hi all

4:58 am

LoriP

G'd morning rolin. Ata, I was just being grid intensive. No. Really.

4:58 am

mab

ata is an artist and therefore very very sensitive

4:58 am

LoriP

G'd morning demi

4:58 am

Frances

Lol mab

4:59 am

rolin

hey demi...good to have the house back again?

4:59 am

mab

good morning everyone

4:59 am

lynxxx

hi Demi & Mab. Sensitive, really?

4:59 am

demi

hey rolin.. it is great to have the house back... rich wants to know if there are any pdas yet

4:59 am

Atalante

mabster!!

5:00 am

LoriP

G'd morning mab.

5:00 am

mab

migraine feeling gone?

5:00 am

rolin

tell him to calm down...lol..

5:00 am

Atalante

just about TY! I feel fuzzy, but blessedly unheadachy!

5:00 am

demi

rolin your son is thinking about laptop porn!

5:01 am

mab

thank goodness, ata

5:02 am

Atalante

yes! and ty for the advice on facebook, I've sent husbnad out to buy whatever tabs he can find with the right ingredients for next time!

5:03 am

Haz1558

Cat sedatives might be just what you need, Ata. I can vouch for their effectiveness.

5:03 am

Frances

Hello Haz. That sounds interesting!

5:03 am

lynxxx

hi Haz

5:04 am

Atalante

lmao yes. not sure I have any though, I have deworming tablets, and dog analgesics ...

5:04 am

Haz1558

Yes. Husband once managed to take cat sedatives instead of a treatment for ringworm (the drug cupboard was dimly lit). He was practically comatose for the rest of the day.

5:04 am

LoriP

G'd morning Haz! ***stands in line for cat sedatives, I hear they pack a real punch***

5:04 am

mab

that's novel, haz. i like it.

5:04 am

Sally-catlover

Why do you need cat sedatives, Ata?

5:05 am

mab

she has worms

5:05 am

Haz1558

Husband learned a lesson about putting on the light in the drug store....

5:05 am

Atalante

he must have taken a good dose!

5:05 am

Sally-catlover

Did it cure his ringworm? :-)

5:06 am

Haz1558

I think it was stuff for cats with epilepsy or something. He never did that again!

5:06 am

lynxxx

no, but he was relaxed they didn't worry him anymore

5:06 am

Atalante

blooming good thing it wasn't anything more potent!!

5:07 am

Haz1558

Relaxed? He was horizontal.

5:07 am

mab

:D so funny!

5:07 am

Atalante

like horse sedatives

5:07 am

Atalante

ketamine is very interesting!

5:07 am

Frances

Just thinking that too Ata.

5:07 am

LoriP

Shirley Haz couldn't resist a few post drug mind games....

5:08 am

mab

ooo, that would seem dangerous, horse medications, based simply on the dosages

5:08 am

Haz1558

I know. His worst experience was as a trainee vet, being entrusted with the antidote to a horse sedative. If the vet had given himself an injection by mistake, husband had to leap forward and administer the remedy.

5:08 am

Atalante

"so when you got up and danced round the room singing I'm a little pixie ..."

5:08 am

Haz1558

It concentrated his mind wonderfully.

5:09 am

Sally-catlover

brb

5:09 am

Atalante

I bet!

5:09 am

Frances

I must tell my granddaughter. Since the age of two she has wanted to be a vet.

5:09 am

Haz1558

Anyway, I must depart, sad though I am to leave you all. And apologies for mentioning cats....Byee!

5:10 am

Frances

Bye Haz.

5:10 am

Haz1558

And keep well, Ata. We need to look after our sensitive artists.

5:10 am

LoriP

lol, Have a good one Haz.

5:10 am

Atalante

ye dear!

5:10 am

Atalante

bye!!!

5:12 am

bye haz

My news for the day. Tied Stew up to the railing (like a large gate) around the outside seats at the Bakery. Heard loud crash. Raced out to see Stew barging across road with the railing swinging wildly behind him. Happily cars stopped. Stopped running only because the railing got jammed under a parked car. I was envisaging 10 cars with major damage! The good news is that I won't have to get his nails cut for a few months, they are 'worn' totally down to the quick/pink part.

5:15 am

Atalante

OMG!!!

5:15 am

Atalante

is he ok??

5:15 am

LoriP

Whoa! Funny, but not funny. Stew is rowdy sometimes....

5:15 am

Atalante

bloody dogs! they like giving us all heart attacks!

5:16 am

lynxxx

He was a bit shaky for 5 minutes, and aside from the nails, he's fine. very lucky coz I think the injure easily

5:16 am

Frances

Must miss racing. Did he see a rabbit?

