3:21 am
Karys
hello herin... I saw what you did last week, it was very kind, a good deed passed on I think ?
3:21 am
sprite
not really, lady, we have a plastic stool for in the shower, but that is not comfortable. I am going to babble a bit, then go to bed, cover myself up and get warm and rested.
3:22 am
Karys
sounds like a good plan there sprite
3:22 am
herinfernallady
Yes indeed Karys since Jade sponsored me. I had some spare cash.
3:22 am
sprite

3:23 am
Karys
I remember how thrilled you were at the time herin !
3:23 am
jillibus
I seem to remember that when those horrendous hot permanent wave machines were no longer necessary, the new rage was the "cold wave"
3:23 am
herinfernallady
SPrite that doesn't sound comfy. Seems to be you would do well with putting on the electric blanket and laying there
3:23 am
sprite
jilli, I was thinking the same thing. Something my mother said when I was very young.
3:23 am
herinfernallady
I was just waiting to get some spare cash which i finally had and considering everything that has been good has happened lately
3:24 am

3:25 am
sprite

3:27 am
herinfernallady
Well i believe in paying it forward even if it doesn't cost anything. THe other week i bought fries for a little girl who had upended hers at Mac Donalds
3:27 am

3:39 am

for some obscure reason he is not talking to me, jilli, or at least not answering me at all. I think he did not even seriously check out Kiwi's ideas. Seems like things have to collapse before things can change?

