12:20 am

hula girl -- there are advantages to upgrading -- you get a stats board that shows how many words you have left and which tile they begin with. Another very valuable tool is the 2 letter word list posted by one of our players, usually within 4 hours of the game's beginning. To find it, click on Babblers Anon. (under friends of babble on this page), general tab, stats (posted by Brandyjack) and scroll down. Don't know if the stats for Dec. 5 are posted yet, though.

12:21 am

found a few more - top row grey - one h left...

12:21 am

ah, got it. that's better.

12:22 am

83 and got that j7 debs was mentioning - no more clues debs dear?

12:24 am

co 7/32

12:25 am

I'm at 83 too. I have the J and also a oo6/27 and oo7/40 combo. Definition: A cell from which an egg or ovum develops by meiosis.

12:26 am

And please excuse me if it seems too early to give clues, but this puzzle looks rough, and I figure the sooner the better.

12:27 am

what? was a clue given for the j7 and I missed it/????

12:27 am

u 6/24

12:27 am

47 words here. If anyone feels they want to give clues, I may not read 'em, because I might be sleeping, but that doesn't mean I won't be back to read them later.

12:28 am

melissamay, thanx for the oo-oo's

12:28 am

j7 = one who j5's

12:28 am

Yoou're welcoome, chic.

12:31 am

They are connected in definition, Hurshy

12:32 am

hmmm, not uretic...

12:33 am

Actually, I'm not sure they are connected in definition. Ur 6 is alphabetically before the # 1 word.

1:13 am

I have 2 - 4 1-5 and 1- 7 J words

1:15 am

yeah me too blaze

1:18 am

Mr P -- my daughter-in-law had a luau for our 8 yr old granddaughter last year. Party favours included leis, they made some shell jewelry at the party -- she served a ham & pineapple pizza, with lots of fresh fruit (mangoes, papaya, etc.) on the side and a tropical punch to drink. The cake was a volcano cake (chocolate bundt cake with some dry ice in the centre).

1:18 am

1 C, I, J, and D, and 2 U's. this stinks.

1:18 am

Morning dear gang! MrP, my daughter just had her 8th birthday. We'll be taking her and her two best friends to Color Me Mine to decorate something of their own choosing. A week later we can pick it up, baked and all, and they'll have a memento of the event. Last year we had someone over to make bead colliers. Tremendous succes.

what wonderful ideas! Thank you! I now have the perfect idea... we will have a ceramic party, with a theme... summer theme might be nice! I can make a frangipani cake and give out chic sunglasses as party favouties!

1:23 am

sorry, don't mean to be grumpy. it would just be good to find them.

1:23 am

around here we have glamour shot parties. the little girls get to dress up, have their hair sone, and photos taken

1:24 am

mrP... can I come? :) Renfield, I'll remember that one for next year, sounds great too!

a photograph session! Perfect for little girls!! That sounds great too!

Sprite, you are welcome anytime!!

so what should a father give an 8 year old daughter for her birthday? Mr P wants me to do well on this one.

1:25 am

oh well, i will just have to get the last 30 in the daytime.

1:25 am

a great book to read together..... or a series

1:28 am

Sleep well then, hurshy :) We gave our daughter stuff to paint with. A small easle that can be set up on any table or bureau, paint, brushes, painting knifes, palette and er... don't know the word, the fabric things you paint on. Different people brought different items and together it became a wonderful complete set.

1:28 am

Ooh...just monkey-typed the missing j. It's been in the puzzles before--it's a Chinese coin.

1:28 am

Book... books are always nice!

1:28 am

My granddaughters really liked the "Totally Me" Scrapbooking kits (from Toys R Us) that they got for Christmas.

1:30 am

colored pens, fancy bookbag, drawing paper

1:30 am

50 is a nice round number to leave for tomorrow, so I am off to my bed. Good night, all :)

thanks! she really wanted the book based on Naria - the w w and w - so shes got that

1:31 am

could I have the second letter for that darn chinese coin I may have it but not sure stil need one more

1:31 am

Night nan! Oh yes, the Narnia thing, great idea.

1:32 am

The second letter on the coin is "i"

1:32 am

The coin is mostly vowels.

1:33 am

Jan thank you big....

1:34 am

Not at all, Blaze. BTW, did you get a lot of wind today? We had our power out for a while this afternoon.

1:35 am

Yes, but only for about 1/2 an hour or so.... a few blips too... seems to be settled down now.... where abouts are you again??

1:36 am

I'm in Seattle...

1:37 am

I remeber now... so many to keep track of.... we are a little protected where we live... but lots of power outages.... it's the intersections that are the worst of course... seems people forget how to deal with a flashing red light.... duh

1:39 am

Just to get it out of my system: 'hyacinth' is NOT in this grid.

