oh -- I see -- the unavailability of those wines. It's just BC -- they may be available in other provinces.
12:36 am

when BC doesn't list a wine or any alcohol, you would have to place a special order for no less than a case

Easy and quick and GOOD! And leftovers...
12:50 am

1:32 am
flosey
great thanks ruby, thoroughly enjoying the kids being here - we were 10 for the weekend
1:32 am
jillibus
doing ok, thanks ruby, but getting pretty sleepy...
1:33 am
rubyfoo
I can't imagine 10 people for a meal anymore, even though I used to do it when I was younger
1:33 am
jillibus
how are you this morning ruby? I hear our Canadian boy has been having problems in the Tour.
1:34 am
jillibus
Flosey is a great hostess.
1:34 am
joey
half way, but hit the wall.
1:34 am
jillibus
wd joey -- I'm not even close
1:34 am
flosey
and daughters + d-i-l all help
1:34 am
rubyfoo
yes, Ryder has been having trouble. I think this is the most crashes, including many really serious ones (broken bones, etc), that I've ever seen in the first week of the race.
1:34 am
jillibus
won't have much time tomorrow
1:35 am
dart001
did you see the one caused by the french tv car?
1:35 am
rubyfoo
what's on your agenda ?
1:35 am
flosey
wtg joey, haven't reached half way yet - in spite of help here
1:35 am
jillibus
team cookery is more fun -- I am a very nervous cook for more than one -- not used to it any more!
1:36 am
rubyfoo
yes, it was shocking and Hoogeland, the guy who was injured by it, was broken after doing really well all day
1:36 am
joey
thanks flosey and jilibus. this one was fun, to this point. but getting harder
1:36 am
rubyfoo
I love team cookery, too, but rarely have a team on hand
1:36 am
dart001
they are up on you tube under tour de france stage 9 crashes
1:37 am
jillibus
I saw some on the TV news -- loooked horrendous. I hear the driver who hit the bike has been fired.
1:38 am
rubyfoo
lucky me (NOT), but I saw it as it happened because they usually focus on the breakaway group. I felt saddest, though, about Vinokurov's crash because he almost won the day before and this was a rotten way to end his career.
1:38 am
dart001
guy did a back flip and landed into a barbed wire fence post
1:39 am
jillibus
I thought he then rejoined the race -- no?
1:40 am
dart001
they both finished...near the end of the riders...they were in the lead breakaway group 5 min+ ahead of the re4 before the crash
1:40 am
rubyfoo
yes, he did, but was way behind the big group for the rest of the day. I don't know if he got the climbers' jersey but I think he got the "most combative" of the day
1:40 am
dart001
he did get the jersey...but had to finish to get it
1:41 am
rubyfoo
I watch for about 4 hours a day, but don't stick around for the "aprs-Tour" because by then it's dinner time
1:41 am
rubyfoo
I am glad to hear that
1:41 am
dart001
I taped it and fast-forwarded thru the commercials
1:42 am
rubyfoo
dart, did you get to see a re-play of Vino's crash? It was terribly sad and I don't yet know if his pelvis AND femur are broken or just one of them
1:42 am
jillibus
Oh, I don't think I heard about that :-(
1:42 am
dart001
they were in comm break when it happened here...but they showed them being carried up the hill by teammates....
1:42 am
rubyfoo
where my son lives, in Austin TX, they used to show hours a day while Lance was still riding, but they don't any more
1:43 am
dart001
they have full coverage in the US on versus ...and then recaps every evening
1:43 am
jillibus
What happened to Vino?
1:44 am
jillibus
He wasn't the one thrown into the fence, was he?
1:44 am
rubyfoo
he was just behind a serious pile-up and fell into a ravine. He had to be lifted out by several guys and was immediately whisked away in an ambulance
1:44 am
rubyfoo
no, his crash was worse but much less visible
1:44 am
dart001
no...bunch rounded a curve too fast and went over a railing and down a hill into trees
1:45 am
rubyfoo
because he was in the big group and the cameramen can't ride alongside
1:45 am
rubyfoo
it was awful
1:45 am
jillibus
I think I'll be hearing about it in a few minutes when the TV news covers sports
1:46 am
rubyfoo
he had served his 2-year suspension, was going to retire anyway in Oct, and was truly hoping to win a stage.
1:46 am
dart001
ruby tell your son to look for versus...on all the cable line-ups...available on sat. but you have to get the biger package
1:47 am
rubyfoo
I don't think he's a fan like his mom but his wife probably watches
1:47 am
dart001
jilli go to you tube..type in tour de france stage 9 crashes...you'll see them...some are in different langs. tho
1:47 am
rubyfoo
I'm writing it down
1:47 am
rubyfoo
jilli probably speaks 3 languages: Eng, Fr and Babble!
1:48 am
jillibus
LOL ruby!

