Old Forest

12:05 pm

ConXshun

Old Forest? where's that? I know the New Forest... I love woods and hills and old trees. That's where I'd love to live - all of that and a babbling brook next to the house... ****sigh****

12:05 pm

Judi

Back again. A well-balanced breakfast does not seem to be helping me find many words. Down to 53

12:05 pm

Atalante

its a Tolkien thing, sorry! oh yes, babbling brooks are essential

12:05 pm

featherbee

got 5 words by adding RE to my list! lol

12:06 pm

ConXshun

LOL! oh ok! as in NZ :))) Also a place I'd love to visit. And babbling brooks sound like home to me. I grew up in Lincolnshire (S. Humberside) where there was one next to the house - it's now programmed in as sounding like home...

12:07 pm

Atalante

I grew up with one too ...

12:07 pm

ConXshun

good tip feather!

12:07 pm

Judi

Feel priviliged to have a babbling brook next to my house. Even has a little bridge across. All the tykes in the neighborhood come to splash about and catch minnows.

12:08 pm

Atalante

the Cotswolds, over in Gloucestershire. well, more there than anywhere else

12:08 pm

Atalante

12:10 pm

Judi

St. Patrick's Day, Vicuna. Waiting for them to be driven out.

12:10 pm

St Patrick had many virtues, but kindness to snakes was not among them.

I've helped lots of friends move. Does that count as a a transferable skill? or just as a transferring skill?

12:32 pm

Vicuna

Oh yes, I forgot you have a grove. Still, do they express their hunger by tapping on your windows, or grabbing you as you walk by?

12:33 pm

though I may go early, I seem to have hit a wall.

3:32 pm

helenkeller

didn't someone just post a soda bread recipe here (or somewhere) & said it takes a week to 'ferment' or something like that, or am i confusing that with stollen?

3:33 pm

Uneaixoise

cubschick, what an adorable picture!!

3:33 pm

momof3boys

i never made soda bread helen..sorry

3:33 pm

stidmama

the stollen tastes best after a week, for sure, but soda bread wouldn't!

3:33 pm

helenkeller

cubsc - no one here is irish - we are O' ******skis today :))

3:33 pm

momof3boys

ok..bbl...i have company..don't want to be rude.

3:33 pm

stidmama

3:33 pm

NonnieLight

pe 5/12 - is that the one that rhymes with a line of poetry?

3:33 pm

Mom

bye momof3

3:34 pm

helenkeller

i am definitely not making any soda bread now - that was just a joke, come on people, i'm only human (on my good days)

3:34 pm

prismmgc2

3:34 pm

momof3boys

see you before the flip....

3:34 pm

No clue Nonnie

3:34 pm

Mom

oh geez, I'm so sorry

3:35 pm

Mom

I could have at least given you a real word. :(

3:35 pm

stidmama

didn't work anyway... LOL

3:35 pm

LeslieAnn

i made some soda bread the other day, hk, it did take a while but not a week - for a first time maker, i agree not a good idea right now

3:35 pm

helenkeller

pris - actually - i still have to google corned beef & cabbage to know what to do with the cabbage - any hints? do i cut it up into wedges before i boil it? do i boil it in the same pot as the corned beef - in the icky corned beef water?

3:35 pm

Anniebrook

Mom, put an ess in front of the word in the chat

3:35 pm

helenkeller

tx - LA - off the hook on the soda bread now! whew!

3:36 pm

prismmgc2

I usually take the cornde beef out & then put the cabbage in. it only takes mins for it to boil

3:36 pm

helenkeller

bye momof3

3:36 pm

stidmama

no no helen, cabbage in its own pot! cut it in quarters or eights before you put it in the water, core out of course!

3:36 pm

helenkeller

pris - in that same water? do you cut it up first?

3:36 pm

stidmama

otherwise the corned beef tastes cabbage-y... (personal experience, yes)

3:36 pm

prismmgc2

I cut it in wedges. I do it in the same pot so it gets the good taste going thru it

3:36 pm

Mom

Thanks Annie, off to fix the word

3:36 pm

Anniebrook

hk, the cabbage is usually wedged and cooked in the icky water....you could add a tablespoon of sugar about 1 hour before everything is done

3:37 pm

helenkeller

crap - now dissention between stid & pris - what's a non-irish girl to do???

3:37 pm

Mom

flip a coin, helen

3:37 pm

prismmgc2

lol... well Helen... You want to make sure you have the core of the cabbage left on the wedges. that way it won't fall apart

3:37 pm

helenkeller

rut-roh - this may be as bad as arguing religion or politics here

3:38 pm

helenkeller

ah pris - i wouldn't have thought of that - thanks!

