1:34 am

flosey

west, I'm off island, in Vancouver

1:34 am

jillibus

No -- many other places on Vancouver Island, plus a longer trip to Vancouver. Once on the mainland there's Seattle etc.

1:34 am

westford

are you having a problem with the touch pad flosey? it does take getting used to

1:34 am

flosey

visiting daughter - thus laptop!

1:35 am

PAV3

Hi ladies...and any gents lurking...!

1:35 am

jillibus

hi pav

1:35 am

flosey

yes, that too, and am just awkward

1:35 am

westford

cool flosey first your son then your daughter don't they like each other lol?

1:35 am

westford

hi pav how be ya?

1:35 am

jillibus

the typing on the laptop feels different too

1:36 am

PAV3

just finished watching "The Day the Earth Stood Still" Keanu Reeves' remake of the 1951 movie...very "green" oriented with homage to the story of Noah's Ark...

1:36 am

Colhad

afternoon folks

1:36 am

flosey

son was visiting us - he also stopped in Vancouver on his way to SSI, all 4 kids are very close, fortunately

1:36 am

westford

I love mine I love sitting back in my recliner

1:36 am

flosey

very different jilli

1:36 am

westford

just teasing flosey our 4 are very close too

1:37 am

flosey

just takes getting use to it I guess west, have typed almost all my life - starting on very old standard - nonelectric

1:37 am

westford

pav I have seen the original that was spooky

1:37 am

flosey

will see how it works tomorrow morning, when I'm not quite so tired

1:37 am

jillibus

I wonder if I could still use an old typewriter

1:38 am

westford

our typing class in Jr high was on a manual

1:38 am

flosey

I'd hate to go back to the old machines jilli

1:39 am

jillibus

that's what I learned on

1:39 am

flosey

and weren't they tough going by today's standards jilli

1:39 am

jillibus

no way to backspace to fix typos....etc etc!

1:40 am

westford

I was just thinking that

1:40 am

PAV3

I've had a melancholy two weeks West...my remaining grandmother suffered a stroke last Tuesday 3/30, and passed away this Tuesday, 4/7. I was not able to get back for the viewing and services coming up...commitments this weekend, lack of funding and work. I do have off tomorrow and Monday as had been planned, so quiet time for me mananana...

1:40 am

flosey

remember erasing through 4 or 5 copies! man, what patience we had

1:41 am

westford

oh so sorry pav

1:41 am

sandyloo

sorry about your grandmother pav

1:41 am

flosey

Pav, sorry, how sad for you

1:41 am

jillibus

sorry about that, pav. Very hard.

1:41 am

westford

did she ever gain consciousness after the stroke?

1:42 am

flosey

goodnight now, am off to bed poof

1:42 am

jillibus

night flosey -- have a happy time

1:43 am

westford

gn flosey don't dream of typewriters

1:44 am

PAV3

ty ladies...we also had a cousin pass away from cancer last week...knew him only as a youngster and then we all went our own ways...I don't know if she did regain consciousness, 3 of my siblings and my mom were with her over the long weekend past..I ma not the only relative unable to return this weekend, but I am handling this loss much better than many would be. If we know ahead what is to come, it's not so difficult to absorb. But when you lack a sense of completeness with your loved ones, it is very hard.

1:45 am

westford

you should remember the good times you had with her pav

1:46 am

westford

I know it's cliche but she most likely didn't suffer

1:46 am

PAV3

the poopies are sleeping and now I need a bit of brain teasing...ala Babble. I will miss, and I do miss my grandma's version of arroz con pollo..chicken with rice.

1:47 am

PAV3

and she has had a special cheesecake I've made only for her, so I'm doing alright, I'm sure Sat will be difficult for a bit...

1:47 am

westford

hope she passed down the recipe

1:47 am

westford

when my MIL died the first thing I asked for were her recipes

1:48 am

jillibus

My grandkids won't be remembering me for my cookery

1:49 am

lynxxx

She has obviously had a special place in your heart Pav. As I am sure you left in hers. Like West said, at least her end was quick and she didn't suffer long. My sympathy is with you

1:49 am

westford

they have so many good memories already jilli like baseball score cards

1:49 am

PAV3

I have Puerto Rican friends here who come close with the recipe, but only grandmothers have that special touch of loive etc that truly make a dish special...

