I tore a tendon in my ankle at work over a year ago. Had surgery in June; went through PT, back to work finally in Nov, but still lots of pain. Surgery again the end of Jan. The tendon wasn't attached anymore & thye took it out and cut the foot and heel all up to repair it

DRBERNABO

phantom: innocent

12:22 am

Nef

12:26 am

12:26 am

12:36 am

sbaba

kkiln, how are you doing?

12:37 am

kkiln

I guess the addiction is strong..

12:37 am

sewwell

Fiber Art goes at it in the morning and early afternoon, before she starts her day. I'm the opposite.

12:37 am

jillibus

sewwell -- you've finished? Fireworks here already???

12:38 am

Hey, sewwell. This is some addiction.

12:41 am

Douglas

"But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and ******, wanting nothing." (James 1:4, KJV)

12:41 am

kkiln

Nite all...have to run and get ready for work. Have a nice sleep.

12:41 am

sbaba

kkiln, and sewwell, is there something that works better than lickety? I've only had fireworks once.

12:42 am

Ornith

jillibus

12:43 am

Hey Jean, just read your profile. You live in one of my favourite areas. about 17 years ago a group of my friends and I regularly (about 4 or 5 times over a 2 year period) stayed in a B&B farmhouse near Sand. I have some great memories of those trips.

3:22 am

jean1953

3:23 am

sprite

Fran, do you remember the R word you said would be valid one day? There is a C word like it that is!

3:23 am

jean1953

how long ago was it that you used to visit somerset Ishult

3:23 am

FranMag

lol, thanks sprite!

3:24 am

sprite

was finishing the Cs and tried it out of desperation, lol

3:24 am

sprite

in7/32 related to he4/5

3:25 am

sprite

yay, and another in7/32 as well. That's 18.

3:25 am

FranMag

that japanese ornamental box has been in every grid lately

3:25 am

FranMag

(while we're on ins)

3:26 am

sprite

yes, that's a keeper!

3:26 am

lshult

It was a over period of about 2 years, at the end of the 80's . We were there about 4 or 5 times for long weekends. I'm trying desperately to remember the name of the farm that we stayed on (it's a working farm). Even after I moved to Israel, some of my friends stayed in touch with the Family who owned it. The name will eventually come back to me!

3:28 am

jean1953

I expect when you remember the name I could well know of it, due to the job I do Ishult

3:28 am

FranMag

finally figured out your clue for that first in7, it helps to have the right he4/5! :-)

3:28 am

sprite

LOL Fran, that is true!

3:30 am

sprite

I only now realise it is a crooked clue. I mean the person doing it, the he4. And it is related in meaning, not in form. The other one though, is related in form and not in meaning!

3:30 am

FranMag

found the other in7 also, thanks sprite!

3:30 am

FranMag

the clue worked for me so i'm not going to criticize it sprite. :-)

3:31 am

sprite

always seems to work with us, lol

3:32 am

sprite

there is another th7/32. One is a plural, one is a kind of compound.

3:33 am

FranMag

thanks sprite, tried that earlier with an i

3:33 am

sprite

me too!

3:34 am

FranMag

how many points is the 3rd re8 sprite?

3:35 am

sprite

the re8s go 40 - 40 - 45. One ends in something you can camp out in.

3:35 am

FranMag

i have 8/40 and 8/45

3:35 am

FranMag

got it! thanks

3:35 am

sprite

yay!

3:36 am

FranMag

as soon as you said the ending i knew the word, someday i'll be able to find them before getting the clue.

3:37 am

sprite

ok, this is a new one for me. Trying every possible combination sometimes really works, lol.
Hi7/36 : 1. of, pertaining to, or resembling a goat.
2. having a goatish odor.
3. lustful; libidinous.

3:38 am

sprite

only one more 7 to go now.

3:38 am

FranMag

4:12 am

sprite

YAY!

4:12 am

Atalante

definitely. any unicorn phantoms must be allowed as real words!

4:12 am

sprite

that's a good one, Fran. And 'almost' should be defined as "all letters occur"

4:12 am

FranMag

mine is "leap across a ravine"

4:13 am

sprite

yay Fran! And you know it: with two small hops you never get across a ravine :)

4:13 am

Atalante

4:14 am

FranMag

i think "impale evil things" works well for you sprite, that was perfect.

