pugmama763

12:39 am

12:40 am

rururocks

lol...

12:40 am

tfgrrl

I just don't even know where to start with that

12:40 am

tfgrrl

And Elsa Maxwell

12:58 am

rururocks

rururocks

12:59 am

MetFan

Like Elsa.....

12:59 am

pugmama763

1:00 am

rururocks

this grid is about to make me whine like a spoon feeder

1:00 am

jillibus

I don't -- I'm seldom on during the day

1:00 am

rururocks

(jilli watches curling during the day)

1:00 am

pugmama763

you ruru ? NEVER!

1:01 am

MetFan

...and BR

1:01 am

jillibus

only today, ru!

1:02 am

rururocks

I am just happy being smarter than president bush

1:02 am

pugmama763

like Barbara on testosterone

1:02 am

jillibus

Who is Elsa?

1:02 am

MetFan

That's 99.44% of the population, ruru

1:02 am

rururocks

I don't know elsa either

1:02 am

tfgrrl

ruru that's not setting the bar too high

1:02 am

flosey

1:03 am

jillibus

Hi flosey

1:03 am

rururocks

Hi flosey...

1:03 am

pugmama763

1:03 am

MetFan

Elsa Maxwell is our secret name for someone who greets everybody like she's the hostess of the party....

1:03 am

pugmama763

you both know Elsa

1:03 am

rururocks

oh.

1:03 am

jillibus

oh yes.

1:04 am

flosey

reading back to see what I've missed - thanks jilli, but I understand what met was saying, there are times I come on, say hi, give a clue - and absolutely no response - so I just plod on with the words

1:04 am

rururocks

(wonders what my secret name is...)

1:04 am

pugmama763

yummy?

1:05 am

jillibus

oh, I have my irritants too -- one who asks and asks and asks for clues and then doesn't understand them so needs another one

1:05 am

rururocks

finally got that pt word

1:05 am

MetFan

Flosey has it - I try to clue when I can, carry on conversation, try to be nice, but am then ignored if I ask for some help. It happened today

1:05 am

pugmama763

MKG

1:05 am

jillibus

no need to spell it out!

1:05 am

MetFan

Just to name one

1:05 am

pugmama763

I totally lurk when the quenn of the spoon feeders is on

1:05 am

pugmama763

oops queen

1:06 am

pugmama763

well we all know right of the bat jilli that one is no secret

1:06 am

rururocks

(shamefully admits I do the same too pug)

1:06 am

MetFan

And I lurk when Elsa, BR, and the queen of the spoon feeders are on too - I got mad and told her to try and get a word on her own once in a while

1:07 am

pugmama763

what shame?

1:07 am

pugmama763

just a paid troll with frequent flyer miles if you ask me

1:07 am

rururocks

ROFL

1:08 am

MetFan

Good thing we're getting all this off our considerable chests.....

1:08 am

rururocks

I can't stand whiners

1:08 am

jillibus

I'm so glad BR annoys others too

1:09 am

MetFan

And yet, jilli - there are people who literally kiss his butt and it makes me sick!!!!

1:09 am

pugmama763

endlessly uses the chog as a forum to publicly stroke his elephantine ego...

1:09 am

flosey

does anyone have a clue for mi7 please?

1:09 am

jillibus

I know and ditto

1:10 am

MetFan

BRB - keep the thoughts flowing

1:10 am

jillibus

1:10 am

pugmama763

1:10 am

tfgrrl

yowza, I think I'm going to go sit in the penalty box where I'll feel safer and can get a snack

1:10 am

flosey

tks anyway jilli

1:10 am

jillibus

I'm told he has had problems because of Viet Nam

1:11 am

pugmama763

still cant stand MLF either though I grudgingly admit she has gotten a bit better withe spoon feeding but what a kiss ass

1:11 am

rururocks

I just got it flosey

1:11 am

jillibus

tf, this doesn't usually go on

1:11 am

rururocks

a glove + os4

1:12 am

pugmama763

just monkeyed it

1:12 am

tfgrrl

everyone needs a chance to vent

1:12 am

flosey

tytyty would never have monkeyed that

1:12 am

pugmama763

every once in a while a group of us blow off a bit of steam

1:13 am

rururocks

I think BR teases people about his intelligence. I don't think he really means it.

1:13 am

flosey

tf, you're right - it's good to clear the air

1:13 am

MetFan

I'm back - just had to leave some bare footprints in the snow...

1:13 am

jillibus

mlf lives in a wheel chair

1:14 am

rururocks

1:14 am

flosey

oh, really jilli, had never heard that

1:14 am

pugmama763

beg to differ ruru I've seen him get exceeding snotty & just plain mean & obnoxious quite a few times!

1:14 am

rururocks

hmmm

1:15 am

MetFan

Ms Pug is NEVER one to exaggerate

1:15 am

flosey

1:16 am

jillibus

flosey, there was a hint a long time ago, and then she has posted a pic in FB which barely shows it. I think that's why she has to cut off and go to bed when her hubby is ready to help her.

pugmama763

flose we are non romantic soul mates

1:35 am

flosey

lovely, great to have such friends

1:35 am

pugmama763

it is an odd but true statement that the real love of my life has nothing to do with romance

1:36 am

pugmama763

I am truly blessed so few people ever find what we have

1:36 am

flosey

I think I can understand that, we can love in many different ways

1:36 am

jillibus

how wonderful, pug

1:37 am

pugmama763

I'm not a religious person but truly thank God every day for Met

1:39 am

flosey

it's good to be able to say you love someone without it meaning you are 'in love' with them

1:40 am

jillibus

you are so wise, flosey

1:40 am

pugmama763

yes indeed,lovers come & go but nobody will come between us ! if they try they get the heave ho!

1:40 am

flosey

thank you jilli, perhaps common sense?

1:41 am

jillibus

a rare commodity, flosey

1:42 am

pugmama763

not so very common is it?

1:42 am

pugmama763

always thought that phrase was an oxymoron

1:42 am

flosey

my daughter has had plenty of boyfriends, one x husband, and they are all still good friends

1:43 am

pugmama763

like Military Intelligence....

1:44 am

pugmama763

its great when folks realize there's nothing to gain bye being enemies just because a relationship didnt work out

1:44 am

flosey

so true pugs

1:44 am

jillibus

one of my HS boyfriends married my HS best friend and we are all still in touch almost every day via email -- I cherish them

1:45 am

flosey

that's great jilli

1:45 am

pugmama763

unless of course if they did you an unspeakable wrong...

1:46 am

pugmama763

one must rid their life of truly toxic people

1:46 am

Douglas

The Lone Ranger's faithful companion is in the grid, but not in the dictionary

1:47 am

flosey

I've recently received quite a lovely email from one of daughters' old bf - he came out to Vancouver on business a couple years ago and came over to see us.

1:47 am

flosey

I am going to meet him for a lunch or dinner while back in TO inMay

1:48 am

pugmama763

my daughters first love still calls or visits me now & then & still calls me "mommy"

1:48 am

pugmama763

she thinks it's slightly creepy

1:48 am

jillibus

oh, that's really lovely but I quite understand how he must have become fond of you guys

1:48 am

flosey

isn't it great pugs

1:48 am

flosey

not creepy at all

1:49 am

pugmama763

but she still talks to him once in a while too

1:49 am

pugmama763

always have a soft spot for your first love

1:50 am

pugmama763

often wish I knew how to contact mine

1:51 am

flosey

well pugs, I don't think I was ever really in love before I met hubby - dated plenty and I think I wanted to believe it was love, but there was always something missing

1:52 am

jillibus

my pre-hubby bf is probably dead by now :(

1:52 am

pugmama763

:( sad thought

1:53 am

jillibus

I googled his name a while ago and found his son, who looks just like him

1:54 am

pugmama763

how interesting

1:54 am

flosey

wow, that's interesting jilli, did you get to speak to the son?

