mrpresident

Lucky, I have plenty of witnesses

1:44 am

jillibus

oh dear, mrp -- so many lies told about you!

1:44 am

flosey

probably afraid you're going to beat him at his game?

1:45 am

mrpresident

jilli, the guy is a drunk and can't face his problems

1:45 am

mrpresident

I seems to attract d**kheads like that

1:45 am

jillibus

looks like it, mrp!

1:46 am

mrpresident

he will lose... I withdrew my report on him, but he couldn't do the same cause he had to intimidate me

1:46 am

mrpresident

i am a very strong personality, and some 'men' don't like it.

1:46 am

jillibus

Of course, a beautiful woman with a brain is often a target for d**kheads

1:47 am

jillibus

snap, mrp

1:47 am

flosey

from what we've seen in here, you don't appear to be one who can be intimidated

1:48 am

mrpresident

indeed flosey, but the more I block intimidation, the more they get aggressive

1:48 am

mrpresident

some 'men' are just bullies

1:48 am

jillibus

I really must head for bed -- bye all and ... *poof

1:48 am

mrpresident

6:09 am

car.eeyore

<----- guess who is a chaperone?

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Rain/cold air/snow don't have germs so don't worry about that. But you would have more fun without the rain. I wish I were coming along.

6:10 am

car.eeyore

That would make me happy toooooooo!!!!!! 2 of my favorite Moms are going so we should have fun. I just wish it wasn't raining.

6:11 am

Scrabbler

I have been to Cape Cod twice in the last 8 yrs (we stayed in Chatham) and love the area. There is so much to see, including the Plimouth Plantation.

6:12 am

We are Mayflower descendants of John Alden, so it is always fun for me to go!

6:12 am

Scrabbler

Never been to Boston.

6:12 am

Scrabbler

Wow! Cool to know family history.

6:13 am

car.eeyore

When we were young and our parents divorced, we donated our sheep to the plantation. They had short snouts and black faces. Now if you see sheep like that at the plantation, they are descendants of our sheep!

6:13 am

car.eeyore

We will be visiting the Mayflower II first and then going to the plantation. I grew up down in Plymouth Harbor and it is still one of my favorite places...but generally when the sun is out!

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Scrabbler

Wonderful, Car!

I was afraid of that

7:01 am

bichon

Good morning lynxxx

7:01 am

jmcnrick

hi lynxxx

7:01 am

rubyfoo

hello lynxxxx!

7:02 am

lynxxx

hi jmc

7:03 am

bichon

lynxxx, I have a story for you. My husband was on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire". One of his questions was about Hungry Jack in Austrailia. I don't think anyone, including him knew that it was what Burger King is called. We always associate that name with pancakes

7:03 am

lynxxx

hi Ruby, just saw you had a big problem with your girl...hope that that is the end of it all - how scary

7:03 am

jmcnrick

glad your hubby did so well bichon!

7:03 am

rubyfoo

and that is the "girl of my heart"

7:04 am

rubyfoo

Hungry Jack, I always thought it was pancakes!

7:04 am

jmcnrick

did he get it right?

7:04 am

lynxxx

I didn't know that either Bichon! good hamburgers - though haven't had one for about 20 years!

7:05 am

bichon

No, he had to jump that question.

7:05 am

jmcnrick

oh i haven't watched the show in years--you can skip a question?

7:07 am

bichon

they changed the format this year. You can skip two questions. They also randomize the money and the clues. You also get to ask the audience.

7:07 am

bichon

One of the questions he had to skip, the Hungry Jack, was worth $25,000

7:08 am

jmcnrick

you get to ask the audience more than once? what happened to phone a friend

7:08 am

jmcnrick

Wow that is a lot to skip!

7:08 am

bichon

You get to keep half of what you make if you walk away. You get $1,000 if you guess and are wrong

7:08 am

bichon

No, ask the audience is one lifeline + the other two skips

7:09 am

bichon

Time to eat breakfast. BL

7:09 am

jmcnrick

oh i always liked phone a friend because i have a friend who knows everything

7:09 am

jmcnrick

bye bichon

7:09 am

lynxxx

bye Bichon

7:09 am

rubyfoo

that's the right kind of friend!

7:10 am

jmcnrick

when we play trivial pursuit we all gang up against him and he still wins

7:10 am

lynxxx

so you need to go on jmc, win a bunch, and not bother about a job

7:11 am

jmcnrick

lol that would be something!

7:11 am

jmcnrick

i know less than i used to because i rely on my speed googling!

7:15 am

jmcnrick

ty mom

7:15 am

Mom

you're welcome Ruby. I just love that line in Wizard of Oz, only I think it is singular in the movie

7:15 am

lynxxx

pr8.45 are very attractive

7:15 am

Mom

you're welcome jmc

7:16 am

Uneaixoise

perfect clue, mom!!!!!!!!!!

7:16 am

lynxxx

st7/8 have very loud voices

7:16 am

Mom

((Une)), thank you. How are you doing?

7:17 am

jmcnrick

i need a remedial clue for the e inthe corner please

7:17 am

jmcnrick

hi une!

7:17 am

rubyfoo

ty for the st's

7:17 am

MollyL

en9 is a scientific term meaning units not available for work

7:17 am

rubyfoo

bonjour, une

7:17 am

Uneaixoise

hey, jmc :-)

7:17 am

rubyfoo

monkeys are looking for the pr

7:17 am

Uneaixoise

salut, ruby!

7:17 am

Mom

Hi Molly

7:17 am

Uneaixoise

Ruby, what do you think about the big scandal? Think he was set up??

7:18 am

Mom

ugh, hated science

7:18 am

MollyL

e + ***** is the kingdom, and the power and the glory...spell it different

7:18 am

rubyfoo

oooh, got the en9! yay

7:18 am

rubyfoo

I think he was set up. But everybody else is looking at his past pedadillos....

7:18 am

rubyfoo

naturally, husband and I don't agree

7:19 am

jmcnrick

ty molly

7:19 am

rubyfoo

it's hard to imagine him running down the hallway, naked, and chasing a chambermaid!

7:19 am

rubyfoo

pecadillos*

7:19 am

Uneaixoise

maybe I've seen too many conspiracy movies, but it seems like it would be fairly easy to set him up, esp. given his raunchy past . . .

7:20 am

Mom

Ruby, what a visual

7:20 am

jmcnrick

well if they set him up they went to a lot of trouble

7:20 am

Uneaixoise

a lot of trouble? Pay off the maid?

7:20 am

rubyfoo

but there is a lot at stake. Why would someone with that much money and clout do something hat stupid?

7:21 am

jmcnrick

i don't know--ask bill clinton

7:21 am

jmcnrick

it couldn't be just her word against his

7:21 am

lynxxx

who is 'they', ie why set him up?

7:21 am

Uneaixoise

yeah . . . rich, powerful men seem to believe they'll never get caught . . .

7:21 am

Uneaixoise

lynxxx, upcoming elections

7:22 am

rubyfoo

that's what my husband said, but I thin old Bill was silly in that department, but wasn't evil. I think Monica was a groupie who went after him, certainly not a victim

7:22 am

jmcnrick

monica was not the first or last

7:22 am

jmcnrick

help with the bottom E for nbt

7:22 am

rubyfoo

Sarkozy and the Socialists, had a lot to gain by bringing DSK down

7:23 am

Uneaixoise

powerful horndogs . . . and then there's Ahnold

7:23 am

jmcnrick

tiger woods

7:23 am

rubyfoo

but who really cares; he left us with money, not with a deficit.

7:23 am

jmcnrick

john edwards

7:23 am

Uneaixoise

indeed, ruby

7:23 am

rubyfoo

is Arnold a horndog? My impression was always that he had a tiny you-know-what from all the steroids!

7:24 am

Mom

a front door is an en 5/14 ti your house jmc

7:24 am

Mom

to*

7:24 am

MollyL

I don't get the very loud voices clue

7:24 am

jmcnrick

the list of men who can't keep their fly closed is endless

7:24 am

Uneaixoise

Arnold has been a horndog all his life . . .

7:24 am

jmcnrick

ty mom

7:24 am

Uneaixoise

gay AND straight

7:24 am

Mom

you're welcome jmc

7:25 am

rubyfoo

I didn't know that about Arnold. That is too funny as he's so unattractive. Bill, on the other hand.....

7:25 am

Uneaixoise

(referring to men who can't keep their flies closed)

7:25 am

jmcnrick

okay i am off to save the world *puts on cape*

7:25 am

rubyfoo

7:25 am

7:25 am

Mom

lots of luck finding one of those Une

7:26 am

rubyfoo

would you like my much-used husbnad? he'ls all yours if you want him!

