rubyfoo

ooo, ty ty

3:20 am

kje

change the form of the word to an 8 also ruby

3:21 am

rubyfoo

found that one right away but still no 7's -- brain is very slow this AM

3:22 am

kje

da7 - plural of da6 bad guys

3:24 am

kje

da6 is variant of one of satan's minions

3:24 am

kje

ok, just got the other 9, it is a doozy, let me think how to clue it

3:24 am

kje

starts with mo5 python

3:25 am

kje

then ends in a prefix meaning stone minus the l

3:25 am

kje

that is an mo8, then plural for the 9

3:25 am

kje

sorry, suffix not prefix

3:26 am

vanillaslice

3:26 am

rubyfoo

3:27 am

rubyfoo

at least I have half

3:27 am

kje

here is the definitions: a large punch bowl, usually of silver, having a notched rim for suspending punch cups.
2.
Also called bonnet glass. a small stemless glass of the 18th century, having a bowl with a compoundly curved profile upon a broad foot.

3:27 am

kje

I use the word everyday

3:28 am

rubyfoo

only when you give a big party....

3:28 am

vanillaslice

like so many words here are everyday lingo

3:28 am

kje

I party every day

3:29 am

vanillaslice

funny how when I monkey words its not a word but they come up with the weirdest

3:29 am

rubyfoo

the word sounds very Upstairs Downstairs

3:32 am

vanillaslice

like sa5 meaningbelonging to or consisting of those branches of the Indo-European family in which alveolar or palatal fricatives, as the sounds (s) or (sh), developed in ancient times from Proto-Indo-European palatal stops: the satem branches are Indo-Iranian, Armenian, Slavic, Baltic, and Albanian.

3:33 am

rubyfoo

oh, ty, vanilla, I'll try to work that into my next dinner party (using the mo8, of course)

3:33 am

kje

I use that one every day too.... are you not literate?

3:33 am

vanillaslice

I like the palatal fricatives

3:34 am

kje

the word fricative is fun!

3:34 am

rubyfoo

the sa5 gave me the ta5

3:37 am

vanillaslice

so coughing would be a fricative

3:39 am

kje

sounds like a sub for cursing

3:40 am

rubyfoo

88 words, nbs, but can't find the right-hand e, which is probably a fish

3:40 am

rubyfoo

I may use a fricative!

3:41 am

kje

like the ae8 and 9 but minus the a

3:41 am

rubyfoo

hit me with a mackerel

3:41 am

kje

smack

3:42 am

rubyfoo

<-- smacked

3:42 am

Aloyisius

h'mm, fish and fricatives are flying.. dare I enter?

3:42 am

vanillaslice

the sound made by clicking with your tongue against your palate would be a palatal fricative...if you do it hard enough coz there has to be friction

3:42 am

kje

down to 2

3:42 am

kje

ah4 aloy!!!

3:43 am

rubyfoo

apparently he went mad in the end and walked around naked and had his house covered in sheets so no germs could get in!! no, none of the family got anything as all his money was tied in his businesses and american lawyers got involved.howard got his money from my great great grand father who died and left his money to his brother who was howard hughes father and howard made more money from it. my dad's cousin's wife threw all papers into a fire and so there was no evidence of family so they were told by solicitors that they couldn't get anything!!

1:39 pm

MollyL

Excellent choice. I love it when Noah Wylie is on the stand and his answer is "Well, because he'd kick my butt, sir."

1:40 pm

cosdem

lol that was a good scene. jack was great as usual

1:40 pm

bichon

what show is this Molly?

1:40 pm

MollyL

We're talking about the movie "A Few Good Men", Bich.

1:42 pm

bichon

I've seen that, years ago

1:43 pm

cosdem

really dislike jack nicholson but he is good in this

1:44 pm

MollyL

I don't care for Nicholson, Cruise or Moore, but I can handle them all in that movie. It's a classic.

1:44 pm

cosdem

agreed.

1:44 pm

bichon

cos, did you see him in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?"

1:44 pm

cosdem

yes love that movie too.

1:45 pm

bichon

I think he's had some great roles.

