Jivingjenny0

Funny story - my granddaughter aged 6 was told by her mum to put slippers on, Megan said "but you haven't got any on" Mum replied "I don't like wearing them" Megan's reply was "That is very hypocritical of you mummy" If she is like this at 6 what is she going to be like at 16

excellent reasoning powers!

5:45 am

here I always say to that kind of reasoning: quod licet iovi non licet bovi... or "what Jupiter is allowed, is not allowed to a cow"

5:45 am

rubyfoo

that's probably better in Dutch, sprite, hahah

5:46 am

sprite

nah, best in latin, lol.

5:46 am

rubyfoo

<-- doesn't know Latin :(

5:47 am

sprite

basically it means a god can get away with more things than a cow.

5:48 am

zoozzoom

Or you will do as you are told..lol

5:48 am

sprite

lol... yeah, or "I am an adult, if I wanna do something stupid, I can. You still need permission to do something stupid."

rubyfoo

Lizlin

No - I hadn't seen that! Details please - very happy for you.

6:04 am

zoozzoom

yw

6:05 am

Lizlin

I kept being disappointed that portent wouldn't work - lol!

6:06 am

rubyfoo

Rafaella (Raffie), 7 wks old, born in Barcelona and could be here as soon as two wks if owner doesn't think it's too cold

6:06 am

zoozzoom

Ok off to do chores. :-(

6:06 am

rubyfoo

6:06 am

rubyfoo

I've finally stopped crying but I'll still miss Ruby forever

6:07 am

Lizlin

That's fantastic - Raffie and Rufie - could be confusing! Have you seen photos?

6:07 am

zoozzoom

Really pleased for you, Ruby, hope it all works out for you..bye all..*poof

6:07 am

Lizlin

You'll always remember Ruby. Our dog died over 30 years ago - I often think of him!

6:07 am

Lizlin

Have a good day zooz:)

6:07 am

rubyfoo

I saw one tiny photo and she looks just likfe my first chow, Rosie. Very black face, strong straight legs and very fluffy

6:08 am

rubyfoo

my husband still cries over the dog his mother gave away when he was 12!

6:08 am

Lizlin

Soooo cute - bet you can't wait.

6:08 am

Lizlin

We get so attached to our pets!

6:09 am

rubyfoo

and the owner says her tail never stops wagging (the pup, not the owner)

6:09 am

Lizlin

A python killed one of the beautiful birds in our garden on Saturday - that really upset me! It wasn't on the same level of our house and a python isn't venomous but I hate snakes. Felt so sorry for the poor corella.

6:10 am

Lizlin

She'll love her new home.

6:10 am

rubyfoo

did you see it happen?

6:10 am

rubyfoo

did you see it happen?

6:10 am

rubyfoo

<-- loves snakes, just not venomous ones. Photos I've seen of pythons are beautiful

6:11 am

rubyfoo

How big was the python?

6:11 am

Lizlin

No - but the other birds were amazing. The screeching alerted me! I looked outside and about 30 birds were in the trees - all looking in the same direction - beaks stretched out. It was obvious what had happened. Hubby turned hose onto the python - they don't like that! Only about 1 metre, so not huge.

6:11 am

rubyfoo

I don't know how I'd feel about a big snake in my garden and husband would probably move out!

6:11 am

Lizlin

it was a carpet python - very beautiful.

6:11 am

Lizlin

Still don't like them though.

6:12 am

rubyfoo

I'll google it

6:12 am

lynxxx

Hi Liz

6:12 am

Lizlin

Our back area is on 2 levels - this was on the lower level away from teh house.

6:12 am

Lizlin

Hi Lyn :)

6:12 am

rubyfoo

Have you read about the invasion of Burmese pythons in the Everglades. They are so big that they eat alligators!

6:13 am

Lizlin

No! That's hard to imagine!

6:13 am

rubyfoo

I guess people get them as pets and then when they get too big, release them in the swamp where they thrive and eat everything in sight

6:14 am

Lizlin

It was a sad week for animals last week. At the local wildlife sanctuary, they had to put down the crocodile there - for a few days Holy was the largest croc in captivity. He was 5 m long!

