HI!

12:01 am

Happy New Year, Day #2!

12:01 am

First post!

12:01 am

jb you did it....

12:01 am

It's good to have a goal that is attainable!!!

12:02 am

As a matter of fact I do have to cut and past the entire list of words into a file tht then resides on my hard drive. I don't peek at my xmas presents either. Sometimes I do manage to remember the first and last words of the puzzle, but not usually.....

12:02 am

Thanks, Blaze, I've been practicing my "flips" while on vacation this week!

12:02 am

3 S's..... OMG, there must be 600 words... LOL

12:03 am

BrandyJack, I was wondering about that, thanks for clearing up the mystery.

12:03 am

only 229 on this one.

12:03 am

JB -- I've said it before -- the big accomplishments are nothing but a bunch of little goals stacked on top of each other --- so Yayyy for you again!

12:04 am

Hey all... think I will wait to see how many words there are and then decide...to have another chocolate tequila

12:04 am

well shoot, in that case I can have tequila AND babble

12:04 am

Stats are up in both places, refresh to see them. 229 words.

12:05 am

I'll take the chocolate, Griff! and give you back the tequila (non-drinker here). Anything with chocolate in it must be a good thing (excepting insects!)

12:05 am

chocalate tequila???

12:05 am

hmmm that reminds me I have chocolate hidden somewhere... be right back

Good Morning everyone!

12:09 am

BrandyJack, here's how I use the stats list: 1. copy and paste to a Word template 2. type in the grid on my table on the template 3. print the page(s), and the first page of the grid I need to see it in front of me on paper, so I can scribble words, and take it AFK if needed. It's made my Babbling that much more fun!

12:14 am

12:16 am

12:16 am

I can usually get the 4 & 5 words but the long ones avoid me .... I think I need new lenses for my glasses with ""long veiw"" LOL

hi , all!

12:17 am

Just look for smaller words and see if poss to make em bigger......no big secret....lol

12:19 am

beebee -- I just speak in reference to my personal frame of reference -- save me a lot of headaches :) Same way I wish people Merry Xmas -- I am wishing the blessings of my holiday upon them-- It doesn't matter if it is theirholiday, it is my frame of reference and thus still a positive thing :)

12:19 am

12:42 am

Why sorry?

12:46 am

tw 7 and 8 I could actually use those words daily... tw*** food in the fridge now there is not.....

12:47 am

LOL

12:48 am

The tw just won't come to mind -- common as it may be!

12:48 am

tw 4. plus so 4

12:48 am

It's not what that cowboy in the song is.

12:50 am

ah -- a scottish beginning!

12:50 am

Aye! (Ywis, as a babble player would say)

12:51 am

thank you, all

12:52 am

You are so very welcome....

12:53 am

However, I am still confused -- got the start but can't seem to follow through...

12:53 am

Some of the usual suspects are in this grid again... the little nasty ones. So far I found H4, O4 x 2, N4, P4 x 4

12:53 am

how many words today?

12:53 am

gw so 4/5

12:53 am

229

12:54 am

Woulf, if that cowboy in that song would get company of another one, he could use this word in the same song :)

12:54 am

Ah! -- got it now :)

12:56 am

and now I have the 8's and 9 :)

12:56 am

omg.. ty i will never get all the words ever in this game..

12:57 am

You will, Bami. Just hang on and keep playing :)

12:57 am

Bamis -- sure you will! That's part of why we are here :)

12:58 am

well done blaze -- I'm only at 138 and heading for bj's list.

1:00 am

sprite - you want worship to be there and I keep seeing township! ;D

1:01 am

I must bid you farewell for now. Got a friend staying, which is great, but the babbling must be kept to a minimum ;) Sorry for rushing through the grid like this. Good hunting to all of you and hugs for who wants them. *big warm hug for Woulf*

1:01 am

Oooohh, townships would have been SO nice a word :)

1:02 am

(*Big Hug for sprite*) Have a great day with your friend!

a 7/44?

1:03 am

We are about to have a great day. Kids are free from school. We go see Harry Potter 4 this afternoon, and after that we go out for dinner at the restaurant I have been going to since I was 6. :) Feels more like family than as a restaurant, but the food is Israelian, which I cannot cook myself :D

1:04 am

i have 91 and i thought i was doing well... only 138 to go!!!

1:05 am

Sprite, I'm going with my girls to see Harry Potter too this afternoon!

1:05 am

Bamis, you are doing great! It's just that there are so many words in this grid that we have seen here dozens of times before - what I call experience, and most nonbabble people call addiction ;)

1:05 am

sprite - sounds great! The movie was very good, and I wish I could try the restaurant :)

1:06 am

If you ever cross the big waters, please do come by. We will take you there!

1:08 am

Hugs, that is such a nice idea, to know we will both enjoy HP! Have fun with them!

1:08 am

Bamis -- don't try to judge yourself by how others do, that way lies frustration and disappointment -- believe me, I know! The pleasure of the game derives from YOUR personal achievements, not those of other people! You are doing great!!!!

1:09 am

Thanks, you enjoy too. My litle one and I went to see it last night, but it was sold out, so we ended up seeing Narnia... which I thoroughly enjoyed too.

may i have a clue for the nine please?

1:10 am

Narnia is the one I hope to see before my son is born, but the gods of busy schedules seem to be conspiring against me...

1:11 am

bye sprite- have fun

1:12 am

narnia is great...very magical! Just saw Pride and Prejudice for second time..also very enjoyable...great music and acting and scenes!

bye, sprite!

1:12 am

temple- did you need the a7?

1:14 am

Temple -- if you have the othere ep7/36 & 8/50 combo, just add a consonant in the middle to get the 8 & 9 the singular forms end in so4/5

1:16 am

a7-Nearest the stern ep8/50 The region between the antennae and the mouth, in Crustacea ep9 make 8 plural

ty, woulfie - no i did not so now i have four more words!

make that 5, thanks to beebee!

1:21 am

Yw -- and in response to your question of earlier that I missed -- we had a whole 3 sales today at Lenscrafters -- the entire mall was pretty dead!

1:29 am

Well, folks... I think I'll save the rest for later... goodnight all and sleep well. *hugs*

1:30 am

G'nite Hugs (((*HUG*)))

bye, hugs!

omg - so late! and 60 left...i must go! don't know how i'll ever get back into work mode...

1:39 am

Sorry to see you go, Temple -- see you later!

bye, everyone! happy babbling!

2:06 am

bye temple -- i want two more words, then I'm quitting for the night.

2:07 am

eo 5?

2:11 am

eo plus very bad thing..... (biblical)

2:14 am

Thanks, Blaze

2:14 am

y/w how far along are you with this one??

2:15 am

sp6/21?

2:16 am

sorry hockey guy I am nowhere near that far along///

2:17 am

I'm just over half... I just skip around the letters, but that's my last s so I'm trying to finish it.

hi everyone!

2:20 am

Hi.

oh dam it have to go!

2:20 am

Heh. Ok, bye.

2:22 am

hockey guy sounds like spies change vowels and vowel at end...

2:23 am

Wow. Awesome thanks!

2:24 am

Thank you as well, Blaze :)

2:24 am

you are all very welcome

2:28 am

GW... non babble question.... my lenses never stay clean.. I use a good cleaner but...?? is there something else I can do to keep them clean...??

2:29 am

Only 2 T's left now, both being the 7 and 8 Tws.

2:29 am

What type of cleaner and cloth do you use? Also, do you have an anti glare coating?

2:30 am

I have anti glare yes.... I use an opitical brand cleaner and a regular towel...

2:31 am

HG two words tw 4 + so 4

2:32 am

Anti glare is harder to keep clean than standard lenses due to it's nature -- they have come out with a much better antiglare coating that works to repel dirt much better -- its been out for only a few months

2:33 am

However, try getting a microfiber cloth or else use a clean cotton t-shirt rag to clean the lenses -- that may reduce number of times you need to desmudge the lenses :)

2:34 am

hmmm that is great to hear .... but my wallet can not put out that money for new lenses right now... I will keep that in mind and just keep cleaning the darn things... I have transitions too....

2:34 am

Thanks for that too!

2:34 am

microfibre cloth.... I will track one down this week..

2:36 am

The transitions has nothing to do with the smudge factor -- though I always suggest having a pair of dedicated prescription sunglasses is a good thing just because transitions lens don't get as dark thus promoting eye fatigue on bright days

2:38 am

200 -- seems a good place to quit for the night. Talk to you tomorrow if you're around.

2:38 am

gw... I would agree... although I do find my transitions very good.... especially with the bifocals....(lineless).... I will look into dedicated sunglasses...especially if I can get glasses this year... a 2.1 deal of some kind... at 400 plus a pair it is not too likely I will pay for two pairs

2:38 am

Good night Nan....... see you tomorrow

2:39 am

A fabric called moleskin works well for cleaning glasses as well.

2:40 am

thanks nan

2:40 am

Blaze -- just so you know -- I get certificates that I can give to friends which entitle them to a 50% dicount at any Lenscrafters location -- is there one near you?

2:41 am

Blaze -- meant to ask "Is that a 'blaze of glory' on your icon?

2:41 am

C-nan -- no one ever suggested moleskin to me before, but thinking on it you are right :) G'nite and see you tomorrow! (*Hug*)

2:41 am

gw yes there is but I doubt that it would be okay in Canada if it is from the USA.... trans border and all that

2:41 am

Stopping at 185 for today. Night everyone.

2:41 am

Of Nan you say the nicest things... (( blush))

2:42 am

good nite hockey guy

2:43 am

Blaze -- the company is all one and the same -- it is actually owned by an Italian company, Luxottica, at this point --- so the certificates are valid there --- if you want one, send me an email and I will mail it to you :)

2:44 am

Have a good night, everyone!

2:44 am

Pleasant Dreams, c-nan!

2:59 am

my server was uppity for a few minutes.... I am back now...

3:01 am

Well, it is time for me to go to sleep -- Baby will be up in about 4 hours -- I don't want to be too much of a groump cos I'm tired --- See you tomorrow night, Blaze!

3:02 am

GW good night and big thanks (()) you have mail.....

3:03 am

Good morning all how many words today please?

3:03 am

And don't forget to email me -- address is in my bio -- If you want I can send you two certificates -- I never use them all every year so I would be more than happy to! :D

3:03 am

4:23 am

5:20 am

Anyone know why I can't have shinto?

5:26 am

Possibly 'cos it's a proper name?

5:34 am

My dictionary shows it as an adjective

5:35 am

Frances Babble uses enable dictionary words only... ask Dr. G about it... what does it mean ??

5:36 am

HI all...only words allowed are the ones found in whichever dictionary babble uses...

5:36 am

there are a lot of words that do not figure in the dictionalry behind the grid. Hi Blaze Happy New YEar. Shinto is a religion

5:36 am

adj : relating to or characteristic of Shintoism

5:37 am

Hello Missy me

5:58 am

Hey tbear :) Some of the words in this puzzle today are cwazy I have no clue what they are!

5:59 am

Hi Blaze :)

6:00 am

But funny, I finished this one hours before I finished yesterdays and this one is longer. I think yesterday's was much harder...especially those r's

6:01 am

my favorite words in todays grid so far are the 6 x e that come out of the top right hand corner as they will give you a 9 3x8 and 2x7

6:02 am

Mitch...I agree...those were fun to find :) Something satisfying about typing in a long word and watching it being accepted

6:03 am

i want episode,,,,,,

6:04 am

lol tbear...now I'm seeing that one! Someone wondered earlier why shinto wasn't accepted. I curious too

6:05 am

I'm sure 'isolate' is there if I keep putting it in often enough :)

6:06 am

Oh god, Chessy...same here. It has to be there but I don't have any words left..maybe its a hidden bonus word :)

6:07 am

my hidden bonus word is good nite to all....

6:08 am

Blaze good night :) I'm headed out too if no one needs any clues. :)

6:08 am

Bye Blaze, see you again soon!

6:13 am

Chessy...I typed in "late" a bunch of times every time I tried to put in a word with "late" as the root. It finally sunk in there were not "late" words

6:14 am

MissyMe - I have just been doing the exact same thing, can't believe it's not thre :)

6:15 am

strange how the eyes play trix :)

6:16 am

Oh how frustrated you get when you see that one letter you need just one letter beyond it. lol

6:17 am

FMitch, I found an e6 and e/7 using the e in the upper right hand corner but can't seem to find anything else.

