12:13 am

westford

andree said yesterday that his daughter was in the hospital with pneumonia

12:13 am

gremlinn

it may be that the engine for computing clues has run, but the change to the web page has not propagated across the internet to everyone yet

12:13 am

VolleymomDee

1:07 am

cybernan

missing the first 6, 7

1:08 am

gremlinn

odd spelling of someone who sells things

1:08 am

gremlinn

(at least, sounds that way)

1:08 am

jillibus

Oh dear, another biggie and no Lickety. Is this one kinder than the last one?

1:09 am

cybernan

p's slain

1:09 am

cybernan

I'm not convinced that the creators of enable know how to spell

1:09 am

gremlinn

perhaps a bit easier

1:09 am

cybernan

how was the bridge, jill?

1:10 am

jillibus

that's not saying much, grem!

1:10 am

gremlinn

yeah - it is still somewhat troublesome with no Lickety

1:11 am

jillibus

bridge was not much fun -- rotten cards, bad play, and too rushed at times

1:12 am

cybernan

nothing worse than not getting decent cards all night

1:13 am

gremlinn

phantom edelweiss!

1:13 am

grannyrose

pl's, pl4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 5

1:13 am

flosey

but that's the beauty of duplicate, everyone else is in the same boat

1:13 am

jillibus

oh, there were some good hands but they were misleading

1:13 am

jillibus

at least, that's what I thought

1:14 am

flosey

true, jilli, some slams not easy to see

1:14 am

Douglas

I respect people who are clever at bridge, it's a game I don't get very well. I'm better at Babble, but that's not saying much.

1:15 am

gremlinn

I have no idea how to play bridge.

1:15 am

flosey

I love the game

1:15 am

jillibus

flosey is a whiz at both

1:15 am

Douglas

Well, there are some Scottish words in this grid.

1:15 am

cybernan

do you bid chicago?

1:16 am

flosey

lol jilli, my partner might not agree at times

1:16 am

Jellen

My mother played bridge, but I never learned...loved the leftovers from bridge club day, though!

1:16 am

flosey

duplicate scoring is like chicago

1:17 am

jillibus

flosey just took the words out of my moth

1:17 am

cybernan

not the scoring, the bidding system?

1:17 am

VolleymomDee

anyone find the last 8?

1:17 am

rururocks

you can be devout.. but why can't you devow?

1:17 am

flosey

I've never heard of a chicago bidding system nan

1:17 am

cybernan

not yet dee

1:17 am

jillibus

bidding is Standard American

1:17 am

flosey

that sounds like being defrocked ru

1:18 am

VolleymomDee

ty nan

1:18 am

gremlinn

re7 x 3

1:18 am

cybernan

that's great -- I was introduced to the Chicago bidding system quite a few years ago. I didn't like it -- figured you might as well just tell everyone what you are holding, it is so precise.

1:18 am

rururocks

it's been awhile since I have been defrocked..

1:19 am

cybernan

much prefer American Standard with a little seat of the pants thrown in!

1:20 am

jillibus

Never heard of the chicago bidding system -- what is it like?

1:21 am

cybernan

I can't remember now, but every suit and length had a different bid. A 2 bid wasn't a demand opening if it was in a minor suit - and on and on and on....

1:21 am

Douglas

2 blank tiles to go...woo-hoo!

1:22 am

jillibus

we play weak 2s

1:22 am

hi jill

3:00 am

it was a moment of utter stupidity here, jilli... thought I'd check out a cleaning tool while talking with my daughter and feeling sick. Hit Run before realising it.

3:00 am

lynxxx

nite Jilli

3:01 am

millsbooks

have you got a back-up cd

3:01 am

sprite

nope, not for this tool. Should never have hit run, but simply close and never use again.

3:01 am

jillibus

*repoof*

3:02 am

millsbooks

you could try windows help

3:02 am

sprite

not yet, millsbooks, computer is new. Was about to make a backup and wanted to clean away unnecessary stuff first. :(
I do have the windows cd of course, but that means doing everything over from the start.

3:03 am

millsbooks

if all esle fails you moght have to

3:03 am

millsbooks

might*

3:03 am

herinfernallady

can someone cook me dinner please

3:04 am

sprite

the only browser that is working is the babble browser. IE and FF will not start as applications, only visible in processes. It is a weird thing. And cannot google to help me find solutions!

3:04 am

millsbooks

in 10 hrs ...yes......lol

3:04 am

sprite

yep, I know. Was hoping somebody would know a way to restore without starting over.

3:04 am

sprite

lady, I will cook your dinner if you fix my puter

3:05 am

herinfernallady

Sprite can you save your browser bookmarks?

3:05 am

millsbooks

can you not download IE again

3:05 am

sprite

nope. I cannot get to any browser.

3:06 am

sprite

for downloading IE I need to have access to a browser... and I do have a setup file for FireFox but it does the same thing as the browser itself: it runs as a process, but not as a task (in the task manager). So I cannot access it.

3:07 am

City 17 dweller

Sprite - can you see/ open emails? This may be stupid, but could someone else d/load the browser and email the .exe to you? *has no idea if this would work*

3:07 am

herinfernallady

Have you checked your recycling bin?