1:39 am

NOr dullard

1:40 am

Hm, no, it isn't, you are right. :)

1:41 am

Hy

1:41 am

hyacinths would be nice to remind us that spring is coming real soon

1:43 am

Actually, I spotted the first two crocuses in my back yard yesterday...

1:43 am

I couldn't agree more. But in our garden we have snowdrops now. Spring IS coming!

1:43 am

oh that is a good sign

1:44 am

In sunny So. Calif. I still have tomatoes in the garden from the summer planting. I think we are going to pass on fall and winter this year!!!!

1:45 am

Dalmatian, wouldn't that be wonderful! I might consider emigrating.

1:45 am

i have pears on my pear trees and roses blooming - we never have winter...8(

1:45 am

Actually, believe it or not, we miss the rain.

1:46 am

I have a good friend who just moved to Houston. He says the bugs are huge. The rain is warm. And, the sunsets are beautiful.

1:46 am

Dalmatian, you can have some of ours. As much as you like, actually. You know... you can have the lot! :)

1:47 am

Thanks, pass it on over.

1:48 am

*performs very enthusiastic and feverish anti-raindance*

1:49 am

dal - right about the bugs...and the sunsets are beautiful...big red ball that tunns the sky pink and orange...never ceases to amaze me...

1:49 am

Thanks! I'll be watching and wishing.

1:55 am

Leaving 48 for tomorrow... see you then

1:56 am

Bye Blaze, sleep well!

1:59 am

bye ruthy see u at dads:)

7:10 am

Good morning! Been lurking and listening to the rain for a while. 35 left to go and not an inkling in sight. Big decision of the morning is whether to call the guy who sands our driveway or not. Vermont obsession with weather-if it stays warm all day then the remaining ice might melt down to dirt which would be wonderful. If it drops while still raining then we will have several hundred feet of downhill luge run. Think I'll save the money, wait it out, but move the car down to the bottom of the driveway while th going is still relatively good. But the Yak Traks on my boots and hike back up. I know you were all fascinated by that but you were really helpful!

7:12 am

Eva, I'm about to suggest Ark Building 101 to my family.

7:13 am

LOL Eva!!! Just what I was going to say - move the car down the hill and if it does freeze you can lie on tin tray and slide down to it. Put a couple of hay bales at the bottom and voila!

7:15 am

right-from what I remember you are on somewhate lower ground....do you need to worry about flooding? luckily don't need to go further than the bottom of the road today, to get tortilla chips for nachos for the community superbowl potluck at my neighbor's house tonight. Most of us don't actually watch the game, but its a good excuse for company & food and teasing the few diehards who sit glued to the set.

7:17 am

Eva....it's good to share and anyway that little passage took me away from my 'issues' this fine Sunday morning and allowed me to visualize another life far away....which sounded a darn site more interesting than my girls raiding the kitchen...lol

7:17 am

FMitch-the solution to Vermont's no-snow financial woes- opening all our driveways for hire for ice/tray sledding! Do you want to sign on as the director of tray rentals?

7:18 am

No concern of flooding here. Don't you hate that the super bowl is on so late on a Sunday nite? I'm not a big fan; but, any excuse for a party ^_^

7:19 am

Would love that job, just throught of a side line - 10 pin bowlling using person on tin tray instead of ball.

7:19 am

tbear-thanks for the reassurance re being boring. And yes, I love hearing about the different places and lives others are living. Someone elses minutia (sp?) are some much better than one's own.

7:20 am

Who will be the pins?

7:20 am

Hey tbear (((hugs))) didn't see you come in.

7:21 am

snowmen for the pins LOL

7:24 am

right that's enough fun, back to the grid still ahve 44 words to find and I think it's time for BJs list, having just got at least 12 Oops in a row.

7:24 am

FMitch....hiya.....

7:24 am

Or human pinball-with bonus points for hitting crucial trees along the way down and living to tell the tale, and points lost for slowing one's descent by bouncing off the snow banks lining the driveway,and then there's the total wipeout of either bogging down in the ditch or shooting straight across the road at the bottom. I speak from experience with car, not tray.

7:25 am

tbear, who is the beautifully soulful/woeful woman in your icon?

7:26 am

my bitch...:)

7:26 am

LOL Eva, I on the next plane, sounds like great fun and of course I'll need to test the run out first :)

7:26 am

Eva....it's the famous Miyavi,fir Miyavi-Fans' birthday......and she's a he.......AAAAaaaagggghhhhh

7:27 am

oops that was for someone else out her I'm talking to....:)

7:30 am

Come on over FMitch! We'll sweep the ice down for you. Miyavi is a he?!!!

7:32 am

HAs anyone got either of the oo words, I am so stuck on them

7:36 am

FMitch, pinched from way down the log - Definition: A cell from which an egg or ovum develops by meiosis. Apparently, if you google it, it's the fourth one down!! lol. I got it from a2z

7:38 am

trotters, thanks for that I usually go through the log but must have missed that one, will go a' googling.

