Why doesn't it let you put an r on the end of the first ca5/12 (the boat one)? It's a legitimate word

Ouch! Gas is just under $1.70/litre this morning!!! Glad I no longer commute.

7:10 am

crosshair

About $6.80/gallon for my American friends.

7:13 am

Flask1

yes...it was even being discussed in here this morning...someone deciding whether to heat the house or have hot water.....its shocking!!

7:15 am

crosshair

That is one saving grace here in that much of our electricity is from hydoelectric or nuclear facilities. However, all food gets delivered by truck and diesel is $2.20/litre today. :(

7:18 am

crosshair

Back when I was running my service station (1994-2007) it would cost me $540 to have one load of gasoline delivered from Sarnia to Collingwood. It is amost three times that cost now. (Just one of many things that affect the price you pay at the pump.)

7:19 am

Flask1

sadly the p.o.t.u.s. is causing misery everywhere....and why??? Just because he can!!!

7:20 am

crosshair

The Epstein Smokescreen War.

7:21 am

kc8501

because he's an idiot that's being manipulated left and right and our systems that provide control have been hijacked.

7:21 am

crosshair

Basucally it is another thing he did not think through or consult with other nations beforehand.

7:23 am

Flask1

iron

7:23 am

Flask1

sorry

7:23 am

crosshair

He abused other countries for a year then says "oh no, I did not realize that vital shipping would grind to a halt, please help." Not bloody likely.

7:25 am

crosshair

Price gets high enough, Canada will dimply keep all of our own oil any hydro. This iscwhy Carney is doing a full review on energy exports ascwe speak.

7:25 am

crosshair

Damn typos

7:25 am

Flask1

Oh he's a horrible human being!

7:30 am

crosshair

Also why we are building "pocket" reactors. Small units capable of powering specific regions without the need of being connected to the main grid. In the future large cities can be easily powered independantly of each other. Plus we have a market for them with other like-minded free trade countries.

7:38 am

crosshair

Trump may be an idiot, but he has unwittingly become a catalyst allowing us to acheive a great many things wevpreviously would have thought impossible. Our prime minster has basically been living on a plane this last year working out trade deals with like-minded countries. We have set up new coastal shipping depots, rerouted pipelines and rail, elimiated inter-provincial trade barriers. So many new and exciting things--initiated by a buffon who has no idea whatsoever.

7:39 am

crosshair

Well, enough of that. Back to Babble.

Hint for the re6/30?

i cant help but wonder if our country will ever be able to repair bonds with other countries after this evil man is out of office.
lord knows we have a lot of reconciliation to do, both within and without.

7:44 am

mkg

ty. great clue cross. got the an 6 and 8.

7:44 am

crosshair

Or was it feet? Lol

7:44 am

mkg

any clues for the seven? ty.

7:44 am

crosshair

It will take decades, Nadine. :(

7:45 am

rururocks

I've wondered that too eva.. I can't bear to witness the gigantic mess he's made and hurt so many people.

7:45 am

EvaNadine

i hate that my son will feel the ramifications if this for the rest of his life.

7:46 am

crosshair

It will take generations to undo, but there are many things that will never come back to what they were.

7:46 am

mkg

eva no he wont. atmost it will take 10 years to undo much. things move fast when we get a new president. I read biographies and look what Teddy

7:47 am

crosshair

All the trade deals we are signing, for example, are ten, twenty, thirty year deals that are binding.

7:48 am

crosshair

Mkg, there are many things that cannot be undone, sadly.

7:48 am

mkg

Teddy Roosevelt did in his 7 years as president. he created national parks, he stopped corporations from being monopolies, he established the FDA, and on and on. one man can do a lot.

7:48 am

rururocks

I'd like to point out that one woman could as well

7:48 am

mkg

you can make new trade deals! it doesnt take 25 years to do that.

7:48 am

kc8501

One president can do a lot -- when they are backed by congress and the courts. That's why so much is happening now and why so much has been hampered in the past

7:49 am

crosshair

For example, we are rerouting our rail system for east-west traffic so it no longer has to touch U.S soil.

