Rlee

1:19 am

mrpresident

Unfortunately, it isn't the first time... those people need to be psych tested time and time again

1:19 am

jillibus

beyond me how people can deliberately set fires

1:19 am

mrpresident

jilli, I sit on the fence with you about re words

1:20 am

mrpresident

I understand the mesmerising notion of the flame, but the damage... you must know what damage you are going to be causing to others... that is what creeps me out!!
It is deliberate and murderous.

1:20 am

westford

westford

oh, gads, the mom of those octuplets is going to be on TV this morning, defending her choices. it starts...the publicity, the sponsorships, etc. Can the Enquirer be far behind?

7:07 am

Angelsong

fireworks for me...

7:08 am

crosshair

my wife loves that show 'jon and kate plus 8" personally o dont think a family should have all that glitz and glamour and cash just for pumping the lady full of fertillity drugs so she can have a litter:/

7:08 am

Trifioso

yay angel!

7:08 am

Trifioso

i am with you, crossy. gross

7:08 am

herinfernallady

Can someone just take the kids of her. What she did was wrong.

7:09 am

jorjahgal

I like the show too, but it really grates on my nerves how she talks to john

7:09 am

Trifioso

she is on now, saying she is "providing herself for her children"

7:09 am

herinfernallady

Scratch that coment please

7:09 am

crosshair

and that show 18 and counting?? what is thier issue? ever hear of birth control?

7:10 am

Trifioso

and now they have a pysch saying that the woman is obsessed.

7:10 am

jorjahgal

I think her own mother said that

7:10 am

crosshair

you think after 9 kids or so she would sleep with a knife to keep him out of the bed

7:11 am

Trifioso

the lady with 18 kids did use birth control when she was first married, and then she had a miscarriage and felt it was a message from god, telling them they needed to appreciate all babies, so they just kept having them

7:11 am

LadyNatts

good morning everyone... catching a bit of the chog, and I have to agree...

7:11 am

LadyNatts

having said that, my grandmother had 18 children...

7:11 am

jorjahgal

on the 18 kids tho' I do envy there sticktoitness on family values

7:11 am

jorjahgal

their

7:11 am

Trifioso

I don't know how they are finding the time to MAKE all those babies!

7:11 am

crosshair

oh god..there are so many children in need and she uses resouces like they are thier own small town

7:12 am

herinfernallady

(there was an old woman that lived in a shoe, she had so many children her uterus dropped out, plop)

7:12 am

jorjahgal

rofl!

7:12 am

crosshair

jon and kates weekly grocery bill is a bout 1700 u.s dollars so you can at least double that for the duggers

7:12 am

Trifioso

hang on, now the psych lady is bothering me. she is saying that with 14 kids, they will suffer neglect. I don't think that is a fair jump to make. many people have big families, and they know they are loved

7:13 am

jorjahgal

I don't know how they afford to eat all organic, family of 5 and no way could I afford it

7:14 am

Trifioso

they are saying the hospital bill for the octs will be around a million and a half dollars, when all is said and done. Hope the taxpayers in california don't mind footing that bill!

7:14 am

tceicher

re

7:14 am

crosshair

organic?? omg that is so expensive here..we just eat what looks green and clean

7:14 am

redturtlehead

I would have to say Trif, with 14 kids there will be some issues with giving the kids enough attention.

7:14 am

redturtlehead

I am SURE the hospital will end up with that bill.

7:14 am

jorjahgal

same here

7:14 am

Trifioso

I have three kids, if you asked THEM they will tell you all about how neglected they are.....

7:15 am

jorjahgal

lol trif, we must live in the same house

7:15 am

redturtlehead

Exactly Trif. And at least with the Duggars the kids are spaced and lots of the older children take part in a parenting role for the younger ones.

7:15 am

KristineNas

7:15 am

we have one son..and why do we have only a single child? cause 2 just like him would of been terrible;)

7:16 am

crosshair

lol trif re: babble and child neglect..did you know you can make a full brekkies for said child and a nutritious lunch in under 2 minutes?

7:16 am

Trifioso

I agree about the duggars, red, but I don't love that either - kids should be kids, not parents.

