3:21 am

westford

3:22 am

meliae

ok well you take those, and you glue a tiny bead on the top for lift handle, and then when you make your goodies you take a button and cover it with a bit of paper to hide the holes, then you put that dome over the top

3:22 am

3:22 am

Johnnie get your gun, get you gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run, on the run, on the run,
Hear them calling you and me;
Every son of Liberty
Hurry right away, no delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad to have had such a lad
Tell your sweetheart not to pine,
To be proud her boy's in line.

The name Chloe derives from the Greek Khloe, young green shoot, and is related to khloros, greenish-yellow; hence chlorophyll, which mean "green leaf" in Greek.

herinfernallady

3:45 am

herinfernallady

Thanks Niks. He was sick for a will

3:45 am

niksforjaff

meliae

that is great Bf that you have that trust in your female friends

3:48 am

niksforjaff

dont tell mum what im telling you but i would like a bf but im sick of lies and being messed around

3:48 am

herinfernallady

BFS i bet the girls just treat you like one of the girls

3:48 am

meliae

with men you just have to be up front and honest with them, they dont read between the lines, you be brutally honest with them and they will be brutally honest right back, that is the way they are wired lol

3:49 am

niksforjaff

yeah-i think women are very sly and you truely know who your real friends are when men are around

3:50 am

bfsog

herin - i dont want to talk about that night me and lipstick got up close and personal!

3:50 am

niksforjaff

mel..i have done all that and it seems to bite me back

3:51 am

niksforjaff

so i put up the old barrier and wonder what men really want and do they deserve my trust at all

herinfernallady

BFs that is funny.

3:56 am

meliae

one of my best freinds is the most gorgeous guy you ever saw in your life and he was miserable for years because he could not find a good woman, his looks were his downfall, he finally found a girl got married and will be having his 18th wedding anniversary soon, and she was his best friend's cousin
they ended up falling in love it was sooooooo romantic

3:56 am

bfsog

friends are great to have around

3:57 am

meliae

3:57 am

niksforjaff

herinfernallady

Yes hes cool as he knows that my male friends are considered gay in my book

3:58 am

Atalante

awwww mel, that's lovely

3:58 am

bfsog

especially when you catch up with one of them who you havent seen for a while and you reminisce all your memories with them

3:59 am

meliae

that is where trust in a relationship comes in BF

3:59 am

bfsog

huh?

herinfernallady

herinfernallady

Hi Ata

4:02 am

kkiln

4:02 am

meliae

I have had more problems with the girlfriends of my male friends that I have had with my husband or boyfriends, its the females that get all jealous and weird

4:02 am

bfsog

words must be at least 4 characters, kkiln :

4:03 am

niksforjaff

its good to include your hubby in friend catch ups and make him feel included..well im guessing

4:03 am

herinfernallady

I get really issed off with chicks that complain that their partner role plays or what ever they do when they did it before you met them.

4:04 am

4:09 am

niksforjaff

yeah-thats a line a lot of women cross..you still should repect your partner and doing things alone with the opp sex can start to cause probs

4:09 am

bfsog

with me, i see how good we are when we are together, so i completely trust my gf. if she wants to see her friends, be they male or female then its no problem. at the end of the day we both have our own lives. its me she comes home to every day!

4:40 am

LoriP

G'd morning Babblers! Awesome grid, right up to 118 words....

4:41 am

Haz1558

Hello there!

4:41 am

LoriP

G'd morning Haz.

4:41 am

Haz1558

How can you say it's an awesome grid and that yesterday's was poopy?

4:42 am

Haz1558

Have you always been a contrary person, Lori? have you ever thought of getting help with it?

4:42 am

LoriP

Took me all day to finish yesterday's without the list. I don't see that happening today. Lickety's already whispering sweet nothings in my ear.

4:43 am

LoriP

I don't think of it as contrary per sÃ©. More like torturously conflicted and inconsistent.

4:43 am

Haz1558

Ah well. If you could finish a grid without a list, it shows that it was a nice grid.

4:44 am

Haz1558

Was that the sort of thing the teachers wrote on your school reports?

4:45 am

LoriP

Cleverly worded things like "could do better if she wasn't so difficult to work with". that sort of thing.

4:46 am

Haz1558

You do realise that teachers over here are no longer allowed to write anything negative, in case it damages self-esteem. The worst pupils go home with blank reports.

4:47 am

LoriP

We have the same uninformative teachers comments as well. Wouldn't wanna' hurt the little darlin's esteem.

4:47 am

Haz1558

I loved the comment made by one of my daughter's friend's teacher 'J shows great enthusiasm but none of it is directed towards the study of physics'

4:48 am

LoriP

Things like "has a creative way of responding" = "doesn't raise hand to answer questions".

4:48 am

LoriP

lolol Haz. Yup you need a secret decoder ring to figure out teacher comments.

4:49 am

Haz1558

I wonder if they have a secret code in the way that doctors have?

4:50 am

LoriP

I'm starting to think so.

4:52 am

LoriP

I wish there was a t in this grid.....

4:52 am

NonoNanette

good morning babblers :)

4:53 am

Haz1558

We once went to an open evening at the school to hear about our second daughter's progress. No problem in the subjects she was good in, but when we spoke to her biology teacher, his first words were 'Your daughter should be in television - great personality!' He continued in this vein for a while until we asked gently about her progress in biology. He just smiled apologetically.

4:53 am

Haz1558

Good morning Nono.

4:54 am

mrpresident

hi all :) this looks way too hard for an easy night in.

4:54 am

NonoNanette

hi mrp!

4:54 am

Haz1558

Hello mrp - I think it's a sticky grid.

