bee6000

1:06 am

jillibus

1:07 am

herinfernallady

OH thats the words. Celebrity photos and the cruel jokes played on average suburbs (i think im missing something here) POINT being people gees. Some of the celebs need a good smacking upside the head

1:07 am

westford

all I have is iPhoto and I need more editing features

1:07 am

diem

Hi all

1:13 am

mrpresident

photofilter is an excellent editing tool! It does just about everything

1:13 am

westford

not much is really 'free' ornith but for those who don't have anything I guess it's a start

1:13 am

herinfernallady

ACA have stooped to an all time low if they need to say ' its appaling and cruel on battlers' when its really just taking the piss out of celebs that generally need a slapping

1:13 am

bee6000

This puzzle has 213 words total, but does it say anywhere how many points total?

Hello everyone. Welcome Bee, yes, you need to take a course in speed-reading to keep up sometimes

1:21 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres Brittany SPears famous sans undies photos are her own fault as you could have driven a bus between her legs when she stepped out of that car

1:21 am

mrpresident

1:23 am

Ornith

hi lynxx

1:24 am

westford

oh my goodness mrp

1:24 am

Ornith

and yeah, any photo of britney, paris, or lindsey lohan showing lack of panties is their own fault - proof positive that money =/= class

1:24 am

westford

let's be fair maybe they didn't have a chance to do laundry

1:25 am

lynxxx

lol West

1:25 am

jillibus

as usual, my blank tiles all start with vowels. What is it with vowelly words?

1:25 am

westford

playing babble most likely

1:25 am

mrpresident

and, if we were lacking the official undies, we got detention! an hour of solitary boredom with a very cute teacher... we all just stared at him for an hour and fantasized... like they didn't work out why we broke the rules! LOL

1:25 am

Ornith

no clean laundry and that much money = wear your dirty pants down to the store, dammit

1:25 am

lynxxx

vowelly words are uncooperative

1:26 am

Ornith

lol mrp. you had official undies? yikes

jillibus

volcano alert

1:27 am

bee6000

It's the bottom-up rather than the top-down format, Just. It's not so much fast as it is that each Comment takes up a lot of space. Also my monitor doesn't show the full screen.

1:28 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres 530 pm

herinfernallady

LICKETY

1:29 am

Just1Mar

1:29 am

herinfernallady

G rated chat please

1:29 am

Ornith

geez, if someone tried to inspect panties these days they'd sue em for molesting kids/sexual harassment... and can't say I'd blame the suer!

1:29 am

licketySplitAUS

1:29 am

bee6000

bee6000

Thanks Ornith for the explanation.

1:30 am

herinfernallady

I will quote my GrandMother. Girls today don't realise how short their dress are as they don't ahve seamed stockings these days you can see what they had for breakfast' That was my grandmother

1:30 am

Just1Mar

I don't think you can see the tile stats if you've not paid?

1:30 am

Ornith

what do seams have to do with the length of your dress?

1:31 am

Ornith

just, bee s new enough to have the free stats trial

1:31 am

Just1Mar

ohh sorry didn't know

1:31 am

herinfernallady

Seamed Stockings you had to turn around to see how straight your seams were in the stockings.

1:31 am

lynxxx

I think Herins grandmother was refer to stockings - not pantihose

1:32 am

Ornith

ah, i see

1:32 am

Ornith

i was trying to figure out how vertical seams would show length

1:32 am

herinfernallady

Stockings the kind with out panties. Garter belt style

1:32 am

bee6000

Just, yes, I mean new Chat comes in at the top rather than added onto the bottom.

1:32 am

Ornith

but i think a lot of girls know exactly how short their skirts are

1:33 am

Just1Mar

yes that's the way it should be, bee...

1:33 am

herinfernallady

they probably do and they probably don't realise that their buts are showing

1:33 am

bee6000

Yes, Just, this is only my second game.

1:33 am

Ornith

no herin, i think they know and are just skanky!

1:33 am

jillibus

bee, the Tile Stats under the grid. One of my goals is to get at least one word for each of those letters before packing it in for the night. At this point I still have no words starting with two of the Os, one of the As, and the U

1:33 am

herinfernallady

Gotta run. Love that word skanky

1:33 am

bee6000

Yes, Just, I but it is easier fo rme to read when the new chat gets added to the bottom.

1:33 am

Ornith

2:46 am

mrpresident

then I saw his dad that afternoon and told him what he did in the bag room to one of the girls, and told him what maddison said... he laughed!

2:46 am

Andree

bye hillary

2:46 am

diem

Mari you still with us?

2:46 am

Andree

al6/24 please

2:47 am

mrpresident

so he says, 'I will go home and tell him that I saw Maddie's mum and she told me some things!'

2:47 am

mrpresident

Next day... Maddison goes up to him and says, "did your daddy punish you?? Did he take away your PlayStation? Did he take away your dollies , oh, I mean "action figures"??

2:48 am

mari

Sorry Diem - I was deep in the grid

2:49 am

mrpresident

I laughed too hard... wet pants laughing... she is so like me! She even used 'air' quotes when saying "action figures"

2:49 am

diem

did the sizes look ok?

2:50 am

mari

Haven't been yet Kids are coming down today so I'll let you know

2:50 am

bee6000

Thanks for the tip, Mrp!

2:50 am

mrpresident

oh I have something to tell you all... would love a global opinion actually... cause ain't sure how to do this. ??

2:50 am

TKS

2:51 am

mrpresident

no prob bee... he is on the way home now... he will get your email and send you the link

2:51 am

Andree

tell mrp

2:53 am

mrpresident

a very good friend, for many many years, announced a couple of days ago that he was a father... he didn't tell any of us or his family that his ex-girlfriend was expecting a child...
She is 45 and she allegedly lied to him about how old she was, and about taking the pill (birth control). So she also allegedly told him not to tell anyone, incase the child was deformed when born??
Anyone buying this??

2:54 am

westford

so did she have the baby?

2:54 am

Andree

is the baby born yet

2:54 am

mrpresident

The child was born a couple of days ago... a healthy baby boy... apparently she had all the tests done before the birth and the child was fine.
He didn't even tell his parents he was a father to be until the baby was born...
I am kind of confused to that one! We always ask him how things are and what is happening??
They are not getting along and he has no plans to be with her

2:54 am

mrpresident

He told us after the baby was born

2:55 am

westford

does he seem happy now?

2:55 am

Andree

too wierd mrp

2:55 am

Andree

was she in hiding?

2:55 am

mrpresident

He called me today and talked to me about it, saying he hated the names she picked for the child, didn't get on with her... etc etc... I just congratulated him and he brushed it off

2:56 am

bee6000

Some people prefer not to announce they are expecting until after the birth (apart from to those to whom it will be obvious).

2:56 am

mrpresident

she was andree... she was hiding incase the child was deformed cause of her age

2:56 am

westford

some men take awhile to warm up

2:56 am

mrpresident

bee, can you express how you know this?

2:56 am

bee6000

If i use that other interfact, will I still see that chat?

2:56 am

mrpresident

west, he was great about it, but very upset that he wasn't 'allowed' to tell any of his friends, and even his family!

2:57 am

Andree

sounds pretty strange to me, thought you could have tests these days to check on such things

2:57 am

mrpresident

she did andree, it was all fin

2:57 am

westford

more mothers now are in their 40's but there is always that worry

2:57 am

mrpresident

yes bee

2:58 am

Andree

and i have never heard of anyone keeping it quiet until birth even people i know who were not pleased to be pregnant

2:58 am

bee6000

How I know that some people prefer this? Because it has at times been my experience. Seems odd not to tell even close freinds or relatives, though.

2:58 am

mrpresident

totally bee

2:58 am

bee6000

Okay, I will contact Lickety, thanks.