1:45 pm

cosdem

he does but i do not like how he treated Anjelica Huston

1:46 pm

bichon

but that's a script, not him as an actor

1:46 pm

cosdem

he, as a person, cheated and tossed Anjelica to the side but he as an actor is incredibly talented

1:46 pm

bichon

And "The Shining"

1:46 pm

cosdem

witches of eastwick and batman too.

1:48 pm

bichon

"he Last Detail"

1:48 pm

"Prizzi's Honor"

1:49 pm

Jack Nicholson is a Navy Noncom charged with bringing a hapless prisioner to the brig in Portsmouth NH.

1:49 pm

cosdem

LOVE that movie. Anjelica won an oscar for it :)

1:49 pm

bichon

As actors go, he's had his share of great roles

1:50 pm

cosdem

he and meryl streep are probably my generation's version of bogart and hepburn

1:50 pm

MollyL

Sticks fingers in ears, says LA LA LA, and pretends she did not hear Cos say that about Streep

1:51 pm

cosdem

lol at least she isn't julia roberts ugh

1:51 pm

bichon

what do you man Molly? They are not a match up in movies together

1:52 pm

MollyL

<---Not a Streep fan

1:53 pm

bichon

Molly, we are such polar opposites in move choices

1:53 pm

bichon

Did you ever see her in "Doubt"

1:54 pm

cosdem

Doubt was good. viola davis was the better actress in it though

1:54 pm

bichon

Streep had a much bigger role and both terrific.

1:54 pm

MollyL

I thought Doubt was a great movie. I think Streep over acts, all the time.

1:54 pm

bichon

bbl

1:55 pm

4:40 pm

How is your hip, Kap?

4:40 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Lousy.

4:41 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I wonder if it will get better soon, or what I have to do.

4:42 pm

Kaplan the Magne

How come I am even at the stage of life whee "how's your hip?" is a relevant question. hat am I- 85?

4:42 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It's so unfair.

4:43 pm

stidmama

and what's wrong with 85??

more importantly, what happened to your hip, kaplan --

4:43 pm

MollyL

Do stretching exercises help at all?

4:43 pm

Kaplan the Magne

85 is not so good when you're still in yr 50s.

4:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

In the middle of a flareup I think I am supposed to rest it. I iced it.

4:44 pm

stidmama

ah, yes -- rest, ice... do you take anti inflammatories? I can't any more, but they used to help a lot.

4:45 pm

Kaplan the Magne

But I really hate it when I miss my gym class on Friday. Till this year I was going 5 times a week, now I'm lucky if I do 3.

4:45 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I took alleve in the morning. But I think I need more.

4:47 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Kvetching.

4:47 pm

stidmama

this is a long-term issue? have you noticed anything in particular that triggers it? -- my hip sometimes just pops out for no reason, but I definitely have identified a few things that always pop it out.

4:47 pm

MollyL

Kvetching is good, it purges you. : )

4:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't know. It seems to be becoming chronic but I don't know if there are triggers. It's osteoarthritis, suck it up I guess.

4:49 pm

cybernan

hello again :)

4:49 pm

MollyL

And kvetching clears out your genecktecessoink. No big whoop. : )

4:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I think I will have to start going back to spinning classes- zumba has become aa no-no.

4:49 pm

cybernan

te 7, please?

4:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Some advice says to rest, others say to be active.

4:50 pm

stidmama

that's rough, kaplan -- docs can only do so much with osteoarthritis, but there are some things they can do. What does your actual doctor say to do?

4:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

This is what my parents told me would happen.

4:50 pm

MollyL

te7...Dick Tracy is a de***tive + not loose, spelled differently

4:50 pm

lynxxx

te7 security pro****s you and not loose

4:51 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I am due for an annual. I went to PT which is frustrating. I have neck exercises and thumb joint exercises.

4:51 pm

stidmama

It may be that a good physical therapist could give you specific exercises to strengthen support muscles -- relieve some of the wear on the joint. Sometimes just fixing mechanics can help (but of course only so far, depending on the actual loss of cartilage and bone)

4:52 pm

cybernan

ty lynxxx

4:52 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I think I do most of those exercises in the gym anyway- squats and lunges and abductor raises and all that.