1:49 am

westford

you're right about that pav..probably never made it the same way twice

1:49 am

PAV3

ok thanks for this...now onto the game!

1:50 am

westford

me too

1:50 am

jillibus

oh -- you remember the poem, west!

1:50 am

westford

how could I forget it? he is so talented

1:50 am

jillibus

I didn't know my grandparents

1:51 am

westford

I remember all the holidays but mostly it was aunties and uncles and cousins..millions of cousins lol

1:52 am

jillibus

he didn't make the Masters program he wanted, though. Accepted in 2 other places, but needs a grant to accept. Still waiting to hear. Meantime doing 2 little jobs, 7 days a week

1:52 am

westford

I admire that

1:53 am

westford

where does he want to go?

1:54 am

jillibus

He did want the U of Victoria, but a friend of his got the spot. He now would like UBC (U of British Columbia, in Vancouver). He is at present living in Montreal and has also been accepted at his alma mater, Concordia University.

1:55 am

sandyloo

1:57 am

westford

1:57 am

PAV3

I plan to make scones tomorrow...and brownies, perhaps cookies and of course some cheesecake something or others...

1:57 am

jillibus

It would -- and he'd be closer to his parents and sister, all in Mission, BC, about 50 miles east of Vancouver

1:58 am

J. C.

Oh my goodness, westford - is that a real baby hedgehog??? Almost looks like a toy - it's *so* cute! :) I've seen plenty of adult ones here, but never a baby like that, so tiny! :)

1:59 am

westford

2:10 am

J. C.

All right, Andrew/sog . . . my typing isn't the best at the best of times, never mind first thing in the morning! :P

2:11 am

J. C.

Coffee . . . strong coffee, yes. That might help.

2:11 am

westford

my FIL always said it was so small they had to put the initials RI out in the ocean on the map

2:12 am

J. C.

Could be, westford - depending on the size of the map.

2:12 am

westford

map of the entire US that is

2:13 am

westford

I can't get past the first 'a' word I'm not very fond of this grid

2:39 am

J. C.

Not one of my more brilliant moments . . .

2:39 am

PAV3

2:39 am

J. C.

You're a professional Babbler, PAV? Wow . . . does it pay well? ;)

2:39 am

J. C.

Should I give up my career for it? ;)

2:39 am

J. C.

Some days, I'm sure it would be more fun . . . :P

2:40 am

westford

2:40 am

PAV3

2:40 am

dinok

You wouldnt need to pay me much to babble

2:40 am

J. C.

Hmmm, PAV . . .

2:40 am

westford

good answer pav and so true

2:40 am

J. C.

Perhaps! ;)

2:40 am

J. C.

What you said in your e-mail, PAV? Agreed . . .

2:41 am

J. C.

Found the same, but oh well.

2:41 am

PAV3

exactly JC...which is why I'm on now...this crowd is much more akin to my liking...

2:41 am

J. C.

Hmmm, until . . .

2:42 am

J. C.

Right now it's very good, yes. :)

2:44 am

PAV3

I was all set to scan some ph6 in and found out my *all in one* print/scan/fax/copier doesn't

2:44 am

westford

oh no pav

2:45 am

PAV3

that's a chore for Mon to figure out what to do...

2:45 am

westford

have you used it before?

2:46 am

PAV3

I may have to break open the "spare" sitting on my living room floor waiting for me to take it to the post office to send to my sis-in law...sometimes procrastination works out well!!

2:46 am

J. C.

Well, I'm off again - for real, this time! Cheerio, everyone - and good luck finishing! :)

2:46 am

westford

it does

2:46 am

J. C.

*POOF!*

2:46 am

westford

bye JC happy nap

2:47 am

dinok

bye jc

2:47 am

nursegladys

bye JC

2:48 am

PAV3

I've had this *all in one* for about two years, replacing an older version...last March '08 it stopped scanning, and my life hasn't been the same since..tried re-installing software, and nothing...can't take it in for service as the warranty expired nd the store has since closed up...so I bought the new one this past Dec and haven't done anything yet with it...

