It's been a very long day here - hubby is going to have to have surgery on his knee to repair cartilage ... praying he is better by wedding

3:03 am

grannyrose

oh, dee, when is he scheduled for surgery?

3:03 am

VolleymomDee

we withdrew our offers on the house we thot we wanted - too many inspection issues that sellers will not give us credit to fix...

3:03 am

VolleymomDee

so thankful Thanksgiving is coming up

3:03 am

VolleymomDee

he goes for MRI on this friday; then back to dr on 11/29 and they'll schedule him asap (doc knows about wedding)

3:04 am

grannyrose

prayers for a very positive outcome, dee.

3:04 am

VolleymomDee

today he said there shouldn't be any prob about walking down steps or aisle, but he wasn't 100% sure about dancing... so we'll see

3:04 am

flosey

great that the doc knows, hope hubby well be able to walk his daughter up the aisle

3:04 am

dart001

usually inspections don't turn up everything...any issues behind walls, etc might show later...especially if a lot of other issues were picked up

3:05 am

VolleymomDee

since it just started 3 weeks ago, and no major arthritis showed on prelim xray... hoping all will be ok

3:05 am

grannyrose

lol, just sit him on a chair with wheels, and whirl him around

3:05 am

Babble stats/clues list:

3:05 am

VolleymomDee

you are correct dart, so we are glad to withdraw, but sad simultaneously...

3:05 am

flosey

Dee, hubby was just out of cancer surgery and would have been prepared to have daughter walk him down in wheelchair if necessary!!

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

we'll wait and relist and start process again in Feb... less pressure on hubby now that this needs to be done

3:06 am

grannyrose

hey neil, how you going, buddy?

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

lol granny for sure!

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

3:06 am

flosey

hi Neil, have you been lurking all this time?

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

definitely will give him incentive to do therapy

3:06 am

negativeneil

Hi grannyrose... pretty good thanks. :) And you?

3:06 am

negativeneil

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

Just call me Lurkbert.

3:07 am

We've been realistic, so sad to lose that floor plan.

3:07 am

grannyrose

neil, oxycodone is a wonderful drug(taken correctly, of course)

3:07 am

VolleymomDee

hi neil

3:07 am

VolleymomDee

but something better will come I'm sure

3:07 am

dart001

ever watch HGTV and Holme's inspection?

3:08 am

negativeneil

Is it, grannyrose?

3:08 am

VolleymomDee

yes!! This inspector was VERY thorough like that. He knows Dan's aunt, so he spent another hour going over everything with hubby personally...

3:08 am

negativeneil

Hi Dee.

3:08 am

VolleymomDee

I think that's why we are both okay to walk away.

3:09 am

VolleymomDee

Want to follow proper procedures though, so we get back all of our earnest money.

3:09 am

dart001

it helps you look for the things that might be problems later...and thing to ask the inspector about

3:09 am

grannyrose

lol, neil. have had a cramp since last sunday....just another aspect of fibromyalgia. oxycodone is the only drug which relieves the pain. cramp is right down on the bone in my right calf

3:09 am

VolleymomDee

absolutely! I would NEVER buy a house without a good inspection.

3:10 am

dart001

so many of the people on that show paid for such poor inspections...feel sorry for them

3:10 am

VolleymomDee

We had 3 - a bug guy, a heating cooling guy, and the regular inspector...ticks me off we paid for all that sh... and had to walk, but it was money well spent

3:10 am

negativeneil

Ouch, grannyrose. Hope that gets better soon!

3:10 am

VolleymomDee

totally!

3:10 am

negativeneil

That sounds very painful. :(

3:11 am

VolleymomDee

3:13 am

dart001

i like the list for a backup...but find it kinda fun to try without

3:13 am

grannyrose

quinine doesn't do very much, magnesium seems to be the only thing which works. am currently taking anatrin( only available from USA)

3:13 am

VolleymomDee

Hi, just wanted to share what seems to have made a dif. for me.

3:17 am

Marmar

My Doc suggested by my symptoms that I may have fibro. I did a lot of research and consulted with my great doc and have experienced LOTS of relief.

3:17 am

flosey

must get to bed, be back tomorrow, goodnight all

3:17 am

grannyrose

nite dee

3:18 am

grannyrose

nite flosey, sleep well, you 2. and hello marmar

3:18 am

Marmar

Short list: cut out pork meat, cut out sugar as much as possible, 4-5 cups green tea daily with ginger, and MBT shoes and a bit more movement....I suffer no more symptoms....just a tip.

3:19 am

grannyrose

thanx, marmar. MBT shoes???

3:19 am

Marmar

Google them. They are not so cute, look like a rocking chair shoe. But they are GREAT!

3:21 am

grannyrose

hmmmm....will do that marmar. my problem is that recently(7 months ago) came off my meds for FM in order to take champix, to help me stop smoking. successful...but my FM went manic.

3:22 am

Marmar

My upper legs, which when I had pain had totally lost all tone and evidence of muscles, are like rocks now. I used to cry when I came to a flight of stairs, pain so bad. Now I run up stairs....

3:22 am

Marmar

Fibro is a mean condition, isn't it?

3:22 am

negativeneil

I already don't eat pork. [Jewish]

3:23 am

Marmar

Neil, my doctor says everyone should give up pork, I agree now. I feel so much better.

3:23 am

negativeneil

Wow, Marmar... that's an amazing difference.

3:23 am

grannyrose

with the anatrin, just about back under control in just 4 weeks. *sigh* FM is just the meanest, i think...

3:23 am

negativeneil

There's a reason it's not kosher, yes.

3:24 am

negativeneil

I cut out sugar recently... I use stevia now. Figured I didn't need all those calories I was drinking in my coffee and tea.

3:24 am

grannyrose

marmar, not jewish, just can't afford to eat pork....hang on...that includes bacon, ham...right? hmmm...let me think this out again

3:24 am

negativeneil

Yep, all those.

3:24 am

negativeneil

But I've never had them so don't miss them.

3:24 am

Marmar

Oh, stevia, I've used it but find it hard to bake and cook with it. Have not tried enough I guess. It is really amazing.

3:25 am

negativeneil

I've smelled pork cooking in the homes of goyim and yuck... the smell of it is nauseating to me.