1:54 am

jillibus

oh no, wouldn't do that -- besides, he's a long way away

1:55 am

flosey

but knowing you, I think he might be interested to know someone who had meant something to his dad

1:56 am

jillibus

I wouldn't intrude on that family

1:57 am

flosey

of course, you don't have any idea how his mom would think about it, could be uncomfortable

1:57 am

pugmama763

think I"ll have to bid you gals a good night I'm fading REALLY fast now.Happy Babbling my dears!

1:57 am

jillibus

quite right -- and his dad might also still be around

1:58 am

flosey

me too pugs, but have enjoyed the chat

1:58 am

jillibus

night pug -- nice to chat

1:58 am

pugmama763

yawning poof! & likewise jilli :)

1:58 am

flosey

oh, sorry, I misunderstood, thought he was not around anymore

1:59 am

pugmama763

and flose (forgive me)

1:59 am

flosey

nothing to forgive pugs, it's been fun

2:01 am

flosey

I must be off too, jilli, can I give you any clues before I go?

2:01 am

jillibus

I really don't know, flosey -- just thought maybe, because he was 21 when I was 17 -- a med student.

2:01 am

Douglas

Good night all...13yos ran out of gas...I'm running out of gas. Just because I haven't been running my yap doesn't mean I haven't been listening...good night all

2:02 am

jillibus

3:15 am

FMitch

heh heh Norma

3:16 am

Norma

Your picture on facebook was very good FM nice to put faces to names

3:17 am

FMitch

I think that is Ata's FB pics as I am not on FB. I have some good pics on the camera but it is refusingto talk to my PC a.t.m

3:18 am

herinfernallady

My internet had a fit back now

3:18 am

FMitch

It was great to meet Mr Haz too, such a lovely chap.

3:18 am

rubyfoo

I have the same problem, FM, Ata got the picture of Ruby as my icon, but I've been unsuccessful in changing it. The format seems to be wrong

3:19 am

FMitch

Think I need to reinstall the camera s/w

3:19 am

Norma

My computer refuses to change my icon, it tells me it has done it but it hasn't or it makes the picture that big it is impossible to see

3:21 am

Norma

See you all later ... off shopping now with daughter

3:21 am

FMitch

3:22 am

herinfernallady

I even lost my marbles at the guy on the phone and had B help me out

3:22 am

herinfernallady

Fm how did your met work out?

3:23 am

FMitch

Brilliant herin, had such a great time and laughed so much, haven't had that much fun in a long time.

3:24 am

herinfernallady

YAH. I went to a mega concert yesterday

3:25 am

FMitch

oh excellent!

3:25 am

herinfernallady

It was 12 hours of music. I had waited 17 years to see one of the band

3:26 am

FMitch

wow, that must have been something!

3:27 am

herinfernallady

It was amazing. I saw Placebo and Janes Addiction and Faith no more Really close to. I also saw Paramore and AFI and Jimmy eat world . Been waiting 17 years for Faith

3:28 am

FMitch

*grin* glad you had such a great time.

3:28 am

rubyfoo

12 hours of music! You have to be yo8ung!!!!

3:29 am

crosshair

darn snow plows going by again,must be getting more white crap;))

3:29 am

FMitch

lol ruby, herin is a pup compared with us.

3:29 am

herinfernallady

I am 32

3:30 am

rubyfoo

hahah my son is a rock musician, and when I went to hear him, I had to wear ear plugs (but then, again, so did his wife!)

3:30 am

FMitch

yup still a pup :)

3:30 am

rubyfoo

young pup!

3:30 am

crosshair

if i tried to sit/stand for 12 hours of music,you would need a long pole,a crowbar and 3 doctors to get me moving again

3:30 am

herinfernallady

I only saw about 8 hours as the rest weren't my taste

3:31 am

herinfernallady

I do believe from the hours of 330pm to 10pm I didn't move much from the spot I had staked out. I only moved when it got a little crazy in the moss pit.

3:31 am

rubyfoo

still, a noble effort

3:32 am

crosshair

is it moss or mosh,i can never remember,and im not gonna sk my kid lol

3:32 am

FMitch

I think it is mosh

3:33 am

rubyfoo

any hints for the k's?

3:33 am

crosshair

thats where they injure themselves to the beat of the music right? lol

3:33 am

FMitch

only because ever time it appears in the grid people go - why is it not valid.
lol crossy

3:33 am

herinfernallady

Mosh. My male friend piked as it was unsafe for him and he is a large lad.

3:34 am

FMitch

can't help you ruby as haven't started yet.

3:34 am

rubyfoo

I think they throw themselves on top of the crowd

3:34 am

herinfernallady

Friend dropped me off last night and stayed in teh spare room. My mother asked if himself minded and I said that if he did mind to bad as friend was drifting on the road trying to stay wake

3:35 am

rubyfoo

good for you, herin!!!

3:35 am

herinfernallady

No that is crowd surfing Ruby strongly discouraged. Moshing is more like moving to the music except when dumb nuts try and collapse the pit by pushing too hard and swaying.

3:36 am

FMitch

ohh big earthquake in Chilie 8.8 :(

3:36 am

4:21 am

lynxxx

I did this subject once, using computers - can't remember exactly - we were all blown away by the Indian guy who did his thing on voice recognition in Indian fighter planes. Scary but v. interesting

4:21 am

crosshair

i trained mine by reading it moby dick,huckleberry finn and karma sutra lol

4:22 am

crosshair

just an indian fighter plane is scary..never mind one set up for voice rec

4:23 am

I'll say!

Sally-catlover

Especially if it's learnt on the Kama Sutra!

redturtlehead

Hi all. the news is telling me I am in the middle of a big downpour. but yet it is not happening?

4:48 am

Brookie

Hi everyone!

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

HI BROOKIE!

4:48 am

Brookie

Hi Sally! How are you?

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

Sorry about the caps :-)

4:49 am

Brookie

That's okay. I took it as a form of flattery.

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

I'm fine, liking the grid so far and well stocked up with coffee. Also it's raining so I don't feel guilty about not being outside.

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

Pleased with myself, have reached 100 words with no help or clues in the chog or any list (if there is one).

4:50 am

Brookie

Glad you're making the most of a rainy day.

4:51 am

Sally-catlover

Bad news from Chile I see :-(

4:51 am

Brookie

Congratulations on getting so many words without help! If I'm lucky, I can get about 2/3 of the words before I look for clues.

4:52 am

Brookie

What's happening in Chile? (Haven't looked at the news the last few days.)

4:52 am

Sally-catlover

Major earthquake and threat of tsunami

4:53 am

Brookie

omg. What was the magnitude?

4:53 am

Sally-catlover

8.8

4:54 am

Sally-catlover

Think Haiti was 7.

4:54 am

Brookie

I was in a 6.8 once, and that was enough for me. Can't imagine any higher numbers. Plus, the magnitude of the integers increase exponentially.

4:56 am

Sally-catlover

Death toll confirmed at the moment is 47 but I'm sure it will be massive.

4:57 am

Brookie

Very sad news. My baby is crying now so I must get him. bbl

4:57 am

Sally-catlover

Bye for now Brookie.

6:10 am

KatieMcG

Ata are you there?

6:12 am

FMitch

Hi Katie!

6:13 am

KatieMcG

HI FM, that is a fantastic photo of the three of you on facebook! Did you have a good meetup?

6:13 am

FMitch

Yes everso, it was great and we got to met Mr Haz too :)

6:14 am

KatieMcG

I have to say no one looked like I thought they would lol

6:14 am

FMitch

I'm trying to find my camera CD to reload the s/w as I have some great pics too.
lol no-one ever does do they.

6:15 am

FMitch

even I don't look like me :)

6:15 am

KatieMcG

you are all beautiful but just different to I expected. You were a bit blurred so it will be good to see you photos when they are uploaded

6:16 am

KatieMcG

*your

6:16 am

FMitch

Hows things in your nexk of the woods? Is the weather clearing up at all?

