1:18 am

sprite

I am not so recognisable today, Hugs. I thought I might need to give a good example with the icon themes...

1:19 am

Hugabugs

I see that.... I just get so used to seeing certain icons for certain people

1:19 am

VolleymomDee

ty very much... found them... now starting on k's

1:20 am

VolleymomDee

the only reason I stopped changing icons was sometimes the game wouldn't load properly on my ancient computer... this icon doesn't seem to inhibit loading, so I have just been admiring all of yours!

1:20 am

nDanLia

a 32 year old gymnast; a 40+ swimmer; good to see its not all teenagers

1:20 am

Hugabugs

In all the time I've been here, I think that's the 3rd icon I've seen you with

1:20 am

sprite

yes, that is the initial goal of icons, I'd say. To be recognisable by something you like or think goes with you. But with my new job I may be expected to do something too, lol.

1:21 am

VolleymomDee

what new job sprite?

1:21 am

sprite

True, Hugs. Though I have adapted my devil's heart a couple of times to a theme.

1:21 am

VolleymomDee

sorry if I missed a previous announcement

1:22 am

sprite

Queen of Themes, Dee. I took over from Babbler.

1:22 am

nDanLia

isn't it CEO of ICONS

1:22 am

Hugabugs

my icon fits your name quite well

1:22 am

sprite

oh yes, Hugs, it does. I have always loved yours.

1:23 am

VolleymomDee

very cool sprite

1:23 am

sprite

jilli and Babbler said Queen, nDan, but I don't feel I have to be royalty, so CEO will do fine, if you prefer.

1:23 am

Hugabugs

it took me forever to find just what I was looking for. In another game, my name is Sprite Lee

1:23 am

VolleymomDee

congrats, I'll bet you will be great at it

1:24 am

sprite

aw, that is close, Hugs :D But I love the name Hugabugs as well.

1:24 am

Hugabugs

I've had that nick since I've come online.

1:24 am

sprite

thanks Dee, Babbler did great all this time, I can only hope to keep up the good work. I promise I will pester you all about finding good ones :D

1:24 am

Hugabugs

It's a funny story

1:26 am

Hugabugs

1:26 am

Hugabugs

1:35 am

PAV3

and don't forget my poopies..HRH Princess Precious and HRH Joey Tribiani...that's cuz in my mind I am HH Prince Peter and they're my kids, not that human children aren't perfectly good little angels, but not so much these days...

1:35 am

jillibus

1:35 am

rururocks

so in sprite's case it is from the PB

1:35 am

sprite

1:41 am

sprite

roflol chakram, great image!

1:41 am

PAV3

yeah, I just had to kick a dog out of the communal pool...it's owners were to busy splashing around to care, nevermind the rules, they gave in when I told them it'll cost them $100 penalty..common sense isn't acquired here in AZ it seems...

1:42 am

chakramspice

3:22 am

elder

OH Sprite ::(( sorry to hear you were feeling so down yesterday.....I wish for you a better day ... Me.. ok, back very sore.. You take care my babble friend... ** hugs ** ..

3:23 am

sprite

be careful with that back, elder! You only have one... be gentle with yourself.
And yes, yesterday was bad. But it only lasted one day, which is improvement from the pa4. Am learning :)

3:23 am

herinfernallady

3:26 am

elder

Good night Jilli.. sleepwell..:)

3:28 am

sprite

lol elder, for what! See Sep 13, would that suffice?

3:29 am

elder

Sprite, sorry have I said something wrong :) Sept 13th//..

3:29 am

sprite

or just the Netherlands, that would be fun too. I'd feel embarrassed by a day for me, lol.

3:30 am

sprite

lollll no, nothing wrong, elder. Did you see the list of themes in my profile? Sep 13 is Thank You Babble Friends For Borrowing Shoulders Day (GroovyKiwi).
And it is my wedding anniversary as well.