3:26 am

negativeneil

We have sucralose here, Marmar... under the brand name "Splenda". You can bake and cook with it fine. It's non-caloric and made from sugar!

3:26 am

grannyrose

neil with you on stevia....and have cut out fats to the point that fish and chips from a shop(already cooked) makes me so ill, i can't work for 3 days.

3:26 am

Marmar

Oh, I know granny, I am guilty of using a bit of bacon for flavor in sauces and such. The germans each SO much pork too, hard to avoid here.

3:26 am

negativeneil

I have some of that now too.

3:26 am

broll

Marmar, how much ginger do you put in the tea? Powder or root?

3:26 am

negativeneil

Yeah, grannyrose. I've cut way down on fats too.

3:26 am

negativeneil

I can put on a bit of a gut if I'm not careful... I don't seem to gain weight anywhere else though.

3:27 am

negativeneil

Yes Marmar, I know they do.

3:27 am

Marmar

I cut a few very thin slices from the root. My cousin grates the root into hot water and drinks pure ginger tea several times a day.

3:27 am

grannyrose

marmar, stevia comes in a granulated form, similar to splenda...

3:27 am

negativeneil

I have it in liquid form too.

3:27 am

negativeneil

Drops.

3:28 am

broll

Thanks. I'm ok, but my cousin really suffers with it. Will pass it on. Thanks again.

3:28 am

grannyrose

np's broll

3:29 am

grannyrose

himself had no idea of what i was going thru, until i googled FM and showed him a list of symptoms.

3:29 am

Marmar

I'll have to go to the health food store and check out the granular stevia. I heard that the intensive sweetness makes it hard to keep the integrity of the recipe since you don't need as much mass of stevia as sugar, it messes up consistancy and you have to compensate with .... flour maybe....don#t know.

3:30 am

Marmar

curezone.com is a GREAT self-health website, lots of uses and forums that are very helpful.

3:30 am

negativeneil

I don't know anything about that, Marmar. I don't do any baking.

3:30 am

grannyrose

oh, okay, marmar...once i have a functioning kitchen, i'll keep you in touch with my experiments

3:31 am

Marmar

I used to say "I love to bake" but the truth is, I love to eat things that are baked....too much of the good stuff...not healthy.

3:31 am

grannyrose

lol, marmar, don't we all.

3:31 am

negativeneil

Yeah, baked goods are delish.

3:32 am

negativeneil

Who doesn't love a nice pie?

3:32 am

Marmar

ahhhh, pie! I love pie.

3:32 am

grannyrose

well, my babble friends, ti4 for me to get outta here, dinner to prepare....and eat*grin* happy babbling

3:33 am

negativeneil

Enjoy and take care, grannyrose.

3:33 am

Marmar

I've overstayed my limit here too, but I do enjoy visiting with you all. Thanks for the chat.

3:33 am

grannyrose

*poof*

3:33 am

Marmar

Bye y'all.

3:33 am

negativeneil

Yep. Time I was in bed... 1:33 am here.

We try.

5:04 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Molly, or is it very late night with you?

5:04 am

sprite

hiya Molly :D We share great colours today, I see. Haz is a much better cluer than I, I usually have to break up the words.

5:05 am

Haz1558

Different clues work for different people, no harm in trying all sorts of methods.

5:06 am

MollyL

Early morning here. I am trying to jump start my brain with coffee and words. The is6 made my brain want to go back to bed. : )

5:06 am

debjed

I've got my coffee too :)

5:07 am

Haz1558

The only thing is that people with lisps probably bless the fact that the is word doesn't end in multiple ssss.

5:07 am

sprite

what worries me, is that I easily found the is6. My brain has become truly babbled.

5:07 am

Haz1558

I'm getting myself tonguetwisted trying to pronounce it!

5:08 am

sprite

lol Haz... that conjures an image of somebody spitting out their dentures trying to pronounce the word.

5:08 am

lynxxx

That was a reasonably common word when I was a kid...you never hear it anymore

5:09 am

sprite

so many words seem to disappear. I found myself explaining the word 'telex' to a friend of my son.

5:09 am

Haz1558

Should we start a campaign to bring it back?

5:09 am

Haz1558

Telex was particularly noisy, wasn't it?

5:09 am

sprite

you have my vote. I love words. I hate seeing them disappear.

5:10 am

sprite

yes, very

5:10 am

debjed

i don't know either word

5:10 am

5:19 am

Haz1558

You can't fit many ll6 into small is6.

5:19 am

debjed

does it count if I just talk to my cats using the new words I learn :)

5:19 am

debjed

no, it would be better to flummox other people

5:19 am

sprite

yeah I would say so. Cats are people too.

5:20 am

sprite

good one, Haz! I hope it is a no6/30 zone.

5:20 am

see you later

7:19 am

rubyfoo

I have no idea what it means

7:20 am

bichon

Highly attractive or gratifying

7:20 am

looked it up -- has to do with typesetting

7:20 am

rubyfoo

would somebody young even know what typesetting is?

7:21 am

bichon

the ph**? ruby

7:21 am

rubyfoo

yes

7:22 am

bichon

I've only heard of it as an adjective

7:23 am

rubyfoo

"susceptible of easy and rapid typesetting" per my ancient scrabble dictionary

7:23 am

MollyL

I don't think the word "typesetting" belongs in that definition. If you look right next to it, it says the f word. And further down, it is defined as the adjective.

7:24 am

bichon

I guess I only live in modernity.

8:00 am

MollyL

I'm confused. Why is Lickety's list working for some people, and others are getting malware warnings?

8:01 am

jmcnrick

nbt nbs

8:02 am

jmcnrick

i don't know molls i gets the message--maybe we are being selected for annihilation

8:03 am

wvteach

i get the message and don't want to risk it - use a list found elsewhere

8:03 am

MollyL

Oh, I think I figured it out. No warnings when you use Internet Explorer. More reason to NOT use Internet Explorer.

8:03 am

jmcnrick

really? wow!

8:05 am

periwinkle

I use IE but have not tried lickety yeet

8:05 am

periwinkle

yet even

8:05 am

periwinkle

what do you use Molly

8:05 am

jmcnrick

be careful out there peri

8:08 am

JBV

what is this "Malware" message people are getting? My son told me that BabbleExpert from lickety uses an Internet Explorer frame to display the webpage regardless of any browser installed

8:09 am

periwinkle

wouldn't someething like Macafee detect malware?

