3:11 am

rumplestiltskin

Did anyone else have trouble yesterday? I couldn't get it to take any words and when I typed in a word a whole list of words came up below the one I typed. The chat box wouldn't load either. I love those short ones and really wanted to play.

3:12 am

flosey

rumple, did you go out and come back in?

3:12 am

flosey

that really sounds strange

3:13 am

rumplestiltskin

I even tried shutting down the computer and rebooting it, still nothing. Who would I report something like that to?

3:13 am

flosey

Dr.God might know rumple

3:14 am

Thanks, I tried Lickety but no luck there.

The Colour Orange - don't understand, do you

3:25 am

grannyrose

okay, well i'm off to prepare dinner, salad and chicken cordon bleu tonight

3:53 am

SamanthaJoy

I'm more than halfway and I think that NBT is too grand a goal for me in a grid with this many vowels

3:55 am

rubyfoo

hello again

3:55 am

rubyfoo

I like this grid so much more than yesterday's, which I found almost impossible

3:56 am

rubyfoo

is statin capitalized? I thought it was a common drug name

3:57 am

forwardbyfaith

anyone have the stats for the e in the upper right hand corner?

3:58 am

rubyfoo

hello faith

3:58 am

forwardbyfaith

hi ruby

3:58 am

rubyfoo

I don't have a word for that e, even tho there's only one!

3:59 am

forwardbyfaith

I need it for nbt - i'll keep looking :)

3:59 am

rubyfoo

me, too

3:59 am

SamanthaJoy

Sorry, I don't have any of the corners; vowels are my bane

3:59 am

rubyfoo

my faves, were the q words!

4:00 am

lynxxx

et7 - if you hve the v7, you will get it. Hello

4:01 am

rubyfoo

hello lynxxxxx

4:01 am

rubyfoo

I hv both v7's but will have to monkey for a while

4:03 am

lynxxx

Use the v7.44

4:03 am

SamanthaJoy

I have *a* V7, but it doesn't seem to lend itself to an E7

4:04 am

rubyfoo

got an et6 out of it. Is that a fabric like cheesecloth?

4:04 am

lynxxx

it is the same end

4:05 am

SamanthaJoy

I even have *a* V7.44, and I have an E6 out of it, and yes, Ruby, that's roughly what the word means

4:05 am

rubyfoo

lazy monkeys!

4:06 am

rubyfoo

I thought it was French lol

4:06 am

SamanthaJoy

I still have those other two peky corners to go for NBT

4:06 am

SamanthaJoy

pesky*

4:06 am

lynxxx

that was your corner E?

4:07 am

rubyfoo

I think the et6 was the top right corner

4:07 am

SamanthaJoy

That was one. I'm down to the I now, and stuck like an SUV in mud

4:08 am

rubyfoo

me too on the bottom left, both e's

4:08 am

SamanthaJoy

oh, who knew that was a word?

4:08 am

lynxxx

Glad to have helped

4:08 am

SamanthaJoy

thank you

4:09 am

rubyfoo

this is a funny grid

4:09 am

rubyfoo

pini

4:09 am

rubyfoo

sorry

4:09 am

Ouwachita

how many words today?

4:10 am

SamanthaJoy

Funny ha-ha or funny "there are too many vowels"?

4:10 am

rubyfoo

132

4:10 am

Ouwachita

thanks ruby

4:10 am

rubyfoo

funny peculiar, too many vowels and t's

4:12 am

SamanthaJoy

we ought to eliminate vowels from the language. or in other words: w ght t lmnt vwls frm th lngg

4:12 am

rubyfoo

I think you hv to be from Wales to do that

4:13 am

SamanthaJoy

Nah, they've just kept all the vowels the more sensible languages have eliminated. "Double U" is apparently a vowel in Welsh. :)

4:14 am

rubyfoo

I wrestle with French every day and what's strange about the language is that is has too many verbs and not enough nouns

4:14 am

rubyfoo

not sensible at all

4:15 am

SamanthaJoy

what I find crazy abut it is the lack of possessives

4:15 am

rubyfoo

ooh, I just found a lovely mi6, on my own, for once!

4:16 am

SamanthaJoy

on the other hand, they probably don't have the grocer's apostrophe, since they've never had to figure out, say, whether it's "Charles' crown" or Charles's crown"

4:16 am

rubyfoo

hahah

4:16 am

SamanthaJoy

there's an mi6? well, there's also an in 8, so I can help GET YOU STARTED on that

4:17 am

rubyfoo

ok mi6, letter

4:17 am

rubyfoo

I got the mi8 from the chog blushing

4:17 am

rubyfoo

all twisty, the mi6

4:17 am

SamanthaJoy

um, the one I have that means letter is MI7

4:17 am

rubyfoo

no, mi7 (can't count)

4:18 am

SamanthaJoy

oh, ok, I won't hunt for it any longer. :)

4:18 am

rubyfoo

me, too, dumb nel or maybe fooey nel

4:18 am

SamanthaJoy

Ruby, here is my sincere and lasting wish for you:

4:19 am

SamanthaJoy

May that be the biggest mistake, with the worst and farthest-reaching consequences, that you make this year.

4:19 am

rubyfoo

very nice and thank you samantha!

4:19 am

SamanthaJoy

It's all about perspective. :)

4:20 am

rubyfoo

that sounds like an Irish toast which I can't exactly remember about dying and the Devil not knowing you're dead!

4:21 am

SamanthaJoy

Well I never claimed the sentiment was entirely original to me--rumor has it that there's nothing new under the sun

4:21 am

rubyfoo

*and all fiction is about love and death*

4:21 am

rubyfoo

and/or

4:22 am

SamanthaJoy

well, sometimes they throw in spaceships and zombies, but basically, I have to agree

4:22 am

rubyfoo

I guess I'm too old for spaceships but zombies are already dead, n'est-ce pas?

4:23 am

SamanthaJoy

1) You're never too old for spaceships, and 2) Zombies never die!

4:23 am

rubyfoo

lol

4:24 am

SamanthaJoy

As much as I am enjoying this chat, it's 4:30 here and I should probably get an hour or two of sleep so as to be semi-finctional tomorrow

4:24 am

rubyfoo

somebody is thumping (stomping) around upstairs, so I had better go and make him a Campari/soda

4:24 am

Nancy Boy

I hasten to interrupt, Samantha, they do if you drive a spade through the brain ;) Shaun of the Dead says so!

4:24 am

SamanthaJoy

g'night now

We are having a major snow storm here. It has been snowing for a day and a half and very very windy.

6:55 am

Uneaixoise

i've read about that, Annie . . . ugh!

6:55 am

lynxxx

mmm No Spring for Annie though

6:55 am

Uneaixoise

are you all nice and snug inside Casa Annie??

6:56 am

Eva

thanks lynxxx and unea!

6:57 am

Eva

we're finally over the storm here annie, so there's hope. About 16 inches and still lots of wind, but the snow has stopped. Now it's threatening to rain. Anyone for luge runs on my driveway?

6:57 am

Anniebrook

Yes, I am in my ivory tower looking down on a white world.

6:57 am

kje

7:00 am

Anniebrook

very much so, kje

7:00 am

kje

please be careful, annie...

