12:53 am
rururocks
oh.. sorry
12:54 am
rururocks
I was making a point yesterday. I'll probably change it tomorrow
12:54 am
VolleymomDee
makes sense then
12:54 am
rururocks
it's just a photo of an actor dee :D a famous Japanese actor
12:54 am
gapeach
It does me too, Dee.
12:54 am
VolleymomDee
I know too much of the backstory
12:55 am
rururocks
what do you mean?
12:55 am
puglet
Howdy Peach
12:55 am
rururocks
those guys are concocting a new Gay persona as we speak.. they'll reappear at some point
12:55 am
gapeach
Hi there, Liz.
12:56 am
VolleymomDee
I am sure you are correct.
12:56 am
gapeach
Dear puglet, how are you?
12:56 am
rururocks
The problem is now that the Bar for the newbies is set so high.. it will be harder for them to pull it off
12:56 am
puglet
Iam fine Peach and how are you today
12:57 am
rururocks
Old Frank has sure disappeared huh? :D
12:57 am
VolleymomDee
Good to have someone scrutinizing the newbies.
12:57 am
gapeach
Doing pretty well. The weather has been beautiful, I think that has a lot to do with the way some of us feel.
12:57 am
rururocks
you'll have to email me the back story sometime dee. I don't know everything
12:58 am
Lizlin
I liked you raising awareness to a babbler the other day.
12:58 am
VolleymomDee
You know a lot more than I do. I purposefully steered clear of all of that...
12:58 am
rururocks
yes.. I very suspicious of that new player
12:58 am
puglet
yes, I think you are right Peach
12:58 am
rururocks
trying too hard to misspell words
12:59 am
rururocks
I am very .. sorry
12:59 am
Lizlin
Certainly a huge amount of poor spelling of words, which many kids I've taught with learning difficulties, wouldn't misspell.
12:59 am
puglet
how do you sort out the bad apples
12:59 am
rururocks
bingo liz.. bingo
1:00 am
Lizlin
I also questioned his access to media for someone claiming to be taught in a school by rabbis. A religious family wouldn't necessarily have that access.
1:00 am
rururocks
:D.. me too
1:00 am
Lizlin
I don't mean using a computer - more knowledge of popular culture.
1:00 am
Lizlin
But I don't really know.
1:00 am
rururocks
I think I know who he is
1:00 am
puglet
does this person carry apart of your name RU
1:01 am
Lizlin
Yes Pugs and a number.
1:01 am
puglet
yes Joso gave a warning earlier
1:01 am
rururocks
ah.. good for Joso
1:02 am
Lizlin
But in the end, as long as people don't get sucked in and no one gets hurt, then I don't mind what persona they have!
1:02 am
rururocks
I just talk to people who've been around a while or have met other players.
1:02 am
puglet
I dont understand the why of it though? Whats to gain from it?
1:03 am
Lizlin
I think I'm a bit like that too. Tend to lurk if I don't know the people chatting but then I've only been here a bit over a year, so I guess there are lots I don't know.
1:03 am
rururocks
Not sure pugs.. they get their jollies off pretending to be different people
1:03 am
gapeach
The fact that he is getting one over on someone. Or thinks he is.
1:03 am
Lizlin
I agree. They get a real kick out of deception.
1:03 am
Lizlin
I agree. They get a real kick out of deception.
1:03 am
puglet
Iam about in the same boat Liz
1:04 am
joshuavorbis
hi and nbt
1:04 am
rururocks

1:04 am
Lizlin
Sorry! Got to go. Going out tonight, so got to get ready. I'll be back later or tomorrow. Sleep well and I'll catch you soon.

