Someone help with hy8 please

1:04 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} lizgirl. how's the weather up there?

1:05 am

Lizlin

Bl***y cold - though a bit warmer than it was.

1:05 am

Lizlin

Actually not bad in the sun - but there's not been too much of that today.

1:05 am

Lizlin

How about down there?

1:05 am

grannyrose

means shallow breathing. hy4 + two consonants + two vowels

1:06 am

grannyrose

b****y cold too. with no let up.

1:07 am

Lizlin

It was down to 5 C for 3 nights - which is really cold for here.

1:07 am

flosey

hi Rose

1:07 am

grannyrose

the sun comes out but there is no heat to it.

1:07 am

grannyrose

hi ya flosey

1:08 am

Lizlin

Oh well - that's a difference - in the sun it was in the low 20s but our house is cold - the trees block the sun.

1:08 am

Lizlin

Also loads of clouds today.

1:08 am

grannyrose

how you doing with that clue, ruru? i have thought of another way to clue it.

1:09 am

Lizlin

Not getting that hy 8 even from your clue.

1:09 am

Lizlin

Is the hy 4 the one that's short for an injection or with a different vowel?

1:09 am

grannyrose

okay. hy + sound bubblegum makes when it bursts + most of close by

1:10 am

Lizlin

That's great - thanks - I was using the wrong 2nd consonant.

1:11 am

grannyrose

it's what i do when i sleep.

1:11 am

Lizlin

How have you been Rose - haven't seen too much of you recently?

1:11 am

flosey

un7 is a strange, rather dreary word

1:12 am

grannyrose

still resting quietly. get next lot of blood test results next wednesday. * fingers crossed*

1:12 am

Lizlin

It describes the way I felt when I entered that word :)

1:12 am

Lizlin

Hope that they come out well for you.

1:12 am

Lizlin

Are you feeling better though?

1:12 am

flosey

lol, but we enter them anyway and ****

1:13 am

grannyrose

thanx liz. and my next infusion therapy is tomorrow week.

1:13 am

Lizlin

True. And if anyone uses the pb any more, that's where I should be!

1:13 am

Lizlin

That should make you feel much better.

1:13 am

grannyrose

yes, liz. feeling better from the hepatitis. but the FM has gone berserk.

1:13 am

flosey

seldom hear of the pb anymore

1:13 am

Lizlin

So which drug (well, what was it for) was your reaction against.

1:13 am

flosey

FM?

1:14 am

Lizlin

In that case you must be hanging out for the infusion.

1:14 am

grannyrose

fibromyalgia, flosey

1:14 am

flosey

ah, tks

1:15 am

Lizlin

A hint for either de 7 pls - not seeing them.

1:15 am

flosey

gosh Rose, seems you have almost everything in the book! How do you manage! Amazing

1:15 am

grannyrose

my shoulders, shins and calves are so sore and sensitive. i cringe every night when don has to take off my compression sock.

1:15 am

Lizlin

Ouch - poor Rose

1:15 am

flosey

ah Rose, so sorry

1:16 am

grannyrose

*giggles* flosey. up until recently i just ignored it and got on with life. but my past is catching up with me.

1:16 am

flosey

I can't imagine!!

1:17 am

grannyrose

flosey, when i see the condition of some people, living in wheelchairs, entirely dependent on others for everything, i give thanx to God and realise i am not that badly off.

1:18 am

Lizlin

Huh! Enable doesn't know about epipens!

1:18 am

dcseain

Enable does not know many words.

1:18 am

grannyrose

lollll... yeah i know. i tried it first up. most disappointing.

1:18 am

dcseain

OTOH, it knows lots of other ones. i mean sysop, for real?

1:19 am

Lizlin

And the number of foreign languages it knows ...

1:19 am

Marmar

Hi grannyrose, when the word "fibro.." went by my antenne went up. I was diagnosed with that a few years back and it was horrid. Looking up the stairs at our house, knowing I had to walk up used to bring me to tears!

1:19 am

Lizlin

Until ARB mentioned it, I'd never have tried that ul 5/14

1:19 am

dcseain

some of those foreign words like arroyo, are valid at least in American English.

