12:49 am

mrpresident

I just found out that a friend of mine changed his name... should I ask why????

12:50 am

jillibus

sure, why not?

12:50 am

J. C.

Hmmm . . . did he change it to a much nicer one?

12:50 am

flosey

I don't know why you wouldn't mrp

12:51 am

mrpresident

it seems like a mystery to me, cause his name is very unusual!

12:51 am

mrpresident

JC, he changed it from my name to a fictional name

12:52 am

mrpresident

is that vanity??

12:52 am

jillibus

we have people here who have changed their names to really strange ones

12:54 am

mrpresident

i don't get changing names... I never changed my name even after I married

12:55 am

dart001

you weren't alergic to vowels were you mrp? :)

12:55 am

jillibus

there's an se7/32 which should have a pl but it's not allowed -- phooey

12:55 am

mrpresident

my mother-in-law asked me for 2 years... 'When are you going to change your name??'.... I said 'I don't want to change my name, cause when I divorce your son I don't want to go through the paperwork'...

12:55 am

dart001

add an L there

12:55 am

mrpresident

that shut her up forever!

12:55 am

Kazozz

lol mrp..great answer!

12:56 am

Bugsaw

I'll bet she was impressed with that mrp!

12:56 am

J. C.

HAHAHA!!!

12:56 am

flosey

12:56 am

jillibus

you one feisty babe, mrp!

12:57 am

mrpresident

I can take it from all angles jilli! :)

12:57 am

J. C.

Mrp, now I am confused (which is usual, for me). You said your friend changed HIS name, from your name to something else? I'm lost . . .

12:57 am

jillibus

dart -- add an L where?

12:57 am

dart001

allergic few posts back

12:58 am

mrpresident

ok, my name is the same as his... Michiel... and he changed it

12:58 am

mrpresident

I am confused as to why he would change his name at the age of 18... he is now 53. He changed it to a name used by Oscar Wilde

12:58 am

Bugsaw

Perhaps he thot it was too feminine sounding

12:59 am

mrpresident

bug, oscar wilde was the most effeminate thing on the planet

12:59 am

jillibus

Bugsaw -- interesting icon!

1:00 am

jillibus

JC may give you an argument there, mrp!

1:00 am

Bugsaw

the lag is so bad on my computer I am running minutes behind everyone else.

1:00 am

mrpresident

bring it on!!

1:00 am

Bugsaw

DIdn't Oscar Wilde have some wonderful pseudonyms tho?

1:00 am

TheLegend

no lickety yet?

1:01 am

mrpresident

oscar wilde was censored to the hilt!! It is really incredible that he was unable to publish his true spirit

1:01 am

mrpresident

legend, he is just a legend

1:02 am

mrpresident

I am the brains behind lickety... he is the beast

1:02 am

jillibus

is Lickety too busy exercising and not eating?

1:02 am

LoriP

Top and bottom row done. Now for all the yukky parts.....

4:28 am

Haz1558

It's a fun game, Matthew, some people get addicted because they like it so much.

4:28 am

LoriP

Only some people are addicts. ***uncomfortable with this conversation......***

4:29 am

MatthewRossi

4:30 am

Haz1558

Just because someone finds all the words in the grid does not mean they are required to stop looking

But we call them 'the lost ones'.

4:37 am

WB Haz

5:03 am

LoriP

wb Hazaurus. Your tireless environmental work is done!

5:03 am

Haz1558

I know. Being a recycler uses up more energy than enough.

5:04 am

Haz1558

I'm not convinced that they do anything with the stuff, but at least it's nicely sorted into glass/cardboard/tins etc.

5:05 am

herinfernallady

Is that top R all Re words please?

5:05 am

Haz1558

Yes, all re.

5:05 am

LoriP

It's the same here. The resources expended VS the end result, are a great myth. Makes people feel good, so that's what really matters.....

5:07 am

herinfernallady

Thank you

5:08 am

Haz1558

It seems to be a way of reducing the frequency of normal bin collection. We're down to one collection a fortnight of normal waste, once a fortnight of garden waste, a weekly collection of recyclables and six weekly paper collection. Once a fortnight bin collection in the summer makes for stinky bins.

5:08 am

Haz1558

That's okay.

5:09 am

LoriP

: /

5:10 am

herinfernallady

That sounds rather gross Haz.

5:12 am

Haz1558

It can be. I throw bin sanitiser etc at it to try to keep the smell down, but it's not pleasant. Bins used to be collected weekly but this whole recycling lark has changed things.

5:13 am

LoriP

Ours is every 2 weeks here. 1 weeks is regular garbage, the other is compost. Recycleables ***cough*** can be put out every week.