6:18 am

Wrong, I found an e7 and e/8 so far using the e in the upper right hand corner

6:19 am

are they the ones to do with letters and the Bible?

6:20 am

The next ones are what Paul wrote to the church...letters called ep******...

6:20 am

Yes re letters anyway

6:21 am

Did you get so4/5 yet? That will help to build the next ones

6:21 am

any clues for the af7

6:22 am

no so4/5 yet

6:22 am

the other 4 all use the same 1st 3 letters - for the 1st pair 7 & 8 add your so4/5 and pl then for the other pai play around with the spelling.

6:23 am

is the so4/5 a common word, just can't see it

6:23 am

af7/44 Farthest part of ship af* + mo4/5 (the fourth mo4/5 on list)

6:29 am

FMitch, thanks so much

6:30 am

You're welcome peri.

6:30 am

there's another ep 8 and 9 (plural) it's spelled like ep7/36 but you stick a "t" right in that common word

6:33 am

Can't find the at4 words or the at5

6:34 am

peri.....think particles

6:35 am

tbear, For goodness sakes, I always have trouble finding that word, don't know why thanks

6:36 am

up to 106 time for a break see you later

6:36 am

Every now and again i jump outta my skin as one of the balloons from my birthday gathering explodes....it's like new years all over again....OOOHHHHH please NOOOOO I'm so tired and all partied out

6:36 am

"Al**, poor Yorick, I knew him well" the al above you drop the last letter in word above and add a vowel

6:37 am

next one is stout drinks

6:37 am

there there tbear!

6:38 am

next one is word for a low female singing voice

6:39 am

tbear I'd be putting the balloons outside. Exploding balloons have always scared me

6:39 am

Thx Fmitch....keep making soothing noises until i drop off....and take the rest of the balloons into the jardin,s'il vous plait.......B*A*N*G

6:40 am

the next al4/4 is a tone in the octave...(plural)

6:41 am

*gathers up all the offending articles and takes them to the bottom of the garden, and leaps up and down on them all with glee*

6:41 am

*plugs her ears*

6:43 am

All gone tbear. *passes tbear a sachet of resolve*

6:44 am

6:46 am

LOL MissyMe - allegedly it's an after partying too much pick-me-up.

6:47 am

*duct taping bubble wrap to every surface in the room*

6:53 am

There! Babble has been bubblized!

6:54 am

Awwww Missy and Fmitch....thank goodness for friends.Joel looked after me well when I was poorly,but like all men disappears when there's real work to be done....snuggles down into the pillows sipping dissolved resolve (I love those two words)...smiling a weak,tired but grateful smile...

6:55 am

SO.....what times the next party.......sshhhhh

6:56 am

tbear My husband cracks me up sometimes. While working under his car he will yell for me to hand him a tool which happens to be not even two inches from his hand. lol

6:56 am

tbear do we need an excuse for one?

6:56 am

LOL glutton for punishment eh?

6:57 am

Well I used to run into the garage and hand him his tool. Now I saunter in and say...wow...its right by your hand and then just stand there lol

6:59 am

Husbands, you gotta love 'em. I had one once, and that was enough.

7:00 am

That's boys for you....a bit like teenagers who stand in the doorway shouting,'Mum,I can't find it' without even having looked and expecting 'it' to jump from wherever 'it' is hiding and straight into their arms...

7:00 am

lol Fmitch :) I still have the same one...I decided not to turn him in for another...that would just be reduntant

7:02 am

tbear...oh yeah I had two boys and my husband all yelling that over the years and not one of them even looked first I started to call myself :The Great Momdini...watch her produce missing objects out of thin air..."

7:03 am

could someone pleeze give me a clue 4 the fa-7-40

7:05 am

If you got the fa5/16 you add a plural form to get fa7/40. The plural form has an "e" in it

7:06 am

thank u missyme

7:07 am

You're welcome :)

7:17 am

any clues for the mo6 please, starting to flag now with only 38 left to find.

7:19 am

7:20 am

Happy New Year everyone, mitch mo6 is Shakespeare, the fool would be dressed in this

7:23 am

thanks ferrari, happy 2006 to you too.

7:30 am

cool guys...just heard from Joelgee....live and kicking and being disciplined with regards to Babble.....sensible man...he'll be back as and when....Yay

7:31 am

thats good to hear tbear.

7:31 am

discipline, what's that?

7:32 am

that's when your SO locks your computer in the closet so you can't Babble.

7:32 am

Is that why I keep seeing fettish in this grid?

7:32 am

LOL... yup.

7:32 am

yea! discipline and play babble all in the same sentence... nah!!

7:33 am

sounds terrible

7:33 am

haHAhaHAhaHAaaaaa

7:34 am

distinct overtones of s and m, aaagh

7:35 am

Frances...I wanted soooo much to use those double t's but it just wouldn't happen for me

7:36 am

talk about multi-tasking...trying to eat fried egss on camenbert on toast whilst babbling,chat logging,answer the phone and leaning over the cat who is lying on my lap/stomach.....

7:36 am

Hi MissyMe I don't think I have a fettish - well maybe cricket(!) but it just keeps jumping out at me

7:37 am

lol Frances and hello :D

7:37 am

Frances...you're amongst friends here....come on spill the beans....

7:39 am

Hi tbear. No great shakes really. I just happen to be a cricket scorer. Wonderful, just me and twenty four men - if you count the umpires.

7:39 am

I think I may be forming a fettish. I get this satisfying, stimulating feeling when I type in a Babble word and it's accepted...

7:41 am

Frances,if you need someone to mop sweaty brows on a hot summers day...give me a shout...that'll be 12 each then!! to tend to I mean.....somebody give me some valium pls

7:42 am

Think I'm in for a fun year...have started it like a puppy...very frisky...hahahahahahahaha

7:42 am

*Hands her and Valium and keeps all the Demerol for herself*

7:42 am

or is it bromide???

7:43 am

LOL tbear, think it's the bromide you mean. but what the heck - go for it girl!

7:44 am

just spent 10 minutes trying to find an L word when I've already got them all

7:44 am

tbear Think it will have to be bromide if your round my lot. Some of them are very tasty!

7:44 am

ferrari lol

7:45 am

Yeeee Haaaaaa slapping thigh in a Doris Day Calamity Jane kinda way.....Whip crackaway,whip crackaway,whip crackaway.....Take me back to the black hills the black hills of Dakota.....SHUT UP tbear....

7:45 am

Valium is for zoning out...Demerol should be put in the water systems of the world...it's what I call the "love medicine"

7:46 am

does bromide have the same effect on women as on men?

7:46 am

tbear second thought. Perhaps valium would come in handy right now

7:46 am

*taps her foot to tbear's madness* Catchy...

7:48 am

tbear, was that water you disolved your resolve in or was it wine?

7:49 am

Missy...ask Lola or Anj bout just how 'mad' I am......controlled but 'mad' none the less.....think I got my mothers share of fun and frivolity...she's become very Victorian of late!!

7:49 am

fmitch don't slow her down...The way energy prices are nowadays we can tap into hers and make a bundle

7:50 am

MissyMe Love it

7:50 am

Fmitch I thought vodka would be better......Only kidding tea and biscuits going down nicely

7:50 am

Good thinking Missy! woohoo only 22 left to find!

7:51 am

Crazy people are never bored...and they're never lonely....the voices will always keep them company :)

7:52 am

Alright Fmitch :) Go go go!

7:52 am

And when the voices stop you can talk to the cats or whistle a happy tune........I was kaiser Bills batman...springs to mind

7:53 am

your'e right missy, is it different for others then, how strange, shakes head in wonder

7:54 am

*tries to whistle the electronic music in the movie Forbidden Planet*

7:55 am

*flings her arms around like Robbie the Robot*

7:55 am

ferrari...see you in Bedlam then!! Mine's the corner with the giant invisble spiders....ha

7:56 am

*starts concentrating and producing an ID monster*

7:56 am

I'll join you then, I have many friends who are spiders

7:57 am

Bedlam is right next to Incognito, right? Or is it Incoherent? I can never remember...

7:57 am

Missy you alright there honey?

7:58 am

Anyone coming new to babble right now,would read this lot and run for the hills......fast

7:58 am

Wha???? Uhhh??? Oh...I'm...yeah, I'm fine...just a feeling a little spacy...

7:59 am

where as tbear is feeling a little bit spicy! LOL

7:59 am

tbear I thought that was where babble was......in the hills

7:59 am

Bedlams next to Mayhem, they're my sister's beautiful cats

7:59 am

It won't do em any good...we own the hills too :D

8:00 am

You guys are cracking me up.......really

8:00 am

well, here's some pollyfiller then.

8:01 am

ferrari Those a great names! My sister actually named her cat "sh**head". (same word thats in the puzzle today! So funny when she's calling for the cat to come in doors

8:01 am

the hills are alive with the sound of babbling :0)

8:01 am

good morning!

8:01 am

Hi Poo :)

8:02 am

FMitch Hope it is the heavy duty stuff

8:02 am

Just gave back two yorkshire terrier/border terrier mixed dogs we had for three days over New Year and their names were Missy and Rudy...short for Mistletoe and Rudolph....!!!!

8:02 am

awww why'd you give em back?

8:04 am

Tell me about it They was cuter than apple pie and custard My cats weren't too impressed tho

8:04 am

fmitch...did you bring enough pollyfiller for everybody? One can never be too thin or have enough pollyfiller...or duct tape for that matter...

8:04 am

oh...poor kitties...if they're not used to dogs it can be pretty traumatic for them

8:06 am

Missy, too thin???? just thin'ish would work for me LOL

8:06 am

Fmitch shall completely ignore yr polyfilla statement...anyway whats pollyfiller stuffing mix for your pet roast parrot.....eeewwww

8:06 am

ratties don't like either dogs or cats

8:07 am

fmitch I luv that distinction....bordering on "just under overnourished but not quite Shamu-ish"

8:07 am

but i love rats ferrari.....they so intelligent....just like me...hahahaha

8:08 am

ferrari you have rats?

8:08 am

those fe 4 words have no right to be words!

8:09 am

There can't be such a thing as overnourished...she says stuffing yet another cream filled biscuit in....so much for my NY resoltions so far I've broken all three....

8:10 am

been keeping ratties on and off for years, they really are good pets, and have their own little quirks and personalities

8:10 am

ferrari I agree...there are no such words except in Babbledom. And take a gander at the second fe4/8 when/if you get there...it can't possibly be a word

8:11 am

Ratties SO cute....off to get a ratty pic

8:12 am

rules are meant to be broken tbear,it's so much more fun :))

8:12 am

ferrari I like all domestic animals :) If my husband wasn't allergic to cat fur I'd be a cat lady...oh and a dog lady, and a hamster lady...and a snake lady...and so on

8:12 am

the mind boggles missy

8:14 am

I feel for my hubby because he does like cats. We do have an ornery beagle...he's the only animal I've ever known who swears! He grumbles, hates everyone and everything...what a booger he is! And it's not like we've mistreated him...he's part of our family, it's just he was cursed with a nasty disposition

8:15 am

We've got cats, a hamster and an african clawed frog. Poo thinks the menagerie is too small....

8:15 am

I'm finished and off to the hills - Buckhurst Hill. Thank you all so much for such a good laugh. My ribs ache. Hope its as good tomorrow.

8:15 am

Wow the frog sounds so exotic! Does it really have claws???!!! 0-o

10:32 am

10:32 am

sandy- y/w

10:33 am

Babs, I'll be jobless a week after that anyway so I can't afford it.

10:34 am

bb--can't get the sa 7 yet...tried all kinds of stuff...missing a neuron?

yeah, but the it'd be 230!

'then'

10:35 am

10:37 am

Babs sa7= sa4/4 (not pepper, but sa**) + the ending for self***(he's so self***- he won't share anything)

10:46 am

Weird word, thanks Beebee and Sherb

10:48 am

yoink- y/w, sorry i couldn't come up with a better hint

10:58 am

10:59 am

Cybernan, the in6/18 is what you do with software onto your computer, it can be spelled with a double letter at the end too but not in this grid

10:59 am

babbler- that's forever- you'll have to go home sooner ;)

11:00 am

Thank you - got them all!

