we get nervous about floods and blizzards and tornados here, but I think the fires would be terrifying
1:00 am
lynxxx

Volley, they say will take at least 2 more weeks to get fires under control...as long as wind and temp remain moderate.
1:01 am
Andree

i think most people would take drowning over burning to death
1:01 am
lynxxx

several arsonists Ruru...not that all the fires were lit by arsonists. Lightening also caused a lot
1:01 am
herinfernallady

Ru. The police are still going from burnt property to another. The police are labelling it Operation Phoenix. The police have said this may take a year just to gather info.
1:01 am
VolleymomDee

how long total does that make it lynxx? was all this because of arson?
1:02 am
Andree

probably why the poor queenslanders in the middle of terible floods are not getting a lot of attention

no long words at all, really
2:18 am
o-o

how are Maddison and Luke doing with the ongoing tragedy there, MrP?
2:20 am
mrpresident

they are keenly aware that the danger hasnt passed, and we are now joining the relief volunteers over the next 7 days.
The kids will work the canteen at soccer on sunday to raise money from the club.
We are pulling together an appeal at the school, in which Maddison and her year are hosting the appeal.
Luke and Maddison don't quite get the enormity of it, but they understand the scramble for money to help these people
2:21 am
mrpresident

*the club will donate the money to the appeal*
2:21 am
joshuavorbis

i've been reading what i can about the fires in victoria - massive thing that is
2:21 am
Rlee

our boss told us today he will match in our names dollar for dollar that us girls donate, so we are pleased about that
2:22 am
Rlee

the more we can raise the better
2:22 am
mrpresident

that is positive, especially in this recession
2:25 am
mrpresident

josh, it is so so bad. The toll looks to be 300 people + dead ... so many communities haven't been reached yet.
Surprisingly, there where homes lost today, and the people who managed to get out 'didn't believe' what the other communities had experienced over 2 days ago,...until it happened to them today.... insane
2:26 am
joshuavorbis

is there any sense of firefighters having control over the flames?
2:26 am
mrpresident

not really... they can't control this fire.
2:27 am
mrpresident

it has been burning for over 4 days, and the only way to stop it is to back burn.
2:27 am
Andree

mrp just watched abc news, saw 1 couple refusing to leave preparing to fight the fire with buckets, may as well pee on it
2:27 am
joshuavorbis

terrible time of year to have a fire out of control
2:27 am
o-o

are the winds still gusting to 100 klm?
2:27 am
joshuavorbis

why would someone be that stupid? what do they think the fire does, pick its battles?
2:27 am
Andree

thats the time of year it happens josh
2:28 am
mrpresident

You have to understand one thing.... NSW is the capital of fires, so we backburn all through the 'off season' of fires...
VIC doesn't reach the temps we do, but they exceeded it this year.... first time in decades!! They hadn't done back burning... it raged out of control because of this + the terrible terrible conditions
2:29 am
Andree

we are used to bushfires, happens every summer, this loss of lives and homes is what has shocked us all
2:29 am
joshuavorbis

that's not a good omen for the people in charge
2:29 am
lynxxx

Part of the problem though is that because we have been in drought for so long, they haven';t been able to clear the litter or backburn
2:29 am
Rlee

josh the biggest tragedy, is other humans started most of these fires, knowing what could happen,unless they got caught in their own fire and perished, i do not think they will get what they deserve, even if they are caught
2:29 am
mrpresident

not at all josh, and now comes the Royal Commission to investigate who is liable
2:30 am
Andree

its not really the people in charge , a lot of it has been hard fought for to keep the greens vote
2:30 am
mrpresident

indeed lynxx... their window of opportunity was missed for backburning
2:30 am
joshuavorbis

what do the greens think of backburning?
2:31 am
Andree

its a nono
2:31 am
mrpresident

but for the residents today, to not 'believe' how bad it was for those days ago... and to have some perish today... that is sad
2:31 am
mrpresident

backburning was 'invented' by the aboriginals... we 'have' to do it in this country.... screw the greens on this issue
2:31 am
joshuavorbis

you're right, mrp - failure on any number of fronts, and failure that is surely preventable
2:32 am
joshuavorbis

what could a green party possibly have against smart burning of selected areas designed to prevent widespread destructive fire?
2:32 am
mrpresident

