12:27 am
lawfully
am I missing something? hmmm
12:31 am
shortstop
I agree with that but I finally got it finished
12:35 am
SeedyV
Screw this g'nite all.

12:50 am
caderoux
green up, then seems easy...
12:50 am
raggedyandy3478
i typically dont use the green nemore
12:51 am
caderoux
then you'll probably find it more like a medium
12:51 am

how's it going
1:38 am
sprite
Fine so far, this one is pretty much solving itself.
1:38 am
MaW
yeah it's nice and relaxing
1:38 am
MaW
which is good, as I can't dawdle this morning
1:41 am
sprite
So... I made a mistake somewhere. *starting over*
1:43 am
MaW
and done! bye!

1:44 am

Fun sounds good.
1:58 am
GingerUK
morning/evening everyone
1:59 am
GingerUK
another easy I see...
2:01 am
sprite
That's what it says. And some people are finished in a few minutes, so I guess it is easy. And I am soooooo thick today.
2:02 am
GingerUK
lol to be honest I don't always find they match their title... I finished a hard with little problem 2 days ago but before that I struggled on easy!
2:02 am
Atalante
sometimes easy's can be just as bad as a hard if you're in the right mood, sprite!
2:03 am
sprite
:) Well, I am having fun anyway, so I am not complaining! I just found an opening, btw. I might even finish this one yet.
2:03 am
GingerUK
some 9's and 3's are going in easy on this one but that's all I've 'seen' up to now!
2:05 am
GingerUK
wtg Sprite
2:05 am
sprite
I do have all the 9s. And I have one complete column.
2:06 am
GingerUK
me too just now, column 5
2:06 am
sprite
That's the one :)
2:09 am
sprite
Which leads to row 6.
2:13 am
sprite
And solves the complete grid. :)
2:14 am
GingerUK
WTG Sprite... just tying shoe laces here :)
2:28 am
Atalante
its so funny how people solve these differently. I got column 5, but then I got the middle square before row 6
2:31 am
GingerUK
same here, row 5 thenrow 8 then row 7
2:31 am
GingerUK
column 5 not row
2:41 am
Atalante
col 5, middle square, row 6, row 5, column 8

hello all!
11:34 am
hurshy
scribble! heidy ho!
11:34 am
Limer
Hey hurshy
11:34 am
hurshy
hello limer
11:34 am
hurshy
limer are you a computer whiz?
11:34 am
scribble
hey hursh! ive got a few minutes of free time during computer.
11:34 am
scribble
yo limer!
11:34 am
Limer
Boy, that center column was hard, eh?
11:34 am
hurshy
oh yeah, a real killer
11:35 am
scribble
seriously limer. :P
11:35 am
Limer
Scribble, yo, what's up?
11:35 am
Limer
Made me scratch my head.
11:35 am
scribble
muthin much. you?
11:35 am
hurshy
limer, please, are you a computer whiz? i need help.
11:35 am
scribble
whats wrong hursh?
11:35 am
Limer
Not a whiz, maybe a wonk
11:36 am
hurshy
i need to know if there is a way to tell firefox not to download mpeg files, or make it so you can only download them if you have the right password or something
11:36 am
scribble
sry hursh dont know anything about that.
11:36 am
Limer
Yeah, go into the options from the tool menu and change it from there.
11:37 am
Limer
I think you can tell it to ask everytime where to put the file. I do not know if there is a way to get password control
11:37 am
scribble
well folks free times over. catch ya when i get home! bye!
11:37 am
Limer
Later scribble
11:37 am
hurshy
but not where to put - i want it to NOT download them at all, unless maybe i control it - bye scribble!
11:38 am
hurshy
it doesn't seem to have an option for that
11:38 am
Limer
I'll have to get back with you. I am at work right now and cannot look. I run Avant at work and FireFox at home.
11:39 am
hurshy
i'll play around in the options.
11:39 am
Limer
If you do not find what you want, try to go to the Mozilla website and download an extension...
11:40 am
hurshy
en extension, eh? how will i find the sort of thing i want?
11:40 am
Limer
The website will describe what the extension will do. If it is what you wnat, download, then restart the browser and BOOM it's in there baby
11:41 am
hurshy
are they all free?
11:41 am
Limer
yes, all extensions that I know of are free.
11:44 am
hurshy
hmm they mostly seem to be geared toward letting you do more stuff instead of preventing stuff
11:44 am
Limer
look for password stuff
11:47 am
hurshy
no luck so far
11:47 am
hurshy
maybe i should search for something like parental control
11:48 am
hurshy
sigh. they don't seem to think of what i want.
11:49 am
hurshy
you wouldn't think it would be that hard to prevent the downloading of mpegs.
11:50 am
hurshy
and you'd think a person would be logical enough to notice that someone had deleted their mpegs before and not download more
11:51 am
parsec
you'd think a lot of things about computers. =)
11:51 am
hurshy
well - that last was more a thing about psychology ;)
11:52 am
parsec
well, so was mine, if you want to read it that way ;)

