5:24 am

lilliann

when is thanksgiving dc?

5:24 am

dcseain

4th Thursday in November here in the US. We usually take a 4-day weekend.

5:24 am

Eva

thanksgiving is the 22nd

5:25 am

herinfernallady

DC

5:25 am

Eva

early this year

5:25 am

dcseain

yes?

5:25 am

herinfernallady

I made this today but used brown bread and 800g brown lentils tinned and cooked so you can ditch the first two things

5:27 am

dcseain

this?

5:28 am

herinfernallady

yes

5:28 am

lilliann

hope you both have a good one!do you have all the family around?

5:29 am

dcseain

ty, lilliann, and i do, but i work that night, then head out of town for rest of weekend. this year. I work Xmas eve and Xmas this year, too.

5:30 am

Eva

Our family is quite far away, but Thanksgiving has become a time to round up strays...all of us who don't have biological family around - our chosen " family" rather than given. Quite nice and much less family drama

5:30 am

lilliann

thats a shame that you're working over xmas.have you got the new year off?we're going to france for xmas this year

5:32 am

lilliann

do you have them all at yours eva?

5:32 am

dcseain

yes, have new year off. In 2008 i have thanksgiving and xmas off, but work new year. So this year i get to play my annual new years mah jongg game. :)

5:32 am

Eva

this years yes. Sometimes at other's houses.

5:32 am

dcseain

and eva is right, for many of us Thanksgiving is more about spending time with those we care about, sharing a meal, than family per se.

5:33 am

lilliann

thanksgiving dinner, is that normally a big roast?

5:33 am

dcseain

roast turkey :)

5:33 am

dcseain

though i'm veggie, so a have roast tofurkey.

5:33 am

Eva

no- the obligatory food, if not vegetarian, is turkey

5:34 am

lilliann

well as the saying goes dc, "you can choose your friends but not your family"

5:34 am

dcseain

:D indeed so, lilliann. Family of choice, as we say.

5:35 am

Eva

Then every family has it's traditions, but the staples are often sweet potatoes, mashed white potatoes, stuffing, cranberries in some form, green beans ditto, and pies. I find it a great relief to be old enough to have given up some of the old obligatory family things, and do instead what really feels right an enjoyable.

5:36 am

dcseain

my family always has pumpkin bread with the meal - a lightly sweet pumpkin and nut bread with raisins.

5:37 am

Eva

Since half of our guests are vegetarian we will have roast turkey, tofurkey, sweet potatoes, a fantastic stuffing with pecans, apricots and Grand Marnier, stuffed mushrooms, veggies as yet to be determined, and pear tart.

5:37 am

lilliann

at the end of the day eva, you're the one thats eating it, so its up to you what you have.we don't always have the traditional xmas dinner either.

5:37 am

dcseain

sounds lovely eva. I have a recipe for a tofu-based pumpkin pie and a tofu cream, if you'd like.

5:38 am

Eva

There is also a tradition lil, especially in the southern part of the country, to deep fry turkeys, burn the house and fill the emergency rooms. That sounds lovely dc-yes, please

5:38 am

lilliann

hmmm,sounds lovely eva

5:39 am

lilliann

do you buy the bread already made dc,because my bairn would love that, or could i make it?

5:40 am

dcseain

we make it, it's easy, whether with fresh or tinned pumpking.

5:40 am

lilliann

uhh, i don't deep fry anything eva and i like my house as it is.....upright and char free!

5:41 am

herinfernallady

Ok kids im going to bed good night

5:41 am

dcseain

i'll get the recipe, and send it to you, lilliann.

5:41 am

dcseain

g'night lady!

5:41 am

lilliann

i'll have to try it dc.i have a bread machine so it'll be easier

5:41 am

lilliann

nite herin

5:42 am

lilliann

that would be great dc.thanks.

5:42 am

dcseain

it's a quickbread, not a yeastbread, so very easy, mix it, put it in a pan, and bake

5:42 am

lilliann

even better!

5:44 am

Eva

Thanksgiving is one of the biggest travel days in the country. When I used to drive to family that day I was horribly aware that the road was filled with thousands of other people, most extremely anxious about the fact that they were going to be with family. Even those who don't come from pretty troubled families (and I think that's a pretty rarified group) know that bringing everyone together is hardly ever a beatific, peaceful occassion. Also, the tradition is to eat until completely stupified and then some more. But don't get me wrong, I love Thanksgiving!

5:44 am

lilliann

xmas is just like that aswell eva

5:45 am

lilliann

i love xmas with my family,but am glad to come home!

5:46 am

Eva

it's so funny though that the image, especially the advertising one, insists that we are all going to have a lovely, sane time!

5:46 am

carleekat

tofu pumpkin pie sounds like an oxymoron to me...

5:46 am

dcseain

lovely, sane time, as if.

5:46 am

dcseain

it's a tofu custard, carlee, and quite lovely. peopel usually cannot tell the diffenence.

5:47 am

dcseain

and good morning, carlee :)

5:47 am

carleekat

morning dc....

holiday recipes should probably all include large doses of tranquillizers. Then I guess that many do that with alcohol.

5:47 am

lilliann

that's why we do every other year with family and a holiday abroad somewhere hot in between, as i get annoyed with having to be traditional every year and the expense of it!

5:47 am

dcseain

indeed so, eva!

5:48 am

lilliann

hi carlee

5:48 am

dcseain

sounds like plan, lilliann

5:48 am

carleekat

i hate the holidays..all of them

5:48 am

Eva

good idea lil!

5:49 am

Eva

Is there a way you could do them carlee that you would enjoy? If you throw away all the rules?

5:50 am

carleekat

lock my inlaws up together some 500 miles away and throw away the key?

