Morning dear gang :)
Has R7/28 been mentioned yet?
And D7/32
ra 7.28 are people who carry on too much
But people who leave are no Pa7.
pa 7? too deep for me!
A shaky Tr7/32 as well.
Morning all I see the volcano and cheese are back again.
We would miss them if they didn't come up in every other grid.
Thanks Fmitch! That enabled me to enter two words before I even looked at the grid!
LOL sprite. good grid today so far!
It is! Not too many stupidhead words and lots of nice finds.
got the valcano cheese?
Greek goat cheese. I sooooo much want to make sorcerer though.
Duh!!! Oh yeah!!
Re7/32 so sorry....
Good morning all. Just arrived and ready to start.
good evening haz
Hello lynxxx - how is the grid today?
Morning Haz, jump right in, its a good one, well the 1st 126 words have been anyway :)
It does look nice - I've got 14 words so a bit to go to catch up!
Would agree FMitch
How can ja 5/22 be a word if rome isn't?
thanks for that joy - was missing the j5
Because it's a black enamel as well as a country.
Another thing we would never have known, hadn't we started babbling :D
a 8/50
already got the ja5/22 need a clue for the other j?
and the pa7?
I'm disappointed for Mikey's sake that 'jete' isn't there.
Ishult - denim? LOL Haz
The other j is both a girl name and singular blue trousers. There is no Pa7 as far as I know.
Ooops!! That's my Mum's name. GLAD SHE DOSN'T USE A COMPUTER
LOL Ishult! Shame on you ;)
She would be very mo6/21 to think you had forgotten her.
But Ishult's Re7/32 is honest enough to placate her.
I hope so!
I suppose I couldn't fo7 what a mistake I was going to make!!
ooo nice one Ishult, didn't have that one, thanks.
She's your mum, she'll just think you are an Er6/18 youngster and forgive you.
FMitch: don't forget the person doing it then.
woohoo, thanks sprite that both 8's nailed
I still need that A8. Could you give me a clue, please pretty please?
didn't have that er6, thanks sprite
It's a good run a5, a7 and a8. thank ability to change for the 5 and then items you might need for plugs when travelling for the others.
dif sp I think re the a 7&8
Thanks FMitch!
I think I don't even have that A5 yet.
There's an na7/32 ' marked by a condition of stupor' - relates to a type of drug.
I am being so incredibly blind. Could someone find it in his/her heart to give me another clue for that A5 that leads to the bigger ones?
ad5/14 - to change according to circumstances
sprite, start from the 1st a and think about someone who can handle change .. they can ad5/14 to it
omg... please hand me the fish... thanks :)
And to think I was proud I had found the A4 for a door not completely closed. Real proud I was. Guess I just got kicked back into humility, lol.
Don't beat yourself up sprite, as you have often said, we all do it!!! Nice to see instead of the russian royalty we have an indian one for a change.
Babble is very cosmopolitan.
Okay - I've got 100 words and have to go. I'll be back later. Bye all!
found another f7/40, don't know if it's been posted before. Means to preceed/go before.
Bye Haz have a good day.
Let's see... italian vulcano, greek cheese, eastern enamel, indian royalty, tropical bird... I agree wholeheartedly :) Bye Haz!
can anyone tell me when the stats page appears on anonymous..?
sweet - use the link to licketys stats as BJ's list doesn't come out til later in the day.
Thanks for the F7 clue, FMitch, I am still looking, don't have it yet.
oh cheers!! got it.
anyone got a clue for the se7/28?
se 7/28 saw toothed edge
thankyou dalmation, got it.
yw
I am having my super blonde day today. That Se7 has come up before, I am sure of it. Description sounds very familiar. Now only the word itself, lol.
a knife has a s******d edge. -d
I got caught out on that too sprite - the 3rd and 4th letters are the same.
le 5 12 ? help needed please
dont matter, got it
pt of the le4/5 Have you got the le5/10? cos I am missing that one?
pt for Le4/4 :)
pass the fish back sprite :)
Lol, I feel like I am in good company now ;)
da 6.21 ? thnx
(((hugs)))
Someone playing with little metal throwable arrows. There is a plural too.
lyn, if a group of people challenge someone to do something you are the D*****
Or it could be the frequentative of the Da4/5
daaa - I would be a 'dag' 'cause there is 4 da 6,21 and all the ones clued I actually have. I believe it is the 3rd one. sorry.
I'm missing that 3rd one too :(
People that go out?
I have 4. People with nerve The one throwing Da4s the frequentative People that go out.
The frequentative of Da4 starts with the throwing object and ends the same as the slow hardshelled animal.
HaAd to go to a2z for that one, the endling is the water version of the slow hardshelled animal.
thnx sprite! tried and tried again to put the start of tortoise on the end of the throwing object (duh!) but got it in the end
Lol, true. I'll be more precise next time, sry.
LOL sprite, no probs :)
:D
161 words under my belt so it's definately time for me to go. It's been a real fun log this morning, catch up later and happy babbling :)
It was great playing with you, as ever :) Have a nice day!
Thanks for all the da clues.
Good morning everyone. What a nice puzzle. Got through the first 166 vry smoothly. Now it's archeological dig time.
Hi Eva, I agree!
hi Sprite.
ive found 2 words which use the 'j' does anyone know any more?
there are only 2
oh i take that back, just found ja5/22
I have at least 3.
2 for starting letter, 1 in the middle.
sorry-I meant that there are only 2 beginning with j
I have 4-the two begining with j, one beginning with a and another beginning with r.
Nice, I had not found that r yet :) Thnx!
yr wlcm
just found the tropical bird
what tropical bird?
One of the real nice finds, to me anyway.
a very typical one- starts with a p
Pa6.
yes- it tickled me to find it sitting on its perch.
1 p left to find.
There is one Pa5 that only uses letters in the upper left corner. That was the last I found.
I don't understand why dogs with their tongues hanging out of their mouths on a hot day aren't pa_____!
wow it took me a while to catch on to that clue lol
Probably for the same reason people that leave us aren't Pa7.
you've got me stumped with that left corner one Sprite-either I can't see it or i have it and am not recognizing it. Pretty please for more of a clue?
does anyone know todays longest word?
Ad8 and Fo8.
Can anyone give me clues for the first re 7/32 and the re 6/21 that follows?
Pa5/12 A song of joyful praise or exultation. P + very long time alt. spelling.
dalmation-the ones I have are about a church official and then that same official minus a consonant
Phew - got them and am finished!
I don't have all the R's yet, so I do not know which one is first or not.
thanks Sprite! The p's are a thing of the past.
wow-you mean totally finished?!
yw :)
Yes, and actually enjoyed this one!
WTG Dalmatian! You get... ~~~%%%~~~fireworks!!~~ ~%%%~~~
ive only got 55 words. your making me feel inferior lol
Boy and are they ever welcome! Good Babbling to one and all.
i've only got two
jo_jo, NEVER feel inferior. You found 55 (!) words! That's a lot of words, and if you enjoyed finding them, you play the game as it should be played.
I'm missing 1 7. I have: ad7/36 cr7/32 cr7/44 da7 /32 fi7/44 fo7/44 fr7/40 na7/3 2 ra7/28 re7/32 re7/32 se7/28 te7/28 tr7/32 tr7/32
Another Fo7, I think.
jo jo- I often marvel at how some of the others do. Today I'm on a roll for some reason.
do you know how many points in that other fo7?
Fo7/40
i was lol. not managed to complete a puzzle yet, just like lookin for words
I truly believe that is the whole purpose of the game, enjoy looking for words. Nm how many you find, each one is fun. Well, that and enjoying the chat log, I admit ;)
the one I have is about telling the future. I also have the person who does that , which is an fo8. Is there another 7 with the same point count?
You listed a Fo7/44, which I do not have. There was no Fo7/40 in your list.
oooops! It should have been fo7/40. Mea maxima culpa to anyone I may have confused! The corrected list is: ad7/36 cr7/32 cr7/44 da7 /32 fi7/44 fo7/40 fr7/40 na7/3 2 ra7/28 re7/32 re7/32 se7/28 te7/28 tr7/32 tr7/32
still one missing.
FMitch posted this: "found another f7/40, don't know if it's been posted before. Means to preceed/go before." I am not sure if I have that one.
I've been assuming that it's the seeing the future one...but maybe not.
Doesn't seem to fit the word, but who knows, lol.
thanks for the reminder sprite! got it. It wasn't the same one. use the same prefix and then to move swiftlyin the past tense.
sounds like a computer language minus a t.
Ow of course! I think I better hang on to that fish today. Thanks :)
No fish needed-I never would have found it without your nudge.
Good teamwork then, for the same goes for me :)
well a cold but bright day for the moment, so I think with 27 left to find that I'll feed Merp and go for a walk before the rain rolls in again. Been lots of fun playing with you this morning Sprite!
Good evening babblers! stunning grid!!
I enjoyed your company very much too :) Have a nice walk, see you later.
Hey mrP! Jump in, it's a real real great grid indeed.
melon cat to the rescue!! Off for a walk but see you later mrp.
wahoo, 71 words now. how many is there in total?
198 today.
:-S not even half way yet then
Almost halfway, which is pretty good, actually.
there is an aj4/9 if that helps anyone
Yeah, that's a nice one, I was proud of myself for finding it :)
na 5.12 and 6.21 clues pls
Short for the state of stupor Na7 + plural
thnx sprite - and I thought I had all variations covered.
Oh, don't I know that feeling :)
i cant even begin to comprehend how so many words can come from so little letters
jo_jo, this is actually a medium grid. There are grids of 400+, 500+ words!
i really wouldnt have thought it possible. i think im going to call it a day soon
Hope you enjoyed yourself. See you around :)
bye bye x
ssshhh sprite! the last time i heard talk of a 400+ grid, one showed up the next day :)
That's true, cliffopa! *hushes up very quickly*
let's all think of small grids....not too small tho because those under 100 actually seem harder.
I remember a 23 words grid that took me half the day, but that was before the lists and clues time.
before lists and clues? yikes! i can't imagine. i've only been able to do one complete grid without a list.
Mornin all from Kansas! Cool here today but supposed to warm up later this week. Well, time to get started - 6:00 a.m.
The only help we had back then was what other players chose to share. The chatlog was usually not over 30 posts.
i think the chat is one of the greatest resources now. seems like a friendly, helpful bunch.
Yesterday was bread baking day so I made part of the dough into cinnamon rolls. Will have one with my tea for breakfast. Yummy!!
morning rumple - hope your clear of all those tornados i keep hearing about.
rumple, make some room there, we are all coming to share your breakfast :)
Thanx. We missed those, did get some hail though, some towns north of us had baseball size that knocked out all car windows
You are sure welcome Sprite, I have enough for the week, but sure could have a big party. LOL
i can't imagine what people do when the hail is that large. very scary. and please pass the cinnamon rolls :)
Done, and I have to go. Enjoy this wonderful grid and happy hunting to all!
by sprite - have a good day!
********Cinnamon Rolls*********** for Sprite
Groan - unlucky for some - I've just noticed there are 13 re's!!
I have determined that paelt is NOT a word, so would some-one pls help with my last p...PA 5.12. Thnx
Good afternoon, all. What a nice grid. I've only been here 22 mins and I've found 90 words already.
*Meant 98 words.
wish I was as clever as you jacula! Just 58 so far, but now I have to tackle the re's
Oops - that is the first PA 5.12 on licketys list - thanks
Hi, ExWren. I've only got one 're' so far.:-)
Hi Lynx. Not using a list yet. I've got 3 pa5/12's so far but I couldn't say if I have the first.
pa 5/12 -- high praise. Made up of 3 vowels in the middle
Hi Jacula - such self discipline! - there are 5 of them. good luck.
My 3 pa5/12's are 1. Something you peel fruit or potatoes with. 2. Young fishes (esp. salmon) (Think of one of Henry VIII's wives.). 3. Latin 'father'.
Thanks ARB. Jacula see ARB clue for a short cut. Nite all.
'Night, Lynx.
Only the last 4 re's are do again verbs
Thanks,ARB. I shall seek them out!
Found re6 & 7 (holy men).
.. and re7 (sorry).
Good Morning everyone :)
Hello Faerie.:)
Jacula looks like your doing rather well this morning good for you :)
hi how many words today?
{{{Rump}}} I know your here somewhere :) So good morning and good luck with todays grid :)
Faerie - Yes, got 115 words now. If it's my lucky day, I'd better make sure I get a lottery ticket for tonight!
198
LOL yes dear you better.
thanks-hi ho hi ho........
Majmom - did you finish up last night after I left?
got to 99 words =too tired to keep on-hope to do better today-at least i`ll start earlier
majmom-then jump in a go for a swim in the sea of words. looks nice today :)
Hi Faeriekae, off to a good start.Saved a cinnamon roll for you.
{{Rump}} there you are. Oh I love cinnamon rolls *takes cinnamon roll* thanks this will go great with my coffee. Thank you :)
I know that today is National Zipper day but I just couldn't come up with a clever icon. So I'll just be me for today :)
Good thing I covered my flowers last night. We had/have frost on the ground this morning. 33 degrees
Just been away on the 'phone helping my Mum with some quiz questions for her quiz team. I've got my zipper icon now. REFRESH.
OMG thats a zipper for sure LOL
:D. It's the cover of The Rolling Stones' Sticky Fingers album.
Yup - I've got it :)
Me, too, on vinyl.
brb need a zipper.
BRB, I've a couple of bunches of flowers to arrange in a vase.
never mind I can't find one :(
* zips in * hi all!
Morning Evan :)
i'm actually huntng words today!
Me too. Not going to be a shit day huh?
no no no faerie - this is zipper day...and frankly, if we were going to be crass on zipper day, wouldn't we be talking about something else?
yup
like Jacula's icon LOL
good morning.
{{{Music}}} good morning :)
i cant find one either faerie :(
Hey guys - google zippers - I found tons of them.
{{{Shorty}}} glad it wasn't just me. thanks :)
cmon guys, i even found rhinestone zippers!
thanks Music :)
brb going zipper shopping 'again'

ok refresh for the zippers!
Excellent Faerie and Shorty.
Awwww I want shorty's icon :( where did you find it?
thanks Music :)
on google like the 5th page
is this a hard grid?
thanks :)
*touches screen* - feels like a solid grid to me!
LOL nut
I dont suppose anyone has a clue for the third PA5/12, in liceysplits list? This is the last word I need before I head to bed!
Morning everyone... Jacula! Love the icon!
afternoon all
morning angela i almost used that one
Morning angela. Can't help with that clue Uld
afternoon! its morning here silly!
nps musicmom will keep struggling =p
couldn't help it Shorty - it was too sarcastic and funny to resist :)
its 13.30 here in england
glad i'm not living there then, i'd always be older by hours.
LOL nut
good morning (or afternoon or evening) everyone!
Hi ya abe
Music - It paid off me covering my flowers last night. we had frost of the ground this morning.
Hi Abe :)
I'm back. I see zippers abound now.:-)
Hi Jac --- yep we'll have closure on this grid today.
Hi MusicMom. *groans at joke*
LOL Music
mm - now that was 'funny'
sorry - it's early.They will get worse as the day goes on.
Hi Shorty, is that your cockatoo dressed up like my blue & gold macaw? Cute
Well I'm fairly zipping through this grid. I've really got my teeth into it.:D
I wished it was mine but no I found him on google
be careful there might be a catch in the middle.
Today's phantom word for me is 'partner'. How about the rest of you?
secrete is my phantom word. BRB -- laundry calls.
mine is ferret
i want corset:)
LOL. I can 'see' all of those now + 'acres'.
deal
Why isn't someone who arfs an 'arfer'?
i'm adding another, i want factor
I've wondered that for a long time jac
good question
Hey Jac - isn't it nice how we all come together and get in a groove here?
Yes, MusicMom. It is.
trace is my word
and why isnt some one who wears pa**s a pa**er?
Shorty - I wondered that, too, but I was thinking of someone out of breath.
excellent question Shorty
here is a question for the group. abe and i are coworkers so are right next to each other. is anyone else here in the same room with another player?
