12:56 am

12:57 am

Well, lack of sleep and blurry vision is making bedtime more desirable than getting any more words at this point, so I'm going to take my 51 words, and my 3 gray boxes to bed to dream of fireworks for finishing this later. Good night, everybody, Babble on!

12:57 am

Hello

12:59 am

1:00 am

1:02 am

sa 5/12=rabbit food

1:02 am

ive got 5 ks

1:02 am

only you replace the -ing with a -e and take the plural / action, too.

1:02 am

I actually had the 5, didn't get the plural

1:02 am

Hmm, I still have one left in that corner!

1:03 am

did you get the fish word?

1:03 am

Juice, it doesn't seem too hard yet, I am stalling at 103 words, and only have used about ten clues from the log.

1:03 am

maddison fish word starting with what letter?

1:04 am

yeah, that one was a monkey-typing. lemme find the defintion of it real fast

1:04 am

uh, it's a large Madagascarian lemur. hope that helps. ;)

1:04 am

hiya lib

1:29 am

laise

damn

1:29 am

i was looking in the wrong direction

1:29 am

kinda like Hall and *****, only the last letter's the only 1-pt. letter next to where you stop at.

hiya librebel - i'm stuck @ 86 words. i'm trying to become a morning person. it's rained for 12 days here - my garden is swamped.

1:30 am

anyway, see everyone tomorrow. at some point.

1:30 am

OK, I'm over the halfway point -- 125 gone -- and I'm going to bed.

1:31 am

I'm starting to see stuff like "tundra" and "tendril", so I have no shot of doing anything more with the board as of now.

1:31 am

helenkeller-- the server is really weird-- cursor change is a delayed reaction

yeah i was wishing on tundra & tendril - not gonna happen (sigh)

1:32 am

good night shadeeagle

yeah - that must be it -:)

good nite shade :)

94 - can i get to 100 b4 i turn in????

foal

1:33 am

I am more than halfway... feeling pretty good about my chances for finishing this one LOL!

d'oh!-

down

1:33 am

so, it's easy to post words in the wrong place...

1:33 am

ty melonhead... feeling even better about my chances now!

1:33 am

like foal

stop that!

oy vey!

1:34 am

it's been my downfoal...

1:34 am

heh

ow! ow!

well this has gone right down the t 6/18

1:36 am

melonheadjujube-- same here w/ waterlogged garden :)

1:36 am

ooh-- sorry; puns can be painful...

i have flats that are waiting. today was actually nice, but i keep the sabbath rather strictly...hoping for tom'w

1:37 am

ty again melonhead... I will trade you a few square yards of my dry clay for some of your wet...

as i once heard, were i puished for every pun i shed...

oh, clay we have. i've worked tons of perlite 7 manure into it (sister has a horsey)

i have a sib in chicago - the soil there looks like day old devilsfood cake. like an idiot i asked, "where's you get the dirt?" "from the ground." oh.

1:39 am

I would love some horse poo for my garden! :-) it would be a really good help... but don't have a truck for hauling.

1:39 am

oh man -- my soil will look like that by the time I have grandchildren (note my elder only just became a teen recently...) may it be another fifteen years or more...

cow doo bettr, but horse doo is less pungent. best from th eyear old pile at the stable. we gardeners are a bunch....

perlite is really good stuff. lightweight, doesn't break down, bt does break up the soil.

lol melon - i live in chicago - that's very funny - most of my soil is very good, but there is some clay, here & there - but not much

1:41 am

chickenpoo works really well

1:41 am

aren't we though! I can talk garden, flowers... all day long. Not happy with my fruit trees though, I just found peach leaf curl on my last good peach tree. Will have to hand pull the bad leaves this year and s/pray a lot to see if it makes it to next year... the nectarine and the other peach have to go though.

1:41 am

whew! talk about pungent, though!

loam is the official soil of the state of Illinois, so i hear

1:41 am

haven't tried pigeonpoo; very abundant in the city...

fruit trees stid - i'm impressed!

official soil - lol

liba, what about Canada geese - yow.

1:42 am

or seagullpoo...

for real HK, my sis told me.

1:42 am

we have about half an acre for garden, the other half is still mostly treed... but under the half inch of topsoil is all clay.

we had that very bad hailstorm a couple of days ago, so many baby pears, apples & grapes on the ground :(((

melon - where is your sister at?

1:43 am

and I wanted my children to experience real fruit of many types when they were little... we planted trees before we started painting the bedrooms!

1:43 am

oh, melonheadthose geese are misplaced, poor thing, but they sh** lie dogs, which fact makes them unwelcome...

well, it seems you have your priorities striahgt stid :)

i rent, but nice landlord let's me garden, the vegs are just a 6 ft dia circle in the front yard, its the sunniest location - i paid to have a stump removed. spinach is coming up, bunies got to the lettuce. bloodmeal s/discourage them.

1:44 am

oh- hail is bad -- I am so glad it's rare here. I am really hoping for some apples this year from my tree, and I know we'll get lots of plums and quince again. I just love them.

1:45 am

hello everyone

liba here's a piece of - - trivia. there is a lacquer called 'merde doie" which is french for....

1:45 am

a firstimer here....lol

hi windd

1:45 am

bunnies are real garden terrorists -- but they're too cute to really be angry. I just let the dogs roam around a lot and they seem to keep away from most of the plants.

1:45 am

hey, let's all just talk sh**!

oops 'merd d'oie' left out an apostriphe

1:46 am

this game is very addciting! hI WINDDANCER

welcome wind :)

1:46 am

Hi winddancer, have you seen angelsong's resource page yet? there's a link in the "friends of babble" at the bottom of the page. She has lots of great hints and links that help.

1:46 am

hi Cat! how you doing?

1:47 am

hi stidmama...txs...i have not yet...just got here...just heard about this site from a game buddy in literati in yahoo

stid - bloodmeal keeps m away. i cen finally grow peas (pea shoots are bunny candy)

1:47 am

melonhead.. hmm...sh** of doie?? --got me??

1:48 am

now deer are another thing... I spray a concoction of egg and chili pepper in water... they hate it and it's not permanent. and my trees survive :-)

98 - whew -

1:49 am

with dogs, raccoons and bear, I am afraid to use bloodmeal...

1:49 am

go melonhead go! :-)

oie - goose. goosesh** green - it's a near black lacquer used on harpsichords.

1:49 am

sh** happens... (ducking projectiles)

hurling a bunny slipper at my monitor - DUCK!

1:50 am

*quack quack*

uh-oh - i was just going to stop, but i see i have 100 left - this is what i had last night & didn't get a chance to finish

1:51 am

HELEN -- go to sleep.... go to sleep.... my sister in law had her baby Thursday, so someone in Chicago needs the sleep, you might as well take it! LOL

99.....

lol

1:52 am

Watch ur language LIBRABEL! (~.~)

1:52 am

*waits in breathless anticipation for melonhead's next word*

& i am tired, spend the day with step son & his partner looking for new puppy for them - found a tiny baby girl pom - what a cutie!

tile

1:52 am

arrrrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhhhh

1:53 am

guess that was melonhead's next word! ROFL

101

don't urt yrself stidmama.... ;)

1:53 am

ti**---- ooh tile!

1:54 am

*owie owie owie* ;-) my sides hurt from laughing so much!

1:54 am

manure happens...

hey at least it was a plain old word - why it took me 99 to get it...

guano happens.

1:54 am

there is really a delayed reaction w/ the transferring of the cursor from the answer box to the chat!! really!!

1:55 am

oh my, it's 3am and I really need to get to sleep

1:55 am

in my yard, strawberries happen! as long as the dogs stay out of the flowerbeds.... I have so many just waiting for a few warm sunny days. I want strawberries for my b-day!

1:55 am

morning stid, how are you getting on

1:55 am

and then, of course, guano happens... :)

1:55 am

nrkii! didn't know you were still on! go to sleep! play tomorrow!

1:56 am

hi scatty! was telling my mother about you today -- and how grateful I am for all the lovely people here so my children can babble too...

i'm stopping @ 101.....goodnight all, lilah tov, buona notte, etc....

1:56 am

stid, how do you keep the slugs at bay

1:56 am

stid, I turned off chat for a bit so i could plow through words without getting distracted (and wetting my pants laughing)

1:56 am

we've been talking gardens...

1:56 am

night melonhead

1:57 am

I have 96 left, and I can't keep my eyes open, so with that, good night all!

1:57 am

for mollusks (we also have snails, sigh) I use "Sluggo" it's an iron phosphate that is toxic to mollusks and fish, but not apparently to mammals and birds.

1:57 am

good night nrkii! see you tomorrow!

I did gardening today... I threw the cat out the back door and she ripped my pot plant to pieces to spite me! I guess the cat did the gardening...!

1:58 am

nrkii, no wonder you are tired, go to bed

1:58 am

good night melonhead --

1:58 am

ummm.. mrp -- in the US "pot plant" refers to marijuana... do you mean plants in pots?

1:58 am

mrpresident, my boxer loves to nose in newly potted plants

oh dear! of course I do!

2:00 am

mrpresident-- did you see bonkler's flat cat?

2:00 am

i need the weather to perk up so i can plant out, my greenhouse is very green at the moment, if i don't plant out soon, they are all going to flower

welcome back you crazy cat !!!

2:00 am

i need the weather to perk up so i can plant out, my greenhouse is very green at the moment, if i don't plant out soon, they are all going to flower

2:00 am

2:00 am

2:00 am

stidmama, do you have slug problems over there

I didn't see it! What did I miss! Hi Helen!!

2:01 am

Some years very bad, this year so far not so terrible but we haven't had much rain this last month.

2:01 am

Bonkler went pro and used a funny icon of his cat...

2:02 am

I don't have many plants to put in at the moment, just a couple of artichoke I haven't decided where to put...

2:02 am

looks flat as the proverbial pancake-- very funny

2:02 am

plus it's really his cat iggy

2:03 am

like a flonder...

2:03 am

flounder

2:04 am

2:06 am

helena, where are you from

2:06 am

2:06 am

hello helena

2:06 am

scatty..melbourne!

Things are good helena... dry as a bone, but good! and you ??

2:09 am

2:09 am

i tried that stid,i don't know what i was doing wrong but i couldn't get a flag

2:10 am

oh that's right because it's nearly winter for you!

2:10 am

i'll look at the site mentioned

2:11 am

Scatty -- there was some sort of problem at first with UK and Canada addresses, but I think it's fixed now... you might try again if you have time and interest.

Nice changes too... did you see Lickety's clue page? Nice new addition too! Winter hasn't been here for about 15 years now!! the weather is almost tropical now!

2:11 am

if you can get the flag to work helena, let me know, step by step how you did it please

2:12 am

will do, will look later, i'd better get started on the k's, see you later

2:12 am

I have 112 words to go... pretty tired, but interested in the chat (and watching Saturday Night Live with Tom)

2:12 am

mr.p we are still in summer gear up here (qld) and winter is only a couple of weeks away!

