1:08 am

1:10 am

awww :) I have quite a few kittys, some are rescues up for adoption, most are mine !

i have 2. one belongs to my son - she's gotten huge - my ex-bro-inlaw calls her Jabba the Cat!

i was trying to invent a kitty smilie

1:13 am

lol I have a huge one myself, he is so heavy he is hard to lift. Maine Coon, not really fat, just big and wobbly lol

this one is fat. trouble is the little one likes to nibble all day. they jockey for alpha position all the time!

1:13 am

1:31 am

hi all :)

1:31 am

hi Atalante

1:33 am

this isn't a nice grid, I take it?

1:34 am

You can say that again...

1:35 am

Not for me, I don't know alot of the obscure words, haven't been playing long enough to learn them I guess. I rarely complete them, but I do have fun finding the ones I can, might help if I use the clue pages, but I don't.

1:35 am

oh lovely ...

1:35 am

that's all it is though, Cat. Fun finding words. And you'll soon start to recognise some of the wierd ones

1:36 am

I am with you Cat9: fun as far as it goes, which is not very...

soap

2:37 am

It's also another word for agitated.

2:38 am

to make another word, add two letters at the end of the word to make it mean 'more' like - she is strong, but he is strong**

2:38 am

not a shower, but a ****

2:38 am

Haz if you have the ae4 I've just found it can be extended to a 7, strange word.

2:38 am

Did you guys figure out that you can just add a vowel to L4/5?

2:40 am

Just back from getting coffee - yes, Atalante clued the ae7 a while back.

2:41 am

188

2:41 am

Thanks!!

2:41 am

There's 188 words all together

It means an eight letter word worth 45 points

2:41 am

188 allegedly though where they're going to come from is a mystery.

jess: it means 8 letters, 45 points

ok

2:42 am

8 is how many letters long the word is, and 45 is how many points its worth.

3:07 am

oops, sorry, sheesh

3:08 am

I see you're trying random words like me :)

g2g guys

3:09 am

The ha8/55 word sure is an odd one! I was thinking it couoldn't be a real word but gave it a go none the less

do you have a hint for it, kitty?!

3:09 am

B'bye Jess!

3:09 am

Sure am Atalante, I'm stuck to just monkeying away :)

ctya

3:10 am

bye jess

3:10 am

ha8/55 means: Furnished with a small hook; hook-shaped.

ooh...thanks kitty, i forgot that i got that one after MUCH monkeytyping

3:10 am

ends with never on time (la4/4)

3:11 am

ty for that one

3:11 am

you're welcome :)

do you happen to have ro 8?

3:13 am

ro8/45 means: Arranged in little roselike clusters and it has the same ending as the ha8

3:13 am

ha8/55 sounds like you'e telling the pig meat that he is tardy with a southern accent!

3:13 am

haha! That's a good clue Frances :d

thank you so much for that, Frances!!!

3:14 am

Thank you

3:15 am

I am trying so hard to find the obscure ones, I am missing some obvious ones lol

3:15 am

anyone have clues for 7-letter words? i have 3 of them so far...

3:16 am

I'm just monkey typing away, found 5 words this way alread

3:17 am

found a few that way too Kitty

3:17 am

does anyone know what is different if you go pro? is that how you get to have an icon/profile?

3:17 am

sorry cg, I only have one 7 letter word so far

3:18 am

cat9x, which one? maybe i can help with two more...

3:18 am

I just went pro, yes you get all that plus the tils stats and word stats

3:18 am

i have the la7/32

3:18 am

I just went pro too, couldn't live without the stats

3:19 am

what are stats?

3:19 am

me either Kitty, thats the only reason I went pro

3:19 am

mi7=people who make the hamburger meat.

3:20 am

Thank you Avaneko!

3:20 am

no prob

3:21 am

its 2 grids below that show how many letter tiles are used in words in the grid, as you enter words, the numbers change. For instance, the top left i, is used in 6 words, and I have 2 of them.

3:21 am

meaning that the words start with that letter

3:21 am

sorry, didnt explain too well

3:22 am

hmm, i seem to have than anyway...so maybe i would get to have the icon and profile...

3:22 am

I had the stats free for 2 weeks, then they went away, so I went pro

you get them on a 14day free trial

3:22 am

The stats are only available for a trial period I believe

3:22 am

Same here

3:23 am

heh. this grid us one tile away from a big word that means carnal relations.

3:23 am

its worth the 14.95 to me to have the stats back

3:23 am

*is

3:23 am

It's an evil plot to get you addicted to them and once your trial period runs out, you just have to go pro so you can have them back! ;)

3:23 am

another clue for mi6/24,mi7/36: person/people who chop garlic into teeny little pieces...

3:24 am

LOL, Thats what I said to myself Kitty

3:24 am

ty cg

3:24 am

and yes, it is well worth the 14.95

3:25 am

how long is the trial period?

3:25 am

14 days

3:25 am

14 days

3:26 am

aha...i must be at about the end...so, next time i'm here, i'll have a profile...

3:27 am

the best $14.95 ever!

3:27 am

at 92 words, i think i'm stuck...still looking for i's...

3:27 am

There's only two sites I pay for, Babble and DeviantArt

3:28 am

4:12 am

I thought the computer went mad on mine :-)

4:12 am

i'm going back to the grid, i'm safer there, i hope

4:12 am

heh, no wonder it didn't make sense! :D

4:12 am

Okay, bye for real this time.