3:31 am

elder

Ah, Sprite, just caught up with your list on your profile.. yes I see... ignore my earlier suggestions:) LOL

3:32 am

elder

I am only working on two brain cells this morning ;; so apologies to everyone now and for the rest of the day ::))

3:32 am

sprite

also one I think will be fun is the Cliche that always gets associated with your country Day. Like wooden shoes for the Netherlands.

3:33 am

sprite

that is going to be Sep 27

3:33 am

sprite

reminds me of a joke my son just told. He said: do you know why women have one braincell more than a cow?

3:33 am

herinfernallady

I don't think there is enough hours in the day to do a National Cliche Day for Aus

3:33 am

elder

Sprite... yes, i was going to say there is more to Netherlands than clogs and windmills..

3:34 am

sprite

But then there is Roo's bouncing down the street, corked hats and saying Crickey every second word

3:37 am

4:23 am

MonkeyGames

Hi there! Back for a few...

4:24 am

MonkeyGames

Phantoms: daikon, rakish

4:24 am

elder

Hello Monkey..

4:25 am

elder

Monkey.. sorry did not see you earlier , I had my head in the grid ..

4:26 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, I was on hours ago. I didn't see you here then. Just got back from dropping Walter off at daycare and taking the dog for her tun; now must rest my back.

4:27 am

elder

I was not in hrs ago... late up.. bad back.. Sorry to hear your back is still hurting. How is your son ? did you get the blood test back.?

4:29 am

MonkeyGames

We will hear the final result today, I hope. He is on the improve. Still not fully recovered, still has the sore throiat, still pale and tired... but much more hiself and getting a bit better daily. Our own doctor is back from vacation so I'll be calling him in a couple of hours for the test results; he has a phone-in hour when you can talk to him directly. Then I'll take Walter in tomorrow.

4:29 am

MonkeyGames

Sorry to hear about YOUR back! Hang in there!

4:32 am

elder

Well. its good to hear that he is able to go to daycare.. albeit he is still lethargic.. and you can discuss in more depth your concerns with own doctor that will help.

4:33 am

MonkeyGames

Yes it will. The other doctor said he can do daycare anytime he's up to it, and he likes it there and they're great people, so I took him in, but I'll be picking hm up early. And I really hope that test comes back positive-- I don't want a big mystery. But either way he's getting better!

4:34 am

elder

Which has to be a good sign for your son.My back is historical .... I have episodes when its really awful, then it eases with meds.... Thanks for your good

4:34 am

elder

'wishes'

4:35 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, I feel better about it all now; big weight off. Is there a specific cause for your back? A friend of mine has had a trick lower back since a car accident. Mine is just a slight instability; this sort of thing tends to happen every several years. But this is a bad one.... and all I did was bend down to put soap in the dishwasher! Well, that and carry a small boy around on my shoulders for hours every day... hmmm...

4:39 am

elder

years ago whilst driving I stopped at roundabout car behind did not, ran straight into me.. no major pain then, but the consultants think the later years back problem may be linked to that accident ... MRI's ongoing etc etc ..Sounds like you have trapped a nerve, or pulled one of your discs..physio should be able to help you.

4:40 am

elder

and carrying child on hips does not help.. :) but we have all done that:)

4:41 am

elder

Or carrying child on shoulders :)

4:42 am

MonkeyGames

My insurance doesn't cover physio, sadly. Yeah, I'm sure I have trapped a nerve. Once the swelling goes down it should sort itself out. Oh, I do plenty of hip carrying too, just shoulders for longer distances, like teh 40 minute walk to the doctor: the cargo trike's broken again, so walking and the bus for everything.

4:42 am

MonkeyGames

Good luck with your back!

4:43 am

elder

and with your back:::) ongoing pain drags you down..

4:44 am

MonkeyGames

Well yes, but especially when it is one's child's, so even with the back I feel better now that HE feels better!

4:44 am

MonkeyGames

I've also had my share of long-term injuries so I'm kind of used to it...

4:45 am

elder

yes,, the worry begins to lessen when they are recovering from what ever ailment they had...

