2:27 am

flosey

flosey

ardilla

2:44 am

westford

I'm sure I must know you as RI is so small that everyone knows everyone else ...do you get that too?

2:44 am

saintfranny

in cranston. i'm "From" indiana orig, but lived here for almost 9 yrs

2:44 am

westford

have 2 cousins there

2:45 am

saintfranny

you're up in maine right now? haven't managed to get up there yet for vacay, but want to one day! i imagine it's beautiful

2:45 am

saintfranny

cousins in cranston or IN?

2:45 am

westford

cranston

2:45 am

saintfranny

yep it's def a small state, in many many ways

2:46 am

westford

we're having our kitchen in RI completely renovated so we came up to the summer cottage while the work is being done

2:46 am

westford

only trouble it's not summer here yet lol

2:46 am

saintfranny

wow. yeah, i was just thinking that. we got spoiled with 80 degree weather last week and now i'm back to sweaters!

2:47 am

westford

never put those sweaters away

2:47 am

westford

at least we have heat

2:47 am

westford

some summer places don't

2:48 am

saintfranny

ha that's good. i'm actually not complaining as i HATE the hot humid months. i dread them

2:48 am

westford

at least they don't last too long

2:49 am

westford

we're heading back to RI after the 4th of July and then the renters take over

2:49 am

saintfranny

IMO they do! :) but, it could be worse. we have it pretty good here in RI - not too many 'mother nature' scenarios to go bad for us, unlike other parts of the country

2:50 am

saintfranny

so where did you live when you moved away from here?

2:50 am

westford

that's true but I can remember some pretty good hurricanes

2:50 am

westford

all over hubby was in the navy

2:51 am

westford

spent a lot of time in CA..

2:51 am

saintfranny

well, luckily i wasn't here for those. i had to brave tornados in indiana tho... what was your fave place to live? and least fave

2:51 am

saintfranny

we lived in San Fran for 2 years - i Love it there. want to move back one day

2:52 am

westford

no contest Coronado, CA favorite Beeville, TX least favorite although the people there were outstanding

2:52 am

westford

we were in Monterey too beautiful there

2:52 am

saintfranny

what did you like about coronado

2:52 am

saintfranny

ohhhh i agree. lovely

2:53 am

saintfranny

i just mapped coronado - water water water! and perfect weather i'm guessing!

2:53 am

westford

the small town atmosphere walked everywhere but just across the bridge from San Diego

2:54 am

saintfranny

my only experience with san diego was zipping down to the zoo one day. spent a summer in orange county

2:54 am

westford

we owned a house there but sold it when we moved back east couldn't buy a cardboard box there now

2:55 am

saintfranny

ohh i know. :( every 'good' place is sooo expensive now. it's insane

2:55 am

westford

we were just back there in October and nothing has changed

2:56 am

saintfranny

well i'm sure it's good for you to be back near family tho

2:56 am

westford

our kids were young when we lived in Coronado and it was always so safe

2:57 am

westford

one daughter lives north of SD she went back right after college

2:57 am

westford

so we still have our CA connection

2:58 am

saintfranny

oh well that's good. we still have a good friend in marin county, and planning a visit there next year. :) let me ask you a cat question - i see u have one boy and 2 girls. ever have peeing issues?

2:58 am

saintfranny

i have 4 cats, one is a boy. and we're having issues Galore

2:58 am

westford

no we don't and we're lucky our daughter had a male that had to mark everything even though he had been neutered

2:59 am

saintfranny

yes, well, we got billy when he was about 3 mos and he was fixed right away - he's 2 now. this has been going on for about a year plus, but one or more of the girls are doing it too. exhausting. what did your daughter do?

2:59 am

westford

is he youngest, oldest or in the middle?

3:00 am

westford

she gave him to us lol

3:00 am

westford

and he never did it again

3:00 am

westford

I think her house was too chaotic..she had so many animals and a big silly dog

3:00 am

saintfranny

youngest. one girl is 10, had her since a kitten in CA; one girl is about 8 now, had her almost 6 yrs; one girl i think is under 5, had her just over 2 yrs

3:01 am

westford

sounds like he's trying to assert himself in the female world

3:01 am

saintfranny

Ohhhhh my gosh! wow. i fear we have too many furries here too, and that's why they're doing it. but i can't imagine giving anyone up. we have 4 dogs too. : /

3:02 am

saintfranny

all rescues

3:02 am

westford

are they indoor or outdoor cats

3:02 am

saintfranny

only indoor. i don't believe in outdoor/i'd go crazy not knowing where they are at all times