4:15 am

4:16 am

4:16 am

FranMag

Jamaican deputy police commissioner Mark Shields said a full investigation has begun.

He said: "Having met with the pathologist, other medical personnel and investigators, there is now sufficient information to continue a full investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr Woolmer, which we are now treating as suspicious."

Asked if he was saying that Woolmer had been murdered, he replied: "No, we are not saying that."

Morning BabbleRabble

4:35 am

lshult

a man of many talents, BabbleRabble!!

4:36 am

o-o

we all have our talents

4:37 am

Goosey

Still looking for mine!

4:40 am

Haz1558

You'll have talents, Goosey - just ask people nearest to you and they'll identify them for you.

4:40 am

Goosey

Not sure my sons will agree at the moment Haz.lol

4:41 am

Haz1558

ALTHOUGH - when you see people with not a note in their head, telling judges on these talent shows, that all their family and friends think they're wonderful - you've got to wonder....

4:41 am

Goosey

although they do assure me I'm great at moaning

4:42 am

Haz1558

Don't call it moaning, call it constructive criticism.

4:42 am

Goosey

Thanks for the support Haz - good thinking

4:43 am

Haz1558

What ages are your sons?

4:43 am

lshult

I wish I had a talent for wordgames!!

4:43 am

Goosey

18,21, 23

4:44 am

Goosey

Eldest just returned from 6 months in Australia - what a differnce now he's home again. lol

4:44 am

Haz1558

Well, at least you're nearly out of the teenage phase. I'm loving the novelty of hearing my daughters admit sometimes 'You're right' (They're 23 and 20)

4:45 am

Haz1558

Did he have a good time? It seems to be a mecca for the young.

4:45 am

Goosey

He's had two winters out there playing cricket and having a great time - now he has to start working for a living

4:46 am

Haz1558

And that's another novelty - getting a cheque for her keep from my older girl who's now working.

4:46 am

Goosey

Going to buy a suit today for job interviews next week.

4:47 am

Now that I look forward to Haz

ExWren

At least your son came home Goosey, my youngest son has just told me his leaving date for Australia is 1st August. He, his wife, 1year old baby and their dog are going to Brisbane to live

4:55 am

Haz1558

And by the sound of things you're not too happy?

4:55 am

Goosey

Sorry - Wren. I t wouldn't surprise me if mine decides to do that too

4:57 am

ExWren

No, I'm not, but what can I say? It's their life and I can't interfere. My Mother wasn't too happy when I joined the Wrens, and eventually lived in Malta for three years, that's what she said to me then "it's your life"

4:58 am

Haz1558

Do they live close to you at the minute, Ex-Wren?

4:59 am

ExWren

Yes, all my children live within 5 miles of me

5:00 am

lynxxx

Queensland is a great place to visit ExWren - lots of lovely trips for you - and free accomodation to boot (I hope)

5:00 am

Haz1558

So, it's really going to hit home - this sounds stupid because I know you'll miss your son, but the baby going will be awful. I know that grandmothers are a breed apart.

Gosh, he's on his feet! What a lovely little boy.

well, I missed you Scrabbler.

5:47 am

LoriP

You survived okay yesterday SCrabbler?

5:47 am

Scrabbler

It was a long day. A partner is on a cruise in the Carribean, so I covered. It was long but not unbearable.

5:48 am

LoriP

Glad. I know you were so thrilled about leaving yesterday morn.....

5:49 am

Scrabbler

I find it so hard to exit Babble Land, esp knowing you are all he** and there are words to find.

5:50 am

Atalante

scrabbler, do you mind if I email you about something medical? not about me or anything, but its stuff people probably wouldn't like to hear about!

5:50 am

gramma

good morning or whatever time it is for you.

P.J.

howdy grandma

5:51 am

Atalante

yes, I know *you* do hurshy LOL

5:51 am

Haz1558

I don't like hearing too much medical stuff. Some things should be kept private......

5:51 am

LoriP

G'd morning gramma

5:51 am

Atalante

ty scrabbler!

5:51 am

Scrabbler

But, Hazel, we do like to hear about the cows "scouring"---LOL

5:51 am

Haz1558

I don't go into detail, though!

5:52 am

hurshy

hmm, can i fall back asleep now, i wonder?

5:52 am

gramma

We ran out of fuel last night and it didn't take long for the house to get quite cold.