indeed josh... indeed
2:32 am
lynxxx

The Royal Commission is more to determine what is best to do in case of Bush Fires from what I hear. Perhaps stay and defend is not the best recommendation. The Pegausus(?) Task Force set up by Police will be determining who/what is responsible for the fires and deaths
2:33 am
mrpresident

everything is on the table with the royal commission... everything
2:33 am
Rlee

we did it in nhulunbuy every year when i was there, it was controled and stopped this type of thing
2:34 am
joshuavorbis

i have lots of friends who are involved with green parties in any number of countries. and i'd have to ask them, but i think they are intelligent enough to know the function of controlled burning in fire-prone areas. so it's confusing that a green party would take an anti- stance on that
2:36 am
mrpresident

however josh, we had high 40+ temps for over 5 days... never seen in the history of this state.
We do know we can't 'outrun' a fire... there was no warning cause it was so ferocious... people had less than 10 minutes to get out
2:36 am
mrpresident

and Victoria is a tinderbox, ready to go up.... because of no backburning
2:37 am
joshuavorbis

yeah, that is brutal weather and "extreme" circumstances, for sure
2:38 am
o-o

are there fires north of Canberra?
2:38 am
mrpresident

always babrab... always... that is NSW territory. We are always on fire.
2:40 am
o-o

so the fires stretch from Sydney to Adelaide?
2:41 am
mrpresident

if you watch the footage on infrared... the firefighting aircraft are useless... they drop the water and the water dissipates before it hits the fire.
2:42 am
mrpresident

No babrab... it was concentrated in Western Victoria across to mid/eastern victoria... then it moved north...
The ones that are in NSW are small and isolated... except for the ones started near sydney... they were arson
2:43 am
mrpresident

let's put it this way... the 'fuel load' in Victoria is more than 3 times what we have in NSW (in our forests)
2:44 am
o-o

at least major metropolitan areas are for now not in the path of the fires
2:45 am
mrpresident

prescribed burning & fuel management is the only way to avoid this disaster... that is critical
2:46 am
herinfernallady

we also now have looters its not Peagusus its Phoenix Task force (just heard about it )
2:47 am
mrpresident

indeed babrab... the last time that happened in sydney, was in 1992?? a fire started in the middle of the northern sydney suburbs and wiped out heaps of houses!! Very very 'leafy' suburbs... backburning became a major factor in avoiding this. We have backburning occuring in our suburb all the time! (We are North-West Sydney)
2:47 am
bfsog

hey all
2:47 am
mrpresident

Pheonix... that makes sense
2:47 am
Andree

i thin the phoenix is solely to find and identify the dead
2:47 am

As the Pol Comm said - not much to loot! don't think looters will last long
2:48 am

hi bfsog

BAB but an absolute butt frog load of small towns are. The kind that need tourism to survive

Back again. Slow running computer problem. OK now.

Infernal I checked your link and I think it is wonderful the way people pull together when needed. I saw a picture yesterday of a koala that survived the fire and was being fed water from a bottle by a rescuer.
4:28 am
herinfernallady

That got me that did. Koalas are not nice. They have teeth claws and pee on you and are not friendly at all. I can't imagine how desperate the little fuzz butt was. So much destruction.

OH
5:11 am

babbleburp... when you enter a word that is valid, but it doesn't go onto the list... very frustrating!
5:13 am
herinfernallady

I like it that is cute
5:13 am
mrpresident

it happens with many 4 letter words for me, especially if I am rushing along... I swear I have entered it, but it doesn't take... then later on it does!! what a phenomenon
5:14 am

its a cute word i like it
5:14 am
mrpresident

glad you like it!

5:21 am
herinfernallady

I would so love to retire. but of course I just cant at my age.

Cars are always a ha$$le.