6:14 am

rubyfoo

5 meters? OMG

6:15 am

Lizlin

People do that with crocs in the canals / rivers here - get baby crocs and then release them, when they're too big.

6:15 am

Lizlin

He was huge!

6:15 am

rubyfoo

your wildlife is much wilder than I've ever known

6:16 am

lynxxx

and he was called Holy because people said "Holy Moly" when they saw him?

6:16 am

rubyfoo

that was the urban myth in NY when I was growing up, that people would flush their baby alligators, bought as souvenirs in Florida, and flush them down the toilet. They were said to be lurking in the sewers and subways

6:16 am

Lizlin

In 4 years here I've only seen 3 snakes and 2 of those were non-venomous! Haven't seen any sharks or dangerous jellyfish or dangerous spiders!

6:16 am

Lizlin

Absolutely right Lyn - or so the story goes!

6:17 am

Lizlin

Actually I think it was Holy sh**!

6:17 am

lynxxx

lol

6:17 am

rubyfoo

this place is very tame; locals have eaten most of the wildlife so no deer, squirrels or rabbits. The only snakes are vipers (V!) and coulouvres (n-V) and I've never seen either

6:17 am

rubyfoo

hahah liz

6:17 am

Lizlin

He was only about 40 - young for a croc but was full of cancer - apparently this is very unusual.

6:18 am

rubyfoo

that is sad, liz, people probably fed him bad foods

6:18 am

rubyfoo

(not zoo people, but visitors)

6:19 am

lynxxx

I suppose crocs have their usefulness in the animal world but you have to wonder what exactly that is

6:19 am

rubyfoo

they keep people in line!

6:19 am

rubyfoo

and eat vermin

6:19 am

rubyfoo

and their skins make gorgeous shoes!

6:20 am

Lizlin

I don't think so Ruby - he had large tumours on his feet - we could see these! When they investigated, they found many more.

6:20 am

rubyfoo

(bad nel)

6:20 am

Lizlin

Funny though!

6:20 am

rubyfoo

that is very strange, liz, like the Taz devils with their facial tumors

6:21 am

Lizlin

Yes - the wildlife sanctuary here has set up a tassie devil breeding programme and is having some success.

6:21 am

rubyfoo

see you later, kids

6:21 am

lynxxx

bye Ruby

6:21 am

bichon

bye ruby

6:22 am

Lizlin

Have a good day Ruby - Hugs to you. Great news aboutt he puppy.

6:22 am

bichon

hi Aussie Babblers, lyn and liz

6:22 am

Lizlin

Hi Bichon :)

6:22 am

bichon

I heard they have a special island to put the cancer free devils

6:22 am

lynxxx

hi Bichon.

6:23 am

rubyfoo

that's good news, they seem to be doing everything they can

6:23 am

Lizlin

I don't know about that - I hope so. They're cute little creatures!

6:23 am

lynxxx

Tell me Bichon, how did the other dog go with his operation?

6:23 am

rubyfoo

6:24 am

bichon

He had this hi-tech operation with plates, bone grafts. Then, somehow he got his e-collar off and destroyed it! So they amputated the leg and he is fine. He was adopted by his foster mother and is living la vida loca [with happy hour every day with his friends].

6:25 am

Lizlin

It's amazing how well dogs cope with 3 legs!

6:25 am

bichon

I've never heard the devils described as "cute"

6:25 am

bichon

No problem whatsoever

6:25 am

rubyfoo

I have to go but our Aussie friends can tell you about our new pup!

6:25 am

lynxxx

The little wretch...but lovely to hear of his new happy life

6:25 am

Lizlin

Well, we watch them running about in their enclosure and that's cute!

6:25 am

bichon

You have a new pup already?

6:26 am

rubyfoo

no, but we've said yes to one in Barcelona who can be here in as little as 2 wks very lucky

6:26 am

Lizlin

Ruby's found a pup in Spain - Rafaella (Raffie). Hopes to have her in 2 weeks if it's not too cold! Being the obliging Aussie!

