1:00 am
westford
she said she went to cyber space...
1:00 am
VolleymomDee
I hate this *#! computer and server; ready to pitch it out the window; only prob is I don't want to buy a computer with vista
1:00 am
nDanLia
just realized - at 143, just snuck up
1:00 am
westford
go dan go
1:01 am
VolleymomDee
wtg ndan
1:01 am
jillibus
you're not alone in that, dee! Amazing how Vista is loathed
1:01 am
westford
another poor attempt at humor
1:02 am
westford
dee do you have cable or dsl?
1:02 am
nDanLia
;) thought of that west, but a bit tired
1:02 am
VolleymomDee
everyone I know who has bought it is livid; cable, but we are in the middle of nowhere...
1:02 am
jillibus
west, lovely fairy!
1:02 am
joshuavorbis
what are the complaints about vista?
1:03 am
westford
we were going to get the internet set up for our granddaughter she just got her first apt were all set to get her dsl and were told they don't have it in her area
1:04 am
VolleymomDee
difficult to navigate; cannot manipulate manually programs and software; graphics are cumbersome and don't work as advertised... few things I have heard so far
1:04 am
westford
jilli I looked at 40 pages of google images to get her so I'm keeping her for a few days lol
1:04 am
VolleymomDee
happened to us, too west... we live 1.5 miles too far north to even have the dsl option
1:04 am
jillibus
don't blame you, west!
1:05 am
westford
years ago I had a poster of the Apple Fairy she was beautiful but I couldn't find her
1:05 am
westford
we did find out something good though now you don't have to have a phone line to get dsl they just put it in so many have cell phones now
1:06 am
nDanLia
what's pt total?
1:06 am
jillibus
also incompatiblity with older programs, printers, etc, I hear
1:07 am
VolleymomDee
ditto that jili
1:08 am
VolleymomDee
supp none of my older software will function... and I hate the thot of changing and paying for all new software...
1:09 am
nDanLia
is that 1708 west?
1:09 am
Hugabugs
I feel exactly the same way Dee
1:09 am
westford
oh sorry was reading my point total
1:10 am
westford
where would I find it?
1:10 am
jillibus
re Vista -- my late mother used to say "new and improved means rotten"
1:10 am
VolleymomDee
:) my current computer cost almost 4k when I bought it 8 years ago (incl software, printer, scanner, etc)...who wants to spend that kind of money now? Okay, sorry for the cavetching, I'll hush for now.
1:10 am
joshuavorbis
i was a windows owner until about 2002
1:10 am
westford
surely they must be working on getting vista to work better
1:10 am
joshuavorbis
i switched then and even though i have gripes about apple, i am still very pleased
1:11 am
westford
pleased here too josh
1:11 am
jillibus
but you can't get Expert with a mac
1:12 am
westford
true true
1:12 am
joshuavorbis
i've heard about this 'expert'
1:12 am
jillibus
or can you if you run windows on it?
1:12 am
joshuavorbis
i would like to see it in action
1:12 am
Hugabugs
I love XP... can't imagine using my pc without it
1:12 am
westford
there is a program but I dont' have it yet
1:12 am
nDanLia
top of line dee? prices always drop w/in 6 'nn'onths; still use an early '90s syste'nn' for a nu'nn'ber of apps new ones 'nn'ess up [including reading/copying files fro'nn' "unreadable" disks]
1:12 am
jillibus
but then you'd be stuck with bldy Vista now...no escape!
1:12 am
VolleymomDee
my prob josh is most of the clients I work with use Microsoft Professional Suite or Microsoft Small Business; Can your apple use Word, Exel, Access, Publisher?
1:12 am
westford
I have XP on my Mac
1:13 am
VolleymomDee
I agree Hug.
1:13 am
joshuavorbis
hey, nDanLia - is your m key broken or something?
1:13 am
VolleymomDee
and share those files
1:13 am
joshuavorbis
