I say, no sending people to the PB for go4. It's a nice word. : D

8:24 am

Judi

Mr. P - if you're still here... Round one is behind you and it sounds as if you prevailed over the Prick. Nice to know that he implicated himself in front of a Judge. Is Lickety in a better frame of mind today?

8:25 am

Judi

Observation: apparently you can have "oodles", but not one oodle.

8:29 am

MollyL

I would think the singular, oodle, should be allowed. You can collect them, and then they would be oodles. : D

8:32 am

Judi

Obviously, "oodle" is only a figurative noun.

8:33 am

Mr Bob

Morning folks

8:33 am

Judi

Hiya, Mr. Bob!

It must be lonely being a figurative noun.

Just popping in, had another look at the who's hot list and I've been on 1024 for the past three days. I was getting hot flushes but they're dying off. Isn't supposed to be one point up per day? ive completed every one bar one during the past month.

10:22 am

doseffing

... hot list is your average for the past 30 days ... if you have the one uncompleted in that time ... then every time you complete another ... an earlier one which you also completed drops out of the average ... ... keep going ... one day you drop the uncompleted one from the average ...

10:23 am

thx, I'll just have to keep on completing then.

rbud, I love your icon. When I clicked on it to see it up close, I also read your profile. What a delight you are! My beloved is also the library director for our small town library. Whereever we go, I hear, "Oh look, there's our librarian! And that's the librarian's wife." :)

Another rainy day here in the NE

1:18 pm

rbud

Awww, that's neat - some of the kids here are like that when they see me - mostly the homeschoolers, so much more polite than the rest of the kids. Love them, they check out soooo many books and "shush" each other. The rest only want to play games on the pc's and yell! :P

hi bichon - I just had to clear my gutters cause the water was pouring into the basement

1:18 pm

bichon

Where are you again Harry? We actually have had water in the basement this June. Very unusual and annoying.

1:19 pm

bichon

I forgot that you are here in CT

1:19 pm

HarryHood

new haven - we have old yankee gutters which clog with the slightest twig

1:19 pm

HarryHood

and our linden trees shed about 4 times per year - what a hassle

1:20 pm

bichon

We actually have fairly new gutters, but no gutter shields. With the amount of torrential rain we've had, the overflow. I'll have to get hubby to clear them out when he has time and isn't grumpy

1:20 pm

bichon

I have a linden tree too.

1:20 pm

HarryHood

*hate* linden trees

1:22 pm

bichon

There are other trees like locust which are annoying too. Then there are the maples which seeds and grow in the garden. Down with trees <ggg>

1:22 pm

HarryHood

norway maples are the worst!

1:22 pm

bichon

We got rid of a Norway Maple.

1:22 pm

HarryHood

gotta go disengage the kids - it's that awful time between school and camp, babysitter is gone, and my wife is overseas.

1:22 pm

wjb

I am not sure about gutter shields. We have just had new gutters and gutter shields but the debris just seems to be lying on the shields. Our neighbours have a lot of oak trees and they create a lot of mess.

1:22 pm

HarryHood

Nef

I need new trees in my yard after losing some mature ones this past year; not sure what a linden tree is, but will probably not get one now

1:23 pm

bichon

It's not any worse than other trees Nef. It's a nice shade tree

1:24 pm

Nef

it Looks nice: nice shape, etc.

1:25 pm

bichon

This grid is seriously annoying folks

1:29 pm

Nef

It's bigger than what we are looking for. We want enough sun so our gardens aren't in shade; I'm actually thinking some friut trees would work best: small enough that they but will provide some shade and will provide some food too

1:29 pm

Nef

The first 65 words weren't too bad, bichon; but it's definitely a pain now

1:29 pm

bichon

Fruit trees are tricky Nef. In order for them to produce good fruit, they need to be pruned properly and fertilized

1:30 pm

bichon

Top n and l are driving me crazy

1:31 pm

bichon

My backyard is very difficult to grow things in. Besides the Linden, the borders have trees which don't belong to us. We'd like to cut them down.

1:31 pm

rbud

I have 4 left now, after 2 hours of combing the back chog for clues, not so bad - except for these last 4, lol!

