2:07 am

herinfernallady

2:16 am

herinfernallady

I dont know

2:16 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres and LIckty were at friends last night

2:17 am

herinfernallady

Oh and also

2:17 am

2:17 am

herinfernallady

http://www.taste.com.au/page/australia
ngoodtaste/

2:18 am

bbnaz

okay. i will keep looking for her. I have seen lickety just not MRP.

2:18 am

witchy

think they have been very busy as lickety has been late with clues, he said something earlier in the week aabout the house sale getting close.

2:18 am

herinfernallady

From this i am making the fig and walnut cake and the Turkish Delight and Pistachio Truffles (the cake is the lunch present to my b.fs aunts house and the truffles are for my b.fs dad

2:18 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres and LIckety were out all night at friends places. They stayed over (kids to) so they could have a few drinks and relax

2:19 am

bbnaz

and I am also wondering why, if I have finished every puzzle since last Monday, why my "Who's Hot" score hasn't moved at all. I was at 1030 and missed a puzzle which dropped me to 988 and it hasn't moved since.

2:19 am

bbnaz

dagnabbit, I want to be HOT!

2:19 am

herinfernallady

BB we thinks you are hot

2:19 am

bbnaz

ta for that herin!

2:19 am

FranMag

not finishing a puzzle really messes up the ranking

2:20 am

bbnaz

of course living in the desert where the temperatures have finally cooled off, I must be crazy.

2:20 am

FranMag

that's why a lot of people don't even start the longer ones

2:20 am

bbnaz

and I am seeing that first hand Fran. dang horse show

2:20 am

bbnaz

it isn't important really, just was wondering

2:21 am

bbnaz

i have the satisfaction of finishing and getting to chat with all y'all

2:21 am

bbnaz

but it is 1.30a so I am going to slip back to sleep for a few hours. any clues before i go?

2:22 am

herinfernallady

Go night night BB

2:22 am

FranMag

2:22 am

bbnaz

2:22 am

FranMag

2:22 am

herinfernallady

2:25 am

herinfernallady

11:10 am

Uniquity

Cool girl, as others have suggested before, if you use Lickety's clues or Brandy Jacks' clues, all of this information will be available to you...it's very handy and you won't have to rely on other babblers to give you word counts, etc.

11:11 am

Uniquity

You will find both in the "friends of babble" section below the grid

11:11 am

grant

(ty, uni)

11:14 am

sassyB

just wondering...why do some people ask how many total words/points are in the puzzle. aren't they listed on everyone's screen?

11:15 am

Uniquity

No sassy, they stay for only two weeks after joining up or after buying a pro membership

11:15 am

Uniquity

I have been playing non-pro for about a year, so that info disapeared from my screen wuite some time ago :) That is why we use things like Lickety's list, or simply ask

11:15 am

cool girl

thanks uni i didnt no about that site ive not been playing long

11:16 am

sassyB

oh, thanks, uniquity.

11:16 am

Uniquity

I figured - if you require more direction, just ask, I'll gladly help you learn some of the tricks.

11:16 am

cool girl

is the jo7 to do with the jo6

11:16 am

Shellacious

hi everyone, i'm new here, trying to figure out the game

11:16 am

bichon

11:17 am

Uniquity

Hello Shell! IF you're **brand** new, you can check out the help button just above chat, or go below the grid to the "friends of babble" section which has many helpful sites, such as Anglesongs babble page (for new starters), babbler's anonymous and Lickety split for clues

11:17 am

emusing

11:53 am

riemann

Pretty much. Just want to find the last typo in the syllabi, etc.

11:53 am

stidmama

I have five minutes left to clue...

11:54 am

phandmd

happy to help

11:56 am

harpjane

just checked, the chamber pot name started in the 1300's as a perjoritive comment on the river

11:57 am

stidmama

too bad. but then, most of the crusaders were Butt-heads, so not too surprising

11:58 am

featherbee

hi stid, et al

11:59 am

stidmama

hi feather! how's the clan today?

11:59 am

inge

now that I spent 45 minutes reading back in the chat, how is everybody? I love your icon harpjane

11:59 am

featherbee

sleepy! soon as nick is out, i'm taking a nap

11:59 am

featherbee

hi inge!

