Nice small church with an upstairs gallery. Great acoustics.

12:30 am

12:31 am

melonheadjujube

I never much listen to quartets on the radio or in recording. seeing is as much a part of the experience, and the sound of great string players live is amazing.

12:31 am

melonheadjujube

12:31 am

m9f9l

12:32 am

m9f9l

Sounds like the lovely little church we sing the Messiah in.

12:32 am

m9f9l

I can't see all the tiles.. refreshing AGAIN... lOL

12:33 am

melonheadjujube

It's a congregational church, Plymouth Church in Shaker Heights. Nice plain white interior and an organ.

12:34 am

cybernan

sounds like a great concert

12:35 am

m9f9l

Ah. The one we sing in isn't actually a church anymore. But they saved it as a landmark.

12:36 am

m9f9l

And we have string players live for it, but I'm not so sure I'd use the word "amazing".. LOL

12:36 am

m9f9l

But it's fun, and it's nice to get together as a community to make music and sing praise.

12:37 am

melonheadjujube

hi, m9f9l, I see you're a mathophilic. I'm a retired musician, substitute teaching. Math teachers know if they give me a lesson plan I will learn it and help the students. I LOVE when the lightbulb goes on. Tutored adults too for a number of years.

12:38 am

cybernan

finally found the pa 7,9 but don't see the 8

12:38 am

m9f9l

Nice! Do you have snow yet? I was looking at pics of the church you went to and it looks so pretty in the snow!

12:39 am

melonheadjujube

There are so many great ways to make music. I played professionally, and now enjoy being an amateur. I love hearing Bach cantats sung by church choirs in churches.

12:39 am

m9f9l

And yup, math and music..they go together :-)

12:39 am

flosey

it's a pt Nan

12:39 am

melonheadjujube

No, we don't! Chicago has snow, New York has snow, at least up in Westchester, and here in CLEâ€”nope!

12:40 am

melonheadjujube

Yikes. Saw the clock, must hit the hay. Nice meeting you, m9+. Buona notte!

12:40 am

m9f9l

I just found out my friend (and accompanist) has perfect pitch, like my Mom had. Less than one in 10,000 have it.

12:40 am

melonheadjujube

[poof!]

12:40 am

flosey

we have snow here on the west coast gulf islands - quite unusual

12:40 am

cybernan

12:40 am

m9f9l

Night melon!

12:41 am

cybernan

yes flosey - is everything at a standstill?

12:41 am

cybernan

I think we are expecting snow tonight

12:41 am

flosey

not quite but driving is a bit nasty - cancelled Monday night bridge

12:41 am

m9f9l

Seattle too.. we've had just a light dusting on the hills and stuff at our level that didn't stick at all.

12:42 am

m9f9l

That sounds like I'm in Seattle. I'm not. LOL

12:42 am

m9f9l

Ha. yp words. so silly. I like what the dictionary has to say about THAT one!

Hello have a nice day

6:04 am

grannyrose

cooee and g'day from me again.

6:04 am

rubyfoo

hello rosie!!!

6:04 am

grannyrose

6:05 am

rubyfoo

How are you doing?

6:05 am

grannyrose

oh my. so lovely to see you sweetie. i was thiking of you, as always, today, and hoping you are well.

6:06 am

grannyrose

mwah... denervation has left my knee quite tender. have given in and taken one endone.

6:06 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs Rose and Ruby

6:06 am

rubyfoo

I am doing very well, thank you; I had my scan on Monday and the canceer is stable!

6:07 am

rubyfoo

HBello Liz

6:07 am

grannyrose

whooot!! just need spritey and the gang is all here. xoxox lizgirl

6:08 am

rubyfoo

There's no point in hurting if you can avoid it. That's what my oncologist says. Hurting doesn't do any good OR build character

6:08 am

Lizlin

Such good news for Ruby :). Hope your knee settles soon, Rose. Good that you've taken something for it.

6:08 am

Lizlin

Sensible oncologist!

6:09 am

rubyfoo

I take less oxy then I did a year ago, but I now take the same, small amount, whether I hurt or not

6:09 am

grannyrose

good news ruby.

6:09 am

Lizlin

Are you keeping warm, Ruby?

6:10 am

grannyrose

that's called preventative or maintenance meds, ruby. very wise.

6:10 am

rubyfoo

Not very warm, but that, too, is manageable. It's great for sleeping, but the house is less than 50F in the morning

6:11 am

Lizlin

Oooh - brrrr! That's 10C. Cold.

6:11 am

rubyfoo

Since I have no help on Wed, I had to make the fire myself and I succeeded

6:11 am

grannyrose

wanna change places ruby? too warm for me here but i am guessing it would be perfect for you... lol

6:12 am

Lizlin

Really hot here this week and stormy too, so humid. Not very pleasant.

