GW wait when she starts talking boys usually takea bit more time to develop
can anyone tell me how many words there are today?
andy -- she is very verbal already -- she has been talking for months, but her converstaions have really started taking off in the past few weeks. She is also a major bibliophile already -- we have been reading to her since she was 6 months old :) Now most nights she is 'reading' her books to us!

I remember when the youngest one was about 3, we were flying overseas (first class, company paid) and she was in the lunge wit us - she had her book adnd simlple walked oer toa gentleman maybe 50 and told him "Can you please read me this book".. and he did it was really fun
Her latest trick is to greet me when I get home by announcing my arrival (which she has done for a while now) and then she asks me, "So, how was your day?"
funny my kids usually jump up and down and yell DADDY DADDY
That's a great story, andy :)
awww that's so cute!!!!!
yep we cherish it dearly
T 8/45

To jump to an unrelated topic -- it is definitely springtime -- my cat Twitch has been in my lap for all of a half hour and she has already shed a kitten from the intermittent pettin's I have been giving her :D

I have it as well now that I have actually looked at the board instead of chatting ;)
ok guys
Losing my satelite connection tonight, so I going to say bye early just in case....Not spring here yet, suppose to get more snow Fri/Sat :(
andy -- no slight intended-- just we typically don't start cluing for at least the first hour - or all the biggies have been found -- whichever comes first :)
God night Schroeder - there is spring here in calgary and am heading to mountains to ski tomorrow
ok I am learning all the tiem - this is my 5th grid :-)
Yeah, they are were saying something about that on my weather channel as well, Schro, but my cats don't watch TV ;D

Weslie got it! Was mentally puttin in wy everytime! Couldn't wrap around yw.
still not getting it... I am especially dense. :) I've got three of them, but the fourth I cannot get... (the ones I've got, the clues would be em+sibling, em+insect, em to do with feelings) gah, this puzzle kills my brain sometimes.
ok albo, there's another one to do with feelings
good nite everyone - gonna save the remainder for tomorrow & let sudoku put me to sleep the rest of the way

