2:14 am

VolleymomDee

two fe 6's 1st is fe 6/30... when you are trying to get rid of dead skin or pimples you put a mask on ... this 1st fe just changes the 1st vowel of that word

2:15 am

jillibus

VolleymomDee

the al 6 is a ladies name al + the 1st 4 letters of the building you go to see an opera

Atalante

how's stewart today, lynx?

5:17 am

herinfernallady

Ata how is you?

5:17 am

lynxxx

He's OK. He's gone back to being a bit fearful over the last few days, a bit clingy too. Not sure if it was his 'incident' or perhaps his eye, which I think he injured as he had a swelling on the iris. Its gone down but keeping an eye on it (so to speak) - Vet said to give it 3 days

5:18 am

Merk

Good morning

5:18 am

Lizsark

hello all - time I stopped lurking... *giggle*

5:18 am

herinfernallady

hi Merk & Liz

5:18 am

herinfernallady

Hi Liiiiiz

5:18 am

Atalante

poor boy!

5:18 am

Atalante

hi Lurky Liz!

5:19 am

Lizsark

Herin! ATTTTTAAA!

5:19 am

Lizsark

LOL

5:19 am

Lizsark

Ata - I had an awful email this morning warning me about dog ball toys that have only one hole in them...

5:20 am

Atalante

*thinks* have we got any one hole ball toys?

5:20 am

lynxxx

like those Kongs? what's wrong

5:20 am

Lizsark

Apparently a labrador playing with one got his tongue sucked into it when a vacuum was created and ended up having to have his tongue amputated

5:20 am

Atalante

kongs have 2 holes

5:20 am

Atalante

oh NO!!! poor baby!!

5:20 am

Lizsark

No, Lynxxx, Kongs have a hole at both ends

5:21 am

lynxxx

Noooooo!

5:21 am

herinfernallady

oh poor dog.

5:21 am

Lizsark

This particular one was made by a company called Four Paws

5:21 am

herinfernallady

Kongs also know have dog food in a tube too for inside of kong

5:21 am

Lizsark

Be warned!

5:22 am

Atalante

I'll check all Hobbit's toys. She has loads of toys, but never plays with them!

5:22 am

herinfernallady

Lynxx what happened to Stewart?

5:22 am

Lizsark

Oscar had a ball like that but I have a feeling he's lost it somewhere. But I'm definitely checking when I get home. The email had photos - horrible

5:22 am

lynxxx

Same here - except the lamb toy

5:24 am

Atalante

hobbit's favourite is a squeaky stick. she likes that, and her kong, and all other toys are shoved under a chair

5:24 am

lynxxx

Infernal, the eye injury os probably from shoving his head into bushes which he does all the time. The other 'incident' he took one of those 'fences' they have around tables on footpaths for a bit of a run. Luckily no obvious damage to either him or cars

5:25 am

Lizsark

Oscar's favourite dog toy is a ropey thing but he really prefers pinching the kids toys to be honest - Sams footballs dont stand a chance

5:25 am

Atalante

liz, did you hear about Stew's little escapade? It might even outrank Oscar

5:25 am

herinfernallady

OH dear silly dog

5:25 am

Lizsark

Ouch Lynxxx!

5:26 am

Lizsark

Why Ata? Did he throw himself off a cliff???

5:26 am

Atalante

no - just the fence thing. Lynx tied him to the fence, but he dashed off with the fence still attached to him

5:26 am

Atalante

oops, yes, like she said!

5:26 am

Lizsark

OMG! Maybe he's distantly related....

5:27 am

Lizsark

I tied Oscar to a metal cafe chair that was padlocked to 4 other chairs yesterday and he managed to drag them halfway up the road

5:27 am

herinfernallady

lol Liz

5:27 am

Atalante

oh dear ...... LOL

5:27 am

Lizsark

He just wanted his mummy!! :))

5:28 am

lynxxx

I can laugh!

5:29 am

herinfernallady

OH fur brat climbed up to the top of the window

5:29 am

Atalante

I was waiting to turn into a tiny road earlier - the roads from home to the best woods are tiny - they can hardly fit a car down them, and I was waiting for a car to come past in the other direction - and there was a pheasant in the fields a few metres away. omg. I thought Hobbit was going to bash her way through the window!

5:29 am

lynxxx

I bet Oscar is the most infamous dog on Sark

5:29 am

Lizsark

LOL Ata, I'm just glad I dont have to deal with cars here

5:30 am

herinfernallady

omgomgomgomgomgogm muuuuuum pheasant want mumumumumum

5:56 am

Atalante

5:57 am

Atalante

is sexpay what prostitues earn?

5:57 am

Eva

odd to come in on steampunk (what is that when it;s home?) and corsets.

5:58 am

Atalante

Steampunk is a subgenre of fantasy and speculative fiction that came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world where steam power is still widely usedâ€”usually the 19th century, and often set in Victorian era Englandâ€”but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or real technological developments like the computer occurring at an earlier date.

5:58 am

Atalante

so people create steam-driven computers, everything we have and could have but steam driven

5:59 am

Eva

thank you so much ata for the great definition. Never heard of it before. Just found out about fanfic a little while ago, which is one of the funniest, but also neat ideas.

5:59 am

LoriP

G'd morning Eva

5:59 am

Eva

morning lori.

6:00 am

Eva

So do people play this out in real life, hence the corsets?

