Lol, I know, that HURTS!

12:35 am

i'm stuck at 145, so i'm going to change my icon & maybe come back with fresh eyes

12:35 am

you'd think they'd make something to go around the babies teeth so they don't hurt mom...and can nuse longer.

12:36 am

wow..145? that's nice. I'm surprised I got to 110...but I htink I'm going to call it anight.

12:37 am

Ah, nice Sw8/60!

hi orinth, i'm new, can you tell me what list you're talking about? weird words?? i'm still missing 185 :(

1:51 am

ornith, rather. sorry

1:52 am

leanne, if you look down under the stats, there are links - one says lickety's babble clues

1:52 am

it'll have clues like an6/18... a word that starts with an, has 6 letters, and is worth 18 points

1:53 am

(4-letter words are worth the points on the tiles, 5-letters x2, 6-letters x3, and so forth)

1:53 am

thanks ornith, i could use the help :)

1:54 am

np. knowing that way of referring to words makes it easier to ask for clues, too :)

1:55 am

is that clue site automatically generated or what?

1:55 am

I think it must be, he has it up within like half an hour of the flip

1:55 am

obviously, i guess. never mind

1:55 am

thanks

Morning all!

1:56 am

morning matty

1:56 am

morning matty :)

1:56 am

ornith how many 8s have you got?

1:57 am

I think 4 right now

1:58 am

both ce's, which are plurals on fairly weird words that start with ce4/5...

1:59 am

the in, which is built of the in6/18 which is built of a to4/4...

1:59 am

and the sw, which is built off the sw5/18

2:00 am

ty

2:00 am

yw

Those ce clues are doing my head in - I have a ce 4/5 - but...

2:04 am

they're uncommon words; one is a plural spanish coin, and the other is...um...

Is the ce 4/5 another type of coin, or is there another?

2:05 am

a plural of a unit of weight used in Eastern Europe.

2:05 am

the ce4/5 I'm referring to is a coin (or the amount one is worth)

2:05 am

and yes, it's the only one

OK, got the spanish coin...

2:08 am

I think I got the other one by monkeytyping everything that looked like a word. sounds like it might be a person.

Ta - got those now, Ornith. BTW, is your username from the Dragonriders of Pern?

2:09 am

clue for in 6?

2:09 am

Nope, it's short for ornithopter

Oh. Silly me ;)

2:10 am

Nah, I know why you thought so :P

2:11 am

which in6, preethi?

2:12 am

i got the in6 which rhymes with the c8

2:12 am

how many in 6 's are there in teh grid?

2:12 am

that may be the other one. there's an in6/21 and an in6/18

2:13 am

clues for that?

2:13 am

I have the 6/18 but not the 6/21, is what I mean about "other one", sorry.

2:14 am

in6/18 is "to chant", or in + to4/4. 6/21, if you have a clue, give me one! :P

2:14 am

the in6/21 has to do with walking...

2:15 am

got it, thanks

2:15 am

preethi, did you get it?

2:15 am

great orinth :)

2:16 am

2:21 am

hehe, great nonword jaiel

2:21 am

(it won't take woot either btw)

2:21 am

we all do it.

2:21 am

he he sorry, hand-eye coordination is not so great this morn

2:22 am

I agree, that would be a great word Jaiel!

2:22 am

yep, tried woot already ;)

2:22 am

"womp", very onomatopoetic :D

2:23 am

tried that one too kitty! you never know here..))

2:24 am

I know, typing in words that could never be real does pay off at times

2:24 am

shoom either :/

2:24 am

at least my vocabulary grows a bit when the monkey typing pays off ;)

2:24 am

at least my vocabulary grows a bit when the monkey typing pays off ;)

2:25 am

and yeah, I get a lot of words that I think are foreign or bound prefixes or just plain silly

2:25 am

shoom is the romanization for the hebrew word for garlic

2:25 am

I hate when I monkeytype something, look it up, and it has no definition though!

2:25 am

I still remember "chad" from one of first goes at Babbling

2:25 am

heh. I think of shoom as a noise.

2:25 am

sort of like woosh

2:26 am

sounds like it orinth

I HATE words that begin with vowels.

2:26 am

took me ages t get that and now that I know what it means (the little bits of card/paper that come from punching holes) I've actually been using it in real life

2:26 am

I used to not know that word, before a certain election.

