2:23 am

Lizlin

I can always make them smaller.

2:23 am

grannyrose

peach, i just open the page, login, and th4 i am where i was when i left.

2:24 am

Lizlin

Peach if you go back to the puzzle later it gives you the option to continue.

2:24 am

puglet

Rose, they do have small puzzles --- like 10 or more pieces

2:24 am

gapeach

OK, I will try that. Thanks, rose.

2:24 am

Lizlin

So you could start a different puzzle if you wanted.

2:25 am

grannyrose

no. liz. i need to work on increasing my concentration. yes, i know, pugs. but i have to work on my concentration span.

2:25 am

gapeach

just thought I'd share something.....our ADHD/OCD g/son has been off medication since Sept last yr and is going great guns - he still has 'little fits/tantrums' but has learnt to control these by sticking his earplugs in and listening to music till he calms down....we are soooo proud of him.

2:29 am

Lizlin

Thanks sprite - I would've said that now I'm on my computer - lol!

2:29 am

sprite

oh wow dizgrannie!

2:29 am

grannyrose

2:30 am

sprite

s he feeling happier now too, dizgrannie?

2:30 am

puglet

Iam tired but other then that Iam fine, Sprite

2:30 am

Lizlin

Reading 4th book now, sprite - Kyrian. Fluff as you said, but great fun :)

2:31 am

dizgrannie

yes a break through, he is even doing his homework on time, although he wants me and not his Mum to assist him....who cares as long as he is learning

2:31 am

sprite

am so happy, pug! Did you get to do your shpping?

2:31 am

sprite

yay Liz! Exactly. Entertainment in book format.

2:32 am

Lizlin

Couldn't have put it better myself, sprite.

2:32 am

sprite

:)

2:32 am

puglet

yes I did---was a nice day too---7 hours in town but got everything done

2:32 am

grannyrose

oh, and had the hair cut today. usually fang does it, but at the moment i feel disinclined to let her anywhere near my hair.

2:32 am

sprite

awesome, pug, am so glad. Now you can face the weather ordeal in relative comfort

2:33 am

sprite

very good, rose. You need to keep that lady out of your hair :D

2:33 am

puglet

yes,,,cant wait for the storms--LOL

2:33 am

Lizlin

Who knows what Fang would do?

2:33 am

dizgrannie

Sprite, his reading has improved immensely since his teacher and his younger sister's teacher set a reading goal for them for the end of last year and he managed to beat his sister by 2 levels - great seeing he was 3 levels behind her

2:33 am

Lizlin

Which puzzle did you do, Rose?

2:34 am

grannyrose

alaskan ice, liz.

2:34 am

Lizlin

Wow Diz. That

2:34 am

Lizlin

That's great progress.

2:34 am

sprite

that is so awesome, dizgrannie. Am so glad for him. For you all.

2:34 am

Lizlin

Unbelievable seeing those bergs, Rose.

2:35 am

grannyrose

what a change, diz! that's amazing

2:35 am

gapeach

Thanks, puglet and sprite.

2:35 am

grannyrose

i bet, liz.

2:35 am

dizgrannie

give him a challenge and he is all for it....god bless the little bugga - but he still realises that not everyone can win

2:35 am

Lizlin

Your grandson must be feeling good about it too.

2:35 am

sprite

then he is wiser than many an adult, dizgrannie

2:35 am

puglet

for what Peach

2:36 am

dizgrannie

Liz, he is over the moon. Apparently he is very popular now that he doesn't disrupt the class all the time.

2:37 am

Lizlin

Even better, Diz - breaking the reading barrier will have opened many lessons up to him.

2:37 am

Lizlin

Kids often disrupt as a means of hiding what they can't understand.

2:38 am

dizgrannie

the other kiddos elected him for the student representative council (they have a say in what goes on in the school)

2:38 am

Lizlin

or manage.

2:38 am

Lizlin

Wow! Kudos!

2:38 am

puglet

Rose is it tomorrow that you go to your other doctor

2:39 am

sprite

yvw peach

2:40 am

grannyrose

on thursday, pugs. in 2 days time.

2:40 am

Lizlin

Peach - sprite, lilli, jbp, crossy, uusue and I all have puzzles there - probably others I've forgotten too.

2:40 am

puglet

Peach, you can also change the background color too

2:40 am

Lizlin

Very useful where lots of puzzles have white pieces!

2:41 am

sprite

so many lovely puzzles. I have bookmarks to last me a year, lol

2:41 am

puglet

okay Rose

2:41 am

Lizlin

When you hit pause, there's the option to change background.

