yep.shrug
1:03 am
rbud
I also object to folks making blanket statements that there are "rules" to adhere to here, I think that's not really so. We are all just mostly well-behaved, which is one thing I like about Babbleland, and so no actual rules are usually necessary.
1:03 am
mrpresident
perhaps the icon of the day/icon theme has special signifigance to some... ?? I know that it definitely is important to some babblers
1:03 am
babblelady2012
np here mag kinda crazy over someone getting mad over an icon
1:03 am
saphyre
agreed rbud
1:03 am

People who want to proselytize should be ignored.

1:22 am
rbud
oh, it's the whole thing with the sacred first hour, too, I was partly thinking of that when I spoke of rules - how some act as though it's set in stone. while I do think it's a nice policy, it's fallen in the ditch lately, and not much can be done to redeem it. it's a constantly changing landscape around here, rules would be futile.
1:24 am
saphyre
I've been here since close to the beginning - there are always a few ruffled feathers
1:24 am
rbud
better to reminisce about favorite policies, than to loudly insist we all stick to them.
1:24 am
mrpresident
indeed rbud. it is just another way of politely saying close chat if you don't want clues in first hour
1:24 am
mrpresident
saphy, why though? is flip becoming a flop?
1:25 am
saphyre
mrp I think some feel they are more entitled to their opinion then others unfortunately
1:25 am
saphyre
and I am not pointing fingers - it all depends on the conversation
1:26 am
rbud
I'm sure things have changed a lot since Babble began, am I right?
1:26 am
saphyre
good question LOL
1:26 am
saphyre
they have changed and yet remained the same I think
1:26 am
mrpresident
I don't put clues up at any particular time, and it has been great for some, and not great for others. so it is just about how one wants to play the game, IMHO
1:26 am
rbud
no doubt some grumbled every time something changed, folks are just that way.
1:27 am
saphyre
we have been invaded by trolls thoughout the years
1:27 am
saphyre
some argued with them, some ignored them
1:27 am
saphyre
and then the two groups argued over if the trolls should be ignored or not LOL
1:28 am
saphyre
Just human nature I guess
1:28 am
rbud
well, everyone got spoiled with the clues list popping up quickly after flip, and now we're having to go without sometimes, which I don't mind at all. More of a challenge, and the group always rallies and works together, fun to watch.
1:28 am
mrpresident
i luved it when nutty used to bait the trolls! that was funny!
1:29 am
saphyre
I agree - I use the list when i am no longer flying through
1:29 am
mrpresident
exactly rbud, and if they do that in the first hour or 4th hour or 11th hour, that is up to them
1:29 am
saphyre
lol mrp yeah it was
1:30 am
saphyre
no one forces anyone to use or not use the list or to even look at the chat
1:30 am
rbud
I thought it was a hoot when folks would post strings of "blank" chat to give trolls no time to talk, lol!
1:30 am
mrpresident
indeed saphy
1:30 am
saphyre
But that argument will always go on
1:31 am
rbud
quite the strategy.
1:31 am
saphyre
yes sometimes it was hard to tell which was the troll LOL
1:31 am
mrpresident
during our cooler months, it is more functional for me to babble at flip... so clues go up earlier then. During these summer months, I can't get on here until later, so then clues will come later
1:32 am
mrpresident
I am glad that the change up in clue list being posted is ok
1:32 am
mari
as an "old timer" I would like to thank MRP for the clues - you can dip in if you want Just close down the chat if you don't want clues what is the problem ? Finally we have had a lot more laughs than tears in the last few years so thanks for that :)
1:32 am
saphyre
and the clues are always appreciated no matter when they show up
1:32 am
rbud
I'm just grateful you took it on, mrp, thanks so much!
1:32 am
mrpresident
hi mari!! and thank you girls
1:33 am

1:35 am
saphyre
LOL maybe everyone needs to vent - have an icon day where they put up icons of things that make them angry LOL
1:36 am
rbud
or politcally incorrect day! heehee!
1:36 am
saphyre
haha yeah
1:37 am
mrpresident
yes! I would do that for sure! LOL
1:37 am
rbud
politics is not a favorite subject of mine, tis true, tired of it on FB, too much of it there. but here, so many nationalities, it's kind of pointless, in a way.
1:39 am
mrpresident
yes, it is incredibly different for every nationality as to what they are comfortable with.
1:40 am
mrpresident
as with every person too
1:40 am
saphyre
i have seen opinions here that were 120 % different than mine - but I keep quiet
1:41 am
saphyre
to me this is just not the place - but some enjoy discussing it
1:41 am
rbud
well, I know I should be interested in what goes on politically, worldwide, but I guess I'm not, really. shame on me! :\
1:41 am
saphyre
BUT if you do discuss it then you should not be upset when others give their opinion
1:42 am
saphyre
otherwise - just ignore it :)
1:42 am
saphyre
politics religion and sports - taboo for pleasant conversation LOL
1:42 am
rbud
agreed! I just stay out of it. Or start a whole different subject that runs in between, love that about babble, you can follow several lines of thought at once, lol!
1:43 am
mrpresident
yep, i follow on with particular conversations with people that i am interested in talking to as well
1:44 am
mrpresident
if some people think i ignore them, it is because i DO!
1:46 am
mrpresident
hang on... ham, mushrooms, pepperoni, olives, anchovy....
1:46 am
saphyre
in the PB?? and all i found was crumbs
1:47 am

