lynxxx

BBL I can't have hit the bad part yet, just over half way

1:52 am

J. C.

Yes, Silverback - but due to me messing up my codecs somehow, I can't watch it yet, sorry. :/

1:52 am

J. C.

I will get this computer sorted, soon . . .

1:53 am

J. C.

A friend of mine sent me a special codec pack to install, in order to watch some of his video clips he also sent me - after installing it, I found it seemed to clash with other things I have on here, so I uninstalled that pack again. After doing so, I found I was missing a lot of other codecs, that should be on here! :/

1:53 am

J. C.

I should know better than to attempt such things myself!

1:54 am

Silverback

You could download windows media player again and the codecs should be with it

1:55 am

J. C.

I don't know - I'm just taking it into the shop I deal with, and I'll let the technicians sort it out for me! ;)

1:55 am

J. C.

I have messed up quite a lot on it, so it really needs that.

1:55 am

J. C.

I'm a danger to myself - and my computer! :P

1:56 am

Silverback

Haz1558

There had been a lot of concern about you. Rumour was that we were going to have to send in a crack team of detectives to flush you out, but MonkeyGames took on the task and passed on the word that you were okayish.

4:33 am

Haz1558

Good morning Lori, lynxx, BabbleRabble et al.

4:34 am

sprite

yes I am really sorry I didn't think to put something in my profile. Things have been pretty intense for a while and all I did was resting. Can't tell you how bored I have been!

4:35 am

Haz1558

It's okay, we knew that you hadn't been well, although we hadn't heard about the computer being down as well. Have your fingers been feeling twitchy?

4:37 am

sprite

no, computer wasn't down, I had to rest and couldn't sit at the computer. I just checked my email box and wow, did I delete a lot.
My fingers were very twitchy. I even solved some 7 star sudokus, just because I could do those lying down and had all the time in the world.

4:38 am

Haz1558

Ah, I understand now. Anyway, we're glad to see you back.

4:39 am

thanks, glad to be back.

4:40 am

And now I have to go, I'm heading off to do some more family research in the Public Records Office. I've got my detective hat with me and my notebook and pencils. Have a good day all!

6:21 am

Wolvie

6:21 am

Wolvie

ty scrabbler

6:22 am

Wolvie

and lou

6:22 am

NonoNanette

how many vehicles were involved carlee?

6:22 am

carleekat

there were 4 vehicles... #1 a van, #2 a silver cavelier ( the drunk) , #3 a chevy pick up #4 us in a dodge ram

6:22 am

Wolvie

wow. big pile up

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Are police searching for the missing car/driver?

6:23 am

carleekat

the car ( #2) was drunk..bobbing and weaving ( we did not see that ) and he passed the van (#1) on the shoulder..then stopped dead in the 2 lane highway

6:23 am

NonoNanette

have they caught the drunk driver yet?

6:23 am

Wolvie

oh jeez

6:23 am

carleekat

Van ( #1) managed to stop.., CHevy pulled to shoulder...left us the choice of oncoming traffic, rear end the van, rear end the truck...hit the ditch

6:23 am

carleekat

nope...no one caught license plate

6:24 am

Scrabbler

Yikes, I forgotthat I must leave early. Car needs a new muffler and I am meeting my father at the shop. Bye all. Carlee, I am so grateful that allof you are fine!

6:24 am

NonoNanette

damn! that sucks

6:24 am

NonoNanette

bye Scrabs

6:24 am

Scrabbler

68 words for tonight

6:24 am

Wolvie

bye scrabbler

6:24 am

carleekat

we hit the ditch but the speed ( 100Km) and essentially a 2 lane change going over gravel weeds rocks and ditch....we clipped the rear end of the truck

6:24 am

Wolvie

I am glad you all came out okay carlee

6:25 am

carleekat

yeap..NO ONE was hurt

6:25 am

NonoNanette

time to get breakfast for hubby

6:25 am

NonoNanette

catch ya all later

6:25 am

carleekat

we of course are the ones charged tho

6:25 am

Wolvie

last in theory to be able to avoid the accident?

