12:30 am

jillibus

gnight ruru -- you didn't have to run away from me!

12:30 am

TraderKate

he had a busy day today jill.. tied up (hahah) with realtors etc.

12:31 am

jillibus

Kate, my Babble defaults to IE, much against my will, and nobody knows how to change that. I NEVER use IE!

12:31 am

jillibus

Realtors? Why?

12:32 am

TraderKate

huh! i have an annoying pop up that always asks me to make ie my default... bloody pain!

12:33 am

TraderKate

looking at buying a new house... prior to maybe getting a new dog...he mentioned that he was very tired, even said he may not make it to the flip....such a soldier!

12:33 am

jillibus

well! Busy ruru!

12:34 am

TraderKate

perhaps if you un-install firefox, then re-install? there may be a "fine print box" you missed that keeps you reverting to ie?

12:35 am

TraderKate

i should leave off babble for the night, it's very late here....

12:36 am

jillibus

it's only Babble Expert that goes to IE.

12:37 am

TraderKate

hae you tried to get babble expert again? perhaps you have an older version?

12:38 am

jillibus

I have the latest version, I believe -- Beta V12

12:40 am

TraderKate

that soounds right...it's what ive got at the top of my screen...don't know what to suggest. gotta be some setting on your computer for defaults?

12:42 am

12:42 am

jillibus

as big as the new prince? 8 lbs 6 oz.

12:43 am

TraderKate

yeah rose!!!! i had an e-mail today...i bet she's excited and EXHAUSTED....

12:43 am

jillibus

I'll try Lickety.

12:43 am

puglet

did he come before or after the royal baby

12:44 am

TraderKate

the e-mail.....
3rd grandkiddie born 1930, 23/07/13...12lbs

12:44 am

flosey

Kate was up and out the hospital very quickly

12:44 am

TraderKate

12:45 am

puglet

thats a big boy!

12:45 am

flosey

NO thanks

12:45 am

jillibus

12 lbs!!! Of course, being in Oz the 23rd might be the 22nd here and in the UK

12:45 am

puglet

shes such a pretty girl--have they gave out his name yet

12:46 am

jillibus

not yet, pug -- William said they haven't decided yet.

12:46 am

TraderKate

she was, i think we eill hear later that she had a bit of trouble.. or the baby did... 4 hrs between delivery and announcement....and possibility of a second night in hospital. she had a bigger "ex-baby belly" than i thought she would. knid of thought she'd be one of those moms that came out of the hospital wearing her pre-pregnancy clothing like nothing had happened.

12:48 am

TraderKate

7:30 p.m. in oz is 7:30, 8:30 or 9:30 eastern time... forget which time zone she is in.. they have 3

12:54 am

TraderKate

I believe the name of the baby is
Simon... the e-mail was quick and a bit cryptic... hte other name mentioned may have been the fmily name, so i don't post it...

12:54 am

flosey

yes, but there's another name before that, an unusual name

12:54 am

TraderKate

i'm sure she was screaming "get that thing out of me"!!!! gawd....

12:55 am

puglet

If I remember I think it was Blaxon or something like that

12:55 am

TraderKate

it may be the family name flo... doesn't really sound like a christian name.. but again, this is OZ.....

12:55 am

flosey

true

12:55 am

jillibus

12:56 am

Biltong

m9f9l

Hmm.. drum solo.

2:36 am

puglet

Iam not stuck on one type of music--if I like a song I like it

2:37 am

m9f9l

exactly

2:37 am

puglet

I will say Iam not into really hard rock

2:37 am

m9f9l

This for sure is not Jeanette Macdonald and Nelson Eddy though!LOL

2:37 am

m9f9l

We rock a lot at our house.LOL

2:38 am

m9f9l

But no screamo. OR rap

2:39 am

puglet

I like Gaga and others and some rap but I dont really care for some of the wording in some rap music

2:39 am

puglet

nothing like cranking up the stereo while house cleaning-lol

2:39 am

m9f9l

Hmm Bobby Darin also did this song.

2:40 am

Biltong

m9f9l

Bye Bilt

2:41 am

puglet

I found a cd on sale at walmart of Kc and the sunshine band--nice cd for 5.$

2:42 am

m9f9l

What fun!! And is that the way (uh huh uh huh) you like it?

2:44 am

puglet

I had forgotten those songs until it refreshed my memories---lol yep thats the way I like it and I can shake my booty while cleaning

2:44 am

m9f9l

Ok I found one I like. Still jazzy.. but the melody still shines. Helen Merill

2:44 am

m9f9l

Well sure, now you have your boogie man

2:45 am

m9f9l

Now you need Peaches and Herb so you can shake your groove thing too!

2:45 am

puglet

nothing like the oldies!

2:45 am

puglet

maybe one day I will find them in the discount rack--lol

2:47 am

m9f9l

Oh, now I've found it the way I wanted to hear it.. Mario Lanza for the win! LOL

2:47 am

m9f9l

He does his vowels strangely at times.

2:48 am

m9f9l

OOhhhh.. he does "one alone" too. I guess I'm in a Romberg mood

2:48 am

m9f9l

When Lanza sings "hell" it sounds like "hail"

2:49 am

puglet

it seems so but its nice you are enjoying your morning

2:51 am

m9f9l

nope.. couldn't handle his "one alone" going to listen to Nelson Eddy :-)

2:51 am

m9f9l

If I could combine the two.. I think that would be just about right.

2:51 am

puglet

3:11 am

Dachef

oh, you mean mr deeds? But that isn't in the grid...?!?!? Confusion reigns. Or maybe I've done that thing again where I think I'm awake and playing babble but really I'm running through the mall in my pants screaming about the coming of the Great Blue Aardvark.

3:11 am

sprite

hiya pug :D Thanks for your sweet email. You look awesome with your icon!

m9f9l

at least you're in your pants!

3:13 am

sprite

the Aardvark though is nekkid

3:13 am

Dachef

sorry - US/UK semantics. In English: pants=underpants.

