1:00 am

jillibus

Oh my aching back. Just finished cleaning up after Happy Hour(s) with 6 other peeps, which started at 5:30 and now it's 11 pm. And I spent all day getting stuff ready.

1:00 am

rururocks

ouch.. do you have an abcess

1:00 am

rururocks

?

1:00 am

rururocks

not sure how to spell that actually?

1:00 am

VolleymomDee

Wow, Jili... you must be exhausted. Hope not, ru... didn't think so...

1:00 am

VolleymomDee

abscess, I think

1:01 am

rururocks

ah

1:01 am

jillibus

I yam indeed pooped.

1:01 am

rururocks

did you have cocktails jilli ?

1:01 am

VolleymomDee

Love having folks in, but it IS a lot of work before and after.

1:01 am

jillibus

Poor dee!

1:02 am

rururocks

I made a mexican dinner.. the kitchen is destroyed

1:02 am

VolleymomDee

Yeah... pretty frustrated at this point. I bet, ru... lots of work.

1:02 am

jillibus

right you are, dee. It was easier when I had hubby to help, but...

1:03 am

rururocks

you just need a personal assistant jilli.. as important as you are :D

1:03 am

jillibus

I really don't enjoy cooking and prepping, but I do enjoy the company.

1:04 am

rururocks

I love cooking and prepping

1:04 am

rururocks

I'm cooking for twelve in a couple of weeks

1:04 am

jillibus

I wish I did but I really really don't.

1:04 am

VolleymomDee

What are you fixing, ru?

1:06 am

jillibus

I'm a nervous wreck. I never liked playing "house" as a little girl, or dolls. I enjoyed a chemistry set and books and didn't mind paper dolls and cutting out clothes for them from Vogue and such.

1:06 am

rururocks

Spinach salad with a balsamic shitake mushroom/bacon dressing and crumbled eggs, seared scallops on crispy potatoes with truffle oil, and grilled filet mignon on vegetable compote with mushroom/red wine reduction sauce

1:07 am

rururocks

and lavender ice cream and apple pie

1:07 am

VolleymomDee

LOL, jili... sounds like me as a kid.

1:07 am

jillibus

I'd come too if it didn't make an unlucky thirteen for dinner, ru!

1:07 am

VolleymomDee

YUM, ru!! I have never tasted lavender ice cream... sounds interesting

1:08 am

rururocks

LOL jilli.. you'd never be an unlucky.. at least as far as I'm concerned

1:08 am

VolleymomDee

I could be 14, then, jili!

1:09 am

rururocks

you have to steep the cream and milk in lavender dee and add vanilla beans and then make the ice cream.

1:09 am

jillibus

I played rugger and French Cricket (I was a Brit kid) with the boys, but I skipped rope too with the girls..."I was a Girl Guide. dressed in blue..." or "One, two, buckle my shoe..."

1:09 am

rururocks

you have to get the lavender that isn't poisonoud too

1:09 am

rururocks

1:09 am

jillibus

xx ruru

1:10 am

rururocks

I'm coming to cook you and Flosey dinner next year ..

VolleymomDee

1:10 am

rururocks

rururocks

I'm gonna level the room with the mushroom sauce..it's to die for

1:13 am

VolleymomDee

Interesting. I am surprised that you haven't owned or run a restaurant in your lifetime, ru. You are such a good chef.

1:13 am

rururocks

I couldn't handle the hours dee... chefs work incredibly hard for a living

1:14 am

rururocks

I love cooking for people though

1:14 am

rururocks

I know some chefs that work 90 + hours a week

1:15 am

rururocks

every day.. ten to 12 hours

1:15 am

VolleymomDee

Very true...

1:15 am

rururocks

I couldn't take it

1:16 am

rururocks

7:12 am

grannyrose

scrabs, ends with an e

7:13 am

Scrabbler

OK

7:13 am

Aloyisius

holy cow, I missed the gr5 hug

7:13 am

Scrabbler

Oh, yes, we spray with DEET.

7:13 am

Aloyisius

well, I'm going to use it next time for sure

7:14 am

Aloyisius

I like the herbal lotion form of OFF..

7:14 am

Aloyisius

it has deet in it

7:15 am

Scrabbler

OFF Botanicals is "natural", and I think is DEET-free.

7:15 am

Aloyisius

will check the label.. I know DEET is effective

7:16 am

Scrabbler

Picaridin is a newer bug repellent that is very effective.

7:17 am

Aloyisius

ty, will watch for that.. I love working/being outside, but don't enjoy being chewed up

7:18 am

Aloyisius

now if I could find something that would repel fire ants..

7:18 am

Aloyisius

have so many blisters that when I go for my checkup later, the doc may think I have a rash

7:19 am

jmcnrick

cinnamon. . .ants wont cross it

7:19 am

jmcnrick

hi snuffy

7:19 am

jmcnrick

hi all

7:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi j

7:19 am

grannyrose

they won't cross talcum powder, either. hey ya jmc

7:19 am

Aloyisius

jmc! howdy... so, I should rub cinnamon on? hey, I'll go for it

7:20 am

jmcnrick

i didn't know that granny

7:20 am

jmcnrick

i have a tray covered with cinnamon in which my cat food and water bowls sit and the ants leave them strictly alone. . .

