Sprite, you can have two different colored eyes but Bowie doesn't. He has a permanently enlarged iris on one side which makes it seem different colored
1:25 am
moonwoof
They're both the same color sprite, he just got in a fight as a kid and now one of his pupils stays really open. People mix it up because pictures can be wierd.

jean1953
Hi lynxxx:)
4:33 am
lynxxx
really easy, this retirement has something going for it. How are you, when does school start again? and where has Cool been?
4:34 am
bfsog
hey lynx :)
4:37 am
pinkhatlil
you are in retirement, that must be wonderful! im ok, life is just taking it out of me, its like one thing after another. I go back to uni in February *i think* must check! Cool girl's daughter is in hospital with Gastroentritis, where she is a diabetic its really serious, so she's up the hospital everyday with her!
4:39 am
bfsog
what you studying hatti? my girlfriend went back yesterday, lucky you!
4:39 am
lynxxx
Oh dear, please tell Cool I am thinking of her. I hope they get everything under control quickly.
4:41 am
bfsog
not sorry, thank you! hehe
4:43 am
pinkhatlil
i will tell her lynxxx, she is so worried about her, i know she'll appreciate it...my degree is called early childhood studies...and basically i look at children between the ages of 0-8. i deal with cognitive, physical and psychological development of that age group bfsog *what a mouthful*
4:44 am
bfsog
sounds really interesting though
4:46 am
pinkhatlil
it is but the psychology is a killer, to many conflicting ideas....we may have a longer holiday, but the semesters are 3 or 4 weeks longer than most universities
4:48 am
bfsog
psychology has always interested me, especially the profilers that the police use
4:49 am
elder
Good morning everyone - ugh, another chilly rainy day.
4:50 am
pinkhatlil
cool girl was doing criminology at uni and some of the things she would tell me would either freak me out or amaze me...like people who often set fire to things and are cruel to animals, are the most likely to become arsonists or serial killers *according to her*
4:50 am
jean1953

5:01 am
lynxxx
bfsog - it sounds like you be looking aroiund for something new soon, hope it will be more satisfying

5:04 am

5:04 am
lilliann

5:04 am
elder
Lynnx I have heard that contrary to what people think Grey hounds usually make very good family pets.

5:07 am

Greyhounds are known as couch potatos, very lazy with occasional spurts of enthusiasm. Require only a couple of short walks a day. Very loving and loyal. Clean, funny...Yes I am totally coverted!
5:07 am
bfsog

lying on the sofa and the two kitties have cuddled up with me, makes all the trouble they are worth it :-)
5:09 am
elder
hello Katie. -
5:09 am
lilliann
my poodle who is dead now got attacked by a greyhound as was very poorly and in a rabbit run for a while as he wasn't allowed to move too much.it was someone i worked with dog, he though he was a rabbit. the greyhound was as soft as muck.
5:10 am
lilliann
hi katie.have you had your teeth out yet?
5:10 am
pinkhatlil
i only ask, as people i know have had there graduations but receive the degree in the post, or have to and collect it
5:10 am
elder
diving into the grid again before the back shouts out. !
5:11 am
pinkhatlil
that sounds so cosy katie on this cold miserable day!
5:11 am
KatieMcG
Hi everyone. She only took the one that was hurting out as the other one didn't need to come out. It went Ok considering, thought I would babble before the numbness wore off!
5:11 am
bfsog
i got mine in the post
5:12 am
lilliann
well, atleast it was only the one, hope it feels better soon
5:12 am
lynxxx
Oh Lill - that must have been awful for you. The organisation I got Stewart through gets dogs from trainers who obviously care for their animals, nthey are assessed and then fostered for acclimatisation b4 they are put with new owners. They also must be on lead - by law - although not muzzled.
5:12 am
pinkhatlil
you would have thought, you'd receive the degree on graduation day..it makes sense and a little more special!
5:13 am
KatieMcG
thanks lill, it's got to be better than having the toothache :-) Mom came with me becaus I am such a baby :-)
5:13 am
pinkhatlil
did they remove teeth katie?
5:14 am
KatieMcG
Just the one pink. Still numb so no too bad. Looking forward to a couple of days time when there is no pain from it all :-)
5:14 am
elder
Pink on graduation day you get a pretend rolled up degree -for photos and the degree is sent on later.
5:15 am
KatieMcG
it was years ago but I got the real thing on my graduation day
5:15 am
bfsog
yeah i know. il just tryu and do more freelance, so you all know where i am!
5:15 am
KatieMcG
My phantom for today is agony :-)
5:16 am
lilliann
it was scary lynn, as we didn't think he was going to make it at one time, one of his ribs punctured his lung and where he bit into his neck, if it had been a fraction more to the left he would have killed him outright, he took a few months to get better and then was fine. my friends dog had always been friendly to other animals, and great with people, but as he saw him running he just mistook him for something else.
5:18 am
lilliann
i was never very good with dentists katie, i use to have to have valium before i went as my dentist scared me to death, he was the only one i could get.....wonder why!!and it cost a fortune.i didn't go to dentist for 14 yrs after that and only went because i wanted my daughter to be comfortable with a dentist.
5:18 am
KatieMcG
yeah, half way through I'm going for the list :-)
5:19 am
elder
I think, if you can have the county name - over the Q2 bridge we should be allowed Teflon :)
5:20 am
KatieMcG
I managed to get an NHS dentist so it wasn't too bad, about £44. I need quite a bit more doing but after the pain of the last few weeks I don't mind going anymore :-)
5:21 am
lilliann
i'm alot better now as my new dentist is great, but i had to have 7 teeth removed when i 1st saw him, because of the last butcher!!
5:22 am
lynxxx
Lill - I did read that you need to take care around smaller white fulffy dogs with them- I presume they train with white rabbits look-a-likes. Was your poodle a minature? Stewart is excellent with confident dogs, in fact is a bit of a scaredy-cat..a timid dog seems to be another matter - although HE DOES GIVE A LOW GROWL WARNING
5:23 am
KatieMcG
ouch lill, I'm glad you are better now, it's worth it in the long run :-)
5:23 am
bfsog
my phantom is dragon
5:24 am
lilliann
he was a black toy and would love to play with any size dog lynn, i think it was just one of those things that happens. i would have a greyhound.
5:26 am
lilliann
aye katie, apart from being gappy, my teeth are perfect....so moral of the story, go to dentist regularly! nice ones, anyway!
5:27 am
Marc Freeman

