1:24 am

jillibus

1:24 am

flosey

Goodnight and good luck with the cards.

1:32 am

joshuavorbis

hi and nbt

1:33 am

jillibus

hi and wtg josh -- not many here just now

1:34 am

joshuavorbis

how are you jilli

1:36 am

jillibus

I'm fine -- and you?

1:37 am

joshuavorbis

i am well. wondering why tiedye is not a word

1:37 am

jillibus

Actually I'm a bit tired -- did you know Babble was broken for quite a while today? Server trouble. I didn't realise it was back until 45 minutes after the flip -- was doing jigsaws online while I waited.

1:37 am

joshuavorbis

i had no idea. how long was it out, do you reckon

1:38 am

jillibus

Well, you know Enable...

1:38 am

jillibus

Several hours -- not sure how many.

1:38 am

joshuavorbis

was it an outage or server maintenance or does anyone have any idea

1:39 am

joshuavorbis

i certainly would understand if the server needs to be rebooted or upgraded now and again

1:40 am

jillibus

Dr God announced that he was having a battle with the server.

1:41 am

joshuavorbis

with the way people are pounding the server adding words at all hours of the day i'm surprised it doesn't happen more often

1:41 am

jillibus

poor thing

1:42 am

joshuavorbis

i would be curious to see a graph of the activity and server load and bandwidth at different times of the day

1:43 am

jillibus

maybe Dr G could tell you.

1:43 am

joshuavorbis

i am on late night on one of the most populous time zones and it's still pretty cracking

1:44 am

jillibus

cracking? In the Brit sense?

1:44 am

joshuavorbis

very busy

1:45 am

jillibus

the Brit sense (old-fashioned) is as in "having a cracking good time at the party, old chap."

1:46 am

joshuavorbis

yes, a cracking good time

1:46 am

jillibus

or "He played a cracking game of cricket"

1:46 am

joshuavorbis

simply smashing

1:46 am

jillibus

rather

1:46 am

joshuavorbis

i studied in london for awhile and have been back many times. i would love to live in england in an alternate life

1:47 am

o-o

Or is on the brink of insanity ... which may be a cracking good time too, I suppose.

1:47 am

jillibus

now that they have central heating and indoor water pipes

1:51 am

jillibus

18 left and eyes are slamming shut -- pillow time.

1:51 am

jillibus

Hello babrab!

1:52 am

jillibus

I see what you meant, lol

1:52 am

jillibus

but off I go -- goodnight all and sundry...*poof*

I'm 38 and have floofy grey bits on my temples and scattered through the top - started when I was in my mid-twenties, to my bemusement.

rubyfoo

did you know that your nose and ears keep growing even as the rest of your shrinks? That is a depressing fact......

6:02 am

EspritdJean

not sure they grow, the cartilage becomes lax and they drop, seeming longer

6:02 am

rubyfoo

I used to have a lovely grey/white streak, but then it fell out. Not LOL

6:02 am

City 17 dweller

speaking of things that drop... er, then again, perhaps not.

6:02 am

my sister used to send me "m bags" from the US; for about $11 she could send a dozen books. Then they stopped the deal

9:49 am

bichon

good morning from the Bay Area

9:50 am

Book Doctor Gwen

speaking of crosshairs, my grid looks like a cross, with the corner blocks filled in, and a white Latin cross left

howdy bichon

9:50 am

MollyL

de 6/21 means to hate

9:51 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yep, the US post office got secretly bought out during the George W. Pinhead admin, and they eliminated a lot of the cheap services. bastards!

9:51 am

rubyfoo

and pt!

9:51 am

Book Doctor Gwen

TY molly!

9:51 am

rubyfoo

is that what happened? She would ship the books in old canvas US Postal bags -- by ship

9:52 am

crosshair

what about those"if it fits,it ships " boxes i see on the u.s commercials

9:52 am

bichon

that is no more ruby. Lots of people, like those who send books to poor countries lost out

9:52 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yep, they completely eliminted shipping to foreign addresses by "surface" mail. now the cheapest option is First Class International. as i said, bastards!

9:52 am

uusue2

yeah, they don't mention the cost, crossy

9:53 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yeah, the standard boxes are for Priority Mail, which is sometimes a bit cheaper than first class intl

9:53 am

crosshair

here it costs about 6 dollars to ship a 3 dollar book:(

9:53 am

periwinkle

ty molly

9:53 am

rubyfoo

it costs more to ship a book than to buy it new

9:54 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i sell through 3 websites -- on amazon, i can actually set a book for "no intl" which I do on the large or heavy books.

9:54 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i just had a query from scotland for a small booklet, and it would have cost me $9 to ship it to them. they canceled and i don't blame 'em

9:55 am

bichon

When I sell on Ebay, I don't do international shipping

9:55 am

crosshair

lol@ the thought of sending and entire set of encyclopedias to auckland lol

9:55 am

uusue2

hence the appeal of e-books - no shipping!

9:56 am

Book Doctor Gwen

$13.95 is the flat rate fee for a book going priority intl, *if* it will fit in their standard 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 envelope

9:56 am

crosshair

lol gwen,scan it,i can reformat it into pdf,lit or e-pub and then you can sell it to them as an ebook!

9:56 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yup, and hi sue!

9:56 am

rubyfoo

when I was still working and living in the US, I bought my husband the whole Rutledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy

9:57 am

Book Doctor Gwen

get this: if i sell a book on amazon, and i can ship it for $13.95, i still only get $11.14 from amazon to ship it. thus i have to bump up my prices on amazon to cover that.

9:57 am

rubyfoo

do you think I could sell my husband on e-bay? I would throw in the shipping.....

