It's a great word though. So versatile... so many meanings, if you think about it.
1:53 am

jeez.. I just got out of church.. one step at a time okay?
1:53 am

Hey neil, your profile is all filled out again. So things are back to normal?

Things were always normal... or abnormally normal?

1:57 am

I am glad for you. I know that you are going and have gone through hell and back. Your life could be a great TV movie. It would probably be a tearjerker, and it would have a happy ending
1:58 am

1:58 am

Well, I sure am sorry I asked for the da**** clue. But Ruru had a good run with it. LOL I'll be back later.

2:04 am

neil, saw your email... yikes and yes. I will reply to you when my husband leaves to go back to the facility later on. I am on here avoiding things of course, but I think I can do that for a little while...
2:04 am
boatierra

G'night jili :)
2:04 am
negativeneil

Oh, ok mrp. I just read back in the chog and was surprised to see he's there?
2:04 am
negativeneil

How's that been going?
2:04 am
mrpresident

ruru, I am just impressed with what a great guy you are... I would read your book anytime
2:05 am
negativeneil

I plan to write a book one of these days.
2:05 am
mrpresident

I asked him to come home to try and talk to Maddison, our daughter, but she has bolted... so I sent her friend out to find her... this is going to be tough
2:05 am
negativeneil

You've written one, ruru?
2:05 am
rururocks

you'd write a f-ing good one neil
2:05 am
rururocks

don't push her mr p.. it will take time
2:05 am
negativeneil

Haha! How did you guess it would be peppered with expletives, ru?
2:06 am
mrpresident

neil, in a way, many of us babblers have written a book, on the chog! LOL
2:06 am
negativeneil

I'm sure, mrp!
2:06 am
rururocks

I'm a f-ing savant
2:06 am
negativeneil

Aww. Why do you think she bolted, mrp?
2:06 am
negativeneil

Yep. I think so, ru.
2:06 am
boatierra

I would love to write a book, if I had the discipline and talent.
2:07 am
mrpresident

indeed ruuster... he isn't moving in anyway to hurt the situation.... he is actually up in her room cleaning it! LOL
2:07 am
rururocks

me too.. I have a lot to say
2:07 am
negativeneil

It's good of him to want to help like that, mrp.
2:07 am
rururocks

that's good mr p.. there needs to be a lot of healing first... Madison will come around..
2:08 am
boatierra

Madison...what a great name :)
2:08 am
mrpresident

well, her demands are clear, he has to prove he is willing to do anything to help the family... and he is starting with her.
2:08 am
mrpresident

thanks boati, we like the name, picked it out before she was even a twinkle in the eye!
2:09 am
rururocks

he has to help himself first
2:09 am
negativeneil

Oh, I see... wow.
2:09 am
negativeneil

Yes, that's most important. He can't really help anyone else until he does that.
2:09 am
mrpresident

oh ruru, I know, but I don't know how to move forward with that one right now... I want him to do stuff for himself and be himself again
2:10 am
mrpresident

cleaning up his daughter's room is not really the priority, but it is making him feel good about himself... he WANTS to do it... wasn't asked to.
2:10 am
rururocks

his mother could use counseling so that she doesn't become a bigger codependent than she already is and make things worse
2:11 am
boatierra

Madison has been a very popular girls name over here ever since 'Splash' was released :)
2:11 am
boatierra

That's great that he's making efforts, making strides, both for himself and for the family.
2:11 am
mrpresident

I think that shows good changes are coming. Cause we were all darn tired of the 'argument'... nothing got done without a fight and we see now why.
2:12 am
negativeneil

Oh yeah, mrp?
2:12 am
negativeneil

That's progress then. Big progress.
2:12 am
rururocks

yes...I hope that's true
2:12 am
mrpresident

ruru, she wouldn't get help if I dragged her to a counsellor, she has to want to see the issue for what it is and stop placing blame everywhere else.
2:13 am
negativeneil

Positive changes start with recognizing what was going wrong... and admitting it.
2:13 am
negativeneil

Oh man. So many people do that, mrp. Can't accept fact and will do anything not to see it.
2:13 am
mrpresident

Maddison was also a president's name, and 'splash' was a great movie, and it was not used here at all.
2:14 am
negativeneil

Encountered some of that earlier.
2:14 am
rururocks

If someone from the facility could get through to her that she is adding to the struggle .. and she needs help to be able to help him.. that'd be the best
2:14 am
negativeneil

I agree, ruru.
2:14 am
negativeneil

She's probably only hear and believe it from someone professional.
2:14 am
mrpresident

neil, I get told what a 'good girl' I am when I say I am moving forward with him... but if I say something negative, I cop it bad
2:14 am
rururocks

thank god you didn't call her millard mr p
2:15 am
negativeneil

Ugh, mrp. Ok, there's still a looong way to go then.
2:15 am
mrpresident

what the heck is a milard? some type of retarded duck??
2:15 am
rururocks

you... need to take care of yourself and your kids mr p.. that's the bottom line..
2:15 am
negativeneil

