Will 159 words be difficult?

2:48 am

only got 56 so far, don't have a good feeling.

ti9/78 is a gorgeous word!

2:49 am

Hi MrP, can we have a clue for that, I have nothing over a 5 so far :(

exw... you are in the grid again today!

ti9 = ti5/14 + ey4/6 then take the plural away for the ti8 - beautiful coloured stone!

2:51 am

I haven't decided yet mrp, it looks a bit tricky

2:53 am

good clue got them both thanks.

2:53 am

But if I do play, I have the ti9! thanks to you mrp

exw. it is tricky as the endings are not that easy!

2:58 am

Pity we didn't have a couple of e's in the bottom right hand corner, my icon would have been there!

2:59 am

dr7/40 add an ending to the dr4/5

3:01 am

3:27 am

does anyone have some of the bigger words? am having trouble finding them today

3:29 am

MrP gave clues for the 8 and 9 letter words a little earlier in the log, just scroll down to 2.51. I have no 7's yet....

3:29 am

3:32 am

3:41 am

There's a 'silly' go7/48 - a comparative.

3:42 am

That go is eluding me. I have all the other go words.

3:42 am

nice one, had the g4/9 but didn't see to build on it.

3:43 am

It works off the go4/9

3:43 am

thanks, Haz

3:43 am

You're welcome.

3:43 am

Ive been working off it. no luck.

3:44 am

pass the fish. got it.

3:44 am

Imagine an adjective relating to the go4/9 - then make it even more.

3:44 am

Good!

3:45 am

talking of fish, haven't found one in the grid so far today but have found a couple of animals.

3:47 am

Any hints for the te 7/44....

3:48 am

ni 7 builds on ni 5/10 - a club you go to in the evening

te7 add a different ending to the te5

3:50 am

te7/44 - take 1st 4 letters of the te5/18 and add 3 letter ending.

3:51 am

ty MrP and FMitch :)

3:53 am

3:54 am

3:54 am

the re's are not too bad tonight.

3:55 am

Eren, SweetTooth just gave a great clue for that if you scroll back.

3:57 am

That didnt do it for me. I have the ni5/10 and the ni 6/24.

3:58 am

change the ending of your ni 6 to an alt. spelling

3:58 am

take the 6/24 and play around with the ending letters.

3:58 am

Oh., I changed the y to ie.

4:00 am

I kept going for ia before

4:00 am

I'm breaking for a bit, see you later folks :) Bye MrP, Haz, FMitch!

4:00 am

TTFN Trish :)

4:00 am

4:01 am

Come in, ex-Wren - it's fine.

4:03 am

Brrrr, it's cold

The qu5/16 - all the letters are contained within the little square in the corner.

ExW. I have joined the monarchy... new icon! BTW... you are the odd spot of the day!

4:22 am

anyone got a clue for the 2nd re5/14 (got the one that relates to monarchy) - how topical!

4:23 am

FMitch - it's an anagram of the other re5/14.

4:23 am

morning all :) FMitch, don't know the def, but it's an anagram of the other re5/14

4:24 am

Switch the position of the last letter

4:24 am

Good morning, chessy.

OK my little UK friends! I need a new odd spot for tomorrow!! Thinking caps on....

4:27 am

It is against the law to whale hunt in Oklahoma. (Think about it...) A Venetian law decrees that all gondolas must be painted black. The only exceptions are gondolas belonging to high public officials. In the state of Queensland, Australia, it is still constitutional law that all pubs (hotel/bar) must have a railing outside for patrons to tie up their horse.

get outta here... for real? again??

4:29 am

trust me, Im a babble addict and love triva too.

4:29 am

FMItch - you're my kind of person! All sorts of information there, stored up ready for use.

4:29 am

Wow! I've never been called an 'odd spot' before. Oddball maybe

Fmitch, have you been reading 26 pointless facts again??

4:32 am

LOL more like 1026!! Ahh the witching hour has arrived and I must take a back seat (the lurking one) as have work to do. It has been much fun as always (will be keeping an eye on the log).

4:50 am

movieman - you mean that currently she is an Ex-Bird?

4:53 am

If you thought that was freaky, Mrp, try this: If you have a tapeworm living in your stomach, it will come up when you're asleep to lick the salt off your lips.....

4:54 am

Thanks faerie - I needed someone to kick me in the butt. I'm out. be back soon.

6:47 am

I can't type today. The words are all mixed up for some reason LOL

6:47 am

No, it was a big jar of the Jelly Belly 40 flavors and Tropical Fruit mix (minus the licorice ones I pulled out b/c she hates licorice), a little chocolate bunny I forgot to throw in her easter basket and a big stuffed monkey that sorta looked like her.

6:47 am

7:03 am

Capone - you would fit in the trunk of my car very nicely that's where..

7:04 am

Here's a link for all the National Candy Days: http://www.candyusa.org/ Classroom/calendar.asp

Capone I didn't realize you were a fudgey boy *teehee*

7:13 am

UGH Capone --- it is tooo early in the morning for THAT!

7:14 am

Yep it is all about me - read my avatar.

7:16 am

Speaking of chocolate -- My bestest buddy and friend gave me a box of Crunch Dark Sticks. They are new and that are FABULOUS!!! And there is less than 100 calories in each stick (so they aren't too bad unless you eat the whole box at one time).

7:16 am

Faerie, email, May explained!

7:17 am

Music is the Queen for the day :)

7:19 am

Ahhhh it's good to be queen.

7:19 am

Capone - I didn't realize there was an entire month devoted to that. I'll have to get in on the action myself *teehee*

7:20 am

LOL. Yahoo IM Webcam conference on 5/15, 9pm eastern, pst for details.

7:21 am

7:40 am

Capone that isn't until May

7:41 am

I honestly plan on being here most of the day. I already informed the family. I am going into town around 11 to meet Greg because he bribed me with lunch out. I'm going to go to the Lollipop (a local candy store) and get some choc. covered cashews too. They have them covered in dark choco.

7:41 am

you know, I could easily make space on the resource page for a list of Babblers' birthdays by month and day...what do you guys think?

7:41 am

mmmmmmmmmm sounds great MM

7:41 am

Angel I think that would be great.

7:42 am

Angel - excellent idea :) Mine is June 14th *teehee*

7:42 am

Angel I think that would be great!

7:42 am

mine is Aug.11

7:43 am

Angel - that's the best idea I've heard for ages.... My birthday is February 22nd by the way....

7:43 am

{{{MovieMan}}} good morning :)

7:43 am

faerie.......hiya!!!!!!

7:43 am

Every day is May for me Faerie....

7:44 am

7:44 am

7:44 am

Hi All - Happy Birthday MM

7:44 am

Hi Spellit - thanks.

7:44 am

7:45 am

LOL Capone - looking that way for me also right now. Thats not gross is it?

7:45 am

Poor TSM? Poor ME!

7:45 am

Unfortunately everyone remembers my birthday - Sep 11th

7:46 am

Nope, not at all.

7:46 am

yeah whatever! Capone

7:46 am

lets get off the thread hijacking and get back to talking about Mmoms birthday!

7:46 am

ok. I'm starting a birthday list. so far I have Shorty's, Faerie's, Movieman's, MusicMoms, and mine...

7:47 am

Angel - and punster's is May 2nd....

7:47 am

Angel - Capones is the entire month of May lol

7:47 am

That would be hard Spellit. BGL's birthday is August 25

7:47 am

No, my b-day is 10/28 May is the party month.

7:48 am

LOL GReat one Faerie!!!

7:48 am

Hi all, I'm back for another try at today's grid. How you doing movieman?

7:48 am

Music - you must then know what the Month of May is also LOL

7:48 am

Scorpio and Ox for all you star tards.

7:49 am

I'm fine, punster..... Down to 12 words now, although I have been using lickety & enable for my last 20 or so.....

morning all down to my last word and i can't get it for the life of me, was going to try and not ask for any clues this puzzle , but can i pls have the ne 6/18 ty

7:49 am

Yes faerie - unfortunately I do

7:50 am

My birthday is 2nd of May. Movieman I'd prefer it if you didn't talk about me and let me tell my own personal details - its a tad irritating.

7:50 am

sheryl - same as the ne6 before it, but change the last letter....

7:50 am

LOL

7:50 am

If I keep collecting birthdays in the chat, it will take forever, and I'm bound to miss some. Do you think if I post a thread on BA, people would post their birthdays there so I can collect them for the resource page, or is it worth doing?

7:50 am

I don't have it sheryl but I'll help you look.

7:51 am

Sorry about that punster.......LOL

7:51 am

Is there a clue for TE 7/44?

7:51 am

You could try it Angel. Probably would be easier to access that way.

7:51 am

I forgive, but I never forget ^_^

7:52 am

Angelsong! I'll post my birthday! Hi everyone. I'm teaching a seminar this morning, so I'll have a late start to babble.

duh pass the fish, should have got that one and it would have been my first puzzle on my own, lol, not counting using the list, gotta have the list

ty movieman

angel i think that is a great idea for the birthdays

7:53 am

Hi Deustch. === bye

7:53 am

Angel I think that would be an excellent idea. That way those that want to can and those that don't, don't have to.