5:16 am

Atalante

they do, they are delicate little flowers

5:16 am

LoriP

Stewgate, beats Watergate!

5:16 am

mab

wow, how scary

5:17 am

Atalante

Hobbit did the same the other day - well, the racing across a road bit - luckily it was a very small country lane. She was chasing a pheasant

5:17 am

LoriP

Something certainly must have set him off. Glad he's okay.

5:17 am

lynxxx

The railings are a bit wobbly, he probably pulled it over and it frightened the life out of him. They are v. skittish

5:17 am

Frances

Bet that sent your heart racing for a bit. I hope he is OK.

5:17 am

LoriP

Stew may need a doggy therapist now.

5:18 am

Atalante

poor darling!

5:18 am

Frances

Poor Stewie.

5:19 am

LoriP

Thank goodness the cars all stopped. Here, I've seen drivers who could care less unfortunately.

5:20 am

Atalante

you just don't think to test for strength of railings!

5:20 am

rolin

phew...linux had a brain fart...scarey

5:21 am

lynxxx

My fault, I knew it was wobbly, but I have probably tied him up there about a 100 times and thought it would be OK. On the no-tie list now

5:21 am

Atalante

cos teh railings aren't there any more!! what happened to the piece he dragged behind him?

5:21 am

lynxxx

Linux - software?

5:22 am

Atalante

an operating system, like windows but different

5:22 am

lynxxx

The railing was fine, they lifted the car up to get it out (!)

5:22 am

rolin

yes lynxxx..my new little mini netbook came with linux... my partner will be changing it over to windows later

5:23 am

Atalante

what a palaver!!!

5:23 am

demi

problems with lucy rolin...

5:23 am

Atalante

all you want to do is hug stew and have to wait while the chaos is put right

5:23 am

Frances

I bought a Samsung netbook before Christmas and I love it. Battery lasts seven and a half hours. Wonderful for a cricket match.

5:27 am

rolin

frances i was really impressed with the battery life of the samsung too... but it was a bit more than i wanted to spend...and i couldnt get the touch pad to respond to me...

5:27 am

westford

You use your netbook to play cricket?

5:28 am

Frances

I use will use my netbook to score. I am a cricket scorer.

5:28 am

LoriP

5:29 am

Frances

.....or a ball.

5:29 am

rolin

lol lori..it really was..!...i tried a couple and my partner who was with me...could owrk them properly...but i just couldnt get it to move consistantly...the coating felt a bit strange...*shrug*..i dunno

5:29 am

westford

no it wouldn't roll very well

5:30 am

Frances

I found that too at first rolin but then realised that it needed a very light tough.

5:30 am

Frances

even light touch.

5:31 am

rolin

hmmm... and it was suggested my touch was too light...lol...anyway... i got such a good deal on this one..i can afford to upgrade to a 6 cell battery

5:32 am

Frances

Not too bad then rolin.

5:32 am

lynxxx

5:32 am

5:36 am

rolin

5:53 am

Hi West

hi mich things quieting down in your neck of the woods?

7:26 am

redturtlehead

And I thank you for helping me....

7:26 am

Michnick

Sounds like that. Ceasefire officially but not in reality. Still much better than it was.

7:26 am

Frances

Annie that pilot is some cool dude.

7:27 am

westford

the first time hubby tasted Starbucks he nearly spit it out..and said in a very loud voice 'this tastes like Navy coffee' lol

7:27 am

sprite

still thinking about you there a lot, Mich

7:27 am

westford

so happy to hear that Mich wondered if you were able to get some people from the south

7:27 am

redturtlehead

I was impressed. Last night on Prarie Home companion they sang a song with all the Cabin Crew and Pilots names in it, it was really nice.

7:27 am

Anniebrook

frances...god bless that pilot...I

7:27 am

Michnick

Thanks Sprite. Ceasefire is not peace, as you all know, so of course, not really a solution.

7:28 am

Frances

I never understand why people want to hurl rockets at each other. Much better to live than to die in my very humble opinion.

7:28 am

redturtlehead

Miochnik, I am glad things are getting better though for imediate safety.

7:28 am

sprite

absolutely not peace indeed. Better than nothing, I suppose, but still terrible.

7:28 am

westford

my husband use to fly F4's just like Sully did he said he was just doing his job

7:28 am

Michnick

No one ever came here. Turns out more people were willing to open their homes in the north and Center than wanted to leave theirs in the South.

