12:26 am

bbnaz

they say that Anheuser Busch has so many clydesdale horses so as to fill their beer bottles.

12:26 am

cybernan

cy 7

12:30 am

12:33 am

lynxxx

nite Flosey & C'nan

12:33 am

herinfernallady

Bb people think the pigs swill Fosters is the best. I love Cascade and the brewery is awesome. All water used to clean the bottles is reused in the main house's gardens, all broken glass is recycled, all the left over hops and yeast slag is feed to pigs and horses

12:33 am

herinfernallady

NIght Flosey

12:33 am

bbnaz

ooh jilli IPAs are good

12:33 am

12:34 am

herinfernallady

Not really. I like Bees Nez (knees)

12:34 am

bbnaz

12:34 am

herinfernallady

I dont drink beer as a thing but a sample every now and then is nice

12:34 am

jillibus

night flosey and nan!

12:34 am

bbnaz

well i am old and acid reflux is reminding me that alcohol is not my friend...........

12:35 am

bbnaz

but a good ale is delish

12:35 am

lynxxx

not old bbnaz!

12:35 am

jillibus

bb, I'm older but not as old as the Queen Mum was and she liked her daily martini(s)

12:36 am

herinfernallady

BB Did your daughter enjoy her birthday. Also the Queens mum liked her booze

12:36 am

bbnaz

yeah but i have a partial hyetal hernia and acid reflux. makes too much liquor not so good. too much can vary from a glass of wine to a shot of tequila (in moderation)

12:36 am

bbnaz

Clara had a grand birthday. She is most excited that she can now buy tickets for R movies

12:37 am

herinfernallady

ok thats kinda cool if thats her thing

12:37 am

jillibus

oh my, what a goal!

12:38 am

bbnaz

she is quite a knowledgeable movie goer and actually a very good girl so I am not too concerned about her choices of film. She also has looked old enough to go since she was 15.......and she never cheated even when her friends did.

12:38 am

DRBERNABO

cy7x2

12:39 am

bbnaz

thank you dr

12:39 am

jillibus

lol, DrB -- I only have a cy4!

12:39 am

FranMag

12:39 am

herinfernallady

Thats a good thing i couldn't get into a pub until i had ID

12:39 am

bbnaz

she is also trying to finagle a used car from her papa...but that remains to be seen

12:40 am

bbnaz

well she has no taste for spirits either except an occasional sip of mine. trust me I am not being naive. i lived waaaaaaaaaaay over the age when I was her age.

12:40 am

jillibus

well, just got a cy7/40

12:40 am

DRBERNABO

they are both cy7/40

12:40 am

FranMag

they are very similar jilli

12:41 am

bbnaz

would somebody please put the t tiles next to each other!

12:41 am

herinfernallady

BB are you trying JETi to are you?

12:42 am

jillibus

DRBERNABO

herinfernallady

12:43 am

bbnaz

good transport there then?

12:43 am

herinfernallady

Yes and i have never had the need

12:44 am

bbnaz

unfortunately there is lousy transport here so a car is quite necessary. shame actually as I have lived in cities that had excellent transport and never had to drive. much nicer

12:44 am

jillibus

bb, I had my first booze, a Cuba Libre, when I was 14, at the Cafe Rouge in the Hotel Pennsylvania, NYC (PEnnsylvania 6-5000) but you're not old enough to remember Glenn Miller...

12:45 am

herinfernallady

OH Jill did you have the pleasure of hearing him live?

12:45 am

renfield

,y cousin taught me to drive when i was 12 so i could drive him and his friends home from the juke joints

12:45 am

bbnaz

nope not the first time around however my phone number growing up was AMherst 6-6925. And other prefixes were CRestwood, MUrray, WIndsor to name a few

12:46 am

jillibus

Yep, and Dorsey and the young Sinatra etc -- danced to them

12:46 am

renfield

whoa jilli!!!

12:46 am

herinfernallady

WOw.

12:46 am

bbnaz

cuba libras. my parents would have a cocktail every evening when my dad got home. my mum would have a cuba libra. it was my drink of choice for many many years.

12:46 am

herinfernallady

Totally cool.

12:47 am

renfield

what's a cuba libra?

12:47 am

jillibus

Rum and coke, ren

12:47 am

loredana

those were the days hey Jilli

12:47 am

bbnaz

rum and coke with lime

12:47 am

jillibus

ah yes, I remember them well...

12:47 am

renfield

ah ha!

12:48 am

bbnaz

my dad will be 85 in feb and my mum will be 80 in feb. so that music got plenty of playing time well

12:48 am

bbnaz

*too

12:48 am

jillibus

trouble was I was wartime and not many boys around :(

12:49 am

jillibus

bb, your parents are my age

12:49 am

bbnaz

you should be writing these thoughts down jill or talking into a recorder. very very important stories and memories there.

12:50 am

bbnaz

my mum grew up in los angeles and my dad in phoenix. they met after the war whilst at university.

12:50 am

jillibus

I tried with my grandkids, bb and bored them to tears

12:50 am

herinfernallady

Jill you need to write down these wonderful memories

12:50 am

lynxxx

yes Jilli! (again!)

12:50 am

bbnaz

damn the torpedos -- straight ahead!

12:50 am

herinfernallady

You surely wouldn't bore me with the Nana tales Jill

12:51 am

bbnaz

i PROMISE you that they will want them when you are not here to tell them.

12:51 am

lynxxx

forget the grandkids Jilli - do it for us!

12:51 am

jillibus

well, I'm running out of time!

12:51 am

renfield

i would not be bored jilli

12:51 am

herinfernallady

I used to listen to my Grannie over and over about Africa and the war and meeting Grandpa and her first jobs

12:51 am

bbnaz

so start talking into that recorder. carry it around and everytime something recomembers....talk into it.

12:52 am

bbnaz

i drive around with one and have my dad tell stories into when we drive around this town that is now a huge metropolis. his stories are priceless!

12:52 am

loredana

same here Jilli i was always asking my grandparents about their days the young ones today seem to be engaged in their own wants and desires shame but it looks like us babblers would all appreciate your stories

12:52 am

jillibus

I never knew my grandparents but now I know how very interesting and unusual they were -- have been acquiring pix and info for Geni.com from other family members.