10:43 am
Picklesny
help with the 8?
10:44 am
uusue2
ar8, past tense of ar6, let me figure out how to clue it...
10:45 am
Picklesny
i don't have ar6
10:45 am
uusue2
think "...an**** his head with oil...", replace the n with an r, and replace the i with the sometimes vowel. That gets you the 6.
10:45 am
uusue2
then past tense for the 8.
10:47 am
Picklesny
ty!!!!
10:47 am
uusue2
yw! (you see why it was tough to clue :-)
10:48 am
Picklesny
even the dictionary has trouble with it
10:49 am
MollyL
The dictionary has trouble with many Babble words
: )
10:50 am
uusue2
apparently it is used by Shakespeare in King Lear (found it in Dr. Johnson's Dictionary)
10:50 am
Eva
usually spelled with an i
10:50 am
uusue2
Saint Withold footed thrice the wold,
He met the night-mare, and her name told,
Bid her alight, and her troth plight,
And ar**** thee, witch, ar**** thee right.
10:52 am
sallyds
Thanks uusue. I would never have gotten those without your clue.
10:52 am
Picklesny
i hate it when my troth plight
10:52 am
uusue2
Well, I got it from a clue earlier - not a word that I use very often (although I do recognize it as having been in the grid before)
10:53 am
sallyds
Some of Will's vocabulary just never caught on. ;)
10:53 am
uusue2
meaning similar to "begone!"
10:54 am
MollyL
Pickles, I have trouble with my troth plighting too. : P
10:55 am
Picklesny
evidently there's something in traditional wedding vows about plightling her troth my mom used to always make fun of
10:56 am
MollyL
If we were all fluent in Shakespeare, foreign currency and obscure medical and scientific terms, we would be Babble geniuses!
10:57 am
Picklesny
if only...
10:57 am
uusue2
well, I've obviously had my own troubles with troth plighting, having been married and divorced three times...oh well :-)
10:57 am
uusue2
"ar****!" was what I said to all three of them after a while :-)
10:59 am

11:14 am
pam
The quintet is gorgeous, Sue! Are you retiring? And, remind me, what do you teach?
11:14 am
Scrabbler
Yes. We're in the 1950's now. Moving along slowly.
11:14 am
uusue2
I am retiring at the end of June, pam, and I teach physics.
11:14 am
pam
Congratulations, I think. Cool.
11:14 am
Scrabbler
Any plans for retirement, besides relaxation?
11:15 am
uusue2
relaxation comes first, then maybe some travel
11:15 am
uusue2
I do have a lot of reading to catch up on...
11:15 am
Scrabbler
Good for you. You deserve it.
11:15 am
uusue2

11:16 am
Scrabbler
Work gets in the way of life.
11:17 am
uusue2

11:20 am
Scrabbler

11:20 am
Minveryork
Go uusue2 go!
11:20 am
MollyL
Sounds like you have lots of fun plans for retirement, Sue. Enjoy! The University will be minus one very devoted professor.
11:20 am
uusue2
and three of them are 4-letter words (the other one is a 5), so how hard could that be?
11:21 am
uusue2
I could come back and teach if I wanted (and if they want me to); I might do that from time to time if there's a fun course to do
11:22 am
Scrabbler
How is your Physics of Sports course going?

11:24 am
uusue2
I had them turn in their proposals for their semester projects; the honors program has an enrichment budget so I am buying each one of them a book about their chosen sport (or a book about the physics of lots of different sports, if there wasn't a single book)

Now I'm enra4/5ured by the game & other babblers. It was a good thing this game wasn't around when I was a te4/4ager. I never would have done my homework. Husband would like to ra4/9 the website from my favorites, but I will not let him. I tell him if he tries playing babble just for a te5/14 bit he'll love it. But hubby te 4/5s to like non-word games better.Hubby ne4/5s the computer.If I do not give it to him, we will get into a ti 4/10. I have to 5/16 with idea of getting another computer, but can’t afford it now.I didn't edit this story so there might be some ty 4/7s. I'm going to run to the store to rent Sex in the Ci4/7. I will be back in fi5/26 minutes to chat & clue.

