hi

1:05 am

herinfernallady

nope not sticking

1:05 am

mrpresident

hi josh

1:06 am

herinfernallady

Mr RPes I hate to say this but there should be more rental clauses about children as they can do more damage than pets or smokers

1:07 am

mrpresident

infern, I feel that we were accepted cause we only have 2 children... and they are very well known in the community as being very well behaved.
The family that owns the house knows good friends of ours. So our kids came with a good behaviour clause automatically
and, yes, I agree with that

1:08 am

westford

my daughter is the ultimate pet lover and rented to people with pets but it wasn't the pets she had a problem with it was the owners not taking proper care of them

1:08 am

Hugabugs

Hi everyone

1:08 am

herinfernallady

Yes and snicker on kids with behaviour clause

1:09 am

herinfernallady

Hi hugs.

1:09 am

herinfernallady

OH and my b.f and i are garden gnome smokers. we smoke far far away from others

1:09 am

mrpresident

This area is small community, even though it is in sydney, it is in a pocket where everyone knows everyone.
Lucky for us, our kids and pets are very well known

joshuavorbis

can't sleep - boy the chat log slowed to a halt, didn't it

2:26 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Shhh, josh - everyone asleep in here ! :)

2:26 am

sandyloo

actually , i'm awake

2:27 am

joshuavorbis

*sits on whoopie cushion*

2:27 am

sandyloo

have 75 left

2:27 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Hi sandy :)

2:27 am

joshuavorbis

58 left here

2:28 am

sandyloo

josh are you looking forward to the election

2:28 am

sandyloo

hi lorrie

2:28 am

joshuavorbis

i do believe i'm waiting for the election to be over with so things can actually start getting done

2:30 am

sandyloo

I think everyone is doing that and waiting for it to be off the television after two years of it

2:30 am

sprite

morning all

2:31 am

joshuavorbis

it will be interesting to see where all this energy that is so easily tapped into during election season goes once it's all decided

2:31 am

sprite

oh Lorrie, beautiful wolf you have there!

2:31 am

sandyloo

and all the money josh

2:31 am

Lorrie_in_SA

G'd morning, sprite! :)

2:31 am

sandyloo

oops I better get a wolf too

2:32 am

Lorrie_in_SA

I was thinking the same about yours, sprite! Very lovely! :)

2:32 am

sprite

thanks :)

2:32 am

joshuavorbis

it's heaps and heaps of money, that's true, but citizens are going to have to start to take responsibility for how things go here and stop using their energy to blame someone else

2:42 am

sprite

is it a fun grid, Lorrie? Looks that way.

2:43 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Not too bad at all, sprite.. Even though I have been in and out of here all day as packing the move..

2:43 am

sprite

about to move? Exciting! Where are you moving to?

2:44 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Going back down to Cape Town.. Can't wait!

2:44 am

sprite

am so glad for you! Moving is always a hectic thing, but when it is done you will be where you wanna be :)

2:45 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Very true! :)

2:45 am

sprite

when is the actual move?

2:46 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Over the weekend will be the final shift... Phew!! :\

2:47 am

sprite

woot! Almost there then. Will think of you :) Good luck and enjoy setting up place there.

2:47 am

Lorrie_in_SA

This seems worse than when I first emigrate out here... Probably have more rubbish now!

2:48 am

sprite

hehehe, we people are natural collectors, it seems.

2:48 am

Lorrie_in_SA

I think hoarder is more apt for me, sprite! lol

2:48 am

sprite

*giggles*

2:49 am

joshuavorbis

i will be a crazy old man with 8x too much dusty furniture in his house by the time its all said and done

2:49 am

sprite

lol josh

2:49 am

Lorrie_in_SA

I'll just be crazy!

2:50 am

joshuavorbis

my friends already make fun of me for how many tables i have in my 1br apartment

2:50 am

sprite

tables are handy things though

2:50 am

joshuavorbis

i agree

2:51 am

sprite

I will settle for old, grin

2:51 am

joshuavorbis

though soon i'm going to have to start stacking them one on the other to fit them all in

2:52 am

sprite

I have to say, josh, that the handiness of tables gets slightly less as soon as you stack them one on another.

2:53 am

joshuavorbis

*shoulders droop*

2:53 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Well, back to the paper, tape and boxes...

2:53 am

joshuavorbis

i suppose you're right

2:53 am

sprite

good luck packing, Lorrie

2:53 am

Lorrie_in_SA

See you later...

2:53 am

sprite

but then again, some tables can be beautiful enough to warrant such display

2:53 am

joshuavorbis

godspeed, lorrie - best of luck

2:53 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Thanks, sprite - take care..

2:54 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Bye josh... :)

2:54 am

joshuavorbis

oh man, THE NUGE is in the grid, i just realized

2:54 am

sprite

lolol

2:55 am

sprite

I started out with phantom toadier, then found a word that was related. Then I sipped my coffee and that made me find other words. It is an interesting day, grin.

2:56 am

joshuavorbis

i found most all the longer words on my own so far - can't find my last q though

2:57 am

sprite

go josh gooo!

2:58 am

sprite

I only have 2 Qs so far, and one 7 and one 8. But it looks like a grid that will cough up the rest when I prod it.

2:59 am

joshuavorbis

if you would like a clue for anything just wave

2:59 am

sprite

I will, thanks for the kind offer! For now I am happy blundering along.

3:00 am

sprite

just want pacifier to be there

3:00 am

joshuavorbis

ditto - i'm trying to go as far into the jungle as possible before resorting to lickety

3:00 am

joshuavorbis

di6ent is so so close to being in the grid

3:01 am

sprite

I can usually manage with blundering and the clues that I happen upon in chat nowadays. Though I sometimes peek at lickety's for the length of a missing K word.

