1:17 am

mrpresident

the imagery coming off that island in Norway is just not acceptable for human consumption! Why do the news corps do that??

1:18 am

mrpresident

sorry, but it is bloody disturbing to see that

1:19 am

meliae

because they are selfless money hungry newscasters who dont give a damn about the friends and familes of the vitims

1:19 am

vanillaslice

I think we need to see this mrp we all need to wake up to how we live with each other

1:19 am

meliae

victims* makes me mad too

1:19 am

mrpresident

or the people who will suffer endless sleepless nights from seeing that

1:20 am

meliae

they can talk about it all they want, they just do not have to be so crass when it comes to the images

1:20 am

mrpresident

i understand vanilla, the wake up call came back in 2001... but to show live footage?? no

1:20 am

mrpresident

that is what I am saying meli... it was just awful to see that!

1:21 am

vanillaslice

I know its horrible

1:21 am

mrpresident

dead kids on the rocks of the island?? video footage?

1:21 am

meliae

there was a wreck by my house the other night, a man died, my idiot neighbor was down there with his cell phone taking pictures before the police and ambulance even got there, I was so darn mad at him and screamed at him to back off

1:22 am

mrpresident

I just cry when I see that... I watched live the second plane go into the twin tower and that was enough for me to cry for days

1:22 am

mrpresident

what a d**khead! i hope he gets arrested for that kind of behaviour

1:22 am

vanillaslice

sry have to go bbl

1:22 am

mrpresident

see ya vanilla

1:23 am

meliae

I told the police he had pictures and told them where he lived

1:23 am

meliae

I do not know if they did anything about it however

1:23 am

meliae

brb need a snack =)

1:24 am

mrpresident

sorry to come in the convo with this, but it shocked me!

1:27 am

mrpresident

brb, need a vodka

1:30 am

meliae

is the tr 8 a compoun word?

1:30 am

mrpresident

haven't found it yet meli

1:30 am

mrpresident

oh, and to top it off, my daughter came home with sad news too

1:32 am

meliae

oh what is up with her?

1:32 am

mrpresident

one of her good friends... 13 years old... pregnant

1:33 am

meliae

oh my goodness another baby having a baby

1:33 am

mrpresident

and she isn't telling an adult about it.... won't tell her mother, is just ignoring it and hoping it will 'go away'

1:34 am

meliae

perhaps your daughter can talk to the school nurse?

1:34 am

mrpresident

i know the young girl... it is a situation I can't obviously get involved in.

1:35 am

flosey

can you talk to the young girl mrp?

1:35 am

mrpresident

i have suggested that her friend speak with the school welfare councelor

1:35 am

mrpresident

i can flosey, but I would be putting my nose in where it wasn't welcome.

1:36 am

mrpresident

i feel for her... she can't communicate with her mother, and to be having unprotected sex at 13 is just incredibly dumb! The both of them... the boy is 13 too, I know of him

1:36 am

mrpresident

i feel that a call to the school welfare officer is warranted... but keep it anon

1:37 am

meliae

that is what I would do

1:37 am

mrpresident

my daughter wants to take her to our doctor, and the girl has agreed

1:38 am

mrpresident

but she doesn't want her mum to know about it

1:38 am

meliae

can children that young down there go to the dr without a parent to sign for them?

1:38 am

mrpresident

by law, i have to report it

1:39 am

mrpresident

no meli, her mother would find out cause the doc would have to tell

1:40 am

meliae

well she needs to be seen what if there are complications? both for her sake and the babies

1:42 am

flosey

certainly she can see a doctor without parental knowledge but the doctor would advise her of her options and the necessity of parents knowledge

1:43 am

rururocks

oh boy

1:44 am

jillibus

and the boy has no worries

1:44 am

mrpresident

that is true flosey

1:44 am

mrpresident

no jilli, he hasn't reacted either way... cause he is 13

1:45 am

mrpresident

if I reported it to a teacher, it would then be by law that the teacher would have to report it to authorities... It is another way around

1:45 am

robbie09

hi babblers,mrp,jilli,flosey,ruru,meliae.
...I couldn't sleep, and just came online.....I just glanced over at the chog...mrp..I am worried that if you take the girl to the doctor without her parents knowledge that you are setting yourself up for trouble?

1:46 am

mrpresident

a 13 year old would have no bloody clue i should think. he would only wait and see what she did

1:46 am

mrpresident

hi robbie :)

1:46 am

rururocks

someone has to r3eport it before the girl does something dumb

1:46 am

mrpresident

i know robbie, that is why I don't want to do it that way

1:46 am

jillibus

I was just thinking about the unfairness of it all

1:46 am

robbie09

mrp..hugs!

1:46 am

mrpresident

yes ruru, you are right... she is covering up her feelings right now... not good.

1:47 am

robbie09

very sad situation

1:47 am

rururocks

babies dont' jsut go away.. ask Arnold Swarzenegger

1:47 am

mrpresident

lickety and i spoke about it, the welfare of the girl is important

1:47 am

rururocks

yes.. her welfare comes first.

1:48 am

robbie09

why can't the girl speak to her mother..is she scared or other problems?

1:48 am

rururocks

it's too late to condom her activities

1:48 am

mrpresident

robbie, some kids are not supervised, the parents are off having their 'own life' and the mother doesn't even know she has a boyfriend

1:49 am

flosey

older girls than this one have been afraid to tell their parents, she needs guidance, are there public health clinics in your area mrp

1:49 am

mrpresident

yes flosey

1:49 am

jillibus

tsk tsk ruru

1:50 am

flosey

the nurses there are generally very understanding, caring, and would certainly advise her to involve her parent(s)

1:50 am

rururocks

have her watch Juno mr. P

1:50 am

mrpresident

I can't do much unless it is ''true'' either.