1:19 am

grannyrose

of course, seain. that's the sound you make sipping soup, isn't it?

1:19 am

flosey

ah yes, Rose, absolutely

1:20 am

dcseain

it's a dry stream that only has water when it rains, from Spanish for the same.

1:20 am

Lizlin

Never heard of arroyo - what does it mean?

1:20 am

flosey

that was a late response to 1:19 comment!!

1:20 am

Lizlin

Thanks - beat me to it.

1:20 am

dcseain

maramar, i'm sorry to hear that you have fibromyalgia, that's rough.

1:20 am

dcseain

LOL lizlin :)

1:20 am

Marmar

But I got a lot of permenent relief by adjusting my diet and increasing my daily movement. I know every body is different but I am completely better. No therapy and no drugs!!

1:20 am

grannyrose

poor marmar. it is such an insidious disorder. because there is no outward sign, people don't think you are hurting that much.

1:21 am

Lizlin

:)

1:21 am

Marmar

Hi DC!!!

1:21 am

dcseain

i'm very, very glad to hear that, marmar :) and hello, to you, long time.

1:21 am

flosey

up6 is a bit of a stretch, isn't it?

1:21 am

dcseain

also lizlin, hello, been a while.

1:21 am

Lizlin

Hi to you too and Marmar

1:22 am

Marmar

Hi everyone!

1:22 am

dcseain

that is a bit odd, indeed, flosey

1:23 am

grannyrose

where you been hiding, seain?

1:23 am

Lizlin

Just found that up 6 - definitely odd.

1:23 am

dcseain

i've been listening to Dvorak's Symphony 9 (New World)

1:23 am

Lizlin

Got to go - 12 left to finish later. Bye all and hugs, Rose

1:23 am

grannyrose

marmar, you are fortunate that that regime helped you.

1:24 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} liz. enjoy your evening. xox to peter.

1:24 am

dcseain

also Mendelssohn's The Hebrides.

1:24 am

Marmar

I know, I have friends that are a lifetime of meds, I hate that!

1:24 am

grannyrose

nice, seain.

1:24 am

dcseain

be well, liz.

1:26 am

dcseain

ah, greek temples today, i see.

1:31 am

flosey

gave up and used MW for se7, another strange one

1:45 am

flosey

TY Diane the ul6 isn't a word

2:05 am

Dianne

My list took it.

2:05 am

Dianne

Sorry - my list took the ul5

2:35 am

jwr

While you're on questionable words, I have a quibble with Enable, which said: "melena" was not found in the dictionary, Enable is the only dictionary the word is NOT found in; it is not new, not uncommon, and is in fact the word we use to define the discharge of black, tarry, bloody stools, usually resulting from a hemorrhage in the alimentary tract. Unpleasant, perhaps, but legit. I can't find who or what is responsible for Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon. Anyone know?

2:39 am

grannyrose

that is strange jwr. i have just tried several different spellings of the word, and enable does not recognise the word in any shape or form

2:40 am

jwr

exactly

2:41 am

dcseain

yet, it takes estop and estoppel, relatively uncommon legal terms.

2:42 am

jwr

I am more curious, though, as to the origins of Enable and who is behind it. It seems like it was put Out There and left because it doesn't appear to have been updated at any point. Curiosity Gone Wild, that's me.

2:44 am

dcseain

also, Babble does not use the latest ENABLE.

2:44 am

grannyrose

okay, jwr. you need to contact the national puzzler's league

2:46 am

jwr

dc, IS there a "latest" Enable?

2:47 am

jwr

rose, is there a national puzzler's league. I have two legs -- could each of you be pulling one?

2:48 am

grannyrose

just google it, jwr

2:48 am

grannyrose

*giggles* how about the leg in the middle?

2:49 am

jwr

(I was going to say that I didn't believe in Google -- but I almost got run over by one of their ginormous buses today.

2:49 am

jwr

you giggles, I googles

2:50 am

grannyrose

now who's pulling whose leg?? google have a bus??

