2:37 am

grannyrose

2:37 am

grannyrose

ah, ruby, hello, hun

2:38 am

rubyfoo

not there and listen! granny

2:39 am

grannyrose

lol, ruby, how are you going with today's grid?

2:39 am

rubyfoo

did you get those two? just started, so don't know yet

2:40 am

jillibus

* * FIREWORKS * *

2:40 am

grannyrose

yes, ruby. i'll let you babble along. time to prepare the vegghies, will check ion and see how you are going, ok?

2:40 am

jillibus

hi ruby

2:40 am

grannyrose

WTG JILLI!!!

2:41 am

rubyfoo

hi jilli

2:41 am

rubyfoo

whet

2:41 am

rubyfoo

whoops, sorry

2:41 am

rubyfoo

still sleepy, is there coffee in the PB

2:41 am

grannyrose

it's a friendly grid, not many hidden surprises today. enjoy.

2:41 am

jillibus

starting at the bottom, are you, ruby?

2:42 am

rubyfoo

random at first, then I try to be more systematic

2:42 am

jillibus

We all have our little ways

2:43 am

rubyfoo

mine are still unformed....

2:44 am

jillibus

I try for nbt first, then I allow myself to go to Lickety, go through that once or twice (picking up clues from the chat), finally go to morewords.

2:45 am

jillibus

all of which is easier because I have Expert

2:45 am

rubyfoo

first I go through the chat, then random, then in rows, then get dressed (lol), still can't use the lists

2:45 am

rubyfoo

term

2:45 am

rubyfoo

sorry again

2:46 am

jillibus

why can't you use the list?

2:47 am

rubyfoo

can't figure it out and too impatient to take the time. I printed lickety's list once and then just sat and looked at it. so I struggle along but still make small improvements each day

2:48 am

jillibus

open Licketyin another window, shrink it sideways and put it next the the grid.

2:48 am

grannyrose

ruby, if you decrease the size of your babble screen , you can open lickety's list and have it running at the same time.

2:49 am

jillibus

and are you using a Mac or a PC?

2:49 am

rubyfoo

no kidding, I'll try that AFTER I get dressed

2:49 am

rubyfoo

PC

2:50 am

rumplestiltskin

Clue for the 2 wh7/48's please

2:50 am

jillibus

then you can get Expert, which puts everything on the ame page and had the great Lickety Add box, where if you type one word it goes to the word list and Lickety's automatically, and if you type more than one word it goes to the chat.

2:51 am

jillibus

the wh7s add to the wh5 before them

2:51 am

grannyrose

wh5/20 ( the second one ) + 2 letter words

2:53 am

grannyrose

add wh5's my h** ( thing you put on your he4, and ** and fro

2:53 am

jillibus

I have to go to bed -- granny, will you tell ruby how to get Expert when she gets back? (By emailing Lickety, I mean)

2:53 am

grannyrose

no prob, jilli. sleep well , hun

2:54 am

rubyfoo

thank you granny!!

2:54 am

rubyfoo

yoou are both very helpful and patient

2:54 am

grannyrose

Ah, there you are, ruby -- to get Expert, just email Lickety -- it's free and a lifesaver!

2:54 am

WTG RUMPLE!!!!!

3:01 am

lynxxx

Expert is a piece of s/w written by Lickety. Puts Babble and his clue list on same page, with buttons so that you can update both at same time - or send words back and forth easily. Many other features as well. Email Lickety for a copy.

SueMagee

No - I don't think there is.

6:05 am

o-o

I often question whether I am here, there, or anywhere.

6:08 am

SueMagee

Do we exist if we only lurk?

6:09 am

o-o

I think so. But then, I think "lurk" is an unnecessary pejorative.

6:10 am

SueMagee

Or possibly a comfort blanket of indulgence without engagement?

6:11 am

o-o

Babble is a game that does not require communication.

6:11 am

Soodle

OMG. I have just been indulging without engaging. And I didn't even realise it. Wow.

6:12 am

SueMagee

Sounds much better than 'lurking', doesn't it? It's almost decadent.

6:13 am

Soodle

I am enjoying it much more now.

6:13 am

SueMagee

Think of it as today's big achievement. I am.

6:23 am

SueMagee

bojazz

so8 - a babblism? right?

7:32 am

redturtlehead

I dont think so. more serious it the word...

7:33 am

bojazz

thought as babblism was a word that "took" but not in dictionary

7:33 am

redturtlehead

Oh I t may be, I am unaware of that term!

7:35 am

bojazz

i got the word - looked it up - so what gives, i'm thinking?? but, whatever - it worked

7:35 am

redturtlehead

indeed there is no definition! I guess that is a babblism.

7:35 am

mixi6

ty for the so8

redturtlehead

Oh no. I feel asleep watching the skating last night, so will have to watch the recap.

7:47 am

oodleberry

I'm doing ok... going off to church in a bit

7:47 am

redturtlehead

nice! I was feeling guilty this morning about my lack of church activities...

7:48 am

oodleberry

why how many do you do

7:49 am

mixi6

o for years oodle.

7:49 am

redturtlehead

I have not been in Church in forever, its really far away, so thats my excuse... but it is just an excuse.

7:49 am

oodleberry

what mix?

7:50 am

oodleberry

isn't there one closer where you could go?

7:50 am

kje

hola mi amigas

7:50 am

redturtlehead

Hi kje, tomorro is the big day!

7:50 am

mixi6

My husband works till midnight and gets sometimes by the crack of noon. a little late for church.

7:51 am

mixi6

excuses, excuses.

7:51 am

redturtlehead

there isn't oodle, thats the odd problem with being A "Quaker" or a Friend. there arent many churches. But I could just GO to the methodist church or something.

7:51 am

kje

I am trying to be realistic, red... the family will get the dog. I will likely end up having to buy one since people have gotten insane about adopting them

7:52 am

Joanne123

i don't go to church and i'm catholic

7:52 am

redturtlehead

Well, kje, if you look around a bit and let people know, you can probably find a sweet puppy, but maybe the family wont get the pup!

7:53 am

redturtlehead

I often see pups for adoption on the hospitals classified web site, I imagine your hospital has one too...

7:53 am

Joanne123

aww kje u didn't get him??

7:53 am

oodleberry

ok gotta catch the bus... later folks

7:54 am

Joanne123

byee oodle

7:54 am

redturtlehead

bye Oodle, happy worshipping.

7:54 am

mixi6

bye oodle.