7:28 am

Mom

Ruby, thanks but I have one already.

7:29 am

rubyfoo

I think mine has been badly used by his previous wives and his mother!

7:30 am

Mom

wives?

7:30 am

rubyfoo

3 before me!

7:30 am

Uneaixoise

wow

7:30 am

Mom

that is a shame that you have a life like that Ruby. It is no wonder you weigh so little

7:30 am

rubyfoo

am I stupid, or what?

7:31 am

Mom

wow indeed. You have been married a long time to him though, haven't you?

7:31 am

rubyfoo

but at least he gave me the house and I have my pups!

7:31 am

rubyfoo

14 years

7:31 am

Mom

nah, not stupid. I don't think he was this way when you married him or you would not have married him

7:31 am

rubyfoo

I have friends who refer to him as Bluebeard!

7:32 am

Uneaixoise

Barbe Bleue??

7:32 am

lynxxx

No Ruby - obviously the man had considerably attractive qualities - you must have just got him when they were starting to decline!

7:32 am

rubyfoo

you are right, but, unfortunately, people change as they age and he's now 85 (and I am much younger, lol)

7:32 am

rubyfoo

pitty

7:32 am

Mom

older men seem to get crouchity as they get older. My dad is 77 and sweetie's dad is in his 80's and as they have gotten older they have gotten that way

7:33 am

rubyfoo

ooh, that wasn't a word, soory, anyway

7:33 am

Mom

but those are the only two I know that old

7:33 am

lynxxx

My Dad did too ... and my husband seems to be heading that way

7:33 am

Mom

I thought you were saying pity, because of your husbands state

7:33 am

rubyfoo

uh oh.

7:34 am

rubyfoo

no, I was trying a new word, duh

7:34 am

Uneaixoise

BBL -- need a coffee refill *poof*

7:34 am

Mom

I think they get to feeling so bad with aches and pains and all and they just can't suck it up like us girls can

7:34 am

rubyfoo

I'll take a cup, une

7:34 am

Mom

bye bye Une

7:34 am

rubyfoo

that's true, mom, we are much tougher

7:35 am

Mom

the population would be non existent is men had to have the babies :-)

7:35 am

rubyfoo

absolutely, mom, they could never handle it

7:36 am

Mom

I agree Ruby

7:38 am

rubyfoo

Riverdance

Congrats, bichon!

7:53 am

Anniebrook

bichon, I saw you on TV...good for your hubby..it was exciting to watch..I was rooting for him

7:54 am

uusue2

yes, congratulations, and sorry I couldn't watch it! It must have been a real thrill!!!

7:55 am

bichon

It was a thrill, for all of us. I'm so happy with how well he did

7:55 am

uusue2

so I'm just curious, do they pay for you to go to NY or is that on your own?

7:55 am

Anniebrook

Yes, he did quite well....was he nervous up there? He looked calm and collected

7:57 am

bichon

Erhard is an even keeled kind of guy. If he can do a high ropes course and caving, he could do this.

7:57 am

Anniebrook

good for him

7:58 am

bichon

He's been on "Jeopardy" too.

7:58 am

Anniebrook

How did he do on Jeopardy?

7:58 am

BzznBea

Being on Jeopardy is on my bucket list.

7:59 am

bichon

That was about 15 years ago. He won one game, with a modest amount of money. But, on the second night, he came in second and got a trip for two to Hawaii!

7:59 am

uusue2

Wow! Good for him!!

8:00 am

Anniebrook

ditto, uusue

8:00 am

bichon

I'd be a lot more nervous for "Jeopardy". There they don't give you 4 choices for the answer. And, you have to ring in

8:00 am

Anniebrook

Yes, Jeopardy is very fast.

8:01 am

bichon

He's tried to get on "Wheel of Fortune", but they din't call him for an interview

8:05 am

10:10 am

She bought herself a pair on clearance that she couldn't get into; I'm now hemming them for me (but I don't like the dropped waistband) She couldn't return them because of being on clearance. I'll need to get some longer tops to be comfortable in those pants

10:49 am

10:50 am

MollyL

I'm glad your dog is feeling better Ruby.

10:56 am

bichon

what happened to your dog ruby

10:56 am

rubyfoo

no, no, my pup had a tumor in her ear

10:56 am

rubyfoo

I was going crazy with worry

10:56 am

superflippy

Oh no. Glad she's doing all right!

10:57 am

bichon

How awful. I guess she had it excised

10:57 am

sadie52

awww poor pup glad they were able to take care of her :)

10:57 am

rubyfoo

the vet said that she would bite when she came all the way out of anaesthesia, but I held her on my lap and the first thing she did was lick me

10:57 am

uusue2

oh, thank goodness, ruby, and I assume it was benign?

10:57 am

rubyfoo

she is a great dog!

10:57 am

bichon

they don't let you do that here. You have to stay out

10:58 am

uusue2

she sounds wonderful, ruby :-)

10:58 am

bichon

what kinds is she ruby, a Bichon?

10:58 am

rubyfoo

we didn't get a biopsy because vet said that chows get black tumors like this one and they are almost always benign.

10:58 am

bichon

A Chow, with a black tongue

10:58 am

rubyfoo

and she is 8 1/2 and I wouldn't put her through chemo anyway

10:59 am

rubyfoo

she is the best, my favorite of the 5 chows we've had over the years

11:00 am

bichon

I don't think I'd put any dog through chemo. My Muffin died at 1 of cancer. I just let him go

11:00 am

uusue2

ah, ok, good to know.

11:00 am

uusue2

and so sorry to hear about Muffin, bichon!

11:00 am

bichon

*12 sorry

11:00 am

rubyfoo

that is so sad, bichon

11:01 am

bichon

Muffin was my favorite. But, Marco, one of my new guys, is a lot like him. Velcro dogs

11:04 am

rubyfoo

I guess we all have favorites and even within the same breeds, and in our case, the samer family, each is totally different from the others

11:04 am

rubyfoo

same*

11:05 am

rubyfoo

our chows are too inbred but, at the same time, the inbred traits are what make them so sweet and beautiful

11:05 am

rubyfoo

what do you mean by velcro?

11:05 am

sadie52

they sure are beautiful dogs

11:06 am

bichon

ONe day we were at a party and I had Muffin and iscuit with me. There was a young girl there who not at all outgoing, mostly sat by herself and didn't talk. Muffin jumped in her lap and after a while she started talking to her.

11:06 am

bichon

Velcro means he is very affectionate and loves to e near you and petted.

11:07 am

bichon

Marco is a lot like that.

11:07 am

rubyfoo

dogs can be so intuitive. People frequently don't like chows because they can be somewhat aloof. Not ours, of course, lol

11:07 am

bichon

Lunch time! BBL

crosshair

In the early stage version of The Wizard of Oz, Dorothyâ€™s faithful companion Toto was replaced by a cow named Imogene.

12:17 pm

Glantarell

all the best cows are called Ermintrude so i can see that Imogene would not work too well

12:17 pm

Judi

Bet she had a tough time getting the cow into the bicycle basket. Silly Dorothy.

12:18 pm

crosshair

hence the change to a pocket dog i would imagine

12:18 pm

Glantarell

Ps are pesky as well as Es being evil

12:19 pm

"I'll get you my pr/27. And your little cow too!" Just doens't have the same sting to it.

12:30 pm

the kid managed to maintain a 2.0 average for the year but just barely (grrr). But he met with an advisor in engineering and now has a plan, which he is actually excited about.

12:31 pm

uusue2

She's taken an interest in him, too, and wants to meet with him over the summer to see how he is doing (yay!)

12:34 pm

MollyL

That's great Sue.

12:35 pm

uusue2

<--- wondering if I should tell the advisor that he is my son - she is new, I think, and doesn't know me but we have corresponded by email about other students

12:36 pm

MollyL

Might as well, she will find out eventually.

12:37 pm

uusue2

that's what I was thinking; just have to figure out how to do it without seeming weird.

MollyL

It's an sp6 that the lisp clue was given for.

1:14 pm

cybernan

when you tip a glass over the liquid sp**** -- now say it with a lisp

1:14 pm

MollyL

The milk you don't cry over, with a lisp.

1:15 pm

phaeton

1:15 pm

MollyL

The last at the beginning?????

1:16 pm

cybernan

there is also a ti 5 that is the same idea

1:39 pm

Krysten

just reading the chog...never heard of "spork" before. I get the concept but not ever heard it used.

1:40 pm

jmcnrick

do you have children krysten? very common in kiddie food boxes and such

1:41 pm

Krysten

oh, I know what they are and even seen them in salads and stuff but never actually saw them called that.

1:41 pm

MollyL

Spoon/fork combination.

