12:32 am

sandyloo

the one next door chased me when i went to visit our neighbour- you have never seen anyone jumping a gate so fast!

12:32 am

pigeonman

Sandy. That depends on the type of geese. Generally they won't chase members of their family. If you are worried about it, just get a couple of females. They are not aggressive unless they have babies.

12:33 am

pigeonman

Which one MLF?

12:33 am

sandyloo

it had its wings spread and its mouth wide open!!! lol

12:33 am

12:37 am

sandyloo

12:38 am

sandyloo

I love the ones next door they have a lot of character but I always go out there with my neighbour but they have the measure of my jack russels which is funny

12:41 am

pigeonman

Crap Geek. If my computer crashed, I'd have to order a new one. I'd have to rig my skeet launcher so that it would have a computer basket. :-)

12:42 am

sandyloo

12:43 am

Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio, he moved a million hearts in mono.
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them.
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever.
Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
and we can sing just like our fathers.

2:46 am

sprite

You're my angel
My sun up in the sky
We've been through hell and back together
Why you wanna leave me now

woot Lori

2:47 am

loredana

heres one for Haz i always think of this song for herThere's a tear in your eye,
And I'm wondering why,
For it never should be there at all.
With such pow'r in your smile,
Sure a stone you'd beguile,
So there's never a teardrop should fall.
When your sweet lilting laughter's
Like some fairy song,
And your eyes twinkle bright as can be;
You should laugh all the while
And all other times smile,
And now, smile a smile for me.

Chorus
When Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring.
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing.
When Irish hearts are happy,
All the world seems bright and gay.
And when Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, they steal your heart away.

For your smile is a part
Of the love in your heart,
And it makes even sunshine more bright.
Like the linnet's sweet song,
Crooning all the day long,
Comes your laughter and light.
For the springtime of life
Is the sweetest of all
There is ne'er a real care or regret;
And while springtime is ours
Throughout all of youth's hours,
Let us smile each chance we get.

2:54 am

GroovyKiwi

The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than its ever been
When I grew up with my best friend kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it real

2:54 am

GroovyKiwi

sandy my boss left welly today on his way to mckay

2:55 am

sandyloo

Haven't seen her for a while she teaches in Broome and is coming down for the holidays with her boyfriend

2:55 am

GroovyKiwi

But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know Ill never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think hes right behind me now and hes gaining ground

2:55 am

sandyloo

Lol kiwi

2:55 am

GroovyKiwi

But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

2:55 am

sprite

oh lovely, sandy! Am happy for you.

2:56 am

sprite

good lines, Kiwi. Don't know the song, but great lines.

2:56 am

GroovyKiwi

And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees

2:56 am

sandyloo

Kiwi you are a little ray of sunshine

2:57 am

GroovyKiwi

2:57 am

GroovyKiwi

There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything Ill ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
Im in the back seat with my julie like a romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, caution! kids at play!

2:58 am

GroovyKiwi

Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would --
Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
And she said --
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"

3:58 am

loredana

everything okay now?

3:58 am

meliae

yep all is well in the world once more

3:59 am

meliae

lots of bad dreams and temper tantrums lately it is trying times for all of us

4:00 am

loredana

when they know they are leaving you this must unsettle them surely Mel?

4:00 am

meliae

yes these lsat 2 that are going now Ihave had for just over a year so its hard on them

4:01 am

LoriP

I only have 1 7 out of all those r's. Is there perhaps another big one I'm missing?

4:01 am

meliae

at least they will be going together and the couple who they will go with are long term caregivers so they should be there a long time

4:01 am

meliae

only one 7 in that mess Lori

4:02 am

loredana

well i guess thats a good thing they will be together

4:02 am

LoriP

Dang. So much for that theory then. Thanks muchly meliae.

4:03 am

meliae

They have been together for I think 6 years their caseworker is trying hard to keep them together

4:04 am

meliae

I was only suppose to be temporary for them and they knew that, I always stress that when I have them for short term, it just ended up they stayed longer than we had orginally thought

4:05 am

Andree

it must be so sad to see them go after a year

4:05 am

meliae

Elsie the one I adopted of course will stay, and I am thinking about applying to adopt Mary too, but I am not sure about her other family members, they dont want to take care of her, and yet I bet they will fight me if I try to adopt her

4:07 am

loredana

Mel do the girls family Marys family visit?

