Scrabbler

Annie, did you finish the book?

8:59 am

Anniebrook

yes I did, it was very interesting. Then I started reading The Devil's Gentlemen which is also about Hearst and Pulitzer with a terrible crime attached.

9:00 am

Scrabbler

Is that by Ian somebday?

9:00 am

Scrabbler

*somebody

9:01 am

Anniebrook

No, Harold Schecter

9:02 am

Scrabbler

I just read about that on Amazon--looks like a good book. Do you like it?

9:03 am

Scrabbler

And did you like the other book?

9:04 am

Anniebrook

It is a good book but I was getting tired of Hearst and Pulitzer at that point. I still have it and I will finish it eventually.

9:05 am

Scrabbler

I enjoyed it a lot. Now I am reading Matthew Pearl's latest book of historical fiction: The Technologists. It is about the start of MIT and the role of science and technology in 1868.

9:06 am

Anniebrook

That should be fascinating. I will look into it but my next book is Steve Jobs.

9:07 am

Scrabbler

I have a pile of unread books on a shelf and just ordered 3 more. I am such a bibliophile.

9:08 am

Anniebrook

Same here. I just cannot stop ordering books but I do have to cut down. I have started to reserve books at the library.

10:22 am

flosey

I've tried to copy/paste and start again but it won't let me copy to a doc.

10:24 am

spanner

I gave up yesterday, because of problems I was having. I was entering words that didnt show on the word list or tile stats, but when I tried to re-enter them, it kept saying I already had the word. No amount of refreshing could sort it out

10:25 am

flosey

that's exactly what's happening here spanner, thanks for letting me know, very strange

10:26 am

doseffing

... something like that happened to me on the 771 word day but that was the only time ... ... I figured it was some kind of freaky memory problem ... but never found out

10:26 am

Nef

Good Morning Everyone. How are you on this fine day?

10:26 am

flosey

that must have been very frustrating dos, to get all those words

10:26 am

flosey

hi Nef

10:27 am

spanner

Its the first time its happened to me, but I put it down to a glitch of mine, glad to know I am not going potty or my computer is not at fault

10:27 am

Jillyjill

10:27 am

10:27 am

doseffing

10:39 am

clear your temp files and cookies flosey?

10:40 am

flosey

don't know how?

10:40 am

crosshair

oh my...

10:40 am

spanner

Flosey, if its like I had it yesterday, you are just going to admit defeat and live without your fireworks for a day...

10:40 am

crosshair

ok,what i advise is google the program called c cleaner and use it once a week

10:41 am

spanner

Well Im off happy babbling all

10:41 am

crosshair

if you have never cleaned your temp files or cookies ever flosey,your computer must be stuffed with junk slowing it down

10:41 am

flosey

think that's the easier solution spanner, thanks

10:41 am

crosshair

lol

10:41 am

crosshair

facepalm

10:42 am

flosey

I do clean it out from time to time crossy

10:42 am

crosshair

i thought you said you never did a temp file cookie cleaning sorry

10:43 am

flosey

just don't know the term "cookie"

10:44 am

crosshair

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cook
ie

10:45 am

crosshair

it is basically pre-fetch data of every single site you have ever been to

10:46 am

crosshair

think of it this way,you memory is a glove box and cookies are road maps to places you have been.after a while with all those cookies to all those sites,it is like having a glove box with 100,000 old road maps in it

10:46 am

crosshair

:)..mmm not bad if i do say so myself:))

10:46 am

flosey

will do that later, am copying the words I have, will start all over again and enter into clean box

10:47 am

flosey

great crossy, makes sense now

11:01 am

harpjane

MollyL

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

11:23 am

Anniebrook

Thanks Molly

11:24 am

crosshair

crossy is back:) c cleaner is free ware the the best program out there for cleaning your computer

11:24 am

rururocks

there is a "safety" header on your computer annie..click on that and cookie cleaning comes up on the menu

11:24 am

crosshair

it is quite fool proof as well,lets you tidy the registry cleaner without the danger of actually going right into it yourself

11:25 am

crosshair

tidy the registry*

11:26 am

Anniebrook

thanks, crossy and ruru...Saturday my niece is having a pool party and Liz and Doug are taking us I will ask them to do it. I am not really cowardly but this scares me. I dont want to mess up my computer.