2:12 am

2:16 am

how do i get my flag back?? lost it since the changes

2:16 am

I am down in the lower southeast part, just up from the border... about 5 hours drive

2:17 am

I ask because in the US California is really long. The north has weather very much like ours in the Puget Sound region, the south is really tropical.

2:17 am

I think you just need to go back into your account settings, helenary.

2:18 am

we are exp very tropical weather at the moment. My town is usually vvvv cold in winter

I love the sunshine coast of QLD... it is where I wanna go when I have my sea change!!

Vermont doesn't tend to grow much-which is great environmentally and in terms of natural beauty, but also rough economically, and a lot of young people are moving away because they can't find work

flooded north shore of MA - Ipswich

Morning everyone. Please say a prayer for my Grandson. A guy ran right into his Harley yesterday and he slid 300 feet and the bike 400. He is in the hospital now, we know broken hand for sure, stitches in head and not sure about the knee. Thanks all!!

6:43 am

i'm actually in a town that neighbors Laconia. close to Gunstock ski area.

6:44 am

That's bad, rumple, so sorry to hear that. My prayers go with him and you.

6:44 am

rumple....i'll say a few of them :(

Oh Rumple!! hope he mends quickly !! that is awful for him! hope his head is ok too!!

rumplestiltskin-that's just terrible. I'll be sure to keep him in my thoughts.

6:46 am

gee that's terrible, hope he's ok. People still don't see the bikes, look driver, look rider.

6:47 am

our motto in my area is "save a life - look both ways twice"

We are very careful of bike riders and try and let everyone else be aware! thats is a good motto cliff!

6:51 am

well i'd better get at my list of chores that i put off yesterday. have to make cookies to send off to my son and somehow do spring cleaning before going to a graduation party. good luck with the grid everyone.

cliff, sure you won't need the bulldozer I'd need to accomplish spring cleaning. Have a great day.

6:53 am

have a great day :)

6:54 am

bbl

6:55 am

oh - i almost forgot. i spent all afternoon uploading pics yesterday to 'flickr.com' - if you want to see my furry children go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/cliffopa/ (the site is also in my profile)

good morning can anyone please tell me how many words there are today

7:03 am

246, bev

thank you very much

seal

sorry

7:05 am

hehe, np, happens all the time.

7:09 am

clues for 7 or 8 please.......

7:14 am

hi, i'm new here...can someone tell me why the same letter appears more than once in tile stats?

7:15 am

Welcome! Because they appear more than once in the grid itself, probably.

7:16 am

um...i'm not sure i understand...

7:17 am

The tile stats are arranged in the same order as the tiles of the grid itself. Each letter in the stats refers to a tile on the grid. So the E in the middle upper row says there are 2 words, starting with that specific E.

It tells you the how many words begin with the first letter on the grid... so from the top left there are 6 words that begin with that N... at the bottom right there are 5 words that begin with the N down there

7:18 am

oh! thanks! :c)

7:25 am

clues..clues..clues...please........

7:25 am

Yes, thanks! I hadn't quite thought that out...

7:26 am

nogie, if you scroll down, there are lots of clues in the log already.

7:29 am

cliffopa, love your pics on Flickr!! :-)

7:29 am

just got one clue sprite..thanx anyway.. :)

7:30 am

nogie: next to the tabs above the chat window, there are 2 icons. The upper right one opens the entire chatlog in a separate window. Lots and lots of clues :)

7:31 am

Just popped in to say hi and bye...am off to Guernsey for a few days,,not going to attempt this one

7:31 am

Have fun, Kallia :)

7:31 am

thank you I am sure I will...just hope the weather improves

7:32 am

thanx sprite...sure it'll be ofhelp :)

7:35 am

morning everyone

7:36 am

morning, saphyre! I see that you're in MD--my daughter's heading to College Park in 2 weeks for grad school!

7:37 am

about 30 minutes from me

7:38 am

i live on the chesapeake bay western shore

7:38 am

sounds beautiful

7:39 am

it's nice - small town - sidewalks get rolled up at 9 every night :)

7:39 am

OK, if no one else is gonna do the Dallas theme today, I'm getting rid of JR! :-)

7:39 am

Hi Pat, how are you doing today?

7:39 am

I have enough dalles of myself in life ;)

7:40 am

lol - never was into that show

7:40 am

MD will be a big change for her--she's been in the NC mountains for several years--but she and her boyfriend will still find plenty of places to hike and ride bikes, right?

7:40 am

oh definitely

7:42 am

Uninteresting for most of you, but monumental for myself: just finished the Ks!

7:42 am

OK, I've changed to my mom's sweet Derby

7:42 am

and walking the shore of the bay finding shark teeth is always fun

7:42 am

and it's nearby?

7:43 am

about 30 minutes or so from college park I guess

7:43 am

excellent!!

no, that's pretty huge, sprite. they are driving me krazy:)

7:45 am

Happy Sunday all! Had to step in here for this convo... Une, there are tons of trails to ride in the greater D.C. area... if she checks out the Washington Post online, she should be able to find out about a lot.

7:45 am

i have 7 of the 9 k's

7:45 am

cool--thanks, Jen!

7:45 am

dc is within 30 minutes also

7:45 am

I just hate K-words. Well, at least this time they are all rather common. Do you have the big Ks, saphyre? 6/33 and 7/48?

7:45 am

and annapolis too

7:46 am

yes i have both of those

7:46 am

right--I've already told her we're heading straight to the National Gallery when I come visit! :-)

7:46 am

there is plenty to do in this area so she won't be bored

7:47 am

My last K was K4/8: to make a sweater.

7:47 am

how many k's are there pls?

7:47 am

Thanks, Sprite, that's the last one I needed as well... Hellow everyone!

7:47 am

9 Ks.

7:47 am

hmmm my list says i have all nine but the tile stats say i only have 7

7:48 am

Hey Jera :)

7:48 am

duh..i coulda loked at the grid i guess..*slaps self*

7:48 am

lol rolin... still not used to being pro? ;)

7:48 am

Did you try refresh, saphyre? The site is rather buggy since all the changes.

7:48 am

keas

7:48 am

oh, I know there's lots to do--she and her boyfriend are up for just about anything and enjoy exploring--they just want to be sure there's "nature" close by :-)

7:49 am

4 ke's 4 ki's and a kn right?

7:49 am

bugger

7:49 am

I have had a great weekend... got sunburned yesterday & my ranking is shot, but had a great time "back home."

7:49 am

Right on the dot.

7:49 am

i'll try refreshing again

7:49 am

where did you go, jera?

7:49 am

Hi Jera - My ranking is shot too. What did you do yesterday?

7:50 am

Perhaps force-refresh, with alt.

7:50 am

I'm trying to decide if I have time to play today or not.

7:50 am

Just don't spoil too much time deciding and start playing ;)

7:51 am

off to walk the dogs (and dragging Shelby out since it's started thundering and she's already hiding!)

7:51 am

maybe i should log out and back in - be back

7:51 am

We have WalkAmerica for the March of Dimes today and then worship service after that. If I'm going to play I need to get started and get it done before I leave.

7:51 am

Hehe, wise dog, knows when not to go outside!

7:52 am

Wen to the annual hometown Spring festival in the town where we used to live... it was great seeing everyone. I had the Girl Scout booth & we sold lots of stuff that the Girls had made... they were thrilled!

7:52 am

morning! is today's grid easier than yesterday's?

7:52 am

how fun, jera!!

7:52 am

{{{Jera}}} :)

7:52 am

{{JEN}}

7:52 am

Yey! jera that sounds like fun. We had Court of Awards Friday night and Sarah did her rappelling training for 8 hours yesterday.

7:53 am

Hannah and I hung out in the State Park hiking while Sarah was up on the cliffs. Then we played cards with friends last night

7:53 am

I also signed up several new Girls, which is always a thrill for me... I LOVE talking up Girl Scouts! I also got to meet an official tpe person from Council who had heard about me! *blush*

7:53 am

Jen!! Hi how are you?

7:53 am

One could start today with typing in random babblets. There are lots of them in the grid today!

7:53 am

Oh wow, mm, that sounds fun! Now do you guys still meet in the summer or is COA goodbye?

7:54 am

That is great Jera! I forgot to get the Indian Lore stuff for you. I have put you on my to do list and will get it this week.

7:54 am

Oh , don't worry about it, mm... I found your council's website & snagged all I need!

7:54 am

The Girls looked over the badges but they still want to earn the old one as well.

7:54 am

I am SOOO sorry. I was at the Field Center twice for the COA and still forgot. UGH! I have to go down Tuesday again.

7:55 am

Excellent! I didn't realize it was on the site.

7:55 am

Also your insects & myster, underground railroad ones. Maybe aquaculture.

7:56 am

Yes we will meet all summer. We are planning a sleepover at the lodge at Rocky Cliffs (?) to visit and plan iwth another cadette troop.

7:56 am

Also will go start gazing in August to watch the meteor showers.

7:56 am

Swim party and at least one more ceramics workshop.

7:56 am

The underground railroad one is very good.

7:57 am

I'm good MM... you?

7:57 am

Okay. I need to go put dinner in the crockpot. I'll be back to examine this grid and possibly play in a little bit.

7:57 am

We want to do a ceramics workshop as well. They earned most of the badge at school, which made me happy. So we're planning a trip to Clay Cafe to tie up lose ends. Probably tiles

7:57 am

Later, mm

7:57 am

I'm excellent Jen. Spent all day outside in the fresh air yesterday and am doing a 5 mile walk today.

7:58 am

Tiles are good Jera. We are doing Christmas Tree ornaments to sell at our craft booth.

7:58 am

I can't believe I forgot to put sunscreen on my ears! Ouch!

7:58 am

I wanna make a chessboard!

7:59 am

cleared temp files closed browser restarted computer - still showing that i only have 7 K's

7:59 am

I HATE sunburned ears! I got 'em last time I played golf... it was painful.

7:59 am

I hate sunburned ears too. I always forget my ears and the tops of my feet.

7:59 am

A chessboard would be very cool.

7:59 am

Okay. Be back soon

7:59 am

You'd think I'd learn by now. At least I kept my hat on so my scalp didn't burn... now that hurts!

7:59 am

Darn saphyre. And log out/log in does not change it either?

8:00 am

no

8:00 am

Sounds like a job for Dr_God, saphyre...

8:00 am

Indeed.

8:01 am

i wonder if the other stats are right - i'll have to check

8:01 am

all the others seem to be ok... how odd

8:02 am

I had something like that, yesterday. I had entered 'azide', but it did not show up in the list. Re-entering the word gave the "you already entered this" message. But after a while somehow the word had appeared in the list yet.

8:03 am

yes that has happened to me before also, but the tile stats always seemed to work

8:03 am

Must be some kind of bug. Don't know if DrG is open to bugs, but it sounds like something he should know about.

8:04 am

just use the send message at the bottom?

8:04 am

That should work fine.