6:16 pm
scribble's mom
let me mark my board "red and green" and then can I ask for a clue?
6:16 pm
hurshy
certainly - but you're probably better off just using one color.
6:17 pm
scribble's mom
ok should it be red or green?
6:17 pm
hurshy
whichever you like
6:18 pm
scribble's mom
Green it is

6:53 pm
hurshy
and smart as a whip!
6:55 pm
scribble's mom
yes, she will put me in a good nursing home one day lol
6:57 pm
scribble's mom
OK she not on right now, she IS very smart. She has a very high IQ, she did not get it from me? lol
6:59 pm
hurshy
lol, so you don't like to say nice things if she's listening?
7:01 pm
scribble's mom
I dont want her to feel odd she has had a hard time with friends. She cant dumb down to her age sometimes.
7:01 pm
bookwyrmish
Hi, Hurshy's mom. I have soooo enjoyed getting to know hurshy. At her age, you two entering the online social community together (her sharing her interests AND friends) with you is pretty neat!
7:02 pm
hurshy
she shouldn't, she should just interact with more smart people! book - joking, or confused?
7:02 pm
bookwyrmish
Only in school will scribble ever be sorted into a group of age-same, maturity lesser, friends. When she gets to the "real" world, she will be able to find people she can be herself with, I hope!
7:02 pm
scribble's mom
me to
7:02 pm
bookwyrmish
Am I confused? Scribble told us happily one night that her mom was going to join?
7:03 pm
scribble's mom
but she is a very good kid!!
7:03 pm
bookwyrmish
Ooops, I see now I meant to say scribble in that first post!!! Red face...
7:03 pm
scribble's mom
lol
7:08 pm
scribble's mom
I am here
7:10 pm
hurshy
server trouble
7:11 pm
hurshy
i guess it lost my post where i said that i hope scribble and i can be good friends, because my experience as a kid was very similar to hers and i bet i could be helpful to her
7:11 pm
bookwyrmish
server trouble here, too, hope I am back
7:13 pm
bookwyrmish
server trouble here, too, hope I am back
7:14 pm
scribble's mom
She will always be on here!
7:15 pm
bookwyrmish
Well, that post disappeared into the ether. Maybe it will return! Anyhow, I see myself in a lot of what scribble says, too, like hurshy. She is so lucky to be a strong and supported person--good job mom!
7:16 pm
hurshy
i think there are a lot of us here who relate to scribble's experience :)
7:19 pm
scribble's mom
not me Im just along for her ride, Im a loud mouth and I dont say that in a bragging way
7:19 pm

This is really not working well (posting on this chat). I'm going to go tuck in my 8 year old... nite, but nice finally meeting you, scribble's mom. So happy to know you are joining us, too.
7:21 pm
bookwyrmish
Loud mouth or strong personality/example? Anyhow, I Am afraid I'm saying goodnight for tonite, but look forward to chatting again soon...
7:21 pm
hurshy
server hiccup over?
7:21 pm
hurshy
well that posted more quickly at any rate.
7:22 pm
hurshy
so what about scribble's dad? does he relate to her experience?
7:22 pm
scribble's mom
I had 3 hiccups
7:29 pm
hurshy
the server must have been drinking
7:29 pm
scribble's mom
I know it was not me drinking lol
7:30 pm
hurshy
so if you don't think she got it from you, do you think scribble got her high IQ from her dad, or did it just appear out of nowhere?
7:30 pm
miller da killer
hi everyone!!!