5:52 am

Atalante

yes, we like vet stories!

5:53 am

LoriP

Oh gramma, that's terrible. Must be cold. It's cold here this morn.

5:53 am

hurshy

hiree is so a word!!!!

5:53 am

Scrabbler

**coffee refill**

5:54 am

Haz1558

Maybe it's not so much abstract medical stories that I mind, but too much personal stuff is too much.

5:54 am

hurshy

argh, i wish the c touched an h

5:54 am

hurshy

yes, abstract good - and ata already said it wasn't about her, so it's not personal

5:54 am

gramma

The fuel man came and filled us up ( it was their fault ) but then my poor boyfriend had to bleed the lines and get everything going again.

5:55 am

Scrabbler

It must be cold, gramma, we are at 18 now and it was 12 when I went to bed last night.

5:55 am

Haz1558

Yes, but it's about a real person, so I respect Atalante's wish to preserve his/her privacy.

5:55 am

hurshy

but medical stories pretty much have to be about SOMEbody

5:55 am

Scrabbler

And I tried "roos"--DENIED!

5:56 am

hurshy

anyway, of course, if privacy is desired. i just silly.

5:56 am

Frances

Yes Scrabbler I already have that one. But if we can have that, why can't we have herr

6:19 am

6:20 am

6:23 am

Haz1558

As to the foreign words debate - you clearly couldn't allow all foreign words into an English dictionary. The qualification must be that it has been assimilated into the language or that is is understood by the majority of users. But there are mystifying decisions, all the same.

6:23 am

P.J.

HOLY COW!

8:55 am

hurshy

not ergo, it means "from that time forward"

8:56 am

hurshy

please excuse my nitpicking, it's a reflex

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

hey annie how are you feeling?

8:56 am

hurshy

well, the he is from THIS time forward, the th is from THAT time forward.

8:56 am

temple, I'm okay and how is your aching back?

8:56 am

8:57 am

72 Temple Owl

it's not bad!

8:57 am

Anniebrook

yw evan

8:57 am

hurshy

there are more phantoms than words today, i hate when that happens. and the so-many-c's phenomenon

8:57 am

Anniebrook

Temple, finally on the mend, glad to hear it, stay away from women on moving objects. lol

8:58 am

o-o

you can nitpick if you wish: as an inference from this fact; for this reason; therefore: The eggs were very fresh and hence satisfactory.

8:58 am

evanonut

morning all

8:59 am

Anniebrook

BR said a woooorrrd

8:59 am

72 Temple Owl

for sure - no target for me ! ; )

8:59 am

hurshy

true, the he can do both... i guess i was thinking about the th originally

8:59 am

Anniebrook

hi nutsy is here!!!!

8:59 am

hurshy

and i'm grumpy right now. sorry.

8:59 am

evanonut

only for a short stint to spy on ya'll

9:00 am

kc8501

oh yay. a puzzle with a milion phantoms

9:00 am

72 Temple Owl

hi nut! finally get what i sent?

9:00 am

kthdsn

what's making you grumpy hurshy, can we help cheer you up?

9:00 am

evanonut

yeah, but i could n't get the pictures

9:00 am

72 Temple Owl

well then what's the point? wonder why?

9:00 am

hurshy

i don't know what's making me grumpy. i guess maybe waking up in the night didn't help... job searching...

9:01 am

hurshy

the grid...

9:01 am

evanonut

i dunno owl, i tried to open them individual and no dice

9:01 am

kthdsn

yeah I'm not enjoying job searching either, there's loads going but none of them reply to my applications :'(

9:01 am

72 Temple Owl

well then i must use them as icons - just for you!

9:01 am

kc8501

job searching is a good reason to be grumpy. I'm doing it as well, and it's very frustrating

9:02 am

evanonut

they must be good then

9:02 am

hurshy

i have an interview at 2, kate, but i think it probably doesn't pay very much. this is the main thing that makes me nervous - do i take any offer i can get, or, since i've basically just started looking, should i wait for something i really want?

9:03 am

evanonut

take a job hurshy, get in the swing, the market today expects you to move.

9:03 am

hurshy

and how hard can it be, really, to do a mass mailing to the people you don't want to hire, and say, "sorry, not interested", so they don't sit there waiting and hoping

9:04 am

hurshy

but nut, i have applications that have gone in very recently, for things i might much rather do. suppose this lady today offers me the job right away, and next week i find out i could do something much better?