3:13 am

m9f9l

Is it Cerebus the Aardvark?

3:14 am

m9f9l

He wore clothes sometimes. Or at least a powdered wig.

3:14 am

sprite

even underpants must be a consolation when running through the mall, grin

3:14 am

m9f9l

Ah. underwear. Or for women panties.

3:15 am

m9f9l

I suppose you say slacks or jeans? for pants?

3:15 am

m9f9l

or briefs. Or skivvies..

3:15 am

m9f9l

or...

3:15 am

sprite

trousers, maybe?

3:15 am

Dachef

No, we use the English word: trousers.

3:15 am

m9f9l

for under garments

3:15 am

m9f9l

oohh trousers. That's nice and formal sounding.

3:15 am

sprite

a pair of trousers, as my teacher english would have corrected me... a pair of glasses... a pair of scissors.... a pair!

3:15 am

gapeach

Please feel free to clue any mi7-409 and mi7-36...they would be greatly appreciated.

3:17 am

gapeach

I do believe I'm going a bit batty here. Sleep deprivation.....

3:17 am

sprite

he taught us many things that were no longer true, grin. He also claimed in English it was not allowed to say "I have an umbrella', you always had to say "I have got an umbrella'

3:17 am

sprite

I have one that means you clock something wrong

3:18 am

Dachef

sprite: nonsense. Even the worst kind of pedant would not pull you up on that. And I'm a fully paid up member of the pedant society.

3:18 am

3:18 am

puglet

3:18 am

gapeach

Oh, sprite, I have that one, thanks so much.

rubyfoo

or even Tim!

4:26 am

sprite

Rob is doing very well, he just left for a short visit at work! Not working, mi4, just to say hello and keep in touch. Tim is being incredible. Helpful, social, all one could wish for.

4:27 am

rubyfoo

that is wonderful news, sprite. And how are you doing? Are you sleeping?

4:28 am

sprite

still not doing great, but I can't really say which part is reaction and which is just the terrible heat, grin. We are all apathic here. I moved the fan closer to my bed last night and did sleep a bit.

4:29 am

4:32 am

swmbo

:) Hi! Can I ask: what is the PB?

4:33 am

sprite

hiya swmbo, it is short for Penalty Box, the virtual place you go when you type a grid word in the chat.

4:33 am

rubyfoo

it's where you "go" if you mistakenly type a word in the chat

4:33 am

sprite

that and more can be found in the babble idiom list in my profile too

4:34 am

sprite

best place in babble, btw... always stocked with goodies.

4:34 am

swmbo

OK, thanks :)

4:35 am

rubyfoo

Hello ruby. What might osso bucco be?

6:05 am

carleekat

hi ruby

6:06 am

Biltong

Hi carlee

6:06 am

rubyfoo

it's the inexpensive cut of veal around the big marrow bone. It's one of the few dishes that the local Italian makes very well and he makes it just for us!

6:06 am

carleekat

hi bil :)

6:06 am

rubyfoo

anything is better than cooking 3 meals/day

6:07 am

rubyfoo

and since my husband is anti-fat, I get to eat all 4 marrow bones!

6:07 am

Biltong

Sounds good ruby. I agree, especially when it is so hot.

6:08 am

rubyfoo

welcome back, bichon

8:52 am

bichon

Annie, what do you think about the Anthony Weiner situation. Should he drop out of the race?

8:52 am

hurshy

why would he drop out? just cause he's behind now?

8:53 am

hego

No, he got caught agin

8:53 am

crosshair

good morning everyone:))

8:53 am

bichon

Have you not read the latest news about him hurshy?

8:53 am

hego

Hi Crossy.

8:53 am

hurshy

WHAT?

8:53 am

hurshy

AGAIN?

8:53 am

hurshy

what a DOOF!

8:53 am

hego

big doof

8:54 am

hurshy

well WHEN did the new things happen?

8:54 am

Anniebrook

bichon, what a situation...he texted naked explicit photos after he left his post as congressman. He did it again. His wife is standing by him.

8:54 am

hego

I heard yesterday.

8:54 am

bichon

yesterday

8:55 am

hego

God bless her, is all I can say.

8:55 am

bichon

I think his wife learned it from Hilary Clinton, her best buddy

8:55 am

hurshy

no but i mean, when did he do them

8:55 am

Anniebrook

he left in 2011, did it again in 2012 after he was in rehab.

8:55 am

jessmom

his statement is that he warned everyone that more stuff could/would come out. Not sure what the woman says as far as dates of the new pics

8:55 am

hego

am 7 anyone?

8:55 am

hurshy

am7 peaceable relations

8:56 am

bichon

I gues if Sanford from SC could get elected again, why not Weiner

8:56 am

hego

ty

8:56 am

hurshy

sanford *shudder*

8:56 am

Anniebrook

He was a decent congressman but??? I shudder at Sanford too, what a creep

8:56 am

hurshy

and what about this san diego guy?

8:56 am

hurshy

ugh

8:57 am

bichon

not up on the San Diego guy

8:57 am

Anniebrook

san diego guy?

8:57 am

bichon

I really don't know about his record in Congress.

8:57 am

Anniebrook

there was something about the governor from Va.

8:57 am

hurshy

mayor - filner - sexual harasser as it turns out

8:58 am

hurshy

what is it with politicians? i HOPE they are disproportionately deviant cause i would hate to think this is this common in the rest of the population.

8:58 am

bichon

I think Obama is a straight arrow

8:58 am

hego

they are mostly men.

8:59 am

hego

power corrupts, etc

8:59 am

crosshair

power corrupts.absolute power corrupts absolutely.

8:59 am

crosshair

:)

8:59 am

hego

right

9:00 am

Anniebrook

I am sure the Reps. are following Pres. Obama looking and looking. He is a straight arrow and a fine man.

9:00 am

hurshy

but

9:00 am

crosshair

give someone a hammer and they will want a nail to pound with it

9:00 am

crosshair

personally i like obama

9:00 am

hurshy

i think the original idea of power corrupts was that you would abuse the power for ordinary corruption. why the so much sexual deviance seems like possibly somewhat of a separate question.