1:51 am

flosey

absolutely, reason to see Dr. if she isn't, Dr. does not have to say anything

1:51 am

mrpresident

no ruru, but I am about to watch a movie called "Thirteen"... my MIL gave me a copy and said 'watch it!' so will put it on tonight

1:51 am

mrpresident

correct flosey, absolutely right

1:51 am

flosey

at least she can be tested at a clinic

1:52 am

robbie09

mrp..has she taken a home test?

1:52 am

mrpresident

just a urine test, and then a blood test would need to be authorised if she was

1:53 am

mrpresident

robbie, i am not sure... the girls are keeping tightlipped, but my daughter tells me everything she knows

1:53 am

robbie09

those urine tests are pretty acurate

1:54 am

rururocks

thirteen.. wow

1:54 am

mrpresident

unfortunately, one of her friends was having sex at 11.

1:54 am

rururocks

omg

1:54 am

robbie09

poor dear!...I have a friend who had a baby at 15...13 is so young

1:55 am

robbie09

yikes! 11!

1:55 am

mrpresident

this one particular girl has her reputation, and all the boys know where to go to 'get some'

1:56 am

robbie09

oh boy...sounds like a troubled girl..how sad

1:59 am

rururocks

it will trouble her .. her whole life I bet

1:59 am

rururocks

where are the parents in all of this

2:00 am

flosey

she will certainly never forget it

2:03 am

meliae

I had my first child at 15 but I had a very loving and supportive family, something it sounds like she does not have unfortunately

2:03 am

meliae

and she is also 2 years younger than I was I just cannot imagine that

2:04 am

rururocks

me neither

2:04 am

robbie09

yes, 2 years means so much at that age!

2:05 am

rururocks

so much for a first kiss in australia I guess

2:05 am

meliae

I was actually 2 months shy of my 16th birthday but sheesh it was still rough with my family helping and all I went through some rough times, all the boys thought that because I had already had a baby I was easy, and mind you this wqs 37 years ago, it was way more bad then

2:06 am

rururocks

yes meliae.. it was different then

2:07 am

robbie09

I'm so glad that you had a supportive family meliae

2:07 am

meliae

my mom liked to say I was a good kid until "that" night, first time I snuck out, first time I got drunk, first time I had sex, and first time I got pregnant. LOL

2:08 am

rururocks

oh

2:08 am

meliae

I did it all in one fell swoop LOL easy to laugh about now but sheesh

2:09 am

rururocks

talk about d

2:09 am

rururocks

talk about going out with a bang..

2:09 am

meliae

dont you know I nai
led my daughters window shut when she hit puberty LOL

2:09 am

meliae

hahahah Ru

2:10 am

robbie09

lol mel

2:11 am

rururocks

I'd best be off to bed. Night all

2:12 am

jillibus

g'night ruru

2:12 am

robbie09

nite ruru

2:12 am

flosey

g'night ru

2:12 am

meliae

sure seems to me a 13 year old now days would have a lot of trouble having a baby, our bodies have aged in that sense, 200 years ago it was more common to have babies young, since our lifespans were much shorter, but if I remember correctly they say 13 year olds back then were like 18 year olds now days

2:12 am

rururocks

*waves bye*

2:13 am

meliae

nini Ruru sweet dreams

2:13 am

jillibus

interesting, mel

2:14 am

robbie09

I know girls are having their periods a lot younger than in my day..many are 9 years old now.

2:14 am

meliae

I think that has to do with all the hormones in food, I think I may have read about that somewhere

2:15 am

meliae

fake hormones that is that the farmers etc put in the feed

2:16 am

rururocks

those are pasturized hormones though.

2:17 am

jillibus

poor ruru -- he can't help it

2:17 am

rururocks

*giggle*

2:17 am

meliae

Today, little girls are made up of more than just sugar, spice, and everything nice. These girls of the twenty-first century are maturing earlier than last generation's children, and something is very different about their womanly physical attributes and behavior. Could there be a food link to this mystery?

2:18 am

meliae

go read this, http://www.health101.org/art_Milk_and_
Girls.htm

2:20 am

robbie09

There is also the problem of people flushing pills...and the hormones staying in the water supply from that

2:21 am

meliae

that article is about breast cancer but it also coreelates with what we have been talking about

2:21 am

jillibus

I heard about a way to dispose of pills -- crush them and mix them in with coffee grounds and then put the lot in the garbage

2:22 am

robbie09

that's a good idea jilli

2:23 am

meliae

I heard that too Jilli, and that is what I have been doing, some I return to the pharmacy as well

2:23 am

jillibus

oh yes, mel, that too

2:25 am

meliae

brb time to close some windows it has finally cooled off a bit

2:27 am

jillibus

we had our first really summery day today -- but a week or so of cloud is predicted, with cooler temps :-(

2:27 am

robbie09

wow!It has been in the 90 degrees here!

2:29 am

meliae

94 here in springfield oregon was miserable I do not have air conditioning so I bought Ice blocks and put them in front of my fans to help cool the air

2:29 am

jillibus

our little corner of the continent has had a chilly, wet spring with only a few sunny days scattered sparsely between the clouds.

2:29 am

robbie09

good idea meliae! and drink plenty of water,too!

2:30 am

jillibus

And spring has extended way into "summer" while everyone else is roasting.

2:30 am

flosey

and hubby's garden is suffering for it, jilli - everything is late

2:31 am

robbie09

I was dehydrated a week ago, and collapsed..It was a 92 degree day!