1:31 pm

top N is catus fruit no5

1:32 pm

rbud

oh, and top L = lo4, another word for the last word bichon said at 1:30, haha

1:32 pm

Nef

(I'm thinking of crab apple or sour cherries, bichon. In our climate there isn't a whole lot of fruit trees that tolerate the weather other than apples; and we won't be here more than a couple of years to harvest any apples. We've decided that we need to live closer to DH's Aunt here in the Cities now.

1:38 pm

I have a pine tree that really needs chopping.

1:38 pm

one pear (always sick), one aprico (died), one sanguine peach (lots of fruit, then it died

1:38 pm

our houses in our neighborhood are very close together, with a large center green. The people next door never do anything about all the maple trees which grow up near our house. Grrr. Love that weed trimmer

bichon, we are allowed to cut branches that are over our property line IF they are problems

1:41 pm

1:41 pm

rubyfoo

{{everybody}} got to see the last 3 episodes of desperate housewives (duh me)

1:42 pm

bichon

I can cut down the branches which grow over our property, but it's the shade that covers our gardens which bother me. Plus they have this forsythia bus which they never prune. We have to prune it

1:43 pm

bichon

ruby, hint for the po 6, please

1:44 pm

Nef

my forsythia bush pretty much stays the same size no matter what I do with it. I didn't know they need pruning! (It's about 6ft tall and 6-8 ft in diameter)

Hello Sue and Molly. hope all is well.

and my son is really listening to him which is great

Hi Red. Good to hear about the lawyer and your boy Sue. Maybe this is going in the right direction after all.

6:24 pm

stats for qu please

6:24 pm

redturtlehead

this is good news though.

6:24 pm

(It may turn out to be easier and cheaper to plead guilty to a lesser charge even though he is innocent rather than go to the expense and risk of a trial)

Disorderly conduct?

6:25 pm

but I printed out a list of all the texts she's sent him since Tuesday and the police agreed this was harassment and are calling her to tell her to cut it out

6:25 pm

redturtlehead

problems though with employment and such in the future? I am sure the lawyer has gone over it all...

6:25 pm

uusue2

dunno yet, molly, maybe simple battery (rather than domestic), with a fine and supervision and the whole thing being expunged at the end if he behaves himself (which should be no problem)

6:26 pm

redturtlehead

oh very good.

6:26 pm

uusue2

and red, if the record is really expunged there should be no permanent ramifications

6:27 pm

redturtlehead

How is your son holding up.

6:27 pm

uusue2

but right now it is very early in the process; we will just have to see how things develop

6:27 pm

uusue2

he is doing ok, has his ups and downs, but the meeting with the lawyer really helped

6:29 pm

uusue2

his father (who is a real moron) posted something really stupid on his facebook but he doesn't seem too down about that, fortunately

6:30 pm

MollyL

You're right Sue, you just have to take these situations as they develop.

6:30 pm

redturtlehead

glad his Dad is not getting to him.

6:31 pm

MollyL

I do hope he doesn't have to plead guilty to something he didn't do. Maybe when it all comes to light, there will be other options.

6:31 pm

uusue2

we'll see, molly; that would not be my preference either but it might be better than going to trial and losing

6:33 pm

MollyL

As long as you feel like he is in good hands (lawyer wise) I'm sure it will all work out. You must be worn down Sue. I hope you manage a good night's sleep.

6:33 pm

uusue2

I mean, it WOULD be better than going to trial and losing; going to trial and winning would be better, and having them drop the charges completely would be best of all but apparently that is highly unlikely

I did print out just a list of the texts she's sent since Tuesday (while he's been barred from contacting her) and took it to the police, who agreed that it constituted harassment

7:22 pm

uusue2

so they have contacted her and told her to knock it off

7:23 pm

jmcnrick

i nearly lost it this morning when i found out the boxes that my land lords let the ups lady leave because it was to hard to carry them up to my office had been there since tuesday and they were the newsletters i was waiting to be mailed

7:23 pm

jmcnrick

yay for the police!

7:23 pm

carleekat

knocking it off wont do it...

7:23 pm

carleekat

need to get a peace bond

7:23 pm

Nef

WOW! uu, I've missed something; but wishing you well for this

7:23 pm

jmcnrick

the only reason i found out about them was i worked late and happen to run into her she didn't think it was important

7:24 pm

DR1965

how can UPS NOT be important?