4:07 am

loredana

now off to the Rs lol

4:07 am

meliae

Mary is pretty much self sufficent she works and can take the bus by herself. She just needs someone to remind her to take her meds, and she cannot cook too forgetful

4:07 am

loredana

getting out the monkeys kiwi did it so i can at least try

4:08 am

meliae

no they dont she goes to their house for holidays but it is only for the day no over night stays

4:08 am

loredana

your one in a million billion Mel hugs

4:08 am

LoriP

I've ignored the f. Guess I have no choice now, to conclude the first sweep. :/

4:09 am

meliae

they have younger kids and she is not good around kids at all, she gets jealous and hits so that is why they cannot have her in thier home

4:09 am

loredana

i didnt have any problems with the Fs clues for 2 x 8 and 1 x7 in my icon LoriP

4:10 am

loredana

so they shouldnt have a problem with your adopting then?

4:10 am

meliae

4:10 am

LoriP

Ahh, so that's where the 8's are. Thanks for the first 2 letters lore.

4:11 am

loredana

well i hope all goes well for you and mary Mel

4:11 am

loredana

yw loriP

4:11 am

meliae

I dont know Lore I am going to kind of ask and see how they react, I can offer her so much more if I am her legal guardian, rather than just a caregiver for her

4:12 am

meliae

If they wont let me adopt her, then I am going to have to tell them that they need to look for someone else

4:13 am

meliae

or at least if they wont let me adopt her then some kind of guardianship so I can sign for stuff for her

4:13 am

loredana

sounds fair mel but i cant imagine them refusing after all they should be pleased that Mary is with someone who will care for her

4:14 am

redturtlehead

who knew that the fu**** word for more enjoyable activities was actually a word.

4:14 am

loredana

hi there red

4:15 am

meliae

she is not through the state we have a private agreement, and so I get no help from the state, they pay me ok, and she gets social security which they pay me out of that, her money she gets for her working is all hers.

4:16 am

meliae

I cannot even sign for medical for her The dr's office knows the background so I dont have to worry about that, but if she was ever hurt bad and I had to take her to the hospital I cannot sign the papers

4:27 am

loredana

i am not up on all the details i seem to recall its a shoulder

4:28 am

redturtlehead

sandyloo

hi i'm here again and have been reading the log

4:35 am

sandyloo

red it is suggested she have shoulder fusion and I am trying to find out more about it. she cannot have physio as the shoulder is too damaged and we have been to lots of orthos

4:36 am

sandyloo

I will put my email on my profile anyone is welcome to email me about it or anything

4:37 am

sandyloo

whatever we decide there will be no rushing into it. knowledge first - action later

4:37 am

loredana

sandy did you get reds email from the chat

4:38 am

sandyloo

no but I will look back and get it-thanks lore

4:39 am

sandyloo

4:51 am

sandyloo

4:52 am

grannyrose

yes sandy, have responded. hope it was helpful.

4:52 am

sandyloo

haven't looked but i will now thanks

4:57 am

sandyloo

thanks for that rose- she cant swim as she does not have enough movement- she can't even hang out the washing

4:58 am

hillary

y

4:58 am

sandyloo

we have been to 4 orthos and she has been a case study -its beginning to look like fusion is the only answer but i want to talk to someone who has had it done.

4:58 am

grannyrose

sandy, i suggest hydrotherapy. it gradually increases your range of movement, while building strength

4:59 am

hillary

d

4:59 am

sandyloo

she cant even have physio as there is too much damage but I will try to talk her into some pool work- just doing anything would be good for her mind I think

5:00 am

sandyloo

I will go with her, some pool work would be good for anyone including me!

5:01 am

grannyrose

sandy, i'll ask around. i have a lot of surgeon friends, they will be able to help, with some suggestions, i'm sure. will email you with what i find out.

5:01 am

sandyloo

I really appreciate the email and suggestions rose, thankyou

5:02 am

grannyrose

yw sandy. ;)

5:02 am

sandyloo

one thing is that we are not rushing into anything-knowledge before action is my motto

5:03 am

grannyrose

bbl, dinner ready. sandy email me please, and keep in touch.

5:03 am

sandyloo

she has had three ops on that shoulder and 3 on the other one

5:06 am

dizgrannie

sorry to interupt...don't know what is wrong with the person..but if she has limited movement then hydrotherapy will help heaps...I have scoliosis and just walking up and down the pool relaxes, refreshes and HELPS HEAPS

5:09 am

sandyloo

diz, I agree with you and I will try to get her to go, she has a bad shoulder and they are suggesting fusion -she is only 34

5:10 am

sandyloo

I feel above anything else it would be good for her mindset

5:10 am

sandyloo

and don't be sorry to interupt all input is appreciated

5:11 am

dizgrannie

sorry to be a bearer of bad news, but I don't believe in fusion...wanted to do that to me cos of my spine...NOWAY cos no guarantee mobility afterwards

5:13 am

sandyloo

fusion is a last resort and we know it will inhibit movement -it is shoulder fusion not spine- and they are suggesting it to combat the pain she has

5:13 am

dizgrannie

Oh OK then

5:14 am

sandyloo

they guarantee loss of mobility but she has very little of that anyway

5:14 am

gapeach

Hey there

5:14 am

5:20 am

sandyloo

5:20 am

ms_gilly

it's easy lol

5:20 am

sandyloo

ooh, just realised i have a crack in my wine glass

5:24 am

Dianne

Sandy, I had a frozen shoulder and went to physio, the chiropractor and an orthopedic surgeon all to no avail then I tried scalp acupuncture. I had immediate results and after approx 8 treatment the shoulder was "unfrozen". Worth a try.