Well, I'm 84 words in and haven't slowed yet... but that just means I have nearly a hundred still to find... nice words, though. Sprite's favourite 4 letter Babble word is in here, too :)
Kept seeing ma8 (regal) which isn't there but if you remove the ma you have g6
Hadn't got that yet, tbear, thanks :)
Can't believe I'm finally sewing up the hem on my daughters jeans after she has dragged them round the streets of Bristol for months. Decided I was fed up of taking out the safety pins every time I washed them. Hell,I'm so not domesticated!!
Me5/12 - satellite of Jupiter
I hadn't looked at your profile, tbear... Bristol is my hometown :) Say hi for me :)
Will do Trishtrash....me too,which part hun?
Born in Fishponds, have lived in Kingswood & Kinsgdown (near Cotham/Clifton way) too... whereabouts are you?
Any of you in London? I lived there for a couple of years when I was a little kid.
I was born in London
im done
grats
GOOD LORD Oggy! how do you do it?
congrats oggy :) thanks for the satellite, Uladaas
Grandparents (now gone) had a newsagents on the fishponds rd for years then retired to Alcove Road...spent a lot of my childhood in the park/woods,Snuff Mills. Great grandparents lived and are buried in Kingswood,Mum born in Kingswood. Have lived most of my time in Bristol,Henleaze,Redland,Clift on and am currently living by the Downs just off Blackboy Hill....small world eh!!
I am sorry to cause you people so many pericombobulations
i use a2z wordfinder. it helps a lot
so it would, so it would....
I loved the Snuff Mills/vassels (oldbury) estate :) that place was my sanctuary ... You're in a lovely area now too, you lucky thing!
Well this is my best ever yet without looking at Babblers anon for help. Got 49 so far
One leg done....one to go....aaaaaaggggghhhhhh hate sewing
*snort* I envy your domestic skillz ... whenever I sew, I get random bits of material / whatever I'm wearing attached to fabric.
poor tb, i take my repairs over to my mothers, so don't think it ends when she leaves home :p
Rlee...you're kidding!! I've told my two that once they leave..I'm gunna do what I'd been considering before the baby bug got me...I'm off to south America and all they'll have is a Post Office Box Number....and I'm not joking...have sacrificed 16 years...time to recoup!!
My washing machine unpicks my sewing
LOL Trishtrash that has happened to me...even skin...
hope you get your dream then
Thanks Rlee....truth is I know I won't be able to,or even want to abandon them...a Mum is a Mum....forever....as MY Mum will testify!!
wi4/8 - Something that Tbear is ;)
maybe a holiday for a year or so one day will happen
hush ulu, your taking the garbage out and mowing the lawns when were married, and doing your own ironing :p
Oh really, I dont see a wife in this puzzle ;)
I may be a mother....but NOT a wife.....permenantly and happily single and intending to stay that way....Lol
Although I did have some help making the little sweethearts....
We've been thinking of moving abroad, tbear, but like you if we had any kids we'd want them to start their own lives in the UK first, I think.
Although..it's a great experience...from the age of 10 I was brought up in Spain (in the 70's before the coasts became so spoilt) and it was a fabulous experience and mind widening...
That must have been a great adventure :) Not that growing up in Bristol didn't have it's moments ;)
Wargh, you all wanna try growing up in *dramatic music* ST ALBANS Raaar...check out the wild ravers down by that Cathedral...:/
Good morning all. IT lesson, Miyavi?
Morning Haz lol, Miyavi, things too quiet for you?
Nope, I'm off school today...my feeble excuse is that I can't walk XD add randomly-collapsible legs and PE class and you've got a Miyavi_Fan pate...
Ahhh Miy......:))
Heh...Trish, I'm saving all my *youthful exuberance~* for when I get to Halajuku. THEN I'll show 'em...XD
LOL Bear...what's with that look? :)
Now is it fair to take out years of Cathedral town life on an unsuspecting country, Miy? ;)
Trish, of course it's fair...they've been taunting me with their freedom to go to gigs and dress how they want for TOO long :) which reminds me, why isn't 'goth' a word? I'm turning INTO one lol :)
yuck yuck yuck. This one doesn't look like any fun. Morning all. How many (or few) are we going for today?
*blinks at the fact that there's a tm6/21 word in the grid* morning amandacath :)
Amanda, I say a maximum of 10 and then plead insanity...
ROFLMAO.....youngest child came to retrieve freshly sewn up jeans and exclaimed....'are my legs really that short?' Of course now she'd not trailing bits of jeans in the gutter they do look shorter.....ahhh motherhood
sorry, 172
LOL Tbear!!! I love wearing clothes that follow me around for several miles :D
Okay, I'm out of here for a bit... have fun Babbling, everyone :)
woo! I got an 8 :)
later, Trish, and nice one, Twistypigeon! cool name as well XD
trish, did you say tm?
Miy...I know its fashionable but when you shake them out before sticking in the washing machine...half a garden falls out on the kitchen floor and if it's wet then a muddy spatter covers both floor and ceiling....my two are 15 and 16,i have had my fair share of trailing trousers....
Isn't a moog some kind of electric-guitar-jimi-hendrix sort of thing?
Tbear, all part of the fun...trousers are useless if you can't stor a plot of land, a mobile phone and a snack inside the ends
i think moog is the name of a guy who built and branded electronic instruments... I think he died recently didn't he?
*store which reminds me, my best friend and I dressed up in full visual kei over the weekend...including the scary makeup, long black gloves, etc, and went up into town to scare people. We went into a coffee shop and were asked to leave!!
woo-hoo! I got 2 7's all by my self! are you guys sure there are 172 words in there?
Amanda, that is what is known as a jealous silence :)
They're both names of movies, coincidentally.
what do the 7 letter words start with??
I've got 1 n7 and 1 t7 - don't know if there are more
ok thanks 4 that
There's a nice re 8/45 - the furthest away place
ahh - re's. thx Haz.
There's another superlative - ro7/28
Morning dear gang :)
Good morning, Sprite.
Sprite! You're late to the board this fine morning!
also to8- could be describing a type of smile & ey8 that's kind of connected to the to8
top o' the mornin', Sprite :)
Yeah, I know, had to see my boss this morning, to talk about coming back. And in about 5 minutes I have to leave for the physiotherapist. But I'll be back ;)
Miyavi, darrrrrrling! Long time no see. How are you?
lovely, Ishult! thx for those!
great thanks, Sprite! ^^ how goes it for you?
morning...
Morning Angel!
Hello, angelsong - you're up bright and early.
sprite....hello darling girl :)
sprite, how's your page?
I had to get up; leg cramps, big time.
That's horrible. It's not nice being up when you'd rather be comfortable in bed.
there is a me/7
Haz, I like your icon :) It's making me smile!
Well, Miyavi - in the words of the advertising jingle, 'Smartie people are happy people, they smile all the time.'
LMAO!! I'll have to remember that! :D
I'm not seeing that me7, jojo. Any help?
me7- The process of cell division
its a type of cell division. if u have found my/6 it will help
Ah, got it. Thx!
hiya Miya!! ((( hugs ))) hi all : D
got all th 8's. still looking for 2 7's got me,ne,re & ro/ what am I looking for?
HEY BABS! XD how're you?
does anyone have a clue for the ro?
Ishult, there's a to7 - think Dustin Hoffman How many 8's?
ro7- the pinkest
jojo -ro7 = most pink
ro 7 - think of girls with flushed cheeks
good thanks, Miya. you? not at school today? :)
There are 3 8 letter words.
ah thankyou, got it now
thanks amanda, just one more 7
ls, have u got the st/7 one?
nope Babs, I'm off today...I'm apparently anaemic...need to keep on taking tablets until my legs feel like supporting me again, lol XD
Keep eating smarties, as well. They're the cure for most ills - except obesity of course! And diabetes, come to think of it.
oh dear, sorry to hear that. lots of eggs and stuff for you. or is it spinach? do as you're told and eat what they tell you, lol! :D
chocolate is rich in iron !!!!!!!! :D:D:D
LMAO Haz!! Babs...except for the choc...I like Haz's suggestion better :) Smarties, one of the four major food groups...along with maltesers...of COURSE...
I can't find the st7 - it's my last biggie....
I was sick to my stomach when I heard that Nestle had forsaken the smartie tube and replaced it with some stupid hexagonal arrangement. I have never bought them since. At least, not in the stupid hexagonal things....
st7 - think Cubans
think along the lines of a person who allows themself to be used for another's profit or advantage
does anyone know what the 8's start with?
wait a minute.I'm finished and I don't have an St7. What's up with that?
ummmm.... I've got a cuban 6 and a dumb person 6 - can't get a 7 out of either one of them though...
ey 8/55 re 8/45 to 8/45
sorry, my fault, i either cant spell or i miscounted
I agree, Haz. There's no fun if you can't make the packet into a 'telescope' and pretend to be a pirate afterwards...
so we're still missing a 7: me, ne, re, ro, to what's left?
there's an mo 7.
oh thanks miam. seems like an obvious one now
beep beep...I'm going to go get a shower :) If I don't come back for an hour, I've collapsed and drowned XD laters!
Yay - big ones done and only 78 to go!
Before you go, put me out of my misery and tell me what XD means.
it's when you grin and close your eyes, Haz : )
Thank you - I'll get the hang of all this jargon yet!
(or at least, that's how I interpret it!) : )
I've got one z-word. Does it (the z) get used any more?
There are 2 z words.
re8 is my last 8, and I can't see it. any clues?
Angel - the farthest away
haz are there any clues for the z's?
The z I have is something that comic-book heroes would say while taking care of villains.
Got that one fairly early on, Haz. Can't believe it's allowed
It's zo 5/28. The other z is a work in progress as I haven't looked at the list yet. (It's the fashionable thing to do)
And I found the other z as well. BJ says the z gets used 7 times...2 z words and 5 others that have it in them
angel - think the far away in a difficult place to find.
ah thanks. ive got 1 of them now
I did get the r8, thanks :)
angel, u change the channel with it
the second z is "a flat sandal with thongs, usually made of straw or leather" Japanese, I think. zo4/9
Thanks, amandacath.
No prob. I'm trying to find the others with z in them and not getting far. I've got one that's a chemistry thing, but that's all. And there's no arizona nor horizon, een though I keep seeing them... *grumble, grumble*
here's a new one for you (at least it was for me!): tm6/21: separation of the parts of a compound word by one or more intervening words; for example, where I go ever instead of wherever I go
It's a new one for me, and I have done a lot of grammar in my day!
need the mo7 and ne7. I have the others...
I majored in a foreign language, and I certainly don't recall that one ever coming up in the many linguistics classes!
mo7 = mo4/6 but even more so.........
mo 7 is a comparative adjective for mo**y
^^; he he he...can I ask, what does everyone thing about ghosts? Real or not? :/
Angel - the mo is "more like a butterfly", the ne is a nasty greek goddess
ne 7 - retribution, or harmful justice
Why Miya? My opinion: ghosts are like deities, I'll find out if they exist when I'm dead and not before, so why bother worrying
Couple of people I know are making a ouija board...I've been asked to join in. And I'm scared :)
Hello!
Bye all......time to join my hubby for dinner. Happy hunting :)
MRP's tick box list is a good tool, but for the last couple of days it's been missing at least one entry each day. did anyone bring that to her attention?
Day before yesterday she caught herself and mentioned in the log that she'd forgotten one. Don't know about yesterday, I didn't scroll back far enough to see
Miya - hmmm. Well, IF you believe in ghosts, why would you assume they would want to do something harmful to you?
3rd time here. Gotta play TOONTOWN. Good-bye!
hmm...true...but mein Mutter made a ouija board when she was a little older than me, with some friends, they had some weird stuff going on :/
Miyavi - don't get caught up in things like that. You mentioned in the chat log before that you are a Christian. Ask your minister for advice.
good idea :) Thanks Haz!
I had an intersting day yesterday. As part of my annual physical, I did a sleep study to find out if I have sleep apnea. Went to the doctor, and he told me: "you are strangling in your sleep." normal score is 5; time for concern is when the score gets to 25. mine was 65, with one spike to 165. so yes, I have "severe" sleep apnea. CPAP machine is in process.
Angel - glad to hear that you've found out in time! You'll probably find a big difference in how you're feeling in yourself if they get the sleep thing sorted. You'll probably whizz through the grid everyday from now on, leaving us panting in your wake!
speaking of those linguistics classes - now I understand that stupid-head yw word! The German word from the same root is gewiss, and I remember the ge-prefix gets mutated to a y somehow or other. "Ye Olde Shoppe" had something to do with it *digs in memory and comes up with no answer*
I took linguistics for one year at university - talk about taking language apart and putting it back together! Phonemes and transformational grammar are still words to bring me out in spots.
Well, Angel, I guess at least you'll never miss that ap5 when it turns up in the grid again, as it seems to do fairly often. What _is_ sleep apnea, exactly?
Sleep apnea is when you stop breathing in your sleep... screy stuff.
scary, I mean...
same thing, Jera :)
ooh. before I continue to embarrass myself any longer, wassa theme for today?
Hey Miya, glad to see you again, hon! {{{MIYA}}}
Somehow I managed to get through my MA without having to do transformational grammar. Although from what I know about it, I must say I think I may have liked it - I'm wierd that way. Horribly tedious things like logic puzzles have always been a fave
*BIG HUGS* thanks!!! :)
Hi Jera! That does sound scary - I'm sure they'll get you all straightened out, Angel.
Hello all. We've had the nicest size grids lately. Oh dear, maybe I shouldn't say that :{ We don't want to draw the wrath of the babble god.
I have always liked grammar when it relates to a particular language. The problem with the sort of grammar we were doing in linguistics was that it was so theoretical.
I had it as a child, had to be hooked up to a machine at night to sound alarm if I stopped breathing...
Is the theme magazines? *dunce cap*
Give that girl a round of applause! You've got it, Miyavi!
wooo! *goes to the top of the class*
Oh, and good morning, gramma.
Mornin Gramma! Wow, you're up early - how can you think at that time of the morning?
oh, good grief. Haz, you're my Wise Woman Of The Forest mentor-type for today. Do I go with SHOXX magazine, or Gothic Lolita Bible? *decisions, decisions*
They both sound ..... interesting. Did you never consider 'My little pony' or 'Barbie, the Ken-less years'?
I can't think....I have a cold and couldn't sleep.
*gasps* but HAZ...those are Big Girls' magazines :) Ah, GLB, no question XD
BRB Coffee calling
Allll done...*what a good girl I am*
I've refreshed. Thank goodness, I can't make out a thing. Looks good, Miyavi!
LOL Haz..."thank goodness" :) I'm searching for a clearer one, AS WE SPEAK. I will MAKE you see XD
Gotta go wake the household... later, all!
Good morning everyone. Have to run and feed the cat. He has a new ploy...if I don't respond quickly enough to his whining, he wakes my husband up, knowing that he will say "Haven't you fed the cat yet?"Not bad for an animal with a brain the size of a walnut. I'd consider it the conscious use of a tool(-:
top o' the mornin', Eva :) THERE...you can just about see...if you, er, squint...
Morning Eva!
hi Miyavi! What am I squinting for?
Bye, Jera. I'm going to take a break as well. I've got some errands to run but I'll be back later. Miyavi - I'm happy to stay wondering..
evening lovelie ppl
lol Eva...not just you, everyone! :)
morning Amanda!
hey, Jera...give me about ten minutes to get done tinkering, then go look at the Resource page :)
heehee...Haz...probably safest :) You get some, er, interesting stuff in there
okay-what are we all squinting for?
trying to see if anyone can actually make out the words on my icon :)
Good afternoon, everyone.
Nope, Miya - what is it?
Hi Jac!
pffft...it is, actually, unreadable. le poo :/
:) I borrowed an idea (and expanded on it a little) from MrP's stats list. You will note a change in the sidebar of the resource page. Jera, there is a section of the content that may interest you.
there. If the word SHOXX isn't readable on this one I give up :)
I'm being lazy, Angel. What'd you change - it didn't jump out at me at first glance
I can read it, Miyavi.
your eyesight is better than mine, Jackie :)
Jacki?! JAC! LOL!
Miyavi - It was one of my regular magazines when I was a teenager.
please help fo 6 needed. doing my nut
heh...my magazine I have to order off the internet, issue by issue (and then translate >.<)!
grim - if I had it I'd help.
Grim - Sorry, don't have it yet. Only just got here with 105 words so far.
thanks for the thought
do we know how many points the fo6 has?
fo 6 = 42 points
Ah, so the word has to add up to 14. *Peers closely at grid.*
miyavi_fan, do you remember a mag called Loving? It was published around the same time as Jackie. I used to edit it!
Got it! ummmm.... more like the bear on the Muppet Show?
Hydra, really?! I've never heard of the mag but that must have been great work!
Hydra - Did you? I used to have it every week. Got a lot of my early recipes from it.
The mag started in the mid 70's, I was fiction ed, then ed, from '84-'94 and it was a brilliant job. I worked in the next office to Just Seventeen. Remember that one?
got it from your clue. thank you. thats me done. going to shop. bye all
YW!
ow...blimey. I was drumming along to a song yesterday, before I realized it was 30 minutes long...now my neck hates me :)
Hydra - Yes, I do. I used to buy it occasionally.
Now I need to become a pro member and get an icon like yours. I keep saying I will and I haven't got round to it yet.
Hydra. Do it. Now. Now. Now.
...before I have a temper tantrum. I can and will :)
(hydra goes into hiding while trying to find credit card and, even more important, credit card bill.)
LOL, I'm not that scary, am I? my SINGING, on the other hand...*clears throat* alright! who wants some o' this?!
Er... Don't call us....
Is it safe to turn my speakers back on yet?:-)
*glares* okay, you're asking for it...*ahem* "Oyasumi no kisu wa shite agerannai mitai dakara, gomen na, dakara utau yo. korede "oaiko"tte no wa doukana..." *dogs begin to howl*
Can you translate?
actually, I may as well sing in English. Could help XD "WHOOOO-OOOOAH, SWEET CHILD O'MIIIIINE..."
Is someone strangling a cat?:-)
Yup, Hyrda...after a while, I can :) "It seems like I can't give you a Goodnight kiss, so I'm sorry, so I'll sing. With this, can I say it's a "tie"" ...lines from an MYV song
*puts the cat down guiltily* er, no...*cough*
My turn now. Er-hem: (lilting soprano). "With a hey nonny-no and away we go..."
LOL.
okay. now I've got to do my mega-passionate, sobbing, clinging to the mic-stand lines. "ART OF LIFE...an eternal bleeding heart You never wanna breathe your last Wa-nna live Can't let my heart kill myself Still I'm feeling for... A rose is breathing love...in my life" THANK YOU BABBLE! *bows*
How does this point system work? I see that ci4/5 is worth 5 points, but on the board, the letters only add up to 4. When I get ci5/12, it adds up to 12 points but there are only 5 points on the board. How does that work?
Like so: 4-letter word = 1 x Points 5-letter word = 2 x Points 6-letter word = 3 x Points 7-letter word = 4 x Points 8-letter word = 5 x Points 9-letter word = 6 x Points
Thank you.
clapclapclapclap. Well done Miyavi_fan, you're just won X-Factor.
*gasps* Oh, Hydra, me?! *recieves bouquet of roses and greets the thunderous applause* *wipes eyes* I'd...*sob* like to thank X Japan for the song that helped you all see how truly fantastic and amazing I am! And of course Hydra, for making me sing! And...*sob* and...*sob*, I'd like to thank *sob* BABBLE!
how many words are there today?:)
172 words today.
thanks jac
Yes, you! Flashbulbs go off. Press cluster round. Contracts are thrust under Miyavi_fan's nose. But THEN.. she's told that due to nonstop touring and recording schedules, there will be NO TIME FOR BABBLE EVER AGAIN!!!