8:09 am

MollyL

I use Chrome and Firefox.

8:09 am

IndiaJan

i use apple :)

8:10 am

MollyL

Not sure JBV. All I know is that the Malware warning comes up in Google Chrome and Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer.

if i use chrome or firefox to visit www.playbabble.com, i cannot get lickety's word list on the left - how are you using chrome for that function (to use his word list @ r46.me?

8:14 am

jmcnrick

i think that people who use expert can reach it without the warning

8:14 am

MollyL

I don't use Expert.

8:15 am

jmcnrick

but what do i know *wanders off to pb*

8:16 am

MollyL

Oh gee, I guess I need to join JBV.

8:17 am

Jayk

jmc--where is that house?!

8:17 am

MollyL

Or JMC

8:17 am

jmcnrick

the one in my pic? that is my house

8:17 am

jmcnrick

and when i am home this weekend i will take a new pic

8:18 am

jmcnrick

i am now the proud owner of a gas stove sitting in my living room

8:18 am

JBV

chrome and firefox are more secure, they check some kind of "reported sites" Database, but the site might have gotten flagged by accident

8:18 am

Jayk

I know it's yours. where is it?

8:19 am

jmcnrick

upper northwest washington dc

8:19 am

jmcnrick

how well do you know DC?

8:20 am

Good morning, Babblonians!

8:20 am

hi judi!

8:21 am

jmcnrick

8:21 am

Jayk

Nice!

8:21 am

MollyL

Well, I don't use sites that are flagged as potential infectors, so I am grateful to those still posting lists.

8:21 am

Judi

Ty. It's rude. But, those who speak cat will understand.

8:21 am

jmcnrick

so from the deck i will be able to see dc, md, and va

8:21 am

JBV

wvteach: "This web page at r46.me has been reported as an attack page" r46.me is lickety;s website - Are you using his word list with firefox somehow?

8:22 am

jmcnrick

i completely understand that icon judi

8:22 am

hurshy

anyone who would do that to a cat deserves whatever they get! lol

8:22 am

jmcnrick

i agree hursh!

8:23 am

Judi

AVG is excellent free anti-virus/anti-malware protection. I recommend it to everyone.

8:23 am

Judi

I agree, Hurshy. I won't even put a collar on my cats. One: they always slip them or lose them. There's no point. Plus, they're indoor cats.

8:24 am

hurshy

yeah i had collars when my cats were young and i'd never had cats before, even though they are indoor too. i was worried if they got out. but once i realized they weren't that interested in getting out, i ditched them.

8:25 am

Judi

Micro-chips are much more reliable if you have outdoor cats.

8:25 am

millsbooks

dont know if i have done right but i got the warning and clicked go to page and it`s working fine

8:25 am

jmcnrick

my cat goes out all the time but when i tried to get her to wear a collar she got out of it

8:25 am

jmcnrick

she trained me

westford

Oh good. I'm here.

8:34 am

Haz1558

It's probably a good idea to have tasks to accomplish in the PB. Buttons to attach, hems to sew would de5/12 me from visiting the PB.

8:35 am

8:43 am

jmcnrick

8:45 am

I think that Babble is suffering from a lack of Lickety. Especially earlier in the day when long messages go to and fro with lists of stats and clues. I get the puzzle quick enough and then wait ages for the rest of the screen.

is there a babble retirement fund.. for those of us that have to move on after 5 million points?

10:01 am

kje

thanks haz... just saw the final map and mileage... apparently we are 28.9 miles, not 28.3... bet it will feel like another 100 at that point, but will all be over soon

10:02 am

kje

hagd all... poof

10:02 am

rururocks

??

10:02 am

Haz1558

That's a good point, ruru. Have you got your 5 million yet?

10:02 am

rururocks

not yet..I'm closing in on it though

10:02 am

*Laughs, imagining the Babble Retirement Village*

10:03 am

Hi Haz, nice to see you here

10:04 am

Haz1558

Hello, bichon.

10:04 am

MollyL

I don't even want to consider the currency there.

10:04 am

bichon

I missed you

10:05 am

Haz1558

Poor bichon! How are you?

10:05 am

bichon

I'm doing very well, thank you. We survived the snow storm and power outage

10:06 am

Haz1558

It was pretty disruptive for a lot of people - glad you came through unscathed. Is everyone back with power again?

10:07 am

bichon

Yes, for about a week. We were only down for 3 days, but some didn't have power for 10 days. Awful

10:08 am

Haz1558

I know Dorens had problems as well. Hopefully the rest of the winter won't be so bad.

10:08 am

rururocks

oh.. I forgot..I'm supposed to find words..lol

10:08 am

<----------- yonder

10:08 am

bichon

Keeping our fingers crossed. We had a hurricane in Aug. and a freak October snowstorm in Oct. before the leaves had fallen

10:09 am

rururocks

I'd rather deal with earthquakes than hurricanes and snow storms

10:09 am

Haz1558

You're due for a bit of peaceful weather.

10:09 am

bichon

We had that too in July, but it was minimal up here

10:11 am

Haz1558

ruru, have you had your knee sorted out?

10:11 am

pigeonman

te6?

10:11 am

10:11 am

10:11 am

Haz1558

Or te plus heavenly instrument mixed up

10:11 am

rururocks

no.. I think I'm having surgery in January though.. I will likely have it done in SF

10:12 am

pigeonman

aha. ty

10:12 am

bichon

10:12 am

10:13 am

I won't go to lickety right now

10:13 am

Haz1558

Do you get sympathetic glances because of your limp?

10:13 am

10:15 am

JBV, I have no doubt that the warning is for real. People who are using that site anyway are taking a big risk.

10:15 am

bichon

Okay, I don't know where that is. Am only familiar with UCSF

10:15 am

rururocks

it's on Webster near California

10:16 am

rururocks

Lots of great, great doctors there

10:16 am

I'm only familiar with Kaiser SF. That's where one of my grand children was born

10:17 am

rururocks

:D I hope they just do my knee and I don't end up with a kid

10:17 am

Haz1558

I kind of think you'd feature on the news if you did.