12:53 am

herinfernallady

Jill its like how language has changed and people think that its ok to politically correct it instead of leaving it alone as a reminder of what we had.

12:53 am

bbnaz

or call your local university or historical society. they will have someone who will come out and take an oral history from you.

12:53 am

jillibus

Holy smoke!

12:55 am

bbnaz

fortunately the next generation in our family is just as eager as I am. I have four siblings and 6 nieces and nephews........we have traced our family back in the US on just one side to 1621........quite interesting to read about how they moved after the civil war and came across the country. All of us have worked on genealogical stuff and there are self published family books.

12:55 am

herinfernallady

What Jill

12:55 am

bbnaz

DO IT NOW!

12:55 am

bbnaz

okay off soap box.

12:55 am

loredana

jilli has started something lol maybe a nostalgia club

12:55 am

jillibus

Language -- yes -- when I arrived at an NY high school as a Brit and used the N word (which was a friendly one as far as I knew) I was severely reprimanded and humiliated in front of the whole class.

12:56 am

lynxxx

wow bbnaz - thats impressive

12:56 am

jillibus

that's great bb -- keep it up!

12:57 am

bbnaz

it is fascinating and I am just sorry that my grandparents are dead and I cannot query them I can only rely upon my parents memories of the stories (which of course are never entirely factual, especially if trouble was involved). Going through papers of the estates has been fascinating.

12:58 am

bbnaz

One great uncle was arrested for bootlegging whilst in law school at harvard. he had my grandfather help him out of jail and he returned to california where he finished his law school at stanford. you can be THAT was never talked about whilst he was alive.

12:58 am

herinfernallady

Thats what i am talking about. People were labeled strongly by their colour or religion but that was what was done. To deny this past is really not allowing us to discuss why. Enid Blighton's Bessie was changed to Tessie as Bessie was a common name for a African American house made. Dick was changed to Rick as well DIck is amusing but it was short for Richard and Fanny (likely short for Frances or Francine) was changed to Franny

12:59 am

bbnaz

Now see herin, I ask you. If a person who is an African American moves back to Africa, do they become an African American African?

12:59 am

jillibus

O crud, lady

1:00 am

jillibus

lol bb!!!

1:00 am

herinfernallady

Mmm. I am the one that looks for pre Political Correct books as i find them fascinating. Language has always been fascinating to me

1:00 am

jillibus

What's the matter with Negro? It has dignity!

1:00 am

bbnaz

I have trouble with blacks in America referring to themselves as AA. It would be like me calling myself Irish/Welsh American

1:01 am

renfield

my aunt fanny married a cherokee indian named monk

1:01 am

bbnaz

I only had my daughter read classic fiction that was early printings, not the later sanitised versions.

1:01 am

herinfernallady

BB you say AA and i think of ALcholics Annon

1:01 am

bbnaz

well i was taking a short cut.

1:01 am

herinfernallady

Reni that sounds interesting

1:02 am

bbnaz

1:02 am

bbnaz

see you all later

1:02 am

jillibus

I've mentioned this before so stop me if you've heard this one. Why do recent versions of Little Black Sambo picture him as an African instead of an East Indian which is what he was?

1:03 am

bbnaz

can you even find a story of Little Black Sambo anymore?

1:03 am

herinfernallady

My Grannie went to Africa after 45 they had house boys and everything. my Grandfather was a Sargent Major in the army I will never know what he did in the war as he was part of the Securities Commision.

1:03 am

bbnaz

He was an Indian boy in story books

1:04 am

bbnaz

bbnaz

let's just say that it is late, i have to ride and i firmly believe in the JFK statement that we should judge a person by his acts not his color........

1:06 am

LadyScorpio24

1:06 am

herinfernallady

http://tinyurl.com/2kf4gc
Lady i have to agree with this one

1:11 am

FranMag

hi scorpio!

1:11 am

FranMag

lore, are you a scorpio too?

1:11 am

LadyScorpio24

lady.. the problem was that someone at work thought the song was demeaning, and it became a very polarized issue

1:11 am

Atalante

she's been around, fran. she was here last night

1:12 am

LadyScorpio24

hi fran

1:12 am

FranMag

hi ata! i must be missing her then.

1:13 am

FranMag

oh the poor baby with her cone on!!

1:13 am

Atalante

ooo!

1:13 am

FranMag

rennie, doesn't ata have the most beautiful work?

1:14 am

herinfernallady

Scorpio call me Herin. Ok also Ten little Indians was also called 'Tell little Nigros' That was changed to Indians. Also there is several darker lyics aboutwith that song

1:14 am

renfield

that was sooo much fun! you have some great fotos!

1:14 am

herinfernallady

herinfernallady

She got desexed

1:15 am

herinfernallady

I have stoner cat video too

1:16 am

Atalante

new conehead icon

1:16 am

jillibus

lady, just finished reading that wiki piece about the origins of Jimmy Crack Corn -- VERY interesting!

1:16 am

LadyScorpio24

Herin, just looked at the url you sent.. the funny part about the whole work situation is that a week after the employee was formally disciplined the Smothers Brothers sang the song on the Grammy award show

1:17 am

herinfernallady

Flask was about at 1230ishpm grid time on yesterdays grid.

1:17 am

jillibus

Scorpio -- did I ask you before? Where in Queens?

1:18 am

LadyScorpio24

Jilli - Flushing, work at JFK

1:18 am

herinfernallady

Oh dear (head desk) some people need to chill out. If you find something offensive state your reasons in a manner that is logical. Then bitch like heck if the person continues

1:19 am

jillibus

I used to live in Forest Hills Gardens. Went to the Trylon and Perisphere World's Fair in 1940 :D

1:20 am

LadyScorpio24

Jilli -- you really need to write or record your life experiences, they are fascinating!! I danced at the 1964 World's Fair

1:21 am

jillibus

and my d-i-l (a scorpio) danced at the 1967 Montreal Expo

1:22 am

LadyScorpio24

Meant to ask you before is your d-i-l an Oct or Nov Scorp?

1:24 am

renfield

herin - not only corporations, but even small companies carry anti harassment insurance to portect them from just such incidents - and the insurance is not cheap!