8:06 am

hiya

8:06 am

hi hannah

8:06 am

hi sprite how u doin ?

8:07 am

Wah, latin is invalid

8:07 am

Must be capitalised, Jera.

8:08 am

I am fine, hannah, and you?

8:08 am

okay i sent the message - but i keep looking thinking i should find two more because it isn't grayed out :)

8:08 am

im good fankoo

8:09 am

hiya jera

8:09 am

Hey, I keep trying to find k words & my boxes ARE grayed out...

8:09 am

Hey hannah lou how are you today/

8:09 am

lol jera

8:10 am

K-words do that to you. They are sooooooo bad.

8:10 am

jera im good ui

8:10 am

Thought that might cheer you up, saphyre!

8:10 am

not as bad as re words sprite!

8:10 am

just slap me if i ask for a k clue later :)

8:11 am

I prefer re-words!

8:11 am

For me, vowel words are the worst...

8:11 am

i agree--a's aren't my faves either!!

8:12 am

maybe i should enter all my k words again :)

8:12 am

That might work, saphyre... worth a shot!

8:12 am

Done. And for the 3rd time in a row: no fireworks. Is this site buggy or what!

8:12 am

Congrats sprite!

8:13 am

Huzzah for Sprite! Even without fireworks...

8:13 am

sprite, same with me--bring back the fireworks!!

8:13 am

i like text twist .... better

8:13 am

:) cheers from you guys are even better than fireworks!

8:13 am

nope...but I just noticed that two of them i typed with my caps lock on... maybe that did something

8:13 am

Hmmm... 3 days of no foreworks, you say? Hmmmm... that's how long it's been since I've completed a puzzle... coincidence? Or am I holding everyone up with my laziness??

8:13 am

congrats sprite

8:14 am

LOL Jera!

8:15 am

Got to go, happy hunting all!

8:15 am

bye sprite

8:15 am

Bye, sprite!

8:15 am

bye, sprite!

8:16 am

ok i found the bug - if you type in uppercase it doesn't record them in the tile stats

8:16 am

That didn't used to make a difference... good to know... glad your mystery is solved, saphyre!

8:17 am

i guess i need to use the list today to keep track of what i really need.

8:21 am

oh well - 100 to go I'll be back later

8:21 am

bye everyone

8:21 am

bye saphyre!

8:22 am

I just found 100 & the contruction out front is picking up... back later (I hope)!

8:22 am

later, saphyre!

8:22 am

has anyone got the na5/10?

8:23 am

it's Indian bread

8:24 am

naan

8:24 am

aans

8:24 am

shoot...thx..sorry

8:24 am

:-D

8:41 am

i'm not seeing the chat moving, and i've refreshed several times...is it me, or is the chat stalled?

8:41 am

lol, or did everyone just get vewwy vewwy quiet?

8:42 am

Not you featherbee, I think we all just got lost in the grid! :)

8:43 am

heh, i was wondering if there was something wrong with the chat! don't think i've ever seen it that quiet!

8:50 am

Stats Schmats I'm going to play today. I may not finish but it has been three days and I'm going through grid search withdraw.

8:51 am

it's not too bad so far, musicmom

8:52 am

I'm just going for it. Greg and Sarah have left for his gig in Parkersburg. Hannah slept over at the babysitter's last night. It is quiet and I'm alone. Great time to play

8:55 am

246 words.... will Dr_God ever have mercy on us?

8:56 am

He did last week on Mother's Day when I had all day to play<G>

8:57 am

lol

8:57 am

Ok after an age I'm back and can't recognise the grid or page! :o

8:57 am

Hey Zubie Welcome to the new and improved babble world

8:58 am

Hi musicmom; when did this change happen? I am scared of the new look :d

8:58 am

hey zubie... wb!

8:58 am

Hey cathy thanks

8:59 am

i came back after quite a break too... this change is actually nice

8:59 am

Sometime around the first of May. I was gone for a week and came back shocked as well.

8:59 am

I don't doubt it; just needs getting used to...My system can't take it yet!

9:00 am

One warning. Be very careful to switch your cursor back to the add word box before you type a word. Lots of us have screwed up putting words in the chat

9:00 am

Done. 246 words.

9:00 am

Oh...yes, nearly happened to me already. Thanks musicmom.

9:00 am

Oh...yes, nearly happened to me already. Thanks musicmom.

9:01 am

WTG scraggly!

9:01 am

Bravo Scraggly

9:01 am

I think it will take a while for me to get used to this - the page looks so...*busy*!

LI 5 10 ? ..... please

9:02 am

Zubie - it is my understanding that pretty soon you won't be able to see the tile stats if you don't have Pro status. Dr_God put them there so people could try them out.

9:03 am

I don't have that yet Grim

9:04 am

Tile stats as is? The word list of words I've found? Gee - if that happens then it's going to be tough

9:05 am

i keep wanting to do tendril

9:05 am

No zubie - down below the grid. You have tile stats -- -they show you how many words come off each letter in the grid

9:06 am

I've never had that, musicmom; not even before the change

9:06 am

You should have it now --- hmmmmm unless it has gone away already sorry:-((

9:06 am

Hi zubie, long time, how are you? musicmom the stats have already been taken away form non pros, happened a couple of days ago.

9:07 am

i think it may have left by now

9:07 am

Thanks FMitch - I have been away from the grid for about 3 days

9:07 am

I don't have it now; and if it's gone away already that pretty unfair of it - going before I even had a chance to meet it ;D There's manners [of a stats panel] for you ;D

9:07 am

FMitch!!! Yayyy! Hi how are you?

9:08 am

LOL Zubie - what are you going to do?

9:08 am

Glad to see you!!!!!, where have you been!!!!!

9:08 am

I have come back after almost a month to experience a severe shock to my system - a changed page, chat logs where there were none before and stats panels vanishing before I meet them!

9:09 am

I know zubie, it's taking a lot of getting used to and it's still quite buggy. Have a look at lickety and angelsongs lins under friends of babble to all new and improved

9:09 am

brb

9:10 am

zubie - you can always use one of the links at the bottom of the page. licketys is a good one and has the stats

9:10 am

Hello, all. I might have to quit this god forsaken game. I seem to love it more than I should. The sun is out for the 1st time in forever and I'm sitting in here w/ my best friend hp on my lap. What's wrong w/this picture?

9:11 am

I'm not going to do anything right now, musicmom; the disappeared stats panel will have to stay disappeared until I can figure out what to do about them.

9:11 am

FMitch - been busy; haven't had time to log into Babble lately

9:12 am

I'm not playing today zubie as am short on time but just had to pop in and say Hi when I sawy you rname coume up. Are you back for a while or is this afleeting visit? We can all quit anytime can't we gramma!!!

9:12 am

Ok ls1 - I'll do that just as soon as I get stuck - which will be pretty soon I think, with my babble-rusty brain[severely shocked too] - :)

9:12 am

lovuly picture gramma

9:12 am

LOL Gramma - my house is trashed from us being busy. I'm home alone - perfect time to clean up but I'm playing. Don't quit!!

9:13 am

I think I win the prize for laziness... I'm playing babble and letting my son watch a Power Rangers marathon!

9:13 am

TY I'm trying to keep abreast of the real world. Gone from daffodils to tulips to now lilacs.

9:13 am

I need to cut my finger nails. I can't type for crap today

9:13 am

Aww FMitch (((hugs))) ; I reached 46 but I think the total is 200 more than that; I'm quitting and turning this into a flying visit. Or was it fleeting? :D And you can email me...

9:14 am

I hate N words!

9:14 am

Me too Gramma - but at least there is only one r word today.

9:15 am

None of those dreaded RE's

9:15 am

N-words? There are N-words?

9:15 am

no re words ahhhhhhh just one cute little r4.

9:15 am

All is right with the world as long as there are no re words gramma!

9:16 am

Cherrypop, don't you worry your pretty little head

9:16 am

haven't got yr email addy zubie

9:17 am

You can mail me at bab anon, FMitch - through the system there; I'm zubie there too and then I'll let you have a proper email id from there

9:17 am

9:17 am

9:17 am

9:19 am

Ok FMitch ; Now I'm out of here for now; I will check babanon tomorrow or so;

9:20 am

Ok FMitch ; Now I'm out of here for now; I will check babanon tomorrow or so;

Yeah - well we'll see how I feel when I am up until the flip finishing;)

10:03 am

10:03 am

It's easy to have this kind of bravado early in the day.

10:04 am

I stayed away Friday and Saturday because I KNEW I didn't have time to even come close to finishing

10:04 am

My nose hurts... I've sent hubby out for aloe gell...

10:04 am

I'm sooo sorry. You are helping me though. I will remember to put sunscreen on before my walk - even on my ears.

10:04 am

I'm stuck at home till the POwer Rangers marathon (promised my son he could watch it all) is over, so I should be able to finish this one.

10:05 am

My ears are not too bad, althouth they hurt earlier... now my nose hurst, which wasn't really bothering me before...

10:05 am

Help with the si6?

10:05 am

What fun, Jen!

10:05 am

It's all the old ones Jera, so the fashions are a hoot!

10:06 am

I resent Power Rangers... total rip-off of Voltron!

10:07 am

Don't know Voltron... these are from the early 90's.

10:07 am

How many un's are there? I'm gonna work on those to start finding new words...

10:07 am

Voltron was an 80's thing... I loved them as a kid

10:07 am

7 un words I think. I'm missing one 6/21

10:08 am

si6, si plus road : )

10:08 am

10:08 am

10:08 am

My monkey typing is pathetic today

10:09 am

Good Morning All: Beautiful Sunday here in the states, thought I would babble for a bit....any clue on the 9 letter word Thanks

10:10 am

Morning Speedfreak. I know the 9 starts with sa but I haven't found it

10:10 am

It's becoming quite a challenge to make half-way before using the list

10:10 am

Morning, speedfreak, how are you today?

10:11 am

sa9 is like the formal hello minus the "u"

10:11 am

hi speed! sorry, don't have the 9 yet : )

10:11 am

speedfreak, the sa 9 sounds like a word that means "greeting", but remove the u.

10:11 am

I didn't even try today Jera. I'm going for a speed record instead - how fast can I do it with the list

10:11 am

do now! thanks jen : )

10:11 am

10:17 am

10:18 am

10:19 am

speedfreak, there is an fe8/55

10:19 am

10:39 am

Hi Punster

10:39 am

sief

10:40 am

dang, blast and bugger it!

10:40 am

you've got your vowels backwards punster

10:40 am

hi punster : )

10:40 am

hursh! how's you? : )

10:40 am

fine loly, this grid started out kinder than it is getting now.

10:40 am

Hiya, punster...... So, how was the Da Vinci Code?

10:41 am

Hey Lola, good to see you again :) How's today's grid treating you?

10:41 am

yeah, how was the code?

10:41 am

hursh, it's not a nice one, is it? : /

10:41 am

it WAS loly, but now it turned mean.

