12:16 am

I'm exuding the se 9 right now.

12:16 am

um i'm not sure what the wa means, but it starts similar to a chinese appetizer

12:16 am

oh, i think it is like a hedonist?

12:17 am

more hedonistic...

12:17 am

th9 - a nice compound word!

12:17 am

oh that makes sense, i was thinking it was refering to a person

12:17 am

mr. p you are on a roll tonight!

12:18 am

but does sound like the chinese appetizer wa 6/30

12:18 am

i think i need a snack

12:19 am

yup libarebel agree

12:19 am

have fun lesleann

12:19 am

12:20 am

bleh...only 200 to go!

12:20 am

sorry am tyoping in a wrong field

12:20 am

*sigh* only halfway done with the S....

12:20 am

I am not wonderwoman but I cannot get it

12:21 am

suet

12:21 am

in order to be no9, you are not superman or wonderwoman

12:21 am

oooh, thanks ;)

12:21 am

hiya all

12:23 am

hee hee... the server seems slow-- cursor change from one field to anothe does not take place immediately, so, players type in wrong field

12:23 am

also typing input is slowed

12:24 am

whoa, it took me 5 words to see "these". I like the TV/VCR overlap there though :P

12:24 am

now to the st's ... almost ready to take on the missing word.

12:24 am

folks, can we not type words in the puzzle into the log, please?

12:24 am

nope cannot find the 9

12:25 am

I figured that one was safe due to being directly written out in the puzzle, sorry leslieann

12:25 am

I'm with dinks... can I have a bit more? mrp -- It's 10:25 pm here and my eyes are so tired!

12:25 am

that's ok, a few others had too so i thought i'd crack the whip :)

12:25 am

it is an easy one, so don't fret! we all do it at some stage!

wowie - got 3 8s so far none lead to the 9 yet....

12:26 am

hi, LeslieAnn, in all fairness to players, it's te slow server connection, I think ;)

12:26 am

leslieann...what snack did you bring us?

12:26 am

its early morning here and the eyes have not woken yet, or the brain

12:26 am

hmmm. "wank" isn't in the dictionary.

12:26 am

okay, I'll play with it tomorrow. Talk to you all then!

12:27 am

dinksbumps, same here i still can't figure out the 9.. :(

12:27 am

sarah......

12:27 am

by stid, take care!

12:27 am

just some yogurt, kristin, nothing too exciting :)

12:27 am

12:27 am

12:28 am

12:28 am

12:28 am

weirdly, there isn't an no8 with the alternate spelling he5/12.... not in the dictionary

12:28 am

nope cannot find it

12:29 am

hmm, who can spot the pregnant lady in here?? ;)

12:29 am

i thought that was weird too, ornith

12:29 am

12:31 am

finally got the no 9..tnx all.. :)

12:31 am

I haven't help help

got all the ks :)

12:31 am

now to the missing S

12:31 am

oh, nice one melon

12:32 am

yes please! It has to be obscure cause the other s words are not!

12:32 am

I'm impressed shade, I'm only 2/3's there

12:32 am

wa9... we have had that before!

12:33 am

any clue for it mr.p?

12:34 am

se9? anyone?? :S

hey, this afternoon, anytime a word was inadvertently tped, we pushed it down by building a sentence - one word at a time. it got hilarious. can't remember to whom i should give credit. liba you were there, yes?

12:46 am

saaaaarrrraaahhhh.......

12:46 am

mark: think 2 prepositions combined

liba!

12:47 am

sofe

12:47 am

hurshy's been doing that the past week...playing it down

12:47 am

shleeeeeeaaaaa!

12:47 am

oops

12:47 am

playing what down?

12:47 am

I got Molly! She's sleeping at the end of my bed right now in her portacrib

12:48 am

oh, the entries on the log.... got it!

12:48 am

people typing words in the chat box

12:48 am

wassup, checking in just before I go to sleep. did your sister have her baby?

yup - hurshy.

12:48 am

and then people make silly senteneces out of them

12:48 am

usually I am here for computer (server) snafus, 12:46 am melonheadjujube, not today, but connection has been tentativ at best... :]

12:49 am

Yeah, she had a c-section on Friday night. Charlotte is the name and she was 8 lbs 15 oz. HUGE! Well at least compared to the 1st who was only 3 lbs 5 oz

12:49 am

MrPres, i got a th7, but dont know if im on the right track

stone

server or your ISP? - sometimes SBC/ATT dsl is beastly slow.

soup

12:49 am

Charlotte is halfway between my boys, one was 9.5 the other 8.5... how are they doing?

12:49 am

solid as a rock

tastes

without

12:50 am

I'm slowly going blind over here

12:50 am

without

too

much

12:50 am

congrats, auntie wassssssssup

salt

12:50 am

mark! very much close to it

12:50 am

(and who's Molly?)

12:50 am

and

12:50 am

people who type in chat box should always remember to use the TAB. After chatting pressing TAB the cursor moves out of the Chat box, this will help them while they are typing the words for the grid. Others will not see the words by this method. So however slow is the server TAB is good for babbling. Is this para long enough melonheadjujube

12:50 am

pepper

12:50 am

melonheadjujube-- did you mean the conversation in which the housewife committed murder?

12:51 am

They're ok. Molly is the other baby, my 1st niece

12:51 am

I bet SueQ is just bursting with pride!

12:51 am

without the best...

12:51 am

Ah! of course. Well, I need to trim Tom's hair before I can lie down. Blessings upon you and your family, wassup. hope your sister recovers nicely. :-)

12:51 am

oh yeah. the baby is perfect too. no health issues this time.

whaaa? must missed that one. i was in for the ante up before ishoot your lily-livered bowlegged dog.

glad to hear about a healthy bab. {{{{joy}}}

12:52 am

heyyyy, thanks melon :P

12:52 am

oooh molly! i was just thinking of chewing on her thigh

12:52 am

thank stid and melon. we're all really happy

12:53 am

f8/65 (i'm not sure if someone called that one earlier or not, but i found it and i'm so happy)

12:53 am

okay, I can't find it.

12:53 am

yeah, good thighs for the chewing... :)

12:53 am

nice, corps

12:53 am

do u have clues fror the f8?

got the se 9!

12:53 am

even hit the word list and I couldn't find it using that. it's anyone's guess.

12:53 am

clues, i need clues

12:54 am

f8: type of kissing

12:54 am

f8/65: slang for deep kissers involving tongue

hint se 8 is se 9 minus an inner letter - it is an enzyme.

12:54 am

lol, mark, the f8 starts with a country's people

12:54 am

plural of fr6/33

12:55 am

oh an enzyme, why didn't you say so? ;)

12:55 am

ah ha

12:55 am

and the se8....?

12:55 am

i concur with Ornith

12:55 am

wait, I have an se9 and it isn't an enzyme...

leslie ann - i just did ;)

12:56 am

se8 = se9 minus a vowel

se9 is not the enzyme - but se 8 is.

12:56 am

im surprised that "one who fr8" is not accepted

12:56 am

ahhhh

12:56 am

ahhhh don't want to even look at an S right now

12:56 am

ok...i need both the se8 and the se9...clues?

mi 2 mark

12:57 am

se9 is a general term for something produced organically

12:57 am

whoa! got the 9!

12:57 am

ah, se8 is the enzyme

12:57 am

mark, think of something that is leaked for the se 9

12:57 am

it's easier to get the se9 and work backwords

12:58 am

i got that one too. great minds....

12:58 am

I think now we freedom, nor fr****-- f8/65

th 9 - two prepositions

12:59 am

wassup, great clue!!

12:59 am

i would have gotten it faster if someone said se +cr6/21

12:59 am

for the 8...

12:59 am

but, of course vive la france!

12:59 am

wow, just noticed that there are 4 9s...thought i had conquered that quest...

liba - somehow patriotism doesn't enter my mind when smooching!

tho i dont have the se9

i have the se 9 th 9 and no 9 - what's the other////

116 words, and i need to sleep.. night all!

1:01 am

1:01 am

tx LA

1:02 am

ashley, is it flooded there? they're showing it flooding all over right where you live

th 9 leads to an h 8.

1:03 am

i'm watching the news right now and its like blocks from us, but not at the old homestead

1:03 am

thonk. it's onomonapoia. when you get hit in the head with a ball. thonk.

1:03 am

good, they showed the kgw studio and said they "experienced some flooding" there.

1:04 am

but there was a tree down after the tunnel that completely blocks both market st exit and I405 South

i still dont have the th9...i have the 7....?

1:04 am

it was insane

1:04 am

th 5/12 (not the one straight across) + un 4/5

1:04 am

1:05 am

bummer, it's not even raining here anymore.

ah ha...thx Leslie

well, i have wa 8/60 now for the 9 - related????

yep it is

pluralize

1:05 am

1:05 am

yup, use a different e at the end, it'll lead you over

1:06 am

week

i got the 8 in a different direction - had to look again....

1:06 am

ok now i am just making up words that start with v and it's taking them...

1:06 am

oogah - oogah!

1:06 am

got the th 9..tnx leslieann...now for the wa 9...

1:06 am

man, that rain was INTENSE in NE Pdx earlier.... and one of my cats was outside, poor thing -DRENCHED!! Luckily he's too non-bright to remember the trauma & is acting completely normal now :)

pluralize

1:07 am

good night ashley, vino sounds good. say hi to the bro.

1:07 am

flerie, builds off wa 6/30, sounds like a chinese appetizer

1:07 am

wa9=plural of wa8

1:07 am

k : )

1:07 am

huh. how can the -er of wa6/30 exist but not the -est?

1:08 am

oh that sucks missyem. we were at my parents house and were very happy to have let the dogs in the house before we left. i love storms

1:08 am

oh, because apparently it's a noun. weird.

think im gonna call it quits at 126 words... bed is calling me

1:08 am

that would use the same t, ornith

126, 5.04, 1969 pts

1:08 am

how many wa 6/30 are there?

1:08 am

yeah, I enjoyed the lightning, I miss it from my little kid days back East

1:08 am

oh. but it said not in the dictionary.

1:08 am

nice, mark. good night!

its -er to make a noun, not tointensify the adjective. -est is superlative - is there a term for the -er suffix? pre-superlative. superduperlatice?

1:09 am

*blink* there's an hw?!

1:09 am

comparative, melon

tx - my brains turning to cottage cheese.

1:09 am

i love the thunder. it makes me want to get in jammies and drink hot chocolate. too bad it's still like 75 degrees right now. i'm sweating...

hw, eh?

1:10 am

yeah, hw4/9. looks like a job for monkeytyping.

1:10 am

1:13 am

1:13 am

1:13 am

tnx all..got the 9s...

if you say it LOUD ENOUGH

1:13 am

you'll always sound precocious

1:20 am

yes, what is it that henchmen do?

1:20 am

1:20 am

hither and an4/4

1:28 am

BEEP!

1:29 am

1:31 am

Could we PLEASE be more careful about posting words in the log?

1:31 am

oops -tian rather but not as promising as -tion

broll, it happens. noone's prefect.

lol

1:32 am

whoa, monkeytypin' in the Es

1:32 am

that's not true, I know people who were prefects in their private high schools.

1:32 am

only a cretin would post a word in the log.

1:32 am

Think before you type. This is supposed to be a thinking game!

1:32 am

good morning everyone:)

1:32 am

*pffft* nice.

oh, reeeeeeeely?

1:32 am

Ornith-- an**- the origin of the fart-- that one? :)

good morning jean, we need someone to class this joint up. help!

1:33 am

1:33 am

And obviously some do!

1:33 am

well ive just read some of the log and hope that I dont become a cretin this morning lol

1:33 am

and he used another one in that sentence

2:14 am

a T word

we already have that 1!!

2:15 am

do you know about lickety's word list, p+m?

2:16 am

there is an S word that means smelly

2:16 am

ok, does it help if I tell you that an4/5 means a word that starts with an, has 4 letters, and is word 5 points?

2:16 am

two smelly s-words actually

2:16 am

well, I'm stuck - knutmeg, did you find all 32 s-words?

nope we dont get it ornith!! thanx 4 trying tho!!! we r pretty dumb!!!!!!!!

2:18 am

yeah, can't make that fit

2:19 am

hmm, ok. the word that's in the middle of your face would be no4/4. the word that's written right there in the row above the bottom row would be th5/12.

dont worry bout explaining coz we still dont get it!!!!!! but thanx 4 trying!!!

2:20 am

(4 letter word = base points, 5 letter word = 2x points, 6 letter word = 3x points, and so on)

hm words do u guys have?

2:22 am

there is a link below in the friends of babble section, read the explanation of the scoring and that will help you use lickety's list

Is the second ec 5/14 a variation of all the ECs just before it?

2:59 am

if there was one more I we would have a very tasty italian dish served as an appetizer

3:00 am

It is Samantha

3:01 am

although I only have the one ec5/14, so I don't know which one you're looking for...

D'OH!!!!!! It would have helped if I'd counted them correctly; I just spent five minutes searching for a word I already had

3:03 am

how many ec words are there? (I don't want to go to the list quite yet...)

Seven, in total. Basically two words, though.

3:03 am

i don't have the list yet

3:03 am

okies, thank you :)

I have one of the FO 6s; does anyone have a tip for the other?

3:12 am

help please, I need one more e, from the left side, I have..ec4/6, ec5/14, ec4/6, ec6/24, ec7/36, ec5/14, en4/8, thanks! :)

You're missing a second 6/24, which comes between the 7/36 and the second 5/14. It's a variant spelling of the second 5/14

3:14 am

you need one more ec6/24

3:15 am

TY Samantha and 9tanks! I'll go look :)

3:15 am

SamJ - Which fo6 do you have?

Well, I have an fo**** borther

Errrr, brother

3:16 am

fo 6/30 is a variant sp. of unborn child

Oh! I don't think I've ever seen that spelling in print before. Thanks so much!

3:18 am

Has anyone gotten the 9 letter word yet? It's got me completely stumped.

Well, I have two of them. Are some already well extablished?

3:20 am

my goodness, I didn't notice there were more than one... this is so not my day :)

3:21 am

i have all the nines

*patpatpat* There, there, KittyVane.

3:21 am

To my defence, I did only get up about and hour and a half ago

You know what? I need to *get up* in about an hour and a half. I am signing off now, for the second time today. See y'all later.

3:23 am

b'bye Samantha!

3:23 am

Good morning all - are all the Brits asleep or buried in the grid?

3:24 am

3:25 am

Good morning sha!

Happy Monday morning to everyone!!! actaully it's raining but I'm trying to be positive :)

3:28 am

3:28 am

morning fran and fmitch

3:28 am

Good morning FMitch!

morning/eveing all!

3:30 am

mrpresident - good evening to you!

3:30 am

Hi Haz, sha, Fran and MrP I was hoping for a somewhat smaller grid today but it seem it is not to be.

3:30 am

I feel like a smaller grid as well, but once you start....

Morning Haz and FMitch! big grids are the in thing I guess! I would love a little grid again!

3:32 am

I'm off to do all things housewifey before I go blind from staring at the grid too hard. Later everyone! :)

3:33 am

yea, something aroud 150 would have done nicley today. Bye Kitty

3:33 am

Bye KittyVane!

3:34 am

What's the betting on ex-Wren playing? Two places for re words...

3:35 am

Oh I wonder how many re's there are today and sprite won't like the k's

the k's are actually decent!! no stupid ones!

3:36 am

I was looking at the letters earlier and although not playing, almost succcumed when I spotted and f6 that builds to an f8!

3:38 am

Thank you - or should I say, merci?

3:39 am

... and silence fell in the log whilst everyone went hunting the elusive f's LOL Haz

3:41 am

Hello Everyone!

3:41 am

Hello Preethi, are you well?

3:42 am

Morning/afternoon? Preethi

3:44 am

MrP, is maddie feeling better?

Hey everyone - Thanks to KnutMeg for the missing S word. Clues updated again.

yes she is, ... she is doing well thanks!!

3:45 am

Cheers lickety

3:45 am

Thank you very much lickety - we appreciate your help!

No Probs Haz! Love it. Do you like the extra stats?

3:47 am

I like the fact that I can check off how many words of each two letter value there are without having to count! The whole page is a great help!

3:48 am

hear hear!!! I'll second that :) I like the breakdown by 2nd letter summary list as that indicates what the grid is going to be like.

3:49 am

I'm laughing at myself being pleased at having found two 8 letter words - there are 10 of them!

3:52 am

There's a glorious cr8/45 from the bottom corner. Think of painting fences.

Haz, thankfully only one of the 8 words is clue worthy... the others are nice easy ones once you get the root words!

and that was the clue worthy one!

3:53 am

Oh good - so the rest are just waiting to be spotted!

oh yes! nice ones that come along with the rest!

3:55 am

OK time for me to be off and get the work machine rolling but I will be lurking in the background. Happy babbling

bye FMitch!!

3:56 am

Have a good day FMitch - and don't forget to back me up if necessary!!