4:46 am

MonkeyGames

Just hope we do find out what this has been! But as long as he gets better I won't be dragging himin for test after test just so I can call it something. Let's just hope we get a positive on the glandular fever test he's already had.

4:47 am

elder

I get used to the long term dull aches and pains, similar to you, its when the pain exceeds your normal limits ...

4:47 am

MonkeyGames

True, too true.

4:48 am

elder

I wish for you and your little one a positive result, in that, it is nothing serious..

4:48 am

MonkeyGames

My chat snagged up and when I reloaded the page it left letters out... did it twice more and it keeps leaving different letters out... new Babble twost?

4:49 am

MonkeyGames

Thank you! I guess if it's getting better we must have already seen the worst an dit can't be too serious...

4:49 am

elder

Umm... no problems here....

4:49 am

MonkeyGames

Sorry for all my typos today!

4:49 am

MonkeyGames

I meant, maybe this would be an interesting new way to play... random letter removals...

4:49 am

mrpresident

hello everyone :)

4:50 am

MonkeyGames

Hi Mr. P!!!

4:50 am

elder

Its ok , some days my typing sadly, is all over the place..

4:50 am

mrpresident

hi monkey :))

4:50 am

mrpresident

hi elder :))

4:50 am

elder

hello Mr P...still pushing forward.. :)

4:52 am

MonkeyGames

Now missing three OTHER letters... 'scuse me, going to try reloading my browser altogether.

4:53 am

MonkeyGames

That did it!

4:54 am

elder

Monkey.. good , so frustrating when it does not work effectively.

4:55 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah, but this is an old and crappy machine so I don't let it get to me! My new machine will be finished soon.

4:55 am

elder

:)

4:57 am

MonkeyGames

Oh look, an 8!

4:59 am

elder

goodness... where ??

4:59 am

MonkeyGames

It is of course an re... re+ ad5 for the 7, present tense for 8

5:00 am

elder

it had to be an re; :)

5:00 am

elder

thanks for that .. got it ..

5:01 am

MonkeyGames

Well it just WOULD be, wouldn't it? Sigh.

5:01 am

elder

Mr P... are you ok ish.. today?.

5:02 am

elder

Monkey where are you from.. i expect you have answered this before in previous babble chats, but I have missed it.

5:03 am

MonkeyGames

From is California, but I'm a Dutch citzen now; emmigrated 15 years ago. I'm in Haarlem, the Netherlands.

5:05 am

elder

Emigrated from USA to Netherlands, interesting, did you move re; job or relationship. ..

5:06 am

MonkeyGames

Fed up with US politics, education system, and the like. We forsaw it would just get worse, and lo and behold...

5:08 am

elder

Only yesterday, talking with my mother, re; the state of the world, politics, etc.. and we both agreed Netherlands was one of our top countries for a better way of living, good manners etc etc

5:08 am

MonkeyGames

Awww, shucks. The current regime has to go though!

5:10 am

elder

Did you consider any other European countries before settling on the Netherlands's ..

5:10 am

MonkeyGames

I am SOOO stalled out at 69 words! Don't suppose Lickety was able to solve the Google server issues that fast? Guess I should go get the stats at Anonymous.

5:10 am

elder

Oh does it why?

5:10 am

MonkeyGames

We did read about a great number of countries for a year.

5:11 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, our current regime is all about belt tightening and cutvbacks to the health system and bigger classrooms and the like, and supports US international policy. The list goes on!

5:11 am

elder

I asked earlier and Lickety is there.. what a relief to many, that includes me ::)

5:11 am

MonkeyGames

Oh wow! That's great. I'll just get pasting!

5:11 am

elder

Sadly, in some areas of Britain, it would not be a good place for any to move too.

5:12 am

MonkeyGames

So I've heard. That's true everywhere, though.

5:13 am

elder

Trying to reduce the recession that is happening in Europe ... and of course the links with the USA impacts on us all.for good or for bad.

