Rushie

Just, I like the marinara recipe

12:09 am

Just1Mar

jmc...been checking out your eggplant casserole recipe but the milk ingredient is strange...can you repeat that pls?

12:09 am

Rushie

I tend to like more acidic marinades myself

12:09 am

Just1Mar

hi westie and thx rushie...try it you'll love it!

12:10 am

Rushie

Minced onion, garlic, and lime/lemon juice are some of my favourite ingredients :)

12:11 am

Just1Mar

thx jmc! gonna try it...I know hubs will love it

12:11 am

Rushie

It is nice and detailed though, most of the marinades we think up are put together with whatever we can find in the fridge and on the spice rack lol

12:12 am

Just1Mar

well I have perfected it over the years ( too many to count) and I find it comes out perfect this way everytime

jmcnrick

hmmm maybe because I have no vote?

12:20 am

westford

12:20 am

dcseain

Rushie

My bike has about 760KM on it and the steering column top bearings went

12:22 am

westford

How sad. You were really enjoying getting out and about again. I hope it won't take much to repair

12:24 am

jillibus

12:24 am

dcseain

yankee's an insult down here where i grew up.

12:24 am

dcseain

g'night mlf

12:24 am

westford

I'm using the Canada one white with a red maple leaf

12:24 am

Rushie

Yeah, but the front tire got a hole poked in it

12:24 am

jmcnrick

damn yankee is redundant

12:24 am

Rushie

So one thing after another made it a project for later

12:24 am

Just1Mar

thx westie and here's to you too!

12:24 am

jmcnrick

bye mlf

12:24 am

jillibus

It was an insult in the UK too

12:24 am

dcseain

sing it, JMC!

12:24 am

jmcnrick

too bad rushie

12:25 am

Bugsaw

I had rough day at the water park with a birthday party group. IT was fun

12:25 am

Just1Mar

well we say Yankee not in the context that you see it as DC ...us Canucks often refer to any US citizen, wherever they live as a yank(ee) yanqui

12:25 am

Rushie

Yeah, but we did get new spark plugs and wires put on the old Chevy nightmare truck

12:25 am

jmcnrick

justafreep

12:26 am

jillibus

12:26 am

jmcnrick

happy 4th all *poof*

12:26 am

Rushie

Happy birthday to the USA in an hour and a half PST

12:26 am

dcseain

i know it's a common term for unitedstatesian, but i always wince at least inside when i hear it :)

12:26 am

Just1Mar

12:26 am

VolleymomDee

VolleymomDee

VolleymomDee

12:27 am

jillibus

hi dee hi

12:27 am

VolleymomDee

vashongin

pa 6 x 2

12:27 am

westford

well jilli not to this Red Sox fan lol

12:27 am

dart001

thx for the list this morn

12:27 am

justafreep

hi, dee

12:27 am

dcseain

indeed so, jilli. my time there made me even more adverse to the term than i was.

12:27 am

Just1Mar

oh really? wasn't the south yankees (sorry never got into Amercian history in depth)

12:28 am

VolleymomDee

howdy freep

12:28 am

jillibus

nonono, just -- other way round!

12:28 am

dcseain

no we Southerners use it as a derogatory term for people from the North, especially New Englanders.

12:28 am

westford

oh dear seain I'm sorry New England was not nice to you

12:28 am

westford

but then you didn't meet me

12:28 am

Just1Mar

I told everyone Dee to quickly copy your list from yesterday before your icon went poof! I think it was very appreciated! (It was by me!)

12:28 am

skheiny

good evening babble buddies...been "out of town"...and soooo glad to be back...hope all are well

12:29 am

jillibus

sheesh, Yankees just can't win (except in baseball)

dcseain

Boston, specifically, west. i liked he time i spent in Maine.

12:29 am

westford

12:29 am

dcseain

LOL jilli

12:29 am

rolin

morning all...