12:17 pm
Minveryork
There is a new grid every 24 hours. Grid changes for me at 1:00 in the morning. Babble time is CST I think though

12:18 pm
redturtlehead
I am struggling with finding my last 14....
12:19 pm
MollyL
Hi Red. I have some left to find too. But I'm only in here on and off during the day. Good luck to you.
12:20 pm
redturtlehead
well, I have not finished in a long time, so I might not.
12:21 pm
yarn lady
wanted to thank everyone for clues,between those and lickety I finally managed to finish one! This can be addicting, should upgrade to pro but then I'd be spending more time here...but I like such a friendly place
12:21 pm
Minveryork
I have posted story of clues in my profile redturtlehead.
12:21 pm
redturtlehead
heading there Minver...
12:22 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations yarn lady on finishing grid. Good for you
12:22 pm
redturtlehead
ahh first word was one I was missing!!!
12:22 pm
redturtlehead
and Congratulations Yarn! I admit, I hesistated a long itme before going pro, but gosh that was like 14.00 several years ago now, so I am sure I have gotten 14.00 of enjoyment by now.
12:23 pm
yarn lady
Minveryork -you do such fun stories and everyone is so quick with clues, I'll have to do a lot more reading
12:25 pm
yarn lady
It's nice to see so many of the same people still chatting away, I must have been away from here at least 6 months, thanks Red
12:26 pm
redturtlehead
I tend to come and go. I was gone for 3-4 months, but now am back...
12:27 pm
redturtlehead

Goodbye yarn lady! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log.

12:44 pm
Jacula
Hello everyone. I just remembered that I still have 5 words to find. This may be a small grid but it's a tough little b*gger! :-)
12:45 pm
Minveryork
Hello Jacula! I am saving my last word for later on today.
12:45 pm
Jacula
Hi Min. I used to do that... until the day my Beloved put it in for me. I felt like someone had torn the last page out of my book! :-(
12:46 pm
Minveryork
LOL Jacula!Well I don't have to worry about that. Hubby won't go near babble with a 10 foot pole! Wish he would.
12:48 pm
Jacula
My chap's dyslexic and doesn't play. His 'condition' is often a help when spelling some of the weirder words that get chucked into the mix.
12:50 pm
redturtlehead
clue for the to 5,22?
12:51 pm
LeslieAnn
a gem, red
12:51 pm
Minveryork
A to 5/22 is a white colored mineral used to make rings.
12:52 pm
redturtlehead
ahhh thanks!
12:53 pm
redturtlehead
ad that is fireworks!
12:53 pm
LeslieAnn

12:53 pm
Jacula
One word left to find - an 'a5'. Hmmm...
12:53 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations redturtlehead on fireworks! Good for U!
12:53 pm
LeslieAnn

12:53 pm
Jacula
Well done, red!

Jacula
'Bye Min.
12:54 pm
redturtlehead

12:56 pm
Jacula
Got it! Thanks Min. FIREWORKS! :-)
12:56 pm
LeslieAnn

12:59 pm
crosshair
and now i must head out my friends,but before i go,i shall leave you with crossy,s tidbit of the day!!!!
1:00 pm
crosshair
Mapmakers will often insert a tiny piece of incorrect information in their maps to prevent the illegal reproduction of their work. Called a "copyright trap," the fake text might be a bogus street name or even the mapmakers' initials hidden in the corner of a city park.
1:00 pm
crosshair
tc all and happy babbling..poink!
1:00 pm
LeslieAnn
interesting crossy, have a good day
1:03 pm
bogster

2:15 pm
Minveryork
Hi 72 Temple Owl!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
2:17 pm
72 Temple Owl
i am fine min and you?
2:18 pm
Minveryork
I am doing ok. I'm saving my last word for later on today.
2:18 pm
72 Temple Owl
hi molly
2:19 pm
Minveryork
Does anybody here know about doing system restore on a computer? Crosshair was here earlier, but has exited.
2:19 pm
72 Temple Owl
no,sorry
2:20 pm
Minveryork
I will wait to ask again when crosshair comes back here.
2:21 pm
MollyL
Min, click OPEN, ALL PROGRAMS, ACCESSORIES, SYSTEM TOOLS and then SYSTEM RESTORE.
2:22 pm
MollyL
Then let it guide you through the SYSTEM RESTORE and choose a previous date to restore your system to. Hope that helped.
2:23 pm
Minveryork
I did that MollyL and it will not let me restore the system
2:23 pm
72 Temple Owl
i can see these last 7 are going to be like pulling teeth.
2:24 pm
Minveryork
Once I picked start point I clicked on "next" and nothing happened. I believe my virus is stopping it from working.
2:24 pm
MollyL
Min, have you defragmented your computer and cleaned out all the cookies and book marks? Usually if it will not let you "system restore" it means you have some problem with your computer.
2:24 pm
Minveryork
Go 72 Temple Owl go!
2:25 pm
Minveryork
Hello welki! How are you doing today? Welcome to puzzle
2:25 pm
72 Temple Owl
hello welk
2:25 pm
welki
yours is a fairly new computer, min -- right?
2:26 pm
Minveryork
I know I have problem with my computer. That is why I wanted to do system restore. I thought it might get rid of the virus, but virus seems to have effected the system restore option also. I guess I gotta bring it in
2:27 pm
welki
if you've got your files backed up, min, why not try a full restore back to factory defaults?
2:28 pm
welki
(instead of up to a certain point in time)
2:28 pm
Minveryork
I think it is 2 or 3 years old.But it is a work computer and connected to the system at work. Use it at home though so it isn't connected to the system at work so antivirus software does not work as well at my housel
2:29 pm
Arual
Hi, I'm an irregular here. Got only 46 words tonite, how many more do I need for fws please?
2:29 pm
welki
you've got them all, arual *fireworks*
2:29 pm
Minveryork
Laptop wouldn't let me restore past a certain time welki.
2:30 pm
Minveryork
Hello Arual! How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log.
2:30 pm
Arual
thanks welki, does anything happen, never got them all before
2:30 pm
Minveryork
There are only 46 words in the grid today. It's very small
2:30 pm
welki
*looks at molly, looks at min* methinks you're hooped, kid - time for a service call (unless crossy has a trick or two up his sleeve)
2:30 pm
welki
arual, if you're a paid member ($15, i think), you get an animated icon of fireworks - if you want a celebratory cocktail, you have to bring your own :)
2:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
methinks i had one too many celebratory cocktailsl last night. i have no ambition today
2:31 pm
welki
what were you drinking, owl?
2:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
gin and tonic
2:32 pm
Minveryork
Yeah,that is what I figured.Fortunately I can bring it to work and they will fix it at no cost. Unfortunately, that means I have no computer to babble on at home.
2:32 pm
Arual
thanks got a glass or red stuff with me right now. Methinks that might have helped get to 46
2:32 pm
Minveryork
Thank you MollyL and welki for your advice and your help
2:32 pm
welki
*toasts Arual on first fireworks*
2:32 pm
welki
sorry i couldn't offer any help, min
2:33 pm
72 Temple Owl