3:02 am

sprite

yeah, another bugging phantom, lol

3:02 am

joshuavorbis

my only issue is having the time to blunder along - if i want to finish the puzzle i need to compartmentalize the times i can dedicate to doing so very carefully, or i become a hermit with long facial hair and dirty dishes in the sink

3:03 am

sprite

you certainly have a point there, josh!

3:10 am

bfsog

hey all

3:11 am

sprite

hiya bfsog

3:11 am

bfsog

how are we all

3:12 am

sprite

fighting a massive headache, but otherwise not too bad. The grid is fun so far. How about you?

3:13 am

bfsog

im good thank you.

3:19 am

sprite

I want to enter Groefie. Because I miss our GroovyKiwi

3:19 am

mrpresident

getting rid of a piano certainly is harder than I thought! Even for free!

3:19 am

mrpresident

hi sprite and sog :)

3:20 am

sprite

hey mrP! I would have bought it if you lived closer.

3:21 am

sprite

looking at your profile, mrP... painfree? Hallelujah!

3:22 am

mrpresident

I can ship it sprite! but would have to sell the house to pay for the shipping LOL!

3:22 am

mrpresident

yes sprite... and off those nasty nasty nasty meds! but has been awful

3:22 am

sprite

roflol! Better not :)

3:23 am

mrpresident

we got another house to move into sprite

3:24 am

mrpresident

we move in less than 3 weeks... the anxiety has set in good and proper!

3:24 am

sprite

yes, it has, hasn't it. But you pulled it off! Now it seems to be time for rest and pleasure.

3:24 am

sprite

omg... mrP, another move?

3:26 am

sprite

forgive me for saying so, but that seems to be the last thing you need right now.

3:27 am

mrpresident

last thing I need now yes, but is totally needed. Lickety made the decision and is final now

3:28 am

mrpresident

We will have alot more room and be very comfortable

3:28 am

sandyloo

i'm back and you will find the effort all will be worthwhile pres

3:28 am

mrpresident

the idea of having to move is bloody killing me! I hate moving

3:29 am

sprite

I hope you are going away for the move, mrP. And not force yourself and make all the good work undone!

3:29 am

sprite

very cool icon, sandy!

3:30 am

sandyloo

we have jack russels sprite

3:30 am

mrpresident

there is little packing to do, believe me! where we are, most of our stuff is still in boxes

3:32 am

sprite

and the freaking out part isn't good for you either, mrP. Any way for you to avoid it? I am certain, once you are there, it will be wonderful, but getting there will take some careful handling. Of you.

3:32 am

sandyloo

I have been doing the TAX OF EVIL - now i have to think about dinner which involves a trip to the shop -

3:32 am

sprite

you are a hero, sandy

3:32 am

mrpresident

half my kitchen items are in a hallway, and all my art/craft, precious items etc are in boxes in the garage. would be nice to have the room to have our stuff out again

3:33 am

sprite

(says sorry for sounding like a worried mum)

3:33 am

sandyloo

lol I am a very disgruntled hero - I hate the TOE

3:33 am

mrpresident

sprite, lickety is going to be a very very good boy and do alot of the packing and moving

3:33 am

sandyloo

you will love it Pres

3:33 am

sandyloo

but don't overdo it

3:35 am

mrpresident

i do hope so sandy. i have butterflies thinking about it all... but the house is beautiful!
the 'clauses' that we got about the pets was a page long! I really don't think they wanted pets so they have stacked the odds against us there

3:37 am

sprite

bbl

3:37 am

mrpresident

see you soon

3:38 am

sandyloo

responsible pet owners do not do damage

3:38 am

sandyloo

bye sprite

3:39 am

mrpresident

exactly sandy.

3:39 am

sandyloo

Pres, my husband buys and sells houses so we have moved a lot - although we stayed in the same suburb while the kids were at school but different houses so I know all about it

3:40 am

sandyloo

I packed up and the movers moved the furniture

3:40 am

sandyloo

a lot of work and cleaning up

3:40 am

mrpresident

we have already arranged the movers and the packing shouldn't take too long.

3:41 am

sandyloo

I'll bet you are more organised than me

3:41 am

mrpresident

with two kids?? hahahaha!

3:41 am

sandyloo

I have four-hahaha

3:42 am

sandyloo

three is ok but four is the straw that breaks

3:42 am

mrpresident

i was thinking of just walking around the house with boxes and scooping everything into them, sort it out at the other side!

3:42 am

sandyloo

good idea - it works

3:43 am

sandyloo

get take aways

3:44 am

sandyloo

I feel like take away tonight in fact! The TOE does my head in

3:44 am

mrpresident

i won't be working through xmas to end of january, so have time i guess.

Good morning everyone.

sandyloo

that

3:45 am

elder

A hick up Sandy:)

3:45 am

mrpresident

sandy broke the chat LOL

3:45 am

sandyloo

how odd and gm elder, nice to see you

3:46 am

sandyloo

who knows????

3:46 am

bfsog

one of my great memories of a child, we were moving from one country to another and the whole house was packed up, we were eating chips out of newspaper. all of us sitting on the floor

3:46 am

sandyloo

that sounds fun bfsog

3:47 am

mrpresident

hi sog :)

3:47 am

elder

Hello bfs.

3:48 am

bfsog

hey everyone

3:49 am

sandyloo

surely there can't be 6 words from that top n

3:51 am

bfsog

according to me there are 2

3:51 am

elder

bfs. :)

3:51 am

sandyloo

on the grid it says that i have 1 out of 6

3:51 am

Haz1558

Think negative prefix for some of them, sandy. Good morning/evening by the way.