1:41 pm

MollyL

Attention Ms. Car. Did you read that Lisa Edleston is leaving House?

2:14 pm

car.eeyore

Oh no!!!! Really?

2:14 pm

car.eeyore

Where did you read that? Did she and Hugh break up?

2:15 pm

MollyL

Yep. No Cuddy next season. That should be interesting. What? They are a couple in real life?

2:15 pm

car.eeyore

Yup!

2:15 pm

car.eeyore

Honestly, the dynamic between them is pretty well played out.

2:19 pm

Uneaixoise

very sad -- I've always liked her a lot . . .

2:19 pm

MollyL

Everything I've read about Hugh Laurie says he's married and not to her.

2:20 pm

Uneaixoise

married with children, yes

2:20 pm

car.eeyore

Really?!?!?! Those lovely tabloid mags find pictures of him and Lisa on the beach and such all the time!

2:20 pm

Uneaixoise

apparently next season's the last and she's been getting great offers .. .

2:21 pm

MollyL

Most of what you read about him says he's been married for 20 years. And that's what he said in an interview I watched.

2:21 pm

Uneaixoise

he seems to have a wonderful family life . . . :-)

2:21 pm

Uneaixoise

off to return REdbox movies -- byee *poof*

2:22 pm

car.eeyore

Just googled it...mixed reports on all fronts. Not happily married. With Lisa / not with Lisa. Who knows!!!???

2:22 pm

MollyL

I wonder how they will write the last season with no Cuddy. Should be interesting.

2:22 pm

Kaplan the Magne

No sporks- obviously enable never had kids.

2:22 pm

MollyL

Hello Kap.

2:23 pm

Kaplan the Magne

grumble grumble. Hello.

2:24 pm

flosey

I had 4 Kap, what are sporks?

2:24 pm

Glantarell

cross between spoons ad forks - one handed garden cutlery

2:24 pm

car.eeyore

Oh good god! No! Jesse Spencer does NOT have a contract yet. I repeat, Jesse Spencer does not have a contract yet!!!!!

2:24 pm

Kaplan the Magne

spoon forks. Plastic.

2:24 pm

car.eeyore

Hello Kaplan!

2:25 pm

flosey

oh, lol, thanks

2:25 pm

MollyL

*Fans Car and puts a cool cloth on her head*

2:25 pm

Kaplan the Magne

cafetria utensils. Hellow car.

2:25 pm

car.eeyore

And the report also says that season 8 will mosst likely be the last one.

2:25 pm

Glantarell

not always plastic - i have some metal sporks

2:25 pm

car.eeyore

can't...see...lights...dim....

2:25 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Really? Who knew?

2:26 pm

flosey

interesting, I don't remember ever seeing (or hearing) the word

2:26 pm

MollyL

I think they had to pull teeth to get Laurie to agree to an 8th season. Just pray to God they don't kill House off at the end. That will piss me off.

2:26 pm

Krysten

that's what I said flosey

2:26 pm

Krysten

maybe not in Canada?

2:26 pm

car.eeyore

That would suck. He is such a great character.

2:27 pm

MollyL

Yes, he is. But always in a spiral of self destruction.

2:28 pm

Glantarell

an interesting character too - his flaws mean the show is always good

2:28 pm

Glantarell

if a bit formulaic

2:28 pm

MollyL

They must have metal sporks in the rich kid schools.

2:29 pm

car.eeyore

But to have him just disappear to take a leave of absence....then we could have the House Christmas Special....the House Easter Special....A Very House Halloween....Sunday mystery movie with House!

2:29 pm

Glantarell

i think sporks were developed for party food - use one hand and one implement to stab/scoop food whist standing

2:31 pm

Deeha

I cant take House seriously, we always see Hugh Lawrie as a comedian!!

2:31 pm

MollyL

Didn't we have A Very House Halloween in that horror movie dream sequence? I can foresee a Hallmark Special in which the team goes to visit House in the old folks home. : D

2:31 pm

car.eeyore

And a brilliant one at that Deeha!

2:31 pm

uusue2

hi again, all, stepped out for a while to do actual work (of a sort)

2:32 pm

car.eeyore

Hello Sue! You just caught me eating a slice of cold pizza.....

2:32 pm

MollyL

I have always wished that Stephen Fry would bring his Gordon Gordon character from Bones over to House. That would be awesome.

2:32 pm

uusue2

ooh, I love pizza! (regardless of temperature)

2:32 pm

car.eeyore

....thank God you are here!

2:33 pm

MollyL

Oh dear. Do those of you in the weight loss group tar and feather each other for things like that? : P

2:33 pm

car.eeyore

No...just talk each other off the ledge....

2:33 pm

uusue2

but I am going to heat up my sesame soba noodles instead...

2:34 pm

MollyL

Hmm...sesame noodles or pizza? Sesame noodles or pizza? PIZZA!!!!!

2:34 pm

uusue2

car! come down from there!!! :-)

2:34 pm

car.eeyore

See...I was walking around on that field trip all day....so now I am tired and want to munch. I will undo all of that walking...albeit it was stop and go.

2:35 pm

uusue2

oh, that's right, I forgot about the field trip! How did it go?

2:35 pm

car.eeyore

This is what happens...i get tired and crave carbs...my brain thinks I need the "energy" to keep going...

2:36 pm

sadie52

alright something isnt right here i am short an L and no clue what it is i checked licketys list and i have all that are on there?

2:36 pm

car.eeyore

Drizzled at the Mayflower, but no actual hard core rain. The sun tried to come out at Plimouth Plantation and it go so humid!!! UGH! However, we have a lovely band of rain heading our way in the next hour or so.

2:37 pm

uusue2

nothing wrong with carbs, imho, especially complex carbs BUT MOVE AWAY FROM THAT PIZZA!! :-)

2:37 pm

MollyL

I'll never forget how disappointed I was in Plymouth Rock. However, there is a good clam roll place near there.

2:37 pm

car.eeyore

The trip itself was a blast! The mom I was paired up with is very down to earth so we had a good time. The kids seemed to enjoy it and so did I!

2:37 pm

sadie52

ohhhhh pizza i will not give up lol

2:37 pm

car.eeyore

I did uusue. Wrapped up the other (larger) slice and put it away. The slice I had was small.

2:38 pm

MollyL

3 le's and 9 li's are 12 like the Tile says.

2:38 pm

uusue2

great, car! sounds like fun! always wanted to go to plimouth plantation with my latest ex (whose family was in Attleboro) but never got there.

2:38 pm

uusue2

Excellent, car! Moderation is good.

2:38 pm

car.eeyore

The rock is very disappointing to a lot of people, but I am not sure what exactly they are expecting. Its a rock.

2:38 pm

movieman

Hiya all

2:38 pm

uusue2

hi, movieman!

2:38 pm

MollyL

It's drawn like a cliff in history books.

2:39 pm

car.eeyore

My grandparents lived in Plymouth, so I was there all the time and used to it.

2:39 pm

car.eeyore

Well the stone is a lot smaller than it was. It was dropped by a crane after all!

2:39 pm

movieman

referring back to Hugh Laurie, has anyone heard is album?

2:39 pm

car.eeyore

uusue....I have a friend who helped build the power boosters for the shuttle!!!

2:39 pm

Kazzer99

i have heard bits from it - okay if you like jazz

2:39 pm

MollyL

And when you think of a ship "landing at Plymouth Rock" you don't think of an itsy bitsy thing like that.

2:40 pm

car.eeyore

Hello Movieman! I have not. It is good?

2:40 pm

MollyL

Hugh Laurie is an amazing musician.

2:40 pm

uusue2

so cool, car! I wanted to be an astronaut when I was little...

2:40 pm

movieman

It's pretty damn good actually, another string to his bow!!

2:40 pm

Kazzer99

methinks Molly has the hots for Hugh

2:40 pm

MollyL

If you like jazz? You mean there are people who don't like jazz? Inconceivable.

2:41 pm

car.eeyore

But they were in the Shallop, not the Mayflower when they reached the shore.

2:41 pm

Kazzer99

i CANNOT STAND IT

2:41 pm

MollyL

No Kazz, quite the contrary. I don't find him attractive at all. Talented, but not attractive.

2:41 pm

car.eeyore

I still do uusue!

2:42 pm

MollyL

Car, back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, and I was in grade school, the Mayflower, not a shallop, landed at Plymouth Rock.

2:42 pm

uusue2

well, I do too, car, but I am now way too old and decrepit (too nearsighted to be a mission specialist, and artificial knees and fused cervical vertebrae rule it out anyway)

2:43 pm

sadie52

ok fireworks

2:43 pm

uusue2

yay, sadie!!!