11:59 am

inge

hi little momma

12:00 pm

harpjane

thanks inge

12:00 pm

featherbee

we're going to my dad's and stepmom's for a belated thanksgiving this afternoon

12:01 pm

stidmama

that will be nice feather -- they must live pretty close, if it's an afternoon gig.

12:01 pm

featherbee

10 minutes

12:02 pm

featherbee

stid, are you on facebook yet? i'd love to play a scrabble game with you on there!

12:02 pm

stidmama

pretty much right on top of each other!

12:02 pm

featherbee

heck, my mom is 5 minutes away!

12:03 pm

stidmama

no feather, facebook requires information that would not allow me to use my alias. I refuse to put myself in a public place with my real name -- or with an alias no one knows.

12:03 pm

featherbee

you could call yourself stid babble...sprite did something similar

12:04 pm

stidmama

I'll think about it. I saw a lot of people with "babble" as their last name

12:04 pm

stidmama

I just think the whole thing is stupid.

12:05 pm

featherbee

well, if you ever do, let me know! i can also show you how to hide yourself from everyone. the only reason i'm using facebook is because i love the scrabble application!

12:05 pm

featherbee

people have tried to find me, who know my full name, and can't. i hid well.

12:05 pm

stidmama

good for you feather!

12:06 pm

timhorton

hi all

12:06 pm

featherbee

hi tim

12:06 pm

timhorton

hi feather

12:06 pm

stidmama

hey tim!

12:07 pm

brandyjack

you mean they don't know what they are doing. Most people have difficulty finding stuff on the net. If you are out there, it is almost impossible to hide. And like stid, I am not interested in being in the public domain....

12:07 pm

stidmama

rofl... what a great icon!

12:07 pm

stidmama

hi BJ!!!! thanks for keeping your list up -- it really saved me the other day when lickety was greatly delayed.

12:08 pm

timhorton

how doyou hide yourself feather ? my kids talked me into faceboook and i am not too comfy wih it

12:08 pm

timhorton

hi stid

12:08 pm

stidmama

fortunately for me, there are LOTS of people with my actual name in the world, so it's hard to weed out my few references on the internet from the others.

12:08 pm

featherbee

heck, public domain...how's this? our local paper has put a link in their website where you can look up the salary of any public school teacher. i *really* don't like that just anyone who knows my name can do that!

12:08 pm

featherbee

there are a lot of privacy settings where you can make it so only your friends can see certain things, or so nobody can see anything.

12:09 pm

Atalante

can't you be Stid Mama on facebook, stif?

12:09 pm

Atalante

stid!

12:09 pm

featherbee

top right corner of facebook, click "privacy" to start. also in your profile, there are little lock icons where you can set different levels of availability.

12:09 pm

brandyjack

Precisely. The settings only apply to certain people...

12:10 pm

brandyjack

And I get enough spam.

12:10 pm

featherbee

i don't get spam from facebook.

12:10 pm

harpjane

your salary is public information but i don't think people should be able to get in anonymously. if they want to know they should have to tell you

12:11 pm

featherbee

nobody can see my email, not even my friends on there. if they want to talk with me, they can send me a message through facebook.

12:11 pm

featherbee

good point harp. it's just weird knowing anybody who wants to can look me up and see what i make.

12:12 pm

sassyB

clues for the en 4 and 5 please?

12:12 pm

stidmama

sorry, was off trying something new with facebook... I couldn't be Stid Mama or Mama stid. I think it rejects "Mama" as a name outright.

12:12 pm

Atalante

I dont get spam from there either

12:12 pm

harpjane

i work for a non profit that gets public funds so we went through that a while ago

12:12 pm

stidmama

I tried the privacy settings, but they were inadequate.

12:12 pm

featherbee

try stid babble?

12:12 pm

Atalante

how annoying!

12:12 pm

stidmama

hey atalante!

12:13 pm

timhorton

so if i put in the search friends only does that mean only ppl i have added to facebook?

12:13 pm

featherbee

not sure what you mean tim...

12:13 pm

timhorton

i went to privacy

12:13 pm

timhorton

and under search

12:14 pm

featherbee

ah, yes tim

12:14 pm

timhorton

thanks thats what i wanted

12:15 pm

featherbee

*pokes ata* your turn!