No not me
Not normally bluephlox but if we get a wireless connection at our cabin next week BGL and I will probably be playing together.
bluephlox - I'm alone today but, sometimes, my partner's on the laptop playing in the same room.
whos that jacula?
that's fun. it's nice having someone doing this in the same room even if you're not doing it together. you can complain about phantom words- which we do often.
Anyone managed to get the third (from licketysplits list) pa5/12. I need a clue. Its my last word! and I have been stuck on it now for 40 minutes.
Mt partner's also been known to nip onto a computer when he gets back to the depot and post on the log asking me why I'm Babbling and not making his dinner! LOL.
because babbling is more fun:)
Shorty - My partner's Paul69 but he doesn't often post on the log.
oh i was gonna say ive never seen him
My pa5/12's so far are: Polynesian wraparound skirt omething you peel fruit or potatoes with. Young fishes (esp. salmon) (Think of one of Henry VIII's wives.). Latin 'father'.
*Something (lost an 's' there).
anyone done with the re words? How may of them are to do some verb again?
ok refresh
There are 13 re words
it is a rhinestone zipper and I want one now.
LOL faerie --- I think every faerie should have a rhinestone zipper.
LOL me too !!! (*^_^*)
MusicMom - I think ARB said earlier that only 4 of the re's are doing again words.
I want craft to be a word.
BRB. Need lunch - my tummy's rumbling.
Thanks Jac. I would hereby like to declare (once again) I hate words that start with re and I believe that we should decree them illegal.
later Jacs
does anyone know how many words is there to find?
I second that Music....
198
Jacula, I have homemade bread with butter and cinnamon rolls and a Highland beef roast with potatoes and carrots in the oven. Sound good?
hmmmmm rump - think i'm coming over -- I'll bring some coffee.
Thanks for the help Jacula. I think that I am missing the "Polynesian wraparound skirt". Now I just have to work out what that is!
OK, around noon
Music I had one the cinnamon rolls earlier I'm have roast for lunch with Rump. Sounds delicious.
I may need to do leftovers for dinner or tomorrow. I drive fast but not that fast. It is at least 12 hours to Kansas from here.
Greetings, fellow Babblers! How goes the grid today?
the cinnamons are to die for (;drool;)
thank you - a good bit to go then...
It's not too bad Jera. Well, except for the dreaded re.
Ugh... re words... ptui!
{{{Jera}}} *sprinkle* *sprinkle* *sprinkle*
{{{Faerie}}} Thanks!
yw :)
*takes a deep breath & dives into the re- list, hopefully to return before too long*
recrap should be a word. It is recrap every time we have to type re words<G> Feeling like a whiner today.
You'll get through the re's Music you always do. Me on the other hand.....not so sure???
let me go first Faerie and then I can zip you through them.
I just finished the c's does that count for anything? LOL
so far what I am seeing is that they are all common babble words and not too difficult. I make it harder when I look for the really strange ones and miss the normal ones.
of course! congrats on the c's!
thans Une - love the icon :)
*Crys*! I finally got it! No wonder I could not work it out. I thought the Polynesian wraparound skirt ended in the letter "U", but it has another spelling! Thanks again for the help Jacula, I can now go get some sleep!
:-D
absolutely - that means you will have clues for me when I get there. I'm trying a new method today. I'm working back ward through the alphabet but without the list first. When I find all the words I can with any one letter then I go to the list.
Uludaas are you finished?
Wonderful Uludaas!!! Does this mean you are finished?
that's my "method" too, MM :-)
I changed my icon because if you eat enough of these you will have to undo your zipper.
Done with the R's (please don't hit me!)!
Yes I am finished! I am improving slowly I can almost get half the words without looking at lickeysplits now.
Rump - I'll have another one please and thank you. Looks soooooooo gooooood.....
BRAVO Uludaas
Huzzah for Uludaas!! My goal is halfway without help... very good!
~~~~~congratulations uludaas~~~~~~ WHOOT!!!!!!!
I am happy to stay for a while and try to provide clues for anyone that needs it
Jera - how dare you tell everyone that. You know how sensitive Music is about those damned re words.
*********FIREWORKS*********** for ULUDAAS
Jera, I find that I can only do it for the lists that have around 150ish words anything more or anything less are usually to obscure for me to get
oops was supose to <beep> out the bad word.
This one is nice... lots of patterns... The good news is you have another hint-giver in me, Faerie!
I think bad words are called for when discussing re words...
Excellent point Jera!!
brb-- Music knows where I'm going :)
<gasp gasp gasp> one more re but I had to come up for air. Jera --- I don't know whether to congratulate you and ignore you................. okay ---- Good Job!!!
LOL Faerie Jera what in the world is the re5/10 between the get up again 6/18 and the cut again 6/21?
Maybe this will help you feel better... I can't find a <beef> pa4/5!! I hate it when the little words elude me!
is it the "look at again"?
Maybe cuz I don't get that hint...
that was for the re5/10 :)
It's either the last pa4/5 or the second to last one... I have the tope of head one
LOL, Unea...
pa 4/5 is also a bald head
Thanks Une. It is but I swear I still don't see how to get there. Oh well. It's in the list now.<G>
I have that one, I need the other one Llysse
MM, i find that it often helps to stand on your head and cross your eyes!
Oh, um--the breathing hard?
Do you have the one that is what you do to an apple?
Yes, that's the second one...
do you have the wife of Henry VIII?
I need either the 4th or 5th one, I have top of head
Or what you do to your hair, or the red sea...?
Ye gods, I'm an idiot, had the plural but not the single! Thanks, Unea!!
There's also what you do to an apple or potato, another word for peel. Sorry I never know which one is being asked for!!! :(
Just watched Helen Mirren in Elizabeth I and have all those courtly women on the brain! :-)
Jac LOL's at Jera because she, of course, has *never* had a plural but missed the singular. *Hopes nose doesn't grow as she types this.*
That ja is dirty pool... proper noun!!!
DONE...anyone need a clue??
Jera - it also means to coat with black enamel.
brb
I lost my coffee cup.
kudos, ouwachita!
Yea, well, spam also means junk mail but it's not allowed...
Huzzah for Ouwa!!
found it.
Bravo Ouw!
Well done Ouwa and anyone else who's finished while I've been off filling my face.
Oh GREAT! Oreo is my new phantom word.
How many total words today?
198 words today.
MusicMom - not so much phantom as not allowed!
Yikes.
Thanks true Jac. I just keep seeing it. UGH!
OUW - congratulations!!!
Just found an Irish county in the a's - it's not allowed though.
sorry got distracted by Cirque du Soleil.
Wow, French is coming in handy today... 2 more words to go!
MusicMom, a friend and I are going to see Delirium next week and we are soooooo excited!!
sticky fingers eh Jac? morning all, this one is not happening this morning for me so will come back later and hammer away.
Whoo-hoo! *happy dance of doneness*
*~*~*CONGRATULATIONS JERA*~*~*
Une I have never seen them live. We had the DVDs in the music library where I worked. They were just on the Today show. It is fascinating to me.
Musicmom, what does your icon say? The answer to the question, I presume?
yeah jera!
Bravo Jera!
Jera - Well done! I'm at 157 found now and still no list. BBNAZ - it's a lovely grid.
gotta take Max for a quick walk I'll be back in and hr or so.
I have 108 --- combo of list and no list.
easy for you to say, i have been staring at it now for a bit over 30 minutes and barely have 20+ words.
I'm so proud of you Jacula! I think I set up the list around 50 left, not sure
BB - have a coffee and try again. It'll soon start falling into place.
My son actually went in to school today so I should get busy doing something useful around the house... but I'd rather hang out here! :>
MM, they are absolutely magical live--this will only be our second show . . . but it's fun to watch them on Bravo
Jera - I'm bound to hit a wall soon. I'll get a list when I do.
Someday Une I'm going to see them live. I love watching them on my little t.v. screen so I know I would love them in person.
brb - laundry time again.
Yeah, finished the R's, now on to the P's. I always work backwards. My daughter & fiance have Rockbanners booth at OZZFEST and get to meet and have lunch with all the bands on tour. Exciting, but sure wears them out.
I do the same thing Rumple... working backwards. Just seems to go faster for some reason.
Well, I am literally falling asleep at teh computer, so i think it's time for a nap. Gwyd wasn't feeling well last night & he just had to sleep with me... I woke up to find him on top of me. The kid must like a lumpy mattress...
It's easy to see the words as they come up. Don't have to keep scrolling down
Back later to chat more... bye! *poof*
Have a good rest, Jera.
Later Jera
177 words. I'm tempted to get a list now but I think I'll go away and do some ironing & gardening then look with fresh eyes later.
Later Jacs :)
It is eerily quite in here.
on the phone brb
brb hungry
Zipper Day! good morning all.
great mind think alike ch1212!
hi ch. Faerie are you here? We are planning a new curriculum and it is taking hours of phone conversations to get it transferred to us.
on the phone Music brb
!! :)
UGH ---- brb
Uh oh, don't mention CdS around TSM
I'm back again. What capone?
Cirque du Soliei, she loves it
AHA!! I see.
Morning, Babble! I've been here for some time. Been working on the grid without lists and I've got only 38 more words to find :)
Done! Off to get ready to welcome my monthly lunch bunch!
HI Angel Bravo Une.
gj uneaixoise
Sucks b/c she came to Florida about 2 weeks too early, CdS was in my area in early April. One day we're gonna see them in Vegas
Not that I wouldn't be a third wheel or anything --- but take me with you.
lol, done! but just remember, what happens in Vegas....
.....stays in Vegas I just realized I said a word in the log a couple hours ago. I don't think anyone noticed.
Medically speaking, that's simply not true, capone.
good afternoon/evening, everyone! :-)
UGH Vic!!!!!!
Hi mikey
hey, I'm all about safety. lol
oops. I'm still a pig. I'd better go change.
hi, musicmom! :-)
I count 253 words. Is that right?
No, schwer, only 198 words today.
If you've found 253 you are pretty amazing!
OK. Thanks. Will recalibrate accordingly!
wow; friendly bunch in here today.....noses must be in the grid, though ;-)
I was just thinking how quiet it was Mikey. How ya doing?
Anything interesting on your side of the world?
Focused on laundry and lesson planning here today.
oh, pretty good thanks, musicmom; nothing 'exciting' really, just been working on our spring cleaning, and running a few errands today :-) how about you?
Greetings, everyone!!!!
Me personally, I don't go to game sites to find verb al companionship, and I don't go to public bathrooms to...nevermind.
well; meaning how are you, of course.....you already told me what you're doing today, musicmom ;-)
Well, four more days and I go on vacation for a week. really looking forward to the hot tub.
greetings, movieman! :-)
Hi movie man.
I'm really quite good. Don't have any errands to run until later this afternoon.
hi movieman! Hi all who have come in lately... Mikey you are correct -- nose in the grid this morning.
lol, schwer; neither do i, but it's nice to chat a bit while doing the grid, nevertheless!
hi, ch1212; love that cute little smiling piggy of yours there! ;-) ja, i figured; i'm working away on it, too!
good to hear, musicmom! :-)
anyone have the cr6 between the 7 and the 5?
Music diffrent spelling for what goes down the front of you jeans legs.
it's the singular of your cr7
If you've got the cr7 you've got the cr6!
faeriekae! really! :)
i think musicmom means the one after the cr7. i don't have it either.
spellit and ch --- I have that there is one after the 7 that wouldn't be the singular.
cr + double 2nd vowel + plural + 2nd vowel
cr6/21 - has the same ending as a dairy foodstuff
ty Faerie --- I knew you finishing those c's before me would come in handy. three f words and I will have zipped this one up. Back to the grid.
Hi haz. thanks
LOL you were right.
spellit- there's a cr7/44 - a farmer (especially the small Scottish variety)
spellit, is that an ocarina in your icon? I have one -- learning to play.
52 to go... hello all
Hi bryan
Hi Bryan :)
Okay I give--- I need the last fo 7 and the 8 TY!
musicmom, I fo***** great things in your future
And I'm the one who se** it
OH DUH --- Double fish for me please. I left out an e. was only making it a 6 instead of a 7
always the easy ones, always ... :)
I am finished!!! I need to switch laundry loads and then I will be back to clue for anyone who needs it.
CONGRATULATONS MUSICMOM!!!!!
yea musicmom!
Hurrah for Musicmom! 'Cause she's the best, she's Musicmom! (you have to know Hurrah for Hollywood for that to make sense)
CONGRATS MUSICMOM!!!!!! *APPLAUSE!!!!A PPLAUSE!!!!!!*
Mikey -- I see your eye has been enlarged lately.. How about the rest of you?
YAY musicmom! hi all!
Hiya, stidmama!!!!!
Morning Stidm :)
Good Day to all! anyone have a clue for the fo 5/18?
I Katieq :)
fo 8/55 someone who can predict the future
fo 5/18 -- a robber would fo*** his way into your home
Katieq - use the F****.....
fo 5/18 = ____ someone to do something (against their will)
oooh, movieman, MUCH better clue than mine -- love it! Speaking of clues ... the pa 5/12 that comes right before what we wear with a shirt?
fo 5/18 strength
any hints for the 2nd pa 6/21? i'm sure i'm overlooking something obvious.
pa 6/21 - Latin for fathers
pa 5/12 great praise -- there are 3 vowels in the middlle of the word
a very colorful bird --- I think rumpelstiltskin has had in her icon
i've got that one, ch. i've also got the plural for what you use to peel food.
pa 6/21 --it's a bird---in Casablanca, Sidney Greenstreet's bar was the Blue P******* thanks for the clues--now of course it's quite obvious
thanks, musicmom! that was pretty obvious--*sigh*
faeriekae -- did your plants make it last night? how's the weather this morning?
Thanks, ARB -- got it
good clue, kateq
no worries bookgrrl. I monkeytyped it and then felt really stupid.
Any cluez for the other j? I have the girl's name......
Stid it was 30 when I got up this morning but and yes there was frost on the ground. I had everything covered so all my flowers are doing fantastic today :) I was worth the work.
thanks for asking :)
i'm sitting at 188 words, and these last ten seem quite impossible today.
The other j is also the name of a far eastern country
j --- far eastern country --- also a way of placing enamel (I think)
j5 = what is the name of a country but also a kind of black metal
Thanx all..... Would have tried that, only I didn't think it accepted proper nouns.....
It's not a proper noun when referring to black enamel
I'm down to 4-- cannot figure out the first fo 7/40 (major F trouble today LOL)
fo 7/40 to predict the future
Kateq - to predict the future......
fo7/40 went through the race before everyone else.
good. I had dreams last night of all my pear blossoms looking like they had been "sugared" and then shattering... not okay.
SOrry the first 7/40 is a compound word pre + operated
where is hurshy today?
Musicmom--TY! I never would have seen that
kateq -- I often forget to look up.
last two tr's anyone?
i am here, just been buried in the grid
more of the last tr4 and then pl
tr 6/21 -- has to do with 3's tr the plural of the 6/21
Oh good --- just wanted to be sure you were okay. Hey I've decided to go wtih your wooden spoon idea! Thanks!
Missing one d..... I have all the variations of the "brave" word, all the variations of the pub game, and all the variations of the romantic meeting......
hurshy! looks like it's a neighborly day in the neighborhood!
i had the chat log closed but bex alerted me that you were asking about me, SMF :)
Shalom Hurshy
bbl - post is here
shalom, ARB, hi stidmama :)
thanks again, musicmom; hadn't tried that because the spelling didn't seem right.
oh, yay on the wooden spoons! :)
great zipper icon Hurshy.
ty, i love mr. rogers :) i wanted to find one in the act of zipping but i couldn't.
movieman, da 6/21 = pub game plus tall skinny letter plue second vowel
Hiya, SCD.....
movieman, the da 6/21 I think you are missing is your pub game with a weird ending -- think if you were to sneak up on someone and st***** them.
hiya, CHS :)
ty, bookgrrl.....