2:41 am

Lizlin

Me too, sprite - I've stopped bookmarking unless it's something very special!

2:42 am

puglet

I know Sprite, everyday theres nice puzzles put on there

2:42 am

dizgrannie

He is a funny little bugga, not a 'cuddly' kiddo but a very emotional kid, when his mum and then a mth later I was rushed to hosp, he was the worst. Then in the past 2 weeks hubby has had 2 cardiac scares and all he wanted to know was 'hows Grandad.'

2:42 am

sprite

yeah... I still bookmark all the huge ones that appeal to me. Who knows when I will have to stay put for another couple of weeks... jigidi will save my sanity, lol

2:43 am

flosey

just passed half way, off to bed now, goodnight all

2:43 am

Lizlin

you wonder why we eat so much chicken, don't you, pugs? it's because it is a low-fat meat, and can be prepared and cooked in so many different ways.

3:18 am

puglet

but I will stay if you want someone to talk to

3:19 am

grannyrose

please do, pugs. after a sleepless night, you may even doze off for a while, which would be a blessing.

9:45 am

why?

9:46 am

hurshy

why does it make you feel old, ruby, that is

9:47 am

doseffing

... one forgets that it was thirty years ago ...

9:47 am

rubyfoo

I never aw St**tr** even though the originator came from Binghamton

9:48 am

bichon

Everything is 30-50 years ago for me. But I'm glad I'm here to enjoy it

9:48 am

hurshy

but, that would be the case for many very young people too, so maybe it should make you feel young.

9:48 am

rubyfoo

is everybody mourning, Philip Seymour Hoffman? He was one of my favorite actors

9:48 am

hurshy

we need some kind of public policy program to keep our actors from killing themselves with drugs.

9:49 am

bichon

I can't mourn someone who, despite having children, chose to disregard that and waste his life on heroin

9:49 am

doseffing

... an amazing actor ... saw him in death of a salesman ... .... but if you will mess with heroin you will pay

9:50 am

rubyfoo

wow, dose, I only read the reviews of that. Even though it was heroine, I still feel bad. He was such a great actor but none of the tributes or the obit mentioned his family or that he was friends with anybody....

9:50 am

bichon

He had two children who he used to walk to school

9:50 am

rubyfoo

I guess he was, in the end, a very strange and isolated guy

9:51 am

hurshy

everybody in the screen actor's guild gets weekly drug tests!

9:51 am

rubyfoo

I didn't know that, bichon

9:51 am

hurshy

is my proposal

9:51 am

doseffing

... my older daughters friend auditioned for him ... says it was a tremendous experience ... learned a lot

9:52 am

bichon

Really hurshy?

9:52 am

hurshy

i'm suggesting it

9:53 am

hurshy

as a way to stop the heath ledgers and the philip seymour hoffmans and so forth

9:53 am

hurshy

civil liberties, pah! you're an ACTOR. you NEED a nanny.

9:54 am

rubyfoo

I'm afraid Big Brother is watching all of us anyway

9:54 am

hurshy

what good is WATCHING if they don't stop people killing themselves!

9:54 am

rubyfoo

heroine, shmeroine, phone calls and e-mails are an exposure we don't need

9:55 am

gramma

I say walk a mile... drug addiction is a horrible battle that most don't win.

9:55 am

rubyfoo

I think people have a right to kill themselves, but not to have their e-mails read or their phone calls monitored

9:55 am

bichon

He could have gone to rehab

9:55 am

hurshy

he DID go to rehab

9:55 am

rubyfoo

I think he went to rehab

9:55 am

bichon

okay, guess that didn't work

9:56 am

rubyfoo

you can't protect people from their own destructive impulses, but we should protect the from gov't spying

9:56 am

hurshy

what people don't realize is that sometimes, people die right after rehab. that is what happened with the guy from glee. your body gets free of it, then you take the dose you were used to taking, and now your body can no longer handle it, so boom, you're dead.

9:56 am

rubyfoo

",s. paranoid ruby"

9:57 am

MollyL

Yes Hursh, same reason people die after being clean for years and then using again. Addiction is just a sad, sad thing.

9:57 am

gramma

I would reccomend that you all watch The Hungry Heart It's a documentary about addiction in a small city in Vermont. It's powerful stuff and it really helps you to understand what it is and how it happens

9:57 am

I didn't know that about dying that way

My first experience with death from addiction was an alcoholic in the neighborhood who died after drinking again after 20 years sober. Tragic.

probably harder to see without the accent marks...

