My computer has been down for a few days.....Molly tried to help me get Lickety List last night.....I was too tired to try.....I need to know how to bring Liclety to the left side of screen. Help please....thanks

1:07 am

flosey

Peach, have you clicked on Lickety's Babble Clues under the tile stats?

1:07 am

broll

control N will bring up a second window, in which you can go to lickety. Then size both windows

1:08 am

flosey

but does that give you 2 separate windows, broll? meaning you have to type each word in both?

1:09 am

broll

I click and drag at the edges to size

1:09 am

gapeach

Yes, flosey, it clicks off this page and leaves the List.

1:09 am

flosey

ah, so frustrating, very sorry, I don't know how to help

1:09 am

gapeach

Thanks much, broll.

1:10 am

broll

no, you have babble in your original window, and lickety in the other.

1:11 am

gapeach

Yes, broll.

1:11 am

flosey

ah, so when you type the word in Hide 'Add', it automatically goes into Lickety's List?

1:13 am

gapeach

No, I can't get anything to go to Lickety, flosey. I'm trying to drag the clues to the left side now.

1:13 am

broll

I don't know flosey, I only use lickety for reference until I am 3/4 done, then I copy/paste from babble to fill in and find the blanks to finish.

1:14 am

flosey

there is another way, see Bulk Add at bottom of Lickety's list - I don't remember how to use it but maybe you can make sense of it?

1:15 am

broll

I mean after I am 3/4 done. DUH!

1:16 am

flosey

understood what you were saying, so that's another way to transfer the words, interesting

1:17 am

ARB

Gapeach, do you have the Lickety's stand-alone program BabbleExpert which is not part of a browser? Or I should ask - is this what you had?

1:17 am

broll

yes, I copy list to excel, then just copy words column to lickety , paste from clipboard, then add bulk

1:18 am

helensgirlkid

I just copy my word list, paste it into that Bulk add box in Lickety, and check that the last word in the list didn't get lost!

1:20 am

ARB

If you send an email to Lickety, he will send you the program. This is his email: licketySplitAUS@gmail.com

1:22 am

broll

got it peach? back to the grid for me

1:22 am

flosey

half way, off to bed, goodnight all and good luck Peach

1:29 am

sprite

1:33 am

sprite

1:34 am

broll

you'll probably finish before me

1:34 am

sprite

hehehe not likely

1:34 am

broll

1:35 am

sprite

gapeach

Hi there, sprite. Will do.

1:55 am

*holds rose for a long, good hug* Yes I know you have to try. I know the feeling. How about promising yourself 2 full days free, starting tomorrow?

1:56 am

grannyrose

it's sad really as i love the ta5 of curries.

1:57 am

2:36 am

grannyrose

i am going to try and talk you through turning off auto correct. what device are you using at the moment?

2:36 am

gapeach

Yes, hon, I thought I answered but probably forgot. Right now I have them side by side but no way to get words from here to Lickety. I'm just doodleing along.

2:37 am

sprite

yes and then I asked, do you have the Babble Expert, or the babble website?

2:37 am

meliae

I do not want it off, it auto fills in words for me, I just get in a hurry sometimes and forget to check before I hit enter. Thank you though.

2:38 am

grannyrose

ah, no probs, mel.

2:38 am

gapeach

I have the Babble website, I suppose....is that what I'm typing on now?

2:39 am

sprite

no way for me to tell, peach. In the upper left corner, what does it say there?

2:39 am

meliae

Very handy when you want to type supercalifragillisticexpialidotious

2:39 am

gapeach

Babble: The Ultimate Word....

2:39 am

sprite

lol yeah, I type that daily as well :P

2:40 am

meliae

Or hyperconsupercoagulation.

2:40 am

sprite

right, that is the website. The website doesn't have a bulk add option at all.

2:40 am

flosey

quite a mouthful!

2:40 am

gapeach

OK

2:41 am

sprite

and then you have the lickety website as well. If you scroll all the way down, you will see two bigger boxes

2:41 am

meliae

http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html

2:41 am

grannyrose

flosey...hun...please....do i have your permission to give sarah your addy? there were 2 options in my post.

2:41 am

broll

I think that is what I have and there is a bulk add option at the bottom. see chog at 1:17 and 1:18

2:42 am

flosey

oh sorry rose, I wasn't clear, yes please and thankyou, send Sarah my addy.

2:43 am

grannyrose

2:43 am

sprite

peach, do you see the boxes? One says Bulk Add

2:43 am

gapeach

My peeps, I had my eyes dilated today and I probably shouldn't be straining them now. I do appreciate all of the help but I think I'd better come back later and try some more......Blessings y'all.