4:25 am
FMitch
Morning nutty
4:25 am
Haz1558
Good morning all! Lori, there's a way of doing a babble grid for yourself. Take a sentence from a book, make into a grid, and off you go. But I'm not addicted.
4:25 am
LoriP
wow, nutter gets up this early? G'd mornin'!
4:26 am
FMitch
Welcome back Haz!
4:26 am
lynxxx
Hi Haz! your postcard hasn't come yet!
4:26 am
LoriP
lol Haz, neither am I. G'd morning, I hope you enjoyed 'yer trip.
4:26 am
lynxxx
morning Nutter
4:26 am
Haz1558
I did indeed, Lori - lynxx, just for you, I'll put up a pic...
4:27 am
LoriP
Was your house in need of cleaning when you got home? :/
4:28 am
Haz1558
Well, my daughter was in residence and she had done a good job, but yes, I cleaned it yesterday!
4:29 am
LoriP
lolol I knew it!
4:29 am
FMitch
lol Haz you still have your 'rowing' icon up from yesterday.
4:29 am
LoriP
Why isn't ploit a word? I want ploit!
4:29 am
Haz1558
And even more worrying, I had all the clothes washed and ironed the day we came back. I've turned into my mother.
4:30 am
Haz1558
Refresh, FMitch! Refresh!
4:30 am
lynxxx
There's something about your own version of clean, I always have the same problem if I am away for a few days or more
4:30 am
LoriP
Oh Haz, that's serious. You're hooped.
4:30 am
Haz1558
Thank you lynxxx, I'm not the only one then.
4:30 am
FMitch
Ahhhhh thats better
4:31 am
lynxxx
ROFL - a rowing icon !
4:32 am
Haz1558
The coastline was gorgeous.
4:32 am
Haz1558
So, whereabouts were you, Lori?
4:33 am
LoriP
Nothing so glamorous Haz. A 4 day stay at Mom and Dad's turned in to 9, and involved painting and ***gasp*** housework. :-)
4:34 am
Haz1558
Have you had therapy to recover?
4:36 am
Haz1558
Maybe the therapy has begun already.
4:36 am
LoriP
Uni helped, she was a great source of strenght to me, affirming that it was for a good cause....
4:36 am
Haz1558
Good girl - she's made of stern stuff.
4:36 am
LoriP
I think it scarred her as well.
4:37 am
LoriP
I balanced it all out by coming home and doing nothing. :p
4:37 am
FMitch
Very sensible.
4:38 am
Haz1558
So, it really was a working holiday? You need a proper rest after one of those.
4:38 am
LoriP
lol it was a nice mix of work and play. The kids had a blast spending time swimming and kayaking at my sister's cottage.
4:38 am
FMitch
Uni will probably seek sanctuary in the bookshop
4:39 am
Haz1558
They didn't flood the cottage so they could swim?
4:39 am
LoriP
I'm sure she will.
4:39 am
LoriP
I wouldn't put it past them Haz.....
4:40 am
Haz1558
I'm a bit floods on the brain these days. We had a month's rain fall in 12 hours here and the damage has been considerable, though we are fine in this house, thankfully.
4:40 am
LoriP
Unis is spending quality time with her Dad's side of the family. Guilt trips are a powerful thing.
4:40 am
FMitch
Jac was worried about you Haz as she had heard there was flooding in Ballymena
4:41 am
LoriP
That's not good Haz. Glad all is well with you, but I'm sure others are not as lucky.
4:41 am
Haz1558
There has been bad flooding in parts. L took a picture of the local playing fields the other evening - it was a lake!
4:42 am
Haz1558
My sister in law who was with us on holiday has had some flooding in her house - not because of the rain but thanks to a cracked valve in the cold water storage tank. It's a bit of a mess.
4:42 am
FMitch
Oh heck, not good to come home to.
4:43 am
LoriP
Guaranteed that if something like that happens, it will be while you're gone. Murphy's Law
4:43 am
Haz1558
Not really. She was alerted by a drip of water on her head when she went into the sitting room. Then the squelch underfoot....
4:44 am
Haz1558
It's going to force her to completely strip out the room but it was needing a makeover anyway.
4:44 am
lynxxx
I must go, trying to finish a kids jumper tonite...see you all later
4:44 am
LoriP
Water damage is nasty, and unfortunately, expensive. :(
4:44 am
Haz1558
See you later, lynxxx.
4:44 am
LoriP
Take care Lynx, have a good one!
4:45 am
FMitch
*grabs paint pots, colur charts and swatches*
Night lynxxx
4:45 am
Haz1558
I know, Lori, and she's quite sentimental about things so will find it hard to change things and throw out damaged stuff.
4:45 am
Haz1558
I hear you, FMitch!
4:47 am
FMitch
21 invisible words left *sets large pot of coffe on the table*
4:47 am
LoriP
Nice job FM, go go go! Thanks for the coffee.
4:48 am
LoriP
Is Ata Hari still on the road, or is she back?
4:48 am
FMitch
She is still in the US for a couple more weeks
4:48 am
FMitch
Heading down to Atlanta soon
4:48 am
LoriP
I thought so, but couldn't remember for sure.
4:49 am
Haz1558
I've heard she's still in negotiation with the immigration authorities about being allowed back into the UK.
4:50 am
Haz1558
We may have to mount a campaign.
4:50 am
LoriP
What's crawled up their collective shorts?
4:51 am
Haz1558
It's her activities. Can't say any more - Official Secrets Act and the Law of England and all that.
4:51 am
Haz1558
I've heard Jordan has friends in high places.
4:51 am
LoriP
Ahh, very covert. I always thought she looked shifty.
4:51 am
FMitch
Im not sure that would be a problem to her having to stay in the US
he he Haz postman has just been
4:52 am
Haz1558
Shifty doesn't begin to describe it.
4:52 am
Alex7777
how many words today?
4:52 am
Haz1558
Oh good, FMitch - that's a LOT more efficient than it would have been coming from <-------.
4:52 am
LoriP
I dasn't elaborate, since any affiliation with her could be misconstrued by "the man"
4:52 am
LoriP
G'd morning Alex
4:53 am
FMitch
It must have been printed in Auss!
4:53 am
Haz1558
Very wise, Lori. Very wise.
4:53 am
Alex7777
good morning Lori
4:53 am
Haz1558
Possibly, Fmitch, or else the printer was too busy being laid back to notice.
4:53 am
FMitch
or you were visiting Rabiznaz not Zanzibar
