A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.

1:14 am

Nef

LOL! Here I thought Just1Mar and the liquor bottle meant you were a bit of a lush there! ;-) (jk)

1:14 am

Just1Mar

so mashed up means one goes into the other and then back?

1:14 am

Just1Mar

lol sometimes nef !

1:15 am

joshuavorbis

wow, when this grid gets slow it really gets slow

1:15 am

1:19 am

Just1Mar

1:19 am

Just1Mar

oh don't jilli...it seems that you enjoy doing it and I for one, among many, enjoy reading and seeing them

1:20 am

rururocks

17 ho's and 7 he's so far

1:20 am

jillibus

I used to look forward to seeing the choices made by others, but now ---

1:20 am

Nef

jilli, I'm sorry I don't do the icon themes, I don't get here everyday and this way I know who I am!

1:20 am

Just1Mar

or at least do the ones that you really like...so as to slow down on doing them everyday, perhaps?

1:21 am

jillibus

I think part of the problem is that it's not easy any more to find out what they are.

1:21 am

joshuavorbis

18 ho's so far, still missing 3

1:21 am

Douglas

Werewolves of London is a great song to sing when celebrating something, like completing a grid, f'rinstance

1:21 am

Just1Mar

well it's summertime and lots of people are away or have other things going on in their lives at the moment

1:21 am

Just1Mar

Awooooooo!

1:22 am

jillibus

Just, I like them all, learn from ones I don't know -- hate to see them ignored.

1:22 am

Just1Mar

I mean look at Spritey....she must be really ill to be away so long :(

1:22 am

Douglas

Severus Snape is in the grid, up to no good, no doubt

1:23 am

jillibus

bah -- it takes about 5 minutes to look up the themes and go to google. It takes hours to do the grid but people have time for that.

1:24 am

jillibus

Yes, I'm really concerned about Sprite. She seemed better, but must have relapsed.

1:24 am

Just1Mar

aww jilli well, do what you gotta do..

1:24 am

Just1Mar

is there anyone who keeps in touch with her?

1:24 am

Andree - are you watching 4 Corners. I can't believe they are talking about 'wasting' the Liverpool farmlands for coal mines! How short sighted! Talk about having blinkers on

5:49 am

just turned to it to have a look, can't have beautiful downtown liverpool spoilt,lol

5:51 am

lynxxx

How amazing, the local farmers have had a road block going for a year!!! Good for them

5:52 am

LoriP

We have similar troubles here, agriculturally speaking. Farmers cannot make a living, yet people are fond of food. If they all sell out, who will feed us? The small family farm is all but dead here.

5:53 am

LoriP

Based on what you've said Lynx, kudos to those farmers, and hang tough!

5:56 am

Andree

interesting to hear both sides

5:59 am

HAh! There was an mh word. This grid isn't as dumb as I thought it was...

6:01 am

LoriP

You're just worrying too much Lynx. :D

6:03 am

Sure. Have you noticed just how much conversation here on Babble is about extreme weather impact over the last year. When I started here it wasn't so. We are ******* this planet...and I am not even a greenie

6:04 am

LoriP

Well, controversy abounds, weather cycles are a fact of life. That said, we're not exactly doing much for the cause with our practices. Upside is aliens will never be interested in invading our planet.

Trifioso

hi annie!

jmitch

been stalking here forever...recent PRO.

8:40 am

Anniebrook

jmitch, I hope you were warned about the addiction of babble but too late now

8:40 am

Judi

Good morning, fellow addicts. Whose naughty bits are tingling?

8:40 am

Anniebrook

Hi Judi!

8:41 am

Trifioso

lol judi.....NBT!

8:41 am

Trifioso

tor's, crossy's, and ruru's will be, when they get a gander at today's pa7!!!!

8:41 am

Anniebrook

8:44 am

Angelsong

fireworks!

8:44 am

Trifioso

huzzah for angel!

8:44 am

Judi

Well, that wasn't a clue, but I found the pa7 thanks to inuendo.

8:46 am

Marc Freeman

Good morning, could I get a clue for to7 and ho7, please?