7:17 am

tceicher

un

7:17 am

crosshair

that way you dont even have to stop thinking bout babble words;)

7:17 am

Trifioso

Yes, I am WAY aware of that crossy. Tertiare is a conscientious breakfast objector, so not really an issue here

7:17 am

redturtlehead

I agree with that too Trif, kids should be kids, but I think its better than this nutty lady with the octuplets and no financial plan.

7:17 am

Trifioso

oh, def Red. 18 kids is not my idea of a fun time.

7:18 am

tceicher

un

7:18 am

Trifioso

but I do admire how the duggars make it work. That woman is a goddess of organization

7:18 am

crosshair

ahh crap...another foot of snow;(

7:18 am

jorjahgal

this may already be known but I don't know, so how did she get the implants? who in their right mind woulda allowed that

7:19 am

redturtlehead

I have to say Mrs Duggars voice to me is so sickly sweet she grates on my nerves.

7:19 am

Trifioso

that is a big, big question, jor. the doctor who did the implants broke the law in Cali by implanting too many eggs

7:19 am

LoriP

Anyone know if 3 uv's is right?

7:19 am

redturtlehead

jorjah, they usually iomplants a lot of embryos because some usually die...in octo ladies case, none died.

7:20 am

tceicher

va

7:20 am

Trifioso

but the law in Cali say that women under 35 should only have 2 or 3 max

7:20 am

jorjahgal

I thought you had to go through counseling and screening.... who would do that with a woman with 6 kids and living in a 3 bedroom house with her parents and unmarried???

7:20 am

Trifioso

and even women over 40 should only have 4 at max

7:20 am

crosshair

crossy gets down on his knees and thanks the lord that we are done with babies:)

7:21 am

herinfernallady

Octopus

7:21 am

redturtlehead

Wierdly on the today show this lady says all her kids were through implants.

7:21 am

Trifioso

you do, jor, you do. that is another issue. really, it borders on malpractice

7:21 am

LoriP

***if the octuplets were Babbling and had 3 uv's, would that be correct?***

7:23 am

redturtlehead

I think it was malpractice. And I imagine if we follow this story she is going to end up with either using the kids for endorseents, or with Child Protective svcs involved.

7:23 am

Trifioso

lorip, I am not ignoring you! I just haven't gone to lickety yet, so I don't know

7:24 am

redturtlehead

i dunno lorip...I have 99 words.

7:24 am

jorjahgal

I think IF you don't have to have any assistance from the gov.... NONE..... then have as many as you want, but we are struggling to put 3 thru college and then you have an idiot that has that many and can't afford them..... adopt them out... brangelina is always looking to add more to their brood

7:24 am

lol I'm very sensitive you know. Guess I shoulda' added the :D

ahh matty we were talking bout the families that breed kids like animals and have litters ie: jon and kate plus 8

7:33 am

LoriP

matty, the free money, fame and sponsorship of large families via TV seems to be the gist of it.

7:33 am

jorjahgal

have ya'll seen the new house that kate and john bought?

7:33 am

o-o

rather a vicious commentary

7:34 am

herinfernallady

I am calling her Octopus lady

7:34 am

LoriP

Vicious, but arguably accurate.

7:34 am

Trifioso

Octo-pud seems more appropriate

7:35 am

mattygroves

aah - I'm a guessing this is primarly about the octuplets?

7:35 am

but then we got tired of that and started talking bout nice frittes recipies;) which is a much better topic as it makes crossy happy

7:36 am

the duggers are strange but they did it natural

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

now HERE is a cheering news story - someone has released a photo of a police car filled with strippers and a cop - apparently the cops hired the strippers for an officer's retirement party, and then drove them in a cop car to a strip bar for them to perform for the officers.

10:16 am

Haz, so glad to see you and the Spangle!

10:17 am

Takuma Sato

heh, funny: you can't be a little bit pregnant, but you can be very pregnant

10:17 am

I'll have to confess that the dog in the picture isn't actually Spangle, just a nice photo I found. But they're bound to be related, bound to be.

10:24 am

The KoG is past five months now and needs a good spay..there is drama in how she will get it, but I trust it will work out. Don't tell her though...she will be away from me to get it, and she does NOT like to be away from me.

I'm not sure - let me ring the surgery to find out.