4:52 pm

cybernan

*!* ta da *!* - really tough!

4:53 pm

MollyL

Ah, as usual.

4:53 pm

stidmama

YAY nan!

4:53 pm

lynxxx

Congrats C'nan - an yes it is!

4:53 pm

cybernan

lots of projects on the go, so can't hang around -- see you at the flip :)

4:53 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I really think this is a "suck it up" situation. But I don't see my friends staggering when they walk.

4:53 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thanks for listening.

4:54 pm

MollyL

Any time Kap.

4:54 pm

stidmama

I am thinking about more specific exercises that help align the joint properly. I had someone many years ago give me some very specific things to do for a knee that was troublesome due to the usual female structures, and it helped. It was strengthening the exact muscles to line up the joint and kneecap in a particular way. Good luck with it, kaplan.

4:54 pm

lynxxx

We just need to get you on the Joint Guard I have my dog on Kap, done wonders for him

4:55 pm

stidmama

yes, lynxxx! exoskeletons for all! Mine will be pink with sparkles, and phosphorescent racing stripes *wicked mama grin*

4:56 pm

lynxxx

really Stid - female structure? I have that problem too. I do probably the same excercise

4:58 pm

stidmama

women's hip's tend to have a wide angle, so our thigh bones enter the knee at an angle that wears the kneecap and joint strangely. Strengthening the muscles to hold the kneecap in position and re-align the ends of the bones slightly worked for me.

5:00 pm

lynxxx

Thanks - copying that.

5:00 pm

MollyL

I see Inge on line. If anyone is with her, who can read for her, please tell her we miss her very much.

5:01 pm

stidmama

definitely check with a physical therapist or other medical professional, though! We are all so different, your exercise needs might be different from mine.

5:01 pm

stidmama

ditto molly's comment re inge...

5:02 pm

stidmama

well, down below 60. need to go take a few minutes with the dog in the yard between raindrops. *poof*

5:03 pm

lynxxx

Have done all that, xray, specialist, physio - couldn't walk without pain several years ago. Physio go me back to normal, do the excercise when I feel twinges.

5:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The ankle bone's connected to the knee bone, etc.

5:13 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Is it bad when it tingles down to your foot?

5:14 pm

Kaplan the Magne

googling symptoms- brb

5:16 pm

lynxxx

You should probably go to GP and see what he/she says b4 you continue vigorous exercise - sometimes that can aggrevate

5:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

True.

5:25 pm

lynxxx

There are lots of oral medicines for joint pain now...Glucosamine very common here...really make a difference. And seriously you wouldn't believe the diff in my greyhound, limping badly on and off for a couple of years, now on a shellfix mix (inluding gluco above), hasn't limped since he started on it. Of course if you have dodgy hips in yr family, surgery may be the answer - but that operation is a pushover nowadays - my FIL had 3 done from ages 60-89!

5:33 pm

And I misread something that said polar express the other day- I saw Bipolar Express.

6:47 pm

ChampFit

I misread things all the time!

6:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have pronounced misled as misled.

6:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

As in pt of misle.

6:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Don't misle me. Ah, you misled me, etc etc.

6:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have read "greats" as rhyming with---oh-oh- PB!

Epitome. I read it as epi-TOME. Moron!

Ebay can be evil.

7:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't usually do it, but in the last couple of weeks, I have discovered the rush of bidding in the last 10 seconds. I think I need to steer clear of this.

7:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thank goodness my stakes are small. But I understand gamblers a teeny bit.

7:02 pm

gapeach

Is mo5-12 the guitarist Richards? Thanks

7:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I just picked up a few fountain pens is all. I hope someone outbids me tonight on the last one. I need to stop. I am getting like my father was when he was losing it.

7:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

One of the last purchases he made before he died was an ancient (of course) Roman coin for $700. And that was before e-bay.

7:04 pm

torgone

mo5 is Mo*** Hall of Let's Make A Deal

7:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have recently spent perhaps $150.

7:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

That's enough

7:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Obviously none of you are addictive people so you can't relate.

7:05 pm

torgone

Or Mo** Blanc + a vowel

7:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

He spelled it with a y. Door Number 3!

7:06 pm

gapeach

Thanks so much, tor.

7:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Speaking of Mo** Blanc, my dad had one of their pens and it could be worth a couple hundred or more- if it's not a counterfeit.

7:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I might sell it.

7:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

None of you are into fountain pens.

7:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, well.

7:07 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for mo8-50? Thanks

hi mkg.....:)

9:01 pm

mkg

hi alta. any clues for the 8s or 9s?

9:02 pm

Altagolfnut5

no sorry:( just started and no where near any 8's or 9's! and I'm new at this, so it takes me forever

9:02 pm

Altagolfnut5

have enough trouble with 4 letter words!

9:03 pm

MPittore

mo...sounds kinda like english show mo*** python circus.....

9:04 pm

MPittore

expand on the mo5/12 befor then pl it

9:05 pm

stidmama

mkg, the only 8 I have is ae 8/45; same as the es 7/32 which is a person who focuses on the "pretty" quality of things (a simplified explanation, Oscar Wilde was one of these people)

9:05 pm

MPittore

ending is like rolling stones K**** richards

9:06 pm

Jacula

ae8/45 = an arty farty person. ae9/66 = pertaining to beauty and sensitivity. de8/50 = pertaining to the use of food. es8.50 = same as ae9. mo8 and plural 9 = a punch bowl - the sort with hooks around it for cups to hang on.

9:06 pm

stidmama

hey Mpitt and alta

9:06 pm

Altagolfnut5

ty stidma!

9:06 pm

MPittore

hi there stidmama

9:06 pm

stidmama

ha! and Jac! I can retire now, you're all in good hands!

9:07 pm

Jacula

Stid - don't you dare! I only popped in for a moment!

9:07 pm

stidmama

that's a di 8/50 actually...

9:07 pm

stidmama

and thanks!

9:07 pm

Altagolfnut5

lol

9:07 pm

Jacula

stid's right - the food one is a di8.

9:08 pm

stidmama

oooh --- I never knew punch bowls had an ae 9 name! *wicked mama grin*

9:08 pm

stidmama

that's all the 8s and 9s for me, first time in a while, thanks Jac

9:08 pm

Jacula

shaddupayourface! Stid. LOLxxx

9:09 pm

Jacula

y/w re the clues, stid.

9:09 pm

stidmama

how are you doing jac? never see you anymore

9:10 pm

Jacula

I'm okay thanks, stid. Might be brighter news on the job front soon. How are you?

9:12 pm

stidmama

same -- teaching jobs for next year are beginning to open up, so far only a few that I am qualified for in commuting range, but hopeful I will land a good "first job" in the next 6 months or so.

9:12 pm

Jacula

I hope so, too, stid.

9:13 pm

stidmama

are you looking for writing work, jac?

9:15 pm

Jacula

stid - I have to make the writing work myself, but it's coming. I accidentally signed up for an agency in Birmingham Alabama, not realising it wasn't Birmingham UK at the time. If I lived in Alabama it seems there would be opportunities galore, given the amount of stuff the site keeps sending me, even though I have said, 'take me off your list, I made a mistake'.

9:16 pm

Jacula

Beloved has has 2 possible job offers (he's a trucker) and they came within a couple of hours of each other after months of zilch! Life is strange!

9:16 pm

stidmama

*gasp of embarassment* I didn't know there was a Birmingham in the UK! that would be a bit of a commute for you, though!

9:17 pm

Jacula

stid - Birmingham UK is the second city (capital city) after London!

9:17 pm

stidmama

oh, I hope he gets a job he likes, I didn't know he was out of work

9:18 pm

Jacula

Many place names in the USA and Canada are the same as ones in UK. The pilgrims who went to the 'New World' often named places after where they came from.

9:18 pm

stidmama

I know Jacula, but we don't hear about places other than London, or sometimes Edinburgh (which I think some folks think is next door to London), and occasionally Liverpool if they are talking about the Beatles. *I* know of more places, but had completely forgotten your Birmingham. I am glad you reminded me.