7:32 pm

hurshy, i'd like to compliment you on your songwriting skills.
7:32 pm
hurshy
oh, for which - grace o'malley's pirate song?
7:33 pm
miller da killer
yes, she's my sister, did you know? i thought they were pretty cool.
7:34 pm
miller da killer
have you written other theme songs for other players?
7:35 pm
scribble's mom
no he WAS "in my past" ok smart, and Im smart in my own way. Not book smart but.... I can SEE how to do work in my mind like math but not books and spelling. I think I have dyslexic.
7:36 pm
miller da killer
don't we all have a little dislexia
7:36 pm
miller da killer
:)
7:36 pm
scribble's mom
I am dislexic
7:38 pm
scribble's mom
I think it stops the spelling part of my mind. I can read just fine, just the spelling, I mix up my letters
7:38 pm
miller da killer
hey hurshy, maybe you should start charging for your songwriting abilities.
7:39 pm
scribble's mom
thats why it take me so long to get back to you on here, and my husband is mr speller...lol
7:39 pm
scribble's mom
my
7:40 pm
miller da killer
sounds like my mom, she's good at everything intelligent. i thought i had her beat on sudoku, but it turned out i was wrong.
7:41 pm
hurshy
sorry, i have to be away a bit, but no i didn't know she was your sister, interesting! :)
7:42 pm
miller da killer
if you talk to both of us at once, you'll notice the similarity. one being that both of us love to talk about random things not pertaining to sudoku. lol.
7:43 pm
scribble's mom
I dont think sudoku need clues like babble
7:44 pm
scribble's mom
there is alot of down time on here sometimes
7:44 pm
miller da killer
yeah, i've given up on babble. though i do like the regular boggle game. probably because made up words can be written down and my whole family gets a big laugh about it.
7:46 pm
scribble's mom
Im need to go eat I'll talk to you later. Its been fun, thanks
7:47 pm
hurshy
ah, bye scribble's mom!
7:47 pm
miller da killer
bye!!! nice talking to you.
7:47 pm
scribble's mom
bye all
7:48 pm
hurshy
well anyway miller, i'm glad you (and grace) enjoyed the (partial) song i wrote for her
7:49 pm
miller da killer
very enjoyable.
7:53 pm
hurshy
hello limer
7:55 pm
mrpresident