7:24 pm

jmcnrick

i agree with carlee--go on the attack and sue for a stay away order that is what finally got rid of the xbf of the gf

7:24 pm

uusue2

the lawyer is taking care of that next week, carlee (order of protection)

7:25 pm

jmcnrick

and the thing is she is being paid to deliver the stuff and we were in the office and she was just to lazy to come up the stairs -- the boxes weren't even that heavy

7:25 pm

jmcnrick

yay lawyer!

7:25 pm

carleekat

( up here is peace bond ... yay..working for a criminal lawyer...u learn stuff like this :p )

7:25 pm

uusue2

and he is probably going to depose her, too - she is lying and incoherent (at times) and will make a lousy witness

7:25 pm

DR1965

YAY Lawyer indeed!

7:25 pm

jmcnrick

*wraps uu and son in cotton batting*

7:26 pm

jmcnrick

that is why dick the butcher wanted to kill all the lawyers -- so no one would go after him

7:27 pm

uusue2

we've also made a complaint about the damage to his room from a couple of weeks ago, and the damage she did to my car during the fight

7:27 pm

carleekat

wow..i've been missing stuff

7:27 pm

jmcnrick

go uu go!

7:28 pm

uusue2

and he's written a narration of the events (which the police didn't want to listen to at the time) and given that to the police as well

7:28 pm

jmcnrick

:-D

7:28 pm

uusue2

and we're getting his medical records released to the lawyer (I took him to the doctor as soon as he got out of jail)

7:28 pm

carleekat

7:28 pm

Jillyjill

7:29 pm

carleekat

okie kokie...good

7:30 pm

uusue2

the lawyer will be handling all that now, carlee, and he seems very sharp, I am very happy with him

7:31 pm

MollyL

That must be helpful that Frank has some legal experience. He can help you sort through all the mumbo jumbo.

7:31 pm

uusue2

jmc, there isn't a copy here so they must not have been able to copy it at the police station

7:31 pm

Well, after my budget gets over what I'm going to have to pay to replace a toilet, I will continue dreaming about such a tub.

hmmmm drink that is a good idea carlee

MollyL

*Bows head in respectful silence as well*

7:55 pm

jmcnrick

well you would sh** if I told you what i am spending to fix up my house

jmcnrick

and yet facing unemployment

7:55 pm

Well then, thank God I'm getting a new toilet. Ahahaha!

7:55 pm

carleekat

7:56 pm

but thanks jmc..i would take jack if offfered.... neat or on the rocks...hmmm..neat i think

7:56 pm

jmcnrick

mix wine with club soda and add a little lemon juice

7:56 pm

MollyL

I always wonder about fixing up a house to sell it. It's a precarious equation as to what you recoup for what you spend fixing it up.

7:57 pm

jmcnrick

*pour carlee jack neat* the best way and pretty much the only way i drink it

7:57 pm

carleekat

well...we invested about 16K into fixing up...did it ourselves...

7:57 pm

carleekat

could have sold as is.../ was for about 165=170

7:58 pm

jmcnrick

if you spend mainly on cosmetics and put the real bucks in the kitchen and/or baths. . .

7:58 pm

carleekat

- 170K but with the 16K we should get low 240's

7:58 pm

jmcnrick

well done carlee it looks good

7:58 pm

carleekat

the kitchen was done...

7:58 pm

carleekat

so was bathrooms, deck, new interior doors and the driveway

7:59 pm

jmcnrick

what you can buy in DC for that price is a row house with no yard and probably no appliances in a "transitional" neighborhood

7:59 pm

carleekat

and a crap load of paint

7:59 pm

jmcnrick

paint is good

7:59 pm

carleekat

our neighbourhood is fairly high end...not executive mind....

7:59 pm

carleekat

upper middle.....just below executive

8:00 pm

carleekat

executive here is 300K ....all way up to 2.5 mil

8:00 pm

( that would be the 3+ acre lots on the lake with 5+ bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and 4 car garages )

( another thunder storm happening here..we have had 3 1/2 inches of rain in last 36 hours )

8:05 pm

jmcnrick

i think so--the best part is the basement opens to the front of the house

8:06 pm

uusue2

wow, carlee, that is a lot of rain!!!

