7:41 am

lbdawger

Molly, my minpin was very picky about what was under his feet. he'd walk on his hind legs to get someone to pick him up if it was too cold, too wet, too hot, to dirty...picky little pooch

7:43 am

lbdawger

i mostly think he did it cause he knew i'd go rescue him. spoiled brat...sure do miss him.

7:48 am

lbdawger

7:51 am

MollyL

Ooo, I love the name Bojangles for a diner.

7:52 am

hurshy

7:53 am

hurshy

this is a funny grid for typing in things you don't think will work and then they do

7:54 am

MollyL

No kidding Hursh : )

7:54 am

hurshy

i don't know if the right kind of people are here but...

7:55 am

hurshy

name that proper noun! one of laura ingalls' aunts

7:55 am

MollyL

Docia!

7:55 am

hurshy

ding ding ding!

7:56 am

hurshy

yay for little house!

7:56 am

MollyL

That's funny I was just watching the episode of Joan Of Arcadia when God reminded Joan that she took up knitting when she was going through her "Little House" phase.

7:57 am

hurshy

ah, i haven't seen that show

7:57 am

hurshy

marty is running around the house like a madman

7:58 am

hurshy

hey if that episode was really major you could call it an epicode (soft c)

7:59 am

Kaplan the Magne

Is the x useful today or just window dressing?

7:59 am

MollyL

At the end of one word Kap

7:59 am

Kaplan the Magne

thank you. got it.

8:00 am

MollyL

Oh, and in two others

8:00 am

hurshy

now mitten is mad at marty for being so active when she was trying to nap

8:00 am

Kaplan the Magne

in, like within?

8:01 am

MollyL

Yes, not the beginning and not the end

8:01 am

Kaplan the Magne

ah.

8:03 am

hurshy

cat fight!

8:03 am

MollyL

Sorry, I can't count. In three others.

8:03 am

Kaplan the Magne

Hm.

8:07 am

gramma

I have 1 left and it involves that x.

8:07 am

hego

Hey Kap!

8:08 am

wvteach

good morning all

8:08 am

Kaplan the Magne

hey, go!

8:08 am

hego

And hi All

8:08 am

hurshy

the first ex is related to 2nd book of bible, ends in two vowels.

8:08 am

hego

How was the hand Dr?

8:10 am

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, stupid. It's aarthritis, and he prescribed a hard splint for 6 weeks. Meantime, the flareup has abated, so I am thinking- I need to in a hard splint?

8:10 am

gramma

ty hurshy. That did it for me. May I return the favor and offer a clue?

8:10 am

MollyL

Oh, I thought that was a Greek drama word

8:10 am

hego

Kap?

8:11 am

Kaplan the Magne

So I have a PT appt for my occasionally flared up shoulder, and later have an OT appt for my hand

8:11 am

hego

Well at least it abated for a while.

8:11 am

Kaplan the Magne

and will have to get a separate referral if my hip bothers me. So much for holistic care.

8:11 am

MollyL

Seems like very simplistic medicine. Of course your pain will abate if you immobilize something.

8:12 am

hego

the orhopods cut you up into little pieces

8:12 am

gramma

OK see you all tomorrow

8:12 am

hego

bye gramma

8:12 am

Kaplan the Magne

Du-h yeah. And if it doesn't, I get cortisone injection. Which I could have used in the week and a half it was really hurting.

8:13 am

MollyL

Peggy Kappi's Yoga For Arthritis is very good for stretching the joints that are affected by arthritis

8:13 am

hego

right

8:13 am

hego

that would be all of mine. lol

8:13 am

Kaplan the Magne

They do pieces. I asked the hand guy if it was a characteristic of arthritis to flare in different body parts at different times-

8:13 am

hego

good question

8:13 am

Kaplan the Magne

and he said no! How would he even know- he only does hands!

8:14 am

Kaplan the Magne

I wonder if there is a separate doctor for each toe and finger.

8:14 am

hego

again right

8:14 am

MollyL

It's on orthopedic conspiracy Kap

8:14 am

Kaplan the Magne

"Oh doctor, my middle finger is aching."

8:14 am

Kaplan the Magne

"You need to go to the middle finger specialist. Third door on the right."

8:15 am

hego

kap, bad girl

8:15 am

Kaplan the Magne

:)

8:15 am

hego

: )

8:16 am

MollyL

I swear, arthritis is just a term for joints that get over used or under used.

8:17 am

Kaplan the Magne

I am kind of looking forward to hand OT, but otherwise it looks like the best relief is anti-inflammatories and kvetching.

