hi aloyisius could your name be anymore complicated?

could be that the new contacts won't irritate your eyes, scrab - maybe time to give them another change

many get in the nasty habit of taking the steriod in combination with the ventolin only till everything stabilizes then revert to just the rescue inhaler then it all goes downhill again.i know there are some new ones on the market but have not used them as the side effects give me the case of the horrors

You guys make me glad I never had kids! Here's a boomerang story for you: BIL's oldest son, announced a few months ago that he had neglected to pay about 20 years worth of income taxes. He has now moved back in with his parents (he's 41 years old). He is ignoring all the mail from the IRS.
12:16 pm
LeslieAnn
yikes judi
12:17 pm
onyx
we are venting.
12:17 pm
crosshair
i have a friend,he had a 3 bdrm house in town here,and all 3 kids moved back in with all the gf,s and bf,s so he walked up to the eldest,sold him the home for a dollar and him and him and the wife moved out instead and left it to the kids...seemed easier that way\
12:17 pm
crosshair
not good judi..there is jail time waiting for him
12:17 pm
Judi
His father paid for an initial consultation with a lawyer and the lawyer spelled out what needed to be done IMMEDIATELY. He still has done nothing.
12:19 pm
Judi
The 41 year-old is in complete shut down/denial mode. His parents are nagging him to go see a shrink. He just does NOTHING. He has no prior criminal record, but I'm sure he's going to jail. You just don't ignore the IRS.
12:19 pm
crosshair
imagine that all 3 kids back home and both daughters pregnant and the one son dating a 40 year old..i would move as well
12:20 pm
crosshair
then he will go to jail
12:20 pm
onyx
one big happy family!?
12:20 pm
crosshair
he has entered a fatalism mode,and it is hard to snap someone out of that judi\
12:21 pm
Judi
What's so sad is, he's educated and intelligent. He has just never had much ambition or responsibility. And, dare I say it, overly permissive and coddling parents.
12:21 pm
crosshair
onyx,i think the mom and dad live out east now and are quite happy lol
12:22 pm

indeed judi
12:23 pm
Judi
All I can think of is, if that had been me that showed up at the door and gave my father that story, he would have laughed in my face and said, "though sh*t". It's your mess, deal with it." Believe me, tough love really pays off.
12:24 pm
onyx
sometimes parents can't be blamed. kids make their own choices. their own mistakes.
12:25 pm
crosshair
i make my son fight for many things,then i am easy going on all educational things,stuff for his co-op course etc..it balances well
12:25 pm
Judi
True, onyx. However, his parents didn't make him move out until he was 26. He was stunned. He thought he had done something to piss them off. They just said, No, it's time for you to leave the nest.
12:26 pm
onyx
in his defense, my son wants me to just leave him alone. he wants to do things his own way
12:27 pm
Judi
Independence is good, onyx. Self-sufficiency should always be nutured. Apathy, however, should always be given a good swift kick in the arse.
12:27 pm
Judi
*nurtured* rather.
12:27 pm
onyx
you are right. i don't like hiss decisions but they are his
12:30 pm

True reward is when they come home to visit some day, get that deer in the headlights look and say, "y''know what, mom/dad? You were so right about x-y-z."

