jillibus

hello nan

12:10 am

kristinc

hello moon w/ the cutie puppy

12:10 am

It would be cool if one letter could say that much, but no. Just premature enetering, that was.

VolleymomDee

ursh

Hello all

VolleymomDee

hugs jili

12:12 am

moonwoof

My laptop took a digger 2 weeks ago and I'm still trying to get stuff installed on this thing, and I'm running into the same problem Sprite was, where IE was freaking out.

12:13 am

jillibus

hugs dee back :)

12:13 am

stidmama

oh moon -- I know what that's like. {{hugs}} hang in there, eventually things get sorted out

12:13 am

jillibus

woof, try firefox!

12:13 am

kristinc

took a digger...I like it (the description that is, not the action)

12:13 am

cybernan

Hi Jill

12:13 am

moonwoof

I usually use that, Jilli... but Expert doesnt work with firefox.

12:14 am

stidmama

hmph. "tarmite" is them critters that eats wood down south. *grumble*

12:14 am

jillibus

Expert works with my Firefos perfectly!

12:14 am

jwr

I think marmite does that too

12:14 am

moonwoof

I suppose, now that you've mentioned it I could change it in firefox and then get into expert...

12:14 am

moonwoof

Hadnt thought of that till you said it tho =)

12:14 am

stidmama

that's true, moon

12:14 am

MLFAN17

well i only found 40 words so far but i have to go to bed bye

12:14 am

MLFAN17

POOF

12:15 am

jillibus

night mlf!

12:15 am

kristinc

bye MLF

12:15 am

NonnieLight

bye bye ml, hope to see you later

12:15 am

stidmama

Jill -- expert does NOT work with firefox -- it works with windows, the operating system. Expert is a specialized internet explorer browser.

12:15 am

cybernan

night, mlf

12:15 am

stidmama

sweet dreams mlf

12:15 am

jwr

"took a digger" sounds Aussie. Does it mean Crash? If so, my sympathy -- I hate making any changes, even upgrades sometimes

12:15 am

jesdraggon

g'night mlk

12:15 am

jesdraggon

mlf

12:15 am

jillibus

of course, you're right, stid.

12:16 am

westford

ti 8

12:16 am

moonwoof

Took a digger means it crashed, but in the physical sense, like "fall down, went boom" which is almost literal. It sounded like a rifle shot inside the stock trailer.

12:16 am

stidmama

not often I can actually be right about something, Jill! *offers sugar cookie*

12:17 am

stidmama

I need to bake some more tomorrow while cleaning the house. should I do cookies again or a cake?

12:17 am

jesdraggon

cake is less distracting from other chores

12:17 am

kristinc

I figured as much moon (though the story is sad...I totally knew what you meant with the wording and thought it was clever). I too am sorry about the computer challenges :(

12:17 am

kristinc

cookies!

12:18 am

stidmama

true. and a lot fewer dishes to wash after... but cookies are easier to portion out. *wrinkling brows in concentration* I could do both I suppose...

12:18 am

12:20 am

stidmama

good for you lickety -- oh, speaking of videos, they are n't playing for me any more. Windows has made a couple upgrades this week. Could that have broken it?

12:21 am

hydra

well done, euphie! Hi everyonel Babble site went down just as I'd started playing. Anyone else have that problem?

5:35 am

Yvo

I had it down too

5:42 am

hydra

It's so frustrating isn't it, Yvo. You type words out and get those red boxes that say it can't be added.

5:43 am

pinkhatlil

morning everyone **yawn**

5:44 am

hydra

Morning pink!! Horrid weather. Sleeting here.

5:45 am

pinkhatlil

no its dry at the mo, but clouds tell me its gonna pee down

5:46 am

hydra

It will, pink, it will!

5:46 am

Yvo

im in chicago suburb and we had anywhere 6 to 10 inches of snow friday

5:47 am

pinkhatlil

thats alot of snow how do you cope

5:47 am

Yvo

easter egg hunt in the snow sounds like fun for the kids

5:48 am

Marmar

Hi everyone, just popping in for a minute. It's been snowing on and off here for three days....nothing sticking but so pretty!