10:27 am

Where I am it is 230 + 150 bucks worth of appointments first. At Lori's it is 110. Obviously, Emma is going to visit Lori.

10:32 am

ardilla

su8 your last name is your ***name + ce5 and desist

10:32 am

Haz1558

You've seen those robotic machines that mimic movement? I'm sure he could rig up something along those lines.

10:32 am

Uniquity

It isn't a cost thing, per se. It is standard procedure here that cats must have appts before and after, and also be in perfect health and have all vaccinations before they get neutered. This makes sense, but I got Emma out of a barn. She may be sick. If she is, they will not spay her, and will argue I should put her down. I won't. Emma is my baby and I just want her to be happy while she is alive, and spaying is part of that. It sucks :(

10:34 am

Uniquity

I don't want to put her through unnecessarily irritating (for all of us) heats, I just want her spayed, darnit!

10:34 am

Haz1558

That would be an unusual approach here. You can't insist on people having vaccinations done and if she's otherwise healthy I can't understand why they wouldn't operate.

10:34 am

Atalante

wow

10:35 am

Atalante

or just treat her and do the spay too

10:35 am

Uniquity

I would have to pay over a hundred dollars before I even found out if they would operate + any treatment costs if she IS sick..It is 200 bucks in appts and vaccinations if she is healthy before they will spay. And it has to be done 4 weeks apart, so she would go in heat first, which would also raise the price.

10:35 am

ardilla

hint for se6/18 pls?

10:36 am

Atalante

that is ridiculous!

10:36 am

ardilla

oh my uni *hugs for you and emma

10:37 am

ardilla

0...and we have fireworks!

10:38 am

Haz1558

I'm not sure if it's the same with cats as with dogs, but with bitches they normally advise that she have one heat - something to do with oestrogen levels and incontinence later.

10:38 am

ardilla

any hints needed?

10:38 am

Uniquity

Congratulations Ardilla!!

10:38 am

Haz1558

Congratulations ardilla!

10:38 am

Doesn't the Canadian Humane Society have reduced price spaying. I know Humane Socities spay feral cats

10:38 am

Uniquity

Only 141 Ard :)

10:39 am

ardilla

whew, that makes 4 in a row, i think

10:40 am

Uniquity

There may be associations through which I can get a reduced price, but I have been told repeatedly that in my area all of the pre-spay stuff is mandatory. (appts, vaccinations, etc). We just need to get her to Loris and back, and all will be well. Hopefully.

10:41 am

harpjane

se7? either one?

10:41 am

ardilla

i'll keep you two in my prayers *hugs

10:41 am

It sounds like the best solution, Uni.

bichon

se 7/32 Is relating to touch, smell, hear

10:41 am

ardilla

se7/32 dealing with your se5s

10:41 am

Haz1558

One se7 is a plural, the other relates to se5/10 and is descriptive.

10:41 am

Such drama! Makes me glad that no-one tried to get me spayed :)

10:42 am

Haz1558

Bye ardilla.

10:48 am

Atalante

how far are you from Lori, Uni?

10:50 am

Uniquity

Just a few hours by vehicle, but pets aren't allowed on the bus system and there is a lack of people travelling (that we know). No worries, we have backup plans...and if she does go into heat first, it won't hurt either of us.

10:51 am

Haz1558

Don't forget to ask your British Babble friends for ideas. We're awfully good at thinking outside the box.

10:51 am

Atalante

nope, you'll just get hoooooooowling for a few nights :P

10:52 am

Uniquity

Ugh. She can't even meow, maybe she can't howl!

10:53 am

Uniquity

It's the butt rubbing and attraction to males thing that I don't like...a few years ago the bf's family had an un-neutered cat..she spent five days rubbing her parts on the guys in the house. Ew!

10:53 am

Atalante

lol. I thought that wiht Sily. She had this tiny little *mew*, then she went into heat (2 days before she was meant to be spayed) and she hoooooooowled

10:53 am

Haz1558

How can a Kitten of Glory deserve the title if she can't meow?

11:52 am

crosshair

11:52 am

Haz1558

It's not her, but it's really like what she was as a puppy. And they're bound to be related, aren't they?

11:53 am

Atalante

bound to be

11:53 am

Scarlet

But of course, Haz!