5:14 am

elder

Monkey do you return to USA for holidays and to visits family.

5:14 am

MonkeyGames

It's true. But for example it is illegal to test US beef herds for BSE... just one of the resons US beef is genreally banned internationally.

5:15 am

MonkeyGames

Every now and then we manage to get back. My aunt just covered us to fly out to bring Walter to his great-grandfather; it was a good two weeks in Berkeley!

5:15 am

elder

yes.. crazy, and given how much beef is eaten in the USA....

5:16 am

MonkeyGames

I say it's probably the big pharmaceutical companies getting up to shenanigans again.

5:16 am

elder

Good for your aunt, what a generous offer, I expect he was showered with affection.. bless.

5:17 am

MonkeyGames

Oh yes. And I miss my grandfather terribly so it was good to see him. He's 91. He and my grandmother brought me up, so they're "really" my parents.

5:17 am

MonkeyGames

BRB

5:18 am

elder

How lovely for you.. and for Walter to meet these caring family adults..

5:18 am

elder

Well I must try to get further than 118 words, diving into the grid ...

6:24 am

pinkhatlil

she is well annie, we have gone back to nappies as she kept standing next to the toilet and wetting herself, and because i dont want a fear of the toilet to set in, i thought it would be best to put the nappy straight back on

( I don't use firefox )

6:25 am

I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I have to go.

We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.

Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.

Light takes the Tree; but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.

Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me, so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.

This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.

Since discovering this game,I have had to re7/36 my life style. I'm just absolutely ho4/9ed! I've cleared a space off the desk to make an ar 4/4 for my finished word lists.I've made an oa 4/5 to complete at least 3 grids in a week.It is very ra4/4 for me to go one day without babble.I don't even re 4/5 as much as I used to because of babble. If you came here I wouldn't be a good ho 4/5. You'd just be ignored as I babble. My hubby has to ad5/14 to me babbling so much.I get in trouble with my babble addiction.Hubby will say "how da4/5 you babble instead of paying attention to me! I say to him "Oh for Pete's sa4/8, get over yourself!I have resorted to babbling in the da 4/9 so my hubby can't see. da 4/5 it! I want to babble when I want to babble!I have very a good re6/18 to babble though.I work hard enough to ea 4/4 my free babble time! Ok now I need to go get some fo4/8. I will be right back.

2:27 pm

Minveryork

I never understood why pro babblers had no icons.

2:28 pm

ylleria

just laziness in my case, i think ;)

2:28 pm

JBV

hi, coming back to see ylleria's photo - very bold and beautiful, ylleria. Your hairdresser deserves an extra tip!

2:28 pm

Minveryork

What is your natural hair color ylleria? If I dyed mine red, well that would be a scary sight to see!Red does not go with darker skin or at least not my skin tone.

2:29 pm

ylleria

she is a star of a woman. and the only hairdresser i've ever felt comfortable enough with to let her do whatever she wanted to my hair

2:29 pm

ylleria

my natural hair colour's a sort of light, mousy brown, that starts to go a little blonde in the sun

2:30 pm

ylleria

i'm scottish and therefore incrediblt pale by nature. we fear the sun. ;)

2:31 pm

Minveryork

Now you have an icon & you don't have to change it.

2:31 pm

JBV

I had highlights done for the very first time about a year ago - when I showed up at work I kept hearing that I looked "ten years younger" - went back to the salon the next day and gave Candy a gift! asked her what it would take to make me look 20 years younger :))

2:32 pm

Minveryork

I think it is nice to be able to put a face with a name.

2:33 pm

ylleria

lol - that's really nice. when i went to my hairdresser a couple of months back, i got ID'd buying a bittle of wine just after i left, which made me laugh an awful lot - and the two girls behind me in the queue, who work at my hairdressers :)

3:26 pm

pugmama763

hi une!

3:26 pm

Uneaixoise

howdy, pug!