7:39 am

yep, the log is full of little gems but it's hard to find them amongst all the chat.

7:42 am

nailed those 2, we have definately had them before, just wish I could have remembered them. LOL.

7:45 am

Has anyone been having trouble accessing Play Babble through Mozilla Firefox?

7:47 am

sorry AMN, don't use firefox.

8:06 am

any clue for the co7/32 please

8:08 am

bury together tbear

8:19 am

AMN-yes, I've had trouble quite a few times recently

8:20 am

Can anyone help with my last r please, the re6, it's driving me nuts, I just can't find it. Am I being stupid or should I just take a break!!

8:22 am

re + h4/5 what you do with leftover food.

8:25 am

FMitch, thankyou and yes I was being stupid. Can't believe I didn't get that!!!

8:26 am

It's ok it's not just you - I only got if from a clue earlier today and slapped myself with the squid of stupidity straight after LOL

8:26 am

I've had lots of trouble with Babble in Firefox also

8:27 am

I've got a trout in the fridge, will go and slap myself

8:35 am

Trotters thx for yr clue re: co7 got distracted by real life and didn't thankyou......saying that I'm gunna look again but it didn't immediately spring to mind...!!

8:36 am

got it got it got it YAY thx again

8:38 am

I've just finished, those su's were a pig

8:39 am

WTG trotters!!! Oh I am so sinking to the babble depths. Have even tried a2z and still can't find the he5/14.

8:41 am

FMitch, just add a letter to the h4 before, past tense

8:42 am

..... you know that trout you had.... can you chuck it my way please? Doh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8:42 am

Trouts on its way - catch

8:43 am

FMitch three tins of pilchards coming your way.....ouch ouch ouch....... :)

8:43 am

missed the catch but got it straight in the face, thanks deserved that!!!

8:44 am

tbear!!! those hurt but at least I can have them on toast.

8:45 am

Took me ages to get the last 3 very easy he4's because I kept working with the top E. lol

8:45 am

You are going to smile when I tell you what is in the oven for late lunch today, Fish Pie - have been hankering after for ages think it's all the fish talk in babble that did it.

8:47 am

I'm off now folks to do mundane things, can I have the trout back please, its for dinner tonight. Bye

8:48 am

Sorry FMitch....trying to keep my temper with my 'babies' today so needed to let off steam....they were only virtual tins honey......lol

8:51 am

thats OK tbear, know you are having a rough time. HAve a virtual scream, you should feel better after that. trotter - trout carefully passed back intact, now wrapped in foil with whitewine, challots and herbs, just bake for 20-30 mins and serve with seasonal veg.

8:52 am

Trotters what time do you want me in Bolton....I only drink red wine tho????

8:53 am

FMitch might just have that virtual scream in a while......

8:55 am

No probs tbear, slides a large glass of rioja over to keep you going.

8:56 am

MMmmmmMMmmmmmmmmmmm wine AAAAAaaaaRRRRrGGGGGGGGGg kids

9:00 am

FMitch catch you later

9:01 am

TTFN tbear take care.

9:07 am

why you lot so sickly sweet to each other

9:31 am

why not?

9:35 am

hmmm, maybe nobody is left in the chat room

9:36 am

You are not alone!

9:36 am

{waves] Hi Hurshy, I"m here, just not awake.

9:36 am

wotcha, Hurshy :) I'm sort of here... on again, off again, kinda thing. Hi Haz, too.

9:36 am

Hi Mari - I have succumbed and paid my money to join

9:36 am

Good afternoon all.

9:37 am

well, while you're here, can you help me finish? i did all but thirty last night. i need a clue for ic7.

9:37 am

Hi just not communicating too well right now, trying to fnd the last few words

9:37 am

ic + consonant + su4/5 reversed.

9:38 am

ic7/36 add part of proper name for womb

9:38 am

got it, thanks!

9:40 am

and perhaps au6?

9:41 am

Hi all just poppedin for a few mins to say Happy Birthday to miyavi has she been in today ?

9:41 am

au 6/24 - au plus with reference to plus you and me

9:41 am

if you have the au5/12 above it, Hurshy, add a 'u' before the last letter.

9:42 am

a thousand thank yous

9:42 am

yw.... clue courtesy of Sha, earlier in the log, though.

9:46 am

I'm having a hard time with one of the su5 's ... I have the one resembeling fat, could someone clue me on the other? (and tell me if the 6 is plural, ta).

9:47 am

never mind, got it

9:49 am

si 5/12?

9:49 am

Hurshy - French for Mr, but minus the mon

9:50 am

ugh, i'm beating myself up over how many of these i think i ought to have gotten last night.

9:50 am

the su6/27 is a pledge or formal promise

9:52 am

Thanks, Haz... I actually had the 6, was just having a dense moment! (two if you count asking if the 's' word was plural, when it's the only 's' in the grid, lol).

