It's missing some rather obvious options, like a full-screen, randomized slideshow.

m9: if I wasn't really lazy, I might at some point write a training program that gives you hints on what words are related to others
12:22 am
m9f9l
now that would be interesting reading!
12:22 am
dcseain
cl 4,5,4,5 from left C 5s are plurals

12:24 am

gortmold
hiya jilli, m9, how's your lives?
1:32 am
jillibus
just fine, thx gort
1:32 am
m9f9l
all my en's start with omega.
1:33 am
gortmold
well that
1:33 am
gortmold
's a start at least, thanks m9
1:35 am
gortmold
glad to hear it jili, happen to know any cures for insomnia that aren't addictive drugs or matchsticks?
1:35 am
jillibus
solitaire?
1:35 am
m9f9l
really boring books
1:35 am
m9f9l
getting in bed with lights off is a good start.
1:36 am
jillibus
banana and milk
1:36 am
m9f9l
what does that mean... matchsticks?
1:36 am
herinfernallady
HI
1:36 am
m9f9l
you quitting smoking??
1:37 am
gortmold
matchsticks to prop eyes open, which now that i think about it is more a cure for narcolepsy than insomnia, but i'm that sleep deprived, i don't know which way is up!
1:37 am
Gеогgе
start reading Leo Tolstoy's 'War and Peace'!
1:37 am
Gеогgе
would put me to sleep in a hurry, ha!
1:38 am
m9f9l
that's what i say, geo.. first thing to do for insomnia is get in bed! and then try reading a boring book
1:38 am
Gеогgе
have you seen a doctor about this? might be a sleep clinic that could help you -- and yeah, bed might help?
1:39 am
gortmold
yep, tried all that, read the phone book - forwards, backwards, upside down forwards, upside down backwards
1:39 am
m9f9l
studies have shown that lights mess with sleep patterns.. so turning down lighting helps
1:39 am
Gеогgе
god, can't get more boring than that!
1:39 am
gortmold
have done addictive drugs, non-addictive drugs, herbal stuff, breathing exercise, physical exercise
1:39 am
gortmold
and one night i went completely bonkers and tried lying horizontally in bed
1:40 am
Gеогgе
well yeah, I'm usually horizontal whey I'm lying down
1:40 am
Gеогgе
when, not whey!
1:40 am
m9f9l
uh... I lie horizontally in bed too...
1:40 am
Gеогgе
too bloody early in the morning for me!
1:41 am
herinfernallady
Yawwwwwn
1:41 am
Gеогgе
yeah, I don't sleep well lying vertically, ha!
1:41 am
m9f9l
good idea herin! YAAaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwnnnnnn
1:41 am
herinfernallady
You tried reading a Corporation Law book that will send you ni ni
1:41 am
gortmold
yes, tried plenty of prayer, but i get my knickers in a knot at 3 am trying to articulate myself to God and just let flip the brain open and let God make of the scrambled contents what he will
1:41 am
m9f9l
(is that making you sleepy Gort?)
1:42 am
Christine
diagonally?
1:42 am
herinfernallady
Meditation is the key. Plain boring bedroom no stimulations like tv and bright colours and comfy beding
1:42 am
m9f9l
what's got your brain spinning around?? anxiety?
1:43 am
Gеогgе
one Sunday morning I was sitting up in bed with my laptop tweeting and that, when a friend of mine on twitter messaged me to give me this link to this other person's page -- who tweeted that they had just seen me pass them on the motorway in a car! lol! that was funny, had to pinch myself -- then another m8 commented, saying 'not driving in your sleep again are you?'
1:43 am
Gеогgе
cos I said 'not me, I'm in my bed!'
1:43 am
gortmold
not particularly worried, but can't stop mind racing. Sometimes it feels like David helfgott living in my noggin!
1:44 am
herinfernallady
Gort did you read my suggestions?
1:44 am
Gеогgе
must be awful really, gortmold, you must be bloody knackered all the time!?
1:45 am
gortmold
yes, thanks herin, bedroom is suitably dull and dim
1:45 am
gortmold
zigackly, george
1:45 am
herinfernallady
It has to be comfy too. Not to warm etc
1:45 am
herinfernallady
I really really really don't want my half sister to go to Afghanistan
1:45 am
Gеогgе
do you ever get any sleep at all, gort?
1:46 am
gortmold
contemplating grasping electric fence, barefoot in wet grass, just to see if i can rescramble the neurons
1:46 am
gortmold
get about 3 hours some nights, george
1:46 am
lynxxx
You could listen to all the election waffle Gort, could gone on for another week and boring enough to put you to sleep
1:46 am
m9f9l
maybe start writing down what the things your brain is thinking about. Maybe that will give your brain permission to quit running them around if it knows you've put the thoughts down solid.
1:46 am
lynxxx
Hello everyone
1:47 am
Gеогgе
and that's about the most, gort?
1:47 am
herinfernallady
Hi lynx
1:47 am
gortmold
good point, lyn, it really is as thrilling as watching gravel grow
1:47 am
gortmold
actually m9, think you might be onto something there
1:47 am
Gеогgе
I would pass on the electric fence idea, gort, or you might be sleeping all right -- permanently!!
1:48 am
herinfernallady
Gort I use meditation a lot that and a salt bath to relax (epson salt stuff)
1:48 am
gremlinn
Sleeping with the fishes, ya know.