8:46 am

Trifioso

whatever works, judi!

8:47 am

Haz1558

to7/32 - Jerry's cartoon adversary plus a slight anagram of the volcano.

8:48 am

welki

ho7 = where you might build your house

8:51 am

Trifioso

excellent clues, gals, thanks!

8:51 am

Boobear

hi all

8:51 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, hello all.

8:52 am

Judi

Hiya, Haz, Boo, Welki, etc. etc.

8:52 am

Boobear

hey Judi

8:52 am

welki

'morning

8:56 am

Scrabbler

Good morning/day to all.

8:57 am

welki

hi, scrab .. six weeks until your new position begins!

8:57 am

Haz1558

Hello Scrabbler.

8:57 am

Scrabbler

*checking calendar*

8:57 am

Judi

Heya, Scrabbs.

8:58 am

Scrabbler

10 wks to go--last day = Sept 28th

8:59 am

Judi

Lickety has been very inconsistent lately. Hope nothing is wrong.

8:59 am

welki

ohhhh .. thought you began first week of September. correction: "hi scrab, 10 weeks until your new position begins!"

8:59 am

Scrabbler

He must be busy with his parents

8:59 am

Judi

Oh, that's right. I'll shut up now.

9:00 am

Scrabbler

Boss Richard Head docked me 30 min of pay because I told a 25 minute late arrival (for a recheck visit, not a sick kid) to reschedule. Why should I make on-time people wait because someone else is late?

9:02 am

Haz1558

Are you serious? Are you paid by the hours worked? If so, is he happy to pay overtime?

9:02 am

welki

petty crap just to get his digs in while he can :(

9:02 am

Scrabbler

We do not get paid overtime or for working on Sundays. Yes, he is being petty and will take every opportunity to stab me.

9:03 am

Haz1558

Rise above it, Scrabbler. It's pretty pathetic.

9:03 am

Judi

Babble is the best revenge, Scrabbs.

9:04 am

Haz1558

He probably hasn't a clue about Hawaiian geese or Madagascan hedgehogs. Think of that and pity him.

9:04 am

Scrabbler

I have debated all weekend (he notified me via e-mail Friday, my day off) whether to discuss it or let it go. It will be easier to let it go and ignore him

9:05 am

Judi

Yes. Mad heggies beat Dick Head(s) any day.

9:05 am

Marc Freeman

Haz thanks for the clue for to7 but I too dense to get it

9:05 am

Haz1558

Would it really annoy him if you laughed merrily at him?

9:05 am

Marc Freeman

Weiki I think you gave me the clue for ho8 which I have not ho7

9:06 am

Scrabbler

I am tempted to tell him to f*** off, but that is really not my nature.

9:06 am

Judi

Best to wait until your last day for that.

9:06 am

Scrabbler

He is best ignored, that takes his power away.

9:06 am

Haz1558

Marc, Jerry's adversary is the cat (name often used to denote a male cat), anagram of the volcano (often seen in babble, here today and think of Sicily)

9:06 am

Scrabbler

TY, Hazel.

9:06 am

Haz1558

There is no ho7 Marc, so call off the search.

9:07 am

Marc Freeman

thanks I am working on Jerry's cat, isn't it the same name as that guy from Rocky?

9:07 am

Scrabbler

BTW, my mother is rambling away on the phone. She is worried because a black bear was seen in my area.

9:08 am

Scrabbler

A male cat = a to*cat.

9:08 am

Haz1558

To* - the piper's son.

9:08 am

Haz1558

Can that black bear be directed towards dear Richard?

9:09 am

JBV

hello to the morning crew! this is late for me - I'm off from work today! YAY!

9:09 am

Haz1558

A big sign saying 'Fresh meat available here'

9:09 am

Haz1558

Good morning JBV.

9:09 am

Scrabbler

I truly just pray for peace for Richard as he is so internally tormented and insecure.

9:09 am

JBV

hi scrabbler, saw your post about the 1/2 hour - how terrible

9:09 am

Judi

I was thinking the same thing, Haz. Bear vs. Dick Head. Guess who we're rooting for?