3:57 am

< waving byeee > I'll be there Haz, you just let me know ;)

3:57 am

Okay - see you later!

Haz, I am curious! back you up??

3:59 am

A little clash of personality, shall we say? Last night's chat log, from around 6pm....

4:00 am

ya re8.

oh dear! Haz!! Not nice sweetie!

4:00 am

tee hee!!!!!

4:00 am

I shall lie low I think.....

4:01 am

now I am really going :)

4:01 am

Bye again!

4:01 am

MrP you're not showing up on yahoo

4:03 am

i'm sad that knute is not a word.

coming FMitch!!!!

4:12 am

just popped in to see if I could babble a bit.... I have been away and it seems now that I am back they are harder....LOL

4:12 am

Good morning Blaze - this is quite a nice grid today, although perhaps a little too big for comfort.

hey every1!!!!

4:13 am

comfort and insominia seems to be opposites.... LOL

4:13 am

Well, hello you two!

clues pls???

4:14 am

Okay - some to start you off. an4/4 - little insects, ec4/6 - what you hear when you shout in a big empty room.

4:16 am

ro4/4 - a flower, fr6/33 - a language, et4/4 a volcano in Sicily

4:16 am

he4/5 - Superman is one of these, and add an s for he5/12

4:17 am

paige & maddie, you're back!

4:17 am

ho4/9 is the sound that a goose or a car horn makes, ho4/5 is someone in charge of a party

4:18 am

kn4/8 and kn5/18 - you do this with needles and wool, kn4/8 and 5/18 - you make these with string, or rope.

Hey Haz - back again. The stats I was refering too was the biggest words in the last 39 grids (that'll keep growing), and also the words that keep appearing as well.

4:18 am

no4/4 - everyone needs one of these to smell with!

4:19 am

Yes, the recurring words one is useful - I'm finding that some words repeat themselves quite often in grids and it's good build up a database of them.

when I get spare moments I try to add more grids back in time! Oh lickety GET A LIFE! heheheheheh

4:21 am

As long as you enjoy it, where's the harm? I wouldn't have a clue where to start with it all, but I do appreciate the help it gives me in solving these things!

4:21 am

does anyone have a clue for the 3rd wa 6/30?

4:22 am

help with re8 please

To be honest I'm in awe over all you babblers - I don't know how you know so many words. Clues really don't help much - just give it a bit of structure and a system to it

4:22 am

Good morning ylleria - I only have the one wa6/30 (one who requires) but you probably have that.

4:22 am

never mind, got it

4:23 am

i need the 1st one if anyones got it

4:23 am

morning haz - don't worry about it, I got it anyway

4:23 am

lickety - I don't know all the words by any means! When I run dry on my own, I use your list and look up morewords.com for the rest.

4:23 am

Thanks ylleria - now I'll have to look for myself!

4:24 am

oggy, I don't know if the first one is the restaurant worker?

4:25 am

haz - there's an 8 and 9 that come off the 3rd wa 6 as well

Oh Haz - I know how good you are ;-) Those who claim to do it all from memory are either one of those 'special' people or full of sh4,4!

4:25 am

and the first one is the restaurant worker

4:26 am

Now I'm really laughing, lickety!

4:26 am

that's all the w's down :)

Wasn't there someone like that yesterday?

you mean 'special'... or full of it??

4:27 am

You're not going to draw me any further on that one!

4:27 am

good morning all!

4:27 am

clue for that 3rd wa6?

4:28 am

wa6/30 - a word meaning immoral or unchaste

Come one Haz - sit back and have a chocolate bar fun ride with me ;-)

4:29 am

thanks haz-had that one but didn't know it was the third, so just got the 8 from it.

or a fruit sorbet ;-)

4:29 am

Eva - pluralise it and you get the 9.

4:30 am

how can there be a plural of an adjective? i.e. wa9? Must mean something else?

Well I gotta go make trouble elsewhere now - Have fun everyone. bye for now.

4:31 am

lickety you little devil you!!!! Haz - look out for an email

4:31 am

bye licketysplit!

Bye Everyone - A Clue before I go : USE THE LIST!

LOL!!

or I'll come get ya!

4:32 am

when I glance at past scores I realize that there are many babblers who play without chatting, and possibly without the aid of any clues or lists, and get all of the words every day. Must be a different species.

hehhehehehe - mmmm 'special' indeed. GOtta RUN - Outta here!

4:34 am

lickety - be good!

Actually - just before I go, I have to explain that my chats sound like I'm trying to be bossy - We'll I'm not - I'm just being sarcastically funny. Be free, throw the list away, as long as you have fun and enjoy each others company!

4:36 am

We know, lickety - thanks for all your help.

4:37 am

And now I must go as well. I'll be back later hopefully.

4:37 am

Perhaps, Paige & Maddie, if you used proper English instead of mobile-phone text language, we might be able to understand you

ppl do understand us!!!!!!! dont u????????

4:56 am

you don't suck. It just takes practice and patience, and experimenting. Start with the ones that come easily to you and then you will begin to see the longer ones

we have!!!!

5:03 am

lol!

5:03 am

no words on the chat are allowed

could u???

well can u give us anuther clue pls?

5:04 am

Paige & Maddie, the no7 starts with the french word for 'no' and + the rest of it is he4/5... then plural it using another vowel as well as the 's'

5:05 am

i got 32 words and i am going to stop

we still dont get it!!!! sorry!

5:06 am

so bye

5:06 am

p&m - did you get the he4/5 and he 6/21?

bye maddison!!!!!!!!

wat does that mean jaiel???

5:07 am

do you know the french for no? add the superman word to it.

5:08 am

p&m - he4/5 means there is a word that starts with he and it has four letters adding up to 5 points

5:08 am

to the right of the letter grid there is a box that is called "my word list" - it shows all the words you guessed correctly - you see it, yes?

5:09 am

if you look there, you will see if you found the word that starts with he and has 4 letters/5points

5:09 am

you do all realize they are trolls right?

yes thanx jaiel!

5:10 am

cat - is that for me?

5:10 am

5:14 am

heh, so you get to spend your parenthood trying to be incognito?

5:16 am

I do apologize if maddie wasn't a troll, so sorry. I spoke out of turn, obviously you all know her, accept my apologies.

sorry about paige and maddie guys! they only come on for a short time at the same time very night... they are loud and trollish, but best to amuse them! they will get bored and move on in due course!

5:44 am

i think it's the one that sounds like cattle

5:45 am

thats me finished wheres the fireworks gone : (

5:45 am

yay sha!!!

5:45 am

I haven't had fireworks in 3 days now, guess they are buggy.

sha gets *~*~*~FIREWORKS!~*~*~*

5:45 am

are they still broken? i haven't finished for a couple of days

5:46 am

So sha:

5:46 am

s~~~%%%~~~ Fireworks ~~~%%%~~~

5:46 am

i look forward 2 fireworks

5:46 am

MrP, I am sorry if I spoke out of turn, but they semed like trolls to me. Been around the web for years and they seemed like trolls. Besides, when I said trolls they acted like they knew nothing of which I spoke. I find it hard to belive there are 15 yr olds who don't know what trolls are. I ado apologize if I spoke out of turn, just been there, done that :)

5:47 am

well, that was a silly word

5:48 am

thanx guys bye for now

5:48 am

bye sha

cat, no apology necessary... they are no older than 11 !! you have the right feelings about them and I just amuse them until they disappear! there are a whole bunch of them from the same school on here and with a network like they have, I prefer to amuse them! LOL

they will grow tired of the game or grow up!

5:50 am

Whichever will come first ;)

5:50 am

TY Mrp, I just figure that I haven;'t been here long enough to complain :) Had a rough day and my mouth got away with me, normally I ignore trolls :)

;)) ah kids! they all live under bridges and demand money!!

5:51 am

lol

5:51 am

I like trolls - or do I?

5:52 am

Your two cats are beautiful together, mrP and Cat! And for a rough day, you get a (((((Cat))))

5:52 am

CJ: only nice ones. No internet trolls.

5:53 am

never attribute to mallice what is adequately explained by incompetence

5:53 am

Ah - yes they were a bit trying - can imagine them giggling away and picking their nose

5:53 am

aww, TY Sprite :) I spend all day and night taking care of my Mom, who is terminal, and I shouldn;'t take it on here

my cat has a helmet for a reason... those rough trolls are damaging! have to keep the hair-do pretty!

5:53 am

hello to everyone. i'm not sure who recommended using flickr.com to post photos - but thank you to whoever you are. if you want to see the results go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/cliffopa/

5:53 am

yes they are trying, and true, they giggle everytime they get someone to comply with their demands :)

5:54 am

Cat9x is that why your cat is sad? :(

5:54 am

He isn't sad, he got a bath :)

5:54 am

That is a helluva job, Cat, very demanding in every way. Whatever support there can be found in a chat like this, I send to you :)

5:54 am

5:54 am

5:56 am

I need to stop asking for clues - today I keep finding the words I'm after as soon as I've asked :)

5:57 am

Lol ylleria, that is a so-far-undiscovered law of nature, I am sure! Works almost every time ;)

5:57 am

5:57 am

No you didn't miss it FRan, just got to keep up with my name :)

5:57 am

well, I've got the 2 & 3rd ve 6/27s at least. still missing the first one

5:58 am

Doesn't work with K-words though. But I found half of them already, so I guess I'll live.

5:58 am

but if I can find them as soon as I've asked, that's got to be better than never being able to find tehm at all :)

5:58 am

ty trish - i was telling someone on saturday that i had taken hundreds of pics of my new kitten. a kind babbler directed me to the flickr site.

5:58 am

i know, it just seems like all the cat people are on right now, feel like i should change my icon to be in the chat tonight

very cute kitty cats cliff!!

5:59 am

it is a wonderful gallery tool, isn't it? :) That little cutie must have you following him around the house all day with the camera, lol.

6:00 am

fran, don't fret. some babblers never change their icons. dress however you please.

6:00 am

Are there any KW-words? Or is the fact that I am trying proof I am near the desperate state already?

6:00 am

Everyone calls me the Cat Lady as it is :) I have alot, plus I do rescue. I am the proverbial, older, Cat Lady :)

6:05 am

thats wonderful Trish! All it takes is a little work and patience, and they come around.

6:05 am

why isnt stonk a word?

6:06 am

well thank you so much. it took a bit for me to figure out how to upload so the streaming on the home page worked the way i wanted.

all my pussycats are rescue animals! good on you cliff and trish and Cat and everyone who rescues any animal!

6:06 am

TY and I agree Mrp!

6:06 am

Only one letter, CJ ;)

6:07 am

cj, you're not the only one who tried that, don't fret.

6:07 am

I have 2 rescues ferals that will never come around, so I have kept them. Most I have rescued however, do come around and have made wonderful companions.

6:08 am

TY everyone for saving my sanity one more night, but I must get to bed, goodnight all!

6:08 am

At least they are well cared for, Cat... you know you've at least saved them from the short, brutal terrified lives that many feral cats lead.

6:09 am

7:03 am

Hi Sprite. Shame wa4/12 isn't allowed. It's the first word I saw. LOL. The Welsh word for 'welcome' (croeso) isn't allowed either.:(

7:04 am

Enable is so very partial to what is accepted and what not :(

7:04 am

'Night FranMag. Sleep well. Don't dream of the grid.

jac, the cr8 comes off that welsh welcome!

7:05 am

jacula, i actually do, that's what's scary. hopefully i wake up with more words!

7:05 am

MrP - the shed and fence paint. I'd got that, thanks. Probably because we've been trying to do all the garden woodwork in between rain showers.

That 8 was one of the clueable words! I didn't know it was garden paint!

7:06 am

FranMag - you are not alone! (Why do you think I said it? LOL.)

is europe under a deluge at the moment??

7:06 am

MrP - it's a wood preserver.

7:07 am

Yes, lots of rain here at the moment, although the south of Britain has a drought.

7:07 am

It seems to be, mrP. We had a twister here yesterday, that almost never happens in Holland at all.

7:08 am

hi all - i have 3 eights - are there any more?

7:08 am

Sprite - Did it cause much damage? We had a thunderstorm or two but no twister, as far as I know.

oh boy! weather patterns are going crazy.... I will have to check up on you guys more often! it is a worry

7:08 am

sandr: 10 x 8 today, and 4 x 9.

7:09 am

oh great - and i though i was doing really well. lol

7:09 am

thanks mr P - for the preservation..of my sanity :)

7:09 am

No, did not do a lot of damage, wrecked a couple of beach pavillions. But for Holland it was special enough to make the newspapers, lol.

7:09 am

Hi all! Back to the daily routine. Mommy's gone home and now I'm sad...

7:10 am

I hope the weather is dry on 3rd June as I'm going to the Monsters of Rock Festival with my daughter and, whilst she might relish a Woodstock-style mudbath, I don't.

7:10 am

You are, sandr. I only have 1 x 8 so far, and only 3 of the 17 7s. I am being so blind today!

oh jac, you will love it!!

jai :))

7:10 am

7:10 am

Nah, sunny weather would be much better, Jac. I'll order some for you.

WTG sandr!!

7:11 am

MrP - Line-up so far is Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Ted Nugent, Queensryche. I'm hoping that Eurovision winners Lordi might turn up, too, as they truly ARE 'monsters of rock'. LOL.

7:12 am

Sprite - Thanks.:-)

Oh what a great line-up!! I am jealous to the core!!

7:12 am

Lordi were scary

7:13 am

7:46 am

7:49 am

7:49 am

melonheadjube thanks also

7:51 am

No shell, sinking would indicate that I don't have any body fat to stay afloat and that is definitely NOT the case. LOL

7:51 am

50 to go!

7:52 am

lol

7:52 am

Can't believe I found the He8 and did not see the Th9. This is definitely not my day.

7:56 am

Anyone else wanting to type venti (as in latte)?

7:57 am

i want to type velcro...but it's not working.

7:57 am

I've tried that one, Jen and also vector

7:58 am

7:58 am

7:58 am

55 u

7:58 am

7:58 am

almost, hurshy. You too?

7:59 am

nah, 43 to go

7:59 am

I need 51

8:00 am

oh, then ok :)

8:00 am

you'll beat me though. you always go faster than i do at the end.

8:00 am

At least I finally have the biggies now :) I still need a lot of 4s, they are easier.

8:01 am

i need 6 4's. :( i need several biggies still.

8:02 am

help with the TH9?

8:02 am

CJ: He8, but then at that place and not at this place.

8:03 am

odds that cj has the he8?

8:03 am

hurshy's bookmaking business opens...

8:03 am

you will lose hursy

8:03 am

lol

8:03 am

I never dare to underestimate CJ!

CJ rocks!

8:04 am

well i know a lot of people go for biggies first, that's all.

8:04 am

have been known to :)

8:04 am

being a bit slow today :)

8:05 am

Hey... I painlessly finished the S'ses today! That never happens :)

8:05 am

i don't think i've met you CJ, nice to meet you btw

8:05 am

that tea for me?

8:05 am

Im a uk lady bored at work

8:06 am

how do you do? :)

8:06 am

tea? it's milk.

8:06 am

i do ok.

8:06 am

the th9 does it include a type of bird?

8:06 am

from here it looks like a mug

8:07 am

no not quite CJ, the second vowel would be different

8:08 am

i mean, the second vowel SOUND...

8:08 am

T5/12 + U4/5 = 9

8:08 am

good morning! the th9 includes the he8

8:08 am

hmm everything i say when i read it again could be misleading.

8:09 am

i'm assuming there's an eu...? just don't know how long...

8:09 am

no Eu's

8:09 am

no eu

8:10 am

when I get the He8 then it will be easy hehe

8:10 am

hmmm... verrrrrry interesting

8:10 am

Shall I let you hunt for the Eu, hurshy, or shall I confess there isn't one?

8:10 am

See, better to be straight... I'd be found out immediately otherwise :)

8:10 am

too late for your wicked plot sprite!

8:10 am

he 8 = he 4/4 + un 4/5

8:11 am

Well, we are close to euro though. Uero looks interesting enough to be a word.

8:12 am

Good morning everyone... does anyone know how many ch words there are?

8:12 am

i think 5

8:13 am

I have 5, don't know if there are more.

8:13 am

I still fume that "tonk" is not a word. Like honky tonk!!!

8:13 am

well sprite, i don't think there can be.

8:13 am

hurshy: euston, this is groundcontrol, do you read?

8:14 am

lol sprite

8:14 am

TY Hurshy and Sprite, 5 sounds good to me (altho I only have 4 at least I knwo what I'm looking for)

8:15 am

dammit I dont have the he4/4

8:16 am

"They seek him H4, they seek him T5, T5 Fr8 seek him everywhere. Is he in heaven or is he in hell, that darn elusive Pimpernel"

8:16 am

darn? :)

8:17 am

Kateq he 8 = he 4/4 + un 4/5 Sure its not he4/4?

