1:20 am

jillibus

1:20 am

jillibus

your Tom is a dreamboat, stid

1:20 am

stidmama

aha! got an 8/9

1:20 am

Birdeee

What is BLink about - had we talked about it??

1:20 am

Birdeee

*googling Blink*

1:21 am

jjks

stid, can tom bring us some? lol

1:21 am

Birdeee

Aha "The power of thinking without thinking" do you like it

1:21 am

stidmama

yes, he is. he is lovely. I am the second-luckiest woman ever. (after jill)

1:21 am

jillibus

same author -- the power of thinking without thinking

1:21 am

stidmama

I have enough to share... *passes out bowls of ice cream and choclit*

1:22 am

stidmama

thinking without thinking? LOL sounds like MY kind of book! *giggle*

1:22 am

jillibus

haven't got into it, birdee, but so far so good. Also reading Love Over Scotland (Alexander McCall Smith), must get it back to the lobrary!

1:23 am

jillibus

you're luckier, stid -- you still have him

1:24 am

Birdeee

I just read an online excerpt from Blink and it is now order from my library

1:24 am

jillibus

library *sigh, typoitis again*

1:24 am

jenocide

phantom: guerrilla

1:24 am

stidmama

I hope we have as long together as you and trev did, jill. I wish trev were still around...

1:24 am

Birdeee

I love it that I can look up books and order them to be sent directly to my house from the public library!

1:25 am

Jellen

Wow, that's a great service, Birdeee!

1:25 am

jillibus

wow, nice library, birdee!

1:26 am

jillibus

stid -- we only had 49 years.

1:26 am

westford

bird do you have a bookmobile?

1:26 am

Christine

Birdee -- to your house? in L.A we can order & pickup at the library -- but, to your house!!!!

1:26 am

stidmama

that's 31 years more than us! that's a while, jill.

1:27 am

jillibus

our library has a service like that for shut-ins, but nobody else!

1:27 am

Birdeee

not a bookmobile and you can also designate them to be picked up at your closest branch but for $100 (that I pay when I am at the library the next time) they are actually mailed right to your house.

1:27 am

stidmama

we used to be able to get books mailed to houses -- about 30 years ago, the state was mostly rural. Now that most people are in the cities they don't do that so much.

1:27 am

Birdeee

Hah not $100 but one dollar

1:28 am

jillibus

Our postage rates are so high you'd never get a book mailed for that little

1:28 am

westford

thought that was a little steep

1:29 am

Birdeee

I think it is a special library rate but I don't really know - I just take advantage of it

1:29 am

stidmama

oooh. found the other 9

1:30 am

jenocide

what does the other 9 start with? i have the re

1:30 am

jillibus

anyway, our island is small enough that people can easily pick up their own books. We also have an Interlibrary Loan service

1:31 am

lynxxx

ca Jenocide, hi

1:31 am

Christine

well, $100 for a year would be not too bad - it costs me around $20 to get a cab to the library, wait while I go in then bring me home, and that's every week.

1:31 am

lynxxx

hi Stid' like the short hair cut, it really suits you

1:31 am

stidmama

gee that's a lot of money christine!

1:31 am

jenocide

1:32 am

jillibus

nice icon, lynxxx :)

1:33 am

stidmama

thanks lynxxx.... it's a bit shaggier now, growing out fast. trying to decide if I should keep it short for a while.

1:33 am

stidmama

yes. the Qu is grey

1:33 am

jillibus

keep it short, stid! Most becoming!

1:33 am

lynxxx

If I say you look younger with it short would that help decide Stid?

1:34 am

Birdeee

I just checked - it is now $2 as of January 1st - still a bargain for me though

1:34 am

stidmama

LOL thanks, ladies, will talk to Tom about it tomorrow and see what he thinks. With the new glasses, I need ANYTHING to help me look younger!

1:34 am

Christine

I'd take the bus, but I can't walk too far - hoping to start inhalation therapy at the end of the month, see if that helps. Actually, I'm not too concerned: it's my excuse for doing my two favourite things - lying on the bed or couch, and reading all day - retirement is GREAT!!!!

1:35 am

jillibus

new glasses, stid? Me too -- almost invisible

1:35 am

vedaman

might i have a clue for ce8?

1:35 am

stidmama

not mine -- I got bifocals. need help for reading only, but didn't want to do the whole "cheaters perched on end of nose" look

1:35 am

jillibus

Men always want long hair -- phooey -- keep it short and perky

1:35 am

stidmama

ce 8? really?

1:35 am

Birdeee

1:36 am

vedaman

hurshy

ARGH! again with the plowing!

3:50 am

hurshy

and it's not just the noise - the stupid truck has a friggin blinking light on the back of it - i feel like i've got a strobe light in my room

3:52 am

redturtlehead

Wow Hursh, when I lived in Rochester NY, they had these super silent plows, maybe you shoudl move!

3:52 am

redturtlehead

Good Morning.

3:53 am

hurshy

this plow WAS quieter than the one last time - i don't know if it was the light that woke me up, or what

3:53 am

redturtlehead

Well, it is a nnnoying. and Frankly, it is very early to be up, unless like me you have to get to work today.

3:54 am

hurshy

yeah, last time my husband said, well, they have to have it clear for people to go to work, but this time, it's sunday

3:54 am

redturtlehead

I work on Sunday. Lots of people work on Sunday

3:54 am

hurshy

true...

3:54 am

hurshy

there were two trucks idling outside my window for quite awhile

3:55 am

redturtlehead

but it is still annoying to be woken.

3:55 am

redturtlehead

Hursh, they know you live there!

3:55 am

hurshy

i don't know why they couldn't turn off the engines while the men did whatever it was they were doing

3:55 am

hurshy

possibly a drug deal

3:55 am

hurshy

no, then they WOULD try to be quiet

3:56 am

redturtlehead

because if they turn off engines, they get very cold, I imagine.