Hurshy - didn't mean to distract you. Was concerned because I didn't see you.
da 6/21 to dash about + suffix syllable like the end of the animal with a shell that makes a great soup
oh no, it's fine SMF :) i just wanted to get down to not many left before risking seeing any clues by accident. i have 25 left now, that's not bad.
Missing an n now... I have the na4/5 and all variations thereof (the na5, 6, 7 & another na5)......
thanks for your concern - is it just general or have i given you something in particular to worry about?
Just general because you are always here when I'm on in the morning. Was missing you!
Nevermind, just found it..... (It was nothing).......LOL.....
movieman, you have squat, you have nothing, you have na** :)
LOL movieman
na 4 spanish for nothing
aw, thanks SMF, that is awfully sweet of you.
*peeks in again*
I have my moments Hurshy. Just don't tell anyone.
hiya everyone!
Mikey -- How big your eye is, said Little Red Ridinghood.....
Hi bex!
*whispers* i think they've noticed already SMF :)
hiya, Bex!!! :-)
Mikey -- how are you?
hiya mikey! hows it going?
hmm, Arb? :-/ i'm not just an eye anymore, though?
Hurrah! Done! Thank you all for your clues--the last ones are always so painful--not least because they are all so obvious in retrospect.
hi, stidmama! :-) it's going just fine thanks, Bex.....how's everything going for/with you?
One of my piano student's mom has the same birthday as me. She bought me a lovely kit for pedicure and manicure but then in the bottom of it there was a little package of gum. The package said 'Cool and calculating gum for the Total B****" I cracked up. She said I was the only person she knew she could buy it for that wouldn't get offended.
found 47!
Bravo Kateq
If you're not just an eye, what are you? Or is that an indiscrete question?
YAY Kateq!
ROFL Music Hi {{Bex}} Hi {{Mikey}}
Congrats Kateq
Well done katieq..... *APPLAUSE!!!!!APP LAUSE!!!!!*
{{faerie}}
bo bex go!
a whole person, Arb? :-P are you still seeing my avatar of my photo cropped to just my left eye, or something? if so i'm surprised, 'cos i changed it back to one with my whole head and shoulders yesterday! :-P
Funny typo stid

oh, hi (((((faeriekae))))).....sorry, didn't see your greeting there at first!!! :-)
Thanks, Everyone-- May I offer any clues before I go?
Out to the opera -- a little culture for the vulture
mo 6/21 pretty please
it's ok, stidmama; i'm sure most of us have been using the internet long enough that we're all very fluent in reading 'typo' by now! ;-)
mo 6/21 very unhappy mo + a word for a flower with a thorn
found the mo 6/21
faeriekae: 'mo6,21' = 'miserable, gloomy', etc
mo6/21 --- I'm mo6 that stid is under the weather today.
mo6 = mo + ro4/4 very sad
Stid -didn't bother me -- it just made me smile. Sounds likes a boflex commercial bo flex GO!
ty everyone :)
i'm mo 6 that i can't get my stupidumb figners to work right!
Missing an 8.... I have the fortune-teller (fo8).....
movieman - ad8 - pl of ad7, a gadget that helps you make 2 other gadgets work together
ad 8 builds off the ad 5, 7 ad 5--to make useful or functional
ty, SCD..... Gotta go, it's time to eat...... Be back soon.....

Mama.. so.... is that a chocolate dress perhaps? heehee
It's really hard to find a bear in a zipper .... had to improvise out of character.....
smaller if you go to Mikeys bio you will see what you left behind...so sad.
Good Day to all! What a wacky crew you are!
Mama ya look fantastic...
Smaller - seems to me you've had enough to eat????????
faieriiekae, i just went there but it's to da** much reading. Is there a Cliff Notes version to his bio?
Hi chic! you look pretty today!
This discussion could go adult any second ..
I gotta go mow my yard. It is 61 degrees out and I need to be outside so I'll see you folks later on provided Smaller doesn't eat everyone.
Hi Deutsch! How's by you?

hi chic!
Thought I was going to go visit a friend today but instead I'm home all day. Yay!

Smaller, hi, need an antacid?
i need a tr 5/12 clue please
awww, I hate to leave, but I need to feed. See you all in a bit!

Mamab, I almost did the same icon; you should tell that that's crystals where the zipper opens...
oh chic, you're an angel! ....and...so...what are you wearing?
*waves to Deutsch*....... so is Mikey really gone??? What did you people do to him??????
It's a piece of 'art' called 'Zippers'...
Hi everyone.. I've been siting here for quite some time looking for words and... is it me or am I seeing too many zipper buddy icons...is there a theme going on? :-)
Torgone - feeling a little jumpy today?
very astute, Karina!
Karina - we are celebrating International Zipper Day
tr5/12 - past tense of tr4
Hiya, Karina.... Yes there is..... There's always a theme every day, and if you check Babbler's profile, you will find out the day's theme....
mama, your chest is making even me jumpy
wow! didn't know zippers had their day..good to know!
Vicuna - which tr 4 is the tr5 the past tense of....
Everything has it's day!!!!!! Movieman - I had your icon then had to go change ..... didn't want to show up in the same zipper... so uncool.
thanks movieman..that explains a lot!
es 5/12 anyone?
CHS - the one you would use to catch a wild animal
the tr4/5 meaning snare. But it is a little tricky because you may need to start from the other t.
es5=company on a date minus the r....
thanks vicuna - got it just before your second part
mama, i forgot where the theme thing is posted. where is that?
ty movieman. is the er 6/18 related to any of the other er's?
Smaller do you have Yahoo IM?
Cliff- er6 is from the mistake family

Hurshy, I did read about it...

chic, woohoo for me! it's like getting christmas presents!
whoooooeeee mama bear, sexy
Thanks to you both. Tr5/12 also a mystery.
tr5/12 is an odd past tense of the previous tr4/5.
clues for tr 5/12 were given within the last half hour
or you could be nice like vi and give it again :)
Yup, I am nice! :)
You have my rapt attention.
grant used a wooord, grant used a woooord
grant just used a word!!!!!!
GRANT! Bite your tongue! I mean your fingers. I mean your keyboard. Oh well, quit saying words!
poor grant......
Should have napt before playing this afternoon
speaking of that word, why can't we have the comparative????
I dunno. Maybe you are or you aren't.
unrapt?
And if you are again, you're rera--
oreo doesn't count ?! ...i think we need a ruling on this one. not so much a simple confection, as it is an institution. ;-)
but it is trademarked :(
help with the j's?
true enough.
evanonut; you missed me being all gobbled up by smaller.....and this is all she left of me, 'cos she didn't want to gag on hairballs :-/ wait; how am i typing, or even thinking, when my head is gone? :-o
beazus - do you recognize my icon?
I don't know, Mikey, but some people without brains do an awful lot of talking...
Nut is here????? NUT?????????? hallo????? Hi Mikey!!!!!!!!!!!
is it from those shoes back in the day ...that being the 70's ?
ah the evil Vi!
with the thoughts i'd be thinkin', i could be another lincoln...
hey everyone - have a split second to play while the lawyer is in mediation - woo hoo!!
vicuna, that is my favoritest movie ever!
Wait, just a minute ago I was being called nice! Ah, fickle reputation!
It's the mascot of Akron U .. I see you are from Ohio, and thought you might be from my old area ..
where the kids made a big 'Z' on the ground with their feet (in the commercial).
ja, well; you just might be right there, Vicuna!!! :-P ja, MAMABEAR; part of me is still here, anyhow :-/
vicuna, do you use AIM perchance?
Hey Angela! Mama, 'nut is folding laudry at the mo...
hey, Angela!!! :-)
hurshy, if I knew what AIM was, perchance I could tell you whether I use it!
Oh ...those Zips - sorry. I'm outside of Columbus ...but I do recognize the mascot now that you've told me.
AOL Instant Messenger. It's a free download - www.aim.com
if you get it, and sign up with the same screen name, i will chat with you :)
I still have 144 left - I may not be able to make a dent until tonight, but I shall try! Did everyone catch Jacula's icon earlier?
I don't remember that commercial, and I'm definitely old enough ..
if you pick a different screen name i will also chat with you but you will have to tell me what it is :)
horrible shoes.
I didn't see Jacula - what did she have?
Why hurshy, that's mighty neighborly of you. I'll let you know when I investigate this new territory!
the cover of the Stones' Sticky Fingers...yoweee!!
excellent, vi :)
though now a valuable collector's (retro) item most likely.
Mikey - your icon looks like the inside of a sandbox
i have the original album and the zipper actually works. neat.
speaking of, did anyone catch the Stones at the Super Bowl? Someone needs to tell those boys to retire....
it's painful. saw The Who a few years ago - before the Ox passed away and they were incredible. But Keith Richards looks like h-e-double hockey sticks.
have to agree with you there mamabear corpses on stage is not my idea of entertainment
Someone needs to remind them that they're dead ..
huh, MAMABEAR??? :-/ why would you say that? it's cropped from one of my actual photos :-P
Wow. Then Mikey needs a shave!! :)
nah, I see sandbox!
huh, Angela? :-/ that's not my face, sheesh.....i no longer have a head, never mind a face or anything else, 'cos smaller ate me earlier!!! :_( *sob*
huh, MAMABEAR? :-/
HAHAHA!! I thought that was another EXTREME close up - sorry! *mea culpa!*
LOL
mama b...you rang earlier
ja, well Angela.....you'd have to read through the log for a couple pages or so to understand what went on.....but smaller ate me.....gobbled me right up; except she left part of me, 'cos she didn't want to get hairballs, apparently :-/ so this is all i am now, i guess? so sad :-(

CLIFFOROPILLIDDYODERA!!!!!!!
cliffopa!!!!! :-) uhm; don't ask.....just.....don't ask :-/ (or read through the log of the last few pages) :-P
trust me, i know better mikey......
hmm, cliffopa? know better than/about what? :-/
Oops. missed a hug .. (((((((Nutty))))))))
good afternoon everyone !
Nut posted a word.......
good evening, helenkeller!
ME!!!!!! - - - which one?
lol mikey - that too :)
i know better than to ask......
Oh, my bad, I could have sworn CLIFFOROPILLIDDYODERA was in the grid.....
hey Helen & Torg!
hi mama ! how's your foot doing? much better, i hope!
hi helen!!!!!
* checks grid * - close, but there are no y's
Helen - I went back to doc on Saturday. the Xrays show bone spurs in both heels. and he gave me a cortisone shot in the left one since that is the worser of the two right now. Seems a bit better - but I have been on it alot.
Hi Angela! Hi Cliffo! Hi Helen!
i want you all to know that i was tempted to use a pic of my husbands 78 staples where he had surgery - really looks like a zipper. but i didn't want to turn any stomachs after all of yesterday's sh** talk.
sorry nut.... false alarm!!!! LOL
many thanks for reconsidering, cliffopa!!!!
aw, man...I missed the sh** talk?? dern.
or should I say "crap"?
We could make it cr4/6 talk ..
sh** talk????? what the sh** !!!!!!!! Da**.........
PUT THOSE FEET UP NOW !!!!! :))) i had a hip x-ray once & the doc showed me a big bone spur on the side of my hip, never knew it was there, sometimes they bother you, sometimes not - glad the shot is giving some relief though
cliffy - i have a similar one of my hubbys staples, they are stomach turners.
ANGELA POSTED A WORD!!!!!!
ooooooooooooooooooooooo!! totally forgot - I just said a word.
hi tor, hi ang, hi nut !
mama, it was the sh**
Bother, I have to go do housework. Oh, the humanity! hurshy, I will chat with you some time, but, alas, not this afternoon. :(
I can't Helen - I am at work....
what did the hubbynut have surgery for?
ok vi - did you successfully download, and is your name on it going to be vicuna?
see ya Vic.
well, mama, take the rest of the day off then - tell them the people at babble gave you permission - i'll write you a note too !
oh, MAMABEAR; sorry to hear you have bone spurs to deal with in both your heels now.....why didn't you tell me this when you emailed, though? :-/ what can be done about them, anything?
which one more like cliff - complete removal of lymph nodes in neck, then a redo on that one. removal of the upper third of his lung. the lung one was like no incinsion hardly at all though.
Yea Mama come home so we can literati all afternoon!
Mamabear - have same spurs - Voltaren is great when area inflamed - prescription tabs
Poor Hubbynut! :(
It's not a big deal, Mikey - didn't even think to mention it...... but thanks for the concern!!! Chic - I wish I could!!!! Want to play tonite? Anyone else?
yikes nut! is he okay?
* perks up at suggestion of literati *
what is literati?
ok, *refresh* everyone.....since it's fairly obvious that smaller didn't really eat/gobble me up anyhow, leaving only part of me behind that i found very difficult to 'speak' with (hehe), i'm back to my face again.....for now! :-P
Oh cr 4/6!!! I forgot - I have choir rehearsal tonite! *mamabear looks up to sky "sorry, Big Guy!*
course he's okay cliff...he's superman!
Can't play to nite :-( but hubby is going out after work so I'm on for Fri nite for sure!
Much better Mikey :)
helen - Literati is a game in Yahoo Games very similar to Scrabble..... WAY fun!!!
you're all playing Literati tonight, when we'll be asleep.....without me??? :-(
helenkeller, Literati is yahoo's version of 'Scrabble', basically :-) lots of fun!!!
i cannot find the last re today, an re 6/21? - i have the first two.
No, hursh, I haven't downloaded yet. I set out to do so and was distracted on the way. Now my parents are to arrive this afternoon and I have to transform my "studio" into a guest room, etc etc. Stuff that is not nearly so satisfying as Babbling/babbling. Yet it must be done...
but you're all going to play without me :-/ unless i stay up all hours.....which i can't be doing :-( darned time zones!!! :-/
ok well just so you know i'm not just plain hurshy on there, i'm hurshy238, ok?
i used to play cutthroat scrabble with my mom all the time - miss that, maybe i'll check this out, thx!
No, Mikey - I'm not literati-ing tonite - have choir....
don't feel alone Mikey - small consolation but I won't be there either :)
'cutthroat scrabble', hellenkeller? :-/ what's that?
you'll live to literati again mikey
okay, thanks. Does that mean there are 237 other hurshies on there, or did you just pick a number?
helen - definitely!!!! If you like Scrabble, you'll LOVE Literati!!!! *so ends this commercial message, and now back to our regularly scheduled program*
tis a number of special significance - i'll explain later :)
*chuckles at Vic*
(Notice how eagerly I am rushing away to the work. ha ha.)
wel, Angela; i'm sort of part of this little 'Literai' gang with MAMABEAR and a few others, you see.....and you could be there sometime, sure.....do you use yahoo messenger at all?
i'm off to a lacrosse game now anyway :) bye all!
Well, all, I have to get back to work...... ppppsssssttttttt.. .... Torg???? Want a quick hug before I go, hon?????
lol mama mikey, just basically having a very tight board using mostly all obscure words (okayed by scrabble dictionary, of course)
aw; you offer Torg one, MAMABEAR.....but not me? :-/
chic gave me the pitch already - it's finding 5 minutes to get it done. I already created a name - but not an email or IM. It's harley.deluxe if you ever see me there though.
Re6/18 pls?
bye hursh ! bye mama, feel better soon!
bye Hurshy!!! Angela - check it out on Yahoo Games.... you can play with anybody in there, you don't have to have someone lined up at all. But it is more fun with people you know!
*checks to see if he's still made of wienerschnitzel*
*mama's gettin' all the boys worked up*
hello peoples! i lay down an hour and a half ago to "rest my eyes" should know better than that... here I am, headache gone, ready to get the second half.
awwww Mikey ((((((((((((((((Mikey))))))))) ))))))))))) thanks Helen!!!!!
MAMABEAR? bye?
awwww MAMABEAR ((((((((((((((((MAMABEAR)))))) ))) )))))))))))
hi stidmama
hey stid!
lol, Angela; well, not this one ;-)
hiya stid !!
;) gotcha Mikey...hehe
grant - re6/18 = re + a flower
Hi Stid!!!!!!! Ok.... really gotta go .... but I don't wanna.....
hi again, stidmama; hope you're feeling a lot better now?