9:05 am

evanonut

leave it and take the new job

9:05 am

hurshy

after a WEEK?

9:05 am

evanonut

if its a low paying dead end they don't expect to be able to retain the good employees

9:05 am

chiley

don't answer today..tell her you need a couple of days to consider it

9:05 am

kc8501

hurshy, I've learned one thing since working in a corporate environment, they do NOT care enough to send out a "sorry but no thanks" letter

9:06 am

kthdsn

hurshy at least you have an interview, I've been applying for stuff since before I left the UK and had nothing so far

9:06 am

raelite

kate - I may be able to help you out...where have you applied?

9:06 am

hurshy

have you tried temp agencies, kate? i'm interviewing with one of those on monday.

9:06 am

evanonut

owl, did you see the phantom...hernia?

9:07 am

kc8501

yeah. I have a job, and am looking for another. I'm either under qualified or over qualified, and in this small area... there's not a lot available in my field

9:07 am

evanonut

to be sure kc, willingness to relocate certain helps in hunting

9:07 am

hurshy

i had like 3 or 4 interview opps in boston but then i decided not to move there after all so... plllt

9:08 am

kthdsn

I'm applying for web design work, I've applied for jobs and projects from monster.ca and craigslist, and I've joined a couple of online agency things but had no luck at all so far

9:08 am

raelite

web design? ok...let me see if I can find you some leads...I work for a web design firm...

9:08 am

hurshy

wow, look at the networking!

9:08 am

raelite

will send you some info via email in the next few days

9:09 am

kthdsn

there are loads of help wanted signs in stores around here but I don't think I really want to be in retail, if I don't get something soon I'll have to start applying for them though :(

9:09 am

evanonut

back to working speaking of work...ta

9:09 am

kthdsn

thanks rae that would be helpful

9:09 am

kc8501

evan, unfortunately relocating isn't an option right now. The mr has a really really good job and we're in a good place

9:10 am

raelite

it's hard to get jobs in the TO metro area though: are you ok working outside toronto?

9:11 am

kthdsn

I think my main problem is that I know html/css inside out and I can comply with accessibility guidelines with my eyes shut, but I don't have a portfolio full of amazing designs, I'm more interested in the code than how pretty the page looks

9:11 am

kthdsn

I don't drive, so it's pretty much got to be in toronto

9:11 am

raelite

holy cow...if you lived here, you'd be working with me...we are looking for another coder

9:12 am

kthdsn

lol maybe I picked the wrong city

9:12 am

72 Temple Owl

bye all! later...

9:12 am

hurshy

(is it just me, or could coding be done at a distance, telecommuting...)

9:12 am

Anniebrook

bye temple, see you later

9:12 am

raelite

laughs...I'll see what I kind dig up for you in TO

9:12 am

kc8501

hurshy, it can but most companies don't like to do it that way

9:12 am

kthdsn

yes hurshy I've applied for some telecommuting work at home type jobs but not heard from those either

9:12 am

raelite

it's just that I know shoppers in MArkham is hiring web techs

9:13 am

kc8501

even here as loose as we are, we prefer to have people here for collaboration etc

9:13 am

kthdsn

markham, I think that's where my mum works, the subway goes there, unless I'm thinking of the wrong place

9:13 am

EvaNadine

MOST jobs can be done at home these days, but companies wanna actually be able to *see* you...

9:13 am

hurshy

i don't get that at all. when are companies going to start realizing that technology and people's lives mean working from home and/or at a distance is the way to go

9:14 am

raelite

honestly, I don't know toronto AT ALL! but you should call up Shoppers Drug Mart head office and ask if they are still looking

9:14 am

hurshy

it's so STUPID that they are stuck on that.

9:14 am

kc8501

well, honesty, our experience, our people can work from home if the need calls for it, but those who were remote located, 4/5 weren't doing what they were supposed to and the 5th only sorta

9:14 am

raelite

also Rogers communications

9:15 am

kthdsn

thanks rae, I'll look into it

9:15 am

EvaNadine

i agree hurshy!
my job is fairly lenient on that -- we arent allowed to make it a regularly-scheduled thing to work at home, but if im feeling a little under-the-weather or if i have a reason i need to be home + dont wanna take the day off, my boss usually lets me log on from home...