12:15 pm

timhorton

so i can approach ppl but they can't approach me

12:15 pm

featherbee

exactly.

12:15 pm

Atalante

I'm considering where to put my lack of consonants!

12:16 pm

featherbee

ahhh, lol

12:16 pm

featherbee

cwm is my favorite no-consonant word. and i got to use it last week on a triple!

12:16 pm

Atalante

I have NO consonants!

12:16 pm

timhorton

does it take effect immediately

12:16 pm

featherbee

pretty sure yes tim

12:17 pm

timhorton

cool

12:17 pm

stidmama

try stidmama babble....

12:18 pm

timhorton

now if i join a group are the members of the group able to msg me?

12:18 pm

Atalante

your turn :)

12:19 pm

Atalante

I can see "stidmama babble" but no information

12:19 pm

featherbee

yes, message you on facebook, if you hide your regular email

12:20 pm

featherbee

ok, found stidmama babble, asked to add you as a friend

12:20 pm

stidmama

okay, let's see if that works...

12:21 pm

featherbee

watch your inbox stid, on the top

12:22 pm

Robo-bonobo

hi everyone

12:22 pm

stidmama

I have been. It looks like it posts a birthdate on the profile page???? I didn't enter my real birthdate, but still. Can't find a way to turn it OFF!

12:23 pm

stidmama

hi robo!

12:23 pm

featherbee

edit profile, hide birthday

12:23 pm

Atalante

in your profile, stid

12:23 pm

timhorton

so i shpuld put noone for my email address but i can still get facebook mail?

12:23 pm

featherbee

yes. you have an inbox on facebook, and people can send you messages there.

12:24 pm

stidmama

there. I found it.

12:25 pm

timhorton

does that mean facebook will stop sending notifications to mt email everytime someone scratches their butt on facebook?:)

12:25 pm

featherbee

there is a babblers group, called babblers worldwide. on the left, there is a list of applications...one is called groups. click on that to search for the babble group.

12:25 pm

stidmama

NOT easily found, though. And should automatically set to not show with option to share... I don't like their approach.

12:25 pm

featherbee

lol tim, hope so! there may be other things you need to check off too, not sure. i still get some emails, but not a lot.

12:26 pm

Atalante

its a social networking group ... they are set up to be social

12:26 pm

Uniquity

Stid, the whole thing was originally available only to university students...it was their university presented e-mail which was shown, as well as everyting else.

12:26 pm

stidmama

feathery! you used your real name?

12:26 pm

merylle

hello everyone !

12:26 pm

featherbee

yeah, wish i hadn't now, but can't change it now.

12:26 pm

Uniquity

Facebook is now trying to become globablly avalable, but are still set up toward university students such as myself

12:27 pm

Uniquity

Feather, you can close the account and open a new one...but it keeps theinformation forever. It's a little scary. I had a friend who closed an account, but the info was still available over 6 months later

12:27 pm

Shellacious

i guess i'm terrible at this...lol, i have 56 words left & can't find one.... go me!!

12:28 pm

featherbee

well, uniquity, as i said i have my settings pretty tight, so right now it's only babble friends who see me. and they only see limited info on me, not email or hometown etc. i have to console myself with that.

12:28 pm

stidmama

That is why I closed the first account I created. And had to use a secondary one for this time. Which is okay, I joined as one of my business names... wanna guess what it is? ;-)

12:29 pm

stidmama

not bad shellacious

12:29 pm

Shellacious

really??!! thx

12:29 pm

stidmama

are you using Lickety's list, shell?

12:29 pm

featherbee

wish i was smarter when i originally signed up

12:29 pm

Shellacious

this is my first time to play. i normally play word racer, but i think the site is having trouble

12:29 pm

Shellacious

what is Lickety's list?

12:30 pm

stidmama

I have everything on facebook buttoned up pretty tight... Will let friends see me, but...

12:30 pm

stidmama

Lickety's list is http://licketysplitaus.googlepages.com
/babbleclues

12:30 pm

LuvB

12:30 pm

stidmama

12:30 pm

stidmama

12:30 pm

Erda

12:30 pm

stidmama

12:31 pm

stidmama

facebook is a "social networking site" like myspace

12:31 pm

featherbee

i need to go nap. bbl

12:31 pm

stidmama

enjoy feather

12:31 pm

Erda

Oh. Thank you.