NonoNanette
Time now for a shower.... Happy babbling everyone
7:45 am
Aloyisius

7:46 am
EvaNadine
i love the first name....i just hope she doesnt get the obvious joke when she gets older. *cringe*
7:47 am
Aloyisius
???? don't see the obvious, Eva

laida..."i laid-a govier" (govier is our last name)
7:48 am

Speaking of musicals, we went to see Burton's film of Sondheim's Sweeney Todd --- breathtaking and brutal!
8:31 am
Scarlet
Oh, sis... was it fabulous? Daughter went to see the movie and said it was amazing...
8:31 am
Anniebrook
ch, I want to see the film, saw the Broadway musical with Angela Lansbury...it was chilling
8:31 am
ch1212
Oh yes. My beloved is a devoted Sondheim fan and therefore was hesitant, but he embraced it (even as he grimmaced at the blood)
8:32 am
Scarlet
Annie, I read that she was brilliant in that!
8:33 am
Anniebrook
Scarlet, I believe Ms. Lanbury won the Tony for her performance....I can't imagine doing that role over and over...
8:33 am
Scarlet
Oh, kattie dear... where are you hiding? I have missed you miserably....
8:33 am
ch1212
As good as Helena Bonham Carter is in the film, she can't touch Angela Lansbury -- but really, no one can in that role. I've seen Patty ...oh, what's her name...she was also Tony winner for Evita... anyway, Mrs. Lovett is Angela's role.

It's been several years, but my grandmother, my aunt and my other aunt who was my mother's twin, all died of breast cancer. It's an awful thing. Two friends of mine were both diagnosed in the past 2 years an both are doing very well post mastectomy and radiation chemo.

We need to remind each other to do self checks every month.
11:03 am

11:04 am
Haz1558
We'd been following her progress through her treatment and I suppose had felt involved - he has been around for a long time but doesn't chat a great deal. But he's a dear.

i had sushi for lunch...
so im quite pleased. :)
12:10 pm
caitlyn
I have never tried that..puts on list of things to do in 2008!
12:10 pm
Denny
I love sushi - so clean tasting and light
12:10 pm
EvaNadine
i never thought id like it (and i still dont do the really adventurous ones) but im addicted!
12:11 pm
rolin
im missing an n...i have the title.. the drugs one.. the close one..the material one..and the one that rymes with difficult..
12:11 pm
caitlyn
Does it taste really fishy?
12:12 pm
EvaNadine
caitlin, it depends what you get, but overall, it doesnt!
(which is good, since i dont really like seafood very much!)
12:12 pm
EvaNadine
rolin -- build off of the title for NA6
12:12 pm
Denny
i don't think so (and I don't like fish much) and you can get vegetarian ones made with peppers or cucumbers
12:13 pm
EvaNadine
im a fan of the spicy tuna roll
thats what i had today. :)
12:14 pm
adorablelila1988
44 words so far!
12:14 pm

Right I really will try it..Tescos does packs of it so will get some next time Im shopping
12:15 pm

thanks for the n clue eva
12:15 pm
caitlyn

12:15 pm
Denny
caitlyn - boots sushi is quite nice too
12:16 pm
caitlyn
Oh thanks Denny
12:16 pm
EvaNadine
caitlin -- start with something simple like a california roll, or a veggie roll like a cucumber or avocado roll...
youll get the idea of sushi without having to deal with the fish.
then, if you like the overall taste, you can venture into the fishes that you know you like...
12:17 pm
caitlyn
Thanks for the tip Eva..I will do that
12:18 pm
caitlyn
I like smoked salmon!
12:20 pm
Denny
Caitlyn - the packs in the shops tend to play it safe with tuna and smoked salmon and vegetable rolls
12:20 pm
caitlyn
Im feeling hungry now
12:20 pm
EvaNadine
caitlyn -- you might like the Philadelphia Roll (thats what its called over here, anyway) -- its smoked salmon + cream cheese
12:21 pm

Brookie
thanks hurshy, still stumped unfortunately! (I'm having a REALLY bad day so I'm a little distracted.)
2:27 pm
hurshy
like the screwdriver, that drink was named after a small tool for boring holes, consisting of a shaft with a pointed screw at one end and a handle perpendicular to the shaft at the other.
2:27 pm
hurshy
well you need to reread anne pronto, methinks :)
2:29 pm

hurshy
yes kristin, why
3:00 pm
Jellen
Go, hurshy!
3:01 pm
kristinc
I was just wondering if you still were (and thus get to sneak in a little babble at work yes?)
3:01 pm
hurshy
yeah... sigh... i'd rather not! whole reason i wanted a job was to be more productive.
3:02 pm
kristinc
Babbling at work always makes me happier, more productive employee. I'm certain of it! :)
3:02 pm
kristinc
I see, so there are some definite slow times then...that actually makes me frustrated too. It is nice to be challenged.
3:03 pm
hurshy
i sent in an app to a job i think i'd really like but i'm sure i won't hear anything.
3:03 pm

hurshy
are there any h6's?
3:04 pm
hurshy
it is helping blind people learn independent living skills. but, i won't hear anything.
3:04 pm
Krysten
Anyone have clues for the fe words? I have the first two fe4,7 and that's it! I'm going blind and slightly mad...
3:05 pm
hurshy
the next two are to fake
3:05 pm
hurshy
then criminal and what he did

