Mom

7:41 am

gramma

I didn't understand control Z.

7:42 am

lbdawger

control Z is a combination of key strokes that will un** the work you just did.

7:43 am

gramma

Oh, ty. I have that 1.

7:43 am

Mom

didn't know that control Z would do that. It was worth getting up this morning .... learned something new

7:43 am

gramma

That bottom u is evasive.

7:44 am

gramma

That was not a clue. Just a statement

7:44 am

7:47 am

gramma

peri, did you find the an7?

7:47 am

Mom

so glad you stuck around, moshemoo

7:48 am

Gee thanx honey

did you do something to your shoulder, moshe?

7:49 am

gramma

Oh I thought peri was looking for that. I guess I'll stop trying.

7:50 am

moshemoo

Not sure really could be Arthritis or due to my job all the lifting i do

7:51 am

lbdawger

heat and ice, rotating between the two. usually helps me when my joints go wonky on me

7:52 am

moshemoo

ok cheers. wonky i like that :)

7:54 am

Mom

I like Wonky as well

7:54 am

my joints, snap, crackle, pop, dislocate, seize up, and swell to make the remaining parts groan, weep, ro4,--i'm a one woman musical! lol

7:56 am

lbdawger

I loved the book, but i'm not sure about the people casted for the movie. they just don't fit the descriptions in the book.

7:57 am

Mom

I liked the book too. The reviews I found are not very kind

7:57 am

Mom

I agree with the cast. Can't picture Debbie Reynolds shooting a turkey

7:58 am

Mom

this site rated it 18/100

7:59 am

lbdawger

I think betty white would have made a better gramma

7:59 am

lbdawger

and stephanie is suppose to be blonde with BIG hair.

8:00 am

Mom

a much better choice

8:00 am

Mom

there is nothing big hair about Katharine Hiegl (sp)

8:01 am

lbdawger

i agree, as i said, the casting is all wrong.

8:04 am

Mom

8:04 am

Mom

yes, Evanovich

8:04 am

Mom

ANnie, Debbie Reynolds plays the Grandma

8:04 am

Read-Knit-Bake

Morning everyone. I think the readers of the series should have made suggestions to Evanovich about who should have played the characters....just as she has fans name her books. Just my thoughts. :)

8:04 am

crosshair

crossy is just starting the hunger games trilogy:).very good book so far.more for young adult,but still a very nice read

8:04 am

Anniebrook

good idea, RKB

8:04 am

lbdawger

i think the only character they casted right was Lula.

8:04 am

Mom

hello read-knit-bake. I agree

8:05 am

Anniebrook

Who plays Lula?

8:05 am

Mom

agreed, LBD

8:05 am

Christini

roan

8:05 am

lbdawger

By the looks of the cast, i don't think Evanovich had a say.

8:05 am

Christini

Oy, so sorry!

8:06 am

crosshair

i can see that read and knit,but still nice light reading

8:06 am

Read-Knit-Bake

ho + double letter + an ending.

8:13 am

periwinkle

Ilove the Stephanie Plum books. but the man they chose to play Morelli is all wrong. and is Debbie Reynolds the grandmother? I agree Betty White would have been a much better choice. I am pretty sure Stephanie's hair is brown not blonde and not too crazy about Catherine H. playing her.

8:13 am

crosshair

lets see..and ending..er,et,est,ier,ies,ene,ic,ice,e

10:59 am

MollyL

It's a cactus, but I'm never sure how well known the word is by definition.

11:00 am

flosey

just looked it up, would not have known

11:00 am

cybernan

ty molly -- thought that was a proper name

11:00 am

helensgirlkid

I think in N. America it's usually spelled with a g instead of the h.

11:01 am

mixi6

ty for the clue. even though I knew the cactus, i couldn't spell it.

11:02 am

MollyL

The silent g makes no sense to me.

11:03 am

Kaplan the Magne

the silent g is related to a throat sound in older languages.

11:04 am

Kaplan the Magne

I believe

11:04 am

Erda

It wouldn't necessarily make any sense to a 7-year old, Molly...

11:04 am

MollyL

What, like phlegm?