12:34 pm

KatieMcG

evening all :-)

12:35 pm

sassyB

any clues for the en 4, 5

12:35 pm

Atalante

*grins* actually, I think facebook is quite well set out, when you work it out. your "profile" page shows all the bits and bobs - look at mine for example - and then ifyou click on the facebook logo to the left you can see all your notifications etc

12:35 pm

featherbee

ooo ooo, ata! go see! i played!

12:36 pm

Atalante

WOW! go you!!

12:36 pm

featherbee

hee. ok, NOW off to nap!

12:36 pm

Atalante

so much for thinking minis wasn't allowed LOOL

12:36 pm

LuvB

e+ opposite of yes+consonant (then plural for the 5)

12:36 pm

tizer

en + the latin for the sense of smell and then the plural

12:37 pm

featherbee

bwahaha

12:37 pm

Atalante

now its war! *grin*

12:37 pm

sassyB

thx, tizer

12:37 pm

featherbee

oh honey, it's always war with me and a game!

12:37 pm

Atalante

somehow

12:38 pm

sassyB

and LuvB

12:38 pm

stidmama

I have the misfortune to have worked with people who were survivors of domestic violence who were trying to leave... ANYTHING you put online that hints at your real name or location puts you at risk. A person who really wanted to find me probably could.

12:38 pm

Atalante

lol yes, but even more so :P

12:39 pm

merylle

thanks for that tip stidmama. still very new to computers and dont realise the power

12:41 pm

KatieMcG

merylle, you might of guessed that most of us don't use our real names even if it looks like we do. It's just a case of being careful :-)

12:41 pm

merylle

thanks for that stidmama. still new to computers and recognising power

12:41 pm

stidmama

so katie, I missed hearing when the wedding is? will the hampster be your ring-bearer?

12:42 pm

carleekat

hi everyone

12:43 pm

stidmama

12:43 pm

KatieMcG

Hi stid, sorry it's on May 3rd next year, getting really close now had to choose the menu today!! Fuggles will be staying with my parents for the duration and the kitties are all going in to a cattery for the wedding and the honeymoon. Did want them there but then saw sense!!

12:44 pm

carleekat

{{{{STID}}}} still getting over flu..no idea...it is SUNNY...but how cold..no idea...still in jammies

12:45 pm

Uniquity

Congratulations (once again) to my friend who joined babble but never chats...she finished again! :) Go Terilyn!

12:46 pm

stidmama

12:47 pm

carleekat

12:48 pm

stidmama

*offers hot tea and nice pudding to carlee*

12:48 pm

carleekat

oooh..yummm I LOVE pudding

12:48 pm

KatieMcG

We had the first date at the end of July (met through an online dating agency) and got engaged 5 months later. We had a longer engagement because we had to sell 2 houses and buy one and Hubby2b was finishing his open university degree, so thought 2007 was busy enough as it was ;-)

12:48 pm

stidmama

I had a flu shot last month, so haven't really been sick (yet) but last year I didn't catch the flu until April, when the officialseason had ended!

12:49 pm

carleekat

I came down with it last week..but with burning the candle at both ends..and in the middle for 2 months...

12:49 pm

stidmama

*brain whirling with all the arrangements* I guess that was an advantage to be being completely broke and only one of us in college at the time...

12:50 pm

stidmama

hm. so I guess online dating CAN work! LOL

12:51 pm

stidmama

well friends, I guess I ought to go do that writing... I have put it off an extra 50 minutes thanks to trying to figure out the facebook. I am in the Babblers Worldwide group now... *feeling rather proud for entering the social networking age*

12:51 pm

KatieMcG

I know stid, I project manage at work so have been working on it like a work project but then today the question of a guest book came up - honestly who knew! Thinking of doing a memory tree. Would strongly recommend internet dating but you have to be very careful and it is probably best if you aren't too desperate to meet someone, that way you can be more objective.

12:52 pm

carleekat

woohoo..u are in facebook now...?..cool...I posted some cute pics there stid...

12:54 pm

2:08 pm

FMitch

You would love that Haz, so long as the family could be packed off for 24 hours.