5:14 am

herinfernallady

We have fortnightly for recyclables (paper etc) and garden waste ever alternative and weekly bin collection. Mind you the 4 of us in our unit block doesn't even fill a 260 litre bin

5:15 am

LoriP

29 left after the first sweep. Coffee is required.....

5:16 am

Haz1558

Get your strongest brew going, Lori.

5:16 am

LoriP

Oh, 25 and that's before extra coffee! :p

5:17 am

Haz1558

Amazing! Just the mention of coffee stimulates your brain.

5:17 am

LoriP

Pretty impressive, I know. If only there were more studies on caffeine and its effects.

5:18 am

Haz1558

Yes, caffeine may have a bigger part to play in solving world problems than we realise.

5:30 am

LoriP

Still missing the other 8, before the barrage of clues.... Anyone have the first 2 letters only please?

FMitch

Use to Katie - long time ago when there was only the one shop in London.

9:57 am

jacq

no shopping in the states for me, took me forever to get away from size 6 or age 12 clothes

9:57 am

suefrad625

cross, we could talk about the elephant undies for guys....lol

9:58 am

KatieMcG

let's talk about swimsuits, they are a nightmare for a slightly larger chested woman!!

9:58 am

crosshair

lol

9:58 am

jacq

i'm 5'6", not very tall but that was too skinny

9:58 am

FMitch

*giggle*

9:58 am

KatieMcG

FM they are on line now, do great clothes though a little expensive so I tend to shop in their sales.

9:58 am

jacq

those are a nightmare, but at least they sell 2 piece suits in cup sizes now

9:59 am

suefrad625

a friend told me yesterday to have her chest reduced by the insurance company, they would be taken down to an A. She said no thanks.

9:59 am

KatieMcG

not if you are a FF lol

9:59 am

FMitch

mm thats why I haven't shopped there for some while Katie, but now at least most of the highstreet shops and chains cater for taller and 14+ women.

10:00 am

jacq

to an A?? wow i was told when they do mastectomies they leave about 10% of breast tissue, that would be even less

10:00 am

suefrad625

my legs are my problem. I grew up working at a barn and having very muscular legs, now at 45, not so much muscle

10:00 am

KatieMcG

I love dotty Ps though next annoy me by not stocking 20s in the shops even though they make them, they are only on line

10:00 am

suefrad625

not mastectomies, this is just breast reduction for back problems.

10:01 am

jacq

it works in a similar way though sue, subdermal bilateral

10:01 am

suefrad625

I walk with the dog 1/2 hr in am, swim in the afternoon and walk again at night. Atleast that is the plan for the next 2 weeks until we leave the campgrounds. Then the walking will have to do.

10:02 am

jacq

10:02 am

FMitch

last year when I was down to my thinnest due to death of BF I lost my bum and most of my cleavage but I felt good in terms of how I looked and the freedom it gave me in being able to shop anywhere.

10:03 am

FMitch

walking and swiming are great forms of exercise sue.

10:04 am

the st8 is the plural of the st7/36, similar to the act of having one leg either side of an object, remove one consonant

minver, your icon brought back memories from my childhoodl. When I was a kid, we bought shoes from a small store that had a foot xray machine. We thought it was so neat, seeing the bones of our feet.; Today, we are too aware of the dangers of xrays.

9:11 pm

redturtlehead

Baby tethers.

9:11 pm

lbdawger

9:11 pm

redturtlehead

I am again foiled on day of work, have 55 left but must go sleep if I am going to run.

9:12 pm

JenMO16

but we are talking dragging, the child would not get up and walk, the leash was around his neck

9:12 pm

lbdawger

9:12 pm

JenMO16

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

bye red!

9:14 pm

JenMO16

you don't drag a child by the neck with anything, people, you should at least stop and help!

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

ty lbd

9:18 pm

Trifioso

probably she will appeal, and it will become this big deal media-tried case, and all the money that gets spent duking it out could have been spent educating the mom, getting them better situated, etc. what a WASTE

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

New Jersey now

9:19 pm

Just1Mar

winter is soon coming red..next time you move go just a tad further north

11:02 pm

stidmama

what are you going to do, though? prohibit him from swimming? always pour stuff down his ears afterward?

11:03 pm

DR1965

use a blow dryer or hydrogen peroxide in his ear and use ear plugs

11:04 pm

stidmama

gah. that's not reasonable all the time. what is "certain" to be effective isn't always realistic.

11:05 pm

DR1965

I know! especially when he was at camp swimming 3 times a day

11:06 pm

DR1965

We are al4 having some attitude issues but he IS 10 1/2 ...

11:07 pm

DR1965

I never know if it is that or the aspergers with all the moodiness

11:08 pm

stidmama

oooh. we have that compounding issue too -- with one of them. It's a mild case, but still really made things harsh.

11:08 pm