7:20 am

grannyrose

lol, in dry weather it is great outside...

7:21 am

jmcnrick

if a piece falls on the floor the ants cover it. . .

7:21 am

Aloyisius

great to know, jmc!

7:21 am

jmcnrick

think how nice you will smell snuffy

7:21 am

grannyrose

you could also fill the tray with water, and put the bowls in that..

7:21 am

Scrabbler

No, Aloy, I think you can place a ring of cinnamon or other things around your home or location and it keeps the ants away

7:21 am

Aloyisius

lol.. a bit reddish too

7:22 am

Aloyisius

oh rats, was hoping cinnamon would keep the fire ants from stinging

7:22 am

jmcnrick

but the water evaporates or spills and the cinnamon just sits. . . i change it 2 or three times a summer

7:23 am

jmcnrick

well if you keep them away. . . :-)

7:23 am

grannyrose

once, when we had a really bad ant problem, i stood the legs of our table in tins, filled with water. at least we could eat dinner ant-free.

7:23 am

grannyrose

true, jmc, true

7:23 am

candy1

Didn't think it would be allowed. Thanks for the tr6 molly. That's fireworks for me.

11:21 am

hmm. Apparently it's non-proper meaning is a liquid measure of about a quart.

11:22 am

candy1

sigh,i hae a transistor radio.went everywhere with me,big fat single white earbud and took a single square 6 volt.it taught me my first lessons in finance as my allowance was 25 cents a week.that would get me a bag of chips and a bottle of pop a week OR a single radio battery but not both,so i would alternate so i had my music.used to always be the old 1050 chum station out of toronto or trying to pick up wolfman jack at nights when the am band opened up:))

12:35 pm

crosshair

9 volt

12:37 pm

crosshair

i used to collect old pop bottles from the side of the road for their deposit.that got me extra batteries:)

12:38 pm

crosshair

small bottles were two cents,big ones were 5:)

12:53 pm

crosshair

it got so you knew to the minute how many hours of play time was in a single square 9v battery and you would ration yourself to make it last two weeks.if you did well with collecting pop bottles you would have any bonus batteries stacked like bars of gold on your book shelf and use thos for all night music blowouts friday and saturday night when you wee supposed to be sleeping:)

1:20 pm

crosshair

saturday night.homework and chores were done,in your room with a bonus battry in the transistor and a brand new Ray Bradbury from the library sitting on the bookshelf:)) heaven

1:21 pm

1:29 pm

dianedecoder

I see that the conversation had been about radio..... the first radio I remember was a big one, with lovely wood and a mesh front and it ran on a big battery--probably a Delco. Dad could pick up all the baseball games from the states, along with stuff from all over the world.

1:30 pm

dianedecoder

We girls were in deep trouble if we left it on and let the battery run down !!

1:33 pm

hi india

1:34 pm

IndiaJan

Canada day here?

1:35 pm

dianedecoder

I don't know .... plenty of flags in evidence !! I guess because it's a holiday of sorts !

1:36 pm

joso

Growing up in toronto radio ment 1050 chum. that station had a lock on teen life, put out the top 30 list weekly, people answered the phone "i listen to chum" because that was how you could win their contests.

1:38 pm

joso

not canada day, in toronto it's lord simcoe day, lord byng in ottawa, founders of the towns.

1:44 pm

dianedecoder

I think IndiaJan just meant that there were a lot of Canucks chatting at the moment. I don't know what we call this day in Alberta, just the long August weekend I think :-)

1:46 pm

crosshair

indeed joso 1050 chum was king

1:47 pm

crosshair

all the canucks are out to play:)))

1:47 pm

dianedecoder

I see you are a comic book fan, joso. My son in law has a most awesome collection, worth quite a bit of money I think . One of the granddaughters ( his daughter ) loves to attend the Comic Con events when they are held. ( one coming up in Edmonton in September )

1:48 pm

dianedecoder

...with him of course.

1:49 pm

joso

apparently only Ontario and Manitoba do this 'let the municipality name the holiday thing', just a civic holiday for the rest of canada.

1:49 pm

crosshair

i call it crossy peameal bacon for breakfast day

1:51 pm

joso

Actually the values of old comics have dropped drastically, they started reprinting the old books in graphic novel collections and the bottom dropped out of the market.

1:52 pm

dianedecoder

Regardless, they still mean a lot to him and he would never sell them anyway.

1:53 pm

crosshair

same with coins and stamps.economy is tight and all the old hoarded collections are hitting the auctions and flooding the market.the only place we gain is in bullion value because as economy goes to hell people run to precious metals

2:28 pm

2:29 pm

aha! thanks cross! *looking and monkeying*

2:29 pm

2:30 pm

stidmama

LOL *tosses bacon to cross*

2:30 pm

crosshair

crossy jumps for it....

2:30 pm

stidmama

cross, did you see how I fixed our chicken last night? It was so simple and so tasty!

2:30 pm

crosshair

do tell...

2:30 pm

stidmama

didn't use bacon though, saving the "bacon ends" I bought to make a bean soup later this week.