7:01 am

kje

une! LOL! great icon!!! is that off the net, or somewhere you went?

7:01 am

Anniebrook

I dont think I will be venturing out today. I might go up on the boardwalk tomorrow to see the beach and ocean. Wild and wonderful.

7:02 am

kje

sounds lovely... but be careful... we see too many falls in this weather, and they do not usually have good results as we age

7:03 am

Anniebrook

I will be careful and thanks for your concern. I love walking in the snow before it gets all slushy.

7:03 am

kje

it is magical... and the wonder of a perfectly untouched snowscape never seems to fade

7:04 am

Uneaixoise

hey, kje, actually just updated icon -- that sign was sent to me by a friend a few days ago LOL

7:04 am

kje

that sign is fantastic!... reminds me of dealing with my students... one must be specific and clear!

7:04 am

Uneaixoise

take care, annie! I have to get going -- long busy day -- back tonite for last 36 words -- happy babbling to everyone! *poof*

hope all of you in the ne stay warm, i've been seeing the news!

7:07 am

Anniebrook

hi red!

7:07 am

Eva

nice and snug inside. And we're pretty used to this here. The rest of the winter was bizarre - little snow here and the more southern states getting blasted.

7:07 am

redturtlehead

pours coffee for everyone who wants it, hot chocolate for others.

7:08 am

Anniebrook

thanks for the coffee, red. Delicious.

7:08 am

kje

enjoying my peets as we babble, red

7:08 am

redturtlehead

Can I tell you all about my day yesterday? I think I need to tell someone.

7:09 am

Anniebrook

please do, red.

7:09 am

kje

vent away, red

7:09 am

redturtlehead

We had a very busy day at work. And while at work I lost my car keys. I have a spare set of car keys at home, and of coursemy house keys were locked in my car.....

7:10 am

redturtlehead

kje, during the day I had 5 patients, including a lady on a vent with a 20% EF, in ards/pulmonary Oedema.....on an ativan drip due to the propofol shortage....

7:11 am

kje

better ativan than propofol anyway ; )

7:11 am

redturtlehead

any way, one of the night nurses amazingly- just handed me his car keys told me to go home and get the spare...

7:11 am

redturtlehead

I had to get the apartment people to unlock my apartment....

7:11 am

redturtlehead

then I had to drive back to work and pick up my car....

7:11 am

kje

how nice!

7:12 am

redturtlehead

Now this morning....

7:12 am

kje

PITA, but nice that people helped!

7:12 am

redturtlehead

oneo f my free range eggs had half a chicken in it....

7:12 am

kje

oh no

7:12 am

redturtlehead

I broke the disposal in the house!!

7:12 am

kje

OMG!!!!!

7:12 am

kje

OMG!!!

7:12 am

redturtlehead

and I toasted my toast until it burnt...

7:13 am

kje

that would completely put me off eggs, which I barely tolerate to begin with

7:13 am

wildcat17

I call a do-over

7:13 am

kje

red and the terrible horrible no good very bad day...

7:13 am

redturtlehead

I am wondering about my karma. I also remembered I forgot to chart an aspirin that I gave!!!!

7:14 am

lynxxx

that's 3 things, your day will be OK now Red

7:14 am

kje

karma, schwarma... whatev... take a break, step back, and clear your head... you'll be fine

7:14 am

Anniebrook

whew!

7:14 am

redturtlehead

BUt, have to say, the person just givining me his car.....I;ve only been there for a month, so that was really really amazing and nice!

7:14 am

wildcat17

very. nice to be reminded that there are good people in this world

7:14 am

kje

very nice... it is great to work with sane people!

7:15 am

redturtlehead

I found out after I got back that apparently he keeps a gun in his car, so good thing I was not stopped, would have been a big surprise!

7:15 am

redturtlehead

I'm going to get him a gas card..

7:15 am

kje

we would have bailed you out red!

7:15 am

lawyer-1

buy him ammo instead

7:16 am

redturtlehead

lolkje. soryy to vent, but it was just so odd!

7:16 am

kje

not really venting... that is a truly weird day

7:17 am

kje

and I am sure your patient did not end up with ASA overload due to not charting one pill

7:17 am

redturtlehead

It was not easy. I was grateful to God that the way to solve the problems...

7:17 am

redturtlehead

lawyer can anyone buy ammo?

7:18 am

lawyer-1

i wouldn't know...i avoid guns and anything related thereto

7:19 am

redturtlehead

Myself as well....which is why it would have shocked me to have discovered the gun in there...I'm in the middle of the 64 days of nonviolence!

7:19 am

crosshair

i dont know about down there,but if you own the car ,or are lent the car,you as the driver are responsible for anything in that vehicle,guns,knives or drugs

7:19 am

crosshair

good morning everyone

7:19 am

7:39 am

Mom

Hi Norma, sorry I don't have it but will help you look.

7:40 am

Norma

Thanks mom

7:40 am

Anniebrook

I think its a plural, norma

7:40 am

dan2bit

7:40 am

Mom

is it the plural of beef, pork, chicken products

7:40 am

fuquayvarina

chicken, pork, beef...

7:41 am

Norma

Thanks Annie I had just got it ... thanks rina

7:41 am

Mom

Hi Fuquay

7:41 am

Norma

I was having a very senior moment lol

7:41 am

fuquayvarina

Hi Mom

7:42 am

kje

hate that saying

7:43 am

Mom

{{{KJE}}}, good morning. In the area where I live people have brain farts instead of senior moments

7:43 am

kje

brain farts is better... senior moment is ageist

7:43 am

Mom

which is a disgusting saying. Hate the word fart

7:43 am

Norma

I will have to remember that one it is quite apropriate....

7:44 am

kje

LOL mom

7:44 am

fuquayvarina

except the experience is more like brain constipation....

7:44 am

Mom

so true Faquay

7:44 am

kje

LOL fuq!

7:44 am

Mom

Fuquay* sorry

7:44 am

fuquayvarina

being unfortunately familiar with it....

7:45 am

fuquayvarina

and I can't even call it a senior moment yet... can't wait until I have that excuse...

7:46 am

Mom

I grayed in my mid 30, am now 52 and went into Wendy's last week and they gave me a senior discount

7:47 am

kje

LOL mom

7:47 am

Mom

My mom thought it was a hoot

7:48 am

kje

bbiab

7:48 am

Norma

When we visited Florida in 1995 we went into McDonalds and my husband has been white haired since he was in his thirties.. they gave him a senior discount he wasn't even 60 at the time he was horrified we just thought it was funny

7:50 am

Minveryork

Hello all! I am not babbling yet,just wanted to let you know that I posted a list with point and word totals.

7:50 am

crosshair

at this stage in my life,the 25 year old honeys call me "sir" quite depressing really.had one ask me if i needed help carrying my bag to the car lol

7:51 am

Norma

You are lucky cross in the Uk the kids are more likely to mug you and steal your bag lol

7:52 am

Norma

Hi Minver thanks

7:52 am

crosshair

poor norma..i live far enough north that im not likely to get held up every time i go out the door

7:54 am

Norma

It is getting worse here.. our Government lets so many immigrants in and there isn't the work so they rob and mug and the vulnerable members of any society are usually the Seniors

7:55 am

Mom

oh Norma and Crossy that is funny

7:55 am

Mom

Norma, that is awful.