11:53 am

LoriP

Just hanging on her leg so she doesn't disappear again. Discreet surveillance is my middle name. :)

12:08 pm

Mom

I doubt MR. Haz would say anything.

12:09 pm

Haz1558

I doubt it, Scarlet. He likes food. Such a nuisance.

12:09 pm

LoriP

Does Mr Haz not have the phone # of a local take out place? :)

12:09 pm

carleekat

12:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

*hangs on doorjamb* mr p oto whom do you speak? *looks over shoulder to see if coast is clear*

12:34 pm

Haz1558

I don't know who Gasp is but it sounds to me like asthma might be a problem.

12:34 pm

Haz1558

We really do need to work on Dr-G to give us a sarcasm font. Not that I'd ever need it.

12:35 pm

Scarlet

It is the involuntary reaction to the sass-factor coming from the nearly-30 year old woman who is brassy, flashy and smashy....

12:35 pm

LoriP

I'd never use sarcasm. Ever.

12:35 pm

mrpresident

eva, I need help with a 'sorry' idea for online chat

12:35 pm

Haz1558

Brassy Flashy and Smashy sound like a new Girl Band.

12:35 pm

Scarlet

I know that Lori...you are the mistress of understatement...

12:36 pm

Scarlet

Then add "spice" to the end of each new name...

12:36 pm

EvaNadine

MrP -- a cute word? or an emoticon?

12:36 pm

Haz1558

You'd bring back too many bad memories if you did that, Scarlet.

Have you got much on today MRP?

12:56 pm

lynxxx

in5 in***iably you will get the word

12:56 pm

MonkeyGames

He has been rather tired all week, I think because of a slight cold. This morning he suddenly said he is still very sad that the cat died (we had to have her put down two weeks ago). Then today was the day at school when the kids all did a sponsor run for a school in Malawi, and Walter ran 11 laps-- so 1320 meters! A lot for such a small boy. THEN at noon he went for a pre-arraged playdate with his friend, which they haven't done before, and during the course of this playdate he told his friend that the cat died, and his friend told him his father died! Almost a year ago but still very prominant in the hcild's mind of course. Then he got his fingers piched in a door (no lasting damage). So by the time Walter got back here at 3:30 he was Absolutely Fried, and working through a lot. I'm glad it's Friday and I can just let him sleep in the morning.

12:57 pm

Ouwachita

thanks lynx...got that one

12:57 pm

KatieMcG

12:59 pm

MonkeyGames

Yup, poor kid. But he had a very big dinner and I let him have some cookies after and then we all played a card game he likes before bed. He's sound asleep now.

mrpresident

mrpresident

carlee... how you coping babe?? all ok??

1:57 pm

movieman

Well, mrp, I just have this ability to take in lots on info pretty quickly.....for example, when I was at junior school, whenever the teacher set a spelling test, I wouldn't even have to learn the words to get full marks

1:59 pm

ch1212

movieman

2:01 pm

mrpresident

I get him magazines... he reads them cover to cover... amazes me! I have to be careful what he sees (as he is only 9) but he is very very smart and wants to know heaps more about film.

2:02 pm

mrpresident

Total Film! will get that on subscription too

2:03 pm

movieman

I enjoy reading the movie reviews.....in fact they usually enable me to make up my mind about whether to go and see a certain film or not

2:03 pm

movieman

That's also why I have imdb.com as my homepage

2:03 pm

mrpresident

ch1212, movieman is hot to trot! we totally appreciate his talents and wisdom.

2:04 pm

ch1212

movieman I'm sure you know about rottentomatoes.com, where they compile hundreds of movie reviews. I'm betting you contribute?

2:04 pm

movieman

not usually ch, but i may start to

2:05 pm

mrpresident

oh too funny movieman! Luke asked to have that as his homepage.... but also wanted about 7 other homepages!!
he is hopelessly devoted to film, Nintendo DS, xbox and pokemon

2:06 pm

movieman

I have a DS, but I only have the New Super Mario Brothers game so far

2:07 pm

mrpresident

movieman, do you have an xbox360?