2:52 am

jwr

Google, m'dear, was until very recently, a major menace in our fair city. It got pretty hot, too: http://www.cnbc.com/id/101258693

2:55 am

jwr

They have a fleet of huge luxury buses that pick up and deposit their employees in every corner of the city, wherever and whenever they find it convenient. Citizens rebelled - especially ones who where elderly, frail, disabled or just plain impatient becuase the regular city buses couldn't get to the curb to pick up passengers.

2:56 am

jwr

*were*

2:58 am

jwr

Found the NPL, thanks Rose. I'll send them my Enable enigmas tomorrow. A bit more babbling and I am off to work.

2:58 am

grannyrose

wow!! i didn't know that there were such issues around google. no wonder you are so anti them. it seems to me the company has a lot of cheek disrupting a public service like that.

3:03 am

jwr

Now for the OTHER side of the story. Things have quieted down considerably. all of a sudden we have free transit for all seniors (over 65) and disabled ... with income below $100,000 a year! Think about it. It may not last but a few years but the word is that Google is subsidizing it.

3:05 am

jwr

Ooops! I'm about to run late to catch the bus to work (not there, no!) Running faster puff puff gotta goooooooooo poof

3:05 am

grannyrose

lollll jwr. you gooooo

3:35 am

3:43 am

dinner ready. bbl. xoxox

4:56 am

sprite

good morning all

4:57 am

Lizlin

Quick hi and hugs from me but we're about to Skype, so I'm not staying

4:57 am

crosshair

Good morning, my friends. read that bit on the Google employee buses using public transit stops in San Fran. My view is the solution would be for them to just pay the city to set up Google Inc. bust stops just up a bit from the public ones. The other side of the coin is that S.F is fortunate to have companies that size and the jobs it creates> Remember, all those tech companies using those stops could move elsewhere and i think that many cities that have been losing big business for decades would welcome the inconvenience of them using the public stops now and then.

4:57 am

sprite

hi Liz! *hugs* and have a nice chat.

4:57 am

Hi Crossy

4:58 am

sprite

hi crossy :) *hugs*

4:59 am

crosshair

Our little community has been losing the big businesses for 20 years now. One big glass company moved everything down to mexico after the unions just got too greedy. Now we live and die on the tourist dollar:(

5:01 am

sprite

aw crossy, that is tough

5:02 am

crosshair

I bet if you dig a bit, SF, is paying google the cost of the free bus rides that the people there now enjoy. I do not think they would care to lose google over trifles.

5:03 am

sprite

sounds like you are right

5:03 am

crosshair

Here, everyone over 65 gets the bus free as a matter of course.

5:05 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} friends. good morning sprite. g'day crossy. wb lizgirl

5:05 am

sprite

that is interesting. Here, I think you get a discount over a certain age

5:05 am

sprite

hi rose *hugs* my dear friend. How was your dinner?

5:05 am

sprite

over 65, it is

5:05 am

grannyrose

very nice. a beef casserole.

5:06 am

sprite

sounds lovely

5:06 am

crosshair

mmmm...beef

5:06 am

grannyrose

how are you this morning dear?

5:08 am

sprite

foggy, lol. Caya went to a party in amsterdam last night, with a couple of her friends. I picked them up at 1.30 am and then drove them all to their respective homes, all over the region here. Was back home at 2.45, so I slept in.

5:09 am

grannyrose

nice you could do that. do you feel like you have had enough sleep?

5:09 am

grannyrose

dumb question 995. foggy, rose, foggy. duh!!

5:09 am

sprite

I should have, but I don't, lol. Could go back to bed and sleep some more. But not gonna. Early to bed tonight is better.

5:10 am

sprite

*giggles*

5:12 am

sprite

I'd do a whole lot more just to know those girls are safe. No problem for me to drive around, as long as I know they don't have to go through a bad part of amsterdam, to a huge trainstation, then to several buses or even the bicycle. Nah. Much better to drive them home.

5:15 am

grannyrose

i know exactly how you feel. one would hope the girls' parents would do the same for Caya.

