Gummy babies are te8
1:40 am
TraderKate
i love a good thunder storm, but most of ontario south of around sudbury has been under a tornado watch all afternoon and evening. i think the last pulse of strong cells has now passed us by. quite a bit of localized damage/power outages... but the way it was setting up, it could have been very bad indeed.
1:41 am
flosey
ah, that is very scary Kate, glad you're safe
1:42 am
ChrissieDee
Help with the corner O please?
1:43 am
grannyrose
oo4, 5
1:43 am
TraderKate
i think we are all fine. carleecat didn't get the worst of it for once, crossy got the nastiest bit... rolling pulses all day, joso would have gotten a lot of the high winds and driving rain
1:43 am
TraderKate
throughout the day
1:44 am

1:48 am
TraderKate
toronto got all the major pulses - driving rain, high winds, and a bit of flooding (not bad) that lasted throught the day. they have been clear for a while now. the usual downed trees and power out. burlington and oakville actually got it worse. at one point the maps showed over 1200 lightening strikes in an hour according to the weather network.
1:48 am

1:51 am
flosey
goodnight Kate, thanks for weather report
1:51 am
TraderKate
woodbridge fine, scarborough okay too... north - claedon area among others got it the worst. nothing for you to worry about.. but toronto, and montreal cancelled flights today, his plans for travel may have been altered
1:52 am
TraderKate
caledon, that is....
1:52 am
flosey
could be, we'll know when we take them in tomorrow
1:53 am

Hi Sprite - sunny in the Netherlands?
3:51 am
sprite
not today, very overcast. But up till today it was pretty sunny. And with you?
3:51 am
Glantarell
still sunny
3:51 am
sprite
good :) We were due, don't you think? A bit of summer before autumn sets in.
3:52 am
Glantarell
over 2 weeks now, and forecast also for next week - it feels like a proper summer, we didn;t get one last year or the year before!
3:52 am
sprite
hehehe, gmta
3:57 am
sprite
my love spent most of yesterday in our garden... so happy to be out of hospital :)
3:59 am
Glantarell
i haven't been babbling at the same time as you for a while, didn't know your love had been in hospital - hope s/he is recovering well
4:00 am
sprite
yes he is, doing much better and healing up further all the time. Babble kept me sane last week :)
4:00 am
Glantarell
good to hear he's doing better - and thta you remained sane!
4:01 am
sprite
:D Thank you! How are things with you?
4:02 am
Glantarell
they are fine, mostly
4:02 am
sprite
that is all we can ask for, really, isn't it?
4:02 am
Glantarell
my doctor is a bit concerned that my recent blood test results don;t make sense to him - apparently i have an inflammation marker which is sky high but i don;t appear to be ill
4:03 am
Glantarell
so he has referred me to oncology, i go on 30th - thye may have some blood test results on file form 8 years ago - the doctor is keeping his fingers crossed that high inflammatory marker is normal for me
4:03 am
sprite
ouch, that is tough. Some inflammation but no idea where. He checked gums and bladder right away, I take it?
4:04 am
sprite
oncology... ok that is pretty serious. I hope it won't be anything like that, Glant, and that it is either normal for you or due to something simple.
4:04 am
Glantarell
he says the level of marker indicates severe inflammation - he'd expect somebody with a rheumatoid arthritis attack leaving them almost unable to move at the levels my test show - and i walk in with a sile, feeling fine
4:05 am
Glantarell
*smile
4:06 am
Glantarell
i hope it's nothing serious, I feel OK but my skin keeps doing starnge things - painless, but strange - this morning I had long lumpy lines down my arm, a few weeks ago it was strange spots on hands, feet and chest
4:06 am
sprite
strange readings, Glant. And strange symptoms. I'll hold you in my thoughts and prayers. May the outcome be minor and easy to resolve.
4:07 am
Glantarell
hope so
4:22 am

I am good, feeling the reaction to last week's stress, so taking things easy.
Rob is doing well. Spent most of yesterday in the garden, enjoying being outdoors again. Walking a lot. Much less pain.
4:32 am

4:33 am

4:34 am

specialist said to walk a lot, movement is good, no lifting though. When I had a hernia, ages ago, strict bedrest and muscle relaxants were the treatment. Things change.