1:49 am
gapeach
May I please have a clue for ac7-44? Thanks
1:49 am
gremlinn

1:49 am
Gеогgе

1:50 am
Gеогgе

1:50 am
gortmold

1:50 am
Gеогgе

1:52 am
herinfernallady
GORT no bad
1:52 am
m9f9l
done with 8's
1:52 am
gortmold
well thanks all for your suggestions, think top of the list is m9's cathartic "trap the throught by writing it down" idea followed by reading war&peace in a dull, dim salt bath while fighting off the fishies that apparently want to sleep with me!
1:52 am
Christine

Hi - been in and out a bit today - supposed to be working
2:18 am
jillibus
m9, I just sent you an invite on msn. I think pini did too before she left.
2:19 am
jillibus
oh, not msn -- yahoo pulse!
2:19 am
jillibus
I'm half asleep.
2:19 am
m9f9l
I'm never on msn! But I'll look
2:19 am
jillibus
So maybe you need to check your yahoo mail.
2:20 am
jillibus
not msn -- yahoo pulse!
2:20 am
flosey
I'm off to bed, goodnight all
2:21 am
flosey
back tomorrow at, or around! flip
2:21 am
jillibus
Night flosey -- I'll be off soon too -- still 63 left though.
2:21 am
jillibus
Have a good day!
2:22 am
flosey
good luck, jilli, thanks, pre-op check with Dr.McG, then lunch at the Bistro at Cherry Point Winery, then (hopefully) down to Victoria
2:23 am
m9f9l
how did you send an msn if I'm not on there??
2:23 am
m9f9l
I just signed up there though'
2:24 am
m9f9l
i used to do yahoo messenger..
2:24 am
m9f9l
i don't even know where to find it now
2:26 am
jillibus
Just check your yahoo mail, m9 -- I think it will guide you.
2:27 am
m9f9l
I'm setting it up. haven't had it in years since it used to drive tim crazy on his laptop..and that's all we had for a long time
2:28 am
m9f9l
hey wow.. I had 4 pending invites
2:29 am
m9f9l
oh crud! I totally forgot about laundry...
2:31 am
herinfernallady
M9 thanks I just remembered that mysefl
2:36 am
m9f9l
I guess I just usally chat in fb
2:37 am
jillibus
I don't chat in fb but do look at the news there and play Lexulous.
2:38 am
m9f9l
ok.. I have messenger now
2:39 am
m9f9l
but you're not on it?
2:39 am
m9f9l
at the moment?
2:40 am
jillibus
NOT messenger -- just yahoo pulse. I'm confused. Yahoo pulse has profiles, updates, guestbooks, contacts.
2:40 am
jillibus
I haven't been on yahoo messenger.
2:40 am
m9f9l
i didn't see anything called pulse?? I looked all over my yahoo...
2:41 am
jillibus
It's just the regular Yahoo page.
2:42 am
anike
Yay!! Finished but no fireworks today.
2:42 am
anike
I'm wrong - the fireworks were just slow on the uptake
2:42 am
jillibus
why no fireworks, anike? Congrats anyway!
2:44 am
anike
Well I should get back to work, I suppose. I only have another 1 or 2 grids I can tackle before heading east for a couple of weeks.
2:45 am
jillibus
and I should get to bed!
2:46 am
jillibus
A manageable 58 left for tomorrow, and goodnight all!

herinfernallady
Hi Ruby
3:13 am
lynxxx
very well Ruby, and you?
3:14 am
rubyfoo
I guess all the peeps who left were up very late so now it's the Australian contingent arriving
3:14 am
herinfernallady
yep
3:14 am
rubyfoo
enjoying wonderful weather
3:14 am
rubyfoo
and m9 up very early????
3:15 am
m9f9l