12:29 am

Just1Mar

12:29 am

westford

they're a land unto themselves

12:29 am

rolin

kire

12:29 am

jillibus

hi skh!

12:29 am

rolin

oops..just a try

12:29 am

skheiny

12:29 am

Rushie

PB for you rolin

12:29 am

Just1Mar

lol west

12:30 am

dcseain

Southerners. but we're considered ignorant and backward, not least for our speech.

12:30 am

jbp

they don't have a name as such, Mar

12:30 am

westford

were you in school in Boston?

12:30 am

skheiny

hey jili, things good?

12:30 am

jbp

but I can think of lots of things to call them

12:30 am

anike

33 to go but stuck now

12:30 am

Rushie

Southerners were called southerners, I believe.

12:30 am

anike

tapir

12:30 am

anike

oops

12:30 am

rolin

innovative rushie..lol

12:30 am

Rushie

Thanks anike :P

12:30 am

Just1Mar

really? oh sorry hated Canadian history too so I'm an equal opportunity NA history hater

12:30 am

jillibus

dixiecrats (giggle)

12:31 am

dcseain

no, moved up there to experience a different part of the US. It was a good experience for me on the whole. Gave me a perspective for a US that isn't DC.

12:31 am

westford

that's very deceptive southerners are extremely bright

12:31 am

dcseain

the dixiecrats hijacked the republicans :/

12:31 am

skheiny

hahahaha DC...so tired of that stereotype...just had to get over that living in the Middle East...stereotypes SUCK!

12:31 am

dcseain

yes, but our drawls make many think us stupid :) it's our secret weapon

12:31 am

westford

don't I know it

12:31 am

Just1Mar

lol dc

12:32 am

Rushie

I keep trying to force weaken out of this grid

12:32 am

westford

I love a southern drawl

12:32 am

jillibus

I luuuve suthun accents

12:32 am

skheiny

baby, we're just sweeter than the rest LOL...sticky sweet :D

12:32 am

dcseain

through the years, i've come to conclude that national capitals are more like each other than like the countries they are nominally part of.

12:32 am

jillibus

west, we're kindred spritis, I swear

12:32 am

Just1Mar

I do too as long as I can understand it lol

12:32 am

westford

daughter's new bf calls me ma'am all the time

12:33 am

Bugsaw

Good point dc!

12:33 am

skheiny

I think it is actually the fact that we speak just slightly slower than the rest of the country...more time to gather thoughts...than just spit them out

12:33 am

jbp

i keep trying to make aspic... in the grid

12:33 am

Rushie

So bugs

12:33 am

westford

I take that as a high compliment jilli

12:33 am

jillibus

*spirits*

12:33 am

Rushie

After you just faded out for a couple minutes

12:33 am

dcseain

the only English speaker i could not understand was from Mississippi. I've even had conversations with Scots speakers from Aberdeen w/out trouble.

12:33 am

Rushie

Did you register that we got the old green nightmare Chevy running?

12:33 am

jillibus

and Southern courtesy is so charming

12:33 am

dcseain

yes, skheiny, that too

12:33 am

westford

the south is more european

12:33 am

skheiny

ma'am is meant with respect...most of our choldren know how to say "yes ma'am/sir" than "no"

12:34 am

Just1Mar

then we must be kindred spirits by rote jilli, cause I've always felt westie and I to be kindred (hope westie feels the same way)

12:34 am

cybernan

wa x2, we x4, wo x2 -- anyone know what I'm missing?

12:34 am

VolleymomDee

my mom was a southern belle and my dad was a yank; made for interesting, spirited conversations at dinner LOL

12:34 am

jillibus

well, quite so, just

12:34 am

anike

I have ra 7 and so 7. Anyone have the other 7?

12:34 am

westford

I'll bet it did dee ( hi dee )

12:34 am

Bugsaw

It registered and I imagined you driving it around the back field at 80 k. Had to let go of the image and get into the grid before I worried... lol

12:34 am

Just1Mar

:)

12:35 am

VolleymomDee

hugs west

12:35 am

Rushie

Oh no, there is no way in hell I'd drive it

12:35 am

westford

I do just !!