3:51 am

sandyloo

hi haz

3:51 am

elder

hello Haz.

3:51 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone

3:52 am

sandyloo

hi lynxx

3:52 am

Haz1558

Hello there!

3:52 am

elder

hello Lynxx.

3:53 am

lynxxx

how is Spangle this morning Haz

3:53 am

sandyloo

haz , i think Spangle is a great name for a dog

3:54 am

Haz1558

She's a lot better this morning, thanks, lynxxx. Husband gave her a steroid injection last night. She's moving more freely and has lost the woebegone look.

3:54 am

Haz1558

sandy - I had the name chosen before I even had the dog!

3:56 am

sandyloo

how old is spangle

3:56 am

elder

Haz, what is wrong with spangle ?.

3:56 am

Haz1558

She'll be 8 next month.

3:56 am

sandyloo

our dogs are the same age

3:57 am

Haz1558

She wasn't herself yesterday, elder, reluctant to walk in the afternoon. Her right fore leg is painful - no idea what happened but she's under treatment from the in-house vet.

3:57 am

sandyloo

not arthritis?

3:59 am

Haz1558

No, I don't think so. She seems to have a bit of a weakness in that leg and sometimes forgets herself. Most of the time she's fine.

3:59 am

sandyloo

well you would be experts so I guess you know

4:00 am

sandyloo

we want another dog to train for agility- husband says three is enough

4:00 am

elder

Haz, you know, if they are reluctant to go out something is wrong. She has the best that's on offer in the Vet world. I wish her a speedy recovery. I am sure it will not be long before she is snuffling around in all the familiar places.

4:00 am

Haz1558

She may well develop arthritis as she gets older, in which case she'd be on permanent drugs to keep pain at bay.

4:01 am

Haz1558

It was quite funny yesterday afternoon. She staged a sit-down strike so often that I eventually got the message.

4:02 am

Haz1558

If she'd been a Cavalier (not noted for their powers of pain endurance) she'd have been yelling her head off.

4:03 am

elder

Bless her. yes, springers are soft in more ways than one , but they will keep going , to get that daily fix of smells and snuffling around.

4:04 am

Haz1558

I know, they're their own worst enemies sometimes.

4:04 am

elder

Absolutely.

4:05 am

elder

Similar, sometimes to the human form.

4:06 am

elder

' male human form '

4:06 am

Haz1558

Don't bother the doctor, he has better things to do?

4:07 am

elder

lol.

4:08 am

Haz1558

I can't talk, I tend not to rush to the doctor either.

4:09 am

Haz1558

My elder daughter held the family record, though, for non-doctor appearances. She hadn't seen the doctor from the age of 11 until 24!

4:09 am

Haz1558

13 years of not bothering the doctor. He made the joke that he thought she must be dead.

4:10 am

elder

With the exception of the back, I am usually reluctant to go as it seems, the older one gets appointments lead to others ..on and on.

4:11 am

Haz1558

Oh, I know. My mother was a very reluctant doctor attender as well, but she had to attend more often as she got older.

4:11 am

elder

lol.

4:12 am

elder

The other worry is to have the title of the heart sink patient, you know those people who are forever at the doctors..

4:13 am

elder

or dragging their children, when a few days in bed/sofa with the usual remedies will sort it out.

4:14 am

Haz1558

The regulars - I'm sure there are all sorts of names for them. I know what you mean - I kind of expect to get better on my own but have had to learn a coupe of times that being pig-headed doesn't necessarily lead to cure.

4:14 am

elder

True, necessity is a must sometimes.

4:15 am

Haz1558

I had a particularly bad sinusitis one Christmas and only made it to the doctors when husband threatened to cancel Christmas altother unless I went.

4:15 am

Haz1558

He was interested to see that the antibiotic I was given was the one used for calves with pneumonia. He had great faith that I would get better after that.

4:15 am

Haz1558

*altogether

4:16 am

elder

He was right then. Sinus trouble/ infection is agony. Only had it once that was enough.

4:17 am

elder

lol.. nothing less would be expected.

4:17 am

Haz1558

It was awful. I completely lost my sense of smell for about a week. Christmas cooking smells completely passed me by. My fear was that it would be permanent, but it came back eventually, thank goodness. Everything tastes of cardboard.

4:18 am

elder

It is horrid.

4:18 am

elder

and who wants to eat cardboard.:)

4:19 am

Haz1558

Well, exactly. I have a friend who has no sense of smell and I maintain that is one reason for her staying so slim - she gets little enjoyment from food.

4:20 am

Haz1558

Maybe that should be the new diet trend. Use a clothes peg to block your nose while eating.

4:20 am

elder

You may have hit on the perfect slimming device, there Haz. Could be worth millions.

4:21 am

Haz1558

I think so. You'd need different coloured ones to match outfits, wouldn't you?

4:21 am

Haz1558

And diamond encrusted ones for the rich and empty-headed.

4:21 am

elder

Drug free, cheap , has to be a winner and you be colour coordinated.

4:22 am

Haz1558

I'm ringing the patents office.

4:22 am

elder

lol. get in quick, but I will be requesting a slice of the profits.

4:23 am

Haz1558

For collaboration?

4:23 am

elder

I can see you, on the morning shows and cat walks doing the big sell.

4:23 am

elder

yes.

4:24 am

Haz1558

Is it intellectual rights or something that I need to preserve?