2:07 pm

movieman

Mind you, video games aren't really my forte

2:07 pm

movieman

No, but I do have a wii

2:07 pm

magazinemom

mrp- sounds like my almost 9 year old...at book fair yesterday all he wanted were pokemon or nintendo cheat code books...mean mommy made him buy some actual reading material too :-)

2:08 pm

mrpresident

wii! oh he is jealous!

2:08 pm

Atalante

I loooove my Wii

2:08 pm

mrpresident

he has gone to play xbox... lol! you have made his morning movieman!

2:08 pm

mrpresident

2:09 pm

magazinemom

I gave myself wii tennis elbow last Christmas :-)

2:09 pm

movieman

Mind you, it can get a tad embarassing when I say I'm gonna play with my wii.......

2:09 pm

phaeton

can I have a hint for the TE nine?

2:09 pm

movieman

*chortle*

2:10 pm

movieman

glad to hear it mrp

2:10 pm

magazinemom

you could if I had one phae...sorry

2:11 pm

mrpresident

indeed magmom! he wants to get every bloody level in pokemon, so he can 'destroy' everyone..... (he is rather omnipetant)

2:11 pm

phaeton

ok maga

2:11 pm

mrpresident

LOL movie!!!

2:11 pm

redturtlehead

OI have no wii, I have never even actually seen one. I feel so out of date!

2:11 pm

magazinemom

mrp he would get along fabulously with my boy

2:12 pm

LuvWordGames

te 9 is the te 8 with another cons. added in the middle of the word

2:12 pm

mrpresident

movieman, if you get xbox360, Luke wants to play castle crash with you

2:12 pm

magazinemom

I have to lay down the law about the Nintendo or he is going to end up having to have it surgically removed form his hands

2:12 pm

ch1212

mrp and other parents of the 8-10 year old boys -- I noticed the remark about 'destroy' -- is that pretty common at that age?

2:12 pm

phaeton

that would help Luv if I had the TE8...:~)

2:13 pm

magazinemom

I think so ch... I hear it from my friends with boys that age

2:13 pm

magazinemom

the te8 I have means the very smallest

2:13 pm

mrpresident

It is 7.15am, and the smell of the fires is deeply disturbing!! This will be the rest o f us

2:14 pm

ch1212

okay. Just wondering. We have a darling 8 year old neighbor boy who has adopted us as grandparents, and he talks about destroying stuff a lot --- on his video games, his plastic armymen, etc. We only had a daughter, so this is new.

2:14 pm

joshuavorbis

that's the one, magmom - throw a consonant in the middle and you have the 9

2:14 pm

evanonut

i love the smell of fire...in my fireplace

2:15 pm

magazinemom

phae- did that help? I got the te 9

2:15 pm

mrpresident

ch1212... totally normal

2:15 pm

evanonut

prezzie sweetusm!!

2:15 pm

mrpresident

hi nuttie!!! (((((hugs)))))

2:15 pm

phaeton

Yes, thank you Luv...got both

2:16 pm

ch1212

good to hear. His home life is pretty negative, so I wondered. We enrolled him in horse riding lessons because he loves horses.

2:16 pm

magazinemom

ch- I remember that from the boys growing up n my neighborhood...they liked to play fort, and war...nowadays I think it has just morphed into the video games and such

2:16 pm

ch1212

I thought it might help his "agression" but maybe it's just a normal 8 year old thing.

2:17 pm

magazinemom

well it certanly can't hurt... we keep our son involved in sports like basketball and soccer where he can run off that extra energy

2:18 pm

ch1212

Gosh, I appreciate this. I've worked with adolescent boys professionally, but they were all court-involved. So I'm kind of skewed in my perception of what's okay.

2:18 pm

mrpresident

afraid so ch1212... boys are an enigma... let them have their 'stuff' and then more!!

2:19 pm

ch1212

LOL. Thanks all. I will access your collective wisdom in the future if needed :)

2:19 pm

mrpresident

Luke loves his DS, Xbox and his mates around to play all the above

2:19 pm

magazinemom

my son has ADD (no hyperactivity), so I've learned a lot recently about what to expect from little guys his age

2:20 pm

mrpresident

however, we are careful of 'how' he conducts himself. He is fair and reasonable.... with alot of effort! :)

2:20 pm

Atalante

when my step-brother was 8, he had a collection of combine harvester toys *sigh*

2:20 pm

ch1212

mag, "our" boy is in counseling due to his home life, and in special classes at school. We do enforce good conduct rules when he visits, and he seems to love the consistent rules (and hugs).

