12:46 am

cybernan

12:46 am

stidmama

I thought so too ankh.

12:46 am

dcseain

ty, ankh, for the yi4

12:46 am

stidmama

12:47 am

rururocks

i have to 7 X 2 only

12:47 am

Ankhorite

YW Seain, how you doing? All better yet?

12:47 am

Just1Mar

they'll allow that ank but they won't take ar**

12:47 am

dcseain

eh. think i need to get more antibiotics

12:47 am

Ankhorite

Sorry to hear that - back at work yet?

12:47 am

dcseain

my left ear still ain't right, and i'm still coughing productively. sigh.

12:47 am

stidmama

oh oh seain. *stern mama look* then see the doc in the MORNING!

12:47 am

dcseain

sudafed helping some, but not enough.

12:48 am

rururocks

daisy is a phantom

12:48 am

stidmama

maybe you just need a better decongestant to clear things out. have you tried saline rinses?

12:48 am

Ankhorite

Just1, I don't understand this dictionary at all. For instance, taze, tazer, tase, taser, those should be in there.

12:48 am

jillibus

dc, I'm still coughing too but thank goodness no ear prob

12:48 am

stidmama

no seain, not a phantom. type it correctly...

12:48 am

VolleymomDee

uh ru look again

12:48 am

dcseain

yes, stid, i have, as well as guaifenesin.

12:48 am

Just1Mar

nothing like having 2 double d's in one grid :(

12:49 am

dcseain

ruru, always try to enter before assuming a phantom :P

12:49 am

rururocks

ooops

12:49 am

stidmama

guaifensin is an expectorant, not a decongestant, it wouldn't help the ear

12:49 am

jillibus

ankh, as I perennially whine, "internet" should be in this exasperating "dictionary"

12:49 am

Ankhorite

Txs ruru... :)

12:49 am

dcseain

well, Jasper likes salmon i now know.

12:49 am

rururocks

assume..= ass (outta) U & me..

12:50 am

stidmama

apologies to seain for mistaking him for ruru/vice versa... LOL

12:50 am

rururocks

lol

12:50 am

Ankhorite

"internet" isn't in there? Sheesh!

12:50 am

dcseain

well, stid, what decongestant would you recommend?

12:51 am

jillibus

do6 strikes home, lol

12:51 am

stidmama

the best OTC one is sudafed now -- I hate it but use it when I must. Your doc may know about a prescription one (since I am not a doc or pharmacist I don't know about those)

12:51 am

dcseain

i like the de4/11 word

12:52 am

dcseain

ah, stid, but my issue is the infections are not gone, not just congestion.

12:52 am

stidmama

thanks for that one seain!

12:52 am

stidmama

yes, but sometimes when you clear the breeding ground for the infection (in this case, the snot) then the body can do the rest of the work.

12:52 am

jillibus

nobody with high blood pressure should use sudafed

12:53 am

stidmama

I have naturally low blood pressure, my issue is with the "hyperspeed" effect of sudafed.

12:53 am

dcseain

true, stid. happily, jilli, high blood pressure not an issue for me.

12:53 am

chic

to break up congestion naturally, 1 stop all dairy products and beef

12:53 am

dcseain

aw, feldspar is nesting in a blanket on the couch :)

12:53 am

dcseain

i'm vegetarian, and i minimize my dairy intake when ill, and use my lactase religiously.

12:53 am

stidmama

that's a good idea too chic! but seain (and I) are both bovine-free, so that's not the issue here

12:54 am

chic

2 stand under a shower so that the stream beats on your chest , use the hottest water you can stand for as long as you can stand...

12:54 am

Just1Mar

too bad dc......a good batch of homemade chicken soup would be just what the doctor ordered

12:54 am

dcseain

that only does so much for me too, chic; i do that daily.

12:54 am

MLFAN17

i found the pa 7

12:54 am

Ankhorite

Who's Feldspar?

12:54 am

Ankhorite

partner, or pup?

12:54 am

stidmama

my mother used to put a pot of boiling water (straight from the stove) on the table and put a tent over it and me when I was overly congested

12:55 am

dcseain

she's my siamese; picture in my profile

12:55 am

Ankhorite

Oooh, Siamese!

12:55 am

dcseain

i'm not overly congested; lightly in the chest; barely in the sinuses

12:56 am

jillibus

dc, your Siamese doesn't look like a Siamese

12:56 am

stidmama

{{{hugs}}} then see the doc. kvetch as needed to get this taken care of soonest!

12:56 am

chic

I don't see a siamese, dc; I see a tiger stripe cat..

12:56 am

MLFAN17

i am out of here i have 53 words i found so far good night

12:56 am

dcseain

she is siamese; her litter was half brown tabby and half brown tabby point.

12:57 am

MLFAN17

POOF!

12:57 am

stidmama

1:20 am

rururocks

english

1:20 am

dcseain

neat thing to do with phyllo: grease a muffin tin, line with 3-4 layers of phyllo; put fresh herbs into cup, some egg, pinch shut with a twist with olive-oiled hands, bake about 15 minutes to set the eggs. very nice, easy, seemingly fancy, breakfast thing.

1:20 am

Just1Mar

we have so many wonderful Greek resto;s here in Montreal

1:20 am

GroovyKiwi

im not far away from you andree - my granfather was a shetlander lol

1:23 am

1:24 am

Andree

1:25 am

Just1Mar

In Greece they have wonderful dairy products.....

1:25 am

dcseain

i use walnut oil or grapeseed oil sometimes in salad dressings.

1:25 am

mirandapan

Liz--just about to go to bed, but had to answer your Athens question. What I found when I was there was that ALL the food is good--even fast food, like spanokopita and Greek salad. And some wonderful outdoor places in the Plaka.

1:26 am

Andree

i was born in egypt liz so the couple of times i have been in athens i was a tourist, lol

1:26 am

Just1Mar

retsina and ouzo lol

flosey

I use grapeseed oil for frying

1:26 am

dcseain

yes, it's good for that, too flosey

1:26 am

jillibus

No Loblaws in BC as far as I know. There's a chain with a great name though -- Overwaitea -- isn't that a lulu?

1:27 am

Andree

i do to also avocado iol, i meant for frying etc i only use olive, some cakes call for oil and then i use a vegetable oil, olive is too strong

1:27 am

Just1Mar

yeah sounds like an aboriginal name jilli

1:27 am

lizmac

Apparently, Pssyri is the place to eat now, but we'll certainly be in the Plaka anyway.

1:27 am

dcseain

native word, jilli?

1:27 am

jillibus

ruru, what the H is the matter with canola?

1:28 am

dcseain

i use canola in baking, or for a neutral flavour in things.

1:28 am

Just1Mar

Yeah wanna know that too......it's touted as a very healthy oil here in Canada

1:28 am

Andree

i spoke greek till i was 9 ruru when we came to Australia, i refused to speak it after that and now ofcourse i am sorry

1:28 am

jillibus

No, a conglomeration of Overweight and Tea -- I believe it started as a tea seller by the ounce or something

1:28 am

rururocks

hard on your liver and bad for cholesterol counts

1:29 am

Just1Mar

1:30 am

dcseain

1:30 am

Just1Mar

I dunno they say canola is better than vegetable oil.....

1:31 am

Just1Mar

cvs is a pharmacy yes? dc?

1:31 am

dcseain

canola oil, aka rapeseed oil, is much less processed than standard vegetable oil.

1:31 am

jillibus

Anyway, I eat very little fried food and the spring rolls are an infrequent treat. Not like people who have daily fries with their That

1:31 am

Just1Mar

yes this is my understanding too

1:31 am

dcseain

yes, just, though the sell a fair amount of basic groceries and snacks, too.

1:31 am

Andree

liz you really need to get out of athens to enjoy greece

1:32 am

GroovyKiwi

1:32 am

jillibus

1:32 am

Andree

jilli, i love fried food, maybe another greek thing

1:32 am

Just1Mar

well they are good products dc..even though here in Que we waited many years to have the availability that Ontario had forever...

1:33 am

dcseain

1:33 am

Andree

Just1Mar

just the name of a pharmacy chain in the eastern US jilli

1:33 am

jillibus

I'm not surprised, kiwi, with your diminished appetite these days!

1:33 am

dcseain

CVS stood for Consumer Value Stores - they wore not originally a pharmacy- they were a five and dime.

1:33 am

Andree

ha ha thats neary 1/2 my weight

1:33 am

dcseain

that's why there used to be CVS and CVS/Pharmacy stores. Now they're all pharmacies, and just called CVS.

Just, same here -- and distances (metres etc) -- we're too close to the USA and lbs and oz etc.

1:43 am

Just1Mar

heheh

1:43 am

dcseain

the litter my feldspar was part of was born in 2 sets of 3, two days apart.

1:43 am

GroovyKiwi

we use metric but still easier to measure height in feet lol

1:44 am

GroovyKiwi

this is her 4th litter - she always has them in my bedroom wardrobe in the same spot and always has four kittens lol

1:44 am

Just1Mar

I'm completely comfortable with km/s kg's vis a vis groceries...celcius for temps (although not cooking temps)

1:44 am

dcseain

i find ÂºC more useful in half Âº measure - more precise that is.

1:44 am

Just1Mar

my son get's totally miffed at me when I talk in Imperial measures! lol

1:45 am

jillibus

our kids are supposedly taught only metric in school but I asked grandson (when he was about 20) how tall he was and he said six feet two

1:45 am

Just1Mar

all metric is much more precise dc....but it's what you learned as a child that stays with you

1:45 am

Andree

when my customers want the measurements of a bin iuse the age they sound to answer in feet ore metres

1:45 am

dcseain

i was taught only metric in school, though here, we have yet to go through with the switch, except in science. Sigh.

1:46 am

dcseain

i still find inches/feet/miles rather baffling.

1:46 am

Just1Mar

we were taught imperial ie English measures here....

1:46 am

Just1Mar

so a gallon is not a gallon lol

1:47 am

my nephew's schooling thus far has been all metric, also, come to think of it.

1:48 am

Just1Mar

I'm exactly at the halfway point....no 8's 3 7's and fading fast

1:48 am

jillibus

I was furious with Time magazine's Canadian edition because they used only metric (such and such a person was so-many cm tall and weighed so-many kg) and wrote to them begging for imperial measurements as well about 10 years ago. They igonored me of course, and I had to keep a metric conversion claculator handy so I could figure out what they were talking about. Then suddenly a few months ago, bingo! Now they use both measurements!

1:48 am

Just1Mar

in the states dc?

1:48 am

GroovyKiwi

no eights for me yet

1:49 am

jillibus

no 8s here either

1:49 am

Just1Mar

oh do they jilli? I subscribe to Time but never noticed!