2:08 pm

FMitch

We could play in babble teams and work it in shifts round the time zones.

2:08 pm

Nef

LOL! :D FM! Okay, How about the A words? I need 3 of the 6.... I have an ad 5/15, an am 5/14, and an an 4/4

similar to this (or boggle) with a board & letters only used once & have to touch, but it's a race, first person to find the word gets the points. a game has 4 rounds and you can play rated or unrated

3:19 pm

3:19 pm

3:32 pm

3:33 pm

Minveryork

I emailed Dr. God for the failure.I'm sure he got a ton

3:33 pm

redturtlehead

The riots! I managed to not email Dr G because I figured everyone else had.

3:35 pm

Uniquity

I have a few friends who like to help me do the grid, but refuse to play themselves for fear it will "take over their lives" like it does mine.

3:35 pm

NonnieLight

I was a dr_god emailer, I must admit. I was in a panic; what else can I say.

3:35 pm

carra

hi everyone

3:36 pm

NonnieLight

hello carra

3:36 pm

carra

when did the site not load.. was it the other day ?

3:36 pm

carra

Hi Nonnie

3:36 pm

Minveryork

When did it finally work? Was there no grid that day?

3:36 pm

JMHBEAN

for the first time I have got to halfway!!!!not too exciting for you guys that finishe but I am quite chuffed!!!!

3:36 pm

Uniquity

Yeah, Dr_God had run out of grids!!! He made some more though to last til the end of the year I think he said

3:37 pm

NonnieLight

It finally came up but I don't remember when. Sometime mid-morning cst, I think.

3:37 pm

Uniquity

About eight hours in, I believe he got it back up

3:37 pm

NonnieLight

go jmhbean go! Good work!

3:38 pm

o-o

well down, JMH

3:38 pm

JMHBEAN

thanks nonnie!

3:38 pm

carra

i guess it was the other day i came on and no grid then tried later in the day and it was up.. and i asked if anyone had problems but they said no ?

3:39 pm

Shellacious

question....if i need to reboot, can I come back to the site & log on & all my entries still be there?

3:40 pm

Minveryork

Wonder how he makes the puzzles and chooses what letters to include. I thought Dr. God used a program that randomly picks the letters & places them in grid

3:40 pm

Uniquity

They will be here sShell

3:40 pm

o-o

yes

3:40 pm

Uniquity

Unless there is a glitch in the system, which is rare

3:40 pm

NonnieLight

Yes, shellacious...that is the beauty of this game.

3:40 pm

Shellacious

thx babble

3:41 pm

I always assumed it was a program using randomization....but I guess not

i watched some Star Trek as a youth but was turned off by the "Arena" episode - 1 of the best short SF story ever written turned into a hugely disappointing episode...

5:06 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hello, scorpion person! 8-)

5:06 pm

hurshy

my fave OS episode, of course, is "city on the edge of forever" *wipes tear*

5:06 pm

montreal13

hi jill !

5:07 pm

Krista

It's strange with me..I read so much sci-fi as a kid, but never liked the tv shows or movies. Don't understand it.

5:07 pm

tygerbryght

only con I ever attended was a Dr Who themed one, put on by the Detroit club

5:07 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i like ST but am generally turned off by Kirk so it's a struggle to watch LOL

5:07 pm

jillibus

well, I'm not really a scorpion -- they creep me out (icon theme)

5:07 pm

hurshy

perhaps the poor production qualities had something to do with it, krista

5:07 pm

tygerbryght

Krista, I'm with you. I'm not a movie or TV person, particularly, but I'm a "stone" bookworm

5:07 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

tyger, i went to a bunch of Detroit DW cons, too. Some were good, and some . . .

5:08 pm

Krista

Is that the theme? Things that creep us out?

5:08 pm

montreal13

creepy insects

5:08 pm

hurshy

nb: my nephew does not creep me out

5:08 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

daleks don't creep me out, but they should. LOL

5:08 pm

tygerbryght

I have many SF friends who go to cons all the time

5:08 pm

jillibus

"Your creepiest insect" is the theme

5:09 pm

tygerbryght

most of those friends were made through various maillists :)

5:09 pm

hurshy

nb: my nephew is not an insect either, phew.