9:19 pm

stidmama

yes, my ancestors in New London Connecticut, for example...

9:19 pm

Jacula

Stid - me, my son and my Beloved all got made redundant within a month of one and other.

9:19 pm

Jacula

Almost 9 months with no work for all of us now!

9:20 pm

stidmama

well that's just crap, Jacula. *very annoyed mama look* don't they know you need money to pay rent and such?

9:20 pm

Jacula

stid - they know but they don't care.

9:21 pm

stidmama

corporations can be real poopy-heads.

9:23 pm

Jacula

Actually, we don't pay 'rent', since we own our house. Ours is a mortgage and it's almost finished. However, the running costs of a household cost more than the mortgage payments.

9:24 pm

stidmama

that is very true, Jacula -- we have mortgage, food, utilities, gasoline (we live outside town so rely on personal transport -- no buses), etc etc etc. And Tom's income keeps going down and everything (except the mortgage) keeps going up. And my income barely pays my student loans. We are NOT getting ahead in anything.

9:26 pm

Jacula

stid - I think it's the same the world over and much worse in some countries than it is for those of us in the 'developed' world.

9:26 pm

stidmama

**international hugs across the pond**

9:27 pm

Jacula

But I doubt the balance of haves and havenots will ever change, and I doubt that the plight of those in need in underdeveloped countries that have corrupt governments will ever change.

9:28 pm

Jacula

((Hugs)) stid back.x

9:28 pm

Jacula

Anyone need any quick grid clues before I go?

9:28 pm

stidmama

I fear our species is well embedded in those dynamics, Jac -- but I perhaps naively still hope that things can improve in the long run.

9:28 pm

stidmama

well, I am down to 36...

9:29 pm

stidmama

but Lucky wants me to stop playing and start playing...

9:30 pm

Jacula

stid - a fear you are right about the embedment (if there is such a word!) but we can but hope.

9:31 pm

Jacula

15 minute window for clues now. Ready, steady, ask!

9:32 pm

Jacula

Oops! Almost gave a grid word away in that last post. LOL

9:33 pm

Jacula

stid - who is Lucky and what does he/she/it want you to play?

9:37 pm

Jacula

to6/21 clue - a bird. (Or try the name of one of Stid's family + a bosom.)

9:39 pm

Jacula

ti5.12 and ty5.16 = a tenth part of produce or money usually paid to the church.

9:39 pm

Jacula

6 more minutes to ask for clues...

9:40 pm

Jacula

ti5.14 = the offspring of a tiger daddy and a lion mummy.

9:40 pm

uusue2

hi, jac!

9:41 pm

Jacula

sy6.24 = you might have a sy6 for doing the grid - it's your method of doing it.

9:41 pm

Jacula

Hi Sue!

9:42 pm

uusue2

thanks for the clues!

9:42 pm

Jacula

Just giving random, think people might need these, clues whilst passing the time before I leave.

9:42 pm

stidmama

sorry Jac and all -- neighbor came to the door. Back in a few ...

9:42 pm

uusue2

hi stid!

9:42 pm

Jacula

y/w Sue. Anything specific needed?

9:43 pm

uusue2

didn't understand the mo8 clue

9:43 pm

uusue2

(I can picture the thing but don't know what it is called)

9:44 pm

stidmama

those 6s were great!!!

9:44 pm

stidmama

that mo 8 looks like an American surname...

9:45 pm

stidmama

maybe think French "mon" + misspell the ivories in your mouth?

9:45 pm

Jacula

sue - it's an anagram of 'thin mote'.

9:45 pm

Jacula

good clue, Stid!

9:45 pm

stidmama

oh, clever Jac!

9:45 pm

uusue2

ok, got it, thanks! never heard the word...

9:46 pm

Jacula

sue - don't forget the plural (usual ending)!

9:46 pm

stidmama

so Lucky is my dog, and he is very clingy today -- I think my being sick today and taking a long nap in the afternoon after being gone all morning made him anxious

9:46 pm

uusue2

right, got that too

9:46 pm

Jacula

stid - dogs are like that. So are cats, but only if you miss their meal time.