1:25 am

renfield

*protect them even

1:27 am

herinfernallady

Ren I was bullied and harassed at my work for 2 years and i went nuts literally. I think what i am getting at is if you find something offensive tell that person. IF that person is a complete senseless dolt then the super and if it continues then yes go and tell the super until something is done about it

1:28 am

renfield

that is the proper procedure to follow

1:29 am

herinfernallady

And i am glad the company i worked for got sued for their behaviour by someone else and taken to court about mine

1:29 am

renfield

i hope your supervisor, or hr did something about the harassment you suffered

1:30 am

Atalante

oh yay! the tapeworm is back!

1:31 am

FranMag

ata both ways and it's joined by the ringworm also. :-)

1:31 am

herinfernallady

Um Nope he was a sexist pig which is half the reason i quit/got fired. They wouldn't let you have a pee break for more than 2 minutes

1:32 am

LadyScorpio24

Harassament is certainly a problem in the workplace. Unfortunately in my experience too many people claim they are being harassed when all we want is for them to do the job they are getting paid for.

1:32 am

jillibus

scorp -- d-i-l is Nov 19 -- what are you? (Sooy about the delayed response -- Her Feline Majesty requested a cuddle)

1:32 am

Atalante

ringworm? *thinks*

1:33 am

FranMag

ringworm, athlete's foot, whatever you want to call it.

1:33 am

LadyScorpio24

Jilli - I am an October (24) Scorp

herinfernallady

Purring her head off. Poor baby.

5:09 am

Fishbulb

5:10 am

herinfernallady

She got desexed yesterday and is not amused

5:11 am

Fishbulb

awwww.... i had my bunny done a little while ago... not a happy site a hobbling, grumpy bunny. They make you feel so guilty huh? Even though its for their own good!

5:12 am

herinfernallady

finding all the sore spots on her i didn't know that rabbits could be fixed?

5:13 am

Fishbulb

yeah, girl rabbits are particularly prone to ovarian cancers and tend to die young if they're not sorted. She seems ok now, but in a silent protest seems to be shedding all of her summer coat all at once, its like a winter wonderland in my living room at the moment. lol

5:14 am

herinfernallady

Ok. THats a smart idea

5:14 am

herinfernallady

She is chasing her own shadow. I think the Reiki helped.

5:15 am

herinfernallady

And yes i feel like a meanie doing it

5:17 am

Fishbulb

Bless. It is the responsible thing to do though. Stops the tom cats fighting over her too when she's in heat. Lots of fusses over the next couple of days and you'll be the best of friends again.

5:17 am

herinfernallady

Oh yes i am the cuddle monster. have been very careful in how she is picked up. I am also $315 out of pocket

5:19 am

Fishbulb

Ouch! The bunny cost Â£120, I guess that's about $250! Its a lot of money to spend to make yourself unliked for a few days!

5:22 am

sprite

6:06 am

periwinkle

6:06 am

herinfernallady

Bye LIdeo Enjoy

6:06 am

periwinkle

Yea for Reiki!!

6:06 am

periwinkle

I use Reiki on my cat all the time

6:07 am

sprite

reiki rocks.

6:10 am

periwinkle

herin, didn't know you did Reiki

6:11 am

sprite

Have been a reiki master for over 20 years now... amazing releases of the old traditions now from japan lately... wonderful. It works like a charm.

6:11 am

herinfernallady

I dont usually but she was in so much pain and discomfort i had to do it

6:11 am

periwinkle

didn't know that about you sprite :-) or herin

6:12 am

periwinkle

have been a Reiki Master for 7 years

6:12 am

herinfernallady

Wow Sprite. I didn't know that.

6:13 am

sprite

doesn't often come up in conversation, lol. I always get very tired of people who think they have to 'revert' everybody to reiki, so I tend to keep quiet and just do it.

6:13 am

herinfernallady

Poor baby kitty had desexing and microchiping (which doesn't hurt them (sorry my butt it doesn't) she had a hot spot on the microchip injection site and on her back

6:15 am

periwinkle

seem to be lots of people on Babble who are intersted in Babble, I never "push" Reiki, people are either interested or not

6:16 am

sprite

exactly. It is not a believe or anything, no need to go around converting people. People usually get interested when they see some results.

6:16 am

sprite

lol @ peri... lots and lots of babblers who are interested in babble indeed... :P

6:17 am

featherbee

how do you "do" reiki?

6:17 am

featherbee

oh and morning!

6:17 am

herinfernallady

Well i have seen the results tonight thats for sure. Poor baby kitty was all dead now she is moving about like before.

6:17 am

herinfernallady

HI Feather.

6:17 am

sprite

it is channelling energy, featherbee, and hi :)
Either by putting your hands on, or even over a distance.

6:18 am

periwinkle

Reiki is learned from a REiki master.

6:18 am

sprite

and it can also be a spiritual way of learning and growing, if you make it part of your everyday life.

6:18 am

periwinkle

it is very effective for stress reduction and pain relief

6:18 am

periwinkle

and it works!!!

6:19 am

featherbee

sounds interesting

6:19 am

sprite

actually, what a teacher does is helping you reconnect with the energyflow that was your birthright to begin with.

6:19 am

featherbee

also sounds like it ties in with yoga somewhat

6:20 am

periwinkle

sprite, wish you lived closer, we couild do Reiki together :-)

6:20 am

sprite

it does, in the sense that Yoga also focuses on the energy flows in the body.

6:20 am

periwinkle

*could*

6:20 am

sprite

would be great, peri

6:20 am

periwinkle

well, we could send Reik to each other, sprite

6:21 am

periwinkle

*Reiki* even

6:21 am

sprite

we can, peri. Want me to add you to my weekly 'broadcast'? :)

6:21 am

sprite

fireworks :)

6:21 am

periwinkle

I don't know sprite, what would you say about me?

6:21 am

periwinkle

yay for sprite

6:21 am

featherbee

anyone care to 'broadcast' some healing energy my way? been sick since last friday! i'll take whatever i can get!

6:22 am

featherbee

yay sprite!

6:22 am

sprite

lol peri, nothing... I would just hold you in my thoughts while letting reiki flow.

6:22 am

sprite

of course, feather, with pleasure!

6:22 am

periwinkle

yes please sprite

6:22 am

featherbee

thank you!