10:02 am

see you later, kids, cooking and drinking

10:02 am

hurshy

i know a doctor who treats heroin addicts with methadone. he says they tell him that heroin is better than sex.

10:04 am

bichon

But that's comparing apples and oranges

10:04 am

hurshy

not exactly - the brain imaging shows it does stimulate the pleasure center of the brain - the same pleasure center - to a far greater degree

10:05 am

bichon

But you can have sex with another human being. Heroin is a solitary thing

10:05 am

hurshy

yes but...

10:06 am

hurshy

it's possible a lot of heroin users have not experienced sex at its best in the psychological intimacy way

10:07 am

hurshy

anyway the point is, it stimulates the pleasure center really off the charts. so like, they just will do anything to get that again.

10:08 am

MollyL

I have read the same thing Hursh. The pleasure stimulation from heroin is reportedly much greater than the pleasure stimulation from sex.

10:11 am

bichon

I'll take sex any day [night]. At least most people don't have to pay for it

10:14 am

MollyL

It's hard to understand the addictive personality when you don't have one. There is a reason they call addiction insidious.

10:15 am

bichon

That's one of several reason that I don't drink any alcohol at all.

10:15 am

hurshy

yes. and because it's hard to understand, as a society, we end up treating it SO STUPIDLY. we want to blame and punish instead of treating, and it ends up costing more and having much worse results for addicts and for everyone else too!

10:16 am

harpjane

sex can be one of the worst non-chemical addictions, actually.

10:16 am

Some woman called the police station this a.m. to complain that her neighbor was shovelling his snow into her driveway. Winter brings out the a-hole in some people.

12:57 pm

MLFAN17

annie i used to live in a condo and they did that to us all the time

12:57 pm

Judi

Actually, she lives in the historic district, Molly. So, those folks are required by city codes to shovel walks and driveways.

12:57 pm

cybernan

yes - looking for the one that follows that, ch1212

12:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh heck, and i already have that re 6. never mind.

12:58 pm

cosdem

i cant find the first te4/5 feeing so stupid

12:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

it is illegal here to throw snow into a plowed street, but no one pays that any mind.

12:59 pm

cosdem

ahh never find mound it

12:59 pm

MollyL

Yes, but it's not illegal to shovel snow into someone else's driveway, is it? Just an asshat move.

12:59 pm

72 Temple Owl

you mean an asphalt move?

12:59 pm

cosdem

in some cities you get a ticket for it i think

1:00 pm

Anniebrook

Im going down to clean off the car (why, I dont know) and maybe a little shoveling. see you later.

1:00 pm

MollyL

I'm sure police officers are just sitting around waiting to cite people for illegal shoveling.

1:00 pm

Anniebrook

lol

1:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

annie, take it easy with that shoveling.

1:00 pm

cosdem

no we have community police for that. volunteers.

1:00 pm

Judi

Apparently, this woman and her neighbor share a small strip of land between their two properties. That's where she piles the snow (rightly so). The other guy doesn't want it on this strip of land, so he re-shovels it into her driveway. Asshat indeed.

1:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes well when you hit a patch of ice tonight beause some idiot threw their snow into the road, you wish they did

1:01 pm

cybernan

ah - found it - be introduced again

1:01 pm

Judi

I think they need to build a snow wall between them.

1:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

there you go!

1:02 pm

MimiCat

Maybe they could dig a big ditch between the two and throw all the snow in there!

1:03 pm

Judi

Maybe they could call someone who actually cares, cause I sure don't.

1:04 pm

Molly, I knew where my car was. I was able to pull it out. Hopefully, they will now plow us all in again. Suppose to start snowing tonight.

2:17 pm

hego

Annie's car is lost??

2:18 pm

MollyL

I was just joking Annie. Sometimes when you get plowed in, it seems as if your car is lost.

2:18 pm

Anniebrook

hego, I'm in a parking lot behind my apartment house but they plow us in whenever they is a heavy snowfall

2:18 pm

Anniebrook

*there

2:18 pm

hego

2:19 pm

Anniebrook

Molly, I was wondering about your memory. Joshing you.

2:19 pm

hego

I wonder what is the point of plowing the roads when we can't get out of the driveways.

2:20 pm

Anniebrook

They plow a path but the people who have cars dont care about that. We will get to our cars, thank you!

2:20 pm

MollyL

I often wonder about the logic of plow drivers.

2:20 pm

hego

I am in a development and we are payibg the plowers.

Kind od a pain

2:22 pm

of, can't type anymore.lol

2:22 pm

MollyL

Unfortunately, what you pay the development and what the plow guys get paid is a way different number. Hence the sloppy plowing.