5:50 am

dcseain

:)

5:50 am

Eva

sounds like a plan!

5:50 am

lilliann

that bad eh carlee!!

5:51 am

carleekat

and throw away every "commercial" aspect of every holiday...

5:51 am

carleekat

then I might be happy

5:51 am

dcseain

Testify, carlee!

5:51 am

Eva

Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where one could easily say "Hey, you know we really don't enjoy each other so how about we give each other the holiday gift of not imposing our company on each other?"

5:52 am

lilliann

especially christmas.there is a house down the road from me that has its lights on already.they've been selling xmas food in the shops since july.its ridiculous!!

5:52 am

carleekat

what would you like me to say dc?

5:53 am

lilliann

that would be less expensive aswell eva.good idea!

5:53 am

dcseain

oh, that's a form of strong agreement here in the South, carlee. :)

5:54 am

Eva

About 7 years ago I gradually weaned everyone I know away from holiday gift giving. I let it be know that I wouldn't be giving gifts, except for spontaneous baked stuff or home made stuff - but that could come at any time, and that if they felt that it really would make them feel bad not to give gifts to me, that was fine, I wouldn't refuse them but that I wouldn't reciprocate because it was just too anxiety provoking and expensive for all of us. Since them I've begun to enjoy the holidays again. But I think it's different if one has small children.

5:55 am

carleekat

My idea of a perfect christmas would be to rent a cabin up north... with one other family..no tv..maybe a radio so you can pick up one of those channels that plays christmas music 24/7 and everyone make the decoartion for a tree you cut down from the woods..and justhave a nice christmas dinner filled with board games... and books...and outdoors activities...

5:56 am

Eva

go for it carlee!!

5:56 am

lilliann

i agree with you both totally

5:56 am

dcseain

that sounds exquisite, carlee!

5:56 am

carleekat

unfortunately....I have been outvoted....so now the rul is NO ONE buys me ANYTHING

5:56 am

lilliann

that's why i like to go abroad and pretend it's not happening

5:57 am

Mitchell

any clues for se 6/21?

5:58 am

Eva

do you have anyone on the "other side" you want to contact mitchell?

5:58 am

lilliann

my hubby and i don't buy anything for eachother, and i normally make things for some of the family, but we don't buy many presents for others, only the bairn as she still believes in santa, but she never asks for much.

5:58 am

Mitchell

9:27 am

Bye, Owl. Hi Featherbee--yes, a toughie! And, Vicuna, I did wonder about your well-being. Also, BR, where are you?

9:27 am

featherbee

good to know. i won't try it then!

9:27 am

Haz1558

And hello Feather - I think it's hard. Or challenging, is that the buzz word?

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

hi feather, hi vi...

9:28 am

Vicuna

The litter called for me just as I was hitting "enter." ;)

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

i want "panacea"

9:28 am

Vicuna

Oh, don't we all, TO!

9:28 am

Scrabbler

School holiday, feather! November is a nice month for holidays. I don't have off though.

9:28 am

Scrabbler

I want utopia, Owl.

9:29 am

featherbee

well, with limited time, i'd prefer short and easy, so i'll hold off

9:29 am

Scrabbler

"peacut" should be a word, argh

9:30 am

72 Temple Owl

hey vi, what size pan is used for the trufflepie? i may make it for thanksgiving. i mean if i must use the springform. is it really messy in that type of pan?

9:30 am

featherbee

november is a rough teaching month. less structure for the kids with 4 half days for conferences an then the other breaks.

9:30 am

Scrabbler

Good point, Featherbee

9:31 am

72 Temple Owl

give me good old catholic school. you didn't get off for ANYTHING

9:31 am

Scrabbler

ph6 please?

9:31 am

Scrabbler

"phamus" doesn't work for some reason

9:32 am

Scrabbler

NM, got it now.

9:32 am

Vicuna

9 inch round, TO. If you have a high quality springform it may be no problem at all. Knowing me, ours is probably a cheap knock-off that doesn't seal right. But it has to sit in a water bath while it bakes, so if a bit of water gets in around the cracks of the pan, it gets a bit soggy there.

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

think ancitent egypt scrabs

9:32 am

Vicuna

Still perfectly tasty, but not quite as pretty for presentation. That's why I like the silicon.

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

vii, i generally put foil around the bottom of springform to protect from leaks. haveyou tried that?

9:33 am

Vicuna

Not off for Good Friday in Catholic school, TO?

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

that's about it. you get off holy thursday too.

9:33 am

Vicuna

Oh, no I never tried tin foil. That sounds like it would work.

9:33 am

Uneaixoise

ok, how many are willing to admit they tried "shamu"? LOL

9:34 am

72 Temple Owl

for holy days, they just march you to mass. the nyo go right back to class.

9:34 am

featherbee

i taught in a catholic school and we followed the public school calendar...same breaks

9:34 am

72 Temple Owl

*raises hand* but it led to a real word

9:34 am

montreal13

guilty as charged Une

9:35 am

Haz1558

Smug - no shamu here.

9:35 am

Vicuna

I wish my kids' school were hard-core. They have something off every week, it seems. And every holiday for them is an anti-hliday for me!

9:35 am

72 Temple Owl

they do have more time off now. nuns were not unionized in the strictest sense of the word. lay teachers are now majority.

9:35 am

featherbee

we didn't have any nuns

9:35 am

Scrabbler

I tried "shamus"

9:36 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Vicuna

9:36 am

Vicuna

Well, ummm.... try it again, Scrabbler!

9:36 am

Uneaixoise

haz :-D

9:36 am

72 Temple Owl

it must be awfully hard on working parents when their kids have a week of half days...or random days off

9:36 am

yeah, worked for me scrabbler

9:37 am

Haz1558

It's nice to know how Atalante feels all the time. A warm glow...