2:32 am

flosey

that would be frightening robbie

2:32 am

meliae

we had that too Jilli, it rained and rained, all the crops are late, the cherries split from the rain. A lot of the farmers are going to have a rough go at it this year.

2:33 am

jillibus

Where are you, mel?

2:33 am

meliae

I drink piles of liquids I am addicted to having a drink of some kind at all times, usually water, but drink a lot of juices as well.

2:34 am

meliae

Springfield Oregon, willamette valley, it is south of Portland Oregon

2:34 am

robbie09

It was flosey..an ambulance took me to the hospital!My head still hurts from where i hit it when I fell.

2:34 am

mrpresident

2:34 am

jillibus

oh yes -- Pacific Northwest

2:34 am

meliae

good heavens Robbie so scary

2:35 am

robbie09

2:35 am

meliae

wb Mrp hope it was a pleasant phone call =)

2:35 am

jillibus

over halfway and ready for bed

2:36 am

meliae

55 to go for me and I think my brain already went to bed without me, lol

2:37 am

mrpresident

it was pleasant! am seeing a girlfriend tomorrow arvo and making her some dinner to take home for the family

2:37 am

mrpresident

she is clear of breast cancer for 12 weeks now and returned to work, so helping out where I can with food that she likes!

2:37 am

jillibus

good morning all

4:12 am

Glantarell

Hi Sprite - I was just wondering if there was anybody here

4:12 am

sprite

just arrived :) How are you doing?

4:13 am

Glantarell

just arrived too - second visit iof the day - and this grid is one of the more difficult variety

4:13 am

Glantarell

but at least the sun is shining today

4:14 am

sprite

sun is good. Was wondering about the grid indeed, not the usual seeing-more-words-than-I can-type start!

4:15 am

herinfernallady

Hi

4:15 am

Glantarell

i've got to 80 and have listed - I don;t usually do that until at least half way

4:15 am

sprite

hey lady

4:15 am

Glantarell

Hi Herin

4:15 am

herinfernallady

How are you all?

4:16 am

sprite

tired still, but otherwise fairly ok. You?

4:16 am

Glantarell

I am fine herin - and you?

4:17 am

herinfernallady

Tired and my head hurts and I should be getting with the back.

4:17 am

herinfernallady

room

4:17 am

Glantarell

getting with the back room?

4:18 am

herinfernallady

That was tiding up and sorting the back room. Sorry

4:18 am

sprite

back room can wait if you don't feel well. Take some rest, hun

4:18 am

herinfernallady

I was just on the phone discussing how I managed to brake my pc

4:19 am

Glantarell

guess it's fixed now as you're here with us?

4:19 am

herinfernallady

It is broken but still works. It is just kind of hanging there. Not sure if I will be upgrading in a few months or just buying it outright.

4:20 am

herinfernallady

Sprite I am taking it easy

4:20 am

sprite

good :)

4:21 am

herinfernallady

We used a computer program last night to sort out the back room except someone has mismeasured

4:22 am

herinfernallady

Glant I seem to have broken one side of the mouse button. It is sitting like a chair with a short leg

4:22 am

Glantarell

what are you having done herin?

4:23 am

sprite

at home I have been using the same mouse for over 15 years now.

4:23 am

herinfernallady

Just putting in new shelves

4:23 am

herinfernallady

Sprite do you play pc computer games?

4:24 am

Glantarell

new mice are very cheap these days - even infra red and usb ones

4:24 am

Glantarell

i broke the mouse button on my netbook because i played too much pc games

4:24 am

herinfernallady

Yes they are but this is inbuilt and the problem is I ahve seemed to broken the usb's too

4:24 am

sprite

I know, but I always have trouble replacing something that isn't broken

4:24 am

Glantarell

so i had to buy a mouse to carry on LOL

4:24 am

sprite

yes I play wow and GW, lady

4:25 am

Glantarell

me too, why does everybody think thye need new things all the time?

4:25 am

sprite

lol Glant, that fanatic huh!

4:25 am

herinfernallady

This is why my button is broken. Too many hit and hit and hit again games

4:25 am

Glantarell

addicted :-)

4:27 am

herinfernallady

Glan talking to me who doesn't get a new mobile until it dies completly

4:27 am

herinfernallady

sorry about my spelling

4:27 am

sprite

I seem to have a gentle hand. My aswd buttons don't go bad either, although on my laptop the letters themselves had vanished.

4:29 am

herinfernallady

I don't

4:29 am

Glantarell

me neither

4:29 am

herinfernallady

And I turned off a tv show last night because of blatant waste

4:30 am

sprite

had a new computer built a couple of years ago... laptop had died completely. But moved my mouse from laptop to new puter.

4:30 am

Glantarell

I've pretty much given uip on TV - I justy watch my favourite shows - about 4 a week - on BBC iPlayer

4:30 am

Glantarell

can you get BBC iPlayer if you're not in the UK?

4:31 am

sprite

I watch dvds when I want to watch tv.

4:32 am

sprite

I don't know

4:34 am

sprite

good heavens, I have 75 words found, 151 left and it feels and plays like I should only need about 30 more. Slow grid!

4:35 am

Glantarell

have 102 now - and slogging through

4:36 am

sprite

glad I am not the only one, grin\

4:36 am

Glantarell

just remembered that those bison/cow crosses can be spelt with both single T or double T

4:38 am

sprite

thanks Glant

4:38 am

Glantarell

i was stuck on the last ca7 & ca8 for ages until that crossed my mind lOL

4:39 am

sprite

didn't have them at all, so that gave me 4

4:40 am

herinfernallady

Does that have the male ending ?

