Lotta Hitschmanova, CC (November 28, 1909 - September 1, 1990) was a Canadian humanitarian. In 1945, she helped to found USC Canada as the Unitarian Service Committee of Canada. USC Canada is an international development organization that started as a small group of aid workers sending supplies to war-torn Europe for relief and reconstruction.
So I didn't get the name quite right -- there's more in Wikipedia

Attired in an army nurse's uniform and military-style hat, she travelled yearly to strife-torn and poverty-stricken parts of the world searching out towns and villages in need of Canadian assistance to recover from drought, war, disease and poverty.

But I am moving along---found 72 so far.

6:10 am

Scrabbler

*wondering if I have cooties*

6:13 am

Scrabbler

ps

6:13 am

Scrabbler

I did shower

6:15 am

Scrabbler

I passed halfway!

6:15 am

inge

Scrabbler, I just arrived

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Go Scrabbler go!

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Guten Morgen, Freundin Inge! Wie geht es heute?

6:16 am

Scrabbler

I have been wondering where my Babble buddies are.

6:16 am

inge

just got up, not really functioning yet

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Me too, so I do Babble first thing every morning.

6:17 am

inge

cant believe you and I are the only ones onaboard

6:17 am

Scrabbler

The lurkers are here, I know it, but no one wanted to talk with me. :-(

6:18 am

Scrabbler

What are your plans for the weekend? I have to work from 8:30---done seeing sick kids, which I hope is not after 12 or 1. Then I am on call all weekend.

6:18 am

inge

sI usually dont talk when I am looking for words. Mistakes you know

6:19 am

blueheron

I just got here, hello everyone

6:19 am

inge

I am doing my stollen baking today.

6:19 am

Scrabbler

You don't use Babble Expert?

6:19 am

inge

hi blue

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi Blueheron! I saw a blue heron the other day--beautiful birds.

6:19 am

blueheron

stollen! yummy

6:20 am

inge

I switch to expert halfway through. Start regular, so I am not tempted

6:20 am

Scrabbler

tempted to chat or tempted to use the list?

6:21 am

inge

tempted to use list, following by looking up words, etc

6:21 am

Scrabbler

It is interesting to learn how Babblers approach the word search.

6:21 am

blueheron

Ours are gone now. We had our first snow yestterday.

6:22 am

Scrabbler

It snowed most of yesterday but did not stick--ground is still too warm.

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Where do you live, blueheron?

6:23 am

inge

no snow here yet this year

6:24 am

Scrabbler

It has snowed on 4 separate days here so far. Last year the ski resort across the valley had opened.

6:25 am

Anniebrook

hello everyone

6:27 am

inge

hi Anniie, I am under water

6:27 am

inge

swat

6:28 am

MonkeyGames

Hi folks, just have a second before Walter is done with his lunch and we go up for a shower, but thought I'd say hello.

6:28 am

Anniebrook

Inge, Under water and babbling? You are wonderful.

6:28 am

Anniebrook

Hi MG, nice to see you. How is Walter's leg?

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Hi Annie + MG! MG, I just commented on FB.

6:29 am

MonkeyGames

He's hav8ing cramps and twinges, but since night before last hasn't had any of the really nasty pain.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Annie, I met your grandson Jack last evening. How old is he?

6:29 am

MonkeyGames

OK, Scrabbs, I'll glance over there!

6:30 am

Anniebrook

Hi Scrabbs! Jack is 11. Glad to see he was babbling.

6:30 am

MonkeyGames

Aww, thanks. Yes, people are shocked by the whole thing too, because they assume he fell or something but when they realize how bad it COULD have been they get really emotional and give him snacks and cards and now money.

6:30 am

MonkeyGames

BRB

6:32 am

MonkeyGames

RB

6:32 am

Anniebrook

I had my foyer and the hallway painted yesterday. The painter came at 9 am and left at 10 pm. He did a great job and later I will put everything back but I am worn out. You would think I was the one who did the painting.