Yes, musicmom... the Sprite has only made it to school one day this week... no fencing tonight or kite festival tomorrow, looks like!
Hi, I'm new. What is the list your talking about? Where do you get it?
Ohhhhhh bummer! Poor little one! bad to miss school and hard to miss the fun stuff.
Gelebabe, the place you can usually find it is BabblersAnon - there's a link under "friends of babble" in the corner :) that'll give you the stats for the puzzle
Hello, I'm back for more torture. I got 95 yesterday :)

musicmom, I love your icon... a big hit around here...
Very nice Capone. An excellent choice. When is she coming back?
Hey, MM!
LOL Capone! That's lovely :) When is she coming back? She can't be on maternity leave from Babble!
Thanks Jera. I saw one laying on the living room floor and that's how I decided todays Icon.Hi Angelsong.
sunday 8(
I'm not so much chatting today. Just pretty much begging my way thru the grid. ME7? please.
Can someone please do me a favor? I just added a second page to the Resource page. Can someone please go see if it opens correctly, and let me know if there's a problem or not?
shes not on maternity leave, business vacation
me 7/32 - to do with division of cells. Ends in shortened form of female sibling.
gramma - use lots of vowels and no cross letters in the me7
Well, Capone - tell her we miss her if you talk to her.
TY
will do
Well, whaddya know - there's a y comic book word too
pge 2 opened fine for me Angel!!
now I must go :(
bye shorty
Well, I have great news... my husband wants to move to Georgia! We are in northern Virginia now...
Yey Jera. When?
guess what all -- i have super-great news!!
What evan?
i just found out last night that im gonna be an auntie again!! :D
Terrific!!!! Congrats!
Congratulations, Eva!! that's great!! give my congrats to your sister/brother :)
Hopefully not until Summer... would like for the Sprite to complete an entire year here first... she's totally bummed, moving again so soon.
Your news is much better than mine, evana... congrats!
It can be tough on the kids. Was your "great news" sarcastic? I'm sorry if I didn't take it right.
I'm not thrilled myself, moving is tough... but the cost of living is much lower there than here, close to family (both sides)... so I'll warm up to it...
I understand. having just gone through a move I definitely don't envy the house hunting, packing etc etc part for you. It is good that cost of living will be lower and family closer though.
my BFs sister + her family live in georgia...fort...benning, is it? it was lovely weather when we were down there!
well, Hannah is out of bed - last day of Spring Break. I'll be back later to finish. HAve a great day all.
See you later, the other MM......
Done! Anyone need anything?
Geez no Goth, Gemini, or Hemi? Wassup wit dat?
just started how many words today
Taking a break with 20 left... got a splitting headache so I'm gonna lie down a bit... later, all!
There are 172 words - hope you feel better soon, Jera.
Well, I'm off. Have fun everyone.
thanks makes my 29 lok a bit sad
Bye amandacath.
"Megs" is in the Enable list, but isn't acceptable...... Ah, well........
good morning all
Hello bunny.
hello im new here
Hello Yun
Morning Bunny, Haz and all
Hey Yun-oh :) Hey Bunny! :) how goes it?
Long time no see Myavi, it's going, and going, busy all the time (except for Babble time that is!).
hi bunnyvicious and miyavi :)
LOL...nobody's ever busy in BABBLE time, Bunny...
man, this "real work" thing is really cutting into my babble time!
I've managed to finish just in time to down tools and collect daughter no 1 from the train. See you later.
LOL Eva... and Congrats, Haz! :)
I have the zo 4/9, what's the stat on the other?
oh, good grief...I'm crying so hard I can't see the screen clearly! XD VERY sad song :)
Bunny, zo 5/28 - something a comic book character might say :)
zo 5/28
Thanks, I thought about typing that one in, but thought "no way that's a word for real". Teach me!
lol Bunny, it's all good...now. have you got a tissue? *sobbing*
Hmmm, yeah, but it's used. I have cheap 1 ply toilet paper (I'm a tight wad). Chunking the roll your way. Dab, don't wipe. It's abrasive!
LMAO! *blows nose* thank youuuu *hands back sodden loo roll*
Hi All !!!!!!!!!!!!! Hows the grid?
Hey Snowy, it's fine at first, but then I came to a DEAD halt!
LOL bunny!! I think the littlies eat the toilet rolls here!
Hey Snowy! Grid's a nightmare, and there's snotty tissues in the log...welcome to babble :)
hmmm...drumsticks taste REALLY nice. and I'm not talking about the poultry variety...
Weel it's too late to back out now. I saw Babbles famous yw word & had to jump in!
*hands Snowy some snotty loo roll* okay, but here you go...you'll need it...
Miy In the last 6 years I have handled enough snotty tissues to wallpaper Buckingham Palace! They don't worry me in the least! Have been joining in tree plantings in an effortto replace the paper products that my family has used in 6 yrs!
me5/12 plz.....
Sorry movieman, not there yet, still overworking the monkey's on those darn em's!
LOL Snowy...how about a drum stick then? Only slightly sucked XD
Okay. "stewy". Why is that not a word?! "the stew was marvellously stewy." huh? huh punk?
sorry - first day. What does #/# mean. 5/28 was mentioned earlier.
morning everyone!!! how goes it
the first numer is the number of letters in a word, the second is the point for the word
Gelababe, it's a way of communicating the stats. zo 5/28 means a zo word with 5 letters and a point value of 28 :)
Hey Kiss :) How goes it?
4 letter - tile value 5 letter - 2 X tile value 6 letter - 3 X tile value .... and so on
AH! I just...you just...weird :/
so an 8 letter word worth 45 points would be 8/45 ok got that. What does the zo mean....don't laugh
^^ the zo means the word begins with Zo :)
(can I laugh now?)
I'm sure you already were...
Ok Gotcha! Thanks!
Laugh away.
lol, you're welcome! :) Bunny! *blinks innocently* moi? laugh at another? *flees from room in tears*
oh, well if I have your PERMISSION...*grins*
<--- chunking some more 1 ply Myavi's way....
Do I have the theme right? Magazines?
*PRRRRRRRRRRRP* erm, that was me blowing my nose, by the way. NOTHING ELSE :) *waves snotty loo roll* you wan' this back, Bunny? Huh? Huh punk?
Yup, Angela, that's right :)
Hey Angela, who's that on the front cover of yours? Looks like Billie-Joe Armstrong?
Sure, I'll add it too my giant used TP ball in the yard for tourists. "Welcome to Texas!"
Phew - dodged another faux pas!
LOL *shoves noxious green tissues back at Bunny*
Why yes, Miyavi, it sure is!!
Morning everyone!
*blinks* really? wow, so I still do know something about American music O.O
Hey, Jen! :)
Morning Jen!
Morning, all -- don't have much time today. Headed out to help my daughter get the final alteration on her wedding dress, and shop for the big day :) SO... Could I have a clue for the st 6/24 that follows cigar, and the mi 6/21 following the 'skirt' ?
I was hoping you'd be able to tell it was him on that small picture. I saw them twice last year - front row!!
really? Green Day? How did you manage to get front row seats TWICE?! *in awe*
Well, they weren't seats - spent 5 hours fighting to keep my place and was first through the gate. It was WELL worth it. Best shows I've seen in my 36 years!
the st 6/24 - the three st*****, Larry , Curly, Moe...Shimp?
Bunny! It's ShEmp..hehehe
(groan) Thanks, bunny -- feel like a fish slap for that one!
Ooopsie! that would ban me from the fan club!
I'm sure they would forgive you :)
hi.i'm new here and i can't find even a single word. either, i must be totally dumb and i'm not doin something right. HELP!!
welcome, shoelace -- keep at it and it will get easier. It helps to scroll the log for clues -- and there is a great resource at the link on the right -- click on 'babblers anonymous'.
Oh, and it helps to ask for clues... like this: Could I please have a clue for the mi 6/21, the one that follows the skirt? Now, hopefully someone will respond :D
Found the mi 6/21 - mi + loop + opp of brother (short)
See, shoelace? Aren't Babblers wonderful? (Thanks, bunny!) See you all later -- gotta dash.
dont' get it.
Or I should call us 'babblelonians' ...
yea..hehe.. u guys seem to be taking in ure own language... lots of short forms... but thanks.. i'm chekin out the resource
lol...they should forgive you, Bunny...at a Dir en Grey live, some of the fans started calling Kyo "Die", the name of one of the guitarists. He spent five minutes going "Kyo desu...Die. Kyo desu...Die." ahh, memories :) even though I wasn't there. :)
Gelababe, you might want to brief yourself on the rules first. Clues are given, like me 6/21. The word starts with me, there are six letters, it is worth 21 points.
Thanks bunny - learnt that a short while ago. It's the clues given after. Suppose it takes practice
okay, what' wit the nos on the letters?
I downloaded on of their songs, (don't remember wich ). Wasn't my cup of tea, but my husband saw it, now we have more than one!
another one
Bunny, whose song?
Shoelace, it's the value of the latter when points are given.
Dir en grey...
*cheesy grin* really? any idea what it was called? Lol...I'm sickeningly enthusiastic over here...:)
No, I'm lucky I can remember the kids names sometime... Also got that Shindemo Boogie Woogie by Miyavi, husband liked that too. Once again, not my cup of tea!
LOL Bunny! names aren't important :) hehehe...tell your husband he's a DUDE! XD
Hmmm, NO! Don't want his head blowing up anymore than it already has! Hehe.
hooray!! found the zo
*giggling* could be messy...
nice going, Gelababe! :)
st6/24 anyone plz.....
the st 6/24 - the three st*****, Larry , Curly, Moe...Shemp?
Movieman, er, er, if you've got 3...not so bright people, they could be known as the three st----s :)
...in my school, anyway...:)
me 7/32?
Moe, Curly and Larry one are 3.....
Good morning all -- I just got my coffee and sat down. How hard is the puzzle today?
Morning, Stidmama...pick up your coffee and stand up again; it's brutal today :)
Thanx bunny...... Really should have got that one, it rhymes with my surname.......
hehe...no chance of anything in there ever rhyming with MY surname :/
Oh, no chance of standing up again... I'm hooked. But after seeing how many words there are, maybe I should just bring the whole pot over!
LOL Stidmama! ^^ may need emergency supplies of choc as well...there's a Z in there, after all...
I just looked - there are TWO z words??? Lordy!
Don't worry, Angela, even I could get them :)
hI THERE BACK AGAIN 61 WORDS TO GO. Does anyone have a clue for the em 6/24 and the ey 8/55 please?
Ok, I'm calming down now...sigh...
ey 8/55 - compound word - you see with them + you chew food with on of them
em 6/24 - em + 2nd vowel + little blood sucking bug
An em6/24 makes you vomit. An ey8/55 is one of your upper incisors.
>.< Y'know, Angela, that was your cue to say "Oh, Miy, that doesn't mean a thing. You are the most incredibly intelligent person of your age I have ever seen! And you have excellent dress sense!"
HAAAAA!! I was THINKING it - doesn't that count??? *offers penance in the form of chocolate*
HUH! I will not be bribed by any chocolate! ... y'know, I'm going to take this chocolate ANYWAY, just to...just to...er...*snatches choccy and runs away*
Jac, you wouldn't happen to have the me 7/32 or the my?
Ve have vays of making you forgive!! hahaha!!
my6/27 is like mi6/21 but with the sometimes vowel in place of the personal pronoun.
found a great tool to help find valid words: www.morewords.com It beats monkeytyping to find what might work
Angela, I am ignorez-vousing you and eschewing you with a firm foot. *munching*
Good one, Spellacked, thanks :)
I am in awe of your Babblerifiousness Miyavi - such a flare for the game - such word prowess... *bows deeply*
I should have gotten that, thanks so much!
me7/32 - refer to yourself twice, then address a sibling.
hm...well...I might be PREPARING myself to forgive you... *launches self into Angela's arms* LET'S NEVER FIGHT AGAIN! *sobbing*
I second that emotion!!!!! YIPEEE!! Phew - I need a nap.
...soooo, bestest buddy...got any more chocolate? *looks nonchalant*
me7/32 is very like the 'mi' and the 'my'.
I wish!! I finished my Girl Scout Thin Mints yesterday :(
Taking another break at 150 found. Got to go out for a while. BBL.
Thanks Jac and Hydra!
awww...poor baaaaby...XD
DONE...anyone need a clue?
need help with em 6/24
em6/24...something that causes vomiting is em6/24
YES ME ME!! give me clues... anything
Shoelace, do you have the yw 4/10? :)
Ouwachita - the me5/12 would be useful.....
Ty, got it :)
Me 5/12 - me + blood sucking bug
me5/12...is a satellite of Jupiter...closest to the planet
Thanx all for the me5/12..... That was my final word, and now I've finished...... Anyone wanna congratulate me......?
I do I do! CONGRATS, MOVIEMAN!!! XD
WTG Movieman!
Two phone calls and two dogs and a sick-but-not-well-enough-for-s chool kid in my face -- and I've been here almost an hour and only 46 words. But at least there are still more than 13 hours left. (reaching for the chocolate) I don't think I'll get much housework done today! Any clue for the first em 6/21?
em is spelled just like the n, arch enemy
Well done, movieman!