hurshy
then party
3:05 pm

3:05 pm
bichon
fe 5/20 & 16 are faje wirds
3:05 pm
CadFan
one is a criminal - the one following that is a crime (extension of the criminal)
3:05 pm
kristinc
That sounds like a very fulfilling job hurshy. Don't count yourself out. It is hard to find great workers in non-profit/social service fields. You'd be great and agencies are always looking for great employees (at least here in Seattle). Good luck.
3:05 pm
bichon
sorry, fake
3:06 pm
Jellen
Gi 5/16 clue, anyone?
3:06 pm
bichon
gi 5 is a letter of the Hebrew alphabet
3:06 pm
Jellen
That does sound like a challenging job, hurshy.
3:07 pm
bichon
It actually comes from the word camel
3:07 pm
hurshy
i think it would be fulfilling but i'm sure they will pick someone else. they don't know i'd be great.
3:07 pm
Jellen
Thanks, bichon
3:07 pm
hurshy
nothing that good happens for me though.
3:08 pm
Atalante
what about marty?
3:08 pm
72 Temple Owl
hursh, is your degree in the social services?
3:08 pm
hurshy
my degree is in psychology...
3:08 pm
hurshy
semi-related
3:08 pm
kristinc
you never know hurshy :)
3:08 pm
hurshy
that's true marty is great
3:08 pm
hurshy
but i mean job-wise
3:08 pm
Vicuna
They don't know that nothing good ever happens for you, either. They might mistakenly allow something good to happen.
3:09 pm
Krysten
thanks all for the fe words...one left!
3:09 pm
hurshy
the universe won't allow them to allow it
3:09 pm

3:11 pm
hurshy
ok so m5, t6
3:11 pm
Vicuna
Think of it this way, hursh: if you're really the no-account creature you think, then the universe won't care enough about you to pay any attention to this. And if the universe thinks you're important enough to thwart, you must be a pretty special person!
3:11 pm
Jellen
mi 5/20 clue please?
3:11 pm
hurshy
unless the universe is just malicious
3:12 pm
Vicuna
Even so, it's probably lazy, too.
3:12 pm

kristinc

3:17 pm
Vicuna
Isn't punctuation wonderful.
3:17 pm
Jellen
Yay for hurshy!
3:17 pm
Vicuna
The second th6/18 is the one who commits the first.
3:18 pm
Jellen
Thanks, Vicuna
3:18 pm
hurshy
i think that was 5/18.
3:18 pm
hurshy
that vi meant there.
3:19 pm
hurshy
punctuation is wonderful, someone should have told the ancient greeks.
3:19 pm
Vicuna
Yeah, it was, but that's what she asked for. I just mistyped my clue.
3:19 pm
Jellen
We communicated, anyway.
3:20 pm
Vicuna
It's quite a recent invention, actually. I wonder who invented it, though.
3:20 pm
kristinc
sounds like nap time is over. I'll be back later for my last 30. Have a good afternoon all :)
3:20 pm
Jellen
Bye, kristin
3:20 pm
Vicuna
Goodbye, kristin.
3:21 pm
Jellen
Last he 5/14, please?
3:21 pm
hurshy
i guess if we don't know who invented something we call it an innovation instead
3:22 pm
Vicuna
he5/14 - he + 60 secs
3:22 pm
Vicuna
Is that the difference?
3:22 pm
Jellen
Thanks, Vicuna. That's fireworks for me.
3:22 pm
hurshy
i dunno i just invented the difference
3:23 pm
Vicuna
Yay for Jellen!
3:23 pm
Vicuna
ANd we know it was you, so it wasn't an innovation. ;)
3:23 pm
hurshy
i guess i do think that the connotation of invention brings a person or persons to mind for me, whereas innovations can be by a known entity, or not
3:23 pm
hurshy
but i don't know if like, english profs would agree or whatnot
3:24 pm
Vicuna
Ata? Ata? You just appeared only to tease?
3:25 pm
Atalante
am here! sorry! husband keeps talking at me
3:26 pm
Vicuna
What a vixen she is. =P
3:26 pm
Vicuna
Oh, husband schmusband. I take back the vixen, though.
3:27 pm
Atalante

3:27 pm
Vicuna
All I wanted was to say hi, anyway. (We have not overlapped much recently.)
3:28 pm
Atalante
I havent been here for the last month! But I'm BACK!
3:28 pm
Vicuna
Real vixens are quite lovely. Metaphorical ones, alas, don't fare so well.
3:28 pm
Vicuna
That would explain it. Where were you?
3:28 pm
Atalante
I saw Ian McKellen naked!
3:29 pm
KatieMcG
evening everyone, does anyone need any clues?
3:29 pm
Uniquity
G'd evening babble! Done classes, done readings and back for my last 107 ;)
3:29 pm
Atalante

3:29 pm
Vicuna
And it knocked you flat for a month, eh?
3:29 pm
Vicuna
Ian McKellen, i meant, not the friend's visit.

Are your teeth no longer troublesome Katie?
3:30 pm
Atalante
well he's certainly got something to be that impressed with LOL
3:31 pm
KatieMcG

3:32 pm
ExWren
At last, I have Fireworks. The first time in ages, I haven't played for a long time
3:32 pm
KatieMcG
Just to be controversial, isn't Ian McKellen quite old?
3:32 pm
Uniquity
Sounds like it might be a long 30 minutes!
3:32 pm
Vicuna
Yay for ExWren!
3:32 pm
KatieMcG
YeaHHHHH for ExWren :-)
3:32 pm
Atalante

3:33 pm
Jellen
Congrats, CadFan!!
3:33 pm
Atalante
He played King Lear. We saw it last week
3:33 pm
Uniquity
OOH! Magneto, LOL.
3:33 pm
CadFan
Very old? 1939 - doesn't that make him not even 70?
3:33 pm
Vicuna
Does King Lear involve nudity? I must have watched the wrong production.
3:33 pm
ExWren
Dammit, I missed it, haven't been in for a long time
3:33 pm
Atalante
yes Magneto :D
3:33 pm
KatieMcG
Forgive uni...She has youth on her side & can't help not knowing the people we do :-)

