Yeah, right. :P

1:05 am

SpellCheck

Neil - he was "sheepish" earlier tonight too. Is that out of character?

1:06 am

negativeneil

Not at all, SpellCheck. Here's the evidence...

Go here and start at 2:16 am:

http://www.playbabble.com/3497/10\n/19/2012

1:07 am

negativeneil

There's a fitting word in this grid too.

1:07 am

1:07 am

negativeneil

Probably not. :P

1:07 am

rururocks

1:07 am

rururocks

I try to gird my loins daily personally

1:08 am

SpellCheck

I'm not sure I want to know...

1:10 am

SpellCheck

I'm back, and I'll pretend I didn't see those last... So Ru, do you drive a Ram Truck (from Neils dialog)

1:10 am

negativeneil

That was ruru asking me that question.

1:10 am

rururocks

no.. i'm not that macho

1:10 am

negativeneil

Like so:

rururocks: you don't drive a Ram charger do you?

1:10 am

negativeneil

I'm not either.

1:11 am

Brrr. I'm going there. :P

1:18 am

Haha. I'm in Los Angeles.

1:19 am

SpellCheck

Yes to what rbud said... if I haven't said that already in our chats Jellen?

1:19 am

rbud

1:19 am

movieman

lickety isn't up for me

1:20 am

rbud

huh, that's weird, it is for me.

1:20 am

movieman

i still have wednesday's clues

1:20 am

Jellen

Oh, thanks! And yes, I took the photo today.

1:20 am

flosey

does anyone have a clue for an8 please

1:20 am

negativeneil

Wow. I just found a simple, obvious 4-letter word that somehow I had totally missed. My mind's gone.

1:20 am

SpellCheck

When I used to have trouble, it would work if I typed in the url itself. (No idea why, and I don't have that issue any longer) http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html

1:21 am

rbud

an8 clue by spell at 1:13

1:21 am

negativeneil

Oh I see, Jellen. :) That's more recent than mine... which was taken in Big Sur on my birthday.
[Saturday, December 29.]

1:22 am

SpellCheck

Neil - I have 5 words left and they are 4 4s and 1 5... so you've got company there!

1:22 am

movieman

1:22 am

SpellCheck

sorry... did you try clearing your cache, etc.

1:23 am

movieman

1:23 am

flosey

tanks rbud, got it

1:23 am

negativeneil

Good to know, SpellCheck.

1:23 am

flosey

how about he7/48, does anyone have a clue?

1:23 am

Jellen

I don't think clues have been posted.

1:23 am

negativeneil

But I should be done long by now. Been chatting and talking on the phone though. :P

1:23 am

flosey

hi Neil

1:23 am

negativeneil

Hi flosey.

1:24 am

flosey

Lickety's clues are up Jellen

1:24 am

movieman

and it worked

1:24 am

negativeneil

Yes they have Jellen.

1:24 am

SpellCheck

Neil - I'm just slow. Hubby is crabbing about going to bed already, so...

1:24 am

Jellen

Ohh, my bad!

1:24 am

SpellCheck

Glad to hear it MM

1:27 am

Jellen

Wow, I passed halfway and didn't notice.

1:27 am

negativeneil

Whew... finally killed it.

1:27 am

Jellen

Well done, Neil!

1:27 am

negativeneil

Yeah SpellCheck, my better half wants me to do the same... considering we have work in the morning. Alarm goes off way too early. Dammit.

1:29 am

SpellCheck

I hate to go to bed with only 5 left. And I hate to list with only 5 left. Considering that I've only gotten 8 words in the last 45 min, perhaps I'll have to cave.

1:29 am

Jellen

I think I'm going to leave the rest for tomorrow. My new glasses have given me a headache.

1:29 am

negativeneil

And thanks, Jellen.

1:29 am

negativeneil

Ugh. I guess they're hard to adjust to at first?

1:29 am

SpellCheck

Oooh Jellen, I hate that. Hope you adjust soon.

1:30 am

Jellen

Thanks, SpellCheck...

1:31 am

Jellen

Yes, Neil...my distance vision remained the same, but I needed an adjustment for close-up work.

1:31 am

negativeneil

Oh, I see.