5:16 am

sprite

don't think so. They don't even do it for their own daughters. Plenty of money, not so much care. Caya said on the last stretch home, when we were together, that one of the girls has over 25k in savings, done by her parents. But no drive home. And she also said she was happy she didn't feel too good to work for her money in a supermarket. That girl does feel too good for that and at some point in life that is gonna give problems.

5:18 am

grannyrose

good grief!! that poor kid is in for a shock.

5:18 am

sprite

is that even good english? To feel too good for something? Or should I say feels it is beneath her?

5:19 am

mattygroves

Hi guys. May I please have stats for the Y and for the E at the top and the bottom of the second column?

5:19 am

sprite

yeah she sure is. I am glad Caya feels this way, though. Since we don't have much savings at all, leave alone for the children, it would be easy to feel like we lack as parents.

5:19 am

sprite

hiya matty! How are you today?

I'm OK - going to ride into Twickenham on the pushbike and get it serviced (I bought it six weeks ago and they do a free first service)

5:20 am

grannyrose

and g'day matty

5:20 am

mattygroves

How could I have missed that Y?!

5:21 am

sprite

ah nice, matty. Always nice, a free servic e.

5:21 am

sprite

5:21 am

mattygroves

Yarp! That must be it ;)

5:22 am

I think, once the kids will have left the house, my love and I will only celebrate Midwinter.

5:22 am

mattygroves

May I also have a clue for the EN6, please?

5:23 am

grannyrose

en6. en + not cheap

5:23 am

mattygroves

Of course - thanks!

5:23 am

sprite

en6: make yourself liked

5:24 am

sprite

too little too late, lol. Slowwwwpoke!

5:24 am

grannyrose

lollllll. what do expect from someone who is foggy? poor sprite!

5:25 am

sprite

too true, dat. Am stalling at only 90 in, grin.

5:34 am

sprite

now that wasn't supposed to be a stopper. Where did you all go?

5:35 am

mattygroves

I've got 110 words (haven't listed yet) - would be NBT but am missing the Es in the bottom row, second column, and I don't have the 8

5:35 am

5:38 am

sprite

new one for me, that hy

5:39 am

grannyrose

sprite, that is what i do when i sleep.

5:39 am

sprite

aw yes, rose, I know exactly what you mean. Too many disturbed nights leave you feeling like that... as if the world is at a distance and you can't really bother.

5:40 am

sprite

scary, rose. I know the ap variant, but not the hy.

5:42 am

grannyrose

i actually do both. but the ap is not as severe as the hy. that is why i need the CPAP machine.

5:42 am

sprite

and thanks for the ep's too

5:42 am

sprite

can you travel with it, rose? Or do we have to try and hire one here?

5:43 am

grannyrose

i can travel with it. i also have a plug adaptor. american, european and australian.

5:44 am

sprite

awesome. Has machine, can travel.

5:45 am

grannyrose

it is considered medical equipment so i can take it on the plane and it isn't counted as luggage.

5:45 am

sprite

ah good. Another thing that won't be a problem then. Now we need you to get your health back.

5:48 am

grannyrose

sprite, have you ever seen esio trot? the film of dahl's book with dustin hoffman and judy dench.

5:49 am

sprite

no, never. Don't even think I have heard of it. Esio Trot?

5:49 am

crosshair

reading back. A year or 3 ago, i was diagnosed with sleep apnea, and have the machine tucked away in the bedroom. However, I lost 50 pounds and mostly gave up all alcohol, and knock on wood, the apnea gone away for now. I hate that bloody cpap machine!

5:50 am

sprite

sounds good, rose, just looked it up.

5:50 am

sprite

very good, crossy. I have minor apnea and I know that once I have lots a lot of weight, it will be gone. And it is gonna happen.

5:51 am

grannyrose

oh, crossy. well done you. but even i was at my ideal weight i still did it. turns out i have central OSA. in other words the ap and hy stem from my brain. i have been known to stop breathing even when i am awake.

5:52 am

sprite

very unpleasant :(

5:52 am

mr hate is exacting his pound of flesh for the relatives coming to stay with me. I am SO DONE with his shenanigans

11:41 am

rururocks

pound of flesh?