3:03 am

westford

she had to moved where they wouldn't allow animals so we got the mother, father and son and then she moved in with us

3:03 am

westford

one of her cats that we have now is 18 and still going strong

3:04 am

saintfranny

ohhh wow! that's great. what do you feed her

3:05 am

westford

we feed her fancy feast gourmet chicken..the vet recommended something that was awful smelling and she wouldn't eat it so we said forget it

3:05 am

saintfranny

lol. a happy cat is a happy house

3:05 am

westford

she does have trouble with the dry food so I mix it with a little water and call it her 'bowl of cereal'

3:06 am

saintfranny

:)

3:06 am

westford

our other 2 were strays and she hates them

3:06 am

westford

she would like to be an only cat

3:08 am

saintfranny

ahh. we had just the one cat for about 5 yrs. i think she liked the first addition a Little.. and my two newest additions play/cuddle together really well, but the dynamics between the 4 of them are crazy. i think they'd each like to be the only. we're Def not getting any more!

3:09 am

westford

I have a whole slew of them if I could but the vet bills alone would put us in the poor house

3:09 am

Andree

my cat years ago, havent had one since died of kidney failure, the vet said due to dry food so the water is a great way to give it

3:10 am

saintfranny

awwww thats sad. hadn't heard that happening. i always add water to their Wet food, which they get every few days.

3:10 am

saintfranny

ahh yes, the vet bills. luckily, a childhood friend of my husband's is our vet, even so, it's put a serious dent in the budget.

3:11 am

westford

that is sad was your cat male or female andree?

3:11 am

westford

we use a vet in Rumford and board them there when we go away

3:12 am

Andree

not that sad really, i am not a cat person and she belonged to my daughter and she was old

3:12 am

westford

more fun when you get a kitten to start with

3:12 am

saintfranny

lol andree. i'm def the opposite - i like my pets - trouble they may be - more than most people

3:12 am

Andree

haven't had a cat since only dogs and don't have one of those at the moment

3:13 am

herinfernallady

HI. Going to add my 2 cents in cat fud with high acidic ph is good., You can get special dry food for cats with cystitis. Had to look it up to do since fur beast peed on floor this am

3:13 am

Andree

i cannot wait to get a dog again

3:13 am

westford

I miss our dogs

3:13 am

saintfranny

what kind do you want? or does it matter?

3:13 am

herinfernallady

HI

3:14 am

westford

hi herin think your kitty is just getting used to the new place?

3:14 am

Andree

i change my mind everytime i see a cute dog, lol

3:14 am

westford

our last was a sweet golden

3:14 am

herinfernallady

I am hopping so since the little beast peed on the tiles this morning

3:14 am

saintfranny

hi infernal. yes, i think you've advised me on my cats before. they're all on special food because of the boy cat - he had crystals, and this food clears it up, but since it's a recurring problem for him, easier to just keep them all on it

3:15 am

Andree

am renting, will buy a house[ and dog] when my business sells

3:15 am

westford

but we've had mutts too

3:15 am

herinfernallady

Nope wasnt me. I was doing research today as i was a tad concerned about kitty. She seems fine now

3:16 am

Andree

my last was a spaniel, when i left my husband 5 years ago he got the dog, lol

3:16 am

saintfranny

i'm a lover of mutts/believer of rescues, but i have to say, we have a schnauzer who is Personality Plus! b/c of her, i think we'll Always have at least one schnauzer

3:16 am

westford

we had a springer spaniel named Winston he was such a gentleman the kids would say

3:16 am

herinfernallady

Andree you are meant to keep the dog and ditch the husband as a trade off.

3:16 am

westford

lol herin

3:16 am

saintfranny

lol

3:17 am

herinfernallady

Its a known fact

3:17 am

Andree

schnauzer is on the list also any poodle cross, my favourite dog ever was a springer spaniel i had many years ago

3:17 am

westford

is he a miniature or full size?

3:18 am

Andree

si6/27 please

3:18 am

saintfranny

3:18 am

westford

I knew a couple who divorced and he got the Tupperware

3:18 am

westford

3:18 am

Marmar

3:20 am

herinfernallady

HI new people

3:20 am

Marmar

oh thanks Lynxxx for that si

3:20 am

herinfernallady

The strangest argument i heard in a split was how would take the pegs

3:21 am

Marmar

Hi everyone!

3:21 am

westford

things you hang clothes on?

3:21 am

herinfernallady

yes

3:21 am

westford

who won?