4:12 am

Shift the i and the c around and there would be a 9 letter fo word..... On second thoughts shift all the letters around and we might get somewhere.

4:13 am

4:14 am

My mind lives in the gutter.

oh haz! nice new look!!,,, love the hair!!

4:15 am

It took my hairdresser quite a while - the shaggy dog look.

LOL!! gorgeous doggy!!

4:15 am

LOL Haz

4:15 am

oh my! I just figured out Avaneko and Haz's comments!

4:16 am

I declare that there are some mornings when I get up, I look in the mirror and decide that no hairdresser could achieve what my hair looks like.

4:17 am

I haven't yet - I thought Haz meant vindicate, but as far as I know that's not an ugly word...

4:17 am

My own hair, you understand - Spangle is pretty, isn't she?

4:17 am

Most mornings are like that for me

you must have the expensive look then! $180 and still I look like a dog!

4:17 am

...oh, and what's the "idiot word"?

err... cat!

4:17 am

It's a word beginning with fo, amanda. (not the idiot one)

4:18 am

5:44 am

5:45 am

5:50 am

this grid is like pulling teeth!

5:51 am

One more D only! I just tried duvs...

5:51 am

i have 1 di and three du's.

5:52 am

d's: di4/8, du6/27, du4/7, du5/16, du4/6 x 3, du5/14

5:52 am

Keep looking jess Im sure you can find some more

5:52 am

1 di and 6 du's here

ok

its just so hard

5:53 am

one d is like what you do to socks, diff vowel

5:53 am

Best way is to try to get the t's or something instead, then go back to it.

5:53 am

Jess - think of your shoe stings. Then theing of what you might call the person that ties them.

5:54 am

and then the plural of that jess.

5:54 am

Du4/6 is missing here, one of the 3.

5:54 am

right. i'm missing du 6/27, du 5/16 and one du 4/6.

i cant figure it out

5:55 am

all the same with different ending letter

5:55 am

jess - what do you call the shoe strings?

5:55 am

jess, think of shoel___es

yeha but its not on here

5:55 am

Ah, of course! Thanks :)

5:56 am

5:56 am

du6/27 mmeans sweet, as in a sound or tone.

5:56 am

5:58 am

jess - when you are in a hurry you are in a ru**.

thanks

5:59 am

for the 5 or the 6? because i found the six..

5:59 am

i think i'd better had ata! lol

5:59 am

(that was a clue!)

6:00 am

that *was* a clue, lol, not a general pronouncement :)

6:00 am

oh! i have that one.. damn it! which one am i missing then? lol

6:00 am

take the 6, change a consonant, drop a consonant.

6:00 am

if you've got that one, the other 5 is a plural

6:00 am

Jess - when you have a bad cold and have trouble swallowing you might have a sore th****.

6:00 am

"close" was for the six - one 5 is a plural, one is a foolish hat

6:01 am

got it :) thanks guys! one day i'll learn how to play on my own, hehe.

thanks ut igot that one

6:01 am

hope not, miametro, that would spoil half of the fun ;)

6:05 am

6:05 am

6:09 am

oooh! i getcha. i thought you meant like, a mini babble, lol. as in, in a 4 square or something.

oh, thank you! god. that was driving me nuts. stupid latin words.

7:26 am

ylleria - one of them you wear to ward off the evil eye, the other is like the 4/5 right before it

7:31 am

Eva, scratch that clue

7:31 am

Ripped didn't come from that lower T

7:31 am

He's loving it, had a blast yesterday. His speech is really improving... he actuall initiated a conversation Sunday night!

7:31 am

How awesome for him! :)

7:33 am

that clue is going right ove rmy head amanda...heh

7:33 am

Good clue, amanda, thnx :)

7:33 am

Looks like it's going to be easier for me to take him in... since he's so little, riding the bus I will have to climb in & starp him into a carseat/booster. I don't know if you've been out my way recently, but going down my driveway is pretty much impossible for me now!

7:34 am

Jera, um, feel better. push fluids. nothing too acidic.

7:34 am

I'm hanging in there, spanner... all in all, life is good!

7:34 am

Hey, does the fireworks work again? WTG FMitch :)

Are the fireworks back? Yea!

7:35 am

WTG! Fmitch :)

7:36 am

Yes sprite, I emailed Jamie and he wasn't aware and has fixed it.

7:36 am

They started that mess when we lived here before...in 1999!!!!

7:36 am

any hints for the H on the left?

7:36 am

7:40 am

Exactly. Two biggies down ;)

7:40 am

And Henry VIII, a big hairy king, went up to the Pope and said, "Mr. Pope! I'm gonna marry my first wife, then I'm gonna divorce her. Now, I know what you're gonna say, but stick with me. My story gets better. Second wife, I'm gonna kill her! Cut her head off. Ah, not expecting that, are we? Third wife gonna shoot her. Fourth wife, put her in a bag. Fifth wife, into outer space. Sixth wife, on a rotissamat. Seventh wife, made out of jam..." and the Pope is saying, "You crazy bugger! You can't do all this, what are you a Mormon? It's illegal. What have you been reading?

Whales are intelligent. They do whale song. [imitates whale song] We don't know what it means. But I think whales are travelling at 78. They're travelling at 78 speed, if we take them up to 45 speed we'll find they're singing. [sings] I love you baby and if it's quite alright I love you baby, throughout the night, I love you baby, trust in me when I say.