3:08 am

sprite

now that is a good idea! Yes I can open mails, and receive them as well. Thanks City

3:08 am

sprite

lol yes lady

3:08 am

herinfernallady

just checking. O I ahve an idea

3:08 am

City 17 dweller

.. it might be too big, mind, I'm just floating nonsense here ;)

3:09 am

sprite

it might be, but it is worth trying.

3:09 am

sprite

please tell, lady

3:09 am

3:09 am

3:10 am

herinfernallady

Ok You are using Bable browser use?

3:10 am

City 17 dweller

3:11 am

herinfernallady

The other thought I have is what are you running Vista ?

3:11 am

sprite

yes, Babble browser is working

3:11 am

sprite

no, win xp pro

3:12 am

City 17 dweller

Herin... if you put the link in your profile, maybe sprite can follow it from there?

3:12 am

herinfernallady

OK. Check in your Search for ALL files Internet explorer

3:12 am

sprite

I copied the link to word and tried opening it from there

3:12 am

sprite

I cannot access the profiles either, I just realised.

3:12 am

sprite

ok will do

3:14 am

herinfernallady

OK Hun B>F says to reboot. Hold down F8 will rebooting it should come up ''restore to last known good configuration point''

3:14 am

sprite

already tried that one as well, lady, sorry. No joy :(

3:15 am

City 17 dweller

Sprite, I am d/loading IE8 (nederlands, right?) ... if Herin's hubby can't get you back, let me have your email addy & I'll see if I can send it.

3:15 am

sprite

am searching for all internet explorer files

3:16 am

sprite

all found. Anything specific I should look for among them, lady?

3:16 am

sprite

that'd be great, City. my addy is bin_there at planet dot nl

3:17 am

herinfernallady

OK sprite can you access the control panel on your pc?

3:18 am

sprite

yes I can

3:19 am

herinfernallady

OK go to Program Access and Defaults

3:19 am

sprite

got it

3:20 am

herinfernallady

click on Set Default Program

3:20 am

herinfernallady

Or Set your Default Programs

3:21 am

sprite

yes and then?

3:22 am

herinfernallady

It should say: To set a program as your default etc

3:24 am

City 17 dweller

(meanwhile: sorry sprite, .exes are unsendable - at least through google mail for security purposes :/) took an age to complete the transfer anyway.

3:24 am

sprite

next is email prog, media player, IM prog, virt machine for java

3:33 am

sprite

that I can do in Custom. Doesn't make a difference though. Each time I try, all I get is the process, not the application to work.

3:34 am

herinfernallady

You should be able to get Set Default Programs, Select IE, set as Default program

3:36 am

lynxxx

BBL, good luck Sprite

3:36 am

sprite

thanks lyn

3:37 am

sprite

yep I can, lady, but it doesn't make a difference :(

3:37 am

herinfernallady

That is all I can say sorry

3:38 am

sprite

thanks for trying, hun

3:38 am

City 17 dweller

Hmm... my hubby is looking for a redistributable browser file that I can send you, Sprite. He knows a lot more than me (techy guy), so perhaps he'll come up with something.

3:39 am

herinfernallady

sigh. Sorry sprite. I have just cracked the shts at the tv

3:39 am

sprite

I would be very grateful, City.

3:43 am

herinfernallady

sorry Sprite I am out

3:43 am

sprite

thanks for trying!

3:46 am

City 17 dweller

... incidentally - stupid question, I know - do you still have the windows discs that you presumably got IE from in the first place? Can you select to just reinstall the browser, rather than windows in its entirety?

3:47 am

sprite

oh that is a good question. I should think so. I should have the original windows cd.

3:47 am

sprite

*checking*

3:52 am

sprite

ok must reboot... please keep fingers crossed for me?

3:54 am

rubyfoo

great grid, at least for the first third!

3:54 am

City 17 dweller

*crossed* ... I've got a file for you, too, zipped google chrome.

3:57 am

sprite

no change, alas. Wonderful, City, I can unzip.

3:58 am

City 17 dweller

Give it a moment to transfer & I'll try emailing it. Please tell me you're not on dial-up! LOL.

3:58 am

sprite

lol no, no problems there

4:00 am

City 17 dweller

on it's way :)

4:00 am

wonderful :)

4:02 am

it is good, isn't it rubyfoo

4:02 am

sprite

*checking mail... nothing yet*

4:03 am

City 17 dweller

Argh! It recognised the .zip as an executable file, and refused to send it again.

4:03 am

sprite

how irritating! Would it help to change the extension first? From exe into, say, old?

4:03 am

rubyfoo

I'm sorry you're having technical problems!

4:04 am

City 17 dweller

I'll try that, although I thought the .zip would fool it... hang on Sprite, this'll take another few minutes.

4:05 am

sprite

no problem at all, City, am so happy you are willing to try!

4:05 am

sprite

things will work out, rubyfoo... either this way, or the hard way (reinstalling windows and everything else). I should have been wiser.

4:06 am

rubyfoo

I'm good at technical things EXCEPT the computer

4:06 am

herinfernallady

Sorry i had to get food

4:06 am

sprite

food is good

4:07 am

rubyfoo

sometimes. I experiments with stuffed cabbage last night and it was good!

4:07 am

rubyfoo

experimented* (bad English)

4:10 am

rubyfoo

half! yippee

4:11 am

sprite

good job.

4:11 am

herinfernallady

Fried lentil bugger. Could not be bothered today

4:11 am

City 17 dweller

Good idea, Sprite, that went... let's hope it actually works, lmao!

