2:22 am

Atalante

I'm still hoping mine magically sorts itself out by itself

2:23 am

Frances

I gave up on that a long time ago.

2:23 am

Atalante

I'm ever hopeful

2:25 am

Frances

When people ask what I do in the winter (no cricket) I say housework. So unless I want to be called a liar I should sort myself out.

2:25 am

Atalante

sad about the England cricket tour

2:26 am

Frances

Very sad. However, on current form it avoids a complete whitewash!

2:26 am

Atalante

I know :P sneaky, eh?

2:26 am

Frances

If all else fails, run.

2:27 am

Atalante

one shouldn't laugh in the current circumstances in India, but ....!

Atalante

and he's right, there was everyone there. but! about 95% women and 5% men

2:47 am

Frances

I thought that Katie

2:47 am

Atalante

one teenaged girlie nearly fainted when she met him. really!

2:50 am

Atalante

she had to grab onto the table to stop falling over

2:51 am

LoriP

Since all stars and famous people are untouchable for us mere mortals, their sexuality is irrelevant to our fantasy. :p

2:52 am

Atalante

as fanfic writers take full advantage of

2:52 am

Atalante

that wasn't very grammatical

2:53 am

KatieMcG

I don't know what fanfic is

2:53 am

Atalante

lucky you!

2:53 am

Frances

LOL Aat

2:53 am

Atalante

lots of (mainly) teenaged girls writing stories involving characters from (eg) lord of the rings, harry potter, etc

2:53 am

Frances

Oops - Ata

2:53 am

Atalante

their imaginations can be very vivid. especially adult-written fanfic

2:53 am

KatieMcG

I get some babble time this morning as the motorway is shut and I don't know how to get to work

2:54 am

KatieMcG

Ahhhh now it makes sense

2:54 am

Atalante

stay home! work from home!

2:54 am

Atalante

you get threesomes involving Gandalf, a hobbit, and an orc. etc.

2:55 am

KatieMcG

it is the last day of the company and we are going out for lunch. more importantly I have the bosses leaving pressie

2:55 am

LoriP

Just stay home Katie, you deserve a long weekend.

2:55 am

Atalante

daga is a word. it is tagalog for rat

2:55 am

Atalante

hmmmm. annoying!

2:56 am

KatieMcG

that is dagu I thought of buying two recently

2:56 am

Frances

Enable doesn't recognise German and you want tagalog?

2:56 am

Atalante

daga is rat (plural) then

2:56 am

Atalante

because mga daga means lots of rats

2:56 am

MonkeyGames

That's degu, Katie...

2:57 am

KatieMcG

lol ata. decided with 3 cats that 2 degu were not a good idea. sorry monkey you are right

2:57 am

Atalante

but they were ok with Fuggy!

2:58 am

Frances

.......and other unmentionable words!

2:58 am

KatieMcG

Fuggy came first and they would have eaten him if they could have got to him

2:59 am

Atalante

little monsters! I was looking through your facebook pics, I hadn't realised how beautiful Rhubarb is

2:59 am

KatieMcG

Isn't she. Crumble is the cutest in terms of temperament though

2:59 am

Frances

OK, I'm off to dive into the mess called home. Have a good day and if I get fed up with housework I shall return. Bye.

2:59 am

MonkeyGames

Bye Frances!

3:00 am

LoriP

Have a good one Frances.

3:00 am

KatieMcG

bye Frances

3:00 am

Atalante

bye frances!

3:00 am

Atalante

I must show pics of Rhubarb to sister. She had ab identical looking cat. except fatter

3:01 am

Frances

....back. That didn't take long. No, seriously, I'm going.

3:01 am

KatieMcG

Crumble is on a diet but the other two are ok weight wise

3:01 am

KatieMcG

Lol Frances

3:02 am

Atalante

Lily was a huge cat. Not so much fat really as *big*. But she slimmed down to weigh only 3lb when she was dying - she got thyroid cancer, poor babe

3:03 am

KatieMcG

bless

3:03 am

KatieMcG

crumble is on my lap now makes it difficult to type

3:03 am

Atalante

awwww

3:03 am

Atalante

hobbit is pesting at me. it's walkies time

3:04 am

Atalante

she puts her front paws up on my chair arm and either just *gazes* at me, or paws at me. she makes her wishes very clear!

3:04 am

LoriP

Hobbits internal clock is working well. :)

3:05 am

Atalante

she's really quite good at that. the BST to GMT change always confuses her for a few days though, that's always amusing

3:05 am

mrpresident

evening all :)

3:06 am

MonkeyGames

Hi Mr. P!!!

3:06 am

KatieMcG

HI mr p, haven't seen you for ages, how did the move go?

3:07 am

hydra

Hi mrp, Monkey, Lori, Ata and Katie.

3:07 am

Atalante

hi mrp!

3:07 am

Atalante

hi hydra!

3:07 am

KatieMcG

hi hydra

3:07 am

Atalante

well I'd better obey the Dog In Charge. bbs!

3:07 am

mrpresident

hi hi hi all :))
move went well. we are unpacked and enjoying the house very much!

3:07 am

KatieMcG

later ata. that's good news mr p

3:07 am

MonkeyGames

Glad to hear it!

3:08 am

hydra

Very pleased to hear it! I once moved into a flat, hated it and put it back on the market next day!

