12:11 am

flosey

that was my last one rbud

12:13 am

mrpresident

I was in my 'dating' phase in the 80's.... AIDS was prevelant in all the news...
so, I would get myself a boyfriend... after about 1 month, I would take them to the bloodbank for a lunchtime date. If they gave their blood, and shared their results with me afterwards, they would become my 'real' boyfriend!

12:13 am

mrpresident

I was considered GOTH back then for this action!

12:13 am

joshuavorbis

me6

12:13 am

rbud

and that was a bad thing, mrp? sounds sorta reasonable to me

12:14 am

12:14 am

jillibus

smart cookie, mrp!

12:14 am

mrpresident

was very reasonable!! Lickety went through the same stringent test! LOL!

12:15 am

dcseain

and it seems you've done well with him

12:15 am

mrpresident

in that time... mid 90's... people had 'gotten over' the scare...

12:16 am

Jacula

Just glad I'm npt still signed in.

12:16 am

mrpresident

I was a 10 year veteran of the bloodbank

12:16 am

dcseain

yes, and today, it's so treatable that the current generation is MUCH less concerned. Foolhardy lot on that count, IMHO

6:37 am

Hello Scrabs

6:38 am

Atalante

hi scrabs :)

6:38 am

Scrabbler

I swam in a bog in the Adirondacks in July, near a waterfall. Beautiful. Cold, clean water and so much life growing in it.

6:39 am

hurshy

i didn't thing bogs were swimmable. i thought they were thick and mucky.

6:39 am

Atalante

how gorgeous

6:39 am

hurshy

*think

6:39 am

Scrabbler

We portaged around a dam and paddled back. Maybe it was more of a marsh?

6:39 am

Atalante

some are. some aren't

6:40 am

zoozzoom

ok 16 to find , will be back later, people at the door.

6:40 am

Atalante

marshy / fen / swampy bog thing

6:40 am

Scrabbler

I took a photo of plant life growing at the end of a trunk that was sticking above the water. Amazing survival.

6:41 am

hurshy

hey, can anybody think of the explanation for this? crossword puzzle clue was "Spotted" and answer was "LENT". i don't get it.

6:41 am

Atalante

anything that can live in a bog is amazingly adapted

6:41 am

Scrabbler

If you spot someone $10 then you lent it out?

6:41 am

hurshy

hmmm, could be

6:42 am

Atalante

sounds likely

6:43 am

hurshy

yes, i think that must be it! thanks scrabs!

6:43 am

Scrabbler

But I would not think of "lent" if the clue was "spotted."

6:43 am

hurshy

i was only thinking of leopards and of espying and couldn't see the connection

6:44 am

Atalante

kind of PB hurshy :P

6:44 am

hurshy

yeah, i got it from the downs and the site took it so i knew it was correct but i was mystified. you have set my mind at ease.

6:44 am

Scrabbler

The multiple meanings of crossword clues is what is challenging. Sneaky wording.

6:45 am

hurshy

no lent... no leopard... no espy... what did i say?

6:45 am

Atalante

yes, but sometimes clues are *clever* and sometimes they are silly

6:45 am

Atalante

leo****! ;)

6:45 am

JenMO16

hi all, can i buy a vowel please?

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Well, out first H1N1 patient was admitted to the hospital overnight---pneumonia and white cell count = 31k!

6:45 am

hurshy

that is sooooo unrelated you goose, LOL

6:46 am

Atalante

not unrelated! pa4 is a short form / poetic form of leo***8!

6:46 am

Scrabbler

Hi Jen

6:46 am

hurshy

grids with few vowels are the best. there's only so many ways you can go, so not as much monkeying.

6:46 am

Scrabbler

I did not know that, Ata, and would not have tried pa4

6:46 am

hurshy

well i never heard of that - i only knew it as a word used in westerns for a buddy.

6:46 am

Wolvie

good morning babblers. :-)

6:46 am

Atalante

Kipling liked using it

6:46 am

Scrabbler

Hi Wolvie

6:46 am

Atalante

I've never known it as anything else :P

6:46 am

hurshy

howdy, pa4!

6:47 am

hurshy

kipling again! hmph.

6:47 am

JenMO16

here we go, now i am getting it

6:47 am

Atalante

isnt that pa**ner?

6:47 am

Wolvie

i sign on to a great clue - ty ata

6:47 am

hurshy

yes but pa4 is the short form :)

6:47 am

Wolvie

i see the duke hitchin up his pants now... ;-0

6:47 am

Atalante

ah! never knew that

6:48 am

hurshy

so i guess if you're in the west and you see a big cat of that ilk, you could say, howdy, leo****ner!

6:49 am

Atalante

Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pa4,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth.

6:49 am

Atalante

yep!!

6:49 am

hurshy

well, that will help me if i ever read kipling or other poems with that in it. otherwise i would have been like, "a-what's that now?"

6:49 am

Scrabbler

new word from hursh

6:50 am

Atalante

new meanings for everyone :)

6:51 am

hurshy

yes, and though i'd like to stay here doing these kinds of word things all day, i have to instead get to work and deal with people who are very pedantic about words. blah. see you all later!!

6:51 am

Wolvie

6:54 am

Scrabbler

Billy lost his battle with testicular cancer at age 42. I know his sister.

6:54 am

6:55 am

crosshair

6:56 am

crosshair

6:56 am

Scrabbler

I hear from former co-workers that Richard is not coping well with this sick season.

6:56 am

Wolvie

at least you don't have to cope with him thru all of this scrabs

6:56 am

Atalante

i'm sure you're totally not secretly amused by that

6:56 am

Scrabbler

No, for which I am so grateful!

6:57 am

crosshair

ask those working with richard to set you up with steraming video;))

6:57 am

Wolvie

cool beans crossy

6:57 am

Scrabbler

I am openly amused to hear horror stories about my former work place. It reminds me that I made the right decision to escape.

6:57 am

crosshair

and we cant even get bradly a flu shot till wed:(

6:58 am

Scrabbler

The flu vaccination process this season is a public health failure!

6:58 am

crosshair

all our clinics are rolling now;)

7:00 am

crosshair

but with a 10-15 day working time for the shot,it may be too late;/

7:01 am

Scrabbler

It is too late for the H1N1 vaccine for a majority of school/college kids--should have been vaccinated in August.

7:01 am

Wolvie

male fish sirens - not in the grid often. ;-)

7:02 am

crosshair

7:05 am

Scrabbler

On the first day of creation, God created the cat.

On the second day, God created man to serve the cat.

On the third, God created all the animals of the
earth to serve as potential food for the cat.

On the fourth day, God created honest toil so that
man could labor for the good of the cat.

On the fifth day, God created the sparkle ball so
that the cat might or might not play with it.

On the sixth day, God created veterinary science
to keep the cat healthy and the man broke.

On the seventh day, God tried to rest, but he had
to scoop the litterbox.

7:05 am

7:08 am

Scrabbler

So exciting, Dan! I am wishing good health, pregnancy, labor + delivery for Melanie + baby! make sure Mel gets the H1N1 vaccine. Pregnant women are particularly at risk for severe illness from this virus.