9:01 am

Anniebrook

What about Eliot Spitzer (running for comptroller of NY). He had to leave the governorship because he was cavorting with prostittutes and now he is also back running for comptroller.

9:02 am

hurshy

spitzer just seems like an all around creep

9:02 am

bichon

Yes, and Spitzer's opponent is really pissed off

9:03 am

Anniebrook

bichon, Spitzer came in almost at the last minute

9:03 am

Anniebrook

they are all creeps if this is how they behave in public office

9:03 am

hurshy

but it sounds like NYers may be figuring they are better off with the devil they know

9:04 am

Judi

That's that! Fireworks!

9:04 am

Anniebrook

Spitzer was once called The Sheriff of Wall Street but he is a very vindictive man

9:04 am

yaa for judi!!

9:06 am

hego

Hmmm......

9:06 am

hurshy

i think it's more related to closeness but, yeah. think of that song from mary poppins - step ** ****

9:07 am

hego

yes, the French word.

first

10:48 am

thing cost 450 at the time.now you can get a nook glow for 70 dollars lol

10:49 am

lbdawger

i'm pretty good at picking up spoken languages, but writing it is another thing. I'd do okay in an immersion program, think I need to travel...a lot! :)

10:49 am

lbdawger

i remember when the sony's came out. they were quite the rage. and very spendy!

10:51 am

crosshair

yes,there was some complaint because of the 3 screen layers.you had one for the e-ink,one for the touch screen and one for the innovative side lighting and many complained about the matte finish it gave to the lettering and as a result they were not maufactured for too long,about 6 months and they were discontinued

10:51 am

crosshair

but my better half loves it

10:56 am

crosshair

as far as i know,sony still make good ereaders but the B&N nook stole my heart 3 years ago

10:59 am

crosshair

sadly in the last year sales of nooks have dropped some 25% due to all the tablet choices we have now like the great nexus 7 and the like.the word is e-readers from B&N will not continue past jan 2014;(( so if you want a nice nook glow,get one now

11:45 am

lbdawger

that could also be due to B&N having some financial issues...just a rumour i heard.

11:50 am

Does anyone have a kindle HD? i am not able to charge mine anymore. Any suggestions?

11:51 am

Marjetta

I have a Kindle HD, you may need to change the cord. They tend to get kinks in them and die.

11:52 am

12:24 pm

Tink, if the issue is not the cord, then it's the battery. I would contact Amazon Customer Service. They are very helpful.

12:25 pm

toadandtoadette

ty

12:26 pm

toadandtoadette

Tink call them, it's probably the port is loose so you need a new one. It happened to mine (it's not an HD though). They sent me a replacement. It just happened to my husbands recently but we haven't called yet. The port on the kind for charging gets loose. They really need to figure out a solution to this because it happens a lot

who wrote the Book of Love?

3:09 pm

MollyL

Prince Cameron Of Cambridge. Sounds like a Monty Python name.

3:10 pm

lilliann

Apart from Scream, they are the only horror films i watch MM

3:10 pm

periwinkle

hi all.

3:10 pm

periwinkle

ivesy, I like the old movies too. and I do not like remakes.

3:11 pm

lilliann

I want to see the new Sandra Bullock film, i think it's out on the 31st of July here

3:11 pm

lilliann

I've also promised the bairn that i will take her to see despicable me2

3:12 pm

periwinkle

they trired to remake one of my favorite movies "Swept Away" with Madonna no less. Ugh!

3:12 pm

lilliann

U've never heard of that film Peri and hi :)

3:12 pm

lilliann

*I've never heard

3:14 pm

movieman

I'm waiting to see 'Kick'Ass 2' and 'The Hobbit'

3:15 pm

lilliann

si6 is a new one for me, i'll probably forget it :)

3:15 pm

lilliann

I've never seen Kickass MM but i have read 'The Hobbit' so would probably see the film

3:16 pm

MollyL

Remakes always flop. I don't know why Hollywood keeps making them.

3:17 pm

periwinkle

indeed, Molls

3:19 pm

lilliann

I know i don't like majority of the remakes i've seen but with alot of films we know because they have been remade, digitalised, the younger people of today love them

3:19 pm

lilliann

I like the original Star Wars, but the bairn likes the new ones

3:21 pm

lilliann

They weren't a flop!

3:22 pm

periwinkle

bl

3:22 pm

lilliann

It's like Planet of the Apes.How many times are they going to remake that film??

3:28 pm

bichon

I just didn't get that one Lili. Got only part way through.

3:30 pm

bichon

But again, I couldn't get into "Breaking Bad"

3:31 pm

hego

Breaking Bad, not for everyone. But amazing.

3:32 pm

helenkeller

Hey everyone

3:32 pm

bichon

hi helen

3:32 pm

hego

Hi Helen

3:32 pm

hego

Very confusing. That's my real name.

3:33 pm

lilliann

Hi Bichon,Hego and helen, sorry, i was away watering my plants.i must admit planet of the Apes is a hard film to get into, not my type of film Bichon

3:34 pm

helenkeller

Peri, did you know that the actress who played the lead in Swept Away died this year? I, too, loved that movie and, like you, wanted to vomit watching the re-make!

3:39 pm

lilliann

I've just seen Swept Away on wikipedia, but it was the Madonna film and i think i've seen it.It sounded very familiar anyway

3:41 pm

lilliann

It's like they want to remake Dirty Dancing.It will never be as good as the original, and apparently, that was supposed to be a flop and they were really surprised how well it did.

3:43 pm

MollyL

I consider a re-make of Dirty Dancing a sacrilege.

3:44 pm

MollyL

And an insult to the memory of Patrick Swayze.