3:16 am
Haz1558
There are Brits as well. Good morning/evening all.
3:17 am
lynxxx
morning Haz
3:17 am
Haz1558
Hello - nice size of a grid today.
3:17 am
herinfernallady
hi Haz
3:18 am
m9f9l
I have 50 left. really should get some sleep.. but I haven't even started that laundry that I realized I hadn't started!
3:18 am
rubyfoo
those tiny ones are not much fun for me
3:18 am
m9f9l
And Tim will need it in about 3 hours when he wakes up!
3:19 am
FMitch
Morning/evening all
Haz is Spangle back to normal today?
3:20 am
rubyfoo
Hello FM, haven't seen you in ages!
3:20 am
lynxxx
hi FM, that's a very nervous cat
3:20 am
FMitch
Hi m9 and ruby!
3:20 am
Haz1558
Yes, she's fine, she's had her morning quota of treats and has settled down to guard duty. She was so confused yesterday when the routine wasn't as normal.
3:21 am
rubyfoo
is the weather good in the UK? So I'll know what to look forward to.....
3:21 am
FMitch
*grin* I know lynxxx, a babbler had it as an icon ages ago and I copied it into my pics.
3:22 am
Haz1558
That cat looks as though it has taken to heart the advice 'If you want to wake up with a smile on your face, sleep with a hanger in your mouth.'
3:22 am
FMitch
awful weather here ruby, torrential rain for 48 hours but dry at the mo and a tease for sunshine tomorrow.
3:22 am
rubyfoo
that means rain in 2 days here
3:24 am
FMitch
Glad Spangle is back to normal, I guess there will be much arranging of paws seeing as she missed a day :)
3:25 am
Haz1558
Yes, and extra vigilance against all felines.
3:25 am
FMitch
Talking of arranging of paws = thinks of Hobbit = Where is Ata?
3:26 am
Haz1558
I think she does not love us any more.
3:26 am
lynxxx
I must ask what happened with Spangle
3:26 am
FMitch
mmm feeling very neglected by her :(
3:26 am
Haz1558
I think she has found more interesting friends. Ones who know about Star Trek and who can recite Tolkien.
3:27 am
FMitch
Tsk Haz, not Star Trek - Dr Who (for heavens sake)!
3:27 am
Haz1558
Spangle had a bit of dental work done, lynxxx and her ears syringed. It meant having an anaesthetic and she was really groggy when she came home.
3:28 am
Haz1558
Oh, Star Trek, Star Wars, Dr Who are all one big mass of the unknown for me.
3:28 am
lynxxx
Hopefully you have a tame vet - bit of dental work here means $600-$1,000!
3:29 am
FMitch
and I thought we were converting you slowly/subtly.
3:29 am
Haz1558
A tame vet and a staff who'll do anything for some biscuits for their tea break.
3:29 am
lynxxx
Lovely - well for you anyway. Very confusing for Spangle
3:29 am
FMitch
lynxxx, don't forget that MrHaz is a vet
3:30 am
lynxxx
no I didn't, lol
3:30 am
FMitch
although he prefers bovines aparently.
3:31 am
Haz1558
He didn't do the deed himself, just delivered her to the surgery and let them loose on her.
3:32 am
lynxxx
Greyhounds all seem to all have rotten teeth, much build up tartar (even with bones) - have to increase the daily teeth brushing of Stew to avoid the dreaded vet bill
3:33 am
rubyfoo
seems to be the one strong thing about the chows, all 5 of them, they eat hard biscuits at night and have lovely white teeth, even when Rufus was 10!
3:34 am
Haz1558
Apparently Spangle still had 3 baby teeth at the back and they were taken out because they were acting as a magnet for the tartar.
3:34 am
rubyfoo
when do dogs lose their baby teeth?
3:34 am
rubyfoo
I've never noticed that.... :(
3:35 am
lynxxx
about 6 months isn't it?
3:35 am
rubyfoo
does the tooth fairy visit?
3:36 am
Haz1558
When they're puppies - those little sharp things that ter you to shreds. They normally disappear. I had one lady who phoned me in distress because her puppy had lost a tooth, there was blood on its gum and would it be okay? Normally you don't even know that they've gone.
3:36 am
lynxxx
I imagine they eat them, they are usually chewing everything in sight at that stage
3:36 am
rubyfoo
I was just thinking I must be a bad dog mother
3:36 am
Haz1558
Yes, I think they just swallow them.
3:36 am
Atalante
helllooooo :)
3:36 am
Haz1558
If tooth fairies start to visit your puppy, next step is the Home for the Bewildered.
3:37 am
lynxxx
and did she ring at 10pm Sunday night Haz?
3:37 am
Haz1558
SHE'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3:37 am
lynxxx
Hello Miss Ata!
3:37 am
rubyfoo
Happy to see Ms Ata!!!!!
3:37 am
Haz1558
It was a Saturday evening, I think. It took a bit of persuasion that she didn't need to get a blood transfusion.
3:38 am
Atalante
how's Spanglettina?
3:38 am
Haz1558
She is much better than yesterday. She's entirely back to normal, not swaying anymore, not looking confused.
3:39 am
lynxxx
Diary of the Wife an Irish Country Vet - I can see a book in it already
3:39 am
Atalante
a friend's dog is having an op today to laser off her eyelashes
3:39 am
FMitch
Ata!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3:39 am
rubyfoo
does the dog have entropion?
3:39 am
Haz1558
How's Hobbitellinarinadingalingatinkerbella?
3:39 am
Atalante
ermmm she has inverted eyelashes if that's the same thing!
3:39 am
Haz1558
I could see a book, but husband is terrified of people recognising themselves!
3:39 am
lynxxx
wow. Sounds weird but bet it saves a lot of eye ulcers
3:39 am
Atalante
hobbitella's fine, being the scourge of the local rabbits
3:40 am
FMitch
LOL Haz surely you could have got a few more names in there?
3:40 am
Haz1558
I thought I was doing pretty well. Sometime, I'll incorporate all the Geldof girls.
3:41 am
Haz1558
Yes, entropion=inverted eyelashes, and it's very painful.
3:41 am
Atalante
I went past Sir Bob's house earlier
3:41 am
Haz1558
And was he scowling?
3:41 am
rubyfoo
chows have a big problem with that which gives them runny eyes, but the vets here lack experience with the breed and the surgery can give them droopy eyes
3:41 am
Atalante
is he ever not?
3:41 am
lynxxx
he doesn't live in Ireland!?
3:42 am
FMitch
HArd to tell under all that stubble I would imagine.
3:42 am
Haz1558
I think I'd be in a permanent bad mood as well if I had daughters with those names. Every day 'What was I thinking?'
3:42 am
Atalante
nope, he lives a mile or two from me
3:42 am
Haz1558
No, Sir Bob lives in England. If he lived in Ireland people would tell him to lighten up.
3:43 am
Atalante
not that I know this, of course, it's impossible to know where local famous people live
3:43 am
rubyfoo
yay, painless half!
3:43 am
Haz1558
Impossible - controlled air space and everything and blanks on the map.
3:44 am
Atalante
absolutely
3:44 am
FMitch
Totally incognito
3:44 am
rubyfoo
no kidding! They really do that? Like a military base
3:44 am
Atalante
only in Kent
3:45 am
FMitch
There are blanked out areas on google maps ruby.
3:45 am
rubyfoo
now you're putting me on....
3:45 am
Haz1558
Yes, but you have to be a certain standard of celebrity before they award you what's called blank map status.
3:45 am
rubyfoo
the only one I knew about was where I grew up, between LaGuardia and Kennedy airports.
3:45 am
rubyfoo
not blanked because of my dad, that's for sure
3:45 am
Haz1558
Forget about being A list, what they all aim for is a blank map. Then they, and only they, know that they've arrived.
3:46 am
Haz1558
The rest of the population hasn't a clue.
3:46 am
rubyfoo
this village is so obscure that you can practically see the dogs on googleearth
3:47 am
FMitch
must be g-list then :)
3:47 am
rubyfoo
for nbt, anybody have the a?
3:47 am
lynxxx
high cards
3:47 am
FMitch
Anyhoo, how are you Ata dear?
3:47 am
Haz1558
ac4 - aim for them in cards or tennis
3:47 am
rubyfoo
do I get a fish slap for that?
3:48 am
Atalante
tiiiired. been running about madly. might have to have another mri for knee.
3:48 am
Haz1558
No, but consider yourself under a fish warning.
3:48 am
lynxxx
ac7 ac & is that a *****ion Ruby
3:48 am
lynxxx
not good Ata
3:49 am
rubyfoo
lovely word, lynxx!
3:49 am
Haz1558
Do you have to wait long for the MRI?
3:49 am
FMitch
Oh dear Ata!
3:49 am
Atalante
nope, private through D@s insurace
3:49 am
rubyfoo
that is rotten about your knee!
3:50 am
FMitch
Please don't abuse your knee, you will regret it in later life.
3:50 am
lynxxx
listen to FM, she speaks sense
3:50 am
Atalante
I'm not!!! I was standing completely still, and something popped again
3:51 am
rubyfoo
best RX, lie down -- a lot!!!
3:51 am
Haz1558
Bad thing, popping out.
3:51 am
Haz1558
Things have come to a pretty pass when FM is described as talking good sense.
3:51 am
lynxxx
Do you have anything on it now Ata? like some sort of knee brace to hold it all in place?
3:51 am
Atalante
looooool yes
3:52 am
Haz1558
She who took the blame now speaks pearls of wisdom.
3:52 am
FMitch
umm excuse me you just said and I quote "been running about madly"
3:52 am
Atalante
I still wear the brace thing when on the beach, but otherwise it's best not to
3:52 am
Atalante
I didn't mean *really* running!!
3:52 am
FMitch
*Ignores Haz's comment
3:53 am
Haz1558
Walking fast? Standing with purpose? We need running to be clarified.
3:53 am
Haz1558
Or running = busy?
3:53 am
Atalante
rushing, maybe. but certainly at a walking pace!
3:54 am
FMitch
All these years of taking the blame have taught me some good lessons .. and now when I want to pass on some advise ...
3:55 am
Haz1558
It's just hard to see you in an advisory capacity, FM. You're so much more obvious as being to blame. It'll take a while for us to adjust.
3:55 am
FMitch
good grid today by the way
3:55 am
Atalante
poooor fm
3:55 am
rubyfoo
love those s's
3:56 am
lynxxx
Do you have good supportive footwear Ata? Says me who just spent (for me) a fortune on decent shoes - and have found that the tendon at the side of my knee no longer pulls and both my knees are now more stable. My right foot apparently rolled
3:57 am
FMitch
Heavens lynxxx - I think that is the longest post you have ever typed!
3:57 am
Haz1558
Is that pronation, lynxxx? My mother had that and found great relief with special shoes and inserts.
3:57 am
Atalante
I do have good footwear - not that I can wear it cos I can't tie up shoelaces!!
3:58 am
lynxxx
too technical for me Haz!
3:58 am
Haz1558
Were you never taught, Ata?
3:58 am
Atalante
never :(
3:58 am
Haz1558
You'd think Grandpa Einstein would have given lessons, but then that's what happens with genius types.
3:59 am
Atalante
I never learned anything practical
3:59 am
Haz1558
You can get velcro things now instead of laces- you'd probably be able to master them.
