1:20 am

carleekat

hmmmm..lamb..... i have lamb in the freezer tooo

1:20 am

flosey

ah, love roast lamb, granny

1:20 am

grannyrose

seeing as it's been in the slow cooker all day, it had better be

1:20 am

carleekat

what do u put with it in slowcooker???

1:21 am

carleekat

i do on barby

1:21 am

grannyrose

i cook it with red wine, rosemary, garlic and a splash of salt

1:21 am

carleekat

how much garlic/

1:22 am

carleekat

that might just be dinner tomorrow...

1:22 am

carleekat

/ today

1:22 am

grannyrose

just a couple of squeezes from the garlic press

1:22 am

carleekat

okie kokie....

1:23 am

grannyrose

meat falls apart...mother mac loves it, and come to think, so do we...

1:23 am

carleekat

with baby potatoes...

1:23 am

carleekat

oh..wait..i have sweet potatoes...oven roasts in olive oil

1:24 am

carleekat

adn dill....

1:24 am

grannyrose

i freeze the juices from this one, and then i have the juices for the next time to make gravy. saves a lot of fiddling about trying to make gravy while trying to keep the rest of the meal hot.

1:24 am

carleekat

a salad with cucumber and grape tomatoes

1:25 am

flosey

clever, granny

1:25 am

grannyrose

weather cold enough here to have full roast, potatoes, pumpkin, plus heaps of carrots, beans, and mint peas

1:25 am

carleekat

( what kind of red do u usually put in???)

1:26 am

carleekat

and how much red?

1:26 am

grannyrose

the cheapest i can fi4 at the bottle shop. *grin* wouldn't waste a really good red on cooking

1:26 am

grannyrose

usually use about a cup of red wine

1:27 am

carleekat

ummm..well all mine is cheap...i made it from m-in-ls store...

1:27 am

carleekat

i have cab sav, shiraz, malbec, amerone, chianti, nero d'avola

1:27 am

carleekat

pinot no4

1:28 am

flosey

I've used that one with beef, carlee, or cab sav

1:28 am

grannyrose

i use my slow cooker a lot, even in warmer weather. cook corned beef, pickled pork, chicken, beef and lamb. gives me hot meat to go with salads in summer.

1:28 am

carleekat

dont suppose u have the bottle still rm?

1:29 am

flosey

I really don't think

1:29 am

grannyrose

darn, threw it into the recycling this AM. think it was a cab sav

1:29 am

flosey

lol, started to say, price doesn't matter in cooking,

1:30 am

carleekat

ok...will hunt about....i might not have cab sav..might be a cab merlot

1:30 am

flosey

that would do also, carlee

1:30 am

carleekat

i have never cooked lamb indoors...i dont like the smell of red meat in the house

1:30 am

grannyrose

when slow cooking a piece of beef, try dion mustard , spread over the top, while cooking, gives an absolutely yummy zip to the gravy

1:30 am

flosey

I don't drink red, just use whatever hubby has

1:31 am

carleekat

i adore red wine.....

1:31 am

carleekat

taking me bottle to the pb

1:31 am

flosey

have always had to avoid it - migraine trigger

1:32 am

grannyrose

anyway, as i was saying, must check out dinner, brb

1:32 am

carleekat

most people who have the reds from the do it yourselfers...dont have the headache problem

1:33 am

flosey

really? wonder what the difference would be

1:33 am

carleekat

preservatives

1:33 am

jillibus

oak, maybe?

1:33 am

carleekat

not the oak,,,,the preservatives

1:33 am

jillibus

try Naked Grape, flosey

1:33 am

carleekat

its the metabisulphites

1:34 am

flosey

I drink so little now anyway

1:34 am

jillibus

I think some Chilean wines don't have sulphites

1:34 am

flosey

just a bit to socialize

1:34 am

jillibus

I'm SO glad I don't get migraines

1:35 am

carleekat

metabisulphite is a natural component of wine... but if u think a shipment of wine is sent by boat..exposed to whatever conditions it is....from what ever ports..and then shipped across land...with whatever conditions

1:35 am

carleekat

the do it yourselfers... the product doesnt require that to ensure the product is the same as it leaves the winery...in your trunk....to ur home

1:36 am

carleekat

but australian wines..headed to europe....the flavour must be the same as it is in australia....else..the product fails

1:36 am

carleekat

and its the sulphites that give u the headache

1:37 am

flosey

yup

1:37 am

jillibus

sounds realistic, carlee -- but local wineries' products ditto, I should think, too?