3:22 am

herinfernallady

me. I took them as that kind of agument was just stupid

3:22 am

westford

that's all you wanted?

3:23 am

saintfranny

LOL herin

3:23 am

herinfernallady

Ok i wasn't the ones arguing over them. I was living with a couple

3:23 am

westford

ah so you solved the problem

3:24 am

Marmar

Lady, I bet you're what my friend would call a "velvet hammer". (that's a mighty compliment!)

3:24 am

herinfernallady

yep. I took them it was so ridiculous. Marmar you are not the only one that has said that too me

3:25 am

Marmar

I could use a little more of that characteristic myself.

3:26 am

herinfernallady

I do tend to call a spade a spade

3:26 am

westford

so were they nice pegs? lol

3:27 am

herinfernallady

standard issue cheap ones. I think i still have some of them and that was about 10 years ago

3:29 am

herinfernallady

Did i make everyone go away//

3:30 am

westford

still here just putting words into the list

3:30 am

Andree

i'm still here, deep in grid want to finish early

3:30 am

Marmar

Lord no Lady, I just got some breakfast...

3:30 am

westford

and thinking what sillies some people are

3:30 am

herinfernallady

I am just going to poke them

3:31 am

Andree

we8/60 please

3:31 am

westford

you can use a peg herin

3:31 am

herinfernallady

lol

3:32 am

lynxxx

we8 sounds like the smallest one

3:32 am

westford

that's the most swamp you can get andree

3:32 am

Marmar

Andree, think of the smallest little tiny thing you can think of...

3:32 am

westford

no maybe it isn't a swamp more like a growth

3:32 am

Andree

thanks marmar

3:33 am

Andree

8 left

3:33 am

westford

the swamp word starts with an f

3:33 am

herinfernallady

what idiot buys a house that is not building checked before purchase?

3:33 am

westford

not me

3:33 am

Marmar

I have 89 left...and I'm feeling good about it, what does that say about my standards!?

3:33 am

lynxxx

3:33 am

westford

some houses are sold as is

3:34 am

saintfranny

lol me too mar!

3:34 am

westford

you just got here mar

3:34 am

Marmar

isn't that required??

3:34 am

herinfernallady

Sorry that is silly. Yarra rangers is termite infested so someone bitched to ACA about it instead of research

3:34 am

westford

lenders here won't give a mortgage unless the house is inspected

3:35 am

Marmar

well West, Marcus and I were on earlier and took a stab at it. Actually, for me, this grid has been generous so far.

3:35 am

herinfernallady

THat is a smart idea West

3:35 am

westford

it's not so bad as yesterday's

3:35 am

Andree

that seems reasonable, i am sure they don't here either

3:36 am

westford

and a termite inspection is high on the list

3:36 am

Marmar

I left dreams of "finishing" the grid long ago, but I still love it.

3:36 am

herinfernallady

I didn't even do yesterdays grid

3:37 am

Marmar

Yesterday's was mean.

3:37 am

herinfernallady

If i was spending a scat load on a house i would want it to the highest standard

3:38 am

Marmar

St. Franny, do you chat often? I don't think I ever met you before.

3:39 am

Andree

se7/32 please

3:39 am

herinfernallady

Franny

3:41 am

herinfernallady

Don't ahve it ANdree

3:41 am

G'd morning Babblers!!!! ***averts eyes from little yellow tiles***

OK why is it my heating is on 30 and im freezing?

5:42 am

sprite

hiya Lori

5:42 am

herinfernallady

HI Lori

5:43 am

sprite

either it is not working or you have some problem keeping your body temp up... like too little food, wrong food, too little excercise, too little energy

5:43 am

Scrabbler

Hi Lori P--I was thinking of you last night. My Yankee magazine always has ads for travel to Nova Scotia. Some of the pics are breathtaking.

5:44 am

NonoNanette

hi Lori

5:45 am

LoriP

The coastal drive, aside from the poor quality of the alleged pavement, is gorgeous Scrabbler.

5:45 am

Scrabbler

Haha, "zennia" is not an alternative spelling for zinnia, so don't try it.

5:45 am

bluemonkey

I love Novia Scotia, been 3 times to Halifax and had a ball

5:45 am

LoriP

How's the grid? ***still averting eyes from little yellow tiles***

5:45 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Lori, there were amazing hills and cliffs along the water.

5:46 am

Scrabbler

Maybe I will get to NS someday, and see all of the maritime provinces.

5:46 am

Scrabbler

I am finding the grid difficult.

5:46 am

LoriP

The Annapolis Valley, Cape Breton (worst roads in the world), the South Shore, and of course Halifax for variety, all beautiful.

