12:24 am

helenkeller

i feel like my brain is set to 'off' tonight

12:24 am

jillibus

ditto, HK

12:25 am

Cat9x

all but one of the 7's is a plural of a 6

12:25 am

Robespierre

Me too...My rationalization is that my brain cells are reserving themselves for the big grid that we know is coming one of these days...

12:25 am

jesdraggon

sadly, the 2 6's i have don't get pluralized...

12:26 am

12:28 am

jillibus

12:28 am

dcseain

oh, my alertness: the 500g of 70% chocolate helps, too :)

12:28 am

mirandapan

I'm still looking for the lo 7--I could give you a list of all the words its not--

12:29 am

Cat9x

I would only tell you that they all have a certain letter in common, thats all, might give you a place to start looking

12:30 am

Robespierre

Oooh!! I finally found one of the 7s!

12:30 am

jillibus

cat, if they are lo7 they have 2 letters in common -- L and O. lol

12:30 am

mirandapan

I think I know what the letter is, cat--I've been making some great non-words using it

12:30 am

Cat9x

12:50 am

FranMag

*crossing my fingers for dc's no traffic commute*

12:51 am

dcseain

a no-traffic commute on a non-holiday weekday is a RARE RARE event here. Hell, a no-traffic weekend is a RARE event here.

12:52 am

herinfernallady

I think its a German Timber wolf

12:52 am

12:58 am

herinfernallady

If you are talking to someone online via msn/yahoo/aol that kind of thing or see on their LJ diary that they are unwell and have health issues and they arent about for a while without telling you, send an email to their school/business etc they may have injured themselfs and need help

12:58 am

FranMag

okay jes, i still think you did great!

12:59 am

FranMag

is that what you did infernal?

1:00 am

herinfernallady

That is what a friend did with someone that she talks to. It has shown this troubled person that some one really does care about them

dcseain

fran, any hotel recs in/around honolulu for honeymooners?

1:04 am

bbnaz

Fran, herin, dc and everybody. how tough is the grid tonight?

1:04 am

FranMag

if money isn't an issue, then i would stay at the marriott resort at ko'olina.

1:05 am

herinfernallady

I did study for a year Youth Work and im a person that always thinks outside the box

1:05 am

FranMag

it's away from honolulu though, but much prettier location

1:05 am

joso

hi bbnaz, took doc 40 mins to do this grid

1:05 am

FranMag

not too bad bb, just started though

1:05 am

bbnaz

yeah well doc is not NORMAL

1:06 am

bbnaz

1:06 am

joso

I know that, just a good scale to mesure grid by

1:06 am

FranMag

in waikiki, can't go wrong with Hilton Hawaiian Village or the Sheraton Moana Surf Rider.

1:06 am

1:07 am

bbnaz

Thanks joso. It is a good measure. Someday I may just have one quarter the grid done before dart and doc and those speed demonds get done.........

1:07 am

dcseain

congrats, dart!

1:07 am

joso

another inhuman, well done dart

1:08 am

FranMag

if money is an issue, any hotel in Waikiki will put them where the action is. if they're going to be out sightseeing and stuff then hotel doesn't really matter that much.

1:08 am

herinfernallady

Check out wotif.com

1:09 am

dcseain

thank you both!

1:09 am

FranMag

dc, have them go to hawaiidiner.com to check out restaurants...it's my friends' site and i've done some reviews there also.

1:09 am

joso

then there is the joso scale, take my time, half it, and thats when the average joe should have it done by.

1:10 am

FranMag

you're being modest joso!

1:10 am

bbnaz

hey that last fa can't be a word *insert rolling eyes*

1:10 am

dcseain

ty, fran. i've passed all you and lady have suggested to him - my coworker - he's getting married in Jan

1:11 am

joso

you should read my blurb fran

1:11 am

FranMag

i'm surprised they're looking at honolulu dc, i thought everyone goes to maui and kauai now.

1:11 am

dcseain

part of the cost issue, of coures, peak season for tourists from the "mainland'

1:12 am

FranMag

LOL joso, okay, typing with two fingers will slow you down some, but it's not because of your brains. :-)

1:12 am

dart001

does anyone else have probs. logging out of this site....laptop will log me out....this computer shows me logged in all the time even when i try to log out....weird

1:12 am

dcseain

i agree, fran, but they wanted big city avaiable. I suggest both, and lanai, to them. My grandparents loved going to kauai

1:12 am

dart001

kauai is nice

1:13 am

dcseain

i don't experience that, dart

1:13 am

bbnaz

and why fi4.7 and fina?

1:13 am

FranMag

yes, maui and kauai are both more expensive for visitors i think and harder to find affordable rooms.

1:13 am

bbnaz

dart......i have had a bit of a problem also with logging off the past couple of days.......seems to be resolved for me however. didn't do anything different, it just started letting me go again

1:13 am

joso

smart in many ways fran, no ego problem here, but not so good with speelinks

1:14 am

dcseain

heh, great photo, bb

1:14 am

dart001

we went to kauai a few years back...stayed in a rental condo...very nice and about a third of the price of a hotel

1:14 am

FranMag

sometimes that's an advantage joso, many a word has been found by making a typo or spelling error.

1:14 am

FranMag

cool dart

1:14 am

bbnaz

that was a fun night. lots of smiles there......

1:14 am

herinfernallady

IF they go to wotif you can see verious destinations

sprite

lol Fran, you will get her back, I am sure :)

2:08 am

dcseain

2:09 am

rolin

hey all...nice move of scrabble sprite

2:10 am

lynxxx

Hi Rolin

2:12 am

dcseain

i'm having trouble keeping up w/facebook since signing up, mostly due to 1 friend :)

2:12 am

sprite

Ata rocks with scrabble. And she is fun to play with, as most babblers are... more interested in great words than in winning!