7:29 am

westford

you can always tell a fighter pilot you just can't tell them much

7:29 am

Michnick

That's the bottom line Frances! Unfortunately not everyone sees it so clearly.

7:29 am

sounds colorful

7:40 am

redturtlehead

It sounds very grotesque, but the house has a Modern open design,and it works well, but it shall never sell to the normal home purchaser.

7:41 am

westford

you have to go with neutral colors

7:41 am

Frances

We are always told here that only neutral tones sell.

7:41 am

westford

snap fran

7:41 am

NonoNanette

yep neutral is the rule for selling homes

7:41 am

redturtlehead

It's going to be all taupe and light sage green.

7:41 am

redturtlehead

And I am going to be out so much cash.

7:41 am

westford

My son decided to 'surprise' his other half one day. While she was out he painted a lighthouse on the wall from floor to ceiling. She loves lighthouses.

7:43 am

redturtlehead

I hope Nanette, I just hope it sells. I am feeling a little irritable, as I have now done several little upgrades that I would not have allowed myself....and now I will never enjoy them!

8:34 am

Anniebrook

Dorens, you are our grid person today

8:34 am

8:34 am

redturtlehead

kje, I went out to Sushi last night. It was very tasty.

8:34 am

phandmd

8:35 am

Dorens

annie, what is the song? I look forward to getting the coffee next week, but what am i supposed to listen to?

8:35 am

phandmd

could be shingles then

8:35 am

Dorens

sure - 50 years ago

8:35 am

crosshair

shingles can be nasty

8:35 am

redturtlehead

might be good to see a doctor on Monday.

8:35 am

Dorens

it might be something else, but it looks a lot like the picture... of course today is sunday and tomorrow is a holiday

working in toursit industry we miss most of them anyways:(

8:37 am

Frances

Poor you Dorens. My son has a severe bout of shingles right now. He has had about ten hours totasl sleep in a week because the pain is so severe.

8:37 am

crosshair

oh for the states i guess

8:37 am

wills

may be eczema - get that on my ring finger occasionally

8:37 am

featherbee

it was interesting, my kindergartners first guess for who MLK was was Obama! just by looking at a black and white drawing of him for a book we were making.

8:37 am

phandmd

Dorens, if it does happen to be shingles, you need to see the doc asap, the sooner you get meds the easier it will be for you

8:38 am

Anniebrook

dorens, I never heard of shingles starting on a finger

8:38 am

kje

dorens... that is called whitlow's disease, and would be truly unusual for someone like you... and herpes does not itch, it hurts

8:38 am

dan2bit

yes crosshair we don't get Victoria Day and British Columbia Day and The Queen's Birthday down here :-)

8:38 am

Scrabbler

Hi all new entrants. I was off on a phone call.

8:38 am

Dorens

hoping you're right wills.... but it is awfully itchy, does you eczema itch badly?

8:38 am

wills

YESSSSSSSSSSSS - hard to ignore

8:38 am

Dorens

good, then it isn't! (but it is a kind of itchy/hurty)

8:38 am

Scrabbler

Yep, herpes zoster burns, stings and hurts from the nerve pain.

8:39 am

crosshair

lol@ a day off for liz,s b-day

8:39 am

kje

if it looks like herpes (vessicles on a red base) and itches... it is likely a contact dermatitis... and that would make a heck of a lot more sense

8:39 am

Dorens

ok. i like eczema much better...it just seems much largerthan the eczema my son used to have

8:39 am

Scrabbler

Just one finger, Doren?

8:39 am

Frances

Eczema itches a lot.

8:39 am

kje

yes, eczema itches

8:39 am

Dorens

yup

8:39 am

Anniebrook

dorens, I had the vaccine for shingles...you might want to look into that

8:39 am

Scrabbler

It could be winter dry skin--I get that during the winter and it can get itchy.

8:39 am

Dorens

(this is so nice, getting medical diagnosis onbabble)

8:39 am

dan2bit

stuck on the top O - I have the poems and the arenas

8:40 am

Scrabbler

TY for clues, Dan

8:40 am

phandmd

sorry, that is all I have too

8:40 am

Dorens

very big aand ugly now though... so what should i do for it other than moisture?

8:41 am

Dorens

cortisone?

8:41 am

featherbee

my feet get so dry and itchy in the winter that it can keep me up at night. drives me nuts.

8:41 am

kje

no... no diagnosis... just ideas... yo should see your doc tuesday if still there or worsening... in mean time, OTC hydrocortisone cream will help you stop itching

8:41 am

Scrabbler

so 1 spot on 1 finger, doren?

