Pleasure. Oiginal plan was 4 days in Melbourne then on to NZ for two weeks

5:30 am

rubyfoo

(lunch arrived)

5:31 am

Neither son nor his wife are working right now so it's all pleasure. As the French say, 3it'snot my onions!

5:32 am

5:40 am

rubyfoo

30 left, bye fr now

5:42 am

MollyL

I had to look up "it's not my onions". It means "it's none of my business". : D

5:43 am

MollyL

Mothers often have to remember that one.

5:43 am

Uneaixoise

tx Ruby and Molly -- new to me! :-)

6:03 am

rubyfoo

It's better in French, "Lost in Translation"maybe

6:04 am

rubyfoo

BTW, do** anybody else LOVE that movie?

6:06 am

doseffing

... Bill murray for the oscar ...

6:11 am

car.eeyore

Good morning

6:21 am

pabtrek

sen ne

6:21 am

pabtrek

sorry about that

6:31 am

rubyfoo

I've watched it 3 times and he gets better each time. Did he win an oscar?

6:32 am

doseffing

... no ... but I voted for him ... in the pool at school

6:33 am

rubyfoo

Who won the Booker Prize last night? I fell asleep but dreamed I was at a Trump party and somebody stolemy car

6:34 am

bichon

ruby, do you voe in US elections?

6:34 am

rubyfoo

This awful election invades my dreams!

6:34 am

ladycece920

the young man who wrote "The Sellout" won the Booker.

6:34 am

rubyfoo

I could but don't. I can barely get out of bed in the morning....

6:35 am

doseffing

... Paul Beatty for The Sellout ... haven't read it

6:35 am

rubyfoo

TY Cece. It's hard to stay up

6:36 am

doseffing

... I'm sure that Donald would object but is voting by proxy available to you ... I'm sure it would be too late now but maybe next time

6:36 am

rubyfoo

When I order books fromAmazon or clothers from LLBean, the postage cost more than the orders

6:37 am

ladycece920

international rates are exorbitant.

6:37 am

bichon

Can you get a Kindle and read them electronically?

6:37 am

rubyfoo

I am so anxious about this election, that I even dream about Donald (ptuii)

6:38 am

ladycece920

i voted yesterday - love early voting!

6:38 am

rubyfoo

Is reading with a Kindle eye straining like the computer?

6:38 am

Trifioso

on behalf of all sane americans, I apologize for Donald trump. he is absolutely the LOWEST common denominator

6:39 am

Trifioso

and good morning

6:39 am

bichon

Second that. This is an embarassment for all sane Americans.

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Amen, Trif!!!

6:40 am

rubyfoo

And my friends here are allhorrified by what's going on

6:40 am

rubyfoo

fearful for Nato and more

6:40 am

bichon

All I can say is: How can this have happened? It hurts me to see Trump signs here in Connecticut

6:41 am

Trifioso

I have stomach cramps just thinking what would happen if he did win. He is the WORST. And, even if he loses, I can never turn a blind eye to the fact that he got so much traction in the first place. America has an underbelly of ignorant people that horrifies me, and is WAY WORSE than I had ever imagined.

6:41 am

rubyfoo

I think nobody took him seriously in time

6:42 am

Trifioso

The woman who leads the Rep party in Ohio was interviewed on TV completely dissing Obama, and actually said, on national television "He has ruined everything! This country never had a race problem until he came to power!" I. can't.

6:42 am

bichon

A big reason is that so few people voted in the primaries

6:42 am

rubyfoo

I'm afraid that even when he loses, there'll be violence in the aftermath

6:43 am

rubyfoo

<it's very scary, even at this distance

6:44 am

bichon

There will be something, for sure. I don't even think he wants to be President. It's all about his ego

6:44 am

rubyfoo

I saw a clip of Obama mocking Trump. It wasn't very presidential, but I loved it.

6:45 am

rubyfoo

If I'm still alive, I'll vote for Michelle Obama in '28!!!

6:45 am

Alycia

rubyfoo

6:49 am

doseffing

6:50 am

lynxxx

hi Ruby and all

6:50 am

doseffing

... is the next french election going to be any better than the current american one,ruby?

6:50 am

hurshy

top two rows grey!

6:51 am

rubyfoo

not better. Sarkozy- is deeply unpopular, LePen is Trump in drag.....

6:51 am

Deeha

6:52 am

lynxxx

We got the guy we wanted - but he turned out the be a Fizzer

6:53 am

rubyfoo

6:53 am

Deeha

6:54 am

doseffing

6:55 am

Trifioso

LOVE that....but how to use it, when no one over here would know what it means? hmmm....perhaps I will start a new craze! Fizzers!