2:59 am

mrpresident

he is a good friend, very close to my husband, even works with him!!

2:59 am

westford

he'll be bringing in pictures soon enough

3:00 am

mrpresident

I have never, in my years, heard of anyone suppressing the birth of a baby to anyone. That is just plain mean

3:00 am

Andree

a friend of mine had 6 kids and she said to her husband i have really bad news, he said you haven't lost your new bracelet have you, she said no i'm pregnant again, we roared laughing at that story

3:01 am

bee6000

Well, I think it is good that a person respect another person's wishes for discretion. I think it is the woman whose behavior is odd, not that of your friend.

3:01 am

mrpresident

love that story andree!

3:01 am

3:01 am

when I was pregnant with my 4th in less than 6 years our 2nd daughter asked if I couldn't just have a kitty instead

sorry pb for me dont have to look far for the fish

Pregnant teens used to be sent away. I guess I can understand the woman being nervous, though it is a shame she didn't tell mor epeople so as to get support while being worried.

3:03 am

Andree

my friends kids were constantly asking their mum for another baby and she was about to elant but as a last try she said a baby or a dog, they chose the dog, roared laughing at that story too

Right, I know, sorry I didn't make it more clear that those were two separate thoughts there.

3:08 am

bee6000

Right, the woman sounds a bit off, Mrp. Your friend sounds like he was just respecting her wishes.

3:09 am

mrpresident

LOL!! sorry darling! it is hard for me to dress cause of the arms...

3:09 am

mrpresident

Surprisingly bee, he did... I am so sorry for him though, it sounds as though he will be paying, but not having much to do with the child

3:10 am

mrpresident

I have to take todays pic... I look like a shotgun victim

3:10 am

mrpresident

bee, where do you herald from?

sorry if I have been abrupt today... am usually a kitten, but today I am a leopard with a thorn in my paw.

mrpresident

deep breathes!! aahhhhhhh....now where is the valium? :D

3:14 am

I am in the United States. Your friend should get a paternity test, first of all, and if he wants rights as a father -- especially a relationship with the child -- he should get an attorney.

had an absolutely crazy day yesterday, but did not panic. To give you an example of how crazy: I cooked an ovendish in the morning, so we could eat even on a hectic day... I started the oven in time... and when we got the dish out, it was still icecold.

3:24 am

3:26 am

ardilla

phantom: alcohol

3:27 am

yeah, it was really a mess, all that could go wrong, went wrong. And still I have not panicked, was in time to teach symbolism at the church and made it a terrific lesson for all of us. So I am proud of me.

3:27 am

lynxxx

that looks a bit desperate Ardilla

3:27 am

My daughter loves Miami Ink

3:46 am

if you can and want to, go pro, bee, and ask Lickety for the Babble Expert. If you are on windows, that is. It makes it much easier... our lickety does what drG cannot or will not do :D

3:47 am

redturtlehead

I dont use Babble expert, btu I do spend a great deal of time in the Penalty Box.

3:48 am

Andree

i don't use it either red

3:48 am

of course, our FMitch has made the sin bin so attractive that people like red err on purpose, just to get in there...

3:48 am

Andree

co7/36 please

3:49 am

redturtlehead

LOL distraction.

3:49 am

bee6000

I cannot afford that at this time, Sprite. But I did contact Lickety at the suggestion of Mrp. Thanks for your advice!

3:49 am

redturtlehead

The only clue, I have Andree is that it is a great musicla group from Cape Breton.

3:49 am

sprite

yvw, bee :)

3:50 am

bee6000

I have two 7-letter words as well!

3:50 am

bee6000

I think Mrp said Pro wasn't necessary for Lickety's special interface?

3:50 am

westford

so it's a french word red?

3:50 am

sprite

tough to clue, that co. Or maybe not... a partner, a friend, a mate, com****. Change 3rd letter.

3:50 am

lynxxx

co7 metals does this when it rusts but change the last o to another vowel

3:51 am

sprite

lol lyn!

3:51 am

how about small bed, plus sticky stuff and plural it.

3:52 am

Andree

thx sprite, red and lynxxx

3:52 am

westford

ty got them both

3:52 am

bee6000

My 7-letters are an AL and an RO.

3:52 am

diem

red thats the only one i got

3:53 am

sprite

bee, if mrP says so, it probably isn't. I thought lickety only gave the expert to pro players or longtime players, to avoid problems with drG, but I could be mistaken. MrP is in a much better position to know :)

3:53 am

sprite

my ta is a plural, permanent pics on body

3:54 am

redturtlehead

Lickety gave me Expert when I was not pro, but probabkly because he felt bad because I spend so much time in the PB.

3:54 am

Andree

another 7 is ro to turn past tense

3:55 am

bee6000

I am having trouble following the recent clues. Can you restate which clue goes with which two letters?

3:56 am

bee6000

I might be remembering wrong what Mrp said, Sprite.

penalty box

human error respite

3:58 am

bee6000

Oh, by accident, Sprite, because of trouble navigating between the two text-entry places?

3:58 am

lynxxx

al6 al4.6 + abbrev for thankyou - then plural

3:58 am

sprite

indeed, bee! The setup of this babble site is not user-friendly in that respect, if you chat and then go on babbling it is bound to happen.

3:59 am

redturtlehead

but its alright thats why we have the PB, its fun to hang out in there with the clue sinners.

3:59 am

thanks for the list, BabbleRabble

3:59 am

man, not an easy grid today. I could use some satori.

I agree, bee. And I was stupid enough to say so, when the site was changed into this pro setup, so drG still hates me, lol.

4:02 am

sprite

Amen, BabbleRabble, but only in retrospect!

4:02 am

Andree

thx lynxxx, what a strange word

4:02 am

bee6000

I feel badly, because I like to respond to people who say somethingto me in Chat, especially if they are responding to something I said or asked, but here I am having troubel manuevering, so I am probably being rude to people who have been answering my questions.

4:03 am

o-o

bee, don't worry be happy

4:04 am

Andree

nothing stupid about saying what you think sprite

4:04 am

bee6000

Thanks Diem. Was that definition in reference to something I said?

4:04 am

sprite

bee, we usually do not think people are being rude. The chat can move very fast too, and you should not worry.

4:04 am

bee6000

Aw, thanks Babble.

4:05 am

lynxxx

the pl6.24 & 7.36 is right up Reds alley

4:05 am

bee6000

Thanks Sprite. It is indeed good to assume the better of people.

4:05 am

sprite

Andree, the only stupid thing about it was me thinking that if someone asks for feedback on changes, he wants real feedback, not just compliments. I really learned from that experience, I usually check first now if people want real feedback. Most don't.

4:06 am

o-o

if someone asks me for feedback, they will get it ... if they don't like what I say, TOUGH

4:07 am

bee6000

The Chat doesn't seem to move fast in and of itself, but rather seems -- to me, at least -- to take up too much vertical room per entry. Also, my preference would be to add new entries to the bottom -- as Scrabulous chat, Instant Messaging, and IRC do -- because that is more natural.

4:07 am

o-o

sort of like that old saw, beware of what you ask for

4:07 am

sprite

hm... you got me there, BabbleRabble. Still scared to make people angry at me, I think. Will think on that one.

hi haz

4:18 am

bee6000

Sprite and Haz -- hi Haz, pleased to meet you -- my resolution is the best that it can be for this setup, other thinsg work fine, and they are indeed beside eahc other -- there just isn't enough room.

4:19 am

bee6000

Andree, I wihs I ocudl look over your shoudler to see what you have done.

4:19 am

lynxxx

Bee - Haz is probably right. I have played Babble on at least 7 different types of computers (incl Macs) and screens (large & v small) and have never had a problem with the "sizing"

4:20 am

o-o

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

4:20 am

sprite

my only problem with it not fitting was after my computer crash, before reinstalling the screen drivers.