2:26 am

and yeah, matty, the vowel ones are hard.

2:27 am

there's a naughty ar4, if that helps.

Got that one - first vowel word I got, surprise surprise!

2:27 am

lol

2:27 am

I've gotten a few O words

2:28 am

got that one first too!

2:28 am

learned form yesterday not to look for odd ones first but to start with easy ones

2:28 am

yeah, I have some of the o's today.

2:28 am

how many words today pls ?

2:32 am

Hello Deutsch!

2:32 am

ciao Deutsch

2:33 am

Hi Matty, Kitty and star1!

an 7/28 anyone (both of them!_)

2:36 am

those I don't have either - best I have is the 6/21

Don't even have that one yet...

2:37 am

I just have a 7/44

2:37 am

an 7's? *groans* no clue

2:37 am

an6/21 is a fancy word for alienation or social instability

2:38 am

kitty, a 7/44? not an an7/44, I hope? there's none on the list...

2:38 am

an7 = an4/4 + comparative ending

2:38 am

gm, btw LOL

2:38 am

it's a sw

2:39 am

kateq, I don't think I have that an4/4

2:39 am

the other an 7 is the plural of an 6/18 --to bless with oil in church

Small bug

2:39 am

an4/4 = little critters at picnics

2:40 am

is mr p on

2:40 am

that's not the 4/4 with the ending, is it, kateq?

2:41 am

haven't seen him egm

2:41 am

yes it is Ornith

2:41 am

oh, right, a *7*. got it now. ty.

3:32 am

Haz have you got decent weather for the RDA today? do they ride indoors or out? Hi Preethi

3:33 am

The sun is shining today - so far. We have both indoor and outdoor arenas so they'll probably ride outside today.

Still struggling with the ar/6

3:34 am

Oh thats great there is the choice, bit dank here but clearning up. I must be off shortly as have banking and things to do, but sure to see you later :)

3:34 am

3:35 am

3:37 am

3:43 am

Oh Ata, this one is easy! Really! Words are coming faster than you can type them, I promise.

3:44 am

yay! morning all :)

3:45 am

Out of respect for my keyboard, I'm typing a little slower than sprite....

3:45 am

I'm sulking about the lack of woot :)

3:46 am

me too! And I want so much wootsier. Anything with that ending would be nice. So promising...

3:46 am

me too!

3:47 am

wootsier? *giggles* what a fantastic word!

3:47 am

Has a great sound, doesn't it :)

3:48 am

Okay at a 120. I'm out for now. Bye all!

That's almost halfway ;)

3:49 am

Yeah but I'm having trouble now.

3:50 am

I just used that ending!

3:50 am

3:51 am

3:51 am

I should be off as well - have a good day and I'll be back later.

3:52 am

3:52 am

There's a curious one, a stocking one and a horticultural one (the ier ending) and perhaps more! Maybe find more later. Byeeeeee!

Crikey - ANOTHER ce 8/45 - I have one of them - the one like a small American coin and an expression of disdain (sorta like nah nah nah naaah nah)...what about the other?

4:00 am

Greetings, all!!!!!

4:04 am

Matty--each of the ce 8's begins with the small coin and one is a coin--plural, one is a meausure, plural and one is a new work to me combines ce 4/5 with on4/4

4:05 am

new word (excuse typos)

4:40 am

Matty--the se 7/32 is nearly identical to the ce 7/32

4:41 am

Good morning all

hey everyone!!

4:42 am

a very quiet log-it was broken there for a while

I am suck on 40 words!! Can people please give some clues??

4:44 am

p&m-some nice an's having to do with ritual oiling

Thanks for the ce words, guys!

Sorry - just one ce word left - I got 149 words left all together!

4:59 am

5:01 am

251 today, lectrice

Hi trishtrash!! P&M, you guys are going much better!

5:02 am

Hey MrP :) How are you and yours today?

Hey trish,,, not too shabby! Hope all is good with you!?

5:04 am

yup, more or less... sun is finally shining (still cold, though, I can't believe I have the heating on in late May!)

hmmm, global trauma with the weather I thinketh! freezing my little ones off here too!

5:05 am

*shares blankets and hot tea around*

aahhh! nice and warm now!