3:38 pm

prismmgc2

if you take the beef out before putting the cabbage in it, the beef won't have that cabbage taste

3:38 pm

helenkeller

annie - do i take the corned beef out before i add the sugar?

3:38 pm

Haz1558

Good afternoon/evening all.

3:38 pm

CubsChick

i've never had corned beef and cabbage so i certainly can't help.

3:38 pm

mo

hi everyone ... I am here to get my last 2 words and assist with clues (if I can!!!)

3:38 pm

LeslieAnn

hey haz

3:38 pm

Mom

Annie, I don't have two s's together

3:38 pm

Anniebrook

no, just add it with the cabbage

3:38 pm

LeslieAnn

hello mo

3:38 pm

Mom

Hi Haz

3:38 pm

Mom

Hi Mo

3:39 pm

Haz1558

Can I just say that it would probably shock most people living in Ireland to think that you're serving corned beef and cabbage as a festive St Patrick's meal!

3:39 pm

prismmgc2

mo! Help me with the 1st pe 5 plz

3:39 pm

helenkeller

okay - let me get this straight - now - i cook the corned beef til it's done, then put in the cabbage & a tablespoon of sugar - yes?

3:39 pm

stidmama

I like pris' idea of doing the cabbage in the water AFTER the beef comes out...

3:39 pm

LeslieAnn

haz, i think hk has bigger problems than that now ;)

3:39 pm

prismmgc2

I like the cabbage to still be a little crisp so I don't boil it for hours with the corned beef

3:39 pm

stidmama

well Haz, we've been so long removed that for us it IS a treat! what about you? what do you serve today?

3:39 pm

helenkeller

on the bright side, being polish, i'm a whiz with the potatoes

3:39 pm

Anniebrook

Mom, just add one ess to the U word you had typed before, I meant put it in front

3:40 pm

mo

pris ... pe + the back of minus last letter.

3:40 pm

prismmgc2

mo... <scratching head> huh??

3:40 pm

helenkeller

haz - WHAT ???? now you tell me - what's the deal with that?

3:40 pm

Haz1558

Well, to be honest, there isn't anything special associated with St Patrick's day food here! At least, not in this house.

3:41 pm

Anniebrook

mom, did you have it?

3:41 pm

helenkeller

haz - um, & you're irish are you?

3:41 pm

stidmama

actually, we can't eat beef because of my allergies, so today it is clam stew... :-(

3:41 pm

Haz1558

helen - the first time I heard about the American custom of serving corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick's day, I nearly had a fit. We had American visitors who told us and I could hardly credit it.

3:42 pm

Mom

Annie, (face reddened with embarrassment), I have the word for dinner. I am confused on the "ess" part.

3:42 pm

stidmama

someone last night said there was an ox6? is this true?

3:42 pm

Anniebrook

my english has flown away...Mom, do you have it?

3:42 pm

prismmgc2

yes.. there's an ox 5/6 combo

3:42 pm

Haz1558

Well, good political question there, helen. I'm British, living in Northern Ireland, so a bit of both. Have a look at my icon. I'm probably closer to where St Patrick worked than anyone else here.....

3:42 pm

mo

pris ... pe + not pretend, minus last letter.

3:43 pm

Mom

I have a su word for dinner. I am not getting the ess

3:43 pm

stidmama

hm. okay, so thinking...

3:43 pm

prismmgc2

ty mo... that one I got

3:43 pm

helenkeller

geee - i wish we had this conversation a few days ago & i would have used that irish purity excuse - lenny wanted to order pizzas - *hk regrets inherent celebratory nature*

3:43 pm

NonnieLight

ah, ty mo

3:43 pm

LeslieAnn

i didn't! thanks mo

3:43 pm

mo

yw Nonnie.

3:43 pm

LeslieAnn

well, i think the folks will still eat it, hk!!

3:43 pm

mo

glad to help.

3:44 pm

Haz1558

If I wanted to serve a typical Irish menu, it would be something like local smoked salmon, lamb with seasonal vegetables and a Bailey's cheesecake.

3:44 pm

prismmgc2

We've been invited to 3 parties starting at 4 this afternoon (I'm west coast time). Last one is a costume contest

3:44 pm

Anniebrook

Mom, I'm sorry, i meant put the S in front of the up** word you typed in the grid>>>like su***man

3:44 pm

helenkeller

haz - now, excuse my ignorance, but i thought northern ireland was where the brits don't live - or are you in the minority?