3:56 am

hurshy

they were OUT of the trucks, moving around, talking to each other

3:56 am

hurshy

so i think they would be cold anyway

3:56 am

redturtlehead

yes, but when they get back in the trucks,it would be all chilly....

3:57 am

hurshy

i am skeptical

3:57 am

hurshy

i think they are just sound sleepers who do not think of others

3:57 am

redturtlehead

Well, you got a nice start on the grid.

3:57 am

hurshy

yeah, a whole 10 words, lol

3:58 am

Christine

probably trying to figure a way to connect bells & whistles to the rig, to really drive you bonkers

3:58 am

redturtlehead

Hush, I like this grid so far. I have about 39 , but...

3:58 am

hurshy

i'm sure it is a fine grid, i'm just determinedly cranky

3:59 am

Hi all

4:58 am

it's incredibly quiet in chat atm. Looks like everybody remembered they had a re4 life at the same time, lol

4:58 am

Sally-catlover

Hi Sprite and everyone.

4:59 am

sprite

hiya Sally

5:00 am

Sally-catlover

Heehee. Just got my last cl4/5 combo, and realised that no-one can ask for one without going in the PB today!

5:00 am

sprite

lol too true!

5:01 am

sprite

and we cannot even "re-" that word, which is very stupid for babble

5:01 am

Sally-catlover

Haven't been chatting for a day or so because our heating is off downstairs where office is (long story), and whenn I realised that I was doing the grid with my gloves on, I realised that I really was addicted!

5:02 am

sprite

oooops Sally, yeah, that IS a dead giveaway, lol.

5:02 am

Eva

good morning everyone-too groggy to chat much but I'm here

5:03 am

Sally-catlover

Now have nice temporary electric fire installed for me and cats! and Hi Eva

5:03 am

sprite

hi Eva, glad to have you here in any condition

5:03 am

diem

hi eva

5:06 am

sprite

brb, my husband and kids are home from aikido. back soon.

5:12 am

sprite

back

5:14 am

sprite

sounds cosy, Sally, the temporary electric fire. When do you expect the normal heat will be back on?

5:14 am

Sally-catlover

Welcome back :-)

5:15 am

sprite

thanks :)

5:15 am

Sally-catlover

Several weeks. We have underfloor heating, and are having work done on floor, so heating downstairs is off :-(

5:15 am

Sally-catlover

Bad timing.

5:15 am

sprite

that is tough this time of year :(

5:16 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, we thought it would have to be off just for a few days at most. Sob.

5:17 am

sprite

very inconvenient. Fleece blankets, warm clothes and temporal fires can only do so much, right? You will be so happy when they are done :)

5:17 am

Sally-catlover

Not all bad, we have log fire in sitting room, and upstairs is warm. Eventually I'll have to move all my clobber out of this room and upstairs anyway while they work in here. Not looking forward to that.

5:17 am

Sally-catlover

Yes indeed Sprite, I want to buy a Slanket (mentioned on here) but they are out of stock!

5:18 am

sprite

no idea what a Slanket is!

5:18 am

Sally-catlover

Google is you friend :-) It's like a big fleece blanket with sleeves, looks a bit like a monk's robe.

5:19 am

sprite

ohhhhhh sounds like something totally wonderful. I will hope for you they are back in stock very soon.

5:19 am

Kazzer99

Hi all - I am back today - i had an accident on Thursday - pretending I was superwoman and did a Walter - have a lovely graze all over my right temple and a balck eye to die for along with some broken ribs on the right side and bruised ribs on the left and bruises all over my knees and hands!

5:20 am

sprite

and I am actually an avid googler. Just cannot seem to spare the energy atm, too ill to move much.

5:20 am

not a fun day,what you do?

rolin

are you not well sprite??..whats up?

5:21 am

sprite

ewwww Kazz! Am so sorry hun! You must be hurting all over. Would hug you if that wouldn't hurt you too much.

5:21 am

Eva

omg kazzer! What did you do?

5:21 am

Kazzer99

cought my shoe in the 3rd step from the bottom on the path done from the car park which propelled me about 6 six forwards flat onto the concrete path

5:22 am

sprite

hi rolin! Nothing much, a pretty taxing week, as usual ending in me losing the battle with yet another virus. Fever, sore throat, coughing, stomach stuff.

5:22 am

rolin

ooooww...kazzer...

5:22 am

Kazzer99

hubby says no more base jumping without a parachute!!

5:22 am

Sally-catlover

Ouch, Kazzer, feel for you.

5:22 am

diem

ouch!!

5:22 am

sprite

ouch ouch ouch Kazz :( How totally awful. Could have been even worse, I guess, but it is bad enough. So sorry for you.

5:23 am

rolin

oh poor you sprite... i had the tummy stuff during the week.. still a bit bloible... is someone making you lots of hot drinks and good soups?

5:23 am

Eva

repeat to yourself kazzer, "I cannot fly. I cannot fly. I cannot fly".

5:23 am

sprite

you tell hubby the flying part went perfectly. You only need to work on your landing skills.

5:23 am

Sally-catlover

Poor Sprite. I've had the cold/flu bug as well, but not stomach.

5:23 am

rolin

lol@sprite

5:24 am

sprite

I just stick to tea for now.

5:24 am

Kazzer99

its fine the hugs are good but only gently as i am still rather tender in places. if you go to www.flickr.com/photos/davebarfoot you can see the mess i made of myself

5:24 am

demi

hello all!

5:24 am

sprite

hi demi

5:24 am

Kazzer99

Exactly sprite - must remember concrete is hard, body is soft

5:24 am

Kazzer99

hi demi

5:25 am

Kazzer99

back to grid only got 2 words so far

5:25 am

diem

hi Demi

5:25 am

Sally-catlover

Wow, Kazzer, that's some mess!

5:26 am

sprite

aw Kazzer, it looks so painful. I hope things will improve soon. Your eye is going to be a spectacle when it heals up, lol, all colours of the rainbow coming on. But the ribs are ugliest, I think.