2:31 pm

crosshair

oh! french canadian split pea soup!! mmmmm

2:31 pm

stidmama

cross grabs the bacon in the end zone! TOUCHDOWN for the Canadians!!!! *the crowd goes wild*

2:33 pm

stidmama

the chicken I put on a bed of fennel root, celery and carrots, seasoned with roughly chopped garlic, fresh ground celery seed, black pepper, cayenne, thyme, sage and bay leaves. THEN (this is the genius part) I sliced a big lemon thinly and made a blanket of lemon to cover the top of the chicken. Used our brand-new roasting pan. about an hour and a half at 350 F and it was tender, tasty and salt-free! Didn't even feel I needed more salt and usually I do.

2:34 pm

stidmama

I should mention the chicken was "fresh" (butchered last Friday) from the local farm... so starts out tasty, tender and moist.

2:36 pm

crosshair

ohhhh..sounds delish

2:36 pm

crosshair

crossy is bad for salt

2:37 pm

crosshair

i expect my doctor to catch it any time and cut me off

2:37 pm

stidmama

yes, a lot of people have to avoid extra salt. This is one time that both Tom (who hates to add any salt ever) and I were completely satisfied with the meal at the same time :-)

2:38 pm

crosshair

then it was the perfect meal:))

2:39 pm

crosshair

22..sigh am getting about one word every 30 minutes now

2:39 pm

3:32 pm

penquis

keep plugging!

3:40 pm

crosshair

lol,plugging? i have grown to love the the sonic boom sound of these 20 hidden words as they whiz by me..

3:40 pm

Jillyjill

I'm hitting 'the wall' at 31 left...may list soon. That being said, do have nbt/nbs!

3:40 pm

crosshair

yaa for jilly!

3:41 pm

moonwoof

have a good day jilly! I think the list is a great idea about now

3:42 pm

moonwoof

oh pfft dh words. I never think to look for those

3:43 pm

crosshair

lol,i love it.we no longer need to call it "boxed" wine " we can now call it cardboreaux" hehe

3:43 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...that's how I got my nbt/nbs

3:43 pm

moonwoof

lol nice!

3:44 pm

crosshair

cardboardeaux*

3:46 pm

moonwoof

That's really apt, today. I need to share that with my father.

3:46 pm

moonwoof

My dad was a little down yesterday, missing my mom, and she was big on that stuff... But then she also used to enjoy what she spelled "hawt cuisine". He'll enjoy that a great deal.

3:46 pm

Jillyjill

Still would prefer a micro brew to a cardboardeaux!

3:47 pm

crosshair

i normally only drink wine while waiting for the real booze to show up

3:48 pm

crosshair

i have had a craving of late for a old fashioned bowl of punch.get some nice fruit juices,a bottle of appleton estates spiced rum and mix her up and float slices of lemon on top and chill

3:48 pm

moonwoof

I actually really enjoy wine with dinner, but I couldnt ever really seem to enjoy the cheap stuff, myself. Any other time... what crossy said lol

3:48 pm

Jillyjill

Great, now I have the ro4/4 Rooter ad theme song in my head!

3:49 pm

crosshair

ty ,jilly.was one i needed:)

3:49 pm

moonwoof

When it was really hot here, last month, I made quite a bit of sangria... but Ive not tried that. Ty crossy, Ive made a note.

3:50 pm

crosshair

i choose appleton estates because i consider it a fine rum

3:50 pm

crosshair

and it must be the dark spiced

3:51 pm

crosshair

work on about 2 oz of booze to every 8 oz of juice

3:51 pm

Jillyjill

â™«â™« Call Ro4/4 Rooter, that's the name and away go troubles down the drain! â™«â™«

3:51 pm

moonwoof

Agreed. Cpt morgans or malibu or that stuff lacks depth, imo

3:51 pm

crosshair

less if you do not wish people camping in your living room at end of night

3:52 pm

moonwoof

I almost never make large batches of that stuff unless poker and campouts might ensue ^^

3:52 pm

crosshair

moonwolf,i had some appletons other day,have not had any in a while and i swear i could taste the depth and complexity,and i am no wine taster by any means,was so pleasant it was shocking

3:53 pm

crosshair

so,i had three more just to make sure:))

3:54 pm

uusue2

hi all!

3:54 pm

Jillyjill

Hello uusue!!

3:54 pm

moonwoof

Nice! I havent had what i would consider a good deep rum in a long while, really. Usually I just settle for pyrat or meyers dark, down here, in a pinch. The local selection of rum here is abysmal

3:54 pm

uusue2

hi Jill!

3:55 pm

moonwoof

Good call. Best to QC when it's needed =D

3:55 pm

moonwoof

lo uu!

3:55 pm

uusue2

hi moon woof!

3:56 pm

moonwoof

And since jilly started it, I have brian stetzer on the brain after finding ji4

3:56 pm

crosshair

i have had appletons dark spiced i years past and do not remember it being this good.either all that viodka has made me crave something different or they are having a good batch coming off

3:56 pm

MollyL

No comment on Jill being in need of the Ro4 Rooter man.

3:57 pm

Jillyjill

LOL....It took me to The Bee Gees â™«â™«...all your ji4 talking...â™«â™«

3:57 pm

crosshair

ty!! for ji4! took me forever to find that fish

3:57 pm

moonwoof

Either way, good for you! When theyre savory it's worth taking time for it, imo.

3:58 pm

moonwoof

Heya molly!