9:09 am

Scrabbler

Hi JBV

9:10 am

Haz1558

I don't think you'd need to be psychic to guess, Judi.

9:10 am

Scrabbler

TY for the support--it has pissed me off since Friday and I haven't vented yet

9:10 am

Haz1558

Well, as I said, rise above it. 30 minutes pay is nothing compared to the annoyance it has caused you.

9:10 am

welki

marc ... To* Cruise + pol****, that yummy cornmeal comfort food (think Italian)

9:10 am

JBV

and Haz, your clue about the to - reminds me of something sad I saw this week on Jeopardy - kids week, brilliant pre-teens, knew everything about everything but NOT ONE of them got a question about who the piper's son was!

9:11 am

Trifioso

oh, hey there English girls - watched a documentary starring John Barrowman last night, and thought of you all....

9:11 am

Scrabbler

Goor morning Trifioso!

9:11 am

Haz1558

Those poor children, JBV, you mean they're not taught nursery rhymes any more?

9:11 am

Trifioso

morning scrabbler1

9:11 am

JBV

i guess not, haz, maybe we'll have to twitter them with nursery rhymes from now on

9:12 am

Haz1558

Count me out of the John Barrowman fan club. Ata's president, I don't see what she sees in him at all. (Hiding under desk, waiting for onslaught from Ata)

9:12 am

Scrabbler

The Mother Goose book was very popular in our house when we were growing up.

9:12 am

Trifioso

sorry, that was supposed to be an exclamation point. my typing is still coming back to me....

9:12 am

welki

there is no standard policy on what to do with folks who show up miserably late for their non-emerg appointments? (I hate it when latecomers bump me out of my appt time when I show up early for mine)

9:13 am

Judi

I'm missing two o's. I have the portentious om4 and 5.

9:13 am

Marc Freeman

Scrabbler I have been following this. You're the doctor. Who is this guy treating you with such disrespect. I would slip some Senna into his coffee and watch him run all day to the bathroom. That would be funny.

9:13 am

Haz1558

I really enjoyed teaching our girls nursery rhymes. They don't make a great deal of sense but it did teach them to keep away from spiders and to avoid plum pies.

9:13 am

Scrabbler

MArc, I have thought about that very scenario!

9:13 am

JBV

the sense is in the sounds, Haz, they are a great foundation for loving poetry and words

9:13 am

Haz1558

om6 - follow the portent with a baby word of thanks

9:13 am

Trifioso

what is senna?

9:14 am

Haz1558

os5/10 - add a Spanish aunt

9:14 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks weiki and haz finally got it.

9:14 am

Haz1558

Senna pods are used as laxatives.

9:14 am

welki

a fragrance

9:14 am

Marc Freeman

Senna is an herbal exlax. Works great

9:14 am

Haz1558

Well done marc.

9:14 am

Trifioso

can you really hide it in coffee? (making notes....)

9:15 am

welki

lol ... as in Senakot! Nevermind the fragrance part! LOLOL

9:15 am

Scrabbler

Policy = if arriving more than 10 min late he wants the MD to speak to the parent in the waiting room, explain why we cannot see them---well, I am so busy that I don't have time to do that.

9:15 am

Marc Freeman

Yes just open or crush the pills. They are tasteless?

9:15 am

Haz1558

Tasteless but not powerless....

9:15 am

Scrabbler

LOL at your nursery rhyme comment, Hazel

9:15 am

Marc Freeman

Is he a doctor or administrator?

9:16 am

Trifioso

----> ponders having "coffee" with mr. hate upon his return from ireland.....

9:16 am

Haz1558

Rise above it, Trif.

9:16 am

Haz1558

This is my advice for the day. Rise above it.

9:16 am

Scrabbler

Both--owner of practice, and the other 3 docs (me included) have no interest in being his financial partner

9:16 am

Haz1558

Tomorrow it may be something different.

9:16 am

Marc Freeman

It seems to me if you have to speak to each parent that you are running late it will make you even later, correct?

9:16 am

Trifioso

that is too good to pass up, haz...just too good.