5:06 am

good morning trish & mrp! All I can say about our weather is that at the moment it isn't raining. That's newsworthy. And I'm planning to set out the tomatoe and pepper and basil plants today. Just can't wait any loner. Will probably snow tomorrow if I do that.

It's the last 6/21 I need - the one before the plural of 1/100th of a dollar

Morning Eva! well, you could make a nice hungarian lecho with those plants! and I believe the recipe accepts snow!

5:08 am

what's hungarian lecho?(you knew I'd ask)

5:09 am

morning Eva!

5:09 am

matty, insert a vowel as 5th letter

Got it.

Oh, that is something my dad makes as a side dish... tomatoes and capsicum (peppers)... full of paprika too! very tasty with goulash and potatoes!

5:10 am

hi mrp is that alrite if i call u mr p

or as my kids like to say ghoul-ash! they think it tasts like grave stew!

5:11 am

sounds good. I love pesto, so plant a lot of basil. Use pesto all year then on just about everything except dessert. Doesn't go well with chocolate.

Hi egm, mr p is what I get!

5:11 am

Hi all! How's it look today?

5:12 am

i started a new thing and now ive got 16 words

5:12 am

5:12 am

whats this new thing egm?

5:13 am

hi amandacath... I seem to have ground to a halt with 90 to get... I'm with eva, too early for the lists.

5:13 am

And it seems that since I have a dial up connection scrolling through the earlier log entries is not passible for me anymore.

5:13 am

the new word list babble thing

amanda! 251 and not too bad.

5:14 am

mrp-with all due respect, it's never too bad for you(-:

Eva, I use the word list like I use toilet paper.... plenty!!

5:17 am

2 "ers" it won't accept which are really annoying me-the first is the bare a____ one...streakers are mo_____ indeed, and the second is a no____, or a term for a quickie in a motel in the middle of the day

5:18 am

10 mins, 46 words - oooo, I hate it when that streaker word is in there and it won't take. That's happened quite a few times!

5:19 am

i need help!!

5:19 am

you're not the only one egm!

5:20 am

ive only got 16 words

5:20 am

egm-just relax and take it slowly, letter by letter. And there are good clues in the chat log

6:13 am

Moring alien

6:14 am

6:14 am

Alien, big but very pleasant! Not like yesterday's.

egm, she comes on in the afternoon, after school

6:15 am

yes, it looks nicer. : )

6:17 am

It's got to be a good grid - it's got m4/10!

6:17 am

movieman, what was the name of the band that Paul Weller fronted, my brain has gone blank.

6:17 am

Paul Weller is a singer/songwriter in the UK. Was in a Mod band called The Jam

Well blow me down! Looks like Australia is going to win against Greece in the soccer! Go AUSSIE Go !

6:17 am

hahaha I had to think twice to remember

6:18 am

*blows mrP down*

6:18 am

Thank you moozey I was thinking The Clash, The Jam and others but couldn't decide.

6:18 am

Paul Weller is the ex lead singer of British punk band The Jam, now a rather successful solo artist....

6:18 am

Surely they were Mods?

I love the Clash!

6:19 am

rings a distant bell, Mr. Weller does, and I think I vaguely remember The Jam...

6:19 am

He was also in the Style Council.......

6:19 am

He was also in the Style Council.......

6:19 am

He was also in the Style Council.......

6:19 am

the jam was an imitation of the who, without the fire. the clash was the real thing

6:20 am

Where did you say he was?

6:20 am

The Jam an imitation of The Who? No way.

They were so original!! No one had it over the Clash. Even their music videos cranked!

6:20 am

He was also in The Style Council......

6:21 am

im bored

6:22 am

hello everybody!

6:23 am

Hi aleksia

hello aleksia

6:23 am

hello

6:24 am

Sorry I posted the same message multiple times, but I kept losing the connection....

6:25 am

Is it better now, movieman? So irritating when you want to play :(

6:25 am

Back again to continue the hunt.

6:26 am

All the gangs here now Haz

ah, and the exchange of *pleasantries* continues as they win win win! Yay Australia! They have beaten the former world champions and now the european champions!!

6:27 am

Good!

6:27 am

sprite - yep, I'm back and raring to go.....

6:27 am

Did you finish while I was away, FMitch or are you still on the lookout?

6:27 am

Welcome back, movie ;)

6:27 am

3 ce8s??