10:17 am

bichon

Are you from the Bay Area Ruru?

10:18 am

rururocks

imagine the malpractice suit

10:18 am

Haz1558

That would be one for the National Enquirer.

10:18 am

rururocks

yes Bichon born in Burlingame

10:18 am

oh.. didn't you go to martinez sometime?

10:20 am

aebmusica

sorry'' the first one broke and ruptured my left ligament i my left knee one month after surgery

10:20 am

bichon

where is martinez?

10:20 am

bichon

I once went to Antioch to see the dogs I was adopting

10:21 am

rururocks

near Benicia and Crockett

10:21 am

rururocks

all that's it

10:21 am

rururocks

Martinez is near Antioch

10:21 am

bichon

where are they?

10:21 am

bichon

okay, must have been last Jan. when I was visiting the kids and went way out to the East Bay

10:24 am

rururocks

yeah.. I remembered that and thought you lived in the East Bay

10:24 am

bichon

No, oon the East Coast. Only get to the Bay Area a few times each year. But I love it

10:31 am

Haz1558

Hello, Aloy and uusue.

10:31 am

hootowl

I saw that post about Lickety being hacked. When we first lost the site a Babble member offered a free site & domain, But I no longer have mrp's email addy. Will someone please either send me her addy or send her mine?

10:31 am

Aloyisius

hi Haz (-:

10:33 am

hootowl

Meantime does anyone have a list?

10:33 am

uusue2

hi, haz and hoot! (ok, that's an interesting combination!) :-)

10:33 am

Aloyisius

Dee does

10:33 am

hootowl

oh yeah! Hi everyone = a little distracted

10:34 am

hootowl

ty Aloy

10:34 am

bichon

could someone tell me by the BetaV12 version works for clues and there's nothing about it being hacked?

10:35 am

Aloyisius

brb.. someone drank my coffee again

10:37 am

hootowl

bichon - what is BetaV12 ?

10:38 am

hootowl

brb

10:38 am

bichon

I don't know, but that's what it said on top of the grid

10:38 am

bichon

I've had a working list a couple of times this week

10:40 am

bichon

today is one of those days

10:40 am

bichon

It doesn't say anything about malware

10:41 am

ursh

hello all - bichon I just clicked on babble clues under the grid and list came up for today - no problem - no warnings at all

10:41 am

MollyL

JBV says the entire re46.me site has been hacked. So anything you are using from that site is potentially dangrous.

10:42 am

Aloyisius

I had an "attack" alert yesterday too

10:42 am

Aloyisius

and am concerned

10:42 am

bichon

I don't know. My computer hasn't crashed, yet

10:42 am

ursh

my avast antivirus etc does'nt seem to mind it

10:43 am

MollyL

The malware warning doesn't come up in Internet Explorer. That doesn't mean there are not problems on the site.

10:43 am

Aloyisius

Was using Firefox when I rec'd the warning.. now on GoogleChrome

10:45 am

MollyL

Firefox and Google Chrome both throw up the warning when you try to access the site. Anyone using the site should be aware of potential problems later and the fact that software could have been installed on your computer that will access your personal information. Those warnings don't come up just for fun.

10:45 am

SeaSpray

What site? I just came in

10:45 am

Aloyisius

think I may call McAfee today.. my scan only shows 2 items scanned! Something is amiss

10:46 am

bichon

Nobody here has the BetaV12 version of Babble Expert from licketySplitAUS?

10:47 am

MollyL

Lickety's site Sea.

10:47 am

SeaSpray

Don't know which version I have...I am in the office now and don't use lickety here...hmmm

10:47 am

Aloyisius

bichon, I think that is what I was using when I got the warning.. but not sure, could have been BetaV10, sorry

10:50 am

bichon

I might have gotten this version when I got my new lap top in August

10:50 am

Haz1558

Time was when the only virus you had to worry about was the 'flu...

10:51 am

ursh

i do bichon but sometimes battle to get the new clues - keeps showing yesterday

10:51 am

MollyL

This happens sometimes when owners let their domain names expire. I'm sure it will get worked out eventually.

10:52 am

bichon

so it's ursh and I who have the BetaV12 and no one else here

10:56 am

uusue2

still get the malware warning from Chrome

10:56 am

uusue2

don't have expert installed in the office

10:56 am

Bethjt

Bichon I have version Beta v12

10:57 am

Aloyisius

am staying far away from the site for now

10:57 am

Bethjt

Are you having trouble with it?

10:57 am

Aloyisius

yesterday, Beth.. haven't been back

10:57 am

bichon

Beth, do have clues listed

10:58 am

Bethjt

Its working fine for me today with clues and all. But did have trouble earlier in the week.

10:59 am

bichon

Yes, I had clues on Sunday and today. Can anyone else here download the BetaV12 version?

10:59 am

Mom

I have BetaV12 and it seems to be working just fine. Just opened it though

10:59 am

Haz, how have you been? Has your daughter settled into married life?

11:03 am

Haz1558

I'm fine, Mom and my daughter has settled in well. I now get phone calls for advice about housework!

11:04 am

Mom

:-)

11:04 am

Haz1558

She's very organised, has a whiteboard with her menus for the week and her chores to be done.

11:05 am

Haz1558

We'll see how long it lasts.

11:05 am

Mom

<---- wishes I was that organized

11:05 am

Mom

if it is on a whiteboard than her husband can also see what needs to be done. Very smart on her part

11:06 am

Aloyisius

h'mm.. good thought, Mom

11:06 am

Haz1558

He's actually good at cooking and very prepared to help with chores. She chose well.

11:06 am

Aloyisius

I have to "do windows" today..

11:07 am

Mom

no window washing here today, it is raining

11:07 am

Haz1558

Don't talk to me about windows. They're taunting me.

11:07 am

Aloyisius

tried to ignore them, but everytime I look out.. or try to look out..

11:07 am

Mom

Sweetie did all the floors for me last Saturday while I was out. So that is one less thing to do before Thanksgiving

11:08 am

Aloyisius

sweetie is a sweetie!

11:08 am

Mom

he is indeed

11:08 am

Mom

let me ask you all this ..... what product/s do you use to clean the windows?