8:17 am

hego

kvetching always good

8:18 am

Kaplan the Magne

Of all the gin joints in the world...

8:18 am

hego

right Molly it is from over use.

8:18 am

Kaplan the Magne

Overuse> My right hand? Ya think?

8:18 am

hego

but there are pathological changes to the joints

8:19 am

hego

calcium deposits and deterioration, etc.

8:19 am

MollyL

Well yes and no. Depends on how much exercise you get.

8:20 am

Kaplan the Magne

I excercise. I draw. I use a pen. there is joint deterioration.

8:21 am

Kaplan the Magne

It runs (or walks as the case may be) in my family.

8:21 am

hego

mine also

8:21 am

m9f9l

good morning.

8:21 am

Kaplan the Magne

You asked. So I am of an age where a 30 minute discussion of my health is de rigeur.

hi dos and crossy!

11:09 am

doseffing

... it's not a hard one today ... ... I'm betting I'll have to list with fewer than 10 ... I've noticed people finishing without a list ...

11:10 am

uusue2

I essentially always have to list if I am going to finish, have been especially brain-numb lately with all the stress - but I am well past half way with only a few clues from chat...

11:12 am

doseffing

... yes ... other than the big c which I'm only starting ... there are only 5 others which I probably won't feel like using the infinite monkeys on ... so I'll list for them

11:13 am

uusue2

I am over half on all consonant tiles - words beginning with vowels always give me trouble

11:14 am

doseffing

... only the "e"s were troublesome today

11:15 am

ivesy3

speaking of e clue for ex 6/36 plz

11:15 am

doseffing

... and I got half of them without difficulty ... ... but the monkekys gave up on the last one for each e

11:15 am

doseffing

... go up

11:16 am

doseffing

... there's ex6 and 7 ... 7 ends with a four letter word ... which I believe is the third person of a vowel

11:17 am

ivesy3

ty dose

11:17 am

uusue2

got the 6/7 combo but don't have the 6/36

11:17 am

doseffing

... sorry ... I don't see how to clue it without practically spelling it ... so you get a vague one

11:17 am

doseffing

... ahh ... that's the one the monkeys gave up on

11:18 am

uusue2

is the third letter of the ex6/36 the same as the third letter of the 6/7 combo?

11:18 am

turqaz

11:19 am

uusue2

ha, got it! monkeys think it's a Greek plural. they may or may not be right.

11:19 am

doseffing

... and it's a truly monkeyable word ... sounding like something Homer Simpson would say

11:19 am

12:05 pm

12:22 pm

lbdawger

12:24 pm

12:28 pm

lbdawger

oh dear, bet he's frustrated. i wont email him then.

12:36 pm

ChampFit

Awwwwwww...has this been going on long?

12:36 pm

Judi

Howdy, all. Well, this is a bummer. I'd declare fireworks, but I really haven't "already entered" all the words. Wonky that chat is still functioning.

12:38 pm

Judi

I'm sure Dr. God will have it sorted in record time.

12:38 pm

MollyL

Wow, interesting. Everything is fine in this (previously opened) browser window. If I open another one, I get all the broken board stuff.

12:40 pm

Judi

Must be sun spots or something. Alien intervention? Anonymous hackers? Iranian cyber terror?

12:40 pm

MollyL

Waning full moon

12:41 pm

Okay. Will check back later. Patience, grasshoppers. This too shall pass. *POOF*

12:48 pm

tiger98

anyone else having issues....???

12:48 pm

doseffing

... everyone else having issues ...

12:50 pm

lbdawger

lickety is working. you can solve the puzzle there and save the words for later to enter them here.

12:50 pm

doseffing

... the good doctor warned of the reboot at 11:27 CST and it doesn't appear to have reinitialized correctly

12:51 pm

tiger98

I'd nearly finished... all my words have disappeared..

12:54 pm

lbdawger

i've got a warning :mysql_fetchasso(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/ww/html/playbabble/index.php on line 128

12:55 pm

tiger98

I have the same error message...

12:56 pm

12:58 pm

JenMO16

thanks, ibd

1:08 pm

bichon

do we just sit tight or renenter words?

1:18 pm

MollyL

Apparently re-booting the server blew the word list but not the chat box. I have to assume it's being worked on.

1:28 pm

o-o

Has anyone emailed Dr. God?