Haha!
2:16 am
mrpresident

ruru, believe me, that is exactly what I am doing... i have seen what I need to do
2:16 am
rururocks

excellent
2:16 am
boatierra

Can I get a clue for the be 5/20 please?
2:16 am
negativeneil

I hate that all this is happening, mrp. It's not like you don't have enough stress and struggles already, geez.
2:16 am
o-o

Maddison, I expect, is dealing with a sense of abandonment.
2:16 am
rururocks

thankfully you have great friends that are true friends.. to support you since the rest of the family can be weird in this
2:17 am

2:18 am
rururocks

it's too big a picture for her right now BR.. she couldn't understand it now
2:19 am
rururocks

Madison that is..
2:19 am
boatierra

I was only looking at the e to the left of the b. No wonder I couldn't see it.
2:19 am
negativeneil

Oh, sent you that other email btw, mrp... you should have it by now.
2:19 am
negativeneil

You're welcome, boat. :)
2:20 am
boatierra

Clue for the last em 4/8 por favor?
2:21 am
rururocks

ostrich like creature boat
2:21 am
mrpresident

Maddison is feeling completely abandoned, but more so for me... she sees it from everyone else's perspective and can't understand how WE were left in this lurch... that is her thinking
2:21 am
negativeneil

mrp? I sent you another email.
2:21 am
rururocks

or e + three consonants .. a babblet
2:21 am
mrpresident

ok, will go check neil
2:22 am
rururocks

she has you mr p.. that is just as important
2:22 am
negativeneil

And yes, I'm sure she is in that respect... but you've all been abandoned, for the time being.
2:22 am
mrpresident

ok neil, thanks so much.
2:23 am
negativeneil

You're welcome, mrp.
2:23 am
boatierra

I have the em 4/5 and the em 4/6.
2:23 am
mrpresident

she has me and her brother ruuster, and that is all she wants for now. i will make sure we are fine and with that will come some clarity for her.
2:24 am
negativeneil

em4,8 boat.
2:24 am
negativeneil

em + 2 more consonants.
2:24 am
boatierra

That's the one I'm looking for. I need a clue for it.
2:24 am
o-o

Add grieving to a sense of abandonment and her feelings are in complete disarray. Maddison, despite blaming others, is likely very angry and wondering if she somehow is responsible for what her father is dealing with.
2:24 am
negativeneil

And it's a "plural" word.
2:25 am
boatierra

Ah, got it! Thanks neil :)
2:25 am
boatierra

Dictionary.com doesn't have it as a word. So I wonder what it is.
2:26 am
rururocks

it always looks like a swear word to me boat

boatierra, are any of the babblers you started with still around?
2:31 am
boatierra

Sprite I can recall.
2:32 am
boatierra

The gal the introduced me, I don't think she plays anymore.
2:33 am
boatierra

BR, your profile pic is a hoot!
2:34 am

But I don't notice any other players from when I started. At least not in the chog.

Oh parsec, that rings a bell.

I'm sure there are others that I'm totally forgetting. When I look at the rankings I see/recognize a lot of names that I don't see here on the chog anymore.

Marigold
2:44 am

I was thinking periwinkle and marigold, the two top points holders.
2:47 am
mrpresident

i luv peri!! she is one of the first babblers I met, she is a rock and just the sweetest person
2:47 am
boatierra

But I do see peri on here frequently just not marigold.
2:47 am
mrpresident

marigold hasn't chatted in forever!
2:48 am
mrpresident

sprite is around boati, but later on, in about 4 hours or so
2:48 am
boatierra

Oh ya. BR was just asking who I could remember.
2:49 am
mrpresident

I miss greywoulf... I really really miss him
2:49 am
boatierra

Ya, I wish my friends still played. It'd be nice.
2:50 am
mrpresident

and franmag... luv her, but she doesn't chat anymore :(, I do see her on other games I play on my iphone and we get to chat then. :)
2:50 am
boatierra

She went under the name Tolinya, it was her WoW character.
2:50 am
boatierra

OMG, franmag, I remember that name.
2:51 am
mrpresident

and then we had that interesting moment when a babbler that we all thought was 'family', interestingly introduced a 'japanese boy' to us... he had a terrible illness???
2:51 am
boatierra

What?
2:51 am
mrpresident

and that went very pearshaped when the japanese boy started using her account name whilst they were online together... many people fled then
2:52 am
boatierra