Morning Sprite--hugs--no more news from me on Rose
1:05 am
gapeach
I bet we have someone here who just might have caught something from his doings....lets ask o-o if he has a take on it.
1:06 am
rururocks
no.. I don't think so. It was up for another reason. I think I'll change it now if it is bothering people
1:06 am
sprite
not bothering me, just wondering if you had a reason to put it back up.
1:06 am
rururocks

1:20 am
sprite
josh kept his socks on
1:21 am
sprite
I have heard they eat everything hanging around, pug
1:21 am
joshuavorbis
one thing i learned was that when goats want to kick, they kick. you can't really affect the outcome at all
1:21 am
jbp
good thing, or the newly pedicured goat might want to wear/eat them
1:21 am
puglet
thats what Iam getting at--lol
1:21 am
rururocks
wow.. that would be a game changer for me
1:21 am
joshuavorbis
ah, nipomo is near SLO
1:21 am
joshuavorbis
i knew it was around there somewhere
1:22 am
rururocks
I went to a nudist beach once in my younger days.. i generally felt uncomfortable
1:22 am
joshuavorbis
well, i agree with previous preferences for not being nude around goat chores
1:22 am
Yvooria
ja. . . ?
1:23 am
rururocks

I am pretty ok with nude. Like in a sauna for instance. Visited friends at a nudist camp here once and didn't mi4 at all.

1:36 am
puglet
Hello Jilli
1:36 am
sprite
hi jilli! Oh I wanted to tell you... I started on Jigidi and am having lots of fun puzzling. Even made and shared a new puzzle there!
1:37 am
sprite
jeezzz pug, that blows. So sorry :( You so don't need that kind of thing.
1:37 am
jillibus
great, sprite! are you using sprite as your name there?
1:37 am
jbp
phantom... idiom
1:38 am
sprite
sprite was taken. I am spritelet.
1:38 am
sprite
good phantom
1:38 am
jbp
what is jigidi?
1:38 am
gapeach
I FOUND THE NINE.....I FOUND THE NINE...all by myself. ( it's the little victories that thrill me, obviously).
1:38 am
puglet
is that a word game site or jigsaw puzzles
1:38 am
sprite
a jigsaw puzzle game site
1:39 am
jbp
yay, peach!!!!! I totally get that
1:39 am
Yvooria
good job, peach :)
1:39 am
sprite
oh wowwww peach, wtg!
1:39 am
puglet
ALRIGHT PEACH!
1:39 am
jbp
ooh, jigsaws are my newest addiction. will have to check it out
1:39 am
jillibus
I'll look for you. I'm jillibus there and did offer a few for solving. At present I'm addicted to mosaics -- big ones.
1:39 am
sprite
I prefer the big ones too. Will look up your puzzles!
1:41 am
sprite
wow, you contributed a lot of puzzles! Love the playing Danes.
1:41 am
jbp
am dazed by puzzles...
1:41 am
puglet
I always liked the round puzzles but not too many can be found any more
1:41 am
sprite
my puzzle got a 100 solves within the hour. But not a single comment, lol.
1:42 am
sprite
I love jigsaws. Real life ones too.
1:42 am
puglet
at home we almost always had one out on the puzzle table--My mom loved them too
1:43 am
jillibus
jbp, a couple of guys in Denmark invented jigidi and it's great -- people make puzzles out of their own creations and there are some beauties. No round ones, though, pug, although have you tried the Bits & Pieces catalogue?
1:43 am
sprite
oh how awesome, pug! Wish we had room for such a table. I'd love to be able to just let it sit there and puzzle whenever I wanted.
1:44 am
jillibus
Well, that's what I do on jigidi.
1:44 am
puglet
No I havent Jilli
1:45 am
puglet
Mom was always exchanging puzzles in our small town with others living there
1:46 am
sprite
real life ones are harder though, jilli. On jigidi you always know which part of a piece is up.
1:47 am
sprite
that is smart, pug
1:47 am
puglet
I havent tried any of the stand up ones, have you Sprite
1:47 am
sprite
have you started a new darkhunter book already, pug?
1:48 am
puglet
How did you guess? LOL
1:48 am
sprite
we did a globe one here, pug
1:48 am
puglet
did you like it?
1:48 am
sprite
good :D Am so glad it reached you ok. You will LOVE bride and vane.
1:48 am
sprite
(and hate her ex boyfriend, lol)
1:49 am
jillibus
sprite , I just bookmarked your puzzle -- just the kind I like. At present I'm working on a Potpourri by InConcert35, one of my favourites -- another is debs.
1:49 am
puglet
not anymore than I do you
1:49 am
sprite
pug, the pieces were numbered on the inside... took away a lot of the fun for me.
1:49 am
sprite
thanks jilli, will look them up. And I hope you will enjoy the stars. I had a lot of fun making it, will probably make more mosaics.
1:50 am
jillibus
I know jigidi is easier than real ones, but I find them relaxing.
1:51 am
jbp
ooh, just joined
1:51 am
puglet
someone gave me a puzzle of puzzle pieces and I hated that one--was too, and I mean too hard
1:51 am
jbp
am going to upload some images...
1:51 am
sprite
so do I, jilli. Am enjoying it very much. Sometimes I go to bed way too late because I don't want to stop.
1:51 am
sprite
oh I know that one, pug! Yes, that is a wicked puzzle.
1:52 am
sprite
jbp, awesome! What is your name on jigidi?
1:52 am
jillibus
I admire mosaic makers. I haven't a clue how to invent them, although sometimes somebody gives tips. Do you know about the Fadebook group and the yahoo group?
1:52 am
sprite
no, didn't know. Will check out the fb group if I ever go there, lol.