6:55 am

doseffing

... We got the son of the guy we wanted ... ... looks good but doesn't have his father's gravitas ... cute kids though

6:58 am

lynxxx

We have v. funny show over here called Gruen Report...always has a segment on "what would Justin do"...very funny little segments on what the gorgeous PM is doing. Host is gay and fancies Justin a lot.

6:58 am

Deeha

sorry only just saw what I did

7:00 am

doseffing

... Justin is a very nice young man ... and an acceptable alternative to the Donald Trump that the conservatives will nominate because that branch of the party will take it over

7:00 am

Deeha

Know the feeling Ruby my husband is in the bottom of my daughters wardrobe accompaniedby her two cats!

7:01 am

doseffing

... but surely we can do better ......we,like everyone else, just don't seem to be able to ...

7:03 am

lynxxx

seems all the idols have clay feet nowadays - or is it just that we find out about them almost instantly now. Can't hide anything anymore.

7:03 am

Anniebrook

name that proper noun...popular ketchup

7:03 am

rubyfoo

I'm not so sure any more, dose

7:03 am

doseffing

... the slowest running ketchup in the west ...north,south and east

rubyfoo

or Kerry's wife

7:04 am

Anniebrook

7:04 am

lynxxx

hi Annie

7:04 am

Anniebrook

ding ding ding!!!

7:04 am

Anniebrook

hi lynxxx

7:05 am

lynxxx

whats the name of the ketchup?

7:05 am

doseffing

... I think it's the instant news ... in unending volume ... volume both as quantity and loudness

7:05 am

doseffing

... Heinz

7:05 am

Anniebrook

ruby and dose got it..Heinz

7:05 am

doseffing

... my quote is from a very old commercial

7:05 am

RoundBarn

Trif, Bichon, if still here--yes, about the horror of Trujmp. Aoszen of us older women have made a taoe for Hillary--hi ow far women have come, how far we have yet to go--i need to put it on here--its calleed voices from the heartland--

7:07 am

RoundBarn

dozen. I fear violence too, even if Trump were to win--at this point it looks like he won't, but we have to get the senate to stop the gridlock

7:07 am

doseffing

... must leave some for later ... sunny skies and luck for all ... bye for now

7:07 am

lynxxx

by Dos

7:08 am

Anniebrook

It was upsetting when Sarah Palin was running for the vice presidency. It is now worse. We have Donald Trump. Yes, he makes my stomach ache when I see and hear him on TV.

7:08 am

rubyfoo

and Pence is no day on the beach!

7:09 am

RoundBarn

I view Babblers as intelligent--don't think we'll find T supporters here--

7:09 am

Anniebrook

I fear for this country.

7:09 am

rubyfoo

I saw 2 Ã©pisodes of a naty new series on HBO, The Young Pope. Catholics must be furious!

7:10 am

Trifioso

7:10 am

rubyfoo

nassty* series

7:10 am

Trifioso

one of my saddest sadnesses about my mum being lost to us due to alzheimers is that she never got to cast her vote for a woman president. She would have been SO excited!

7:11 am

RoundBarn

I mosxtly lurk but I admire so many of you. Was gone for a while--what has happened to Crossy? He was always interesting. Unique.

7:12 am

Trifioso

wait crossy left? I am so out of the loop

7:12 am

rubyfoo

Political discussions, although I relish them, generally turn sour

7:13 am

lynxxx

too many brickbats for Crossy I think

7:13 am

rastapopolous

hey rb lurking here also

7:13 am

rubyfoo

I hope he's OK, another cancer survivor

7:14 am

rubyfoo

7:15 am

RoundBarn

hi, raxta--you're up early. Now you know I was--am--on Yosh's tape. Of course I wanted Bernie--but the reality is, we can't lose the supreme court and the climate

7:16 am

rastapopolous

Trifioso

RoundBarn

7:17 am

rubyfoo

7:17 am

lynxxx

Trifioso

lambobuick

This is my first time playing this crazy game. Just wondering how one could know they need to find a 6 letter word worth 18 points starting with an SE before they find it? By the way, I SWEAR I've found every word in here and it says I still have 33 left. LOL

10:58 am

ch1212

Welcome lambobuick! There are some helps available, with links at the bottom of the page. The most helpful is LICKETY, who generates a list with the first 2 letters, number of letters, and total points. Have fun!

I am still not comfortable with the past tense of hot. It sounds like something an English teacher would shriek about.

11:21 am

ch1212

If you give to a charity, you do**** to them, making you a do***. The people who get what you gave, are the do***s (that's the singular and plural for you :)

11:21 am

MLFAN17

that looks so strange molly

11:21 am