2:20 pm

magazinemom

definitely mrp. Zac and his best bud Curtis spend alot of time playing video games...but you're right sometimes they get a little too *wrapped up * in it and we have to have some breathing time

2:20 pm

mrpresident

If he 'loses it' he has to take time out to think about his loses

2:21 pm

mrpresident

consistency is the key!!! a darling big bright sparkling key!!

2:21 pm

Atalante

3:36 pm

redturtlehead

Ata, I know you are being sarcastic.

3:36 pm

lilliann

3:36 pm

Aussieme

I am loving it Lilliann !! I can't wait for my next lesson !!

3:36 pm

3:37 pm

lilliann

i failed my 1st test, reversing around corners, i wa really crap!!..lol

3:37 pm

redturtlehead

Did she actually say she was lonely?

3:37 pm

3:38 pm

lilliann

well, i hope my daughter doesn't say that when she grows older ata, and she better not have 14 bairns, as i'm not babysitting!!

3:38 pm

redturtlehead

I just got nervous....

3:38 pm

Atalante

the first time husband took his test, he was using a friend's car. He said to the test guy "um, the speedo doesn't work, is that a problem?". He was failed on the point lol

3:38 pm

3:39 pm

Atalante

3:40 pm

EvaNadine

doing my nails since im hanging out late at work

3:40 pm

phaeton

How many UR words?

3:41 pm

Atalante

I did my test in Canterbury about 2 1/2 years ago. It's a nightmare because the test centre drive opens straight out into a 4 lane main road with a complicated junction about 100m down the road

3:41 pm

lilliann

all the reversing on the tests was taken outside our home so they were waiting!!

3:41 pm

Aussieme

You know what Lilliann..... My Hubby put the L plates on the car today, and let me drive part of the way home, and I was terrible, I couldn't drive with him sitting next to me !!

3:41 pm

lilliann

3:41 pm

OMG Ata, I would freak out !!

3:41 pm

Atalante

3:42 pm

periwinkle

still 111 left, bbs

3:42 pm

lilliann

yw phae

3:42 pm

Atalante

it's *awful*. but it's well known that the hardest part of any canterbury test is getting in and out of the test centre! the rest is a breeze compared to that!

3:42 pm

Aussieme

Later Peri !

3:42 pm

Aussieme

ROFL !!

3:42 pm

lilliann

i think its because he is a professional driver and sometimes says things, but atleast i feel safer when i drive

3:43 pm

Scrabbler

What is "speedo"?

3:43 pm

EvaNadine

i must say, i really keep trying to see "penis" in the grid today...

3:43 pm

lilliann

after driving a lorry he's like michael shumacker (i know i've spelt that wrong)..lol

3:43 pm

Atalante

I hate driving with husband too. it's just urf

3:43 pm

lilliann

speedometer scrabs

3:43 pm

Atalante

there's a surprise, eva!

3:44 pm

EvaNadine

*looks innocent*
what??

3:44 pm

redturtlehead

I sure do wish someone would come over here and cook dinner for me.

3:44 pm

lilliann

where is the test centre in canterbury ata?

3:44 pm

fuquayvarina

singular's not in there, but the plural is, eva

3:45 pm

lilliann

i could send some stew over red, hubby made it, it's lovely and has dumplings

3:45 pm

Atalante

on new dover road

3:45 pm

EvaNadine

well. whoda thunk it!

3:45 pm

redturtlehead

Ooooh nice.

3:47 pm

lilliann

oh aye, i know where it is now

3:47 pm

lilliann

hi fuquay

3:47 pm

Atalante

right by the huge set of traffic lights near whitefriars

3:47 pm

redturtlehead

I have a piece of salmon. I need to bake it.

3:47 pm

lilliann

it's not as nice as mine tho red!! the dumplings werent cooked enough and they went splatt, for some reason!!..lol

3:47 pm

Aussieme

Ok, before I go batty, ru5 please ?

3:47 pm

redturtlehead

and some okra.

3:48 pm

Atalante

it's an absolute bastard place for a test centre!