hurshy
mamabear ((((HUGS)))) for you if you're still here - so sorry about what you've been going through!!!
8:34 pm
mamabear
hi hurshy! what do you mean?
8:43 pm
hurshy
mama - sorry - browser crashed - mrp filled me in on what's been happening lately...
8:45 pm
hurshy
sounds like a very pesky fly.
8:46 pm
hurshy
are you not that bothered by it? from what mrp said it sounded like you were.
8:47 pm
mamabear
this too shall pass...
8:48 pm
hurshy
so you're ok?
8:49 pm
mamabear
I'll be ok... thanks for your concern!
8:49 pm
hurshy
let me know if i cant do anything, ok? :)
8:50 pm
mamabear
Actually I tried to commit suicide with a smartie overdose, but it didn't work.... LOL
8:51 pm
elmar
this one is hard :p
8:51 pm
hurshy
my sister LOVES smarties.
8:51 pm
mamabear
Well tell her to be careful - an overdose is not fatal, but also not fun.
8:52 pm
hurshy
how many did you eat???
8:53 pm
mamabear
lost count, got dizzy and they fell on the floor... what a mess
8:54 pm
mamabear
after I had my tummy pumped, they said there had to be thousands in there!
8:55 pm
hurshy
you ARE just joking, right?
8:56 pm
mamabear
well yeah, I'm joking - if I was serious - I would have used M & M's
8:57 pm
hurshy
lol, ok :)
8:57 pm
hurshy
m & m, MaMa, makes sense.
8:57 pm
mamabear
or maybe licorice whips - but I am not really into pain - more looking for a coma kind of thing
8:58 pm
hurshy
yes, pain bad.
9:01 pm
mamabear
so what's going on in your world, hurshy?
9:01 pm
David Mitchell
I'm back!
9:01 pm
hurshy
troll-bonking, today :)
9:01 pm
mamabear
hey David!!! haven't seen you for a while!!!
9:01 pm
mamabear
uh oh - trolls.... nasty creatures
9:01 pm
hurshy
just give me a minute i'm watching stephen colbert's speech at the white house press corps dinner
9:01 pm
David Mitchell
Hey, mamabear
9:05 pm
hurshy
ok hi there
9:05 pm
David Mitchell
Hey, hurshy
9:05 pm
hurshy
how are you david, did you end up marking or not?
9:06 pm
David Mitchell
I am okay :)
9:06 pm
David Mitchell
I did not mark!
9:06 pm
hurshy
cool, i guess i just got impatient.
9:06 pm
hurshy
i did see, while i was marking, what my next move ought to have been.
9:07 pm
David Mitchell
I went through every row and column looking for numbers that could only go one place, and didn't find any
9:07 pm
hurshy
there was one though, i think.
9:07 pm
mamabear
oh there were several!
9:07 pm
David Mitchell
I finally found a cell with a single possibility in the middle right group
9:07 pm
David Mitchell
I started with that one at random\
9:08 pm
hurshy
no mama he means after we had put in the first 14
9:08 pm
David Mitchell
Placing that one 6 broke it.
9:08 pm
hurshy
yeah, i think that was what i saw
9:09 pm
hurshy
were you looking for me before just to discuss the puzzle, or was there some other reason too?
9:09 pm
David Mitchell
That was the only reason. You asked, I think. :/
9:10 pm
hurshy
i just wondered cause you seemed so disappointed to miss me. :)
9:10 pm
David Mitchell
I spent way too long on it but it was really satisfying to find that
9:11 pm
David Mitchell
Well of course I would be disappointed to miss you
9:11 pm
hurshy
how nice of you
9:12 pm
mamabear
btw, David - thank you so much for all that help you gave me a while back in working the puzzle - I still use the hints! You're awesome!
9:13 pm
David Mitchell
Oh, you're welcome :)
9:13 pm
hurshy
maybe i should write a song about david's awesomeness
9:13 pm
mamabear
I know I drove you crazy that day!!!
9:13 pm
David Mitchell
Oh, please don't, hurshy
9:13 pm
David Mitchell
(blushes)
9:13 pm
mamabear
oh yes, hurshy, DO! *runs to get my guitar*
9:14 pm
David Mitchell
mamabear, I might be too busy some days, but you can ask whenever you need
9:14 pm
hurshy
let's see, what would be an appropriate tune to... well, to appropriate?!
9:15 pm
mamabear
thanks, David, you rock!
9:15 pm
hurshy
the davy crockett song?
9:20 pm
hurshy
giving clues to all in sudoku land
always willing to lend a helping hand
very kind and and nice and awe-inspiring and
that's why you're hearing this song from the band
david, david mitchell! king of of the grid frontier!
9:21 pm
hurshy
ok i don't actually know the tune very well so my meter could be off...
9:22 pm
David Mitchell
Aww
9:22 pm
hurshy
*ahem* anyone like the song?
9:22 pm
David Mitchell
(blushes)
9:23 pm
ashling

9:23 pm
hurshy
oopsie, just saw i've got an extra "and" in the third line
9:23 pm
scribble
hey hurshy! :)
9:23 pm
hurshy
hi scribble :)
9:23 pm
mamabear
I think that extra and through the meter off
9:23 pm
hurshy
well of course it would! you must pretend it isn't there.
9:24 pm
hurshy
that makes 3 sudokuers with theme songs now.
9:24 pm
hurshy
unless i've written others that i forgot about.
9:24 pm
scribble
gosh i am sooooo stumped on that middle column....:P
9:25 pm
hurshy
i know scribble, it's a real toughie.
9:25 pm
mamabear
hiya scribble!!!!
9:25 pm
hurshy
see david, you acted like you didn't want a song, but i knew you really did deep down inside.
9:25 pm
scribble
hi mamabear!! (((mamabear)))
9:27 pm
hurshy
scribbledy dibbledy, i have something to tell you
9:27 pm
scribble
what is it hursh?
9:27 pm
David Mitchell
Well... umm... maybe... but I didn't think I wanted it :)
9:27 pm
hurshy
*whispers* your mom said nice things about you when you weren't here... she didn't want you to know... shhh
9:27 pm
hurshy
i know you better than you know yourself, you see, david!
9:28 pm
scribble