1:31 am

SpellCheck

haha

1:32 am

negativeneil

See? Well I don't see... "understand" maybe? :P

1:32 am

SpellCheck

No, you see... Jellen doesn't (and neither do I [eye])

1:32 am

Jellen

:)

1:33 am

negativeneil

Pffft. :P

1:33 am

negativeneil

Are you taking over for ru in his absence?

1:34 am

SpellCheck

No -- hubby is a huge punster. Unfortunately, after 12 years of marriage, I seem to have acquired that sense of humor.

1:34 am

negativeneil

So is my dad... and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree I guess either. :P

1:34 am

flosey

2 to go and I can't get them

1:34 am

negativeneil

Which ones flosey?

1:34 am

SpellCheck

It's kind of like an infection, eh?

1:35 am

flosey

re6

1:35 am

negativeneil

Haha, maybe. It's definitely contagious.

1:35 am

SpellCheck

re 6 - to cook again.

1:36 am

negativeneil

Oh. I had typed the entire clue... for nothing.

1:36 am

negativeneil

The deleted it.

1:36 am

SpellCheck

sorry Neil.

1:36 am

flosey

thanks Neil and SC

1:36 am

negativeneil

It's ok. I should know someone else will get it. ;)

1:37 am

flosey

and he7/48

1:37 am

SpellCheck

I promise... you can field the next one.

1:37 am

negativeneil

"then" even. Geez, I can't even type anyway!

1:37 am

negativeneil

Ha, no. It's ok really. ;)

1:37 am

negativeneil

Take it away...

1:38 am

SpellCheck

ok... he 7/48 - think homonym for metric unit

1:38 am

negativeneil

I've done enough typing for one evening, with the reports I had to submit on the OMGPOP game website. Which shouldn't have been necessary if some people knew how to treat others.

1:38 am

negativeneil

Scroll to the bottom of this page and see the last post... or last one from me anyway. Don't think any replies have been posted to it yet:

1:39 am

SpellCheck

sounds lovely. See, that is why I usually lurk.

1:39 am

Jellen

Oh, I was thinking about heading there, Neil

1:39 am

negativeneil

Yep. Can't say I blame you there.

1:39 am

negativeneil

Well read that post Jellen.

1:39 am

negativeneil

On the complaint forum.

[last one at the bottom of that page]

1:42 am

SpellCheck

Wow. That sounds awful. I assume star status means that you have a high ranking? Why do people care so much about winning.

1:42 am

Jellen

Wow.

1:43 am

flosey

O give up, maybe I'll find it in the morning

1:44 am

SpellCheck

My clue to obscure, I can try again...

1:44 am

negativeneil

Well all "Star" is really? It allows you to start games instantly instead of waiting for the countdown, block "Lameguests" [people without registered accounts who play as guests] and you get 50% more XP [experience points] for each match you play. That's it... not really exciting.

1:45 am

SpellCheck

He + high point tile + ta4/4

yes, Spell, I've been trying to rhyme with metric units since you said that, so far no luck, lol

1:45 am

negativeneil

But some children on there are so envious of that shiny little "Star" tag that they attack those who have it. Incredible huh?

1:45 am

rbud

oh! now I get it - ty, Spell

1:45 am

negativeneil

Like it really means anything? Haha.

1:46 am

SpellCheck

Kind of like the trolls who play here occasionally. I just don't understand the joy in that, even when I try to put myself back in my 15 year old mind.

1:46 am

SpellCheck

granted that was a while ago...

1:46 am

negativeneil

Yes.. more or less.

1:46 am

SpellCheck

Glad to help RB

1:46 am

rbud

it's like the section of an acre

1:46 am

negativeneil

And I joke that I'm a "troll"... but I only troll those who ask for and desperately deserve it. ;)

1:47 am

negativeneil

On Twitter mainly.

1:47 am

negativeneil

And never, ever without good cause.

1:48 am

SpellCheck

Ok, so I don't have to hide then?