5:25 am

sandyloo

Thanks Di, but she has had 3 operations on her shoulder and none have really been successful. She started with lots of dislocations so it is a different problem- she has had bone transplant and screws etc.

5:26 am

sandyloo

no cartilage left and little muscle

5:29 am

Dianne

I don't know if there is a acupuncturist around you that practices this but it is really amazing what results/pain reduction this kind of treatment can give.

5:31 am

sandyloo

Actually, acupuncture is something i haven't tried. I think it would be worth a try so we will. Much appreciated.

5:32 am

sandyloo

No drugs and nothing to lose

5:33 am

Dianne

The guy I go to puts the needle in the top of your head - he says that is the place of you "well memories". I know it sounds a bit far out but I personall say a paralized stroke patient stand after one treatment.

5:34 am

Dianne

*saw*

5:35 am

sandyloo

wow that sure is incredible. I definetly (that doesn't look like the right spelling) will try it

5:35 am

Dianne

Got to go now - need to get something to have for dinner and get home. Bye.

5:35 am

sandyloo

definitly

5:36 am

sandyloo

definitely - aaah

5:37 am

sandyloo

5:43 am

sandyloo

I am having a good laugh

5:43 am

sandyloo

but I'm still wanting seared scallops

5:43 am

FMitch

I wouldn't be surprised if you said there really was an adultery channel -sigh of cynicism.

5:44 am

LoriP

Sadly, that crossed my mind too FM.

5:44 am

sandyloo

There is an adult channel but you have to pay extra...LOL

5:44 am

FMitch

Scallops look wonderful but I am allergic to them and mussels and all molluscs :(

5:45 am

sandyloo

I'll just have to try and make my life into the adult channel

5:45 am

LoriP

FMitch

Crab, lobster, praws etc all fine and yummy and all fish too.

5:46 am

sandyloo

LOL Lori, I have the same complaint- when I got married I couldn't understand why my bed wasn't made

5:47 am

FMitch

There she goes with the housework word again - I think it should be banned!

5:47 am

sandyloo

When I had my first baby, I couldn't understand why the world is overpopulated

5:48 am

FMitch

5:48 am

sandyloo

4, and I still can't understand

5:49 am

FMitch

5:52 am

FMitch

*tries to imagine Lori breakdancing*

5:52 am

sandyloo

Surely you don't have more than four Lori!

LoriP

Haz1558

My issues? I have issues?

sandyloo

What would a stranger think being accused of being a Babbler??

7:35 am

sandyloo

I think you will need some identifying marker

7:35 am

Haz1558

I know 'Do you babble?' might not come across very well.

7:35 am

sandyloo

I suggest pink beanies

7:35 am

FMitch

Might be an arrestable offence in London - I don't know?

7:35 am

FMitch

Umm what is a pink beanie?

7:36 am

Haz1558

Anyway, time is passing and I'd better get some lunch. Have a good babbling day and I'll see YOU tomorrow, FMitch. (I don't have a pink beanie either) Byeee!

11:04 am

EspritdJean

or eat your way thru

LoriP

Well, that was rude. G'd afternoon everyone!

1:04 pm

elder

Hello again LoriP:)

1:04 pm

Hi elder! dc, Babble's amazing, the different faces one sees at different times. :)

1:05 pm

1:05 pm

1:05 pm

Hi Stid. I am stalled at 51 found.

1:05 pm

stidmama

1:05 pm

stidmama

hey cousin. sounds like a toughie then

1:05 pm

elder

hello Stid, how you ?.

1:06 pm

dcseain

i slept, took my meads, have been eating and staying hydrated, and the door is open to let in the lovely humidity. hello to yoo, too stid.

1:06 pm

Scrabbler

Is it a cold, Seain, or more than that?

1:06 pm

LoriP

lolol, red spots in the back of the throat, after a fever and I round of vomiting yesterday, in a child (almost 9 years old), and complaining of a sore throat ranking 9 out of 10 on the "does it hurt scale". Watchful waiting?

1:06 pm

dcseain

eating made the headache go away, too

1:06 pm

Scrabbler

Lori, what is your question?