2:33 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations Arual on finishing the grid. Good for you
2:33 pm
Arual
welkie, actually second. First was about 2 years ago, sorry not a regular.
2:33 pm
welki
and owl, what were you celebrating?
2:33 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations 72 Temple Owl on fireworks! Way to go!
2:34 pm
welki
no apology necessary - some play when they get the itch, some itch to play :-)
2:34 pm
MollyL
Sorry I couldn't help Min. Hope you can get your computer fixed.
2:34 pm
Minveryork
Bye 72 Temple Owl! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log.
2:34 pm
Minveryork
Thanks MollyL
2:34 pm
Arual
Thank you Minveryork, here's good health to all
2:35 pm
Minveryork
Of course my husband thinks I got the virus from Babble.
2:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
welkii went to a zydeco for mardi gras
2:36 pm
welki
ohhh nice, owl!! between dancing to the zydeco and gin, no wonder no ambition today!!
2:36 pm
Minveryork
Didn't have any drinks and I still have no ambition today.
2:36 pm
72 Temple Owl
omg it was a blast, a great band
2:37 pm
72 Temple Owl

2:37 pm

2:39 pm
jmitch
LOL! now I have to battle my inner devil telling me to peek!
2:39 pm
Minveryork
In that case, guess my story of clues is not ne4/5ed now
2:39 pm
mixi6
thanks for my last two TO. :) fireweeds
2:39 pm
Minveryork
Congratulations mixi6 on your fireworks!Hooray for you!
2:39 pm
welki
nobody forces you to read chat - if someone sees the list, they can scroll, scroll away
2:40 pm
jmitch
TO: we are missing the same last A word!
2:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
oh no, min, your sotries arelovely. i am so embarrassed
2:40 pm
Minveryork
Hello jmitch! How are you doing today? Welcome to grid.
2:40 pm
welki
name of the band
2:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
i was trying to get this to weilk http://www.allonsdanser.org/
2:41 pm
welki
lots of bands at that site - did they all play last night?
2:41 pm
72 Temple Owl
curley taylor.but you can play with thejukebox
2:41 pm
Minveryork
LOLl! Your list will help someone else who has no ambition today too. Unfortunately I am already almost done here.
2:42 pm
welki
thanks!! i'll love it
2:42 pm
welki
traditional zydeco?
2:42 pm
jmitch
I'm doing well....I peeked at the "clues" TO and I are missing the same words
2:42 pm
welki
hi, mitch :)
2:43 pm
jmitch
and good day to you WELK and MIN
2:43 pm
welki
mitch, do you live near the coast?
2:43 pm
72 Temple Owl
he was but he mixes in a little funka nd even played a soil =line dance tune! it was funny, only about half the folks got it , the other half just left the floor and stared
2:44 pm
72 Temple Owl
and the washboard player and another came down to the floor and danced with us
2:44 pm
welki
if you were an american living in canada who was looking for a retirement location near fishing (freshwater, mainly) but loved the coast, where in mississippi would you guide this old broad?
2:44 pm
jmitch
WELK: yes, I do.
2:45 pm
welki
looking more for a small piece of property or a teeny weeny cottage
2:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
welki are you coming back?
2:45 pm
welki
i hope to someday
2:45 pm
jmitch
The entire Gulf Coast is good for fishing of all types. But of course we have the hurricane threat to worry about. You can get land pretty reasonable if you move inland
2:46 pm
welki
i'm from the east coast originally - hurricanes are part of my early life
2:46 pm
72 Temple Owl
why not the chesapeake?
2:46 pm
welki
lol - mitch - the miss. coast is loooong - no special place or area that you'd recommend?
2:46 pm
jmitch
but insurance companies are making buying/building difficult if you are "too close" to the gulf
2:47 pm
welki
virginia'd be nice, but very very expensive .. and the fishing is better in mississippi
2:47 pm
jmitch
LONG? It's only 60 some miles from Alabama to Louisiana. My personal favorite town down here is Pass Christian.
2:47 pm
welki
