wow, 99,000 people at the AFL final! Looks like Austrialian rules football is a combo of football (aka Soccer in the rest of the world) and some American football (aka US football). And the final is like the US Super Bowl.
2:06 am
grannyrose
you got it one, marais. this is a nail-biter
2:08 am

8:55 am
bichon
learn somethig new here every day dobie. What is the mini pin related to?
8:55 am
jmbdobie2
not sure but I speak from the dobie side of things
8:56 am
bichon
might be a mix of an Italian Greyhound and dachshund
8:57 am
bichon
I think related to a Affenpinscher
9:02 am
jmbdobie2
"The Miniature Pinscher is not a scaled-down, version of anything, especially the much larger Doberman Pinscher, although both are likely descended from the German Standard Pinscher. It is a distinctly German breed often referred to as the Zwerg or Dwarf Pincher in historical documents. German Kennel Club documents also refer to the Miniature Pinscher as the "reh" Pinscher, but this term is only used for a dog of stag-red color, "reh" referring to a small red deer found in German forests years ago. The one fact remains that the Miniature Pinscher originated several centuries ago as an efficient barnyard ratter, with no relation to the Doberman or the Manchester Terrier. "
9:04 am
jmbdobie2
but I digress - just a dobie person at heart but the min pins are very nice dogs if you like the small guys and girls
9:04 am

Clair De La Lune is big with music teachers who want to teach basic note progression.

flosey

12:06 pm

12:07 pm
rururocks
*wipes coffee off screen*
12:08 pm
uusue2
And me trying to clue it using the French word for "rock" would be worse than useless, I suppose.
12:09 pm
wvteach
gtood afternoon all
12:10 pm
rururocks
The French have dozens of words for Rock
12:10 pm
MollyL
Well Sue, that is a "kinda". I used to know someone named Pi4rette and that means little stone.
12:10 pm
uusue2
true. It's also the french version of the name Peter.
12:10 pm
flosey
yes, depending on how it is used
12:11 pm
rururocks
wonder how you'd say picked a peck of pickled peppers in French?
12:11 pm
MollyL
Me: Is ___ the French word for ____?
Husband: Well, that's one of them.
Me: *Rolls eyes and walks out of room*
12:13 pm

Choisi un peck de piments. That's one way. There are probably ten others.

what I found most difficult when I was living in France was figuring out what my son was talking about - he was learning colloquial French from other children and a lot of it wasn't in the dictionary (although I did find the books Merde and Merde Encore to be very useful :-)
12:16 pm
uusue2
also when the school sent home lists of things for field trips, even the words borrowed from English were borrowed from British English, so I still needed a translator :-)
12:17 pm
flosey
and I'm still trying to find re6/21 (after the 6/24)and re5/14 after 7/32)
12:17 pm
flosey

12:17 pm

First you take the graham. You stick the chocolate on the graham. Then, you roast the mallow. When the mallow's flaming, you stick it on the chocolate. Then you cover it with the other end. Then, you stuff. Kind of messy, but good!

Molly, your profile reminds of a woman who lied about having a disease. Others made donations to help pay for her wedding. Her husband found out about it and divorced her. I think she had to pay the donors back.

Minveryork
Hate it when other people lie period, whether it's for attention or not.Some just lie and see nothing wrong with it. I don't get it. I am such a stickler about lieing
3:41 pm
MollyL
Pathological liars lie about everything. Most people lie because they are afraid of getting in trouble. Pathological liars lie because they get their jollies from it. Sick, sick people.
3:42 pm
Minveryork
Think pathological liars sometime do not even realize that they're lieing or they truly believe their own lies
3:42 pm
cosdem
was just about to ask for a clue for the at6 but decided to look over grid once more and found it!