Yes Mikey Schnitzel....... always
oh stid - your mention of 'headache' turned my attention back to mine - distracted by interesting chat - supposed to be resting - big piece of conduit fell on my head a couple of hours ago, very painful - but i'm bored laying in bed!
Tx, Mitch. Odd word,eh?
Wait..... so what was Jacula's icon????? If someone said, then I missed it...
yea, shame there is no def for it.
conduit Helen??? how did that happen?
OUCH, Helen!
mama - cover of rolling stones' sticky fingers
thanks Angela!!!! Maybe I'll just keep this open here at the bottom of my screen.... yes, that works.... and go back and forth ........ tee hee
helen dear, when you get hit on the head, you're not supposed to lay down.
ah ang - trying to put up temporary vine for grapes, not paying attention - it was the longest thing i could find - i'm an idiot, basically :)
that's what I've been doing Mama - works pretty well with the alt+tab option :)
guess no one heard me before. i need the 3rd, and last, re 6/21 please?
you still get a big sympathy ouch even if you did it to yourself... :)
sorry helenkeller -- just was so glad mine was temporarily gone! was reading back through the log abit... seems like our group is one walking wounded ward!
ps - having house rewired right now, that's why i have conduit laying around - thought that might have sounded weird
not to me Helen - wife of a builder :)
thx ang & stid - that makes me smile, which makes me feel a little better :))
re6/21 = re + t4/5
Re6- shorten sideburns again
*knocks wood because of Stid before heading out on the Harley in 15 min...*
lol angela - then you are well-stocked!
:)))
It's Doneness Dance Time Again!!!!!! Another grid completed, and without using Enable this time!!!! The floor's free.......
angela, Harley-riding will be fine today -- watch out for small, handpainted blue and gold cars with mothers of teenagers behind the wheel. Otherwise, your ride should be pleasant. (yes, that describes my car -- no worries unless you plan on coming to southwest Washington....)
WTG Movieman
YAY movieman! *dance, dance*
woo hoo movieman!
wtg movieman !!!!
*^*^*^*fireworks*^*^*^*^*^for movieman!!!! *mamabear grabs movieman and swirls and twirls him around the dance floor*
no problem Stid - sticking to NH today. A bit chilly but worth it :)
movieman, what's 'enable'?
gj movieman
Helenkeller - it's the dictionary that contains all the words that are acceptable in Babble..... You can find a link to it in Angelsong's Resource Page....
movieman -- is that the "a2z list?"
thanks fmitch - took me a minute to figure out which t you meant. i'm missing the le 5/10, can anyone help?
oh, i see movieman, good to know, but i probably won't use it - too lazy, plus people here are super-helpful with great clues
cliffopa - it's the past tense of the le4/4....
MAMABEAR??? you're still here? :-/ wow; you were saying 'bye' a little while ago.....thought you were leaving?
cliff - I got stuck on the le5/10 too, take the le4/4 that means the op of fat and add another letter
ja; 'le5,10' is like a British past tense of the preceding word, cliffopa ;-)
stidmama - some people call it that, but I prefer to call it Enable, 'cos, well, that's what it's called....
a clue for the fo 7/40, first one, please....
chic - fo4/7+sprinted.....
first 'fo4,7' = 'enemies', Chic
SHHH Mikey.... I'm not REALLY here!!! I'm "working*!!!!
hmm, movieman? :-/ do we have different words?
Hey Stidmama, ride safe and keep the tire side down.
thanx, movieman! Hi Mikey!
I've finished, but I'm still here if anyone needs clueing up!!!!
thank you movieman and fmitch. and with that, i am leaving the office. not much going on (obviously if i'm babbling) back early evening to finish last 20 words. bye now!
woo, Chic...it burns XD
hmm, ok MAMABEAR? but you're chatting with everyone else, and not shhhhhh'ing them? :-P
later cliffopa -- take care!
Mikey - I think chic was asking for the fo7/40.....
hey. I see where Dir en Grey spawned from! XD
wasn't chatting with anyone in particular - just in general....... and just kidding *again* Mikey!!!!!
hi, Chic; gee.....did i have the wrong word? you said the first one.....sorry if i was mistaken?
Miyavi!!!!!! Long time, no see!!!!!!
I'm burning your retinas, Miya? Well my job is done for the day!
omg, so she was; i had a dyslexic moment, and i'm not dyslexic, either! :-/ sorry!!!
Clue for 3rd pa5/12. Almost there.
Heeeeey Movieman!!! *high five* how are you? lol Chic, you are indeedy...I may have to crawl back into my gothic bat cave...XD
ah ha, MAMABEAR; suuuuuure :-P
miyavifan -- good to see you. to clear up misperceptions (maybe) I don't ride motorcycles myself... but admire those who do! my legs are just a bit short!
It's okay, mikey. no sweat!
I'm outta here - vroom! :) Be back later tonight.
bye angela, havefun!
bye angela
Hey, Stidmama, how are you? :)

* falls to floor * miyavi! i like...thought you disappeared or something.
doing better, now that I resized my screen so the words are bigger (I am "reclining" today and have the laptop at my feet) :-)
Miyavi, I'm absolutely fine!!!!! Just been for a job interview at my local branch of Woolworth's, (well, I say interview, it was more of a 20 minute interaction session with 4 other applicants)..... And I'll find out by Tuesday if they want me back for the interview proper.....
I'm doing just greaty great thanks! There was a j-rock convention, er, thingy...a few days ago, In Camden Market! *heaven* how are you?!
Good afternoon, everyone ... got it down to ten and figure it's time to ask for help.... sc 5/14?
they still have Woolworth's somewhere? I really miss the ones we used to have... or is yours different from the old "five and dime" stores?
movie man, if you don't get the job, send them a thankyou card for the interview.
hi nan! join the party! ;-)
cyber - sc5/14=a small piece of something.....
Lol Eva...you should be so lucky XD oooh, Movieman, that's great! *coughs* if they take you on, try and persuade them to stockpile some Dir en Grey CDs, will ya? ...8D
cybernan - sc*** metal or what you may give your dog after you eat, a dinner sc***
I bet it was heaven Miy!!! Im doing fine too, good to see you.
sc 5.14 small unusable leftover piece of fabric
hi again.
Thank you -- guess I need a smack with the haddock!
Miyavi! Howdy And hi again, everbody!
Stidmama - yes they are different..... Over here they are large music/video stores..... They also sell magazines, games, toys etc.... Miyavi - I'll try, but I'm not sure they'll have heard of them.....
oooh, thanks FMitch! Great to see you too, you ole flirt...XD you betcha it was heaven...a little scary though, in some places. Several rabid fans were battling it out ^^
hey miyavi! What's the haps?!
hi old gold! back for lunch? today you could be outside without fear of skin damage... yet still you linger, tempting us with bags of chips and pretzels. tsk tsk
re 6/21 (last one)?
Miyavi - I never thought I'd say this, but it's nice to be chatting to someone who's half my age......
Hey, Boreetos! ^^ AND Deutsch! any manskirt sightings? =O Lawl Movieman...if I suddenly see Withering To Death appear in my local branch, I will personally name you a God, an archangel and a saint...XD
Cyber - re6/21=to cut hair again.....
nan - re + tr4/5
Lol Boreetos...not a lot, exams in *erk* several days (yah...I'm revising...really...*coughs*) 'sup in your end of the world? ^^
OOOOOOHHHHHH.... new people came in while I was off WORKING!!! Hi Miyavi!!! Hey boreeeeeeeetos!!!!! And how goes it, nan?
LOL Movieman! I'm really a 96 year old in disguise, it's just I age very well.
thanksfully, no sighting of manskirt. but the weather is warming...
miya, its good to see you! hi mamabear!
Hey Mama! ^^ that makes two of us that are "working" then...XD
man skirt!
mamabear, you keep using that term I don't know.. wo**? ;-) actually, today is my last day of goofing off, Grant goes back to school tomorrow and I will need to start painting and writing again....
'manskirt', Deutsch??? :-/ what/who is that???
thanks, it's great to see you too! While I was away, Rolin, my teacher, printed out something you said...it was nice...so thank you so much for that! ^^
:)
*winces* be strong, Deutsch. be strong...for both of us *wipes away a tear* oh, Thelma and Louise moment...
So, introducing a new topic to the log, which movies, if any, are you folks looking forward to this year?
Cannot see the re4/7 just after the church folk.Help,pls
oooh oohhh!! Movies!! I love movies!!!
Thanks again -- think I need a lunch break -- these are all ones I should have seen!
i'm really stuck on the 're6,18'.....if anyone has a good clue for that, please? :-/
X3 ofcourse, Da vinci Code, Snakes on a Plane!!!!
*yargh* Movieman, I'm not going near the TV for a while. I watched The Ring over the weekend with my friends...as well as my nails being bitten down to the quick and LARGE shadows under my eyes, I don't plan to go into my lounge ever again. also, I'll be dead by next Saturday
LOL Boreetos...down boy XD
grant - re4/7=large expanse of coral (i.e. the Great Barrier R***)......
the man next door wears a skirt occassionaly. One day, I was talking to an elderly neighbor. we were sitting on her stoop. He came over and sat across from us. let's just say we both got a ... uh... well a visual.
grant - think Great Barrier R***
sorry, I get excited. I'm going to see Silent Hill tonight.
Mikey - re6/18=stood up again......
My wife is right. I've been at this too long. Thanks for the eye-opener.
Mayavi, I have the Texas chainsaw massacre sitting on my TV. Can't decide if I should watch it. LOL
he does, Deutsch??? :-o wow, ok; well, i've worn a dress before, actually.....lol; i played the part of a female impersonator, impersonating Marilyn Monroe, for a humourous cabaret show i was in once.....that took a lot of prep work! :-P oh ja; and MAMABEAR thinks i should dance in a pink tutu, don't you, MAMA? ;-)
Hang in there grant - how many left to go?
ah yes; right you are.....*thank you*, movieman!!! :-) great clue!
Only 3
awww, Deutsch! I was seriously considering watching that (yeah...because I'm 18...*coughs*) because of the guy it was based on, Ed Gein...but I decided, er, against it in the end *lip trembles* Well, okay, my mum didn't let me...:)
any help on the other j word. I've got the denim one.
now Mikey, it would depend on which pink -- not the light, fluffy pink, I hope! nor even the bright fuschia color -- perhaps something a little more dignified, like the color of the edges of the english daisies in my lawn?
Yes, he does, Mikey. and the next day, he was in the backyard without a shirt. He's just a skinny old hippy. yuck!
go grant go!
sc 5.12 pls
wah, several j-rockers wear skirts and stuff but by some freak of nature thing they actually look GOOD in them. unfortunately it lead to my science teacher telling me a male j-rocker in my planner was "very sexy"
which sc 5/12?
boreetos - wood/varnish finish (I think) same as country
he, who hasn't worn a dress a time or two. Hell, I wore a bright red spandex bodysuit for halloween one year. (I was Marvin the Martian)
oh my yes, stidmama; it would have to be just my shade of pink, of course! ;-) hmm, Deutsch.....i don't see anything wrong with a guy being in his own backyard shirtless, but i'll remember to always have one on when i see you on messenger from now on! ;-) lol
yes boreetos, but when you were ten doesn't really count :-)
I'm waiting for X3 as well, also Sin City 2, the remake of The Omen (released on 6/6/06, how apt is that?), Pirates Of The Caribbean 2, Superman Returns, Clerks 2, and the remake of Casino Royale (it'll be much more serious this time).....
sc 5.12 the last one mama
boreetos- did you see memoirs of a geisha? might help with your J-word
wouldn't want to frighten you again, after all! :-P
I don't mind that he was shirtless. But the image, along with the day before's visual were a bit much.
im done. late today.
sc 5/12: I think it's a sort of curtain they use in the theater? like a sc**** door in the summer without the last cons.
Interesting visual there, Boreetos...
i wear a lot of spandex/lycra, boreetos.....dance tights, unitards, etc!
Deutsch - you should watch TCM, 'cos despite the title, there's hardly any blood or gore in it at all...... It's more psychologically scary......
lol, Deutsch; ja, i guess that would be a bit strange! :-P
movieman, glad you mentioned Pirates 2 -- we will definitely go see that (but usually we see movies at home -- it's cheaper)
hmm; at least he wasn't shirtless in a skirt.....or was he?
movieman, i concur, Clerk 2 especially. I'm something of a Kevin Smith fan(atic). Pirates 2 looks really promising, and I hope the best for Superman Returns... Sin City 2 cannot suck folling the sheer unadulterated awesomeness of the first one. And being a fan of Lay3r Cak3, I have good feelings about the new Bond.
mikey -- i'd rather a man be shirtless in a skirt than the other way round!
yeah, its true, I got the bodysuit at a dance wear supply house. thanks for the j clues as well everyone, I forgot to say before.
okay, I really must focus now... disappearing momentarily into the grid!
ooh, I lie. There's like...ONE movie I'm looking forward to seeing. Oresama! since they're actually subtitling it at last, so I don't have to try and follow the plot going on whenever they say "thank you"
Mikey, LOL. No, he was wearing je**s. thanks for the tip movie. I sometimes forget about that channel.
lmao; shirtless in a skirt, stidmama??? :-P hehe; you've really got us laughing here with that one!!! :-D
tnx stidmama - sc 5.12 are actually small loose stones
huh, Deutsch? why write it as 'je**s', if you mean 'jeans'? that's not a bad word around here, is it? :-/
I like the look of the Promise as well. It looks awesome. Along the same lines as Crouching Tiger, Hero and House of Flying Daggers.
Deutsch - when I said TCM, I was abbreviating the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.....
no mikey, je** isn't a bad word, but its in the grid today.
*whispers* (It's in the grid)
hi all. just got started...any help for cr6/21 please?
and of course, that figures, boreetos; i get all my dancewear from such places! :-)
i wonder if that's the first time that Turner Classic Movies and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre have been confused?
i know; i did the 'je' section some time ago now....but had you not drawn attention to it that way, i'm sure nobody would've concluded that, anyhow? :-P
I also like the look of Tony Jaa's next movie, Tom yung goong.....
thanks, for the clarification, movie. I thought you were strangely changing the subject! LOL Okay. I think Friday afternoon in broad daylight I will watch the movie.
mikey it's babble protocol.
Tom yung goong - sounds like something you should have on rice with sweet & sour sauce and an eggroll
Movie, now I look forward to watching it. Psyco scary is my favorite.
D, i think the original TCM is better, creepy in different ways. But the new one isn't too bad. They pretty much just updated it and changed some things.
can anyone please give me a clue for the 1st pa 5/12
boreetos, I think I have to original. At least that's what I meant to get.
Mamabear - that's actually what the movie is named after..... Those crazy Thais....
ruthy: think dorothy lamour
argh! Deutsch, nooo! I can't deal with psycho horror at all T_T how do you DO it?
blueskies there are 2 CR 6.21 - the last and weirder one is same as the 'ripened' milk and change second letter
ruthy pa 5.12 last 3 letters as je 4.9
speaking of psycho horror, I just picked up this game called "ZOMBIES!!!" It's an ever changing board game that pits the players against eachother and a hoard of advancing Zombies! It's good fun, and come to find out, there are several expansion packs that feature things like Glow in the Dark Zombies and DevilDogs! woot!
With a side order of sum yung ting
Miyavi, I don't know. But I've always liked those types of movies. I'm a fan of Hitchcock. *thinks for a minute* Actually, my mom was pregnant with me when she saw Psycho....
sorry temple owl i havent got a clue
Mamabear, sure you wouldn't prefer Sum Yung Guy? :P LOL Deutsch... so much makes sense now...
thanx lynxx..stilll missing it tho..
LOL miyavi!
blueskies - edam is a type - change second letter
^^ having said that, though, Deutsch... whatever my mother watched when pregnant with me... *shudders* I would NOT like to see that movie O.O;;
I'm sure it was japanese, what ever it was, miyavi!
ty lynxxx...again! i got it that time! :P
I'm a big fan of "psycho" movies as well..... Especially The Silence of the Lambs, Se7en etc....
boreetos, zombies sounds like it could be fun. Is it a computer game? who makes it?
ty lynxxx i got it there as well
i remember watching Nightmare on Elm Street when I was little. That movie was creepy and awesome.
