LOL, Scrab. A guy went camping and was walking around looking for a place to get supplies. He saw a little store on the other side of a lake but saw no way to get there. A blonde came out of the store and he yelled at her "How do you get to the other side?" She replied "You're already on the other side."

ok mimi :a blonde i know was tired of her hair and dyed it brunette and to celebrate she went for a drive in the country and on the way she saw a flock of sheep and an old farmer herding them in a field.on a sudden impulse she stopped and walked over to where the farmer was leaning by the fence looking out over his heard and she said "excuse me,i love sheep and have always wanted one.i i can guess the exact number of sheep you have roaming around out there can i take one home with me?" the farmer being a sporting fella said "sure,go right ahead" the woman took 3 seconds and said "to hundred and six" the farmer was stunned as this was the correct figure and true to his word he opened the gate and let the woman pick one to bring back to her car. as she was doing this the farmer stopped her and said "if i can guess the real colour of your hair can i have my sheep dog back?"

A plane is flying cross-country when the captain comes on the intercom and says "I must tell you we've lost an engine. But don't worry...we still have 3 more and will be fine. We'll just be about 20 minutes late." After awhile longer he again says "Folks, we've lost another engine. But we'll be fine...just will be about an hour later." Incredibly, awhile later he again says "I can't believe this but we've lost engine #3. We can still make it but will be a couple of hours late." A blonde turns to the guy sitting next to her and says "I hope we don't lose the 4th engine or we'll be up here all night."

9:18 am

do women prefer blonde men?or dark hair?
9:18 am
crosshair

There was a blonde who was sitting next to a lawyer on an airplane. The lawyer was naturally bored, so he kept bugging the blonde to play a game of intelligence with him.

The blonde was reluctant, so the lawyer offered her 10 to 1 odds. He told her that every time she could not answer his question, she owed him $5, but every time he could not answer hers, he'd give her $50. The lawyer figured the blonde was so dumb, he could not lose, and the blonde thought for a few minutes and reluctantly accepted to play his game.

The lawyer fires his first question "What is the distance between the Earth and the nearest star?"

Without saying a word the blonde handed him $5. The blonde then asked the lawyer "What goes up a hill with 3 legs and comes back down the hill with 4 legs?"

The lawyer's face looked extremely puzzled. He spent several hours, looking up everything he could on his laptop and even placing numerous air-to-ground phone calls trying to figure out the answer. Finally, the angry and frustrated lawyer handed the blonde $50.00.

The blonde put the $50 into her purse quickly without saying a word. The lawyer was outraged at this point and asked, "Well, what is answer?"

The blonde glanced at him with a smirk on her face and handed him a $5 bill.

business class is VERY nice - when I was flying internationally a lot I would get upgraded every once in a while
4:06 pm

Hugely important, Molls. I wrote reams & reams when my (euphemism alert) domestic circumstances changed. I never saved any of it, or sent it anywhere, but it was cathartic.

with my artritis andsciatica i could nt be rammed into a seat in cattle class
4:06 pm

A blank computer screen, ten or fifteen minutes in which you just purge everything in your heart and soul, then the DELETE button. It's very therapeutic.
4:07 pm
crosshair

yes,purging it all can be very good.what i did was work with the hospital talking with men just diagnosed with my first cancer and guiding them.that was very therapudic for me
4:08 pm
uusue2

I'll bet that was, crossy. There's a volunteer at our cancer center who's had cancer himself, too.
4:08 pm

because as good as the oncologists are,they treat the cancer,they do not treat your life as you go through the fight

I can't remember if I flagged the CNN story which put lil ole Trim as one of the top 10 places to visit which could change your child's life. I know you don't have a 'child' to take with you, but it was a mighty feather in Trim's cap! Up there with the Gallopagas Islands & the Grand Canyon!