yes, volleymomdee- i have all those programs installed right now and use them all the time
1:13 am
jillibus
I love XP too -- it were'nt broke so why did they fix it?
1:13 am
joshuavorbis
word most of all
1:14 am
joshuavorbis
sometimes i have issues converting my word files to an older pc, but definitely not so much the other way around
1:14 am
westford
my husband uses a Dell for work and doesn't like it
1:14 am
VolleymomDee
hmmm interesting... I honestly may have to investigate that
1:14 am
jillibus
well, if you have XP on your mac, can't you get Expert?
1:14 am
nDanLia
yes, owner has warranty paper; wait for dec return
1:14 am
VolleymomDee
what about picture programs for photos?
1:14 am
VolleymomDee
why not west?
1:14 am
westford
it's an older version I won't get rid of it
1:14 am
westford
outstanding dee
1:15 am
joshuavorbis
dee, the photo programs are one of the reasons that the vast majority of graphics companies use macs exclusively
1:15 am
VolleymomDee
is there anything your mac won't do that you could do before?
1:15 am
nDanLia
goal is to get all to buy new every few years to earn $$$; developers often told to li'nn'it features & put in a newer release
1:15 am
westford
as kiwi would say it's easy peezy
1:16 am
VolleymomDee
that is what I thought... they are known for graphics, pics, publishing, etc, Is that right?
1:16 am
joshuavorbis
not that i know of - the only thing with most people is the price and the learning curve when you first get one
1:16 am
joshuavorbis
though learning your way around doesn't take as long as you might think
1:16 am
VolleymomDee
so true ndan
1:16 am
westford
but they're so user friendly
1:16 am
VolleymomDee
what was cost, if you don't mind me asking?
1:16 am
jillibus
I wish someone would answer my question about using Expert on a mac running windows
1:17 am
joshuavorbis
it varies a lot, depending on what you want out of your computer
1:17 am
westford
jilli I know there is a program but I don't have it yet
1:17 am
joshuavorbis
you can spend 500 bucks if you've got a monitor/keyboard/whatever laying around already, or you can drop 20k on a super duper power mac for video editing of feature films
1:17 am
westford
you can get a fully loaded mac ibook for under 1K
1:18 am
Hugabugs
time for me to head to bed. G'nite all
1:18 am
westford
gn hugs you're the smart one
1:19 am
jillibus
night hugs -- I'm off soon too
1:19 am
westford
we get new macs and pass the old ones down
1:20 am
jillibus
to whom, west?
1:20 am
westford
children and grandchildren
1:20 am
nDanLia
yeah, found it, done
1:20 am
westford
my mother even has one of ours from 1984
1:20 am
joshuavorbis
good job, ndan
1:21 am
VolleymomDee
wow... didn't realize cost was so varied... I would never edit feature films... but I need one that handles all microsoft office programs well; will edit, manipulate, and print photos; will design greeting cards with large graphics and print them; scanner; large monitor; recipe software that would be compatible with old; good email; address book, etc... graphics and sound cards for gaming...
1:21 am
westford
that's not on the internet though
1:21 am
VolleymomDee
ok... shutting up again
1:21 am
joshuavorbis
gaming might be an issue, dee - but all the other things you list, apple definitely has, and they definitely work well
1:23 am
VolleymomDee
ty for input; I'll have to start doing comparative research on both systems
1:23 am
joshuavorbis
how do you get words that have m's in them, ndan?
1:23 am
DJGreedo
volleymomDee, if you want to play games, Windows is your only real choice
1:23 am
joshuavorbis
sorry if others have asked before
1:23 am
westford
if you visit an apple store and tell them what you need they could help
1:24 am
VolleymomDee