3:58 pm

moonwoof

I went with Jump, Ji4, and Wail... it's a better earworm for this mess, to me lol

3:59 pm

MollyL

You can't go wrong with Brian Setzer.

4:00 pm

MollyL

The Bee Gees...we used to refer to them as The Flies

4:01 pm

moonwoof

why so? the hair? or something else?

4:01 pm

MollyL

The way they sound.

4:01 pm

Jillyjill

Well, I always preferred their pre-disco stuff but disco was part of my wild child days...oh to be young again!

4:02 pm

Jillyjill

brb

4:03 pm

MollyL

*Has a vision of Jill in platform shoes, doing The Hustle*

4:05 pm

uusue2

I think I missed the disco era - was off doing other things, I guess.

4:05 pm

MollyL

I hung out with rock and roll boys who would have disowned me if I expressed an interest in disco.

4:06 pm

crosshair

17..and grinding

4:06 pm

uusue2

ah yes, I can imagine that, molly!

4:06 pm

uusue2

3 left for me but I am listing

4:06 pm

moonwoof

totally! I can absolutely see her with big hair and a disco ball!

4:07 pm

moonwoof

Ive got 2 left and yea.... grindy. The list helped me catch a cpl of no-brainers I missed tho.

4:07 pm

uusue2

and fireworks!

4:07 pm

crosshair

16..if i can get it under 10,i may list

4:07 pm

crosshair

yaaa for suze!!

4:08 pm

moonwoof

the very very tastiest Ive had to date, is sadly no longer available. Was made by a spanish company... and had figs? or maybe nutmeg or something in it that was soooo smooth.

4:08 pm

moonwoof

grats uu!

4:08 pm

uusue2

thanks, crossy!

4:09 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT uusue!!

4:09 pm

MollyL

Rum gives me the geebies, but I know some people who really like it.

4:09 pm

crosshair

mmm,nothing like a quality rum

4:09 pm

Jillyjill

Man, I sure enjoyed the MaiTai's at Kona Inn!!

4:09 pm

crosshair

geebies?

4:10 pm

moonwoof

Honestly... cheap crappy rum also gives me the geebies more often than not lol

4:10 pm

MollyL

Ickies, eebie geebies, terrible upchuck like shivers upon taste.

4:11 pm

crosshair

ah

4:11 pm

crosshair

tequilia does that to me

4:11 pm

moonwoof

Sadly... Im a Motel 6 kind of girl with Rothchild's taste... but rum is one thing I just really have a hard time skimping on, if I can find a good one

4:11 pm

MollyL

Hilarious, that describes me to a T.

4:12 pm

moonwoof

same. One and only time Ive ever been drunk... tequila. And blech. never touching the devil's truth syrup ever again.

4:12 pm

IndiaJan

Im stuck at 10...10 t's

4:12 pm

MollyL

Tequila also gives me the geebies.

4:12 pm

crosshair

lol@ devils truth syrup

4:12 pm

moonwoof

highfive! Its *good* to have taste tho, imo

4:12 pm

uusue2

well, I like tequila if it's part of a margarita, but don't think I'd like to drink it straight

4:12 pm

moonwoof

granpa always told me I could be cheap or easy... so Im easy. xD

4:13 pm

crosshair

well,there is cheap,easy or fast,but you can only pick two

4:13 pm

moonwoof

srsly! tequila could make the little white haired ladies chase the bus boys across the room chattering about thier perky little butts! Its evil and things just... come out people's mouths!

4:14 pm

Jillyjill

I'm wallowing through the t's myself india!

4:14 pm

crosshair

that is why you never drink it in the first 2 years of marriage,because when things are that new you are always just two tequilias away from divorce:)

4:14 pm

MollyL

It's all that salt and lemon. People forget they are drinking hard core stuff. And it makes them behave in outlandish ways.

4:15 pm

crosshair

tell the new little woman what you really think of her mom and bingo,yer on the street ;)

4:16 pm

moonwoof

the werider t's are psycic cards (misspelled) and the 2 sandstone words

4:17 pm

Jillyjill

<-----------------!!FW!!

4:17 pm

crosshair

ty,moon woof

4:17 pm

crosshair

yaaa for jilly!!

4:17 pm

moonwoof

Oh I dunno about the mixed part being misleading... Ive honestly never seen anyone who drinks tequila who doesnt just blurt those things out. I did as well, but I do that anyway... I was just extra bitchy about it, Ive been told.

4:17 pm

moonwoof

grats jilly!

4:18 pm

MollyL

Most of the time, a night of drinking straight liquor of any kind, leads to revelations that cost you dearly.

4:18 pm

moonwoof

I know it wasnt mixed when I drank it, and ive seen people who swear by it for not getting hangovers... but they still say that stuff lol

4:19 pm

MollyL

Alcohol Myths 101: Tequila doesn't give you hangovers and people can't smell Vodka on your breath.

4:19 pm

moonwoof

Oh agreed. Happily most of the people I live with and around are both honest and straight-forward. There are rarely revelations.

4:20 pm

moonwoof

At least, not anything that wouldnt come out anyway. I still swear it's the devil's truth syrup.

4:21 pm

crosshair

actyally that would be sodium pentathol:)

4:21 pm

moonwoof

And I agree with that to an extent, as well, molly. But Im sure it also has to do with people's biochemistry, etc. Some of them really are completely functional the next day.