7:55 am

kje

I don't think the hospital has such a thing

7:55 am

redturtlehead

I imagine it does kje, everywhere I have worked has one...ask someone.

7:57 am

kje

k

7:57 am

redturtlehead

but if you ask around you will find something, but first maybe tomorro you may be home with your sweet girl...

7:58 am

redturtlehead

Ahhh I have NBT, how nice.

8:00 am

redturtlehead

taking break!

8:01 am

mixi6

NBT at 113.

8:04 am

Atalante

kje, with doggy adoptions you *have* to think that you'll get the dog who is yours. If a dog you love goes elsewhere, then he/she wasn't *your* dog

8:10 am

Uneaixoise

and it's Roddick in 5 sets!! He's on to the quarterfinals vs. Cilic

8:10 am

Uneaixoise

and Rafa plays Andy Murray tomorrow -- what a match!!!!!

8:11 am

bojazz

go Rafa!

8:12 am

Atalante

oooooo that'll be interesting

8:12 am

Uneaixoise

indeed!!!!

8:12 am

mixi6

go Roger

8:12 am

Uneaixoise

:-D

8:12 am

kje

whatev, ata... the point that is annoying to me were the comments about how pets are better off with a "real" family with kids.... I just don't like having to be subject to the decisions of people who can make up rules as they go... any other dog, they usually just let go to whoever shows up first, but they received a couple phone calls on this one b/c my friend posted her on FB... so now, they are going to collect applications and "make the best decision" as they see it. I just don't like the arbitrariness of how they change up the rules

8:12 am

Atalante

especially now Andy is actually technically as good as Rafa and Federer, just. He just doesn't have the confidence / track record

8:12 am

movieman

Go Andy!!!!!!

8:13 am

kje

if more people show up Monday to look at her, I expect they will continue to hold her... they are just in over their head in a situation they don't usually have to deal with

8:13 am

Uneaixoise

MM, did you watch his match that just finished? fabbo!!

8:14 am

bojazz

did not watch - listened from other room - not a fan of Roddick's

8:15 am

movieman

No, I'm waiting for the Murray-Nadal match on the morrow

8:15 am

Uneaixoise

oh, but bojazz, Roddick's doing soooo well -- such control -- I well remember when he was a major hothead on court!

8:15 am

Atalante

whatever, kje. Just trying to cheer you a bit. Sorry.

8:16 am

Joanne123

atal that was nice..you are right

8:17 am

Joanne123

unfortunatley

8:17 am

kje

thanks ata

8:17 am

Atalante

so many shelters make rules up as they are going along. but yes, I would be fuming at the pet beinghappier in a "proper family" thing. Fuming.

8:18 am

Joanne123

it's sad

8:18 am

Uneaixoise

indeed, kje ;-(

8:19 am

Joanne123

but they don't really know the home the dog is going to

8:19 am

Joanne123

god i hate talking about poor dogs in shelters

8:19 am

kje

just hit a raw nerve... being single sometimes sucks for different reasons, but there is a certain amount of discrimination at times I have gotten use to... like working more holidays at work b/c people with kids should be with their kids, etc... which I am happy to do in some ways, but I just don't like the assumptions behind it. The lady at the shelter just made the comment at a bad time

8:20 am

Atalante

not surprised. Especially as some pets will be *much* happier with 1 person, in a quiet house, WITHOUT kids

8:20 am

hootowl

No dog would prefer a home with kids! Hi everyone

8:21 am

Joanne123

having a dog has nothing to do with having a spouse

8:21 am

Joanne123

hi hoot

8:21 am

kje

yes, this is a very sweet dog... maybe she'd rather not have the potential terrorization that can come with a 9 year old boy - LOL

8:21 am

bojazz

i guve Roddick his due - can play the game, no doubt. just don't care for his demeanor. saw an interview once - really does "love" Andy

8:21 am

Joanne123

it isn't the dog having the kids... it's the kids having the dog

8:21 am

hootowl

At least your shelter has people who care about the animals. Memphis is once more distinguished for screwing tjings up!

8:22 am

Atalante

hopefully they just have enough sense to truly think of the best for the dog

8:22 am

Joanne123

kje i think you would make an awesome owner of that cute puppy

8:23 am

hootowl

What kind is it kje?

8:23 am

kje

a mutt...

8:23 am

Joanne123

if u weren't then u still wouldn't be talking about it!! you care

8:23 am

hootowl

Best kind.

8:23 am

Uneaixoise

bojazz, I got to see him at a benefit match here in Nashville -- he was really delightful . . . playful with the audience, very sweet to some kids who had won a chance to hit a few balls with him . . .

8:24 am

Joanne123

kje it's a golden lab isn't it??

8:24 am

Uneaixoise

they all have their "moments" -- I'm just really happy for his current success -- he's worked so hard for it

8:24 am

kje

mixture of lab, and likely some shepherd

8:25 am

bojazz

glad to hear that about Andy - that side has not been seen here

8:25 am

Brookie

Hello everyone!

8:25 am

Joanne123

Joanne123

hi brook

8:25 am

Hi Joanne!

8:25 am

kje

nah... don't want to keep seeing her for now... I get too attached

8:26 am

Atalante

*refresh* just changed my icon to a new pic of silly sily

8:26 am

hootowl

Sounds like a kid dog, and big enough (eventually) to fight back. But 9yo are just at the nasty stage

8:26 am

8:45 am

Atalante

she's a comedy cat, which would offend her greatly cos she thinks she's elegant and beautiful

8:45 am

Joanne123

8:46 am

kje

lol ata... well, we all likely have similar elusions

8:47 am

kje

I'm allergic to cats

8:47 am

Atalante

8:47 am

Joanne123

she was kitten when she came here and would sleep at our heads and purr

8:48 am

8:51 am

9:15 am

Wow! Where can you find them? Or do you make your own? (Very messy, I should imagine!)

9:17 am

Atalante

9:17 am

hydra

I got my raisins from H&B. I shall go in tomorrow and look for the bananas. Can't wait.

9:18 am

welki

fresh bananas coated with yoghurt? or dried?

9:18 am

Atalante

though people always seem to sell out of the bananas. Cos they're yummy lol

9:19 am

FMitch

Aloy has lots of dried bananas since her experiment last week.