1:06 pm

dcseain

nasal and strep. i went to doc early to avoid upper resp

1:07 pm

stidmama

*brings seain ginger ale, tea, oranges, apple slices, crackers and cheese; box of kleenex and a garbage can (just in case); a pile of coloring books and crayons (new box)

1:07 pm

dcseain

i'm doing much better this afternoon, but shall not go out today.

1:07 pm

stidmama

oh oh lori...

1:07 pm

elder

LoriP. oh poor little mite..

1:08 pm

dcseain

crayons. I was so happy once i found oil pastels. i like oil pastels and pencils. only after those did i learn to really use crayans, which i did not grok until the oil pastels. :)

1:08 pm

Scrabbler

He certainly could have Strep throat, although it is early in the season. Strep is most common Nov-Mar. If there are red dots on the soft palate and uvula that is more suggestive of Strep. The answer will come from a rapid Strep test or throat culture.

1:08 pm

LoriP

oh dc :( Not fun. I hope you feel better soon! ***hands a cup of hot tea with honey***

1:08 pm

dcseain

ty, lori.

1:09 pm

Scrabbler

*hands Seain some Echinacea and Goldenseal, to boost his immune system**

1:09 pm

dcseain

my doctor mentioned they've had a lot of false negatives for strep here recently. They are in the Western Northern Virginia area. It's rearing its head early this season herebouts.

1:09 pm

stidmama

:-D nothing like a new box of crayons to absolutely make my day -- my newest box are pure pigment, shaped like pencils, and fragile because there is only a very thin lacquer between the wax and the hand. duct tape heals all!

1:09 pm

elder

warm flannel dipped in comforting herbs, for both Dcs and LorIP's little one.

1:09 pm

LoriP

Okay, thanks Scrabbler. I've always thought of strep as white spots, and I've never had a kid with strep (except Uni). this is the kid that has a high tolerance for pain, so him answering 9 out a possible 10 startled me, lol

1:10 pm

Scrabbler

Hmm, I would bet on true negatives---not Strep season yet and if there is a stuffy, runny nose then the diagnosis = viral. Just throwing in my $ 0.02.

1:10 pm

stidmama

yes, I would be worried too lori -- scrabbler do dairy products "feed" strep?

1:11 pm

MonkeyGames

Could it be what Walter had? And I'm not really here... hi folks...

1:11 pm

Uniquity

**as vote of confidence...that kid is TOUGH. A nine is a serious number for him.

1:11 pm

LoriP

No runny nose, or any of that. Just a slight fever today he went to school, but hasn't eaten a thing, complaining about the sore throat.

1:11 pm

stidmama

hello monkey-who-is-not-here

1:11 pm

Scrabbler

Lori, viruses, e.g. Adenovirus, typically cause "white spots".

1:11 pm

Scrabbler

Hi MG and Uniquity

1:11 pm

dcseain

i mostly eschew dairy when stuffy, but i'm lactoes intolerant.

1:11 pm

elder

hello Monkey.. just seen your mirror image. ::))

1:11 pm

MonkeyGames

Sprite and her kids all have the sore throat like that... I think we brought it back from CA...

1:12 pm

Scrabbler

Darn germs!

1:12 pm

MonkeyGames

My mirror image?

1:12 pm

stidmama

they are better now though monkey -- except sprite, but you know with her advanced age it just takes her longer to get over things. *wicked mama look*

1:12 pm

dcseain

hy, monkey

1:12 pm

LoriP

Ahh, that's good info Scrabbler. I'm not a panic mode Mom by any stretch. Slight fever, extremely sore throat, red spots sums it up. lol

1:12 pm

MonkeyGames

Yeah, can't use "st5 mama look"...

1:12 pm

stidmama

YES!!! I got the Y wurds!

1:13 pm

Scrabbler

Stid or anyone, are mums perennials? I bought several that were on sale. Can I plant them in the ground and expect a return next year?

1:13 pm

dcseain

i've had chills with no fever, though today no chills nor achiness, happily.

1:13 pm

dcseain

go, stid!

1:13 pm

elder

I think it takes adults longer to feel better as you try to keep going.

1:13 pm

stidmama

oops. thanks for that one monkey! LOL

1:13 pm

MonkeyGames

I'm glad they'r better! Yay! Advanced age?

Scrabbler

Mums = chrysanthemums.

***nothing but good things from my home to Mary***

1:18 pm

Scrabbler

Elder, she has been getting intensive OT + PT all along, but has lost strength over the last 2 wks or so. It is thought that the cancer chemotherapy is contributing.

but of course, monkey

1:19 pm

stidmama

oh oh... yes monkey -- would another email be good or just more confusing to him?