11:06 am

3 words left and still do not have nbs.. ugh

11:07 am

mixi, do you have st8/40

11:08 am

Kaplan the Magne

phantom autism

11:08 am

mixi6

no., nor the na's.

11:08 am

flosey

na8 is a continuation of na6

11:09 am

flosey

na6 - to be ill

11:09 am

mixi6

don't have that either.

11:09 am

Kaplan the Magne

it's not a "to be" ill. It is a noun- the thing that makes one ill.

11:10 am

Kaplan the Magne

sick to your stomach, mixi.

hi Dorens

2:16 pm

MollyL

Hi Doren, you're in the grid : )

2:16 pm

Dorens

it's rare to see a grid this size on a saturday afternoon with 30 minutes and no chat. and yes, molly, i found myself, but not the s for sand

2:17 pm

hego

we're all thinking hard. lol

2:17 pm

MollyL

Yes, but that is on the other side : )

2:17 pm

Dorens

exactly. i'm down to 92 and should list but feeing too lazy. looking at that s and i don't even have half of them. shame on me

2:18 pm

Dorens

ok. i have half now

2:18 pm

hego

even more t's

2:19 pm

Dorens

yes , but somehow i have more than half of them - don't list until i have at least half of each tile

2:19 pm

hego

aha

2:19 pm

hego

I have no rules

2:19 pm

hego

When I get bored, I list. lazy.

2:20 pm

Dorens

well i don't really either. but on a saturday i try to go as long as possible without listing. sometimes even no list

2:20 pm

hego

you're a good girl, Dorens. : )

2:21 pm

Dorens

haha, that is debatable hego, but thanks

2:21 pm

hego

2:22 pm

hego

my mother would have liked you. lol

2:22 pm

Dorens

at school i have babble expert, and i've found that on days that i have busy evenings scheduled, I will go straight to babble expert and knock out a great majority really quickly that way. why would she have liked me hego?

2:23 pm

hego

I find on the long ones I loose track and start entering the same words over again.

2:23 pm

hego

you have a good work ethic.

2:24 pm

Dorens

hmmm. guess that is true to some extent, but why is my house such a total wreck? (not to mention my life) I think it's cause i can't get off this damn computer, so where is the work ethic then?

2:25 pm

hego

I have the same problem..

2:25 pm

hego

it's such a good escape.

2:26 pm

Dorens

and now some friends at work have gotten me hooked on that stupid words for friends. so i have about ten games going there, ten on lexulous, have to do this every day, have to do sudoku every day, have to do quote puzzler every day. oh my goodness. i don't have time to read anymore?

2:26 pm

hego

do you have to7?

2:26 pm

Dorens

yes it is one of the two 7's i do have.. you need clue?

2:26 pm

Dorens

lots and lots of tain

2:27 pm

hego

hard to squeeze life in

2:27 pm

hego

Hmmm....

2:28 pm

Dorens

and my better half, or roommate, or whatever I call him is beginning to get exasperated with the fact that i won't put the computer down when we are talking. but how else can i get all these games done? and i can't do them when i'm cooking, going to the y, driving or sleeping!

2:29 pm

Dorens

it's very twisty (the to 7) it includes what you pay when you don't own your own home

2:29 pm

hego

found it ty

2:30 pm

hego

men are so clueless.

2:30 pm

hego

honestly!

2:31 pm

Dorens

of course if i'm cooking dinner and he's at the computer while i'm trying to talk to him I give him grief. but isn't that different? somehow?

2:31 pm

hego

of course!

2:31 pm

Dorens

oh, another of my psedo rules is that i really shouldn't list if i'm missing more than five 4 letter words.

2:32 pm

Dorens

which, of course, I am! even tho i'm down to 67

2:32 pm

hego

that's a hard rule

2:32 pm

hego

some 4's can be very elusive

2:33 pm

Dorens

this is true. and i don't always stick to these arbitrary stupid rules

2:33 pm

hego

nobody's looking

2:33 pm

hego

except maybe Molly.

2:33 pm

hego

and she won't tell

2:34 pm

hi all!

