I don't either pugmama. I have an old, dead, empty page on there rotting in hell. I refuse to use that site anymore since I discovered there are countless web pages with scripts enabling any member of the public to view the full contents of any "private" FB page. Makes it totally useless to me.
1:09 am

I understand how to use it ,I just couldn't care less hearing about every though,action or fart of everyone I know on the planet & don't delude myself to think everyone would give a damn about mine

that's why I didn't go there.. the security factor..Plus who has the time?
1:11 am

I wouldn't want my paris hilton tapes out in public
1:14 am

Oh that's because of your settings, pugmama. I never get that because I only accept IMs from added friends, not from anyone not in my contacts.

Oh duh. Found it... and of course it was an easy, obvious one. So obvious I couldn't see it.

Yeah pugmama. I get all kinds of those on Yahoo because certain people know my online name and want to be my "friend". No thanks!

pugmama763
or using their head for something besides a hat rack maybe?>
1:20 am
negativeneil
You know? I never congratulate or "WTG" them when they finish, because they haven't done the grid. Everyone else cluing them on every word did it for them.

1:21 am

rururocks
dart's my middle name
1:25 am
negativeneil
So what is your first name, dart... or don't you tell anyone?
1:25 am
negativeneil
My middle name was a closely guarded secret... until a certain nameless person spilled it online. Ugh.
1:26 am
negativeneil
But that's ok... I made a good threat he remembers and thinks of before pulling any more stunts like that.
1:26 am
pugmama763
big deal it's not like YOU picked it
1:26 am
pugmama763
can blame that on the parents without guilt
1:26 am
negativeneil
Oh it's not that I hate it.
1:26 am
dizgrannie
'ruru-dart-rocks' nah no ring to it...lol
1:27 am

I met a 35 year old grandmother today..
1:49 am
rururocks
it seems that girls are having kids even earlier than ever before
1:49 am
negativeneil
Wow. Yeah I know that's possible and it happens.
1:49 am
negativeneil
And it's so easy to prevent. Makes you wonder.
1:50 am
dart001
probably can't afford the kid either
1:50 am
rururocks
living with grandma
1:51 am
flosey
the youngest I ever saw come in our clinic was 12
1:51 am
dart001
and the cycle keeps going usually too
1:51 am
rururocks
that's criminal
1:51 am
rbud
I had a friend late in 9th grade that already had one baby, and was pregnant again, back in about 1973. Big scandal around school. Wonder how old she was when she became a grandma...
1:52 am
flosey
they talked her into involving a parent, which she did so was
1:53 am
negativeneil
Oh my god, flosey. :(
1:53 am
flosey
Had a friend who was having a baby in grade 9, she had been married summer before classes went
1:54 am
negativeneil
Wow, rbud. I really don't understand it... it's sooo easy to prevent. Not rocket science!
1:54 am
flosey
what the kids can't believe is that their mother would really want to know and help her in decisiion
1:54 am
rururocks
I don't think it is easy to right your life having children that young
1:54 am
rbud
My mom was 15 when she and dad married, but they didn't have any kids (me) until 10 years later. They musta used something, hmmm...
1:55 am
negativeneil
No. It would totally mess up your life.
1:55 am
negativeneil
No kidding rbud. And I don't have any kids running around either. [That I know of.]
1:55 am
rururocks
how much older was your dad?
1:55 am
negativeneil
Joking of course... I know there aren't any.
1:55 am
flosey
at 15, it really does mess up their teen years
1:56 am
negativeneil
Wow. That's incredibly young to get married.
1:56 am
negativeneil
How many 15 years olds even think about it?
1:57 am
negativeneil
You know... I mean seriously consider it.
1:57 am
rbud
Hillbillies, lol! She was glad to get away, she was the oldest, her mom and dad divorced, he remarried and had 7 more, she was senior babysitter.
1:57 am
rururocks
he didn't get arrested rbud?
1:57 am
negativeneil
Oh. Well THAT explains it. :P
1:58 am
negativeneil
Yeah. Marriage would be better than the situation she was in I'm sure.
1:58 am
rururocks
or she married him at 15?
1:58 am
rbud
not back in 1947, lol, lots of folks married very young.
1:58 am
rururocks
so.. Rbud was born in 57 or 58
1:59 am
dart001
lifespan wasn't that long...and if you lived on a farm...had to have a lot of kids to help run it

One time we were fighting so badly, Dad grabbed each of us by the shirt collar and told us:
"If you two are going to fight take it outside, and try not to refrain from anything that results in permanent disfigurement or expensive dental work."
2:08 am
negativeneil
Of course that cracked us up and we were laughing so much, we forgot what we were fighting about.
2:08 am
negativeneil
Sorry "try to refrain".
2:08 am

I'm too tired for coherent typing. lol

10:50 am
rururocks

rururocks
<---flosey... THE sharpest knife in the drawer
10:52 am
flosey
well ru, I could believe that
10:53 am
flosey
ah, a type of grill?
10:54 am
lilliann
my daughter and i had a raclette last week. we like them, but you can't get the cheese here
10:55 am
flosey
ah, so it is a special kind of cheese? what would it be similar to here?
10:56 am
lilliann
it is a grill too flosey.i buy the aquare slices, any soft cheeses.we like edam, red leicester, smoked cheese
10:56 am
flosey
and it is served over boiled potatoes?
10:57 am
lilliann
it'slike a griddle pan on top where you cook your food and then you put it in the little triangle pans provided and then put it under the grill which is under the griddle pan. it is electric, so portable
10:58 am
MollyL
Is the PB closed today? Or has Lillliann been granted special dispensation?
10:58 am
lilliann
anything you want. we cook meat and prawns, and courgettes, peppers,mushrooms, onions...anything you like really
10:59 am
lilliann
oh, am i in the pb? oh well, atleast i'll be able to rest my ankle and foot. and hi molly :)
11:00 am
lilliann