1:19 pm

Scrabbler

MG, he is in California, right? Is he comfortable?

1:19 pm

elder

good positive thoughts passing on to Mary and Monkey's Grandfather.

1:19 pm

MonkeyGames

Well, not more confusing-- he seemsquite comfortable, not freaked-outr confused... I think he's love to hear from you.

1:19 pm

LoriP

Gonna' go and let the kdis on now, thanks for the information, good to see all the old faces. Have a great day all!

1:20 pm

Scrabbler

Ben is back in school fulltime and still must use a walking boot as the bone graft is slow to heal. Chemo continues.

1:20 pm

stidmama

wait- ben the nephew? is this the one that had the skateboard accident or something?

1:20 pm

MonkeyGames

Scrabbs, yes, he is in an excellent facility where they genuinely love himand is getting very good care. My aunt is there every day for some hours.

1:20 pm

dcseain

well, there is progress, scrabbs, glad to hear.

1:20 pm

What is the sewer word in the grid?

1:20 pm

stidmama

okay, I'll write a note today

1:20 pm

elder

Bye LoriP, hope your little one perks up soon and starts to feel better.

1:20 pm

stidmama

1:21 pm

stidmama

1:21 pm

LoriP

***forgot to add, feel better soon dc*** Laters!

1:21 pm

Scrabbler

Nope, Ben, my patient--15 yr old with metastatic bone cancer from the foot.

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Thanks, Stid! He likes to hear from people.

1:21 pm

Scrabbler

Ah, yes, wasn't si5 in the grid yesterday? Geez, I saw it yesterday but not today.

1:22 pm

stidmama

oh -- sorry, it has been a while and there are so many people you know with problems... *sigh*

1:22 pm

stidmama

yes, it was in the grid yesterday also.

1:22 pm

Scrabbler

Yep, tragedy and sorrow abound the world over.

1:23 pm

stid where is the picture of you and ardilla?

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

Being a doctor brings one closer to it all too, I know. Let's all salute Scrabbler and Kje and the other doctors on here for their toreless work to help the rest of us poor schmos!

1:23 pm

I think I put it on the website... hold on

It is awful to hear of youngster going through so much, when their childhoods should be free of such horrid stuff.

Salute'

1:24 pm

Our practice just had an 11 yr old girl diagnosed with lymphoma yesterday, with extensive testing underway now to determine the type.

1:25 pm

MonkeyGames

For the record, Walter still insists he wants to be a podiatrist even though they don't get to listen to a lot of heart beeps (stethoscope curent fave toy).

1:25 pm

elder

oh my........

1:25 pm

MonkeyGames

Poor kid!

1:25 pm

elder

Monkey.. bless.

1:26 pm

stidmama

okay, check icon/profile

1:26 pm

Scrabbler

The bad diagnoses are tough, for sure, on us, but far more for the kid and family. Then there are healthy kids with minor, self-limiting illnesses and parents cannot cope.

1:26 pm

stidmama

LOL good walter!

1:26 pm

dcseain

https://alert.loudoun.gov/latest.php OMG you MUST see the 10:13 and 10:16 alerts from the Loudoun County, Virgiinia gov't!!!

you are too funny, stid. stating that is you on the right and ardilla on the left :-)

1:27 pm

Scrabbler

Hmm, sorry if that sounds snotty. I just wish that many more parents would cope better with colds, stomach viruses, etc.

1:27 pm

stidmama

water wells? or the main road closure?

1:27 pm

stidmama

well, someone who doesn't know me wouldn't know! ;-)

1:27 pm

Tom wanted to be a doctor growing up, but became an RN, and is planning to go back to school for anesthesiology

1:28 pm

BzznBea

Don't you think they think you should be able to give them medicine and all is right with the world, Scrabs?

1:28 pm

dcseain

the gingerbread man, stid, scroll down

1:28 pm

periwinkle

you're right, stid. just made me chuckle

1:28 pm

stidmama

scrabbler, no fair talking about me in public! *upset mama look* I shall have to take THREE valiums and go lie down now. I just cannot cope!!!

1:28 pm

elder

Not snotty Scrabbs.. its about putting things into perspective .

1:28 pm

BzznBea

And they want that medicine so they can get back to work.

1:28 pm

MonkeyGames

I understand that, Stid. I am usually OK, but thios mystery virus took out my equanimity for a bit.... BUt I deal well with the routine childhood stuff, ear infections, that stuff.

1:28 pm

stidmama

ROFL!!! oh, that is TOO funny!

1:29 pm

Scrabbler

That is hilarious, Seain!!!

But, MG, Walter's illness was prolonged and you were right to notice that.

