1:10 am
meliae

1:10 am
nDanLia
roe wants to turn roe v wade; each is entitled to their decision and respect for it
1:10 am
rururocks
she is brain-washed however
1:10 am
o-o
there was a time when politics was kept out of the chat to avoid this type of discussion
1:11 am
loredana
whatever your american political desires are you have no right to include Babblers and Babbleland
1:11 am
GroovyKiwi
hey Bab im with you
1:11 am
o-o
I guess some would rather make this a forum for political debate
1:11 am
KnightTime
i hope you ran all this by Hurshy with her Obama icon
1:11 am
rururocks
We had a great discussion the other day and no one got worked up

Has everyone read the icon do you all agree that Knight is ok in saying Babble supports his political choice
1:15 am
meliae
and it is not sport it is called survival many of us do it for food as Palin does/did it is all in how you were raised
1:15 am
rururocks
I think hunting is a bit barbaric...
1:15 am
lynxxx
I'll be back later too...but hey guys, don't shove your opinions down other people's throats
1:15 am
o-o
do what you will I feel sorry for those who prize bad feelings above respect for others
1:15 am
loredana
Dont include Babblers in your own choice of politics
1:15 am
meliae
ruru my family would have starved to death had we not hunted when my father died, my brother hunted deer elk and bear to feed us
1:15 am
nDanLia
that's not what it says; its similar to hursh's & reflects their personal beliefs; says nothing about yours; grow up
1:16 am
o-o
you preaching to me dan]
1:16 am
loredana
Now you see why politics is a subject that doesnt belong in Babbleland.
1:17 am
Just1Mar
so when McCain kicks the bucket gee whiz Palin will be a great leader of the western superpower
1:17 am
herinfernallady

1:20 am
Just1Mar
it's a damn shame that canadians can't vote in the us elections cause whatever happens.....we are soooo affected
1:20 am
VolleymomDee
the other night's discussion never got personal; read through that and see how great discussion can occur withour tempers flaring... was a great lesson on intelligent sharing
1:20 am
rururocks
I feel people have their right to their opinions...but I don't really want this chat to be a propaganda forum for candidates
1:21 am
VolleymomDee
and ditto that just with canada
1:21 am
loredana
yes but tonight was not volley
1:21 am
VolleymomDee
totally agree lore

I do not agree with Knights chioce yet I did not personally attack him, which is how it should be
1:21 am
Pinikula
In my most humblest of opinions, as I watch the chat, it seems that the only thing that gives rise to disliking KT's icon is the line underneath: Babblers for McCain/Palin. I think the irritation stems from the grouping of all Babblers (frequenters here) who may have a different opinion. So, if the lower line were removed, there would be no harm done; just a personal opinion being posted. Is my understanding on track?
1:22 am
Just1Mar
it's also too amusing that we are having elections for Prime Minister in early Oct but who the f**k cares eh? lol
1:22 am
loredana
what nobody seems to understand is knight said BABBLERS SUPPORT HIS POLITICAL CHOICE NO1 HE IS WRONG THERE NO2 NO POLITICS IN BABBLELAND
1:22 am

1:23 am
loredana
sorry caps got stuck didnt mean to yell sorry
1:23 am
Just1Mar
she could be mayor of las vegas tho.....
1:23 am
VolleymomDee
guess I would take the side of freedom of speech; you can choose to ignore someone's icon; they are certainly entitled to their opinion
1:23 am
meliae
yes, Pini but I think and I could be wrong that he is saying that in support of others that support mccain not saying we all support him.
1:23 am
Pinikula
(sorry, nDan, I didn't see the other side - but the same should apply there, too)
1:23 am

funny, ruru - we're thinking we need to vacate THIS country if things don't go well in November...
1:24 am
Pinikula
it doesn't say "some" either.... but it still seems as tho that is the crux of this discussion...the "grouping" in general
1:25 am
Just1Mar
you groupies you
1:25 am
rururocks
Love jilli's country.. it is so gorgeous up there.. really
1:25 am
Pinikula