9:28 pm
evanadine
*yawn*
evenin all
9:28 pm
mamabear
now, hurshy - her mom said shhhhh!!!!!!!
9:28 pm
hurshy
she actually checked to make sure you weren't on before she said anything :) it was funny
9:28 pm
mamabear
HI evanadine!!!!!!!
9:28 pm
hurshy
hi there evanadine
9:29 pm
evanadine
just got back this evening from my vacation...
i think i need a vacation from my vacation!
9:30 pm
hurshy
if everybody had vacation
across the USA
we'd be a tired nation
worn out from all that play
9:31 pm
hurshy
let's vacation now
everybody's learning how

*bass guy* come on a vacation with me
9:31 pm
scribble
hmmm.....so my mom thinks i have friend troubles?
9:31 pm
hurshy
oh dear, you weren't supposed to actually go off and read it!
9:31 pm
mamabear
see what you started, hurshy!
9:31 pm
scribble
oh it doesnt matter.....
9:32 pm
scribble
i didnt have many friends in elementary school,
9:32 pm
scribble
but im friends with a TON af people now.
9:32 pm
hurshy
she probably just meant it's not as much fun to have friends who aren't as smart as you - that's how i felt until i got to college!
9:33 pm
scribble
i have a book w/ all my friends in it.....maybe i should show it to her!
9:33 pm
hurshy
by the time i went to williams it was a relief not to be "the smart one" anymore.
9:34 pm
scribble
ah well most of my friends are ok smart.
9:34 pm
scribble
and 1 is super smart like me.
9:36 pm
scribble
well its nice to hear a compliment from my mom now and then...
9:36 pm
scribble
well its nice to hear a compliment from my mom now and then...
9:36 pm
hurshy
well mom's don't know everything. MINE never understood why i wanted to be the little mermaid.
9:36 pm
hurshy
my mom was the opposite - she complimented me so much i never believed any of it!
9:37 pm
scribble
my mom doesnt understand why i want to be the opposite of the little mermaid.
9:37 pm
evanadine
my mom was convinced i was on drugs and suicidal -- when i was in the FIFTH GRADE!
9:37 pm
scribble
is that why youre so nice hurshy?
9:38 pm
scribble
lol evandine!!! why?
9:38 pm
hurshy
is what why i'm so nice? am i so nice?
9:38 pm
hurshy
paranoid mom - or were you acting weird?
9:38 pm
scribble
yes hursh you are very nice! :)
9:39 pm
evanadine
both, i suppose...my brother was your typical trouble-maker.
i was just a loner, not a girly-girl, not many friends, shy, kept to myself, wore a lot of black...
9:39 pm
hurshy
that would do it, evanadine :)
9:39 pm
evanadine
i started keeping a diary just because i knew my mom would read it, so i made up fun stuff, just for her.
;)
9:39 pm
hurshy
not as nice as you scribble!!! you make me fruit salad. :)
9:39 pm
hurshy
oh evanadine - that is MEAN.
9:39 pm
scribble
evandine you sound like me!
9:40 pm
hurshy
your poor mothers.
9:40 pm
scribble
you know the black and not a girly girl thing.
9:40 pm
evanadine
hey, i TOLD her i was ok, i just wanted to be left alone!
9:41 pm
evanadine
meanwhile, my brother decided for 2 years that he was muslim (we are white)
and he was breaking into peoples houses and ODed on scotch guard!
9:41 pm
hurshy
i'm not a girly girl myself - but i did not wear all black either. just flannel shirts and jeans, or t-shirts in warm weather. actually my style hasn't changed since high school...
9:41 pm
scribble
how do you OD on scotch guard?
9:41 pm
evanadine
huffing, apparently
9:41 pm
hurshy
don't tell her THAT
9:42 pm
scribble
like i would do it hursh! *hurt face*
9:42 pm
hurshy
well, just don't want to ruin your innocence...
9:42 pm
scribble
dont you work at a school though?
9:43 pm
scribble
then you should know that some of the kids say alot of things they shouldnt say.
9:43 pm
hurshy
true - but none of them are quite as young as you - it's a high school.
9:44 pm
scribble
oh...well youve got a point there.....
9:44 pm
hurshy
btw scribble, i'm glad you seemed to be having fun with noble today :)
9:44 pm
scribble
yeah that was really fun.
9:44 pm
hurshy
a lot of people just want to do the grid and he needs some of us to be silly with him :)
9:45 pm
scribble
id rather be silly than do the grid..... :)