Molly, back to an earlier conversation. I was wondering if you went to Peary High School, and if so, when did you graduate? I graduated in 1981

PH. Molls is 6. I don't believe she's graduated yet...... :-p
4:33 pm
MollyL

I did not go to Peary. I was a Catholic school girl who hung out with all the bad boys from Peary. : D
4:34 pm
MollyL

Actually, I still hang out with some of them.
4:34 pm
phandmd

Oh, OK. There were lots of bad boys from Peary! lol
4:34 pm

some 20 years ago...
4:36 pm

Everybody moves to Fredneck. It's cheaper to live there. My kids (older two) live there.
4:36 pm

that's exactly why we moved here.

4:43 pm

It's like Baltimore. People who want to impress never say they live in Baltimore. They identify by neighborhood. Like Roland Park (ritz area)

4:54 pm
RoundBarn

when I was on earlier today Kaplan was astonished that teehee wasn't a word. (That was the time of the blonde jokes on the chat, but something else of interest but I forget what. The jokes began bcz something else was stressful, Crossy, was it, told quite a long one.
4:56 pm
RoundBarn

I guess there's a way of pulling up old chats, to find that other subject you were discussing--but I don't know how. I came on just now and missed what Sue was saying abt Frank, just the aftermath.
4:57 pm

Click on the icon farthest to the right above the chat log. That lets you view "Entire chat log" from the time the grid flipped.

It's hard to keep track of what is going on in chat when someone posts something of great length.
5:00 pm
RoundBarn

I just checked on your page and read your April 20. Thanks for the update. And thank you for the big dipper--Springfield has so much light we don't see many stars--but at my place in Vermont, the stars are wonderfully clear.
5:01 pm
uusue2

yw, roundbarn, we have a lot of light here too, being in town, but the cornfields are close if we want to get to dark places
5:02 pm
MollyL

Eek! Dark cornfields are the stuff of Stephen King stories. : O
5:02 pm
uusue2

hahaha, you should see the Halloween corn mazes around here, they really build on that
5:03 pm
RoundBarn

our farm was alway dark skyed--some of my happiest memories is trudging up the lane in the dark (too much snow for the car) and the brilliance of the night sky.
5:04 pm
uusue2

lovely image, roundbarn!
5:05 pm
RoundBarn

but molly--we have had at least one cornfield muder down here, a few years ago. So you're right, there. I think you need to know your area, these days.

All this lovely sky talk--but the sun is out, I'm leaving you people--whom I've come to enjoy--and going outside. so goodby, all. uuchurch today was on earth day.
5:07 pm
MollyL

For the most part, I find rural areas like cornfields beautiful. But I'm not sure I would be out and about in one at night. Due to my scaredy cat nature.
5:08 pm
jmcnrick

i just came back from a walk at the arboretum among the azaleas. . .and then planting salvia in my yard. . .i am ready for some indoor time
5:08 pm

Thanks for the reminder RB. Everyone do something nice for Ma Earth tomorrow. : )
5:08 pm

our local arboretum was badly impacted by floods, and is only just re-opening
5:09 pm

5:09 pm

i told two blonde jokes,one poking fun at blondes and the other with blondes showing people who was boss.sorry about the length of them

Thanks to Miley Cyrus, it's better to refer to salvia as white sage. : D

5:11 pm
RoundBarn

ok, I remember now what the other conversation was, it wasn't really stressful--but Kaplan and Mael discovered they lived on the SAME street. It was fun to just keep watching their exchanges. Crossy, your jokes were fine.
5:11 pm
MollyL

Another kind of salvia.
5:11 pm
jmcnrick

cool are they going to meet up?
5:12 pm

It seemed heading that way--they got talking about coffee places--what did you think, Crossy?

JMC is the Babble Meet Up Queen, RB. Look for her in a neighborhood near you!
5:16 pm
RoundBarn

the thing abt the chat box is, people seem to pay little attention to the grid. I like it when someone accidentally puts in a grid word.
5:16 pm

haha! I loves meeting babblers. . . I has forgot how many i have met!
5:16 pm

any any babbler is welcome for a nice crossy canadian north woods breakfast :)

if the canadian government didn't always harass me at the border i would come up crossy....
5:17 pm

Actually, I should say that Sue and JMC are neck and neck for Babble Meet Up Queen. Sue did quite a bit of "meeting" last year.