2:22 pm

Anniebrook

It's okay, I understood

5:30 pm

phandmd

good evening, all

5:32 pm

Rows

wtf? a word cannot exist without a vowel or a y

5:33 pm

dcseain

welsh borrowings lack vowels, as W is a vowel in welsh, as in cam/cmws, for example.

5:33 pm

dcseain

cwm/cwms rather

5:35 pm

Rows

i feel like that is not English, though

5:35 pm

Rows

but, nothing's new, i've always had issues with the dictionary this game uses :P

5:35 pm

phandmd

may I have a clue for the AS 6/21 pls

5:35 pm

dcseain

English borrowed or kept a number of pre-anglo-saxon words.

5:37 pm

flosey

hi again, back to finish up

5:38 pm

phandmd

Hi, Flosey

5:38 pm

flosey

hopefully - then get something done around here

5:38 pm

Rows

hi flosey

5:38 pm

MollyL

Well there is nothing English about cw 5 and 6

5:39 pm

flosey

there are cw words today?

5:39 pm

phandmd

no, crw...

5:39 pm

Rows

apparently... this game is using archaic pre-anglo-saxon words...

5:39 pm

dcseain

It's a musical instrument that originated in Wales. So, it's as English as 'piano'. :)

5:40 pm

godthaab

Hi flosey, I just read that you lived in North York for a time. So did I!

5:40 pm

flosey

have seen a couple welsh words

5:40 pm

Rows

according to wikipedia, it's also called a crowd

5:40 pm

Rows

which is also a ghost word in this grid, haha

5:40 pm

flosey

yes that would be until 1961

5:41 pm

HarryHood

except that it's not

5:41 pm

Rows

weird lookin' instrument

5:41 pm

HarryHood

hi :)

5:41 pm

flosey

then married and moved to bc for 5 years, back to Ont. for 30 before retiring to west coast

5:41 pm

godthaab

Oh, I got there in the late 70s

5:41 pm

Rows

kinda like a laying down guitar/violin

5:41 pm

dcseain

indeed, which is a very rough approximation of the original word, just as floyd is a very rough approximation of Lloyd as pronounced in Welsh. :)

5:42 pm

flosey

ah, we lived on Kingsdale Ave, where were you?

5:42 pm

MollyL

I disagree with "as English as piano" but everyone has their own take on the words that live here.

5:42 pm

HarryHood

halfway!

5:42 pm

Rows

oh, i see a photo of it being played... it's played just like a violin

5:42 pm

dcseain

My point being as the piano is borrowed also.

5:42 pm

godthaab

I was up at Jane and Finch near York University

5:42 pm

Rows

ugh Molly you remind me of the idiots who've been bashing the Coca-Cola commercial from the super bowl

5:43 pm

dcseain

yes, like a nyckleharpa, it's sort of similar.

5:43 pm

flosey

ah. one son went to York hubby taught at Bathurst and Finch

5:44 pm

MollyL

I'll take my idiot self back to lurkville now

5:44 pm

godthaab

Northview?

5:44 pm

flosey

yes

5:45 pm

godthaab

Cool!

5:45 pm

phandmd

Rows, that was really uncalled for.

5:45 pm

Rows

Molly, sorry, what was the problem you had with the commercial? i don't mean to be so harsh... i just heard some comments through friends, so maybe their filters weren't quite kind

5:46 pm

MollyL

What commercial? I have no idea what you're talking about.

5:46 pm

flosey

did you attend there godthaab?

5:46 pm

dcseain

must off to meeting, maybe back later.

5:47 pm

flosey

hi and bye seain

5:47 pm

phandmd

There was a coke commercial that sang "America the Beautiful" in many different languages.

5:47 pm

Rows

i was never calling anyone here an idiot... my wording must've been off and misinterpreted

5:47 pm

SamanthaJoy

I recommend backing away slowly, Molly

5:47 pm

phandmd

and apparently many people feel that song should only be sung in English.

5:47 pm

Rows

you reminded me of that... not *you* reminding me of idiots... what you were saying reminded me of those things i'd heard

5:47 pm

flosey

that does happen here occasionally, unfortunately

5:48 pm

Rows

not in a way like, you're an idiot like them... never EVER meant it like that at ALL

5:48 pm

Rows

does that make sense?

5:48 pm

Rows

just what you were saying about us each having our own interpretation of everyone having their own take on English

5:49 pm

SamanthaJoy

I'd say you have probably calmed the lynch mob, Rows

5:49 pm

phandmd

I for one am glad to undertand what you really meant to say.

5:49 pm

lilliann
