sprite

good morning all

3:41 am

grannyrose

[[hugs}} and good morning my dear sprite. i'm still very tired. i DID NOT do the washing, haven't even changed the bed linen. just too tired.

3:42 am

sprite

well done my dear friend. Rest up first. That day was an ordeal, wayyyy too much for your poor body. *hugs*

3:42 am

grannyrose

how's my dear friend today?

3:44 am

sprite

I am good :) Sore body, don't know why, has been bugging me for a couple of days now. But it is weekend, only need to get some groceries, Rob is at canoeclub with dog, so not many chores to do.

3:48 am

grannyrose

nice, sprite. a quietish day before you then. so sorry that the ol' bod' is giving you gyp.

3:48 am

sprite

how is Don holding up?

3:49 am

grannyrose

quite well, thanx. he seems to be relaxed now that yesterday is done.

3:49 am

sprite

ah that is good. Give him my best, if you don't mind. Have been holding the both of you in my thoughts and prayers.

3:50 am

grannyrose

np's honey.

3:51 am

sprite

did you get any sleep last night?

3:52 am

grannyrose

yes i did. although i was wakeful from 2am to about 5am. then dozed off again. nerve was being particularly nasty.

3:53 am

sprite

I was afraid of that. Not a really restful night that way, but I am glad you managed to doze off again for a few hours.

3:54 am

grannyrose

of course the fairy elephant was up at 7:30am getting ready to go help with the church stall..... lolll

3:55 am

sprite

ughhhh men! Always reminds me of that cartoon strip of asterix and obelix... not sure if you know them overthere?

3:58 am

grannyrose

yes we do. in fact don has the full collection of the books.

4:00 am

sprite

ah great :D There is this scene where they go and spy and try to find a roman camp. Asterix says they must walk very silently, so they go tiptoeing through the wood. And then obelix calls out "Yoohooooo Romans, where ARE you???"
And Asterix gets mad, and then obelix says indignantly "But I WAS walking silently!"

4:02 am

grannyrose

roflolllll

4:06 am

tuco

asterisk and obelisk? Will look it up but at first glance those two words conjure up images that could be construed as sexual.

4:07 am

tuco

woah asterix and obelisk movies too?

4:08 am

sprite

lol tuco! They are made-up names to sound like the old names in the roman times, when the original people were resisting the roman invasion. It is not a sexual thing.

4:08 am

sprite

yes, they have been made into movies as well. Both cartoon and with real people.

4:08 am

tuco

I am not so sure. An asterisk according to Kurt Vonnegut looks like an a** hole. And we all know what an obelisk looks like.

4:09 am

sprite

a dirty mind is a joy forever

4:09 am

tuco

there are always double entendre

4:09 am

tuco

Are you familiar with the Beverly Hillbillies?

4:10 am

sprite

no, sorry

4:11 am

tuco

U.S. TV show from the 60s-70s. Apalachin dirt poor family strikes oil and moves to Beverly Hills. Hijinks ensue. Young beautiful niece named Elly May is always being introduced to young men.

4:12 am

sprite

sounds like it is good for a lot of laughs

4:12 am

tuco

Elly May loves taking care of wild animals. When she meets the young men who are drooling over her she says. Hi, I'm Elly May I have critters! The young men turn tail and run.

4:12 am

sprite

lollll I thought that name would come in handy

4:15 am

tuco

OMG Gerard Depardieu is in the Asterix and Obelisk movies? I hope they are on netflix

4:16 am

sprite

the movies aren't half bad. Much better than I expected them to be.

4:17 am

rubyfoo

Just a note, as I'm too sick to play.

4:17 am

rubyfoo

Just a note, as I'm too sick to play.

4:17 am

tuco

Oh man! Monica Bellucci is Cleopatra. Meow!!!!

4:17 am

sprite

hi sweetie, how awful. Any more news?

4:17 am

rubyfoo

I won't know any prognosis until Tuesday

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I'll be calling Soodle after the doctor visit and she'll let you all know

4:18 am

sprite

ok, we will keep you company while you wait. Such a rotten thing, that waiting stuff.

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I couoldn't breathe this Am and my son is driving me insane

4:19 am

sprite

what's he doing?