4:25 am

Haz1558

I need to get my terms right so that the patents office will know I'm serious. They probably get all kinds of hoaxes. They mustn't think 'Here's a nutter with a crazy idea of how to use clothes-pegs'.

4:25 am

elder

Dignity, while all the followers are wearing their latest, fashion items.

4:26 am

elder

Good grief , how terrible that would be, to think yours was not a serious proposition.

4:27 am

Haz1558

They probably laughed at all the great inventors.

4:27 am

elder

Without doubt.

4:28 am

Haz1558

I'll need to incorporate something new in the design, otherwise people could just use their own clothes pegs. Would that be a weakness in the plan?

4:29 am

elder

Bra's, stocking and suspender belts. Actually thinking about it they are a means to legal torture.

4:29 am

Haz1558

Have you noticed that nobody else is chatting? And do you have men in white coats getting out of an ambulance outside your house?

4:30 am

elder

No, because you would patient the idea and the various styles not the actual pegs.

4:30 am

elder

They have been and gone.

4:30 am

Haz1558

Did you hide under the desk? I've found that the best way.

4:31 am

elder

Best concentrate on the grid for a while. Totally lost track I where I was.

4:32 am

elder

I just stay in bed, as without the police there they cannot barge their way in, under the Mental Health Act.

4:32 am

Haz1558

Well, I'm at a nice round number myself, so maybe I should take a break and come back to it as well. See you later!

4:32 am

redturtlehead

Good Morning Elder and Haz, a grid with a few more words today!

4:33 am

Haz1558

That's good to know, elder. Staying in bed sounds like the way forward.

4:33 am

lynxxx

bye Haz

4:33 am

lynxxx

Hi Red

4:33 am

elder

Haz, careful under desks and cupboards is the first place they look.

4:33 am

Good morning red, I'm just on my way out. Quite a nice grid so far.

4:33 am

elder

Bye Haz. later.

4:33 am

redturtlehead

4:37 am

4:38 am

4:38 am

elder

Back to the grid.

4:38 am

redturtlehead

It is still Kona Blend. Pours cup and passes try with a variety of sweeteners and creamers.

5:47 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Nope, the the two ef's, Lori

5:47 am

5:47 am

LoriP

Dang. Thanks Lorrie, was hoping for more than that 6/7 combo ***sigh***

5:48 am

elder

5:49 am

LoriP

7 e's, how hard can it be, right? Ack

5:49 am

elder

Sprite, I must try and remember the genot word, to use when needed.

5:49 am

sprite

well, to be honest, Lori, they ARE vowel words. So rather hard, actually.

5:49 am

sprite

very good word, elder :)

5:49 am

elder

Ummm...

5:52 am

LoriP

erecoid looks like a word, yet it's rejected. Go figure

5:53 am

LoriP

Oooh, thanks Haz, tht be my other missing e. Wheeeeee!

Hi briefly! Sprite, fingers crossed-- I just applied for a job aan de balie bij het sociale dienst!

5:55 am

LoriP

I only have 1 i. Bet they're 7 in words which I hate almost as much as re words

5:56 am

sprite

yay MonkeyG! That would be so great. Definitely keeping fingers crossed for you. And they should take you, they'd be lucky to get you.

5:56 am

Hello Monkey.

I have 4 so far, Lori

5:57 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks! We'll see... they require a HAVO/MBO... I'll have that MBO in February and I am qualified...

Haz1558

Lori - think cuts and what you put on them. Apart from covering them with motherly kisses of course.

5:57 am

LoriP

Yuk. Oh, and g'd morning Haz, MG. ***wonders what Haz is patenting this time***

5:57 am

5:58 am

LoriP

Oops! Had the bottom i done. the middle i, only has one lonely little word.

5:58 am

Haz1558

It's going to be a goldmine. Elder helped me to think it through. A device (like a clothes peg) to block the nose, reduce taste, reduce food enjoyment - massive weight loss.

5:58 am

elder

A brilliant device for weight loss.

5:58 am

MonkeyGames

They'll let all the applicants know "within two weeks" whether they get interviewed or not.

5:59 am

LoriP

Wow, the wheels of creativity never stop turning do they Haz...

5:59 am

Haz1558

My only concern is that those people who have got plastic noses already might break them off if the clothes peg is too tight.

5:59 am

elder

.. designer and coordinated colours.

5:59 am

sprite

very good, MonkeyG. Exciting times.

5:59 am

Haz1558

I wouldn't recommend the device to either Michael Jackson or Joan Rivers.

6:00 am

elder

:: lol.

6:01 am

elder

The pegs could also be placed on other parts of the anatomy..... and block the nose with gauze or something similar.

6:02 am

elder

Monkey,all the best on the job application/ interview.

6:02 am

Haz1558

You mean, render the user so helpless with pain that food is the last thing on their mind?

6:02 am

MonkeyGames

lThank you!

6:02 am

I have never worked legally in the Netherlands and am about to get a Bachelor's in this kind of social work. I need a starter job. Also this one is 27 hours. I don't want to leap right in at 40, for Walter's sake.

herinfernallady

HI

6:06 am

Scrabbler

I spent the afternoon and dinner with them yesterday. they are all doing well, with no tears or apparent anguish, unlike me who painfully struggled with Mary's absence, especially with seeing evidence of her life all over the home. The kids and I had fun.

6:06 am

elder

Monkey, that seems interesting and you will meet people of varying needs.

6:06 am

sprite

he should, I love that chair. Festive!

6:07 am

Haz1558

She's much better today, thanks. Steroid injection and a night in a cold kennel has brought her to her senses.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Oh, ear, what happened to Spangle?

6:07 am

Atalante

yay! good! what was the diagnosis? overbouncing?