4:21 am

ardilla

lol BR

4:21 am

ardilla

clue for the 8 pls?

4:21 am

sprite

and bee, you will find that lots of babblers use correct phrases. It is wonderful to chat with chatters who know their language(s).

4:21 am

sprite

and God, while you are at it... please grant me patience. And I WANT TO HAVE IT RIGHT NOW!

4:22 am

ardilla

lol sprite

4:24 am

Indeed, Sprite. It is so refreshing! That is why I wanted to apprecaite it, but, ironically, I did so quite clumsily.

4:25 am

sprite

bee6000

It's funny, this format for clues.

4:36 am

sprite

hm no, only the picnic pest bug is called this.

4:37 am

BA 7/40 with water has me confused. BA is worth 4 points and French water is worth 6, so how is there another letter in there?

4:52 am

french water is worth 4. It is the singular.

4:53 am

hillary

french water is worth 4 ... it's only three letters

4:55 am

hillary

Ardilla - did you get the pl6.24 & 7.36?

5:30 am

bee6000

I stil lhave to scroll around. How does haveing les sroom help people with the PB issue?

5:32 am

lynxxx

If you use the 'Lickety Add' feature it will allow only a single word to be entered into the grid. If more than one word entered it will go to the chat

5:33 am

bee6000

Okay, thanks. That explains that. But I have even more scrolling to do, though it goes mor esmoothloy now.

5:33 am

Bee - your size and scrolling unfortunately seems to remain a problem just for you. I am afraid I am no computer whizz so cannot advise

This is Babble Land, Lori. We come to search and destroy.

5:59 am

herinfernallady

Bought 90c in the dollar.

5:59 am

LoriP

***locks and loads, seeks out words lest Scrabbler send an elite squad to "reeducate me"***

5:59 am

Tones

hello everyone

5:59 am

herinfernallady

I tend to try and get stuff cheaper (or buy books online)

5:59 am

LoriP

G'd morning Tones

5:59 am

montreal13

hi tones - makes sense herin

6:00 am

herinfernallady

Hi Tones

6:00 am

LoriP

I'm doin' it, but you can't make me like it. ***pouts***

6:01 am

herinfernallady

I have whined about this before. One book i want is $70 in the stores and $30 delivered to my door. It makes no sense

6:02 am

Scrabbler

Hi Tones

6:03 am

montreal13

since i read quite a bit, i have stopped buying books - i use both Longueuil's and Montreal's network of libraries - i thus have access to over 30 libraries and it's expanding all the time...

6:03 am

Scrabbler

Lori, you are one of the Babble Rangers, just having a tough morning on assignment. A fellow soldier like me is trying to get you motivated. Hey, there aren't even any RE words today.

6:03 am

herinfernallady

I am jelous mont that is a lot off librarys

6:05 am

LoriP

Okay, that's the deal breaker. No re's! ***Puts on fake happy face, and stares at yellow tiles earnestly.***

6:05 am

herinfernallady

Hugs Lori

6:05 am

montreal13

I have access to Montreal's network through my brother Richard since i don't live in the city proper, otherwise, it would cost me a fair bit - as it is, it's all free !

6:06 am

herinfernallady

Lovely

6:06 am

Scrabbler

Libraries are bargains!

6:07 am

montreal13

finally greyed-out 1 box (corner P)

6:07 am

Scrabbler

**wondering if Lori is having fun yet?**

6:07 am

herinfernallady

I am amused that one of the Sims 2 new characters has the same name as me and also likes the same stuff as i do.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Yippee, Monty!

6:08 am

montreal13

lol herin AND scrabs...

6:08 am

LoriP

Yea monty. You're in MENSA mode today! I however, retain all rights to DENSA.

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Lori! You are being a Cranky Pants today. Haha

6:09 am

montreal13

lol lori... temporary situation i'm sure...

6:09 am

herinfernallady

Lori do you have the same problem as me? To big undies wedging up your butt?

6:10 am

montreal13

1st there were grumpy pants... and now cranky pants... ? is this a new trend ?

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Lady!!!!!!!! Hahahahahaha

6:10 am

Scrabbler

I am Sleepy Pants. We are the dwarves of Babble.

6:11 am

herinfernallady

Seriously i was grumpy pants today as everything i was wearing was too damn big

6:11 am

montreal13

in that case i am .... pants... nah, rather not say...

6:11 am

Scrabbler

I have had 3 nights in a row of lousy sleep.

6:12 am

Scrabbler

Happy Pants, Luc?

6:12 am

montreal13

is this usual for you scrabs ?

6:12 am

LoriP

The problem is not my pants, and in the interest of International Diplomacy, I will not discuss my pants further! ***Stoopid yellow tiles***

6:13 am

herinfernallady

Love you lorry

6:13 am

montreal13

not happy exactly...

6:13 am

herinfernallady

Oh yah i just found a bus from my door step to the mall

6:13 am

Scrabbler

When I am stressed out I don't sleep well----Monday it was work stuff/boss Richard Head being an idiot. Tuesday it was money worries. Last night it was money worries.

6:13 am

LoriP

I have 14 words. Am I done yet?

6:14 am

montreal13

er not quite lori ... but close to !

6:14 am

Scrabbler

Where is Uniquity? Lori needs an intervention.

6:14 am

montreal13

you know you need your sleep scrabs...

6:14 am

Yah 10 min bus trip after yoga YAH happy bounce

6:15 am

Haz1558

I think Lori needs a soothing word or two. I can feel the vibes from here.

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Hi Nutter--help Lori, please. She is being defiant this AM.

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Hazel--off to the PB---so5!

6:15 am

evanonut

6:15 am

montreal13

6:16 am

Haz1558

6:16 am

LoriP

6:16 am

LoriP

***laughs heartily at Haz*** ---------> PB

6:16 am

Haz1558

Objection. I used so5 within a word, not on its own. Others have done worse. I'm sitting down in protest.

6:17 am

Scrabbler

OK, I shall take the compassionate route. Lori, we love you and know that you are having trouble becoming motivated to find words. You are a darn great Babbler and we know that you will finish this grid in the 17+ remaining hours. You go girl!

6:17 am

montreal13

lol hazel and tr4/5 !

6:17 am

Scrabbler

And Hazel gets off on a technicality. **wondering when Hazel went to law school?**

6:17 am

Haz1558

I think Scrabbler is showing signs of double personality.

6:18 am

evanonut

know what i say, duck the words...it's just a stupid silly puzzle. pick your nose instead, the results can be much more interesting

6:18 am

Scrabbler

Nope, you made me consider another approach to Lori.

6:18 am

montreal13

go Lori go !! - lol nuts !

6:18 am

herinfernallady

Hands Lori an Easter Egg or 10

6:18 am

LoriP

6:41 am

montreal13

6:41 am

redturtlehead

I am headed to NC this time next week, I can not wait.

6:42 am

littlebit

lol mont!

6:42 am

redturtlehead

6:43 am

montreal13

6:44 am

redturtlehead

Montreal, you are just tough. I am of the weaker species,

6:44 am

littlebit

yeah, i used to live in northern michigan. it got pretty cold up there.

6:48 am

montreal13

red, you didn't find NM's weather too hot ??

6:48 am

redturtlehead

Oh gosh, Montreal. I am in Northern NM, it got to freezing last night, and then up to about 70 in the day, not hot enough.

6:49 am

redturtlehead

ABout 60 miles from Colorado. We flew a pt to denver tonight.

6:50 am

montreal13

ahh okay - Florida will have the added bonus of "humidity" though...