4:11 am

rubyfoo

are you a vegetarian, lady?

4:12 am

sprite

am keeping my fingers crossed!

4:13 am

herinfernallady

No Ruby. Just felt like it

4:13 am

sprite

nothing yet.... *drumroll*

4:14 am

City 17 dweller

It's moderately huge, give it a while.

4:14 am

City 17 dweller

I'm keeping an eye out in case of a bounce-back.

4:15 am

sprite

thanks so much

4:15 am

rubyfoo

that's better, not being doctrinaire!

4:15 am

herinfernallady

Ruby did you look up the Diesel website?

4:15 am

Mudd

How many words today, please.

4:15 am

sprite

299 Mudd

4:17 am

rubyfoo

no, but vet is coming tomorrow, thank God, and I was able to describe the condition using sarcoptic as the key word. I think there must be a word other than "mange" for mange! lol I am less crazy and upset today, calmed way down

4:18 am

rubyfoo

sorry for my madness on Sunday, but I was beside myself

4:18 am

Mudd

You are kidding me. I'm just starting, but it doesn't feel like 299 to me. This could be a long day.

4:19 am

rubyfoo

mudd, the first half is easy, then the trouble starts......

4:19 am

sprite

it is big but so far not too hard, Mudd. It is a fun grid.

4:19 am

Mudd

I'm glad to hear that ... makes it more worthwhile.

4:20 am

rubyfoo

for some strange reason, I like the grids with w's and c's in them

4:21 am

sprite

City, nothing here yet... did you get something back?

4:21 am

Atalante

ruby, I think French for mange is la gale

4:22 am

sprite

hello Ata

4:22 am

City 17 dweller

Nope, looks like it fell through a hole in the internet O_O

4:22 am

rubyfoo

fortunately, the vet knew what I meant and asked the right questions. Medical stuff in French is always a learning experience for me

4:23 am

sprite

lol City, at least we found THE black hole then ;)

4:23 am

Atalante

and hi :)

4:23 am

rubyfoo

when I see her tomorrow, I'll show off la gale!

4:23 am

rubyfoo

and hi to you, poor Max!

4:23 am

sprite

now we should be able to travel through space and time...

4:24 am

City 17 dweller

*grins* unfortunately, I have to get going... I'd love to stay and work this out with you, Sprite, but the day's errands call - good luck if the email gets there (and if it doesn't), hope you don't end up having to reinstall!

4:24 am

herinfernallady

ATAAAAA

4:24 am

sprite

thanks City, for all your help!

4:24 am

City 17 dweller

... oh, spoke to soon. Undeliverable, rejected by your domain, session size. Bugger!

4:25 am

Atalante

Hobbit got popped into the vets this morning as her tail was getting all manky again. Poor babe!

4:25 am

sprite

argh. Well, thanks again, you tried everything :)

4:25 am

City 17 dweller

bah, some help - that was supposed to be a 'quick fix' ... you could have reinstalled by now ;)

4:25 am

herinfernallady

Is cone head going to be ok?

4:25 am

City 17 dweller

cheerio Sprite, everyone.

4:25 am

sprite

Ata, maybe you should stop swinging the poor babe around holding her tail...

4:26 am

sprite

bye City, and yes, but only the windows... not all else :)

4:26 am

Mudd

no list today, huh!

4:27 am

sprite

I want a word ending in -let

4:28 am

Atalante

conehead is fine, we've discovered that there's probably a link to her anal glands, every time they fill up she starts nibbling the whole area -> tail mankiness

4:28 am

Mudd

There's some in 'elt'

4:28 am

herinfernallady

ewwwww

4:29 am

sprite

give her a hug from me, Ata

4:29 am

Atalante

I will when she wakes up!

4:29 am

sprite

:) that will do nicely, dear

4:30 am

Atalante

let sleeping dogs lie is the truest phrase ever!

4:30 am

sprite

hah, found one.

4:30 am

sprite

oh yes. I love watching terra sleep. So utterly cute.

4:31 am

Atalante

4:31 am

rubyfoo

4:31 am

sprite

4:32 am

Atalante

4:42 am

4:55 am

joshuavorbis

last few via list - this one had a lot of hiders

4:56 am

Atalante

yay josh

4:56 am

Haz1558

So are the aw8 the prize-winning yo8 who aren't da8 and who get to the competition on time?

4:56 am

Atalante

haz! la glitteratina!

4:56 am

Haz1558

de8 is the other one, lessens the supply of something.

4:56 am

sprite

you got it, Haz, and hello. Got them, Ata, do you have the last 8 as well?

4:57 am

Haz1558

Bonjour!

4:57 am

joshuavorbis

haz, the prize-winning yo8 are the aw8 because they didn't da8, and their success de8 the trophy cases of the yo8

4:57 am

Haz1558

de8/50 for the last one.

4:57 am

Haz1558

I'm glad that's been cleared up, josh.

4:57 am

sprite

thanks Haz and josh *thinking*

4:58 am

joshuavorbis

oops, i screwed up the da8 in that sentence

4:58 am

Haz1558

de8/50 - wrong spelling but sounds like what a vengeful enemy might do to a Scotsman's kilt.

4:59 am

joshuavorbis

must sleep - goodnight non-da8. work hard and get those fireworks

4:59 am

Atalante

look up it?