6:17 am

KatieMcG

it's been OK for the last few days, raining and windy but much better than it had been. This are good with life in general although I need to get my eyebrows threaded today and am not looking forward to that at all

6:19 am

FMitch

eew sounds painful, glad to say that I have never had to shave legs or pluck brows.

6:19 am

FMitch

Hows work going?

6:20 am

KatieMcG

it's good thanks I seem to be getting really good feedback, and my team are great to work with. I do seem to work quite long hours but there is a lot to learn. I so relieved as I had wanted it for so long it would have been awful if I had been rubbish or hated it

6:21 am

KatieMcG

the long run is a bit uncertain because of the Govt cuts but you would drive yourself mad if you thought about it so I just keep plodding on.

6:21 am

KatieMcG

Have you fully settle in to the house now?

6:21 am

FMitch

A good team is fundamental, so glad it is going well as you have worked so hard to get there.

6:22 am

KatieMcG

I had to set objectives this week was a little wierd as I was setting them for a 53 year old man!

6:22 am

FMitch

Pretty much settled, still getting used to the new area but love it and can't wait to explore more.

6:23 am

KatieMcG

I'm glad you like it after all the pain of house moving it's good to end up in a place that you want to stay

6:24 am

FMitch

Oh kitchen timer is about to go off so shall bid you adieu, nice to chat and see you again soon I am sure :)

6:25 am

Fishbulb

ji guys

6:25 am

Fishbulb

oops hi guys i mean

6:25 am

KatieMcG

Hi fish sorry I have to dash now as well, pain awaits!!

6:25 am

FMitch

Hi/bye Fish, will be back in a bit.

6:25 am

Fishbulb

kk lol

6:29 am

Sally-catlover

Hi fish, have just come back to finish and see everyone is leaving :-)

6:33 am

Fishbulb

hi sally - i was wondering about my timing there!

6:34 am

Fishbulb

At least the sun is out :) only just started the puzzle though, not liking it very much - am already monkeying at 57 words - never a good sign

6:35 am

Sally-catlover

No sun here in Shropshire :-( I was very pleased with myself to get to 100 this morning withoiut monkeying or any clues from the chog. The last ones are now a struggle though.

6:40 am

Sally-catlover

Down to 12 now, all either S or T words :-(

6:41 am

Jayk

morning all

6:41 am

Sally-catlover

Hi Jayk!

6:42 am

Jayk

sally--i'll trade you s and ts for those long hes

6:42 am

Sally-catlover

I'll give them freely - no need to trade! Do you just want stats or clues?

6:43 am

Jayk

clues pls

6:45 am

Sally-catlover

he7 = he + abbreviation for part time + three letters that sound like a chemical ending to me. Sorry, not very good clue.

6:45 am

Sally-catlover

Those three letters - clear as the n*** on your face.

6:46 am

Sally-catlover

Then plural for the he 8

6:47 am

Jayk

hm....abbreviation for part time?

6:48 am

Sally-catlover

or past tense!

6:49 am

Jayk

Aha! Understood. THANKS. I can go make bread now.

6:49 am

Sally-catlover

Phew!

6:56 am

EspritdJean

that was a good clue sally ty

6:56 am

Sally-catlover

Glad you got it - found it difficult to clue.

6:57 am

EspritdJean

it worked perfectly

6:57 am

Kaplan the Magne

he7= groovy feet digits!

6:58 am

EspritdJean

lol that's a stretch but it could work

6:58 am

Kaplan the Magne

just invert the vowels in feet digits, and thing he*cat.

6:59 am

Kaplan the Magne

think he*cat, that is

6:59 am

EspritdJean

I know, I get it....it's cute

7:00 am

Kaplan the Magne

:)

7:00 am

EspritdJean

I can't believe there's 13 words off that a on the bottom

7:00 am

Kaplan the Magne

I like making up strange new compound words from the grid- not too many today though

7:01 am

Sally-catlover

It wouldn't accept the sort of marching I associate with Hitler, though. Suppose it must be hyphenated or two words.

7:01 am

Kaplan the Magne

One of them is a high point

7:01 am

Kaplan the Magne

No Nazi marching? That's a good one

7:02 am

EspritdJean

prop 2 words

7:02 am

EspritdJean

prob

7:02 am

Sally-catlover

There are all sorts of words today that end in the nervous twitch.

7:02 am

Kaplan the Magne

that's a good tip- what do they start with??!

7:03 am

Sally-catlover

Hang on Kaplan.

7:03 am

Kaplan the Magne

:) again! too early to beg

7:04 am

Sally-catlover

ar, er, se, sk

7:05 am

Sally-catlover

Do you want the stats?

7:05 am

Kaplan the Magne

all good words.

7:05 am

Kaplan the Magne

I guess so- no Lickety?

7:05 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, there is Lickety

7:06 am

Kaplan the Magne

I'll go there later- still too early and haven't run dry yet- i have 55 left

7:06 am

suefrad625

what does the nervious twich start with

7:07 am

Sally-catlover

Sue: there are four, ar, er, se, sk

7:07 am

Becca Lorum

The twitch is the end of the words, not a whole word in itself

7:08 am

Sally-catlover

Oh, there's a short one as well but that would give it away.

7:08 am

guernseygirl

michestic

7:08 am

Nancy Boy

*yawn* gosh. I'm up early.

7:08 am

Kaplan the Magne

This grid is notable for many words that it ALMOST has that I keep seeing

7:08 am

Mudd

I'm not enjoying the grid as much as I sometimes do.

7:09 am

Kaplan the Magne

Hello Nancy Boy. Did you check out the youtubes of Paul Lynde on Hollywood Squares?

7:09 am

Sally-catlover

I'm all done. Any clues needed before I go?

7:09 am

Mudd

There's no toast and it's making me hungry. I'm going to quit and make something to eat.

7:09 am

Nancy Boy

Hi Kap! Yes, I did, but I need to do so again :) I have a bit of post-last-night amnesia. I do see what you mean about the manner/humour though!

7:09 am

Sally-catlover

No roast or roost either :-)

7:10 am

Nancy Boy

No agnostic, that was a chunky word I felt proud of nearly finding

7:10 am

Kaplan the Magne

he got more outrageous over the years, but it was the days when nobody outright mentioned "gay" so it was like a wink wink thing

7:10 am

guernseygirl

hi, everyone. Can anyone clue me an m7?

7:10 am

suefrad625

you can go watch cart***s

7:11 am

guernseygirl

oh, i've just found it.

7:11 am

Kaplan the Magne

Like the swimming pool scene with Jane Russel and the guy dancers in "gentlemen prefer blondes"

7:11 am

Sally-catlover

Well, I'll be off then. Good luck all.

7:11 am

Nancy Boy

Yeah, I think you get that from the way the others react to him. Funny to think though, since it really wasn't that long ago

7:12 am

Kaplan the Magne

Do you know that scene in "Gentlemen" . It kills me everytime I see it.

7:13 am

Nancy Boy

I'm afraid I'm more familiar with my generation's rather more trashy films :)

7:14 am

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, you have to see it. You need to know the history!

7:14 am

Kaplan the Magne

The celluloid closet and all that.

7:15 am

Nancy Boy

LOL Kaplan. I'll pop down to blockbuster later...I suppose I can expect some teasing from Leo...his favourite films are the Kill Bills

7:15 am

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, this scene will kill you.

7:16 am

Kaplan the Magne

I have to say that although I am not a gay man, I was a flaming queen in a past life

7:17 am

Nancy Boy

LOL! I don't think I could ever have been straight. Even Leo says I'm so flaming, I should have to wear asbestos trousers. Kind of got to wonder how my father didn't catch on.

7:19 am

Kaplan the Magne

I raised my daughter on all this music and theater stuff, and when she was 7 we went into a music store in Provincetown (the gay capital of Cape Cod) and she said, look mom, they have all the music we like!