2:43 pm

car.eeyore

My vertigo would stop me from passing the test.

2:43 pm

car.eeyore

Well done Sadie!

2:43 pm

sadie52

ty :)

2:43 pm

car.eeyore

LOL Molly!

2:44 pm

uusue2

ah yes, vertigo would be a problem :-)

2:44 pm

car.eeyore

Especially for the spinny part!

2:44 pm

uusue2

ok, soba noodles are ready! Yum!

2:44 pm

uusue2

yes, that's the part that my neck wouldn't let me do, I suspect (the spinny part)

2:45 pm

sadie52

merry-go-round makes me dizzy i cannot do spinny

2:45 pm

car.eeyore

Enjoy them uusue!

2:45 pm

car.eeyore

Don't do well on that either.

2:45 pm

car.eeyore

I have to take non-drowsy Dramamine when I go to an amusement park!

2:45 pm

uusue2

I am ok on merry-go-rounds as they are not too fast, but don't like things that go in repetitive fast circles.

2:46 pm

uusue2

I do love roller coasters, though, but my orthopedic surgeon told me that once my hair turned gray that was a sign I should stay off them :-(

2:46 pm

sadie52

i do like trains water rides anyting not in circles and not way up in Gods world like rollercoasters...yea im alot of fun at an amusement park lol

2:47 pm

car.eeyore

LOVE roller coasters...but not so much the loopy ones.

2:47 pm

sadie52

I used to like them then I got old and decided it wouldnt be fun to fall off or something i dont know lol

2:50 pm

car.eeyore

OK...I am going to get the rest of my work done. Something tells me my head will be hitting the pillow early tonight!

2:50 pm

3:40 pm

HelenaB

3:43 pm

hurshy

nah, be proud. is good.

3:44 pm

HelenaB

also, seeing "i'm a genius" next to a picture of my kitty (who is lovely but NOT a genius) is amusing

3:44 pm

hurshy

well sure

3:44 pm

Kazzer99

wheee fireworks

3:45 pm

Kazzer99

helen is that your kitty?

3:46 pm

HelenaB

yeah, his name is Odie

3:46 pm

Kazzer99

right bbble friends i need some good advice on kitties - my sister has just acquired a little black kitty with evil green eyes called Princess - can you offer me some advice to pass onto her please

3:47 pm

HelenaB

evil eyes? haha

3:47 pm

Jeff7

kitty caption should read "I iz a genius"

3:47 pm

Kazzer99

this is going to sound rude but is he fat or sitting funny

3:47 pm

HelenaB

does she have a scratching post?

3:47 pm

HelenaB

hahaha! he's a little fluffy... big boned, you know?

3:47 pm

Kazzer99

3:47 pm

HelenaB

(also, he sits oddly with his back legs splayed)

3:48 pm

Kazzer99

i do indeed helen - him and i come from the same camp

3:48 pm

HelenaB

he's on a diet

3:49 pm

Kazzer99

snap

3:51 pm

lilliann

tell your sister not to let her rule her because my female young cat who is a rescue thought she was queen but soon found out i'm the boss, even tho she still tries to be!! lol

3:51 pm

Kazzer99

i think my sis will be too soft to be in charge of the little pussy

3:52 pm

lilliann

my male cat lies like that too helena and he iis also on a diet! i love it when he sleeps on his back with his front legs crossed and his back legs up in the air! :)

3:52 pm

HelenaB

i have to remind myself that I'm the person and Odie is the cat. Otherwise, he's too cute and I'd let him take over

3:52 pm

HelenaB

lilliann - odie sleeps on his back, too!

3:52 pm

lilliann

i call mine a witch kazz but her name is pepsi, she was named that when i got her

3:54 pm

lilliann

as soon as i move from my chair, whether it be the couch or wheelchair she is on it, looking at me going hahah!!!

3:55 pm

Nef

I have 55 words down, NBT need the 9 for NBS; but I swear there aren't that many words left here.

3:55 pm

lilliann

she will eat her food, well the jelly as that is the best bit to her and then go and bully jake to eat his and he lets her, so she thinks she rules but i don't let her get away with too much unless i'm feeling soppy! :)

3:56 pm

Kazzer99

hmm - i know cats like that - my sis's might be called Princess but she will be queen in no time at all. Also hubby made me laugh cos he has had cats and said often you wake up with a cat bottom on your nose and claws in delicate locations when kitty wants breakfast

3:56 pm

Kazzer99

nef - en 9 - many chaoses

3:57 pm

lilliann

lmao kazz....very true tho. mine just pat your face and try and get under the covers

3:58 pm

Kazzer99

4:00 pm

lilliann

4:08 pm

jmcnrick

4:08 pm

lilliann

4:08 pm

Kazzer99

no I thought that - good to visit - i did a couple of ou summer schools at the uni and loved the cathedral

4:08 pm

Mom

I didn't want to be bothered to cook but I thought I had better

4:10 pm

MollyL

What's a toasty Lilliann? And hi JMC.

4:10 pm

jmcnrick

cereal? post toasty?

4:10 pm

lilliann

you would thin as it was a city it would have more shops but i lived in dover for a few years and that is one of our major ports and that is crap for shops too! i've never been in the cathedral but have seen the outside, i'm shameful to say i've never seent he castle either, well not up close anyway!

4:11 pm

lilliann

it was bread buttered on the outside with cheese and mushroom in the inside and put inside a sandwich maker

4:11 pm

Kazzer99

we had gammon steaks and eggs - a toasty is a toasted sandwich or it is down here

4:12 pm

MollyL

I make that casserole Mom, but I substitute fresh carrots and broccoli for the frozen veggies. It's good.

4:12 pm

lilliann

the cheese melts ant the outside gets crispy

4:12 pm

Kazzer99

i love baked beans and fried egg toasties

4:12 pm

Mom

I don't put the frozen veggies in either, I put in peas just to please my sweetie

4:12 pm

jmcnrick

sounds tasty lill

4:12 pm

MollyL

Sounds good Lilliann. I would have to substitute something for the mushrooms, but otherwise, yum.

4:12 pm

lilliann

yopu can toast the bread in a grill and put the filling in and toast it too

4:13 pm

MollyL

"Peas To Please My Sweetie". Sounds like a country western song. : )

4:13 pm

Mom

lol

4:13 pm

lilliann

i usually have cheese, red onion and mushroom but couldn't be bothered to slice the onion....

4:13 pm

Kazzer99

you can put anything in a toasty - banana and choccy buttons is good - though i dont eat cooked banana anymore

4:13 pm

Mom

I would prefer no vegetables at all in it

4:13 pm

Michnick

It's 3 years this month since I started my chemo treatments for breast cancer.... all is well to this point, and that is one of my "happiness" triggers !!!

4:51 pm

lilliann

ahh lovely diane

4:51 pm

jmcnrick

yay diane!

4:52 pm

dianedecoder

I think so too :-)))

4:52 pm

uusue2

4:52 pm

lilliann

good for you diane :)

4:52 pm

Glantarell

hi diane - did my chemo for bc in 2005

4:53 pm

dianedecoder

It just depends on the type, and how early it was detected....hopefully there are as many good endings as sad ones !

4:53 pm

Glantarell

just fi ished my 'anti hormone' tablets

4:53 pm

dianedecoder

I hate those .... !!..... two more years on Tamoxifen !!

4:53 pm

uusue2

yay, glan!

4:53 pm

lilliann

my cousin is now 7/8 years clear of breast cancer and she was 31 when she got it

4:53 pm

jmcnrick

this seems a good time to put in a plug for folding at home

4:54 pm

dianedecoder

you are so correct jmc.... I've truly been thinking about it.

4:54 pm

Glantarell

mine was es+ and pr+ and a very big lump - plus 22 lymph nodes with cancer cells = mastectomy, chemo and radiation

4:54 pm

jmcnrick

you can help fight breast cancer with very little effort

4:54 pm

uusue2

I spent 5 years on tamoxifen myself as a preventative, as my sister died young of breast cancer and my mother also young of ovarian cancer; insurance wouldn't pay for $3000 genetic test so I just did (almost) everything I would have done if the test had come back positive

4:54 pm

jmcnrick

why do you hesitate diane?

4:55 pm

Glantarell

tamoxifen made me suicidal -p i changed to arimidex/anastrazole

4:55 pm

jmcnrick

yikes uu!

4:55 pm

uusue2

ugh, glan, I was on antidepressants anyway the whole time (for other reasons) so didn't have that problem.

4:55 pm

bichon

Sue, there is a strong history of breast and ovarian cancer on my father's side. I was tested for the BRCA gene mutation. Fortunately, I don't have it.