4:59 am

sprite

bye josh

4:59 am

sprite

pull it off?

5:00 am

Haz1558

No! Render it non-kilt like. ac5/12 of tartan and not a fold in sight. It would slow up any Scotsman.

5:00 am

Atalante

I don't get that. Another clue.

5:01 am

Atalante

(I do, really :P)

5:01 am

Haz1558

I know, you're just role-playing.

5:01 am

Haz1558

My tic is starting.

5:01 am

Atalante

it's fun

5:01 am

Atalante

and your awful clues make it so easy

5:01 am

sprite

hey hey, I am a moderate clue asker and I do think!

5:02 am

Haz1558

Don't worry, sprite, this isn't directed at you at all. I had problems yesterday trying to clue someone.

5:02 am

sprite

ah ok, thanks. Was wondering!

5:02 am

Atalante

just poking at Haz, yesterday someone was informing her that her clues were crap

5:03 am

sprite

really? That is crazy. You're one of our top cluers.

5:03 am

Haz1558

I suppose they are if you don't get them.

5:03 am

sprite

yessss there it is. Thanks Haz, got it.

5:03 am

Atalante

oh, Haz. You've been demoted to only *one* of our top cluers now

5:04 am

Haz1558

The tic is going and I'm starting to itch. Where's FM when you need one of her special pills?

5:04 am

sprite

it is a very high status. On same level as BabbleRabble. It is a compliment, actually :P

5:04 am

MonkeyGames

Hi folks! Will be in and out of chat, working reception at the neuroscience institute. How are you folks?

5:05 am

sprite

hello MonkeyG

5:05 am

MonkeyGames

Akkk, here comes a courier. Temp poof.

5:05 am

Haz1558

Hello, MonkeyGames, I'm well.

5:05 am

sprite

rotten but relaxed, and you?

5:05 am

Haz1558

Gosh, those couriers must be demanding.

5:06 am

sprite

couriers thinking they are courtiers. Hubris.

5:06 am

Atalante

couriers to babblers are always very demanding

5:07 am

sprite

I always use monkeys and that works fine

5:07 am

sprite

well, except last time I sent you something, Ata

5:07 am

MonkeyGames

OK, back. Soon I will go for longer and dive into the pile of packages and see if i CAN FIND THE RESEARCHERS AND DEPARTMENTS WHERE THEY BELONG. Oop, sorry about the capslock. Glad you're well, Haz, and what's teh matter, Sprite?

5:07 am

Atalante

yes :(

5:08 am

sprite

oh, same same and some more. And managed to mess up my puter, which is both stupid and a pita.

5:09 am

MonkeyGames

Bummer!

5:10 am

MonkeyGames

Also selling lunch cards so will be sporadic in the chat.

5:10 am

sprite

aw well, computer messes aren't the worst in life.

5:10 am

MonkeyGames

You'd think they were when one happens to my husband... But I take your view. Hope it gets sortedout!

5:11 am

sprite

it will. There is always reinstall.

5:11 am

MonkeyGames

There goes that cute neurologist again... dang. He's distracting.

5:11 am

MonkeyGames

That's true, there is, Sprite. If only more things worked that way...

5:12 am

Haz1558

Goodness, that gives us something to gossip about, MonkeyGames being distracted by neurologists.

5:12 am

MonkeyGames

Par for teh course here! Unless it one of the geneticists or opthalmologists.

5:13 am

MonkeyGames

Gonna miss it here; it's my last week.

5:13 am

sprite

a gentle smile, MonkeyG. And not too much looking. They will come to you :)

5:13 am

Haz1558

I can see you're nothing if you don't have an -ist at the end of your job title.

5:13 am

MonkeyGames

Only several of them are eye candy though.

5:13 am

Atalante

-ists and -sms are very important

5:14 am

sprite

I am an optimist. Who believes in realism. Does that count?

5:15 am

Haz1558

Yes, you're a real optimist - that's the best kind.

5:15 am

sprite

good

5:16 am

sprite

yay found the ~ words.

5:16 am

MonkeyGames

I have an -ist. I am the receptionist. And Sprite, I can't play with them-- I'm taken. But they're nice to look at.

5:16 am

sprite

of course you can play. Just keep your clothes on ;)

5:16 am

MonkeyGames

Luckily there are two eye-candy ones at the war documentation institute too.

5:17 am

MonkeyGames

Hee hee!

5:17 am

MonkeyGames

Oh lordy, more clawed from ova. The guy they're for is at lunch though. My favorite delivery so far was the box labeled "pure anti-human".

5:18 am

MonkeyGames

FroG, not froM...

5:18 am

sprite

lolllll wonderful

5:19 am

MonkeyGames

Plus last week there was an ENORMOUS box labeled "nano chip". Hmmm.

5:19 am

MonkeyGames

Hah, just arranged for a tour of the brain bank before I leave at the end of the week.

5:20 am

sprite

am going down for lunch, my girl just came home. Laterz

5:20 am

MonkeyGames

Bye Sprite!

5:20 am

Haz1558

Bye sprite, hope you get the computer sorted.

5:23 am

MonkeyGames

OK, I've got to find out who ordered these reagents. Back in a bit!

5:30 am

Atalante

I'm really thinking of going back to bed for an hour

5:31 am

Haz1558

Is it still cold? Or do you just need a bit more sleep?

