And now it is time for Crossy's quote of the day!!
5:51 am
crosshair
"Ring the bells that can still ring; forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything--That's how the light gets in."--Leonard Cohen
5:52 am
crosshair
I really like that one:)
5:57 am
Scrabbler
I got here in time to see Crossy's tidbit of the day. Yay.
5:59 am
car.eeyore
Me too! Highlight of my day
6:03 am
crosshair
Howdy, scrabby:)
6:08 am
car.eeyore
Again, I must protest, "assed" is a word. For example, I am a big assed woman.
6:09 am
crosshair
hyphenated is the problem "big-assed"
6:10 am
car.eeyore
And isn't a feather pillow rated by it's downiness?
6:10 am
crosshair
lol. I like that
6:10 am
car.eeyore
These...these are the questions that haunt me at night!
6:11 am
crosshair
Well. people have been trying to crack the pillow conundrum for years:)
6:11 am

My anxiety last night, as I tried to fall asleep, was that I didn't have WiFi. I had an internet connection per my carrier but something wasn't working. This morning I reset my router and reconnected the modem and router, and voila, I am back in cyberspace!
6:13 am
crosshair
Ineeed, scrabby. i reset my router on a regular monthy basis for just that reason. cleans things out
6:13 am
crosshair
Indeed*
6:13 am
car.eeyore
It is so annoying when that happens, but then I remember that we didn't used to even have wifi and just laugh at our "evolution".
6:14 am
crosshair
First world issues:)
6:15 am
car.eeyore
Do either of you have the GN 6?
6:15 am
crosshair
! tell the kids in class how we used to study with piles of encyclopedias stacked around us at the library, and I get a blank stare back. Or how you had to go the the newspaper or archive office and get all bleary-eyed looking through micro-film records
6:16 am

A real beautiful peri is when it all happens within the same logged minute in the chog:)
6:18 am

hey scrabs -- bunnies still recovering well?
6:18 am
Uneaixoise
true crossy! LOL
6:19 am
crosshair
What happened to the bunnies??
6:19 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Remy finally came out of his cage. This morning he came upstairs when I got up, so I am relieved. Gulliver is running around his room like a nut and I cannot catch him to give him his pain med. He probably doesn't need it.
6:20 am
Uneaixoise
they got de-manly surgery :-)
6:20 am
Uneaixoise
sounds like all is well, scrabs :-)
6:20 am
Scrabbler
Remy was castrated. Gulliver had a skin growth excised. $856 for Mama.

Uneaixoise
off to grab more caffeine . . .
6:24 am
crosshair
it is funny; I no longer do well on caffeine. I never really cared for coffee, and was mostly a tea drinker, but now I find that a nice glass of fresh juice does it for me in the morning, although i still enjoy an odd tea on the week-ends now that I have the patio set up and the mrs and I can sit and watch the day come to life around us in the morning:)
6:25 am
crosshair
mm, bit of a run-on there. need some juice. brb
6:25 am
Scrabbler
I have a mug of coffee in the morning and no more after that. Sometimes I stop coffee and have tea.

ne 9/78 clue please
6:47 am
Lizlin
Hi Molly - interesting icon - recognise it of course - are they out there again?
6:48 am
Lizlin
Or does it just serve as a reminder?
6:50 am
Aloyisius
bad connection, have to stop for a while.. ne9 starts with what is in the morning paper and ends with the Loch **** monster
6:50 am
Lizlin
Thanks Aloy - could've sworn I tried that earlier.
6:54 am
MollyL
A reminder Liz. Words...and pictures...are easily used to fool people on the internet. And JC and company are not the only ones that do such things.
6:55 am
Lizlin
I have no problems with reminding people of how anonymous the internet really is!
6:57 am
MollyL
Fortunately, there are a lot of ways to expose internet fakers. It's been my experience that sooner or later, they all get found out.
6:58 am
Lizlin
As time goes by I have become much more wary and cynical about what I read on the internet.
7:00 am
Lizlin
And of course it's not difficult to mislead others by falsifying your country of origin through a vpn or tor.
7:02 am
MollyL
Over the years, I have seen some very nice people get deceived and lied to on internet discussion boards. It's sad that there are people who feel the need to do this.
7:03 am
Lizlin
I agree but it's also sad that people can be gullible - but that's often because of kindheartedness or loneliness. Still I
7:03 am
Lizlin
I'd rather be thought to be uncaring that be deceived by what goes on out there!
7:07 am
MollyL
I don't think it's uncaring to be discerning. Gullible is a good word. Some people will believe anything.
7:07 am
Lizlin
Uncaring's not the right word - but I'd try to warn people against being taken in by what they read.
7:08 am
Lizlin
You beat me to it - I realised uncaring wasn't the right word!
7:08 am
MollyL
Sadly, older people seem to be the ones who get fooled the most.
7:09 am
Lizlin
I think younger people are much more aware of computers and generally social media.
7:09 am
Lizlin
Uses and misuses.
7:09 am
Lizlin
That goes for telephone cold calls too.
7:14 am
Lizlin
Back tomorrow to finish this grid. 42 left - enjoy your day, Molly and others in the UK, US and Canada.