6:33 am

MonkeyGames

What color did you go with?

6:33 am

Anniebrook

White and taupe.

6:33 am

Scrabbler

MG, yes, it could have been SO much worse for Walter.

6:34 am

MonkeyGames

I know. This is a nasty, nasty break but it's a leg. He was hit by a car. I know how lucky he is to be alive, and then there's all the gradients of worse between broken leg and killed... I shudder to think about it.

6:35 am

Scrabbler

Me too, when I think about car vs little body.

6:36 am

Anniebrook

MG, My goodness. Lucky little boy. Thank God it was not worse. I hope he heals quickly.

6:36 am

MonkeyGames

It was a seriously HUGE car too. Hang on, I'll try to find a link to one.

6:36 am

Merk

Good morning

6:36 am

Anniebrook

good morning, merk

6:37 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks, Annie. This will be a hard road for him but he seems over the worst of the trauma and maybe the worst of the post-op pain. It's going in the good direction, anyway, to loosely translate a Dutch saying.

6:39 am

MonkeyGames

It was a lot like this one http://www.theautochannel.com/news/200
7/10/25/068666.1-lg.jpg

6:41 am

Anniebrook

MG, I dont know how to bring up that image. To me a little boy and a car meeting is a frightening thought.

6:41 am

Scrabbler

I am surprised his lower leg took the brunt and not a higher part of his body.

6:42 am

MonkeyGames

Yes. I still get the shakes about it after more than a week. I didn't see it happen, but a couple of the kids who did are still having nightmares. It happened right infront of his school as all the kids were going in.

6:42 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, Was Jack looking for me?

6:43 am

MonkeyGames

Me too, Scrabbs, but one of the witnesses says he actually got his leg between the back wheel and the edge of the wheel well.

6:43 am

Anniebrook

MG, Is Walter home?

6:45 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, since Monday. I stayed in the hospital with him for the 5 days.

6:45 am

Scrabbler

No, Annie, Jack was looking for clues, but yesterday's grid was very tough, I told him.

6:45 am

MonkeyGames

OK, he's tired and staging a tantrum about his lunch. I need to go get him through this and then into the shower. Have fun, folks!

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Bye MG

6:46 am

Anniebrook

MG, Give Walter a hug from me. Bye.

6:47 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, I am glad that Jack likes to babble. He was at his aunts house for Thanksgiving with the entire Bayer clan. I was going to go but the painter said he could come and do the paint job in one day so I stayed home. I hope Jack was polite.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

He was polite. It was cute, because he asked us if we knew his grandmother Annie.

6:50 am

Brookie

Hello everyone!

6:50 am

blueheron

Hey scrabbs. my computer went down. Sorry to interrupt our conversation. I live in New Hampshire

6:51 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, He is a polite little boy. I will find out later how many words he was able to find.

6:51 am

Anniebrook

Hello Brookie

6:51 am

Brookie

Hi Annie!

6:51 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, How are the children that are in my prayers?

6:53 am

Scrabbler

Hi Brooke. Oh, no, Blueheron--computer problems are so aggravating!

6:53 am

Brookie

Hi Scrabbs!

6:54 am

blueheron

It's the satellite, too much cloud cover.

6:54 am

Scrabbler

Annie, with my new job I no longer care for Ben, Sabrina + Timmy. But please pray for Andrew, Owen + Lexi.

6:55 am

blueheron

so how do you take care of your house bunnies?

6:55 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs, What a misery that children get so ill. I will add the children.

6:55 am

Scrabbler

Just pray for all kids with cancer. The world of pediatric oncology is full of such suffering for the children and their families.

6:56 am

Anniebrook

I will, Scrabbs.

6:56 am

Anniebrook

I am crying.

6:58 am

Scrabbler

I follow updates on several kids on Caring Bridge, and it is full of hope and despair for these families.