I agree movie BRB, need to get the dog
lol Deutsch...well Japanese cinema does have a rep for being slightly warped :) however, I can't really imagine my mum bopping to Diru with me nestled up in the womb, unless she's been hiding an obsession really, really well...
Is anyone else, like me, a fan of Peter Jackson's pre-LOTR output, i.e. Bad Taste, Braindead (aka Dead Alive), The Frighteners etc....?
i''m going to have nightmares just reading about these movies!! i didnt' finish nightmare on elm st. as a kid..it freaked me out too badly! and i haven't even attempted to watch the Ring!
It's a board game, and it's made by Journeyman Press. It's cool, veryone starts out at Town Square and on your turn you flip over a map card and lay it down to add to the board, so its different everytime and you never know what the city is going to look like. Plus you might be going somewhere and someone else puts a dead-end on the end of your road. The first one to the helicopter wins. :)
Boreetos - I can rember watching some of the Elm Street movies when I was younger too, (about 12 years old I think)..... I couldn't sleep on my own for at least a week afterwards.....
movieman, heck yes! Not too keen on meet the feebles, but Dead Alive and Braindead are terrific. And the Frightners is one of my fav Mike Fox movies!
Blueskies - don't!!! don't watch the Ring!!! *rocks gently back and forth, humming* it does...strange things to your mind...O.o
ugh these dr are making me mad.. im trying to call and no one is picking up lol
Boreetos - it's good to know you have such excellent taste in movies.... By the way, Braindead and Dead Alive are alternate titles for the same movie....
carra -- didn't see you come in!
yeah its true.. I meant Dead Alive and Bad Taste.
just came in :D
How are you Stid?
did you spot Peter Jackson in LOTR?
Boreetos, sounds like a fun game Movie, didn't Jackson also do a movie about two girls in Australia who kill one's mother?
pj is hilarious in Bad Taste.
boreetos - I spotted him in Fellowship..... He was the hairy guy standing outside the Prancing Pony....
Hi carra!
crap, I gotta get back to work!!! See you kids in a few hours.
miyavi...i had to change the dvd player in my room 'cause it made that clicking noise like in the Grudge..i have NO intention of ever attempting to watch the ring......
doing okay -- having a quieter day than I wanted, combination of little things, you know? but it's not too bad. you?
chomping on a carrot!
Hi Deutsch!
Deutsch - he certainly did..... It was called "Heavenly Creatures" and it starred a pre-Titanic Kate Winslet....
bye boreetos!
bye boreetos!
Later, Booooorrrreeeetoooossssss!!!!! !!!
LOL Blueskies, sounds like me...I haven't entered my lounge in four days, I won't be alone in a room with a TV, and I always leave rooms backwards now. I freak out at puddles of water on the floor! *shudders* oh, the joys of being a wimp...:)
can anyone give me a clue for the 1st pa 512 I didnt understand templeowls clue
That's it, Movieman! Yes, I really enjoyed that movie!
Later, Boreetos! and thanks!
sha: p + three vowels + n
I'm just a mine of movie information!!!!!!

ty stidmama
abe - sc5/14=a tiny piece of something.....

LOL Blueskies, lucky you! I was unlucky enough to watch the Ring with two friends and an EX-boyfriend... he leant on the remote control to flick the TV onto static...loudest I've ever screamed D8
ty movieman
Miyavi - did he do that on purpose or was it an accident?

pa5/12 def A garment consisting of a rectangular piece of printed cloth worn especially in Polynesia by men and women as a wraparound skirt LOL given the earlier convo in the log :)
On purpose T_T he also got my best friend (she's Chinese and with very long black hair) to put her hair over her face and tap me on the shoulder...more screaming, and I think I involunatarily hit her in the face...:)
I've got to run along now, see you all later! (((Miyavi))) that's incase you start trembling again. :)
miyavi - he sound like he could give my mate punster a run for his money in the sadistically evil stakes.....LOL
lol, thanks Deutsch!!! Good luck with manskirt...:/
Later, Deutsch.....
Still here, M_fan?? How are you?
anyone have the second re 7/32?
Lawl Movieman...he said it was payback for the time a firebell rang during both his and my P.E. lessons, and all the girls ran screaming to get changed, so we were all covered up on the field, but the boys weren't, and me and my friend kept going "nice leeeeeegs" and singing "WE can see yer knees, ooh, WE can see yer knees!"
I'm great thanks, Torgone! And yourself? :)
bye Deutsch!
Not bad. A lot of cr4/6 going on, but that's nothing new ..
My friend set up his sister's DVD player to the scene where the Ring girl crawls out of the TV, and turned it on from his room when she was alseep... And she wouldn't even touch the cover *before* he did it...
*pulls face* but on the plus side, you just helped a fourteen year old to regain the will to live with this grid...thanks for the clue XD
re7/32 = regret or re+ m5/12
thanks FMitch !:)
Urk, I'm off for a late dinner. Ciao!
Ktf, REALLY?! *ooohmygodohmygodohmygod* I t's like on this Japanese TV show called Morning Musume, they showed a bunch of Japanese schoolgirls The Ring, and then arranged for the kid who played Samara to actually crawl out of the bottom of the TV...XD

Anj has gone away? why?!

cybernan cr 6/21 - think of what edam is

I'm having issues with the RE words today
er 5/10: e + flower
T + RA 4/5
anybody go the last re 5/10 ive got the re doing the marathon again
i'm ignoring the res until last...
i believe that would be view again, but i'm missing 5 r's myself (that's all i'm missing...argh)
da 6/21: immediately preceding the dd/mm/yy
ja; you and me *both*, Minski.....i'm horribly stuck now on the last 2.....the last 're5,10' and 're6,21' :-/
thankyou minski & hurshy
Hi again, everbody!
cnan, someone comes in unexpectedly, they might st***** you, rhymes with that
cheers hurshy always there when i need u (i must be blind )
Hey everybody... How goes it?
re 5/10: view again re 6/21: cut again (as in your hair or the hedge)
hi again, Deutsch; as you can see, i've miraculously recovered from being gobbled up by smaller and disembodied! :-P
Hi Mikey! It's so nice to have you "all" here. The miracles of Babble chat!
Mikey that's a nice pic, too!
oh, doh; thanks, cybernan.....but i had the 'view again' word already, in the wrong slot! :-P what i need is the last 're5.10' word, and the last word, after that one.....i'll try your clue for the last 're6,21' though.....thanks again!
Hi smithchick!
Thanks, Hurshy - what a stupid word! Done!!!
re6/21 = re + cut
It's good, isn't Deutsch? A small homecoming.
woops; i mean i need the 2nd-to-last 're5,10' word! :-P am i tired, or what? :-/
YAY cybernan!
hi smithchick! long time no see!
Mikey -- view again is the last re 5/10
o.k everyone ive goto to go but ive only got 3 to get so its like tr 5/12,tr 6/21 and the tr 7/32(these are the first ones not the neater ones),help please
Yes, mab. Are you red tulips? They are pretty (I don't know flowers very well)
good idea I'll return to the REs if I have time later
aw; thank you, Deutsch!!! :"> *blush* but what do you mean, 'too'? :-P lol; that one i had up earlier wasn't very nice! lol
re 5/10: entered the race again
Hello shutterbug and stidmama... It's been crazy around here. Hubby glares at me when I spend all day babbling, too. He thinks I should be productive. Don't know why!
ja; i know, cybernan.....but as i explained, i had that word already, in the wrong slot.....so what i'm really stuck on now, and need, is the second-to-last 're5,10' word, please?
*confused* how is babble not productive?
The 1st TR6&7 are another word for shakes and its plural. I think there was once a movie by this name but I could be wrong.
hi, smithchick; ja.....very addictive this is, isn't it?
tr 5/12: add a consonant to the tr 4/5 tr 6 & 7(plural) -- what you feel during an earthquake
Mikey, I just meant glad to have you whole and nice pic. I'm an Enlish teacher who stresses clarity and then I don't practice it. LOL shame on me!
T+RA4/5
hmm, ok Minski.....thanks, but that's not the word i asked about.....it's the second-to-last 're5,10' word, i'm stuck on here.....any clues please, anyone? :-/
Hey Mikey! I'm way too obsessive. It doesn't usually take me very long if I use a list and don't chat, so when he's home, I usually do that. But I miss chatting!
ah, ok; thank you, Deutsch! wow; didn't realize you're an English teacher? :-)
Sorry those were for sandr
tore tores
Mikey, Yes, but I do mostly contract work now. Friday morning it's better business writing. Next week I'm teaching a seminar on how to be a better note taker.
sorry -- don't know where that came from -- had copied and pasted an earlier clue for Mikey.
I've given up on the REs for now. I only have 2 RE5/10s and I'm pretty sure you said you already have them.
Ummm.... cyber...
198/2519 thanku all for the clues hopefully speak tomorrow goodnight and godbless
re 5/10: entered the race again
Hey, its a good thing I already had those words!

Congrats and bye sha!!!
Yea! for sha!
cybernan - just another 196 to let us know about!
Night sandr. Yay sha!!!
Bye, sandr!
apologies, gang -- was trying to copy and paste an earlier clue for Mikey -- the orginal apology also went astray -- don't know what's going on!
I think I saw the original apologie, cnan
see it's all there now -- guess I was just typing and sending too quickly.
lol, cybernan; you sound as confused as i am right now! ;-) and thanks for that clue.....sure helped! :-)
Dept of Homeland Security interferance, nan.
just glare back, smithchick!!!!!
anybody? some weird r4 from the fourth row?
ah i remembered it! 1000 points to me!
Have you got the birds, Hurshy?
Hurshy, I've no clue, but if you'll be patient, I should have the grid finished in about 6 hours! Then I can help you! LOL
or how about the fish eggs?
YAY sha! bye sandr ...

YAY hurshy! *start dancing*
Woohoo!!! Yay, hurshy!!
Woooooot hurshy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*dance dance dance*
help, please; anyone have a clue for the last 're' word.....the 're6,21' there? :-/
Yea Hurshy!
re 6/21 cut hair again
oh sheesh; never mind, found it myself :-P
lol; it was pretty obvious, too....it's always the obvious ones i don't see for looking!!! :-P
thank you, thank you, no need for so much applause (but monetary donations always happily accepted)
another stupid word! --- congrats, Hurshy -- I resorted to the list today --- got a sunburn yesterday while out on the golf course, then came home and painted trellises until 8:00 pm.
mamabear, just read your comment. I can't glare back right now because hubby is fragile... we just found out it was going to be triple our estimate (which we thought was already high) to have a water main put in on our property. He's despondent.
ah; thanks anyhow, hurshy.....appreciate the thought! :-)
sunburn! trellises! both lovely words.
course it's not so lovely to HAVE a sunburn. sorry cnan :(
That's Ok, Hurshy -- got your drift -- it is nice that summer is finally on its way.
a clue, a clue, my kingdom for a clue! well 2 clues the first pa 5/12 and the 2nd pa 6/21, please
pa 5/12: pa + 2 vowels + hump
smithchick -- ((hug)) when we dug our well 6 years ago, it was three times deeper than anyone else in the neighborhood! I know how your husband feels!
pa6/21 pirate's bird
pa 6/21: colourful bird that talks
The crazy thing is it is to hook up to city water. We're talking $15,000+. Insane.
gotta run to the store. See you later!
thanx nan and hurshy!
It cost us $1800 last year to install a sewer line from the house to the new sewer line, and now we have to pay another $9,500 (our share of the trunk line)
Bye, Deutsch... Yowch cybernan! I'll be happy when all of this is behind us.
later Deutsch!
The real shocker for us was the $3000 estimate for painting our living-dining room, entrance hall and stairwell! There is so much building going on around here, the trades can demand just about anything!
Finished - see you all later
okay, I am stuck on the ar 5. monkey typing isn't doing it for me!
bye lynxx -- thanks for the help
YAY lynxxx!
It's pretty reasonable around here usually, but we bought four lots and the water company is treating it like a subdivision of which we are the developers as opposed to being the sole owners of a 30 acre tract of property. So we can't just run a line. We have to do the whole main. The engineer that gave us the estimate was my husband's uncle. I shudder to think what it would be without a family discount!
Congrats, lynxxx!!! Bye!
ar5/10 ar + ***ecommunications
ar 5/10: paintings and drawings + spanish the

Better go and get some work (ugh, can't believe I used that word) done -- back at the flip :)

nm found it
rumple: one who takes the center out of the apple!
Hey, Yo smaller
Hi, rump--if you have the plural of apple centers you need what we call the people who take them out. NNoiw could you please guide me in the matter of ar/5,10? Ta
Reminds me of Ralph from the HOneymooners - "can it co** a apple"..... anybody remember that?
G'fda7,Stid. As usual our great minds think alike, only mine is much lowerr. Or my6 fingers are

later TempleOwl!
brb
Bye temple owl!
Bye Temple
you there K? :D
Thanks for ryinhg to meet my needs, Stid. My last message was all scrambled because the phone rang in the middle and made me jump; then I pressed "send" without pause to regard the work of my clumsy fingers. Now, Spanish is not one of my languages--I thought the masc. sing pronoun was as in "* *Cid", and there isn't an "L" in the grid. Is there some other way of suggesting the last letter, please?
time to beg for clues. i need the last three cr words, cr6/21 cr5/18 and cr7/44. will clue for food.
Hey, you guys! I love the juxtaposition of the 'mama's' icons..... Anyway, thanks to your good clues, I got 65 words on my first go around! Just popping in for a minute, good to see you all!
Wow Stid, Ifound it ! IT WAS there but noit the side I was lloking. Mea mxima culpa.
cr 5/18 Tomb Raider Lara Cr***
thanks vpchat! that gave me the 7 as well. wouldn't have the last cr6/21 lying about, would you?
sorry, I need those other two CRs also :)
bonkler, think 'volcano' and also the plural
cr6/21 - c plus Miss Witherspoon's first name.
ah, for the cr7 add a hospitals trauma room initials to it, like the famous tv show
...or the many round impact spots visible on the face of the Moon.
marvelous, thanks haz!
Thanks, haz! I needed that one too!
just got that - I was trying to spell that in the wrong direction. how about the 2nd cr6/21?
You're welcome!
need a clue for the last ar5/10 please
three to go. my brain always seems to turn into pudding toward the end of a grid.
down to 3, need c5,12 I have the apple center plural and the one that rhymes with horse
The second cr6/21 - c plus Miss Witherspoon's first name.
ar5 the product of creative work + the phonetic spelling of the 12th letter
haz1558, just saw your clue back there. Thanks!
JBsAnno - the juxta-what of my who?
The last co5/12 switches round the last letters of the plural apple one.
Excuse my ignorance, Haz, but who the blankety-blank is Miss Witherspoon when she's at home?
Thanks bonkler got it now
hi.
But the one you're looking for is the one that takes the co4 out of the apple.
cheers rosalind
Hetty - she's an actress. For you another clue might be, a different spelling of what you try to get rid of when you iron.
da6/21 after the pub gamers and before the romantic meeting?
Thanks Haz, 2 crs left
da6/21 - plural adventurers (da5)
im missing a d. I've got three to do with challenging people I've got three to do with throwing games I've got three to do with courtship what am i missing?
Or the da6/21 - pub game plus French masculine 'the'
got that one haz, looking for the second last da 6/21. but thanks, your clue will surely help another babbler on the path
boreeeetos - cute song, but it doesn't rhyme.
ned last cr6,21 and cr7,44
ty hazl, my last d
thanks mamabear. how bout a clue?
cr7/44 - is the person who looks after the cr5/18
thanks haz. the french pronoun did it!
Hooray for French pronouns!
Haz, I never iron. Could it be anagram of crease? Wrinkle? Dampness? surely not. Unlike the iron I used to use, I'm mystfied (mist, don't you know, used to come out of it. For me it's IN the head, all the time)
oh nevermind, i was missing the french pronoun one as well!