6:27 am

Lizlin

I'll let you talk for yourself!!!! lol!

6:27 am

bichon

And the Chow tradition continues

6:34 am

Lizlin

30 left for tomorrow. Enjoy your days - sleep well Lyn :)

6:34 am

bichon

off to start my day ttfn

7:58 am

sss1

cool

7:58 am

Mom

I don't remember Sandy is was back in 2005 but it seems to me that they were talking about word games and it was mentioned

7:59 am

sandyloo

8:00 am

Anniebrook

8:04 am

Mom

I have been so fortunate to make many friends here in Babbleland :-)

8:05 am

sandyloo

it was a speed version of babble - you had to put in as many words as poss in 3 mins- it had issues with the site not working well

8:05 am

sandyloo

Babble is different but I do love it too, nice people

8:05 am

Mom

there is one on FB called Ruzzle, works like that. you play 3 rounds.

8:15 am

sandyloo

Horses are a lot of work and expense

8:16 am

smores

I guess I shouldve said I used to play, haven't been on much since discovering Babble :)

8:16 am

sandyloo

I am learning to do their feet, it is very scary

8:17 am

MollyL

I bet it is Sandy. Getting kicked by a horse is no joke.

8:19 am

sandyloo

I am too old for it but it saves lots of money to be able to do it yourself

8:19 am

hurshy

i lived for a year in an in-law apt with some people who had 3 horses. one day i got home from work and the horses had got out, the gate hadn't been properly latched! the owners weren't home yet. so i was like, hmm, a dog i would just pick up and put back, but a horse? i didn't even know how to call them! i was like, "come here!" and they just looked at me. then they ran by me real fast and i was afraid they were running away but they stopped at the end of the driveway. and then i tugged on one's halter or whatever you call it, ng. and then i thought, i have to OFFER them something. so i found there were carrots in the barn and then they came and i shut them back in their fenced area.

8:19 am

mkg

not getting po quite tasty...............is there another clue?

8:19 am

ChampFit

type of mushroom...

8:20 am

Anniebrook

8:20 am

mkg

muishroom eh? hmmm

8:20 am

sandyloo

hurshy, the cleverest thing to do - I wave a carrot and Champ will follow me anywhere

8:20 am

hurshy

yes it was one of my most notable adventures in life.

8:20 am

ChampFit

No kidding! I imagine that was scary...good job!

8:20 am

mkg

i dont know more than two types and i dont see them here. guess i dont know that mushroom.

8:20 am

sandyloo

Horses are scary and big if you are not used to them and even then...

8:20 am

hurshy

mkg do you remember elaine getting back at the soup nazi by getting his recipe and reading it to him? "chopped po7 mushrooms..."

8:21 am

sandyloo

8:21 am

mkg

dont recall in that detail hurshy. sorry

8:21 am

ChampFit

LOVE old Seinfelds!

8:22 am

hurshy

yes it is the word for pig like bovine is cows, only change the last vowel

8:22 am

mkg

have the pig word and then ending is what i cant get.

8:22 am

sandyloo

po** + not out + a vowel

8:23 am

mkg

have po, then have not out and then i see only one vowel possible and it wont take it.

8:23 am

MollyL

Pig word with a different last letter

8:23 am

mkg

8:24 am

sandyloo

kyleteresa

Thank you Hurshy! That word was killing me!

smores

Anniebrook

8:51 am

jmcnrick

8:51 am

ChampFit

Oooh...forward progress makes me perky too.

8:52 am

8:52 am

jmcnrick

i almost forwarded your presale info post from FB to my boy to improve his sells technique on the houses. . . .

8:52 am

jmcnrick

i do about 30+ each year crossy . . . .

8:52 am

ChampFit

;) feel free! It generated some interest.

8:52 am

crosshair

you are a strong woman jmc;)

8:53 am

jmcnrick

but on the up side he has gotten a parttime job at a bicycle shop and after only 4 weeks is the number one seller except for the manager

8:53 am

jmcnrick

i am a woman who likes to eat crossy

8:53 am

ChampFit

Wow. Good for him!