6:58 am

blueheron

that's so sad scrabbs.

7:00 am

Scrabbler

It is sad, and incomprehensible.

7:01 am

Scrabbler

Well, Babble buddies, I must get ready for work now. I shall return this afternoon. I must go see kiddoes in the office for a few hrs. I hope their are no realy sick ones.

7:01 am

Anniebrook

Bye Scrabbs, Have an easy day.

heya brookie

7:24 am

Brookie

Not bad. Easier than yesterday.

7:25 am

jacq

yesterdays was challenging

7:26 am

Brookie

Yes, there were lots of words I didn't know existed!

7:28 am

jacq

there have been a few like that this week though

7:29 am

Brookie

True. But normally I stop halfway through the puzzle, so I tend to limit myself to words I automatically see. Yesterday, I had an opportunity to complete the puzzle.

7:30 am

jacq

always a good feeling when you finish

7:30 am

It had been forever since I had seen "fireworks"!

jack, do you find the grid hard or easy to find words?

7:53 am

jacko9820

easy

7:54 am

good for you, you smart kid!

7:58 am

it's not too shabby this grid, down to 63 already

7:59 am

Anniebrook

7:59 am

jacq

hello jacko, nice to meet you

8:00 am

8:00 am

jacko9820

8:00 am

Dorens

Jacko how old are you? (i'm sure everyone always asks that)

8:01 am

jacko9820

i am 11 years old

8:01 am

Brookie

Jacko, you're an inspiration!

8:01 am

Dorens

a great age to start playing... and today's grid will be good for you, but some of the words in here will definitely seem to you like they were made up (they do to us)

8:01 am

jacko9820

thanks brookie

8:01 am

jacq

and you're a very polite young man, a credit to your family jacko

8:02 am

8:02 am

jacko9820

8:05 am

Dorens

ok, didn't mean to ask an inappropriate question.... just wondering annie, do you get to see him often?

8:07 am

Anniebrook

dorens, jack has been warned about the internet so he plays it safe and answer no personal questions. They do not live in New York and I get to see them about every other month.

8:07 am

Anniebrook

*answers

8:07 am

Brookie

Hi TO!

8:08 am

Anniebrook

Hi Owl!

8:08 am

Dorens

yes, I totally understand. In fact last time I thought of asking, but decided he probably might not answer (age and location), but was just wondering in terms of his seeing grandma. nice way for you to visit with him then, on internet.
hi owl, all well?

8:08 am

Anniebrook

dorens, I need a proofreader.

8:09 am

Anniebrook

Levi is adorable.

8:09 am

Anniebrook

Levi is adorable.

8:09 am

Dorens

i often have typos in chat annie, and as long as we know what we mean, i think we are okay. We know that we are all literate highly verbal people, and if we didn't know words and their spelling we wouldn't be on this site.

8:09 am

Dorens

thanks. i could just eat him up

8:10 am

Anniebrook

jack, Does Dylan ever babble?

8:11 am

8:14 am

EspritdJean

there was another huge baby like that a couple of months ago

8:14 am

EspritdJean

showed a pic of him in the hospital nursery looking at a much tinier baby to his left and thinking "mmmm burrito"

8:14 am

JBV

it's a sign of something not right

8:15 am

EspritdJean

most likely diabietic mom

8:15 am

9:49 am

jmcnrick

gotta go get ready for my sunday school class and then off to the babble meet up!

9:49 am

Trifioso

I was wicked upset when I first read it, as it is beyond insulting, but then I realized that it is not a final thing, it's just the first grenade, so I calmed down. I don't have to accept it, and I am not going to, but will counter with what I want, and we go from there. That's how I assume it works, anyway....

9:49 am

Minveryork

Hello Gail! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

9:50 am

Atalante

ohhh *that* kind of offer :(

9:50 am

Minveryork

Oh, where is that Babble meeting this time jmcnrick?