7:56 am

Norma

I have been all over the world to third world countries and many places that are not classed as 'safe' and never felt as threatened as I do in our local town at night.

7:57 am

crosshair

now that is sad indeed

7:57 am

Boobear

good morning all

7:57 am

Norma

7:58 am

Norma

Morning Boo

7:58 am

Mom

Good morning Boobear

7:58 am

bonkler

the only time i felt threatened at all in the uk was from a few chavs and an old drunken scot that wanted to be my "friend".

7:58 am

crosshair

8:45 am

hego

Did you get snow, Judi?

8:45 am

Judi

Thanks, Dan. Got those. Only need one more actually.

8:46 am

Judi

Oy, Hego. Yes we got MORE snow. I would say about four or five inches. But, it's drifting quite a bit. Still snowing now.

8:46 am

hego

We're buried again.

8:47 am

crosshair

we are buried judi..3 feet or so last night,we are snowed in our parking lot

8:47 am

hego

Crossy, where do you live in Canada?

8:48 am

crosshair

3 hours north of toronto in collingwood by georgian bay

8:48 am

Joanne123

wow crossy

8:48 am

hego

Sounds nice.

8:48 am

Judi

Crossy lives in the boonies.

8:48 am

bichon

hego, you got the snow, we got the rain

8:49 am

crosshair

it would be nice..if i could get anywhere lol

8:49 am

crosshair

the water main to our building also burst last night

8:49 am

hego

Bichon, as someone said to me once, you don't have to shovel rain. lol

8:49 am

Joanne123

hubby in Dundalk and coming home today..hope he makes it..hummm

8:49 am

hego

WOW, Crossy.

8:50 am

Judi

Oh no, Crossy! Put your ice skates on!

8:50 am

bichon

Right hego, but it wasn't fun. Bichon wouldn't go outside in the rain cause it created havoc with his curls. I had to carry him to the curb and stay there til he did his business

8:50 am

crosshair

we are lucky though hego,as we are on the ground floor,we are still(for now) getting water from the internal pipes,those on upper floors are not getting a drop

8:51 am

hego

Your dog is vain about his hair?

8:51 am

Kenny Chuck

Need a clue for the upper right corner e.

8:52 am

crosshair

so 3 feet of snow in the parking lot...2 feet of solid ice on the road(i see the township trucks are on it though)

8:52 am

bichon

you betcha hego. He is a dog of Spanish royalty after all

8:52 am

hego

:-D

8:53 am

hego

Sounds like a weird day in Crossy's neighborhood.

8:53 am

hego

8:53 am

crosshair

lol bichon,we have a kitty that likes to do his business outside..i let him out for 2 minutes and he had all theese clumps of snow stuck to him lol

8:53 am

crosshair

very weid hego

8:54 am

HarryHood

is he7 related to he8?

8:54 am

bichon

Biscuit has a sow suit, but it doesn't cover his paws

8:54 am

bichon

* snow suit. The "n" on my lap top isn't working. Funny that i could dress him like a pig

8:54 am

crosshair

lol the DOG has a snow suit?? lol

8:55 am

hego

and no shoes

8:55 am

bichon

crossy, you would want him to have clumps of snow. Besides, how would I find him in the snow, he's all white

8:55 am

crosshair

we actually use "shoes" for sled dog competitions so the skin from the pads do not get frostbite and peel off on the ice

8:56 am

hego

Eeewwww

8:56 am

crosshair

they are more like teas cozeys for dog feet

8:56 am

bichon

good idea crossy, mine is always licking the sand/salt from the road off his paws. Not good for a dog with kidney disease

8:56 am

crosshair

no,not at all bichon

9:32 am

we are not euro lol and we use metric :)

9:32 am

It's funny to me that Canadians keep so much of British culture [like spelling and the Queen], but speak more like Americans

9:32 am

Aloyisius

well, time for me to go too.. happy babbling all, see you next grid.. (think the three of them should have a laptop at the table and check in with us so we can join in the fun through cyberspace)

9:33 am

Judi

You are in your own little world up there, Crossy.

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

and i don't think they speak like us at all!

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

crossy is in his own little world where he is ;)

9:33 am

Judi

And I think Crossy should go to the PB for using half of a word.

9:33 am

bichon

To me, a Canadian accent is just as far from a New York City accent as a Boston accent is

The only place I've ever been in the US where I couldn't understand the accent was in Charlottesville, VA (near Monticello). People spoke with such a southern, mumbly garble - it sounded like a foreign language.

Hubby has a cousin who was born and raised in Upstate NY then moved to Tennessee when she was about 30. She suddenly started drawling all over the place. Apparently she was easily indoctrinated.

2:43 pm

Nef

I don't know about that, ADHD, but he modeled her after his female relatives

2:44 pm

Atalante

some people just empathise better with the opposite sex, I think

2:44 pm

lbdawger

yes, nef. maxine is a compilation of the women in his life, starting with his aunt.

2:44 pm

ADHDWordLover

oh, but NYC has it way worse than we do... they've already got a foot and a half I hear. my son and his family disembarked at 10am and they're still not home (we're only a little over an hour away)

I go through phases. Sometimes, I use it a lot. It's very handy if I want to show someone something new and exciting I bought. Or new art I did. But really? I only ever *really* use it with 1 person. Maybe 2 - 3 times a week

2:50 pm

periwinkle

how much did you pay for it and how much are you asking for it do?

2:50 pm

CiociaJudy

bye Nan

2:50 pm

hurshy

well you see, people are allowed to come to the US for like, pretty much any old reason, if they are coming for 90 days or less. UNLESS they are coming to study, in which case they have to do lots of paperwork and pay fees and so forth. and one might be tempted to just say, "i'm just here for a vacation". but in an official capacity, of course, one cannot encourage people to do such things. except, my supervisor doesn't see this point.

do you have to go thru another site inorder to connect for others to see you?

2:51 pm

crosshair

oh lol,thought you were going to tell me he was smuggling opium hehe

2:51 pm

Atalante

no, I use msn instant messenger

2:51 pm

hurshy

and she's annoyed with ME for NOT telling them to circumvent this admittedly ridiculous law.

2:52 pm

Nef

I use mine to chat with a friend on Yahho chat, lbd. Mine cost less than $30 at geeks.com

2:52 pm

ADHDWordLover

i have 2 actually. one i'm giving to my grandson. a kodak one from k-mart (16.00) and one from radioshack (sale 13.75)

2:52 pm

crosshair

my brother and i use skype for live talk and video;0

2:52 pm

periwinkle

11 left, bbl

2:53 pm

ADHDWordLover

i'm sure shipping will be cheap. i only want to get my money back. i bought them on sale, so i shouldn't have a problem

2:53 pm

lbdawger

i didn't know skype did video

2:53 pm

ADHDWordLover

they don't weight very much; both are unopened. are you interested peri or anyone?