9:53 am

Not to worry - dense moments happen to all of us!

9:54 am

*grins* yeah, apparently I like to have mine in a public forum ;)

9:55 am

LOL trish!!!!

9:56 am

argh, 2nd ta 5/12?

9:58 am

Haven't got either of them yet and I only have 14 words left to find urgh

9:59 am

ta5/12 black sticky substance put on roads + wedding vow... I **

9:59 am

Hey mac :)

9:59 am

Hi Trish

10:02 am

mac - is that clue for the 1st or 2nd 5/12?

10:02 am

The first ta5/12 means silent

10:02 am

second one

10:02 am

done, argh, i don't think i should start them at the flip, it makes me irritable.

10:03 am

and my icon, though extremely artificial looking, is making me want cake.

10:05 am

Trish 20 left to find here, how 'bout you?

10:06 am

ok, i've got some chocolate. i'll stop being grouchy now.

10:06 am

6, mac ... 4 re's, and a leftover h & t

10:07 am

Hello everyone! : )

10:07 am

trish - have you got an he 4 that sounds like throw?

10:07 am

lol, hurshy, if anything can substitute for the amount of sugar in bright pink cake, chocolate can.

10:07 am

nice Trish :)

10:07 am

hey lola!

10:09 am

Hi Lola :) Yeah, mac, but they're killing me. Hurshy... I don't think so... ?

10:10 am

trish - it sounds like an hu4 to throw

10:10 am

thanks for my last h, hurshy :)

10:13 am

let's see if i can guess the t as effectively - ta4 - like fortune telling cards but drop last letter? or perhaps ti5 - color with an extra letter in 4th position?

10:14 am

I can't seem to monkey the ja4 : (...please help??

10:14 am

LOL! Just did it! : D

10:14 am

They're all vowels, Lola

10:14 am

ja4 - add...add...the initials of the host of "lifestyles of the rich and famous"

10:15 am

oh shoot, and i was so proud of that clue

10:15 am

lol, no, got those hurshy... good guesses, but my last ones are usually the dumb, obvious ones (eg, I'm missing 3 of 4 re5s :/ )

10:16 am

Aww, thanks anyway haz and hurshy....great clues! : )

10:16 am

those re5's are not obvious: i assume you have the 12 then there's...sailing race minus the g to do one's shoelaces over again and same as that except change last vowel

10:17 am

ta 4/5 greek letters? or mexican food?

10:17 am

Trish Do you have the re5 that's... re + spanish aunt?

10:18 am

Okay, I cannot believe I didn't have the shoelace re, dear god! Thanks Hurshy & Mac, got them now :)

10:20 am

ic7 anyone? Hi Lola, long time no see!

10:21 am

Hey boysaway! Where you been?? : )

10:21 am

Playing in the background mostly

10:22 am

How's Anj these days?

10:22 am

c'mon trish, i'm dying of curiosity - which t is/was it?

su5/14 French word for south plus the short word that means alternatively

10:37 am

deeha - it's an expression "pull a so-and-so" means do something that they are well known for doing. and *i* am well known for asking for clues and then finding the words before anyone can give any.

10:38 am

Please help! I can't find an au5/12. I have the one which is one letter less than the au6 : )

Hi All - LOL Lotti - I've ironed today too! Hubby normally does it but he has decorating duties -so I've risked having awful head & neck pain tomorrow. It's so long since I did loads that I quite enjoyed it - but the novelty had worn off by the time I'd finished!

11:01 am

I'm done too, last 20 words took me as long as the rest of the bllomin grid.

LOL, Meg, I never iron. Just hang it up straight outta the dryer.

11:05 am

I've never got the hang of getting things out of the dryer before they're baked so I avoid it like the plague! I always had to spend hours dampening it all again to iron it! My best friend when I ironed was the spray waterbottle. Made everything iron nicely.

1:01 pm

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii mamabear

1:18 pm

From the stats how do you know how many points each word is worth ??? Help

1:19 pm

the second number - after the slash. four letter words are the points right off the tiles. five letter words, you double it. six, triple, etc.

1:21 pm

so like if you could get "tract" in this puzzle, which you can't, it would be 5/12 - because each letter is worth 1 except c which is worth 2, for a total of 6, which gets doubled to 12.

1:23 pm

get it, norma?

1:24 pm

Whoa steady Hurshy....the math teacher is beginning to show!!!! lol :)

1:25 pm

*blush*

1:25 pm

Thanks for your help, are all the words and values posted somewhere???

1:31 pm

1:47 pm

don't blame you harp, it's a painful thing, we all want to block it out

1:48 pm

Howsabout the in8 then hursh.....?

1:49 pm

you don't want to take two meds that have a bad in8

1:49 pm

I don't suppose you'd believe me if I said that I don't have a microwave? Or that I cook a fresh gourmet meal every night and take the leftovers to the food bank, so the idea of R*** leftovers is foreign to me?