6:22 am
Lizlin
Are you able to eat solid food now?
6:23 am

if i am very,very careful,i can eat,most solid food on right side only,but i must be very selective,nothing real hard or crunchy
6:24 am
crosshair
i also have a rx mouthwash i must swill with twice a day
6:24 am
Lizlin
Still progress! Hope the dentist has good news for you when you see him / her.

*shudder* poor crossy, been there so many times... only have two of my own left now (they help anchor my bottom partial so we try to keep them.) best of luck with it.
6:25 am
crosshair
this practice is an interesting one in that it is three brothers and one sister,all dentists
6:26 am
Lizlin
It's a family affair! (To be sung but only if you're more tuneful than me)
6:27 am
rbud
I used to know a set of two brothers and one sister who were all in medical school at the same time, wonder if they all made it through.
6:28 am
crosshair
they converted a large victorian home here in town and they have 5 rooms all i dentical that they can do the work in at any given time and they just rotate from one to the other as the x-ray techs get them all done and placed
6:28 am
Lizlin
Very neat!
6:29 am
crosshair
if you are on gas or pills,you get one of the three downstairs rooms,if you are local shot only,you can manage the stairs to one of the two upstairs rooms
6:30 am
Lizlin
Sounds very well organised.
6:30 am
rbud
good plan, I think. have never had gas myself.
6:30 am

At least you have something to take your mind off the dental work then!
6:34 am
rbud

6:34 am

6:35 am
crosshair
here,we have people who save the good parts. there is quite a market for it
6:35 am

I had to use lickety for the J, I admit.
6:35 am

Hi mimi :)
6:42 am
MimiCat
((Liz)) How are you?
6:42 am
Lizlin
I'm fine thanks - you? How was your meet-up with Aloy?
6:44 am
MimiCat
It was wonderful..watched the mountain sunset and then city lights while having a terrific salmon dinner. Aloy is a great lady. She posted a picture of the sunset on the Babble community Facebook.
6:44 am
Lizlin
I'll check it out!
6:44 am
Lizlin
Glad you had a good time.
6:45 am
Lizlin
Beautiful pic, Mimi :)
6:47 am
MimiCat
It was a night I'll always remember. Such good conversation with an intelligent woman and she has great heart....I'm happy to have made such an excellent new friend.
6:47 am

I'm really happy for you :)