6:50 am

redturtlehead

I actually like humidity. I am odd, but I lived in NC sooo long that....

6:51 am

montreal13

jbv, my memory of living in Boston is that what they call 'Spring' we call 'Winter' here. LOL

7:24 am

nancethefan

hey annie & little

7:25 am

JBV

LOL, dc, if you're getting ready for cherry blossoms, you're way ahead of us here in NJ -

7:26 am

JBV

dc - do you know the Spanish saying that there are only 2 seasons in Madrid - el invierno y el infierno

7:26 am

dcseain

indeed, jbv, i lived there for a year in my teens.

bye montreal

7:27 am

dcseain

they dryness of La Mancha amazed me, as did that fact that most of Spain is altiplano and desert.

7:27 am

montreal13

we have a similar saying here JBV - we have 2 seasons, winter and july ! - Ã la prochaine ! - "ACTUAL POOF"

7:28 am

JBV

really, monty? interesting - it seems the reverse of the Spanish one - bye for now

7:29 am

o-o

here it is winter and construction

7:29 am

dcseain

i don't recall the heat in Madrid being bad. Maybe because it's so much less humid than DC.

7:29 am

dcseain

winter and construction, babrab?

7:30 am

JBV

well, I remember broiling summer days - it's a good thing I never understood the Celsius temperatures or I would have never ventured out

7:30 am

dcseain

i remember days of 38-43Âºc in Barcelona. 90or so F that is.

7:31 am

redturtlehead

Back for a moment, trying to keep up my work. DC I saw you on Facebook.

7:32 am

dcseain

yes, i'm on facebook, too, which i actually use, if not to its fullest.

7:32 am

JBV

yes, dc, me too, except 39 is more like 100 degrees

7:32 am

redturtlehead

I have just discovered Facebook. It is rather a good timewaster.

7:32 am

dcseain

~51= 100, as 100 = 212.

7:32 am

dcseain

indeed so, red :)

7:33 am

redturtlehead

But I did get in touch with a very close friend from College, and its neat to see photos of his kiddos and such.

7:33 am

JBV

dc, if you do the calculations, it's not that direct, there's a website that does it for you: http://www.csgnetwork.com/tempconvjava

7:34 am

JBV

sorry about the double - I just did it and they say that 39C = 102 F !!

7:34 am

redturtlehead

39 c is 102 ish. We do temps in celcius...

7:35 am

o-o

I do temps at national weather service

7:35 am

JBV

that's why I said I was glad I never figured that out while I was there - it wasn't until I came home that I found out why they say only mad dogs and Englishment (and American tourists) are out in the midday sun

7:35 am

dcseain

huh. my bad. i've worked mostly in C in my life, and had little need for conversion, so i guess i mapped wrong early. :)

7:36 am

dcseain

a friend originally from NYC complained to me one day that her then-8-yr-old son never went and ran around during the day, like she did when young. I explained that it's too hot for that, and that we played school and hotel and what so we didn't have to move until very late in the day.

7:37 am

dcseain

it befuddled her that children would be that impacted by the heat and humidity. LOL

7:37 am

redturtlehead

Did she play in NYC?

7:37 am

JBV

hmm, another sign of global warming ? children can't play outside anymore?

7:37 am

redturtlehead

JBV, I think it depends on the kids. Kids here play outside, and klids in NC definitely are out in my neighbourhood, playing Bball...

7:38 am

dcseain

yes, red, in brooklyn

7:38 am

AsGreen

good morning...I made a deal w/myself that if it was over 200 I wouldn't do the grid today (yesterday's was too hard!) but...I do see lots of S's.....as in plural....what to do, what to do

7:38 am

redturtlehead

WOnder if she didnt go to the parks?

7:38 am

dcseain

jbv, we were lackadaisical about playing mid-day 30 years ago

7:39 am

carleekat

so is this grid worth starting?....i still have not bothered to start

7:39 am

redturtlehead

I am at 139 Asg...it is a bit difficult after that for me. I have 74 left...

7:39 am

AsGreen

well, two s's - lots of t's

7:39 am

o-o

the grid is very easy, AsG

7:39 am

Anniebrook

there are lots of very nice parks in NYC where children can play...I was a park and street kid myself, lo these many years ago

7:39 am

AsGreen

lol carlee - that's my question! good morning

7:39 am

JBV

i'm from the generation where our moms sent us out in the a.m. and we didn't home until we were hungry or it was dark

7:40 am

Anniebrook

7:40 am

AsGreen

BabbleRabble, have YOU ever met a hard grid? :)

7:40 am

o-o

9:02 am

9:02 am

kje

agree JBV - I tried that too

9:02 am

dcseain

maybe we took te ta into English earlier, so it naturalised?

9:02 am

kje

coated with lots of Old Bay and served with fresh eastern shore corn - nothing better in the summer

9:03 am

dcseain

9:43 am

Angela

worth a shot then...

9:44 am

kje

hit it with 800 red

9:44 am

redturtlehead

but I find I am very allergic to this juniper polen, so that could be it too, but I have not been to dentist in a few years so I imagine I am pushing my luck.

9:45 am

redturtlehead

Well, either way i will live through this.

9:45 am

Angela

I would say so red - never a bad thing to check the pearly whites

9:45 am

Angela

I have to go every 6 mos for a cleaning or else I end up with something wrong...

9:46 am

redturtlehead

I need to go but I just really hate to try to hold mouth open for so long.

9:46 am

redturtlehead

We shall wee.

9:46 am

9:47 am

9:47 am

kje

did you really mean wee - that is funny

9:47 am

redturtlehead

Angela I have to take Advil and benadry, but its more that my mouth really opens narrowly, and my jaw gets sore.

9:47 am

good evening everyone

11:35 am

stidmama

hello orange cat! how was your day?

11:35 am

movieman

clue for the 8 plz

11:36 am

stidmama

sorry movieman, not up to the list yet (only have 3 7s so far)

11:36 am

stidmama

we saw the Horton Hears a Who movie.... it was nice. NOT completely dumbed down, which was a bit of a novelty considered it had a G rating! I loved it.

11:37 am

OrangeCat

several banged knees and we're still teething. had a good time digging at the beach and feeding fish. they're off for the evening visit to grandparents

11:37 am

movieman

I saw Spiderwick and 10,000 B.C. yesterday.....both pretty good movies I thought

11:37 am

stidmama

how nice to have grandparents close enough for that. :-) teething is SO hard on parents!

11:38 am

OrangeCat

i'm hoping the Horton thing comes here soon. i'm getting sick of this penguin dvd!

11:38 am

stidmama

My kid wants to see those, also. I think the 10,000 BC movie would probably be best on the big screen, but am hoping we can put off spiderwick until we can get it from the netflix

11:39 am

stidmama

I think you'll like it orange, there are some funny references to adult/pop culture that don't interfere with the story line, but certainly gave the adults a giggle.

11:40 am

pabtrek

MM, ta8 french for picture plural

11:40 am

stidmama

hmph. up to 100 words, but slowing down a lot. hello pabtrek!

11:40 am

thanks for the 8!

hi all :)

11:41 am

stidmama

movieman, sorta builds off the platform you put plates and things on to eat supper.

11:41 am

stidmama

hey atalante!

11:41 am

Atalante

stiddy? how long would it take to drive from seattle up to vancouver?

11:41 am

sassyB

hey OrangeCat, my 20 yr. old daughter college student) was just offered an internship in Athens this summer and we are hoping to be ale to go visit her there. Any recommendations for what we should definitely try to see? Should we try to go to the islands?

11:41 am

OrangeCat

they all like the dr seuss books. the 1fish 2 fish one is their favorite

11:42 am

movieman

got the 8 (and a 7)......ty all

11:42 am

stidmama

B.C.? I think I would allow five hours (border crossing, not sure how fast it goes) I think the actual drive is probably about three and a half or four hours. Hold on, I'll check...