woe hego -2 days in a row! hi
12:58 pm
hego
I always seem to just miss you.
12:58 pm
hootowl
i need the yos! only have one
12:58 pm
hego
But I am here at least 3 times a week.
12:59 pm
hootowl
Timing is all - but I lurk a lot and still miss you!
12:59 pm
hego
Well good to run into you now.
1:00 pm
hego
And the yo's seem tough.
1:00 pm
hootowl
congrats kje
1:00 pm
kje
all start with the same frst 3 letters, hego
1:00 pm
hego
YAY!!! KJE!!
1:01 pm
hego
ty I see that.
1:02 pm
hego
I was looking for actual words. lol
1:03 pm
kje
I am making bread...and realized as I needed the dough that it didn;t seem sticky enough... the realized I had used the white whole wheat flour rather than the unbleached all purpose
1:03 pm
kje
odds it will still be OK and not hard as a rock?
1:03 pm
kje
well, hego... you should know better by now!
1:04 pm
hego
It will be interesting to see how the bread comes out.
1:04 pm
hego
could be okay.
1:06 pm
kje
went ahead and let it rise and will bake it - we shall see
1:06 pm
kje
it is rising - but not as high as the next loaf I made to replace it
1:06 pm
hego
If it raises okay, it should be alright. good luck.
1:06 pm
kje
(has to be decent as it is for guests)
1:08 pm
kje
love the smell of yeast at work
1:08 pm
kje
I think I will let it rise longer maybe?
1:09 pm
hego
That may not make a difference
1:09 pm
kje
or will that overproof it.... any bakers here? I don't usually make bread
1:10 pm
kje
but I am a cake wizard - lol
1:10 pm
hego
I don't think you should leave it longer.
1:11 pm
hego
I forget the exact reason why, though.
1:12 pm
hego
but if it isn't raising, leaving it longer doen't usually do much.
1:12 pm
hego
And can make it collapse.
1:14 pm
hootowl
white whole wheat - sorry left to open door. No regular flour at all?
1:14 pm
hootowl
and what is white whole wheat? sounds like an oxymoron
1:15 pm
hego
it does, doesn't it?
1:15 pm
bichon
I've bought white whole wheat flour and baked with it. But, I don't know what, exactly, it consists of
1:15 pm
hootowl
kje - give it a gentle poke, if it leaves a print bake it
1:16 pm
hego
there you go!
1:16 pm
hootowl
if really whole wheat it will not rise as much as the regular flour
1:16 pm
cybernan
did you punch it down after the first rising and let it rise again?
1:17 pm
hego
I would just follow the directions and see what happens.
1:17 pm
hootowl
nan - not all recipes call for a double rise
1:17 pm
hego
I think this was the first raising.
1:18 pm
hootowl
over-rise will make big bubbles that will collapse.
1:18 pm
bichon
I used a bread machine and there's always a double rise. The whole wheat setting is about 4 hours including the bake
1:19 pm
hootowl
Never used on - like the kneading and punching and pulling - releases a lot of frustration :D
1:19 pm
hego
what the heck is the wo 5,20?
1:19 pm
cybernan
*bow to your knowledge, hoot -- only ever used the one recipe -- it made 5 loaves and you needed to punch it down when it doubled in size form it into loaves and let it rise again.
1:20 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Courted, hego.
1:20 pm
hego
that is normal bread making Nan.
1:20 pm
hego
ty Kap and hi.
1:20 pm
hootowl
nan a recipe like that would have doble rise because you'd use more yeast. also depends on yeast
1:20 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Hi.
1:21 pm
hootowl
Most of mine are double rise, only a few with one
1:21 pm
hego
If I stopped baking and paid attention, maybe I would get these words. lol
1:21 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Hi. I have all the f's.
1:21 pm
cybernan
haven't made bread on a regular basis since the kids were taking lunches to school. As I recall it only used 1 package of double rising yeast
1:22 pm
hootowl
Ok = 8 left and hungry - lunch time. bbl

Dorens

2:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

72 Temple Owl

2:05 pm
Dorens

It's froo froo cheese Hoot. I had never heard of it until reading here.
2:08 pm
hootowl
I want a repeat of trip in spring. BF has vacation and unless there is another hurricane or earthquake we will be heading for PA!
2:08 pm
hootowl
How can cheese be froo froo?
2:09 pm
MollyL
Don't know. That is how we refer to fancy stuff 'round these parts.
2:10 pm
hootowl
Whatever those parts are.
2:10 pm
hego
whose parts?
2:11 pm
MollyL
It means where I come from.
2:11 pm
hootowl
I have heard rumors of $50 per pound cheese but never seen one. Not even on food network
2:11 pm
hootowl
where Molls is
2:11 pm
hego
does it have truffles, I wonder?
2:12 pm
hootowl
can't see it. AL cheeses are fermented milk, what make one froo froo
2:12 pm
hootowl
That did occur to me but never heard of one
2:12 pm
MollyL
Google says 15 year old cheddar goes for that much. Can't say I really want cheese that has been around for that long.
2:13 pm
hego
usually the process or an ingredient
2:13 pm
hootowl
I vaguely recall once seeing a list of world cheeses w/pic but long ago
2:13 pm
hego
you have to pay for 15 years rent for the cheese. .; )
2:14 pm
hootowl
I can't imagine a cheddar that would be edible at that point
2:15 pm
MollyL
La Tur is the new brie. For the wine and cheese crowd.
2:15 pm
hego
Must be funky.
2:15 pm
hego
very snobbish, I would say.
2:15 pm
hootowl
what's new about it?
2:16 pm
hego
I doubt I'm classy enugh to rate such a cheese.
2:16 pm
MollyL
When I say "new" I mean what is now currently popular. Man, tough room today.
2:16 pm
hootowl
I have no class
2:17 pm
hego
We knew what you meant, Molls
2:17 pm
hootowl
well if you'd said that to start we'd have understood
2:17 pm
MollyL
I am hopelessly un-hip because I don't even like Brie.
2:18 pm
hego
We're prtesting food trends, or something.
2:18 pm
hootowl
I am getting silly - not good still need 5
2:18 pm
hootowl
why not? It's at least a mild cheese
2:18 pm

2:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
no. brie. have had it baked, if very young and with fruit is ok but i would never buy it
2:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
but if aged, i do not like it at all.
2:26 pm
hootowl
Different tastes - we have it for lunch now & then
2:27 pm
72 Temple Owl
the la tour sounded like pure creamy goodness without the brie aged taste'
2:27 pm
hootowl
supermarkeys have 2 brands - one is president -yuk

72 Temple Owl

2:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

2:30 pm
hootowl
Actually I like most cheeses and none of them ever last long
2:30 pm
stidmama
hey again hoot! and TO! (it's an owl invasion)
2:30 pm
hootowl
the ile de france has just a vague suggestion of acid and a nice smooth taste
2:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
i as well.but i must go now, bfore the sun goes down and it gets even colder.i am frustrated beacuse i am trying to open a bottole of wine for cooking, and cannot. i was a little hesitant to ask my neighbors to help at 10 in the am. that is a tad early to be tippling. ;)
2:32 pm
hootowl
They don't understand cooking with wine?
2:32 pm
72 Temple Owl
kidding
2:32 pm
hootowl
narrow-minded.
2:32 pm
72 Temple Owl
actually, my neighbors had company (young men)and i found gtwo empty beer cases on the lawn this morning.
2:32 pm
hootowl
I tried a few recipes but din't like the harsh taste
2:33 pm
stidmama
I hope the rest of your day will go well, TO.
2:33 pm
hootowl
well go ahead if you have a deadline - nice talking
2:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
the crap does not stopwith those folks. actually they were on the border and are now at my driveway
2:34 pm
hootowl
sounds like you need a fence or a large dog
2:34 pm
stidmama
We are likely not going anywhere today... our little road and the driveway especially are very slippery. Main road if we could get to it wouldn't be too bad. Oh well. So I shall babble a bit and then back to work on other things.
2:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
ty stiddy and bye to all and happy babbling!
2:35 pm
stidmama
I vote large dog... one that looks ferocious but is actually friendly.
2:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
they have one already
2:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
and this was from car parked in front of my house.
2:35 pm
hootowl
Then get a very large tomcat!
2:36 pm
72 Temple Owl
hoot, ty but there is nothing to be done. if i caught them in the act i could maybe do something, but the mother does not hold them responsible for anything.
2:37 pm
hootowl
ok - now go before it's too late
2:38 pm
hootowl
well you could shove it back onto their property
2:39 pm
hootowl
stid - I was just leaving but if you need help - I'll be back and forth. Have things to do
2:39 pm
stidmama
thanks hoot - I am only down to 72 so it'll be a while before I want help. :-)
2:53 pm
stidmama
working on it, LA -- how are you this afternoon?
2:53 pm
LeslieAnn
good-o stid, yourself?
2:54 pm
stidmama
not bad. asthma in full force today, no idea why. otherwise, it's a good day to do research and think about how to meet the concerns of the students in the small school I am applying to...
2:54 pm
LeslieAnn
good to hear about stidkid #2's new job!
2:55 pm
stidmama
isn't that great! he actually starts end of next month, which will give him some time to get into the new semester before adding it to his schedule.
2:55 pm
stidmama
it will be a good 8-10 weeks of hard work for him!
2:57 pm
LeslieAnn
ok found sw7. having the characteristics of pigs?
2:57 pm
stidmama
sw 7/52: silly word -- sw + "motel" in olden days + first two letters of ocular organ
2:57 pm
stidmama
LOL I like your clue!
2:58 pm
stidmama
I am trying to decide whether to try taking the stikid in to his orchestra rehearsal -- he missed last week because he had a migraine.
2:59 pm
stidmama
I think I should at least give it a try. If I can get out to the main road, it should be safe enough.
2:59 pm
LeslieAnn
aw poor kiddo
2:59 pm
stidmama
It's just that gully in between that has me worried.
3:00 pm
bichon
motel in olden days?
3:01 pm
LeslieAnn
no room at the ***
3:01 pm
stidmama
yes, before there were cars, there were places that travellers stayed...
3:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Stopped at a little *** on the road- a tavern with rooms to let...
3:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
That's better, Leslie.
3:01 pm
stidmama
hey kaplan and bichon!
3:02 pm
stidmama
one more until 50 and then I take a break...
3:02 pm
LeslieAnn
just have an7 left
3:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne
29 left- just the hard ones
3:02 pm
bichon
tyvm, was confusing the ocular organ with the auditory
3:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne
an7 is stupid- bad English, sort of like nohow.
3:03 pm
LeslieAnn
all i know is it's a compound word, and antfeed doesn't work.
3:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne

6:23 pm
crosshair
Suppose for a moment that the automobile industry had developed at the same rate as computers and over the same period: how much cheaper and more efficient would the current models be? If you have not already heard the analogy, the answer is shattering. Today you would be able to buy a Rolls-Royce for $2.75, it would do three million miles to the gallon, and it would deliver enough power to drive the Queen Elizabeth II. And if you were interested in miniaturization, you could place half a dozen of them on a pinhead. -- Christopher Evans

Suggestions on a postcard, please, to Soodle, Ireland.

Step One: Don't look where you are going. Step Two: Hook toe on chair that is sticking out in a way that it does not belong. I don't recommend it. It was four weeks of annoying pain. And the one slipper and one shoe look leaves something to be desired.

howdy
7:20 pm
MollyL
Whatever you do, DON'T go to the emergency room if you think one of your little toes is broken. There is nothing they can do for it and they will twist your foot into a position that will make you pass out in pain in order to x-ray it. Find a nice doctor who will prescribe pain meds.
7:21 pm
herinfernallady
The amount of times I used to nearly trip on Lurk the cat was not good
7:23 pm

Oh, for heavens sake, Molly. I don't intend to actually break my toe!! But, its good to have the gorey details if I eve need to use it as an excuse not to go to work...(increasingly likely at 01.15 am on a Sunday night/Monday morning :-P
7:24 pm
herinfernallady
My birth sisters are being funny. One of them tagged all the girls on Facebook with a pic f twins and the caption ''Dude just joking you are not adopted''. I said That is funny because I escapedv
7:24 pm
MollyL
Oh in that case it's "I think I broke my toe, the doctor said to stay off it for a day." Then wean the story down to it was just a fracture.
7:25 pm
MollyL
Sisters can be funny that way.
7:26 pm

Nope, I'm thinking more like 'I broke my toe, by hooking toe on chair that is sticking out in a way that it does not belong'.

The reason I say that you could use the diary farmers variety is that it is the same thing but cheeper
7:42 pm
herinfernallady
That was my other suggestion natropath unless you are like my mum and nothing works
7:43 pm
Soodle
Wow. Just googled it. It looks good, but I truly believe that topical solutions are a stop-gap when it comes to psoriasis. The main problem comes from within the body.
7:43 pm
herinfernallady
But it makes you feel this scaly. I use my friends recipe and it works but it is home made and stuff
7:44 pm
Soodle
I have tried everything Molly. I gave up alcohol, dairy products. carbs, everything. I know in my heart and soul its all stress related.
7:45 pm
Soodle
If I could de-stress, I know I would be grand....
7:45 pm
herinfernallady
I use goat soap but as I said I am lucky my friend is a natropath and makes all skin care stuff.
7:46 pm
welki
soodle - *butting in* - my daughter had psoriasis as a kid - you need to use a product that contains urea, like Eucerin. Doesn't cure it, like you said, but will ease the symptoms
7:46 pm
Soodle
Hey, but thanks for the suggeston, and I will try the udder cream, Herin.
7:46 pm
welki
psoriasis, on a large scale, is hereditary - blame the dna
7:46 pm