7:53 am

I wonder if I will get a te5/18 today

7:53 am

punster - how many more do you need, then.......

7:54 am

Does anyone have a clue for the te 7,44? I'm getting nowhere.

7:55 am

He's named after the first Roosevelt. te 5/15

merk change your ending on the te 5/18

7:55 am

Oops te 5,18

7:55 am

I'm looking for it too Merk. Hmmm I wasn't thinking the fuzzy kind of te5/18 although that would be sweet too.

7:55 am

I tried that, I thought, but couldn't get to the letters I needed.

te 5/18 what little kiddies go to bed with to cuddle

7:58 am

nope not finding that te7 any other help?

7:58 am

OOO got it. Merk. make your 5/18 an action verb

7:58 am

punster - you still there?

7:58 am

What am I doing wrong with te 7,44. If I drop the last letter of 5/18, I can't get to another vowel.

7:59 am

ok peps i gotta run I HAVE to cut my grass I'll BBL have fun

7:59 am

Yup just busy

7:59 am

go up to the top d and then drop down merk. That was tricky

7:59 am

Instead of a bear, he has tobe an action verb. What I really need a hint on his what the fifth letter is.

8:00 am

merk third vowel

8:00 am

ok. there'ps a Birthday List thread up in BA under Meet and Greet. Post away!

8:00 am

punster - how many more do you need, then.....

8:01 am

Well better get going. Havent done much of the grid the last few days b/c I've been trying to get all the work off my desk before I go on vaca next week. Just logged on to pick on my fave SBB and say hi to everyone else. Have a great birthday Mmom! Faerie /speeeeeeeeak a mouse! TSM /lick /wave bye all others

8:01 am

24

8:01 am

Bye capone have an enjoyable day

8:01 am

Gonna start using the clues properly

8:02 am

ty capone. Did you get it merk?

8:02 am

I'm still trying to think of an action verb that starts out that way.

8:02 am

see ya Capone :)

8:02 am

ugh, enjoyable will be the last kind of day I will be having.

8:02 am

I got it. That's a verb? What does it mean?

8:03 am

LOL capone you sound like my daughter. Just look on the sunny side!

8:03 am

Thanks for your help!!!

8:03 am

I don't know

8:03 am

10 days off is all I'm looking at come 4pm!

8:04 am

See now you're getting it. The sunny side!!!

8:06 am

Always got it. LOL, just have a hard time seeing the forest through all the chopped down trees that are stacked on my desk.

8:06 am

Do you have a circular file? <G>

8:06 am

And damn this addiction. Keep trying to find words instead of quitting the browser!

8:07 am

you could clear it in 30 seconds and not have to wait until 4 to leave -- and you would probably get more than 10 days off. Eating might become an issue

8:07 am

but you have licorice jelly beans. Ration them.

8:07 am

no, those became food for the neighborhood feral cats

8:08 am

ewwwwww you wasted them.

8:08 am

I'm not helping you get back to work am I?

8:08 am

I hate licorice too..lol. I took the bullet for TSM and picked them out.

8:09 am

don't remind me...work... /puke

8:09 am

Thanks Angel :)

8:10 am

I blew off yoga to find words - you can blow off work. Look at it this way - it will still be there 10 days from now.

8:10 am

Happy Birthday, MusicMom! What is it 40? ;)

8:11 am

good morning all. here to hack away a bit. is it a tough one?

8:11 am

Not yet BGL Not yet. <G> Thanks. Hey congrats on your finish last night. Hi BBnaz

8:12 am

I got carded at Walmart yesterday buying a bottle wine. I couldn't help but crack up!

8:12 am

AAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDD..... .... It's time for the doneness dance again!!!!!! Anyone care to join me on the floor?

8:12 am

brb

8:12 am

I really just started bb but I don't think it is too bad yet.

8:13 am

Thanks, gotta actually do some work. Just popped in to say "hi" and happy b-day. I'll be back later (probably around lunch time or after the seminar tonight)

8:13 am

CONGRATULATIONS MOVIEMAN WHOOT!!!

8:13 am

Whooooooweeeee movieman -- watch you groove. Did you learn that watching Saturday Night Fever or Boogie Nights?

8:13 am

Okay see you later. Greg is taking me to lunch but then I'll be around.

8:13 am

morning all

8:14 am

I got carded at WalMart for rubber cement! How stupid! JOsh got carded for spray paint... but oh to buy alcohol at a store... I hate PA laws!

8:14 am

Hi ya Hursh

8:14 am

Neither, MM - it was the SNF spoof bit of Airplane!

8:14 am

LOL that is even funnier. Sarah had to come get me because they wouldn't let her buy one little bottle of whiteout for her school project.

8:14 am

hi SMF, CHS :)

8:15 am

LOL movieman!

8:15 am

Hiya, SCD.....

8:15 am

How is SCD today?

8:16 am

SCD is getting kicked off the computer for a bit bc her husband wants to write a test (maybe she can convince him to use laptop...)

8:16 am

How rude! LOL

8:17 am

"I blew off yoga to find words - you can blow off work. Look at it this way - it will still be there 10 days from now." QFT Mmom!! And they will probably call me 20 times in the 5 actual work days I'm off.

8:18 am

<smirky grin>

8:18 am

Afternoon musicmom, I did say happy birthday to you this morning, but I'm afraid I also had to pay tribute to the other Birthday girl as well

8:18 am

morning Hurshy

8:18 am

Good morning ExWren. Thank you. All royalty is due their time.

8:19 am

I need to know: Do you have a preference as to where I put the Babbler's Birthdays List? should it go in the Sidebar, or in the main content section? I vote for the Sidebar. People can open it if they like, and it's out of the way. Opinions?

8:19 am

musicmom said a word....................!

8:21 am

That is pathetic. I don't even know what I said

8:21 am

Hi everyone. Been quietly babbling away. Just ****FINISHED****** If anyone needs any clues, I have some spare time?!

8:22 am

that means I'll probably do it again.

8:23 am

Hi all. MusicMom - the word you said had to do with a little brown bird.

8:23 am

Congrats Ishult

8:23 am

whats my name mm?

8:23 am

UGH!@!**@) I was tricked.

8:24 am

Phooeeeeyyy. I just don't like calling you ex -- it sounds wrong.

8:24 am

good morning little brown bird who today looks like the 80 year old queen!

8:24 am

brb -=--- losing battery power. Need to move back inside.

8:26 am

I'm not wearing my tiara today!

8:26 am

:-)

8:27 am

Why hello Jacula. Nice to see you.

8:27 am

been working out I see.

hello jacs! : )

8:28 am

Hello Bbnaz. I was just quietly getting on with the grid but I couldn't resist piping up just.

8:29 am

Hi Temple.

8:29 am

okay I'm back. TO love the icon! I'm wearing my tiara today<G>

8:29 am

Happy Birthday MM.

8:29 am

Well Jacs, ex and bb - I'm glad you all piped up or I probably would have done that a million times.

8:30 am

Thanks Jac.

8:31 am

nope not me. even though i had already found that particular bird, it didn't even register as I am trying to find that pesky DE5

8:32 am

de5? Must look for that myself. (Not using the list yet.)

8:34 am

de5/16 - rhymes with what the queen does (actually, the queen probably does this, too. She might de5 to nod graciously at you, for example.)

hi musicmom! i think you were on your way out when i joined and wished you happy birthday.

8:35 am

Thanks TO I appreciate it.

8:36 am

Oh Vicuna, We are most appreciative for that lovely hint!

8:36 am

the de5/16 is the same as the re5/14.Just change the first letter

8:36 am

Vicuna - Thanks. Got it.:)

8:36 am

MM have a snappy happy birthday and all of that gleeful greetings!

8:37 am

Thansk bb

8:37 am

Hey, happy birthday, musicmom!

8:37 am

Marigold - I'd got the horsey version of that bu not the royal one. Thanks!

8:38 am

thank you for the RE Marigold!

8:38 am

a mere 111 to go!

8:39 am

um make that 110, Thanks Jac!

8:39 am

yw

8:40 am

I think re+go4/9 should be a word. That's what you do when you put a word in the log over and over.

8:40 am

Groan...just got to the re's

8:40 am

56 words to go here.

8:41 am

Me too your highness.

8:41 am

If you net a fish again, surely you renet it?

8:41 am

I'm in the re words. I don't think there should be any today.

8:42 am

...And if your specs steam up again they refog.

8:42 am

Can anyone help me out with the first ti 5/14?

8:42 am

past tense of the 4/5 before it.

8:43 am

and if you make another hole you redig

8:43 am

and if you stir a christmas drink again it is renog.

8:43 am

I agree Jacula - if you can re6/27 then you can re just about anything!

8:44 am

Thanks musicmom! I would have sworn I'd tried that already. Oh well, one less to go now :)

8:44 am

do you mean the ti5/14? If that is the one think of a large cat.

8:44 am

if you fix the soles of your children's pajamas, you refoot them

8:45 am

NO DOUBT Mac. Although I did re6/27 my wedding shoes. First to lavendar and then to black.

8:46 am

I guess technically I re5/16 them.