Vicuna

9:37 am

Scrabbler

AAAHHH, oh, dear, I committed a Babble crime and Hazel, Chief of Babble Police is here to write the ticket.......trudging off to the penalty box...I haven't had breakfast yet anyway.

9:37 am

Vicuna

Oh, dear, speaking of anti-holiday... must do some ironing... of children's ruffles...

9:42 am

Vicuna

Okay, all serene!

9:42 am

72 Temple Owl

the ts word means "spit"

9:42 am

Scrabbler

te6 please? Tecumsah doesn't work.

9:42 am

Vicuna

What's this about a ts5? *starts looking for anything other than tsute*

9:42 am

Vicuna

Got it.

9:43 am

72 Temple Owl

ok really going now - bye----eeee *poof*

9:43 am

Scrabbler

I am also trying "subaru"

9:43 am

chwerd

spit? I googled it and found it's a hand guard for a specific kind of sword

9:43 am

Haz1558

Vicuna, find the musical instrument, then make it look as though it has pretensions to Russian grandeur.

9:43 am

Scrabbler

Bye, Owl

9:43 am

montreal13

9:43 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Hazel

9:43 am

9:44 am

montreal13

egg-sh***d no doubt...

9:44 am

chwerd

lol - they ARE pretty!

9:45 am

Vicuna

Your other royalty can have the little eggs, maybe a brooch... But it takes some really extravagance to have a Faberge tu4!

9:45 am

Vicuna

*real*

9:45 am

Hello, back to find 53 words

9:45 am

montreal13

9:46 am

Haz1558

You're right, Vicuna.

9:46 am

superflippy

Good morning. Anyone else have any luck with the eu's?

9:47 am

Haz1558

I have them, if you need them.

9:47 am

montreal13

yes - both EUs done flippy !!!

9:47 am

Scrabbler

eu6==Latin spelling for "true" or normal breathing, as opposed to ap5 which is lack of breathing

9:47 am

Scrabbler

te6 anyone?

9:48 am

superflippy

Thanks so much, scrabbler!

9:48 am

montreal13

still dont have that te6 scrabs

9:48 am

montreal13

just found it !!

9:48 am

Haz1558

te6 - used to drink a beverage

9:48 am

montreal13

was drinking from it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9:49 am

Uneaixoise

what you drink Earl Grey out of!

9:49 am

Vicuna

LOL

9:49 am

Scrabbler

TY, Hazel. Stumped by a compound word

9:49 am

Vicuna

That's my problem. I only use mugs.

9:49 am

Haz1558

I know, Confused by china.

9:50 am

superflippy

I'm guessing the eu7 is not related to the eu6, then?

9:51 am

Uneaixoise

flippy, it's the same with one additional letter

9:51 am

Haz1558

It is indeed, you need to insert a vowel.

9:51 am

montreal13

latin plural flippy

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Sorry, flippy, eu7 has an extra vowel, latin

9:52 am

periwinkle

A very dear friend of mine is having a cardiac cath today, she is due at the hospital at 11 am. Please keep your fingers crossed that there are no blockages

9:52 am

superflippy

I tried latin plural, didn't work. Must be spelling it wrong. My high school latin teacher would be so sad!

9:53 am

Haz1558

It's not a latin plural.

9:53 am

Scrabbler

Insert extra vowel after the N

9:53 am

Haz1558

Insert a vowel after the consonant, you then have three vowels in a row.

9:53 am

Vicuna

Not pl, British spelling

9:53 am

Scrabbler

((Peri's friend))

9:54 am

superflippy

Aha! Got it! Thanks, vic!

9:54 am

montreal13

((((((((peri and peri's good friend)))))))))

9:54 am

periwinkle

thanks so much Scrabs, there is history of cardiac problems in her family so I am concerned

9:54 am

Vicuna

Fingers crossed, peri. (Despite the difficulty in typing this way.)

9:54 am

Scrabbler

?British, ?Latin....I don't know.

9:54 am

Uneaixoise

best wishes to you and your friend, peri

9:54 am

periwinkle

thanks montreal

9:54 am

periwinkle

thanks Une

9:54 am

Scrabbler

8 to go, all sh words

9:55 am

Haz1558

It's the Latin spelling, used in Britain (like we use that word every day around here!)

9:55 am

Scarlet

Good morning everyone. Peri, {{{hugs to you and your friend}}} You will be in my thoughts... I have to run... busy day ahead, but be well.

9:55 am

Scrabbler

Monkeys are working furiously today and coming up with some doozies that work!

9:55 am

montreal13

FINALLY got the dumpling clue !!! must have been an hour ago... brain seizing me think...

9:55 am

Vicuna

Right. I'm sure you wake up every morning and say to yourself, "Ahhh, another fine night of eu7!"

9:55 am

Scrabbler

Hi Scarlet

9:55 am

periwinkle

thanks Vicuna

9:56 am

montreal13

hi scarlet - how are you ?

9:56 am

Haz1558

It's my first thought, Vicuna. Then I wonder how smug I can feel.

9:56 am

periwinkle

bye, Scarlet, I saved a piece of gingerbread for you

9:56 am

Scrabbler

I started CPAP last week, with a very glamorous facial mask, I must say, so now, instead of ap5 I have eu6 and eu7

9:56 am

Vicuna

And the answer to that is: pretty darn smug!

9:56 am

Scrabbler

What is the dumpling word?

9:56 am

montreal13

i say smug, shmug... there

9:56 am

Haz1558

Not as smug as some, though.