6:22 am

periwinkle

I will do the same for you sprite

6:22 am

herinfernallady

With the monster kitty tonight i used tonight was a massage to see what sore points then focused on that. And no one has taught me either

herinfernallady

Hi Herin...and all Saturday Babblers

6:32 am

sprite

ok, featherbee, energy on its way to you... will repeat daily for a couple of days. You might want to drink a lot of water and if you get tired, try to rest if you can. *hug*

6:32 am

periwinkle

feather, will send energy later today, got to go, bbl

6:33 am

sprite

that's fine, lady. Just make sure you never give away your 'own' energy, and you'll be fine. Reiki is a healing and transformational system which has to be learned, but the energy channel is your birthright.

6:34 am

herinfernallady

No i don't i just make sure its my cat only. I do tarot readings too but not for $$$ and rarely anyone else.

6:35 am

periwinkle

byee

Bye Peri

when a mother picks up her child after it hurt itself, she is passing on energy too. It is a natural thing.

6:36 am

herinfernallady

That is true. You would be not surprised at how much she has altered in the last 30min.

6:36 am

sprite

ok, I have to go, wish your kitty the best, lady. *hugs* to all who want them. Hope to see you tomorrow morning, but not sure I can make it.
Otherwise... see you guys Friday night :)

he's had the infection for over a week

9:18 am

Haz1558

Good morning/afternoon all.

9:19 am

Scrabbler

**I went out to get my newspaper** Is he on oral or IV antibiotics?

9:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi Hazel!

9:19 am

carleekat

hi haz

9:19 am

carleekat

oral...

9:19 am

o-o

Hello, Haz

9:19 am

Haz1558

Hello there!

9:21 am

flosey

hi Haz

9:22 am

Haz1558

Hello flosey - bit of a slow grid today.

9:22 am

carleekat

why scrabs?

9:23 am

Scrabbler

Better to have just a regular bladder infection that can be treated with oral AB than a more serious kidney infection requiring IV AB

9:23 am

Scrabbler

CArlee, is his urine periodically tested or can he sense discomfort?

9:23 am

carleekat

I don't understand..I watched him do cathetar...its serile method

9:24 am

carleekat

debris in urine... and its uncomfortable

9:24 am

carleekat

but until he left..yes tested..ow home for good

9:24 am

carleekat

now *

9:24 am

Scrabbler

Because his bladder is not emptying as frequently and urine that is stagnant can allow bacteria to thrive.

9:25 am

carleekat

he's drinking loads and doing cathetar every 4 hours

9:25 am

carleekat

and gone through a jug of cranberry

9:25 am

Scrabbler

People that require catheterizing regularly (4 times daily, I am guessing) usually get "colonization" of their bladders with bacyeria.

9:26 am

carleekat

he was 4 times..he's upped to 6

9:26 am

Scrabbler

Great, carlee! e.g. I saw one of my kiddoes in the office yesterday. She is 6 and has spina bifida at T10. She gets cathed 4 times daily but always has some bacteria in her urine and periodically gets UTIs

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Today's Babble Medical Lesson = Urinary Tract Problems

9:27 am

carleekat

so just increase fluids...and more cranberry?

9:30 am

Scrabbler

Increase fluids to keep the urine dilute and cath more often to flush the bladder.

9:30 am

smaller

speaking of fluids, i have an idea. i have no medical training, but i've maintained a steady diet of lattes and chocolate and I'm quite healthy! I'm now thinking of adjusting my dog's diet to similar.

9:30 am

Scrabbler

Even though sterile technique is used the urethra always has some bacteria present and they can be introduced into the bladder with cathing.

9:32 am

Scrabbler

Haha, smaller! I am struggling now with deciding what to have for breakfast--protein-based (cheese, tomato omelet) vs carbo-city pumpkin pancakes which is what I am craving.

9:32 am

Scrabbler

I am hoping someone will give me permission to have the pancakes.

9:32 am

smaller

wow! the sugar low from the pancakes might be worth it.

9:32 am

grant

Granted

9:33 am

o-o

iatrogenics is a constant concern

9:33 am

smaller

hahahahaha, grant.how punny

9:33 am

Scrabbler

Grant the Granter has granted me permission. TY! You now have the title of Official Babble Granter, Grant. LOL, I am cracking myself up.

9:34 am

smaller

do you put maple syrup on those or just butter?

9:34 am

brendiboo

i still need the nine letter word

9:35 am

Scrabbler

I think just butter as I do not want to mask the pumpkin flavor.

9:35 am

o-o

is spinal bifida life-threatening?

9:35 am

flosey

brendi - oc5/12 + operatic song

Flask1

Spina bifida is something people are born with Babrab

9:36 am

In utero and after birth it can be, BR---open back lesion, hydrocephalus requiring shunting, bladder infections, blood clots in paralyzed legs.

9:45 am

o-o

te 7 --- a rental estate in land

9:45 am

Atalante

the cut had all scabbed over and the scab had fallen off so I let her out of the lampshade for 5 minutes. I looked at her at the end of the 5 minutes, the original cut was opened up again, and a 2" square section of her ear was bleeding and furless!

9:46 am

Haz1558

And now your husband is endlessly repeating 'I told you so, I told you so.'

9:46 am

Atalante

yup!

9:46 am

Atalante

and she has a vet appt on monday morning

9:47 am

Frances

Poor pooch Ata.

9:47 am

Atalante

the fur is literally just falling off her ear :(

9:47 am

Babs1

ouch, Atalante! got any aloe gel?

9:47 am

Scrabbler

I cannot keep up with the clues, but I found many, TY

9:47 am

Haz1558

You're either going to have to get the claws trimmed, or make her wear a boot.

9:47 am

Scrabbler

tenant

9:47 am

Atalante

both equally amusing choices

9:48 am

Scrabbler

Darn, as you can see I found another. ***trodding off to the penalty box, hoping to find dark chocolate**

9:48 am

Frances

Make that four boots Haz. Those doggy paws can reach everywhere!

9:48 am

Atalante

yup, babs. aloe and antiseptic cream. I think that'll keep her going till monday till the vet can look see

9:48 am

o-o

have you tried super glue?

