Morning dear gang :) *gives AngelSong a huge hug for the beau-ti-ful resources page* Thank you so much, Angel, it is great! And even more complete than last time I saw it. ((((AngelSong))))
morning all
cl 7/32 x 2
sprite, it gets updated regularly, as I find new resources! You should have yours by now. I sent it to you. Let me know if you like it.
Hello ruthy and sprite :)
cybernan - u mean ce 7/32 ???
no -- there are two cl 7/32's
Angel, see 12.14 am! I've got it and I don't like it, I LOVE it! :)
ok can't see it but ce 7 is plural of an act of preventing us access to info (much like our previous government)
W7/48
how many words?
sc 9/60
:) Sprite! I forgot which template I used, but if it may be the very one I used for my own resource page in the beginning. before it was ever online anywhere.
23 7's! holy cannoli
i'm hoping that like 20 of those 7's are plural 6's, right?
I got the one with the green waterdrops! Very pleasant background :)
probly
For our non pro friends: 199 total words 4-letter words: 68 5-letter words: 57 6-letter words: 46 7-letter words: 23 8-letter words: 3 9-letter words: 2
:) that one makes me think of a cool spring shower, Sprite. Were you able to make sense of the readmefirst file I sent?
Thanks
All the 7s I got so far are ending in -s
It was a perfectly clear readme file, even for a webpage-making-noob like me. Great work, Angel, in every way. I have the backups and all, and I will try to follow the instructions if there is an update of the page. Looks like a breeze :)
FYI, re7/32 doesn't end in "s"
S 8/45
if you have problems, just give a shout! I'm here to help.
You fit your nick, Angel ;)
bet there's a boatload of re's here too
oh, not bad, i only need 8 more R's
a metric boatload, in fact. (it's larger than a "standard" boatload)
lol
it's the wo's that get to me *sings wowowowowoooooo*
Lol grigs :)
W7/44
I did yours, Sprite, and Music Mom's yesterday after I finished the grid. Used two entirely different templates, and still got both of them done. Told you I'd do it this weekend, and I did!
As good as your word, Angel! Work to be proud of, the page looks so professional :)
sprite see my hint from 12;13
no! cello is not there!! stop stop stop silly hurshy brain
my brain keeps seeing secret :)
and sesterces!
co 7/32 x2
x2? I only saw one...
yep, two
yay :) found it
nor secrets -- don't know how many time I've thought I saw that one.
am7/36
As opposed to 'amor', which is definitely there. And still not valid.
I think the dam burst with this grid!
!!
good one, une -- hadn't even looked at the a's
*sobbing*
what's the matter, hurshy?
too...many...long...words...
mrp's lovely tick box stats list is up, and it's current.
bbbut, i wanna do it myself... only i'm DUUUUUMMMMB
too early to look at a list, I think!
Has anyone found the other 9 yet?
hello fellow babblers. how is everyone this fine evening? it's a cold night here...ready for spring. looks like a puzzle i won't be finishing tonight for sure. but still a fun one.
sc9 and er9
co 7/36 (don't know if it's been posted yet)
you folks enjoy rubbing it in, don't you... you know hurshy is bad at the long 'uns...
I love this grid -- no ae's!
I can't find the er 9, if it's any consolation, Hurshy.
i have no 8's or 9's and missing 10 of the 7's :(
I forsee many em, en, re, and co words = too many prefixes.
I only have 13 7's as well.
ooh ooh got the sc9
My spirit guides, Jane and Rock, tell me so.
I
It says there's 13 4-letter words, but I've found 22... Hmmm...
68 4 letter words
no, there are 68
68 4-ltr words, Kevin
the ce words are killing me... I can not for life of me find all the 4 letter ones.
Then you should have the 8 as well, Hurshy
all the c's are killing me, i need 17 more!
i'm new to this. not sure i'm ever sleeping again...
68 4-letter words. 57 5's 46 6s 23 7s 3 8s 2 9s
Smogqueen, that's a distinct possibility! This game is way too addictive :)
120 words and 1:00am . . . off to bed--later, babblers!
stats are in bab anon
i have 150 but i want more!
i need the third m off the bottom left m, i have the jabberwocky ones
is there an my?
do you have the mor.. words?
jabberwocky?
yep, my5
Hurshy -- do you have ma 4/7?
points on the my, une? cnan - doesn't come off that m
cybernan - food ingredient - ketchup, mustard and ??
andy, she knows, she was trying to help me :)
jabberwocky uses mo4 ;)
golly, there aren't that many my combinations but i cannot find it!!!
the my word is a medical term
i'm not so up on medical terms... except if they use them on ER...
ooh, got it
hello pretty grey box
thanks, 13
still don't understand the jaberwocky bit!
lots of med terms use greek or latin endings, so if you know the medical term for a couple diseases, you should knw the ending of this word
its a poem by lewis carrol
theres a word from "jabberwocky" in this puzzle?
twas brillig and the slithey toves did gyre and gimbol in the wabe all mimsey were the borogroves and the mo4 raths outgrabe
lots of made up words from that poem have seemingly made their way into the english language :)
i know the rest but i don't want to be a nuisance...
sounds and looks like greek to me!! -- monkey typed the words at any rate.
i had to memorize that poem for school!
hmph, the y is not placed conveniently
it looks *nothing* like greek :)
have 9 black boxes now -- everyone keeps saying grey, but they are black on my screen.
counting the 0's, cnan?
theyre purpley grey
get a better monitor :o
Not one word in the entire verse you just quoted has any meaning for me!
"and" "the" - don't exaggerate, dear :)
I'm insulted -- no 0's included!
"and the" has no meaning?
and i was only saying that the form of the words is very unlike the forms of greek words - i took greek in college
then i have the same number of grey boxes as you!
well, if we're going to get picky, other than prepositions and conjunctions.
ok, clue on er9, maybe?
yes, I could use one too!
ooo -- just found the j
i'm really curious bout this am7, too
er9 has to do with my penis when i play this game...
i don't see how that can be true. and, we do not talk that way here.
am7 is what you all may do to me for that comment hehe
am7 - fines/penalties.
i know amortise, is it related to that?
10 black squares, 140 words, and time for bed -- good night all --- I'm sure I'll see some of you in the morning :)
i have 10 also!!
I don't think so. Every city/town has a Chamber of Co******. This is am + the last part of that word plural. If that makes any sense.
dianne, where did you go?
oh, thanks :) cross posted there :)
11!
Thanks!
these dratted c's! how can there be so many?
I am doing so badly with this one. What's wrong with me today?
i have 160 words but the last 39 seem very hard
only 4 more 4's
Is there a way to see the current scores of other players? Preferably compared to mine?
no, but you can ask :)
does anyone have the en8? could use a clue...
Sudoku done for today :) I love that new site, it is so much fun! Now for some more word hunting.
or es 7/32?
This is a sneaky puzzle.
hurshy es7/32 the very fiber of something
es/7 is the plural of es/6
thankee. now i just need that en8 to finish off the e's.
en8 = to enchant; bewitch
I've not done a sudoku. Is the basis math, or is it more logic? Can one learn to do them, or is it something you need the knack for?
logic. can learn.
Thanks. May read a bit about it.
ty gloop, how did you get all these?
wikipedia has a good explanation of suduko - just google wikipedia suduko
looking @ list of words... on angelsong's site --> Babble Enable List + A2Z Wordfinder.... then just some guessing hehe
oh, i see me just using noodle :(
i only have 87 words... i'm looking them up as u ask hehe
just gave in and got the list a few minutes ago
Thank you 1131331, will do so.
OH
flipping back and forth between the lists and the page is such a pain! also still don't understand en8 i must be dumb.
You see I have a gift for numbers.
lol mab anyone have the first 2 ne's?
I'm at 72 words, 879 points. How about the rest of you?
what's the total word count for this?
djget$ - think sorcerer...
169,2435
am at 96, 1523
which column does the en/8 start in?
total count is 199
71 words on my first night finding this site, but not giving up yet...
the fourth column
nest and nests
102/1246
131313 - 4th column
djget: how about if you copy the list on a document and then open it in a window seperate from the grid. Then you can look at both at the same time.
kevine - we don't post words in the chat, only give clues. and those are not the first two anyway
darn - thats where i've been looking :p
mab good call. gloop ty
You can have two or more windows open at the same time on the net..... just open seperately...make page narrow and you can get three or four on your screen...
found that word finally, ty
Ugh, I'm stuck at 199, too. This is so much harder than it looks.
alrighty, just 27 c's, r's, and s's to go
stuck at 199? that's all there are!
there are only 199 words to find
sorry. Won't happen again--newbie here.
hi all
i thought that the game told you when you solved it
hurshy what is that person doing in your georgia o'keefe? she would be so annoyed to know someone was walking around in her paintings.
no sorry.....
first cr 6/21?
only if you're a pro
Oh now I feel dumb. I was looking in the wrong spot. Um, stuck at 138. Thats even worse.
lol mab, it's a star wars movie poster
cr/6 - top of something - mountain, wave, bird
i'm new here... how exactly does one interpret the clues? help appreciated :)
131313, no first, not second 6/21 :)
and its a plural of a cr/5
ebtg the clues are starting letter..... up to two....ro number of letters 4 points 4 word clue would be a famour flower ro 4/4
EBTG: Cr6/21 means: there is a word starting with Cr, 6 letters long, worth 21 points.
And welcome to the newcomers!
Kevin and other new-co 6: if you click on Angelsong's Babble page listed at the right on the screen you'll find lots of useful info. Clicking on Links and then mrpresident's stats will give you a list of the first two letters of each word in the grid, etc.
hmm.. hard, very hard
Hello Sprite
i feel dumb coming here so late ... everything i ever learned about the internet i got from reading boingboing :P
my5 anyone? I want to get the whole bottom row grayed out :)
Hi Blaze :)
Thanks, Sprite :)
balker, just got it - ends like the spray cans that are bad for the ozone layer
My5: tumor composed of muscle tissue. Or my grandmother...but I don't think that grandmother word is the same in english, only dutch ;)
Sc9/60 been mentioned already?
got it! thanks.
yes indeedy sprite think everything long has
Hello =]
WHAT on earth is this other cr 7/32???
Okay, then I won't irritate anyone with 'new' ones anymore :)
sprite just mentioning it made it pop :)
Lol!
i mean i have the first FIVE letters, how hard can it be??
cr7/32 - they are the same except for the last letter.
i know but!!! ok i got it. i really thought i had tried them all
hurshy, crc? I don't know any other term :)
Occasional blind spots are perfectly normal for us babblers. I hope.
btw, it's not my fault I don't have a flag ;)
balker, was referring to an ae word...
gah, I wanted to use both o's in that one... thanks
test
I wonder why it won't show the danish flag, even if the gif is there: http://www.playbabble.com/flag s/denmark.gif
how much words do you have to get
?
199
Try refreshing balker, and when that doesn't work, send a message to Dr. G-d. He will fix.
do you see the flag? I tried switching to usa, and s+s showed up instantly.
79 words 1121 points first night, 2nd game. I think I'm retiring for the night.
found Sc9/60, wheee!!!
down to the wire, folks... 8 little s's
any clue for sc9/60?
it's a plural...
it sounded so simple when i said it...
roytang: A thickening or hardening of a body part, as of an artery, especially from excessive formation of fibrous interstitial tissue. google if this doesn't ring any bells.
lol ... roy it's a medical badness. has to do with hardening of like, for instance, arteries
83 words/ 1244---found sc9/60, as well!!!!!
oh mab you're so right by the book you could get a little creative
ah got it...I knew what the singular of that was...the plural form never popped into mind
thanks balker
sc9/60 IS medical, but has more to do with the neuromuscular systems, I believe.
Sorry djget, thought I would make it easy for new people? Something like that; but point well taken.
no mab, i get you totally...i was just ribbin you a little because we were both looking at the dictionary.com entry
DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
wow, everything *i* know about the internet is from boingboing too. i am really bad at this game.
Brava hurshy!!!!!!! This must be a new record for you! Amazing!
congrats hursh
only 66 words, at 951 points! aghhh....
Not to worry new people, we all were new at some point. Just enjoy. Do scan Angelsong's Babble page - link at right on screen - where you'll find lots of useful infomation.
just found le7/28 and ma6/36
Also, understand that hurshy and sprite are exceptional players of this game. Try not to compare yourself to anyone.
thanks, makes me feel better :) this is a great time waster at work btw
whee, 71 words, 1065 points! long way to go but: progress! thanks for the encouragement mab :)
Morning, or evening all, Is it a good grid today?
Morning FMitch ... enjoyable & swift so far (79 down... can't speak for the re4/4 of it, of course)
LOL thanks trish! *dives into grid head first*
Are there plans to add more features for Babble Pro users? It doesn't seem that much worth paying for to me just yet.
I don't think so Elf, the biggest bonus of being pro is the stats panel that shows how many words come from each tile and the overall breakdown. That is very useful when hunting for the last few elusive words.
anyone get the or5/12 & 6/21? I can't find/see it.
Wo6/33 +7/48 minus W
Evening Dianne, not yet I'm afraid. Still on the 1st run through.
((Sprite)) good to see you!
Of course - the fish ! Thanks sprite :)
Hi Fmitch. How are things? Hi sprite (belatedly) :)
Fine thanks Dianne, allowing myself an hour or so babble and then work :) (famous last words) LOL
Good morning all. At least it's the sort of grid where you could find lots of words in your allotted hour, FMitch1
that's what I said at 3pm (it's now 5:30). benn doing alittle of this, then a little work, then a little of this soon and so on.
LOL Haz, oh and ha ha re yr icon, very funny.
Howdy, Haz, Sprite & Dianne
Hi trish :)
Sorry guys, was on the phone, and typing the clue with one finger, lol. Hi to all, great to see you too! Done with the grid for today. It is fun, beautiful biggies that have actual meaning. And to the newcomers: never, ever feel intimidated or inferior compared to any of us. We all started out new here. We made more incredibly stupid mistakes and have had more blind spots than you can ever imagine. Will make and have more too. But with perseverance (kind word for stubbornness) I managed to become somehow experienced in this. ;) All those stupidhead little words that keep coming back will look familiar at some point. Some even come up in conversation. Ywis!
FMItch - sorry, I was distracted by the phone there. So glad you like the icon!
Well 139 words for 2163pts. I can't 'see' the last 60. I still have none of the 9s and just one of the 8s. Do you get penalized for blindly guessing?
this is my first game. looks like this will be very addictive. i have no idea how i'm going to find another 150 words...
No, no penalties. It sounds like it's time for you to use some help. Second letter lists are invaluable!
LOL Haz, I'm not that into rugby but other half is and was not a happy bunny, at least Arsenal won otherwise there would have been a full strop on at the w/e! El Payo - blindly guessing is what we call monkey typing and it is most definately allowed!
fortunately you do not get any penalty for guessing - most of us guess (monkey type) lots of words.
To access them, look under Friends of Babble on the right hand side of the page. Either click on Babbler's Anonymous, general, stats, for Brandyjack's list OR, Angelsong's Resource Page, Links, MrP's stats list.