9:56 am

Scarlet

Hi, montreal and Scrabbler... I am well, and it is a gorgeous day here, so, off we go... Thank you so much, Your Periness! :-)

9:57 am

Scrabbler

I am hoping to achieve full alertness for the first time in years

9:57 am

Vicuna

Well, not as smug as ONE...

9:57 am

montreal13

well scrabs, clue was "what dumplings are made of"... couldn't see it for a long time

9:57 am

Vicuna

Alertness is wonderful. I did it once.

9:57 am

Scrabbler

Am I being smug for mentioning ap5 and eu6 and 7? I do not want to be smug.

9:58 am

periwinkle

Scrabs are you really using CPAP

9:58 am

Vicuna

(hmmm... potatos, or flour...)

9:58 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Vicuna. I will give it a try--is it scary?

9:58 am

Vicuna

No, not you, Scrabbler. Ata! She's the queen of smug.

9:58 am

bbnaz

have those three.........

9:58 am

periwinkle

better to be queen of smug than queen of sm4/4

9:58 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I had 2 sleep studies recently, the 2nd one with CPAP, and I started last Wed night.

9:58 am

montreal13

exactly vic, some of us answered that and other things ... and the cluer responded with "fats"

9:59 am

periwinkle

hope all goes well then Scrabs

9:59 am

Scrabbler

ha4, Peri!

9:59 am

Vicuna

Is this the clue for su4?

9:59 am

montreal13

i hope things improve for you scrabs...

9:59 am

FMitch

Yay it's playtime. Afternoon All.

9:59 am

Vicuna

I think of that as bird food!

9:59 am

Haz1558

I'm realsing now what the dumpling thing was about.

9:59 am

Vicuna

Hello, FMitch!

9:59 am

montreal13

hi FM !

10:00 am

Scrabbler

The mask doesn't bother me as much as the pain from my injury--I cannot get comfortable.

10:00 am

periwinkle

hi there FM

10:00 am

Haz1558

Hello FMitch - good to see you!

10:00 am

periwinkle

I think the mask would drive me nuts

10:00 am

montreal13

are u still as smug then hazel ?

10:00 am

Vicuna

Oh, that's no fun, Scrabbler. Good uck with it.

10:00 am

FMitch

Hello, hello, hello :)

10:00 am

Scrabbler

Ah, su4--yesterday I bought some su4 packs to hang for my feathered friends outside.

10:00 am

Vicuna

Or even luck. Good uck sounds like an oxymoron.

10:01 am

montreal13

that's the one scrabs !!

10:01 am

Haz1558

No, the warm glow has worn off now. You must need to keep topping up levels of smugness.

10:01 am

Scrabbler

Hi FMitch

10:01 am

periwinkle

taking a short break, bbl

10:01 am

montreal13

lol haz

10:01 am

Haz1558

See you peri.

10:01 am

FMitch

I hear Ata is doing a special on smug shots.

10:01 am

Scrabbler

Bye Peri

10:02 am

montreal13

keeping my last 5 for later - was nice babbling with you all - have a nice day - bye for now

10:02 am

Vicuna

SHe drinks her tea from a smug.

10:02 am

FMitch

LOL Vi

10:02 am

montreal13

lol Vic ... "POOF"

10:02 am

Haz1558

Is she? I haven't been around much today so I'll have to catch up on any news.

10:02 am

Vicuna

Adieu, montreal.

10:02 am

Scrabbler

I never noticed the smugness to which you refer. Is this person the source of all knowledge?

10:02 am

Haz1558

Bye montreal - see you again.

10:03 am

FMitch

I haven't either Haz, actually haven't seen Ata for a while.

10:03 am

Haz1558

Scrabbler, Ata is good at everything and knows everything and everybody. It's just a running joke with us.

10:03 am

Vicuna

There's such a cloud of smug over her house that airplanes have to fly around.

10:03 am

Vicuna

Ata was on yesterday.

10:04 am

Scrabbler

You guys are funny! TY for cheering me up as I ponder going to work and being with boss, Richard Head.

10:04 am

Scrabbler

Talk about King of Smugness! He is King Narcissus!

10:05 am

Vicuna

Hmmm. Maybe you need to unleash the killer bunnies on him.

10:05 am

FMitch

The boss is sure to dull any pain you might be feeling and mask it with overall nausia.

10:05 am

Scrabbler

I mostly ignore him. Avoidance is the solution for bullies.

10:06 am

Wyrd

good morning everyone!

10:06 am

Haz1558

Maybe he's just like Mr Darcy and trying to hide his true feelings.

10:06 am

Scrabbler

hi Wyrd

10:06 am

Vicuna

Well, that's by far the most sensible thing, Scrabbler. But not so much fun for the rest of us to think about.

10:06 am

Haz1558

Perhaps beneath all that bluster, there beats a heart of insecurity.

10:06 am

FMitch

Morning Wyrd

10:06 am

Scrabbler

Oh, no, now I am nauseated.

10:07 am

Vicuna

Hello, Wyrd.

10:07 am

Scrabbler

He IS insecure, because I challenge him when he bullies me and that scares him.

10:07 am

Haz1558

Have I pushed you over the edge?

10:07 am

Scrabbler

One left--these sh words are annoying me.

10:07 am

FMitch

Haz you are presuming there is a heart in any form?

10:07 am

bbnaz

morning everybody . i am just curious as to why i cannot retain words from day to day. must be that disease A G E.

10:07 am

Scrabbler

No, Hazel, as I am safe and happy here in Babble Land.

10:08 am

Scrabbler

Hi Bbnza

10:08 am

Scrabbler

And bbnaz too

10:08 am

Haz1558

Oh, there has to be. (I'm trying to see this through Barbara Cartland eyes but the pinkness is disconcerting)

10:08 am

Wyrd

I really like Patricias books about verbal abuse Scrabbler, they help when dealing with bullies

10:08 am

bbnaz

barbara cartland...........i am now sniggering

10:08 am

Vicuna

Oh there is a heart. It's just that it's shrivelled and rotton.