4:55 am

mrpresident

hi nono :)

4:55 am

mrpresident

hi haz :) looks narky to me... might give it a miss

4:56 am

Haz1558

It's certainly not a quick grid for me.

4:56 am

LoriP

G'd morning Nono, mrP. Haz, it's the same here, unless you nail 'em right off the bat to avoid the coded talk.

4:56 am

mrpresident

funny enough, I can 'see' the biggies, but the little ones might be my demise

4:56 am

LoriP

It's a sneaky grid, so far at least.

4:57 am

mrpresident

hi lori :)

5:00 am

mrpresident

ok, just so I can have some fun tonight... can I clue the biggies I see?

5:00 am

mrpresident

this is without checking they are real unfortunately

5:01 am

Haz1558

Right. I'm going to take a break, walk the dog and do some errands (none of which involve Marigolds!) and come back with fresh eyes.

5:01 am

Haz1558

Try them in lickety's without putting them into babble.

5:01 am

LoriP

Later Haz. I'm gonna' dive back in to the grid for a bit. Later mrP!

5:02 am

Haz1558

Okay, off I go. Bye!

Sorry to have missed you too!

5:06 am

lynxxx

ugh, on top of everything else - the flu! poor possum

5:06 am

mrpresident

oh lynxx, it was the nasty one that the pilgrams left behind for us... 3 weeks sick as a dog!

5:07 am

lynxxx

pilgrams?

5:08 am

mrpresident

allegedly, it came from the US and has spread like wildfire across the world, or so the news tells us

5:10 am

NonoNanette

sorry to hear you've been ill, mrp. Flu season here hasn't started yet

5:10 am

mrpresident

oooh, I found an eye piece! well, a bit of the eye anyway

Yes, allegedly, the pilgrams from the world youth day were infected with a bad virus, started in the US and went through all of the travellers, who then returned to their countries and infected all others

5:10 am

NonoNanette

they were just talking about flu shots on the news its getting close to that time

5:11 am

lynxxx

oh, those pilgrams!

5:11 am

mrpresident

autumn and spring are very difficult times indeed nono! it seems to be getting worse and worse... don't know what we will do when antibiotics don't work anymore.

5:12 am

mrpresident

and flu shots have become very serious now, especially for the elderly.
This particular variety of flu turns into pnuemonia fast!

5:12 am

lynxxx

lo5.14 that would be?

5:14 am

mrpresident

lynxx, eyeglass used by jewellers?

5:21 am

herinfernallady

Hi

5:22 am

lynxxx

hi

5:23 am

herinfernallady

My 2 cents on being sick and antibiotics is that we use them to much on a common virus (which wont be killed by them)

5:23 am

herinfernallady

Hands Juice and CHicken soup to the Pres

5:23 am

NonoNanette

hi Herin

5:24 am

antibiotics work, but only in long long long term when really very sick. unfortunately, they make you even sicker and vunerable

Hi Babblers.....Peri, I have a question....how do you send Reiki and how does one receive it?

6:15 am

periwinkle

YW, NP

6:15 am

herinfernallady

Hi Chiley

6:15 am

Scrabbler

She is experiencing generalized muscle weakness and it is noticeable. It is likely related to one of her meds.

6:15 am

elder

Scrabs, sorry to hear that Mary is not so good, as she was doing so well and fighting with the support form yourself , her family and others .

6:16 am

herinfernallady

Scrabbler

Carlee, life is good then!!

6:16 am

chiley, I just think of the person I am sending it to, the person receiving it does not have to do anything

6:16 am

6:17 am

elder

Carleekat, that is good to hear, and you manage to do so much:)

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Mary's MRI on Saturday showed no return of cancer. It is believed that the weakness is secondary to one or more of her meds. Her spirit and resolve to fight remain strong!

6:51 am

Haz1558

Good afternoon again.

6:52 am

FMitch

Well hello Haz, it's been an age *grin*

6:52 am

KatieMcG

Hi Haz

6:52 am

Haz1558

Hello Katie! - yes, FM, simply ages.

6:52 am

FMitch

I must revisit Alan Bennet

6:53 am

Haz1558

I agree about the Talking Heads. A perfect marriage of good writing and good acting.

6:54 am

FMitch

Patricia Routledge's one particularly sticks in my mind

6:54 am

KatieMcG

So rare that it comes together. The Patricia Routledge one was fantastic

6:54 am

Haz1558

Yes, all stiff upper lip and terribly vulnerable underneath.

6:55 am

KatieMcG

very moving

6:55 am

elder

I think he also wrote or co wrote the script for The Madness of King George.

6:55 am

KatieMcG

Phantom: damsel

6:55 am

Haz1558

He did, elder, you're right.

6:56 am

Haz1558

And again, a fine actor did the work justice.

6:56 am

JMann

Patricia Routledge actually did three of the Talking Head segments. And yes, Alan Bennett wrote the play The Madness of King George IV, which was adapted into the movie

6:57 am

elder

Yes....all that talent. I would think if you were an actor you would be queuing to be involved in his works .

6:57 am

Dorens

and he was in beyond the fringe ages ago with jonathan miller, peter cook and dudley moore, which i saw on broadway

6:57 am

FMitch

I am def missing something with this grid as I have yet to score an 8 (not fishing for clues btw)

Ohh I only remember one of them JM, must do some googling later

6:57 am

sheneigne

morning! could someone tell me how many in this ugly grid today?