9:19 am

Atalante

dried, coated with this stuff that's called yoghurt coating. Probably doesn't actually bear much relationship to yoghurt LOL

9:20 am

9:39 am

Oh thanks Ata, thats the one :)

9:48 am

bojazz

congrats hoot

9:48 am

welki

yes, but then if you DO get an early morning phone call, you won't receive it ... which may or may not be a good thing

9:48 am

hootowl

Plus - it was probably a mistake on their part.

9:49 am

FMitch

phone picks up fax info diverts it to fax, phone rings with phone call the caller can leave a message.

9:49 am

Atalante

marketing companies are evil here, hoot!

9:49 am

hootowl

Here they cannot call between 9am and 9pm

9:49 am

Atalante

you're clever :)

9:50 am

welki

ahhh, sophisticated little system :)

9:50 am

hootowl

9:50 am

hootowl

marketing companies are evil anywhere. AND collection agencies

9:51 am

bojazz

9:51 am

FMitch

I did work with telephony for a while but that was a time back.

9:51 am

Atalante

in theory, bojazz :P

9:51 am

FMitch

bo here in the UK if you register no UK call centre can contact you but the law allows centres outside the UK to call whatever.

9:52 am

bojazz

don't get them at home or at work

9:52 am

hootowl

Don't hold your breathe bo - we signed up twice and still get calls almost every day from a collection agency looking for someone we never heard of

9:52 am

hootowl

y say if we are not so-n-so to hang up but it doesn't do any good. Now cancel the call the instant id shows

9:53 am

FMitch

Thanks for letting me have a winge, am tired but must press on still have quite a bit to do today and the afternoon is passing.
Happy Babbling and see you soon!

once there was an island king who liked to have a different throne every month... he thought this showed off how great he was. a peasant man, wanting to win the king's favor, offered to take the used ones away. but he didn't know what to do with them. so he'd bring them to his thatched hut and store them in the attic where he would hang his vegetables to dry and so forth. then one night, he was horribly injured when the floor of the attic gave out from all the weight. he was taken to the hospital where the nurse admonished him, "people who live in grass houses shouldn't stow thrones".

So, hit us with a Chatt/Choo joke, ruby.

10:36 am

rubyfoo

the jokes went around in the 70's, all ending with puns like the line in the song, "Pardon my boy, is that the Chattanoogah Choo Choo?" I'll probably be able to hear the groans from Australi and the US all the way to France

10:37 am

Roy Rogers goes out for a ride in the brush wearing his brand-new fabulous boots. He is attacked by a wildcat who tears his boot to shreds. In a fit of pique, he shoots the cat, slings it over his saddle and rides back to the ranch. Dale Evans hears him coming and, standing on the porch says "Pardon me, Roy, is that the cat that chewed your new shoe?"

10:38 am

The big game hunter went to Africa looking for something special to hunt. The guide told him about the lions and rhinos, etc. He warned him not to shoot the foo bird. "I f you shoot the foo bird, every foo bird in the world will fly ove and crap all over you." T hunter did not believe this. Out hunting, he saw a weird bird and thought it must be the foo bird. Throwing caution, he shot and killed the bird. Instantaneously, all the foo birds in the world flew over and crapped all over him. He looked awful. The guide warned him not to wash it off or he would die. The hunter could not bear wearin that waste, so he showered and died. Moral: If the foo sh1ts, wear it!

once upon a time there were two clams, sam and fred, who were best friends. they did everything together. then sam died. fred was very lonely without his friend. one night, in a dream, he found himself with st. peter at the pearly gates. "God has seen how much you miss your friend, and has decided to let you visit him for a night here in heaven. Take this small harp with you as a visitor's pass and have it with you at all times, and be back here at dawn." fred was delighted and went in search of his buddy. he found him and discovered that his pal had opened a discotheque in heaven! he danced the night away, having a blast with his old friend. suddenly he noticed that dawn was approaching, so he said a hurried goodbye and rushed back to the pearly gates. he arrived just in time, but when he saw st. peter, he realized he'd forgotten his pass, and cried out, "oh no! i left my harp in sam clam's disco!"

Hi, Hego :)

11:37 am

crosshair

sometimes totally shutting down babble and restarting it works as well

11:37 am

Pinikula

also, check your settings to make sure "show profile" is marked in the upper righthand corner of the edit page

11:37 am

aebmusica

How do one refresh....? with liquid libation and munchies?

11:38 am

Nancy Boy

Sounds good, Aeb, but F5 will work just as well :)

11:38 am

crosshair

up in your tabs you will see a circular blue arrow

11:39 am

aebmusica

I have an Apple ...don't know how to use tabs

11:39 am

Pinikula

I like your thinking, musica...drinks with munchies!

11:40 am

crosshair

oh...mmm..ive heard people use those things still:))..sorry lol.just close babble and reopen it

11:40 am

Pinikula

(and check your account page - where you do the edits - to make sure "show profile" is marked)

Thanks Mom

Mom

thank you Scrabbler

11:54 am

aebmusica

ummmmm..with scones and clotted cream?

11:54 am

Scrabbler

It is a rainy, dark day here so no cross-country skiing or snowshoeing for a few days. We will have new snow Tues-Thurs--yay!

11:54 am

Scrabbler

I don't have those he4, aeb

11:55 am

aebmusica

too bad...but thanks for the tea.

11:55 am

Pinikula

what is "clotted cream"?

11:56 am

aebmusica

think whipped cream...Brit style...u put it on top of jam with ur scone.

11:56 am

aebmusica

i mean thick...not think

11:57 am

Atalante

but nicer. it's different. it has a crust.

11:57 am

Scrabbler

Yummy--whipped cream!

11:57 am

Pinikula

hmmmm, imagining

11:57 am

Scrabbler

Chocolate mousse---the ultimate comfort food! Hi Ata

11:58 am

Pinikula

I gotta confess...gimme a fresh baked warm crumpet with ricotta cheese and jam and I will have died and gone to heaven with each bite!

11:58 am

Scrabbler

I just passed halfway!

11:58 am

aebmusica

that's how the Brits get their "peaches and cream " complexions.

11:58 am

Mom

hI aTA

11:59 am

Atalante

and you can only ever have clotted cream over here. Do not let any American place con you into thinking you're eating clotted cream!!

12:00 pm

aebmusica

Alas...so true!

12:00 pm

Pinikula

I'll remember that, Ata! :)

12:00 pm

Scrabbler

How is it created?

12:01 pm

aebmusica

I don't know...but it is thicker than whipped cream.