6:07 am

MonkeyGames

Exactly, Elder. I want a varied-task job with lots of interesting people, if I have to take a cruddy entry level civil servant job, which for now I do.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

I mean, oh ,dear, although it could involve her ear.

6:09 am

elder

Monkey, if you ever get desperate for a job, England always needs Social workers , particularly in child care field. You could commute. :)

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Hey, I just noticed the Qu tile, hiding in that corner.

6:09 am

Haz1558

Possibly overbouncing but we'll keep an eye on it. She's much happier in herself. Took her gruel with relish this morning.

good morning everyone - reading back in chat, sending waves of wishes to the healing-powers-that-be to everyone out there who needs them, (and hoping some bounce back here for hubby)

6:39 am

bichon

That's what I'm afraid of. He was questioning whether he should even go through it, but the Oncologist made it seem like a breeze

6:40 am

herinfernallady

HI JBV hugs

6:40 am

crosshair

oh he must go through with it

6:40 am

crosshair

the alternative is worse

6:41 am

I have a neighbor with spinal cancer who was given a grim prognosis, but he went through chemo and the tumor totally disappeared.

6:41 am

crosshair

6:43 am

Yes, I am and to make things worse, hubby has had persistent diarrhea since July.

6:45 am

bichon

My mom is a tough cookie. She survived breast cancer twice and now lung cancer. She's never smoked, but she was exposed to passive smoke.

6:46 am

Atalante

its sooo sad when someone who doesnn't smoke gets lung cancer

6:48 am

bichon

It's so strange, because she hasn't been exposed to smake for decades.

herinfernallady

Eva phawwww on the pirate booty photos

7:52 am

EvaNadine

much better this morning -- believe it or not, id actually forgotten that our roommate is a doctor!
it was itching like HECK last night so i asked him if he had any thoughts...he looked at it, said it didnt look infections + recommended i get some hydrocortizone + some Aveeno lotion...
i got both, slathered them on + it hasnt been itching since!

7:52 am

EvaNadine

heh, yes, it was a fun shoot. :)

7:53 am

herinfernallady

Eva what did you do ?

7:53 am

Anniebrook

hydrocortizone usually always works...glad to hear the itch is gone

7:53 am

EvaNadine

to my leg?
did nothing, it was just VERY dry + itchy + was driving me CRAZY...

7:53 am

Atalante

hydrocortisone is the best thing ever

7:54 am

EvaNadine

just gotta keep using it so it doesnt come back :)

7:54 am

Anniebrook

Ata..how is your sister?

7:54 am

Atalante

7:55 am

herinfernallady

Wow eva, did you eat something different or use a different laundry powder?

7:56 am

EvaNadine

herin -- havent done anything different...its happened once or twice before, but never to this extent -- winter itch. the air gets cold + dry and skin goes haywire...

7:56 am

Anniebrook

sounds like eczema

7:57 am

Atalante

bathe in oatmeal stuff, eva

7:57 am

EvaNadine

Dr Roommate didnt think it was eczema...just normal dry skin to the "nth" degree

7:57 am

EvaNadine

Ata -- the Aveeno lotion is made from oatmeal :)

7:57 am

Atalante

9:02 am

Haz1558

Is sheepskin a reference to parchment? Academic hoods here are trimmed with fur sometimes and I was wondering if it was to do with that.

9:04 am

crosshair

crossy is now lost with this clue 0_o

9:05 am

Anniebrook

Haz...sheepskin refers to a diploma as far as I know..but it must have an archaic meaning

9:05 am

EvaNadine

"Original diplomas were made of sheepskin. Diplomas were made from paper-thin sheepskin, hand-written, rolled and tied with a ribbon until 100 years ago. A lot of documents were done on animal skins because paper-making was difficult. They changed to parchment, which was more practical, when the paper making techniques improved. It wasn't until the turn of this century that diplomas stopped being rolled-up, but given out in leather binders. Rumor is because rolled-up diplomas were hard to frame."

9:05 am

PastorJ

if you are taking classes that won't get you a sheepskin, you are in a no9 program

9:06 am

crosshair

mm since i last peeped my head in a classroom around 1979..this may not help

9:06 am

Haz1558

So, that's my fact learned for today. Thank you for the explanation.

10:03 am

crosshair

cough..yes..back to grid...

But anyone with legs up to her chin would never have room for any of the other bits men seem to enjoy, so perhaps it's just as well.

12:09 pm

EvaNadine

well, today...

12:10 pm

EvaNadine

im looking at a little hand-made jewelry website + they have a necklace with the EXACT same little owl on it!
AND the website says they do custom work too...

so i sent them a message with the flickr picture + asked if they could turn the necklace into those earrings + how much would it cost.

12:10 pm

EvaNadine

she said theyd do it + its only $12 + shipping!

12:10 pm

so you hope you don't have to go to your re7 and tell them about your no9?

So it goes... I've been stuck at 98 words to go for HOURS.... 'course, I have a four year old and am just atrting to recover from the 1st 14 months, dueing which he actually did not sleep...

its romantic, but bloody expensive!

12:34 pm

flosey

12:34 pm

joshuavorbis

i wanna take the orient express, the transcanadian railway, and the transsiberian express

12:35 pm

MonkeyGames

Kje must have won the virtual lottery so I think she can virtually afford the virtual travels...

12:35 pm

MonkeyGames

Do you want to ride the trans-Appalaichian trail?

12:35 pm

hurshy

if you take the orient express make sure your fellow passengers are not all former acquaintances who now hate you...

12:35 pm

kje

TY josh... just googled that, you are right...