3:08 am

mrpresident

hmmmm, is this one more difficult that I thought?

3:09 am

KatieMcG

boy you must have really hated it hydra

3:09 am

mrpresident

oh hydra! that would have been awful!

3:09 am

mrpresident

all that moving in and out... no fun there

3:09 am

KatieMcG

I have only got 39 so far mr p

3:09 am

MonkeyGames

I have 67 but that is all there are.

3:10 am

hydra

It was horrendous. The people upstairs were like a herd of elephants. The carpet was full of moth grubs and the cupboard had hidden dry rot!

3:10 am

MonkeyGames

Ewwwww!

3:10 am

KatieMcG

lol Mg

3:10 am

KatieMcG

an expensive horrendous

3:10 am

MonkeyGames

There are DEFINITLEY only 7 b's.

3:11 am

KatieMcG

I've only got two of them!

3:11 am

mrpresident

I have been getting so so many stories from people renting about how bad the market is... nothing is being repaired and they are miserable in their homes.
It has become very bad here

3:12 am

hydra

I've always had bad luck with buying property. In my first, there was a dope-dealing bass guitar player who strummed at 4 am when I had to get up for walk next morning. The second was under the Concorde flight path. Another had criminals and knife fights next door. And those were in GOOD areas of London like Muswell Hill!

3:12 am

hydra

I'm thinking of renting soon so I can get my belongings out of storage. No room for them in my boyfriend's house. Then I'll divide my time between my place and his.

3:12 am

KatieMcG

thank goodness Crumble has moved my arms were killing me

3:13 am

KatieMcG

It's not nice having your stuff away hydra you have my sympathy

3:13 am

hydra

Aah! Bless him. Maybe you need a cat sling round your neck. No, it's not good and it costs Â£200 a month.

3:14 am

MonkeyGames

Well, have to walk the dog and do the shopping and hit the post office before getting Waltyer-- school is a half day on Fridays at his age. Have fun everyone!

3:14 am

hydra

Bye Mlonkey!

3:15 am

hydra

Sorry, Katie. Bless her!

3:15 am

hydra

Just checked and found Crumble is a girl cat.

3:16 am

KatieMcG

don't worry about it hydra she doesn't take offense. As hubby said the other day "there isn't a bad bone in her"

3:17 am

hydra

Flad refused his breakfast this morning. We're wondering what, or who, he ate in the night!

3:18 am

hydra

Just can't find the ar4. How stupid can I be?

3:19 am

hydra

Got it now. Doh!

3:21 am

mrpresident

I have never seen an 's' in a grid be so underused for a plural!

3:21 am

hydra

Good point, mrp. You're right.

3:26 am

KatieMcG

Motorway not opening till 12pm I could be going to places i've never been before to get to work!

3:30 am

KatieMcG

this is such a mean grid, I still only have 43 words!

3:31 am

hydra

why is it closed, Katie? Accident?

3:32 am

KatieMcG

yep 4 lorries and a van. I have an alternative route which takes me on futher up but it is closed there as well. Might have to go via Derby which is a very long way for a short cut

3:33 am

hydra

Good luck! I shall be passing through Derby soon by train to visit friend in Cromford

3:34 am

hydra

I don't mean soon as in today. A few weeks' time.

3:34 am

KatieMcG

Derby station is horrible I hope you don't have to get off the train!

3:34 am

hydra

Yes, to change to local line. It's not as bad as Reading station.

3:36 am

KatieMcG

Derby is just very dark as there are problems with the concrete so all the pillars are wrapped

3:36 am

hydra

At Reading, you have to charge up and down steep flights of stairs with all your luggage when they change the platform at the last minute. I got food poisoning there from a sandwich I bought, and the ticket machine only spat out half my ticket to Cornwall so I was in trouble!

3:37 am

hydra

There are some places to which you never want to go again! Now I go into Paddington and out again.

3:38 am

KatieMcG

I can see why Reading is not your favourite station hydra

3:39 am

hydra

Well, must go. Hope you get to work all right, Katie.

3:41 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all.

G'd morning Haz, bf, anyone I missed.

3:50 am

Haz1558

Good morning Lori(Canada) How are you?

3:50 am

LoriP

Oops, congratulations bf!

3:51 am

LoriP

I'm evil as always, and you? :p

3:51 am

Haz1558

Wicked.

3:52 am

LoriP

You've been busy lately, are things more leisurely today?

3:52 am

Haz1558

Yes, I can afford a little more time although I still have things to do.

3:53 am

Haz1558

Has Ata come down to earth yet after her JB encounter?

3:53 am

LoriP

No. Hopelessly floating...

3:54 am

LoriP

I don't think she'll land until some time next week.

3:54 am

Haz1558

We'll get FM on fire hose duty if she gets too bad.

3:55 am

Haz1558

She's been on a training course to improve her aim. FM was always enthusiastic but lacked accuracy in the past.

3:56 am

LoriP

lol I'm sure. Is Babble paying for the course, or is she footing the bill?

3:56 am

Haz1558

It's in Babble's best interests so Dr-G has agreed to pay. I suppose you could say that the next few who sign up will be paying.

3:57 am

Haz1558

Pro-dom comes with a price - the opportunity to be hosed down by FM.