11:27 am

Anniebrook

I copied everything you all suggested.

11:27 am

crosshair

and has a program removal option so things are erased cleanly and you are not left with bits and pieces in program files and the registry

11:27 am

crosshair

not to worry annie..any computer geek friend will know and highly recommend c cleaner

11:28 am

crosshair

and help you with it

11:28 am

crosshair

15 minutes with it and you will be an old pro at it

11:29 am

crosshair

and you will also notice more computer speed and stability when you are done

11:29 am

Anniebrook

thanks crossy :)

11:41 am

rururocks

cuz we play this on a PC molly..lol

11:41 am

MollyL

No, one ps

11:51 am

Maybe a lobotomy would have worked?

crosshair

porlitical correctness..gets out of hand and bores me

11:53 am

Well something has to be cockeyed to be like that! I'd settle for his head on a platter!

11:53 am

onyx

ok now really ps.. is a word?

11:54 am

MollyL

It's a word that is the spelling of a sound

11:54 am

12:43 pm

rururocks

12:43 pm

rururocks

12:43 pm

crosshair

that is not hunting anyways.do not know what that is..like using tnt to work the fishing hole

12:44 pm

carleekat

i do want to TRY hunting tho..i want to see if i could get my own food if I had to...

12:45 pm

crosshair

common over carlee,ill take you in when the boys do the primitve weapon bear hunt with compound bows

12:45 pm

carleekat

not a fan of fishing...leave that to my son... but I am not a huge sprot hunter proponent for the head...if i kill something..i will use the meat

12:45 pm

carleekat

Hi Wht, it's very quiet here tonight. Kind of like a library.

Yes it is. People must be booking it through the grid.

7:01 pm

girlie

ok, I have been babbling for years, only *just* realised that the question marks next to the words in my list have a purpose

7:02 pm

MollyL

Light bulb moment for girlie : )

7:02 pm

They give you definitions for the words you know and no definition for the really odd ones.

7:03 pm

7:04 pm

I actually dreamt last night that there was a gerund in the list that I had missed. Too much babbling.

It is a definite warning sign when you start dreaming about Babble.

just got up to put broccoli on to cook.

7:27 pm

I have a willow trellis up for the peas! :-) Need to send Tom out to the garden to take some pics for me now that the squall has passed. I am in "feet up" mode for the rest of the day.

7:28 pm

stidgmere

Dad is back and feeling successful. The pump that refused to pump now works thanks to better o rings.

7:29 pm

stidmama

marvelous! so glad he also had a successful day. We worked in the yard about 3.5 hours today, and got maybe 1/20 of the work I wanted accomplished. But, it's a start...

7:30 pm

Summer is ahead of us and we have many good outdoor days to look forward to.

hey nrk... are you feeling any better? *worried mama look*

7:32 pm

nrkii

burn gel is still working

7:32 pm

stidmama

you are SO LUCKY *fuss fuss*

7:32 pm

nrkii

I'll wash it off and switch to ice water later

7:32 pm

nrkii

but it is hard to type with my hand in a bucket of water

7:32 pm

nrkii

I am very very very lucky

7:33 pm

stidmama

yes, that is true

7:33 pm

nrkii

believe me, my biggest thoughts in the 30 minutes after my little flare-up were about how lucky I was that it was not a lot worse

7:33 pm

stidmama

I vote that you move to a place with a live-in chef and heavy-lifter... *brings out the fire-proof bubble wrap*

7:34 pm

stidgmere

nrkii is moving to a cruise ship?

7:34 pm

nrkii

the thing is, my grill scares me, so I meant to put off fixing it till my brother came to visit in August, but I just got into "check it off the list" mode and that made the list

7:34 pm

nrkii

ooh, I could stand a year or two on a cruise ship

7:34 pm

stidmama

hm, that's an idea... cruise ships have built-in cabana boys if you plan it right!