1:48 am

negativeneil

Nah. I'd say you're pretty safe. ;)

1:49 am

negativeneil

Like I say in here:

1:49 am

1:49 am

SpellCheck

Well... like I said, I tend to lurk. Someone who still plays here bit my head off very early on in my Babbling career. It took me a long time to come out of my "lurk"

1:50 am

SpellCheck

plus hubby likes to go to bed earlier, so that makes chatting a challenge if I'm trying to finish the grid

1:50 am

negativeneil

Ahh. Wonder if that's an experience we share by any chance? I'm thinking maybe.

1:51 am

negativeneil

This name at y-a-h-o-o if you want to email.

1:52 am

negativeneil

And yeah, I guess that would do it. Which time zone are you in?

1:52 am

SpellCheck

In LA too.

1:52 am

negativeneil

Oh wow. :)

1:53 am

negativeneil

W. Hollywood here... near the intersection of Sunset Blvd. and N.Orange Dr.

1:53 am

rbud

oh, I've have my head bitten off in many a forum and chat, I don't let it bother me. often those folks later turn out to be more fun than the rest, too

1:53 am

negativeneil

And too darn closed to that In-N-Out. :P

1:54 am

SpellCheck

Pasadena here. Close to Colorado. Vegan - so that doesn't do it for me.

1:54 am

negativeneil

Sure. I've had a few do it in here but all I had to do was consider the source. Which needless to say was pretty obvious... y'know?

1:55 am

negativeneil

Oh ok.

1:55 am

negativeneil

Their onion rings are what get me. Too tasty.

1:55 am

negativeneil

And... fattening.

1:55 am

Lizlin

Hi all :)

1:55 am

negativeneil

Hey Lizlin. :)

1:56 am

Lizlin

Hey Neil - all's good I hope.

1:56 am

negativeneil

Pretty much, yep. :)

1:56 am

negativeneil

Same for you I hope?

1:56 am

Lizlin

Hot and humid late afternoon!

1:56 am

rbud

mmmm, onion rings.... *drool* :p~~~~

1:57 am

negativeneil

Oh man. You've gotta try theirs rbud!

1:57 am

Lizlin

I'm with rbud - drool!

1:58 am

SpellCheck

RBud - perhaps. But I'm just here to play a game. Most everyone seems reasonable. I just don't like to be bitc**d at. Of course, from her perspective, obviously I deserved it. (Not my perspective, however.)

1:58 am

negativeneil

As much as I'm trying not to eat much fried stuff.

1:58 am

SpellCheck

I never understood onion rings. You bite into them and get the entire onion, and then just have a fried shell left.

1:59 am

SpellCheck

I'd much rather have sweet potato fries

1:59 am

Lizlin

There are certain foods, which just can't be avoided!!!!

1:59 am

negativeneil

No kidding SpellCheck. Who does? I'm betting those who dish it out don't like it either.

1:59 am

negativeneil

I guess you have to really love onions to appreciate them... which I do. Onions and garlic... YUM.

2:00 am

negativeneil

[breath weapons]

2:00 am

Lizlin

Oh dear! People losing their sense of humour again???

2:00 am

negativeneil

Huh Lizlin?

2:00 am

SpellCheck

I do love onions. Nothing smells better than onions sauteeing in a bit of olive oil.

2:00 am

rbud

I agree, Spell, there are some very touchy and seemingly overly critical persons around here, but I guess that's life. At least they're not youngsters just mouthing off for the fun of it, like on so many site

2:00 am

SpellCheck

No liz, this was a hundred years ago. I'm explaining my lurking history

2:00 am

rbud

*sites

2:01 am

Lizlin

haven't read back over the chog yet!

2:01 am

negativeneil

Yeah. I think those I reported on OMGPOP were exactly that, rbud. But still. Shouldn't get away with it.

2:01 am

Lizlin

Ah OK - I understand! I could see that something had upset you at some point!

2:01 am

negativeneil

I'm sure you're not alone SpellCheck. I'm feeling pretty sure I even know who it was... just a hunch.

2:02 am

negativeneil

Since it happened to me when I was new.

2:02 am

rbud

I've gone into full lurk mode myself before, refusing to chat until some people lost interest in Babble and went completely away - sometimes it takes months, lol

2:02 am

SpellCheck

Not going there Neil. ;-) I don't want to narc on anyone.

2:02 am

negativeneil

Hey. Not asking you to! Just saying. ;)

2:03 am

negativeneil

I'm sure you're in good company... not just mine.