11:42 am

OrangeCat

athens is a great city but big and dirty. 4days max. then u should hit Crete or Rhodes

11:43 am

pabtrek

yw

11:43 am

OrangeCat

in athens definately check the parthenon and the outdoor antique markets

11:43 am

Atalante

my husband has a strange idea to drive up from Seattle to Banff / Calgary area

11:43 am

sassyB

thx, do they have ferries to get you there, or would we need to book something beforehand?

11:43 am

stidmama

I think that's about right -- it's what I would allow from seattle, but I tend to like to get places early, rather than late.

11:44 am

OrangeCat

u can jump on ferries really easy. best to book when u get there. flights are often and cheap too

11:44 am

stidmama

oh -- I went to Banff about 30 years ago. Beautiful place. Calgary felt like a cow town still, though it was a city... not sure what it's like now.

11:44 am

OrangeCat

the ferry from athens to crete is an overnite thing. same for rhodes

11:45 am

stidmama

and when, atalante? we could maybe meet up briefly while you were in seattle...

11:45 am

sassyB

ok, thx. what about santorini or myknos?

11:46 am

stidmama

You might like it better to fly to Vancouver or Calgary directly? Or is Seattle really part of the destination?

11:46 am

Atalante

we went to banff a few years ago in the winter, he now wants to see it in the summer. and we're going to be in portland in august so somehow I need to combine everything. 2nd week of August is around Seattle I think. I'm actually going to be in Oregon all month, but most of the time preparing for Dragon*Con and stuff

11:46 am

OrangeCat

santorini is a tourist trap. very beautiful, but not a whole lot to see or do other than eat and shop. there is a nice day trip to the volcano. santorini i'd say 2 days max unless you're into non stop shopping and eating. not much else there. mykanos is more or less the same, but it's a bigger place so there's more shopping and eating

11:47 am

teamrivas

satan not a word?

11:47 am

stidmama

oooh! ooooh! I am stuck in Washington in August (kid is in a summer play). I know you will be focused, but... if you're driving up from Portland anyway, we really are pretty much on the way, and a good stopping point on the way to Seattle (about two 1/2 - three hours north of portland, seattle is another hour further)

11:48 am

nbjasmine

team- its a proper name

11:48 am

stidmama

I know, team! I tried that several times already!

11:48 am

stidmama

I think it's a proper noun.

11:48 am

Atalante

definitely!

11:48 am

teamrivas

i never knew the devil to be proper!

11:48 am

stidmama

LOL team!

11:48 am

nbjasmine

well there you go

11:49 am

nbjasmine

now see, devil would be a word.

11:49 am

debjed

need one more R from fourth row - have ru4,6, ra4,4 and ra6,21

11:49 am

teamrivas

agreed!

11:49 am

sassyB

we are not big shoppers, and eating is not a major priority although I do enjoy trying new foods, so it sounds like we could probaly avoid the more touristy places. What about traveling to other places in Greece (not the islands)?

11:50 am

stidmama

okay atalante... let me know when you have plans firmed up. *starts cleaning house frantically*

11:50 am

OrangeCat

when is it you're coming?

11:50 am

sassyB

July

11:51 am

Atalante

i will do!

11:51 am

stidmama

sorry deb, I am completely confused by that corner myself!

11:51 am

OrangeCat

depends on your tolerance to heat

11:51 am

nbjasmine

deb- ra** and rave?

11:51 am

sassyB

not sure of the exact dates yet. my daughter will be there from June 1 to Aug. 2

11:51 am

debjed

have that nb:)

11:52 am

Atalante

oooooh hot!

11:52 am

stidmama

woot! down to 100 *proud mama look* off to try to find something that will stay down. tummy is being very very peculiar today.

11:53 am

OrangeCat

southern islands get reallllly hot. crete will be 45+. northern areas cooler. mainland to the south and west of athens really really pretty and not terribly touristic. some areas still badly damaged becuz of the big fires last year tho

11:54 am

sassyB

i prefer hot to cold, but I'm no longer a sun worshiper (thanks to melanoma).

11:54 am

sassyB

is it wise to rent a car and travel around mainland?

11:56 am

OrangeCat

greek drivers maniacs! but car rentals are cheap and its a ton of fun to find the back roads and see the smaller villages

11:57 am

OrangeCat

the islands of kos and samos are also great choices. rhodes is amazing

11:57 am

OrangeCat

another really nice island which is close to athens is Andros.

11:58 am

sassyB

do I need to be worried about my daughter living in Athens for 2 months? (she would kill me if she knew I was asking that question)

11:58 am

OrangeCat

the norther area of thessalonkiki is great. that's sort of on the way to turkey

11:58 am

Atalante

if my husband manged it as a student, anyone can!

11:59 am

sassyB

thx, Ata, I need reassurance!

11:59 am

OrangeCat

not at all. a woman can walk around completely safe. of course, there are bad areas but that's just common sense

11:59 am

Atalante

he is completely clueless and managed to stay there unscathed!

12:00 pm

sassyB

haha, sounds encouraging

12:00 pm

sassyB

she will be living in the Kolonaki section

12:01 pm

phaeton

Done!! any clues needed?

12:01 pm

cheeky

i see a ta6/18 that i can add the ending ab4 to it and make a 10 letter word that makes sense but must not be in the dictionary.

12:02 pm

OrangeCat

alot of students there i think. i dont know athens all that well. i can find the IKEA and the Starbucks and that's about it. my husband is the guy to ask. he's a policeman and spends alot of time in athens

12:03 pm

Atalante

aha! if she has a connection to a policeman in athens, that should make you happier, sassy!

12:03 pm

sassyB

well, I REALLY appreciate all the info you've given me, and I will def use your suggestions when planning our trip.

12:04 pm

OrangeCat

any time..glad to help. i know i was really overwhelmed when i first moved to greece.

12:04 pm

sassyB

yes, that does help, Ata. I hate being a worrier, but I just can't help myself.

12:05 pm

OrangeCat

he's not a policeman in athens. he goes to the criminal courts there for trials

12:06 pm

sassyB

hopefully not too many!!

12:06 pm

Atalante

I used to accidentally forget to tell my mother all the dangers of the places I went to. I'd tell my step-dad, so he knew the real picture!

12:07 pm

sassyB

oh me too, why do you think I worry so much!!

12:07 pm

Uneaixoise

same here, ata--when I lived in France and hitched all over the place with friends!

12:08 pm

Atalante

I'll always remember coming back from the Philippines and telling her that actually yes, we were up the road from (what was in the news then) some pirates going onshore and beheading people

12:09 pm

Atalante

mother was unimpressed!

12:09 pm

Uneaixoise

:-D

12:09 pm

sassyB

oh dear....

12:10 pm

OrangeCat

help with the u's ??

12:10 pm

Atalante

so compared to that, I think she's fairly safe, sassy ;)

12:10 pm

Uneaixoise

ur4 part of a constellation

12:10 pm

sassyB

i still haven't told my mom most of the "adventures" i've had over the years

12:10 pm

Uneaixoise

ur5 latin plural

12:11 pm

Atalante

ooooh tell *us*!

12:11 pm

Uneaixoise

oh, I would never tell my mom EVERYTHING! LOL

12:11 pm

sassyB

yes, I believeyou're right, Ata. Hopefully no beheadings in Athens!!

12:11 pm

OrangeCat

no beheadings in athens :-) lots of pickpockets tho

12:12 pm

Uneaixoise

meeting friends from out of town for lunch--BBL

12:12 pm

sassyB

uhoh, i'll have to warn her about that

12:12 pm

Atalante

I would always tell my step-father everything I knew beforehand, cos I did end up in some fairly "interesting" places. But he was always fine with it, and wouldn't tell mum!