8:17 am

Nope. I was being watching my language ;)

8:17 am

and you forgot the gasp with hell :)

8:17 am

I mean He4/5?

8:18 am

He4/5, not He4/4. T5 can never be a He4/4.

8:18 am

LOL! Hurshy, darling, you KNOW your classics!

8:18 am

confused.com

OK, back again... sprite, how are you going??

8:18 am

sprite used a word, sprite used a wo-ord...! LOL

8:19 am

30 left, n4 of them biggies :)

8:19 am

see, already. 37 here.

8:19 am

Argh! Sprite says SORRY!

8:19 am

Ive got he4/5 as in miniature

8:20 am

CJ, you want the fish now or after you found He4? He4 = at this place. :D :D

8:21 am

miniature?

8:21 am

got he4 th5 and everywhere

8:21 am

are there any kh words today? Pease and thankyou, etc.

8:21 am

Good! That will lead you to the He8 and the Th9. Just combine with U4.

8:21 am

not heard or miniature He5/12? Chocolate

8:22 am

no kh

8:22 am

Thank god for small favours, no Kh today.

8:22 am

bugger. I was rather hoping there was cos Ive exhausted all other options. o well, back to drawing board.

8:22 am

i don't know the definitions of a lot of words, i just type them in...

8:23 am

Hey Thanks Guys.. Got the H8 and T9

8:23 am

Try Ka and Kn, Dachef. That will get you all of them :) (hear how proud I am I finished the buggers!)

8:23 am

sprite - got both fish - got them at the beginning

8:24 am

some clue for ka?

8:24 am

Good for you CJ!

8:24 am

k's are easy, it's long words that are hard.

8:24 am

Sprite~ just one KA?

8:24 am

2 ka

8:24 am

some clue plz?

8:24 am

peed off about the lack of cleverness with the TH9 and He8

8:24 am

u still in vicky

8:24 am

2x ka. Hurshy, Ks are NEVER easy. Long words can be easy. As long as they do not start with K.

8:24 am

kaon

8:24 am

got em. all hail the little grey boxes.

8:25 am

Yeah, that's one of them :)

8:25 am

the next one.. need some help

8:25 am

think and able diff spelling

8:25 am

but with long ones you never know if they are weird or not, and if they ARE weird you can forget monkeying them.

8:26 am

hehehe, CJ, lack of cleverness??? *hands CJ the proverbial fish*

8:26 am

thx preethi, that was the one I was missing! ;)

8:26 am

i cant get the other one

8:27 am

anytime :)

8:27 am

Oh, CJ, you have the Er6/30 too? It is related in a way :)

8:27 am

Brother of abel, preethi.

8:27 am

karenth meant brothers _____ and Abel, but spell the murderous one differently

8:27 am

no sprite not yet :(

8:27 am

Preethi, good clue below... ______ & abel (different spelling)

8:28 am

kanes

8:28 am

Preethi is on a posting roll :)

8:28 am

getting close...

8:28 am

aha, thanks sprite.

8:29 am

got er/5 vowel with a flower

8:29 am

:)

8:29 am

un 6& 7, please?

8:30 am

CJ: start with the He4 and work from there :) ylleria: people who bring people together

8:30 am

Got it!!

8:30 am

Thanks hurshy

8:30 am

WTG Preethi! And you did not post it in the log, which is even better ;)

8:30 am

and sprite

8:31 am

un 6 & 7: when you come together, you _______.

8:31 am

i'm assuming a couple u's have un as an actual prefix? besides the preposition?

8:31 am

sod going out its too wet and blustery and I need this annoying word to get on the list so I cant pester everyone for another clue for another word :-)

8:32 am

Only one, actually, hurshy.

8:32 am

one the preposition or one besides that?

8:32 am

I don't think the preposition qualifies. One beside that.

8:33 am

you're right, it doesn't, i need to wake up more.

8:33 am

I dont believe its a word so thats why I cant get it :(

8:34 am

CJ: He4 minus first letter + at this very time.

8:35 am

sprite could i have the 3rd letter on the prefix one?

8:35 am

Double me double you, hurshy :)

8:36 am

I think oreo should be a acceptable word!

8:36 am

well how on earth can that be a word!!!! wouldn't that just be lost???? good grief.

8:36 am

what are the alpha numeric's for the 9's? I have the HE...what are the others?

8:36 am

i dnt get it

8:37 am

If it was just "lost" then life would eb boring and we wouldn't have such *great* words to find! :)

8:37 am

He is an 8, not a 9 :) The Th9 is though.

8:37 am

sprite Er6 great - never hear of it but will stick like glue now

8:37 am

and wa and se and... something i hain't got yet

8:38 am

No9/60 you may find them in books... or not.

8:38 am

Great CJ :)

8:39 am

Darn. 12 left and almost all of them vowel words. I hate it when that happens.

8:40 am

12 left and i'll be here for hours with my 34 more

8:40 am

I need on O from the top right... I have a preposition and an animal sound...any help?

8:41 am

burden, bgl

8:41 am

on4/5 = burden

8:41 am

or responsibility

8:41 am

BGL: the exit of your behind, change first letter.

8:41 am

sprite LOL

8:41 am

Thanks. I love those grey letters!

8:42 am

That exit is in the grid too, btw.

8:42 am

what may you find in books or not? no4 + something?

8:42 am

Oh, Sprite. What a bum joke!;-)

8:43 am

The person the story centers around... or not.

8:43 am

hehe Jac ;)

8:43 am

Hello everyone -- I'm trying to work without a list today. See how long I can hold out.

8:43 am

protagonist? hmmm

Hey ARB, go for it!

8:44 am

THanks Sprite, that just gave me about 5 words!

8:44 am

well now i feel really dumb! :)

8:44 am

narrator?

8:45 am

Hurshy -- concentrate on the ...or not

8:45 am

wtg BGL :) Hurshy: much easier than that. And it is not N4 + something, but N3 + someones.

8:45 am

ARB. Hi. Well, I've reached 191 words without any lists so far...

8:45 am

hurshy--use a negative in front of the protagonist

8:45 am

aha.

WTG Jac!!

8:46 am

Good job, Jac! This grid can be done without lists, I think, but not without the clues in the log, LOL.

8:46 am

Today's chocolate is milkchocolate, even though I prefer dark bittersweet. In honor of...

8:47 am

hiya everyone!!!

8:47 am

You guys are excellent with clueing in! Wouldn't get through it without you all!

8:48 am

ne 7 any clue?

Hi bex!!

8:48 am

Trying to decide now whether to get a list or to have another break and go and cook chicken & make potato salad. Think I'll plump for the break; go and post my friend's b'day card whilst there's a lull in the rain. BBL.x

8:48 am

Actually, if we can have N9, why not N3 + H7?

8:48 am

Preethi: dead tissue.

8:48 am

Hey bex :)

8:49 am

chicken and potato salad? you're killing me jac.

8:49 am

ne7 looks to me to have something to do with dead bodies

8:49 am

Thanks for the dead tissue, Sprite!

8:49 am

oh sprite said that already

8:50 am

Hursh - got homemade coleslaw, too, and homemade fres fruit salad.:D

8:51 am

8:51 am

8:53 am

Okay, really going for a while now. x

8:53 am

8:55 am

i wonder if the biggies i have left are weird or not. other than that se8, sprite, are the 8's pretty normal?

8:55 am

I'm missing a 9 - I have n9, s9 & t9 what am I missing?

8:55 am

sorry sprite not u haha

8:55 am

wa9

Thanks, does the se9 work off of se8?

8:55 am

Thanks Jac

8:55 am

one letter diff marc

8:56 am

Insert one vowel, Marc. It's all about expression yourself :)

hurshy, they are easy words... you don't need clues for them! they extend off the root words you already have

8:56 am

YEAH! 9s are finished!

8:56 am

am off now bye every1 :)

8:56 am

hurshy, define normal, LOL. But yes, nothing fancy.

8:56 am

ok. and how about the 7's, any weirdos there?

Well, it is not the last letter which letter changes.

8:57 am

marc--think something that oozes from your body...

no weird 7's, they are plurals and such

8:57 am

you add one more letter near the end marc

8:58 am

Perhaps the i7, hurshy. You have that one already? And Ce7?

8:58 am

I cant get the se 9

8:58 am

i have a ce7 that's pl.

8:58 am

and i have 2 i7

8:59 am

preethi~ add another vowel toward the end of the 8

I added every letter possible for the last letter but none work. Oh let me try something else. One second.

8:59 am

io7 too?

Got it thanks

8:59 am

no indeedy not io

8:59 am

Marc you or the faith?

9:00 am

io + nothings.

9:00 am

*of

9:00 am

yup, that's a weirdo.

9:00 am

only 2 vowel words left now! :)

9:00 am

it doesnt work for me wither

9:00 am

half way there I have 130!

9:01 am

not AT the end, NEAR the end.

9:01 am

I said 'insert' a letter :)

9:01 am

I got that Sprite

9:01 am

Thanks :)

9:01 am

can I get a clue for the w9?

9:02 am

Alien: cruel or unchaste people.

9:02 am

wa6, behaving recklessly. wa8, you'd think was a comparative but apparently it's a noun cause you can pl for the 9

wa9 - cruel people... sounds like chines dumpling (makers) too

chinese! good lord, my kebyoard isn't worikng

9:03 am

TY all of you

9:03 am

hurshy~ I keep trying those CHinese dumplings in thnis grid... :)

9:03 am

I guess you have been drooling over your keyboard, just as hurshy just did, mrP. T-t-t.

9:03 am

i tried them just to make sure...

9:03 am

thank you....I got it...how strange.

9:04 am

9:08 am

9:08 am

9:10 am

If I can help with weirdo words... Do you have Tu6/27 (sounds jiddish) and Ve6/27 two words above the 'no - no way' word?

9:10 am

LOL mrp

shorty, my daughter is polluting me with this stuff!

9:11 am

oh no not yiddish, i'm horrid with yiddish

9:11 am

too funny

9:11 am

ooh got the yiddish

9:12 am

Ok, I looked it up and it is not yiddish. Def is black liquid used for drawing in lithography and as a resist in etching and silk-screen work.

9:12 am

ve 6/27 ish

9:12 am

ok that made no sense because i'm on the phone

9:12 am

lol!

9:13 am

good morning, Babble

9:13 am

There is 3x Ve6/27. Last one is weird to me. Anagram of the 2nd one.

9:13 am

Morning Angel :)

9:13 am

finally my icon changed

9:13 am

well i hain't got any of those! yay!

Hello Angel!!

9:14 am

ok got 2 and they are anagrams

9:14 am

Hurshy: the 3rd rhymes with the dead tissue N.

9:14 am

yup, just got it. need one more v.

9:15 am

I have 18 Cs in my list and the stats panel claims I need still one more of the bottom C. Buggy script again, I think.

9:16 am

aha got

9:16 am

a clue for ve 6?

9:16 am

refresh spritey

9:16 am

ROFL

9:16 am

Sprite 1 + 8 = 19

((faeire))

9:16 am

11 +8 = 19

9:17 am

{{{MrP}}}

9:17 am

just got an 8 letter ;-)

9:17 am

Ywis, now I feel stupid! Thanks for helping me count, guys.......

9:18 am

Actually, hurshy doesn't need any clues. She is just keeping me busy so I cannot find any more words ;)

9:18 am

hench

9:19 am

yeah if there are henchmen then hench should count.

9:19 am

Not to mention henches. But alas.

9:19 am

so sprite, tell me the story of your life...

9:19 am

sprite ve 6.. clues plz?

9:20 am

shouldn't have had thewholepotofcoffee!!!!!

9:21 am

Let me think, Preethi. There are 3 of them. Ve5/15 rhyming text + one more letter is Ve6. Anagram of that is another one, switch last two letters. And one rhymes with the N7 for dead tissue.

9:22 am

Hey bonkler, get down from that ceiling and put your feet back on the ground!

9:22 am

(((((Mrp))))))

9:39 am

cr8, fr8, he8, in8, re8, re8, se8, wa8

9:39 am

thanx :)

9:40 am

fireworks has been down for days but the site has not glitched - some of us suspect a correlation

I met a Redneck I couldn't resist! Recently lost him, but this is home now. How do you like Germany?

ho8 - more truthful

9:40 am

That's bad, rumple. Hope he will be well soon. amanda: hasn't been working for 4 days now :(

9:40 am

good grief. and i thought woodener was bad.

9:40 am

I keep think velcro should be in there.

9:41 am

thanks mrp :)

yw hurshy!

9:41 am

And another Re, hurshy.

9:42 am

Boy Cherry, he must have been REALLY irresistable! I like it here alot - feeling a bit homesick lately though, as my Mom was here to visit and she just left today

9:42 am

re8/50, re8/45 and...?

easy one hurshy!!

plural of a 7/32... brings together

At least she got to visit. My parents are still in upstate NY and I hope to see them in July.

9:43 am

that's the 8/45 i have

9:43 am

picked again, attendants accompanying a high-ranking person, together-bringers.

ah, the entourage plural!

9:44 am

aha, i have no entourage

9:44 am

yay, only 2 more R's

9:45 am

My Word List has 215 words total, but my word stats say 0 left. I cannot see the points of the Re other than the 50, they are just not there.

9:45 am

refresh, spritey?

9:45 am

Sorry - was called away - just saw your post, Sprite - I'm sorry to hear that... but glad you are better every day. I haven't been on here for so long... missed alot I see.

9:46 am

Refreshed about 10 times. Does not help. Logged out and in, does not help. I will close ff and restart. Back in a bit... or not ;)

9:46 am

You're right, Cherry, and it was a good visit. I may try to get home in the fall - I DON'T miss MISS in the summer!

9:46 am

ok, one last pesky 7, do we think it starts with c, f, h, n, r, or t?

9:47 am

i keep wanting to get fontina cheese

How about when the snow is hip deep-do you miss MS then?

9:47 am

hip-deep snow! that's the best kind!

9:47 am

Yes, that did it, now all is well. Hurshy, all is possible with the 7s, lol.

9:48 am

i have one c7, is that all?

9:48 am

Must get to work I guess... since they pay me.... have a good day all.... will try to sneak in later!!!

9:48 am

clue for the 1st he 5?

9:48 am

i have no f7, perhaps that's it

9:48 am

We don't actually get that much snow, but when the sun doesn't shine from November to April ... that's not exactly to my taste either

9:48 am

No F7.

9:49 am

he5 - therefore

9:49 am

and i have only 1 c7 and 1 h7, is that right?

bye MAMABEAR!!

Can't have everything!

9:49 am

he--rhymes w/ fence

9:50 am

Hurshy, isnt that an he6? not an he5?

9:50 am

bye mrpresident!

9:50 am

right you are - though that doesn't stop me from wanting it!

9:50 am

Ah ha! Thank you

9:50 am

no, it's a five...

9:50 am

Oh, nevermind hurshy, I was thinking you meant another word.

9:51 am

W7 x 2, U7, T7, R7 x 3, N7 x 3 (bet that is the one)

9:51 am

yes it's N... i have no and ne

9:51 am

i7 x 3, H7, E7, C7

9:51 am

Another No. Same idea.

9:52 am

yup, got it.

9:52 am

hurshy as an infrequesnt player Im never quite sure if you are talking to yourself or asking for clues as you use the 3rd person a lot in yr entries. or is this a babble thing I haven't picked up on?

9:52 am

She's talking to me, lol ;)

9:52 am

ummm.... you may think hurshy is doing whatever you wish to think hurshy is doing :) i'm just weird.

9:54 am

sorry

9:54 am

why does no6/21 make me happy? because no6/21 is goodnuse

9:54 am

just wondered thats all, back to the grid. Takes all sorts I guess.

9:55 am

LOL hurshy :)

9:55 am

what was your last H sprite?

9:56 am

i'm missing one and i would think if you missed it...

9:56 am

back later, must run up and down streets to wear off excess coffee

9:56 am

lol bonkler

9:57 am

wank?

9:58 am

My last one was a 3rd person verb form, as usual. But there are 2 very weird Ho4s. One a babblet we have seen often before, one like that but with the letter I hate.

9:58 am

NO i JUST REMEMBERED IT!

9:58 am

Caps lock :)

9:58 am

yes it was the babblet which we JUST had.

9:58 am

no thanks layne lol ciao

9:58 am

Nope, Layne - we always want that one when the letters are there, but it just won't take!

9:58 am

actually sprite not caps lock, excitement.

9:59 am

Not right now, Layne, sorry ;)

9:59 am

howf, thank you for the ho.. when you said the letter you hate i remember it immediately.

9:59 am

A babblet? An h-babblet? Not the ones I remember... help?

9:59 am

sprite, you are funny!

10:00 am

golly gee, those last 2 bottom c's are bugging me. NOT cruet and cruets, no matter how much i want.

10:00 am

nor velcro...

10:00 am

amanda: see Anniebrook's entry...