6:27 am

Mornin' Haz!

6:27 am

Good morning amandacath - are you well?

6:27 am

Grace: yes, and all start the same.

6:27 am

No haven't finished yet, down to 77 to find but been chatting so only found 3 words in the last 1/2 hour.

6:28 am

grrr...

6:29 am

hihi

6:29 am

Hi Haz - just fine, other than the gray weather, thanks. I've hit a wall at 166 and was just about to ask what else there was to look for when Grace came in with the 3 c8's *goes hunting for big c words*

I gotta go sleepy bye! happy hunting everyone! BYE (waving)!!

6:29 am

Sleep well, mrP :)

6:29 am

Bye MrP sleep well

6:30 am

Nitey nite, MrP

6:30 am

Ah well, FMitch ,I've even more to find than you, so better get to it. By the way, any opinion on Geri Halliwell's choice of names for her baby - Bluebell Madonna?

6:30 am

Heavy stuff for a little one.

6:30 am

Oh good lord! I'm all for original names, but Bluebell?

*puke* err, I mean how delightfully original!

6:30 am

actually I dont think Bluebell's toooo bad - at least its seasonal. but madonna?

6:30 am

Now to listen to some of Mr. Weller's finest tunes.....

6:31 am

I think the combination is er.... well... I believe someone rescued us with 'original'.

6:31 am

"unique", "interesting"

6:32 am

Her explanation for Madonna was that the child emerged screaming as though saying 'Hello Wembley!'

6:32 am

Well at least it's not FifI Trixielulabel or what ever Paula Yates caller hers. She could be called Bel for short but the whole moniker with Halliwell at the end urgh!

6:32 am

"distasteful", "sucking up"

6:33 am

oh my ... "interesting" explanation

6:33 am

That's right, that's right, good words for it :)

6:33 am

Yes, the combination of Bluebell Halliwell isn't great, but it's her choice...

6:34 am

"copycat" - I think the Yates one is Tigerlily

6:34 am

In 18 years Bluebell will declare: "I prefer Mary."

6:34 am

Heavenly Hiraani Tigerlily to be precise....

6:34 am

fifi trixabelle, peaches, and heavenly hirani tigerlily

6:34 am

Some parents are criminals.

6:34 am

actually in 18 years she could go Hi my name is Mark!!

6:35 am

I would not blame her, FMitch

6:35 am

Why do our brains insist on storing such garbage?

6:36 am

imagine if we could as easliy recall all the "imortant" stuff what our exam results would be like!

6:36 am

My husband can't believe the things I remember. Not useful things like how to wire a plug, but stupid names and who wrote what.

6:36 am

sometimes i come on this site, not to play, just to read the chatterbox........

6:36 am

the Yates kids live near me - and actually, they are nice kids

6:37 am

Oh, I'll bet he's got his share of garbage in the old gray matter too, Haz!

6:37 am

All this talk of unusual names for children reminds me of the time when a couple had a child who was jaundiced, so they called her La-La after the yellow Tellytubby.....

6:37 am

And the meaning and existence of 'ywis', 'anoa', 'pfui', don't forget that knowledge!

6:37 am

tine

6:37 am

Hi spanner

6:37 am

He's hopeless with names, amanda - he even calls me by his sister's name sometimes - She's Helen, I'm Hazel!

6:38 am

Hi FMitch

6:38 am

Are you serious movieman?

6:38 am

La-La? Like I said, criminal.

6:38 am

Yep, it happened a few years ago......

6:39 am

Hope you enjoy, Spanner. In Germany you have to have kids' names approved by some office. I have my problems with that, but it does prevent things like MM is talking about

6:39 am

I'm not sure if it still happens, but the French government used to have a list of approved names. You couldn't deviate from the list. Seems like a good idea to me!

6:39 am

At least the didn't call the poor mite Po!!!

6:39 am

I can't believe my name is in today's grid......

6:40 am

So is my son's name, movie :)

6:40 am

shouldn't hoosier be a word?

6:40 am

Guessing time again! Tim, Jonas?

6:40 am

Where are you the global community spanner?

6:40 am

Mine is quite common......

6:41 am

should be, Grace - guess it's one that Enable capitalizes, or simply doesn't recognize

6:41 am

England

6:41 am

j4/10 perhaps MM

6:41 am

My son is Tim.