3:44 pm

prismmgc2

hubby tie-dyed a kilt

3:44 pm

stidmama

I have ancestors from County Down... those are the ones I can pinpoint. the others were from the south, last name "Murphy" -- no chance ever finding them!

3:45 pm

Mom

Annie, I am so brain fried, I can't even spell the word for dinner properly. I meant su***man. THank you for your help. I didn't mean to be so much trouble

3:45 pm

stidmama

hi chatty cathy!

3:45 pm

Haz1558

Quick history lesson, helen - between 1701 and 1922 Ireland was governed by Britain. In 1922, the 26 counties of the south became self-governing (Eire), 6 counties of Ulster became Northern Ireland and remained British.

3:45 pm

Cathyar

lol...no one's called me that in YEARS!!!!!!!!

3:45 pm

prismmgc2

HK.. there's an irish casino here. they take regular cheese cake & pour irish cream over it

3:45 pm

stidmama

Mom. thanks for that last comment, I was so at a loss!

3:46 pm

Mom

lol, Stid, you are welcome. I am so fried.

3:46 pm

helenkeller

i read 'trinity' by leon uris ages ago & that made me aware of the catholic/protestant problem - specifics, i forget, sorry

3:46 pm

Cathyar

3:46 pm

Cathyar

just thought I'd pop in

3:46 pm

Anniebrook

3:47 pm

Haz1558

Not a problem, helen - the divisions in Ireland have been going on for a long time, but things seem to be getting better.

3:47 pm

Mom

3:53 pm

4:06 pm

candy

I live at the foot of it and haven't climbed it for years but a man was horrified when I told him that this morning.

4:06 pm

lbdawger

LA! yup we are on the same track!

4:06 pm

CubsChick

must be an american thing. they are little chocolate sandwich cookies with frosting in between. terrible for you, but strangely delicious.

4:06 pm

Haz1558

Candy, were you here for the discussion about the traditional St Patrick's Day menu in America (corned beef and cabbage)

4:06 pm

LeslieAnn

i'm sure they're just called something else there: http://www.flatrock.org.nz/topics/educ

No Haz I must have missed that

4:07 pm

lbdawger

corned beef, cabbage, red taters, and green beer

So, reassure me, would you ever serve corned beef and cabbage as a festive meal?

4:07 pm

CubsChick ... so a kind of biscuit then? sounds great.

4:08 pm

candy

I can't even lift a tin of corned beef without my stomach heaving!

4:08 pm

4:09 pm

lbdawger

Candy, i never liked the stuff before. i've since learned how to cook it so it is palitable.

4:09 pm

candy

It would have to be a lot different before I could eat it

4:09 pm

mo

CubsC ... thanks i will look at that.

4:09 pm

lbdawger

candy, it's a brined brisket

4:09 pm

Atalante

theirs is proper beef :P

4:10 pm

stidmama

the potatoes suck the salt out of the meat... and the corned beef here often has a sugar glaze which is quite nice.

4:10 pm

lbdawger

what do use over across the pond?

4:10 pm

stidmama

never knew corned beef might be canned!

4:11 pm

Haz1558

Hello sherb!

4:11 pm

stidmama

Atalante, what is English corned beef like?

4:11 pm

lbdawger

hi sherb. stid, maybe what they use is potted meat. which is definitely different depending on region

4:11 pm

stidmama

besides the obvious "disgusting" answer...

4:11 pm

sherb

...did anyone see Catherine Tate meet Tony Blair?

4:11 pm

candy

That sounds a bit better. My granny always cooked coddle on St Paddy's day. It is bacon, cabbage and potatoes layered and baked in the oven. It was alright

4:12 pm

stidmama

I think potted meat is "spam"?

4:12 pm

Atalante

4:13 pm

CubsChick

wait a second. your corned beef is the same as our spam??

4:13 pm

Haz1558

Yes, I would saute onion and bacon cubes, and cook the cabbage with that, but cooked lightly, not boiled to mush...

4:13 pm

stidmama

here are the fellows home. back in a couple. thanks inge, I got your email! :-)

4:13 pm

Atalante

spam is even worse

4:13 pm

lbdawger

urgh, that looks more like spam to me.

4:13 pm

Haz1558

No, spam is a ham 'replacement'.

4:13 pm

candy

I would also add carrots and onions

4:13 pm

lbdawger

Hi Inge

In Korea, American spam is considered a delicacy...sells for big bucks

4:15 pm

gross. Husband and I work with Middle School kids, and we make them eat spam for games, as a cruel joke. We would never eat it seriously. I can't even handle the smell.