10:08 am

Wyrd

my favorite is looking at them like they are insane and going "what???"

10:09 am

Scrabbler

Done--TY all for clues!!

10:09 am

Scrabbler

What book is that, Wyrd?

10:09 am

bbnaz

congrats Scrabs

10:09 am

Vicuna

Yay for Scrabbler!

10:09 am

bbnaz

66 to go for me.

10:09 am

Haz1558

I haven't thought about Barbara Cartland for ages. She was the original Mutton dressed as Lamb.

10:09 am

FMitch

Congrats Scrabbler, looks in awe from position of empty word list.

10:10 am

Haz1558

Congratulations Scrabbler.

10:10 am

Scrabbler

You too will achieve fireworks today, FMitch.

10:10 am

Wyrd

just search for verbal abuse and patricia evans Scrabbler, I dont remember the title exactly, how to deal with a verbally abusive relationship or some such thing

10:10 am

Wyrd

they have them on amazon, very reasonable as well

10:10 am

Scrabbler

So there are solutions other than castration or homicide, Wyrd?

10:10 am

Wyrd

she has a web site too

10:11 am

FMitch

Well that will be intersting Scrabbler as I am not planning on playing. looks around for other sources of fireworks *grin*

10:11 am

Vicuna

Ask lillian for some fireworks.

10:11 am

Wyrd

http://www.patriciaevans.com/

10:11 am

Scrabbler

Why aren't you starting the grid today, FMItch? And do you have any explosive materials at home?

10:12 am

bbnaz

I find laughing in the face of someone verbally abusing me to disconcert them immensely.

10:12 am

Wyrd

be warned though, i have found from time to time that bullies stalk her participants on the bulletin boards

10:12 am

bbnaz

of course sometimes just a slight smile will do.

10:12 am

Haz1558

She's just going to cause mayhem in the log....

10:12 am

Scrabbler

TY, Wyrd--I will now head off to look, and then have breakfast. Great advice Wyrd and bbnaz.

10:12 am

Wyrd

good luck Scrabbler

10:13 am

FMitch

I don't babble so much these days. As for explosive material, got a couple of juicy secrets and a Jackie Collins novel but I don't think that counts ;)

10:13 am

bbnaz

and if you really want to throw them off their stride, just toss in a couple of babble words!

10:13 am

Vicuna

Juicy secrets go more "splat" than "bang."

10:14 am

Haz1558

Juicy secrets..... do we have to play 20 questions to get them out of you?

10:14 am

Scrabbler

LOL, FMItch and bbnaz

10:14 am

FMitch

Good point Vi.

10:14 am

bbnaz

Laughter truly is the best medicine for what ails you.

10:16 am

FMitch

I agree with that bbnaz.
We need more laughter in the log too.

10:16 am

Vicuna

But no ha4/6.

10:17 am

Haz1558

As in the piggy produce?

10:17 am

bbnaz

well I definitely need ep5 and ep 6 but will continue to be amused by my monkey word that appear as i type

10:17 am

Vicuna

No, as in the defensive structure that resembles a laugh.

10:17 am

FMitch

After all laughter has no calories so can't make you fat but it does release the endocrines (?) just the same as chocolate does.

10:18 am

bbnaz

*endorphins

10:18 am

Haz1558

Okay, got you now, Vicuna.

10:18 am

Vicuna

Jokes are so not funny when you have to explain them!

10:19 am

Vicuna

Not that it was going to be especially funny in the best of circumstances!

10:20 am

FMitch

Hows hubby Haz, any anecdotes to tell?

10:20 am

superflippy

Still having trouble with su7. Hints, please?

10:21 am

Haz1558

He's fine - autumn calvings are starting now so it's beginning to get busier.

10:21 am

Haz1558

su7 - a variant spelling of what is served to make you attend court. Take out a vowel that usually appears.

10:22 am

Haz1558

Or, prefix for under, a three lettered writing instrument and finish off with a vowel.

10:22 am

crpw48

last clue please for fireworks, na5-12

10:22 am

Haz1558

na5/12 - almost, but not quite, Mrs Reagan. Change the sometimes vowel for another.

10:23 am

FMitch

BRB, its getting dark and is going to be freezing tonight. Time to close curtains and put heating on for a while.

10:24 am

Haz1558

I know, FMitch, definite drop in temperature here as well.

10:24 am

superflippy

thanks, haz!

10:24 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

10:25 am

crpw48

thank you haz, glad this grid is over with FIREWORKS

10:25 am

Haz1558

Congratulations!

10:25 am

bbnaz

okay help pretty please with the EP5 and EP6

10:25 am

Vicuna

Yay for crpw.

10:25 am

bbnaz

congrats crpw!

10:25 am

crpw48

THANK YOU ALL FOR CLUES

10:26 am

crpw48

must get to work now

10:26 am

Haz1558

ep5 ep plus the first three letters of the laughing fence. ep6 is the plural.

10:26 am

crpw48

have a nice day all

10:26 am

Haz1558

Thanks, crp, and you too.

10:27 am

bbnaz

wow Haz, I didn't even have to duck. I am really slow today sorry.

10:28 am

Haz1558

It's not a problem bb.

10:28 am

Haz1558

It's a bit of a teaser today.

10:29 am

FMitch

*settles back down and looks at the grid bemusedly*

10:30 am

Haz1558

As well you might.

10:30 am

Vicuna

Don't even look at it, FMitch. Just watch the pretty scrolling chat.