6:00 am

Atalante

yes, people make the most *amazing* costumes

6:01 am

Eva

I'm so glad not to live in a corset era!

6:02 am

herinfernallady

I am trying to find a really awesome site

6:02 am

Atalante

type in steampunk costumes into google images and have a look!

6:04 am

LoriP

I love corsets, I've always thought they were beautiful.

6:04 am

Anniebrook

al7 is an alternate spelling of al6

I truly wish my internet would speed up so that I can babble again...it's been ages since it was fast enough!

9:39 am

ty, PMS (first time I've ever said that!)

9:39 am

Krista

hey there stranger!

9:39 am

Haz1558

Hello Uniquity! Bad internet, that's all I say.

9:39 am

Haz1558

nu7/36 - relating to marriage/weddings

I just got the NU 6/21; we need to get plenty of NU***ents every day + first vowel

ARRRGGGHH sorry

9:40 am

Krista

and thank you dang haven't done that in ages

Thanks :)

9:40 am

Haz1558

nu6 - 5/16 - nu plus first letters of British heir, then latin plural for nu6/27

How are you doing, Uni?

9:41 am

Krista

anytime, lol

9:41 am

You're welcome, Krista.

9:42 am

Uniquity

I'm well, Haz. Off to school shortly and scratched by the cat, but babbling, so happy :) Yourseld?

9:43 am

Haz1558

I'm very well, thanks. I've been predicting the arrival of spring for days but nobody seems to take any notice.

9:43 am

Haz1558

You've chosen a challenging type of grid to come back on.

9:43 am

car.eeyore

phantom: catapult

9:43 am

Uniquity

Ah, Spring. Hard to have faith when it is -21C out...before windchill

9:44 am

Haz1558

I know. But it will come, honestly. Just not tomorrow.

9:44 am

Uniquity

I've been trying to come back for weeks, but my internet says no. I can only get a word accepted every once in a while, so I always give up.

9:45 am

Haz1558

That's a shame. Your rankings must be rubbish by now, I'm surprised I'm talking to you at all. Your mother was on top not that long ago. The smugness could be felt from here.

9:46 am

Uniquity

LoriP? Smug? Never..

9:46 am

Haz1558

I don't know, when she finds words beginning with yt, she's deservedly smug.

9:47 am

Uniquity

Are you saying there are words beginning with yt in here...

9:48 am

Haz1558

I'm saying that, indeed. But nobody else knows that I told you so you can be smug as well.

9:48 am

Haz1558

yt6 and yt6.

9:50 am

Uniquity

I can't remember the word I was supposed to remember to enter...having babble say "Word couldn't be added" repeatedly is exhausting!

9:51 am

Haz1558

You mean a word that flitted through your head but didn't stay long enough to register properly?

9:52 am

Haz1558

Or are you getting red messages?

9:52 am

Uniquity

No, it went from head to fingertips to keyboard to babble, but the iNet went too slow for babble to get it. Or something like that. I have to enter each word 3 or 4 times for it get to my word list.

9:53 am

Uniquity

Red Messages:(

9:53 am

That must be ul5/12 frustrating!

9:54 am

Madi95

can i please have aclue for nu6/27?

9:54 am

Haz1558

nu6/27 - if you have nu5/16, add a vowel to the end.

9:55 am

Madi95

thanks

Hello Trif.

Trifioso

10:07 am

periwinkle

fried rice with ginger sounds delish

10:07 am

Haz1558

ha6 - it ends in a facial twitch, flosey.

10:08 am

stidmama

it feels better, as does the rest of me. Still obviously not normal, but functional today. thanks.

10:08 am

stidmama

mmmmm. ginger....

10:08 am

flosey

thanks Haz, have never seen that one before

10:08 am

10:08 am

Haz1558

No, it's a new one to me, too.

10:08 am

periwinkle

need some recipes for ginger. Have some in the fridge

10:09 am

Trifioso

actually peri, it was slightly overwhelming - should have maybe just fried the ginger in the oil and then removed the actual slices. i left them in there, which was a bit much

10:09 am

stidmama

I like making ginger tea, and ginger-tofu stir fry is yummy

10:09 am

flosey

peri, did you get KJE's recipe for ginger cookies - they

10:09 am

flosey

they've become my most favourite

10:09 am

periwinkle

no I didn't, flosey, but I have nrkii's recipe for pumpkin muffins

10:09 am

Trifioso

i think I would like to try candying ginger, but it takes forever

10:09 am

flosey

(not using fresh ginger though, which is what you're asking)

10:09 am

periwinkle

I would like the recipe for the ginger cookies tho

10:10 am

periwinkle

using fresh ginger, but I do have powdered ginger as well

10:10 am

flosey

ok, I'll put it into my bio

10:10 am

periwinkle

thanks flosey

10:10 am

stidmama

AE?????

10:10 am

periwinkle

can you e-mail it to me, flosey?

10:10 am

flosey

no, I'll email it to you, as I have it as a doc.

10:11 am

periwinkle

ok, thanks, wonder if I could make gingerbread with the same recipe

10:11 am

hlj25950

you could do mongolian beef

10:11 am

Trifioso

flosey, i would like that recipe too, if you are sharing

10:11 am

Haz1558

ae5 - ae plus American Secret Service initials. The 6 makes into a Mr Gore ending.

10:12 am

periwinkle

I am missing 2 of the 7's. I have al, ch, ti, un.