1:49 am

dcseain

Yes, just, in Prince William County, Virginia. Which means that is the case state-wide.

1:50 am

Just1Mar

well the states should go metric....most of the world does metric except great britain?

1:50 am

dcseain

legally, just. except the US, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and one place in Asia.

1:50 am

jillibus

the UK is part metric now I think -- has kept the mile

1:51 am

dcseain

we have some roads in Km here, but not all.

1:51 am

Just1Mar

nasa and all US scientists use metric

1:51 am

dcseain

some states post signage for distance in both.

1:51 am

GroovyKiwi

ok here goes clue for as 8 - its not a word so says dictionary.com lol

1:51 am

jillibus

All science has used metric forever

1:51 am

Just1Mar

our cars show both km's and miles although miles is tiny hard to see.....

1:52 am

GroovyKiwi

a + tv program gets ****icated by a network + estimated time of arrival (abbr)

1:52 am

dcseain

for us the oppisite s true, the Km are tiny and hard to see.

1:52 am

Just1Mar

I guess they included miles for our trips to the states...

1:52 am

Just1Mar

need heavy documentation to get into the states now :(

1:52 am

jillibus

but I like the natural measurements -- a foot is about a foot long. And inch is about the length of your last thumb joint...

1:53 am

dcseain

ty, kiwi :)

1:53 am

Just1Mar

bad bad Canadians......states don't want us there anymore

1:53 am

Andree

thx kiwi

1:53 am

dcseain

i find those confusing and ineligant, myself, jilli, but then again, i didn't ever learn British measuremnt properly. I really only use British for cooking.

1:54 am

jillibus

they're comfy, dc, lol

1:55 am

dcseain

just, the requirements for entry to US are same for US citizens, if that makes you feel any better.

1:55 am

dcseain

yes, i understand that jilli - all what one is used to.

1:55 am

pigeonman

Ok. That as8 is the first time I've seen that word. Hello everyone.

1:55 am

Just1Mar

wow kiwi thx....how'd you ever find that one (blushes over her ignorance at not having a clue) lol

1:55 am

dcseain

i find it odd, living in the first country with a decimalized money system, that we haven't gone that route for measure. *shrug*

1:55 am

jillibus

that's because returning US citizens might have been contaminated by the bad bad Canadians, lol

1:56 am

GroovyKiwi

i cheated and snuck a peek at morewords lol

1:56 am

dcseain

hi, pigeon, and i concur

1:56 am

Just1Mar

good for you kiwi!! :)

1:56 am

Just1Mar

Andree

1:57 am

dcseain

GroovyKiwi

1:57 am

dcseain

LOL jilli.

1:57 am

jillibus

a tv program gets what-icated by a network? All I can think of is forn

1:57 am

GroovyKiwi

jilli another word for selling a tv program to another network or country

1:58 am

dcseain

jilli when it releases the show for sale to other TV outlets

1:58 am

Just1Mar

I have one blank tile, and it's the Y. It's a sneaky one.

2:13 am

Just1Mar

lol it's been so long since I asked, then, that I don't remember lol

2:13 am

GroovyKiwi

the t is a te 4 - think baby bottle

2:14 am

Just1Mar

derogatory term for Jewish people

2:14 am

stidmama

JILL! what are YOU still doing here?!?!? *stern mama look* no wonder you are so tired!

2:14 am

SamanthaJoy

Yowza

2:14 am

GroovyKiwi

2:14 am

Just1Mar

2:15 am

stidmama

SamanthaJoy

sandr

2:17 am

Just1Mar

oh? never saw that. A movie?

2:18 am

SamanthaJoy

Oh, have you never seen it? It's a Monty Python movie, and it's a parody of the life of Jesus as portrayed int he New testament. it's pretty darned good

2:18 am

stidmama

Life of Brian is a Monty Python spoof

2:18 am

jillibus

stid, I just have to get rid of the blank tiles and get that as8 I can't see

2:18 am

Just1Mar

oh thx sandr! sm 6 a tiny little bit

2:18 am

SamanthaJoy

sandr, when I cook pasta, I often add a sm**** of salt to the water i'm boiling, for taste\

2:19 am

sandr

thanx sam

2:19 am

stidmama

I can't see the as 8 either Jill *squinting at grid* but the lower T is a dog's mammary...

2:19 am

stidmama

wow. BIG lag in the chat for me.

2:20 am

stidmama

thanks for the SM!

2:21 am

jillibus

ty stid!

2:21 am

GroovyKiwi

stid = as 8 is a +s***icated tv show + estimated time of arrival (abbr)

2:21 am

stidmama

Life of Brian is pretty much python at it's zaniest and most irreverant... I think probably only true python fans really love it.

2:21 am

SamanthaJoy

It's a motion picture designed to offend two thirds of the world. You have to respect that.

2:21 am

jillibus

the as was clued very well before but I'm too thick to get it.

2:21 am

Just1Mar

do you have any other 8's kiwi?

2:22 am

stidmama

thanks kiwi *thinking*

2:22 am

jillibus

ah -- kiwi just clarified the clue so now I see...

2:22 am

Just1Mar

I love satire. I can handle it!

2:22 am

GroovyKiwi

mi 8 is an extension of the mi 6 which easiest way to say is to count up total incorrectly

2:22 am

SamanthaJoy

There is a scene where Brian is insisting that whoever his father may have been, he's actually Jewish: "I'm not a roman mum, I'm a kike, a yid, a heebie, a hook-nose, I'm kosher mum, I'm a Red Sea pedestrian, and proud of it! "

2:23 am

Just1Mar

ohhh have that kiwi just missing the last one now

2:23 am

2:28 am

sprite

I told you guys I read the last harry potter with my kids, in english, in the mornings, right? We are now nearing the end, it is very exciting. And so my kids decided, all by themselves, to get up 15 minutes earlier each morning so we can read longer. I can't believe them... I have such great kids.

2:28 am

sprite

sweet dreams, Kiwi, and a big hug to you too.

2:28 am

Just1Mar

but that's ok tomorrow's another day

2:28 am

stidmama

so spritely one -- I have daffodils and pink hyacinths in my yard, and the plum is thinking about blooming! glad your kids are such fans of the book -- mine were like that too

2:28 am

Just1Mar

very nice sprite and what a wonderful mom you are!

2:29 am

Just1Mar

I have snowbanks 2 metres high sigh........

2:29 am

stidmama

wow. monkeyed the SY word.... down to 4.

2:30 am

SamanthaJoy

We got a day of snow last year, in April, but that was the first time I had seen it in years. And that's how I like it!

2:30 am

sprite

aw stiddie :) You always inspire me, with your focus on the good and beautiful things in life. *hug*

2:30 am

stidmama

oh Just -- but think how lovely things will be later in the year when you have plenty of groundwater!

2:30 am

sprite

time to build a snowman, Just1, and have hot chocolate afterwards :)

2:31 am

Just1Mar

too much groundwater methinks stid.....just in the last week we had 2 major snowstorms rendering 55cm of snow

2:31 am

stidmama

wow. that's a lot Just *packs large box with hip waders, rubber raft and flares* you'll need these...

2:31 am

sprite

lol Just1, no, not really, but I have great kids. I only suggest things, like the reading. It is them that insist we do it and keep doing it, and I enjoy it so much.

2:31 am

Just1Mar

and don't forget the snow shoes@

2:32 am

Just1Mar

but spritey......they're bilingual....(or more) that's the wonderful part

2:32 am

sprite

and the pre-warmed blanket plus jaeger tea or hot chocolat drink, the cosy warm socks and a fire in the hearth when you get back in.

2:32 am

stidmama

got my last G word, down to three.... *slogging though fish like snowdrifts*

2:33 am

Just1Mar

talk about your global warming NOT...

2:33 am

stidmama

what is jaeger tea?

2:33 am

stidmama

jaeger is a woodcutter?

2:34 am

sprite

it is incredible how fast kids pick up a foreign language at this age. My daughter had not even had one single english lesson at school when we started, and now she understands harry potter, with only needing an occasional translation of a word.

2:34 am

Just1Mar

never mind the hot choco.....gimme gin better!

2:34 am

sprite

lol. Jaeger tea is tea with rum.

2:34 am

stidmama

mmm. *licking pirate lips*

2:34 am

sprite

a jaeger is a hunter, stid

2:34 am

Just1Mar

prob great with gin too!

2:34 am

sprite

most things are good with gin

2:35 am

Just1Mar

I like my rum tropical aka pina coloda

2:35 am

sprite

aw, pina colada, lovely

2:35 am

stidmama

thanks sprite... I know my remembrance of words is pretty bad these days. Need to start reading a bit again, just to get basic vocab back in mind.

2:36 am

Just1Mar

we were very fortunate to go to Acapulco in Jan....however at this point in time it seems like a lifetime ago.....sigh

2:36 am

sprite

only do it if it brings you pleasure to do so, stid.

2:36 am

stidmama

okay, falling back on whining for my last three. need the second DE 6, the 6/27 please

2:36 am

yellowflowers

i see words that they say dont exist but they do

2:37 am

stidmama

It does bring me pleasure sprite, but like the conversation we had (in my morning) yesterday, sometimes when depressed even things that bring pleasure are difficult to start and keep up with.

2:37 am

sprite

yellowflowers, hi. It is Enable, the dictionary used for this game. It is outdated and totally weird. No predicting what will be accepted and what won't.

2:37 am

stidmama

yes yellowflowers... that is a common complaint here!

2:37 am

sprite

I know, stid, I know. *hug* Keep faith, hun. You are my inspiration in how to handle depression.

2:37 am

yellowflowers

maybe im not playing right :-) but how come you can spell Asia? That's a word, right and it starts from the 4th A at the bottom! Hmm thanks stidmama, I thought I was seeing things :-)

2:38 am

sprite

actually, yellowflowers, it is a bonus to this game. You get to rant and rave at the dictionary for free :D

2:38 am

stidmama

proper nouns are generally not accepted, unless there is a form that is used without the capital letters

2:38 am

sprite

asia is capitalised, so will not be accepted.

2:38 am

yellowflowers

hee hee hee..well thats good :-)

2:38 am

yellowflowers

ahhh! I see!

2:39 am

yellowflowers

Ahhh! I see...

2:39 am

stidmama

there is some really good help at http://www.freewebs.com/angelsong/ not just the regular help and info from this site, but also some hints and tips from experienced players

2:39 am

sprite

I feel SO smug when I see internet in the grid and can yell at enable for not accepting it. Or blog.

2:40 am

Just1Mar

sorry to hear that things are sad for you stid......I can relate well

2:40 am

stidmama

my little dog is whining at me because I am not asleep yet...