Sound like they were using the chog for something other than Babble?
2:52 am
mrpresident

some thought it was a massive insult, felt they had been taken by someone asking for help... when this babbler was allegedly on two accounts, being two different people
2:53 am
mrpresident

indeed boati, but this was a babbler we all knew for a long time! She disappeared after that... couldn't come back to face it.
2:53 am
boatierra

Weird.
2:54 am
mrpresident

it was sad really, cause we all became super wary... we were a tight family
2:54 am
mrpresident

and then arguments started, it was disappointing.
2:56 am
mrpresident

however, as we all said, you don't know who is on the internet, who is on the otherside of the chat... we can only trust and find out who they are gradually... I opened myself up to FB for babblers, and they have seen video of me, my family, my pics, my life was opened up to them... but then there are those that don't do that, and that is also fine...
sometimes you have to go with your gut feeling IMHO
2:57 am
boatierra

I agrees. I totally missed all of that. I chose not play for a long time because I didn't like the way the whole penalty box thing was being dealt out. People were being very persnickety/mean with it. So I left for a loooooong time. Kinda glad I missed all it. I much prefer Babble to be funny and the player to be helpful and funny :)
3:00 am
boatierra

Jeez, my typing is atrocious.
3:00 am
o-o

Many things have changed even in the time I have been here. I do not stay around much since I have a talent for getting trouble. I think the people here now are less considerate than when I started .... but no matter ... I just leave.
3:01 am
boatierra

Ya, if I feel things are getting icky, I just leave. That's the best thing.
3:08 am
negativeneil

Hi again mrp. :) I haven't seen anyone being persnickety/mean about the PB, boat... it's a joke getting sent there. I sent myself there when I accidentally type a grid word in the chat box. I think maybe you're taking it that way when nobody intends it seriously? I doubt anyone would have tried to be mean about it.
3:09 am
negativeneil

Uh, "send" myself there even. Too tired.
3:09 am
mrpresident

i did have a time where i left... but i have learnt to avoid certain people... and happily send myself to the PB just to P*** some of them off... who is anyone to say how we play the game??
3:10 am
boatierra

Oh this was several years ago. Not talking about recently. Nobody has been that was about recently thankfully.
3:10 am
boatierra

*way about it recently thankfully
3:10 am
mrpresident

neil!! I did it, on purpose a few years back, just to show what a friggin joke it was!! LOL
3:10 am
negativeneil

Oh I send myself there when I accidentally type a grid word in here, mrp... besides it's not bad in there. There's all kinds of goodies to be had!
3:10 am
negativeneil

Oh, ok.
3:10 am
mrpresident

and yes, I got crap, but so what! no one tells me how to play and they can FO otherwise
3:11 am
negativeneil

Oh there are some who seem to live for dishing out crap to others on here mrp. Even others who have never said a word to them yet... figure that one out? Must be pretty unhappy people to do that. I kinda pity them.
3:12 am
mrpresident

don't worry about anyone neil... just enjoy your game the way you want to.
3:13 am
mrpresident

boati, I don't know if you were around when the whole bullshite about 'no clues at all in the first hour after flip' came out... I hit the roof with that one!!
3:13 am
mrpresident

For goodness sake flip happens here at like, 4-5pm.... and I only have so much time to babble before life gets in the way!! LOL
3:14 am
boatierra

No, I was not. Jeez, what a load of crap. If you don't want to see the clues then turn the chog off. It's not that hard.
3:15 am
negativeneil

I don't, mrp... much as some may want me to. lol
3:15 am
negativeneil

And you have email btw.
3:16 am
negativeneil

Yeah, boat... that's nuts. It's so easy not to see the stats if you don't want to. What, do they have no self-control?
3:16 am
boatierra

Hey, how's the new place?
3:17 am
negativeneil

Oh, getting there.
3:17 am
boatierra

Are you still in the process of moving?
3:18 am
mrpresident

sorry, phone... bbs
3:21 am
negativeneil

It's clean and more or less organized anyway. But they started working on the roof early yesterday morning, would you believe? Seriously. On a SUNDAY. "Bang, bang, bang!" at 8am sharp. Ugh. All day today too... so I went downtown for the afternoon.
3:21 am
negativeneil

Aside from a couple pieces of furniture I have to collect and keys I have to drop off sometime this month, no. I'm moved in already.
3:22 am
boatierra

Sweet! (except for the Sunday roof noise, grr)
3:24 am
boatierra

Can I get a clue for the first st 6/18 please?
3:25 am

st + v**** are what you put flowers in.
3:25 am

3:26 am

Oops, haven't done that in a looooong time!!
3:26 am

Now that's one for the PB :)

3:28 am

Uh oh... the dreaded PB! At least there are TimTams there though... whatever the heck those are? I'm assuming they're delicious though? :)
3:28 am
boatierra