5:26 am

Kazzer99

the eye developed over Friday and Saturday - presumably where the blood drained from my head

5:26 am

Kazzer99

interestingly i have no external bruises on my ribs

5:28 am

sprite

sally, looked up the slanket and I want one myself :D

5:29 am

sprite

that is not too unusual, Kazzer. Rib damage is often only on the inside.

5:29 am

Sally-catlover

Don't they look wonderful! There are UK distributors as well, I emailed the company and they gave me some names to save the US postage.

5:30 am

Kazzer99

i am fine as long as i dont move suddenly

5:30 am

sprite

that is delightful. They might as well have an overseas thing as well, I will email them!

5:31 am

Sally-catlover

Cheapest online UK distributor I've found is <http://www.prezziesplus.co.uk>. Don't know what postage might be to you though.

5:33 am

Sally-catlover

Now have visions of Babblers this side of the pond all sitting in Slankets of varying colours doing the grid!

5:33 am

sprite

will find out! But will tell them to dig up one now and send it to you pronto first!

5:34 am

Sally-catlover

I mean this hemisphere, where we have winter!!

5:35 am

diem

Atalante are you with us?

5:39 am

Kazzer99

sally - love the kitty pic

5:41 am

Sally-catlover

Thanks Kazzer. Her name is Daisy and she's curled up beside me.

5:42 am

Kazzer99

does she like a fuzz or prefer to give you a snuggle every now and again?

5:42 am

Kazzer99

oops fuss

5:43 am

Sally-catlover

She loves a fuss, and loves a quiet life. Sleep, eat, get stroked, sleep, eat ... Typical cat really.

5:43 am

sprite

cats know the meaning of heaven on earth

5:44 am

Kazzer99

that nice - my friends cat is really vicious but will deign to let you stroke her if you are going to feed her

5:45 am

Sally-catlover

I think vicious cats are often created by their owners (not always). We are very lucky with these two, who never ever even put their claws out in play to us.

5:46 am

sprite

can also be due to a lack of peace and quiet in the litter.

5:46 am

Kazzer99

my friend is very hands off at the little kitty stage and so i think that they dont humanise very well

5:46 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, sprite, but we have known cats where the owners say, you can't handle them - and every cat they have has been the same!

5:47 am

Sally-catlover

We have always handled ours from a very young age.

5:48 am

sprite

argh yes, then it is clearly them. I think if you want any animal to bind to humans, humans need to handle them and make them feel good from early stage on.

5:48 am

Sally-catlover

Gentle but firm - bit like the way to treat husbands really.

5:48 am

sprite

roflol Sally :D

5:48 am

Kazzer99

i know - but she has always let them do their own thing - she very rarely gives them names as well

5:49 am

Merk

al 5,10 clue please

5:50 am

sprite

hello Merk

5:50 am

Sally-catlover

QED Kazzer!

5:50 am

Sally-catlover

al5/10 rhymes with me!

5:51 am

Merk

Hi everyone

5:51 am

Merk

ty

5:51 am

sprite

lol Sally I love that cl4

5:54 am

sprite

you cannot expect a cat to bind with you when you don't bind with the cat, right?

5:55 am

Kazzer99

i know that if you want a cat to play nice then they need to know humans - otherwise they are literally wild animals

5:55 am

Sally-catlover

That's right. Cats love to interact with their "owners" and accept you as the leader of their pack. Even rescue cats we've had (come to think of it, nearly all of our cats have been rescue) we have been able to accept being handled, being fussed.

5:56 am

Sally-catlover

We had one cat which was like a wild thing when we had her. Every day I picked her up and stroked her, put her down. Eventually she used to go around draped round the back of my neck!

5:57 am

Sally-catlover

I think some people are afraid of their cats, and don't like to say no, so if the cat behaves "badly" then they just let it be.

5:57 am

Merk

interesting grid

5:58 am

Sally-catlover

I'm finding it quite a nice grid Merk. One or two strange words.

5:58 am

Kazzer99

that's really good - we would get one but we have a very busy road out the front of our house and my hubby lost two cats within 3months of each other to traffic where we lived before and that road was even quieter so until we move we will unfortunately be cat free

5:59 am

westford

hello from someone who is owned by 3 cats

5:59 am

westford

I was just reading the chat

5:59 am

westford

hi kaz

6:00 am

Sally-catlover

Hi west. Only 3? What's stopping you? :-)

6:00 am

Sally-catlover

Most we have had is four at one time.

6:00 am

sprite

love this grid. And also love cats. We always taught our cats to behave and have always been rewarded with love, playfulness and cuddles.

6:00 am

westford

their grocery bills

6:00 am

sprite

hi west :)

6:00 am

westford

hi sprite

6:00 am

Kazzer99

ha ha! Just over half way - off to inspect the chicken and stick the spuds on fro lunch - will be back in a mo

6:02 am

westford

our Jenny cat is 18 years old now she belonged to our daughter and granddaughter she was not very friendly when we first got her but now she likes to sit on our laps when we're using our laptops of course

6:02 am

westford

our other 2 are strays we rescued they all have their own personalities just like children

6:03 am

sprite

my former cat loved to sit on my lap when I was reading or something like that. When I was using my laptop he wanted to sit on the laptop.

6:03 am

westford

sprite how's Caya's knee better I hope

6:03 am

westford

someone sent me the cutest picture of a kitten asleep on his back on a laptop

6:04 am

sprite

again a little bit better, west, thanks for asking. She went to aikido this morning, but only participated in the stretching and warming up. We also went for a walk yesterday, which did some good.

6:04 am

westford

oh that is good to hear

6:05 am

sprite

but if it is still swollen tomorrow I am gonna take her to the doctor's.

6:05 am

westford

have you been putting ice on it?

6:05 am

Sally-catlover

When my current 2 were small (and they were VERY small) I had a desktop pc with a tower. They loved to sleep on the tower, so in the end I had to put a raised tray on it to keep their fluff out of the tower!

6:06 am

sprite

yes we have cooled it with ice, bandaged it when she was active, let it rest otherwise.