My only car joy is that I finally paid it off in November.
6:45 am

the AAA guy who pulled me out yesterday could not have been nicer - just a great guy. love the AAA
6:46 am
NonoNanette

mine will be paid off in two months
6:46 am
redturtlehead

Trif, did you have an accident? Slippy road? Is everyone OK?
6:46 am
72 Temple Owl

red: i think all workers should be able tohave a sabbatical at around 40-45 to do whatever while they can still enjoy it. like taking some years from retirement early. then go back to work.
6:46 am
NonoNanette

pulled you out Trif? did you end up in a snowbank?
6:46 am
Trifioso

yes, red, and yes, I am fine. the only victim was a tree
6:47 am
redturtlehead

I'm glad you are fine, and well, come spring, you can plant a new tree...in honor.
6:47 am
72 Temple Owl

oooh sorry to hear that trif
6:47 am
Trifioso

and perhaps the AAA guy - I did happen to think later that the area where I went off was loaded with poison ivy vines...I know it's winter, but maybe the oil was exposed....
6:47 am
redturtlehead

TO, I think thats a Great idea. Of course for People with children....probably that sabattical would be taking care of them....but I have no kiddos, soooo.
6:47 am

the jeep was on it's side in a ditch off the side of my street. I felt like such an idiot
6:48 am

TO, jut adopt Esprit's philosophy. I remember elling her how I envied her ability to travel, and she said "I don't let my income interfere with my lifestyle". lol
6:50 am
Trifioso

well, thanks nono, but sitting there in a tipped over jeep, trying to smile, wave, and give the neighbors a thumbs up as they drive past is just so humiliating! ....sort of trying to look nonchalant and cool while the dog is taking a dump, and folks you know drive by and wave
6:50 am
LoriP

*telling even
6:50 am

i like that attitude...that is more like the one we have adopted now

I'm the only one on the crazy hats theme?
6:53 am
LoriP

My super cool Dodge minivan is 11 years old, and I should get another 4 or 5 years from it.
6:53 am
Trifioso

I would like one too, but I think our electricity comes from the plymouth nuke plant, and I am not keen to drive a car that requires more of THAT
6:54 am
crosshair

my lease is up this year on my great 2004 toyota echo:) thing is still under 40,000 k so im going to buy it out:)
6:54 am
Trifioso

seriously lori? that is good to know - I am driving a chrysler minivan of about the same age, and was not sure how much more to expect....another 4 or 5 would be good
6:54 am

Now, from a Three Mile Island Veteran, Nuclear power is safe...clean energy.

and besides trif..you dont have to plug in a toyota prius hybrid;)
6:54 am
LoriP

Yes, seriously minus the super cool part. Maintenance will keep it humming along for years.
6:55 am
Trifioso

lol red - how's this for fun? when we were kids my grandfather used to take us swimming down by the plant, as the water there was tropical and warm....he said it was from the water they used to cool the turbines...um, hope so
6:56 am
redturtlehead

I dont know that I would do that, but it is correct, thats why the water is warm.
6:56 am
LoriP

My sister's Jetta holds the family record, 17 years on the road. I won't make that one, but I'd like to come close.
6:56 am

mm come out of the water and your a glo stick....
6:56 am

I have a ton to do today and after my bad day yesterday all I really want to do is go back to bed.
6:56 am
Trifioso

did I mention my grandfather died of cancer?
6:57 am
redturtlehead

What type Trif.
6:57 am
Trifioso

started as colon, ended up everywhere.
6:57 am
redturtlehead

Probably not related to the Nucelar power plant then.
6:58 am
Trifioso

no, probably not. does make one wonder though....
6:58 am
redturtlehead

Being a glo stick could be interesting for a while. but not permanently.
6:59 am
Trifioso

what about that suzanne somers lady on oprah? going on and about how she takes 60 = SIXTY = vitamins or other supplements a day! She is gonna glow soon
7:01 am
LoriP

I think 60 is overkill, when 58 would do the same job.
7:01 am
Trifioso

ugh. the ho4 today is really offensive!
7:01 am
Trifioso

lol lori!
7:02 am
Michnick

Morning Babblers (Afternoon for some of us). I agree Trif. I am sometimes amazed at what passes for words.
7:02 am
LoriP

Gah, all these letters missing 1 word, mock me.
7:02 am
Trifioso

thanks mich. glad I am not the only one....
7:03 am

G'd morning Mich
7:03 am

Hi Lori.
7:04 am
LoriP

Doh, missed the Latin-y sleep disorder. Stoopid a.
7:04 am
merlypoop

hi milkbottle you're doing well
7:04 am
redturtlehead

Oh gosh can you believe that its now revealed that the octuplets Mom is already on Food Stamps.
7:05 am
Trifioso

wooo! thanks lori!
7:05 am
Trifioso

red, I thought I heard she was single, too - do we know if that is true?
7:05 am
LoriP