3:58 am

Haz1558

What's your strategy with this grid, Lori? I've resorted to a kind of stealth - I pretend I'm not looking and the words kind of reveal themselves. But they're slow....

3:59 am

SamanthaJoy

I think the avearge price for a pro dom depends on the part of the country, but here it's s couple hundred dollars per hour ;)

4:00 am

LoriP

I'm feeling very random today, thus that's my approach. With that in mind, I can delude myself in to thinking I don't have 15 words left....

4:00 am

LoriP

:D @ Samantha

4:02 am

Haz1558

Random seems to be working for you, in that case.

4:03 am

LoriP

Yesterday's grid was an esteem killer. I bailed to the list with 50 odd left, and...wow, good thing I did. Some weird words.

4:03 am

Haz1558

It was very strange, I agree.

4:12 am

Yowsa! Monkeyed a CRAZY go 4/8 6/18 combo. Ack

4:30 am

LoriP

Nicely done on 'yer av Haz.

4:30 am

Haz1558

Thank you, thank you.

4:31 am

LoriP

11 left, and they're certainly not leaping at me by any stretch of the imagination.

4:33 am

Haz1558

No, kind of staging a 'catch me if you can' scenario.

Hello, Haz

4:41 am

This grid has everything. Music, executions, babblets, medical priorities, Japanese words, French words. And that blessed eagle's nest. All life is here.

Clawed my way down to 9, and am fearinf gor my mental health at this point.

4:44 am

Haz1558

You are a woman of tenacity. I caved at 16. You have checked for plurals?

4:44 am

LoriP

I'd also love to stop trying adroit as my last a word.

4:44 am

Atalante

except no volcano

4:44 am

Haz1558

It would have been lovely, wouldn't it?

4:44 am

LoriP

Was that some kind of dig, or friendly advice? :p

4:45 am

Haz1558

Hello Ata! No volcano, you're right. There's such a thing as overkill.

4:45 am

LoriP

Hobbit's spent already? wb Ata

4:45 am

Haz1558

Friendly advice? From me?

4:45 am

o-o

ai 6 -- past tense

Atalante

4:45 am

Haz1558

Yes, ai6 - the pilot's mascot

4:47 am

Atalante

I love that Beowulf's mead hall is a word. That makes me happy

4:47 am

Haz1558

It's not raining, Ata. That's FM manning the fire hose. She'll turn nasty if you seem to be getting past yourself with JB talk.

4:47 am

Atalante

I've hardly mentioned him! *gasp* but did you look at the pretty pics?

4:48 am

LoriP

I've always thought FM stood for FireMan

4:48 am

Haz1558

Very pretty pics.

4:48 am

Haz1558

Lori(Canada) has finally figured it out (good one!)

4:48 am

Atalante

I am still immensely smug though cos he said my Hobbit was lovely

4:49 am

Haz1558

Let's think about this. Would he say anything else to a woman with a crazed look in her eye?

4:49 am

LoriP

***cocker rescue giggle moment***

4:49 am

Haz1558

And you already knew that he was partial to the breed.

4:49 am

A bigger test would have been a picture of a Chinese hairless. You'd have known for sure that he was lying.

4:50 am

LoriP

Go Veru!

4:50 am

Haz1558

Or is it a Mexican hairless? One of those baldy things anyway.

4:50 am

Verucasalt

good morning beautiful babblers... happy babbling

4:52 am

HOWEVER, we know that Hobbit is lovely. It was a given that he would think so, otherwise we'd think he was blind or deluded.

Oh, I thought you might have been unpacking the parcel. Could it contain John Barrowman?

5:07 am

Atalante

It does come from America!

5:08 am

Haz1558

Ooooh!

5:08 am

Atalante

but I can't open it cos I know it contains Christmas stuff

5:09 am

FMitch

Morning all
Lovely pics of JB Ata, morning Haz and BR :)

5:09 am

Haz1558

Oh well. You'll have to contain yourself for a while. Is Hobbit interested?

5:10 am

Atalante

she will be when I open it, cos it'll smell of Ayla's dog

5:10 am

Atalante

she's too busy sleeping at the moment

5:10 am

Haz1558

Good morning FMitch! Ata thought it was raining, I've told her that it's you on fire hose duty (Lori(Canada) reckons that FM stands for fireman) and you'll turn nasty if she waxes too lyrical about you know who.

5:11 am

o-o

hello, FM

5:11 am

Haz1558

I take it Hobbit and Ayla's dog haven't met yet?

5:11 am

FMitch

lol trust Lori

5:11 am

Atalante

nooooo ... one day they will though, I'm sure. Ro would benefit from having Hobbit around actually, she might calm him down a bit

5:12 am

Haz1558

Hobbit as a calming influence? Ro must be VERY bouncy.

5:13 am

FMitch

It looks like a 'intersting' grid today wy too many vowels.

5:13 am

FM Financial Management

5:13 am

Atalante

he's a 18month old heeeler / collie mix

5:13 am

Haz1558

A good one, Babble.

5:13 am

Haz1558

That explains everything, Ata.

5:14 am

FMitch

BR's suggestion is preferable to being a fireman

5:14 am

Atalante

didn't think I needed to say more

5:14 am

FMitch

Fundamentally Mad could be another one

5:14 am

o-o

or fiscal management

5:15 am

If you specialised in sorting out the affairs of firemen you could be FMFM.