10:30 am

Haz1558

I'm just reading back in the chat log. I've decided this is a nice time to babble.

10:31 am

FMitch

*pretty green and yello, drawing me in, and in, pretty .....*

Splash!!!!

10:31 am

Haz1558

We'll stand back and watch the struggle.

10:31 am

Vicuna

Oh no!!!!! FMitch added a word, and now she'll HAVE to finish!

10:32 am

Haz1558

I know. Because NOTHING will stop her now.

10:32 am

FMitch

*little voice from far away* ......... help me!

10:32 am

harpjane

i don't think we have laughing fences in the States.... huh?

10:33 am

Vicuna

She's out in the ne4 tide, out of view of the ph6, and it will not end until she's in a watery to4/7!

10:33 am

Haz1558

ha4 - it's appeared before, harpjane. Low fence, just a repeat of the letters.

10:33 am

Vicuna

No, no laughing fences here, since we weren't much into medieaval warfare.

10:34 am

FMitch

*too late ...*

Oh well so be it - let battle commence. I'll find all the blighters.

10:34 am

harpjane

oh, THAT laughing fence! thanks

10:34 am

Vicuna

Actually, I guess they're more a product of manors.

10:34 am

Haz1558

I'm tickled that we can have a st5 in a te6 today.

10:34 am

Vicuna

Hello, harpjane.

10:34 am

harpjane

cu6?

10:35 am

harpjane

hi vuc

10:35 am

harpjane

vic

10:35 am

Vicuna

Nice one, Haz.

10:35 am

Haz1558

cu6 - another word for tradition

10:35 am

Vicuna

Age cannot stale nor cu6 whither her infinite variety.

10:36 am

debjed

hello everyone. happy Monday:) may i have a clue for the ac6,27?

10:36 am

FMitch

Great clues

10:36 am

harpjane

thanks

10:37 am

Haz1558

ac6/27 - Unreturnable tennis serve, shortened version of a body part.

10:37 am

Inge2

good day all. interesting letters, and I think I'm going to the list wtih 36 left as I've run out of words I know.

10:38 am

bichon

I give up, na 5?

10:38 am

Haz1558

Or, ac plus an anagram of the silent word in the grid.

10:38 am

FMitch

Hello inge2

10:38 am

Haz1558

na5 - Almost Mrs Reagan, replacing the sometimes vowel with another.

10:38 am

Vicuna

na5/12 - Ms Sinatra with an always vowel

10:39 am

bichon

ty Vicuna

10:39 am

bethn

hi all

10:39 am

Vicuna

Haz, you can just top up your smugness, because you beat me to the punch on every clue!

10:39 am

Haz1558

Hello beth.

10:39 am

harpjane

na5? then i have to go to work

10:39 am

Haz1558

Smug and quick.

10:39 am

Inge2

I was just going to ask what the smugness quotient was today.

10:40 am

Vicuna

Haz's smugness is riding at an excellent level of about 97, at the moment. I have fallen to only a little above 43.

10:40 am

Haz1558

Well, Atalante isn't around so we're revelling in the opportunity to be smug. It won't last when she comes back. She's younger, she's cleverer, she knows everything.

10:40 am

Inge2

:D

10:40 am

debjed

ty for the ac clue

10:41 am

Haz1558

You're welcome deb.

10:41 am

FMitch

97/100 flip, that seems a tadf high, but then for an overlord I guess nothing but perfection should be the norm.

10:41 am

Inge2

there are so many body parts in this grid, I'm still working on that clue

10:41 am

Haz1558

It's an affectionate term for the midriff area, if that helps?

10:41 am

bubblepop!

hi everyone!

10:42 am

Haz1558

Hello bubble!

10:42 am

Inge2

indeed, yes, Haz. thanks

10:42 am

Inge2

welcome to the grid, bubble

10:42 am

Haz1558

You're welcome. (smug levels rising, another clue understood)

10:43 am

Vicuna

Atalante is pretty much 100 all the time, so the rest of us fall short even when we reach 97.

10:43 am

Haz1558

This is true, Vicuna. We can never hope to achieve her levels.

10:43 am

Vicuna

Still, I'd settle for anything above 80.

10:44 am

Haz1558

Would you like online tuition?

10:44 am

FMitch

*sneaks up to the scoreboard an changes the 4 to an 8*

10:45 am

Vicuna

Oh, look, everyone! I'm smugness level 83! Whaddaya know!

10:45 am

Haz1558

Feels good to be this smug, doesn't it?

10:46 am

Vicuna

So take your online tuition and stuff it under your hat. Who needs it!

10:46 am

Vicuna

I am SO GREAT!

10:46 am

FMitch

She hasn't got room under her hat - it's full of smugness, silly.

10:46 am

Haz1558

I'm cut to the quick.

10:46 am

debjed

help with the ep5,16 please

10:46 am

Vicuna

(Sorry, folks, I think i got the smugness equivalent of the bends.)

10:47 am

bubblepop!

way to be modest vicuna

10:47 am

Inge2

ep and snort of laughter (working on smugness quotient)

10:47 am

Vicuna

lol, bubblepop. SHould I point out that I'm the most wonderfully modest person here?

10:47 am

Haz1558

Smug and modest? Can this be?

10:47 am

carleekat

*SNORT GASP CHOKE*

10:48 am

bubblepop!

i woulodn't

10:48 am

Haz1558

Anyone know recussitation techniques?

10:48 am

Vicuna

Well, not everyone can pull it off, Haz. But for someone as talented as myself...

10:48 am

FMitch

Oh dear, whoever is nearest to Carlee, give her a smack on the back

10:48 am

carleekat

*gurgle....fading to black*

10:49 am

bubblepop!

pane

10:49 am

oops sorry

10:49 am

Vicuna

carleekat! Speak to us!