12:35 am

cybernan

es 7

12:35 am

Rushie

Like it is possible to lift the front driver's side of the body right off the frame, it's not attached at all

12:35 am

anike

we x 5, cybernan

12:35 am

dcseain

i got a 45-min lecture from a woman in the T in boston after saying 'excuse me, m'am, are you alright?' after i'd stepped on her foot. she heatedly explained how she wasn't old enough to be a m'am. I replie that where i grew up we were taught to call strangers and elders as sir or m'am, m'am.

12:35 am

skheiny

OMG VolleyMD..mine too..and I think I got the best of both worlds

12:35 am

dcseain

that set her off again :)

12:35 am

westford

hugs dee and jilli and just and seain and what the heck..hugs to all

12:35 am

Just1Mar

btw westie...I'm so glad that it didn't work out for you to visit our fair city this summer...the weather has been just atrocious :(

12:35 am

dcseain

g'night west :)

12:36 am

cybernan

ty anike

12:36 am

jillibus

dc, that woman was just uncouth

12:36 am

Just1Mar

are you leaving westie? chat is going to fast for my pea brain

12:36 am

westford

am I being dismissed seain?

12:36 am

Rushie

If I got called "sir" I'd be just fine with it.

12:36 am

dcseain

ah, typical of the Bostoners from my experience.

12:36 am

westford

just, we have had the same awful weather

12:36 am

dcseain

i'm apparently confused, as usual, west :)

12:37 am

Rushie

But then again, it's city people for you

12:37 am

VolleymomDee

ridiculous comment dc... great sign of respect... had to refer to my mom and dad... yes, sir, no sir, etc... definitely made me respect them... still use sir and maam...

12:37 am

skheiny

nite west...sorry the visit was soo short for me./.always enjoy your company...peace to you...and a happy 4th

12:37 am

westford

I'm just feeling very happy to be here

12:37 am

Just1Mar

aww well it was horrible tonight again so hope that wasn't the case there at your friends'

12:38 am

westford

I did a no-rain dance before we went over lol

12:38 am

VolleymomDee

ditto that west :)

12:38 am

skheiny

politeness...I fear...is the last bastian of the South

12:38 am

Just1Mar

that's kinda cold methinks..Dee :(

12:38 am

westford

rained just before the party and then it was perfect

12:38 am

Rushie

Man we are getting skunked on our summer over here

12:38 am

Just1Mar

oh lovely to hear west!

12:38 am

jillibus

well, my persona used to change when I went back to NYC -- I could get as sharp as any native and use my elbows in a crowd

12:38 am

VolleymomDee

no... ditto feeling very happy to be here... so sorry if I implied something else

12:38 am

Rushie

It poured rain down for like 3 days solid a couple weeks ago

12:39 am

Just1Mar

where are you Rushie?

12:39 am

Bugsaw

You make a good point dc. I like this kind of informal sharing of experiences and opinions from all kinds of areas. It makes me feel less like I am likely to offend someone when I know how others interpret things.

12:39 am

VolleymomDee

I need to pay closer attention to chat

12:39 am

skheiny

pass some down her Rushie :D

12:39 am

Rushie

I lit a fire with kindling that was out in the rain, and lit a fire with it

12:39 am

jillibus

rushie -- the weather here has been just divine recently! Had a lovely swim in the sea today!

12:39 am

Just1Mar

well Dee...somedays the words are more important and other days the chat is!

12:39 am

Rushie

Good ol' daddy said "Damn kid, you got some Indian in you after all!"

12:40 am

skheiny

ok jili...so we're all jealous now LOL

12:40 am

westford

oh jilli how nice

12:40 am

dcseain

ty, bugsaw. though i also must be aware how people intend things, and to react appropriately.