1:24 am
westford
jilli did you ever get that lonely e?
1:25 am
joshuavorbis
i don't have the lonely e
1:25 am
DJGreedo
but with games you have the same problem of how much to spend...$500 or $5,000
1:25 am

josh is the pc to mac program called bootleg or something?
1:26 am
VolleymomDee
bet that is frustrating for you nDan
1:26 am
joshuavorbis
what do you mean by pc to mac program?
1:26 am
nDanLia
i used to code in 1s and 0s, type fast, not bad
1:26 am
westford
being able to run things like babble expert on a mac
1:27 am
westford
and others as well
1:27 am
joshuavorbis
you mean running windows from within mac osx?
1:27 am
westford
I think so I'm not very ept
1:27 am
joshuavorbis
boot camp i think
1:27 am
jillibus
josh, I did, and shamelessly looked it up in morewords (devils are the icon thme today so I thought I'd be one)
1:27 am
joshuavorbis
though i have also heard of parallels and i forget what the program used to be called
1:27 am
westford
I got the boot part right
1:28 am
joshuavorbis
i think the difference is, with boot camp you choose when you turn on the computer to boot in windows or mac
1:29 am
flosey
back again - just received a phone call from daughter - she just completed a ProRide course - riding (my much hated vehicle) motorcycle
1:29 am
joshuavorbis
and with parallels, you can open up a program while mac osx is running, and have windows within it, though it doesn't work as well since both systems are running at the same time
1:29 am
nDanLia
et 6/27 sounds like a ja'nn'aican saying it; has to do w/ word origins
1:29 am
westford
wow flosey it's good she took a course though
1:29 am
joshuavorbis

1:48 am
VolleymomDee
wonder why they named it 7 instead of something else
1:49 am
joshuavorbis
back for a second before bed - microsoft is doing that to copy blatantly apple's way of doing things before they got to os "10" or "X"
1:50 am
joshuavorbis
or at least that is my theory :)
1:50 am
VolleymomDee
interesting
1:50 am
VolleymomDee
trying to capture better p.r. maybe
1:51 am

a good movie to rent is Pirates of Silicon Valley tells about the beginnings of Apple and Microsoft

1:55 am
VolleymomDee
he played artist Vermeer.. extremely interesting
1:55 am
GroovyKiwi
that is a good movie too dee
1:55 am

he wasn't so hot in that
1:56 am

I remember watching him in P&P and wishing he'd smile just once
1:57 am
westford
and when he finally did at the end he looked kind of goofy
1:57 am
GroovyKiwi
i fell in love with him in that lol
1:58 am

we had so many people mad at us they had to watch all 6 hours in a row couldn't shut it off

Shan't say any more about it as it will set me off, too. Will do, FMitch. I must put a pic of him on my bog. Oops, blog.
4:33 am
Atalante
I wish the Beeb would just sack Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand so everyone will stop talking about it
4:34 am
hydra
Oh, so do I. What idiots! They must have such colossal egos to think they can get away with treating people like that in the name of 'humour'
4:35 am
Atalante
I *know*
4:35 am
Atalante
Russell Brand you expect idiocy from, but Jonathan Ross ....
4:36 am
hydra
I think Brand set him off. He wanted to be a 'naughty boy' like his friend.
4:37 am
Atalante
bit old for peer pressure *sigh*!

4:38 am

Like when my friends and I were naughty ten-yr-olds and used to dial people with funny names from the fonebook. I'll never forget Albert Fu*! Poor man. And 'Tickle, The Misses'. And poor Mr Lyon, to whom we would growl regularly.
4:38 am
Atalante

4:41 am

You're right. No wonder nobody wants to be in the phone book these days. One adult female ex-friend got drunk one night and made dirty calls to men she picked at random from the directory!
4:41 am
hydra
She was just getting her own back.
4:42 am
Atalante
oooops lol
4:42 am
chickieo8
It is so good to see friendly names!!! It seems every time I enter the chatter box in mid.day no one wants to speak to me and its lonely out there!
4:42 am
hydra
I've never heard of a woman doing that before.
4:43 am
Atalante

Oh, poor chickie! Maybe they're all snatching some babble time in their lunch hours.

7:55 am
AsGreen
I believe a friend of my sister's is the director - Neil Pepe - she went to camp AND college with him.... the reason I say I believe is my parents actually saw TWO shows on Sunday, but I think they were talking about him w/regard to this one. Anyway, enjoy!!