5:47 am

pinkhatlil

hey lori and bluemonkey!

5:48 am

LoriP

Glad you enjoyed yourself blue, best way to see NS is to ignore travel brochures, and just drive secondary roads. Avoid the 101, and 103 highway, and meander along at your own pace.

5:48 am

sprite

HI kje

***bows in homage to Lickety, the creator of THE List! :-)*** G'd morning

6:45 am

licketySplitAUS

Here is the question :

6:45 am

herinfernallady

?

6:45 am

licketySplitAUS

N is the 5-digit number 8A65B in which A and B are digits, and N is divisible by 24. What is the smallest number N can be? Explain your answer in detail.

6:46 am

herinfernallady

huh

6:46 am

herinfernallady

huh

6:47 am

LoriP

Okay, that's math. This tiny brain does not process math........ :-)

6:47 am

herinfernallady

I failed basic math so don't look at me im am math disabled

6:47 am

faulds

sorry, math gives me hives

6:48 am

LoriP

LOL faulds. Yes, I too have an allergic reaction to math.

6:48 am

herinfernallady

N 6?

6:48 am

herinfernallady

sorry 4

6:49 am

herinfernallady

well you going to tell?

6:50 am

licketySplitAUS

45mins on it here. I know what the answer is - the internet told me - but I don't know how to GET to the answer

6:50 am

herinfernallady

what is the answer?

6:50 am

kje

pulling out piece of paper...

6:52 am

herinfernallady

oh tell

6:53 am

herinfernallady

can someone explain to me what is wrong with my cats brain?

6:56 am

herinfernallady

hello?>

6:59 am

carleekat

hi again

7:00 am

carleekat

cats are ...insane...but loveable

7:00 am

herinfernallady

starting to think its me

7:00 am

Vioxx

A must be as low as possible, the sum of the digits must be a factor of 3, and B must be even. Start with A = 0, and go up from there.

7:00 am

herinfernallady

WOW Viox

7:03 am

herinfernallady

25 left no list

7:04 am

licketySplitAUS

Vioxx - I worked it out

7:04 am

herinfernallady

tell

7:04 am

licketySplitAUS

You are right - but there is another trick to use - To be a multiple of 3 - all the numbers have to add up to a multiple of 3

7:05 am

licketySplitAUS

I'll post the solution so you can see it

7:05 am

herinfernallady

oh yer

7:06 am

Thank you! Good afternoon FMitch.

lexleeanne

**slaps haz and administers smelling salts**

8:45 am

Uniquity

I love the British/American spelling confusion...although I don't enjoy when people tell me I spell things wrong when I use the British way...schools in Canada teach American spellings for some reason and I always refused to do it that way.

8:46 am

Haz1558

Kind of ready with the slapping, lexie?

8:46 am

Haz1558

Round of applause for Uniquity, defender of spelling the proper way.

8:46 am

FMitch

Good girl Uni!

8:47 am

EvaNadine

it was always confusing growing up in the US in US schools with english parents...
none of us knew how to spell anything!

8:47 am

Uniquity

Well, I'm sure I spell some things American without noticing, but largely, I use British. Microsoft word HATES that.

8:48 am

lexleeanne

working at HS DUH!! Slap anyone in cyberspace so as not to do it actually

2:44 pm

evanonut

even if it means i have to live with the squirrels

2:46 pm

bethn

we got my father a squirrel flipper as a gift several years ago. he gets great enjpyment from watching the squirrels fly across the yard

2:47 pm

evanonut

i've seen the twirlers, but i never heard of the flippers?

2:49 pm

bethn

it is a bird feeder that is weight sensitive. it will support a birds weight but when a squirrel steps on it, it spins around and flips them off.... is that the same as the twirler? my family calls it the flipper

2:49 pm

evanonut

yeah, its called 'twirl a squirrel'

2:50 pm

bethn

my dad may have torqued up the mechanism a tad, the squirrels really get quite a boost 8)

2:52 pm

evanonut

we should induct him into GREST (get rid of evil squirrels today)

2:52 pm

bethn

i am sure he would be honored to accept the invitation. does he get to wear a funny hat?

2:53 pm

evanonut

yeah, but he'll have to make his own cause we don't have an official funny hat...maybe a pope hat with a squirrel tail attached?