8:46 am

heh, thanks musicmom - didn't have that one - I was referring to another re6/27... and Happy Birthday!

8:47 am

Thanks. And hmmmmmm I didn't know there was a nother one. going looking.

8:49 am

Ha! Got it --- now that is stupid!

8:50 am

lol, my point precisely

8:55 am

LOL - Greg is not taking me to lunch today. We had to borrow a friend's car yesterday because my van is in the shop ---- Greg put the key to the car in his pocket and drove off to work with it. I have no way to get to town. He's upset but I think it is funny.

8:57 am

That is something typical for me to do, not him.

9:01 am

hello!

9:01 am

Hi Harp. How are you?

9:01 am

Love your icon!

9:02 am

howdy Harp

9:02 am

oh i am back

9:02 am

Another re6/27 other than the changing colour one? Hmmm... *goes looking*

9:03 am

Hi hurshy

9:03 am

it's a stupid one jac.

9:03 am

Hi Harp & Hurshy.

9:03 am

*sings* i'm forever blowing bubbles...

hi hurshy, harp!

9:04 am

fun Hurshy. may I join you?

9:04 am

I'm good. I don't have a tiara either!

9:04 am

hi temple, harp, jac, bbnaz, SMF, etc etc etc

9:04 am

always, SMF :)

9:05 am

can someone please tell me if there are any GN's in the puzzle today?

9:05 am

nope not today Hurshy.

9:06 am

No, hurshy, none of those.

9:06 am

phew, that's a relief.

9:06 am

Damn, I can't find this other re 6/27 you've been talking about.

9:07 am

ylleria - think about a bell sound

9:07 am

well if nothing else i have the TI 8 and the TI9 so the two big words are done.........however there are 85 to go.

9:08 am

I have 93 left bbnaz. i need to quit drinking coffee and chatting.

9:08 am

Got it! What a stupid word.

9:09 am

Have just looked up the definition. That's a new word I've learned today.

*sits straight up* ti 8 and ti9?

9:10 am

Ditto, Temple.

9:10 am

ti long words--think of the theme from "Rocky" :-D

9:10 am

think of big cat and the gemstone associated with it

9:10 am

Jac - I think I would just use the def. instead of that word.

9:12 am

please, please help me with that re7/44

9:12 am

make the first 4/6 a verb

9:12 am

BBNaz - got those ti's now. Thanks.:)

9:12 am

hey, exwren! celebrating the Queen's bday are we?

9:13 am

oh, is it the queen's birthday??? maybe i will change then!

9:13 am

Yep, she is 80 today

9:14 am

Thanks Little Brown Bird & MM - got that re7 now. *Sings 'Sitting on the dock of the bay....'

9:14 am

<singing> feeeling groovy all my r's are done and it is grey. Ohhhhhh that just reminded me of a song perody. <singing a different tune> All the r's are done and the block is grey. I'm off to the qu' s on my birthday......

9:15 am

HAHAHAHAHAA Une said a word too.

9:15 am

9:15 am

yes jac, thanks to mm so did I

9:15 am

*parody*

9:16 am

I have the Birthday List section up in the sidebar of the Resource page. If you do not see your birthday listed, it is because I don't have it; if you want me to list it, post it in BA under the Birthday List thread in Meet and Greet.

9:21 am

Angel - I've just added my birthday to your BabAnon list.

9:21 am

Only kind of icky thing is that Greg took the keys to the other car and I can't go into town and meet him for lunch today. He is much more upset about it than I am. We can go some day next week. no biggie. I am going to go grab a bite now. Be back later.

9:21 am

9:53 am

umm, jeffer...not sure how to answer that, lol! : )

9:54 am

Ha - I'm almost in the grid today :) <g>

9:56 am

*sheesh* the guy across the street died yesterday afternoon and the ex-wife is alredy over there cleaning out the house.

9:57 am

OMG - Tamara - that is so sad. She is probably just going out of her mind in grief or she is extremly happy that he is gone.

9:58 am

tamara...sounds like the key words are "ex" and "died". snort

9:58 am

Hey all! How is everyone doing today?

9:58 am

or she is emotionless and pragmatic - in short, we cannot know what other people are thinking :)

9:58 am

Jera *sprinkle*sprinkle*sprinkle*

9:59 am

we're all good except tamara's late neighbor

9:59 am

No need, FK, I'm finished, hon!

10:01 am

*dances in the fa5/20 dust* {{{LOLA}}}

10:01 am

faerie - it wasn't meant as a rebuke, i just thought it was funny

10:01 am

{{{MusicMom}}} Birthday hugs for you!!

10:01 am

Hi Jera! Any hints on SI7...or how about NI7?

10:01 am

ty

10:02 am

si7 is just like the sy7

10:02 am

lol

10:02 am

ni7 sounds like a dance club... add onto the ni4/4

10:03 am

kerplunk..........man, the more i play the better i am at picking out words but then i do such a miss........

10:03 am

Tamara, Welcome to Babble!!! it's a great place with grand people.......and a few very weird words now and then :)

10:03 am

Could I get a clue for the fe 6/33, please?

10:03 am

Welcome to the club, bbnaz!! We all know that feeling well...

10:04 am

Hi, everybody! Hey, magzel, did you get the ti's? Start w/ a big jungle cat w/stripes and add what you see with.

10:04 am

I can use ALL the help I can get. This vacation stuff is something to which I am unaccustomed and my brain has died....

10:04 am

The process of charging for service. Or remove a consonant from the fe7

10:04 am

now and then angel? weird words are the rule

10:04 am

hi gramma : )

10:04 am

ah but that would only be NI6 wouldn't it Jera?

10:04 am

2 big jungle cats today, one a mix!!

10:04 am

bbnaz, there's a 6 and a 7, alternate endings

10:05 am

but no spots! only stripes.

10:05 am

ni6 ends with the sometimes vowel. ni7 sounds the same but needs 2 vowels to make that sound

10:07 am

man my chimp fingers are rather pathetic. thanks ever so much. Only 40 to go.

10:07 am

Tamara - do you have yahoo IM?

10:08 am

No problem... gonna go grab some lunch now... back later! *poof*

10:08 am

Later Jera

10:09 am

Bye Jera...enjoy!

10:09 am

10:16 am

No actually just taking a Coke break.

10:16 am

10:16 am

10:16 am

gramma. i didn't really understand your message but we are all fine. off work for 5 days but rain in the forecast. yuck.

...........................

10:22 am

magzel, I said Your Welcome. ...and then I was addressing ToeSock Monkey. I was inquiring about her and the fetus. I don't know if she calls it Francis the Fetus or Eggbert or.....what?

10:22 am

Whats your deal TSM?

10:23 am

gramma - tsm lost the baby...

10:23 am

Fetus is no longer an issue Gramms. But thanks for asking.

10:24 am

OK..back to the grid..any clues for the FE's?

10:25 am

Oh crap! I am soooo sorry. I've been wrapped up in my husbands medical stuff and I didn't know. I apologize. Please understand, I'm very sorry.

10:26 am

Its ok.

10:26 am

TSM that is very cute!

Gramma.... it's ok. You did not know. A few people didn't know....

Oh thank you. I was in a Dumbo mood.... That movie makes me cry.... OH! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

10:28 am

I didn't know either. I am very sorry to hear that, TSM, Capone.

10:28 am

Aw, TSM put the new self pic I took on my cam phone as her avatar..... /blushes

10:28 am

(TSM, is that the right thing to do, when people don't know? i say what happened so you don't have to but i don't know if that is what you want)

10:28 am

Thanks TSM. Dumbo makes me cry too. Of course, I cry at commercials too. The Budweiser one with the Clydesdale colt is enough to drown me.

10:29 am

HEY {{{{{{{TSM}}}}}} how are you

LOL Hurshy

Babbler - is that Arwen from LOTR? Liv Tyler? Capone - ? :(

10:34 am

i knew imaginary numbers would come in handy someday

10:34 am

mm, ty and happy b-day!

(((((((Shorty))))))))) I am better these days.... yourself?

Hurshy what do you mean by that one post? A little confused here

10:34 am

ty and yw gramma

10:35 am

Toes, :D:D:D yes it is!

10:35 am

toof

10:35 am

i mean when people say things where they clearly don't know what happened, is it good for someone else to jump in and tell them so that you don't have to?

MM - Yeah Dumbo is a tear jerker!

Hurshy - yeah it's nice to have that. I would rather not bring it up. I think everyone can understand why. It's hard to have to chat about it when I just want to not be angry about it any more. So to all the ones that pipe in, THANK YOU

10:37 am

ok, good, that is what i figured but i wanted to make sure.

10:38 am

im stuck at 60 ack :)

10:38 am

Shit happens, life goes on, end of story.

Babbler - Awesome icon choice! I love her in that movie.... Capone - How are you feeling?

10:38 am

TSM - the other one that can dissolve me to tears is fox and hound.

10:38 am

thanks, Toes! I think it's beautiful. : D

10:39 am

Morning friends. ((((((hugs)))))) to all!

10:39 am

i always start crying right at the beginning of "it's a wonderful life"

10:39 am

aww fox and the hound :(

Hurshy - yes completely. mean a lot to know you know too :) Capone - :( MM - I agree with you. Fox and hound is a hard one to watch too... Benji was always hard on me too.