12:40 am

Rushie

And I live on Vancouver Island

12:40 am

VolleymomDee

lol true mar; that is so true

12:40 am

jillibus

12:40 am

skheiny

oh how pleasant...Dallas is burning!

12:40 am

VolleymomDee

12:40 am

I don't like having to be ridiculously formal, I prefer the happy-go-lucky top of the brain kind of things people talk about

12:42 am

The expression that southerners have that always confused me is yo'all. First time I heard it I wasn't sure who the lady was taking to and if it was me, I didn't think I was fat enough to be referred to in the plural. We both laughed our heads off when she explained it to me. I was about 17 then

12:42 am

Rushie

y'all

12:42 am

dcseain

i speak Spanish at least half the day at work. My Spanish feels more formal to me than my English, even though i use similar modes in both languages.

12:43 am

skheiny

oh Rushie...for us "southerners" it is habit...we are taught from a VERY young age to use the "formal" manners

12:43 am

PAV3

really DC? spanish?

12:43 am

dcseain

y'all - you all fully written out. So nice to have a 2nd person plural. Some areas use it for singular also, which is just wrong to me.

well, of course! Rushie...the chog is one thing...must be a little speedier...all I'm saying is that when spoken to..."yes" and sir/ma'am just kinda flows out of the mouth...like "butta"

12:47 am

dcseain

comunicaros - communicate (with y'all - informal) that form is not used in most of the Americas - i speak Spanish Spanish.

12:48 am

Rushie

Yes, I think that it is nice that proper manners are ingrained into minds

12:48 am

Rushie

But sometimes there needs to be a non-formal mode

12:48 am

interesting, skheiny, and good to know

5:24 am

Just1Mar

5:24 am

redturtlehead

I don't know why, as I worry a lot and all, but I think the excersie etc makes it hard for me not to sleep.

5:26 am

roncook

July 4th a bad day for turkeys , but a good day for BBQs...... enjoy the day America...Happy 4TH

5:27 am

redturtlehead

Bad for Turkeys?

5:27 am

Just1Mar

well red, I've discovered in my old age, that worrying is so counterproductive....what's gonna be is gonna be and worrying ain;t gonna change nothing

5:27 am

Just1Mar

so why bother

5:27 am

redturtlehead

Its a great philosophy, but I still worry.

5:28 am

Just1Mar

well that will only do damage to you red :(

5:29 am

redturtlehead

yes. I know. its my fault, that and coffee.

5:29 am

Just1Mar

in the end we'll all end up in the same place and nothing will mean anything so why worry? be Happy!

5:30 am

Just1Mar

yes coffee and gin n tonic too :)

5:30 am

redturtlehead

its just the way I am. It doesnt prevent me from anything, so I think its ok, doesnt keepme up at night etc.

5:30 am

redturtlehead

No alcohol, I just dont like it.

5:31 am

Just1Mar

I love it (well just gin) and some liquers like Bailey's and Kaluha :)

5:32 am

Just1Mar

and with that I wish all my American cousins and best friends......Happy 4th !!!

5:32 am

Just1Mar

as you can see my icon reflects that :)

5:33 am

Just1Mar

think I'll shut up now and let you babble in peace ;)

5:34 am

redturtlehead

Oh sorry, I was distracted by news.

5:35 am

Just1Mar

redturtlehead

Morning everyone

6:30 am

LoriP

Mornin' carlee

6:31 am

carleekat

hows u lori?.....are u having our monsoon of late?

6:31 am

herinfernallady

Hi Carlee

6:32 am

LoriP

I've pretty much mildewed, and had to Google a pic of the sun.....

6:32 am

carleekat

hi there Herin...adopt a new country for the day?

6:32 am

carleekat

today we have sun..mind its only about 12C

6:33 am

LoriP

It's 17 here, and teh t-storms are passed by now, so sun is (I hope) trying to come out.