7:54 am
crosshair

7:55 am
Anniebrook
I have learned lots of words on babble...not that they can be used in ordinary conversation but still interesting
7:56 am
crosshair
most of babble cannot be used in ordinary conversation ;)) "i was walking over the cwms one day and a nene attacked me out of nowhere causing me to drop my etui"..just does not work lol
7:57 am
Anniebrook
crossy, I understood that completely :)
7:58 am
crosshair

7:58 am
joso

7:59 am

8:01 am
crosshair

8:01 am
lbdawger

8:03 am
crosshair
it is black.not our first colour choice but i got a kick ass deal on one that was on the lot
8:04 am
welki
you'll like the black and end up glad it was the one you got - i wanted a different color, too, but ended up with black - very sharp looking
8:04 am
welki
best of luck with it :)
8:05 am
crosshair

crosshair
yuppers,when you bury the tailpipe in water or mud,it is nice to not have it stall out

8:16 am
crosshair
lol,she had no choice,she was riding shotgun. the rain was torrential,tornado warnings issued brances and trees were all over to path we wre driving on,visibility was so bad i had the headlights off and the fog lamps on:)) water and mud was splashing up over top of the hood.was a good christening
8:16 am
crosshair
branches
8:17 am
crosshair
and the winch would of been handy.had one blow down i could not go over or around and had to back track
8:18 am
welki
<-- would have been white knuckled, screaming, 'watch that branch! you'll scratch the jeep on the first day!"
8:18 am
welki
you'll be at princess auto for the winch pretty soon :)
8:18 am
crosshair
lol,yup all on the first day.my beloved was a white knuckled mess
8:19 am
crosshair

8:20 am
welki

MollyL
Have fun at the Bon Jovi concert Trif. He puts on a great show.
8:29 am
Anniebrook
crossy, did you lease or buy?
8:29 am
welki
the navigation alerts might be helpful if you travel (particularly in the city - for traffic alerts), but here, it's not worth it
8:29 am
Trifioso
is it hard to choose what to listen to crossy? I feel I would be overwhelmed with the choices!
8:29 am
Trifioso
and thanks molly
8:30 am
Anniebrook
I leased my Honda and glad I did
8:31 am
crosshair
we bought,annie,but the bank will own a portion of it for a few years

8:36 am
Trifioso
it is what has to happen right now. work is a real stresser at the moment. the powers that be desperately underallocated the amount of staff we would need for the summer, and the remaining staff is overwhelmed. it means a bigger check, but a smaller life
8:38 am
lynxxx
ugh - just hope they remember what has happened for next year
8:39 am

Ah yes, the inescapable Babble vortex. No one is safe from it.
12:22 pm

12:23 pm

i really should learn to turn my computer off instead of hibernate since i would not then automatically open to babbleland. . .
12:24 pm

and then you'd just say - wish i'd left it in hibernate so i don't have to wait for it to load :D
12:24 pm

We have a walk in cold section where they keep all the beer. That is my last stop at the grocery store and I linger there, pretending to studiously inspect all the high priced beers. : D
1:53 pm
uusue2
hi Molly! The Costco by us has a walk-in cooler for produce, which is also nice
1:54 pm
MollyL
I haven't been to Costco in ages. It's so hard to shop there for just two people.