6:25 am

Wolvie

I stress in theory

6:26 am

carleekat

we did the "hitting"... and you must be in care and control of your vehicle at all times... ie to NOT avoid we "must" have been ie, driving dangerously, recklessly and following too close

6:27 am

carleekat

then again WHO expects a car to come to a complete stop in the middle of a highway for NOTHING

6:27 am

Wolvie

I hope that reconstruction shows that was not the case. Sometimes it is impossible to stop in time

6:28 am

carleekat

its "Done"...no recontruction..since no one hurt....cops figure...leave it to the insurance company

6:29 am

Wolvie

oh man. sometimes life is not fair

6:30 am

carleekat

yeap..I am waiting for that particular cloud to go by..I HATE to think what would have happened had my son or I decided to drive on sunday....

6:31 am

Wolvie

It is true to be thankful for still being around

6:31 am

carleekat

now my daughter is scared to death to be in a car truck..anything..hopefully that will change

6:32 am

Wolvie

it should, give it some time

6:33 am

carleekat

hopefully ...

6:37 am

carleekat

8:40 am

carl-uk

hope so

8:40 am

Nef

Morning Judi. How are you doing today? (Gotta remember: WORDS go in Add word box; Chat goes in CHOG!)

8:42 am

Judi

*knocks on wooden head* It's always good to review the rules.

8:43 am

Nef

carl, if you go and read the "help" pages (right above the chat here) and think of this as a cross between scrabble and boggle, that will help a lot. Plus, under the tile stats; there are a list of sites that we use; the favorite one is Lickety's Babble Clues

8:43 am

carl-uk

ty I shall go see

8:44 am

Nef

thanks, mom. I guess this is some sort of cartoon (?) character; but it's really the way I feel most of the time. And it pretty much matches my hair "style" ;-)

8:44 am

mom2han8

I'm with ya on the hair, LOL.

8:45 am

Judi

What's wrong with wavy blue hair? You'd fit right in on the Simpsons.

8:45 am

Nef

(I just wish I had this much hair IRL!)

8:46 am

mom2han8

what is IRL??? New one on me.

8:46 am

Nef

IRL: in real life

8:46 am

mom2han8

OMG... this grid is driving me insane...

8:47 am

mom2han8

I have entirely too much to do today to be wasting this much time, LOL... going to Florida for a month and have not packed a thing,LOL.

8:47 am

Nef

Judi, my hair is stick straight and looks like I stuck my finger in a light socket.

8:47 am

Judi

Wow! That's a long trip, mom. What's the occasion?

8:47 am

mom2han8

Plus have to leave husband food, do pantry inventory, etc.... yikes!

8:48 am

carl-uk

licketys clues will be great help Nef ty

8:48 am

Judi

Are you declaring a fashion emergency, Nef? Do you need a makeover?

8:48 am

mom2han8

Being unemployed is the occasion... parents were going anyway, using my Aunt's house... so they invited us... husband can't go, but daughter and I can... so.. am going... figure I won't have this opportunity again.

8:50 am

Judi

Well, good for you for making lemonade out of lemons, mom.

8:51 am

Judi

I saw a t-shirt yesterday that said, "When life gives you scurvy, make lemonade."

8:51 am

Nef

LOL, Judi. *This* hairstyle solved a previous fashion emergency! I have the babyfine, thin, straight hair like on a newborn babe. At least now I look like I have hair! :-D

8:51 am

mom2han8

Thanks... figure WTH, right? Also, at the last minute my mother decided to do Disney with my daughter... no way she is going to last with my kid at Disney, LOL... so I really had to go.

8:51 am

Judi

lol, Nef. You can be the official Chia Pet of Babble.

8:52 am

mom2han8

Judi... if you'd had lemons you wouldn't have had scurvy... LOL!

8:52 am

Nef

I already am, Judi. :-)

8:52 am

mom2han8

My hair is the polar opposite... Thick, curly, unruly...

8:53 am

mom2han8

It only looks good 7 days after I cut it... so it looks good 4 times a year... I just have to time it right for special occasions, LOL.