1:50 pm

well you do realize what they do with the leftovers AT the food bank, at least - you don't suppose they make the homeless eat cold food all the time...

1:50 pm

ur 6/24, please?

1:50 pm

busted!

1:51 pm

hurshy just gave a clue for it, cybernan :)

1:51 pm

2:00 pm

Thanks to Hurshy......... I am done!

2:06 pm

am stuck and cant find any words

2:07 pm

how many have you got, mega?

2:12 pm

Mega -- when I'm stuck, I usually split my screen and paste Brandyjack's list into a spreadsheet, fill in the word I have and work from there.

2:13 pm

14 words am new to this game

2:14 pm

and, you are a boy, correct? have you ever taken karate or anything like that? one word is the name of the school where you go for that.

2:15 pm

Another tip: once you find a word try adding different prefixes and endings to it -- often you will come up with more words that way.

2:15 pm

ya i took karte but broke my ankle

2:15 pm

thanx cybernan

2:16 pm

but do you recall what the school was called?

2:16 pm

ok, have you found the person who seats you in a theater or at a wedding? us5.

2:17 pm

Done! Yay! Thank you all!

2:18 pm

Mega -- when you really love something, you ad*** it.

2:18 pm

done!

2:18 pm

congrats, harp!

2:19 pm

and mega- just set yourself a goal of finding a greater percent of the words each day - don't expect to finish the whole thing right away.

2:19 pm

puppybowl is showing on the dicovery channel one of the dogs is my teachers lol

2:20 pm

Mega do you have the ca that you draw from a deck?

2:20 pm

i got like 250 point and 27 words last time

2:20 pm

nope

2:21 pm

but since each puzzle has a different number of words, try keeping track of how many you get divided by how many there were that day.

2:21 pm

It takes a while to get used to the game -- don't give up. Pick one tile and keep looking around it until you find some words.

2:22 pm

Take the ca that you draw from a deck (it might be an ace or a jack) and change the last letter for another word.

2:25 pm

In fact you can get two more words by changing the last letter of the ca 4 plus a plural

2:25 pm

I'm off for my lunch and to watch the rest of the curling. Bye everyone, and thanks again, Hurshy :)

2:26 pm

Awww ((((*hugs*)))) for Ren too :D

3:01 pm

right babbler - thought we'd have a real blow-out!!!1

3:01 pm

thanks lotti...8)

3:02 pm

It varies Hurshy.....The further north you go, the colder it tends to be......like Scotland is normally the first to get the snow!!!

3:03 pm

only a couple of degrees or thereabouts, hurshy, When we talk of north and south, we're really only talking a couple of hundred miles, but cos of the way the land lies, and the sea around us, there's a big difference. The north tends to have damp cold, and the south drier cold. Would you agree, Lotti?

3:05 pm

Yeah, it does seem to be that way.

3:05 pm

Am I being sooo thiiick that I cannot get the oa5/10 or is it just the dinner wine!!! ...a teeny weeny help might not go amiss if anyone cares to offer pleeeaase...thank you, thank you ,thank you

oa5 - a slang term for a western movie.

3:07 pm

or think of a grain and add an ending as if of a person who does something

3:07 pm

3:13 pm

hurshy ...i have it now thanks to you

3:15 pm

You Brits will be happy to know that I'm going to an real English pub for fish and chips tonight. It's called Stoney's (in Wilmington, Delaware). Owned by a transplanted Londoner who used to be a record producer. He worked with the Rolling Stones, Spice Girls, etc. Has a platinum Stones record displayed in the bar.

3:17 pm

For you youngsters, "records" are those large round, black vinyl discs that you see in second-hand shops.

3:17 pm

Judi make sure you put salt and vinegar on them.....and ask the 'londoner' for eels

3:18 pm

does anyone have a clue for the last or ultimate re5/10....i have the re+neckwear...please

3:19 pm

do you have the "nuclear" one?

3:20 pm

Tbear - salt and vinegar are available. However, being yanks, we prefer tartar sauce and/or ketchup. With any luck, he'll have sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Everything he has is to die for.

3:20 pm

what are eels? Do you mean the fishy things???

3:21 pm

Judi......fill your boots.... Aknitter..yes

3:22 pm

you EAT them!!???!!!

3:22 pm

eels as in elvers

3:23 pm

Er, no eels (thank goodness). However, he does offer mushy peas, yorkshire pudding, and bangers and mash.

3:23 pm

GoBraves as far as i know i have'nt

3:23 pm

had to google elvers --- gross

3:24 pm

eels?????

3:24 pm

Aknitter....not personally....lol

3:24 pm

I've had sushi eel. How do you folks prepare them, Tbear?

3:25 pm

do you eat them like spaghetti? All I can think of is a seagull slurping them down head first and in one gulp

3:25 pm

anyone know the number of words in today's puzzle?