11:00 am

11:09 am

bye, bee -- thanks for the help

11:10 am

Thanks zoom. I'd almost given up.

11:10 am

yoink -- that was sa 7/32 --- I'm looking for sa 6/27

11:11 am

No it wasn't Cybernan, look again

11:12 am

Maybe you got sa7/32 from that clue, but I got the sa6/27 from it.

11:12 am

cyber: it is the most sa6/27 when you ride a with a helmet rather than without a helmet....

11:14 am

In baseball if you are not out, you are sa**. If you don't try to steal the base you will be sa*****.

11:15 am

Thank you Walnutchen -- couldn't see that one! Starting in the wrong spot again.

11:16 am

Ok, so I show too many letters there. added the three letter ending to it instead of only the two letters necessary because it ends with the first letter of the ending already.

11:16 am

also gave me the sa 5/10 for the same reason!

11:17 am

If you started up top for that particular sa4/4, then you may not have the plural that starts in the bottom left corner and snakes it's way up the left side before dashing to the middle....

11:18 am

cybernan: really? I'm missing the 2nd sa5/10... got the first and the third one... any ideas?

11:20 am

walnut -- it's a plural of the sa 4/4 -- start in the bottom left corner

11:20 am

i'm looking for my last word - sh5/12 - i think its the 5th one of these i'm missing - any ideas please?

11:22 am

Got it Cybernan. Thanks.

11:22 am

take your dog to the vets for it's sh***, or put on your sh***, or take your horse to the blacksmith to get sh***....

11:23 am

actually the horse one is the last sh5/15, not a 12 at all...

11:24 am

sh5/14. fat fingers and wandering eyeballs this morning.

11:24 am

zoom - the 5th sh5/12 is a young pig...

11:24 am

11:25 am

11:25 am

11:28 am

zoom - if you look at BJ's list, you can check which one you're missing...

11:30 am

Had that (in the wrong spot) -- how about the sa 5/12 between horses' product and a school of fish?

11:30 am

sh5/14 small building in the garden sh5 /12 sensitive spot above ankles that gets barked sh5/14 watercraft with a captain sh5/12 type of rock or anagram of feces sh5/12 feces sh5/12 rocks near the surface in water, in a line sh5/12 young pig, plural 6/21 sh5/14 wearing footwear or horsesh*** sh5/12 footwear sh5/12 vaccinations or gunsh***

11:31 am

nan - plural of the horse's product...

I think you're missing the one that is a type of rock... when you are ill you take an anti****amine (spelled right?) hope that helps some

11:32 am

Greetings, all! How's it going?

11:32 am

yeah, i've checked the stats & i'm busy going in circles - i just love this game don't you? i have the lower leg plural, the rock, the fishy one, young pig & injections. is there another one lurking?

11:33 am

Thank you Brandyjack -- it was the plural I was missing.

11:33 am

OMG - just got it from bj's list in the log - & it was the faeces plural - how appropriate is that?!

11:33 am

hi Jera :) ooh, bunny's got an icon, bunny's got an icon...

upgraded...woo hoo

11:35 am

How about a clue for the 9...? And you'd better comply, or I'll set Bun-Bun on you....

11:35 am

That was confusing, but I finally have that nice little column of red check marks. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the 9 is a pain in the butt

11:36 am

welcome to Pro, bunny... now you just need a profile so we can read all about you... :D

11:37 am

ep9: plural of the ep8 before it which is ep7/36 with a consonant dropped in the middle. ep 7/36: ep + first person singulare + a few

pluralize your ep 8/50 any of several structures or regions situated above or covering the mouth of various invertebrates

11:41 am

anyone else getting a repeat on the log messages?

11:42 am

but the ep8/50 IS plural already....

11:44 am

um, no it isn't.

11:44 am

at least not according to the babble dictionary.

11:45 am

seems there are two and I have the one before the ep8/45. Now to figure out the last one....

11:45 am

brandy...i have it as a plural already too..can't figure it out

11:47 am

at5/10 anyone?

I gave the def for the one after the 8/45

11:47 am

I just used bunny's definition over at the one look reverse dictionary and that's what it gave me. Pluralized for the 9/66

11:48 am

BJ and Cat - throw the heavy book into it

ok sherb, profile updated, i'd better get some housework done, try to finish later, bye all

11:48 am

Bye, Bunny

11:48 am

ACK! the server's going down AGAIN? Oh. I dumped Jakey ... you might want to refresh to see my new avatar. :-)

11:49 am

11:50 am

brandyjack: the last ep 8/50 and ip9 is the same as the first ep7 + an extra consonant in the 2nd word of the first ep7

11:50 am

walnut -- sh 5/12: s + first part of the school suject that studies the past

11:50 am

Rhymes with rake over the c****

11:50 am

sh5/12 when the bottom rises suddenly, it is said to be sh***ing. Some have said a school of fish also.

11:51 am

intriguing, Darleen...

11:52 am

take the 1st ep7 and add a consonant after the 4th letter - this will give you the 8/50 and then pl for the 9/66

11:52 am

sh5: A large group; a crowd. or A large school of fish or other marine animals. brandyjack, it's one of my new beads :-) about 12mm across.

Good afternoon hurshy. I think you were right about my Sophie; I believe she does have an ear infection. She is no longer stumbling, but she's still dizzy. She ate a bit today, but spit up. Poor thing. Anyway, I was grateful for your insight. Left to my own thoughts I'd convinced myself she had a neurological disorder, or a brain tumor!

1:31 pm

sh 6/21 is plural of young pig

1:31 pm

mab - glad to hear she seems better. i know what you mean though, when my mitten woke up one morning and couldn't even walk, i thought it must be something extremely serious! i think anybody would think that, seeing the symptoms. so i was glad i could offer some reassurance! but yeah, all you can do is keep her hydrated. it will go away pretty quickly.

1:32 pm

Just found the piggies, thanks. My final word is one more sh5/21. Any more help, pretty please?

1:33 pm

the first sh 5/12 I believe you are looking for is the plural of the 4 above it...

Good afternoon, only have few minutes and then need to jump but could I get a clue for de6/21, thanks.

1:42 pm

Thanks for letting me know about that, babs, although The organisation I work for deals mainly with adults with Asperger's... Still, I'm sure any info you could pass on would be extremely useful....

1:44 pm

mark -- to make less (opp of pepper)

1:44 pm

Babs- I have a friend that is having her child, 4, tested extensively - they are most sure that it is aspergers

1:44 pm

help on the ep's?......I was only able to get 7/32 and 8/45.

1:48 pm

I'm having trouble with the 'of' words. The a2z word finder can't even come up with what these two words might be. A little help please. Thanks.

thanks moncrunch

1:50 pm

boatierra - the of words are an offensive termn for a white person and the plural (think the actress from the original version of King Kong)....

1:53 pm

circe and movieman...please contact me through the profile, and I'll share with you information about how we work with conditions like autism, asperger's, etc with some breakthroughs in nutrition...very exciting stuff, actually. Happy second day of 2006!

1:57 pm

most of the long ep words end with the same 4 letters...so monkey typing helps...vowel +prounoun for I +s when plural

1:58 pm

JJ the ep words you have are the only long ones that don't have that 3-4 letter common ending..

can I have a clue for the niner please???

2:03 pm

Babs, have just had a look at the site that can be accessed via your e-mail address, and at first glance it looks like a mine of info.... I shall study it more thoroughly later on...

2:06 pm

need help with F words please have fa4/8 and fa4/7 need two more and have one fa5 unkind word for overweight folks. need one more. also cannot find fe6.

2:07 pm

movieman...I can simplify for you when you contact me..if you're visiting the site, just watch the first little movie...you should enjoy since you like movies!

2:07 pm

Sam: EP 8 and 9, hard to clue, but I'll have a try: ep plus what you call yourself (one letter), another word for pebbles beginning with S; you will have to change the second to last consonant for the 8. 9 is the plural. Hope that works for you.

2:09 pm

peri...the fa 6's are add on's to your fa 4/8...the fe word you are seeking starts with the word for a kind of party or celebration.

2:11 pm

the MO 6 and 7 should be easy. but.... sigh....help!

2:11 pm

boatierra - did you, by any chance, get the 'of' words.....?

thanks mab! i'm off I think my eyes need a rest what do you think (*<_>*)

2:12 pm

Hi guys....round 3....

2:12 pm

Babs1, I already have the fa6 words, need another fa5 and 2 fa4.

2:13 pm

2:20 pm

Hi everyone! off from work today so Kristianna is insisting on her flash vid fix :)

2:21 pm

i finished awhile back...just sitting at my computer reading some chapters for a wholistic health practitioner course I'm taking..thought I'd help with clues in between

2:21 pm

2:21 pm

boatierra - in that case, did you happen to read my post at 1:50pm....?

2:21 pm

grazie, spellit

of words - think of girl that King Kong loves and add o to front of name then plural it

2:22 pm

Babs1, where are you taking the course, I am intersted in wholistic health also

2:22 pm

GreyWoulf, hi there, was asking where you were earlier

2:23 pm

movieman - I did, and that's why I checked Urban Dictionary. The have listings of 'urban' term. Basically international offensive and slang terms.

2:23 pm

peri..I've been working as a wellness consultant for years...just taking this course over the internet...be glad to give you some ideas if you e-mail me through my profile..

2:24 pm

forgot to say have 'spoken' to Joelgee,he's fine and just working hard....phew

2:24 pm

I haven't seen any of the King Kongs.

2:25 pm

Hi peri! Usually I am on late after the daughter is asleep but she does LOVE her Magical Trevor :D

boat - actress name in the original, and imho the only King Kong movie

2:25 pm

in that case, boatierra, just put a 3 letter girl's name after the o, and then pluralise it for the 5....

2:27 pm

Got it! Thanks all :)

2:27 pm

GreyWoulf, Is the Lenscrafters where you work inside the Mall in PM

yvw Boat

2:27 pm

tbear...love! your icon! Can hear him through cyberspace!

2:27 pm

Yes it is, peri

2:28 pm

I'd never heard of that 'offensive' term, and I'm white.

2:28 pm

Neither had I, Boat, so I guess you learn something new every day......

2:29 pm

YVW?

2:29 pm

GreyWoulf, Used to go there quite often. Had a friend who lived near there. We had a falling out and she has since died (nothing to do with our friendship), Someday I may just go there to stop in and say hello in peson

2:29 pm

the recipients of offensive slang are often protected from hearing the slang about them, because by definition, you're not hanging around with the other folks most of the time..imho

2:30 pm

peri -- I would welcome the opportunity :)

2:30 pm

movieman - totally. BTW, my signature is two words. boa and tierra. Boa means good in Portugues and tierra means land/earth in Espanol.

2:34 pm

Babs1...he's gorgeous isn't he..wanted something new for the new year...starting my year roaring...lol

2:34 pm

Babs1 - that's mostly true. In jr. high I was called 'weta' (I forget how to spell it in Espanol), slang for a white, blond girl. I heard that all the time.

2:35 pm

tbear -- that's like my icon represents my leaping full on into the new year and all it holds ;D

2:36 pm

tbear,totally cool and outrageous icon for a roaring new year..awesome!

2:37 pm

marigold are you playing?

2:38 pm

Greywoulf and Babs,after hitting 45 4 days ago felt I needed a shake up and bears are cute but??????? It's roaring lion time for me!! By the way happy New Year to you both.....

2:39 pm

Happy New Year and Happy Birthday, tbear! BTW -- today is Mamabears b-day as well as Jera's :)

2:40 pm

Hi guys! Hey tbear ((xx))..... should I start this one??

2:40 pm

yes

2:42 pm

Oh tbear, your birthday! Happy birthday!!!! Can you stand much more celebrating? Silly question; of course you can. Happy, happy, exciting, wonderful day to you!

2:43 pm

boatierra - did you know that a 'weta' is also a type of insect that's native to New Zealand? I believe it's what Peter Jackson named his movie special effects company after.....

2:48 pm

*clinking glasses* here in toast to tbear's roaring birthday and new year!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!

2:48 pm

marigold, do you have a question you want to ask?

2:51 pm

OKAY THANKS EVERYONE...... BIRTHDAY WAS WELL AND TRULY CELEBRATED....ASK LOLA....So Mamabear's another capricorn.....and Jera too...great...

