so i have this little book that gets you through all the psalms in a year, instead of trying to do them every month like the lectionary has which is a bit much. and so it is finally getting me to actually read the intimidating 119th psalm, in which each stanza starts with a letter of the hebrew alphabet... and lo and behold today what word i find - sadhe! (or tsadhe)
8:14 am
hurshy
i didn't really realize it was a hebrew letter.

Hi nef. I just went through a huge box of ABS stuff, and am adding to my writeup of Father Luyet, a priest-scientist who figured out how to freeze things, including bull semen. But the work is tough to translate to lay terms and I keep straying to Babble though I don't like this grid! How are you? Is tranquility returning?
6:37 pm
phandmd
good evening.
6:38 pm
RoundBarn
I didn't apoligize for the word for nobody was around, and nothing stocked in the pb, apparently. Been picking green tomatoes--maybe a frost tonight.

good evening all

Nef
I have all of 24 words here so far, I don't like this grid either!
And yes, tranquility is returning to the household; and that's nice. :-)

We had temps of 30 this AM but no frost on the car.

Oh, but I wish people would quit doing that poof thing.
Really.

8:57 pm

True, but the older I get, the more I appreciate weirdness...
8:57 pm
MollyL
There are people who use weird as an adjective, describing themselves as a person who, as Jill said, hears the beat of a different drummer.
8:58 pm
o-o
One definition: strange and unusual, sometimes in a way that upsets you
8:58 pm
MollyL
It's all how you perceive things in your own head.
8:59 pm
o-o
If someone calls another weird, I doubt it is intended as a compliment
8:59 pm
Jillyjill
Sad but true...
9:04 pm
MollyL
Yes, but why spend time considering what other people call you?
9:05 pm
o-o
That is another matter entirely.
9:05 pm
Jillyjill
Some people cannot stand up for themselves and are able to be deeply hurt..
9:07 pm

Another matter...okay...I thought "if someone calls another weird" was about the matter at hand.

<------------!!FW!!
9:08 pm
o-o
MollyL: Weird is weird. I've never thought of it as good or bad.
9:10 pm
MollyL
Yes, that is what I said. I don't consider it a pejorative.
9:12 pm

As for people who cannot stand up for themselves...I can't go there. I gave up enabling years ago.

And now I will send you all back to fluffy chat. Let the anti-Molly emails fly. : D

I just try gentleness to most I meet. One never knows those that are easily hurt...one of the life lessons I've managed in 55 years
9:13 pm
o-o
As you are entitled. My comment: "That is another matter entirely." is a response to: "Yes, but why spend time considering what other people call you?" not whether weird is good or bad.