5:48 am

hydra

Wow. That really is snow. When I was a kid in Liverpool, we used to have white Christmases, but I don't remember a really snowy winter here for about 12 years.

5:48 am

Yvo

coping means hibernating

5:48 am

Yvo

tay in

5:48 am

Marmar

part

5:48 am

Yvo

hoping for spring

5:48 am

Marmar

ooops....sorry

5:50 am

pinkhatlil

lol Yvo

5:50 am

Yvo

oh Marmar those beautyful braid on your daughter bet the boys pull them in school

5:51 am

Yvo

i know they did when i was that young i had them too

5:51 am

Marmar

thanks. She never complained about that but I bet it happened all the time. It's all cut off now...sigh...

5:51 am

Yvo

noooooo

5:52 am

Yvo

hope she donated them for a good cause

5:52 am

Marmar

she grows it very long, then we cut it off and send to Lock of Love, they make wigs for kids with cancer who lose their hair throu chemo.

5:52 am

hydra

I had them as well. In Art, kids sitting behind me used to dip the ends in the paint. Once some nasty boy tied my plaits to the seat in the bus.

5:53 am

Marmar

...or Locks for Love, something like that. She loves the idea of helping sick children.

5:53 am

Yvo

looking back now those were wonderful times

5:54 am

Yvo

very good cause Marmar

5:54 am

Marmar

That used to happen to my mom too, never happened to me I think cause I was taller than most of the boys in the class!

5:55 am

Marmar

And I have 5 big brothers so no one EVER bothered me. At lease those little tricks were relatively harmless, nowadays, worse things can happen in school!

5:55 am

hydra

I loved the way German and Russian friends would fasten their braids over their heads. My hair was too slippery. The hairpins just pinged out.

5:56 am

Marmar

Oh, my motherinlaw used to have her hair like that, we have a few really cute photos like that. My hair was really thick and heavy, hard to make stay up, Eva's is like that too.

5:56 am

Yvo

shudder at the thought of what happens to those children all over the world

5:58 am

hydra

Yvo, I'm with you there. I'd happily have donated my hair, but back in the Sixties they didn't want it.

5:59 am

Marmar

I know, my mom always said the people that hurt little children will pay dearly for it someday, if not in this world then the next. Mishandled and bullied children are always at the very top of our prayer lists.

6:00 am

Marmar

Oh, if you still have your old pigtails, and they are 10 inches long or longer, they will accept them at that organization. I have mine but they aren't long enough.

6:01 am

Yvo

to bad for me now, i barely have any ,to much medication ,its thinning

6:03 am

Yvo

Marmar question for you ,do you know if giessenstill has commesary open

6:03 am

hydra

I gave mine to a school friend who was training as a hairdresser. He made a small piece into a switch. I still have that. It's such a bright red. My hair has faded to gingery grey now!

6:04 am

Marmar

oh my gosh, we were just talking about that the other night Yvo, no, it closed about a year ago, sadly. I couldn't go but we had a friend who worked there and got me my few things I can't get anywhere else here.

6:05 am

Yvo

I think Hanau is open

6:06 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. My mother, who grew up in Hamburg, had beautiful long braids which she hated, and wanted cut off. Her mother refused and so my mother, one day while alone at home (she as about 16) cut off just one braid. No choice then but to take her to a salon to have the rest done.

6:06 am

Yvo

i was going to stop in Lollar for my final visit to my moms grave ,and visit sister was going to suprise her with some shrimp

6:07 am

Marmar

That is where our friend is working now, at the grade school there. We don't see him that much though so our "source" is basically gone. All I REALLY miss from there is brown sugar, baking soda, vanilla, some mexican stuff...

6:08 am

Marmar

We muttle through though. Yvo, are you on our side of the pond right now or are you planning a visit?

6:08 am

Yvo

im coming in May

6:09 am

Yvo

going to Kandern for grandaughters graduation from Black Forrest Christian Acadamy

6:09 am

Marmar

Eva, my mom had her braids until she was 15 or so. She grew up in Boston then because of the death of her parents had to move to Hollywood to live with her uncle. Her first girlfriend gently told her that the braids "had to go". Talk about a culture shock!

6:10 am

Yvo

Eva did she eventually like her short hair

6:10 am

Marmar

Oh how nice Yvo! And May should be beautiful. March will be beautiful if it ever stops snowing!