Monkey Typing - that's great.
evilolive, it is a very addictive game and the more you play the more words you will find!
Have to pop out, but will be back later.
TTFN Haz
toodles, Haz.
anyone have the first mo 4/6?... i don't want to give it away but is this not an acronym? i thought those weren't allowed? does someone know the definition?
soft shoe.
hehe wth... is that some abbreviation?... thanks i guess
Good morning, everyone
oh it's on merriam-webster... i c... k thanks... never heard that before
Right that's my hour up, BBL
See you, FMitch
has anyone gooten any of the es words? I'm not having any luck with these.
Morning all. Thank goodness we have our s's back
es 7/32 .. the basic properties of something es 5/10 ... sounds like how the 'es' words start Hi ExWren :)
Hi wren - yes, just add an S to every word - it just might be a word :)
es 6/33 (+ plural) money or property held by a third person.
is everyone else seeing triple posts?
Not at the moment, El Payo, but it does occur sometimes.
trish - got the 1st two - so easy with your great clues. looking for the 3rd - thanks for the help.
my bad - refreshed the page and it went away
trish - I was thinking that word/s but kept looking down not over and down. Thanks again.
one es7 is the plural of es6 and the other es7 meanthe crucial elements
yw, Dianne... yes, we seem to have gone from having no S's at all, to having too many ways to use them, lol.
43 words left to find, time for a break... see you later, folkses :)
Hellow everyone =]
good morning
Hi, everyone!!!!!! I have returned.....
Good morning, Movieman.
Morning all! Well, after the S went on vacation for a few days, he's back with a vengeance now!
This grid is like a nudist camp...... There's a lot of r's in it.........
Groan.....
I have just found that there is something worse that re's.....it is sc's...I have taken half hour to find the sc4/7, but the rest are mysteries
Ex-wren - sc9/60 - think of MS and pluralise the S bit of it.
hi there- Im new and not sure if i understand how this works- am i making words like in scrabble- or is the letters supposed to be next to each other...
sc 5/12 - expression of derision
Jaen - the letters have to be next to each other as in boggle. If you need further info, look at Babble rules link at the top of the page.
hey wobbie
Jaen, they have to be next to each other. Top right you see Babble Rules, they should help.
hi guys! I'm exhausted and its only 11:27 - just had to drag dog down to the vets and back for the annual fight over injections!
Tell me you didn't fight the vet...
nope. just stood back adn watched vet and dog slug it out!
Well, that's a relief. Presumably if the dog has been injected, the vet won a technical victory?
I think so! though Holly did wee on the floor afterwards - so what do you reckon? dog 1 : vet 1?
Sounds like a draw to me!
can't say that i'd give the dog a point for piddling on the floor, myself...
Yup! At least that's over for another year!
oh you can when the dog smirks at the vet while doing it!
Oh, haven't you heard, Atalante. They say it's going to be recommended that injections are given once a month now. To come in line with EU policy...
Oh! dear Haz, I would have still been here next Monday without your help
Ex-Wren - glad I could help - and Atalante, I'm only joking!!!
dog owners have it easy... i am forced to crawl partially beneath the bed to get clawed and fought (and that's just before we get in the car to leave for the vet's).
plllllllllease tell me you're joking, Haz! I'm not going through all that once a month! I had to sit and listen to a staffy howl for 20 minutes! anyone got any nurofen?
I have one of those too, phess ....
I'm joking! Couldn't resist the temptation to put the wind up.
*giggles* can you IMAGINE! You'd never see your husband - he'd be sticking needles into bottoms all day and night!
It doesn't bear thinking about, does it?
no! its bad enough trying to understand all the rituals around EU pet passports
being a US citizen, if i were travelling with my pet, i'd be inclined to look into an injected RFID... dunno if they're going to do that, but since RFID's are in US passports now, who knows.
Yes, the rules are not exactly user-friendly.
RFID?
phess, it's not just the rabies aspect, there are anti-tick things to go through as well.
urf yes. your dog has to be up to date with rabies vaccs, and then no less than 24 or 48 hours (can't remember which) before re-entering the UK, they have to go to a vet to get anti-tick and mite stuff and get a check-over, then they go to the vets back here as well
how many words are there today??
199
Damn those re's:::I'll leave them until later, much later, then maybe I wont have time to finish
199
199
ricey - 199
can someone tell me how many biggies?
Amanda - 23 7's, 3 8's & 2 9's.......
Morning all. AmandaCath - 23 x 7s, 3 x 8s and 2 x 9s.
Jacula - I think you'll find it's afternoon now, this side of the pond, but hello anyway.......
hmmm - I've got the en8 and the sc9 - what do the other 8 & 9's start with?
Forgot to check the clock. LOL.
Hi again Can anyone help with a clue to the re7/32 please
...- -...
Mitch - you feel re7/32 when you've done something you shouldn't have, or to send a telegraph again
lovely clue amanda, thanks
YW - how bout the er7? From the log I got that it has something to do with a possible state of a part of the male anatomy, but I can't seem to get that into 7 letters...?
it's an er5 that builds (so to speak) to an er9, there is no er7
starts from the 2nd e on the top row.
I'm terribly sorry but ... what's all this or sc9, er7, re7/32 ... it's clearly lingo, but not one that a newbie, such as myself understands :D ...
got the 5 and 6, will see how much bigger it can get ... sorry, bad puns are so hard to resist!
re7/32 - is shorthand for a word that begins with re, has 7 letters and yields 32 points. These are reached by adding up the point value of the tiles used, and multiplied by 4. 5 letter words are doubled, 6 trebled and so on.
dramalho - it is a way of giving clues w/o typing the actual word . Do have a look at the link under friends of babble - Anglesongs Resources - it will explain a lot about how to play and what it's all about. :)
right, thanks Haz, think I got it now :)
Good, hope you enjoy the game.
I will Mitch ;) I can't keep missing 100 words like I've doing :) (actually this is my second puzzle, but what the heck ) :)
LOL amanda, try adding the n4/4 to the end of the 5. Hi again Haz - 18 left to find, how are you getting on?
duh! thanks Mitch - and pass the fish
Thanks, FMitch. I just made it bigger.:-))))
LOL Jac, love yr icon BTW
Thanks, FMitch. I dreamed about that dog last night. He's so cute. Haven't had a dog for some years now - still getting over the total trauma of taking my old one (who was 18) on his 'final journey'. Has anyone seen the Rainbow Bridge thing? I still weep buckets over that.
I dreamt about Hayden Christensen last night *grins muchly* then got woken up by the cat deciding to use my stomach as a trampoline ... just great ...
Atalante - the two cats who decided to adopt me in my dogless time get shut into the utility room at night. Their food, water and litter tray is in there. It's their bedroom.
VERY sensible. Mine stays well out of the way too - until husband manages to leave the bedroom door open at 5:30am as he staggers off to work ...
Well at 110 and getting nowhere, I am resorting to lists ... one of these days I'd like to finish a grid without them
Ah!!!!! amanda we can all dream of that, I too am working on the list (thank goodness for them)!!!!
BTW - Mr. Pres - your new tick-box list is fantastic!
111 here, Amanda. Sometimes, it helps to just stop looking for a while and go and do something else. When you return words just jump out at you. Works for me, anyway.
I see 'Tesco' is in the grid. They get everywhere, don't they? LOL.
stupid corporate advertising...
morning all can someone give a clue for the ce 6 pls
what is the icon suposed to be today? Seeing lots of different things but not sure what they all have in common
Sheryl - theme today is supposed to be fav childhood toy or game. I couldn't make my mind up so stuck with my usual one.
Good morning, all... Merry Spring to you! *dances joyfully around chat, strewing daisy petals*
Morning Jera and Merry Spring to you too :)
hello everyone....good to see you all : )
Not sure how long I will have as the littlies are home today...
think I best get the list or I will never get finished in time...95 to go and sort of stopped !!!
wow, a 60pt word !
I'm a bit stalled at 87 words, but thrilled to have just found ma5/16 (bet I can make it plural)!
Whoo-hoo! 88!
I keep wanting to put 'secret'....but it's not there (is it ?)....
Sheryl the ce6 is plural of ce4/5 - c*** pit
bernold there are 2 x 9/60 an er and an sc
Sorry, I'm a bit manic today...
no, but secrecy is
I keep wanting to put crescent!!
bearnold please don't post words in the log
ty amanda
*whispers to bearnold* Don't give away words like that... spoils the fun...
thank you amanda :)
Happycat, no secret... I also want to make sorcerer fit... lovely phantom words today...
5am in seattle
must be on the same wavelength Jera....I keep trying that too !!
lunch time here jetx
lunch time....whoa....must be europe?
centre of England jetx
I'm in a magical mood, for SOME reason...
jetx... cool name... anything to do with the kids cartoon block? My daughter loves those!
spring got to you jera ?
nice!....just babbling before work
That must be it... the kids are excited about planting seeds this afternoon...
One more word will tip me over the halfway mark... then I need to go clean the kitchen... everything STILL smells like corned beef & cabbage!
nope.....just my current net moniker
Jera- was the corned beef and cabbage in honour of St Patrick's day?
Yes... well, I don't care for him much but the kids wanted to celebrate anyway... so I let them cook it... good stuff. I usually wear green anyway, so that doesn't make the day special...
sometimes I go by jjetx or jettx or jetxx and so on....
doing corned beef filled jackets tonight !!!
I was amazed to discover that Americans think it's traditional Irish fare. I've never eaten it and don't know that it is served much here at all.
corned beef hash seems to be getting 'trendy'
Not being Irish, I really have no idea... I can handle a little pop culture... if it's not traditional Irish fare, wonder how it came to be part of St Pat's day tradition??
Yes, as is 'champ', long regarded as peasant fare here. It's now been elevated to a much higher status.
Just had corned beef hash for breakfast this morning! Hi all! :)
i had a pastrami sandwich during yesterdays babble session.
Morning, Jen.
thats it then Haz....its the American influence !! Hi Jen :)
It's pretty traditional Irish-American fare...
ok ...all this talk about food makes me want my lunch....see you later :)
Must take a break for lunch. See you later.
Aaaaaahhh! Irish-American... we just muddle up everything, don't we (Americans)? Always have to put our own spin on things... It's part of our charm! {{{JEN}}}
Bye, Haz & Karys!!
Interesting entry re corned beef in the wikipedia...
TTFN Haz and Karys. {{Jera}} How'd the cookie sale go? Sorry we didn't make it down! I pretty much finished the taxes but need to find info on claiming non-taxable VA disability benefits.
...corned beef serving as a substitute for Irish bacon
instead of a BLT you could have a CBLT sandwich
Yes, jetx... I never knew! Tha's okay, Jen... we sold about 30 boxes & were so cold we bailed on the second session... wasn't worth it! It's not like they will spoil or go to waste...
We will probably do another local Booth, then save them for Mayfest, back in Strasburg (we always go there & have a Girl Scout Booth). By then people have eaten all they bought & want more... plus the weather is better...
Isn't this weather wacky? They are predicting snow tomorrow! Happy spring, huh!
hi everyone!
Hi Temple.
Hey TO!
Good Mornig - Happy first day of Spring everyone :)
Woohoo 199 and done!! will be around for a while if clues needed. Hi everyone that's recently arrived.
Happt spring faerie! :)
Jen, I think Winter forgot about snow this year... we have that Thanksgiving snow (early), now this session in Spring! We only had one good, pretty, deep snow that got the kids out of school.
{{{FAERIE}}} Merry Spring!
FMitch - CONTRATULATIONS!!!! woot, woot, woot
congrats, fmitch!
Congrats, FMitch!! {{{TempleOwl}}} (your bird is in the grid, you know)
Faerie - I'm singing now: 'f I ruled the world Every day would be The first day of Spring Every heart would have A new song to sing And we'd sing of the joy Every morning would bring...'
Merry Spring Jera - love your little Faerie. I also have a faerie sitting my daisies
*~*~*~*~FIREWORKS FOR FMITCH*~*~*~*~
Thank you dear babblers :)
Really, faerie?? I must need to refresh... brb...
Ohhh Jacs - I love that song. I wish everyday could be spring also :)
VERY cute, faerie!! I tried to do some daisies, but all mine are bmps... so I decided to use my naked green ivy fairy
FMitch - hand over your word list and no one gets hurt. (holding daisie to stick up Mitchs nose)
She'd be a bit chilly, were it not for her magic...only 43 here now...
Jera-I just love faeries. And your litte girl is adorable. Where did you find her?
I hear that Jera it's 25 here. burrrrrr.
LOL faerie, I give up that tickles!!!!
LOL Mitch - your looking grand today (*_~)
Why thank you faerie! Think I might take a quick look at sudoku (glutton for punishment and all that).
Get ready folks we had a whole big bunch of newbies last night and several went pro. Some of the new babblers are afraid that we are going to have growing pains. Hopefully not.
omg woohoo! I've just confirmed my tickets to go to California and Oregon in a month to visit friends! I can Babble with a US flag for a bit!
FM-you must be - see ya later Hon.
Ata-how exciting have you ever been to the US?
Enjoy your trip, Atalante.
anyone have a hint for am 6/24?
faerie, got both sites up at the same time so can babble cat and do sudoku at the same time. Atalante - I am jealous, where in CA?
Faerie - There might be a little chaos and a few growing pains but I'm sure it will soon settle again.
...on hold with IRS... anyone wanna take bets as to how long I'll have to wait? :)
am6/24 is a fine imposed by a court.
Morning everyone :)
*or rather the punishment of being fined.
Hello Toes & 'bump'.
Just south of San Francisco - and then we're going to drive up to Oregon via Yosemite - I've gone one really good friend in SF and one in Portland so we're all zooming between the 2 places. And I've been there last year, but that was just to CA
{{{{Toes}}}} I found the perfect icon for you>>>going to fecth it right now brb
Faeriekae... sorry to leave you hanging... my son required more milk & he's not quite ready to serve himself... Not sure where I got my icon... I think I just did a search for fairy pics & this came up. Or it might be an allposter.com poster... they have a lovely fairy section there... I steal their stuff all the time!
((( Faerie ))) How are you hun? :) Oh a new icon?
Wow! Only on hold 7 minutes and already got my question answered! And it was a good answer!
refresh
*plays Final Jeopardy theme music for Jen on hold*
Whoo-hoo for Jen... that must be some kind of record (my music must have worked)!
Well, it's not that close to deadline time, so I guess no one is panicking yet. :)
Hurray for newbies! I love it when a site grows...
Jera - thats for the faerie info....will have to check out the posters...
aarghh! The first cr is eluding me - anyone?
ROFL! Fearie! lol That's awesome!
cr + 2nd vowel + spanish? for sun
ok ... thx mitch, got it. I would have thought that had an o in the middle - guess I was wrong!
LOL, Toes. Is 'Fearie' a scary faerie??
(We used to call my daughter The Hairy Fairy when she was a baby.):-)
ooooh typos lol
Jac, how are you doing today?
refresh - thought you might like that one toes...by the way how are you feeling?
Yay! Finished! Guess I'll have to do something productive now...