They're like chocolate dipped bread sticks?
3:29 am
boatierra

Or are those Yan-Yam?
3:29 am
negativeneil

Oh are they?
3:30 am
mrpresident

no no no.... heavenly biscuit with magical properties! chocolate heaven really
3:30 am

3:33 am
mrpresident

Hi ruby.
3:37 am
boatierra

Apparently Pepperidge Farm carries a line of Tim Tams.
3:37 am
negativeneil

That would be a real tease, mrp... it would leave you just wanting more!
3:37 am
negativeneil

They do, boatierra? Wow. I must get some.
3:38 am
negativeneil

Oh mrp? And boat? Ask Laura about me and cookies sometime.
3:39 am
boatierra

Mmmm, I just looked on World Market's site and they do not carry them.
3:39 am
boatierra

Will do Neil :)
3:39 am
rubyfoo

every now and then I mess up and type, usually too fast, a bunch of small words in the chog. Fortunately, they are usually words everybody already has. I'm just no good at multi-tasking!
3:39 am
mrpresident

Pepperidge Farm do, but they are not Arnotts TimTams, they are a fake!!
3:40 am
rubyfoo

and almost everybody is kind about it -- almost....
3:40 am
boatierra

That's what the site that I found was saying, that they are not the read deal.
3:41 am
rubyfoo

how I miss Pepperidge Farm products! Even the white bread! When I go back to the US, I carry an empty suitcase and fill it with stuff I can't buy here
3:41 am
negativeneil

There's kind of a running joke about me and cookies. But just don't ask my brother about it. Oh no. Ask Laura instead!
3:41 am
boatierra

So far I've found like three different site as to where to buy Arnott
3:42 am
boatierra

Arnott's Tim Tams. Very popular!
3:42 am
negativeneil

Oh? Are only Arnotts' the real deal mrp?
3:42 am
negativeneil

You mean here, boat?
3:42 am
boatierra

Dare I ask, are you a "cookie monster"?
3:43 am

3:48 am
mrpresident

3:48 am
herinfernallady

3:49 am
mrpresident

vegemite is shoe polish
3:49 am
negativeneil

3:49 am
boatierra

Looks like the third site has them listed at 3.95 a package, before shipping.
3:49 am
rubyfoo

all these exotic foods.... lol
3:49 am
sprite

vegetarian salty paste like Marmite
3:49 am
negativeneil

Haha, mrp... don't think so!
3:49 am
rubyfoo

nourishing? or just salty?
3:50 am
negativeneil

Yeah! So I was right for once. [I'm Left otherwise].
3:50 am
herinfernallady

Nothing like marmite. You serious Mr pres?
3:50 am

3:50 am
negativeneil

It's not like Marmite?
3:50 am
herinfernallady

MR Pres the boy say Get out of my country
3:50 am
boatierra

I know that Cost Plus World Market (at least when I worked there in 2000) used to carry both Veg and Marmite.
3:50 am
herinfernallady

Neil it is but tastes different
3:50 am
mrpresident

neil, I do kid, but it looks like shoe polish, and smells like salty brewers yeast/old beer.... and must be used sparingly
3:50 am
sprite

yep but vegetarian
3:50 am
mrpresident

Marmite is disgusting!
3:51 am
sprite

some people love it though
3:51 am
negativeneil

Haha, yep. Sounds just like Marmite... which I like, but as you say must be used sparingly. I spread it on my toast very thinly.
3:51 am
negativeneil

Uh, I like Marmite. Does that make me disgusting?
3:51 am
herinfernallady

Sprite there is Vegimite that is Kosher too. It has a K on it
3:51 am
negativeneil

When I went to the UK a couple of times, I brought back jars of it.

Mr Pres sparingly? I slab it on
3:51 am

3:51 am

3:52 am
herinfernallady

Yep

sprite

some love it better, neil
3:52 am

Yes, ruby. I'm Jewish.
3:52 am
mrpresident

neil, you aren't disgusting, just when you compare vegemite to marmite, it is disgusting
3:52 am
sprite

yeah. I like peanut butter with sambal...
3:52 am
negativeneil

3:53 am
negativeneil

I love peanut butter.
3:53 am

Oh and for anyone who wants it, I've posted a non-flour chocolate cake recipe in my profile :) I've made it several times. It's very good :)
3:53 am

Non-flour? How does that work? [checking]
3:54 am

I never had peanut butter or white bread as a child but when I left home (to get married at 19), I pigged out on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on Wonder Bread

I want him to stay, but it isn't the right time yet... he hasn't embraced his 'honesty' factor yet

