all the 8's are done now

12:37 am

rururocks

12:38 am

negativeneil

Yep.

12:40 am

negativeneil

And a couple other characters.

12:40 am

rururocks

the ah6 is nothing to sneeze at

12:40 am

negativeneil

I have some good photos of a scarecrow and cowardly lion from a production many years ago.

12:41 am

negativeneil

Played by the same kid, at different times. Well, kinda hard to play both at the same time. :P

12:41 am

negativeneil

And actually yes, it is. :P

12:41 am

ARB

gesundheit, ru

12:43 am

rururocks

12:44 am

dizgrannie

ru do you have an 7?

12:44 am

rururocks

oh.. found it

12:44 am

rururocks

that was it

12:44 am

rururocks

I had my finger on the dyke for that one

12:45 am

dizgrannie

lol

12:46 am

negativeneil

Hey ARB. :)

12:47 am

rururocks

I get away with murder here sometimes

12:47 am

Uneaixoise

whew . . . red boxes of doom followed by comcast down-- jeeomeez

12:47 am

negativeneil

Who have you killed?

12:47 am

negativeneil

Hey Une. :)

12:47 am

negativeneil

And... yikes.

12:47 am

ARB

Shalom Neil

12:47 am

Uneaixoise

hey neil :-)

12:47 am

negativeneil

shalom uvracha, ARB.

12:48 am

ARB

And Shana Tova. Happy New Year to all those who do not know any Hebrew

12:49 am

negativeneil

L'shanah Tova!

12:49 am

Lizlin

Shana Tova, ARB and others who celebrate it now.

12:49 am

negativeneil

And to you, Lizlin.

12:49 am

ARB

May it be a year of peace.

12:49 am

Lizlin

And to you too, Neil.

12:49 am

Lizlin

From your lips ...

12:50 am

negativeneil

todah raba. :)

12:51 am

negativeneil

That would be nice, ARB. Sigh.

12:52 am

ARB

It's a sad commentary that we all have to sigh when we pray for peace -- it is much too elusive these days.

12:53 am

rururocks

ph 7

12:53 am

rururocks

for those trooping around

12:53 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Ru :)

12:54 am

saanichcat

thanks ru from me too

12:56 am

negativeneil

Sadly too true, ARB.

12:59 am

negativeneil

And I'm sorry, Arb... only just realized you're female. Maybe that didn't show on your profile before?

12:59 am

rururocks

ch 6 .. if you want to break bread

12:59 am

negativeneil

or else I just wasn't observant enough.

12:59 am

negativeneil

Yes ru... good Jewish word there. :)

12:59 am

negativeneil

That was one of the first I found.

1:00 am

Lizlin

I'm just not spelling it right then!!! I can see the word but not the spelling - if that makes sense.

1:00 am

ARB

Neil, should it make a difference? Only grammatically!

1:00 am

Lizlin

Got it!!!

1:00 am

negativeneil

Well usually I see it with a double L, if that's what you mean, Lizlin? But there is no correct spelling, since it's transliteration.

1:01 am

negativeneil

Exactly, ARB.

1:01 am

negativeneil

But now I know. ;)

1:01 am

Lizlin

Exactly what I meant!

1:02 am

negativeneil

yeah, well... it's just transliteration. So both are equally acceptable. It would look pretty strange without that last consonant though. Like the variants of "Hanukkah".

1:02 am

Lizlin

Or with the Ashkenazi pronunciation - with an o as the 3rd letter - tried that too!

1:02 am

negativeneil

That just looks strange to me.

1:02 am

Lizlin

Strange how many transliterations are accepted.

1:02 am

Lizlin

Me too.

1:02 am

rururocks

finished

1:02 am

negativeneil

yep.

1:03 am

Lizlin

It's a London pronunciation - not one I used.

1:03 am

Lizlin

Congrats, Ru.

1:03 am

cybernan

not seeing any of the 8's, but enough for tonight :-)

1:03 am

rururocks

you don't have to Challah liz

1:03 am

negativeneil

chanuka, chanukka, chanukah, chanukah, chankkah... plus all without the "c" too.

1:03 am

rururocks

:D

1:03 am

negativeneil

Mazel, ru!

1:03 am

rururocks

*bows lowly*

1:03 am

negativeneil

Oy. :P grrroan.

1:04 am

Lizlin

Sleep well, Nan

1:04 am

Lizlin

Or without the h - becomes a bride!