8:55 am

mom2han8

ok... 65 left and too much to do... bbl... bye all!

4:51 pm

zoozzoom

Well done Hurshy..did you get a cup of tea at the end?.

4:51 pm

hurshy

lol, i'm not actually in britain, so... no. water and juice and snacks were provided, but not tea.

4:52 pm

zoozzoom

i`m too sacred to do that my self..i hate needles..my parents used to give blood on a regular basis.

4:52 pm

hurshy

not sure why anyone would want tea when it's 80 degrees and 80% humidity anyway...

4:53 pm

zoozzoom

what no tea. in the US..oh dear...no matter how hot it is..lol

4:53 pm

hurshy

we have tea, of course - it's just not as ubiquitous.

4:53 pm

zoozzoom

does it hurt a little when they put the needle in?.

4:54 pm

hurshy

a little - same as if you get blood drawn for a test

4:55 pm

zoozzoom

i really must try and give some..i think it is great that people are willing to help others like that..just need to get over the fear of needles really.

4:57 pm

hurshy

i am lucky not to have that. i haven't given before because the first time i DID have blood drawn for a test, the nurse couldn't find the vein, and it was horribly painful and i got a huge bruise, so i thought i had difficult veins. but since then i have had blood drawn on a couple occasions with no problem, so i decided it was time.

4:57 pm

hurshy

apparently it was the nurse, not so much my veins.

4:57 pm

jmcnrick

This is my first episode, so a sort-of good learning experience, I guess.

7:36 pm

DR1965

7:36 pm

7:37 pm

lbdawger

7:37 pm

icepyro

motherlode country.... just north of Yosemite

7:38 pm

DR1965

AH! My son did his research paper on Sutter's Mill

7:38 pm

7:39 pm

icepyro

er...

7:39 pm

DR1965

ok

7:40 pm

lbdawger

7:40 pm

DR1965

I have never been to Yosemite- isnt that awful>

7:40 pm

icepyro

Sonora is the city I live in heh

7:41 pm

lbdawger

actually, that's not surprising, DR

7:41 pm

DR1965

I would love to go there...

7:41 pm

DR1965

I have heard Sonora is pretty Ice

7:41 pm

DR1965

or is that sonoma??? or both??? I am confused

7:42 pm

icepyro

lol I was kinda wondering

7:42 pm

lbdawger

right at the foothills of the sierras, i think...

7:42 pm

icepyro

you're probably thinking Sonoma

7:42 pm

DR1965

* googling sonora

7:43 pm

icepyro

well Sonora is in the foothills, Sonoma is wine country

7:43 pm

icepyro

lol yeah, Sonora isn't popular

7:44 pm

DR1965

it is pretty though

7:44 pm

lbdawger

i love small burgs, and just googled sonora. i think i'd like it there! except for all the "californians" LOL

7:44 pm

DR1965

and with 4th grade California History- I knew it was gold rush related

7:45 pm

DR1965

except present company of course dawger

7:45 pm

icepyro

lb, I couldn't agree more

7:46 pm

lbdawger

7:46 pm

lbdawger

it's much like Montana, love the place, except for the people! ;-)

7:47 pm

icepyro

I love the small town bit, actually I prefer a little further into the foothills. Twain Harte is nice and small and even prettier than Sonora I think and just barely into snow country

7:47 pm

lbdawger

8:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

had someoen i have worked with on committees for 7 years in hospital with bad diagnosis - called him to ask how his test were coming and he told me he has a month to love

8:34 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Madi

8:34 pm

Madi95

I'm great, Min, thanks for asking! hi dc, too :)

8:34 pm

lbdawger

hi madi, no kje. usually it's trashcan time

8:35 pm

Minveryork

Madi95,I like your dog picture.What kind of dog is it?

8:35 pm

dcseain

oh, sorry to hear, TO

8:35 pm

kje

but i love them

8:35 pm

Minveryork

Oh that is awful 72 Temple Owl. What is he sick with?

8:35 pm

lbdawger

how sad, TO. help your friend make the most of his time left.