Uh, yeah. I'd probably use the broom.
4:02 am

I would. But then again, I am not half as nice as rubyfoo.
4:02 am
rubyfoo

no no, it's just his footfalls that I hear. I am firmly ensconced in my studio

Oh, after I had my say.
4:16 am

great. You can do without such nutters
4:17 am

After I laughed at him for his lame trolling abilities, I gave him a *slow clap* and told him he's just the kind who gives our Marines a bad rep. Then I blocked him.
4:17 am
sprite

yeah
4:18 am
negativeneil

But your assessment? Yeah. I was thinking that was a strong possibility myself. And my brother thought so too.
4:19 am

it is very likely. No need to go all hostile unless you feel threatened.
4:19 am

Oh that doesn't stop some, sprite. Learned that lately just on here.

if they do, they feel threatened in some way
4:21 am
negativeneil

Even when there's no reason to... it's amazing.
4:21 am
sprite

I think there is always a reason. But usually it is inside ourselves and not something we like to be aware of.
4:22 am
negativeneil

Oh probably. Which is why I usually just shake my head and feel sorry for them. And employ block if it's an option... that works.
4:23 am
sprite

lol yes. And if it is myself who feels hostile, I try to check why I feel threatened.
4:24 am
mrpresident

I am so exhausted after that!! good lord

I can't say I really feel that way too often... it takes a very serious, strong reason for that to happen.

Almost as bad as him doing "Bohemian Rhapsody" there is also a cover of "She Blinded Me With Science" on "Seeking Major Tom". Listen to this stuff at your own risk. I think the CD should come with a demise of sanity warning disclaimer.

There will be another song for me- for I will sing it.
7:04 am
Kaplan the Magne

Spring was never waiting for us, girl
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages and were pressed,
In love's hot, fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants

CHORUS
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!

I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground around your knees
The birds, like tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing checkers by the trees

CHORUS



There will be another song for me
For I will sing it
There will be another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
You'll still be the one.

I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passion flow like rivers through the sky.
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you
And wondering why.

Chicago or even "Classical Gas" by Mason Williams>

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!
Oh, no
No, no
Oh NO!! (upon which Harris suffers an irreversible gender change)

Yes, my bunnies have always been litter box trained and they learn quickly. Restrict them to a cage initially and place a box with paper-based litter (not clay stuff nor aromatic wood chips!) and they do their stuff in one place, usually a corner.

And, if there's an accident, at least it's easy to pick up.

Baby bunnies are so damn cute. But when those 2 hit puberty within the next few months they will fight. Have the family read www.rabbit.org re bonding rabbits. It is a challenge.

They should absolutely be neutered--less aggression. And male bunnies can spray urine soneutering st5 that.

we've had two male chows over the years, neither one neutered and both as gentle as can be. Neither one ever showed any interest in girls....too much inbreeding?

8:56 am

ruby, I know you're American, but I think it's the European influence. Vets here expect you to neuter if you're not intending to breed or show. And, it's more expensive to license an unneutered dog
8:56 am
Riverdance

Aaron, it's like the sttate, but different last letter

Max isn't licensed and neither was Rufus, we just had to prove that they had rabies shots when we imported them

8:57 am
rubyfoo

I think that chows must be different from other breeds in that the females are much more aggressive and are better watch dogs. The males just want to be admired
8:57 am
bichon

ruby, if you don't license here and they are caught by animal control, you pay a big fine to retrieve them
8:58 am
rubyfoo

the dog that attacked DH was never even put down, so you can imagine how lax the laws are here!
8:58 am

Max has never been off the property and we've had him almost 8 years. When he needs a vet, he gets a house call

I think if a dog bites a person, they are quarantined. and, if there's a lawsuit, your insurance premium skyrockets. Some insurance companies won't write a policy if there is a certain breed in the home. And, I think chows are one of those breeds
8:59 am

have small, curly-haired dogs. Grooming issues are our biggest problem with chows
9:00 am

A house call by the Vet. Never heard of that. But, what do I know.

9:01 am

the dog that attacked my husband was quarantined for 2 weeks, kept in dog jail for another week and then released to his owners with various provisos about when and where to walk him, keeping him muzzled, etc., but none of it was enforced
9:01 am
bichon

Bichons need lots of grooming. They go to a groomer every 8 weeks and I brush them about once a week on the average. I also brush their teeth.
9:01 am
bichon

I think a lawsuit can enforce a lot of rules
9:01 am

9:02 am
rubyfoo

we filed a criminal complaint, the owner paid the initial expenses but it just went to court yesterday to see if we can get damages. My poor husband deserves something, as it has been all downhill for him, since the attack.
9:02 am
bichon

After they're groomed, there's nothing really to brush. But by 3-4 weeks, I need to. If they get matted, the groomer is not happy with me
9:03 am
bichon