12:13 pm

OrangeCat

big problem here with gypsies.

12:13 pm

Atalante

talking of dodgy places - guess what the average life expectancy is for a woman in Zimbabwe now? (just saw this on the news)

12:13 pm

sassyB

that was good, Ata. I don't know if my daughter tells my husband things that she doesn't tell me, but he certainly never seems to worrry as much as I do.

12:14 pm

Atalante

she probably does then!!

12:14 pm

sassyB

i'll guess 55, Ata

12:14 pm

FMitch

30?

12:14 pm

Atalante

hi FM!

12:15 pm

FMitch

Hi all

12:15 pm

Atalante

34. Isn't that awful?

12:15 pm

Atalante

and 37 for men

12:15 pm

sassyB

are the gypsies confrontational, Orange, or just anoying?

12:15 pm

FMitch

I hoped I would be way out on my guess.

12:15 pm

Atalante

nope *sigh*

12:15 pm

sassyB

yes, horible, Ata

12:16 pm

Atalante

makes me want to run round and scream a lot in frustration

12:18 pm

FMitch

I am very fed up with that block of Ts, they are taunting and tormenting me.

12:19 pm

Atalante

tsk!

12:20 pm

OrangeCat

gypsies just lurk around watching for opportunities to grab whatever. and don't fall for the 'sick children' routine. the gypsies dope up their kids with cough meds and make them look ill and then lay around with their hands out. it's an act.

12:21 pm

Atalante

are they actual gypsies?

12:21 pm

OrangeCat

if they spot u watching them, they'll follow u around begging. best thing to do is ignore them

12:22 pm

OrangeCat

yes. the real deal. mostly from romania. some from albania. the romanian ones are the worst. albanians just trying to get by. romanian ones cunning

12:24 pm

sassyB

good to know, Orange. She goes to college in a town with a lot of homeless people, so I think she's become pretty adept at ignoring the begging. But she prob doesn't have much experience with actual pickpockets (except for our visit to Italy 2 years ago), so I'll have to warn her to be very careful about that.

12:24 pm

Atalante

surprised there;s any albanians left in albania lol

12:24 pm

OrangeCat

i think most of them are here ata

12:25 pm

Atalante

yes - and not to give in to any sob stories however awful they seem

12:25 pm

Atalante

there's a lot here too!

12:26 pm

OrangeCat

some of them look really pathetic. the tourists are generally horrified when they see these scrawny sick looking small kids. but it's an act

12:26 pm

FMitch

Pickpockets are all over every big town or city and tourist areas the wold over, you just need to be aware and astute and don't flash money, mobles passports etc arouond. All common sense stuff really.

12:27 pm

sassyB

and I guess if the kids are raised that way, the problem just persists indefinitely. pretty sad

12:27 pm

Deeha

Im stuck on another easy one -I expect!- sa5.10 the one before to fill up

12:28 pm

12:30 pm

Haz1558

12:33 pm

12:40 pm

Atalante

Raef: He includes spending time with his girlfriend, acting, lawn tennis, antiquarian book collecting and cognac among his interests.

12:40 pm

Haz1558

I'd just take a baseball bat to him and be done with it.

12:40 pm

FMitch

12:40 pm

carleekat

12:43 pm

carleekat

ahhhh...ok..I don't watch either of them..the only reality tv show we watch is idol

12:43 pm

Haz1558

They get tasks to do - they start off the series claiming they're God's gift to business, then quickly make fools of themselves.

12:43 pm

FMitch

Can't wait to see the best saleswoman in europe in action (yea right)

12:43 pm

Haz1558

Lucinda is the one in the pink beret. And there's an Irish woman who claims to be the best salesperson in Europe. Yeah, right.

12:44 pm

Atalante

oh she's awful

12:44 pm

Atalante

Jannifer is the Saleswoman: ""I can sell anything. I can sell pieces of paper for Â£50 and making a living out of it."

12:51 pm

FMitch

No not if you think about Anthony whose only failiure was getting a B in French

12:51 pm

Angela

I didn't know the meaning so that's all I could think of :)

robin10

I SAID HI HAZ1558

12:53 pm

Angela

flunked all 4 semesters in Spanish one year...

12:53 pm

Haz1558

It's not the French that annoys me, it's the fact that he's got a lot of growing up to do. Life throws a lot worse at you than a B in French.

12:53 pm

Angela

but I had a GORGEOUS boyfriend - so things even out

12:53 pm

FMitch

I have never pfft so much at a TV show nor been quite so gobsmaked for so long.

1:05 pm

Haz1558

Bye As.

1:06 pm

Angela

my dad met Martin Landau two weeks ago while having breakfast...that's all I've got for famous sightings

1:08 pm

FMitch

Haz's friends hat was on the head of someone who met the ween last week.
Did I tell that right Haz?

1:08 pm

Haz1558

I thought the hat met the Queen but maybe the ween was there in some capacity.

1:09 pm

Haz1558

My sister-in-law lent a hat to a friend whose mother was being presented to the Queen. We're getting a plinth made.

1:09 pm

Vicuna

For the mother or the hat?

1:09 pm

FMitch

Ah well those who ahve met her know its ok to call her the ween

1:10 pm

FMitch

Vi!!!

1:10 pm

Haz1558

For the hat, Vicuna. We're wondering whether it would be tacky to take money in order to view. What do you think?

1:10 pm

Atalante

Â£5 per view. Â£10 to touch it

1:10 pm

Haz1558

And hello, by the way!

1:10 pm

Vicuna

My children were the recipients of "the James Taylor hats" when they were born. Apparently the singer James Taylor has twins, and they were handed down, through 2 intermediary sets of twins, to ours. That's my famous hat tale.

1:10 pm

Haz1558

That's more than they were charging for a lobster...

1:11 pm

Vicuna

Hello!

1:11 pm

Angelsong

Hi, all....Stidmama, are you here?

1:11 pm

Vicuna

Touching only if wearing white cotton gloves, of course.

1:11 pm

Atalante

perhaps Â£15 for touching the hat plus a lobster

1:11 pm

Vicuna

The hats were handed down, I mean, not the singer's kids.

1:11 pm

Haz1558

Did I ever tell you the story of the headmistress and the hat?

1:11 pm

Vicuna

15 for touching a lobster? That seems a bit steep, even with a hat involved.

1:12 pm

FMitch

Oh great! story time with HAz *settles down*

1:12 pm

Haz1558

No, Â£15 for touching the hat and a lobster thrown in as well.

1:12 pm

Vicuna

Oh, I hope it's quick, though! I have only 10 minutes!

1:12 pm

FMitch

Shhhhh

1:12 pm

Atalante

is liam neeson involved?

1:12 pm

Haz1558

Okay, the story of the headmistress and the hat.

1:12 pm

Haz1558

Preceded by the story of the headmistress and the slip.

1:13 pm

Vicuna

*squirms impatiently*

1:13 pm

Haz1558

Sister-in-law was on a school cruise with headmistress - a single woman who lived with her mother and two sisters, the mother being very much in charge.

1:14 pm

Haz1558

Headmistress couldn't find her slip. Chaos ensued - people accused of theft, she was sure that someone had fashioned some sort of implement to reach in and steal it.

1:14 pm

FMitch

*types some words in for Vi to help her along*

1:14 pm

Vicuna

Must have been some slip!

1:14 pm

Atalante

she only brought 1 slip for a whole cruise?

1:15 pm

Atalante

perhaps it was edged with lobsters

1:15 pm

Haz1558

Finally it was found. The steward had put it under her pillow, thinking it was her nightdress. What worried the headmistress most (and bear in mind that she was in her fifties at this point) was that her mother had packed her case, the slip was new and HOW WOULD SHE EXPLAIN TO HER MOTHER?