10:39 am

hurshy - that's one of my favourite films.

Hey kristin

10:39 am

my parents had to fast foward the beginning of bambi =/

10:40 am

Hi Kristin

I never saw that movie.... is that wrogn or what?

carra! OMG! BAMBI!

10:40 am

aw! Fox and the Hound, you guys are killing me this early. I just think of that movie and cry Hi TSM!

10:40 am

TSM - I didn't see it until a couple of years ago. It is a good one.

I need to watch some LOTR now.... thanks to BABBLER! lol You have me thinking about that movie.... Amazing love story with Arwen and Aragorn.... *swoons*

10:41 am

good morning, all -- TSM! i've missed you!

10:41 am

Amazing how intense those cartoons are considering they are children's films.

10:42 am

i know i've said this before but... aragorn and the doors!!!

mm - yeah it is Capone - you ok?

stidmama!!!!!!!! hehehe ((((((big hugs))))))

brb, i need to run around the corner to get something at the store.

10:43 am

Hi stid

10:43 am

agreed, Toes *swoons also* !! you should try and see It's A Wonderful Life. It makes you cry, but it makes you feel great too. I recommend it!

10:43 am

bye tsm

10:43 am

greetings, stidmama

10:44 am

ty kristin I don't have either Hurshy

10:46 am

musicmum, it's my youngest's 16th today as well HAPPY BIRTHDAY

10:47 am

the third letter must be r, e, or a. the a seems pretty much impossible, and e unlikely, so i'm betting r.

10:47 am

musicmom - if someone does re 6/27 a bell, does that mean an angel loses their wings? BTW - Happy BDay

10:47 am

ty scatty and happy birthday to your 'baby'

11:15 am

I missed the beginning of GWHIM. cake is in the oven for 32 minutes.

11:15 am

Nan-but I needed that one, so thanks!

11:16 am

yw Eren....last 2 ne's water nymphs I think !

11:16 am

11:17 am

karys probably has 10 points from me then, i gotta find those!

11:17 am

anyone got a clue for the fo 5/20?

11:17 am

ti5/14 that is not a past tense Hurshy

11:18 am

yes, SMF :)

11:18 am

TY!

11:18 am

Happy Birthday musicmom

11:18 am

ylleria - an old fo*** (rhymes with word for cigar)

11:18 am

KatieW Iam off the phone now!!!!!!!

11:18 am

11:19 am

ylleria...fo5...starts with dense mist...end in 2 vowels

11:19 am

Thanks hurshy!

11:19 am

oh, no rycaut - nobody told me there were two! :)

11:19 am

How about ti5/10

11:20 am

5 points each to SMF and rycaut!

11:20 am

ty cait

11:20 am

Are you missing two ti from the bottom left now?

11:21 am

yiddish for definition btw

11:21 am

well, i dunno, SMF, could be ti or te i would suppose

11:22 am

Okay how about te 5/10. I just realized that one came from there

11:22 am

the bird? i have the bird.

11:22 am

yes the bird- do you have the te5/18

11:23 am

the bear? i have the bear. :)

11:23 am

how many ti 5/14 do you have?

11:23 am

yiddish again - no wonder i have troubles

11:23 am

yes the bear

11:24 am

is the fe 6/33 related to the two above it?

11:24 am

what's yiddish? I mean which one. I know what yiddish is.

11:24 am

can anyone please give me a clue for the ni 7/28

11:24 am

kristin - sort of --- drop a consonant

11:24 am

the go 5/20 i am missing, i believe rycaut is saying is yiddish

11:25 am

go5/20 should not be a word

11:25 am

the second go 5/20

11:25 am

mm-oh brother! Thanks

11:25 am

hey smaller!!! :D

11:25 am

it is a word - but from yiddish, hence the spelling... (that's a hint btw)

11:26 am

hannah....2 vowels on the end of ni5/10

11:26 am

hannah lou - take you ni5/10 and add the vowels used in the word to the end

11:26 am

let me think, i know only a couple yiddish words so am not familiar with the spelling patterns overall

11:26 am

hannah add 2 different vowels to the end of ni5/10

11:26 am

HEY sherb!! ohhhh! thanks rycaut!

11:27 am

ok i found it. :)

11:27 am

11:49 am

thanks sha. Okay the yiddish go 5/20 is not happening for me - any help?

11:49 am

Miy - I haven't seen or heard from you in ages so you get a bigger hug to make up for lost time :) ... So why do you need fake blood?

11:50 am

Thanks Mikey _ I hope that says Happy Birthday<G>

11:50 am

oooh Woulf...LONG story...^^ well, not really, I just need to make some clothes look bloodstained...er *coughs* it's a bizarre life I lead, bizarre I say XD

11:51 am

it's going well, Schro, thanks for asking... I'm enjoying it... most of the time... :)

ja; it sure does, Musicmom! ;-) and it's ok, GreyWoulf; i was very quiet, with my nose in the grid.....and i'm rather tired today, but surviving! :-P

11:52 am

any help on the qu 5/16?

11:52 am

Miy -OK, but, remember that rusty water stains can be a good substitute from a distance depending on the material ;)

11:52 am

Mikey im sory you havent been well whats been wrong?

11:52 am

for those who missed it earlier, there's a Birthday List thread on BA under Meet and Greet, if you want your birthday month and day included on the Resource page.

11:52 am

Musicmom, actually German does not have a direct "Happy Birthday" phrase. Literally Mickey's phrase says All good things for your birthday.

11:53 am

LOL Woulf!!! ...you sound like you've done this before...XD

11:53 am

How many Q words are there? I have two.

Miyavi_fan, try ketchup/tomato sauce and tea or hot chocolate, blended.....you'll have to adjust til you have just the right shade for a bloodstain, but should be pretty good! :-P

11:54 am

Thanks Inge --- and Mikey

11:54 am

By the way, Musicmom, I have been eating birthday cake for an hour, but haven't send my wishes to you yet. Here they are!!!!!

11:54 am

I only have one - need help with the other

11:54 am

There are many sides to the woulf, Miy.... ;)

yes, Inge; but it's how we wish someone a happy/good birthday, so i didn't think an explanation was needed, really.....but thanks for supplying one, all the same! ;-)

11:55 am

Well Sherb enjoying work most of the time is better than not at all.....

11:55 am

lmao, Mikey...I'm disturbed everyone knows how to do this XD Woulf...should I ask?! Do I want to know? ^^;

11:55 am

Thanks inge. I just took the cake out of the oven but don't get to eat it until tomorrow when my mom and grandma get here.

11:55 am

One is a game played outdoors.

11:56 am

I could have sworn I had tried that... got it - thanks

11:56 am

Felecitations on your natal anniversary, Musicmom!!

oh no, Caitlyn; i'm *very* well, not to worry.....i'm just in the somewhat lengthier than i'd like process of healing from a mitral valve repair surgery i just had this winter; but i'm doing well.....just have to realize my limits, sometimes! :-P want to get back to doing all my normal activities, which gets frustrating, to say the least!

11:57 am

Thank you thank you GW. A greeting worthy of royalty

well don't be 'disturbed' on my account, Miyavi_fan; i've been performing in musical theatre most of my life, so i do know a thing or two about these things! :-P lol

11:58 am

time to eat... back later :)

11:58 am

Bye Sherb!!!

11:59 am

Miy -- and for my part, I know a fair number of theater majors or medieval/civil war reenactors, among other hobbies :D

11:59 am

lawl, Mikey...that's what they all say XD thanks for the ideas, though! *evil grin and is away to raid the kitchen* now. step two. How to cut a perfect circle in the back of a leather jacket...

11:59 am

Bye sherb..............Glad you are recovering well Mikey

11:59 am

Why, Woulf...you think you know a man...XD

11:59 am

Miya - trace your circle on. Poke the scissors through the center and cut out to the marked edge.

12:00 pm

Miy - how big a circle?

12:01 pm

Okay. going to take a break and do somethings before the kids get home. Be back in a little bit to finish.

12:01 pm

erm...sort of...big enough for most of my back to show through, or the middle anyway...*thinking* probably about...a hands' span in radius? *coughs* lol Musicmom...that's what I thought...and many a fine leather jacket I've ruined XD I think I need sharper scissors...or a SAW...

hmm; why would 'they all' say that, Miyavi_fan? lol; it's in my Babble profile :-P

12:02 pm

See you later musicmom

12:03 pm

use an exacto knife. It will give you a smoother cut. Also. If you can temporarily baste the jacket to a piece of posterboard (card stock) it will stabilize it so it won't crinkle in the cutting. Rubber cement would work. Cut through the jacket and the board.

aw; thank you, Caitlyn.....but of course i am; i'm a very healthy individual, so not to worry! ;-)

12:03 pm

Sometimes heat can help in the process, Miy -- try in a spot in the center of the circle you are cutting out, to see if a heated cutting implement will help you out, the leather will melt rather than cut -- just watch out for the smell ;)

12:03 pm

bye cait

ja, musicmom; an exacto knife is good.....or a scalpel.....as i found out this past winter, they cut really well :-/ lol

12:04 pm

It all depends on the quality of the leather

12:04 pm

well, you know, it's a strange world out there Mikey...dipping into your profile now, and envying you! My favourite band went to Berlin...so why, whyyyy won't they come to England?! >.< woo, Woulf, Musicmom, thank you! I was just sort of...*hackhackhack...oh £^%$^+"!* before, thankyou!