1:25 am
nDanLia
it is a common use of support that indicates a subgroup

nDanLia
when will you hear final decision on the disability status
2:29 am
herinfernallady
i should make dinner just cant be arsed
2:31 am
sprite
not sure yet, nDan. Waiting for the employment expert to get in touch and make an appt. It is taking longer for him/her to do so than we had expected. Can be bad news. Or can mean they will not even bother calling me up, because they cannot find any jobs I could do. That would be good news.
2:32 am
herinfernallady
Sprite i hate waiting

3:11 am
rururocks
for you that is
3:12 am
sprite
things keep stacking, that is the trouble. I so wish for a couple of month without new addictions to the stack.
3:13 am
rururocks
I hear you on that... that is the way it goes though doesn't it..
3:14 am
sprite
yup, it never rains...
So I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed my hubby won't fall ill as well... in that case we will have to find outside help and that is not easily available.
3:15 am
rururocks

3:15 am
sprite
yes it is, ruru
3:15 am
rururocks
yuck poor you... i hope you are getting rest ... or do you have to take care of everyone else?
3:17 am

rururocks
He cooks too?
3:21 am
sprite
for 2 weeks now.
Yes, my hubby cooks often. I cannot stand on my feet for very long, and especially not at the end of the day. When I cook, I usually make some oven dish in the morning.
3:21 am
rururocks

3:21 am
rururocks
He sounds like a keeper that one..
3:21 am

3:23 am
rururocks
I have back trouble.. it is so debiliatating sometimes
3:24 am
sprite
it is. I have tried to pretend nothing was wrong for many years, pushing myself all the time, and now I pay the price.
3:24 am
sprite
I hope you take care of yourself with that back!
3:26 am
rururocks
It is getting really late here.. I better put mrs ru to bed.. take care sprite... I admire your strength of character and humor...regarding my back.. I do take care, it flares up sometimes and I have to change my lifestyle to accomodate the injury... I do still get around okay most of the time though.. just bilging discs for me when they flare up.
3:26 am
sprite
*hugs* you are a good one, ruru :)
Be good to yourself and see you soon.
3:27 am
rururocks
I think I had the same thing though pushing myself with manual labor for many years (while in college) and now paying for not taking good care of myself (invincibility and youth and all etc)
3:28 am
sprite
it is always so easy to be wise when we look back, isn't it :)
3:28 am
rururocks
no kidding.. I wish I could redo many things in my life
3:28 am
sprite