7:19 am

suefrad625

I am not liking this grid. I keep thinking the ti** is the nervous move

7:19 am

periwinkle

it is sue

7:20 am

periwinkle

morning all

7:20 am

Nancy Boy

lol! It's such a shame that for men, a lot of art and culture is synonymous with gay society. I often think straight men have a rather rough time of it.

7:20 am

suefrad625

oh

7:20 am

Nancy Boy

Morning, Peri :)

7:21 am

periwinkle

egos

7:21 am

Kaplan the Magne

Hollywood was built on non-mainstream sensibilities- gays, Jews- people in the closet. Music was appropriated from Blacks, but they couldn't be closeted, so they were directly excluded

7:21 am

periwinkle

oops

7:21 am

Kaplan the Magne

Right away into the PB with you, peri

7:24 am

Nancy Boy

I suppose that's a pretty fair assessment, Kaplan - it's not something I ever really think about. I live in quite a small world, really.

7:25 am

Kaplan the Magne

I am kind of an old movie fanatic, and am a great source of trivia. I have a harder time with things that are contemporary. My past life must have been far more interesting

7:25 am

suefrad625

ok, sk, er, ar what is the others that end with the nervous?

7:26 am

Kaplan the Magne

I have also decided that in a past life, I was a feudal lord who really oppressed the peasants, because in this life I am dedicated to helping the downtrodden and can never earn a decent salary.

7:26 am

Nancy Boy

personally, I think I'm infatuated with modernity. There's a current craze for living in the moment. I'm into that.

7:26 am

periwinkle

se sue

7:27 am

Nancy Boy

Could be true, Kaplan, but you could also just be inherently good-natured :)

7:27 am

Kaplan the Magne

Those are the only past lives I can assume- but in the future I would like to come back as a Persian cat

7:27 am

suefrad625

ty

7:27 am

periwinkle

help with the m7 pls

7:28 am

Kaplan the Magne

It has to do with cell division

7:28 am

periwinkle

ty Kaplan

7:29 am

Kaplan the Magne

Inherently good natured? No- there has to be some kind of twisted reason

7:29 am

Nancy Boy

Good clue, ta. Somewhat remember learning about that in biology. School already seems so long ago. Funny to think that I should be at university right now.

7:30 am

EspritdJean

think bad breath hal****** but with an m

7:30 am

Kaplan the Magne

It's a plural tho

7:31 am

Nancy Boy

On that note, though, I'm off to work. Borrrring day shift - much prefer nights when the bar is packed ten-deep! See you later, all :)

7:32 am

periwinkle

bye, NB

7:32 am

Kaplan the Magne

I'll come back later too and open up Lickety.

hello babble friends. Just a quick moment for a hello today

9:38 am

jmcnrick

hi trif

9:38 am

Anniebrook

spike, are you still here?

9:39 am

Trifioso

hi jmc - can I ask you to hold me in prayerful thought today from 12 - 4 please? He is coming to get more stuff, and it's gonna be hellish. It's the stuff we don't agree on, and we have to flip coins and stuff. I am sick just thinking about it.

9:39 am

kadresa

Good morning Trif and Babblers!

9:39 am

Trifioso

hi kad. please see below.

9:39 am

CiociaJudy

{{hugs}} and prayers for Trif! Hang in there!!

9:39 am

jmcnrick

of course i will hold you in the Light Trif. Just remember he can't really hurt you and it is just stuff.

9:40 am

kadresa

Have done so. No worries....really. Guess what book was chosen for the next read? Give up???

9:40 am

Anniebrook

(((Trif)))

9:40 am

Trifioso

thank you jmc. he was here for a bit last night, and it was not good.

9:40 am

Trifioso

the help, of course!

9:40 am

jmcnrick

and then get a double headed coin and always call heads

9:40 am

jmbdobie2

omg trif - sounds very stressful - my ((hugs)) and prayers too!

9:40 am

kadresa

Why was he there last nite?

9:40 am

Trifioso

thank you

9:41 am

CiociaJudy

shall we all come up to your place for woman power, Trif?

9:41 am

Trifioso

going through the attic and boxing up the things he said he wanted from the china cabinet, and then beginning to take the cabinet apart. he did not follow any of the lawyers instructions. did not list what he took, took whatever he wanted, whether it was on his list or not, and is now demanding i hand over items that are on MY list, but he says are on his. I am so sick of his crap.

9:42 am

Trifioso

I am trying to remember they are just things, but it butts up against the idea that I would like to live surrounded by nice things too. I do not have to accept living with the least of, or the damaged things, or the second best stuff, just because HE thinks he is somehow entitled to only have the best of everything.

9:42 am

kadresa

Can you take a video or photos of his not following the agreed-upon terms?

9:42 am

Trifioso

YES PLEASE Judy!

9:43 am

jmcnrick

do you have someone to be there to witness?

9:43 am

jmcnrick

call someone RUGHT NOW to witness

9:43 am

jmcnrick

and don't let him in the door until they are there

9:43 am

CiociaJudy

Trif, you should not have been there alone w/him. jmc is right there should be a witness

9:43 am

Trifioso

no we don't jmc, and I am starting to think this is a big problem

9:43 am

Yvo

have a Marshall there,

9:43 am

CiociaJudy

and somebody making a list!!

9:44 am

jmcnrick

will maybe not a marshall. . . :-)

9:44 am

Trifioso

I wasn't there last night - we agreed he could be in the house alone to pack up agreed upon things, and lo and behold, he took whatever he wanted.

9:44 am

jmcnrick

GO CALL WE WILL WAIT RIGHT HERE!

9:44 am

Trifioso

how do I get a marshall?

9:44 am

Trifioso

who would I call? I don't know who to call

9:44 am

CiociaJudy

we have constables here in PA that come to your house during these types of problems

9:44 am

bogster

cims

9:44 am

CiociaJudy

what about your attorney?

9:44 am

Trifioso

do you pay them, judy?

9:44 am

jmcnrick

then call your attorney on monday and complain about him taking things on your list

9:45 am

Yvo

call your local Police Station ,im sure they can advise you

9:45 am

Trifioso

my attorney is $250 and hour, and I don't think she would come at a moment's notice

9:45 am

CiociaJudy

I think so, Trif, but not an exorbitant amount of money

9:45 am

jmcnrick

(calling your attorney on monday is in addition to getting someone there NOW)

9:45 am

jmcnrick

*tapping foot* have you called a friend yet?

9:45 am

CiociaJudy

how about your sister?

9:46 am

CiociaJudy

although maybe a friend is better than a family member, jmc?

9:46 am

Trifioso

I hitnk I am going to call mr. hate and shut the whole thing down for today, unless we can get a witness

9:46 am

Trifioso

hold on.

9:46 am

jmcnrick

anyone but the kids would be fine

9:46 am

jmcnrick

do it trif

9:46 am

CiociaJudy

and don't let him there alone EVER again Trif

9:46 am

kadresa

Hey love...I'm signing off now to wake up the boy and get him ready to meet T. Did you ask Stewart if he could be there? Anyway, much love, prayers, and positive energy going your way. Stay for dinner...I'm making a turkey dinner for D

9:47 am

jmcnrick

and don't let him in the house without a witness AND you there

9:47 am

meliae

The police will come and only allow him to take what the court says he can take, hopefully you have a copy?

9:47 am

jmcnrick

bye kad

9:47 am

jmcnrick

good advice mel

9:47 am

CiociaJudy

bye Kad (and belated hello? LOL)

9:48 am

CiociaJudy

unfortunately sometimes the police do not want to get involved with these issues, at least in my experience

9:48 am

jmcnrick

hi cio sorry but was distracted by Trif's issue

9:48 am

CiociaJudy

hi JMC ditto!

9:49 am

Trifioso

I just shut it all down. Called him and said this won't be happening until we have a witness present. He is BULLSH*T , slammed down the phone, the whole thing, but it's done.