we're not used to this heat really its starting to hit 30 average now
1:55 pm

it has cooled off a bit today, still in the mid-80s but the humidity is lower - amazing how much difference that makes!
1:56 pm

thats the problem with the uk at the moment, its been wet for 7 years then when the heat comes so does the humidity

sleep is the worst part you cant get comfortable at night, at least its been overcast all day today which might help. they've given warnings on the news for people to be very careful as we're not used to it, its more hotter than LA supposidly.
1:59 pm
zoozzoom
Still been a deep blue sky here, Sandr :-)
1:59 pm
uusue2
heat can be deadly; it is important to stay hydrated. If you don't have air conditioning, you can use fans - they are better than nothing and can really help especially if it cools off at night
1:59 pm
sandr
wheres that zoom?
2:00 pm
zoozzoom
Isle Of Wight.
2:00 pm
sandr
yorkshire for me
2:00 pm
SuperKitten
we also have been feeling the heat in the us.
2:00 pm
MollyL
I said a little prayer of thanksgiving in front of my fan last night. I am using more of them to keep the AC at a reasonable level. A cool breeze on the back of a sweaty neck is lovely.
2:00 pm
SuperKitten
I feel for you
2:01 pm
sandr
a bucket of water over the head is fantastic, at least we dont have the dreaded hose pipe ban yet, my roses are loving this weather
2:01 pm
zoozzoom
I know i am mad..but i am loving the heat...It is the cold i cannot stand.
2:02 pm
SuperKitten
I'd rather stick to the AC.
2:03 pm
zoozzoom
Ha i am sure the ho4 pipe ban will soon be in place, Sandr.
2:03 pm
sandr
well lets face it...we moan when its cold, we moan when its hot.
2:03 pm
MollyL
I'm not sure I like either, Zoom. But I find cold depressing.
2:03 pm
zoozzoom
We are, Brits..we love to moan :-)
2:04 pm
MollyL
Oh trust me, you Brits have not cornered the market on moaning. Plenty of that here in the US.
: D
2:05 pm
sandr
100 left, getting stuck now
2:05 pm
SuperKitten
I can picture you in a British accent, zoom...
2:05 pm
zoozzoom
At least when i get hot i can peel of layers of clothing..putting on soo many in cold weather makes me feel like i am being stifled.
2:06 pm
zoozzoom
hahaha i'll take your word for that, Molly :-)
2:06 pm
SuperKitten
Makes me like I'm trapped, or in jail
2:07 pm
zoozzoom
Off not of..sorry.
2:08 pm
SuperKitten
Everyone makes kistakes, your humn.
2:09 pm
zoozzoom