7:35 pm

nrkii

as long as it was a small one -- 100 passengers or fewer

7:35 pm

stidmama

nrk, saying this as a friend -- some things are just not meant for self-service!!

7:35 pm

stidgmere

Nrkii mistook her hand for a top sirloin? Oh no. First I have heard about this.

7:35 pm

nrkii

the whole city-on-water cruise thing doesn't appeal to me

7:35 pm

nrkii

stidmama, you are so right

7:35 pm

stidmama

nrk: cruise ship on the riviera...

7:35 pm

nrkii

yes, stidgmere, my hand and my hair

7:36 pm

nrkii

oooh, riviera... yes

7:36 pm

nrkii

will Cary Grant be there?

7:36 pm

stidgmere

Hair too. ooo Very not good. Is your head okay or singed?

7:36 pm

wht

Does that mean that those beautiful curls in your icon are gone?

7:36 pm

stidgmere

Riviera is not heaven.

7:37 pm

nrkii

just slightly singed... nothing Nellie can't handle

7:37 pm

stidmama

you know, nrk, when he was little our family joke was who would "cary grant" --- our younger son being Grant...

7:37 pm

nrkii

:)

7:37 pm

rururocks

singed how?

7:37 pm

stidgmere

Okay. Too close a call from what you are describing.

7:37 pm

stidmama

we could bring him along (he's a bit of a girl magnet, though, so we'd have teeny-boppers in droves)

7:38 pm

stidmama

hey ruru -- what wine goes best with that lovely burned keratin smell? (thinking vodka maybe)

7:38 pm

rururocks

anything from Mendocino in 2008 Stid

7:38 pm

nrkii

ruru, I lit my grill hastily with a lighter, after too much gas had already come out. Big whoosh of fire, that singed my hair and burned my hand.

7:38 pm

stidmama

rofl ruru!

7:38 pm

nrkii

LOL, must go check my wine rack.

7:38 pm

rururocks

holy cow.. are you ok?

7:39 pm

stidgmere

Tis the season for grilling. Also tis the season for remembering how to light monster grills.

7:40 pm

nrkii

I did a little put out the fire put out the fire dance, then realized there wasn't any fire, then hosed everything down (including myself) to be sure there would not be a fire... then took a shower to get rid of the burnt hair smell, got some burn gel for my hand, and settled in for a nice quiet evening at home...

7:40 pm

nrkii

typical Sunday, really

7:40 pm

7:41 pm

Ruru, I am feeling like a Darwin Awards runner up, but otherwise pretty much fine.

7:41 pm

rururocks

wow.. i'm glad you are okay nrkii.. that's pretty scary

7:41 pm

stidgmere

Very wonderful mama. Wash the car tomorrow as they will eat up the paint with elderberry droppings.

7:42 pm

I won't tell you about the time I got my long hair wrapped up in a circular sander. We have all done things we know better than to do.

7:42 pm

ooh, hair in sander... that sounds like me

7:43 pm

HarryHood

yikes stid! that's a brush with death

7:43 pm

Don't tell nrkii about it

7:54 pm

Jillyjill

I used my homemade pesto base with chicken, zuccini, mushrooms, onions, artichoke hearts, basil, feta and mozzarella cheese.

7:55 pm

stidmama

does sound lovely, jilly -- I have been using artichoke tapenade as a base for pizzas lately, but pesto would be a nice change

7:55 pm

Jillyjill

Never could spell that Z vegie...

7:56 pm

stidmama

zucchini

7:56 pm

Jillyjill

Almost sent myself to PB again...anyway artichoke tampenade is a GREAT idea!!

7:56 pm

that does sound good jilly. We have sun dried tomatoes, spinach, onlion, sweet red pepper and garlic. We cook it in tiled oven

7:56 pm

Jillyjill

Has it ever been in a grid?

7:56 pm

stidmama

the H is there to tell you not to make the American "ch" sound... otherwise in Italian it would sound like zoo-cheen-y

7:56 pm

stidmama

hey bichon

7:57 pm

I am finished! I have fireworks! wo 7/52 was my last word.

8:25 pm

Minveryork

I will be here off and on to help with clues if anyone needs

8:25 pm

ch1212

hurrah for minver! Care to clue that last word?