11:41 am

Trifioso

the price I must pay for anything good that happens

11:42 am

rururocks

oh

11:42 am

rururocks

he could have about 10 lbs of my flesh

11:43 am

Trifioso

stupid people are EXHAUSTING. every knows what he is doing, and yet he keeps on, like we are too stupid to figure out we are all just tolerating him.

11:44 am

Trifioso

in this particular case I come out smelling like a rose and looking like a total class act, so that's a plus.

11:44 am

MollyL

His relatives or yours?

11:45 am

Trifioso

his relatives (HIS TWIN, in fact) are in town, and asked to stay here with me. THEIR choice. His cousin is here on business, and asked to have lunch with me today. Mr. Hate got wind of this and totally made it impossible for the cousin to meet me today.

11:46 am

MollyL

Wow, his twin would rather be with you than him. That says a lot.

11:46 am

Trifioso

His cousin just lost his dad about three weeks ago. The poor man is REELING. The absolute last thing he needed was to be put in the middle by some ridiculous queen having a tantrum. That poor guy - I feel awful.

11:48 am

Trifioso

mr hate cannot stand it that his family wants to keep in relationship with me. He went to so far as to call them up and demand that their children never address me as "auntie" again. No one took that particularly well.

11:50 am

rururocks

maybe he should just piss all over his relatives and mark his territory?

11:50 am

Trifioso

anyway.....moving on

11:50 am

Trifioso

yeah.. let him be miserable.. you change your space

11:52 am

Trifioso

11:56 am

I guess his family has not accepted his new lifestyle.

11:58 am

thanks car. Im actually mighty pissed over this one

12:00 pm

car.eeyore

You can be, but you have to let it go. His cousin should have stood up to him.

12:01 pm

Trifioso

Im not mad at simon. He was in an impossible situation - no car, stuck at angelas, not wanting to be involved....its 100% not his fault

12:02 pm

car.eeyore

I'm sorry...but, again...

actually we have representatives and senators - both are congresspersons.

3:46 pm

:-D

3:48 pm

Uneaixoise

FW!! back at the flip :-)

4:11 pm

MollyL

Each state elects two senators. Each congressional district elects a representative. In common usage, congressman usually refers to a representative. If you want to get nitpicky, yes, both are congress persons. But they are rarely referred to that way.

4:59 pm

Bugsaw

I believe the Wickanninish Inn in Tofino is owned by Lorne Priestly and his father now. It is reported to be very nice because they had the money to make something beautiful even better.

5:01 pm

rururocks

well.. that I will check out.. Tofino is beautiful too

5:01 pm

rururocks

Long Beach blew me away last time I was there.. many years ago.

5:04 pm

Bugsaw

One of my favourite places is Long Beach. Can hardly afford to go now but in my youth it had not been discovered yet so it was often covered in drunken university students watching the beach eat their cars because you used to be able to drive on the sand. When the tide comes is, it undermines the hard pan and cars begins to sink long before the drunks notice.

5:05 pm

Bugsaw

A friend of mine had it happen and we couldn't even get his little 2 seater sports car out. The insurance lady had no trouble with the reason it was missing.

5:07 pm

rururocks

it was not built up when I went there in the 90's

5:07 pm

rururocks

oops.. maybe even the 1980's

5:08 pm

Bugsaw

It is still a park but muck busier now. Never can lose that beauty though.

hey stiddy. report cards finished?

11:07 pm

grannyrose

swet dreams min

11:11 pm

stidmama

for now, gr. Printed a copy of the comments I was working on and will read them tomorrow evening. The narrative part is the hard bit for me. I want to be honest, but fair -- next year's teacher should know what the kiddo is able to do, but the child needs to know how they grew... and some children grow a tremendous amount but are still well below grade level while others don't actually grow much but are well above grade level. Tricky balancing act.

11:13 pm

grannyrose

when i had to write reports for the student nurses i found it very difficult to vary my comments. a failing of mine i guess.

11:15 pm

stidmama

it is difficult

11:15 pm