12:01 pm

Atalante

you heat unpasteurised cow's milk and then leave it in shallow pans for several hours

12:02 pm

Atalante

and the cream all comes to the top and it's extra yummy

12:03 pm

Pinikula

sounds sorta like ricotta cheese

12:03 pm

Scrabbler

Interesting, Ata

12:03 pm

Atalante

no no tastes nothing like ricotta. tastes like extra rich thick cream

12:04 pm

Pinikula

well, the thickness of a creamy ricotta with the flavor of whipped cream?

12:04 pm

Pinikula

(I'm trying to narrow it down so my imagination doesn't wander too far)

12:04 pm

Atalante

yes, we can go for that :)

12:04 pm

aebmusica

and it's not fattening on Sundays!

12:05 pm

Atalante

and for some reason, I have never seen proper clotted cream in America

12:05 pm

Pinikula

nothing fattening on Sundays!

12:05 pm

Pinikula

gads...all this talk and I wish I could have a crumpet!!

12:05 pm

Pinikula

(I've never heard of it over here, ata)

12:06 pm

Atalante

you can get Devonshire cream, and ppl say it's the same, and it soooo ai't

12:07 pm

aebmusica

Maybe the Amish can make it?

12:07 pm

Atalante

oh - I wonder -

12:08 pm

Atalante

is it because you can't keep it for long / reconcstitute it / does it go against some health & safety thing?

12:08 pm

aebmusica

well, they do have unpasteurized milk

12:08 pm

Atalante

cos it's unpasteurised

12:08 pm

Atalante

hmmm true

12:09 pm

aebmusica

can u make it with sterilized milk

12:09 pm

Atalante

doubt it

Hi Harp, Scrabs has been skiing for much of the winter.

12:26 pm

Scrabbler

It was perfect yesterday--sunny, high 30's, no wind, packed powder snow. So we did 3 loops and each loop = 2.2 miles.

12:26 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Jane

12:27 pm

Scrabbler

I am not losing weight yet, despite my intense exercise and careful eating. Grrr.

12:28 pm

Atalante

that's so annoying!

12:29 pm

Scrabbler

I lost 2 lbs in the last 3 wks, but I want it to come off faster!

12:29 pm

harpjane

where are you skiing scrabb?

12:30 pm

harpjane

and sometimes you build muscle (which means losing inches!) without losing pounds!

12:30 pm

Atalante

well you know that's a perfectly sensible rate of weigth loss!

12:31 pm

harpjane

are there any oj or aj words?

12:32 pm

Back again

12:32 pm

I know that I am shrinking in size but I want to see results on the scale.

12:32 pm

Atalante

12:33 pm

hego

Scrabs you may be adding muscle with the intense exercise.

12:33 pm

Scrabbler

There is a county park nearby with groomed trails in the woods and a warming hut with a wood stove---wonderful place that I spend much of my winter.

12:34 pm

Scrabbler

I did 6.6 miles yesterday and felt fine after---my conditioning is improving.

12:36 pm

Soodle

Ta Pini - but like I said, I'm only starting. So, I need about 145 clues lol

1:51 pm

stidgmere

Sometimes it is just too soon to know where the difficulties lie in a grid. For me they are from corner to corner but I think others are much more adept.

Jayk

Harp--why did you want to know?

2:09 pm

lynxxx

Thanks Soodle - guess these old memory cells are dying - could have sworn it was that te6. We changed from Imperial to metric in 1972 so I have forgotten

2:10 pm

Soodle

No bother at all, Lynn. But, you could be fleeced this side of the world if you mixed them up!!

2:10 pm

lynxxx

!! not 1972 - 1964 - see, forgetting everything

2:10 pm

Pinikula

no doubt I'd be fleeced if I left the USA again

2:11 pm

harpjane

Well, we had a big collection in our Catholic parish today for EQ relief, and it got me wondering whether any of the islamic relief organizations have a presence there. The Red Cresent is the Middle Eastern version of the Red Cross. Just curious

2:12 pm

Jayk

And do they, do you know?

2:12 pm

harpjane

I thought it would be a nice show of humanitarianism if we made a donation to an islamic organization that is helping in Haiti

2:14 pm

Soodle

Thats nice, Harp. My goodness - the poor misfortunes need every bit of support they can get.

2:14 pm

Hi, babblers. When the US was supplying West Berlin with everything, they culd organize better, since there were no other nations involved. they loaded the planes at the Frankfurt airport, enotued \them in /berlin and then send them to Hannover to be roeloaded. The Size of west Berlin and its population was probably as big as Haiti is now.

2:20 pm

Jayk

that's the one I'm missing. the calf, the pig. Any less agricultural way to put it?

2:20 pm

hego

no

2:20 pm

Jayk

great

2:20 pm

Pinikula

wow, inge...interesting!

2:20 pm

hego

It's agricultural.

2:20 pm

Jayk - look end the end of Pini's clue

Jayk

2:24 pm

hego

that won't work.

2:24 pm

hego

Glad you got it.

2:25 pm

Jayk

OK, I've only been doing this for a couple of months (very long ones, it seems) but I've never seen a "tion" in the grid. is there ever?

2:25 pm

Pinikula

Hey...got a question...has anyone been playing that Funny Farm game that DC found?

2:25 pm

Pinikula

2:28 pm

2:57 pm

2:58 pm

Soodle

How decadent, Welki :)

2:58 pm

dcseain

totally one of the best sweet things ever

2:58 pm

welki

better than on crispy thin ginger wafers?

2:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

ate too much a few months ago. i am off it

2:59 pm

dcseain

never tried it with ginger wafers, mostly cause i usually eat the wafers plain, so adding to them just usually does not occur to me.

3:01 pm

welki

the cookies are made by a swedish company called Anna's .. they're the best (well, maybe second to Dutch windmill cookies)

3:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have seen them in ikea and also in dollar tree

3:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

and other dollar type store like big lots

3:01 pm

dcseain

ah, yes, IKEA sells Anna's wafers

3:01 pm

dcseain

those ones are very tasty

3:02 pm

welki

i avoid ikea like the plague, so have never seen them there .. sobey's (supermarket) carries them

3:02 pm

Soodle

Now see what you started, Welki????

3:02 pm

72 Temple Owl

have recipe for ginger cookies made at robert e lee's childhood home. yummy

3:02 pm

soodle, this started in 1994, when an italian internet friend turned me onto the combo :)

3:02 pm

dcseain

that's really cool, TO

3:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

ginger butter cookies

3:04 pm

Soodle

Usually when I read about what Babblers are currently eating, I gain about 14 pounds just by reading. however, I just don't like nutella, so I feel very sanctimonious, (and slimmer)

3:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

time to think a bout dinner and also to hit the stores before they close.