10:41 am

I found the DaVinci Code to be better than I thought, and will go see it again before it goes

10:42 am

I can't wait to see it Punster

10:42 am

i'm not sure i have the po4 that the po7 is based on...

10:42 am

you too punster : ) grids starting to bite back : /

10:42 am

So, I kinda missed out then......

10:42 am

Punster, does "better than I thought" mean "good"?

10:42 am

oh no, i see.

10:43 am

i haven't read the book yet, but will do that rather. can't STAND tom hanks! : /

10:43 am

anyone else going nuts over potent, potential, and potentate?

10:43 am

I read the book and Tom Hanks is completely miscast.

10:44 am

Definitely, Movieman :} Consider this, the film is 2h 30m long, but I didn't notice the time passing - my definition of a good film

10:44 am

SCD - I'm going nuts over potato......

10:44 am

that too!

10:44 am

Though I have to admit that I haven't read the book so I don't know how it compares

10:44 am

i hate the book

10:44 am

always read the book first.... : )

10:45 am

I'm a big fan of long movies that don't seem long, that's why I'm such a big Peter Jackson fan......

10:45 am

I love Tom Hanks and think he is going to be perfect. Haven't seen it though.

10:45 am

I Love long movies!

10:45 am

potato? that reminds me...better go start dinner! back in a bit : )

10:45 am

Loved the book

10:45 am

I'm full of love today can you tell?

10:45 am

brb

10:46 am

the book annoyed the c**p out of me. my son in law loved it and thought i was nuts. so i agree with hurshy. i thought i was the only one.

10:46 am

As to the grid, I find it really annoying that the first word I saw today was 'inundate' - which isn't actually in here!

10:46 am

loved the code, laughed thru angels and demons though.

10:46 am

yeah that one bugs me too punster.

10:47 am

i almost fell off my chair laughing at the helicopter scene in angels. still annoys me today.

10:47 am

now what is this in7 that CHS mentioned...

10:47 am

al7 anyone?

10:48 am

like el7, jen

10:48 am

Funny I loved Angels and Demons too.

10:48 am

TY hurshy! :)

10:49 am

Both of those books I picked up prepared to hate them and see blaspheme. They are just great fictional stories in my opinion.

10:49 am

I'm REALLY, REALLY looking forward to X3 this week.....

10:49 am

i am glad they ran x2 friday. now i know what happened, so i can see x3 now.

10:49 am

the funniest thing was I read Angels and Demons when the current pope was being selected. I kept getting confused between what was going on in the book and what was ont he news<G>

10:49 am

That one looks good too movieman

10:50 am

Personally gonna see X3 this Friday on the first showing on the big screen in Vue

10:50 am

very interesting musicmom

10:50 am

CHS, clue me up on that in7, unless it's really fishy

10:50 am

I have been getting my Clint Eastwood education this week. I had never seen his earlier works.

10:51 am

10:51 am

10:51 am

10:51 am

10:51 am

SCD - in+5th vowel+roof slate......

10:51 am

i'm sure people will use them, SMF and CHS

10:52 am

i did thanks. do you know what it is though?

10:52 am

I actually am really enjoying them. Dirty Harry and Outlaw Josie were great. We are in the middle of The Good The Bad and The Ugly

10:52 am

Will probably finish tonight.

10:52 am

yes, smazing, it means useless.

10:52 am

Also watch Paint Your Wagon -- who knew he could sing?

10:53 am

10:53 am

10:53 am

10:53 am

10:53 am

10:57 am

10:57 am

i need one more k. something about a large noise. i still don't get it. any other clue?

10:57 am

Punster, I know you don't much like cluez being given out unless you're REALLY desperate, but unfortunately, the damn log can't be turned off.....

10:57 am

I trindled a girdle once. Took ages to get rid of the rash.

10:57 am

yes it can!

10:58 am

OHHHH Okay

10:58 am

Icon of a speech bubble next to 'My Friends'

10:58 am

but we have a new game, folks. when someone puts in a real word by accident we make a sentence building off it, one word at a time.

10:58 am

dachef! lol : D

10:59 am

No whoops got it wrong again, my mind isn't on the game today, had some upsets at home

10:59 am

Punster, that only gets rid of the text box......

10:59 am

sorry punster

10:59 am

everything okay punster?

10:59 am

but you could put it on my friends or something, or you can just make the window smaller, if you really don't want the log.

11:00 am

Anyway, if you don't want to see the chat log, just click on my friends and it will work

11:00 am

seems to me movieman needs one more 8 and a few more 7's...

11:01 am

By the way, punster, how are you doing word-wise?

11:01 am

Yesterday afternoon we received a phone call saying my mother had been rushed to hospital

11:01 am

Correct, SCD - 5 more 7's and 1 8......

11:01 am

I'm still missing two 8 and two 7

11:01 am

is she okay??

11:02 am

God, punster, I hope she's alright.....

11:02 am

Oh my punster. Best thoughts and prayers

boker tov! buongiorno! bonjou!

11:03 am

((((((Punster))))

11:03 am

hope she will be ok. punster. Are you able to go and see her?

11:05 am

She was having fits and couldn't remember certain personal details, like phone numbers and such. Apparently at one point she didn't even recognise my dad. They ran a whole battery of tests on her and are still not sure whats wrong. We went in earlier and visited with her and she couldn't remember anything that had happened.

11:05 am

(((((punster)))))

11:06 am

God God, Punster, that has come as a shock, I REALLY hope she gets better......

11:06 am

aww {{{punster}}}, must be a worrying time for you. hope she makes a speedy recovery.

11:06 am

hope they figure out what's going on. Glad that you can be there to see and help her out.

punster, i don't know you but feel so bad for what your are going thru.

punster, i don't know you but feel so bad for what your are going thru.

11:06 am

Well done, melonhead.....

L'il Kim's late main squeeze

In fact, to honour the 34th anniversary of the great man's birth, I'm gonna play a few of his tunes on my mp3 player.....

edmo do you have the plural of un5/12?

11:35 am

those are FIRST?

how do you tell 1st from 2nd????w

11:36 am

well i just doubt the shoelace ones can be first cause there are 10 u's and there isn't a lot of room after them alphabetically.

oh, alfa, but....how can you know the alfa order if you only have some of da words? me confoosled.

11:38 am

well you can't know for sure unless you have the list (which i don't), but you can make logical guesses like what i just said.

oh, i don't use the word list - what's the point?

ohhhhhhh - logical.

11:40 am

yes, some of us have more fun without the list.

11:40 am

11:46 am

11:46 am

11:47 am

Hi everyone I need that un 6/21 also. The very first one.

11:47 am

We used to have Noddy as a TV when the Sprite was small... she loved it so of course it didn't last long... I was wondering if they were related...

11:48 am

1st un6/21=un+na4/4

11:48 am

how DO they decide what can have un- and what can't???? urf.

11:48 am

jera, noddy was created by enid blyton. one of the UK's most famous childrens authors.

11:49 am

12:00 pm

salt and vinegar on potato chips does funny things to your platypi's nasal passages. (after that i got lost.)

aha! babble sentences - a grid of words rather than letters - kind of like the poetry fridge magnets - extra points if you land an iamb.

12:01 pm

scribble it's a new game i invented - if someone puts in a word accidentally we make a sentence out of it one word at a time.

12:01 pm

Ahhhh... sweet relief... hubby is home with the aloe...

12:02 pm

it's a bird, the other li18, often preceded by the word "sweet"

12:13 pm

el7 joy

12:57 pm

there is no et5?

12:57 pm

yes ARB

12:57 pm

Feather, alas no

12:57 pm

oh sorry feather, it's a 6/7 combo, not 5/6, my head went wonky there - but it is french star.

12:57 pm

wait, you mean a star in the sky? not a star person?

12:58 pm

i did just get it! thanks!

12:58 pm

yes the french word for a star in the sky

12:58 pm

bout time knowing french instead of spanish comes in handy with a grid

12:58 pm

Hurshy, there are 9 to words -- do you have them all?

12:59 pm

yes.

12:59 pm

shoot, I only know spanish

12:59 pm

1:00 pm

ugh, got it ARB - PLURAL FISH, good golly.

1:02 pm

See that's what you get for playing boggle with no plurals like we do -- I ALWAYS miss the plurals

1:02 pm

ty!

1:02 pm

i don't usually - but i probably tried putting it in before and typed too fast and hit a wrong key and didn't notice - i go so fast at the beginning that i don't see if they all go in alright.

1:03 pm

Morning all. I'm hooked on te--since I cannot fix on a Biblical matriarch (there are so many such) Can an inital bgivwn do you suppose?

1:03 pm

the matriarch's husband was also married to her sister, whom he preferred and had worked 7 years for.

1:03 pm

Jacob married two

1:04 pm

Hetty, there are only 4 women who are referred to as Biblical matriarchs

1:05 pm

there really ought to be 5 though - eve should count :)

1:05 pm

Thanks Hursh Now for the misspelling---

1:05 pm

She's pre-history, pre-covenant etc

1:05 pm

I'm hung up on EN's - anyone can help?

1:05 pm

1:06 pm

and I have the one that means to contain (as in a document)

1:06 pm

jera, in 7 is not useful

1:06 pm

en's - boredom, involve, en+a sister, sister twin, en + work, and maybe something else i miss

1:06 pm

1:09 pm

Hetty, Just a student of the Bible -- in Israel, it's considered literature, history, and geography in addition to theology.

1:09 pm

the

1:09 pm

IRS

1:10 pm

comes

1:10 pm

a-knocking!

1:10 pm

any clues for fe6?

1:10 pm

(perfect!)

1:10 pm

like the fe 5/16 but add a vowel in middle

1:10 pm

file away your receipts after you send your taxes, lest the IRS comes a-knocking. very sound advice.

1:10 pm

ok, with those en clues, i got a bit lost...i have all but one en 6/18. i have the boredom one, and the one that says what something contains

1:11 pm

indeed

hi everyone - i lfet 89 for myself last night, i think i'm only going to knock off a few & then take a nap :)

1:11 pm

feather, I am also stuck on en, can't see the sister bit

1:11 pm

"entoad" isn't that what wicked witches do?

1:11 pm

featherbee, you have en+work?

1:11 pm

Feather, en + to work hard

1:11 pm

i think that was maybe spanish for sister? or aunt?

1:12 pm

er, which fe5/16?

1:12 pm

OH, aunt!!!

1:12 pm

yes probably, i just don't know spanish.

1:12 pm

Thanks, ARB, as a studnt of theology many years ago I learned Hebrew and had to read the pentateuch in its original masoretic text-- I've never forgotten the powe of those stories. Whether myth, history, metaphor--whatever--matters nor at all. There is truth there

1:12 pm

oh, misread my numbers, have that one, sorry

1:12 pm

got it, thanks!

1:12 pm

lmao, who wants to slap me? i have them all, just wasn't reading my list right! sorry...

1:12 pm

ok wait there are two fe 5/16???

1:12 pm

do you have the fe8?