1:05 am

negativeneil

Spelling is everything.

1:05 am

negativeneil

Actually, punctuation too... in English.

1:05 am

Lizlin

Eats shoots and leaves - indeed!

1:05 am

negativeneil

Let's eat, grandma! Let's eat grandma!

1:06 am

negativeneil

And that too. :P

1:06 am

negativeneil

Shouldn't he shoot first, then eat?

1:06 am

Lizlin

Taking a break - have a good night all of you in the States.

1:06 am

negativeneil

You too, Lizlin.

1:06 am

negativeneil

When it's night there. :P

1:08 am

negativeneil

ru?

1:08 am

rururocks

brides eat shoots and leaves?

1:08 am

rururocks

did you marry a panda?

1:08 am

rururocks

yes neil

1:08 am

negativeneil

dart is lurking.

1:08 am

rururocks

oh.. he always lurks

1:08 am

rururocks

I think he turns off the chat

1:08 am

negativeneil

I didn't marry anyone... yet.

1:09 am

negativeneil

That's too bad... wonder why?

1:09 am

rururocks

I wish he'd chat again.. he was fun to banter with

1:09 am

negativeneil

Yeah. :(

1:10 am

negativeneil

email.

1:22 am

dizgrannie

Hi again, back for my last 6

1:26 am

dizgrannie

FWs

1:50 am

sprite

morning all

1:51 am

grannyrose

cooee and g'gay from me. {{hugs}} darling sprite. hope you have had a good night, dear.

1:52 am

sprite

*hugs rose* I did, thank you :) And how was your day?

1:52 am

grannyrose

busy, but not sore busy. know what i mean? i took it all in stages, with lots of rests

1:53 am

sprite

well done!

1:53 am

grannyrose

i called on don a lot. when he said what do you want me to do? i promptly gave him a job to to.

1:54 am

sprite

that is perfect. Works like a charm, doesn't it? :)

1:54 am

sprite

phantom: nylon

1:55 am

grannyrose

i used to think i should let him get on with his 'stuff'. but i suddenly thought, hang on a tick...he uses this bed, bathroom, kitchen too.

1:56 am

sprite

exactly. His 'stuff' can wait for a bit, just as yours can when you are doing house work. And he is willing to help. Just needs clear instructions on what exactly.

1:56 am

grannyrose

*giggle* sprite, i struggled with animation...it's not there, truly it isn't!

1:56 am

sprite

of course, I checked straight after your post. And of course, you were 100% right. Thanks for putting that one in my eyes!

1:57 am

grannyrose

lolol, np's. anything for a friend. wanna see what i do to an enemy?

1:57 am

sprite

sweetheart, with friends like yours, you don't need enemies, lolol

1:58 am

grannyrose

*nodding* too true.

1:58 am

grannyrose

but i loves ya all to pieces. btw have you heard from our pugs lately.

1:58 am

sprite

madman is another phantom

1:59 am

grannyrose

and macadamia

1:59 am

sprite

no, not lately, rose. She is so utterly busy with keeping the farm running while working her job. But Barb is pitching in more often now, she is doing so much better now that the bozo has left the building.

1:59 am

sprite

ohhhh wouldn't that have been a beautiful babble word! Macadamia... yummy.

2:01 am

sprite

so we have a titman and a ballboy, but no handman?

2:01 am

grannyrose

oh, that's wonderful, sprite. i had a gut feeling that bozo was holding her back.

2:02 am

sprite

you too? Yeah, same here. Apart from the constant stress, pugs thinks he may have been giving her bad food as well. Sweets and stuff.

2:02 am

grannyrose

well we knew that, love. that was why her BSL's were out of whack all the time.

2:03 am

sprite

yes. The smallminded, evil spirited so-and-so. I didn't like him anyway, but for doing that, I am willing to hate him/

2:04 am

grannyrose

ditto

2:05 am

sprite

name that proper noun: country famous for its bacon

2:05 am

grannyrose

ummmm...canada??

2:06 am

sprite

ding ding ding! You win the toaster!

2:06 am

grannyrose

but i don't want a toaster....i want the bottle of wine....

2:07 am

sprite

*opens the shop with prizes for rose* Here mylady, pick and choose!

2:07 am

grannyrose

ooohhhh...* snuffle, snort, sniff*

2:08 am

grannyrose

TRUFFLES!!! they are mine...