2:03 am

Lizlin

I've said it before but it really irritates me how easily some people take offence at what others say - if it offends you - ignore it! Don't lay into someone for humour or expressing a view!

2:03 am

rbud

but not because of how they treated me, really, more because of how they treated many others.

2:03 am

negativeneil

And remember... they're in the minority.

2:03 am

SpellCheck

I'm sure I am. I have commented to DH that this person is often crabby to others.

2:04 am

negativeneil

Yeah, that figures.

2:04 am

Lizlin

There are lots of good people I've met here since I joined at the end of August!

2:04 am

negativeneil

I can't see how you could possibly offend anyone or prompt them to attack you.

2:04 am

negativeneil

You're friendly and pleasant.

2:05 am

Lizlin

I guess some people are just touchy and possibly lacking in self esteem and so just lash out!

2:05 am

SpellCheck

Yes, they are the minority. I often wish for an "ignore" button in message boards. We are all different, and some people just can't get along. Life would be easier if you could avoid seeing some commentary.

2:06 am

negativeneil

Maybe, Lizlin. Can't understand it.
Guess I'm glad about that too!

2:06 am

negativeneil

Oh man. You said it! I sooo wish this site had that feature. Mine would have been put to good use!

2:07 am

SpellCheck

Ahh, but I can. Catch me on a bad day! ;-) Seriously though, why bother crabbing at people in a gaming chat room?

2:07 am

Lizlin

When I was teaching, I learnt to ignore some of the views that I so disagreed with, that were expressed in teh staff room! Wasn't worth the hassle - they'd never change their minds.

2:09 am

Lizlin

Stuff to do now - BBL - sleep well - til next time!

2:10 am

SpellCheck

night liz

2:10 am

rbud

bye Liz, later! :)

2:10 am

negativeneil

I don't know SpellCheck. Makes no sense.

2:11 am

negativeneil

Yeah Lizlin... sometimes that's all you can do.

2:11 am

SpellCheck

finally FW. I am off to bed. Nice chatting all.

2:11 am

negativeneil

Oh. Oops! She's gone.

2:11 am

rbud

why can't I find more than one D word, hmmmm... :(

2:11 am

negativeneil

And so am I... good night! :)

2:12 am

rbud

yay, Spell!!! and g'nite

2:12 am

6:01 am

smores

6:09 am

Lizlin

6:10 am

6:12 am

Lizlin

Do you want a clue for the other one I have?

6:13 am

smores

is it the "land measure" ? I'm not getting it

6:14 am

Lizlin

Yes but the 3rd letter is not the consonant I'd've expected

6:14 am

Lizlin

he + consonant + ta4

6:15 am

MollyL

6:16 am

periwinkle

hi all, I just heard on good morning america that there is problem with Java and hacking and they suggest that we disable Java on our computers. I do not know how to do that.

6:16 am

periwinkle

when I open Java I do not see a button to click to disable it

6:17 am

periwinkle

my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray :)

6:18 am

Lizlin

My hubby says that if you disable java so many things don't work and you have to then enable java / java script to get them to work. However he recommends disabling it. What browser are you using?

6:18 am

smores

Good Morning peri

6:19 am

smores

wow...everything uses java

6:20 am

smores

I use firefox and chrome both

6:21 am

smores

chrome asks me for permision to open java sometimes, should I just click "deny" or do I have to disable?

6:21 am

Lizlin

Hubby says if it's asking you to open, then it's already disabled and you should do nothing.

6:22 am

MollyL

Doesn't Babble use Java? If you left click and then hit
Page Properties, Java comes up.

6:22 am

smores

okay, firefox must be enabled because it does ask, do I disable it through add-ons?

6:23 am

MollyL

Sorry, Page Info

6:23 am

periwinkle

internet explorer

6:24 am

smores

I think it does Molly, I use Babble Expert now so not sure

6:25 am

Lizlin

Hubby says in firefox, it's in preferences / content - then you should see enable java script - check it is not ticked

6:25 am

smores

thank Liz

6:26 am

Lizlin

I just disabled java script and then couldn't enter chat here! So I've re-enabled it!!!