8:41 am

Scrabbler

I have a spot on top of my left foot that makes me crazy during the night

8:41 am

Dorens

the bumps are so big i can't tought the next finger.. abour four big ones and several smallers

8:41 am

featherbee

i asked for a rasp for christmas

8:41 am

kje

now scrab... you know better! get some cream on that sucker!

8:42 am

Scrabbler

Yep, I am using HC 1% cream

8:42 am

kje

weed... eucerin cream... the thick stuff that comes in a tub and looks like crisco... slather on after every bath and stop taking such hot baths/showers

8:42 am

wills

Finally halfway

8:43 am

featherbee

the hot showers are my problem! i got this shea butter cream that comes from bath and body works called "shea it isn't so" that is fabulous

8:43 am

redturtlehead

Only advice I give is if the bumps are fluid filled, dont pop them. just leave them until you see MD.

8:43 am

Angelsong

hi, all. I just tripped over the 10.

8:43 am

crosshair

my wife had this issue doc percribed 25% cortizone cream,darn stuff cost $25.00!!!

8:43 am

phandmd

ewww, what is it?

8:43 am

Dorens

ok, thanks. will see him tuesday and pick up some otc cortisone till then

8:43 am

featherbee

good job angelsong!

8:44 am

redturtlehead

cross 25.00 doesnt seem so horrid considering!

8:44 am

kje

hi angel... my organization hero

8:44 am

Frances

25%!!! That is strong stuff.

8:44 am

Anniebrook

dorens, and ask the doctor about the shingles vaccine

8:44 am

Dorens

thanks annie will do

8:44 am

crosshair

indeed frances

8:45 am

Scrabbler

Probably 2.% %--I never heard of 25%

8:45 am

Scrabbler

And even the 2.5% HC is OTC

8:45 am

Frances

My doctor refused to prescribe cortisone tablets because of the side effects.

8:45 am

crosshair

let me get the tube scrabbs

8:45 am

redturtlehead

Probably Scrabbs, but then again, I had never heard of Injectable Tylenol before and Indeed it does exist, just not in the US.

8:45 am

featherbee

stas

8:45 am

featherbee

oopsie

8:46 am

crosshair

lol scrabbs is right of course its 2.5 not 25%

8:46 am

kje

OK, icon and profile updated... link to song in my profile... go listen... it is cute! and I love that she sings morons twice - LOL

8:46 am

Frances

Doesn't count feather.

8:46 am

Scrabbler

I never heard of injectable acetaminophen

8:46 am

Dorens

am listening right now... cute

8:46 am

featherbee

fingers flying too fast for expert

8:47 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, if the doc used a trade name --higher co-pay. I always use generic and advise OTC when available

8:47 am

redturtlehead

i had not either scrabbs, but I was definitely made fun of by my French, Belgian and Kenyan colleagues when I said gee that doesnt exist. It does. Not very good for you though...

8:47 am

Scrabbler

i always consider the co-pay when rx-ing a med

8:48 am

Dorens

think i should go for 2.5 % or 1%?

8:48 am

Frances

Amazing the things you can get overseas. My son stocks up on meds in Spain that are not available here.

8:48 am

crosshair

we have generic brands that the doctor will often choose to make the cost easier

8:48 am

kje

i like snirt as a word... sounds neat... weed! you are such a snirt!

8:48 am

crosshair

2.5 is perscription only as far as i know dorens

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Well, I have 101 words and must get ready for XC-skiing. I must leave in 30 min. We always play Scrabble in the lodge after our first loop.

8:49 am

redturtlehead

Yes Frances, some things do surprise me.

8:49 am

crosshair

scabbs you are one busy girl:)

8:49 am

Dorens

have fun scrabs

8:49 am

kje

have fun scrab! and good luck at scrabble!

8:49 am

Scrabbs, sounds wonderful...have fun

8:49 am

redturtlehead

Have a great day Scrabbler!

8:49 am

Frances

Have fun Scrabs. Don't fall.

8:49 am

Scrabbler

2.5% is hardly different than 1%--still low-potency topical steroids, but mid-potency = triamcinolone or others

8:49 am

mymuseisme

1:03 pm

Dorens

MrP says she's coming... maybe in june, maybe july? we will all keep in touch

1:04 pm

Takuma Sato

that de8 is a name for a kind of horse, i believe -- one that a knight would have ridden

1:04 pm

mymuseisme

really! that's fantastic

1:04 pm

mymuseisme

de8 = de + plural consonant + one who attempts

1:04 pm

stidmama

1:05 pm

Takuma Sato

1:05 pm

Atalante

yay Tak!