Haz1558

Husband picked up his new car yesterday. Now comes a month of him trying to work out how things work without consulting any instruction booklets.

5:19 am

FMitch

OK this is not finding words **does a graceful dive into the pool*
Why is it me refuse to read instructions or maps?

5:19 am

Atalante

doesn't it come with instructions??!

5:20 am

Haz1558

Reading instructions takes away the fun out of poking and opening and pressing buttons to see what they do.

5:20 am

Atalante

ohhhh. yes very true

5:21 am

Haz1558

He happily reads maps, but not instructions. PHone...

5:22 am

Atalante

well at least he's useful for one thing

5:23 am

Haz1558

I'm back.

5:23 am

FMitch

Ata meant to ask - what was JB actually signing - book or CD?

5:24 am

Atalante

CD

5:24 am

Haz1558

Was the CD playing in the background?

5:24 am

Atalante

ohhhhhh yes. all blooming afternoon

5:25 am

Haz1558

Did people sing along?

5:26 am

Atalante

one of the M&S staff girls did. It was cringeworthy

5:26 am

Haz1558

I mean, it's one thing to show a picture of your cocker spaniel, true fans show their devotion by singing along.

5:26 am

Haz1558

Maybe the M&S girl thought it was X factor or something.

5:26 am

Atalante

there are nearly all old songs on the CD. too old for me to know the words

5:27 am

FMitch

*shakes head in Ata's direction*

5:27 am

Haz1558

Ah, the old songs are the best. (Thinking wistfully of the singsongs during the Blitz)

5:28 am

Atalante

some were even from the 70s!

5:28 am

FMitch

*perks up*

5:28 am

Haz1558

As long ago as that?

5:29 am

Atalante

yep!

5:29 am

Haz1558

I've got a mental picture of FM in her turquoise dungarees again.

5:29 am

FMitch

FM - funky mama!

5:30 am

Haz1558

Those were the days when she would bo5/20 on down to the disco.

5:30 am

Atalante

the fav photo I've got of my mother is her wheeling me somewhere in a pram, I was just a few weeks ago, but it was a proper old-fashioned pram, and she was wearing a skinny rib bright green jumper and AWFUL bright yellow flares

5:31 am

oodleberry

oodleberry

7:50 am

flosey

lol, I always soak the fruit in brandy way ahead of time - don't have to age it as long

7:50 am

aslindy

The recipe actually called it Texas Pecan Candy cake... and I use rum instead of brandy. =)

7:50 am

7:54 am

crosshair

ive been contemplating skype..take my internet off the phone line and hook up cable inter net,get skype then thell bell canada to go take a flying leap off a short dock

7:55 am

oodleberry

i have bell too... it seems a bit steep I agree cross

7:56 am

kje

i only have a cell phone and the computer dsl - gave up a landline with the move... decided to see what it would be like since lots of young people do it... no sense anymore to have both

7:56 am

crosshair

the base service is more than your long distance charges with bell:(

7:57 am

crosshair

what about 911 serivce with skype kje?

7:57 am

oodleberry

oh who suggested the other day to get a cell phone cause I missed a call from a prospective employer?

7:57 am

crosshair

i did oodle

7:57 am

oodleberry

well I did

7:57 am

kje

911 on cell phone if needed (as i did when broke ankle) - works fine

7:57 am

herinfernallady

I only have my mobile and a portable internet as we have only one carrier in the house and they suc

7:58 am

oodleberry

so now I have more mobility

7:58 am

crosshair

and with skype?..i hear that 911 cannot trace the call if you cannot speak

7:58 am

crosshair

good stuff oodle

7:59 am

herinfernallady

Good Oodle make sure it works for you not the other way round

7:59 am

kje

i only use skype for overseas stuff, mostly.... my cell phone for everything else

7:59 am

crosshair

ahh

7:59 am

kje

cute icon pic herin

8:00 am

crosshair

cause the lowest i can get my bell bill(and this is making NO long distance calls) is $44.00

8:00 am

herinfernallady

KJE i understand that. My mobile has 500 min free to other users of the same carrier. Since the b.f is on the same and so is my g.f it works

8:00 am

oodleberry

ok what is the dif tween skyp and msn ... you can do the same with msn though

8:00 am

herinfernallady

Thanks KJE

8:01 am

kje

skype allows you to talk, msn is just instant messaging, unless it has changed

8:01 am

herinfernallady

Yep. I use msn to natter to my friends (typing) I dont ahve skype.

8:01 am

kje

skype is completely free... and can talk and use camera also if you want

8:02 am

crosshair

you CAN send 2 minute voive packets via msn now..but i wouldnt use it for extended voice chat

8:02 am

oodleberry

but I think you can do that with msn too

8:02 am

kje

skype operates voice wise exactly like a phone

8:02 am

crosshair

ima gonna google skype im thinking

8:03 am

herinfernallady

SKype is like a phone. MSN is good to type chat

8:03 am

kje

via the camera... it is like the person is there - a friends kid did the shabbat blessing the other day via skype from denmark... his dad held the computer and would point it around so that the kid could see evryone - it was funny