2:34 pm

Dorens

absolutely. ONe rule i must go by today is that i must, absolutely MUSt clean up my bedroom today

2:34 pm

Dorens

hi sue how are you?

2:34 pm

MollyL

<---Thumbs nose at arbitrary stupid rules

2:34 pm

uusue2

hi dorens, I am ok

2:35 pm

uusue2

having a blah day but I figure I am allowed one a week

2:35 pm

bichon

hi sue Molly Dorens

2:35 pm

Dorens

exactly molly. i do too. even tho i am sitting here making them up

2:35 pm

uusue2

hi bichon!

2:35 pm

Dorens

well, if you have to, i guess so sue. hi bich

2:35 pm

MollyL

Love the icon Bich : )

2:36 pm

bichon

ty, love yours too molly

2:36 pm

Dorens

i like both.

2:37 pm

Dorens

hey, if the letters on the keyboard start wearing out, does that mean i play too much babble, chat too much, should get a new lap top or all of the above?

2:38 pm

uusue2

all of the above, I am pretty sure :-)

2:38 pm

uusue2

at the very least you should treat yourself to a new laptop.

2:38 pm

sammysmom

nah.. dorens, just do what i do .. paint new letters on them

2:39 pm

Dorens

i've been thinking about it sue, but i am a mac person and they are really expensive. and i am seirously thinking of new treadmill which would probably be more important. altho the one i am looking at has a lip that i can place laptop on!

2:39 pm

bichon

we collect laptops at my house. Up to two already

2:39 pm

uusue2

ooh, so you could babble and exercise at the same time! Now THERE is a temptation!

2:40 pm

Dorens

i'm not nearly artisitc enough for that smom. would just not look aesthetically right on a macbook!!

2:40 pm

Dorens

i already have a bike that i babble on. have found, though, that i tend to get a better workout when i don't!

2:40 pm

MollyL

I can't type and treadmill at the same time. I watch movies on the DVD player

2:40 pm

uusue2

anyway I am going to wander off again. see you all later!

2:41 pm

Dorens

that is probably what i would do molly. biking is most likely easier to babble along with. walking/jogging is probably going to be netflix only

2:42 pm

MollyL

Well, if you're looking for something good to watch, I highly recommend the show "Touch" that just started. Awesome.

2:43 pm

Dorens

oh lord, i have so many shows that i am addicted to. i so don't want another . but you are probably right

2:44 pm

Dorens

wow. this is funny. both my first name and middle names are in the grid . think that is a first for me

2:44 pm

bichon

I DVR's it, but have yet to watch it. Am looking forward to seeing Keifer again

2:51 pm

MollyL

Cactus clothing???

2:51 pm

2:51 pm

Dorens

sa7 was clothing. i meant sa6!! maybe i need a nap

2:52 pm

Dorens

i mean sa7 was CACTUS. i mean sa6! i guess i really do need a nap

2:53 pm

Dorens

i'm down to 58. still missing 24 fours though. just call me fuzzybrain. i think i should either list or nap, or maybe both

2:53 pm

What is it with today? Everyone is tired. Must have been rough sleep for everyone last night.

3:54 pm

stidmama

I slept 12 hours, but have been up for about 6 already. Taught three days in a row, all different levels and ages. Yesterday was the best, but the 5th period class for that teacher always takes it out of me.

Hi Min

4:01 pm

stidmama

hey Min! welcome to the grid!

4:01 pm

doseffing

... so many problems ... but my biggest is never knowing what they know ... as a supply you have no credability with the kids ... so if you start to explain something and they can't follow because they did it differently ... you're doomed

4:02 pm

stidmama

that's true doseffing. My biggest issue the first time I step into a classroom is helping the kids be comfortable with my "credentials" -- usually by the second time I visit a classroom we are good to go because it turns out I know both the content and the school's rules

4:03 pm

stidmama

but one day there was a 7th grader who didn't know the proper format to write a letter... which meant that I needed to teach that as well.

4:05 pm

stidmama

I am looking forward to someday having my own classroom where I can assess student knowledge and bring them all to a common point... or at least closer to a common point.