8:35 pm

Madi95

Thanks, Min, but I have no idea to be truthful.

8:35 pm

dcseain

taca is an airline, isn't it.

8:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

but it is so bad. he said why are you asking me this, you got the emails.

8:36 pm

Scrabbler

So sad, Owl. Did this person just find out?

8:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

i'm not gong to go into that with you, you got the emails. but i didn't .

8:36 pm

lbdawger

kje, you can ask a cobbler if they can be fixed, but they wont be the same.

8:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

i mean i was just floored.

8:37 pm

lbdawger

sounds like he's a bit angry with the diagnosis, TO. He needs a bit of time to work it out.

8:37 pm

Scrabbler

he needs to realize that a non-reply meant you didn't get his e-mails

8:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

i had no idea. and i suppose he was equally floored that i could ask how he was if i knew he was dying

8:38 pm

Minveryork

Is he close enough so you can visit him in the hospital

8:38 pm

Scrabbler

He needs to review your conversation and realize the truth.

8:38 pm

lbdawger

perhaps an email to him stating that you didn't get any of his emails will help settle the air between you.

8:39 pm

welki

could be that, because of the illness (or the shock of finding out about it), he's forgetful and thought he sent you emails

8:39 pm

Scrabbler

72 Temple Owl

i got an email from the committee a month ago at which time i called him and he was awaiting tests to tell him which chemo. tried to visit a week later but he was not accepting visitors that day. heard nothing from anyone since then

8:41 pm

Minveryork

Maybe you can clear the air in person at the hospital

8:41 pm

72 Temple Owl

it was not HIM it was the group's place tp update

8:41 pm

lbdawger

write that in an email, TO. let him know you didn't know. If he's ready he'll contact you.

Quite honestly, it is scary to be a medical/surgical patient and one must be a fierce advocate for oneself and one's loved ones. Find doctors that are cautious + trustworthy.

8:52 pm

Owl, this is NOT your fault at all, and he could have called you when he got no reply from you. And i am sure that your shock today should be evidence to him that you did not get his e-mails.

aha finally! was in the same boat with JC

9:28 pm

9:30 pm

Trifioso

oh, hey JC - I keep meaning to tell you....in your bio, you refer to the @ as an ampersand, but it is actually called an amphora. No one - and I mean nobody - knows what you are talking about if you say amphora though. Just thought I would pass it on, really

9:30 pm

dcseain

i'm on aim an googletalk mostly. i have yahoo, but don't use it much anymore

9:30 pm

Trifioso

that worked, lbd, thanks so much!

9:30 pm

J. C.

Oh really, Trif? Interesting - never heard it referred to that way before?!

9:30 pm

dcseain

@ is an 'at' 'a comercial' or an 'arroba' to me

9:30 pm

lbdawger

is google talk the same thing that gmail has?

9:30 pm

Trifioso

personally I am bothered that "tranny" isn't enable accepted

9:31 pm

dcseain

me too ,trifioso, but it is enable after all

9:31 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations dan2bit on fireworks!Hooray for you

9:31 pm

Trifioso

enable must be more conservative, I guess....

9:31 pm

dan2bit

yes lbd it is the same. thanks minver!

9:32 pm

lbdawger

thanks, dan.

9:32 pm

dcseain

mostly clueless, IMHO, trifioso

9:32 pm

Minveryork

Trifioso, I saw your reference to Little House on the Prairie. I used to LOVE that show!I watched a rerun today.I grew up in a town like the one in Little House

9:32 pm

lbdawger

Dan, give Mrs 2bit a hug from me. she needs it.

9:32 pm

Trifioso

isn't there some sort of south american cat with all c's and a's in its name? caracal or something like that?

9:32 pm

J. C.

Yes, I completely messed up on that, Trif - the & is an ampersand! :P That's me, very very overtired. :/ Zzzzz . . .

9:33 pm

J. C.

Does the '@' symbol actually have a proper name? :P

9:33 pm

dcseain

yes, dawg, googletalk is that thing gmail has :)

9:33 pm

Trifioso

thanks min. I LOVE the books, so much. I read to Primo every night of his life until 8th grade, and we did all sorts of childhood favorites, and new titles too, but the Little House books just didn't hold much interest for him, other than Farmer Boy....