2:56 am

meliae

Wow Grats Sprite

2:56 am

lexi

2:56 am

juniperberet

If I go anywhere near mine while I'm typing, the cursor pretends it's a ouija board pointer.

5:12 am

Dachef

Do no think they need the bunnies anymore.

5:54 am

Interesting thing this morning, woke up and found another network on my computer. It didn't have access to anything. Think someone was trying to use my bandwidth. I scanned and nothing is out of order. Disabled the public one.

5:55 am

crosshair

I had that same thing happen to me last week, sukee. People are "waredrivng" looking for undecured bandwidth:(

5:55 am

crosshair

unsecured

5:55 am

grannyrose

oooohhh, sukee. good on you for running the scan. apparently there is a ring of russian peeps who are hacking to any site they can.

5:56 am

sukee

Mine is pretty secure, I guess that is why they could not get network access.

5:57 am

grannyrose

and my email provider lets me know when there is untoward activity. like when a hacker tried to access my email from the US of A.

5:57 am

sukee

I wouldn't have noticed but my browser was not loading so I checked. A lot might not.

5:57 am

sukee

Rogers tells us nothing :)

5:58 am

crosshair

I hate Rogers:(

5:58 am

crosshair

But I love their Unlimited internet packages

5:58 am

car.eeyore

JP Morgan bank got hit for 76 million customers' information.

5:58 am

car.eeyore

Not accounts, just name, phone and social securities

5:58 am

sukee

Yes, I never use 50% of my limit.

6:00 am

sukee

Just checked my usage is a bit higher already this month.

6:01 am

crosshair

I use roughly 250-290 gig/ month

6:02 am

sukee

Wow, my limit is 95 GB.

6:02 am

crosshair

I have no limit:)

6:03 am

crosshair

I stream netfix, cracle, discover, for my video entertainment. I cannot have a capped data plan

6:03 am

crosshair

It costs me $65/month plus tax

6:03 am

sukee

That is good, mine costs about that

6:04 am

crosshair

Crackle, discovery

6:04 am

crosshair

Ask for their fiber/lite unlimited plan.

6:05 am

sukee

Oh, my usage showing is from Sept 3 to Oct 3...whew.

6:06 am

sukee

I should look into that.

6:08 am

crosshair

When I cut my cable a year and a hal ago, I had to make sure I had the data I needed. That plan has paid for itself over and over.

6:08 am

crosshair

My old cable plan was costing me $90.00 per month plus tax

6:09 am

crosshair

By cancelling that I saved 1200/year. That pay not only for my internet, but also payed for the 51 inch HDTV smart tv that is in my livingroom

6:10 am

crosshair

1200 plus tx*

6:10 am

crosshair

paid

6:10 am

crosshair

6:12 am

grannyrose

oh, oh, oh, crossy...i finally finished Great Expectations. i am so glad i persisted.

6:12 am

crosshair

Sadly, it got to the point where I was paying $100 plus tax/month for 6 channels that I watched on a regular basis and could no longer justify it.

6:12 am

Except in my case there was a statute of limitations on my case of 5 years. They ran the clock right down, let our bills pile up sky high with lawyer fees and in the last 3 days put a pathetic offer out there we had no choice but to take.

6:24 am

car.eeyore

Per Se! Save your pennies!

8:54 am

Dorens

I am hopeful that October 28th will be cooler than June. And am going with my buddy who had a lobectomy a few months ago and just completed four rounds of chemo. So even though she is in super conditiion, she might be somewhat slowed down.

11:15 am

Dorens

nice that you are anticipating her illness. so, I'll bite. what are you making?

11:24 am

rururocks

i'm blanking on this.. let me think

11:25 am

stevedallas

11:28 am

rururocks

you working today Doren?

11:29 am

Dorens

man, i'm retired!! went to billy joel concert last night and slept real real late!

11:30 am

rururocks

oh.. good .. I wasn't sure if it was Sept or early october

11:30 am

rururocks

we sold a billy Joel package at the Auction i did a few weeks ago

11:30 am

Dorens

this whole month is just one big retirement party

11:31 am

rururocks

good for you.. live it up

11:31 am

Dorens

got really great seats for decent price behind stage but on the side... terrific sight lines and only about twenty rows up. he did quite well.