9:46 pm

stidmama

and Lucky wants me to play "earth ball" which is a large synthetic rubber ball with a textured surface like the earth

9:47 pm

Jacula

Dogs are much more concerned about how we can have fun with them as opposed to what we 'should' do for them.

9:48 pm

stidmama

definitely, Jac -- he thinks it would be lovely to play fetch ALL day long. Even when he is completely lame (bad hips) after only a half hour of hard play

9:48 pm

Jacula

Right! It's past the time that I should go again. Time I went. Nice talking but I must go now. xxx

9:49 pm

jesdraggon

evening all

9:49 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams dear Jac

9:49 pm

stidmama

hey jes!

9:49 pm

uusue2

bye jac, and hi jes!

9:49 pm

jesdraggon

how's everyone tonight?

9:50 pm

stidmama

so... today's veterinary lesson for the day is that budgie beaks are SHARP! AND they don't like to have strings untangled from around their toes. (But it really had to be done)

9:50 pm

uusue2

just got a very nice award at the university, so I am happy :-)

9:50 pm

jesdraggon

also, they aim for the corners of your fingernails, or your cuticles. :D

9:50 pm

stidmama

and yes, we removed the item with the dangerous string from the cage

9:50 pm

jesdraggon

yay sue!

9:51 pm

stidmama

actually, Apollo was aiming for the space between the fingers -- assume it has a fancy name, the webbed area.

9:51 pm

stidmama

YAY sue indeed!

9:51 pm

uusue2

:-)

9:51 pm

jesdraggon

9:52 pm

stidmama

(inquiring minds want to know)

9:52 pm

uusue2

service to the LGBT community on campus (I was the faculty advisor to the student group for almost 10 years)

9:52 pm

uusue2

I put a photo of the plaque on Facebook...

9:53 pm

jesdraggon

excellent! :)

9:53 pm

jesdraggon

i'll thank you for that too

9:53 pm

uusue2

pretty cool :-)

9:53 pm

stidmama

Sue, good for you! I am very pleased you have been there for the young people!

9:54 pm

9:54 pm

stidmama

10:13 pm

jesdraggon

yay wht!

10:13 pm

wht

Good for you Jilly. Were you successful?

10:13 pm

Jillyjill

It was hard to hold my tongue as they accused us of "ulterior motives"...guess we're trying to make the whole world gay....

10:15 pm

jesdraggon

because clearly if i can have a wife, that will instantly force everyone else on Earth to become gay, whether they want to or not, yeah? bah

10:15 pm

wht

Yeah, like they don't have any ulterior motives.

10:15 pm

Jillyjill

they're out to save our souls...don't you know?

10:16 pm

jesdraggon

and in the name of saving our souls, God will overlook any amount of their hipocrasy.

10:16 pm

wht

And they want the government to help do it. No understanding about why we don't have an established religion in the US.

10:17 pm

Jillyjill

We had one young man, a gay senior in high school who has bravely shared his story, he is well respected by his peers and his story had an impact...but in the end the board refused to add gender language to policy...and one board member has a gay son...for SHAME!!

10:17 pm

jesdraggon

did that board member vote for or against, jilly?

10:18 pm

wht

Jes, it is amazing that my wife and I have been able to stay married these 30 years what with a married lesbian couple right across the street. ;^)

10:18 pm

cosdem

shocking wht!

10:18 pm

jesdraggon

hahah. truly, wht! it's astounding that they haven't kidnapped your wife and inducted her into their wicked coven of lust!

10:19 pm

Jillyjill

ROFL with WHT...yep, 32 years married..one straight son and one gay son...wherever did we go wrong...

10:19 pm

cosdem

u do realize you get a free toaster if you let them convert ur wife?

10:19 pm

cosdem

32

10:19 pm

Jillyjill

go cos!!

10:19 pm

uusue2

darn, you mean I missed out on the toaster???

10:19 pm

cosdem

didnt mean tot ype in 32.. my cat did lol

10:20 pm

wht

Well, if they are trying to do that, they take a very subtle approach. They ask her to feed their cats when they are gone.