Sure would like to come to Australia! Always wanted to visit there. Maybe next year, Liz...you game for that?
6:48 am
MimiCat
((crossy)) Did you see my request for your beef stew crock pot recipe yesterday?
6:49 am
Lizlin
I would recommend Australia to everyone!
6:49 am
MimiCat
It would be fun to plan an excursion with other Babblers...we'll have to work on that.
6:50 am
Lizlin
We're fairly wide-spread here - don't forget how big Aus is but still, who knows? It would be fun!
6:51 am
Lizlin
Diz has posted on the fb site to let her know about any planned trips down under!
6:51 am
crosshair
i will dig it up for you after classes today,mimi
6:51 am
MimiCat
I saw her post. I'd really love to see New Zealand.
6:52 am
Lizlin
Me too - hope to go there with friends from England. Lots to plan for that!
6:52 am
Lizlin
There's also so much of Aus that I haven't seen yet.
6:52 am
MimiCat
Thanks, crossy. If it's too much trouble, don't worry about it. I thought you might just have it in your head since you mentioned making it with the rest of the beef roast. I'm sure I can find one easily enough.
6:53 am
Lizlin
How's the maths going, Crossy?
6:53 am
MimiCat
I've been lucky to have seen most of the United States. I've driven cross-country 12 times, different routes. We have it all here.
6:53 am
crosshair
day one was ok,but am very shakey about it all.will see how it goes
6:54 am
Lizlin
That's awesome Mimi - funny but people I've met here are reluctant to even drive 40 miles down the coast!
6:54 am
crosshair
but i must fill this one hole and there is nothing for it but to put my head down and charge into it
6:54 am
MimiCat
I was dreading my algebra classes, crossy. All math ever did for me was lower my grade point average! Unfortunately, I had to quit school abrupty...again..so didn't take them.
6:55 am
Lizlin
I'm sure it'll be OK Crossy - just ask if you don't understand. Don't let them go further until you do understand. I hate maths, so sympathise.
6:55 am
crosshair
lol,liz,here,we once drove 2 hours for a good burger lol
6:56 am
Lizlin
We drive here but we talked about moving down to the other end of the coast - about 20 miles and people think that's so far away. Still we hope to move there one day.
6:56 am
MimiCat
When I lived in L.A., I would drive up the coast to San Francisco every chance I got...just for the weekend. That drive is a vacation in and of itself...just breathtakingly beautiful.
6:56 am
wvteach
i was the one who loved math - logical - later loved teaching math to kids
6:57 am
Lizlin
Teaching maths to kids really helped me understand it much better than when I was taught it in school. I hope that the kids that I taught maths fared better than I did!
6:57 am
crosshair
we had a cottage once,was so remote,you packed food for 2 weeks because it was one hour on bush trails at a crawl,30 on rutted dirt road, then an hour on the pavement to the closest grocers
6:57 am
MimiCat
Teach, I was fortunate that my (now ex) husband was great at math, so he helped the kids. My area is English and any kind of writing.
6:57 am
Lizlin
That's remote!

Lizlin
English was my area too.
6:58 am

MimiCat
I'm kind of weird, crossy...don't like competitions when it comes to writing or to singing...just seems wrong somehow to me. I never understand how they can take so many different styles and narrow the "prize" down to just one.
7:01 am

30 days,50,000 words,all rough draft

want some real fun mimi? try using a speech-to-type program like dragon naturally speaking for your next book.once you train the program to your voice,you can dictate to it at 160wpm and it will type it out for you
7:05 am
MimiCat
Don't even get me started on voice recognition technology, crossy...that's what caused all of us transcriptionists to be out of work!
7:05 am
crosshair
crossy tip-toes away...
7:06 am
MimiCat
Teach, in my opinion, we stress competition and winning way too much in this country. Whatever happened to being proud of personal achievement in and of itself?
7:06 am
MimiCat
LOL, crossy....no, don't go!
7:07 am
MimiCat
I actually walking away from singing when I was young because I was starting to get too much recognition and never wanted to be famous....like I said, I'm weird.
7:09 am
wvteach
i play m,ymusic for my own enjoyment and enjoy playing for others to share this, but i would not want to think i had to compete
7:10 am
wvteach
we did find that after a long time of just playing together that we wanted to perform for others - this gave us a goal of
polishing" up some of the music to a better level
7:11 am
MimiCat
Exactly...I enjoy the whole process of singing...it brings me a joy like nothing else does. I'm classically trained in voice but I love to belt out classic rock...until 3 years ago, still sang with a classic rock band at corporate parties and such. Hated singing every night in clubs, though...became a job...so I stopped. Loved music too much for it to become a chore.