6:41 am

tom? j***?

6:42 am

MM -is it one we can't say because it's an accepted word?

6:42 am

jonas too

6:42 am

My name is also US slang for a toilet.....

6:42 am

lol movie... it is valid in the grid too!

6:42 am

US slang for prostitute's customer

6:42 am

Yeah, fireworks :) Nice to have them back.

6:42 am

shane... like the cowboy!

6:43 am

Go Sprite! I tried that one too, Grace

6:43 am

6:47 am

6:47 am

7:07 am

I swear that babble can't cope as well as it used to with the fast typing of words. I've just spent ages looking for an so4 and realised it was one of the words I found when I first stated this morning and I KNOW I entered it!!!

7:07 am

how many words are there today

7:08 am

251 words today

7:08 am

thx fmitch

7:09 am

I've had that problem too, Mitch. Annoying, isn't it? What's the second je - I've got the israelites

7:09 am

Greetings, all... how goes the grid today?

7:09 am

Hi Jera - big, but not too bad

7:09 am

I've had that happen as well, FMitch.

7:10 am

Hey Jera!!! It's a good one today. How are you feeling?

7:10 am

I haven't experienced that but hey - there's a first time for everything, as I proved this morning.... Or maybe I'm just a slow typist.

7:10 am

Still very tired, beginning to suspect some sort of infection, ugh. Gonna call the doctor today.

7:11 am

nvm - found it

7:11 am

When my nails are getting too long I find I often add a ' at the edn of a word, which the puzzle of course doesn't recongnize

7:11 am

Time for lunch!

7:11 am

Oh sorry to hear that, fingers crossed for speedy recovery.

7:11 am

Morning all! Ya know, I think we would all appreciate a slightly smaller grid sometime soon. :)

7:11 am

clue for je a monetary unit of south korea

7:11 am

I keep having problems..... I keep getting something appearing on my taskbar saying connecting aol, and I have to wait a minute or so before I can get rid of it.....

7:12 am

{{JEN}}

7:12 am

josh

7:13 am

{{Jera}} glad to hear you are going to the doc! You really need to get this thing cleared up!

7:14 am

Yeah a flu-ey virus thing I can handle since the docs can't really do anything about it... but infections are not to be messed with (especially for me).

7:14 am

morning, babblers|

7:14 am

I keep having problems..... I keep getting something appearing on my taskbar saying connecting aol, and I have to wait a minute or so before I can get rid of it.....

7:14 am

I need to at least get well enough to take my car in to get it fixed!

7:15 am

Moviman, I am completely aol-ignorant, so all I can offer you is my sympathy...

7:15 am

does anyone have a clue for the first an? I have what I think it the first an, but I'm not sure.

7:15 am

I have no an's yet, Angelsong!

These en words are gonna be the death of me!

Sounds a bit like the proper name for the back passage (not the slang term)

7:16 am

I hope you get good news Jera (like it's not an infection). :)

7:16 am

Angel - the 1st an is a4/4

7:17 am

Hi Angel!

7:17 am

clue for an its to put a stake into the put before your play poker

7:17 am

Angel - There's an AN that means to apply fragrent oils to something ......

7:17 am

Actually, it not being an infection would be quite worrisome... I hope that's all it is. Some antibiotics & I'm good to go. Not an infection would open a whole world of nasty possibilities...

7:17 am

FMitch: the one I have is an + a vowel + plural letter.

7:18 am

yup that is the 1st one

7:18 am

also iif you play poker you need to an** up

7:19 am

Angel - didja get my clue?

7:19 am

Well, good luck. :)

en 7 words anyone?

7:19 am

and movieman's word is plural as well

7:19 am

I'm still at the lovely stage of scanning the grid & words leap out at me... plus all the clues make it even fatser... ;>

7:20 am

But then I only have 106 words so far...

7:20 am

Dr. God -- "IMPUNE" is a perfectly good word.

7:21 am

its impugn isn't it?

7:21 am

does anyone know how many words this puzzle has today?

7:22 am

251

7:22 am

It is, Ata. en7 - unites, to trap 251 words

7:22 am

thanks alot

7:22 am

impune

7:23 am

actually, it's not unite, but it sounds like it: to direct or impose with authority and emphasis

7:23 am

Sorry, impune is latin, but i known je4/9 ain't English!