8:06 pm

jmcnrick

we looked at this other one that i am fairly sure belonged to a drug dealer

8:06 pm

carleekat

that god we on sand else we would be flooding

8:06 pm

here we have had tons of rain and yet we are watering brown spots in the lawn...ahhh summer :(

8:08 pm

I don't know DC, is that a reasonable neighborhood?

8:08 pm

MollyL

Oh, well I did and it worked for me. JMC, I am appalled at the housing prices in DC.

8:10 pm

Jillyjill

Nice price for DC!

8:10 pm

jmcnrick

well my house is a semidetached with no a/c and is supposedly worth $550,000

8:11 pm

jmcnrick

it is an up and coming neighborhood--you won't get shoot at but you may be burgled

8:11 pm

jmcnrick

<===when was son's age lived in neighborhoods where getting shot was a possiblity

8:11 pm

MollyL

Just a DC address will jack up a house price considerably. Especially with all the young ones wanting to live in the city.

8:12 pm

jmcnrick

needless to say i want better for my boy than I had

8:12 pm

8:16 pm

From what little I know about real estate around here, he could get a smaller place, in better condition, in a safer neighborhood if he looked outside DC.

8:16 pm

fine..i will play along....am so tired my eyes are peeing..is that any better?

Echoing Sue. How does buying that place make him a real estate mogul? And you did nothing wrong JMC. Where they go once we are done raising them is not on us.

ah...hence the basement openning to front yard

8:24 pm

jmcnrick

8:24 pm

MollyL

<---Still doesn't understand why they can't universally be called "graham crackers". Digestive biscuits???

8:24 pm

stidmama

LOL I had an uncle bob (well, he was my great-aunt's husband), but he died.

8:24 pm

jmcnrick

8:24 pm

stidmama

graham is a brand name

8:25 pm

jmcnrick

but my favorite was al shabammy from alabammy

8:25 pm

jmcnrick

not any more i think stiddie

8:25 pm

uusue2

and they are somewhat different, graham crackers are a little less sweet and more textured

8:25 pm

carleekat

graham crackers are more...honey flavoured...and digestives are more of a meal...its like comparing bran flakes to corn flakes..graham crackers being the corn flakes

8:25 pm

MollyL

No, graham is not a brand name anymore.

8:26 pm

stidmama

8:29 pm

carleekat

hiya dawg

8:29 pm

MollyL

Yes, but we no longer believe that Dr. Pepper is anything more than soda pop.

8:29 pm

jmcnrick

it was the quicker pepper upper--that is why soda fountains were at pharmacies

8:29 pm

lbdawger

8:30 pm

lbdawger

hi UU, Hi Jmc

8:30 pm

jmcnrick

8:30 pm

8:30 pm

carleekat

hmm...tonic water

8:30 pm

carleekat

8:58 pm

jmcnrick

when you came in you saw another perennial bitch--the slur words

8:58 pm

tazman14

I don't get your example

8:59 pm

jmcnrick

f+anagram of what we breathe

8:59 pm

Pinikula

when people put a reference like fi4/7 in the chog, they're asking for a clue for a word that starts with fi, is 4 letters long, and worth 7 points

8:59 pm

lbdawger

taz, if you go to lickety's babble clues, you'll find a list of two letter "clues" to help you finish the grid.

8:59 pm

crosshair

ty jmc

8:59 pm

tazman14

fiar

8:59 pm

jmcnrick

its the shipping costs crossy

8:59 pm

jmcnrick

that's the one taz! lol

9:00 pm

crosshair

indeed jmc..there are many hands out for a piece of the pie

9:00 pm

uusue2

ah, taz, if you look at the word list it gives you the letters and the points in each word, so fi4/7 is a 4-letter word beginning with fi and having 7 points (and you did type it correctly :-)

9:00 pm

tazman14

oops. gotta remember to switch back over to the add word box...lol sorry about that.

9:00 pm

jmcnrick

but keep it in the add word!

9:00 pm

Hey Cross, I saw a pillow that had baco and eggs and a full breakfast all appliqued on it, I swear I was thinking of making it for you...

9:00 pm

jmcnrick

you get a few like that before we send you to the penalty box!