2:53 pm

2:55 pm

marigold -- do me a favor and email that question -- address in the bio -- I have my daughter here with me and she makes it hard to focus on answering you , as she is grabbing the mosuse :)

2:55 pm

Lola...good trip back...I've had a day off,completely...except food,babble and tv

2:55 pm

Hi everyone. My birthday was the 30th and for my present to myself I signed up for "pro" and put a picture of our Belted Galloway cows up for my icon. Been playing for a few months .....rather quietly.

AF- farthest or rear of airplane + rhymes with host

2:57 pm

actually , tbear, there is a difference between an opthamologist and an optician -- an optician does not require as much in depth training marigold -- emailling me will also let me locate the relevant info where you can apply if you are interested :)

2:58 pm

monpazier....same day as me.....yay. I always celebrate on the 29th cos most people want to save themselves on the 30th for the 31st....Happy belated birthday to you....where are you from and what gender?

2:59 pm

tbear, good trip thanks...... but I'm already planning the next one! ;)

2:59 pm

What a nice gift to yourself. Happy birthday, montpazier!

2:59 pm

tbear.....I am female....from the US......thought I put that on my profile....I will check that. Happy birthday to you, also!!!

3:01 pm

Congrats on the Birthday and pro status, monpazier! Welcome to the pack :) (*hug*)

3:01 pm

Greywoulf....goes to show what I know.....must admit we have a very handsome optician and when he comes in real close to check inside the eye with the light thingy, I find it very difficult to breathe....Lol

3:01 pm

GreyWoulf - How do I email you?

3:01 pm

lol, tbear

3:01 pm

Hi Lola! I'm so happy for you; sounds like you had a wonderful holiday. Isn't life just so fascinating? Sorry, monpazier, for misspelling your name.

I just wanted to know if she was ok really. Haven't seen her in the brief time I've logged on over the holidays.

i am looking for the other is6 as well as the ins...

3:41 pm

in--where you put a body

3:41 pm

patact - sort of Scottish for a pair!

3:41 pm

hi to all my Babble friends !! snowy -- I thought we talked you in to buying that dishwasher for yourself yeserday :) and welcome back lola & Anj, have missed you guys lately !!

Does anyone know why my game won't accept any four letter words?

3:43 pm

LOL Cathy - husband not convinced! But I now have 350 plus days to convince him!

3:43 pm

lol! i'll let her know you are concerned!

3:44 pm

Anj,,,,Chris closed at 11 so by half past we were upatairs tucking into cheese and biscuits...my first food all day.....given it all up now....til babblers meet up!!

3:44 pm

Aww, thanks cathy! :)

3:44 pm

snowy...will have to treat him to a pair of rubber gloves...pink would suit him!!!

3:44 pm

babble dude.....try refreshing...

3:45 pm

Hi everyone -- just popping in to suggest to those of you that haven't been reading back in the log that we have a 'real me' icon day... or even week. What do you think -- personally, I'd like to be able to connect a face with all my new friends in Babbleonia

3:45 pm

Thanks Cathy : ) Good to be back lol Bear, woman cannot live by lime alone : D

ty patact. now need only the is5 and the last in6...

3:46 pm

cybernan I agree...... snowy..with fur round the top

3:46 pm

tw7 & 8(plurall): scottish two + some

I like the real me icon idea.

3:47 pm

Cath - he must be the most broken down dishwasher in the world! LOL Maybe if I threaten him with rubber gloves enough - he'll give in!

3:47 pm

CathB -- good idea :) then if hubby does the dishes all the time, it won't matter to snowy whether she has an automatic dishwasher or not :)

3:47 pm

is 5 & 6: last part of St. John's letters

3:47 pm

sorry the fur gloves comment was for Cathb,Snowy

3:48 pm

Lo, has the computer been sorted then or are you Babbling on borrowed time??? : )

3:48 pm

Ah Cathy thereby hangs a tale! He told his parents I didn't need one because I had him! I've never owned a machine that made so many excuses!

3:49 pm

ok why are you talking about rubber gloves?

hello cybernan : ) hello, bunny : )

3:49 pm

I can vouch for that snowy

monpazier, thanks, it sort of worked, I now have to refresh on every four letter word for it to work.

3:50 pm

can i have a list of the fa's please!!!!!!

3:50 pm

Perhaps I could persuade him to write an excuse book and then buy a dishwasher with the proceeds!

3:51 pm

ah well, gotta love him though, don't you? I'd give anything I own (even my dishwasher) to have my hubby back -- excuses and all !!

3:51 pm

Lol Snowy......and that fur comment was for you...I think...I'm getting befuddled

3:51 pm

in 6/18: what you do with a new program & your computer ---- you in**** it - no double letters in 4/4: opp. of out of in 6/27: in + burial place

3:51 pm

That's rather odd...babble dude. You might try doing a complete shut down and logging back on.

3:51 pm

Babe, got a fancy new one!!! Flat screen (I can actually see the icons now), bigger hard drive (can play myst 4- woot!) Will probably be pestering you tomorrow though about re-installing scrobbler, lol!

3:51 pm

snowy - just remind him how much time it saves us on holiday -more time for stripping paint !

3:53 pm

Nothing like a bigger hard drive to brighten up your day hmm?? ; )

3:53 pm

lol Cath - the paint stripping is promised to start tomorrow!

3:54 pm

LOL! Missing you already babe! : )

3:55 pm

Anyone else need a clue before I leave you? -- looking for an excuse to put off decoration removal a little longer!

3:55 pm

Can some one please tell me 98 words is enough so i can stop looking!

thanks for your help, cybernan!

3:56 pm

come on gem gem..2 more make it 100

3:56 pm

gem, 98 is fab! But two more and you'll have a nice, round 100 ; )

oh no, you must continue!

3:56 pm

ugh, cybernan, know what you mean. I finally finished that task yesterday. I love the decorations, but hate the job of taking them down and putting them away!

3:56 pm

Missing you too babe : ) I'm finding out that an Xmas break does nothing for my spelling... : /

3:57 pm

back again, marigold are you still playing?

3:57 pm

Anj -- or my typing skills (or lack thereof) !! But sure to hate the thought of going back to work tomorrow, too :)

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

Ah, but Cathy, procrastination is a wonderful thing!

3:58 pm

ok then!

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

I agree ... why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?????

3:59 pm

yep mine was good!

4:11 pm

Yes thanks, gem -- our family certainly did! My icon photo was taken Christmas Day -- the big smile is because Santa came through with new golf irons! How about you?

4:11 pm

Yes thanks gem :)

OK finished and i need some help. i am giving a speech to the Womens' Entrepeneurs Association of Cedar Rapids. There will be about 80 women there. The subject is Renegotiating with Integrity. I need to tailor the presentation of how women renegotiate differently than men. Any thoughts on the subject. Are women better listeners? If you have examples or stories that I could use I would be very greatful.

4:13 pm

no golfing irons for me cybernan it's not fair!!!!!!!!!!! good lola :D

4:13 pm

marc, when are you doing the speech? give me your email and i'll try to jot down a few things for you.

(((((((((((anj!))))))))))) Welcome to the year 2006!

4:14 pm

Marc woman are the best at every thing so naturally we're the best at listening!

4:14 pm

Weeell ... it does help that Santa practically lives at the golf course all summer. I should have got a tent for his Christmas gift!

4:16 pm

well i got him a sleeping bag!

4:16 pm

marc -- I'd also be happy to share a few tidbits I've picked up during my business career. let me know how to send to you.

4:16 pm

LOL

4:16 pm

Last word... any clue for the last ho 5/12? (in between party giver and opposite of cold)

my email address is marc@marcfreeman.us. Gem, I don't doubt that women are better at everything but I really need concrete stories when they are renegotiating. Renegotiating, according to me, is the art of revising, altering or changing a previously negotiated agreement. It is basically breaking a promise or commitment.

party giver with a vowel for ho5

4:18 pm

oooooo i'll be quiet now because there were long words in that

4:18 pm

ho 5/12: add a vowel to ho 4/5 -- it's a shade loving plant

4:19 pm

cypernan maybe we can find him a tent in the sales?

4:19 pm

Thanks to all! Finished for the day

By the way the speech is January 10th.

4:22 pm

So are we making tomorrow official real people day?

4:22 pm

Bwah hah hah hah hah...that's all the vowels down. Now for the real words } )

4:22 pm

It's a little dark on my screen, tbear -- but otherwise looks great -- thanks for joining me!

4:54 pm

Snowy your icon reminds me of one of my favorite childhood memories. It was very late at night...I had gotten bored and stepped outside just to view the stars, which was my habit. I heard a quiet fultter of wings. I looked up on a telephone pole and there sitting on top was giant white owl. He flew straight down the telephone pole and then about two ft over my head! What a beautiful creature he was! White owls were endangered then and completely gone in my area today, I feel privelged to have witnessed one.

4:55 pm

please could someone give me a clue for the fa 7/ 40

4:56 pm

5:51 pm

HI folks. HAPPY NEW YEAR! I've just finished the grid - in between ironing and a new year clear-out of the clutter.

5:51 pm

hi everyone. One can still find candy cigarettes if one really looks. they don't taste like anything, but they satisfy a small transgressive need.

5:51 pm

peri - add a vowel to a so4/7 and then pluralise

5:51 pm

lol snowy... instead of precious jewels i now get ny yankee stuff...where did i go wrong?

5:51 pm

two pi6's first is past tense of pi4/6 and then second is plural of word the word rhymes with "fish"

5:51 pm

peri..the so 5 word is like the word for couch with an extra consonant in the middle, then plural for the 6.. the pi 5 and 6 is built on the pi 4 that is a word for disdain, but kind of sound like peeing..root word ends in sound you make to have them be quiet..

5:52 pm

Hi jacula! : )

5:52 pm

i need the 1st or 2nd pe4/6...any clues please.....the pe4/6 i have has something to do with walking i think

6:39 pm

moncrunchr, is6/18 - "I wanted to stop and rest so I *** ** a chair" : )

6:42 pm

pe 5/12 builds off the 4...do you like pasta with pe***...the green herb?

6:43 pm

at 5/10 has the world on his shoulders

6:43 pm

pe 5/12 griding tool you use in a mortar

6:43 pm

Missy, you're right, it's not out in the US until end of Feb. You could always order the UK edition from Amazon.co.uk lol. Just noticed the Amazon UK is pairig him up with Alistair Reynolds. He's a good read as well : )

6:44 pm

thanks....got them all now except the first pe 4/5

6:45 pm

pe 4/5 take pumpkin "pies", reverse the first vowels and add an "e" at the end

6:45 pm

Alistair Reynolds I agree about him! :)

6:46 pm

Missyme - Yes, Joe P is a comedian with a squeaky voice.

6:46 pm

first 4/5 is a Mexican coin

thanks missy me - that is one i have - along with the boats, the common word plural, and the crowds, and the piglet, and the two from footwear...

6:47 pm

I got that one Missy....that one is for one of the pe 5/12

6:47 pm

Jacula...okay, now his official website makes sense...the reason why he called his 2005 Tour "Does he really talk that way?"

6:48 pm

yeah JJ I made a mistake on that one but the second clue I gave is the right one now :)

6:49 pm

Looolllaaaaa How are you doing babe??

6:49 pm

there's two pe4's the second pe4 is not a pet but a pe**

6:49 pm

hi all... I just joined and was wondering how you all are getting the clues as to which words you stillneed... ie. some of you know you need a word with 'pe' as the prefix.. just wondering.......

6:50 pm

21 to go babe, can I break for a coke and more chocolate?? : )

6:50 pm

Bamis7 - check out the Babblers Anonymous link at the bottom of the Friends of Babble panel on the right. The daily stats are listed under the General thread.

6:51 pm

Bamis Welcome!!! Brandyjack posts a great list of the first two letters of each word, the number of letters in the word and the points awared for each Go to Babblers Anonymous at right link...go the General and then the first post is his list it sure helps!

6:52 pm

Well, as long as you've been a good girl Lola ; )

6:53 pm

Hmmm, what if I haven't then?

6:53 pm

lola we never need an excuse for mass consumption of chocolate :) go girl!

6:54 pm

LOL! I know you haven't ; )

6:55 pm

thank you sooooo much! do you all just print it off or do you keep going back and forth to it.... or is there a way to keep the window open for reference?