10:01 am

oh. That'll teach me to read more carefully. And now I remember it

10:01 am

It is a strange one. Both are, actually, amanda :)

10:01 am

so sorry, i really didnt mean to do that. ( hanging head in shame and desolation)

10:01 am

sprite i have 3 cr's.... how many ought i to have?

10:02 am

hurshy: You are looking for Ce's, not Cr's. Think good, better, ....., change first letter, work from there.

10:02 am

Annie, that happens to all of us, np :)

10:03 am

No, no - don't hang head, Annie! You contributed to saving a bit of my sanity!

10:03 am

can someone tell me how to get a icon instead of the silhouette?

10:03 am

thank you amamda (feel much relieved)

10:04 am

If you go to My Account, you can upload an icon, Annie :)

10:04 am

thank you sprite

10:04 am

sprite...i don't know quite what you mean, it won't take cest or cerest...

10:04 am

Ok, I need a clue for the last k people, Good Afternoon by the way !!

10:05 am

2 ka's, same except 3rd letter

10:05 am

I'm stuck on the se8 - I got the 9 all by myself, but the 8 doesn't want me to find it

10:05 am

Ah, ty hurshy

10:05 am

Aussieme! How are things on your side! Last K, if I had K5/26 you'd be here I'd have decorated the place ;)

10:06 am

10:09 am

Cherry posted a wo-ord, Cherry posted a wo-ord :)

10:09 am

amanda, of course I do

10:09 am

sorry amanda - remove the o from the 9

Um I only have 45 words - too busy on Dooyoo hehe

10:09 am

Take your Se9 and leave out one of the last vowels.

10:10 am

I only have 20 words so far, only been here ten minutes.....x

10:10 am

hurshy: Ce6/24?

10:11 am

aha. you see sprite, i'm very bad at stand-alone 5's and 6's.

10:11 am

thx, got it. Is that an ocean monster or just a hillbilly hiding something away?

10:11 am

but i really should have rememered that one.

10:12 am

The Se8 is a hormone, to be precise a polypeptide hormone produced in the duodenum, especially on contact with acid, to stimulate S9 of pancreatic juice.

10:12 am

11 to go... plodding along...

10:13 am

i really think nutso should count

10:13 am

Me too.

10:13 am

keep going hursh!!! :)

10:13 am

keep going hursh!!! :)

10:13 am

keep going hursh!!! :)

10:13 am

Well! Next time my pancreas acts up, guess I'll understand why!

10:13 am

lol, that'

10:13 am

three cheers from bex :)

10:14 am

's what I call cheering someone on!

10:14 am

ops sorry :( dunno what happened ther

10:14 am

Incredible, right amanda, the things we learn from babble? :)

10:14 am

you are aware when your pancreas acts up?

10:14 am

is there a bit of a delayed reaction on the chat log?

10:14 am

sometimes, yes bexie

10:15 am

I think server is overloaded? ;)

10:15 am

I don't k4 my pancry as good as my stomach, personally.

10:15 am

im done

10:16 am

drat re's, if it won't take resue and rehone and retow, how am i to kn4 what it WILL take?

10:16 am

Yeah oggy! ~~~%%%~~~ FIREWORKS!! ~~~%%%~~~

10:16 am

I only remotely k4 where my pancreas is (somewhere around the rest of the stuff in there), let alone what it does - except, now, what Sprite said

10:16 am

thanks sprite

10:16 am

Maybe it will take renutso!

10:16 am

congrats OGGY!!!!!

10:17 am

lol vi

10:17 am

Owwwww, I LOVE renutso!

10:17 am

Pancreas is on your left middle - slightly up under your ribs (useless tidbits of information - I'm full of them)

10:17 am

Pancreas, meet sprite. Sprite, meet pancreas.

10:17 am

And I res4/8 my baggage quite often on airplanes!

10:17 am

lol CadFan, thanx! Added to all the tidbits I carry around!

10:17 am

yeah that too!

10:18 am

anyone find the missing S?

10:19 am

hurshy: you have the 2 for planting seeds again?

10:19 am

There is a missing S?

10:19 am

yes sprite.

10:19 am

oh sprite, i was just going to say that :)

10:19 am

got the eye one, hursh?

10:20 am

yes have the eye one too

10:20 am

Oh, and the one that rhymes with your good news?

10:20 am

of course it's POSSIBLE i miss ro, but unlikely...

10:20 am

yes sprite

10:20 am

3x Ro

10:21 am

aha - there's another that rhymes with that!

10:21 am

then i have all the ro

10:21 am

There is Re5/12 and Re6/21 that rhymes with it.

10:21 am

right, i just found that re6, thank you sprite! just one more wacko.

10:23 am

Another Re6, for 18 points, crystalline compound, derived from pine tar, fossil resins, and tar oils?

10:23 am

hello again ladies (I think just ladies - don't see any blue handbags)

10:23 am

Hi Leslie! :)

10:23 am

marc freeman was here... and someone else i think...

10:23 am

Oggy too, but he finished.

10:23 am

but maybe the boys ran away

10:24 am

maybe they took boysaway to heart

10:24 am

Oops, that would be bad, Leslie ;)

10:24 am

there are WAY TOO MANY plausible re's

10:24 am

bonkler was here

10:25 am

we're such a scary bunch o' gals!

10:25 am

oh morris the cat! i would vote for him :)

10:25 am

Hurshy...what's your good news?

10:25 am

ty, LeslieAnn ;)

10:26 am

Hurshy, there is a sequence of Re's that do not have Re- as in again. Starts Re4/4 what we should take more often, ends with the Re6 rhyming with your good news, 9 in total.

10:26 am

oh, no benda, it was a joke i made before... i said why do i like no6/21? because no6/21 is goodnuse

10:27 am

ok then i think i'm missing one in there, i have 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 4, 6

10:27 am

If there's no such thing as a hench, how can there be a henchman?

10:27 am

welcome to the club of wonderers amanda

10:27 am

I know amandacath, I tried that too !!

10:28 am

Oh, you did that one while I was away, I guess

10:28 am

You are missing the one I gave a clue for already, hurshy, crystalline compound, derived from pine tar, fossil resins, and tar oils.

10:28 am

Comes right after the 2nd Re4.

10:28 am

must've been before i was looking at chat.

10:28 am

hurshy's good news is that she is done with her charmed addiction

10:28 am

hench again-- what do henchmen do?

10:28 am

ahh...a joke waaay over my head

10:28 am

whooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooo got the He8! and with that comes the TH9! Thank heckiness for that - Im glad I went off and came back again - annoying moi it was

10:28 am

not QUITE leslie, i have to watch it yet - i had to tape it cause i had to go pick up pizza for the lads

10:28 am

they hench stuff

10:29 am

10.23 am, hurshy. No excuses, you did not pay attention!

10:29 am

yup, he***, hench

10:29 am

ah, well, soon enough :)

10:29 am

CJ: well done!

10:29 am

any clue for the tw 6?

10:29 am

true dat, sprite, dunno how i missed it! someday i will remember that re6!

10:30 am

sprite - I was getting soooooo frustrated

10:30 am

ylleria: first 3 letters = number, last 3 letters is last part of match (the one you make fire with).

10:31 am

I know, CJ, been there, done that! So irritating, when you just cannot find a word. But you have it now, you did not give up :)

10:31 am

Always take a break I think will be my motto

10:31 am

bringing up baby katharine hepburn cigarette quote! "ah, a tw6!" "what?" "tw6 a nickel"

10:32 am

That really helps, CJ. Though I can't get myself to take a break before I found such a bugger :) LOL hurshy, true!

10:32 am

hurshy, that was a great clue

10:33 am

8 to go...sigh... spritey how DO you still go fast at the end???

10:33 am

and I have an icon. going to do chores (alas). will be back later.

10:33 am

I need to do some cooking. Hurshy, any last minute calls? Nice one, Annie!

10:33 am

are you newly pro, annie?

10:33 am

AND without a lot of clues.

10:34 am

yes, hurshy, great clue & great movie :)

10:34 am

yes. my daughter's doing. she turned me on to babble and now i even babble in my sleep.

10:34 am

Hurshy, I always check my list for forgotten plurals, singulars and such at the end. Usually pays of hugely.

10:34 am

well sprite, since i don't have the list... i miss 1 t, 3, f, 4 n, so you might as well go cook unless there's anything you can obviously think of.

10:34 am

lol well congrats annie :)

10:35 am

thank you. bbl

10:35 am

I took a break and I still don't see it (the he8) - does it start with the common adverb or the less common one?

10:35 am

My own list, hurshy, with the words I entered, lol. I do not use other lists, usually.

10:35 am

I got one of these clues right away

10:35 am

Annie, I hate to break it to you, but that's FMitch's icon...

10:35 am

Annie we share the same icon!!!

10:35 am

The common one, amanda.

10:35 am

common, ac - he 4/5 + un 4/5

10:35 am

right, me either sprite, ever since i found out you and atalante didn't.

10:36 am

but i usually don't miss many plurals.

10:36 am

LOL amanda

10:36 am

For the Fs you have both spellings of the warm wind?

10:36 am

Yay, Leslie! Thanks a bundle!

10:36 am

i haven't got any warm wind at all

10:36 am

you see that is my problem i don't know as many words as you and ata do

10:36 am

is it okay to have the same icon as someone else?

10:37 am

DONE...anyone need a clue??

10:37 am

anyone have this pesky er 6?

10:37 am

it's fine, annie. hurshy and i do it all the time :)

10:37 am

o'chita :) :) :)

10:37 am

There is notihng that say you cant - it can just get a bit confusing thats all.

10:37 am

hehe leslie

10:37 am

congrats ouwa!

10:37 am

er6...means before the present time

10:38 am

All of us non-pros have the same icon - but ditto FMitch (we sometimes get lost in the crowd)

10:38 am

Hurshy: sounds like the apparatus you use at home to call other people. There are 2 spellings.

10:38 am

try that tw6 clue again please?

10:38 am

it's kind of like the title of oasis' second album

10:38 am

(((Hugs for amanda))) as your mum has gone home, saw your earlier postings

10:39 am

thank you sprite!!!!!! never heard those words before.

10:39 am

oh thanks ouwa. when i saw the now i kept thinking of the "serenity now!" from seinfeld, i guess i was kinda moving toward a clue :)

10:39 am

Hi FMitch :) *hug*

10:39 am

i dont know how was able to get this icon even. i am not compute savvy so if i can share this icon i would be very happy.

10:39 am

how many shell

10:40 am

Hey sprite (((hugs to you))) I must drop you an email this evening as I have had such an entertaining day

10:40 am

is it tw6/18?

10:40 am

Oh good, a largish puzzle for my first day off in MONTHS!

10:40 am

hurshy: No4/8 - 5/18 combo Neat cattle?

10:40 am

Tw6/39 even, CJ.

10:40 am

dang, we have had something to do with neat cattle before haven't we... now what was it....

10:41 am

10:47 am

10:47 am

Hi TO! It's another bugger of a puzzle...bleh!

10:47 am

helpul hint - look for the language. it's a tough one

10:47 am

i find words by typo very satisfying :)

10:47 am

monkeys are always needed.

10:47 am

stupid N's.

10:47 am

I like monkeys

10:47 am

Temple, hi :) *hug* I think monkeytyping and mistyping are very good ways to find words.

10:48 am

How many more Ns, hurs?

10:48 am

ok, one more word and hten i must get ready for work =)

10:48 am

3

10:48 am

10:48 am

any coordinated monkey could type better than I...

10:49 am

You did not miss the babblet Na, of course... nor the light... nor the radon... nor the crazy one?

10:49 am

hurshy do you have no 6 - something might break down because of no 6?

10:49 am

I sometimes get the words from having dyslexic fingers too, thats always a fun surprise

10:50 am

babblet got, light...missed, 1 fish today!...radon?...crazy i have...yes leslie have that

10:50 am

It was such a simple word though - simple like me :-)

10:50 am

10:51 am

Good morning Babblers:)

10:51 am

Hey daisy

10:51 am

10:51 am

Yeah, sorry kierlex, my clues are handmade to fit hurshy atm ;)

10:51 am

tu 6?

10:51 am

Hurshy's mind and mine seem to work along comparable lines sometimes, lol.

10:52 am

that's ok... i figured you had your own private language together =)

10:52 am

starting to think the other 2 must be fish too

10:52 am

sprite email on it's way to the addy in yr profile. :)

10:52 am

I'm a moron. spent the last 5 minutes looking for the last wo 5 when it was actually a wo 4 the entire time.

10:52 am

Great FMitch :)

10:52 am

thanks leslieann... i finally got it =)

10:59 am

There's an edible Eurasian fish with small scales and two barbels by the mouth.

10:59 am

oh, forgot the sandwich one, had that. The null fish is a word that is an alternate spelling for another word for null, not sure if I've got the whale one...

harp: that fish wwas tied with the eggs for hated foods....Jacs! {{{jacs}}}

10:59 am

Salad with jelly beans... it's an idea, Jac!

1:19 pm

on the tip of my tongue.....

1:21 pm

Hi amadacath!

1:22 pm

Jaime, i think she went to class. re7 starts like the re6 in your eye, but replace final letter with two vowels

1:22 pm

right, gramma. it's not "on", but another preposition that you stick on the end (towards)

1:23 pm

thanks so much vicuna!!!

1:23 pm

Gramma, add "--- us a child is born"

1:23 pm

all right - list, here i come!

1:23 pm

DOH! Stupid old woman

1:24 pm

You're welcome, Jaime!

1:24 pm

I don't see any stupid old women around here!

1:24 pm

there are no stupid babblers!

1:24 pm

gramma, you're not stupid! because if you are, I are!

1:24 pm

No way, gramma - took me forever to find it as well

1:29 pm

movieman h4/5 + u4/5

1:30 pm

Got it!!!!! ty all..........

1:30 pm

really old expression that Nancy Drew might have used -- meaning what are you up to?

1:30 pm

Movieman, do you have enough clues?

1:30 pm

All those biggies have left me with 64 more words to find....

1:31 pm

stid...figured as much, wasn't postive. things are good...glad I won't have to worry about watering this week :)

1:31 pm

me too, though the rain woke me a couple times during the night -- and one dog came in from outside and straight to the middle of the living room and... "water everywhere" LOL

1:32 pm

yeah...it's going crazy up here. Good thing we installed that sprinkler timer this weekend huh?

1:32 pm

I could use the first two ce: ce 6/21 and 7/32...

1:33 pm

nancy drew expression is no tormenting me-- on tip of brain!

1:33 pm

I know its not que passo...

1:33 pm

ce+no 4/4 (music word) and plural

1:34 pm

*giggle* it figures, all right! Tom mowed the lawn yesterday before Matthew's concert, so at least that looks better

1:34 pm

and thanks for the ce 6 and 7...

1:34 pm

no problem

1:35 pm

me too, libarebel - what's the clue for?

1:35 pm

1:35 pm

amanda and lib...stid asked me how's tricks? Is that what you're referring to?

1:36 pm

oh yes

1:36 pm

Jaime - cr8=what you use to keep wood waterproof.....

1:36 pm

cr8 - like tar, putting on wood like railroad ties to keep them from rotting

1:36 pm

(and I was showing my age by not being entirely sure what she was referring to)

1:37 pm

oh, guess that was it - makes sense, anyway

1:37 pm

so, ???

1:38 pm

may i have a clue for the top h? i have a 4/5

1:39 pm

okay guys, gotta run for while and actually do things like work. I'll be back later for my last 50. Enjoy!

1:39 pm

abe - the other is an hw4/9......

1:39 pm

later kristin!

1:40 pm

thanks movieman

1:40 pm

yw, abe.....

1:40 pm

hmm, I don't understand the tar hint.

1:40 pm

i'm not familiar with that word

hi stid...

1:41 pm

Jaime - it's what people put on fenceposts etc. to waterproof them......

1:41 pm

Hi daisy!

1:42 pm

is today's icon comfort food?

1:42 pm

right, but i can't find the word online. I just call it wood stain.

1:43 pm

i thought it was dairy, stidmama (my tofutti was to represent the lactose intolerant population :)

1:43 pm

Jaime, it's no longer used because so toxic. a petroleum product, I think! cr + greek for "dawn" + pluralising letter + three letters sound like a breakfast foor o**meal

1:43 pm

the missing S was found?

1:43 pm

jaime - have you tried clicking on the question mark icon next to the word? It usually gives the definition.....

1:44 pm

i don't ahve the word yet :)

1:44 pm

cr8 - starts with Spanish for "I believe", ends with flat fish like flounder but replace l with t

1:44 pm

(convoluted, but the best I can think of)

1:45 pm

vicuna, that was way better than my clue!

1:45 pm

wanna help me with the first er ? the er 6/30...

1:45 pm

similar to oasis' second album

1:45 pm

Or, for the second half of the word, try one instrumentalist playing alone, replace last letter with e...

stid, are you available for a phone call? dont have much time b4 he gets back I don'tthink....what a day

1:46 pm

yes daisy, phone and tea at the ready... :-)

1:46 pm

stidmama, sounds like a luther vandross hit. refers to 'time'

1:46 pm

er6/30 - compound of two 3-letter words, first meaning before, second meaning this moment

1:46 pm

abe! that made sense! ty

1:46 pm

down to an even 80...