1:48 am

4:42 am

4:43 am
grannyrose
3 legs????
4:43 am
master_president
he puts it into 6th gear is is going 130km and the chicken is still next to him.... then the chicken takes off, passes him and runs into a farm yard barn!
4:43 am
master_president

4:43 am
grannyrose
ok, sucker me in
4:44 am
sprite
this is a good one, rose, just wait :)
4:44 am
master_president
so the guy pulls up and goes into the property and up to the farmer... and says, "do you have a 3 legged chicken?"... the farmers says, "yes, we breed them"
4:45 am
master_president
the guy asks 'why do you breed 3 legged chickens?'.... he replies.... 'well, my wife and son and I all love the leg of the chicken, and we fight over it at dinner, so decided to breed a three legged chicken to stop the fighting'.
4:45 am
master_president
and the guy says, "well, how do they taste?"
4:45 am
grannyrose
and.....?????
4:45 am

Because the ACC were going to nard them big time over false advertising about 'real' coffee
5:05 am
master_president
they ask me to have my kids in the background cause they are tall, skinny and good looking 'white' children.
5:05 am
herinfernallady

8:22 am
poodletoes
I am really sorry for all the hot and dry weather. It is because we had our backyard sodded.
8:23 am
uusue2
looks like the storms we had are going to miss you, poodle, but they certainly were exciting!
8:23 am

Yeah Poodle, I would be thinking that if I had done the same. : )

8:42 am
rubyfoo
it's nasty
8:43 am

something doesn't add up. Lickety says I need 5874 for 351 words. You say I need 352, that makes sense because Lickety missed out a word. But I have 5855 pts and that means one word for 19 points???

12:37 pm
car.eeyore
You focus on YOUR tasks today. The children can do their tasks as well or they will have twice as many to do tomorrow. Their choice. Leave up a list of who does what. If it isn't done, leave the list up at the party. If anyone wonders why something isn't quite right, they will know who to blame. Enough is enough.
12:37 pm

actually, someday I hope to meet you... I think physics is fascinating, though my last study of it was in high school about 30 years ago (I watch NOVA a lot though...)

well, if you are ever passing through Illinois, let me know! We are very convenient to the interstate :-)

well, that is good! A lot of my money went into improving this 120-year-old house - it is indeed improved but not yet done, and the money is pretty much gone. Sigh.

I think houses are just plain expensive -- if you want them to look like the magazines, anyway. I like to have lots of colors and such, but generally have fairly eclectic furniture (a lot of hand-me-downs/family heirlooms mixed with ikea finds)
9:13 pm
uusue2
I haven't even started thinking about furniture (I do have a nice dining room set but that is about it).
9:14 pm

I was blessed with a mother in law who likes to decorate, and who "donated" many things when we moved in. We have gradually been replacing the less-sentimental items from that time with pieces from my grandmother's home or size-appropriate pieces (we are small and so is our home).
9:15 pm

ah - no relatives here, perhaps that's my problem :-)

Speaking of the 1800's, I watched the movie "Gettysburg" this weekend. Well done movie, but damn, war is stupid. Especially our Civil War. Over slavery? I need to go volunteer for JMC.

I have a table loom I don't know how to use

Hoot I have started to say 'can someone be blessed with this if I can't use it''
10:57 pm
herinfernallady
Oooooo Table Loom
10:57 pm
dianedecoder
I'm just about to purge my craft/sewing room too !
10:57 pm
hootowl
Well I did that with some clothes that I was going to redo. Went to vets collection
10:58 pm
hootowl
Bf did it with his too. Filled a VERY large trash bag!
10:58 pm
herinfernallady
My suggestion is learn to use it or if it doesn't hold value sentimentally Google (for instance) Table Loom Wanted.
10:59 pm
joey
if you have towels, blankets that you want to recycle don't forget your local animal shelter. they would be grateful
10:59 pm
hootowl
I'm still trying to organise mine. It's the first time I've been able to get it all together and it's driving me crazy
10:59 pm

11:00 pm
herinfernallady
Local Animal shelter's love sheets and blankets. Sheets are great for dogs having puppies and blankets are so snuggly and comfy. I also donate only to non kill shelters
11:00 pm
hootowl
Think they can help me figure out the loom?
11:00 pm
herinfernallady
I would say so Hoot
11:01 pm
hootowl
well that leaves our shelter out! They love to kill.
11:01 pm
hootowl
Thanks herin - I'll give it a try.
11:01 pm
herinfernallady
Never encourage asshat places that don't want to help animals.
11:02 pm
joey
hootowl, not all of the animals are killed, they need soft places too.
11:02 pm
herinfernallady
Hoot I would also suggest a local community craft group. For instances Google : (your city) loom work
11:02 pm
hootowl
they claim they are but it doesn't happen. New manager and plenty of volunteers but same behind the scenes assholes!
11:02 pm
herinfernallady
Joey why would you encourage and donate to a kill shelter when there are plenty of rescue groups that don't kill.
11:03 pm
hootowl
I thought the local SCA group would help but they are from hunger
11:03 pm
joey
just because.
11:03 pm
joey
donating blankets is not encouraging them to kill.
11:03 pm
hootowl
Thats the Society for Creative Anancronism
11:04 pm
joey
love that hootowl.
11:04 pm
joey
i am putting my nose back in the grid
11:04 pm
herinfernallady
Yesh I am not saying that at all. SHelters with a high kill rate don't give a stuff about animals. They really don't. That is the powers that run the place not the volunteers. I have heard of volunteers smuggling out animals to give them a new home
11:04 pm
hootowl
you know it joey?
11:05 pm
herinfernallady
Well I should sod off back into the spare room and try and see the floor by 5pm
11:05 pm
hootowl
yep - they've tried that too. Against the law!
11:06 pm
hootowl
they want the money!
11:06 pm
hootowl
good luck herin - bye