5:09 pm

Krista

That could be it, hurshy..and I was a really depressed kid, and Star Trek always seemed dark and forboding..(spelling?)

5:09 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

insect??? i thought the whole "scorpions are insects" thing was over . . .

5:09 pm

tygerbryght

of course you know that scorpions aren't insects, right, jilli??

5:09 pm

Krista

**rushes off to look for picture of an earwhig**

5:09 pm

hurshy

he does have a lot in common with his cousin marty though :) :) :)

5:09 pm

jillibus

*hangs head in shame*

5:10 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

centipedes are very very creepy. what do they need all those legs for anyway?

5:10 pm

tygerbryght

aw, ((((jilli))))

5:10 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

(yes, i know centipedes aren't insects either)

5:10 pm

hurshy

really krista? to me star trek is SO much less dark and scary than star wars. i love both, but star wars is this tiny band of rebels against the huge evil empire... much scarier than relatively equal superpowers in a cold war a la OS trek.

5:10 pm

Krista

oh, and Captain Kirk's nipples were distracting

5:10 pm

tygerbryght

"when they were giving out legs, centipedes were behind the door, and thought they said 'eggs' "? :D

5:11 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

eegad, girl, don't look at the nipples!!

5:11 pm

tygerbryght

Krista?? Shatner's nipples?? Yuck

5:12 pm

tygerbryght

never been a fan of Shatner

5:12 pm

tygerbryght

can't see what the fen do, either

5:12 pm

jillibus

My cousin and I used to catch earwigs, knock them out with eau de cologne on a cotton ball, harness them with threads to a tiny paper chariots with pins for axles, line them up, and when they regained consciousness, see who won the race. Great fun.

5:12 pm

hurshy

i think there is only one person in the W. Shatner fan club... and his name rhymes with phlatner

5:13 pm

Krista

LOL! they just always seemed to be so "out there!" Must have been cold in space.

5:13 pm

Krista

ROFL hurshy!!

5:13 pm

hurshy

khan did say it was cold in space...

5:13 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

krista!!

5:13 pm

5:16 pm

tygerbryght

5:18 pm

jbp

could I have a couple C clues? I have exact copy, and plural, and sound a horse makes and it's plural

5:18 pm

hurshy

i think it is terrible how he actually used a scene from star trek six (the best movie!) in a commercial!!! he ain't got no respect.

5:18 pm

tygerbryght

it took great imagination for her and her cousin to do that!

5:19 pm

hurshy

cut the end off the exact copy

5:19 pm

tygerbryght

co4/5 & co5/12 are a pair, steering a ship

5:19 pm

jillibus

5:19 pm

jbp

thanks Hurshy!!

5:19 pm

montreal13

great earwig story hursh ...lol

5:19 pm

Krista

Tyger...good one for me to avoid, then! I never saw an earwig until I was almost 20...and then a "swarm" of them crawled out of a vacuum cleaner bag all over me.

5:22 pm

tygerbryght

5:23 pm

tygerbryght

hey feather....

7:37 pm

7:37 pm

you're right feather - poor hubby

7:37 pm

carleekat

well..just be prepared with the powerwasher when you get home feather

7:37 pm

featherbee

i said he just needs to make it to lunchtime, then once daniel's down for a nap he's home safe till i get home at 4

7:38 pm

featherbee

nah, i think it's more like i'll need to unplug daniel from his 15th viewing of cinderella (his new favorite movie)

7:39 pm

carleekat

my son loved...fern gully

7:39 pm

carleekat

( tone loc was the lizard )

7:40 pm

carleekat

( and robin williams was the batty bat )

7:40 pm

featherbee

aww, ferngully...i have that at school, we watch it at rest time.

7:40 pm

featherbee

"gravity works"

7:41 pm

carleekat

hehehe... yeap.... it was one of the fav...and jungle book

7:41 pm

featherbee

we have jungle book, daniel watched it once, and wasn't that interested. weird.

7:41 pm

carleekat

and aladdin

7:41 pm

featherbee

cinderella however....the boy loves it.

7:41 pm

carleekat

they rarely are the "1st " time

7:41 pm

featherbee

i love aladdin!

7:41 pm

carleekat

I want to see enchanted in theatres :D

7:42 pm

AsGreen

ok, I'm back! Fric and Frac are off to bed, hubby is on plane to Hong Kong - it's just me and the puzzle!