G'd morning merly
7:05 am
redturtlehead

She is single and that doesnt bother me, but the food stamps does.
7:05 am
Trifioso

I think maybe the do6 that did the implantation should be court ordered to pay for the kids
7:05 am
Michnick

Red, the more I hear about this woman, the more outraged I become. And to think there are couples just pining away for children and they cannot!
7:06 am
merlypoop

hi lori
7:06 am
redturtlehead

She is clearly insane.
7:06 am
redturtlehead

and to put children in harms way.
7:06 am
Trifioso

i am a little bothered by that status - not that she isn't married as much as that she a) has only one income, if that, and b) has no one to help with the kids
7:06 am
Michnick

Being single isn't the issue. I love when single women can choose parenthood - but 14 kids under the age of 7!!!!!?????
7:07 am
redturtlehead

she has no income she filed for bankruptcy last year....
7:07 am
Trifioso

yes, mich, i would agree with that.
7:07 am
Michnick

What income Trif? I understood she is basically being supported by her understandably reluctant parents.
7:07 am
Trifioso

NO income???? okay, what, seriously, was the do6 thinking?????
7:08 am
Trifioso

I know lots of great single moms, absolutely, but none with 14 kids, for heaven's sake
7:08 am
redturtlehead

I imagine she was not entirely honet with the MD, but he/she is already under investigation in Calif, I imagine he will lose his source of income.
7:09 am
Trifioso

I hope so. Even if the MD heard a pack of lies from her, implanting 8 embryos was a choice he/she made, and it violated all sorts of guidelines and ethics
7:09 am
Michnick

I actually know a single mom with, I think, 12 kids - but she had them all while she was married and (this is the crucial point) had them over a span of 20 or so years!
7:09 am
Trifioso

(((taking a moment to think about being a mom of 12))))
7:10 am
redturtlehead

there is just such a difference in having children over a span of time and all at once.
7:10 am
Michnick

I had 7 kids in 10 years so I know what it is to have a lot of little kids - but she has twice that number in fewer years with no support system.
7:10 am
Trifioso

yes red. humans are not designed to come in litters
7:11 am
Trifioso

wow, seven! you are much more productive than I!
7:12 am
Trifioso

just think what you saved on tampons! :)
7:12 am
redturtlehead

I think in the end those kids are going to have to be fostered out. They are going to be in NICU for at least 4-8 weeks, so plenty of time for Social workers to get it together to get them away from her.
7:12 am
redturtlehead

BUt I gotta wonder who is paying those NICU bills....
7:12 am
Trifioso

I hate to think of them being split up....
7:13 am
carleekat

Urgh..the ap 6 sleep disorder.....grrrrrrrr
7:13 am
Michnick

You are too funny Trif, actually that was never one of the factors. But all were wanted and waited for.
7:14 am
Trifioso

oh I am sure! children are a blessing, and I am absolutely sure you are a fantastic mom
7:14 am
redturtlehead

I actually am not bothered by the idea of some of the kids being raised by other sane parents.
7:14 am
Trifioso

how many boys/girls?
7:14 am
Michnick

Hmmm, well I am not always so sure. But we do our best. We have boy, 3 girls then 3 boys.
7:15 am
Trifioso

all singletons?
7:15 am
Michnick

Believe me, 3 active boys in 4 years is enough for anyone to reconsider the idea of multiples. (Joking - or maybe not?)
7:15 am
redturtlehead

Boys are exciting. and busy!
7:16 am
Michnick

Yes, all singles. the closest (2 sets) are 13 months apart and the biggest gap is 3 years.
7:17 am
Michnick

Red, actually I think the only sane way these kids can be raised is by being split up. Maybe they could have a SW work out some sort of family network so they would be raised as close as some cousins are.
7:17 am
redturtlehead

I think it would be much better. in that way Mich.
7:18 am
Trifioso

still, I do hate the idea of separating them, but you are wise to say so - so many babies!
7:19 am
Michnick

There was a couple once who had 6 kids under ten and then they conceived quads with no intervention (totally naturally). They had tons of support from the state and families. This situation is just untenable.
7:19 am
Trifioso

mich, is your family considered large in israel, or are there many families with lots of kiddos?
7:19 am
redturtlehead

I guess I dont see them really as actual twins, like some twins...
7:20 am
mattygroves