Soodle
Lol!!! Picturing Molly in the beer aisle, supposedly considering which six-pack she should purchase. Then, when nobody is looking, she lurries in about 20 x 20 packs!! :-)
2:21 pm
MollyL
It's funnier than that. While I am perusing the froo-froo ales, I have a 12-pack of cheap stuff in my cart.
2:22 pm
MollyL
I do, however buy the good stuff on occasion, when my kids deign to visit.
2:24 pm
SuperKitten
Anyone heard of GreyWoulf? I'm his daughter.
2:24 pm
Soodle
Cheap stuff is good stuff. My yardstick when buying wine or beer is A) Does it come in liquid form and B) is there alcohol in it. Once those boxes are ticked, I'm happy.
2:25 pm
MollyL
Soodle, I know what it means, what is the pronunciation for dar bhri na gréine is na gealai?
2:27 pm
Soodle
Dhar vree na grain-ya isss na gwallee! Or there abouts. My Irish teacher is probably spinning in her grave.
2:29 pm
MollyL
Thank you. Finding out how to pronounce Gaelic is hard to do on the internet.
2:31 pm
Soodle
Any time Molls! We got to get your pronounciation up to scratch before you get here!
2:35 pm
MollyL
I am so thick-tongued when it comes to Gaelic. That and my basic dislike of tea makes me think my Irish blood has been infected somehow.
2:39 pm
Soodle
Nope. You like beer. Your pedigree is intact.
2:43 pm
Jillyjill
Hello all...or at least Molly and soodle! ((hugs))
2:43 pm
Soodle
The surprise party for my brother's 50th was a roaring success. He was genuinely surprised, & the festivities finished uo (well, actually I left them to it,)at 5.30 this am. Hi Jilly :-)
2:46 pm
MollyL
How did hoity toity sister in law react to the parents coming along?
2:49 pm
Soodle
Not much she could say, Molls. The Olds were in situ when she, along with the birthday boy, made her Grand Entrance. At that stage, there was nothing she COULD say. And the aged parents really enjoyed the night.
2:50 pm
MollyL
Good for you for bringing them. They were the cause for the celebration, they should have been there to enjoy it.
2:52 pm
Soodle
It worked out well, with a complete lack of ill- will all round. A date to be marked as historic in the O Carroll family history annals!
2:53 pm
Soodle
Hi Foffle. :-)
2:54 pm
MollyL
I will take that as a sign of changing fortune and have even more faith that lottery winnings are imminent.
2:54 pm
Soodle
Hows the weather where you are Jilly?
2:54 pm
Foffle
Hi Soodle - love your profile script
2:56 pm
Jillyjill
OMG soodle....I am rofl over your profile....
2:56 pm
Jillyjill
HI foffle!
2:56 pm
Soodle
Molly, my youngest is absolutely mad into The Secret. Power of positive thinking etc.. She has given me a stone, which I must rub, and concentrate on positivity! Heck! I'll give it a go...,.
2:57 pm
Soodle
:-). So glad ye like it!!!!
2:57 pm
Foffle
phantom - hazard
2:58 pm
Jillyjill
brb...gonna grab a snack...
2:59 pm
Soodle
Bring back a snack for us Jilly..... :-)
3:00 pm
MollyL
The Secret was a kind of pop culture take on the power of positive thinking. That philosophy has been around for ages. The basic tenet being, thoughts become things.
3:00 pm
MollyL
If your mind is full of negative thought and worry, that is what you attract. If your mind is full of positive thought and confidence in the best, that is what you attract.
3:02 pm
Jillyjill
*places fresh pea pods and homemade trail mix in PB*
3:02 pm
Soodle
I'm a little bit tired & emotional (for emotional - read hungover) after the party last nite. I think I may treat myself to an early night, chanting Thoughts Become Things. Molly, you & my Suzie would get on like a house on fire!
3:03 pm
MollyL
We would, we are old souls.
3:06 pm
jesdraggon
afternoon all
3:06 pm
Jillyjill
Hi there jes! How's the animal kingdom today?
3:07 pm
jesdraggon
frustrtating - 8:30, 9, 9:30 appointments all no call/no showed, then my 10:00 showed up at 10:25, right about the same time my 10:30 showed up.
3:07 pm
Soodle
Lol. I look at Suzie. 18. Beautiful. Brainy. First 'proper' boyfriend. Literally, the world is her oyster. How I hope things stay good for her. Sheesh, I'm getting maudlin now. Hiya Jess :-)
3:08 pm
MollyL
*Cues up "Where Are You Going My Little One" for maudlin Soodle*
3:08 pm
ivesy3
frustrating when people come inton the library 5 mins before we close and want to look for movies..i want to toss them out the window, the people not the movies
3:08 pm
Jillyjill
Sorry Jes...people can be such idiots...
3:09 pm
Jillyjill
*adds 'Sunrise, Sunset" to soodles playlist*
3:10 pm
jesdraggon
and the 10 that showed up late is a client i don't like anyway - he bitches EVERY TIME about how much flea treatment costs, like it's my fault that he has 2 DOZEN freaking cats? yeah, it's gonna add up when you're treated that many animals. But the skin issues will NOT GO AWAY until you treat the fleas. And he keeps getting more animals!
3:11 pm
Soodle
Humming along with those songs, while sympathising with Jess & Ivesy.
3:11 pm
MollyL
I would help you Ivesy. People who come in five minutes before closing time anywhere are rude and self absorbed.
3:11 pm
Jillyjill
Many of the big box stores shut their doors a bit early to prevent that...
3:11 pm
MollyL
*Hands Soodle the Emotional Empath crown*
3:12 pm
ivesy3