2:53 pm

crosshair

indeed ibd and it is quite good

2:53 pm

crosshair

for free

2:54 pm

CiociaJudy

Oh, Skype is free? Oprah uses Skype! LOL

2:54 pm

crosshair

we use it mostly for clear good instant voice communication

2:54 pm

hurshy

i mean, the government is stupid. a) if it's less than 90 days, why single out study, when you're perfectly happy to let people come and lounge around or whatever? b) why would you set up a system in which you just take people's word for in order to do the easy thing and just make it so tempting to NOT tell the truth when you know they aren't going to find out anyway? it's like, if you're honest, you will suffer, but if you lie to us, have a ball!

2:55 pm

CadFan

Iknow that, at least at this University - you cannot study for any period of time without a Student Visa - a Visitor Visa won't do it

2:55 pm

crosshair

cause yakking back and forth from cota rica would kill us lol

2:55 pm

hurshy

what if it's not an official university course, and not for credit, cad?

2:56 pm

lbdawger

so with skype you just need a speaker and microphone, right?

2:56 pm

hurshy

you have to have a webcam, of course, in order for skype video to work...

2:56 pm

crosshair

yup

2:56 pm

crosshair

indeed hurshy

2:56 pm

ADHDWordLover

n't that what skype is? live video feed?

2:56 pm

hurshy

skype is a software.

2:56 pm

crosshair

and remember skype to skype is free,just if you dial a land line it costs

2:57 pm

CadFan

Even then - you cannot audit or register for a course. Even someone who comes as a spouse - their spouse is here on a student visa - they are not. They have to change their visa before they are permitted to register

2:57 pm

crosshair

if every babbler got skype we could all be up on vidoe and chatting for free lol

2:58 pm

CadFan

WHat organization is offering the course?

2:58 pm

hurshy

yes, well, that's what i thought based on reading it. and then i get kinda yelled at for not telling people, oh, you don't need that, just come as a tourist.

2:58 pm

hurshy

a Center, within an Institute, which is part of the University, but has its own endowment

2:59 pm

hurshy

and the course does not confer University credit to anyone.

2:59 pm

CadFan

Yes, no way could you do it on a Visitor Visa as far as I know.

3:00 pm

hurshy

the trouble is, it started as an actual internship, and we still call it an internship, even though really it has become more of a class or set of classes.

3:00 pm

hurshy

well there is a WAY, it's just not a LEGAL way.

3:00 pm

CadFan

An Internship would require a work or study Visa (I'm not certain which) - not a visitor visa

3:00 pm

ADHDWordLover

bbl but will still show up on "who's online" offer my profile for some posted clues; please let babblers know. ty bye-for-now

3:01 pm

CadFan

Yes, true Hurshy

3:01 pm

hurshy

my supervisor acts like i'm being a tight-ass for not telling them to violate federal law. it is not fair.

3:02 pm

CadFan

ITcould get you and whomever travels in serious trouble - to say nothing of the place they go to work/study

3:02 pm

hurshy

plus, if she doesn't tell them, "by the way, you can't mention at the border that you're coming to study", then what's to stop someone from casually mentioning this and getting sent back home?

3:03 pm

Nef

have you contacted those above your supervisor, hursh? Do they know she's doing that?

3:03 pm

hurshy

and if she DOES tell them, then that's, you know, ridiculous

3:04 pm

hurshy

well, nef, at the moment, i'm waiting for a reply from the office of international students about whether i am just being stupid or what. and i am trying to make sure as best i can that the students are encouraged by me to do the right thing. if it continues to be an issue i will have to talk to the director and deputy director (the latter is a lawyer so that will help)

3:04 pm

Nef

siam

redturtlehead

Yes, no lost car keys nothing like that.

3:08 pm

lbdawger

me10.77, hursh

3:09 pm

bichon

me hurshy and it's a weird one

3:09 pm

Nef

hurshy, it sounds like you have brains and ethics (and she's a bit short on both).

3:09 pm

hurshy

ironically, nef, the Center has to do with ethics...

3:10 pm

hurshy

is it me4 + something?

3:10 pm

Nef

Oh good Lord!!! That Would figure, wouldn't it?

3:10 pm

lbdawger

nope, it works off the me8.45

3:10 pm

hurshy

ah. well i need to find the me8 then.

3:10 pm

riamu

hello

3:11 pm

redturtlehead

me too!

3:11 pm

riamu

i'm new...what are the instructions?

3:11 pm

Lady Biotch

me too!

3:11 pm

lbdawger

hello, riamu

3:11 pm

hurshy

instructions can be found ^^^ in the Help file

3:12 pm

lbdawger

check out the help button at the top of the page, or angelsong's babble page.

3:12 pm

riamu

ok thanks

3:12 pm

hurshy

oh yes, angelsong's page. that has hurshy's guide to boxes on it. :)

3:12 pm

redturtlehead

I have a me 7 which is a misspelling of a great painter.

3:13 pm

riamu

so it's like boggle with a very long time limit

3:13 pm

hurshy

yep

3:13 pm

hurshy

and Points. which Help.

3:13 pm

redturtlehead

yes essentially riamu, but the long time limit is needed to complete the grid, unless you are stidmama who is fast!

3:13 pm

Nef

riamu, this is sort of like a cross between boggle and scrabble; the help box is right above the chat; but if you scroll down and look to the left, you will find AngelSongs' Babble Page which is very helpful for newbies

3:14 pm

hurshy

lol

3:14 pm

hurshy

since when does stidmama have a rep for speed???

3:14 pm

redturtlehead

SHe always seems to come on and be done with 100 words in about 5 minutes.

3:14 pm

Nef

since she's working on her Masters, hurshy. She's turned into a speed demon this winter

3:14 pm

riamu

thanks... i have played at wordsplay and in the past at games.com

3:15 pm

lbdawger

stidgemere gave up stid's secret...she looks for letter patterns! lol

3:15 pm

hurshy

who doesn't?

3:15 pm

Angelsong

anyone know of clues for today's grid that have been posted? My whole day got messed up due to my
ISP being down and I am in a rush

3:16 pm

hurshy

gremlin's profile, i have heard tell

3:16 pm

redturtlehead

I dont know but I am sure in someones profile. Inge was asking for a list early in the day and then I saw she said she finished with no clues.

3:16 pm

lbdawger

i've got a list in my profile, angel

3:16 pm

hurshy

aHA! i have monkeyed those MEs!

3:16 pm

lbdawger

wtg, hursh!

3:16 pm

riamu

how am i doing?

3:16 pm

hurshy

i don't know, how are you doing?

3:17 pm

redturtlehead

riamu, we have no idea, you are the only one who can see how youa re doing.

3:17 pm

Lady Biotch

lol

3:17 pm

lbdawger

riamu, there are 132 words to find, how many have you found?

3:17 pm

riamu

"oh... i have 44 so far

3:17 pm

hurshy

you're doin' fine then

3:17 pm

lbdawger

you're doing very good! keep at it!

3:18 pm

riamu

do you have a problem here with cheating?

3:18 pm

redturtlehead

cheating like how?

3:18 pm

hurshy

define cheating.

3:18 pm

Lady Biotch

44 words in 16 minutes - I would say you are doing pretty well

3:18 pm

riamu

like using a board solver program to generate a list of all the words

3:19 pm

redturtlehead

people dont tend to do that, as far as I can tell.