2:40 am

sprite

tell doggie to give the good example

2:41 am

stidmama

oh, it's just the time of year, Just -- seasonal depression. It lifts temporarily on sunny days and falls again (hard, this time of year) when the clouds close over again. It will lift, as it always does, when I get a couple weeks' sun

2:41 am

Just1Mar

If I was a morning person I'd get a dog in a heartbeat

2:41 am

Just1Mar

but now that I'm an empty nester, well, what can I say

2:41 am

Ankhorite

I'm back for a minute... can anyone give me a boost on ga6,30? Is it related to any of the other words?

2:42 am

sprite

you should consider a daylight lamp or even better, the kind that imitates early sunrise, stid.

2:42 am

sprite

hi Ankh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Missed you!

2:42 am

Ankhorite

Hiya, Sprite!

2:42 am

stidmama

well, I would be happy to sleep in most days, but between the kids and Tom and me, usually there is someone ready to wake up when the critters are

2:42 am

stidmama

hello again ankh! it means cheerfulness, like the lively spirit at a party

2:42 am

sprite

lol Just1, if you love sleeping in, enjoy it. And some dogs adept easily to that.

2:43 am

Ankhorite

Before I got a dog, we had to get a door she could open herself. Worked out great, but oooh la! expensive!

2:43 am

Just1Mar

well we're back in daylight savings time spritey, even though it feels and looks like early January here.....

2:43 am

Ankhorite

Stiddy, thank you, I never would have gotten that.

2:43 am

stidmama

any chance you can help with the SA 6 or the DE 6/27?

2:43 am

Ankhorite

Okay, I have the first and the last IM words. Are the three in between related to them at all? Or related to each other?

2:44 am

Just1Mar

can't have doggy doors here....too damn cold plus wet dirty paws :(

2:44 am

stidmama

the middle IM words look like chemicals

2:44 am

Ankhorite

Nope on the SA6...nope on the DE6 too.

2:44 am

stidmama

similar to the AM chemicals

2:44 am

stidmama

well fiddlesticks. okay, thanks ankh

2:44 am

Ankhorite

Well, we had to deal with the wet dirty paws, but the door itself locked after her -- her collar controlled it -- and was airtight.

2:45 am

Ankhorite

Thanks, stiddy, got one already (IM word) from your help

2:45 am

stidmama

*grumble* will be here, but lurking for a few.

2:45 am

Just1Mar

oh? sounds interesting....guess I'm not up on my doggy doors lol

2:45 am

sprite

woot Ankh, that is sophisticated

2:46 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, she was a big girl, and a non-locking door would have been big enough for a slender human robber.

2:46 am

Just1Mar

wow ank ...in what state do you live?

2:47 am

Just1Mar

Virginia? DC?

2:47 am

Ankhorite

http://www.hitecpet.com/autpetdoorfo.h
tml there you go

2:47 am

Just1Mar

Maryland?

2:47 am

Ankhorite

Northern VA, five miles south of Dulles, Just1

2:47 am

Ankhorite

About six miles south of where DCSeain lives

2:48 am

sprite

*follows chat closely, wondering why the state Ankh lives in is important for the petlock*

2:48 am

Just1Mar

heheh I seem to have figured that out from your profile description...

2:48 am

stidmama

back again. cleaned the dog's ears. maybe she'll stop whining now

2:48 am

Just1Mar

Have you ever met him????

2:49 am

Ankhorite

Poor pup... my dog's ears were a bother to her, also.

2:49 am

Ankhorite

Nah, but my partner has.

2:49 am

Just1Mar

spritey.....cause wanted to know how snowy it was in that part of the country

2:49 am

sprite

aw, I see, lol Just1. Thanks :)

2:50 am

Just1Mar

I assume not that snowy but prob wet and dirty

2:50 am

Ankhorite

It depends on whether it's a drought winter or not, Just1. The most snow we've had here is about 10"

2:50 am

Ankhorite

But that was rare. What we usually get is 1 or 2 inches, or rain, and mud mud mud

2:50 am

stidmama

she has chronic infections. They cleared for a while, but then the pet food recall meant we had to switch from the best food ... so the funguses had a field day. When the food came back on the market, it was a slightly different formula. *shrug* so I clean her ears often and just sorta hope it's not too horrible. Can't afford vet bills every two weeks!

2:50 am

Ankhorite

We set the door up in the laundry room and put cruddy old rugs down. By the time she got to the kitchen, most of the mud would be off.

2:51 am

sprite

aw, stid :(

2:51 am

Just1Mar

wow 10 in all winter.....we've had 9 major snowstorms this winter of over 20 in!

2:51 am

stidmama

good idea, ankh! I wonder if that would work for us (once we get a fence, that is)

Ankhorite

Oh, yeah, we had to get the fence before we could get the dog. We waited a long time to get her. I miss her so much.

2:52 am

stidmama

oh, I am just HATING these last three words! *stomps angry mama feet*

2:53 am

Ankhorite

de, s, and what else?

2:53 am

nancethefan

good morning my babble friends

2:53 am

Just1Mar

The way our home is built I don't think we could do a doggy door :(

2:53 am

stidmama

the stoopid TO 8.

2:53 am

Ankhorite

Mornin', Nance.

2:53 am

sprite

*grins*
You are SO cute, when you throw your little tantrums, stiddie.

2:53 am

stidmama

hello nance! you're up early!

2:53 am

sprite

hi nance

2:53 am

Ankhorite

Nope, don't have that either. I have 30 left and a bad case of the stupids.

2:53 am

stidmama

not cute! NO NO NO!!!! *wails and throws body on sofa -- the floor being too hard*

2:53 am

nancethefan

hey ankh, sprite & stid

2:53 am

Just1Mar

Oh did something happen to her???

2:53 am

Ankhorite

Just1, did you go to the website and see the animation?

2:54 am

sprite

and smart too, stiddie. I admire that in a woman :)

2:54 am

Ankhorite

No, Just1, Stiddy's just pouting. :)

2:54 am

stidmama

I am sorry your dog is not with you any more ankh...

2:54 am

nancethefan

yep - i woke up every 2 hours last night - so it's getting better than every hour - LOL

2:54 am

Just1Mar

no sorry ank must have missed that...the chat's going so fast and it is 4am here

2:54 am

stidmama

I love my critters (and kids) annoying though they are at times

2:54 am

sprite

lol nance... *hug*

2:54 am

nancethefan

hey just

2:55 am

stidmama

rofl, nance! good for you!

2:55 am

nancethefan

huggggggggsssssssss back atcha :o)

2:55 am

Just1Mar

hi nance

2:55 am

Ankhorite

Thanks, Stid. We're on a waiting list. But my needs are very specific: I need a female, old, with disabilities.

2:56 am

stidmama

you could have my little fungal-ear dustmop... she's about 16 years, deaf as a post, about as smart as a post, and a little gimpy from arthritis

2:56 am

nancethefan

that sounded lie me - LOL

2:56 am

nancethefan

lol stid

2:56 am

sprite

why is that, Ankh? So you can give her a great last part of her life?

2:57 am

sprite

lol stid and nance

2:57 am

stidmama

I am thinking being ankh's pup would not be a bad thing...

2:57 am

nancethefan

brb - baby girl needs to go out

2:57 am

Ankhorite

Oh, my dogs live like queens.

2:58 am

Just1Mar

I am thinking I'd better go to bed cause I don't know what anyone's talking about anymore!

2:58 am

stidmama

(speaking of dogs...)

2:58 am

stidmama

neither do we Just... we're merely "babbling"

2:58 am

Ankhorite

Sprite, I'm disabled, need an elderly dog I can keep up with. Need one who can't climb the fence. My breed is large and notorious; very high energy until age 9 or so.

2:58 am

sprite

never knew that was required

2:58 am

Ankhorite

Stid, I know you're not giving away your girl! Fungus-y or not!

2:58 am

stidmama

what is the breed? wolfhound? dane? shepherd?

2:59 am

Just1Mar

lolol stid .....okay don't feel so dumb anymore

2:59 am

sprite

ah, I see, Ankh. Kind of the same reasons we are going to need a very small and light dog.

2:59 am

stidmama

true enough ankh -- once rescued, my critters are secure!

2:59 am

Ankhorite

German Shorthaired Pointers

http://www.mdgsprescue.org/a
vail.htm

2:59 am

stidmama

hey! my dustmop is also small and (sorta) light....

2:59 am

Ankhorite

I would LOVE a wolfhound!

3:00 am

stidmama

oh! those are GORGEOUS dogs -- but yes, I recognize the ones I have seen as rather more needing attention than I am able to give.

3:00 am

stidmama

dustmop would be lighter if she didn't eat everything in sight.

3:01 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, they do well in a house with a runner. We fostered a "young" 8-year-old for two weeks -- my husband had to walk her four miles a day.

3:01 am

stidmama

A friend has Irish wolfhounds, they are sweet creatures, but come up well above my waist!

3:01 am

Just1Mar

goodnight/day/morning my babblebuds.....must have sleep now. Take care and have a good one!

3:01 am

sprite

we have decided upon King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. Now all we need it for hubby to go along. And we all know how that will end, if wife and kids want it...

3:02 am

stidmama

sweet dreams, Just -- be well and stay warm!!! *adds a pile of scarves, hats and mittens to box with raingear*

3:02 am

sprite

*it = is

3:02 am

Just1Mar

majority rules spritey!

3:02 am

stidmama

those are pretty dogs too sprite!

3:02 am

Just1Mar

thx stid

3:02 am

sprite

bye Just1 *hug*

3:02 am

Just1Mar

ciao now poof

3:02 am

Ankhorite

Will you get it from the King Charles Rescue League?

3:03 am

Ankhorite

Night, Just1!

3:03 am

sprite

never heard of those, Ankh?

3:04 am

Ankhorite

http://netpets.org/dogs/dogresc/breeds
/dogcavkc.html

3:04 am

stidmama

maybe dog just needs out (strange for this time of day) will check if she wanders by again.

3:04 am

Ankhorite

You get a purebred dog who has been rescued, usually from a shelter, divorce, or owner dying / going to nursing home.

3:04 am

stidmama

yep. here she comes. brb

3:04 am

stidmama

nope, detoured to her bed, I think.

3:04 am

nancethefan

back

3:05 am

stidmama

my shepherd was a private rescue -- grabbed him before he reached the pound. It was a good thing for him, but he is so attached to me, so weirded out by being left even for an hour at the vet that I can't even take a vacation with Tom along because I can't board him anywhere.

3:05 am

sprite

I was thinking of getting one as a pup, so we will know he has been brought up well and had us a his first and last owners...