Does anyone know of any kids websites for games for my 5 year old grandson?

LOl Miyavi -got to read this mag - it's about the only one I make time for now!
rajcd55, this is a great site http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/
There are games on the Nick jnr & CBBs sites too
bye sandr
lol Snowy...if I want to read my mag, I have to buy it issue by issue of the internet...and then translate it...:/
Well a least mine is in english! Although some of the admin jargon could be in a foreign language!
Thank you M3, I will check it out now. Thank you Bunny and Snowyowl. This is a big help!
Hi snowyowl all well? me 5/14 maybe?
LOL! I tried reading SHOXX when I was tired...only words I got with my eyes half closed were Miyavi, dream, love, now and hello :/
mi5/22 title of honor in Persia
HAH! Found it! Have a hint... mi 5/22 - first three letters of reflective glass that you preen in + first two letter of famous actor Billy **ne (or bug **pper)
me 5/14 - me + what you would say to a dog when you want it to attack someone
Hi Lucky - I'm afraid I haven't got very far with this grid yet. Haven't got the mi5/14 - sorry
Finished, so if anyone wants a lame clue or two before start in on this house, let me know!
congrats bunny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bunnyvicious yes please some clues me 5/12 mi 5/22 mo 7/36 thanks in advance !
Snowy, will you help me out? I've done some work on the Resource page today. Go see what you think, and let me have it if I didn't do it well. Please?