4:16 pm

lbdawger

i need to go put the cabbage and taters on so they will be done with the corned beef. bbl

4:16 pm

Haz1558

Don't start boiling cabbage at the same time as potatoes! It's death to flavour!

4:17 pm

inge

DrWed, so are dogs

4:18 pm

lbdawger

only half the cabbage gets done to death. other half likes soggy veggies...me, i'll have mine barely blanched.

5:12 pm

momof3boys

5:12 pm

Haz1558

Well, there's an unequal pairing. Ireland is not great at cricket....

5:12 pm

Oh, Hursh, I watched thatearlier today---LOVED it and did not see it when it first aired

5:14 pm

Scrabbler

There are games at the HSBC Arena here in Buffalo--14,00 people came into town Thurs and yest. I saw lots of busy-ness around the arena a few hrs ago when I made rounds at the children's hospital

5:14 pm

Haz1558

Well, that's amazing. Of course, they did once beat the West Indies - back in the 1960's or something.

5:14 pm

Minveryork

Hi Atalante! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

5:15 pm

5:16 pm

5:16 pm

If Ireland wins, is that huge? I am cricket ignorant

5:16 pm

GOod, scrabbler, the area needs it

5:16 pm

5:17 pm

pam

6:59 pm

Scrabbler

I have Rold Gold pretzels too--I like to snack on the big sourdough ones, for a salt fix

7:00 pm

Scarlet

The salt-free Rolds make for incredible, chocolate-dipped pretzels...white or dark... a daughter favorite.

7:00 pm

Mom

I have never had a chocolate covered pretzel

7:01 pm

Scarlet

They are huge in the tri-state area of NY, PA and NJ... I don't really like them much, but the kids and grandchildren go nutzo!

Scarlet

G'night, Mom.

7:34 pm

featherbee

what's that scrabbler?

7:35 pm

Scrabbler

This is about my 6th or 7th time talking parents through this--it saves a ER visit and co-pay.

7:35 pm

Scrabbler

The technical term is subluxation of the radial head---a dislocation that is common in little kids when their arm gets yanked

7:36 pm

featherbee

owie!

7:36 pm

Scarlet

Is that common, S? Or, does it mean an overemotional parent sometimes?

7:37 pm

featherbee

i know i've been holding daniel's hand at times, and he's decided to go another way that the way we're going, i could see how it could happen not in anger

7:37 pm

featherbee

than* the way we're going

7:37 pm

Scarlet

That makes perfect sense, feather.

7:38 pm

Scrabbler

It is not uncommon, in kids under about 4 yrs--when walking pr playing with a parent, when the hand is held, and then the kid trips, there is traction on the arm and the radial head slips out

7:38 pm

Scarlet

Again, perfect sense. Thank you both.

7:38 pm

featherbee

*shudder*

7:40 pm

Scrabbler

Uno!

7:40 pm

7:41 pm

7:41 pm

featherbee

lol, yay that you're too late, or yay i finished?

7:41 pm

Scarlet

Those who live in Ireland do not eat corned beef, as to the fact that their corned beef is more like our spam

8:55 pm

li5/10 is the normal plural for that.

11:03 pm

Jacula

Too much defragging kills computer.

11:03 pm

Cathyar

really???? i didn't know that!

11:03 pm

Jacula

Cathyar = 98 though??? Jeeze! No wonder!

11:03 pm

sewwell

Thanks alot, Jacula

11:04 pm

Cathyar

yeah...got it when my son was still in diapers and he's almost 10

11:04 pm

Jacula

y/w sewell.

11:04 pm

Cathyar

tks for the advice re defrag...scan disc is ok though?

11:04 pm

Jacula

Cath - yes. Defragging kills the hard drive's right wrist in the end, I believe.

11:05 pm

Cathyar

guess i'm kinda lucky then to be hangin in as long as we HAVE been!

11:05 pm

Cathyar

*prays to make it last till we can get a new puter*

11:05 pm

Jacula

Scan is fine, as is disk cleanup and spybot, virus scan etc. But the defrag does shorten the hard drive's life.

11:05 pm

Cathyar

wow...go figure...i used to always be told to defrag at least once week!!!!!!!!

11:06 pm

Cathyar

i always thought defrags helped keep the files "in order"

11:06 pm

Jacula

Me, too, Cath. But maybe it was the manufacturers of the hard drives that perpetuated that myth?

11:07 pm

Jacula

Defrag once per month or 3 months. Do all the rest daily or weekly.