3:45 pm

hego

I agree Molly

3:46 pm

lilliann

That's exactly what i think on both counts Molly. I loved that film, and sadly i know all the words and it is the only music that my husband will dance to, well, bump and grind to (actually, he holds me and sits me on his thigh and shakes me a bit..lol) :D

3:47 pm

hego

sounds very erotic, Lill. lol

3:49 pm

MollyL

<---Afraid of what L might post next. *Covers eyes*

3:49 pm

hego

:)

3:51 pm

lilliann

as erotic as man with no rhythm built like a brick shed and a woman half his size with no balance being thrown about like a rag doll....NOT sexy but we like it lol

3:51 pm

hego

Sounds a little sexy to me. ;)

3:52 pm

hego

And fun.

3:54 pm

lilliann

it is fun and makes me dizzy but it's the only dancing we can do, apart from when he picks me up and does a slow dance.that's romantic, it's just a shame he's not here very often and that we don't get to dance much.

3:55 pm

lilliann

He's not a big dancer though, so when we do get a slow dance it means everything :)

4:02 pm

MollyL

L steams up the chat with her sex talk.
: P

4:06 pm

lilliann

Aye, it's as steamy as a hot cup of coffee :D

4:09 pm

Soodle

Grumbles..... I always miss the best bits..... Hello all! :-)

4:10 pm

lilliann

Hi Soodles :)

4:11 pm

Soodle

Hi Lill! Between Dirty Dancing & ketching up, you & your man clearly make the most of your time together! ;-)

4:13 pm

lilliann

Cutching up and that is not sex but cuddling. we haven't dirty danced for a long time sadly:(

4:14 pm

lilliann

when he use to be home every weekend and we went to our local working mans' club when they had bands on, and if they played dirty dancing we'd be up h

4:14 pm

Soodle

Doh! I couldn't remember the word 'cutch'. Sorry.

4:14 pm

lilliann

oops, we'd be up there :)

4:15 pm

lilliann

np Soodle, i was having visions of him poring ketchup all over me lol...not a good vision

4:15 pm

Soodle

4:16 pm

4:37 pm

rubyfoo

boy I always miss the good parts! lilliann, you devil! Maybe e hould write "the bok" ABOUT HER, mOLLY

4:37 pm

lilliann

I remember certain things but not all.i don't know why.someone can phone me and a minute later i don't remember there name or where they are calling from, the same as when the bairn speaks at times and when my husband tells me he as told me numerous times and i also forget what i've said to others, so no it isn't okay.

4:37 pm

bichon

How did he get to be his age and not have to have it taken out?

4:38 pm

bichon

Lili, we all have our senior moments

4:38 pm

rubyfoo

I only had two wisdom teeth and they're still in olay and working

4:39 pm

lilliann

It could be the same reason why i have 2 baby teeth when i', 44 Bichon :)

4:39 pm

bichon

Usually they take them all out at once. Sooner or later they're going to have cavities

4:39 pm

rubyfoo

I've talked DH into writig down what he can remember and using index card o the morie can be sorted later

4:39 pm

rubyfoo

Maybe it will help him as he keepws beatig himself up over his regrt

4:39 pm

MollyL

I didn't have all mine out at once.

4:41 pm

lilliann

Hi Ruby :) I'm suppose to write things down, when i remember i do but then forget where i've put them..lol

4:41 pm

MollyL

Sorry to hear that Ruby. Regret is a difficult thing to deal with, late in life.

4:41 pm

bichon

I can't imagine having to go through that again

4:41 pm

MollyL

You need a notebook, L.

4:42 pm

That's a good idea Ruby, or he could tell you and you could write it when he's not upto it, but saying that when he is, it'll be something he could do himself

4:42 pm

MollyL

Whoo hoo! Party at Grappa Girl's house!

4:42 pm

bichon

I have a pretty good memory, not great, but okay for the late 60's. My husband, can remember what he had for sessert 10 years ago

4:42 pm

rubyfoo

Do you think index cards are a good idea for sorting later a his memories come out out of order

4:43 pm

lilliann

i do Molly, but as i've said either i forget to write in it or misplace it :)

4:43 pm

bichon

4:44 pm

lilliann

That's the thing Bichon, i can remember certain things but not alot.people will say to me'remember this and i can't but i'll say yes so i'm not embarrassed about it

4:45 pm

uusue2

hi ruby!

4:46 pm

uusue2

sorry, son came in to whine a bit (he gets depressed sometimes)

4:46 pm

rubyfoo

I remeber too uch sometimes, even the bad and terrile tuff but overall volume

4:46 pm

rubyfoo

4:46 pm

MollyL

Poor Sue, two whining men to deal with. Someone fix that woman a drink.

4:46 pm

lilliann

i did have a few note pads around but i don't know where any of them are now, saying that the bairn tends to take one and write or draw pictures in it.it's like i did have 100 pens around the house in different rooms with paper, now i have 1 pen in the lounge and i just bought that the other day!!

4:46 pm

rubyfoo

hah, put the light on so no more typos

4:46 pm

uusue2

Frank has been procrastinating taking care of his wisdom teeth for about 30 years now, but I wasn't around for most of that - now I 'm making him take care of himself

4:46 pm

lilliann

I have a pen fairy in this house :D

4:47 pm

uusue2

haha, I think I have one of those too, lilli

4:47 pm

rubyfoo

what's a pen fairy?

4:47 pm

uusue2

the one that hides all the pens, ruby

4:47 pm

MollyL

I don't know Ruby. Fairies usually bring things, not take them away.

4:47 pm

rubyfoo

aaah

4:48 pm

MollyL

L, one notebook and one pen that stay in the same place all the time.

4:48 pm

MollyL

Off limits to doodling girl child.

4:48 pm

lilliann

mmm,then i'd have to pad lock a pad and pen Molly :0

4:49 pm

MollyL

That is too bad. She is old enough to understand why those things are not for her.

4:49 pm

rubyfoo

I place pens all over, strategically near piÃ¨ces of paper. The house may look mesy but stuff get writte down

4:49 pm

kje

1st de6?