8:04 am

kje

and of course, we could see him

8:06 am

kje

the world is getting smaller and smaller via technology, it is amazing

8:06 am

kje

8:07 am

8:09 am

kje

i have a cousin in iraq who keeps up with his very young kids that way... very different than military men years ago who would not see/hear their families for more than a year

8:09 am

oodleberry

it is all in my imagination kje... nothing is really as it seems... your computer is in the control of...THE BABBLE ZONE

8:10 am

kje

that is actually kind of true oodle - LOLOL

8:10 am

flosey

yes, that is truly great kj, so great to be able to see your kids while over there

8:11 am

o-o

be even greater if he did not have to go there in the first place

8:11 am

flosey

right BabRab

8:11 am

kje

i also have friends that watch movies together over the internet while in different countries... they make a movie date, upload from netflix simultaneously, then chat via skype to comment while watching - like they were actually together

8:12 am

kje

i agree BR - hopefully obama will get them out soon

8:12 am

flosey

amazing really isn't it kj, better than being in the movie where you have to be quiet!

In my attempt to get this house in order (it is a small apartment) after 4 months of trying to not kill my back further, is it wrong of me to keep this one toy? It's a baby toy. Walter never plays with it. It was given to uys by the person we bought our stroller form while I was pregnant. It's a little red pony I named Steinbecks. Anyway, the person who gave it to us turned out to be his radiologist later while he was critical at two days old. Someone tell me it's not silly to keep it...

Afternoon, peeps.

11:32 am

Haz1558

Do I sound convincing?

"This is Dr Hazel 1558. I'm listening"

11:32 am

Good evening all......phaeton, I care!

Congrats wvt!!

11:34 am

Atalante

tell us your childhood phobias! we'll analyse them!

11:34 am

Haz1558

No, it's not. At least you get the clues! And it's nice just to have a conversation without going into all the whys and wherefores of your life.

11:34 am

phaeton

Go ahead Judi....I'm tough!

11:34 am

Standing by with first aid kit, careful Judi, dont hurt her !!

Haz1558

Had any bad dreams lately?

11:35 am

phaeton

SPIDERS ATA

11:35 am

Judi

I'm kidding. Torture is so unseemly. Besides, tickling is much more effective.

11:35 am

Atalante

hmmm. anyone know anything caring to say about spiderphobia?

11:35 am

Haz1558

Oooh. Spiders. This one will take a lot of work.

11:35 am

phaeton

No, but I probably wouldn't share them anyhow

11:36 am

phaeton

I was surprised with myself when I asked for prayer for my granddaughter last June...I just did the first thing I could think of

11:36 am

Haz1558

Caring things about spiderphobia? You're not alone!

11:36 am

Judi

Don't watch the movie "Arachnaphobia". That will give anyone nightmares.

11:36 am

Haz1558

Was that the little girl in Hong Kong?

11:37 am

Atalante

share if you want, don't if you don't. we care anyway *nods wisely*

11:37 am

phaeton

Never! Judi, can't stand crawly things...won't even watch Charlottes web

11:37 am

phaeton

Thanks Ata

11:37 am

Judi

Wow, Phae. You've got it bad!

11:37 am

rosalie4

Charlotte's web is good

11:37 am

Haz1558

11:38 am

Atalante

11:39 am

Judi

What about... Spiderman?

11:39 am

phaeton

So, can we now chat about nicer things ...like fairies and sugar plums? :)

11:39 am

Haz1558

Hooray! You finally got those 5 bo words?

How many DA words? Or did I ask that already?

11:41 am

Judi

I'm feeling very thrifty this year. I'm thinking of going to the Dollar Store to buy my Christmas cards.

11:41 am

Haz1558

OKay, what subject will we talk about?

11:41 am

phaeton

Judi...send Ecards

11:41 am

rururocks

don't think I could stand shopping today.. too brutal

11:41 am

Atalante

I met John Barrowman yesterday! Did y'all know that???!!

11:42 am

phaeton

Who?

11:42 am

Haz1558

(John Barrowman is an actor/singer who appears in Dr WHo)

11:42 am

Judi

Mmm. I'm not a big fan of e-cards. I like to make the postal employees work.

11:42 am

caitlyn

LOL Ata, did you get his autograph?

11:42 am

phaeton

Ok, pay their salaries...that are already inflated

11:42 am

Haz1558

Ata is very keen on him. She's the next best thing to being a stalker, if truth be told.

11:43 am

phaeton

Dr. WHo who?

11:43 am

Judi

Do I detect a note of ... SMUGNESS in your tone, Ata????

11:43 am

Atalante

no, that's Lizsark. She's the real Barrowman stalker!

11:43 am

rururocks

wonder what his partner would think of that?

11:43 am

wvteach

time to get some work done - bye all

11:43 am

Haz1558

Dr Who - BBC series that's been going on for decades. Sci-fi stuff.

11:43 am

Haz1558

Bye wv.

11:44 am

Atalante

smug? moi??!!

11:44 am

Judi

Watched an episode of Extras where Ricky Gervais played a "space serpent" on Dr. Who. Very funny. Think Dr. Who is silly though. Very low budget.

11:44 am

Haz1558

Nobody has ever called Ata smug before. I'm confused.

11:44 am

phaeton

Ok,thanks Haz

11:45 am

Atalante

not any more!

11:45 am

Judi

It's true, Haz. She plays all innocent, but in reality - smug-o-rama.