although the chesapeake - crabs crabs crabs
2:49 pm
welki
gotta love it - the map i'm looking at makes the distance seem much longer. now that's a good quality - flawed depth perception :)
2:49 pm
jmitch
or Bay St. Louis.
2:50 pm
jmitch
but both towns have had repeated hits from massive storms (Camille and Katrina)
2:50 pm
72 Temple Owl
ok i have done enough damage for today. sorry all. welki, listen to "Free your mind"on the jukebox, it is more representative of the band.bye all
2:51 pm
welki
will take a look at those towns, mitch (thanks) and you take care, owl
2:53 pm
welki
( will also look at pascagoula, if only to see what jimmy buffet was talking about)
2:53 pm
jmitch
Miss Gulf Coast is good because we have within a 100 mile radius: New Orleans for fun, Pensacola for aviation buffs, Mobile for battleship lovers.....seafood, cajun food, fishing and hunting
2:54 pm
jmitch
heh...I work in Pascagoula....not much to look at...small town USA
2:55 pm
welki
*packing up* husband is military/naval/aviation fan - me, i love the food and music - we both fish
2:55 pm
jmitch
On this end of the coast I would recommend Ocean Springs.....nice little bedroom community outside Biloxi (that's pronounced Bil-uh-x-ee!)
2:55 pm
jmitch
not Bil-ah-x-ee....
2:56 pm
welki
<-- old air force gal .. lots of pals down in biloxi
2:57 pm
jmitch
i retired down here from USN.
2:57 pm
welki
but - if we were to want a place out of town (i guess more inland then) where we could have lots of privacy ... where would we start to look?
2:58 pm
welki
maybe on a bass lake *dreaming*
2:58 pm
welki
hahaha .. probably all lakes down there are bass lakes
2:58 pm
mcurlschool
several years ago my son was stationed at hurlburt....man I miss going down there!
2:58 pm
welki
hey mcurl - nice to 'see' you!
2:58 pm
jmitch
almost all the inland "towns" are too small to show up on a map. Hattiesburg is a college town near an army base with lakes in the area.
2:59 pm
jmitch
mcurl; Hurlburt is right around the corner (sort of)
3:00 pm
mcurlschool
I've been lurking and watching the nationwide race....what a finish
3:03 pm
welki
what are you watching? i thought daytona's tomorrow
3:03 pm
holly16
clue for oy 4/11?
3:03 pm
jmitch
shhhh....don't tell me! I'm at work and gonna watch it tonite
3:04 pm
jmitch
welki: today's race was the Nationwide race at Daytona...tomorrow is the SPRINT Daytona 500
3:04 pm
mcurlschool
won't tell you who won but just know that the announcers jinxed a bunch of drivers toward the end of the race and some drivers got screwed over
3:04 pm
jmitch
green, white, checker finish?
3:05 pm
mcurlschool
no but under caution
3:07 pm
welki
*looking at real estate listings* nice houses in pass christian
3:11 pm
welki
some of the listings in bay st. louis are sad
3:12 pm
jmitch
really? I haven't been to BSL since Katrina.
3:13 pm
welki
one i looked at said that the value is in the land, that the property hadn't been cleaned since Katrina and that the heirs are anxious to sell
3:13 pm
welki
another has a photo of the pilings you'd start to build on
3:14 pm
welki
back to pass christian :)
3:14 pm
jmitch
that story is played over and over down here. insurance issues drove many people off of family lands. just to expensive to rebuild to new standards
3:20 pm
welki
if we're able to, maybe the best thing to do will be to take some time and just travel - i think we'll know when we find where we want to land. we can live just about anywhere, just so much to choose from, even with financial constraints
3:21 pm
welki
would like to be the cliche - snow bird
3:21 pm
jmitch
winter down here and summer up north!
3:21 pm
welki
yeppers - now wouldn't that be the cat's ass?
3:22 pm
jmitch
casino rooms are actually pretty reasonable during the weekdays. hit the jackpot and buy whatever you want!
3:23 pm
welki
sure - and maybe i'll have the winning lottery ticket this week *lol*
3:23 pm
welki
anyway, nice talking with you - much thanks for the information. later, mitch
3:25 pm
jmitch
have a great one.