6:06 am

westford

cute sally must have been nice and warm

6:07 am

sprite

don't blame them, Sally, must have been like a mothercat. Warm, purring and always there.

6:07 am

Sally-catlover

They were so tiny, only about four weeks old we reckoned. I was afraid of standing on them. It was like having babies again for a few weeks.

6:08 am

sprite

yes way too early to be away from their mum. Glad they found someone like you to take over.

6:08 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, we found them in our log store. One had been crying all day so Mum nowhere to be found!

6:09 am

Sally-catlover

She was like a little bird, all ribs and I could hold her in one hand.

6:09 am

westford

a friend of mine had one 2 weeks old she kept it in her pocket and bottle fed it every 2 hours

6:10 am

Sally-catlover

2 weeks - that's even more of a challenge.

6:10 am

sprite

it is really painful, the cruelty of some people towards animals

6:10 am

westford

she was dedicated

6:11 am

westford

there is a case going to trial now a man refuses to put his horse down and the poor thing is suffering so

6:11 am

Sally-catlover

I don't think ours were abandoned by people, but by a feral Mum.

6:11 am

sprite

that is terrible :(

6:11 am

westford

or something may have happened to her

6:11 am

sprite

sounds that way, Sally

6:12 am

Sally-catlover

We had an earth tremor the day before, so we think she tried to move them and lost them somehow. Cats get freaked by things like that.

6:12 am

sprite

wow mistyping gave me a 7! eq7 to be precise. I tried to make it re.

6:13 am

sprite

I think it would scare me sh*tless too

6:13 am

westford

saw a funny story on TV some people had their dog at the vet's to be spayed and the people at the vet's office put her outside in the dog run and she squeezed under 3 fences and escaped

6:14 am

Sally-catlover

The mistyping or the earth tremor sprite?

6:14 am

westford

she was a Yorkshire terrier everyone panicked and guess where she turned up?

6:14 am

sprite

nah, mistyping is part of my everyday life, I can sorta handle that :)

6:14 am

sprite

in the waiting room?

6:14 am

Sally-catlover

She turned up at home?

6:14 am

westford

you got it!

6:15 am

westford

she must have been talking to the other dogs there

6:15 am

sprite

lol

6:15 am

westford

pretty dumb thing to do though it's freezing

6:16 am

westford

speaking of dogs sprite when is your little one going to arrive?

6:16 am

Sally-catlover

Lol. We have caught some male feral cats here and had them spayed. We were advised to let them go where we caught them, and they wouldn't come back. Standing joke round here for young men - don't stand around Sally's back door!

6:16 am

sprite

it should be born on Feb 3, my daughter's birthday. And we can take it home 8 weeks later.

6:17 am

Sally-catlover

6:17 am

6:17 am

roflolllll sally!

6:17 am

oh yes it is! We can hardly wait, so looking forward to getting our new housemate home.

6:18 am

westford

we'll want lots of pictures

6:18 am

sprite

I promise :D

6:19 am

westford

have you stayed with Terra for its name?

6:19 am

sprite

so far we have, west. It has such a good ring and feel about it.

6:19 am

westford

it's perfect

6:20 am

sprite

:)

6:20 am

westford

are you leaning toward a male or female?

6:21 am

sprite

either will do. We want the one that will fit into our family and be happy there.

6:21 am

sprite

have you seen the pics of the mum and dad?

6:22 am

westford

that's the best idea

6:22 am

no I haven't

6:22 am

6:25 am

sprite

and fireworks too

6:26 am

westford

very very beautiful and look at those little faces awwww

6:26 am

westford

was that her last litter?

6:27 am

sprite

no the litters are from the other 2 lady dogs this breeder owns. She only breeds once a year, or once every 2 years. So there are many years between litters of the same mum.

6:28 am

westford

that is the smartest thing to do

6:29 am

westford

and Yay sprite on fireworks!!

6:29 am

sprite

yes I think so too. We selected her because she takes so much time with the dogs, has them scanned for all inbred handicaps, domesticates them from the start, etc.

6:30 am

westford

what does koh-I-noor mean?

6:32 am

sprite

it is the name of a famous diamant, I believe. It is the .... how do you say that... pedigree name?
He listens to the name Ttitian, pronounced Gitan.

6:34 am

westford

have you chosen Terra's registered name?

6:34 am

Koh-i-noor means Mountain of Light and it is the name of a famous diamond. Hello btw.:-)

help with i and e on the bottom please

6:35 am

because we already know the name, the name Terra will be part of the registered name. But there will also be another name. Same beginning letter for dogs from same litter, I believe, and other such rules.

6:35 am

sprite

hi Takuma and peri

6:35 am

the i at the bottom is land surrounded by water

Hey ruru...

11:45 am

MetFan

How you feeling today, dear?

11:46 am

pugmama763

how'd it go with Viktor love?

11:46 am

pugmama763

eh ok I guess

11:46 am

MetFan

Oh, we had fun, or at least I did, I can't speak for him.....

11:46 am

pugmama763

2nd day back on arthritis meds so not feeling 75 anymore

11:47 am

MetFan

That's good - today for some reason I am a snot factory - it just won't stop....

11:47 am

pugmama763

been getting blood pressure headaches 4 days in a row now. If that persists I be seeing the Doc sooner than planned.

11:48 am

pugmama763

isn't snot just a joy?

11:48 am

MetFan

Could your other meds be aggravating your pressure?

11:49 am

pugmama763

the other 2 I've been on for years , so doubt it.Just think the pressure meds aren't working adequately anymore

11:49 am

MetFan

Maybe you need a new one?

11:50 am

pugmama763

could be that being off the arthritis meds for a week made the pressure go up . PAIN does that!

11:50 am

pugmama763

that's what I'm thinking , if it continues maybe need something more potent

11:51 am

MetFan

Well, I hope it all evens itself out. I just took my allergy and sinus pills, so I'll be OK soon, but your issues are so much more threatening.

11:52 am

pugmama763

all that crap aside the titty doesn't hurt as long as it's strapped in. Get to take off the bandage today.