8:26 pm

Minveryork

A wo7/52 word is the wo5/20 word plus past tense ending.

8:26 pm

Minveryork

Hello ch1212! How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log

8:27 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT minv!

8:27 pm

ch1212

Thanks, Min. I should have known it was fishy ;)

8:28 pm

stidmama

YAY min!!!

8:29 pm

stidmama

down to 15 here. ((ch)) it has been a lovely spring day here (too bad it's actually summer, eh?)

8:29 pm

stidmama

oh! there's supper. Tom just brought it in. back later *zip*

8:30 pm

ch1212

did you weather yesterday's sudden storm burst? We had huge winds, hail, torrential downpour, tree limbs down, and scattered power outages. Storm only lasted about 10 minutes!

8:30 pm

ch1212

nevermind. She's off to supper :)

8:30 pm

Jillyjill

Where are you at ch1212?

8:31 pm

Jillyjill

We had bad storms here yesterday in MT

8:31 pm

ch1212

Near Seattle, same as Stidmama.

8:31 pm

Jillyjill

Ahh, we got them after you...

8:32 pm

ch1212

I see you are an amazing, brave woman to teach the high school kids! I taught senior confirmation at our parish for awhile --- the kids can be a real gift ... or challenge ... or both ;)

8:33 pm

Jillyjill

I truly love it! Great teens here. Balances my nursing career.

8:35 pm

Jillyjill

Our diocese is taking teens to Creation Northwest in Emenclaw in July...I'm coming too!

8:35 pm

Jillyjill

Probably botched that name...LOL

8:36 pm

negativeneil

Hi people.

8:36 pm

Jillyjill

Hi there negative neil!

8:36 pm

negativeneil

Just "Neil" is fine, Jilly.

8:36 pm

ch1212

I haven't heard of that. I'm going to check it out online. Sounds interesting!

8:37 pm

nrkii

Jillyjill and ch1212, if you happened to attend church this weekend, did you find the homily to be rather... political?

8:37 pm

nrkii

I'm just curious if it was specific to my church, or if it was a coordinated effort.

8:38 pm

Jillyjill

Not here...our priest is retiring and this was his last homily. He's been here 12 years...we all were crying!

8:38 pm

Minveryork

Hello Neil! How are you doing today? Welcome to the chog

8:38 pm

ch1212

Oh, nrkii ... I'm struggling more than usual right now. It is a coordinated effort by the USCCB over the next few weeks.

8:39 pm

ch1212

Jilly, your conference sounds like an ecumenical celebration! Excellent!

8:39 pm

Jillyjill

Plus he's old school progressive priest...thank god...I assume it's the contraceptive issue?

8:39 pm

nrkii

ch12, it was actually a very good homily, quite thoughtful, but I was just surprised because he pretty much never gets political

8:40 pm

Jillyjill

Subject?

8:40 pm

nrkii

yes, Jilly, it's the healthcare dictates

8:40 pm

nrkii

again, it was very thoughtful, and difficult to argue with

8:40 pm

nrkii

but still surprising

8:40 pm

Jillyjill

I can see both sides...it's a tough situation.

8:41 pm

rururocks

what does God have to do with Blue Shield?

8:41 pm

ch1212

They are framing the issues as "religious persecution" and calling it a fight for "religious liberty". At least, that's the presentation from our archdiocese.

8:41 pm

Jillyjill

I really thought Obama's option to remove them from direct connection was a great compromise.

8:41 pm

negativeneil

Hey ru. :)

8:42 pm

nrkii

ruru, it was more about religious freedom in the United States, the Constitution, and being able to practice one's faith freely

8:42 pm

rururocks

hi neil.. how are you

8:42 pm

Jillyjill

hey there ruru

8:42 pm

negativeneil

I'm well thanks... and you?

8:42 pm

rururocks

hi everyone

8:42 pm

negativeneil

Recovering from a hangover... otherwise well.

8:42 pm

rururocks

I"m doing well neil.. nice weather..lots of outdoor stuff today. a nice day

8:42 pm

negativeneil

Good ru. :)

8:43 pm

negativeneil

It's been a quiet day for me. :P

8:43 pm

negativeneil

As quiet as possible, haha.