2:49 am

westford

what brand is it pav?

2:49 am

PAV3

when my Win side crashed, the Mac side continued to recognize the printer...fortunately I kept the Mac install disk, and that hasn't helped either...all my printers have been HP's

2:50 am

westford

my husband has one of those all in ones and he doesn't like it

2:51 am

westford

he uses it for faxes and that's about all

2:51 am

PAV3

it was really great, cuz it has the features to copy from slides and negatives...

2:52 am

PAV3

and I can insert a memory card from cameras, etc to print directly

2:52 am

westford

we bought one of those for our granddaughter but she's had trouble with it too

2:52 am

westford

sounds like a gem if you can get it working..do they have a help line?

2:53 am

PAV3

since I've cancelled the land line, the fax doesn't come in handy anymore...

2:53 am

PAV3

HP has a site, I just haven't had time to get on and troubleshoot...

2:54 am

westford

it does take time but usually they are very helpful

2:54 am

PAV3

my brother (Albuq.) has the next lesser model (no fax)

2:54 am

westford

are you happy with your cell phone connection?

2:55 am

westford

we're thinking about canceling our landline well one of them

2:56 am

PMS

My all-in -one stopped scanning but I have found that I can use it by going to 'My computer', selecting 'scanner', then, when asked 'what do you want to do ' selecting scan pictures. It then works.

2:56 am

westford

how did we ever get along without all our gizmos? lol

2:57 am

PAV3

well, it's about bed time for me...a busy day tomorrow...I have T-Mobile cell service...since '99, and am one of their most avid and long-term fans...for my master's, I co-wrote a paper on cellular technology, and Voicestream (at the time) was the only one in the US withthe advanced technology...so I've kept it even when the rest of the family switches for the latest deals and units...

2:57 am

westford

that's great PMS where there's a will

2:58 am

PAV3

thanks, PMS...I've tried that too...I think on MOn we'll give tech support a all...

2:58 am

westford

that's very impressive pav we had to go with AT&T because of our iPhones but it's not always so good

2:59 am

PAV3

call.....they say we should always have a land line available just in case ...but I'm in cost cutting mode these days...I've been wireless for almost two years...

3:01 am

westford

I think I mentioned our son's friend who moved to AZ and couldn't use his iPhone at all

3:01 am

westford

although I think AT&T is getting better

3:02 am

PAV3

yep...and I don't know why that is...I have friends here who have iPhones and wouldn't dream of anything else...was it a roaming issue?

3:03 am

westford

don't really know he just couldn't get a decent connection

3:03 am

westford

and I wouldn't trade my iPhone love it

3:04 am

westford

only it feels like a hunk of cheese

3:05 am

PAV3

....it's bedtime for me West...always good to talk with you...the poopies are beginning to snore..hate to wake them...cheese...ummmm good! thanks West!

3:06 am

westford

good night pav good talking with you too and again sorry about your grandmother..

3:07 am

PAV3

ty...we'll be back tomorrow to finish...

3:07 am

westford

6:32 am

Dorens

yes scrabs... and have been enjoying kayaking and thinking of you

6:32 am

Scrabbler

Hi dino

6:32 am

Dorens

are you home from amelia? how was it? (silly question i'm sure)

6:33 am

Scrabbler

We kayaked around the Talbot Islands last Saturday--saw many birds, enjoyed nature, fell in the water when helping get my friend out of her kayak.

6:34 am

Scrabbler

We had a WONDERFUL time and re-entry to reality (work yesterday) was tough.