11:09 am

Mom

Sweetie and I laugh when we do the windows. Seems like a contest as to who can get the most streaks :-)

11:09 am

Haz1558

Hot water, fairy liquid (mild dishwashing detergent) and a microfibre cloth.

11:10 am

Mom

like that .... fairy liquid

11:10 am

Haz1558

I've tried the squeegee thing but I'm not skilled enough. Always bubbles left over where they shouldn't be.

11:10 am

Mom

just a few squirts?

11:11 am

Haz1558

Fairy liquid is wonderful stuff - no other dishwashing stuff compares. Just a couple of squirts is plenty.

11:12 am

Aloyisius

I use the microfiber cloth to wipe the squeegee after each pass and it seems to prevent any streaking..

11:12 am

Haz1558

The microfibre glass cloth is good for shower screens and mirrors as well, no streaks.

11:13 am

Haz1558

Husband once confessed that he thought we had got special non-streak glass in the new shower. He hadn't realised that I cleaned it regularly.

11:13 am

Aloyisius

windows are so tall, the squeegee prevents having to climb up and down ladders.. ugh

11:13 am

Mom

I just looked up Fairy liquid and it is manufactured by Proctor and Gamble

11:13 am

Mom

:-) of course you clean it regularly

11:13 am

Aloyisius

ty Mom.. will keep that in mind

11:15 am

Mom

I use to work there before I had my boys

11:15 am

Mom

Might have to call and see what is similar to Fairy Liquid here in the states

11:16 am

Aloyisius

have never seen in the stores here

11:16 am

Mom

I haven't either.

11:17 am

Haz1558

It's one of those products that everyone knows over here. The advertising jingle used to be 'Now hands that do dishes can't be soft as your face with mild green Fairy Liquid'.

11:18 am

Haz1558

There would be lingering shots of a model looking ecstatic as she plunged her beautifully manicured hands into the lovely bubbles.

11:18 am

Aloyisius

one year we tried to hire someone to come and "do windows" before the holidays and the window washers were booked till Jan, so we went to the home supply store and bought all kinds of professional stuff.. solutions, squeegees, etc.. saved money in the long run and did a great job ourselves.. having the right equipment helps

12:59 pm

crosshair

The cubicle did not get itâ€™s name from its â€œcubeâ€ shape, (a cube has six sides). It is from the Latin â€œcubiculumâ€ meaning bed chamber.

12:59 pm

ursh

bated breath crosshair!!

1:00 pm

ursh

MollyL

westford

1:38 pm

westford

I love that car !!

1:38 pm

Aaronitor

1:39 pm

westford

hi aaron Latin plural of what Panama is on

1:39 pm

amelu0218

is 6/24

1:40 pm

uusue2

ok, that is a weird word. Who knew that was the plural???

1:40 pm

uusue2

however it gives me nbt.

1:40 pm

westford

good going sue !!

1:41 pm

Aaronitor

ty very much

1:41 pm

westford

I always wanted to spend Christmas on an is***** (singular)

1:41 pm

Aaronitor

ithe

1:42 pm

Aaronitor

soz,wrong box

1:45 pm

uusue2

indeed, that wath the wrong boxth, aaron :-)

1:45 pm

westford

my mother has been in a nursing home for over a year she is getting better and we want to bring her home..in order to do that both my brother and I had to get tested for TB..even the doctor thought that was bogus

1:46 pm

uusue2

ok, that sounds weird.

1:46 pm

westford

we also have to take a CPR course

1:46 pm

westford

that I don't mind

1:47 pm

amelu0218

what?!?! that's rediculous! can see the CPR if you're not already certified.

1:47 pm

amelu0218

but TB testing?!?!

1:47 pm

westford

especially since we've been visiting her right along

1:48 pm

westford

it's on the rise again apparently

1:49 pm

westford

have to go in today to have it read..I don't even have a little bump

1:49 pm

westford

so I guess I passed

1:50 pm

amelu0218

they'd probably have quarrantined you if you didn't.

1:50 pm

HarryHood

any1 have a clue on that bottom L? It's between me and nbt

1:50 pm

westford

I didn't even study

1:50 pm

amelu0218

pass, that is.

1:50 pm

westford

double l harry not the animal

1:50 pm

MollyL

It does seem kind of silly to have to get a TB test for that reason.

1:51 pm

HarryHood

ty west!!

1:51 pm

westford

tell me about it

1:51 pm

westford

yvw harry

1:52 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

1:52 pm

HarryHood

halfway!

1:53 pm

jmcnrick

not so much if you remember tb wards

1:53 pm

HarryHood

hi jmc

1:53 pm

westford

hi again jmc

1:53 pm

jmcnrick

wtg harry

1:53 pm

westford

there was a documentary on PBS about that jmc very scary

1:54 pm

HarryHood

I had a chinese roommate once, who had scarring on his lungs from tb exposure, but didn't have the disease.

1:54 pm

westford

my mom is coming back to the house she's lived in for over 50 years

1:54 pm

HarryHood

the local health dept made him take the antibiotics anyway

1:54 pm

jmcnrick

my oldest sister had tb

1:54 pm

HarryHood

he spent every night vomiting from teh drugs - couldn't keep anythin gdown

1:54 pm

westford

was she in a sanatorium?

1:55 pm

amelu0218

the testing is not what I think is odd. I can see it if you have medical complaints that are questionable... I just think it odd that you can't bring home a family member without being tested...

1:55 pm

jmcnrick

no she fortunately had a very mild case

1:55 pm

westford

true ame and back to her own home

1:55 pm

jmcnrick

because if they are a member of the family.. . . . ?

1:55 pm

amelu0218

really? Did the care facility require that or is it a state or city statute?

1:55 pm

westford

also need 3 references each

1:56 pm

amelu0218

Jesus, Mary & Joseph! 3 references?!?

1:56 pm

jmcnrick

i spent a large part of my life as a lawyer helping elderly who had been abused by family members

1:56 pm

westford

she'll be in a new home care program that's in 3 states now started in MA

1:56 pm

jmcnrick

trust me you don't want to know what i know

1:57 pm

westford

house must be inspected too

1:57 pm

westford

elderly abuse is terrible

1:57 pm

jmcnrick

so the state is paying for some of the care?