Horseshoes are lucky. Horses have four bits of lucky nailed to their feet. They should be the luckiest animals in the world. They should rule the country. They should win all their horse races, at least. "In the fifth race today, every single horse was first equal...one horse threw a shoe came in third...the duck was ninth...and five ran."

Cake or death?" Uh, cake for me, too, please." "Very well! Give him cake, too! We're gonna run out of cake at this rate. You! Cake or death?" "Uh, death, please. No, cake! Cake! Cake, sorry. Sorry..." "You said death first, uh-uh, death first!" "Well, I meant cake!" "Oh, all right. You're lucky I'm Church of England!" Cake or death?"”

“And the National Rifle Association says that, "Guns don't kill people, people do,” but I think the gun helps, you know? I think it helps. I just think just standing there going, "Bang!" That's not going to kill too many people, is it? You'd have to be really dodgy on the heart to have that…”

9:43 am

sorry for the crudity of last comment...

9:43 am

Aussieme - They didn't make the name up. Engelbert Humperdinck (1854 - 1921) was the composer of the Hansel & Greta opera.

9:44 am

I'm finding the chatbox entries today hilarious. Thanks, movieman and Aussieme in paticular,for starting my day off so well

9:48 am

188 today clairemcg

9:48 am

188 words today, claire.

9:48 am

OK. I'll do that. But to me, the "handbag has always resembled head and shoulders of a person--pink t-shirt for gals and blue for guys--guess it's all in the p-erception

9:48 am

Aussieme - I guessed that. LOL. BTW, did you see Lee Evans on tv a couple of nights ago?

9:48 am

dear Aussie, who is Eddie Izzard? You are hilarious.

9:49 am

Yeah I did Jac, he was tremendous..... I nearly went into labour laughing !!

9:49 am

anybody with weird m's out there? i need two and mine are mostly normal except for a couple mu 4/6's

9:50 am

Hetty - I was here when the 'handbags' appeared. I said it looked like a handbag, someone else said crystal ball but, somehow, the 'handbag' thing stuck.

9:50 am

Aussie - the wife at the airport in her flipflops and holiday earrings. Sharing a 4' bath with the shpwer dripping on your head... tee, hee, hee.

9:51 am

i'm pretty sure that doc's intent was that it is the head and shoulders of a person, hetty.

9:51 am

Hi Jacs I remember that time too, funny to think there was a time before stat list and being pro.

9:51 am

it's like a chat icon

9:51 am

We know it's really a head and shoulders but calling it a handbag is more fun.

I know Jac, I could have died laughing.....

9:52 am

Thanks, Jac, I've seen it now and I was on track after all. Great find. I love the icon changes but don't make them because I've found one that sortof sums me up in perpetuity, and I don't like change --for myself, that is. Love it in others. Thanks for showing me my perception wasn't totally off the wall, Hursh

9:52 am

check out Eddieizzard.com...

9:52 am

Hi FMitch. I think that's why I still work the stats out myself and work mostly listless. It's because I got used to doing it in the beginning.

10:46 am

in 6/27 is a metal -- sounds like what the native americans might have called it !

10:47 am

NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE

10:47 am

Thanks, but I never used dapers with such a beginning name. I'll monkey type

10:47 am

oops in small letters -- sorry

10:47 am

hetty - think of a tween way to speak of amore

10:47 am

i don't get the clue, aknitter...

10:47 am

no problem knitter

10:47 am

hetty, it's a brand name, it rhymes with a feeling you have for your sweetheart

10:47 am

hetty -- ever play the flower game as a kid? he loves me, he loves me not?

10:47 am

Got it. Dumb word

10:48 am

hetty, think cloth

10:48 am

in**** , theres platinim, rhodium ....

10:49 am

theres me who can't spell -- make that platinum

10:49 am

You are all so helpful and I am SOOO dumb. But i got it, now I'm trying to finda word for metal sch as might have been coined by our first nations people--/inca?

10:50 am

lol aknitter...finally found it...

10:50 am

i don't get it still (big shock, i know)

10:50 am

not inca hetty, think wild west in America

10:51 am

I have an ha8 and a ro8 --- what is the alpha/numeric for the 3rd one?

10:51 am

hetty - you're probably thinking too intelligently about the clue

10:51 am

I'm thinking wild west. Nothing comes except Pocahontas

10:51 am

jbp think rhodium but drop the rho (i give bad clues)

10:51 am

omg thanks aknitter

10:51 am

it's more like a metal made out of native americans...

10:51 am

no, you don't give bad clues

10:51 am

mm -- al 8

10:51 am

i understand clues badly

10:52 am

10:53 am

i meant am4/6, not am6

10:53 am

may i have an ro 8 clue?

10:53 am

the as 6 -- Hewn or squared stone; also, masonry made of squared or hewn stone.

10:54 am

if frasier's producer didn't make it on time to work, kenny might say, "*** * ****!"

10:54 am

10:54 am

i love em hurshy! except i don't know frasier (boo on me :(

10:54 am

ro 8 -- starts like the flower then doesn't arrive on time

10:55 am

when Betsy didn't get the flag done on time George said

YAY MM!

11:02 am

BRAVO movie man

11:02 am

what are the fireworks? sorry im a newbie

11:03 am

11:03 am

dic - when you complete a grid you get firewoks graphic and congratulations

11:04 am

you mean all the words? geeze. Im only at 76

11:04 am

mm both v words start with wine

11:04 am

Oh are the fireworks back again? keep going then....