9:45 pm
hurshy
as would he - especially if there are no long words!
9:45 pm
scribble
i still dont get that.....long words confuse me.
9:45 pm
hurshy
it's not like he knows them
9:46 pm
hurshy
he needs clues for them, but then he feels good for being able to figure out the clues.
9:46 pm
hurshy
in fact he feels better figuring out a clue than finding a word himself.
9:47 pm
scribble
which makes sense i suppose...
9:47 pm
hurshy
i dunno, i think it's funny. i like finding words :)
9:47 pm
scribble
cuz anyone can monkey-type a word.
9:47 pm
hurshy
well, the 4's, sure
9:47 pm
scribble
but you have to use your brain to figure out a clue.
9:48 pm
scribble
yeah it is funny though.
9:48 pm
hurshy
but if you need longer words you can use your brain, both for words you know, and just general linguistics knowledge
9:48 pm
scribble
i dont think linguistics are my friend...
9:49 pm
hurshy
well, i took a course in it in college and it was very interesting.
9:49 pm
scribble
english? interesting? now thats a first...
9:49 pm
evanadine
i dont think taking a week off from sudoku is good for me...heh
9:49 pm
hurshy
not english, linguistics.
9:50 pm
hurshy
where you actually study how language works and stuff
9:50 pm
hurshy
it's pretty cool.
9:50 pm
scribble
oh so it does have a point...
9:50 pm
scribble
i never knew that.
9:50 pm
hurshy
however, i love to read too.
9:51 pm
scribble
i love reading. books are my friends, most definately.
9:51 pm
hurshy
and i majored in psychology.
9:51 pm
hurshy
i dabbled a bit in a lot of things :)
9:51 pm
scribble
i'll major in science i think.
9:51 pm
evanadine
hurshy is a professional dabbler
;)
9:51 pm
hurshy
there were two subjects i definitely was NOT interested in, economics and art history.
9:52 pm
hurshy
dabbler, babbler, what's the diff, right? :)
9:52 pm
evanonut
psychology, how interesting hurshy!
9:52 pm
scribble
i think i would die in economics. XP
9:52 pm
hurshy
ah... dr. nut... also interesting in the psychological sciences
9:52 pm
evanonut
being dr. nut, i would know
9:52 pm
hurshy
scribble - which science do you think you like best?
9:53 pm
hurshy
i love dr. nut! :)
9:53 pm
evanonut
my particular interests are split personalities, met one once!
9:53 pm
scribble
chemistry/elements, things like that.
9:53 pm
hurshy
you know, fredandkate was back again today, nut.
9:53 pm
scribble
thats really cool, dr. nut!
9:53 pm
scribble
he/she/they are weird.
9:54 pm
evanonut
ah, i did check beck, that's a personality
9:54 pm
scribble
(fredandkate)
9:54 pm
hurshy
lol, scribble - nut's talking about fredandkate
9:54 pm
evanonut
i gave them a free session
9:55 pm
evanonut
hey hursh, i thought math was your thing
9:55 pm
hurshy
if only you had been there today, we romped with him/her again
9:55 pm
scribble
umm....i think i knew that.....now im confused.
9:55 pm
hurshy
ok scribble, i just thought you thought nut was really a psychologist and stuff.
9:55 pm
hurshy
i teach math, cause it's easier, it has a right answer and all. but i didn't major in it.
9:56 pm
evanonut
certified loon spotter!
9:56 pm
scribble
he is! (or she)
9:56 pm
evanonut
i can spot a loon a log away
9:56 pm
hurshy
did you read this afternoon's log then?
9:56 pm
evanonut
only bits
9:56 pm
scribble
how long is a log?
9:56 pm
hurshy
LONG... hangs up your browser for awhile before loading.
9:56 pm
scribble
ohhh.....nvmnd.
9:57 pm
mamabear
depends on the size of the tree
9:57 pm
evanonut
one need not look far though
9:57 pm
hurshy
yeah, we were crawling with trolls.
9:57 pm
scribble
lol mamabear.
9:57 pm
evanonut
mama!!!!!!!
9:57 pm
evanonut
we were just discussing my field of expertise
9:57 pm
mamabear
did you slay em, hursh?
9:58 pm
evanonut
dr. nut, certified loon spotter
9:58 pm
hurshy
well doc blocked the bulk of them - but i called their principal, mama!
9:58 pm
scribble
i keep thinkin that says log splitter instead of loon spotter...
9:58 pm
evanonut
hursh, you do realize thats a bit, er, extreme
9:58 pm
mamabear
you mean your ability to leap tall weirdos in a single bound?