7:42 pm

AsGreen

Carlee - Enchanted was really terrific! We saw it yesterday

7:42 pm

featherbee

i showed daniel little mermaid, since he's on a mermaid kick lately (thanks to a dora mermaid episode) and he seemed to like it but was scared at the sea witch's parts

7:43 pm

featherbee

i think that's why he likes cinderella so much. it's a good story, he likes the magic and the mice and thinks cinderella is pretty, and there aren't really any truly scary parts.

7:43 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Babble people!

Guten Abend Frau Doktor!! Sorry about that

7:44 pm

Scrabbler

I miss all that fun stuff from when my nephews were little guys--the magical, fantasy, exciting stuff. Now the 3 are teenagers---AAAAHHHH.

7:44 pm

carleekat

what is magorium? ( sorry a BIt out of loop still )

7:44 pm

renfield

hey inge!!

7:44 pm

Uniquity

I love Aladdin and Beauty and the BEast (because Belle loved to read!) The rest of the princesses are too...unintelligent

7:44 pm

featherbee

wondered what that was inge! i usually sort of know you're speaking german, that was a new one on me

7:44 pm

Scrabbler

Inge, that looked like Danish or Swedish, LOL

7:45 pm

inge

and Guten Abend, to all the other babblers

7:45 pm

Scrabbler

My favorite is Shrek!

7:45 pm

7:45 pm

pam

Hi, inge!

7:45 pm

featherbee

ok scrabbler, how bad is it if i wipe this stinking eye goop off a half hour after it goes in the eyes? some of the antibiotics stay in there, right? have i perhaps mentioned i hate this stuff?

7:45 pm

Scrabbler

Buzz & Woody!

7:46 pm

inge

My most recent viewing has been Fawlty Towers!!!

7:46 pm

7:46 pm

Krista

pam

carleekat

7:46 pm

featherbee

(hides from krista...shhhh)

7:47 pm

featherbee

thursday pam

7:47 pm

Scrabbler

Are your eyes improving? See, if you have viral conjunctivitis then antibacterial eye ointment won't help anyway. What did they put you on? Polytrim?

7:47 pm

Krista

i was going to reply with one of my own and there was no place to play it!!! (heapingS is not a word, I learned). :)

7:47 pm

pam

Oh, you have to be so over it, feather!!!!

7:47 pm

featherbee

i can't spell it...erythromyicin. the eyes are mostly clear, a few tiny veins still.

7:48 pm

Krista

she sees well enough to kick my butt at scrabble

7:48 pm

pam

lol. krista!

7:48 pm

featherbee

well why not? i had heapings of mashed potatoes at thanksgiving! hmm, nope, sounds weird.

7:48 pm

carleekat

ok..well... I am outta hear..my son wants the puter

7:48 pm

Krista

I thought I could turn it into a noun.

7:49 pm

carleekat

7:49 pm

renfield

later carlee

7:50 pm

AsGreen

bye carlee!

7:50 pm

featherbee

ohh, lucky scrabbler! i almost used that spot with my K! but then saw more points in the other place.

7:50 pm

Scrabbler

Feather, my medical opinion is that someone put you on a stoopid eye ointment....not a good choice, AND that if you are improving we usually say to treat for 5-7 days.

7:51 pm

Krista

scrabbler..did u just start a game with me? it started two, so I deleted the other one (it keeps doing that)

7:51 pm

Krista

thanks :)

7:52 pm

Krista

seems like I've used drops in the past..always had it when I was in school

7:52 pm

featherbee

oh thank goodness. i was thinking of doing the goop maybe once at night, and doing breastmilk drops during the day for the rest of the time. the stupid script said 10 days, i'm on day 6.

7:52 pm

featherbee

i do NOT recommend ointment! ever!

7:53 pm

Krista

it's awful...drops are much nicer

7:53 pm

pam

I like tea compresses when my eyes itch and burn... I have to use ointment nightly to keep my eyes lubricated and I really don't like it!

7:53 pm

Uniquity

My little brother had a condition where his eyelashes rolled in on his eyeball...we had to put ointment in his eye three times a day, every day for two + years...I am pro

7:54 pm

Scrabbler

We only use ointment (erythromycin) for very young infants. Otherwise we use drops.