6:57 am

Dorens

208

6:58 am

FMitch

208 today

6:58 am

KatieMcG

208 shen

6:58 am

sheneigne

ty

6:58 am

JMann

They changed the title of the play for the movie because Hollywood execs thought that people might think it was the fourth installment of a series of movies and not go see it because they hadn't seen the first three

6:58 am

FMitch

Hi Dorens

6:58 am

sheneigne

puns

6:58 am

sheneigne

spun

6:58 am

sheneigne

sorry

6:58 am

elder

..and his collaboration with others ' Beyond the Fringe in the early days.

6:58 am

Haz1558

And do you think the Holywood execs were right?

6:58 am

Dorens

hi fmitch. and bye... need to be in school by 8:30 (which is why i am always sneaking here in the morning... should be out the door bye now)

6:58 am

JMann

FMitch - you are probably thinking of the one where she talks about the foot doctor

6:59 am

elder

Jman, yes they did. Amazingly so.

6:59 am

FMitch

Umm the one I'm thinking of is where is is leaving her house after being widowed I think

7:00 am

JMann

ah, they all are good. She has a wonderful way with his words!

7:00 am

Haz1558

Soldiering on was that one.

7:00 am

elder

Judi Dench, was in one of the Talking Heads ?

7:01 am

Haz1558

There was also one where she wrote letters willy-nilly.

7:02 am

elder

they should televise them again.

7:02 am

FMitch

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talking_H
eads_(series)

7:02 am

elder

FMitch.. your on the ball.

7:03 am

elder

take off some of the rubbish and replace with great dramas, as his are.

7:03 am

JMann

Haz - I'm afraid that the Hollywood execs might have actually had a cause to be concerned about that

7:03 am

FMitch

Had to have a quick delve :)

7:03 am

Haz1558

Judi Dench did a two-person play but it wasn't in the Talking Head series.

7:04 am

FMitch

BRB

7:04 am

kje

that's a lot of Es

7:05 am

elder

Haz, thanks for the clarification , I thought she was in there somewhere.

7:05 am

Haz1558

It was called Two in Torquay (isn't google great?)

7:05 am

JMann

He really has a way with realistic dialogue, and so many good actors have lined up to do his work - Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Patricia Routledge

7:05 am

FMitch

Hi kje

7:06 am

elder

yes :)

7:06 am

FMitch

When did you discover Alan Bennett JM ?

7:07 am

carleekat

who is alan bennet?

7:07 am

JMann

Well, I actually work in theatre, and studied it in school, so his name came up. But my mom is actually from England, so she knew him from his Beyond the Fringe days.

7:07 am

Haz1558

An English playwright and actor.

7:08 am

carleekat

okay...diving back in then..nothing to contribute...so say nothing at all :o)

7:08 am

FMitch

Ah! am delighted to see he travels well :)

7:09 am

FMitch

Whereabouts in England are the family roots?

7:09 am

FMitch

darn pone ...

7:09 am

JMann

my mom grew up in Brighton, but my uncle now lives in Pyrford

7:10 am

elder

I think he has also been offered a Knight Hood and other accolades and refused.

7:11 am

JMann

I think I heard that as well, elder

7:12 am

FMitch

Pyrford in Surrey?

7:13 am

JMann

7:13 am

7:14 am

FMitch

Well ain't that a thing, know it well, my ex lived there

7:14 am

Haz1558

Jeremy Kyle?

FMitch

Going back ages I had a bar job in the Pyrford Social Club.

7:37 am

AsGreen

7:37 am

Uneaixoise

tx!

7:39 am

JMann

Une - the five 8's are AL 8/45 (a plural of the AL 7/32) = everything + what birds eat (or a poppy **** muffin)

7:39 am

Uneaixoise

tx so much!!!!!!!!

7:39 am

AsGreen

this is a killer grid!

7:41 am

Uneaixoise

morning, annie!!

7:41 am

Anniebrook

Hi Une and Green....that nasty, huh?

7:42 am

JMann

EN 8/50 = the past tense of the EN 6/21 = the covering of fake teeth or a type of paint = then make it past tense for the 8/50, and then make the 6/21 plural for the EN 7/32

7:42 am

Uneaixoise

well . . . 112 so far w/out the list . . . not too hot, eh? LOL

7:42 am

AsGreen

ummm, well, I'm a wimp

7:42 am

AsGreen

I have 61 so far...... but debating the list already..... not yet

7:43 am

Uneaixoise

7:43 am

AsGreen

I leave in 20 mins Annie...

7:43 am

Anniebrook

thanks, JM

7:44 am

JMann

there are two EN 8/60's = something you send a letter in the mail in, and then the plural of something that wraps around

7:44 am

Uneaixoise

oh, good grief, thanks, JM :-)

7:45 am

AsGreen

ooh, those were GOOD Jmann! tx!!

7:45 am

Uneaixoise

frantic dog needing to go pee--BRB!

7:45 am

AsGreen

haven't gotten that uv6 yet!

7:46 am

Anniebrook

thanks again, JM

7:48 am

JMann

the last 8 is a DE 8/50 which is the plural of the DE 7/36 = think of the painter Ta*****-Lautrec. I think it means to get rid of bugs, like lice

7:49 am

AsGreen

Jmann - you rock! And our school is dealing with that now! lol

7:52 am

JMann

appropriately timed then!

7:54 am

Uneaixoise

thank you thank you thank you!!

7:54 am

JMann

AsG - for the UV 6 = U + a snake's bite is V*nom***

7:54 am

JMann

it's UV + three vowels + the ending of a plural word

7:55 am

AsGreen

how did you get that? lol - thanks!