3:16 pm
ivesy3

3:16 pm
lbdawger
a large g & t sounds good. too bad I don't have anything but the ice and large glass. :(
3:16 pm
MollyL
Probably not LBD. The few times I have been up in the wee hours and looked at Babble chat, it seems as though the bar is raging on.
3:19 pm
MollyL
*Takes pity on LBD and fills her frosty glass with gin, tonic and fresh lime juice*
3:20 pm
lbdawger
ahh, thank you, Molly. just need a light breeze to make it a perfect day here. otherwise it's kinda stifling. sitting in the dark, just with only the light from my computer screen.
3:20 pm
Jillyjill
Any smoke up your way?
3:21 pm
lbdawger
no, fortunately the fires are far enough away from us.
3:21 pm
Jillyjill
And me too Dawg, everything shut down tight and curtains pulled...wishing I had AC
3:21 pm
jesdraggon

3:21 pm
lbdawger
the only misfortune happening up here are people falling off the trails in glacier and killing themselves.
3:21 pm
Jillyjill
We supposedly have some from Calif fires, but I don't really notice it
3:21 pm
jesdraggon

3:21 pm
lbdawger

3:22 pm
lbdawger

Jillyjill

3:23 pm
lbdawger

3:24 pm
Jillyjill
Usually I do salad....
3:25 pm
lbdawger
I think that's what i'll do, I don't want to h4t up the house
3:25 pm
jesdraggon
chop up potatoes and cook them on the barbeque with the kabobs
3:25 pm
jesdraggon
or roast whole ears of corn.
3:26 pm
Jillyjill
Summer cooking here onlly involves microwave or BBQ
3:26 pm
lbdawger
should have bought corn this morning...darn
3:26 pm
lbdawger
kabobs will be on the grill. hmmm, taters on the grill... a possibility.
3:27 pm
Jillyjill
I have a grill stir fry utensil....or put them in aluminum foil...
3:27 pm
jesdraggon
or take your potatoes, cut them in half length wise, coat the skin with olive oil and roll them in salt and pepper, then cook them on the grill
3:28 pm
lbdawger
those suggestions are making me hungry. must go rummage for a nosh and maybe a nap! lol bbl
3:28 pm
jesdraggon
bye, dawg :)
3:29 pm
Jillyjill
STay cool dawg!
3:32 pm
jesdraggon
oh, watermelon and fresh raw peas are also good summer side dishes
3:33 pm
Jillyjill
Wonderful coworker brought me in a huge bag of fresh pea pods after she heard my crop had failed to come up...
3:36 pm
MollyL
Did you ever figure out why your crop failed?
3:36 pm
Jillyjill
Probably soil molly...

My nephew James, aka Jamsie, attained the age of 7 today. I went to the toy store this afternoon. Huge signs all over the shop.. 'PLEASE DO NOT ASK. WE HAVE NO PADDLING POOLS LEFT''.
3:44 pm
jesdraggon

3:44 pm
MollyL
Like someone said earlier, Soodle. You all are down to buckets of cool water over your heads.
3:46 pm
MollyL
I have a friend whose son is a Jamie. Full name: Jameson. I'm so proud.
3:51 pm
Soodle
Clearly a child with enormous potential, Molly. Lol Jess!! So true. My nephew is a cross between Denis the Menace and a boy soprano. He is an absolute joy to spend time with!
3:53 pm
MollyL

crosshair
foffle,i was on dollar store glasses for 2 years and i also thought they did the trick.what i did not know untill my first full eye exam was not only did i have glaucoma,but one eye was perfect and one eye needed a corrective lens,so what i was really doing was damaging the good eye while trying to fix the bad eye with dollar store glasses
4:12 pm
crosshair

4:12 pm
Foffle

I don't know about her other views, but definitely unsettle a whole lot of Jews
4:37 pm
MollyL
Sorry Bich. Did not mean to indicate that I agreed with everything she said. Just that she was one of the first women making her way in the political arena...which was largely male at that time.
4:37 pm
bichon
I understand Molly, but I wanted that brought out.
4:38 pm
crosshair
well,never knew the woman,but she has passed on and rest in peace
4:40 pm
bichon
She said the nasty things a few years ago and I won't if it was a result of dementia
4:41 pm
crosshair
well,my da is just past 70,and not all his cheese is firmly aligned on his cracker anymore,so anything is possible
4:42 pm
bichon
I think that might have been the end of her in the WH Press room
4:44 pm
bichon
th + to glean a harvest
4:48 pm
Jillyjill
Actually bichon, she is Jewish herself and if you read her comments, they were directed at the occupation of Palestine only, not a slam against the Jewish race
4:48 pm
kje
20 left... listing so I can take a nap ; )
4:49 pm

Actually, she said the Jew should go home to Poland and Germany. Really?