9:00 pm

uusue2

we all do it sometimes, taz, and get sent to the penalty box when it happens - but it happens often enough that the penalty box is usually stocked with some nice treats

trying to figure out why in the tile stats, for the letter "A", there's 2 of them. One says o/2 & the other 2/3?

9:26 pm

tazman14

no I sure haven't. I really haven't ventured off to see what everything is yet.

9:26 pm

Pinikula

the A 0/2 means there are two words that start with that A

9:26 pm

jmcnrick

that means that you have found none of the 2 words from that A and 2 of the 3 words from the other A

9:26 pm

uusue2

that's how many of the words that start with that letter you've found, taz

9:26 pm

uusue2

so for the upper right A, there are three words and you've found two of them

9:26 pm

jmcnrick

the help^ is actually helpful unlike some webpages

9:27 pm

carleekat

means u have found0/2 from that a and 2/3 of the other a for a total of 5 a words

9:27 pm

carleekat

gee..arent we a bundle of help tonight....

9:27 pm

Pinikula

love how we all say the same thing yet so slightly different

9:28 pm

uusue2

and besides the help link above, there's all of us talking in different directions :-)

9:28 pm

jmcnrick

:-) i was just thinking that

9:28 pm

uusue2

as pini said...

9:28 pm

tazman14

That's weird to me, how come they just didn't put it all together for the "A's" like 0/5, why have them seperate? Might seem like a silly question to u all but remember I'm new

9:28 pm

uusue2

and carlee...

9:28 pm

carleekat

its the stat for that one tile

9:29 pm

Pinikula

if they lumped them together, we'd be here all night and never finish, taz!

9:29 pm

tazman14

ahhh

9:29 pm

carleekat

we could have 3 or 4 s's and a total of 60+ s words..it lets you know how many words for that one tile

9:29 pm

jmcnrick

it helps especially when there are similar letters next to a tile so you know if you are look for as or ap

9:29 pm

Pinikula

if you look at the Tile Stats, it mimics the actual grid and identifies how many words come from and start with that particular tile

9:29 pm

uusue2

it's giving you the starting tile, taz

9:29 pm

carleekat

i smell a skunk outside..yack

9:30 pm

Pinikula

ewwwww

9:30 pm

jmcnrick

*gathers up the various thread thrown out for the last question*

9:30 pm

Pinikula

* closes sistah's windows *

9:30 pm

jmcnrick

newbie are welcome here taz

9:30 pm

uusue2

it's also nice when there aren't any words starting on a particular tile (there are quite a few in this grid) - then you don't waste time looking for words that aren't there

9:31 pm

carleekat

just forwarned...those stats are gone in 2 weeks time

9:31 pm

Maryte

9:32 pm

Pinikula

you're right, sistah, the tiles stats disappear after the 2-wk free period...will return if you upgrade for a low (and very reasonable) one-time lifetime membership!

9:32 pm

uusue2

(and ignore jmc, she's cluing the po6)

9:32 pm

carleekat

north and south are po5 opposites

9:32 pm

carleekat

what is the membership..like 20.00?

9:32 pm

jmcnrick

9:44 pm

Pinikula

ok...let's just talk about those monster grids!

9:44 pm

Pinikula

my preference is 200-300 words...

9:44 pm

Pinikula

200 on the weekdays, bigger on the weekends

9:44 pm

lbdawger

i can't remember the last time i was at the flip...darn work hours get me to the pillows way too early.

9:44 pm

jmcnrick

i like about 250

9:44 pm

carleekat

i like the 125-200 word ones...

9:45 pm

carleekat

nicely big enough it was a puzzle..not so big u get tired...

9:45 pm

carleekat

the 450's burn me out and i dont want to look at a grid for weeks

9:45 pm

carleekat

and i usually dont

9:45 pm

Pinikula

same here, sistah...thankfully we don't have a ton of those!

9:45 pm

lbdawger

depends on my work day, like small ones around 100 for the days i work late, otherwise, 200-275 is good. bigger than that slows my machine down.

I was reading back, quite an experience you had - but all replacement flooring has to be something to look forward to

11:43 pm

Pinikula

mine does that, too, mrp...it's so not a lovely sound!

11:43 pm

jillibus

I'm back -- can't respond to any emails all of a sudden.