2:08 am

sprite

*looks left and right, sees coast is clear, and points rose to the very old and expensive port wine*

2:09 am

grannyrose

but, but,....oh alright...*pouting* port is then. do i have to share?

2:09 am

sprite

grab both, nobody is looking

2:10 am

grannyrose

hmmm...port and truffles...yummy. wanna share?

2:10 am

sprite

definitely :D

2:10 am

grannyrose

one for you, two for me, one for you, two for me....

2:11 am

sprite

oooo found the flower.

2:11 am

grannyrose

yay sprite

2:11 am

sprite

that is sweet of you, rose, to sacrifice yourself in order to save my health...

2:13 am

grannyrose

what??? oh, of course....anything for my friend, sprite

2:13 am

sprite

hehehe :D

2:15 am

sprite

looks like a sneaky grid. Am slowing down before halfway. In stead of at 2/3.

2:15 am

grannyrose

quite a few twisty, nasties in it, sprite.

2:16 am

grannyrose

did you find ah6, alternative spelling of a sneeze?

2:16 am

sprite

must confess I like those.

2:17 am

sprite

lol no, thanks for that one

2:17 am

grannyrose

and now, i will not clue anymore. that was my final offering.

2:17 am

sprite

I tried yolo though. Am I being a perfect teenager's mother or what?

2:18 am

grannyrose

oh no....roflol.

2:19 am

sprite

close to da4ation.

2:21 am

grannyrose

very close...*giggle*

2:21 am

sprite

and pothole

2:24 am

sprite

if we'd have donated a cent to babble for every phantom we spotted, we'd be able to have that worldwide babble reunion right now, lol.

2:24 am

grannyrose

yeah, and what fun it would be.

2:26 am

sprite

wouldn't it :)

2:26 am

grannyrose

what have you got on your agenda today, sprite?

2:28 am

sprite

I have an appt with the diabetes nurse at 11. And an excursion to Mt. Washmore after that. And practice for the singing lessons. I think that must be all.

2:28 am

jwr

allo allo - just popped in to say that.

2:28 am

sprite

how about you, rose? What are your plans for tomorrow?

2:28 am

sprite

allo allo jwr :) Nice to see you.

2:28 am

jwr

Sprite, that is the craziest schedule I ever heard of. Hope it's real

2:28 am

grannyrose

i would think that is more than enough...

2:29 am

sprite

it is totally real, lol.

2:29 am

grannyrose

allo, allo jwr. ;-)

2:29 am

jwr

Oops, going again. Back later. Proud to have found the Sanscrit design.

2:29 am

sprite

well done, jwr. Bye!

2:29 am

jwr

byeeeeee

2:29 am

grannyrose

byeeee jwr. thanx for dropping in.

2:30 am

sprite

funny to have or4 and an4 together.

2:31 am

grannyrose

btw sprite, could you please send me that link for the tulips via email. i lost it!!

2:31 am

sprite

of course darling

2:32 am

grannyrose

i'm such a klux...

2:34 am

sprite

there you are, and no you are not. Easy to lose clues in babble, lol.

2:37 am

grannyrose

thanx dear. i think it was the first. but have kept them both.

2:38 am

sprite

good :D

2:40 am

grannyrose

btw, did i tell you i was out weeding the garden today? perfect weather...overcast with a light breeze. i find it easier bending over..

2:41 am

sprite

omg rose, that is so awesome! Those infusions work miracles on you. Am so so very happy for you!

2:42 am

grannyrose

but with don behind me, goosing me, it was a little distracting...rub out little...don sensitive to words like little and small....lol

2:42 am

sprite

roflololllll

2:42 am

grannyrose

ROFLOLOL

2:46 am

sprite

lol my son is singing. And he just can't sing. Can't carry a tune if it came in a bucket. So sweet.

2:46 am

grannyrose

let him alone, sprite...it means he is content...

2:47 am

sprite

oh I just enjoy it, I don't bug him at all. I love hearing it, because you are right, it means he is feeling happy.

2:47 am

grannyrose

xxxxx to Tim...

2:48 am

grannyrose

but don't you dare tell him that!

2:48 am

sprite

:)

2:48 am

sprite

I won't, lol. Though he is a great hugger... you will find out next year.

2:49 am

sprite

pfew, finally 2/3

2:49 am

grannyrose

looking forward to it, sprite. please warn your offspring grannyrose is very much a touchy person.

2:50 am

grannyrose

i love hugs, kisses and hot toast.