9:57 am

Book Doctor Gwen

will he fit in the envelope????

9:58 am

rubyfoo

I could be like King Procrustus [sp?] and cut off the parts that stick out

I can understand the vowels, but the w and the center d?

10:50 am

the center D is a plural, bichon.

10:50 am

bichon

wait, I had a breakthrough, I got a center d

10:50 am

beachboggle

same here, bichon

10:50 am

Red have you ever seen a shuttle launch? Husband wants to go to the one in April

5:39 pm

redturtlehead

I missed out on one, so No I have never been in that town for one. The shuttle comes right over our town when it launches so I usually see it in the sky, but not the blast off part.

5:39 pm

redturtlehead

You should do it West!

5:40 pm

westford

he really wants to..wanted to be an astronaut when he was younger

5:40 pm

redturtlehead

Have you been to the Space Center before?

5:40 pm

westford

no we haven't

5:41 pm

westford

he put our names in for the drawing but we haven't heard

5:41 pm

redturtlehead

I found it to be really enjoyable. THe displays were fun and they have a "ride" called The space Shuttle Experience.

5:41 pm

westford

said he wants to feel the ground rumble

5:41 pm

westford

that sounds so neat..he'd love that

5:41 pm

redturtlehead

You will def feel the ground rumble. my friend lives over there and feels all the booms even when they land.

5:42 pm

redturtlehead

Plus, there are actually also many rockets being launched by private companies now from the space center.

5:42 pm

redturtlehead

AND, a wonderful wildlife preserve right there as well, for something different.

5:42 pm

westford

I never really thought about that

5:43 pm

westford

sounds like a plan even if we don't get to see the launch

5:43 pm

redturtlehead

One of my friends husbands is a "rocket scientist" and works for one of the private companies.

5:43 pm

westford

lots of motels in the area I imagine

5:45 pm

redturtlehead

Yes there are many.

5:45 pm

redturtlehead

You will get to See the launch...if you are anywhere in the area. It is HUGE. you dont have to be on the property.

5:46 pm

redturtlehead

this site gives the spots that create the best views.

5:46 pm

westford

thanks for the link

5:47 pm

westford

this is so great just what we need

5:48 pm

redturtlehead

The town you probably want is Cocoa beach or something in merritt Island.

5:48 pm

redturtlehead

Cape Canaveral is I think just the space center...

5:48 pm

westford

we'll be making plans now that's for sure

5:48 pm

westford

thank you so much

5:49 pm

westford

5:50 pm

westford

5:51 pm

westford

5:51 pm

redturtlehead

5:52 pm

westford

we thought about spending a day at Disney but I think it's school vacation

5:53 pm

He can never just go out and do his thing. He has to walk around and sniff every single square foot of lawn

8:47 pm

speller

8:48 pm

That's a good idea crosshair. Might do that next time

8:48 pm

8:53 pm

Minveryork

8:55 pm

Nef

Hi Everybody. Long day; 88 left. I won't finish tonight

11:00 pm

stidmama

hey Nef.

11:01 pm

Nef

hi stid; are you settling down after your big talk?

11:02 pm

Nef

DH's Aunt Jean (the one who broke both wrists last year) is in the hospital with heart failure tonight. I spent most of the day there;

11:04 pm

stidmama

yep. did almost NO work today. Played with 7th graders and spent the afternoon with Mother and the fellows. Felt good. Class tomorrow, concert tomorrow night, judging a state speech tournament Saturday... LOL will be glad to get back into student teaching so I can rest!

11:04 pm

stidmama

oh no NEF! I am so sorry (((hugs))) how is DH taking it?

11:06 pm

Nef

he's okay. Aunt Jean is upset because she doesn't want to be in the hospital and keeps saying "Why did this happen?" I keep telling her it's because she didn't tell me she was not feeling well last week(she didn't call me and she denied and problems

11:07 pm

stidmama

oh gee. stubborn old people! *exasperated mama look*

11:08 pm

Nef

I'd seen she was short of breath (also known as SOB) last week and she insisted she wasn't; that she was just doing some deep breathing exercises

11:09 pm

stidmama

ah. my grandmother was like that -- seemed incapable of admitting she was in any kind of distress.

11:09 pm

Nef

Yeah. And she is a real stubborn Irish-Swede.

11:09 pm

Nef

Yep. So did stidg inherit that gene too?

11:11 pm

Nef

Because if she did; you gotta tell her that it's a bigger bother racing to the hospital thinking she'd had a huge stroke instead of letting you know ahead of time

11:11 pm

stidmama

I hope not, Nef. I have talked with her a lot about how difficult it was to get good medical care for both her parents because they didn't talk honestly with their docs or anyone else.

11:12 pm

Nef

Let's hope she has some sense

11:12 pm

vanillaslice

help plz for ey8,55

11:12 pm

stidmama

My heart tells me Grandad had at least a few more years if he had only told the doc the cough medicine didn't fix the cough (cancer)

11:13 pm

stidmama

and that Granny might not have had such a bad stroke if she had told her doc (or anyone else other than her sister) about the TIAs she had been dealing with apparently for several years.

11:14 pm

Nef

oh, my! Sharing that info would have helped both of them

11:14 pm

stidmama

anyway... one can only do so much and then they have to let other people make their own decisions.

11:15 pm

Nef

hi vanilla, sorry, I don't have ey8 yet (but will look)

11:15 pm

vanillaslice

11:46 pm

jillibus

11:46 pm

11:47 pm

jillibus

I have letters from WW2 times when my imprisoned dad's Chinese colleagues were writing to my mother reporting that they had heard he was alive -- their English was impeccable -- better than most native English speakers nowadays.