2:55 pm

bethn

oooh, i like that, he will too, he's short so that mitre thingy will add inches, and the tail will add just a soupcon of elegance

2:55 pm

bethn

he's an ex-hunter so he has no problem with fur

2:56 pm

evanonut

i've no problem with the fur so long as its a squirrels

2:56 pm

evanonut

or one of the ground hogs they recruited

2:57 pm

bethn

THEY ARE FORMING UNIONS NOW???!!!???

2:58 pm

evanonut

no, they are plotting to take over the world, so far we know they've recruited chipmunks as foot men and the other day my car was attacked by a ground hog...i guess they're the muscle

2:58 pm

bethn

i see. big but dumb

2:59 pm

evanonut

yeah, basically

2:59 pm

bethn

we have a family of groundhogs that lives under our deck. we keep blocking their entrance, they keep unblocking it

2:59 pm

evanonut

the squirrels have their own military hierarchy, seargents, lieutenants, majors, generals

3:00 pm

evanonut

generally, if you want rid of a ground hog, you have to kill it

3:01 pm

AsGreen

hi again, I have about 25 mins to bang out a few....48 to go

3:01 pm

bethn

my husband has an ongoing argument with a particular squirrel it basically yells back at him when he tries to chase it out our garden

3:01 pm

wonderful kristin. My prayers go with you, may all go well and wonderful for you.

4:40 pm

kristin .. he looks such an angel ... you are so lucky.

4:40 pm

kristinc

thanks sprite, this year has been quite the improvement over the last couple! :). We appreciate your prayers.

4:41 pm

sprite

you were due a couple of blessings, weren't you ;)

4:41 pm

kristinc

He's a fantasic baby mo. Other than that he still prefers to nap in my arms, I don't think I would change a thing about him. I guess I should just get a bigger lap no?

4:42 pm

kristinc

thanks sprite...I would imagine so! :)

4:42 pm

sprite

in a little while you can let him lie beside you while you cradle just his head :)

4:42 pm

kristinc

sprite...what is the weather like for camping now? If you camped here in May, you would likely be a soggy mess.

4:43 pm

mo

you sound so happy ... that is good.

4:43 pm

kristinc

shh...don't tell him that sprite (he is actually in his crib today). He'd take me up on it! :)

4:43 pm

4:43 pm

sprite

*is not telling*

4:44 pm

kristinc

That's good. You're warm and dry at least.

4:44 pm

4:51 pm

Mom

4:51 pm

kristinc

Friend of mine who just turned 69 found the hospital bill when he was born in a MA hospital. The total for 13 days, phone calls, tests, delivery room etc. etc. came to a mere $136.50. No wonder people had more kids then

5:00 pm

kristinc

wow! no kidding inge. I pay more than that in co-pays alone in a month's time.

5:00 pm

shorty

wow inge thats incredible!!!!!!!!!

5:01 pm

KatieMcG

You know it never occured to me that you needed to pay to have a baby! God bless the NHS :-)

5:01 pm

mo

I was born free!!!!

5:01 pm

shoelessdwarf

i have to agree

5:01 pm

shoelessdwarf

ving the nhs

5:01 pm

CadFan

LOL - I'm having outpatient surgery in July that will cost more than $10,000!!

5:01 pm

shoelessdwarf

*loving the nhs

5:02 pm

kristinc

oh yes, it was $2,500 to have Zach last year and that is only because that is what my insurance caps at annually. The bill was over $35,000 for 2 days.

5:02 pm

inge

I had a ci** removed last week for a mere $420. Medicare pays most of it though

5:02 pm

mo

yes, we complain about the NHS, but we dontrealise how lucky we are!

5:03 pm

kristinc

I love that Inge, a "mere"

5:03 pm

KatieMcG

$35,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5:03 pm

kristinc

yikes cad!

5:03 pm

shoelessdwarf

wow

5:04 pm

mo

how can you afford to be ill?

5:04 pm

shoelessdwarf

i am sorry guys, but have just decided to never move to america.

5:06 pm

kristinc

We literally have to budget $2500 (it would be 6,000 for the whole family) each year and just a assume we will reach what they call, our "out of pocket" maximum. Once we reach that, we don't get billed anymore except a co-pay for each visit. It is really tricky for us to have that much cash each year to pay upfront. We feel like we are treading water a lot.

5:07 pm

kristinc

Yes shoeless, my brother lives in Denmark. He is very happy w/ the medical care (and costs) there.

5:08 pm

mo

that must be a big worry kristin.

5:08 pm

inge

On that happy note I will start supper: Weisswurst, baked potato and steamed vegetable. *poof*

5:09 pm

kristinc

It is a bit mo. Thankfully, we make enough that if we live carefully and budget, we do okay. There are others who are not so lucky and it is them I worry about more.