7:43 pm

well, they got him to throw up, no sign of a balloon, so probably he didn't eat it. We'll keep an eye on him but he should be fine

how did your saturday go?
9:19 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
not too bad, saturdays i usually hit garage sales hunting for books (i'm an independent used-book dealer) and i bought a few nice ones today, so, yeah, pooped
9:20 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
my plan was to cook some dinner when i got home, but power was out, so i went to a restaurant by myself and hung out, hoping power would be back on when i got home, and hooray, it was
9:20 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
howsabout you?
9:20 pm
TraderKate
sounds like a great day...you were aslking about book stores last week for your mini-roadtrip....
9:21 pm
rocky12
What books did you get
9:21 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yep, bought too many books on that trip, but i'll manage
9:21 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
hell, don't even remember what i bought today, they're still in the car, i was too pooped to unload 'em
9:22 pm
rocky12
Lol i've felt that way before
9:23 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i can tell you what i cataloged today, which are books i bought last week . . .
9:23 pm
TraderKate
ah! much better to let someone else cook for you, after slaving over hot books all day... find anything special in the restaurant or the garage sales?
9:23 pm
rocky12
Sure what books did you get last week
9:25 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
okay, books today: an opinion piece against secession, 1862. autobiography of a not-so-famous unitarian. biography of a nantucket whaling captain.
9:25 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
as for the restaurant, i got some yummy tilapia and read a magazine
9:26 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
(i specialize in history books, as you might have guessed)
9:27 pm
rocky12
How have you been kate and i have never even heard of those books
9:27 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
(actually, those weren't the titles, they were descriptives)
9:28 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
(hmm, now that you mention it, i could write a book and call it autobiography of a not-so-famous unitarian, LOL)
9:28 pm
rocky12
Oh i still probably havent heard of them i'm not very big on history
9:29 pm
rocky12
that would be a funny title of a book
9:29 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
no, i try to find books that people haven't heard of; i like the weird, the unusual, and so on
9:29 pm
rururocks
that's why bdg laughs at my jokes
9:30 pm
rocky12
Oh then you would like me * smiles michivisly*
9:30 pm
TraderKate
the opinion piece against sessession sounds like it could be interesting.. who wrote it?
9:30 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
and i like hanging out with the weird and the unusual, too LOL
9:31 pm
TraderKate
<-----weird, and strange.....or so i'mtold ;)
9:31 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
kate, it was written by Parson Brownlow (William Gannaway Brownlow), a colorful character
9:31 pm
rocky12
I'm very weird and unusual is what peeps tell me
9:32 pm
rururocks
<--perfectly normal and pleasant
9:32 pm

hi ruru :)
love your pleasantries... aka puns ;)
9:33 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
well, in looking him up, and his book, seems there were many editions, and he was a newspaper editor who was rather infamous at the time
9:34 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
and he was also governor of Tennessee at one point
9:34 pm
TraderKate
you're not that far from me gwen, i was thinking of you yesterday when the news was talking about the bankruptcy of detroit...
9:35 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
and you needn't make a pilgrimage to me, i don't have an open shop. but all my inventory can be browsed online, like the shelves of a bookstore, because it is all organized like that on my site
9:35 pm
TraderKate
so, a man of "some importance"... more intruiging all the time!
9:35 pm

