Dachef
dont. I watched it purely out of professional interest. I lasted 30 mins.
1:47 am
herinfernallady
Right
1:48 am
Dachef
they put the movie out too quick in order to capitalise on the bok success. Sacrificed all the production in order to do so.
1:50 am
Dachef

hello mudd
4:22 am
Mudd
I'm traveling today and will have to do the grid en route, so I'm trying to get a feel for it before I leave
4:22 am
rubyfoo
the first 60 words were a pleasure!!!
4:22 am
rubyfoo
where are you going?
4:22 am
Mudd
The grid is good, but I have not gotten to 'lovely' yet ... hoping too
4:23 am
reparteena
morning ... lurking too
4:23 am

I am in Kentucky, heading west to the Black Hills

yes, ad8: sticking
4:25 am

I see why you like it ... hadn't seen the upper right corner yet.
4:26 am
rubyfoo
unfortunately, I am not systematic and just jump all over the place
4:27 am
redturtlehead
good morning all. trying to get a lot of the grid done prior to work, so far 137/86
4:27 am
rubyfoo
hello red, you are too smart!!!!
4:28 am
redturtlehead
ha, not hardly!
4:28 am
rubyfoo
even so, I is very nice to see you!
4:29 am
rubyfoo
I had 60 quick and easy ones, but the next 20 were harder and the rest will probably be impossible! lol
4:29 am
redturtlehead
I have updated my icon for an icon clue as well. I think my leprechaun was creeping people out anyway!
4:30 am
rubyfoo
I tried again to change my icon, to Max this time, but still can't do it. Very annoying
4:30 am
redturtlehead
DC seain is good at helping with that stuff.
4:31 am
rubyfoo
I am embarrassed to keep asking. Ata did the first one for me and FM offered to help but I can't seem to get the hang of it
4:32 am
redturtlehead
DC is the one to ask, or Pinikula has some instructions in her profile. Some people struggle with that aspect of babble. I am not a good teacher....I just sort of point and click.
4:32 am
rubyfoo
I have a great photo file but can't seem to move them around
4:33 am
redturtlehead
the easiest way is to drag the photo to the desktop and then upload it from there.
4:34 am
rubyfoo
the instructions on my computer are all in French, which makes it even harder for me, e.g. desktop?
4:34 am
redturtlehead
put the photo on your screen, and let it sit there instead of in a file. I have no idea what they call a desktop in french, escritoire?
4:35 am
rubyfoo
I didn't know that word (shows how bad my French is) but it doesn't exist in my dopey instructions.....
4:36 am
redturtlehead
I really dont speak French. but I just pull the icon from the file and drag it on to the computer screen and then let go. then the image is on the desktop.
4:37 am

6:29 am
EspritdJean

6:33 am
EspritdJean
anybody home?
6:33 am
Nancy Boy
ha10: what you should find on the end of your arm + what you do if you're in retail, but turn the double consonant into a single
6:35 am
EspritdJean
I only get 7 letters from that m'luv
6:35 am
Creeta
gerund form
6:36 am
Nancy Boy
Ohhhh I didn't realize it was a seven too. Yes, sorry, then turn it into an action!
6:36 am
EspritdJean
ah, monkeys found the rest, ty NB!
6:36 am
Nancy Boy
(I always get overexcited when I get to give clues, you'll have to forgive me)
6:36 am
EspritdJean
no, you did great, never would have found that!
6:38 am
Nancy Boy
me either, I got it from the gretel clue :)
6:38 am
EspritdJean
weird word
6:39 am
Nancy Boy
I can't even guess what it might mean. We should all make it a target to use it today ;)
6:40 am
EspritdJean
I looked it up, means giving a gift
6:41 am
EspritdJean
now you can spend the day ha10
6:41 am
Nancy Boy
Just told Leo that I'm going out ha10. Target for the day: met ;)
6:42 am
EspritdJean
he might get the wrong idea!
6:42 am
Nancy Boy
I fail to see how anyone could get any kind of idea from that!
6:43 am
Nancy Boy
Unbelievably he knew what it meant. Ahhh, ex-grammar school kids.
6:43 am
EspritdJean
well, I have that sort of distorted mind :-0
6:43 am
EspritdJean
no way!
6:43 am
godthaab
How many words today?
6:43 am
Nancy Boy
apparently it was in a poem he had to study for English lit at some point. Life is so strange sometimes.
6:43 am
EspritdJean
that's the truth
6:43 am
Nancy Boy
223, Godthaab
6:45 am
Nancy Boy
Well, I'm off to...go out ha10, I suppose. But might just get food instead ;) see you later, Esprit!
6:45 am
EspritdJean