6:56 pm

Some of us print it...some of us make a separate link to it and some of us copy and paste it to Word or Notepad and keep it on desktop. It all depends on what's convenient for you :)

6:56 pm

I have a question for all you professional Babblers in regards to scoring. I know how the scoring works, but how about when the site starts keeping score? I mean if i just log in, and don't put any words in, will I recieve a 0 for the day and get a big dent in my score? Or does scoring start once you enter your first word?

6:57 pm

Rich for what I've seen...you don't get any points for that puzzle but you're not penalized for it either. The points are just added up from the words you DO put in. :)

6:57 pm

thank you for that!! this should make my babbling a lot less frustrating... i have been doing this all without hints and that is kinda crazy

6:58 pm

Bamis, I keep it in a separate tab. or window, depending on which browser I have open at the time.

6:58 pm

Bamis I hear ya! Especially when we find a word that, to me, shouldn't exist, at least not in this parsec of the galaxy lol

6:58 pm

on that same note..do you get points taken off if you enter an invalid word or a word you already have?

6:59 pm

No you're safe there Bamis...no penalties

6:59 pm

fabulous!

7:00 pm

Bamis, if Dr. God had set up the puzzle that way I would be giving him points...I'd be in the red lol

7:00 pm

bamis now you can ask for clues, too.

7:01 pm

We ask for clues like this: whats a clue for pe7/32 pe is for the first two letters, the 7 is for the number of letters in the word and the 32 is the points awarded

7:04 pm

clues for the last le4/6?

ok i am pretty desparate. I hope at least this helps the late starters, and hopefully get me a clue. sh5/14: storage bldgs sh5/14: big boats sh5/12: type of rock, alt spelling sh5/12: plural of a coarse word sh5/12: crowd sh5/12: piglet sh5/14: footwear past tense sh5/12: footwear plural

7:04 pm

Bamis, sometimes that's the only way I get words.. just typing letters ("Monkey typing")

7:04 pm

anyone have a clue for sa 6/27?

7:05 pm

hey Rich, sometimes it seems to me like if i log in and don't put words in my points go down. but that could be just because i'm losing a good puzzle to none on the 30-day rule. but just to be safe i usually log into bj's list first and if i don't think i can do it sometimes don't log in

7:05 pm

le4/6 the "y" is our friend JJ :) and its plural

7:05 pm

temple what did you need?

oh - and sh5/12: gunfire - plural

i need an sh5...

and also an sa6

7:08 pm

sh5 okay your missing the plural of the front part of our lower leg your and when you hit this part it hurts!

7:25 pm

aaargh! Thanks temple : )

7:25 pm

Leslie...someone pointed out that a much bigger word, shinto, is not accepted either It might be because its more a proper noun than an..ummm...improper one. :D

7:26 pm

Lo, the sp6 is in the same part of the grid and sounds like the girl group who told us what they want, what they really really want : )

that was the sp 6/21 - nonny you look, too!

7:26 pm

sp6/21 - add an 's' to your pe5/12

Can anyone give a clue for the 9? Also, I'm missing two 8's. I have 2 epi ones. Tryng to get as much done as possible before the site goes down for service. Or did that already happen? Thanks!!!

8:16 pm

ep9 is the plural of ep8/50

8:17 pm

take your ep 7/36 and stick a T right in the middle (and the plural)

8:18 pm

Hi all! I'm back again. Any help with the last la 6/21???

8:18 pm

Unea-I'm confused (not an uncommon state of affairs). The ep8/50 I have is already a plural. Is there another one?

8:18 pm

la6: kinda not on time . . .

8:18 pm

eva, sorry for the confusion--yes there's another

8:19 pm

la 6/21....... not earlyish, but .,...

8:19 pm

8:21 pm

hi all, cathy, what a good-looking family!!!

8:22 pm

Are there any non-e 8's? What a strange puzzle.

8:23 pm

8:24 pm

thanx...my youngest, my son is 9... at the bottom...my birthdaughter... (gave her up when i was 19) is now 20!!! just met her in Nov 05!!!

8:24 pm

i think there is one that isn't an e... i have all the e's and still need an 8

8:25 pm

oops, sorry, one's a "tw"

8:25 pm

Okay, so the ones I have are ep8/50 ep8/45 ep8/50 What should I be looking for? Do they all have the first person singular for the third letter?

8:26 pm

A tw? Hmmmmmm.

8:26 pm

why is latin not a word when some of these other lame ones are?

8:26 pm

it's the plural of tw7/48

8:27 pm

so cool cathy!!!

8:27 pm

Any clues for the long tw's?

8:28 pm

pretty neat experience for sure!!! but man....i just can't get my last 8!!!!

8:30 pm

YEA ME AGAIN!!! I LOVE fireworks!!! Thanx, mrpres....

tw - another word for couple, but change the first vowel

8:31 pm

Thanks unea-once again you come to my rescue, but what the h___does it mean?! Can't find any definition and have never heard it before. Is it a version of a gruesome twos___?

8:31 pm

cathy, you wouldn't say that if you saw my score! I only have 212 words left to find, not quite a master. . . .

8:34 pm

yep, i think that's what it means . . . scottish maybe?

8:37 pm

I'm down to 76 myself..still feel quite like a newbie @ babble yet!!! but hell..it's fun!!!!!!!!!!

8:51 pm

Is Babble going to be (temp) down in about 10 minutes?

8:53 pm

it was s'posed to be down for temp time starting about 55 min AGO....... :s

8:53 pm

Boa I think in about 45 minutes or so. It says central time but for me it should have gone down already if that was true

8:54 pm

dunno . . . it's already 53 minutes past the time it was supposed to go down . . .

8:54 pm

Boa...just keep typing until Dr. God kicks us out. lol

8:57 pm

down to one word . . . sa6 . . . and can't find it--any hints?

8:57 pm

LOL, no doubt.

8:57 pm

Well now my day is complete. It is my birthday .... I am STILL sick.... and I just found out one of my very dear friends that I work with resigned today..... and NOW I come on here to find Babble is disabled..... this year is NOT starting out well.

8:58 pm

ohnooooooo, so sorry to hear all that, Mamabear . . .

8:58 pm

oh, mamabear, I am so sorry. Feel better soon.

8:58 pm

thank you

8:59 pm

Happy Birthday anyway, Mama *sends her healing thoughts and well wishes* Maybe you're getting all the bad things out of the way all at once and the rest of the year will be peaceful! Hear's hoping so...

9:00 pm

sa6 its the best"est* way to type sa4/7

9:05 pm

MamaBear: Don't base your happiness on Babble, even tho it is a great game to play. Your work person who resigned today, may be, probably, the worst thing. But, life turns and churns, it could also be for the best. Happy BD. You are strong and you will survive all this turmoil in your life. Get better.

9:08 pm

If anyone is like me and didn't know the definition of the second fe4/8...it means: a Hebrew coin took me a while to find that definition!

9:08 pm

evenin all! mamabear, we have the same icon! great minds think alike. ;)

9:10 pm

evanadine Good evening to you! Hope your weekend holiday was pleasant :)

9:10 pm

hooray the grid is working again

9:11 pm

Leslie...had it gone down? I didn't know...I was away from computer fixing dinner.

9:12 pm

ooh, me too... just came back and assumed it had :)

9:13 pm

Leslie That warning message is still there so I assumed it hadn't yet.

9:13 pm

I'm in Mountian Time and have been working for the past two hours. It hasn't gone down yet

9:13 pm

Thanx mas :)

9:14 pm

oh well i should have stayed!

9:14 pm

It hasn't gone down here on the Westcoast yet either. What's up with that?

9:15 pm

thanks JoJo and MissyMe!!!! Hi evanadine - we are icon twins!! Don't know if I'm gonna stay long..... just thought I'd pop in and see what's going on.

9:16 pm

does anyone have the de 6/21?

9:16 pm

de + opp of pepper

9:17 pm

ack how didn't i see that!

9:19 pm

Maybe Dr. God fell asleep and it won't go down.....

9:19 pm

yeah, really... de**** is usually next to depepper - I hate when people don't put things back where they belong!

9:19 pm

mon lol

9:20 pm

Mama we're all just sittin here waiting for the axe to fall...well...some of us are madly typing in words. :D

9:21 pm

Removes de**** from de tail of de bird hehe

9:22 pm

any clues for the af7?

9:26 pm

af7 A ship term.... the furthest part of a ship add the third mo4/5 which means the greatest

9:26 pm

thank you missy

9:27 pm

Yw doxy :)

9:28 pm

monc: Yeah, I agree, Dr. God must have fallen asleep!

9:28 pm

in6/18 anyone?

9:29 pm

in6/18 you do this to software when you put it on your computer but drop the last "L"

9:30 pm

thanks again missy. can't seem to find words tonight.

9:30 pm

Hi Everyone! AAOOOoooooOOWWW!

9:31 pm

doxy Yw :) When the time runs down close to the mark I get nervous and my mind goes blank

9:31 pm

GW: Where have you been?

9:32 pm

Hi GW! awwwwoooOOOOO back atcha...(that's my hound dog talkin )

9:32 pm

fa 7/40 anyone?

9:32 pm

Out at the babys store --- Border's! Also we went to KFC for dinner cos Kirsten had a craving and I found out the hard way that I can't eat their french fries :(

9:33 pm

fa 7/40 this is a plural of word above but add an "e" in the plural suffix

9:33 pm

You okay GW?

9:33 pm

Leslie -- plural the fa5 (overweight person)

9:34 pm

Nothing a little loperamide couldn't fix :)

9:34 pm

hmm i doubt the "real wordiness" of that. thanks.

9:34 pm

:) Were they too greasy for you?

9:34 pm

kfc has fries?

9:35 pm

I can't eat KFC chicken, ever. Gives me the same thing you experienced. It's good while eating it, but a few hours later, get me in to the bathroom!!!

9:35 pm

No, I think they use the same oil to fry them as Burger King --- ever since fast food places started changing their oils I have had problems

9:35 pm

Leslie I accidently typed it in that way with the "e" or I'd be struggling trying to get that word too

9:37 pm

Leslie -- the one near me is a combo restaurant with an A+W burger place --- which works for me cos I don't like KFC personally AND they have A&W root beer on tap! ;)

9:37 pm

No fast foods for me. Give a bit of wine, great dinner, and I am good.

9:37 pm

GW you're probably right. Supposedly, the new oils they're using are healthier but I'm thinking those oils break down easier and faster with higher temperatures and continual use as fast food resturants tend to do

9:38 pm

any one have clues for the is's?

9:38 pm

I look at it this way -- since the oils were changed I have not gotten fast food as often -- and since McD has the doulble cheeseburger on the dollar menu I shop cheap when I do :)

9:39 pm

doxy - I don't have the is's either, sorry :)

9:39 pm

is6/18 i + third sa5/10 (means a fabric with a shiny, silky sheen to it)

9:40 pm

thanks missy. you have been a word saver tonight.

9:42 pm

next two rhyme with missle but are not spelled that way drop the ep7/32 first three letters and you have the last two is's

9:42 pm

Yw doxy :)

9:43 pm

thanks missy. I thought I had monkey typed that one.

9:43 pm

How many times do I say THAT to myself when I finally find a word I'm looking for? lol

9:43 pm

mo6 & 7?

9:44 pm

think of the rock group mo***** crew

9:44 pm

mo6 & 7 like the rock group Mo***** Crew

9:45 pm

doxy -- I saw that clue earlier and it flew by me, but now I get it -- thanks :)

9:46 pm

I found the word on morewords and it clicked.

9:46 pm

I think 'I coulda sworn I monkeyed that!' should be an official button or T-shirt for Babble :D

9:47 pm

I agree with you GW

9:47 pm

Well, only 11 to go ---- all P's :\

9:49 pm

VERY GOOD idea GW :D

9:51 pm

or monkeytypers.com formally Babble.com

9:51 pm

and of course the ever popular "What the heck does THAT mean!?!"

9:53 pm

lol or "I'm totally stuck on the last word!"

9:55 pm

how about "Hi --- my name is Ad4/6, and I am a Babble addict!" Can personalise to suit ;D

9:56 pm

lol!!!!! Well thats just the sh512!!!

9:57 pm

*When all else fails...PLURALIZE*

9:59 pm

My word list, GW, doesn't have any AD's. What am I missing?