11:52 am

MetFan

Wondrous - when will you know anything about this last test?

11:53 am

pugmama763

the RN said Doc should have the Path. report Mon or Tues.

11:53 am

o-o

show we cover our eyes?

11:53 am

pugmama763

and will call me himself

11:53 am

MetFan

No, BR, we're just hen-clucking!!

11:54 am

pugmama763

what BR? scared of a titty?

11:54 am

MetFan

Well, luck with that, dear, I'll be praying it's nothing.

11:54 am

pugmama763

we all got 'em

11:54 am

rururocks

absolutely true pugs.. when I broke a couple ribs my blood pressure was through the roof

11:54 am

pugmama763

I'm not sweating it

11:55 am

pugmama763

Ive grown accustomed to feeling like a science project!

11:56 am

MetFan

Which is why pain management is so vital, ruru - it exacerbates lots of other things.

11:56 am

rururocks

**sending healing thoughts to pug's titty**

11:56 am

rururocks

so true met..you got to get on it early...

12:01 pm

pugmama763

12:02 pm

MetFan

I think I was, too - all my friends growing up and now are Jewish - we must have all been in the same tribe....

12:02 pm

Michnick

We are safe. Most people seem to think Jerusalem is safe from bombing. I fear rioting.

12:02 pm

rururocks

what the yatzas or the soup?

12:02 pm

pugmama763

you were just switched at Birth Met

12:03 pm

Michnick

12:06 pm

MetFan

Dear Ms Pug, I'm going back to lurking to work on this damn grid - can I call you later?

12:06 pm

Atalante

apparently it does! getting into references about rejection of dualism, maintaining that whatever conflict there may be between Light and Darkness, Light will always be triumphant and prove that the worst of evil will only be turned to His Glory. A friend suggested that that book would be a good source

12:06 pm

Trifioso

I wish it was your birthday again sec - I would totally get you pro for your present

12:06 pm

pugmama763

at least we dont flood the chog with "please spoon feed me half the grid" requests!

12:07 pm

pugmama763

12:07 pm

secooper

12:07 pm

Michnick

Hmm, OK I'll take your word for it but I still don't get it.

12:07 pm

MetFan

Oh, please - yogo only comes on at night, thank God!!!

12:07 pm

Atalante

no you just get me floundering around with holy texts instead!

12:07 pm

car.eeyore

What do you mean...I don't think anyone was dominating the grid...I just sat down again!

12:07 pm

Trifioso

ata, there is a whole sunday school series of books comparing the Bible and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I taught it several years ago to a class of HS kids and it was very well received. I will try to find you a link, hold please...

12:07 pm

pugmama763

there are others besides yogo sadly....

12:07 pm

MetFan

OK, dear - later. Bye

12:07 pm

Atalante

I don't really either, Mich, but I want to look into it to see what I don't get

2:00 pm

MonkeyGames

OK. The cat's lump, which as many may recall was classed as benign, has started growing at a really extreme rate. The vet is horrified. She is scheduled for x-rays Tuesday. If it has not invaded the chest wall we will do new biopsies and if still benign we will look into surgery. Something has to be done. It's bigger tahn her head and growing FAST. But she is not havinga ny pain.

2:00 pm

MonkeyGames

So that is the bad news. Good news coming up...

2:01 pm

lynxxx

oh dear MG, that sounds bad.

2:01 pm

stidmama

oh no, monkey! *hoping it's just a fluid-filled cyst*

2:02 pm

KatieMcG

I'm sorry about the cat I hope things go OK on Tuesday

2:02 pm

sorry all. Dont know if I missed anything then but Babble went bananas on me or a while...

2:03 pm

MonkeyGames

I passed my in-Dutch presentation (half an hour!) and was rated "excellent". I still need grading on my portfolio but the teacher says from what he has seen so far and what he glanced at, grading is at this point a formality and I can probably get that degree NEXT WEEK!

2:03 pm

o-o

ca 6 -- large state, abbr; and verdant: ***h

2:03 pm

WOO-HOO Monkey! well done! *proud mama-friend look*

JBV

2:04 pm

MonkeyGames

It's not a Master's or something.... but it IS in Dutch... this has been a LOT of work.

2:04 pm

MonkeyGames

Not sinking in yet, really, to tell the truth.

2:05 pm

JBV

stid, scrolling back, saw your post about linguistics homework - what are you studying?

2:05 pm

stidmama

I think you have done well, monkey -- as I am finding out, not all undergrad work is a piece of cake!

2:06 pm

MonkeyGames

Yeah, Walter had a good time for much of it and "not so much" for some, he says, but he want sto do it again, and it has maked a greatleap in his social skills too. He was VERY shy (as always) about saying what they wanted hom to-- then AFTER he did, he just opened right up to everyone! Good lesson. He says he definitely wants to do it again, and was disappointed they didn't want him to pretend to be someone else and"eat and sing", so he clearly "gets" what acting is all about.

2:06 pm

stidmama

I am taking a half-time program called the Ecology of Language and Place, JBV. I need 4 credits in grammar, and some in world geography and some in Pac NW History to get into the Master's program next year.

help with the last ce 5/12(I think), er 5/10, last la 6/21 and ur 5/14...my last 4

2:07 pm

MonkeyGames

True, Stid, and I somehow interviewed myself without fully understanding it into an accellerated intensive course and did the usually 4 year degree in 2 1/2... that's just sinking in too...

2:07 pm

stidmama

this class will fill the gammar/linguistics gap and ties in nicely to work I did 20 years ago in ethnomusicology

2:07 pm

JBV

sounds like cultural linguistics/anthropology - very interesting stid, what is the your degree in?

2:08 pm

lynxxx

er5.10 there are vER*** in poems

2:08 pm

MonkeyGames

Stid, my aunt is very open to e-mails if you ever think of anything she could help you with... just say you're a friend of mine.