4:22 pm

moonwoof

nah. Thats the gvt's truth syrup. The devil about tequila is that its schneaky

4:23 pm

moonwoof

woot! fireflies! screw you dh7!

4:23 pm

crosshair

yaaa for moonwolf!!

4:24 pm

MollyL

Yes, biochemical make up is interesting. As in, alcoholics metabolize alcohol completely differently than the rest of us. And other drugs as well. Which is why they need to inform an anesthesiologist that they are an alcoholic before surgery.

4:24 pm

moonwoof

tys! putting on my glasses helped a little ^^

4:25 pm

moonwoof

Agreed. I find that stuff pretty interesting. Kinda makes me wish Id known it existed 25 years ago

4:25 pm

moonwoof

Im awful at math, but being able to learn more about that might have encouraged me, long ago

4:26 pm

crosshair

what changes in meds have you seen that a anesthesiologist would do with an alcoholic? would they increase dosages,or do they worry about breathing/choking issues when under?

4:28 pm

moonwoof

because of how alcoholism affects a body they need to modify them lower, usually, iirc. It also changes how thier liver can help get them thru recovery

4:29 pm

MollyL

It's a whole different formula for an anesthesiologist to anesthetize an alcoholic or drug addict, and that has to do with the way those people metabolize.

4:29 pm

moonwoof

I dont recall exactly, now, but I asked the same thing when I had shoulder surgery and was asked about my drinking.

4:30 pm

crosshair

interesting

4:30 pm

MollyL

<---Had to look up iirc

4:31 pm

moonwoof

sorry! That one I could have told you for sure tho =D

4:31 pm

Jillyjill

Well, heading out for now...bbl...hagd all

4:32 pm

crosshair

tc,jilly

4:32 pm

moonwoof

The rest I recall less about, since we only discussed it briefly. Was interested tho, since I come from a long line of people with issues.

4:32 pm

moonwoof

hagd {jilly}

4:32 pm

crosshair

i come from a long line of long lines of people with long lines of issues;))

4:33 pm

moonwoof

Still! Your issues only appear to be how adorable you are. Im sure that's difficult enuf and it's best you're not more thoroghly afflicted ^^

4:34 pm

crosshair

i am comfortable with the voices and my own neurosis now:)

4:35 pm

moonwoof

Excellent! Best to cuddle with your demons. It keeps them quieter ^^

4:35 pm

crosshair

you can hear voices,you can talk with the voices,but as long as you hold off doing what they tell you,you are fine

4:36 pm

moonwoof

that was pretty much what I decided long ago about alcohol. I never needed to go those routes like many in my family seem to have done.

4:36 pm

crosshair

and as far as going crazy? my da always told me to never worry about it,because when it happen,you will not know it..well you may know it if you suddy wake up 8 weeks later standing naked in some town square in asia

4:37 pm

crosshair

suddenly

4:37 pm

moonwoof

I figure that's been the one big perk to having the rothchild taste. Budget alone keeps me in line xD

4:37 pm

crosshair

yes,keep it pricy and you moderate yourself

4:38 pm

crosshair

our lcbo has this 40 year old brandy you would love.it is only $1,700.00

4:38 pm

MollyL

Alcoholism and drug addiction are often things people resort to in order to drown out other issues. Best not to complicate things.

4:40 pm

moonwoof

Only 1.7? I think the local liqours store's most expenisve item is johny walker black =\

4:43 pm

moonwoof

Definately also keeps me in line that most everything they sell anywhere close to here is pretty much awful cheap stuff.

4:43 pm

moonwoof

At least, it would if I didnt do that on my own. Even if I wanted to tho, Id pretty much have to resort to mail order or home brewing.

4:44 pm

crosshair

it is crazy the high end stuff our local lcbo carries

4:44 pm

crosshair

i can even get our some real absinthe

4:44 pm

crosshair

you

4:44 pm

moonwoof

yea... definately nothing that "high falutin" round here lol

4:45 pm

crosshair

now absinthe will make the ole devil come out;)

4:45 pm

moonwoof

but... anise. gech.

4:45 pm

crosshair

nope.do not like the taste

4:46 pm

moonwoof

anise is right up there with coffee for me. Just never aquired any taste for it.

4:47 pm

MollyL

People who drink absinthe are like people who eat mushrooms. They enjoy altered states of reality.

4:47 pm

MollyL

Well, "those" mushrooms.

4:48 pm

moonwoof

lol

4:49 pm

moonwoof

also very possible. I know people like that, but again, they appear to be an aquired taste and one I prefer in moderation.

4:52 pm

moonwoof

Happily, we're about to take off for NC, now that Im over whaterver this virus was. Soon I may be closer to civilization.

4:53 pm

MollyL

The phrase "acquired taste" is a joke in AA circles. As in "they told me drinking vodka was an acquired taste. I acquired a taste for a bottle a day."
: D

4:53 pm

moonwoof

lol nice

4:53 pm

crosshair

hell,i have been drinking vodka so long,i can remember when vodka only came in vodka flavour:)

4:57 pm

moonwoof

and both of the brands at the store were long words I couldnt pronounce!

4:57 pm

MollyL

I'm not sure I understand the point of flavored liquor, but then I've never understood the point of mixing it either.