4:53 am
Lizsark
Hello all :)
4:54 am
Haz1558
Hello Liz!
4:54 am
FMitch
Morning Liz
4:54 am
Lizsark
Fmitch! I sent Fran a message from you and she said she'll dop you a line sometime and she misses you too :)
4:55 am
FMitch
Oh thanks Liz :)
4:57 am
LoriP
G'd morning Liz.
4:57 am
FMitch
Well this grid is full of new words (for me) and very few babbletsto fill in the gaps.
4:58 am
Haz1558
Maybe that explains why words have stopped jumping out at me.
4:59 am
FMitch
yup they are entrenched in the depths although I do have 1 x 8
4:59 am
LoriP
***This grid is poopy***
5:01 am
Haz1558
Now, now, positivity please. This grid is challenging of intellectual capacity and cranial dimensions.
5:01 am
FMitch
I can forsee lots of 'chairs, hooks and crosses' in the cluing later.
5:01 am
LoriP
yah, that's why it's poopy!
5:01 am
LoriP
***I don't like to think***
5:01 am
Haz1558
But with a positive attitude and the judicious use of all resources, including you know what, you too can triumph!
5:02 am
LoriP
I don't use ....what's that resource again Haz?
5:02 am
Haz1558
You don't use the best resource known to man or babbler?
5:02 am
Haz1558
NO wonder you get stuck.
5:03 am
Haz1558
If you used www.morewords.com, you too could have time to do the grid AND polish your chimney pots.
5:03 am
LoriP
Nope. I am a martyr at heart, I like suffering.
5:03 am
LoriP
heh heh heh like I'd use the spare time to clean things. ROFLMAO
5:04 am
Lizsark
Sorry got sidetracked there for a moment - morning Lori
5:04 am
Haz1558
A girl can dream.
5:04 am
Lizsark
Does anyone know what todays icon theme is?
5:04 am
LoriP
Unless I become an amnesia victim Haz, it'll never happen.
5:05 am
Haz1558
Don't talk to me about icon themes.
5:05 am
LoriP
Sorry Liz, no idea
5:05 am
Haz1558
Wouldn't that be amazing, Lori? A smack on the head and you might become a Stepford Wife.
5:05 am
FMitch
Go to ranking Liz and look at sprite bio, she is hosting the themes now.
5:06 am
Lizsark
will do...
5:06 am
Haz1558
There's been a lot of talk about it the past few days, Liz. I can't seem to muster the interest others do.
5:06 am
FMitch
Thats 'cos you are still on that wonderful beach Haz and who would worry about anything in paradise?
5:07 am
Haz1558
There's a downside to paradise, though. People who live there are dirt poor.
5:07 am
Alex7777
where is everyone at? I'm in North Wales.
5:08 am
Lizsark
hmm I looked...
5:08 am
FMitch
Near Heathrow Alex
5:08 am
Alex7777
Uxbridge?
5:08 am
Alex7777
Uxbridge?
5:08 am
Lizsark
Hi Alex I'm in the Channel Islands
5:09 am
LoriP
Ahh, theme discussions came to a head?
5:09 am
FMitch
No west of there near Windsor
5:09 am
Lizsark
I didn't know Babbler was giving up doing it but Sprite seems very um organised
5:10 am
Alex7777
oh right, I know the area quite well, stayed there for almost a year
5:10 am
FMitch
well Babbler had been doing it for several years so I think she wanted a break
5:10 am
Haz1558
The icon theme thing is dear to many people's heart, but I personally see it as a voluntary thing rather than as an obligation.
5:11 am
Lizsark
I thought it was voluntary - is it not anymore?
5:11 am
FMitch
Do I remember you are on a farm Alex or was that someone else?
Of course it's voluntary!
5:12 am
Lizsark
thats a relief - some of the upcoming themes would have me stumped
5:12 am
Alex7777
lol, yes, good memory
5:12 am
Haz1558
Yes, it is voluntary, absolutely, but there is pressure for it to be seen as an obligation. I won't change my icon every day - sometimes it's nice to have the same icon to make babblers recognisable.
5:13 am
Lizsark
yes, I if I find one I like then I leave it for ages - I like to recognise other people too
5:13 am
FMitch
I remember a conversation you had with Atalante as she knew the area round where you are.
5:13 am
Lizsark
When does Ata get home from her trip FM?
5:14 am
FMitch
I don't want a clue but is the re8 a sensible word?
Couple of weeks Liz
5:14 am
Alex7777
out of interest how did everyone come across Babble?
5:14 am
LoriP
Uni (my daughter) found it, and told me, I was instantly hooked.
5:14 am
FMitch
It ws in the Daily Mail 3 years ago Alex
5:15 am
Haz1558
re8 is a slight reworking of a word meaning to put someone down a league.
5:15 am
LoriP
No idea FM, I'm ignoring re's.....
5:15 am
Lizsark
I saw it in the Daily Telegraph some time ago
5:15 am
Lizsark
I hate re words!
5:15 am
Alex7777
thats how I found it too, in the daily mail
5:15 am
LoriP
I agree Liz, they should be voluntary.
5:15 am
Haz1558
That's how I came upon it as well, Alex. I've managed to avoid becoming addicted, though.
5:15 am
FMitch
Luckily there arent too many of them today
5:16 am
FMitch
yea right Haz!
5:16 am
Lizsark
First sign of an addict Haz - DENIAL!
5:16 am
Alex7777
I'm not addicted, think I've only ever completed it once or twice, just try to get at
5:16 am
Haz1558
I have what I like to think of as a mild attachment.
5:16 am
Alex7777
atleast 50 or 100
5:16 am
LoriP
***laughing uproariously @ Haz***
5:17 am
Haz1558
Was it something I said?
5:17 am
Lizsark
**giggling quietly at Haz**
5:17 am
FMitch
*rolls eyes and tuts* at Haz
5:17 am
LoriP
yah, Haz quits Babble each and every day.....
5:18 am
Lizsark
yes - its a bit like me and chocolate!
5:18 am
Haz1558
I went for 2 weeks and didn't take a laptop or anything. A pen, a bit of paper and a home-made grid worked just fine.
5:19 am
FMitch
LOL not addicted at all, poor Haz, there is no hope for her.
5:20 am
LoriP
Clearly in control of her demons....
5:20 am
Haz1558
Absolutely.
5:20 am
Haz1558
I didn't do the home-made grid thing every day.
5:21 am
Haz1558
That proves I'm not addicted.
5:21 am
Haz1558
Doesn't it?
5:22 am
Scrabbler
Hello everyone. I am pleased to see lots of silliness in the chat today.
5:22 am

