My poor Bear has no stuffing, lost his growl, has one ear and one leg, no eyes, , and a tirny paw mended with navy sock-wool. Of course he's almost hairless -- a sign of too much loving.

1:31 am

in a release today, the New Oxford American Dictionary defended Palin's use of the word. "From a strictly lexical interpretation of the different contexts in which Palin has used 'refudiate,' we have concluded that neither 'refute' nor 'repudiate' seems consistently precise, and that 'refudiate' more or less stands on its own, suggesting a general sense of 'reject,' " the New Oxford American Dictionary said in a press release.

Well, some parents can't spell, obviously
2:35 am
rubyfoo

combination of illiteracy, stupidity and too manymovies?
2:36 am
rubyfoo

it used to be, in France, they could only use saints' names which was much more dignified (except in Brittanty which is another matter)
2:36 am
rubyfoo

but now they use any ole thing -- mispellings, strange combinations, etc.
2:37 am
flosey

don't people of the catholic faith have to have a saint's name?
2:37 am
sprite

sorry, must be off, back later
2:37 am
jillibus

I don't think they all do, flosey
2:38 am
rubyfoo

they fudge it by adding proper names at the Christenings
2:39 am
flosey

ah, the french girls I lived with in Toronto did, and claimed that was the case, but perhaps it was more of a local ritual
2:39 am
jillibus

maybe it's a French thing.
2:39 am
flosey

oh yes, it was usually a second name
2:40 am
flosey

on of them had a sister by same name (they hadn't expected one to live)
2:40 am
rubyfoo

that is strange
2:41 am
flosey

Yes thanks zooz. At last seem to be coming to the end of this cold/cough/throat bug that is going round. Only thing keeping me awake at the moment is trying to set up a wireless network upstairs with homeplugs and an Airport Express! Last night I managed to lose the network completely, which wasn't the object of the exercise.

Bet you have a nice fire going now, ruby :-)
4:14 am

I always have them. Loads of them. They call it an associative mind. Here at home we call it crazy.
5:00 am

As for Babble's Law...if ti4 is not in the grid...fa4 and fa6 will be.

hehehe Molly, very true!
5:06 am

I do not know why, but i hate the taste of Pumpkin.
5:07 am
MollyL

In addition...if ti4 is not in the grid...te4 will be. Must reference the mammaries.
5:07 am
zoozzoom

i have tried, soup, pie but not muffin.
5:07 am
sprite

nothing as personal as taste, zooz. Usually, when you really cannot stand a certain food, it isn't good for you either.
5:08 am
carleekat

now..i have some frozen puff pastry and i have choc hazelnut spread...hmm..and seedless raspberry..i could conceivably make my own raspberry pain au chocolate
5:08 am
zoozzoom

never thought of it like that, Spritey.
5:08 am
MollyL

Zoom, the taste of pumpkin in muffins and cake is not as prominent.
5:08 am
Sally-catlover

I never understand the problem with ti4. They are birds too!
5:08 am
Sally-catlover

Also an engineering (?) term.
5:08 am
carleekat

my mum would make pumpkin loaf... chock full or fat raisins
5:08 am

not one of my babblets either, Sally
5:09 am

I think I prefer weirder vocalists, generally. I don't like it when a voice is too pretty - funny, really!

carlee, if the 7 letter words dont work, then read, always puts me back to sleep
8:31 am

it seems to be true that americans are more enamoured with the royals than the english...
8:40 am

NB!! : D I'm not a fan of the royals either.
8:40 am

we've read too many romances using the peerage for characters... we dont have to live with the class system of england

I just always find myself wondering what the royals would make of me, as a british subject. be horrified, probably :P

there..am finished
8:54 am
EvaNadine

*le sigh*
poor hubs has been waiting for almost a year now to find out if he has gotten his promotion. he thought it was all pushed through, but now hes just found out that the paperwork is still in the head-honchos office, and he doesnt even know if its been signed.
8:57 am
Judi

Geesh, Eva. That's ridiculously long. Maybe he should roll a grenade into the conference room to help quicken things.
8:58 am
carleekat

oh dear....porr mrfoster
8:58 am
carleekat

poor* even
8:58 am
carleekat

ok...i gotta go hagd all *poof*
9:00 am
EvaNadine

it had to get signed off by different people. each person just dragged their feet.
its now at the last level, but seriously, this process has been ridiculous. we thought things would have been settled months ago, and we actually thought we would be able to use some of that money toward the wedding...
9:01 am
MollyL

That sucks Eva. How disappointing for you two.
9:03 am
Judi

I swear, sometimes bosses just exist to bust balls .
9:03 am
EvaNadine

its the government, man. nothing moves quickly.
i knew it would be a long process, but i never imagined it would take THIS long.
9:04 am
Judi