10:12 am

stidmama

10:13 am

joshuavorbis

ac6 - not imaginary

10:13 am

lizmac

I BEG your pardon , Haz, I am NEVER wet and drippy. Yes, it's drizzling here too.

10:13 am

joshuavorbis

al7 is alternate spelling of the al6

10:13 am

Haz1558

ac6 - the sort of *poof* that Montreal announces when he really, really is going.

10:13 am

stidmama

ah thanks joshua...

10:13 am

periwinkle

al6 is a woman's name

10:13 am

periwinkle

too late :(

10:13 am

stidmama

I am sure I missed it because of my persistant (and highly vivid) fantasy life...

10:13 am

Haz1558

I thought so, liz. It's a pain, isn't it?

10:14 am

stidmama

got the As thanks!

10:14 am

periwinkle

I wanted to make nrkii's pumpkin choc chip muffins, but alas do not have any canned pumpkin. Was out already today and do not want to go out in the cold again.

10:15 am

lizmac

Certainly is, I've been virtually hibernating since before Christmas, can't wait for "Spring"

10:15 am

Aloyisius

Hi Babblers ! Fun grid today?

10:15 am

periwinkle

I may make blondies instead. Choc chip cookies but in a pan.

10:15 am

periwinkle

no Aloy, having trouble with it

10:15 am

Trifioso

oh, amen to THAT liz! the driveway has been an ice rink for weeks now. just three warm days would make such a huge difference

10:15 am

stidmama

((((aloyisius)))) really hoping you're in florida today.... it's cold up north!

10:15 am

Haz1558

I made the mistake of announcing spring when I glimpsed the sun for a morning. I'm not very good with predicting weather.

10:16 am

SharonRA

can someone clue the ex 6?

10:16 am

stidmama

ci 6 pleasE?

10:16 am

Haz1558

Hello Aloy! I wouldn't call it a fun grid, no.

10:16 am

hurshy

ex5 + vowel

10:16 am

stidmama

add a vowel to ex 5

10:16 am

Haz1558

ex6 -adds a vowel to the end of the precise ex5

10:17 am

Aloyisius

I am in Florida, stid... but we had a nasty frost on the 22nd and it is "ugly" time around here for sure.. the cold blitzed so much..

10:17 am

hurshy

ci6 odd sort of adj for oranges lemons etc

10:17 am

stidmama

hello hurshy!

10:17 am

Haz1558

ci6/21 - looks like a lemony beginning and a Mr Gore ending

10:17 am

flosey

Peri - 16 words to go, I'll email it to you after I finish the puzzle

10:17 am

SharonRA

thank you...I didn't know thqat word

10:22 am

SharonRA

nu's are hard, too

10:23 am

Haz1558

As if any of us would ever do such things, stid. We're all poetry in motion.

10:23 am

stidmama

I have all but the last NU, do you want help?

10:23 am

stidmama

10:23 am

Trifioso

I am gonna go "add value" - be back later to finish, hopefully. have a peaceful day, friends

10:23 am

SharonRA

Drink of the gods?

10:24 am

stidmama

first nu 5 is NU + *** *** *** (latin dance); latin plural for the 6

NU 7 is the marriage ceremony, usually seen in plural, this is singular

10:25 am

joshuavorbis

ne6 - libation of the gods

10:25 am

10:40 am

to the americans: a film called Eden Lake came out in UK last Monday on dvd - it was out in Cinema/Movies a while back. you shoud check it out

10:40 am

Judi

Never heard of it, bfsog. Is it an Indy film?

10:41 am

Aloyisius

you have done really well, joshua.. i normally hit the list 3/4 of the way through

10:41 am

bfsog

hm a little yes little no. its british, from the Producer of The Descent. It is pretty violent in places but it strikes a cord with me by showing an accurate portrayel of UK youths today

10:42 am

flosey

missing last ri6, any clues please

10:42 am

joshuavorbis

ahhh, some somewhat obscure colors in this grid

10:42 am

flosey

got it,

10:42 am

Judi

Interesting. I will look for it at Blockbuster or on our pay-per-view.

10:43 am

bfsog

US probably has it too but in the UK yob culture, muggings/stabbings/generally crime is a problem - im not too old but i distance myself from younger people because they are a different breed, in my opinion

10:43 am

joshuavorbis

last ri6- repetitive, symbolic cultural acts

10:44 am

Judi

Sigh. Same here bfsog. I think there is at least one whole generation which seems to have grown up without any parental oversight whatsoever.

Yes! After two years at that madhouse they called a residency position, that'd be GREAT! I still would prefer the art studio for brain damage victims but they very rarely have openings, and this one would be SOOOOO much better than everything I have applied for...

12:54 pm

redturtlehead

I think one day I would enjoy a solitary job...

12:55 pm

stidmama

LOL red... poor girl. you need a vacation.

12:55 pm

MonkeyGames

Not to mention it is a civil service job, which means a secure pension plan in this time of recessive insecurity, and a simply obscene number of vacation days.

12:56 pm

MonkeyGames

Poor red! But you're a HERO! You'll just have to live with that.

12:56 pm

redturtlehead

I really really do! I am actually trying to relax all day today and do nithing.

12:56 pm

MonkeyGames

That takes PRACTICE. Trust me. Keep plugging away, you'll get it.

12:56 pm

No cranes, i ran into our favorite Ibis, in the parking lot.

12:57 pm

MonkeyGames

You're right, Stid! I will do it Thursday when I actually have the thing in hand. The degree on paper, that is.