9:49 am

Trifioso

thanks for helping me be strong, ladies, I really appreciate it!

9:49 am

SeaSpray

gm all...could I have a clue for the os7 please?

9:50 am

jmbdobie2

wtg trif - still be watchful!

9:50 am

jmcnrick

good for you Trif. And I know it costs money to call the attorney but call her on monday and have her call the opposing counsel and state you are going to file theft charges for everything he took that was on your list

9:50 am

harpjane

1:36 pm

1:37 pm

harpjane

1:38 pm

dcseain

1:38 pm

bethn

you've had that cold for quite a while haven't you?

1:38 pm

dcseain

just since monday this time, not that i ever have fully clear sinuses

1:38 pm

harpjane

ah, the old seven carbon atom molecule! thanks

1:39 pm

bethn

OMG when??? I haven't seen the wether today, was just admiring that strange burining ball of fire in the sky....

1:39 pm

dcseain

next week for DC/VA/Southern MD they're saying

1:41 pm

bethn

I feel your pain seain, my sinuses have never been right since we lived in Reading Pa in "77.

1:42 pm

bethn

you guys are really not equipped to deal with this weather. I lived i Gaithersburg Md when we first married. Flurries used to put the drivers into a panic. We were from upstate NY so we were still wearing short sleeves : )

1:44 pm

dcseain

VA handled it well this time. VDOT sent an add'l 500 plows from SE VA, and the county put trucks out too. DC and MD were huge mess.

1:45 pm

bethn

I am sitting in my kitchen listening to my parrot quacking the melody to Old Mcdonald. He wont say any of the words, Just quack quack quack quack...it is like the dogs barking jingle bells. I have no one to blame but myself

1:45 pm

dcseain

LOL

1:46 pm

bethn

I think it was Md that asked on of our local towns is we could lend them our huge snow melter machines , but they could'nt have it because we unfortunately did get the 18" the weatherman predicted this week

1:47 pm

dcseain

Yes, a friend who lives in southern Frederick county got more than 50 inches, so MD borrowed a bunch of snow melters from further north.

1:49 pm

bethn

50"??? the first year we were there we had a green christmas. We had only been married 2 weeks, my husband gave me a candy dish :( I cried. I don't think we got more than 5" the entire year

1:50 pm

dcseain

yes, Xmas here is usually green, if a bit foggy and drizzly. This was the 3rd white xmas in my lifetime here.

1:50 pm

dcseain

50 inches between the two Feb storms, yes.

1:51 pm

dcseain

he lives in Point of Rocks, MD

1:51 pm

bethn

growing up in the adirondacks, Christmas is always white, so it was a real shock to my senses. That and the limoge candy dish

1:52 pm

dcseain

i thought white christmases were myth into my 20s.

1:52 pm

bethn

I don't think i can place Point of Rocks, is it near Frederick? We used to thru there regularly

1:53 pm

dcseain

going up US 15 N, Point of Rocks is where one enters MD from Lovettsville, VA

1:53 pm

bethn

Just a hollywood creation - Plastic snow that doesn't melt in your hair and make you look like a cold drowned rat

1:53 pm

dcseain

its SW of the town of Frederick, on the Potomac

1:54 pm

dcseain

LOL bethn

1:55 pm

bethn

that is outside of what our regular travel route was, we stayed iin northern md, DC, Alexandria

3:09 pm

Jellen

Hi, all...NBT

3:10 pm

Mom

Hi Jellen

3:10 pm

Dorens

going out where? with friends or solo? hi jellen

3:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi all

3:10 pm

nrkii

I went out last night and met a guy that I haven't seen since high school ... we have been facebook friends for several months, and we live about 45 minutes apart

3:11 pm

nrkii

so we met for a beer and spent over 2 hours catching up

3:11 pm

Mom

{{TO}} hello

3:11 pm

Dorens

well that sounds like fun, if you enjoyed last night

3:11 pm

Jellen

Hi, TO

3:11 pm

nrkii

and tonight he's going to hear his friend's band and he's said I'm welcome to join him and friends

3:11 pm

nrkii

but I am a little worried that if I go it might seem too much

3:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi mom!

3:11 pm

Dorens

life is too short for worrying about how things seem

3:11 pm

Jellen

Hi, Mom

3:12 pm

Dorens

it's how you two interact that matters, not the fact that you go

3:12 pm

Dorens

(imho)

3:12 pm

nrkii

Dorens, I agree with that... I"m very bad at following any sort of rules about that stuff

3:12 pm

nrkii

but still...

3:12 pm

72 Temple Owl

just do it

3:13 pm

Dorens

there you go. owl and i have spoken :-)

3:13 pm

wildcat17

it sounds like he likes you well enough to ask you for another evening ... I say go

3:14 pm

nrkii

wildcat, it was a VERY casual invitation... I read absolutely nothing into it other than, "I wouldn't hate you for showing up."

3:14 pm

wildcat17

and it doesn't have to be anything more than a friendship at this point ... unless you want something else

3:14 pm

Dorens

so go, and be very casual about being there. be genuine, that's all

3:14 pm

72 Temple Owl

well there you go then!

3:15 pm

Dorens

go, and please tell us all about it tomorrow!

3:15 pm

nrkii

okay, thanks for the advice

3:15 pm

Mom

very casual or not, he didn't have to mention it at all, so he must not mind if you go

3:16 pm

Dorens

well now, owl and wildcat and mom and me.. this is unanimous!

3:16 pm

nrkii

LOL

3:16 pm

wildcat17

the counselor has spoken ... have a great time

3:17 pm

Jellen

Let me chime in too! Go if you would like to...

3:17 pm

Mom

yes, have a great time.

3:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

sounds as if he wanted you to come but made it casual so if you did jnot show up, no rejection

3:18 pm

nrkii

TO, I think that would be wishful thinking for me to go with that theory ... :)

3:18 pm

Nancy Boy

*shuttles in for the relationship talk*

3:18 pm

Dorens

just have fun. be cool, enjoy

3:18 pm

wildcat17

mom is right .. he didn't even have to bring it up, but he did and he asked (in some way) you to go

3:19 pm

Nancy Boy

Having read back, I'd say go, go, go. Life's too short.

3:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

se6/24 pls?

3:19 pm

Nancy Boy

3:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:20 pm

Mom

bye bye {{TO}}

3:21 pm

nrkii

Okay Okay, I'll go. I wish I had just one more get together with him where we could talk, before I end up someplace too loud to talk, and surrounded by his friends... I'm too shy for this crap

3:21 pm

nrkii

bye TO!

3:21 pm

Nancy Boy

That ending is the solution to the grid, Dorens ;) I finished earlier, but back to chat since I'm home alone

3:21 pm

LeslieAnn

it also means no awkward silences then nrk

3:22 pm

Mom

how was work Nancy?

3:22 pm

Dorens

you can go talk afterwards, if the vibes are right

3:22 pm

Mom

maybe even a dance, if it is that kind of band

3:22 pm

nrkii

LOL, Mom, I forget that people don't call me Nancy here, so I almost answered you!

3:23 pm

Mom

hmmm. wonders if there are still bands that play dance music

3:23 pm

Mom

Nrkii, your name is Nancy? sorry.

3:23 pm

wildcat17

I need a s7 nancy boy

3:23 pm

nrkii

yes there are Mom... going dancing with friends NEXT Saturday

3:23 pm

Mom

you could have answered

3:23 pm

nrkii

no need to be sorry, I go by nrkii here, but sometimes I forget

3:24 pm

nrkii

like when cybernan is on, and people start calling her nan, I perk up my ears... "who me? what?"

3:24 pm

Dorens

wildcat the sk7 uses the ending nancyboy mentioned earlier

3:24 pm

wildcat17

3:42 pm

mrchiguy

Hey Jellen, I see you are from OK? I am too (Lawton).

3:43 pm

Jellen

Yes! I'm from far NE Oklahoma...