jmcnrick

Brother Wind is very busy today. He's blowing just as hard on this side of the planet.
3:46 pm
jmcnrick
whoo hoo maggie!!!!!
3:46 pm
jmcnrick
love the icon molls
3:47 pm
jmcnrick
*throws silver and gold confetti at maggie*
3:48 pm
jmcnrick
whoo hooo i greyed the bottom two rows!
3:49 pm
jmcnrick
hi ya nrkii! *waves madly*
3:50 pm
uusue2
hi all! back from (long) memorial service, off shortly to shop for groceries - life goes on-
3:50 pm
uusue2
hi, jmc and nrkii!
3:50 pm
jmcnrick
hope it was moving as well as long
3:50 pm
nrkii
jmc, good to see you!
3:50 pm
jmcnrick
where you been nrkii
3:51 pm
nrkii
too busy to babble, I guess
3:51 pm
uusue2
it was, very much so, jmc - a woman who lived a full life and was very much loved
3:51 pm
nrkii
but came back a few days ago because I missed my old friends
3:51 pm
nrkii
oh uu, that is nice to hear
3:52 pm
nrkii
I'm taking it easy today, so I came in to tackle a nice big grid... LOL
3:52 pm
jmcnrick
oops you missed the week of 350+ ones
3:53 pm
uusue2
small and not too awful, this one is (although I had a lot of help from the chat)
3:53 pm
jmcnrick
see this is what argues for being able to go back a couple of days
3:53 pm
nrkii
I hear TO was very generous earlier
3:53 pm
nrkii
I finished the grid pretty fast today, so I didn't get to chat. Decided to stick around for a few to say HI.
3:54 pm
MollyL
Thanks JMC. Glad you like the icon. I had the misfortune of being up around flip time and read some chat that disturbed me. Babble friends should be able to say that political icons are not cool. And no one should make comments about how the intentionally ignore people. Do that if you need to, but don't make comments about it. Just my two cents.
3:54 pm
jmcnrick
i am still bumbbling through
3:55 pm
jmcnrick
well i live through the patriotic ones so people should live through my peace ones--never got a complaint tho
3:55 pm
jmcnrick
or do they mean particular candidates? *shudder* is no place safe?
3:55 pm
nrkii
I don't know, Molly. I try very hard to not get into politics or religion here. My views are my views, and I don't want to throw down with people over them in a friendly place. :)
3:56 pm
nrkii
As soon as the conversation gets too political, that's my cue to take a break.
3:56 pm
pam
I don't mind the icons. But I don't want to have the chats. Oh, and hi!
3:56 pm

i try to keep most of my politics to myself but everyone knows what i believe in
3:56 pm
nrkii
The most I might do is quietly suggest that not everyone has the same views.
3:56 pm
nrkii
Pam, I agree.
3:57 pm
jmcnrick
so i feel no reason to make a big point about it in the chat
3:57 pm
uusue2
I like your icon too, molly - every once in a while we get a clunker here, but the vast majority of the babblers are so nice! It is quite a community - just because we have a village idiot or two doesn't detract from that
3:57 pm
nrkii
jmc, you are quietly devout :)
3:58 pm
pam
Well said, nrkii!
3:58 pm
MollyL
It was an anti-Obama icon and someone politely suggested that it was inappropriate. I agree. Then the conversation turned to who chats with who and who ignores who and it seemed very unfriendly. No more looking at chat at flip time for me.
3:58 pm
jmcnrick
stats for the Y or am i being dumb?
3:58 pm
uusue2
and I mostly keep my politics to myself too, I think, although I do speak up for science now and then (which ought to be nonpolitical anyway)
3:58 pm
nrkii
the main rule I think people should follow here is just not to criticize each other... there's no reason for it -- we've had too many injured souls here
3:58 pm
pam
jmc--stats or clue?
3:58 pm
jmcnrick
well there are people who don't talk much to me and it makes no matter to me
3:59 pm
jmcnrick
just the stats ty both
3:59 pm
MollyL
"Too many injured souls here"...well put Nrkii
3:59 pm
uusue2
indeed, nrkii - every once in a while someone shares their story - people here have gone through a lot of pain but it usually doesn't show - even when you meet someone in person you don't know what they are going through
3:59 pm
nrkii
I wonder why anyone would openly object to content in someone's icon though, even if they disagreed with it. Why bother?
3:59 pm
uusue2
<--- is a fan of cutting everyone some slack
4:00 pm
jmcnrick
too true so i try to great everyone and say please and thank you to everyone who tries to help me
4:00 pm
pam
I am with you on the icon, nrkii. No reason to snipe.
4:00 pm
jmcnrick
mostly if you don't like an icon don't click on it
4:00 pm
nrkii
The flip side of your icon, Molly, is to try not to BE the bad apple. LOL. Heaven knows I try! (not always successful)
4:00 pm
uusue2
there is one person whose icon I find offensive but I don't say anything; I just don't chat with them (they're not in the chat much when I'm on anyway)
4:01 pm
MollyL
I think icons need to be appropriate. On most chat forums they are moderated. They are not here. Hence the comments.
4:01 pm
nrkii
uu, I hope it's not mine! Do you hate Nellie Oleson? You can admit it if you do... I won't hold it against you... :)
4:01 pm
holly16
anyone have a clue for the oy 4/11?
4:01 pm
jmcnrick
i think i sometimes hurt molls feelings when i am trying to tease her. . . .
4:01 pm
MollyL
<---Loves Nellie : )
4:01 pm
nrkii
Eh, Molly, but then it's just inviting a fight. Why bother? To each his/her own.
4:02 pm
jmcnrick
think court language holly
4:02 pm
nrkii
Another Nellie lover found!!
4:02 pm
jmcnrick
i never watched the show
4:03 pm
nrkii
I might comment if I saw someone's icon was not PG-rated, because we have kids on here sometimes. Otherwise, I don't care.
4:03 pm
MollyL
JMC, just for the record, I have been going through some tough stuff lately. If I have begged off seeming too sensitive, that is why. I don't whine and kvetch about my personal life here.
4:03 pm
uusue2
lol, nrkii, I am so out of it I don't even recognize yours! and it doesn't matter which one it is; I won't be addressing it directly as I don't think I could do so in a civil manner. So I choose not to say anything.
4:03 pm
jmcnrick
read the books when i was a young whipper snapper
4:03 pm