3:27 pm

skheiny

hey pug! how's the family? haven't seem much of stid...but then again I am on at "uneven" times

3:27 pm

pugmama763

stiddy was here earlier dear

3:27 pm

pugmama763

Poor Aussie is rather sad...

3:28 pm

skheiny

stid back to school yet? anxious? happy/not so looking forward?

3:28 pm

Uneaixoise

yep, she's in school

3:29 pm

pugmama763

I believe so...but my brain is like teflon,nothing sticks!

3:29 pm

Uneaixoise

she's a very busy lady!

3:29 pm

lil*monkey

i'm sick of these shows about obese people who are willing to try anything to lose weight EXCEPT stop eating

3:30 pm

skheiny

hahaha pugs! know how that is...it's 12:30 am here...I'm "cooked"/long day...just NEEDED to babble for awhile...

3:30 pm

pugmama763

there are no quick fixes unfortunately

3:31 pm

skheiny

grey goose and babble...that's my quick fix pug!!! LOL

3:31 pm

pugmama763

Babble mon amie Babble on!!!

3:31 pm

skheiny

:D right on!

3:32 pm

lil*monkey

i just got back from a trip to France, during my 8 days there, I saw 4 or 5 obese people

3:32 pm

lil*monkey

something is wrong with our society to have so many obese people

3:32 pm

pugmama763

ALOT OF THE TROUBLE IN THE us IS THE OVER PROCESSING OF OUR FOODS

3:33 pm

Uneaixoise

how was your trip, monkey? where did you go?

3:33 pm

pugmama763

sorry don't know what happened with caps

3:33 pm

lil*monkey

i think that's part of it, pug... i noticed in France that when you order a meal in a restaurant or cafe, the portion is small compared to U.S . standards... no one there seems to overeat

3:34 pm

lil*monkey

Une, I went to Paris and to a village in the country called Nogent le Rotrou

3:34 pm

Uneaixoise

plus the French don't "snack"

3:34 pm

Uneaixoise

cool, monkey!

3:34 pm

pugmama763

immigrants with no weight issues their entire life will frequently get one after living here a while

3:34 pm

skheiny

I was just in france too monkey...for 2 weeks...saw many obese tourists, nto so many "locals"

3:35 pm

lil*monkey

when i ordered an ice cream cone from a streeet vendor, the ice cream scoop was about as big as a ping pong ball, no kidding

3:35 pm

pugmama763

yes portion is part but so much of our foods are "fake" foods

3:35 pm

lil*monkey

there are no "all you can eat" restaurants

3:36 pm

pugmama763

loaded with chemicals calories & stripped of most real nutrients

3:36 pm

skheiny

i think the french do snack...they buy a sandwich ( a big long baguette w/meat&cheese) and eat it all day long...at least thats what the shop owners told me...

3:36 pm

sprite

good evening all, the Icon Themes have been updated again. Any ideas I can add to the list?

3:36 pm

jacq

hello there fellow babblers

3:36 pm

sprite

hi jacq

3:37 pm

pugmama763

hi sprit & jac!

3:37 pm

lil*monkey

sprite, how about favorite Olympic sport as an icon theme?

3:37 pm

Uneaixoise

ok . . . when I lived there, people didn't snack . . . you ate a meal and that was that until the next meal . . .

3:37 pm

Uneaixoise

hey, sprite!

3:37 pm

skheiny

well, maybe...favorite works of art...just got back from paris...and so did monkey...museums galore...

3:38 pm

pugmama763

3:38 pm

lil*monkey

favorite artist or favorite work of art

3:38 pm

pugmama763

just grab & cram!

3:38 pm

sprite

good one!

3:38 pm

Boobear

clue for da 6 please

3:38 pm

Uneaixoise

maybe we could even do works of art by century? or style? or country?

3:38 pm

sprite

lil*monkey, the Olympics are already themes now, you can put in your favorite, would be great!

3:38 pm

skheiny

sprite, don't usually have time to do the "theme" and unfortunately don't keep up with them...so maybe favorite works of art has been done? dunno...