8:08 am
EvaNadine

8:08 am
EvaNadine
isnt that a county in england?
8:08 am

Tres bien, merci, mais il fait froid!
8:12 am

8:12 am
Haz1558
It's interesting how winter woollies look so much more inviting than they did a few weeks ago.
8:13 am
lshult
afternoon all
8:13 am
EvaNadine
absolutely!
i just bought myself a pair of nice winter boots...already wore them in to work today :)

Sigh. Just broke out the winter coat today.
8:14 am
Haz1558
You're a patient man, Ishult.
8:14 am
Haz1558
It's annoying, isn't it? I know I resist winter clothes because we spend so much time in them.
8:14 am
lshult
just an ectreemly frustrated one!!!
8:15 am
lshult
that's extreemly
8:15 am
EvaNadine
only just, judi?
i broke it out a week or 2 ago...
course, i catch the bus before 7am + its quite chilly then, even if the day warms up later...
8:16 am
FMitch
There is a lovely sy8 ... a tree
8:16 am
Judi
Was very cold and windy last night. 40 degs this a.m. Supposed to warm up to the mid 50's today though.

Are there more than 3 tr's please?
8:17 am

8:17 am

8:17 am
FMitch
snow is melting where the sun has reached it but still on the ground in shady places
8:17 am
AsGreen
haz, bootcamp was cancelled today (prematurely IMO) due to weather
8:17 am
Judi
Phantom: Macaroon.
8:18 am
bichon
I think Rockaway is an Indian name or such
8:18 am
bichon
Is the server problem here fixed?
8:18 am
AsGreen
found out last night, so I ate brownies to celebrate! :)
8:18 am
FMitch