2:09 pm

stidmama

"liberal arts" JBV -- silly choice, really -- but always planned on doing a master's at some point, so it didn't really matter too much at the time (when I was half my current age)

2:09 pm

JBV

i don't know if i've ever mentioned it but linguistics is my field - have an M.A. in teaching English as a Second Language and PH.D. in Applied Linguistics from Georgetown -

2:09 pm

2:15 pm

MonkeyGames

Leanne does some very special work. As an undergrad she helped teh Havasu develop a written form of their language-- and she's only gotten more impressive since. IT'd be intimidating of she wasn't so kind and generous and all that.

2:16 pm

MonkeyGames

At least next week I will no longer be the only person on that side of the family without a degree in anything...

2:16 pm

MonkeyGames

Bye Miz!

2:16 pm

JBV - I just read what you wrote about the word etui. I always thought the same about me and my Mum with that word :)

2:17 pm

KatieMcG

A degree isn't everything honestly!!!

2:17 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh, I know! But still, it was kind of irksome...

2:17 pm

JBV

oh, so many connections today, that is so cool, Lizsark

2:17 pm

MonkeyGames

I can have a petty side at times.

2:18 pm

Lizsark

My Mum was a seamstress and has a collection of antique sewing tools

2:18 pm

So you're human then?

2:18 pm

My dad has to my knowledge never worked in any field that has anything to do with his degree...

2:19 pm

My grandmother was a seamstress. Actually, both of them were.

Now hubby wants a leg break, and the poor man skating broke his ankle last year on the show!

2:19 pm

Monkey, I am all caught up on the Walter chronicles now...glad to hear that he enjoyed the experience, and would like to do it again. And CLEARLY he "got" what is was all about, so well done all of you!

2:21 pm

My novel is 40,000 words to short for the mainstream markets at the moment. But trends change.

2:21 pm

Lizsark

it was amazing JBV, truly a beautiful country

2:21 pm

I wasn't being funny about the degree, I just worry that people get one because of pressure of others on them

monkey, one of the 6th graders suggested, when I thought I was going to do the nanowrimo last novemeber that I "pad" my word count with lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of repetition...

2:22 pm

pugmama763

yahoooee PAV!!!

2:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh, no. I understand that though. No, we emmigrated and spent a long time getting established here, and then my great aunt died and my aunt and father used some of her legacy to send me back to school, an dthat's when I thought, hey cool, I'm gonna have a degree in something!

2:22 pm

stidmama

YAY Pav!

2:22 pm

pugmama763

CE8 please ? last word.....

2:22 pm

JBV

stid did you see my question? I am wondering about the language you mentioned - where is it spoken?

2:23 pm

MonkeyGames

No padding. Heck I still haven't sent it to you, have I? The problem is I like it how it is. Padding would detract. I'll send it right away...

2:23 pm

change the Y to a vowel making the same sound, and end with the cooling unit abbreviation used in teh summer

2:24 pm

KatieMcG

I'm not being funny but if you had an editor they might make suggestions for changes and extend the word count that way. Sometimes you can be too close to something. I always have to get a reviewer on my papers

Trifioso

world's tiniest kitten is now helping me type,..this is so funny....

2:34 pm

Trifioso

74

2:34 pm

MonkeyGames

Awwwwww!!!!

2:35 pm

Trifioso

sorry - apparently "74" is cat type for hello....

2:35 pm

MonkeyGames

I just assumed it was how many words you had left...

2:35 pm

MonkeyGames

Are all three U words from the right related?

2:36 pm

KatieMcG

Oh no trif's kittens, coming over all broody again!

2:37 pm

Trifioso

i know two of them are, MG - the u's that is,

2:37 pm

jessmom

2 u's are related MG

2:37 pm

MonkeyGames

For that matter, are all 5 from the other one related?

2:37 pm

nrkii

hi everyone!

2:37 pm

MonkeyGames

Yeah, missing one from each and wondering if I should expand the search area or not...

2:37 pm

MonkeyGames

OK, so one not. Good to know.

2:37 pm

beachboggle

Hi nrkii

2:37 pm

nrkii

on the bottom right, 2 are related, one is US

2:38 pm

MonkeyGames

JUST found the third.

2:38 pm

MonkeyGames

Thank you.

2:38 pm

nrkii

on the top U, they are all related in sound anyway

2:38 pm

MonkeyGames

Cool, thanks!

2:39 pm

nrkii

20 to go here, just glancing through recent chat for clues... belated thanks to Stid for the CE8

2:41 pm

nrkii

and I'm about 80% done with undecorating!

2:42 pm

MonkeyGames

Just checked the outside temp. 1 degree! Good thing I hustled Walter out there to walk around on the canals today. If it staye above 0 the ice will be untrustworthy there tomorrow after school.

2:44 pm

kkiln

2:44 pm

MonkeyGames

And on that note, time to take the dog out and go to bed. Have fun, everyone! I'll keep you posted about the cat. Fingers crossed it acn be easily removed. We are not going to put her through long and complicated surgery, and doing nothing is not an option, so the more vibes aimed at a simple excision being possible the better.

2:45 pm

nrkii

bye monkey, be well!

2:45 pm

KatieMcG

Night MG

2:45 pm

Trifioso

good night monkey, and good thoughts go with you

2:46 pm

Atalante

oops got sidetracked playing with my Wii

2:46 pm

MonkeyGames

Thanks! *poof*

2:46 pm

KatieMcG

Lol ata, what were you playing. I'm doing babble, playing a game on my iphone and watching tv, it's driving hubby mad

2:47 pm

Atalante

Underwater thingy, you go adn dive round and meet little fishies

2:47 pm

Atalante

its quite amusing incorrect about all laws of diving but the graphics are amazing

2:49 pm

Trifioso

ata, it's not endless ocean, is it? Secondo has that, and she just looooves it, and I think she has learned a lot

2:49 pm

Atalante

yes, that sounds about right!

2:49 pm

KatieMcG

I've just set a reminder for the show 'The Swan' which is one of the most politically incorrect shows on TV and hubby has commented that he is glad his OU is about to begin again!