2:12 am

FranMag

ping (robin) is really good too, as are heather, hursh and nrkii

2:12 am

rolin

2:12 am

sprite

the mind is willing, rolin... but the flesh.... sigh

2:23 am

rolin

ive always been lucky...ive never had to dive more than 20 mins to anywhere ive worked

2:23 am

dcseain

travel time between home & work is a commute.

2:23 am

sprite

a 20 minute's dive, rolin? You work on the sea bottom?

2:24 am

dcseain

i live 25mi/40k from my job. w/out traffic, it's 30-40 min. w/traffic, it's 60-90, assuming no accidents nor road closures.

2:25 am

dcseain

somedays a bit less time, some days a bit more.

2:27 am

dcseain

does the curriculum in the Netherlands teach the role the Dutch played in colonizing America, sprite?

3:30 am

dcseain

Excellent question, babblerabble, esp considering the still-strong Dutch influence in the New York City, nee New Amsterdam, area.

3:42 am

o-o

It takes your blood about one minute to make a complete trip through your body, during which it carries oxygen to outlying cells and returns with waste matter from the cells.

3:43 am

i'd forgotten how quickly it completes a circuit.

4:17 am

herinfernallady

I have no idea

4:18 am

herinfernallady

It was basic stuff it was all about relaxation rather than bendy like a prtzel

4:18 am

dcseain

stretching and breathing do wonders for the body in so many ways

4:18 am

dcseain

yes, relaxation is key in yoga, and all good stretching practices, as is conscious breathing

4:20 am

herinfernallady

My back and hips feel so much better. There was a relaxation at the end that was mind altering it was awesome

4:42 am

herinfernallady

OK i am going to sound like a new age hippy but tonight i got to go some where on else. I was running with wolves on a dessert plane and there were eagles circling.

4:42 am

herinfernallady

DC lasagna from the store

4:43 am

dcseain

coming from a Native American tradition, desert plane represents an open expanse/new opportunity, the wolves are knowledge/cooperative work/comraderie, and the eagles are majesty, power, protection.

4:44 am

dcseain

when we meet, if you're willing, i'd be happy to do a reading and see what i might of your hunting grounds, if you are open - lit and fig - to that.

4:47 am

herinfernallady

Cool. ANd very cool My spirit beast is wolf so that was very cool. People think i am odd when i say i have a pack and i can smell when change is coming

4:48 am

dcseain

i know nothing of the aboriginal tradition there, but i gather that there be some parallelism to our Eastern/Plains tradition on this continent.

6:20 am

Haz1558

Are you thinking of anything in particular, or is it a general observation?

6:20 am

inge

as nutty questioned, who decreed that it has to be at least ten, why not less Chrsitians pray in smaller groups

6:22 am

Haz1558

It refers back to the sins of the ten spies who brought back bad reports of Canaan.

6:22 am

Maybe represents the ten tribes of Israel? (Good morning, all)

6:22 am

G'd morning Nonnie

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minyan scroll down to Origin and it says why 10 instead of other numbers ... and why not when. There is no such thing as an UNarguable Jewish rule.

8:38 am

Shawnee

8:38 am

Scarlet

Well then, I must scramble to be as lovely as your Spangle... there must be something of that ilk in Asheville... this town has everything. Thank you, Haz.

8:38 am

Haz1558

You're welcome!

8:39 am

Shawnee

Spangle must be enjoying all the snuggles he is getting since smelling so lovely

8:40 am

phandmd

8:40 am

Haz1558

8:40 am

montreal13

8:41 am

Shawnee

very nice montreal

8:41 am

Haz1558

She's having a nap, prior to the afternoon walk. She always comes home quite excited after the groomers, races up and down the hall then settles down again.

8:41 am

Scarlet

I'll have to refresh, montreal... I see the prior one...

8:41 am

Haz1558

Oh, pretty colours, montreal!

8:41 am

amelu0218

phandmd, last sh6, yiddish for village, I had to go to a cross reference dictionary...

8:42 am

Haz1558

The proof that I've been babbling too long is that I remember the Yiddish village appearing a couple of times before.

8:43 am

Mitchell

8:46 am

phandmd

I was using the wrong so, in fact didn't notice that other one! Thnx

8:47 am

Atalante

Poor Imran's been arrested :(

8:47 am

Scarlet

Neither did I, phan... wow... Babbling creates some strange creatures

8:47 am

Scarlet

!

8:47 am

periwinkle

I am doing better today, Scarlet

8:47 am

Haz1558

No! House arrest or worse?

8:47 am

Scarlet

I am so happy that you have come away from the funkiness, peri!

8:48 am

Scarlet

Sorry... who is Imran?

8:48 am

Atalante

Mr Niazi said Mr Khan was subsequently locked inside a nearby building for an hour by the rival students before they put him in a van and drove him to police officers waiting at the campus gates.
Later, several Lahore police officials confirmed they had taken Mr Khan into custody.

8:48 am

Haz1558

Imran is to Atalante as George is to Hazel.

8:48 am

Atalante

properly arrested!

8:48 am

Haz1558

Oh dear.

8:49 am

Scarlet

Oh, my... sending appropriate sorrow for Atalante, then, Haz!

8:49 am

Atalante

and also to Hazel too, second only to George

8:49 am

Haz1558

Will you explain about Imran, Atalante?

8:49 am

Scarlet

Rival students... is this a sports' related name?

8:49 am

Vicuna

Sorrow? Nonsense. If he's arrested that just means he can't run away from you, Ata.