Good morning all, and welcome to all the newbies.
Morning chch :)
newbie here...thanks for the warm welcome...so 150 is a good number of words huh? I have a lot to learn...
or maybe ch12 LOL sorry...
welcome to the obsession oiee! 150 is very good for your 1st time! :)
It's okay, fairaekae, I answer to lots of things :)
So, "cors" is in the enable list, but isn't an acceptable word....... Hmmmmmm........
oiee-Welcome. Yes 150 is excellent. I believe there are 199 in todays grid.
MM-I also tried that one...lol
I'm at 47...I had heard someone say 150 is good.haha...didn't mean to imply I had 150. far from it.
oiee-I only have 66 so far...lol...looks like I'll be here for a while myself.
hiya!!!!
(((Bex))) Hi !
hi bex777!
Bex - hi!!!!!
Hi all! Finallt got a few free moments! They are few & far between recently!
Snowy - What's with the Etch-A-Sketch.......
Snowy - etch a sketch? Hi!
My, those w's were depressing...
Isn't today toys we liked when we were younger? I liked Etch a Sketch
{{{SNOWY}}}
Snowy - Today's theme is movie posters.......
Oh yes it is.....I just went with first day of spring. I still have an etch a sketch. lol
I think Snowy is correct movieman check out Babbler's handbag.
hi snowyowl... I like books -- books were (and are still) like friends in many ways. We moved around so much that one of the few constants was my books. So when I was trying to think of a favorite 'toy or game' I realized books would be it.
Hi Jera!!!!!!!! Have missed chatting with you all -but time has been one of the myriad things I haven't had lately!
ch1212 -I have to admit that they would probably have been my 1st choice too - but I loved the way the etch a sketch okked as an icon!
okked!!!? LOL Looked!
Okay, so the theme list has been updated (again)...... Ah well, better change my icon then..... BRB.......
Tower of Babel - Tower of Babble - my point exactly. I see a lot of writing here that has nothing to do with this game.
Godt - just a few friendly hellos with friends.
I think I say it everyday, but I'll say it again... I HATE re words!!!
Jen - ditto - me too
Ah!
Hello
Hello Luke :) Welcom to babble
I'm back, icon changed...... REFRESH!!!!!!!
hi luka
hi luka!!
does anyone know if the co 8/50 is related to the two 7/36 before it?
faerie, its the pl of the 7 before it
MM-good one...almost looks like rockem sockem robots.
The 1st cr6/21 plz.....
don't have that one yet Movieman.
Thanks Fmitch. got it now :)
It's the leader of the Autobots in "Transformers", Optimus Prime..... Always was a big Transformers fan......
no I don't the co 8/50 is plural of the co 7/36?
My son loved Transformers too MM
well movieman, they're more than meet the eye! :)
found to co 8/50 thanks you were right.....
co + e5/12 for the 7 and pl for the 8
glad you got it faerie, out posts crossed.
FM-I thought I had both 7/36's. duh. I do now.
anyone by any chance have the very 1st re5?
There are an awful lot of 7's in todays grid. And with all those s's dont forget to try to pl every word LOL.
No kidding I'm finding that out.
sorry I had to step away for a bit. busy day! monday :)
This is my first time at the game. What do you mean when you say there are lots of 7s?
There are 23 x 7 letter words to be found in the grid today and 199 words in total. HAve a look at Angelsongs REsourse link under Friends of Babble on the right hand side of the page, it explains a lot about the game.
godt - Fmitch means that there are a lot of words in the grid with 7 letters
okay seriously folks, the 1st re5 is driving me batty! :)
godthaab - there are lost of 7 letter words. You should go to the right side of the page and click on AngelSongs Resource page and scroll down to rules of the game and read. Then click on links then click on MrP's stats list and it will give you a 2 letter word list for today
I am not doing well at todays puzzle. Anyone want any Sun Chips? :)
Toes - oh yes on the Sun Chips I love them...Umnended emeunmmeee-yu mmmm-hard to talk with a mouth full of sun chips *grin*
*Offers Faerie the bad of chips* They are so yummy! What a healthy breakfast huh? :) lol At least I had OJ and an apple already
Toes - would you like some of my grape juice?
To all, Thanks for helping me
re5/14 short version of military work to explore/check out. (Double consonant is in the word)
jen - ALL the re's drive me batty
Jen, I have 2 re5s, but I dont use the list so I don't know if either one is what you need. They are 10 and 18 pts.
Godthaab-your welcome..any questions please ask.
re5/14- shortened versio of a word often used in the military - to carry out an inspection or check out an area before any action is taken
sorry typo that should have been military word!!!
It's OK to stand next to me now, I've just had a shower!
Faerie, hey that soudns great! I am a huge fruit fan :)
Hi Ex Wren!
It's Welch's grape juice - makes your tounge purple.
re5/14- Faerie - what does this mean?
{{{exwren}}} Hi!
re5/14 - sure - shortened military term only shortened and then a changed spelling ;) - though often used in airborne sensor platforms
Godthaab - re 5/14 word begins with re has 5 letters in it and is worth 14 points. Each letter in the grid also has a number at the bottom.
Purple tongue is good....
You might say se6/18 is related to re5/14 - in a military intel sense ;)
:( I'm still not seein it, thanks guys for all the hints.
I am so excited! I am going to get a massage and a facial today after work! I have never had either done before! I am a little scared! lol
TSM-I think so too. Especially if you work in a Dr's office. LOL
stalled out at 77...I'm such an amateur
Toes - You will just have another addiction. don't do it...oh what he heck....You will think you have died and gone to heaven...
Jen it has a double consonant re+double consonant + vowel
oiee-you can do it just keep on pecking away.
the re - ignoring the military term - r + the phonetic version of the sound you hear when you yell out in an enclosed space. then change the last vowel of that word
bless you snowy! that just doesn't look right to me!! :) See, I told you hated re words!
oiee- don't give up! We are all amateurs here! Even the very, very clever ones here get stuck sometimes - have a cup of coffee & take a fresh look later
stuck at 111 words..need to take break
Faerie, yeah I could use a nice massage. I carry stress in my shoulders and neck. Not fun lol ... you should come with, we can just spend all afternoon there and drink wine :) .... well you can have wine, I will drink, um... juice lol
yw Jen! am liking this grid but it could do with a coupla letters moving! LOL
yeah oiee, look at me stuck on that stupid re5 for like ever! 77 is good! :)
thanks for the encouragement snowyowl...coffee sounds like a brilliant idea. Have a good morning everyone...I shall return.
I like this game's dictionary! Bookworm at YahooGames recognizes almost any combination of letters as existing somewhere. So does the official Scrabble dictionary. This games is refreshingly real.
oiee- later
you just wait, editer ...
Later oiee :)
Toes - I don't like wine - I'll have juice also..or a Pepsi. I would love to go with you. Stress has a way of kicking your butt. You will fall in love today. I'm sure of that.