11:45 am

Judi

It's a veritable smugasboard.

11:46 am

Atalante

of course!

11:46 am

Haz1558

But she's a bearable smug. Others aren't.

11:46 am

caitlyn

Stoopid internet connection !!
Ata you are not smug are you?

11:46 am

stidmama

*GROAN* hi all...

11:46 am

I suppose you don't get to be Einstein's granddaughter without a little bit of smugness sticking.

11:47 am

caitlyn

((((((stid))))))) Hi, how are you?

11:47 am

Haz1558

Hello stid. Are you ill?

11:47 am

caitlyn

Hi Tri

11:47 am

Judi

I tease because I love.

11:47 am

Haz1558

But Ata. Is John Barrowman similarly smug today. 'I met Atalante from Babble yesterday!'

11:47 am

Trifioso

awesome! Totally relaxing, just wonderful. Okay, so I am only DYING to know how the john barrowman experience went....

11:47 am

rururocks

I love to tease

11:47 am

Haz1558

Because you were groaning, stid.

11:48 am

stidmama

*faint* you met JOHN BARROWMAN!!!! *sigh*

11:48 am

phaeton

How many R/6's?

11:48 am

Atalante

I should hope he is!

11:48 am

stidmama

oh. well, I am a little ill from all the smugness floating around.

11:48 am

Haz1558

Settle back. Ata is about to go into smugasphere.

11:48 am

Trifioso

OMG, you met him???? Wait til I tell my friend Amy, she is going to or6

11:48 am

Atalante

see? Stid understands!

11:48 am

stidmama

and if John isn't smug from meeting our Atalante, then he's not worth the effort

11:48 am

Haz1558

Just one r 6.

11:49 am

Atalante

*SMUGWORLD*

11:49 am

Judi

The feeling will pass, Stid... like a methane cloud.

11:49 am

caitlyn

She still hasnt told me if she got his autograph

11:49 am

Atalante

yes, I did. And an autograph for Lizsark too

11:49 am

phaeton

ty Haz

11:49 am

Haz1558

She used a photograph of Hobbit. That innocent dog, used as a ploy.

11:49 am

Atalante

and he complimented my Hobbit

11:49 am

stidmama

no autograph for me??? *sad look*

11:50 am

Trifioso

ohhhhh heaven!

11:50 am

Atalante

tricksy :D

11:50 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, phae.

11:50 am

Atalante

liz asked first :P

11:50 am

Judi

Was he suitably impressed that you were a second generation product of the fruit of Einstein's loins?

11:50 am

Haz1558

When will you sell it on e-bay, Ata?

11:51 am

Atalante

*gasp* I shall treasure it forever!

11:51 am

Haz1558

Ooooh yes, did you tell him about Grandpa?

11:51 am

phaeton

One RH word?

11:51 am

stidmama

Judi

LOL, Cait. Perverted mind.

11:53 am

caitlyn

He was on TV this morning and Im sure he mentioned you Ata

11:53 am

stidmama

we are watching the local TV... stidkid#1 will be on soon. with his H.S. band.

11:53 am

Atalante

11:53 am

Haz1558

Did he sing this morning?

11:54 am

stidmama

Look for the least tall trumpet player...

11:54 am

Atalante

yes, much to katie's disgust

11:54 am

Judi

Oh, how sweet, Ata. He can call you for puppy raising tips. Swanky cocktail parties are in your future at his estate, no doubt.

11:55 am

rururocks

puppy sitting is likely too

11:55 am

caitlyn

phone.back in a mo

11:55 am

stidmama

cute pups!

11:55 am

Haz1558

The dogs are sweet. But do assure Hobbit, that in the words of the song 'Nothing compares to you'

11:56 am

stidmama

well, let's be honest... one Hobbit = 100 other dogs. of any breed.

11:56 am

Atalante

of course! oh - his ex-black cocker was gorgeous *finds pic*

11:56 am

Haz1558

Now hold on, stidmama. Spangle is in the room.

11:57 am

stidmama

oh, well that's easy to fix... one Spangle = 10 Hobbit.

11:57 am

Haz1558

And she's looking downright woebegone at such a suggestion.

11:57 am

Atalante

this is how I knew he'd love HObbit: http://tinyurl.com/5pdwsw

11:57 am

stidmama

stopping now while I still have a head...

11:57 am

Atalante

Spangle is worth at least 120 other dogs

Well, you know, back sucks. It's just going to do that, apparrently. But otherwise OK. I sent my open application letter to a friend for proofreading (about that place I would LOVE to work), and she said it was really excellent, so I'm right pleased about that. Letters are entirely different here... and not just by dint of beingin Dutch.

12:19 pm

stidmama

that's wondeful, inge! must have been nice to have that vantage point.

12:20 pm

I have this idea I'm going to rethink the "sugardaddy" aspect though

3:44 pm

Vicuna

Oh right, Pini. And she doesn't need to dispose of a sourdaddy.

3:45 pm

mo

unithorn ... a bit tricky today!!

Pinikula

been there, done that, vi

3:45 pm

Vicuna

Did you use the basement method?

3:45 pm

Pinikula

I wish!

3:46 pm

mo

or the attic?

3:46 pm

Vicuna

People do have a tendency to ask awkward questions about that, though.