3:39 pm

lil*monkey

OK thanks sprite

3:39 pm

Uneaixoise

da6 very politically incorrect term for slaves back in the 1800s

3:39 pm

skheiny

even better idea Une!

3:39 pm

sprite

even if so, skheiny, it is a great one to repeat

3:39 pm

pugmama763

there are 3 da6 was that what you needed Boo?

3:39 pm

sprite

Une, what would you suggest then?

3:40 pm

Uneaixoise

favorite movie? favorite play?

3:40 pm

sprite

What about the favorite works of art? How should we split that theme up over a couple of days?

3:40 pm

Uneaixoise

favorite impressionist? favorite baroque? favorite portraitist?

3:41 pm

3:44 pm

pugmama763

hi FM

3:44 pm

elder

Sprite,, I was wondering re; themes... to suggest authors, men women.. you could also look at favorite novels. If you had women writers I would not have to feel awkward for one day as I tend not to change my very often as i have difficulty in doing so :) Women / men who changed the course of history for good or bad...

3:44 pm

FMitch

Hey pug

3:44 pm

skheiny

I want to go back to paris again and again monkey...how about you?

3:44 pm

Uneaixoise

3:45 pm

lil*monkey

I found the inaccessibility of bathrooms in Paris TRES ANNOYING

3:45 pm

sprite

3:45 pm

lil*monkey

bathrooms are rare and not free

3:45 pm

elder

Sprite...I am here seeing if I can finish this grid today/ evening.

3:45 pm

skheiny

shoot! monkey...we never made it to the go-carts...we figure that's next time...

3:45 pm

Uneaixoise

monkey, that was true 30 years ago--interesting that the potty francais situation hasn't really changed!

3:45 pm

FMitch

Oh I was getting ready to be impressed icep ;)

3:45 pm

sprite

I have favorite dish with a request for the recipe already. I like the restaurant as well :)

3:46 pm

lil*monkey

skheiny the go karts were so much fun... kids & adults had a blast

3:46 pm

Uneaixoise

cool, sprite!

3:46 pm

icepyro

im not that talented lol

3:46 pm

skheiny

ah, yes...lack of "le toilets"...well, we just pretended like we were already customers in the cafes and just made our way thru :D

3:46 pm

FMitch

Hey spritey sprite - well done for taking over from Babbler.

3:47 pm

elder

hello FMitch, just seen you , you must have slipped in under my radar.

3:47 pm

lil*monkey

yes, i did that skheiny, but I did get cursed out en francais in one cafe , when the garcon caught on

3:47 pm

skheiny

shoot, go cart was ont he list, but unfortunately I dragged hubby thru one too many museums...his back kinda gave out after day 9...

3:47 pm

FMitch

LOL ditto likewise elder, Evening :)

3:47 pm

Uneaixoise

wow, i'm impressed, skheiny--I remember trying that and being stopped and told I'd have to buy a drink or pay (a franc or so?)

3:48 pm

sprite

*copying ideas like mad*
I love you guys :)

3:48 pm

lil*monkey

Une, it's euros now... in Le Metro, it costs 2 Euros (approx $4 ) to use les toilettes

3:48 pm

elder

FMitch.. I was thinking had not seen Haz for some days.. then remembered, she is on holiday>:)

3:48 pm

Uneaixoise

on a slightly related note, my ex and I once left no tip for the waiter at a French cafe and were chased into the street@

3:49 pm

skheiny

well...I just smile...say "bonjou/soir" and made my way thru...dunno...got lucky I suppose

3:49 pm

lil*monkey

LOL Une

3:49 pm

Uneaixoise

monkey, that's incredible--2 euros to use the toilettes!!

3:49 pm

sprite

hi FMitch, thanks, hope I can keep up the good work.

3:49 pm

FMitch

Yup she is on hols - back next week, YAY!