8:18 am
FMitch

8:18 am
Haz1558
Is this the right attitude, As?
8:19 am
LoriP
All righty then, thanks FM. ***whaps her with a snowball***
8:19 am
Vicuna
*puts on mittens and scarf for better Babbling*
8:19 am
FMitch
You aim has rather improved Lori *owww*
8:19 am
Judi
Oh no! Weapons of mass precipitation!
8:20 am
LoriP
Hey Vic! Maybe that'd help my typing.
8:20 am
crosshair
yaaa! we are back inbusiness i see:)
8:20 am
Vicuna
Sure, Lori. You can experiment with whether the keyboard goes inside the mittens with the hands, or out.
8:20 am
AsGreen
yes it is!! :) I've lost several lbs too, so I'm celebrating!
8:20 am
Vicuna
Hello, everyone!
8:21 am
bichon
FMItch, I love it when the British say whilst. No one says it in the US
8:21 am
crosshair
howdy vic;)
8:21 am
AsGreen
I think the lb loss is more due to the fact that I had a cold all last week - didn't eat much at all, and didn't drink wine all week.... but, whatever works! :)
8:21 am
Angelsong
I wonder what the problem with Babble's server is.
8:21 am
Vicuna
Maybe you should start a whilst trend in Connecticut, bichon.
8:22 am
Vicuna
Phantom romance. But lest you draw any conclusions, acrimony is a phantom, too.
8:22 am
EvaNadine
my BF roll shis eyes at me because i say "hence," "thus," "therefore," "ergo," "erst" -- and the such...
8:23 am
Haz1558
As, I was pursuing a theory last week that the loss of smell leads to loss of taste leads to loss of weight. A clothes peg on the nose at meal times might be effective. What do you think?
8:23 am
Judi
Interesting theory, Haz. Painful, but interesting.
8:23 am
Haz1558
He's just jealous, EvaN.
8:23 am
Vicuna
A clothes peg on the mouth might be even more effective.
8:24 am
bichon
One doesn't start trends in Connecticut. It's known as "The Land of Steady Habits"
8:24 am
Haz1558
Pride feels no pain, Judi, or something like that. Think of the benefits.
8:24 am
FMitch
back, clients will just have to be told to stop interrupting my precious babble time!
8:24 am
Haz1558
Not to be recommended for those who have undergone rhinoplasty, however.
8:24 am
EvaNadine
heh, im with vicuna!
8:24 am
AsGreen
brb - phone
8:24 am
Haz1558
No, this way, you can eat, you just get no enjoyment from your food - so you stop eating.
8:25 am
crosshair
i could stand to lose a few tastebuds then:/
8:26 am
crosshair
though cisplatin does a wonderfull job of that:/
8:26 am
Vicuna
A steady diet of pickled soybeans would also make you lose all enjoyment in your food.
8:26 am
Judi
Alas, I am cursed with too many tastebuds. I am a supertaster.
8:26 am
crosshair
last treatment tommorow ladies;)))
8:26 am
FMitch
lol I treated myself today and cooked crispy bacon and fried egg sandwich, it was so good!
8:26 am
Vicuna
Yay for crosshair!
8:26 am
crosshair
indeed:)
8:26 am
FMitch
Yay crossy!!!!
8:26 am
Anniebrook
yay, crossy!!!
8:27 am
Judi
Yay, Crossy! Going to celebrate your freedom from chemicals?
8:27 am
crosshair
too sick to celebrate judi..if last time was any indication,it will take 2 full months to get back to normal;(
8:28 am
Haz1558
We'll celebrate for you, we're good at proxy things.
8:28 am
Judi
Okay. Well, celebration post-poned until you're ready for it.
8:28 am
LoriP
Excellent news cross. We'll have the party at a latr date then.
8:28 am
crosshair
and my imune system took a hit..so im getting a needle a day for a week and have to wear a mask
8:29 am
Haz1558
A halloween mask?
8:29 am
LoriP
So are you saying no Michael Jackson jokes?
8:29 am
Judi
What's in the needle? Antibiotics and such?
8:29 am
FMitch
goodness last time we had snow in the home counties in October was 1934
8:29 am
Vicuna
(Nobody breathe on chat log.)
8:29 am
Haz1558
There's somebody (MJ) who mustn't start with the clothes peg in the nose routine.
8:29 am
crosshair
sec phone
8:30 am
Judi
Luckily, the only infestation we ever suffer here in Babble is trolls. Non-contagious as far as I know.
8:30 am
LoriP
Haz, his nose would fall off if he used your method.
8:31 am
FMitch
that and sudden sick server syndrome :(
8:31 am
Haz1558
And he's deadly thin anyway, so he doesn't really need the method.
8:32 am