9:16 am

Judi

Ty for the o's.

9:17 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Judi.

9:17 am

welki

I spit on rising above :) Heard it all weekend long ... sometimes, it just feels good to roll around in the gutter :D

9:17 am

Trifioso

I always liked you, welki....:)

9:18 am

Haz1558

Like I said, tomorrow I may be advising that revenge is sweet and best served up cold. Or is it hot? And does heating senna not release the fragrance but deaden the power?

9:18 am

Judi

*throws spare change into gutter* Champion wallowing, Welki.

9:18 am

Scrabbler

Correct, Marc. A sign posted in the office, at the check-in point, should just make it clear. AND we must teach these shameless people a consequence. If you are late then you miss your chance. We do not do this with sick kids--those kids must be seen despite their late parents

9:19 am

Trifioso

and sometimes the sick child is late BECAUSE they are sick! I was late arriving with Primo once, because he was vomiting violently, and I could not get him in the car on tiem

9:19 am

Marc Freeman

Now I am missing one 7 I have en7, pa7, pe7, si7, and to7 which one am I missing?

9:19 am

Trifioso

time, even

9:19 am

Scrabbler

It makes me crazy when late parents rant & rave about demanding to be seen even though they show up 30-45 min late.

9:19 am

welki

my physician will charge for a no-show, may charge a fee if you're late and will not take a late-comer ahead of someone on time. (and that's the only thing good about him ... but here in canada, ohhhhh canada)

9:20 am

Haz1558

an7 - not an affliction ever suffered by Mick Jagger or Casanova

9:20 am

Haz1558

It's a compound, Marc, if that helps.

9:20 am

welki

you're missing an7, mark

9:21 am

Scrabbler

TY for an7

9:21 am

Marc Freeman

is the first an an4/4 for against?

9:21 am

Haz1558

Yes.

9:22 am

Scrabbler

My mother is rambling on about Michael Jackson now--oh, my.

9:22 am

Haz1558

At least the black bear can't be implicated in that death.

9:22 am

Judi

Who is she talking to, Scrabbler?

9:22 am

Trifioso

is she upset she isn't getting her ticket refunded, scrabbler?

9:22 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

9:22 am

Judi

Hiya, Eva!!

9:22 am

NonoNanette

9:22 am

Haz1558

Good morning EvaN!

9:22 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Trif..she is talking about vitiligo, drugs, etc

9:22 am

Haz1558

Hello Nono.

Scrabbler

Hi Eva & Nono

9:23 am

EvaNadine

9:23 am

Scrabbler

9:23 am

Scrabbler

Waking up, Eva

9:23 am

Judi

LOL!

9:23 am

Haz1558

I'm rising above it all, EvaN. It's the way forward.

9:24 am

inge

i need a clue for pe 7/32 and Guten Morgen to all

9:24 am

Trifioso

primo has just emerged from his crypt. later friends!

9:24 am

Haz1558

9:24 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks got it. I have to go to work out and then to work. I have 64 to go and will get them later. Got all the 7's and the 8 so the rest should come easy. Have a great day all.

9:24 am

Haz1558

Bye Marc.

9:25 am

Judi

Hello, Inge!

9:25 am

Judi

I share the need for a pe7 clue.

9:26 am

Haz1558

I'm looking for it now.

9:28 am

Judi

Saw the Harry Potter movie last night. It was quite good I thought.

9:29 am

Scrabbler

Mother bid me farewell but she will call back soon with "one more question."

9:29 am

Scrabbler

Hi rbud, Inge, bye Marc

9:30 am

Haz1558

It's touching that she thinks you'll know the answer.

9:30 am

Scrabbler

She dwells in minutiae and who died and why

9:30 am

Scrabbler

I have loved the HP movies although the books are better

9:31 am

Judi

Some day I'll get around to reading the books.