8:54 am

jmcnrick

the boy can sell if people would give him a chance to sell their house

8:54 am

ChampFit

He needs to find some buyers.

8:55 am

jmcnrick

he is doing a little better in that department. . .

8:56 am

jmcnrick

i dreamed last night that i saw an upadilla. . . very similar to an armadilla but more like a hedge hog. . . i wondered this morning if it were a babble word. . . or did i make it up. . . .

8:57 am

jmcnrick

appears my dreams now include spelling of imaginary animals. . .

8:57 am

crosshair

either you drank too nuch or not enough before bed

8:58 am

jmcnrick

haha

8:58 am

crosshair

much

8:58 am

crosshair

i would add a tich more JD

8:58 am

ChampFit

ugh...that's not very relaxing. Sleep!

8:58 am

jmcnrick

i have always had vivid dreams. . .

8:58 am

crosshair

titch

8:59 am

jmcnrick

well the up side has been that if it becomes a nightmare i can usually take control of it and change the dream. . . but not always

8:59 am

ChampFit

my youngest does too. She's constantly telling me the odd things she dreams about.

8:59 am

crosshair

alos sounds like you are woken up a lot during the rem sleep cycle

9:00 am

crosshair

also..darn small laptop keyboards...

9:01 am

jmcnrick

well i am a very light sleeper. . .and i rarely turn over without waking first. . .but it has seemed to work for me for lo these many years

9:01 am

jmcnrick

i often write legal arguements or appeal letters in my sleep. . .

9:02 am

ChampFit

So you're productive night and day! Can you bill for that? ;)

9:02 am

crosshair

i am same.with apnea and sciatica ,sleep is a dream to me now:)

9:02 am

jmcnrick

i never did figure out how to do that champ! haha

9:03 am

jmcnrick

if you bill by the 6 minute interval how long is a dream?

9:04 am

jmcnrick

other than finding a bug killing company in the grid i am really struggling here. . . .

9:04 am

crosshair

we are dealing with and estate lawyer atm.she is very nice but i shudder to think of the bill at the end.the damn courts have sent the probate papers back twice due to teeny tiny spelling errors and such

9:05 am

ChampFit

Idk, but I say "billable". There has to be a way! bbl...got to get moving on the day.

9:05 am

jmcnrick

well i have sat on both sides of that table crossy. . .even though she bills by the hour you really are paying here for making it even smoother than it would be than if you tried it alone. . .

9:06 am

jmcnrick

haha have a great day champ!

9:06 am

crosshair

!! i would not even dream of trying it alone!

9:07 am

crosshair

would not be able to anyways.she had to affix her seal to coies of the will once it was deemed the last and was legit

9:07 am

jmcnrick

were there you go. . . and i cannot tell you how many hours she spends at meetings and conferences keeping up and not being paid one cent for her time. . . generally most lawyers (but not all) deserve their pay. . .

9:07 am

crosshair

copies

9:08 am

crosshair

seems everyone wnats a cetified copy

9:08 am

crosshair

damn keyboard

9:09 am

crosshair

you are right i am sure jmc.she must keep fresh and current and tht is her dime

9:10 am

jmcnrick

well i could tell you stories (and i am sure she could also) of people trying to hide codicils and destroy wills because they didn't like the new version. . . or others making new versions which never were signed or were signed when the person had no clue. . . .

9:10 am

rubyfoo

9:10 am

crosshair

((ruby))

9:10 am

jmcnrick

don't worry about the typos crossy. . . everyone here speaks typonese

9:10 am

jmcnrick

hi ruby

9:11 am

crosshair

thank god we never had that horror ,jmc.the will in question was 8 years old and the signatures in pen so we knew

9:12 am

jmcnrick

i had a case once that i called my bleak house case. . . the probate took me 14 years and i was really really trying to move it along. . . .

9:13 am

rubyfoo

hello jmc

9:13 am

crosshair

14 years??????!!!!!!!