8:50 am

Scarlet

LOL... hi, Vicuna!

8:50 am

Atalante

Imran was a cricketer playing for Pakistan, then became a politician, marrying Jemima Goldsmith along the way. He' sjust wonderfully handsome.

8:50 am

Haz1558

Hello Vicuna!

8:50 am

Vicuna

Hello, all.

8:50 am

phandmd

now need 1st te 5/10 pls

8:50 am

Shawnee

always the excellent voice of reason, Vicuna.

8:50 am

pabtrek

Hi Nono in the Fingerlakes, about 35 miles south of Rochester

8:50 am

Haz1558

He's involved in the political opposition in Pakistan. He's not favoured by Musharaf.

8:51 am

Aloyisius

hi, Vicuna..

8:51 am

Scarlet

Okay... the same team whose coach was found dead in a hotel a few months ago, Ata?

8:51 am

Haz1558

le5/10 - te plus beginnings of winning's opposite.

8:51 am

NonoNanette

cool we are nearly neighbors pab. I am a bit south of watkins glen

8:51 am

phandmd

and done! I can give a couple clues but gotta run

8:52 am

Haz1558

Imran has been out of professional cricket for a long time now, but yes,it was the Pakistani cricket team whose coach died.

8:52 am

Atalante

thats the one, Scarlet

8:52 am

Shawnee

congrats, phan

8:52 am

Haz1558

Congratulations phandmd.

8:52 am

Vicuna

Yay for phandmd!

8:52 am

crpw48

8:52 am

periwinkle

yay for phan

8:52 am

Atalante

but he's now caught up in the instability caused by Musharraf

8:52 am

Scarlet

NONO...Watkins Glen is where I saw some incredible formula racing.. and met Jackie Ixyx many years ago!

8:52 am

crpw48

wtg phandmd

8:52 am

Aloyisius

congrats, phand!!!

8:52 am

pabtrek

wow, love watkins, hills and waterfalls, beautiful

8:53 am

Haz1558

sh6/21 - sh, three letters of French head, or infamous Vietnamese offensive, finish with a consonant.

8:53 am

NonoNanette

the Glen is rich in racing history Scarlet!

8:53 am

Shawnee

must be going, final ultrasound today. "crosses fingers baby is no longer feet first*

8:53 am

NonoNanette

good luck shawnee!

8:53 am

Vicuna

Good luck, Shawnee!

8:53 am

phandmd

so does anyone need a clue? Good luck Shawnee

8:53 am

Haz1558

Turn baby turn!

8:53 am

Scarlet

Yahoo for phan!!

8:53 am

Aloyisius

i am wearing the monkies out on go6.30..

8:53 am

Scarlet

Best of luck, Shawnee! :-)

8:54 am

Vicuna

Stand on your head if you need to!

8:54 am

NonoNanette

think wine glass Aloy but change the b

8:54 am

phandmd

kind of like a wine go* change the b though

8:54 am

Vicuna

go6/30 - looks like little protective eyewear

8:54 am

Shawnee

ty for well wishes. have a great day all.

8:54 am

Aloyisius

ty so much, phand and vicuna..

8:55 am

Aloyisius

you too, Shawnee..

8:55 am

Scarlet

What a silly word... thank you, Nono, phan and Vi.

8:56 am

phandmd

any more clues needed?

8:56 am

Aloyisius

and ty too Nono.. great clue.. I'm going to look that word up

8:56 am

Scarlet

Ata... is this arrest a serious event? Pakistan is all over our news, and the feeling is very uneasy about what is happening.

8:57 am

Aloyisius

it is a long-necked jar

8:57 am

periwinkle

47 left, need to do some errands, bbl

8:57 am

phandmd

If not, then I'll be off

8:57 am

Aloyisius

later, peri

8:57 am

NonoNanette

later peri

8:57 am

Haz1558

See you later peri.

8:57 am

Scarlet

Benazir Bhutto is being called a Harvard-educated corruption model... and Musharaf is being called a dictator... Later, peri!

8:57 am

phandmd

bye peri

8:59 am

Haz1558

I don't think there's ever anything straightforward about Pakistani politics. It's been described as being an army with a country rather than a country with an army.

8:59 am

Scarlet

And therein lies the insanity, Haz... yet, Mr. Bush continues to offer support and bleats out demands for elections...

9:00 am

crpw48

thank you Haz, finally got it, my husband walked up and knew right away the viet offensive term, vietnam veteran

9:00 am

Haz1558

I know. He probably means well.

9:00 am

Haz1558

Glad you got it, crp.

9:01 am

Vicuna

No, he probably doesn't. But if he weren't doing that he'd be bombing.

9:01 am

crpw48

fireworks, have a nice day everyone

9:01 am

Scarlet

I long ago abandoned any attempt to understand what goes on in Mr. Bush's mind, Haz... I have never been able to grasp his "foreign policy" for instance.

9:01 am

Vicuna

Yay for crpw!

9:01 am

Haz1558

Congratulations crp.

9:01 am

Aloyisius

congrats, and the very same to you, crpw!!!!

9:01 am

Scarlet

Well done, crp... way to go! :-)

9:02 am

Atalante

sorry, I ran downstairs to get some lunch

9:02 am

Haz1558

He's not the most inspiring speaker, that's for sure.

9:02 am

Scarlet

I'm asking about the seriousness of this arrest, Ata.

9:02 am

NonoNanette

congrats crp

9:02 am

Vicuna

Never apologize for lunch, Ata.

9:03 am

Scarlet

LOL... Vicuna,. you are cracking me up this morning!!