1:47 pm

1:55 pm

tu6/27 - oil crayon for lithography, sounds like yiddish for bum

1:58 pm

1:59 pm

2:00 pm

*pokes head into chat log* there's a te fish?

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

Oh, Minski, I live 15 minutes W of Boston. :)

2:16 pm

thanks!

2:16 pm

How do poison dart frogs make their poison? se9, that's how.

2:16 pm

(Oops, a bit late.)

2:17 pm

and how do you take your poison? shaken or stirred?

2:17 pm

stirred

2:17 pm

With chocolate

2:17 pm

I prefer no poison at all!

2:18 pm

stirred with chocolate and a shot of espresso with whipped cream on top

2:18 pm

yes, i'd prefer poisson myself

2:18 pm

And would you prefer the tu4 or the te5 as your poisson! (And so we come full circle...)

2:19 pm

whats the TE 5?

2:19 pm

lol - actually like shell-poisson best - had some lovely crabcakes the other night, but scallops are my absolute fave

2:20 pm

scribble - there are 2 te 5's that sound the same, one describes when you say something briefly or curtly, the other is a fish.

2:20 pm

Mmmm... shell-poisson (i don't know enough French to know whether that even translates)

2:20 pm

they rhyme with "for better or..."

2:20 pm

There's another fish too, ce 4/5

2:21 pm

heck, you knew what i meant. :)

2:21 pm

aww...my dog caught a rabbit in the yard and was slinging it around like a chew toy.... :'(

2:21 pm

oh dear!

2:21 pm

thanks hursh... got the TE fish

2:22 pm

i feel really bad....poor little bunny.... :'''(

2:22 pm

don't forget to plural it scribble

2:22 pm

No, the te fish sound like the word for sidekicks that isn't allowed (he--- men). The te that rhymes with worse is the third canonical hour.

2:22 pm

not the bunny. the fish.

2:23 pm

duh hurshy. :P

2:23 pm

thx vicuna...got both of them now

2:24 pm

any hints on the th9 and similar he8??? please!!

2:24 pm

well if things are going to be pronounced funny i can't be held responsible

2:24 pm

th9 is th5 + un4

2:24 pm

Fair enough, hurshy!

2:24 pm

mermaid, if you have th7 and similar he6, they are like that but with a longer preposition at the end

2:24 pm

he 8 is made up of he 4 + un 4

2:25 pm

for the he take off the first letter

2:25 pm

unless i know them myself, of course, vi :)

2:25 pm

Mermaid, the preposition in question being "---- us a child is born"

2:26 pm

and the government shall be upon his shoooooooulders

2:26 pm

bye

2:26 pm

shoooooooulders??

2:26 pm

I har you singing, hurshy!!!

2:27 pm

Must be broad shoulders

2:27 pm

(Only works if you celebrate Christmas or are a classical music fan, I suppose)

2:27 pm

singing, scribbledy - haven't you ever heard handel's messiah

2:27 pm

ah ha

2:27 pm

i guess not...

2:27 pm

but i do celebrate Christmas...

2:27 pm

give it a listen sometime - especially that section and the hallelujah chorus

2:28 pm

the "all we like sheep" part is fun too

2:28 pm

*taking more notes*

2:28 pm

Cause it's so hard to dislike sheep. Ha ha ha!

2:28 pm

I personally like the Amen

2:28 pm

hehe

2:28 pm

hurshy i bet i have 453256 pages of notes and suggestions from you! :)

2:29 pm

lol, do you really scribble? :)

2:29 pm

2:29 pm

well then you are a very conscientious no4-taker

2:30 pm

2:30 pm

2:31 pm

Violins are better than the voices... aren't they?

2:31 pm

i come from a long line of no6

2:31 pm

2:31 pm

2:32 pm

2:32 pm

st 5/18 doesn't smell so good

2:32 pm

ugh, thanks :)

2:32 pm

ce add the beginning of the one i just gave you

2:33 pm

As Dr Watson says, "A well-play violin is a treat for the gods, but a poorly played one..."

2:33 pm

th grinch st5, stank, st5

2:33 pm

is like a cat in heat?

2:33 pm

Great clue, Scribble! ;)

2:33 pm

you nauseate me, mr. grinch, with a nauseous super NAUS

2:33 pm

LOL hurshy!!!

2:33 pm

Possibly. He declined to spell it out.

2:34 pm

then again, the gods may like cats in heat, for they can bring forth KITTENS!!!!!

2:35 pm

Behold, the kittens of Elysium!

2:35 pm

et 4/4 please?

2:35 pm

I took a break and now I can't seem to ge tback into the flow of this grid

2:35 pm

why is it that the greek gods never did have pets? or at least not normal ones, maybe there was pegasus or whatever...

2:35 pm

Sicilian volcano

2:35 pm

*bows before the all powerful kittens*

2:36 pm

FISH please! (hides face in shame...)

2:36 pm

They didn't want to feed them, walk them, clean up after them... That's why they had to hire Hercules to clean up the stables and stuff.

2:37 pm

they could always kidnap mortals to care for the pets.

2:37 pm

i mean you'd think after a long day of thunderbolt throwing or whatever you'd want to come home and relax with something soft and furry

2:37 pm

Some of Hercules's lesser-known labors included walking Cerberus and litter-training the kittens of Elysium

2:38 pm

lol

2:38 pm

lol

2:45 pm

Athena had owls, and Hera had peacocks.

2:45 pm

eh - those are for the birds

2:46 pm

Must have been noisy up on Olympus.

2:46 pm

well naturally, with all their squabbling, they didn't need pets to make it noisy.

2:47 pm

True enough. Catfights even without cats.

2:48 pm

and can you imagine the labor and delivery room at the hospital? people coming out of their dad's skull... how do you train for that?

2:49 pm

ob/gynosteo

2:53 pm

ooo, nice, Annie!

2:53 pm

help with fo 4/8 pls?

2:54 pm

full of wisdom

2:54 pm

does anyone have the CR8?

2:55 pm

fo4/8 - sounds like Bell's invention for speaking long distance, spelled like German for male child, with f instead of s

2:55 pm

cr8 A colorless to yellowish oily liquid obtained by the destructive distillation of wood tar, especially from the wood of a beech

2:55 pm

2:59 pm

scribblelista

3:00 pm

hello?

3:00 pm

they don't call me faster-than-a-speeding-bullet-hurshy for nothing

3:01 pm

we call you that hush?

3:01 pm

ok, so no one calls me that.

3:01 pm

whoops *hursh

3:01 pm

but its still true. :)

3:02 pm

ok, so purely abstract linguistic question here...if something has ferocity, it's ferocious. so if something has velocity, couldn't we say it's velocious?

3:02 pm

scribble

3:02 pm

hi

3:02 pm

he 5/14 please?

3:02 pm

hmm....what is velocity exactly?

3:03 pm

hello scribner :)

3:03 pm

makes linguistic sense to me, hurshy, but that's not necessarily a recommendation... ;-)

3:03 pm

speeeeeeeeeeeeed

3:03 pm

he 5/14, thus, therefore.

3:03 pm

well in that case hursh, you are velocious

3:03 pm

i'm velocious!

3:03 pm

snap, scribbledy :)

3:03 pm

snap :)

3:03 pm

ty hurshy

3:04 pm

so how is scribner today?

3:04 pm

technically scribble, as you will learn in physics, velocity is speed in a direction, not just speed.

3:04 pm

is scott scribblelista

3:04 pm

oooh more no5! :)

3:04 pm

ce 6/24 please?

3:04 pm

3:17 pm

she's filing her nals and chewing gum

3:17 pm

anyone care to define no6/21 for me? i have a hard time believing it is actually in the dictionary, even the disable dictionary.

3:17 pm

st + vowel + opposite of yes, s + what you camp in, homonym of cow

3:17 pm

i mean nails

3:17 pm

yes mab, i defined it earlier: no6/21 is goodnuse

3:17 pm

3:18 pm

jeffer i just gave three clues for them

3:19 pm

oops no sorry i was thinking of the excellent typist one. meant re 5/10, please

3:19 pm

I already have that one. I am looking for a different st5/10 I guess.

3:19 pm

well at least you could have taken time to wash and clean your clothes up, after spending all that dough to have the doctor fix your no4 up!

3:19 pm

alien - that was 3 clues all in one post for 3 different words.

3:20 pm

ooooohhhhhh...ok, thank you. i get it now.

3:20 pm

jeffer - reverse the w guy who brings your food but drop the w

3:20 pm

a collector might have Barbie in her original box. she's never been played with. she is a no6 item.

3:20 pm

st/5 helps with clots in blood

3:21 pm

well sure mab, if you want to be all...real...and stuff

3:21 pm

personally i thought my no6 is goodnuse was hilariouser

3:22 pm

3:22 pm

3:23 pm

3:23 pm

yeah, yeah, like the gospel.

3:23 pm

3:24 pm

3:25 pm

3:25 pm

"a joke, a witticism, a bon mot..."

3:26 pm

3:26 pm

3:26 pm

3:27 pm

oh dear, lost again. data is a character on sesame st?

3:27 pm

hehe, that would be pretty hilarious too!

3:27 pm

no, star trek, next generation

3:28 pm

well I suppose it had to be one or the other.

3:28 pm

can you imagine data and oscar squabbling? or "elmo doesn't like androids... they scaaaaaaaare him"

3:28 pm

lol

3:28 pm

I must rent the one you like, hurshy.

3:29 pm

which one i like, mab? what do you mean? the trek episode?

3:30 pm

the one in your profile.

3:30 pm

noser is a word. my cat is a noser.

3:30 pm

OHHHHHHHHHH

3:30 pm

ok but data's not in that, it's classic trek.

3:30 pm

bloodhounds are nosers.

3:32 pm

but darn it, i have to change it to my six favorite, i just realized. maybe i should just think of four more so it's round again. alTHOUGH six IS a perfect number in the mathematical sense.

3:32 pm

really? interesting. my favorite number is five.

3:33 pm

searching for the no 5/10 and 6/18 before the opposite of wonderwoman...

3:34 pm

all the longer WA words start with the same 4 letter words, one is wa4/8, wa** patiently and wa4/8, I wa** you to wa** me

3:45 pm

mab - just so you know, what makes star trek VI so great is how wonderful a capper it is to all of classic trek. non-fans generally like star trek IV best, and i find it very enjoyable as well.

oh dear...it is the no 9 i need...

3:46 pm

there's a lot of good shakespeare quoting in VI though...

3:46 pm

Thanks Fran... I have wa as in hang about forsomeone and it's connected word and also the other you mention but I am still missing a 9

3:46 pm

the one you're missing is the plural of the 8/60

ah - idon't have the villain...

3:47 pm

wa6 reckless, wa8 more reckless or apparently someone who is reckless because wa9 is pl of 8

3:47 pm

hello again

3:47 pm

what does 8/60 mean?

3:48 pm

SMELTZIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey, smeltz!!!

3:48 pm

3:48 pm

3:48 pm

:)

3:49 pm

3:50 pm

no7 villain is a person who isn't a good guy. *** he4

3:50 pm

3:51 pm

sorry...didn't mean to pry into your medical history. It seems like you are doing much better. and you Temple?

3:58 pm

Hey there, Helen!

3:58 pm

3:59 pm

i hope noble remembers that today is dairy day

3:59 pm

Temple, I had to refresh on the log for the ice cream sundae to come up....

4:00 pm

yes i think more refreshing is needed in this new version than in the old one in order for the icons to be fully present

i am totally loving this icon thing - sometimes i spend way too much time just lost in the google images - it's so much fun!

4:01 pm

does any one know if Lickety found his missing words?

4:01 pm

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

sheryl it's plural of a person who is not a he4/5

4:03 pm

Hi all -

4:03 pm

lara - some people print the list, some people leave it open in another window

4:03 pm

Howdy all!

4:03 pm

4:04 pm

hi snowyowl and jen

4:04 pm

OH. i see.

4:04 pm

oh, temple - it got switched to DAIRY PRODUCT DAY

lol

what a stupid word,

4:04 pm

foods you hate will be in august now

4:04 pm

Temple, if you don't see my ice cream sundae, then you need to refresh! anyone else not see the sundae?

Stid! I can't stay, but ....I got my canisters! All in good shape! I'll be busy in the kitchen for awhile.

i see sundae chic

4:04 pm

i don't, but my issue is with caching on my ISPs servers

4:05 pm

hi daisy!

4:05 pm

no chic temple sees it but couldn't understand why you would hate sundaes cause the theme got switched

4:05 pm

Yippee Daisy! woo-hoo1

ok. you hate ice cream - faeriekae had ice cream too

4:05 pm

helen, yes, we both went with cheeseheads, too funny

hi Fran:)

4:05 pm

tu, helen

4:05 pm

chic - hope the cuzzi has been fun

4:05 pm

Chic I don't but as it takes an age to refresh I will look again later

Fran, will you pls make sure Stid sees my msj? I really have to get up and get busy. ty

4:05 pm

no no chic doesn't hate ice cream - theme was switched to dairy products. see babbler's updated profile.

4:05 pm

I've kept chat off all day, and now am giving in and shamelessly going to search for clues -- 76 to go!

4:05 pm

ok so now i see i need a 6 letter word with Ve so do i say... ve6? and ppl will know what im talking about

4:06 pm

is it common to have a legit word, but it doesn't take it. i.e. kawn, an eastern inn.

4:06 pm

she's popping in and out, but i'll try to catch her

4:06 pm

you would say ve 6/ pt. value

4:06 pm

I haven't switched icons in forever, today is dairy day? Just imagine my Seminole head at a football game eating nachos! LOL

4:06 pm

this is true lara.

4:06 pm

yes Lara, you've got it!

4:06 pm

every time I look at the puzzle, I see the word "cheese." It is not there!

Stid!

4:06 pm

stid, daisy has a message for you below

4:06 pm

whoa, stid, you're still here?

4:06 pm

oooooh.... and i get my point value im missing from the list of clues. ok thanks patient ppl

4:07 pm

if i type it enough it will take it, take it. take the ##$ word.

4:07 pm

Smeltz, Mamabear has been trying to carch up with you. Alas, we haven't done 'cuzzis since you were gone....:-(

4:07 pm

haha exactly

4:07 pm

smazing -the word needs to be in the Enable dictionary -if it isn't in there perfectly normal words don't exist in babble!

4:07 pm

what the heck is the to 5,12?

4:07 pm

i'm back -- got my warm tummy pillow and my tea and my chocolate covered espresso beans and going to try for my last 38 before the kids get home... :-)

4:07 pm

urg!

good. you see my msj?

4:08 pm

and the er 6,30?

4:08 pm

ve6/27 X2?

4:08 pm

I don't think I have said it in about 36 hours, but just to remind you all, I HATE RE WORDS!!!! :)

4:08 pm

need that one too jaime

4:08 pm

I have two nine words so far, SE and NO. What do the other two start with please?

4:08 pm

4:08 pm

yes!

4:08 pm

hi Jen! still excited about the job?

I have to go...have houseowrk out the ar 4/4 here....bbl if possible

4:09 pm

so glad daisy, sorry my IM isn't working... :-(

4:09 pm

nrkii.... a cross letter would mean?

4:09 pm

wa9 and th9

4:10 pm

lara, the one shaped like a cross

4:10 pm

on the subject of frappr though did you-all see that Anj put up a marker today?

4:10 pm

any help with the cr 8/45?

4:10 pm

Hey there stid! Getting more and more nervous! But too much to do between now and then to think about it much. :)

4:10 pm

later daisy!

4:10 pm

cr8 A colorless to yellowish oily liquid obtained by the destructive distillation of wood tar, especially from the wood of a beech

4:10 pm

jaime, er6/30 is a compound word, first part sounds like the thing you hear with spelled differently + time word, right here, right ***

hiya stidmama 1 :)

4:10 pm

that's it -- keep busy, and enjoy as much time as you can with your kiddo...

4:10 pm

what's the new job, jen?

4:10 pm

a cross would be an X... i dont think i get this

4:10 pm

hi helen!

4:10 pm

Jaime, to 5/12 is t + o 4/5 meaning responsibility

4:11 pm

thanks hurshy!

4:11 pm

that doesn't terribly help, hursh, as my experience with distilling wood tar is lacking. ;)

4:11 pm

I am I am! Trying to get him into swim lessons before we go on our cruise! :/

4:11 pm

lara - you probably have a ve5 that's poetry, there are two others that are the same except last letter. then there is a 6 that sounds like a medicine they mention a lot on ER, another where the last 2 letters are reverse, and a 6 that is ve + proboscis

4:11 pm

i'm hunting for a GIS specialist position. Any one need a mapper?