4:45 am
redturtlehead
Sorry about that, but you do have babble to keep you company.
4:47 am
kje
i laid here trying to pretend to sleep for another couple hours, finally gave up and decided to babble about 430
4:48 am
bfsog
how come kje?
4:49 am
kje
usually babble is full of our european buddies at this time... where are the rest of you bf?
4:49 am
bfsog
i always wake up before my alarm, somehow sleep through my alarm and then wake up an hour late
4:49 am
bfsog
i have taken care of them all mu haha
4:50 am
kje
well, it does look that way - we may need to lock you up in the PB
4:50 am
redturtlehead
Do we know what the actuql icon of the day is?
4:50 am
kje
highschool mascot
4:51 am
redturtlehead
Oh well now that is a bummer, I dont recall having one.
4:51 am
kje
enjoying a cuppa and an orange... wish I had some bread
4:51 am
kje
red, we were the saints, kinda hard to illustrate
4:52 am
lilliann
hi all........wtg bf......... kje, your cookie recipe looks yummy, but what is a cup of shortening?
4:52 am
kje
LOL lill - that is how you know how old that recipe is... who uses shortening now/
4:53 am
kje
shortening is Crisco... trying to think of another word
4:53 am
redturtlehead
Apparently after a bit of research we had a moose for a mascot....there was one in the rec center, a head anyway.
4:53 am
redturtlehead
Hi Lilli!!!
4:53 am
kje
waht would europeans call shortening, red?
4:54 am
redturtlehead
fat? really thick white gloopy fat???
4:54 am
lilliann
oh right, well i am only a young un...lol
4:54 am
lilliann
like lard red?
4:54 am
lilliann
so, do i need it then kje?
4:55 am
redturtlehead
its lard, but from veggies not animals!
4:55 am
kje
here is the def - Shortening, in its most generic meaning, is any fat or oil that is used to make a short crust or dough
4:55 am
kje
clear as mud, no?
4:55 am
redturtlehead
you do need it Lilli, its is probably what makes the cookies soft and taste good.
4:55 am
lilliann
so lard, thank you both
4:56 am
kje
yes, but made from vegetable oils, not animal
4:56 am
kje
could probably substitute butter, though may spread a little more when baked
4:56 am
lilliann
right, i think me and the bairn might try out your recipe at the weekend as she's really into cooking at the moment
4:57 am
lilliann
i'll try both ways i think kje
4:58 am
kje
cool lill - I think you'll like them, all the spices make them smell wonderful and taste more robust than a lot of oatmeal raisin cookies
4:59 am
lilliann
i don't eat biscuits but hubby and daughter do and she loves anything with dried fruit in
4:59 am
dan2bit
hi everybody!

4:59 am
lilliann

5:00 am
kje

5:00 am
redturtlehead
Ok...I just took at peek at my schools web site, my how things have changed. THey actually have an actual mascot...something that really should be shunned based on our simple values.
5:00 am