*wonders why Miyavi_fan wants to make it look like she's been stabbed in the back?* :-/

12:05 pm

=O sounds a little ominous, Mikey, what happened?!

12:06 pm

oh, that...well...er...^^; I'l l just say, it's a music thing...otherwise it's a long and tedious explanation XD

hmm, Miyavi_fan; maybe 'cos this is a great place to be.....and party??? ;-) also, well; what can i say.....i'm here, of course.....so they wanted to party with me! :-D ja; and like i'd know who you're referring to? :-P hehe!

oh, nothing much, Miyavi_fan.....just a little surgery :-P

12:09 pm

any hints on the s 7's?

12:09 pm

O.O blimey, Mikey...surgery+scalpel= *fwah* lol, uh, not sure if you'll have heard of them but they're called Dir en Grey :) They're a Japanese band, they played in some MTV...er, thing...

all righty then, Miyavi_fan; so i shall just continue to wonder, then :-/

12:09 pm

(Lol, and I'm sure they did want to party with you, just as long you kept the scalpels well hidden)

12:09 pm

well, I gotta go -- I'll be back later -- at least I got 34 and some chat with my firends before the return to mundania :) (*HUGS*) for all!!

hmm; think i've seen the name, Miyavi_fan, but doesn't mean much to me.....no clue about them, other than what you've just told me! :-P

hey; i don't have any scalpels, Miyavi_fan.....i'm not a surgeon!!! :-/

and.....i didn't ask for any as 'souvenirs', either! :-P

12:11 pm

LOL Mikey, it's probably better for you, mental-healthwise, if you keep it that way XD the bare minimum of knowledge about Dir en Grey is more than the normal person needs... *BIG hugs* later Woulf!

12:12 pm

Oh dear...I've just got the unfortunate mental image of a mad Mikey running amok around Berlin with scalpels... forgive my overactive imagination O.O;;

12:13 pm

si 7/28?

12:14 pm

to 6/18? I've got 6 left to go, but I'm struggling with all of them :s

12:15 pm

to6/18 = more stylish

oh; but i'm not 'mad', Miyavi_fan! :-/ not at all!!! and i want as far away from any more scalpels as i can get, thank you very much! :-/

12:15 pm

si 7= si + vowel +ni4/4

12:16 pm

thanks! got the s's done!

12:17 pm

LOL!!! Well, I'm interested now...tell me the whole, gooory story XD *sits down on a cushion and looks up expectantly* time for the Miyavi fan's bedtime story XD

ach; well really, i wasn't about to do that, Miyavi_fan :-/

12:19 pm

ooh :/ sorry! *remembers her manners*

but, if you really want to know all about it, look up 'mitral valve repair surgery' in a web search.....i'm sure you'll find loads of info about it :-P

12:21 pm

ah...sounds a little scary, but away I go ^^

12:21 pm

to 6/18, anyone? please?

12:22 pm

to6/18 - more like PM Blair

12:22 pm

Im goimg now have a nice evening all .Catch you tomorrow ...bye

12:22 pm

=O my Gosh...I hope you're feeling all better now!

12:22 pm

bye caitlyn

12:23 pm

that's a brilliant clue , Vicuna, thanks!

12:23 pm

ylleria - add a third vowel to your to 5/10 ending

12:24 pm

So does that mean you're done now, ylleria?

well, ja; getting there, Miyavi_fan.....not too bad at all anymore, as long as i don't overdo things, as i've had a tendency to lately :-P

12:25 pm

just the two ne 6's and 3 re's to go. any clues for the ne's would be appreciated?

12:25 pm

ne6's differ only in their final letter. The first is a water sprite.

12:26 pm

O.O;;; stay home and REST, RIGHT NOW! ... otherwise you'll have ME to answer to...:)

12:29 pm

Hmm, the only name for a water sprite I know is naiad. :s

ja, Miyavi_fan; that's what i am doing.....but i can't stay home *all* the time.....i do get out and about here and there.....not an 'invalid', you know! ;-)

12:32 pm

*nodnod* of course...but...get better ^^

12:33 pm

hi all! taking a short break from outside chores so grant has a chance to babble...

i *am*, Miyavi_fan.....i'm working on that daily, really i am! :-P

12:35 pm

ne6 - start with a misspelling of opp of far, then add opp of ego (or abbreviation for drivers lisence)

hi there again, stidmama! :-) i'm in the 'ni' section now.....working away on it here! :-P

12:36 pm

Thanks Vicuna. That's not a word I've ever come across.

12:36 pm

lol... try harder XD

12:36 pm

hi all! hows the puzzle?

12:37 pm

You're welcome, ylleria. Did you get the second? Diff last letter, but you have to build the whole word in the other direction.

12:37 pm

I am having a problem with the last re6/18...the last re of all, can someone put me out of my misery? please?

12:37 pm

okay, 3 left and they're all r's....

12:38 pm

I haven't yet got far enough to help on r's. Sorry, everyone!

12:38 pm

Done!

12:38 pm

YAY rycaut!

12:39 pm

Wooo...and on the note of scalpels etc, it's dindins time for me :) later all!

12:39 pm

Hooray, rycaut!

12:39 pm

hi grant! was just getting the list from Lickety's page so didn't see you come in. The grid's not too bad today. Ten words again, more if you feel like it, and that will be a good number.

'try harder', Miyavi_fan? can't really do much better than i am, i don't think? :-/

although on this darned puzzle/grid thing, probably could :-P if i was as 'brainy' as half the people here, at least :-/

12:41 pm

I have twelve mom!

12:43 pm

exwren - re + ti4/4 - think fork

12:45 pm

twelve already? do you want to play some more, or go help me weed for a while?

12:47 pm

babble

12:47 pm

Many thanks dl88, I just couldn't see it. Are you new to the club? If you are you will be an asset!

12:48 pm

1:31 pm

hi karys! glass of birthday champers? : )

1:31 pm

In this country you have to be 21 to buy alcohol. They ask to see picture ID at the checkout. I turned 37 today so it really amused me that I got asked for ID.

1:31 pm

Back again for another go before American Idol, God I have such bad taste in TV. Happy Birthday MM

1:32 pm

Wow I was scared of the di words because there were so many but they went down easy. Maybe it is the champers

It's only been in the last year or so that I haven't been carded every time. If the kids are with me, I never get carded

1:33 pm

jeffer...fe6...plural of fe5

1:34 pm

jeffer - one re relates to a bell sounds, the other changes color

1:34 pm

fe5/16 - a non-church-holiday, but I think there's a hair dye with that brand name

1:34 pm

OMG ---- Vicuna - that is what I use on my hair. I didn't try it because I thought it was a brand name.

1:35 pm

(actually, a church non-holiday)

1:35 pm

1:50 pm

hint on ne6/21?

1:50 pm

TY

1:50 pm

someone is making me an action verb? Cool.... I've never had that experience ...... *wiggles back in chair and waits for transformation to occur*

1:50 pm

would have replied in knid could I have thought quickly enough mab !!

1:50 pm

Evanonut - no you don't because then your addiction could get you in trouble at work, the temptation just to do a couple of words is overwhelming

1:51 pm

How exciting! I do wish I could pop down there and meet you!

1:51 pm

snowy!!! *hands snowy large glass of chilled champers without having to ask* ; )

1:51 pm

watch that chair mama! they weren't made for bears to wiggle in!

jbp = I heard earlier that it is a kind of sea nymph

1:51 pm

maybe that was my problem too lola.....second son's birthday 5th...Happy Birthday in advance to someone special in Lola's life !!

1:51 pm

Careful, MamaBear! Once you become an action verb, it's only time before you go past tense! I prefer to remain a safe and solid noun.

1:51 pm

hi again all

1:52 pm

actually katie, i want it because it would be a very useful tool for work.

1:52 pm

Off to the garden ( also known as, the weed bed ) See you all over the weekend.

Oh I forgot! Happy Birthday musicmom!!!!!!!!!!!

2:25 pm

chic.....put third vowel and second vowel on the end

2:26 pm

hi snowy :)

2:26 pm

Happy Birthday MM - are you an outdated institution that is nothing but a bind on the taxpayer like others who share your birthday?

2:27 pm

Vicuna I did get the NI 7, now for the go 7, I am unable to lengthen the 4/9, but will keep typing.

2:27 pm

Hi Karys! Saw you post re all your sewing. You're obviously not a last minute panicker like me. Bought the shoes for my own wedding the day before!

2:27 pm

not a royalist then I take it chef ?

2:28 pm

I must not have the right ni 5/10. It's ok I'll figure it out when I get home..Thanx..

2:28 pm

it was just the shoes snowy...they were a 'got to have' !!

2:28 pm

inge, turn the go4/9 into an adj, then make that adj comparative. Bozo the clown is go7 than Mr Normal.