9:50 am

jmcnrick

if the offer is insulting make an insulting counter offer

9:50 am

Trifioso

LOL! okay, will put that on list....

9:50 am

crosshair

know what i do with all that junk mail and crap offers? i save all the pre-paid postage envelopes they give you and i mail them each other junk.not only does it ease my recycle bin,it keeps our postal workers employed in these days of e-mail;))

9:50 am

Trifioso

by the time I got to "20% of christmas bonus each year" I was actually laughing, so that is probably a good sign

9:51 am

jmcnrick

DO NOT counter with what you want -- counter with what you want with whipped cream and a cherry on top

9:51 am

Trifioso

crossy, I have done that too!

9:51 am

Trifioso

okay, jmc I will!

9:51 am

Gail

I am doing very well, and I love your Ed Harris birthday post. I do love him.

9:51 am

Atalante

*is listening carefully cos this will apply to me soon too*

9:51 am

jmcnrick

9:51 am

jmcnrick

you too ata

9:52 am

jmcnrick

9:52 am

Trifioso

crossy, you can also put fish weights, bricks, whatever in their postage paid envelopes, and they have to pay the postage on whatever you send back

9:52 am

jmcnrick

*poof*

9:52 am

Minveryork

I like Ed Harris too. I think he's underappreciated as an actor.I'm not sure if he has ever won any Awards.

9:52 am

crosshair

9:52 am

Minveryork

Goodbye jmcnrick! I will see you tomorrow in the log!

9:52 am

harpjane

good morning

9:52 am

Atalante

Ed Harris is wonderful

9:53 am

Trifioso

I might, jmc, or I might just meditate and pray more on this one, and see where god leads me, and how god wants me to respond. it has to end sometime, and I want to make sure I am making good decisions, based on what the children and I need, and not just responding out of anger, fear, or spite

9:53 am

Trifioso

Ata, I am sorry to read that.....

9:53 am

Minveryork

Hi harpjane! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

9:53 am

crosshair

ewww.that kind of junk mail....

9:54 am

Trifioso

indeed, crossy, indeed. oh hey - by the way - I watched the nursery age kids last week during sunday service, and one of the little ones made me a cup of tea in the play kitchen - with a slice of play kitchen bacon in it!!! I thought of you immediately, and smiled

9:55 am

crosshair

do what jmc said then,counter with 50% more than you think you need and a cherry on top

9:55 am

Minveryork

Ed Harris won a Golden Globe for The Truman Show & SAG Award for Appollo13.Had many other nominations

9:55 am

crosshair

bacon!:))

9:56 am

Trifioso

Min, I think ed harris doesn't seek out public attention- he just wants to do his job, and he doesnt do the party scene or that kind of thing. melts my butter though, I tell you!!! (with great respect to his wife Amy, just in case she is lurking!)

9:56 am

crosshair

10:21 am

Nef

LOL, crossy. I can fix meals and get them on the talbe in less than 45 minutes; they are usually quite tastt; but I can never make the same thing twice. My kids used to joke th** dinner was ready when the smoke detector sounded though

10:21 am

crosshair

10:21 am

hego

That's very funny Ata. Not for you of course.

10:22 am

Atalante

My God Scrabbler - all I did what get my hair cut - I feel so inadequate! :)

ho 6/27 is the 4,5 + adverbial ending

1:40 pm

Scrabbler

No, the premie is 8 mo old, but a former premie with chronic lung disease.

1:41 pm

bichon

Double yikes, that sounds bad.

1:41 pm

Joanne123

scrabs i don't know how you people do it

1:41 pm

Joanne123

specially the mental part of it

1:41 pm

Scrabbler

I just do what I need to do and stay calm.

Someone needs to stay calm. The parents probably aren't

1:42 pm

Joanne123

1:43 pm

Scrabbler

Check labels, bichon.