WOW Angelsong -it's fantastic! Lovely to keep the links to Babanon & we can keep the extra chat etc there .The whole of everything you need to Babble is in your page. 20/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
Good afternoon all, how goes the hunt?
bunny!!!!!!!! Hi i have missed you.. How are you? Hi to everyone!!
Snowy, did you notice Page 2? and the changes to the sidebar?
Angel - there's a typo - you have auggestions instead of suggestions on the first page
Any clues for the third ge6/27, the one between the two ge4/6's?
Hey everyone - I was a way for a little bit - nice to see you all.
hydra - add part of frozen water
Don't worry, just found it.
Angel - scrap that - I was looking at an old version.
Hi Angela
whew, Haz, I thought I was going blind trying to find the typo! :)
Sorry, Angel - I had kept the resource page open for the check box list, and had gone back through that instead of opening it fresh.
I really envy you Angelsong - it's all I can do to write a few letters & print! If i ever get any let up from these littlies I'm going to enrol in a class. It looks great & is easy to use, which is really important for computer idiots like me!
Am now going to clean the bedroom I should have cleaned the day before yesterday! BBL
Bye snowyowl.
Snowy, I haven't taken classes. I learned this on my own.
Bye snowy
Its very quiet!!!!!!! Is anyone there??
i'm here, just concentrating
I was just thinking the same thing Cait...
no ;)
Love your cover Hurshy
i don't really read any magazines, so it was hard for me to pick an icon today, but i thought this was a good one
Absolutely a fine pick. My cousins just got back in DEcember from serving 18 mos.
LOL Guigrrl :)
wow. i don't actually know anyone...well, that's not true, i know a couple people in the military but i haven't kept in touch with them so i don't know if they have gone or not.
Caitlyn, I'm not really here, just an extremely talkative illusion :)
hurshy I dont read mags either so I thought I would pick a really posh one!!!!!!!!
lol
I didn't really know anyone either until the first one got his orders, then his brother decided to go with him and re-enlisted. The family was a wreck needless to say. But very proud.
evening all
I just chose a magazine that would have Miyavi on the front cover - SHOXX :)
evening, Ruthy...sweet icon! :)
I don't really read Rolling Stone that much - I just loved the pic :)
yeah my family is full of wusses. well that and there are more girl cousins than boy cousins, and a lot of my cousins are still little kids
angela - it looks like a scary harry potter, who is it?
The brothers are 33 and 30. I'm very close to the youngest - like a little brother. I can't imagine - he said it got to 156 degrees there in Iraq one day...
that is hot
oi....miya....how are you feeling...will you be back monday?
Bite your tongue Hurshy!!!! It's Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day!!!
lol, sorry
yeah, yeah... ;)
scary potter LOL
Clue for wi6 please?
there are some kid-words in here today - owie(s), metoo!
Now that you mention it...it really does look like scary harry
Hey, Miss...yup, should be back on Monday :) If my legs will walk me to school...
ya poor baby...theres been lots of it round with other ppl....
hello! :) how many words today?
172
ouch! thanks hushy!
*whimpers* oh, Miss...it was a true brush with death...now, I want to live life to the full... ...which, er, of course, would explain why I'm on babble :/
hey everyone...btw..sorry...caught up in the grid..
lol, you clearly haven't done any 400+ grids or you wouldn't say ouch
:)
mi 6/21 please anyone???
miya..... youre an idiot...lol...
rollin, hi
*sticks out tongue* I'm not an idiot, I'm...intellectually/common sensically/mentally challenged. actually, I don't know what my problem is. I know it's hard to pronounce...
there are TEN words starting with 'y'...ooooooh dear
lucky - alt spelling of a certain kind of cell division
i know, rolin, it's hideous, i only have 5 of them
miya is back? hooray! hello miya!
I hear ya Rolin - I have 3 so far...sigh!!
and i can't even get that one pitiful N
*big cheesy grin* Hey, Leslie, thanks ^^
Miya rules the Babble universe!!
me either hurshy....
mwahahaha...BOW TO ME! ALL OF YOU, BOW!
BUT, i have all the C's, O's, and R's
hurshy.......no one likes a show off...*mumble grumble*
that wasn't showing off that was consoling myself
Evening, dear gang :) Let's try again...
I'm still making more brownie points from earlier Miya :) hehehe
gawd cantcha tell i have 5 more alarm clock mornings til holidays...lol
LOL Angela...XD *head is slowly inflating* ...I didn't say 'stop'!
Hello all...just here for a minute. Oh, Miya, you're so right - this is living life to the fullest. Babble; so full of gusto.
((mab))
so we're doing magazine covers today huh?
((sprite!)) Go see my handiwork on the online resource page(s)...
Wow. You are bad! I'm off to lunch - Thai food - but shall return later. C YA!
not necessarily covers, leslieann, just magazines. that is why mine is doubly appropriate.
oh Mab, you don't know how I live my OTHER life. ...I steal from small children... ...I mug old ladies... I RUN WITH SCISSORS
(((hurshy))) How is Spring break going for you - difficult?
it's been mostly ok, although the other day i talked to his brother on IM and he said he would go see if he wanted to chat with me... and he didn't. what a meanie.
Miya, I'm shocked! You could really hurt yourself with the scissors.
Hello everybody!
Mab...hah! I laugh in the face of danger, muahahaha!
...or old ladies, mab
oh, good grief, I've got to go...my best friend has just greeted me on msn by saying "don't be silly, wrap up your willy!" ...so I'm going to have my hands full for the next hour or so :/
At least my favorite Y-word is here to brighten my babble experience
Hurshy no I mean the mi 6/21 not the my 6/27 or the me 7/32 ... only mi 6/21 please
thanks sprite for reminding me - that's 6 y's for me! and got both A's!
i was talking about mi. just try it, lucky.
Hallo sprite how are you tonight? ... we need some spring!!!
And it helps to make me no longer invisible :) No wonder it is my favorite word.
Well, but old ladies and children - it's survival of the fittest, right? Darwin and all that... Hi smithie! That's an ouch, hurshy. Very adolescent I'm afraid. And he knows you won't reject him for his bad behavior, and that's a good thing....
all right, here's my ode to doctor's offices then (refresh)
i got one Z through sheer monkey luck, zo4, rhymes with actor hugh _____ from House. what's the other???
true, mab. only 3 days to go, though, and then he'll be back. i hope he has not been smoking much pot.
Hi Lucky! We had our Spring this very morning! Dutch Spring was on March 24 this year, from about 8 till 12 o'clock :)
did anyone get my magazine joke??
hurshy, the other zo is something batman might say as he slugs the joker (in a comic book).
ah, thank you angel - i do love grey boxes
I'm worried about you Sprite. The law here is that institutions must make accomodations for people with disabilites (we must have this as law or we'd eat each other). Are there others where you work that suffer this treatment?
i'm doing surprisingly well on the long ones, 5 of the 6 7's, and 1 8.
oh atalante, are you lurking?
You where right hurshy sorry and thank you... just too many cell divisions tonight!
yes, lucky :)
Mab, I think I should emigrate then :) Actually I think all will work out eventually, I just have the bad luck to have a company doctor who is A. overworked B. stressed out C. incompetent D. all of the above. But my boss told me today that he asked for an intermediator, so we'll wait and see...
woohoo..2 outa 3 8's...
i have re8, whatcha got, rolin?
If you could combine E8 and R8, you'd have an E11.
i have an ey8/55 its two parts of the head
I mean T8 of course.
cheers sprite..3 x 8...lalalal
Hello :)
Woulf :) Biiiiiiiig hug for you and yours.
I hope that resolves the problem. It must be so frustrating and stressful, which doesn't help one's wellbeing at all. It makes me mad all the way over here. Oh, and, funnily enough, I'd emigrate there if I could.
((**HUG**)) back at you, sprite ;)
yay!
We could switch homes, lol. (((((mab)))))) Thanks for caring!
Hello, GreyWoulf!
hi GW, and hi smith, i meant to say hi to you before but i forgot
has anyone got the fo 6/42?
(*smithchick*) -- I am on my lunch break and discovering how hard it is to Babble and eat egg foo young at the same time :D
Hi all. I got the entire dining room primed this morning. The next two hours are my babble reward.
ok, so i have me7 mo7 re7 ro7 to7 what am i missing? if the pattern holds it is a te7 ;)
Hey, hurshy... Me feelings WERE in danger of being crushed. I'm very sensitive lately.
hurshy do you happen to have the se6/18 mabe... purrrhaps ... by luck???
HI back to mab...:)-
ooh grey woulf..we're gonna have chinese take away for dinner..
Hey Hurshy - nice magazines. What caliber are they?
mm gets the joke!!! and well done on the priming, dear.
Fo6 is a comparative. Let's say it's a word for more mist, change the double consonant in the one with the highest value. But then only one, of course.
(*hurshy*)
rolin 6/42 for more of it
Thank you. The worst was when I headed to the shower only to find out that Sarah actually did what she was told. She was washing the towels and underwear in hot water - I had a cold shower. ICK!
musicmom, it appears as though we have similar reading material
Good clue, Sprite! TY...
thx sprite..dunno what the heck it is....but i got it..lol
Rolin - for fo6/42, think of more of the Muppet bear.
Very good taste LeslieAnn
anybody on my 7 question?
Se6/18 Someone who takes legal possession of land, as a freehold estate holder.
I'm missing that one too, hurshy.
Ne7 goddess of revenge
Oh goodness. The pastor's wife confessed.
AND the title of a star trek movie - how humiliating
LOL!
Thanks sprite!!!
finished
AND that gave me the brain wave to finish off the E's
alright, let's talk i's. i've got the upper left corner one, need the other 2.
Personally I am affronted by the Tm word. Since we babblers are all so very good in language, we never have are guilty of using it, right? So how the heck are we to know or see it? Took me ages to figure it out.
tm word?
there's a TM WORD??????
*leave out "have"
There's a tm word? Oh JOY!
funny, I saw the tm word right away. Guess that high school Latin paid off...
TM word and it is not TradeMark. :)
hurshy, there's an i4 meaning single element on a list
as in a potty mouth word?
oh, why did i take greek and not latin?
well at least we all had the same reaction!
FISH!
Actually, it's a Greek word used in Latin prose.
I wouldn't use it in front of others if wearing fake teeth :)
can someone give me a hint for the re 8 letter word?
LOL, sprite
re8 farthest away
my cat is soooo annoying.
Blue, if you are farther from finding it than ever, you are close.
you rock, got it. thanks
Okay found the tm word. I would never do that.
i cannot find it :(
None of us would, that's why it is so unfair ;)
i even looked in my greek dictionary
ends with a female relative hurshy
MM...check out my page.....see what's new.
hurshy, it rhymes with the vengefull goddess. Well, actually it doesn't, but now you will find it.
hurshy - I went to morewords.
I will angel.
so what does it mean?
putting a word in between a compound word. What place soever instead of whatsoever place.
something about cutting?
Separation of the parts of a compound word by one or more intervening words; for example, where I go ever instead of wherever I go. When I ever do that, pass me the fish.
You know I'm chatting too much with too few words. I'm going to end up putting something in the log.
Good morning/afternoon/evening, everyone :)
Hi nan! :)
(My favorite example is "a whole nother".)
hi c nan
wow-- that truly is an obscure word :o
good one vicuna.
has anyone found the az yet?
Vicuna, I love that one! :D
Hey, cybernan!
abso freakin lutely!
mm -- I have done that before :) or I will be IMing someone and start typing words to them cos I have the wrong window active :D
how many words are there today?
if you know what today's theme is, the az is no problem...
are we dealing with any TS's today?
I did. It's the email version of the glossies, but with a whole nother first letter.
hahahahaha maammaaaaa!!!!
lol. I did that for yesterday's "hoes". I was like... sorry... babble... But of course they had no idea what I was talking about.
Mamabear, it seems there are very few words that people can't stick some cusswords in the middle of!
hi everyone. I did start earlier, then went out to a meeting, and have been diving in and out ever since. I always work from the bottom up, so am at the m's now.
172 words today.
Thanks, angel
LOL Mama! And ((((((Mama))))) too. Missed seeing you :)
GW - I did it early yesterday - twice! UGH The Same word too. Double UGH!
hi gang
very true, Vicuna!!!!!! One of the joys of language.
Just broke 100 and have to go :( ((**Mama**)) ((**Hugs to everyone**)) Will try to be back later :)
atalante.... oh atalante...
Bye GW
Bye, GreyWoulf and Hi mamabear and ca$h!
Hi sprite!!! Good to see you too!!! I don't often get the pleasure. Just came in for a few secs to see what's going on ..... (supposed to be "at lunch")
84 words left to find :O
Hi ca$hmyre! Woulf, see you later and *hugs*
how many letters is the tm word, and can somebody give a hint?
hi ca$hmyre!!! ((((((GW))))))))) See ya later!
Hi hurshey, I'd rather meet you in this game, than the horrible 'S' game!
there is a tm word?!
:) exwren
The tm word was new to me. Always great to learn new stuff.
There is a relation between Se5/12 and Te6/18
six letters. Ends with female relative.
Hi also ....smithchick, hurshy, exwren, angelsong, musicmom, cybernan ... and anyone I missed!!!!
that's the tm word. sorry
LOl sprite
thanks, got it!
ExWren - what is the horrible "S" game?
sudoku!
tm+2nd vowel+female sibling
good one sprite. I always miss that se 5. At least I didn't have to ask for a clue today.
If you liked the 'tm' and 'fo' words, you're going to *love' the so5/20 & 6/33. :-)
OH..... silly me...... of course...... THAT horrible S game!!!!!!
Actually, the So-words sound like the answer, if the Az is the question.
hooray for jac, another grey box for me!
lordy, i have no so words yet...
hurshey and I sometimes meet in the soduko game, only difference is she can do it and I can't
Can anyone explain to me why, when there are Tm and Az and So in this grid, my last unfindable word is again an O?
but, exwren, i have never done anything he4ic, and you probably did when you were a wren
Sprite that is the babble way.
i have all the O's sprite!
Sprite - Sod's Law, I guess.
have you got oo4?
True, musicmom! Hand me the fish, it was a very common and obvious one too. Done. Any clues needed before I split?
Which 'o' to you need, Sprite?
I just needed a whole nother one :D
Any so clues? Thanks.
A whole nother fish?
oo4/4 - Scottish for 'outs'. Think of the song, 'The bo*** were made for Walking'.
YAY, Sprite!!!!!!!!!!
only one more S!!
*These
I'm not far enough in to need clues yet - though I have been taking the ones alreayd posted.
The So-words rhyme with the Az. For the 5 lose last letter. Also rhymes more or less with female nephew.
right....take away chinese is on its way...
I've got 2 te's and 3 mo's left to find before I go and make dinner.
chinese subtraction?
'female nephew'. LOL.
Go go go go hurshy!
hmm...dunno 'bout that hurshy...i reckon it might add a bit to me..lol
well sprite, i have a whole bunch of other words besides the S, so don't get too excited.
Sprite, Thanks.
Sprite, you had me looking everywhere for something like "niece"! lol
i don't have more than 4 to find in any given box.
Lol Vicuna :) Sorry.... A whole nother kind of relationship actually. (See how quick I am in the uptake?)
st 6/30 and st 6/24 please I'm steaming up!
vicuna....so did i....and now im TOTally confused..lol
(Yeah, I did figure it out, but I was pretty confused for a minute there. And, heck, when you've seen one relation, you've seen them all!)
st 6/24 nyuk nyuk nyuk
yeah, i finally got the az
perfect hurshy..thx..lol
rolin, the relation in question is the child of your aunt or uncle!
Lucky: cigarettes... "King of the road...." *sings: "...short, but not too big around... I'm a... maaaan... of means by no means..."
st 6/30 alt spelling of st5 cigar
hurshy i like the cigar one that sounds similar :)
st 6/24 only please
done with my S's!
spectacular!
lucky, think of larry, mo and curly
fo 4/7 fo 5/20 fo 6/42 what is the other F?
You all have a great day/night/whatever and happy hunting :) Till to bright and shiny morrow!
ro 7/28, anyone?
good night sprite.
another Fo4/7
Sprite: a woman who really knows her tm6/21!
bookgrrl, it's the most red one
I'm done!
ty sprite
Ro7 for the cheeks that are the reddest.
clue on fo 6/42?
thanks, ca$hmere and sprite!
congrats jac - 22 more and i will join you. if only i knew how many atalante got w/o the list...
let's say... she got down to 23.
fo 6 sounds like the bear on the muppets
lol, hurshy... I just got here and saw your clue at 12:44... good one :) oh, and Hi!
Hi all, ((esp. hurshy - most excellent clue giver)). I'm just about to dive into the grid. How is it today?
i got to 95 w/o the list, but now i gotta use it! only a babble braniac could get the whole list w/o The List!
hey mac, you finish the sudoku?
Hi mac!
Congrats jacula *applauses* since you're done can you help on the st 6/24?
hi peester *blush*
Yes, I did. Really easy one today... didn't have to backtrack at all
Got to cut and run now. *Rushes out of Babbleonia tying apron up as she goes.*
Hi musicmom! :)
*yelling as jac runs away* bye jac!
st6/24 - Think of Mo, Curly & Larry, The 3 St*****.
Congrats Jac.
born in Babblonia, moved to Arizona...
ok, please, that silly i from second row.
*Rushes back out again with a potato peeler in her hand.*
jac i'm not sure lucky has heard of them, what else can we give for a clue...?
Hi Musicmom! Highlights mag makes me think of childhood doctor visits (shivvvvvers...)
lucky the st6 in question sort of rhymes with french for red
i still can't get correct spelling for fo 6/42. muppets bear
"more of" the muppets bear, cash
ca$h, it's not actually the bear, just sort of like it
wi 6/30, please?
This game keeps tempting me away from work
Hi Folks ! Great clues flying around... and I need them today!
*Rushes back in, ey4/6's watering from onion chopping.* If you Google 'Mo, Curly & Larry' you will get the answer.
aha, monkeyed that pesky i!
*whispering* sukeeee... sukeeee... come play babble... more fun than work....
wi 6/30 more claret-y
cnan - more fretful (annoying children are wi5)
hurshy - your clue was better than mine.
not better, only truer
18 to go...
Thanks Music mom -- thought that was spelled with a wh
it is, cnan
it is - don't listen to me:-)
finally got it, duh! thx for the muppet bear clues :)
Every day I think to myself, "I'm tire of doing this -- won't bother tomorrow". Somehow I get sucked in every night at 10:00 pm!
cybernan, every night at 10pm i cannot help but go in and see the new puzzle...then i end up working on it for an hour
you dudes are lucky, being on the east coast the flip is at 1 am for me.
for me too Hurshy.
me 7/32 clues?
cell division, ca$h
No way, Hurshy -- in those circumstances you wouldn't see me until the next day!
well that is why usually, you don't! but during spring break i have stayed up for a bunch of flips.
Lucky and Sprite, are you in the Netherlands?
te6? last one for me... pleeeez!
thx hurshy
er, the first te6 - 6/27?
cash, me and 2 vowels plus short version of female sibling
te 6/27 - add the feds
TE plus a consonant and a group of guys
ah. got it. thanks gramma and hurshy!
100 words. 75 to go. it's gonna be a long day!
no, thank you walnut, for alerting me to its existence so i could find it and give you a clue!
gotta go take kids to dance class. later, dudes!
I think I inhaled too many paint fumes. I can't see anything today.
mm, I love that smell
So does my 5 year old Gramma. I don't mind it really.
Was today's puzzle easier than usual to finish, or am I just getting better at this?
172 words, right?
once we were painting our homecoming float in my friend's basement, and the phone rang. now in my family we would often say, as a joke, "get that, it might be the phone." so i said it, and my friends thought i was losing it from the paint fumes!
Probably both 8)
You're probably getting better spell. I find that when I play consistently I see things better.
LOL, hurshy
hehehh hurshy.
ugh, 3 more g's, where can they be? i found a japanese one...
aha, finished the W's, anyway!
hurshy, what Leo wants...Leo ge**
The g's have me stumped too. I'm skipping them and going back later.
yeah, i have that one
i have 2 ge4s and ge6
How about Beau Ge**?
that's what I have hurshy. There is a 5 to start them but I cannot figure out what it is.
i think so, i don't know that guy but i think that is prob what i have
For the first few ge's - add em5/12, and then play around with adding/subtracting letters from the end...
one of the ge's is g plus a hammy actor
What's the theme? Magazines from our youth?
bugzy, my new he4!!! 13 words to go!
just magazines.
Y/W Hurshy... 8 here...
Bugzy - I love you!
harpjane, I think it's just magazines. We're all imature
i need 2 h, 3 t, 4 m, and 4 y, what do you need bugzy?
*mwah* to Music Mom. IF you get the ge6/27 between the 2 4/6's let me know...
YEYEEYYYY My g is grey!
bugzy make first ge4 into adjective
add a vowel and consonant to the first 4/6 sounds kind of like something intestinal but not spelled that way
2 e's, ge6, m7, re5, 2 sw's, to6/21
<g> or do what hurshy says.
bugzy, it's ge4/6 plus a lime disease carrying bug
m7 cell division, you already have it as an mi6 and my6
re 5 encountered again
TY - was trying to add an s on the end....
sw's - in a pool, pig, cursed, took an oath
to 6/21 if it's not one, maybe it's to6/21
mi 6/21?
there are 3 ey 4/6's
I hate re's... And hand me a fish for the sw's, it was the first 2 Thanks...
mi 6/21 cell division
cybernan, it's like your me7 w/out the E
em 4/5
(just trying to guess what bugzy needs on the E's)
thank you
Hurshy - you are now my h4!!! *bows down to hurshy*
Hurshy - I think it is some kind of ruler.
One more... mo7/36 cant be plural of female relative...
Bugsy -- more of the closet insects
more so your female relative
mi 5/22?
I am totally a leech. I'm taking all these clues:-=))
how many words total today
lol, me too, musicmom :)
mi is a title of honor in Persia
172 words
mi 5/22 - given earlier - first part of looking glass, second part, Billy **ne, Titanic actor.
Ahhh... Got it as soon as I asked! DONE! Thank you all! (Especially Hurshy - what do you need now?)
Great clue, Haz, thanks! :)
Yep thanks Haz
ok i don't have the list so don't know exactly what i need but i need 2 h's, 3 t's, 4 m's and 4 y's - i have all the 7's and 8's so it's not those
Glad to help.
two of the t's i need are from the bottom left one
i had that weird mi from the earlier clue... :)
For the y's - add on a 3-letter word, in IOU. Then add a vowel or two, and plurals...
thanks bugzy!!!
te 4/8
i think we can read each others' minds!
Yes, thanks bugzy! :)
Wish I was au courrant with the new young actors -- still can't get it.
i have te 4/8
For the he's, do you have the he4 that's like a Chrysler engine with a different vowel on the end, and the plural? And he5, the engine, plus a consonant?
te6/27
cybernan - the mi5 - Russian space center + last letter and first letter
i had those first 2 h's, bugz, but not the last, thanks, just need one more of those now
Thanks, Bugsy
i have te 6/27 also
te6/27 - take off the last letter of te4/6, then add more than one guy
I'm sure this one as been asked for many times, but here it is again... tm?
are there any ts's?
do you have h+sea bird? or the drug?
tm - has the same ending as the ne7
the drug!! i was missing the drug
of the 3 t's and 4 m's i have left, 2 are 4's 3 are 5's and 2 are 6's
Ok - for the m's do you have the one that's like a cheap lodging place, different last consonant? and its plural?
Thanks, Haz -- strange word!
no, i didn't! yay! 5 to go!
no ts's. One tw. - tw5
yeah, i have the tw, i need 2 from bottom left and one from 3rd row left
Also a sometimes vowel on the end of that m, for an m5
*sneaks in quietly to find her last 17 before chatting & forgetting to look for words*
hooray for bugzy, that just leaves one M
You're right, cybernan, it is a strange word. But then, what's new?
I'm done thanks to Angel's lists
are there any my's other than the cell division?
Spelllit - congratulations!
There are 5xME, 7xMi, 12xMo, 1 MY
Just the one my
in that list of m clues - were any of them for the me5/14? You can tell me the time and I will go back for it. Thanks
then i am missing an mo
*Waves hi to Jera* Yay for Spelit!
You must be nearly done Haz
WTG Spellit
mo4/7 - like to4/6
I finished ages ago, I'm just lurking to see if anyone needs help.
Nope - me5/14 - add what you tell a dog to do to someone you don't like
What a kind lady!
bugzy, seriously, we are so in sync. thank you!!! now just those 3 t's left
Thanks again bugsy!
me 5/14 - resembles your babble name, musicmom!
to 5/12 (the first) and to 4/5 please anyone????
one 4 one 5 one 6
Lucky: books.
A lot of those t's from the bottom have to do with to4/4 (horn sound) and a lot with to5 (mouth part)
Thanks haz!
to5 another name for books
to 5/12 - the plural of to 4/5 - large book
there's a to4 that is a homonym for where you find mummies..
i have 2 horn words and 2 mouth part words, should there be more?
ok now i just need the one from the 3rd row left!!! bugzy you are so great!!!
3 horn words: singular, plural, one who does it. plus another one that uses the root word - is part of a candy name
ok i have all those
it's a t5
GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Alaskan one? Could also be a th...
WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO done with no list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! thank you so much bugzy, you're the best.