9:59 pm

"Pre- and Suf- fixes are the mixed blessing of the Babbleverse"

10:00 pm

Ad4/6 is the two letter rendition of my true name, JoJo, which is Adam ;D

10:03 pm

down to 5!

10:03 pm

ARG my ISP keeps kicking the bucket. We've had over 6 inches of rain here over the weekend which always effects the internet. :(

10:04 pm

thanks, missyme!

10:04 pm

missy, are you in that flooded area?

10:05 pm

Youre welcome Une :) doxy no...all the water is running down the hill from us and flooding the valleys :(

10:06 pm

I'm glad you are ok, though :)

10:07 pm

Thanx...I continually call my two oldest ones, though. My daughter lives in Galt and my son lives in Stockton down the hill. Both places have reported flooding....we're crossing our fingers the 3 dry days we have coming up will slow the runoff down to something manageable

10:09 pm

Missy -- just read your bio --- a woman after my own heart in almost all levels --- I am trying to talk myself into getting the newest plug and play controller --- it has 30 Commodore 64 classics in it, including Temple of Fargoal and Gateway to Apshai :)

10:09 pm

MissyMe: Hope your kids are safe tonite. Nothing worse than to worry about your kids. Blessings to you and yours.

10:10 pm

GW ooooo sounds totally awesome!

10:10 pm

Thank you Jojo. I think the 3 dry days we have coming up is a godsend!

10:10 pm

done! clues, anyone?

10:11 pm

Leslie!!!!! Yay for you! :) ~%%%~~~fireworks~~~%%%~

10:11 pm

Yeah -- the first pe5/12, please -- I figure it will give me both 6's :)

10:11 pm

GW: Commodore 64 ~ right on. My kids had the commodore 64, and then the MacSE before anyone in the neighborhood even had a computer. I am proud of that. In fact I still have my old SE.

10:12 pm

missy, we could be sisters. I have also been married 28 years, have 4 kids (not 3) and am getting my first grandchild this month. I love Stephen King!!!

10:12 pm

pe5/12 think several pumpkin "pies"...turn around the vowels and add an "e"

10:13 pm

add the "e" to the end of the word, I mean :)

10:13 pm

Excellent! and now I am done as well! (*Happy Dance*)

10:13 pm

Missyme: Your kids will be fine, I hope. Believe. Ride it out. Life is not easy, but OK.

10:13 pm

the computer says No but all of the H words are done anyone else having a problem??

10:14 pm

hi im new to the game any clues?

10:14 pm

try refreshing coolbear?

10:14 pm

Coolbear -- try refreshing -- that usually fixes it :)

10:15 pm

*shares in GW's happy dance* Woot woot woopie!!! ~~~%%**fireworks* *%%~~~ Thanx jo jo for the sweet sentiments

10:15 pm

fingers, if you click on the babblers anonymous link to the right, then click general, then click stats, you will get a list of the first and second letters of all the words for today

10:15 pm

fingers are you stuck on anyone particular clue?

10:15 pm

Happy Dance for GW!!! Not any way close, but will be proud of what I do.

10:15 pm

congrats GW!

10:16 pm

10:16 pm

my hubby and I had a commodore game system and wore it out. Really enjoyed those games.

10:17 pm

I've been waiting for you MaMaBear - to wish you a Happy Birthday!

10:17 pm

10:17 pm

Y ay for everyone else!!!! (*Hugs all around*) Mama -- (*Hug*) -- how are you doing today?

10:17 pm

I finally had to get rid of the atari games. No way to play them.

10:17 pm

thank you mas!!!!

10:18 pm

Hi, all! {HUGS}, GW! Okay, I think I have most of the words on paper, here I go (to type them in), hope to join you all in the Babble Ballroom dancing the Dance of Doneness! I don't type as fast as Speedfreak, tho, so give me a few minutes to report back!

10:18 pm

Happy Birthday, MAMA!!! BTW -- guess what, you share your birthday with Jera :)

10:19 pm

For convenience sake I put all my NES, SNES, N64, Genesis and Playstation games on my computer...woot woot...I can play them any time now without dragging out my old systems and cartridges!

10:19 pm

Hello JB :)

10:19 pm

I had my original Atari sytem (from before they called it the 2600) until about 9 years ago -- the reset switch finally went beyond the capacity to fix :)

10:19 pm

*singing* Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear mamabear Happy Birthday to you And Jera

10:20 pm

Thanks GW! I hope hers was better than mine!!!! Not a good day...... this virus thing is still getting the better of me... and I logged in to my email at work to see what's going on while I am at home and found out a very dear friend gave his notice and today was his last day.....

10:20 pm

Not a very good b-day present, huh, M-Bear?

10:20 pm

GW I didn't get the earlier system. The 2600 has some pretty fun games, though :)

10:21 pm

thanks doxy!!!!! *timid bow* I didn't know you could do that, MissyMe! You are very computer savvy! I am impressed!

10:21 pm

...still typing... ...going alphabetically backwards so I can see the list grow...

10:21 pm

Hi, M-Me!

10:21 pm

missy, how did you do that? We have all those plus the sega. Would love to have those on computer.

10:22 pm

hello fingers5...if possible pay for the upgrade & membership.... well worth it.... 15 monthes later and i still play every day..... lots of luck

10:22 pm

Missy the original is the 2600, just it was only boxed as the Atari home entertainment system or something like that -- when they came out with the upgraded 5200 they renamed it :)

10:22 pm

MissyMe - Have you by chance played Starcraft Broodwar or Age of Empires? I only ask because my husband did the artwork on them.

10:22 pm

Mama...the program to play them is called an emulator. :) They are not legal to use unless you already own the game...which I do. :)

10:23 pm

I thought there was one version they made earlier than the 2600...1500 or something like that

10:24 pm

mas, I think my son has played starcraft. he is really into the warcraft game.

10:24 pm

mas Yes... Starcraft and tell your husband thank you from me for the EXCELLENT graphics!

10:24 pm

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MAMABEAR!!!!!!!!!! I hope you've had a good, good day and that you have done something wonderful for yourself. (also hope you're feeling well enough)

10:24 pm

mas -- that is very cool! I think this is the best part of the chat log -- the minor brushes with fame we have and never know about until it comes out in passing ;)

10:25 pm

I will. I personally have never seen it!

10:26 pm

I cannot figure out what the DE 6 is. I have the de-seasoning word, may I have a clue for the other pleeeeeease?

10:26 pm

That's me Greywolfe - just brushing with fame.

10:26 pm

mas lol

10:26 pm

No it wasn't JBs... I knew he was looking and knew it was coming, but was still upset by it.

10:27 pm

DE 6 this is a small copy version of software on a disc you get to try out the game...its a de**

10:27 pm

mab -- it is the plural of the 1st de5 -- to remove excess adipose tissue

10:27 pm

well, not plural since its a verb, but you know what I mean ;)

10:28 pm

ugh sorry wrong clue :(

10:28 pm

thank you mab..... my daughter and her boyfriend went out to buy me flowers to cheer me up, but since I work for FTD and am not too happy with that place these days, they decided to get me lottery tickets instead!! They made me laugh.

10:28 pm

Mama...that is SO cool :) you're daughter has a great sense of humor!

10:29 pm

Mama -- has your coughing improved at least?

10:29 pm

MamaBear: Nothing wrong with lottery tickets. You were remembered by your kids, that's the most important thing. HB

10:30 pm

Yes she does.... people have told us that she is like my clone... her birthday is tomorrow!!!

10:30 pm

oh my :) well happy birthday to her too Did you scratch off the tickets yet?

10:31 pm

I now have it -- I actually looked and looked for it. Thank you GW. Done. Laughing is very good on your birthday mamabear, or any other time for that matter.

10:31 pm

I have been taking Musinex (?) it is supposed to break up the congestion and make coughing "more productive". I am still coughing but not as much but it sounds like I have a traffic jam in my chest when I do... I'm growing very weary of this whole sick thing.

10:32 pm

any clues for the sp6?

10:32 pm

Yes I did - I won $10 and 3 free tickets ... so about half of the tickets were winners!

10:32 pm

Hang in there Mamabear, it will go away.

10:33 pm

thanks JoJo!

10:33 pm

I finally went back to work today, was off all last week. I understand exactly how you feel mamabear. I'm still coughing.

10:33 pm

That's good, MB. It means that you are indeed getting well. The yuk has to be gone, rather than just sitting in your chest. That sounds odd, but you know what I mean.

10:33 pm

doxy - put an S in front of the pe5 that I asked for

10:33 pm

Hey GW, remember that job opportunity I told you about in Long Island that I thought was a dead issue?

10:33 pm

Mama, you getting plenty of rest? Warmed drinks also break up congestion such as any type of tea and chamomile works miracles is your throat is hurting

10:34 pm

Yes, Mama :)

10:34 pm

thank you GW.

10:35 pm

And you must do the chopped and boiled galic mini-sauna; it really does help.

10:35 pm

doxy - you too? I have had this whatever it is since Christmas Eve. Was going to go to dr. today but didn't want to spend my birthday that way and I'm hoping it will go away on it's own....... the weather is dreadful here and I think going out would make it worse.

10:36 pm

sorry to hear you've been ill, doxy. :(

10:36 pm

Yes MissyMe - been sleeping, but the sleep is broken up because of coughing and other aches and pains. Today is the first day in a week I didn't take a nap in the afternoon. Tried to stay up all day for my birthday!!!! Good Lord, how pathetic a life!!!!

10:36 pm

started coughing Christmas Eve. Had laryngitis from Monday til thursday. Also have bronchitis. I get it every year. Last year had it for 2 months. I went and got prednisone right away so I wouldn't have to go for 2 months again.

10:37 pm

mab - and it sounds like it would keep away evil spirits as well!!! LOL

10:37 pm

Mama -- I know you said you don't like tea, but Kirsten suggest that you try Celestial Seasonings Lemon Zinger with a little added lemon juice and honey -- it doesn't have the same taste as standard Tetley Blak Pekoe tea, so you may find it palatable :) Also -- add some extra garlic into your diet -- it has wonderful recuperative attributes :)

10:38 pm

Panic mode has set in. I still have 30 words and am afraid that Dr. God will turn off in 1/2 hour...

10:38 pm

doxy bronchitis is very serious :( It seems once you get it you easily get it again every time you get a cold

10:38 pm

I knew coming on here would make me feel better - you all are so kind are caring..... thank you

10:38 pm

Perhaps, mama. It also makes people back away a bit. But the garlic has antiseptic qualities. I do believe it helped me greatly one year when I had the galloping bronchitis.

10:39 pm

missy, i also have asthma when I get sick. It really makes the cough linger. the good thing is when the doc listens to me when I go in. I usually know what i'm talking about.

10:40 pm

I wrote down that tea, GW - tell Kirsten thank you!

10:40 pm

mas we'll help you through the tough ones. I'm wondering if Dr. God is now waiting to shut the site down just before or after the grid change...

10:40 pm

Missy - that is the nature of bronchitis -- it weakens the immune system so that you are more susceptible to it in the future

10:40 pm

mamabear, that's partly why homemade chicken soup is supposed to be so good. Its the garlic and onion added to the broth.

10:41 pm

doxy...I had a couple heart attacks recently...it wasn't the pain that scared me...it was not being able to breathe...I empathize with you. What a horrible feeling not being able to catch your breath!

10:42 pm

Thanks MissyMe. I'm not sure if I have it in me tonight. It is really snowing hard here and the cable T.V. has gone out and that usually means the computer will follow shortly.

10:43 pm

LOL - doxy -- back when we were on Long Island, Kirsten had the same kind of rapport with her doctor --- she would go into his office after ahving done the proper research and ask him for a particular treatment and every time he would concur --- being a nurse does have its advantages :D

10:43 pm

mas my ISP keeps going out on me too. Happens when we have too much rain. Well, just sit back and relax and enjoy some good Babble chat :)

10:43 pm

I am doing better this week. Last week it was hard to breathe during any exertion. i made all the way through work with only 1 bad coughing spell. started losing my voice again though.

10:44 pm

((((doxy)))) You on meds for your asthma or have a breathalizer?

10:44 pm

GW, that is for sure. I have left a doctor's practice for having them blow me off. Don't blow me off. I don't go in for every little thing, only when I need to.