1:06 pm

mymuseisme

1:06 pm

Takuma Sato

(I woudn't have gotten it without mymuse's clue, though)

1:06 pm

pugmama763

definition clues are just agravating if the word is too obscure

1:06 pm

Atalante

but they quickly gets you to remember the meaning!

1:07 pm

mymuseisme

lol pug you beat me to the clue punch!

1:07 pm

stidmama

1:07 pm

that ae5 expands the ae6

1:15 pm

redturtlehead

Hi Pav, long time no see!!!!

1:15 pm

dcseain

bran muffins with raisins are the best, maybe with hint of citrus peel - yum

1:15 pm

Dorens

i used to make my own... really yummy, got the recipe from this sweet little old lady who had made them for a bake sale

1:15 pm

PAV3

Hey Red! How's FL today?

1:15 pm

redturtlehead

Seain is a foodie, I can tell.

1:16 pm

Dorens

i just got off the phone with fl

1:16 pm

redturtlehead

For me its warm enough, I just got back from swimming...but the mornign was rather chilly.

1:16 pm

dcseain

it was the hint of citrus peel, wasn't it, red :)

1:16 pm

mymuseisme

yep dc

1:17 pm

PAV3

oooh. almost time for a free doz of Dunkin' Donuts!

1:17 pm

redturtlehead

Possibly....yesterday I went out for sushi with a couple that has their own chop sticks kept in an engraved box at the resturaunt...

1:17 pm

forwardbyfaith

can't get the ae 5 - not getting the birds nest clue

1:17 pm

Dorens

dunkin'donuts don't have the same health benefits as bran muffins tho, pav

1:17 pm

dcseain

1st ae6 - add what you do in a restaurent

1:17 pm

Dorens

google eagle's nest forw

1:17 pm

Free? Donuts? How???

1:17 pm

PAV3

It must be 70's here as well...we're supposed to have some water droplets at some point this weekend.

1:18 pm

dcseain

Krispy Kreme is superior to Dunkin' Donuts. KK Forever!

1:18 pm

redturtlehead

Oddly, Seain, I think DD makes a far better Crueller. not that I eat donuts or anything. :)

1:18 pm

Atalante

Krispy Kreme rocks

1:19 pm

dcseain

yes, DD's Cruellers are the bomb.

1:19 pm

dcseain

KK's were like that until sometime in the late 70's when they suddenly changed, and got an orange glaze

1:19 pm

mymuseisme

STOP you're making my mouth water

1:19 pm

MonkeyGames

Hi for a few!

1:19 pm

redturtlehead

they are lgith and fluffy with just a bit of eggy-ness...to them.

1:19 pm

redturtlehead

1:19 pm

dcseain

howdy, MG

1:19 pm

mymuseisme

hi monkey

1:20 pm

redturtlehead

Hi monkey Games.

1:20 pm

PAV3

The DD franchises here in the Phoneix area ALL closed for refurbishing/ cleaning (!!) last spring, and slowly are reopening. My friends on the ea4 si4 of the valley won a raffle (aiming for a free Wii) and ended up with a year's free of donuts....52 coupons actually, and gave me three...so far ;)

1:20 pm

redturtlehead

Moneky are people where you live interested in this inauguration or is it us who are odd...

1:20 pm

mymuseisme

any clues for the en6/21,7/32 combo?

1:21 pm

redturtlehead

Pav....you have some good Friends, I assume you shall stock the PB properly??

1:21 pm

dcseain

a year's worth of donuts - wow

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

People hare are very glad things might be taking a turn for the better over there. It'd be good for the whole planet.

1:21 pm

dcseain

i like the chocolate coconut and the cruellers and the peanut ones from DD

1:21 pm

Atalante

no, 52 is a week's worth

1:21 pm

mymuseisme

lol Ata

1:22 pm

Dorens

krispy kremes when they just came out of the oven..... sublime!

1:22 pm

dcseain

indeed, MG

1:22 pm

redturtlehead

No Peanuts for now Seains!

1:22 pm

dcseain

i hate KK's original glazed - way too sweet

1:22 pm

PAV3

I agree, KK are much better donuts, but they're a tad bit pricier and not as prevalent here in the Valley of the Sun anymore since that franchisee went BK..only a handful of stores now open since the franchisee reluctantly agreed to sell his stake in Phoenix...

1:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Sigh. If I want good doughnuts I have to make them myself.

1:22 pm

mymuseisme

glad the KK near me closed, and DD just far enough I don't want to take a walk there in the cold huge gr4

1:22 pm

dcseain

here, KK is cheaper than Dunkin', maybe cause we're home territory.

1:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Which is on the agenda for Wednesday...

1:23 pm

Dorens

i actually don't eat doughnuts anymore... not worth the calories (but if homemade, that would be irresistible)

1:23 pm

redturtlehead

Pav that is sad, but I do not like KK despite living in the heart of its territory, too fatty.

1:23 pm

dcseain

i miss the benetes that i had all the time in Spain.

1:23 pm

redturtlehead

I occasionally have a DD crueller but I must admit, it takes like 2 hours to decide if I should eat it or not...

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

Yes, I have lost 11 kilos and am trying desperately to lose more, but then Walter says, "Can we make doughnuts?"...

1:23 pm

beachboggle

Late commenting, but KK's when the "Hot" light is on.... fabulous!!

1:24 pm

Dorens

i used to like them red, but then once ii got a cruller that had been sitting around too long, and that changed my feelings

1:24 pm

Dorens

oh. . beignets... CafÃ© du Monde, New Orleans. that is something else

1:24 pm

MonkeyGames

Right now we're indulging him a bit, given the situation. The key is to make some I don't like... strawberry frosting, for example...

1:25 pm

dcseain

cinnamon-covered apple-filled, yum!

1:25 pm

redturtlehead

I even like the stale ones, but its rare that ai get one now.

Sometimes I wish there was a feature on Babble that woud allow the grid to rotate....

1:31 pm

MonkeyGames

That's a bit far to expect the doughnuts to survive, yes. But bulbs need a good frost to do well... should have been planted in November... but anyway, we can work something out, PayPal or somewthing, and i can grab some bulbs in A'dam, where they routinely have the phytosanitary certificate already. Or wait, lemme find you the tulip museum URL...

2:07 pm

stidmama

I could use help on the O in the lower left corner for my no blank tiles goal... almost to halfway.

2:07 pm

VERY cool, nancy boy! I only know gomsa hamni da (thank you -- I hope).

2:07 pm

funny spelling of a hormone stid

2:07 pm

oe7, stid

2:08 pm

stidmama

the younger kid is taking taekwondo, and is therefore learning a few.

2:08 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hey, the 5 minutes ain't up yet!

2:08 pm

stidmama

thanks harpjane and seain

2:08 pm

Atalante

funny? BRITISH!!

2:08 pm

Anniebrook

oe 7 is a hormone

2:08 pm

harpjane

like i said.... lol

2:08 pm

Haz1558

Proper order, Ata!

2:08 pm

Atalante

:P

2:08 pm

Nancy Boy

I'm not fluent yet though - the first thing I learnt was to ask for more food ;)

2:08 pm

harpjane

isn't there a G in the British spelling?

2:08 pm

stidmama

got it!

2:09 pm

stidmama

sounds like a normal adolescent boy to me, nancy boy!

2:09 pm

Haz1558

It's a different word you're thinking of, harp. We spell it properly as well, with oe at the front.

2:09 pm

Atalante

no, we dont; tend to insert random g's :)

2:09 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL, Stid. Well that was before I stopped learning Korean and started learning how to count...calories ;)

2:09 pm

stidmama

the younger stidkid has also *sigh* grown another half inch or so. in the last five weeks. AND he was really hungry yesterday so more is on the way.

2:10 pm

harpjane

i thought it was obsolete without the g, or are there two different hormones?

2:10 pm

harpjane

btw the five minute ignore seems to have worked

2:10 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ooooh, another 9

2:10 pm

Atalante

2 different hormones

2:10 pm

stidmama

count calories? oh nancy boy, I hope you are not worried about your size... I hope it's just about being healthy!

2:10 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hooray, 3 cheers for harp! hip hip!

2:10 pm

harpjane

wow babble is so educational....

2:11 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yay, got all the 9s

2:11 pm

stidmama

harpjane is a rare woman -- insightful, kind and with a cool icon...

2:11 pm

redturtlehead

Ok news, I just received in the mail a new book my Dad has out!

2:11 pm

grant

Clue for first re7/28, anyone?

2:11 pm

dcseain

different hormones

2:11 pm

JBV

tell us, red .....

2:11 pm

dcseain

more likely, dr g stepped in, i'm guessing, though 5-min total ignore is a good idea

2:11 pm

stidmama

hello red! new book! how cool is that?

2:11 pm

Atalante

oh cool!

2:12 pm

dcseain

coolio, red!

2:12 pm

stidmama

I think getting emails from more than one "regular" at once may have helped... LOL

2:12 pm

redturtlehead

Its a bit odd...the way other people write about my Dad...they tend to think they know him...