1:30 pm

Monkey.. your lad was poorly for a long time it needed to be checked out.. and thankfully all was well.

1:30 pm

dcseain

Scrabbler

Hi Diem

stidmama

1:30 pm

dcseain

it's a grid compared to yesterday :)

1:31 pm

stidmama

I think parents with younger children tend to be more concerned that with older ones, and the first or second child's illnesses seem more alarming than later siblings'

1:31 pm

tempo

Scrabbler - I grew up in Perry NY - where are you?

1:31 pm

MonkeyGames

1:52 pm

Mary

hows the bird scrabs?

1:53 pm

Scrabbler

I didn't find a bird so it must have flown off. Not long ago, a baby purple finch slammed into the window and I grabbed him out there but he quickly died, from a broken neck, I presume.

1:53 pm

pugmama763

it happens frequently here but most are just stunned momentarily

Mary

poor thing. One day last winter a grackle was overcome from the furnace fumes and fell in the chimney, landed on the bottom, revived himself, and flew through the furnace and was in my basement for a few days before I cornered him and let him go outside. As he was released he made a huge sound as if to say thank you.

3:42 pm

AsGreen

hi gang... I think I need 47 clues

3:42 pm

lynxxx

TY bfsog

3:42 pm

bfsog

thanks for the commitment, but my friend finishes work when the work doo starts.

3:43 pm

autumn moon

bfsog - see if someone else can pick up the friend, change the venue to something closer to you work funtion, then leave the work function earlier. Just explain it to your workmates that this "suddenly came up" and they should be understanding about it

3:43 pm

kristinc

thanks for the f clue, I am thinking!

3:43 pm

AsGreen

au5/12 clue?

hi AS

3:44 pm

bfsog

3:44 pm

AsGreen

3:44 pm

bfsog

babble: 1. bfsog dilemmas: 0

3:45 pm

AsGreen

*silly, that is

3:46 pm

AsGreen

um, isn't ferris a kind of wheel?

3:46 pm

autumn moon

I would commit to my friend, with immediate apologies to my workmates. If you're holding your friend's function in a public place, tell your workmates that is where you'll be if they want to come by after the work function

3:47 pm

kristinc

is the ir6 a fish bychance? (and then can I have a clue for it :) )

3:47 pm

bfsog

thanks to everyones thoughts, such a caring bunch! different towns are holding both parties. i doubt anyone from work will miss me that much i only been there 5 months lol

3:47 pm

lynxxx

Well - unless your friend can get to you under her own steam or you can change the day to say this Sunday, I think you need to ring your boss and grovel out of the work do

3:48 pm

AsGreen

3:48 pm

lynxxx

ir6 full of anger

3:48 pm

6:46 pm

Scrabbler

My Fix-It put in new shower/tub faucets, repaired the sump pump, put in a new motion sensor light outside, removed the garbage disposal and fixed the leaking kitchen sink.

6:46 pm

that is terrific, scrabs!

6:46 pm

that is quite a bit of work Scrabbler, must be a relief to have that finished

6:47 pm

6:47 pm

MetFan

No, Sis, I don't watch the games - seeing them choke AGAIN is too depressing

6:48 pm

Scrabbler

Mary entered the hospital yesterday due to ongoing and worsening weakness and fortunately all tests are normal, so it is presumed that the chemo is making her weak. I will visit her this weekend and she wants to be home by Tuesday for her daughter's 8th birthday.

6:48 pm

pugmama763

ne+ make a f*** to punch with

6:48 pm

reparteena

no choking! they pulled it out and won in the 9th

6:48 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, it IS such a relief. I have a list of more work for him but I have to save some money.

6:48 pm

Mom

6:49 pm

Nothing like last year, Met...

6:49 pm

Mom

Scrabbler, that is a good way to go about it. I am sure your Mr Fix-It is much cheaper than getting a repairman for each item you want fix

6:50 pm

Scrabbler

Nope, she is a dear friend diagnosed with brain cancer 2 days after the birth of her 3rd child last Oct. She became ill during the third trimester.

6:50 pm

6:50 pm

Mom

6:51 pm

lexleeanne

6:52 pm

pam

I need the gadgets in the toilet fixed... I suppose I could watch a video and unscrew everything muyself... but I think I'll just ask the downstairs neighbor, who is a contractor, who is plumber is.... I'll get a deal

When he came to fix my sump pump in August (the basement was flooded and it took him 3 hrs and multiple trips up and downstairs) as I pulled out my checkbook he said, "Hm, how does $120 sound? Is that OK?"

6:53 pm

this debate isn't being very well conducted

8:46 pm

lbdawger

frozen peas or corn wrapped in a towel. it really will help the swelling and pain.