1:38 am

carleekat

the do it yourself kits....the customer starts with the grape juice...

1:38 am

carleekat

u need to put in a small ammount of the sulphite to kill the yeast...and to stablize...

1:38 am

flosey

first time I ever made wine, from grapes, it was very good, so I was told

1:39 am

flosey

lol, that was over 50 years ago

1:39 am

jillibus

I bet, flosey -- everything you do is good

1:39 am

carleekat

but no where what the commercial wineries use....cus again...their product has to withstand extremes in temps....sitting in cargo holds in their shipping container...sit in port...wait in customs.....port to port....

1:41 am

flosey

ah jilli, have had my share of failures

1:41 am

carleekat

then cross land by transport....in winter..or in extreme temps in summer...extreme cold affects the product as much as extreme heat

1:41 am

carleekat

i am stuck with 46 to find

1:41 am

flosey

I have 72 to go

1:42 am

jillibus

I have a mere 158, lol

1:42 am

2:29 am

:D Real life comes first, right?

2:29 am

jillibus

but that's good -- you'll cover your time zone.

2:30 am

jillibus

you betcha -- these neighbours are a joy

2:30 am

sprite

yeah I don't think people will object. And if they do, I will force them to think up 10 babble themes. For the time to come I am covering about all, lol.

2:31 am

jillibus

yes, I've noticed -- time for some begging, I think -- but you're doing a great job!

2:32 am

sprite

I found a site with all kinds of holidays and I shamelessly draw upon it. No more worries about thinking up themes for the rest of the year.

2:34 am

sprite

da4, etui is a phantom

2:35 am

jillibus

yes -- haven't found nay old friens like that so far

2:36 am

2:36 am

jillibus

typo time, I see -- fatigue setting in...

2:37 am

sprite

it is a nice way to wind down after a good evening, isn't it, babble :)

2:37 am

sprite

lol... and for once I spot sieur... and that is a phantom too.

2:39 am

jillibus

yes indeed (and I spooter sieur too, for a change)

2:39 am

sprite

grin... well at least we are spotting tough words. We only need to work on our timing ;)

2:40 am

jillibus

2:40 am

sprite

2:41 am

jillibus

Well, 50 left for the morrow -- maybe I'll have time after bridge.

2:41 am

jillibus

Goodnight all and *poof* (zzzzzzzz)

2:43 am

jillibus

Just found a hillbilly joke while shutting down:

2:43 am

jillibus

Hillbilly Honeymoon

Once there was a hillbilly boy who, after getting his G.E.D. (high school equivalency diploma), went to work for his father in the family business of Rust-Collecting.

One day he met a hillbilly girl and they hit it off and started dating. They enjoyed each other's company, and both liked the same things, like Cow-Tipping and Beater-Car-Smashing. Eventually, they decided to marry.

After the ceremony, the boy was really looking forward to the wedding night, and to show how big a deal this marriage was, he took his new bride to an actual,money-paying Motel. When they arrived, his wife went into the bathroom to change, while he was getting ready himself. She came out of the bathroom dressed in her sexiest burlap, and the boy grabbed her and tossed her on the bed. "Be gentle with me," she said,"I'm a virgin."

The boy immediately flew into a rage, got dressed, grabbed the girl and threw her into the back of his pickup truck. He screeched to a stop in front of her parents' house, threw her out, and burned rubber outta there. He drove to his Dad's house and told him the whole story through eyes filled with tears. His Dad comforted him and said,"You did the right thing, son---don't feel bad. A VIRGIN??!! Well, if she wasn't good enough for HER family, she sure isn't good enough for OURS!!!"

2:44 am

sprite

grinnnnn pulling a jilli on me?

2:44 am

sprite

ohhhhhhhhh! *shocked*

2:45 am

jillibus

shocked, shocked, I'm sure.

2:45 am

sprite

poor girl. Must be from where they say a virgin is a girl who can outrun her uncle...

2:45 am

jillibus

I did say I was shutting down...

5:00 am

LoriP

2 to find? I feel like I've only found two.....

FMitch

So hows things with you Lori and hows Uni and is it cold there now ... and ... and?