4:55 pm

dianedecoder

one reason... we were away a good part of the winter and shared a laptop.

4:55 pm

Glantarell

folding at home jmc/

4:56 pm

jmcnrick

double yikes glan

4:56 pm

uusue2

oh, that must be a relief, bichon!

4:56 pm

jmcnrick

you are folding at home glan?

4:56 pm

bichon

It's really weird, ecause my mother has survived breast cancer twice, once at 35.

4:56 pm

jmcnrick

ah but the folding at home doesn't use the part of the lap top you are using

4:56 pm

Glantarell

wodering what folding at home means?

4:56 pm

SeaSpray

You all make me thankful I went for mammogram screening today :)

4:56 pm

lilliann

my cousin had to have chemo, radiation and a single masectomy and was pregnant before she found out she had it so lost her baby, which is very sad but she has one healthy daughter which they rhink the hormones when sshe was pregnant bought it on and she is healthy at the moment so fingers crossed that is it for her as she is more like my sister

4:56 pm

uusue2

I figure I am old enough now that I would have gotten breast cancer already if I was going to get it because of BRCA

4:57 pm

my friemd has had BC twice in last 6 years - 2 different types

4:57 pm

uusue2

it's a little computer program that runs in the background and calculates protein folding, glan; understanding how proteins fold is one of the keys to understanding cancer

4:57 pm

jmcnrick

ah see my profile--it is a method of using the part of the computer you are not using to help explore proteins to learn enough to help find a cure for cancer among other things

4:57 pm

bichon

Probaly, Sue. Are you Ashkenazic Jewish? I am

4:57 pm

jmcnrick

crossy's profile got the details

4:58 pm

Glantarell

interesting sue - can yu send me more info by email? adigondda @ gmail.com

4:58 pm

uusue2

nope, Irish, English, and various other things (typical American mutt)

4:58 pm

lilliann

iwhat age is mammogram screening in the US?

4:58 pm

uusue2

also, bichon, remember that even if your mother has the gene you still only have a 50% chance of inheriting it

4:59 pm

Glantarell

i think it's 55 here but i was diagnosed at 49

4:59 pm

bichon

I started at 35 because of my mother's history. But, usually it's at 40 or even older.

4:59 pm

uusue2

typically 40, lilli, depending on risk factors

4:59 pm

SeaSpray

40 but I believe it should be earlier

4:59 pm

uusue2

my sister was diagnosed at 35; she was having regular mammograms even then but young breasts are dense and mammograms are less accurate then

4:59 pm

lilliann

i think it's 50 in england glant

5:00 pm

bichon

I have several cousins on my Dad's side who have had breast cancer and have tested positive. One had a double mastectomy and three have had their ovaries removed

5:00 pm

jmcnrick

i se** the info glan

5:00 pm

hurshy

they were debating it recently... too many false positives with early screening, esp if you have no family history.

5:00 pm

Glantarell

if your mother has the gene i think it is 25% because genetics is more about gramdpaernts and recessive/dominant genes

5:00 pm

lilliann

i think it should be earlier as i know so many women in their 20's and 30's who have either died or had to have masectomys

5:01 pm

bichon

My s.i.l. died of agressive breast cancer in her mid thirties. And she wasn't Jewish

5:01 pm

Glantarell

there is a lot of evidence thatbeating too much dairy may be a factor and drinking too much alcohol almost certainly is as it raises hormonal levels in women

5:01 pm

Glantarell

eating not beating!

5:02 pm

uusue2

would be nice to have a screening technique that didn't involve radiation - MRI is promising but expensive, thermograms are not particularly reliable, and ultrasound is ??? (maybe expensive and also limited sensitivity)

5:02 pm

jmcnrick

i fortunately haven't been beaten much ;-)

5:02 pm

lilliann

my cousin had her ovaries removed aswell bichon a couple of years after all teh treatment

5:02 pm

Glantarell

;-)

5:02 pm

uusue2

nor was my sister, bichon - it can strike anyone

5:02 pm

SeaSpray

I agree lillian, my daughters friend in college found out their 2nd day of school that she had to have a double mastectomy, however, 7 years later she was at my daughters wedding and is doing well

5:03 pm

uusue2

I had a complete hysterectomy in part because of the family history (would have saved my insurance a lot of money if they'd just paid for the genetic test)

5:03 pm

Glantarell

my 3 inch by 1.5 inch tumor wasn't picked up on the mammogram or ultrasound because it was high in the breast and close to the chest wall

5:03 pm

lilliann

my best friend's mam and nan had breast cancer and both had nasectomys but her gp wouldn't let her see a consultant, said dhe'd be ok

5:03 pm

Glantarell

the chemo kills your ovaries

5:04 pm

Glantarell

the only good thing about BC for me was going in, through and out of the menopause in 6 weeks due to chemo!

5:04 pm

lilliann

nice to hear spray

5:06 pm

jmcnrick

okay i think i am going to try to beat the thunderstorm home.

5:06 pm

jmcnrick

bbl

5:06 pm

bichon

Fortunately, I don't have dense breats, so a mastectectomy can see what's going on really wel

5:06 pm

SeaSpray

a friend of mine had no lumps, only a discharge and ended up having BC and a dbl mastectomy

5:07 pm

Glantarell

bichon - my breasts aren't dense and i clearly remember the untrasound man telling me there was nothing to worry about.... my tumour was in an unusualplace

5:08 pm

lilliann

i think thats the problem, 1, you have to be over 50 to get it, 2, only in certain places, 3, doesn't alweay7s show up and 4, if it's in your armpit and painful then it's a gland and 5, if your close family have had it they still won't screen you. it's very difficult for everyone involved, even doctors as they have guidlines, i suppose!

5:09 pm

periwinkle

Glan, how did you know you had bc if it did not show up on any tests?

5:09 pm

periwinkle

hello all

5:09 pm

SeaSpray

Hi peri

5:09 pm

lilliann

bye jmc

5:10 pm

lilliann

hi peri

5:10 pm

Glantarell

peri - io could feel a huge lump! and when i pressed it, it made other parts of my breast move

5:10 pm

periwinkle

ok

5:11 pm

Glantarell

i only found it because the weather was very hot and i couldn't sleep and i ended up on my back with my forearm over my chest - which is wheh i felt it

5:11 pm

Glantarell

i had always assumed (why?) that a lump would be somewhere on the lower side of a breast, maybe towards the armpti

5:11 pm

periwinkle

good that you did Glan. often the patient or sign ofther finds the lump rather than the doctor/tests

5:11 pm

lilliann

the problem i have glant, is that i had a hysterectomy at 35 and my breasts are more lumpy now than every month when a period wsa due, so i think i find something but then i'm nor sure as i have so many lumps anyway!

5:11 pm

Glantarell

i used tio check every time i showered

5:12 pm

Glantarell

i took myself to hospitallast year in a flat spin because i thought i'd found a new lump - which turned out to be my rib LOL

5:13 pm

lilliann

i thought i had a lump a few years ago, but it ended up being an unusual bump in one of my chest bones!

5:13 pm

lilliann

snap! lol

5:13 pm

periwinkle

better to be safe than sorry

5:13 pm

Glantarell

absolutely

5:14 pm

lilliann

good that it was treated tho glant and you are ok now :)

5:14 pm

Glantarell

i was 49 and starting to fret over reaching my 50th birthday - but when i reached it i was so glad to still be alive that it turned into a big celebration

5:15 pm

lilliann

so it should be glant

5:15 pm

lilliann

changing the subject, how is house selling going?

5:15 pm

Glantarell

no more viewings :-(

5:15 pm

Glantarell

slow

5:16 pm

lilliann

doid the woman that was coming back again put in an offer?

5:16 pm

lilliann

aww, obviously not, sorry to hear that

5:16 pm

Glantarell

but i am thinking of moving out because i have decided happiness is more important than money

5:16 pm

lilliann

*did

5:16 pm

Glantarell

no, they seemed interested but didn;t make an offer - they have a house to sell though

5:17 pm

lilliann

definitely glant

5:17 pm

lilliann

are there friends tou can go to

5:17 pm

periwinkle

monegy is sure nice to have Glant, but peace of mind is more important

5:17 pm

Glantarell

if i find a room in somebody else's house or share a property with somebody i can probably afford to move out

5:17 pm

periwinkle

money even :)

5:18 pm

lilliann

do you see him much in the house then? or is it just the thought of him being there?