4:19 am

rubyfoo

he's making me throw away and go thrpugh papers, stuff I've saved for years. I feel like I'm throwing my life away, very depressing

4:20 am

sprite

yeah that is a tough job. But sometimes inevitable.

4:23 am

rubyfoo

bye for now

4:23 am

sprite

bye ruby, all the best. Will be thinking of you.

4:28 am

sprite

fireflies. *hugs* for rose, I hope you will sleep well tonight, darling. Keep up the good work (= resting) :D

8:46 am

Soodle

The dog has a very enigmatic expression - almost smiling.

8:48 am

MollyL

That Soodle picture looks like the one of you and your daughter on vacation. Did you crop yourself out of that one?

8:48 am

helensgirlkid

If you're still around - Congrats, crossy - lovely pictures.

Oops - nope. Ha 4/5 is a deer-like critter

9:00 am

After your kind words about my pic, Ru, I declare you more deer-like than donkey-like! :-P

9:01 am

9:08 am

crosshair

Lost a lot of good artists this year:(

9:09 am

Soodle

Its not a combo, Nan. De 7/36 is to expire . People talk about the dead as the de 7/36d . The de8/50 is to reduce, or take wrinkles out of something.

9:10 am

10:09 am

periwinkle

hi all

10:22 am

car.eeyore

No one asked you to the party?

10:26 am

MollyL

I think she meant no one asked her if it was too early for a party this time of day

10:26 am

car.eeyore

Oh! OK then

10:26 am

rururocks

her pedicure is barely done by this time

10:27 am

rururocks

how rude of them to start the party this early

10:27 am

MollyL

It is kind of early for a kids birthday party

10:27 am

car.eeyore

Get it over with...he will be tired and want to nap by noon.

10:27 am

bichon

Kids are always ready to party. Just like there is no water too cold

10:27 am

MollyL

A six year old? Nap?

10:28 am

car.eeyore

Some of them, yes

10:28 am

bichon

My grands stopped napping when they were three

10:30 am

rururocks

(car.ee spikes the Kool-Aid molly)

10:30 am

ChrissieDee

I don't think I've ever stopped napping ðŸ’¤

10:30 am

car.eeyore

We had 10 pre-teen boys here last night for an end of the year party...I'm exhausted.

10:31 am

bichon

That will do you in car

10:31 am

car.eeyore

And they did all the running around...not me.

10:31 am

ChrissieDee

Very brave of you car

10:31 am

bichon

I dread going to my grand's birthday parties. There's always such drama

10:32 am

bichon

At least for the girls. The boys are like car's

10:32 am

rururocks

drama?

10:32 am

car.eeyore

Do tell!

10:33 am

bichon

At one which was at Build a Bear, one drama queen refused to participate and rolled up into a ball because sh wasn't next to the birthday girl

10:34 am

bichon

Then they discuss who spent more on the presents

10:34 am

car.eeyore

LMAO! I'm so glad I had boys

10:34 am

bichon

Yes, if you can keep the energy level up

10:34 am

car.eeyore

true

10:34 am

bichon

My grandson wants his to be at Chuck E Cheese. Good god

10:35 am

car.eeyore

And they have their own kind of "drama".

10:35 am

bichon

Yes who can clobber whom

10:35 am

car.eeyore

Who gets which light saber...that kind of stuff

10:36 am

bichon

If I made it to great grandma, I will not go to birthday parties

10:41 am

MollyL

Going to Chuck E. Cheese is like paying to have a nervous breakdown

10:41 am

bichon

The first circle of hell

10:42 am

MollyL

There isn't enough beer in the world for all those screaming, running, animal like children.

10:43 am

car.eeyore

Trif feels that way about Dave & Busters, but I love Dave and Busters.

10:44 am

car.eeyore

I have never step foot in a Chuck E. Cheese

10:44 am

bichon

And the prices they charge. I remember by grandson won all these tickets and all he got for them was a baloon

10:44 am

ChrissieDee

Just googled Chuck E Cheese and looked at the images. Scary!!!!!

10:44 am

MollyL

Dave & Busters is worse. There, you have adults acting like children. And intoxicated too boot.