7:55 am

JMann

monkey type

7:56 am

JMann

harpjane

9:05 am

Judi

Average morning, y'all. Can't believe ve4/7 is accepted, but "velo" isn't. It's a root. *hands on hips*

9:07 am

harpjane

i tried it too judi

9:10 am

Judi

I'm feeling lots of bad vibes this a.m. One of my good friends just broke up with her boyfriend of 3+ years. The woman I work with is getting divorced. One of our detectives was just ranting about how his wife and MIL are conspiring to drive him insane. Love is not in the office air!

9:11 am

Judi

Damn. Sorry. Used a word. *slinks to penalty box*

9:12 am

FMitch

Awe Hugs for Judi, there's plenty of comfort food in the PB :)

9:12 am

Judi

*nibbling chocolate covered sardines*

9:13 am

FMitch

eeeew but if thats' what makes you happy???

9:13 am

FMitch

Actually you used two words *grin*

9:13 am

Judi

Just kidding. Fish for penalty, chocolate for comfort.

9:15 am

Judi

*groan*. I'll shut up now and look for words.

9:15 am

FMitch

But as to the essense of yr post must be hard to stay upbeat with that much going on so close :(

9:17 am

Judi

I'm not much better, FM. I was sniveling about my dying cat the other day. Sigh. Just a bad patch all around.

9:18 am

FMitch

Oh Judi! Hugs all round then!!

9:18 am

Judi

Ty, FM. :) Feeling better. Nothing beats Babble lo4/7.

9:19 am

FMitch

*clears throat and stffens upper lip* :)

9:19 am

Judi

Here, here.

9:22 am

FMitch

Seeing as it's only you and I here *looks around*?
Sorry to hear about your cat, is it age or ... ?

9:23 am

Haz1558

Shift over - I'm here as well.

9:23 am

VolleymomDee

howdy all

9:23 am

FMitch

Ouch - did you have to shove quite so hard?
Hi Volley

9:24 am

Judi

My 8 year old kitty has congestive heart failure (brought on by a previous high fever from thyroid problems). He's on meds and doing okay for now, but his days are very numbered at this point.

9:24 am

Haz1558

God gave me elbows for a reason.

9:24 am

VolleymomDee

oops didn't mean to hurt ya fm

9:24 am

Haz1558

Hello Volley.

9:24 am

FMitch

LOL I think it was Haz that shoved Volley

9:24 am

VolleymomDee

hi haz!

9:25 am

Judi

Oh, piffle. I used another word.

9:25 am

Haz1558

We'll forgive you, Judi.

9:25 am

FMitch

Awe sorry to hear that Judi (not that you used another word of course)

9:26 am

Hugabugs

Hi Dee

9:26 am

Judi

Thanks, FM. I am a wreck. He is my baby. Don't know what I'll do without him.

9:27 am

FMitch

I can't stiffen my upper lip anyore Juid *tremble quiver*

9:27 am

Haz1558

Judi, have they given you any time frame for his treatment?

9:27 am

FMitch

Hi Hugs

9:27 am

Judi

You and me both. Change of subject is in order.

9:27 am

Hugabugs

Hi FM

9:28 am

Haz1558

Okay, who will we talk about instead?

9:28 am

FMitch

How lovely this grid is? not!

9:28 am

Judi

Haz - vet said he could go any time. Condition usually causes sudden death. Which is preferable to a slow, lingering one I suppose. As much as I love to see him when I get home every afternoon, I sort of dread walking into the house - knowing what I might find.

9:28 am

Haz1558

This grid is a stinker. I'm telling you, someone has hypnotised me today with stupidity.

9:29 am

VolleymomDee

I hate this grid; or I am just blind...

9:29 am

Haz1558

That's tough, Judi - I sympathise.

9:29 am

flosey

good morning everyone

9:29 am

Hugabugs

Hi flosey

9:29 am

FMitch

To quote LoriP - "This is a stoopid grid"

9:29 am

Judi

Ty, ty. I'm coping (barely).

9:29 am

Haz1558

Good morning flosey.

9:29 am

FMitch

Morning flosey

9:29 am

VolleymomDee

ditto that haz HUG hugs!!!!

9:30 am

Haz1558

Okay, Judi, we won't dwell on it.

9:30 am

Hugabugs

How are you Dee?

9:30 am

FMitch

not that I support calling grids stoopid, but ...

9:31 am

Hugabugs

this one is a toughie for me

9:31 am

Haz1558

It's a barely civilised grid. Does that sound better?

9:31 am

VolleymomDee

haven't blown away yet LOL... sitting here with a great cup of coffee waiting for my alleve to kick in. How are you hug?

9:31 am

FMitch

Personally I blame the eeee's, I have a crick in my neck thanks to them

9:32 am

Judi

Must pop off for a bit. Boss, project, yada yada yada.

9:32 am

Haz1558

See you later, Judi.

9:32 am

FMitch

Bye Judi

9:32 am

Hugabugs

Doing pretty good. My Mom gets back today and I'll be picking her up at the airport. She's been gone for 3 wks

9:33 am

VolleymomDee

bet you missed her. Was she on vacation?

9:34 am

Hugabugs

I sure have. Yes, she's been at her sister's place in Ontario

9:34 am

VolleymomDee

Aww... bet the two sisses had a great time. I was really disappointed that my brother couldn't join us this time.

9:34 am

FMitch

Haz!!! yr icon has only just show up as not being the glittery one - LOL

9:35 am

Haz1558

I thought George deserved a showing.

9:35 am

FMitch

Well not the Spangle glittery one anyway :)

9:35 am

FMitch

I am going to have to F5 to see him properly

9:36 am

Haz1558

Isn't he handsome?

9:37 am

FMitch

I have to admit that pic does have a certain je n'e sai quoi (sp)

9:37 am

Hugabugs

My aunt will be 81 next month, so every visit there is always special for Mom

9:38 am

Haz1558

I thought it would help to keep spirits up with this<--contemptible grid.