8:43 pm

Jillyjill

If you want some insight in to how big this is getting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9vQt6I
XXaM

8:43 pm

rururocks

I believe in religious freedom nrkii.. however I don't feel the opposite that religion should be involved in politics

8:43 pm

negativeneil

I agree ru.

8:44 pm

Jillyjill

That's complicated too ruru, for instance social justice issues, death penalty etc

8:45 pm

rururocks

I think that if the Christian Church, Catholic Church and the Mormon Church want to pay out $$ to conservative causes. their tax free status should be revoked

8:45 pm

Jillyjill

What's ironic is that if we had just been able to get single payer system it'd be a mute issue

8:46 pm

rururocks

what kind of social justice issues jilly?

8:46 pm

ch1212

Nrkii, you are right -- it's a delicate issue in terms of folks who want to practice their faith in all areas, including government. It's an eons long question. Many Christian denominations (including Catholics) have trouble justifying certain wars, yet don't use the religious freedom argument to avoid certain taxes. Ditto with other health care issues -- for example, most insurance carriers provide vasectomies and other birth control measures to men, and have for decades. The Church has not spoken up about that before. Nor have we protested paying insurance premiums for employees who have other covered services that present a moral problem for the Church. .... It's just .... difficult.

8:46 pm

negativeneil

Exactly, ruru.

8:46 pm

Jillyjill

like hunger, the poor...

8:47 pm

rururocks

like gay marriage?

8:47 pm

Jillyjill

well said ch1212!

8:47 pm

negativeneil

Really, ru.

8:47 pm

negativeneil

Thanks for saying it. ;)

8:47 pm

Jillyjill

Both my boys have left the Catholic faith, one as he's gay, the other...well, it's complicated.

8:48 pm

negativeneil

So is my brother, Jilly.

8:48 pm

nrkii

Very well said, ch12

8:48 pm

stidmama

okie dokie. that was yummy

8:48 pm

nrkii

anyhow, I was not meaning to open a debate here, I was just wondering if I was the only one who heard that message today

8:48 pm

nrkii

and that commercial is astounding

8:48 pm

Jillyjill

I keep my teaching true to the Doctrine, many know my situation but no one has ever questioned it

8:48 pm

Minveryork

Hello rururocks!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

8:49 pm

rururocks

I wish the churches would just stick to hunger and the poor and stay out of people's bedrooms and lives. Contraception is a must in this world for a number of reasons.. and the Catholic Church's stand on it is archaic and stupid

8:49 pm

nrkii

"your vote will affect the future, and be recorded in eternity..." ummmmm, wow....

8:49 pm

rururocks

HI MInver I'm fine

8:49 pm

Jillyjill

Well, like I said, our beloved priest is leaving so we avoided that today

8:49 pm

negativeneil

I was going to say that ru... beat me to it again.

8:49 pm

Jillyjill

Yep ruru...you don't play the game; you should't make the rules....not terribly impressed with this Pope

8:50 pm

nrkii

I love my church. I don't agree with it on many issues, but I do love it.

8:50 pm

ch1212

My beloved, who has Masters degrees in theology and spirituality, is deeply troubled. He points out that the way the Church is trying to justify their posiiton is contrary to the gospel teachings. He is wise.

8:50 pm

nrkii

Kind of like a relative. Love 'm, but think they're kind of nuts.

8:50 pm

rururocks

the pope is complicit in allowing priests to molest children.. I don't have an issue with the church.. just many of their policies

8:51 pm

Jillyjill

ditto nrkii...I just hope I never have to make the choice.

8:51 pm

Jillyjill

Yep...

8:52 pm

Jillyjill

His previous assignment wiht the Doctrine of the Faith....gestapo

8:53 pm

rururocks

The Mormon Church was the largest provider of money to the Proposition 8 campaign in California... they should lose their tax exempt status in my opinion

8:53 pm

Jillyjill

I just worry about the future...especially with the situration of censuring our nuns

8:53 pm

rururocks

are you Catholic Jilly?

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

Yep..