11:04 am

thank you aknitter

11:04 am

re your earlier lost look at likety's list under firends of babble that how people know the 1st 2 letters and number counts. 76 is a good start as todays grid is a real doozie.

11:04 am

dic444 they are a display Dr_God s built into the site to go off when a babbler completes the grid. Fo a while they worked, then they didn't (like for me yesterday) now apparnetly they are back. To see them you must earn them!

11:05 am

pls some clues for the v words...at a loss here

11:06 am

Re the fireworks Dr_G did not realise they had stopped working. I emailed him yesterday evening to let him know.

11:06 am

thnk of a plant from the periwinkle family

11:06 am

the first one is a plant --- first 3 letters of Italian wine + abbreviation for a far western US state

11:07 am

So we really have you to thank for them being restored, FMitch - a fine achievement, if I may say so.

11:07 am

the other is something derived from wine

11:07 am

y/w Haz

11:08 am

Bravo FMitch - except the site was being hateful last night and didn't give me any even though others got them.

11:08 am

Hi everyone!!! Should have read FMitch's post on today's being a "doozie" before entering some words... putting my Babble training wheels back on.

11:08 am

ok I have the plant...looking for the other one:) ty

11:09 am

It is more of a doozie than it first appeared Mama but I'm not totally frustrated yet.

11:09 am

What is a good average score?

11:09 am

Well I'll give it a shot anyway....

11:10 am

dic it just depends - word count changes every day. There are 188 words today

11:10 am

any du clues? i only have the harsh one

11:10 am

out of 188, what is good?

11:11 am

du6/27 - an adjective often used with 'tones'

11:11 am

188 if you ask me. But I'm an over achiever - just play until you can't stand it any more.

11:11 am

gettin close

11:11 am

du4/7 - russian parliament

11:12 am

depends on how much time you have/your vocabulary when I started I aimed for about 1/2 up to about 2/3 now

11:12 am

du5/16 - a cap worn by victorian schoolchildren to indicate their stupidity.

11:12 am

dlc it also depends on if you want to use aids like the licketys link at the bottom of the page

11:13 am

i think i am wearing that du cap today!

11:13 am

very true Sign, and then as the addiction grows you just get totally sucked in LOL

11:14 am

lol ty knit:) found a word

11:15 am

dic the beauty of this game is that we all work together. You are only competing against yourself

Oh wonderful....something I may actually be able to finish today!

11:15 am

I figured.

11:15 am

Got turned on to this by a professor. It will be my new addiction

11:16 am

TIme to make tea. Will be back later to continue the struggle. It'll be worth it to see fireworks (courtesy of FMitch)

12:07 pm

ta5/12? I'm just not seeing it.

12:07 pm

hi daisy -- dove right into finding as many of the clues as I could understand.... down to 70 words. This grid seems harder than yesterday.

12:07 pm

hi all!

12:07 pm

hi Fiz

12:07 pm

Hi Fiz!!

12:07 pm

I can't seem to help with any of the recent requests. I'm down to 77 words left -- no list yet

12:07 pm

un6/21: fake

12:07 pm

I have 87 left...been here off and on since a little after 6

12:08 pm

aha -- Didn't see that r4

12:08 pm

un6/21 -- hardly real

12:08 pm

missed you all - life's been *crazy* - nothing like a little babble to puth things back in perspective!

12:08 pm

haha -- the grids this week have been un 6/21!

12:08 pm

Thanks, Erda. One word to go. It's an sh.

12:08 pm

Missed you too Fiz --- no doubt Stid -- crazy

12:09 pm

I'll trade you an sh for my last three t's!

12:09 pm

It always seems to correspond that when I am very busy the grids are huge but when I have time to play they are easy

12:09 pm

Got it. Fireworks! Which t's do you need, gwenski?

12:09 pm

I've noticed that too MM

12:10 pm

Brava, Hydra! Which of your heads did it???

12:10 pm

ta5/12, and two th's. Lemme see which ones...

12:10 pm

Bravo Hydra

12:11 pm

th 6/21 after the prickly one

12:11 pm

to5/12. And congrats!

12:12 pm

ta5/12 means sloping mass of debris at base of cliff. Think of a 4 letter word meaning strong desire, then remove final consonant.

12:12 pm

to 5/12. A song has a verse and a ------. Swap first 2 letters for the t!

12:12 pm

YAY hydra!

12:13 pm

done!

12:13 pm

woohoo Angel!!!!!!

12:13 pm

Congrats, Angel!!!!

12:13 pm

Bravo angelsong

12:13 pm

Thanks, Hydra! Just found the th, too!!

12:13 pm

th6/21: stand over someone cursing and waving your fist and you're issuing a ------.

12:14 pm

the "verse" clue did it for me:) ty

12:14 pm

YAY angelsong!

12:14 pm

Thanks for the congrats. I'll finish my work now than collapse in front of the TV. Boyfriend is cooking dinner tonight!

12:14 pm

all I can think of is verse and refrain.....

12:14 pm

(yay for boyfriends)

12:15 pm

Well, now I need to declare lunch break over and get back to work. Thanks again for the clues!

12:15 pm

Think of another word for refrain...

12:15 pm

Erda, the people who are not the stars but support the musical by background songs and bridges...

12:15 pm

It's also a name for a group of people who sing together

12:15 pm

Erda - you sing in a ch

12:15 pm

or perhaps a group of singers

12:16 pm

orus

12:16 pm

okay erda, now add the T!