12:57 pm

stidmama

I will stay until mixi has firewords and then go finish the paper for Wednesday. WHY are one-page papers harder to write than 5 page?

12:57 pm

MonkeyGames

Is it a Komondor, red?

12:57 pm

stidmama

you have an ibis??? *envious look*

12:57 pm

MonkeyGames

12:58 pm

12:58 pm

Monkey, a good nutritionist will not forbid fun foods like cupcakes.

1:03 pm

MonkeyGames

I lost 11 kilos and then it just stopped, no matter what I do. Still have 20 kilos to lose.

1:03 pm

redturtlehead

If they forbid any food, you need to find another.

1:03 pm

stidmama

why all over, monkey? are we going on a diet?

1:03 pm

o-o

ch r is a plural

1:04 pm

Krista

hi Annie

Garam masala rocks. But so do Bengali Masala, Kashmiri Masala, and Hindustani Masala...

1:17 pm

Krista

your own aromatherapy tx

1:17 pm

Atalante

garam masala is very important for my favourite favourite dish ever, a west indian style curry with halloumi cheese

1:17 pm

Judi

Masala is a roasted chicken dish, right?

1:18 pm

Krista

i think it just means spice

1:18 pm

MonkeyGames

Long Pepper meanwhile smells like some sort of wildl animal that has been running for too long. But MAN does it bring flavors out! And let's not even get stareted on asa FOETIDa...

1:18 pm

Krista

mmm...you people always make me hungry...what is the name of the dish, Ata?

1:19 pm

MonkeyGames

Masala means a complex spice mix, like curry powder. Curry powder is a masala. So is Ras-el-hanout.

1:19 pm

MonkeyGames

Mmmmmm, Ata... will be looking that up!

1:19 pm

Atalante

ummmm I just call it cheese curry lol, it's a recipe handed down from about 5 people to me via my mum and her friend and her friend

1:20 pm

Krista

i like a jalfrezi

1:20 pm

Judi

Ah. I have learned something new today.

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Please send recipe to kmcoo@chello.nl I will send recipe from culture of your choice in return (plese limit to various asian and/or Ethiopian/Eritrean).

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Or Mexican.

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Or Dutch.

1:21 pm

as much as we talk about food here, you'd think someone would have started a recipe group

1:21 pm

Krista

hmmm...

1:21 pm

fuquayvarina

back again for a few. ata, did you ever get those e words at the top? (or anyone else?) I have one ex5, but can't get the other two.

1:21 pm

Atalante

lol just thinking how long it would be if I typed it in here. not long, because it's all very vague

1:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Were you here when I spent about half an hour telling Pinikula how to make Loempia?

1:22 pm

Krista

this will make u laugh, Monkey...when i think of Dutch food, I think of toast with chocolate sprinkles because that's what our exchange student ate every day

1:22 pm

mixi6

ex5 + vowel.

1:23 pm

fuquayvarina

ah, ty mixi!

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

I can handle very vague. I have a Palestinian step-grandmother who just says, "Some of this, less of that, more of this, fry until done..."

1:23 pm

BettyAnne

I wonder if someone can help me. It still says I need one "a" but according to the list I have all of them. Has anyone faced this problem?

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

Ahhhhh, hagelslag! Yes, they do NOT travel without it. Essential foodstuff, that.

1:23 pm

mixi6

the other is an ep5,14

1:23 pm

car.eeyore

why isn't capri a word?

1:24 pm

fuquayvarina

ty again, mixi.

1:24 pm

Atalante

actually, yes, I'll just shove it in. This is the basics. Chop an onion and fry, add garlic to taste, chilli to taste. Add can of chopped tomato and a squirt of tomato puree. Chop up a pack of halloumi cheese into about 1" cubes. Add some frozen peas. Add a stick of cinnamon, 4 or 5 cloves, 7 or 8 black peppercorns into the tomato mix. Add halloumi and fry for a few minutes until the cheese is slightly browned and a bit squishy. That's the basic, I used add in mushrooms too.

1:24 pm

1:25 pm

I'm so bad at quantities with that recipe, I've just cooked it soooo many times that I just know what works!

1:25 pm

mixi6

check that all in you list, are in babble.

1:25 pm

MonkeyGames

Freakin' yummm, Ata! Will be making that this week. Don't worry, I'm experienced enough to balance it out to our tastes.

1:25 pm

Atalante

if you like fragrant curries and halloumi, it's simply the best thing ever

1:25 pm

Judi

So, it's basically fried cheese with miscellaneous bits thrown in, right, Ata?

1:25 pm

MonkeyGames

Although for my husband's tastes you forgot the 35 extremely hot Nepali chilis...

1:26 pm

Atalante

bugger I forgot the garam masala! shove some in with the other spices!

1:26 pm

BettyAnne

Thanks mixi

1:26 pm

MonkeyGames

You got it. I'd have notived... It'd also work with Panneer. Must make a batch...

1:26 pm

Judi

LOL, Ata!

1:26 pm

Atalante

basically! but its the garam masala, cloves, cinnamon, pepper and you can add ginger too that give it real yumminess

1:27 pm

MonkeyGames

Judi, most down-home food fits your description... But the proportions are key.

1:27 pm

Atalante

now I need to make some too

1:28 pm

MonkeyGames

Add some cardamom to the boiling milk. Mmmmm!