1:15 pm

Vicuna

And had been to visit the ween.

1:15 pm

Atalante

OMG!

1:16 pm

Vicuna

Poor creature.

1:16 pm

Vicuna

Okay, so now for the headmistress and the hat?

1:16 pm

Haz1558

This same headmistress (think browbeaten etc) had bought a new hat and coat. However, the hat was just a shade away from absolutely matching the coat. The solution was to put the hat in the front window, turning it at intervals to make sure that it faded evenly.

1:16 pm

FMitch

it was hidden under the slip?

1:17 pm

Haz1558

She actually told this with great glee, thinking how clever they all were. It was so sad.

1:17 pm

Vicuna

A bold and risky plan.

1:17 pm

Vicuna

As long as she didn't hang the new slip in the front window, as well.

1:17 pm

FMitch

It was a good idea in theory but as it rained everyday for the next 2 months she was foiled

1:17 pm

Atalante

so clever! did she take equal delight in putting baked beans on a plate in neat rows?

1:18 pm

Haz1558

I don't think so. I think she nearly had the vapours at the thought of a man having handled her slip.

1:18 pm

Atalante

i bet it was washed 10 times before wearing

1:18 pm

FMitch

the apprentices couldn't have done any better

1:19 pm

Haz1558

I'm not sure how long the process took (for the fading of the hat) but it must have worked.

1:19 pm

Vicuna

But after it's faded just right, can she then wear it only on cloudy days, lest it fade too far?

1:19 pm

Haz1558

It was just terribly sad that this woman, who had a responsible job,was kept so much under the thumb by a tyrannical mother.

1:19 pm

Atalante

looool good point vi

1:20 pm

sassyB

he slip story reminds me of a cute story about a man who tells his wife he's going on a fishing trip, but she's a little suspicious of his recent behavior. When he gets home she asks if he had a good time and he says yes, but he hadn't caught any fish. He also tells her she had forgotten to pack his pajamas, and she smiles sweetly a him and says "oh, really, I did pack them, they were your tackle box

1:20 pm

Vicuna

Hard to have confidence in her headmistressing when she isn't even her own mistress.

1:21 pm

Atalante

if only her students knew ...

1:21 pm

Vicuna

Oh dear, sassy!

1:22 pm

Vicuna

(Poor cat has just made herself supremely comfortable on my lap, all unaware that in just 3 short minutes she will have to be evicted.)

1:22 pm

FMitch

I have a lap going free if you want to pass her over here Vi

1:22 pm

Atalante

awwwwww poor babe

1:23 pm

Haz1558

Are you going to leap up without warning or will you ease her off gently?

1:23 pm

Vicuna

*with a burst of superhuman strength, heaves the cat clear across the Atlantic* mrowwwr!

1:23 pm

Haz1558

Ahem, have you got a pet passport for said feline?

1:23 pm

Vicuna

Watch out for the claws, there, FM!

1:24 pm

Haz1558

Rules is rules.

1:24 pm

FMitch

Urff, .. aaand caught, ouch ouch, settle down now.

1:24 pm

FMitch

I say she is adept with the keyboard Vi

1:25 pm

Atalante

pet passports domt apply trans-atlantic

1:25 pm

Vicuna

Pet? Passport? It's a fur hat -- see, it's landed on FM's head.

1:25 pm

FMitch

Turns hat around so taill hangs down my back.

1:26 pm

Vicuna

You look just like Daniel Boone.

1:26 pm

Haz1558

FMitch Crockett.

1:26 pm

Haz1558

Watch out for fading, though.

1:26 pm

Haz1558

don't wear it in the sun too much.

1:26 pm

Haz1558

(Sun -sun?)

1:26 pm

Vicuna

Alas, must scamper to school to meet the darlings. A friend is coming home with them, too, so when I next log on, I apologize for shrieks of laughter in the background.

1:27 pm

Vicuna

Don't worry, FM, I don't mind if she comes back a cream-colored cat. I mean hat.

1:27 pm

Haz1558

We'll just turn down the volume, Vicuna.

1:28 pm

FMitch

LOL
TTFN Vi

1:28 pm

Vicuna

Byeeee!

1:28 pm

Haz1558

Bye Vi.

1:29 pm

Haz1558

in college my two best friends always knew the right thing to say and i did not, and i analogized that they were like fine tipped markers who stay in the lines, whereas i was like a fat marker that couldn't.

5:00 pm

bethn

5:01 pm

lil*monkey

tattletale!

5:01 pm

5:02 pm

hurshy

or rude, or just taken the wrong way, or whatever

9:49 pm

redturtlehead

Hi Jandy.

9:49 pm

Jandy

Hi red, you look good in your namesake!

9:49 pm

Lindrickway

oh really, i just imagine it will be warm in the US as it is south of here!!

9:49 pm

Jandy

Hi Lind and thanks... not a snowball's chance of finishing this one! Shouldn't have gone to the movies last night!

9:49 pm

redturtlehead

Well, it was at freezing last night in Santa Fe.

9:50 pm

redturtlehead

I mean at the freezing mark, not just cold.

9:50 pm

Cordelia

Lindrickway

9:50 pm

redturtlehead

It now gets warm during the day and very cold at night, but hey I have less than a week to live in the cold.

9:50 pm

Jandy

9:50 pm

Jandy

104 for me...

9:50 pm

Lindrickway

9:51 pm

Lindrickway

yeah but what time is it there jandy?

9:51 pm

Cordelia

thanks jandy and lindrick :)

9:51 pm

Jandy

Is it that close, red! You can leave that toilet for ever!

9:51 pm

redturtlehead

Oh Yes, I can not wait, toiet, cold drafty house, etc.

9:51 pm

Jandy

It is 10 to 2 in the afternoon, lind... but duty calls me, cause I have to go the doctors and exciting stuff like that!

9:52 pm

Jandy

Have you got your new accommodation sorted, red?

9:52 pm

Lindrickway

LOL jandy it is 10.50pm here and i have to get up at 6.30am ):

9:52 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, company does all that, all I do is show up and get the key. But I picked the apt this time, much nicer.

9:52 pm

Jandy

Groan.... lind.... don't envy you!

9:53 pm

Lindrickway

me neither!!

9:53 pm

Jandy

Oh that's great red... I would much prefer to do that myself.. what's important to people in their accommodation is so different from person to person.

9:53 pm

Jandy

Is it dark at that time of the morning, Lind, and is it warming up? We are just getting really crisp evenings and mornings this past week...

9:54 pm

redturtlehead

Well, since i have to move so far, its easier to let them do it, but I did chose the apartment since it across the street from the gym, I dont get to chose furniture or stuff like that, but its tempoirary.

9:54 pm

redturtlehead

Jandy how is your hemoglobin situation...?

9:54 pm

Jandy

Sounds good. And you can still have your dog, I take it?

9:55 pm

Lindrickway

we have changed our clocks jandy so it is a little light and we are still snow covered at the moment!!

9:55 pm

redturtlehead

yes, dog comes with me....

9:56 pm

Jandy

Going for a blood test this afternoon, red... don't think it's as good as it was, cause the inevitable week of the month came round ..... so hoping I'm still in triple figures at least!

9:57 pm

redturtlehead

hope its good Jandy.

9:57 pm

Lindrickway

do you have a problem with your blood count jandy?

9:57 pm

Jandy

Lind, I grew up in Liverpool, and one of the hardest things to explain to native Aussies is the short days and the effect of the darkness... we just don't get it here.

9:57 pm

Jandy

Thanks red! Me too. I'm really bored with the whole thing now but don't dare ignore it, which is my usual strategy! LOL!