12:17 pm

yay -- got it -- another word I never heard of and never will again

12:17 pm

Erda - store it away to babble another day

12:18 pm

I'll try, musicmom -- some of these words just refuse to stick to me

12:19 pm

good advice mm, you never know when the word will crop up again (and they do).

12:22 pm

okay, I am going to the list... I have a Life too, you know!

12:22 pm

I need an as6 - I have to get off the boat

12:22 pm

I just did for the same reason Stid. 68 words left

12:22 pm

you just defined it, musicmom

12:23 pm

I have 111 left.

12:23 pm

but there are two -- do they mean the same?

12:23 pm

the list just got me the al 8...

12:23 pm

in 6/24 anyone?

12:23 pm

I'll probably go list as soon as s/o goes to work

12:23 pm

in+ what you tie your shoes with

12:24 pm

inlace

12:24 pm

where's 'the list' ?

12:24 pm

stupid me

12:24 pm

sorry

12:24 pm

yep that's it!

12:24 pm

go aknitter go!

12:24 pm

anything i can do to help lol

12:24 pm

redman - use the link to lickety at the bottom

12:24 pm

anyone up to give a little non-Babble advice?

12:25 pm

My advice and 1.00 buys you a cup of coffee but sure

12:25 pm

crap --- sorry --- used a word

12:25 pm

join the club mm

12:26 pm

Whats up Fiz?

12:26 pm

lol - that's kind of how I'm feeling about my own wisdom, MM. I need to get a special gift for my partner, who's celebrating 8 years of sobriety. and I'm CLUELESS

12:26 pm

thanks musicmom -- didn't have it yet and every little bit helps today!

12:26 pm

Fiz...that's awesome...so is mine:)

12:26 pm

What did (s)he replace the alcohol with?

12:27 pm

I mean hobbies, food etc

12:27 pm

TheFiz -- a really nice dinner out?

12:27 pm

caviar and champagne

12:27 pm

ha 8/55 clue please

12:27 pm

hi jeffer!

12:28 pm

pork product+vowel+not early

12:28 pm

wow that is great, and yes a hard thing to buy for.

12:28 pm

ERda - champagne would be a bad idea

12:28 pm

For about 5 years, she poured her heart into this amazing fish tank. Then we moved and she changed jobs and we never set it up in the new house. which gives me a great idea.

12:28 pm

oops -- SO sorry -- beating myself over the head...

12:28 pm

not "mock" champagne:) we do that...and fake beer...and wine...and we're fine:)

12:29 pm

and in case you're wondering (just looked it up) ha 8 means "Furnished with a small hook; hook-shaped"

12:29 pm

Oh didn't think of that daisy

12:29 pm

Is it warm enough in your part of the world for a great picnic, Fiz?

12:29 pm

TheFiz - I would celebrate by setting up the tank

12:29 pm

ty musicmom

12:29 pm

yw

12:30 pm

hello stidmama

12:30 pm

TheFiz -- that sounds like an AWESOME gift!

12:30 pm

I think the fish tank is a great idea too!

12:30 pm

or getting a smaller one or something if that one doesn't work int he new space

12:30 pm

Marine or freshwater, Fiz?

12:30 pm

(chanting) fish, fish, fish -- but NOT fish for dinner that night!

12:31 pm

Freshwater - and I better do some research, goldfish in a bowl are about my level of expertise.

12:31 pm

thanks, all - you're awesome.

12:31 pm

Get to a good aquarium store - they can help select fish that work well together. Tetras are great for starting a tank, as are rasboras - both are hardy and look pretty in schools.

12:32 pm

tetras are nice freshwater fish and they're pretty.

12:32 pm

and make sure you get "other" bits too - snails, weed etc

12:32 pm

TheFiz -- maybe a gift certificate to the fish store that she could pour her energy into since she enjoys that

12:32 pm

brb need to take care of business

12:32 pm

Get a nice book on fishes and a gift certificate!

12:33 pm

3:02 pm

well, i'm out guys & gals. see you on the morrow...

3:08 pm

hey fran - who loves you, baby?

any little hints for su7?

3:10 pm

z - think synonym for "pout" without the last letter, then past tense of "eat"

3:11 pm

su7.... alternate spelling for in a mood + past tense for eat

3:11 pm

su7 - add the word for opposite of early, and insert a c in the appropriate place

3:11 pm

or if you're a real neurodork like me, it's a word to describe the texture of your brain.

3:11 pm

Good evening all - long time no see.have not played for a while.are there problems tonight?

3:11 pm

3:35 pm

ooo Karys... congrats!!!!!!!!!!! :D

3:35 pm

ty...it was very exciting !!!

3:36 pm

i'm supposed to be working quietly in the corner, but keeping one eye on the chat is becoming distracting

3:36 pm

Well done Karys - this wasn't an easy grid!

3:36 pm

I have to try to ignore chat for the last few or I would never finish

3:37 pm

I enjoyed it tho' Haz

3:38 pm

I despaired early on because there were so few runs of words - in contrast to yesterday's grid. But the words were all there after all.

3:38 pm

yesterday's was fun....but todays made me think

3:39 pm

they're there... but they're hiding...

3:39 pm

Next time Lola and Grey are on - tell them I say "HI" - I don't get to play very often anymore.

3:40 pm

I know what you mean, Karys. And now you can give everyone lots of clues!

3:40 pm

the clues today have been half the pleasure....you are all so good atit !!

3:41 pm

I am mostly too slow with giving out clues...but I do luve to try !

3:41 pm

I have 5 of 6 O words... o4, o5, o5, o5, o6, what am I missing?