7:54 pm

featherbee

plus, i'll be at school tomorrow, and don't want goopy eyes! half the time i can't see properly because it's on my lashes or clouding my eyesight, the rest of the time i'm wiping them with tissues

7:54 pm

pam

How is Mary, Scrabs?

7:54 pm

featherbee

oh man uniquity, that stinks

7:54 pm

AsGreen

OK, why can't I find this: mu 5,14?

7:54 pm

featherbee

stoopid walk in dr.

7:54 pm

Scrabbler

That diagnosis = entropion.

7:55 pm

Uniquity

I can never remember the word scrabbler...that's def it though

7:55 pm

featherbee

well thanks for the input scrabs!

7:55 pm

pam

I had an allergic reaction to opthalmic e-mycin when I tore my cornea--hate that stuff now, LOL!

7:56 pm

Scrabbler

I spent the afternoon with Mary and her husband at the hospital and she is doing better than a wk ago. Last Sunday she lost consciousness, needed to be an a ventilator in the ICU x 1 day. She got aspiration pneumonia. She was smiling and joking today, but is SO weak.

7:56 pm

featherbee

oh i'm glad she's doing a bit better

7:57 pm

pam

I am glad she is on the upswing now, Scrabs. (((((WHITE LIGHT))))))

7:57 pm

Scrabbler

Cancer is evil so it requires nasty treatments such as radiation and poisons (chemo).

7:57 pm

Scrabbler

It makes me so sad to see her going through all of this.

7:58 pm

pam

I am sure it does, scrab.

7:58 pm

Scrabbler

Oops, I have to move laundry from the washer to the dryer. BRB

7:58 pm

featherbee

i keep thinking of her family too. such a rough situation for all.

7:58 pm

AsGreen

clue for mu 5, 14?

7:59 pm

Krista

kids are clamoring for pizza...need to go. Oh my...she has really been through it. It's always hard when the treatment makes you feel ill when the disease did not. That was hard for me to "get my head around." I used a lot of visualization..when I threw up, I pictured it being the cancer cells...I pictured them being grass and the chemo was a lawn mower...tried not to think of the chemo as poison when it sure felt like it (they didn't have zofran and such back then..)

7:59 pm

pam

plural of the 4/6 or is there another, asg? ( I don't use the list, so I never know)

8:00 pm

featherbee

what kind of cancer did you have krista?

8:00 pm

renfield

mu 5/14 is plural of mu 4/6 needs mu**

8:00 pm

Scrabbler

TY for those ideas, Krista.

8:00 pm

pam

(((((hugs)))))) to you, too, krista

8:01 pm

renfield

(((krista)))) mucho grande hugs

8:01 pm

featherbee

scrabbler, i saw a book once, when my mom was going through chemo and radiation for breast cancer, anyway, it had visualization ideas for people going through that...something like what krista just said, but lots of different ideas.

8:02 pm

renfield

i worked w/ the doctors so my mom would not go through the throw up

8:02 pm

AsGreen

thanks guys - maybe I don't get the points? I thought it was the value of the letters... anyway, I got the word - but that would add up to 7pts...!

8:02 pm

Scrabbler

There is a great book called, hmm, crazy cancer, or something. Someone gave it to Mary and it is full of advice about the entire struggle.

8:02 pm

pam

Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips

8:02 pm

featherbee

there's a tv series called something like that

8:03 pm

Scrabbler

That's it. My puritan mind left out the word "sexy".

8:03 pm

featherbee

asgreenblatt....up above chat here, click on "help". it will explain how the points work!

8:03 pm

AsGreen

ooh, chatter is heavy - sorry for focusing on the words and not the topic - hugs to all of you going through or helping someone through this!!

8:03 pm

featherbee

don't worry about it! we mix chat and clues all the time.

8:04 pm

AsGreen

8:06 pm

featherbee

i'll invite you to a game on facebook then...you can take your turn once a day if you need to! that's the nice thing, is that it saves it.

8:08 pm

AsGreen

8:09 pm

featherbee

8:10 pm

jillibus

Nobody has those S words?

8:10 pm

Krista

Ah, just take it out and have some pizza, Pam. Or have some with it in! (ewww)