9:03 am

Atalante

well its serious, but not as serious as it could be - if they arrested Bhutto for example

9:03 am

Vicuna

Then I have not lived in vain, Scarlet! =)

9:04 am

Scarlet

LOL....

9:04 am

72 Temple Owl

question: why can't there be more than one stern end of a ship?

9:04 am

NonoNanette

I must be off now...... Happy Babbling everyone

9:04 am

Haz1558

The thing is, the high profile people might be arrested but they'll probably get out again. It's lesser known people who will suffer the most.

9:04 am

Aloyisius

the other end is aft

9:04 am

Scarlet

I thought Bhutto was under house arrest as of yesterday, Ata... Maybe I heard that incorrectly. 'Bye, Nono!

9:05 am

Haz1558

Bye Nono.

9:05 am

Atalante

she's under house arrest, but not *arrest*

9:05 am

Aloyisius

i thought so too, Scarlet

9:05 am

Vicuna

Well, there could... if it was a pushme-pullyou ship.

9:05 am

Aloyisius

bye, Nono.. thanks again

9:06 am

72 Temple Owl

*redfaced*

9:06 am

Vicuna

It's hard to sail around with two rears and no front!

9:06 am

Vicuna

Not that I speak from personal experience, of course!

9:06 am

Haz1558

That sounds like a desription of a flat-chested, big- bottomed woman.

9:06 am

Scarlet

EKS-cussseeee me, Vicuna??

9:07 am

72 Temple Owl

could not one refer the the afts - like "this equipment was designed to be mounted on the afts of ships"?

9:07 am

Haz1558

Try getting clothes to fit THAT shape.

9:07 am

Scarlet

That's half my description, Haz!

9:07 am

Vicuna

What, Scarlet?? Just trying to help out TO.

9:07 am

72 Temple Owl

lol whay about us big front and big bottomed?

9:08 am

Vicuna

Ph, yes, I would think the word could be pluralled legally, just not all on one craft.

9:08 am

Haz1558

You're just voluptuous.

9:08 am

Scarlet

LOL....

9:08 am

Vicuna

By "Ph" I meant "Oh."

9:08 am

72 Temple Owl

*slinks back to work*

9:08 am

Scarlet

LOL, TO...

9:09 am

Vicuna

Oh, don't slink away, TO! Stay and play! I'm feeling dreadfully flippant today.

9:09 am

Aloyisius

fireworks.. (-: once y'all helped me over the go6 hump, it went quickly

9:09 am

Scarlet

Feeling and spewing, Vi!

9:09 am

Vicuna

Yay for Aloy!

9:10 am

Haz1558

So, if we have pushmepullyou ships, and gravy trains, could a dessert plane fit in anywhere? This is a question for Atalante to solve.

9:10 am

Vicuna

"Spewing" Scarlet? I'm not sure I like the sound of that.... Are you making implications, madam?

9:10 am

Haz1558

Congratulations Aloy!

9:10 am

72 Temple Owl

hi aloy! and bye all!

9:10 am

Vicuna

Dessert can fit in anywhere, I believe.

9:10 am

Scarlet

A humor-spewer, funny one! ;-)

9:11 am

Aloyisius

hi TO.. flying through the Babble site! Bye, TO!

9:11 am

seano216k

hi babblers...does the last sh word begin sht??

9:11 am

Scarlet

Yahoo for Aloy...are you all ready for Thanksgiving...

9:11 am

Aloyisius

yes, seano

9:11 am

Vicuna

Flying is definitely the safest way to get through the site. Otherwise you might step in some humor. =P

9:12 am

Aloyisius

Daughter is doing Thanksgiving, Scarlet.. am baking some things.. meanwhile, I have been very busy assembling vegetarian menus.. have found some nice recipes.. how about you?

9:12 am

Scarlet

Some dreadfully serious folks wouldn't know humor if it were to tap them on the jaw... ice-queens we call them...

9:13 am

Scarlet

Very busy, and very happy, Aloy... I'll keep a good thought for you and yours!

9:13 am

Aloyisius

(I have two weeks of menus to do for Christmas)

9:14 am

Scarlet

Yikes... that's some long-range planning... I have decided (at the "demand" from daughter) to do the racks of lamb for T-giving, and the turkey for Christmastime.

9:14 am

Vicuna

This will be my first time doing Thanksgiving for the in'laws and I'm all in a tizzy I won't do it "right."

9:14 am

seano216k

strange one that! fireworks

9:14 am

Aloyisius

Ah, Scarlet.. your joy radiates.. bouncing it back .. sigh.. MEAT on the table!!!!

9:14 am

Haz1558

Congratulations seano!

9:14 am

Scarlet

Well done, seano!! Congratulations.

9:14 am

Vicuna

Not that they would give me a hard time. They are very nice, but I want to be the good daughter-in-law.

9:14 am

Aloyisius

yahoo, congrats to seano!

9:14 am

Vicuna

Yay for seano!

9:14 am

Scarlet

You]

9:15 am

Aloyisius

You will do it just perfectly, vicuna!

9:15 am

Scarlet

You will be just fine, Vicuna... it's hard to mess up a turkey... I AM happy, Aloy... nice that you could see that!

9:15 am

Haz1558

Then, Vicuna, do what you can, smile and be hospitable. If things go wrong, don't draw anyone's attention to it.

9:15 am

pabtrek

congrats seano

9:15 am

Atalante

oh I'm sure I could mess up a turkey. Just have strong flavoured gravy

9:16 am

bbnaz

hullo fellow babblers....back for the last 95. yep, that's right, 95 to go

9:16 am

Vicuna

The turkey's the only part I'm worried about, really. And the general timing of nothing being ready when it should be.