11:43 pm

Pinikula

that's how I'm looking at it, flosey...can't wait!

11:43 pm

mrpresident

Hey do you all recall the song "I want a new drug" by Hewie Lewis and the News??

11:44 pm

flosey

11:44 pm

Pinikula

vaguely, mrp ;)

11:44 pm

Pinikula

wb jilli...sorry to hear about the glitch

11:44 pm

jillibus

Ye gods, mrp -- not the flu on top of everything else!

11:44 pm

flosey

11:44 pm

Pinikula

11:44 pm

mrpresident

yes jilli.... soon as I stepped into that court room!! started coughing

11:45 pm

mrpresident

it has happened every single time I go to court

11:45 pm

Pinikula

oh, soooo not good, mrp...hope the drugs and alcohol do their magic! :)

11:45 pm

mrpresident

my body just has a total shutdown

11:45 pm

mrpresident

thanks pini! they certainly will!

11:45 pm

jillibus

Allergic to courtrooms! Not surprising. :0(

11:46 pm

Pinikula

it's probably his body odor that sets it off...maybe you should offer him a bar of soap

11:46 pm

mrpresident

and Dimetapp chaser!!

11:46 pm

Pinikula

ROFL

11:46 pm

mrpresident

I hold my nose when I drive past his house!!

11:46 pm

Pinikula

11:47 pm

flosey

that must look cute mrp

11:47 pm

Pinikula

* giggle *

11:47 pm

mrpresident

yes, allergic to pyro's, pricks and stalkers in any courtroom

11:48 pm

Pinikula

what a combination

11:48 pm

mrpresident

the magistrate was totally on my side

11:48 pm

jillibus

what was the "incident" which set him off, mrp?

11:49 pm

mrpresident

she told 'the prick' that she was happy to hear that all was quiet on the western front as "Mrs P doesn't need anymore distractions in her medical condition".... hahahaha! she told him

11:49 pm

mrpresident

jilli, it is all in the bio... but it was all over a friggin dog!!

11:49 pm

mrpresident

you have to read it

11:50 pm

jillibus

I read the bio but didn't see what set him off -- a dog?

11:50 pm

jillibus

I'll read it again

11:53 pm

jillibus

"He blamed me for a fire of some rubbish on his driveway and damage to his car (coining)" in your bio, mrp -- what has this to do with a dog?

11:53 pm

Pinikula

what a read! * fingers crossed * I'm sure it will be resolved in your favor!

11:53 pm

Pinikula

(didn't recall seeing a 'dog' either)

11:54 pm

mrpresident

since the dog incident... he has blamed me for everything cause he is phychotic, obsessed and a stalker

11:54 pm

Pinikula

gotcha

11:54 pm

jillibus

what dog incident?

11:55 pm

mrpresident

we lost nothing... absolutely nothing when his dog was taken away, he was the one that had to pay $650 to get his K9 back

11:55 pm

Pinikula

was arson ruled out for the fire?

11:55 pm

mrpresident

How is it he thinks I want to get HIM back???

11:55 pm

mrpresident

oh, will update that in the bio jilli
His dog was here on our property for weeks

11:56 pm

jillibus

I'm confused -- know nothing about the dog...oh, thanks, mrp

11:56 pm

mrpresident

we called, we spoke, we did everything we could to ask them to remove their dog (they live about 700m from us) and he didn't give a shite about the dog. even told me to run it over, or pick it up and dump it in the bush.

11:57 pm

jillibus

oh, nice guy.

11:57 pm

Pinikula

what an a$$

11:57 pm

mrpresident

said he hated it and wasn't willing to do anything... lickety called him and told him to get his dog or he would call the ranger... his response?????

11:57 pm

mrpresident

"I don't give a F*** about the dog, do what you want".

11:58 pm

Pinikula

yep, a royal jerk

11:58 pm

mrpresident

yes pini, we call him 'the prick' just to make sure he has a lovely monika

11:58 pm

mrpresident

moniker even!

11:58 pm

Pinikula

* making a note of the well deserved name *

11:58 pm

mrpresident

1 minute to go!! 350 please

11:59 pm

jillibus

The Prick isn't a bad enough name for that subhuman.

11:59 pm

mrpresident