3:19 pm

lbdawger

what fun would that be?

3:19 pm

riamu

good

3:19 pm

flosey

but who are you cheating? anyone other than yourself?

3:19 pm

hurshy

it's not really a very competitive site, so if someone did that, nobody would care. what would be the point in doing that, you wouldn't get to find the words?

3:19 pm

Lady Biotch

kind of defeats the purpose in playing, right?

3:19 pm

redturtlehead

but to be honest, we also do not pay that much attention to others scores, no one cares.

3:20 pm

hurshy

but people do generate a list of all the words and put up the first two letters with length and points, so that we can all help each other.

3:20 pm

redturtlehead

some people do use more words to try to find the difficult words.

3:20 pm

hurshy

because there are an awful lot of words that nobody has ever heard of.

3:20 pm

riamu

i don't understand cheats, i've just observed it's sometimes a problem at some sites with boggle-type games

3:21 pm

crosshair

cheating defeats the fun of finding the words imho

3:21 pm

hurshy

even if you wanted to cheat... again... nobody would care.

3:21 pm

lbdawger

we give each other clues to help find the words.

3:21 pm

riamu

i play a lot of boggle so ive memorized a lot of weird words whose meaning i dont really know

3:21 pm

crosshair

thats more fun;)

3:21 pm

hurshy

if you were just at the top of the rankings and we didn't know you, we probably wouldn't even notice.

3:22 pm

riamu

where are the rankings?

3:22 pm

Good Enough

afternoon babblers

3:22 pm

crosshair

babble is like a whole mind experience of the sum of all its parts,finishing each grid in 5 minutes would diminish it

3:22 pm

hurshy

^^^

3:23 pm

riamu

thanks

3:23 pm

lbdawger

hi GE!

3:24 pm

Good Enough

riamu, i used to play wordsplay and i too got discouraged with the cheaters

3:24 pm

lbdawger

about the only time i go to rankings is to find someone's profile

3:24 pm

redturtlehead

Hi Good, Cross hair, and anyone who came in while I was fussing with the dog.

3:24 pm

Good Enough

and the chat here is much more fun and friendly!

3:24 pm

crosshair

howdy red

3:24 pm

redturtlehead

I gotta admit I occasionally look at mine...not often though.

3:24 pm

redturtlehead

Congrats Cross on the womens hockey gold!

3:25 pm

crosshair

last time i checked i would have to finish 300 boards to edge into last place hehe

3:25 pm

riamu

a slight competitive element can be fun though

3:25 pm

hurshy

we all have our own personal definitions of "cheating" that we hold ourselves to. :)

3:25 pm

Good Enough

crossy you missed my bacon icon the other day. we'll have to have another crossy day

3:25 pm

crosshair

ty red,our women hockey players rock!!

3:25 pm

riamu

having said that i'm stuck at 54

3:26 pm

hurshy

as you get to know people, you find out who you want to be competitive with and you sort of hold private competitions sometimes if you want

3:26 pm

redturtlehead

well, this is not really a place for even a slight competitve element, though occasionally I race Pinikula.

3:26 pm

hurshy

you do sometimes have to hide it from the overly sensitive folks :)

3:26 pm

Lady Biotch

I will send congrats also on the hockey game too bad such a fuss is being made over beer, champagne and cigars to celebrate

3:26 pm

hurshy

i have often enjoyed being competitive with atalante, myself.

3:26 pm

crosshair

when you are new,you tend to sweat finishing every grid,but as time goes on it becomes less important;)

3:27 pm

riamu

i recognize some names on the rankings list from wordsplay

3:27 pm

Good Enough

so true crossy

3:27 pm

redturtlehead

I agree lady. The photos do look "bad" but frankly, I think the photographers were in bad taste, not the players.

3:28 pm

crosshair

why lady? didnt they stock enough cigars for the ladies?

3:28 pm

redturtlehead

i'm trying to finish more this year.

3:28 pm

lbdawger

babble is a really nice place to come play and chat. occassionally an unfriendly will waltz thru, but overall, it's a fun place.

3:28 pm

Lady Biotch

no but all of the news in the US today it was mentioned soooooooooooo many times

3:29 pm

riamu

i miss the games.com boggle site where you could create individual rooms for chat & play

3:29 pm

crosshair

those women are so good,id be honored to light their cigar;)

3:29 pm

periwinkle

hi thre FM, did you have fun with Ata and Haz?

3:29 pm

lbdawger

hiya FM!!

3:30 pm

redturtlehead

Again, I think there is the problem of that being a rather private celebration that some idiot photographed.

3:30 pm

crosshair

oh please,if i could id send them a chiipendales srtip-o-gram;))

3:30 pm

lbdawger

i think the Lady Hockey te4 were awesome! light up and bottoms up to them!

Hello smurshy :) and Red and lbd and peri and (crossy))

Wehad a blast, it was SO much fun!

3:30 pm

Lady Biotch

3:30 pm

hurshy

3:30 pm

periwinkle

3:30 pm

hurshy

were they underage or something?

3:31 pm

crosshair

your lady hockey players have been kicking butt for years now;)

3:31 pm

redturtlehead

Hursh the Olympians have a fairly strict "code of Conduct" And one was underage.

3:31 pm

crosshair

our

3:31 pm

lbdawger

i think so sanctomonious poobah thought they should have celebrated off the ice

3:31 pm

FMitch

HAven't laughed and giggled that much in ages, was good for the soul.

3:31 pm

crosshair

well the undergae one would have to pass

3:31 pm

redturtlehead

it is very sanctimonious, and really...I think we have too much access to everyones moment, even in the loo these days.

3:31 pm

Lady Biotch

I am friends with the girl who was in goal for the US in Nagano and Salt Lake

3:32 pm

redturtlehead

Bodie Miller had similar problems in Torino as he was partying a lot, AND was losing races...People who support the te**s dont always want to see athletes partying on what they see as their dime.

3:32 pm

crosshair

it is their moment..let them celebrate

3:33 pm

lbdawger

amen to that, crossy

3:33 pm

Lady Biotch

I totally agree!

3:33 pm

I agree, crossy

3:33 pm

Your U.S. Men's team is murdering the Fins. Yikes. Sunday's game will be a blood bath. Go Canada!

3:33 pm

redturtlehead

They played a great game, a good show of athleticism. I wish the news would have left them to celebrate privately.

3:33 pm

crosshair

what win gold and all go over to mcd,s for a large fry?? lol

3:34 pm

lbdawger

bode miller was a young kid back in torino, he admits to being a partier and risk taker. now he's old and a DAD at that! mellowed out a lot

3:34 pm

hurshy

but that's just as unhealthy, if not more so!

3:34 pm

redturtlehead

Gadget, are you attending any events? Vancouver must be a mad house!

3:34 pm

bonkler

the women's is the only hockey in the olympics. the rest is nhl crap.

3:34 pm

Lady Biotch

3:35 pm

3:35 pm

lbdawger

Congrats on the Baby. We have been enjoying the city via the events. SOme beautiful photos of the mountains!!!

