12:55 am

12:57 am
cybernan
ah - ty hurshy
12:58 am
hurshy
the co7 and 8 that i said are weirder. i THINK they are to do with sex

1:14 am
rururocks

1:14 am
Lizlin
I would fail at that too! Useless at it.
1:15 am
Lizlin
Can't hold a candle to that one.
1:15 am
hurshy
idk liz, i think a vampire would be so in8d because it's always seeing crosses, so then it would stop and ask what was up with the star, and you'd have a chat, and it'd be grand
1:16 am
Lizlin
You could be right, hurshy. But if you don't have a star to hand, you try making one with your fingers!
1:18 am
hurshy
why did the young Jewish man not get to do his reading of scripture? because he Torah hole in it
1:18 am
Lizlin
Taking a break. Not seeing any words. BBL. Good luck
1:19 am
TraderKate
those throwing stars are pretty deadly - at least according to all those genre movies...
1:19 am
hurshy
what is it about certain british and commonwealth tv shows, that they have main characters you dislike or don't care about, but you love all the supporting characters like crazy
1:21 am
hurshy
examples: 800 Words (aus/nz), Monarch of the Glen (scotland), East of Everything (aus/nz)
1:25 am
TraderKate
never saw that last one hurshy... like 800 words.
disappointed that liturge isn't a word to go with all the churchy ones.
1:26 am
hurshy
i like 800 Words a lot, but i basically like every character EXCEPT the dad.
1:27 am
TraderKate
I didn't mind him... but haven't seen it in a while. Have beem trouble getting PBS to come in well.
1:28 am
hurshy
i subscribe to two british streaming services cause i'm, you know, such a wannabe
1:28 am
TraderKate
:D you're not apologising are you?
1:28 am
hurshy
no, not really :)
1:29 am
hurshy
i'm just ashamed of my ancestors
1:29 am
hurshy
i mean you have ONE king with acute intermittent porphyria and you just give up on the whole thing?
1:29 am
TraderKate
oh dear... skeletons in the family tree?
1:30 am
hurshy
the family being america and the skeleton being the revolution
1:30 am
TraderKate
ah... I see.
1:31 am
hurshy
pity we aren't having the same reaction to our current crazy would-be-king...
1:31 am
TraderKate
wait a while...
1:32 am
hurshy
latest thing i saw was how there are people who used to have important jobs in the government, but now, under trump, because he can't understand the law that says all his documents have to be preserved for the historical record and tears everything up, now those people's whole job is taping papers back together that he tore up
1:33 am
TraderKate
really???? wow. :(
1:34 am
hurshy
it's adorable that you can still be surprised by this.
1:35 am
Kamanjah
Two of them were handed resignation letters to sign. Neither have jobs, and one fought it. Deplorable

1:37 am
Kamanjah
I saw it all over FB today, will post for you tomorrow when I see it again, Kate.
1:38 am
hurshy
kate you can just google people tape trump's papers
1:38 am
Kamanjah
I keep politics off of my wall most of the time.
1:38 am
TraderKate