Dan, I just got Christmas toys for my grandsons (ages 2-1/2 and 1) and am dying to open them and play with them myself! Isn't it great to play with toys again with our little ones?
7:14 am

The best gift my kids ever got was a set of different shapes of plain pine blocks...they played with those for years. So I just got a set of 110 for the boys. I remember playing on the floor and making houses and roads and having such a great time.

6:39 pm
Lizlin
ty pen and good morning all :)
6:39 pm
Rows
hmm not getting it :/
6:40 pm
Lizlin
German sounding word - full of an 5
6:40 pm
phandmd
teenager girls are full of an***
6:40 pm
Lizlin
Now, like you, Rows, I've got to find the 3rd an word!
6:40 pm
Rows
ahh yes thanks :)
6:41 pm
Rows
just change the last vowel of the previous an5
6:41 pm
phandmd
an alt spelling of the one above it
6:41 pm
penquis
it's the first an word....isn't it??
6:42 pm
penquis
oh sorry....i did not notice liz's post
6:43 pm
Lizlin
nm - Must have babble blindness because I can only see a sometimes vowel that can exchange for the final vowel!
6:43 pm
penquis
change direction perhaps?
6:43 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
babble blindness, that's funny 8-)
6:43 pm
Lizlin
Using the wrong 2nd vowel!
6:44 pm
Lizlin
Gwen - meant to say that I would never have spoiled the Dr Who for you. When you said you hadn't seen it, I said no more!
6:44 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i almost always miss the word "nine" -- no idea why
6:45 pm
o-o
I find more words when facing the monitor
6:45 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
thanks, lizlin. unfortunately others have spoiled it for me. grrrrrrrr!
6:45 pm
Lizlin
That's so hard. I avoided fb on the morning that we were going to watch it.
6:46 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
but, i am indeed looking forward to DW number 12
6:46 pm
Lizlin
Yes - it'll be interesting with an older doctor.
6:46 pm
Rows
i'm gonna miss matt smith
6:47 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
yup, gonna miss 11, but hey, that's how the show has kept on going all this time
6:47 pm
Lizlin
Yes, me too but I got over missing David Tennant because Matt Smith was quickly the doctor, so I hope that it'll be the same this time.
6:48 pm
Lizlin
di 6 / 27 pls?
6:48 pm
Rows
yeah... it's big shoes to fill though
6:48 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
di6, fancy word for eat6
6:48 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
biggest shoes in tv history !!!
6:48 pm
Lizlin
ty! how did I miss that gerund? Thought I'd tried most of them!
6:50 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
when there' five Is in the grid, and at least two Ts, Ns, Ms, and Ds, things get interesting
6:50 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
bigger than bozo's shoes !!
6:51 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
(reflecting on the fact that there was probably not a bozo in australia or honduras)
6:52 pm
Lizlin
Interesting but don't know about bozo's shoes!
6:52 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
just a clown with really big shoes
6:52 pm
Lizlin
Figured something like that.
6:55 pm
o-o
The largest feet ever measured were the feet of Robert Pershing Wadlow, of Alton Illinois, whose shoe size is 37AA (47 cm, 18½ in long)
6:56 pm
Lizlin
He must've been pretty tall, too.
6:57 pm
o-o
At age 18, he had reached eight feet, four inches tall, and weighed 390 pounds
6:57 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he was also the tallest ever human being (i once sold a biography of him; he was a shoe salesman)
6:57 pm