4:11 pm

thanks nrkii! needed that one too

4:11 pm

i know eagle, i hate that sort of clue myself, you have to just google it, i'll give you another one if you like

4:11 pm

smazing, going to work for the State Department...

4:12 pm

:-) he'll take to it like a fish to water, I bet!

4:12 pm

that will be very interesting. good luck!

4:12 pm

Lara turn the X on point and you have another letter...

4:12 pm

apparently cr8/45 was the name of a fat man in one of the monty python movies

4:12 pm

cr + michael jackson as captain ** + anagram of the digits on your feet

4:13 pm

I am trying to monkeytype an on 4/4 that is not the opposite of "off-from"

4:13 pm

aaaaahhhhhhhh hurshy thanks... but stidmama thanks

4:13 pm

smazing, go to usajobs.com (I think, it might be org though) and they have all the government jobs you could ever think of... and you can get e-mails job updates as well

4:13 pm

tu 6?

4:13 pm

stid, singles?

4:13 pm

stid, not twos or threes?

4:14 pm

awesome, got it, thanks hurshy

4:14 pm

nrkii said a woooord, nrkii said a woooooord

4:14 pm

nrkii, pass the tu 4!

4:14 pm

oh, i do. there tough ones to get. especially when you are trying from another state. There's one in sacramento that i am filling out this week.

4:14 pm

i was just going to toss it stid!

4:14 pm

tu6, like a cutesy name for butt with extra letters thrown in

4:14 pm

oh darnit

4:15 pm

okay, what about another supposedly too easy for me word... the or 4/5?

4:15 pm

*smacks self in head* I already have that

4:15 pm

rocks, minerals that you mine, stid

4:15 pm

the characters from Dungeons and Dragons?

4:15 pm

Also try applying directly with the department you would want to work with... that's what I did, not through usajobs... and the longest part in the process was honestly my security clearance! :)

4:15 pm

oh, 4/FIVE, silly me

4:15 pm

that's 4/4 hursh

4:16 pm

sweet fran, thanks.

4:16 pm

D&D characters? *puzzlement*

the website is usajobs.gov

4:16 pm

stid, seen LOTR?

4:16 pm

from Lord of the Rings, scary hybrid creatures

4:17 pm

Help w/the last FO please.

4:17 pm

oh! LOTR! got em! yay!

4:17 pm

stid, take a stone minus the K and turn the letters around

4:17 pm

nrkii, have you got the first three st5's, i have two, the one that means narrow and looking

4:17 pm

hhi stid

4:17 pm

Thanks TO, and howdy! :)

4:18 pm

hi scatty! how's the garden and the kid? it finally rained here, so am sitting inside enjoying how green everything feels.

4:18 pm

the other ST5 is short for the person who records court proceedings

4:18 pm

ok, not to stir up anything OR to try and lay down any rules but JUST to say my own personal opinion, like that of some others, is that the whole cross-letter, snake-letter, etc method of cluing is not very... cluish. i'm not saying people can't do them, but i think if you can't think of another way to clue it's really fine to just say ve5 + t as opposed to mucking around with cross-letters. it is ONLY my two cents and PLEASE do not feel that i am telling anyone what to do.

4:19 pm

today's grid is wonderful fun! I finished several hours ago.

4:19 pm

good job angelsong!

4:19 pm

how many words are there today?

4:19 pm

hi Angelsong! excellent icon!

4:19 pm

266 wurdy

4:19 pm

hurshy, usually I don't do that

4:20 pm

thanks

4:20 pm

the plants need to be planted out but the weather isn't giving in at the moment, my petunias have started to flower in their pots, i need to get them out

4:20 pm

hurshy, I agree. I just roll my eyes and move on. I don't feel it's a very good way to clue. Also, just my opinion

4:20 pm

i know nrkii :) i just wanted to mention it...

4:20 pm

nlkii, did you look to see if you had those st5's

4:21 pm

anyone can give me the clue as long as its really easy

4:21 pm

it's just that it's become kind of a cluing trend, it wasn't targeted at anyone in particular

4:21 pm

but then again, everyone thinks differently, and all just want to give clues that will be helpful

4:21 pm

oh, that's not good, is it. Don't suppose you can cover the bed you want them in for a day to help the soil dry out so you can plant? I've done that once or twice here and it worked pretty well.

4:21 pm

sorry scatty

4:21 pm

I'm having trouble keeping up

lol - i agree with scatty !!!!

4:21 pm

I have 6 total st 5 words

4:21 pm

i prefer to get the more cryptic clues, like definitions and 'sounds like', but others may not get them

4:22 pm

i agree with you though hursh

4:22 pm

well you see, i did suggest cluing ve5 + t, as opposed to ve + cross letter - which is just as easy if not more so.

4:22 pm

hurshy, I need a clue for the last -sheep herders crook and a round vowel.....Just kidding...FO, please.

4:22 pm

chiming in, I like definitions, especially if I can copy them into google, but sometimes a "sounds like" clue is better

4:22 pm

the first three st5's nrkii

franmag: when s omeone gives a definiton, all the recipient has to do is google it. if you can't even do that...*bites tongue*

4:22 pm

Fran, yes I agree, it is better to be pushed to think more. Therefore, I'm sorry for resorting to the "cross letter" clue earlier, but I don't promise not to do so again when I'm at a loss for better ideas!!!

4:22 pm

:)

4:22 pm

scatty - I know what you mean about the weather, I can't plant mine until I have dug another flowerbed and it hasn't stopped raining since I bought them

4:23 pm

stid, they are going into hanging baskets and the rain always seems alot heavier towards the back of the house where tha baskets hang

4:23 pm

scatty, I have st = shorthand, st = medical device, and st = sounds like another word for cattle

4:23 pm

not sure if those are the first 3 though

4:23 pm

I want to see a fight!

4:24 pm

un7 or the 6 it derives from? please?

you sly dog you, smeltz!

4:24 pm

again - it's fine to give easy clues. the only thing i am talking about, really, is giving the letters in a way that pretends to be a clue and really is just giving the letters. i say go ahead and say the letter! i only object to the charade.

4:24 pm

I'll take ya on, smeltz!

4:24 pm

hurshy you troublemaker, stop giving me a hard time, I just started chatting for the day!!! :)

4:24 pm

your clues are great nrkii! you've helped me a lot

4:24 pm

and really nrkii, it was NOT about you.

4:24 pm

charm - to bring together is the word it derives from

4:24 pm

all the third letters are the same aren't they, still cant find it, having a thick moment

4:25 pm

people who bring people together are un7

4:25 pm

I'll help you on your soapbox hursh! Then I'll hand you the rocks!

4:25 pm

hurshy, LOL

4:25 pm

i have the cattle spetl differently

4:25 pm

hurshy has scared me! Now I'm afraid to give a clue ;-}

4:25 pm

Hurshy, give it up...you made your point. Some of us agree and some disagree. :)

4:25 pm

scatty, which one are you stuck with?

4:25 pm

keep going hursh!

4:26 pm

i just wanted to make sure what i was saying was clear.

4:26 pm

ah, lovely, nrkii - thanks! Keep the clues coming - I like the obscure ones, but some days I'm dense and need to be s-p-o-k-e-n t-o s--l--o--w--l--y.

4:26 pm

Like sands through the hourglass...

4:26 pm

step down gramma...hursh is coming through!

4:26 pm

and the writing one but cant find the medical

4:26 pm

Please can we change the topic, point was made and wasn't personal, I'm sure everyone is friends :)

4:26 pm

scatty, rhymes with ***** of a Woman

4:27 pm

*mamabear peeks in chat log...... Smeltzie.... is that YOU?????*

4:27 pm

same as me charm, my brain can't cope with heavy clues

4:27 pm

katie, no worries, we're all good

4:27 pm

or s + camping shelter...

4:27 pm

well, I have to go for now, if you see mamabear, gw or if minski talks tell them I said hi!

4:27 pm

hi Mamabear!

mamabear!

4:27 pm

And another hint on clues before people keep asking the same ol' same ol' is to actually utilize the chat log... it's a wonderfull thing, especially from the early birds at like 2 in the morning! :)

4:27 pm

brb folks, baby is ready for her nap

4:27 pm

SMELTZIE!!!!!!

4:27 pm

And HI mamabear! :)

4:27 pm

( rolling up my sleeves, clenching my old arthritic fists ) smeltz, you"re a trouble maker! I'm gonna clean your clock!

4:28 pm

except that for some of us the chat log hasn't been working really well...

hiya mama :)

4:28 pm

mamabear!

4:28 pm

i still fear that people think i am objecting to easy clues, which i am not...but whatever...

4:28 pm

Jen, yes, but it's less interactive, and the interaction is the most fun part of babble.

4:28 pm

Go Gramma Go!

get 'em, gramma! oh poo - i have to go! BBL to finish!

4:28 pm

god, i was writing thanks in the answer box then, thank you, stid you are on my brain wave

4:28 pm

You guys are funny! Definitely keeping me entertained at my temp job.

4:28 pm

hurshy, your fine

4:28 pm

hurshy -- when simpletons like me need the easy clues for the easy words we just ask! it all works!

4:28 pm

nrkii, I know what you mean I like asking for clues at the time :)

4:29 pm

thanks nrkii i had missed the writing one as well

4:29 pm

Hi Temple, Jen, Charm, Helen, stid, gramma, fran, hurshy, et al.

4:29 pm

hurshy, your clues have saved my tu6/27 today, so keep 'em coming....

4:29 pm

4:29 pm

Hi mamabear, have not seen you for a ling time

4:29 pm

Sarah and Sue!!!

4:29 pm

Speaking of asking for clues....Hello....again Help, please..FO . the last one

4:30 pm

hi scatty!!!!! how

4:30 pm

speaking of which... could you reclue the first fo 5? I just didn't understand the last one you gave...

4:30 pm

but hurshy, I missed the tu 6 clue -- I saw what you said about rear ends and such, but I cant see how the letters go -- might I ask you to try again?

4:30 pm

stid beat me to it!

4:30 pm

well nrkii, when scribble found it she thought it was what you say when you win the point in fencing

4:30 pm

nrkii -- get out of my head, or i'll put the wires back on my helmet!

4:30 pm

AHAH!!!!

4:30 pm

nrkii, it also looks like German.

4:30 pm

Oh God I don't know how to spell it!!!

4:30 pm

stid, rofl

4:31 pm

stid - which clue did you see...i've given two different kinds, maybe one of the others would help

i want tu6/27....cannot get it! *pouts*

4:31 pm

I saw one where you said it sounded like a cell ph***

need a clue for the re 6/18 either one is stumped me, i hate re's

4:31 pm

then try fo + anagram of a female chicken

4:32 pm

*Katie joins TO in pout*

4:32 pm

stidmama, ty I have that 1. I need the last 1

4:32 pm

TO -- after the third letter in the tu** add the third letter of the alphabet, then end with hole thing with a vowel

4:32 pm

hi froelich. my stupid laptop is SLOW...it just now got completely logged in.

4:32 pm

4:32 pm

re 6/18's: to make a home like a bird again to hold a grudge

4:32 pm

and re + anagram of someone between 12 and 20

4:32 pm

The 1 after the letter sizes

4:33 pm

thank you hurshy -- that worked... of course it was the LAST anagram I tried...

4:33 pm

it DOES sound like that word! thanks nrkii!

cu you all later!

4:33 pm

4:34 pm

4:34 pm

any clues on the first cr? it's making me nuts

4:34 pm

hi and bye temple!

4:35 pm

no -- I meant it was the last possible way to arrange those three letters... I tried all the others first!

4:35 pm

ls1 - you want googleable or something else?

4:35 pm

lol, i know stidmama, i just teasing

4:35 pm

cr 8/45 is something you apply to wood to preserve it

4:35 pm

stid, she's ok. I'm exhausted. I got about 3 hours of sleep last night & that might be an exaggeration. we actually just dropped her off at the hospital to go home with the family. they were discharged this afternoon

4:35 pm

thus the wink

4:35 pm

yes nrkii, it's less interactive, but it's a good way to make sure clues haven't been posted yet... sometimes, people get testy about re-posting clues that were already given which can lead to even MORE debate than we are already h aving.

4:35 pm

i'm not pivky, just lazy. if i don't have to look it up i'll be happier

ty hurshy

4:36 pm

yeah, they're going home!

4:36 pm

Wow, that was a quick discharge! Must mean your sister's doing well. Hope you'll be able to get a nap today!

4:48 pm

er6 - made of two 3-letter parts. The first means before, the second means the present moment.

4:48 pm

as i do this mostly at work, the only downfall i see is that you can't minimize the window to fast. As this is not a permanent job for me I don't care. BUT I WILL HAVE WITHDRAWALS AT A REAL JOB. 2 weeks and i am hooked already.

4:48 pm

ah, that helped a lot, thanks hurshy

4:48 pm

smarvelous, isn't it smazing! :)

4:48 pm

4:50 pm

no, one is ve 5 plus a letter, the other one is different

4:50 pm

smazing...when I wasn't working from home, I'd have to keep 2 tabs open to switch between. I'd also just come on every once in a while and get as many words as I could and then log off or I'd would haved ended up fired I'm sure :)

wa8 and 9 (no wh9) are based off the the wa 6/30 (sounds like a Chinese appetiser)

5:00 pm

oh shoot, I had that 8, tx for the nudge for the 9

5:00 pm

yes...the th9 is compound th5/12+ un 4/5

5:00 pm

figures I missed a plural (what else)

5:01 pm

no worries nrkii!

5:01 pm

KRISTIN, THANKS!!!

5:01 pm

nrkii - anyone would, because naturally you'd assume the wa8 was a comparative, not a noun

5:01 pm

yup

5:01 pm

an4/5

5:02 pm

se 8 & 9?

5:02 pm

an4/5 - your pooping-place

5:02 pm

se9 something that comes out of something, as ink out of a squid

5:02 pm

se8 - remove vowel from se9

5:02 pm

ylleria, I have the 9, which is se 6/21 plus charged particle

5:03 pm

re8?

5:03 pm

got it, thanks hurshy/nrkii

5:03 pm

hurshy - what is a pooping place ;-(

5:03 pm

5:03 pm

um, in your body, norma

5:03 pm

no 9?

5:04 pm

thanks, Hursh!

5:04 pm

no9 pl of no7 villain (use a prefix for no7)

5:04 pm

ylleria, opposite of people you look up to

5:04 pm

like on4,5 only different vowel at beginning, norma

5:04 pm

thanks hurshy - bit thick 2nite ;-((

i was at the nat'l restaurant show today (my friend is a chef, so i get to go -closed to public) bush was there babbling - it is amazing all the $$$ spent for him to come here for only 2 hours

5:05 pm

thanx pabtrel

5:05 pm

sorry pab fingers a bit dislexic

5:05 pm

helenkeller - my husband was there today too, said the same thing.

5:05 pm

5:05 pm

yw

5:05 pm

BUSH PLAYS BABBLE?!?!?!

Hey Rish, how's it going?

5:06 pm

hurshy - he's not really equipped to play babble

5:06 pm

hah...that's how I read that too hurshy!

i love going - lotsa food, tons of great samples & tons of free stuff -haven't been able to go last 2 years cause of bad hip, but now with the new one i can walk (& eat) for hours

5:06 pm

does he monkey type!

5:06 pm

what if nuclear was in the grid

yes hurshy - i believe bush has always been a babbler (that does not mean he plays & babbles at the same time like we do, ll)

5:06 pm

no he is...there's all kinds of made up words in babble

5:07 pm

you guys got me worried i'd be put on the enemies of the state list, cause i've said not-so-nice things about him in the chat log...

lol kris

5:07 pm

as a result, he's probably excel at it

ls1 - do you live in chicago or is hubbie on a business trip?

5:08 pm

that's sooo true. monkey speak, monkey type!

LOL smaz!!!

5:08 pm

5:09 pm

goodnight ylleria!

5:17 pm

une, you confused me with the dog, but I finally substituted "child" and got there :)

5:20 pm

tx

5:21 pm

so what else can you figure out about me marc, this is fun ;)

No strikes because you have siblings close in age and your obviously not a middle child you are free spirit and therefore many odd things pop into your head.

Also, need another clue for the last re8

5:21 pm

Thanls hurshy

5:22 pm

the last re8 alphabetically is bringing back together - like at a high school 10-year ....

My daughter just moved to Boston, for no apparent reason other than she wanted a change of pace from Seattle.

5:23 pm

hmm... define "free spirit" (i don't think it's near the top of the list of terms that would come to mind about me for people who know me well, so i'm curious what it entails)

5:23 pm

hi all

5:24 pm

came back to get my last 100 words, so expect me to ask for a lot of clues :P

A free thinker but conservative in your behavior. Thinks out of the box but lives in the box.

5:24 pm

hmmm, yes and no. but not bad.

marc - i think that's a great way to sum her up :)

5:25 pm

Good morning everyone.