Hi Dan.
5:00 am
lilliann
that's lovely that a recipe has gone through the generations
5:00 am
lilliann
we didn't have a school mascot
5:01 am
kje
I have an awesome ginger cookie recipe - ask flosey : ) she made them recently. if you want it, just drop me an email and I'll send it
5:01 am
redturtlehead
Apparently we had the moose, but I had no idea until now...golly.
5:02 am
kje
did you not do HS sports, red?
5:02 am
lilliann
i will kje, thanks
5:02 am
redturtlehead
I did do HS sports, we all were required to. I went to a small Quaker Boarding school in Pa
5:02 am
redturtlehead
They were rather against things like Mascots. But we had some kick A** teams...
5:03 am
kje
ahhh, I went to a tiny christian school - thus the saints
5:04 am
redturtlehead
I think the moose got adopted with locks on our bedrooms to make the school more appealing to the younger generation. We had a Moose head in the rec center who knew it was out mascot.
5:05 am
kje
phantom maudlin... I was soooooo sure
5:05 am
redturtlehead
Things like locks on doors, telephones....its changed the place. but yes for my high school days I lived in a dorm where we couldnt lock anything up, it was unquakerly.
5:05 am
kje
interesting... I kinda like it
5:06 am
lilliann
i nearly put that aswell kje...
5:06 am
lilliann
did youlike boarding school red?
5:09 am
kje
just saw a commercial for depression med - can I just say i HATE direct to consumer ads for medications
5:10 am
lilliann
whys that kje?
5:11 am
kje
it makes people believe they need drugs that they do not need... they are misleading
5:11 am
lilliann
i would prefer to get my medication from a dr than an ad....depending what it was for
5:11 am
kje
focus on results that are questionable in studoes and minimize risk
5:12 am
redturtlehead
I guess I liked it OK Lilli, I knew I was going so there wasnt much option.
5:13 am
lilliann
my father in law was given meds recently that were to help him sleep but when we read the side effects and what they were actully for it shocked us....they were suppose to be for bed wetting and depression
5:14 am
kje
well, you still have to get the med from your doc, but there is a lot of variables that go into medication choices for particular patients, and ads just confuse it... like everything else, patients often think they need the latest and most expensive, when more often than not, it isn't the best choice for them... advertisers know how to make you want something, whether it is a pizza or a drug... they get paid the big bucks for a reason
5:14 am
lilliann
and if my daughter was a bed wetter i wouldn't have given her any of them as the side effects were horrendous
5:14 am
redturtlehead
there are several meds with "official" uses that are also used for off reasons....
5:14 am
kje
see - that is one thing lill - why all of a sudden do more than half of patients think they all need a sleeping pill
5:15 am
redturtlehead
There is Flomax which was originally (I think )designed to help men with prostate problems, and now its widely used for people with kidney stones as well. it freaks out all the women who know it.
5:15 am
kje
I sometimes sleep poorly, everyone does, but I guarantee you, knowing what I do, I will not use a sleeping pill, yet my patients are convinced bythe commercials that they are benign
5:16 am
redturtlehead
I cant figure the sleeping pills out either kje.
5:16 am
lilliann
it wsa because he was suffering from alot of pain and the pain killers helped but not alot, but it was the dr's opinion to put him on them, only for a few weeks, he's stopped them now and can't sleep again...probably why people get addicted to these sort of tablets
5:16 am
kje
every treatment decision is a risk benefit analysis, but I think docs and patients minimize the risk until they have a bad side effect...
5:16 am
sandyloo
i think the way to go it hot milk and brandy
5:17 am
sandyloo
is not it
5:17 am
redturtlehead
I had a doctor add ambien to a patients orders and I said, Is this going to be PRN, and he said no, nohe is going to get it.... I thought that was insane. If I had been the floor nurse i would have let the patient refuse...
5:17 am
sandyloo
and i haven't had any yet!
5:17 am
kje
if the issue is pain, treat his pain with a long acting narcotic... don't start another pill that doesn't even address the underlying problem
5:17 am
lilliann
hi sandy
5:17 am
sandyloo
hi everyone
5:17 am
redturtlehead
morning Sandy.
5:18 am
lilliann
i don't sleep very well but i don't take tablets, i just read
5:18 am
redturtlehead
I have taken benadryl. but it makes me loopy.
5:18 am
kje
red - this is common, every time I do a ward month, I make my team go through and stop all the sleeping meds they wrote for without even thinking... we review the literature that clearly link them to falls, delirium, and hospital complications and they finally start to realize
5:19 am
kje
my mantra to them is... NOTHING you do is benign... everything has risk, so your job is to make sure that the benefit outweighs the risk
5:19 am
lilliann
the pain killers he was given make him sleepy, but then he's nodding off in the day so that's why he can't sleepat night
5:19 am
redturtlehead
I must admit to liking to give phenergan when I have a very difficult patient....
5:20 am
kje
LOL - of course you do red, but...
5:20 am
kje
there are def some people I would like to keep knocked out the entire time they are there - LOL
5:20 am
lilliann
what's that red...and can i have some for father in law as he can be difficult....lol
5:20 am
redturtlehead
But my patients are in a more controlled environs than the floor and i never give it nless the patient is vomiting and these days we give zofran....
5:21 am
redturtlehead
and on that note I must go take a shower and go meet the nutritional nazis.
5:21 am
kje
of course, then you are essentially chemically restraining them, and odne without thought by many docs
5:21 am
kje
and don't forget to salute
5:21 am
redturtlehead
LOL kje.... Heil Brocolli?
5:21 am

5:26 am
lilliann

5:27 am

yep, that can eat up space lill
5:27 am

5:27 am
periwinkle
Love rubber stamping and polymer clay
5:27 am
lilliann
well atleast i have a hobbie, he doesn't, but he wouldn't be a man if he didn't moan about something,...bless him!
5:28 am

my hobby right now is babble - LOL
5:28 am
lilliann
that was me peri, and sometimes i still move it into the lounge so i can watch tv aswell