9:32 am

Scrabbler

You must, Judi

9:32 am

EvaNadine

i enjoyed the movie. :)

9:32 am

Scrabbler

I am trying to figure out na5 so that I can get pe7

9:33 am

Scrabbler

OK, got it

9:33 am

Haz1558

na5 - anagram of plural volcano

9:33 am

rbud

I'm the new librarian in our tiny town, and it made me giggle to find that we have the Harry Potter series, but mostly in large print. Guess that's good for both young and old, huh?

9:33 am

Scrabbler

Excuse me, I hear a squirrel jumping on a bird feeder.

9:33 am

Judi

Release the hounds!

9:34 am

rbud

Sic'em, Scrabs!

9:34 am

Haz1558

If the HP books are in large print, do they not turn out to be enormous?

9:34 am

EvaNadine

hints for the O in the center column?

9:34 am

rbud

yes, the books are pretty big, it's true.

9:34 am

Scrabbler

I politley asked them to not jump on the bird feeders but they may eat what falls on the ground.

9:34 am

Haz1558

9:35 am

Judi

*wistfully thinks about going to get more coffee*

9:36 am

9:52 am

Hi Everyone :) Saw the kids on their way home this morning, so the house seems a little empty! There is lots of excitement going on around here with the 3 forest fires burning in our vicinity, but so far we have not been put on evacuation alert. The fire is still about 4 miles away from us.

9:57 am

NonoNanette

9:57 am

No, Cwossy. I would have driven up to Toronto for sure when I was in Fort Erie.

hi there sciencegeek! the secret is that half the words are upside down, backwords, or so obscure no one ever usue them (like toea and soccage)

Well, "epic fail" as the teenagers say! Are there old puzzles that I could play from to get used to this game?

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

If you're really stuck, yocan get lots of clies: click on the tiny green link at the bottom for Lickety's Babble Clues

Lickety gives you the first two letters of each word, plus how many letters in the word, plus the word's point value

The point value sometimes helps you figure out if you need a word with a high-scoring letter in it, and things like that

12:11 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

nope, you get used to it by playing it, sorry! 8-)

I looked at the "help" screen already to get the rules. I am stuck with the "X" and "W" I am sure after some amount of time (eons) I will get the hang of it...

12:14 pm

phaeton

there are no words that start with the x or the y or the w

12:14 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

you don't need to use the X or the W -- at least not to start wrods from

12:14 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

(ack typo words)

12:14 pm

0/0 means no word starts with that letter

12:15 pm

am i being stupid about the m's?

I am looking at the Tile Stats boxes. Not sure but it looks as if each letter has some number of word associations. I see now that W is 0/0 as well as X!

12:16 pm

sciencegeek

I am 1/9 with the m's

12:16 pm

phaeton

ok, the first # means you don't have any of those yet, the second # means there are that many words that begin with that letter

12:16 pm

hurshy

yes, sciencegeek, the number of words that start from that tile. when a grid contains more than one tile with the same letter in it, and the same word could be made starting with more than one of those tiles, the word counts toward the FIRST tile it could possibly come from, from left to right, top to bottom.

12:16 pm

sciencegeek

moot

12:16 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

science, right, that means you have 1 word that starts from that tile and there are 8 more

Nef

Hi fellow Babblers. How is everyone today?

6:06 pm

Trifioso

hello nef. I am well, thanks -- how are you?

6:07 pm

NANCY

a clue for the si 7 please

6:08 pm

Nef

I'm fine; just wishing for some rain here. It's way too dry here in this part of MN; the "scattered showers" always miss my neighborhood this year!

6:08 pm

Trifioso

dont have that one, nancy....

6:09 pm

Nef

si7 is like the se6, just add a vowel

6:09 pm

Trifioso

I am hoping the rain holds off a day here - Primo has concert tix tomorrow to an all-day music festival, and then he flies to Ireland in the evening. NOT a good day for thunderstorms, which are predicted. yikes!

6:09 pm

NANCY

which se 6 please

6:10 pm

Nef

Ooops! didn't know there are more than one (not done yet)

6:10 pm

Nef

Sounds like ejaculate?

6:10 pm

NANCY

I got it....LOL

6:11 pm

Trifioso

goodness. but thanks!

6:12 pm

Trifioso

is there just the one gn word, and plural?