HOORRAY!!
oh, a clue? sorry - I'm not working today - only harrassing!!!!! *harrass, harrass*
lol hetty!
MAMAMAAAAA!
Hetty - you're on the right track. It rhymes with a dairy foodstuff, rumoured to be popular with mice.
oh well, why didn't you say so mamabear? sheesh
{{{{{MAMABEAR}}}}}}
JBsAnno!!!!!!! I asked you a question before but thought you were gone!!!!!
you didn't ask!
Sorry, I missed it - BRB, I'll check!
how about that lonely f word on the bottom row?
yeah, how about it!!!!! geeeeesh!
:) mb.
******VOILA******* ET FINI!!
OOOhhhh, I see it now. The juxtaposition, you know, putting together side by side....of your icon and stidmama's, who I think is gone now.
well, me and my trusty monkey done finishized. anyone care for a clue before i make foods?
Done... Guess I'd better get off of here before hubby comes home and glares at me again. Wouldn't want him to throw himself off a cliff or anything. Bye!
yea! for rumple!
Yes, please bonkler! The ja5? I'm just not seeing it!
yea for smithchick! and yea for bonkler!
*******FIREWORKS******** for SMITH CHICK

MAMA, are you overdoing it on the chocolate in the afternoon thing again?
yeah, JBsAnno - but it is a bear to dance to! *a bear???? LOL*
I have to tell ya, MamaB, that I couldn't get your icon at first. Looked like a weird pair of boots....
.... must be the outfit......
just change the t to a b and you got it, JB!!
it must be a guy thing, i got it right off the bat. :).
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, MAMA!!!! !
i gotta go out for a while, back for the flip, folks!
don't look like toots to me mama....oopss, wrong letter changed
bye stidmama!
so seriously, the f word on the bottom?
Hey all, how is everyone this evening?
LOL bonkler!!!!!
Oh, I must away - the kitties are hungry, and I need to do more decluttering. I'd rather be Babbling! Keep it real, MamaBear, and don't harass poor boreetos too much, okay?
hi jera!
how many letters, boreeeeetos? I'll give it a shot, just for you..... Hi Jera!!!!!!
boreetos - I'll have a look to try and work out which it is.
OK..... tee hee
f on the bottom, i don't have pro membership, would it be the one implying use of physical pressure or intimidation?
i dont know, I trying not to use the list. It's the only one on the bottom row though.
So, humorously, bor, rhymes with the middle of an apple
fl4/7
fl 4/7 - a kind of market
Those both start with the upper f unfortunately.
JBsAnno - out! BBL (tee hee, backatcha, MamaB!)
yeah! thanks haz!
i was so excited I typed in the word with an exclamation point at the end of it!
fo5/18 use of physical fo***
any help please for the first ra6/18 and the ra7/28 which follows
You're welcome!
so that means you don't need my help, Mr. Eetos?
cant believe I didn't see that. that does it for me today. I'll see you all tomorrow! Bye!!!
Extend the ra4/4 mo
ra6/18 the person delivering the ra** and plural
ra 6/18 one who ra4/4s ra 7/28 more than one of them
ra6/18 and 7/28 - those who rage and shout
me, too!!! I mean it was just glaring!!!!!!! tee hee (there's a grid in here???? where????)
yeah, thanks though mamabear! thanks vpchat as well. I didn't see yours first but you right on the ball. thanks!
Bye boreetos!
LOL to you too, Boreetos. We seem to be on a women's names kick today--if you read your Dickens you'll descover the surname of Rosa, which is how I came to know the da**** word. Now, thanks to Haz I know the name of an actress I've never heard of before (any relation to Diana Reese? Does she spell it "Rhyse" perhaps, or "Rise" like the opera singerof my day?) and also the name of a Malayan dagger, which I'm sure will come in useful around the house, much as the iron used to do. THANK YOU Haz, my love. You are a princess
bye!
anytime!!! Glad I could help!!!!
*waves to boreetos*.........
thank you Haz and bonkler...why didnt i see those????
Hetty - she spells it as cr6/21 minus the c! I'm glad you got there in the end - it's hard to know what names to use.
must make the food. thanks for clues and company folks. happy babbling to you.
oops.. i also need the last ra6/18 too please
Mo - we all do the same thing! It's a nice grid today, though, isn't it?
bye bonkler!!!!! have a good nite!
think c + peanut butter cup
ra6/18 those who ra5/10... ciao
ooops again ..got it!!!!!
The last ra6/18 is a plural of one who ra4/4s
Public Service Announcement: Please know that I am not ignoring any pleas for clues...... as I have not entered nary a word myself. Thank you.
i need the last re 6. I asked for a clue earlier and then my computer crashed before i got it! :s
last re6/21, to cut again
thanks again Haz and bonkler
the preceding was a broadcast on the mambear emergency broadcast system. mam your cups of mirth are running over, so to speak, and now i'm really out.

I have found so far 38 words alot to find. so far I'm on a roll
Good for you Judy :) Welcome to Babble
Hi folks. I'm back to find my last 4 words.
Hi Jacula :)
Yay ! I'm done!
Ooh! I see Mamabear's been trying distraction techniques with her zippered cleavage.LOL.
Congratulations Chic!!!!
Congrats!
unlike you Jacs LOLOLOL
I'd know that bulge anywhere :)
Hi Faerie. Well done Chic! Welcome Judy.
Hi Jacula and you're not a distraction?! lol...
Moi, Faerie? *Looks innocent.*
Chic - my point exactly LOL
don't pay that innocent game with me little missy....
See I can't even type for looking at your icon :)
At least we are equal opportunity babbler- eyers!
Such a shame when the fashion for tight trousers changed. There's no fun in looking at baggy trousers and boxer short waistbands. LOL.
I agree 100%.....Tight jeans should make a Large come back *teehee*
Ahem! Anyway, my last 4 words... *peers at grid hopefully*
I agree. Stopped watching basketball when they changed to those long baggy shorts....
Lets just hope they don't change the baseball uniforms!!!
Chic - You'll have to switch to waching swimming and cycling.:D
*watching.
Ballet is best actually...
swimming .... yes....I like watching the swimmers *drool* I mean they are such great athletes.
Chic - True.
(Wonder if the stories about rolled-up socks down the tights are true?)
so what 4 do you need, jacula
Chic - don't let Mikey hear you say that...You will be his hero for ever and ever and ever...
Erm, what 4 do I need? Let's see... (Nips off to get BJ's list.)
Not all ballet danseurs are like Mikey, if you know what I mean...
True, Chic, but eye-candy is eye-candy anyway.
Yes I do Chic....and I do love watching ballet. they are truly amazing.
the only gay guys I droled over were some of the ones as the showtime show "Queer as Folk" Gale Harold is superb...
once again Jacs in correct....good eye candy is hard to beat :)
Right. I need es5/12, 1st re4/7, 1st re5/10, tr5/12.
Chic I've noticed that most gay guys are really hot. What a shame.
ooh la la, Gale Harold. See him guest spot on Law & Order? a while ago
We love that show Queer eye for the straight guy es 5 you might hire a companion for the evening; take out the 'r'
es - take a person from north of england and put a vowel in front (which one is obvious)
Never heard of the guy but just looked him up on Google images. Pretty!
1st re4/7 Australia's Great Barrier RE4/7
Missy he just did a spot on 'The Unit' last week...
Thank you Chicj & Missyem. Got the 'es' now.
And Gale isn't gay, a nice Canadian -- QAF was his first tv gig. he'll probably go back to the theatre
im in the house
hi everyone :D
TR5/12 T+RA4/5
re - the re** of the ocean.....uses the 4pt tile at the end
Chic, DAMN! I really have a crush on him
Minski, thank you for the re4/7. Can't believe I didn't see that!
Hi Jac, how are you today?: Like the others I'm quite wowed by your icon. There must be a reason you chose it, but perhaps it's best not to know. I've been strugglung with strange words for three hours and I'm only halfvway through, so I'm off for a while to cook a good dinner for my very own hero.
rre 5/10 do a race over again
been studying for my arch. exams & not watching tv at night for WEEKS now, which is why I'm taking a babble break :)
wut do you guys mean by 5/10 and stuff???
Later Hetty :)
I was so hoping he wasn't gay but he's an excellent actor. His role might be recurring on " the Unit" as one of the wives got a job on his radio station...
Jaa - ro 4/5 means the word starts with ro has 4 letters and is worth 5pts
Thanks for the re5/10, Chic.
Jaa - you should go look at Angelsongs resource page and look at the rules of the game and the 2 letter word list. Welcome to babble.
oh, hubba hubba! so now I gotta watch the Unit ;) or tape it
ohmm k thanks
tr 5/12 is the past tense of the tr 4/5 above same letter as starting one....
Hetty - Not sure if you're still here. I chose the icon I did (the cover of The Stones' Sticky Fingers album) some time ago when I saw 'zipper day' on the theme list. I have the album on vinyl and it was the first thing that came into my head when I saw the theme.
im not as smart as you people i am only 14!
Jaa - your welcome. if you need clues just ask we are willing to help :)
thx
Welcome Jaa. Age is no barrier to playing and enjoying Babble.
Jaa - there are several 14yr olds that play this game so don't be so hard on yourself. You can do it.
haha i only have 57 points!! i suck!
good evening everyone:)
Jaa - thats alright. and you don't suck. you just gotta know how the game is played thats all. Look at Angelsongs page really it is a great help.
Hello Jean
Got to go cut my strawberries for dessert tonite. See ya at the flip!
Minski - thanks for that tr5/12, my final word. I KNOW I put that in earlier when the site was on a go slow and it wasn't accepted. Oh well, such is life. Thanks for getting me to try it again.
ok i'll go there
see ya Chic :) enjoy the berries!!
see ya Chic, thanks for the heads up on dreamy Gale
i am not going to win today so i am going to go. bye!
CONGRATULATIONS JACULA!!! WHOOT!!!!!!! joi ns Jacs in dance of doneness*
'Bye Chic, and thanks once again for the clues.
jaa - see ya. come back again.
Faerie, that was energetic! I'm all out of breath now.:-)
me too that was a nice fast dance
Jaa - there are not really any winners or losers here. Don't beat yourself up. Nice meeting you. Come back soon.
Jacs how about the se 5/10 please
I mean the se 7 *sorry*
Faerie - se5/10 - more se4/4 (the word before it).
se7/28 - like the wavy edge of a knife blade.
ty :)
Just completed about 7 hours' worth of ironing (done on and off throughout the day) and came here after watching Jack Osbourne's 'Adrenalin' programme on tv. He seems to have turned his life around, I hope it stays that way.
Holly cow....I've still got 23 wrd to find yet...I'm never going to finish if I dont just get right in the grid and stay there.
Faerie - you do that and just yell when you need a clue. I'll be around and about for you.
and I join in the dance of doneness.......... huff, puff
I like Jack he is cool. I actually got my entire yard mowed and raked again today. That took about 41/2 hours. But no ironing...I gotta iron jeans tomorrow.
Well done, Joey!
my mantra of the day... when in doubt add an "s" or "er" to the end -- or both!!
Congratulations Joey WHOOT!!!!!
thanks, thanks, and congrats to all who finished before me
Thanks Jacula I may need you before its over with :)
Faerie - you need to build up lots of steam for ironing jeans. I hope you don't put creases in them though? (Saw the log earlier. LOL)
joey's great at clues
i was trying so hard to finish that I stayed out of the eye candy discussion - but it is one that is near and dear to my heart.
missy - thanks. i will be here for a while
Oh yeah Joey I'll be needing you. And as for the eye candy. Well we are not dead or blind so it must be ok to look :)
i love to look - don't know the Gale person that was mentioned, I will have to look him up
Nope Jacs I don't. Thanks for your concern. I used to do that years ago. But I learned my lesson.
Missyem - sometimes it's a Latin day and you need to add an 'a' or an 'ae', if in doubt. Today's definitely an add an 's' or an 'er' day.
brb I need a cold Pepsi.
OK I've finished at last, but I really regret starting this one, I found it very difficult. That blessed colourful talking bird had me stumped for ages,
CONGRATULATIONS WREN!!!!!
congrats ExWren
WELL DONE, ExWren. I'm sorry you found the grid so hard. Strange how we're all so different in what we find easy to see. Pretty Polly jumped out at me.
could anyone spare a clue for the ja5/22 or je4/9, pl?
Jac, thx, this is the first one I've tried that's so straightforward! usually I'm spelling with ae's oe's etc. :)
Oh, and, Wren, life's too short for regrets! (Sound of Edith Piaf singing.)
ja is the country
ja5/22 is an Oriental country and also a decorative technique using black enamel.
je is a girl's name
TY....searching..
je4 is a girl's name (think Miss Harlow or Norma J*** Baker) and also a fabric known as denim.
bird? did I miss a bird somewhere? what's it start w/?
Hi everyone!!!, need help with cr7/44
Beazus - what is the guy in my icon wearing? Your je4 word is the singular of that.
Well you know my pet hate and there were thirteen of them!
TY everyone! I can't believe I missed BOTH of those! I need coffee now.....thanks!
Hi Peri. Your cr7/44 is a (Scottish) farmer.
missy, I already said, colourful and talks
cr - if you are a person who does arts and cr......., change the a to an o
haddock time, oh, wet & slimy one, too. Thanks!
Wren - Yes, I know your pet hate. I was stumped by a couple of them myself today.
thanks joey, got the cr7 from your clue, thanks Jacula now I know what a Scottish farmer is
missy, it starts with a pa
Long John Silver's shoulder pet whacks Missy with a wet and slimey haddock.:-)
Just popping in to say hi, and show my team spirit. One of my necessary computer programs threw a fit this morning, and I've spent the majority of the day trying to get it back right again, which I finally did. I have a few words babbled, from before the computer episode, but really should make like June Cleaver b4 S/O gets home. I'll do my best to do both:)
I'm back
I have 3 p's left, I've been saving them....
indeed, Jac!
need help with both fr7's please
Missy - I do hope you mean you have three words beginning with 'p' left!
Peri - fo7/40 - did the race beforehand. fo7/40 - to predict the future.
yes, this isn't scrabble. there's something about 13 words that start with "pa" that is a little daunting -- got all the 6 letter ones, tho.... now to Lickety's clues & monkey-typing as reqd
Hi again, Faerie. Was it you I saw in the log a while ago saying your place is haunted? If so, there's probably nothing to fear. My place is full of animals 'gone before', or used to be. It's been quiet lately, though.
tndaisy, just read your bio, I figured CA is California but where is TN?
I need the 2nd ta 4/4 it has to get the rest of be related to the 5/10 and 6/18 right?
thanks, Jacula, had them, it is the fr7's that I need.
Tennessee, and yes, CA is California...er...Kahleefoinya ;)
Peri - Only one fr7, a 7/40, plural of the fr5 before it.
Peri - Sorry! Plural of the fr6 before it.
Oh yes, didn't think of all those n's and e's and s's! I have been to Calif. though
(Latin for brother/s.)
thanks, Jacula, guess I don't have the right fr5 yes. Haven't checked lickety's list yet,
where in Calif, Wren?
Faerie - 2nd ta4/4: 1. The weight of a container or wrapper that is deducted from the gross weight to obtain net weight. 2. A deduction from gross weight made to allow for the weight of a container. 3. Chemistry. A counterbalance, especially an empty vessel used to counterbalance the weight of a similar container. All the words sound like black sticky stuff on the roads or on flat roofs.
OMG - I should know that one by heart I worked for a trucking company for 14yrs. I know all about the gross weight and ta** weights....pass the fish
My husbands Male choir had a tour there, started in San Fransisco, then Yuba City, Sacramento, Fresno, Porterville, and Los Angeles, (I've missed one out but I can't remember which one)
Peri - for the fr word you seek think of the first 4 letters of the fr****cide word that means the murder of a brother. Failing that, think of an fl** (level surface) and change the 2nd letter.
I think I had it last, don't mind the feathers....