I am not addicted to Babble, I can stop anytime 8-)
5:29 am

they are showing the elephant again - his name is tucker, he is 3 years old... he is helping clean up the zoo
5:29 am
lilliann
i've never used polymer clay peri, is it easy to work with?
5:29 am
periwinkle
does the elephant get paid
5:29 am
lilliann
of course you can peri...we believe you!!!! :-)
5:30 am
periwinkle
yes, lill, there are different kinds of polymer clay and some are easier to use than others.
5:30 am
kje
there is a tortoise sitting there watching him, you can see the tortoise move his head as tucker goes back and forth - wonder what he is thinking?
5:30 am
lilliann
ahh, how sweet kje
5:30 am
periwinkle
there are books for beginners with polymer clay and many websites that are helpful
5:31 am
kje
apparently tucker just started moving stuff around, and they decided they could use him... the zoo keeper said it is good exercise and better than having him holed up in his barn
5:31 am
lilliann
i might have a look later peri...that'll please hubby...not!!
5:32 am

polyer clay needs to be baked but it can be done in your home oven, lil

I agree peri - occasionally see people take offense on here at minor things... I just choose not to take things in the wrong way when 99.9% of the time you know it isn't meant that way... texting just doesn't come across the way intended sometime

Riding for the Disabled Association.
6:21 am
kje
do you drive them?
6:21 am
lilliann
is it children haz or adults aswell?
6:22 am
Haz1558
I help out once a week - I've managed to get myself the job of making tea and coffee. It's much less dangerous than side-walking which I used to do (walking beside the rider holding them on). We have a range of riders from physically handicapped children through to mentally handicapped children and adults.
6:22 am
kje
oh - horse back? i was thinking transport like auto
6:23 am
lilliann
i would love to ride a horse again but don't have the balance to stop on one, but my daughter loves to go
6:23 am
kje
that sounds fun though
6:23 am
Haz1558
Horse back riding, yes. I'm not much into horses, but I do know that they're heavy when they stand on your foot!
6:23 am
lilliann
when i worked with adults with special needs, some of them loved to ride and it was great to see
6:24 am
kje
ouch - experience talking?
6:24 am
Haz1558
It's very worthwhile - quite hard work sometimes, especially if people have to be lifted on, but the riders really enjoy it.
6:24 am
Haz1558
Yes - experience talking, kje. The horse planted itself on my foot but I couldn't yell in case I spooked it.
6:25 am
kje
I would think it would be freeing for them
6:25 am
Haz1558
For those in wheelchairs it's a new experience to be up above people -and it's great work for their muscles. For mentally handicapped it can help with discipline and with knowing that here's something they can do and often very well.
6:26 am
kje
we had a horse at camp that use to like to catch people standing by the paddock fence, then wonder over and lean up against them trapping them against the fence... he never hurt anyone, but it was weird... he definitely knew what he was doing
6:27 am
kje
so when you saw him coming, you moved
6:27 am
Haz1558
Each horse seems to have their own peculiarities, but they seem to respond to the chlldren and work to their needs.
6:28 am
kje
i bet they select the horses that are sensitive to that... we do the same with dogs and cats for pet therapy with our NH patients
6:28 am
kje
some of the animals just are more intuitive and seem to sense what each person needs
6:28 am
Haz1558
Yes, it's not every horse that's suitable - and they have to be matched in terms of weight as well.
6:28 am
kje
kinda like people actually
6:29 am
Haz1558
We depend on the public to keep us going (it's a charity) but we're fortunate in having a lot of support from local businesses. I'm the secretary of the group and get to write the begging letters.
6:31 am

OK, maybe I will try to catch a few more zzzz's - nice to see you lill - thanks for keeping me company when I couldn't sleep
6:31 am

Morning. Just heard on the news about a puppy that got shot "be accident" by some hunters. Not only was it a kids puppy, it was the puppy of a kid recovering from cancer. The father does not believe it was an accident, he had had run-ins with those hunters before. Boy, karma will really bite this guy one day

Im at the point where even counting tile values is not working.
9:32 am

especially frustrating on these short words
9:33 am
Haz1558
That's not much to look forward to when you're as bad at maths as I am.
9:33 am
FMitch
I don't believe that for a moment Haz!
9:34 am

I wasn't too bad at mental arithmetic but when it started getting theoretical my eyes had a funny habit of glazing over.