4:00 am
Atalante
maybe ....
4:00 am
Haz1558
Oh I think you could. Children going into primary school have them, it's the way forward in shoe fastening technology.
4:00 am
FMitch
Make the shoelaces into Celtic knots and Ata will be happy.
4:01 am
Haz1558
The aiglet is going to be a thing of the past, a babblet only.
4:01 am
Atalante
poor aiglet
4:03 am
Haz1558
Meanwhile, velcro isn't acceptable in enable. Hooray!
4:03 am
Atalante
hello Silverclaw
4:03 am
FMitch
Quelle suprise!
4:03 am
Haz1558
I've just checked 'not found in the dictionary'. The aiglet will have the last laugh after all.
4:04 am
Atalante
if an aiglet could laugh
4:05 am
Haz1558
You think they're too tight-laced?
4:05 am
Atalante
looooool
4:07 am
Haz1558
Anyway, to get back to your shoes, are your feet swollen so you can't get the shoes on or can't you reach easily?
4:08 am
Atalante
just can't reach down easily to that foot
4:09 am
Haz1558
It's very frustrating, isn't it? When my back was giving me trouble, I hated having to be helped into clothes.
4:09 am
Atalante
luckily I have enough shoes that are either flip-flops or slip-ons!
4:09 am
Haz1558
And I know Hobbit is smart, but even she can't do up your laces.
4:09 am
Atalante
nooooooo
4:10 am
Atalante
silverclaw always tries to help though
4:10 am
Haz1558
I thought she would.
4:10 am
lynxxx
Lucky it is Summer. FlipFlops in snow = frostbitten toes
4:10 am
Atalante
VERY lucky it's summer!
4:10 am
Haz1558
She has that look about her - quiet determination.
4:11 am
Haz1558
What do you think of the new Miss Cameron's names?
4:12 am
Atalante
love the Endellion bit!
4:12 am
Haz1558
Florence Rose Pendellion Cameron. I think it sounds very feminine.
4:12 am
FMitch
Have to go, TTFN.
4:12 am
lynxxx
is that your PMs name?
4:12 am
Haz1558
Yes, the Pendellion is pretty.
4:13 am
lynxxx
can be shortened to FloRo !
4:13 am
Atalante
bye dear!
4:13 am
Haz1558
Yes, David Cameron is the PM and his wife has just had a baby. She came unexpectedly early when they were on holiday in Cornwall, and the Pendellion is in honour of Cornwall.
4:14 am
lynxxx
Thats lovely - will win votes for sure. It made the news here as it is only the 3rd baby born to a PM in office apparently
4:14 am
Haz1558
Endellion. Where did I get Pendellion from?
4:14 am
Atalante
your imagination!
4:15 am
Haz1558
I blame the anaesthetic. I'll blame it for every mistake from now on.
4:15 am
Haz1558
If Cherie Blair was one, who was the other no 10 mother?
4:16 am
Atalante
sarah brown?
4:16 am
lynxxx
ummm like Disraeli or some-one way back then
4:16 am
Haz1558
Was he PM at that stage?
4:17 am
Atalante
can't remember! must have been fairly near
4:17 am
lynxxx
apparently, unless our ABC mucked up
4:17 am
Atalante
we believe you!
4:17 am
Haz1558
Third since 1849 - so that puts it further back than Disraeli.
4:18 am
Haz1558
So now to work out who was PM in 1849.
4:19 am
Haz1558
John Russel - 1846 -1852.
4:19 am
Haz1558
He must be the other one since it fits the dates.
4:21 am
Haz1558
The name of the first woman to take her seat in the House of Commons is in the grid.
4:22 am
Atalante
"It didn’t used to be like this at all. Prime Ministers used to get to the top much later in their careers; the last serving PM to father a child was Lord John Russell in 1849."
4:24 am
Haz1558
Yes, if the trend continues we'll have PMs wearing hoodies and skateboarding up Downing Street.
4:24 am
crosshair
good morning everyone
4:25 am
Haz1558
Hello, crossy.
4:25 am
Atalante
ok, must (not) run off for a bit! lovely to see you all! xx
4:26 am
Haz1558
Bye, Ata, good to see you. Be good and watch out for the blank maps.
4:26 am
Atalante
*grins* dangerous, those!!
4:27 am
crosshair
blank maps are the best!.you get to fill in all the fun spots yourself;)
4:27 am
Haz1558
Worse than black holes.
4:27 am
lynxxx
morning Crossy
4:27 am
crosshair
howdy lynxx
4:28 am
lynxxx
I should stop looking for en words, I have all the Es
4:29 am
lynxxx
BBL think I'll get some dinner going
4:29 am
Haz1558
Bye, lynxxx.
4:31 am
crosshair
lol,seems to be the rule.if i can find 50 easily that means there is 150 words,if i find 100,that means there is 250,if i find 150,that means there is 300+ lol
4:32 am
Haz1558
But sometimes there are nasty grids that wreck all preconceived ideas of the norm.
4:32 am
crosshair
ahh yes,usually small ones where i find 15 words and there are 88
4:39 am
Haz1558
Well, so far, this grid seems to be on the normal side, so your equations should work.
4:52 am
Haz1558
Enjoy the grid, crossy, maybe see you later. I'm off to get the day kicked into shape. Bye!
5:18 am
Scrabbler
Good day, Babblers!
5:19 am
sandyloo
hi scrab, how are the rabbits
5:20 am
Scrabbler
All so darn cute. I give them a plate of greens every morning + evening. They get so excited, standing up on their hind feet.
5:20 am
Scrabbler
How is your daughter's shoulder?
5:20 am
sandyloo
how many do you have? and have you had them since babies?
5:21 am
Scrabbler
4 bunnies, 2 since they were babies (rescued from children playing with them in pet stores) and 2 were foster bunnies that I adopted.
5:22 am
Scrabbler
They are now 8, 6, 5 and 3.
5:22 am
sandyloo
thanks for asking. Her last operation has held for just over a year now, so we live in hope. She still has pain but we dont have to get up and go to the emergency dept every second nite now. so thank god for small blessings
5:23 am
Scrabbler
Any movement? Does she get along well each day?
5:23 am
sandyloo
Are they house trained? and do you have other pets as well?
5:24 am
sandyloo
the shoulder grates around and she is not that active. but she is helping with the dishes and trying . we even went to the pool for a swim (gently on her part) so she is coming along very slowly
5:25 am
sandyloo
She is getting up each morning and goes to bed at a reasonable time so in my mind that is progression
5:25 am
Scrabbler
Yep, they are litter box trained--easy to do right from the start. One has the entire downstairs. A gate is at the stairs. Then I have 1 in each bedroom upstairs--gates at their doorways. Bunnies are quite territorial and it is tough to bond them. My sister has bonded brothers and they are so cute together.
5:25 am
Scrabbler
Does she have other problems?
5:25 am
sandyloo
I love rabbits, but think that my jack russels love them too
5:26 am
sandyloo
She has depression from all this scrabs. but she has a strong mind so she is not too bad and is improving slowly
5:27 am
Scrabbler
Good. Keep her busy.
5:27 am
sandyloo
Luckily , I have a strong mind too LOL
5:27 am
sandyloo
She is good company for me most of the time, but I wish she had more of a life for herself
5:27 am
Scrabbler
Good--that helps you and everyone around you.
5:28 am
sandyloo
I am working on it !
5:28 am
sandyloo
We have wild rabbits around here and the dogs hunt them, I think it would be too hard for them to differentiate
5:29 am
sandyloo
Cant imagine how bad it would be if we got a pet rabbit and they killed it
5:29 am
Scrabbler
I can't bear the thought.
5:29 am
sandyloo
They are good with the cat and the chooks tho
5:29 am
Scrabbler
Chooks = chickens, right?
5:30 am
sandyloo
I am glad that lickety is up at last
5:30 am
Scrabbler
I learned that when chatting with Atalante's sister last week.
5:31 am
sandyloo
LOL the english know what chooks are and the american seem not to know
5:32 am
Scrabbler
I just finished the 3rd book by an Irish author (Tana French) and it is fascinating how varied English is.
5:32 am
sandyloo
You like her books? what does she write about?
5:34 am
Scrabbler
Members of the Dublin Murder squad. First book was great! (In the Woods). Second book focused on 1 character (The Likeness) and 3rd on another (Faithful Place). Outstanding writing--detailed. Crimesolving from perspectives of the police.
5:35 am
Scrabbler
Actually 1 policeman = Undercover Squad.
5:35 am
sandyloo
sounds interesting something I might like I think
5:36 am
sandyloo
have written them down
5:36 am
Scrabbler
I loved them + may re-read them. Now I have to wait for her to write another book. And I have to decide what to read next.
5:37 am
sandyloo
I just watched the film The Godfather , again and I remember that book was fabulous
5:38 am
Scrabbler
Never read those--dislike Mafia behavior.
5:39 am
sandyloo
well, the mafia behaviour is definitely not good, but the book was great
5:39 am
Scrabbler
I like seeing Italy/Sicily in the movies. My mother's parents grew up in Italy + Sicily
5:40 am
sandyloo
I love the look of Italy, I hope you mum didn't endure any mafia behaviour tho. Have you been to Italy?
5:41 am
Scrabbler
My mother was born here. I want very much to see Italy + Sicily, esp where my grandparents grew up.
5:42 am
sandyloo
You must go then Scrab. We are going to Europe in the next three years. I am looking forward to it. I think Europe has some beautiful places
5:43 am
Scrabbler
The idea of flying that long is frightening to me!
5:43 am
sandyloo
I just read that lovely prayer in your profile, I am going to copy it and give it to Nicky to read
5:44 am
sandyloo
Scrab, I hate flying too, but it is not so bad once you are up in the air. I have been to the States and it is a long flight from Aus that is for sure
5:45 am
sandyloo
I love puzzle books and just concentrate on them when I am flying
5:47 am
Scrabbler
I LOVE that prayer + have it posted in my kitchen to read often.
5:50 am
sandyloo
It's beautiful
5:52 am
Scrabbler
Alright, it is now light out so I can retrieve my newspaper and bring my trash out for pick-up. Bye Sandy!
5:52 am
sandyloo
bye scrab, good to see you again
5:53 am
Scrabbler
Yes, we owned the chat for quite a while!
5:53 am
Sally-catlover
Hi sandy
5:53 am
sandyloo
hi sal, how are you this very cold evening?
5:54 am
Sally-catlover
Playing on my iPad for the first time and it works!
5:54 am
Sally-catlover
It's very wet here but still (just) morning
5:54 am
sandyloo
So you can play babble on an iPad, i didn't realise that
5:56 am
Sally-catlover
Well really there is a browser on the iPad and that is how I am playing but we have the log burner alight so I am sitting by the fire with my feet up.
5:57 am
sandyloo
Isn't it summer there?
5:57 am
sandyloo
Middle of winter here and hardly any rain at all for the whole winter
5:57 am
Sally-catlover
Huh!
5:59 am
sandyloo
We have had sunny days and cloudless skies and freezing cold nights