6:48 am
EspritdJean
how's your weather?
6:49 am
Trifioso
something new: rain! (ugh. I need an ark)
6:49 am
EspritdJean
gray skies here and cold again
6:50 am
Trifioso
are you over your average rainfall?
6:50 am
EspritdJean
peals the coating off my eyeballs as I walk through downtown
6:50 am
Trifioso
sorry, that wasn't very grammatical....
6:51 am
Trifioso
whoo! my sister's married name is in the grid today! wow!
6:53 am
Trifioso
is anyone watching the new "life" series on the discovery channel?
6:54 am
EspritdJean
Yes, I eat that stuff up
6:54 am
EspritdJean
I have seen 1 episode so far, but have others recorded
6:54 am
Trifioso
its really good, isn't it? there have only been 2, so you are okay
6:54 am
EspritdJean
I saw the one with the stalk eyed fly and poison tree frog, cheetahs
6:55 am
EspritdJean
the photography is miraculous
6:55 am
Trifioso
that was the first one. the next one is amphibians, and there are some FREAKY little critters in that family!
6:55 am
EspritdJean
it's beyond fascinating
6:55 am
EspritdJean
I had to buy the Planet Earth set, I couldn't get enough of watching it
6:56 am
Trifioso
those baby ducks leaping out of the tree get me every time....oh, and that poor, poor polar bear!!!
6:56 am
EspritdJean
I know!
6:56 am
EspritdJean
I have seen those bears in the wild up in northern manitoba
6:57 am
Riverdance
Good Morning Everyone - well I am all packed and waiting for the girls to show up - have some time to play - how is the grid this morning
6:57 am
EspritdJean
it's a good one mom
6:57 am
Trifioso
seriously??? that must have been amazing! were you there to see them in particular, or were you just up there doing something else and some walked by or something?
6:57 am
Trifioso
morning mom!
6:57 am
EspritdJean
ps Tri I never even knew a duck that nested in a tree
6:58 am
EspritdJean
I was there to see them and the beluga whales. It wa summertime, so the bears were in a state of "walking hibernation"
6:58 am
Trifioso
neither did I!
6:58 am
Trifioso
I think I might get that in winter....
6:59 am
EspritdJean
in walking hibernation they are kind of starving because their food source doesn't show up until the sea ice freezes
6:59 am
EspritdJean
but they did happen to luck into a beluga whale carcass prob left by Inuit, so an unexpected feast
7:00 am
Trifioso
I try to tell the kids we can't get too upset when the cheetahs catch an ostrich, or the baby seals get it from a whale - they have to live too....but I always do root for the prey, secretly...
7:01 am

7:07 am
Trifioso
you should join this: http://www.travelerscenturyclub.org/
7:07 am
EspritdJean
I know of that club
7:08 am
EspritdJean
there is as aspect of it that makes me laugh though
7:08 am
Trifioso
I only heard of it when an eccentric old lady around here died, and her obit was just fascinating to read! she was SO proud of her membership in that club, though
7:08 am
EspritdJean
even if they stop over in an airport to change planes they "count" that country as one they have been too
7:08 am
Trifioso
really? I thought you had to spend one night to have it count...oh well
7:09 am
Riverdance
My stats tiles dont go along with my grid - anyone else have that problem
7:09 am
EspritdJean
even port stops on a cruise ship count . . . Oh, I have been to Spain (really, for 6 hours)?
7:09 am
Trifioso
oh dear mom! mine seems okay, but now will look more closely....
7:10 am
Trifioso
I can see stops on a cruise ship, maybe -- if you do get out, and at least experience something of the country. hey, it's better than never leaving the airport anyway
7:10 am
EspritdJean
I suppose
7:10 am
EspritdJean
I have a stamp in my passport from the Equator :-D
7:11 am