4:49 pm

uusue2

I have pen amnesia - I pick up a pen and when I am done with it I stop thinking about it, just wind up putting it down anywhere, so I wind up with 15 pens in my purse and none on my desk, or vice versa

4:49 pm

bichon

Same with my dental floss

4:50 pm

rubyfoo

nobody goes in my bathroom except the housekeeper!

4:50 pm

lilliann

But that's no good to me when i'm downstairs and can't get up because i'm bad, which is why i had one in every room, because i could remember something in one room and as soon as i leave it to go in4 another i forget what i was going to write down.that's why at times here i don't speak because i forget a word and get embarrassed

4:50 pm

Hi Babblers, Can anyone tell me how often the rankings are updated? I'm most interested in the "Who's Hot" rankings.I have been completing the puzzles for many days but my ranking hasn't changed - it used to , but has stopped. And no - I'm not at the maximum 1,030.

ty Molly and Smd

8:14 pm

Jillyjill

((neil))) long time no see, how are you?

8:14 pm

Jillyjill

dofith, I have seen the same thing with my stats, it started with the babble update a few months ago. Decided not to even look at stats and just enjoy babbling

8:15 pm

negativeneil

Hey, I'm well thanks Jilly. And you?

8:15 pm

dan2bit

firewords! tx Molly & Smd & all cluers - mi7 fabricated poorly was my last

8:16 pm

dofith

Ok - thanks for that, Jill.

8:16 pm

Jillyjill

Work has been busy,, but need the $$ so it's all good~

8:16 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT dan2!!

8:16 pm

negativeneil

I never look at stats... don't get much time for this anymore so my rating's probably plummeted.

8:16 pm

negativeneil

Same here, Jilly. But it's all good. :)

8:17 pm

Jillyjill

Yup! We are building a new deck, new floors in 3 rooms and a new storage shed...$$$

8:18 pm

negativeneil

Yeah. That will cost a lot.

8:19 pm

dofith

I was getting so close to the maximum - quite exciting! (And yes, it's sad when one gets excited over such things!) I feel I've been cheated!

8:20 pm

Marc Freeman

Could I get a clue for mo8/45, the first one, please?

8:20 pm

Jillyjill

Our deck is on the south side and gets beat to death by sun and weather, have put in two decks in 24 years, so now we are going for a composite deck $7,000 (it'g a big deck)

8:20 pm

negativeneil

Oh that will be nice Jilly.

8:22 pm

penquis

mo + latin for "that is" + men's neckwear (plural)....not my clue...someone else gave it earlier

8:22 pm

Jillyjill

mo8= sounds french for self+mens neck wear

8:23 pm

saanichcat

Marc - first three letters french for "me"; plus vowel; plus many mens neckwear

8:24 pm

dofith

One is reminded off our differences - here, one aims for facing north to get the winter sun. Everything on the south side is permanently gloomy!

8:24 pm

negativeneil

Thanks saanichcat... new one to me.

8:25 pm

negativeneil

Yeah dofith... opposite hemisphere.

8:25 pm

saanichcat

it pops up a few times a year neil

8:26 pm

negativeneil

Must be the other few times I'm not here. :P

8:27 pm

dofith

And here in the west, the sun sets over the ocean which most of Oz's population don't experience.

8:27 pm

dofith

Thanks and "bye - happy babblin g, everyone.

8:45 pm

negativeneil

You haven't?

8:46 pm

negativeneil

8:46 pm

negativeneil

That's unheard of! What about... dart!?

8:47 pm

rururocks

no.. i just haven't been chatting all the time.. a lot less than normal.. probably better for some people with my bad jokes and all

8:47 pm

rururocks

Dart is being a punk and won't let me catch him :D

8:47 pm

negativeneil

Aww no. Hate to admit it but I'd miss your horrible puns. Jeez. What am I saying? :P

8:48 pm

Haha.

Hi welki.

9:00 pm

Dorens

heigh ho

9:01 pm

Dorens

had incredibly good dinner tonight at Lincoln Ristorante (at Lincoln Center)/ feeling fat and happy

9:02 pm

rururocks

that sounds nice Doren

9:02 pm

rururocks

I had left overs .. :D

9:02 pm

Dorens

my ex sister in law.. (i call her my sister out-law)

9:03 pm

rururocks

oh.. I gotta use that one soon

9:03 pm

Dorens

been exercising like crazy lately and finally lost a few pounds.. i'm sure i'll see them on the scale tomorrow. And our annual family martha's vineyard pilgrammage begins on saturday... much eating will occur!!

9:04 pm

welki

what did you have, doren? going to look at the menu

9:05 pm

Dorens

a ridiculously good smoked salmon in combination with marcona almonds and baby cauliflower.. sounds nuts i know. and then pasta with veal and mushroom ragu

9:05 pm

welki

ohhh, it looks wonderful

9:05 pm

Dorens

they gave us chicken liver mousse crostini first.. and dessert was insane

9:05 pm

rururocks

I have lost some weight.. now trying to keep it off

9:05 pm

Dorens

don't think of going to this place to eat ru!

9:05 pm

rururocks

National Ice Cream day didn't help

9:06 pm

rururocks

I had to do my civic duty :D

9:06 pm

rururocks

crostini sounds good

9:06 pm

rururocks

salmon I could skip

9:08 pm

welki

the desserts sounds great - which one did you have? *living vicariously through doren's dining experience*

9:08 pm

Dorens

perfect biscotti with the excellent coffee... some ridiculously good home made candies on a platter just because.. and we split some outrageous dessert with apricots. three layers.. pistachio...

9:09 pm

Dorens

ah but this salmon... i rarely think things taste so good that I deliberately eat slowly to savor the way i did this

9:10 pm

Dorens

just googled the desserts and the one we had (which was top of the dessert menu) isn't there welki, sorry!! come to NY!

9:10 pm

penquis

chicken liver mousse and smoked salmon i could do without....but the desert sounds yummy!