Government. Well, that explains volumns.
9:04 am
EvaNadine

i just hope, for his sake, that at the end of this, they actually give him the promotion.
if they drag it out this long, then the head-honcho doesnt sign off on it, he seriously needs to find a new job. which is sad, because he actually likes his job...
9:04 am
MollyL

Try immigration sometime.
9:06 am
EvaNadine

ahh, its not like back in the day when my parents came over. their process was easy-peasy. :)
9:08 am
Judi

Are we talking state or Federal government, Eva?
9:08 am
MollyL

Over two years for my husband to get his green card. And WAY too many application fees.
9:13 am
EvaNadine

fed, of course. :)
9:21 am
MollyL

Gotta love the Feds. If there is a way to screw up/delay things, they know it and do it.
9:23 am
MollyL

an6/21???? What's that? When you throw your shirt on the table instead of poker chips?
9:28 am
Judi

I'm stuck on the te9. Any clues?
9:29 am
MollyL

There is no te9 Judi. One of those Lickety flukes.
9:29 am
Judi

Arrrrgh! I've wasted 20 minutes of my life looking for that stupid word!!!
9:33 am

Are there any other phantoms that I should know about?
9:33 am

<----- boo
9:34 am

* laughing at ruru*
9:34 am

there would be a te9...but Babble won't accept it (telnetted).
9:35 am
rururocks

of course.. telnetted how could I have missed that!!
9:37 am
Judi

Hrmph.
9:37 am
MollyL

I'm sure you use the word at least twice a day ruru.
9:38 am
MollyL

It would be helpful in "New Babble" if there was some kind of bulletin board where things like "te9 is not a valid clue" could be posted.
9:44 am
EvaNadine

hints for the right-column E?
9:44 am
Judi

Finito!!!
9:45 am
Judi

en7 & 8: show excitement for + past tense.
9:46 am
Judi

I suppose a better clue would be: is/was gung ho.
9:46 am
EvaNadine

TY judi
9:47 am
Judi

Primed, stoked, psyched.
9:47 am
EvaNadine

hows about that 9?
i hear it is indeed NOT a TE9.
9:48 am
Judi

There are also two et4's. Common babblets.
9:48 am
Judi

There is no Te9. I made that mistake earlier.
9:48 am
msideb01

I thought I had it with that one too... but one does not simply telnet into today's grid
9:49 am
EvaNadine

but what IS the 9?
9:49 am
MollyL

ey9...strange word...past tense of making small holes in fabric
9:49 am
Judi

However - if you type it into Lickety's List, it does accept it. Weird.
9:49 am
EvaNadine

TY molly. :)
9:49 am

there is room for much optimism in this case I think
11:39 am
Soodle

I think so too. Plus, they have escaped much of the glare of publicity.....til now....
11:39 am
EvaNadine

i DO love how they say she comes from a "middle-class" family even though her parents are now millionaires.

i mean, i get that they were middle class when they met + married, but at what point are you finally not middle class?
11:40 am
carleekat

new money and not part of the peerage Eva ='s middle class
11:40 am
Soodle

Neuveau Riche!!
11:40 am
MollyL

I'm not sure I would want to wear the engagement ring of my fiance's dead mother.
11:41 am
EvaNadine

i think thats nutso.
new money or old, once youve got that much of it, youre not middle class.
11:41 am
carleekat

not in britain
11:41 am
MollyL

I agree with Eva and peerage? Really? Didn't that go out with the middle ages.
11:41 am
EvaNadine

i always knew those brits were backwards. ;)
11:42 am

( my guess molly..he likely gave her a diff ring privately...and that one is for show)
11:42 am

not like he hasnt got the $$$
11:43 am

ok..i am going to go watch something other than bbcworld for a bit
11:43 am

it used to be that occupation and education (and manners) defined various class structures - at least in the U.S. now everyone wants to pretend to be "middle class"

At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to audit the books of a local hospital.
While the IRS agent was checking the books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, “I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there’s too little left to be of any use?”
“Good question,” noted the CFO. “We save them up and send them back to the bandage company and every now and then they send us a free box of bandages.”
“Oh,” replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer. But on he went, in his obnoxious way.
“What about all these plaster purchases? What do you do with what’s left over after setting a cast on a patient?”
“Ah, yes,” replied the CFO, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. “We save it and send it back to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free package of plaster.”
“I see,” replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all CFO. “Well,” he went on, “What do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?”
“Here, too, we do not waste,” answered the CFO. “What we do is save all the little foreskins and send them to the IRS Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick.”