9:49 am

Atalante

I think she's got mange or something else equally unpleasant sounding. or leprosy for dogs

9:50 am

ddb4nana

Is there a way to thank Brandyjack for his list? I miss Lickety more than words can tell, but honestly don't think I could finish without at least having Brandyjack to help out!

9:50 am

smaller

we need dark chocolate "granted" in the penalty box. hint hint

9:50 am

grant

Done

9:50 am

Haz1558

Has the vet not checked for those? I thought it was a cut resulting from an injury - is it from her scratching? But surely there would be more than one itchy place in that case.

9:51 am

smaller

hahahaha

9:51 am

o-o

post a thank you, ddb4nana

9:51 am

harpjane

i agree ddb

9:51 am

ddb4nana

Where?

9:51 am

o-o

same place you got the clues

9:51 am

Atalante

I thought it was from a cut. It looked like it was from a cut, but now its spreading .... didnt see the vet last time, just got a collar from them. Oh, now I feel so bad. But it literally was just a cm long cut.

9:52 am

Haz1558

Don't worry too much, it'll be fine in the end.

9:52 am

Frances

We used te tree oil on the dog when he had itchy patches and falling hair. Worked a treat.

9:53 am

Frances

Make that tee tree oil.

9:54 am

Atalante

I know ::( but my poor babe ... :(

9:55 am

Thank heavens it's a small grid today. I told my husband I was feeling a bit listless...(he didn't get it.)

9:55 am

harpjane

could someone clue the last an7? not the blood disorder?

9:55 am

Haz1558

The vet will be able to diagnose properly on Monday, you'll get the right treatment and all will be well. In the meantime, I feel sorry for you. Reproachful looks from a spaniel are bad enough, a reproachful husband is possibly worse!

9:56 am

You are getting clues, good ones. We can't just tell you the word. We know you are a kid.

10:28 am

but I have a thought that if I work with the big words first than work my way down than i will get the more little ones faster

Well, certainly hair being pulled.

Haz1558

THIS is why people don't like to try to give clues to you, French fry. Most people get a clue straight away, you need multiple attempts and spoon feeding and you still try to make out that we are nasty to you. Look for smaller words - you're a kid, after all.

10:56 am

garyandjulie

is it me being dense or is this grid slow to finish after the first 40 words or so ?

10:57 am

Haz1558

It's a bit of a picky, poky grid, but not that many strange words.

10:57 am

flosey

I'm down to 9 but head is feeling very dense - perhaps should stop for breakfast

10:57 am

o-o

this grid quite facile

10:57 am

garyandjulie

i am almost slapping my forehead when i find the words wondering how i missed them

10:57 am

garyandjulie

wasn't sure if it was me or the fact the kids were noisier today

10:58 am

FMitch

OH blame the children, seems a good ploy :)

10:58 am

Haz1558

If you can't blame the kids, who can you blame?

10:58 am

Haz1558

(Waiting for chorus of 'Blame FM!')

10:58 am

Atalante

FM!

10:59 am

FMitch

Im not answering that one on the grounds I might incriminate my self.

10:59 am

garyandjulie

had to stop knitting was losing my place with the jolly screaming giggles going on with them earlier

10:59 am

FMitch

Coerced blame placing is not allowed

11:01 am

FMitch

Hi flosey and monty with matching icons.

11:02 am

o-o

te 6 --- or precedes totter

11:02 am

garyandjulie

another word for a see saw is a te**** totter I believe flosey

11:02 am

Haz1558

Or it could be te6 - descriptive of the baby's bottle or the cow's udder.

11:02 am

FMitch

Gasp, Do we send BabbleR to the PB?

11:02 am

Haz1558

That's te6/21

11:06 am

o-o

11:06 am

flosey

guess that long list is the te I need, not getting the clue tho

11:07 am

garyandjulie

11:07 am

li 7

11:10 am

11:18 am

FMitch

BabbleR, some might say you are beginning to mellow.

11:19 am

FMitch

Congrats inge
and just to add insult to injury I hated today sudoku.

11:19 am

Haz1558

You were very patient with the 9 letter seeker earlier.

11:20 am

o-o

perhaps but consistancy escapes me

11:20 am

Haz1558

BabbleRabble, I mean. Fmitch wouldn't have been!

11:20 am

Haz1558

And I certainly wasn't.

11:21 am

FMitch

But at least the glimmers are there.

11:21 am

Haz1558

We all have days when we're better than others. For Atalante most days she is better than others, hence the smugness..... no, that wasn't what I mean!

11:22 am

Atalante

*smug*

11:22 am

FMitch

So Haz ... did you Sainsbury or is the resolve weakening?

LOL

11:22 am

Haz1558

Some days we feel better than on other days. On those days I lurk and rage and grind teeth.

11:22 am

montreal13

the queen and duchess of smugness together in the log !!!

11:23 am

Haz1558

I'm still holding out - Sainsburys is the shop of choice these days.

11:23 am

Haz1558

Can you feel the waves of smugness? It must be like receiving reiki.

11:23 am

FMitch

Ooo monty which is Ata and who is the other?

11:24 am

Haz1558

I know my place.

11:24 am

FMitch

There was antipodean reiki occuring this morning.

11:24 am

Haz1558

I know, I read about it. I think Hobbit could benefit.

11:24 am

montreal13

Ata = queen; Hazel=duchess - -this, of course, only in my VIVID imagination FM...

11:25 am

flosey

have te6/21, 6/18, 6/24, what am I missing please?

11:25 am

FMitch

Wonder if it would work on Hobbits ear, failing that perhaps the lampshade could be tuned to receive Neighbours?

11:25 am

Haz1558

(I said montreal had a vivid imagination, didn't I?)

11:25 am

FMitch

Haz - smug Oh my! Run whist you can monty, run like the wind....

Haz1558

ta6 - if you have te5/10 (consisting of number after nine and two vowels) place the first vowel after the t to make a new word.

11:33 am

Haz1558

Or, reverse the letters of 'to consume food' ( three letters) then a couple of vowels.

11:34 am

lil*monkey

4:40 pm

Robo-bonobo

4:40 pm

4:41 pm

tygerbryght

but I haven't been able to hear anything, and I've asked several times through the day. I'm worried

4:42 pm

herinfernallady

Probably work and house stuff (which they are both doing) also they may be nursing a hang over due to Mr Howard no longer the Prime Miniature.