7:49 am

mkg

yes a woman as well.

7:50 am

mkg

any clues for the 7s?

7:50 am

crosshair

We are working eith the mexican to create the "Northern Route" for shipping good directly, bypassing the U.S

7:51 am

rururocks

the cartels have been doing that for years crossy

7:51 am

crosshair

Yup, so take a page from their book for foodstuffs as well.

7:54 am

mkg

so if canada can do all that in just two years, any country can make the same changes in two years.

7:54 am

mkg

still have no sevens. hmmm

7:55 am

crosshair

We still have to stick with our new contracts, mkg. Cannot just back out of them if trump does us the favour of dying.

7:56 am

rururocks

I pray he chokes on a big mac

7:57 am

crosshair

Once the new contracts has run their course we will look at things again.

7:59 am

crosshair

Basicallyball the ither countries are waiting for the mid-terms. See what happens then.

7:59 am

rururocks

I''m guessing it's going to be a democratic wave.. it should be interesting

8:00 am

crosshair

Very interesting. Wonder if Trump eill try and close rural voting centres again, and remove voting machines?

8:00 am

crosshair

Again.

8:00 am

rururocks

he is trying that

8:01 am

rururocks

the judges won't let him

8:01 am

rururocks

he's losing state after state

8:01 am

crosshair

Good.

8:01 am

crosshair

He is a planetary cancer.

8:02 am

rururocks

or worse

8:03 am

crosshair

He is why we are currently duping all that money into far north defense, why we bought that Aussie early warning system.

8:04 am

crosshair

Sweedish jets, german subs,etc etc. Interesting times indeed.

8:05 am

rururocks

none of us blame canada for their responses to his policies and idiotic statements

8:06 am

crosshair

And we, in turn, feel horrible for our American cousins who are caught up in this insanity though no fault of their own.

8:06 am

rururocks

well.. we half deserve it .. half this country voted for him, although the numbers that regret it are growing daily

8:10 am

crosshair

It is why we are offering safe haven to those who wish to apply, doctors, nurses, first responders, scientists, those who live in states where body autonomy rights have been removed, those who have been penalized or ostracised based on how they identify as a person. The list goes on and on.

8:11 am

rururocks

yeah but not to this old fart

8:11 am

crosshair

Would even welcome you, ruru--as long as you are cool with universal healthcare. :)

8:12 am

EvaNadine

whil i believe a lot can change in a few years with the right president, i fear our country is so divdied that we will unable to agree on who is "right" -- and even if someone great steps into the role, so many people will tear them down just from being from the "wrong" side of the aisle.

and even if we can overcome that internally, in order to make these deals with other countries, they have to trust us + want to work with us -- and i think it will take some time for that to happen -- at least with the countries we would have previously considered our allies.

8:12 am

rururocks

nope.. the best deal I can get is six months a year

8:13 am

rururocks

all of this division over a narcissistic sociopath's wound of losing an election.

8:13 am

crosshair

That trust will take a long time to return.

8:13 am

rururocks

that he couldn't/wouldn't accept

8:14 am

Sugrraleona

Hi - i'm reading all of you comments here - inasmuch as I either agree or disagree (as I don't like to talk politics - because I'm not up on everything), what rights have been taken away crosshair regarding body autonomy? I get certain people have been ostracized but I'm not understanding what rights have been taken away. I try to not watch the news anymore and stay off social media, because it's hard to tell what's true anymore.

8:15 am

rururocks

a woman's right to choose to have a baby and get necessary health care for pregnancy

8:15 am

crosshair

Exactly.

8:15 am

rururocks

that's for starters

8:16 am

Sugrraleona

you're referring to abortion? I believe it's been left up to the states to decide - not the federal government. We don't have free healthcare, a woman has a right to health care for pregnancy, they just have to pay for it - the right was not taken away - I don't believe.