2:49 pm

beachboggle

BBL guys.... *poof*

2:49 pm

Trifioso

maybe not about diving, but certainly about marine life. And hey, it's got to be better than driving around blowing stuff up, right?

2:50 pm

Atalante

the marine life bit is great, the diving ethos bit not so great

2:50 pm

Atalante

like having to go round and prod things!

2:50 pm

Atalante

The Swan? what's that?

2:51 pm

Trifioso

is the swan that show where they basically give women head transplants, and then they compete in a beauty contest? barf

2:51 pm

KatieMcG

There were people on holiday who couldn't help themselves touching things including the turtle, it drove me mad!!

2:51 pm

Atalante

me too. luckily I'm usually in situations like that as a dive instructor so I can yell at them!

2:52 pm

Trifioso

Last time I went snorkeling I went to an amazing place where, when you swim out about a quarter mile, there is an 800 foot drop beneath you. It was SO SCARY, but I loved it

2:52 pm

KatieMcG

The swan takes really ugly people gives them massive and invasive plastic surgery they compete with each other (2 at a time) and the winner goes in to a beauty pagent at the end.

2:52 pm

Trifioso

Secondo really thought she would give it a go, but backed out on the day. No big whoop. we will try again when she is older

2:53 pm

Atalante

its fun diving off places like that, you can just float down and down and down

2:53 pm

Trifioso

I was only snorkeling, I don't know how to dive.

2:54 pm

Atalante

wow. that's some programme

2:54 pm

KatieMcG

We had a bit of an issue on holiday. Mr McG likes snorkelling in the shallows but is scares me but I love snorkelling of the 'abyss', we had to compromise and snorkle the shallows when the tide was in and the abyss the rest of the time

2:55 pm

Trifioso

I think I like the shallow. Ata - it was a real dive we were on, not the game! :)

2:55 pm

Atalante

I'll just snorkel or dive anywhere lol. easy

2:55 pm

nrkii

why do the shallows scare you katie? never been snorkeling so can't picture...

2:55 pm

KatieMcG

The Swan is car crash telly really but I found the first series a few years ago totally addictive

2:56 pm

Atalante

they have pointy things that are out to get you!

2:56 pm

Trifioso

We went to a brilliant beach that is over a volcanic vent, so the water bubble like champagne. it was GREAT

2:56 pm

lil*monkey

where was that, Trifi??? I want to snorkel there!

2:57 pm

Trifioso

I ended up going out deeper than I planned, went round a corner of a reef and a diver popped out from under an arch and scared the WITS out of me. Think you could hear me squealing out my snorkel!

2:57 pm

KatieMcG

I'm so clumsy I worry about hurting the coral or myself in the shallows. I panicked the first day as we didn't check the tide timetable and Mr McG had to save me by cutting himself on the coral

2:57 pm

Atalante

scaring snorkellers is great fun

2:58 pm

Trifioso

In the Commonwealth of Dominica, Lil. It is in the windward island of the carribbean, and is NOT the dominican republic - that's a whole diff place. It is an amazing, amazing place to go

2:58 pm

lil*monkey

cool, Trifi... i have been to the Dom Republic and don't want to go back, it's too third world for me

2:58 pm

Atalante

awww poor katie. cutting oneself on coral is not fun

2:58 pm

lil*monkey

but Dominica I want to see

2:58 pm

Trifioso

I used to be a missionary there in the 80s, and I wanted to take my own family back there, so they could see the island that meant so muhc to me.

2:59 pm

lil*monkey

i'm back in the Babble to find my last 17

2:59 pm

Trifioso

well, lil - it is definitely eco-tourism. if you are looking for luxe modcoms, don't go

2:59 pm

lil*monkey

oh Trifi, that is so wonderful :)

2:59 pm

KatieMcG

last time I was in the maldives we were snorkling off the abyss at dusk and a stingray played chicken with me, it won and I screamed very very loud through my snorkle. My friend Wayne nearly drowned laughing.

2:59 pm

Trifioso

if you like sleeping with just candlelight in a bamboo treehouse in the rain forest, it is for you!

2:59 pm

Atalante

looooool i bet

2:59 pm

Trifioso

though to be fair, I never looked for any four star places. maybe there are some. don't think they would be fun though. I like my lizards, thanks

3:00 pm

Kazozz

hi all! last time I went snorkling I got sea sick lmao!

3:00 pm

nrkii

I'm staying a few more minutes in case anyone needs clues... then I have to go finish my undecorating

3:00 pm

lil*monkey

Trifi, mainly I am looking for beautiful beaches where I can enjoy the surf, sand, and snorkeling without being bugged and begged for money

3:00 pm

lil*monkey

i definietly don't want to go to the rainforest, UGH i had enough of that in Costa Rica

3:00 pm

Trifioso

dominica is sadly sort of beach bereft, but if you look you can find some. they have a couple of black sand ones, which is cool. They have loads of sea glass, so I was in heaven.

3:01 pm

Trifioso

ugh. mr. hate has arrived to return the children. Acting awards will now be handed out....bbs

3:01 pm

nrkii

St. Thomas is pretty good for that lil...

3:01 pm

lil*monkey

OK thanks, nrkii , I haven't been to that island

3:01 pm

secooper

thats so cool i wanted 2 go with u guys

3:01 pm

nrkii

I just went for the first time this fall, and I liked it a lot

3:02 pm

nrkii

I'm generally a Maine person, so going South of Florida was a first for me

3:02 pm

Dorens

and st. john too... they have underground national park which was pretty cool

3:02 pm

nrkii

I only got to St John one day for a little hiking

3:03 pm

nrkii

the park is wonderful... what I saw of it

3:04 pm

nrkii

it's so easy to get back and forth between St. Thomas and St. John, that next time I go (if there is a next time) I might stay on St. John a few days

3:05 pm

Dorens

i haven't been there in years, but iI'm sure it's still beautiful.. i said underground...meant underWATER... marked snorkeling trails, etc

3:05 pm

lil*monkey

how expensive is it, Dorens or nrkii ???