2:29 pm

hello everyone!!

2:29 pm

Karys - Im sure shes a wonderful person and all that, but her family are quite obviously half-mad, and I must have been drunk on the day that I signed the contract for the government to take a massive percentage of my wages to fund her private air travel to a country we were at war with half a decade ago.

2:29 pm

Now I got the go 7 also. I somehow got lost in the previous 50 chat log and couldn get bakc to you all...till I refreshed. Thansk for the clues.

2:29 pm

Hi boreetos!

2:29 pm

2:30 pm

2:30 pm

2:31 pm

2:31 pm

2:48 pm

Hello, dear Toes!

2:48 pm

chic -especially wrong if you do it AND it is documented in a log somewhere, cause then it is pre-meditated

2:49 pm

hi Toes... MAMABEAR is dishing out tongue twisters... and chic is contemplating homicide... everything normal, in fact... :)

((( all ))) Sherb, I really like your icon :)

2:49 pm

TMJ is a jaw thing.... where you have pain in moving your jaw I think.

2:49 pm

TMJ- Teanut Mutter and Jelly.

dear gup 767 today how about you

2:50 pm

Hey TSM! yes I know what TMJ is. Do you have it?

2:50 pm

2:50 pm

2:50 pm

oh; i'd *so* get arrested in Utah, then :-P

Temporo-Mandibular Joint

2:52 pm

Mikey - why? Do you do a lot of jaywalking? LOL

2:52 pm

Dachef - careful, I think you can only do that to your computer in Utah.

2:52 pm

chic - that's too passive-aggressive... you need to be more explicit...

2:52 pm

oral sex is illegal in Utah? Wha???

2:53 pm

4:14 pm

lol. How is Joe?

That was from a photo shoot a while back but I told capone that I like to nibble kitten ears because they are so soft just to get him to laugh and then he made that to make fun of me....

4:14 pm

very pretty Toes.... but we should not gnaw on our kitty, mini me!

Joe is... ok... better since we saw eachother over Easter weekend

hey, MAMABEAR; but i'm a 'kitty' too, remember? :-/

Mikey needs ear nibbling too huh? *naughty grin* Rawr! ROFL!

4:16 pm

mama - thanks.... i never liked any pictures of myself.

4:17 pm

Sorry mama, was off IM'ing with 3 folks at once what ever time you say I'll be there. I just need to know so I canfix things before hand, if you know what I mean..

4:17 pm

It's nice to know that beautiful girls feel that way too... the not liking pictures of themselves thing. :o)

* hugs holly * thank you. Yes was nice. I was given a stuffed spider with rabbit ears on.... I screamed pretty good when I saw it... Spiders = icky

I think everyone picks out the worst things in pictures of them selves. If you notice, the picture you like the most is often tiems not the one others like the most

4:18 pm

Hi Holly bug! Are you a native Hoosier? I was born and raised in Greensburg

4:19 pm

I've just been to sign up for MSN but don't know how it works. Do I just give you my email address for contact or what ?:(

40 mins left....

4:19 pm

Awww. hehe. What a good boy. and... OMG. I'm a restless sleeper... and last night... I woke up in the middle of the night and like... straightened the bed... and the movement of the air made a dust bunny fly off the ceiling fan... and it like... "crawled" across my back... I nearly died of fright. I thought a spider was on me.

no idea how msn works either... sorry hun...

4:20 pm

I'm a new hoosier. lol. I've been here for four years. Though Joe is considering a job in chicago... so we may move... I don't know yet.

katieW; what don't you understand about msn.....maybe i can help?

ROFL Oh Holly! Poor dear! lol... sorry it shouldn't be that funny... but I know I would have doen the same thing!

4:21 pm

Thanks TSM it's nice to know it's not just me. I had to tackle my first spider on my own the other day (I know 38 is old to have this experience) I considered escorting it out in the correct manner, but ended up beating it to death with heat :)

Katie; if you have msn messenger and are signed in on there, you can add me on there, by my yahoo address: mikeyinberlin@yahoo.de

4:21 pm

Good to hear, Holly! Both cities are nice. You'd be moving closer to TSM...

4:21 pm

Once my heart stopped pounding... it was very very funny... but it was terrible! lol.

4:22 pm

you do look like her but you look much prettier :)

4:22 pm

He works for Eli Lilly now... but there's a job at Siemens... which would be more money... But it's kinda a bad time to pack up... in fact... I would probably have to stay behind for a few months because of school.

4:23 pm

Yuck, Holly. That wouldn't be fun.

4:23 pm

previous post for TSM

lol, ToeSockMonkey; no, i didn't say i needed any ear nibbling.....but if i do, that's Heinrich's department! ;-) hey, wow; 2 of you just added me on MSN messenger! :-D

4:23 pm

katie...I have msn

*cheers for katie* That-a-girl! I saw one on the wall the other night just as I was about to lay down in bed. I couldn't bring myself to get close enough to kill it so I strayed air freshener on it and as it fell I ran out of the room and slammed the door.... I slept on the couch that night.... Found the spider in a ball the next day. He was died...

4:24 pm

Back to scoop up the last few words on this Gothic / Musicmom birthday (Happy happy again if she's around!) Following the chat ... TSM you are beautiful, even in the silly photo Capone doctored. Okay, clue please for the in5/16? THanks!

Anyone here speak Dutch? It seems Babble has been ripped off: http://www.playbabble.dk/Spil/ I know "balker" is from Denmark, but he's not on the site at the moment.

4:31 pm

Hello Snowy!

4:31 pm

hi snowyowl!

4:32 pm

Dr G - sprite is Dutch...

4:32 pm

omigosh (suddenly feeling guilty because Dr. God walked in the room) It's our Creator... okay guys, look busy!

4:33 pm

You're kidding Dr_God. Is that legal?

4:33 pm

Hi TSM - its a British monastery but I don't know where!

4:34 pm

Legal? Probably not. Is there anything I can do? Probably not. :(

OMG! Dr_God.... is that legal? That isn't right.... even in another language.... not cool

4:34 pm

in5/14 bar of gold

4:34 pm

just looked at the site, Dr G, but it's all Dutch to me... (sorry, I know this is not a laughing matter...)

4:34 pm

That is SO wrong. It makes me mad!

4:34 pm

thanks, pthomp -- got it earlier, but thanks anyway :)

Dr_God - YES! You can! If they are making money off if you can for sure!

4:35 pm

Gosh Dr_God can you do anything about that legally -doesn't seem right somehow -The cheek of some people!

4:35 pm

some guy called Thomas Dippel...

snowy - love it mm - me too! *growls*

4:36 pm

Makes me want to go over there and kick some babble booty

4:37 pm

Anyway it won't be HERE & we won't be playing so how can it be playbabble? It could only be a poor replica. I wopuld look for some legal advice tho'

4:37 pm

Yep. Thomas Dippel is the culprit. Here he is (I think): http://www.asp.dk/com munity.asp?mode=show_userinfo& user_id=604

the worst part is that it's nearly 100% the same

4:37 pm

hello again, is the silliness prevailing?

4:37 pm

and maybe some typing lessons! LOL

4:37 pm

I don't know.... maybe we could direct all the trolls to that site.

4:37 pm

http://www.imada.sdu.dk/BDB/st udent.php?login=dippel04

4:38 pm

4:40 pm

Well, if anyone sees sprite, let her know I'm looking for a translator. ;)

4:40 pm

thanks anyway Katie - cdn to6/18 is the ink you use in a printer to*** and add an i

Dr_God - I am sorry hun.... I think you should see what you can do about it. After all, it's YOUR game.

4:40 pm

Will do Dr._God

4:41 pm

Hows Fuggles Katie - give him a hug from me - see you soon

4:42 pm

Dr. God - there is a translator link in Google... would that help? or try www.freetranslation. com

4:42 pm

Dr. G there IS something you can do. Report this schlub to his provider. They should remove him asap for stealing your game.

4:42 pm

wow, I just read through the log. that sucks. sorry Dr G.

4:42 pm

Altavista's translator does absolutely nothing.

4:42 pm

there's also the babblefish on altavista.

4:42 pm

oh nevermind.

4:43 pm

I took a look at the Danish version. Cant imagine it getting any players except Danes, and there are very few of them...compared to English speakers. dr. God Could you copywrite the English version at least?

4:43 pm

We've had members of the lampworking community have their bead pictures stolen off their websites and used in catalogs from China to India and places in between. The gist of all the conversations has been REPORT THE THEFT to whoever is providing web space to these clowns and the sites will be removed.

4:43 pm

5:03 pm

plural! past tense is what i meant. duh.

5:04 pm

Hi cybernan!!!!! Long live your icon!!!!!

5:04 pm

boy am i glad you straightened that outHurshy. I was wondering how a d made a plural

5:04 pm

dr 7?

5:04 pm

Hi Mamabear

5:05 pm

dr 7: the act of doing dr 5

5:06 pm

ty inge

5:06 pm

Mamabear, she will outlive us all.

5:07 pm

given her mother's longevity -- I would think Wills will have a long wait for his turn!

5:08 pm

sort of like his great uncle (?) Edward???