9:43 am
FMitch

9:43 am
Haz1558
Had I heard that Amy Winehouse was supposed to be involved, MM, or was that something else?
9:44 am
Haz1558
Yes, you'd think she'd appear to defend herself, wouldn't you?
9:45 am
FMitch
Oh I remember there was somthing in the press ages ago about Amy singing the new song but then there was all that rehab stuff.
9:45 am
movieman
It's a collaboration between Jack White & Alicia Keys, and it sounds pretty good
9:46 am

Oh dear Haz, can I borrow the brain cell for a moment please
9:53 am
Haz1558
I might need it though.
9:54 am
Haz1558
But seeing it was your birthday yesterday.....
9:54 am
FMitch
You're monopolising it which means I can't see a single new word
9:54 am
Haz1558
Focus. Focus.
9:55 am

Nope it's no good, haven't added a new word in half an hour. *give brain cell back to Haz*

Yahoo! She's arrived!

Good lord!

I think she's gone all cheerleader on us.

Afternoon Vi :)

Vicuna
Hello, sensible people! (Well, comparatively speaking, of course.)
9:57 am
FMitch
gone something thats for sure!
9:57 am
Haz1558
We're eminently sensible, Vi, you know that.
9:57 am
Vicuna
You refer to my wearing of the black and gold, Haz?
9:58 am
Vicuna
Good good, what sense have you to share with me today?
9:58 am
Haz1558
I do indeed, Vi, and I read your little ditty also. Was it chanted or (ahem) sung?
9:58 am
Vicuna
Chanted before field hockey games, of course. =D
9:58 am
Haz1558
It must have been rousing.
9:59 am
FMitch
Oh I loved playing hockey
9:59 am
Haz1558
Has anybody ever conducted studies to see whether cheerleading has any effect on the team's performance?
9:59 am
Vicuna
It was my favorite of our little cheers.
9:59 am
Haz1558
Did you play hockey in a Greek tunic or was that reserved for the movement to music, FMitch?
9:59 am
FMitch
Still got my hockey stick.... remembers we have had this conversation before and shuts up.
10:00 am
Vicuna
lol, FM. Some time when Haz isn't around we can reminisce at length about the joys of field hockey!
10:00 am
FMitch
Hockey in a greek tunic?? REally Haz, it would have clashed with the shin pads
10:00 am
Haz1558
Oh come on, FMItch. Today's the day for thinking back to those happy days of youth.
10:00 am
flosey
we took gymnastics in tunics with baggy bloomers
10:01 am
Vicuna
We wore little plaid kilts. And no shin guards!
10:01 am
Haz1558
You wore shin pads? What sort of wllting flower were you?
10:01 am
FMitch
Sigh, that was exactly what we had to ear flosey
10:01 am
Vicuna
Fabulous, flosey!
10:01 am
Haz1558
There you go. Flosey is joining in the spirit of the thing. Baggy bloomers sound the ticket.
10:01 am
FMitch
We were the St Trinians of the hockey pitch I'll have you know
10:02 am
Vicuna
Nails in your sticks?
10:02 am
Haz1558
And which were you? The little scruffbag or the long-limbed lovely? There never seems to be a middle ground with a St Trinian's girl.
10:02 am
FMitch
I still have a lump on my shin from a particularly vicious attack.
Shhh Vi, trade secrets :)
10:03 am
flosey
the hem measured 6" above the knee - measured while kneeling, and the bloomer leg could be pulled down below to look very high style!!!
10:03 am
Haz1558
Nowadays you'd sue, FMitch. Could a case still be made even though it happened SOOOOOOOOO long ago?
10:03 am
Vicuna
She was a long-limbed lovely, of course! The long-limbed is a known fact, and as it cannot exist without the lovely, that can be safely inferred.
10:03 am
FMitch
I was the big tall fat 'scruff bag' :)
10:03 am
periwinkle
Hello, FM! Happy Belated Birthday to YOU!
10:04 am
Vicuna
Yeah, I have serrated shins. Admittedly a few of the nicks are from tripping going up stairs...
10:04 am
Haz1558
You were really daring, flosey. You have pictures?