aw, gee, thanks, but i had nothing to do with that! LOL

9:38 pm
TraderKate
i will look gwen, one of the many things i have been putting off due to limited computer time, lap top with me on loan again tonight...but fv2 needs attention. it crashed on me earlier, took 1 1/2 hours to get the lappie up and running again :(
... i was only trying to visit a farm to help!
9:39 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
oy! i am too scared to play fv2 since "fv1" is such a time sucker
9:40 pm
joso
Gwen is there a particular part of history you favor?
9:40 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
if you can't find anything you want among my books, check out tomfolio.com, which is a little cooperative of little independent used-bookdealers like me
9:41 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
joso, not really. well, i like liberal religious history, and i like those books that are the history of just one little town . . .
9:41 pm
welki
gwen, i went to your sight and see you have a section on folk songs, and that you have some 'sing out' literature. i have a small stack of sing out magazines. they were given to me by my high school librarian (because she was going to throw them out) - would you like them?
9:41 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
hi welki
9:41 pm
welki
and i went to your site, too :)
9:41 pm
TraderKate
i thought if i keep it to a minimum... only adding neighbours as required to expand (learned that from fv 1)... but it is strange, even at the internert cafe, fv is laboriously slow....and fv2 is not much better (even though i have almost nothing on my farm... level (7?) yet it crashed when i wnt to visit one of my 8 neighbours...that's it - 8!
9:41 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i have a ton of sing outs -- can you tell me what years (or what decade) yours are from?
9:42 pm
welki
sure - hang on
9:43 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i don't wish to breach the anti-farmville protocal in here, but, yes, farmville crashes a lot, you just have to accept it. i've tried everything, and a friend of mine who's a technogeek did too, and we oculd find to solution
9:43 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
(could find no solution)
9:43 pm
TraderKate
hi joso and welki :)
9:44 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i have something like 225 neighbors, but only about 15 who are actually still playing
9:44 pm
joso
not so much an era, ever since playing civilization I've been fascinated by the progress of mankinds tech and institutions, also love the odd quirks of WWII.
9:44 pm
welki
ha - a very small stack! i guess the ones that were borrowed were never returned. I could only find five (one is in very poor condition) - they're all from prime time - 1966
9:45 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yes, i do pick up books on the history of technlogy when i find them
9:45 pm
welki
(they are stamped 'library" + my high school name on the front, if that matters)
9:45 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
welki, heck, yes, i would be delighted to get them. how much are you asking? or are you trying to get rid of them for nothing?
9:46 pm
welki
beats me, gwen - let me see how much postage is to send them to you (canada post is ridiculous)
9:46 pm
TraderKate
even in fv2, on the newer, more high speed internet, it can take 5-8 minutes to go to a neighbour's farm and have it fully load...times 5 neighbours (max. visits?) and then re-load home farm... takes way too long! with my lap top of yore, i figured it was my antiquated lappie, but it's not.. so the question is why do people play?
9:47 pm
welki
omg - tom paxton is just a baby!
9:47 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
the psychological answer is very simple (and the makers of these games know it): once a person has invested their time into making a farm, they don't want to "lose" their investment by giving up the game
9:48 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i started playing fv for one very good reason, my boyfriend would not shut up about it until i agreed to play on the condition that if i started playing, he had to shut up about it
9:48 pm
welki
ohhh - i'll have to read them again first - phil ochs, tom rush, ian and sylvia, richie havens - holy moly! (and a subscription was $5.00/year!)
9:49 pm
TraderKate
so true gwen... we like to keep our possessions, don't we? ... even the irtual ones. i will make a point of visiting fv tomorrow and helping at your farm. i just want to know where the dinos are....
9:49 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
welki, okay, send me an email when you're ready to sell 'em -- my email is on my website gwenfoss.com
9:50 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
kate, i don't have dinos on all my farms, and i believe you can only visit the farm that i last played -- i'm assunming you're aware that there are 13 farms inside the game . . .
9:50 pm
TraderKate
lol,gwen - and is he still your boyfriend?