5:02 am

FMitch

Thanks Sally but I will have a look at lickety in a mo.

Wow that must have been some deluge!

5:03 am

LoriP

Uni is happy as a clam, life is being kind to her. A certain dental related event is happening for me enxt week. Very pensive but excited. :)

5:04 am

LoriP

It was truly unreal. At various points it sounded like we were in a car going through a carwash it rained so hard, and so steady. I'd never seen anything like it. We considered building an Ark

5:04 am

FMitch

That is great re Uni, give her a hug from me and do let me know how you get on next week - what day so I can send you good vibes?

5:05 am

LoriP

Sally-catlover

FMitch

5:12 am

LoriP

FM, stop being mean to sally.

5:13 am

Sally-catlover

Thank you Lori.

5:14 am

Sally-catlover

The di 7 isn't a gift, it's an optical measurement. Are you thinking of something else Lori?

5:14 am

FMitch

*offers tea, coffee and muffins around as a peace offering*

5:14 am

LoriP

I know, I meant spelling it wrong was a gift..... (I typed that out very badly)

6:59 am

rubyfoo

just read your credo (again) soodle, it is inspiring and frequently needs re-reading!

7:00 am

MollyL

Soodle, you reminded me of the poster here who's name starts with fuq. There was no way I was shortening that either. Or Boobie Toucher.

7:01 am

rubyfoo

7:01 am

MollyL

Truly Ruby, I did not.

7:02 am

NonoNanette

7:02 am

rubyfoo

that is too funny!

7:02 am

Soodle

I know the Fuq........ and your right. How the heck can you shorten that?

7:03 am

7:13 am

herinfernallady

Wet is great. It is just wet LD

herinfernallady

Night Mr Pres

7:35 am

GreyWoulf

TO -- as soon as they realize that I am playing, Seb is asking me to type -- only prob is that he still hasn't quite got the hang of spelling yet

7:35 am

GreyWoulf

7:36 am

7:38 am

MollyL

Hi Mom. I know, Nono. Sounds like something running around Jurrassic Park.

7:38 am

Soodle

LOL - GreyWoulf - with words like that, maybe your son's lack of spelling ability would be a help!

7:38 am

72 Temple Owl

7:39 am

Mom

((Herin, TO, Soodle and Carlee)) bye for now

7:39 am

GreyWoulf

theres a new Taco Bell?

7:40 am

72 Temple Owl

hatfiled, but i did not realize it, said lansdale on line

7:40 am

Soodle

Bye Moll. And tell those curtain people to pull themselves together (!)

7:40 am

GreyWoulf

I can't eat there -- Taco Bell and Burger King both use oils in cooking that upset my gut, so I avoid both

7:40 am

72 Temple Owl

n. broad, i had never been there. did not realize it went out to 309,

7:42 am

GreyWoulf

Believe it or not, I don't go up that way often myself -- I always forget what it there -- usually I go up 309 when heading that way -- which is only for Walmart most of the time

7:43 am

GreyWoulf

oops - typing skills for chat are rusty -- forget what IS there (meaning n broad)

7:43 am

72 Temple Owl

well i can eat steak soft taco no sauce only. was really fresh and good. i actually was on a mission to odd lots.

7:48 am

GreyWoulf

So how is everyone doing?
I am still working crazy hours at work (48-52 each week) but we are making progress on creating/justifying the new position that will allow that to change (hopefully by beginning of the new year)

7:53 am

carleekat

that is me done

7:54 am

7:59 am

72 Temple Owl

wow!

7:59 am

carleekat

they are rather funny arent they welki?

8:01 am

welki

the original eclipse cracked me up, so the remake just about had me falling of my chair

8:01 am

carleekat

yeap..iknow..perfectly done

8:01 am

welki

...and the cat one. at work, we use the term, 'it's like herding cats' all the time :)

8:02 am

welki

(this is a pretty friendly grid)

8:03 am

carleekat

i cant believe the cat laid still

8:03 am

carleekat

had to have been stoned on catnip

8:04 am

welki

nah, we have one who'd let us do that. the kids dressed her up in a tuxedo once, she couldn't have cared less

8:05 am

carleekat

mine would not tollerate it

8:07 am

welki

i'll send tosca to you, you could wear her like a feather boa

8:09 am

carleekat

i have 3 cats...i dont need a 4th

8:09 am

carleekat

but thanks

8:09 am

carleekat

and my 3 all have their claws

8:10 am

herinfernallady

What is with people declawing their cats

8:10 am

welki

tosca lives with two dogs, she'd be all right

8:11 am

carleekat

some poeple do herin..i dont

8:11 am

carleekat

i just assume most people do now days

8:11 am

Soodle

Carlee - I just watched Total Eclipse of the Heart. I laughed out loud......totally brilliant.