9:16 am

raelite

if you go to www.rogers.com, they are looking for techs in toronto

9:18 am

vpchat

I'm jumping in late here, but I'm seeing coders and designers... if any of you are interested in working remotely, I can get your resume to a couple of firms in Texas (San Antonio and Austin)

9:18 am

hurshy

hmmm. see, i would do what i was supposed to do, so maybe that is why i think it is silly.

9:19 am

kthdsn

vpchat I don't think I'm authorised to work in the USA

9:19 am

kc8501

yeah I know hurshy. I actually work harder FROM home

9:19 am

vpchat

I work with contractors all over the world :)

9:19 am

raelite

I don't think you have to be leagal...most companies will take anyone nowadays!

9:19 am

bookgrrl

as someone who works primarily from home, it's not always so great. the boundaries between work and home become indistinct, and i find it refreshing to actually go to the office...

9:20 am

kc8501

unless it's gov work

9:20 am

kthdsn

well I'm interested, as long as I'm "allowed" lol

9:20 am

vpchat

agreed, bookgrrl - I've been an entrepreneur forever. Sometimes I had an office, sometimes I've worked from home. I'm working from home now, and think I'm ready for some office time - I don't get out enough!

9:20 am

raelite

yeah, sounds like it would be really interesting

9:21 am

kc8501

I can totally see that bookgrrl. because the mr and work together work/home really have become almost the same

9:21 am

bookgrrl

i'm actually at a coffee shop right now, just to get out of the house

9:21 am

vpchat

kthdsn, send a resume to me at julie@vpchat.com

9:21 am

kthdsn

ok will do

9:22 am

vpchat

vpchat.com is my company too, but the company I work with where we use all the contractors is at http://mediarich.net

9:22 am

kc8501

heh. any need for a tech writer?

9:22 am

hurshy

9:23 am

vpchat

We are actively looking for coders (html, css, php, xml), designers (graphic/interaction/interface), flash designers/programmers, and copywriters

9:23 am

kthdsn

I didn't think playing babble would help with my job search, I should come here more often!

9:24 am

kthdsn

oooh I do xhtml, css and a little php

9:24 am

vpchat

no tech writing at the moment, but definitely send a resume kc8501 - it's a growing company.

9:24 am

vpchat

yeah, you just never know :)

9:24 am

hurshy

well, can i have clues for the ci7's?

9:24 am

kc8501

9:31 am

Atalante

9:31 am

flosey

Haz1558

Helo jakes-mum - I just jumped back into the conversation without saying I was back.

9:34 am

hurshy

i love my love with an M because he's meowy

9:34 am

flosey

need re7/32, any clues please?

9:35 am

hurshy

i don't love him quite so much with an M (i could never hate him...), because he is mischievous

9:35 am

hurshy

his name is Marty, and he lives with his Mom

9:35 am

Atalante

and because he manhandles mouses madly

9:35 am

Haz1558

re7/32 - follows people of importance

9:36 am

hurshy

ah, well, he would if he had any mouses. i suppose you could count his fake mouses.

9:36 am

Haz1558

And when they're really important, they have more than one, re8/45

9:36 am

flosey

thanks Haz, will work on that

9:36 am

Atalante

manhandles material mouses madly then!

9:37 am

hurshy

oh i forgot the bit about what i feed him

9:37 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, flosey.

9:37 am

hurshy

9:39 am

Atalante

9:40 am

hurshy

9:40 am

bookgrrl

make me quit trying heretic...

9:40 am

kthdsn

oh good at least it's not just me being thick!

9:41 am

flosey

lol, I'm feeling pretty thick right now !

9:41 am

Haz1558

It's the same structure as the latin plural re7/28 eye related word, just change the penultimate vowel.

9:42 am

kthdsn

ah ty, I wouldn't have got that from the previous clue, never heard of it before

9:42 am

hurshy

i did it!

9:42 am

kthdsn

wd hurshy

9:42 am

Haz1558

Really? I thought it was quite a normal word. Anyway, glad you got it now.

9:43 am

hurshy

i agree haz, normal wordies

9:43 am

hurshy

i'm not DONE kate, just found my en's

9:43 am

kthdsn

that still deserves a wd lol

9:43 am

flosey

I'm still puzzled !!