6:26 am

Lizlin

That's why lots of space under 6.25 entry - it wouldn't enter!!

6:26 am

MollyL

I thought so.

6:27 am

Lizlin

Sorry Peri - can't help with internet explorer! Not sure how it works.

6:30 am

MollyL

I highly recommend using Firefox or Chrome. Internet Explorer is a substandard browser for SO many reasons.

6:34 am

smores

okay, java is disabled

6:35 am

smores

I think :)

6:35 am

MollyL

Not sure how you're seeing chat if Java is disabled.

6:35 am

smores

my chat is still working fine so not sure ?

6:36 am

smores

I'm on Babble Expert downloaded to desktop, so not sure how that works

6:38 am

re:disabling java.i would not do it because so many things require it to run

6:48 am

have a good anti-virus and ad-aware or spybot program instead

We are all hanging in. Wish we had some snow though. Would like to do some sledding and snow hikes.

7:03 am

car.eeyore

How is everything on your side of the map?

7:04 am

Scrabbler

We started a thaw yesterday and it won't get cold until Monday. So I will snowshoe until the ski trails are in good shape again.

7:04 am

We will be near 60 F on Sunday.

7:06 am

TY! Would have missed it! Did you find the rear-end and plural?

7:08 am

Scrabbler

Aha, that word IS there. I thought it was a phantom. TY.

7:08 am

Scrabbler

OK, I must get going now. Enjoy the day!

7:08 am

car.eeyore

For a day. I have written it directly on the sling now with a Sharpie.

i went to put a better picture of my new spice rack up

8:57 am

hego

<----just missed the weeme parade.

8:58 am

jmcnrick

i don't understand how to get the nice backgrounds on the weemes . . . or how to get things in my right hand. . . do you have to pay to do that?

8:59 am

hego

I'm not sure JE. I just poked around until I found backgrounds.

8:59 am

hego

The stuff you hold is under accessories.

8:59 am

jmcnrick

oh well maybe i will spend some more time on it this weekend. . . i am trying to be diciplined about work

8:59 am

hego

I did pay a the minimum fee.

9:00 am

jmcnrick

yes but they all end up in my left hand. . .

9:00 am

hego

hmmm.... funny.

9:00 am

jmcnrick

i am too cheap. . . there is little in this life worth paying a fee for. . .babble being a huge exception and someone else gave me that as a gift. . .

9:01 am

hego

No it's always in the left, come to think of it.

9:02 am

jmcnrick

car's coffee is in her right hand so i have hope

9:02 am

hego

she uses a different site than the one I use.

9:03 am

jmcnrick

and what if you want to hold two things? which site does she use? there is more than one!!

9:03 am

hego

there are 2 that I know of.

9:04 am

hego

One looked too hard, so I used the other.

9:04 am

jmcnrick

I only found one but may look for the other. well that is enough of that or molls will be bringing in the priests to exorcize the chog from demons!

9:04 am

hego

yes, she will. lol

9:05 am

hego

BR had a weemee a few days ago.

9:05 am

hego

Very handsome too.

9:05 am

jmcnrick

did car's mom fall or is ill? i missed that news but saw her talking about taking care of her mom

9:05 am

jmcnrick

i heard i am sorry i missed his weemee

9:05 am

hego

She broke her collarbone.

9:06 am

jmcnrick

oh de** poor thing. . . that can be hard depending on where the break is

9:06 am

hego

tough mending those sometimes.

9:07 am

jmcnrick

one of the trainers at the gym broke his collarbone and was up an running in a few weeks. . . the joy of being young!

9:07 am

hego

ah! youth

9:09 am

jmcnrick

he started doing pull-ups and one of the other older trainers stopped him. . .the young trainer said . . .it didn't hurt. . .the older trainer said . . .you need to let it completely heal . . you don't want it to weaken and then snap and it it too late. .

9:09 am

jmcnrick

*it is

9:09 am

hego

uh oh

9:10 am

jmcnrick

one of the things you do not understand when you are young is that messing up your body comes back to haunt you even if you heal at the time. . .

9:11 am

hego

that is so true.

9:12 am

jmcnrick

my hip is giving me fits right now for something that happened probably 30 years ago

9:38 am

Jen34

My computer is SLLOOOOOWWWW today.