Lizlin
Rhyming clue is good too
7:00 pm

7:05 pm
sprite
for Crossy:
"In search from A to Z they passed,
And "Marguerita" chose at last;
But thought it sound far more sweet
To call the baby "Marguerite."
When grandma saw the little pet,
She called her "darling Margaret."
Next uncle Jack and cousin Aggie
Sent cup and spoon to "little Maggie."
And grandpapa the right must beg
To call the lassie "bonnie Meg."
From "Marguerita" down to "Meg,"
And now she's simply "little Peg.""
7:06 pm

Gr 5/14ings everyone! I was a hi 6/21 and hi4/5d some monkeys at th 5/12 'O' clock today to help me get down to one word. I am almost finished so he4/4 is a story of hi5/12s.I am so gr5/14ful that I discovered Babbleand. I ag 5/14 with ot5/12 babblers that this is a gr 5/14 place to be.I tr5/10 myself to some babble time every day. Th 5/12 is no ot 5/12 place I'd rather be. I can wear any at 5/10 in Babbleland.Babblers make me gr 4/6 all the time with their silly chats.Also, Babblers are nice enough to put up with my gr5/16s about hubby.Babblers have big he 5/12s offering words of advice and sympathy. The only thing I re 6/24 about Babble is that I didn't discover it sooner. I can he 4/5 hubby getting ir 5/10 waiting for computer. I better give it to him so he does not fly in 4/4 a ra4/6 and start to th6/21en me & we have a he 4/5ed argument. I do hope you have found some more words with th 4/5 clues. I am going to get off my re 4/4 and go watch "Pi 6/21s of the Caribbean". I never saw it in the movie th 7/32. I will be back later on toni4/4 to help clue before I re 6/18 for the ni 4/4.

hi Dorens!
7:15 pm
Dorens
hi sprite. you up late tonight?
7:17 pm
sprite
yeah... can't sleep. Bit stressed and got a nasty cold.
7:17 pm
Bugsaw
Jumping in to the weird name thing, I was shocked to learn that Polly was short for Mary in the old days
7:17 pm
Dorens
sorry for that. i can never sleep with colds. in fact it is the way i can tell i'm getting one sometimes. no sleep
7:17 pm
sprite
really weird how some things go, isn't it Bugsaw. And hi :)
7:18 pm
Bugsaw
Hi sprite. Nice to see you again
7:18 pm

maggie is everywhere!
7:18 pm
Dorens
how can a 5 letter word be short for a 4 letter word?
7:18 pm
sprite
yes, exactly! How coolt to know I am not the only one!
7:18 pm
sprite
no, not short, it is more of a nickname.
7:19 pm
sprite
and vice versa, Bugsaw. I hope you are well?
7:20 pm
Bugsaw
I discovered this when I was doing geneology research. A woman had a daughter Mary and when she remarried, her new husband had a daughter Mary. All of a sudden the Mary I was following disappeared and Polly was there. I found an old letter explaining why that happened.
7:21 pm
crosshair
wild indeed,but handy when there are too many marys,margretes,or maggies around
7:21 pm

I am well sprite. I am SO enjoying being retired. I am just up from a nap *smileing*

Hello Bugsaw! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
7:22 pm
Dorens
i intend to join you in two years, bugs
7:22 pm

true, crossy. And that was often the case, I think, in the older days, when it was common to name children after parents, or grandparents etc
7:22 pm
crosshair
bugs ,is there a celtic symobol for the 3 stages of man?
7:22 pm
Bugsaw
Hello Minveryork. Thanks for the story

thnx Min for the story - very nice
7:23 pm
crosshair
all the kids the melbourne clan had in the 50,s60,s and early 70,s seemed to be from the bible
7:24 pm
crosshair
and middle names were often one parents or the other first name
7:24 pm
Bugsaw
I don't know crossy but there is a good joke about that. It is along the lines of for each decade of a woman's life she has the wonderful characteristics of various extravagant countries. In all stages, men are from countries that are ruled by nuts.....
7:24 pm
crosshair
once you trace our tree back before 1400,s it differs of course
7:24 pm
Dorens
i know a lot of italian-american related mary's: mary pat, mary diane, mary beth, and you can only tell them apart by the middle name
7:24 pm
gapeach
Oh, Min! Just looked at your beautiful Jack....and a handsome lad he is.
7:25 pm
crosshair
less vowels it seems before then
7:25 pm
Bugsaw
That is a Roman Catholic thing Dorens. All of Robert Kennedy's kids were named Mary Something but are just known as the Something
7:26 pm
sprite
Minver, your KCC is such a beauty!
7:26 pm
sprite
Here in the netherlands, even men can be named Maria as a middle (or 3rd, 4rth, 5th) name. If they are Roman Catholic, that is.
7:26 pm
Dorens
uhhuh, bugs. makes sense (most italians i know are catholic, except for the odd italian jew here and there)