4:42 pm

4:45 pm

e to the pi i

it's ta6/18

4:45 pm

tygerbryght

I'd have spelt it Labour, but The Economist spells it "Labor" I dunno if it's just that they only spell it "Labour" when it's the British party, or what

4:45 pm

I do too. I'm not a fan of Prince Charlie

4:51 pm

Robo-bonobo

thank you mom!

4:51 pm

tygerbryght

my son thought HM was 100. I gently explained that was her mum, who did pass away a couple years ago, and that the confusion was due to HM being named after her mum

4:51 pm

renfield

no co's herin

4:51 pm

momof5

there are no 'co' words

4:51 pm

4:52 pm

three cy's are from the first cy word

4:52 pm

but HM needs to last long enough for Wm to mature

4:52 pm

Robo-bonobo

now i just need the 4th te6. i have t36/18, te6/21 and te6/24. help with the last?

4:52 pm

Robo-bonobo

te6/18 is related to te5/10

4:52 pm

Robo-bonobo

with a latine ending

4:53 pm

herinfernallady

The only reason Charles is allowed to reign in the future was Dianna never got that signature on that dotted line

4:53 pm

tygerbryght

she should be able to manage that, I think. after all, AFAIK, she's never smoked (as Margaret did). it's fairly apparent that smoking (and other indulgences) is what did in the preceding several generations of men

4:53 pm

jwr

te6 - what happens if you step on a rusty nail and don't have the right shot (injection?)

4:53 pm

That and a good stiff drink like her mum

4:53 pm

4:54 pm

4:54 pm

Robo-bonobo

you're welcome beth

4:56 pm

tygerbryght

I've read one bio of HM, but it was a fairly laudatory one. It did have the nerve to suggest that she, mmm, played around a bit after Anne came along (tit for tat, one assumes), and could be the reason the 2 youngest aren't as horse-faced :P

4:56 pm

jwr

anaemia

4:56 pm

tygerbryght

jwr, that won't get it :)

4:56 pm

jwr

oh dear. Very Sorry.

4:57 pm

herinfernallady

Wrong box JWR and wrong spelling.

4:57 pm

momof5

an7 = one who lacks iron but with double vowels in middle (not common US spelling)

4:57 pm

herinfernallady

Like cowmilla. Gosh i loath Cowmilla (old horse face)

4:57 pm

lilliann

4:57 pm

is this a rash of Typing In The Wrong Box????

4:57 pm

tygerbryght

several instances in the last 2 minutes

4:57 pm

Robo-bonobo

ok, guess i'll come back later for that last te6

4:58 pm

momof5

I think so. One word was correct, the other was close (different ending)

4:58 pm

herinfernallady

Robo one of the TE 6 needs a vowel on the end of it

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

I have to agree. Maybe that's why Charlie loves her? She looks like a member of the family? :snicker:

4:58 pm

herinfernallady

The number after nine plus 3 vowels

5:03 pm

tygerbryght

the press persecuted her because she was maybe 5 pounds overweight; she went bulimic to please them. she was just an insecure teenager, trying to please

5:03 pm

she never stopped trying to do what was wanted of her

5:04 pm

Marc Freeman

5:05 pm

Mom

congrats Momof5

5:05 pm

tygerbryght

she just had the chance to realize them

5:06 pm

lilliann

di was too young to marry, but the royal family thought that they could make her how they wanted her to be and they couldn't....the queen didn't realise how di's death actually affected the people of our country until we went up in arms about it and that surprised her

5:06 pm

lilliann

wtg mom5!!

5:06 pm

I was there, lilli, visiting friends

Hi Cath

it's been really hard for the boys

5:08 pm

tygerbryght

I think it says a lot for what kind of mom Diana was, how well they've turned out. they could have been real brats

5:08 pm

lilliann

we were all in shock... as we never thought that she would die like that and the fact that the queen didn't say anything at the time put more fuel on the fire

5:08 pm

herinfernallady

Is there is just 2 DY words please

5:09 pm

5:10 pm

cathy22w

Not that I wasn't saddened by Di's death (I am British and was living west of London at the time)... I felt that the media psyched everyone up a lot, and poor ole Mother Theresa has got barely a passing mention over the years

6:47 pm

Jacula

Actually, not being a great fan of champers, the expensive ones (Â£30 plus a bottle) always taste like a vitamin C drink to me, I do like a much cheaper one that you can buy by the case in MAKRO - it's Vve Pelletier & Fils.

6:47 pm

lilliann

have you been out tonight jac as you are late tonight?

6:47 pm

7:23 pm

aknitter

je 5 a girls name

7:23 pm

phandmd

girls name

7:23 pm

Jacula

Nope, #29 is the newest on podbean, too.

7:23 pm

Jellen

No, I haven't. Hoping for a brilliant remedial clue to pop up.

7:23 pm

DR1965

ty Knitter

7:23 pm

aknitter

well i just might have that revelation for you LOL

7:24 pm

phandmd

Well, I bought some baby toys not thinking about all the recalls. So now gotta make sure they don't have lead in them.

7:24 pm

Jacula

an7/36 is when you're tired and lethargic because the iron count is too low in your blood.

7:24 pm

aknitter

think the usual american word for low blood count or tired blood.....

7:24 pm

aknitter

and add a the 2nd vowel before the m!!

7:24 pm

aknitter

i kept using the wrong a

7:25 pm

aknitter

it is (whispers) spelled incorrectly (per our brit friends) whispers (perhaps they need a dictionary) :)

7:26 pm

Jacula

OY! I heard that! Our spelling is the correct one!

7:27 pm

Jacula

nut - love the guys with the giant squirrel pic!

7:27 pm

aknitter

i am packing a case of dictionaries as we speak for delivery to england

7:29 pm

Jacula

Check the Oxford and the Collins (full versions), ak. LOL. Actually they both say the 2nd a is English and without the 'a' is US.

7:30 pm

aknitter

why you all need to go and stick in extra vowels is beyond me, spelling is hard enuf!!

7:30 pm

Jacula

However, ak - send me all the dictionaries you like. I love reading 'em. I've got loads.