11:00 am
periwinkle

11:00 am
periwinkle

11:00 am

11:00 am

11:03 am
lilliann
i'll get my mam to send some more over from france and some wine and we'll have a good time :)
11:04 am

11:12 am
Aloyisius
hi flosey (-:
11:14 am
lilliann
hi aloy. i like to please :)
11:15 am
Aloyisius

11:17 am
flosey
sounds much like a fondue?
11:17 am
Aloyisius

11:17 am
lilliann
i'll add some lovely homemade cheese and fruit scones to the pb party.my daughter is making them now and telling me off for pinching the cheese ones.very tasty!!
11:18 am
flosey
love scones
11:18 am
Aloyisius
ooh, yum !
11:18 am
lilliann
no, nothing like a fondue flosey, you just put the cheese on top of your food to melt, if you want. i sometimes just griddle the food and don't bother with the cheese
11:20 am
flosey
I see, thanks Lilliann
11:24 am
flosey
there's no end to these re words
11:25 am

11:42 am
uusue2
hi again all, nbt finally
11:42 am
cybernan
I'm thinking there must be a lot of weird words in here
11:42 am
flosey
good morning nan
11:42 am
cybernan
I still have 125 to find but don't want to spend all day at this
11:42 am

Ugh. Back... sorry about that flosey.
11:42 am
negativeneil
Hi Sue! :)
11:43 am
uusue2
my goal is half way
11:43 am
uusue2
hi, neil!
11:43 am
lilliann
hi sue and neil
11:43 am
negativeneil
Sure there's enough eeeee's in this grid?
11:43 am
flosey
hi again Neil and sue
11:43 am
negativeneil
I'm thinking it could use a few more.
11:43 am
negativeneil
Hi Lilliann.
11:44 am
flosey
finally got through the Rs
11:44 am
uusue2
maybe some day there will be a grid that is all e's
11:44 am
lilliann
yay flosey!
11:45 am
flosey
wonder how many words Sue
11:45 am
cybernan
it's the c's I'm trying to get through!
11:45 am
negativeneil
All E's? That would be impossible to do anything with. I wonder if it could happen though? I don't know how random the software is that generates these puzzles?
11:46 am
flosey
they seemed endless too nan
11:46 am
negativeneil
I think Seain said he saw one grid on here that had only 13 words and only ONE consonant. Wow.
11:46 am
negativeneil
On sorry... I mean one vowel!
11:46 am
negativeneil
All consonants except for one letter.
11:47 am
uusue2
I suspect it has a bias towards the more commonly used letters, neil; I've seen multiple vowels on many occasions but seldom multiple j's or qu's (for example)
11:48 am
wht
Hi all. My guess is that it is the same distribution of letters you would find on Boggle cubes.
11:49 am
uusue2
ah, that would make sense, wht
11:50 am
wht
If it was all e's except one k, it would have 10 words. All the variants of eeek to eeeeeeeeeeeek
11:52 am
wht
clue for the first ha8?
11:53 am
flosey
tough one to clue wht, will try
11:54 am
negativeneil
You could be right Sue.
11:54 am
negativeneil
Hi wht.
11:54 am
negativeneil
Oh man, is that ever a tough one to clue.
11:55 am
negativeneil
You'd be better off using morewords for that one wht, seriously. I don't think I could think up a clue for that!
11:55 am
lilliann
hi wht ha and then lookes very much like the word for something that has rusted
11:56 am
negativeneil
It does, Lillian? The first one... ha8,50?
11:56 am
lilliann
or worn away but change one of the vowels for one of the many we have in the grid
11:56 am
negativeneil
Oh I'm with you now! Duh. :P
11:56 am
negativeneil
Haha, yeah. If you changed one vowel.
11:56 am
lilliann
well, i think so :)
11:57 am
negativeneil
ha + "wears away" except different 2nd vowel.
11:57 am
negativeneil
That's how to clue that one.
11:57 am
MollyL
ha8...mixed up word for rabbit + mixed up word for what you put in the ground
11:58 am
lilliann
good clue neil...don't know how you though of it? :)
11:58 am
cybernan

are there obscenity rules in the chog?
5:02 pm
cosdem
I avoid using foul language here because some people get really offended.
5:03 pm
MollyL
I don't think so. But I'm starting to wonder if certain "terms" are local in nature. Although, I've heard h4 used in plenty of movies, that are not pornos.
5:03 pm
cosdem
flip is generally the best time for risque language
5:03 pm
viajes
so if i just start typing "wtfg!" every time someone gets fw (or ffw!) they might not like it?
5:03 pm
cosdem
nah it wouldnt be a big deal viajes
5:03 pm
cosdem
well maybe lol
5:04 pm

wtfg sounds like it's sarcastic though... but ffw will be my new celebratory exclamation
5:04 pm

Hello iamme. The letters on the tiles in the grid tell you what each letter is worth and, as Molly said, the tile stats tell you how many words start with that letter.