9:43 am

kthdsn

how many en6/7 combos are there, I have 2

9:44 am

hurshy

is the hi7 as fishy as the cr6?

9:44 am

hurshy

that's all kate, and then one other en6, and that's all the en's.

9:45 am

Hero Squad

boy... I could go for some hot ham water right now!

9:45 am

Hot Ham Water

hazaa! hot ham is here!

9:45 am

Hero Squad

lol\

9:45 am

Haz1558

Okay, re6/18 is a part of the eye. re7 is the latin plural. The re7/32 is exactly the same as the re7 eye one, except for the second to last vowel. It is changed for a later alphabet one.

9:45 am

hurshy

re7 rhymes with petting zoo

9:45 am

hurshy

lol

9:46 am

hurshy

(if you're a g dropper)

9:46 am

Haz1558

hi7 - I've never seen it before. It looks like a new classification of animals or something.

9:46 am

flosey

darn, I've been asking for the wrong one - it's the first re7/32 that I need

9:47 am

Haz1558

hi7/36 - a species of hairy animals. (thinking of an hi term for hairiness)

9:47 am

Hot Ham Water

haz, do you have a clue for the hi7? it's hard

9:47 am

hurshy

hmmm, ponders

9:47 am

pabtrek

9:47 am

jakes-mum

flosey, to put something up again

9:48 am

jakes-mum

jakes-mum

9:49 am

flosey

ic6 - remember when inge was being creative with her plurals this morning? Do the same with the ic4

9:51 am

hurshy

ty

9:52 am

Haz1558

re8/40 - point yourself in a new direction, heading east

9:52 am

Haz1558

re8/40 - mirrors the structure of those who are doing penance.

9:53 am

hurshy

9:54 am

Angelsong

9:56 am

jakes-mum

think of the famous express train flosey

9:56 am

Haz1558

Those who are doing penance - think of the adjective that describes them individually and as a group, then change the first letter.

9:56 am

hurshy

NO. i got it. don't clue it.

9:57 am

hurshy

in indiana jones and the last crusade, when he has to get through those spinning blades, the clue is "only the pe****** man will pass"

9:58 am

Sam

sounds like paying for the temporary use of a canvas shelter

9:58 am

EvaNadine

ahh, thanks!

9:58 am

Merk

clue please no 6,21

9:59 am

hurshy

didn't have a wedding ceremony? then you had no6

9:59 am

Haz1558

9:59 am

hurshy

oops i clued the 6/18

10:00 am

Sam

10:02 am

Strider

10:02 am

hurshy

no, the key was in the ceremony

10:02 am

Strider

But, I got it anyway

10:02 am

EvaNadine

Strider

10:05 am

hurshy

10:05 am

EvaNadine

"retinoo" ?? nope...thats not it...

10:05 am

hurshy

10:05 am

hurshy

10:05 am

Haz1558

re8/40 - re, plus baby louse, ending in the last three letters of a canvas dwelling.

10:05 am

That's the right attitude, flosey.

10:15 am

hurshy

rah rah sis boom bah gooooooooooooooo brains!

10:15 am

hurshy

i love brains.

10:15 am

hurshy

they are so multi-talented.

10:16 am

hurshy

i think we should have a national brain day, to honor our brains for all the hard work they do.

10:17 am

EvaNadine

i *really* want "unicorn" to be an acceptable word

10:17 am

hurshy

when i think about all the things my brain is doing at this very minute... it blows me away. and that just gives my brain yet another thing to do! man, brains are cool.

10:17 am

kittychan

how would one celebrate brain day?

10:18 am

hurshy

it is an acceptable word, it just doesn't exist

10:18 am

hurshy

one would ponder the greatness of the brain (thus using the brain at the same time as you are honoring it)

10:18 am

EvaNadine

id like to honor my brain by giving it a vacation....

10:19 am

EvaNadine

and yknow, if i HAPPEN to be attached to my brain, i guess i sorta HAVE to go with it...

10:19 am

hurshy

well, there are weekends for that.

10:19 am

jakes-mum

only te's to go

10:19 am

EvaNadine

not MY weekends...my bring still has to work, just other kinda of work. :(

10:21 am

Scarlet

Unzip scalp; push 'open cranium' button; remove brain; gently put brain upon silken pillow; create special truffles for brain; dance; tip a few; reinsert brain in cavity and offer gratitude.