6:34 am

dinok

Hey scrabbler sounds gorgeous

6:35 am

Scrabbler

It was fun--laughing, tennis, walking on the beach, etc,

6:35 am

Dorens

i can imagine. this icon is the view from my back door. kayaking around the mangroves yesterday was idyllic. there was a little island whose trees came alive with cormorants as we got near, one after another few away.. must have been 40 there

6:36 am

dinok

gotta shoot while, cya l*r

6:36 am

Scrabbler

I bring my tree and bird books on every vacation because I focus on the nature aspects of an area.

6:37 am

Dorens

good thinking... oh, we have a 5 foot iguana on our beach!

6:38 am

Scrabbler

Doren, my highlight was rescuing an injured loon on the beach--had been attacked by a shark (per wildlife expert at the rescue sanctuary)--I covered his head with my baseball cap, scooped him up, hugged him for the 20 min walk back to the condo, we drove to the wildlife sanctuary with me cuddling him--he fell asleep as I stroked his head and neck. It was amazing.

6:38 am

Scrabbler

5 feet? Yikes.

6:38 am

featherbee

morning! scrabbler, it feels like ages since i've seen you on here!

6:39 am

Dorens

oh that must have been an amazing experience scrabs. good for you

6:39 am

featherbee

wow. what a story re: the loon

6:39 am

Scrabbler

Hi Feather! I was in Florida April 1-8 and was busy with the return to work yesterday.

6:39 am

Dorens

hi feather

6:39 am

Dorens

well, maybe four and a half?

6:39 am

featherbee

ahhh, that explains it! well, i've missed seeing the green bunny here. nice to see it back!

6:40 am

Scrabbler

I love loons--my favorites in the Adirondack Mtns, so to hold one and rescue one, was thrilling

6:40 am

bichon

Sounds like an exciting experience Scrabs

6:40 am

Scrabbler

Is Phoebe with you, Doren?

6:41 am

Scrabbler

Hi Bichon--it was an experience of a lifetime for me.

6:41 am

Dorens

no, this is just ken and me. but phoebe will be in martha's vineyard next month for david's wedding. hi bichon

6:41 am

Scrabbler

You are a traveling chick, Doren!

6:42 am

Dorens

it has been a good year, hasn't it?

6:42 am

bichon

We're hiking in Norway this July

6:42 am

Scrabbler

Wow, Bichon....neat place.

6:42 am

Dorens

that must be some hiking trip bichon, those fjords look like no joke!

6:43 am

Scrabbler

One of my sisters wants to hike Mt Kilimanjaro.

6:43 am

bichon

It's not the fjords, mountains in the center of Norway. We didn't pick the most strenuous trip. Just difficult to be challenging

6:43 am

Dorens

oh that's good... if you were a fjord hiker i'd be scared of you.

6:45 am

featherbee

how do you pronounce fjord? i've always wondered.

6:45 am

Scrabbler

I need breakfast and then to get ready for tennis. Bye Babble buddies. i shall return later today. Doren, enjoy yourself down there!

daughter doesn't keep coffee! doesn't have coffee maker!! we have to go out for coffee! - just down the block, but will be tempted to get some of those baddies (but YUMMIES) hmmm, not quite so bad

10:12 am

flosey

but she's not awake yet!

10:13 am

welki

(buy her a small coffeemaker she can keep just for your visits or other company)

10:13 am

welki

<--- would shuffle down the block in her pajamas for coffee

10:14 am

oodleberry

JILLIBUS!!!!!waaaaaaaaaaaake uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup

10:14 am

flosey

she has such a tiny place here - perfect for one, and I don't come over that often

10:15 am

flosey

oodle, jilli will not be up for a while yet

10:15 am

flosey

she's a night owl, late sleeper

10:16 am

welki

okay, then bring a mini-coffeemaker with you when you visit. bring it back home with you or toss it when you leave ... would be worth the $20 just to have coffee in your jammies :)

10:17 am

flosey

I didn't drive welki, came by ferry and bus so travelling light

10:17 am

flosey

only here for weekend

10:17 am

flosey

I do have coffeemakers at both son's homes in Toronto because I stay there longer

10:17 am

welki

lol ... no reasoning with you before you have your coffee!