5:09 pm

mo

bye inge .. enjoy.

5:09 pm

CadFan

I should say $10,000 cost - my portion will not be that much. I will be out of pocket a bit over $1000 for it.

5:09 pm

kristinc

Have fun inge! Sorry to drag everyone down. Can you tell I just paid my taxes and have all these numbers still fresh?

5:10 pm

CadFan

I am waiting until July so that I can put $$ into flexible spending - then use that to pay when I get billed. That way - it comes out of my paycheck tax free and is spread over 12 months!

5:10 pm

kristinc

That is really smart Cad.

5:11 pm

KatieMcG

advice time - our cats have now brought two fish out of next door's pond - how do we broach the subject with them?

5:11 pm

CadFan

No choice really - can't afford it otherwise! We got killed o ntaxes this year - did you know you don't get a credit for a child once they turn 17 - regardless of whether or not they are still i nHigh School!

5:11 pm

CadFan

And - the economic stimulus... no credit for a 17 year old - but we do still get credit for the 13 year old....

5:11 pm

kristinc

really? I thought my parents claimed me even through my college years?

5:12 pm

CadFan

You can claim them - and get a standard deduction - but there is a credit in additio to that which you cannot take once they turn 17.

5:12 pm

kristinc

ooh..Katie. I have no idea other than to bake a really tasty cake as a peace offering.

5:12 pm

CadFan

Katie - you men the neighbor hasn't noticed?!?!?

5:13 pm

mo

are they plain goldfish or koi carps?

5:13 pm

kristinc

aha...you also know the stimulus checks are simply a rebate on what you might get back next year. Since we're self-employed, we just have to keep ours in saving (or we'll just owe more next time).

5:14 pm

CadFan

Yes I know... we are simply paying debt with ours.

5:14 pm

kristinc

can anyone help with the si 6/27 please?

5:14 pm

KatieMcG

Thank goodness they are normal goldfish, the neighbours haven't noticed yet but at the rate they are fishing it won't be long!

5:14 pm

CadFan

si 6/27 - like the crabby guy on American Idol (ends with sometimes idol)

5:14 pm

kristinc

Cad...I think it is interesting that they don't really advertise the checks that way however. I feel like there are a lot of folks who won't know that and thus spend money they don't really have.

5:15 pm

kristinc

aha, thanks

5:15 pm

mo

I shouldt worry ... they might think that the herons have had them.

5:15 pm

CadFan

I mean ends with sometimes vowel.....

5:15 pm

CadFan

Oh I guarantee most people have NO idea that is how it's working!

5:15 pm

milly24

maybe you could them you have seen you cat take an interest in their pond and suggest they may be wise to put over a mesh

5:16 pm

mo

and if its a big pond I am sure they wont miss them.

5:16 pm

CadFan

Time to head for home - might log on from there for my last 37.... cheers everyone!

5:16 pm

KatieMcG

By the time we get back from honeymoon their pond could be empty! Rubarb caught her first bird yesterday so Mari may have a massacre on her hands :-(

5:16 pm

kristinc

cheers Cad, see you later!

5:17 pm

KatieMcG

Bye cad :-)

5:17 pm

kristinc

maybe you just need to secretly stock the pond Katie (and have someone do it for you while you are gone! :))

5:17 pm

mo

I'm afraid cats will be cats, there is not much you can do .... dont let it spoil your honeymoon.

5:17 pm

KatieMcG

That might be a good idea Kristin :-)

5:18 pm

KatieMcG

the one doing the fishing and bird catching is the smallest and the one who looks the most innocent, you can never tell which one will turn out the be the hunter.

5:19 pm

KatieMcG

We have a policy of letting them out all the time with a cat flap, as you say mo cats will be cats

5:19 pm

NatashaW

Hey y'all - speaking of birds - can anyone explain why the plural form of a certain Hawaaian goose isn't allowed on here? is it like deer?

5:19 pm

NatashaW

Our cat by the way is an inveterate hunter. No rats anywhere for at least a mile

5:21 pm

KatieMcG

Lol, we have had a couple of rats but that was because Rhubarb pulled an admirer who delivered them outside the catflap for her as presents.

5:22 pm

mo

lol.

5:22 pm

mo

hope they were dead!!!

5:23 pm

NatashaW

If a cat catches a rat, they're usually... ummm... more than dead. At least ours are. Headless...

5:23 pm

KatieMcG

Thankfully yes, however H2B did bring one in to show me the size of the 'mouse', he did understand after much screaming that mice don't grow that si**.