3:05 am

herinfernallady

Hello

3:05 am

stidmama

hello lady

3:06 am

sprite

hi lady! *hug*

3:06 am

herinfernallady

How are you all

3:06 am

Ankhorite

Oh, wait... I don't have Netherlands league info... but you can look around there. Yes, rescue leagues sometimes have pups.

3:06 am

Ankhorite

Infernal, hiiii! But I have to go now.

3:06 am

SamanthaJoy

Clue for the de 6/27? I'm dying over here

3:06 am

stidmama

it's certainly easier to have a dog that has been brought up "right" sprite, but there's also a real sense of purpose in taking an older, less adoptable dog. IF you have the strength and patience.

3:06 am

herinfernallady

Hi Ank

3:06 am

stidmama

brb -- she's here again.

3:06 am

herinfernallady

Stid you got a new puppy?

3:07 am

SamanthaJoy

*I* have a rescue dog who's currently trying to tunnel underneath my front door

3:07 am

Ankhorite

Stid, I understand about his separation anxiety... maybe you could take him to a dog trainer about it? Because interfering with marital vacations is Not Cool. Okay, gotta go! (And oh yes, I MUCH prefer a dog past the "terrible twos" to a young pup!)

3:07 am

sprite

nope, it is an american site, I see. Will check if we hae something like it.

3:07 am

Ankhorite

Yay for you, Samantha! What kind? And then I GOTTA go...

3:08 am

sprite

lol Ankh, *hug*

3:08 am

herinfernallady

Stid was that at me?

3:08 am

SamanthaJoy

but I'm not going to let her in until someone gives me a clue for the de 6.27--BE IT ON YOUR HEADS!

3:08 am

SamanthaJoy

Oh, mine are both mutts. They'

3:08 am

nancethefan

ankh - i wrote down that website - what's it for?

3:08 am

SamanthaJoy

There are a few rescue groups in the area that specialize in mixed breeds

3:08 am

nancethefan

hey samantha

3:08 am

Ankhorite

:: laughs :: No one here HAS a clue for the DE6. What kinda mutts? Er, what kind of All-Americans? Er, what kind of random-breds?

3:08 am

SamanthaJoy

The one who has the separation anxiety is a newfoundland mix, but she

3:08 am

SamanthaJoy

is only about 40 pounds

3:09 am

nancethefan

hey herin

3:09 am

Ankhorite

Nance, the website is for King Charles Cavalier Spaniel rescue leagues.

3:09 am

stidmama

thanks ankh -- I may just be desperate enough for that...

3:09 am

herinfernallady

Stid was that comment at me?

3:10 am

stidmama

I think she's just being senile -- figures if I am up in the middle of the night it must be early morning (read: breakfast time)

3:10 am

Ankhorite

and this one is for my dog door, watch the animation halfway down the page:

http://www.hitecpet.com/autpetd
oorfo.html

3:10 am

nancethefan

ok thank you

3:10 am

stidmama

which comment lady? I have been chattering about my senile old whining, pacing dog!

3:10 am

Ankhorite

Infernal, I think she means her dog is back?

3:10 am

sprite

no lady, it was at her dog.

3:11 am

SamanthaJoy

The other one's an Australian Shepherd mix, and if he were human he'd be seeing a therpaist and possibly on meds.

3:11 am

Ankhorite

Awww... they sound like good dogs, Samantha

3:11 am

herinfernallady

ok

3:11 am

herinfernallady

Ok i walked in wrong oops

3:11 am

herinfernallady

How is puppy

3:12 am

SamanthaJoy

I adore them both. Can't imagine life without my neurotic, needy dogs

3:12 am

herinfernallady

Pulls undies out of butt and starts again

3:12 am

nancethefan

i wish i could volunteer at an animal shelter. I can't bear to see any put down - i live in an apartment, and I'm only allowed one pet. I would have to bring many home to save them.

3:12 am

herinfernallady

Sam my kitty is a rescue. My g.f has 4 prue breed rescue puppys

3:12 am

Ankhorite

Exactly. My heart aches for a new dog, but we know it's better to have a long wait than a bad match. :(

3:12 am

stidmama

let's see -- a six letter word worth 27 points means the tiles total to 9. if the first two tiles are worth three points, then the remaining four tiles are going to be 1,1,1,3 or 1,1,2,2. *scratches head* is this correct?

3:12 am

sprite

lol lady, ok. Sweet butt you have. So how are you today?

3:12 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, Nance, I can't visit shelters. I can't bear it.

3:13 am

Ankhorite

We picked up the 2-week foster dog from a shelter and I thought I was going to be sick in the parking lot.

3:13 am

redturtlehead

Hi all. nance y ou are up very late, or I guess very early?

3:13 am

stidmama

no undies in today's grid lady -- I think you're safe!

3:13 am

sprite

I'd say yes, stiddie. Does that help?

3:13 am

stidmama

hello red -- any more word on florida?

3:13 am

sprite

hi red!

3:13 am

SamanthaJoy

yes, stid, I think it is. I'm diving back in

3:13 am

Ankhorite

Yes, Stid, on the count.

3:13 am

stidmama

oh ankh... you're too kind-hearted

3:13 am

Ankhorite

I gotta go... really!

3:13 am

redturtlehead

Everything is all set Stid, except for the license, which should be hopefully soon...

3:13 am

herinfernallady

HI Red.

3:13 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, I'm a big giant horrid sissy.

3:14 am

redturtlehead

How are you? and the stid kids?

3:14 am

stidmama

okay, maybe. trying to think analytically with an artist's brain is hard work!

3:14 am

sprite

so am I, Ankh, I sympathise completely

3:14 am

Ankhorite

:: goes to lie down with partner and big stuffed dog :::

3:14 am

stidmama

I am sick, stid kids appear to be either healthy or getting there. *grin* at least I was sick on two days "off"

3:14 am

Ankhorite

See you in the morning!

3:14 am

nancethefan

hey red - i'm up early - i slept in two-hour intervals last night

3:14 am

nancethefan

bye ankh - tc & hb

3:14 am

herinfernallady

I want to buy the kitty at the pet store as its been there for so long. I know that sounds sad as i hate pet stores but i would love to give him a home

3:15 am

sprite

enjoy, Ankh!

3:15 am

stidmama

good red! Hope that process goes faster than molasses!

3:15 am

stidmama

later ankh!

3:15 am

SamanthaJoy

I got it, fireworks, but I have never heard this word before

3:15 am

Ankhorite

Thanks for the chat and clues, all!

:: P O O F !! ::

3:15 am

redturtlehead

Well, they have to give me an answer within 30 days...but hopefully within 3 weeks. Will call tomorro...

3:15 am

SamanthaJoy

bye ankh

3:15 am

herinfernallady

Later Ank

3:15 am

sprite

wouldn't your kitty mind, lady?

3:16 am

nancethefan

yay samantha - ta da

3:16 am

herinfernallady

Likely Sprite but this kitty is so pretty and i would love to take him home as hes been in this box for ages

3:16 am

SamanthaJoy

OK, now that I have fireworks it's time for me to offer clues before I go on to bed myself. Anyone need anything?

3:16 am

herinfernallady

Yah Sam

3:16 am

redturtlehead

this grid looks pretty hard, yes?

3:16 am

redturtlehead

I'm at 28 words...

3:17 am

SamanthaJoy

I mean, personally I need a shot of vodka. But does anyone need CLUES?

3:17 am

stidmama

YES!!!! DE 6/27 and SA 6/27 and the TO 8 (pretty please with sugar on top)

3:17 am

stidmama

it's not hard until the last ten or so red... just weird in a few places

3:17 am

nancethefan

not gotten far enough (i just looked down & i don't have a single word yet - lol) to receive clues - but thank you samantha

3:17 am

stidmama

oh. and YAY samantha joy!

3:17 am

sprite

lol Sam, I just found the stupid as and to biggies thanks to the earlier chat. Or I would have had to ask... totally stooooopid words. Sleep well and sweet dreams!

3:17 am

stidmama

go nance go!

3:18 am

nancethefan

LOL stid

3:18 am

herinfernallady

so mum can i have the kitty

3:18 am

SamanthaJoy

de 6/27 = de + curvy letter + Malcolm in the ***dle

3:18 am

stidmama

yes lady -- it's technically a rescue in that situation, but are you sure you can afford her?

3:18 am

sprite

sure lady... if you can have 1, you can have 2, I always say...

3:18 am

stidmama

thanks for that DE! *begins to relax*

3:19 am

herinfernallady

Him and no.

3:19 am

herinfernallady

:(

3:19 am

SamanthaJoy

sa 6/27 = sa + first person prounoun + derogatory term for Jews

3:19 am

stidmama

I was afraid it might have been fishy...

3:19 am

stidmama

and the sa... LOL not in the mood for fish tonight anyway!

3:19 am

SamanthaJoy

to 8 = to 5 + the three letter suffix that usually denotes a religion

3:20 am

herinfernallady

I have not asked to pet him as i will find the $150 to take him home. He is a tuxedo kitty and fluffy with a really long tail

3:20 am

nancethefan

ok - since the green box below the "Add Word" area says "Let the games begin", i think i will try that - lol

3:20 am

stidmama

hm. {{{lady}}} I know how you feel... I am on restriction from bringing home any more critters unless and until we get more income.

3:20 am

sprite

lol nace

3:20 am

stidmama

THAT's a wurd???? *sigh* thanks SamanthaJoy! I have liftoff!!!!

3:20 am

nancethefan

awwwww herin - i love animals

3:20 am

redturtlehead

150 is an outrageous amount for a cat!

3:21 am

sprite

argh, that is ridiculous for a cat!

3:21 am

SamanthaJoy

You found all three of them? There are some stupid words in this grid

3:21 am

stidmama

that does seem like a lot. Does he come with a gold-plated litter box?

3:21 am

herinfernallady

I think that includes shots but i think about $120

3:21 am

stidmama

I am like, TOTALLY done, thanks to you! *gives new best friend a slice of cake*

3:21 am

sprite

wtg stiddie!!!!

3:21 am

herinfernallady

Yah Stid.

3:22 am

stidmama

well if he comes with shots already that makes it better.

3:22 am

SamanthaJoy

hee hee. Anyone else need clues before i go poof?

3:22 am

stidmama

enjoying the video today

3:22 am

herinfernallady

Then again i have my lovely kitty and i can just hope that this one gets a home

3:22 am

herinfernallady

Night Sam

3:22 am

redturtlehead

Still....that is really a lot of cash for a tuxedo kitty as much as you like him, that would cover a lot of groceries.

3:22 am

herinfernallady

That and my kitty has been soooooooo cute today

3:22 am

stidmama

true lady -- being grateful for what we actually already have is a good thing.