3:35 pm

redturtlehead

4:36 pm

redturtlehead

I always try it because I think of the same word with an A tacked on.

4:36 pm

jillibus

I agree, Mirai was lovely -- don't know why she didn't score higher

4:36 pm

jillibus

yes, I found it -- had to check the meaning

4:37 pm

4:47 pm

crosshair

the suave naturals are fine for most hair,im sorry no one needs a 50 dollar shampoo

4:48 pm

redturtlehead

I admit that in th past year I stopped using suave. and started to use a 6.00 a bottle shampoo. I like it better, so I decided it is worth it.

4:49 pm

redturtlehead

but I spend 20.00 on a large bottle of salon conditioner called cashmere. My hair is difficult.

4:49 pm

Lady Biotch

I have never paid $50 I think the most I ever spent was about $24 but there was a huge difference compared to the cheap stuff I am using now

5:28 pm

5:29 pm

crosshair

when a string breaks ,you want to have to duck

5:29 pm

MetFan

It's just going to be Al and another guitarist - a kind of unplugged show.

5:30 pm

MetFan

He's touring a new live album, an unplugged thing he calls "Uncorked" - because he is a wine connisseur and collector

5:30 pm

crosshair

now i have an urge to dig out my old trooper platters;)

5:31 pm

crosshair

or mabe some supertramp or stampeders;0

5:31 pm

MetFan

I just got the Best of the Stampeders CD

5:32 pm

crosshair

5:32 pm

crosshair

i have their "steaming" albumn somewhere

5:32 pm

crosshair

damn typos

5:33 pm

MetFan

They're much more than the two hits they had in the US

5:34 pm

crosshair

indeed .i love the work wolfman jack did with them

5:34 pm

MetFan

Yes - no one could cover Brother Ray, but they pulloed it off !!

5:35 pm

5:36 pm

crosshair

lol i have one record i will not play more than once,but i keep it for it collector value..it is so bad...

crosshair

5:37 pm

crosshair

in DISCO

5:37 pm

crosshair

ugh!

5:38 pm

MetFan

I thought that too - the year Donna Summer (and her producer Giorgio Moroder) opened up the electronica thing

5:40 pm

pippingeek

i gotta say tho, overproduced and overlong, the soundtrack to american gigolo was genius

5:40 pm

crosshair

like all the versions of "hair"

5:40 pm

crosshair

lol

5:42 pm

MetFan

Moroder was a genius - his work on "Midnight Express", not to mention "Flashdance" and the album he made with Philip Oakey of Human League tells part of the history of today's dance music - Donna Summer's records tell the rest of it

5:43 pm

crosshair

i have to build my music back up,lost a lot of records during the last 17 years

5:43 pm

MetFan

Why, crossy - what happened?

6:07 pm

Nef

6:09 pm

crosshair

ok everyone,if you refresh,the list is now in my profile

6:09 pm

6:10 pm

Nef

Nef

hi welki

6:13 pm

MetFan

I need 20 - hung up on the 4 me's I'm missing

6:13 pm

tfgrrl

Um, how come everyone was all over me yesterday when I accidently used 2 grid words in a conversation about kinds of words and now no one seems to care that someone used one in a clue and then a cursor was in the wrong place?

6:14 pm

MetFan

Have the 8 and the 10 - need the 7 and the 6

6:15 pm

Lady Biotch

cause Nef pays us $5 bucks every time she does it

6:15 pm

tfgrrl

I'm only asking, because I got put in the penalty box last night, and it made me wery, wery sad. :-{

6:15 pm

crosshair

lol

6:15 pm

Jellen

It just depends on who's on...it's all meant in fun, I think...

6:15 pm

welki

if i was to guess, it's because nef caught herself and because, if you're new, some folks tend to educate the newbies. usually, people get put into the virtual penalty box for the offence. some of us are more ***casual***

6:15 pm

Nef

tfgrrl, we have a penalty box here that we get sent to. The penalty box is well-stocked with chocolates, and all sorts of goodies

6:15 pm

Jellen

Hi, guys!

6:16 pm

crosshair

howdy jellen

6:16 pm

6:16 pm

Nef

6:16 pm

crosshair

6:16 pm

crosshair

6:17 pm

Bugsaw

don't worry tfgrrl, sometimes I only find words when people send me to the Penalty Box for using a grid word I hadn't found yet! It is all in good humour.

6:17 pm

welki

hi bugs, shorty

6:17 pm

shorty

hi welki!

6:18 pm

Bugsaw

hi welki and everyone else. You are not offering alot of clues. Does that mean that most of the words are pretty typical? (hope, hope)

6:19 pm

welki

me? i have 47 left ... but will help if i can

6:19 pm

redturtlehead

Bugs, it is an average grid. I am down to 27 and would like a list.

6:19 pm

Jellen

Hi, red!

6:20 pm

Bugsaw

gremlinn has a list and he is near the top of the list in the right hand column of rankings, red

6:20 pm

tfgrrl

No, I know Nef's was accidental, and besides she sweetly helped me find a list so she is cool by me. :- ) I was actually referring more to the fact that someone used one in a clue. It's no biggie, I'm just trying to figure out the rules. Welki - stega plates???

6:20 pm

Bugsaw

my icon is supposed to be a clue too

6:20 pm

crosshair

6:22 pm

redturtlehead

I like it, especially as I am doing some t=lent stuff.

6:22 pm

welki

yes, stega plates .. gotta let stuff roll off your back and, if you can't, the stega plates at least deflect some of the b.s. you might hear on the net that makes you sad *lol*

6:22 pm

welki

tfgrrl

welki that's hysterical! I thought it was something to eat. As a middle school teacher I am used to "taking things with a grain of salt" and "not wearin my emotions on my sleeve". I couldn't give a pig's zit what most people think, but I do however think it's nice that you have a community here, and I don't want to make the game less fun for others.

6:28 pm

crosshair

crosshair

a pigs zit?? love it!!

6:29 pm

crosshair

6:29 pm

Bugsaw

tfggl, the game will never be less fun because another person joined in!

6:29 pm

welki

tf .. rest assured that no matter what you do, people make their own fun. if you run across a cranky babbler, they've probably just had a bad day or are going through a rough time

6:30 pm

bojazz

the PB ain't all bad tfg - someitmes there's hot coffee and choclits

6:30 pm

crosshair

sometimes i put bacon weaves in there;))

6:30 pm

bojazz

6:30 pm

welki

6:30 pm

6:44 pm

welki

7:15 pm

pippingeek

i found the, wait, that's the in8, that's different

7:15 pm

stidmama

OH! the practice teaching went well. Our master teacher-faculty (who is a hard sell) REALLY liked the way we conceived of using a game to engage middle-school students as part of a unit study!!!!!!!

7:15 pm

redturtlehead

yes well, i'd have to be crammed in between some of the big dudes

7:15 pm

Bugsaw

much better clue ruru

7:15 pm

bookwyrmish

it8 to begin an action, or in & i* and past tense of eat

7:15 pm

pippingeek

yes, the it 7 and 8 are connected

7:16 pm

stidmama

OH! thanks! got it now.