3:46 pm

Pinikula

Sadly, neither...however, I did see him a few weeks ago when he came to see my dau for her 22nd birthday...

4:11 pm

kje

1611 here and I will be leaving soon to meet friends for margaritas

4:12 pm

unithorn

Ooh...margaritas! Sounds good.

4:12 pm

kje

4:13 pm

kje

4:13 pm

Pinikula

it's a restaurant out there that has that kind of happy hour

4:14 pm

unithorn

See, I can't find a good mix. Any place here that makes a good margarita has mediocre food, and the best places for mexican food either don't sell booze or make watery margaritas....no justice in the world.

4:14 pm

kje

never heard of it pini - must be an oregon thing (and they no nothing about mexican : )

4:14 pm

mo

too much food and booze at this time of night.

4:14 pm

Pinikula

4:14 pm

Pinikula

I think you'd be surprised! ;)

4:14 pm

kje

where is here uni?

kje

4:15 pm

unithorn

West Coast

4:15 pm

kje

pini - when i moved to MD, everyone was convinced they knew the best little mexican place - NOT!

4:15 pm

Pinikula

Unit is down the road from me by about 3 hours!

4:15 pm

Pinikula

Oh, I didn't say we had the best...but we do have some pretty decent authentic places...

4:15 pm

mo

must make my quiet exit ... goodnight all.

4:15 pm

kje

what is acceptable up there generally is not in CA, AZ, NM, or TX

4:16 pm

Pinikula

...but like Unit said, nothing that has both good drink and good food...

4:16 pm

unithorn

Acutally, I've had some decent Mexican while here in Oregon...and anyone that's had REAL Mexican knows the difference.

4:16 pm

unithorn

Man...I was cruising right along with this grid, and it's like I randomly crashed into a brick wall.

4:45 pm

Pinikula

Oh, we've all experienced that at some point today!

4:46 pm

Scrabbler

Me too, so I just opened the list, am I am going, "Duh! How did I miss THOSE?!"

4:46 pm

Scrabbler

be5 anyone?

4:46 pm

Pinikula

be5 = started

4:46 pm

unithorn

I've never opened Lickety's list. I'm making myself complete a grid based on my own brainnoodles (and clues, to be fair) before I do that.

4:47 pm

Scrabbler

Well, isn't that just a DUH moment, again! TY, Pini

4:47 pm

Scrabbler

Uni, I get as far as I can, then, in the interest of time, I open the list.

4:47 pm

Pinikula

yw scrabs...

4:47 pm

unithorn

I've only been coming to the site for a couple of weeks and rarely have the time (let alone the brains) to finish, so yeah. Huzzah for pointless goals.

4:47 pm

Pinikula

I open the list after finding what I can on my own and from clues -- ok...when I'm desparate!

4:48 pm

Pinikula

go unit go!

4:48 pm

Scrabbler

I need a break--BBS

4:49 pm

MLFAN17

Does anyone know anything about installing anti virus programs?

4:54 pm

Pinikula

some...what are you trying to do?

4:55 pm

MLFAN17

intall an anti virus program from a disk

4:55 pm

MLFAN17

cd rom sorry

4:56 pm

Pinikula

yes

4:56 pm

Judi

Hi, kids. Shut down any other programs you have running, MLFAN. Then start the CD rom.

4:56 pm

Pinikula

hi judi

4:56 pm

SeanS

okay, finally gonna start trying to get out of here!

4:56 pm

Judi

Also, disable any firewall and/or current virus protection you may already have.

4:56 pm

MLFAN17

Judi, if i get off the internet how do i check to see if other programs are running or not?

4:57 pm

Pinikula

(Start it by clicking the START button and then RUN...)

4:57 pm

SeanS

have a good night all, and good luck with babbling

4:57 pm

Pinikula

night sean!

4:57 pm

Judi

Sorry - should have said close out other applications - like word, excel, etc.

4:58 pm

MLFAN17

o i turn my fireewall off?

4:58 pm

Judi

It is okay to exit out of your internet browser as well. Your new anti-virus software will make any internet connections it needs once it starts running.

4:59 pm

Judi

Yes, turn off firewall or program may not load correctly or completely.

5:00 pm

MLFAN17

i ahve NOrton and i ahve a disk for save and restore do i need to do that first?

5:00 pm

Judi

Consequently, you will have to stop Babbling as well. (Sad, but true.)

5:00 pm

MLFAN17

Yes Judi that much i know lol

5:00 pm

Pinikula

off to play cards...back later

5:00 pm

MLFAN17

bye pinik

5:01 pm

Judi

You shouldn't need to store/save anything. Just disable Norton before you load the new anti-virus software. Once the new AV ware is installed, your computer should prompt you to restart. This will save everything you've been working on.

5:02 pm

NonnieLight

any help with the Bs would be greatly appreciated...I have the ale, bo+***ster(bad guy), golf term, ghost or something from the nose, and what the ghost says...what am I missing?

5:02 pm

MLFAN17

its jsut another disk if soemthing happens right?

5:04 pm

Judi

Yes, MLFAN. Save your Norton disc in case you decide to re-install it or troubleshoot problems with Norton.

5:04 pm

Judi

Are you just installing an updated version of Norton or is it completely different AV ware?

5:05 pm

MLFAN17

isntalling it

5:05 pm

Judi

BE6/40: Really bad hair day after the guillotine.