10:22 am

kittychan

I suggest a day when you ask your brain absolutely no 'why' questions.

10:22 am

Haz1558

And will that have the same effect as a facelift?

10:22 am

EvaNadine

but scarlet, how can one perform those activities without the brain to tell the body to do them!

10:22 am

Scarlet

Ahhhh... THAT's why we have brains in the first place...

10:23 am

Scarlet

Facelifts are optional, Haz... more of a headlift...LOL

10:24 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Scarlet, by the way.

10:24 am

Scarlet

Hello, Haz. And a good morning to thee.

11:10 am

jakes-mum

well I can't just abandon my babble friends! what if they need clues!

11:11 am

Haz1558

That's what I'm saying - there's more to this work thing than meets the eye.

11:11 am

jakes-mum

my duty always lies with fellow babblers! and I do work for my mum (who isn't here today shhh) so a few more minutes wont harm

11:11 am

Douglas

Is your hubby-elect aware of and ok with your Babble priorities?

11:12 am

jakes-mum

And I don't want to over exert myself this close to the wedding!

11:12 am

Haz1558

So, there's no real threat to your job. Unlike TO who risks the sack most days....

11:26 am

72 Temple Owl

hi dorens! well time for a walk - see you later!

11:26 am

Haz1558

There's a point. I've been on maternity leave for a while (entering my 24th year now) so it may take a while to build up energy levels again.

11:27 am

jakes-mum

and the downside of my job is that ocassionally you have to talk Jim off the window ledge when he has one of his frequent the world is Nigh moments (luckily we're in a one story building) a bar of bounty normally does the trick

11:28 am

Haz1558

There's no sewing involved, is there? Talking people down from ledges is one thing, but sewing.....

11:28 am

Does anyone in the UK refer to cigarettes as woodbines?

11:30 am

jakes-mum

4:30 . . . . .do we think its to early to go home?

11:30 am

Haz1558

Speaking of ledges - has anyone seen the photograph of the latest addition to the Grand Canyon experience? It was in the paper today, and it made me feel queasy at the thought. I'll try to get a reference.

11:30 am

jakes-mum

I thought cigars were woodbines?

11:30 am

hurshy

i wish that the job search engines had a thing where you could search by education level required. lots of the jobs i'm looking at require only high school, and lots of others require advanced degrees or bachelors' in business or something else specific. i want to know what people with liberal arts bachelors' degrees can do, want to see the options...

11:30 am

Atalante

it looks AMAZING!

11:31 am

Haz1558

People might have called them Woodbines years ago, they're a pretty old-fashioned brand.

11:31 am

Jacula

Woodbine is a brand of cigarettes in UK.

11:31 am

Douglas

The reason I ask is because Van Morrison made mention of woodbines in one of his songs...

11:31 am

Jacula

Hi all, btw.

Did you see it Atalante? There is no WAY I could do that walk.

11:31 am

My dad always smoked woodbines. And of course there's Woodbine Willlie from WW1

hi hurshy, and you're right, jobs should be sorted out that way

11:32 am

sorry...connection was reset; got my last u

11:32 am

jakes-mum

whats wrong bookgrrl?

11:32 am

Haz1558

Van Morrison is from Belfast - not sure whether Woodbines would have been made by Gallahers (a local cigarette firm), but yes, Belfast people would have talked about woodbines years ago.

11:32 am

hetty

I still have an old woodbine packet that I kept after Pop's death as a memento

11:33 am

jakes-mum

right, sorry all but hubby is tellign me I have to go home now, bbl

11:33 am

hurshy

wooohoo, the town of avon is in receipt of my resume and i must fill out an application form for further processing! (they sure like to talk funny)

11:33 am

Haz1558

Hot Ham - sorry to be so cryptic. I was thinking along the lines of combining hirsute with porcine. An easier clue would be, hi, plus a movie related word, reached by way of a consonant.

11:33 am

Haz1558

Bye jakes-mum.

11:34 am

Jacula

Re Woodbines - originally made in England by W.D. & H.O. Wills but now made in Ireland by Gallaghers.

11:34 am

Dorens

ah--- now that makes sense, haz thanks

11:34 am

hetty

Hot Ham Water--try replacing the "h" of gthe word menaing "hairy" with a soft "s" sounding consonant; then add the frequent adjectival ending

11:34 am

Hot Ham Water

at least i was thinking of the right word for hairy! hirsute was all i know, lol, thank you

You're a brave woman, Dorens.