10:49 am

debjed

ty Inge

10:49 am

FMitch

Oh that reminds me, did your window fitting go well Haz?

10:49 am

Inge2

yw, deb

10:49 am

Haz1558

Don't talk to me about window fitting..... Okay, perhaps it wasn't so bad.

10:50 am

FMitch

Ahhh

10:50 am

carleekat

am here.....

10:50 am

Haz1558

Well, the plan was that the old, double glazed units would just ease out. Not possible. Plan B was adopted. Smash them out.

10:50 am

Vicuna

She lives!

10:51 am

Vicuna

Sounds exciting, Haz! Maybe a little too exciting.

10:51 am

carleekat

after vic tries to kill me

10:51 am

Haz1558

So, bangs and crashes and smashing glass noises were ringing in my ears for hours. They managed to get the new ones fitted, but the mess!

10:51 am

Vicuna

WHAT!?! What did I do? I plead inncoent, your honor!

10:51 am

FMitch

with much barking I suspect to assist the general demolishing noise effects

10:51 am

carleekat

hopefully they had the intelligence o smash out rather then in?

10:52 am

Haz1558

Yes, Spangle was thoroughly confused with the whole process.

10:52 am

Haz1558

I don't know what they intended to do, carlee, but there was still some little slivers of glass inside.

10:53 am

carleekat

slivers not too bad....they SHOULD have installed tarps on INSIDE...and smashed inward actually..to all be caught on the tarp..and pushed outwards...

10:53 am

Haz1558

However, all is back to normal now and I was able to use my nice new vacuum cleaner to clear up. I have replaced Mr Dyson with Madame Miele. Quieter, slimmer and a bargain in the sales.

10:54 am

Haz1558

I'll remember for the future, carlee.

10:54 am

bubblepop!

bye everyone got a friend to ammuse

10:54 am

FMitch

I have a Miele, dainty but very robust and great longevity of service.

10:55 am

Vicuna

Bye, everyone, got two children to amuse!

10:55 am

carleekat

( tapes tarps aound perimeter of the window on inside...smash inward for tarp to catch like a sideways bowl)

10:55 am

Haz1558

Let them knock out your windows, Vicuna, that will amuse them.

10:55 am

FMitch

Bye Vicuna, good to see you.

10:56 am

carleekat

take care vic

10:56 am

Haz1558

Bye Vicuna.

10:58 am

debjed

i know you guys were doing a lot of clues for the eu's, but i never got them, any more help?

10:58 am

Haz1558

I'll have to follow suit and go. I need to bring the laundry in then get evening meal under way. I'll bet you nobody else will notice that I've cleaned like a madwoman today. They'll just think I've been on babble all day!

10:58 am

lizmac

Hello people. Down to my last 3, and begging clues, please.

10:59 am

stidmama

go liz go!

10:59 am

lizmac

10:59 am

Haz1558

Okay, liz, fire away.

10:59 am

FMitch

Ive just found one of the Seven Wonders of the World on the grid! and hello stid and Liz

10:59 am

caitlyn

Afternoon all........

10:59 am

stidmama

Haz, I can tell, your house is shining even from here!

10:59 am

carleekat

it went stid..am exhausted... and now COMPLETELY scared....crapless re: when he comes home for good..only thing that got me through was knowledge he was gong back sunday at noon

10:59 am

Haz1558

na5/12 - almost Mrs Reagan/Ms Sinatra, but change the sometimes vowel for a real one.

11:00 am

Haz1558

Thank you stid!

11:00 am

lizmac

First HA5/14?

11:00 am

Haz1558

Hello caitlyn.

11:00 am

FMitch

Im wearing dark glassez from the brilliant light of Haz's abode.
Hi caitlyn

11:00 am

lizmac

TY, Haz.

11:00 am

stidmama

{{{carlee}}} there, there... you know you got through it. Now you have some time before he comes home and you can think about what you can do to make it easier. You have more information about what will be required.

11:00 am

Haz1558

ha5/14 - mirrors exactly the structure of the na5 just clued.

11:01 am

Haz1558

The right thing to say, FMitch.

11:01 am

caitlyn

carlee Im pleased to hear he is getting well enough for home visits you will cope well Im sure

11:01 am

carleekat

yea...why more patience...and a rope to bite on instead of my tongue..THAT what I need stid..he's NOT a good patient...at all

11:01 am

stidmama

I babysat for a dear friend a couple years ago when her kids were 4 and 2 (or was it 5 and 3?) anyway, I had completely forgotten what it is like to be around kids that age, and I was overly involved. I had forgotten how to pace myself.

11:01 am

caitlyn

LOL carlee no man is!!

11:02 am

joso

like you carlee he is facing some very tough realities, time should help you both

11:02 am

stidmama

Actually, carlee... LOL *nodding in agreement with caitlyn* --- and he WILL learn. Because you will be the good "mother" and make him do as much for himself as he can. That is the only way he will regain his independence.

11:02 am

carleekat

ok...he on the far end of scale for being a patient

11:02 am

lizmac

Last one, first ST5/12.

11:03 am

Haz1558

11:03 am

11:17 am

carleekat

i want to go hide in my bed all day..but I have to go to work soon :(

11:17 am

Angelsong

11:17 am

caitlyn

Angel the house looks terrific I dont blame you for being excited

11:17 am

stidmama

oh carlee {{{hugs}}} *brings in mug of mochajavachocolatte*

11:17 am

FMitch

OH WOW that is brill

11:17 am

bbnaz

Carlee -- how did everything go? You are here so you must have survived!