10:45 am

MollyL

*to boot (I've gotten scared just thinking about it)

Can anyone give me stats for the 8s? And tell me if I'm likely to be able to find them without clues?

11:16 am

mattygroves

Hi guys. I could have sworn I posted something in here, but it's gone :( May I have stats for the 8s, and could you also tell me if they are words that I could find myself without clues, or are they weird?

11:17 am

MollyL

11:19 am

mattygroves

Odd, I see only one...

MollyL

de8 to reduce the amount of

11:22 am

MollyL

cr8 sounds like the plural of where the baby Jesus lay

11:23 am

MollyL

Past tense, not plural

11:23 am

mattygroves

Thanks Molly - found the CR - now looking for the DE (give me a minute) :)

11:27 am

mattygroves

DE - so obvious when you know where to look. Thanks

11:32 am

Judi

Howdy, y'all!

11:41 am

mattygroves

Heya, Judi!

11:41 am

MollyL

Well, if we all knew where to look, we would all finish in 15 minutes like those Flip People

11:41 am

mattygroves

Yes, Molly - so yes!

11:42 am

mattygroves

I am now struggling with the DE7/36 before the de8.

11:43 am

MollyL

Singular of a death word

11:44 am

MollyL

Or take the R out of the 8

2:30 pm

MollyL

It is not overselling it to say we are having deluge style rain here. I haven't seen it rain this hard, all day, in a long time. If this is headed your way, outside plans and driving are not advised.

2:33 pm

penquis

we are expecting heavy rains and wind tomorrow.....perhaps starting tonight...

2:34 pm

saanichcat

please Molly send your rain this way thanks

2:39 pm

MollyL

I would love to send all of this out west. We don't need it and you folks most certainly do.

2:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I forgot how to spell curds and w*** so I don't know if is in the grin

2:44 pm

Judi

Hi, again! Well, we pulled the fridge out and cleaned underneath. What a horror show that was.

2:45 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I can imagin

2:46 pm

Judi

The dust was unbelievable.

2:46 pm

Kaplan the Magne

We probably have dead bugs and more under outs.

2:46 pm

Kaplan the Magne

ours.

2:47 pm

Judi

No bugs (amazingly). A few stray vitamin pills, some cat toys, pens.

2:47 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Cat toys definitely.

2:48 pm

Judi

I was a bit nervous about doing it, as our fridge is about 20 years old. Still works like a champ tho.

2:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

antique carrots

2:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

unidentified frying objects

2:49 pm

Judi

Ha ha! There were some egg shells. I guess my aim when tossing to the composte bucket is not the greatest.

2:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Pacifiers that went missing 25 years ago?

2:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I knew I'd find my keys someday!

2:50 pm

Judi

No kids, so no pacifiers.

2:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

(I'm just imagining what it would be like)

2:50 pm

Soodle

Good lord above. I think I will leave the joys of cleaning out under my fridge to those who come after me. Uggh

2:50 pm

Judi

That neighbor's kid who was on the milk box...

2:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Credit cards?

2:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

If you leave it for them, they will hate you.

2:51 pm

Judi

But it's such an adventure, Soodle! Once every 15 years, whether it needs it or not is my motto.

2:51 pm

Kaplan the Magne

This is why I am frantic for dealing with the clutter so my kids won't have the job.

2:52 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Matzah crumbs.

2:53 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I can only imagine the horror.

2:53 pm

Judi

We were really just trying to figure out where the teeny weeny ants are coming in. So secrets revealed there.

2:53 pm

Judi

No secrets, rather.

2:53 pm

Soodle

SPOILER ALERT GROSS STORY FOLLOWS:- My next door neighbour had a rat run in her back door and get trapped in the contraptions behind the fridge freezer. Understandably, she wouldn't go near it, and had to listen to the creature screeching as it died.

2:54 pm

Judi

Uhg! Well, at least it died quickly.

2:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

A bat once disappeared from under a box where I thought I'd trapped it. Never seen or heard or smelled again.

2:55 pm

Soodle

Ahem, I don't think it was all that quick, Judi....

2:55 pm

Judi

Oh. Yeech.

2:55 pm

MollyL

Gee, thanks for sharing that Soodle

2:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, I know.

2:56 pm

Soodle

And that is why I keep a domestic cat, and I feed several feral cats who appear from time to time.

2:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Any Orange is The New Black devotees out there? No spoilers, but I think Season 3 was profound in a lighter way

2:57 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have two cats who look like innocent babies until they catch something. Then they look like killer beasts.

2:57 pm

Soodle

Me Me Me, Kap. I am absolutely LOVING it. Far more so than season 2.

2:57 pm

MollyL

I don't have a problem with cats killing mice or rats. I do have a problem with them killing birds though.

2:57 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Fortunately they have taken out most of their instincts on a Beanie Baby squirrel.

2:57 pm

Judi

My boy cat did kill a rat once. Left if laying in the front yard (thankfully). Thing was freakin huge.

2:58 pm

Kaplan the Magne

In a different way. Season 2 finale was different and great- this time is transcendant.

2:58 pm

Judi

Gotta jet. See y'all tomorrow!

2:59 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Mine killed a baby squirrel (halfway) on the doorstep of my therapy office last year. Wasn't good.

3:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't like them killing birds either, but they have trouble understanding the mixed messages they get from me.

3:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Mouse----gooood kitty.

3:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Bird-baaaaaad kitty.

3:04 pm

Soodle

Oh dear. Until I google what transecendant means, all I can say is that I am really enjoying Season 3.

3:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

what episode are you on.

3:05 pm

Soodle

The one with the Amish theme....

3:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

You're getting there.

3:06 pm

Soodle

i AM

3:07 pm

Soodle

Sorry.... I am developing a fondness for characters in this series who I never even noticed before.

3:07 pm

bojazz

nice pic, Soodle... :)

3:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I know. Did you see the Chinese woman's backstory?

3:09 pm

Soodle

Thanks Bo!! I feel obliged to tell all and sundry that that pic is an exceptionally nice picture of me. Very unusual!

3:10 pm

Soodle

I did see her story, Kap. Very bittersweet. I am very fond of her as a character....

3:11 pm

bojazz

If I was coming to Ireland I would want to meet you ... maybe a pint at a local pub?

3:13 pm

MollyL

I knew she was trying to score with that picture

3:17 pm

Soodle

Bojazz.... The first thing you have to learn before you come to Ireland is that a bird never flew on one wing. Therefore the notion of A pint is nonsense. It is pints. Plural. And yes. Pints in my local would be great!!!!

3:18 pm

Soodle

And fortunately, I have several locals!!!

3:19 pm

bojazz

Lesson learned. Pints! I shall start saving my coins...

3:21 pm

Soodle

Cha-ching!! I hear the pennies dropping into Bojazz'es piggy bank! LOL

3:22 pm

bojazz

pennies would be the correct denomination...

3:22 pm

Soodle

Not exactly - It's cents now, but that's academic.....

3:23 pm

bojazz

judging by your comments over time and some notes in your profile, you sound like a very interesting person - with a great sense of humor...

3:24 pm

Soodle

OMG!!!!! Have I clicked????

3:25 pm

bojazz

sure, why not?

3:26 pm

Soodle

LOL...my last comment was in 'sarcastic' font!

3:26 pm

bojazz

ooops - no sarcastic font here

3:28 pm

Soodle

Bojazz, I would welcome every Babbler to Ireland. I have met only one - Riverdance - when she was on a tour of the country. We met for dinner and had an absolute blast. I look forward to meeting any other Babblers

3:30 pm

bojazz

coming to Ireland is a fantasy of mine - England and Scotland, too - but a winning lottery number is required... :(

3:30 pm

Soodle

So, if you are planning a trip here... I promise you I will meet up with you and we will have a great night.

3:31 pm

bojazz

I will not forget the offer!! :)

3:32 pm

Soodle

Oh, Bojazz.... we are all waiting for that winning lottery ticket......

3:32 pm

bojazz

yes, for many years now

3:59 pm

Soodle

Good night all.

MollyL

Wow, that is a big mother/son love jones

5:36 pm

Trifioso

he is endlessly amused with enable, especially the part where it takes "shat" but not "shart"

5:37 pm

lynxxx

I'll bite - what is shart?