9:33 pm

Trifioso

I think it is called an amphora, JC. That's what I was told, anyway

9:34 pm

Jacula

An amphora is an old Greek 2-handled bottle used tohold oil or wine.

9:34 pm

Jacula

An ampersand is the &.

9:35 pm

J. C.

Yes, Jacula - I realised that, all of a sudden. That's how overtired I am. :P

9:35 pm

lbdawger

at sign is just that @ at sign, no fancy names for it that i can find

9:35 pm

J. C.

Oh well - I've just amended it anyway, Trif - and I think this works?

9:35 pm

J. C.

Yes, lbdawger - I've just changed it to say "@ symbol." :P

9:35 pm

J. C.

It probably does have a name, though - I think most of those characters do?

9:36 pm

Madi95

back again, with more yogurt on a paper plate and juice in a PAPER cup... I hate thinking of how many trees pnuemonia kills... haha

9:36 pm

J. C.

My friend Laura just now told me on the messenger, it's called a "commercial at."

9:36 pm

Jacula

ampersand is it's name, from 'and per se'.

9:36 pm

J. C.

Haven't run into that one, before . . .

9:37 pm

Jacula

its not it's. LOL

9:37 pm

dcseain

comme j'ai dit - a comercial :P

9:37 pm

J. C.

Yes, Jacula . . . that's correct. I'm just terribly overtired, and wasn't thinking straight. As if I could ever think 'straight'? HAHAHA . . .

Goobye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the chat

9:44 pm

J. C.

Was telling ruru about her, and losing her. :(

9:44 pm

Jacula

Ah! I know who you are now, JC. Well, not personally, but you know what I mean.

9:44 pm

J. C.

9:44 pm

Jacula

Yes, losing a much-love pet is very traumatic.

9:45 pm

dcseain

in which case, i know not to which word you refer

9:45 pm

J. C.

Yes, Jacula - after 19 years. You know - it was almost impossible to imagine my life without her. :( I will always miss her . . .

9:45 pm

Jacula

My 'd' key seems to be sticking. Must clean this keyboard!

JC - same here re my dog of 18 years. I haven't had another dog yet since cats came into my life.

9:45 pm

J. C.

Merci beacoup, Madi . . .

9:46 pm

Jacula

He hated cats. I wonder why he sent me two to look after??

9:46 pm

J. C.

Oh, well I got another a few months later - as you probably know. I've recently added another to our little family, also - he's four months old now.

9:47 pm

J. C.

I have a cat, also . . .

9:47 pm

J. C.

Our resident pest control . . . good mouser!

Allergic to cats, sadly. I wanted a cat when I was little.

oh, RATS! I just realized today is Tuesday, and Rescue Me is on, and now I have missed most of it. Arrrgh

9:48 pm

Jacula

Mine's a good mouser, too. I'm amazd we weren't tripping over mice before we had him. (Our old cat didn't bother with hunting any more once she found us. She'd had ahard life fending for herself before.)

9:48 pm

Pinikula

hi all...

9:49 pm

Pinikula

Trif, you can catch it again on Hulu.com (just may have to wait a few days)

9:49 pm

Minveryork

Hello Pinikula!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

9:49 pm

Yes, we get them coming in here, being situated where we are, and in such an old house . . .

9:49 pm

hi madi!

9:49 pm

I'm ready for another dog now but Tiggsey, the bruiser cat abhors dogs.

9:49 pm

Pinikula

hey jc

9:49 pm

J. C.

Pini! :)

9:50 pm

J. C.

Get a bruiser dog? :P

9:50 pm

Madi95

how are you, Pini?

9:50 pm

Trifioso

jacula, how did you teach him/her to be such a good mouser? We have two cats we adopted as kittens, and they have yet to catch a thing. someone told me it is because they didn't have a mom to teach them how....