8:46 pm

Jacula

I'm not sure that he's not having a bleed now. I will hope that GP will respond at 9am and come and see him.

8:46 pm

Shirlockc

they both move off point, not answering the question

8:46 pm

planning vs methodology

that's good to hear that there are still good people in offices.

8:46 pm

8:46 pm

not really ardilla *trying to remember the difference* I think the tactics are HOW you accomplish the strategies. in military speak, anyway

8:46 pm

Shirlockc

oops, sorry all, wrong window

8:47 pm

Jacula

lbd - if I put sweetcorn anywhere NEAR the crown jewels I'd be damned. He hates corn. LOL

8:47 pm

nDanLia

obama interrupted early on when he shouldn't have & wasn't called, so they've been taking turns doing it since

8:47 pm

lbdawger

tactics is the how and the resources to do it. strategies are plans to make the tactics work

8:47 pm

Jacula

..though, maybe if it helped him in his hour of need?

8:47 pm

stidmama

my father used to fly for the tactical airlift command out of McChord (back when the Air Force had MAC, SAC and TAC) Military airlift, Strategic airlift and Tactical airlift commands

Ardilla - I finished at 4.07pm grid time (about 10pm UK time). My last word was zo6.36. Yesterday's grid was a great grid but not easy for me to finish due to being worried etc., but my last word, ironically, was 'triumph'. LOL

i think that the candidates should not have debates. i think that economic experts should come on the tv and have a discussion about what is best to do. people who are more committed to serious inquiry than to any political party and will just tell us WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON

9:04 pm

Jacula

Dunno, Hursh, 'cos I'm not seeing the same TV ads as you do. I was rather concerned when , after receiving from Sprite what I thought was a spoof letter of complaint to the advertising manager of Always pads I then saw an ad for them which said 'Have A Happy Period!' Are they mad or what?

9:05 pm

herinfernallady

Glad i have Staying Alive on telly

The only people who are 'happy' to receive periods are those who tooks risks and thought they might be pregnant but didn't want to be and those, who through some kind of illness, weren't having any and are happy to see them back as a sign of good health.

herinfernallady

Its one of my fav adverts.

9:12 pm

hurshy

does it... ok this is not meant badly, but... do you think it might not be quite as annoying as ours, on account of it having less global impact?

9:13 pm

stidmama

I think the Canadian is less annoying just because it's only a few weeks long. I tuned out the U.S. (mostly) a few months ago. TWO YEARS they have been going at it!

Jon Stewart Vs. Stephen Colbert....

9:17 pm

Shirlockc

ciao, stid

9:28 pm

hurshy

the thing i don't get is, a good number of politicians are reasonably intelligent people - how do they stand this whole process? i'd be a bald lady if i had to run for office. either from pulling my own hair out, or because i'd develop an ulcer that would be misdiagnosed as paraneoplastic syndrome resulting from cancer, and given chemotherapy.

9:28 pm

westford

we'll keep a light on stid

9:29 pm

tygerbryght

I need to get back to work. I have more than 60 words yet to find

it's the will to power, west. many people, once they get a taste of power, develop an addiction

9:30 pm

well, hurshy, then you won't have the health care $ to treat your ulcers

9:30 pm

nDanLia

its the power rush; some have it, some dont

9:30 pm

I'll stick to babble then

gotta get back to the grindstone

9:31 pm

tygerbryght

back in a bit

9:31 pm

hurshy

it won't matter anyway, shirlock, because the chemo will have destroyed my immune system, so the infection that the perforated ulcer releases into my system will kill me, and no amount of money will stop it.

9:31 pm

ardilla

mccain's tone is very condensending

9:32 pm

ardilla

*condescending

9:32 pm

9:56 pm

that is a great one, stid. maybe we could do an on-air practice.

9:56 pm

Jacula

Hi Pam - he collapsed after the op but insisted on coming home some 5 hours later, against hospital advice. Now his operation site is balloonning alarmingly.

9:56 pm

smaller

we'll need a third host. i'll volunteer to houdinize myself and then report on it through out the cast

9:56 pm

stidmama

oh Jac.... can't you just take him in???

9:57 pm

pam

operation? I am out of the loop... If it's swelling, shouldn't you get him back to hospital?

9:57 pm

GreyWoulf

Thanks, stid -- it is nice to be missed, though it also stinks knowing that I am not able to be here as much as I used to be

9:57 pm

stidmama

I can't be on tomorrow though, we are going out of town.

9:57 pm

evanonut

i'm not guaranteeeering a show until smalls sends me her phone number...must make sure she won't try my patience tooo tooo much

9:57 pm

smaller

different methods. dos and donts. helpful hang-upside-down stuff.