3:22 am

SamanthaJoy

G'night ::POOF::

3:23 am

stidmama

sweet dreams samanatha

3:23 am

stidmama

wow. my typing skills are really bad tonight. *sigh* but my tummy doesn't want me to lie down yet

3:23 am

sprite

lady, I think you are right about that. Your kitty is a wonderful one and has a good home with you. And this other kitty... if you pray it will get a great owner, you are doing all you can.

3:23 am

sprite

night Sam!

3:23 am

herinfernallady

Kitty did the I am going to claw the couch whilst looking at me so i said ' Dont even think about it' then she jumped up on the couch and unto my lap for a cuddle

3:24 am

stidmama

oh lady, that is so cute! kids will do the same thing you know...

3:25 am

herinfernallady

Shudder no thanks shes my fur kid

3:25 am

nancethefan

i poofed out of here last night suddenly & couldn't say bye to y'all. my computer was being naughty.

3:25 am

sprite

bad computer.

3:26 am

stidmama

oh nance, I hate it when computers act up. It's worse than the TV signal going!

3:27 am

nancethefan

after that, i got my quilt out & began folding in the sides of it so i can machine stitch the sides. I was so happy from your encouragement yesterday. I'm going to work on it later today also.

3:27 am

herinfernallady

THats great Nance

3:28 am

nancethefan

i know & i saw Lady saying "u can't leave" & poof - i was gone

3:28 am

stidmama

good for you nance! I am encouraged from our conversation also... but not feeling well enough to act on it. :-( hoping that by tomorrow afternoon I will have the energy to at least pull out my cardstock and cut a few stencils.

3:28 am

sprite

yay, another quilter! I have a friend whose mother makes such great ones. I would love to learn.

3:28 am

redturtlehead

Grrr, I find this grid to be more difficult than I wanted it to be.

3:28 am

sprite

stiddie, just be good to yourself and don'

3:28 am

sprite

don't push things.

3:29 am

herinfernallady

Red dont think

3:29 am

nancethefan

it really is herin - i used to craft constantly - with all of you encouraging me, i have faith the i will get there again

3:29 am

sprite

red, absolutely. This grid stinks. BIG time.

3:29 am

herinfernallady

I found my cross stitch the other day so im happy

3:29 am

redturtlehead

ty sprite, i agree!!!

3:29 am

herinfernallady

OH that was me fantastic Nance

3:30 am

nancethefan

i hope so too stid - please feel better quickly

3:30 am

kje

any one have the as 8/55?

3:30 am

stidmama

I won't push sprite -- I know better. But I want to do my "job" volunteering on Friday, so might push just a little then.

3:31 am

sprite

as long as you realise that after a push like that, you will need cuddling :)

3:31 am

stidmama

good for you lady! I used to enjoy cross stitch, just don't have the patience for it at the moment.

3:31 am

nancethefan

sprite - can you sew with a sewing machine?

3:31 am

sprite

hi kje, yes. And it is a stoooopidhead word.

3:31 am

sprite

I can, nance

3:31 am

nancethefan

hey kje & nopers

3:31 am

kje

hello

3:32 am

sprite

a + the mob is a crime s**ndicate + first 2 letters of not alive + brits thank you.

3:32 am

stidmama

the as is weird. A + s**chronous (in the right time) + first two letters of "unalive" word + first two letters of what you eat at

3:32 am

redturtlehead

hi kje.

3:32 am

mrpresident

evening babble friends :)

3:32 am

sprite

hey mrP! Are you home?

3:33 am

redturtlehead

TY Sprite and Stid. Hellllloooo mr P.

3:33 am

stidmama

hello mrp! did the kids behave?

3:33 am

nancethefan

i taught myself how to quilt. Seach for a basic quilting book that comes with simple patterns. i use 100% cotton material - now don't get discouraged if it is not perfect - it's quilting and we are human - lol

3:33 am

mrpresident

I am home, got home yesterday at 3.30pm. went to sleep at 4 and didn't see the sunset or rise!

3:34 am

kje

thank you!

3:34 am

mrpresident

yes stid! the stern look worked a treat!

3:34 am

sprite

lol mrP, you really needed that. Welcome home, hun. May you get better and better each second, until you are as good as you want to be.

3:34 am

redturtlehead

Welcome Home mr P, nice to be in your own bed?

3:34 am

nancethefan

if you need help with anything, i will b happy to help if i can. Even figuring how much of each color material you need (if the book doesn't tell you).

3:34 am

stidmama

good advice, nance -- my mother in law (who grew up quilting) says the same things. And use cotton batting as well -- esp if you are going to hand-quilt, because the polyester stuff is really hard to sew through.

3:35 am

mrpresident

and, I actually yelled at someone at the school!! I went off like a frog in a sock at this terrible parent!
Lickety almost had to drag me into the car.

3:35 am

nancethefan

hey mr.

3:35 am

stidmama

:-D willing to teach my patented "stern mama look" to any and all!

3:35 am

sprite

lol nance, that is my worst setback. I am a total perfectionist. I am known to undo a whole front of a knitted sweater because there is one piece of the pattern out of line.

3:35 am

stidmama

oh my goodness, mrp! I guess you don't need teaching then!

3:35 am

sprite

I think I got it down pat, stiddie ;)

3:35 am

mrpresident

love my bed.... my bed is my haven :D

sprite, that is pretty normal for a knitter! LOL

3:35 am

redturtlehead

MrP sounds as if you are in stride.

3:36 am

stidmama

maybe that's why my knitting never turns out so well! LOL

3:36 am

sprite

hehehe mrP, knitters are usually perfectionists indeed.

3:36 am

herinfernallady

MR PRESSSSS

3:36 am

mrpresident

LOL! I am certainly back in stride! Can't keep me down

3:36 am

mrpresident

infern!! how are you today ? :)

3:36 am

redturtlehead

Any clue for the second Z, I have the greek letter.

3:36 am

herinfernallady

I love cross stitching i dont have time at the moment. Will make time soon

3:37 am

redturtlehead

ooooh. I got it I think.

3:37 am

redturtlehead

Z is completed.

Im sitting here grossed out from my housemate

4:02 am

nancethefan

i'm not sure of the real name of the design but it is like steps. I used six shades & patternss of purple going from darkest to lightest. They are approx. 2" wide & 6" long. I sew blocks of these 6 different shades & then sew the six-color blocks together in a pattern of gives the illusion of stair steps. Have y'all ever seen a quilt of that pattern?

Hi Andree!

4:14 am

nancethefan

hey andree

4:14 am

Andree

i have just spent 45 minutes trying to work out how to set a mouse trap

4:14 am

herinfernallady

Is it non lethal?

4:14 am

Andree

simple when i worked it out

4:15 am

Andree

jean1953

4:16 am

lynxxx

4:16 am

lynxxx

Hi Jean

4:16 am

Andree

i have had a mouse in the house for about 6 weeks, i keep leaving the doors open but the only time it ran out, it ran straight back in

4:16 am

herinfernallady

Non lethal means you can put them out somewhere else less annoying

4:16 am

herinfernallady

HI jean

4:17 am

Andree

4:17 am

redturtlehead

4:18 am

nancethefan

morning jean - were you born in 1953?

4:18 am

lynxxx

No - just logical and practical

4:19 am

herinfernallady

Traps break their spines leaving them to die in agony and poisons kill the mice slowly and can poison other animals

4:19 am

Andree

ihave no other choice, i would say it must be practically starving, when the grandchildren have been here and leave crumbs all over ,the mouse goes crazy

4:19 am

mrpresident

4:47 am

Andree

i think considering the bone hasn't knitted when you have been so careful, can't see how the bike would be of any harm

4:47 am

nancethefan

:o)

4:47 am

herinfernallady

People really are Tw plus picnic pests

4:47 am

mrpresident

ah, a tasser!! now that is a thought!

4:48 am

herinfernallady

I got asked to stand up when i took over two seats when i had stitches in my knee. Crutches more fun as you can smack people

4:48 am

mrpresident

4:51 am

herinfernallady

Poor Mr Pres.

4:51 am

mrpresident

well, the other option was ligature marks... fresh wrist marks don't bode well with doctors.... but that is all I can do to stop itching

4:51 am

Andree

why are you itching

4:52 am

mrpresident

oh andree, you saw the set up! I am reacting to the opsite dressing... need to fix that

4:52 am

mrpresident

me sitting around in my undies :D sorry bout that! my icky sickly PICC line and all the darling nurses that didn't know what to do with it

4:54 am

mrpresident

claratyne is no good with some of my meds, so phenergan is the only thing they allow... it is good for kids, ie is excellent for my brain (less)

4:54 am

herinfernallady

Aussieme

night night herin...

6:43 am

pinkhatlil

nighty night herin!!

6:43 am

nancethefan

well, i read an article on msn saying that during the first four weeks the products are not on sale or at a special price. at the end of the four weeks, cut out the ones that you use and take them to the grocery store with you. the manufacturerss will normally have a sale going on that time so you will be tempted to purchase the product a second time - never heard that before. it does make sense though. what do y'all think?

6:44 am

herinfernallady

Carlee i will read the rest of this thread tommorow

6:44 am

herinfernallady

Also my doctor wrote a big list for me to get help :)

6:46 am

LoriP

carlee, the adjustors/Ins Companies involved will do everything they can do, to snow you. Either an advocate or a lawyer is required. Also, you need to make VERY SURE when coverage for the various facets ends, and be prepared.

6:46 am

6:50 am

carleekat

Hello, Scarlet. You will make short work of it.

10:21 am

Scarlet

I really enjoy these icon themes... they open the doors to such a wide universe of things. I never knew that silhouette was named after a so-so French finance minister. Thank you, BR-r... I shall try. How are you, BR? Will you have good weather soon, wherever you are?

10:22 am

ardilla

good weather is always a possibility, no matter how improbable

10:23 am

westford

isn't it interesting that they were named for him..maybe he financed the artists?

10:23 am

Scarlet

:-), BR-r. Westford, I did a little research in my bio...

10:24 am

EvaNadine

"The word is an eponym named after Etienne de Silhouette, a finance minister of Louis XV who in 1759 imposed such harsh economic demands upon the French people that his name became synonymous with anything done or made cheaply."

10:24 am

o-o

ga 5 -- add form of to do

10:46 am

dcseain

good, point, much better than the fevered days, indeed :D

10:46 am

Scarlet

10:48 am

Aloyisius

Not a big confidence builder - hubby is going into the back yeard to start a bonfire and told me to look to make sure he's not on fire himself occaisionally.

11:07 am

11:08 am

Angela

Too bad you weren't around - this is the 3rd time he's tried to get one started this winter. Not a whole lot of flames needless to say.