Morning Scrabbler and cross
5:22 am
crosshair

5:22 am
Scrabbler
Hi Crosshair--we arrived at the same time!
5:22 am
Haz1558
Good morning Scrabbler and cross. Silliness? Where?
5:22 am
LoriP
G'd morning Scrabbler, cross
5:23 am
Alex7777
how old is everyone here?
5:23 am
FMitch
Now now, not nice to ask a lady her age!
5:23 am
LoriP
well, I've seen 29 a few times Alex.
5:23 am
crosshair
im just a tad older than dirt myself;)
5:23 am
Haz1558
I'm as old as Madonna but not quite the same shape.
5:23 am
Scrabbler
Chronologically I am 48, but I act like a 10 year old.
5:24 am
Scrabbler
Haha, look at our replies!
5:24 am
Haz1558
But if we get the Butt- Be-Gone up and running, she'd better watch out.
5:24 am
LoriP
*** diverse ***
5:24 am
Alex7777
whats it like being so old? do you really feel physically older?
5:24 am
Lizsark
*passes Haz some valium for her next day of withdrawal*
5:24 am
crosshair
room full of women,they will all say 29 and holding alex
5:25 am
crosshair
if i could afford it i would get theese feet cut off and get plastic feet
5:25 am
Lizsark
My 9 year old son told my two year old daughter that Mum is 39 and my darling daughter said in a horrifed voice "Mummy's not THAT old"
5:25 am
Haz1558
So old? Most days I can struggle out of bed without the zimmer, but by evening time I have to resort to it. And wrinkle cream by the bucket load, of course.
5:25 am
Scrabbler
Haha, Alex. "Old" is relative!! With age comes wisdom...and daily aches.
5:25 am
crosshair
see? they even train thier kids to lie about it:)
5:25 am
FMitch
Alex obviously has yet to learn the word ta4/5 :)
5:26 am
LoriP
I like my new walker. It has a basket to hold my meds.....
5:26 am
Haz1558
He has no future in the Diplomatic Corps. that's for sure.
5:26 am
Lizsark
I never got the wisdom bit as I grew older Scrabbs!
5:26 am
crosshair
lol needed that one fm:)
5:26 am
Haz1558
Is it one of the wheelie ones, Lori?
5:26 am
Scrabbler
Lori, do you need me to write any new prescriptions for you?
5:27 am
crosshair
scrabbs,do they have tylenol sevens? lol
5:27 am
Alex7777
I'm polite but I think its better to be straight to the point rather than ta4/5 -ful
5:27 am
meliae
Hello all got the late shift tonight/morning diving in will be out to chat in a bit
5:27 am
LoriP
Yes please Scrabbler. You know what I like, er, need.... Of course Haz. Next, I'd like a motorized chair.
5:27 am
LoriP
G'd morning meliae
5:27 am
Lizsark
I have a spare trowel for spreading on the wrinkle cream if anyone wants to borrow it lol
5:28 am
FMitch
So how ol'd are you Alex?
5:28 am
Lizsark
good for you FM!!!! LOL
5:28 am
Haz1558
Those motorized chairs are great, but you have to be careful with the batteries. Put one in that's too strong and WHAM! You're out the door before you know it.
5:28 am
crosshair
oxycontins for all over 40 wheee!
5:28 am
Alex7777
time is going so fast, i dont want to get old
5:29 am
Haz1558
Good morning meliae!
5:29 am
LoriP
Alex, be grateful for every day 'yer feet hit the floor. Being old is a privelege many don't see.
5:29 am
Eva
good morning everyone.
5:29 am
Lizsark
Getting older gives you freedom you dont have when you are younger Alex, you worry less about other peoples opinions and just take care of what really matters
5:29 am
crosshair
there are 3 kinds of time alex slow time,regular time and fast time
5:29 am
Haz1558
Good morning, Eva.
5:29 am
LoriP
G'd morning Eva. Any of the narcotics are fine with me cross.
5:29 am
crosshair
read the short story "my pretty pony"
5:30 am
FMitch
and then babble time where you loose hours and hours and suddenly go - how come it has got to 11.30 and I have work to do ,sigh.
5:30 am
Scrabbler
So true, Alex, so enjoy each day. The real advantage of getting older is that you gain life experience and wisdom. My 40's have been my best decade yet.
5:30 am
Alex7777
if you were all young again, would there be anything you would have done differently?
5:30 am
Scrabbler
Hi meliae and Eva
5:30 am
Haz1558
Le double sigh. I have shopping to do. I procrastinated yesterday but can't put it off today.
5:30 am
Eva
FMitch-come here and it will only be 6:30 am and you'll have plenty of time
5:31 am
crosshair
if i were young again...id marry my wife sooner...:))
5:31 am
Lizsark
You know what, I lost my very best friend to a sudden unforeseen aneurism when he was 45 - I live each day like theres no tomorrow now - lifes for living not stressing over getting old
5:31 am
FMitch
I like your thinking Eva :)
5:31 am
Lizsark
aw cross thats lovely
5:31 am
Haz1558
I would have taken better care of my teeth.
5:31 am
LoriP
Never look back Alex. It only gets better, and you're more sure of who you are as time passes. no do-overs.
5:32 am
LoriP
Don't go FM, ignore it, and it will go away!
5:32 am
crosshair
i would of never started smoking,only to have had to quit 25 years later
5:32 am
FMitch
I hate to say it but I have to go :(
5:32 am
Lizsark
*hugs* FM
5:32 am
Eva
bye FM...don't work too hard
5:32 am
Scrabbler
Alex, be less afraid of what other think. Thoughts are just thoughts and are not usually based on reality or facts. Don't sweat the small stuff. Experience life--travel, meet people, do new things...
5:32 am
LoriP
***pouty face*** Have a good one FM
5:32 am
crosshair
all that wasted money....
5:32 am
Haz1558
So do I! Back later. Bye!
5:32 am
Lizsark
Thanks for the photo by the way FM - I forgot to say
5:32 am
FMitch
Hugs to all and back in a while.
5:33 am
crosshair
underlines scrabbs dont sweat the small stuff
5:33 am
Scrabbler
Well, at least you quit, Crosshair. That is not an easy task.
5:33 am
LoriP
See ya' soon Haz, FM
5:33 am
Alex7777
thanks for the education
5:33 am
Haz1558
Don't sweat the small stuff, but do wear deodorant.
5:33 am
Scrabbler
Bye Hazel
5:33 am
crosshair
quit 2002:))
5:33 am
LoriP
Scrabbler knows.
5:34 am
crosshair
sweating the small stuff is like trying to empty the ocean with a tea spoon
5:34 am
MonkeyGames
Hifolks! Just on over lunch. How is everyone?
5:35 am
Scrabbler
Alex--Richard Carlson, a psychologist wrote several books called "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff..." and 1 called "What About the Big Stuff?". They are great books. Then he died suddenly of a pulmonary embolism at age 45 almost 2 yrs ago.
5:35 am
crosshair
howndy monkey your just in time,we are getting all zen here this morn
5:35 am
MonkeyGames
Oh nice, I could use it!
5:35 am
crosshair
good thing he didnt waste time sweating
5:36 am
LoriP
Okay, the c sucks. ***c cancelled due to lack of interest***
5:36 am
crosshair
i have one for you all then....
5:36 am
Michnick
Hi everyone, I'm supposed to be working but you know....
5:36 am
MonkeyGames
We know.
5:36 am
LoriP
G'd morning Mich. take a break or 3!
5:36 am
Scrabbler
Geez, my coffee was done several minutes ago and I got all caught up in the chat.
5:36 am
Scrabbler
Hi Michnick
5:36 am
crosshair
stone and sea are 2 unalterable symbols of life,pemanance at rest,pemanance in motion,paticipants in the power that remains;)
5:37 am
Scrabbler
Neat metaphor
5:37 am
LoriP
Very nice cross
5:37 am
MonkeyGames
Hey Scrabbs, off to the doctor this afternoon. Walter still getting slowlky better but still complaining of sore throat and still pale and gets tired easily. Wakt to avoid blood tests if possible, but what sort of things should I ask for? Nose and throat swab?
5:37 am
crosshair
and that was crossy deep thought of the day,now back to your regualr light useless patter;)
5:39 am
Scrabbler
Swabs/cultures are of no use unless Strep throat is suspected. An exam will help. If he is extremely pale then a blood count could be done.
5:40 am
LoriP
***random hug to Scrabbler*** How 'bout those narcotics?
5:40 am
Lizsark
I wish I'd read your profile more carefully when my daughter was ill Scrabbs!!!
5:40 am
MonkeyGames
He's not alarmingly pale, just paler than he usually is. I don't suspect anemia, but I'll leave that up to his doctor. Maybe I should just ask for a referral to a pediatrician.
5:40 am
crosshair
crossy is still waiting for his scrip.....
5:41 am
Scrabbler
What was she sick with, Liz?
5:42 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Crosshair, I am writing them all out. I am being cautious to avoid drug interactions with the list that you need.
5:42 am
LoriP
Very sensible Scrabbler.
5:42 am
Scrabbler
And Lori, you need more than narcotics...we all do.
5:42 am
Lizsark
she had a bronchitis and a viral influenza type infection. The doc put her on penicillin and she had a sever allergic reaction to it. Ended up not able to even keep water down and was hospitalized with dehydration.
5:42 am
LoriP
lol, I leave that to your good judgement.
5:43 am
Lizsark
my typing is all over the place, sorry!
5:43 am
Eva
oooh - are we shopping for narcotics?
5:43 am
LoriP
Yes Eva, the line forms to my left.
5:44 am
MonkeyGames
Just give me the sample pach and I'll get back to you...
5:44 am
MonkeyGames
pack, I mean...
5:44 am
Eva
babbling could become quite lucrative
5:45 am