Uni - honestly it wasn't a criticism, more a happy memory :-)
3:35 pm
frogface
hi chrissie, Jenny's on the phone to mum.
3:36 pm
Uniquity
I really dislike the LotR books, so never watched the movies **don't shoot me**
3:36 pm
Jellen
Hi, Chrissie and you're welcome, frogface.
3:36 pm
Atalante
*gasp*! :D
3:36 pm
ChrissieDee
are they both ok?
3:36 pm
frogface
yeah, think so.
3:36 pm
Uniquity
Oh Katie...I am only a young-un. I try to hide it when I don't know what you guys are talking about, lol.
3:37 pm
Vicuna
There will be no shooting. But if you aren't careful there will now be a very long discussion of Valar, Elven Houses, Rings of Power, the territory of the Rangers...
3:38 pm
Atalante
the Valar! Woot! I have to get back to my epic essay on Morgoth and evil in the Sil
3:38 pm
Uniquity
I suffered through 2 and a half books before I quit. It was many moons ago...6 or 7 years, at least. I did like the Hobbit though! The song at the beginning...
3:38 pm
ExWren
thanks katie, hope your mouth soon stops aching. One of mine will be a front one, so I will have to have dentures, I hate the thought of it
3:38 pm
KatieMcG
uni - Completely agree on LofR and have never seen any of the films, never thought I would meet someone who felt the same :-) I liked the hobbit too :-)
3:38 pm
hurshy
funny, i made it through LOTR ok but never can get past the first chapter of hobbit
3:39 pm
Atalante
I have to have a crown soon *shudders*
3:39 pm
Vicuna
Hee hee. Epic essays don't somehow have the same thrill as epic adventures.
3:39 pm
Vicuna
You should try Hobbit again, hurshy. The tone shifts through the book and gets less kiddy pretty soon.
3:39 pm
KatieMcG
to be honest the toothache has been so bad I welcomed the extraction. I'm sure it will be fine Wren adnd you will have shiny new teeth ;-)
3:40 pm
Uniquity
Hmm...let's put it to the test Katie. How do you feel about Shakespeare? And have you read Jasper FForde...also, Alice in Wonderland! There are correct answers, you know :D
3:40 pm
ExWren
I hate the idea of them popping out of my mouth when I am on stage, singing!
3:41 pm
KatieMcG
Quite liked shakespeare at school and when I was doing my degree in economics read his complete works to expand my mind, never read any since and don't watch films of them. Alice in wonderland liked the film, can't remember the book - thought the mad matter needed shooting.
3:41 pm
KatieMcG
Now for your test - Watership Down?
3:42 pm
KatieMcG
Honestly Wren I think they make them fit better than that now :-)
3:42 pm
Uniquity
Katie, mefears you have not passed. Perhaps we ought to just stick to our Tolkien similarities! :)
3:42 pm
frogface
can i have a clue for the first th5,12 please.
3:42 pm
Uniquity
I've never read Watership Down...Ought I have?
3:43 pm
KatieMcG
1st three letters for the one above & not out but **
3:43 pm
ExWren
I live near Watership Ddown
3:43 pm

3:45 pm
Uniquity
Lol...I am an oddity as I dislike Shakespeare. Bores me to tears, nearly. Alice in Wonderland is one of my faves ever though! Never seen the flim...I often have not seen film adaptations of books as I like to let the book stay with me instead
3:45 pm
ExWren
Football has just finished, so I can go downstairs to watch Holby City
3:45 pm
ChrissieDee
katie, thought your picture was a ladle so had a closer look - a ladle full of kittens, so cute. lol
3:45 pm
Uniquity
No Ata...my friend's cat sniffs it and runs away. He's either afraid or REALLY hates it.
3:45 pm
KatieMcG
Is she likely to become president? All our news programmes are leading on the fact that she is getting spanked
3:46 pm
Atalante
sily does too. silly cat
3:46 pm
Vicuna
My cat doesn't like catnip.

hurshy
katie, she's not totally out of it yet, but, i'm just coming up with more reasons for people to vote for barack obama
3:47 pm
hurshy
vi, my cats didn't used to like it and now they do
3:47 pm
Vicuna
Uni, do NOT watch Disney's Alice. It is appalling.
3:47 pm

I get the impression from the emails I receive from the US, that Hilary Clinton is not popular
3:47 pm
ChrissieDee
not female
3:47 pm
frogface
yeahhhh. fireworks
3:47 pm
Uniquity
If I could vote in the States...I'd pick Hilary just because she is a woman, I think.
3:48 pm
Uniquity
Wahoo Frog!!!
3:48 pm
hurshy
nah, uni, you're young, you'd find barack inspiring like the rest of us

3:48 pm
ChrissieDee
congratulations frogface
3:48 pm
frogface
thank you.
3:48 pm
hurshy
she said barack shouldn't give people false hope, which is funny because one of the things i thought about him and why i want him for pres is because i think he's offering realistic hope.
3:49 pm
hurshy
and what kind of a pessimistic attitude is that for a candidate? might as well have me run.
3:49 pm
hurshy
anyway, going home. ttfn.
3:49 pm

Hi, deb@! :-) You got the Kitchen Aid? You will love that more than your washing machine and vacuum cleaner... it is an amazing addition to the house!\
4:23 pm
Uniquity
Every mention of Hilary Clinton was an obvious negative with personal insult added in (not that I know anything about her) and Obama was painted as the man who can heal absolutely anything...not simply the bringer of hope but the be all and end all of presidency. (Again, I know nothing of Obama either)