7:31 pm

Jacula

It's all to do with us being an older country than you, ak. We got invaded by the Romans...

7:31 pm

evanonut

thanks jac

7:31 pm

Jacula

Many others invaded this island nation, too. It makes our language one of the richest in the world.

7:31 pm

aknitter

well kick those others out! we did

7:32 pm

Jellen

Color me confused. I just copied the Brit. spelling into the add word box and it was rejected.

7:32 pm

Jacula

What the invaders or the extra vowels?

7:32 pm

aknitter

what is the color of confusion jellen? got my crayons handy

7:33 pm

aknitter

LOL jac, all of the above

7:33 pm

Jacula

Jellen - it has a consonant not a vowel at the end. It is the condition of being iron-poor.

7:33 pm

Jacula

Confusion is purple?

7:33 pm

Jacula

Or maybe it's a kind of yellowy-red?

7:34 pm

Jellen

Duh!!! Finally got it. Thanks, AK and Jac!

7:34 pm

Jacula

That's an interesting study, actually - what colour people perceive various emotions as.

7:34 pm

Jacula

Well done, Jellen.

7:34 pm

DR1965

YEA JELLEN

7:35 pm

Jellen

Purple is my favorite color. Given my usual state of mind, I'd go with it being associated with confusion!

hi everyone

Robo-bonobo

i am having trouble finding my last word

7:35 pm

sallyds

Can I beg for the last two nas 5/10 and 5/12?

7:36 pm

Jacula

na5/12 = n + what you breathe + vowel.

7:36 pm

Jacula

na5/12 is short form of Mrs. Reagan's first name.

7:36 pm

Jacula

na5/10, I meant for the breathing clue.

7:36 pm

aknitter

yellow is my fav color

7:37 pm

Robo-bonobo

it is a te6. i currently have te6/18, te6/21, and te6/24

badfinger were a short-lived band in UK in the early 70s. Thety had one hit single entitled, 'If You Want It, Here It Is, Come And Get It'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jWFSHw
JnWo

8:32 pm

Jacula

Badfinger was a rock/pop band formed in Swansea, Wales in the early 1960s and is one of the earliest representatives of the power pop genre.

During the early 1970s the band was touted as the heir apparent to The Beatles, partly because of their close working relationship with the 'Fab Four' but also because of their similar sound. However, it was the meteoric rise and harrowing demise of Badfinger that cemented their name in rock history journals. Although poised to make a significant impact on the music scene of the 1970s, starting it out with four hit singles and a number-one Billboard composition, Badfinger became victim to the worst elements of the music industry; resulting in bankruptcy and two suicides.

8:36 pm

Uniquity

Ooh, man...i got stuck on that once before too. thanks!

8:36 pm

Jacula

Not doom and gloom, at all, jilli. It's just a bit of ha, ha, ha you don't know what you've got to come stuff, like our parents did to us before we ever had kids. Am I not allowed my turn at that?

Guess so, jac, lol! It's the kind of thing that lingers under the surface as I read. Fannie--there's nothing lingering, LOL

8:55 pm

My dad used to say "One more crust before I bust" -- not quite sure why. lol!

WSe will be eating a leg of lamb later, that me4 and flesh. If you've ever worked in farming with sheep, you will know that they are so stupid that you just love yelling 'Mint Sauce!' at 'em.

9:25 pm

Jacula

We do, tyger!

9:25 pm

tygerbryght

never been around sheep

9:25 pm

jillibus

well, I see jitney is a phantom *dons thinking cap*

9:25 pm

tygerbryght

I know they're stupid, tho

9:26 pm

jillibus

LOL jac!!!

9:26 pm

jillibus

but the little gambolling lambkins are so CUTE!

9:26 pm

tygerbryght

when we don't give identical clues, we give ones that tend to be very complementary

9:27 pm

tygerbryght

oh, are they ever, jilli

9:27 pm

tygerbryght

I used to love reading Essie Summers novels.

9:27 pm

jillibus

yes, jacutyger is a great combo

9:28 pm

tygerbryght

I've got a nearly complete set, and sheep are a feature in many of them

9:28 pm

Jacula

True - and they're very cuter when they suck greedily on he botles of milk yopu give 'em... but only 3 sheep in 30 herds are intelligent. See UK TV series Shaun the Sheep'. LOL

9:29 pm

jillibus

so that's what that Shaun the sheep thing was about earlier?

9:29 pm

Jacula

Cows and pigs are much more intelligent.

9:29 pm

tygerbryght

Summers emphasized how much hard, dirty work was involved

9:29 pm

tygerbryght

I know that pigs are smart, but farmers (including family) have always told me that cattle are dumb, too

9:30 pm

jillibus

Salt Spring Island (here) is noted for its sheep and delectable lamb. I have a friend who was still handling a sheep farm by herself at age 82

9:30 pm

Jacula

Sheep work, tyger? dagging, pouring sulphur on to get the maggots out of the feet and or body? And much more.

9:30 pm

harpjane

chickens. now THERE'S a dumb animal!

9:30 pm

tygerbryght

wow, jilli. that takes nerve, at that age

9:30 pm

Jacula

Nightmare stuff that! I love roast lamb!

9:30 pm

tygerbryght

hey, harp!

9:31 pm

tygerbryght

I didn't see you come in

9:31 pm

tygerbryght

you said "was" jilli. is she still around?

9:31 pm

Jacula

Chickens can be v. stoopid! But not all of them. Lovve roast chicken though.

9:32 pm

tygerbryght

I like my chicken fried (peel off the skin and batter) :)

9:32 pm

tygerbryght

we always had chickens when I was a kid, and often ducks, once geese, and once guineas. now guineas are stoopid!

9:32 pm

Jacula

I like my chicken roasted. (Leave skin on.)

9:33 pm

tygerbryght

geese are pretty smart

9:33 pm

tygerbryght

yo, jilli!

9:33 pm

Jacula

Ducks fight back if you try to carve them. You just need to use shears to cut them into 4.

9:33 pm

tygerbryght

got your head down in the grid??

9:34 pm

Jacula

You cannot wring or break the necks of ducks or geese, btw, so don't try.

9:34 pm

praise2him

one word left!!

9:34 pm

tygerbryght

go, praise!