5:18 pm

Glantarell

i have a friend who i stay with but i can't take my belongings

5:18 pm

periwinkle

I had to get rid of mos of my furniture whenI moved in with my sister :(

5:18 pm

lilliann

is there somewhere you can store them cheaply

5:19 pm

Glantarell

i keep to my room so see him as little as possible but yes, it is mostly the knowledge that he is there and still meeting other people for sex and not pulling his weight in the housework of=r dIY departments

5:19 pm

lilliann

or with staying with a friend you might still be able to store them i somewhere for a cheap price

5:19 pm

Glantarell

i can leave the belongings in the house and collect them when it sells

5:20 pm

Glantarell

i'd just like to take all my art and craft stuff

5:20 pm

lilliann

mmm, i see why you want to move out, i think i would too

5:20 pm

Glantarell

but can't take that to my friend's - it would be too much of an impositiomn - it;s a lot of stuff LOL

5:21 pm

lilliann

well, if you can leave most of your things there and take what you want i would move as soon as i could!

5:22 pm

Glantarell

i am getting there - it's just the controil freak in me thta has kept me there - i know the house will get increasingly untidy and dirty of i leave and that will make it harder to sell

5:22 pm

lilliann

ahh, like me with my jewelly and card things! i have a whole room here, but it might take up someone else house lol

5:22 pm

lilliann

i take it he will be getting a share?

5:23 pm

Glantarell

yes, i have a whole room too - kitchen units are full of beads, fabrics and card making stuff

5:23 pm

lilliann

*jewellery

5:23 pm

Glantarell

he will get half

5:23 pm

lilliann

we will have to meet up at some time and just craft glant! i can't paint tho! lol

5:24 pm

Glantarell

where do you live Lilli?

5:24 pm

lilliann

so, if you leave the house then it is in his best interest to keep the house clean and tidy to get the best price!

5:24 pm

lilliann

a few hours away glant1 durham

5:25 pm

lilliann

so,it will probably never happen!

5:25 pm

lilliann

my family lived in sebastapol but aren't here anymore

5:25 pm

Glantarell

logically that is so - but i have come to realise that he doesn;t really wnat to sell - maybe thta is subconscious - he says he wants tio sell and move on but he isn't backing thta up with any action

5:26 pm

Glantarell

durham - 7-8 hurs dirve fom cardiff?

5:26 pm

lilliann

LuvWordGames

no one could use my son's computer if they didn't know the letters by memory, he has 2 sets of letters on his keys because he was trying to learn an alternative keyboard that is supposed to be more efficient & stuck those letters on his keys too

6:39 pm

suefrad625

there are a lot of p's

6:39 pm

westford

I've heard of that. What's it called?

6:41 pm

6:41 pm

lilliann

6:41 pm

LuvWordGames

I think this was something he was interested in learning at one time but never followed thru & now just has the 2 sets of letters on his keyboard

6:41 pm

lilliann

lilliann

i'm glad i didn't upset you mpitt

6:46 pm

LuvWordGames

6:55 pm

MPittore

I haven't been on very much the past several months...so I am out of touch with status of all

6:56 pm

lilliann

6:57 pm

lilliann

i'll remember it in a minute...ahh transpant

6:58 pm

lilliann

*transplant

6:58 pm

lilliann

but sadly it didn't work and i think he had pneumonia aswell

7:00 pm

MPittore

OMG...how tragic...he was so young and in such terrible pain due to the rejection by his parents...I am so sad to hear this...I loved talking with him and trying to bring comfort to his life...so sad when people have to hide who they are because of others hatetred...we are all different in one way or another and if the world would practice love and tolerance it would be such a better place for everyone. I feel so sorry for his sister who seemed to understand him and even his mom a bit but his father was controlling them by his narrow mindedness.

7:02 pm

MPittore

lil don't worry I can understand you perfectly...and yes this game is great to improve our minds etc.

7:02 pm

MPittore

lil don't worry I can understand you perfectly...and yes this game is great to improve our minds etc.

7:04 pm

lilliann

it is very sad how poeple conceive others. when i was 17 i worked in a psychiatric hospital and cared for people who should never have been there, but their circumstances put them there

7:05 pm

MPittore

This is but yet another example of why we should live each day to the fullest and never go to bed mad at anyone...we never know which moment will be our last!

7:05 pm

lilliann

after that i cared for the elderly in rest homes and old sailors! they wete a laugh but the stories they told me about the war weren't!

7:06 pm

MollyL

Hi MPitt, I don't know all the details either, but I believe it was complications of malaria contracted in Korea that made his liver fail. They tried a partial transplant from his partner, but it failed. I really miss his loving, vibrant spirit.

7:06 pm

lilliann

and after that before i couldn't work i cared for people with special needs and severe behavourial problems!

7:07 pm

periwinkle

I miss Nancy Boy too.

7:07 pm

periwinkle

hello all

7:07 pm

lilliann

7:08 pm

MollyL

January, I believe.

7:09 pm

lilliann

god bless nancy boy! he's peobably watching us now teliing us what words are there and how easy it is!

7:09 pm

MPittore

Geez and the liver is an organ that can regenerate itself if my mind serves me right...I guess if it is not too damaged.

7:10 pm

7:44 pm

BzznBea

It seems the meds I am taking are supposed to make me lose weight and since I am not the meds are not working.

7:44 pm

uusue2

and they were making you sick to boot, right?

7:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have to have another mammogram...calcification. Sheesh. Throw that boob back on the shelf- hold still...relax.

7:44 pm

uusue2

so time for new meds, I presume.

7:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

What meds would help lose weight?

7:44 pm

oh, kap, sorry to hear that! Hope all is well!!!

7:45 pm

Yes, they were causing stomach "issues".

7:45 pm

mrpresident

morning all ;)

7:45 pm

BzznBea

Sorry to hear that, Kap. Bad enough the first time around.

7:45 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It's probably the normal process of calcification- I went through this last time- it's probably nothing, but if it's something, I'll deal.

7:45 pm

7:49 pm

mrpresident

Bea! that is really good though, lose it slowly

7:49 pm

MPittore

Kap....my moms philosophy (she's well endowed!) is that she wants to tell her doctor how about putting his "ahems" on the mammo machine and letting them squeeze those like they do her! She's the funniest 84 yr old I know!

Closest thing to a Man-o-gram I know about...diagnosed with testicular torsion, a man I once knew had to have his "jewels" taped to the insides of his thighs and his "weapon" taped to his stomach for a scan. Um...then they ripped off the tape.

My husband says his grandfather swearing in Welsh is one of the scariest things he's ever witnessed

8:44 pm

short generations helped with that in my case. :)

8:44 pm

m9f9l

WOW Seain!

8:44 pm

dcseain

oh, i've known some Czechs through the years that can swear up storm :)

8:44 pm

8:45 pm

suefrad625

8:46 pm

dcseain

oooh, Gomez is coming to town in July

8:46 pm

We had a Czech guy attending our church when we lived in the Seattle area... he could have been my brother.

8:46 pm

m9f9l

8:47 pm

dcseain

my mom's mom's dad was Czech.

8:47 pm

m9f9l

8:47 pm

m9f9l

My Dad's Dad was Czech. Allthough I think it was Bohemia at that time?

8:48 pm

dcseain

my great-grandpa emigrated from Bohemia Province of Austria-Hungary, so likely so, m9

8:50 pm

m9f9l

oh... what year?? Maybe they shipped over together!LOL

8:50 pm

dcseain

1925

8:51 pm

m9f9l

ah. nope.

8:51 pm

dcseain

like i said, short generations :)

8:51 pm

m9f9l

1903

8:51 pm

m9f9l

and then my dad was born in 1910

8:51 pm

dcseain

his parents married in 1899

8:52 pm

m9f9l

like I said.. long generations.LOL

8:52 pm

m9f9l

so my son Gage.. who is 5 has a grandfather (just not alive) born in 1910

8:53 pm

m9f9l

yeah.. in my Grandpa's naturalization papers.. he kept having to sign that he had no allegience to the Austrian Prince.

8:55 pm

dcseain

My nephews, aged 5 and 12, had their grandfather die last night. My father died 15 years ago, so they know him only as a headstone.

8:56 pm

m9f9l

awww.. I'm sorry!

8:56 pm

dcseain

i meant 25 years ago

8:56 pm

m9f9l

all of my kids never met my mom

8:57 pm

m9f9l

and my dad died when my oldest were 4 and 1

8:57 pm

dcseain

ty. The little one is taking it hard -- he and Pop-pop got on famously. Pop-pop had Alzheimers

8:58 pm

m9f9l

oh I bet!!! It was hard on my 5 year old to have his sister move away. and my kid's grandpa died just a few weeks ago.

8:58 pm

m9f9l

my kids' grandpa. He was grandpa to all of them.. not just one of my children. doh

8:59 pm

dcseain

oh, wow, that's a lot of change all at once :/

8:59 pm

m9f9l

yes. he's been a little emotional.