3:42 pm

an o4 Cadfan

3:42 pm

There's another o4 (or4/4)

3:42 pm

:) Got it, thanks. :)

3:42 pm

Well, you beat me there, Karys!

3:43 pm

I think you were waiting for me !

3:43 pm

No, you beat me fair and square.

3:44 pm

he might have conquered, but he didnt come and he didnt see. No vidi or vini today.

3:45 pm

wow. I didn't realize that when you finish you now get **moving** fireworks ( I thought people were talking about a picture)...I jumped back I was so surprised!

3:45 pm

it was good wasn't it pine ?.....Congrats !!

3:45 pm

But don't forget to add a c to one of the words, Dachef.

3:45 pm

yeah. fun to watch.

3:46 pm

Cheers Haz! But the code doesnt work. Vinci isnt there either!

3:46 pm

er, its veni vidi vici....

move those letters around

dachef

3:47 pm

you are so close...change the last letter of vinci

3:47 pm

LOL dachef

3:47 pm

sherb...thanks. I was sort of hoping nobody would notice.

3:48 pm

thx Mark, pinecone...!!

3:48 pm

by the way, did anyone see the movie?

3:48 pm

not yet...but I would like to (I think )

no not yet

3:48 pm

I noticed as well.....all that Latin at school.

3:48 pm

I noticed as well.....all that Latin at school.

read the book tho

3:49 pm

yes...I read the book...which is why I'm not quite sure I will enjoy the film

3:49 pm

Latin O level... always knew that would come in useful...

3:49 pm

I saw the movie, I'll trade my non-professional opinion for a clue on al8/55 :)

lol

3:50 pm

Latin O level - happy days.

3:50 pm

I haven't seen it yet either...but I read the book. The book was like a film script so I'm sure the movie will be any different from the book

3:50 pm

I love all the religious furore around the book. At what point did Mr Brown say it wasnt FICTION! All that free publicity, I bet hes laughing all the way to the bank.

3:50 pm

I read the book and saw the film. I enjoyed the movie, but since I knew all the twists and turns it wasn't too suspensful...

3:50 pm

it's the metal Hawkeye....just extend

3:50 pm

take your al 6 and add the last two letters of your v word

3:50 pm

the movie is quite different, in a couple ways

3:51 pm

can't get the first to6/21

3:51 pm

yeh, like the Catholic Church in the UK wouldnt let them use Westminster Abbey! Hello! FICTION!!

3:51 pm

oh duh, thanks guys :)

3:51 pm

which was best woodchick ?

3:51 pm

Westminster Abbey or Cathedral?

3:52 pm

I preferred the book, I didn't like how the movie made langdon a skeptic

3:52 pm

the book was WAY better...(I thought)

3:52 pm

to be king is to - - - - - country (to 6 clue)

3:52 pm

to6/ - add what you use to measure with but change the vowel at the end

3:52 pm

thats what I thought might be the case...so I'm not sure about seeing the film

3:53 pm

should be...to be king is to - - - - country (to 6 clue)

3:53 pm

should be...to be king is to - - - - country (to 6 clue)

3:53 pm

Abbey... CoE...

3:53 pm

the movie is a fun little romp, just look at it as a wholly separate animal :)

3:54 pm

I worried about not liking it... but since I'm 3 days past my baby's due date I had to have something to pass the time away... :)

3:54 pm

got to find someone to go with first !

3:54 pm

go down to your local catholic church and put up a flyer

3:54 pm

sherb - forgive my ignorance!

3:54 pm

bet you'll find some movie dates :)

3:54 pm

aaah....woodchick...best of luck....it may be tomorrow !....it may be tonight !!

3:55 pm

thanks everybody!

3:55 pm

thak you hawkeye....:)

3:55 pm

3:55 pm

3:55 pm

3:56 pm

Hi Mari - how are things up the road???? Kati said papa hadn't been well again?????

3:56 pm

sweeping the drive....and cleaning windows woodchick !

3:56 pm

:)

3:57 pm

Is this your first baby, woodchick?

3:57 pm

woodchick, my baby was 6 days past. We set up date for inducing and my water broke that morning..

3:57 pm

she's almost 8 month now

3:57 pm

Hi all - do you think I'll manage 101 words before bedtime! LOL another grid unfinished methinks!

well...i have to head out...im STARVING...i may be back later

3:57 pm

yeah.... I'm not worries. I was 13 days late, myself

3:58 pm

Oh snowyowl - what time are you planning to go to bed?!?

3:58 pm

my first three were all well overdue

3:59 pm

haz, i'm seeing what you mean about this grid, none of the 6s work off of the 5s!

3:59 pm

LLl -I should go early as I'm taking 16 children on their pack hols on Friday but I'll no doubt be seeing the far side of midnight again!

3:59 pm

desperate housewives... bbl...

3:59 pm

It's frustrating, isn't it, FranMag!

3:59 pm

do you know if it's a boy or a girl woodchick ?

4:00 pm

nope. we're waiting...

4:00 pm

Bye sherb!

4:00 pm

4:00 pm

And you Karys!

4:01 pm

Bye sherb & Karys

4:01 pm

good for you, woodchick!

4:02 pm

thanks dino... i have no problem with other people finding out...but it wasn't for us :)

4:02 pm

Here I go again, undeterred by my slowness with this grid.Disconsolate, thoug, about my failure to find the last to6/21. I have the one the king does

4:02 pm

We found out and I dis-believed until she showed up ;)

4:02 pm

The last to 6 - t plus ot5/12

4:03 pm

If it's not one thing it's to6/21

Hetty...I'll trade the to 6/21 I have for the one you need. mine is a hillbilly contraction of what Haz just said.