10:18 am

flosey

lol, but very sweet of you to make suggestions welki

10:18 am

oodleberry

ok whew that was alot of work for 7 words... bbl :D

10:18 am

flosey

and yes, I barely function before coffee

10:19 am

welki

always the jar or instant, if you can tolerate it

10:19 am

welki

or = of

10:19 am

flosey

bfn oodle, I'll be lhere till my little angel wakes - then off for coffee

10:20 am

oodleberry

ok later peoples :D

10:20 am

flosey

no welke, would rather do without - am very fussy about coffee - has to be fresh, strong, and with cream

10:20 am

welki

bye, oodle

10:21 am

welki

i don't like instant either ... but if i was stuck in the middle of nowhere with no option, i'd choke it down :)

10:22 am

flosey

I'd drink tea which doesn't wake me up! rather than inferior coffee

10:24 am

flosey

am not a snobby person at all welki, but don't tolerate inferior coffee - in restaurant, I send it back

10:27 am

welki

i'm a maxwell house sort of welki ... since i can't get good ol' chock full o' nuts up here in alberta. just so long as it's hot and strong, i'll drink any coffee. i get kerfuffled at starbucks-type places ... have learned to just ask for a medium-medium and they usually hand me something that tastes like coffee *lol*

10:30 am

flosey

we have wonderful coffee on Salt Spring - there's a group here who go down to Nicaragua - small island of Omatepe(ometepe) where they insure that the growers get fair wages for their work, buy the coffee and bring it up here to roast and sell - it's really super coffee

10:31 am

welki

hmmm...not only hot and strong ... i like iced coffee too! but in the morning, it's got to start out hot :)

10:31 am

flosey

ah, I use to chill coffee and stir ice cream into it - was wonderful, but had to stop drinking it - gainedweight

10:32 am

flosey

but it was very refreshing

that sounds fun, KT

5:46 pm

Atalante

5:46 pm

KnightTime

5:47 pm

KnightTime

in quantum babble you start out with all the words, then have to create the grid

5:47 pm

Reader951

Jackpot TY KT

5:47 pm

rbud

congrats on fireworks, Ata!

5:48 pm

gwenski

I've actually thought about that Knight -- take the list then have to recreate the grid! (Note I said 'thought'; never attempted.)

5:48 pm

Atalante

quantum tunnelling possibilities with letters is somewhat disturbing though

5:48 pm

KnightTime

the tricky part is getting the letters that aren;t used

5:49 pm

gwenski

Well, there would have to be only one solution, so it would have to be a grid where at least one word came from each letter.

5:49 pm

KnightTime

no, gwen, that's where the quantum aspects apply

5:50 pm

Dorens

ty ata. that is fireworks for me and congrats to you too i guess

5:50 pm

Dorens

off to dinner... last night in florida. see you all tomorrow

5:50 pm

dinok

grats dorens, ata

5:51 pm

Atalante

yay doren!

5:51 pm

KnightTime

by contructing the grid with the known letters based on the words, we can deduce the random generator algorithm, then back track to the unused letters

5:51 pm

gwenski

That's too much for me to think about, KT!

5:51 pm

rbud

congrats, Dorens!

5:51 pm

KnightTime

obviously I need a glass of wine

5:54 pm

Reader951

congrats dorens

5:57 pm

KnightTime

how about missing word babble? given a grid, a number of words, and a point total, you have to enter words that are not in the grid and hit the number of words and point total?

5:57 pm

KnightTime

that would be wickedly difficult

5:58 pm

gwenski

What? Just make up random words until you get the word and point total?

5:59 pm

KnightTime

words that do not exist in the grid

5:59 pm

gwenski

But using the letters in the grid?

5:59 pm

dinok

y'all into S&M or wot? simple babble is enough to kill me most days!

6:00 pm

gwenski

Hey - I never said I'd PLAY such a game!

6:00 pm

i made whole wheat penne (was supposed to be gemili but i had penne onhand) with asparagus, bell pepper, and turkey bacon (again, supposed to be pancetta, but i had turkey bacon onhand) and of course plenty of parm cheese. :)

6:26 pm

dinok

an 6 is an + pro + pro

6:26 pm

ThePropers

ar 7 --- add, *** king cole; and, ** be or not ** be, that is the ?