4:58 pm

moonwoof

imo, the flavored stuff is pretty much only *for* mixing. I kinda just figured it was like people going over board with mulling experiments gone awry.

4:59 pm

penquis

a homemade cranberry vodka can be quite tasty... ;o)

5:00 pm

MollyL

I knew it, Pen is a bootlegger.

5:00 pm

penquis

hah!...my great Uncle Felix was a bootlegger!

5:01 pm

crosshair

bet penquis has some 45% alc/volume dandelion wine hiding in the pantry!

5:01 pm

penquis

and my cousin owns a restaurant in San Diego called Bootleggers...

5:02 pm

penquis

hah....i did have some still brewed Russian vodka for a few years....nursed it ....very potent and very smooth....brought it home in an old fashioned 2-liter plastic coke bottle....no one asked me what it was....ah...the old days of traveling!

5:03 pm

crosshair

yes,now you get the search "con signifgance" if they catch you with mouthwash

5:04 pm

penquis

yes....in those days, they picked an honest looking person in the immigration line, signed your form and off you went...

5:05 pm

penquis

that was good stuff....*sigh*....

5:07 pm

crosshair

tat reminded me of this:http://tinyurl.com/6k7u7nf i am told people with these even have to carry a doctors card because they are in effect carrying radioactive materials across internation borders when they travel..

5:08 pm

moonwoof

ok lunch has arrived! <3 hubby catering. You beautiful people have a great day!

5:08 pm

crosshair

tc,moonwoof

5:09 pm

Must teach Moon how to make a â™¥...<3 looks like a butt

5:14 pm

Heh heh...

5:15 pm

torgone

Looks like "less than three" to me ..

5:17 pm

i thought she had three husbands lol

5:17 pm

torgone

But them I'm kind of a nerd ..

5:26 pm

MollyL

It looks like a lot of things. A heart is not one of them.
: D

5:28 pm

kinda looks like an ice cream cone that someone dropped on the ground...

5:31 pm

Soodle

Tired & emotional, but still gallantly Babbling on.... Hello everybody. :-)

5:32 pm

penquis

hi, soodle...

5:32 pm

crosshair

((soodles))

5:32 pm

penquis

i am playing letter lynx....in and out...

5:33 pm

crosshair

i am in and out also have had 15 left for last hour or so

5:34 pm

Soodle

Oh! And, for the record, henceforth my son will be known as Paul. The number of people freaked outbythe 'Son of Soodle' moniker freaked me out. Lol

5:34 pm

MollyL

What is the trouble Soodle?

5:35 pm

crosshair

i kind of liked son of soodle.sounded like a thriller movie\

5:36 pm

MollyL

Look you, Son of ____ was an Irish thing LONG before grade C horror movies. All of us with surnames starting with Mc are not serial killers.

5:36 pm

penquis

sorry, soodle...meant no offense....

5:37 pm

Soodle

Oh, no trouble at all, Molls. I just hate the 'bye-byes' at the airport. I'll be the finest after a day or two.

5:37 pm

penquis

*thinking that i read too many thrillers*...

5:37 pm

crosshair

nor i

5:37 pm

crosshair

crossy backs away slowly..

5:38 pm

Soodle

Lol Pen. I don't take offence!!!

5:38 pm

crosshair

i do not understand..lost me

5:39 pm

MollyL

And really, it wasn't even grade C horror movies. Just one mental case in New York (David Berkowitz/Son Of Sam who was a serial killer)

5:40 pm

crosshair

think i will just find more words till i figure out what happened

5:40 pm

Soodle

Mac's, Mc's & O's....... The banshee follows people with those names. (Goes without saying, I was born an O'........

5:41 pm

MollyL

Say what? The banshee follows people with those names? She is one busy wailer.

5:41 pm

crosshair

really? did not know that.not something we would know in north america anyways unless your heratige is such

5:42 pm

MollyL

<---Born an Mc...gives the banshee the evil eye.

5:43 pm

Soodle

Yup! If a person with any of those names dies, the banshee can be heard keening before during & after their death.

5:43 pm

crosshair

think i will just leave it to you ladies:))

5:44 pm

MollyL

Well hell Soodle, I thought the banshee keened for any day-cent Irish person.

5:44 pm

Soodle

Not at all , Molls. She is keening as a tribute, & a support.

5:44 pm

Soodle

Allegedly......... :-)

5:45 pm

MollyL

Oh, now I feel sorry for all the non Mac, Mc and O' people.

5:46 pm

crosshair

as a Melbourne,i do not need any Mc ,Mac or O, for banshees and other beasties to descend upon us;))

5:47 pm

crosshair

my da always referred to our coat of arms as the sign of the s**t house :0

5:48 pm

crosshair

or outhouse

5:48 pm

Soodle

Also...... If you find a comb on the road, whatever you do, do Not pick it up. Forget about the probability of fleas & nits...... The big danger is annoying the banshee who ownedit!

5:48 pm

MollyL

I love Irish folklore. It can swing good or bad. Case in point...the pÃ¹ca.

5:52 pm

Soodle

Oh,Molls, my paternal Grandad used to scare the bejaysus outta me with stories of the pooka.

5:54 pm

Soodle

But, of all the folklore tales I grew up with, the banshee was the one who terrified me most.