11:09 am

toadandtoadette

ok this grid is really aggrivating me

11:09 am

Angela

maybe the 3rd time's the charm??

11:09 am

Vicuna

I would like to campaign for "oddism" to be a word. It is a lifestyle choice many Babblers seem to cultivate.

11:10 am

dcseain

bonfires need much more kindling and faggots than a small fire, interspersed among the grid of larger logs one builds, else it never gets hot enugh.

11:10 am

Angela

Add on "diddy" to that campaign Vicuna

11:10 am

toadandtoadette

dc... that sounded very technical

11:11 am

toadandtoadette

redies is a good one to add

11:11 am

Vicuna

Redie is what a cat does for lives 2-9?

11:11 am

toadandtoadette

yup... sure is

11:11 am

Angela

he's tried just about everything, but, unfortunately the town doesn't let you burn unless there is snow on the ground which tends to be wet...vicious cycle :)

11:12 am

toadandtoadette

how about PMSy

11:12 am

Vicuna

No ashes for Angela, I guess.

11:12 am

ROFL Vicuna :D

11:12 am

Angela

:) dc - smokey shmokey right?

11:13 am

dcseain

In DC, people burn leaves between parked cars in the fall. I was shocked to learn that fires are legal in the city, where you will, as long is it doesn't obstruct traffic.

11:15 am

toadandtoadette

isn't gymp an alternative way of spelling gimp

11:15 am

12:00 pm

Atalante

FM, I have all series on dvd ........

12:00 pm

raelite

my theory: Rousseaus and ben were both on the "black rock" when it sailed originally and the island has preserved their ages

12:00 pm

eieios

so who are the 5 oceanic six that we know of? Kate, Jack, Hurley, Sa**** and who else?

12:01 pm

Oh Angela I bet it is an absolute hoot watching him

12:01 pm

raelite

12:01 pm

eieios

12:01 pm

12:03 pm

Atalante

12:03 pm

raelite

I think Charlie is the one on the ship

12:03 pm

Busb

the actors name is on the credits and ben has a man on the boat. Ben let Micheal off

12:04 pm

Atalante

its kinda definite maybe probably Michael on the boat

12:04 pm

Angela

I stopped watching when they changed it to 10pm...too late for me.

12:04 pm

eieios

lol, ata

12:04 pm

Busb

therefore Micheal is the man on the boa

12:04 pm

Haz1558

Row row row your boat, gently down the stream.

12:04 pm

Atalante

the actors name has been in the credits for the whole series. so he has to appear at some point

12:04 pm

the name in the credits thing is a red herring

12:04 pm

eieios

You would think.

Busb

12:26 pm

I've hidden your passport Ata, sorry.

12:26 pm

LadyNatts

hi gang

12:27 pm

Haz1558

as8 - as, the Big Apple's intials reversed, anagram of a night out, or a specific day in the year

12:27 pm

Haz1558

Sorry, Ata. The breeder is flying over herself and combining it with a holiday!

12:27 pm

Hey Lady

12:27 pm

a + ***nonym + road ***our sign + vowel 1

12:27 pm

Haz1558

Hello LadyNatts.

12:29 pm

LadyNatts

I am quite simply not getting the as clues...

12:30 pm

Deeha

good clue nDan even I got that eventually

12:30 pm

Atalante

how absolutely small is a tiny small cavalier?

12:30 pm

LadyNatts

oooo... I did get dan's clue after all

12:30 pm

Haz1558

It would stand about 9 inches or so.

12:31 pm

pinkhatlil

hello babblers!

12:31 pm

Deeha

In fact I didnt follw instructions at first and got two for the price of one!!

12:31 pm

Atalante

*flails* cuteness!

12:31 pm

Haz1558

Hello pink.

12:31 pm

pinkhatlil

Hello haz.

12:31 pm

cybernan

me neither -- doesn't work out!

12:32 pm

Atalante

does spangle go with you to RDA?

12:32 pm

Haz1558

I know and I had forgotten how playful puppies are. She let her out after everybody else had gone and the pup immediately began attacking cardboard boxes and plastic bags. It was so funny.

12:32 pm

LadyNatts

hi pink

12:32 pm

cybernan

dan -- should it be **nonym or ***onym?

12:32 pm

Haz1558

No, she'd just get too many biscuits!

12:32 pm

pinkhatlil

Hi Lady

12:33 pm

Atalante

Hobbit and Ruby and Bounty (the other pub dog) were being outrageous this lunchtime. roaming round the pub mobbing people until they were given chips

12:33 pm

Haz1558

as8/55 - as, reverse the initials of the Big Apple, French of (two letters), British baby thanks.

12:33 pm

LadyNatts

you have pub dogs?

12:33 pm

nDanLia

a + ***onym not homony or antonym] + road ***our sign [go another way] + vowel 1

12:34 pm

Haz1558

You'd have to be hard-hearted to resist a gang of spaniels.

12:34 pm

Atalante

this one does. Bounty belongs to the owner and Ruby belongs to one of the staff, but they lurk around the pub, yep

12:34 pm

Atalante

even worse - 2 spaniels and a 9m old labrador

12:34 pm

cybernan

thanks, dan

12:34 pm

Haz1558

Gang sounds too harsh. It needs to be a more benevolent name, I think.

12:35 pm

LadyNatts

I imagine that's against the law here... anyplace that serves food wouldn't have live animals :(

12:35 pm

Atalante

gang sounds about right!

12:35 pm

dcseain

hardware stores often have cats about, though. :)

12:35 pm

Atalante

I think its officially illegal here too, but most pubs allow dogs in

12:35 pm

Haz1558

They're probably not allowed in the kitchen. Front of house for entertainment is enshrined in the canine Law of England.

12:36 pm

LadyNatts

I brought my dogs into a service station convenience store once and was told "they are not allowed in"

12:36 pm

Atalante

no, no dogs in the kitchen

12:36 pm

LadyNatts

but the liquor store staff (where I used to work) absolutely love having them come visit.

12:36 pm

dcseain

correct, only service animals allowed here. Even at that, no must fight to get them in sometimes.

12:36 pm

FMitch

Dogs are not allowed in eating areas in pubs unless its outside in the garden.

12:36 pm

Haz1558

Because they're MESSY cooks.

12:37 pm

pinkhatlil

Hello Dcseain, and Atalante!

12:37 pm

Haz1558

And they will NOT do the washing up properly.

12:37 pm

Atalante

LOL, and they so goes out of the window in the countryside. I don't think any pub round here bars dogs from the eating areas

12:37 pm

dcseain

good afternoon, pink and haz

12:37 pm

cybernan

de 6/27?

12:37 pm

Haz1558

Hello dc.

12:37 pm

FMitch

Hello pink

12:37 pm

Atalante

hi pink!

12:38 pm

LadyNatts

funny husband... phoning me to tell me he'd sent me e-mail.

12:38 pm

pinkhatlil

Hello FM

12:38 pm

Haz1558

de6/27 - short for Archbishop Tutu's first name, three letters meaning central

12:38 pm

dcseain

ty, haz

12:38 pm

Haz1558

And that word nearly drove me to distraction!

12:38 pm

LadyNatts

but haz.... they are the best at cleaning up spills and drops!!

12:38 pm

cybernan

12:38 pm

PMS

12:39 pm

dcseain

sy6 is within as8

12:39 pm

Haz1558

12:39 pm

LadyNatts

awesome clue, has... on that de

12:39 pm

pinkhatlil

12:39 pm

Haz1558

Glad it helped, Lady.

12:40 pm

dcseain

g'night pink, and congrats :)

12:40 pm

Hobbit's pretty good at dishwashing ...

12:40 pm

Haz1558

Good night pink!

12:40 pm

FMitch

Licking the plate clean does not count Ata!

12:40 pm

Atalante

oh ....... lol

12:40 pm

cybernan

duh -- got it , ty

12:41 pm

Haz1558

Brits would probably get Mr Lynam, for that name or even, gulp, Mr O'Connor.

12:41 pm

Haz1558

That's good, cybernan.

12:41 pm

Atalante

or the beautiful Scottish boy from Lost

12:41 pm

nDanLia

sa6 - take sa4, insert **kes 9bad oops0 before last letter

12:42 pm

nDanLia

**kes could be said by by Scooby Doo

12:43 pm

Haz1558

There's a Scottish boy on Lost. Hamish or Duncan or Angus?

12:43 pm

PMS

Got it.
ty nDan

12:43 pm

LadyNatts

aww... it's the proof of the in memoriam for my dad!

12:43 pm

Atalante

12:43 pm

Haz1558

Yes, I worked that out after I posted all those Scottish names!

12:44 pm

FMitch

You managed to get some inspiration then Lady?

12:44 pm

Atalante

LOL :D

12:44 pm

dcseain

makes sense that he called, then LadyNatts.

12:44 pm

cybernan

last ga 6?

12:44 pm

Atalante

he runs round half-naked of the time spouting scottish-isms

12:44 pm

dcseain

nan, happiness, archaic word

12:44 pm

Haz1558

ga6 - happiness of a lighthearted variety

12:45 pm

LadyNatts

oh yes, FM! you weren't here when I shared it?

12:45 pm

Haz1558

He can't be Scottish, those men know to keep clothed.

12:45 pm

nDanLia

ga6 frivolity

12:45 pm

FMitch

No I think I had gone to bed by then

12:45 pm

Atalante

but he is on a tropical island ...

12:45 pm

Ankhorite

Hi, all... mi8?

12:45 pm

cybernan

ty, hax

12:45 pm

cybernan

*haz

12:46 pm

Haz1558

Still. You never know when a mi5/18 might appear.

12:46 pm

Haz1558

The ones from Scotland have hob-nailed boots...

12:46 pm

Haz1558

Hello Ank - mi8 - when somebody did their sums wrong.

12:46 pm

nDanLia

mi8 what you did to get 0 on the math test

12:46 pm

dcseain

the British gov't gave hazard pay for service in a tropical environment to people posted at the embassy here intil they installed air conditioning in 1976. LOL

12:47 pm

Ankhorite

Wow... Thanks, Haz, DanLia

12:47 pm

dcseain

hiya, ankh

12:47 pm

Haz1558

So they get less pay but are cool about being cool?

12:47 pm

LadyNatts

wonderful clue, dan!

12:48 pm

nDanLia

DC wouldn't have grown w/o a/c

12:48 pm

dcseain

t'would seem so, haz

12:48 pm

nDanLia

ty

12:48 pm

Haz1558

Air conditioning is relevant here about once every five years.

12:48 pm

dcseain

very true nDanLia, the population boom here, and across the South, happend with the spread of A/C

12:48 pm

nDanLia

we try

12:49 pm

Ankhorite

Hi, Seain.