A friend of mine has a rescue greyhound I met for the first time recently. Gorgeous dog and I fell in love immediately with the breed!
6:04 am
sandyloo
Greyhounds are lovely natured dogs. the problem with them as domestic pets is that they are sight hounds. If you take them out off the leash they may chase other animals and kill them. eg a cat or a small dog - they are trained to pursue game and that is their natural instinct
6:05 am
sandyloo
In australia they may be walked in public but must be muzzled
6:05 am
Sally-catlover
How do you manage yours with the chooks?
6:06 am
sandyloo
we have jack russels and their natural instinct is to kill game. but ours have been trained from puppies and they could be locked up all day with the chooks and wont touch them.
6:07 am
sandyloo
Hounds are different type of dog and the instinct to chase is very strong
6:07 am
Sally-catlover
Ah, don't know why but I thought you had a greyhound
6:08 am
sandyloo
Especially if the greyhound is a rescue dog and has been raced
6:08 am
sandyloo
no I dont , but I know a little about greyhounds
6:09 am
sandyloo
i would never have a hound here on a property
6:12 am
sandyloo
and that goes for whippets, beagles or foxhounds
6:14 am
rubyfoo
yay, my friend sandy!

6:18 am
sandyloo
jolly good ruby, this is a good grid
6:18 am
rubyfoo
sally: the fish loll about on top of the nets now and are so relaxed that they let husband touch them
6:19 am
rubyfoo
sally, did you see that a hawk came in the house on Tuesday and I rescued her?
6:19 am
rubyfoo
I think she thought the bird feeder was a feeder for he, and she missed!
6:20 am
sandyloo
it is a wonder it didn't try to bite you
6:20 am
rubyfoo
like the heron and the fishpond
6:20 am
Sally-catlover
Only been on for about 20 minutes. Yesterday I did completely without any list (proud).
6:20 am
rubyfoo
she was in a panic, but I put a cloth on her shoulders and calmed her right down. I didn't think about her biting me, just didn't want her injured
6:20 am
sandyloo
wow sally, that is good , i got down to 18 then had to list
6:21 am
rubyfoo

