12:29 pm
welki
told me to take that week off from work (i did) .. went back and worked last week and here i am.
12:29 pm
Scrabbler
Well, it is more than a cold, for sure. A cold (viral sinusitis) should be done in 10-14 days. So, perhaps bacterial sinusitis although wheezing makes me consider pneumonia.
12:29 pm
hootowl
culd you be reacting to something at work?
12:30 pm
welki
here's the thing (there's always a thing) -- prior to getting sick (a day or two), i had some periodontal work done and was on a course of two antibiotics (amoxil and metronidazol)
12:30 pm

a red coloring used in Caribbean dishes

hego
Scrabbler what do you think of Mucinex?
12:33 pm
hootowl
never used it but see it a lot in morewords
12:33 pm
Scrabbler
Walking pneumonia is from either Mycoplasma or Chlamydophila. I get it about once yearly--starts as sore throat, then raspy voice, then cough, cough, cough, especially with deep inspiration or laughing.
12:33 pm
welki
mucinex isn't available up here, but my daughter brought some with her when she visited :)
12:34 pm
hego
I think it can worsen some coughs, but not sure.
12:34 pm
welki
that sounds right on the money, scrabbs ... and exactly as i described it to my doctor (who i don't like and am not surprised he didn't pick up on it)
12:34 pm
Scrabbler
Cold and cough meds are useless and have potentially bad side effects (increased BP, HR...) I would never spend money on any of those meds.
12:34 pm
welki
<-- hasn't been taking it for this
12:35 pm
hego
I agree Scrabs
12:35 pm
Scrabbler
Well, tell your doc to call me for advice after he checks you.
12:35 pm

12:36 pm

not so easy to do up here, hoot .. you pretty much have to take what you get
12:36 pm

Codeine is a poor cough-suppressant too. There is always a reason for a cough.

Always LISTEN to the patient. The history gives the diagnosis most of the time.

okay then, being proactive, what should i be asking HIM tonight?
12:38 pm
welki
(the coughing fits are the worst ... my ribs are so sore)
12:38 pm
Scrabbler
If the doc hears nothing in your chest then ask him for a chest x-ray.
12:39 pm
Scrabbler
Have you been around any others with prolonged coughing? Pertussis is also called the "100-day cough."
12:39 pm
hootowl
And make him listen to what you are saying. I get ignored and Ihate it! No one knows how you relly feel except you!
12:39 pm

No exposure to someone with TB? And you are not a smoker, right?
12:40 pm

scrabbs, i stopped taking the codeine, it didn't do much for the cough and take nyquil (because it helps me sleep and it's an all-in-one med). should i not be taking a cough suppressant?
12:51 pm
crosshair
problem with codeine is it bungs you up as well
12:51 pm
Scrabbler
It won't help because you NEED to cough. Something is triggering the cough reflex and I suspect pneumonia based on your story. To sleep you can take a single ingredient--generic Benadryl. The multi-ingredient products include things that don't work--decongestant, expectorant and cough suppressant.

1:23 pm
crosshair
nope,they know better than to do that to me.2 years ago,i started saving all those free postage return envelopes that come with junk mail.then i used them to send them back each other junk mail! was great!! keeps my blue box empty and keeps canada postal workers busy
1:23 pm
hootowl
Ah - that makes me feel better...sorta.
1:25 pm
crosshair
you wrap up about 10 pounds of junk mail in butcher paper,then just paste the free return postage envelope on the outside(many do not have weight limits!!)
1:25 pm
crosshair
and off it goes!:)
1:25 pm
hootowl
That's funny! I do tend to order from catalgs but mostly books and to avoid the 9.5% sales tax. I think the ones I used sold the lists and then they sold the list and then.......
1:26 pm
crosshair
never,ever toss those free postage return envelopes..they are golden:))
1:26 pm