9:38 am

VolleymomDee

I bet. Is her sis pretty healthy?

9:39 am

niksforjaff

hey all..pls clue for sl,7

9:39 am

Haz1558

9:40 am

VolleymomDee

There is something about the salt/pepper hair.... sigh

9:40 am

niksforjaff

9:40 am

Hugabugs

she's had a heart attack a little while ago, high colesterol and blood pressure...

9:40 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

9:41 am

niksforjaff

my minds gone

9:41 am

VolleymomDee

must have recovered pretty well then?

9:41 am

FMitch

I wonder if I do the I spy with my little eye act again Ata will suddenly appear?

9:41 am

Hugabugs

yes, she has, thank God

9:41 am

AsGreen

hello again... oh haz, we're tired from this morning's drills!

9:41 am

AsGreen

haz - LOVE the updated profile - every bit of it!

9:42 am

Hugabugs

All my aunts are in their 8o's now

9:42 am

Haz1558

Hello As. THAT's why this grid is so hard. I'm physically exhausted.

9:42 am

FMitch

AsG - any chance I could join up to this work out on my behalf?

9:42 am

Haz1558

Thank you, As. Others will tell you that I'm tolerably fond of the man.

9:42 am

AsGreen

as in, by proxy, FM?

9:42 am

FMitch

*ignores the fact that AsG sould be sent to the PB*

9:42 am

FMitch

Yes!

9:43 am

VolleymomDee

my mom's sis' all lived until their late 90's; she was the only one who died "young" at 74

9:43 am

AsGreen

I know you dig Clooney, I me4/5t the prose about babbling

9:43 am

Haz1558

Does that mean that the effects of proxy exercise might be diminished?

9:43 am

Hugabugs

My mom will be 74 in Dec

9:43 am

flosey

could I please have a clue for ne7?

9:44 am

Haz1558

Ah, I get you now, As. I am of the old school and sometimes suffer with sore hands from sitting on them.

9:44 am

AsGreen

duh, that was my last word that I entered before going to workout! sorry fm - nice catch

9:44 am

FMitch

Oh no - I will offer to do something that will keep the energy going - say "Needlework perhaps" *giggle*

9:44 am

Haz1558

ne7 - plural (important) fate/destiny

9:44 am

Hugabugs

All of Mom's sibs are still alive and kicking... doing fairly well healthwise

9:44 am

AsGreen

FM, you'll have to negotiate w/Haz. I'm happy to share though!

9:44 am

flosey

thanks Haz

9:45 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, flosey.

9:45 am

AsGreen

I guess that makes me "new school"?

9:45 am

FMitch

It must be great to have big families with many 'oldies' still alive

9:45 am

Haz1558

Anybody who would offer to do any sort of needlework deserves to have exercise by proxy.

9:45 am

Hugabugs

I so enjoy their company... I jump on any chance I get to spend with my aunts/uncles

9:46 am

BzznBea

I take it you don't do any sort of needlework, Haz?

9:46 am

Haz1558

As, you can be new but have old school values. We have a saying that if somebody is sensible then they possess 'a titter of wit'.

9:47 am

Haz1558

Bzzn. I avoid needles and thread as much as possible.

9:47 am

FMitch

Haz's skills are directed to other areas!

9:47 am

AsGreen

pehaps just a titter - but I speak my mind - which gets me in trouble here and there - and, once in awhile, respect!

9:47 am

flosey

Fireworks

9:47 am

AsGreen

yay flosey! wtg!!

9:47 am

Hugabugs

congrats flosey

9:47 am

Haz1558

Knitting I can tolerate, sewing is pure torture. Husband is a dab hand at sewing on buttons etc.

9:48 am

Haz1558

Congratulations flosey!

9:48 am

AsGreen

I'm going to the list....

9:48 am

FMitch

Congrats flosey!!

9:48 am

BzznBea

WOOHOO! FLOSEY!

9:49 am

Haz1558

As, the beauty of the log - tolerance of other people's foibles etc - can sometimes be its downfall as well.

9:49 am

FMitch

Indeed!

9:49 am

BzznBea

I don't know what I would do if I didn't know how to crochet or embroidery.

9:50 am

Boobear

9:50 am

FMitch

9:50 am

BzznBea

9:51 am

BzznBea

I understand that, Haz.

9:51 am

Boobear

Hi to whomever else I missed

9:51 am

AsGreen

hi boo

9:51 am

FMitch

Ah but your culinary skills Haz !!

9:52 am

flosey

9:52 am

Haz1558

9:53 am

chiley

Hi Babblers....are we out of videos or does it just not work anymore?

9:54 am

Haz1558

9:54 am

FMitch

chiley

He is SO happy. He is providing daddy day care 3 days a week.

9:56 am

Haz1558

I love to hear good father stories - so often men are kind of dismissed as being useless - I think fatherhood can be wonderful for both father and child.

9:57 am

FMitch

It's just such a beautiful/simple compsition.

9:57 am

BzznBea

It's sad whne fathers do not take an interest while children are infants.

9:58 am

chiley

He is an aerial photog and has a friend with a studio. She came to the house and made lots of beautiful portraits.

10:36 am

VolleymomDee

I'm sitting on 3rd floor with patio door open, listening to surf/wind and watching it through the window w/o getting blown away. I can always find something to entertain me. FM, we are on vacation in the Outer Banks for a week; then to Pittsburgh for 2 days, then back to Indiana on Monday

BzznBea

Yes, that one has bugged me too, hursh.