5:08 pm

doesn't it depend more on when chuck pops off? (he should abdicate in favor of the better (looking) man)

5:09 pm

I am loosing track of the British genealogy. Which Edward was in the sidelines before WWI? He made the Homburg hat famous, youknow

5:10 pm

well yeah, inge.... look at the life she lives!!!!! Like royalty, for crying out loud!!! LOL

5:11 pm

that would have been Edward 7th inge. Edward 8th abdicated in the late 1930s

5:13 pm

A little bias, there, Hurshy?

5:14 pm

Is Elizabeth the Queen Mum now that her mom is gone?

5:14 pm

Well, hurshy, all I know is that there was a time when some people thought the queen would step aside so Charles could be king. I think, though, that she has no intention of handing over the sceptor in the forseeable future. Perhaps when the time comes, Charles will be too elderly himself and will let the throne go to whichever of those two young men is the eldest.

5:16 pm

nah, she's too ashamed of charles to abdicate and let him be king. he hasn't upheld the family dignity well. she ain't going anywhere until she takes a permanent vacation.

5:16 pm

Elizabeth will be queen mum when she leaves the throne.

5:16 pm

william is eldest (and cutest!)

5:17 pm

why does talking about british royalty make me want to talk as american as i possibly can? i hardly ever say "ain't"

5:17 pm

If that is the case the next person who could possibly be Queen Mum will be Williams wife --- Camilla will never have the title of Queen.

5:18 pm

Yes, I think that Charles failed his mum - he wavered (a lot) from his duty. Or maybe he brought the royals into the 20th century, if not the 21st, I don't know.

5:19 pm

william is dating someone - lucky lucky gal

5:20 pm

Thought the rags had him eloping?!! --- or eloped already?

5:20 pm

Hurshy I wouldn't say that with our press, I pity her

5:20 pm

All I remember from history lesson is taht Edward 7th was a longterm playboy because his MUM wasn't giving up the trhone. So he ended up in Bab Homburg, the spa of all the royal cousins, and bought himself a hat, that became known was the Homburg. My dad was director of that hat factory.

5:20 pm

Eloped! Oh-oh.

5:21 pm

well, yes, there is the whole publicity thing. :(

5:21 pm

He's just joined the army, training to be an officer. I'll let you know if the eloping news breaks here :)

5:22 pm

That's so interesting, Inge. I was wondering the other day if the Homburg would ever make a comeback (other than with certain sects of Orthodox Jews). I think hairstyles will have to change first.

5:22 pm

thanx Mab for answering my question.

5:22 pm

The British press do seem to build people up just so they can knock them down, you end up just feeling sorry for them, we are particularly bad with sporting people

5:23 pm

Well, cherrio, chaps!!!! I'm FINALLY leaving work... what a long day!!! Chic - I'll buzz ya, ok?

5:23 pm

our press does the same thing

5:24 pm

ok Mama!

5:24 pm

bye MAMA

5:24 pm

Bye MamaBear.

5:24 pm

*mamabear exits log doing the "princess parade wave"* ta ta!

5:24 pm

I feel really sorry for them when they have a talent that makes them stand out and they want to use and they end up in that sort of limelight.

5:25 pm

Well, it was John F. Kennedy who stopped wearing a hat to any ceremony, so the Homburg hat fell by the wayside. Was it JFK's hairdo, that mad e him stop wearing hats?

5:26 pm

The Kennedys are a hirsute lot.

5:27 pm

Does that mean, we have to wait for a baldy to be elected before the Homburg comes back? No chance with Hillary then.

5:27 pm

JFK did have a lot of hair, but really, I think he just didn't care for wearing hats.

5:28 pm

yea, it is hard to keep a hat on when you are out sailing all the time.

5:29 pm

Well I wouldn't want to be a royal - I know they live lives of great luxury, but it is a very public life now. I think our present Queen is the most concientious of them all. She just brought up 4 spoiled children. She was brought up thinking duty was the most important thing of all and she has served us well -I'm dreing the next lot tho'. Thing is if we got rid of the Royal Family some one would want to be top dog & what would we end up with then? Look at this Cherie Blair thing now - we would be scrutinising every move whoever it was made. Can't bear Cherie personally - but wouldn't want to be her either

5:30 pm

The Kennedys also have very large heads. Have you looked at Teddy's head lately? He could float that thing in a parade. (but I still love him)

5:30 pm

Hello! I'm going out tonight so I have to try to get all the words asap....

5:31 pm

Well, I have to fix supper and then watch Wheel of Fortune. Will be back after 7 pm. to give clues, if anyone stillneeds them. Cheerio.

5:31 pm

hi harpjane -I will be of little use as when I've not been chatting,I've been reading the log!

5:32 pm

bye inge

5:32 pm

Snowyowl - how does someone manage to spend that much money on hair?

5:32 pm

Bye inge :)

5:32 pm

All ye newcomers. Read the log, if you can, Dr. God has been plagiarized in Denmakr. Later.

5:34 pm

inge-what time of day is this discussed in the log? (i'm on a schedule here!)

5:34 pm

A British friend of mine wonders what will become of the concept of 'duty' when the queen's generation is gone. His mother, although she does not need to do so, still saves little bits of string, etc., and is involved in many voluntary activities.

5:34 pm

I cannot possibly imagine!!! LOL I have mine done at home for £5! The more I see of that woman the less I like her! Am hopeless with politics but she really gets to me and she really looks like Cruella De Ville if you look close!

5:34 pm

Hi/bye all you gals, chicks, dames, broads, women, girls, babes, female persons, and also any dudes who might be about. I'll try to be back later for late night festivities ..

5:35 pm

LOL Thats right torgone -cover all bases -BYE!!!!!!!!

5:35 pm

I know what you mean. I'm not even having a pop because she did spend that much I just wondered how it was physically possible

5:36 pm

We'll consider ourselves pencilled in, torgone.

5:37 pm

ti 8?

lol, Mab; if you're still here, i've just noticed your comment, 'The Kennedys are a hirsute lot.' hmm; anything 'wrong' with being hirsute? sorry; but i *had* to ask :-P

5:39 pm

Just a quick greeting -- I am just getting ready to leave work -- hopefully I will get back to the grid later, I have 66 more to go -- I think I am to the r's. Be safe!!

5:39 pm

No, not at all Mikey. Don't become self-conscious, now. We were discussing hats. Also some Irish people have big Irish heads. This would have an impact on hat wearing I would think.

lol, ok Mab; i'm not exactly self-conscious, not to worry.....but was rather curious, that's all? ;-)

5:40 pm

I agree mab - a modrn monarchy is a difficult thing & I think Charles would have made a good king if they had kept a firmer grip on him. He is basicly a very old fashioned man & I think he understands the 'duty' concept but his personal life has always been a mess. He should never have married Diana & when he did he should never have carried on with Camilla.

5:40 pm

I think you're feeling defensive about this hair thing, that's what I think.

5:41 pm

please--- ti 8?

hmm, Mab? :-/ how on earth have you arrived at the conclusion that i'm feeling 'defensive'? :-( wow; just trying to be humourous.....oh well; think i'll just focus on the grid, and try to finish before bed, then :-/

5:43 pm

Nan~ TI 5/14 + your ocular organ

5:44 pm

ty mary

5:45 pm

Yes, in a modern sensibility it seems like the royals should earn their keep by setting a good example, as has the queen (except for those wretched nipping corgis). Charles did marry stupidly, and Dianna arguably didn't help matters. I'm glad he's at least happy now.

5:46 pm

You are Mikey.

5:46 pm

Anytime, Nan! BTW, Mikey, many of us think hairy men are FABULOUS!

5:47 pm

My man is VERY hairy - a nuisance in the shower but very warm in the winter.

could i have some clues for the qu words?

please (:

5:48 pm

Nothin' wrong with hair.

5:49 pm

one qu word means to give up or leave -the other is a game.

5:49 pm

qu4 -- stop.

5:49 pm

ge 5?

5:57 pm

hi, i just bought the upgrade. can someone please tell me how you know which two letters a word starts with and their length/point value- mine just shows total words and there doesn't appear to be any links within- thanks!

5:59 pm

BryanC on the left of this page is the heading Friends of Babble at the end of that list is Angelsongs Babble Page. everything you need to know about Babble is there. Welcome tot he madness of babble & be warned - It is addictive!

6:00 pm

Welcome Brian. Look at Angelsong's Babble Page, link at the right -- it has lots of info (including how to create an icon) and a list of the first two letters of each word in the grid. Just ask if you need anything else.

6:00 pm

OOOPS Right hand side SORRY!!!!!!!!!

6:01 pm

Sorry Bryan, for mispelling your name. Again, welcome to the funhouse.

6:01 pm

Awesome- thank you guys so much. I expect to be on here a lot, time permitting. I hate my friend for showing me this site! LOL

6:02 pm

Snowy, do you have left and right painted on you wellies?

6:02 pm

Aw, you're going to love it, Bry.