9:58 pm
scribble
thats what i thought...
9:59 pm
hurshy
these trolls were extreme!
9:59 pm
mamabear
OOOOOO hurshy - they will come and egg your house!!!
9:59 pm
hurshy
lol, they're going to come hundreds of miles to egg my house?
9:59 pm
evanonut
hope you got the run flats!
9:59 pm
mamabear
it's a network hursh - sleep with one eye open!
9:59 pm
evanonut
hursh, i work across from a boys detention center
10:00 pm
evanonut
do you know what those little shits are capable of?
10:00 pm
scribble
my mom used to work in a group home.
10:00 pm
hurshy
well nut, i couldn't help myself - they were dumb enough to say the name of their school, including zip code, and their teacher's name
10:00 pm
evanonut
just this last year, they kidnapped a woman and roder her around pittsburgh
10:01 pm
mamabear
but they are just kids, hursh.... just like .... ummm.... just like noble!
10:01 pm
scribble
and me!
10:01 pm
evanonut
just like noble!
10:01 pm
scribble
only older probly
10:01 pm
hurshy
mama, their conversation consisted of a) swearing, b) calling each other gay and "lezbo"
10:02 pm
scribble
oh well in that case hursh good job
10:02 pm
mamabear
hey hursh - maybe they posted the wrong info to get a rival group of kids in trouble????
10:02 pm
hurshy
they were swearing profusely at the regular babblers
10:02 pm
scribble
i hate that.
10:02 pm
evanonut
maybe the pricipal hung up and had a good laugh!
10:02 pm
hurshy
i doubt they would know the zip of a rival school, and when i called and mentioned the teacher's name, they didn't say, "who?"
10:03 pm
evanonut
not like they gave names right?
10:03 pm
evanonut
as in theirs
10:03 pm
hurshy
actually they did
10:03 pm
mamabear
maybe the principal was in on it!
10:03 pm
hurshy
not the brightest lot.
10:03 pm
evanonut
if they gave their names, then they were baiting you
10:03 pm
hurshy
no, they were all in class together, and they were trying to figure out who was who, that was all.
10:03 pm
evanonut
probably names of unpopular kids they don' tlike and pick on in the halls
10:04 pm
hurshy
well, the school can try to sort it out - i did my best.
10:04 pm
scribble
im not sure the principal can do anything about it though....
10:04 pm
evanonut
and now you landed these poor, unpopular, socially sad children in detention with the bullies
10:04 pm
scribble
unless ot happened at the school.
10:04 pm
mamabear
one thing I've learned in these chat logs - anybody can be anybody they want..... and never actually themselves
10:04 pm
hurshy
yeah they were AT school scribble.
10:04 pm
scribble
oh well then thats diff.
10:05 pm
mamabear
well, actually, they SAID they were at school.
10:05 pm
hurshy
they pretty much had to be mama, cause i think doc blocked one IP address and got rid of the lot.
10:05 pm
evanonut
unless they can prove who was on the computer though, they probably were messing up the lives of the alreay tortured
10:06 pm
evanonut
lookout, trenchcoat mafia II
10:06 pm
hurshy
well nut, i'm sure if it was unpopular kids whose names were mentioned, the principal will figure out that they weren't really the culprits.
10:06 pm
mamabear
well, personally, I think contacting Dr. G was sufficient - that got them off the log - the rest of it is supposition, but to each his own
10:06 pm
evanonut
i dunno
10:06 pm
evanonut
i just worry
10:06 pm
evanonut
i was the unpopular sociall inept kid gettin picked on
10:07 pm
evanonut
and If that is the case, it would be awful
10:07 pm
scribble
awww....poor dr. nut....is that why you became a phsychologist?
10:07 pm
hurshy
well nut, i just know that at my school, we have a pretty good sense, if someone is accused of something, whether it makes any sense or not.
10:07 pm
evanonut
well, i didn't get a fair shake, popular kids could not lie
10:08 pm
hurshy
(((nut)))
10:08 pm
hurshy
i suppose since our school is so small, i'm just used to the idea that the faculty know the students very well.
10:08 pm
evanonut
tx, just think next time i wouldn't do that hursh
10:09 pm
mamabear
but not all schools are the same...