4:04 pm

does anyone have the ha8/55 word?

4:05 pm

Yes - three letters of a food product from a pig, last vowel and the opposite of early.

4:05 pm

O.K. Haz. got your drift. I must now tell to**** from which.

4:06 pm

tndaisy, I dont understand. What do you want to trade with me?

lol I had one of them, you had the other...or so it seems

so it was a mutual thing

4:08 pm

and are you still asking, Dais? The other is the sing. of to7/2

4:08 pm

does that ha8 word mean to imitate a pig? ;-)

yes ty:)

4:08 pm

I like being mutual with you, daisy

4:08 pm

I would have thought so, FranMag.

4:09 pm

---so lop off the e

4:09 pm

great icon daisy! i loved that show!

4:09 pm

su7, please?

4:10 pm

su - add an l and then Miss Blanchett

4:10 pm

su7 is a chemical term, which I'm no good at cluing--but do as Haz says and you'll have it

4:10 pm

ah, Haz! thanks.

4:10 pm

Hetty - yes, I tend to do as Haz says - and she never leads me wrong!

4:10 pm

You're welcome, Charm.

4:11 pm

Just as well I'm not a wicked cult leader!

4:12 pm

How about just a wicked leader? I tend to like them (wicked women, wicked books, wicked heels)....

4:13 pm

finally finished, I can give clues if necess

4:13 pm

yay phandmd!

4:18 pm

Hi everyone - just started not a hope of finishing. Upgraded at the weekend. I'm now a 'Pro'. Want to see what my profile looks like now. Can anyone help me with the icons?

4:18 pm

Thanks, everyone! Happy babbling. See y'all later.

4:19 pm

yes, please phandmd. i need a th5/16 and the second th6/21 please

4:19 pm

Sorry - had to take a phone cal there. Welcome to pro world Candy! If you go to Angelsong;s resource page, there is information there about using icons

4:20 pm

phandmd, can you help with the ec word?

4:20 pm

candy - try: http://www.iconarchive.com/ - good place to start.

4:21 pm

think of something yummy to eat; drop the last consonant and replace with t

4:21 pm

The second th6/21 differs from the first by one vowel.

4:21 pm

Thanks for the advice I'll try that when I get a minute. Back to the grid - I'll probably be needing clues soon!

4:22 pm

good clue, haz

4:23 pm

4:23 pm

got it, thanks!

4:23 pm

Thanks anders.

4:24 pm

Thanks, Haz. Popped right out at me along with the fish.

6:07 pm

wnet to check on the bee and take pictures

Hurshy, really what about Iowa, I missed it?

6:07 pm

Wow, the closest I've seen to that word is the thing that seals a pencil eraser to the pencil itself.

6:10 pm

ro 8/45 anyone?

6:10 pm

marc - the iowa quote was from star trek IV, it was just funny because they were back in time in the 20th century and this lady was realizing that kirk was not quite...quite. and she said, let me guess, you're from outer space. and he said, no, i'm from iowa, i only work in outer space.

Hurshy, still missed the whole Iowa thing, I'm interested.

6:10 pm

"Let's go eat sushi and not pay."

6:14 pm

daisy, now help me with ro8/45

ty Fran! will copy this to notepad and digest it properly

Fran..that chemical in is 6/27

6:15 pm

I'm new what do you guys mean when you say in6/24 and stuff like that

6:16 pm

first two letters of the word, plus the number of letters in the word, plus the point value

6:16 pm

reese, in is the first part of the word, it has 6 letters and it's worth 24 points

6:16 pm

wassup, i thought we were quoting silly lines from movies. that one's from repo man

6:16 pm

I'm new here what do you mean you say in6/24 and stuff like that

6:17 pm

daisy, which one did you need?

6:17 pm

Welcome Reese's. Be careful. It's addicting.

6:17 pm

oh 6/24! that one is in+go fast

in 6/24

6:17 pm

its good advice

6:17 pm

here's another bit of movie fun: when they were making clueless, alicia silverstone was only 17. they hadn't told her to say "hate-ee-ans" instead of "hay-shens" (haitians), she just thought that was how you say it. it fit so perfectly with the character that they didn't tell her the correct pronunciation until later for fear she'd be embarrassed and want to change it.

6:18 pm

That explains a lot, hurshy!

6:18 pm

that's awesome. i love that movie.

6:19 pm

sarah i just looked at your icon up close and it made me laugh out loud. my boss is probably like "hmmm..."

6:19 pm

6:20 pm

see ya firefly

6:20 pm

it made me laugh out loud too. that's funny. i can picture you sitting at your desk sneaking babble and doing the church laugh. i had a major case of that on easter

6:20 pm

was I right Luwanda?

6:20 pm

that's why she pronounces her name a-lee-see-uh

6:20 pm

luwanda - that could be anything but for me it's marcia brady!

6:20 pm

7:22 pm

wait, do you have the powder you put on a baby's bottom?

7:22 pm

it's a 4/5, but you didn't mention it

7:22 pm

I see from the word list that I've mistaken the value of the word I'm missing--it must be a 4/5

7:22 pm

hi everyone, had to get the kids fed, still stuck on to6/21 and it's plural 7/32. tried googling yeast-like fungus, but there are an awful lot of them

7:22 pm

aha!