The doctors were terribly irresponsible, implanting so many embroys
7:20 am
Trifioso

some of them might be twins
7:20 am
Trifioso

agreed, matty
7:20 am
JBV

hi, have to go to work, but here's my two cents: I only have ONE (enough for me!) and I know how much work it is to raise children - she will need round-the-clock support, in shifts, it's like running a school, except 24/7!!
7:20 am
JBV

hi, have to go to work, but here's my two cents: I only have ONE (enough for me!) and I know how much work it is to raise children - she will need round-the-clock support, in shifts, it's like running a school, except 24/7!!
7:20 am
Michnick

In the Orthodox community I'd say we are considered average. But my brood is unusually close together, nursing never worked for me as birth control - be we were okay with it.
7:20 am
Trifioso

again, I think the do6 should be made to support them
7:20 am
redturtlehead

2 sets are , but the rest are seperate embryos that just lived in the same uterus.
7:21 am
redturtlehead

Personally, I have a problem with her raising children, as she seems irresponsible herself, which is why I guess if it were me I'd take all the kids from her.
7:21 am
redturtlehead

Hi jbv, how is every thing going?
7:21 am
Trifioso

I see, mich. in ireland, where my hubs is from, huge families don't even raise an eye. our friend Eilish has 110 first cousins!
7:22 am
Michnick

You know, I am an advocate for kids staying with their bio. parents in many cases, where others would want to take them away. But I cannot see this woman as being a healthy mother - the situation cannot be healthy or even safe!
7:22 am
carp

I feel sorry for her mother who has been left with 6 small children to look after - she looked worn out on tv the other night.
7:23 am
Trifioso

what a shame that it took this for the state to become alerted to the danger the 6 children were already in. What a mess
7:23 am
JBV

hi, red, thanks for asking - we see some glimmers of progress here, but hubby is still dealing with major ongoing issues - he's home, though, and will see the doctor today for a progress check - I'm hanging on
7:23 am
Michnick

Wow, Trif that's a lot of grandchildren for their grandma. I think that's beautiful!
7:23 am
redturtlehead

glad to hear that. Keep hanging in there.
7:24 am
Michnick

I agree carp, it looks like most of the burden will fall on her unless there is some intervention.
7:24 am
JBV

Trif, same here, for Puerto Rican families - my husband had 13 siblings
7:24 am
Trifioso

jbv, your profile photo is so beautiful!
7:24 am
Trifioso

bus stop shuffle - be back soon!
7:24 am
JBV

thanks, Trif, that's a beach in Puerto Rico - Luquillo
7:25 am
redturtlehead

I think Social work is going to intervene. they would if there was one child that the parent couldnt afford, so I am sure they will do it its just not time yet, since the babies arent ready to go home.
7:26 am
Michnick

Good red. As sad as the situation I hope it's resolution is to find healthy adoptive homes for thses kids.
7:26 am
JBV

last two cents before I must leave: she is waiting for her movie/book contract, I'm sure - will make millions and they'll be celebrity babies -
7:26 am
redturtlehead

I wonder though, I think we are saturated with the other two big family shows.
7:27 am
NonoNanette

those contracts may not come considering she seems so self absorbed
7:27 am
Michnick

So sad, JBV. Just one more way to ensure they will have totally messed up lives.
7:27 am
JBV

i agree, mich - good luck babbling, everyone - see you later
7:28 am
carleekat

i haven't been following the 8's
7:28 am
carleekat

will SS intervene tho?
7:28 am
mattygroves

Being self absorbed is hardly a bar to being on telly, indeed, it seems to be a prerequisite!
7:28 am
redturtlehead

I think they should, as they usually do when there is some sort of question of being able to safely care for children.
7:29 am
NonoNanette

if she can't provide for them i'm sure they will carlee
7:29 am
redturtlehead

but maybe in California is different.
7:30 am
carleekat

i just know SS's here is so messed up....my girlfriend's sis was arrested 2 days ago..she is 50 something..is mentally challenged...was not taking her meds and was calling police that her elmo's were stolen ( she has 2 talking elmos ) by her educator ( the woman from SS's that visits her every week for budgetting etc....)
7:30 am
NonoNanette

costs to raise those 14 children is astonomical ... $1.5 million over next 18 years and thats for normal healthy children
7:31 am
carleekat

and she spent 2 days in jail before her educator even KNEW she was in prison
7:32 am
redturtlehead

It seems that carlee, your gf's sister should have been taken to a Hospital not jail.
7:32 am
redturtlehead

How odd.
7:32 am

well..DUH...I hate to think what she was subjected to in prison

7:43 am

whats the issue?
7:43 am

sounds like a nice busy night;)
7:43 am
carleekat

so..I am thinking it would be fun to have a momento of the "adventure" so I was THINKINg of making them hemp bracelets. ( they are 12-15 ) and putting on a bead or charm symbolizing each activity
7:43 am
kje

ooooo - that is fun carlee - what age?