1:28 pm

Krista

copy/pasted that, ata..yum yum

1:29 pm

I want to take some ibuprofen, but the doctor said today I have been taking enough to perforate my intestines, so that's out. Who has lower back tips?

1:29 pm

Atalante

paracetamol?

1:29 pm

Atalante

hot water bottles

1:30 pm

MonkeyGames

Yeah, it sometimes kind of takes the edge off... using a hot water bottle. Sigh. Must just get used to it. So says the orthopedist, anyway.

1:30 pm

Holey intestines, Bat Man! Heating pad. Back bends (bend backward from the waist about 20 times, 3 sets). Ice pack. Massage, accupuncture. Morphine. Okay. I'm out.

1:31 pm

Atalante

can you get TENS machines?

1:32 pm

fuquayvarina

dang, must go back the grind. bbl

1:33 pm

MonkeyGames

Acupuncture made it worse, MUCH to my surprise. Will try these bends! Tried TENS. May resort to opiates... but now that I think of it I'll go for something legal here but not where you folks are..... Massage sure would be nice though! Husband has bad whatever you call writer's crampo when it's not from writing, can't do it.

1:33 pm

1:34 pm

That's the one. After the first ten years one begins to use it sensibly.

1:34 pm

Have him use a tennis ball, Monkey. That way, he can keep his hand flat and the ball does all the work.

1:35 pm

Oh, GOOD idea!!!! I'll hit him up for that shortly! Wow! Sold!

The cheese I am most looking for right now though is this one I had twoce in Duisberg, Germany, in beer cheese soup. Very sour, melted just right for the soup. Wish I knew what that was. Mighttry phoning a pub in Duisberg-- once I find a German speaker to back me up.

1:41 pm

I got it under control when Walter was 14 months old an dhe's been sleeping for 12 hours straight sice. I also am nearly reacovered from those early days.

1:53 pm

Lizsark

1:54 pm

car.eeyore

Doing well! Zach is about to get off the bus from his first afternoon kindergarten day, so i am anxiously awaiting to see how it went for him!

1:54 pm

Krista

1:55 pm

Atalante

aknitter!!!

1:55 pm

SaddySolar

mine goes to sleep all right

1:55 pm

Lizsark

Krista, my Megan is 3 now and she often still gets up in the night - but I'm lazy I just get her in bed with me and go right back to sleep

1:55 pm

aknitter

afternoon kindergarten was a drag, they just wanted to get going in the a.m.

1:55 pm

SaddySolar

but wakes up a dozen times still all groggy and just needs to be cuddled

1:55 pm

aknitter

message krista?

1:55 pm

car.eeyore

With Zach's non-sleep issues, he is much better in the late morning/afternoons!

1:55 pm

aknitter

hi ata

1:55 pm

MonkeyGames

Walter started life by having a crisis at 1 hour old and needing a week of intesive care after which the staff called him "that miracle baby, you know, the real fighter". THEN he had the sleep issues. Knocked me baclk at least 30 IQ points.

1:55 pm

Krista

i sent you an email via Trifioso

1:56 pm

MonkeyGames

He was up after 1 1/2 hours of sleep like clockwork, and hard to get back down.

1:56 pm

SaddySolar

lol i agree... my vocabulary has dwindles to coos and ga gas

1:56 pm

car.eeyore

I know Trif is collecting them to send along.

1:56 pm

Krista

thats what we did, Liz, or we wouldn't have survived..whatever works!

1:57 pm

Judi

Aknitter! Broken but still Babbling! What a trooper!

1:57 pm

aknitter

oh trif printed them all and snail mailed them. i have to wait for someone to go get the mail as i am not allowed out

1:57 pm

Lizsark

Talking of IQ Monkey - my vet once told me that he reckoned a woman lost a quarter of her brain cells with every child she had - he was slightly confused when I pointed out the fact that his wife has 4 children....

1:57 pm

Lizsark

Absolutely Krista :)

1:57 pm

aknitter

lol liz perhaps he lost brain cells

1:57 pm

Krista

ah, that's nice...will be fun to get them I hope

1:58 pm

Judi

LOLOLOL, Liz. I think I would have changed doctors at that point.

1:58 pm

Krista

ROFL Liz!

1:58 pm

MonkeyGames

Hee hee! But really, it would be like half-life-- you only lose a quarter of what's left.

1:58 pm

aknitter

i can not wait for the mail. i am very excited krista

1:58 pm

Lizsark

Judi - I would have only he's the vet not the doctor!

1:58 pm

MonkeyGames

Could that go on forever? Is it a new Xeno's Paradox?

1:58 pm

Lizsark

LOL Monkey

1:59 pm

Judi

Well, there go my brain cells. And I have no children to blame the loss on.

1:59 pm

Krista

1:59 pm

I'll be 40 tomorrow. Doesn't that give me both a fresh start AND an immediate elderliness sentence?

Yes and yes, Monkey. Congratulations and condolences.

Aaaaugh... must not poof yet! Judi! Danny tells me there is a new Zappa beer that is a very limited release and is out now. We are shockingly broke, but we'll go through the whole thing again for three bottles. Are you up for it?

2:04 pm

Atalante

I've had an idea for fundraising for you, Liz. Give me a few days to consider it and I'll tell you. Does that make me a heeeero?

2:04 pm

MonkeyGames

Thanks, Car!

2:04 pm

Lizsark

sorry got sidetracked then by Oscar unearthing children from their beds....

