12:13 am

Pinikula

pandora is an internet "radio station" you build yourself ;)

12:13 am

pigeonman

It's blocked in the UK? I didn't think anything could be blocked on the internet.

12:13 am

joey

i love Pandora. it plays some funky music, not always my taste, but it is great

12:13 am

Atalante

it's US only, as far as we could work out

12:14 am

jillibus

oh, music

12:14 am

Pinikula

I created a Simon & Garfunkel station...love it!

12:14 am

pigeonman

Joey. You can give the songs you don't like a "thumbs down" and it won't play them anymore.

12:15 am

joey

wow - i didn't know that. i knew that if you passed, it wouldn't play them again for a month, didn't know you could block altogether. thans

12:15 am

Pinikula

joey...if you give it a thumbs down, it won't play it again; if you give it a thumbs up, it will go out and find something similar...keep "rating" to build a great station!

12:16 am

joey

thanks....... i will keep going - i am a neophyte at pandora, but with all your help, i can get better

5:53 am

Atalante

she had a bitchy streak a mile wide. she used to make mum cry when mum was grown up and a mum herself

5:55 am

Atalante

she was a London Socialite and expected instant perfection and obedience. so yes,she was a nightmare!

5:55 am

Jacula

Ata - how awful.

5:56 am

Atalante

but its wonderful now. It stops Mum in her tracks however evil she's being. It's my last, underhand thing to fling at her :D

5:56 am

Jacula

I imagine her in a cloche hat with the flapper dress & beads and those shoes with the strap across them, maybe a fur collared coat.

5:56 am

Jacula

Oh, and with a cigarette in a long holder.

5:57 am

Atalante

that was pretty much right from the pics I've seen of her younger days!

5:57 am

Jacula

And bright red lipstick in a perfect cupid-s bow.

5:58 am

Atalante

she had gorgeous fur stoles and muffs and things. totally uncorrect now, but they were so lovely

5:59 am

Jacula

My greatgrandmother had those, Ata. I'll have to dig the old pics out when the loft's cleared. She was so elegant.

5:59 am

FMitch

oh tell me!! know anyone that wants to buy a mink coat?

5:59 am

LynnNate08

Atalante

6:00 am

Jacula

Lynn - rhymes with co5 sound when calling out to someone.

6:00 am

Jacula

Ata - my Greatgran left me one of those. I haven't got it now.

6:01 am

Atalante

I think Mum got rid of most of Granny's furs too

6:02 am

Jacula

If I live to be 100, I will NEVER understand how a woman who lost a husband to adultery will then turn and take someone else's husband. arrgh

9:16 am

car.eeyore

Oh my...what brought that up?

9:16 am

Trifioso

GF just called - her friend husband's just left, with a woman who's husband left her. GROSS

9:17 am

car.eeyore

Good grief.

9:19 am

Michnick

They say, when a man marries his mistress, he is just creating a job opening.

9:20 am

Trifioso

I just think it is so gross for one woman to do that to another, especially if she already KNOWS how painful it is to lose a husband that way.

9:20 am

Trifioso

Mich - I also enjoy "if he did it with you, he'll do it to you"

9:20 am

car.eeyore

In some twisted way, I imagine it makes her feel better. "SEe, I can do it too!"

9:20 am

Trifioso

gross, bottom feeding.

9:21 am

Trifioso

but I think you are right, car. "she did it, why can't i?" "I got through it, so will she"

9:21 am

Michnick

Exactly, Tri. I thought of something like that car. Like, Well, why should I be the only one?

9:22 am

Trifioso

I am definitely not one of those women who always blames the woman in these scenarios, as there are definitely two in the tango, but I do hold us women to a higher standard. there are enough forces in the world ready to shred women. we should NOT do it to each other. Ever.

4:29 pm

KatieMcG

4:30 pm

jillibus

{{{{{{{stid}}}}}}}

4:42 pm

jillibus

gogogo kathie

4:42 pm

stidmama

I feel MUCH better, jill -- but my poor poor little sentra has bled out all over my driveway. tom is thinking about getting a Honda Fit

4:42 pm

jillibus

I mean katie

4:42 pm

stidmama

hey katie!!!

4:43 pm

jillibus

good idea, stid -- very highly rated car by Consumer Reports

4:43 pm

stidmama

yes, that is what Tom says, and the babblers last night all liked it. Mrp recommended the honda CRV, but it is WAY out of our price range, unfortunately

4:43 pm

pythonx

are there any dh words?

4:44 pm

KatieMcG

no

4:44 pm

jillibus

no, py -- the list is up if you like to use it

4:44 pm

KatieMcG

i've got a honda civic hybrid and love it

4:44 pm

pythonx

ty

4:45 pm

stidmama

the civic won't fit the tuba...

4:45 pm

KatieMcG

it is a pain that you can't put down the seats

4:46 pm

jillibus

of course there's always the Toyota Prius...

4:46 pm

stidmama

the prius is even more expensive than the crv. we are budget-bare, jill.

4:47 pm

stidmama

the Fit lets you fold seats up OR down. pretty nifty.

4:47 pm

jillibus

I was afraid of that, stid -- but the Fit gets raves for fuel economy too.

4:48 pm

stidmama

yes, the fuel costs will be comparable to the sentra when it was new, which in this economy is nice

4:49 pm

jillibus

so are you going to run out right away and have a Fit?