10:44 pm

where are you mas? I am in Illinois - we had thunderstorms and 3/4 inch hail today and heavy rain

10:45 pm

Wow Mama...that's nasty weather!

10:45 pm

I have an inhaler I use when i need to. I did find some leftover advair I didn't know I had, and started that today. I think it helped.

10:45 pm

doxy - I am so sorry for you - I can't imagine having asthma in addition to what I have now. It is hard dealing with chronic type problems.

10:46 pm

Personally, I think that Dr. God is going to do all the updates after 10:00pm, or he would have done it before. You guys are good for the duration of time in your time zone. I am guessing of course. But what the alert said was 8:00 CT, that is 7:00 pacific, and I am still on. My bet is they are going to update after 10:00 PM. Nite to all.

10:46 pm

I'm in Utah. I drove my son to the ski resort today and the had 2ft. of new snow up there. It wasn't fun.

10:46 pm

nite JoJo!

10:46 pm

good...that will dilate your bronchial tubes and give your body a chance to heal, relieve some of the stress it's under

10:47 pm

mas, what part of Utah. I'm in South Jordan

10:47 pm

...still typing, I'm in the L's... MB - we drink Lemon Zinger every day, I use 8 teabags per gallon, and make about a gallon every 2 days. No sweetening. We drink it now at home instead of soda. Like it a lot!

10:47 pm

G'nite JoJo -- always a pleasure to have you around (*Hug*)

10:47 pm

Good night jojo :)

10:47 pm

Doxy - I'm in Orem!

10:48 pm

**Hugss* to all.

10:48 pm

we're neighbors. Woo hoo. I met someone the other day who lives in Riverton.

10:49 pm

oh really, JBs???? I imagine it is more therapeutic if it is consumed while it is hot though?

10:49 pm

MB, for what you have, hot is better!

10:49 pm

It is amazing to me that you have to go global to meet someone in your own backyard.

10:50 pm

Mama you can make it up, keep it in the fridge and nuke a cup when you need it :)

10:50 pm

Oh, GW - getting back to that job thing. I thought the whole issue was dead since my one contact does not work there anymore and I hadn't heard from the other one for months. Well, Friday, the 30th, I got an email from the other one saying he would like me to give him a call to talk to me once again about a "possible job opportunity"......

10:51 pm

hey y'all

10:51 pm

Hi beebee :)

10:51 pm

I hope we're not passing this on to our buddy babblers. Went to the Dr. Dec 20th. He prescribed FEXOFENADINE, generic for Allegra. Started feeling better within a couple of days. My daughter came down with it a few days ago. Hope you all get better soon. : )

10:52 pm

mas -- even before the internet, my family kept running into the same syndrome -- whenever we would go away for our summer camping trips, we would invariably run into some one from the Long Island area :D

10:52 pm

beebee Is that icon an artistic rendering of a galaxy?

10:52 pm

hi beebee! I usually don't drink anything hot - I have rosacea and drinking hot liquids usually aggravates it, but I think I will try this Zinger stuff.....

10:52 pm

Mama -- sounds good... Sound real good --- want me to send some mojo your way?

10:52 pm

mama- i don't recognize you w/out a bear icon! hey missy - gw- doxy- jb-and eveyone else

10:54 pm

beebee - isn't your icon that picture that was on the NASA site called the "Eye of God"?

10:55 pm

Mama -- I don't know anything about rosacea except the the face reddens, it it uncomfortable?

10:55 pm

Mama, please tell me you're not getting rosacea inside your mouth too...:( how horrible! Or is it around and on your lips?

10:55 pm

beebee - please REFRESH (and anyone else who wants to!) - this was my icon until midnite on New Year's Eve.

10:55 pm

mamabear, something I usually try when my chest is really congested and I feel like sh4/5. Mix up some lemonade and heat it. Drink it hot. Then go to bed. you sweat like crazy, but you feel better later.

10:56 pm

yes, GW, the face reddens and gets very warm to the touch. It is uncomfortable. Can be brought on by a number of things. One time I had chili at a church potluck dinner and something in it triggered a bad reaction. My face was so warm, I put a cold can of soda on my cheeck, and the can became warm ...

10:57 pm

missy- lol, it's a ring nebula- a dying star

10:57 pm

yes, GW, mojo!!!!

10:58 pm

sorry i'm slow- we've been having a storm and it keeps messing up my connection

10:58 pm

Oh wow! I didn't realise it was so bad -- the commercials that were on TV seemed to trivialise its symptoms...

10:58 pm

beebee you get it off Nasa's site?

10:58 pm

I'll add to GW's mojo...the more people positively concentrate the stronger it is

10:58 pm

beebee -- there's a lot of that going around tonight -- it's no prob

10:59 pm

Missy -- by any chance are you pagan?

11:00 pm

mama- i don't know if it was on nasa's site. missy- i got it from www.space.com- the photos are amazing- check it out

11:00 pm

anyone have a clue for the SA7?

11:00 pm

thanks MissyMe! I have such mixed feelings about the whole issue..... my life is a blender filled with turmoil these days!!!!

11:00 pm

No but I understand the juxt behind sending positive vibes

11:01 pm

mas -- if something is kinda sorta like the sa4 before it, it is sa7

11:01 pm

mas- sa7 sa4/4(the one to season food)+ a suffix(he's self***, he doesn't share)

11:02 pm

sa7/32 take sa4/4 above it and add a not so self"ish" suffix to the end of it ;)

11:02 pm

i guess site never DID go down, eh?

11:02 pm

no, mon!!!!!

11:02 pm

Cool, Missy -- I asked cos of the others I have met on the log :)

11:03 pm

mon I wasn't here for a while fixing dinner but apparently it didn't go down in my absence. The warning from Dr. God is still up anyway

11:03 pm

mama- that's a icon i can recognize you by- it's cute

11:03 pm

Are you pagan GW?

11:03 pm

moncrunchr -- if I weren't Babble's Greatest Gentleman, I could have SOOOO much fun with that straight line :D

11:04 pm

Maybe the good Dr. had more urgent matters to attend to .... like an emergency disc-ectomy!!!! LOL

11:04 pm

lol Mama you're punny this evening!

11:04 pm

LOL GW :D

11:05 pm

yeah, well, GW, they don't call me MonCrunchr for nuthin' either.... ;)

11:05 pm

i hope the plan isn't to go down when it's puzzle change

11:06 pm

lol I see your play on words and raise you the second fe4/8

11:07 pm

Yes I am, Missy for nearly 18 years -- been studying Eastern philosphy informally for the past 12 or so as well

11:07 pm

I watched the movie "40 Year Old Virgin" tonite...... so..... LOL, GW!!!!

11:07 pm

beebee that would suk the big one, (do what you will with that GW, lol) I do my best babbling just after the new grid is up

11:07 pm

Missy = ROFLMAO!!!!!

11:07 pm

lol Mama...there is actually a movie named that?

11:08 pm

Yes - it was really quite funny.... a 40 year old MALE virgin!!! Had 3 friends trying to "solve" his problem....

11:09 pm

awww Well...did he "solve" his problem?

11:10 pm

The scary thing is I knew a gentlman who was a virgin until he was almost 30... one of the nicest guys you would ever meet -- unfortunately I lost touch with him on not so good terms years ago

11:11 pm

Eventually.... he met a girl who worked at the store across the street (he worked at an electronics store) and they decided to wait until after 20 dates to have intimate relations.... the 20th date came and he didn't(lol).... he ended up marrying her and was a virgin on his wedding nite!!!!

11:12 pm

Okay GW, just read your profile...you're right...we have a lot in common and you have a VERY wondeful, positive life view. Too bad we can extract it, concentrate it down and add it to the world's water supply!

11:13 pm

...still typing, on the E's, finally got the 8's in!

11:13 pm

Mama...that was DEFINITELY a chic flic lol Guys would be throwing things at the screen when he refused on his 20th date

11:14 pm

JB those were fun to do. Lots of right top corner hunting there :)

11:14 pm

i understand the "wait" til your married thing- but, i would never buy a car w'out driving it, or a house without looking in it and would never spend the rest of my life doing the "deed" with someone before i knew what i was getting into. LOL

11:15 pm

Hey, MBear, I just caught my cat Paddywhack drinking my husband's leftover Lemon Zinger. He left his glass in the living room, right behind me, and I heard a lapping noise. She was dipping her paw in and then licking it off. So cute! and so bad!

11:15 pm

LOL - he made excuses and didn't want to tell her why he didn't want to - he was embarrassed. When he finally did tell her, she was touched. He said "I guess all this time I was just waiting to meet you" (gag, cough) what a line, huh?????

11:15 pm

beebee The idea of ending up with someone you're not compatible with in the bedroom really does argue for some premarital "problem solving" :)

11:15 pm

Missy - I would be willing to try except for the dramatic impact that would have on my personal health -- extraction--- Owiee!! I'll settle for being one of Babbles resident gurus ;)

11:16 pm

missy- amen sister :)

11:17 pm

OMG Mama...your right...did he catch any cod fish with that line? lol!

11:18 pm

nope - just the credits rolling as they kissed in the middle of a busy intersection and her right leg raised up...... yu know the scene!!!

11:18 pm

GW Since I've been here I have thoroughly enjoyed your happy and sweet spirit...it shines right through the internet :)

11:18 pm

JBs - let me know if Paddywhack is coughing at all!!! LOL If not, I'll give it a try!!!!!

11:19 pm

only have 2 left.

11:19 pm

And there - in one line - is the reason why I can't stand that type of movie --- I don't like trite cliche one joke movies -- if I am not willing to put up with it for a half hour sitcom on free TV, why would I spend 10$ to waste 2 hours of my life?

11:19 pm

Mama...lol Usually a scene like that doesn't include the leg but I guess they had to convey the idea of OMG I AM SO DESPERATE FOR S-E-X!!!!

11:20 pm

go doxy- go doxy- go go

11:20 pm

Go doxy go!

11:21 pm

go go go...go doxy go!!! No stay...and finish the puzzle!

11:21 pm

Finished. Woo Hoo!!!!

11:21 pm

It wasn't my first choice either, but was just a silly nonsense type movie - and it didn't cost me anything.

11:21 pm

good job doxy!

11:21 pm

way to go doxy

11:21 pm

Yayyyy for doxy!!!!

11:21 pm

Yay Doxy!!!! %*%*%*%fireworks*% *%*%*%

11:22 pm

Go Doxy - for both of us. I got so sidetracked reading the log that I forgot there was a puzzle!

11:22 pm

Thank you, thank you *taking a bow*

11:22 pm

with plenty of time to spare, even!!!

11:22 pm

Nope, she's sleeping now (like I should be...) on the A's, finally! I'll check my stats in a minute. I know I'm missing some already: la 6/21, (3rd one), and the la 4/4 right after; sa 6/27; and a bunch of sh's (not the stinky ones, though!)

11:22 pm

11:23 pm

sometimes i like the cheesy movies- takes my mind off other things- and i can always laugh that someone actually paid big bucks to make the movie- oh, the joys of life ;)

11:23 pm

?

11:23 pm

mas -- that's another T-shirt! "I would've finished if the chat hadn't been so absorbing!"

11:23 pm

GW, I have an acronym for those kind of shows: TSTW: too stupid to watch!

11:23 pm

this was a fast one for me, considering I worked today. I usually don't get to finish these "long" ones when i work.

11:24 pm

that is a fun topic....making up tee shirt titles "I pluralized and all I got was this lousy tee shirt!"

11:24 pm

Now it's guilty pleasure admittance time -- I will most likely get sucked into watching it when it hits cable ;D

11:25 pm

"Fish...it's not just for eating..."

11:25 pm

i agree - with beebee and JBS.... I watched the second Harry Potter movie this afternoon - enjoyed that one much more. I never watch TV normally, but because of being off work and being sick.... decided to watch a couple movies....

11:25 pm

The chat is faster than entering words!

11:25 pm

I have no desire to see that one. My hubby and I usually go see a movie every week. It's our date night. Well, at least out of the house together.

11:25 pm

la 6/21 take the la4 before it and add what the stinky s's start with

11:25 pm

Hey folks... have you heard about the millionaire who married a dolphin!?!