2:05 pm

Atalante

lmao! brat dog

2:05 pm

Lizsark

Ata thats sounds wonderful I'm waiting with baited breathe

2:05 pm

Lizsark

serves me right for saying he sleeps downstairs

2:05 pm

Judi

Let me see if I can find it, Monkey. I may not make it to the mega beer outlet until this weekend though.

2:06 pm

Judi

What is the name of it?

2:07 pm

Atalante

were the kids enjoying being turfed out of bed?

2:07 pm

Lizsark

yes they thought it was hilarious!

2:07 pm

MonkeyGames

OK! That's a fine start. Whenever you happen to get there, look for "Reuben and the Jets" or "Cruising With Reuben and the Jets" beer. Let me know if you see any. And thanks!

2:08 pm

MonkeyGames

Meanwhile I'll write my brother and aunt, but, entirely contrasting with you, they have been entirely unreliable regarding the securing of Fine Beers intercontinentally. They keep forgetting to look for it.

2:10 pm

TinaB

Still here debs?

2:10 pm

Judi

Is that made by Lanquinista as well, Monkey? I've written it down. I'll let you know what I find. Promise not to forget like unreliable relatives.

2:10 pm

Atalante

Hobbit has a new collar today *random*

2:10 pm

2:11 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh, and I will track down my obscure cousin who said when I met him this summer that he has a "beer guy". Oh, you replied! Yes, Lagunitas and a good chance the last one in the zappa series. Thank you, but don't stress on it please!

2:12 pm

Atalante

it's purple :)

2:12 pm

Judi

How about we trade for a package of the green bud from Amsterdam. Brother has cancer and is in quite a bit of pain. Just kidding. Trafficking drugs simply will not do.

2:12 pm

debs63

yt + what paul daniels does

2:12 pm

Lizsark

Now see, that would just ruin Oscar's street cred if I did that to him :P

2:13 pm

MonkeyGames

You'd better be kidding. That is NOT funny to the U.S. Really. They come after people. But no worries, I KNOW you're kiding!

2:14 pm

MonkeyGames

Unless you want to pick it up... I'd be happy to get you a baggie at Willie Wortel's or such and let you take it home yourself.

2:15 pm

Judi

I am totally kidding. I'm sure customs officials here have hell hounds ready to sniff anything with the word "Amsterdam" on it. Uptight buggers if you ask me.

2:15 pm

Vicuna

Speaking of uptight, if there can be a sexpot, why not a sexpan?

2:15 pm

Atalante

hobbit looks *very* smart :D at least it's not pink!

2:15 pm

Vicuna

Hello, folks.

2:16 pm

Lizsark

hello Vicuna :))

2:16 pm

Lizsark

Well if Oscar was female he'd definitely be wearing pink - Megan wouldn't have it any other way!

2:16 pm

MonkeyGames

Sure. But this also a Disproportionately Serious Issue." For some reason it has become a hideously inflated Big Deal. That said, I don't want to soud preachy-- I totally knew you had to be kidding and so it's really funny!

2:16 pm

Vicuna

Ewwww.... pink. lol

2:17 pm

Vicuna

Our Nightshade wears nothing but royal blue.

2:18 pm

Lizsark

Oscar is black and has a black collar (but he also has a blue one, a green one and a red one lol)

2:19 pm

Vicuna

Oh my, what a well-dressed canine.

2:19 pm

MonkeyGames

Saskia is fawn and has a bright orange harness.

2:19 pm

Atalante

Hobbit only has purple collars, imported especially from the US! It's impossibel to get purple collars here

2:19 pm

MonkeyGames

I can get you purple collars.

2:20 pm

Judi

;-) Besides, Monkey... there's plenty of home grown bud to be found here. Wouldn't ever have to have it imported. Just that pesky "illegal" factor about it.

2:20 pm

Vicuna

Seriously, Ata? No really, seriously?

2:20 pm

Atalante

seriously LOL!! not intentionally, but I know a black lab in the US that has a purple collar, and I really wanted one for Hobbit. I couldn't find *any* over here so best friend sent one over!

2:21 pm

TinaB

Finally got it - this is so stressful!!

2:21 pm

Vicuna

I don't know why, but that totally cracks me up.

2:21 pm

Judi

I'm shocked, Ata. Purple is such a royal color. I should think the UK would be awash in it.

2:21 pm

Atalante

cos its funny!

2:22 pm

Vicuna

Only the queen is allowed to wear a purple collar int he UK! lol

2:22 pm

Atalante

brb

2:22 pm

Vicuna

Okay, maybe her corgies can, too.

2:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Hyuk, hyuk! Actually if they feel like saying you imported it thay can just say so. That said, I have heard that internally local enforcement does realize there are more serious public health and order issues, and so there is no actual famine.

2:22 pm

What's so hard about getting purple collars? Buy purple shirts ..

2:22 pm

Lizsark

2:23 pm

Vicuna

I think the problem, tor, is that Hobbit doesn't care for dress shirts.

2:23 pm

MonkeyGames

But the first point is one reason why legalizartion is a good idea: once something is legal it can be regulated, and that's why prohibition failed of course.

2:24 pm

Judi

We shall have to start a protest group: "Purple Collars for British Canines". When's a good day for a march?

2:24 pm

Vicuna

March 4th.

2:24 pm

MonkeyGames

They legalized prostitution here a few years ago, and there was an immediate vivid drop in women doing it against their will, abuse of working girls, and venereal disease. Not to mention they have a union now and a three-minute police response when the red button gets pushed.