9:17 am

Scarlet

It actually makes itself, Vi... I brine it the night before and make a sausage/sage/craisin stuffing with tons of parsley and onions...

9:17 am

Haz1558

Make an approximate timetable, work backwards so you know when to start things off.

9:17 am

Aloyisius

when i first started hosting the holidays, i had to make schedules.. for years.. and then the microwave was invented, LOL..

9:17 am

Vicuna

And in case of disater we can always get Chinese take-out like in "A Christmas Story," right?

9:17 am

Vicuna

*disaster

9:18 am

Haz1558

It'll be grand, Vicuna.

9:18 am

Atalante

beans on toast would still be good on christmas day, its havign everyone there thats important

9:18 am

Haz1558

I suppose a diseater would be someone who rubbishes your food.

9:18 am

Aloyisius

correcto, Atalante!

9:18 am

Vicuna

When you say "makes itself," does that mean I can just play Babble all Thanksgiving day while the food leaps about the kitchen in self-preparation?

9:18 am

Atalante

at least you won't do what my mum did (hopefully) and give everyone poisoning with her christmas lunch one year!

9:19 am

Scarlet

I don't use the nuker much, except for a quick sautee of the onions before adding them to whatever... I use crock pots for the creamed onions and the gravy... and since I am making a wine reduction as the sauce for the lamb...no gravy needed...

9:19 am

Vicuna

No, there will be no disasters. I'm just being flippant!

9:19 am

Haz1558

Plenty of time to babble while the turkey's in the oven.

9:19 am

Haz1558

What strain of poisoning did she give?

9:19 am

Vicuna

Alas, that will be the time I will be making polite conversation!

9:20 am

Vicuna

Oh, everyone sick would definitely be a disaster! Yikes!

9:20 am

Atalante

ermmmm a strain that was strong enough for us all to only start remembering the 27th Dec

9:20 am

Scarlet

Oh, Ata... that's awful!

9:20 am

bbnaz

you ladies are making me very hungry

9:20 am

Jacula

FIREWORKS!:-) Reading all the chat, I'm ever so glad we don't have to bother with Thanksgiving as well as Christmas.

9:20 am

Atalante

actually, it was just funny. We all felt so awful, what can you do but laugh?

9:20 am

Aloyisius

all this talk of yummy food.. off to brunch methinks.. have a Wonderful Wednesday, all ! See you anon.. (-:

9:20 am

bichon

ni 6? anyone

9:20 am

Haz1558

It would be one way of ensuring you don't get asked to do Thanksgiving or Christmas lunch again.

9:20 am

Aloyisius

wahoo, wtg Jacula!!!!

9:21 am

bbnaz

Congratulations Jac!

9:21 am

Vicuna

Bye, Aloy!

9:21 am

Haz1558

9:21 am

Haz1558

Congratulations Jacula!

9:21 am

Scarlet

Ta-ta, Aloy!

9:21 am

Jacula

I'm off to put some of P's Jameson's in the Christmas cakes now. Then I have hutches to clean and then, I think, I'll have a soak in a hot bath.

9:21 am

Aloyisius

ni6: variation of someone with achondroplasia, a "little person"

9:22 am

Vicuna

Have fun, Jacula.

9:22 am

Haz1558

Does Paul know where his whiskey is going?

9:22 am

Jacula

Haz - Do you think Spangle would like a toy like the dog in my pic has?

9:22 am

Jacula

Haz - Yes re the whiskey. LOL.

9:22 am

Scarlet

Perfect clue, Aloy.. I had it, but that's original!! :-)

9:22 am

Atalante

how does Spangle look after her trim?

9:23 am

Haz1558

Spangle looks great and the banana and mango shampoo smells wonderful!

9:23 am

Scarlet

Must feed the beloved.... have a wonderful day, all. I'll be back later!

9:23 am

Haz1558

Jacula - I just realised a while ago that 'smiles' was the theme, so for once, Spangle doesn't have to be changed.

9:24 am

Vicuna

Goodbye, Scarlet.

9:24 am

Haz1558

Bye Scarlet.

9:24 am

Jacula

Indeed, no, Haz. Spangle's very smiley in that pic.

9:25 am

Atalante

banana and mango? wow!

9:25 am

Vicuna

Be careful Spangle doesn't get mistakenly devoured by a passing monkey!

9:25 am

Haz1558

I know. Apparently they use different shampoos depending on dog's skin condition.

9:25 am

Jacula

Well, I'd better go or it'll be time to make dinner before I get chance to have that bath. Happy Babbling!

9:26 am

Haz1558

Bye Jacula - enjoy the soak.

9:26 am

Vicuna

Goodbye, Jacula.

9:26 am

Jacula

Will do, Haz. Byeee.

9:27 am

bbnaz

bye Jac

9:27 am

Haz1558

It's a drizzly day outside - not very conducive to walking a fragrant dog, but I'm feeling the need for fresh air. Back shortly.

9:28 am

Atalante

have fun with the scented one!

9:28 am

Vicuna

Goodbye, Haz.
It has come to my attention that I am frittering my life away. I'd better do something marginally more useful beofre returning for the final words.

9:28 am

richp

How many words total, anyone?

herinfernallady

HI Haz

4:01 pm

Krista

My last yoga session was 2 weeks ago and I'm getting stiff again.

4:01 pm

Scrabbler

Hi HAzel...I am pondering your clue

4:01 pm

mo

I suffered years of back pain and finally went to a Chiropractioner and I aqm now free of pain.

4:01 pm

Haz1558

Hello al - just*peeking* in.