9:13 am

jmcnrick

after 14 years i was finally paid a whopping $20,000 which comes out to about $1,500 per year. . . not a killing

9:13 am

crosshair

was there anything left of the estate after 14 years?? did it get gobbled up in fees?

9:14 am

jmcnrick

it had to do with two estates and a friend who kept stealing the money. . . .

9:14 am

crosshair

ugh

9:15 am

jmcnrick

no, the biggest problem was after i finally got my hands on the money several of the heirs had died and i so wanted to get shuck of it i probated their estates just to pay out the money to their heirs. . . the whole thing was moderate in size but there were 16 heirs. . . so no one got much

9:15 am

crosshair

i told all the parties listed in the will right off the bat that if they caused so much as a ripple during all this paperwork the mrs and i have to go through i would make it a point to make sure the entire thing got ate up in fees and other expenses and we would walk

9:16 am

jmcnrick

i didn't charge for probating those estates because the inheritance was the entire estate. . .

9:16 am

crosshair

that iis wild,jmc

9:17 am

crosshair

we have been at it since last september and i do not even want to hear the family members voices till we are ready to divide and close the estate account

9:17 am

jmcnrick

one of the heirs died in chicago and had an estate but his estate was closed and his attorney and i communicated. . .but his attorney was so old and he never got the estate reopened so that money escheated to the DC government. . . every so often my boy sees it listed in an account with my name and tells me a have a lost account and i have to remind him it is not my money. . . .

9:18 am

crosshair

tough case indeed,jmc

9:19 am

jmcnrick

just long. . . .

9:19 am

jmcnrick

haha i didn't even tell you the most shocking part!

9:19 am

crosshair

our biggest problem is one family member (who is not in the will) is holding on the cash of the deceased that should be incuded in the estate

9:19 am

rubyfoo

holding breath.....

9:19 am

jmcnrick

i lost track of the friend who was stealing the money for a while. . .

9:20 am

crosshair

on to some cash*

9:20 am

jmcnrick

i finally tracked her down and sent a scathing letter and shortly after i got a phone call from . . .

9:21 am

jmcnrick

her husband's niece who said that he had opened my letter (because the wife was in a nursing home) read it and had a heart attack!

9:21 am

crosshair

omg

9:21 am

rubyfoo

did you believe them?

9:21 am

jmcnrick

well unfortunately you are going to have to decide if the money or relative is more important. . .

9:21 am

crosshair

deadly pen indeed!

9:22 am

crosshair

my cat has more importance than this reltive

9:22 am

jmcnrick

oh yes . . .the niece told me where to find her aunt and i told her how sorry i was and sent flowers to the hospital

9:22 am

Anniebrook

Do all the people mentioned in the will have the right to see the will before it goes to probate?

9:22 am

rubyfoo

cats are more important than most relatives

9:23 am

rubyfoo

9:23 am

Anniebrook

((ruby))

9:23 am

crosshair

annie,i did not bother with it.no one called,no one offered hep or deframent of cost we collected,so we just did it all and sent it off

9:23 am

jmcnrick

it depends on the state law annie but usually not. . .

9:23 am

crosshair

help

9:24 am

crosshair

help with costs*

9:24 am

jmcnrick

9:29 am

crosshair

it is very complex on that end of things,annie so we are just keeping our heads down,doing what must be done and bringing the estate and my mother in laws final wishes to a conclusion

9:29 am

rubyfoo

no, she has a very black muzzle but is still quite pale. Will probably be shaded blonde or brownish

9:29 am

rubyfoo

9:30 am

rubyfoo

9:31 am

smores

9:31 am

rubyfoo

Rufie is somewhat subdue but all the extra attention is keeping him OK

9:31 am

crosshair

your other dog would of pined

9:31 am

rubyfoo

with these fragile dogs, it is necessary to have two; it's just that I was too close to Ruby

9:31 am

smores

I know they grieve too :(

9:32 am

rubyfoo

I let Rufie spend time with Ruby's body, trying to revive her, etc. so he hasn't tried to look for her and seems to understand

9:32 am

Scrabbler

Oh, no, Ruby died? I am so sad.