10:39 am

FMitch

I was about to move to a place near the coast and then all hell broke out in the financial sector and we all know the rest of the story from there.

10:39 am

FMitch

Byeee bf

VolleymomDee

10:40 am

BzznBea

I'm like you, Dee. The first time I saw the ocean, I knew that was "home".

10:41 am

FMitch

Yup, but sigh!

10:41 am

VolleymomDee

tough to even describe in words, isn't it Bea?

10:41 am

BzznBea

It is.

10:42 am

BzznBea

I remember leaving and I could not stop crying.

10:42 am

FMitch

Oh it's just a feeling of rightness and of coming home. The bonus is watching the seasons change in all their glory.

10:42 am

BzznBea

And me from a landlocked state.

10:43 am

VolleymomDee

I felt similarly when we went to Niagara Falls.. sounds corny, but these stellar creations cry out God's majesty and "hugeness" when I look at them. I just keep thinking, "wow"...

10:44 am

VolleymomDee

I keep thinking of the verses that say He put the stars in the sky and named them... then I see these huge waves rolling in.... amazing

10:46 am

hurshy

george macdonald wrote a great line about seeing the waves and the sun glinting on the ocean and thinking about the nature of a Being who "fringed the garment of his thought" with such a display

10:46 am

hurshy

i thought that was an amazing way of putting it.

10:46 am

VolleymomDee

oh, my, that gave me goosebumps

1:25 pm

BzznBea

You can use them for toothpicks for the meatballs.

1:25 pm

1:27 pm

nancethefan

even onion powder?

1:27 pm

nancethefan

i use vidalias when possible - if they are not available, i always use sweet yellow onions

1:28 pm

nDanLia

yup, loved fr onion soup as child, but have to avoid now

1:28 pm

nancethefan

that's yummy, too. do they disagree with you, or are you allergic to them now?

1:29 pm

nDanLia

they say 25% of population actually has at least an onion sensitivity, but most don't realize it - I get severe abdominal cramps w/in hour after anything w/ onions

1:29 pm

nancethefan

i've never tried them with garlic, but it would be worth a try - they are really great

1:30 pm

nDanLia

what's rice/meat ratio

1:31 pm

nancethefan

i usually use two pounds of hamburger & then just pour rice in to cover the meat - i make enough for two days - they are even better the next.

1:31 pm

nancethefan

you want enough rice to thicken the soup

1:32 pm

nancethefan

yes they are - i brushed "save a puzzle" on the back of each. then took enough tin foil to cover the back & pressed it down firmly. now they won't come apart & are all ready to be framed.

1:51 pm

nancethefan

1:51 pm

joshuavorbis

ty cadfan

hi monkey

7:31 pm

lil*monkey

i still have 97 to go... don't think i will finish. I haven't done my paperwork yet for today

7:31 pm

lil*monkey

question for anyone to answer: what would I wear to a wedding held at 11am on a Sunday ????

7:32 pm

lil*monkey

and it's in October

7:33 pm

cybernan

dress or suit -- what kind of temperatures?

7:33 pm

lil*monkey

well, the temp could be in the 50s, 60s, 70s or perhaps low 80s

7:34 pm

redturtlehead

Dress with a sweater added on if its cold.

7:34 pm

lil*monkey

what color? it seems too somber to wear black at 11 on a sunday morn.. that seems like a funeral

7:34 pm

cybernan

or a wrap of some sort

7:35 pm

cybernan

I certainly wouldn't wear black to a wedding -- but maybe that's just my age showing!

7:35 pm

reparteena

you would wear a suit or a nice dress (nothing fancy) with a wrap

7:35 pm

lil*monkey

i would wear black if it's an evening or formal-dress wedding

7:36 pm

reparteena

thry will probably serve brunch or lunch so it's very toned down from a late afternoon or evening function

7:36 pm

cybernan

It used to be an insult to the bride or groom to wear black to a wedding, but I realize that now even the bridal party is sometime dressed in black -- still can't get by that one!

7:36 pm

lil*monkey

i'm leaning toward a dress with sweater

7:37 pm

redturtlehead

dress with sweater...its the way to go.

7:37 pm

lil*monkey

yes, the last wedding i went to had black bridemaids dresses... strapless

7:37 pm

pam

floral print with sweater...

7:37 pm

reparteena

anyone and everyone can wear black--you be the sta dout with a muted color or sedate print!

7:37 pm

lil*monkey

OK thanks all for suggestions

7:37 pm

reparteena

standout!

7:37 pm

periwinkle

I went to a wedding a few years ago where the bridesmaids wore black!! I didn't like it but no one asked my opinion before hand :-)

7:38 pm

lbdawger

a black on black wedding would be very formal if done right. otherwise it's just odd. IMHO

7:39 pm

cybernan

my new daughter-in-law's attendants wore black -- but being the mother of the groom, I had to wear beige and keep my mouth shut!

7:39 pm

lbdawger

I wore black to one wedding.. it was a bartenders wedding...we all wore black cuz we all had to work the wedding! lol

7:46 pm

lbdawger

hmm, wonder if that was a subtle hint, dorens

7:47 pm

Dorens

not that subtle actually, dawg. i am just not ready for that right now, so i told him i don't wear white. i think he got it!

7:47 pm

i've been to a lot of weddings, but i don't think i've ever attended a jewish wedding. odd, i have lots of jewish friends, and grew up with a lot of jewish kids.

7:58 pm

Eva

One of the best weddings I went to was a Sephardi orthodox wedding, where the groom's familiy was from Syria and greece. The married an woman from a modern conservative background, so the wedding was somewhat liberal, but the dancing was separate, and the women did incredible dancing, very close to belly dancing, with each other.