5:24 pm

mo

aren't men wonderful!!!!

5:24 pm

NatashaW

Yes, they think they're bringing you a present!!

5:24 pm

kristinc

okay, my last word in the it7. I can see what is starts with obviously but I can't monkey it for the life of me. Any help would be lovely.

5:24 pm

KatieMcG

Noooooooo, a headless rat would be awful to find in your kitchen, you have my sympathy :-)

5:24 pm

JBV

hi, min - so no one remembers Rootie Kazootie - well before your time, I guess - how about Winky Dink? We ordered a plastic screen that adhered to the TV screen and you could write on it with crayons as Winky Dink told you to circle this, mark an X on that

8:20 pm

Minveryork

Great icon Aussieme! You didn't have to, but thanks!

8:20 pm

Uneaixoise

sometimes the chat goes too fast for me , I was commenting on fav child hood books , and did not realize the subject matter had changed :(

8:37 pm

JBV

inge, I remember your story about the cigarette butts - that was very interesting to me

8:37 pm

dcseain

i met some people the other day who didn't know about candy cigarretts.

8:37 pm

JBV

was that in the 40's - after the war or during?

8:37 pm

inge

well, we were receiving UNRRA packages and free meals from the municipality, but never felt poor or deprived

8:37 pm

dcseain

chat's like that sometimes, mamawa :)

8:38 pm

Minveryork

I remember candy cigarettes.Do they still sell them?I hope not. I never did like them. They are a bad idea!

8:38 pm

Uneaixoise

yes, you can still get them

8:38 pm

pam

I think I liked them, min....

8:38 pm

MaMaWA

Yes for sure dc , I remember candy cigs

8:38 pm

dcseain

no, minver, they're not marketed any more to my knowledge. They came in boxes that looked like Lucky Strikes, at least around here.

8:38 pm

dcseain

i liked them.

8:38 pm

MaMaWA

and if you blew out they puffed

8:39 pm

Uneaixoise

you can get them online

8:39 pm

inge

Well, things got real bad 1945-47. Black market was the only way to get anything.

8:39 pm

dcseain

neither me nor my sister smokes, despite mom smoking.

8:39 pm

MaMaWA

little white sticks with pink/red ends

8:39 pm

JBV

you could also send a kid to the corner story to buy real cigarettes, as my father used to do - nobody raised an eyebrow

8:39 pm

dcseain

that was true when i was young too, mom would send me to the store.

8:40 pm

dcseain

of cours this state only outlawed smoking in all schools, including primary, in 1988

8:40 pm

Lindrickway

oh MaMa the english ones weren't so posh, they didn't puff or anything!!

8:40 pm

MaMaWA

Exactly, before the gov took over all of yor business including rasing your kids

8:40 pm

pam

me, too.. Raleighs... or whatever was the green book...

8:40 pm

Uneaixoise

here's one of several sites where you can still get them: http://tinyurl.com/ytuafm

8:40 pm

JBV

that was *store* of course

8:40 pm

Minveryork

Yes, those are the ones I remember. I am sure they tasted good, but I don't like the idea behind them. It promotes smoking which I hate! They should stick to candy necklaces.Anyone remember candy necklaces?

8:40 pm

pam

I am the only one that didn't ever smoke in much of my family... makes me sick, literally

8:40 pm

Uneaixoise

mine didn't puff . . . just pretend

8:41 pm

MaMaWA

Lind it was just the powder/chalkiness of them if you blew

8:41 pm

Lindrickway

you can still get the candy necklaces in the UK min!!

8:41 pm

MaMaWA

Not real

8:41 pm

dcseain

candy necklaces are sold here still, too.

Lindrickway

oh ok MaMa, you couldn't even do that with english ones!!

8:41 pm

dcseain

yes inge :)

8:41 pm

Lindrickway

yes inge you can still get those in the UK

8:41 pm

dcseain

our candy cigs puffed sugar, too.

8:42 pm

JBV

funny how people can go either way - some children of smokers pick up the habit, in my family my father's smoking immunized all 3 of us children never to pick up a cigarette at all - none of us ever smoked

Uneaixoise

BR! howdy!

8:45 pm

Lindrickway

so it is in some and not others then MaMa?

8:46 pm

MaMaWA

dc? 4 states

8:46 pm

o-o

howDy

8:46 pm

Minveryork

we 8/60 sounds like the most of one of the question words JBV.