6:34 am

carleekat

we had 3 days of over 80 F weather..i believe THAT was summer

6:34 am

herinfernallady

I thought 4th of July I would

6:35 am

carleekat

cool... thats really very nice :)

6:36 am

herinfernallady

I was not in the right head space for Canada day

6:37 am

carleekat

either was I and I live here....the weather was s*** so we hid most of the day and watched Bones

6:38 am

herinfernallady

awww Carlee. But that is good distraction

6:39 am

carleekat

i s'pose

6:39 am

carleekat

( are we liking today's grid at all?)

6:39 am

LoriP

It's a gooder carlee. I whipped down to 8 on the first sweep.

6:39 am

herinfernallady

Not sure yet I have just started.

6:42 am

herinfernallady

is wondering how Scrabbler is ever going to forgive me for accepting wild bunnies to eat

6:43 am

carleekat

why wouldn't she?

6:44 am

herinfernallady

Well we are doing two of the right things. These are pests that destroy the land and we are quiet broke and will accept meat

6:44 am

carleekat

she's an educated woman...and she knows she does not hold the monopoly on who eats what in this world..and I presume at some point she studied aussie history and how bunnies created havoc many moons ago

6:46 am

o-o

why does Scrabbler have to know what you eat?

6:46 am

hurshy

not to mention if you love animals eating wild bunnies is really way better than eating factory farmed chicken or pork where the poor things spend their whole lives in horrible conditions

6:47 am

herinfernallady

Hursy I do tend to try and buy organic stuff.

6:47 am

hurshy

organic is about not having chemicals and whatnot - doesn't necessarily reflect anything about the humane aspect.

6:48 am

Scrabbler

Good morning/day kids! Happy Birthday to the USA!

6:48 am

herinfernallady

and the organic stuff here is also free range with some products. i tend to aim for free range

6:49 am

Wolvie

good morning all - how is the grid today?

6:49 am

o-o

Good day, Scrabbler

6:49 am

carleekat

Happy 4th Scrabs *~*~#~*~* <---liner representation of fireworks

6:49 am

herinfernallady

Hi Wolvie

6:49 am

hurshy

of course i have no idea what australia requires label-wise, but in the US, free range only means slightly less horrible conditions, not good ones.

6:49 am

carleekat

linear even..sheesh..lori is still around right...she's contagious again

6:49 am

Scrabbler

Yes, people can eat what they want.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Hi Wolvie

6:50 am

carleekat

hi there wolvie

6:50 am

herinfernallady

Hi Scrabbler. Sorry for eating your bunnies cousins

I have returned. Geesh. Don't you hate how one chore begets another?

11:53 am

Just reading back in the chog. I LOVE the movie Independence Day with Will Smith. It's corny as hell, but I just love "save the earth from impending destruction" flicks.

11:54 am

LeslieAnn

movieman

12:00 pm

LeslieAnn

12:00 pm

Judi

I think "Independence Day" is the perfect movie to watch on 4th of July. Just as "Signs" is the perfect movie to watch on Halloween. "Swing away, Merrell. Swing away."

Scrabbler

1:30 pm

Scrabbler

Yahoo Dan!

1:30 pm

Scrabbler

I think I told you that I use Oxbow---high fiber, low calcium pellets, in limited amts.

1:30 pm

dcseain

Nutriphase Gold, which is what he had before

1:31 pm

Scrabbler

Geez, cloud hide sun and it gets chilly.

1:31 pm

dcseain

oh, what a luxury in the SUmmer that

1:31 pm

Scrabbler

I think the recommendation is 1/8 cup per 4 lbs per day.

1:31 pm

dcseain

i give him unlimited, but only refill when he's eaten most of it, plus timothy

1:31 pm

pam

When I had rabbits, I switched to a non-pellet diet, using veggies. they got so much more healthy. The reading I did explained that pellets were developed for lab animals...

1:32 pm

Scrabbler

It is only in high 60's so we need the sun today to stay warm. I will do yard work soon and then sweat though.