the two girls had a TIE score on the uneven bars... in the old days, each would have received a gold medal. The new rules dictate there cannot be a tie. The tie-breaking rules are too complicated to explain here, but it involves dropping one score. The result was that the Chinese girl got the gold.

frightened of clowns?
10:06 am
missbeeze
i imagine! i don't like clowns that are puppets mainly
10:06 am
missbeeze
not really real clowns, but doll type clowns and some dolls that have that weird stare thing going on
10:06 am
harpjane

10:07 am
joshuavorbis

10:07 am
harpjane

10:07 am
joshuavorbis

10:07 am

10:56 am
SeanS
too much work to change my icon every day...

te6/21 - add consonant to the te5 before it
11:19 am
BethaneyD
I don't have that one.
11:19 am
SeanS
when did that happen bethaney?
11:19 am
BzznBea
First three letters of the te6/24 + opp of short
11:19 am
SeanS
everything on imdb still says november...
11:19 am
missbeeze
i don't have the 5 or the 6 kj!
11:19 am
mom2han8
same three first letters as te 6/24... then the opposite of short minus last consonant.
11:19 am
BethaneyD
They announced the move this week, Sean. Twilight has been moved to fill the before Thanksgiving slot.
11:20 am
BethaneyD
So if you are a Twilight fan, Sean, it's still good news! haha! (Haven't read those books myself)
11:20 am
mom2han8
te 5/12 is the te 6/21 minus the last vowel
11:20 am
SeanS
wow! that's so disappointing!
11:20 am
SeanS
i actually just bought the first twilight book after a friend recommended it, just starting it and liking it so far
11:21 am
kje
haven't heard of twilight
11:21 am
BethaneyD
It is due to the writer's strike. There weren't many big blockbusters for next summer, so the Harry Potter folks decided to capitalize on the vacuum. It'll make so much money with less competition.
11:21 am
mom2han8
Never heard of Twilight...what is the genre?
11:22 am
BethaneyD
I started to read Twilight but I had too many books going at once. It's a YA vampire book.
11:22 am
SeanS
it's fantasy, i suppos, mom2han
11:22 am
mom2han8
I love YA lit
11:22 am
SeanS
it takes place in our current world only vampires have always existed and we've always known about them...
11:22 am
mom2han8
OK... I will read it and then pass it on to my kid... thanks!
11:22 am
kje
aaaahhh - vampires, hmmm
11:23 am
missbeeze
ok, so i am being dense i suppose, but te6/24 first 3 letters plus opp of short?
11:23 am
missbeeze
nm got it
11:23 am
SeanS
i like YA a lot too... seems so much more creative sometimes
11:23 am
missbeeze
wow i am dense
11:23 am
BzznBea
Half way - No list. BBL *poof*
11:23 am
BethaneyD
I think I only made it to the end of Chapter one. I didn't even get to the good bits, I am sure. My book pile is steadily growing smaller. I will have to add it back to the bottom.
11:23 am
SeanS
was that a positive or negative reaction to vampires, kathryn?
11:24 am
BethaneyD
Young Adult