9:10 pm

rururocks

yeah chicken livers are good.. but think about all those chickens that have to give up drinking :D

9:10 pm

welki

i'm in for the whole meal deal :)

9:11 pm

Dorens

i was disappointed though in the waitress, who was very professional, but i had ordered a single glass... then my sister out law who doesn't usually drink, said she would, so the waitress suggested a half bottle... i had already returned the wine list. When we got the bill , we saw that this half bottle was FOUR times the cost of the single glass I had wanted. not right, is it , ru?

9:12 pm

welki

(were you there for the play?)

9:12 pm

Dorens

crushed pistachio on the chicken liver mousse... mmmmm!

9:12 pm

rururocks

that is a tableside Upsell.. Doren.. and yes that is not right

9:13 pm

welki

not play - film. i see 'much ado about nothing' is playing

9:13 pm

Dorens

no, believe it or not.. she just had always wanted to eat there, and i always do what she wants. (I, of course, had wanted to try it too). I will return in September... my cousin is taking me to the opera, I'll take him there!

9:13 pm

welki

write to them, dorens - you'll probably get a comp you can use next time

9:14 pm

Dorens

we went to the NY historical society museum in the afternoon. then walked down there. We enjoy chatting so much, we would talk all through a performance- we only do this once or twice a year.

9:14 pm

Dorens

whaddya think ru? should I write to them? it's not my usual style, but i just might

9:15 pm

welki

if he says anything but, "Hell, Yeah!" I'll bop him on the nose.

9:15 pm

Dorens

The nose! that is the opera i'm seeing in september!

9:15 pm

rururocks

I would.. you could tell them you had a wonderful meal.. but you were steamrolled into an expensive bottle of wine that you really didn't want. Your sister out law could have had a glass too and saved the $$

9:16 pm

Dorens

okay good. To whom do i address this letter?

9:16 pm

welki

who's got his nose? reminds me of danny kaye's collection of stories - one was, 'who's got my hairy toe?"

9:17 pm

rururocks

General Manager

9:17 pm

Dorens

saw kevin kline in much ado about nothing.. shakespeare in the park in 1988.. fantastic (of course)

9:17 pm

penquis

ah....The Nose....seeing that in the fall, i think, via the Met's HD Live series...

9:17 pm

welki

Paolo Novello is the restaurant manager - Aaron Von Rock is the wine manager - contact info on their website

9:17 pm

Dorens

ok. i will do this. i'm sure they WILL at least offer me a free glass of nine, right?

9:18 pm

rururocks

at least.. let them know you're coming back because the food was so good

9:18 pm

rururocks

they might comp you the entire meal if they know their stuff

9:18 pm

Dorens

yes pen.. i'll be there sept 28th.. if that's the one they televise, look for me way up top!!

9:19 pm

rururocks

that's what I would do if I were the manager

9:19 pm

penquis

i will!

9:19 pm

welki

no need to bop him on the nose :)

9:19 pm

Dorens

well you know i'll keep you posted, ru and welkil

9:20 pm

Dorens

ru, is email okay or do these things get done the old-fashioned way? i do have a stamp or two around here somewhere

9:20 pm

rururocks

*note to self.. when Doren orders wine at lunch.. don't say anything*

9:20 pm

rururocks

I'd send a hand written note

9:20 pm

Dorens

that's what I thought. i have loads of stationery from the olden days, too

9:21 pm

rururocks

he/she will be sure to read it

9:21 pm

Dorens

ru,i would never order wine without your advice if you are around!!! no babbler would, would they?

9:21 pm

welki

the olden days! lol - get out the quill and inkwell

9:21 pm

rururocks

emails get deleted

9:22 pm

welki

i would. mateus.

9:22 pm

rururocks

that depends doren.. you know your stuff

9:22 pm

Dorens

they're just so much easier to send... i could do it right now.. how likely am I to jump up now and get the stationery??

9:22 pm

rururocks

*welki is hopeless*

9:23 pm

rururocks

the effort is what will have the effect Doren

9:23 pm

welki

it's true, i'm hopeless. but untrue that i'd order mateus. molly reminded me about md 20/20

9:23 pm

Dorens

hey ru, Rachel has decided she likes lambruscos. I just remember them from the 60's Cella (which i did drink sometimes) and RIunite which i thought was terrible even back then

9:23 pm

rururocks

there's better ones now in the market

9:23 pm

Dorens

mad dog 20/20??? the ghetto rotgut???

9:23 pm

MollyL

I second the motion for a hand-written note. They mean more.

9:24 pm

Dorens

recommendations?

9:24 pm

welki

yeah, that's the one

9:24 pm

rururocks

welki likes to order pinut Nowhaaar

9:24 pm

welki

brb - going to celebrate national ice cream day, too

9:24 pm

rururocks

:D

9:24 pm

rururocks

good call welki

9:25 pm

Dorens

of course it WILL be a handwritten note... i'm just bitching about having to get up and find the stationery... and leave the computer.. but as soon as i get my fw, I'll do it!

9:25 pm

rururocks

I don't have any Doren.. I can do some homework

9:26 pm

Dorens

she sent me a link to a times article with recommendations, i can go with them. the only white she likes is vinho verde. which I don't... bringing up a mixed case for the week 0 always fun to pick and then see what we like

9:27 pm

Dorens

jeremy will bring some too.. he has pretty good taste as well

9:29 pm

rururocks

i'll ask my friend at K & L ..he's an expert on Italian wine

9:29 pm

Minveryork

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing

9:29 pm

Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!

9:29 pm

Dorens

ok, thanks ru

9:29 pm

Dorens

and hi min

9:29 pm

rururocks

Rachel would like Dolcetto too I bet

9:30 pm

Dorens

if i tell her you recommended it, she probably will. She liked you

9:30 pm

stidmama

hey all

9:31 pm

Dorens

hi stid.. how goes it?

9:31 pm

rururocks

I just read an article about better Lambruscos coming to the USA than the normal plonk

9:31 pm

stidmama

It goes -- slowly. We are going to have a delay in the permit, so probably won't be able to get the really low interest rate we locked in at the beginning of May.