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

With two planned children....lol

8:54 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

8:54 pm

jmcnrick

did you see about the nuns on the bus jilly?

8:54 pm

rururocks

Why can't Nuns be priests? Can they get out of the 13th Century?

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

I alone will answer to God, what other people do is none of my business

8:55 pm

rururocks

amen to that jilly.. exactly what I'm saying

8:55 pm

Jillyjill

You should look at this: http://nunsonthebus.com/

8:56 pm

jmcnrick

haha i love simone cambell!

8:56 pm

ch1212

Hi jmc! Come jump in the water with us :).

Jilly, I've been following the sister's struggle both in the media and on their Conference website. Our archbishop has been "assigned" to basically get them in line. I'm heartsick. I try to stay focused on my faith, contribute respectfully to the discourse when I can, and trust God.

8:57 pm

negativeneil

Hi jmc! How are you?

8:57 pm

jmcnrick

well i have been a big supporter of network over theyears

8:57 pm

jmcnrick

hi neil

8:57 pm

Jillyjill

I had previoiusly attended Deanery meetings with the Bishop...but when this all started up 1-2 years ago...never have gone since

8:57 pm

Jillyjill

And PRAY!!

8:57 pm

rururocks

what is this about jilly.. I don't know about this

8:58 pm

negativeneil

Nice little grid today. I should've done it earlier.

8:58 pm

jmcnrick

praying is a good thing to do

8:58 pm

Jillyjill

That it was NN

8:58 pm

Jillyjill

I love my faith, just not so much the managment....

8:59 pm

jmcnrick

the people in the church are just that. . .people doing the best they can

8:59 pm

rururocks

I wish that were true across the board jm

8:59 pm

Jillyjill

The Pope has accused American nuns of being 'out of control' and not adhering to Catholic teaching, being feminists...etc, etc etc

9:00 pm

rururocks

oh.. what would Hitler say?

9:00 pm

jmcnrick

hitler was an atheist

9:00 pm

Jillyjill

Basically censured the main organization

9:01 pm

rururocks

wasn't the Pope a Nazi?

9:01 pm

jmcnrick

one of the first things the nazis did was take over the lutherans in germany and drove out deitrich bonnhoffer and his brother

9:01 pm

jmcnrick

the current pope belonged to the nazi party when he was young

9:02 pm

rururocks

that says a lot

9:02 pm

Jillyjill

I don't know about that ruru, just wish we had another pope

9:02 pm

jmcnrick

it says he was at the very least caught up in a terrible time when he was very young

9:02 pm

Jillyjill

If it gets bad enough hubby and I will have to switch to the Episopalian church...

9:02 pm

ch1212

I have to run --- but jilly, nrkii, thank you for the sharing ... nice to know I'm not the only one who struggles with the church. [[[ hugs to all ]]]

9:03 pm

jmcnrick

of course ru never made a bad choice as a young man ;-)

9:03 pm

rururocks

The Catholic Church needs to arrive in the 20th Century at least

9:03 pm

jmcnrick

by ch1212 nice to see you

9:03 pm

Jillyjill

Well in his role with the Doctrine of the Faith...he was a bit nazi...

9:03 pm

Jillyjill

(((ch1212)))) back at ya!

9:04 pm

jmcnrick

there are catholic churches with . . . uh. . . different ideas in the US

9:04 pm

jmcnrick

haha jilly

9:05 pm

rururocks

A bit of a Nazi... that's like asking Mrs Lincoln.. "well.. Mrs. Lincoln other than the shooting .. how'd you like the play?"

9:05 pm

jmcnrick

catholic workers is a group you may find somewhat interesting. . .although most of them have taken vows of poverty

9:05 pm

Jillyjill

Well, there have been some strides forward...at least the USCCB put forth a document acknowledging that people are born gay...of course they can't act on it...I just keep thinking baby steps..baby steps....

9:05 pm

MollyL

Interesting conversation. The Catholic Church has a long history of downplaying the role of women in the church. It's unfortunate.

