12:30 am
westford
the hide and seek question
12:30 am
saanichcat
ru, if you leave off the last letter of your stepped-on horn you have another word

12:33 am
westford
lol ruru..thought it might have something to do with buffalo wieners
12:34 am
rururocks
too funny westie.. I think oscar was into weiners
12:34 am
westford
would a pillow help jilli..either on the foot stool or behind your back?
12:35 am
anike
50 to go but struggling
12:35 am
westford
yes he was ru but what a writer
12:35 am
jillibus
Oh, Oscar Meyer, the US wiener guy (among others)
12:35 am
westford

12:36 am
jillibus
I have a pillow on the footstool, west -- maybe one for the back -- but I'm quitting soon anyway
12:37 am
westford
hope that problem goes away soon jilli
12:37 am
anike
The weekend in Phillip Island was mixed - Adam aimed for top 10 and finished 8th with his fastest time around track. However, there was a tragedy in the first of his starts which really puts a down on the whole event
12:37 am
scouser
today's m5/12 about Enable: we can have Latin names of plants but not animals - Esox is a perfectly good pike.
12:38 am
westford
oh anike that's too bad..but good about Adam
12:38 am
jillibus
it will, anike (at least I'll stop whining about it)
12:39 am
anike
Yes - it is a hard sport and these things do happen but it is never easy
12:39 am
westford
I'll remember that scouser..sounds much better than plain old pike
12:39 am
jillibus
has anyone got the stats for the C?
12:40 am
westford
it's Welsh-y
12:40 am
westford
I think
12:40 am
rbud
I have cy4 and cy5, can't find the last
12:40 am
anike
Hubby & I followed up with a wedding in Bali which was a very relaxed few days - once we got there
12:40 am
rastapopolous
cy4,5,6. not welsh, botany
12:40 am
jillibus
Anike -- what is the sport and what was it that happened which was so trgic?
12:40 am
westford
anike was the rider inexperienced? or was it a mechanical failure?
12:41 am
westford
thanks rasta..I tried the cw at first so Welsh stuck in my head
12:42 am
rbud
ah, the cy 6, ty!
12:42 am
jillibus
ty for the cy words -- I got the 4 at least
12:44 am
anike
My son does motorcycle road racing - a young rider who was too inexperienced (in many opinions) to be in that particular event, seemed to "freeze" at the first (very fast) corner, left the track and crossed the infield and ploughed back into the pack at high speed, Many riders came down (Adam managed to clear them) and the young boy (17) was killed.
12:44 am
rbud
yay, 1st column grey...
12:44 am
rbud
oh, that's awful, so sad.
12:44 am
rururocks
i'm off to bed.. I'm exhausted from hearing jilli's partying schedule
12:45 am
jillibus
oh, anike, how horrible!
12:45 am
jillibus
Ijust need the O words for nbt
12:45 am
westford
so tragic anike can't imagine why he came back in
12:45 am
jillibus
ruru exaggerates
12:46 am
anike
It is jill - I struggle always at race meetings but you have to support your kids
12:46 am
grannyrose

12:46 am
rbud
ox 4 is a bad plural, if you ask me!
12:47 am
jillibus
rbud -- thks, and I sure do agree!
12:47 am
westford

12:48 am
jillibus
anike, it must be scary everytime
12:49 am
jillibus

12:49 am
westford
wtg jilli !!
12:50 am
jillibus
but no 7 or 8 and I don't care! that pillow is calling, calling...
12:51 am
anike
Always - but you have to learn to hide it or you can unsettle the rider and that is no good. At Phillip Island with the World Superbikes they combine some classes in the support races and this is how an inexperienced rider came to be in that race ( and others). Fortunately this doesn't happen at other round of the Australian champs. Darwin nest
12:52 am
anike
I mean Darwin next
12:52 am
westford
how old is Adam and how long has he been racing?
12:54 am
anike
Adam is 27 now (getting old) and he has been racing 10 years. He has won a West Australian State championship and has several National Historic titles - he just want to do well in another national championship.
12:55 am
westford
all the best to him and your family
12:55 am
jillibus
ditto, anike

12:59 am
anike
To Phillip Island is aboot 3500kms (37 hours) and Darwin is about 4000Kms. He was agreat Rugby Union player and i hoped he would stick with that and not follow his father but no such luck. Mind you - rugby players get some horrible injuries
12:59 am

6:02 am
MollyL
Morning JBV. I remember Esso.
6:03 am
JBV
no reason, hurshy, I just know some people are quite sensitive about what they consider clues too-close-for-comfort :)
6:04 am
hurshy
well i mean it would be bad to clue "pitiful" by saying "full of pity", i'll give you that, but heavens to betsy.
6:05 am

car.eeyore
Oh dear..was it delicious?!?!?
6:55 am
Trifioso
very. and, if I am going to indulge and have a treat, I would rather it was something like an ice cream bar - portion controlled and all!
6:55 am
car.eeyore
The muffin was portion controlled...it was a large portion!
6:55 am
car.eeyore
And it was my favorite kind...Cranberry Orange...so I am good with it!
6:56 am
Trifioso
but one bar is better than if I was scooping itmyself, and did the three scoop special....
6:56 am
car.eeyore
That is very true! Good girl!
6:57 am
Trifioso
I am so not in to work today. what is WRONG with me?
6:57 am
car.eeyore

6:58 am
car.eeyore
It is a snowy Saturday. Your son is home from school. Babble Land is a friendly place. Your bed is cozy. Need I continue?
6:58 am

In other words...there is NOTHING wrong with you!

here is the good DR,s view on computers...
8:04 am
crosshair
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, And the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, And your data is corrupted because the index doesn't hash, Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house, Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, But your packets want to tunnel onto another protocol, That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall ~
And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse, Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!
When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk, And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary risk, Then you'll have to flash your memory, and you'll want to RAM your ROM.
Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your mom!

Hello uusue2! How are you. Guess what, I am teaching at a Saturday school where students are learning about space.
7:19 pm
uusue2
very cool, min! I'll bet they were thrilled!
7:20 pm
Minveryork
We are going make our own planetarium with the planets.
7:20 pm
uusue2
oh, they should have a great time with that!
7:21 pm
Minveryork
I was going to do paper mache to make the planets. Is that the best way to make planets? Never made planets before.
7:22 pm
uusue2
that would work, or you could get various sized styrofoam balls from a craft store
7:23 pm
Minveryork
The students are going to research information on each of the planets. Then the students will do a mini-presentation when other students come visit our planetarium.
7:23 pm
uusue2
sounds great, min!
7:24 pm
Minveryork
styrofoam balls would probably neater. What would you do with the styrofoam,paint them? Also, how do suggest doing rings around the planets. So sorry for all of the questions.
7:24 pm
Minveryork
I saw you here, and just had to tell you about my project.
7:27 pm
uusue2
Yes, paint or markers. Rings you can cut from poster board. You'll have to attach them somehow, maybe with toothpicks.
7:28 pm
Minveryork
Great! Thanks uusue2.Have to go eat dinner. Be back later
7:29 pm