Hi, peri... no, I still have 17 little renegades to track down... LOL
4:49 pm
periwinkle
do you need clues
4:49 pm
Scarlet
Not right now, peri... I will definitely ask when I hit another wall... I am finding this puzzle much friendlier than yesterday's little gem, though!
4:49 pm
elder
Scarlet,I must remember that when i clue, but as we often spell differently it can be hard to get clues across.
4:50 pm
periwinkle
I will be here a little while, till my cat decides it is time for her dinner
4:50 pm
MLFAN17
peri i have a cat on the floor behind me sleeping
4:51 pm
Scarlet
The spelling is fairly easy to clue: just say "The British spelling" or the American spelling... it's the patois of each country that is the stickler... I learn every day, though, elder!
4:51 pm

my cat is sleeping on the sofa
4:51 pm

4:53 pm

4:53 pm
Scarlet
LOL, elder... you will be fine... you're welcome. If we are here, we are learning!
4:54 pm
periwinkle
2nd ga6 also builds on the ga4/7

MLFAN17

4:56 pm

English is very hard for little ones to spell when they are learning. phonetics is easier .

Oh that isn't fair, Uni... my Dell uses both British and American English spellings as acceptable.

yeah, we have melted the planet, hooray! (not!!)
5:52 pm

Boy does that sound good. I shouldn't complain however as my two kids live about 17 miles from here and they had about 3 feet of snow and fallen trees and lost power for about 24 hours. They had it a lot worse. They are fine now.
5:52 pm
Scrabbler
Are you in No California, BettyAnne?
5:52 pm
BettyAnne
No, Southern Colorado.
5:52 pm
Uniquity
I am off the opinion that the planet has a cyclical environment, not meant to remain constant. Yes, we are doing bad to it, but eventually it will eliminate us and wil heal itself. Ice age, global warming, ice age, global warming. Has no scientific basis, but I like it.
5:53 pm
Scrabbler
In the mtns, BettyAnne?
5:53 pm

Scarlet or anyone -sorry got in a right muddle with the ga/s I need the ga5/16 and the ga6/27 ( the last one)

Scrabbler
Hi Pam!
5:55 pm
mkg
scrabbler can you clue me fe 5/20? i dont have ity
5:55 pm
elder
Uni , I tend to agree i watched a programme where scientists were counter arguing the point made by others. It was very good and made sense.
5:55 pm
Uniquity
I think people should wonder a little more about why things like cancer and terminal disease rates are so high (also byproduct of our great technology) and try to fix that as well as the earth
5:55 pm
mkg
scrabbler i need that fe 5 20 and the 6 33 too
5:55 pm
Scrabbler
It rhymes with the first part of to pass out or swoon.
5:56 pm
elder
Scarlet fe5/ think lots of ships
5:56 pm
Uniquity
I don't disagree that we are destroying the planet...but that's not nearly it.
5:56 pm
elder
Fe / to pretend
5:56 pm
Scrabbler
the fe6 is an extension of the fe5 before it
5:56 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
uni, yup! why does US have such a high cancer rate, not to mention asthma, ADD, peanut allergies, etc
5:56 pm
pam
I think some of the cancer rates being so high is related to all the toxins that are so carelessly released into the environment. I think that a reduction of those emissions and a more careful approach to the environment will have tons of benefits, not the least of which is less polar melting...
5:57 pm
elder
Fe person who does wrong and the thing he/she does.
5:57 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
pam, yup! step one, get private money out of politics. step two . . .
5:57 pm
Scrabbler
Nope, hoover--an fe5 = first 5 letters of that word.
5:57 pm
mkg
mr. aehoover, that is the last name of a friend of mine.
5:58 pm
Uniquity
Oh it is so nice to hear people feeling similarily. People often argue me on this! I have a friend from PEI and together we read the articles on the high cancer and tumor rates in PEI residents, particularly young children. The pesticide usage there has skyrocketted the number of fatal diseases, etc.
5:58 pm
Scrabbler
Then the fe6 has the "sometimes vowel" added to the fe5 just before it.
5:58 pm
mkg
i am not getting the last fe 5/16 or the 6. i have the other two fe 5 words but need help with this last fe 5! thanks

5:59 pm
Uniquity
Brookie, take Dante's river of forgetfulness **d add two more letters!
5:59 pm
Scrabbler
High cancer rates/depression/fatigue/MS in northern latitudes is also correlated to lower sun exposure---> vit D deficiency.
5:59 pm

Scrabbler
Uni---help with Dante's river please.
6:00 pm
mkg
still need clue for en 6 if anyone has it?
6:00 pm
elder
I think the high rate of allergies is due to all the chemicals used in crops etc. We as a western population expect far too much food and instantly, it would do us all good to eat in season and less of it.

No, the RDA is too low and will be raised. Vit D is a potent antioxidant.

IN this country we are seeing children with rickets and other signs of lack of V D - can you believe it. Going back to Dickens times - its not good !!
6:02 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
agree, the RDA is not all that helpful. best course is to eat variety, in moderation. and avoid Tyson chicken!!

Elder, it's interesting you say that, because the last time I landed in London it was the darkest "daylight" I have ever seen, at 11 in the morning
6:03 pm
pam
wow, scrabs...
6:03 pm
Uniquity
Hm. Maybe vit D will help make me smarter and happier in winter? My moods tend to go with the sun and the seasons.
6:03 pm
elder
Scrabbler its so not ok. ..
6:03 pm
pam
we eat too much processed foods...
6:03 pm
Brookie
mkg, it doesn't build on gi5. Take the 1st 3 letters of gi5, and add a small word that means to allow or to permit
6:04 pm
mkg
i think we should make us some great sounding words. like this: gimelony! and gimeloft!
6:04 pm

ty got it brookie. ty ty
6:04 pm

Yes, elder---increasing rates of rickets in kids. Crappy diets. Sunblock lotion.

rickets? holy crap.