3:25 pm

But they are Londonium speciality

3:26 pm

braves there 149

3:26 pm

149 gobraves

3:26 pm

GoBraves 149

3:26 pm

149 today

3:26 pm

they get pretty big aknitter - in many parts of Asia and South America they are cut into round steaks along the lenth of the body and broiled or cooked into stews

3:26 pm

grazie all

3:27 pm

I say it again --- EEEEEEEUUUUUUU gross lol

3:27 pm

Hi all -- happy birthday, Miyavi fan!

3:27 pm

yeah, I'm with you on that one. I've seen people fishing for them in Louisiana and Mississippi even

3:28 pm

Yuk. I would think deep-frying eel would be the only way to go. Even then, I think I'd have to be starving to try it. Eel sushi was a dare ( and not a pleasant one).

3:28 pm

Hiya, can I get a clue for the re 6/21, please?

3:28 pm

what a microwave does well, chic

3:28 pm

Chic = warm it up again.

3:29 pm

i've eaten some pretty weird things but ... eel? Don't think so. When I was in Japan my host family used to like to slip in weird things and not tell me what they were until after I tried them UGH!

3:29 pm

Chic, it's what you do to warm something up again.

3:29 pm

what kind of eels? are they salt water, farm raised?

3:29 pm

re - he 4/5

3:29 pm

lots of octopi and squid probably

3:29 pm

I have to go get some dinner now, and be ready for my film. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIYA!!!!!!!! (((xxx))) hope you log in and check your messages!! Goodnight all, see you tomorrow, suited and booted for Full Evening Dress!! : D

MIyavi, your birth number 'personal' year beginning today is actual 13, so there you go. It's a numerology thing, actually turning into a 4 personal year --- a good year for material growth as well as spiritual. A year for building on your successes of the past 3 years. You go!

3:53 pm

Au contraire, Sandr, I wish to be older than I am so I can throw in the school stuff and get to Halajuku with my friends! (idealistic fool I am) and of course, once we get there, we'll be spotted as the rockers we are and get signed up to a record label and we'll tour Japan and I'll meet Miyavi and all the rest of my favourite bands, and, and, and... and then we'll all live haaappily ever after XD

6:54 pm

Finished at last, stopped to watch a 'Miss Marple' mystery, and you really have to concentrate. Not interested in the Superbowl, although it is showing on TV over here, but then I'm not interested in Soccer of Rugby either.

6:55 pm

thanks doxy

6:55 pm

6:55 pm

6:58 pm

If it's a big grid tomorrow, I'm not going to play. It's choir practice on Mondays so I'm out all evening. We are learning a new repertoire for a concert trip to Germany in April.

6:59 pm

6:59 pm

I'm jealous Ex. I wish I could go too.

7:01 pm

si5/12 and si5/10

7:02 pm

Hi All - Just checking in to see who pops in during half time --- I am busy sorting baby clothes to see if I need to buy anything -- SB on in background --- Loved the commercial for FedEx with the cavemen!! ROFL!! :D

7:02 pm

Hi Grey Woulf

7:03 pm

Hi everyone. I'm here but mostly watching football. Ex the trip to Germany sounds great. What are you singing?

7:03 pm

si5/12 - another with lots of vowels si5/10 - an Indian instrument

7:03 pm

hi grey woulf. when was the caveman commercial

7:03 pm

hi GW

7:03 pm

found the si5/10, too tired to finish,see you all tomorrow

7:04 pm

Hi kimmie -- it was on around the end of 1st qtr, I think

7:04 pm

hi wolfie!!!

7:04 pm

bye peri. see you tomorrow

7:04 pm

by peri hagn

7:04 pm

I loved the caveman commercial. Also thought the Dr. Seuss NFL commercial was great and the Burger King Whopperettes. The magic fridge is clever.

7:04 pm

darn i was indisposed at that time

7:04 pm

Hi peri -- bye peri (*hug*) Hi doxy -- how's the baby?

7:05 pm

finally sleeping in my arms. she has been awake most of the day and is very tired

7:06 pm

Musicmom-- so do you think they made a bad call on the TD? -- personally I think so (and remember my house is for the Steelers :) )

7:06 pm

and mommy is happy she is finally asleep

7:06 pm

kimmie -- are you the mommy?

7:07 pm

YES!! It was terrible. He had that ball tucked low and in the replay you could see him move it out after the play was blown dead. Oh well. 2 more quarters. Maybe that will fire up the Seahawks.

7:07 pm

GW, are you talking about the flag on the play?

7:07 pm

i am. i love it most of the time.

7:07 pm

Ben R went to our biggest rival college. No way can I root for him. <g> I only live four hours away from Pittsburgh.