12:49 pm

dcseain

we used to get out of school on days the temperature was at or over 90F, and the humidity at or above 85%. That got us about 2 weeks of part-days or days off each school year.

12:49 pm

Ankhorite

Okay, I surrender on the DO6 27... halp.

12:50 pm

Haz1558

do6/27 - describes the time when you are pleasantly confused

12:50 pm

Ankhorite

No, I have that...

12:50 pm

nDanLia

older person suffers from it, esp nice little old ladies

12:50 pm

Ankhorite

Wait, maybe not

12:50 pm

dcseain

12:51 pm

dcseain

12:53 pm

LadyNatts

12:53 pm

Ankhorite

Okay. Are the de6,24 and the de5,14 related to each other?

12:54 pm

Haz1558

No, they're not

12:54 pm

nDanLia

de 6 24 is more de4

12:54 pm

dcseain

ed4/7 is a verb as well as a noun. hmph.

12:54 pm

nDanLia

de 5 is belief system

12:55 pm

LadyNatts

Here it is, FMitch... (and anyone else possibly curious about what I'd write for an in memoriam for my dad).

Itâ€™s been five years

away, and although
the years have flown,
you are still here with
us every day, as our
thoughts and dreams
h a v e s h o w n . A n d
while we may still cry
over times gone by,
y o u â€™ r e s t i l l t h e
greatest man weâ€™ve
ever known.

Heaven
is a better place now
that you are there!

1:18 pm

praise2him

not too much time to babble

1:18 pm

praise2him

hope that you are well

1:18 pm

LadyNatts

"stuff" is never good... what's wrong?

1:18 pm

praise2him

well the latest is that hubby had some health issues that totally shocked us

1:19 pm

praise2him

guess his kidney function is only at 30%

1:19 pm

LadyNatts

oh dear... what happened?

1:19 pm

praise2him

I guess they found something iffy in some of the routine bloodwork

1:19 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, Praise, I'm sorry...injury, or inherited?

1:20 pm

praise2him

and sent him to specialist

1:20 pm

MLFAN17

can i get a clue for the di 4/6 the second please?

1:20 pm

praise2him

I don't know ankh

1:20 pm

praise2him

no one in family has it that i know of

1:20 pm

nDanLia

what lightbulb does

1:21 pm

LadyNatts

so much can be done nowadays... keep faith, think positive, be thankful that they found it.

1:21 pm

Ankhorite

MLF, you could, except the light in here is fading, it di**

1:21 pm

MLFAN17

ty for the clue nd

1:21 pm

praise2him

they have changed some of his meds

1:21 pm

MLFAN17

and ank

1:21 pm

Ankhorite

I need help with both of the re5,12s...?

1:21 pm

praise2him

and want him to lose weight and watch his bp and blood sugar

1:21 pm

MLFAN17

is that also when a person is R I P?

1:22 pm

praise2him

he goes in June for kidney ultrasound

1:22 pm

Ankhorite

Do they think the kidney issue is related to diabetes?

1:22 pm

LadyNatts

so you've been at hospital recently? is that why you were away?

1:22 pm

nDanLia

re 4 5 pl for one; + vowel for other

1:22 pm

praise2him

that is one of the factors they told him

1:23 pm

praise2him

I guess it is all tied in together--the weight, the meds that were causing problems, etc.

1:23 pm

praise2him

wellI have lurked some

1:23 pm

praise2him

but have had some projects at work that I have been dealing with

1:23 pm

LadyNatts

unrelated, but my brother was in hospital for a month. his gall baldder, kidneys and pancreas were operated on. He weighed 104 pounds.

1:23 pm

praise2him

wow--is he okay lady?

1:24 pm

Ankhorite

DanLia, the plural worked for me, but adding a vowel does not; do I need to make another change?

1:24 pm

MLFAN17

ak is that the R.I.P word you were clueing for me?

1:24 pm

Ankhorite

No, MLF, I was cluing the fading light word

1:24 pm

LadyNatts

he's back at home now (living with my 78-y-o mother)... seems to be gaining strength and getting better.

1:24 pm

praise2him

that is good

1:24 pm

Ankhorite

Do you need something else? di**, light fades

1:24 pm

nDanLia

sorry, bit off - end like sp day

1:24 pm

MLFAN17

LadyNatts

1:27 pm

Ankhorite

1:27 pm

1:27 pm

Ankhorite

1:37 pm

ylleria

what on earth does that as8 mean?

1:37 pm

jessmom

I think dictionary.com should just have it listed as word created exclusively for babble!

1:37 pm

LadyNatts

1:37 pm

ylleria

1:38 pm

1:59 pm

jeanne314

thanks...noodling now...

1:59 pm

Uniquity

Oh Praise, I have an idea of your crafting difficulties then. My grandmother HAS severe arthritis (several kinds, never remember which) and has had her joints all curled up for 40 years or more.

2:01 pm

praise2him

well mine aren't that bad thankfully, but I definitely have some deformaties

2:02 pm

Uniquity

She is an amazing woman...if you saw her, you would NEVER assume she could even walk, necessarily, let alone do the many things she does. Definitely an inspiration to overcome.

2:02 pm

praise2him

that is great uni

2:02 pm

praise2him

that is what I try to do

2:02 pm

Uniquity

Is it a pain issue for you, Praise, or have you just not found a way to work yet?

2:02 pm

praise2him

just keep on keeping on

2:03 pm

Uniquity

I know Grammy does everything differently, but she has been at it for years to make sure she can still do things. I

2:03 pm

ChrissieDee

Jeanne - if you're still watching can I give you a tip. The right hand icon above the chat box lets you open the entire chat log. Really useful to pick up clues already given.

2:03 pm

praise2him

well sometimes I have a lot of pain when I try to do fine motor things I have problems

2:03 pm

praise2him

have beginnings of carpal tunnel too

2:04 pm

Uniquity

I'm sorry to hear that Praise, I imagine that must be the true difficulty

2:04 pm

praise2him

well I do the best with what I can do

2:04 pm

praise2him

and learn to deal with the rest

2:04 pm

praise2him

or figure out another way to do things

2:05 pm

Uniquity

I'm glad you still try to do the thigns you love, Praise

2:05 pm

Uniquity

Perseverence gets you somewhere in the end!

2:05 pm

praise2him

2:05 pm

praise2him

Uniquity

Jeanne, I'm glad that helped you! Not my best work, but I tried, heh.

2:07 pm

Uniquity

Praise, that'll eliminate the hand pain too, one can hope. I know I am making light here, but it will be an opportunity!

2:07 pm

jeanne314

With a few more brain cells I could conquer the world...oh, yeah. I guess I'm just Pinky...you can be the Brain!!!! J.

praise2him

2:09 pm

Uniquity

I loved pinky and the brain...

2:09 pm

Uniquity

I really like cross-stitch, but I always take it for granted. Fly through the first half, then forget about it 3/4s through. The fresh canvas always gets me motivated

...and the Angry Beavers. Oddly (and I stress "oddly") I happen to collect beaver figurines...not the usual thing to find in most places, but I've found them as far away as Japan.

2:12 pm

Uniquity

At 2:06, the as8 was typed into chat accidentally...add the a at the beginning and you got it :)

2:13 pm

Uniquity

I'm trying to think if I have ever seen a beaver figurine...perhaps at the dollar store, but that would be it.

2:13 pm

jeanne314

2:06. The time o' my crime. ;-}

2:13 pm

Uniquity

Oh, and those little crystal animals, I've seen one of those in a beaver shape

2:14 pm

jeanne314

Never have seen one at the dollar stores! But there's a lovely bone china with gold at the local high class jeweler's for about 800 bucks. Anyone wanna chip in for me?

2:16 pm

jeanne314

One of my favorite is from a collection that includes animals of all types, I think out of England. The beavers are trapped by a wolf, but they are holding a hand grenade. It's called "Stand-off". I also have a Lithuanian egg made for me by a friend which features, of course, a classic beaver. Enough of this now, I promise.

2:16 pm

Uniquity

Whew...That is a pricy beaver!

2:17 pm

jeanne314

Just ask Eliot about that...oh, I'm really sorry for that one!!!

2:17 pm

Uniquity

It sounds like an interesting collection Jeanne! You should post a photo sometime, I am intrigued

2:18 pm

Uniquity

Praise, need any more help?

2:18 pm

jeanne314

I love reading about what all of you do, professional and private. I just sell books, teach a little English as a 2nd lang., and do misc. work for court reporters. oh, and play Babble on the side of course, mainly lurking.

Hi Tyger

5:31 pm

tygerbryght

now: sa6/27, anyone?

5:32 pm

lynxxx

sa6 sa + vowel + most of y4.7

5:33 pm

tygerbryght

thx so much, lynx. I was sure it was SOME spelling of that word :)

5:34 pm

Mom

thanks for the y 4/7 Lynxxx

5:35 pm

pablo blanco

finally got the as8! thanks guys! was really a strange one!

5:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

asap, that should be a word by now. i mean it is now in oral use, you hear it all the time . . .

5:36 pm

tygerbryght

gwen, the usual spelling is with double sometimes vowel in the middle

5:37 pm

tygerbryght

yw, pablo. I agree; weird word

5:37 pm

tygerbryght

and it's NOT in dictionary.com

5:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

no, i mean a.s.a.p., as soon as possible. 8-)

5:38 pm

tygerbryght

sa6/27, you're referring to?

5:38 pm

tygerbryght

my previous comment was about as8 :)

5:38 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

dictionary.com is just a website, programmed by flawed humans. i say it's used all the time, and that's what makes it a word! (like ain't and the F word)

5:39 pm

tygerbryght

what I think of as the *correct* spelling of sa6/27 IS in that site

5:39 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

aaah, and your comment led me to the word, TY tyger!

5:39 pm

tygerbryght

oh, I agree, gwen, that dic.com does NOT have words it should have, but I don't consider sa6/27 to be the correct spelling of the word :P

5:40 pm

tygerbryght

yw :D

5:40 pm

tygerbryght

oh, you mean with the double sometimes vowel? :D

5:41 pm

tygerbryght

lynx gave me a good clue, given I had a pretty good idea of what the word was; I just couldn't monkey the Enable spelling :P

5:49 pm

tygerbryght

do you understand now what our clues mean? that the 2 letters are the beginning of a word, and the 1st number is how many letters, and the 2nd is the value of the word in points?

5:50 pm

tygerbryght

yw, peri

5:50 pm

apple<3

5:52 pm

tygerbryght

but just please try hard not to do it? :)

5:53 pm

tygerbryght

a lot of people chat and work on the grid at the same time. some of them get REALLY grumpy if someone puts a grid word in here

5:53 pm

tygerbryght

so if you get yelled at, you now know why :)

5:54 pm

apple<3

oh i didnt know that

5:54 pm

apple<3

why do they get nad?