Interesting -- watching the news -- the US TV seems more excited about our Royals than the Canadian TV
8:07 pm
jmcnrick

i think i need to take a break
8:07 pm
jmcnrick

bbl
8:09 pm
jillibus

jmc, if you're still here, make sure your current email address is correct on flickr. All my pix disappeared from here when I changed it. Finally twigged and notified them -- voila!
8:11 pm
kje

it is just that our TV loves to focus on anything but real news... so the royals provide a diversion
8:13 pm
jillibus

is Prince William's engagement not real news? Some day, he will be King William V of England, and Kate will be his Queen Consort.
8:14 pm
kje

it deserves 10 seconds
8:17 pm
stidmama

hello all!
8:17 pm
Bugsaw

Hey stid!
8:17 pm
stidmama

it's not real news to people in the United States Jill -- he will not be our monarch and to all intents and purposes the real political power is the prime minister always
8:18 pm
stidmama

hey bugs!
8:18 pm
stidmama

so... did the wind get you too jill?
8:19 pm
Bugsaw

I must tread carefully here, but I will say that I am not a monarchist.
8:19 pm
kje

she was commenting though that our news is giving more coverage than theirs
8:19 pm
Bugsaw

I like William because of his mother
8:19 pm
jillibus

Hi stid -- not really, although the power went out here for about an hour. However, at the time I was in Ganges playing bridge and it didn't go out there.
8:20 pm
stidmama

me too bugs -- and as a young man growing up as he has he (and his brother, finally) seem remarkably well-grounded and kind
8:20 pm
stidmama

I add that I rather like the young woman, as well -- she's not "just" a pretty face
8:21 pm
stidmama

hm. well, you know -- Canada is typically a step behind... *grins wickedly at jill and bugs*
8:21 pm
stidmama

unless I need clues, in which case Canada is usually light-years ahead!
8:22 pm
kje

wow, stid - gutsy comment there!
8:22 pm
jillibus

I've loved the royals, warts and all, all my life. They have been noble in the face of adversities of all kinds, including relentless spotlights and invasions of privacy.
8:22 pm
Bugsaw

good save stid!
8:22 pm
kje

I think I will sit over here on the side and watch the fur fly ; )
8:22 pm

*sitting on the sidelines with kje*
8:22 pm
stidmama

personally, I like the story the now-queen actually working with trucks and stuff during the war SHE has guts!
8:22 pm
jillibus

No fur flying from me.
8:22 pm
stidmama

hey welki! (((hugs)))
8:23 pm
Bugsaw

you might want to put on a helmet if Jilli gets on a roll. Royalists are firm believers.
8:23 pm
jillibus

Nope. All are entitled to opinions, horrendously wrong as they may be <wink>
8:24 pm
Bugsaw

I agree with all of you. The people who make up the royals are interesting but I do not see the point of being in the Commonwealth any more
8:24 pm
stidmama

not our jill -- she is a lovely person through-and-through and knows that we all have our blind spots.
8:24 pm
stidmama

hey red!
8:25 pm
stidmama

red, me luv... if the theme is FRUIT, then why are we all billowed out and running with the wind to catch the ey4 of pirates?
8:26 pm
redturtlehead

well stid...for one day my theme and words matched...
8:26 pm
Bugsaw

that is the best part of red's icons, stid. You have to make the connection yourself! It is fun
8:26 pm
stidmama

ah! LOL
8:26 pm
redturtlehead

i need to change it, been crazy busy...
8:27 pm

hmph. "tetley" doesn't count of course, being a proper noun
8:27 pm

8:28 pm
stidmama

I can completely understand. my icon is stidkid #1 of course, need to finish getting pics loaded so I have a pic of #2 also...
8:29 pm
stidmama

no, but get the L out of there and it does!
8:29 pm
stidmama

how went the bridge anyway jill?
8:32 pm
jillibus

the bridge didn't go well, stid.
8:32 pm
stidmama

sorry jill
8:33 pm
jillibus

My partner was in a cranky mood and complained all night long.
8:33 pm
Bugsaw

too bad you can't switch partners some days
8:34 pm
stidmama

oh de4
8:34 pm
jillibus

She is getting too old -- funny thing for me to say, but flosey knows.
8:34 pm
rururocks

nothing like a cranky partner.
8:34 pm
stidmama

ruru knows! *innocent mama look*
8:34 pm
jillibus

I can't let her down -- she's nobody's favourite.
8:34 pm
stidmama

jill, you are a saint
8:35 pm
jillibus

ruru, I'm sure you don't have one, lol!
8:35 pm
jillibus

far from it, stid!
8:36 pm
rururocks

oh.. she gets cranky all right
8:36 pm
jillibus

Let's say it's character-building ;-)
8:36 pm
rururocks

and I am always surprised because I am such perfect angel ..
8:37 pm
jillibus

oops, just saw a halo fly off
8:37 pm
stidmama

ruru's partner has LOTS of character then...
8:38 pm
stidmama

that was a toupee, not a halo!
8:38 pm
rururocks

don't need a toupee thank you stid..

GMann7,you get fireworks for the first two weeks of your trial period,then the fireworks and tile stats go away. You will then have to become pro to get them.
9:07 pm
kje

yay diane
9:07 pm
jillibus

GMann, you get fireworks for the first two weeks if non-pro. Then they disappear, and so do the Tile Stats and how many words there are. Pro is a bargain at about $15 one time only.