1:28 pm

doseffing

... I've just put all the words into Lickety ...... and when I type in the grid it tells me that I've already entered the word ... even words which I hadn't entered before the reboot ... ... ... thus ... something is happening here ... what it is ain't exactly clear

1:29 pm

doseffing

... but it is two hours now ...

1:31 pm

MollyL

Depending on the SQL error, they can take a while to fix.

1:31 pm

doseffing

... glad I don't hafta do it for a living any more ...

1:38 pm

cybernan

for some reason the words I've entered are not showing up in the word list or in the stats

1:38 pm

cybernan

oh -- just read the chat -- seem's I'm not the only one. See you later

1:41 pm

Dr_God

All fixed. Sorry about that, folks.

thanks, Dr_G!

1:44 pm

3:38 pm

breaking news: whitney houston has died.

7:17 pm

Trifioso

NO WAY! What happened? !

7:18 pm

cosdem

ok her publicist confirmed she is dead but her agent is now saying she is alive

7:19 pm

MollyL

All the news stories say she died.

7:20 pm

MollyL

None of the stories give cause of death. I fear it's going to be drug related.

7:20 pm

mkg

any clue for the last f word? have fl 4 and 6.

7:21 pm

Minveryork

fl 4/11:a defect of some kind and fl 6/42 is past tense

7:22 pm

Trifioso

that is really quite sad. She is only 2 years older than me....what a waste

7:22 pm

Minveryork

Here is the beginning of article from ABC News about Whitney Houston:

Whitney Houston's rep issued a shocked denial today to counter reports that the singer/actress has died

In a statement, her publicist, Nancy Seltzer, said, "I've just spoken to Whitney. She is perfectly fine and does not understand why, with everything going on in the world right now, they have to find new rumors to dig up. She is home in New Jersey with her family." Seltzer said people were calling the singer at home and sobbing, after apparently having heard reports of her death over the radio. According to the rumors, Houston had died of a drug overdose.

7:22 pm

cosdem

CNN is still sticking to the story she's dead.

7:22 pm

cosdem

CNN saying they have a very reliable source.

7:24 pm

Trifioso

AP news has published it as well

7:25 pm

Trifioso

if she is alive, her publicist is gonna have some BIG 'splaining to do!

7:26 pm

MollyL

Houston talked a lot about addiction being her demon. And although she went through rehab twice, I don't think she ever beat it.

7:27 pm

cosdem

trif -- one of her publicist says yes. one says no

7:28 pm

Minveryork

I am done! I have fireworks! co5/24 was my last word

7:29 pm

cosdem

alll the news are now confirming it. :( RIP

7:29 pm

Minveryork

I'll be here off and on to clue for the rest of the night

7:29 pm

Trifioso

how hard can this be to figure out? call her number, and if she answers, story is fixed.

7:30 pm

Trifioso

don't the publicists have each other's number?

7:30 pm

MollyL

I really, really hate addiction. It robs people of everything good about themselves and destroys the lives of the people who love them.

7:30 pm

Minveryork

LOL Trifioso!

7:31 pm

cosdem

the PR denial was from Sept. 12th

7:34 pm

MollyL

This is going to make for a dismal Grammy ceremony tomorrow.

7:35 pm

cosdem

oh my! you're right!

7:35 pm

Trifioso

oh, I hadn't thought of that!

7:36 pm

Trifioso

I feel for her daughter. she can't be very old, and it's horrible for a child to lose a parent

7:37 pm

MollyL

I believe her daughter is 17 or so.

7:38 pm

MollyL

There was some story about her being caught on tape snorting cocaine a while back.

7:39 pm

Trifioso

its quite sad. another life cut short.

7:40 pm

cosdem

al sharpton is very upset

7:41 pm

rururocks

who died?

7:41 pm

Minveryork

Whitney Houston

7:42 pm

rururocks

really? are you kidding me?

7:42 pm

MollyL

No Ru, apparently it's true.

7:42 pm

rururocks

wow.. that's awful.. she was so talented

7:43 pm

rururocks

cocaine is a horrible drud

7:43 pm

rururocks

drug

7:45 pm

cosdem

yes it is

7:51 pm

MollyL

I would imagine, even with the short amount of time, the Grammy people will put together some sort of tribute.

7:52 pm

cosdem

they would i'm sure.

7:53 pm

cosdem

or at the very least the people who put together the in memoriam montage are prob crapping their pants for havingto start from scratch.

7:54 pm

kje

hola

7:54 pm

MollyL

This is going to shake up a lot of people in the music industry. I imagine it will be a somber night.