6:12 pm

Nef

I figured proper terminology wouldn't get me in too much trouble; would it?

6:14 pm

Nef

that's all I have; but I still have 73 more words to find yet.

6:14 pm

Nef

oh. No lickety today, huh? Does anyone have the stats listed on their profile?

6:19 pm

sciencegeek

First time

6:19 pm

sciencegeek

Earlier people were a little testy....

6:20 pm

Trifioso

80 left is quite good, especially when you are new. There are a lot of strange little words that pop up frequently that you will learn to recognize. Folks call them "babblets"

6:21 pm

sciencegeek

Well, I cannot figure out the ho.8 and am totally befuddled on the first coums e.7 I have 2 out of seven and cannot get my eyes to seeeee

6:21 pm

sciencegeek

I am a pretty good player if the words are 4-5 letters. LOL LOSER!

6:22 pm

6:22 pm

JenMO16

6:23 pm

Trifioso

sorry, got distracted there for a second -- I moved the computer desk today to a diff window, and it turns out a momma bird has built a ne4 in the rhododendron RIGHT outside the window. Trying to get a peek at the babies....you should hear the noise when she comes back with food! it's so cute

6:30 pm

car.eeyore

Big news....we had green beans from the boys' garden with dinner!!!!!!!

6:30 pm

Nef

6:30 pm

o-o

6:31 pm

car.eeyore

Did you get it?

6:34 pm

Nef

you don't science. when I said that Babble doesn't take proper names; I meant in the grid. "Asia" is a proper name, so that's why it's rejected it twice.

6:35 pm

car.eeyore

Take the monthly cycle sounding one and rearrange the letters....I was stuck on it until BR helped me see the light!

6:35 pm

sciencegeek

argh. you are too fast for me.... Bon chance, mon amis

Seain, my sister's 10 yr 5 mo old bunny died 2 wks ago today--had a few seizures then died while about to be euthanized. Exam showed a lump on right hip--biopsy showed lymphoma. They are getting a rescue bunny tomorrow--4.5 yr old Duncan, a grey mini-Lop.

8:28 pm

dcseain

oh, sympathies to your sister, scrabbs

8:28 pm

lbdawger

i'm so happy she's getting another bunny. i've never seen a mini-lop. i bet it will be a bundle of joy

8:28 pm

Scrabbler

I start Sept 29th, Judy. More proof of my need to leave my current setting: Boss Richard Head docked me 30 min of pay because I chose to not see twins for recheck visits after their mother arrived 25 min late and my schedule was full.

8:29 pm

lbdawger

what a butthead!

8:29 pm

CiociaJudy

what a crock, Scrabs. Must be nice to know you've got light at the end of the tunnel

8:29 pm

They only get rescue bunnies

8:29 pm

i'm with dawg on that one

8:29 pm

CiociaJudy

I LOVE bunnies.

8:30 pm

Scrabbler

TY for validating my anger and disgust. Why not be mad at the mother for showing up 25 min late? She caused the problem.

8:31 pm

CiociaJudy

absolutely Scrabs. You go girl!!

8:31 pm

lbdawger

because he is an arrogant asswipe, and would rather make your life miserable, confirming that he's in control

8:31 pm

Scrabbler

He notified me by e-mail. I am choosing to ignore him over this--it's not worth the attempt to have a discussion. He won't get it, never has, never will.

8:32 pm

phantom: gallimaufry

8:32 pm

lbdawger

will she get billed for being late?

8:32 pm

Scrabbler

I am prepared for more abuse over the next 10 wks--he will want to continue it til the end.

8:33 pm

Scrabbler

We only bill for no-shows. He prefers that we see all late arrivals but that is not fair to the people that arrive on time.

redturtlehead

A hotchpotch, jumble or confused medley.

Scrabbs, ask for one I dont have, I want 54 more.

8:50 pm

lbdawger

ooooh, baby fix!

8:51 pm

Scrabbler

I found the equine word, so I am happy--I have an OC (obsessive-compulsive) personality and prefer even numbers and symmetry. Just one of my many quirks.