Mab, Miya meant I hugged her too enthusiastically, lol!! :D
Mab, only through all the hugs I've been getting today! I feel loved :)
anyone have clues for the 8's and 9's? Simple clues?

Oh, well that's all right then. You are loved, dear Miya.

hi miya! what's today's theme?
any clue for 2nd wo5/18?

LOL Tim- nice motor!
miya have u entered any words yet?
Well, Bex...yes and no... ...mostly no... I'm on it. Really :)
python , the badest
Well, Miy, if Kyo were my favorite that would make him my boy toy. Hmm. Not a bad idea at all; I'll have to get one-- a boy toy.

*is squashed* hey, Hurshy!!! ^^
es 6/33 - add a black bird es 7/ add another black bird
bye bex, hi hurshy!
One of the es words--kind of like "basis" or "flavor"
es7/32 - the most characteristic part of something
miya, i am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad you are back!!!
es6/33 plus your cr4/9
es 5/10 expresses the fact that there are lots of s letters in the grid
wow, thanks Hurshy! It's great to BE back! How are you? :)
i'm good
And the es words are DONE! Thank you... "four and twenty black birds baked in a pie...."
Good morning hurshy. Our Miya back again, it's so terrific! Our hurshy finished this grid in the wee hours of this day!
thanks, Mab! ^^
How can there be so many er words? I have such a paltry pile of them - all little.
yes, it is terrific and yes, i did the grid in the wee hours i wish i hadn't!
afternoon all
You obviously haven't discovered the straight up and down qualities of er9/60
LOL Hurshy! Congrats XD
Hi ruthy.
do you mean, Haz, that I might expand upon my er5/6?
Hey Ruthy :)
careful girls, let's not get nasty...
hi ruthy!
AM clues?
to heck with toys, i must celebrate! refresh!
harp - the country you are in without the i and a change of vowel at the end + plural
*in love* Hurshy!!! *heart is melting* thank you!!!
thank you snowy, new word for me!
Aw, hursh... Say it with J rock.
me too harp & yw!
does anybody know my icon? It was the best. My game is vintage now....
I still can't find the er9 -am I being particularly dense today?
Thank you snowy, I wouldn't have guessed that one.
Yep, I used to play stratego when I was a kid.
(((Hurshy))) you're the best, dude :)
flag test!
yw mab - it was a clue I leeched form the log earlier!
snowy er5 + n4/4
Poor balker. Did you message Dr. G-d?
hi balker
hi! yeah, and he said it should work now! :)
so...miya...what's up with lemon?
Hello....the wee one is napping, so I thought I'd pop in a bit.
Hurshy, I'm not sure whether he's coming back or not...I think he's slightly intimidated LOL
my5/18? then I must go to work. (It's my birthday so I'm asking for lots of clues! I don't want my hobbies to get out of hand today....)
TY Fmitch!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks FMitch -- couldn't see it and was thinking it must be something arcane. Yes Miy, what news?
OOOHHHH Happy Birthday harpjane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Happy Day!!!!
hi gramma!
but... how's he doing?
Howdy snowy 8)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HARP!!! XD Mab, he's great :) a leeeettle too intimidated to come back but he's a whizz at sudoku :)
y/w guys
Hurshy, there's not really been much of a development yet...I'm keeping my ears open :)
Happiest of birthdays harp!!! Hi gramma.
hurshy, could you please drop the lemon thing. It will just cause a ruckus again. I can't tolerate the conflict in the log. By the way... welcome back, Miyavi-fan. ^_^
oh, ok. keep us posted. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARPJANE!!!!
Understandable Miy. One does worry for him.
So has anyone found a word to beat er9/60 yet?
thanks Gramma, it's nice to be back :)
Aiden there is an sc9/60 but nothing bigger than 9 letters today.
(((((((((((((MIYA))))))))))))) )))
no worries, gramma. The question was put to Miy. Love your toy.
Hey, Shorty!!!! thank you for helping me :)
TY mab. Are you familiar w/the Irish mail?
Hi all!!! What a trip down memory lane looking for a 60's Sindy...Remember my brother and I playing with Sindy,Paul,Action man and a knee height(to action man) flamenco dolly to make up the party...Lol
hi shorty! Any clues please for the sc9 please
Hello everyone!!!
tbear! HI -I had Tressy with the growing ponytail!
For the sc 9 - think of MS, then pluralise the S part
(((BIG hugs for Shorty))) how are you?
Haz you are a fountain of clues TYTY!!!!
dr_god?
I'm good, glad to see you back How are you?
hello :)
Hi tbear, shorty. Oh, I remember Tressy! Must go to appt. now. Later.
Hello fake
hello fakeplastic Later mab
I'm GREAT thanks Shorty, how are you! But...I just had a weird thought. You know toast always falls butter/marmalade/jam whatever side DOWN? and that that's a scientifically proven fact? ...if I put butter on BOTH sides of my toast and drop it, will it fly?!
balker - i don't think he's online now... he's not logged in over at iron sudoku, anyway
snowy...I remember her...I had Sindys red sportscar for 2 hours one Christmas Day morning before my father sobered up,repackaged it and returned it in due course....miserable b_______ :)
balker, poor flagless thing, send message via comments link at bottom of page.
No Miy - you will just get a very messy carpet!!!!! LOL
I'm mailing with him, I just wanted him to see a message where there's no flag :)
Ok, balker, you're all set. Refresh the page.
He must have sold all the flags to the middle east, I hear there's a lot of demand
oooooh
yep, thanks!
Oh tbear! - My daughter says I scarred her for life cos she didn't get a Sindy caravan!
No Miy, it will land on it's crusty edge. Everybody knows that.
oh, that's right, FMitch. Destroy a childhood dream!!!
LOL Miya
But...But Mab... *sighs* I just wanted to believe it :/
miya - they did a mythbusters on the toast thing. they found that if you drop toast from vertical, it does NOT prefer the butter side. but in real life, people drop it by knocking it off the table, where it is always butter side UP. and it does have a tendency to fall on the opposite side from a table, butter or no butter. so really, the butter is not the problem!!
tbear, that's truly horrid.
And the toast will land on one side, bounce and land on the other.
now, miya, what you need to do is butter a cat, which always lands on its feet... the spinning can run a city's electrical needs!
snowy.....put her in touch with me...we can have Sindy withdrawal co-counselling sessions....might well be that thats holding me back in life....Yeah thats it I need a Sindy sportscar.....
Hi Dr_God!
Good day all. Great toys today! How's the grid?
balker - I think you are our 1st identified Danish player - welcome!
can you believe it the first day of spring and we have a WINTER FREAKING STORM WARNING
and there are no free lunches - buttering a cat requires more energy than the spinning will produce
LOL Spellacked!!! got a cat you can lend me? huh? XD Hurshy...but...*bursts into tears*
I'm happy to see some s's today. THere has been an s drought of late.
FMitch, thanks, but without the flag showing, we may never know for sure
Hehe. Me too shorty. 6 inches overnight. :o)
balher the flag is there now hit F5 to refresh
Words to live by, balker. I'm sticking with the edge. Really gone now.
Hey Hollybug - glad to see you went pro!
Balker refresh F5 and you will see your lovely flag
fmitch, I know, I meant before :)
Hehe. Thank you. I'm glad I did too. :o)
LOL tbear I always wanted plastic Cinderella glass slippers & never got them. My grandchildren have about 20 pairs now! The clip clopping on the wooden floors is deafening!
Sindy, Paul & the red MG. I had these in the 60s.:-)))
ah...I'm off...I'm going to go force some toast to land butter side up. better still, I'm going to make it FLY XD Ja ne!
bye ya Miya!!! come back soon
Jacula....YOU can't have had them...I HAD THEM.......confused and everso slightly dazed
hey shorty - no offense but I'm hoping we get the snow they are predicting for us. We haven't had enough this year. Hardly any - really.
Holly did you get the snow yet?
bye Miy come back soon!!!
bye miy - welcome back btw - great to see you!
'Bye Miya. LOL, TBear.
I don't mind if I don't have plans But of course I have PLANS
TBear, did you have Sindy's sister, Patch, and her dog Ringo?
Not yet... it's suppose to start this evening and continue into the morning... But it's getting quite chilly.
Ohhh I'm sorry. I hope we don't get too much then. My kids are gone for the week and I wouldn't mind being snowed in -especially if Greg could stay home too.
yeah same here
Hehe. EXACTLY. I love the snow when I don't have anything to do...
bubye miya!!
My Sindy was a brunette (as am I) and my best friend's was a blonde (as is she). We had hours of fun with them.
Okay into the grid I go.
Jacs....so you know 'bout Sindy and Action Man then...there was some serious snogging going on behind Pauls back WITH sound effects (well I was a liberated child of liberated parents of the 60's)
TBear - Yes, I believe that flighty blonde Sindy of my friends got up to all sorts with her brother's Action Man. My Sindy was faithful to her Paul. LOL.
Good morning everyone -- back for the last 50. :)
My sisters cut Tressy's ponytail off almost to the scalp so I can lay claim to the 1st punk doll - this was the 1960s! They also cut all the hair off the last doll I was allowed to have & drew with biro all over her face! I still can't quite forgive them!
Hi Cyber
Jacs...now your two sound more news worthy than Sindy and Action Man...especially in the sixties!!
... And as for that tart Tressy, our other friend's doll... Well... *Grins*
anyone have a subtle clue for the a's?
Snowy - My friend and I put your sisters up to it!
hi cybernan! OK folks -off to put on my uniform ready for Brownies.BBL
Good morning, Hurshy -- who is your icon?
Bye snowy - have fun.
am6 & pl. 7 - To punish by a fine imposed arbitrarily at the discretion of the court.
They were brats who liked football! LOL I was the only girly child my mother got. 3
Ditto. I have three brothers. I SOOOO wanted a sister.
Bye Snowy dib dib dob dob...oooh no...that the boys isn't it..
I have 2 sisters and ALL we did was fight when we were younger
Hollybug -- too bad we didn't know each other sooner. i had a sister I would have given you.
I would of given her 2
lol. Indeed.
I was an only child. It never bothered me, though it does now I'm older.
Alright. Well. I SUPPOSE I should go to class. :o) I will see you all a bit later. :o) Bye bye.
oh, cnan, my icon is the japanese rocker miyavi :) in honor of miya's return
Bye Hollybug - have a good class.
That's great Hurshy.
bye Holly
You could have had both of mine Holly, but not now -I really like them now! Really going now Bye!

kinda go with my day. Off work today because of my arthitis, then the boyfriend borrows my car to go to home depot, loads the car up, turns a corner and the stuff shifts and crash breaks my back window
now I have to drive an hour this afternoon to see the specialist with a plastic window, hope it doesn't blow off
Rats! I hope they are over. This is the first day I've had in weeks to babble at will. House is clean, no realtor coming to look at it, no company, no hubby home, kids are home so I don't have to leave to go get them, etc. I'm really looking forward to a leisurely babble experience today.
UGH sheryl that is terrible. I had a crummy morning too but not that bad.
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day
Sheesh, sheryl...Talk about a freak accident!
lol music, what you gonna do, babble on
Do you have to drive in to TO, Sheryl? -- hope the roads are good!
just to Newmarket about 45 minutes from Barrie
LOL, Sheryl! Sing that song...
nice and sunny and roads are clear so no prob
Yep I have about one more hour and then it is off to do my Girl Scout stuff. I think the green girls are taking over my life lately.
But when ever Monday comes but when every Monday comes,
any other day of the week is finnnnnnnnnnnne yeah
Musicmom -- do you have the en 8 or the er 9? Help!!!
no cnan - I'm sorry I don't.
the er 9 plays off the 6/21
did you find that first cr 6?
Six o'clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream...
any clues please on the second cr5/12 I have the one which means tuft on a bird ty
any clue for the last se 4 pls
It's just another manic monday...
Sheryl- se 4 the name of the games in tennis
cait its like you have work to do, you have c***** change the second letter
is there an er word that means sincere? I keep trying to put it in but it rejects it. i'm afraid to type it in the log. Er**** goes to camp.
pass the fish pls and ty for the clue, amen
Caitlyn- the top of a wave
cait -- salad green or sandwich ingredient -- watercr***
musicmom -- yep but it starts with "ear" LOl
nm - it has an a in it. Fish please.
sincere is spelled ear-. Only the name is spelled er.
wish was sunday, when I don't have to run day, lool
Thanks guys - I knew that. Sheesh. Keep singing Sheryl. I think that needs to be my theme song.
Don't think so Vicuna -- mind you, I'm still looking for the 9

Sheryl- I'm finished thanks to you. I appreciate your help. Anything else I can do for you?
Kimm -- clues for the first cr 6/21 and en 8, please.
Got to go to choir practise now, may be back later, still have 49 to find (including those re's!)
c-nan, I don't know what you think I said, but I was responding (along with everyone else) to musicmom! Nevertheless, I hadn't yet got that second-e variant, so thanks! :)
and congratulations !*~*~*Kim*~*~*!
hi all, anyone have a clue for re 6/21? thanks
Alas, I can't remember all the lyrics for Foreigner's Sad Monday...
bye ex. yep I didn't have that e variant either.
start me off can't even remember the first line
the first cr6/21 is a chemical, similar to that sticky stuff from a southwestern bush
Or how about "Tell me why I don't like Mondays..."
re 6/21: break that the kids enjoy at school mid-morning and mid afternoon.
It was a Monday A day like any other day I left the small town for the apple in decay It was my destiny It's what we needed to do they were telling me I'm telling you...
cr 6/21- I can't access the definition, but start with cre and end with a word meaning the sun
I don't like Monday's I wanna shoot the whole day down
re6/21 is a break, or a leaving I could really use or5/12
the message machine in side her head gets switched to overload and nobody's gonna go to school to today she's gonna make them stay at home
en 8/45- to enchant or bewitch
Thank you, Spellacked and Kimm -- been looking for that one for a long time -- so has smithchick -- hope she saw it.
Actually, the title is Long, Long Way From Home...
Or 5/12- an abalone
Thanks Kimm me tooo
saw them in the 70's but can't place the song
OKay, cybernan, that was a veiled hint for me, huh? Well I'm in dense mode... I'll have to put on my thinking cap!
Your welcome. Gotta run. I have some papers to correct.
Thanks again, Kimm. er 9 (know it is built on the 5/12, but haven't been able to find it!)?
Oops- I mean "you're" welcome. Have to correct myself.
Sad Monday, She's waiting for me but I'm a long, long way from home...
Monday Monday, can't trust that day, Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be Oh Monday Monday, how could you leave and not take me.
Think of a word for witchcraft, smith
cyber and spellacked: ty, for some reason it was not letting me put that re**** in...kept saying i already had it, but it didn't appear on my list, so i refreshed and voila! and DONE!
bye, Kimm -- thanks for all the help. :)

kartra, which me4/5?
lgorms - it isn't in the grid - should be okay.
why is "roma" not allowed anymore. it's been in other grids and counted? any thoughts?
ToeSockMonkey, wait Hannah... Will you marry me?
Thanks musicmom -- was drawing a blank on that one. Is the se 7/44 related?
Hey smaller... Where ya been hiding?
yes. I still need the 5/14 before it.
smithie!!!!! good to see you!!!! we're in our busy season at work. so i've actually had to...work. darn!
New strategy today -- working from the end of the alphabet up, to save on scrolling
abbreviation for second company?
hey, just noticed my name is in the puzzle today.... eat at j***
anyone have a hint for se7/44? it has to start with SEC and involve a Y, i'm pretty sure
Blech...blasted work... I've been housewifing myself into a state of perpetual cleaning. It has to stop!
Good strategy, skizzy!
skizzy -- lol -- I always start with that intention, but then I see words at the beginnng of the alphabet that I just know I'll forget if I don't enter them!
shhhhh skizzy we can't tell.
I have no se7's yet. Bummer...
smithie- well if you have as much mud as i do around here, i can certainly understand why about the cleaning. sooo...when you're done there, howsabout my house?!!
TY, Music!
skizzy: se 7/44...i can't tell you, i am sworn to se*****
Hi all..... Good clue MusicMom...I won't tell anyone
ah, thanks lgorms!
se 7/44: shshh! It's a se**** (another noun with the same meaning)
thanks guys!
Hi, Schroeder!
skizzy: i always start backwards for that scrolling reason
Hi smithchick!!! Long time no chat....glad to see you are taking a break from evil housework :)
Hi Schroeder! :)
LOL great clue MusicMom! Hi Tink!!
My strategy is to go all through the grid starting in the upper left hand corner and finding as many as I can for each letter and then breaking out the list after I've gone through the whole grid once. I'm in the middle of my first pass. About to start l...
That's a neat way to do it Smith. i'll have to try that tomrrow.
I've had a realtor come look at my unlisted house, gone out of town and had company for three days. This is my first free babble day in a couple of weeks where I don't have to race through! Very exciting...
LOL smithie, that's such a high work-ethic strategy. i noodle as much as my attention span will allow (about 10 minutes)and then sprint to the list!
Oh well, jilted, again. Have a happy Monday folks, I'm off.
Lately, I've been breaking out the list really early so I could hurry up and finish while I had a few minutes here and there. I prefer the luxury of leisurely going through the grid.
Oh, don't be sad Capone!
any hints for Jo4?
bye all...good luck
Maybe she didn't think you were serious capone<G>
Hi cybernan & Smaller!!!! Bye Capone
bye lgorms thanks!
jo/4 are plain
I find whatever I can at the flip then get the list the next morning.....
mm - i'm not sure he was serious - just figured if she was here that would get her to say something :)
how many words today???
no prob, musicmom
read my hint at 1:19 for the jo/4
I know Hurshy - that's what I mean. I would have ignorred it too:-[)))
199 words
jo 6: baby roo's?
Hey, hursh...What's your icon?
Loved those l's!!! They were so easy!
oh, of course, you were being sarcastic. duh! my icon is the japanese rocker miyavi, in honor of miya's return.
Oh, I didn't know miya had returned... Good for her!
Nope, they really were easy... For a change...
cyber - Monday morning a cup of j-- is nice - word is more than one.
I'm glad to hear the I's are easy...stuck in re land right now....
I just finished them Shro- let me know if you need help (re)
Thanks MM :)
just 9 left: some me's, the big sc's, and some se's. All but the sc's should be obvious but I'm short braincells today
Good going spell... you're brain must be doing something right...
i'm new, how do you know how many of each kind of work you have left? i'm a bit confused.
Wow spell, you working with more brain cells than I this Monday...
spell were you wanting clues. I have the sc.

http://www.writely.com/View.as px?docid=bccpk6gfhxhw4 for the clues
thanks forresto, i guess i'll just keep going blind. i have 85 words 1123 points. is that high or low?
Click on the flip to stats in upper right corner above the grid.
Yahoo!! ... Done!