7:58 pm

clairebear872

yes thanks! I had 1)

7:59 pm

Dorens

wow, interesting eva

8:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

hey, peeps

8:03 pm

jesdraggon

evening, tyger :)

8:04 pm

Eva

my brother once went to a wedding of a Lubuvitcher rebbe held at the armory in NYC. The entire wedding, except for the bride and groom at the chuppah, was separated-either by a mehitza or in separate rooms. My brother didn't see his wife for the entire evening.

8:04 pm

tygerbryght

about to break (late) for dinner, with 13 left. thought I'd stick my nose in here :)

8:04 pm

tygerbryght

hey, jes

8:05 pm

jesdraggon

have a good supper :)

8:05 pm

tygerbryght

eva, that sounds fascinating. I've got a close Jewish friend (raised secular), and I've worked for or with many Jewish people, but never been to a wedding

8:05 pm

tygerbryght

thx, jes. yeah, I'd better scoot. still gotta fix it, and don't want to nuke an entree

8:05 pm

Dorens

i was once at an orthodox wedding in brooklyn. the whole nine yards.... fascinating cultural education

8:06 pm

tygerbryght

back in a while

8:06 pm

jesdraggon

i have slacker dinner tonight; left over chinese

8:06 pm

Dorens

and i love sephardic food.... ever have sephardic charoses for passover? oranges, dates, bananas, cocoanut, almonds mmmmmmmm

8:07 pm

Eva

Part of the time I find it fascinating and part of the time oppressive. Oh yes, Sephardi charoset is soooo much better than Ashkenazi!!!

8:08 pm

lbdawger

hi tyger, hi TO

8:09 pm

Dorens

hi tyger and bye sorry

8:09 pm

Eva

I made an entirely Sephardic seder menu once, from a Moroccan cookbook. That was when I was much younger and energetic about cooking for days.

8:09 pm

Dorens

i'll be at your house for the next seder if you do it again eva

8:10 pm

pam

hi, jes!

8:10 pm

jesdraggon

evening, pam

8:10 pm

Dorens

cute dog jes

8:10 pm

pam

I just don't enjoy the whole gender separation thing--the theory, the practice, the everything... don't much enjoy the wigs--or the chador in Muslim faith, either...

8:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi dawg

8:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi dawg

8:11 pm

jesdraggon

thanks, doren :) know anybody that wants him?

8:11 pm

Eva

you're not that far away. But now go to my neighbor's house. They do a vegetarian seder, and i always bring the dessert....usually a chocolate hazelnut torte, but last year I did a chocolate cheesecake, using ground nuts for the crust instead of graham crackers.

8:12 pm

lbdawger

good luck in finding him a home, jes. he looks like quite the companion.

8:12 pm

Dorens

sorry jes, wish i did. I have a friend who probably would, but right now is dealing with her old dog (a rescue) with major arthritis and can't take a new one just yet

8:13 pm

jesdraggon

i'm expecting a call tonight from someone who inquired about him earlier this week. unfortunately, i think the call is going to be "decided to go with the dog that i looked at today" instead of "can i meet him tomorrow"

8:13 pm

pam

sorry, kes, foster is still in the midst of HW treatment...

8:13 pm

Eva

I share many of those feelings Pam, and have had endless conversations with orthodox friends about how it's not a question of "inferiority", but of respect, etc, but I'll feel a lot better about it when women can participate equally in creating halacha. Then, if they choose to maintain the separateness, modest dress, etc, more power to them.

8:14 pm

pam

yes, halacha would be nice 8-). It's not respect, it's men's self control. And I HATE it. Cover up so you will not be enticing towards men. Give me a break

8:14 pm

lbdawger

oh, jes. i hope they decide on him.

8:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

i fail to see how the first two le words are phonetically possible...

8:15 pm

pam

I don't cotton to lesbian separatism, either, so I am consistent

8:16 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, me too dawg. i've got another one now too--a border collie with a broken femur. just put it back together yesterday, because she'd been at the clinic for 4 days and nobody'd claimed her :(

8:16 pm

Dorens

owl? the first two le words? what am i missing? they are normal words

8:16 pm

jesdraggon

that makes 3 permanent dogs, and 2 (hopefully!) temporary

8:17 pm

pam

oh, jes. People stink...

8:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

they may be but not to me. at least, not yet.

8:17 pm

pam

well, people who abandon their dogs. Not the people who save them

8:17 pm

lbdawger

wish i could take one off your hands, jes. i so miss having dogs in my life.

8:17 pm

jesdraggon

yeah. i figured ;)

8:18 pm

jesdraggon

the lady that found the border collie donated $200 towards patching her up, but she's also already got 3 dogs at home and doesn't need/want another

8:18 pm

lbdawger

gotta go, neighbor wants to visit. *sigh* see you all tomorrow.

8:18 pm

pam

8-), jes

8:18 pm

pam

it was nice of her to donate, jes

8:18 pm

jesdraggon

have a good night, dawg :)

8:18 pm

pam

Ciao, lbd

8:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

bye dawg

8:18 pm

Dorens

night dawg

8:18 pm

Eva

Of course they would argue that it's a sign of men's weakness. I have worked hard to be able to see this from the other perspective, since I have known many very complex, bright and strong orthodox women - but ultimately have just jad to say that it's their choice, but not one I could be comfortable with. One of the things which I find distressing is the message it gives to little girls, when their brothers are allowed to run around in shorts, whatever, while they have to cover up.

8:20 pm

Eva

pam-we may have gone through this before, but where are you in Mass?