rubyfoo

6:27 am
rubyfoo
I always do them first but only found 2!

9:41 am
Anniebrook
That is awful
9:42 am
Good Enough
she has two goldens and can't walk both by herself so she hooks one up outside while she walks the other. the one left behind just barks constantly until she returns.
9:43 am
Good Enough
oh yay. mama has returned home. silence reigns!
9:43 am
rururocks
she should just crate the dog in the house.
9:43 am
Anniebrook
Peace!
9:43 am
rururocks
Buy her a crate
9:44 am
Good Enough
i'm sure they have crates. they just choose not to use them during walk time.
9:45 am
rururocks
that's the answer
9:45 am
rururocks
goldens love crates
9:48 am

M'okay, Stid. Had a bout of food poisoning Tuesday and Wednesday. Am better today. Still a bit shakey in the abdominal area. Eating rice pudding and drinking Vitamin Water.
1:36 pm

zoozzoom

constant panic attack over tomorrow, Judi. I HATE my master's program, but have an all-day thing tomorrow to "prepare" for student teaching.
1:38 pm
doseffing
do you mean the 6/33 ... what you do with thirst
1:38 pm
Judi
Zoom - I'm very envious of your animated icon. Wish I could figure out how to do that.
1:39 pm
ddb4nana
oh my goodness...thanks doseffing!
1:39 pm

I'm sure you'll do fine, Stid. Just pretend you are talking to a room full of Babblers!
1:39 pm