3:05 pm

dcseain

njoy, TO

3:05 pm

I've been making Anzac biscuits lately, very sweet and morish

3:08 pm

72 Temple Owl

i met someone who went on about the energy of the rocks and urged me to go.

3:08 pm

welki

just looked up Anzac biscuits ... cookies with a history! and they look deeeeelicious!

3:09 pm

dcseain

oh, on that count, yes, i can see that. Much history, bedrock poking through around the river, and it's dowstream from the dam, so still largely unsullied.

3:09 pm

lynxxx

Just put a recipe on my profile.

3:10 pm

welki

i just saw it, lynn :) my oldest daughter's arriving wednesday (with 8 mo old grand-daughter). was planning on coconut cake, but make anzac biscuits now :)

3:11 pm

dcseain

3:11 pm

welki

make = maybe

3:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

desicated coconut?

3:12 pm

lynxxx

Yes

3:12 pm

lynxxx

Sorry, that is finely grated as opposed too shredded which has longer strands

3:12 pm

dcseain

dried, unsweetened coconut works for desicated coconut, TO

3:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

trader joe's?

3:13 pm

welki

nooo, just use shredded unsweetened

3:13 pm

welki

or get flaked .. that's smaller than shredded

3:14 pm

dcseain

yes to both TO and welki :)

3:14 pm

welki

or ... you can chop it fine yourself

3:14 pm

welki

or ... we can all make a trip to lynxxx's and just eat her anzac biscuits. more authentic anyway LOL

3:15 pm

lynxxx

and before it is asked...golden syrup is LIGHT corn syrup

3:15 pm

lynxxx

You are all welcome, though you had better get here quickly

3:16 pm

dcseain

Lyle's Golden Syrup is available here, and is a cane syrup rather than a corn one.

3:16 pm

Soodle

And, Lynn, while your at it, flavour it with the illicit Irish hooch LOL

3:16 pm

welki

we have roger's here .. also cane syrup. karo is corn syrup.

Exaggeration, the lot of it.

3:33 pm

lynxxx

15 left, just found the other 8!

3:33 pm

dcseain

Southie, officially South Boston, is the scariest place i've yet been. It's the Irish neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts.

3:33 pm

Soodle

Haz! I feature in your profile. i am truly honoured. (Sarcasm font optional)

3:34 pm

lynxxx

see - and if DC says so it must be true

3:34 pm

Haz1558

I'm pleased that you're pleased, Soodle.

3:34 pm

Haz1558

I had noted your comments during the big freeze.

3:35 pm

Haz1558

DC tried to pass off the funny farm game as an amusing little pastime....

3:35 pm

dcseain

in fairness lyn, most are as Irish as i am, meaning not at all.

3:35 pm

dcseain

it's a giant time sink, haz :)

3:35 pm

nrkii

I have 2 P4 words... is that all?

3:35 pm

Haz1558

I'm not saying he stretches the truth, but you need to keep an eye on him.

3:36 pm

Haz1558

Just the 2, nrkii.

3:36 pm

lynxxx

yes nrkii

3:36 pm

nrkii

okay, so missing a p6 and an h4

3:36 pm

lynxxx

3:36 pm

Haz1558

Think creatively for the second letter of a p6.

3:37 pm

nrkii

for p6, I have po6/21, po6/24, and pt 6/21

3:37 pm

Haz1558

Darn.

3:37 pm

lynxxx

another po6.21

3:37 pm

Soodle

Haz, if ever sarcasm font was needed, it was during the big freeze, and my reference to global warming. But, theres no sarcasm font, so there was misunderstanding. But, hey, I get to feature in your profile, so all is not lost!

3:37 pm

nrkii

thanks, looking now

3:38 pm

Haz1558

Oh, I entirely understood your frustration, Soodle.

3:41 pm

Haz1558

Bye nrkii.

3:41 pm

dcseain

it's rained less here today than forecast, but it's supposed to rain into tomorrow.

3:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

*breaks out cheese platter*

3:42 pm

Haz1558

Is this in the chat log, welki, or just life in general?

3:42 pm

welki

3:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

I think the US needs a few days of sunshine to get them all happy again

3:43 pm

welki

i rarely get into trouble here, haz ... i try to keep my comments as innocuous as possible because i've learned my lesson (here, anyway). in real life, i'm a pistol :)

3:46 pm

Haz1558

Toodle-oo, Soodle.

3:46 pm

Haz1558

'Niceness is overrated' never appeared in any of our set texts at Henry's.

3:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

no doubt

3:47 pm

welki

i have pretty good spidey-sense when it comes to people ... but it comes around and bites me in the backside every time, until someone else confirms what i suspected. so until that happens, i'm just the ol' crone who can't play nicely with others

3:48 pm

Atalante

Is Mr Haz out gallivanting again?

3:49 pm

Haz1558

No, he's sitting in the kitchen reading the paper and eating.

3:49 pm

Atalante

Hi Mr Haz!!

3:49 pm

72 Temple Owl

hello ata.

3:49 pm

lynxxx

hi Ata

3:49 pm

Atalante

and hi everyone else :P

3:49 pm

Haz1558

I'm realising that I should have told him that there's a TV programme on about the Rift Valley.

3:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

ok, off to the mall. i hate being FORCED to purchase something

3:50 pm

welki

hi, ata (today, my husband knows where ketchikan is and that i'd like to go salmon fishing there ... we'll work it slowly)

3:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh have you all taken the "what olympic mascot am i " quiz?

3:50 pm

Haz1558

Hope it's not too painful, TO. The shopping, not the quiz.

3:50 pm

welki

is groundhog an option?

3:51 pm

72 Temple Owl

it will be. clothing taxed in this god forsaken state.

3:51 pm

lynxxx

BBL walk time

3:51 pm

welki

bye, lynn

3:52 pm

Haz1558

Is it not taxed everywhere?

3:52 pm

Haz1558

See you, lynxxx.

3:52 pm

welki

guess i should be moving, too ... things to do, people to aggravate :)

3:52 pm

72 Temple Owl

only miga, sumi or quatchi. i wanted to be q but i am s

3:52 pm

Atalante

very good welki :)

3:52 pm

Haz1558

We know nothing about aggravating people, do we, Ata?