7:16 pm

bojazz

7:16 pm

rururocks

7:16 pm

stidmama

hey bookwyrm!!! *faint*

7:16 pm

pippingeek

make a list of what you have

7:16 pm

stidmama

LOL, I am not even in teacher mode at the moment...

7:16 pm

Gadget

wait - you're not watching Canadian gold medal curling?!?

7:16 pm

stidmama

later ruru *waves bye bye sadly*

7:16 pm

redturtlehead

gadget, in the US they are showing 4 man bobsled.

7:17 pm

pippingeek

and the in7 list is british spelling

7:17 pm

stidmama

GADGET!!! is curling on? it won't be on here for ages and ages... I HATE NBC.

7:17 pm

redturtlehead

but you can tell us a bit more about the curling match, they say its tense.

7:17 pm

bookwyrmish

Hi, stidmama, I've got a snow day and am taking a break in this heavy year of teaching

7:17 pm

bookwyrmish

I missed you folks. How's Lickety doing?

7:18 pm

stidmama

I am so glad to see you bookwyrm. Learning how to BE a teacher is exhausting enough, I am thinking I may have bit off more than I can chew (because I know actual teaching will be WAY harder).

7:18 pm

Bugsaw

Canada is playing Sweden for the gold

7:19 pm

Bugsaw

socre is Canada 5, Swe 4 in 9th end I think

7:19 pm

stidmama

ooooh. GO CANADA!!!! brb *said mysteriously*

7:19 pm

Bugsaw

stid, you ARE teaching and using a game to engage middle schoolers is excellent. You will be one of the greats.

7:20 pm

bookwyrmish

Well, Stidmama, yes and no. I'm a perfectionist, and in a school where I get to set, yes, invent the curriculum, and teaching a K-2 multiage room. Some days I envy those with a bought "curriculum" --until we talk about what we can do for the kids.

7:21 pm

bookwyrmish

Stid, middle school is awesome in many ways. Have you joined classroom 20's ning? They used to share awesome lesson plans and resources for those who want to bring in the tech and engage students with it.

7:21 pm

stidmama

oh gee bookwyrm, you are living my dream! (only I dream of older children...) in some ways I know it's WAY more set-up work, but the flexibility to meet the kids where they are "at" is so cool!

7:21 pm

Bugsaw

bookwyrm your classroom sounds like the kind of challenge I would love too

7:21 pm

Nef

I'm watching the bobsled races! The Russians went upside down!

7:21 pm

Ellen Jean

Still lost with the IT 7 and 8, another clue please.

7:21 pm

stidmama

pointing to ^ Canada flag... GO CANADA!!!!

*shaking red and white pompoms for Hockey and curling players*

7:21 pm

bookwyrmish

Wow, so many teachers on here. Not a real surprise, when I think about it

7:21 pm

redturtlehead

the last st 5, not the divisions of country in the us, or the hot vaporized water, please help!

7:21 pm

redturtlehead

Go Canada....

7:22 pm

Bugsaw

both of thse begin with the it4 word Elle

7:22 pm

stidmama

I don't know that organization, bookwyrm.

7:22 pm

pippingeek

do you have the it4/5?

7:22 pm

bookwyrmish

IT 8, a new pledge to a secret society is an ...

7:22 pm

pippingeek

bookwyrm, that's the in8

7:22 pm

redturtlehead

7:23 pm

pippingeek

st5 - hot vapor

7:23 pm

Bugsaw

not likely red. only have 1

7:23 pm

redturtlehead

nnot the hot vapor of the divisions of country in the US.

7:23 pm

reparteena

to make a list jean , then pl

7:23 pm

Ellen Jean

last st 5 is st plus abreviation for i am

7:23 pm

bookwyrmish

oops, pipping, thanks! You are right.

7:24 pm

redturtlehead

I found it thanks

7:24 pm

pippingeek

so take the it4/5 and add misspelled solid water

7:24 pm

bookwyrmish

Stidmama, the classroom 20 site: http://www.classroom20.com/

7:24 pm

stidmama

wow, reparteena too!!! this is soooo cool! seeing lots of babblers I haven't seen in ages

7:24 pm

Nef

did anyone else see that Russian team 4 man bobsled flip? They finished just 43 seconds behind the 1st place!

7:24 pm

redturtlehead

I did, they were throwing helmets and looking angry!!!!!

7:24 pm

reparteena

usually I just try to get half the puzzle, hi to all!

7:24 pm

stidmama

thanks bookwyrm *runs off to check it out* brb

7:25 pm

stidmama

awesome site. Will sign up when I reach halfway here.

7:26 pm

stidmama

"etait" doesn't count, but I wish it did.

7:26 pm

stidmama

looking for that upper right E for NBT

7:26 pm

bookwyrmish

stid, for what it's worth, my old blog site had some of my favorite tech lessons (body image, safety): http://bookwyrmish.edublogs.org/ of course, haven't kept it up. Am thinking of starting a K-2 site in the summer

7:26 pm

redturtlehead

Anyone saw the figure skating last night? I still seem to want to chat about it.

7:27 pm

Jellen

Hello, stid, bookwyrmish, and all who came in while Tim was making me work...

7:27 pm

Jellen

I saw the figure skating...

7:27 pm

bookwyrmish

Hi, Jellen. How's the weather in Oklahoma?

7:27 pm

stidmama

hey jellen! *stern mama look at tim* the very idea! making our dear jellen work!

7:27 pm

pippingeek

somebody please take these swedish fish away from me before i eat them all!

7:27 pm

Jellen

Nippy, but fine...

7:27 pm

redturtlehead

I really was impressed with Mirai Nagasu. and Rachel Flatt is my fav, she looked very happy.

7:27 pm

Nef

I heard on NPR that the Russians have only won 3 medals so far

7:27 pm

pippingeek

and then explain to me why i'm watching "top gun"

7:28 pm

redturtlehead

pippin, if you are going to pig out, sweedish fish are a good choice.

7:28 pm

Bugsaw

I did red. YuNa was just soo much better than the other girls and they were all pretty good

7:28 pm

redturtlehead

Yuna was good....

7:28 pm

stidmama

I haven't been very good about keeping up my blog, either. Nor about actually writing those new year's letters... *Sigh*

7:28 pm

redturtlehead

I still was very impressed by the girls

7:28 pm

stidmama

pippin, I can't imagine a valid excuse for watching top gun...

7:29 pm

redturtlehead

I think her score was a bit inflated...

7:29 pm

redturtlehead

I did not like Mao asado

7:29 pm

redturtlehead

she was grim looking as she jumped

7:29 pm

stidmama

the swedish fish though... are you upset about anything? *worried mama look*

7:29 pm

pippingeek

it's terrible, the only good reason for seeing it was the first time when i watched it at the theater on the navy base where they train pilots - that was actually kinda cool

7:29 pm

Bugsaw

I thot she looked grim too and the announcer kept saying that only the inexperienced girls looked like that

7:30 pm

pippingeek

just monthly junk food binge

7:30 pm

pippingeek

hey, got another st5!

7:30 pm

redturtlehead

Personally I would have put Marai nagasu in to silver and kept everythign else the same...

7:30 pm

stidmama

oh, I understand. *gently suggests a lovely apple or orange*

7:30 pm

stidmama

go pippin go!