7:22 am
Scrabbler
Here in the country, salt is not used on roads. They use tiny stones, dirt and cinders. So when the snow melts we see all this crud alongside the roads, onto our lawns. We have to rake it out.
7:22 am
periwinkle
of course, ty, Trif

Riverdance

7:27 am
Trifioso
what bums me out the most about spring is how much needs to be done outside....everywhere my eyes fall there is something to pick up, burn, trim, prune -- it never, ever ends. sigh
7:28 am
Scrabbler
Yes, that is what I realize when I look out windows--branches, twigs, leaves...gardens to prep.
7:29 am
hawknoah
why isn't "trannies" found in the dictionary?
7:29 am
Riverdance
I have a great 13 year old that just did most of that - will cost me....
7:29 am
Trifioso
and I was a naughty, naughty lady this fall, and didn't put everything to bed as I should have....
7:29 am
Trifioso
amen, hawk, amen!
7:30 am
Trifioso
maybe they are too busy whooping it up in provincetown to sit quietly in the dictionary?
7:30 am
Scrabbler

8:36 pm
redturtlehead
I feel too stressed from work today, I can not seem to let go...
8:37 pm
redturtlehead
no no jmc, you are just a cupcake failure.
8:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
no. you are a failure at baking cupcakes. big difference. and maybe it was your oven.
8:37 pm
nrkii
sorry to hear it red... what does "in the box" mean?
8:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
ALWAYS blame your oven.
8:37 pm
jmcnrick
it was my oven!
8:38 pm
redturtlehead
I was in triage, adn thus endured the rage of all those who could not be seen in an appropriate amoutn of time.
8:38 pm
Krista
hee hee works for me
8:38 pm
redturtlehead
I sadly wanted to see them, I really did.
8:38 pm
jmcnrick
too bad red that is a rough gig
8:38 pm
Krista
Ugh, I don't know how you do it Red
8:38 pm
redturtlehead
Triage is often in a small room, hence the term "Box" used all over the country.
8:39 pm
redturtlehead
It's really ok, but I worry a bit. I got yelled at by a variety of physicians, and patients and the charge nurse once today....
8:39 pm
72 Temple Owl
last sh5/14 pls ?
8:39 pm
redturtlehead
But the physician made me laugh. he calls to tell me he saw a guy in the office....he's worried about the guys airway and breathing...
8:39 pm
jmcnrick
sh+not beginning
8:40 pm
redturtlehead
and then instead of calling an ambulance, he sends the guy in the car with his wife....
8:40 pm
Krista
Now we're down with the lingo. Next time I'm in the ER I will refer to the box and get seen in record time.
8:40 pm
redturtlehead
LOL
8:41 pm
Krista
Well, if it's anything like here, his wife got him there faster.
8:41 pm
redturtlehead
if youthink someone has a chance to stop breathing, best to call paramedics, not let the wife drive him over. you now.
8:41 pm
jmcnrick
ah i thought the kicker was going to be that the wife was the cause of the breathing problem for yelling at him
8:41 pm
redturtlehead
getting him there is not the issue, its if you think someone actually has an airway problem, then he should be with someone who can do something about it, like be at the physician office until the medics can take him...
8:42 pm
Pinikula
evening all...