6:28 pm

stidgmere

Yes, gwenski, it was like the an 6, 18. That made the difference. I have ti look it up as both are not part of my vocabulary.

6:30 pm

gwenski

Got them both! [must admit, the clues were a bit hard to follow. I indeed have been away from this game for too long!]

6:30 pm

dinok

nah just means am no good at giving clues :(

6:31 pm

stidgmere

The an 6 18 is a small tree from tropical America and is used for a yellowish-red dye. The ar 7, 28 is a varient spelling of the same thing.

6:32 pm

gwenski

Don't give up clueing, dinok! You know what they say, practice makes perfect! So, how 'bout some practice on pi6 and pi7?

6:33 pm

stidgmere

So, using my afternoon I did the grid and made a danish pastry. No sugar in it but the amount of butter is enough to clog arteries. Something for the holiday.

6:34 pm

gwenski

Sounds yummy!

6:34 pm

stidgmere

Pi 6, 21 is a fish from South America that can take all the flesh from bones before you can recite the entire Babble rules.

6:34 pm

dinok

pi 6 is a flesh eating fish

6:34 pm

stidgmere

Pi 7 is more of the same type of fish.

6:35 pm

dinok

and plural

6:35 pm

gwenski

See? You CAN clue, dinok!

6:35 pm

dinok

stidg u way too fast 4 me. lol

6:35 pm

gwenski

Four left...

6:35 pm

stidgmere

So dinok, you and I are cluing pretty similarly. I am just practicing because I usually don't get enough words to make it possible to help others.

6:38 pm

dinok

I'll take that as a compliment stidg, but i have only completed three grids in last two weeks of playin

6:39 pm

gwenski

In the interest of helping fellow players practice clue-giving: se5

6:40 pm

stidgmere

se5 is a tannish color used by artists.

6:40 pm

gwenski

And that's it for me!

6:40 pm

stidgmere

Fireworks for you!, well done gwenski.

6:40 pm

dinok

thx stidg, i couldnt clue dat for obvious reasons

6:41 pm

dinok

congrats gwen

6:41 pm

gwenski

Thanks for your help!

6:41 pm

stidgmere

I think you and i are about the same dinok in grid completion. But, somedays don't even get to begin. Always a pleasure to visit and help. Isn't it frustrating to get to the end and find nothing left in the brain?

6:42 pm

gwenski

Well, I hope to be back again soon, but for now, it's time for me to go. Bye!

6:42 pm

dinok

I know what you mean. but i find the chat as relaxing as I find the grid frustrating

6:44 pm

dinok

today I had lots of treatments, so got first 100 at brekfast, then just come back

6:46 pm

stidgmere

You have done well dinok. I'm going to go practice the piano for a little while and then fix dinner. It has been a busy week because it was spring break for my grandboys and we had a lot of activities! Take care of yourself until we visit next time.

7:39 pm

Scrabbler

I found out earlier that the injured loon that I rescued on the beach last week in Florida is recovering nicely and gobbling up fish.

7:39 pm

featherbee

oh good scrabs!

7:39 pm

Krista

hi feather...oh yes, how was your trip to Amelia Island?

7:39 pm

evanonut

huh... a loon eh? i wonder if i'm related to it.

7:40 pm

gapeach

Oh, good, Scrabs.

7:40 pm

Scrabbler

It was wonderful, Krista!

7:40 pm

featherbee

hey, quick ear question, if you don't mind. if i accidentally poured water in his ear yesterday, can that start an ear infection today? silly kid tilted his head at just the wrong time! said his ear hurt once this afternoon, but seems fine after that.

7:41 pm

Krista

great! bet it was hard to come back

7:41 pm

Scrabbler

Vacations are always great--no work!

7:41 pm

Krista

no doubt you have some loon in you, nut

7:41 pm

featherbee

we're looking to go to the museum of natural history in NYC this coming week, and chinatown. daniel will be in dinosaur/chinese heaven!