5:31 am

Mudd

155 and I have hit the wall

5:32 am

Atalante

cold and sleepy! husband snored all night long, I got about 3 hours sleep

5:32 am

Haz1558

Then go to bed and set your alarm for a couple of hours time. Hopefully, you'll feel better - and warmer!

5:33 am

Haz1558

Have you gone through the chat log for clues, Mudd?

5:33 am

Atalante

I will take my little portable personal hot water bottle with me. I now know her temperature is 39.4C. Nice and warm!

5:33 am

Haz1558

What if she snores?

5:34 am

Atalante

don't mind her snoring! She couldn't wake the dead with hers

5:35 am

Haz1558

Spangle is stirring so I'll get her ready for our walk. It's so nice to see sunshine, although it's pretty cold outside.

5:36 am

Atalante

have a lovely walk!

5:36 am

Haz1558

I will! Bye for now...*gone*

good luck, Scrabs. I feel for you

8:41 am

hego

Oh, poor Scrabs.

8:41 am

Judi

Uhg. Weather report says we're supposed to get another 12 to 18" of snow tonight. I'm going underground with the groundhog.

8:42 am

hego

I'm with you Judi.

8:42 am

Scrabbler

I want snow! We need fresh snow for our trails.

8:42 am

Judi

It's all yours, babe.

8:42 am

The NE corridor is getting beat to Hell this winter.

You can have ours Scrab.

8:43 am

rubyfoo

judi, isn't your icon Chloe from 24?

8:43 am

Nef

You guys have had your share this winter. We've had a slow moving snow storm go through (or still passing through) and have a lot of new snow too. But not as much as you guys

8:43 am

Scrabbler

My nephew just woke up. He has a college class at 11.

8:43 am

Judi

Yes, Ruby, it is. Chloe is my hero.

8:43 am

hego

Same one we're getting Nef.

8:44 am

Chloe is hilarious!

8:44 am

crosshair

crossy stalks mrs b....

8:44 am

rubyfoo

did you see MI5, a series with a similar character, Ruth?

8:44 am

rubyfoo

on BBC

8:44 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy! Are you at work?

8:44 am

Judi

I believe Chloe is perfectly capable of saving the world all by herself, but doesn't want to make all the men too insecure.

8:44 am

crosshair

nope at home today

8:44 am

hego

Crossy work?

8:45 am

Judi

No, Ruby. I'm not familiar with that show.

8:45 am

Scrabbler

Chloe is uninhibited and fearless!

8:45 am

rubyfoo

and Janeane Garofolo tried to be one, much less successfully (but at least she's short, which I like lol)

8:45 am

hego

Who is Mrs B and how can we warn her?

8:45 am

Scrabbler

But I am not very "into" "24" this season--ranking way too high on the Implausibility Meter.

8:45 am

rubyfoo

You would love it! It's like 24 but better and each episode is complete but with the same ongoing cast

8:45 am

Judi

By her own admission, "inappropriately blunt".

8:46 am

rubyfoo

We get series very late here and sometimes in a sort of mishmosh

8:46 am

rubyfoo

like a high-functioning Aspergers'

8:46 am

Scrabbler

I will check out Mi5 on DVD

8:47 am

rubyfoo

it's great but may be a couple of years' old

8:47 am

Judi

Not sure we get MI5 here in the States. I will look for it though.

Atalante

Hi Ata! How is Hobbit doing? And, Ruby, how is your dog?

8:48 am

Scrabbler

Hi Lideola

8:48 am

Judi

Oh, so it's no longer on? If so, I'll look for it on DVD.

8:48 am

rubyfoo

I'll look for it, but haven't seen it listed. How do you say Spooks in French?

8:48 am

Atalante

8:53 am

Scrabbler

In kids we treat scabies (Sarcoptes scabeii is cause, I believe) with an anti-scabies cream (permethrin) + topical steroids. In pets I think Ivermectin injections can cure it.

Poor doggy, my gosh.

8:53 am

Atalante

8:54 am

rubyfoo

I'm lucky I didn't catch it as it is evidently tyransmissible from animals to people

8:57 am

yes,we are going to draw bolood to check her kidneys,then get a boipsy done,and if it is confirmed we have to decide if her old kidneys can withstand the anestetic

8:58 am

crosshair

if her kidneys are so so we wont bother with biopsy

8:58 am

westford

hope she'll make it crossy

8:58 am

yes,we do not want to prolong her life just for us and she ends up with a year of suffering

9:00 am

Tough decision must be made about suffering, quality of life, potential for recovery...

crosshair

9:00 am

crosshair

cause she is 15 not 2

9:01 am

Haz1558

If she were a younger cat, it might be more hopeful, her age is against her, plus the thought of putting her through a lot without the guarantee of success.

since most of us are addicted stands to reason we'd have an enabler lol

If you are new to this game, you can check out the "help" page right above the chat; and I've found that if you go to the friends of Babble section (under the tile stats grid) you will find AngleSong's Babble Page. I think that that is the best source for newbies.

10:26 am

Haz1558

Sue Anne, if you look at the tile stats and then at the grid, you'll see that they match up. When it says 0/7 at top left D, it means that there are 7 words beginning with d coming from tile. As you go along, you should see the numbers changing.

10:27 am

Haz1558

It is strange, ruru, but then, this IS babble.

10:27 am

It was a very different game then. Most times few of anybody finished. Minilists by letter were posted along the way. In fact, originally there were no tile stats either. Sprite was the queen of all Babblers then.