The US is a litigious place. You'd win big here
9:03 am

Ruby looks gorgeous, but her tail is matted and she's greasy underneath.

how do the tile stats work
9:09 am

aaron each tile is worth a certain numer. The f is worth 4 points. You add up the points of your word and multiply them by 1 for a 4 letter word, 2 for a 5 letter word, etc
9:09 am
bichon

try looking at the help page
9:10 am

yes but say u were looking for the last t word, how would you know how many letters it is

1:05 pm

our 2 kitties are also rescue critters
1:05 pm
bichon

my current bichons are too. Just love them so much
1:05 pm
sadie52

awww rescue is such a good place to get critters from
1:06 pm
sadie52

yep thats all they are looking for is love ...well ok and food lol
1:06 pm
crosshair

it is,and such a variety! last time i was in there,there was the most amazing 3 year old male russian blue waiting for a forever home
1:07 pm
sadie52

ohhhh pretty cat
1:07 pm
bichon

My first two were not rescues, the third was [and he came with lots of baggage]. These two were strays and they are neverous but loving
1:07 pm
sadie52

i used to have a tortie (reverse calico)
1:07 pm
crosshair

huge head on hom..told the wife if we break down and get him,i want to call him smirnoff
1:08 pm
crosshair

him
1:08 pm
sadie52

sometimes the rescues do have alot of baggage alot of that is due to their treatment prior to rescue
1:08 pm
sadie52

ours were kept in cages and used for breeding
1:08 pm
crosshair

one of our rescue kitties you canot yell at,she will just shut down
1:08 pm
sadie52

smirnoff lol i like that name
1:09 pm
bichon

Yes, the current two were found as strays and they are afraid of other dogs they see on walks. They are also fearful of riding in the can
1:09 pm
bichon

*car
1:09 pm
sadie52

yes these had their quirks also lots of love and patience seems to have helped
1:10 pm
sadie52

sometimes they remember abuse always one of these is scared to death of fly swatters of all things
1:10 pm
bichon

one of them is afraid of my husband, but only in the kitchen
1:10 pm
sadie52

wow wonder what happened to that pup
1:10 pm
crosshair

lol@ quirks..our 2 year old black male shorthair kitty grooms my beard while i try to sleep:)
1:11 pm
sadie52

hahahahaha crosshair
1:11 pm

i wake up and his nose is right in there and he is licking away trying to set a part in my beard hair
1:11 pm
bichon

We have absolutely no idea. Animal control
1:11 pm
sadie52

my tortie was one of three and always the leader of the trouble they used to get into and they did get into alot of trouble.
1:12 pm
sadie52

lol cross
1:12 pm
sadie52

thats a shame bichon
1:12 pm
sadie52

they do have fears
1:12 pm
crosshair

torties are pretty kitties
1:12 pm
sadie52

missy and sheila are afraid of everyone but us
1:12 pm
sadie52

yea they are crosshair
1:12 pm
bichon

Well they were given good care at the shelter and the Vet and then put in a foster home run by the rescue organization
1:13 pm
sadie52

its usually the care before shelter that has caused their fears i think
1:14 pm
bichon

We
1:14 pm
crosshair

in toronto they have set a new policy for this year at least,you cannot buy a dog or a cat from a pet store,only reputable breeders,or rescue shelters etc
1:14 pm
bichon

We're hoping they will get over their fears of other dogs. It's been around 9 months since we got them.
1:14 pm
crosshair

they want to find homes for all the pund animals and resuce animals first
1:15 pm
bichon

that is good crossy. Pet stores are just outlets for puppy mills
1:15 pm
sadie52

hmmm a good idea
1:15 pm
crosshair

yup,,no dogs or cats at pet stores...period
1:15 pm
sadie52

yes they are bichon
1:15 pm
sadie52

thats where ours came from was puppy mills
1:15 pm
bichon

I see people spending a lot of money at pet stores for animals with very poor backgrounds
1:16 pm
crosshair

we do not have a large mill problem,but this will kill off what is still out there
1:16 pm
bichon

The Bichon rescue organization does place puppy mill rescues, but only in homes with no young children and only in a home where there is a socialized dog
1:16 pm
sadie52

yea i do also and it breaks my heart to see some of those pups and kittens and know where they came from
1:16 pm
bichon