Passes the pa4/5 and pa5/12 over to Faerie.
Eeep! My guy is in Yuba City quite often, for his job...that's still 3 hours away from where I am, but it's alot closer than the UK! lol
Could someone please help me with the ES5/12?
Yuba City is supposed to be the 'Prune' capital of the US isn't it?
Wren, I have NO idea, but I'll ask His Majesty when he gets home! lol
Minski - es5/12 is a Scottish tax, apparently. It was a new word to me, also. The clue that got it for me was, 'You might have to pay for one to accompany you at night. Take out the 'r'.'
LOL
es 5 - old fashioned neckware - change the a to an e. or what you need for a formal night (partner of the opposite sex) drop the r
2nd cr6/21 anyone?
'Prune' capital?? Does that mean they use more toilet paper per capita than anywhere else. Sorry! UK toilet humour. We can't help it!
cr 6, what you put in your pants if you iron them, change the second vowel to the second vowel
Thanks Jac. Joey - I was just about to ask if the ES5 was the word for the old fashioned necktie. Thanks for answering my question before I asked it.
thanks joey
welcome minski, glad to help
cr6 (2nd one) - Sounds like a dairy product you'd put on a sandwich. What is really is is this: A Malayan dagger with a wavy double-edged blade.
anytime peri i listen to my favorite baseball team's games and just hang at the computer for a while in the evening,
only have one of the fe4/7 and its plural (French brother without the first "r")
Jacula, I just now saw your post about the tp! lol I wouldn't be surprised;)
fe = state park entrance fe....
Peri - the other fe4 is charges you may have to pay.
the last fe is a cheese
thanks Joey, and I found the other fe I needed too
Daisy - which post was that?
fo5/18 and fo6/30 anyone?
found the fo5 and fo6 I needed
fo= someone making you do something you don't want to do, and then add a consonent
fo5/18 - brute fo*** might be needed to shift something tough. Or you might be a pilot in the air fo***. fo6 is the one who does the fo5ing.
fo5/16 please
I'm going to turn in now, goodnight all, happy babbling
found the fo5/16 another overlooked plural
fo5 - pl. of fo4/7 before the ran the race beforehand one.
fo 5 - plural of the homonym of what a golfer yells
te 5/10 pretty please
Goodnight, Wren. Sweet dreams.x
fr7/40?
Good Night Wren :)
fo 7,40...any clues?? please
te5/10 - brief, to the point, abrupt.
one te is kind of the world for earth - te double consonent and first vowel
fr7/40 - Latin for brothers. Pl. of the word before it.
ty :)
fo7/40 - ran the rrace beforehand. fo7/40 - predict the future.
i am off, see you at the flip
See ya Joey :)
don't have the first fr6/27
'Bye Joey. I'll probably be in the Land of Nod at the flip (6am here in UK!) I'll be around later though.
ty jacula
evening all once again i am stuck on the darn re's need the re 5/10 pls and ty
Hi Sheryl
Peri - do you have the 5th pa5/12 (Latin for father)? If so, the word you seek ends in the same way, only it's about brothers.
Hi Sheryl. re5/10 - did the race again. re5/10 - view again.

Jacula, just saw your post, yes you are right. I am getting better at this game every day, just wish I was a little more patient with myself. ;)

*teehee* I said a dirty word
Peri - patience with oneself comes with age, I think. I'll let you know when I reach that state of grace. LOL.
Faerie! Control yourself! Swearing like that... mutter, mutter, mutter...
um sorry....just checking to see if it was a real dirty word or not. LOl
What's all that muttering about? Now I've gone all German and am calling for my 'mother'? LOL. No, not a grid word today though.

Faerie - a page or two back now, I think.

sc5/12 - what a striker does in a football match.
When someone gets a goal in a soccer game, the announcer shouts SC5/12
min build off your re 4/5
Sheryl - it's also what a man tries to do with girls and what a drug addict does daily.
FR7/40 = plural of the FR6/27
oops not the first 5/12 the last sorry
Very intresting Jac. My lady is still with me but Babbler was telling me that I HAD to make her go away. She really is no bother other than my dog "Max" gets upset when she shows herself. She is still playing in my jewelry and Now Makeup.
Last sc5 is loose shale, often found down mountainsides.

Peri - which na's do you still need?
Jacula, well I just did my usual thing and found the na5 and na6 I needed 8-)
all three of the re words preceding the underwater re4/7 escape me. Any clue?

Peri - for the na5 ,6 & 7 you seek there is a word pertaining to falling asleep that is the root of them all. Definition is: Numbness; stupor; lethargy.
Jacula, thanks but I now have all the NA words
of5 - more frequently.
thanks, Jacula
Inge - there are 5 're' words preceding the coral barrier.

IN that case take the 1st OR4/4 and change the 3rd letter to a consonent
need help again pls stuck on the tr 4/4 probably will need the fish after too
For the or4 word - if you're not a game player and have not read Lord of The Rings then try this: Think of a killer whale, or**. Then change the last letter to a curly consonant to make a plural.
Minski, got it, thanks
Gee thanks Jacula, I should look up the definitions more often, then I could figure out more plurals. Thanks again.
just found it ty
Faerie. Okay. Talk soon.xx
need help with both tr7/32
There are 2 TR4/4s. ONe grows in your yard and the other one has the same 1st 3 letters as the TR7 just above it.
found one of the tr7 and its singular tr6
I could use help with the re 7/32, the one before running a race again
Both TR7s are the plurals of the TR6s.
tr4/4 - a constant Babble word. 'Tax on wares in transit'. Think of a lovely gift or act, a tr***, and then take out the 2nd vowel.
thats it thats all , you have no more words to find anyone want clues before i go got the new stephen king book and its a good one, want to finish it tonight
RE7/32 = RE + MO5/12

er5/12 and er6/18 pleeze!
*Sighs* I'm 'A Writer' girls! LOL. Such a stupid title. Our art decrees that any more than 2 exclamation marks is over the top, extraneous, not necessary.
ah. got the er5/12.. now onto er 6/18!
my art says the more the merrier!!!!!!!!! the bells doth toll no more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
er6/18 - roving.
Pls what is that ja5/22? Monkey is tired:( ty
daisy: ja5/12 is a country in asia where Memoirs of a Geisha is from!
oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is the expression on my face...total surprise!!!!!!!!!! 8-O
Daisy - ja5 is the name of a country quite like China.
I have located my two missing escapees: the last te 6/18, just above the Latin earth, and pa 6/21, the one after the apple skinning gadget,
omg...*SLAP* ty ty...I told you money is tired...I must be, to have missed that one...
okay, time to bathe and bed, you all have a lovely night!
walnutchen, could you clue me in on er 6/12?
Inge - does that mean you finally have '0 words to find'?
Nut - have a lovely slop and tickle. LOL.
nite nut nite mistress.....going home in about an hour...must finish this "work stuff"
I just need those two 6 ers, then I am done. I expressed myself poorly didnt I?
hopefully we'll get to chitter chatter more tomorrrow
Abe - there is no er6/12?
My post impied that those two words had gotten lost on my records, so I found them. Still dont know what they are though.
just realized that...my brain is mush. less than 20 words...thanks jacula
'Bye Ren. Thanks again to you and Smaller for the cards. Much appreciated.xx
TAking a break, finished or not; my eyes feel like two holes in the snow...bbl if he's not home by then. Ty for all the help, asked for and mooched.
'Bye Daisy.x
Inge - what words are you referring to?
me, too, time, now, away from the computer, 15 left, oh well! brain is MUSH & there's always next time.....
'Bye Missy. 15 to go. You'll do it.
found the te 6/18, now only the pa 6/21
ok, i was trying to ask for es 5/12 before...will trade for other clues!
thx Jacula
Not sure if anyone wants (or is even left in here) to get advice on Babbling now. However, the best method I have found is to find words in no particular order, except for the patterns they make and lead on to, and also to go away and do other things when you hit a wall. I (or more often my Other Half, Paul, who gets up before me) handwrites the grid. So, most of it is done on paper, stream of consciousness etc., with no lists and no clues.
Jacula, I was referring to my 8:15 post, the pa 6 I need is above the talking bird and after the apple skinning gadget.
hi all, ap5,12? i have one, like you are ap*** to do something (lol, i guess that's how you'd use it!)
Inge - pa4/5 - young fish (usually a salmon) under 2 years' of age. Otherwise, think of one of Henry VIII's Wives, one of the Catherines.
that's great advice, jacula. i do the stream of consciousness for the first hour when i'm at work. it gets a lot of words and you can then fill in the blanks
Sorry jacula I have the fish, I need the lpa 6/21 rigth above it.
Abe - did you get the es word yet? If not, think e+someone whose surname begins with a 'Mac' or a 'Mc'.
Inge - pa6/21 above the fish is the plural potato/fruit peeler.
still looking jacula. thanks for your patience/ clues at this hour!
Abe - I'm a night owl, hence my 'nick'. No probs.
I deserve the fish, but I dont like fish. So here I am finished at last, at last at last at last ................
Abe - for the es word - think of a nation that celebrates Hogmanay with Haggis and whisky etc.
First time I've done this today, but Inge derserves it... *~*~*~*~FIREWORKS FOR INGE*~*~*~*~*~*
aha. it was the haggis that did it!
Thansk jacula for your patience. I do usually follow a routine similar to yours, but often itleaves me with 20 to 50 words.
Abe - WELL DONE! A haggis casserole is on its way to you.:-)
mmm, i can't wait. it will go with the chocolate pudding i just brought to the computer
Featherbee - Welcome and thanks for your input! How are you doing with the grid?
Abe - don't spill any of that pudding on your keyboard unless it is one of those very expensive Health Service washable/scrubbable ones!
ok I'm back to find my last word it is an fo but haven't figured out which one yet.
i have a laptop (named bernie) so if anything gets on the keyboard i am in big trouble. the pudding has its own table, away from my elbow
YAY inge! (hi all)
hi stidmama
hi all.... so i thought my vocab would get a lil better but damn, i'm only around 55 and struggling, though i must admit i've been watching tv also. **sigh**
congrats Inge! :)
My friend John fell asleep on my couch so I just covered him up and left him there. He was so tired. He drove 800 miles today.
well three+ hours left and I am still at only 88. But Jac taking a step away helped a tidge.
And a great big weary cannot find words HOWDY to all.
Faerie - you are incorrigible!
hello!
Yes I am
Hi ya Harp :)
Hello eveerybody! I should be packing instead of babbling!
kae babie! how you be!
Hi Harp ( I can call you that today) and other Babble friends, and Babbler'ss friends asleep under blankets. Who needs what now?
jacula, thanks for the welcome! I'm at 105 right now, so doing so-so. Doesn't help that I'm watching tv too. :)
I be good how you b T.
Tamara-I've one word left and trying my best to find it before I ask Jacula to help me. Don't you love her icon.
And I am finished..Thanks for all the clues Jacs :)
crap. I just started. hmmm, I need better classes or you guys need bigger icons *grin*
*Jac sniggers to herself. 'Mick Jaggers left 'plum' has been very helpful in the distraction stakes today.* ROFLOL. If you have the album on vinyl and care to undo the proper copper coloured Levis zip, you will find there's a dull pair of white y-fronts beneath the jeans. No more unveiling allowed. LOL.
Tamara - please how can you miss her icon...You need better glasses for sure hon.
hi everybody! : )
you talking bout my otter? lol
Am just wondering why my Jacs thinks to herself post got a beep!?? Well done, fAERIE. dO YOU WANT *~*~*~*#'S?
haggis *shudder* sorry. reading commentary.
I've got the album and CD Jacs so I know exactly what your talking about. Yes I do. But to look at it most of the afternoon has been very very very nice :)
YAY faeriekae!
is knutmeg around?
Stid I didn't recognize you. Thanks.
first fo 7/40 ?
FAERIE TOOK THE ZIPPER DOWN TO SEE WHAT LAY BENEATH! (None of the rest of us girls did, of course!) *~*~*~*~FIREWORKS FOR FAERIE*~*~*~*
Yes, I got dressed early for tomorrow... Star Trek, you know! :-)
Jacs what did you type that got beeped out I say shitty once in while and get but "thinks" that is strange.
ok, i'm reeeeeeeally slow tonight...just got what jacula's talking about!
LOL Jacs You know you did you can't fid to me. LOL
Featherbee it wasn't your utter oh I mean otter <grin>
Faerie - I'm pretty sure I got beeped for 'thinks'??? Weird!
well finally below the 100 to go mark...........
Tam - if you need clues let us know...
i otter be embarrassed! lol
go bbnaz, go! i'm just cheering you-all on tonight, finished earlier, but mutli-tasking so not going to be quick on clues, I am afraid.
Thats what I thought you said also but how strange. The Babble server is going nutts lately.
Oh believe me, I will scream in a minute. I have the 2 letter list and I am getting all the ones I see and going down through the list.
If it's Star Trek later, does tat cover all series'?
*that
So before my company showed up Jacula you were about to say something about my ghost friend or your ghost pets.
Tamara - many of us are just here to chat and clue now. Ask and you shall receive...
well, it didn't specify, so assumed it covers all series -- I chose to represent DS9...
hmm, either of the ea ones?
featherbee -- if you drop the h from your name... and the insect and the first letter... then plural...
Ah, yes, Faerie. I was going to say that the adice you have been given about telling them whose home it is now is valuable. It often works, should you want to get them to leave. However, your lady is something I'd like to talk about in more depth in private... Are you on MSN Messenger?
ea you sit down to the dinner table to ea* so you are an ea***
wait, nvm! didn't check them off, thought i didn't have them and nothing was working
Oh, Stid, you look so strict and sexy there. LOL.
Yes I am Jacs. Let me give you my MSN address just a sec I just downloaded it a few days ago.
Jacs it should be Kayfaerie@msn.com
wrong it is kayfaerie@hotmail.com
Dear Jac, dinner is now over and I'm back for the last 40 words. Please can you clue me for one pa/5 and one pa/6? I have the hymn of praise, the plural of the kitchen gadget (6), and the Italian form of "park": so what am I missing?
Oops---for p/5 I also have the Latin for father
Thatt's okay Faerie, have now added you and sent an e-mail about MSN Messenger to a total stranger. LOL.
Hello Hetty. I think you need the plural of the Mrs. Henry Tudor! A Catherine.
ROFL
How strange a place the mind is--once my uncrossed eyes saw the Latin for father I realized that like everyone else in the world I had two of them. . .
does anyone have the first fo 7/40?
the one like predicting the future?
clue for the 2nd re 7/32?
i'm stuck on my last one -- the te 6/18 before latin earth -- does anyone have a clue -- please?
re 7/32 --> bitter regret
Of course! There are zillions of these young fish spawning locally every fall just a few miles from us. Bless you.
te6/18 - One who rips.
re 7/32 - you feel re***** when you have done something wrong that you feel bad about now.
thank you :)
Jac -- thanks -- i have that one -- i need the other one :) love the avatar btw. it is a great distraction.
fo 8,55? i know how it should be with points, but am not getting it
fo 8/55 is plural for fo 7/40
brb
it is? i'm still not seeing it! the one 7,40 already uses the plural letter, and the other doesn't end up near it.
Gurugirl - te the 5 before it just add the 2nd vowel on the end
1st te 5/10?
ok, last word . first fo 7/40. not the plural, but the other...
fo 7/40 that the 5/16 before it and add the 2nd se4/4 to it.
faeriekae -- thanks -- but i'm having trouble with that for some reason...the double vowel on the end is coming back to me as an invalid word.
Can anyone clue me on the last na 5/12? I know I'll need the fish afterwards, but it'll be softer than this piece of plywood I have been whacking my forehead with...
te 5/10 te*** cotta
thank you :)
duh. got it :) thanks!!! done!!!
YAY guigrrl!
thank-you-very-much
faeriekae, i think i have that one. i need the one after the 4/7
just one more... the first re 5/10
CONGRATULATIONS GURUGIRL!!!!!
bashes head on keyboard.... still not seeing it!
featherbee - if you have the fo 7, then the 8 is one who fo 7s ? kinda..
featherbee what do you need?