1:43 pm

Soodle

1:43 pm

Joanne123

bichon

Think of et*** Mertz, but different second vowel

1:44 pm

bichon

She has two epi pens, but I'm always afraid I'll forget where they are

1:44 pm

Joanne123

1:45 pm

Joanne123

i kept telling them to stop,someone's gonna get hurt

1:45 pm

bichon

Gotta go, Biscuit is holding his legs together. Bye

1:47 pm

Joanne123

balling my eyes out

1:47 pm

Scrabbler

Yep, Ata...my mother is interrogating me now.

1:47 pm

Joanne123

she says"mommy,why are you crying,i'm the one that hurt myself!!

1:47 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Lot's of stuff going on here!

1:48 pm

Atalante

if a dr doesn't treat a patient due to his worry about the outcome of whatever he tries, is that officially malpractice or something?

1:48 pm

Joanne123

again scrabs lol

1:48 pm

Joanne123

she is very needy yes?

1:48 pm

Enomis65

kaplan: when you receve guests you are a ho** + don't go post** over such a small matter...

1:50 pm

Scrabbler

It depends on the situation, Ata...

1:50 pm

Joanne123

ho45 and stick to top right and sometimes vowel

1:51 pm

Atalante

sister, as you can imagine :P her surgeon is ignoring her emails and now ignoring her GP's emails and calls. We know perfectly well why he's doing it, he doesn't want to kill her on the op table, but it's beyond a joke now

1:51 pm

Joanne123

did you get it yet kap

1:51 pm

Atalante

and I'm trying to write him a letter to explain this. Just from a different name so he won't hide when he sees a letter from sister!

1:51 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I'm monkey typing like crazy but this one eludes me

1:52 pm

jillibus

kaplan -- ho 6 /21 is the plural of the plant before it

1:52 pm

Kaplan the Magne

D-uh

1:52 pm

Scrabbler

That is negligence, Ata..not providing proper care. The doc can withdraw from case but after letter to patient and 30 days....rule here

1:52 pm

Atalante

and I'm trying to keep it very dry and factual, rather than get emotional

1:52 pm

Joanne123

the ho4 with the most stick letter and sometimes vowel

1:52 pm

Kaplan the Magne

How could I not see that?

1:53 pm

Atalante

is there anywhere where negligence rules are accessible? or it is always case-by-case?

1:53 pm

Enomis65

you're bablind kap! It happens when we monkey too much!

1:53 pm

jillibus

joanne, you and the others have been clueing ho6/27

1:53 pm

wildcat17

ata is there a medical review board in your city/country who you could call?

1:53 pm

Joanne123

omg lol but i did clue the other too

1:54 pm

Scrabbler

Ata, there are laws in each area

1:54 pm

Soodle

Whats the stick letter?

1:54 pm

jillibus

the "go post**" clue doesn't work

1:54 pm

Joanne123

l

1:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

the first th5- but I feel if I have to ask for help with all the ones I have left, then it's not really kosher

1:55 pm

Atalante

probably, wildcat, but I'm trying to get a vague understanding of the situation first, so I can ask intelligent questions later!

1:55 pm

Soodle

Thanks! I never knew that!

1:55 pm

wildcat17

it's the same as using the list kap ... don't worry

1:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

And the go post** clue was off

1:55 pm

Joanne123

th is like a beer mug

1:55 pm

jillibus

soodle, the "stick letter" is and L. We prefer not to clue with sticks, snakes, chairs, humps, etc, lol!

1:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

You mean I won't be cited on an ethics charge?

1:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have 10 left. See ya latter

1:56 pm

jillibus

we all live and learn, joanne :)

1:57 pm

jillibus

I know you did, but it was the wrong word, lol!

1:57 pm

wildcat17

it's a valid question - you're not expected to know all the laws about this situation. does the dr really not want to treat her or does he just not know what to do?