3:52 pm

72 Temple Owl

no haz, varies by state. this state taxes EVERYTHING

3:53 pm

Haz1558

Bad state!

3:53 pm

Atalante

nothing at all

3:55 pm

Atalante

do you like my Sily cat pic, Haz?

3:55 pm

Haz1558

It's extraordinary.

3:55 pm

Haz1558

She looks as though she's testing a mirror or something.

3:55 pm

Nancy Boy

Ata, that's adorable!

3:55 pm

Atalante

just out of shot is the object of desire - her fluffy mouse

3:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

love the pic ata. here is a link to my hotel neighbors who had a very rowdy party above me lst night. or at least the parents did. http://jumpropevideos.com/2009/04/07/k
ings-firecrackers-jump-rope-team/

3:56 pm

Haz1558

The words, jump rope team and 'above' kind of tells the tale.

3:56 pm

Atalante

ty NB :)

3:57 pm

Atalante

what time did they settle down?

3:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

really you should watch

3:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

after 4 am

3:58 pm

Atalante

very odd but very clever!

3:58 pm

Haz1558

I don't think I'd have made it into that team.

3:59 pm

Atalante

nor me

3:59 pm

Haz1558

Do they sing as well?

3:59 pm

Atalante

Hobbit might have done

4:00 pm

Haz1558

They're at the BIG skipping rope bit.

4:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

do you not skip rope over there?

4:01 pm

Atalante

only in playgrounds when you're 6!

4:01 pm

Haz1558

Yes, but ours is more the skip six times then trip over the rope variety.

4:02 pm

Haz1558

They certainly don't go in for mass skipping like that.

4:02 pm

Atalante

the government would probably be called and the school quarantined for some mass hysterical disease if a whole class of skippers were seen :P

4:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

had the plebes and middies standing. but then again they wer probably drunk. i liked when the girl jumped 10 with one rope

4:03 pm

Haz1558

Yes, and the children might be damaged if they were made to everything the same way. No room for individual expression.

4:03 pm

Haz1558

*to do

4:04 pm

Atalante

good point

4:04 pm

Haz1558

It's really impressive, TO.

4:05 pm

Haz1558

I love the gorilla cheering them on.

4:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

we have competitive jumping, mostly double dutch. big urban sport for girls

4:07 pm

Haz1558

So, it's a big thing generally or in particular states?

4:08 pm

72 Temple Owl

i nhave never seen a precisiohn/exhibition team before. but double dutch is big in urban areas. the king firecrackers have been on cnn and other shos

4:09 pm

Atalante

would never have thought of synchronised skipping!

4:09 pm

Haz1558

They're pretty brilliant.

4:09 pm

72 Temple Owl

better than most summer olympic sports.

4:11 pm

Haz1558

Anyway, time I was off. TO, hope you get your shoes without too much hassle and at acceptable price.

4:11 pm

Haz1558

And Ata, I'll see you tomorrow.

4:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am glad you enjoyed them bye haz and all!

4:11 pm

Haz1558

Byee!

fuquayvarina

hi ata!

4:13 pm

fuquayvarina

I see no one's been dumping their whole list into the chog recently. Guess I have to work at this...

4:14 pm

april98

Good Afternoon everyone :-) just finished and be happy to help anyone out before I go watch some tennis!

4:14 pm

fuquayvarina

congrats, april! I'm missing an O word - have of4, of5, of5.

4:16 pm

april98

Do you have of6? If not it's

4:16 pm

april98

oops...

4:16 pm

fuquayvarina

aha, of6?

4:16 pm

Atalante

of6? ooo

4:16 pm

redturtlehead

dumping lists?

4:17 pm

april98

of6=opposite of on + game, ***, match

4:17 pm

fuquayvarina

yes, red, to my undying chagrin, I copied and pasted my whole list into the chog the other day when trying to put it in BabbleExpert..... blush

4:17 pm

Atalante

ask fuquay, red :P

4:18 pm

fuquayvarina

ty, april!!

4:18 pm

april98

yw!

4:18 pm

Atalante

it was amusing

4:18 pm

redturtlehead

wow! that was an event indeed!!!!

4:19 pm

fuquayvarina

thought I might be exiled from babbleland forever, but folks were fairly kind and chatted away extra chattily to move it out of the window....

4:19 pm

Atalante

yu're certainly not the only one to have done itÂ¬

4:19 pm

redturtlehead

if i had only known, i probably would have peeked!

4:20 pm

fuquayvarina

funny enough, some did, and then proceeded to complain that I'd made it too easy

4:21 pm

redturtlehead

Ha! I would probably never admit to it. I loathe to admit when I have gone to the list, but its always obvious as I start asking for clues with point values!

4:21 pm

Atalante

I remember someone dumping a ~400 word list in one day

4:21 pm

fuquayvarina

that makes me feel better

4:22 pm

Michnick

I am sitting here all by myself giggling and blushing for you fuqua, so I may as well say hi. Hi.

4:22 pm

fuquayvarina

hi mich!

4:22 pm

redturtlehead

Hi Mich!

4:23 pm

Michnick

Hi red, fuqua, Ata, etc.

4:23 pm

Michnick

I am finding more phantoms than words in the grid today.

4:23 pm

fuquayvarina

help with right side R? have re4 and rh4 from there

4:23 pm

redturtlehead

Yesterday I was determined to do the grid without the list, and ended up searching the chog for clues....

4:23 pm

Michnick

melon, lemon, etc

4:24 pm

redturtlehead

fruit, hmmm.

4:24 pm

Michnick

What does say about me red?

4:24 pm

redturtlehead

Oh darn, I thought it was a clue for Fuquay, and was searching for fruit in the grid!!!!

4:25 pm

Michnick

No, but maybe you'll be haunted by melons and lemons as I am.

4:25 pm

redturtlehead

I tried melon a few times...

4:25 pm

Michnick

see?

4:26 pm

april98

Do you have the re6s?

4:26 pm

Michnick

Olmert is in there, for those of you up on Israeli politics. You do not want him haunting you!

4:26 pm

redturtlehead

I have two re 6's both redoing type words...

4:26 pm

fuquayvarina

have 3 of them, but they're all from the other R, april. are there more?

4:27 pm

redturtlehead

No I do not!, yesterday we had Osama...

4:27 pm

Michnick

I have 2, april, one builds on a he4 and one on a re4. Both are to do the act again.

4:27 pm

fuquayvarina

only one rh?