7:42 am

Mixed. May spoil the country feel of the town, which drew us here in the first place.
7:42 am
Uneaixoise
bichon, earlier she said Remy was doing well :-))
7:43 am
Trifioso
I feel encouraged, actually - I have lived here, on and off, since I was four, and I have long been jealous of the neighboring towns where people can walk without fear of people driving their Chrysler leBehemoths while on their phones.
7:43 am
Trifioso
Drive down the driftway, or Main street in Hingham - every day there are tons of people walking along, chatting and greeting neighbors, etc. Looks so friendly. I welcome that factor.
7:44 am

Might also be a help to businesses and other resources near town center.

Molly's mind is in the gutter today. Then again, why should today be any different?
10:01 am

I think in the right circumstances and after a few drinks, Judi would do that

Yay found an 9 by myself
10:16 am
MollyL
You don't refer to them as pommes frites? How un-snooty of you
10:17 am
Judi
Freedom fries were trendy for a while.
10:18 am
MollyL
Yeah, but now trendy is gluten free and anything with kale or quinoa
10:19 am
Judi
I prefer my kale with agent orange, thank you.

good morning everyone

Hi nan join the fun
10:20 am

Kale is an evil weed that needs to be eliminated from the planet.
10:20 am

I wonder in Germany if people who have gluten issues say gluten tag at night
10:21 am

Quinoa is reallyu good for you but it doesn't taste like much
10:21 am
cybernan
ty for the chat clues -- didn't have the no 7 - stupid word!
10:21 am
MollyL
Harry, just for the record, your do9...like a baby duck...is a valid word in most major dictionaries. Just not ancient Enable.
10:22 am
MollyL
Same thing could be said for kale. Doesn't taste like much. Except maybe shrubbery.
10:23 am
cybernan
around here you need a cast iron stomach for trendy -- all the local chefs seem to add either wasabi or chipotle to everything
10:23 am
Judi
Chipotle.... ptui!
10:23 am
MollyL
And tofu...really good for you...tastes like rubber
10:24 am
bichon
With tofu you have to add lots of seasoning or put in soup
10:25 am
rururocks
with sheet rock you can add a lot of seasoning and it tastes better than tofu
10:26 am
MollyL
Well, if you add wasabi, anything you make will taste like...wasabi
10:26 am

I wish the food industry would go back 50 years to organic non GMO food -- ever noticed how much better it tastes? -- especially the organic beef
10:28 am
MollyL
Um, Nan, in 1965 the food industry was promoting the most unhealthy food we've ever seen.
10:28 am
MollyL
Shake And Bake anyone?
10:29 am
cybernan
ok, then go back 70 years or more. In the 60's we always ate out of our on veggie garden