12:36 pm

joshuavorbis

i've been all around the appalachian trail over the years, since i live not too far from it

12:36 pm

damn

12:36 pm

MonkeyGames

Is that likely? Oh dear...

12:36 pm

Aha!

12:36 pm

hubby is pressing apples so I'm in and out - I bottle the juice

12:36 pm

I've done parts of the trail while living up north, but not the whole thing

12:37 pm

kje

the transiberian would be an experience

12:37 pm

flosey

your travels sound amazing kj

12:37 pm

hurshy

i lived right next to the appalachian trail for 12 years myself - i always wondered at the people who walked the whole thing... why, i wondered to myself, why?

12:37 pm

Atalante

I'd love to go on the transSiberian

12:37 pm

joshuavorbis

i will probably do the transsiberian in the next 2-3 years or so, it's long been a goal of mine

12:37 pm

12:39 pm

MonkeyGames

I knew some people who rode the whole thing. There was this really ugly, really uncomfortable horse I was riding regularly when I worked at a stable. Super smart horse, extremely sure footed, but couldn't jump high and was ugly with very high withers. These folks talked to me for an hour longer than the owner before buying him to do the trail; I still herad from them every now an dthen for years. Great life that horse had after the stable sold him.

12:39 pm

could I please have a clue for af6

12:39 pm

joshuavorbis

which nation do you think has the coolest looking flag?

12:39 pm

rururocks

oh.. sorry...

12:39 pm

joshuavorbis

i've always thought iran's was by far the most interesting flag

12:39 pm

MonkeyGames

Af6 have I not.

12:39 pm

hurshy

some o' them caribbean ones are interesting

12:40 pm

joshuavorbis

flosey - think about what happens when you park where you aren't supposed to

12:40 pm

joshuavorbis

and past tense

12:40 pm

flosey

oh thanks josh, will work on that

12:40 pm

rururocks

what does Iran look like? beheading someone?

12:40 pm

kje

it implies that things are said out of meanness which is not the case, ruru...

12:41 pm

joshuavorbis

nyuk nyuk, ruru

12:41 pm

MonkeyGames

I know several people from there and if it were not for the totalitarian regime it'd be a great place. Like so many places. Sigh.

i always thought the istanbul song was originally by they might be giants, but i've since found several versions from the 40's and 50's

that's true...I feel better now..

12:43 pm

oh yes, it is def an old song

12:44 pm

rururocks

Not too fond of Iran by the way.. and I don't really care for their idea of fashion for women either.

12:44 pm

MonkeyGames

Is that you in the pic, ruru? I always secretly hoped you really WERE an owl... The internet is so cool...

12:44 pm

i'm going to iran next year, hopefully

I'd love to go to Iran and Iraq

12:45 pm

EvaNadine

do you guys pronounce it eye-ran or eee-ron ?

12:45 pm

kje

i envy you in some ways, josh... many of those places are hard for a woman to travel to ... especially alone

12:45 pm

MonkeyGames

Well, just like Mexico as I was growing up, a sharp line needs to be drawn between the public face and policies of the plavce and The People. I sure wouldnt wanyt to live there and I sure disapprove of a lot of what goes on... but the People, at base, are just lovely. And MAN is the food good!

12:46 pm

Atalante

I as in itch - ran. V short I

12:46 pm

rururocks

keep your head about you there josh..

12:46 pm

joshuavorbis

kje - my friend actually is waiting for me to be able to go with her and be her "chaperone" of sorts even though she is 10+ years older than me

12:46 pm

joshuavorbis

she will have to wear the veil as well, which irks her somewhat, because she has lived in arab countries for 20+ years and always resisted doing that

12:47 pm

kje

but would like to go to asia next i think... have always wanted to go to thailand and haven't made it yet

12:47 pm

MonkeyGames

A friend of mione goes twice a year to visit her husband's family. DEEPLY steeped in culture and just a fabulous place, but SOOO sadly under the thumb of so much oppression...

12:47 pm

joshuavorbis

ruru, i think you're being a bit too paranoid

12:47 pm

hurshy

ee-ron is how christiane amanpour says it should be pronounced so i try to go with that.

12:48 pm

rururocks

ummm Josh.. do you ever read the papers..?

12:48 pm

MonkeyGames

Kje, do check out "Tales of a Female Nomad". I was deeply dubious at first when my mom sent it, but it really is an excellent book. With LOTS about traveling in Thailand.

12:48 pm

kje

thanks mg

12:48 pm

MonkeyGames

And if you like I can ask Nok at work where you could go that has amenities but is not tourist-choked.

12:48 pm

joshuavorbis

i read them all the time - have you done much traveling outside of english-speaking countries?

12:49 pm

kje

who me?

12:49 pm

kje

all over

12:49 pm

Atalante

I think you're both right. I'd feel fine travelling around most areas of Iran, *but* any white people are targets, whether we like it or not

12:49 pm

MonkeyGames

My friend of course wears the veil, but she has blue eyes, which always starts a conversation. Luckily she does speak the language.

12:49 pm

hurshy

you have a pacion for travelling

12:50 pm

kje

flos... what is the af6

12:50 pm

joshuavorbis

i think if you are a seasoned traveler outside of europe or north america, you probably have enough savvy to stay out of places you shouldn't be in

12:50 pm

MonkeyGames

My sister regularly visits her family. She's my half sister; she has family in Palestine. She's been all over there and Jordan getting to know the cousins.

12:51 pm

yes. but there are still more random hits. like Gayle Williams the other day

I would think with all the tensions between the USA and Iran that this would be a pretty poor time to travel in iran..