Awe thank you peri dear :)

Isn't it a mercy we didn't tote cameras around with us the way the girls do nowadays?
10:05 am
Haz1558
Hello peri!
10:05 am
flosey
it is indeed Haz
10:05 am
FMitch
We regularly had hem inspections and had to kneel on the floor
10:05 am
Vicuna
I find it interesting that pulling the bloomers below the knee was more daring than pushing them up.
10:05 am
periwinkle
When was your BD, FM. I didn't know. Saw earlier in the chat that it had already happened.
10:05 am
FMitch
It was yesterday peri
10:05 am
periwinkle
And you are 29 too, right, FM. The same age as me :-)
10:05 am
Haz1558
Did you kneel on the floor to beg for mercy?
10:05 am
FMitch
Absoulutely peri!
10:06 am
joshuavorbis
i turned 29 on saturday, incidentally
10:06 am
Vicuna
Happy birthday, joshuavorbis!
10:06 am
FMitch
If our hems did not touch the floor when kneeling, you would get a detention.
10:06 am
Haz1558
Look at that! All the best people are 29 it seems.
10:06 am
Vicuna
*feels left out*
10:06 am
FMitch
Actually I would settle for 39 :)
10:06 am
Haz1558
Could you not just bend down a little to make the grade (trying it out for myself)
10:07 am
flosey
wow, well I was long legged so was ok for me but some of the short gals did expose a little more
10:07 am
periwinkle
Vicuna, you can be 29 too
10:07 am
Haz1558
I'm left out as well, Vi. I'm not 29 either.
10:07 am
periwinkle
I'd settle for 39 too
10:07 am
FMitch
josh is the baby then!
10:07 am
Vicuna
But I don't wanna be 29! And as my age is a matter of public record on my bio, not much point in pretending! lol
10:08 am
Haz1558
You're right, FM. It doesn't work. I've tried the kneeling on floor experiment and if your hem isn't the right length you can't disguise it.
10:08 am
Vicuna
Although 29 was a nice vintage. Pre-kids... *goes into a dreamy revery*

The only other thing is to go back on the chat log and see if you can glean some stuff that way. Or you could accept FMitch's kind offer.

Cookies? The going rate is a kidney or bone marrow, at least.
10:19 am

It sounds scrummy peri
10:19 am

Well, but Haz, who would want a kidney when they could have cookies?
10:19 am

It is one of my favorite store bought cakes
10:20 am
FMitch
offal v cookies? not a hard decision!
10:20 am
Haz1558
Fair comment, but cookies are no good if you need a kidney.
10:20 am
Jen34
I will keep my kidney on hold AND make cookies. That's how grateful I am.
10:20 am
Vicuna
You can get by on one kidney. My dad's been doing it for years now.
10:20 am
Vicuna
He traded one for a batch fo cookies.
10:21 am
Jen34
Yes, if you need TWO kidneys, we may have to talk.
10:21 am
Haz1558
I know - it's pretty amazing. That's the beauty of giving a kidney, you get to keep one of your own.
10:21 am
Jen34
LOL Vi. You crack me up.