4:01 pm

herinfernallady

Krista it was fantastic.

4:02 pm

Haz1558

fi6/36 - squirm around in your chair and you'll be called this.

4:02 pm

Scrabbler

This would be easier of I had fi6, LOL

4:02 pm

Scrabbler

Wow, I just got 4 clues, TY, HAzel

4:02 pm

Krista

I love going to the chiro and getting my neck adjusted...crunch, crack....Hey Haz!

4:02 pm

herinfernallady

I tore both the misci ligiments in my right knee. 3 months of rehab fixed it 2 years of poor eating and no exercise has got me pretty much back to square one

4:02 pm

lizmac

Fireworks!

4:02 pm

Scrabbler

Yikes, be very careful with chiros!

4:03 pm

4:04 pm

stidmama

YAY liz!

4:04 pm

Krista

4:04 pm

4:04 pm

4:04 pm

herinfernallady

HI Ata i am back on my pc

4:04 pm

Krista

Sorry to hear that, herin.

4:04 pm

stidmama

I have been to chiropractors many times, scrabbler -- IF you get one who knows what is what... it is very helpful. I don't go regularly only because I can't afford it.

4:05 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams liz

4:05 pm

Voldemort

hi stidmama.

4:05 pm

4:07 pm

stidmama

4:07 pm

Krista

Owee Krista

4:08 pm

4:09 pm

carra

go6?

4:09 pm

Scrabbler

What are you reading, Mo?

4:09 pm

Haz1558

Enjoy your book, Mo. Good night.

4:09 pm

Krista

I feel like Linda Blair on The Exorcist when I walk outta there. ;)

4:09 pm

mo

good night Haz.

4:10 pm

Krista

Hi Kimber..I'm only 2nd degree, but yes.

4:10 pm

Scrabbler

go6 anyone?

4:10 pm

Krista

Not spewing pea soup, but moving my neck around, just to clarify.

4:10 pm

carra

gotit

4:10 pm

herinfernallady

HI Kimber and Carra and anyone else i miss

4:11 pm

Haz1558

go6 - go, a repeated consonant, and a repeated point in tennis.

4:11 pm

kimberblue

cool- i have been trained to the master level but rarely practice

4:12 pm

Haz1558

go6 sounds like the sort of eye protectors babies would wear for swimming.

4:12 pm

Scrabbler

I had ro reread your clue 4 times, but I figured it out finally. TY, HAzel

4:13 pm

Krista

Periwinkle (here on Babble) does it professionally. Have you met her? Pracitice is really the key. I've been doing it for uh..doing math..13 years now..really need to go back for 3rd/master level! I don't feel I've practiced enough and forget symbols if I don't use them.

4:13 pm

Haz1558

Nothing like making you work for a word!

4:13 pm

Scrabbler

gl5 please?

4:13 pm

Krista

She already has a strain, Haz. Be careful.

4:14 pm

Scrabbler

Wow, monkey just found it, LOL

4:14 pm

Haz1558

I know, Krista, but gentle exercise is good....

4:15 pm

Scrabbler

I made the mistake of doing a bit of outside work an hour ago--bringing ho4 into the shed, pulling out tomato plants...and may hip/pelvis didn't like that.

4:15 pm

kimberblue

no- i have not met periwinkle - i should talk to her- the symbols are ingrained in my brain- lol - My last intunement was by my dad, which was pretty cool- where do you live?

4:15 pm

Atalante

I cant find my last 3 grrrrrrrr

4:15 pm

Krista

Ata..you here?? Do you play Scrabulous on Facebook?

4:15 pm

Atalante

yup I'm here yup I do!

4:15 pm

Scrabbler

5 left for me, Ata

4:15 pm

Haz1558

It's a race to the line.

4:15 pm

Krista

Want to start a game with me?

4:16 pm

Atalante

sure!!!

4:17 pm

Krista

Your Dad, kimber..that's awesome. I don't think I ever saw a man in any of my classes. I'm in Maryland.

4:17 pm

Scrabbler

With great assistance from my monkey, I am done. TY all for clues.

4:17 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations Scrabbler.

4:17 pm

Krista

Do u want to start it, or should I (no preference here)? Finish here, of course, with only 3 to go.

4:18 pm

kimberblue

I'm in IL, but my dad was in FLA then- all of my teachers have been male

4:18 pm

Krista

No more yard work, Scrab!!!

4:18 pm

herinfernallady

Krista i tjhink i was playing with you in scablis but i am trying many things

4:18 pm

Atalante

4:18 pm

Scrabbler

I know, Krista, but we are expecting snow tomorrow and I had to get the yard ready.

4:19 pm

Krista

I started a game with you, herin. Take your time, that's why I like using it. I can't always sit here at the computer (tho it may seem otherwise).

4:19 pm

carra

icky snow

4:19 pm

kimberblue

snow???

4:19 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, and yet another grid that is too small to be fun!! 8-(

4:19 pm

kimberblue

It was 65 here today in the midwest- which is crazy warm for us

4:20 pm

Haz1558

Hello BDG. It's quite a nice grid, though.

4:20 pm

Krista

Well, take it easy now. :) We want you well enough to sit here with us without pain.

4:20 pm

cheeky

of6 please?

4:20 pm

carra

te 5.10 ? [both]

4:21 pm

Haz1558

of6 - an old fashioned way of saying 'most frequently'

4:21 pm

Krista

Hi Gwen..it's small, but challenging enough to be fun.

4:21 pm

carra

second te 5.10

4:21 pm

Haz1558

te5/10 - one's a plural, the other adds a vowel to the te4/4

4:21 pm

cheeky

thanks haz.