7:07 pm

doxy -- yes -- to my uneducated eye - it looked like it had never passed the plane of the endzone

7:08 pm

Congratulations, kimmie! --- that's how I feel about my new son too ;D

7:08 pm

watching halftime show. does this guy never age?

7:09 pm

never...

7:09 pm

ty GW. It is hard because baby's dad has been away for a while and i think she just wants him and is afraid to fall asleep or she might miss him.

7:09 pm

Hi musicmom, we sing a broad selection of light to serious songs, show songs, Mozart & Bach, Carpenters, Abba, Phantom and Les Miserables

7:10 pm

ren must be a stones fan

7:10 pm

Nope I just told Greg these guys will be performing in wheelchairs. I think it is cool.

7:10 pm

doxy -- it's all the drugs -- they are pickled (lol)

7:10 pm

LOL

7:10 pm

no not really...i was once...he just runs and works out.

7:10 pm

lmao

7:11 pm

That is really cool Ex. Have a great rehearsal and trip.

7:12 pm

exwren, that sounds like such fun. lots of work, but fun

7:13 pm

So how is this grid? -- I haven't started yet -- I turned in after the flip and have not been online til now :)

7:14 pm

not too bad if you can concentrate.

7:14 pm

yes - it does take some concentration

7:15 pm

Then I will have to wait til later -- hard to concentrate with Kristianna insisting on her computer vids as well ;)

7:15 pm

evr1 keeps watching the game and/or commercials. i don't think i have found a word in 10 min.

7:15 pm

Can't really give a fair assessment since my attention has been divided since I sat down here.

7:16 pm

what do you need kimmie?

7:17 pm

all finished

7:17 pm

i only have 40 words so far i keep asking doxie for clues. she has the print out of the a-z

7:17 pm

7:18 pm

I have the 2 letter list. can't finish without it.

7:18 pm

and i keep looking at the tv

7:20 pm

doxy will brb.

7:20 pm

I probably should give up for tonight... between the SB, my 5 year old picking the longest fairy tale in history for her bedtime story and my older daughter wanting to have my input on her outfit for tomorrow (that never happens unless I want my attention elsewhere.) But I'm tenacious at best so I'm going to continue to press on.

7:21 pm

Which faerie tale?

7:21 pm

hagn mom. cu

7:23 pm

silly me--is there a game on? I've been skiing since church!

7:23 pm

Guhleesh - It's an Irish tale about a simple lad who rides with the fairies on All Hallow's Eve.

7:23 pm

It's a great story, but I was in the mood to read something shorter tonight. She loves it because it is full of princesses and horses. Her two fav. loves.

7:24 pm

I'll have to check that one out, MM -- I don't recognise it by name, but I am big into faerie tales of all cultures -- esp British Isles

7:25 pm

hey harpjane

7:25 pm

She picked it at the library. It had two criteria she looks for most - a horse on the front and a billion words on each page<G>

7:25 pm

musicmom, that sounds like a great book.

7:25 pm

I can empathise with you, mm -- Kristianna has hit the phase of asking for me to narrate faerie tales so she can sneak in staying up for an extra 5 mins :)

7:26 pm

Just a minute - I'll get the information from the cover. ...<walking across the room>

7:27 pm

The full title is Guleesh and the King of France's Daughter It is a Magic Lantern Fairy Tale book. Great illustrations in this one too.

7:27 pm

Thanks mm -- will definitely look it up at my library!

7:28 pm

well i gotta go. doxy put baby down and she is waking up. gotta feed her and get mself some dinner.

7:28 pm

Time for a late dinner here as well, kimmie Will be back later, everyone :) (*Hugs for all*)

7:29 pm

Bye guys. The game is almost back on.

7:30 pm

Have there been any wardrobe malfunctions or anything? I don't get the channel that carries the game.

7:30 pm

they played it safe this year. Had the Rolling Stones perform

7:31 pm

Nope just a really bad call on a challenged play.

7:32 pm

it's been really quite this afternoon. I think most people are watching the game. Steelers just scored a 75 yd TD

7:32 pm

A wardrobe malfunction for Mick? Who would notice?

7:33 pm

too true.

7:34 pm

game currently 14-3 steelers

7:34 pm

Who's ahead?

7:34 pm

7:58 pm

8:08 pm

smithchick, I'm with you!

8:08 pm

8:08 pm

8:09 pm

Happy Anniversary. I think watching football is a great way to spend an anniversary<sarcasm>

8:11 pm

co 4 + cross consonent + er

8:11 pm

ty all, new word for me. looked it up but there was no definition

8:12 pm

8:14 pm

I need some ta clues - anyone?

any ta in particular? i have a few

8:15 pm

10:14 pm

10:15 pm

se 5/12 = se + place wher horses or cars run = last letter

10:16 pm

mm - i thought you went to bed earlier...you get under those covers and go to sleep!!! 8)

10:19 pm

Hi everyone! Back to finally work on the grid :)

10:26 pm

can u give me a bit more hlp with them clues plz

10:27 pm

OK, the Seahawks lost, but it wasn't a blowout, and I am still proud of them.