10:22 am

My kids have learned that if you have two of something it's proper to share the other with your sibling. But hopefully they won't ever have to apply the principle to kidneys.
10:22 am

it kills me when I go to the list, and there are obvious words that I've missed . . .
10:23 am
Haz1558
Let's hope not, Vi.
10:23 am
Haz1558
Yes, but don't tell anyone, Jen and they're none the wiser.
10:23 am
Vicuna
Cookies, on the other hand, are meant to be shared "One for me, one for sibling, two for Mama..."
10:23 am
Haz1558
It's quality control, Vi.
10:24 am
joshuavorbis
for me today, the obvious word i didn't see was ta4
10:24 am
Jen34
I mean . . . um . . . wow there are some hard words left on this list . . .
10:24 am
Vicuna
It never fails to amaze me, Jen, how seeing the two letter clue makes words pop out like toast, when without the list I'd stared at the same letters for ages and seen nothing.
10:24 am
Vicuna
Hmmm... apparently I still haven't seen it, joshua! lol *turns to grid*
10:25 am
Haz1558
Of course there are, Jen. Only hard words are ever left on the list - those and the ones that deliberately hide.

TY Haz & Vicuna. Thats fireworks for me.
10:26 am

My favorite is when I stare at a combination of letters, pronouncing it wrong in my head and sure it's utter nonsense. Then when I type it in and it's accepted I realize it was some perfectly normal word, like "soup" or something.
10:26 am
Vicuna
Yay for anike!
10:27 am

Congratulations anike.

10:28 am

soap is another one. SO AP. THAT's not a word!
10:28 am
FMitch
Vi I am really worried about Haz, we need to talk!
10:28 am
Vicuna
Goodbye, anike.
10:29 am
Vicuna
Why, because she doesn't believe in soap?
10:29 am
FMitch
because she is questioning the correct spelling of words!
10:30 am
Vicuna
Good point, FM. SHe is clearly in the throes of a crisis of faith.
10:30 am

Let me think about this. Aussie, when they say they want pictures of the corset, you DON'T have to appear in the official pictures in your corset. Just to set the record straight.

lol stid, please allow me to explain - it was in HS, an absolute MUST under tunic
10:37 am

Well, is the corset supposed to show as outerwear?

no, I wont be appearing in the official pictures in my corset, I have a top to go over the corset for the pictures, but who says I cant have pictures of me getting ready ?? Thats what my Sister wants, lotsa pictures to remember the WHOLE day !

And this is new how????
12:15 pm
stidmama
I was told when I was signing up for classes for this fall that in order to be moved off the waitlist and into the class I want that I have to pay the tuition BEFORE class starts.
12:15 pm
redturtlehead
Ouch. tuition is not cheap....
12:15 pm
stidmama
NOW I am told that in order to get the financial aid I need I have to be enrolled in a class before they will disburse funds.
12:16 pm
redturtlehead
What does the fine aid office say about this?
12:16 pm
stidmama
THIS means that I have missed the window of opportunity to sign up for an alternate program that would have worked if I don't get into the waitlisted class (which is my first choice).
12:16 pm
caitlyn
Can you get a short term loan stid
12:16 pm
stidmama
I was talking to financial aid... and they have the same rules for the short term loan as the regular aid.
12:16 pm
redturtlehead
I used to have that issue, I'd pay it on a Credit card, get my loan check and pay off the CC...not the most graceful...
12:16 pm

I have seen that before red. among the "sins" of the past two presidential elections are an unwillingnesss of this administration to encourage all states to get their acts together. We need a new voting rights act!!!!! I realize it's not necessarily this admin's fault, but good leadership should have addressed this glowing inadequacy of our democracy

just to confuse you, Salt Spring Island is one of the Gulf Islands, just north of the San Juans, between Vancouver and Vancouver Island, at the southern end of which is Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, and none of them is very near to Vancouver, Washington, which is in the state of Washington and not much to do with Washington, DC, the capital of the USA :)
11:21 pm
saanichcat
the cap of bc is vuctoria a beautiful city but the lands outside are the best, the west coast
11:21 pm