9:50 pm

Pinikula

well, I'd be doing better if it wasn't a blasted 103F

9:51 pm

Jacula

I'm thinking that maybe a dog scared him and his mother onto the dual carriageway where she was killed and he survived (albeit with a cut on his head) to sit by her body until my daughter and her b/f rescued him.

9:51 pm

dcseain

oooh, a new blog about urban planning in the DC area:

hiya, pini!

9:51 pm

Pinikula

hey dc :)

9:51 pm

Jacula

Trif - I didn't teach him, he just does it.

9:51 pm

J. C.

Most cats will mouse, if they see one, Trif - it's quite a natural instinct, to go after anything like that. You mean to say they've seen mice running about, and don't do anything about it?

9:51 pm

Madi95

oh, my. It's 95 here and I'm complaining.

9:51 pm

That an 5/10 word is an plus camp in a t*** Andree.

they would condescend to catch a mouse if it came up and tweaked their noses....sigh. that is the whole reason I GOT them!

9:52 pm

Pinikula

hiya jac ;)

9:52 pm

J. C.

Awww, Jacula - what a terribly sad, upsetting story! :(

9:52 pm

J. C.

Poor cats! :(

9:52 pm

J. C.

Goodness, Trif - do they KNOW they're cats? :P

9:52 pm

Jacula

JC - don't really want a bruiser dog, just a loyal mutt will do. My old dog, as you might know, was a Jack Russell x Sheltie.

9:53 pm

J. C.

I was joking, Jacula - I tend to do that, erm, sometimes. :P

9:53 pm

Madi95

Jack Russels are sweeties. :) I have 2

A bit more of a bruiser than a herder then, JC.

9:54 pm

Madi95

We were blessed with two that aren't as crazy as they're made out to be. one has Lupus, though.

9:54 pm

J. C.

Awww, but he isn't a bruiser - he's a sweetie. :) A little monkey, though. His favourite toys are Valerie's ears and tail, so far - she may never forgive us! :P

9:54 pm

Jacula

Trif - you mght be right about them not having a mum to teach them. My cat was a 'teenager' whenhe lost his Mum.

9:55 pm

J. C.

I should post a funny photo we took of them sitting on the lawn, side by side - you can tell Val doesn't want to be there, and the look on her face says it all!

9:56 pm

Jacula

JC - you'll have to get a flickr.com account so you can show your pet pics on here.

9:57 pm

Jacula

Madi - can the lupus be controlled or cured?

9:57 pm

J. C.

I have one, Jacula.

9:57 pm

Jacula

Oh, does anyone need any clues, btw?

9:57 pm

J. C.

I did have one with all sorts of albums of my photos in it, but I had to remove it, due to harassment and stalking. :/

9:57 pm

Oh, ruru - put a photo of my present dog and new puppy in the bio now. You can tell she isn't impressed with the youngster - doesn't her face say it all? :P

i haven't seen you on much mrp, did the last week of school hols go well, did the kids get to see "Harry"

10:05 pm

Oh, there you are, Jacula - the photo of the dogs, I've put it in there now.

10:05 pm

J. C.

You will p robably have to refresh this page, to see it?

10:06 pm

Jacula

JC - Yes, I've looked. It's better with a flickr account though, as you can see larger versions of photos. It can be as open or as anonymous as you like on there.

thx jac, never heard of that bird before

Jacula - you must've missed what I already typed to you about Flckr. I'm perfectly aware, as I had a Flickr account with albums and many photos, which I recently had to remove due to stalking and harrassment - I have another now, which is very well hidden/unsearchable, but I don't know when I will get a chance to repost everything I had in the other one.

10:09 pm

Andree

haven't had a chance to saywhat a lovely day we had with grannyrose , thank you for driving us about and your top lunch destination, I dream of that seafood platter

10:10 pm

Jacula

JC - I must've missed that but I can understand why your new one is hidden. I had to make my blog by invitation only.

10:11 pm

J. C.

Yes, Jacula - I've had to do the same with my page on MySpace, also.

10:11 pm

it was fabulous andree! totally enjoyed it too!

Not stalking on the scale you had, I guess, but unpleasant stuff from friends of my kids.