4:40 am

sprite

no, the buff- ending

4:41 am

herinfernallady

THe reeds

4:41 am

herinfernallady

My bad that is even a word. I wonder what they taste like

4:42 am

sprite

like most beef, probably

4:42 am

herinfernallady

I wonder if they produce a good milk too

4:43 am

sprite

no idea, but probably

4:44 am

sprite

I will never understand why hit + male isn't valid. As in rent-a-killer.

4:45 am

herinfernallady

Is it hyphenated?

4:45 am

Glantarell

me neither

4:45 am

Glantarell

nor why enable doesn't recognise Santa

4:45 am

sprite

Santa needs a capital, that might be the reason?

4:46 am

herinfernallady

O gosh I just found out my friend is going to be an uncle again

4:46 am

sprite

always nice

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Not with this person. She is an idiot

4:46 am

Glantarell

doh! just found the volcano

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Put it nicely

4:47 am

sprite

hold on... your friend, who is going to be an uncle, is a girl??

4:47 am

sprite

good job Glant (and plural)

4:47 am

Glantarell

well, enable recognises so many spanish words that i thought santa might sneak through even if enable doesn't believe in Father Christmas LOL

4:47 am

herinfernallady

O sorry. He is nice. The person having the kid is not so much

4:48 am

sprite

lol Glant, it should, shouldn't it!

4:48 am

sprite

ah sorry lady, I was a bit slow. Well, good for the baby that at least there is a nice uncle.

4:48 am

herinfernallady

Does that make sense?

4:48 am

sprite

yes it does

4:50 am

herinfernallady

Sorry. I am failing at multi tasking

4:51 am

sprite

if I don't understand you, it doesn't mean you are failing... just means I am slow ;)

4:51 am

herinfernallady

I am trying to eat pizza andI swear it is a big thig

4:57 am

herinfernallady

O drool Sprite

4:57 am

Glantarell

4:57 am

sprite

very tasty, and very easy and quick to make

4:57 am

Glantarell

have you ever baked a sweet red pepper with one or two cherry tomatoes inside, a spoonful of olive oil, and crushed garlic clove and a chopped anchovy - it tastes divine

4:58 am

Glantarell

cut the peppers and cherry tomatoes in half

4:58 am

sprite

o that sounds delicious!

4:59 am

Glantarell

bake several in a dish and serve with bread to mop the juices up - makes a great starter or light meal

Glantarell

5:03 am

Kallia

5:03 am

sprite

I love a day at home alone. Especially when the food is already prepared, lol.

5:03 am

Kallia

5:03 am

Glantarell

most of the long words are PR

5:04 am

sprite

5:04 am

Glantarell

I won't, but as he's off every friday I can't take Fridays which would be myh preference

5:04 am

Kallia

5:04 am

herinfernallady

5:04 am

Glantarell

Kallia

5:28 am

sprite

5:29 am

Kallia

it's lovely here today, how long are you away for? hope the weather improves for you

5:30 am

sprite

my love and I came here a week ago, went back on saturday to pick up our kids from summer camp. We will go home next week on Tuesday.

5:30 am

sprite

nice weather would be good, but even without that, it is still a change in place and pace. We are enjoying ourselves.

5:33 am

Kallia

that's a nice break then sprite. And really good that you had time alone....

5:34 am

sprite

yes, we needed that. Kids are not in the easiest phase, lol, at 13 and 15. It is nice to have a break... I have my sense of humour back, which is the only way for me to handle two adolescents in da house ;)

5:35 am

Kallia

oh yes, that age can be full of pitfalls ....boys in particular start to grunt in response to any thing!

5:36 am

sprite

oh exactly! He comes back from camp, I ask how it was... he grunts: "Boring!"
Then, later, I say he won't go again, of course... and he wants to know where did I get that stupid idea from, because it was fun.

5:37 am

Kallia

lol....been there....so frustrating

5:37 am

sprite

isn't it just, lol.

5:38 am

Kallia

ok thats it for me for now...nbt, and over half way.

I am not into watching sports, but I happened to see him win. Beautiful style, modest and kind guy. Great legs too ;)

6:05 am

6:25 am

jmcnrick

ty sprite

6:25 am

rubyfoo

ty sprite!

6:25 am

mrpresident

think that it is ok to have many partners in their life, but marry to make it 'ok' to everyone else

6:25 am

uusue2

and plural of the ed4/5, of course...

6:26 am

rubyfoo

or Liz Taylor wilding Burton Fisher Burton and what's-his-name

6:26 am

jmcnrick

6:26 am

mrpresident

8 or 9 i think

6:26 am

rubyfoo

she had at least 5 if you count Richard Burton twice

6:26 am

sprite

I think it is easy to judge, harder to understand. I don't think I can judge their choices, because I don't know enough about themselves.

6:26 am

NonoNanette

6:26 am

sprite

lol, thanks uusue! How could I miss that one.

6:27 am

6:27 am

sprite

hi Nanette, la to you too :)

6:27 am

rubyfoo

snap, sprite!

6:27 am

mrpresident

indeed sprite, but they give interviews that make little sense to me... 'we live day by day, week by week, month by month... to make our relationship ours'... bulls##t

6:27 am

mrpresident

hi nono!

6:28 am

jmcnrick

well i have had more than that number sexual partners and i think they just married all of them rather than have a relationship without the benefit of marriage

6:28 am

jmcnrick

whose else relationship would it be?

6:28 am

sprite

don't know if that is bullshit, it may be the way they feel about it.

6:29 am

mrpresident

exactly jmc!

6:29 am

jmcnrick

what i find is the things we say to our loved ones are incredibly hokey but we don't get quoted by the press

6:29 am

sprite

could be a language thing too. Some things sound weird in translation.