1:32 pm

Scrabbler

Read www.rabbit.org.

1:32 pm

dcseain

will do, ty

1:32 pm

Scrabbler

That is the House Rabbit Society web site.

1:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

75 and breezy here

1:34 pm

Scrabbler

I got a great deal on new mattress & box spring set today at a warehouse outlet sale---70% off so $199 ($217 with tax) instead of $698. I got the second last set.

1:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

can you transport it?

1:35 pm

dcseain

wonderful, scrabbs

1:35 pm

pam

Great, Scrabs!

1:36 pm

Scrabbler

The warehouse guys placed it on my roof rack and they cannot tie it down (liability issues) but I have all of my kayak gear in the car---straps etc and did that all by myself. I even took everything down and placed items in my garage until my nephew can help tomorrow. The set is for him actually.

1:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

sorry i cannot help it, i am a logistician by trade

1:36 pm

Scrabbler

Don't you love finding bargains?!

1:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

Scrabs, I had seen the House Rabbit guidelines, but our bunnies were just not thriving. Going over to Hay and Veggies made an ubelievable difference--i still have the veggie guidelines on my fridge and Zippy past awhile ago! Anyway, I won't feed pellets again

1:40 pm

Scrabbler

Very limited pellets, and mostly hay/grasses is best for house bunnies.

1:40 pm

pam

Great that you were able to get the mattress and boxspring home and I am glad the nephew will be around to help!!

1:40 pm

Scrabbler

We cleaned up his room last Sunday and he asked for a full mattress as a step up from twin size.

3:23 pm

jmcnrick

I like them sliced with a tiny bit of salt

3:23 pm

rbud

se6/24?

3:23 pm

PAV3

jmc...humans aren't supposed to eat cedar chips...

3:23 pm

Scrabbler

Then next year I will buy cedar mulch. How about sweet pea plants? I started with seeds and just planted them next to the deck, so they can climb up. Should I put a pole next to them too?

3:24 pm

jmcnrick

oo well I try to be open minded about what I eat pav! ;-)

3:24 pm

dcseain

se6 is one of the 4 SE words i have

3:24 pm

PAV3

if there's two rbud...mine se6 24 starts with the conservative S (the right side)

3:24 pm

jmcnrick

depends on how the deck is built -- they need things to cling to

3:24 pm

Scrabbler

se6= abbrev for portion of minute + what golfers strive for

3:31 pm

Scrabbler

yahoo rbud!

3:31 pm

rbud

at least not PC these days

3:31 pm

PAV3

well it is a bit derogatory to the Italians, but if I'm thinking correctly the spanish have twisted it a bit to be more flattering for the males...guapo..is of the same derivative..

3:32 pm

dcseain

huh. i've only heard it used to mean to hit someone.

3:32 pm

Scrabbler

More help with that Greek city state word please?

3:32 pm

PAV3

PAV3

3:35 pm

rbud

3:35 pm

dcseain

3:35 pm

fictional, fictitious
The distinction between fictional and fictitious is quite subtle but worth maintaining. Fictional means 'occurring in fiction', i.e. in a piece of literature, whereas fictitious means 'invented, not genuine'. So Oliver Twist is a fictional name when it refers to Dickens' character, and a fictitious name when someone uses it as a false or assumed name instead of their own. Similarly, events are fictional when described in a work of fiction, and fictitious when invented in ordinary life.

kje, that's how I feel about blue cheese, after bacteriology

9:30 pm

jillibus

took me awhile to like sauerkraut too.

9:30 pm

Don't scare me. This baby was born in April '05...

9:42 pm

well, let's see...the C key is intermittent, of the three USB ports, only one works, and that's only if you hold the item at the correct angle and don't move a hair, the CD rom drive door is stuck and needs to be pulled down slightly to open, the front plastic is missing on both sides, and it has convulsions when asked to do too many processes at once.

9:42 pm

transplace the increments of the synonym

9:43 pm