6:11 am

Marmar

Oh we gotta go to lunch, be back later! Bye!!!

6:11 am

Eva

Marmar the story about my mother's braids always represented for me a sad mystery about this spunky, rebellious woman who seemed to have existed before the war, before she became a refugee. By the time I knew her that kind of rebelliousness was hardly present.

6:13 am

Yvo

byeeeee Marmar enjoy Lunch

6:13 am

Eva

One could write so many deep stories about women and their hair. I think pretty much no matter what the culture, we have very strong feelings about our hair.

6:15 am

Yvo

that is so true ,but as one ages it becomes wash and wear,just easy to handle

6:16 am

carleekat

HOLY COW...no re's...

6:17 am

Eva

Yvo, for most of my life I had Janis Joplin hair and was, of course, always trying to get it to behave. Now, with hormonal changes, it is suddenly quite straight and thin. Just one of those impermanent things about life.

6:17 am

Eva

The one "i" is making me nuts! Any clues?

6:17 am

Eva

I now carlee-isn't it wonderful?

6:17 am

Eva

6:18 am

pabtrek

I'll take some Scrabbler

8:44 am

Scrabbler

Here you go, pabtrek----> hot, hot.

8:44 am

frantique

The only draw backs to the nespresso is .. you can only get the coffee pods from nespresso

8:44 am

Scrabbler

What is Nespresso?

8:44 am

frantique

also.. they are metal and not recyclable

8:44 am

frantique

its a coffee maker

8:45 am

frantique

really its for espresso but you can set it to make a full cup like plain coffee

8:45 am

ardilla

i'm back from a druggie nap

8:45 am

Scrabbler

I will look it up later. Actually I am considering switching rom being a coffee drinker to just a tea drinker. The UK coalition is influencing me here.

8:45 am

frantique

it makes that creama on top! when I make a cup i often forget if i put milk in it or not

8:45 am

o-o

about akin to the only drawback of cold is a lack of warmth

8:46 am

Scrabbler

Lortab knocked you out, huh, Squirrel?

8:46 am

Scrabbler

So true, BR.

8:46 am

frantique

Stores that sell nespresso often have a demo machine there.. If you are coffee lovers.. you have to TRY IT ! its amazing!

ok thanks

9:28 am

redturtlehead

I have owned 3 Mazda Protoges, and never needed anything done. The latest is a stick, so far I just change the oil...I find them to be solid, I got rid of one, because It had a tons of miles on it, one because it got totalled, and I am enjoyig the third...

9:29 am

ardilla

clue for first ra5 pls?

9:29 am

periwinkle

but how long did you own each of them red

9:30 am

kje

ra = male sheep + 2 vowels

9:30 am

redturtlehead

probably 6 yrs on the one with high miles, it was preowned, 2 years on the totalled one, and the one I have now I have had for 4 years now, almost 5.

9:31 am

periwinkle

ok, something to think about

9:31 am

ardilla

hi kje & thanks thought i put that in

9:31 am

redturtlehead

I try not to keep a car with high miles because of the travel part of my job...

9:31 am

periwinkle

of course the longer one owns a car the more things need to be replaced or fixed

9:32 am

kje

peri - I have had my Ford Escort for 11 years - have maybe had 5-6 oil changes, replaced some tires and brake pads, and never had a breakdown yet - I love cars that can take abuse and keep on going cuz I'm lousy about keeping up maintenance

9:32 am

cheeky

i just passed 190,000 on mine. bmw 318 i. very happy with it.

9:32 am

periwinkle

if I was buying a preowned car, how many years old should the car be

9:32 am

redturtlehead

yes this is true, and i will admit, my Mazda is very boring.

9:32 am

periwinkle

interesting kje

9:32 am

frantique

i wish they'd make a sealed car, like theymake batteirs that an last the life of the car with no maintence

9:32 am

periwinkle

only have 136,000+ miles on my 1991 Corolla

9:33 am

periwinkle

wouldn

9:33 am

frantique

oh wait.. i did see a commeical on tv for some car is it a lexus

9:33 am

periwinkle

wouldn't that be nice frantique

9:33 am

kje

just don't tell my dad about the oil changes - it drives him insane : )

9:33 am

periwinkle

how old is your car cheeky

9:33 am

redturtlehead

I want a chrysler Sebring, but they are not very practical.