4:49 pm

stidmama

oh -- I also got some good news on friday... I was told I needed yet ANOTHER class as a prerequisite. So I wrote to the director of the master's program outlining my real-life experience and she waived the requirement!

4:49 pm

stidmama

*accomplished mama look*

4:50 pm

jillibus

Oh, that's great, stid, and you deserve it in spades

4:50 pm

stidmama

LOL jill! no, I "had" a fit when I saw the stream of oil down my driveway on Thursday. *sigh* luckily Tom was able to make it back home safely.

4:51 pm

stidmama

thanks. I knew you'd be proud of me. It was for "civics" -- knowledge of government documents and procedures.

4:51 pm

jillibus

My m-i-l used to say "Do it NOW" and she was right

4:51 pm

o-o

so you have a lot of experience with search and arrest warrants, stid?

4:51 pm

stidmama

yep. it's much easier done now when things are manageable than later when things are HUGE.

4:52 pm

jillibus

yes, I can imagine you'd be well aware of those

4:52 pm

stidmama

of course, with a quarter million miles and almost 19 years, this wasn't a complete surprise. The car did a great job for a long time

4:52 pm

stidmama

rofl, not quite, BR!

4:52 pm

stidmama

but I could at one time recite the entire body of Election statutes for the state of Washington...

4:52 pm

stidmama

that was about the time I bought my car that is now defunct...

4:53 pm

jillibus

good heavens, why?

4:53 pm

stidmama

because I worked in the state elections, jill!

4:54 pm

stidmama

wow. I not only "saw" the IC 5, I knew what I was looking for. *faint*

4:54 pm

o-o

does the state of washington have a separate state office for elections?

4:54 pm

jillibus

changing to something new can be challenging. I bought a new purse and wallet and it took me about an hour to put everything in the new things.

4:54 pm

stidmama

it's part of the secretary of state's office.

4:54 pm

o-o

better to faint than an epileptic fit

4:55 pm

stidmama

I worked in the Sec of State's office for a little over two years, in various areas, as an admin assistant.

4:55 pm

stidmama

yes, the arranging is always challenging, I find.

4:55 pm

stidmama

Tom got a new backpack -- and proceded to lose his cellphone in one of the pockets! LOL took him DAYS to figure out where it had gone

4:56 pm

jillibus

Oh LOL at Tom!

4:56 pm

o-o

I call purses lost and found

lbdawger

Other than that, i'm doing well. how about you?

7:34 pm

lbdawger

lol, dumb hours...but important hours!

7:37 pm

Nef

I bet weekend hours are important in retail (sorry, Had my head in the grid)

7:38 pm

lbdawger

np, i figured you were plugging in words. I work 5am-10am for the most part, stocking the shelves.

7:40 pm

Nef

YUK!!! I have clinics once or twice a week when I have to be there by 6 AM; after 40 years of off shifts I really have trouble with those early mornings

7:41 pm

cwestexan

Scrabbler

Hi dawger

7:51 pm

Nef

Glad you are better, Scrabbler. I 've heard there are some nasty bugs out there these days

7:51 pm

Minveryork

I know what that is like. I had Bronchitis last month.

7:52 pm

Scrabbler

No fever or body aches, so no concern about Influenza. There are many more reported cases around here in the Buffalo area.

7:52 pm

lbdawger

how serious is this h1n1? we had 3 reported cases in the state.

7:54 pm

reparteena

Good Evening Babblers!

We had over 270 cases here in MN earlier this week (I didn't look at the alert today) and 1 child (with underlying health conditions) died from it too

7:54 pm

LeslieAnn

i don't think it's too serious in the US, but i'll let the dr. answer :)

Not yet. It's going to take some time. The original closing date was the 30th of June, anyway, but I think it will be a few weeks late, as it is it looks like I will have to take a loss, so a sore subject with me.

8:47 pm

It is raining. Must go to back door to see if cat wants to come in.

It's pouring down, but cat isn't responding so is probably parked comfortably under next-door's carport.

9:23 pm

No, salmo - try pressing F5.

Jacula

(Refresh button.)

9:31 pm

NonnieLight

No, I have not.

9:32 pm

Jacula

If that doesn't work, clear your cache and try again.

9:33 pm

NonnieLight

Do you use Babble Expert, salmo?

9:34 pm

Jacula

I don't use Expert, but the same adivce I gave before still applys.

9:34 pm

salmocreston1

tried refreshing and that doesn't work. How do you clear the "cache". I am not sure I know what "babble expert" is. I do use lickety though

9:36 pm

Jacula

Which browser are you using Babble on?

9:36 pm

Jacula

Firefox, IE or another?

9:38 pm

Jacula

I have to go now.

9:38 pm

NonnieLight

Going to read a little and then hit the hay. Take care all.

9:39 pm

Jacula

Somone will work it out for you, salmo. There's always someone heere who can help or knows someone who can.

9:39 pm

Jacula

'Bye Nonnie. Me, too.x

9:45 pm

jillibus

salmo -- BabbleExpert puts everything on one page -- Lickety's list, the grid, and the chat. It also makes sure you don't enter words in the wrong place via Lickety Add , a box where if you put in one word it goes to the lists and more than one word goes to the chat. There are other features too. It's free -- all you need to do is email Lickety and he will send it to you. It's a great time-saver, but doesn't work on a Mac.