1:13 pm

Hetty, you send shivers down my spine.

1:13 pm

Hursh, there are

1:14 pm

hurshy, the second one is the one that leads to the 6 and 8

1:14 pm

but that's the one i have

1:14 pm

the other one starts like a word meaning DOABLE

1:14 pm

Hurshy, f + life of Riley

1:15 pm

thanks, thanks, done with F's now!

1:15 pm

Arb my love, I didn't intend to affect you. Reminds me of yestrday, when I couldn't think of the word "tingle". Now I've completely lost my own drift--what was i about Jacob's wives anyway?

1:16 pm

you were trying to misspell the unloved one.

1:16 pm

Thanks, Hursh. I gess it must be a matter of an aitch, there not being one there. I'll try again

1:16 pm

Thanks Hurshy, I was going to have to go back to the archived chat to figure out where we were!

1:17 pm

misspell worse than that

1:17 pm

Good day all, a clue for the in7/32, please?

1:17 pm

Hetty, the vowels are different too

1:17 pm

useless, chic

1:18 pm

Hetty, want a different clue?

1:18 pm

Good. I found it by moinkeying around--many thanks, all you gre Biblical scholars

1:18 pm

im back to talk

1:19 pm

hannah used a WOOOORD

1:19 pm

in 7/32 -- useless

1:19 pm

okay, I'm still missing one EN, it's one of the first two en 6 words, I have the one that means involve

1:19 pm

thanx, Hursh, good clue and I knew that's not what you were calling me...:-)

1:19 pm

lol, didn't even think of that chic!

1:20 pm

i just got the last one... think of what's on a barn, the tall thing for grain...change the last vowel

1:20 pm

then i need an en6 also!

1:20 pm

yay, thanks featherbee!

1:20 pm

feather, perfect!!!!

1:25 pm

1:25 pm

Feather, add another vowel in the middle of the fe 5/16

1:26 pm

1:27 pm

1:27 pm

does the 8 work off the same pattern?

1:28 pm

yes feather add a pl ending that it doesn't look like it would normally get

1:28 pm

ah, ok, thanks

1:29 pm

howz ever one

1:31 pm

Sorry, all you farm guys, but I haven't a clue what you store grain in-whatever its shape. en6 please?

1:31 pm

peri, start with another spelling for opp of DAY

1:32 pm

then use first three letters and add first three of "good ***dance" or "get *** of" (throw out)

1:33 pm

then change last letter of that one

1:33 pm

Don't you store grain in a silo?

1:34 pm

yes you do minver :)

1:35 pm

featherbee I tried changing the last vowel in silo and none of the vowels worked. Please, another hint?

1:36 pm

change it from the 4th vowel to the 2nd vowel

1:36 pm

we are talking about the en 6/18, right min?

1:37 pm

peri, did you get those NI?

1:38 pm

le 6/18?

1:39 pm

ooh, got it, nm

1:40 pm

Thanks, farmers all

1:41 pm

I changed the o in silo to the 2nd vowel e and it says the word was not found in the dictionary. Now what?

1:42 pm

minver - it's en+ that, it's not stand-alone

1:42 pm

i wasn't talking about a four letter word, i was talking about the en 6/18...just add that word we talked about to the end

1:42 pm

min, you are wornking on en, right...

1:42 pm

no si, the barn clue about what you store grain in.

1:43 pm

it wasn't for any si 4 letter word...it was for the en 6/18 word

1:43 pm

minver, the barn clue was for en6

1:43 pm

is anyone else finding this puzzle quite hard? heh

1:44 pm

oh, sorry! Now I feel really stupid! Kinda new at this.

1:44 pm

starts out easy, gets mean.

1:44 pm

that's ok min!

1:44 pm

Had to read to my granddaughter, so been away for a few minutes. Hurshy, what's your status?

It was fun, Hurshy -- trying to figure out what you would have trouble getting, and then figuring out how to give a "clever" hint

2:01 pm

well thanks :)

2:01 pm

hello folks, i'm down to 172, nrkii let's race ;)

2:01 pm

"latin" was not found in the dictionary?

2:01 pm

Thought that WAS the dictionary...

2:01 pm

you were very good at it - hardly any wrong guesses!

2:01 pm

proper noun

2:01 pm

lol jfarber

2:01 pm

Remember, I've got an 8 hour head start on you.

2:02 pm

yes but your guessing skills are good.

2:02 pm

I need an NA 4/5 after the na 4/7. I have the one you hammer.

2:02 pm

My wrong guesses were only where you were so good and did have the word.

2:03 pm

a classic babblet, nrkii, n with vowels

2:03 pm

nrkii, it's a 4/4

2:03 pm

ALL the most common babblets are here today except ywis!

2:04 pm

yep, it's 4/4, sorry, still typing around to find it...

2:04 pm

Ywis are out to lunch today

2:04 pm

mmmm.... lunch....

2:05 pm

oh my, I almost ran out of combinations on that na 4/4

2:05 pm

tx hurshy!

2:05 pm

and ARB!

2:05 pm

How many Na 4/4's rae there? I have 2.

2:06 pm

I mean are...

2:06 pm

it's just amazing though that so many are in at once...na4/4, to4/4, et4/4, et4/5

2:06 pm

three na 4/4's

2:06 pm

lickety said after the flip that from his list of 13 most used babble words that 6 were in this puzzle

2:07 pm

i believe it!

2:07 pm

does the po 7 build off the po 4 before it ?

2:07 pm

yes nrkii

2:07 pm

Cadfan, na 4/4 -- a bread from India

2:07 pm

Nrkii -- yes it does, think British spelling

2:07 pm

i'm going to finish sudoku but i'll pop back and forth

2:08 pm

Shalom

2:08 pm

I'm back from errands in town. What a joke that trip was. I should have stayed home and babbled.

2:08 pm

geez, after the last puzzle i would be ok with no a's at all... no luck there

2:09 pm

tx arb!

2:09 pm

Can any1 help me w/UL5? I have the 4. Am I missing the obvious?

2:10 pm

what is Sudoku? I thought it was another word game.

2:10 pm

Ihave the Indian bread, and its plural

2:10 pm

Gramma -- add a consonant to the ul 4

2:10 pm

I just looked at the website and I just seen numbers.

2:11 pm

Good on ya, Cadfan

2:11 pm

it's a logic game, minver.

2:11 pm

What are the rules of Sudoku? How do you play it? Is it funner than Babble? I think Babble is pretty fun!

2:11 pm

ARB, at the end?

2:11 pm

Gramma, yes

2:12 pm

I'm a bit pouty today - paid for Pro on Friday - but it isn't reflected yet.. so I have no stats and am playing blind.

2:12 pm

cadfan, try logging out and logging back in

2:12 pm

ARB, ty.

my stats are gone :( anyone know how many words are in the grid today?

2:13 pm

246

2:13 pm

246 words total

thanks

2:13 pm

Hey.. P.S> - I know some of you may recall that my son was in a serious accident last August. Yesterday he was a member of 2 Colorado State finalist relay teams at the Colorado State Track meet.

2:14 pm

that is wonderful cadfan! congratulations to him.

2:14 pm

That's great news -- sounds like a really complete recovery.

2:14 pm

Oh - I'm guessing it's probably a Paypal delay. I'l totally survive - it's just that I finally made the decisoin to spend the money and Im disappointed it takes so long!

2:14 pm

Congrats, CadFan. I do remember that and he has a great deal to be proud of!

and i already have 92... only 154 to go

2:14 pm

YEs. complete recovery - and what makes his participation in the meet all the more special is that he is only a Freshman.

2:15 pm

wow. sounds like a pretty strong-willed person

2:15 pm

Cadfan, you can get all the stats using the link to Lickety's site on the bottom of the page.

2:15 pm

cad how old is a freshman?

2:15 pm

but that's odd cadfan, it's supposed to be instant - you should email the doc. glad about your son!

2:16 pm

and woohoo on me!!!!!!!!!!! i did today's hard without marking.

2:16 pm

Strong willed.. yes, that would describe Graham - including all the positive and negative that accompany that term

2:16 pm

nice one, hursh

2:16 pm

Freshman in the US are 9th graders... 14-15 years old - Graham is 15

2:17 pm

Hmmm.. I think I'll try the log out log back in again...

2:17 pm

thanks. just nosey. ! good for him x

2:17 pm

Hurshy, I can't get excited about sudoku -- much prefer word games. I admire anyone with the ability to use logic on no verbal things.

2:18 pm

i like babble better than sudoku cause it's always different. sudoku, once you master it, is kinda always the same.

2:19 pm

Ah, maybe that's why I lost interest in the 2nd week. It's amazing how it has swept the world -- you find it in the Hebrew papers here, and in the Arabic.

2:22 pm

I was just introduced to Babble & now I am addicted to it. How long has this game been on the internet?

2:22 pm

a few years, minver.

2:22 pm

hurshy, I have 2 to go, can you help?

2:22 pm

Does anybody play WEBOGGLE? I like that game too.

2:23 pm

of course nrkii

2:23 pm

i've played it some minver

2:23 pm

I am stuck on the last PO

2:23 pm

and a T, but I have to find which one

2:23 pm

po6, think of a word for the pope but change the ending

2:23 pm

But the words are not worth as many points and it is a timed game. Alot more pressure for a lot less points

2:24 pm

that and the site isn't as good - it hangs up a lot and there's no chat...

2:25 pm

and it's not as PRETTY

2:26 pm

nrkii -- po 6/21 -- Sophia Loren's husband's last name + consonant

2:27 pm

hurshy and arb, thank you!

2:27 pm

I believe that it would be hard to chat on Weboggle since you have no time to chat when playing it.

2:27 pm

now just missing a ta 4/4 to finish

2:28 pm

What's the first name of Sophia Loren's husband? Is he famous?

2:28 pm

ta + 7th note of the scale

2:28 pm

DONE! (was so excited I typed DONE in the add word box first)

2:28 pm

Carlos, I think

2:28 pm

huzzah nrkii!

2:28 pm

lol nrkii :)

2:28 pm

YEAH Nrkii

2:29 pm

that's true minver. but also if it's going to be timed i don't like that people can play as teams.

2:29 pm

I just googled it. Her husband's first name is Carlo.

2:30 pm

oh my, well I still have the NYT Sunday crossword to do , and the DaVinci Eurostar quest -- my day is far from over!

2:30 pm

thanks for all your help, especially ARB and Hurshy!

2:30 pm

today is a very exciting day for me

2:30 pm

Ignore my ta hint -- it's 10:30 p.m. here

2:31 pm

hurshy, why?

2:31 pm

yw

2:31 pm

because you get to chat with all of us?

2:31 pm

Hurshy, why?

2:31 pm

So how does that work?Is it a bunch of people sitting around one computer with one person typing?

2:31 pm

because *shame* i watch "charmed" regularly, even though it's really not a good show, but i can't stop! and tonight is the LAST EPISODE EVER and i will finally be free!!!!