Hi Sceabbs. How are the bunnies? And I do hope you've not captured and traumatised another wild mouse.
10:20 pm
lynxxx
sounds like a swarm of mosquitoes here -first day Grand Prix racing just started
10:20 pm
stidmama
hey pippin -- so you really really quit?
10:20 pm
Scrabbler
I would typically root for Duke but my father is a Purdue alum.
10:20 pm
Pinikula
quit what???
10:20 pm
pippingeek
i did, i gave my notice today. very satisfying
10:20 pm

in that case, go purdue!
10:21 pm
harpjane
the one that gets me is BUTLER....
10:21 pm
stidmama
good for you pippin. now what about a job in nyc?
10:21 pm
Scrabbler
Jacula, every trip down to my basement includes looking around for a mouse to rescue.
10:21 pm
pippingeek
which means late april i'm heading up brooklyn way
10:21 pm
Jacula
Hello jmc.
10:22 pm
pippingeek
while i'm there will look for apartments and jobs
10:22 pm
Jacula
Scrabbs - if you want a pet mouse, go to a pet ahop for a domesticated pet mouse. Wild mice will not respond well and you''ll get upset.

10:23 pm
stidmama

10:24 pm

Scrabbs - just being caught and handled is enough to lead a wild mouse to die of stress. (3 days max)
10:24 pm
pippingeek
athens georgia - where i used to live

Things are bad economically everywhere - even in Wyoming where my son lives (which was supposed to be unscathed by the bad economy) the police department told all police officers they will need to work 2 weeks without pay...that's 80 hours @ $20+ an hour...it adds up.
10:29 pm

10:29 pm
Scrabbler
Bye Lynxxx. TY for clues.
10:29 pm
jmcnrick
bye lynxx thanks for all the help
10:29 pm
Jacula
Scrabbs - I know, but even a baby mouse is still a wild mouse. Mice are fleeting but nice pets to keep, but if you want a year+ rather than a few days, then get a mouse from a reputable pet shop.
10:29 pm
babbz
bye lynxx thanks for clues
10:29 pm
Pinikula

10:31 pm
Jacula
Having said that, we did have a champion moue that made a few years. (That was the one I put into my cleavage, with bubble wrap and foil around him to try to make him live.
10:31 pm
stidmama
down to 71 here and feeling rotten (bad mama evening) I think I may just wander away
10:31 pm
babbz
ewwwe jacula!!
10:31 pm

i can't imagine living with a mouse in my cleavage
10:31 pm

Silly Jacula!

LOL Jac you are a true animal lover!
10:32 pm

*innocent mama look* that's how the conversion goes, right?
10:32 pm
jmcnrick
go babbz go
10:32 pm
Bugsaw
I would never put a mouse in my cleavage no matter how much I wanted it to live
10:33 pm
Jacula
Scrabbs - leave the mice in our basement alone. If you find an injured mouse outside, either place it into a safe place from predators (under an outbuilding or something) or, if its injuries are too severe, let the predator finish it off quickly, or do it yourself.
10:33 pm
Bugsaw
stid, a mama that plays rock band with her kids is not a bad mama
10:33 pm
Scrabbler
Uh, oh, Duke is now ahead by 9.
10:34 pm
stidmama
a mama that scolds the kid for being overly OCD-sensitive and throwing fits (blaming the dog for his failure to match pitch in singing) is perhaps not a good mama though
10:34 pm
Jacula
38D (UK size) and George (named after Mr. Clooney) wa s no problem top pop in there to try to warm up.
10:35 pm
babbz
good night all, it was a good try! Wish me luck with my daughters send-off!

sweet dreams babbz (((hugs))) may your child's journey be pleasant!
10:36 pm
Bugsaw
no, even OCD people need reality checks sometimes. We all have to learn to own our own behaviour without blaming. The poor dog may not have helped but is was for fun, so not to worry
10:36 pm
jmcnrick
sounds like a good mama to me stiddie