Congrats Movieman!!!!
I finally had to turn off the chat log :( and it still took a long time!
clue for the my?
Blue, there are also some links on the side of the page that you can click to get stats. Babblers Anonymous and angelsong's babble page. You can find lists there...
medical term -- deterioration of the liver
thanks everyone. that's very helpful.
my -- another medical term (common ending)
MM, I'm stuck on the re 7/32....please
schroder when you do something wrong and you feel bad, you feel re7
I'm sooo sorry about the re7/32 ---- re+mo5
In my quest to gray out more areas: is the top left e an es or an en?
re 7/32: regret -- he showed no re______ for his crime.
es
any clues for the er 9/60?
Dang....thanks all, Just a little slow today...
I've decided that today I hate c's... Loathe them.
er9: the quality of being er5 (standing upright)
er 9: condition of being upright (think of Scotland's lake monster)
thanks cyber!
hints for my5??
hey all
my + common medial ending
Anyone know what tomorrow's theme is?
geez, just seems like 2 minutes ago i went to make a cup of tea, now 45 minutes & 2 phone calls later, after doing dishes & cleaning off stove, i'm finally ready to relax & play babble! hi again!!!
Hello, iArch!
Hi again, helen...
new here, just found the site last night. i can see that this is one rather addictive game lol
Hi helen -- were you playing tangleword yesterday?
hey smith!
Welcome back Helen....
household objects
yes nan - were you there?
Very addictive... run now while you can!
thx schro
lol i should but im not
yes -- but nowhere near as good at it as you are -- the old brain just doesn't want to work that quickly!
the my does not use c.
nan -what name do you use?
hi again! i love weekdays - i get to see everyone in babbleland!
er9/60 no matter how many times i type the er word just cant come up with the 9 ,where am i failing ????
cybernan
Hey, Temple...did the headache go away?
or maybe it's c-nan -- one of them won't take anything over 6 letters!
yes, thanks, smith! but the schoolwork didn't!!!
nan & ty for saying i'm good, wasn't always like that, big learning curve, but happy to be red. & i'm afraid i will never get to the high 2000's, cause i don't type well, only mouse.
the ER 9 is within the first two rows of the grid.
Hi Temple!!!!!
It never does, does it?
Yvo -- think of the scot lake monster
the last me5/12?
there is one letter for the e9/60 in the thrid row of the grid as well.
what site do you play tangleword on?
hi temple ok, nan, next time - i will know it's you, what's your rank on tangle?
Hi TO good to see you too.
OH, excellent, cybernan! Got that er9!
me 5/12: intermediate, but not a commonly used word.
lol, helen -- a lowly green
smith: iwin.com
lol nan - do you have alot of games played? it was a long climb for me to red, with 3 or 4 dazzling light bulbs going off along the way!
got it thanks!
I played it the other day for the first time. I'm not very good. Can't remember my score, but it was singularly unimpressive...
co8?
no -- only go there when I have nothing better to do.
thanks for er clues.... : )
smith- the tangle site was down for a week (about 3 weeks ago) iwin.com bought playsite.com & incorporated their games, so meanwhile all us tanglers went off to find other addictions, i found this one!!!!
I just can't think fast enough to get the high scores on tangle -- the brain does start to slow down at my age! -- as well as the fingers and lots of other body parts!!
Rue the day, helen...
Gang - i have to go - 20 words left but duty calls. All c and s words for me when I return. Ttyl.
bye, mm!
bye musicmom :)
Bye Musicmom!!
yep smith - everyone begins like that! you only have to have a little killer instinct to get better. i've told a bunch of people there about this site. i like to describe the two games as polar opposites, same basic principle, but this game is played at a snail's pace & tangle comparatively is played at light speed
lol smith, nope, now i spend way more time here than i do at tangle, only really went there yesterday cause i had problems getting on here. :)
where is tangle?
Bye musicmom!
nevermind
Tangleword: boggle game at iwin.com
NaN hours left! AGHH! I'm totally OCDing right now. this is messing up my routine. :(
LOL boreetos!
Bye folks -- off to play a round if Eight1 (more my speed) -- back at the flip:)
hey boreetos!
Bye cybernan!!
bye nan
bye, nan
I was all ready with my movie poster, when I see that it's games today... evening all :D
Hiya Sherb!!
Hey, sherb...
en8/45 any clues please?
hey sherb! i simply cannot see the last three wo words....as if i have a blind spot....
hiya Schro and smithchick :D :D
Good afternoon all. I will have to try tanglewords, although I tend to choke under time pressure. On the other hand, it sounds like what I need to force myself to think faster.
Hey mo... Who else is lurking out there!
It's my first day to be able to play without lurking in weeks!
hey Temple :D ...Babble or Sudoku...
thank you got it finally, cybernan and Angelsong thanks
co8?
hi smithchic... i havent been lurking honest ...ive just finished dinner!!!
Hello mab!
LOL, mo. What'd you have?
I'm lurking because I'm on lunch and trying to get as many words as possible! ;) Hi everyone!
mab, if you go to tangle - 2 pieces of advice. do NOT, under any circumstances start in the 30 second room - i still get killed in there. go to the 5 minute room, or look for a 2 minute room with a lower ceiling
Temple: Last three mo's -- think chocolate
Hey, kristin!
hiya smithy!
any better?
lol mab - i crack myself up - by lower ceiling i mean: only players up to a certain rank can play there, more of an even competition - many people get disheartened & quit cause it seems so hard at first, but most folks are friendly & will help you out
homemde guinea fowl and ham pie with mashed potatoes ,celeriac and sprouts
Angel co plus er6/21..
sigh... drat the firewall... i want to tangle some words
I am lurking for clues.. I am stuck on the 9 letter work in line 1 & 2. grrrrrr
is tangle word boggle? i play boggle and i think that's why i have so much trouble getting long words - speed counts there! however - i played so much i am now competing with myself on certain puzzles!
Sounds good mo!
en8/45 please anyone
Holy crow Mo! That is quite the feast (at least by my humble standards)
I have the er9. any clues for the others?
ooooh temple - yes it is like boggle with one great improvement - i used to play boggle on games.com, but on tangle you are able to rotate the board, it's amazing how many words you can find from a different perspective!
I don't have it either, mo.
my dear husband made the pie ...i just did the boring bits
also need clues for the 8's other than the co8, which I found, thanks, mab.
i wish i was able to rotate this board - sometimes i sit here with my head at all kinds of weird angles :)
Wait, yes I do. It means to enchant or bewitch... Think of merlin...
Hello fellow Babblers. This is my first day and I am curious about the code "en8/45" spoken among more seasoned wordsmiths. What does that mean? Loving the game!
hiya hurshy - what do you mean?
i mean i live at a boarding school, and there's a firewall which blocks most game sites. thankfully not this one!!! so i cannot play on iwin.com :(
well i guess it's not the firewall so much as the settings they put so the students won't play games
The word starts with en, is 8 letters long and is worth 45 points. That babble for dummys link is great as is angelsong's link.
down to last 3: the last me5/12, the first se5/14, and the last se6/18. The me in particular is frustrating me... a clue would be nice (I have the blackbirds and the disarray)
Thank you. So a $10 investment is worthwhile if I want to know what I'm missing?
tack an s onto the second me4/5
i am still searching for the last three wo words...help please?
spell - just got on, so i don't know yet if I have the me you need- do you have one that's the last part of a place to live?
If you play the game even just a few times and enjoy it, $10 is worth it
merlin the wizard?
wo words - kind of like bad
temple - one is a very improbable plural, then there's most bad and its plural
bummer hurshy - time for that laptop, huh? a boarding school! what a great life you must have! i'm imaging robin williams now - dead poets
Ugh, 34 words to go, 8 letter words done, and now I have to go to the office, will have to finish (I hope, for the first time ever!) tonight.
smithchick - I've got that one, I think, unless there's something in between?
Merlin was also a so******...
Thanks for the advice, Helen. Once in a while I play a very simple boggle game at wordplays.com. No extra graphics or sounds, just the game. Registration is optional.
mab ! that's where i play!
helen, a laptop wouldn't help, as i would be using the same network. no, in order to play i would have to pay for separate internet service. or maybe use my old slow free dialup.
It's a weird word. me + curvy letter + 19th letter plus vowel.
can i have more hints for my5... i dont see it yet!
Could someone give another clue for the my5? I didn't get the first one.
LOL, kartra
anyone have the first ce 4/5?
hahaha,, ya ive been stuck on it for a while too
hurshy - i think you would rock on tangle!
my5 - it's what Ahnuld's headache isn't
grigs, honey, was that your toy as a child, a stick? Were you perhaps a feral child? Raised by chipmunks?
sorry smithchic still cant get the en8 word
spellacked, I actually got that! TY!
it was the BEST toy! It could be a gun, or a sword, or a cane, or a steering wheel.... or i could tie a string to it and have a bow, or it could be a guitar....
my 5/18 - add 4th vowel + 13th letter in the alphabet + 1st vowel.
I would kill for that en8, Mo. Why won't anyone clue us?
It ends with an l. The practice of magic is also called so*****. That is the root word.
i know, it is a sad loss to the tangle world. maybe next time i visit my parents i will play it.
smithchick - thanks, good clue!
Yay for grigs and his brilliant toy and imagination! My five sisters and I would play shipwreck on a twin bed. It was our island. It was a very crowded little island.
smithchick thank you i have it now!
YW, grigs...
en8 --- bewitch
YW, mo!
if you had had my stick, you could have built a sailboat and sailed away... or rowed somewhere...
Well, that's great grigs. I like the simplicity of it and how that leaves room for the imagination. It's no troll doll of course...
ne5/10 and ne6/18 anyone pleeease
lol hurshy mab - i will check out your site
LOL, grig!! Would that I had your stick... I'm grown now and I still haven't managed to row to far away from my parents. Well, I did and the current dragged me back.
can anyone help with the first mo4/6 please?
okay, back to pretending to work. I have clients waiting for prenuptial agreements. (waaah, I wanna afford to pay cash for my house! of couse, if they couldn't afford that, they probly couldn't afford to hire lawyers to write prenups)
mo - ne5/10 is a perfume ingredient... but think roman
LOL again grigs. Whiners!
Matkins - mo4/6 - indian wear or snakes
Prenups, how romantic.
Hi and welcome back, matkins!
grrrr -- last word is the last me5/12!!!!! Still can't get it after smithchick's hints.
en8 means to enchant or cast a spel. last two letters sounds like a wing on a building.
Spellacked thank you ...i should have got those
thanks MM! got it! (finally)
I'm back... Merry Spring, everyone!!
evening all : )
me + the first letter of my name + consonant + vowel (second one)
Thanks mm, smithie, all. I got the en8 finally.
Hey jera and lola!
Hi lola! How good of you to bring your legos.
And Jera! Merry Spring to you as well!
spellacked- still can't find it but will keep looking thanks anyway
hi smith and mab : )
First timer here...I got 73 words so far. Any idea how many there are today?
smithchick -- that did it! I'm done. The previous clue said, "me + curvy letter + 19th letter" -- should have said 14th. Now I can get back to work :(
Finally got all the dirt off my dining room table... too cold to plant seeds outside... but the kids had a blast!
johnny: 199 words, including two 9s, only one of which is plural
hi johnny, and welcome! Go to angelsong's page (link in box top right of screen). All the info you need is there : )
...oh, and there are 199 words today : )
the first se6/18 and 7/28 are alluding me ...help please
Hi all. Please help with co 7/36 (2nd one) and 8/50 immediately after. Also, first re 6/18. Any help is much appreciated!!!
Is Anj here?
i'm new here, too. only have 104 words so far. how will i ever find 85 more?!
Thanks alot! My wife and I will probably compete at this. I hate to Lose!!!
I've not seen him, but I've been away for a bit.
vtd co8 is co+builds
Mo - See ce 6/21 & 7/28 - change first letter
I am sorry I meant ce - 7/32
vtd - co's are e-words done with someone else. re6/18 - how you'd feel if we told you all the answers
i have two 8s, but no 9s. how many are there? clues, anyone?
krajc... thank you very much
VTD - co - 7/36 - co + (means upright) or see - er 5/12 co - 8/50 - plural of co 7/36
Mo - Your welcome!
First time playing, how many words are there supposed to be in this puzzle, anyway?
just realised i havent got the remaining se5/10.se6/18,se5/18 and se6/30,,,help please
189
somebody said 199...
199
Mo - se 5/10 is plural of se 4/4
HI new people. There are a lot of you. Where did you all here about babble?
I didn't follow the comment thread...my bad. That means I'm not doing so hot...I only have 58 words so far...
199, Douglas. If you click on the link at right to Angelsongs page you'll find lots of info, and a list of the first two letters of each word.
hi smithchick. my bro-in-law sent me this link ysterday. now i'm an addict :(
krajc...thank you i have that ...the ones i need are the ones after that
mab. I am overwhelmed by the desire to fluff your hair.... : )
se - 6/18 (see ce 6/21) I don't have the other two, yet.
But it's poor etiquette to give answers, yes?
It doesn't take long, ca$h... se5/18... It's a weird spelling of a word meaning sadness without the double consonant in the middle and with a different beginning vowel. The se6/30 is the plural.
Mo - Whoops, I haven't got those yet, sorry.
Yes douglas, very poor etiquette. Another clue for se5/18. Se + *** your boat...
I just got a 7/28. Woo-hoo!
Go douglas!
LOL lola
krajc... no worries ,,,but thank you anyway
Hey, shorty!
hey!!!
Am I gonna smack myself when I find the a's? I have no idea at this point what they are.
Apparently you can't use the same letter twice...
I know, lola, she's pretty cute. I adored troll dolls (and still have a couple).
given up on sudoku... I should never have let myself be tempted...
smith, am6/24 and am7/36. They sound a bit like where you live : )
shall I build her a lego house?? : )
Thank you thank you for clues. Got both co's. My last one for the day is still the first re 6/18. Spellacked - I'd feel "relieved," but that's not in the puzzle!!! Another clue anyone for the re?
No, smithie, it's a strange word. a plus french for thank you with a different vowel at the end. and plural.
TY, lola. I wouldn't have guessed those anytime soon.
I just got a 6/18, doo-dah, doo-dah.
hey lola! hey shorty! :)
hey TO!!!!
Douglas is on fire!
A lego house would be great. Leave room in case she meets an eligible male troll doll.
hi temple! : ) *lola throws a bucket of water over Douglas*
i am not even getting clues today... : /
i have no am--- words at all. didn't understand your clues lola. sorry, i'm slow.
But I seem to be starting to run out of ideas. I just got a 4/4
...and starts building a lego troll doll house! : D
I'm starting a strategy of looking at each letter as the first letter of a word. Just got a 4/5
mab i still have two trolls: a salt and pepper haired one and a new york mets one!
cash, think of a large continent, remove one vowel and change the last one : )
douglas, if you go pro you get a stats programme telling you how many words start with each tile : )
does Pro also get you all those nice little icons?
I've already noticed the Scrabble stragegy of extending words. 6/21, 7/32
To heck with sudoku. I'm back here for a while. Hi all!
must rush goodnight everyone happy babbling...see you tomorrow all being well
hi tor! I made a note of the no's btw, so if you get desperate gimme a shout : )
Hi torgone... I recommend going pro. It's fun!
lola, i got them! thanks
Hi torgone. Pretty icon. Are you in love?
Bye, mo!!
Mo - Did you get the two se's? If not, I have them.
bye mo...hi tor : )
Ents is most certainly a word!
hi smithchick (and everyone else). There was a link on boing boing (web blog) which might be why there are more new people on babble.
HI mouseshadow!
cash, yes, pro gets you an icon, a handbag and a flag too! : D
any j words on this?
second wo6/30 please?
can somebody repost the stats please?
I will, smithchick, as soon as I get a round tuit. Heya mab! In love? Me? Just with myself ..
6/18
temple, it's a plural : )
nevermind...
Now I'm confused, but it just did let me use a letter twice. It was also the first and last letter
LOL, torgone...
Ecce isn't a word, but should be, as in Ecce Homo, behold the man...
Douglas - can't have been the same letter twice... sometimes there's more than one way to make a word in a grid, especially one like this... :D
If it is in the grid more than once, you can use it more than once, just not that letter in that position.
er, it's 'ecco'...
4/5, 5/12, 6/21, 7/32
allright....this may sound dumb,but, How do I chage my icon?
Well, you actually have to have an icon before you change it, don.
Hi all, back from Brownies & ready to battle on for the last 50 words.
Hey, snowy...
hi snowy :D ...Etch-a-Sketch!!
Hi snowy.
Etch-a-Sketchs are so very cool, aren't they?
can i get some hints for om4 please!
ty smithchick....I'll remember that little bit of brutal honesty. and as you can see, I did find it myself
etch a sketch makes a nice neat icon don't you think! LOl I loved mine!
5/12, 6/21
where you from donster?
Someone mentioned that BoingBoing.net is sending traffic here. It's my first time here, and BoingBoing is how I found it. Cool site!
Well, don. I am actually rather inept and didn't have an icon for months.. MONTHS... because I couldn't figure it out. So rather than shame myself by admitting that I couldn't tell ya, I shamed you instead.
got the oms! anyone with the wr5?
welcome vpchat! kartra for the om4 think of Mr Simpson - 5 is the plural
Hey, vpchat!
hi snowy! ((x)) : )
nevermind.. hahaha.. thanks snowy!
wr5 think about a sport played in a ring like boxing
7 left... nuttin' but re's... *pant* *gasp*
alright smithchick, now that we both have admitted to being something less than brilliant, lets start over,Kay?
I'm back for a little bit. Angel - LOL I had no idea...
Why do I do this to myself??
Works for me, donster:)
LOL, Jera! Does anyone have a clue for sc8 or sc9?
Excuse me Smith - not Angel...
{{{{{{{{{{FAERIEKAE}}}}}}}}}}} }}!!! How are ya?
iinfo on how to change an icon is now on the resource page.... :)
Jera we do it because we can! LOL
It's a disease usually with multiple in front of it... MS...
Oh, you knew it all along, faerie. I don't hide it well at all!
(((((Smithy)))))) I'm great...thanks.
((((Angel))))) there how are you doing today?
Any clues for se6/21, se7/32, and first re6/18? I'd sure like to put this one behind me!
TY, TY Jera!!!
Hey, gwenski!
Hi!( just got it se6/21)
I'm working on beating Debra Hamel's percentage and score from yesterday...she got 95 out of 150 words and 1547 points
and pl. Now just that pesky re6/18?
I'd take clues for the se6/21 and se7/32 as well
HELLO faerie,jera.Angel!!!!!
Me too, stardeo.
{{{shorty}}} tackle for Strawberry Shortcake. I want to play with it.
I need the first 2 re's a 5/14 & 6/24...
no its MINE you can't have it
Jera - why do I do this to myself?... the eternal Babble question... :D
se6/21: If you're trying to tell the difference between things, you usually would use a word starting with dis****. This word has same ending (and meaning). To discriminate. (never heard of it before)
*sits down with pouty face* then I'll just put more lipstick on....
LOL, sherb... I meant specifically leaving the dreaded re's for "dessert"...
Thanks, Gwenski!
Hi all, just found a se7/44
So, now can I have a clue for that re6? Pretty please!!
Congratulations, rebekb!!
WeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllI guess you can play with it IF you give it back
Could someone help me with the first 2 re's pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaase???
Whaddya mean relose isn't a valid word?!?
ok - thanks - you want some of my lipstick. *it taste really good* *and it's red*
Jera - re5 another word for search, short for a much longer word
Yeah, it said reclose is invalid too. boo to that!
First two re's are short for 'reconnaisance'. It contains a double consonant and ends in a vowel.
is it strawberry flavor
*looks blankly at sherb*
Shorty- of course it is...taste good huh? I loved playing dress up as a child and yes I did eat my moms lipstick. *still do but don't tell her*
think of an aircraft that flies high in the sky, spying... it's called a re************ aircraft... the re5 is short for that... double consonant after the re, and ends in a vowel... :D
LOL
Found it the monkey way... thanks for trying, sherb & qwenski...
4 more words! 2 6's & 2 7's!!
What stats do the Pro's play for?
ok I wont tell ;)
please please please.... All I need is that one re6/18 after 'guilt' and before the re/618 that gets a plural. Anyone??????
the sun came up again, gwenski...
Fixed my shoes... 2 more words!!!
thanks Shorty - knew I could count on you. You ate a bunch of it your self...know how I can tell...Your teeth are red. *teehee*
LOL, Jera... One's shoes must always be in excellent condition.