LOL Hurshy!! Hi jetx

bugzy, you are the best at guessing which words are too weird for me to find. it's uncanny.
Terrific Ruthy!
Congrats, ruthy!
The C in the corner keeps mocking me.
Yay for Ruthy!
That's because those were the ones that threw me, too, Hurshy!!
ci's - note another work in your paper, and pl and a benign lump, spelled wrong
*whistles cheerfully* what a great day
Hello! I'm relatively new, and I'm having trouble with the i words. And by trouble, I mean I don't have the first clue. Help?
can anyone tell me what the az5/20 is?
em 6/21 and 6/24?
i sing bugzy a song: "you make me so very happy..."
I still think owie should be a word.
The Trista - are you really THE Trista - the bachelorette????
ylleria - the icons today have a particular theme. The az word is contained in that theme.
me too mm
em6: express.
Whoo-hoo!! *happy dance of doneness*
ylleria - a+the end of the icon theme for today
...and by that I clearly meant em5.
Go jera Go jera!
ITA, musicmom, especially if the zo5 is allowed...
theengine - think you need a certain kind of basin that you would find in a hospital? and a related word.
Hurshy, no, I'm not. I'm far less cool. ;)
evening all well done ruthy
erm... icon theme? *looks embarassed*
az = last bit of our theme for icons today!
Hi Trista - there's an in4/4, it4/5, and iw4/8... only the it is a common word...
i words: in4 - scramble the thing you press your clothes with it 4 - only one per customer iw4 - like a tropical fruit without the k, plural
Yay for Jera!
oh, so you have never worn million-dollar diamond shoes? :(
Oh you clever clue-givers are just too much... I should just go take a nap...
Lots of the pro members use icons beside their name. For fun, lots try to do the same theme on the same day. Today's is another word for periodicals.
how u doing sha?
just finishing ruthy
Thanks, Haz!
congrats jera!!!!!
Thank you, Hurshy and Bugzy!
wtg sha
thats me all finished
Also, Hurshy, no to the diamond shoes. :(
Yay sha! (That rhymes!)

all the strange forms of familiar words..
wi 5/18 and wi 4/8 (the last one) please can anyone be so kind my eyes are drooping and I want to finish since I came so far!
lucky, like the middle color of your flag...but drop the h
It's just like the colourless colour with the h removed
Ok, I'm missing a ci4/5, but I have the one that the root of the ci5/12 - anyone help?
And the last wi4/8 - some people are said to be at their wi** end if they are under stress
TY Haz and Hurshy got them!
The ci you're looking for is an alternative spelling for a benign lump.
Good, Lucky - and now relax those eyes!
Thanks again, Haz
You're welcome, ylleria.
*waves to TheTrista*
XtinaS! Hi!
I was a bit surprised that geist wasn't in the list.
maybe it has to go with zeit.
Dearest TheTrista: Should we feel oppressed that "goth" is not on the list?
XtinaS: Yes! Wildly oppressed!
power to the goth people
Just 5 te words left .... I'm moving along
Tee-hee... found the perfect icon for tomorrow...
jera what's tomorrows theme?
I'm missing 2 em/6/21's, any clues? I have the one that comes from the em5/12 already
Black & White ball... I found the most awesome penguin in a bow tie!!
There are two em6/s that come from the em5.
The other em 6/21 is the ending of the ne7
For the 6/21 at the end of ne7... holy crap, that *is* a word! I love this game. I learn so many new words.
thanks haz.
I've got the one with same ending as the ne7 now, but still missing one of the ones that comes from the em5
doh! never mnind, I see it now
If you treat the em 5 as a verb, then you have the one doing the action for one em6 and the present tense verb form for the other.
Hey y'all! Can I get a little help with ET 4/5?
et 4/5 - e plus a nervous twitch
et4/5 - oh, you have GOT to be... "goth" wasn't in there, but a *suffix* is??
haz you are my sweet little guardian angel!
gothic would be acceptable but goth is an unacceptable abbreviation. Ours is not to reason why....
et/4 is also "Of or relating to features or items analyzed without considering their role as a structural unit in a system, as in behavioral science or linguistics."
XtinaS -- Right?! I'm going to Hot Topic tonight to cheer myself up. ;)
Marquee - I'm certainly little!
nor is gemini and hemi. why not?
ne 7/32 anyone?
I don't think there's any way I'm going to get the ey 8/55 without help...
"goth" is... oh. Well, okay, Goth when a noun and not a shortened one is a proper noun, referring to the Germanic invaders of the Roman Empire. Bah.
ne 7/32 God of war
te 6/27 is my runner upper ... have mercy and clue me please
revenge sorry
ne 7/32 - a word that describes retribution - Greek goddess of revenge
TheTrista: For tomorrow's game, I am SO wearing black lipstick when I play!! *grins*
ylleria - the ey 8 is made up of two words. One you see with, the other you grin or eat with.
One word left - is there an em6/24?
musicmom shall we swop?
Musicmom - yes! The opposite of Pepto Bismol.
XtinaS: And I'll be wearing my black mesh shirt. I may have trouble typing, though, with the back of my hand pressed to my forehead.
There certainly is, musicmom, and if you take one of these, it should have a laxative effect....
ey 8?
ta, Haz!
Sorry - wrong end! It would make you sick...
TheTrista: Whereas I will be invading Rome! While listening to Depeche Mode. Yes.
fo 4, anyone?
I'd give my ey8 to find that word! (Or is my mother the only person who uses that phrase?)
golfers yell this
fo4 = ___ and aft
Vicuna - we use that phrase all the time.
I can't get EM 6/24! Laxative? Enema is not in this puzzle!
az 5/20 help?
How did I not see that? I've been staring at this grid too long, I think.
Gah. Yw4?
thanks for all the clues everyone!
Marquee, more like syrup of ipecac
ty vicuna -- pass the fish!
az5 = something you read, less the "mag"
Good grief I finished again ... its beginning to be a habit!
Echo5ive: alternate spelling of the iw4/8
kisses ang hugs----thanks!
Go lucky Go!
I mean good job Lucky.
I haven't found any fish in this grid yet, cybernan, so you'll have to slap yourself with something else! ;)
*shakes fist at all archaic words*
Thanks musicmom did you finish also? or can I help out?
MarqueeMarc- sorry for leading you up the garden path with the em6/24 - it's not a laxative, it's for making you vomit. em plus vowel plus that nervous twitch again.
I'm done!!!! I kept trying to put 7 letters in a 6 letter word!
musicmom loves crowds eh???LOL
yeah and Marquee- there is not curvy consonant in it. That's what kept tripping me up.
Yep!
he 5/14?
Thanks y'all! Got it!
Musicmom relax ... while I start on my taxes DUH!
yay, musicmom *~*~*~!
cnan - one is the plural of the 4/6 the other is he+consonant+not out but**
he5/14 - one is a pl of he4, the other is a reddish-brown chrystalline chloride, which ends with opp. of out
Ty musicmom
I'm trying to decide whether or not I have time to put the first coat on the dining room.We are going to friends for dinner and I don't know if I want to shower again. I think I'll wait until morning for more painting.

me+ill -last letter.
Thanks, musicmom!
me5/14 - living in a moist environment, spelled like harmony but with different first vowel
Good luck - lucky!
Well, my daughter is nagging me about having some computer time, so I'm gonna scoot... later, all!
Bye Jera - I'm going to have to let Sarah check her e-pal soon too.
Anyone else need help?
Thank you musicmom and vicuana -- sorry for the delay -- was called away.
anyone need a clue *dancing a happy jig at the finish*?
No problem. I'm constantly appearing and disappearing.
Congratulations, cybernan!
Congrats C-nan. I'm headed out for a while. See you all later tonight or tomorrow.
thank you Haz and Musicmom -- for the congrats and the help!
okay, em 6/21 that comes before 6/24...I've got the 4/5 before it, so the range of options is obviously limited. Any clues?
See you at the flip if you're around -- bye for now :)
em6 -- same first 3 letters as the 4 + a sibling
AH! Thank you.

lol, good enough definition for me ;)
lol, when you click on the ? it does not give you a definition, strange.
to6/21?
to6/21 think of your parent but change the first letter
harp, not this one but to6
a hint for ey/8/55 ?