8:59 pm

m9f9l

he sorted out the sister thing to his satisfaction I think

9:00 pm

dcseain

yes, i can imagine from what i saw of my nephew today :/ That's good about the sister thing.

9:00 pm

m9f9l

He insists that she's not his sister or family anymore.. because she doesn't live in the same house.

9:00 pm

m9f9l

and that was really upsetting him. and he wouldn't accept that she could still be those things and not in the same house

9:01 pm

dcseain

heh. if that helps him cope, cool. I'm sure he'll come to change his mind later.

9:01 pm

m9f9l

But on Easter as we were walking through the park he all of a sudden perked up and said "I know! Aiden and Loren can be my FRIENDS."

9:01 pm

dcseain

:) as good siblings ought be

9:02 pm

m9f9l

yes.

9:03 pm

m9f9l

And she's been very good about calling him everyday. That's one of the reasons I had her take one of the cell phones.

9:03 pm

dcseain

nice :)

9:03 pm

dcseain

i bet that means a lot to hm

9:03 pm

dcseain

him

9:03 pm

m9f9l

oh yes.

9:03 pm

m9f9l

and he calls her too!

9:05 pm

dcseain

my cousin's husband has a brother 25 years younger than he is. His parents had empty nest, so had another.

9:05 pm

9:17 pm

crosshair

When Burger King decided to sell fast-food Down Under, they found that there was already a local carry-out restaurant called â€œBurger King.â€ As a result, if youâ€™re looking for a Whopper in Australia today, youâ€™ll have to go to a chain called â€œHungry Jackâ€™s.â€

9:17 pm

uusue2

yay, peri!!

9:17 pm

periwinkle

oh, ok

9:17 pm

gg peri!

9:18 pm

uusue2

surprised they didn't have enough pull to force the locals to change their name, crossy! that's how it would have worked here, I think...

9:18 pm

uusue2

bye, peri!

9:18 pm

dcseain

g'night peri

9:18 pm

i imagine the burger ling there predated the famous american food chain and they figured discretion was best

9:18 pm

king

9:19 pm

crosshair

otherwise you would be correct

9:20 pm

m9f9l

I got fed up with BK when they started an ad campaign for the kids meals that had girls with square butts and said "booty is booty"

9:20 pm

9:24 pm

dc, it was the first really spring-like day we've had after a dreary, cold, wet winter, March, April and half of May

9:24 pm

uusue2

hi, jilli, gorgeous garden!!

9:25 pm

m9f9l

all the numbing from this morning's dental work has worn off.. I am now feeling a little sore. Was hoping that wasn't gonna happen!

9:25 pm

crosshair

a very nice 'english" style garden jilli:))

9:25 pm

jillibus

Thanks, sue -- I love it -- it's a constantly changing joy I look at every day from my "office".

9:26 pm

jillibus

crossy, my garden helper is a lovely English import named Nicola.

9:26 pm

dcseain

oh, yes, a day like that is worth tiredness :)

9:27 pm

jillibus

sorry about your soreness, m9!

9:27 pm

m9f9l

hmmm.. outside the kitchen windows it's just all white with lilacs. front windows pink dogwood. but the windows I sit next to?... the neighbors new landscaping of river rock and lava rock. which in spite of what I think they were shooting for.. has a LOT of huge dandelions sproinking up

9:28 pm

jillibus

oh dear, m9 -- maybe it will be full of lovely rockery plants later

9:29 pm

m9f9l

no.. they already planted those bits I think. It's pretty sad actually.LOL At least they kept the pretty rose the last tenent put in

9:29 pm

dcseain

oh! i was at the Nat'l Gallery Sculpture garden yesterday, where i found the granite chairs i used to sit in in the East Building of the Gallery to read my Sunday papers back when.

9:29 pm

jillibus

where my driveway begins it's flanked now by two flowering cherry trees.

9:30 pm

crosshair

yes jilli i saw the influence in it,placing flowers and shrubs just so,so as to appear 'natural"

9:30 pm

dcseain

how lovely, jilli :)

9:30 pm

jillibus

In full bloom

9:30 pm

jmcnrick

Houston TX used to be the largest city in the world without a golden arch because there was a mcdonalds burger place which predated the golden arches version

9:30 pm

dcseain

nifty, jmc :) and not a bad thing, IMHO

9:30 pm

jillibus

Our island has no McDonalds or any other chain food store.

9:31 pm

crosshair

for the best jilli

9:31 pm

jmcnrick

the trademark law is fairly clear--if someone is already using a name in a geographical region the other company can't use it no matter how big and powerful--thus hungry jacks

9:31 pm

jmcnrick

mcd bought out the company in Houston in the early 80's

9:31 pm

jillibus

But we have lots of cafes and restaurants.

9:33 pm

uusue2

so how come amazon.com was able to force the pre-existing women's bookstore to change its name?

9:34 pm

jmcnrick

i don't know--it is very fact intensive law

9:34 pm

dcseain

jmc, was this the Houston chain? http://tinyurl.com/5r6jxkp

9:35 pm

jillibus

I wish that had been so here, jmc. When I moved here 15 years ago I joined Seniors for Seniors which had been going for years -- a strictly volunteer organisation. Then a big Toronto outfit announced that they were going to use the name and would sue if our little group held on to it. Of course the locals couldn't afford to fight, so the bully won. Accchh.

9:35 pm

dcseain

lack of chains hopefully means better food, jilli

9:37 pm

jillibus

Oh yes, dc -- no complaints. Lots of super chefs -- but not a lot of really quick and cheap lunches. But we live on the famous "Salt Spring Time" -- which can be annoying when you want to get something done.

9:37 pm

m9f9l

did my icon change?

9:38 pm

jmcnrick

could be dc

9:38 pm

jillibus

Yes, when I clicked on it, m9 -- I see a sunset and a branch, I think.

9:39 pm

uusue2

it did, m9!

9:39 pm

dcseain

i still see the bottle building

9:39 pm

jmcnrick

what often happens is that someone sues and the other group caves because they feel they can't afford the cost of litigation

9:39 pm

m9f9l

it's my window jilli

9:39 pm

jillibus

Exactly, jmc. Bullying. Nasty.

9:40 pm

m9f9l

there are little wood shelves built across it

9:40 pm

jillibus

ah, I see, m9 -- and there's a glass insulator on it, if I'm not mistaken.

9:41 pm

m9f9l

yes

9:41 pm

m9f9l

and a graduated beaker

9:42 pm

crosshair

crossy used to collect insulators

9:42 pm

jmcnrick

well jilli you can always choose to stand up to them

9:42 pm

herinfernallady

herin needs to collect the plot

9:43 pm

jillibus

I had a few back in Quebec -- couldn't bring them here -- downsizing in a big way.

My elder nephew admitted to me that he was having trouble understanding the metric system. I explained that it works like our money does, and equated prefixes to decimal, cent, and decade. I was befuddled that anyone could find it hard.

No this is because himself burried his little furiness into my legs and made me sleep all funny

10:39 pm

westford

oh no but you love him just the same

10:40 pm

herinfernallady

I do. He has done this all week. I have woken up with one leg on the edge of the bed and the other elsewhere. He loves sleeping on your feet. Which makes a great hot water bottle

10:41 pm

westford

I agree they make great foot warmers

10:41 pm

herinfernallady

And great company

10:44 pm

westford

10:44 pm

herinfernallady

Snort yeah right. She tolerates him

10:45 pm

westford

but she really loves him lol

10:45 pm

herinfernallady

I think so

10:46 pm

westford

Lucius is all black isn't he?

10:46 pm

herinfernallady

They work as a tag team for food

10:47 pm

westford

10:47 pm

herinfernallady

10:47 pm

westford

our new cat is all black too and she's Lucy

10:48 pm

westford

10:49 pm

westford

10:49 pm

westford

'where have you been?' why are you so late?' lol

10:52 pm

westford

it's pouring again

10:55 pm

jillibus

10:56 pm

westford

hi jilli

10:57 pm

Nef

hi jilli. Beautiful window view! And I like your gourds, west

10:58 pm

westford

thanks nef I'm ahead of myself

10:58 pm

westford

jilli that is a beautiful view

10:58 pm

herinfernallady

Sorry West My pc had to be rebooted

10:59 pm

westford

that's okay herin I knew you didn't just leave

11:00 pm

herinfernallady

NOpe I froze my pc.

11:00 pm

Nef

jilli; I know that you wish more peoplw would change their icon each day; but it isn't possible for me to do often; and there are many days I'm not here (because of work. So even if I don't participate in the daily icon thing; I do enjoy seeing yours and everyone else's too.