I talked about a friend of theirs who had died and some twat of a hospital radio reporter found it, posted it on his 'memorial site' and then whipped them up to ask what it had to do with me since I didn't know him personally.

So, JC, what have you been up to lately? How come you're up at 4.18am? (God, I used to hate it when net people asked me that. Even worse if they told me to go to bed.)

10:19 pm

Jacula

dcs - Not me. Sorry.

10:20 pm

J. C.

Lots of things, Jacula - and I'm up because, well, I'm up. :P

10:23 pm

Jacula

Pinikula

10:26 pm

J. C.

Now, how does Madi know I'm a fairy? ;)

10:29 pm

J. C.

My icon is the flower from Yahoo! Games, and screen name is 'Literati Lover'. :P

10:29 pm

Minveryork

If you use reverse dictionary it's number 7 on the list

10:29 pm

10:31 pm

J. C.

Oh, SÃ©ain?

10:32 pm

Jacula

JC _ I can see the addy in your bio but no new one.

10:33 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations dcseain on fireworks!Hooray for you

10:33 pm

J. C.

No, Jacula - I don't use it. I am on Myspace. If you look at the links in my profile, you will see how to play word games with me - that's whenever I manage to find time for them! ;) Do you have a Yahoo! account, Jacula?

10:33 pm

Jacula

JC My Space? Ihaven't been there in ages! I'll take a look at the privacy options.

10:36 pm

Pinikula

no worries...everything helps

10:37 pm

Jacula

J.C. I've noted your email and will get in touch when I'm not so tired. I'm okay to chat on here but not for wandering from Firefox to IE etc. right now.

10:38 pm

Pinikula

oooooh, I found an 8!!!!

10:38 pm

J. C.

OK, Jacula - then I will have to check my spam folder, because e-mail from anyone whose address isn't in my 'safe senders' list gets put there.

10:39 pm

J. C.

We are connected on Flickr, then . . . because my address only shows to contacts, who are marked as 'friends'.

10:39 pm

Jacula

JC - I will put Jacula Babble in the title line when I mail you.

10:39 pm

Pinikula

last A I need is at5?

10:39 pm

J. C.

No information in my page there, shows to anyone who isn't.

10:39 pm

J. C.

That won't matter, Jacula - any e-mail address not on my safe senders list goes in the spam folder.

10:40 pm

J. C.

So I'll have to check that - if you could just send me a quick e-mail now, I can do that, and ensure you get marked as a 'safe sender.'

10:40 pm

Minveryork

That last at 5/10 word is a book full of maps Pinikula.

10:40 pm

J. C.

Even just a blank one - just to do that.

10:40 pm

Pinikula

oy, thx min...sadly I think the weather is getting to me...

10:40 pm

Pinikula

...and I'm missing the easier ones (and thank you profusely for the obscure)

10:41 pm

Pinikula

but the A's are done now!

10:41 pm

Jacula

okay JC - I'll do it now.

10:41 pm

J. C.

Thanks, Jacula!

10:44 pm

Jacula

It's done.

10:44 pm

Pinikula

first co7? easy? hard?

10:44 pm

J. C.

Nothing's come in yet, Jacula? I'll keep checking it.

10:45 pm

Jacula

Pink the easy ones are always the ones I miss - and the plurals. I never see 'aunt' or 'niece' either.

10:45 pm

Minveryork

The 1st co 7/36 word is co plus en 5/12 word Pinikula

10:45 pm

Jacula

Freebie e-mail, JC perhaps not so fast as the paid-for one. LOL

10:47 pm

Pinikula

sorry, I don't have any en's yet :(

10:47 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . nothing yet, either. :/

10:47 pm

J. C.

Can you put your address in your Flickr profile, and set it so only friends can see it, Jacula?

10:47 pm

Jacula

Sent to your gmail address, JC

10:47 pm

Jacula

I have a new one from literati lover? Is that a Babbler?

10:48 pm

J. C.

How can that be, Jacula - you don't know my Gmail address?!