11:32 am

rururocks

I like some of his stuff.. not everything.. some things are a little too pop driven for me

11:33 am

rururocks

Bubbles met him in Oyster Bay a few years back with her daughter and grandkid

11:33 am

Dorens

agreed. but wow, he really wrote a lot of great songs. the ones i didn't like gave me a breather, otherwise we were up and rocking along - me and my 70 year old sister inlaw (longisland)

11:33 am

Dorens

he is such a longisland guy.
must have been fun for her

11:33 am

rururocks

she said he was really nice and friendly especially to the kid

11:34 am

Dorens

i've heard that. long island has billy, NJ has bruce. both apparently nice guys

11:35 am

rururocks

we just have creepy Neil Young

11:36 am

rururocks

although Bonnie Riatt lives in Marin

11:36 am

Dorens

hah! i really like his music. saw him in concert a few years ago.. he still has it

11:36 am

Dorens

ok i have all e's but the ep. is it fishy?

11:36 am

rururocks

yeah.. and a new girlfriend

11:37 am

Dorens

yup, heard about that too

11:37 am

Dorens

found it!

11:37 am

rururocks

ep 6 a fake or phoney persoin

11:37 am

rururocks

couldn't type it fast enough

11:38 am

Dorens

ok. down to 75 -- time to get some things done. But I'll be back (unlike last night , when I forgot to finish before I left and got home too late!)

11:39 am

rururocks

ta 6 with strings attached

11:39 am

Dorens

haha! i had that one. but good clue

11:39 am

rururocks

good luck with the dinner doren

11:39 am

Dorens

i'm off now. enjoy the day!
thanks

11:40 am

rururocks

i need to get down to 75 for now

11:52 am

MimiCat

Hey there, ruru!

11:52 am

rururocks

gm mimi

11:52 am

MimiCat

Loving these cool mornings now.

11:53 am

rururocks

good you've had a big heatwave

11:54 am

MimiCat

And big storms...lots of flooding. Our interstates and local roads looked like rivers for a couple of days. I, luckily, could stay home and just enjoy the rain, though I could have done without the unbelievably strong winds.

11:55 am

MimiCat

Trying to be patient until next year when I'm moving to the mountains!

11:56 am

rururocks

like where Sedona?

11:56 am

MimiCat

Close...a bit south and east--Payson.

11:57 am

MimiCat

Only an hour's drive from here so friends and family can visit but I won't be asked to babysit!

11:58 am

rururocks

oh I drove through payson

11:58 am

rururocks

real deserty

11:59 am

MimiCat

It's about 20 degrees cooler than here and feels more rural but not so far out that I can't access amenities. Told my realtor not to even bother showing me anything without a view.

12:00 pm

rururocks

realtors have a tendency to not really listen

12:00 pm

rururocks

I'm still training mine

12:02 pm

MimiCat

I really like mine. He has sent me exactly what I'm looking for...but couldn't move this year, so he'll be doing another search in the spring. He also set me up with good financing people.

12:04 pm

rururocks

how much do you have to finance?

12:05 pm

MimiCat

I won't know until I find the house, but it will be around $200,000.

12:06 pm

rururocks

I haven't decided if I should take a loan out or not.. on my end. I probably will as I'll need to modify some house for my wants

12:08 pm

MimiCat

Even though it's nice to not have to borrow, I think it's a good idea not to use up all available funds just in case you might need them. It's also nice to be able to get a few new things for a new house and, as you said, to make modifications that make you happy. The hardest thing so far for me is finding a really good kitchen.

12:10 pm

rururocks

that's kind of how if feel. I thought wow.. I can own a house without house payments.. but then I wouldn't have a lot of reserves.. probably will take out a small loan and have it for emergencies.

12:11 pm

MimiCat

Wise, ruru. Are you staying in Napa?

12:11 pm

rururocks

but we have to sell our current house first

12:11 pm

rururocks

yes.. I am going to buy a house in the town of Napa i think

12:12 pm

MimiCat

I so wish I could move to that area...pretty much anywhere in northern CA but it's too expensive for me...sigh.

12:13 pm

rururocks

it really is expensive here.. getting worse too

12:13 pm

rururocks

with Facebook and Twitter geeks overpaying for everything

12:14 pm

MimiCat

I've been here most of the last 30 yrs. and still miss CA every day. Moved here from Marina Del Rey.

12:15 pm

MimiCat

...just because I got married and he already had a house here.....first in a line of big mistakes...

12:16 pm

rururocks

oh

12:16 pm

rururocks

I couldn't live in So cal.. (maybe San Diego).. but certainly NOT LA

12:17 pm

rururocks

I just want a nice smaller house now.. had the big house thing.. now (being older) i want small and quiet

12:18 pm

MimiCat

I could not either now. But I was there in the 70s and it was still mostly OK. Now, though, people spend their lives on the freeways! I've always preferred northern CA....especially Carmel/Monterey.