5:25 pm

good morning, its evening here

5:30 pm

Hi chak, welcome

5:30 pm

i do that all the time nrkii, like the other day with "slong" or whatever it was that went straight down the grid

5:30 pm

I agree feather, lots of words build off one another in this one

5:30 pm

5:41 pm

thanks Hurshy, that worked. Last one is to 5/12.

5:41 pm

if you say no, you re**** to do what is asked. now if you look at that and you flip over the 3rd letter, you'll have the re 6/21.

5:41 pm

7:08 pm

Both wa are realted to the wa 6/30, just expand to person who does it and plural

7:08 pm

it's a misspelling of that

7:09 pm

Dax, it sounds like one who does chinese soup, but the first vowel is an "a" and not an "o"

7:09 pm

the wa, is a small version of an eggroll... also it mean reckless.

7:20 pm

inge, could you elaborate on the no/9 please?

7:22 pm

Well I haven't played for two days, let's hope for a more reasonable one tomorrow.

7:22 pm

no 9 starts like words preceding it, then add he 4/5

7:23 pm

means an idol out of favor

7:23 pm

for the 9 points pluralize it

7:23 pm

if you are wonder woman and superman, you are he... but if you are lex luthor and oh say, the Joker, you are no.he...

7:24 pm

7:24 pm

Hi ExWren. Thanks for the e-mail. Sorry for not replying yet.

7:24 pm

th 6 is plural of th 5

7:25 pm

inge, thanks

7:25 pm

Jac, I never log out in the 1st place... so you could look me up and I'm always on!!!!!! :)))))))

7:25 pm

Oops, I said a word! Sorry!

7:25 pm

th6/24 anyone

7:26 pm

Jen - I clear the browsers when I switch off.

7:26 pm

oldfashioned way of saying therefore

7:26 pm

th6/24 - from that place.

7:27 pm

I keep as many log-ons and passwords as possible... we are wired as opposed to wireless anyway....

7:27 pm

thanks for the clues jen, inge, and exwren

7:27 pm

th 6 rhymes with he 6

7:27 pm

tu 6/27?

7:27 pm

duuuuuuhhhh, and my passwords are.....

7:28 pm

don't have he6 and can't figure out the the/24

7:28 pm

fran- tu 6/27 sounds like a slang term for one's bottom

7:28 pm

Hurshy clued tu 6 as a cute word for your bottom,

7:29 pm

thanks abe!!

7:29 pm

yw

7:29 pm

peri, which he6s do you have?

7:29 pm

the 6: start with th 4 above it

7:30 pm

Jen - I keep nothing on the computer, not even an address book; if a virus got in it could wreak havoc. Firewalls and virus/worm checkers can't stop everything.

7:30 pm

the only he6 I have is the plural of the he4/5 (i..e. superman)

7:30 pm

and end it lke the 5/12 above

7:31 pm

peri, one of them was in a recent grid, it's a prefix for same, opposite of homo

7:31 pm

he 4 starts with word for female chicken, then third letter and second vowel

7:32 pm

if you get that he word, just add the t in front

7:32 pm

I know Jac... {{slaps own wrists}} we are pretty good about protection, but could be better. Actually thinking about converting to all Apple soon, which will be even safer, so-to-speak

7:32 pm

7:52 pm

Gramma - last no5/10 is plural no4/4 (a reporter takes no*** ). Last no6/18 is an idea.

7:53 pm

hi luwanda

7:53 pm

cr 8: cr + second vowel + fourth vowel + snake letter + fourth vowel + crossed letter and second vowel

7:54 pm

oooo, you know, i had tried something similar, must have not spelled it right

7:54 pm

thank you!!!!!

7:55 pm

It took me forever to find the right letters, even though I knew the term

7:55 pm

Jacula, I have those words. I must be confused. I know I'm missing 2.

7:55 pm

Hello Aloy - how you doing?

7:56 pm

I've sort of been missing anyway, but I'll BBL after I put my munchkin to bed.... :)

7:56 pm

gramma, do you have the no4/8 and 5/18 combo that's at this time + t?

7:56 pm

night jen

7:56 pm

Jacula, how about the no5 and 6 after the no4/4 (brief message)

7:56 pm

Gramma - check your stats boxes. That should help.

7:57 pm

Gramma - no5 & 6 after the brief message is one who takes no**** and its plural.

7:57 pm

FranMag, yes, I do. Thanks though.

7:58 pm

i think it's the one who takes no*** then

7:59 pm

i have three Vs left, can i get a clue for the frst ve6/27?

8:00 pm

Help! I'm utterly confounded. I have the NO4/4 - the 1 who writes them and it's plural...the plural of the NO4/4 and an idea. Then I have NO4/8 and it's plural.

8:01 pm

I said a while back (a few days) that I remember that a couple of years ago Dr_God had to stop animated icons/avatars on the site as they were interfering with it in some way. I think the animated fireworks may well have been doing the same. They were, perhaps, the gremlin in the works that were causing the new site probs., or, at least, most of them.

8:24 pm

ornith do you mean an er7

8:24 pm

es5/10 chemical type (organic chem)

8:24 pm

8:25 pm

I've heard people say the site is faster since the fireworks are gone - it was never all that slow for me though

8:25 pm

time to put out the garbage and go to bed. Night all.

8:25 pm

i think it has been faster, sans fireworks

8:25 pm

8:31 pm

go ahead jacula! i think i can handle some clues

8:31 pm

se4/4 other than "mailed", and se5/10? (Jacula, needn't stay on my account)

8:31 pm

enjoy, jacula.

8:32 pm

other se4/4 sounds like the sc word

8:32 pm

have fun Jac.... I gotta do this on my own ( or with the help of A2Z, hee hee)

8:32 pm

se 5/10, when you put something down it's se*** the floor

8:32 pm

hi

8:33 pm

thanks! :)

8:33 pm

hi miss ABS!

8:33 pm

fenc

8:33 pm

i've just had a little cry as you are blaming me for the scattering of the players apart from ABE

8:33 pm

Jen - The only 2 words I had to go to a2z for were those damned Alexander Graham Bell fo words.

8:33 pm

you got them both?

8:33 pm

sniff sniff

8:33 pm

Scatty - Are you looking for attention and sympathy?

8:33 pm

yup fran. now how about st6/18, not rockthrower?

8:34 pm

yes please

8:34 pm

"there's no crying in babble"

8:34 pm

i think i've been kicked off

8:34 pm

nooooo fran

8:34 pm

eh? I see you fran...

8:34 pm

oh ok, i'm ok now, was bored

8:35 pm

kicked off by whom

8:35 pm

Incidentally, Scatty, being as you're only a bit younger than me and you are from UK you might remember the old public information TV ads about calling for the coastguard? They featured a cartoon couple called Joe & Petunia.

8:35 pm

i got kicked off!

8:35 pm

oh i knowcry wolf etc

8:35 pm

how many words today?

8:36 pm

266

8:36 pm

fran what are you on about

8:36 pm

They've been updated and re-released. Hilarious then and same now. 'Ooh! He's going for a little swim... Oh, no. He's changed his mind... Ooh! He's waving to us!' Remember them?

8:36 pm

when did you finish jacula

8:36 pm

ah, got my st :)

8:36 pm

About 3 hours ago, Scatty.

8:37 pm

oh wait, no I didn't, I got the st that lickety was missing

8:37 pm

Anyway, do you remember the ads., Scatty?

8:37 pm

I need proper cell phone advise... I got a random pic from a phone number I DON'T know... and I don't know the kids in the pic... should I call the person back and tell them they got the wrong PSC number?

8:37 pm

when i saw how many today, i nearly fell over, sprite said that there has been a 600 word grid, it must have taken al day to complete, i'm glad i didn't play that day

8:37 pm

i just had to reconnect

8:37 pm

he8?

8:37 pm

Dr_God added an s5/10 manually, apparently.

8:38 pm

600-word grid? She was having you on!

8:38 pm

jen, i think t hat would be a courteous t hing to do once

8:38 pm

ah. strange.

8:38 pm

is it the one where they were messing about in the water, got nto trouble, but were ignored because they thought they were playing about again

8:38 pm

feather, it's an old-fashioned word used in legal docs

8:38 pm

I'm still missing the first st6/18, it seems

8:39 pm

she said that it was an early one

8:39 pm

nm, just got it

8:39 pm

feather - he4/4 + un4/5

8:39 pm

Scatty - that's the one. You can view it again, plus new version at http://www.coitvfillers.co.uk

8:39 pm

thanks for the advice, abe... think I'll do that...

8:40 pm

I'm a Babble pro!

8:40 pm

can anyone help with the in8, in7 and in 6 at the bottom of the in list?

8:40 pm

yay beth!!

8:40 pm

i had to buy alot of salt today as it is the only thing the slugs cannot cross and the dogs dont like, fingers crossed my plants might survive now

8:40 pm

i usually give wrong cell phone numbers a call, once

8:40 pm

welcome beth

8:40 pm

got it!

8:40 pm

the in6 is the opposite of inthecountry

8:40 pm

debb, last in6 is the opposite of incountry

8:41 pm

in word, when you clean your face, you use clenser, ***** and moisturiser

8:41 pm

the in8 is the plural of the 7/28 before it

8:41 pm

and the in7/28 is the plural of the 6/18 before it

8:42 pm

thank you thank you thank you

8:42 pm

great clue scatty! unless it's a guy you're talking to. ;-)

8:42 pm

I think it's the 3rdperssing, actually, fran, that's a verb....

8:42 pm

featherbee, how are yu getting on

8:42 pm

jacula, did i et the advert right

8:43 pm

93 left...was distracted for about an hour

8:43 pm

working on hos for now

8:43 pm

i know ornith, but everyone seems to understand that making it plural means adding an S

8:43 pm

to5/12?

8:43 pm

jacula, why is it on the net now

8:44 pm

and featherbee, you're doing what now? :P

8:44 pm

Scatty - yes. I gave you a link to see it on your pc, should you wish to.

8:44 pm

featherbee, you will finish easily

8:44 pm

lol, ok, you're right, that didn't sound good!

8:44 pm

ornith - T+on4/5 that means responsibility

8:44 pm

i'd like to be done by 11...it's 9:45 here now

8:45 pm

anyone else watching 24?

8:45 pm

The film archive society 'do' is due soon. june 9th, I think. They are rereleasing many public safety films.

8:45 pm

to 5/12= a large weight plus us

8:45 pm

thanks fran/phand

8:45 pm

24 is very intense

8:45 pm

Jeez! Was worrying a bit there! Thought I'd typed 'pubic' safety films!

8:46 pm

I think they made us watch those in health class, Jacula

8:46 pm

i'm missing a te 5/12, 6 combo at the end of the te's. i have the ordinal

8:46 pm

i believe that would be a different society jacula!

8:47 pm

abe: the one that's not here?

8:47 pm

Indeed it would, FranMag!

8:47 pm

it's a te5/12 that sounds like the te5/10 at the end, different spelling

8:47 pm

pubic safety films is much funnier than anythinglese Jac!

8:47 pm

i think that is a good idea, i would like to know why in the uk they don't start showing the danger to fireworks until a few day before firework night and stop straight after the 5th, but you can still buy them until after the new year. if there are so many rules for buying them , how come its mainly children that have them

8:47 pm

tu6?

8:48 pm

that would be anything else...

8:48 pm

True, Jen. Anyway, surely the public must know how to protect their pubes?

8:48 pm

tu 6 is a fish

8:48 pm

sorry

8:48 pm

ornith, sounds like a nickname for your bottom

8:48 pm

ho8...does it follow the previous pattern?

8:48 pm

Well aren't there enough commericials for meds for genital herpes nowadays?

8:49 pm

almost looks like the fencing term

8:49 pm

omg, i actually missed the tu4/6

8:49 pm

tu is your rear end

8:49 pm

yes ho 8 follows pattern

feather - are you STILL here, lol, me too - just came back for last 34, how many you got?

8:50 pm

87

8:50 pm

ho 8 is the comparative form of ho6/21 before it

8:50 pm

was distracted for an hour though

8:50 pm

featherbee, if you don't tell a lie, you are ho6/21, if you are more so than than you are ho8

8:50 pm

Jen - Here in UK they do occasionaly show ads for a cream for 'cold sores'. Zovirax. Works 'down there', too.

excuses, excuses .... :))

8:50 pm

that's a word???? lol, thank you jen

8:50 pm

yeah yeah helen! ;)

8:50 pm

featherbee yes the ho8 has the exact letters as the one above it with a vowel and con on the end

8:51 pm

Hi, Helen. Thought you'd gone!

8:51 pm

huh, I only know a four letter tu "rear end". well, I think I know a yiddish 6, but its not in the puzzle. :/ any other tu6 clues?

8:51 pm

hi helen

8:51 pm

Jac, we are getting ads for "I don't have time for a herpes flare up" meds!! It's like, you had time to get it, you have time to take care of it!! (IMHO)

8:52 pm

oh crud, look at all those i words i don't have

8:52 pm

the last four letters are the start of the word for what you do each day - you follow your daily ********

yep, went to do some yardwork before it got dark, now dark - but only have 8 minutes until 'medium' starts

8:52 pm

ornith, tu+first part of elementary ***ool+silent vowel

8:52 pm

featherbee did you say, tu4/6, there isn't one

8:53 pm

tu6/27 - anagram of 'chutes'.

8:53 pm

thank you fran

8:53 pm

meant the fish one, literally

8:53 pm

wasn't counting

8:53 pm

makes sense

8:53 pm

it's one of those OOB words, only on Babble

8:54 pm

OMG, I start a rant about herpes and Jack Bauer gets... well don't want to spoil it for others....

8:54 pm

any random hints for the i words? would you believe i only have the 4/4, nothing else?

8:55 pm

Jen - no idea who you are talking about so you've not spoiled anythng for me.

8:55 pm

feather, in6/18 - what is your in****? what do you plan to do

8:55 pm

how many words today?

straight rip off from alias

8:56 pm

in+ clean your face, clenser, *****+moisturiser

8:56 pm

i's.... to intend, to bury, buries, compound preposition, chant and several related words; last in is the opposite of inthecountry

8:56 pm

in6/18 (root of 4 words) - to recite in a singing or a monotone.

8:56 pm

in5/10 bury in the ground

8:56 pm

8:56 pm

er....whoops. sometimes my brain fails at picking decent synomnyms!

8:56 pm

in+ a bigger village

8:56 pm

feather, if you have someone cremated, you in5/10 them... also means "between"

8:56 pm

oh, thanks scatty, that one led to a bunch of others!

8:56 pm

the cleanser one

8:57 pm

yes helenkeller, my roommate is cursing the tv right now

8:57 pm

in6/18 - robbery with in**** (a camping word is starred out).

8:57 pm

io 6 = io + zero

8:57 pm

that was all of them feather!

8:57 pm

featerbee, it was the only way i could think of a girl getting the clue

8:57 pm

Jen - the in5/10 means to bury in UK, not to burn.

abe -this is how they end the season????

8:58 pm

how about ve6/27's? I only have the one which is + no4 on your face

8:58 pm

To burn is to cremate.

8:58 pm

wow, thanks everyone!

8:58 pm

9:01 pm

*buddy

9:02 pm

bluephlox, i just signed onto aim (didn't realize i was off)

9:02 pm

last ve 6/27 sounds like past tense of the verb ve5/16, but it's spelled differently

9:02 pm

georgiaj, you have to be a BabblePro to have a pic

9:02 pm

that's the ve5/16 I'm missing I think

9:02 pm

add another vowel to the ve5/16 that also sounds like past tense

9:03 pm

ve5+ the letter after s

9:03 pm

brb

9:03 pm

huh

9:03 pm

i just got babblepro...now what?

9:03 pm

9:03 pm

geogia, go to your profile and upload a picture

9:04 pm

Scatty - Finland won with heavy rock band, Lordi's Heavy Rock Halleluja. However, it seems the good people of Finland weren't too happy about 46 per cent of their population voting for a so-called 'Satantic' band. Oh, happy days! Back to Black Sabbath and Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson then! True rock is pure theatre.

9:04 pm

hmm. none of the ve5/16s are verbs...

9:04 pm

sorry it's the same ve that's a part of a song

9:05 pm

The Eurovision song contest was last weekend. It's not on TV now.

9:05 pm

Congrats on upgrading! go to "my account" and you should be able to put in whatever you want! And again, welcome to the madness!

9:05 pm

was it very like Black Sabbeth, now they were good misic, even my children like them

9:05 pm

i agree jacula, there is a certain amount of theatrics in live metal

9:05 pm

was uk near the bottom again

9:05 pm

the ve5/16 and ve6/27 you're missing sound like if you put a D on the end of the part of a song

9:05 pm

I'm not sure which one of the clues is for which anymore - just missing the last ve6

9:06 pm

do you have all the ve5/16?

9:06 pm

welcome geogia

9:06 pm

yup

9:06 pm

cfgjdghjdhj

9:07 pm

take the last ve5/16 and add an E

9:07 pm

I read about the Euro awards and the Russians say there was a fix... never heard either song.... are they good?