7:23 pm

fran, make it sound like another word for dad (more formal)

7:23 pm

No, IDONT have the baby's bottom. Oh nkrii, if you WERE here I'd hug younto pieces. Thanks everyone. My panic for today is over.

7:24 pm

oh but I can't make a plural out of that one fran, so maybe there's another?!

7:25 pm

franmag, the to6/21 is the sing.of the to/7--just lop off the "e"

7:25 pm

i'm missing the first to6/21, i have the one you mentioned

7:25 pm

evenin babblers!

7:25 pm

fran - to + ru 4/5 change the last vowel

7:25 pm

thanks hetty, don't have the plural yet

7:26 pm

it's the second ru 4/5

hi everyone

7:27 pm

ma5/18 anyone

wondering - how are babble puzzles devised daily - random or planned? wondering...

7:27 pm

If you dont have the to7/32, then after to use the word to govern (as king) minus its "e" and add a (tra-la-)**and a second vowel

7:28 pm

I'm told the grids are quite random. Th couldn't be planned to be as frustrating as they are.

7:28 pm

yay, finally got it!! thanks everyone that helped.

7:29 pm

oh, that was my last word, i'm done!!

7:29 pm

what's the last to 6/21?

if the grids were made randomly; how were total number of words calculated - was it automated or figured out manually?

7:29 pm

ls1, it's T+not this one, the o****

7:30 pm

I thought that the grids were made w/ a random selection of a computer

7:30 pm

thanks!

7:31 pm

and that then the computer could calculate words, points, etc.? :]

7:31 pm

they may be random, but it's strange that we had two yeast-like fungi on one grid, isn't it?

so, the grids were made automatically and word counts verified by the Enable dictionary?

7:32 pm

hmmm...

7:33 pm

I don't know if the Enable dictionary is the source??

7:34 pm

Fran, YAYAYAY!!!!!!!!

7:34 pm

still 72 left to find, but calling it quits, see you all tomorrow

7:34 pm

of verification, that is

7:34 pm

75 left for me. Never give up! Never surrender!

7:35 pm

hi everyone. Back for my before sleep babble session. Does anyone have a clue for the al8/55?

god. is this puzzle bizarre or is it me?

7:37 pm

Found it myself!!! Funny how often that happens.

7:37 pm

this puzzle seems to have no "flow" to me...

7:37 pm

liberabel, exactly

7:37 pm

how about the ae7/28?

7:37 pm

not too rich in derivatives

7:38 pm

it's just 150 disconnected words, plus another 40 or so that are loosely connected to a handful of those

7:39 pm

eva, add the opposite of stood to the ae4/4

7:39 pm

thanks fran!

7:40 pm

brb, i have to deal with fe5/18 matter in a diaper!

7:41 pm

7:45 pm

nrkii, same beginning, but add an L and the ending that means one who does

7:46 pm

fran, for the AS?

7:46 pm

yes nrkii

7:47 pm

same beginning as the other as6/21

7:47 pm

for al6/21 (the other one): take the metal airplanes are made of, drop the last 3 letters. My jaw dropped when I got it...

7:47 pm

fran, had to reread your clue, I was being dense, ty

7:47 pm

Then, to the word you got, add the ic ending

7:48 pm

no prob nrkii, just noticed you did get fish for your icon, it's a little dark on the small icon, can't see the detail

7:49 pm

abe vigoda all the way - he was my favorite when I was a kid!

7:49 pm

so delightfully cranky!

7:49 pm

am6/24-I have the talisman....any clues for the other one? speaking of that, did anyone else read the whole Five Children and It series

this is embarrassing - got 142 to go and am experiencing a babbling block - wish this grid can also be done in American Sign Language (a native language of mine, sigh)

7:50 pm

bgood, it's a really rough grid, just ask for clues

7:50 pm

eva, I read the first 2 of the 5 children and it series if I recall

7:50 pm

eva, do you have the 6/27?

7:50 pm

Nite all bed calls as it is nearly 2am

7:52 pm

hi babblers

7:52 pm

7:52 pm

hi abe!

7:53 pm

8:05 pm

lol daisy, sometimes i feel like that!!

in fact, when my mom lost her hair from chemo, my dad would affectionately call her kojak - it sounds mean, but if you knew my parents, you would have thought it was darling

8:06 pm

I would have flushed mine when she was little, but we had a septic tank and I figured I'd get found out eventually! lol she turns 16 tomorrow...*sigh*

8:06 pm

9:35 pm

I'm refreshing to see if I can get my list back

9:35 pm

MM, had a co-worker that had that too

9:36 pm

the stats show you the number of words for each tile and the position the tile has in the grid

9:36 pm

shirin, they correspond to each box in the grid above it

9:36 pm

today's seems much harder than usual, for some reason

9:36 pm

words start from different tiles

9:36 pm

Is to make a thr*** right before the drive thr*?

9:37 pm

featherbee, i watched house last night, i know what you mean about the gory stuff!

9:37 pm

oh, I see. So that makes it easier to know where to start

9:37 pm

Bash~ none of us would ever type a word in the log!! :-P

10:13 pm

LOL!!!

10:14 pm

It would have been a word in other grids, had you added an 'a' at the end. However, try another consonant about 4 letters back.... meaning 'true'.

10:16 pm

thx. If I do it again, slap me with the fish. :)

10:16 pm

Oh, sorry! Further bacxk than that.

10:17 pm