Rebecca the thinking is.. a lack of healthy diet and kids staying into much to watch tv and/or play on comps etc.Even here in the winter there is enough of the sun to counteract the deficiency + a good diet.

how do you pronounce mrae? or is it m. rae?
6:15 pm

I have heard the selenium, not melatonin. I take melatonin, a powerful antioxidant, nightly.
6:15 pm
Uniquity
melatonin - that's the happy one, right? Or is that seratonin....why do they have to sound alike?
6:16 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, elder---major behavior problems develop because kids get no limits, consequences, teaching or, the most important of all, leadership.
6:16 pm
elder
Scrabbler, given the research you speak of, would it be beneficial to us all to take more VD as part of a preventative against cancer.
6:16 pm
dan2bit
because they're both tonins :-)

Scrabbler
MAry was a kindergarten teacher before her first child was born.

the problem is that actors are way overpaid & writers way underpaid for what it is they actually do - then you also have the suits taking their outrageous shares of the pie - it's a lot like the baseball strike, where at the end the only people who suffered were the fans

7:27 pm
helenkeller
omg wee - as a landlord too, that's a nightmare i'm always afraid of because the idiots at city hall passed a stupid ordinance a few years ago that said landlords would be responsible for tenants crimes - this as a way to deal with gangs & drugs - it's crazy
7:27 pm
rururocks
Hi all back to finish.. ga 6/27 clue please?
7:27 pm
weegee
Right helen!! I'll be fined for harboring a nuisance if there are 2 more felony arrests of tenants there in the next 2 years...

that's whacked, hk. Why should a landlord be responsible for anyone or anything but themselves and the structure????
7:28 pm

how can you be responsible for your tenants actions, how stoopid is that!!

helenkeller
minver - a different drink - a vodka gi****
7:29 pm
weegee
It is silly, I know, as if one could tell by looking at someone that they'd be apt to commit a crime... but it's meant to encourage landlords to evict once the crime becomes known.
7:29 pm
lil*monkey
minver, the first 3 letters are not *** and tonic. It's gi + double hump consonant + to allow
7:30 pm
herinfernallady
I wish i had a decent landlord.

the thing is though, i think with a woman pres, some men would be uncomfortable, but that post made me think, if we have a black one, he could be at greater risk of assassination attempts, which i doubt would be true of a woman. interesting how discrimination can take such different forms.

Good evening all. I've just watched the mostly uncut version of 'Soldier Blue' for the first time. I was only 13 when the film first came out and I'm glad I couldn't watch it then as I don't think I would have been able to cope with those images at that age. As it is, I'll probably have nightmares.:(

I don't know, Hursh, it is all very thought-provoking
7:54 pm

What is Soldier Blue, Jac?
7:55 pm
Jacula
Pam - It's a 1970 film that makes a fictional account of a true story about how the US Cavalry slaughtered the Cheyenne on the Colorado Plains.
7:56 pm
pam
Oh, nightmare territory indeed!!!!!!!!
7:56 pm
Jacula
The film was made from T.V. Olsen's book 'Arrow In The Sun'.
7:56 pm

don't get it phanmud?
7:57 pm
Jacula
If you didn't see the film, Pam, you might remember its theme tune which was sung by Buffy Saint-Marie.
7:57 pm
hurshy
what's also interesting is that if the weather was bad today, there would have been fewer older voters, and thus less support for hillary... isn't it so weird that the weather on one particular day can be so important
7:57 pm
pam
Oh, right, Jac!
7:57 pm

the th 5/12 is indifinate article + a prepostion

the vote is very very close in NH. SC is the next biggie, i HOPE that the being black factor doesn't hurt barack in the south. whoever you vote for, i would hate for people to vote on a basis like that.

jac, the song you were referring to, was it "bury my heart at wounded knee?"
8:02 pm

Incidentally, I did behave myself whilst watching the film. Instead of yelling, 'You b*st*rd, I hope you rot in hell!' at the General, I simply muttered it... several times.

it's the weather changes, scrabs, I think...

Thank you for all the help.
8:06 pm

Migraines can be nasty. I'm lucky enough to only ever have experienced one. That was when computers first came into the workplace back in the 80s and I was setting the system up and training people. Spent too long at the old-style screen.:(

Son's g/f got a migraine when she was visiting but son gave her one of my other half's 'wonder pills' (Anadin Extra) and it only lasted 2 hours with one bout of sickness rather than all day.

Jacula--I was worried about Bunny Callie this AM---she did not come charging to stairs when I awoke and did not come begging to kitchen for her morning salad. I had to drag her out from under the couch. She did eat. But she is fine since this evening...I am relieved.

Hello again... internet went down and then I got caught up in NH primary results... stunning!!!
8:08 pm

Scrabbs - perhaps she was just feeling a bit lazy. But keep an eye on her. (As if I have to tell you that!) Pet owners are very sensitive to even the smallest changes in their pets' behaviour and often with good reason.

it was tres warm here with a beautiful sunset
8:15 pm
Jacula
Herin - Callie being a house rabbit helps. It gives Scrabbs more chance to notice what's going on with her and the warmth of the house helps, too. Our bunnies' longevity is also down to being in a heated, lighted, well-aired shed with good diet, plenty of exercise and company.
8:16 pm

my kittens appreciate being indoor cats. when we look outside and we see a birdie, we discuss how good a thing it is that they can't go out and kill them, and that way, they will always have birdies to watch
8:18 pm
Jacula
hursh - that can only be good (the democracy). We are very lucky in 'Western society' that we CAN vote democratically and I wish those that 'can't be bothered to vote' would remember this! Some countries force people to vote one way or another.

it's just i DO like mccain, and as i said, supported him in 2000, so, i would pick him over hillary. but i think under any other conditions i am probably voting democratic in the general.

it really is one of the most deeply horrifying things about this country that one of our most senior senators - or is he THE most now? - drove a car into a river, did not attempt to extract his companion, failed to report that the car had gone into the river, so she didn't get any chance of getting help...

i wish they would NOT talk about the gender issue. i think gloria steinem's point is interesting but not necessarily true. how can you disentangle gender from personality, race, eloquence, positions... there are just too many factors to go attributing things just to gender
8:46 pm

that's why they are named sea scallops - truth in advertising keeps them from being called plain old scallops

actually jac i don't think it's just that, either. i mean i thought bush was awful from day 1, but one thing i thought 9/11 really demonstrated was that you don't just need someone you agree with on issues, you need someone who you think has good judgment for whatever MAY come up.