Haz1558

Dishes were unwashed, children neglected, dogs pined without walks.

10:33 am

Haz1558

There wasn't the same expectation of finishing, that was the big difference.

10:33 am

westford

lol sounds like life around here

10:33 am

jan

seriously though...

10:33 am

Nef

Sprite is still pretty much the queen of babblers, isn't she?

10:33 am

FMitch

lickety started posting his stats back in April 2006, before that BrandyJack was the first person to regularly post lists and before that was the dawn of time.

10:33 am

periwinkle

down to 100 left with no list

10:33 am

westford

I think so nef I don't think she uses the list to this day

10:33 am

periwinkle

dawn of time, ha ha

10:34 am

FMitch

:) Hi peri

10:34 am

mkg

great peri. i have 156 left. will never make it.

10:34 am

periwinkle

pretty daffodils, FM

10:34 am

westford

just heard airlines are going to charge coach passengers $ 8.00 for a blanket

10:34 am

periwinkle

I will finish. I am determined

10:34 am

jan

In some ways, the list seems to create a lot of anxiety about having to finish. So don't worry, mkg, be happy.

10:34 am

periwinkle

what??? charging for blankets!!

10:35 am

FMitch

Thanks peri, am being optomistic about spring.

10:35 am

westford

hi FM they are pretty

10:35 am

FMitch

Hey westie

10:35 am

jan

Yeah, and pillows too. RyanAir is talking about charging to use the toilets. For real...

10:35 am

jmbdobie2

Hi all! I was NOT going to do this puzzle. I was only going to lurk and maybe chat. But here I sit with a big block of reasonably free time and the shakes from trying to NOT play. Oh well - no self control! Here I go.

10:35 am

westford

yes peri, I'll bring my own

10:35 am

FMitch

good luck jbd.

10:36 am

Nef

jan, I agree. When I think I HAVE to finish a grid I get stressed; when I decide I play for fun, I really enjoy it more

10:36 am

gramma

Hi all. jmb, why wouldn't you play?

10:36 am

westford

hi gram

10:36 am

Haz1558

The toilets thing is a non-starter but I reckon Ryanair floated the idea to make other increases more palatable.

10:36 am

jmbdobie2

well - I do work and the puzzle is so long...

10:36 am

FMitch

Oh I thin kRyan Air are already charging a Â£1 to use the loo in Europe

10:36 am

jan

Especially now that we've pooh pohhed finishing anxiety.

10:36 am

rururocks

they must be "flushed" with pride on that decision haz...

10:36 am

westford

oh for goodness sakes

10:37 am

gramma

Just play when you can and enjoy. Don't even try to finish.

10:37 am

FMitch

or was that just that was what they were thinking of charging?

10:37 am

jmbdobie2

yes - it does help the anxiety!

10:37 am

Haz1558

Seriously, FM? Â£1? That's daylight robbery.

10:37 am

westford

I can remember being charged in public restrooms

10:37 am

FMitch

Yup remember it from the news last year but now not sure if it was implemented or not.

10:37 am

gramma

Speaking of not finishing....el7? please.

10:38 am

jan

Haz, believe it or not, my sources at Boeing say that they have inquired about a configuration of the plane with only one lav and with a lock that is coin operated. So far they haven't started but they are clearly laying plans

10:38 am

Haz1558

Yes, but if you're on a plane, you don't really have much choice but to use the facilities they provide.

10:38 am

westford

picture this..I was 8 months pregnant, really had to go, didn't have a dime in my purse...so I crawled under the door

10:38 am

gramma

I'd pay more if it was clean and sanitary.

10:38 am

FMitch

oh westie! :)

10:39 am

Haz1558

Did I ever tell you the story of my daughter, the day of her driving test and wet cement in the loos?

10:39 am

westford

that would have been one for youtube

10:39 am

westford

oh no haz

10:39 am

FMitch

oh noooo but do tell!

10:39 am

jmbdobie2

will they sell frequent squatter passes?

10:40 am

FMitch

lol

10:40 am

westford

lol dobie

10:40 am

Haz1558

Well, daughter was very nervous and, naturally, wanted to use the toilet. Trouble was, there was a 'Cleaning' sign outside the door. I urged her to ignore it, since it was an emergency, she stepped forward and realised that workmen were laying new tiles. She left a beautiful footprint....

10:40 am

Nef

I wonder what would happen if people started peeing in their drink cups? Think they'd change their tunes fast?

10:41 am

westford

too funny nef

10:41 am

jan

There was a lot of panic when airlines were having to have a "nobody out of their seats for the last hour" rule. Threats to use pee cups were made. The TSA saw the light and left it up to individual pilots...

10:41 am

FMitch

if she passed the test then she was installed in the urinary hall of fame then

10:42 am

Haz1558

That still left her needing to go, so we ran to any likely showrooms or shops nearby (it was in an industrial estate). I basically barged in, told them I had an emergency, could she use the toilet. Permission granted, all was well. Back to the test centre, but alas, failure....

10:42 am

rururocks

anyone de 6/42

10:42 am

Actually there's a handy little device called a urinel that lets ladies pee like gents.

1:45 pm

jmcnrick

am trying to decide if i am driving to upstate NY tomorrow

1:47 pm

Judi

jmc - we're supposed to get another storm tonight. You probably won't be able to go anywhere tomorrow.