3:43 pm

3:49 pm

stidmama

down to 85. watching CNN to see what's happening.

3:50 pm

stidmama

yes NancyBoy! *big mama hugs* not likely to be more than a foot or so on the coast of my state, but likely up to a few meters in Hawaii.

3:50 pm

stidmama

how are you, kiddo?

3:50 pm

stidmama

both left columns grey!

3:50 pm

Nancy Boy

((((Stid)))) I'm really great, thank you :) and you? I'm just rattling round here like a spare part...home alone this evening...finished the grid earlier...nothing to do!

3:52 pm

Congrats Leslie

3:52 pm

lynxxx

Hi NB

3:52 pm

stidmama

I am glad you are great! I am overwhelmed with schoolwork, but determined to make it through this year (I think that next year will be intellectually easier)

3:52 pm

stidmama

oh! YAY LESLIEANN!!!!!! *sounds of celebration in Washington state*

3:52 pm

CadFan

Watching msnbc - there is an idot on a surfboard out in the water...

3:53 pm

stidmama

N.B.T. I am so hawt! (also past halfway now)

3:53 pm

stidmama

gee whiz, cadfan, that seems really insane.

3:53 pm

stidmama

watching CNN here, there are a lot of people out and about, the water color in Hilo Bay is apparently changing.

3:54 pm

lynxxx

Apparently the first small waves have hit NZ but there is danger for quite few hours yet. We even have warnings all down our East Coast

3:54 pm

Nancy Boy

Well keep at it, Stid :) I often wonder if I should have gone to university...I got in but the heart wants what it wants, I guess. And mine wanted London and Leo!

3:54 pm

CadFan

Ahh - news guy said the police are making everyone get OUT of the water.. good thing

3:55 pm

stidmama

Nancy Boy, I don't know how things work across the pond, but in the U.S., you can go back to school later. Like I am doing -- more than twice your age, I am finally back in school.

3:56 pm

mrchiguy

Me, too, NancyBoy... I started a long time ago and am just now going back to finish (30 years later).

3:56 pm

CadFan

I'm taking classes this term too

Jellen

You're an inspiration, stid!

stidmama

good for you mrchiguy!

3:57 pm

stidmama

bah, jellen! not inspirational, delusional!!!! *crossed eyes*

3:57 pm

mrchiguy

thx. If I can make it through the next year or so, I will finally have that coveted piece of paper!

3:57 pm

Jellen

Hooray for you, mrchiguy and CadFan!

3:57 pm

stidmama

oh. pics are up on CNN. moving pics

3:58 pm

stidmama

wave patterns are pretty incredible

3:59 pm

Nancy Boy

So expensive, though, Stid...though university education in America is a LOT more. The plan was, I'd loan the money from my pa and pay it back when I got a job after uni. I'm pretty rubbish with money. And obviously that plan has hit a big, alternate-lifestyle shaped wall ;) so maybe one day, if I can afford it

3:59 pm

stidmama

but not particularly huge waves (so far) I hope it stays little.

3:59 pm

mrchiguy

come to America and load up with student loans!

4:00 pm

stidmama

that's what I am doing mrchiguy -- student loans, that is!

4:00 pm

mrchiguy

yep, me, too Stid.

4:00 pm

Boobear

clue for the in please

4:00 pm

stidmama

hey boo!

4:00 pm

Nancy Boy

Only if Americans are as besotted with English accents as the media suggests ;)

4:00 pm

stidmama

in 4/4 fish?

4:00 pm

Boobear

hi

4:00 pm

Jellen

Hi, Boo

4:01 pm

stidmama

english accents and pretty faces NancyBoy -- I think you're in! LOL

4:01 pm

Boobear

hi Jellen

4:01 pm

dcseain

look in4 my eyes

4:01 pm

dcseain

hello

4:01 pm

Jellen

in + from me ** you

4:01 pm

stidmama

hey seain!

4:01 pm

Jellen

Hi, dc!

4:01 pm

mrchiguy

You would be surprised, Nancy Boy. An accent and a pretty face will go a long way over here!

4:01 pm

dcseain

hi, stid, jellen, boo, mrchi, et al

4:01 pm

Nancy Boy

Hi, Seain!

4:02 pm

mrchiguy

Hi dc.

4:02 pm

dcseain

hi, nancy

4:02 pm

dcseain

british accents are found to be quite charming by many here

4:02 pm

Nancy Boy

I'll take the pretty face thing as an unexpected compliment ;)

4:02 pm

welki

hi folks

4:03 pm

mrchiguy

hi welki

4:03 pm

dcseain

hi, welki

4:03 pm

Boobear

hey there dc and nancy

4:03 pm

Jellen

Hi, welki

4:03 pm

stidmama

first wave should be a meter higher than normal sealevel (for this stage of tide, of course) from Nathan Becker, in Hawaii. He's an oceanographer

4:03 pm

stidmama

hey welki

4:03 pm

stidmama

unexpected, NancyBoy? really??? *big wink* you're a cutie pie, and you know it!

4:04 pm

CadFan

Americans LOVE accents

4:04 pm

Nancy Boy

Oh Stid :) don't feed my ego, I'll become unbearable. Even more unbearable. I'll glue myself to the full length mirror!

4:05 pm

stidmama

oui, CadFan! j'adore les accents! rofl

4:05 pm

lynxxx

They should, they have SO many themselves!

4:05 pm

stidmama

that sounds PAINFUL, NancyBoy.

4:05 pm

stidmama

ouch, Lynxxx! *recoils from the blow* LOL

4:05 pm

dcseain

yes, it's so charming when one is told that one's accent is cute /snark

4:05 pm

CadFan

LOL

4:06 pm

Nancy Boy

It's worth it, Stid ;)

4:06 pm

stidmama

down to 46!

4:07 pm

CadFan

I grew up in California - not much of an accent there

4:07 pm

dcseain

i'm at 43, stid

4:07 pm

mrchiguy

I grew up in OK, but no accent. I can barely understand my own brother sometimes, though!

4:07 pm

CadFan

24 here and stuck right solidly

4:08 pm

stidmama

unless the person listening is from Appalachia, CadFan! and then Californians stick out. and that's just pronunciation. Who-all is old enough to have used the phrase "totally tubular?"

4:08 pm

stidmama

go seain go!

4:08 pm

dcseain

i drawl more than my sister does

4:08 pm

Jellen

I think television has affected my accent...

4:08 pm

dcseain

i remember that one, stid

4:08 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL, mrchiguy! half my family is korean - I can't understand a thing they say, apart from cursewords

4:08 pm

stidmama

oh! and my own two boys don't know the end to the phrase "melts in your mouth, not..."

4:09 pm

CadFan

I recall that - but would NEVER have said it. (the tbular one)

4:09 pm

dcseain

they will melt in your hands if you hold them long enough, speaking from experience

4:09 pm

Nancy Boy

what's this phrase?!

4:10 pm

stidmama

yes, I know -- but I hadn't realized how long I hadn't heard that (obviously more than 15 years) until I read it in a book this last week.

4:10 pm

dcseain

OMG, have any of you in NA see the new Verizon Mobile add to the tune of the old Big Red Gum ads?

4:10 pm

mrchiguy

M&M's melt in your mouth, not in your hands.

4:10 pm

dcseain

"melts in your mouth, not in your hands"

4:10 pm

stidmama

M&Ms, Nancy Boy, back before refrigeration, the hard candy coating meant that you could eat chocolate without getting it all melted over your fingers

4:11 pm

stidmama

no seain, haven't seen (or heard) of that.

4:11 pm

Nancy Boy

I'm sorry, I'm the skittles generation ;) taste the rainbow and all that...

4:11 pm

lynxxx

Wow - the pictures on CNN re amazing

4:11 pm

dcseain

i hate skittles

4:11 pm

Brookie

Hi everyone. I just tested the "melts" phrase with my 8 year old, and he never heard of it either.