9:32 am

smores

I'm sure he will be happy to have another pup to play with :)

9:33 am

rubyfoo

yes, last week, but there is a new pup on the horizon which will help me recover my sanity

9:33 am

Anniebrook

can I get a clue for te 5/14?

9:34 am

rubyfoo

even though I knew she had a bad heart and had made it to ten, it was still horrible to find her dead

9:34 am

rubyfoo

don't have it, annie

9:34 am

Anniebrook

((ruby)) It must be terrible

9:34 am

smores

I don't think mine doesn't have much longer as she just turned 13. I know I will be a mess.

9:35 am

smores

wow... I messed that sentence up :)

9:35 am

rubyfoo

at least with Raffie coming, I've stopped crying

9:35 am

smores

9:35 am

rubyfoo

even being prepared, it is a hole in your heart

9:36 am

rubyfoo

what are her breed's expectations, smores?

9:36 am

smores

9:37 am

rubyfoo

that's how it was for me, smores, the tenth birthday made me hyper-aware

9:37 am

smores

She is a mutt Ruby...Mother was german shephard/ chow/chow...father was a wolf/mal hybrid

9:38 am

my friend,a big meryl fan, says "no she was just pulling her dress out of her shoe" and i said "i clearly saw her fingers go in her ass"

11:55 am

Pulling her dress out of her shoe would have involved a lower, more sweeping motion. That was clearly underwear related.

now it is time for crossy's recipie of the day!! this one is for a quick and easy cheese loaf!

12:33 pm

crosshair

Cheddar And Chive Quick Bread

3 cups self-rising flour
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
2 Tablespoons chives, freshly chopped
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
12 ounces beer (the better the taste the better the bread)
1/4 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and chives. Stir in cheese and beer, and pour into a lightly greased 9 x 5 loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes. Pour melted butter over the top and bake an additional 10 minutes.

Tips:
Use a good flavor of bottled beer! It'll make a difference.
Non alcoholic beer may be substituted.
In a pinch, you can use chopped green onion tops in place of chives.

but I don't know which one

12:37 pm

periwinkle

it was not the one you clued, jilly, looking

12:38 pm

LeslieAnn

jilly, consider the tiles are in order. a is 1, f is 2, the t in the 2nd row is 6. whatever the lowest number that works, that's where a word comes from. so if a word works from BOTH the t's in the first row, it would count from the third tile

12:39 pm

Jillyjill

i meant it uses the other t in the first row, peri

Gotta love the International Date Line!!

I used to have a snoopy poster, when I was at uni - snoopy just lying on his kennel, with thought bubble "tomorrow never comes!"

6:32 pm

Jillyjill

Guess it doesn't if it's already here...of course you could also go the route that you CAN live in the past...

6:33 pm

Lizlin

So if I fly to the W coast of Canada or the States, I arrive 3 hours before I left!!! Gotta really love the international date line! So, I guess it's possible to organise it so I always miss the Day of Atonement and never have to fast!

6:34 pm

Jillyjill

Using it to your benefit, if only one's body didn't show the wear and tear of those longggggg flights.

That's the problem. Have great sympathy for those whose work involves loads of international travel! The wear on their bodies must be unbelievable.

No, Molls, I soldiered on. And tomorrow, I must attend the funeral of the son of a good friend of mine. His body has just been recovered from a local river. He left a suicide note' three weeks ago, and we have all been out searching the river banks since then.

7:36 pm

Its just unthinkable what his family has been through for the past 3 weeks. At least they found him. Now, at least, they can have some closure.

7:36 pm

Oh God, that is horrible.

7:37 pm

For sure.

Death of a loved one is so hard. Suicide is an even heavier burden. I will say a prayer for those he left behind.

hi welki!

7:44 pm

welki

hi sue, crossy

7:44 pm

Soodle

(((Sue)))). I saw the photos of you and that handsome hunk of yours. What a good looking pair you are!