1:47 pm

jmcnrick

sigh I know -- one of my friends is leaving now rather than waiting til tomorrow

1:47 pm

jmcnrick

I really should go to this meeting but. . . .

1:48 pm

Judi

The east coast is doomed.

1:48 pm

jmcnrick

i was hoping they would cancel the meeting so i wouldn't have to choose what to do

1:49 pm

jmcnrick

what i was going to say is ru should have sen me this morning -- I cam back to find someone had MOVED my step ladder and parked in my place

1:50 pm

jmcnrick

I completely lost it after a tense hour of driving my sister around

1:50 pm

Judi

You used a step ladder to save your parking space???

1:51 pm

jmcnrick

yes -- i couldn't find a folding chair -- it was a short wooden one and obvious

1:51 pm

Judi

Um, isn't that illegal?

1:51 pm

jmcnrick

I doubt it

1:52 pm

jmitch

boo-yah.....fireworks. Been slogging at it ALL day!

1:52 pm

jmcnrick

I spent three hours digging my car out

1:52 pm

Judi

Oh. Was it reserved parking for residents, or just a spot on the street?

1:52 pm

jmcnrick

whoo hooo jmitch!

1:52 pm

flosey

WTG jmitch, good for you

1:54 pm

flosey

must take a break

1:54 pm

jmcnrick

bye flosey

1:54 pm

jmcnrick

it was a spot on a residential street

1:56 pm

Judi

I know here in Delaware and in PA, they don't let you save residential spots. Public parking. But, I can see why you'd be upset after you spent all that time digging out. Perhaps it would be worth it to shovel the snow back onto the car that stole your spot.

1:57 pm

jmcnrick

look if there was not any snow I would never save teh spot and I put up with people parking in front of my house all the time -- there are two churches near by

1:57 pm

jmcnrick

it is the norm that if there is more than a foot of snow and you shovel out your spot that you can save it with a chair or other marker

1:58 pm

jmcnrick

when i drove up and honked my horn he came running around the corner cause he knew he had no business parking there

1:59 pm

Judi

So, did he move then?

1:59 pm

jmcnrick

yes and my neighbors all came out and yelled at him as did all the people driving by

2:00 pm

Judi

Awesome! Nothing like an angry mob to set someone straight!

6:55 pm

Rows

i just started

6:55 pm

Rows

so i just have 92 words so far

6:55 pm

Bugsaw

HI Nef. I am sorry I started it before realizing that Lickety is down

6:57 pm

Nef

I started this AM; about 10 hrs ago. I left for wuite a while; am now here for another hour, then on the run again. I have 168 left; hope I can whittle that downbefore I have to go

6:58 pm

Nef

Bugs, several people have the list in their icons: Babble Rabble, Unea, Gremlin, Jac and maybe others. Hopefully that will help

6:58 pm

hurshy

and it is in babanon.

6:59 pm

Bugsaw

I started half an hour ago and now realize that I will never have a hope at finishing but I will keep plodding along.

6:59 pm

Nef

Thanks, hurshy. I didn't know that

7:00 pm

Bugsaw

I appreciate it VERY MUCH when people post their list but I like the way Lickety pops a found word into its correct space so I can narrow down the third letter in a word.

7:00 pm

Jellen

I have it in my profile, too...Hello, everyone...

7:01 pm

maxmaxmax

wow, this shit is LAAAME!

7:01 pm

Bugsaw

HI Jellen. What is your news today?

7:01 pm

Jellen

I agree, there's no substitute for Lickety!

7:01 pm

Aloyisius

I thank them all ! Am now on Gremlinn's list.. trying to finish up after a very busy day . I surely hope Lickety's daughter is ok - saw in the chat that she has pneumonia. Hi Babblers

7:01 pm

Nef

true, Bugs. But I guess his dtr. is in the hospital (someone said with pneumonia) and family does come first when this is an unpaid gift from him

7:01 pm

Jellen

No real news here...

7:02 pm

Jellen

Hi, Aloy

7:02 pm

Bugsaw

Absolutely family comes first! I had no idea. Poor girl. It hurts

7:03 pm

Aloyisius

Hi Jellen!

I hate to admit it, but my phantom is "awkward" tonight

7:06 pm

stidmama

7:10 pm

Aloyisius

ahem, Rows.. off to the PB for you! >>>>>>>>>>>>>PB

7:10 pm

stidmama

the migraine is better, but I didn't make it to class today... Mother drove me there but I was nervous because one of the buildings had a fire alarm going off, so she took me home. Just as well, I was exhausted just from riding in the car. On the plus side... I had a great nap this afternoon!

7:10 pm

Rows

PB?

7:10 pm

Nef

it's okay. We all do it at some time or another (I think I do at least once a day)

7:10 pm

stidmama

Penalty Box Rows... and welcome to the madness *puts choclit cupcakes in PB*

7:11 pm

periwinkle

hope you feel better soon, stid. migraines are the pits. only had a few in my whole life

7:11 pm

Nef

there's hot cocoa and marshmellows there too

7:11 pm

Rows

i have been here before.. i used to play all the time

7:11 pm

Aloyisius

so sorry about the migraine, stid.. my daughter has suffered from them for years, and I know it is so disruptive (as well as painfull)

7:12 pm

stidmama

hm. "ariel?" *wicked mama grin and joins Rows in PB* I rather like hot cocoa...