2:13 pm

Atalante

wonderful!

2:13 pm

Nancy Boy

Not worried per se, Stid; just...conscious? Some of my clothes are for women and so they're cut to showcase that kind of body. I'm more into maintaining weight than losing it - my favourite shirt is a US size 2 so I need to keep fitting into it ;)

2:13 pm

JBV

wow, red that is very cool

2:13 pm

stidmama

I read the blurb... but what is the book about??? is it poetry or critical analysis of some kind?

2:14 pm

stidmama

I understand that, nancy boy! unfortunately my favorite clothes were pre-motherhood, and there is no going back!

2:14 pm

redturtlehead

poetry. He is a poet.

2:14 pm

redturtlehead

He does have a few books that are analysis of Jazz etc.

2:14 pm

dcseain

The world is my ro7

2:14 pm

stidmama

oh, then the blurb makes a little more sense... LOL

2:15 pm

stidmama

good clue seain!

2:15 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL, Stid :D I guess at least I can't get pregnant...gotta make sure I don't grow a beer belly tho ;)

2:15 pm

stidmama

is he also a musician then?

2:15 pm

stidmama

well the easiest way to avoid that of course is... *knowing nod*

2:15 pm

redturtlehead

Oh no, He has no musical talent, just thousands of CD's. My Mum is the musician in the family.

2:16 pm

stidmama

*stage whisper* don't drink too much of the brewed beverages

2:16 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

the world is my rodster????

2:16 pm

redturtlehead

As I kid I used to have to tolerate multiple phases of musical interests....Arentha Franklin at 6 am was not really my favorite. The Gregorian Chant phase was much easier in the morning.

2:16 pm

Atalante

2:41 pm

Scrabbler

I am a vegetarian too, Seain.

2:41 pm

Atalante

hi TO!

2:41 pm

dcseain

ni8 is a gerund

2:41 pm

Anniebrook

amuse bouche is a perfect description...served in little wood steamers

2:41 pm

dcseain

2:41 pm

harpjane

thanks

2:41 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:42 pm

2:43 pm

2:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:43 pm

KatieMcG

2:43 pm

dcseain

2:43 pm

Atalante

2:43 pm

KatieMcG

Hi TO :-)

2:44 pm

Haz1558

ni8 - anagram what you do when you eat out and combine it with what you wear on your finger

2:44 pm

dcseain

oh, good one, haz

2:44 pm

redturtlehead

you can Atalante, its not a specific thing, DIm sum is a meal where you pick and choose little things...

2:44 pm

Haz1558

Thanks, dc.

2:44 pm

dcseain

yes,i ould, ata

2:45 pm

redturtlehead

I think it mightbe hard to really replicate the whole DIm sum experiencee at home.

2:45 pm

dcseain

indeed, red

2:45 pm

Atalante

yes, I think so too. But for veggies, it might be better than no dim sum!

2:45 pm

bichon

We used to go to Chinatown in New York just for Dim Sum

2:46 pm

Atalante

you can get wonderful dim sum in Zurich, strangely enough

2:46 pm

redturtlehead

I believe it.

2:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

whe you go for dim sum, do you aask what the items are? and if so can the servers tell you? no tin my case, that unnerved me.

2:47 pm

bichon

you can just point

2:47 pm

Atalante

I've also had things with small labels so I could see

2:47 pm

Anniebrook

Owl, in my case only if you understand Chinese

2:47 pm

redturtlehead

I used to go all the time when i was dating a chinese guy, since he spoke chinese I generally know what I was eating, enerally.

2:47 pm

Pinikula

you might say hors d'oeuvres are a non-asian style of Dim Sum...

2:48 pm

redturtlehead

But sometimes its fun to just eat it no matter what it is.

2:48 pm

72 Temple Owl

bichon, i have to know what i'm eating. just one of my many quirks! :)

3:55 pm

Scrabbler

So, Owl, any shortness of breath? Any sweating? Any arm or jaw pain?

3:55 pm

Michnick

Ommigosh, we're all from Philly!

3:55 pm

3:55 pm

yep, MIchnick

3:56 pm

redturtlehead

I;ve had a few with just Nausea. but they always looked foul, like pale and horrid. Do you look pale and horrid int he mirror?

3:56 pm

Tomato sauce and other foods give me bad indigestion, heart burn...and an acid blocker helps me in about an hour.

3:56 pm

72 Temple Owl

red: pale and horrid is my usual complexion

3:56 pm

PAV3

I only take Immodium when I haven't any Pepcid around...and by then it's Immodium or stay awake all night

3:56 pm

periwinkle

I hate the word, Philly

3:56 pm

Michnick

Sit up Owl, I find laying down makes it much worse.