7:45 pm

crosshair

whats the difference between an irish dog and a canadian dog??...2 bottles of glenfiddich and a kilt:)

7:45 pm

uusue2

thanks, soodle! He has more dress clothes than I do; I had to go shopping :-)

7:48 pm

Soodle

Welki!!!! Literally wiping the tears of laughter from my eyes. So funny. (((((Thank you)))))

Soodle

There was the most incredible full moon here tonight. Yellow as a ducks beak. I'd love to hear if you guys across the Atlantic will see it as we did.

7:53 pm

MollyL

No Soodle, we have a different moon over here.
: P

7:54 pm

MollyL

Ahem, I mean yes and it's very pretty.

7:55 pm

crosshair

it is a clear sky here and the moon is beautiful and full and bright

7:56 pm

uusue2

cloudy here, unfortunately

7:57 pm

Soodle

Ah yes. I always suspected I was communicating with alien life forms!!!! Seriously, though, is your view of the moon the same as ours? I ask, because whenever I'm the other side of the Equator, I get a different perspective, like a big Cheshire Cat Smile moon, which we never get here.

7:58 pm

uusue2

At the same latitude it should look pretty much the same, Soodle

7:59 pm

Soodle

Oh dear. I'd love to say 'maybe the meds are kicking in', but I haven't taken any.....

8:00 pm

welki

glad you liked the video, Soodle - not much else I could offer under the sad circumstances

8:00 pm

Soodle

Thanks Sue. So, anyone with cloudless skies, have a look at tonight's moon. Its spectacular.

8:01 pm

uusue2

I liked it too, welki, and I sent it to Frank - it will give him a laugh too!

8:02 pm

Soodle

Welki, anything that makes me laugh is very welcome right now. Thanks again. I've shared the link with a bunch of friends.

8:03 pm

welki

a man i work with, an irish sheriff (of all things) sent it to me when i was having a bad day

8:04 pm

Soodle

An Irish sheriff? Poacher turned gamekeeper?

8:06 pm

welki

LOL - will pass that along tomorrow. this is the guy who, no matter what, can diffuse the worst possible scenario with his quick wit and charm. (we owe it all to ireland :)

8:13 pm

welki

sue - thanks, too. you're still at work?

8:13 pm

uusue2

no, I'm home now.

8:13 pm

welki

and your blisters are all better? (next time, wear sneakers!)

8:13 pm

uusue2

I'm on babble time, so it's after 8 pm here.

8:13 pm

Soodle

Lol Welki. Let me know what he says!!

8:14 pm

welki

well, Soodle, it does help that he has a gun :)

8:14 pm

uusue2

yes, fine - wasn't blisters exactly, just really sore balls of feet, and achy knees.

8:15 pm

uusue2

Sneakers are what I usually wear :-)

8:17 pm

Soodle

Yarrghh. I hate guns. Even legally held, totally law abiding guns. Son of Soodle has 2 hunting guns chez Soodle, & they worry the heck out of me.

8:20 pm

welki

not fond of them myself, but i don't see a future without them, at least not in my lifetime

8:20 pm

Soodle

Lol. Just heading for bed now. I had a last look at tonights amazing moon, and am in awe that some of my Babble buddies will be looking at the self same moon!! Goodnight Moonies!!

8:21 pm

Jacula

Opposite type of dwelling to an igloo for an Inuit (or an Eskimo)... I admit, I had to use the list hours earlier to find this. It wasn't my last word... that was pi4/9 (the first).

10:06 pm

Jacula

I'll remember the word (I hope!) for the future... sounds a bit like something you get food particles out of your teeth with.

10:07 pm

Jacula

That was my take on tu5/22, btw.

10:07 pm

uusue2

sounds about right, jac :-)

10:07 pm

Jacula

Hi uusue. Yes.

10:09 pm

I suppose the getting food out of gaps in teeth would work for tu5 and pi4! lol

10:09 pm

uusue2

:-)

10:11 pm

Jacula

Unless anyone urgently needs any clues, I'll be off to bed now...

10:11 pm