9:07 pm

ornith, if you have the first ve 6, wiggle tha last three letters around

9:07 pm

aha, the one thing I missed monkeytyping all the other clue :P

9:08 pm

9:14 pm

9:14 pm

9:14 pm

yes fran. i have the part of the eye and the following 7 and 8. i'm missing the next 6

9:23 pm

i tried to play the guitar when i was at school, but after years of my mother paying for piano lessons, she gave up as i could never work out how to read music, i was fine at playing something once i had heard the peice to be played,

9:23 pm

abe, take the very last re word and add a T in the middle

9:24 pm

franmag, THANK YOU. the r's are done!

9:24 pm

hi, i didn't see in the help how to make sense of the tile stats. any quick help, please?

9:24 pm

Abe - re6/21 - Having a rounded or obtuse apex with a central shallow notch. Failing that, if you say 'no' then you ref***. Change 3rd letter.

9:24 pm

yay abe!

9:24 pm

ok, night all - might be back for the flip

9:25 pm

night ornith!

9:25 pm

my god, could i have made finding that stupid last on4/5 any harder????

9:25 pm

the tiles tell you how many wors you have starting with each letter

9:25 pm

leanne, tile stats correspond to each tile in the grid, the last number tells you how many words start with that tile, the first number tells you how many you've found

9:25 pm

Jac, I'm a classical baby at heart (my Daddy is a classical/baroque trumpeter), so that, jazz, 80's new-wave/alt (siouxie, New Order, New Model Army, "real" U2), 90s... NIN Depeche Mode (again), U2 (again), Dave Matthews Band, The Connells, Ocean Blue...

9:25 pm

thanks jacula!

9:25 pm

night ornith

9:26 pm

okay, that's what i figured. thanks

9:26 pm

Scatty - I understand. I can read music, very simply and after a fashion, but I play by ear better. However, my piano 'triumphs' are 'God Save The Queen' and 'Chopsticks'.:/

9:26 pm

recorder was the best for me

9:26 pm

I did violin, piano and flute! :)

9:27 pm

i tried the violin once and the cat ran away, i don't know why

9:27 pm

Oh, and my own composition from when I was about 7, entitled 'Bluebells in the Wood'. Played on piano... fine. Played on mouth organ/harmonica or even recorder, it made our dog of the time HOWL in tune. Erm... think she was enjoying it!

9:28 pm

about the tile stats, why are some letters listed 2 or 3 times?

9:28 pm

are you sure about that jacula, your dog was probably trying to drown the noise out

9:29 pm

I was pretty good back in kindergarten with the violin... but since I was following the "Suzuki method", that meant taking off the cheat tape of my bridge... that's whn I got scared and quit!

9:29 pm

if you look at the grid, the tiles are in the same order underneath

9:29 pm

Ping, they correspond to the grid. If there is an O at the top and one at the bottom, the stats tell you how many words can be started with each of those o's.

9:30 pm

My Gran (Dad's Mum) once decided that he should learn violin, so he told me. After 2 weeks practising, my 'never waste a halfpenny' Grandmother, broke the violin over her knee. Oh dear! Never mind! At least her son wen on to become a head choirboy. Had it been 'these days' he was far better than Aled Jones!

help please - ce 6/24?

9:30 pm

my vocabularly is apparently ridiculously poor, i can't come up with hardly anything for some of the letters

9:30 pm

thanks, layne and scatty - i have been puzzled by that!

9:31 pm

only joking jacula, yu were probably a beautiful player, the dog was the vocialist

9:31 pm

are you "serious" helen?

9:31 pm

helen, add a consonant to the word above it

9:31 pm

(hint)

9:32 pm

You weren't joking, Scatty. You are just CROOOOEEL! lol.

9:32 pm

leanne, don't beat yourself up over your vocab! I get about 1/4 of the words by monkeytyping and don't know what they mean once I've found them!

9:32 pm

oops, sorry wrong word

9:32 pm

cr 6/21? i didn't realize i missed that one

9:32 pm

Sorrry to ask again but I missed the hints when I was on the phone. Does anyone have the NE7/32?

9:33 pm

st 6/18, not someone with lots of rocks?

9:33 pm

NE7/32 - dead flesh.

9:33 pm

leanne, after playing for a while you will start to remember words that you have used in te past, i have learned 10 fold since i started to play, i still don't know what some of the weirder words mean but i remember to add them when the letters comply

ty

9:33 pm

thanks guys

9:34 pm

9:36 pm

Featherbee - I have finished the grid some hours ago, btw. I'll give you proper clues, if you wish. Am just chatting idly now.

9:37 pm

Jac, I constantly wonder why we can't add re to every word! LOL That is why I (and I haven't said this in about 90 minutes) HATE re words!!!

9:37 pm

10:24 pm

wassup- kids are like that. They also find the perfect moment to interrupt romantic moments.

10:24 pm

i think she had 30? left

10:24 pm

we've been lucky with that so far. no real mishaps. :)

10:24 pm

I was going to try to clue for folks who need it, but only part of my word list showed up! Anyone have any ideas? I had a devil of a time trying to get the page to load at all!

10:25 pm

someone that had problem, reloading worked

10:25 pm

that happens to me too stid - try to refresh

10:25 pm

uh oh... last week helenkeller wasn't able to see her list all day. couldn't finish

10:25 pm

Hey Gang

10:26 pm

Jen sounds like insurance to me.

10:26 pm

hey faeriekae!

10:26 pm

also had trouble loading page today

10:26 pm

hi faerie

10:26 pm

My two kids are 19 (March 26th) and almost 22 May 26TH) and they STILL do it!

10:26 pm

hi faeriekae

10:26 pm

nice icon faerie. I like the strawberry cheesecake the best.

10:26 pm

love your icon kae!

10:26 pm

JEN -- don't let them! When my grandmother (may she rest in peace) went in for face surgery they sent her home the same night... and my grandfather didn't know how to take care of her! She majorly overdosed on pain pills the next morning. Let them know how much he needs the skilled nursing care... don't let them send him home.

10:26 pm

Lots of hospitals will discharge patients because of insurance....then readmitt if necessary.

10:26 pm

Hey faerie! And no, it's Kaiser Permenente that wants him out of the hospital!!

10:26 pm

Wassup - Chunky Monkey for me LOL

10:27 pm

Jen - WHAT???

10:27 pm

Do you have the firty, blood-spattered and cushion slashed hospitals we have here in UK?

10:28 pm

I know that we have advanced dramatically in medicine but What in the world???

10:28 pm

Hi Jac...and Stid :)

in need of help............ho 4,9 ??? Thanks

10:28 pm

okay, I'll try to refresh. If I don't come back it's because this TARDIS still doesn't listen to me most of the time!

10:28 pm

Looks like he'll (my g-pa) stay thru tomorrow since he's not, uh, passing things... (guess that buys him a free pass)

10:28 pm

Or the nurses, so called on Psychiatric wards, who never should have done so because they are madder than the patients?

10:28 pm

are they really that bad jacula?

10:29 pm

well, I'll change all that, after din din

10:29 pm

Dad will stay in for 2 nights... or until the morphine drip wears off, LOL

10:29 pm

LOL

10:29 pm

10:29 pm

thank you!!

10:29 pm

Jen talk to Scatty about morphine...she takes it for her back pain.....the drug just scares me...LOL

10:30 pm

Wassup - Yes, the NHS hospital casualty areas really are that bad!

10:30 pm

good evening. got done at work, road the bus home, ate dinner and now it's time to babble on again.

10:30 pm

And I know about British hospitals.... picture it, 1991, a fresh faced happy-go-lucky College student from Florida State...

10:30 pm

morphine is gooood.

10:30 pm

Hi Smazing

10:30 pm

hi smazing

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

10:31 pm

Hi Libarebel :)

10:31 pm

hi lebarebel.

10:31 pm

Jen - you worked, or tried to work in one of our NHS hopitals?

10:31 pm

it could be worse smazing, you could have tried to give up babble for the summer!

10:31 pm

i was able to get 168 words done at work. not bad for a good days job.

10:31 pm

LOL Fran !!

10:31 pm

NOOOOOOO.

10:31 pm

i'm thinking jen had to go to one

10:31 pm

I was having "traveler's bathroom problems" for a month prior but it got unbearable the day I was supposed to see Agassi in the British Open

10:32 pm

oh that sucks jen...

10:32 pm

I was sent to a public hospital ER and ended up there for over 5 hours... and got sent home with charcoal tablets

10:33 pm

go on jen, i'm on the edge of my seat

10:33 pm

Oh Jen I'm sorry to hear that...are you feeling better now?

10:33 pm

Mind you. My daughter was in a private hospital earlier this year. They range me on my mobile, asking where we were. I told them we'd been in one of their rooms for 2 hours! As I said it, a nursing sister, with her ear clamped to her mobile talking to me, entered the room.

10:33 pm

6 months later I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease... (think Colitis, only uncurable)

10:33 pm

OMG Jacula your kidding.

10:33 pm

nope. that didn't work. I'll stick around and clue as I can, but... half the words aren't showing up in the list.

10:34 pm

sorry to hear that jen.

10:34 pm

how awful Jen

10:34 pm

oh Jen, how hard that must have been! Jacula, assume your daughter's better now?

10:34 pm

oh my god Jen, Jacula, that's horrible!

10:34 pm

Jen I also suffer with colitis so I know what your talking about....sick to stomache, sever cramps, sweating, not knowing if your going to sh** or puck.

10:35 pm

I'm done. 214 words found. 52 still to go but time for bed. Nighty-night all.

10:35 pm

night minski!

10:35 pm

Jen - m,y best mate's daughter has that. There are dietary things you can do to alleviate it. But (((HUGS))))) 'COS IT IN'T EASY.

10:35 pm

10:35 pm

Good Night Minski

10:35 pm

10:35 pm

nit minski

10:35 pm

me too, jen. sounds awful.

10:35 pm

My grandmother almost died from Crone's Disease. I feel for you. It sucks big time!

10:36 pm

After 13+ years, I have finally gotten it under control (KNOCK WOOD EVERYONE NOW!!!!!!!)... in remission for 15 months now

10:36 pm

i'm going to concentrate on the puzzle for a few minutes. we'll see how that goes... :)

10:37 pm

10:38 pm

The only thing that doesn't work for me is lettuce when I'm in a flare up... and I am in remission now {knock wood}, so all foods are okay.

10:38 pm

All may stop knocking and BLESS you all!

10:40 pm

YAY macuser! good night...

*~*~*CONGRATS MACUSER*~*~*~

10:41 pm

10:41 pm

10:41 pm

blech. brussels sprouts. blech

10:41 pm

Stid are you still have problems? I've been noticing that the stats don't seem quit right.

10:41 pm

congrats macuser, good night

10:42 pm

well, I like 'em

10:42 pm

Smazing - then that's not cold turkey thats warm turkey LOL

10:42 pm

yes, when I logged back in the scripts didn't want to work, and I only have some of the words showing up in the list... but I finished earlier.

10:42 pm

yum. brusserls sprouts. yum

10:42 pm

blech is not in today's puzzle lol

10:42 pm

Stid - I had the same problem early in the day..and I had a hard time getting it to accept words.

10:43 pm

no, no. to read!

10:43 pm

can anyone give me clues on the O words?

10:43 pm

TY franmag!

10:43 pm

OK

10:43 pm

one O word is the sound pigs make

10:43 pm

on** upon a time

10:43 pm

another means just a single time

10:43 pm

Right, next q bout my daughter, 'ex' anorectic for 3 years now. She's modern, she gets all sor of piercings, but not 'that' sort, thank Gawd. She, like me, is a rocker. She's dressed accordinly for these days and is on her way back to a friend's house ;last Saturday night... then a red car with loud music playing screeches to a halt. One of her friends is sitting on the floor in the rain (they are all pleasantly p*ssed) trying to light a cigarette.. the Chavs (ask for the website if you do not know that term) screeach to a halt. First off, they advance towards the chap on the ground just to kick the hell out of him because he does not dress like them or listen to the same sort of music. But my daughter, all 5 foot 1 inch of her, size 6/8 UK dress size, wades in to help. A 13 stone at leat 6-foot Chav guy punches her and then kicks her into the road. Fortunately, at about 3am on a Fiday morning, there is little traffic and so she does not get run over.

10:44 pm

when something is yours, you are the ***

10:44 pm

got that one LOL. The kids have been playing when they've got free time today. And they've done pretty well with 58 words. Not bad for 10 and 11 year olds.

10:44 pm

one o words is how a children's story begins

10:44 pm

And brussels sprouts, shredded with prociutto and cream... got me eattin' them

10:44 pm

plus plural

10:45 pm

oncer

10:45 pm

another on 4 is on + opposite of "from"

10:45 pm

oops... wasn't even trying to type that...

10:45 pm

oh my Lord Jacula!

10:45 pm

OMG Jaucla is everyone ok???

10:45 pm

nonce

10:45 pm

one O word is plural for a troll type creature from Lord of the Rings or Dungeons & Dragons

10:45 pm

how awful, (((jacula}}}

10:45 pm

I have a baseball bat here by my side. If I find the 'person' who found it some kind f=f entertainment, with his girlfriend watching from the car (does she not realise this male will pun ch her,too, one day?) Ill show him every side of a baseall bat that there is. GRRRRRRRR!

10:45 pm

I think my C is sticking.

10:46 pm

i hope she's okay Jacula

10:46 pm

Jacula, that is so sad. Why do people do stuff like that *tears*

10:46 pm

and I am having issues getting it to stay in the add word box for some reason. I'll click on it and it puts it back in here with the cursor.

10:46 pm

another o4 word means burden

10:46 pm

or responsibility

10:46 pm

I am dismayed, jacula ... and teary

10:47 pm

Miss ARB's os + cross + 3rd vowel + 1st vowel...even though I'm not supose to clue like that.

10:47 pm

ooooh, Jac, so sorry! Know the eating disorder feeling! I was non binge-bulimic (waay before the Crohns, although I wonder....) meaning, I would eat a normal meal, not a binge-meal, and throw it up... Prayers to you!

10:47 pm

man, those kind of people piss me off. hope she's doing fine jacula

10:47 pm

time wounds all heels?

10:48 pm

True - libarel.

10:48 pm

10:49 pm

I am a VERY good shot with a pistol... want me to come over?

10:49 pm

OOh, and a rifle from 50 yards...

10:49 pm

She's healing well, eye, legs, back etc. But what really, really p**s me off is wondering what kind of world it is that makes a male think it's okay to punch a girl?

10:50 pm

Especially such a little one.

10:50 pm

that's good to know jen. there's a bunch of idiots in my neighbor hood that you could practice on.

10:50 pm

10:51 pm

'night stidmama!

10:51 pm

here here fran. i agree.

10:51 pm

She (my daughter) has taken it v. well, i,e, 'That's what Chavs do'. My son told me said Chavs would jut knif me if I tried for retribution. He said it quite casually. My God! What IS the world coming to?

10:52 pm

Jacs - there is no answer. Some kids are just plain stupid...and need the sh** kicked out of them.

10:52 pm

Jac - ever think of moving?

10:52 pm

Jac, what is a Chav?

10:52 pm

10:55 pm

no9, opposite of superman and his friends

10:55 pm

10:55 pm

marc, three letters for "not" then like superman, batman etc - super******

10:55 pm

Dixie chix really don't deserve any air as far as I'm concerned they suck.

10:56 pm

Faerie do you like Alison Krauss and Union Station ?

10:56 pm

Faerie, I live in a rural village. What happened was in a country market town 5 miles away. Mind you, 10 miles away in the other direction, about 3 years ago, she got Ketamine (a horse tranquiliser) slipped into her drink. That was not long after she had come out of hospital. I'd warned her about the taking car of your drink thing before she'd even gone to the club. However, as I found out some months after the event, paramedics spent 30 mins saving her life on the wet pavement outside the club. She also told me she went back next day to thank them.

10:56 pm

Miss ABS - YES I do as a matter of a fact. LOL

10:57 pm

Cool! I live with an AK fan like no other so she's kinda worn off on me.

Thanks Leslie

10:57 pm

OMG! that is awful.

11:40 pm

uzey - just type in the plural of the number you just posted.

11:40 pm

then you can ask for clues but again it is common you find as many words as you can b4 u ask ok?

11:40 pm

what about clues

11:40 pm

logic? i dont think i'm clear... :) i don't use any. just start typing until I go crosseyed

11:41 pm

11:43 pm

ladies, really. there are people who need help with babble here. could you take it outside?

11:43 pm

Chat log rules: DO NOT POST WORDS. Almost done it clues are acceptable very near to the flip. Otherwise, you just have to work them out. That's the fun. No point in being here if you don't like working things out.

11:43 pm

deb - sounds like the first part of *** arthritis

wassup - yes that helps, thank U

11:44 pm

re 5/18 - what you do with a needle and thread, change vowel