8:20 pm

pam

EXACTLY, eva. I have tangled with the issue, too, but I have come to the conclusion that men need to learn self-control and self-respect, too. It's all about property---the kids are jewish because mom is and we always know who mom is. Well, in 2008, it's time to modernize...

8:20 pm

hey scrabs

8:22 pm

where in JP, eva? That's where I live

8:22 pm

Scrabbler

Is Jess still here? Yes, there you are. I had a bat visitor flying around in my house (cathedral ceiling) a few weeks ago. What an adventure that was. It got in through an incompletely closed screen door--I heard a noise and assumed it was the raccoons visiting.

8:23 pm

Eva

near hyde square

8:23 pm

pam

I live in Sumner Hill area

8:23 pm

jesdraggon

bats are so neat :)

8:23 pm

COOL, Eva. That's where I get my hair cut

8:23 pm

just got back to PC, and was about to dive back into the grid, when I saw scrabs. hey, scrabs

8:23 pm

WOW, scrabs....

8:23 pm

I go to Exposre by Noelle. Where do you go?

8:23 pm

Scrabbler

I kept telling myself that (I could "hear" you talking to me) when it was divebombing all over past my head.

8:24 pm

tygerbryght

didja get my email about Ben? I didn't get an answer, if you sent it

8:24 pm

Scrabbler

Tyger, you got my e-mail?

8:24 pm

jesdraggon

how'd you let her out?

8:24 pm

pam

Salon Ultra in the Square, eva

8:24 pm

tygerbryght

no, scrabs, unless you sent it today. haven't checked yahoo mail yet tonite

8:24 pm

Scrabbler

I get my hair done at Supercuts--$12.95, or sometimes there is a special for $10.95.

8:25 pm

Scrabbler

I THINK I sent you an e-mail, tyger.

8:25 pm

Eva

Is that the place next to Zons? Never tried it. I'm chicken when it comes to hair cuts. I've stayed with the same person for a long, long time.

8:25 pm

pam

I am too hair picky--even as I let it go a few weeks too long between cuts--Scrabs... for Supercuts

8:25 pm

pam

Yes, eva. that's the one

8:25 pm

tygerbryght

I useta be scared stiff of bats. one got into my apt when I was pregnant, and I walked down to a neighbor's to get her husband to get it out. Now, I understand their ecological value, and had the chance to protect one on my last job, once :)

8:25 pm

pam

Noelle was at Fresh Hair, right? Or am I thinking of someone else

8:26 pm

Scrabbler

Jess, I opened the back door and at first I thought it went out but then I saw it hanging in the back hallway. That really creeped me out, but I told myself "bats are neat, Jess said so".

8:26 pm

pam

I like bats well enough, OUTSIDE, LOL

8:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi does anyone have a clue for second ad 5 please?

8:27 pm

Dorens

we had one in the house years ago. my then six year old son told me there was a big black butterfly in his bedroom, and i just humored him, until the next nite when my husband had taken the kids out for ice cream and it was in my bedroom and i was all alone in the house. swoop, swoop, swoop

8:27 pm

jesdraggon

heheh. next time, open the door and throw ping pong balls from near the bat out the door. sometimes they'll follow them. helps if you turn off the house lights so you don't attract a bunch of moths inside for the bat to hunt

8:27 pm

tygerbryght

so, scrabs, can you send it again, or do you want to give me the info now?

8:27 pm

Eva

Exactly. Then he opened up his own place along with Adamis. He's quite a trip, but I have Adamis cut my hair. And last year, with the great advice from many Babbler's I began coloring my own hair with Loreal, instead of paying Noelle big bucks to do it. Comes out just as well, for 7.95

8:27 pm

tygerbryght

2nd ad5: compound word + males who work at selling stuff

8:27 pm

I was down on my knees and tilting my head as the bat came diving down like a WWII plane over and over.

scrabs, you were very brave. of course, the bat was scared, too :)

I went to noelle after someone at Fresh Hair turned me blond. I was in tears. I've always been dark, although now my real color is mainly gray.

8:29 pm

scrabs, send email (again?), please? I hafta go tend stuff on the stove

8:29 pm

I have never heard great things about Fresh Hair...

8:30 pm

Scrabbler

OK, tyger

8:30 pm

Dorens

anyone have a clue for the en7/44 please?

8:30 pm

Eva

I'm really bummed that Bella Luna is moving. I now it won't be that far away, but it's been great having them right at the end of the block. I guess the landlord just jacked the rent way up....it will be interesting to see, in this economy, if they can get anyone else to rent it.

8:31 pm

pam

it holds a letter, minus the last vowel, dorens

8:31 pm

jesdraggon

is the 'x' used at all in this grid?

8:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

to wrap around - or what you use to mail a letter in

thanks owl. that took me too long.. i must be tired

8:32 pm

have you ever tried that really expensive little place-5 table or whatever it's called? I keep reading good reviews, then looking at their menu and thinking that no meal can be worth that much.

8:33 pm

jesdraggon

it's the 8 TOO, TO :) thanks

8:34 pm

Eva

I'll be going to Jp on Tuesday, so when we're babbling next week we'll be only blocks away. Was 10 tables all it was reputed to be?

8:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

well then give up the y

8:35 pm

Eva

Okay, 60 left and I'm about ready to give up on this grid!! Nasty thing.

Scrabbler

Yahoo Doren!!

8:39 pm

Eva

Good to know-maybe I'll give it a try some time. I do get very bored with the food choices here in Vermont. Since being Jewish is about as ethnically exotic as it gets, the food tends to be pretty white bread.

9:06 pm

jesdraggon

the border collie did not lose her leg last night; i was able to wire it back in line. remains to be seen if she'll be able to use it or if there's been too much nerve damage.