1:58 pm

westford

they will pay for any work that has to be done to make the house safe but will put a lien on her house

1:58 pm

jmcnrick

so basically an interest free loan

1:58 pm

westford

this is supposed to be an alternate to nursing homes but it's like pulling hen's teeth to get her out of there

1:59 pm

westford

I hope so

1:59 pm

westford

I should say alternative

1:59 pm

jmcnrick

well from where i sit: it is a new system that they want to work so they are doing everything they can to assure that there are not a lot of horror stories from the first attempts

2:00 pm

jmcnrick

there are enough of those from nursing homes

2:00 pm

jmcnrick

annoying but worth it in the long run

2:00 pm

westford

it is a new program..surprised they didn't ask for drug testing

2:01 pm

westford

I know jmc and she's so anxious to get back home

2:01 pm

jmcnrick

that wouldn't be a bad idea actually *remembers some cases*

2:01 pm

jmcnrick

*shudder*

2:01 pm

amelu0218

true enough jmc, no dispute there... neglect and abuse run as rampant with the elderly as with children... then, when the abuser needs care they wonder 'why won't anyone help me?' ...

2:01 pm

MollyL

Thanks for the perspective JMC, now I understand the scrutiny.

2:02 pm

amelu0218

west, will all three of you be living in the same home or will she be by herself in her original home of 50 years?

2:02 pm

jmcnrick

there is additional incentive for elder abuse since there is usually money or property involved

2:02 pm

amelu0218

just trying to see the whole picture...

2:03 pm

amelu0218

and drugs, jmc, usually drugs, too.

2:03 pm

westford

My brother will be living with her I am the alternate but only live a mile and a half away

2:03 pm

jmcnrick

i am sure you will be glad to have her home

2:03 pm

jmcnrick

it is good that you have each other to help

2:03 pm

westford

it will be a happy time for all of us

2:04 pm

westford

he's bringing her here for Thanksgiving

2:04 pm

amelu0218

hopefully, just in time for the holidays...

2:04 pm

MollyL

Elder abuse makes me as sad as child abuse. Some people are just awful.

2:04 pm

jmcnrick

how nice!

2:04 pm

amelu0218

Yay!

2:04 pm

jmcnrick

indeed molls

2:04 pm

jmcnrick

is it too early for a jack? i have water in my eyes

2:05 pm

westford

just for dinner though..our coordinator says it may take up to 120 days

2:05 pm

amelu0218

it's 5:00 somewhere

2:05 pm

westford

I'd join you if I didn't have to leave

2:06 pm

jmcnrick

still nice to have her home for such a family dinner

2:06 pm

jmcnrick

ty ame brb

2:06 pm

westford

sure will..I'll make all her favorites

2:07 pm

westford

we joined her for Thanksgiving dinner at the nursing home last year..they tried but it just wasn't the same

2:07 pm

amelu0218

that is outstanding. she will be so pleased... along with the 'you shouldn't have's, LOL!

2:07 pm

westford

Mom is a terrific cook..taught me all I know

2:08 pm

uusue2

how great that you are able to bring her home, at least for a little while, west!

2:08 pm

uusue2

the rest of it seems a bit over the top but I can see jmc's point. would be nice if they could get through the paperwork faster, though

2:09 pm

westford

we are all excited sue

2:09 pm

jmcnrick

back with jack and water

2:09 pm

westford

she 95 years young

2:09 pm

westford

steals a little sip

2:09 pm

jmcnrick

that is wonderful west

2:09 pm

uusue2

hi, jmc!

2:10 pm

jmcnrick

hi uu i have been just missing you lately

2:10 pm

uusue2

2:10 pm

jmcnrick

sorry it is a weak drink in deference to the early hour

2:11 pm

uusue2

well, next week is Thanksgiving, the week after that is the last week of classes, then finals, then we are off until January 17!

2:11 pm

uusue2

westford

2:12 pm

jmcnrick

i am less unhappy today but then i am not doing any work

2:12 pm

uusue2

2:12 pm

westford

2:12 pm

jmcnrick

2:13 pm

HarryHood

2:13 pm

westford

*poof*

2:13 pm

uusue2

oh, nice, harry!

2:13 pm

HarryHood

israel in the summer - "nice" is not a word that comes to mind :)

2:13 pm

jmcnrick

i am hoping this summer to go to ramallah if i don't get a job

2:13 pm

HarryHood

"air conditioning" comes to mind :)

2:14 pm

HarryHood

jmc it's gonna be so so so hot

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

take lots of lotion harry

2:14 pm

amelu0218

harry, i'm using lickety

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

hot i can stand but dry and hot is hard on me

2:14 pm

uusue2

oh, jmc, you should get in touch with my honorary sister Deb! If you go let me know and I will get you her contact information.

2:14 pm

HarryHood

my kids are melanin-challenged

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

she's in ramallah?

2:15 pm

jmcnrick

i am allergic to sunshine--literally

2:15 pm

HarryHood

lickety is up amelu? that's great!

2:15 pm

uusue2

lots of sun lotion then, Harry, it is indeed hot and dry.

2:15 pm

uusue2

And sunny.

2:15 pm

HarryHood

one of my kids is totally white and red-headed. burns in just a few minutes

2:15 pm

uusue2

I have been there twice, once in July and once in November; it was cooler in the north in November but the southern desert was still hot.

2:16 pm

jmcnrick

we'll see it is just a dream at this point but i have been working on a project at the ramallan friends school and would love to see it

2:16 pm

HarryHood

I've been there many many times, but I try not to go in the summer. unfortunately we have a few events to attend there this summer, and that's when school is out

2:16 pm

uusue2

not sure exactly where she is at the moment, jmc, I'll ask here when we're there

2:16 pm

jmcnrick

irish?

2:16 pm

amelu0218

I feel the pain, Harry. Red-headed and pale is definitely a description I fit...

2:17 pm

jmcnrick

honestly i would rather have a job--especially the job working in london

2:18 pm

uusue2

ok, she's a ways from Ramallah, as far as I know, but I'm pretty sure she's been there, and may even have friends there

2:21 pm

HarryHood

no, just pale.