5:37 pm

Trifioso

it's absolutely NOT something you want in the same sentence as "bite"

5:40 pm

MollyL

Urban dictionary words...aka made up words...would never be in the ancient Enable word list...Shart...combination of shit and fart

5:47 pm

torgone

Shart is also known as "gambled and lost"

5:48 pm

MollyL

Perfect definition Tor

9:47 pm

When you weigh something it is light or?

9:47 pm

thanks rhozee!

rururocks

*am I interrupting something? *

9:55 pm

rhozee

Nope, just a lurker being dumb.

9:57 pm

Bugsaw

Absolutely not ruru. Nice to see you here. Just left for some food

9:58 pm

rururocks

I saw the dearest and didn't know if I was interrupting :D

9:58 pm

Bugsaw

The dinner was a great success and my brother had heard of Burrowing Owl. He knew he liked it.

9:58 pm

Bugsaw

I just assumed it was for me!

9:58 pm

rururocks

ah...!! how was it

9:58 pm

rururocks

did you like it?

9:59 pm

rururocks

that's what matters most

10:00 pm

Bugsaw

We all enjoyed it. It was the best of the choices open that night. We told lots of stories and laughed which is always good when you get family together

10:00 pm

rururocks

ah.. great.. I'm sorry it was so pricey.. I thought it would be about $30 - $35

10:01 pm

Bugsaw

No worries. I got 2 bottles so I can save one for another time. Knowing it was hard to find made the decision.

10:02 pm

rururocks

well.. you enjoyed it and your family had a good time.. so it was money well-spent

10:02 pm

Bugsaw

I used to be stoney broke and had to count every penny. Since my parents left me extra, I am now much more willing to indulge myself. I wanted to use it to renovate the house but I am having fun spending it.

10:03 pm

rururocks

I'm in the middle of writing a thank you note to jilli

10:03 pm

Bugsaw

You hit the nail on the head there

10:03 pm

rururocks

did you get my email story I sent you?

10:03 pm

Bugsaw

She will appreciate that. She is stilll impressed by good breeding.

10:05 pm

rururocks

she was so generous with her home.. and allowing me to destroy her kitchen :D

10:05 pm

Bugsaw

I did and I laughed my head off. You very nearly got the same response from me when I looked up the one I liked the most. Sure enough, it was the most expensive of the 2 I could price on line. I decided to accept it with grace and a lot of gratitude that I was included in the gathering.

10:06 pm

rururocks

that bottle couldn't have gone to better use than that dinner :D

10:06 pm

Bugsaw

It is rude to check out the price of a gift but I was looking online for the ones you recommended and while I was on the site, I snooped.

10:06 pm

Bugsaw

I will remain forever honoured.

10:07 pm

rururocks

ah.. I think it's worth about 900 American right now..it's a little hard to find now

10:08 pm

rururocks

we'll do it again. I love your part of the world.. i'm going to have even more freedom soon than I've had for a long time

10:08 pm

Bugsaw

RIght. I had no idea that bottles of wine could fetch such tremendous prices except through watching mystery movies.

10:09 pm

rururocks

yes.. they sure can.. I sell a lot of expensive wines.. some that are many thousands per bottle

10:09 pm

Bugsaw

Well do come back and I will find the best place to go for an excellent meal. There is one chef in town who is absolutely wonderful but he sometimes moves from place to place. When you are here we will go to him.

10:10 pm

rururocks

you have a deal

10:10 pm

Bugsaw

Good

10:11 pm

rururocks

I even half considered buying a place in Ganges..the prices are very reasonable

10:13 pm

Bugsaw

Wouldn't that be fun if you became a part-time resident up here. We consider prices on Saltspring outrageous but not compared to California.

10:15 pm

Bugsaw

I am done and will poof now.

10:15 pm

Bugsaw

Waves to the lurkers!

10:16 pm

rururocks

bye bugs.. we'll talk again

10:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

is anyone here?

10:50 pm

stidmama

drat. missed all the fun, it looks like. LOL Too hot here. cannot seem to find new words. Down to 64 and reluctant to list today.

10:57 pm

stidmama

ruru, if you are in lurker mode, I know the chef bugs is referring to, I think -- you would LOVE his work!

11:01 pm

stidmama

Well, down to 54 and not fully engaged. back tomorrow. *poof*