WOOHOO, Gwenski!!!!!!!!!!!!
Um, er... I dunno... *looks blank again*
Gwenski - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
messer isn't a word?!
LOL
Maybe if you tried to use that one code again, the mo5/12 one?
OHHHHHHH!!! *lightbulb finally flickers over Jera's head* I get it... guilt!!!
Messer and it's plural are definitely words around my house.
Whoo-hoo!! *happy dance of doneness*
YAY for Jera!!!!!!!!!! congrats!!!
i have only one 9 (sc 9/60). anything else?
Douglas, the advantage to going pro is getting the icon and profile and we can flip to a stats grid that shows the letters on the grid and what you have left to find. This is not a real competetive game just fun and community...
es7/32?
~*~*CONGRATULATIONS JERA*~*~
*grabs jera and joins in the dance* wooooo!
smith, what the basic ingredient is...
smithchick -vanilla es*****

Got a phone call. Thanks for all the es clues!!
I wondered where everyone had disappeared to...
any hints on am 6/24?
bye, douglas!
hi snowy! i am not done - the way i am going it may be the only chance i get to dance for this puzzle!!!
I'm here. just playig with Shorty Strawberry Shortcake. :)
It's a weird one... think of begging for me***, like to not be punished, but put an e at the end rather than a y... oh, & the a at beginning, of course...
I'm a newbie... I've got 73 words for 1075 pts. But I've got to go away for a while... Can I close this and come back, or do I have to keep it open?... and... do I have to click something to enter my score when I give up? ... and... Tis is addictive!!
LOL temple -did you see we made the grid?
i suppose i should go see what my kids are doing :) see you all later...
I would have sw5/18 "owler" was a word...
It won't post your ranking until you've played three times. You just have to log back in with your username and password.
Bye, ca$h!
we surely did!
Bye, Ca$h!!
Nana C you can just log out. your score will be saved and the grid will be waiting! Welcome to the most addictive game ever!
Thanks for your help -- work called me back. Gotta go! And congrats to all finishers.
nanac you close and it will all be there when you get back...
You don't have to do anything but log in... all is kept safe for you...
bye and thanks gwen!
bye Gwen & cash & Nana C
Later, gwenski!
Thanks everyone... and for the welcome too! One more Q... when time is up, does your score automatically get entered then? SYAL!
Yes, NanaC... you don't have to do anything with your score...
Well, I'd better go finish cleaning the kitchen & start thinking about supper... might po in later to be sociable...

I've added a new post today to BA under General. I am going to try to collect questions asked by new players for a new FAQ section of the resource page.... so if you're new, go to Babbler's Anonymous via the link on the right, and check out the New to Babble? post :)
They say "merl" is a word. What's a merl?
thanks Angelsong - I was hoping for something just like that :)
Douglas - click on the ? next to the word & it will tell you! Oh & please don't post words in the log! lol
how many words to get today?
Well, I learned something...
I'm not seeing a Babbler's Anonymous link
whiskbisk 199 words today
ty snowyowl!
The link for Babbler's Anonymous is to the right, under Freinds of Babble.
re 7/28 please? both of them and pardon me if they were already given...
Babblers anonymopus is the 3rd from bottom link under the heading Friends of Babble on the right hand side of this page. Well worth a visit as is Angelsongs site also listed there
??????? sorry anonymous!

Nope ..
hi boreetos & torgone!
i;m not here, either : ) but if i were i'd like to find the re6/18 after the 7/32 - or the one after that there are 2 in a row
hi boreetos, torgone... lots of new folks here today
any AM 6/24 clues??
I'm not new. I'm old.
Temple, if the sun came up again you'd say it re++++
ah but in not in spirit Torgone........sometimes old is better, you know what I mean?
Will someone explain the clue requests? For example, what does AM 6/24 mean? I upgraded to pro, so I have the stats, but I don't see how AM 6/24 relates.
I know you're not new, torgone...no offense...to you either boreetos (old boreetos...)
I always feel younger when there's a Nancy around ..
I'm new, boingboing sent me here, it will be their fault when I no longer go outside :). First day 500, 2nd day 988 and so far today over 1300
am6&7 the USA lose the i and change the last vowel
ty peester but it's the other re6/18 either above or below that one...
thank you snowyowl!
vpchat, check out the "scoring" section of the resource page.
Welcome new players, all you need to know about babble is on 2 sites links to which are on the righthand side of this page under Friends of Babble. If you click on Babblers Anonymous & look under general & check on the New to Babble post
hey all, i'm new. discovered this wonderfulness last night through boing-boing.
yw guigrrl
hi violachica! Great isn't it? Welcome to addicts corner! LOL
Any hints for Wo6/33 +7/48 ?
thanks, I read the scoring section on the resource page. I still don't understand how you know that you need (for example) Wo6/33. My stats may show that I need words that start with W, but it doesn't show the second letter or the point value.
re 6/18 anyone please?
lots of new faces! welcome all new Babblers! enjoy the addiction. there is no turning back. Check out Babbler's Anonymous and AngelSong's Babble page for good, helpful informaiton. I'm dancing as fast as I can to keep up with new players who have questions, and I love it.
Temple, lst re 6/18 is sun up again, 2nd is to mail again, 3rd is to have a ring stone put in another ring, 4th is new shoe bottoms,
there are some two-letter lists available to show second letters :) links are up on the resource page under the Links section.
vpchat AHH! - go to Angelsongs site when there clik on links and look for mrPs stats -that will give you the 2 letter word list. you can also get those stats on Babblers Anonymous
rebekb, they're what you give puppies to get rid of plural of wo4/9
thanks P

kay smaller - ta ta
ah. thanks.
en8/45 is a gorgeous word - it means to bewitch.
hi everyone, all finished now
(I agree Jacula - a very pleasing word!)
Well done, Scatty! Vicuna - I love words like that.
excellent jeff. I've got 60 words to go
Hey smaller, we're bright and sunny. Go figure.
harp, smaller has left us.
that sure is an effective word all i see of it is the EN !
is it the left or right en???
cant find it either jeffer
Jeffer - think of sorcery.
i dont see it either
I have to admit I'd never heard that word before
So you guys probably don't read enough fantasy!
Lol, Vicuna. Probably true.
jeffer, jacula's clue is very close to what you are looking for as far as the spelling goes
got it. i'd seen the word, but with a different ending.
Use part of the ce4/5 that sounds like prison rooms.
Elmo needs to be made a word!!!! loved that show, bert and ernie were class too
thx jacula, that did it for me!
Matt - Elmo was the first word I tried when I came into the grid this UK morning.
jeffer, use the first four letters of jacula's clue
The 2nd cr7/32's stumping me at the moment.
heh I noticed it after playing it for about an hour I'm terrible at this game, only got 39 words :(
got it! thanks all the prison room did it
jacula, think tennis game --- and match, same as the word above but last three letters different
jacula - my heart leapt, thinking i had a clue for you but i have the other too (kind of plant)
got the en8 thanks
Ah! I have the tennis word. It must be Jeffer's plant I seek.
Don't know about the plant, but I finally have the word, and am at 99 words my 2nd game...

Hurrah!! Done! The last hour has been a very long one LOL!!

jacula plant one, often used as a side salad plural
I've only just noticed the God of Love! *Slaps self with fish.*
over 5 hours, try hitting F5 to refresh
TY TY - lol Just glad to finish -there haven't been enough hours in the day recently
Scatty - Thank you! *Slaps self with fish yet again, then wishes she'd defrosted it first.* I remember the first time I put that on my son's sandwiches with cheese for school. He came home and asked, 'Mummy. Why did you put grass on my sandwiches?'
any clue for the se6/21? please?
i call it that even now, i hate it when i order a steak and that is scattered all over the plate
se6/21 & 7 - to discern against or discriminate as separate.
Scatty - it's very good for you, you know, especially the water variety. Full of iron.
having trouble with the first cr6/21
Rebekb - cr + 2nd vowel + Spanish word for 'sun'.
that must be a brit thing - cause i have no idea what you guys are talking about!
Real meaning, should you wish to know: Any of three isomeric phenols, CH3C6H4OH, used in resins and as a disinfectant.
Helen - take the smelly ce4/5 and add a consonant after the first letter.
helen, what are you confussed about
thanks!
scat - this plant you all are talking about
off to my birthday dinner. 20 to go....
thanks Jac - new word for me!