9:58 pm

Lindrickway

oh cool, i grew up in harrogate which is only 75 mins from liverpool

9:58 pm

Jandy

Much better than it was, Lind, but turns out I've been (really) anaemic for months and months.. wondered what was the matter with me!

9:59 pm

Lindrickway

oh how odd! i had depleted levels of vitamin B12 which is a different form of anaemia!!

9:59 pm

Jandy

I came to Aus as a kid with my family when I was 12 in 1970 (big birthday fast approaching) but still have lots of fond memories. Though I count myself as an Aussie through and through!

9:59 pm

Lindrickway

had to go for B12 shots

10:00 pm

Lindrickway

i have only been in canada almost 5 years!!

10:00 pm

Jandy

My grandfather had pernicious anaemia, which I think is that kind, but mine is much less glamourous! I got mine the gory way!

10:00 pm

Lindrickway

oh me too!!

10:00 pm

lbdawger

gotta go, see you all tomorrow.

10:01 pm

Lindrickway

I am going in for surgery in May, so hopefully i will feel better after that

10:01 pm

Jandy

bye dawg...

10:01 pm

Lindrickway

bye dawg, sleep well!!

10:01 pm

Jandy

LOL, I'm booked in for the 22nd!!!!

10:01 pm

Jandy

of May, that is!!!!

10:01 pm

Lindrickway

jandy while my levels were low i contracted whooping cough, which i am still hacking away at

10:01 pm

Lindrickway

hysterectomy jandy?

10:02 pm

Jandy

Seems like everything knocks you around when your levels are down... every stupid thing sets me back

10:02 pm

Jandy

Yep!

10:02 pm

Lindrickway

me too!! fun eh

10:03 pm

Lindrickway

nevermind we can recover together in babble!!

10:03 pm

Jandy

I'm torn Lind, between the normal reluctance to have surgery and the party feeling of never having to think about it again!!!

10:04 pm

Lindrickway

i have no choice as my problem has caused other problems and they could become permenant if i don't get it sorted!!

10:04 pm

Jandy

Indeed we can! Because I travel so much for work (interstate most of the week, every week) I have been on sick leave for the past five weeks anyway, to give me a chance to recover BEFORE surgery, or they were threatening me with more transfusions...

10:04 pm

Jandy

I have a big advantage in that I work in surgical sales and for the past two years have worked in women's health.... so I'm a very educated consumer!

10:04 pm

Lindrickway

i have never had surgery before so it terrifies me frankly

10:05 pm

Lindrickway

i am working 50 hours a week until the friday before my surgery!!

10:05 pm

Lindrickway

i just wish i was male!!!

10:05 pm

Jandy

It's really routine surgery, Lind, one of the most often performed procedures with very low complication rates. Just make sure you have a good surgeon and anaesthetist...

10:06 pm

Jandy

Oh me too... though my prostate would probably just be starting to play up!

10:06 pm

Lindrickway

i have the best surgeon in the area jandy, i will have only one internal incission of about 1.5 inches, no external ones at all

10:07 pm

Jandy

My employers have been fantastic... I said I would go back to work last week, but they told me to stay home and get really well

10:07 pm

Lindrickway

i have a prolapse bladder and it is doing something to my liver at the moment and my uterus is the size of a 22 week foetus

10:08 pm

Jandy

Was going to ask... if it's laparoscopic, you will recover really, really quickly. I have to have an open...

10:08 pm

Lindrickway

it is great when you employers are understanding

10:08 pm

Lindrickway

but i have no incissions on the outside at all, no little ones for cameras, only internal

10:09 pm

Jandy

Yuk.... well dealt with now, Lind.. things like that just do not sort themselves out and only get more and more complex. And as you get older your recovery is slower... so doing it now makes perfect sense..

10:09 pm

Jandy

Oh, very intruiging, Lind... would like to know what the technical name of the procedure is...

10:09 pm

Lindrickway

yeah i will recover quicker, but cos of the corrective surgery i have to have the op is 3.5 hours long and i can't drive for 3 weeks and can't word for 6-8 weeks

10:10 pm

Lindrickway

erm, not sure, intra vaginal hysterectomy?

10:10 pm

Jandy

And that not lifting anything or straining or anything is VITAL to the success of prolapse surgery, so don't be tempted to push the boundaries!

10:10 pm

Lindrickway

*work

10:11 pm

Jandy

Well, I wish you sucess and a quick recovery! We can keep an eye on each other!

10:11 pm

Lindrickway

oh the only thing i will be lifting is this laptop onto my knee (as soon as is advisable) to play babble!!

10:11 pm

Lindrickway

yeah i hope yours goes well too

10:11 pm

Jandy

Yeah, LOL, sure you will be able to word! Your Babble rating will skyrocket!

10:11 pm

Lindrickway

have you had surgery before?

10:12 pm

Lindrickway

i never bother with ratings, i'm just here to have fun

10:12 pm

Lindrickway

are you on facebook jandy?

10:12 pm

Jandy

I had laparoscopic surgery for gallstones about two years ago... it was an absolute piece of cake. couldn't believe how well I did afterwards.

10:12 pm

Lindrickway

oh cool

10:13 pm

Jandy

And it was quite funny cause I knew all the nurses in the hospital, so I got my hand held, and the surgeon was holding up the boxes with our company's product in at the end of the bed as I went under, to prove they were using the right stuff on me!

10:13 pm

Jandy

I haven't got onto facebook, lind, but i should now I have more time.

10:14 pm

Lindrickway

well jot down my name now and when you join up you can find me

10:14 pm

Lindrickway

Linda Launchbury

10:15 pm

Jandy

And my only other advice from both a personal and technical perspective is to not be afraid of the pain killers and don't try and be a hero. You recover more quickly when your pain is well managed.

10:15 pm

Lindrickway

find me and send me an invite on facebook

10:15 pm

redturtlehead

That is funny Jandy. I need to focus on the grid I am distracted by Facebook and 43things and my blog today...

10:15 pm

Lindrickway

o

10:15 pm

Jandy

You agree about the pain killers, red?

10:15 pm

Lindrickway

i'll remember that jandy

10:15 pm

Jandy

Nurse Red, I should say?

10:16 pm

Jandy

Will do, Lind, my graphic designer son has just moved back into home for a few weeks (!) so he can give me the idiot's guide to facebook... another distraction, as red says!

10:16 pm

Lindrickway

yeah do

10:17 pm

Lindrickway

my son is doing computer science in university at the moment!!

10:17 pm

redturtlehead

Painkillers? I missed the thing to agree about, but sure why not.

10:17 pm

Lindrickway

how many kids do you have jandy?

10:18 pm

Lindrickway

not to be a hero after surgery!

10:18 pm

redturtlehead

I think I might give up on the grid, I have 48 left but I am tired.

10:18 pm

Jandy

I have two sons, Lind... the one back at home (they just broke up) is 26 this year and I have a son who is 28, married and just moved to Melbourne

10:18 pm

Jandy

I like your style, red... grin...

10:18 pm

redturtlehead

yes, everyone should use pain killers post surgery. As prescribed, not the haf dose. not some other idea that you have. This is what ends people up in the ER.

10:19 pm

Jandy

On the painkillers, that is, not the giving up!

10:19 pm

Lindrickway

i have 2 girls and a boy they are 25.22 & 18 and all moved out

10:19 pm

redturtlehead

Latey I dont care if I finish or not.

10:19 pm

Jandy

I thought it would be tragic, lind, but it just isn't!

10:19 pm

Jandy

Me neither, red.. enjoy the grids I finish, the grids I don't and the chat!

10:19 pm

Lindrickway

i still have 98 left red, i'm just enjoying the chat
