I think rehome came into use in more recent years with animal shelters

8:22 am

hokie carla

I never heard it when I was younger

8:22 am

rururocks

8:22 am

hokie carla

8:25 am

hokie carla

nice, hi/bye, aloy!

8:26 am

hokie carla

may be hard to spot in the chats as she just sticks her head in for a clue now and then

8:28 am

rururocks

the way some babble players are vanishing lately, I don't want to lose my favorite people

8:29 am

BzznBea

Who else has vanished?

8:29 am

hokie carla

<---imagines a serial killer knocking us off one by one

8:31 am

mael

phantom: tenement

8:31 am

hokie carla

The Word Game Serial Killer thing is creepy.

8:41 am

hokie carla

it's that time of year for creepy

8:41 am

MollyL

Rewrites the Police song...it's murder by letters, ABC it's as easy as counting 123...

8:41 am

MollyL

I wonder if we should start looking for pictures on milk cartons

8:44 am

rururocks

there would be babblets left as clues at the crime scene

8:44 am

hokie carla

man, I hate m's

8:46 am

rururocks

detective to cop .. "what the hell does Tenrec mean written in blood on the wall?"

8:46 am

hokie carla

lol, but then some of us would hear a podcast about it and solve it pretty quickly

8:46 am

hokie carla

with that kind of clue

8:49 am

BzznBea

NTPN - Male Olympic athlete turned female

8:49 am

hokie carla

jenner

8:49 am

BzznBea

easy one

8:50 am

rururocks

I started to blurt it out but was cut off

8:50 am

hokie carla

maybe

8:50 am

MollyL

And no one knew that the killer was knocking off the top points players so they could get to the top of the list. BEWARE

8:51 am

hokie carla

I'm safe in that case, whew

8:51 am

MollyL

Me too

8:52 am

rururocks

scary for peri and marigold then

8:52 am

rururocks

they're next :D

8:52 am

saanichcat

8:52 am

saanichcat

8:52 am

rururocks

lol.. someone got it :D

8:53 am

saanichcat

well all done here, any cles needed

8:53 am

hokie carla

I didn't even see it until saanich posted. one of those that gets sandwiched in.

8:54 am

rururocks

most of my jokes are often overlooked :D

8:54 am

hokie carla

congrats

8:54 am

saanichcat

maybe with good reason...

8:54 am

saanichcat

tanks carla

8:54 am

MollyL

Not to mention the ones that no one gets. This collective mind is very clean.

8:54 am

hokie carla

I just finished first pass and need 1 lower O for HOET

8:55 am

saanichcat

my typing is awful, sorry

8:55 am

hokie carla

oh, i had a good one yesterday but didn't use it because I didn't know how this crowd would take it

8:55 am

rururocks

insinuating that my mind is dirty?

8:55 am

saanichcat

on 7/28? sounds like a grouch

8:55 am

MollyL

No I would never insinuate that. Just state it as a fact.

8:56 am

hokie carla

HOET!

8:56 am

rururocks

HA

8:56 am

saanichcat

agreed Mooly

8:56 am

saanichcat

ahhs sh** sorry Molly

8:57 am

mael

thanks saanich!

8:57 am

hokie carla

and that clue was also a sandwich post. but that's my missing o down there, so will look, thanks

8:57 am

mael

I'm just here to say that I like sandwiches

8:58 am

MollyL

And that is how we get from dirty minds to sandwiches

8:58 am

rururocks

that's what I had for dinner.. grilled cheese with caramelized onions and soup

8:58 am

BzznBea

The other from that O is or5.10

8:59 am

mael

but it's not oreos, which are the sandwich of cookies

8:59 am

mael

that sounds delicious, ru

9:01 am

HarryHood

ultimate comfort food

9:01 am

saanichcat

off to get on with errands, great to have a small chat, hope everyone has a good day

9:02 am

rururocks

bye saan talk saturday

9:04 am

mael

bye!

9:04 am

mael

I made lentil soup yesterday and it was delicious

9:05 am

HarryHood

80. that will likely be all for me today. have a good day all

9:05 am

rururocks

I made tomato soup.. fresh from the garden

9:05 am

HarryHood

mael did you buy your brother's birthright?

9:05 am

rururocks

bye harry

9:06 am

rururocks

buy what?

9:06 am

HarryHood

I always try to leave with a vague biblical reference.

9:06 am

HarryHood

jacob bought esau's birthright for a bowl of lentil soup.

9:07 am

rururocks

oh.. ok.. you had lost me

9:07 am

HarryHood

yeah it's hard to follow my meandering brain these days.

9:07 am

HarryHood

bye!