7:30 pm

pippingeek

red, did you get the st5 that happens when you spill?

7:30 pm

Nef

I thought the Japanese skater (?Asado?) looked like she thought she should have had the gold

7:31 pm

Jellen

Yes, I didn't like Asado either...

7:31 pm

pippingeek

i figure i can afford the swedish fish since i had sushi 2 days in a row

7:31 pm

redturtlehead

Pippin the ruby reds are great and I've still got the honeybells...

7:31 pm

Bugsaw

I was concerned for Joannie because of the immense pressure for her with her mother. If she won a medal, would it always remind her of when her mother died? If she didn't win, would she feel she let her mother down? If she fell, would she feel like she let the country down? I thot she handled everything very well

7:32 pm

Nef

pipping, does "swedish fish" mean pickled herring?

7:32 pm

redturtlehead

the fish dont have fat so they are pretty harmless in a diet.

7:32 pm

LeslieAnn

she had the most technically difficult program, just not better. same issue with the men's

7:32 pm

redturtlehead

No no nef, the red candy fish.

7:32 pm

pippingeek

swedish fsh are also great because they're one of a few gummy textured candies that are actualy vegan

7:32 pm

redturtlehead

she really did not engage me. Her costume was very engaging but she looked like wood....

7:32 pm

bookwyrmish

pippingeek, I'm so jealous. Landlocked in the middle of PA, no real fresh fish.

7:32 pm

LeslieAnn

well not issue for me. issue for the silver medalists :)

7:33 pm

stidmama

LeslieAnn!!!! (((hugs))) so good to see you here!

7:33 pm

pippingeek

cause they're made with carnauba wax instead of gelatin

7:33 pm

LeslieAnn

hi stiddy

7:33 pm

Jellen

Hi, LeslieAnn

7:33 pm

stidmama

did the upper right corner E get clued and I missed it?

7:33 pm

pippingeek

bookwyrm, this fish was liekly not that fresh, it was supermarket sushi

7:33 pm

redturtlehead

publix?

7:34 pm

pippingeek

fresh market

7:34 pm

bookwyrmish

Pippingeek, I travel 45 minutes by car before I find a supermarket with sushi...

7:34 pm

Jellen

et 6/21, stid

7:34 pm

redturtlehead

we dont have a fresh market, jealous.

7:34 pm

Nef

I don't think I've ever had swedish fish. They are a type of candy I take it (although the idea of eating carnuba wax -whichh is car wax to me- sounds awful

7:34 pm

pippingeek

well it makes up for the lack of whole foods or trader joe's

7:34 pm

Jellen

et6= Greek letter + ***veryork

7:34 pm

bookwyrmish

enough feeling sorry for myself, diving into the puzzle. Be back in a bit

7:34 pm

stidmama

thanks jellen *thinking*

7:35 pm

redturtlehead

like gummie bears but red and shaped like fish.

7:35 pm

stidmama

got it!!! NBT and halfway! (that was fast)

7:35 pm

redturtlehead

all I have is Publix, and sweetbay which is a joke.

7:35 pm

redturtlehead

congrats stid!

7:35 pm

pippingeek

i actually like sweetbay

7:35 pm

pippingeek

one more to get halfway and two more for nbt

7:36 pm

Jellen

Oh! NBT here, too!

7:36 pm

redturtlehead

I dont think you would like our sweet bay, it is very very expensive, and nothign is fresh.

7:36 pm

stidmama

I like swedish fish because I can eat them... I only just learned that the reason I feel so sick sometimes is that even kosher gelatin is made from animal parts -- the animals that I am so allergic to. So now I can't even eat marshmallows.

7:36 pm

pippingeek

anyone got a nice clue for the lower left e?

7:36 pm

pippingeek

or the bottom s?

7:37 pm

Jellen

8:22 pm

wht

Sweeden won in extra innings.

8:22 pm

Bugsaw

it ended up a tie Scrabbler so they had to have an extra end. Canada had last rock so Sweden was very worried but they held on to win it

8:22 pm

Scrabbler

Wow, it was very intense but I switched channels to watch speedskating

8:23 pm

cybernan

sad day for Canada -- Cheryl gave the game to Sweden with her last rock in the 10th end :(

8:23 pm

Bugsaw

I think jilli might have had to go lie down, the tension was so much for so long

8:24 pm

Scrabbler

Too bad--there will be "If only..." and "What if..."

8:25 pm

wht

It was exciting, but I was rooting for Canada.

8:29 pm

lbdawger

*waiting for ru to ask, how does one curl rocks.*

8:29 pm

LeslieAnn

8:30 pm

LeslieAnn

nah that doesn't work ;)

8:30 pm

lbdawger

hi LA!

8:30 pm

Scrabbler

8:30 pm

LeslieAnn

LeslieAnn

8:32 pm

Scrabbler

And at 50/82 I am ready for bed. After XC skiing 6.75 miles my body is seized up.

8:33 pm

lbdawger

why do they call it curling? sweeping seems more like a name for the game

8:33 pm

Scrabbler

And I am working tomorrow and on call all weekend.

8:33 pm

lbdawger

hot bath and a nice cuppa, scrabs!

8:34 pm

8:48 pm

rururocks

(except the clothes)

8:49 pm

stidmama

doren, it all started with hookers and went downhill from there

8:49 pm

LeslieAnn

that's not true. it started with shots.

8:49 pm

rururocks

(beats talking about curling)

8:49 pm

lbdawger

8:49 pm

Jellen

Many a misadventure has started with shots...

8:50 pm

rururocks

I am ready for some feather-duster treatment

8:50 pm

Dorens

fantastic mr. fox with phoebe? lots of fun, but perhaps not quite as amusing as this chat

8:50 pm

lbdawger

i'll go for the long shots, ru can have the cheap ones, *wink*

8:50 pm

pugmama763

my 2 cents says issues each cabana boy a fig leaf & call it a day ,no thong needed

8:51 pm

stidmama

I am glad you and she had a good time doren, I was thinking of you while I was sitting in bed surrounded by books and papers all weekend long... Do you know how many books a king-size bed can hold??? TOO MANY!

8:51 pm

stidmama

LOL pugmama!

8:51 pm

lbdawger

go pugmama!!

8:51 pm

LeslieAnn

pug you are a genius. we should put you in charge of the cabana boys.

8:52 pm

Dorens

i got a jeremy a kindle for that reason. last weekend he brought two cases full of books.. much easier if he can keep them on a little tablet, stid. (and btw, i was surrounded by books last sunday morning, she kept bringing one after the other demanding that i read)

8:52 pm

pugmama763

hey what can I say? we dirty old women are just dirty young women with a lot more practice!

8:52 pm

rururocks

8:53 pm

pugmama763

what an awesome compliment! ty Dawg!

8:53 pm

stidmama

the only difficulty I have with kindles for studying is that I am very physically oriented -- I "find" what I need in a text by the physical location. The kindle was very hard for me to get to the places I needed to cite and quote when I tried last quarter.

8:53 pm

Jellen

vi7 ends the same at in8/40

8:53 pm

rururocks

LeslieAnn

8:57 pm

stidmama