1:30 pm
crosshair
i DARE them to send me junk mail...hehe
1:30 pm
hootowl
Well they don't consider them junk. And I imagine, in this economy, one order will be a big deal.
1:31 pm
crosshair
only the local pizza joints have been brave enough and when i get 100 or 200 flyers collected from the 3 or 4 that operate here in town,i will wrap them up and mail them to....lets see what junk mail envelopes i have left......ahh! publishers clearing house gets the next batch!
1:31 pm
hootowl
But when I see the same item in 5 catalogs and they all have the same price or higher. I'll stick to my regulars
1:33 pm
crosshair
you guys should try thismethod of mine,it keeps your recycle box emptier and i read that the u.s postal is on the edge of ruin.this will give them more work
1:33 pm
hootowl
that reminds me- I have to write a letter to them. I ordered something, sent a check and was notified I was late with my payment. This was about 5-6 mts ago. Sent new check. Last months bank statement said the check had been cashed. Want my money back!
1:34 pm
crosshair
indeed!
1:35 pm

1:41 pm
crosshair
nah,just so i can sit there and waste an entire day of my life and close my station? they go alphabetically with cases here and they get to the m,s usually round 2pm BUT you all have to be sitting there from 9 am on just in case there are some not shows
1:42 pm

a latke is a potato pancake is a latke. What you mix in is up to you. Give us recipe afterwards

yup! And if it's on allrecipes I can get it
2:02 pm
HarryHood
aaron do you ahve the bottom T or top A?
2:02 pm
HarryHood
crossy it's adverb (I think) of making potato latkes with lard
2:03 pm
HarryHood
is there a list today?
2:03 pm

top a is the same as annotto but take an n out and change one of the o's
2:06 pm
HarryHood
aah got it
2:09 pm
Dorens
crossy just checked that recipe.... I think you should definitely increase the amount of onion (from an old latkes maven, since childhood)
2:09 pm
HarryHood
got the T too.
2:11 pm
crosshair
ty dorens i shall do that
2:11 pm
Dorens
I do them once a year and don't really have the recipe in my head, but I don't think the proportions sound right there... too much egg, not enough onion. I used to eat these as fast as my mother could make them. No self-discipline when it comes to latkes... and they're scrumptious when crispy and served with sour cream. Some prefer applesauce. I like both!
2:11 pm
Aaronitor
pleased u gt T was struggling to clue it
2:12 pm
welki
(i put a half a teaspoon of baking powder in for every pound of potatoes)
2:12 pm
crosshair
i will def take your advice and i shall serve with home made apple sauce i think
2:12 pm
MollyL
I agree Dorens. Too much egg and not enough onion.
2:13 pm
Dorens
yes i have done with baking powder too!
2:13 pm
crosshair
crossy makes notes...
2:13 pm
crosshair
drop one egg? just 2 maybe?
2:13 pm
HarryHood
I like it with applesauce - my wife likes with sour cream.
2:14 pm
welki
i vote applesauce
2:14 pm
crosshair
my mrs ADORES sour cream
2:14 pm
Dorens
I vote half with applesauce, half with sour cream.
2:14 pm
HarryHood
homemade applesauce rules - esp if it's chunky
2:15 pm
crosshair
i make mine semi-chunky and add a dash of fresh ground cinn stick
2:15 pm
HarryHood
44 left and nbt
2:16 pm
Dorens
And yes homemade is always best! I'd try one egg and see how it works. And remember to squeeze out as much water from the potatoes as you can. Otherwise you have to keep adding flour (or matzoh meal) cause the batter gets watery. Grate the potatoes by hand if possible--my grandmother swore a bit of blood improved the flavor :-)
2:16 pm
crosshair
yes,i have several sizes of hand graters
2:16 pm
HarryHood
and they don't freeze well for some reason.
2:17 pm
crosshair
have all the diff graters cause my mrs demands cheese on everything lol
2:17 pm
MollyL
Nothing "potato" freezes well. I think because of the water content. They defrost too mushy.
2:19 pm
crosshair

2:19 pm

broke down and listed with 17 to go

I wish I could listen to your lungs, welki.

i do too, scrabbs. i bet you could hear them without a scope
2:33 pm
crosshair
what is wrong welki
2:34 pm
Scrabbler
Rattles and wheezes? That makes me even more suspicious of pneumonia. You need an erythromycin-type antibiotic.
2:34 pm

i am used to my lungs rattling and popping and generally souinding like a box of rice krispies with milk
2:34 pm

i've had a nasty cold for a few weeks, crossy. doc says it's 'nothing,' but it's sure more than nothing.
2:35 pm

it's the season. I've had rasps and wheezes for a month now.
2:35 pm

has a doc listened to your chest welki?