11:18 am

Angelsong

it's even more beautiful now that it's finished. both lawns are in now, privacy fence in back is completed, toilets and sinks are in, painting is done, and I imagine the carpet and tile is done by now.

11:18 am

caitlyn

(((((carlee)))))))) You will be fine,its probably the the shock of all that has happened

11:18 am

carleekat

it went..he is very high maintenance and very impatient ... I got to take him back yesterday at noon..I am already dreading this coming weekend..and the homecoming next friday ( 23)... I know it sounds terribly cruel....but the worst is over..now the marathon begins

11:19 am

bbnaz

Angel, what is a "privacy" fence?

11:19 am

stidmama

It is not cruel, carlee. It is realistic.

11:20 am

Angelsong

it is six feet high, locked from the inside, bbn

11:20 am

bbnaz

carlee......reality is not always pretty but you have now been there with him and come out the other side. you will be STELLAR!

11:20 am

bbnaz

that sounds like the typical fence here in arizona.

11:20 am

carleekat

and of course..the m-in-l who has NOTHING positive to say to me from the outset was around ALL weekend..and willbe around...ALL the time once he IS home

11:21 am

debjed

help with the su7,44?

11:21 am

stidmama

Mother (stidgmere) is on her way, we have an "artists' date" with the boys at a pottery studio.

11:21 am

stidmama

Good carlee. Take advantage of her. Let her fetch and carry on your days off, and YOU GO somewhere pleasant. Visit with friends, or whatever you need to do to stay sane(ish)

11:22 am

Angelsong

alt spelling of a notice to appear in court, dejed

11:22 am

caitlyn

carlee let her do some of the work to make it easier on yourself..Snap stid!

11:22 am

stidmama

Meantime, remember that it is YOUR house. Your husband will learn to do many things for himself, he is not incapable, he just has to learn how to do things.

11:22 am

stidmama

LOL caitlyn! GMTA!

11:22 am

carleekat

it doesn't work that way with her stid... she's as helpless as he is right NOW... when hse is here... I am expectd to fetch and carry for her...ALL the time

11:23 am

carleekat

else... I would be NOt a proper HOST

11:23 am

stidmama

Then don't let her come. If she adds to your burden, neither you nor your husband need her. Again, not cruel, but realistic

11:23 am

carleekat

I would not BE a proper host..pardon me

11:24 am

stidmama

If she is "family" -- and will be there more than occasionally (ie once a month) then you are not her host, and she is imposing.

11:24 am

carleekat

ah..but hubby still wants his mommy... its... a very long..tiresome issue....

11:24 am

carleekat

she imposes ALL the time stid... but she is his mother....

11:24 am

stidmama

Then he can entertain her carlee... You have enough to do. Start off by setting your limits, or they will continue to walk all over you. You cannot keep up a pace like that.

11:25 am

caitlyn

What tasks do you have to do for him carlee

11:25 am

stidmama

If you try, you WILL become ill, and then your children will suffer. For me, I draw the line when my kids' quality of life declines...

11:25 am

carleekat

fetch and carry... help with toiletting... dressing... stairs...all for now..not for forever...

11:25 am

stidmama

Gah. My shoes aren't on. Gotta go.

Evening all...I'm stuck at the airport in Tampa with a five hour delay to survive. The good news is, free Wifi at the airport here means Babble and Iron Sudoku to kill time with. The bad news is, I don't get home till three in the morning.

5:24 pm

hurshy

it's just a soft cube to sleep or play in, with a hole in one side, and there is a little toy that dangles from the top.

5:24 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Jan

6:19 pm

Flask1

6:20 pm

FranMag

did you install the flickr application?

6:21 pm

Flask1

how would I know......what should I look for?

6:21 pm

FranMag

flask, on the left hand side, do you see a link that says photos?

6:23 pm

Flask1

No Fran

6:24 pm

6:24 pm

Flask1

7:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

i heard thhat "endzone" is being filmed

7:36 pm

dcseain

i've heard both sides of that coin, TO. I've been debating braving the movie - it can't be worse than the book. I've tried reading it4x, each time making it part of a chapter further into the book.

7:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

well yes, but dune was particularly egregious

7:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

pam

I love the word "egregious" that and "execrable"

7:37 pm

Dorens

absolutely true owl. did anyone read atonement? almost the perfect book (IMHO) and curious to see how they film it... could be good

7:38 pm

pam

Sounds like a movie to miss...

7:38 pm

dcseain

oddly, the special effects in Tron, though dated, have held up well.

7:38 pm

pam

No, really, a perfect book? Hmmmm

7:38 pm

dcseain

7:38 pm

Dorens

7:42 pm

pam

I usually like Krakauer and wanted to read the book until I heard that it was spotty--I knew the ending, though, because I had read about the main character elsewhere

7:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

truthfully, the time i spend babbling has edged out my time for reading. i don't like that.

7:43 pm

Amyjv

7:44 pm

Dorens

exctly owl.... i keep saying i'm going to finish the book i'm reading now......hardly into it at all, between babbling, sudoku and other wastes of time online.......am ashamed of myself

7:44 pm

Dorens

7:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

well at least you can read and watch tv simultaneously

7:45 pm

Dorens

not me, have to concentrate when reading

7:45 pm

pam

I am glad I commute by public transport--get a lot of reading done, then

7:46 pm

Dorens

that would help, but I drive to work. so i do listen to books on tape

7:47 pm

pam

I prefer conjuring up the voices of the character myself so I don't listen to books on tape.

7:47 pm

Amyjv

7:50 pm

7:50 pm

Dorens

7:51 pm

oh, i looked at the gothic. The harps that are strung from the top are harder to keep in tune. Also the "profile" of the gothic harp makes it hard to move and it might be too big for an 11 year old even though it does not have many strings. \