11:25 pm

The Harry Potter movies are a kick. I'm looking forward to dragging someone to the theater to see Narnia

11:26 pm

Or like the chapter for GW's book.... "one fish, two fish, red fish, plural fish"

11:26 pm

GW...go on... no I haven't...

11:26 pm

missy, i'll go with you.

11:26 pm

lol Mama clever!

11:27 pm

sa 7/32?

11:27 pm

la 4/4- you do la** in the pool- change the 3rd letter to a t

11:27 pm

here's the link -- apparently it did make national news, but since I don't watch the news, I missed it http://www.ynetnews.com/ar ticles/0,7340,L-3191923,00.htm l

11:27 pm

doxy! Alright. No one else around here likes adventure/fantasy/comedy/drama /whatever movies so I either go alone or wait until it comes out on DVD

11:28 pm

take me, MissyMe!!!!!!!!!! (and doxy)!! I'll buy popcorn!

11:28 pm

GW - I thought you were beginning a joke????

11:28 pm

sa6/27 take the sa4/7(secure) and make it the most it can be

11:28 pm

there have been a few movies that my hubby wouldn't go to with me, so I went alone. Sat there with my popcorn and diet coke and enjoyed every minute of it.

11:29 pm

Hmm, got that la 4/4, must be the 4/8. Checking stats now, processing, please wait

11:29 pm

finally back from the mall....8)

11:29 pm

Oh, loved the Narnia movie! Definitely worth the $10, GWoulf!

11:30 pm

Mama -- I wish I were joking

11:30 pm

hey ren

11:30 pm

queen barbie.....funky barbie

11:30 pm

11:30 pm

Mama...great :) Ill supply all the candy in my purse to save us some cash GW...that story...it is....CWAZY like a lune!!! and she's (and I quote)..."not a pervert" lol!

11:30 pm

oh yeah....groovy barbie!!!!

11:30 pm

Thanks, beebee! Got it!

11:30 pm

this world is one bizarre place

11:31 pm

Hi ren!! (*hug*) JB -- I would love to see Narnia but with the baby due in 4 weeks, I don't think we'll get the chance :(

11:31 pm

NINE WORDS LEFT!!!!!

11:31 pm

go jb go

11:31 pm

Ren, are you back after an absence or have you been working on the puzzle this whole time?

11:31 pm

and I have to get up at 5am, yikes! Vacation is OVER, folks. (sad face)

11:31 pm

wait until it comes out on DVD, GW and you can watch it one night during the 2am feeding!!!!! LOL

11:31 pm

JB go go go :)

11:32 pm

hey ((wolf))

11:32 pm

jb- i'm sorry- call in sick -haha

11:32 pm

ren, cool barbie

11:33 pm

It'll be a good rental, too, GW, but there's nothing like seeing a movie for the first time on the BIG screen. Congrats on the upcoming arrival! Another Babbler, perhaps? Okay, gotta get cranking on those last 9...

11:33 pm

missy - i've been at the mall shopping....dining...and i will not do anything else tonight except sleep.... 8(

11:33 pm

JB yeah my son just poked his head in the door to remind me to make his lunch for him for tomorrow

11:33 pm

Can't ren, I have TOO much to do this week, lots of deadlines!

11:33 pm

did anyone see history of violence? it didn't come to theaters here- i'm waiting for dvd

11:33 pm

JB -- which sh's do you need?

11:34 pm

Ren well I hope it is sound, restful sleep for you...wake up tomorrow refreshed :)

11:34 pm

or which do you have, if that is easier?

11:34 pm

no I did not beebee......

11:35 pm

beebee No I didn't and are they kidding? How the heck did they fit in the complete history of man from his first inception, whenever that was?

11:35 pm

nite all :O

11:35 pm

beebee, i did. it was good. Bloody, but good story about brothers sticking together.

11:35 pm

nite ren- sweet dreams

11:35 pm

JBs - deadlines are evil... I think that's partly why I am sick.... worked too many hours and was run down and very vulnerable.

11:35 pm

G'Nite Ren -- see you tomorrow Sweet Dreams (*HUG*)

11:36 pm

Could use some help on the last few st 5/12's. I have not fresh, and entries. What else is there?

11:37 pm

sh 4/5' this is a bunch of lady-type females called sh**

11:37 pm

Missing sh 6/21 as well Nite, ren!

11:37 pm

doxy- i thought it would be good, but you never know- but, even it sucks- viggo is fine- so, that'll make up for it

11:37 pm

jb, do you have the one similar to a work meaning ready to pick ri**

11:38 pm

Yup, got that one, doxy!

11:38 pm

that would be either the plural of the female pronoun or the front of the lower leg

11:38 pm

good nite all..... I will be tempted to wait until the flip if I stay and I really should be sleeping...... have a good nite *hugs to all* and sweet dreeeeemmmmmmzzzzzz... and thank you all for the birthday wishes!!!

11:39 pm

sh6 - plural of sh5 meaning a young pig.

11:39 pm

nite mamabear. Feel better soon.

11:39 pm

Nite, MBear, Happy Birthday wishes and hope you feel better!

11:39 pm

Sleep well tonight MAMABEAR

11:40 pm

nite mama- sleep well- i'll see tomorrow/today- hope you feel better

11:40 pm

Also need the last sh 5/12. Got those you mentioned, GW.

11:40 pm

Mama -- go get some well deserved rest -- we'll be here for you tomorrow (*HUG*) Peaceful Rest and Recuperative Slumber I wish unto you :)

11:40 pm

st 5/12 if you got st4/4 which sounds like the snake called a *** constrictor...the next two words that follow are forms of it with the first being a two-vowel ending and the second being the usual plural ending the last st5/10 means like a very strong or st*** beer, as an example...

11:40 pm

went and saw "The Producers" this last weekend. Very funny.

11:41 pm

goof- st 4/4 st+2 vowels

11:41 pm

Hi Everyone -- just checking to see if the game was back up -- doesn't look like Dr. G did his repair work after all?

11:41 pm

Mama bear Please rest, hon...keep off your feet and only get up to drink liquids and other necessitieis. Be well! ((((((mamabear))))))

11:42 pm

beebee -- I don't know about you, but my intro to Viggo was as Satan in the movie Prophecy, a role he portryed wonderfully, but ever since then, I can't really see him as anything else -- made watching Lord of the Rings interesting :D

11:42 pm

cybernan Hi We're thinking he didn't because the warning is still up

11:42 pm

jb - do you have what you wear on your feet?

11:42 pm

doxy, would that be...shuckling? (hee hee) (sorry, I'm punchy!)

11:42 pm

hi cybernan

11:43 pm

Thanks, I have the st's now! (P.S. It's ME! harpjane!)

11:43 pm

Mamabear -- I gather you're under the weather -- hope you're feeling better really soon. *hugs*

11:43 pm

goof- when you get that st- you have 3 that build from it st5/10- add a vowel to the end st5/10 st4+plural st5/10 st4 +the 2nd letter of the word

11:43 pm

GW looking back and now realize he was Satan in that movie...and here I forgot that!!!

11:43 pm

hey goofball AKA harpjane

11:43 pm

JB - last sh5 is plural of the sh4 -- as in sh** of whiskey

11:44 pm

harp- why did you change your name? incognitio?

11:44 pm

Yup, I haven't been wearing them most of my vacation. Comfy slippers for me!

11:44 pm

lol Hi harpjane

11:44 pm

Hi doxy1

11:44 pm

Hi C-nan!! (*hug*)

11:45 pm

Hi doxy1

11:45 pm

Hi GW

11:45 pm

Missy - as I said I can't forget him -- he had such a minor role and he stole the show!

11:45 pm

gw- i don't think i saw it, but i remember him the "patheic" gi jane- but, i came to love him in the unrealistic and totally fiction hidlago

11:46 pm

I'm only goof ball when I don't have time to chat. Just got back from 3 days of skiing and I knew I wasn't going to have much time to babble.....

11:46 pm

hey cyber

11:46 pm

I just ordered a foot pad warmer for my internet fun during these cold winter nights :)

11:46 pm

jb- did you finish?

11:46 pm

Hello again, beebee -- you finished?

11:47 pm

5 words left 1 ho 5/12, 2 L's: La 6/21, La 4/4 (next to each other in list), and 2 T's: which ones, I have no idea yet! Checking...

11:47 pm

I just noticed that Dr. God is going to shut down at 8:00 pm Jan 3rd. For reals.

11:47 pm

harp- i see hiding from your babble family- i wonder if that would work with my real family lol

11:47 pm

beebee -- Prophecy is a fun flick -- it moves a bit slow in places, but the overall story is intriguing -- SciFi Channel shows it fairly often

11:47 pm

cyber- i did- how about you?

11:48 pm

If you change your name to goofball they will be glad to ignore you.

11:48 pm

el 7/28?

11:48 pm

ta 5/10, 2nd one?

11:49 pm

GW I'm trying to think of the movie I saw recently, (Stepford Wives), where this gay guy had a t-shirt with Viggo's picture on it but when I see Viggo now all I can think about is that funny scene where the t-shirt was found

11:49 pm

ta5/10 -- multiple stories

11:49 pm

help, help, please! only 15 minutes left, yikes!

11:50 pm

el 7/28 type of plastic but be sure to put the right suffix "in" with it :)

11:50 pm

ho 5/12 it's either the thing water comes out (plural) or the party was great, you're a great ho**+vowel

11:50 pm

JB -- deep breathes -- in -- out-- you have plenty of time -- I should know -- been in the hot seat more often than not myself :D

11:51 pm

Missyme-good clue. Thanks!

11:51 pm

Coming up on 9 minutes!

11:51 pm

la6/21 -- lat + the self*** person ending

11:51 pm

youre welcome Jane :)

11:52 pm

la4/4 -- plural the 1st 3 I just gave

11:52 pm

la 6-(you're la** for a very important date) change the last vowel to an i and add what poo(sh**) starts with la 4/4 take off what poo starts with

11:52 pm

Thanks, GW! I won't be la 6/21 on this puzzle, I hope!

11:53 pm

Just saw the change in the good doctor's notice --- Murphy's Law says that the next grid will be huuuuge!

11:53 pm

don't you just love a good"ish" ending? :)

11:53 pm

I hope so! I love big boards.

11:54 pm

Then it won't hurt me too much if it is huge, C-nan -- I have promised myself that I will give the HUGE grids a bye from now on -- they eat too much of my time :)

11:54 pm

Dr God...I know you're watching...you always are LOL on your warning !!!

11:54 pm

I don't think the law says that you have to finish, GW!

11:55 pm

GW I remember the huge one I did...it did, indeed take up too much time :(

11:55 pm

jb and harp/goof- how y'all doing?

11:56 pm

3 words left GW, you're a ho 5/12 with the mosta!

11:56 pm

I'm good, thanks. Think I'll go slip into something more visible!

11:56 pm

Yeah, I know, but every now and then, I have trouble practicing what I preach re: just having fun -- I get caught up in the whole turn the grid grey thing! :D

11:56 pm

gw- can i get prophecy on dvd? who else is in it- maybe it'll jar my memory

11:56 pm

jane lol

11:57 pm

beebee -- I think so -- it had Christopher Walken as the archangel Gabriel and Eric Stoltz as another angel -- forget which one :)

11:57 pm

beebee if I can get the Forbidden Planet on DVD I'm sure you can get Prophesy...every movie ever made comes on DVD now...yet another money make for those poor hurting folks in Holliweird :)

11:58 pm

beebee, I think it is on DVD. It is in the scifi area of the rental stores.

11:58 pm

I love Christopher Walken's acting style...just amazing. When he's on camera I'm completely focused on him

11:59 pm

cool thanks- i love some christopher walken too- but, not so much in the last 5 years

11:59 pm

Hello!

11:59 pm

He's a funny guy. I'll never forget him as Bruce Dickenson in the SNL "More Cowbell" skit.

11:59 pm

I love the dig at Walken that they did on the Simpsons :D

11:59 pm

there is an older film (70's) that is called Prophecy also. It is about a lumber mill that is poisoning the water and animals being born deformed.

11:59 pm

Well, I'm just gonna FLIP! because I'm lost between the 2 t's and one L I've got left...

11:59 pm

well hello HARP- nice to see you

11:59 pm

beebee as with all great actors...they play in stinkers once in a while :)

12:00 am

I love that movie GW, Prophecy, well I love Christopher Walken

12:00 am

12:00 am