5:06 pm

Judi

BE6/30 rather.

5:06 pm

MLFAN17

Norton Internet Security 2009

5:06 pm

MLFAN17

Norton Internet Security 2009

5:06 pm

NonnieLight

lol, ty judi :o)

5:06 pm

Judi

Okay. It will probably prompt ask you during the install if you want to replace/remove the old version of Norton. Most definitely click "yes".

5:07 pm

MLFAN17

i dont have it

5:07 pm

MLFAN17

i got that one too Nonnie lol

5:12 pm

Judi

The G's are just insane today. I have two left to find and I only know what three of them mean. Crazy.

5:13 pm

NonnieLight

I still have 6 of them left to find, judi...I'm struggling with this entire grid.

5:13 pm

MLFAN17

the booklet says if i have other firewall programs that are installed on my computer symantec strongly recommends that you remove them to prevent installation erors..

5:13 pm

MLFAN17

nonnie same here i could only find 31 words in less then a half hour

5:14 pm

NonnieLight

slow going...

5:14 pm

Judi

Okay. Well if the Norton Internet Security 2009 has a firewall, then it's okay to remove the old one.

5:15 pm

MLFAN17

do you think it will prompt me to do so as i have no idea how to do that but assuming i go to uninstall programs?

5:16 pm

MLFAN17

Nonnie i agree

5:17 pm

Judi

Since the instructions say to remove the old firewall before installing Norton 2009, remove the old firewall first. If you have an icon on your desktop for the current firewall/AV ware, just right click on it. The properties menu should pop up. Somewhere in there should be an uninstall button. Otherwise, go to the add/remove programs.

5:17 pm

NonnieLight

People are insane! A Walmart employee was trampled to death due to out of control shoppers trying to get "the deal".

5:18 pm

Judi

I should ask, do you using Windows?

5:18 pm

torgone

I hope it wasn't my son ..

5:18 pm

Judi

Are you using Windows. Uhg. 6 ozs. of beer and I'm slurring my typing already.

5:19 pm

MLFAN17

Yes windows

Doodah Girl

Hello, Room

5:19 pm

NonnieLight

Hello Doodah

5:19 pm

Judi

Black Friday shopping is one of the stupidest traditions on the planet. I won't go within 100 yards of a store on this day.

5:19 pm

Doodah Girl

So, what is this Babble game, anywat

5:19 pm

Judi

Okay, MLFAN. Rock on.

5:20 pm

NonnieLight

I agree Judi. It makes no sense now because a lot of these "sale" items can be purchased online.

5:21 pm

NonnieLight

Good, tor. Of course that doesn't mean he wasn't in harms way because I hear people everywhere get crazy on this day.

5:21 pm

Judi

Hey, I love the thrill of the hunt as much as any other girl, but online shopping RULES!

5:21 pm

NonnieLight

Doodah, you're trying to make words by using the letter tiles.

5:21 pm

NonnieLight

5:22 pm

Doodah Girl

5:22 pm

torgone

He didn't open today, so I'm sure didn't have too much trouble .. 5 a.m. is when the insanity is ..

5:22 pm

Judi

Good luck with the install MLFAN. If anything goes wrong, we never had this conversation!

5:22 pm

NonnieLight

no, it isn't timed. a new grid every 24 hours

5:22 pm

NonnieLight

lol judi

5:24 pm

Judi

I'm going to go feed my face. You kids have a good night. See you tomorrow.

5:24 pm

NonnieLight

8:14 pm

rururocks

I grew up on the blues...

8:14 pm

lbdawger

8:14 pm

rururocks

8:15 pm

rururocks

I am not big on Rap or hip hop

8:15 pm

tygerbryght

or were you able to detach?

8:16 pm

kje

8:16 pm

rururocks

in fact I can't stand Rap and dislike hip hop

8:16 pm

pam

9:12 pm

tygerbryght

yvw

9:13 pm

oodleberry

well my fruit for my fruit cake is soaking in rum

9:14 pm

tygerbryght

making it tonight?

9:14 pm

oodleberry

that's what my mother used but peoples say they use brandy... um I never heard of brandy

9:14 pm

tygerbryght

or how long does it have to soak? I know nothing about making fruit cake. my dad was the only one in our house who would eat it :)

9:15 pm

tygerbryght

I've heard of using several different spirits to soak the fruit

9:15 pm

tygerbryght

including whiskey - if you can imagine it

9:16 pm

oodleberry

no no I will tomorrwo ... just saw a movie about a child not believing in sanata clause... that's why he couldn't here the sleigh bells...

9:16 pm

tygerbryght

I would think that brandy would be mmmm more compatible?

9:16 pm

oodleberry

well I can because I love whisky sours

9:16 pm

tygerbryght

cartoon or regular??

9:16 pm

oodleberry

maybe I just don't like the taste of brandy

9:16 pm

oodleberry

cartoon

9:17 pm

tygerbryght

that sounds more plausible :)

9:17 pm

tygerbryght

well, that's certainly a good reason NOT to use brandy ;)

9:18 pm

oodleberry

which is more plausable

9:18 pm

tygerbryght

I meant the plausible to apply to cartoon, in case it was not clear

9:18 pm

tygerbryght

fairy tales are always better in cartoons, IMO

9:18 pm