1:57 pm

Joanne123

serious i don't even know what half these words mean..and i am giving myself credit there lol

1:57 pm

Soodle

Well, now I know!!

1:58 pm

jillibus

Anyway, HI ALL!!!

1:58 pm

Joanne123

hi jill

1:58 pm

Soodle

Hiya Jilli

1:59 pm

Joanne123

thank god us women have good memories for weird words

1:59 pm

Atalante

the problem is that whatever he does is probably going to be life-threatening at best. That includes not doing anything, as well. He doesn't want to put her through any more than she's been through. It's an impossible situation, but he's nothelping

1:59 pm

jillibus

nobody knows what half those words mean, lol! But there's that ? beside the word which will tell you (most of the time)

1:59 pm

Enomis65

last lo 5,18?

2:00 pm

wildcat17

so sorry ata ... it sounds like it's a tough situation any way you look at it

2:00 pm

jillibus

you mean lo 6/18 ? It's the plural of the previous word

2:00 pm

Atalante

oh it is, it's impossible

2:01 pm

Enomis65

no it's the previous word that I need :)

2:01 pm

2:12 pm

2:12 pm

periwinkle

got it from your earlier clue, jilli, thanks

2:13 pm

jillibus

oh yes -- nan and someone else (not ruru I think) were almost in a tie. Those speedsters just have to be overlooked for sanity's sake.

2:14 pm

jillibus

yw peri -- didn't know it was still alive ;)

2:14 pm

Bugsaw

I find I don't find words as well at the end of a long day and like to save some for the following evening.

I have many more Bugsaw... but do not want to bore you all to death with the real words!

2:21 pm

Enomis65

I know you guys are purist in your babble approach... LOL

2:21 pm

Enomis65

((switching from boxes very carefully to avoid typing real words...)))

2:22 pm

jillibus

Eno, do you have a Mac or a PC?

2:22 pm

Soodle

Ahem - No Purists here, Eco! Feel free to clue to your hearts content!!

2:22 pm

Bugsaw

I do it all the time too. In fact I spend quite a bit of tme in the PB if I try to chat and search for words at the same time. Some people seem to be able do it and make quilts at the same time!

2:22 pm

Enomis65

Mac why?

2:23 pm

jillibus

because if you had a PC you could get Babble Expert, but nm -- no good with a Mac :(

2:24 pm

periwinkle

20 left, bbs

2:24 pm

Enomis65

I know!!!! I used to have a pc and I miss Babble Expert so much...

2:24 pm

jillibus

bugs -- do YOU have a Mac?

2:24 pm

Enomis65

so uch easier

2:24 pm

Enomis65

much

2:24 pm

Bugsaw

No, a PC

2:25 pm

jillibus

I hate to tell you, but I won't get a Mac for that very reason -- talk about Babbladdiction!

2:25 pm

Enomis65

1st th5?

2:25 pm

Bugsaw

somehow it lets me fail tho

2:26 pm

jillibus

Well, bugs, you can get Expert for free if you email Lickety and ask him to send you the link

2:26 pm

Enomis65

grumble grumble I want my Babble expert back... but would never go back to a pc :)

2:27 pm

Bugsaw

I am using it. I like the word list on the same page as the clues but it has so many parts I am sure I don't use them all

2:27 pm

LuvWordGames

th 5/12 rhymes with beer mug-st***

2:27 pm

jillibus

Don't you use Lickety Add?

2:27 pm

Bugsaw

Nope. Never clicked on it

2:28 pm

Bugsaw

What does it do?

2:28 pm

Enomis65

ty luv

2:29 pm

jillibus

OOH!!!! You MUST! That's the main feature! If you type one word into Lickety Add it goes to the word list and to Lickety's list automatically. If you type more than one word it goes to the chat.

2:30 pm

Bugsaw

so I don't have to move the cursor all the time? That sounds too good to be true

2:30 pm

jillibus

Just try it!