5:54 pm

tygerbryght

that's why I'm telling you. I don't want you to get hurt feelings if/when it happens

5:54 pm

apple<3

mad*

5:54 pm

o-o

welcome, apple. Mistakes happen. Enjoy.

5:54 pm

tygerbryght

because they want to solve the grid as much on their own as possible

5:54 pm

Mom

to some, Apple, this is more than just a fun game

5:55 pm

apple<3

oh

5:55 pm

tygerbryght

that's why we are so careful with our clues

5:55 pm

tygerbryght

mom's right. I'm trying to explain to you, so that if you get yelled at, you won't freak. Okay? :)

5:55 pm

apple<3

6:10 pm

carra

6:10 pm

joansiebone

is it realistic to get 80 % of the words daily?

6:10 pm

tygerbryght

oops, I gave a wrong clue; sorry

6:10 pm

apple<3

what?

6:10 pm

Mom

if you are very precise, LIlmonkey, you want it right down to the very last ***ail

6:11 pm

tygerbryght

yes, joan, but maybe not for a newbie

6:11 pm

o-o

what is realistic is of your choice. you decide

6:11 pm

Mom

I think that is great Joansie, I am lucky to get 50%

6:11 pm

tygerbryght

sy6: not an antonym, but a sy*onym + ***roit, Michigan

Mom

I can get fireworks when Lil*monkey walks me through the grid

6:13 pm

apple<3

what d you mean

6:13 pm

tygerbryght

but that was part of a clue

6:13 pm

apple<3

oh

6:14 pm

o-o

my objection is to get one more word until there are no more or I go on to something else

6:14 pm

lil*monkey

awwww Mom... we help each other, right?

6:14 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

80% would be an extremely good first day. 50% would be pretty good for a newbie, I should think.

It sure does, Dan, it sure does. Other problems seem quite trivial. Such as my aging, arthritic bunny that may need to be euthanized soon. Right now she is happy and eating.

8:24 pm

Lindrickway

aaawww we feel for you Mama

8:24 pm

jbp

i'm going thru that also, b/c of the hysterectomy, MaMaWa; they're playing with my hormones, and not in a good way

8:25 pm

Join the menopause club, MaMa! We contribute to global warming, but Al Gore has overlooked us. I had my ovaries removed 4 yrs ago and went in to instant menopause.

8:25 pm

Jacula

*Sigh* Don't talks to me about all those symptoms. *Wipes brow... AGAIN*

8:25 pm

nDanLia

i think children still have a closer connection to when they were angels to draw on, they can show such fortitude in cases like that

8:25 pm

Scrabbler

Bunny Callie just hopped into this room and she is behind me.

8:26 pm

Jacula

*Waves to Callie.*

8:26 pm

MaMaWA

I am thinking that maybethe quick way could be better, this started for me about 8 years ago

8:26 pm

jbp

I just had mine done 10 days ago; it was a total, after having one ovary removed last year

8:26 pm

MaMaWA

but again ...I know things coulsd be worse

8:26 pm

Scrabbler

Jacula, TY for your e-mail reply and kind words. Callie is improved since this AM, but still getting older and arthritic.

8:26 pm

jbp

and I have to say, already, I feel MUCH better!!!! even while dealing with "power surges"

8:26 pm

MaMaWA

Word of warning... learned from my Other Half's Mum - HRT only delays the symptoms. As soon as you come off it - wham! They're back.

8:27 pm

nDanLia

8:27 pm

9:03 pm

lbdawger

night, grannyg

9:04 pm

Jacula

Well done grannyg. Hi, monkey. I said 'Hmmm' not 'Mmmm'! LOL

9:04 pm

Jacula

Anyway, a chimp is an ape not a monkey.

9:04 pm

lil*monkey

you said "chimp in garlic"

9:04 pm

Iinoyb

oh, no, not that homonym thing again

9:05 pm

Iinoyb

garlic and bacon shrimp

9:05 pm

pam

night--sandperson just slapped me in the face

9:05 pm

lil*monkey

help with the last two im words please?

9:05 pm

Jacula

Monkey - I was merely imagining a happy chimp frolicking amongst the garlic flowers. ;-)

9:05 pm

Scrabbler

Good night, Pam! Sleep well.

9:05 pm

DR1965

gnight Pam!

9:06 pm

lbdawger

sweet dreams, Pam

9:06 pm

lil*monkey

oh, well... that's better than chimp sizzling in the wok with several cloves of garlic

9:06 pm

Jacula

Fell asleep on the keyboard did you, Pam, and got that squared pattern on your forehead? *grins*

9:06 pm

Iinoyb

nite pam

9:06 pm

lbdawger

9:06 pm

9:06 pm

lil*monkey

9:07 pm

doxy1lover

got the as8, thanks

9:07 pm

Jacula

LOL, lbd.

9:07 pm

lbdawger

whew, glad to hear that doxy. it means the omission of conjunctions...or something like that

9:07 pm

lbdawger

brb, need more tea

9:08 pm

Jacula

im5/14 = plutal of the firs tim4/6. im4/6 (last im word) = little devil or fairy + personal pronoun.

9:08 pm

doxy1lover

had to look it up though.

9:08 pm

Jacula

plural, not plutal (which sounds like it's to do with Pluto).

9:09 pm

lil*monkey

TY Jac! * hands Jac a suspicious-looking garlic shesh-ke-bob *

9:09 pm

Jacula

Thanks monkey. I need to go easy on the garlic, given my name and all that. LOL

9:09 pm

Scrabbler

I was wondering..plutal..plu-perfect?

9:10 pm

lil*monkey

LOL Dracula/Jacula :)

9:10 pm

Jacula

AAGH! That took me back to schooldays, Scrabbs.

9:11 pm

Jacula

Chalky motes drifting in the over-warm, sunlit classroom and all that... LOL

9:11 pm

Scrabbler

Argh, this last page (10 PM here) was for a 12 yr old that has had a rash all day, and now they want to chat about it.

9:12 pm

Jacula

Monkey - In all seriousness, I have v. low BP and garlic lowers BP, so if I have it too often or too much, it does weird things to the left side of my body.

9:12 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, Jacula--learning verb conjugations is a nightmare. For Xmas I bought myself a workbook of Italian verbs.

9:12 pm

Scrabbler

How odd, Jacula, with that garlic effect!

9:12 pm

lil*monkey

oh! I'm glad you mentioned that Jac... I have High BP, so I should eat more !

9:12 pm

jillibus

big fat prawns, actually

9:13 pm

Jacula

Italian verbs? You don't like yourself then, Scrabbs? LOL (Remembers nightmare of Latin at school.)

9:13 pm

featherbee

scrabs, i have a medical question: why do i seem to get heart palpitations when scrabulous suddenly shows a blank board, or my list of games is gone and it says click here to start a new game? should i see a cardiologist?

9:13 pm

Iinoyb

its good for your complexion

9:14 pm

lil*monkey

garlic, lino? or prawns?

9:14 pm

Jacula

Ferather - that happened to me when I started a game with jilli. It gave me no tiles!

9:14 pm

hurshy

no, you should hit refresh

9:14 pm

Jacula

jilli - why are you calling us big, fat prawns? LOL

9:14 pm

featherbee

happened several times. i do refresh, but the first time it did it, i about freaked!

9:15 pm

Jacula

Fearather? I meant Feather. Trying to type and talk. Not a good combo at my age. LOL

9:15 pm

hurshy

i have heart palpitations sometimes just randomly

9:15 pm

Iinoyb

prawns attach nights

9:15 pm

Scrabbler

Haha, Fatherbee--intense anxiety and fear! Fight or flight reaction!

9:15 pm

lbdawger

i talk while i type. could be why i type funny

9:15 pm

Jacula

lino - water's better for your complexion.

9:15 pm

featherbee

hehe scrabs! ok, just poked my nose in for a sec, back to the games....

9:15 pm

lil*monkey

i get "positional" palpitations, hurshy.... i can trigger them if I lie partly relcined on my right side

9:16 pm

jillibus

supper for me is butterfly garlic prawns, rice, and a salad of mixed baby greens, raisins, chopped walnuts and Jamaica Mistake dressing (love that name) and it's ready now -- ttfn

9:16 pm

Jacula

Feather - flood of adrenalin.

9:16 pm

Scrabbler

And right now I am trying to make a word in the game vs Fran--nowhere to make a decent play.

9:16 pm

featherbee

(i was joking, don't *really* get palpitations)

9:16 pm

lil*monkey

raisins makes me think of that poo cake (who said they made that cake?)

9:16 pm

Jacula

*Thinks to self... I'll bet that Feather woman's beating me at Scrabulous while I'm all defenceless and not there.*

9:16 pm

jillibus

oh, and green onion

9:17 pm

Jacula

Monkey - it was Harp.

9:29 pm

lil*monkey

i've eaten spotted dick, but i'm really not sure what "suet" is

9:29 pm

Jacula

Anyone from UK remember the school pudding chocolate concrete? It was so hard that if you didn't soften it first with the school's lumpy custard, it shot out of the bowl when you tried to stick your spoon in it.

9:29 pm

Jandy

Sounds wise, ms gilly....

9:29 pm

lil*monkey

sounds like what you put in the bird feeder

9:29 pm

Shirlockc

can anyone clue me for the as8? pls?

9:30 pm

Jandy

Oh, I'm having a flashback now Jac..... school lunches.... they should have been reported for cruelty!

9:30 pm

Jacula

suet is beef or mutton fat from around the loins and kidneys.

9:30 pm

lil*monkey

9:32 pm

lbdawger

hi andree!

9:32 pm

Shirlockc

9:36 pm

lil*monkey

9:36 pm

Jandy

Oh, thanks lil monkey... would NEVER have got that one!

9:36 pm

danf63

yw ruru

10:16 pm

apple<3

what?

10:16 pm

Jacula

sy6/27 sounds like one of the 7 deadlies with what sounds like you owing someone money at the end.

10:17 pm

apple<3

jacula, how much do you have left??

10:17 pm

danf63

good clue Jac! I couldn't figure one out for that...

10:18 pm

rururocks

Can anyone clue me on the as 8?

10:19 pm

Jacula

as8 is leaving conjunctions out, it's a grammatical term mostly to do with poetry. However, try a 'one of the 7 deadlies' sounding word + the owing moneyy sounding word + first vowel.

10:20 pm

danf63

thanks Jac

Jacula

Haven't got to the car events as often as I would have liked in past 20 years or so. I used to love mini rallies, banger racing and figure of 8's. Frozen to death and soaked most of time watching, after painting cars up. Was fun though.