8:46 pm

dcseain

tobacco is still very cheap here in VA comparatively, almost half what they charge in DC and MD

8:46 pm

dcseain

yes, dc, md, va, wv

8:46 pm

pam

don't see it, babbler and hursh

8:46 pm

hurshy

oh sorry, i missed it!

8:46 pm

Lindrickway

her in Ontario no one can smoke in any public building or pub and they are trying to ban it from the streets too

8:46 pm

dcseain

we count dc as a state

8:46 pm

JBV

thanks, min, i wasn't asking tho, just answering hursh's question

8:46 pm

Lindrickway

*here

8:47 pm

dcseain

i find the streets excessive

8:47 pm

Lindrickway

very hard to police too!!

8:47 pm

MaMaWA

Yes I spent the day in a large hospita;l with my Mom and brother, he still smokes and we had to walk in the streets "off the premises"

8:47 pm

dcseain

our public drinking law here in VA is rareyl enforced - it's illegal to drink alcohol w/in view of a public road

8:48 pm

pam

me, too, dcs, except that when I walk by a place where someone smoked recently, I choke up. I am highty sensitive and stop breathing if I am around too much...

8:48 pm

dcseain

true of hospital zones here, too mam wa

8:48 pm

dcseain

yes, pam, i know several who are like that. and as smoking is less allowed, i find myself more sensitive

8:49 pm

Uneaixoise

same here, dc, and I used to smoke

8:49 pm

JBV

babrab - you said swampy, but I think that we word means something else - related to a skin condition

8:49 pm

Lindrickway

it is illegal here to carry an already opened bottle of alcohol in the street or car or public transport!

8:49 pm

o-o

I gave a clue and not a definition

8:49 pm

dcseain

that's silly, from my POV, lindrick, though i see the reasoning behind it.

8:50 pm

MaMaWA

Yes the signs used to say no smoking and everyone who smoked went outside but now , they cant even do it there

8:50 pm

JBV

oh? must have misread it, then

8:50 pm

Lindrickway

i found it very strange coming from the UK to here and all the different laws dc

8:50 pm

dcseain

i remember my mother being tiest in, oh 78 or 79, when they outlawed smoking in service lines at places that did not sell food. after that, drug stores started carrying food items too.

8:51 pm

dcseain

different from britain, or different from each other here, lindrick, or both?

8:51 pm

dcseain

testy, not tiest

8:51 pm

hurshy

why places that did NOT sell food? that seems weird

8:51 pm

inge

gee, dc, I thought we had a new word thre

8:51 pm

Lindrickway

in the uk you can drink in the street if you wish to dc here you can't even carry it!!

8:52 pm

dcseain

banks, drugstores, clothing stores, but not grocery stores, butchers and the like. don't know why it was that way, but it was.

8:52 pm

dcseain

lol inge :D

8:52 pm

Lindrickway

also different age limits too

8:52 pm

MaMaWA

As far as i know the smoke bans are still state and locally mandated,but in us 21 is legal drinking age

8:53 pm

dcseain

it used to vary more here, lindrick. used te be here in VA no lower limit on age of purchase of beer and wine, but could not consume legally below 18. liquor was 18 then too.

8:53 pm

Lindrickway

it is 19 in Ontario and 18 in the UK mama

8:53 pm

hurshy

the grid doesn't know about sprite :(

8:53 pm

dcseain

21 onyl because fed highway funds are tied to that. :/

9:05 pm

hurshy

anyone know why roller skating never hurts my feet, but ice skating always does (my arches, not my ankles)?

9:05 pm

dan2bit

I had not for decades, but I am taking adult lessons, determined to learn to skate better

9:06 pm

MaMaWA

Because your feet/arches are not on a broad surface

9:06 pm

JBV

hursh, maybe it's because on roller skates your feet are flat and on ice skates you have to grip to stay balanced?

9:06 pm

dcseain

several people i know are taking adult ice skating lately. interesting.

9:07 pm

dcseain

lacing the skates enough matters too, hurshy

9:07 pm

Lindrickway

I love ice skating

9:07 pm

MaMaWA

you distribute your weight differently

9:07 pm

hurshy

what about rollerblades? they didn't hurt either...

9:08 pm

Lindrickway

i wear thick socks with my ice skates hurshy, that might help!

9:08 pm

dan2bit

good fitting skates, tightly laced, and not scrunching toes (which I do unconsciously a lot)

9:08 pm

MaMaWA

same concept, rollers are broader, and it depends on you r bindings and boots

9:09 pm

JBV

yes, scrunching toes s- that's what I was trying to say, you said it better dan

9:09 pm

dcseain