LoriP
***random water cannon fire at FM***
8:32 am
Vicuna
Nooooo, Lori! Now she'll freeze solid!
8:32 am
Haz1558
His friend, Mr Osmond, is in the grid.
8:32 am
LoriP
Well, I'm pretty sure this last 32 is unattainable.
8:33 am
LoriP
***Points heat ray in FM's direction for instant defrosting***
8:33 am
Vicuna
* hands FM a towel*
8:33 am
FMitch
Gee thanks Lori, I had only just finished defrosting from this morning! .... oh thats lovely :)
8:33 am
Judi
Mr. Osmond is right next to former President Reagan.
8:34 am
Haz1558
I think you need to babble in mac and souwester from now on, FM.
8:34 am
Haz1558
(Profoundly hoping that the mention of a President's name doesn't provoke political debate)
8:35 am
FMitch
or a nie heated babble bubble
8:35 am
LoriP
***wonders how many dustwebs in the house re too many***
8:35 am
FMitch
Officiallly Lori more than 3
8:36 am
Judi
Profounding hoping you are right. I rescind my inadvertant invocation of a remotely political subject. Strike it from the record!
8:36 am
Haz1558
When they're setting off asthma attacks, you need to do something. Otherwise Health and Safety will be called in.
8:36 am
Judi
*profoundly* duh
8:36 am
LoriP
***That seems like an arbitrarily low number***
8:36 am
Haz1558
Thank you, Judi. We may just have got away with it.
8:36 am
FMitch
Ask Haz then
8:37 am
Vicuna
Oh, bother. TIme for a tedious shopping run. Back later.
8:37 am
Haz1558
You see, Lori, I think you need to keep on top of the dustweb situation. Don't let those spiders feel remotely useful. Strike them down!
8:37 am
FMitch
awe VI! you only just got her :(
8:37 am
Vicuna
But while I'm gone, feel free to discuss the candidates' views on cobweb criteria! Ha ha ha!
8:37 am
Haz1558
See you later, Vicuna.
8:37 am
EvaNadine
any of the english-persons in the chatlog ever heard of a music group called The Streets?
8:37 am
LoriP
Shopping is evil Vic. Don't do it.
8:38 am
Vicuna
(Or should I say "whilst I'm gone")
8:38 am
Haz1558
Don't look at me, EvaN. I'm old.
8:38 am
Vicuna
(Evil shopping may be, but making son go through the winter sans coat is probably even eviller.)
8:39 am
Haz1558
Whilst you are gone, Vicuna, we will endeavour to keep the chatlog flowing with intelligence and erudition.
8:39 am
LoriP
Perchance Vic will return at her earliest opportunity?
8:39 am
Haz1558
You're buying him a winter coat? You're too good to him. Would a sack not suffice?
8:39 am
LoriP
A heavy sweater is close enough.....
8:39 am
Vicuna
DO your best, do your best, and mayhap I will return anon.
8:39 am
LoriP
Do you clothe them every year? Tsk tsk.
8:40 am
Vicuna
He has a winter coat from last year... But the sleeves hardly reach his elbows this year!
8:40 am
FMitch
EvaN vaguely re The Streets
8:40 am
EvaNadine
hints for the top E?
8:40 am
Haz1558
Make do and mend. Use some curtain material to patch things.
8:40 am
Vicuna
Look, people, don't you get it? When they'r ein public and under the eyes of their teachers,e tc, I have to make it appear as if I take care of them!
8:40 am
Judi
Oops. I think I just stepped in some erudition.
8:40 am
LoriP
Aha, so he still has a coat then.
8:41 am
Haz1558
Those pesky teachers. What do they know about children, anyway?
8:41 am
LoriP
Can you be held responsible if a child misplaces their sleeves? I think not.
8:41 am
LoriP
Sorry Eva, I don't have it.
8:41 am
Haz1558
Eva - no help from here, sorry.
8:41 am
Vicuna
Anyway, I also need some frames for upcoming art show, and as that benefits no one but myself, I think it qualifies as acceptable.
8:41 am
Uneaixoise
nor here
8:42 am
FMitch
me neither
8:42 am
Haz1558
You do realise that if Vicuna boy has grown, it's because she has fed him as well?
8:42 am
Vicuna
me neither.
8:42 am
LoriP
We have a quorum!
8:42 am
Haz1558
Bye, Vicuna - don't spend any more on that coat than you have to!
8:42 am
Judi
BBL. Must balance the checkbook. Yeech. Then, must pay bills. Double yeech.
8:43 am
LoriP
Later Judi. Vic feeds them too? oh my.
8:43 am
Haz1558
That's probably worse than having to spend money on your child.
8:43 am
FMitch
oh found it - it's an et6/27. Good monkeys
8:44 am