9:35 pm

Jacula

And, if you should chop the head off a chicken, don't get too freaked when it dashes around for a while the body of it) afterwards.

9:35 pm

jillibus

she one tough little lady, about 90 lbs -- ex-Brit, posh, would you believe? Finishing school in Switzerland and all that. Now living in a town near a daughter, sold the sheep farm and the pesticide-free golf course. Amazing fun person, good bridge player, more...still does yoga every morning, standing on her head!

9:35 pm

tygerbryght

my father always beheaded our birds

9:35 pm

tygerbryght

how old is she now, jilli?

9:36 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, after a human beheading, it takes 3 or 4 mins before their consciousness goes.

9:36 pm

jillibus

86 I think, tyger

9:36 pm

jillibus

did one of them tell you that, jac?

9:36 pm

tygerbryght

how do they know (about humans), jilli??

9:36 pm

tygerbryght

jillibus

thanks jac

9:51 pm

Jacula

Right, it's 3.49am here and I've smoked 2 cigrarettes in the study/office with window open as neighbour hasn't bothered us again ... yet. 3.30am was latest doorbell ringing interruption time they did.

9:52 pm

jillibus

ok, I give up -- no volcano so what's the et4/5?

9:53 pm

Jacula

other Half went to bed ages ago when he saw me with a glass of wine in hand and signed into Babble. He's seen how much the neighbours have stressed me out.

9:53 pm

jillibus

jac, they are incredible!

9:53 pm

Jacula

e + blood-sucking pest, jilli.

9:54 pm

jillibus

hah, got the et4/5 -- then saw your clue, jac, thanks

9:54 pm

bonkler

why on earth are they ringing your doorbell at that hour?

9:54 pm

Jacula

Going to light another cigrarettem IN MY OWN HOME again now. With office window open.

9:55 pm

jillibus

bonkler, they object to cigarette smoke in somebody else's house

9:56 pm

Jacula

bonkler - she is epileptic and so smells and hears things that aren't there and he's a knuckle dragger who'd baclk her up[ no maytter what.

9:56 pm

AprilD

hi babblers

9:57 pm

jillibus

hello april

9:57 pm

bonkler

i think the appropriate response to that rhymes with truck cough

9:57 pm

AprilD

any help for the na 5/12 and 5/16 (my last two)

9:58 pm

Jacula

bonkler -- I did say earlier for you all to excuse me iff I get caps lock stuck anbd say 'go forth an multiply'. When the knuckle dragger rang earlier I just grunted at him and put phone down.

9:59 pm

jillibus

na5/16 is Mrs Reagan and the 5/12 is the same with a diff last latter

9:59 pm

lbdawger

april, they are both female names, think of mrs reagan, and spell it differently at the end.

9:59 pm

AprilD

Doh! thanks jili, got em, firewords

10:00 pm

jillibus

YAY April!!!

10:00 pm

10:01 pm

Jacula

But, in the week when it's the 4th anniversary of my Dad's death and P's Mom is due to havbe a mastectomy on Monday... I don't need all of that neighbour crap.

10:03 pm

Jacula

I have lived in this house for 27/28 years. I've had 4 sets of next-door neighbours in that time, none of whom smoked, and none of whom ever complained about smoke smells, even new ones until recent new one, whose epilespy drugs still aren't sorted properly.

10:04 pm

Jacula

I've never had any problems with neighbours since this pair moved in, either.

10:06 pm

French fry

hi

10:06 pm

Jacula

WShen I get really stressed, I get light-headed, often get a hugh buzzing noise in one ear and a pulse over left eye starts twitching. All of those, since I am a laid back personm, don't often happen all at once. The eye pulse hasn't begun yet...

10:06 pm

French fry

can some one please give me a clue on the 8 letter word

10:07 pm

Jacula

Hello,l, French.

10:07 pm

StephieC

add two vowels to the de6

10:07 pm

Jacula

de8 = one who is impronsoned.

10:07 pm

French fry

hello jacula

10:08 pm

Jacula

imprisoned.

10:08 pm

French fry

what does impronsoned mean

10:08 pm

Jacula

Sorry! Getting used to new keybaord. LOL

10:08 pm

Jacula

Sorry! Getting used to new keybaord. LOL

10:09 pm

Jacula

Anyway, de8 = one who is imprisoned or held back.

10:09 pm

French fry

i do not know what the de6 word is yet

10:09 pm

French fry

and how can you tell what the letters are for the numbers

10:10 pm

Jacula

de6 = to hold back.

10:11 pm

Jacula

Letter for numbers? de6, for instance, means the word begins with the letters 'de' and has 6 letters.

10:11 pm

Jacula

de6/21 means that the word begins de has 6 letters and is worht 21 points.

10:12 pm

Jacula

Go to 'Help' tab above for word score hep'.

10:12 pm

French fry

i thought that meant that , that was how many words you could make out of it

10:13 pm

Jacula

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

Example:
Word: BABBLE
Points: 3 x (3+1+3+3+1+1)
Total: 36 pts.

10:15 pm

French fry

10:26 pm

Jacula

10:27 pm

Jacula

Finem, harp, except for it being the 4th anniversary of myh Dad dying on Friday, and Other Half;'s MUm having to have her right breast removed on Monday afternoon (26th Nov.)

10:28 pm

harpjane

yikes that stinks jac, my dad died so long ago it almost never hurts any more, but i still notice that i'm extra crabby on the anniversaries (27 years even)

10:28 pm

Jacula

Oh, and mad neighbours ringing, knoc,king etc to complain about cigarette smoke smels from our house.

10:30 pm

Jacula

harp - 27 years heals it? I still think about m y Dad at least once a day - but often without tears noe.

10:31 pm

Jacula

To be honest, I think (imagine) that the loss of a loving parent is not a loss that will ever actually be overcome, just dealt with.

10:32 pm

harpjane

no, you just get used to it, it's never healed. Things never get back to normal. You get used to the new "normal"

10:33 pm

harpjane

if i was there i'd set your neighbors straight--i'm low on estrogen these days so i almost always win !

10:34 pm

Jacula

Harp - thanks for your support. You don't know how much that means to me!

10:35 pm

harpjane

well it's a little oc5, thanks to babble!