haven't really read the genre - don't get the whole sucking blood thing
11:25 am
missbeeze
so i am looking at the L and the O on the grid and thinking opp of short is long and not getting the clue forever! lol!
11:25 am
SeanS
well, maybe you'd get it if you read about it, haha.... no its not for everyone... i did like the anne rice vampire books though

SeanS
landlord just called telling me that they couldn't fix the problem with the freezer in my fridge, so they're just buying me a totally new one...
11:28 am
BethaneyD
From what I have read thus far, Twilight is much more in the vein of a gothic romance with more melodrama and chastity and such.
11:28 am
Sandieangel
wow that fl word is stoopid! Thanks so much kje
11:28 am
SeanS
i've heard that too, bethaney, but i haven't gotten that far yet

11:31 am
missbeeze
hardly any actually. It is rare. I have had stints of fiction that I have enjoyed. I liked Anne Rice and read the books in the day, but would not enjoy them now. I used to like Sidney Sheldon books, but probably wouldn't enjoy his work anymore. I like true writing - true crime, documentaries, biographies, etc.
11:32 am
SeanS
do you like movies or TV shows at all that aren't non-fiction?
11:32 am
missbeeze
and I enjoyed Harry Potter. I read Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy years ago, although it was a long read i admit - but i enjoyed it. I used to love to read - i read really early
11:32 am
missbeeze
i don't know what it is about fiction now
11:32 am
missbeeze
movies i like, but not tv
11:32 am
BethaneyD
Some books are good for a season, and you can only enjoy them at that time. Some of my favorite books I've never reread. I'm afraid I'll stop loving them if I do. :)
11:32 am
SharonRA
9 to go
11:33 am

fi5 please?
11:33 am
missbeeze
i do not enjoy television programs. Since Seinfeld, nothing has held my attention. I like old Twilight Zone and watch the marathons
11:33 am
SeanS
one of my recent favorites has been the "His Dark Materials" trilogy. absolutely loved it
11:33 am
BethaneyD
Go Sharon!
11:33 am
SeanS
well, i suppose you are consistent then, beeze, haha
11:33 am
SeanS
not too many people out there that don't enjoy a good fiction story every now and then... i can't get enough of them
11:33 am
missbeeze
i enjoy only reality television - i love true crime shows and independent films - real stuff
11:34 am
SeanS
i suppose real life just isn't interesting enough for me? hmm... what does that say about me?
11:34 am
missbeeze
i enjoyed the show House most recently, but only for about half a season and lost interest....
11:34 am
SeanS
reality TV can be okay... i really hated it at first
11:34 am
missbeeze
i don't know!? i don't know what the opp says about me!
11:34 am
scribekd
fi5 = f + the reason you scratch
11:34 am

now i can't stand the show.
11:35 am

definitely like House a lot... still very much into it

11:35 am
scribekd
you're welcome
11:35 am
missbeeze
i find television too predictable - the humor does not amuse me - it is like i know it is coming - every joke, every one liner - blah!
11:36 am
scribekd
pugmama763-add 2 vowels to that one for the next fi
11:36 am
missbeeze
movies i love though - weird
11:36 am
SeanS
maybe you're just not watching the right comedy shows :)
11:36 am
BethaneyD
ty scribe! I needed those too.
11:36 am
missbeeze
no, not even the office amuses me
11:36 am
pugmama763
ty scribe
11:37 am
SeanS
the office is okay... best sit com ever was arrested development
11:38 am
missbeeze
some of my best friends love the show arrested development. i admit i didn't give it a chance...don't give sitcoms a chance anymore
11:38 am
SeanS
all the humor on the office is just awkward silences...
11:38 am
kje
arrested development was hilarious! but loved seinfeld too
11:38 am
SeanS
yes, in general sit coms are bad
11:38 am
BethaneyD
breeze, I find most American tv unfun. But I like to dive into the vaults of BBC and the canceled stuff for watching pleasure. I'm with you though. I'd rather watch a movie.
11:38 am

Hi again. Just on 'til House in a bit... How is everyone? I am feeling greatly relieved, Walter is much more himself finally.
1:00 pm
periwinkle
glad to hear that Monkey, did the doctors ever figure out what he had
1:01 pm
periwinkle
hello all
1:02 pm
MonkeyGames
No. We were there again today though, and the doctor said he expects Walter will be 100% within 2 or 3 weeks.... Some sort of heavy hit from one of the millions of not-well-defined virii out there.
1:03 pm
periwinkle
someone here recently spoke of a book: Tales of A Female Nomad, stating they liked it. I just took it out of the library. Read on chapter and it is very good so far.
1:03 pm
MonkeyGames
Thing is, other people have been saying he seems fine... But Walter is such a sunny boy! He foinds everything funny or charming or pleasing, and in recent weeks there has been very little laughter around here. Until today.
1:03 pm
periwinkle
glad to hear that he is doing better though, Monkey, it is just as hard for you as for him
1:04 pm

1:15 pm

Traveling alone is fun. When I was 17 I went for 6 weeks in Guadalajara and didn't know anyone. It was great! I did go through a University so I had a base of people I could go to though, but I did a week in Barra de Navided and was the only non-Mexican there. VERY nice little town!