nrkii
The gasp was for JMC never watching LHOP
4:03 pm
uusue2
((((molly)))) sorry you are having a hard time!!
4:03 pm
pam
I would leave if icons were moderated. They are personal expressions and as long as the thumbnail is g-rated, well, that's all that matters in my mind...
4:04 pm
jmcnrick
well i am sorry if you are hurting and please know that whatever i type it is never meant to be mean
4:04 pm
pam
nrkii--i didn't see your pg-rated comment. Once again, great minds, LOL
4:04 pm
jmcnrick
haha holly i am glad someone besides me did that!
4:05 pm
nrkii
Sorry to hear that Molly. I hope things get better soon.
4:05 pm
holly16
makes you fee liike a total ass................
4:05 pm
jmcnrick
oops sorry that was yw holly
4:05 pm
uusue2
I would not advocate for moderation of icons either; if I have a problem with someone's icon that is my problem, not theirs.
4:05 pm
nrkii
(imagine if I had to give up my Nellie icon... sad Nrk)
4:05 pm
jmcnrick
anytime you ne** to escape come stay with me and we will drink guiness together molls
4:06 pm

hi holly, looks like your cat got hold of the keyboard :-)
4:06 pm

i know holly i was having a terrible time with my enter key for a while!
4:06 pm
Soodle
<------ And right on cue, here is the Guinness truck!!
4:06 pm

wish I could bame the cat :)
4:07 pm
uusue2
yay soodle and guinness!!
4:07 pm
jmcnrick
what does the 7 start with?
4:07 pm
jmcnrick
haha bring it on soodle!
4:07 pm
Soodle
(Speaking of inappropriate icons..)
4:07 pm
Soodle
The 7 is a PO Jmc.
4:07 pm
MollyL
Okay folks, no moderation of icons? Really? Even if they are sexually suggestive or offensive in political or religious ways?
4:07 pm
nrkii
Oh Soodle, you are my hero. Any Smithwicks in that truck, by any chance?
4:07 pm
jmcnrick
is that an answer to my request are you all making editorial comments? ;-)
4:08 pm
Soodle
BTW, Hello everybody
4:08 pm
nrkii
Molly, as long as they are PG, I'm fine with them.
4:08 pm
nrkii
Offensive is in the eye of the beholder.
4:08 pm
jmcnrick
i am okay with no moderation
4:08 pm
holly16
hi Soodle
4:08 pm
MollyL
Icons being PG means someone has to moderate them.
4:09 pm
nrkii
that is where I would speak up, if someone had something not PG
4:09 pm
nrkii
otherwise, I just let it go
4:09 pm
jmcnrick
or we can all behave like grownups
4:09 pm
uusue2
I think that if someone were to put up a patently offensive icon, we could ask Dr_God to remove it - that's not the same as automatic moderation, though (which would mean they would have to be approved in advance - a huge task!)
4:09 pm
jmcnrick
i want pontificate to be in the grid
4:10 pm
jmcnrick
i think uu has the right idea
4:10 pm
nrkii
jmc, did you get the 7?
4:10 pm
nrkii
can I "like" uu's comment?
4:10 pm
jmcnrick
not yet nrkii still monkeying
4:10 pm
uusue2
ooh, jmc, you are almost in the PB!!!!
4:10 pm
pam
i do, nrkii... like, like, like
4:10 pm
MollyL
I'm spinning my wheels here. I'm pretty sure if someone put up an icon that said "I HATE ____" (insert racial slur of your choice) people would find it offensive.
4:10 pm
nrkii
you are so close, jmc
4:10 pm
babblelady2012
who is hego i want to thank them so much? an hi everyone
4:10 pm
nrkii
yes, Molly, that is true
4:10 pm
babblelady2012
someone in babble
4:11 pm
jmcnrick
hi babble
4:11 pm
nrkii
but that is where the grey area heads more towards the edges
4:11 pm
nrkii
hi babblelady!
4:11 pm
uusue2
exactly, molly, and I am pretty sure (from some second-hand correspondence) that Dr_God would remove such an icon if asked
4:11 pm
jmcnrick
are you part of fb babble?
4:11 pm
babblelady2012
yes
4:11 pm
jmcnrick
are you part of the babble fb page?
4:12 pm
babblelady2012
ithink so
4:12 pm
jmcnrick
i have always found dr god very reasonable
4:12 pm
uusue2
anyway the vast, vast majority of us do act like sensible adults, at least around here (well, except occasionally when we get a bit silly), and seem to be able to deal with each other as such. Which is quite refreshing.
4:12 pm
pam
I think if a racial slur appeared, we'd all clamor at once, ask if the person were a troll, and write dr god. Slurs of any kind are not even remotely tolerated.
4:12 pm
MollyL
Again, this is all just me. I understood why someone found the anti-Obama icon inappropriate. And I am not an Obama fan. There are things that just don't belong here. And comments in chat about ignoring people that don't belong either. It makes it a much less friendly place.
4:12 pm
jmcnrick
when i was worried that my stalker had followed me to babbleland he checked and assured me he had not
4:13 pm
babblelady2012
according to this person i'm gonna check it out i now have a account to do hego sent it to me

ah, that is good, jmc!