Stress will definitely manifest in the skin and the hair. *Sends de-stressing waves of peace to Soodle*

hey, stid - said MY kid had it, so yep, pile it on *lol*
7:48 pm
Soodle
Flippin' DNA!!!! My siblings got the good looks, the brains etc.. I got the psoriasis. Go figure!!
7:48 pm
welki
hmm - on second thought, i don't have psoriasis. blame the other responsible party :)
7:48 pm

The name Bag Balm is ten shades of wrong. Guys refer to their scrotum as "my bag"
7:48 pm
stidmama
I had very little acne as a child/teen, but one of my kids has struggled with it for years and years -- even had that "infant acne" -- my guilt is incredible over that even...
7:48 pm
herinfernallady
The other thing is bathing in oats
7:48 pm
stidmama
I bet it would work on those sorts of bag issues too, Molly... *innocent mama look*
7:48 pm

Oats are very good for the skin. They do wonders for poison ivy and allergic rashes.

Oat bag. Sorry i don't have my witches bible )GRIN) near me

7:50 pm

I had no acne issues as a teen and two of my sons had to take the heavy duty acne medication to get rid of cystotic acne.

Knocking on for 2.00am here. Not a broken toe in sight, so I guess its work for me in the AM. Goodnight all, and thanks for your suggestions.

Don't know about wisdom Stid, but I do my best to throw the humor around when I can.

Do you think a Pandora style bracelet would be a lovely future 21st birthday present for my friends little girl on all the things she was interested in on her Birthday each year
7:56 pm
MollyL
She hasn't been around much lately Welki. Last I heard, she was waiting on a friend to come visit.
7:56 pm
herinfernallady
Hi Pickle
7:56 pm
Picklesny
hi, herin
7:56 pm
welki
thanks, molly - glad she's okay, just waiting for company to call :)
7:57 pm

Not sure Herin. I'm not really into the Pandora craze.
7:57 pm
welki
hi pickles (ta7 = sort of beige-y)
7:57 pm
herinfernallady
I mean like Pandora. Charm Bracelet?
7:58 pm
welki
you mean that you'll buy it now, when she's little, and add to it each year?
7:58 pm
MollyL
Yep, I knew what you meant. It's all the rage here, but I can't quite understand why.
7:58 pm
herinfernallady
I like the idea of Pandora for no fiddling
7:58 pm
herinfernallady
I like the idea of Pandora for no fiddling
7:58 pm
herinfernallady
Yes Welki.
7:59 pm
welki
wow - that's one heck of a long term committment
7:59 pm
MollyL
According to the guys in my office, those charms are not cheap.
7:59 pm
herinfernallady
like on her first birthday I bought her bath crayons,
8:00 pm
welki
how old is she now, herin?
8:00 pm
herinfernallady
So I would get a charm of crayons. Like a story quilt. She is only a year and a bit old
8:00 pm
herinfernallady
Hi Science
8:01 pm
welki
sounds like a great idea, but if you're looking for a devil's advocate, i'd suggest that (1) friendships can turn the other way over time and (2) Pandora-style bracelets might not be popular in 20 years
8:01 pm
sciencegeek
I am 57a out but too tired.to hunt!
8:02 pm
sciencegeek
Welki!
8:02 pm
herinfernallady
But Charm bracelets are. I have my mothers Silver pennies braclet
8:03 pm
welki
then go for it, it's a sweet idea :)
8:03 pm

And we have been friends for err 9 plus years now.