10:20 pm

Jillyjill

The biggest argument? That it is a choice to be gay...dear God!! Dark ages here...

10:20 pm

hokie carla

fireworks!

10:20 pm

uusue2

yay hokie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

10:20 pm

cosdem

lol its rididculous. they think i chose to be gay, i chose to be kicked out, i chose to drop out of HS... and wtg hokie

10:21 pm

wht

Just ask them when they chose to be straight, Jilly.

10:21 pm

wht

Wtg hokie

10:21 pm

uusue2

I have a poster on the wall of my office with a photo of a bunch of kids, it says "when did you choose to be straight?"

10:21 pm

Jillyjill

Nice wht!

10:21 pm

uusue2

and snap, wht!

10:21 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT hokie!!

10:21 pm

jesdraggon

that's easy, wht. they chose to be straight because it's 1: what god wants or 2: natural.

10:22 pm

cosdem

see --- being gay is being accepted more and more.. so now theyre going after women

10:22 pm

jesdraggon

people who think it's a choice honestly don't grasp that the whole "natural" argument is flawed six ways to sunday.

10:23 pm

jesdraggon

yup. you chose it cos, just to rebel. you'll grow out of it, and settle down, raise a nice family with 3 kids.

10:24 pm

cosdem

lol i better hurry then.. just turned 33... my dad was younger than i am when i was born

10:24 pm

cosdem

wow that was the first time i called myself 33

10:24 pm

Jillyjill

And boy do these bible thumpers feel threatened...they don't want their kids exposed to this...guess God had a plan giving us the gay son ...god help the poor boy or girl if they were born into their family!!

10:25 pm

cosdem

my childhood catholic priest wrote in his weekly newslettter a few months ago that he will not tolerate gay bashing in his parish

10:25 pm

cosdem

these who do will be asked to leave the church

10:25 pm

Jillyjill

Nice ownership cos!!...I'll be 54 on Monday...I earned these years...proud of who I am now!! Age does NOT matter!!

10:25 pm

jesdraggon

sad thing is, jilly, there probably is at least 1 or 2 kids in those families, they're just too scared to speak up for fear of their family's reaction

10:25 pm

Jillyjill

Nice Cos, my parish priest is very supportive as well....

10:25 pm

Jillyjill

*shudders at thought*

10:25 pm

cosdem

the more religious a family is -- the more likely they will have a gay child.

10:26 pm

Jillyjill

It still was hard for our youngest to come out to us...imagine how horrific...

10:26 pm

cosdem

it's usually lesbians though

10:26 pm

jesdraggon

SOOO happy to have had my family; my mom told me that it was none of her business who i date, as long as I'm happy and they don't abuse me.

10:26 pm

cosdem

10:27 pm

Jillyjill

Amen jes!

10:27 pm

cosdem

Jillyjill

10:29 pm

jesdraggon

Offer to foster your nephew for a summer (or a school year)?

10:29 pm

uusue2

can't understand parents disowning their children - my son is in and out of an abusive relationship that makes me unhappy - I won't have her in my house due to damage she has caused - but I would never disown him (although if he decides to keep her in his life I will only meet her on neutral ground until/unless she apologizes - very different situation, though!!!)

10:30 pm

cosdem

thats a good plan sue.. sad though

10:30 pm

cosdem

gotta run.. im late bye all

10:30 pm

Jillyjill

10:35 pm

Jillyjill

I will give a shout out to the teens here, what a change in the 7 years since our youngest (gay) one graduated. The teens now are vastly more accepting. But I still have nights at youth ministry when I have to call someone out for using "that's so gay"....

10:36 pm

11:00 pm

jesdraggon

et6 is the older word from which a newer word or phrase derives.

11:01 pm

stidmama

apparently by asking him to clarify something he was saying so I would better understand him. That usually does the trick. The other way to chase him off is to suggest a different interpretation of a point of law in a field I understand. He relaly hates that....

11:02 pm

mkg

stid, i lived through six adolescents and wow i am glad it is over.

11:02 pm