My brother in law, who is a Swedish speaking Finn and not a Catholic, also has Maria as one of his names.
7:28 pm
Minveryork
Hello gapeach! How are you?Yes,Jack is so handsome
7:28 pm

aw poor boy :( But good that he is getting over it. Me neither, as to being a dog person. Always had cats. But Terra has stolen my he5, and not just mine. We all adore him. Funny little beauty!
7:28 pm
Bugsaw
Min I did not know dogs could get Lyme disease too. How did you diagnose it since you can't see the ring under the fur? you were very fortunate indeed
7:28 pm
sammysmom
hi minver and everyone.. thanks for the help........... hevae been rather upset today as i had to take hubby to hospital last night......... he was having a copd flareup and what seemed like an apparent heart attack
7:29 pm
sprite
I always found that kind of weird, a man with a totally female name. I think it is meant as asking for protection from Maria, isn't it?
7:29 pm
sprite
aw smom, that is awful. How are things now?
7:29 pm
crosshair
i shudder at the thought of doing our family tree again.my brother had one done 15 years ago by a u.s firm and it took 6 months and cost over 1000 u.s funds it was lost when his apt in nyc burned
7:29 pm
Dorens
sorry smom. hope things are better now?
7:30 pm

7:30 pm

7:30 pm
Bugsaw
welcome to the calming world of Babble sammysmom. You have had quite a scare
7:30 pm
sammysmom
thankfully it was not a heart attack, but a severe anxiety attack ... and it seems that a copd flare up is quite common every 6 or 8 monthes.... he is doing better today after large doses of steroids and may be able to come home in 2 or 3 days.......
7:31 pm

7:31 pm

7:35 pm
Minveryork
Goodbye sammysmom! I will see you tomorrow maybe.
7:36 pm

My cat just got over a bad attack of flesh-eating disease on his face. It was very fast moving but he kept hiding because of the pain and it took longer to get him to the vet.

actually sprite, i'm the school counselor, but was a guest in the advanced lit class cause their teacher was doing a bit about paris and i like it so much. I brought imported brie and blue cheeses, baguettes and imported confitures. and spoke french. told them when i was in fourth grade we had a teacher who came in and just sang songs with us and taught us colors, numbers, etc no grammar. nothing written. so they asked if i remembered the songs. and i sure did. sur la pont d'avignon, frere jacques et au claire de la lune
7:41 pm

Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante,
Had a bad cold, nevertheless
Is known to be the wisest woman in Europe, 45
With a wicked pack of cards. Here, said she,
Is your card, the drowned Phoenician Sailor,
(Those are pearls that were his eyes. Look!)
Here is Belladonna, the Lady of the Rocks,
The lady of situations. 50
Here is the man with three staves, and here the Wheel,
And here is the one-eyed merchant, and this card,
Which is blank, is something he carries on his back,
Which I am forbidden to see. I do not find
The Hanged Man. Fear death by water. 55
I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring.
Thank you. If you see dear Mrs. Equitone,
Tell her I bring the horoscope myself:
One must be so careful these days.

I just looked it up BR. It is beautiful now that I am older. I hated Tennyson when I was younger because he took so long to say what he wanted to say.
8:00 pm

it takes an older person to know that when something is worth saying, it is worth taking your time saying it ;)
8:01 pm

8:06 pm
Shallow One
theres an anecdote from my late teenage years. A classmate of italian descent was called andrea, a commen male first name in italy but not in Germany where andrea is just known as a girls name. So all his life he always had to correct teachers, etc. When he was about to turn 18, as all of us boys, he was invited to physical examination by the army. But as the letter was adressed to andreas dimatteo, he wrote back correcting his name. A few weeks later he received a letter of apologies, never hearing from them again, effectively skipping the draft ;)
8:07 pm
Bugsaw
great story shallow one. Probably the first time he ever liked his name
8:07 pm
Dorens
haha. that worked.
my name being Doren, which is uncommon, I frequently get letters addressed to Mr., as no one is sure just what I am
8:08 pm
smores
good for him - bet that made up for a lot of ribbing in school
8:08 pm
Bugsaw
that will happen more and more in the future Dorens with all the Taylors and Mackenzies etc
8:09 pm

Well, I really must go and hit the hay. My silly body needs the sleep it won't let me catch. *hugs* to you all and thanks for the help and the gr5 chat.