Hey guys how do you know how many words are in a game?

snowy -- we are all doing great -- all healthy and happy though Mom and Dad are tired most of the time (which is no big surprise)
Any clues for the two words starting with a?
((**Scatty**)) ((**Jac**)) no t ignoring, just have hands otherwise occupied ;) Seb is always fussy around now.
goodnight -- 2593 for my 3rd puzzle, good enough (have to get some work done)!
I have been looking for the "j" work all day. I would love a hint
LOl know the feeling GW - had 2yrs& 2days between mine. Remember thinking it should have been impossible to be so tired & still be standing up! Get your rest when you can.
((**Tigereye**)) - I saw you as well :)
do you know where Nedflanders is
Meows - the 'j' word. Remember Little Jo* in 'Bonanza'? Plural him.
I do my best, snowy -- though I have had a few nights where I have fallen asleep at the keyboard in the past couple of weeks :D
thanks, I had to look it up- means- Sweetheart; dear.
Wolfie - no one knows the true meaning of 'knackered' until they have 2 small children.
rebekb - well done! see you tomorrow maybe
44 words in 15 minutes. not bad. goodnight.
LOL - I did that yesterday! We've had 3 littlies for the weekend and i'm definately not getting any younger!
any clues for 9 letter words?

Any clues for the first re 6/18?
Amanda101 er9 /60 is er5/12 + ne4/4
any clues on lo 6/18? its killin' me :)
Good evening one and all all over the world! I am desperate! Have managed to finish almost all the puzzles for the last few eeks and now I'm stumped! Need 2nd co 5/14 the j se 7/44 last se 5/10 Now is that too much to ask for? Please.
lo 6/18 is plural for above
Hiya Hoot! Was just thinking you might turn up soon. Let me just find my last word and then I'll clue you in.
why is everyone going to bed right now? it's only 5:o6 where I live
re 6/18 re+ name of a red flower, i got one at valentines...
jacula gave a clue for the j at 7pm
lol hootowl -- thanks :) i don't know how i missed that
It's 1.07am in the UK. There are people from many different time zones and parts of the world here, Amanda101.
hootowl -- se 5/10 -- are on the bottom of your shoes
co 5/14, the plural if its the right one
thanks Matkins70gig700, that was stumping me
You should smell the fish around here. Just grope along!
welcome
Thanks but it's the other one.
se 5/10 you are sworn to se so that you cant give clues to anyone else
hootowl what u looking for? (bored finished it and don't want to sleep...)
I'm going to stop when I reach 1,000 points I currently have 918
se 5/10, last one is the plural of the one above it
I'M DONE!
hootowl, how many co's down
hootowl for the j think of the name of the gym in dogeball, it was average jo**
well done jacula, CONGRATS, don't know how to give you fireworks, or you would have had them as well
Back for a few -- but will have to do the bedtime thing for Kristianna in about 45 ((((*****Hootowl*****))))
Thanks, Scatty. BRB, nattering to my daughter right now.
I am more confused now than when I got here! No idea of the name of a dodgeball gym, and the se and co's are already plurals or I'm not in sequence!
oh and scatty - thanks - got that one! And the fish smell gets stronger!
hootowl, have you ever watched the soap friends, the jo is one of the mens name
hootowl, what are you missing now
hootowl -- you drink multiple cups of j**(plural)
any hints for the two "a" words?
do you have the jo yet, its really easy, jo then a vowel then the letter you put on the end of words to make a plurel
The USA without the I and a different vowel at the end! Second is plural
ty hootowl! never heard of those words before, but found them!
I have entered that word at least 6 times today and it waited to embarrass me in public!
I have been on this earth a good long while and I never heard of them or a lot more since I started this!
hoot owl - it sort of rhymes with percy but the last letter is a vowel, the am5 and the am6 is the plural
And I swiped that definition from someone earlier. Don't remember who, but thanks!
Ok - j is done! Now just the co 5/14 and se 5/10
co 5/14 is the present tense of a word for arriving
Just monkeyed the se! It was out of sequence. Now the co
anyone need anymore clues before i disappear off to bed
se 5/10 please?
Don't stay on my account, Scatty -- having just started I only have 32 so I have no Idea what I will need help with yet :D
first one is to be more se4/4 second is plural of 4/4
new to this. what does "se 5/10 please?" mean?
hootowl, did you get the co 6/24, if so take the s off
hmmm, I have 3 se 4/4 and none of them work with that hint :)
Hi Scatty, just looked at your profile - I was originally from Oxon, Woodstock in fact.
Scatty - I thank you. I owe you. All done and the smell of fish shall linger for days!!!!!
hootowl, have you got the 4/6, if so, add an r or an s
err, scratch that "please?" from my question :) so, asking what does "se 5/10" mean?
my son has played footy there
se 5/10 = word starts with "se", 5 letters long, 10 points total
thank you
smapo - 5/10 is a West African language
smapo - the se is telling the first 2 letters of the word, the first number is how many letters, second how many points. There is a list in Bab anon in the box up right. Angelsong has a beginners site there too.
I give in, those re's haunt me, and the cr's were a problem, so I am retiring: about 16 short of target. Ah well, tomorrow is another day!
exwren, i live in Carterton
I must be sicker than I thought. I missed soooooo many obvious words today!
I'm back. Who have I missed and who's still here?
Is that north Oxford?
Woof!!
bye exwren
GW - present.
Night all xxx
ExWren - about to go awol. LOL.

can someone give me a clue for sc8,45 please
not for long jacula, my bones are starting to ache sitting here for so long. i must admit, i think i'm getting a bit better at giving clues, even though sometimes i make a boob
lol jac
sc8 & 9 plural - to harden, as in the lenses of the eyes.
I'm here too but being quiet
Hey, I'm brand new. I have about 87 words so far. Can someone tell me how many words have y and j in them?
thnx jacula
where have you lot been then
Hello, Tigereye. You are one of my favourite gemstones. I have you on keyrings and bracelets, and Celtic cross necklaces.
hi trebuchet, thats not bad for your first attempt, i took ages to get that far, i kept giving up until i realised that there were alot of people to get clues from
have you nearly finished tigereye
42 words to find and then I can go to sleep
Trebuchet, I think it's 3 words with J and 8 with Y...getting that from Babblers Anonymous, link at the right. :)
tigereye, have you left all the hard ones until last
150 words!!! not bad for a first timer eh? \o/
The Tiger eye gemstone is used for focusing the mind. It is said that Tiger Eye offers protection during travel, strengthens convictions and confidence. This very warm stone is beneficial for the weak and sick. It is also the stone for the 9th year of marriage.
Excellent work, python!!
not bad at all python
Not bad at all, Python!
Snap, Scatty!
I've left all the ones I can't see so yeah they're hard :P Sounds like a great stone for me then, I'm hugely indecisive, fairly unconfident and have been ill for three years, lol
Tiger - I know, re the illness; read your profile. You must have chosen the name insinctively.
73 here for _my_ first time. I _still_ rock, though, even with our friendly Python kinkin' butt.
do you know before i started to play babble i used to make my own cards, i would sit there for hours, now i have to make cards as needed as i'm always sat at the computer at night
I'll be back in a little bit, folks -- Kristianna has decided she doesn't want to wait until 9 to go to bed :)
Well I'm a 'chatting finished one' and so I can give clues, should anyone ask...
Hope you're going to read her a good bedtime tale, Wolfie.
Scatty - LOL.
Bam - Hello again.
i'am bck
Ouch, Amanda101. You landed on my head!:-)
re Jac. /me can't believe Jac got all the words!
Thankfully I'm mostly better now Jac, it's just a case of finding my feet again. I missed the last three years of school so not a huge amount of exams got taken
sorry, Jacula
i am seriously stuck clues for the first three se/ 's please
would appreciate a clue for ce7/32 :)
i'm going to have to go, even though i'm enjoying the chatty atmosphire, see you all tomorrow, night everyone, say goodnight to greywoulf for me when the story telling has finished, night night
101 words 4.65 1090 I'm going to bed
seah those who check for bad words, thoughts, ideas
Tigereye - my daughter sort of went through a similar thing, although she did manage and get schooling in the last year. It's never too late to go to college, once you feel able. Just be sure to only take on as much as you truly feel you can manage.
Night scatty - Thanks again
AHHH Thanks Jeff! :)
tx jeffer
ce6 & 7 - all the 'rude' stuff gets edited out of films by him/her/them.
'Night, Scatty. Sleep well. Don't dream of Babbling!
hey helen, jacs! hey all newcomers!
I don' t get it why are people going to bed when it is only 5:50...right?
Timezones.
Hello again, Temple. Done your bit with the littlies for the night then?
Amanda -- some people are in Europe -- or they are fogeys like me who go to bed at 9pm EST LOL
Amanda101 - I posted to you earlier that there are people from all over the world on here, and different time zones. It is now 1.51am in UK.
Jac -- lawd -- you are up late (for me anyway)!
is anyone going to respond to jeffer's request for the first 3 se's? hmmmm, inquiring minds would like to know
Yeah I've looked at evening courses from college and hoping to do one next year. I think I could cope with a few things, its just a case of picking things that I really want to do. I'm hoping to do some volunteer work with kids which should help on a CV
Gui - I'm not called 'Jacula' for nothing! It's one of my late nights.
I love your picture guigrrl. It is so cute. I love dogs.
Tigereye -- IMHO -- you might go and take a few classes and see what sparks your interest :).
Tigereye - Do whatever you can cope with and what's best for you, and that you will enjoy doing.
LOL Jac Amanda -- That is my 12yo dog...she's a great girl.
Helen - I may have been away seeing to laundry or talking to my daughter when Jeffer made his requests. I will see to them now...
jeffers: do you recall a candy called ne*** wafers? think dry.
I'm looking at psychology A level, I started the course twice and had to drop out both times a few months in but it still really interests me, so I thought I'd start with that and see how it goes
lol jac - much appreciated
That's so cute. I wish had a dog or better yet a pet.
go for it Tigereye -- you won't know until you try :)
need help on the 1st ce 4/5
:) kids and pets rule my world (husbands count as pets LOL)
next two: To discern as separate; discriminate. google it.
Jeffer - se5/14 - the art of painting on dry plaster. I gave clues for the next two se's a while back. Scroll back.
Baron - If I can stop laughing at your great screen name, I'll give you a clue.... Sounds like prison rooms minus a consonant.
gui- I saw you lived in the United States. What state do you live in? I live in Northern California
yep amanda -- NC.
a new addict says 2001 is a good place to stop.
one day, I hope to become a clue giver. for now, I'm just a freep.
Oh, cool because, I might move there. But, probbaly not because it is very hard for my dad to get a job more then 200 miles away!
freep you will get to do that sooner than you think:)
aah. it's a nice place.
any clues on co 8,50 (if i scroll past 50 responses, i crash)
I know I went there last year for summer vacation.
cool amanda
Jac- you rock :)
am stuck at sw7/28.. any help??
co + help to build
I've got to go. Trying to do laundry, change sheets and get ready for a bath all at once so not paying attention. Just ate a cold supper cause I forgot about it too. Be back later when I can concentrate. Night.
se7/28 typo ..
thank you turbodog (my fav beer from my college days at LSU)
any hints for the RE 7/32...please and thank you.
The reason I might move there is because my brother wants to go to UNC. I also want to.
UNC is a good school
You went there?
We named our dog Turbodog after visiting Abita Springs and drinking Turbodog ;)
I go to the University of Georgia. Huzzah!
kat: when you feel bad about something you've done.
turbodog -- very very cool amanda -- nope -- but its still a good school :)
am6 or am7, anyone? Thank you!! :)
gui- nice talking to you but we will have to finish this convesation later because, I need to help my mom make dinner.Bye.
ttfn all. tired of sitting at work. my score for first time: 85 words 5.02 1203 (jac, practice safe drinking, huh?)
am6 & 7 - To punish by a fine imposed arbitrarily at the discretion of the court.
Bam - ???
hmmm....the RE 7/32...sorry can't get it. It's my last word and I'm at a loss.
you know, practicing unsafe drinking of blood can lead to orally transmitted diseases.
re7/35re+ rhymes with force
Go the way of the m, Katmayo
Bam - I have no idea what you are typing about.
kat -- feeling after crushing a kitten by accident
er, i thought jacula was a play on dracula. never mind.
thx jacula for the clue. I'm just not getting it, but I'll keep trying. :)
re7/32 - re + code (dot dot dot dash dash dash)
I haven't gotten any 8 or 9 letter words. Can somebody tell me what at least a couple of them start with.
Oh yes, Bam, it is! Sorry! Didn't see what you were getting at. Do now. LOL.
Finally got the word, my only re7/32 is that I didn't realise I have part of the word already. Thanks for the help.
treb: sc8 and sc9 are singular & plural forms of a term meaning "to harden."
co8/50, en8/45, er9/60, sc8/45, sc9/60.
jacula: see my hint to trebuchet on sc8 & sc9. I still can't get the am words for some reason!
epsurreal - thanks for the clues but I've finished the grid. I'm here to give clues.
I am stumped on the harden work, I looked up hardening of the eyes and stll going ???
oh, my mistake. I thought you were asking for those words.
epsurreal if you go to angelsong page and go to reverse dictionary and paste the clue it will come up with words that are possible
Yeah I just can't figure it out either.
The 'am words: sound a bit like a 'co******' word, meaning business, or an im***** word, meaning to submerge in liquid.
sc8 & sc9: sounds like part of a disease. like "multiple _______"
Hello all, back for my last 99...shorty did you change icons or was I just not paying attention earlier?
no its the same one LOL
Ep - a fellow writer, I see, reading your profile.
ahh, got 'em. Thanks jacula.
Hiya, Kristinc.
Thanks, ep.
yes, I am, Jacula. Are you too? Very cool. :)
Cool indeed, Ep.
Hi Jacula. Okay shorty, no suprise that I don't remember. Cute icon anyhow.
ty
The harden word I had about an hour ago, but stupid me was not spelling it right!
yeah meows, this is like a different form of that word.
I'm back - daughter is in bed and son is on my chest -- hopefully he will go to sleep soon :)
Ok, nite all I am at 100 words for my 2nd time at puzzle. And that is good for me. Thank you all for clues
aw! cute GW! Hello...
good job, meows. Have a great night :)
ahh what a great dad GW
and now a new icon -- it is hard to make out, but it is from one of my favorite webcomics -- Queen of Wands -- it says Read above the main character, Kestrel :)
GW --- do you have twins? I have an 11mo/old (who is, thankfully, sleeping)
hey woulfie! jacs are u here? need a clue please for the me5/12 that is not a plural - it's below another me5/12
nope -- my daughter is 2 1/2, my son is all of 7 weeks old :)
((**Temple**))
GW -- so cute! I hope you are getting *some* rest :)
Temple - I was away but now I'm back. The me5/12 you seek is: a lord who holds land of a superior, but grants a part of it to another person, in which case he is a tenant to the superior, but lord or superior to the second grantee, and hence is called the me*** lord.
It's been in the grid before, Temple.
ok let me chew on it - multitasking tonight
guigrrl - Oh, I get my rest... it usually lasts until my nose hits the monitor ;D
hahahaha GW!! I'll be there again soon (hopefully :)
can anyone give another hint for co 8/50?
Good Morning all :)
((**Dianne**))
co+er 6/21 (to build) is the co7 the plural is the co8
Hi Dianne!
I don't have any of the a's! I'm stuck!
hi dianne! : )
Can anyone give me a clue for the 1st re6/18 (at least I think it's the 1st one I need). It is the one before "mailed again".
thanks kristin
yep-no problem
A + last part of Chamber of Co******
need a hint for se7/32...
hint for om 5/12?
diane got up again or (flower) again
se 7/32: plural of se 6/21 se 6/21-se+ the ending to dis**** (distinguish or seperate)
thanks kris :)
jeffer - thank you so much. I couldn't see that one at all.
kristinc ta for the se been dancing around it for hours!
diane yw
no worries, one of the few I have! any help from anyone on the first co 6/24 and co 7/36?
trebuch - do you have the om4? If so make it plural. If not think about what you call hitting the ball out of the park but drop the first letter.
kris - look at am6/24
kris: co6 & co7 are singular & plural of "force"
thank you, that'll do! :)
Thanks, I apparently just got confused about the points. So I was looking for it the wrong way.
I just re6/18 so I could do my dance of joy for finishing this thing :) I've got a little time if anyone needs any clues.
congrats Dianne!
cr 7/32 please
how about en8?
and es 7/32 too...
cr7/32 - one is the plural of the cr5/12 for the other just change the last letter to the next letter in the alph.
re 5/14 & re 6/24 the first 2? please :)
en8 - it means "bewitch". en + 4 letter word for ache (used a lot in this grid) drop the last vowel and add first 3 letter of a mobile phone.
thank you so much! never heard of that word. :)
Good one Diane!
re1 & 24 - think of another word for "family room" for the first 3 letters -then double the last letter and add a vowel. Make it plural for the 6/24
thanks for the clue dianne.
whoooooooooo done!
anyone for er9? Thank you!
er9 - think about standing as straight as you can. Starts of like the metal building set and ends like the lake monster.
er9 builds on er5/12
got it...thank you!
Good evening all! WOW!!! Am I in the right room *mamabear goes and checks the number on the chat door*..... so many new names!!!!! Welcome, everybody!
Could I please get another clue for en9 besides bewitch? I am having a hard time finding a word other than enchant, but that is not there.
se 6/18 and so 6/18 please
Hi. I'm new here. First puzzle. What do those shorthand thingies mean? me5/12?? co 8/50? wha-a-a-a-a??? Thanks
hi Mamabear...right place...just lots of new friends. Good to see you!
I mean en8, sorry!
Dianne's clues = nOOb dashing for the pen and paper...hmmm...wow.
and such clever names.... "towerofbabble"... I LOVE it! Hi Kristinc..... how are you? Check out my icon - it's a pic of a mamabear and her TRIPLETS - born recently at a zoo in the Netherlands..... first time ever having triplets... usually they only have 1 or 2 cubs.....
just gotr es/33 [did I say that right]?
trit - me5/12 - means the word starts with Me, is five letters long and the points for each letter add up to 14.
kraj en 9 see Diane's 9:04
diane, ahhhhh! Thanks
co 7/36 please
triplets...now that is one tired mamabear!
Glad you like the name MamaB...although right now I'm more of a 'ground floor' of Babble.
se 6/18 and so 6/18 please
I still have 100 words to go! I'm feeling stupid!
she's just like ME, kristinc..... mamabear3cubs!!!!!
jacs - if you are still here, thanks for the clue for me5/12. mamabear! how the heck are you?!!!
hint for se6/30???? these se's are bugging me to no end!
Thanks, Jeffer. I will try that clue.
my heck is just fine, Temple.... how YOU doin?
co7/36 x 2 - the first one is when someone sore of forces you to do someing. the second one is when you build together.
marquee did you find the stats list either at angelsong page or at Babblers anon?
oh ofcourse! thank you so much
how many other newcomers followed the link from boing boing?
I did Jeffer! I'm stuck on the a's!
moi boing boing
I followed the boing boing link
fine... but no one has recognized my icon...yet
mama-not all 3 at once I hope!
me boing boing!!
militant platypus for me
marqee think of chamber of com***** and then pluralise
TO- is it Curious George?
boing boing also
Temple - it's george, isn't it?
temple-teddy ruxbin?
se6/16 - Think Se*** and Se***ability. Dorp lat vowel and add word that goes with "** ELSE !"
i give t-owl - who is he???
*feels truly ancient* it's zippy...my borhter chewed the fingertips off of him...i was not happy!
se 6/18 and so 6/18 PLEASE
hi all.
no, kristinc.... not all at once, thank God!!!
Jeffer - For the en8 clue - I could just let this go, but it is really bugging me! The first three letters of a mobile phone? Does that mean the name of a mobile phone?
So6/18 - think of the person who bleeps you on T.V. but start the word with So.
what's the max score possible on this puzzle?
Jeffer! Thanks~
((**Ren**)) ((**Doxy**))
hi doxy. Sorry temple, I was sequestered as a child?!? :)