9:09 am

hokie carla

lol, I was trying to see where a package was and came back to this

9:12 am

mael

hah, you had lost me too. It's been A LONG time since sunday school and I've since recovered :)

9:12 am

rururocks

I got kicked out of sunday school

9:12 am

mael

good for you ru, I wish

9:13 am

rururocks

I cut up too much in the class.. I thought it was really stupid even at that age

9:14 am

hokie carla

well, I gotta get busy. think I will take winston on a hike. TTFN.

9:15 am

hokie carla

69 left for later

9:15 am

mael

my mother managed to force me to go until I was confirmed, which was a whole waste of time given that I was already an atheist by then

9:15 am

mael

have a great hike hokie

9:15 am

rururocks

i think i was an atheist from an early age too

9:17 am

rururocks

i failed to believe the Adam's rib thing

9:18 am

rururocks

the funny thing is my parents never went to church and yet they sent me to Sunday school like it would be a better influence on me. I never understood that

9:20 am

mael

when I told my father, who was an atheist, that nothing about it made any sense to me he just explained to me that the whole thing made sense if you read the bible as an allegory, like zeus and thunderbolts. Which, yeah.

9:20 am

mael

I must have been 7 or so. I just didn't grok why all the myths were MYTHS and yet I was expected to believe... a whole other set of myths as truth

9:21 am

rururocks

I think I was younger than that

9:22 am

Shirlockc

i always thought of the adam's rib thing like cloning

9:25 am

movieman

Some people now think that Eve wasn't made from one of Adam's ribs, but rather his penis bone, because other mammals have one but not humans....

9:25 am

rururocks

i heard Adam kept ribbing Eve all the time

9:26 am

rururocks

it wasn't the Serpent that Eve was worried about

9:30 am

mael

it was the trouser snake?

9:30 am

hurshy

no, they didn't have trousers yet!

9:30 am

rururocks

a friendly one mael

9:31 am

rururocks

<-- glad he doesn't have to go through life wearing fig leaves

9:32 am

mael

I'd rather go naked but the weather in MA is not conducive to it and neither are the bugs

9:33 am

rururocks

it must have always been summer for them.. fig leaves aren't around here in the winter

9:33 am

hurshy

i was complaining about mosquitoes to someone who lives elsewhere in the world and they were like, "but, yours don't have malaria or anything, right?" like they couldn't comprehend what the problem would be if they don't have diseases

9:34 am

rururocks

Mosquitos don't bother me .. must be my blood type

9:34 am

rururocks

or my abv levels

9:34 am

rururocks

:D

9:35 am

mael

hah, pickled Ru

9:35 am

mael

and we do have diseases here in MA too! West Nile and EEE

9:35 am

rururocks

a lot of hung over mosquitos here in Napa

9:36 am

movieman

The last mosquito that bit me had to check into the Betty Ford clinic - Patsy Stone

9:37 am

rururocks

:D

9:38 am

mael

phantom: menhir

9:39 am

mael

these damn Ms are a pain

9:39 am

rururocks

no kidding

9:39 am

rururocks

they were tough

9:40 am

rururocks

one really twisty one

9:40 am

rururocks

what's eee thought mael?

9:40 am

mael

Eastern Equine Encephalitis

9:41 am

rururocks

oh..

9:41 am

mael

it's deadly though luckily we only have outbreaks every 8 or 9 years or so

9:41 am

rururocks

you are a horse person?

9:41 am

mael

horses are just a vector

9:42 am

mael

I mean, it kills horses too but it's people that are the problem. It's a virus birds carry, which then get bitten by mosquitoes and passed on to horses and people

9:43 am

mael

last big outbreak was 2019 and it was terrifying, they canceled all school events in the afternoon, kids weren't allowed outside, we had community curfews at dusk

9:48 am

rururocks

which state do you live in Mael?

9:48 am

mael

MA

9:48 am

rururocks

oh wow.. really up there?

9:48 am

mael

Happens in CT too, and a few cases in the midwest

9:50 am

mael

yeah, it's still rare, don't get me wrong, but a little girl my daughter's age from the next town over was left permanently disabled the week she started Kindergarten. It was a sad fall, with everyone hoping for a hard frost sooner rather than later. All parents waiting for the 10 days between a mosquito bite and the potential emergence of symptoms...

9:50 am

mael

I think 12 people died that year

9:51 am

rururocks

I think we have West Nile out here.. but it's not a rampant problem (yet)

9:52 am

mael

damn skeeters

9:52 am

mael

I'd be very happy if we could figure out a way to make them extinct without messing up the food wed

9:52 am

mael

web

9:52 am

mael

ticks too while we're at it

9:53 am

rururocks

ticks are scary.. we have a bad lyme problem out here.

9:53 am

mael

here too

9:53 am

mael

they're working on a lyme vaccine, thankfully, but that's not the only tick borne thing that we need to worry about

9:54 am

mael

they're enrolling for human vaccine trials for Lyme, I'm hoping I can get in

9:55 am

rururocks

off to work now.. have a great day

9:56 am

mael

bye ru, have a great day