7:43 am
kje

ooooo - that is fun carlee - what age?
7:43 am
redturtlehead

and....
7:44 am
kje

have them make them!
7:45 am
carleekat

so start with a moon, then I need a bead/ charm that represents a play...bowling a little shoe ( since u HATE to rent shoes others wear ) then a stone bead for the museum ( is called stones and bones ) a coin for customs, a&P I am stumped...a "flower" bead for flour for the bakery, an apple for the market and a Heart cus " I'm lovin it" at mc donalds..then a sun to rep the end
7:45 am
Michnick

Sounds great. I have a friend who does beading with that age and they share things as they add beads that represent something (in this case each activity) it makes it more meangingful and reinforces the bonding aspect of the night. Your idea could do the same thing.
7:45 am
Michnick

Sounds great. I have a friend who does beading with that age and they share things as they add beads that represent something (in this case each activity) it makes it more meangingful and reinforces the bonding aspect of the night. Your idea could do the same thing.
7:45 am
kje

chog is acting up
7:45 am
redturtlehead

what is the play?
7:45 am
carleekat

( no..I will make..and give to them at beginning of nite to see what they can guess..the girls do not know..they THINK they ddoing a sleepover..and they blindfolded between activities..they have NO idea what they are doing )
7:46 am
Michnick

Yeh sorry my post doubled.
7:46 am
kje

mine too mich - i keep blacking out over here
7:46 am
carleekat

the play is called "zap" is a bunch of plays that get mixed up cus someone "flicking a remote" between plays and the characters get into wrong plays
7:47 am
Michnick

Oh. Maybe give them the beads, let them guess and then they can string them onto the hemp? What about adding a bead for friendship?
7:47 am
redturtlehead

oooh how about the comedy and tragedy masks for theatre....
7:47 am
redturtlehead

like...
7:47 am
carleekat

we want to seee them try and guess what they are doing and everything is so timed they won't have time to bead
7:47 am
carleekat

i have to FIND the beads...I live in a small town
7:47 am
redturtlehead

http://www.shakespearesden.com/cotrma.
html
7:48 am
carleekat

so I need the play bead..and I need the grocery store bead..what can represent them?
7:48 am
Michnick

For the play, maybe a glass or fimo bead with colors all mixed up & intertwined like the players in the different vignettes? And for A&P, how about a red bead? (Is the A&P logo still red?)
7:48 am
redturtlehead

I think you are going to have to order on line carlee.
7:48 am
redturtlehead

A and P still exists?
7:48 am
carleekat

they still exist...
7:48 am
carleekat

I like the fimo idea...cool..ok
7:48 am
carleekat

I HAVE fimo too :)
7:48 am
redturtlehead

Ok, I am off to try to motivate to actually do comething and combat myself
7:49 am

Wow, our a and P's went away years ago.
7:49 am
carleekat

eight o clock coffee still exists rth
7:49 am
carleekat

ingles carries it :)
7:49 am
Michnick

What about friendship? I have seen fimo beads that are like yin/yang, maybe that could represent the friendship the group represents.
7:50 am
carleekat

as it is I have 10 beads..I might incorporate friendship if the bracelet needs balancing....its anice idea mich...but I need a&p
7:50 am
redturtlehead

yes 8 o clock coffee is sold here, but a and p disappeared.
7:50 am
Michnick

So what does the logo look like these days?
7:51 am
carleekat

its a red non descript oval...
7:52 am
o-o

http://www.native-languages.org/beadwo
rk.htm
7:52 am
Michnick

OK, so how about a red oval?
7:52 am
Michnick

There are glass beads like that, you can probably get them pretty cheaply
7:52 am
carleekat

but will they "remember a year from now a red oval bead rep A&P?
7:53 am
kje

well... you could get a paint pen and put a tiny A&P on each
7:53 am
Michnick

They'll remember the whole night so when they look at the bracelet it won't be like, "oh what's this red oval" but it will hopefully be more like, "Oh which bead was A&P? Oh yeah, this red oval!" That is if there will still be A&P in a year.
7:53 am
carleekat

i like the swirled colour idea tho mich...that very cute
7:54 am
carleekat

there been a&p for a bazillion years...they still firmily inplace up here
7:54 am

My daughter is in a dance that will be performed at some crazy hour like 2 or 3 AM. They are scheduled to sleep between 4 and 7 or something like that.