5:56 pm

MollyL

You really need to see Darby O'Gill And The Little People. They do a great take on the banshee and the pÃ¹ca.

5:59 pm

penquis

ah....loved that movie!

6:00 pm

Soodle

I was raised on Darby OGil! And The Quiet Man, & my personal favourite.... Ryan's Daughter.

6:02 pm

MollyL

Ah, my mistake. I must have you confused with someone else who has not seen Darby.

6:03 pm

MollyL

And I have always wondered about folklore tales of any kind, told with the sole intent of scaring the crap out of kids.

6:07 pm

Soodle

But, when you think about it, most fairy tales are pretty shittifying, if you'll pardon my language. Wicked stepmothers? Being abandoned in the forest? Disinterested fathers.....

6:09 pm

Soodle

Good grief!!!!! My life is a Fairytale!!!!!

6:09 pm

MollyL

You're right, they are. That is why I qualified my statement with "folklore tales of any kind". The worst, most evil lie in all of them is Prince Charming.

6:16 pm

Soodle

Well, thanks, Molly. Off to bed now, no doubt to be haunted by dreams of banshees, ghosts, ghoulies & whatnot.

6:17 pm

MollyL

*Sprinkles holy water over the Soodle Boudoir*

Aw! Holy water. Yay. An untroubled night for me. Thanks Moll, hun.

6:20 pm

MollyL

May the good saints protect ye And the devil neglect ye!

6:24 pm

MollyL

<---Wonders if "hun" is a UK thing, and why. The short form for honey is "hon". Huns were barbarians.
: O

6:24 pm

penquis

heh heh...

6:24 pm

dcseain

Baltimoreans call people 'hon' -- spellt like that.

6:25 pm

dcseain

evening, yall. :)

6:26 pm

MollyL

Or Baltimorons, the slang version of that word. Hi Seain.

6:26 pm

Lizlin

Hi all - yes, certainly have heard "hun" being used in London!

6:27 pm

MollyL

Thanks Liz. I see it here all the time. "Hi hun, how are you?" "Fine hun" "Good hun, glad to hear it".

6:28 pm

Lizlin

I have one friend who uses it all the time - annoys the *** out of me!!!

6:28 pm

MollyL

It is over used a LOT.

6:29 pm

penquis

often heard in the south as well....

6:30 pm

MollyL

Yes, but the southern term is hon, not hun.

6:30 pm

penquis

yes...hon...not hun....

6:30 pm

Lizlin

But then in the US mum is spelt mom!

6:31 pm

crosshair

crossy says "mum"

6:31 pm

Lizlin

Crossy's in Canada - not the US (I'll end the geography lesson now!)

6:32 pm

MollyL

I don't get that one either. Mum, by definition, means to keep silent. As in mum's the word.

6:32 pm

crosshair

reallY? how the heck did that happen?? lol

6:32 pm

penquis

i my house it was man (pronounced in a french way)....short for maman...

6:32 pm

Bugsaw

let's hear it for the Mums in Canada1

Ah! But we have mummy!

6:44 pm

stidmama

6:45 pm

stidmama

we'll just spell "howie" in little pebbles on the beach then, cos -- and sprinkle your ashes artistically around them

6:46 pm

cosdem

6:47 pm

stidmama

rofl... yw, that's me, stidmama's "everything" service from birth to death... *sigh*

6:47 pm

Bugsaw

I like that idea too

6:48 pm

cosdem

but instead of on the beach, it'd be in vermont. *nods*

6:48 pm

stidmama

there's lakes in vermont, and lakes have beaches (and leeches)

6:49 pm

stidmama

LOL and mountains, too -- I hear there are a few mountains

6:49 pm

cosdem

yes yes green mountains

6:49 pm

cosdem

i want my ashes scattered on my ex's yard so i can haunt him for the rest of his miserable life :-D

6:50 pm

stidmama

oh dear... why not choose a nicer eternity? flying on the wind like an eagle feather dancing between the mountaintops

6:50 pm

Bugsaw

you can do that no matter where your ashes are cosdem

6:51 pm

cosdem

lol yeah.. idk.. i'll decide in 30 or so years. i just know i dont wasnt to be buried. they're going to end up moving my coffin if the population growth keeps up

6:51 pm

Bugsaw

6:53 pm

cosdem

oh im not as worried now that i have a retirement plan ready to start lol

6:53 pm

stidmama

30 years seems like a long time -- until it's over. Then it feels like the blink of an eye

6:53 pm

crosshair

my beloved is into shamanism and reincarnation.seems i am to be reincarnated as a wolf

6:53 pm

stidmama

yay bugs!

6:53 pm

cosdem

honestly that was bothering me for a while now.

6:53 pm

MollyL

Scattered ashes become a part of the Earth, and can move about freely, due to rain and run off and such things. As a friend of mine says, your remains do not remain where they are scattered.

6:54 pm

cosdem

oh I know. ashes and a body/coffin is different to me i guess

6:54 pm

cosdem

its psychological i think :)

6:54 pm

stidmama

at least your priorities are in the right order, cos -- I am looking forward to getting a full-time job so I can start earning retirement again. It has been 20 years since I was full-time permanently employed, and so I have very very little saved up.