2:50 am

sprite

oh you will fit right in. We are all very touchy feely peeps. We hug when coming, going and in between. Often for no reason at all too.

2:50 am

sprite

I love hugs, kisses and hot men.

2:51 am

grannyrose

as it is in our household...i will not allow don to go out with the words ' i love you ' ringing in his ears.

2:51 am

grannyrose

ugh...* without *

2:52 am

sprite

ah, right. I was rereading that a couple of times, lol. Yes, same here.

2:52 am

grannyrose

i would hate to think the last thing he ever heard from me was okay, dear.

2:53 am

sprite

oh rose, I ordered myself a waterproof molton for my bed and it arrived this weekend. Put it on my bed yesterday night and I did sleep more relaxed.

2:53 am

grannyrose

nice, sprite

2:54 am

sprite

yeah we are the same. Always hugging and saying sweet stuff. Walking hand in hand. The works.

2:55 am

grannyrose

ditto here. don and i always pray with our hands linked.

2:56 am

sprite

aw that is beautiful! Rob doesn't really pray, he says he is an unbeliever. Which isn't true, lol, but his faith is an inner one.

2:56 am

grannyrose

i hope it gives you many nights of unstressed sleep, sprite

2:56 am

sprite

I hope so too, rose! If tonight was an indication, it works.

2:56 am

grannyrose

praying for that, sprite

2:57 am

sprite

thank you, dear friend

2:59 am

sprite

second wind!

3:01 am

grannyrose

sorry, dear. i never answered your question re my tomorrow. just another attempt to get the clean laundry under control. so not a lot...if the weather is kind i will weed the garden some more...hopefully without don distracting me..

3:02 am

sprite

or hopefully with Don distracting you, grin. Nothing wrong with that.

3:03 am

sprite

ok, I must get ready for the sugar nurse. *hugs*, sweet dreams tonight and no cramps, and enjoy your day tomorrow.

3:03 am

grannyrose

roflol...sprite!! but i have to acknowledge you are right...love don's distractions.

3:03 am

sprite

and to you all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.

3:03 am

grannyrose

xoxox my dear. i hope your day is kind to you.

3:50 am

Dachef

am I having a particularly thick day or is this grid an absolute bitch?

3:50 am

grannyrose

dachef...it is a grid which is bitchy...can i help you?

3:52 am

grannyrose

lots of twisty nasty words, mate

3:52 am

Dachef

no, cheers. I'll plod on. Only got down to 36 before I had no choice but to list. I usually aim for 90% before I list so I'm way off today.

3:53 am

grannyrose

ditto dachef...i was down to 95 words before i listed...

4:16 am

grannyrose

and i am outta here...hope all who follow have a lovely time in the grid. xoxox

4:44 am

we just celebrated our 21st:)

7:10 am

Trifioso

my beloved and I had to move my log splitter this weekend, so his landlord could borrow it. THREE trips to the hardware store and one VERY harrowing car ride later, mission was accomplished. We were so wound up we ended up going out for drinks at the VERY wicked hour of 3 pm. I had not really eaten much, and ended up pretty dang hammered by 4:30. Had to go have a little lie down....

7:10 am

Trifioso

congratulations! That is really something - wow, 21 years! I bow....

7:11 am

crosshair

you have your very own log-splitter?? I am impressed! :)

7:11 am

Trifioso

I do indeed, and I know how to use it, and I have done! Split 15 trees last time....

7:11 am

lol, short day

7:11 am

Nothing finer than a woman who cuts and split her own wood and can match you drink for drink when you are out tearing up the town:))

7:12 am

It was just sad. I am TERRIBLE at driving with things in tow...

7:12 am

Log splitting yes. Drinks wise, Mother Theresa could drink me under the table

7:13 am

I have never been able to back a boat down a launch ramp without 5 goes at it:(

7:13 am

Trifioso

THAT is just it, crossy! I can't back up at all. Not even with the trailer hitched to the mower. I just can't get the hang of cutting the wheel correctly

7:14 am

crosshair

jeep makes it easy; I just drive the entire thing into 3 feet of water, untie the boat, let it float off and drive the entire thing back to the parking area lol

heh heh....have always been supersensitive to pokes in the upper arm....guess it was due to the fascia....

7:46 pm

penquis

it's weird...i recently looked up the cost of a ventriloquist's dummy (for one of my great nephews) and now, wherever i go on the internet, i see adds for dummies....it's like i am being haunted!