11:07 pm

Cathyar

yeah...well...i'm glad to know it now though...may give me a few more weeks of life on mine!

11:08 pm

Cathyar

jacs...i'm forever indebted to u for that advice! ;)

11:08 pm

NonnieLight

sewwell

Clue for pe6,21?

11:09 pm

Cathyar

11:09 pm

Jacula

Cath - I'm right as far as I know. Son (aka computer expert) is asleep for once at present and BJ, our resident Babble computer expert is also away travelling through work.

11:10 pm

Cathyar

hmmm...i think the pe6 is spanish maybe.... pe + se4/4

11:10 pm

Jacula

11:11 pm

Cathyar

i often wonder if babblin causes me troubles too :( i have no virus scan or even spyware protection

11:11 pm

Jacula

pe6/21 = Spanish currency.

11:11 pm

Cathyar

11:12 pm

Jacula

Cath - if you don't mind paying to be kept virsus free, get NOD32.

11:13 pm

sewwell

oh, my, I still can't get pe6,21 -- partly because I couldn't get the last two "se's". Sorry

11:13 pm

Cathyar

11:13 pm

Jacula

Ment virus free.

11:13 pm

11:33 pm

NonnieLight

11:35 pm

FranMag

sewwell, put in a chair again

11:35 pm

NonnieLight

put your bottom back in the chair, sewell

11:36 pm

Jacula

I was going to go on to say that I am kind of glad I have to be 'interviewed' by the 'females' commitee'. The place is in the worst decorative order and needs building maintenance. Evidence of leaks from ceiling all around, you can smell the underleaks also. So, what's going on here? Dunno yet! Should we not work out what skills we and our other halves have and put on some events to pay for the materials so that we can revamp the place ourselves?

11:36 pm

Jacula

Should I say that??? First time out?

11:37 pm

FranMag

i think you should jac

11:37 pm

Jacula

Fran - I think I will!

11:38 pm

FranMag

in a way that doesn't offend the current committee somehow

11:38 pm

FranMag

although that may be hard since the place is in such a mess now, they let it get that way.

11:39 pm

NonnieLight

What place are you speaking of, jac...if you don't mind me asking.

11:40 pm

sewwell

ty, I finally got it.

11:40 pm

Jacula

No, Fran, how could it... I know many of the past male members fought wars and their females did too (though only JUST and I do mean JUST got credit for that - 2002 - female branch approved)

11:40 pm

FranMag

sounds like they need a go-getter like you to help them out jac!

11:40 pm

NonnieLight

wtg sewwell, congrats!

11:40 pm

FranMag

cool sewwell

11:41 pm

Jacula

Nonnie - I am speaking of any Royal British Legion Club in UK. It was originally a club for the armed forces.

11:42 pm

FranMag

sounds like our USO clubs here in the US.

11:42 pm

NonnieLight

That is what I was thinking, fran. Sounds interesting, Jac.

11:42 pm

Jacula

The Royal British Legion provides financial, social and emotional support to millions who have served and are currently serving in the Armed Forces, and their dependants. Currently, nearly 10.5 million people are eligible for our support and we receive thousands of calls for help every year.

The Legion was founded in 1921 as a voice for the ex-Service community and over 450,000 members continue to ensure that this voice does not go unheard. Although the needs of ex-Service people have changed over the years, we are still there to safeguard their welfare, interests and memory. British service people are in action around the world every day of the year. They know that if they need our support - now or in the future - the Legion is always on active duty for them.

11:43 pm

FranMag

yup, sounds like USO.

11:44 pm

FranMag

or a combination of the USO and the VA.

11:44 pm

Jacula

They didn't led my Dad down at his funeral. The insisted on pal-bearing, the flag over his coffin and their part of the service. I'm forever in their debt for that.

11:46 pm

Jacula

They also asked my Mum and me if we needed financial help. Thanks to Dad's care, neither of us did. That won't stop us helping those who do, though.

11:46 pm

FranMag

if they're like the USO club we had in Guam, not much money goes to maintaining facilities, so a volunteer fund-raising effort would probably be very appreciated Jac.

11:46 pm

FranMag

brb

11:48 pm

Jacula

Fran - I saw that from my latest visit. I guess they just need galavnising into action in some way. When I first realised that I'd have to appear before the women's committee to get membership, I though, 'Oh sh*t!' However, now I've got my bearings, so to speal, I'm quite glad of that.

11:48 pm

cybernan

good evening, all :)

11:49 pm

Jacula

Hi, cyber.

11:49 pm

FranMag

11:49 pm