1:43 pm
Judi
What age students will you be teaching?
1:43 pm
stidmama
btw, that word isn't in the grid, I am TRYING (not well) to amend my language choices...
1:43 pm

besides that ... it would be cr 4/5
1:44 pm
dcseain
ah, so you meant crud :)
1:44 pm
stidmama
7th grade language arts. I know what I will teach, pretty much how I want to shape the program, just have to meet the kids and work with them a while before I finalize my plans. I have ten weeks to work with a wonderful master teacher. It's just my faculty are not optimal.
1:45 pm
Judi
Soldier on, Stid. You'll be great. Don't let the bastards get you down.
1:46 pm
stidmama
well, there I am at halfway in about 15 minutes. I think I should stop here and get ready for Mother, who will be here in 15 more minutes.
1:47 pm
sammysmom
the PRINCE is here..... bbl
1:47 pm
stidmama
thanks Judi. I know I CAN do it, but very much NOT optimistic about whether my skills will be recognized by the right people. *grin*
1:47 pm
stidmama
later sammysmom
1:48 pm
stidmama
on the other hand, if I do a really good job then I might be able to get enough references to transfer to a different master's program.
1:48 pm
stidmama
(((hugs all))) I'll be on later tonight probably.

4:25 pm
jillibus

4:25 pm

4:32 pm

Angelsong - I put your book into my Amazon wish-list, for next month - I've ordered four cookbooks this month, so must budget.

4:35 pm
jillibus
thanks, mag, and hi!
4:36 pm
periwinkle
I do not see a threesome on Amazon, jilli, what did you order besides the gps?
4:36 pm
jillibus
is that you in your icon???
4:36 pm
magdagger
who me?
4:37 pm
jillibus
A non-slip stand and a case, peri. But I ordered from Amazon.ca, which may be different from Amazon.com.
4:37 pm
jillibus
yes you, mag :)
4:37 pm
periwinkle
ok jilli
4:38 pm
magdagger
no, it is Tim Curry from Rocky Horror Picture Show. I wished I looked that good in a leather corsette
4:39 pm
jillibus
Oh, ignorant me -- haven't seen the Rocky Horror
4:39 pm
jillibus
that's a guy, mag?
4:41 pm
magdagger
i mean corset. Yes, that is a man in drag.
4:41 pm
jillibus
wow -- good-looker!
4:42 pm
magdagger
lol...strange but entertaining movie if you like musicals
4:43 pm
jillibus
anyone have a clue for sc5/14 and 6/24?
4:43 pm
jillibus
depends on the music, mag!
4:44 pm
TLLC
sc5/14 - parts of an act
4:44 pm
TLLC
sorry - wrong one!!!
4:45 pm
magdagger
sc5/14...to move upward but minus the first letter
4:45 pm
jillibus
I thought that was sc5/12, TL!
4:45 pm
TLLC
sorry wrong box!
4:45 pm
jillibus
thanks again, mag
4:46 pm
magdagger
your very welcome
4:46 pm

4:47 pm

jill, have you ever heard of "The Time Warp"?
4:47 pm
Minski
the dance from Rocky Horror?
4:47 pm
jillibus
monkey is finding some weird ones now, like ro5/20 and 6/33!
4:48 pm
Minski
let's do the time warp again.
4:48 pm
jillibus
No, mag -- a book?
4:49 pm
magdagger
It's just a jump to the left...no it is a song from the movie that is very popular around halloween
4:50 pm
jillibus
I guess I don't know that movie either :(
4:50 pm
Minski
you don't know the Rocky Horror Picture Show? I thought everyone did.
4:50 pm
Christine
Jillibus, the movie's a hoot, but best seen at a cinema.
4:51 pm
Christine
Much interacting with many of the audience.
4:51 pm
magdagger
take props with you
4:53 pm
magdagger
i adore you, jill
4:53 pm
Christine
Toast, and a fan(?), and I think a pack of cards. I wasn't prepared, the first time I saw it -- took my daughter and a friend to the midnight show, the car broke down, couldn't get a cab ... oh yes, I remembered that show - but took them again, about a year later.
4:54 pm
Minski
I've never seen it in the theater, only on the tv and it's still pretty great but it is definitely better in the theatre.
4:56 pm
jillibus
I know OF the Rocky Horror, just never saw it. A little while ago there was a performance somewhere near here and tickets were peddled on the local online community site. I guess I should have grabbed one! But it's not as much fun going to such things alone, I think -- ?
4:57 pm
jillibus
Can't imagine why the adoration, mag!
4:58 pm
magdagger
you made me smile on what was a bad day, jill
5:00 pm
jillibus
oh good that you got a smile, but sorry it's been a bad day :(
5:00 pm
Christine
Throughout the year, a local cinema shows the movie, always at midnight, and people tunup dressed as their favourit character. Before the film, they do a linedance to Time Warp - then the audience gets into the act (tossing toast whe the word occurs in the scrips) and spritzing water at some point. Hood fun.
5:00 pm
jillibus
babble is a good place to go on bad days
5:01 pm
magdagger
nothing like some babble and babblers to cheer me up
5:01 pm
jillibus
Sounds wild, Christine!
5:01 pm
jillibus
So if you haven't seen the show, how do you know who your favourite character is???
5:02 pm
jillibus
Of course, a movie at midnight in this island of early risers would attract about 3 people.
5:06 pm
magdagger
then you can go as a party guest. I went in casual clothing with some gel in my hair and bright lipstick.
5:08 pm
jillibus
I'd scare everyone away, lol!
5:08 pm
EvaNadine
you put your hands on your hips...
5:09 pm

Nahhh, Jill! Trust me
5:11 pm

Jilli, I just order the same gps, a stand and case from Amazaon. thanks for your help
5:11 pm

well, I have to go. It was nice chatting with you all. Take care and Let's do the Time Warp again!
5:12 pm

Refresh to see me on New Year's Eve, 1967, blonde wig and all! Good enuf for a Party guest?