10:28 pm

hey wolfie hey jojo...we're proud of you!

10:28 pm

Hey, JoJo -- it was a well fought battle -- though Kirsten and I both think that the very 1st Steelers TD should have been reversed when it was challenged

10:30 pm

can u give me a bit more hlp with them clues plz

10:31 pm

billie - si 5/10 = si + consonant that looks like a cross + 1st vowel + r

10:31 pm

hint on the 1st ur5? please?

10:31 pm

Woulfie: To be fair, I heard the description of what the white line means, and the Steelers did make the touchdown. All they had to do was touch the white line, which they did. However, the Boulwarre TD for Seahawks should have been TD, the Steeler guy touched him first, and then Boulwarre touched him back, that should have been pass interference by the Steelers. But what is, is what is, so be it.

10:33 pm

ur + 1st ,2nd & 3rd vowels +

10:33 pm

JoJo -- from how they explained it, the ball has to pass the line, not the player, but I agree with you on the other -- that is how it seemed to my extremely non sports savvy perspective

10:33 pm

Thank you ren :)

10:34 pm

y/w 8)

10:34 pm

okay, 5 to go, I'm giving it 5 more minutes - any help with the he 6/21, the first se 5/10, te 6/18 or the two ta 4/5's (I have the one that means speaking carefully) - thanks!!

10:35 pm

he 6/21 - the thing in your house that keeps you warm

10:36 pm

Woulfie: I thought, what I heard, was that all the player had to do was touch the white line, and I think the Steeler's did it. It was very obvious to me and my hubby, that the ref's were definitely for the Steelers, as everyone else in this country was. But, it is over, but am still poppin' my buttons for the Seahawks.

10:37 pm

se + consonant + 1st & 3rd vowel

10:37 pm

te + the last 3 letters of the se 5 i just gave made plural

10:38 pm

JoJo -- they did perform very well -- it seemed like they were feeling a bit nervous going in to halftime, bu they pulled out the stops and gave us a great show after :)

10:38 pm

OK, now I need the 1st ur6/24 :D

10:39 pm

ta 4/5 = mexican food in a curved shell w/ meat, cheese, lettuce & tomato ta 4/5 = ta + you and me

10:39 pm

Thx Woulfie, I think so too. Still going to the ticker tape ralley for them on Tuesday, when they come home. Thx for all your and Kirsten's support.

10:40 pm

ur 6 = ur + 1st, 2nd, & 5th vowels made plural

10:40 pm

Renfield, you are the best - NOW i can sleep peacefully. I've been staring at this grid so long . . . .thanks heaps! Gnite!

10:41 pm

u r welcome gum... sleep well 8)

10:41 pm

Thanks ren, my clever plan of asking only for the 5 backfired on me that time ;D

10:44 pm

i think we all tried that wolfie...8)

10:45 pm

i've lost an electronic file - i am in the process of going though my cd's....8(

10:45 pm

does any 1 have more clues for me ta 4/5 ta 5/12 ta 4/5

10:50 pm

Hi all! Who won superbowl... was it the Seattle group?

10:50 pm

ta 4/5 = mexican food - folded ftied shell filled w/ meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato ta 5 = word for bing late to class minus the y + hoop letter

10:51 pm

Hi mrp -- nope the Pittsburgh Steelers did it again

10:51 pm

mrp - the steelers won the game. it was a good foorball game.

10:51 pm

Mr. P: No my Seattle Seahawks lost. Am depressed, but will perk up in a few days. Thx for asking.

10:51 pm

10:52 pm

Oh... I understand this is their 4th or 5th superbowl win!! Wow!

10:54 pm

no wait. I need the last SE 5/10, sorry.

10:57 pm

se5/10 take the se4 above it and add 2nd vowel to the end

10:58 pm

se 5 = se + cross consonant + w/ latin ending (or 1st & 2nd vowels)

10:58 pm

Morning everyone, this is my 3rd attempt at this grid and I'm still stuck on the au6? Help?????!!!

10:59 pm

au6 take the last au5 and put a 'u' before the last letter

10:59 pm

thanks MP

11:00 pm

... or as lickety would say... 'shove a u in there'!

11:00 pm

Thanks ren, mrpres. JoJo, I'm so sorry your team didn't win and I hope you feel better about it soon. It must have been exciting anyway. But sad.

11:01 pm

y/w mab

11:01 pm

Night yall.

11:01 pm

su5/14?

11:01 pm

I have a little question.... about my name....

11:03 pm

ask away, mrp

11:03 pm

Mab: Thx. I am still proud of them, they fought a hard battle, no excuses, but the officiating stunk. But, we are where we are, and so, I will be good. Just a bit PO'd, about the officiating, but I guess that is just life.