2:36 pm

go back,if it saves scarring if it has blossomed into something more..it is worth it
2:36 pm
welki
i'm old school and hate missing work. i was off for almost two weeks at the beginning of the month and now today. if i take off from work, it's something.
2:37 pm
Scrabbler
Harry, see a doc. A cold should be gone in 2 wks and, as you have discovered, cold + cough meds are worthless!
2:37 pm
welki
it's like bringing your car to the mechanic, though. when i go there, the cough won't present and the chest noise will go away
2:38 pm
welki
harry's got a bunch of kids, too ... important you get that looked at before the whole family comes down with whatever it is you have
2:38 pm
HarryHood
went to a doc at the beginning, when me and my wife's hearing went out. We were on augmentin, then z-pack....now the viruses are just circulating around the house
2:38 pm
Scrabbler
If I suspect pneumonia but do not hear it then I order a chest x-ray.
2:38 pm

(although one of the kids probably gave it to you to being with :)

scrabbs, this doc is a piece of work ... he misses lots of things. like my diabetes. and sleep apnea. but physicians are so scarce, you pretty much have to stick with one, if you can find one
2:40 pm
Scrabbler
Enjoy, Hood.
2:40 pm
Scrabbler
How far would you have to drive to find a better doc?
2:41 pm
welki
the entire provincial system is like this, scrabb .. so i suppose to saskatchewan :)
2:41 pm
welki
you can walk into a clinic, but wait all day (and i'm not exaggerating)
2:42 pm
Scrabbler
So many of my colleagues embarrass me--poor istening skills, poor people skills, poor clinical skills.
2:42 pm
welki
i do have one good thing to say about him, though ... when you have a an appt at a certain time, it's at that time. he doesn't keep people waiting (other than the odd emerg, and you can't help that)
2:42 pm
sadie52
I am glad it is easier here in states to find a dr one can work with it took me several tries and im grateful for the ones i have
2:43 pm

So, you don't wait long to be disappointed?

he reads from a rehearsed script, scrabbs ... it's like having a convo with a can of peas

that's correct. i am disappointed promptly

Do you all have to click in the word box after each word you add, in order to enter the next word? When I played a few months ago, the cursor would automatically blink in the box. Thanx
5:10 pm
MollyL
If you hit ENTER after adding a word, the cursor returns to the box. If you click on the ADD box it does not.
5:11 pm
PeggySue
I tried that already but I still have to click to put the cursor back in the box.......maybe its a setting on my computer?
5:12 pm
MollyL
Don't know. What browser do you use?
5:12 pm
PeggySue
Explorer
5:14 pm
MollyL
You could try another browser. I use Firefox and Chrome and there is no cursor problem in either of them.
5:20 pm
fuzzybunny
PeggySue, I have the same problem with IE. Have not been able to fix it either.
5:20 pm
PeggySue
Thanx fuzzy & Molly......it used to work, oh well. I just want to be able to rattle off all the words I see without using the mouse ;-)

7:13 pm
MollyL
*Refrains from making stiff mast comments*
7:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne
When I expressed my shock, the girl said "you're in Vegas- in a casino-on the strip" like I was stupid
7:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I WAS stupid.

7:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I hate Starbucks.
7:13 pm

7:14 pm

Starbucks is okay if you like a tablespoon of coffee mixed with half a cup of sugar and half a cup of cream and flavorings.
7:14 pm
lbdawger
i thought ru's avatar was a wort hog...didn't click on it to see the whole thing.
7:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne
We found a cool cafe off the strip called "The Beat"
7:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne
You have to tell them not to put sugar in, Molly.
7:15 pm
rururocks
I wouldn't drink starbucks for anything.. it's awful
7:15 pm
lbdawger
i like starbucks frappeccino's but that's about all. their regular coffee tastes burnt
7:15 pm
rururocks
<---coffee purist
7:15 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I drink it near where I work- the only cafe close by.
7:15 pm
kje
I drink it when I travel... better than most hotel coffee
7:15 pm
MollyL
All I get at Starbucks, the occasional time I'm there, is black coffee. I'm not a purist, but I have been called a bean snob.
7:15 pm
rururocks
those are 10,000 calories lbd
7:15 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I drank it in London.

