4:12 am

mattygroves

Morning (evening) all - can I have a nudge please on the ot6?

4:36 am

MollyL

ot6 has a double consonant in the middle and ends like a 4 letter j word for coffee

4:37 am

MollyL

It is a musical term I have never heard of. But then, I don't write music, just enjoy it.

4:55 am

mattygroves

Thank you!

5:09 am

rubyfoo

Ooof! Another small one and today I have time.

5:18 am

MollyL

And yet, because of the many oddball words, it is challenging.

5:18 am

rubyfoo

Hello, I've yet to find one easy!

5:19 am

rubyfoo

You'd think after this many years, it would get easier....

5:20 am

rubyfoo

lava

5:20 am

rubyfoo

sorry, I'll be quiet!

5:26 am

MollyL

Bring it on Ruby. There is always someone here looking for an easy clue.

5:41 am

rubyfoo

I am so Lucky! I> almost ran out of wood and since the fireplace is my sole source of heat (beyond radiators in the bathrooms), I was panicking. But since this AM, acquaintances have found me two wood guys.

5:42 am

rubyfoo

Phew!!

5:43 am

MollyL

Wood guys are great. They bring it, they stack it. Gotta love wood guys.

5:44 am

rubyfoo

For sure! I was picturing my cold, dead body, found by Neighbors....

5:45 am

MollyL

Oh Ruby, have better thoughts than that. Thoughts become things.

5:45 am

rubyfoo

aloe

5:47 am

rubyfoo

I know, but it's been tough week

5:48 am

MollyL

All the more reason to set your thoughts in the positive direction

5:48 am

rubyfoo

I definitely need a pep talk!

5:50 am

rubyfoo

One very nice thing, my son made a collage of photos of 4 of my dogs and a big family album going back more than 100 years including a couple of photos taken in 19th C. Ukraine

5:51 am

rubyfoo

I think he expresses his feelings obliquely

5:58 am

Anniebrook

I also have pictures taken in 19th C. Ukraine of my mother's family and my father's family

6:05 am

Anniebrook

first pass thru--12 left

6:13 am

rubyfoo

Hello Annie. Where in the Ukraine? My mother's family came from Ekaterinaslov (now Dnepropetrovsk) andfather's from a shtetl outside of Kiev, Kanotop

6:16 am

Anniebrook

My mother is from Kiev and my father from Old Constantine (Ithink that was Americanized)

6:17 am

Anniebrook

Old Constantine was a shtetl but my mother's family lived in the city

6:18 am

Anniebrook

I have a picture of the village where my father lived gathered in front of a barn. They are sitting around a table with bottles of wine and cakes.

6:25 am

rubyfoo

I just have a few formal photos. My mother's parents were city people, her father a tailor and dancing instructor. She was born in Ukraine, but arrived on the White Star Line at a year old, in 1910

6:27 am

rubyfoo

Father's parents lived in the shtetl but came to the US earlier and settled in Scranton and, later, in Schenectady, where my father was born.

6:27 am

rubyfoo

My father's mother was a great beauty and acted in the Yiddish theater in Scranton.

6:28 am

Anniebrook

My parents were late arrivers. Father came to Boston in 1920 and mother to NYC in 1921.

6:28 am

rubyfoo

Mother's family settled in McKeesport, outside of Pittsburgh.

6:28 am

Anniebrook

So that is where you get your good looks, ruby

6:29 am

Anniebrook

My fahter lived in Providence before he came to NYC and my mother lived in Harlem.

6:29 am

rubyfoo

Hahah, but thanks. She was a wavy-haired, blue-eyed blonde, hencee my father's handsomeness and my son's blue eyes

6:30 am

rubyfoo

I am happy that my son feels connected to the family even though he and I have our ups and downs.

6:31 am

Anniebrook

MY grandmother used to take me to the Yiddish theatre on Second Avenue and hold me on her lap. That was how young I was.

6:31 am

rubyfoo

He may be headed for Australia and New Zealand, if they can get decent standby seats from LA to Melbourne

6:32 am

Anniebrook

Wonderful trip. But he made the album for you so now it is "ups".

6:32 am

rubyfoo

I can picture that, Annie! My mother's mother once took me to Radio City when I was 4 but she died when I was 5 and my grandfather, before I was born.

6:33 am

rubyfoo

With my father's family, out of a huge number of cousins, I was the only one close to "Grandma Nina"

6:34 am

Anniebrook

My mother loved Radio City. She would keep me out of school and take me to Radio City and the Roxy. I didnt mind at all.

6:35 am

Anniebrook

My father was one of eleven children so there were cousins all over.

6:35 am

Uneaixoise

what wonderful family stories -- and amazing photos!

6:35 am

rubyfoo

My mothertr did similar things; since I was nver sick, when we'd go to the dentist in Manhattan, we would make a day or it and have lunch at Rubyfoo's

6:35 am

Anniebrook

Hi Une, Your pictures are priceless.