6:29 am

uusue2

hi, nono!

6:29 am

jmcnrick

j'lo speaks english

6:30 am

rubyfoo

you think calling your dog "poopy" is weird?

6:30 am

sprite

ah ok. Didn't sound english to me, her name, lol

6:30 am

uusue2

depends on where the dog just pooped, I think :-)

6:30 am

mrpresident

i tell my husband the truth... every single time... 'you are so p*&sing me off and I will hurt you in .02 of a second if you continue down this path'... we then sort it out, yelling or heads together in solace...

6:30 am

jmcnrick

haha sprite

6:30 am

sprite

wellllll yes it sounds weird, rubyfoo, but hey, people call their dogs give their dogs even weirder names.

6:30 am

rubyfoo

I once met Marc Anthony on a plane going to Miami and I had never heard of him. He was miffed that I hadn't; it was just before he was in Capeman, Paul Simon's failed musical

6:31 am

jmcnrick

many people call their dogs (and children) poopy

6:31 am

sprite

in dutch it is an endearment, btw. "Je bent een poepie" = you are a doll, a sweetheart.

6:31 am

mrpresident

ruby, he is a walking drugged skeleton... I would think that having children would have settled him, but seems it got worse

6:31 am

rubyfoo

and I think it sounds like Ruby to her anyway, at least she doesn't act insulted

6:32 am

mrpresident

I call my children many things! just not infront of them! LOL

6:32 am

rubyfoo

I like poepie!! very cute word

6:32 am

uusue2

<--- is happy she has no idea who Marc Anthony is

6:32 am

mrpresident

I wouldn't know this Marc Anthony if I tripped over his shadow!

6:32 am

jmcnrick

haha i called my son bubbala and my staff thought i was calling him a swear word

6:32 am

sprite

my love and I often use endearments, or words that have become endearments even though other people wouldn't think so. Nothing wrong with that.

6:32 am

rubyfoo

he's a popular singer but not in my shtetl

6:33 am

mrpresident

poopsie is a cute word!

6:33 am

carleekat

i dont like marc anthony himself but he has a lovely voice....very sexy

6:33 am

jmcnrick

6:33 am

rubyfoo

maybe she was his first wife! hahah

6:33 am

rubyfoo

hi carlee

6:33 am

jmcnrick

my husband and i called each other counselor as endearments

6:33 am

mrpresident

i think J Lo thought she was Cleopatra with that ghoul around

6:33 am

jmcnrick

hi carlee

6:33 am

sprite

I will say again: easy to judge. Hard to judge fairly though... you cannot tell about a man's walk unless you have been in his shoes.

will have to look for the ji 7 when we get south this winter -- have never seen any here. How do you cook them? or are they eaten raw? and what do they look like?

10:49 am

cybernan

The sears store in the states is not the same as the one here, which used to be Simpson-Sears rather than Sears-Robuck. Much better quality merchandise than the US Sears.

10:50 am

cybernan

can anyone tell me more about the ji 7 before I leave? guess I could always google it!

10:50 am

cybernan

anyone want clues?

good morning everyone... had to make my raspberry jam before I dared to play Babble .

11:34 am

Aloyisius

hi diane - do you have raspberry plants?

11:35 am

dianedecoder

we used to have a large patch but dug them out when we built the new fence. Luckily we have friends who don't pick theirs but are willing to share in exchange for a few jars of jam ! Hi Aloy :-)

11:35 am

Aloyisius

nice arrangement!

11:35 am

we have enough of our own though, to put on ice cream, etc.

11:41 am

dianedecoder

I'd gladly send you some... we had rain all last week but this week looks sunnier! wish I could share the jam too

11:42 am

Wolvie

ty molly - should have seen that. :-)

11:42 am

Wolvie

and ty dos

11:42 am

That would not be a person who believes in j's. It would be the religion or practice of believing in j's.

11:43 am

doseffing

... yes ... thanks Diane ... it finally got to here this morning ... watered the lawn for an hour yesterday evening ... so we naturally got six hours of rain and thunder this morning

MollyL

Hilarious comment from a nun on a TV show...Bars are like Mass...with too much wine, and everyone praying to get laid.

11:45 am

doseffing

... you're right ... a believing in the letter j would be ji4/10 ... the person doing it would be a ji 4/9 and as that word doesn't exist ... we can assume it is a false belief

11:46 am

Aloyisius

from a real nun? wow

No Aloy, a character playing a nun.

Interesting show "The Booth At The End" on hulu.com.
People come to a man who can "get things" for them and agree to do "a task" (provided by him) to get what they want. These tasks are often very difficult/illegal/immoral things. It's an interesting study about the lengths people will go to, to get what they "really want".

if i ruled babble land i would only make a couple of changes--the first one would be a new dictionary

3:11 pm

3:11 pm

MollyL

Ah, the staff is having a hard time cutting ties, of course.

3:12 pm

periwinkle

3:12 pm

3:12 pm

periwinkle

what is an appeal letter. to tell everyone how appealing she is :)

3:12 pm

jmcnrick

well i am -- in spite of appearances in the chog -- an easy going and helpful boss well liked by my employees i am happy to say

3:13 pm

jmcnrick

an appeal letter is a letter appealing for you to send cash! lol

3:13 pm

periwinkle

oh, ok

3:13 pm

jmcnrick

you don't ask for cash and you don't get any

3:13 pm

3:26 pm

HarryHood

good to keep one's mind out of the gutter

3:26 pm

I keep forgetting that this dictionary leans Brit. To the best of my knowledge no one in the US uses that word and I don't think the Brits have since Victorian days. Live and learn.

3:32 pm

dianedecoder

Molly... are you still around ??