4:28 pm

april98

do you have re5=14 to take up your shorten your skirt again

4:28 pm

Michnick

Oh, red, Maybe we should have them me4 in a grid one day! We had Obama one day last week.

4:28 pm

april98

yes, only 1 rh

4:28 pm

fuquayvarina

that was it! thanks april!

4:28 pm

redturtlehead

wonders if that would block up the grid!

4:29 pm

Michnick

More likely blow up the grid

4:29 pm

redturtlehead

true true.

4:31 pm

redturtlehead

I am watching the recap of the skating from last night, some of it impressive, some of it, err not. Sometimes I can not stand the frills the men put n.

4:31 pm

fuquayvarina

OK, must get back to work. Happy babbling to all and see you later or tomorrow!

4:32 pm

pippingeek

Lady Biotch

ok...glad you have a sense of humor because I was going to say "YUK" to salmon cakes and brussel sprouts lol

5:53 pm

pippingeek

i know most people hate the sprouts, but i love them - even more than dessert!

5:53 pm

redturtlehead

if done right that sounds like a great meal pippin, but brussels, one must be careful...

5:53 pm

lynxxx

sprouts nice w. grated nutmeg

5:54 pm

pippingeek

i like them almost any way, but my fave is roasted with a little salt and balsamic vinegar

5:54 pm

pippingeek

butter is nice too

5:55 pm

lynxxx

balsamic whilst cooking or added after?

5:56 pm

pippingeek

actually i like a little of both, because it carmelizes during cooking but then adds that sharp acidity after - but it can burn whilst cooking so best to keep things moist

5:56 pm

oodleberry

lynxxx

pippingeek

6:34 pm

pippingeek

i was actually not a hothe4 at work today, but still got yelled at by 2 people for someone else doing something wrong and me fixing it

6:34 pm

Jacula

That's the way of the world, Pippin. *sighs*

6:35 pm

Jacula

I was just wondering, having typed the word 'poultice'm why something that emits warmth ends with something cold like 'ice'? Random.

6:37 pm

stidmama

YAY Jac!

6:37 pm

pippingeek

hah. always the conundrum. tho that's one i had never considered

6:37 pm

Jacula

Hi Stid. Everything okay with you and yours?

6:37 pm

stidmama

sorry I wandered off, had a sudden insight how to do something for a paper this coming week.

6:37 pm

what you do to a book you've previously enjoyed

6:38 pm

Jacula

A lightbulb in the brain moment, Stid. They're good, aren't they?

6:38 pm

pippingeek

(and i don't mean burn it)

6:38 pm

stidmama

listing with 46 to go... (yes, very yay pippin, somedays it's impossible)

6:38 pm

gremlinn

revile?

6:39 pm

stidmama

gremlinn!!! *stern literate mama look*

6:39 pm

pippingeek

oh, grem, you don't revisit books you've loved?

6:39 pm

Jacula

You might want to look at all the words again, gap. The words in the book, that is.

6:39 pm

gremlinn

I was just trying to think of a re6

6:39 pm

pippingeek

i think a v is worth way more points than that...

6:39 pm

stidmama

how fishy is that ET?

6:39 pm

gapeach

Thanks, y'all.

6:39 pm

Jacula

Stid - I don't if it's a whodunnit? I already know whodunnit.

6:39 pm

stidmama

go peach go!

6:40 pm

pippingeek

actually stid i got it pretty quick, that was my nbt word, but it's .. not entirely common

6:40 pm

PAV3

funny, stid, i've been lurking and I have 48 t ogo..stil missing hte lone e for nbt though

6:41 pm

stidmama

go PAV!

6:41 pm

gapeach

Thanks, stidmama. Just need one more...wh5-20 the first please.

6:41 pm

pippingeek

try a shortened version of the beginning of a famous love song? (more specific clues if you want)

6:41 pm

pippingeek

peach, it's a grain!

6:41 pm

PAV3

peach...do you have the grain?

6:42 pm

gapeach

NM, just found it. Thanks to all. Sweet dreams everyone.

6:42 pm

pippingeek

actually that's not a love song at all, nm

6:42 pm

stidmama

YAY peach! (sweet dreams)

6:42 pm

stidmama

ah, found the ET .

6:43 pm

pippingeek

yay stid!

6:43 pm

Jacula

PAV - e + m* ( abbreviation for a nasty term many rappers use to intimate someone does not have the correct relationship with his mother) with plural ending.

6:44 pm

Jacula

Oh, et. I thought it was the em4 that was required. *blushes*

6:44 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, I hate rap music.

6:44 pm

stidmama

that's a good clue, Jac -- just found the em 4 and wondered how to clue it!

6:44 pm

pippingeek

i haven't the foggiest what you are trying to clue!

6:44 pm

Jacula

Lol Stid. Thanks.

6:44 pm

PAV3

you mean I must now start listening to rap to get babble words? it shouldn't even be a form of communication!

6:44 pm

pippingeek

the 4/5 or the 4/8?

6:45 pm

pippingeek

ah, clearly the 4/8

6:45 pm

Jacula

em4.8 pippin.

6:45 pm

pippingeek

ugh. i always feel so inadequate when i'm incapable of finding a 4 word

6:46 pm

gremlinn

if you know the first two letters, it's even easier

6:46 pm

stidmama

the EM 4 from the fourth column over is EM + two letters for a snaky letter

6:46 pm

Jacula

PAV - No, I would NOT recommend it. I am only aware of it because of having a te4ager in the house who watches Sky music channels. She was learned to turn 'em off if I'm around and rap comes on.

6:47 pm

Jacula

*has not was.

6:47 pm

gremlinn

it'd be better to listen to chemistry lectures if you want to learn words

6:48 pm

Jacula

True - gremlin. Electro Magnetic... etc.

6:48 pm

gremlinn

that em4 really shouldn't be a word

6:49 pm

PAV3

et then must be the word I need for NBT..from the lone E?

6:49 pm

Jacula

Tell Enable that, gremlinn.

6:49 pm

pippingeek

'zackly, i don't see how acronyms should count. we'd be in way too much trouble then!

6:50 pm

pippingeek

pav, try a shortened version of everlasting

6:50 pm

Jacula

et6/18 - forever, Pav. e + sea eagle (alternate spelling).

6:50 pm

PAV3

I keep missing that word...salmon please, I need dinner as well...

6:51 pm

gremlinn

should "snafu" (and "snafued", etc.) be removed for the same reason?