7:24 am

For English use it's almost always an adjective(?)... impunity.

7:24 am

I have resigned myself that Enable is completely arbitrary in what it sees as English and in what it capitalizes

7:24 am

true

7:25 am

I would love to meet the Enable TPTB... that would be a fascinating thing...

7:25 am

TPTB?

7:26 am

The Powers That Be... nameles ones in charge...

7:26 am

ah :)

7:26 am

What's TPTB? If it's the person who's responsible for what goes in or stays out, I'd like to meet him or her to w5/24 him or her over the head!

7:26 am

I believe the Latin term is impunis. Impune seems to be acceptable, and means unpunished.

7:27 am

Oh well, not acceptable to the Enable gods... so we must bow to their arbitrary will...

7:27 am

Grrr. I still think FLOO should be acceptable, and that was ages ago...

7:28 am

Only half-serious on that one. ;)

7:28 am

yeah - hasnt enable read Harry Potter???!!!!

7:29 am

Moosier is so a word!!

7:29 am

I want to put moonpie in....too bad.

7:30 am

and monster.

7:30 am

Yes, I've typed monster more than once...

7:30 am

and joice. if you can rejoice, surely you can joice? lol

7:31 am

I agree, Atalante, the English language is so weird.....

7:31 am

impugn (verb): from Middle English impugnen, from Old French impugner, from Latin impugnare - to attack as false or questionable impunity (noun): Latin impunitus, from impune, without punishment - exemption from punishment, penalty, or harm

7:33 am

Linguistics lesson for the day - another English combo that makes no sense whatsoever. Verb means to blame, noun means free from blame - go figger

7:33 am

Another great word... wonder if Enable would accept that one?

7:34 am

I wish no one had mentioned monster, I can't see anything else now

7:34 am

Which one Jera, figger? I always think it looks like a bad word when written out

7:36 am

No, impugn

7:36 am

Sorry, Katie...

7:37 am

impugn *should* be acceptable! its in dictionary.com anyway

7:37 am

don't worry about it Jera, it reflects my concentration levels. Eating an M&S trifle whilst sitting in an empty office, life could be worse :)

7:38 am

Here are some more phantom words to clear your mental palate... moist... noise... mosh... is that better?

7:39 am

time is my latest obsession

7:39 am

or timeout

7:40 am

I keep trying for motion

7:41 am

I just typed it now :)

7:41 am

and notion

I keep trying notion. I hat en words.

7:41 am

i think i've enter shoot about 4 times

7:41 am

I've tried homie a dozen tomes, won't take

7:42 am

I keep seeing erase....

7:42 am

and mention - are there ANY that end in -tion?

7:43 am

Someone made a lovely point the other day (can't remember who it was) - Imagine if we got a point deducted for every non word or repeated word we typed in!!

7:43 am

haha now that you said that i keep wanting to enter petition

7:43 am

Yeah, homie should be a word...

7:44 am

Horrible thought, Mitch! Bet my score would average out to 0!

7:44 am

Fmitch - I would constantly be in the negative

7:44 am

I would certainly check my list more often...

And nearly etui (my favourite word)

7:45 am

I don't think I would be addicted, either...

7:45 am

piet

7:45 am

sorry - not a word anyway

7:45 am

Yup me too KatieW

7:45 am

Can someone tell me why I actually started this blasted thing? :)

7:46 am

Because you are addicted, Jen... oh & the camaraderie, of course...

7:46 am

who cares about points anyway :)

7:47 am

what?!? - no commaraderie if you have less points?

7:47 am

Gonna take a break...... Be back later.......

7:48 am

8:52 am

what's the os6/24? I can't find anything that adds up! jbp - 2 of the en's pluralize

8:53 am

font - pu6/30 and it's also used in the bath (it floats in water).

8:53 am

nvm - found it. It's an element, I suppose

8:54 am

its a hole, amanda :)

fmitch -- yep.

8:55 am

THANKS AMANDA

8:55 am

Weeelllll, it *sounds* like an element....

8:56 am

you're quite welcome - they drove me crazy too, those en's

8:57 am

ok, clearly I am losing it... I just went to get coffee and now I only have 4 ens... becuase I think that e + other letters somehow equals en...