4:11 pm

stidmama

and yes, I am old enough to remember when that hard candy coating was necessary

4:11 pm

Jellen

Hi, Brookie

4:11 pm

Brookie

Hi Jellen!

4:11 pm

stidmama

hey brookie!

4:12 pm

Brookie

Hi stid!

4:12 pm

mrchiguy

skittles are fantastic!

4:12 pm

stidmama

I like skittles sometimes, they're a bit too sweet for my taste.

4:12 pm

lynxxx

hi Brookie

4:12 pm

CadFan

Love skittles

4:12 pm

mrchiguy

those, and Starbursts... more sugar than any one person should ever consume.

4:12 pm

stidmama

down to 41... will go study some more when I hit 40.

4:12 pm

stidmama

oh! guess what???

4:13 pm

CadFan

Yes - I best take a break and go work on some homework...BBL

4:13 pm

Brookie

Speaking of Skittles, they're not kosher, and when I went to a Jewish junior high school, we weren't allowed to eat Skittles, so we'd have to smuggle them in.

4:13 pm

stidmama

I spent ALL DAY yesterday at school, and didn't need to use my cane!!!! *bounce bounce* and today I am NOT overly stiff and sore!

4:13 pm

Brookie

And hi lynxxx!

4:13 pm

stidmama

wow brookie -- never occurred to me that sugar might not be kosher.

4:13 pm

stidmama

there is so much to learn.

4:13 pm

dcseain

howdy, brookie

4:14 pm

Brookie

lol, stid, and hi dc!

4:14 pm

dcseain

ah, skittles have gelatin?

4:14 pm

Brookie

I believe so.

4:15 pm

stidmama

waikiki beach is EMPTY. wow... lots of rough waves coming in.

4:15 pm

dcseain

Krispy Kreme uses agar instead, so their products, though not certified, are kosher dairy

4:16 pm

Nancy Boy

Now Krispy Kreme is waaaay too sweet...can't stand it. Although it might be one of the things that I convinced myself that I didn't like because it was so unhealthy

4:16 pm

stidmama

well if they have gelatin then they are off my list of safe foods... *Sigh* I only just learned I have to look for that, too.

4:16 pm

Brookie

And that's why Krispy Kreme is near and dear to my heart.

4:16 pm

mrchiguy

Oh, Nancy Boy, I can eat a dozen in nothing flat. I may regret it, but man it is soooo good!

4:16 pm

stidmama

you have krispy kreme over there??? I have never had it, I know I can't eat it.

4:17 pm

Brookie

I took my Australian friend to Dunkin Donuts last week... he couldn't stand it.

4:17 pm

dcseain

the Krispy Kreme on US 1 has been there since before i was born.

4:17 pm

stidmama

tastes are very different from state to state or continent to continent...

4:17 pm

Brookie

Where on US 1, DC?

4:17 pm

Nancy Boy

I condition myself, Mrchi ;) I have some very tight trousers that I've spent a lot of money on before. Krispy Kreme would be like sabotage!

4:17 pm

mrchiguy

My friend who lives in Germany comes over here (Chicago) and his first request is a trip to Krispy Kreme!

4:18 pm

dcseain

South of the Beltway, West side, at the bottom of Beacon Hill

4:18 pm

stidmama

LOL Nancy Boy!

4:18 pm

dcseain

oh, Alexandria VA, sorry Brookied :D

4:18 pm

stidmama

oh oh, someone on the beach at waikiki...

4:19 pm

mrchiguy

Yes, well, not all of us have a model's body, Nancy Boy! :)

4:19 pm

stidmama

I bet the cops are going to ...

4:19 pm

welki

surfers, too, stid

4:19 pm

lynxxx

Don't think Krispy Kreme really took off over here (came out about 4 years go) despite huge advert spending. I looked at them but couldn't bring myself to try one

4:19 pm

stidmama

Tom just asked if I want to go to India... oooh! vegan tour!

4:19 pm

dcseain

"Pure vegetarian" tour

4:19 pm

dcseain

wow there are some big ships on the beach in Chile

4:20 pm

Nancy Boy

it's a sad choice between this and quality of life...LOL

4:20 pm

dcseain

i actually don't like the origial krispy kreme -i like their cake donuts and the apple-filled one and the boston kreme one

4:21 pm

stidmama

now the reef in Hilo is exposed again as the water recedes before the next big wave. Wow.

4:21 pm

stidmama

all this talk about donuts is making me hungry!

4:21 pm

welki

<-- would take any donut, any donut! flippin' fruit and vegies are beautiful, but give me fat!

4:21 pm

mrchiguy

there you go, welki! :)

4:22 pm

stidmama

people are apparently wandering down to the beach again now. that seems rather stuuupid.

4:22 pm

welki

hehehe, recognized the sound of desperation, eh?

4:22 pm

Jellen

Ditto, welki!

4:23 pm

mrchiguy

When the waistline starts to go, there's no use fighting it! :)

4:23 pm

stidmama

well now. I passed 40 and got down to 38. time to study some more. back later to pretend I have brains. (((hugs everyone))) Nancy Boy, stay safe, okay? You're constantly on my list, you know!

4:23 pm

welki

stid, when i lived back east, every year at hurricane time, folks would walk the beach against warnings ... so said. inevitably, a parent walking with a child

4:23 pm

welki

so said = so sad

4:23 pm

mrchiguy

i thing i can safely feed 6 people for a month with whats on board atm

6:08 pm

crosshair

pain in the butt it is

6:09 pm

crosshair

just because something is on sale for 33 cents per can if you buy 40 cans,does not mean i need 40 cans lol

6:09 pm

welki

i think that, for me anyway, it can be traced to a time when food was not plentiful

6:09 pm

crosshair

ok,im done venting lol

6:10 pm

welki

not that we starved as kids, but the threat of not having enough food was very real for my grandparents and parents ... so if you could stock your pantry, you did

6:11 pm

crosshair

i was very poor as a single guy,it was with pride that i could live a month on a 5 pound bag of taters,a dozen eggs,a jar of peanut butter and 2 loaves of bread lol

6:11 pm

welki

and, not only did i pick up that behavior, it went along with the 'clean your plate, children are starving...' mentality. counts partially for my ***rubenesque*** figure

6:11 pm

crosshair

my mom was very good at making the food budget go far

6:11 pm

welki

being frugal because of temporary lack of funds is a lot different than wondering if there's going to be enough food in the house to feed the kids

6:12 pm

crosshair

i can remember lots of pork,jello,turnip,oatmeal...very little prepared cerial and prepared snacks..

6:12 pm

welki

the money saved if you bought dented cans bought coal for the furnace

6:13 pm

welki

even now, preparing for a camping trip, you'd think we were headed out to the wilderness with the swiss family robinson for a year ... lol

6:13 pm

welki

(and there's only two of us .. and the dogs)

6:14 pm

crosshair

lol indeed welki,i can remember one time we were due for a rough winter,and my dad snuck out and shot a cow for meat for winter with veggies from our garden for the rest..he got caught and worked for the farmer for 2 months to pay for the cow and at the end the farmer gave us 100 dollars and half a pig;))

6:14 pm

welki

the good ol' days :)

6:15 pm

welki

well, now that i'm a capitalist pig with a full pantry, i think it's time for me to start supper .. or at least start thinking about it :)

6:15 pm

crosshair

it was a big pig and you knew he was just trying to fill our freezer

6:15 pm

welki

always a pleasure, crossy ... greetings to elegant, please. (and if buying in bulk is her biggest fault, you're a lucky man)

6:16 pm

6:59 pm

lbdawger

has there been another influx of trolls today?

6:59 pm

Bugsaw

trying to ignore tooth and/or sinus pain that just won't go away.

6:59 pm

Bugsaw

no, They just shut up when I got on. sob, sniff

7:00 pm

lbdawger

owie! have you tried an antihistamin or some anbesol?