4:21 pm

herinfernallady

Krista i am trying to manage a weight lose thing at live journal i missed a member due to a swamp of crap email

4:21 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, snow! We had some last week, but it melted away by 2 days ago. Soon winter will come and stay until April.

4:22 pm

Haz1558

carra - the second one is the adding a vowel to the te4/4

4:22 pm

carra

ty.. it was the plural i needed :)

4:22 pm

Atalante

fireworks!

4:22 pm

Haz1558

No problem.

4:22 pm

Haz1558

Hurray!

4:22 pm

Krista

Ok, herin..whenever u get to play, the game will be there.

4:23 pm

carra

[3rd] st 5/10

4:23 pm

Haz1558

st5/10 - adds a vowel to the st4/4 that precedes it.

4:23 pm

Krista

the in-laws are here...catch you all later...Ata, look for a game soon

4:23 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

st + spielberg movie about an alien + plural letter

4:23 pm

Atalante

will do krista!

4:24 pm

herinfernallady

and the silly facebook is erroring

4:24 pm

Haz1558

Better the in-laws than the outlaws.

4:24 pm

kimberblue

scrabbler ar eyou still in practice for peds?

4:25 pm

herinfernallady

But with outlaws they can be arrested inlaws you have to put up with them

4:26 pm

Haz1558

But you might like the in-laws.

4:29 pm

MarkDF

What does the to4,4 word mean?

4:30 pm

Haz1558

To throw or pitch. If you click on the ? you usually get a definition.

4:31 pm

MarkDF

In this case it only leads to a word that's close, not the actual word.

4:32 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

click on the little button next to the word and defintion page opens

4:32 pm

Voldemort

how many words are there?

4:32 pm

MarkDF

117

4:32 pm

MarkDF

or, 80 more for me.

4:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

all dictionaries are flawed, including the online ones. (OED is online but costs a bundle to use, so I don't know if they count as the one exception)

4:33 pm

carra

ty haz for the st clue :)

4:34 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, carra.

4:34 pm

Atalante

bed time now. night night all!

4:34 pm

carra

not getting the of clue.. any others?

4:34 pm

Haz1558

Good night Atalante. Sleep well. Hope the news of Imran is better tomorrow!

4:35 pm

Haz1558

of6 - think of the word that means frequently, and which begins with of. Now take off the last letter and make it a superlative.

4:36 pm

Atalante

hopefully!

4:36 pm

carra

ty

4:36 pm

Haz1558

Night, Atalante!

4:36 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, carra.

4:37 pm

carra

ni 6?

4:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

eegad, running late, gotta fly, bye all!

4:38 pm

Haz1558

ni6 - if it began with an m, it would describe a very small person. When it begins with f (as in fi6/36) it means a squirmer or wriggler. The structure is the same.

4:38 pm

Haz1558

Bye BDG - hope you make your appointment.

4:46 pm

carra

sucha great cluer haz ty!

4:46 pm

herinfernallady

Sorry dang community sucked me into its mighty internets

4:47 pm

Haz1558

Glad to help, carra.

4:48 pm

herinfernallady

Thanks Haz for clues i was roaming

4:48 pm

Haz1558

That's okay.

4:49 pm

carra

fa 5.16 [2nd] & lo7 ?

4:50 pm

Haz1558

lo7 - first three letters of the piece of wood, the last letters are the same as 'obtains'

4:50 pm

Haz1558

fa5/16- a term of disparagement for an overweight person.

4:51 pm

Haz1558

Or, indeed the last letters of fi7/52 I for the lo7)

4:52 pm

Haz1558

lo7 is also an anagram of go7/44.

4:55 pm

carra

got the lo7 ty

4:55 pm

Haz1558

Okay, time I was off. Happy babbling!

4:56 pm

7:07 pm

praise2him

LOL

7:08 pm

evanonut

oklahoma, but there's nothing to do in oklahoma...oh wait, there's nothing to do here either

7:08 pm

big excitement here is the mysterious death of one of our cows.

7:08 pm

praise2him

7:09 pm

praise2him

well I have to say there is definitely more to do here than in the little podunk towns that I lived in in Oklahoma

7:09 pm

evanonut

oklahoma isn't on my list of states to visit, that's for sure

7:09 pm

praise2him

LOL wouldn't be for me either

LOL

7:11 pm

praise2him

one thing about it tho

7:11 pm

praise2him

I think that the people are friendlier there than here

7:12 pm

evanonut

people here i think are generally friendly, if you give them a chance, and smile first.

7:13 pm

praise2him

yeah some are

7:13 pm

praise2him

but I guess I tend to run into those that you smile at and they look at you like you are crazy!

7:13 pm

praise2him

LOL

7:14 pm

evanonut

that's when you pinch their cheeks and say "aren't you the cute one"

7:14 pm

praise2him

LOL

7:15 pm

praise2him

guess everyone must be working on the grid

7:15 pm

praise2him

7:16 pm

praise2him

don't get me wrong

7:16 pm

praise2him

I have met a lot of nice people here

7:16 pm

which so 5/16?

8:40 pm

jesdraggon

plural of the 4/7, or 4/7+vowel

8:40 pm

pam

Jes, is there a med equivalent to valium for kittens? A friend's kitten fell and has pins in his tibia, and is he well managed for pain, but seems to need some calming down...

8:40 pm

pam

Ok, glad it didn't offend, jes, LOL

8:41 pm

jesdraggon

actually, there is valium for cats...but it's pretty short acting so not really useful for that situation

8:41 pm

jesdraggon

why would that offend me?

8:41 pm

pam

Wll, jex could be just wrong, LOL

8:41 pm

pam

short acting like xanax, because you are right, that wouldn't help...