9:02 pm
jillibus
Jac, but where it progressed???
9:03 pm
Dorens
not so much that I hate her, Jilli. I just don't like politicians and she is a consumate politician. wheeler/dealer. She really proved that by not fighting Bush on IRaq
9:03 pm
Jacula
Maybe they hate her because she put up with her husband's crap? Just a thought! They're doing same and wanted her to stand up and lead them out of it?

No, I don't hate her, but if I did, it had nothing to do with her putting up with his crap. What people do in their personal lives is not really our business, and you never really know the real deal regardless of how intrusive our media can be

eie - the grid's quite a nice one.
9:23 pm
hurshy
and there was a study came out said US is last among like, first world nations, in preventable deaths, because of so many people not having access to health care.
9:24 pm
72 Temple Owl
it is horrible. however, there are facts that these sources are not telling you.
9:24 pm
hurshy
for the anecdote, yes. but for the stats...
9:24 pm
Jacula
Don't get me started on insurance companies. Anyone who received my snail mail Xmas letter knows what I think of insurance companies.
9:25 pm
72 Temple Owl
hurshy i have such mixed emotions about this, i can't even begin to discuss them
9:25 pm
Jacula
TO - you and me need to calm down, methinks.((xx))
9:25 pm
hurshy
yeah, i know what you mean, TO. you see the discussions of both sides on house, law and order, etc.
9:26 pm
Tanja
thank you guys fire works here
9:26 pm
eieios
i am starting to think insurance companies are the root of all evil. my dad is a doc and working harder now than ever and making less and less.
9:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
no worries, jacs. my real objective is to finish fast as hell and go to bed
9:26 pm
Jacula
Well done, Tanja.
9:26 pm
hurshy
odd that i hear more informative discussion on current issues on FICTIONAL shows than on the news...
9:26 pm
Tuvagroove
hurshy... of the 42 million that they say don't have health care in the US, only about 7 million don't actually have any access to it. The rest do, but most choose not to get it.
9:26 pm
eieios
he treats cancer and the ins. cos. won't reimburse them for the chemo drugs if they treat patients in their office
9:26 pm
Tanja
you should remeber as my husbandsays insurance companies are in the business of collecting premiums not paying claims
9:27 pm
Tuvagroove
the 18 - 26 year old segment are the worst offenders there... they think they are bulletproof so never get insurance.
9:27 pm
72 Temple Owl
having been in a court case with one for an accident - they will lie and cheat to save their almight $
9:27 pm
pam
congrats, tanja
9:28 pm
carra
back for my last 13
9:28 pm
Jacula
Exactly, Tanja! Which is why MrP and Lickety have had to leave their home, since MrP's 'growth' on her bone was not one of the ones listed in their so-called healthcare security for the future plan.
9:28 pm
hurshy
ack, i should have been in bed already, botheration.
9:29 pm
pam
no pudding tonight, hursh?
9:29 pm
Jacula
hursh - so nice to see a US citizen use one of my fave words... botheration.:D
9:29 pm
pam
access should not be based upon one's seeking it. we should all just have health care, regardless of employment status....
9:30 pm
hurshy
i shall eat a bite or two if things turn around but i wish the college towns would just hurry up and come in so i could know which way it went and go to sleep
9:30 pm
eieios
our insurance company pays for the hospital we go to, but not the docs that treat patients there. how is that okay?
9:30 pm
pam
it is a cool word, hursh and jac. (Cool seems to be my word of the night)
9:30 pm
carra
<<22 and no insurance =/
9:31 pm
Tanja
ty tis a good feeling to finish today as i have been frustrated the lasst 2days knowing that if i had just had an hour to spare i could have finished
9:31 pm
Jacula
carra - fo 6 is the enemy + a male.
9:31 pm
Tuvagroove
pam, health care isn't a right, it is useful, like car insurance.
9:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
ok so to play devil's advocate....my ex in laws have the latest electronics, and everything...lbut won't spend a dime to buy insurance. i ont he other hand, have beentaught to place health first and make the decision to forego luxuries in favor of same.
9:31 pm
pam
what an odd word, jac
9:31 pm
Jacula
y/w, carra.
9:32 pm
hurshy
in my family, having insurance kind of dictates decision making. if i had to choose between a job i didn't like that had insurance and a job i would love that didn't... well, in my mind, i would not really have a choice.
9:32 pm
hurshy
bugger, they're calling it for hillary now.
9:32 pm
Tuvagroove
look at canada, they come here for serious medical treatment, so it is clear that their medical system is not working the way they would like. It is a difficult situation around.
9:32 pm
hurshy
well, NBC is, but CNN not yet.
9:32 pm
Jacula
Not that stange, pam. It is pure angle saxon for an armed man seeking to kill you.
9:33 pm
hurshy
what am i going to do with my pudding now?
9:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
there are too many pepole who have come to rely on the gov to right all wrongs and supply their evey need
9:33 pm
pam
gotcha, jac. Thanks...
9:33 pm
eieios
not hillary, please no!
9:33 pm
Tuvagroove
Temple, you got that one right. Entitlement is their favorite word.
9:33 pm
Bash
so many other countries on this earth have figured out a way to provide health care for all. Yet the US, with all it's resources and brainpower, can't get past the drug and insurance company greed and do the same.
9:34 pm
Jacula
en6 is a code or a puzzle. In WW" they named a code-busting machine that.
9:34 pm
pam
I don't want the gov't to do more than their job. But, i want them to do that, and to be accountable to us. And, I want health care for all. If that means that a portion of our taxation goes to enabling, that so be it. We certainly pay enough....