3:33 pm

jmcnrick

any one in babbleland spend much time at wikipedia?

3:33 pm

dianedecoder

There is another slang word for that, popular in the U.S. I guess, and whenever I'd try to enter it in Text Twist, it would disallow it and say banned word. .... learn something new every day !!

3:34 pm

dianedecoder

jmc, when I go to google, I often use the wikipedia links.

3:35 pm

Krista

Popping in to start the grid while dinner cooks. That word was fairly common while I was growing up (80's high school word).

3:35 pm

jmcnrick

never heard of it myself 0:-)

3:36 pm

dianedecoder

the "j" word?? me neither

3:36 pm

jmcnrick

i am looking for someone who has done some editing in wikipedia--was thinking about working on some of the articles connected with my organization

3:36 pm

Krista

Usually abbreviated...pronounced without the last letter. Ah, jmc..you were probably in better circles than I was. :)

3:36 pm

Krista

And diane.

3:37 pm

dianedecoder

some of them do need proofreading, as do many google sites.

3:37 pm

jmcnrick

haha no i am sure not krista i went to the school on the "wrong side" of the tracks

3:38 pm

rururocks

j 4 is common..

3:38 pm

Krista

That brought him out of the woodwork, lol.

3:38 pm

dianedecoder

can I say the word to which I was referring....?? Never knew it had slangy base connotations until playing Text Twist

3:39 pm

rururocks

it's not somethin

3:39 pm

dianedecoder

to me it only meant saucily courageous.... the word is "spunk"

3:40 pm

rururocks

it's not something you would verbally ejaculate however

3:40 pm

dianedecoder

LOL

3:41 pm

Krista

Ha, I knew that one. It's fairly common in England, I think, because Patrick thought Otis Spunkmeyer was a hilarious name (baked goods company).

3:41 pm

rururocks

bet that one has JMC sperming.. er I mean squirming..

3:41 pm

dianedecoder

we don't use that word as such here in Canadian slang ! My American friends said "where have you been hiding" ??

3:41 pm

Krista

Oh dear, ruru.

3:42 pm

dianedecoder

ruru is being spunky..... using only MY definition of the word !!!!!

3:43 pm

rururocks

just don't condom my behaviour

3:43 pm

dianedecoder

and true... lots of Brits played in my Text Twist chat room... they also knew !!

I've made 16 jars of raspberry jam and the last 8 just finished "pinging" me.... I can hear them from here have been counting... all sealed !!

4:54 pm

Ty for your confidence in me, lol. Ty for clues. Usually the quickest way for me to find a word is to ask for clue then I see it. :/

Dorens

4:58 pm

Krista

Oh, I get to ride up front! I saw you were reading that on Good Reads. Looks interesting. Did you like it?

4:58 pm

dianedecoder

I'm just about to start reading "The Help"... has anyone read it and enjoyed it ?

4:58 pm

Dorens

they are all coming to my house... i am providing the (less than fine) wine. primitivo, in fact, which goes beautifully with pizza. bruschetta pizza, the best around. only pizza worth going off my diet.

4:58 pm

dianedecoder

speaking of "wolves" :-)

4:58 pm

Dorens

i read it, didn't love it, but many people did

4:58 pm

Krista

LOVED it, Diane.

4:58 pm

MollyL

I LOVED "The Help" Diane.

4:59 pm

Krista

Movie comes out soon, you know.

4:59 pm

Dorens

yes, liked it very much krista... a very different type of "who-dunnit". we normally don't read that type in this group.

4:59 pm

MollyL

Dorens, what didn't you like about it?

5:00 pm

SeaSpray

Hello all...was lurking and saw "The Help", I loved it as well

5:00 pm

dianedecoder

great reviews... I'm sure I'll enjoy it as well.

5:00 pm

Krista

I have to read Olive Kitteridge for Sunday. The friend who lent me the book didn't like it. We'll see.

5:00 pm

Dorens

i have led a very different life... worked in east orange for 15 years, was closely involved with a man from there.. spent lots of time in homes of "domestic workers" and know very well how they feel about white folks. perhaps that is part of it. also, just didn't feel that it was all that well written, but will make a good movie

5:00 pm

Krista

I'll put it on my list, Dorens.

5:01 pm

Dorens

oh krista, that is the first person i have ever heard didn't love that book. thought it was one of the best ever!

5:01 pm

Dorens

also very much loved people of the book and everything else geraldine brooks every wrote, so am just beginining caleb's crossing, but don't think i'll like it as much as the others.

5:01 pm

Dorens

I did very much enjoy the last book i read though, state of wonder by ann patchett!

5:01 pm

Krista

Oh, good to hear that. I'll start it tonight.

5:02 pm

Our personal experiences certainly cast a shadow on everything, Dorens. Understanable.

hi red

5:05 pm

Dorens

molly, krista? i am curious

5:05 pm

redturtlehead

love all the flower icons, I am off...

5:06 pm

MollyL

Diane...mtjtoday@yahoo.com for the Jabberwocky

5:06 pm

Krista

Hm, I guess the sense of injustices addressed and exposed. We have all dealt with snooty people, regardless of race, so I liked that aspect. Also the historical context.

5:06 pm

Krista

Hey Red!

5:06 pm

redturtlehead

Hi, My Mom loved The Help. i have not read it yet.

5:07 pm

Krista

There were funny parts. I don't like reading dialect, though, but I understand why she used it.

5:07 pm

dianedecoder

got it Molly ! ... this is not one of our best but one that was fun to do ! and you said you'd like to hear those funny words set to music !