2:06 am
Kamanjah
Kate, found the paper shredder/taper link and PM'd you on FB
2:06 am
TraderKate
OH! TYVM Kam! much appreciated.
2:07 am
TraderKate
You said it... hi ursh, welcome to the 5th circle of hell ;)
2:08 am
Kamanjah
YW, yeah, this grid...I'm just not getting into finding obscurity tonight, the news has been enough for my brain today, lol!
2:10 am
TraderKate
here's a great example:
GI 6/27... only consonants are at either end.. not even a sometimes vowel :(
2:12 am
TraderKate
means: a derogatory term for a non-Muslim, especialkly a Christian, used mostly by the Turks.
2:30 am
TraderKate
Did anyone get the IN 8/55, IN 9/72 combo? I think they have something to do with music...
2:32 am
TraderKate
nm... they are nothing to do with music :(
2:47 am
Kamanjah
More like "very interesting" to me...
2:48 am
TraderKate
like the nationasl and international stage these days. Interesting times, indeed.
2:51 am
Kamanjah
That's a polite description!
3:00 am
TraderKate
well... that this grid will go down in infamy as one of the sinkiest and stickiest grids ever :(
3:06 am
jwr
Isn't the nauga that animal they make all those furniture covers from?
3:08 am
Kamanjah
hahaha jwr! My mom had one of those sticky nauga covers on her sofa, ugh!
3:09 am
jwr
thank goodness somebody got it! I was beginning to think I'd remembered wrong. It was awful stuff.
3:10 am
jwr
Kate: sinkiest? Did I miss something?
3:11 am
Kamanjah
I crocheted so many covers for that thing! Couldn't wear shorts and sit on it in the summer. I don't know why she kept it, but it has met its end somewhere. I hope she has more comfy sits in heaven.
3:12 am
jwr
You crocheted furniture covers?? Good grief. I've done afghans -- oh gosh, I just realized that was an old joke too....
3:14 am
Kamanjah
No, just afghans to cover it up. hahaha, I think this grid is looping us all
3:14 am
jwr
I was just thinking that. There's something goofy about it.
3:16 am
jwr
Good joshing you Kamanjah -- Gotta go back to work. Later, if you're still trying to unlock the grid. Bye,
3:32 am
TraderKate
sorry Kam.. that was yet another typo *stinkiest*
3:33 am

The weather is crazy! Pleasant and warm in the afternoon, cool in the mornings and big storms in the evening.
4:44 am
MollyL
We have gone cool here. It is kind of nice. I will enjoy it before the hot and humid days hit.
4:45 am
rubyfoo
Do you have mosquitoes?
4:46 am
MollyL
Yes, we have mosquitoes. And if they don't treat the creek in the woods behind me, they are fierce.
4:47 am
rubyfoo
When we firstmoved here, almost 20 yrs ago, there were no mosquitoes but as the climate is changing, l think there'll be more and more
4:48 am
rubyfoo
Fortunately, there's a bat cave just abovee aand lthink those cute, tiny, black bats will take care of the problem
4:51 am
rubyfoo
The bats come at dusk to drink from the fishpond
4:53 am
MollyL
Nice that you have the bats to take care of the mosquitoes. Mosquitoes breed in standing water so if not for the bats you would have quit a problem.
4:54 am
rubyfoo
There's a fou_ntain in the center of thee pond, so that water is always moving
4:54 am
MollyL
Wow, here is a cool fact from my friend Google...A single bat can eat up to 1,200 mosquito-sized insects every hour
4:55 am
MollyL
The bats must hang out near you because of the good feeding ground
4:56 am
rubyfoo
L've alwaysliked bats, but evidently, theree are rrabid bats in Italy, so l'm hoping they don't cross the AQlps!
4:57 am
rubyfoo
If i sit on the grass at dusk, the bats fly in circles (close) aroundme and the dog
4:58 am
rubyfoo
My husband didn't like them and when one came in the house, he closed the bedroom door and said "You take care of it!"
5:08 am
MollyL
Oh nice, you got to "take care of" the bats.

I used to have a lot of bats at my house by a lake in northern Westchester NY... it was hilarious to watch my cat circle his head around, mirroring them flying about the chandeliers in the great room at dusk.
7:26 am

But sadly there was a rabies problem, so every time he'd catch and kill one, we had to freeze it and take it to the county health dept for testing.

did a copy and paste and it said 'page not found'!!
8:09 am
lorena_k
weird well one suggestion was looking at the icons on the function keys on the top row. if you see on that looks like a rectangle above two smaller ones that is the mouse disable
8:11 am
lorena_k
another person said press control and f4 and control and f8 but I wouldn't suggest that unless you look at the icons because it could do something worse :p
8:14 am
Deeha
IVE DONE IT!!! Many thanks lorena you are a star!!!!

"Why is a ***** like a writing-desk?"
11:19 am
Douglas
I thought the answer was "Because they are both written upon." On further review, Lewis Carroll proposed an answer: Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is never put with the wrong end in front!" The early issues of the revision spell "never" as "nevar", ie "*****" with the wrong end in front.