8:42 pm

Habes

NM. Got it. Thanks.

8:42 pm

jesdraggon

well no, it's actually just valium. same drug.

8:42 pm

Mom

hello everyone, a very late start for me today.

8:42 pm

pam

He is 3.5 months old and fell off a granite cliff--not very nimble,... and he was bruised all over, in hospital for 4 days....

8:42 pm

tygerbryght

hey, mom

8:43 pm

jesdraggon

but we only have injectable at our clinic, and that wears off in about 20 mintues. i'm sure you could use oral, but i don't know what the dose would be or how effective it would be.

8:43 pm

Mom

Hi Tyger

8:43 pm

pam

Oh, right, I forget that about valium (short-acting) part...

8:43 pm

tygerbryght

poor baby kitty

8:43 pm

pam

thanks, tyger

8:43 pm

doxy1lover

poor kitty. needs lots of TLC

8:44 pm

jesdraggon

might tell her to ask her vet about some acepromazine, but some cats get really cranky on that.

8:44 pm

doxy1lover

hi mom

8:44 pm

pam

I will ask them to ask their vets--at Angell Memorial, so you would think they would think of it...

8:44 pm

8:44 pm

Wyrd

i heard you can give cats st johns wort

8:45 pm

tygerbryght

I'd be very scared to give a cat any sort of herbal, without a doctor's supervision

8:45 pm

Mom

Hi Doxy

8:45 pm

tygerbryght

I know you're trying to help, Wyrd, but cats just have the most frighteningly delicate systems

8:45 pm

jesdraggon

why do you hate ace? it can be very useful, used correctly

8:46 pm

pam

Seen too many dogs get beyond hyper and very reactive, jes...

8:54 pm

Mom

Hi Ren xx

8:54 pm

tygerbryght

I understand. I've had a rough day today, so I'm fully equipped to empathize :)

8:55 pm

renfield

8:55 pm

Mom

how are you?

8:55 pm

doxy1lover

hi ren

8:55 pm

tygerbryght

hey, ren. I *lurve* Maine Coons. Friends used to have one

8:55 pm

renfield

hey doxy!

8:56 pm

jesdraggon

the problem your friend is going to run into though, pam, is do they really want to drug the kitten until it's healed?

8:56 pm

renfield

doing good mom- working - well actually i just took a break to score some words :)

8:56 pm

renfield

i luv 'em too tyger!

8:56 pm

harpjane

8:58 pm

renfield

i'm working on taxes

8:58 pm

tygerbryght

hey, carlee

8:58 pm

Mom

not on this end here. Got a late start

8:58 pm

jesdraggon

perhaps they could get a big dog crate and keep the kitten in it when they can't watch him, so there's nothing to climb or jump off of?

8:58 pm

harpjane

we give our maine coon "rescue remedy" a homeopathic calming tincture, he is so high strung, it helps a little

8:59 pm

pam

That's an idea, jex, thanks!

8:59 pm

pam

Oh, thanks, harp--that's an idea...

9:01 pm

tygerbryght

glad to see some people are coming up with ideas for the poor baby kitty. what's his name, pam? :)

9:02 pm

jesdraggon

rescue remedy is usually ok (assuming you buy the actual one, not a cheap knock-off) but use it sparingly. "all-natural" does NOT equal "harmless".

9:02 pm

pam

Smudge, tyger==for the smudge on his nose

9:02 pm

jesdraggon

I'm not saying herbal stuff is useless-hell, most of our drugs are based on plants-but it's totally unregulated and you have no guarantee that what's on the label is what's in the bottle.

9:03 pm

pam

One of his moms is a critical care RN, so she will be very cautious, jex

9:04 pm

pam

*jes

9:04 pm

pam

My own senior cat LOVES catnip, so when she seems more ornery than usual, she gets a dose, LOL

9:05 pm

jesdraggon

heh. is ok, pam. you can call me that if it's easier ;)

9:05 pm

tygerbryght

that's the reason I mentioned catnip earlier, Pam. some cats get hyper on it; some cats zonk out. but you can't tell in advance which way a given cat will react

9:05 pm

pam

I am seemingly a lazy typist, so thanks!!!!

9:06 pm

tygerbryght

if Smudge were known to be the zonk out variety, catnip would solve the problem nicely

9:07 pm

pam

I will ask them about the catnip

9:07 pm

jesdraggon

no worries

9:07 pm

Mom

Halfway mark for me, time for bed. Good night and pleasant dreams to all of you.

11:48 pm

moolingwa

evening all

11:49 pm

momof5

I did. It is very intriguing. I had a childhood trauma that haunts me to this day. I avoid even thinking of thos 's' things if I can help it.

11:49 pm

jillibus

Hi moo!

11:50 pm

moolingwa

hey jillibeans

11:51 pm

jillibus

Momof5, I was lucky to have read that story when I was very young and never had a childhood trauma like whatever yours was

11:51 pm

momof5

Hi moo.

11:51 pm

jillibus

Moo, I like jillibeans -- makes me feel all cosy :)

11:52 pm

momof5

I think it's mind over matter. My mind keeps me in the fear.

11:52 pm

jillibus

An aunt of mine had a dog called jillibee

11:52 pm

moolingwa

hey mo2

11:53 pm

bananafour

ge5/14...the second one, anyone?

11:53 pm

momof5

It was actually a lot of mixed up circumstances in a very little girl mind that made me terrified of 's'. A cousin who was hurt and rumor that it was a 's' that got him. I was 6 at the time. Nightmares for weeks and am afraid of 's' to this day.

11:54 pm

moolingwa