6:55 pm

crosshair

my earthy remain are to be cremated and put into a decorative hour glass,that way not only can my wife time her 3 minute eggs with me but i will always be on time

6:55 pm

cosdem

anything helps you know? never too early to plan or too late ..

6:55 pm

cosdem

lol cross

6:56 pm

stidmama

there's a first time for everything, eh cross? *silly mama look*

6:56 pm

crosshair

lol ""stidmama""

6:56 pm

crosshair

that was supposed to be hugs

6:56 pm

stidmama

hugs accepted!

6:57 pm

crosshair

big crossy canadian north woods big bear hugs

6:57 pm

stidmama

ooooh. got all the D words!

6:57 pm

stidmama

ah, I guess I am now a smushed mama. Oh well... if I bake and eat enough sugar cookies I should fill out again.

6:58 pm

crosshair

6:58 pm

Lizlin

6:58 pm

stidmama

stidmama

6:59 pm

Lizlin

Hi stid :)

6:59 pm

MollyL

So many people have no retirement money left due to the bad economy. I wonder what will become of them when they can no longer work.

6:59 pm

Lizlin

Any clues for the po 5 x2 would be very welcome!

7:00 pm

Lizlin

found one!

7:00 pm

cosdem

yeah its scary to think about molly

7:00 pm

MollyL

po5/12 sounds like game of chance to win millions.

7:00 pm

crosshair

hehe

7:00 pm

Lizlin

And that'd be the other. Thanks Molly :)

7:00 pm

MollyL

po5/14 ends like seek and ye shall f***

7:00 pm

crosshair

red head and she was a Mc.that says it all:P

7:01 pm

penquis

7:01 pm

stidmama

7:01 pm

cosdem

7:01 pm

Lizlin

Glad neither of the words was obvious!

7:02 pm

Lizlin

ch 5 - similar to the po Molly clued but without the final vowel

7:02 pm

penquis

ch + r***en eggs....

7:02 pm

Lizlin

Game of chance clue

7:03 pm

MollyL

<---Ignoring the nasty comment about me

7:03 pm

crosshair

7:05 pm

Lizlin

Down to 5, which is good because the beach is calling!

7:05 pm

MollyL

Thanks, but I don't need to be told to relax.

7:06 pm

crosshair

7:10 pm

MollyL

7:10 pm

Jerry81

gangsta!

7:10 pm

Lizlin

Thanks. Bye for now.

7:11 pm

Jerry81

It's one of my new sayings, ok!?

7:11 pm

Jerry81

Hope you're all havin' fun here.

7:11 pm

Jerry81

I love this game.

7:12 pm

Minveryork

Hello to my fellow babblers!How is everybody doing today?

7:12 pm

Minveryork

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

7:12 pm

Jerry81

I'd say just an inch from super...but that was yesterday.

7:13 pm

cosdem

I'd like a 150 grid for once.

7:13 pm

cosdem

the smaller ones are just BS.

7:13 pm

Jerry81

It's been 90 F here for about 5 hours, sunny. Nice

7:14 pm

MollyL

I agree Cos, the small grids are no fun.

7:14 pm

MollyL

Hi Min. Cheers. I had a cold one for National Beer Day.
: D

7:15 pm

penquis

it's too bad one can't play old grids....like from an archive....

7:15 pm

Jerry81

I thot it'd be rad if I saw a flag by my name, but I haven't figured out how.

7:16 pm

Minveryork

Good for you MollyL! I don't drink beer, but it's a good day for those that do. I'll have a Corona once in a blue moon.

7:16 pm

cosdem

are you a pro-player jerry?

7:16 pm

Minveryork

You have to go pro if you want a flag and a profile Jerry81

7:17 pm

penquis

i am a pro player and i don't have a flag....must have to do with privacy settings?

7:17 pm

Minveryork

Phantom words for me today were pooch, porch and torch.

7:17 pm

Jerry81

I run, collect coins, and fix mowers. But I still have time for Babble. Not pro. Thanks

7:18 pm

Jerry81

prop

7:18 pm

Jerry81

ooh, see! back to the puzzle.

7:18 pm

cosdem

ah yes you can turn off flag feature in ur profile

7:19 pm

Minveryork

penquis, maybe you don't have a check in the show profile box in your account settings.

7:19 pm

MollyL

That is weird. In your Account Settings, your "Country" generates your flag. But Penquis has United States as her country and no flag.

7:20 pm

Minveryork

penquis,goto "my account" and then see if you have a blue check in the show profile box in the upper top right corner

7:20 pm

penquis

i was not sure what info would be made public if i checked that box...

7:20 pm

cosdem

Ahh that is weird.

7:21 pm

MollyL

You are right Min. Penquis shows up in black print in rankings, which means she has her account settings unchecked for "Show"

7:21 pm

Minveryork

So if it is unchecked, that is why your flag does not appear

7:21 pm

penquis

ok, thanks...

7:23 pm

MollyL

Unless you add details, there is nothing in your profile but your player name, your location and your birth date (which generates your age)

7:23 pm

Minveryork

The penquis mystery has been solved. Are there any other mysteries going on in Babbleland that we can solve tonite?

7:24 pm

MollyL

Yeah, but we probably shouldn't talk about them Min.
: D

7:24 pm

Minveryork

My last word is a mystery,but I'm in no hurry to solve it now

7:24 pm

cosdem

exactly my thoughts :)