8:12 am

carleekat

yeap...it is

8:12 am

herinfernallady

Why I think it should be banned it is cruel and unnecessary

8:12 am

carleekat

pretty funny

8:12 am

carleekat

i do too herin... but...lots of people do it

8:13 am

welki

<-- thinks that if other avenues have been exhausted, it's better than adding to the number of surrendered animals

8:14 am

carleekat

thats true too...

8:14 am

herinfernallady

Ok if that is the way they think then they too should have all their nails pulled out and have vinegar pored on them

8:15 am

welki

*shrug* who am i to judge. i don't like it, but wouldn't fault another when they've tried other options

8:15 am

herinfernallady

My cats have their claws regularly trimmed. Saves me the cost of vet bill if they start on each other.

8:15 am

pugmama763

my unasked for 2 cents--I agree & yet not as utterly pointless as cropping & docking of dogs....THAT REALLY PISSES ME OFF !

8:15 am

herinfernallady

There is a thing called Soft Paws harmless claw covers

8:15 am

sprite

hi all, good afternoon

8:16 am

carleekat

i just cut my cats claws....

8:16 am

welki

hi sprite

8:17 am

sprite

hey welki :)

8:17 am

carleekat

hello there sprite

8:18 am

sprite

hi carlee :)

8:18 am

herinfernallady

HI Sprite. I do too. But the I have to wait to do Pandoras when she is just bathed

8:18 am

sprite

hi lady :)

8:19 am

herinfernallady

hOw you?

8:20 am

sprite

could be better but could be a lot worse. Glad to be back for babble :)

8:20 am

carleekat

i just plop mine on their backs on my lap and go too..only the poly gets ticked..the others lay there..purring...

8:21 am

herinfernallady

Pandora is mental

8:21 am

sprite

always cut my cat's nails too. Got them used to it from the beginning, never a problem.

8:21 am

herinfernallady

Awww Sprite

8:22 am

carleekat

boo ( the poly) doesnt like her extra toes being done...rather one of her extra toes being done and it always curls funny

8:22 am

welki

we used to use a dremel tool to file down the basset hound's nails :)

8:22 am

sprite

is probably extra sensitive. But important to cut.

8:22 am

sprite

wow welki

8:23 am

jmcnrick

*pokes carlee*

8:23 am

welki

hey jm

8:23 am

jmcnrick

why do you cut your cats claws? I never have

8:23 am

jmcnrick

hi all

8:24 am

herinfernallady

Hi JM. I have to they are inside cats. If they fight they can hurt each other. Not that they fight

8:25 am

jmcnrick

oh mine goes outside and inside -- her choice

8:25 am

herinfernallady

No road sense to many dogs here

8:25 am

welki

no outside cats allowed up here in calgary

8:26 am

jmcnrick

dogs on leashes here although there is a bully cat

8:26 am

jmcnrick

really? seems harsh to some cats not to let them outside

8:27 am

herinfernallady

That is what a cat run is for

8:27 am

jmcnrick

but then i think it is mean to most dogs to coop them up in a city

8:27 am

jmcnrick

what is a cat run? i am learning so much today!

8:28 am

welki

the stray/feral population was so great, so many cats euthanized, that the city enacted a bylaw prohibiting at large cats. now, calgary has the lowest euth. rate for dogs/cats in north america

8:28 am

herinfernallady

It is an outside play ground for cats. Think chicken coup

8:28 am

jmcnrick

o i would think requiring pets to be fixed would have done that

8:28 am

sprite

hi jmc, our cats went outside too, we had a cat door back then. But still their claws grew awfully sharp, too sharp to stand the pawing they sometimes did.