9:05 pm

jmcnrick

ahem i think some priests have been acting on it for a while

9:06 pm

Jillyjill

Or a schism of the American church...but many of the young priests are quite conservative

9:06 pm

jmcnrick

i know at least one of the french priests next door was pretty open about it.. .

9:06 pm

rururocks

right on molly.. so true

9:06 pm

negativeneil

Glad to hear they're starting to realize and acknowledge that fact, Jilly.

9:06 pm

Jillyjill

Gotta take exception jmc...we gotta keep homosexuality and pedophilia seperate

9:07 pm

negativeneil

No kidding. They are very separate.

9:07 pm

jmcnrick

no no i am not talking about pedophilia at all!

9:07 pm

MollyL

Good point, Jilly.

9:08 pm

jmcnrick

i am talking about a gay priest who lived next door and who had a pretty open relationship

9:08 pm

Jillyjill

It was hard to watch my son struggle through this...trying to be a Catholic and being gay...what is sad is that he, a very spiritual person, has totally given up on formal religion even though many churches welcome the gay poplulation

9:08 pm

MollyL

I've never understood the position of the Catholic Church that denies the sexuality of their religious orders.

9:09 pm

Jillyjill

ahhhh, sorry jmc, I misinterpreted your statement...I am sorry...

9:09 pm

jmcnrick

well we are in one of those periods where young people are rejecting religion left and right. . .

9:09 pm

rururocks

why would anyone jm? they are so restrictive and condeming

9:09 pm

bichon

It's not just young people

9:09 pm

rururocks

condemning

9:09 pm

MollyL

Jilly, blessings to your boy. It must be hard to feel shunned by your spiritual community.

9:10 pm

jmcnrick

thanks jilly i appreciate your understanding i was not talking about the rotten b*****

9:10 pm

bichon

I cannot understand the Catholic Church denying so many basic rights to people

9:11 pm

rururocks

me neither

9:11 pm

jmcnrick

well i do not find that to be true ru for quakers and unitarians and many other faiths . .

9:11 pm

Jillyjill

Yep, but he was a tremdously faith filled person...he was considering the priesthood...but the Church's ability to allow gay (celibate) priests has changed

9:11 pm

Jillyjill

But we just pray....and pray....and pray....

9:12 pm

rururocks

I would imagine it's a touchy subject these days jilly

9:12 pm

rururocks

what's with your other son?

9:13 pm

Jillyjill

Thanks molly, but our priest here was so very supportive. God provided that to me when I couldn't have stood on my own

9:13 pm

Jillyjill

Well, he will tell you it's doctrinal issues...but I think it also stemmed from what his baby brother went through

9:14 pm

rururocks

hmm

9:14 pm

MollyL

I'm glad you had that support Jilly.

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

it is hard when you see someone you love be hurt that way

9:14 pm

Jillyjill

There is so much good done by the Catholic church...it hurts to see the other parts

9:14 pm

jmcnrick

on the other hand my straight son has dropped out of being a quaker. . . .*sigh*

9:14 pm

Jillyjill

And he retired in Missoula, so he's not far away...if I need him..

9:15 pm

rururocks

yes.. we see that here.. they do ..do good things. But then I see the Mexican families with 12 kids and all living in one tiny apartment and curse the church

9:15 pm

Jillyjill

Actually, I was a convert jmc...tried a lot of religions etc...then landed here...

9:16 pm

jmcnrick

i was a convert to quakers

9:16 pm

rururocks

I don't know much about the quaker religion

9:16 pm

Jillyjill

I also watched large families not really able to adequatly parent their kids....

9:17 pm

Jillyjill

My Grandma had Quaker roots...

9:17 pm

jmcnrick

well we all agree that there is a direct relationship with. . . God . . .the inner light. . . the inner spirit. . . the inner Christ. . . but we don't even agree on what to call it

9:17 pm

Jillyjill

That's what I believe...

9:18 pm

MollyL

I just wish organized religions, of all kinds, could stick to the basic tenants. Love, understanding and forgiveness.

9:18 pm

rururocks

I'm an Atheist myself.. bet you couldn't guess that

9:18 pm

uusue2

evening, all! Lively discussion!