Funny. I had a bad diapbetes scare (turned out my blood sugar machine was off kilter-not me) but it was enough for me to swear off sweets, potatoes & white flour pasta. I expected real withdrawl but it's been okay. I even had an unexpectedly long day yesterday & I was caught with no lunch. Instead of getting fast food or going into a bakery for something to hold me over, I bought some raw almonds & a couple of dates and I was fine.

And suddenly to my surprise

YAY Alleyn !

he did the Mash....
3:57 pm
Aussieme

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise


He did the mash
He did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the monster mash


From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes


They did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the monster mash


The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf Man
Dracula and his son


The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"


They played the mash
They played the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
It caught on in a flash
They played the mash
They played the monster mash


Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He opened the lid and shook his fist
And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"


It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash
The monster mash
And it's a graveyard smash
It's now the mash
It's caught on in a flash
It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash


Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you


Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash
The monster mash
And do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash
You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash

When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare? -
No time to stand beneath the boughs,
And stare as long as sheep and cows:
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night:
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance:
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began?
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

When Freedom, from her mountain height,
Unfurled her standard to the air,
She tore the azure robe of night,
And set the stars of glory there!
She mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky baldric of the skies,
And striped its pure celestial white
With streakings of the morning light,
Then, from his mansion in the sun,
She called her eagle-bearer down,
And gave into his mighty hand
The symbol of her chosen land! Joseph Rodman Drake.....

Some of the snow is slushy and some's still icy, Judy. However, it may all change again. We British have a lot of Weather. That's why we talk about it so much.
8:47 pm
Jacula

LOL, re Wii Fit. I packed ours away 'cos I'm de-cluttering the house. It can come back out when there's room. In the meantime, I'll get my 'makees you out of puff' exercise, climbing up and down the loft (attic) ladder sorting all the junk out.

11:36 pm
jillibus

Yes, we got snow. I was supposed to go to a concert tonight at ArtSpring but didn't dare. Too bad -- a reknowned bass-baritone son of a friend of mine!
11:36 pm
stidmama

well there's breathing room at least. This whole thing is so sad -- and more so because a lot of this pain was preventable.
11:36 pm
stidmama

that is too bad, jill -- I think you spoke of him before.
11:36 pm
jillibus

I hope I can get to the library tomorrow.
11:37 pm
stidmama

stidkid#2 took a few pics of ours, I put them on the website.
11:37 pm
stidmama

It is starting to melt here, we are at 1 C just outside. If it doesn't melt enough the high school will not open. I wouldn't mind a delayed start for either of them though...
11:38 pm
jillibus

Watching TV news and commentary is so depressing -- poor Obama is not getting any kind of a honeymoon but rather vciious opposition
11:39 pm
jillibus

11:40 pm
stidmama

I wish Michelle Obama babbled... I bet she would POWN (sp?)!
11:42 pm
PAV3

anyone need clues?...making some hot white choc...
11:43 pm
jillibus

back from your website, stid -- we have about the same amount of snow. What's POWN?
11:44 pm
stidmama

I think it means to "own" or be the most successful at something competitive. In general. Commonly used by teenagers these days. At least by mine!
11:45 pm
stidmama

mmmm. finished hours ago, but... *hold out mug for hot chocolate*
11:46 pm
jillibus

oh -- not up on teenspeak
11:47 pm
stidmama

11:55 pm
Birdeee

11:55 pm
flosey

11:55 pm
stidmama

11:57 pm
Jellen

11:58 pm
stidmama

11:58 pm
Jellen

It fits, for now...will probably need it resized this summer...
11:58 pm
Birdeee

11:58 pm
stidmama

Jellen

My brother, who was most annoyed at me when Tim moved in, took it very well...
11:59 pm
Birdeee