3:05 pm

nrkii

procrastinating over... off to finish stripping down the tree

3:05 pm

nrkii

it wasn't too bad, lil (staying to answer)

3:05 pm

Dorens

St John's is much smaller than St Thomas, but they have everything from campgrounds to luxury resorts

3:06 pm

lil*monkey

TY nrkii

3:06 pm

nrkii

but the thing that gets you on St Thomas is taxis and food

3:06 pm

Dorens

stripping the tree is depressing nrk, i agree

3:06 pm

KatieMcG

Reethi Beach is fantastic in the Maldives but you need to give a limb to get there it cost us $5000 each for Christmas and New Year from England

3:06 pm

nrkii

I stayed at a 4 star resort, and the cost for that was not bad (cheapcaribbean.com)

3:07 pm

lil*monkey

yikes Katie, $5000 is way over budget for me

3:07 pm

Dorens

you still have to fly to st thomas and take a ferry over to st john, but i've heard the camping places are very very nice

3:07 pm

lil*monkey

thanks for that website, Katie

3:07 pm

nrkii

but as long as you don't get sucked into the whole duty-free shopping madness (I did) and you plan out your trips to minimize taxi fares (I didn't), you can do alright

3:07 pm

KatieMcG

I like the Dom Republic we are going in May but we stop in the resort the whole time

3:07 pm

nrkii

I also didn't get the all inclusive package, because it was too much money and I don't drink enough to make it worth it

3:08 pm

KatieMcG

I went to Gambia and hated it only because of the hassle you got every time you left the hotel

3:08 pm

MaMaWA

Hi all I can actually contribute to the conversation! I snorkeled for the first time in Kauai 2 summers ago and it was amazing

3:09 pm

lil*monkey

Katie, I was not in a resort, but in a village called Cabarete, we were harassed endlessly

3:09 pm

Dorens

i must say i've snorkeled all over the caribbean, and the best snorkeling ever (for me) was off of maui

3:09 pm

MaMaWA

ANd I too cut myself up on the coral and volcanic rock

3:09 pm

nrkii

okay, truly, going to get the tree undressed within the next hour... bye all!

3:09 pm

KatieMcG

It was more expensive because we did go all inclusive (do we drink enough) and it is always way more expensive to go at the holiday time. 10 days in September would cost about Â£1500 each - as you can see we have checked :-)

3:09 pm

lil*monkey

i've been to Barbados 6 times, I like it there but want someplace new

3:10 pm

lil*monkey

yes Dorens, i have snorkeled in Maui and it was sooooo beautiful

3:10 pm

MaMaWA

We were at the Princeville on th e north western side of the Island nerar Hanaleigh Bay if I remember corectly

3:11 pm

KatieMcG

I know it's horrible but I don't want to see how the locals live I want to sit in the sun, drink, eat, read and relax (in no particular order) so I always go all inclusive and very rarely leave the hotel

3:11 pm

lil*monkey

Hanalei, yes that's beautiful MaMaWa

3:12 pm

KatieMcG

That's why I love the Maldives, there is noone to hassle you, you can't leave and the snorkelling is out of this world.

3:12 pm

MaMaWA

Kauai is not as touristy as the big island

3:12 pm

MaMaWA

and quite beautiful

3:12 pm

lil*monkey

i agree with you Katie... i want to bask in the sun and enjoy my holdiay

3:12 pm

Dorens

would love to try it, katie, but the maldives are a bit harder to get to for us in the states -- maybe someday

3:12 pm

KatieMcG

We are looking at Aruba for 2010, has anyone ever been there?

3:13 pm

lil*monkey

yes, Katie, I liked Aruba

3:13 pm

MaMaWA

Although Ive never been to the other Hawaiian Islands , my sister and hubby have and they took me with them on this particular holiday

3:13 pm

lil*monkey

of all the islands I've been to, I thought Aruba had the warmest water

3:13 pm

lil*monkey

nice resorts with nice beaches

3:13 pm

KatieMcG

Oh that sounds very promising

3:14 pm

lil*monkey

MaMa, Hanalei means "crescent-shaped", there is a Hanalei Bay on Kauai and on Maui too

3:14 pm

MaMaWA

Hubby and I went to Jamaica a few years back and Idont think I would want to wander too far off the property

3:14 pm

lil*monkey

also, Katie, the people speak English, and the food is quite good

3:14 pm

lil*monkey

it has some incredible shopping if you like that , for jewelry

3:15 pm

MaMaWA

Yes Lil that is correct , Sister has been to Maui

3:15 pm

lil*monkey

MaMaWa, I lived on Oahu for 3 years when i was a little lil*monkey

3:15 pm

MaMaWA

i always wanted to goto aruba and barbados

3:15 pm

MaMaWA

LOL lil

3:16 pm

MaMaWA

I never thought i really cared about going there., mostly because of the flight , but I loved it

3:16 pm

lil*monkey

Aruba is an interesting mix of Dutch people and dark-skinned people (who are a mix of several ethnicities)

3:17 pm

MaMaWA

My brother in law is native Californian and likes to vacation in the Hawaiis

3:17 pm

KatieMcG

Oh it sounds really great

3:17 pm

lil*monkey

the Dutch people are as white as rice, and the dark people are very dark

3:18 pm

Krista

9:32 pm

jellen, if you got ot a dealer you will not get top dollar for them. if you want top dollar then the best place is an auction site, and the most eyeballs is ebay. (however, that's not the whole story)

9:32 pm

That's pugmama's Cupid, Jellen

I've been looking at alibris...

9:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

if you just want to move them out of the house, then go to your local dealer -- phone first and say you have books to sell, they will ask you about them to determine wither they think you have anything they think they can sell

9:33 pm

i sell on alibris. they are the least "evil" of the Big Three, IMO. meaning they have the fewest policies that screw their vendors. so to speak

9:34 pm

I'd kinda like to make this a marginally profitable hobby...