7:01 pm

Bugsaw

tried all of it, including the dentist who says there is nothing wrong with the tooth but he could give me a root canal if I wanted one (no) and the doctor who said it was probably sinusitis and flushing it with saline water would cure it. Only it didn't.

7:02 pm

lbdawger

ugh,i hate it when my sinuses are so plugged that even my eyelashes hurt

7:03 pm

Bugsaw

keep trying to convince myself it is psychosomatic and I can make it go away like warts, with attitude. doesn't work

7:04 pm

lbdawger

maybe a hot shower would help?

7:04 pm

Bugsaw

I don't usually have sinus trouble lbd but if this is a mild case, I would HATE to have it often

7:04 pm

lbdawger

it could be the beginning of a sinus infection.

7:05 pm

lbdawger

are things starting to bloom in your neck of the woods?

7:05 pm

Bugsaw

good idea. I felt better this morning after my shower. Off to have another one now. Happy Babbling and thanks for the suggestion. poof

os4/4- sounds like a plural of itself

7:44 pm

redturtlehead

38 now for me...

7:45 pm

stidmama

hm. *puts on "dr mama" hat* I think you need to put a cool washcloth on those eyes, PAV, and rest for a few minutes. OR, you can do the teabag trick, which works well for stidkid #2

8:03 pm

Jacula

Min - I finished the grid in the UK morning. What happened to your power?

8:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

No, it's too literal for that. The only thing I can think of is to put gloves on, but then everyone will know I couldn't get the hands right

8:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Not gloves on me. Gloves in the painting.

8:03 pm

Minveryork

8:04 pm

stidmama

HE 7 please?

8:04 pm

Jacula

Kaplan - so, it's painting it as you want it... hands aren't the easiest of things to get right, like eyes, they've got to be right or the 'essence' of the subject is lost.

8:04 pm

stidmama

also PT if it's handy...

8:04 pm

8:12 pm

redturtlehead

8:13 pm

Minveryork

8:13 pm

redturtlehead

I had it minver, but was still asking for a clue, not paying goo attention to what I am doing.

8:13 pm

Minveryork

ke 4/9 is like other one, ends in different consonant.

8:13 pm

stidmama

change the last letter on your K word PAV

8:13 pm

stidmama

looks like a plural

8:14 pm

PAV3

I think the mi7 32 is already the pl of said

8:14 pm

Jacula

I never call my mother 'Mother' unless I'm shocked or annoyed by her. She's Mum (or 'Mom' as we pronounce it here in The Midlands). Same goes for my own daughter re me. The title 'mother' is usually said in upper case with an exclamation mark at the end and accompanied by raised eyebrows. All of my female friends my age find this to be true of their kids.

8:14 pm

pippingeek

4 hours of climbing, i am worn out but very satisfied

8:14 pm

Hello pippingeek!How are you? Welcome to the puzzle

8:14 pm

stidmama

8:15 pm

stidmama

hey jmc, of course you may join us!

8:15 pm

Jacula

Hi jmc.

8:15 pm

8:17 pm

jmcnrick

trif i replied

8:17 pm

stidmama

Mother always called Granny "Mother" and Granny called "Grandmother" Mother... I think it's a permanent thing in my family. But I am last of the direct line of descent for females.

8:17 pm

redturtlehead

I am so surprised about the predicted Hawaiian tsunami!

8:17 pm

Trifioso

wow. weird. did you say the chog sometimes run by you when you first sign in? it did that to me today for the first time....

8:17 pm

Trifioso

oh, okay, thanks jmc

8:18 pm

Jacula

I call my mother 'Mother' when referring to her, but always call her 'Mum' when speaking to her. She'd think I was being sarcastic or judgemental if I did otherwise. LOL

8:18 pm

stidmama

if I left babble running and the computer suspends it will do that to me trifioso

8:18 pm

jmcnrick

that was probably me trif :-(

8:18 pm

Trifioso

yes, that must have been what it was, stid.

8:18 pm

stidmama

so. I have more reading and writing to do before I can rest today. Trying to get myself caught up still from the migraine weeks.

8:18 pm

Trifioso

no, it wasn't jmc - I was not on then

8:19 pm

jmcnrick

my mother expected me to call her Mother

8:19 pm

stidmama

It would be different if I had been just taking some time off... LOL

8:19 pm

stidmama

see you-all later. *Poof*

8:19 pm

8:30 pm

redturtlehead

the ps is a groing area muscle.

8:33 pm

It's like that movie about the little girl and a spelling bee...where she just knows how to spell, but doens't know the definitions...until Lawrence Fishborne's character teaches her to know the words to help her win the Bee

8:33 pm

Jacula

PAV - our brain generally 'corrects' what we read, as we understand it, as we go along.

I don't get on very often, and when I do, I don't have a lot of time, so I often lurk and don't participate in the chog. But I was on last night and watched many of the regulars here handle an obtrusion with grace and dignity. Y'all got the gold medal.

8:40 pm

PAV3

oooh, I must have missed the intrusion....

8:40 pm

jmcnrick

i missed that but i have seen that before

8:40 pm

pippingeek

it was a moderately annoying troll, at least no page-long posts of random nonsense

8:41 pm

torgone

That was a nasty one .. Hopefully Dr_G saw the emails and dropped the ban hammer ..

8:42 pm

Bugsaw

it sounded like that one has been here before tho Torgone because the first thing he wanted was someone to "call Dr God"

8:42 pm

pippingeek

mr god, actually, which gave me the giggles

8:42 pm

PAV3

well we are a live blog / chat, so it's bound to happen...I usually ignore such things (and email Dr. God surreptiously) (sp?)

8:42 pm

Bugsaw

I missed that point pippin

8:43 pm

Minveryork

Too bad I had no power last night. I missed that troll.

8:43 pm

pippingeek

the best part was nobody really took the bait, so trolly got bored

Stid should not eat cheese or chocolate because she is prone to migraines. I know she tells us those are not the triggers, but she may be wrong.

9:50 pm

Jacula

I rarely eat chocolate, crisps or chips. Wine is the causeof my belly.#

9:50 pm

ADHDWordLover

then that's not clinical migraine, but stress related?

9:50 pm

PAV3

and I'm losing my belly...slowly, but surely,

9:50 pm

ADHDWordLover

a surgeon's screwup is the cause of MY belly. it was flat before he screwed it up

9:50 pm

Jacula

My Other Half gets stress migraines.

ADHDWordLover

9:52 pm

mummy

HI Minver & Jac, I have been a pro for about 5 years now, I am with a friend in Melbourne and can't remember the cost of going pro!

9:53 pm

Jacula

9:53 pm

ADHDWordLover

the surgeon (his student actually) screwed it up in closure of surgical incision

9:54 pm

The addication, Min, isn't bad, so long as it doesn't encroch on your real life relationships and can be positive if it lets you meet new people in real life and helps you to understand people from other cultures, even if only on the internet.

Good afternoon Evening all

PAV3

I thought I had that already

10:05 pm

Jacula

No fad diet is any good because you need to deal with normal food and normal portions. You can't do that if you have been following a fad diet. Fad diets, if they are of any use, are only useful to someone who wants to lose a few pounds for a wedding or something.

10:05 pm

Some people thrive on eating little and often, others on 3 meals a day. Some do better with more proteins than carbohydrates, others are the reverse, Even your blood type can temper what sort of diet you need to follow to get and stay at a healthy weight.

One thing I must say re weight and weight charts. Most of the charts we go by were drawn up inbetween the 1950s and 1970s. Skeletal frames were much smaller then than they are now. New charts need to be drawn up, because people are much bigger (bodywise rather than fat) than they were then.

10:15 pm

ADHDWordLover

i gain 10-12 lbs every winter and it comes off by itself every summer

10:15 pm

pippingeek

mkg both body words - ps5 is a muscle, pt6 is a plural eye condition

10:15 pm

ADHDWordLover

we do have new charts; according to the old chart if I weighed what it said I should, i'd be in a box six feet under

10:15 pm