Frank is often cold these days, so has the heat in the house cranked way up; I am sweating most of the time
5:25 pm
crosshair

we do not usually have them because untill last 10 years or so,they would only be used a handfull of times in the summer and was a waste of money
5:25 pm
jmcnrick

poor frank we should get him one of those blanket snuggly things
5:25 pm

Mind you, it gets over 100 degrees here in the summer at times. There is no way I could do without air conditioning.

5:27 pm

nice.my white count was a ruin

That's good JMC. The rest of us are sweltering while you have cool feet and a warm fan breeze. : P
5:27 pm

it costs several thousand dollars per shot but I guess his insurance is covering it
5:28 pm
crosshair

good,good.mine was 400/shot covered under provincial health care
5:28 pm
uusue2

then his magnesium has been getting out of whack so they give him supplemental Mg most weeks, sometimes he has to go back in for more
5:28 pm
jmcnrick

you lie. . . you aren't sweltering . . . you are bringing about climate change while you have to put on a sweater in august because of the a/c! :-P

it has been this way since the getgo. . . the hvac guy who saved me from carbonmonoxide poisoning didn't like the way the hotwater heater was installed but i did have enough money to deal with it. . .
5:40 pm

The problem with being environmentally correct (green is so trendy) is that it costs a lot more than most people can afford.

actually the solar panels are pretty affordable. . . you can have them installed and rent them. . .

5:44 pm

well the ondemand water heater wasn't a lot more expensive than a regular one when i needed a regular one i just switched.. . .

a geothermal heat pump costs about twice what a regular heating and A/C system would, but pays for itself in 4-5 years

It's relaxing for sure and we were saying how nice it is to have the house to ourselves, with no guests expected! Lovely to have them here, but good when they're gone!

on friday we were wondering if she'd even start, till they found the guy in the boat
7:21 pm
Lizlin

I guess, Molly that people like visiting Australia and knowing that we're living here gives our friends a place to visit, knowing that they can stay here.
7:22 pm
HarryHood

wow! got nbt really easily on this grid....I have a feeling it's to instill some sense of false security
7:22 pm
Lizlin

It's a friendly grid.
7:23 pm
HarryHood

hope so, liz, cause I'm running on like 1.5 cylinders tonight
7:23 pm
HarryHood

and I haven't babbled in months
7:24 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

that means your brains are all rebooted and ready to kill the grid fast, harry!
7:24 pm
Lizlin

I'm down to 11 - went to list at about 30 and have only used a dictionary twice! So it can't be bad!

WTG!
7:29 pm

If you go to Lickety, Harry - he has an extra word - tu 7, which is not accepted by enable.
7:30 pm
MollyL

Attention all people who play Babble: You can use the list. You can use the dictionary. You do not have to feel guilty about doing that. This is a word game where you find words and learn new words. All good.
: D
7:30 pm
HarryHood

good to know. ty
7:31 pm
Lizlin

Just so Molly - but it's all about the personal challenge for me! How far can I get at each step!
7:31 pm
Lizlin

That should've been ? at the end!
7:33 pm
dan2bit

lickety has a fake word today?
7:33 pm
MollyL

And the personal challenge is well and as it should be. It's just that people always sound guilty about getting help. Especially using the list. Meanwhile, they have been getting help from clues the whole time they didn't use the list. It just confuses me at times.
7:34 pm
Lizlin

I'm just pleased if I can do as much as possible before I use help!
7:34 pm
MollyL

Turnons. All one word. Think of it what you will, 2Bit.
7:34 pm
Lizlin

Love the pic of your daughter, Dan
7:35 pm

But aren't clues help? I've never gotten why people are okay with clues and seem to feel guilty about using the list.

It makes perfect sense to me, Molly. And I get irritated at those that get pissy when they are not given a clue quick enough.
7:38 pm

Sometimes people are just deep in the grid and don't see the request - or the chog is moving too quickly!