7:41 pm

Krista

has he seen Night at the Museum (or whatever it was called)?

7:42 pm

evanonut

so no one has seen jac?

7:42 pm

featherbee

no, what's that?

7:42 pm

Krista

i havent been chatting much this week, so not sure, nut

7:42 pm

evanonut

hmmm... i need jac

7:43 pm

lynxxx

Don't remember seeing her Nut

7:43 pm

Scrabbler

Water in ear canal will not cause a middle ear infection (that is on the other side of the ear drum) but a persistently moist ear canal can lead to an external ear infection--ear canal will get tender to touch. Intermittent ear pain is fine. Even for a middle ear infection, antibiotics are only used for persistent ear pain, not intermittent.

7:43 pm

Krista

that movie that takes place there and has dinosaurs in it..he'd love it unless he is easily scared...google it..it was great..where the exhibits come alive?

7:43 pm

Krista

"facebook" her, nut

7:43 pm

evanonut

my tmj makes my ears hurt all the time

7:43 pm

Scrabbler

BRB--paged (on call)

7:44 pm

featherbee

k, just making sure i didn't do it to the kid! i felt bad enough at the time when the whole cup of water got dumped on his head! he seems fine, really. just easing a guilty conscience.

7:44 pm

featherbee

yeah, he does get pretty easily scared. would have to preview it. he refuses to watch finding nemo because the sharks are scary.

7:44 pm

Krista

yep nutty..i went to drs for years saying my ears hurt b4..oral surgeon figured out it was tmj when i had my wisdom teeth removed

7:46 pm

Krista

thought it would be neat for him to see the museum in real life after seeing it in the movie, but yes, it's scary at times

7:46 pm

featherbee

he keeps asking me when we can go to china. i figure, chinatown is close enough!

7:46 pm

o-o

tmj = too much jell-0?

7:47 pm

featherbee

or tmjs, too many jello shots

7:47 pm

Krista

that's cool..what got him into that? my nephew is working in china for a year...i'd offer to have him bring him something back..but i think stuff from china is kind of readily available these days, lol

7:48 pm

Krista

lol on the tmj...too much jawpain?

7:49 pm

featherbee

a combination of things: chinese new year in february, nihow (spelled wrong) kailan on noggin, a cartoon, and seeing all his toys are "made in china" lately!

7:49 pm

gapeach

Krista, maybe when he goes to China he can get some 'Made in USA' stuff. Ha Ha.

7:54 pm

maybe the parent could give the child a time out? After they sedate the child heavily by putting ambien in their cap'n crunch?

8:30 pm

USA Babblers probably think of Epsom salts as a bath additive to relax muscles and ease pain. In the 80s, UK hospital maternity units used to routinely give oral doses of it to 'dry up breast milk', wether you wanted it dried up or not. Fortunately, or opposite, for me, the young nurse in charge of the dosages when I had my first child in 84, got the does wrong and gave me about triple. I suddenly became totally incontinent in both areas, but It didn't nuke the breast milk. (Not that I'd asked them to anyway! I'd just not been able to feed my premature baby with nurses pushing and pulling at me and just wanted to go home to do it in private.)

10:07 pm

Jacula

Thank God their plot went wrong! But the doubly incontinent thing was NOT nice.

It was, Harp! That's why I had my 2nd child at home. I'd tried to have my 1st at home, which is why I think the hospital staff were so mean to me when, as a breech, her didn't turn and I had to go in there.

10:09 pm

harpjane

home birth sounds wonderful! i never had children but i would certainly have considered it

10:12 pm

Jacula

Home birth is the best, Harp, so long as nothing goes wrong, you have a very experienced midwife with you, you're not prone to panic either, and a hospital or expert help is not too far away if something should go wrong.

10:12 pm

Shirlockc

10:13 pm

Jacula

Checks are generally done beforehand, as they were for me, but, in those days, the hospitals seemed to take personal insult at you not wanting a 'managed, drugged-up' birth' with them.