9:32 pm

stidmama

Oh well, live and learn. Next time I have a question about getting things done I will just ask and do it... and not wait for others.

9:32 pm

Dorens

Cavallotto Dolcetto d'Alba Vigna Scot? that is what my local place offers for $16

9:33 pm

Dorens

oh that is too bad stid.... interest rates were crazy low then

9:33 pm

welki

hi stid - another case of, talk to the manager and see if they can do something for you. exceptional circumstances sometimes warrant exceptions to the rules

9:33 pm

stidmama

are lambruscos a dessert wine? *goes to look it up*

9:34 pm

Dorens

Ruby red at the core with intense purple reflections, this Dolcetto is intense and fruity on the nose, with delicious aromas of wild berries, cherries, red apple, and a slight bitter almond note. Dry and full-bodied on the palate, the Vigna Scot is warm and soft in the mouth, delightfully well balanced. ---sounds like a winner

9:34 pm

Dorens

welki is so wise this evening

9:34 pm

stidmama

am doing now, welki, but the circumstances we face really don't matter much to overworked, understaffed (underpaid) people... I am sure they will all do their best, but since the fault we aren't farther along is partly our own, we will just have to deal with it.

9:34 pm

uusue2

hi all!

9:34 pm

welki

nah - welki is so cheap :)

9:34 pm

stidmama

our contractor is going to try to work his diplomacy tomorrow, but I am not getting my hopes up.

9:35 pm

Minveryork

Hello stidmama!How are you doing today? Welcome to grid

9:35 pm

stidmama

hey min :-D

9:35 pm

welki

take your business to another bank - that'll get their attention

9:35 pm

Minveryork

Hello uusue2! How are you doing today? Welcome to chog.

9:36 pm

stidmama

hey sue

9:36 pm

uusue2

HI doren and stid and welki too!

9:36 pm

stidmama

it's not the bank that is the issue, welki -- they are WONDERFUL (and the reason we are not even farther behind) -- it's the county, and that is really not something I can change...

9:37 pm

welki

just sayin' - banks have more flexibility with interest rates than they'd let you believe

9:38 pm

stidmama

oh, right. :-D once the contract runs out we might have that option. I'll consider it if we need to.

9:38 pm

Minveryork

I am well, but summer school is exhausting. It is over soon.

9:38 pm

uusue2

that's good, min, do you get a break then before the fall?

9:39 pm

10:31 pm

stidmama

thanks also joso!

10:31 pm

I nominate "best naked butt" for Clue of the Day ..

10:36 pm

stidmama

rofl tor!

10:38 pm

stidmama

Ms mastered...

10:38 pm

10:39 pm

stidmama

10:39 pm

uusue2

10:39 pm

stidmama

Ds done

10:41 pm

stidmama

fw

10:41 pm

uusue2

yay stid!

10:42 pm

stidmama

nice to finish, I have been coming in too late while I was traveling. Good to be home, will be reluctant to leave again so soon.

10:42 pm

torgone

Yay stid!

10:42 pm

stidmama

At least Grant is now old enough to man the fort by himself now!

10:43 pm

uusue2

it's nice when they finally get to that point, isn't it, stid?

10:43 pm

stidmama

wow, it really is!

10:44 pm

stidmama

And yet... it also makes me really superfluous most of the time. I am going to need to find a new name, stid"mama" will still be true, but less reflective of my day-to-day realities!

10:44 pm

joso

congrats stid

10:44 pm

abe79

Fireworks!

10:45 pm

abe79

thanks for the clues, everyone!

firefly779

Stiddy!!!

10:49 pm

firefly779

And hello to all the other players tonight ;)

10:49 pm

uusue2

hi firefly!

10:50 pm

uusue2

How are you doing, firefly?

10:51 pm

firefly779

Can't complain too loudly sue ;)

10:52 pm

uusue2

good - I know you were having a pretty hard time there for a while

10:53 pm

stidmama

hey firefly! bye abe, thanks for the help

10:53 pm

firefly779

Still working out the kinks a little - all the updates are in my profile - but I think I'm on the upside now :)

10:53 pm

stidmama

sorry all, watching "America's test kitchen" and it got me researching kitchen gadgets.

10:54 pm

firefly779

Oh stid, just read your profile...

10:55 pm

stidmama

such good news in your profile, firefly. *very happy mama look*

10:55 pm

stidmama

((firefly))) we're all alive, and that is the most important thing

10:55 pm

firefly779

Thank you ;)

10:56 pm

stidmama

it's melting my brain here... I might just drown the computer if I don't find something to cool me down.

10:56 pm

firefly779

So true but I'm so sorry for the losses you still incurred.

10:58 pm

stidmama

thanks firefly, we are pretty grumpy about it a lot of the time, but despite it really there are only a few (1-5%) of the things that we will actually miss. The worst part is the hassle of rebuilding.

10:59 pm

stidmama

and my Lucky. That's actually worse than the rebuilding. Which is pretty annoying.

11:00 pm

stidmama

On the bright side, I finished the grid. Need any clues

11:00 pm

firefly779

I can totally understand the grumpiness and the hassle.

11:01 pm

stidmama

Matthew just got here! Firefly, I know you are enjoying your little ones, but it is SO NICE when the kids are adults and can get themselves to and from on their own. :-) Except he needs us to drive him and his laundry back to the house he is renting this summer...

11:02 pm

firefly779

Lol stid! I'm glad you are enjoying a new chapter of motherhood,;)

11:03 pm

firefly779

I'm not really doing the grid, just came to say hello

11:03 pm

stidmama

me too -- next chapter will include helping my kids get through parenting (but not soon, I hope!)

11:03 pm

stidmama

I am glad you came in tonight.

11:03 pm

firefly779

Me too

11:04 pm

stidmama

I haven't done it yet, firefly, but by tomorrow evening I hope to have a few pictures up from my trip this last weekend with Mother -- we saw three babblers in B.C. (Jillibus, saanichcat and bugsaw)

11:04 pm

firefly779

I love jilli!