8:51 pm

lbdawger

and we love you for it, scrabs

8:51 pm

Minveryork

I also try to end on an even number of words or on a score that's a significant date in history or in my life

8:51 pm

Nef

She's just 3 weeks old; so last night I got to hold my grandson and tonight my "adopted" granddaughter! Sigh! It's so fun....

8:52 pm

CiociaJudy

8:52 pm

Scrabbler

8:52 pm

Scrabbler

8:53 pm

lbdawger

ahhh, that's so sweet, scrabs.

8:53 pm

Minveryork

Now my score is 1381,so that isn't a significant date for me. Don't think I'll end on important date tonight.

8:53 pm

Scrabbler

Good night all. I am on call and hoping to not get paged overnight.

8:54 pm

redturtlehead

Nef

LOL, Scrabs,last night I was trying to burp my grandson and kind of bouncing him as I walked. He's just 11 weeks old; but when I stopped patting his back, he started patting my shoulder with his little fist! I took it as meaning I wasn't supposed to quit patting him! :-)

8:56 pm

Nef

8:59 pm

Minveryork

Thank you for looking that up torgone. So I shoudn't feel bad if I end on that score. Still will add words if I get see more clues. Maybe when I leave, you can tell me the significance of my score torgone. How's that?

What is that person's problem DC?

9:31 pm

Jacula

dcs - I get it. Oh dear!

9:32 pm

dcseain

She answered my question honestly, and meant no harm with it Nef. Her answer actually helped clarify my middle school years rather significantly. And reemphasized the bonds between me and some others we all grew up with.

9:32 pm

Locks99

Thanx Jacula, brain about to shut down for evening

9:32 pm

rururocks

( my neon saying : "Babblers grid their loins")

9:33 pm

Jacula

LOL Ruru. Make the sign.

9:33 pm

dcseain

very true, jac, so far so good for me there.

9:33 pm

LOL ru

9:35 pm

Locks99

9:35 pm

Jacula

That's great, Locks! It's got me back in touch with lost cousins, too.

9:35 pm

Locks99

yes, and ditto on the cousins; found cousins in California

9:37 pm

Jacula

But the si4/4 I have to thank most of all is Friends Reunited, which not only enabled an old schoolfriend to arrange a huge reunion about 6 years ago, but also, due to the chat si4.4 that me and 3 others began (the message boards), found me lots of new friends and also the love of my life.

9:37 pm

rururocks

lessee if this worked

9:38 pm

Nef

FB has really helped me keep in touch with my neices and nephews; and a nephew found out he is the dad of a 10 yr old son that way too!

ok everyone.........It's a small world after all.......

9:38 pm

rururocks

yeah...it worked!!!!!!!!!!!

9:38 pm

Jacula

Not a guy I'd ever met before or been to school with. Well, I say I'd never met him... I might well have served him to sweets or icecream in the beach shop I worked in in North Wales back in the 70s. (His family holidayed there and he's 12 years younger than me.)

rururocks

9:41 pm

dcseain

9:41 pm

Jacula

After all, only women really know who fathered their children. (Well, hopefully they do.)

Locks99

JS might not have any basis in reality, but sure is funny once in a while

9:44 pm

Jacula

kje - Ouch! I'll give you clues when you have recovered from your concussion.:-)

9:45 pm

kje

i dented my head - internal swelling - need clue help

9:45 pm

rururocks

I have seen him cruising around trailer parks trying to pick up new guests

Min - I woke up to cat vomit all over the utility room floor and even on the scales up the corner tht we weigh ourselves on. Beloved suggested cat might have weighed himself, decided he'd had too much to eat, what with that extra mouse and all, and then thrown up the extra.

However, one memorable occasion when the cat was wretching in the sitting room, Other Half really should have left him to be sick in one spot on the beige carpet in there. Him violently picking him up and swinging him round into the hall caused him to do projectile vomiting all up the wall, mirror, skirting boards, all along the carpet.... we were both wretching as we tried to clean it up. Never smelled anything so foul since gathering the remains of a flyblown dead sheep back on the farm.