11:00 pm

herinfernallady

At least your cat doesn't try to make you sleep on the couch

11:01 pm

westford

lol herin mine are very sp6/21

11:02 pm

herinfernallady

It is sad when you have to go to bed at a resonable time otherwise the cats steal the bed

11:03 pm

westford

and complain when you move them just so slightly

11:03 pm

herinfernallady

O no you can't move them. Heaven forbid that would happen

11:04 pm

herinfernallady

No mine just move back to were they were and be damned if you are uncomfortable. I bet one of them is back in bed now

11:04 pm

jillibus

Nef, I understand! I' amazed that so many people who work full time are able to babble at all.

11:06 pm

jillibus

I'm lucky -- I have something lovely to look at out of every window in my little house.

11:06 pm

herinfernallady

I just sneak in babble

11:06 pm

westford

jilli I had a really nice view and write up and my picture was so darned big I finally gave up

11:07 pm

herinfernallady

I don't have a pic of my front yard

11:08 pm

herinfernallady

Not having a job means I can babble again

11:08 pm

westford

oh herin did you get laid off?

11:09 pm

herinfernallady

Yes and no. I didn't pass probation. Nothing I did. Just a case of hiring more than they were keeping.

11:09 pm

herinfernallady

I wish I could say it was because I did something dramatic but no

11:10 pm

westford

but now you have work experience in your field

11:10 pm

herinfernallady

I do. And cats that have had their attitude adjusted

11:11 pm

westford

I like your attitude !!

11:11 pm

herinfernallady

*stupid Babble ate a word I had already*

11:12 pm

herinfernallady

Well you can't be grumpy pants nothing would get done

11:13 pm

westford

that's for sure

11:13 pm

westford

have to feed the stray brb

11:15 pm

herinfernallady

who the heck thought up half of these words. These all seem newish to me

11:16 pm

westford

I'm back and I agree

11:16 pm

westford

down to 8 left

11:16 pm

herinfernallady

I have played for a while and these words seem to be real head scratchers.

11:17 pm

herinfernallady

O West do you have a new kitty? A stray? or is it one that you feed

11:17 pm

westford

just a feral cat that comes here every night for a handout

11:17 pm

herinfernallady

aww poor baby. Is it tame?

11:18 pm

westford

he's getting better but used to run away when he saw me

11:18 pm

westford

now he waits until I come out and then waits in the garage

11:19 pm

westford

I call him Foo..don't know why lol

11:19 pm

herinfernallady

That is good that he is getting friendlier.

11:19 pm

westford

he and our male used to fight but he's nicer now I've started feeding him

11:20 pm

herinfernallady

A friend of mine used to work at a place that had a big feral cat issue. There were lots of them. I told her that it would be kinder to trap them and give them to a shelter to humanly put to sleep than have them always breeding. AND I am a huge animal lover

11:20 pm

herinfernallady

A very old friend rescued an alley cat the same way you are doing West and he turned out to be a great indoors cat.

11:20 pm

westford

I agree herin where we used to live they would trap the ferals and spay and neuter them

11:21 pm

herinfernallady

But that doesn't stop the problem. That is only part of the solution. I am not saying destroy them all but some just can't be tamed

11:21 pm

joey

the 5 kittens that were born under my bush were born to a feral, kind of. She is going to get spayed on Friday. 4 of the kttens have been adopted, one left

11:21 pm

westford

hi joey how's Gracie doing?

11:22 pm

herinfernallady

Awww Joey what will happen to mumma kitty?

11:22 pm

joey

mama is the one getting spayed. Gracie is still outside, I am trying to figure out things. I don't know how to handle - if I bring Gracie in, mama is still living outside my door

11:23 pm

herinfernallady

But she can't just be spayed and let to roam

11:23 pm

westford

we once had a mother, father and son after awhile the mother wanted the son to go

11:23 pm

joey

why not?

11:24 pm

herinfernallady

Because she will still fight, still steal food, still possibly spread FAIDS

11:24 pm

joey

she doesn't have to steal food, she is fed well by me. she doesn't fight, and I am sorry, being a new cat owner I have no idea what FAIDS is?

11:25 pm

westford

they should vaccinate her when they spay her

11:25 pm

herinfernallady

FAIDS is Feline Aids.

11:25 pm

joey

west, that is definitely going to happen. she is going to get everything that she needs

11:25 pm

westford

she must prefer being outdoors

11:25 pm

herinfernallady

So she will just live in your yard outside?

11:25 pm

herinfernallady

kind of like a barn cat?

11:26 pm

joey

yes, she will be outside. yes she has been in the house and went outside voluntarily

11:26 pm

westford

joey you had some harsh weather this winter did she want to come in at all during it?

11:26 pm

joey

nope. she didn't want to

11:27 pm

herinfernallady

Has she got shelter?

11:27 pm

joey

during the hail storm the other week, the 5 kittens came in the house, mama left the area as soon as the kittens were inside. she has shelter on my front porch. food, water, gets petted, etc

11:28 pm

herinfernallady

awww. So she isn't complete feral. Poor love. Just makes me so sad that she doesn't want a human to care for her properly

11:28 pm

jillibus

west -- sorry -- I went to get the next icon (Roberto Capucci) -- missed your comment that your picture was too big. Did you try the site in my profile (scroll down)?

11:29 pm

jillibus

You guys are making me miss my dogs and cats even more... :-(

11:29 pm

joey

we think that folks down the street left her behind when they moved. she has been coming to my house, staying near for over 18 months

11:29 pm

westford

thanks jilli I knew you had posted it somewhere

11:29 pm

westford

I'll remember that now

11:29 pm

herinfernallady

So maybe one day she may come inside?

11:30 pm

herinfernallady

COuld you dog sit Jill?

11:30 pm

joey

doubt it - she has been outside for a long time.

11:30 pm

herinfernallady

so sad Joey

11:30 pm

westford

how does your house cat get along with the mom?

11:30 pm

joey

can someone help with the 2nd sp 5/12

11:30 pm

joey

I don't think it is sad. she seems to be happy and content. she trusts me completely, I can pick her up, she just doesn't want to say inside

11:31 pm

herinfernallady

It is sad that people just didn't care about her to start with

11:31 pm

joey

yes, I totally agree with that

11:32 pm

herinfernallady

Our black and white Cat Sox was a stray. He was a great cat. Someone left him when they moved.

11:32 pm

jillibus

I just posted quite a long bit which vanished.

11:32 pm

westford

we had a cat who disappeared right when we moved figured he just didn't want to go

11:32 pm

westford

hate that jilli

11:34 pm

jillibus

I said my neighbours have a cat I looked after one summer when they were away. She comes with them every time they come over here and feels very comfortable, but she's THEIR cat, not mine, and she lets me know it.

11:34 pm

westford

joey s and animal p***

11:34 pm

westford

it's fur

11:34 pm

westford

I remember when you took care of her jilli

11:34 pm

herinfernallady

Cats will do that Jill. We have a house sitter when we go away. I am sure the cats own them

11:35 pm

joey

i think that that is my 4th sp?

11:35 pm

jillibus

Well, my late Susiecat just showed up one day and adopted us for the next nearly 19 years.

11:35 pm

joey

3rd is longy talk

11:36 pm

joey

I got it. was going for pi instead of pe

11:36 pm

westford

11:36 pm

herinfernallady

Jill would you ever consider getting another pet? I don't mean this in a rude or inconsiderate manner either

11:37 pm

westford

I could use help with the se6/24 please

11:37 pm

stidmama

****late bday hugs for jill**** I am swamped with work. Just popped in tonight to say hello

11:37 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Stid

11:38 pm

westford

hi stid

11:38 pm

jillibus

There is also a beautiful neighbourhood cat, very friendly and affectionate. I'd love to let him in the hosue for a cuddle but I hear he has tapeworm so no thanks. Don't want that shed all over and infecting the neighbours' visiting feline.

11:38 pm

stidmama

why not treat the tapeworm?

11:39 pm

jillibus

hello stiddie. I look forward to the day when you're not swamped!

11:39 pm

jillibus

Stid -- the owner doesn't seem interesting in treatment.

11:39 pm

herinfernallady

eww Jill. I would so want to catch and cure the kitty

11:39 pm

jillibus

*interested

11:39 pm

stidmama

11:40 pm

stidmama

11:40 pm

jillibus

This person has 3 dogs who bark every time anyone on the street moves. The owner is not cooperative.

11:41 pm

herinfernallady

My neighbours dog who lives 3 doors down barks when anyone comes past. If I am out side I do yell out the dogs name and he most of the time stops

11:42 pm

markbowers7

spork isn't a word???

11:42 pm

jillibus

11:43 pm

herinfernallady