9:57 pm

hurshy

another reason energy independence is needed.
so, we use so much gas and oil and the money flows into the middle east. well, apparently, the saudis wanted to give lots of money to berkeley for engineering research - on the condition that each endowed faculty member come share about their research in saudi arabia for a week or two each year, and that therefore no faculty could be women or jews.

9:57 pm

stidmama

I can't be on as much either, Full-time school starting Tuesday... also helping in several middle-school classrooms on my "day off".

9:57 pm

Jacula

I tried, pam - but it's a 6 hour wait for a doctor to call and he can't drive and I haven't driven for about 12 years.

9:58 pm

pam

Ugh, jac.... what kind of operation did he have?

9:58 pm

smaller

Try-one's-patience is my Indian name

9:58 pm

stidmama

I actually got the class I wanted, Woulf! I was on the wait list until this afternoon. Got an email at 5 saying they put me in. SOOOOO happy!

9:59 pm

GreyWoulf

Great for you, stid -- which class?

9:59 pm

stidmama

nut, how about YOU send her YOUR phone number...

9:59 pm

Jacula

If I have to I will call 999 (991 to you lot on other side of pond) but that might be a 3 hours wait. He'll sleep, hopefully, and I'll get our GP out when I ring at 9am.

9:59 pm

evanonut

yah (as palin would say) mine is tried, i don't got no phone # yet

9:59 pm

Just1Mar

wonder how that'd go over if it were Jews who wouldn't allow arabs or women lol

9:59 pm

evanonut

because stid, i know i can call her for free, i don't want her to have to pay for the call

10:00 pm

hurshy

and i guess what happened was that berkeley took the money, getting them to strike the women-and-jews bit, but, even though it's not in the writing, it's still... sort of... i mean, it's still sort of de facto

10:00 pm

Jacula

I would have called an ambulance or driven him myself, but he didn't want that.

10:00 pm

stidmama

"Microbial Ecology" at the Evergreen State College. I needed 4 credits biology, 4 lab credits and 4 credits in ecology or current science problems.... the class is 16 and does all of these!!!!

10:00 pm

10:01 pm

well tell me what money can't buy these days....

10:01 pm

pam

GREAT, stid!

10:01 pm

hurshy

oh dear, jacula. i do hope he will be alright.

10:01 pm

Jacula

Pam - he had an op on the crown jewels.

10:01 pm

stidmama

wow hurshy. sounds like berkeley took the bait. bad news when a school like that sells out.

10:01 pm

Just1Mar

souls come cheap

10:01 pm

GreyWoulf

Sounds very cool, Stid -- enjoy!!

10:01 pm

hurshy

that explains why he doesn't mind the operation site swelling, then

10:02 pm

stidmama

thanks woulf. and then I can worry about the literature and history and geography classes I need before I apply for the Master's in Teaching program. *sigh* I am REALLY going to miss my long days of leisure!

smaller

oh this is such an honor! first day of sign-up and i'm being considered for cohost. given this rate of success, i should have signed up for that president thing.

10:07 pm

Jacula

Hursh - I think it's normal 'settling of bluid and bruising' a day after op. If I didn't think that, he'd be in hospital already.. again. I am keeping an eye on his sleeping form though, just hoping my whipping the blanket back doesn't wake him.

10:07 pm

evanonut

smalls, where did you mail it???

10:07 pm

stidmama

smaller, I would vote for you...

10:11 pm

evanonut

i believe in politicians who say yes instead of yah

10:12 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - It might be that in this case but it wasn't when he collapsed with his underpants halfway up whilst dressing to leave after surgery on Thursday night. He really didn't care if the 3 nrses saw anything, he was more concerned if his groin dressing was going to turn red, as he told me.

10:17 pm

Jacula

Personally, stid, I think he needs medical attention and I did try to get it for him. The doc on line told me that, since he'd probably been more on his feet day after operation, blood was around and gravity would take it's course and bruising and blood staining an swelling were normal. I still want GP's diagnosis at 9am though! Even though man is sleeping.

I don't mind a bit giving clues, y' know, nor do others, but if you're independent like I am, you might like to try it

11:10 pm

hi pini

11:10 pm

tygerbryght

http://www.onelook.com/ you can put in some letters, and ? marks for each additional letter

11:11 pm

Pinikula

Tyger...when the grid is hard like this one (for me) I don't like asking for clues for everything...so sometimes I do like being a loner...

11:11 pm

Pinikula

...until time runs short! ;)

11:11 pm

Pinikula

hi ardilla

11:11 pm

tygerbryght

the default gives you ALL results, but it helps to click for "common words" - gives more manageable results

11:11 pm

Pinikula

;)

11:11 pm

tygerbryght

sometimes it works when morewords and the other lists of words by length don't get it