8:17 am

rururocks

you're wrong

8:17 am

Sugrraleona

and there are free clinics

8:17 am

Sugrraleona

explain ruru please

8:17 am

rururocks

not in florida, missouri, texas, alabama and other states it's a crime for a doctor to aid in an abortion

8:18 am

rururocks

even if they go to a state where it is legal

8:18 am

rururocks

(texas law)

8:18 am

Sugrraleona

I'm unsure about that - so if I lived in Florida and wanted an abortion - and i go to New york to have it done, that's illegal?

8:18 am

rururocks

they are unfunding free clinics and passing laws (or tryinjg to ) in dozens of states

8:19 am

crosshair

Yes. This issue exactly. A woman should have total sutonomy over her body regardless of what state she lives in.

8:19 am

rururocks

I'm not sure about that but if you lived in texas you absolutely would / could be arrested

8:19 am

Sugrraleona

That I agree 100 percent Cross

8:20 am

Sugrraleona

but I think that's my point ruru - Texas law, not Federal law

8:20 am

crosshair

But it is not so at the moment, leona

8:21 am

crosshair

As ruru outlined

8:21 am

Sugrraleona

not in all states - I live in Ny, and I would not be breaking the law if I chose to have an abortion (obviously I cna't I'm 61 )

8:22 am

rururocks

they are slowly working the mechanisms to make it illegal in as many states as possible and to make it a crime to do interstate abortions

8:22 am

Sugrraleona

I thought I read earlier that you were blaming our government to taking away the rights - but it's not the government - its the states that choose to - I don't agree with any right regrding a woman's body should be taken away by the way.

8:22 am

crosshair

That is the main issues each state treats the other like they are an island nation where laws can be crated even though they are not just.

8:22 am

rururocks

they're losing in the courts but who knows the future

8:23 am

crosshair

State, governent. It is all in the same country. A "not in my back yard" does not justify it

8:24 am

rururocks

"the government cancelled roe vs wade" which allowed freedom for women nationwide for decades. it's a person's decision not a state government's decision

8:24 am

Sugrraleona

I get it cross - but unfortnately that's the way it is -

8:24 am

Sugrraleona

- can I get help with the te7?

8:25 am

rururocks

really small

8:25 am

crosshair

And there you go. "That is just the way it is" does not help the 24 year old girls in Florida that has yo carry a rape baby to tem.

8:25 am

crosshair

14 year old

8:25 am

crosshair

Term

8:25 am

Sugrraleona

dang, I never looked in that direciton - thanks ruru

8:26 am

crosshair

Sorry. Did not mean it to get so heavy, but it is happening.

8:27 am

phaeton

help with the last te7?

8:27 am

Sugrraleona

cross, there are exceptions to this in Florida - she can have an abortion, but there are time limits (which is ridiculous)

8:28 am

Sugrraleona

cross, of course - no need to apologize

8:28 am

Sugrraleona

Im glad we can discuss things, without anyone getting nasty

8:29 am

Sugrraleona

there's so much hate these days.

8:29 am

crosshair

Or that brain dead woman whose body was used as an incubator to bring a fetus to term. Horrible stuff.

8:29 am

rururocks

there are some here who go over the edge easily, but I feel you have to hear the other side while politely disagreeing

8:29 am

crosshair

Yes, must always keep it civil.

8:29 am

Sugrraleona

exactly ruru

8:30 am

Sugrraleona

Love thy neighbor LOL

8:30 am

rururocks

sure.. but not all of them

8:30 am

rururocks

:D

8:30 am

Sugrraleona

ha ha ha -

8:31 am

crosshair

Like Robin Williams once said, it is like having a nice apartment--located above a meth lab. :)

8:31 am

Sugrraleona

ha ha

8:31 am

Wevpay you get a better prez soon.

8:31 am

We oray.

8:32 am

Sugrraleona

by the way Cross - my husband made our trip to Niagara Falls - we had a great time - I hit for$5K in the casino - only took home $3,600 american ):

8:32 am

crosshair

Nice. :)

8:32 am

crosshair

Was your first time at the falls?