11:41 am

11:41 am

Haz1558

Still, at least you're prepared to think about it. I have problems looking at the picture!

11:41 am

Jacula

Just looked at pics of Buzz Aldrin walking it. I'd go on it but I doubt Paul would!

11:42 am

Dorens

picture's worth a thousand words, haz.... and picture is probably as close to it as I'll get

11:43 am

Haz1558

I'd sooner put away everyone's shopping for a month. And you know how much I like putting away shopping!

11:43 am

Dorens

speaking of pictures, jacula yours is lovely... i'm looking out at several inches of snow, but knowing that those flowers exist somewhere is comforting

11:45 am

Haz1558

And I must go - Spangle needs a walk so we'd better get on the move. Nice to see you Jacula - it's been a while!

11:47 am

Dorens

i was recently inn mexico atalante, at Tulum where there are gorgeous Mayan ruins right by the sea and i was afraid to walk down the steps to the beach below... it all depends on my state of mind... fear of heights is a funny thing. once it grabs hold of me, it is almost insurmountable.... but it doesn't always come

11:48 am

Dorens

hi stid!

11:49 am

Atalante

i can understand that, i'm kind of the same. normally, I'm absolutely fine and can prance around places like that Grand Canyon with no problem. But every now and again I would rather die than even look over the edge

11:49 am

stidmama

11:49 am

Dorens

what happened to hurshy?

I can do mountains and cliffs and things, but I'll be d***ed if ladders are easy (though I can do it if I have a shot of courage first)

slow is okay... breathe in, breathe out *closes eyes and meditates on spring's arrival*

11:55 am

stidmama

oh man. that just stinks, Tea. that is the age where they start getting treated as adults even though they clearly are not there yet.

11:55 am

Dorens

makes no sense, so often it is clear that the kid is troubled and is screaming for help... hope he gets it

11:55 am

stidmama

hmph. that oo5 has been in the grid three days running...

11:56 am

Dorens

yes it is finally getting imprinted in my brain (hard to teach an old dog new tricks)

11:56 am

TeaNCrackers

well, one house was a total loss (three blocks from ours) and seven others were damaged. the power grid was down for most of Saturday and over 40 houses were evacuated. I'm sure he needs help, but I am having a hard time feeling sympathy right now!

11:57 am

stidmama

if something can be earlier, why not so4ier?

11:57 am

Dorens

oh my, tea. I u nderstand that. I was hoping it had remained just a brush fire

11:57 am

Dorens

stid, it might have to do with the y in early??????

11:58 am

stidmama

oh, of course *sorry, brain not fully engaged today*

11:59 am

caitlyn

Afternoon all........

11:59 am

TeaNCrackers

today's paper didn't say how he started the fire and it did say that they were only recommending third degree arson, so it may have been an accident

11:59 am

Dorens

stid, your brain not fullyy engaged still beats mine at fulll speed

11:59 am

TeaNCrackers

me, too dorens - stid has a great brain!

11:59 am

stidmama

okay, sa 4/5 is a word? that is weird...

Top of the morning, Stid. Got your messsage via Jilli and we discussed our lovely babble pals over Sunday lunch

12:00 pm

stidmama

stop it silly women! *blush*

12:00 pm

Dorens

i can't believe he would have meant to burn down people's houses... kids that age do love to play with little fires, and I'd hope that was all he had in mindd. still a powerful lesson to all who hear it of the power of fire and need for care

12:00 pm

stidmama

morning hetty! good to see you again.

12:02 pm

stidmama

hetty, I read the rest of the blog posts -- wow. I would never have considered Japan to have been a difficult stop!

12:03 pm

hetty

I don't think it's difficult if you know the Japanese language and the ethos of never losing face

12:05 pm

12:11 pm

only 6 to go from four boxes. So I will refresh my brain cells at the Y pool. BBL

12:11 pm

TeaNCrackers

but it applies for any phone line - cell, etc. pre paid phone cards, too!

12:11 pm

stidmama

decluttering always "sounds" like a good idea... *looks ruefully around office* but how to accomplish it without a match?

12:12 pm

periwinkle

will have to remind my sister to include that

12:12 pm