4:01 pm
Michnick
Good point Hurshy
4:02 pm
jacq

4:02 pm
Runnerbean
a noun is the name of a person place or thing - at least that is what my teachers told me
4:02 pm
icepyro
yeah... proper nouns and any capitalized words dont count. and also the dictionary this game uses is older than Harry Potter
4:02 pm
Runnerbean
ai 2 nd one sounds like a letter - one after g
4:03 pm
jacq
i moved school a lot during my formative years i missed most of that noun pronoun stuff, but i can construct a failry good sentence
4:03 pm

4:15 pm
icepyro
cabinet is appointed by president, so of course they will change with the president usually
4:16 pm
redturtlehead
if Barack becomes president I imaginne the cabinet would change quite a bit.
4:16 pm
hurshy
but, i dunno if you can be a cabinet member if you are always singing goofy songs about your cats anyway
4:16 pm

it is a fancy spelling of a red-or-black game disk
4:18 pm
KnightTime

4:19 pm
Michnick
I am missing something because it is not working for me.
4:19 pm
hurshy
it is the chancellor of the exch7
4:20 pm
Uneaixoise
add a consonant to ch6
4:20 pm
Michnick
OK, it was what I had tried but I kept hitting an extra key.
4:20 pm
Michnick
Oh no, must be time for bed.

poll: if you could be healthy and beautiful and smart and happy, would you want to live forever on this earth (or at least, say, in this universe, in case we get better at space travel)
4:22 pm
Uneaixoise
would everyone else be healthy and beautiful etc. as well?
4:22 pm
hurshy
yes. or at least everyone who chose to.
4:24 pm
KnightTime
would the earth continue in its current condition?
4:24 pm
hurshy
define current condition
4:24 pm
KnightTime
the way it is now
4:24 pm
Uneaixoise
going to hell in a handbasket?
4:25 pm
hurshy
i know but which ASPECTS of the way it is now are you thinking of
4:25 pm
KnightTime
all aspects
4:25 pm
hurshy
well clearly many aspects would change
4:25 pm
KnightTime
would i have to remain where I live now?
4:25 pm
KnightTime
and if I am in jail, do I have to remain there?
4:26 pm
icepyro
by definition if *everyone* became smart then a lot of todays problems would work itself out I think
4:26 pm
hurshy
hmm, trickier one
4:26 pm
Uneaixoise
ARE you in jail?? LOL
4:26 pm
KnightTime
if everyone is smart, then by definition everyone is stupid
4:26 pm
hurshy
exactly, ice
4:26 pm
icepyro
and knight, unless sentenced to death, there is a time limit on jail... life is 99 years...
4:27 pm
KnightTime
what if the only way I can remain happy is to remain in jail
4:27 pm
hurshy
then you would be allowed to stay
4:27 pm
KnightTime
and waht if the only way i can be happy is to be smarter than everyone else
4:28 pm
hurshy
let me rephrase the poll: if the world became very close to utopia, would an indefinite lifespan appeal to you?
4:28 pm
Uneaixoise
or more beautiful . . .
4:28 pm
icepyro
and happiness is relative to good happenings... so as they say.. you can't please all the people all the time...
4:28 pm
KnightTime
much better question
4:28 pm
Uneaixoise
so there would be no medical profession, eh?
4:28 pm
KnightTime
happness is a choice irrespective of conditions
4:28 pm
Uneaixoise
with everyone healthy
4:29 pm
hurshy
there would be a medical profession, that's what would keep people healthy
4:29 pm
Uneaixoise
ooohhh
4:29 pm
jacq
back into a deep convo
4:30 pm
icepyro
hurshy... Id rather just die and go to heaven as I already intend to do then if its all the same to you
4:30 pm
KnightTime
so we definitely would want the medical people happy
4:30 pm
hurshy
on the one hand, i'm glad people are all thinking deeply about this - but thanks ice for the first actual answer :)
4:30 pm
Uneaixoise
knight LOL!
4:30 pm
Uneaixoise
what's YOUR answer, hursh?
4:30 pm
hurshy
my answer is no
4:31 pm
Uneaixoise
because . . .
4:31 pm
icepyro
the problem with your question is that it is an impossibility in a free will environment
4:31 pm
jacq
may i ask what the question is?
4:31 pm
hurshy
because i already don't know what to do with myself, what do i need more time to sit around twiddling my thumbs for?
4:32 pm
hurshy
it may be less impossible than you think
4:32 pm
hurshy
but, hopefully you are right and things will go wrong.
4:33 pm
icepyro
hurshy.... dont get the wrong idea... I desire to live forever or at least until my time has come, but just like heaven and hell, utopia is defined by one's ideals and to attempt to create that on earth... I'd rather be in heaven and live by God's ideals
4:34 pm
icepyro
as so often quoted in the matrix trilogy.. the problem is choice =D
4:35 pm
hurshy
i'm reading "citizen cyborg", you see, and it's all about advances in biotech, nanotech, etc etc, and the author is very optimistic and also very enthusiastic about the possibilities
4:35 pm
SeanS
hello, back for 15 minutes or so before the end of the work day
4:36 pm
KnightTime
read brave new world for a more realistic view
4:36 pm