9:33 am

frantique

i think lexus has one but it must be mega $'s

9:33 am

frantique

LOL kje

9:34 am

9:35 am

periwinkle

that is good cheeky

9:35 am

cheeky

i had to replace a water pump once. but only once.

9:36 am

kje

People at work make fun of my car, but even if I have to replace a few things at some point - it is cheaper than new car payments and high insurance - I would rather use my money for traveling

9:36 am

periwinkle

this is the first time for the water pump and freeze plug

9:36 am

cheeky

my biggest expense by far has been the air compressor. those are ridiculously expensive.

9:36 am

kje

maybe those 2 things will be it for awhile peri - those corollas can usually go 200+

9:36 am

periwinkle

labor is sky high on car repairs

9:37 am

periwinkle

I will hang on to it as long as I can, so that I can build up my retirement fund

9:38 am

4:24 pm

tygerbryght

I don't think I've ever seen a calico mom have a calico baby

4:24 pm

sadie52

this friend of mine has one hes had for a couple years and two he found on porch i had one also beautiful cats they are

4:24 pm

tygerbryght

I've seen daughters of calicoes have calico babies, tho

4:24 pm

kje

it's just a picture I found on line when I googled "kung fu theater" today's theme apparently... or was that yesterday's

4:24 pm

sadie52

no nor does a tortie mom have a tortie baby

4:24 pm

tygerbryght

oh. oh, well

4:24 pm

scubadiver

clue for second gi4/6?

4:24 pm

sadie52

tortie is a calico with a black background instead of a white one

4:25 pm

tygerbryght

gi4/6: change last cons on previous gi4

4:25 pm

kje

anagram of the smile gr

4:25 pm

tygerbryght

I just call them all calicoes, sadie :)

4:25 pm

westford

oh no I have one left and it's an s but all my s's are checked off on lickety's list

4:25 pm

sadie52

i didnt kno what to call her til vet told me they are called tortious shell (spelling)

4:25 pm

scubadiver

Ok. That's a strange word! ty

4:26 pm

westford

we have a calico her name is Ruby

4:26 pm

tygerbryght

I had one white/grey tiger who had a lot of calicoes of different sorts over her lifetime (this was when I was a kid)

4:26 pm

kje

well, that will keep you busy west!

4:26 pm

westford

I know lol

4:26 pm

tygerbryght

wow, sadie, weird name (the cat color)

4:26 pm

Lindrickway

i did that yesterday west!!

4:27 pm

sadie52

hmmm can you go through your s's delete them and repaste list to lickety????

4:27 pm

sadie52

yea it is isnt it tyger i thought so too

4:27 pm

kje

good idea sadie!

4:27 pm

scubadiver

tr 5/12???

4:27 pm

tygerbryght

the cat my parents had when I was born was (what I call) a black calico - she was a mighty hunter

4:27 pm

sadie52

they are good hunters

4:27 pm

sadie52

mine was also

4:28 pm

tygerbryght

tr5/12: archaic past tense of preceding tr4/5

4:28 pm

kje

past tense of the 4/5 before it - just one consanant

4:28 pm

sadie52

and she can get into more trouble then a whole bunch of cats

4:28 pm

tygerbryght

scuba, it's a different consonant - start in the middle of the grid

4:29 pm

westford

it's an st 5/12 now I can search

4:29 pm

tygerbryght

you won't have any choice but the right ending! :D

4:30 pm

scubadiver

OK--an unusual spelling, that tr!!!

4:30 pm

kje

bet I can guess which st 5/12 - the weird one!

4:30 pm

tygerbryght

yes, scuba, it is

4:30 pm

sadie52

uh huh

4:30 pm

sadie52

is what i was thinkin too

4:30 pm

westford

word I probably never heard of?

4:30 pm

tygerbryght

the one lin had trouble with :)

4:31 pm

sadie52

yea weird spelling

4:31 pm

tygerbryght

it was her last, wasn't it, sadie?