9:39 am

Jen34

fr 7: past tense of fr 5

9:39 am

mbh

can anyone help with he 7/48

9:39 am

mkg

what a waste of the c this is.

9:39 am

Jivingjenny0

fr7/60 is pasted tense of fr5/24

9:39 am

mael

fr7 is what one did when she saw something shocking

9:39 am

Jen34

9:39 am

mkg

ty got the fr 7. super clue againk

9:39 am

mkg

again.

9:39 am

Jivingjenny0

he7 is usually spelled with a c and is a measurement

9:40 am

Jen34

he 7: past tense of he 6 -- posterior

9:41 am

Jen34

at least, that's how I've used that word, LOL

9:41 am

mkg

wow confused by these clues. i can only think of hectacre and that is not it and now the past tense of posterior. assed is all that comes to mind.

9:41 am

mbh

thanks for the clues...still trying

9:42 am

uusue2

that is almost it, mkg, swap the first c for a k and get rid of the second c and you're there :-)

9:42 am

Jen34

lol, mkg -- again, that may just be from my own personal dictionary -- i'll think of something better

9:42 am

mkg

still thinking here too............

9:42 am

mbh

thank you!

9:43 am

Jen34

oh, there are two he 7's

9:43 am

mkg

jen can you clue more detailed?

9:44 am

Jen34

he + the opposite of "out" + 2 vowels -- then plural. Sorry, not the best clue.

9:44 am

mkg

jen there is no e near the t.

9:45 am

mkg

actually great clue. got the he from your clue.

9:45 am

uusue2

any clues for the bottom o?

9:45 am

mkg

but what about other?????????? that wasnt the hectacre clue for sure.

9:45 am

mkg

that was the posterior clue. and good one.

9:46 am

Jen34

yay! glad you got it -- and that I'm not the only one who uses that "slang" :o)

9:46 am

uusue2

see what I said at 9:42, mkg, that was about the other he7 (which you almost have)

9:46 am

mkg

jen so what is the other one? the one like the measurement......?

9:47 am

mkg

uusue i tried it but he and the a t is what is confusing me. there is no t near the e;s.

9:47 am

Jen34

use the high scoring tile

9:48 am

mkg

no t?????????

9:48 am

uusue2

replace the first c in your word with the k, mkg, and leave out the second c

9:48 am

uusue2

keep the t

9:49 am

mkg

confused. he and then high scoring tile?????? and then what? there is no e near the t. so hetaker is not in grid.

9:49 am

Jen34

put the high scorer before the t

9:49 am

mkg

oh too confusing...........

9:50 am

gemini_J13

the "t" comes later

9:50 am

mkg

how do i make it past tense then?

9:50 am

uusue2

he + high scoring tile + cross letter + I am, you ***

9:50 am

uusue2

no past tense

9:50 am

12:06 pm

Soodle

How are you guys? Molls? Rubes? Bich?

Soodle

I have the house and the evening to myself. Bliss. :-)

12:13 pm

rubyfoo

12:14 pm

rubyfoo

12:16 pm

Soodle

Ruby, I never get the long ones unaided. But this one hopped out at me. No idea about the A tho'

12:17 pm

rubyfoo

that was clued earlier, but I didn't get it then. had to be spoonfed

12:18 pm

MollyL

Ruby, trust me, you are NOT the one who needs to be spoon fed here. Not in the least.

12:18 pm

rubyfoo

I was once lost in a maze, molly, and it was definitely scary

12:19 pm

12:23 pm

Soodle

Thanks Ruby.

12:23 pm

MollyL

Yay for Da Soodle!

12:23 pm

rubyfoo

that is too funny; what do you think his online name will be?

12:24 pm

MollyL

It will be funny to watch Soodle be all prim and proper when her Da is in chat. Can't wait. *Having evil thoughts*

12:24 pm

Soodle

Ooh. Don't tempt me to make one up for him...... The possibilities are endless.....(wicked grin).....

12:25 pm

rubyfoo

we'll have to be very careful.....

12:25 pm

rubyfoo

soodle is always prim and proper!