12:53 pm

rururocks

I think I would rather swim in the Great Barrier Re4 with lamp chops strpped to me than go to Iran..

12:53 pm

rururocks

..but that is just me...

12:53 pm

Atalante

lamp chops? *grin*

12:53 pm

joshuavorbis

most of the tension is on the US side of that equation

12:54 pm

rururocks

exactly...

12:54 pm

Atalante

not strictly true

12:54 pm

MonkeyGames

You would think.... But to many Americans' surprise, that is actually a bigger deal there than in the "bad" countries. I have some Iraqui friends who wouldn't dream of making a big deal of anything, and an Afghani guy said last week he really doesn't know what all the hype is about, people there have it hard and bad and have very little time to think beyond the boprders or immediate events.

12:55 pm

rururocks

Tell that to all the newpaper reporters who have been beheaded..

12:55 pm

joshuavorbis

i also speak fluent french as does my friend - i have pretended to be quebecois or french before, and i'll do it again

12:55 pm

MonkeyGames

I mean, don't go wandering down alleys or spouting anti-local politics, but really, the Big Deal tends to be US propoganda. At least according top people who live in these places or travel there regularly.

12:55 pm

kje

i don't agree with that.... he is pretty inflammatory re: his feelings of the US (and israel), so don't think our side is the only one throwing gas on the fire

12:55 pm

MonkeyGames

I have a Dutch passport. And no other, because they don't allow dual here.

12:55 pm

rururocks

...godspeed josh.. just be careful..

12:55 pm

MonkeyGames

He who?

12:56 pm

MonkeyGames

Sure there are inflammatories everywhere. Once again, I am discussing the common people on the street and daily life.

12:56 pm

joshuavorbis

just keep in mind ruru that regular people are regular people most anywhere you go - they don't care where you're from if you're respectful and friendly

12:56 pm

MonkeyGames

That's it, Josh, exactly.

12:57 pm

joshuavorbis

there aren't unmarked vans on every corner waiting to whisk you off to a cave to be beheaded

12:57 pm

kje

shoot, i knew i'd have to spell that... ahmadinejad

12:57 pm

Atalante

but there are still some - a small amount - who will shoot first

12:57 pm

rururocks

,,,every other corner is another matter.

12:57 pm

joshuavorbis

i can't tell if you're trying to make a joke or not

12:58 pm

joshuavorbis

because if you're not, then you probably don't know iran very well at all

12:58 pm

MonkeyGames

Ohhh. Well, yes, politicians and warmongers are the same everywhere. They're not the people running your hotel or selling you veggies in the market. Just, like I said, in some places please do stick to the tourist approved areas.

12:58 pm

rururocks

...never planning to...

12:58 pm

specially in, say, Columbia. My friend the ornithologist studying our macaws here was held by the Farq (Farc?) for several months a couple of years ago.

12:58 pm

clue for no 9 please

12:59 pm

Erda

how's about a clue for no9 ???

12:59 pm

rururocks

I prefer France and Italy and Spain and Portugal..I am really interested in New Zealand and Japan...not really in the middle east.. too violent for my taste

12:59 pm

joshuavorbis

i guess that tells me what i need to know, ruru - we don't need to go a lot farther in this discussion, then

12:59 pm

MonkeyGames

No9: Three letters meaning it isn't. plus what you get if you graduate college.

12:59 pm

cybernan

not politically correct, seain

3:48 pm

cybernan

I haven't been getting any videos lately -- is it just me?

3:48 pm

dcseain

not an excuse for it not to be in the dictionary, and it has many uses beyond the derogatory one.

3:48 pm

dcseain

not least historically.

3:48 pm

BerniceQ

DC, it's a proper noun. it's capitalized.

3:48 pm

dcseain

really ? how odd.

3:49 pm

danf63

not just you nan...me either

3:49 pm

dcseain

that does not match what i learned. only proper when referring to a group of people.

3:49 pm

3:50 pm

cybernan

3:54 pm

dcseain

oh, nice, kje, do enjoy

3:54 pm

kje

why is he in jeopardy of failing... thought he was a smart kid... is he bored/

3:54 pm

dcseain

you should let Dr God know that Austria does not work for flag

3:55 pm

dcseain

3:55 pm

kje

there are lots that don't dc... no swiss flag either, no monaco ...

3:56 pm

dcseain

3:56 pm

kje

hmm, ok

3:56 pm

danf63

he is smart, just too busy talking cause 14 y/o know everything! he is in upeer level classes, so boredom isn't likely

3:56 pm

dcseain

i was bored silly in my english and history classes at a magnet school

3:57 pm

dcseain

to point i failed do to refusing to do homework because it served no purpose to further my learning

3:57 pm

danf63

darth has the same problem I did in school...he doesn't "apply" himself, but they don't have tutors for that.

3:57 pm

kje

aaahhhh, so doesn't need a tutor then... where are your boots dan... LOL

3:57 pm

dcseain

when i did not apply, it was cause i was not challenged in school, and there was no point in doing so

3:58 pm

danf63

I had a 4.3 GPA in high school, and never opened a book for the last 3 years. I just had to learn to turn in homework, and stay awake long enough to pass tests

3:58 pm

danf63

the boots don't have the same affect on him as you kje :-)

3:58 pm

kje

too bad, dan... you should have been elsewhere then...

so I started out the day in pain, as I have for last several weeks

7:58 pm

nrkii

it's getting worse, and physical therapy not helping

7:59 pm

redturtlehead

Ooooh horrible nrkii, will you need surgery> I sounds like you may.

7:59 pm

Scrabbler

:-( Oh, no, nrk!!