4:31 pm

kje

very likely west

4:31 pm

tygerbryght

I've seen it in grids before

4:31 pm

sadie52

i think so

4:31 pm

tygerbryght

want a clue, west? :)

4:31 pm

westford

sure tyg

4:32 pm

westford

is the third letter a hook?

4:32 pm

tygerbryght

add a different cons to preceding st4/4

4:33 pm

tygerbryght

hook? I've never figured out which letter that is, but the letter before snake doesn't look like a hook to me

4:33 pm

westford

sort of does if you use lower case

4:33 pm

tygerbryght

and the 3rd letter is a vowel

4:33 pm

tygerbryght

hook is the 4th letter

4:33 pm

kje

the 3rd letter is a vowel!

4:34 pm

tygerbryght

snap, kje :)

4:34 pm

sadie52

st and a three letter word for tear interchange the first two letters

4:34 pm

kje

or just add a consanant to the preceding 4/4

4:34 pm

westford

and there you have it!!!

4:35 pm

westford

fireworks and thank you

4:35 pm

kje

yea!!!! WTG west

4:35 pm

westford

that is a strange word

4:35 pm

sadie52

yep it is

4:35 pm

kje

I thought so

4:35 pm

tygerbryght

it means line of descendants from a common ancestor

4:35 pm

tygerbryght

yw, west, for my part anyway :D

4:36 pm

Lindrickway

WTG west

4:36 pm

westford

4:37 pm

tygerbryght

4:37 pm

tygerbryght

4:37 pm

sadie52

4:37 pm

westford

6:49 pm

Jacula

6:49 pm

jillibus

clever mouse

6:50 pm

Andree

that would be a huge relief jac

6:50 pm

Jacula

Clever mouse! Hmm, if I send my cat it could end up like Tom & Jerry!

6:50 pm

Jacula

Andree - you'll have to set a bucket trap.

6:50 pm

Andree

i will try anything so please send cat

6:51 pm

Andree

whats a bucket trap

6:51 pm

jillibus

happy hour approacheth -- back soon

6:51 pm

Andree

bye jilli

6:52 pm

Jacula

I knew you'd ask that, Andree. Useful for catching things, expecially escaped rodent pets, without hurting them.

6:52 pm

Lindrickway

bye jilli

6:53 pm

KatieMcG

Thank you I've just got the se word :-) took me a while, I gave the cats a treat whilst H2B got the mouse and disposed of it :-)

6:53 pm

Jacula

Bucket trap = 1 bucket with food in the bottom. I plank, or similar, for ramp up into bucket. Mousey runs up ramp, falls into bucket.

6:53 pm

KatieMcG

Before the cats I found peanut butter in a mouse trap always worked, they love it

6:54 pm

jillibus

I was just going to say that -- we used peanut butter too -- they couldn't run away with it like cheese. Cheez Whiz worked too, yuk

6:54 pm

pugmama763

just don't use it with dogs in the house THEY love it too!!!

6:54 pm

Andree

this mouse has caused a few laughs, running back in was funny but funnier was i picked up my grandaughter from school last week and she asked for the treats she knows i keep for them in my handbag, when i produced a chocolate bar it had been nibbled on even through the wrapping

6:55 pm

Andree

i tried peanut butter last night katie

6:55 pm

Jacula

You can then release the mouse a 10 minute drive away from home.

6:55 pm

jillibus

taking another break...

6:56 pm

Jacula

Or you can be cruel and put soapy water or antifreeze into the bucket to drown the mouse.

6:56 pm

KatieMcG

Oh no andree, we have one in the garage but it is smart enough not to come in the house

6:56 pm

KatieMcG

I have to admit we do flush!!

6:56 pm

Andree

off to get a bucket, hope it works

6:56 pm

Jacula

I've found some illustrations of the bucket trap method, if it's of interest: http://tinyurl.com/b6zwr

6:57 pm

Andree

thx jac

6:57 pm

KatieMcG

H2B came in once and said "look at the size of this mouse" to which I replied "get that bl***y rat out of our house" - that one was already dead so thrown over the back fence

6:58 pm

Jacula

I'd use the toilet tube on the table method. Put chocolate in the table edge end of the tube. Bucket or bin below.

6:58 pm

Jacula

Let us know if it works, Andree.