Jillyjill

I always said my oldest was worth 5 or 6...he had ADHD...if we had had more kids, I don't think he would have gotten thru adolescens

9:18 pm

jmcnrick

we believe that inner light exists in every person . . and from that we believe that you should try to love every person. . . even George W Bush and Karl Rove

9:19 pm

rove? how can you love the devil/

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

from our belief our 1600s opposition to slavery. . .our support for equal treatment of women. . . our opposition to war. . . pretty much everything comes from it

9:20 pm

jmcnrick

mag no one said faith was easy

9:20 pm

Jillyjill

I struggle with the love everyone thing too, only human. But I do pray for them!

9:20 pm

oh, was neil sick? I haven't seen him for a while

9:21 pm

rururocks

hung over I understand

9:21 pm

doing good and doing right sometimes seem in opposition

9:21 pm

jmcnrick

. . .for god to speak . . .

9:21 pm

magazinemom

So true. I'm a Methodist and I gave up on church because even they were too hypocritical for me...

9:21 pm

HI BDG

hey book!

nrkii

and willingness to see your church be wrong and to hope and pray for their evolution

9:22 pm

rururocks

what religion are you nrkii?

9:22 pm

nrkii

but I also know that where I disagree with my church, it is always possible that I am the one who is wrong

9:22 pm

magazinemom

I no longer call myself a Christian. There are too many bad connotations with that word. I'm a follower of Jesus.

9:22 pm

Jillyjill

again, you summed it up for me nrkii, and I am glad to know others feel that way

9:23 pm

blueheron

My greatgrandmother and grandmother were Quakers.

9:23 pm

9:26 pm

Jillyjill

brb...

9:26 pm

jmcnrick

that is one of the things i love about babbleland jilly. . .i can tease and play with promilitary and they can tease and play with me. . . we can talk about religion without getting our knickers in a twist. . .

9:26 pm

uusue2

I agree, jmc, babbleland is an awesome place to be!

9:27 pm

i went to nine GAs in a row, and a cheap as I could do it, and it still cost about $800. usually more like $1,000 when I didn't try to cheap it out

I think the people in this chat log are a moderate group as a rule

9:27 pm

jmcnrick

hi dan2

9:27 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

chat room etiquette is to play nice, generally speaking

9:27 pm

jmcnrick

well i think most of us have learned to moderate ourselves

9:28 pm

nrkii

jmc, yes, I agree on the last point... I don't think it's a moderate group, but we police ourselves well

9:28 pm

rururocks

i've said things I regret later.. but generally behave

9:28 pm

nrkii

(if you all only knew how non-moderate nrkii is)

i live 2 miles away from the evacuation zone. but they just lifted the evac for that area.. although the fire is still at 2500-3000 acres and 0% containment. the sun is sure pretty and the smell reminds me of camp...makes me feel guilty thinking that

If it weren't for the the archaic Scots words, what fun would Babble be?

9:58 pm

dan2bit

toddler wisdom of the day - miss2bit, as she was literally running circles around me in the driveway, told me she was "freakin out" - when I asked what that meant, she said "going this way and this way and this way"

9:58 pm

uusue2

Indeed. If I ever meet some archaic Scots I will be all set.

9:59 pm

uusue2

sounds about right, dan! :-)

Ho5/26 babblers! I am done with grid so here is a story of clues. My favorite sport to watch is basketball. I love it when they make a sh 4/5 and the basketball goes sw 6/33 right through the ho4/6 and then you hear the oo 4/5 and aahs from the crowd. Husband does not like to watch basketball games though. Hubby op4/5 to watch baseball instead. He ow 4/8 Yankee paraphernalia that he has bought in various sh 5/14. He has many ph4/6os of the players. He writes po /6s about the team and po 4/5s them on FB. His favorite player is Derek Jeter who plays second base po 5/12ion. He wishes he could be in Jeter's sh 5/12 and make all that money. Hubby loves it when Yankees wh6/36 the pants off the Red Sox.Hubby wants the computer. I suppo4/5 I should st4/5 babbling and give it to him so he does not st 4/4 up trouble. I am going to watch a TV sh4/9 on the Ar4/4&Entertainment channel.Goodnight to all babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