see the future is far more likely to end up like the star wars universe than the star trek one.
4:36 pm
kje
I came back about a minute ago, but then saw une's icon... and became speechless
4:37 pm
SeanS
he's not THAT good looking! haha
4:37 pm
icepyro
or at the least... like the book the moon is a harsh mistress
4:38 pm
hurshy
i guess i figure, God won't allow anything to work if he really doesn't want it to work, and he can end the world whenever he wants, and if someone were able to become immortal (here) and they chose that, and stuck with that choice, then they probably wouldn't have chosen God in any case.

I haven't seen too much of the track and field. It does come on very late. That's why I'm watching so much lightweight boxing. It's what is on!

Hope you stay safe. Being in the midst of a storm is nerve racking.
6:13 pm
redturtlehead
so far I have electricity. My only real worry is getting to work without becoming a patient.
6:15 pm
BethaneyD
Good luck. I grew up in Oklahoma. We never had big storms, just tornadoes. Not as big as hurricanes and much quicker to pass.
6:16 pm
BethaneyD
So it was intense, but there wasn't much of a waiting game.
6:17 pm
redturtlehead
this storm is apparently slow, we have had a few tornados today, but not like the wild ones in Oklahoma!
6:18 pm
BethaneyD
It does feel like I have heard lots of news about Fay so far. It seems very slow thus far. Stay safe. And I hope you keep your electricity on throughout and don't become a patient. ;)

11:11 pm
kje

11:12 pm
tygerbryght

11:12 pm
tygerbryght

11:12 pm
Minveryork
I do not have any cake,but I have some yummy Lindt chocolate bars kje.I have orange,toffee & raspberry
11:12 pm
kje
te + anagram of feline
11:12 pm
kje
then add consonant for the 5
11:13 pm
kje
I love orange and chocolate, is it dark chocolate?
11:13 pm
Minveryork
te 5/12 is te plus anagram for feline & a te6/21 is te 5/12 word plus consonant tygerbryght.
11:13 pm
tygerbryght
kje, my brain is *fried*. I need easy clues tonite
11:14 pm
kje
te + *ups of *ea would be nice with sug*r
11:14 pm
Minveryork
No, I do not like dark chocolate kje. Lindt store had a great sale:10 chocolate bars for only twelve dollars
11:14 pm
kje
some people use mi*k but I think that is gross
11:15 pm
tygerbryght
I finally figured it out. thx, guys
11:15 pm
kje
wow, that is amazing price mnver, but I like the dark stuff, darker the better - they have a great 85%
11:15 pm
Minveryork
t5/12 is te plus New England state abbreviation plus vowel and te 6/21 is te 5/12 plus the twelfth letter.
11:17 pm
tygerbryght
I lurve dark choc, but anything richer than 60% isn't mmm chewy enough for me
11:17 pm
Minveryork
I have been dog-sitting my S-I-L's dog and I love him!
11:17 pm
kje
love it with a cup of good coffee
11:18 pm
kje
what is it min?
11:18 pm
Minveryork
I am not a dog person, but this dog is great! I do not want to send him back. Took him to Vermont with me
11:18 pm
tygerbryght
I'm *very* fond of the Lindor dark chocolate truffles. they're not as good as homemade, of course, but far above the average bought candy
11:18 pm
tygerbryght
LOL, min. sounds like you may wind up getting yourself a dog like that one
11:19 pm
Minveryork
He is a Cavelier King Charles Spaniel and 6 months old
11:19 pm
tygerbryght
and not as high in calories, I think :P
11:19 pm
tygerbryght
they're quite nice little dogs, min. I can understand it
11:19 pm
kje
OK, just dozed off for a sec - no flip for me tonight - happy hunting tyger... and kiss the doggie for me min - later!
11:19 pm
tygerbryght
later, kje
11:20 pm
Minveryork
I would LOVE to get a dog like it, but they are 1,200 dollars. Unfortunately a little expensive for me now.
11:20 pm
Minveryork
Goodbye kje! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
11:20 pm
tygerbryght
have your SIL ask the breeder about rescues, min
11:21 pm
tygerbryght
sometimes breeders have to take dogs back from buyers. that might be a way for you to get one at little or no expense
11:22 pm
harpjane
done, thank you for the help!
11:22 pm
Minveryork
My husband has been wanting a dog for the past ten years and I have always said no. Now he will really be asking to get one after this dog leaves.But he wants a big dog though like a German Shepard. Not for me!
11:23 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations harpjane on fireworks! Good for you
11:23 pm
tygerbryght
so tell him it's a little dog or no dog ;)
11:24 pm
tygerbryght
say you want a CKC for your birthday, or something :)
11:25 pm
Minveryork
I think that a Cavelier King Charles Spaniel is a good compromise.There are dogs that are smaller & other dogs that are bigger.I guess we willl see what we get
11:26 pm
tygerbryght
I'd love to chat, but I'm exhausted & have a headache, but I was determined to finish this grid. now I've got it, and I want to go do something for the headache, at very least