2:32 pm

ooh, yes hurshy, this is very important to me too

2:32 pm

i dunno minver, that's what i would imagine.

2:32 pm

Hey All, hows it going tonight ?

2:32 pm

hello aussie

2:32 pm

be proud of your guilty pleasures hurshy

2:32 pm

Poor me, I have no idea of what you are talking about -- we getAmerican TV a year later.

2:32 pm

fine and dandy aussie.

2:32 pm

hi aussieme

2:33 pm

Good to hear it

2:33 pm

Hi Aussie -- it must be tomorrow there already

2:33 pm

anyone care to know the icon themes for the coming week?

2:33 pm

it's just, nrkii, i sit there and i watch and i go "this is so stupid! that doesn't make any sense!" and yet i can't not watch. so i am glad it is ending.

2:33 pm

Ok, which tomorrow ARB ?

2:33 pm

What is it, hursh?

2:33 pm

tomorrow is DAIRY PRODUCTS

2:34 pm

I hear ya! how many times are they going to kill the same demons --- sheez!

2:34 pm

moo?

2:34 pm

Theme for Sun 21 May - Dallas / Dynasty Theme for Mon 22 May - Dairy Products Theme for Tues 23 May - Our Own Artwork Theme for Weds 24 May - 70s Cop Shows Theme for Thurs 25 May - Desperate Housewives Theme for Fri 26 May - Sitcoms Theme for Sat 27 May - Soap Operas Theme for Sun 28 May - Before They Were Famous

2:34 pm

You could play Babble like that also. Who is to know who is with you helping you find words? It is kind of like getting clues or hints from the chat log, right?

2:34 pm

it's very important that as many people as possible participate in DAIRY PRODUCT day

2:34 pm

I'm Sunday 10:30 p.m. you must be Monday -- for me tomorrow

2:35 pm

well but we all get hints from each other minver, so that is different, we know how it works. i don't want to be just me on my own on weboggle competing against 5 people somewhere together.

2:35 pm

I'm Sunday 8:34 pm, not into monday yet, wish I was though

2:35 pm

Eat cheesecake?

2:35 pm

hurshy, I will go looking for my dairy icon now

2:35 pm

lol, ARB, if you like, but i mean have a DAIRY PRODUCT in your icon.

2:36 pm

Aha -- with a screen name of Aussieme, I assumed you were Australian. Silly me.

2:36 pm

I get your point Hurshy, that is true.

2:36 pm

hmmm, hursh why is this so important to you?

2:36 pm

it was noble's theme suggestion and he'll enjoy seeing all the dairy products.

2:36 pm

What are these themes you are talking about. Does every Babble board have words to a certain theme?

2:36 pm

And I must sadly admit (hangs head in shame) that I cannot distinguish the various flags of the former British Empire

2:36 pm

No, born and bred there, but live in UK...... Lived here most of my life, whereabouts are you ARB?

2:37 pm

no minver - the little pictures we pros have, our icons, we have themese for those.

2:37 pm

it's the theme we use in our icons, minver. just for fun.

2:37 pm

if the grid related as well, we would have had "salacious" today.

2:37 pm

I am in Tel Aviv, Israel. I live 5 minutes from the Mediterranean, 1 minute from the City hall, in the middle of the city.

2:38 pm

how did you come to live in israel, arb?

2:38 pm

Oh, haven't upgraded to pro yet. I do not feel like I can upgrade to pro since I am far from a pro at this game. Maybe next year I'll be able to upgrade to pro.

2:38 pm

lol, you get more clues for being pro!

2:39 pm

minver, it's just a matter of $15. lots of "pros" kinda stink at the game actually. i name no names.

2:39 pm

I thought that I was pretty good at word games,but you guys blow me away! I have a long way to go now!

2:39 pm

Sounds like a busy place to be then ARB..... Feeling bloated right now, be back in a jiffy, need to get some juice !!

2:39 pm

36 years ago, we decided to try it -- moved from MArin county in California with our 3 daughters. Still trying it, I guess.

2:39 pm

That's a beautiful area ARB! I love Tel Aviv!

2:39 pm

pro may be a 'mis-nomer' - pro addict would probably describe the condition better....

2:39 pm

i hear ya, dippnall!

2:40 pm

it just means we're pro-babble :)

2:40 pm

is it $15 now? i think i only paid $10

2:40 pm

yes it was $10 when i joined too but the price went up

2:41 pm

I paid $14.95, not a bad price when you convert it to £ sterling !!

2:41 pm

It's a lively city -- calls itself the city that never sleeps; lots of music, theater, sun, and beaches, along with occassional scuds

2:41 pm

Hursh, we got a bargain

2:41 pm

ooh, aussie, how did you get the pound symbol in there?

2:41 pm

How do you get more clues? I've just upgraded and all I've gotten are the tile stats. Can you tell me how you all know which tile starts a word ? I seen where someone will say the e on the first row...how do they know? HELP!!!

2:42 pm

rebdickers, you might enjoy reading "hurshy's guide to boxes - click on my icon.

2:42 pm

alet

2:42 pm

The £ symbol ? Its on my keyboard !!

2:43 pm

Yes, that's me! I am definitely an addict or a nerd or maybe both. Basically, I just have no personal life!

2:43 pm

oh no fair i want one!

2:43 pm

Its above my number 3

2:43 pm

rebdickers - for second letter values click on Lickety's babble clues (under friends of babble) at the bottom of the page.

2:43 pm

reb, like, the first box says n 3/6 or whatever. that means there are 6 words that start with n, and you have three

2:44 pm

it's easier if you right click on those links and then open them in a new window and minimize them. You don't have to click back and forth.

2:44 pm

Probably right above the 4 - where I have a $ - that never occured to me before!!!

2:44 pm

Hurshy, try typing on a German keyboard -- the letters are slightly changed and it makes for an interesting text

2:44 pm

yep - join the rest of us - I've been tied up for several days and suffered the most dreadful withdrawal symptoms..

2:44 pm

lol

2:44 pm

for americans the £ is alt+ 0163

2:44 pm

I have the $ sign above my number 4

2:45 pm

nothing happened. :(

2:45 pm

Thanks....!

2:45 pm

hold down alt and type the numbers in the numpad.. sorry, should've specified

2:45 pm

you might have to put it into word and then copy and paste, hursh

2:45 pm

OH... the 3.. above that in the US we heve a # (which is also a pound sign!)

2:45 pm

it doesn't work from the numbers above your letters ^^

2:45 pm

Keep the alt button down while you key in all the numbers and then release

2:45 pm

£

2:46 pm

YAY!!!!!

2:46 pm

/cheer

2:46 pm

hurshy, how'd you do it?

2:46 pm

thanks cehess!

2:46 pm

So, do they have this website in different languages?

2:46 pm

Hey, it worked on mine too, I tried it..... hold down Alt, then press 0163, its cool

2:46 pm

Welcome ^^

2:46 pm

oh, i'm on a laptop w/ no number pad... no pounds for me!

2:46 pm

um, someone copied it in danish or dutch minver...

2:46 pm

my computer just yells at me when I do that

2:47 pm

so how many $ in a £ right now? :) :)

2:47 pm

I had that issue too Leslie.. and buying a usb numpad attachment doesn't fix it, btw. I wasted money finding that out. =)

2:47 pm

Oh, drats for LeslieAnn !! cant you copy ans paste it somewhere if you want it ?

2:47 pm

Leslie,I think you can use the numbers on the top of the keyboard and it'll work too

2:47 pm

i can't do a pound... SAD

2:47 pm

well i can certainly copy and paste it from the log: £

2:48 pm

Anyhow, I'm not sure, I think it cost me £7.50 sterling for Pro-Babble, still not bad !!

2:48 pm

i always wondered, cehess, why when i looked at the character map it would say those alt codes and i couldn't get them to work - now i know to use the number pad.

2:48 pm

you can do lots of things from the character map, leslie.

2:48 pm

Guess what guys ??

2:48 pm

what aussie!

2:49 pm

Lesliue, scratch what I said -- it doesn't work.

2:49 pm

'sok

2:49 pm

5 more days till my baby comes !!!!! C-Section on Friday 26th !!!!!!!!!

2:49 pm

© 1980

2:49 pm

hehe, hurshy's having fun.

2:49 pm

hey, that's me, i'm copyright 1980

2:49 pm

COOL! my sister had one on Friday night! What're you having?

2:50 pm

me too leslie!

2:50 pm

wassup, Little Girl !!

2:50 pm

that's great aussie! post a baby picture as soon as you get home!

2:50 pm

I will post one guys, dont worry

2:50 pm

that's what we had! (we meaning my sister)

2:50 pm

do you have a name yet?

2:50 pm

You can use ASCII codes (ALT plus whatever) in most programs, but they don't function in games...

2:51 pm

Georgia Grace

2:51 pm

oooh name her meredith

2:51 pm

Sarah is a good name... :)

2:51 pm

oh yeah i think you said that before, i forgot

2:51 pm

oh that's very pretty, aussie

2:51 pm

site

2:51 pm

although my sister's middle name is grace, it's more of a joke in the family now :)

2:51 pm

oh, i missed the name you posted. that's really pretty aussie

2:51 pm

Hurshy, I am now officially ready for Dairy Products theme tomorrow

2:52 pm

Thanks, that's my name! (Sarah)

2:52 pm

haha you're a cheesehead!

2:52 pm

good going nrkii :) i have several... don't know what to use!

2:52 pm

I feel like an idiot!! I've just realized that the tile stats below are in the EXACT same place as the rid above! It all makes sense!

2:52 pm

I mean grid!

2:52 pm

that's funny leslie. i have a friend who's middle name is grace. she's so clumsy that it's really ironic. we always tease her about her middle name.

2:52 pm

**grins** ..... My Grandma's name was Grace, so middle name after her..... Listen, I have to pop off for a bit, Hubby due homw from work soon, have to get something for him to eat...... Will be back soon.....

2:52 pm

yes, but rebdickers, if it looks like a word can start in more than one place, and you want to know where it counts... read "hurshy's guide to boxes".

2:52 pm

Mine too minveryork!

2:53 pm

my name is nancy, which means "grace"; mom's name is the same, and we're the two clutsiest people I know

2:53 pm

neat

2:53 pm

shouldn't HE be getting YOU something to eat, aussie!

2:53 pm

bye aussie! good luck with the c-section if we don't see you before then

2:53 pm

maybe it's a curse... :)

2:53 pm

bye aussie!

2:54 pm

Nah, he works 10 hour shifts, I'm not hungry right now, feel as big as a house !!

2:54 pm

nrkii, you and your mom have the same name?

2:54 pm

lol, so that means that annoying lady on cable news, nancy grace, her name is redundant.

2:54 pm

yeah, different middle names though

2:54 pm

see you all soon, will be in before friday, I know I will !!!!!

2:54 pm

hurshy, pretty much

2:54 pm

did that get confusing at your house?

2:54 pm

yes, we answer the phone the same way

2:54 pm

as lorelai said - men do it all the time, why shouldn't women?