5:07 pm

Dorens

ok. i see. that does make sense. i'm not sure why i didn't like it that much, really, other than not liking the writing style that much, My friend's daughter actually lives in Jackson now, and she had fun with it for that reason

5:07 pm

MollyL

I am a sucker for a writer who builds good relationships in their story. I thought "The Help" had some great relationships built in it. The most charming was the relationship between Abeliene and May Mobley.

5:07 pm

Krista

Love your icon, red. Makes me long for the beach, though. Haven't been yet this summer.

5:08 pm

redturtlehead

been hot enough in your area for the beach Krista, at least as far as my Mom reports.

5:08 pm

Dorens

got to run, folks... people coming in twenty three minutes and i'm not exactly ready. (we were supposed to meet on the beach, but it's raining, and i offered my house. now regretting the offer. later!

5:08 pm

Krista

Bye Dorens! Have fun.

5:08 pm

MollyL

I'm also a writer by hobby, so I enjoyed the fact that Skeeter was a writer wannabe and Abeliene just wrote (her prayers) because it was in her nature.

5:09 pm

Krista

TOO hot for the beach for me. I'd have dried up not unlike a beached whale.

5:10 pm

Krista

It will be interesting to see how the movie is. They usually don't do books justice.

5:10 pm

redturtlehead

yes, I have not even been to the beach. but I have been using the pool regularly.

5:10 pm

Krista

How far are you?

5:11 pm

redturtlehead

about an hour.

5:11 pm

Krista

Nice.

5:12 pm

redturtlehead

Post surgery sitting to do things like drive, or sit kind of hurt after about 40 min, so I have been lazy....well not lazy, but not driving anywhere much.

5:12 pm

Krista

It must be very hard on you, being such an active person.

5:13 pm

redturtlehead

It was, but now I can use the ellipitical, and run in the pool and ride the bike and do almost everything in the weights room, the only thing is no running, so its OK...

5:14 pm

ChampFit

How long till running red?

5:14 pm

redturtlehead

2 months more of physical therapy.

5:15 pm

ChampFit

Ugh. Glad you're getting back to other things though!

5:15 pm

Krista

Oh, well that's good. I am not athletic but sitting too long drives me nuts (adhd). 4 months of bed rest when pregnant was awful.

5:15 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, it's been really strange.

5:16 pm

redturtlehead

I would think 4 mos of bedrest would be worse than this....I mean, I had to go and rehab the next day...

5:17 pm

redturtlehead

I'm just waiting for the pain to go away permanently...

5:18 pm

ChampFit

Hope it's soon!

5:18 pm

redturtlehead

Me too! The whole of PT and such has made me sort of a not nice person, but I do expect to be cleared to return to work this week...finally.

5:19 pm

ChampFit

That'll be great! Some return to normalcy...

5:19 pm

redturtlehead

yep. All good, plus, you know Tyson Gay?

5:20 pm

ChampFit

No...

5:20 pm

redturtlehead

the fastest man in American. He recently beat Usain Bolt in the 100 Meters...

5:20 pm

redturtlehead

Olympic star...

5:21 pm

Krista

it was hard, because I could only lie on my left side, and get up only to go to the bathroom...for 4 months...by the time I had the baby, I was so weak...PT made you into a grouch :)

5:21 pm

redturtlehead

He had the same surgery in July, so I am rehabbing along side him, but I think I scare him...

5:21 pm

ChampFit

oh yes...are you buddies? ;)

5:21 pm

ChampFit

why would you scare him?

5:21 pm

redturtlehead

He is extremely friendly, but I am extremely intimidated by him. I wonder which one of us will run first.

5:22 pm

redturtlehead

He is this super duper quiet guy. and I am sort of loud.

5:22 pm

ChampFit

I'm guessing he will. It's what he does!

5:22 pm

redturtlehead

Plus, I cried once in PT recently, and he sees that as what he has to look forward to.

5:22 pm

ChampFit

Yeah, me too. I can relate to the loudness!

5:22 pm

redturtlehead

I dunno, he is two months behind me...and Still on crutches, when I was at his point I was off the crutches...

5:23 pm

ChampFit

Well running's kinda his job...I imagine he has to be super careful to make sure he gets back to 100%

5:23 pm

redturtlehead

yes indeed, he had a much more well known surgeon as well...

5:25 pm

redturtlehead

I really admire him, because of the sportsmanship he showed at the Olympics when he lost to Usain Bolt, and the fact that he is like 1.5 feet shorter than him and still beat his pants off right before the surgery.

5:26 pm

lbdawger

clue for the tr8, plz?

anyway, must go get dinner...

The Barcolo Manufacturing Company of Buffalo, New York, started the American tradition of the office â€œcoffee break.â€ In 1902 they offered free coffee to their employees in order to boost morale, as well as a few free minutes in which to enjoy it.

That's pretty cool. What are his chances?

7:49 pm

crosshair

sounds like a bit of fun indeed

7:49 pm

unfortunately the applications were due today, and besides the written part required two 5x7 photos and a 1-minute video on DVD.

7:50 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for pr8-50? Thanks

7:51 pm

uusue2

So we got all that put together (after fighting with various bits of technology) and got on the road at 4 - only to run into terrible traffic on the Eisenhower (busy Chicago expressway) and didn't get to the museum until 6 (it closed at 5:30).

9:12 pm

Uneaixoise

9:12 pm

LisaG

9:12 pm

Shirlockc

9:12 pm

lbdawger

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

63 left but the worst is to come

9:13 pm

LisaG

crunchy vegetable used in mexican cooking

9:13 pm

lbdawger

jmc, gotta a lawyer question for you...