12:26 pm

Soodle

Molls! Bless him, he has known me for the past #%#%# number of years! He knows me well.

12:26 pm

MollyL

Not to worry Soodle. 98% of the time, this chat is suitable for The Tea Time For Old Ladies Club.

12:27 pm

rubyfoo

<-- is an old lady

12:27 pm

Soodle

Oh no! Don't say that. My Dad will be bitterly disappointed.

12:28 pm

rubyfoo

tell him that our chats are scintillating....to get him interested

12:28 pm

MollyL

Ruby, at heart you are years younger than most of the people who play here.

12:28 pm

rubyfoo

you are so sweet, molly!!

12:28 pm

Soodle

Me & him share the same sense of humour! (Is that a good or a bad thing, I wonder).

12:29 pm

rubyfoo

humor and gambling run in the genes I think

12:29 pm

MollyL

It is a VERY good thing. Thank God for people with a sense of humor.

12:29 pm

rubyfoo

I come from a long line of funny gamblers

12:29 pm

Soodle

:-)

12:30 pm

Soodle

Do you play the Euromillions lottery Rubes?

12:30 pm

rubyfoo

no, I stopped gambling when I got married this time

12:31 pm

rubyfoo

but between marriages, I used to bet on the ponies and go to a lot of races PLUS the lottery and jai alai

12:31 pm

MollyL

Soodle, wherever you have that cake image...right click it, then click "Rotate clockwise", get it right side up and then save it. Then you can upload it the right way.

12:32 pm

Soodle

Oh I play every week. And Molls plays the US Lottery. Between the two of us, a big win is imminent.

12:32 pm

rubyfoo

I used to play the Florida lottery every week and came out ahead for the first two years then NOT

12:33 pm

rubyfoo

but it's hard to stop when you always play the same numbers because you figure that the one time you don't play, your nos. will come in

12:34 pm

Soodle

Exactly!! Has my icon changed?

12:34 pm

rubyfoo

I used to play backgammon and scrabble for money, too

12:36 pm

Soodle

Shamefaced...... I don't know how to right click on my iPad....... My 'Learner' sign is still up

12:36 pm

rubyfoo

I would laugh, but then I'd be in the PB

12:39 pm

MollyL

There should be two buttons on the Ipad, along with the scroller area. Yes? No? Like on a laptop.

12:39 pm

Soodle

Tee Hee! I forgot about the fence

12:40 pm

rubyfoo

14 left and I give up

12:40 pm

rubyfoo

good night {{soodle}} and {{molly}}

MollyL

Jeeze, WHY do you people use Apple products? Try double tapping the screen.

12:41 pm

MollyL

Double tap and hold.

12:41 pm

Soodle

((((((Rubes))))))) nite nite. X

12:43 pm

Soodle

Has the pic changed Moll?

12:45 pm

MollyL

Yes, but now it's just a close up of the guy on the front of the cake. The picture has to be 350x350 or smaller.

12:46 pm

LeslieAnn

i thought oaked was a word. like an oaked chardonnay

12:46 pm

MollyL

And your profile picture information still says the picture is a tribute to Aurthur Guiness, which I find hysterical. : P

12:47 pm

MollyL

No clue LA, but it wouldn't be the first real word that Enable refuses to recognize.

12:48 pm

LeslieAnn

oh well

12:49 pm

Soodle

Meh Molly! Now! Do I change my pic or do I change the text or do I open that bottle of Chardonnay in the fridge?

12:50 pm

LeslieAnn

d) all of the above

12:53 pm

Nef

Good Afternoon, Everyone. How are you all on this cloudy, damp day?

12:53 pm

MollyL

Chardonnay! Chardonnay!

12:54 pm

Soodle

I forgot it was there, till I saw your reference to Chardonay earlier, LA! I'll blame you!

12:54 pm

Nef

Thanks Nef. I can't see how!

1:01 pm

MollyL

*Warns the neighbors that Soodle has the house to herself and a bottle of Chardonnay*

1:01 pm

Soodle

I can confirm that there are 42 words. I remain unconvinced that there's 83........

1:02 pm

Nef

True, Soodle. I'm doubting even 40 words myself!