10:33 am
MollyL
Eating out of a vegetable garden is great. But that is not what the food industry was promoting.
10:34 am
Judi
TV dinners! When the food tasted just like the aluminum container. Yum. Those were the good old days.
10:35 am
MollyL
The neat round spaghetti you can eat with a spoon...uh oh Spaghetti-O's!!
10:35 am
Judi
And let us never forget... SPAM.
10:35 am
cybernan
never paid much attention to what the food industry was promoting -- my point was that in the 50's and 60's you could get good quality veggies and fruits at the market --- it's is nice to see that coming back. Now if we could just buy flour that comes from grain that hasn't been doctored with a bunch of pesticides and other chemicals that would be lovely.
10:36 am
MollyL
Well we would have to go back to family owned markets for that and they have all been run out of town by the big chains.
10:37 am
Judi
Sigh. My granfather own a Red and White Store. It was aw7.
10:37 am
MollyL
You can get fresh fruit and vegetables there. Fresh when they were picked three weeks ago before they got on a truck and rode several hundred miles to your grocery store.
10:37 am
cybernan
we still have farmer's markets and roadside stands all summer, thank goodness.
10:38 am

I buy as much locally grown produce as I can in the summer and flash freeze a lot of it for use during the colder months.

Someone who fake posted here and got a lot of people to believe he was real, when he wasn't. The picture is actually Jun Matsumoto, a Japanese actor.
10:41 am

did anyone ever find the culprit re NB? I gather from comments after that the same person has assumed other identities as well
10:41 am
MLFAN17
what do you mean by fake posted?
10:42 am
ivesy3
didnt he supposedly die too?
10:43 am
cybernan
yes - and without ever reconciling with his imaginary family who threw him out because he was gay
10:43 am

We were either a sociological experiment or a victim of a sociopath. I can't decide which.

my mom was in a chat room once and a woman started taking and mentioned she was pregnant I think with twins or something People sent her money and gifts and she wasn't even pregnant
10:51 am

I've seen that sort of thing on discussion boards for years. And yes, it is a sick person's way of getting attention.
10:52 am

That happened to a lot of us when we sent money to someone who had taken up a collection for Mr. P. Someone who had played here for quite a while. Just took the money and ran.
10:52 am

she still plays here judi
10:53 am

enough for the twins zooz :D
10:54 am
Judi
I'll be damned. The gall of some people.
10:54 am
MollyL
Unfortunately, the biggest lesson of that "collection" seemed to get lost. When someone posts "sad, poor me" stuff on a board it's usually in the hopes of getting attention and money. HINT: You do not KNOW these people. They are just words on a message board. DO NOT SEND THEM MONEY EVER>
10:54 am
Anniebrook
ah wildcat from Texas who supposedly "stole" the money

Yes, Nan first one ends in a number the second one ends in a smelling organ.
11:10 am
Anniebrook
Hi fan :)
11:10 am
MollyL
Zoom, if you are mentioning Jellen, that was her fiance not her husband. And the collection went totally through PayPal, which goes directly to the person. The Mr P scam involved personal checks that were cashed but supposedly the money was never sent to Mr P. I say supposedly because Mr P mysteriously vanished from Babble after all that, so I have my doubts about the whole thing.
11:10 am

Molly, I have a question then, who was collecting the money for Mr. P...Wildcat?
11:11 am
MLFAN17
thanks zooz
11:12 am
cybernan
and was Mr P really married to Lickety?
11:12 am
MollyL
That remains to be seen Annie. Most checks that were cashed and not sent were sent to Wildcat. I don't know who was supposed to send the money forward.
11:12 am

Criminy. This place is sounding like a soap opera.
11:12 am

whole thing seemed rather strange and soap operaish
11:13 am

Molly, I have my suspicions but I would rather not say. I could be wrong but this little man sitting on my shoulder says "nah"
11:14 am

The whole "poor me" thing is usually something to be concerned with. How many surgeries and personal tragedies can one person have?

72 Temple Owl
i am having difficulty with them, using a scoop to keep them even. it helps with apportionment but not with size, wven though I am rotating the sheets - which is unheard of for me, but whatever martha says...
7:43 pm
72 Temple Owl
i figured i needed to pack the scoop to be absolutely sure, but that does not always produce uniform product.

72 Temple Owl
they do, however, pass the taste test.

tell me, une? is there a restriction at all as to how many dogs oe is allowed to own over there? here we need special permission to own more than two as pets.
11:18 pm
Uneaixoise
yes, certain cities have restrictions -- not here in Nashville, but I know in Memphis the limit is 2
11:20 pm
grannyrose
i suppose it is for the dog's own good. but some people are just so natural as dog owners. it's such a pity that it is not recognised.