2:30 pm

Bugsaw

I will try it out right now so if a word shows up in the chog, it was an honest mistake in the name of science.....

2:31 pm

Enomis65

1st th 5,12? I am fading fast I think 17 left

2:31 pm

Enomis65

Can I use that excuse too Bug?

2:32 pm

Bugsaw

sounds good to me Eno!

2:32 pm

Bugsaw

It worked and sent my message to the right place

2:32 pm

jillibus

I have 32 left but have to go and get lunch -- bridge date this aft.

2:32 pm

Enomis65

2:32 pm

jillibus

Now yer talkin', bugsy!

2:33 pm

Enomis65

anybody can clue the 1st th 5,12?

2:33 pm

Bugsaw

thanks jilli. I hope you have fun today.

2:33 pm

LuvWordGames

Enomis, the beer mug clue was the first th 5/12, there's a th 5/14 before that but i don't have it

2:34 pm

jillibus

bugs, just one thing about Lickety Add -- it you want to send a one-word message to the chog, you have to hit Ctrl + Enter. There are instructions around the box, as you can see.

2:34 pm

Enomis65

the th 5, 14 rhymes with not cold but w***

2:34 pm

Enomis65

does not get the beer mug clue...

2:35 pm

jillibus

eno, try th + German for one

2:36 pm

Bugsaw

I like how the whole box goes green if I am right and sends it to the list all at once, and how it goes red if I am wrong and blue when I send a message

2:36 pm

jillibus

And now I must go! Bye all! Happy Babbling!

2:36 pm

Enomis65

Of course! I thought the st word was straw...

2:36 pm

jillibus

and bugs, it goes yellow if you've already entered the word

2:37 pm

Enomis65

stop brgging Bugs - some MAC people are jealous ;)

2:37 pm

Bugsaw

Sorry, not trying to brag. Just ashamed I did not know it did this!

2:37 pm

Bugsaw

being quiet now....

2:38 pm

Enomis65

Brag all you want, it is such a neat app

2:38 pm

jillibus

Resources is worth clicking on too -- you can get to Morewords that way ;)

2:39 pm

jillibus

The Icon Themes part is out of date -- Lickety built this a couple of years ago.

2:39 pm

Bugsaw

Morewords is the same as Licketys list isn't it?

2:39 pm

Enomis65

done with the Ts... 13 left

2:40 pm

Bugsaw

yes, I had tried the themes box before

2:40 pm

jillibus

Not at all, bugs -- it lists words by length and alphabet

2:40 pm

Bugsaw

i must play with that part too then. thanks jilli. you have been a wealth of knowledge today!

2:41 pm

Enomis65

Done with the Os..

hey Judy! how was your turkey day? nephew run you ragged?

9:37 pm

ruru, none ARE is a common error. And so is "there ARE a number of errors." You wouldn't say "There are a number."

9:37 pm

phandmd

so much to learn in Anatomy and Physiology

9:37 pm

jillibus

Hi judy

OWIE, Nef. the cortizone does help tho

rururocks

hmm you are probably right there professor

9:39 pm

jmcnrick

we were talkng about some time in early May

9:39 pm

stidmama

golly nef, sounds pretty extreme. I developed problems with ibuprofen this year, so my hip pain has been unmedicated for several months (the things that don't cause problems don't work) -- at least the hip itself is improving or I would be a basket case.

long story short, you have my empathy

9:39 pm

rururocks

...darn...

9:40 pm

stidmama

and cortisone injection did help the hip this summer.

9:40 pm

CiociaJudy

wonderful, JMC

9:40 pm

jillibus

Yes. lbd, if that was the sentence, but it wasn't. None = not one. So it's "Not one of the boys IS . . ."

9:40 pm

lbdawger

i'ts okay ru. i have to diagram those type of sentences to make sure i'm doing them right. it's a common mistake

9:40 pm

CiociaJudy

arthritis sucks!

9:41 pm