The US has a large puppy mill problem
1:17 pm
crosshair

i have heard that
1:17 pm
sadie52

its nice to have rescues and know we are giving them what they deserve a good home and they are totaly spoiled lol
1:17 pm
sadie52

yes it does bichon
1:17 pm
crosshair

it is sadie,it is a win/win situation
1:17 pm
sadie52

yeppers
1:17 pm
bichon

Unfortunately, CT has passed a law so rescue groups can't go to places in the country with dogs at kill shelters and bring them to CT. These rescues have to get very expensive and frequent checks at the vet. This makes the vet rich
1:19 pm
sadie52

oh yea it does im sure vets love this
1:20 pm
sadie52

kinda fries ya to think they are just making life harder for rescues and the animals thy want to help
1:21 pm
bichon

don't know why CT went along with this. It's a lose/lose situation
1:21 pm
sadie52

yep it is
1:22 pm
crosshair

our 2 local vets donate thier skills to the shelter and charge for materials only
1:22 pm
crosshair

and our shelter is a no kill one,we foster out all animals when possible
1:23 pm
sadie52

thats very nice of them
1:23 pm
crosshair

we fostered 2 kitties just last month but then they found a forever home for both
1:23 pm
bichon

Our vets do volunteer too, but I don't see the purpose of the law. It only serves to discourage rescue organizations
1:23 pm
bichon

ttyl bye nice meeting you sadie

smaller dictionary than I'm used to. I play sowpods scrabble, so there were a lot of 'huh?' moments when words like aitu wouldn't go through.

thanx, saanichet. do you have one i don't already have? hehe :)
3:14 pm

Hello Luwanda, I'll try! (Pl. that last one)
3:15 pm
lbdawger

babble uses the enable dictionary. a truly horrible dictionary!
3:16 pm
lbdawger

hi Luw
3:16 pm
saanichcat

I don't like it because of the ethnic slur words. That bugs me.
3:17 pm
crosshair

the babble enable dictionary and all other regular ones are distant relatives at best
3:17 pm
lbdawger

me too, saanich. and the made up words as well as the proper nouns it allows, inconsistencies too
3:18 pm
saanichcat

it still won't allow "tech"
3:19 pm
saanichcat

I think it is Sprite who is compiking a words not wanted list
3:19 pm
lbdawger

enable needs to be updated
3:19 pm
saanichcat

*compiling (I have rotten eyesight!)
3:20 pm
saanichcat

They seem to have updated by removing a lot of the old biblical useage except for a few, "saith" comes to mind
3:21 pm
lbdawger

i think the word generator that Dr. G uses probably doesn't choose that many.
3:22 pm
Xoviat

saith is also a fish. Odd that they'd remove that.
3:23 pm
saanichcat

Word people will never agree! The Official Scrabble Dictionary is so crazy I won't play unless we use Oxford Canadian/American
3:24 pm
saanichcat

Actaull "saith" is still there, but many others are not. Sorry for confudion
3:24 pm
Xoviat

There are some 30K more words in sowpods. They'll be even more of a difference next year.
3:25 pm
saanichcat

I have never used sowpods. Do you find it useful?
3:28 pm
Xoviat

Useful? It's the valid words I require to play scrabble competitively. I'd call it more 'hard work' than useful. I'm sure there's a couple of obsessive people here who understand this :)
3:29 pm
saanichcat

Oh, yes indeed Xov
3:32 pm
lbdawger

i guess there are some folks who really get competitive with their games. not me.
3:34 pm
Xoviat

Yeah, it starts off as picking up a few new words here and there, then there's deliberate study of new words. Before you know it, you're reading the paper, and pulling anagrams out of what you're reading. Scrabble's definitely not for someone with OCD tendencies.

MollyL

I agree LBD. I see no point in learning "new words" that I can't use. I'm not so heavily invested in word games that it would be a plus for me.
4:00 pm
uusue2

another problem with learning new words in a game like babble is that you have to make a real effort to find a definition. I get several word-of-the-day lists that occasionally have words I don't know - they come with interesting tidbits about the origin and use of the words, which I enjoy.
4:02 pm
MollyL

I find it annoying that there are words in these grids with "no definition listed" when you click on the definition link.
4:03 pm
uusue2

me too! although if I really want to know I will google the word; I think I've always found some kind of definition that way.
4:09 pm

i used to look up all the words i didn't know, but not any more. i look up the ones that seem the most interesting or most bizarre now.

8:08 pm
herinfernallady

I was at my friends house and she lives on a farm. Her cat often kills mice. She did it when I was there feeding the animals as they were on holidays and the cat got a mouse. I screamed and nearly cried that kitty was killing the poor mouse
8:08 pm
gapeach

Gees, herin, I just glad it was a toy snake. The other night on the local news....a woman had awoke to find a snake in her bed, under the covers......I wouldn't have had to go to the bathroom....the animal control came out and found 3 more in her bedroom.....I'd be "already gone".

Were they posionous snakes?

The reason I haven't ever moved further south (even though I like a warmer climate) is that when I tell DH I want to move; he reminds me that there are bigger bugs down south! And I'll add snakes to that too now!