New York is the only place you will get a good one, Welki.
8:12 pm
herinfernallady
Well I must be off. I have to go and do house hold chores
8:18 pm
Dorens
that's true molly.. but some new ork suburbs do a good job too
8:19 pm
Jacula
Is wondering what a potato k**** is? Hello folks.
8:20 pm
Jacula
Ah! Just seen welki's clue below that and know now. I've finished - just came in for a nosey around.
8:20 pm
Dorens
one of the good ridiculously fattening jewish ethnic foods
8:21 pm
Jacula
Actually, I still don't really know what that form of potato dish is. Anyone like to enlighten me as to what the recipe is?
8:21 pm
Jacula
Hi Dorens & Molly.
8:21 pm
Dorens
seasoned mashed potatoes that are made into a sort of pattie and fried
8:22 pm
Jacula
Ah! Thanks Dorens. Any cheese in it?
8:22 pm
Dorens
my mother in law used to first stuff them with a spiced meat mixture - heavenly
no cheese.. wouldn't be able to serve them on a table with meat if there were
8:23 pm
MollyL
Hmm, the ones I have had are like a flaky pastry stuffed with seasoned potato filling. Must be some other ethnic version.
8:24 pm
Picklesny
there's meat or potato ones for a meat meal or dairy
8:25 pm
Dorens
no that is right. they often have a pastry around them. my mother in laws were weird
8:25 pm
Jacula
Dorens - cheese not allowed with meat ever or only at certain times?
8:25 pm
Jacula
Dorens - I like that phrase, 'my mother in laws were weird'. How many have you had?
8:26 pm
Picklesny
if you are kosher no meat with dairy
8:27 pm
Picklesny
separate dishes too
8:27 pm
Jacula
I've had lots of 'potential' mother-in-laws, and most of them were weird. I wonder how I seem to my children's b/fs and g/fs?
8:27 pm
Dorens
haha.. sorry i forgot my apostrophe!!
8:27 pm
Jacula
Picklesny - thanks for the info. I really should know that, given all the Jewish friends I have.
8:27 pm
Dorens
i know lots of jewish people.. very few keep kosher kitchens
8:28 pm
Picklesny
what's the use of friends around the world if you can't share some culture
8:28 pm
Jacula
Pickles - got it on the nail!
8:29 pm
Picklesny
true, dorens, very expensive and a lot of work. excuse me 4 sets of dishes if you are keeping kosher
8:29 pm
Dorens
but some (like my mother in law in fact) followed the dietary laws in her own fashion. like.. i couldn't butter my bread or put butter on a baked potato if meat was on the table... but she would let me take it to the kitchen counter and do it there, then bring it to the table and eat with everyone. No one could drink milk with meat sandwiches. But she made lasagna all the time.. meat and cheese in the same dish!!
8:30 pm
Jacula
The problem with 'kosher' when related to meat, is that it causes suffering to the animal in question.
8:30 pm
Dorens
how is that jac?
8:32 pm
wht
Good evening Babblers.
8:32 pm
gapeach
Good evening, wht.
8:32 pm
Picklesny
hi. wht
8:33 pm
Jacula
Dorens - LOL! That sounds like the mixed up messages my old head mistress gave us when she was teaching RE (Religious Education) and a wasp came into the classroom. She got tired of people screeching and swatting, and jumping around and so said, 'Just kill it!' It settled on a window and the girl nearest picked up the book to hand (The Bible) to kill it with. 'No! Don't use that!' yelled the Head. The girl opened her desk and swatted it with an atlas instead.
8:33 pm
gapeach
Was it a lovely day in MA, wht?
8:33 pm
MollyL
Some believe that the kosher slaughtering process causes more pain to an animal than the regular slaughtering process.
8:34 pm
wht
It was sunny but cold. But it was a lovely day because the Patriots won last night.
8:34 pm
MollyL
Hi Wht. Shut up about the Patriots. : P
8:34 pm
Jacula
Dorens - because a bullet to the brain leads to instant death. Having your throat cut takes longer.
8:34 pm

Sorry, I didn't know you were a Denver fan.
8:34 pm
gapeach
Ah, yes. It was here, as well.
8:35 pm
Dorens
oh. i'm not aware of that. i do know that koshering a chicken is a lot like brining a chicken, which is delicious
8:35 pm
Dorens
oh well. i guess so. but then again humans have been slaughtering and eating meat since before bullets were invented. tradition.....
8:35 pm
Jacula
Dorens - are you talking aout cooking methods rather than killing methods?
8:35 pm
MollyL
Denver fan in mourning. : (
8:36 pm
Jacula
Dorens - humans used to chop the heads off things to kill them.
8:36 pm
Dorens
yes. koshering a chicken is not slaughtering, but not cooking either. it is what some people do
8:36 pm
Dorens
yes, indeed. off with their heads!
8:36 pm
Mark Jones
Hello Babblers!
8:37 pm

Hello, Mark Jones.