11:05 pm

stidmama

she's wonderful, isn't she? She lets us crash in her guest room, which looks out onto her entry garden and everything is so peaceful and nice and relaxing.

11:06 pm

firefly779

Glad you could do a trip! When did you lose your house might I ask? I obviously haven't been here in ages.

11:06 pm

firefly779

Oh wow, what a doll.

11:07 pm

stidmama

March 18, firefly. It was/is pretty devastating.

11:07 pm

stidmama

Just in case it helps you, take a video or photographic inventory (soon!) of every single wall and piece of furniture in your home.

11:07 pm

firefly779

Gasp! My oldest's birthday :(

11:08 pm

stidmama

The one thing that completely vaporized is the one thing I cannot find in ANY of the photos I have access to right now.

11:08 pm

firefly779

I've heard that device, and actually started once but never finished. I will revisit the idea.

11:09 pm

firefly779

Advice, not device

11:09 pm

firefly779

Darn autocorrect

11:09 pm

stidmama

It was a lovely, warm, sunny day here, firefly and I was so looking forward to the rest of that week. Lesson: DO stop and make sure those you love know it. Frequently. Daily. Often. Every chance you get. Grant could have died, he arrived home just after the living room window blew out, and he and the neighbor put out the fire. Smoke damage got to nearly everything. We salvaged only the most important things, which are now in storage after being cleaned in Tacoma.

11:10 pm

stidmama

oh. and save your inventory to the cloud/web or keep it off site somewhere. :-)

11:10 pm

stidmama

I am so grateful he wasn't killed when he went into the house.

11:10 pm

firefly779

Oh stid, heartbreaking. What was the cause?

11:11 pm

firefly779

I'm sure!

11:11 pm

uusue2

((((stid)))) it's going to be hard for quite a while, I think, so sorry that this happened!

11:13 pm

stidmama

right now we think it was my heating pad, firefly. The fire started right next to my chair, where the heating pad was on the floor. We think the "auto-off" switch shorted out at some point. I know it was off in the morning when I left because I actually took the time to be sure. But it was plugged in. I will NEVER have an electric blanket or heating pad again.

11:13 pm

stidmama

But the official report isn't done yet.

11:14 pm

stidmama

The smoke was so toxic, I don't think the critters were even discomfited by the heat later on. It melted some of the light fixtures a couple rooms away. It was an impressive mess.

11:15 pm

firefly779

Oh horror - such a shame! I do hope insurance is helping out.

11:15 pm

stidmama

Oh. And the other thing: spiderwebs survive fire and collect smoke. The walls and ceiling were all festooned with black (think Addams family) tendrils!

11:15 pm

uusue2

well, I am off for the night, poor Frank has to have a wisdom tooth out tomorrow and he is dreading it

11:15 pm

firefly779

Night sue, sorry for Frank!

11:16 pm

stidmama

Insurance is very good -- we have exhausted the
"paying additional living expenses" piece but we were able to pay off the original mortgage and are still awaiting the payment for contents.

11:16 pm

firefly779

Strange about the webs...

11:16 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams sue, and love to Frank. I hope it goes much easier than he anticipates.

11:17 pm

stidmama

I thought so, firefly -- if it had happened in October we would have been set for trick or treaters! *wicked mama grin*

11:17 pm

firefly779

Glad the insurance is working - it's exponentially harder when it isn't.

11:17 pm

stidmama

so true -- I wish your health coverage was as good as our home insurance.

11:18 pm

firefly779

Aha, the humor and wonder amidst the devastation - a good sign of healing!

11:18 pm

firefly779

I wish that too, oh how I do.

11:20 pm

stidmama

Is there any word or progress from the lawyer? I know these things are often very slow.

11:23 pm

TraderKate

11:23 pm

firefly779

We just got a mailing that he and the insurance lawyer are getting a deposition from my Seattle doc in mid August, so settlement seems off the table and perhaps court back on. Who knows though.

11:23 pm

firefly779

Hi TraderKate, nice to meet you

11:24 pm

stidmama

good. I hope there will be progress.

11:24 pm

stidmama

hey kate!

11:24 pm

TraderKate

hi ff :)
read your profile, i wish you well and many more years of happy babbling.. i wont interrupt your caht with stiddie...

11:24 pm

TraderKate

hi stiddie :)
please carry on...

11:25 pm

stidmama

firefly, if my in-laws are over there later this year, where they actually own a place... and IF I can convince Tom to take a long weekend with me, would you like to meet up (on neutral ground)?

11:25 pm

firefly779

No such thing as interrupting, thanks for our consideration though!

11:25 pm

stidmama

kate, interrupt away! firefly is "peeps" like us!

11:26 pm

stidmama

I know you don't like to put your family in harm's way -- I was the same when my boys were little.

11:26 pm

TraderKate

i tlooks like you two have a lot of catching up to do. i'm still lurking trying to finish, but getting very tired

11:26 pm

firefly779

I promise to consider your offer ;)

11:27 pm

stidmama

and fair warning, I made a friend's kid cry earlier this summer when a "stern mama look" happened! LOL

11:27 pm

stidmama

can clue, kate!

11:27 pm

firefly779

Lol stid!

11:27 pm

stidmama

:-D

11:28 pm

TraderKate

thnaks stiddie, still going through lickety.. maybe in a bit? if you 're still here?

11:28 pm

stidmama

if I am still here, have to take matthew home soon I think

11:28 pm

firefly779

I employ the stern mama look all the time - perhaps said child was not used to the look

11:29 pm

TraderKate

kids cry too easily these days i htink... i have a look too -and it does stop people intheir tracks.. but once hte kids ( especially) know you, they learn to stop-look-and listen when the look is thrown... ;)

11:30 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, just zoomin' thru before i conk out for the day

11:30 pm

firefly779

I've caught many a child's eye with my look, strangers to me at stores and whathaveyou, and been successful at quietly chastising them

11:30 pm

stidmama

yes, I think it was just unexpected.

11:30 pm

firefly779