2:21 pm

jmcnrick

ah

2:21 pm

HarryHood

well I'm ready to list with 135...lazy today

2:24 pm

hootowl

There are issues with lickety on firefox/google

2:24 pm

hootowl

Use ie /yahoo instead or use my list

2:24 pm

HarryHood

I'm using expert

2:25 pm

hootowl

Are you on google?

2:25 pm

HarryHood

on google? not sure what that means.

2:26 pm

hootowl

did you get the list?

2:26 pm

HarryHood

yup

2:26 pm

lynxxx

Expert uses IE I believe

2:28 pm

hootowl

Whatever - i use firefox on google and there ia an attack box warning you off. Apparently someone has hacked that site! If you are IE you get lickety but it's all strung out down the page

2:28 pm

hootowl

at least mine is. Using uahoo is getting to be a royal drag!

2:28 pm

amelu0218

my last 80 or so were rather difficult (for me, lol) but the rest was pretty much a breeze...

2:29 pm

wht

The malware that Firefox reports was detected on Nov 13 which was when the site was showing the go-daddy page.

2:30 pm

hootowl

missed that one = I'm only passing on what was said today - don't use google or coogle chrome

2:30 pm

hootowl

actuakky coogle is probably safe!:D

2:31 pm

amelu0218

2:42 pm

2:42 pm

hootowl

second isn't and neither is the 3rd

2:42 pm

jmcnrick

i was picking out light fixtures and need to order my cabinets

2:42 pm

hootowl

2 thumbs up on the gas!

2:42 pm

lynxxx

well - thats sort of great?

2:43 pm

jmcnrick

i wanted a gas wa** oven but they were either too small or waaaaaaay too expensive so went for a stove

2:43 pm

jmcnrick

if it were electric i could at least use it haha

2:44 pm

jmcnrick

so many stupid details like where light switches go

2:44 pm

jmcnrick

and do i want to be able to turn off the fan separately from the lights

2:44 pm

lynxxx

of course

2:45 pm

hootowl

Whenwe rented this place they told us we'd have to buy stove and fridge. Memphis doesn't use gas for cooking. But we bought a gas stove and I am in heacen!

2:45 pm

jmcnrick

of course indeed like if the lights are out i don't want to be cooled??

2:46 pm

jmcnrick

i love gas -- when i was buying a house i wouldn't even look at houses that didn't have gas stoves

2:46 pm

jmcnrick

any way one of my big goals for this week is to order the cabinets

2:47 pm

lynxxx

So all the construction is finished and you are now up to all the fittings? floors done?

2:48 pm

amelu0218

We had to replace the floor in our kitchen (rather, hubby & son did) a couple of years ago... the sink & countertop stayed in the front foyer, the fridge was in the garage and the stove was unusable in the front foyer (electric, no plug there)... had to wash dishes in the bathtub, tote water from the bathroom sink for cooking on a two burner electric element that sat on the sink/countertop in the foyer... it only lasted a year, thank God.

2:48 pm

jmcnrick

no but if i don't order it now then i won't have it when they are ready

2:48 pm

jmcnrick

just discussed the floor yesterday too

2:48 pm

amelu0218

so, jmc, I feel your pain and your joy!

2:48 pm

jmcnrick

yikes! a year!

2:49 pm

lynxxx

wow Amelu

2:49 pm

jmcnrick

i thought i could use my george forman grill but it is too big to wash in the bathroom sink

2:49 pm

jmcnrick

i am reasonably well set with my dorm fridge and microwave

2:50 pm

jmcnrick

i would just have to shoot myself to live like this 6 more months

2:51 pm

amelu0218

Luckily, I had that little 2 element stovetop... I got that after my house had burned down and the house we moved to didn't have appliances... so, just something I already had stored...

2:51 pm

jmcnrick

although if i were getting the labor for free i guess i would be more tolerant

2:53 pm

amelu0218

LOL! yes, and if a significant other is involved, occasionally it's nice to take a weekend off together...

2:53 pm

amelu0218

:o)

2:53 pm

jmcnrick

my son and i laid our slate patio together and it only took 2 years

2:54 pm

amelu0218

yep, you've been there, too.

2:54 pm

jmcnrick

2:54 pm

2:55 pm

5:20 pm

MollyL

All I can say is that virus warnings don't pop up for no reason. I hope that those of you who are choosing to use the site, in spite of the warnings, are very diligent about running your virus protection and your malware protection. And yes, those are two different things.

5:21 pm

redturtlehead

140 here, but I have no finishing plans, I am taking things easy!

5:21 pm

getting over my cold, high-humidity environment, and a cat on my wrists. life is good. Even doing some laundry.

hi, red, molly, une, pery, nan, et al. How yall doing?

5:22 pm

Uneaixoise

hey, seain! :-)

5:22 pm

redturtlehead

hi seain, I've gotthe humidity but no cat. and also getting over some sort of cold.

5:23 pm

dcseain

i've used a humidifier, for though it's rainy, we're still near the desert dry of Winter here

5:23 pm

cybernan

molly -- sometimes you get virus warnings, simply because the computer has no other description for an abnormality and some av programs will give you a warning simply because there is no recognizable signature for the site -- this most often happens when you visit a privately administer site such as Fireworks Forever

5:24 pm

redturtlehead

Oh its hot here and humid, high of 86 today, I broke down and had to turn on the AC...ugh.

5:24 pm

dcseain

excellent guidance, nan

5:24 pm

i think it got into the 60s today, but it's still 70 in the house, even with the sliding door and kitchen window open

I am tired of me coughing. I finally broke down and even called in sick...

5:26 pm

redturtlehead

Oooh maybe for a day nan!

5:26 pm

dcseain

foggy and rainy is a favorite weather pattern of mine. Foggy and snowy is very rare here, sounds interesting

5:27 pm

MollyL

Nan, check with JBV next time you see her around. She posted today that the site is definitely infected. And you can have malware attach itself to your computer without you being aware of that. Meanwhile, it is picking up all your personal information. Red, Seain, hope you both feel better soon.

5:28 pm

cybernan

I will run malware bytes and check it out, molly

5:28 pm

redturtlehead

Well, i am glad I am not using it!