2:24 pm

Even if we don't march, it's a good theme for Babble. Purple collars. Let the word go forth.

2:25 pm

Oh, must go listen to son's piano practice. I have been invited to enjoy the grace notes. Back in a bit.

lil*monkey

4:55 pm

4:56 pm

torgone

Well, look who's here ..

4:56 pm

tygerbryght

monk, the nurse who came out Sat to re-analyze me told me it's a common thing, and "easily managed"

4:56 pm

lil*monkey

no canned food or frozen prepared food, tyger

4:56 pm

kje

oh trif... i am so embarrassed... and had the 6 already too!

4:56 pm

lil*monkey

{{{{{torgie}}}}}}

4:57 pm

kje

ugh

4:57 pm

lil*monkey

yes, tyger it is easily managed with diligence and the right attitude

4:57 pm

tygerbryght

monk, that ain't possible. I can't do that much cooking. can't stand that long - been that way for years, thx to chronic pain

4:57 pm

torgone

{{{{{monkey}}}}}

4:57 pm

tygerbryght

I eat a fair amount of Lean Cuisine & Smart Ones. they're about the lowest

4:57 pm

Trifioso

oops, gotta poof. secondo needs me to type a paper for her.... back later hopefully!

4:57 pm

lil*monkey

tyger, frozen veggies are OK, but not froz pizza or Lean Cuisine-types of meals

4:57 pm

kje

bye trif

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

but I started cutting back on salt 35 years ago. there are very few days when I have as much as 2,000 mg

4:58 pm

Trifioso

*poof*

4:58 pm

lil*monkey

whatever happened to the idea that children did their OWN homework???

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

monk, there's no helping it; sorry

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

later, trif

4:58 pm

kje

heart smart would be OK... but the diet ones like lean cuisine and healthy choice can still be quite high in salt

4:58 pm

lil*monkey

tyger, what is the recommended daily intake of sodium???? i have no idea

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

I rarely eat pizza

4:59 pm

tygerbryght

I do watch the total salt content on the boxes, peeps. been doing that for a loooong time

4:59 pm

kje

goal salt is under 1500 for you tyger... and now i will stop, as you didn't ask my advice - LOL

4:59 pm

kje

and i know it is annoing as hell to have everyone telling you what to do

4:59 pm

tygerbryght

recommended daily intake is 2,000 mg (2 g)

4:59 pm

tygerbryght

lots closer to that than you think, kje :)

4:59 pm

kje

for CHF patients...1500mg

5:00 pm

kje

for me... 2000mg

5:00 pm

lil*monkey

tyger , the worse offenders are : canned soup, frozen pizza, frozen chinese entrees, frozen "snack " foods like egg rolls

5:00 pm

tygerbryght

thx, kje. I was starting to get tired of it :)

5:00 pm

tygerbryght

I don't eat frozen snack foods. can we change the subject??

5:00 pm

lil*monkey

sorry, i will back off

5:00 pm

kje

just cuz we care tyger... but i agree - this should be your refuge... i will not do that again. please forgive me

5:01 pm

lil*monkey

me too

5:01 pm

tygerbryght

my daily food intake averages 1200 calories

5:01 pm

6:28 pm

Dorens

hi jilli..... red, does being stressed make it better? is there anything y ou can do about it? if not, try to relax

6:28 pm

phaeton

I wasn't lurking...I was eating dinner!

6:29 pm

Uneaixoise

no i don't . . . have been able to do some research on Ancestry.com re my maternal grands and great grands but not on my dad's side

6:29 pm

redturtlehead

It doesnt make it better, but its very hard to relax, things are at a sort of nutty point right now.

6:29 pm

jillibus

all I know about my maternal g-grandmother is that she went from Ireland to England and then Australia -- "from impoverished gentry"

6:29 pm

Dorens

i wish I'd asked my grandfather more when he was alive. no one left now to answer the questions

6:30 pm

redturtlehead

We have a similar issue, My Grandmother was adopted....

6:30 pm

Uneaixoise

dorens, I would recommend to everyone to find out everything you can while folks "in the know" are still around . . .

6:30 pm

Uneaixoise

oh, that must be frustrating, red

6:31 pm

Dorens

shouldn't the plural of taurus be tauri?

6:31 pm

jillibus

that's why I've been putting things into Geni.com

6:31 pm

Dorens

ah, but then again taurus isn't acceptable to enable anyway

6:31 pm

redturtlehead

Well, Since both her and my Grandfather died, I discovered some very interesting things. my Grandfather apparently spent a lot of cash trying to locate her real father...

6:31 pm

jillibus

dorens, I thought so too

6:31 pm

Uneaixoise

yes . . . i'm the self-assigned keeper of the info and the pix! :-)

6:32 pm

Uneaixoise

how interesting, red . . .

6:32 pm

redturtlehead

but we do have a ton of their photos...and My Mom does most of the putting them on disks...

6:32 pm

Uneaixoise

that's terrific!

6:32 pm

redturtlehead

And apparently my Grandmother was once taken by her real mother from the adoptive home...

6:33 pm

Uneaixoise

really? wow . . .

6:33 pm

jillibus

oh, the secrets we unearth!

6:33 pm

redturtlehead

I wish I had been able to know this and ask her questions when she didnt have alzeheimers, but she never brought it up and who would ask, hey...were you ever kidnapped?

6:33 pm

redturtlehead

My life has not been near as exciting.