Woot! I got a profile going! lol I am a dork :)

6:02 pm

Hmm. Gothic theme, eh? Well, gothic stuff usually creeps me out, but I managed to find a rather timid looking gargoyle for the occasion.

hmm? i am what, Mab? sheesh; you're surely not trying to tell me i'm being something i know darned well i'm not, and wasn't even thinking or feeling? if so, my goodness; how highly presumptuous.....wow; ok....i think it's rather sad when one can't tease in a friendly, good humoured manner without this reaction, really? but by all means; think what you want, if that 'works' for you.....makes no odds to me, really :-/ *shrugs*

6:03 pm

I always get them wrong but so does my Mum so we are great in the car together, at least we know exactly where we are going :)

6:03 pm

Ex Wren, I need half my body painted!

6:03 pm

No problem mab- yes I've been playing for about a month now, sans upgrade. Looking forward to it & chatting more in the future~ Bry

6:04 pm

LOL EX WREN I'm normally really good at right & left! CATHB used to have terrible trouble when she was learning to drive. My excuse is having had the 5 littlies today!

6:04 pm

hey tsm! good to see you! and i like your profile, it is so the anti dork profile.

Lookie! This is the profile i mean lol http://profiles.yahoo.com/ hannahkramer315

6:07 pm

Mikey! I'm so sorry! I was just teasing, which I admit I do much too much. It's difficult to convey one's intent on the net, but honestly, didn't mean to annoy you.

(((((((((((((((((((( ALL )))))))))))))))))))))))

6:09 pm

the first di5/12? I have the one where you get a cup of coffee.

6:10 pm

now now tsm, it's almost exactly like your babble profile which, if you refer to my former statement, ...is sooooo not dork.

6:11 pm

Hey! No more girly cyber slap fighting! There are more important things to do... like giving me a clue for the Sy7.

6:11 pm

mikey, being teased by mab is like getting a big loving hug!

hmm; ok, Mab.....as all you said to me was 'You are Mikey.' with no indication it wasn't serious, such as the winking text emote i used earlier, i really didn't know how else to take that; especially with you using a full stop after it, it seemed to be a statement? sorry if i misinterpreted, but that is what it looked like :-/

6:11 pm

Yeh I finished, sleep is calling. See you all tomorrow. Thanks for your help with MSN & the chat Mikey.

hey, Judi; nobody's 'slap fighting' or otherwise 'fighting' on here.....i'm not a fighter.....i'm far too soft and sensitive for that! :-/

aw; you're *very* welcome, Katie!!! :-) see you tomorrow!

evan - oh thank you... Yeah its a lot like the babble one. Didnt want to retype it all when it would have been the same only in another order anyway

6:13 pm

sy + vowel + ni 4/4

6:13 pm

night katie -sweet dreams

6:14 pm

Thank you, Katie.

6:15 pm

Hi Judi -I know just how that gargoyle feels LOL!

6:15 pm

wait, wait, i thought queen mum referred to the mother of the reigning person? so that would have been elizabeth's mother, eliz being the actual queen? am i just wrong? but there have been other royals heartily disliked besides camilla (i like her fine), i think she will be queen one day, but not queen mum because she isn't the mother of anyone actually ascending the throne.

7:53 pm

funny, one of hubbynuts sideeffects is restlessness, so we planted a flowering pear, flowering cherry, and some greenish shrubs.

7:54 pm

we also bought four posts to start construction of my pergola.

7:55 pm

Hello everyone...

fi 5/20 a redhead's temper

8:00 pm

boggle player, which was just cancelled. Happened upon Babble, and it looks fun.

8:00 pm

stunny, i recommend exploring the links to the right (angelsong's page, babbler's anonymous) they were helpful to me when i started.

8:00 pm

I now have 1% of the words...

8:00 pm

TY Cliffopa....can't quite figure out the code yet though.

8:00 pm

ty blueskies. got it!

sorry for the stereotype ~grins sheepishly~

stuck on the in/5 i have the one that is a bar

8:01 pm

So far have 93 words, long way to go

8:01 pm

stunny - try likety's babble clues link too.

anyone have ti 9/78?

stunny....go to angelsongs page and click on the link to lickety's thing...you can even print it off so it's beside you until you start to get the hang of it (dear lord knows it's helping me!!)

8:02 pm

matkins - the other one has a similar meaning to imply

8:03 pm

ti 9/78 = start with ti 5/14 for african cat then add what it sees with

8:03 pm

TY Blueskies

cheers ti/9 is a type of gemstone, plural

8:03 pm

stunny- boggle is never cancelled at weboggle.shackworks.com

8:04 pm

BAM! all finished and doing the happy dance once again.

8:04 pm

I've decided that I needed to give myself a little challenge, so I decided to start working on the puzzle with only three+ hours to go...

8:05 pm

douglas, you shouldn't have any problem today. this one is manageable.

8:05 pm

tyvm silent! I'm so hooked on that game

8:08 pm

Howdy Cliff! You need any help?

8:09 pm

8:10 pm

8:10 pm

8:10 pm

8:10 pm

I'm up to 10%...Woot!

8:11 pm

come on ask more, I am here and ready to confuse and bemuse!

re5/16 down to my last dozen

8:12 pm

i have the ae 4/6, but need the 4/4

8:13 pm

Matkins...the RE plays on the first one. It ends with the sometimes vowel.

8:13 pm

the other ae is diff. spelling of long long time, at least two eras....

8:13 pm

I think that there is a movie out right now with that in the title. AE (not off but) **

8:14 pm

Yeah for Inge. She was a lifesaver for me earlier!

8:14 pm

Also the first name of a comic book and movie character

8:14 pm

thanks - got that ae quickly (its always in crossword puzzles)

8:15 pm

how about the first fa 5/20?

thanks, i managed to get one re5/16 from that, just got to find another

8:16 pm

the little magical critter but spelled with the second vowel instead of the third one. At least the first time you use the word.

8:17 pm

ywis wasn't in this puzzle, but it's been in previous puzzles...

8:17 pm

Mat -- to re color something

8:17 pm

an Irish spelling of the good witch, cf. the other fa 5/20; one of our players from Midland, MI has a nommer beginning liek that

8:17 pm

bbnaz, you are giving perfect clues tonite :)

8:19 pm

Ok, monkey typing time!

8:19 pm

ty Cliff. I am trying to take notes from the stars like you and Hurshy and Inge and a plethora of others who help me.

8:19 pm

watcha looking for Douglas?

8:20 pm

Words starting with y...

cheers, got there in the end

8:20 pm

the last one is a creature that flies in the sky but instead of the typical spelling it starts with a "y"

8:21 pm

the next to the last one is the sound a kitten makes but spelled with a "Y" instead of an "m"

8:21 pm

there is an evergreen tree plural ye 4

8:21 pm

the first one is the green area behind your house but with the third vowel inserted between the second and third letters

8:22 pm

I got the trees, thanks, but the one about flying in the sky flew right over my head!

8:22 pm

Got it, but what exactly does that word mean, prithee?

8:23 pm

critter that has wings. it is typically called a BI**

8:23 pm

heck i live in Arizona. We don't have anything here that is called that that I know of. <<shrugs shoulders>>

8:24 pm

No meaning at dictionary.com, no results from googling define:****. It's a very well kept secret...

8:24 pm

otay folks...have to go to a dinner pretty quick so fire away with those questions...........

8:24 pm

Well even the dictonary had no definition for that flying object that starts with Y

8:25 pm

i'm struggling with the dr's. only have a 4/7.

8:25 pm

I don't have any dr's yet.

8:26 pm

dr***wood is found on a beach

8:26 pm

cliff-instead of a green thing with bark you have a dr__. Then there is a gerund form of it.

8:26 pm

bottom of the glass is said to hold the dr + object hen lays - last consonant

8:27 pm

A dryad sung over Reepicheep in his little mousey cradle in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C. S. Lewis. I want dryad to be in the grid...

8:27 pm

good ole Webster's says the flying object is a sCotish word for earth

8:27 pm

two of them work off the first word DR + second vowel x2

8:28 pm

ty bbnaz and eva. now have all those!

8:28 pm

Be careful young maidens and value your wine Be wary of young men in their velvet prime Deeply they'll swallow from your finest kegs, And then swiftly begone leaving scrambled eggs!

8:33 pm

bend, do you have the two words just before it? dr4 dr5

8:33 pm

is the 1st di 5/12 related to that bb?

yes

8:34 pm

same first three letters but then it ends with the consonant that follows "m" and the second vowel

8:35 pm

I have 23%...woo-hoo!

8:35 pm

so then you just add three little letters that mean to continue on. wish i could give you the grammatical but it starts with the third vowel

8:35 pm

monkey typing really is not working for me. thanks again bbnaz, you've been very helpful tonite :)

8:35 pm

second answer was to Bend not Cliff what else you looking for Douglas?

8:36 pm

Anyone who wants to can post the month and day of their birth in the Birthday List thread on BA Meet and Greet. I will pick them up from there and include them in the Babble Resource page :)

10:53 pm

bonkler, use your dr4/5 with the double vowel and tack on a suffix.

10:53 pm

BTW - I didn't know the dr4/5 was a word so just go by points and monkeytype.

10:53 pm

dr 7: take the dr 4 that is a large plant and add the gerund end*** to it!

10:54 pm

thank you, that is an odd looking word

ne 6/18 is the same as the previous ne 6, different last consonant