8:29 am

jmcnrick

i blow in her face if she claws me

8:29 am

jmcnrick

must have a top to it since cats are prodigious climbers

8:29 am

sprite

oh that is an idea, jmc

8:30 am

welki

people just didn't do it, jm. now, we have a free spay/neuter clinic for low income folks .. and still the shelters are over capacity

8:30 am

jmcnrick

what i hate are my guests letting her claw or nip them and when say smack her or blow in her face they all say- oh it didn't really hirt :-(

8:30 am

herinfernallady

Yep. Think Kennel for kitties. Mine go out on leashes

8:30 am

sprite

new law: if they don't neuter their dog/cat,. they will be neutered themselves.

8:31 am

welki

**SPRITE FOR MAYOR**

8:31 am

jmcnrick

well i am glad then if calgary found a way to deal with feral animals -- we really don't have them much in DC

8:31 am

sprite

:D

8:31 am

sprite

any hamburger factories nearby, jmc?

8:31 am

jmcnrick

but I know we have some -- although we have wild bunnies and foxes too in DC

8:32 am

herinfernallady

I think so too. I know that the RSPCA on Sat had free adoption for over 4mths cats

8:32 am

jmcnrick

hamburger factories *clutches cat to make sure of sprites intentions*

8:33 am

carleekat

i used a water gun to train my cats not to claw

8:33 am

jmcnrick

my cats have always found me

8:34 am

herinfernallady

Speaking of feral did you read the news about a man whose dog (little yappy thing) chased a mountain lion up a tree then destroyed the cat

8:34 am

sprite

'Sure, ofcourse I am willing to feed your cats. Just tell me to whom."

8:34 am

ChampFit

Halfway, although so going. Love the water for training. Use a spray bottle to keep my dog from jumping on peeps.

8:34 am

sprite

really? Wow, some yapper

8:34 am

jmcnrick

WHAT!?!?!

8:35 am

sprite

hi CF, we used a rolled-up paper. Not to hit them with, just hitting on something. The noise was enough.

8:35 am

herinfernallady

Yep

8:35 am

jmcnrick

wtg champ

8:35 am

ChampFit

The spray bottle annoys the crud out of them although I can't figure out why. Whatever works!

8:35 am

herinfernallady

Arsehole is the general thought.

8:36 am

herinfernallady

HI Champ

8:36 am

jmcnrick

sprite i am sure i do not understand *frightened look*

8:36 am

herinfernallady

My Cat loves water

8:36 am

sprite

*evil grin* Don't worry, jmc, your animals are safe.

8:37 am

jmcnrick

whew! *cats runs away from released clutch*

8:37 am

ChampFit

Sprite, that WAS funny, mainly because I'm sure you wouldn't do such a thing!

8:37 am

sprite

you know me, right... big mouth, small heart. I just love bad jokes.

8:38 am

jmcnrick

lol

8:38 am

ChampFit

Will totally steal it next time the subject arises...

I meant the thought that someone could shoot a trapped mountain lion is mean

8:38 am

sprite

nope, never. I don't even beat my kids. Though some days I find it hard to remember why on earth not.

8:38 am

jmcnrick

hmmm what would you have him do herin

8:38 am

ChampFit

Don't we all!

8:39 am

herinfernallady

8:39 am

herinfernallady

8:39 am

jmcnrick

8:40 am

welki

people, pets and livestock are killed every year here by mountain lions .. they're very brazen, even come right into the city limits

8:40 am

sprite

not sure what I would do... kind of scary, a trapped mountain lion.

8:40 am

jmcnrick

if it were in the city i would not do that herin

8:40 am

welki

oh herin, you'd never outrun a mountain lion if he's got his sight on you

8:40 am

jmcnrick

but i probably would call animal control

8:41 am

herinfernallady

The damn thing was up a freegin tree

8:41 am

jmcnrick

he was probably sick if he let a small dog tree him

8:41 am

welki

i think you're right, jm

8:41 am

sprite

8:59 am

herinfernallady

8:59 am

sprite

yep... fully manually

8:59 am

crosshair

i still have one of those old metal perkulators with the metal basket and the glass top...great thing for on top of a wood stove or camp fire

Scrabbler

Eye problem x 10days + retina specialist told me no exercise for at least 1 month and no up-close reading either (eyes must move with my head).

9:01 am

jmcnrick

don't like french press as it uses too much coffee

9:01 am

sprite

it is not really a fun grid, Scrabs. Good at the start. But it has at least 40 words less than Babble claims.

9:01 am

jmcnrick

how many days left?