6:33 pm

6:45 pm

JBV

6:45 pm

Krista

6:45 pm

redturtlehead

6:46 pm

redturtlehead

Dorens son is a smartie pants.

6:46 pm

Dorens

he's 34.... looking young runs in our family (that's one of the good things, won't mention the bad!!) thanks jbv

6:46 pm

Dorens

he got that from his father (but maybe his writing abillity is partially attributable to moi)

6:48 pm

zoozzoom

ok what is this thing called `lickety`??

6:49 pm

Krista

Ah, just say all the good stuff comes from you. That's what I do.

6:49 pm

Dorens

6:49 pm

Jadeomoan

may I have a clue on one of the fe 6's, please?

6:49 pm

7:05 pm

Dorens

lol red... i do need the encouragement -- hard to get started, but once i do it is a good thing, and I am determined to give it at least 20 minutes every day in addition to my regular exercise routine... something has to help take off a few pounds

7:06 pm

pam

excellent, doresn!!!

7:06 pm

Krista

good for you, Dorens..night

7:06 pm

7:08 pm

Krista

thought the doc wanted you to excercise less and eat more..sounds like u are just following orders, Red

7:08 pm

Dorens

it's good to be the bad guy DR... in my school there are so many kids with big problems whose moms refuse to be the bad guy... parenting isn't always being the good guy. and now good night.
*poof*

7:09 pm

rururocks

HI redster

7:10 pm

7:11 pm

redturtlehead

Ruru I love that photo...

7:11 pm

Krista

those dogs are just too cute, ruru..are there any others>

7:11 pm

JBV

if it's not too personal what is your goal? I mean what types of food are you eating/avoiding?

7:11 pm

redturtlehead

It will make choices very easy as I have none, but it means I have been unsuccessful, so its a bit depressing.

7:11 pm

Krista

gmta red

7:12 pm

redturtlehead

JBV, the goal is for me to eat 1500 calories a day...balanced meals, which seems easy to do, but lately I have been failing ...

7:14 pm

JBV

oh, but I mean is this for some type of training regimen? you don't have to answer, red, just tell me i'm too nosy

7:14 pm

redturtlehead

No no, like many runners I have some eating problems.

7:14 pm

8:01 pm

Trifioso

Aussie, hand to God - I just asked the warrior queens what advice I should give you, and tertiare, age 9, said "tell her to say 'You NEED food, light and water!'" I think maybe she does hear me...!

8:01 pm

lbdawger

ahh, she's just starting young, aussie

8:02 pm

Aussieme

I think she is 2 going on 20 !

8:02 pm

lbdawger

Trif, that's scary! a kid who is listening! YIKES

8:02 pm

Aussieme

Oh Trif !! I love it !!

8:03 pm

Aussieme

quick, send out a memo, Trif has a kid that listens !!

8:03 pm

Aussieme

**everyone will want one !**

8:03 pm

lbdawger

brb, need some tea

8:03 pm

Trifioso

okay, now my real advice: two is not too young to start working on the concept of "want" vs. "need" - ask her questions back - georgia, why do you think you need it? If we don't buy it, will anything really happen to you? Will you still be able to eat dinner? Will you be able to sleep tonight? Will it help you live your life, etc."

8:03 pm

Aussieme

I'll have one Dawg, then off to bed with me !

8:04 pm

Trifioso

And TRUST me - they listen. Especially when you don't want them too. For decades you will have to say "say thank you, say thank you...." but believe you me - drop a ham on your foot on the hard kitchen floor and say the F word, and they will remember it for the next TWENTY YEARS. And will remind you.

8:04 pm

Aussieme

I have my answer all worked out Trif..... I usually say, but Georgia, you already have so many things, why do you need that too ?? She usually answers.... OK Mommy....

8:05 pm

Aussieme

I don't have to tell her to say please or thank you, she does that automatically......

8:05 pm

Trifioso

well, then, okay. But trust me, don't drop a ham.

8:06 pm

Aussieme

Dont worry Trif, I'm not about to do that in a hurry !

8:06 pm

Trifioso

okay, speaking of cherubs, better get mine off to bed. See you in a few

8:06 pm

8:39 pm

lbdawger

that would be a very crowded bed!

8:39 pm

nrkii

and weird

8:39 pm

jillibus

Not really. A silly class thing -- her mother's side was upper-crust and apparently didn't treat her kindly (according to her) when she was sent to stay with them. Her dad was a very handsome guy but very lower-class (excuse the un-PC). She connects me (and late hubby) with her mother's side and thinks everything I say is a criticism, which it isn't. She is a wonderful, talented, highly intelligent MA in Theatre and the family breadwinner. What can I say?

8:39 pm

lbdawger

saving fish from drowning was really different

don't worry lb it is KING sized

Late g'night to lbd...

8:55 pm

jillibus

It's my fault. She teaches English, Canadian variety. The other day she said "I'm waiting on...(whatever)" and I was most interested that she had used an Americanism and said so, but she froze and turned her back. I laughed and said "That's an observation, not a criticism", but silence reigned. My fault. I had to learn the differences between British, American and Canadian English when I was a teenager and can't help noticing them. She also sneers at our pronunciation of words like "forest", which my family (and my Canadian hubby's and the Oxford Dictionary) has two distinct syllables -- fo (short o)- rest but in Webster and American pronunciation is "for-est" and often slurs together so that it sounds like "forced". Mea culpa.

8:56 pm