Glad to be of help, Temple :)
sorry mac, I'm being dense, do you mean more of the mo4/6 that is an insect? I dont get it.
Yes, the insect
compare two of the insects, one is more so
my closet is mo7/36 than yours ;)
another hint on the me7. Not getting it!
beakman... use the 'e' on top of the 'm' ... go that direction, see if that helps
Doh!
Boysaway...are you near Tauton (spelling?)
Yeah, I think he meant duh to me, hmm....
Did you get the me7 beakman?
Hello All, can I get a clue for the mi 6/21, please?
beakman, I meant it fo me...Rob, Im about 30 miles from Taunton, nearer to Bath.
mi6/21 mi + round vowel + female sibling
evening all :D
Hi sherb :)
Boysaway....have you heard of Nettlecombe Court near Taunton?
Rob, no I haven't...do you have friends there?
Hey Sherb. thanx, macuser! that 'm' word spelled 3 ways..interesting...
beakman in case you didn't get it, try this... start with the 'm'... use the 'e' above it... then follow straight across for the 2 vowels then add female sibling
okay, I give up! What's the z word that isn't footwear?
I'm stuck on: zo5 yo6 ye5 Anyone?
yw, chic :)
hi mac and chic :D :D

z+ something you say when you stub your toe
zo5 Think of a word that was used in Batman comic books... or singer David Bo***
yo6 is the plural of yo5-an expression that rhymes with OWee
Finished.
Thanks mac!
yw, Eva :)
Wow, Rob, thats an impressive looking ancestral seat - obviously an educational establishment now.
oh, ok! Well then duh to me!
No need for 'duh' beakman... it's a weird word... and we all have those head-smack moments :)
Boysaway.....The history is fun to read.... a lot of political stuff depending on who was in power at the time...there's a peerage line that I don't think impacts me at all...but you're still welcome to call me Lord RobRob!
lol
Eva... love your icon, btw :)
Gotta go, folks... good luck and happy babbling :)

Renny, e mail alert.......:)
aren you there leen?
I'm only going through a faz
The race is not to the swit, nor the battle to the strong
douglas, i think that fazr should count too. they use them on star trek.
The race may, however, be to the swiFt! ;)
vicuna, picky picky
Unless a swit is involved, and then you never know...
Could be Loretta Swit
hiney is so a word!
my money's on Loretta any day...
i'll swit you if you don;t behave!!!
I don't have a horse in this race, but I do have a new baby foal.
short and swit?
Hiney may not be a word, but it is an icon :)
If you're talking tush, it's spelled hein-something or other, and it has appeared in grids before and been legal.
angel - very kool updates....you are a genius!!!!
How many words in this puzzle?
Never mind...scrolled down, 172
Douglas....172
douglas: 172
bbl...
Well, I've just passed 10% at 18 words. Woo-hoo!
me 7/32?
me7/32 - I believe it's yet another spelling of mi6/21 and my6/27
Do you get the same definitions when you click on the ?s?
vicuna, they're not the same. click on the links.
Ricky Ricardo would say, "I'm going to let her st 4/8 in her own goose!"
geist isn't a word? As in zeitgeist?
Yay, I passed 100
Hmm, interesting. Thanks! I thought they were all me7, but that's the one that isn't the others! (And check out that def 2 for me7. That's out of the blue!)
But in any case, my inaccurate clue still out to get you to the word!
I wasn't quite sure that oy 4/6 was a word, but it is
(I mean *ought*)
Take a load off yer to 5/10
douglas: geist is a word in german, but not in english.
goth is so a word!
This dictionary allows lots of foreign borrowings into English, but tends to be a little unaccepting of German.
Goth is a proper name :)
But in our living language, goth has entered common usage. Wikipedia sez... Goth is a modern subculture that first became popular during the early 1980s within the gothic rock scene, a sub-genre of post punk. It is associated with gothic tastes in music and clothing. Styles of dress range from gothic horror, punk, Victorian, fetish, cybergoth, androgyny, and/or lots of black. Since the mid-1990s, styles of music that can be heard in goth venues range from gothic rock, industrial, punk, metal, techno, 1980s dance music, and several others
yeah, i agree, "goth" should be in the dictionary.
Hello everyone!
oh how the mighty fall. douglas, you're in the anger faz of babble. first was denial. after this faz, you will find acceptance. welcome to babble
Hey, I agree :) I wouldn't accept mosh either
Hello Angela!
I didn't expect geist to be a word, but I do expect hiney and goth to be words.
I meant it wouldn't accept mosh
Douglas, Douglas, Douglas, let go right now of any illusion that the Babble dictionary makes sense, is consistent, is comprehensive, or is the best dictionary around. It isn't any of those things! But it's Babble, so we play...
How can you expect to take the mo 4/5 out of your brother's eye, when you have a beam in your own?
my eyes hurt just from thinking about it.
I'm waiting for a puzzle where tsetse is in the puzzle, but I haven't seen one yet...
Yep, it was there, a while back!
Hi Angela!!!
All I need is an s for geyser...
I am new at this and I need help with sw 4/9.
sw 4/9: think of water.
Hey Smaller and Mon - what's shakin'?
(Sorry, I think I'm turning completely patronizing here. Maybe I'll shut up and go back to wrestling with my last few words...)
Like my baby horse? Born on St. Paddy's....named Shamrock :)
If Elmer Fudd were here, he'd say siwo was a word...
Thanks, izzy. I got it.
how is it that "owie" isn't a word?
but owie is a suffix of a word...
Douglas - as would "siwy"
shouldn't that be spelled "siwwy"?
Having 44 words, I'm now a quarter of the way through the puzzle...woo-hoo!
if you want to get pahticuwar...
all I need is a g for foreign
anyone have any clues for me7?
to 5/10 and taboo
epsurreal - cell division
thank you so much dl!!
yw
The me7 is the process of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in reproductive cells from diploid to haploid, leading to the production of gametes in animals and spores in plants.
No time to wallow in the mi 4/5
A New Kind of Science by Stephen Wolfram is a weighy to 4/5 indeed
I'm sure they've been given already, but anyone care to give Z clues again?
Had to leave abrubtly! Smaller...did I miss schro???
the term "me7" seems a bit of bragadocio!!!!!
zo 5/28 is an archaic exclamation...Well, it all depends on the meaning of the word "archaic," doesn't it?
Zo/5 isn't really what I'd call a suitable word for these purposes.
angela 4/9 - flat sandal
mo 4/5 is debatable
Douglas - I could have sworn I tried that this morning...Thanks! I guess if Scooby Doo is old :)
mo 6/24 is one member of Frank Zappa's band
em 6/24 makes me wanna puke
I want rhizome to be a word...

Jesus turned water into wi 4/8 at the marriage feast in Cana...
em 6/24?
That em 6/24 has appeared in the Sunday crossword the last couple of weeks
The clue was "Ipecac, and others"
Have wi...need iw 4/8
got it! thanks!
I don't know any words starting with iw...looks like I'm going to learn something today.
Elmer Fudd's iwis?
For iw, add singular form of verb "are."
How about ne 7/32?
ne7/32: an enemy.
ne = antagonists
TY Jee :)
The definition gives another word, the yw 4/10
100 words, not bad for my first time
As in, "Up until this year, Tom Brady was Payton Manning's ne 7/32"
YW sukee
Got it...thanks all
All I need is for a neurosis is u...wait, that didn't come out right...
sounds like a greeting card Doug
I want protozoa to be a word
em 6/21?
And the Encylopaedia Brittanica is a collection of weighty to 5/12
An actor em****
When em 6/21 appears in crossword puzzles, the clue is usually something like "overacts, hams it up, etc."
Clue for ge 5/16?

true true..sorry
th 5/12 please
Norma to 7/28 is the name of a movie with Dustin Hoffman
angela-well, how come dictionary.com doesnt have that? tho it does have cee as the letter c
OK...I know they use the dictionary, but c'mon....zo 5/28 is a word and "hemi" isn't!!! That just ain't right!
th5 rhymes with mi 4/5
thanx Angelwings Great clue
Gemini isn't a word under the rules, but it is in there.
ooh, good find though, douglas
thanks chic got that one the second one ? th5/12 please
th 5/12 is possessive form of th 4/7

number of letter/point value

douglas, you funny guy!
Can anyone help me with st 6/30?
i need the second mo 5/12 anyone?
I don't have the st 6/30
I have both mo 5/12s Which one do you have?
mo 5/12: short musical piece usually sung in church
inge st 6 is something you smoke
st6/30 think cigar
st 5/18 is an alternate spelling for the st6/30
hi. first-timer here... where can I find out what you all mean by "ge6/27" and "st 6/30" etc? I know the letter combos are in the puzzle, but what do the numbers mean? I am up to finding 59 words (a ways to go..) and I want to understand the clues better... thx!
st+ something that happens in golf (b****)
Oh, that means there are three mo 5/12s
i think i need the third mo 5/12, - not the thing in th eye - not the pl of a point
Thanks, now I got both cigars, and I am done.
Roger Williams sang about st 6/30's in the song "King of the Road"
luvvbyrd, in the pro version, they have the number of words starting at each letter, and the first two letters of each word. The first number is the number of letters in the word, and the second number is the point value of that word.
re 5/12 anyone?
luvv, the notation means: st 6/30 is a word with 6 letters, starting with st, that's 30 points. there is a list with that breakdown if you go to the babblers anonymous link at right, then click general, then click stats
also, great job for your first time!
douglas the stats are available to all at Babblers Anon, the link to the right of the page or at Angelsongs link
inge i did not get that mo5/12 clue ....
cliff, to be introduced to someone again
tm 6/21?
luvvbyrd you get the stats from 2 places under Friends of Babble: either Babblers anonymous or Angelsongs link Rukes are on the top line
tm+part of something my husband is writing for his masters degree
tm 6 is Separation of the parts of a compound word by one or more intervening words; for example, where I go ever instead of wherever I go. Lord knows I never use that word
Mo 5/12 and 6/21: mo + te 4/4
veg you are a great clue-giver!
i think i need the third mo 5/12, - not the thing in th eye - not the pl of a point
LeslieAnn and Douglas.. thx for the speedy help.. the babblers anon list is a gr8 resource... :-)
Thank you Leslie Ann - only 9 left to go!
no kidding! you'll get words much faster now... :)
I have 81 words, I will declare victory and withdraw when I get 86
hint for in 4/4?
in + first two letters of *** your boat
thanks leslie
inge thanks for those two mo 's !
Jeffer, I am giving you the third one in my clue..it means a choral composition based on a sacral text.
I've never heard of that word...it's a small, usually ornamented box that is hung from the waist sash of a Japanese kimono and has compartments for holding small objects such as cosmetics, perfumes, or medicines.
oops!
inge thanks for the help you done?
that in shows up in *lots* of puzzles, though
another toughie for me mi 5/22
a clue or a hint, please?
What exactly is the az, exactly?
I don't have the mi 5/22 either
az last part sounds like something you would read weekly, say
It can't be azimuth, that's too long. I want azimuth to be in this puzzle, but it isn't...
mi 5/22 - mi + the sun god, stick the last letter of the alphabet in the middle
Mi 5/22: first three letters of object used for reflection, plus half name of one of the Gabor sisters
What does that mean? I've never heard of it before
leslieann that sounds like a japanese car, but i got it TY
oh, that clue's better, inge
grylurk, click on the question mark beside the word to find out what it means
douglas " world Maga**** "
if you click on the little quetion marks next to the letter it will give you a definition
Well, I learned something...
I am not experienced in giving clues. usually I am getting them. I am learning though.
or *question* mark. whatever.
inge you did great by me ...
Oh, so it'll take Persian words, but not the 20+ german words I've tried to use so far :-P
I've never seen the word az 5 before
Who knew that you had to know organic chemistry to do Babble?
Join me in the anger phase, greylurk
you need to know lots of things! or at least a good clue-giver
except that when you try to enter a persian word it won't take it cos it's looking for a german one ....
Well, the ice skating championships are coming to the best, so will call it a night. See you all tomorrow no doubt. Good night.
Ahh! Can someone please give me a clue for the ey 8?
good night inge! thanks for the help!
LadyF a compound word see and chew
ey + second vowel + you have lots of them in your mouth
whats with Oo 1 - ,Oo4x1? it's not even a word...confused...there is no "goth" nor yesterday "mosh" when they are widely used...I know you will say that those are so called slang words...but come on...oof, got it off my chest...thanks
ey 8/55 - what you see with and what you could not bite without
earlier clue ey 8/55 you see with them+ the dentist fixes them
As I now have 86 words, and learned a few new ones, I'm going to declare victory and withdraw. The things one learns from Viet Nam...Cheers all, and drop by Crossword Bebop and say hello sometime! I've asked Dr_God to make Crossword Bebop an FOB (Friend of Babble), but he seems to have more important things to get around to.
douglas need any clues?
cib, it doesn't take aint, either, although it takes cant
Okay, that should help, thanks everyone! :)
bye douglas! have a good night.

so 5 - so + the area you live in has a *** code (change the last cons) for the 6 add a vowel

Haven't been able to follow the log too closely -- Seb has been fussing up mightily this evening :\
No problem, GW......