9:01 am

herinfernallady

O sprite

9:06 am

herinfernallady

Something I keep seeing out the corner of my eye giving me the irritates

9:07 am

9:08 am

jmcnrick

ty welki

9:08 am

jmcnrick

*cat

9:08 am

sprite

wow, that is special

9:08 am

herinfernallady

Wordi I think it is more like a remnant of my cat. Like an um essence.

9:08 am

wordle123

ohh i have two cats, so if there was a ghost cat i wouldnt be able to tell the difference.

9:09 am

herinfernallady

You have to believe they are real when both you and the house mate say at the same time ''Did you see the black cat walk across the window''' when there is no kitty there and the window ledge has bottles on it

9:10 am

sprite

yep... or when your own dog starts chasing it... or playing with it... as mine does

9:10 am

wordle123

wow.. thats crazy.

9:10 am

jmcnrick

the first time i saw it i was a child and the last time i was in my early forties

9:11 am

wordle123

do you see it ery frequently?

9:11 am

jmcnrick

never did understand it

9:11 am

wordle123

very**

9:11 am

herinfernallady

O and the bed would purr and feel heavy in a spot

9:11 am

sprite

there is more between heaven and earth...

9:11 am

jmcnrick

no just once in a blue moon

9:11 am

herinfernallady

Our old house was old.

9:11 am

wordle123

thats very interesting.

9:12 am

jmcnrick

but then i had some one give me gifts anonymously for about 20 years too so I have given up trying to understand anything

9:12 am

herinfernallady

O Jm that sounds interesting

9:12 am

jmcnrick

went to my bedroom one night and found a beautiful feather fan (which I still have)

9:13 am

sprite

I had once something growling at me when I entered the bedroom in the dark... we didn't have animals then. There was nothing in the room that we could see. But we both heard it. Now that was scary.
My deceased cat playing with my dog isn't scary to me.

9:13 am

sprite

oh wow jmc! Wonderful!

9:13 am

wordle123

well i would say ur are all very lucky to be experiencing these crazy things.

9:14 am

jmcnrick

it frightened me actually because i didn't know who had been in my bedroom (i was single then and living with a friend)

9:14 am

herinfernallady

I lived in an Old hospital nothing really freaks me out these days

9:14 am

sprite

but I have never seen an alien or a UFO :)

9:14 am

herinfernallady

Are the gifts random?

9:15 am

jmcnrick

but over the years i would get unmarked packages in the mail with a dress or scarf and I would ask people and no one would admit to having sent it to me

9:15 am

sprite

kind of scary, jmc, but benign, I think

9:15 am

jmcnrick

yse -- not on my birthday or anything

9:15 am

herinfernallady

random

9:15 am

wordle123

agreed.

9:15 am

jmcnrick

well it has been going on since hmmm 1980 so whatever it is it is not likely to be harmful i guess

9:16 am

wordle123

ya if it was it probably would of done something by now.

9:16 am

jmcnrick

and not really frequent

9:16 am

sprite

nope, nor intended to collect upon... must be a very patient and unselfish giver

9:16 am

jmcnrick

Red and I are polar opposites. It's 61 here and I'm thinking of switching to shorts.

Shorts are appropriate for 61. I think when it drops here it does it from 85 to 64 in a matter of hours. but I know I am just a wimp.

11:27 am

crosshair

i do not like them sam i am...

11:27 am

Aloyisius

or vice versa... hi all... ah, PAV.. that must be why.. either the ham or bacon would have set it right

11:27 am

crosshair

bacon!

11:28 am

PAV3

ham = pork=bacon...which crossy loves! and makes the world go round...

11:28 am

Aloyisius

it is just out of balance

11:28 am

PAV3

what a great morning this is becoming!

11:29 am

varumba

lmao @ that website crossy

11:31 am

Lilecama

57, 70??? what's that is C?

11:31 am

PAV3

11:32 am

Pinikula

18-21C, Lilecama

11:32 am

PAV3

not metric...and I'm sadly not metrical...couldnt tell you the C

11:34 am

PAV3

11:35 am

Pinikula

11:35 am

Lilecama

best thing to do! wrapped in blankets and quilts and socks :)

11:36 am

PAV3

I'd like to thnk of meself as a cute-ish cuddly bear!

11:36 am

Lilecama

do others agree with you? ;)

11:36 am

PAV3

altough, when squirrels gather nuts, they do tend to stuff their cheeks..I resemble that remark!