2:55 pm

so it got really bad when I was job hunting, and people would call my house

2:55 pm

I had to tell them to ask for NANCY JUNIOR (kind of humiliating)

2:55 pm

lol

2:55 pm

my dad named me -- mom thought she couldn't have a girl, so she made a deal that he could name me if I was a girl

2:55 pm

i gotta go too. major lack of caffeine headache. i need to make some coffee.Then we're off to costco to look at patio furniture. :) Yeah!

Biggest sigh here. I'm resolved not to ask for clues again without checking my list against Lickety's Only you super-dooperplayers have persuaded me to avoid the list if at all possible. . .

5:44 pm

Not I--I use the list, Hetty! (after giving it my best shot)

5:44 pm

hetty - PLEASE disregard anyone trying to discourage you from using the list. I use it all the time and get thoroughly annoyed with those who try to bully others into doing without it!

5:45 pm

hetty i use the list as well

5:46 pm

da 6/21 anyone?

5:46 pm

no-6/18

5:46 pm

Good morning all. Hetty i love the list, my kids and hubby love it. I think it would be impossible without it. I think this game is challenging as it it. Don't listen to the "none user's" ha ha.

good grief - no one should feel pressured into not using the list! we all like to play different ways, nothing wrong with that. i do tend to play about it, saying BE LISTLESS! and such, but that's just to be playful... i tout it because i enjoy it, just like i tout edy's whole fruit sorbet...but i never imagined it would make anyone feel like they had to do without the list unless they enjoyed that as well. is that why you've seemed annoyed with me haz?

la 7/28 is a word that starts with la, has seven letters and is worth 28 points.

5:55 pm

Lara he menat a word starting with LA, word with 7 letters and word with 28 points value

5:55 pm

Each letter has a point same as in scrabble

5:56 pm

the four letter words are worth the point values as they appear on the tiles, but for fives you double it, for sixes you triple it, and so on.

5:56 pm

huhi hurshy are we reading each other minds?

5:56 pm

lol, andy - just the posts, i'm sure. :)

5:56 pm

Oh yeah i know it around there, it's a fair way away from here, that is about 40 drive, that's quite far.

5:56 pm

ty i got it now

5:56 pm

how do you know the word starts with LA? i cant tell

5:57 pm

any help on hte ki46 or ki7

5:57 pm

I think that's because they already figured the word out..... that's the part that was throwing me too

5:57 pm

40 minutes i meant to say.

5:57 pm

Lara we use a list of words, click on the Liskety's Bable Clues link under the grid and you'll see it

5:57 pm

there are two places to get a list of all the words in that format, licketysplit's page, or brandjack's list on babbler's anonymous.

5:57 pm

dont do start trek... but will keep guessing, thatsd the one i cant get

5:57 pm

lara - you could probably google "star trek motion picture deltan" and get it

5:58 pm

it's hard to think of another clue for that one.

5:58 pm

haz - are you still there? did you see my post before?

5:58 pm

svet ive been a few times, its hell of a flight.

5:58 pm

lintal

5:59 pm

andy, i do not see this liskety thing... thanks hurshy, will do so

5:59 pm

ki words - nice, start a fire, starts fire, thing you fly with a string

5:59 pm

lickety is in the middle of the links at the bottom of the page lara

5:59 pm

thanks hursh

5:59 pm

I came to Oz about 24 years ago as an 8year old, that was reallt tiresome. I never want to leave. Perhaps a holiday.

6:00 pm

the links to these resources are at the bottom of the page - angelsong's page has them all gathered together so you can check that out.

6:00 pm

it's in the second column at the bottom of the page in the "Friends of Babble" links

6:00 pm

OH

6:00 pm

Svet, I love hearing about Melbourne;. We have a dughter living with her family in Fremantle, and though we often visit we never seem to get to the east . Folk dont realize how BIG Australia is--for us going to Sydney from Perth is oli9ke going from Seattle t New York, or from Vancouver to Toronto

6:00 pm

all clear lara?

6:01 pm

nu 6\21?

6:01 pm

hurshy - I hadn't but have read it now. I don't know whether it is just me, but I do feel that you emphasise the benefits of 'listlessness' to such a degree that people feel that they should do without, whether they enjoy it or not. I do use the list, as do many others and don't like being made to feel inferior because I do.

6:02 pm

Yeah it's big and you don't see it untill all you see is land for hours when flying. So much space that we can't use, so hot in some area, no water.

6:02 pm

any clues for the te 6/18?

6:03 pm

andy... thank you. not all clear yet! will keep fiddling. you have helpd alot thoug

6:03 pm

Dax add a consonant to the te 5/10 jut b4 it or

6:03 pm

well i don't think you should feel inferior, and i really would be boggled if people actually avoided using it when they didn't want to.

6:03 pm

t + a tool for an artist

6:04 pm

my pleasure Lara, ask anything you want

6:04 pm

I did the same when I started here

6:04 pm

nu6 - like an mu6 (not in puzzle) that means to change - like the teenage ninja turtles did...

6:04 pm

It seems as though the clue format in the "chatterbox" sems incumbent upon using "licketysplit's" first and second letter clue format

6:04 pm

you can't really figure out one without the other

6:05 pm

im off to bed, be back 2morrow. larl see u 2morrow

6:05 pm

see ya oggy

6:05 pm

it actually started as Brandyjack's list:http://p105.ezboard.com/fbabblers anonymousfrm2.showMessage?topicID=6.to pic

6:05 pm

clues for pe 7\32 please

6:05 pm

yayahoho- you can't usually ask for clues in that format without the list, no.

6:06 pm

i like to go listless as long as possible, as a challenge to self. but there's no shame in using a list or getting clues. play as you want. it is a game after all. noting to feel pressured about, that would be a mite silly.

6:06 pm

pe5/12 and add "consumed food"

6:07 pm

Not sure if I even wanted to know there is a word that rhymes with what the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles did... new words I never heard of before freak me out sometimes

6:07 pm

by oggy

6:07 pm

Hurshy, I'm beginning to feel responsible for a rumble in he ranks, and I'm sorry. You have never intimidated me with your "listless"ness--i fact I founit rayther estimable but I myself suggested I would use the term "unlisted" for when I was trying to see words unaided. I shall still try to do that, but in fture shall be less twitchy abut point values etc. Youhave always been most helpful to me.I think we should all play however suits us best and rely as always on the eadiness of fellow players to rescue us in times of trouble.

6:08 pm

oh no, yaya - you're on the right track already by putting in the word i left out.

6:10 pm

I guess the question is "Do I want to learn new words from this game, or see how well I can find the words I already do know." I'm gonna go mediate on this for a few years....

6:10 pm

see yuo everyone gotta go shopping, no milk, no bread, no beer - empty fridge - be back later in the evening

6:11 pm

yaya - i left out "mutant" for a reason - it's related to a word that means to change - it's a thing that has changed, right? and the nu rhymes with it.

6:11 pm

Yaya, some of the a"new

6:11 pm

hetty - it's not your fault. really. most things in babble are my fault.

6:11 pm

words" you will find through this game ou will never ever use.

6:12 pm

Is it's meaning close to the word for becoming a mutant? Or does it just rhyme and mean something totally diff?

6:12 pm

se 7\28?

6:12 pm

I've never heard of it before, but now it's on My Word List for better or worse.

6:12 pm

the n word, i don't know what it means, i didn't bother looking it up.

6:13 pm

you can click on the ? next to it for a definition.

6:13 pm

Now Hursh. I insist on taking responsibility for the little exchange of opinion--in itself enlightening and nurturing of the fellowship, so there

6:13 pm

rock, sway, or nod; usually involuntarily

6:14 pm

oh, didn't know about the ?, thanks

6:14 pm

I'm stuck on the al 6/21...anyone feeling especially nice since I suspect it could be easy?

6:14 pm

hey hursh - didn't know what the question mark was - thanks!!

6:14 pm

i guess it may be enlightening and nuturing...you can take credit for anything good hetty. for me it's one more in a long list of things i've done to annoy people without meaning to.

6:14 pm

kristin - it's not - last name of astronaut buzz.

6:15 pm

virtual fireworks for me (hope they come back at some point!)

6:15 pm

kristinc, you need t start with the4th letter (alpha) and add mostof what happens when you press a doorbell

6:15 pm

oh good hushy...that was a weird one, thanks!

6:15 pm

i like ya hurshy

6:15 pm

i like ya too

6:16 pm

thanks also hetty ;)

6:18 pm

6:19 pm

6:19 pm

nighty night everyone

6:20 pm

goodnight scatty, take care!

6:20 pm

I'm missing one of three ke 4/8s

6:20 pm

Is that the right way to ask a clue?

6:20 pm

hurshy, you're the best

6:20 pm

yes, yaya. one sounds like what you use to unlock your door

6:21 pm

I have the boat part and the really interested one

6:21 pm

and I envy your ability to work without the list -- best I can do is about 50% with no help (no tile stats or clueing in chat) and 70-80 with no list.

6:21 pm

HI I am back....can anyone help me with the an5s and an6. I have the last an5, but am missing the others.

6:22 pm

well nrkii, that's about how i did today.

6:22 pm

jee, for the an 6, add a vowel to the an 5 you have

6:22 pm

I have 88 and checked list once to see how it works, just to know the first tw letters I was missing.... but I don't think I'm getting much more on my own.... have slowed way down

6:22 pm

nrkii means add a vowel to end a marriage sans divorce.

6:22 pm

anyone have the al 7

6:23 pm

hi nrkii and JeeWhiz!

6:23 pm

and then there is the first 5/10, add the beginning of a big grey animal

6:23 pm

my big weakness is keeping out of the chat when I'm trying to go on my own... the chat is entertaining, so it's hard not to read along

6:23 pm

al7 is just like el7, which means joy

6:23 pm

ah, thanks...I tried that marriage one earlier, but didn't double the consonant.

6:23 pm

but last night, about 4 minutes into the chat, someone was already asking for help on the 9, so I turned it off

6:24 pm

hi Kristin

6:24 pm

you are the best hursh

6:24 pm

nrkii...yeah I like to wait at least until the next day to break down and beg for clues

6:25 pm

hi kristin!

6:25 pm

hi hi guys

6:26 pm

Hey kristin, nice to meet ya.... wife and I are moving to Tacoma in a year

6:26 pm

Hurshy, on the one with the gray animal, am I starting on the second or third row a?

6:26 pm

6:26 pm

6:27 pm

hi everyone. Back for some more torture with this grid. Whats with the large grey elephant?

6:27 pm

6:27 pm

Tacoma or Olympia

6:27 pm

6:27 pm

6:27 pm

thanks Eva, I was thinking wolf, which obviously didn't work in this grid.