6:12 am

rubyfoo

As long as there's heat in the bathroom (and guestroom, hint hint), I'm OK. Maybe being cold builds character LOL

6:12 am

grannyrose

yeah, have been seeing the super-storms on the news. are you and himself safe?

6:12 am

jmcnrick

hi all

6:13 am

rubyfoo

How bad are th storms?

6:13 am

grannyrose

hey jmc... long time no see

6:13 am

Lizlin

Mostly the main parts of the storms miss us - we just get the edge of them. Lots of rumbly thunder though and some impressive lightning.

6:13 am

rubyfoo

Hello JMC; I haven't seen you in ages

6:13 am

Lizlin

Pretty bad in places north of here, Ruby.

6:13 am

Lizlin

Hi jmc

6:13 am

jmcnrick

I pop in from time to time--more now that I am "on the dole" for a while

6:14 am

grannyrose

down here a camper was struck by lightning and was killed. so sad.

6:14 am

grannyrose

are you okay jmc?

6:14 am

Lizlin

Someone camping on Mount Warning was also killed.

6:15 am

jmcnrick

yeah. . . just not much world saving for me these days

6:15 am

grannyrose

awww jmc.

6:15 am

jmcnrick

so doing boring work to keep the wolf from the door

6:15 am

jmcnrick

but the boring work is looooooong hours so no energy to babble. . .

6:16 am

Lizlin

Anything better on the horizon?

6:16 am

rubyfoo

that sounds tough and dull, but better than wolves

6:16 am

jmcnrick

I apply for this and that but age has become a factor. . .

6:16 am

grannyrose

ugh jmc. hope you can be enervated by your night's sleep.

6:17 am

jmcnrick

well now I am between boring jobs so can babble but of course I am worried about money. . . .it's always something. . .

6:17 am

grannyrose

jmc, doesn't that make your teeth grind? your age should be a plus.

6:17 am

jmcnrick

really I know granny. . . what is the point of experience if I can't use it?

6:18 am

jmcnrick

but I am at least mentoring a young executive director of an organization. . . for free :/

6:18 am

Lizlin

Cheaper to employ younger people :( False economy though in many cases.

6:18 am

grannyrose

my late employer could not see that. it was all about the almighty dollar, not experience or good patient care.

6:18 am

rubyfoo

My oncologist/friend is 61 and has the same problem here. The young doctors are competitive and nobody cares about her vast experience.

6:18 am

jmcnrick

my sister, however, who has 5 years on me has been able to find a boy friends and do some really interesting work. . .

6:19 am

jmcnrick

i am trying not to be jealous as hell of her. . . :)

6:19 am

Lizlin

Good for her - maybe some of her luck will rub off on you!

6:19 am

rubyfoo

She is marking time 'til Spring when she can stop doing her temporary job where she barely sees patients

6:20 am

jmcnrick

I understand her problem. . . but my problem is that world saving is not conducive to a big retirement fund. . . so I work

6:21 am

jmcnrick

what are the stats for the i word please

6:21 am

Lizlin

ir 5/12

6:21 am

jmcnrick

ty

6:21 am

rubyfoo

My friend was with Doctors Without Borders, so didn't accrueed adequate social security

6:22 am

jmcnrick

yeah. . .I did a pretty good job saving until the boy decided he n***ed to go back to school

6:23 am

grannyrose

now that is so wrong, ruby. volunteer work is so important. something should be in place for those wonderful people who volunteer.

6:23 am

Lizlin

Idealistic, Rose!

6:24 am

Lizlin

It should be but it isn't!

6:24 am

jmcnrick

communist! ;)

6:24 am

jmcnrick

actually I think they should be paid. . .

6:24 am

grannyrose

and ?? why not, liz?? ahhh... saw your response

6:24 am

Lizlin

It's late for you to be on babble, Rose, isn't it?

6:25 am

Lizlin

Not that I have a problem with that :)

6:25 am

grannyrose

yup... waiting for my meds to kick in. endone working....

6:26 am

Lizlin

Ah! I often babble at this time - we watch a movie or something and then I come and find few words.

6:26 am

rubyfoo

I do the same thing, liz, I Watch movies 'til very late, but find I sleep better

6:27 am

grannyrose

uh huh !! i usually do the grid and then keep checking in to see if sprite is here. have a chat with her, plus others, then log off.

6:27 am

Lizlin

It's an hour earlier here than for Rose. So I'm running through the list for the first time. At the moment I've 43 left.

6:28 am

bichon

Hello from Norway; where the sunrises at 9AM and sunset at noon