7:57 pm

kje

ah had to go google that... wow

7:59 pm

cosdem

theres also a grammy ball tonight

7:59 pm

MollyL

She had such a powerhouse voice when she was at her peak.

8:00 pm

rururocks

hola kje

8:01 pm

lbdawger

hi everyone

8:03 pm

rururocks

hi lb

8:03 pm

cosdem

her body was discovered at the hotel where the grammy ball was to take place

8:04 pm

kje

very sad

8:06 pm

MollyL

Wow, that's pretty haunting.

8:06 pm

cosdem

cnn saying grammys may be postponed

8:07 pm

MollyL

I think that is a good idea, if it's possible.

8:08 pm

cosdem

now theyre talking abotu crack is whack... couldnt they have not done that

8:09 pm

MollyL

I agree Cos, that is in poor taste.

8:10 pm

cosdem

msnbc showed a video of her leaving a bathroom rubbing her nose and sniffing

8:10 pm

rururocks

sounds like she was a tormented person from what I read

8:11 pm

rururocks

..must have been her allergy season cos.. don't ya think?

8:11 pm

cosdem

someone just said on cnn marijuana pills killd her.. wtf

8:11 pm

cosdem

lol probably ru

8:13 pm

rururocks

I see alot of people in restaurants allergic to the bathroom

8:13 pm

rururocks

must be the soap or something

8:14 pm

cosdem

i'm so sure that's it.

8:14 pm

rururocks

that's what I thought too

8:14 pm

rururocks

lol

8:15 pm

cosdem

soap must be dusty as well for it to show up on their noses

8:15 pm

JenMO16

have you guys heard? Whitney Houston is dead

8:15 pm

cosdem

yes very sad.

8:16 pm

MollyL

Yes Jen, we've been talking about it.

8:16 pm

JenMO16

sorry

8:16 pm

MollyL

No, don't be sorry.

8:17 pm

JenMO16

ok

8:17 pm

MollyL

Cos, pills doesn't surprise me. A lot of addicts do more than one drug.

8:17 pm

cosdem

marijuana pills though?

8:18 pm

rururocks

I've never heard of marijuana pills

8:19 pm

cosdem

thats my point.

8:20 pm

MollyL

I think that person on MSNBC has their facts confused. Marijuana and pills maybe, but not marijuana pills.

8:21 pm

rururocks

I think those are the ones with the letters THC on them

8:22 pm

rururocks

I think whitney is the only person to ever sing a Dolly Parton song better than Dolly parton

8:23 pm

cosdem

cnn said it molly

8:23 pm

cosdem

blasphemy ru!

8:23 pm

suz01

it's such a shame.....she had loads of talent and wasted it!

8:23 pm

rururocks

it's true though

8:23 pm

cosdem

i wouldnt know :)

8:25 pm

rururocks

I still haven't recovered from the last music industry horror

8:27 pm

KnightTime

what's that - the superbowl hafltime show?

8:27 pm

cosdem

the reign of terror put upon us by Gaga has not yet ended

8:27 pm

SeaSpray

hah! good one knight

8:27 pm

MollyL

They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. If you look at pictures of Whitney Houston over the years, you can see in her eyes what drugs were doing to her.

8:28 pm

rururocks

no.. MIley Cyrus licking the wrong end of a phallilc birthday cake

8:28 pm

cosdem

i liked the halftime show!

8:28 pm

SeaSpray

oh...sorry cos

8:28 pm

cosdem

i noticed that molly

8:28 pm

MollyL

Ru, those were some of the grossest pictures I've ever seen.

8:28 pm

cosdem

lol its ok. :)

8:29 pm

SeaSpray

I was never a big Madonna fan

8:29 pm

rururocks

me neither.. she can't sing

8:29 pm

cosdem

not am i... i liked the visuals

8:29 pm

cosdem

ru -- she can't act either

8:30 pm

SeaSpray

I did like CeeLo though

8:30 pm

rururocks

LOL ...boy is THAT for sure

8:30 pm

rururocks

she was pretty good in desperately seeking susan though

8:30 pm

cosdem

evita was AWFUL and tis considered her masterpiece lol

8:30 pm

Uneaixoise

loved Evita . . .

8:31 pm

MollyL

Madonna has always been way too over the top for me.

8:31 pm

rururocks

<---sides with Cos.. evita was horrible

8:31 pm

SeaSpray

I guess you really don't like Gaga then

8:31 pm

Uneaixoise

loved it on Broadway and loved the movie

8:31 pm

cosdem

i dont like Gaga's style but I think she is a terrific human being

8:32 pm

MollyL

They should have left Evita on stage. Patti Lupone owns that role.