Spork~ re 5/10 they re*** my favorite episode of DS9...
omg, got it, i was trying to work with the other one
yeah congrats featherbee
featherbee --> what you yell when you have hit a very bad golf shot and the ball is headed toward another players direction (sounds like a number) + what you do with your eyes
oh good featherbee!

Congratulations Featherbee!!!!! WHOOT

YAY mightyspork!
CONGRATULATIONS MIGHTY SPORK!!!!!!!!!!

I just read the ENTIRE log for today, gleaning clues and catching up on gossip. you guys have been to freaking chatty today.
Mary, it is multiple people who tattle on drug dealers
na5 - someone who falls asleep at the drop of a hat is nar*******.
Bless you, Mighty Spork!
LOL Tamara - can't believe you read the whole thing. *was there a commercial like that* Yeah this crowd is wild most of the time.
i need some cues please, 12 to go and cant be found, brain dead second ap 5/12 co - 4/8 third da 6/21

My head soooo hurts. And I just figured out that I will not finish this tonight. And I am really okay with that. *sniff*
well done abe
co 4/8 rhymes with opposite of hard
Congratulations ABE!!!!!
YAY abe!
cheers abe, its so simple when you can see it
ap 5/12 more talented at thanks to all for many hints
je 4,9?
you're not joking, scatty. that last fo 7/40 was terrible, but not really...
{{{Tamara}}} hugs and clues will get you through.
Is my new 7 of 9 icon showing now, ready for Star Trek day? LOL.
tamara -- it's okay to not finish a grid like this one... how far are you anyway? though if you want to try, plenty of us can clue!
I have that AP...It is th eother one that is eluding me.
dammit, did it again
gotta learn to check off before i try for a word!
Jacs you are so ready LOL
featherbee, the most common fabric you wear (trousers)
yes Jacula -- a little hard to see (my eyes are just not finding much detail in anyone's icon these last few days), but definitely not boy parts anymore!
ap5/12 - separate from. ap5/12 - more suitable.
Tamara could be the 2nd ap 5/12 ap + cross + 2nd vowel + r
Stidmama and Jacula look like school teachers..with sticks behind thier backs just read to whack ya if you get out of line.
Stid - the main part of my own 49-yr-old body that is pissing me off is my eyes, too. Glasses on or off? Who knows? GRR!
duh. I worked all around that one...thanks Jac. I think my eyes are just tired. I work with small numbers and a computer all day and then I come home and want to do this. I must bea masochist.
jacula, is that a shadow on your icon or do the trousers fit closely
Scatty, I'm so glad someone as smart as you has had trouble with fo/7 and fo/8 (which probably pluralizes it, but I can't find IT. Did you ever get it? Can you share please?
good nite all-got 117 words-can`t find anymore of to bed i go-til tromorrow
Scatty, LOL. I think I need a waxing weekend. LOL.
majmom -- well done! first grid, wasn't it? see you tomorrow!
Well done, Majmom. See you again.
found the ap, chees first er 5/12 fo 8/55 first pa 5/12 second pa 5/12
Blinking heck, Stid. Just seen our icons together. They do look pretty scarey, don't they?
first er 5/12: to construct; to stand "straight"
*grin* the power of WOMAN!
good night to all. good luck with the grid. anyone need any last minute hints?
WhipLASH! sTID'S FIRST CLUE. roflol. Oh, sorry, Stid, just couldn't resist that.
the first four letters are the same as the 4 + what you do with your eyes the 8 has a letter after q on the end
night abe, sleep tight
pa 5/12: pa + two more vowel + single hump consonant
hi everyone re 7/32 - the one not meaning regret?
good night abe
evening kids! how goes it?
if someone finds a bra pic, the three together would look pretty good lol
scatty, what did you just say? what Q?
re7/32 - regret.
hi evil! the re 7 builds off the 6 which builds off the 5 which builds off the four...
hetty, that clue was for you just now
re7 - Church of Englancd vicars.
cr 7/44
hi kristinc! :-)
cr7/44 is a Scottish farmer.

my eyes are crossing and my brain is not working....anybody help with re5/12, first 2 re6/21 and the first re7/32...Please....
it's the theme for tomorrow, actually, star trek. Kira Nerys has that effect on all people with a guilty conscience! :-)
re5/12 - right-hand page of a book.
tamara, the fo clue, the fo 7/40 (first four letters same as the fo4+ what you do with your eyes the fo8/55 is the same + letter after a q on the end
finished, thanks everyone for your help, just couldn't see them
oooh star trek...might have to partake if I have time..good times. Jac-star trek for you too?
Thank you all for the fun and the clues. I concede to the masters who have completed! Later Folks!
Thanks, Scatty, I got the clue--tho my eyes won't read the sequence on the grid--nevertheless it worked and i thank you for it. But I still don't get how to add another letter, since the letter after "q" doesn't appear anywhere ????
YAY scatty!
1st re6/21 - Church of England vicar.
thanks guys. the re's are giving me a hard time!
re7/32 - deep regret.
hetty, you know this one! abc.... lmnop, q "?" s...
na 6,21 or 7,32 or 5,12? i have the 5,12 that is the plural of the 4,5
the fo 8: fo 4 + se 4
hetty, the alphabet, i mean
na 6/21 is plural of the previous na 5
jacula...i found deep regret-the other one is the one I'm missing.
the na 7 adds a vowel to the na 6/21
hetty, if i say after q, it means in the alphabet, not on the grid
featherbee -- the na 5/12 you are missing might be the na 4 + round vowel...
that's the na5 i'm missing
Gotcha! One needs to become a child again
bingo! got em all once i had that na5
Going to bed now. Good night folks .SEe ya tomorrow.

y/w Nandre.
i'm sorry guys, i keep making stupid mistakes when asking for clues, and you're all so helpful about it! i meant to say the first pa5,12
I'm missing one ra/4, anyone? I have the shouting and the ****ure and the fee charged for a service--blessed if I can see another ra**
*nanrde.
1st pa 5/12?
yep
1st pa5/12 - 3. An ancient Greek hymn of thanksgiving or invocation, especially to Apollo.
hetty do you have the ra4/9 indian prince
thanks jac and google!
thanks Jax!
LOl, feather!
No Scatty, I didn't, and now I do. Now I'm off with him to find us an elephant.Ta muchly
have you found it Hetty
bring one back for me, a prince, not an elephant, the gardens not big enough
Hetty - as far as I know, pachyderm has not been a grid word yet. Good luck in going off to find one! xx
Hve I missed anyone asking for clues? I think I may have done.:(
33 to go and don't think I will finish tonight.
BB - I think you may have tried to go it alone for far too long today. Ask for clues now, in earnest!
down to 43 left
you haven't been gone long enough jacula,not many people asking for clues tonight
okay FO 7,40 FO 5,16 FO 7,40 FO 8,55 how's that for starters!
Scatty - I'd been gone since about 1.30pm UK time!
not asking for clues, cuz dont know how many im missing....what's the count for tonight?
jacula - how far are you from Oxford
198 mark
Just to keep you busy, Jac, have you a tip for na/5 12? I have the sleepy one yawn yawn
thx Kristin....im right at the halfway mark then
Scatty - no idea without checking a map. My village is 10 miles from Birmingham.
you can do it! 42 for me and I can clue when/if I finish
i will need plenty of help but still hammering away here. got the FO 5
you have been around for the last half hour though, since i've been on, is work busy tonight or are you home
i think it takes about an hour from here, there aren't any engeneering jobs up there are there, hubby still looking for work.( since begining of Jan )
I think the distance is rouglhyl 112 miles, as I recall from going out on the road with my other half.
god, my spelling is getting worse
okay only need the FO 8 on that last set of clues
Scatty - what kind of engineer is he?
I ask that last q seriously.
fo8/55 - one who sees the future.
TYVM Jac. I was using the wrong consonant.
Scatty - where I live, or near to it, the major Midland car factory died recently. T'was a long death, but it's gone now.
Jac, my pachyderm may never forget the way but he refuses to take me back to my birthplace near Brum. He also reminds me to remind you Iam seeking help with na/5 12, please
engineering to do with aircrafts, just looking at his cv
na5/12 - plural of the sleep disease starter.
na5/12 - plura; police informers.
Scatty - had you asked me that back in the 70s, I would have lead you to Lucas Aerospace where my Dad worked.
I don't think that either the Hall Green or the Solihull plants are still working full tilt now. However, tell him to try Lucas Aerospace.
Jacula - this is what he has in his cv aircraft related engineering, advising on maintenance policy, procedures, equipment, spares forecasting and procurement.Responsible for training, health and safety, quality assurance and technical standards of 70 personnel
he joined up in the 70's
Scatty - the only space in the workplace I can stil see for him is Lucas Aerospace. Just based on my own experience though.
You're such a help, Jac. Now could you find for me a way of cracking of/5? It must be another slang term methinks
of5/16 - more frequently!
i'll get him to have a look, cheers, he didn't think it was going to be so hard finding a job, but when you have been doing the same thing for 30 years, its quite hard to adapt
Think Shakespeare.
first RA (not the one were you are raving)
nevermind got it
of + crossed letter + curly+hook
hi all, anyone have any clues for the last re 6/21?
2nd cr6?
nevermind, got it thanks
TE 6,18 TE 5,10 the final two of the TE words
Last re6/21 - a sort of have it done again haircut.
re = same as the second mo5/12
***GASP*** did anyone else notice that scatty said a word? AAAAIIIIIIEEEEEE! (mwah, ha ha ha ha !)
sorry
Hard not to do with this grid!! Hi, scatty!
Hi JBs
JBS - 'Mwah!' is NOT an allowed word! LOL.
I've got my head down with printouts, and word lists on the screen, and trolling the chat for clues every now and then. I've got 80 words left to go. Loving the word runs with the er's and the plurals!
down to 26, and finished my first pass of the word list...going back now, i'm sure i'll be asking for clues!
Hi, JAC!!! So, you would prefer "mwbah, ha ha ha ha?"
bbnes - te6 - same as word above add second vowel to the end
JBS - I would prefer to dodge any of those false kissy things. thank you!
Besides, scatty, I look for your bee 'cuz you give GREAT clues!
And I am going off to kip now.
bbneslast te5 - te + hook +snake + 2nd vowel
ar 5/10 ? (fishy word?)
No, no NO NOOOO, Jac - no kisses! Just {{{hugs}}}. It's supposed to represent evil laughter, like when the mad scientist reveals his dastardly plan right before he gets foiled again...
i changed the bee the other day and couldn't find my own clues so i put it back
im missing a da6 (i think)...this is what i've got: da4/5 da5/12 da6/21 da4/5 da6/21 da7/32 da4/5 da5/12 da 6/21
well then that means I need the 6 and 5 above it as I have that one.....grrrrrrrr but thanks!
LOL, scatty!
Bye, JAC!
Later Jacula.
mark, you need the 6/21 da = something you throw ( game on wall) or shoot from a gun + long letter + 2nd vowel
O.K. gals. You and Shakespeare to the rescue, as so oft is the case in the stilly night. Last 30 to go.
bye jac
ar 5/10 anyone?
ah HA!! never seen THAT word before!! thx... :)
I agree with mark! TY, scatty!
Kristin~ ar 5/10 ar + cross letter + 'the' en espanol
bbnes do you have the te5 = an orangy colour te+ double hook + 1st vowel
the second cr6,21 or cr 7,44?
thanks marymary, cute kitty!
the cr7/44 is a scottish farmer
Thanks! Not mine, but looks like my Henri (as does your avatar!)
feather- arts & cr*** (change the a to an o), add one who does it for the 7
TYVM Scatty. Now just the TE 6 following that one
mary, this is one of my spoiled kitties
cr 6 = cr+ double 2nd vowel +snake + 2nd vowel
bbnaz add 2nd vowel
ahh, thank you! i had seen that scottish farmer clue before, had no idea where to go with it
bbnez to the end of the word
scatty, I keep trying the same thing and it doesn't work (for the te6)
Again, hearty thanks now off to hammer at those pesky er and re words.........
scatty-got it! nevermind
i cant find the 2 er5's... help please?
mark-one is to build (or stand up straight)
well one is the flower
how about da 6,21? i have the three that go in a set of 3 da words, if that makes sense.
the flower?
MB~ er 5/10 is an ro 4/4 with an 'e' up front
thx Kristin...got it...but dont know the flower
if it smells like a r*** it must be a r***
ah ha....thx
ER 6 please and mark er + 4th vowel + snake + second vowel
featherbee - da = what you throw onto a circular thing on the wall (game) +2nd vowel + hook or da** same as above but the last two letters are different - fifth letter before m +2nd vowel
feather~ the one you're missing starts like the 2nd da 4/5 and rhymes with startle
bb-a variation of trial and er*** (go up from the bottom right e)
mark, a ro** bush, prickles on the stems, smells nice, loads of colours
the fourth ro/4 anyone?
thanks mary!
anytime!
have that bottom e already.....it is the ER 6 that is next to last of the "ER" words
bbnez er6 = er+ hook + 1st vowel +letter after m+crossed letter
Hetty~ 4th ro 4 is to do something almost automatically- "by ro**"
bb-okay, then a lower e, sorry to confuse you, the key is to go up to the left (rhymes with parent)
a knight is sometimes described as "er****" esp. if he's missing
bbnez yes, the 6 is the second to last er
ahhhh the knight clue helped solidify the trial and Er clues. Thank you both very much!
how many left bbnez
good bb-sorry to confuse you if I did
kristinc, how far along are you
okay, I am brain-dead but want to finish out my r's. I have all the ra's except the first, right before ra** & rave. Help?
hetty, are you ok, you have gone really quiet
okay, very confused. according to the lists, I have every variation of "f" accounted for but the grid says I am missing one.........I think I am going to shoot myself.
scatty--word hunting or pregnancy? (facing both right now)
ra = indian prince
bb-before you do anything drastic, did you refresh?
anyone want to give a little help with the other j, not the country
et4?
THX!!!! I kept looking at that Indian king and thinking I should be able to make something out of him! Pass the fish, please.
yep and i am cooling a bit as it took that nasty f away. now to hammer at those pesky RE stinkers
Nat, a singular pair of pant ( je** and t-shirt)
MB~ think Mt. Et**
Think life insurance company without the first vowel on the front
Natl, half a pair of blue je***
nat = je, what most people wear (trouser wise) fabric( very tough and hard wearing
re 6,18 or the re6,21 that is below it?
oh, someone hand me the fish
nat-fish from the bbq tonight coming your way!
re+ got up again, and re+ prune a bush

ooh missyem, no words in the log please
Oy. Missy what did you just do!
I'm O.K., thanks Scatty, just had to deal with callers. Back to business I 'll clarify my request for ro/4 . I have the ro** that comes automatically when you've learned by continual practice, the flower that Gertrude Stein immortalized (like Blake), the fish eggs, and the French stones. There's another lurking somewhere in the grid, but where?
uh oh...someone's in trouble
Dunno but it was like the scene from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. The fountain is through the window and I fear it is on my behalf.............
Hetty~ ro + cross letter + tall thin line letter

No worries- it happens!
re words from from the top 5/12 = re+letter after b + crossed letter +4th vowel 6/21 same as above +add hook 7/32 same as above + add snake 6/21 same as 5/12 + snake
peeking up timidly to ask one final RE....the very last RE 5,10 which is between the two final RE 6 words (re+flower and re+shorten)
the last te5,10 please?
scatty thanks for the one I didn't have (I am SOOO RED right now)
It's like realizing the email in which you were sharing something private about your boss went to the *whole* employee list, and NOT your mom!
BB- to peer at again, to view anew...
Ah Mary thanks! kinda like the candy but different ;~)
feather- to be short with someone- rhymes with an R.N. or L.P.N.
re = re + letter after (r) +2nd vowel twice
BB- well put!
im missing one of the fo7's...i've got the prognosticator
marymary--such a good clue. and such a crazy word. I just can't wait to use it! Ta and LOL