11:37 am

Aloyisius

sigh, a perfectly nice "ium" ending, going to waste

11:37 am

Lilecama

sheesh! this ca7 word is a bit macabre...

11:37 am

Pinikula

my sincere apologies, pav..didn't mean to raise your sensitivities *smile*

11:38 am

varumba

this grid is a lot easier than the past dew days'!

11:38 am

Lilecama

take out the 'lot' and i'd agree with you Varumba

11:38 am

PAV3

Pini...did you say something bad?...if we can't laugh at ourselves, we surely can't be laughing with others

11:38 am

varumba

its'just that i really struggled for the past 3-4 grids...

11:39 am

Pinikula

(thus the *smile* at the end, pav)...just joshin' right along with ya!!! :)

11:39 am

varumba

have had to ask for a lot of clues! but not today.... although i did pick up the ones that were in the chog along ;)

11:39 am

Nancy Boy

quick question: Fight Club or Titanic?

11:39 am

Pinikula

Titanic

11:39 am

Pinikula

(NB)

11:39 am

PAV3

Fight Club

11:39 am

varumba

11:39 am

Aloyisius

Titanic ..

11:40 am

hurshy

ugh, never never titanic

11:40 am

PAV3

well if you want skin, Fight Club, if you want romance, Titanic

11:40 am

Pinikula

well broken down, pav ;)

11:40 am

Lilecama

I'm off to watch Merlin

11:40 am

Nancy Boy

*le gasp at Lilecama saying NEITHER!*

11:41 am

Pinikula

I should find some breakfast

11:41 am

PAV3

I'd go with lile...though, since Hulu posted season two of Merlin!

11:41 am

Pinikula

(before lunch time arrives)

11:41 am

cybernan

good morning/afternoon, everyone :)

11:41 am

Pinikula

11:41 am

PAV3

11:41 am

Lilecama

11:41 am

Lilecama

11:42 am

hurshy

11:42 am

varumba

11:42 am

Pinikula

11:42 am

Aloyisius

have never seen Fight Club..

11:42 am

PAV3

bring back extra Pini!

11:42 am

Lilecama

I so agree hursh. You just don't get men like that in real life... it's SO frustrating.

11:43 am

varumba

TA DA!!

11:43 am

hurshy

you could compromise by watching mr & mrs smith, that has fighting, sex, AND romance, PLUS comedy.

11:43 am

Lilecama

yay varumba!

11:43 am

Aloyisius

ttfn Babblers.. must go - fireworks lead the way, yay

11:43 am

hurshy

really, it's the perfect movie.

11:43 am

PAV3

fight club...norton sees Pitt naked...wants to be like him...Pitt convinces norton to be like him...both lose...

11:43 am

varumba

ty :)

11:44 am

Aloyisius

congrats, varumba!

11:44 am

varumba

so, for those who are interested, fa8 - somethign that resemble flour

11:44 am

Nancy Boy

LOL Pav, that is NOT true!

11:44 am

PAV3

good seque hurshy

11:44 am

Lilecama

when you sniff it varumba?

11:44 am

Nancy Boy

Fight Club is a pretty smart film. Very witty, too, in a dark kind of way...

11:44 am

PAV3

NB do4 anyone win at fighting?

11:45 am

varumba

nope, it says yielding farina..... which is flour really....

11:45 am

varumba

it's an adjective

11:45 am

varumba

so if oyu have some fine powder looking like flour, you could say: oh yes, it's a bit fa*!

11:45 am

Lilecama

oh wow! the words they think up!

11:45 am

Nancy Boy

Brad Pitt wins everything when he gets those abs out ;)

11:45 am

varumba

oh yes....

11:45 am

varumba

any1 wants a clue?

11:46 am

varumba

lol NB

11:46 am

varumba

can't disagree

11:47 am

PAV3

Snatch is better than FC, and Felon is grittier

11:48 am

PAV3

fighting and nakedness + Brad Pitt? Troy, hands down

11:48 am

Lilecama

I'm gonna stop. Enjoy whichever film you end up watching and bye all! thanks for the chat, it's been fun. (wave)

11:48 am

Nancy Boy

However, Titanic it is. Happy babbling, all, I'm gonna curl up with Frank and sob my way through this epic ;) later!

hurshy

you're welcome, glad you liked it :)

11:52 am

crosshair

this grid vexes me...