3:48 pm

lilliann

that's probably why they put it there, so they could fail people before they even started

3:48 pm

phaeton

ru5..out in the country

3:48 pm

Aussieme

Oh for goodness sakes, throw me a whale !!

3:49 pm

redturtlehead

I think the dumplings would be the best...

3:49 pm

Atalante

a lot of people fail just as they are turning back into the test centre at the end of the test - there's a pavement in front of the test centre and ppl just blaze straight over it without looking for pedestrians

3:49 pm

lilliann

my mam worked for a drivers association and you could do the best test ever but if they have passed their quota for the year then they have to fail you on somehting

3:49 pm

phaeton

5 un's; 6 ur's; 3 uv's...what U am I missing

3:49 pm

lilliann

it happened to me on my 2nd as it couldn't have gone any better

3:49 pm

Atalante

3:50 pm

phaeton

3:50 pm

Aussieme

Nah..... I will weather the driving !!

3:50 pm

phaeton

*two

3:50 pm

Atalante

darn. ok. *thinks*

3:50 pm

Scrabbler

You will practice enough to be confident, Aussie!

3:50 pm

Atalante

I know someone who passed her test without actually taking her test

3:51 pm

lilliann

how did she do that?

3:51 pm

Aussieme

Ok.... run hat one by me Ata !

3:51 pm

Atalante

the test guy had a heart attack half way through the test, and she drove him to hospital and looked after him till they got to A&E

3:51 pm

Aussieme

*run THAT one by me !

3:51 pm

Atalante

they passed her

3:51 pm

Aussieme

I know Scrabbs !!

3:51 pm

Aussieme

WOW Ata, thats cool !

3:52 pm

Atalante

3:52 pm

lilliann

you'll know if you pass it auss, as they always ask motorway questions if you have paseed, well, they did when i took mine

3:52 pm

Aussieme

Not for the test examiner, but cool that she did so well under that pressure !

3:52 pm

Atalante

yes, they couldn't not pass her after that!

3:52 pm

Atalante

I didn't get any motorway questions

3:52 pm

Scrabbler

What a story, Ata!

3:53 pm

lilliann

well good that she got him to the hospital, but she could have driven crap getting him there, and how would he know how well she did

3:54 pm

Atalante

I think anyone would didn't panic in that situation must at least have a good head on their shoulders

3:54 pm

Aussieme

ok, am off to bed my Babble Family..... I am so tired, I could sleep on the washing line right now.......Sweet Dreams Babble Family **poofing**

3:54 pm

Scrabbler

Bye Aussie, sleep well!

3:55 pm

8:41 pm

i'm just sitting here watching the puppies. a couple have the hiccups.

8:42 pm

*waits for all of pini's clues*

8:44 pm

stidmama

I used to help in the ESL class when I was a highschool student. One of the more rewarding things I have done.

8:44 pm

Pinikula

that's cheating, jes!! LOL

8:45 pm

JBV

This is a fantastic team of teachers - started as a 9th grade team, now in 10th, they are so creative

8:45 pm

lbdawger

jbv, that is such an excellent example of students working together for success

8:45 pm

jesdraggon

why? i'm sure i need many of the same words you do...

8:45 pm

jesdraggon

we'll start at the beginning and go down the list, shall we?

8:45 pm

Pinikula

I know, jes...just messin' with ya!

8:45 pm

stidmama

I love that it allows the older readers to work on things at their level without making them feel it is "beneath" them -- to know that they will be helping younger students even as they improve their own skills is excellent

8:46 pm

jesdraggon

i'll ask one, then you ask one, that'd be fair :)

8:46 pm

JBV

stid, that sounds like a great idea for us, too, thanks for the thought - we do not have anything like that at the moment (English speakers working in the ESL class - did you get service credit?)

8:46 pm

lbdawger

and reading aloud, it can be such a challenge especially for esl students.

8:46 pm

stidmama

I'm trying to regain my positoni at the top of the heap...not that I was ever there to begin with but I do like challenges...it'll take me longer than I anticipated, but I was out of Babbling for a bit more than a year before rejoining...there are some games I've started intending to finish and the times slips by before I could...and yes, it is just agame, and I rarely win at games, but some days, my goal is to just finish...