6:27 pm

sorry,sorry,sorry

6:28 pm

hurshy, btw, I saw what you meant about reading back through the chat logs to better understand all the goings on -- it's never quite as black and white as people suggest I guess

6:28 pm

np np np

6:28 pm

your welcome, but what' s it a clue for

6:28 pm

an5/10, first one

6:28 pm

6:34 pm

dax, it's what you put in your engine

6:37 pm

I need to do that to finish:-))

6:38 pm

musicmom, are you anywhere near Mason, OH?

6:38 pm

al728 and the al5/10 before it pleeeease?

6:38 pm

I could have done the 5 miles but I was walking with one of my Kindermusik moms. She needed help with her 3 year old and 10 month old. They couldn't do the whole way

6:38 pm

bonkler, al 7 is like the el 7

6:38 pm

al7 is the same as your el7

6:38 pm

and al 5 is similarly parallel

6:38 pm

Nrkii -- I am about 2.5 hours from Mason. I grew up about 45 minutes from there in Fairfield. Why? Are you there?

6:38 pm

thanks nrkii

6:39 pm

my brother and family are in Mason

6:39 pm

you betcha bonk

6:39 pm

We head that way frequently because my mom is still in Fairfield

6:40 pm

I haven't been to visit yet, but I know they really love it out there.

6:41 pm

oa + 10

thx nrkii

6:42 pm

bye kristin and bonkler

6:42 pm

boy, trying to access the chat log from earlier in the day, since the format change, is really a losing proposition. Most of the time I end up having to force quit. Too bad, because I really used to enjoy floowing the thread of conversation and clues

6:42 pm

bye kristin!

6:42 pm

bye bonkler!

6:42 pm

eva - i find that it appears to freeze up the program but that if i just wait long enough, it comes through ok. these days computers are so super-speedy i'm not used to that! :)

6:43 pm

I usually open a second browser window and let it do its work there

6:43 pm

I've waited quite a long time, but now that I know that it stalls out on you too, I'll give it more time

6:43 pm

yes, of course, a second window

6:44 pm

Does anyone have a handy list of the 7's that they'd like to share?

6:44 pm

If it feels too early for that kind of list, feel free to tell me. I don't want to spoil the hunt for anyone else.

6:45 pm

al, el, et, in, ki, la

6:45 pm

pe, po, sa, se, ti, tr

6:46 pm

what's wrong with seitan?!

6:47 pm

Thank you guys for the fe8, i finally got it, what a chore that was.

6:47 pm

thanks nrkii!

6:48 pm

sa7 and da6/21 please and thanks?

6:49 pm

eva - i wouldn't worry about asking for that sort of thing - if anyone doesn't want to be seeing stuff- as i don't when i start out - they can hide the chat log.

6:49 pm

jee, SA = condiment + picnic pest

6:49 pm

Thanks for the reassurance hurshy.

6:50 pm

Thanks Nancy, I figured it might have that seasoning.

6:50 pm

Yeah - don't worry about it Eva.

6:50 pm

da 6/21 green lettuce stuff backwards, then vowel.

6:50 pm

da 6/21 = salvador DA** with "** the world turns" in the middle

6:50 pm

nice hurshy!

6:50 pm

Okay, that is one strange word. Thanks for the interesting clue Hurshy.

6:50 pm

that one really makes us get creative - i like yours nrkii!!

6:51 pm

yes, tough to clue that and no fish anywhere in site for those not getting it

6:51 pm

Yeah, where are those s and re words today? Kind of miss them when they are gone.

6:51 pm

wow needed that clue thanks!

6:52 pm

but we have the tions today jee

6:52 pm

Not me Jee --- happy to only see one r word

6:52 pm

As long as there are a few suffixes and prefixes, I am happier.

6:53 pm

6:53 pm

hello again folks, does anyone have the ni 6's?

6:53 pm

6:59 pm

7:01 pm

Svet, ni6/21 is like ni6/18; change the last letter to a 4th alpha

7:01 pm

7:02 pm

Thanks hetty.

7:02 pm

Minski, Nu6/21 you just add the second part of MU**** (as in Ninjahs

7:02 pm

7:02 pm

nu 6 is like the teenage mu**** ninja turtles, only make it a verb

7:02 pm

lol, great minds hetty

7:03 pm

Thanks for the Nu.

7:03 pm

You and me both, Leslie Ann. I'm in goodly company

7:03 pm

ok Im done and it says I still need 124 4 letter words

7:04 pm

how about a clue for the la7?

7:04 pm

1 I have 125/5 letter words and theres only 66

7:04 pm

la not child not adult, somewhere in the middle.

7:04 pm

eva, another word for bathroom, a la*****, take out the r

7:05 pm

eva la 7/28 is la + a word fro person past child's age but net yet adult, plural

7:05 pm

and plural

7:05 pm

yep

7:05 pm

64 6 letter words and theres 39

7:05 pm

thanks everyone-great group effort!

7:06 pm

it says I have a 10 letter word and there are none!

7:06 pm

shorty, either you are the smartest woman alive, or you have a really weird glitch

7:07 pm

how about the et and the in 7's?

7:07 pm

its been doing that for the last 3 days

7:08 pm

e + to 5/10 and plural

7:08 pm

et 6/18 - french for star et 7 is plural

7:08 pm

thanks-so random whichfrench words are legit and which not

7:09 pm

not only that Eva but "latin" is NOT a word

7:10 pm

and, as I mentioned before, seitan is not allowed, and it is absolutely a word. Don't like eating it, but should be able to enter it for the grid

7:11 pm

It insists that everything like "latin" is a proper noun

7:11 pm

oh i've never heard that word before, eva, i thought you were just having fun. what is it?

7:11 pm

seitan, not latin

7:11 pm

in,7. please

7:12 pm

Svet, French for useless

7:12 pm

seitan is a gluten based non-meat protein source, used sort of like tofu by vegetarians. You can google it

7:12 pm

in plus ut5

7:12 pm

Thanks again andy,for the second french word

7:13 pm

so much french, so little time

7:13 pm

de rien madamme

hello everyone...i've been playing for awhile, and i've never finished one. i was going to make this my first...i am getting frustrated

7:14 pm

sorry i don't know french and i only have one ut an dthat's he one to undo.

7:14 pm

this is a hard one to start! how many do you have left, rant?

7:14 pm

j'ai pas parle francais depuis longtemps, et j'ai oublie beaucoup, mais je peut comprendre des choses faciles

7:14 pm

the ut 5 is u + ti 4/4, svet

that's too embarrasing too say, leslie :)

7:15 pm

Eva - you are doing much better than I

but it's the first night i've had with no distractions

7:15 pm

fair enough. just ask if you want clues, though.

7:15 pm

me too, eva.

thanks :)

7:16 pm

When I went to school the only choices for foreign languages were French or Latin....not very useful these days

7:16 pm

rant, do you know about the resource links at the bottom of the page that can provide you with lists, etc?

7:16 pm

thank you Les got it.

mab--yes, i might use it...trying not too yet

7:17 pm

agreed Eva but Latin isa foundation for all western European languages

7:17 pm

now if there were german words in the gird, I'd be completely lost.

7:17 pm

yes-I wouldn't mind taking it now

7:18 pm

speaking of which, i just spent about 10 minutes finding the la 5/18!

7:18 pm

what stops you Eva?

7:18 pm

er wait, i think that's mediterranean

7:20 pm

other things I'd rather do with my time, but also tried learning Spanish a couple of years ago and found the memorization part much, much harder at 56 than it was at 16! Also, without a situation in which to use it frequently, it just doesn't take. When I studied french I was in class 5 days a week and then lived in france for 4 months.

7:20 pm

i'm having trouble with this grid, just generally. Just one of those days, i expect.

7:21 pm

mab-I think it's an exceptionally difficult grid

7:21 pm

My back is really beginning to hurt, so I dont think I;m going to be able to stick with this for much longer.

7:22 pm

it's good to know it's not just me, Eva.

7:22 pm

Andy, where is Calgary?

7:22 pm

agreed Eva, learnig a language MUST entail frequent usage otherwise it is no good. I lived in Spain for 2 years 1989-1991 and while I spoke nearly perfect Spanish (as per my ex-girlfriend) I am uite rusty today, Can undersatnd 99% but cannot speak properly anymore

7:23 pm

Eva - western Canada - just noth of Montana, 60 muinutes from the best skiing in the world - am going skiing tomorrow (last day of the season)

7:23 pm

also oil capital of Canada, think Houston North lol

7:23 pm

in mid-may! it must be pretty cold up there

7:23 pm

My Hebrew had also gotten to a point where I could get along quite well, when I was going to Israel regularly, but now I get incredibly tongue tied and self-conscious when I try to speak

7:24 pm

nope it is 80 outside

7:24 pm

but mountains we go to are 8000 feet

7:24 pm

pshaw, the best of both worlds, then

7:24 pm

yep - a small city (1 million) - ;perfect nature for hking / slkiing - hey my 4 year old daughter can ski by herself

7:25 pm

Must be beautiful there! Always wanted to do the Northwest. And take the Trascanadian railway. We're about 2 hours from Montreal, in Vermont. Waiting for snow tonight.

Ancient Hebrew, for the most part. I need those vowels.

7:28 pm

i'm getting PO'd and the po's. Any help for po 7/32 and po 6/21?

7:28 pm

Funny how the absence of vowels stopped bothering me at some point. But my grasp of the tenses is pretty rudimentary. Also, having grown up without it, the gender stuff in Hebrew, Spanish, etc is odd

7:28 pm

i only have 6/21 - po + u**** we meet again - drop the u

7:29 pm

dax-po7/32 is the verb form for creating verse

7:29 pm

Guten Abend, everyone. My daughter just asked me a question that one of you Scrabble lovers out there can answer, I hope. What happens if the player opening the game doesnt have any vowels to make a word? ti 5/18 is a herbal tea, ti + sa 4

7:59 pm

ti plus sa4, an infusion of herbs, etc, like a tea.

8:00 pm

yw jeffer ti 6/18 = ti + good menatl health (adj)

te 6/18 is te 5/10 preceding with a stick added

rumple, make a noun out of the di 6 for the di 8

8:06 pm

In Scrabble, as far as I know, a person has to play with the tiles they have or turn them in & forfeit the turn, no matter what the conditions. Erda's showing examples of non-vowel "words" -- just make sure they're in whatever dictionary the players are using :) Or else make up a "house rule" to cut some slack, but don't expect outside players to agree ;)

8:06 pm

sa 9 is a greeting without the u

UPDATE on my Grandson who was hit yesterday on his Harley. He has a broken hand, stitches in his forehead, banged up knee and LOTS of skin burn, slid 300 feet. I just gave him gentle hugs, so glad he is alive.

10:09 pm

hetty, when your faucet lets out water a drop at a time when you don't want it to, you say it ***ps... add those three letters to IN

10:09 pm

Got it, nrkii, but only because of blind faith in the clues--coudn't see the words on te grid. Does this happen to you too sometimes?

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

it'a happing right now hetty.

10:10 pm

10:11 pm

one of the na 6/18s is killing me! i have the country, and the one that's almost the same except for the middle letter

10:11 pm