9:13 pm

LisaG

the j sounds like an h

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

a mexican root vegetable shirl

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

what lbd

9:13 pm

lbdawger

ji6/7 is a vegie

9:13 pm

jesdraggon

thank you lisa

9:13 pm

jmcnrick

or do you want to email me for privacy?

9:13 pm

LisaG

80 :)

9:13 pm

lbdawger

who is normally the executor of a will?

9:13 pm

dcseain

ty, je. i learned that root in vietnamese first, so i forget the spanish word sometimes

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

the person named in the will gets first dibs

9:14 pm

dcseain

whoever is so named, lbd

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

what is it in vietnamese?

9:14 pm

LisaG

i tried that veggie in a mexican restaurant dressed simply with lime juice, cilantro and hot sauce. It was amazing. i eat them all the time now.

9:14 pm

lbdawger

hmmm, and if one isn't named?

9:15 pm

dcseain

gu cang

9:15 pm

lbdawger

i loves that ji vegie

9:15 pm

jmcnrick

then whomever the court names but they usually look to the next of kin

9:15 pm

lbdawger

okay, so it wouldn't be the lawyer

9:15 pm

dcseain

in VA, persons named in the will would share responsibility if there is a written will.

9:16 pm

jmcnrick

well it can be the lawyer and many people like that system

9:16 pm

lbdawger

ugh, i'm hoping it's not the lawyer. he doesn't seem to think very highly of women, and he's a pompous ass too!

9:16 pm

jmcnrick

sometimes there is no one else and the court will appoint a random lawyer

9:17 pm

jmcnrick

well then a kin folk has to step up and say they will do it lbd

9:17 pm

jmcnrick

are you sure no one was named in the will?

9:17 pm

lbdawger

okay, so my sisters and I can tell the lawyer who it will be?

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

if no one was name, yes you can pretty much decide and the court will defer

9:18 pm

dcseain

here's a PDF with a good summary of Montana probate, including execution of wills: http://tinyurl.com/3l5bdjh

9:18 pm

lbdawger

From what I've had my sister read to me, I don't think anyone has been designated as the executor. Not since my mom died.

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

that person would file a petition in the court and the other sisters would sign papers agreeing to it

9:19 pm

jmcnrick

when did your mom die?

9:19 pm

lbdawger

thanks, DC. but my dad is in Colorado. I'll be there thursday, and will be going over all the legal stuff with my sisters before I have to face the lawyer. they both refuse to talk to him

9:19 pm

lbdawger

my mom died 11 years ago.

9:19 pm

dcseain

oh, fun.

9:19 pm

jmcnrick

so recently then I am sorry

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

WHAT!?!?!

9:20 pm

lbdawger

thanks, 2000 wasn't a good year.

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

it is possible that your mom owned everything jointly with your mother and therefore there was no probate

9:21 pm

dcseain

http://www.cobar.org/index.cfm/ID/2088
1 indicates that in CO, the court appoints the 'personal representative' to administer the will.

9:21 pm

jmcnrick

in the alternative they owned everything in trust to avoid probate (not actually a good idea but was very popular for a while) and therefore no probate

9:21 pm

Shirlockc

ca6/24?

9:21 pm

jmcnrick

PR is the same as an executor/executrix -- just not as sexist

9:21 pm

Uneaixoise

9:22 pm

lbdawger

ca + do re ** fa so l* ti do

9:22 pm

lbdawger

ahhhh, PR! i think then my oldest sister is the lucky one! she'll be so happy to hear that...NOT

9:23 pm

jmcnrick

she is the PR for your mom?

9:23 pm

Shirlockc

thx for the ca

9:23 pm

jmcnrick

she can defer to someone else

9:23 pm

dcseain

ty for CA, une

9:23 pm

Uneaixoise

yw

9:23 pm

lbdawger

I'll need to read the will, but I think it lists her as the PR for my Dad.

9:23 pm

LisaG

mmm...im not getting the ca 6 clue :(

9:24 pm

lbdawger

ca + soy paste but change the last letter to another vowel

9:24 pm

dcseain

lisa, see dawg's clue

9:24 pm

jmcnrick

you should look as see who is listed second and if the lawyer is any good th***

9:25 pm

jmcnrick

then if one of the other of you are listed the first sister can defer to the next one down the line

9:25 pm

jmcnrick

ty lbd

9:25 pm

lbdawger

oh great, back to the peck order...i'll still probably be the one to get the honours.

9:25 pm

jmcnrick

it sounds more difficult than it is

9:26 pm

jmcnrick

well choose the sister who is good with details

9:26 pm

lbdawger

I was hoping you'd be able to clarify things, and you did! (((JMC)))

9:26 pm

11:48 pm

stidmama

very cool, lady!

11:48 pm

herinfernallady

I love the Iea one as it is such wonderful ideas. Problem here is ikea is too damn expensive with some items like the awesome paper light

11:51 pm

stidmama

yes, some things are pretty expensive, but others are more affordable... I can only afford to shop there a couple times a year since I "save" so much money each time I go!

11:52 pm

herinfernallady

on the Hacker site someone coloured the paper lamp and it cost $80 USD but in aus it is $260 AUSD

11:53 pm

LuwandaHL

I did my office/craft room with stuff from ikea. It was a christmas present from hubby. the best part was, i went the week after christmas and got wonderful sale prices.

11:54 pm

stidmama

well done, Luwanda!

11:54 pm

herinfernallady

Awwwwwwww Luw that is great. We just got 3 As Is chairs for $35 instead of $55 for our dinning room. One of the chairs though is slightly off centre which we can't work out

11:55 pm

stidmama

I like the "as is" section, but of course when I go with a PURPOSE it never has what I actually need.

11:56 pm

herinfernallady

Stid we have items on our list at the moment

11:56 pm