My daughter had her 23rd birthday yesterday. She's probably still drinking to it now (3.37am UK time).
10:37 pm
stidmama
I just wish mama-ing were easier on the heart. I feel sad when I can't smooth the whole world for my kids; when I lack the skills to help them learn the things that will let them be happy, productive adults someday.
10:37 pm
stidmama
wow Jac! and you only 30!
10:38 pm
stidmama
but maybe some things have to be learned in person, not second-hand.
10:38 pm
Bugsaw
stid, read John O

Thanks jmc.
10:39 pm
stidmama
John O? who is he?
10:39 pm
Bugsaw
john O'Donohue I mean. He has the best line about how to forgive ourselves for the times when we parent badly. I will find it for you for when we meet
10:39 pm
jmcnrick
mammaing hurts because if it didn't we would be really bad at it
10:39 pm
stidmama
thanks Bugs.
10:39 pm

'Night Scrabbs. Hope I haven't nagged you out of the chog.
10:39 pm

10:40 pm
jmcnrick
what i said to my boy is "you are going to complain to your shrink about me for something. it might as well be this."
10:40 pm
Bugsaw
yes, what jmc said
10:40 pm
stidmama
anyway. I was a GOOD teacher today -- helped in my friend's class and the kids I worked with all made progress
10:40 pm
stidmama
I like that, jmc!
10:41 pm
jmcnrick
there you go stiddie!
10:41 pm
Bugsaw
and we will never know what our kids take away from all our good intentions until many years down the road. Today will probably not even register with him
10:41 pm
stidmama
and tomorrow it's the science fair, and the boys' concert on Sunday, and then back to routine (I like routine, though not the heavy reading load) on Tuesday.

Definition of parenting badly - my Other Half's ex, when she ran away for 10 days after her daughter told he she'd been sexually abused by her Mum's parner. She decided that the 10 days away had made her realise she loved him more than she'd previously thought. Hence, her daugher is living with us now,.
10:42 pm
stidmama
true Jac -- I am nowhere close to that leve.
10:42 pm
jmcnrick
see stiddie you are better than that!
10:43 pm
stidmama
or that level even
10:43 pm
jmcnrick
i found that some of the things that i thought were particularly loving and wonderful my boy did not see the same way
10:44 pm
Bugsaw
or, when I went to apologize to me oldest for the worst thing I ever did to him growing up. He thot it was when I dyed all his underpants pink in the laundry
10:44 pm
stidmama
*gasp* really bugs? I am set for life! that happens REGULARLY!
10:44 pm
stidmama
parents and kids have different views, that is for sure.
10:44 pm
Jacula
stid - I wasn't trying to be competetive. I'm just still so p*ssed off at what someoe who should never have been allowed to breed did.
10:45 pm
jmcnrick
when my hubby was in hospital with brain surgery i made a point of having boy live in apartment with me and arranging a fun thing every day and he told me years later he felt neglected by being sent to a new thing everyday!
10:45 pm
Jacula
Pink pants is funny, and if that's the worst thig you ever did, you're doing well.
10:45 pm
Bugsaw
He had no remembrance of the most horrible thing I could ever have said to him and did one day. I carried the guilt of that for years. but the pink underwear that I figured no one should be seeing? ....
10:45 pm
jmcnrick
i was killing myself to work out a good time for him!
10:45 pm
stidmama
I am somewhat handicapped by not remembering most of my childhood. I envy my friends who have clear memories of growing up; all I have are a few vignettes and the occasional random image that pops up.

Pini - tried all of those. I think he needs to visit a sleep clinic. Howver, if they want him to have the nose tube or the fish bowl on the head, I know it's not going to happen.
11:09 pm

I keep trying to encourage him to eaat healthily, since his cholesetol count is high, and I can hear him breathing like my uncle did. The one who had 2 heart attacks and eventualy died of lung and bowel cancer. But every healthy meal I make, e turns into an unhealthy one by whacking lots of bread and butter into it.

I love his haiy chest, even though I hated the thought of hairy men before I met him. I don't want to see that lovely chest with a bloody great operation scar down the middle of it. And, anyway, he's my toyboy - he's suppossed to outlive me.