1:03 pm

Soodle

Bottle of Chardonnay. Singular. Any neighbours are welcome. Provided they bring their own! I have a lovely turf fire blazing....

1:05 pm

MollyL

Party at Soodle's! Party at Soodle's! Bring yer own hooch.

Riverdance

MollyL

Apparently not for the Irish either.

1:16 pm

Riverdance

Soodle

1:18 pm

Soodle

1:19 pm

MollyL

Butts, backsides, behinds, derrieres, cabooses...

1:20 pm

MollyL

Buttocks, arses...

1:21 pm

Soodle

Yay. Thanks Molly. Yet another word that is not used this side of the pond.

1:22 pm

MollyL

Don't make me go all Shirley MacLaine on you.

1:22 pm

Soodle

If my Dad was on now, he'd say 'Arse' is the generic word!

1:23 pm

Soodle

I'll see your Shirley , and raise you a Maggie Smith.......

1:24 pm

MollyL

Dowager poker, only the two of us. : D

1:24 pm

Soodle

What IS a weekend?

1:25 pm

Soodle

Molly, have you seen The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel?

1:25 pm

Nef

all depends on when your week starts, Soodle...

1:25 pm

MollyL

No, but it's on my "to see" list. I've heard it's wonderful.

1:26 pm

MollyL

Nef, "what is a weekend?" is a question asked by the rich and privileged Dowager Countess on Downton Abbey.

1:27 pm

MollyL

The high falutin' are always "off" so they have no concept of "weekend".

1:27 pm

Soodle

It's just one of those movies that when it's over, you are left with a smile on your face. Highly recommended! And Maggie Smith is about as far away in character from the dowager as you could imagine.

1:27 pm

hurshy

I have a rice steamer but the life of me I cant remember the brand but I do love it

1:55 pm

The brand wit the elephant on them are lovely, if expensive -- you can find them at Asian markets.

1:55 pm

MollyL

I have a Black & Decker that doubles as a vegetable steamer and a rice cooker.

1:56 pm

westford

thanks river and seain..and molly

1:57 pm

westford

I'm so out of touch..didn't realize B&D made cooking stuff

1:58 pm

MollyL

There is no way I would spend 200 dollars on a rice cooker.

1:58 pm

westford

the old roomy had one and since she's moved she misses it

1:59 pm

westford

I cook my rice on the stove

2:03 pm

westford

2:03 pm

MollyL

I had to get one for my Mom when she got older and forgetful about things in the kitchen.

I am mostly well, Min .. How are you?

10:31 pm

Minveryork

Mostly well??? I am mostly well too.Grateful I did not break down on my way home from work. Car is in shop right now

10:35 pm

torgone

Glad you made it home but that's a bummer to have to get car fixed. I have to get mine fixed soon too - Didn't pass smog test ..

10:36 pm

Minveryork

I just over a thousand to get the clutch fixed. I really need to get a new car, but I can't sell my car if it does not work.

10:38 pm

torgone

A thou for a clutch seems like a lot, but then everything car related seems like a lot to me these days ..

10:41 pm

Minveryork

Yep,$1000,00 for clutch PLUS I had to pay 252.00 to get it towed because the car broke down on the parkway.

10:41 pm

torgone

Youch!

10:44 pm

Minveryork

So, joined AAA today in anticipation of another breakdown

10:44 pm

Minveryork

Of course I did not break down, but if I hadn't joined AAA, I would have broken down. Isn't that how it always works?

10:47 pm

torgone

Yes, exactly

10:48 pm

Minveryork

Anyway, going to car dealers tomorrow to start shopping.

10:51 pm

torgone

Fun

11:01 pm

torgone

I've never had a new car .. Probably never will ..

11:02 pm

Minveryork

I am also looking into getting a certified used car torgone.

11:06 pm

torgone

There should be some good values out there - lease returns or whatever - You're smart. I'm sure you'll choose well ..

11:07 pm

Minveryork

I am done! I have fireworks! ta6/21 word was my last one.

11:08 pm

Minveryork

I had been saving that last word since 10:52 this morning.

11:08 pm

Minveryork

Does anybody else need any clues before I sign out of here

11:11 pm

torgone

"Not I" said the the little red robot ..

11:25 pm

Minveryork