yikes... i thought i was doing pretty good with near a 1000
Sasquatch...where?!? haylp!

ne5/10 - Ne + actor's part - just drop the last letter. Then make it plural for the6/18.
yeah... i'm short, hairy, and from the northwest.... lol
hi ren! *sulks because mama did not give her even a little cub hug*

It's a pity, they will probably never show 'Song of the South' again -- too controversial :(
Hi Jac!!!!!!!!! we're just singin in the rain, just singin in the rain.... what a glorious feeling... I'm happy again.....

Mama - I think you mean 'Here Comes The Sun'. courtesy of my kinda cousin, George!
*^*^*^*^*^FIREWORKS&*^*^*^*^*^ *^*^ for TEMPLE!!!!!
kristi -- I remember when they tried to have a rerelease in the theaters about 15 years ago -- the critics panned it for painting such an unrealistic portrayal of life on the plantation
Well, yes, Jac.... literally.......
doxy - do you follow hockey? sound like mark re****(flyers player)
GW-yeah it kind of has a cult following now though.
I got it, but by monkey typing. sorry temple
))Hug for you, Mama & will play Here Comes The Sun for you(((

That's nice to hear, kristi -- especially since I would love to see it again -- I only ever saw it when it was first in the theaters at the drive in!!

Someone help with er 5/10 and 6/18, please?

Hiya Ren, Wolfie again and anyone else I've missed. Loving this sing along. Wish we could post flash swf's on here!
ow, ow, ow! My foot has been asleep for the past 5 mins and circulation is beginning to return!!! :D
help with en5/20
Just for the record... I don't want the newbies to think I am rude... and not helping with giving clues... it's just that I didn't do the grid today :(
cindasu (second) ce 6 plural of prev 4/5
Lol, Wolfie, I can see you hopping around and rubbing it ( your foot, that is).
Could I get a clue for the very first er 4/4?
you want to "flash single white females"?
never mind. got it!
me too everyone...i've been in a meeting debating all day, and i just want to be silly!!! i'll be good tomorrow...i promise!!!
Boy. How rude, mama .
Shadow, I don't understand your clue.
no hopping, Jac -- I still have Seb in my lap and am feeding him!
which 1?
ha p - er4/4 - it sounds like an ea word for what you make at your job. It's used a lot in Babble.
cindasu se 6/30 build on se 5/18 se + (three letter word for in a line)
hey hey torg!!!!
lol mama!
((**tor**)) -- Love your icon!
tx jeffer
Heyas kids. A man of discerment, GW.
Ha! I got a rise outta ya, Torgone!!!!!!!
Harp - you're an old hand, of course you got it! Simple rules of Babble, if it looks like it might be a word, it's not. If it sounds like it might be a word, it probably is. If it looks nothing like a word you've ever heard before, then it definitely IS a word.
Tor! You are the Mr. Bluebird on my shoulder....... (please don't poop)
still stuck on the first cr 6/21...fishy fishy? I have the plural 6/21 that is a brand of toothpaste but am missing the first and one more cr 6/21.
Well, they are blue birds. But not bluebirds.
jacula true, true lol
Mama -- now I have Shrek in my head!! (when Fiona blows up the bluebird) :D
Wolfie - that's a far slower process then, with a baby on your lap. Hurts far more!
cr6/21 - the first one - Cr+ vowel + botton of shoe just drop last letter.
GW - bet you can't wait to go to sleep for THOSE dreams!!!!!
tx again jeffer, your name same as nickname for my son
but seriously, help with the en5/10 (only 2 to go, that one & the 6, which i think i can get on my own)
kristin cr 6/21 - second vowel = spanish son
GW--NOOOOOOO! DON'T BLOW UP THE BLUEBIRD ON THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING....... NOOOO!
details, details, torg! Bluebirds, blue birds.... what a difference a space makes! ...... only twenty-four hours........
help with the AM words?
not me!!!! It was Fiona!
ooh-cr 6/21, new word to me...thanks!
HELEN it sounds like "to sign up for"
last Cr6/21 - think of the word for "household ch****" Just start it with Cr.
thanks Dianne-I needed that one too
harp - THX - i must have monkey typed all around that! finally done!
The Bluebird toffee factory is just down the lanes from where I live. Unfortunately, the the Bluebiird logo is still there now, it's home to a firm that make garden furniture. Mind you, I do have to say I was never a fan over their toffees. I preferred Cadbury's chocolate (founding firm also not far away.)
rennie... where'd you go *mamabear looks under the table*......... don't leave me to silly alone!!!!
hooary hk!
What about a clue for cr - 7/32? Thank you.
*^*^*^*^*^*^FIREWORKS*^*^*^*^* ^*^ FOR HELENKELLER!!!

wooo hooo helllllllennnnnnn!
co 8/50 pretty please???
I only have one of the cr 7/32s One of them is the plural of the cr 5/12 just above it.
yaaaay helen!
cr 7/32 == cr 5/12 plural
kraj - first is plural of 5/12, for 2nd change last letter for next in alphabet
Oorah helen!
kraj change last letter of the other 7
co8/50 plural of 7/36
thanks for cr 7/32

It's definitely a time killer, kristin.
Oh-Oh, say can you see..... all the se's.... if you can, than the grid's too short...... down to here, down to there... down to where they're not by themselves....
yw - good night everyone - am having out of town company on weds, gotta get ready tomorrow, so i may not see you guys for a few days - hope the withdrawls aren't too bad

My 5/18 is a tumor
I am not super crazy about the game, but I have a problem resisting a challenge.....
We'll try to carry on, helen.
bye helen, have fun with your company

Thanks anyway Chic, I appreciate it :)
cr6 - cr + vowel + bottom of shoe - drop last letter.
Yes, I'm sure I'll always be fond of my first time, oh, wait, you mean the game ;-)
Hi all...This is my first time trying this. I haven't signed up for Babble Pro, so I don't know how close I am. I have 108 words. Am I close?
Gees both of those are beauts! cr - think the syn tacked on to the cr + second vowel my + round vowel and mother

my 5/18 is a tumor
Half way pBo - 199 tonight. There is a list in BabAnon to help you
Yikes! Thanks. I need more practice.

Annnnnnnd Done!!
Yay and Woot, GW!
bird's beak?? i don't get that one.
Thanks once again for the help ((*Hugs to all*))
Hooray - now off to bed! And no one said anything when I finished.
Is it sad that I Am happy with 107 words and this is my second puzzle or am I just that lame?
dino- with 12 minutes to go and only 99 words (darn work) i'd be happy with 107 :(
dino - be happy - you are doing great - and having fun.
Neither - first game you haven't figured out the inherent weirdness. It gets better. And scary when you realise you are starting to remember the weird ones!
my5?
dino -- be satisfied with what you have and be proud!! The game is not about finishing, but about having fun! Never call yourself lame where I can hear you or I will be forced to prove you wrong!
my + circle letter + short for mother.
my5 - substitute the my for the c in the 1st co4/6
huge request -- clues for first re 5/14, 5/24, and 7/28 -- all first.
Woulf you didn't tape the Dr did you?
thanks GW
No I didn't Hoot -- my recorder doesn't seem to be compatible with my TV, but I can get the episodes from the neighbors to view on the computer if you like :)
or more accurately, compatible with my cable box
Send an e-mail w/details. BF will be able to figure it out better than I will. I'm in awe.
'nite, Hoot and Congrats on finishing!
mab re7 - plural of the 6 above. 5/14 - rhymes with pilgramage place 5/24 a niche/set back spot
Thanks for the congrats chic but I'll be here for the flip. And maybe this time my cmp won't lock up!
Thank very very much Dianne.
107 with no dictionaries, 2nd game...
mab - you are welcome - but I need to learn how to spell.
sorry, thought you said you were leaving. I better open the other eye now! For you newbies out there; the only time we're really competetive is at the flip, looking for the biggest words first!
Is THAT whats going on! I thought the competion was first post! And the rest just showing off:D
Oh well, whatever blows up your skirt, Hoot!
cool. I didn't know that, either
last call
Is the Babble server still giving problems?
Third time out, 112 words for 1714 points. How's that?