3:49 pm

Uneaixoise

(we left no tip because the service was so bad)

3:49 pm

icepyro

lol now the real question is why you didnt leave a tip

3:49 pm

skheiny

yikes...yeah Une...we found out the VAT tax doesn't cover it all...tipping is diff in alot of countries

3:50 pm

lil*monkey

oui, oui.... at the Luxembourg Gardens, it was 60 cents (approx $1 ) to pee

3:50 pm

elder

With tales of her exciting ventures .

3:50 pm

icepyro

so... you got more attention by not giving a tip than by sitting there to eat lol

3:50 pm

Uneaixoise

in general we tipped gernerously--my ex had worked as a waiter, hairdresser, etc. and knew the value of a (deserved) tip

3:50 pm

lil*monkey

BRB... phone

3:50 pm

Vicuna

Hello, people.

3:51 pm

elder

On average in France and UK 10% of bill will usually be fine..

3:51 pm

Uneaixoise

sprite, maybe an icon category could be "funny experiences in other countries"!

3:51 pm

icepyro

uh oh.... er I mean ... Hi Vic =D

3:51 pm

Vicuna

How's my poor lonely adopted FM tonight?

3:51 pm

elder

Hello Vic.

3:51 pm

FMitch

Doh, I forgot the Hi Vi bit

3:52 pm

skheiny

we found it was best (if we paid by credit card) to tip in cash...understand that sometimes the individual waitstaff don't get the tips at all

3:52 pm

Vicuna

And greetings to you, icepyro. How lovely to see you today.

3:52 pm

FMitch

Very happy Vi as package arrived *big grin*

3:52 pm

Uneaixoise

well, and there are places that pay the servers NOTHING--their entire income is tips

3:52 pm

skheiny

hmmm, hubby reminded me that the VAT was 19% in Paris...

3:53 pm

Vicuna

=D

3:53 pm

jacq

sometimes they don't get it even if you tip in cash when i was waitressing they were shared out every 6 months and even the managers got a share, a bigger share than the rest of the staff

3:53 pm

icepyro

I knew a couple people who volunteered to work for tips....

3:53 pm

pugmama763

weird ! Sun shining brightly but just heard Long loud thunder!

3:54 pm

skheiny

yikes jac!!! were was that? (sorry, slow to read while typing...if all ready mentioned)

3:54 pm

Uneaixoise

gotta walk the pups . . . BBL

3:54 pm

icepyro

how to make a waitress distress: pool the tips per shift..

3:56 pm

FMitch

Sprite - it was a bit of a K grid today, had to smile when I looked at it as I thought of your :)

3:56 pm

skheiny

hmm, so jacq...did you live in a village/town/city? Is that standard policy?

3:58 pm

FMitch

Urf, internet is hic upp ing

3:58 pm

jacq

i live in a town and not standard but the owner is an idiot of the highest order and decided that even salaried staff are entitled to a share

3:58 pm

Vicuna

Shall I try to scare it, FM? Or will you give it a glass of water?

3:59 pm

skheiny

crappy, jacq! :(

3:59 pm

FMitch

Lets scare it - do you want to try IM?

3:59 pm

icepyro

how is he still in business? lol

3:59 pm

Vicuna

Sure, lemme try.

3:59 pm

icepyro

Vic are you going to sing again ? =D

4:00 pm

jacq

yes, but it's a way of holding staff for a while, they stay because they don't want to lose their tips

4:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi, all! :)

4:00 pm

Vicuna

Bother, FM, it's saying you're unavailable...

4:00 pm

pugmama763

4:01 pm

skheiny

4:01 pm

icepyro

4:01 pm

FMitch

Hi TO

Steady Vi - no arias please ;)

4:01 pm

Vicuna

Hello, TO.

4:02 pm

skheiny

hello TempleOwl, how's the weather in Philly?

4:03 pm

FMitch

LOL icep

4:03 pm

Vicuna

Alas. I wish I really could do damage with my singing alone. It might serve to keep the evil chipmunks out of my garden.

4:03 pm

sprite

lol FMitch, it was kruel. But I fought my way through it, again. With a little help from my babble friends for the last 2.

4:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:04 pm

FMitch

Vi, re IM will ponder why.

4:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

are you now the holiday coordinator, fm?

4:05 pm

FMitch

LOL No, only for Haz and Ata

4:05 pm

icepyro

so youve spoiled the owl to the point it no longer does its instinctual job of keeping pests out of the territory?

4:06 pm

Vicuna

icepyro, the owl hunts at night. The chipmunks are out in the day.

4:06 pm

skheiny

LOL ICE!

4:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi sprite! long time no see you!

4:06 pm

icepyro

fm, have you heard from ata?

4:06 pm

Vicuna

How could it sit on my head all day if it had to be out hunting chipmunks during daylight hours?

4:07 pm

72 Temple Owl

i saw ata last night.

4:07 pm

sprite

ok, dear all, the list should be updated now with all the great new ideas!

4:07 pm

FMitch

Yes ice, a couple of days ago, she was in Oregon having a great time.

4:07 pm

icepyro

oh I didnt know that, my only experience with chipmunks involve the names chip and dale, or alvin simon and theodore

4:08 pm

icepyro

that is good to hear fm

4:08 pm

skheiny

TO, may I ask...what part of the Philly are do you live in...live in Bucks Co myself for 20 yrs... (Wash Crossing/Langhorne/Newtown)

4:08 pm

elder

Sprite, thank you will look in a wee while. :)

4:08 pm

Vicuna

lol. No, the cartoons may portray chipmunks as cute, harmless little things, but in fact they are demon creatures of pure garden evil.

4:09 pm

72 Temple Owl

i live in montoco, near warminster

4:09 pm

skheiny

loved watching all the b-ball games, even saw a few in person..very exciting!!

4:09 pm

skheiny

hahah, lived there too!

4:09 pm

icepyro

squirrels were always my preference in that line of garden pests =D

4:09 pm

FMitch

So infact they are Chipmonks of Doooom?

4:10 pm

FMitch

monks? Chipmunks!

4:10 pm

skheiny

street road (tho it sounds redundant :S)

4:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:11 pm

I think I like chipmonks of doooooom

4:11 pm

Vicuna

Exactly, FM. "The Curse is come upon me!" I cry, as they sadistically massacre yet another innocent tomato.

4:14 pm

icepyro

I would take blame because I love to poke at you so much, but I dont work with chipmunks or chipmonks... Im a squirrel guy, altho that training is currently failing as there are not as many around here to recruit

4:14 pm

FMitch

Jacq thinks we are mad?

4:14 pm

sprite

yay elder :) It is no obligation, don't worry. But it can be a lot of fun.

4:14 pm

4:14 pm

Vicuna

Who is it who has the anti-squirrel obsession? Is that evanonut?

4:15 pm

FMitch

Ah thats OK Jacq, I was going to clarify it but glad to see you realised it already *giggle*

4:15 pm

4:15 pm

FMitch

Yes Vi

4:16 pm

sprite

4:16 pm

Vicuna

We are NOT mad, jacq. We are eccentric.

4:16 pm

Vicuna

SO, icepyro, I think you need to go needle her a bit!

4:16 pm

sprite

I think we are definitely north of eccentric.

4:16 pm

jacq

laughs mad, eccentric, insane, it's all in the plea bargain

4:16 pm

icepyro

vic is eccentric, I havent gotten any animals to remain on my head long enough for the claim

4:16 pm

4:58 pm

AprilD

it seems at the time I was the only one that understood or felt anything about it. I am happy to see other people (here) feel for you. That wasn't my experience, it was rather odd.

4:58 pm

4:59 pm

we had been trying for several years. I knew that it wasn't just a period and after several times getting blood drawn, after 3 or more weeks, the bleeding and the human growth hormone stopped.

4:59 pm

Aussieme

Hey Jilli.... If it happens, it happens... It just wasn't meant to be right now....

4:59 pm

AprilD

that is so odd Jac

5:00 pm