4:05 pm

doseffing

... a letter! ... mine are certain that the only proper form of communication has at most 144 characters in it ... and usually less than that

4:38 pm

Soodle

Anybody here remember Janis Ian? She is in this country at the moment. A radio show devoted a whole hour to 'At 17' yesterday. What a wonderful song/songstress.

4:39 pm

Soodle

I always preferred 'Jesse' to At 17, but it was lovely to hear her.

4:43 pm

MollyL

I always thought that song was kind of depressing

4:47 pm

Soodle

Heart-felt, Molly, heart-felt. (as opposed to depressing)

4:48 pm

stidgmere

Just starting, I'll add a slice of angel food cake to Soodle's P.B. Tea or coffee?

4:48 pm

MollyL

I don't know. The sentiment that love is only for the pretty is kind of dark

4:51 pm

Jeff7

Great Movie Alert" I saw "The Artist" today....fantastic

4:51 pm

Soodle

Ah, Molls, I think our posts crossed. I always found At 17 too depressing. Jesse is a dirge for a lost love. And Gmere... angel food cake would just hit the spot right now. Thank you thank you thank you.

not a very easy one today

4:53 pm

stidgmere

I'm typing in a rather careless manner today. I was copying some of Mother's favorite recipes from cards to the computer. I am toying with the idea of an ancestral cook book.

4:53 pm

MollyL

Ooo, creme brulee.

4:54 pm

MollyL

I think recipes passed down from generation to generation is a beautiful thing.

4:55 pm

stidgmere

Well, as I look back on growing up, we gathered at the table each evening and my Grandmother usually joined us after she was a widow. Cooking was a nurturing action as was making clothes.

4:56 pm

YadNivek

"Who wants some creme brulee?!" Homocil ad from SNL

Hello YadNivek!How are you doing?Welcome to puzzle

YadNivek

What is it?

4:57 pm

Yeah, Min... Whats your first name?

4:57 pm

Yadnivek,see if you can guess.It would be an sa5/12.

4:58 pm

A biblical name I'm guessing :-)

4:58 pm

I'm guessing Sara.

4:58 pm

Soodle

Ah... Like my daughter....Sarah?

4:58 pm

dianedecoder

a name that I like

4:58 pm

Minveryork

Hence, the letter S on my black and white mug today.

"coder" was in the grid yesterday :-)

4:58 pm

Gran Mere, I would give anything for a book of my grandmother's recipes.

4:58 pm

stidgmere

Ah, clues everywhere. What are the questions???

4:59 pm

Minveryork

Yes, w/an H at the end of it which would make it5/12

Dorens is also in the puzzle today minus her last name

My Sarah is inclined to say... 'The S on my forehead is for Sexy, not Slave', whenever I ask her to pick up her empty cups/plates ect.... Doh!

5:00 pm

stidgmere

I have a grandson who has already asked for my cookbooks "when I no longer need them." Diplomatic isn't he?

5:02 pm

stid, your dog looks like our long gone but still very much loved friend.

5:02 pm

MollyL

I think it's good for people to know who wants what.

5:02 pm

Minveryork

That's cute Soodle! The S on my mug is not for sexy. I am definitely NOT sexy! Maybe shy, stout or stupid.

5:03 pm

MollyL

Min, you are not STUPID.

5:03 pm

stidgmere

Well, it is probably hard to ask for stuff. We lived at such a distance I never thought it was practical to ask for very much.

5:03 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations gramma on fireworks!Hooray for you

5:03 pm

stidgmere

I was thinking minver had the S for Super Babbler.

5:03 pm

YadNivek

Sophisticated? Sassy? Stingy?

If I was a Super babbler, I'd already be done w/puzzle

Molly, I made my Christmas cards this year with those cacti decorated with white lights. Seeing as we were in Az. until just before Christmas, I went for a "desert" theme. They turned out very well !

Oh Diane, I bet that photo was beautiful.

7:00 pm

dianedecoder

they are the most abundant cactus and take years to grow all their "arms"

7:00 pm

MollyL

The only reason I know that word is because I used to go with a guy who grew up in Tucson.

7:01 pm

dianedecoder

they are also protected I think as they supply so many things to other living creatures.