7:59 pm

LadyNatts

oh dear, nrkii

7:59 pm

pam

OW, nrrkii!

7:59 pm

nrkii

but worse than that, I ended my work day by being on a call where the global ceo of my company announced that my boss has "resigned" and one of my close coworkers has been let go

7:59 pm

kje

why are you falling

7:59 pm

rururocks

bulging discs can calm down ...slowly

7:59 pm

lil*monkey

nrkii, i'm so sorry :( I'm a home health phys therapist so i think i know your pain

7:59 pm

redturtlehead

mybe you need the cortisone shot, not me, though mine has definitely not worked.

7:59 pm

nrkii

I'll probably need surgery on the shoulder

8:00 pm

nrkii

the disc is the main source of pain right now

8:00 pm

rururocks

ouch I bet...

8:00 pm

redturtlehead

Ooooh horrible nrkii, work stuff can only be making the neck etc worse.

8:00 pm

rururocks

disc pain is horrible and very painful

8:00 pm

kje

you worried about your jon nrkii?

8:00 pm

nrkii

I fall because I'm genetically predisposed to be a klutz

8:00 pm

pam

OH, nrkii... what a bad, bad day!

8:00 pm

nrkii

my mother falls a lot too

8:00 pm

pam

yes, are you worried about your job?

8:00 pm

nrkii

it's not a balance thing.. it's just that we don't pay enough attention

8:00 pm

pam

I fall all of the time--bad depth perception...

8:00 pm

Scrabbler

My lumbar disc healed quickly---well, in 8 wks for me, nrk. I am back playing tennis.

8:01 pm

mkg

hi all. need clues.

8:01 pm

Pinikula

sorry to hear, nrkii...hope it gets better and your company doesn't feel too much stress as the result of the changes

8:01 pm

nrkii

kje, I was worried about my job when I heard my boss "resigned"

8:01 pm

mkg

co 5s the first two please?

8:01 pm

rururocks

I fall alot .. but mostly after drinking...

8:01 pm

lil*monkey

Scrabs! Tha's fantastic

8:01 pm

Nef

nrkii, are you on tractioon? I had bulging discs years ago and between traction and TENS unit, I never needed surgery

8:01 pm

nrkii

he's the best boss I've ever had

8:01 pm

nrkii

I'm so sad

8:01 pm

Scrabbler

I am a klutz too--oblivious to my body in space.

8:01 pm

LeslieAnn

i'm a klutz with bad depth perception. i should just remain seated most of the time.

8:01 pm

pam

Oh, that sucks, nrkii

8:01 pm

Scrabbler

So many changes, nrk.

8:01 pm

lil*monkey

I'm a fan of manual traction, Nef

8:01 pm

kje

interesting... your docs need to find out why you are falling and try to correct if possible... falling as you get older is not good....

8:02 pm

lil*monkey

or gravity-assisted traction (i.e., lying on a slant board)

8:02 pm

nrkii

I have bad depth perception too, but mostly it's just that I'm oblivious... I tend to go "Ooh, pretty!" as I walk places, and that always gets me in trouble

8:02 pm

rururocks

have you experienced vertigo?

8:02 pm

pam

you got that right, kje! not good at all!

8:02 pm

nrkii

the good news is my mother has VERY GOOD bones (she falls a lot and never breaks anything) so hopefully I got her genes there as well

8:02 pm

nrkii

no vertigo

8:02 pm

pam

LOL, nrkii, me, too! And, I have middle ear issues....

8:02 pm

rururocks

**promises not to fall tonight **

8:02 pm

Scrabbler

I also like to dive for shots when playing tennis--I play the net like a goaltender--and I need to remember that I am too old for that now.

8:02 pm

Nef

lil, I had supine cervical traction that I'd do at home

8:02 pm

lil*monkey

nrkii any visual problems or numbness in your extremities?

8:03 pm

Pinikula

co6/39?

8:03 pm

pam

LOL, scrabs....

8:03 pm

Scrabbler

Let's start wearing protective gear--knee pads, elbow pads, helmet, neck brace...

8:03 pm

lil*monkey

Nef, lying on your back or sitting in a chair?

8:03 pm

rururocks

Have you considered padding your floors around the house?

8:03 pm

lil*monkey

oh i'm sorry, just saw you said "supine" ... .OK that's good :)

8:03 pm

nrkii

monkey, no numbness (except from Reynaud's when it's cold) but vision problems possible I suppose as you might not realize what you're missing... nothing I'm aware of

8:04 pm

nrkii

rururocks, and wearing a helmet, yes

8:04 pm

lil*monkey

nrkii, btw, I have Reynaud's also

8:04 pm

Scrabbler

a hairdo, pini

8:04 pm

rururocks

lol

8:04 pm

LeslieAnn

it's a trick, he's trying to lure you into a room with padded walls

8:04 pm

nrkii

doesn't it stink? anything under 50 degrees and I'm a mess

8:04 pm

LadyNatts

8:05 pm

8:05 pm

LadyNatts

person who does the co4, pink

8:05 pm

Nef

Lady, you go to a high school Re 7/32

8:05 pm

Scrabbler

double the middle consonant and add a vowel--think frenchy spelling

8:05 pm

rururocks

like a highschool get together lady

8:05 pm

nrkii

pini, I had trouble with that one too... double the ending cons and add vowel

8:05 pm

LadyNatts

co 5/14 = co + lion's home

8:11 pm

if it isn't sterile i wouldn't.... if it has been itching, you have been scratching... and if you have been scratching, it is excoriated ... so can get an infection...

8:11 pm

8:11 pm

LeslieAnn