Thank you!
8:44 am

I think the Dr sign him off for the week!
8:46 am

He may have pushed her off the edge. I hope for his sake he's feeling better.
8:46 am
Haz1558
To him, what am I talking about?
8:47 am
FMitch
gibberish!
8:47 am
LoriP
It would seem none of us are mastering coherent sentences this morn.....
8:47 am
Haz1558

Dr_God
Finish up any words you're working on, folks. I'm about to do a database check, and that usually locks the server up for 5-10 minutes. Then I'm going to restart the server, which will hopefully not take too long. So what I'm saying is, go get a cup of coffee or run an errand or two. ;)

12:01 pm
FMitch
Tsk don't be silly Haz,
12:01 pm

12:02 pm
Haz1558
But I kind of want fresh air. Even though it's cold and dark fresh air...
12:02 pm
Haz1558
She refused to go out and bring in the recycling bins. I warned her of the consequences.
12:02 pm
Atalante

12:03 pm

The shopping was ill-fated. *sigh*
12:06 pm
stidmama
it's wet back where you are, yes vi?
12:06 pm
Vicuna
I left behind the shoes I needed to exchange, and had to come back and get them. I left behind the coupon I needed for one frame, and didn't remember it the second time home, either...
12:06 pm
Haz1558
Why? Why sigh, Vi?
12:06 pm
FMitch
No one wanted to buy the kids?
12:06 pm
Vicuna
They didn't have all the sizes I needed and nothing was on sale...
12:06 pm
Atalante
oh noooo
12:06 pm
Vicuna
The coat cost more than I wanted to pay (although at least daughter's coat was super-cheap)...
12:06 pm
Haz1558
Well, don't say that we didn't want you to stay at home and babble.
12:07 pm
Vicuna
And I'll have to go back out this weekend for the rest of the frames...
12:07 pm
FMitch

12:07 pm
stidmama
oh vi! *shudder* what an experience. poor dear, sit down and have a cup of tea...
12:07 pm
Vicuna
Yes, you were right, Haz. I should have listened to you.
12:07 pm
Haz1558
I hate to suggest this, but can you blame FM for any of this?
12:08 pm
Atalante

12:08 pm
stidmama

12:09 pm
FMitch
stiddy I feel I should do the *stern mama llok* unnatural as it is and ask why you are babbling in class?
12:09 pm
stidmama
because enable is less-abled than we hoped...
12:09 pm
HollyF

12:09 pm
joey
Vi, what poem is that from? i am not well versed in poetry?
12:10 pm

12:11 pm
Haz1558
I don't know, stidmama. Should you not be having earnest discussions with your fellow students about what you've just heard?
12:11 pm
Vicuna
Oh well, take both our turns why don't you!
12:11 pm
Vicuna
By my part is:
12:12 pm
stidmama
no... I type faster than most people write. The people to my left know this stuff okay... the fellow on my right is less motivated than I am.
12:12 pm
Vicuna
But oh, that deep romantic chasm, which slanted
Down a green hill athwart a cedarn cover
12:12 pm
Atalante
so twice five miles of fertile ground with walls and somethings measured round
12:12 pm
stidmama
I am working on not being overwhelmed today. So far, so good.
12:12 pm
Haz1558
Ata's heading for disciplinary action today. Cutting and pasting clues, taking extra turns at poetry quotations, giving away 6 out of 8 letters.
12:12 pm
Vicuna
A savage place, as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
12:12 pm
Vicuna
By woman wailing for her demon lover.
12:12 pm
Vicuna
In honor of devil theme today.
12:12 pm

12:13 pm
Vicuna

12:13 pm
Vicuna
That's in between your part and mine.
12:13 pm
FMitch
She didn't!!! Ata you and I are going to have a serious talk!
12:13 pm

That sunny dome! Those caves of ice!

12:13 pm

12:28 pm
Atalante

12:28 pm
Vicuna

12:29 pm
Atalante
ah good, my pupster is back
12:30 pm
Atalante
oh! shall I tell you the amusement of earlier on today with the horribly ill husband (HIH)?
12:30 pm
Vicuna
Oh dear. Tell!
12:31 pm
Atalante
he was in his study playing games on his computers. his study is right next to the front door. I was asleep in the spare bedroom, 2 floors up. Just to set the scene. He's very ill, and I've been more or less giving in to stomach bugs for a few weeks
12:32 pm
Atalante
so while I'm "slightly ill" (according to him), he's Very Ill
12:32 pm
Atalante
so, the doorbell rings. fedex or someone with a parcel for me. does he sign for the parcel, or yell up to me waking me up and saying he can't possibly sign for it because he's wearing his dressing gown?
12:33 pm
flosey
could I have a clue for re8 please?
12:33 pm
Atalante
I'm still quite boggled as to why being in a dressing gown means you can't sign a bit of paper
12:35 pm
Vicuna
How very silly! (and annoying)
12:35 pm
Atalante
i know. and I still haven't discovered whether he managed to get the parcel - oh, the trauma when so ill - or whether I'm going to have to go down to the post office and pick it up
12:36 pm
flosey
I agree - but when a man is in pain it has to be the worst ever - no woman could possible endure such pain - hahaha very annoying!
12:37 pm
hetty
flosey, Haz gave a marvellous clue for re8 about three hours ago--something about a horse going backwards--start with backwards and then use the tail end of the equine
12:37 pm
Atalante
of course *nods seriously*
12:37 pm

1:43 pm
MonkeyGames
There's a kr?
1:43 pm
Atalante
what's the point total today?
1:43 pm

1:45 pm
MonkeyGames
Hi Katie!
1:45 pm

I think part of my confusion is I don't understand how they get the gene markers (fluorescent proteins) in the right place on the target organism's DNA...
1:45 pm

hi katie!