7:12 pm

Nef

Rows, check out the PB here: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini
.php?id=6864

7:12 pm

stidmama

it's a doozy, worst ever (have had migraines for 30 years). BUT it will end eventually, and I have already written to the doc to see if we can try something else to keep them away.

7:13 pm

stidmama

oh -- check out my profile pic, just changed it to show stidkid#1 and stidgmere.

7:13 pm

Bugsaw

It is supposed to be EvaNadine's birthday today so you acan take the cake from my icon into the PB. I am sure I will be there soon

7:13 pm

Rows

haha

7:13 pm

Nef

stid, mine finally went away once I finished with menpause (I know, TMI)

7:13 pm

Rows

that did not exist when i played this like a year ago

7:13 pm

Aloyisius

oh... wishing relief for you, stid! ((( )))

7:13 pm

stidmama

oh! EvaN!!!! *sending happy Bday wishes by thought-wave*

7:14 pm

stidmama

LOL I am looking forward to that part of my life for SO many reasons, Nef! (the end of it, not the duration of it)

7:14 pm

Nef

My gosh, stid! He's all growed up!

7:14 pm

stidmama

there. I am now officialy down to only 298 words.

7:15 pm

stidmama

yes Nef, they have a habit of doing that, though sometimes I despaired...

7:15 pm

Nef

I remeber chatting with him in the past many times. He CAN'T be that old!

7:15 pm

stidmama

I think he's pretty handsome, like a young tom.

7:15 pm

stidmama

of course what Nef means is... "WE can't be that old!" LOL

7:16 pm

stidmama

the difference in looks between him and Tom is that tom is taller, had dark (not blond) hair ... what is left of it.

7:16 pm

Bugsaw

I had to close and reopen to see them stid. He is very grown up and handsome all dressed up.

7:17 pm

Nef

so true, stid. You and I are just young pups ourselves. I swear I'm only a young 30-something until I see myself in the mirror

7:17 pm

stidmama

'zactly, Nef. When we grow up, it will be such a shock!

7:18 pm

periwinkle

thre are at least 19 re words, arrrghhh!!!

7:18 pm

Nef

(and you would just be a young teen --or younger--if that were true)

7:18 pm

well, my profile says I am "ten" so... yep. I had kids when I was rather youthful.

It worked but my burners do not increase in heat the way I thought they did. At the end of a setting, say 4, it only gets to maybe 167. If I want more, I turn it to 5 or 6 but again there is a temperature limit.

Mother gave me a book for the holidays, called "Bringing up Geeks" by Marybeth Hicks. I am about halfway (with all the reading I do for class, the other things go slowly). It has a lot of good ideas in it.

7:44 pm

lynxxx

ummm Stid, err that last word

7:44 pm

stidmama

um, Mother? *points to PB* bring your caramels to share...

7:45 pm

sorry, stig!

7:45 pm

Bugsaw

stid you are a whizz!

7:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

i tasted salted caramels. people rave but i was unimpressed

7:47 pm

Bugsaw

Also stid, a few of us were visiting here the other night and we decided that there should be a meeting of the west coast Babblers in August and you and your mother were invited!

7:47 pm

stidgmere

Honestly, it was the correct word for the meaning in that sentence. One cannot avoid every word in the grid always. Okay, PB if necessary but I get to bring my hockey stick and the caramels.

7:47 pm

stidmama

Mother used oodles' recipe, TO. It was apparently a real hit. Stidkid has quite a sugar high. Good thing they are going to the taekwondo place soon.

7:48 pm

stidgmere

If there is a reunion in August, thank you for inviting me. I shall mark August on my calendar as a "do not touch" month until the dates are set.

7:48 pm

where will this meeting be?

'evening, babblers *diving in*

7:48 pm

jmc said she would try to fly out and pick up Pini in Oregon and they would drive together to Olympia. I am willing to pick up flosey and jilli (if they want to come too) for the trip down and we hoped you and your mere would join us too. (As well as any others who can make it too.) What do you think?

7:49 pm

stidmama

thanks Bugs -- we might also zip up to the islands in June briefly, Mother and I, just to visit with folks up there.

7:49 pm

stidmama

we are ALWAYS up for babble parties!

hi welki.. gl to you!

Olympia seemed kind of central to us all TO. Are you close too?

The final date seems to be up to jmc since she lives on the west coast and wants to come too. She will be in Kenya in the summer but thot she could make it in August sometime if she could get back and book some kind of a business trip this way to help with expenses.

7:51 pm

stidmama

there is also talk of the san diego area, since that is where tor and DR are.

7:51 pm

Hi jilli! The plan was to meet in Olympia sometime in August. I would be willing to pick up you and flosey so we could drive down together and share costs. I am not sure I can afford San Diego, altho that would be fun.

Cut grapefruit in half
Shave a small bit off round part of both halves, so they will sit flat in a pan
Put both halves in a pan (I put a foil bowl around the bottom and sides of them to keep the pan from getting sticky)

Section and carve the insides to your heart's content, but don't let the knife pierce through the skin.

Add brown sugar and honey to the top of each half.

Broil for about 10-15 minutes, till the top is nicely singed and gooey.

Often the syrup falls off and runs under the grapefruit, so I transfer the grapefruit to a bowl and pour the goo on top from the foil.