3:57 pm

I have only had heartburn one time when some Ibuprofen dissolved in my esophagus not the stomach and it was really really horrid.

4:00 pm

near Bala Cynywd

4:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

that airport was never meant to receive the kind and size of traffic it does now. the public be damned.

4:01 pm

Scrabbler

That plane crash story has been my obsession for the last few days--so amazing!

4:01 pm

Michnick

Ahh, A lot of my camp friends came from Bala Cynwyd area. My mom's in an independent/assisted living place in Media.

4:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

scrbas it stirkes terror in my heart, it truly does.

4:02 pm

Michnick

That's freaky Owl. I lived on the Upper West Side for a while, the nightmares we'd never even dream!

4:02 pm

periwinkle

really, Mich. I used to be a social worker and was probably in that facility for a conference or something

4:02 pm

72 Temple Owl

wheni sit in my dad's living room it seems as if the planes are going to come right through

4:02 pm

4:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

scrabs, money talks and there is BIG money using that airport so as not to experience the inconvenience of ewrak, laguardia or kennedy

4:03 pm

Michnick

It's pretty nice, she's happy there which is what really matters. She is still independent but definitely needs the back up and the socializing that type of place provides.

4:04 pm

pam

sounds great, mich!

4:04 pm

Scrabbler

Yep, Owl, those seeking power, prestige, control and money are in charge.

4:04 pm

periwinkle

glad she likes it there. do you plan to visit anytime soon, Mich?

4:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

i mean the faa made them sondproof the schools because they are in the flight pattern - that is sobering

4:05 pm

Michnick

It is great Pam, just hard because she is far from all of us. I was there last March and was hoping to come this spring again but money isn't what it was a year ago so I have to see.

4:05 pm

Scrabbler

Awful, Owl.

4:06 pm

pam

the areas in boston and ny that are in the flight paths have sound-proofing windows, too, TO....

4:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

it's bad when the use changes it;s not as if the people knew and moved there.

4:06 pm

pam

Did she not want to make aliyah with you, Mich? Does she have other family here?

4:06 pm

pam

Oh, I see what you are saying, TO

4:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

the smartest thing was in la where they actually empited that part of town..it's freaky to see it was you take off or land there.

4:08 pm

Michnick

I am one of 4 kids and only one other sister ever wanted to make Aliya but that never happened. My mom is to independent to move somewhere where she can't speak the language, drive her car, etc. She used to come once a year or more but hasn't come since her heart attack 4 yrs ago.

4:09 pm

pam

It would be hard for her to adjust now, Mich. And, if the rest of your family is here, that ould be hard, too.

4:10 pm

Michnick

My oldest sister is moving to Rome next week, but she wouldn't move now anyway. We tried to talk her into it around 10 years ago. She was much healthier then.

4:10 pm

Michnick

I mean my mom wouldn't move, not my sister.

4:11 pm

pam

Healthy is everything, mich. I knew you meant your mom....

4:11 pm

Scrabbler

I am loving this John Adams mini-series..Paul Giamatti is great.

4:12 pm

That's right Pam. I became disabled because of med. negligence so my mom never trusted the Israeli medical system. Even though it could have happened anywhere.

4:59 pm

Eva

feather-I always remind myself how much I would want someone intelligent and thoughtful and kind on a jury if I were the defendant

5:00 pm

JBV

5:00 pm

cybernan

I keep wandering off....

5:00 pm

Aussieme

5:00 pm

redturtlehead

Oooh I am getting a bit wierd. There is this great initiative to place a lot of wireless cables in Africa to reach remote areas....nice, but a lot of those people in remote areas arent literate.....

5:00 pm

Scrabbler

TY, JBV

5:00 pm

jbp

great clue jbv and congrats

5:00 pm

featherbee

5:00 pm

lil*monkey

5:01 pm

Scrabbler

"This too shall pass."

5:02 pm

jbp

5:02 pm

Eva

It is a bit nerve wracking feather- but it's good that you feel that way. It means that you take it seriously. As the daughter of refugess from a fascist government, I have to admit that jury duty still seems like an honor to me. And I've been impressed, when I've served, at how people really rise to their best when they are jurors.

5:03 pm

cybernan

any clues for the in 7-5-6 in the middle?

jbp

She sat in the middle of the main road, cars going past her (before the police came), and took 50 dihydracodeine. The police and the ambulance arrived at the same time (almost). We almost lost her on the way to the hospital, but thankfully, got her in time.......