12:19 pm

MimiCat

I hear 'ya...I had the big house and the "lifestyle" and now that I'm by myself and my life is less encumbered, I'm much happier. Of course, the divorce has a lot to do with that happiness!

12:20 pm

rururocks

i hope that's where i end up.. happy at the end of all of this

12:22 pm

MimiCat

I created my happiness after a lot of very difficult times and circumstances. Now I approach life from a place of gratitude and appreciate everything. The things/situations I don't have, I just don't dwell on. I've simply made up my mind that I'm going to focus on all I DO have and on moving forward.

12:23 pm

MimiCat

Not trying to be nosy, but I don't actually know what is happening with you...mind filling me in a bit? Only if you want to, of course.

12:25 pm

rururocks

i'm at the tail end of a divorce that seems to be dragging on forever and ever

12:28 pm

MimiCat

Sorry to hear that. My marriage dragged on for what seemed like forever but, fortunately, the divorce was very fast. Of course, I found out why it was so fast when I sold MY house (all I asked for in the divorce) and found out that was an IRS tax lien on it...five figures right off the top of that money to the government. I didn't know about that...I trusted my husband...big mistake...one among many.

12:29 pm

rururocks

no liens here.. but lots of complicated stuff. It has been a good thing that we're both working on it together and we're getting along, but just can't live together any longer

12:33 pm

MimiCat

My ex and I are kind of like brother and sister now...much better at being divorced than married. Once you're divorced, most of the problems are over, so just let 'em go. He still confides in me and I can count on him for help if I need it, so that's nice. It's good for the kids, too, since we all celebrate holidays together.

12:33 pm

rururocks

that is my hope

12:35 pm

MimiCat

...but don't get me started on his girlfriend...the woman he was seeing BEFORE we split. He thinks we should be friends...don't know what planet he thinks that will occur on! She's a real piece of work in many ways and now is making him very unhappy. I don't take any delight in that, though...would like to see him happy.

12:37 pm

MimiCat

Do you have kids, ruru?

12:39 pm

rururocks

no kids

12:39 pm

rururocks

and I'm not 'seeing" anyone until it is finalized

12:40 pm

rururocks

But I do want to get on with my life with the New Year.. somehow

12:41 pm

MimiCat

Wise decision. I haven't been involved with anyone on a relationship level since the divorce...10 years ago. I fear I'm more than a little "gun shy."

12:42 pm

rururocks

yeah.. i hear that. I don't know what I want .. so i'm not doing anything until I figure out what kind of person I want to be with going forward.. or not being with some one and just having friends to do stuff with

12:44 pm

MimiCat

I have been actively NOT looking. For me to even consider being in a relationship again I'd have to find someone VERY special and I don't see that happening. But I could be wrong...I was wrong once!

12:45 pm

rururocks

yeah.. I think that if you don't work on what draws you to a certain type of person.. you're doomed to repeat past mistakes.

12:45 pm

rururocks

Although I can't say our marriage was a mistake.. we were very happy for many years.. it just changed in the last ten

12:46 pm

rururocks

I'm happy we're still friends and are helping each other and getting back to being supportive of each other

12:47 pm

rururocks

it's been a long road though so far

12:47 pm

rururocks

sorry for rattling on

12:49 pm

MimiCat

Not at all...I am totally here for you!

12:49 pm

rururocks

i'll shut up now..

12:50 pm

MimiCat

My em address is in my profile if you ever want to talk or vent, whatever. Happy to listen and share insights.

12:50 pm

rururocks

thanks

12:52 pm

MimiCat

Gotta get some work done. Hang in there, ruru....it will all be over soon and then you can reinvent your life and make it better! Big hug.

4:51 pm

As I was leaving the kids last weekend, Son of Soodle got a bit upset... I think he had compartmentallised (sp?) his life. Then, when I went over, the two worlds collided and he found it hard to cope. End up ... he is coming home tomorrow morning, and guess who has to be up at 5.00am to collect him from the airport. And for once, I'm not moaning.

5:00 pm

meliae

N's done

5:00 pm

Just make sure he doesn't arrive with the usual bottle of vodka, insist on your favourite tipple.

5:14 pm

Soodle

Hiya Molls :-) I don't think Son of Soodle has deliberately compartmentalised his life. I think his coping mechanism for being away from home is to not think of home when he is not there. So, when 'home' came to his 'work' life, I think he was caught unawares, and it freaked him a bit. Or maybe he just drank too much beer that night. Either way, he is coming home tomorrow, and that is good.