Molly, I had expected it to be a closer game than it was.
8:37 pm

Glad to hear it, Mark.

Oh hey Jac, thanks for sharing. Will sleep with the lights on tonight.

The playoffs have been completely whack this year!
8:42 pm
Dorens
who do you think will end up playing in the superbowl mark?
8:42 pm
MollyL
<---Burns cheese head and tries to muster up some way to root for San Francisco to win the Superbowl
8:42 pm
Mark Jones
I have no idea, everything has changed. Underdogs are wi6!
8:43 pm
Jacula
Molly - sorry!
8:43 pm
Dorens
what is cheesehead molly? (i love cheese)
8:43 pm
wht
It will be easy to root for San Fransisco against the Giants.
8:44 pm
Dorens
in 6/39 -- how the girls got their extensions into their hair
8:44 pm
wht
A cheesehead is a generic name for a fan of the Green Bay Packers, because they are from Wisconsin.
8:44 pm
Jacula
Nice clue, Dorens!
8:44 pm
MollyL
A cheese head is what the Packers fans wear. A big, styrofoam wedge of cheese on their heads.
8:44 pm
Dorens
oh.. silly me. sorry

I've no idea what you lot are on about when you start talking sport, let alone US sport. LOL
8:46 pm
Mark Jones
Hmm. We are talking about football.
8:47 pm
wht
But American football, not what Jac would think of as football.
8:47 pm
Jacula
I think it's going to be a 200+ grid next, simply because the weekend is over.
8:47 pm
Mark Jones
That's true.
8:47 pm
Jacula
what - correct!
8:48 pm
Jacula
Mark - thanks - wasn't sure if it was 'football' or baseball.
8:48 pm
Jacula
wht, I meant, not what. Sorry!
8:48 pm
MollyL
That's odd. We Americans are very hip to UK sports.
8:49 pm
Mark Jones
Yes, I love both cricket and soccer, primarily.
8:49 pm
Jacula
Molly - maybe a lot of UK people are au fait with US sports, too, but I'm not one of them.
8:50 pm
MollyL
Some people just aren't into sport in general.
8:51 pm
Mark Jones
May I have the e on the last right column for NBT?
8:51 pm
Jacula
Cricket is extremely boring, but it's nice to sit on a village green and read and doze and eat scones with jam in the sunshine, and occasionally look up at the action. Soccer was exciting when George Best played but I've lost interest in it now.
8:52 pm
Mark Jones
Hmm. I think soccer is full of action, but it cannot compare to baseball or basketball.
8:52 pm
Jacula
ey4/6, Mark. Seeing orb with a consonant at the end that is not dee.
8:53 pm

And then switch the letters around for the other one.
8:53 pm
wht
clue for the fe5?
8:54 pm
MollyL
Hands down, I think golf is the most boring sport there is to watch. It may be fun to play, but I could pass out from boredom watching a golf match.
8:54 pm
Jacula
wht - fe5 - you might fake a sword lunge in order to confuse your opponent. You also see fe5 ruled paper.
8:54 pm
Jacula
Molly - yes, that is true re golf.
8:54 pm
Mark Jones
I agree Molly. I like to play golf, but I sleep when watching it
8:55 pm
Jacula
I can't play golf - I'm blooming hopeless at getting the ball in the hole!
8:56 pm
Jacula
Mind you, it might be fun to watch ME trying to play golf! LOL
8:56 pm
Mark Jones
Yes, probably. But I cannot stand watching Woods or Mickelson or whoever else play golf.
8:57 pm
rururocks
<--thought I heard Jac .. saying she putters around?
8:57 pm
Jacula
Surely chess must be the most boring thing to watch?

NO. Absolutely not. Chess is great to play and watch.
8:58 pm
Mark Jones
Hi ruru!
8:58 pm