LOL GW.... power of suggestion - there's a Z in the grid so the baby's name is now ZEB!!!! hahahahahahaha

I will let you know when I get stuck, LA -- this is my first opportunity to look at the 2nd letter list today :)
You shouldn't have any trouble, GW.... I finished the whole thing off and on at work. And you are much better than I........
We'll see, Mama!

there is an re 8 - in the same family as the other re's - meaning "the most"
any hints for To8x1?! thanks
hi all. can anyone help me out with my last one: tw5/18?
to 8 - having "more of" the things in your mouth
Ren, is mez your Rebi. My brother is retiring in May. I am waiting to see if they ask me to speak or not. My wife says I am insane why should they, my other brother thinks I am borderline crazy and I think they should ask me. Tell me am I off or what?
come on baby, let's do the...
cibo- to 8 = more of those thingies in your mouth
to 8 = more than to5/12
marc - you should speak! he's your bro - right!!! mez is my rebi
does anybody have any clues for the words that start with Z?
leslieann: and the fish just slapped me...thanks....and done!
ren, thanks for your hint on te 6/27
congrats lgorms!
I have zo 5/18
z + what you might call it if you stub your toe (zo5)
GreyWolf, i have been fine, how about you?
**F**I**R**E**W**O**R**K**S** for igorms!!!!
all right then... zo + first two letters of the direction that's not left
Marc: You should speak unless he has kids that should also speak. But I vote to speak. Why does your wife think you are crazy?
y/w izzy
joy: zo4, think the masked swordsman with a different last vowel
Joy Lee - one rhymes with story and the other is an exclamation you might hear Batman say while battling the bad guys
hellooooo....4 more words to go. te6/27?.....the last 2 em6/21s???
ty renfield and leslie
Exhausted, Marc -- Sebastian is a much fussier infant than Kristianna was. Otherwise, the new job is going well and everyone is healthy -- everything beyond that is gravy :)
ya leslie ann! yay igorms! yay mama for those fine clues!
yay t-owl for yaying!!!
te 6/27, try the next te4/6 minus the last letter + a group of guys
te 6/27 ..... te + 7th alphabet letter + male people (more than one)
is there a zo/7 if there is can you give a clue?
tim, add two different last letters to your em 5/12
tim, the em's = make the em5/12 more and plural
fo5? az?
No zo 7.......
thanks mama and lgorms.
Woulfie: Boys are always more aggresive than girls. Welcome to the world of boys. It doesn't stop in infantsy it continues into adulthood. Enjoy tho. You can survive, I did.
TO: fo5 = the place you walk into in a building
fo 5 - where you might wait before your hosts are ready, az - a + maga****
fo 5 - the tiny "room" that is your front door hallway
er, *getting* ready. probably a better idea to read mama's clue
lgorms: those 3 words are the last 3 words I need....em5/12 and the last 2 em6's...???
Tim - e + the tiny river that surrounds a castle
TO, the az = A six-membered heterocyclic compound, such as pyridine, that contains one or more atoms of nitrogen with a ring structure resembling that of benzene-- if that helps
em's - to show emotion
igorms: i was just discussing six-membered heterocyclic compounds earlier today - doh!
em 5 = re6/21 minus the first letter
TO, lol, how about the word rhymes with "seen"
Thanks mamabear and lgorms...I'm done 172 words..
yay tim!
CONGRATs Tim, you are done!!
anyone else need help before i roll?
**F**I**R**E**W**O**R**K**S** for tim!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone got a clue for the longest word in the puzzle?

26 words left on the grid, 26 words on the grid...i'm in the he's yep yep yep 26 words on the grid...8-D
Stub: ey8/55: what you see with = what helps you chew (the pearly whites)
My wife thinks it is all about my ego wanting to speak. Truthfully, it probably is, I love to show off that I can speak. I do it for a living so when I get a chance in front of family and friends why not? He has kids but they don't want to speak, and the other brother doesn't speak. He starts to cry and gets emotional.
18 left here -- working backwards to close out letters -- I am in the mi's :)
go rennie! go rennie!
lgorms: Thanks. That's a word?!
speak marc..speak!!!!
stub, the 2nd = should be a +
Meh, I think I'll do IronSudoku for now. Doesn't take a whole lot of creative thinking.
okay all, good luck and good night!
I told you you wouldn't have any trouble, GW!!!! ;)
Grey, I remember those days. My baby now is 24. Hang in there and give you wife as much support as possible during these times. It is the greatest thing you can do. I remember spending hours in the middle of the night trying to get the babies to go back to sleep. Rocking to them and singing to them. Singing works especially if you have horrible voice like me. They would rather sleep then have to listen to you anymore.
LOL Marc!!!!!
LOL marc!!!!
I'll keep that in mind, Marc -- LOL :)
Thanks for the support, Ren but I have to wait and see if I am invited.
See ya Igorms!!!!!!
hint marc...hint
bye igorms! i must have a blind spot - i am missing the first three gr words!
hi, all! I was busy today...if you want to see why, check out the resource page.
night mamabear!
there are no gr words, hon!!!! do you mean ge's?
are ya leaving igorms?
Believe me I have hinted through my other brother, but he doesn't think I should speak but he did tell them that I would like to. The Rabbi is clueless and should be at this point.
You are awesome, angelsong.... and very talented!
TO - the 3 ge's are same as the re's but with g's instead
TO - the first ge 5 has no vowel at the end.
Mama, sounds like you are pleased with my work!
golly marc..are you invited? who's actually hosting? who is in charge of the entertainment? go for it!!!!
I need 3 mi's -- I'm pretty sure I am missing the mi4/mi5/mi4 trio
GW - do you have the gold mi**????? and a person who digs in it?
wolf - do you have the mi 4 "your" **** and ours?" mi 5 - sosmeone who works in coal under ground?
how about the very short skirt?
got them -- I am sooo tired -- I saw the 5 earlier and never typed it in
wolf's got a very short skirt???
whoo-hoo!!!!!!!!
Hi.
the party animal is here - hey torg!!!
Good evening, Mr. Torgone
please i need a clue for me5/12 it's my last one
funny how you arrive just when we are discussing short skirts.....hmmmmmmm????????
Funny indeed ..
me 5/12 - me + *** the season to be jolly.......
he5/14 -- not the plural
please?
how is everything in your world, tor? Still planning on moving?
he + abbreviation for 60 seconds
he 5/14 - he + the first 3 letters of that short skirt word
a wild friday night we're having, eh? while you're in the m's how about mi5/22 or mi6/21? my brain hurts, needs hint.
mi 6/21 = mi +4th vowel + opposite of bro
thank you mama bear it make my granddaughter happy to know we finished!!!
**F**I**R**E**W**O**R**K**S** for cindasu and granddaughter!!!!!
BOOM
Moving? Not I. Must be someone else .. In fact, I may not move from my chair for several hours .. Except to freshen drinky-poos ..
ren you made her day with fireworks thanks
torg...getup...was that timed?????
thanks, renf, i'm finding there are SO many ways to spell that word!
y/w cindasu...mrp started the fireworks!!!!
Tor - I seem to recall a few weeks ago you were thinking about moving out of state....
I just logged on. The torgone Babble, booze, and chicken katsu party is on!
she's 10 and has seen me get them but she helped alot on this one so they are mostly for her. shes a great monkeytyper
mama - i think torg was singing the frank zappa dental floss king song about moving to montano
The synogogue is in charge, my brother the Rabbi is not involved and one of my brother's oldest friends is heading it up. But these guys have been clueless. They wanted my other brother who has been a member for as long as the Rabbi has been there, almost 40 years, to host one of the events and handle the food for it as he is a Kosher caterer, then they told him no they wanted to have someone else do it and also they would handle the food as well and not use him. These guys are amazing. Don't you love to just cavel. I am not sure it is a good thing but soooo much fun.
You must have me confused with some other cool guy, Mama ..
And I am done!!!!!! and now I must go to sleep before I break my nose on the monitor -- it's been a fight to keep my head upright for a while now -- ((**HUGS to all**)) Thanks for your help :)
mi 6/21 = mi is also similiar to the my...
Good nite GW... sleep well and sweet dreeemmmzzzzzz ((((GW))))))
that is really kool cindasu and granddaughter!!! great going helping find the words!!!
Nite GW! Sleep well ..
night wolf
I know it was you, Tor.... you were talking about moving to Colorado or something like that..... am I crazy?
Yes.
she spells by sounding out the words which works for alot of the words here
mama...torg was alos going to get a pigmy pony when he moved to montano....
Is that what it was Rennie? He was singing a song???? See what happens when you hop in and out of the chat log and only read bits and pieces!!!!!! And I am not! Well, maybe a little.
Sorry. Not me. I'm (relatively) happy here in sunny SoCal ..
AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaahhhhhhh yeah!!!!! I was going to be a dental floss tycoon!!!
Need a clue for my last g it is the 2nd ge6/27?
marc...is that why your wife thinks that is a meshuggeneh idea?
and moving to montano soon....
marc it is the same last letters as re 6/21
Got the ge thanks anyway, Ren, no my wife doesn't like it when I want to do things just for my ego. She thinks it is misplaced and she is probably right. But it is there anyway.
marc - like the ge 6 b4 it - change the last vowel to a snakey consonant
I knew I heard it.....
Just me and my pigmy pony ... You guys remember that?
Oh NOW you remember it.... after you've called ME crazy!!! I see how it goes!!!!!
then...feed the ego!!!!! "we only go around once on this great big planet of love...."
yes torg...frank zappa...torg...yes
oots? not even in the dictionary...just a monkey word, seems like.
You have a good memory. Doesn't mean you're not crazy . . .
Anyone have se6/18? thanks....
I keed, Mama!
se 6 - add "either **" to the 4 above it
se 6/18 = se + 3rd vowel + opposite of bro
Yes that is true, Tor....... the sad thing is that if I didn't have such a good memory, I would not remember that I am crazy! eh?
for get my clue....i don't know what i'm talking about....i need some blue bunny cherry vanilla ice cream....8)
clue for he6/21?
RENNIE-STILTSKIN