Neither do I, if it helps.

If it's about those DNA markers, Cross, I'd like to know...
1:47 pm

1:49 pm
Atalante
basically stid, they attach the fluorescent protein to an DNA marker - and then reattach that into the host DNA
1:50 pm
stidmama
thanks cross!
1:50 pm
Atalante
the reporter / marker gene they attach the fluorescent marker to will be a bit of DNA they understand and therefore know to which part of the gene it will attach
1:50 pm
crosshair
np stid:)
1:51 pm
stidmama
yes cross, I think this will give me what I need to ask further questions. Atalante... THIS is the kind of language that confuses me! I don't understand how they staple the damn things on!!!!
1:52 pm
Atalante
they don't staple anything anywhere lol
1:52 pm
stidmama
I think it has something to do with primers or restriction enzymes. or something.
1:53 pm

1:54 pm
crosshair
sokay stid..im a old pro.this is my third fight with the beast and the last treatment was today
1:54 pm
Atalante
if you place a new gene next to the host DNA, that piece can attach to the DNA - you know DNA has 2 strands, yeah? well it can unravel into single strands, and the new bit of marker can attach to the other side of one strand and thus get incorporated into the host DNA
1:54 pm
stidmama
OH! does it stick out the side like a methyl group?
1:54 pm
crosshair
yaa! for ata..shes got it nailed for ya:)
1:55 pm
stidmama
*hugs cross gently* I hope this time it works. You are one of my favorite canadians.
1:55 pm
Atalante
it's like a loooooong narrow jigsaw. just imagine the new gene can kick one piece out, and slot itself into the same place
1:55 pm
crosshair
:)) you get my next bacon weave sammich stid:)
1:55 pm
stidmama
so you dump the marker into solution with the DNA along with a primer of sorts that lets the marker attach
1:56 pm
stidmama
maybe...
1:56 pm
bichon
Way to go Cross. All the best
1:56 pm

This is Sam's story about a fellow oceanography professor. He knew the name and description of every known fish. He also greeted all the new UCSD students every year by name at an assembly. Then one year he just stopped greeting the students. When asked why, he said that every time he memorized a new student he forgot a fish, and the fish were more important. So, he filled up his brain,clearly.

Scrabs, the mometasone "cured" the horrid itching, but worsened the fullness.... I finished the course of mometasone drops because the itch was so bad, now the fullness is. Doc said sudafed or afrin.. I opted for sudafed... Shoudl I do the three days of Afrin instead
7:19 pm
Scrabbler
But you got injured with a wipe-out, right, N?
7:19 pm
nrkii
I live alone, and my family is 4 hours away, so surgery is not the best prospect for me

hi. this is my first time playing and i think ive picked most of it up. I dont understand though what bernice for example means when she says im missing a 'MO 5/12'. for a start how does she know that the 2nd letter is an 'o' and what does the '5/12' mean?
much thanks for any help.

tomtom at the bottom o f the page theres a link to lickety's clues. this is a list of all the words in the grid.
9:45 pm
BerniceQ
tom, if you look at your word list, you'll see every word has a letter count and a point count. read the "help" section at the top of the page for explanation of the point count. so people refer to words as MO 5/12, meaning a word starts with MO, has five letters and 12 points.
9:45 pm
reparteena
Tom--she is missinf a word beg. with MO- 5 letters-12 pts.

tom, at the bottom of the page in the "friends of babble" section, you'll see a link to "lickity's babble clues," which will give you the stats (first two letters, letter count and point count) for all the words in the grid.
9:46 pm