I like fresh ground Dunkin.
7:16 pm
lbdawger
i know, ru. don't get them but maybe once every other year...that's about how often i get close to a starbucks
7:16 pm
Kaplan the Magne
In London, at the B&B's, the Americans bail on breakfast- baked beans and tea- and head to Starbucks with relief.
7:16 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I only drink their iced decafs.

I don't mind the brit breakfast... interesting
7:18 pm

Well, some people think eggs and greasy sausages for breakfast is gross too.
7:18 pm
rururocks
<---I do
7:18 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Give me an honest bran muffin any day.
7:18 pm
lbdawger
i agree with that, kap. it is gross.
7:19 pm
rururocks
I've never had a dishonest muffin
7:19 pm
kje
it is eggs, beans, toast, tomato... not so bad in the big scheme of international breakfasts
7:19 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I never could understand how people could put sausages in their mouths an hour after waking up.
7:19 pm
kje
I'm not a fan of the big carb breakfast
7:19 pm
uusue2
and blood sausage - can't forget the blood sausage!
7:19 pm
rururocks
how would you know when a muffin is lying anways?

7:21 pm

That's strange. I sent it overnight, addressed RURUROCKS - SOMEWHERE IN CALIFORNIA
7:21 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I'll take an oatmeal raisin muffin.

7:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne
It was disturbing to see girls my daughters' age dressed up like hookers.
7:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Not to worry, I was told. They ARE hookers.
7:23 pm
uusue2
<--- has not actually had a muffin in quite a while

If I ever decide I want to go to hell, while I'm still alive, I'll go to Vegas
7:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Yeah, there were.
7:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne
It was research. We just went with the flow.
7:24 pm
rururocks
I have no interest in Vegas.. but glad you had a good time
7:24 pm

rururocks
jeez.. she goes to bed early that one
7:27 pm
Kaplan the Magne
So do I. Here's another think I can't figure. How can strip shows be erotic if you know the boobs are fake?
7:28 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Not that I went to a strip show. We saw Jersey Boys.
7:28 pm
lbdawger
night, kje.
7:28 pm
rururocks
good question.. nothing appealing about fake boobs
7:28 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I go to bed early too but I am still on Vegas time.
7:29 pm
lbdawger
i'm not sure the boobs are erotic.
7:29 pm

I would like to have gone to Vegas in a time machine.

I am going to make a clean breast of it, Ruru.
7:30 pm

Didn't Sinatra sing "Thanks for the Mammaries?"

7:32 pm
Kaplan the Magne
You are making me a nervous rack.
7:33 pm
Kaplan the Magne
It was indeed Bob Hope.
7:35 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Do you remember being in 4th grade and learning about Lake Titicaca? Should they really expect kids to handle that?

He might have been an honorary rat. Mickey Rooney too.
7:37 pm

hey Min -- down to 9 and stalled. Considering looking at lickety for a change
9:42 pm
Minveryork
I have been stalled at four words since 8:52 stidmama
9:42 pm
Jacula
I've been reading the chat re Lickety. Is the site safe or not? I wouldn't dare risk it when there's a warning on it as my techie son would kill me if I did.
9:42 pm
stidmama
well, I do hope that you recover soon, Jac. No fun to be achy and foggy.
9:42 pm
stidmama
wow Min. would be happy to help if I could...