8:32 pm

rururocks

Actually I do like Lady Gaga

8:32 pm

SeaSpray

No..I meant Molly

8:32 pm

kje

evita was OK... not good acting, but she does have a great voice

8:32 pm

Uneaixoise

like Gaga too

8:32 pm

MollyL

I can't stand Gaga, even though I think she has a good voice.

8:32 pm

cosdem

Gaga is currently learning ASL so she can give a concert in full ASL

8:32 pm

cosdem

that got her my respect

8:33 pm

kje

I like some of gaga's stuff too, if in the mood, it makes for good work out music

8:34 pm

rururocks

I think Gaga's audiences are a bit whacko however

8:35 pm

MollyL

How could they not be? Gaga goes for the whacko appeal.

8:36 pm

rururocks

So did Rick Perry and look where that got him.. back to texas

8:36 pm

kje

it's a slice of life... fascinating in its own way

8:36 pm

cosdem

she's gotta be better than theb iebs

8:36 pm

SeaSpray

lol ru

8:36 pm

cosdem

biebs

8:37 pm

MollyL

My idea of the music in Hell is "Poker Face" and "Bad Romance" looped back to back, over and over again.

8:38 pm

kje

my idea of music in hell is country

8:38 pm

MollyL

As for "Born This Way" that was such a blatant rip off of Madonna, I'm surprised Gaga wasn't sued.

8:38 pm

rururocks

Mine would be getting stuck in an elevator with Celine and Kenny G music piped in

8:39 pm

cosdem

sharon osbourne is skipping the grammy parties tonight

8:39 pm

SeaSpray

Is she worried about ozzie?

8:39 pm

MollyL

Okay, I have to fold. Celine is definitely the soundtrack in Hell.

8:40 pm

SeaSpray

or out of respect?

8:40 pm

rururocks

she didn't want to leave Ozzie home with the Parakeets

8:40 pm

cosdem

lol

8:41 pm

rururocks

8:42 pm

cosdem

he bit the bat's head off.

8:42 pm

rururocks

I think the Bat Is Iowa's state bird isn't it?

8:42 pm

MollyL

It was kind of funny that Ozzy did that in straight laced Iowa.

8:43 pm

suz01

and his brain is fried from all the drugs he did

8:43 pm

cosdem

i thought it was a riot

8:43 pm

8:48 pm

MollyL

Blessings to wee 2Bit. Glad to hear she's getting better.

8:48 pm

dan2bit

8:48 pm

rururocks

lbdawger

easier raising 8 puppies?

8:51 pm

kje

ah, yes, not the best time to bring that up - lol

8:52 pm

dan2bit

8:52 pm

rururocks

8:52 pm

lbdawger

lol

8:52 pm

dan2bit

those pups just turned 3, speaking of time flying

8:52 pm

kje

wow, I had forgotten the puppy cam... I have been in babble too long

8:53 pm

MollyL

"Pulling out of Planned Parenthood"...I love it.

8:53 pm

lbdawger

does mrs 2bit hear from the owners? how are the pups doing?

8:53 pm

rururocks

:D

8:53 pm

8:54 pm

dan2bit

MollyL

That is perfect Cos. Jennifer Hudson has a very Whitney like voice.

8:54 pm

8:56 pm

lbdawger

lol

8:56 pm

kje

that last order was free, lbd... hopefully that made them be more careful

8:56 pm

lbdawger

still, it would be nice to get what you ordered.

8:56 pm

kje

it always makes me sad, as much of a foodie as you are, that you have no appreciation for fine seafood, ru

8:57 pm

rururocks

that's not seafood.. it's bait

8:57 pm

lbdawger

and ru living in California...all that wonderful seafood...drool

8:57 pm

MollyL

I have an appreciation for good seafood. I just don't like raw fish.

8:57 pm

kje

I tot agree lbd,,, I would prefer to be able to eat it - most of that went in the trash

8:57 pm

lbdawger

no, there's chum and there's sushi

8:58 pm

MollyL

It's chum Ru.

8:58 pm

rururocks

lol

8:58 pm

lbdawger

it's an acquired taste, i agree. but some fish are just too good to ruin with heat.

8:59 pm

rururocks

really.. who'd want to knock back all those parasites

8:59 pm

lbdawger

i don't like smoked fish, but a good lox...yum

9:03 pm

MollyL

Didn't we live through years of evolution that taught us to cook our meat and fish?

9:03 pm