6:51 pm

pippingeek

i already ate the salmon ckes, sorry - you want i give them back mama bird-style?

6:51 pm

PAV3

nope that wasn't the E from the middle row loner...

6:51 pm

gremlinn

and scuba, laser, radar....

6:51 pm

Jacula

No, not sea eagle - but anoher seabird. The *e4.4 that sounds like a twist or move around, or a go on the stage or in a game.

6:52 pm

sixty7stang13

of 6/36 plz

6:52 pm

Jacula

pippin - please do not regurgitate any food in this chog!

6:52 pm

pippingeek

6:52 pm

pippingeek

too late, jac!

6:53 pm

gremlinn

of6 = a displacement

6:53 pm

pippingeek

just kidding, the chog is clean, i promise

6:53 pm

gremlinn

don't regurgitate in me!

6:53 pm

PAV3

pippin..I have that already, not from the lone E though

6:53 pm

Jacula

pippin - well, it'd better have been delivered cleanly. If not, here are the mop and bucket.

6:53 pm

sixty7stang13

pippingeek

6:55 pm

pippingeek

so e + sexy ** then plural

6:55 pm

pippingeek

does that help at all pav?

6:56 pm

Jacula

I'm wandering off for a while now. BBL.

6:56 pm

PAV3

the em4 I have ...I need the lone E from the middle row right side....

6:56 pm

gremlinn

lone E is also an em4

6:57 pm

PAV3

ok, redirect ...thanks grem

6:58 pm

pippingeek

that's why i kept giving wrong clues, i couldn't remember where it came from! sorry..

6:59 pm

PAV3

6:59 pm

gremlinn

yeah, tough in that regard...good thing there weren't *too* many Es overall to look through

10:02 pm

TeaNCrackers

Tri - it always cracks me up when I misread something like that

10:02 pm

jmcnrick

i have heard that hursh

10:47 pm

Pinikula

probably why I don't have one anymore, hursh

10:48 pm

hurshy

i was working on a household project - which when i purchased the supplies for my husband indicated he wanted no part in

10:48 pm

Pinikula

uh oh

10:48 pm

hurshy

and then he comes over to see what i'm doing and says i'm doing it wrong, he can do it better and faster, and i might hurt myself.

10:49 pm

hurshy

now, i was not in any danger of hurting myself, i was not frustrated with the project, i enjoy these things and he does not

10:49 pm

Pinikula

in instances like those, I don't think the braincells kick in

10:49 pm

hurshy

i did not get upset at him, i just said i was doing fine and would keep doing it. and HE got all mad at ME.

10:50 pm

jmcnrick

so funny my husband would do that from time to time even though he knew i was better than he was at such things

10:50 pm

Pinikula

ugh...men, you can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em, oh, hell, pass the beer nuts!

10:51 pm

hurshy

when i tried to smooth things over by telling him that i had not been frustrated, i just hadn't seen any reason for him to take over, he got more annoyed. and when i asked him to just let it go, he walked away without a word.

10:52 pm

Pinikula

probably should just let him pout it out

10:52 pm

Pinikula

(for now, anyway)

10:52 pm

10:54 pm

Pinikula

I did that with my dau, nef...she wanted to cook all the time, so I resorted to buying the grocery and waited to see what she'd create

10:54 pm

jmcnrick

all re words *sigh*

10:54 pm

Pinikula

what lengths, jmc?

10:55 pm

hurshy

the thing is, when he's been doing household projects and is REALLY frustrated by them, he totally doesn't want my help. and if i were to suggest that i could take over anything from cooking to driving in a screw to whatever because i could do a BETTER JOB, good heavens would he react!

11:04 pm

gremlinn

I've been wondering if this chat is slow for everyone. It usually takes over 5 seconds for anything I post to show up.

11:04 pm

westford

11:05 pm

Pinikula

11:05 pm

westford

11:05 pm

jmcnrick

nope west

11:05 pm

jmcnrick

not slow for me

11:05 pm

gremlinn

But it's always slow, for me. No big deal, just wondering about it.

11:05 pm

Pinikula

I'm delayed 2-3 seconds

11:05 pm

Pinikula

11:11 pm

gremlinn

11:12 pm

11:12 pm

gremlinn

11:12 pm

westford

yes lol

11:13 pm

westford

has the rain finally let up?

11:13 pm

gremlinn

yeah, I think it has been dry since Friday night

11:13 pm

westford

that's good

11:14 pm

gremlinn

but it's somewhat hard to hear the rain from this room, so I may have missed brief periods

11:15 pm

babbz

TY - Anyone watch the game tonight?

11:18 pm

gremlinn

potatoes

11:18 pm

Pinikula

* giggle *

11:18 pm

gremlinn

I watched it, very interesting last 10 minutes

11:18 pm

Pinikula

no sports here

11:19 pm

Pinikula

oops...to the PB I go

11:19 pm

babbz

Isn't that the truth, gremlinn - I was kinda rooting for Minnesota and Brett Favre, but good game never the less

11:19 pm

gremlinn

I was kind of, but not strongly - good stories either way

11:20 pm

gremlinn

wild finishes seems to be this season's theme

11:20 pm

babbz

Weird - the coach of the Saints is from my town and the coach of Minnesota is from the next town over - kind of small world, eh?

11:20 pm

gremlinn

yeah

11:21 pm

babbz

I'm not much for football until the end of the season and these games are usually kind of exciting

11:22 pm

gremlinn

this year they have the Pro Bowl before the Superbowl, which is a first, I believe - it's also kind of awkward for those players who are going to both

11:22 pm

babbz

Was that the same stadium that all the people were living at after hurricane katrina or did they build a new stadium?

11:22 pm

gremlinn

since they would hate to get injured in the Pro Bowl where it wouldn't matter that much

11:22 pm

gremlinn

I thought they went to somewhere in Texas

11:23 pm

babbz

I heard that the superbowl players will not be going to pro bowl, but maybe i heard wrong

11:23 pm

gremlinn

could be totally wrong, don't trust me on that

11:23 pm

gremlinn

ah, I had not heard that

11:23 pm

babbz

no remember when the stadium got trashed with all those poor displaced folks in it?

11:24 pm

gremlinn

I remember, but I'm probably confused with something else too

11:24 pm

babbz

I'm gabbing on this too much! Usually I just lurk

11:25 pm

babbz

Should probably get some work done...good night all!

11:25 pm

gremlinn

night
