ok - just couldn't resist that one

9:53 am

hokie carla

yeah, I've got a lot of words to find

9:53 am

cybernan

although I do think shooting at the guy was a bit extreme

9:53 am

Shirlockc

violence is not the answer

9:54 am

cybernan

agreed, shirl

9:58 am

Shirlockc

violence should not be the answer -- not that i have any answers

10:01 am

MollyL

en7/8

10:04 am

cybernan

no way - there should be a double consonant at the end of that!

10:04 am

cybernan

somebody should check that entire dictionary for spelling errors

10:04 am

penquis

ty, Molly and nan....that was enough for me....

10:04 am

MollyL

Brit spelling

10:05 am

cybernan

hokie carla

same people that do instal and enrol

10:06 am

MollyL

Well then take it up with Google because that is what it says

10:09 am

mael

but then you'd think the root word without the double consonant would be a word too! but nope

10:10 am

cybernan

enrol I have seen - quite common - but not instal

10:11 am

hokie carla

the only place I've seen any of those 3 is here

10:11 am

penquis

well dictionary.com does accept it as an att spelling....

10:11 am

cybernan

the double consonant changes the vowel sound to what it is -- otherwise it would be a short a

He’s just naturally saucy

1:09 pm

jesdraggon

it's 88 here now, at 11am. supposed to hit 99. and smokey. I'm spending as much time as possible in the basement!

1:09 pm

MollyL

It's like that old line, I haven't had a drop. A pint maybe but not a drop.

1:09 pm

jesdraggon

sure would be nice if we could magically divert some of the excess rain from flood areas

1:10 pm

MollyL

Mother Nature has not been good at sharing this summer.

1:10 pm

cybernan

yes -- just dump it all in the BC mountains

1:10 pm

cybernan

a year without forest fires would be lovely

1:11 pm

jesdraggon

oh, right, you're in BC - it's YOUR smoke I'm breathing :P

1:13 pm

MollyL

So the Scooby Gang is in Scotland, my sister is in Ireland, anyone going to Wales or England?

1:14 pm

cybernan

I think what fires we have right now are a lot further north than where I am

1:15 pm

jesdraggon

well, while i'd like them to go out immediately, in the meantime i hope they stay further north than both of us :)

1:15 pm

cybernan

agreed

1:18 pm

1:24 pm

cybernan

1:25 pm

jesdraggon

as it should be :)

1:26 pm

cybernan

she has a room with a window perch that is where she stays at night or when I'm out -- the rest of the time she spends with me in the family room where she has a window bench to stretch out on

1:27 pm

jesdraggon