9:34 pm
Tuvagroove
Bash, what other countries have figured out a functional system of national health care?
9:34 pm
hurshy
the AP has called it for hillary also
9:34 pm
Jacula
pam - I agree.
9:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
i was wondering the same, bash....not ssure how britain's is. thought aussies would be progessive but look at mr. p and lickety
9:35 pm
Tuvagroove
Canada, nope, france, nope, england, nope...
9:35 pm
hurshy
really, of course, it means very little. bill clinton was second in NH, so maybe that's the luckier way to place.
9:35 pm
pam
MRP and Lickety are in Australia...
9:36 pm
Tuvagroove
thailand? wait... afghanastan has national health care... they have it all figured out over there, best care in the world! :P
9:36 pm
pam
I think every system has its problems... Sweden, israel, and Switzerland are rumoured to be among the best, but who knows?????
9:36 pm
NonnieLight
We provide medical care for our military. My husband and father are both retired military and we received excellent care. There is no reason why our government can not provide the same kind of medical care for all. Of course the insurance companies would go belly up.
9:36 pm
Tuvagroove
Cuba has national health care... and communism... so you don't actually get to use it.
9:36 pm
72 Temple Owl
has anyone seen reports on americans gong to thailand for elective medical care - cheaper to fly there and pay out of pocket
9:36 pm
Jacula
tuva - are you the same tuva I once sat up all night with argueing over a 13-year-old child and how you'd spoken to her? Not after starting row again, just wondered.
9:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
clues for the un words please?
9:37 pm
NonnieLight
Yes, and then relax and recover on the beach, TO!
9:37 pm
pam
Actually, tuva, the medical care in Cuba is excellent. Everyone has access, and they go out of their way.
9:38 pm
pam
I saw something where Americans are going to India, too...
9:38 pm
Jacula
un7/40 - deaf, I guess!
9:38 pm
Jacula
un6/27 - unfront a ship?
9:38 pm
Tuvagroove
Americans going to India to steal their medical care! I love the irony! :)
9:38 pm
hurshy
oh gosh, there was a funny quote from mitt romney, he was talking about immigration and how immigrants shouldn't be allowed to stay if they came in illegally - unless they've committed a crime and are in jail. if i'm some starving kid listening to that, i'm thinking, ok, go to america, commit a big crime, and get food, shelter, and health care!
9:38 pm
72 Temple Owl
probelem as i se itpam is that we have no wasy to know objectively from news reports HOW good anyone else's care is.too much slant on news.
9:39 pm
pam
point well taken, TO!
9:39 pm
Tuvagroove
You would have to think that the doctors in cuba would be forced to say that they had excellent care... and cuz we are the American horde, we can't get access to disprove them, Temple! :P
9:39 pm
72 Temple Owl
i thin khe is a smack. after the debate i have totally soured on romney
9:41 pm
72 Temple Owl
i am conservative ny nature and politics. i think peple must bear some responsibility for themselves. not saying no help is needed or that some situations are not untenable
9:41 pm
Bash
Many smaller european countries have national health care in addition to Britain. I believe Canada does also. Perhaps some of our Canadian Babblers can let us know what their system is like.
9:41 pm
Jacula
The news we see is always slanted, as is everything else. The beauty of this internet access is that we can actually talk in person to other folks all around the globe. Sometimes we may get offfended, but then we settle down and realise how that happened. I wish our politicians could do the same (or do they have a quota of males needing to be culled every 50 years or so?).
9:41 pm
pam
another phantom--migraine
9:41 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes that would be very intersting to hear it from the consumer
9:42 pm
Tuvagroove
Bash, canada's health care is horrible, they come here for surgery. They have cheap meds, but lousy care... takes too long to get mediocre service.
9:42 pm
pam
if our politicians could do that, we would be a more peaceful globe, jac
9:42 pm
72 Temple Owl
tuva?
9:42 pm
Tuvagroove
yes, TO?
9:43 pm
72 Temple Owl
did you answer jac's queation? andbtw ty jacs i just got those u words
9:43 pm
Bash
I guess that means we should learn from those conutries' mistakes when implementing our plan here.
9:44 pm
Jacula
Well done, TO.
9:44 pm
Bash
Certainly our system doesn't work, either...
9:44 pm
Jacula
ANd thanks for asking Tuva again.
9:45 pm
Jacula
I mst go to bed very soon, but will await Tuva's reply.
9:45 pm
Tuvagroove
Jac, what question, sorry? Don't see one. Bash, no, our system is not perfect by a longshot. However, trying to force a solution that only causes major problems and hardship does not help either.
9:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
perhaps tuva is named for the capital of mongolia?
9:45 pm
Bash
precisely why we study what's been done wrong elsewhere...
9:45 pm
Tuvagroove
Bingo!
9:46 pm
Tuvagroove
If you collect stamps, she's a beauty!
9:46 pm
Jacula
Tuva - I asked you if you were the same Tuva I once sat up all night with battling over what you'd said to our 13-year-old member, miyavi.
9:46 pm
Bash
Ah, CNN says Hilary wins NH
9:46 pm
hurshy
cnn's called it too. bedtime for me.
9:47 pm
Tuvagroove
Bash, I absolutely agree with that. Study what is being done elsewhere, but don't try to change the existing system until you have a working model to move to. Jac, sorry, I don't know what you are talking about, so I guess not.
9:47 pm
Jacula
Miyavi no longer plays here. But that's not relevant.
9:47 pm
NonnieLight
I agree with you, bash...something better than what we have is longer overdue.
9:47 pm
Bash
Yeah, I'm out too...
9:47 pm
Jacula
Tuva - That's okay and glad to hear it.
9:47 pm
Bash
goodnight all!