11:53 am

cybernan

why is that crossy?

11:53 am

PAV3

47 left here...should eat some oatmeal...

11:54 am

crosshair

because i am still missing words;/

11:54 am

cybernan

is the fa 8 some kind of spanish dance, or am I off track?

11:54 am

crosshair

ugh@ oatmeal...more of a punishment than a meal for me...maybe survival food if you are lost in the bush for 3 weeks lol

11:55 am

PAV3

i Liked the clue about diggin deep into your no4

11:55 am

cybernan

ty pav

11:56 am

PAV3

it keep the cholesteral down..or how however it's spelt

11:56 am

crosshair

mmm,colesterol eh?...one day i will have to get that measured..but till then,keep those eggs coming!

11:57 am

cybernan

love oatmeal -- porrige (if made properly and not all gooey), cookies, squares -- although I must admit that the butter in the cookies and squares sort of negates the cholesteral lowering properties in the oatmeal!

11:57 am

crosshair

if i do not get it measured,it does not exisit...lol

11:57 am

cybernan

get it done, crossy!!!!!

11:58 am

crosshair

crossy is bad..but loves his egss...

11:58 am

cybernan

you can have eggs -- omega 3 and limit to about 1/2 doz. per week

11:58 am

PAV3

butter, when used correctly, is better for you than the artificial stuff

11:59 am

crosshair

and besides they say that quitting eggs now would be like giving up smoking after you have lung cancer:/

11:59 am

cybernan

agreed pav

11:59 am

crosshair

6 a week??!..mmmm

12:00 pm

PAV3

I use butter for baking and cooking but not as a spread or main ingredient

12:00 pm

cybernan

I use butter for everything -- no marge in this house!

12:00 pm

crosshair

6 a week will only work if i can create a three day week:(

12:01 pm

crosshair

i use a nice olive oil for much of my cooking though;)

12:01 pm

cybernan

my only concession is to mix olive oil in with the butter if I'm frying mushrooms, onions or peppers.

12:02 pm

PAV3

and if one avoids fungus and odorous foods altogether, there isn't a problem!

12:02 pm

cybernan

I have 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast most mornigs, but then I also have a very low cholesteral profile

12:04 pm

PAV3

I've stumped meself at 42 left...will go do shopping or something and come back later...

12:04 pm

cybernan

or list -- that was my choice about then, pav

12:06 pm

Jillyjill

Morning all, laughed at chog....I SOOO wanted eggs this morning...but alas...none in fridge...

12:07 pm

12:14 pm

cybernan

12:14 pm

12:14 pm

crosshair

12:15 pm

pcal2

Hello all, I tried something new for me. I typed all my words into Lickety's clue boxes. Now I don't know how to transfer them to "My Word List". Can anyone help??

6:46 pm

Minveryork

Hello pcal2!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

6:47 pm

pcal2

Well, thought I was doing pretty good, but I'm stumped on how to do this thing!

6:47 pm

Minveryork

I do not think there is a way to transfer them over. I wish there was. I'd print out Lickety's list & retype the words into Babble. You can only transfer them if you're using Babble Expert which is only available for pro players I think. Sorry I can't help more than that.

6:47 pm

wht

Hi all, I am back to finish up.

6:48 pm

pcal2

Aargh! That wasn't such a good idea after all! Thx Min

6:48 pm

MPittore

try to cut and paste them from the clues by highlighting them and them paste into the clue list.

6:49 pm

MPittore

I think this works or else it was a dream I had ;o)

6:50 pm

MPittore

Use the copy instead of cut...

6:51 pm

wht

You can use the get all added words at the bottom of Lickety's page, but I think you might have to cut and paste them one at a time into the add word window.

6:52 pm

Minveryork

Hi wht! How are you doing? Welcome back to the grid

6:52 pm

Minveryork

I have a story of clues in my profile if you need it wht

6:52 pm

Pinikula

pcal2...I would suggest that you resize the grid page and lickety's list...set them side by side and retype your list. There is no way to bulk add from the list to the game without having Expert (reserved fro pro users).

6:53 pm

Pinikula

hi all ;) back for my last 22

6:53 pm

Pinikula

fortunately, this is not a 400+ grid so retyping shouldn't be too bad