When I was a little girl. We were runnig in and out of my grandparents's screen door one summer day. I barely remember going up to my mom and telling her there was a snake behind the TV. It was a 3-4 ft black snake. The never discovered how it go in the house.

They didn't say, herin. But to me, they bring back childhood memories of my grandmother's farm and a large black dog killing a large snake.....my mother went into herysterics ( I know that is not how to spell that word) and of course, I followed her example.
8:14 pm

8:16 pm
LuwandaHL

There are supposed to be some poisonous snakes in Indiana but they are few and far between. The cold winters used to keep the population down. There were very few north of the Ohio River but warmer climate had increased thier reign north.
8:17 pm

Oh, my dear! Did they dispose of them or just let them go?

There was no where for the poor snakes to go. It was all flooded

8:19 pm

I wandered the woods and the creeks my whole life and have never come upon a venomous snake in Indiana. I had a garter snake crawl across my foot in my flower garden last year. I definitely startled me. I let out a yell and my neighbor came running. Hubby didn't even react. He knows I'm not that scared of them just surprised.
8:20 pm

I remember my Grandmother telling me about living in Africa and having a bed full of bugs
8:21 pm

We moved to GA from KY in 1977....had a very large back yard and my first summer here there were up to 6 snakes crawling across my back deck in one day....now, the Animal Control people and I were on a first name basis. I've always had dogs and my greatest fear was them getting bitten. I had to talk with myself and wonder if I would grab the thing if it wrapped itself around one of them and I finally concluded that I would. I hope I never have to prove that.
8:23 pm

She shrieked and nearly wet herself. if was so funny!

I din't blink. Did you? Oh, if you did you're a stone angel now and so can't answer me.

Funny thing is I don't think anyone in that audience blinked, except for the man who coughed, even though we all knew is was pure bunkum.

it should happen in 50 minutes here Jacula
11:11 pm

Nope, another hour to go yet. MrP will get it down to a tee when she can. Thanks anyway! xx
11:12 pm
Bugsaw

I didn't know mr p was doing it now.
11:15 pm
Jacula

Yes, she is Bug, 'cos Lickety's not well right now.
11:16 pm
Bugsaw

I am not sure she is very well either. I wish things could be easier for them both.
11:17 pm
Jacula

I'd say that I never use the list, but that's not true, because I do sometimes consult it for my last few words. I also know many people rely on the lickety list that lets them enter words.
11:17 pm
Jacula

Bug - no, she isn't the best she could be, but she's trying her very best.
11:21 pm
Jacula

I also think that all this being 'honest' in public and trying to help others thing should just stop and that families should just go off line and get themselvesback together again, without feeling they need to say or help .
11:24 pm
Bugsaw

LOL perhaps you have noticed that I have not been here much the last couple of months for the very reason you just said!
11:25 pm
Jacula

Bug - yes and same here.
11:25 pm
Bugsaw

I hope things settle for you then Jac. Sometimes I just play because finding words is the only thing I can control
11:26 pm
Bugsaw

and sometimes I don't play because it just seems like another chore
11:26 pm
Jacula

And, to stop you saying, in case you were tempted to, I'm going off line now. (HUGS)x

hi bug... i am sure. i get comfort out of helping
11:32 pm
Bugsaw

I try to help too but I meant I don't always tell people what is going on in the chog. I prefer email
11:32 pm

I could never finish grids without your help
11:33 pm
jillibus

bugs -- you haven't been here so maybe you're not aware of what has been happening with mrp
11:33 pm
mrpresident

I understand that bugs... emails are thick and fast at the moment, and not all of them helpful, but am happy with the babble friends I have cause they have helped me in ways that I never believed... given me back my confidence in humanity and charity.
When all is better here, I will be changing my outlook on helping people.
11:35 pm

jilli, don't worry too much about it... ***hugs*** and each to their own... is nice to be here :)

mrp, I've avoided emailing you because I figured you'd be snowed under, but you know you're in my thoughts all the time.

That list is indispensable to me -- others try to hlep when it doesn't appear but there's nothing like it.

luv to you jilli, I know... today is such a better day for me! I get my husband back soon! :)) And have been given a chance to forgive and experience forgiveness... not many people can say that!

jilli, the chog is a clue paradise when the list is down! LOL!!
11:39 pm

oh, that's great news, mrp!

I like the clueage, it is nice to have help on that level too cause you get to know people that way... like a nice introduction.
11:40 pm

oh yes -- the chog full of hints and the lists other make are super helpful too.
11:40 pm
Bugsaw

mr p I hope you will remember that if you miss posting the clues, you are really giving a gift to the Babblers because we do try to take care of each other too. SOme people who are quick at grids are wonderful about posting the stats for the rest of us slower ones.