5:15 pm
EvaNadine

::le sigh::
5:15 pm
jillibus

5:16 pm

5:17 pm
periwinkle
yes it would
5:17 pm
jillibus
6 left here -- better get on with it -- lots of other stuff needs doing!
5:18 pm
jillibus
NB was welcomed at first, but got a mixed reaction when he came out. Young cousins stood by him.
5:18 pm
periwinkle
yay for the cousins!!
5:18 pm
EvaNadine
peri -- i believe he was online earlier in the week. apparently the extended family is quite upset with his parents. not so sure they are happy about him being gay, but apparently they are quite appalled that the parents lied because in their culture, they send gifts and money when a family member dies, so they consider his parents to be thiefs now.
5:18 pm
jillibus
Yes indeed -- not easy for them in that society, I guess.
5:19 pm
periwinkle
aw thieves, hmmm. thanks for the update
5:19 pm
jillibus
His parents are horrible.
5:19 pm
dcseain
so, rejection or not, his parents got theirs
5:19 pm
periwinkle
is that the geneal korean culture or just his parents
5:20 pm
periwinkle
general even
5:20 pm
dcseain
mostly korean culture, i think
5:20 pm
dcseain
i know that played in his decision to move to Britain
5:20 pm
periwinkle
must be careful with typing, do not want to ruin my French manicure :)
5:21 pm
jillibus
oh my -- French manicures are impossible for the likes of moi.
5:21 pm
periwinkle
why Jilli?
5:22 pm
jillibus
any clues for the last two ce6/21s?
5:22 pm
periwinkle
had regular pedicure, Chocolate Rose
5:22 pm
jillibus
I have tiny little fingernails, more like toenails. A gift from a grandfather I never knew, I hear.
5:22 pm
EvaNadine
my toes, at the moment, are a very sad and pathetically chipped neon pink
5:23 pm
dcseain
both, CEs are babblets, one with a greek plural, one an english plural
5:23 pm
dcseain
i must away, bbl :) happy babbling yall
5:23 pm
jillibus
Then if I grow them they come out all wavy. Ugh!
5:23 pm
dcseain
oh, and the CEs are related, only last letter differs
5:25 pm
jillibus
fe6/30 and 7/44 please someone?
5:25 pm
EvaNadine
some of my fingernails brow out a little wonky, but if i take care to shape them a certain way, i can actually grow them out relatively long. im quite lucky to have fairly strong nails -- until winter, that is, when they become dry and brittle and split like the dickens.

I aro 4/4 early this morning to start babbling. I knew that I would not finish the grid when I fa4/8ed it this morning because I had a busy day ahead w/my niece and nephew. Gave up after finding 163 words so now I'll le 4/5 a hand with a story of clues. I'm babysitting for my oldest sister, who offered me some ca4/6 for my services.Sometimes my niece can be a pe4/5, but she was good today. It was hot today, so my nephew and niece played with ho5/12 outside.They used 2 ho 5/12 and ho 5/14 eachother down. When they were done, they came inside & pretended to have a party with the 2 dogs. My niece&the dogs were the guests and my nephew was the ho4/5. After that I fed them pe 5/12 alla vodka for lunch. After lunch, we le4/7 to go to the pool. After the pool, I took niece & nephew on a nature walk. My niece found a bird's ne 4/4 and my nephew picked some ro 5/10. When we got back, they watched "Galaxy Qu5/16". My niece laughed at many sc6/21 in the movie.When the movie was over, they ro4/5 in the car with me to get ice cream.Then I took them shopping. My niece got a sh 5/12 and my nephew got an as4/4ment of toys. I made them wear seat belts so they would be sa4/7.When we got back they watched the sh 4/9 Hannah Montana. My story of clues en4/5 here.It makes se5/10 for me to se4/5 myself to bed since I have to get up early tomorrow.

her tv i can't help her with, it's one of the new ones . . .
11:12 pm
gapeach
Thanks y'all.
11:12 pm
dcseain
what's her problem with it?
11:12 pm
Jellen
Hi, peach
11:13 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
you know the new tvs have hundreds of settings, don't you? you can't just turn it on and watch tv anymore
11:13 pm
gapeach
Hi there, Jellen. Prayers are still going for you.
11:13 pm
dcseain
you can, if watch TV is all you do with it
11:14 pm
dcseain
just a matter of selecting the right input, which will vary with cable or off the air
11:14 pm
dcseain
and never hitting the menu button
11:14 pm
Jellen
Thank you peach...I need them!
11:14 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
no, tvs don't even have antennas anymore. but she has cable, so she kept calling the cable co for help, and the 3rd guy they sent was able to explain the basics to her (the first 2 could only talk geekinese)
11:14 pm
joey
jellen, have you gotten the cards that i have sent?
11:15 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
"selecting the right input" does not make sense to my mom, or a lot of people
11:15 pm
dcseain
i understand that. helped set up my friend's mom's tv for her
11:15 pm
Jellen
Yes, joey, thanks!
11:15 pm
joey
just checking, you are very welcome
11:15 pm
dcseain
cable guy was great, explained in simple language what to do. it helped that she had DVR before, too.
11:16 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i have two high-tech-geek friends. first one bought one of the new tvs. 6 hours to set it up. second one, 8 hours to set it up
11:16 pm
dcseain
took me 30 min to set up my friend's mom's new sony. what complications does your mom have?
11:17 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
dc, i cannot help my mom with her tv and i cannot explain the problem to you either. these things are way over my head. which my mom doesn't seem to get, or else she would stop asking me for help with it
11:17 pm
dcseain
:) gotcha
11:18 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i watched my friends set up theirs, though. menu after menu full of technocheese i did not understand. very much like a puter, not a tv
11:19 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
today i caught me mom watching stretch-o-vision. that's the only problem i can help her fix, and she said she did not care. AARRGH!