10:48 pm

J. C.

Oh, sorry - the one in my bio, you mean? :P

10:48 pm

Jacula

It's at the bottom of your bio in here, JC.

10:48 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA - yes, I'm tired. :P That isn't my regular Gmail account, that's why I forgot about it for the moment. :P

10:49 pm

Jacula

Check that one, JC.

10:50 pm

J. C.

Oh, OK Jacula - got it. That one forwards to my main address, which is in my Flickr page. I don't know why it hadn't come into there yet!

10:51 pm

Jacula

I'm amazed at the titles of the porno emails that roll in - some are very inventive. Others lack something in the (bad) translation and make it sound like they're trying to lure you with a kango hammer or a set of power tools.

10:51 pm

Minveryork

Since Jacula is back to give clues,I am off to bed now

10:51 pm

Jacula

JC - I'm too tired to check the flickr stuff now. Will do so later.

10:51 pm

Pinikula

I broke 50!!!

10:51 pm

Minveryork

Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow

10:52 pm

Jacula

OY MIN! Don't do that to me again. I'm tired.

10:52 pm

Pinikula

night min!

10:52 pm

J. C.

Oh, I mostly get adverts for Viagra, Jacula - which is about the last thing I need. Me on that? A very scary thought! :P

10:52 pm

Pinikula

it's OK...i have plenty-o-time!

10:52 pm

Jacula

She did it again, the bloody... MIN. LOL

10:53 pm

Pinikula

* giggle *

10:53 pm

Pinikula

10:54 pm

Jacula

Are you talking porn, PInk? *grins* Co8 is a legal thing you might sign or the opposite of 'to open up or expand.

10:55 pm

Pinikula

oooh, thx, jac! (no porn here)

10:55 pm

Jacula

10:56 pm

Jacula

Ah, but Pink, he isn't addicted (yet).

10:57 pm

Pinikula

oh, he'll be assimilated soon, Jac...we all know resistance is futile!

10:57 pm

gingentleman

I'm addicted, but crosseyed.

10:57 pm

11:00 pm

Jacula

Redhead, I meant.

11:00 pm

J. C.

No, Jacula - but the rest fits, doesn't it? Especially the 'poof' part! ;)

11:00 pm

Jacula

The rest is fine if it doesn't coincide with ginger. LOL

11:01 pm

J. C.

True . . . but I just saw 'poof', and assumed you meant me. :P

11:01 pm

J. C.

11:01 pm

Jacula

I don't have anything against redheads, other than that bloke Mick from Simply Red.

11:02 pm

Jacula

Probably JC, but you're not alone on Babble.

11:02 pm

J. C.

11:03 pm

Jacula

AARGH - LOL, Don't! But I appreciate the parody.

11:03 pm

Pinikula

Pinikula

11:07 pm

Pinikula

oh, sorry (the first one)

11:11 pm

Pinikula

after abbrev for NE US state

11:11 pm

Jacula

co6/21 means 'against' and you might find it written before the word 'indications' on the leaflet in any medicinal thing you might buy.

11:12 pm

Jacula

JC - can you sent an email to me in reply so I know where I'm going and remember?

11:12 pm

Jacula

11:13 pm

Pinikula

I think I'm going to brain dead...it's after 9pm at night and still 95F (35C)

After 9pm? It's 5.14am here in UK.

11:26 pm

Jacula

We had a phantom wheeliebin person go by at 2.33am t'other night. It's in my blog. Was it a thief, a murder or someon taking a drunken friend home (wrapped in clear polythene)?

11:27 pm

Jacula

'Night Pink.

11:29 pm

J. C.

Not sure what you mean, Jac?

11:29 pm

I've just replied to your e-mail, though . . .

Oh, well yes I did - and I have just replied.

11:48 pm

It was a Foo Dog, as my entry for the Collections icon theme -- my aunt collected them. This was not one of hers.

I couldn't stay online -- too hot here for the health of the computer, I was told. 35C, 94F in the house with fans going -- 46C, 119F outside my bedroom window. Now it's cooled down a bit at 9:51 pm -- only 33C, 88F in here