Oh, JMC, I love your 'broke period' comment. It gives me hope.... My 'broke period' is getting a bit tedious now... Looking forward to the end of it :-)
4:16 pm
jmcnrick
how would that offend anyone babble? click on my account and see if you can upload an icon
4:16 pm
nrkii
Soodle, I think Smithwick's is made by same guys as Guinness, so maybe there's a six-pack in that truck. :)

4:17 pm

4:17 pm

in that case molls *thinks happy thoughts with lots of money and a great job*
4:17 pm
babblelady2012
getting me acct
4:17 pm
MollyL
Holly, add another vowel (same one) to the ra4 before it and then make it past tense.
4:17 pm
FranMag
ra5/20 sounds like a nickname for someone named after a small pink berry. :-)
4:18 pm
babblelady2012
gone to check out see if its true
4:18 pm
jmcnrick
no not at all it is a fairly common occurrence and part of the friendliness of the place
4:18 pm
FranMag
thanks for the past tense ra6, Molly! didn't think about doing that.
4:19 pm

Who would Fran? It's a totally whacked out word.

what etta died? i didn't see that and she was soooo much more important

Etta James? it was big news in wedding circles...At Last is still a very popular wedding song.

Etta James died a couple of weeks ago at age 73.
4:37 pm

Etta died on January 20th

Same thing happened to Farrah Fawcett. People seemed to care more about Michael Jackson than Ms. Fawcett.

Etta had her drama earlier. I know you were singing At Last...I had her on my ipod on the bus home from NY

imho michael jackson was a sad character with not as much talent as everyone made out
4:39 pm
Kaplan the Magne
He was a good dancer.
4:39 pm
jmcnrick
haha it took me a minute to figure out why you were cheering me
4:40 pm

he was sad, but I do think he was very talented
4:40 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My 16 year old tried to move the car in our obnoxious driveway and tore off the bumper.
4:40 pm
Minveryork
Yes, he did. Jackson died over drugs whereas Farrah died after fighting a long battle with Cancer.I believe anyone who dies over drug overdose doesn't deserve so much attention. They don't learn from other cases
4:41 pm
Kaplan the Magne
There's never a dull moment.
4:41 pm

ooops -- who needs a bumper anyway
4:41 pm

Poor Farrah died a hideous death. RIP

oh dang, kap... my brother did that once, hit the house

Addiction is VERY complicated --and child stardom creates some horrible personality distortions and disorders

6:48 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
DOS
6:48 pm
mrpresident
so I told them to make one up!! hopefully if they use it enough, it will stick and other people will use it too.
6:49 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
there's no word from front window wiper either, unless you just say wiper and assume the worst
6:49 pm
Minveryork
I call that the rearview windshield wiper mrpresident.
6:49 pm
mrpresident

mrpresident

6:50 pm
FranMag

6:50 pm

I guess since the front ones are front windshield wipers, then the back ones would be the rear windshield wiper.
6:50 pm
Minveryork
Go Book Doctor Gwen go!
6:50 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
now in america we have shortened a lot of british-english words, but they call it a cubby and we call it a glove compartment. how silly is that?
6:51 pm
mrpresident
indeed, but they wanted to know why there isn't ONE WORD for it
6:51 pm
Soodle
Sheesh, Mr P, I could write a book about questions my kids asked me, to which there are no answers.... Why is the sky blue.... where do dead people go, and the classic... If God can do anything, can he make a rock that he can't lift?
6:51 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
soodle, they have figured out why the sky is blue . . . ;)
6:51 pm
FranMag
and who puts gloves in there anyway?
6:52 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
No ONE
6:52 pm
Minveryork
Good point Book Doctor Gwen! Not many people gloves in there. It should be called car documents compartment.

Minveryork
An at5/16 is almost like the at 5/14 word babblelady2012
10:36 pm
Minveryork
de 4/5 is anagram of ne4/5. Next de4/5 is a nick in your car. de 4/7 word is to refuse to admit any wrong doing.
10:37 pm
Minveryork
The ne 4/4 word describes the bright lights in Las Vegas

Minveryork
The first at 5/14 word is a plus **** Danza or **** Soprano
10:38 pm
torgone
The at5's vary by one letter
10:39 pm
Minveryork
An at 5/16 word is at 4/5 word plus the sometimes vowel
10:39 pm
Minveryork

10:53 pm
babblelady2012

Minveryork
I used to do the themes all the time. Now only some of the times.When I saw many didn't do it,I lost interest
10:55 pm