Minveryork
I can stay for 15 more minutes to help clue if needed.
9:52 pm
Jacula
Tiggsey thinks it's very funny to curl his paws around your ankles when you're on your way down a flight of steps or stairs.
9:52 pm
Jacula
Well done Min!
9:52 pm
herinfernallady
awwww
9:53 pm
stidmama
YAY Min!!!
9:53 pm
Jacula
herin - whaddayamean, awwww?? He could kill me one day!
9:53 pm
herinfernallady
Is there only one Fy?
9:54 pm
Jacula
Yes - only one fy.
9:54 pm
herinfernallady
The cat clearly loves you :D
9:55 pm
herinfernallady
Obviously the cat hasn't realised taht killing the food monkey is a bad thing
9:55 pm
Jacula
Well he does bring me beheaded and disembowelled things...
9:56 pm
Jacula
Or, even worse, half beheaded and half disembowelled, so still just about alive things...:-(((
9:57 pm
herinfernallady
yep pandora does that with bugs
9:57 pm
Jacula
Herin - I guess your cats are indoor cats?
9:57 pm
herinfernallady
Yes they are
9:58 pm
Jacula
Well, my cat isn't and so he does worse. My old cat, though a skilled hunter in her day, was quite old when she came to me and made herself an indoor girl.
9:59 pm
Jacula
I'm waiting for the day when my 'hunter cat' wants to be an indoor boy, but I doubt it will happen.
9:59 pm
herinfernallady
They can't go outside they are too stupid
10:00 pm
Jacula
Herin - are they allowed outside anyway where you are in Aus?
10:00 pm
herinfernallady
Yes
10:01 pm
herinfernallady
But only in the day
10:01 pm
Jacula
There's no such thing as a stupid cat - unless they have brain damage.
10:01 pm
herinfernallady
Yes there is. Trust me my two are
10:02 pm
Jacula
Only in the day... So, what happens if they don't come home by nighfall?
10:02 pm
herinfernallady
Well you can get fined
10:03 pm
Jacula
*nighTfall, I meant.
10:03 pm
Jacula
That doesn't seem very fair.
10:03 pm
herinfernallady
Bullshit.
10:03 pm
herinfernallady
Sorry that is fair if you are awoken at 3am because you cat is going crazy because a cat is outside yowling.
10:04 pm
herinfernallady
Also cats do mass damage to native specices
10:04 pm
Jacula
Oh, okay.
10:04 pm
herinfernallady
I have had to lock my cat up in the bathroom because of a cat outside in the mids of the night lossing its little brain
10:06 pm
Jacula
Cats often stay out at night here but don't often wakes people by yowling. Yes, damage to native species is a huge problem - but a bigger one in Aus., of course. However, cats are a law unto themselves, and if you've let your cat out, you can't be sure of it returning when YOU want it to.
10:06 pm
Jacula
So, that's what I meant by no fair.
10:06 pm
herinfernallady
You can by feeding it at night
10:07 pm
herinfernallady
I also believe that you should at least lock the cats up in a giant run if you can't ahve them inside at night
10:08 pm
Jacula
Hmm, in UK that doesn't always work. Cats often 'play' people (neighbours) for food - more food - and so don't always feel the need to come home when the spoon is banged on the side of the foodbowl. Having said that, it works more often than it doesn't.
10:10 pm
herinfernallady
I don't like the idea of cats roaming about at night because of destroying the environment, getting into fights or sadly getting run over
10:11 pm
Jacula
When Beloved and I were in Devon last summer we saw a cottage in a small village with the most brilliant garden and run for their Siamese cats. It was to prevent theft of the cats. A wire run came out of the roof and went across and around the top of the garden and then down and into the house at ground floor level. Never seen anything quite like that before!
10:11 pm
Minveryork
Since nobody needs clues, I am retiring for the night.
10:11 pm

10:11 pm
Minveryork
Goodnight to my fellow babblers! I'll see you tomorrow
10:12 pm
Jacula
Goodnight Min. See you next grid. Sleep well!
10:12 pm
herinfernallady
Jac that is a great idea. Also stops them eating things
10:13 pm
Jacula
Yes, it was good herin - must've cost a fortune to set up, though!
10:13 pm
herinfernallady
Better thana squished kitty
10:14 pm
Jacula
Yes, indeed!
10:15 pm
herinfernallady
Well I am done. I am going to pry a cat out from under my legs and get the laundry in and done
10:16 pm
Jacula
Can you stick my laundry in to do, too, please? The pile is growing as I flail around in my sickbed. LOL
10:17 pm
herinfernallady
Mine is done it is on the line
10:17 pm
herinfernallady