8:32 am

rururocks

now gambling should be illegal

8:32 am

Sugrraleona

then we got stuck at the Buffalo airport -

8:32 am

Sugrraleona

ha ha ha ruru - ot if you win ha ha

8:32 am

Sugrraleona

not

8:33 am

Sugrraleona

My 2nd time there Cross -

8:33 am

crosshair

I have an "addictive" personality, so I avoid all casinos

8:33 am

Sugrraleona

the iceberg were awesome - most of the stuff was still closed for the winter - but our view from the Hilton was specatcular

8:33 am

rururocks

iceberg?

8:34 am

Sugrraleona

yes - I wish I could show you pictures - I guess from the mist of the Falls and the freezing weather, icebergs were formed - absolutely stunning

8:35 am

crosshair

Also why i have been sober for a year now, and quit the smokes in 2092.

8:35 am

crosshair

2002*

8:36 am

Sugrraleona

congrats Cross - I have to go, nice chatting - talk soon xox

8:36 am

crosshair

Take care, Leona. :)

8:36 am

rururocks

did you drink a lot cross?

8:37 am

crosshair

At its worst, I could drink 26 ounces of vodka every two days.

8:38 am

ivesyj

my son has been clean and sober for almost 9 years now

8:38 am

crosshair

Nice!

8:38 am

ivesyj

and congrats crossy!

8:39 am

rururocks

holy shit cross.

8:39 am

crosshair

What help me continue is seeing everything I was missing in life when I used to have my head in the bottle. All the goodbthings, the nuances of life.

8:40 am

crosshair

And my beloved appreciates it as well.

8:41 am

crosshair

Not to mention the cost of spending $35;every two days on booze.

8:42 am

ivesyj

my son realizes now what he missed. was an addict for almost 20+years.. such a great step you took crossy to be sober. it isnt easy

8:44 am

Flask1

I have nothing but best wishes for you Cross....my son was not too long addicted to pain killers, it was awful.....

8:45 am

ivesyj

i know that feeling flask1 ..seeing it and not being able to help

8:45 am

rururocks

they have to do it themselves ivesy

8:46 am

rururocks

or want to

8:46 am

Flask1

that's the worst feeling...

8:46 am

crosshair

When my better half and I quit the smokes in 2002, they cost $7.50/pack. That is $15/day we were soending. Today thise same smokes are $15/pack

8:46 am

crosshair

Spending*

8:47 am

ivesyj

yes ruru. took me awhile but i learned that the hard way

8:47 am

rururocks

yeah.. it was hard to see you tortured by his actions

8:48 am

crosshair

Yes, you have to want it. Nobody else can do it for you. Usually younhave to hit rock bottom first.

8:48 am

rururocks

or like my brother no bottom at all

8:49 am

Flask1

yes....and to me it beggars belief that people here prepared to pay almost 20 pounds for a packet of 20 ciggies...

8:49 am

rururocks

$20 bucks here too

8:49 am

crosshair

I did not do A.A because I di not want religion muddying up the process.

8:49 am

rururocks

the most filthy habit there is

8:49 am

EvaNadine

my dad was an alcoholic....he went to rehab several times + was in recovery most of my life with a few relapses. addiction is no joke and it affects everyone who loves you.

8:50 am

ivesyj

thats what my son (jason) says crossy !. never went for it. its was the VA that helped him

8:50 am

rururocks

One can do AA and blow off all the religious crap.. just attend for the personal stories etc

8:51 am

ivesyj

flask i pay $15 plus here for smokes. . unless i get them from the res then its $30 carton. not best smokes but cheaper lol

8:51 am

crosshair

You must realize that you will always be an addict, and that you do it day by day. Each day you do not drink is like collecting a pearl. One day at a time until you suddenly realize you have made a necklace, and it feels good.

8:51 am

rururocks

alcholism runs rampant in my family...and weirdly I'm in the alcohol business

8:52 am

Flask1

lets not forget the people we are discussing are never happy....so sad

8:53 am

EvaNadine

my dad was also a diagnosed bipolar manic-depressive.
there was so much happening there.