9:51 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yes, he shut up about it, and he's still my boyfriend, and here's the kicker: he got disgusted and stopped playing 2 years ago (give or take) and i'm still playing
9:51 pm
TraderKate
i knew there was england and fv 2, and an outer space one....celestial(?) that is all i know, i've been away for a very long time.
9:52 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
are we neighbors already? i don't know your facebook name . . .
9:53 pm
TraderKate
how did i know that was coming gwen??? he may have been playing longer, but we play with babblers,; harder to let down someone you "know" than someone you got off an "add me" list in cyber space
9:54 pm
TraderKate
i was gwen, i have been winnonwed form many people's friends list because i was away for so long...kate skinner, fort erie... just look for the bright red sweater- i never changed it
9:54 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
well, he was a very aggressive player, ued to try to get every possible point from everything, used to put his chickens into the chicken coop and take them out again every day (don't remembeer the strategy behind that) . . . so he got pretty frustrated by all the crashing and so forth
9:54 pm
TraderKate
we had that co-op group together....
9:55 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
oh, heck, yeah, i remember visiting your farm until it wouldn't even load anymore. way too stuffed, was my theory LOL
9:55 pm
TraderKate
soo000.... now he plays angry birds? lol...
9:55 pm
TraderKate
that's what people thought, but in fv2 i have nothiing and it still won't go...
9:55 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
my strategy is much less hyperactive: have fun with it, and if you don't get every possible point, who CARES
9:57 pm
TraderKate
one rainy day, i will go and sell most of my stuff that can't be stored, and see what happens....my farm does load but it can take a while.....*cough*
9:57 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yep, he plays angry birds, and lots of other games. i'm not really a gamer: boggle and fv is it
9:57 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yeah, for god's sake, sell the seagulls! lol
9:58 pm
TraderKate
crossy has been talking about a new word game that he thinks is a keeper...
9:58 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i leave "blank space" on my farms and while they hang up and crash, they don't take so long to load on those days when they don't crash . . .
9:59 pm
TraderKate
maybe i'll build an ark out of hay bales... 2 of each type of animal only... and store them in my castle...
but i'm not taking out the hay bales that spell out "zynga sux" though....
9:59 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
earlier today i actually got to three farms before it hung up (oooh and aaahs from the crowd, LOL)
10:00 pm
TraderKate
oooh!!!! ahhhhh! a whole three???? wowza!!!!
10:00 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yes, i LOVE your zynga sux!
10:01 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
it's a free game (unless you volunteer your own money) so i don't complain all that much about how unstable it is
10:01 pm
TraderKate
i was sooo pissed off at them - still am, and never took it out, i'll get rid of it when they get rid of their bugs....
10:02 pm
TraderKate
i have noticed that frontierville has morphed into pioneer trail... but my homestead has been transported there... i may investigate that again. i liked that one more than fv, because it had a few bugs, but never crashed on me....
10:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
hells bells, i forgot to babble
10:03 pm
TraderKate
me too, i must get my head back in the grid, still 34 to go here...
10:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
zynga is just trying to suck money out of us. only we can prevent that LOL
10:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
okay, babbling now . . .
10:04 pm
TraderKate
i never give games real money - hell, i don't even spen the farm cash.....just hoard it ;)

been browsing your booksite Gwen. most categories have 5 or 6 books, some 1 or 2, then there is the erotica section. Don't now why so many people try to repress sex, obviously humanity has a strong too strong an interest for it to be quelled.

11:01 pm
TraderKate
ty gwen, keep trying my monkey on it, but nothing.. may have to go to morewords....
11:02 pm
TraderKate
saved by a clue!!!!!!! yeah gwen, my he 4/5 of the day :)
11:02 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he7: h + greek letter (3 letters) + the victorian *** (another word for a long time, not age)
11:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
not sure that's such a great clue, i'll keep working on it lol
11:03 pm
TraderKate
scoooop! ty!
11:03 pm
TraderKate
sometimes there is no "clever clue"...
11:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he7 (according to dict): "a highly cultured courtesan or concubine, especially in ancient Greece"
11:04 pm
TraderKate
so the back of the clue should be "greek age"?
11:05 pm
TraderKate
the ro 6/18 has me stumped, any hints please?
bye peach :)
11:06 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