I have a program called Malwarebytes that I use, peri. Most malware is things like tracking cookies -- acquired from every website that keeps count of how many hits they get and how many times they get hits from the same computer. Yes -- I use the microsoft av detector that is free for personal use, but charges for commercial use -- find it to be very good.

well, too many of them and I get a bit of a sugar hangover (not sure exactly how to describe it)

6:06 pm

uusue2

he's having trouble staying focused and organizing his time, and it's causing him to not do very well in his courses

6:06 pm

MollyL

Is he carrying a big load this semester?

6:07 pm

uusue2

(not a new problem but he has yet to develop coping strategies)

6:07 pm

uusue2

4 courses, which isn't a lot, except two of them are calculus 3 and physics 2

6:07 pm

uusue2

and he's working a lot of hours right now

6:07 pm

cybernan

is he still getting passing grades?

6:08 pm

MollyL

Oh hell Sue, that is like six courses for us "normal folks".

6:08 pm

uusue2

I don't think so, nan, he's had trouble with tests in calculus, and has missed turning in some lab reports in physics

Microfosoft would not let me run a malware scan unleses I turned off my other security stuff and did not want to do that

6:09 pm

cybernan

is there a counsellor he can see for some help?

6:09 pm

MollyL

I had a very hard time working and going to school at the same time. There just didn't seem to be enough time to do well at both.

6:09 pm

MollyL

Smart move Peri.

6:09 pm

cybernan

*I realize that part of the problem is getting them to admit there is a problem and to seek help

6:10 pm

uusue2

there are lots of counselors, nan, but he has to decide he wants to go see them; I've been encouraging him but it really is up to him - he is an adult now

6:10 pm

uusue2

he's agreed that it's a good idea but somehow never gets around to it

6:10 pm

MollyL

The wise ones say that if you pull yourself in too many directions, something is bound to give.

6:11 pm

uusue2

This is certainly true. I've suggested that he not work, but he enjoys it (mostly) and certainly enjoys the money, and heaven knows I have little enough of that at the momeny

6:11 pm

uusue2

*moment

6:12 pm

cybernan

I guess all you can do is try to be supportive and not push too hard. As long is there is nothing bothering him that he is keeping bottled up. I think the young people have so many pressures today that it is not surprising that so many of them suffer from some degree of clinical depression.

6:12 pm

uusue2

yes, that is what I am doing, nan, it is just hard as a mom not to try to barge in and fix everything

6:13 pm

uusue2

anyway I think I will go home, it is getting pretty cold outside

6:41 pm

MollyL

I don't think JBV said she got a virus from Babble Expert. She just said that she was confident the site is infected. Or something to that effect. Better to ask her about it. Meanwhile, I guess everyone can choose to use that site at their own risk. I won't be until the warnings are gone.

6:41 pm

hello everyone. My friend Jeff is trying the game for the first time, he's a little flummoxed :)

6:44 pm

if the site was infected and passing on infected files, we would all get them, molly --- clearly I didn't get anything - no warnings and no files showing up in the scan I just did.

6:44 pm

debjed

i need one more i from the fourth row. i have ih5,14

6:45 pm

cybernan

what exactly does the warning say?

6:45 pm

bichon

if you use BetaV12, you can use the list and not get malware

6:45 pm

cybernan

it 4, 6

6:46 pm

cybernan

oops sorry those aren't from 4th row

6:46 pm

id 4/6 is

6:46 pm

debjed

id4,6 though, got it , thank you :)

6:47 pm

wht

The date on the warning is from the time when Lickety's domain had lapsed, so the malware was from the page that was up then.

6:47 pm

cybernan

ty bichon -- perhaps that is the explanation -- it is the version I am using

6:47 pm

Hi jmc

i removed all these things to make my computer faster and it made it slower

7:40 pm

no -- I finished just before you came on

7:40 pm

cybernan

what did you remove?

7:41 pm

wht

jmc, I am slow even without a computer.

7:41 pm

jmcnrick

i swear it used avg pc cleanup and i completely trust avg but. . . .

7:41 pm

jmcnrick

the typing is not keeping up

7:41 pm

cybernan

on my way -- there goes the buzzer

7:41 pm

jmcnrick

wht you so are not slow in anyway mentallly

7:42 pm

jmcnrick

physically i won't vouch for

7:42 pm

jmcnrick

so i am guessing the system tweaks are why my typing isn't keeping up with my fingers

7:43 pm

jmcnrick

but getting rid of aero shake and aero snap shouldn't have effected the typing

7:44 pm

jmcnrick

affected?

7:44 pm

jmcnrick

bbl

7:44 pm

cybernan

I just switched to microsoft av free on the new computer -- but still use avg on the laptop. I think both are really good -- ms runs constantly in the background which is nice. Don't use clean up though. 2 very good programs that you can control: Crap Cleaner (freeware for personal use) and Malwarebytes (reasonable price)

7:46 pm

wht

Good night all. Happy Babbling.

7:54 pm

Microsoft Security Essentials is what my IT guy currently recommends. It's free. Malware Bytes is too.

7:54 pm

mab

night wht. Bitdefender, which is my anti-virus ware, is monstrous. It's taken over my laptop and I am frequently at war with it. Even if I want to use something I know to be safe, Bitdefender fights me tooth and nail. I feel very secure and also annoyed.

8:45 pm

Jilli, did you ever figure out how to transfer a file to your thumb drive?

8:47 pm

jillibus

Yes, thanks, Molly, and now I've written everything down and put it with the little thingy (Flash drive is the word use in these here parts, bub), lol!

8:47 pm

jillibus

(at least I think so)

8:47 pm

MollyL

The other thing you can do, if you just want to transfer a file from one of your computers to the other is just email the file to yourself, then download it to the other computer.

8:48 pm

jillibus

Hmf, that sounds nice and simple -- will try it some time

8:49 pm

MollyL

I had to transfer a ton of files at work today from scanned files to an external drive, and it made me think of you trying to figure things out the other day.

8:50 pm

jillibus

This was a file made with MS Works, which I have on my laptop but not on the desktop I want to use. So I put it into MSPub, which I have on both. Would emailing it in those circumstances have worked?

8:55 pm

MollyL

Not sure, as I have never used MSPub.

9:02 pm

jillibus

Well, anyway, I was able to carry the MS Pub file from the laptop to the desktop eventually -- had just skipped a step or two, lol!

9:04 pm