8:53 am

rururocks

gotta go.. take care all

8:53 am

crosshair

Tc

8:53 am

ivesyj

so true crossy. he calls him self an addict.doesnt hide behind it anymore. and i dont hide it either. it is what it is. .i remember the people who stood by us . and i def. remember those that didnt

8:53 am

Flask1

bye ruru

8:54 am

crosshair

It is a lifetime battle, Ivesy, and family and friend are the staff we lean on when we falter.

8:54 am

EvaNadine

addiction is a disease. we dont blame people for having cancer and we shouldnt treat those with additions any differently.

8:56 am

crosshair

Today, I can go to a party, ask the bartender for a gingerale, and be content. It took a lot to get there though.

8:56 am

ivesyj

thats so true evanadine

8:57 am

Flask1

Well done you Cross...

8:57 am

EvaNadine

mocktails have come a long way! i have a friend who runs an organization called Zero Proof Nation and its so very interesting!

8:57 am

crosshair

Well, enough of me. Think I shall try and find a few morecwords niw. :)

8:59 am

Flask1

Its a nippy one today....am struggling...lol

9:00 am

crosshair

A balmy minus 4C here today. :)

9:02 am

crosshair

I can get other people dog poop off our lawn without resorting to a jackhammer. :.

9:02 am

Flask1

We're sitting at 13c here

9:02 am

crosshair

Wow! BBQ weather!

9:03 am

BzznBea

Why do people let their dogs poop in your yard? Rather rude, I'd say.

9:03 am

Flask1

lmao....

9:03 am

crosshair

It is rude.

9:04 am

crosshair

But I have to pick all theirs up as well because our eight year old lab has a particular affinity for "chicolate brownies." :(

9:06 am

Flask1

I have never understood why dogs do that....yuk

9:12 am

I have to make sure it is all tidy before we get more snow. Once they are buried under a foot of powder, my dog is out there like a wolf on the arctic tundra sniffing out burired "treasure."

9:16 am

crosshair

For those who have read Never Cry Wolf, it is exactly like the mouse hunting scenes. :/

9:16 am

rastapopolous

great book!

9:17 am

crosshair

It is. I love reading Mowatt.

9:18 am

crosshair

You want a really good one from him? Read "Grey Seas Unde'" and "The Serpents Coil."

9:19 am

crosshair

Under*

9:19 am

rastapopolous

I'll look for them.

9:19 am

crosshair

They should be read in order

9:21 am

rastapopolous

ok. not available on

9:21 am

crosshair

The tale deals with the adventure of Canadian deep icean rescue tugs during the war years until about 1960. Mowatt gives it such life and vision that you can almost taste the salt spray on your lips as you read.

9:21 am

rastapopolous

9:21 am

Ocean

9:23 am

crosshair

Probably not, Rasta. You may have to go to the library, ir a good used book store to find them.

9:23 am

rastapopolous

available as real books, though.

9:23 am

crosshair

Well worth buying.

9:24 am

Had to find in digital format as well.

9:25 am

crosshair

I have them in my bookcase in softcover, but lately the six point type defeats me. :/

9:30 am

crosshair

I actually now do 90% of my reading using an Ebook reader. Easier on the eyes with the backlight and adjustable font sizes, page colours, etc.

9:39 am

crosshair

For those Babblers who use E-book readers, I have some 300 or so novels saved on my computer in an E-pub format. There are a wide variety of authors and genres, incuding fifty ir so books that are currently banned in the U.S libraries and school systems. If anybody wants then, just e-mail me and I will send them as a lot via the "We Transfer" app.

9:44 am

crosshair

There is an industrious individual who plays the Minecraft game. They have built a "Alexandria library" within the game, and filled it with books so that people living in opressed countries still have access to some of the worlds best literature. :)

9:44 am

rastapopolous

so cool!

9:45 am

crosshair

It is very cool. :)

9:47 am

crosshair

There is an ech of this going on right now in the scientific community. There are U.S scientists and researchers who regularly back up all of their data in Canada in order to protect their decades of work.