6:35 am

rubyfoo

I was very fortunate!

6:36 am

Uneaixoise

but they're not 19th century Ukraine! LOL

6:36 am

rubyfoo

Sharing photos and stories make the Internet a blessing for us all!

6:36 am

Uneaixoise

i totally agree :-)

6:37 am

rubyfoo

Although I have a lot of friends and acquaintancs here, nobody speaks English, so this place is really important for me.

6:37 am

rubyfoo

And I love Une's dog photos!

6:38 am

rubyfoo

this place being Babble

6:38 am

Uneaixoise

:-)

6:38 am

Anniebrook

I loved Ruby Foos. I was born the worst year of the Depression but we survived. My father had a hosiery store and people needed hosiery. On the first day of school he gave each child a pair of socks that they could choose themselves.

6:39 am

Anniebrook

Or is it Ruibyfoos?

6:39 am

rubyfoo

My father had a candy store and when I was in kindergarten or 1stt grade, the whole class would walk almost a mile to his store and he'd give all the children ice cream

6:40 am

Anniebrook

Oh how nice! I want chocolate.

6:40 am

rubyfoo

I don't have any idea, but I think there's one in Montreal

6:40 am

Uneaixoise

Annie, I remember my mom telling me about sugar rationing . . . a big "dessert" treat for he and her brothers was a couple of spoonfuls of sweetened condensed milk :-)

6:40 am

Uneaixoise

*for her

6:41 am

rubyfoo

Were they in Tennessee?

6:41 am

Uneaixoise

oh, ruby, your father and his store sound wonderful!

6:41 am

Anniebrook

I do not remember the Depression too much because I was sheltered from the hardships people endured.

6:41 am

Uneaixoise

no, Ruby, they were in Louisiana

6:42 am

rubyfoo

It was wonderful and I started working there when I was 7.

6:42 am

rubyfoo

It was wonderful and I started working there when I was 7.

6:42 am

Uneaixoise

how fantastic! :-)

6:42 am

rubyfoo

I could "mind the store" alone, by the time I was 9!

6:42 am

Uneaixoise

wow!

6:42 am

rubyfoo

It readied me for a life in commerce LOL!

6:43 am

Anniebrook

I could mind my father's little store starting at 12.

6:43 am

rubyfoo

I was just too short to scoop ice cream, but I could make a fine "egg cream"

6:43 am

rubyfoo

Those were safe days

6:44 am

Uneaixoise

my best family store story: my great aunt had a children's bookstore in Monroe LA (called "The Children's Bookstore" LOL)-- when we visited in the summer, I got to sit in the store and read any/all the books I wanted -- heaven!! :-)

6:44 am

Anniebrook

Yes, ruby, they were. I would walk to my father's store which was about 3 miles away. I started helping him when I was 10 and my mother let me go.

6:45 am

Marc Freeman

al6 and vo6, please?

6:45 am

Anniebrook

Une, That is fabulous.

6:45 am

Uneaixoise

vo6 french word for flying

6:46 am

Anniebrook

al6 is a recess in a room

6:46 am

rubyfoo

That sounds perfect, Une. I used to read comie books and then put them back on the rack

6:46 am

Marc Freeman

Just past Monroe on my way to Des Moines the other day.

6:46 am

rubyfoo

comic*

6:46 am

Uneaixoise

Marc, I'm related to lots of folks in that area :-)

6:47 am

Anniebrook

Wasn't Truman Capote born in Monroe?

6:47 am

Uneaixoise

ruby, my friends and did the same thing -- on Saturday we rode our bikes to Boyd Drugs on the square --- we bought Cokes and Fritos and read ALL the Archie and Veronica! LOL

6:48 am

Marc Freeman

Monroe is about 1 hour 20 minutes from where I live in Fairfield, Iowa.

6:48 am

rubyfoo

I think if we all made charts of where we lived, who we knew, where we worked and added in all our relatives, we would all find connections to each other

6:49 am

Uneaixoise

Capote was born in New Orleans

6:49 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks Une for the vo6 clue

6:49 am

Anniebrook

ah, thanks

6:50 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks Annie for the al6 clue

Anniebrook

6:51 am

Uneaixoise

6:51 am

rubyfoo

aaah, thank you

6:51 am

Uneaixoise

Ruby, you're probably right -- 6 degrees of separation :-)

6:52 am

rubyfoo

I really think so

6:52 am

Uneaixoise

tx for the al6, Annie :-)

6:53 am

rubyfoo

And Annie appeared just after my best friend in NY died, so she helped fill that hole in my heart. The last place we went together was Brighton Beach

6:54 am

Anniebrook

Brighton Beach is the biggest Russian community in the US. I live in Brighton Beach.

6:55 am

rubyfoo

The last time I was there was in 1999

6:57 am

Marc Freeman