5:16 pm

MollyL

As a society, we didn't used to move so far away from our families. That was the gist of the conversation that I was in, that some people feel fragmented when that happens.

Emigration has been part of Irish society since the Great Famine. Every family knows the pain of separation. It's only in very recent years that Skype, cheap air travel and Facebook have taken some of the pain away

9:36 pm

stidmama

hey all

9:39 pm

Bugsaw

hey stid. How was your day?

9:39 pm

stidmama

better than I feared, stranger than I hoped. Grant had a posse at the hospital! LOL

9:40 pm

Bugsaw

love those posses!

9:40 pm

Bugsaw

I take it the surgery went well for him. How long will he be out of commission for doing the dishes?

9:40 pm

Bugsaw

steno

9:40 pm

Bugsaw

oops

9:41 pm

stidmama

The GF was in one of her moods all day... refused to eat when I said that we didn't have time to go back to our house to get a cookie she had bought for her breakfast... although what she needed was food to help her with the medication she had just taken (they arrived 15 minutes late at our house...).

9:41 pm

stidmama

*sigh* She is somewhat weak in the communication department, and doesn't express the opinions she needs.

9:41 pm

stidmama

Surgery went well, he rarely does dishes anyway -- or yard work, or house work.

9:42 pm

stidmama

But construction work is going to be "out" I believe for quite a while.

9:42 pm

Bugsaw

a cookie is not a healthy breakfast anyway but why didn't she bring it with her? Too heavy?

9:43 pm

Bugsaw

I have seen pictures of him in the garden helping but never doing dishes. I was kidding about that.

9:44 pm

stidmama

She forgot it in her car, and since we were late AND still needed to stop for gas, I didn't want to turn around. When I specifically asked if there was a compelling reason, she said no... and she COULD have purchased another cookie when we stopped for gas... but still. *sigh*

9:47 pm

Bugsaw

I am with you. Surgeons don't like to be kept waiting and her presence was not necessary so she should have been more grateful anyway --- not that I have an opinion or anything. heehee

9:47 pm

stidmama

oh well. how's the head cheese business?

9:48 pm

stidmama

The sad part is, the traffic was VERY light this morning (unusual) and we got there about 15 minutes early. THEN it was another two hours before they took him back for the surgery.

9:48 pm

stidmama

Exactly. Grant was so happy to have her there, and his friend "Skippy" and his best buddy since third grade as well as Tom and me. We kept things lively.

9:49 pm

stidmama

But I think the whole staff was surprised there were so many people for such a simple surgery. LOL

9:50 pm

Bugsaw

I am sure she could have found something to eat once you arrived. When I know I need food nothing stops me until I get it.

9:50 pm

stidmama

*proud babbler look* I just found the pi 7 pepper by myself!

9:51 pm

Bugsaw

Poor Skippy to be named Skippy. Did that come from the show with the Dad that called his son Dumbass and his friends Skippy>

9:51 pm

stidmama

I think there are some people who will take care of their needs and some who relish the attention they get when they do not... I am trying to let her alone when she does things like this, hoping a lack of attention will cause her to diminish instances.

9:51 pm

Bugsaw

thanks for the clue. I have to find 206 in 2 hours...

9:51 pm

stidmama

Skippy is a girl... :-)

9:52 pm

Bugsaw

ok, but still, poor Skippy to be called Skippy

9:52 pm

Bugsaw

nets

9:53 pm

stidmama

she doesn't mind. I think the TV show is well before her time (and probably mine?)

9:53 pm

Bugsaw

oh nuts. I am sorry. Shutting up now

9:53 pm

stidmama

yes. *puts gingered pears in the PB*

9:53 pm

Bugsaw

thanks

10:07 pm

stidmama

okay. Exactly halfway. Good enough for such a long day. Back another time. have a lovely weekend, all! *poof*

rururocks

10:25 pm

Dorens

you dont know enough grannies?

10:25 pm

rururocks

I only want certain people to stay.. i'm picky

10:26 pm

Dorens

10:26 pm

rururocks

I wish My grannie were still alive

10:26 pm

rururocks

you're gonna freak when you see the wine cellar

10:27 pm

Dorens

i can only imagine! But I wouldn't freak. I expect something incredible... after Ken's, not much would freak me. You know so much more about wine than he did.

10:27 pm

rururocks

I'll save this comment and show it to you later

10:30 pm