8:57 am

I have en+come together &plural, en + trap, and lure/tempt

8:57 am

so clearly I mmissing a sing & plural of something... can someone tell me which en it comes off of, or rhyme it with something?

8:58 am

Your words are disappearing into an os6/24! The other en is another word for plenty + it's plural (although I don'Tquite see how that can exist)

8:58 am

hi all - jbp - i'm missing the same ones. and now i'm afraid to get coffee!

8:59 am

i don't think it's the coffee, somehow

9:04 am

4 letter old english word for plenty, sufficient.

9:05 am

and pl, of course.

9:06 am

I don't get the come together clue?

9:07 am

Hi Hursh!

9:07 am

hello.

Hiya!

9:09 am

remis is so a word!

9:09 am

9:10 am

9:11 am

amanda, do you mean remise?

9:12 am

amanda is correct, its a draw in chess

9:13 am

10:21 am

Morning, everybody. Massive grid today.

10:24 am

ty hurshy

10:24 am

Hi all!!!

10:24 am

Hi Schroeder!

10:24 am

hiya schroeder

10:24 am

Hi Kaetchen! I'm missing an sh5-6 combo - got what children should do with their toys, and that with another letter - can't seem to see another one ...?

10:25 am

Yo Schroeder

10:25 am

Hi Kaetchen & Bex & amanda!!

10:25 am

amandacath - sounds like a sheep post-shearing - with the first vowel instead of the 4th.

10:26 am

rhymes with a spun fiber with which one might knit or crochet

10:27 am

that's the other one I've already got - what is that anyway *goes to look up word*

10:27 am

ok - try what you do to a fly - then add a totally random consonant on the end.

10:27 am

*and finds it isn't in the dictionary*

10:28 am

Hi! How many words today?

10:29 am

Hi Liz...251

10:29 am

groan! Thanks Schroeder

10:31 am

it is a much better grid than yestreday liz!!!! even though it's bigger.

10:31 am

hmmm - finally found it in urbandictionary.com, if it's to be trusted, then it's a bad word, synonym with a4/4

10:31 am

ok...I'm not very good at this

10:32 am

amanda where does this other combo fall?

10:32 am

FMitch is right Liz!!! Jump on in..

10:32 am

hmm I thought nooner was a good word! LOL

10:33 am

Ouch, amandacath - and who is that poor girl?

10:35 am

so, back to my missing sh5-6 combo: I've got the stock in a company + pl and the a4/4 synonym + pl. - no wait! my bad, had mischecked my list. I'm only missing the first sh6/21 - after the ruler, before the stock Yeah, that's what I said, Fiz!

10:36 am

and having typed all that, I found it immediately - duh!

10:36 am

you go, girl (i assume)

amanda, I just had the exact same experience!

10:39 am

It happens fairly often, but I generally try to double and triple check my list before I go bugging everyone for clues

10:39 am

hey amanda - so...clue maybe?

10:40 am

sounds like a tumble-down hut?

10:40 am

... built on ther outer limits of big cities.

Yup - whatchya need?

GTG - see u all later! i need a yoga session - so tressed!

10:46 am

well one of the 8's which i'm hoping might be in combo with a 7? i have 7/36 8/50 spanish sounding words and a ce8/45 with no singular even though it looks plural

LOLOLOL

Namaste, TO. That was certainly an interesting final few minutes.

ce8/45?

10:47 am

like an in7, TO

10:47 am

you need the unit of weight, Hursh - 7/32 + 8/45

10:48 am

10:53 am

i am so confused, if i use the top left 3 i'll have too many points...

10:54 am

10:55 am

Last word - so6/21. Someone please save me from myself

10:56 am

nooner isn't a word? that's too bad...

10:56 am

Ugh! I hated labs - one of the reasons I switched from pharmacy to German in college!

11:00 am

5 sw's

11:00 am

11:02 am

amanda - is the one i gave you the only so6?

11:02 am

there is a sneaky sw that comes at the end of the list that sounds like the 1st sw but change the 4th letter to another vowel

11:02 am

I'm not much the wurst person. Only brats I eat are homemade ones I get from my ex-mom-in-law. I was thinking more along the lines of tuna salad...

11:03 am

3 other fairly easy so's, hursh

11:03 am

THANKS FMitch!!!

11:03 am

oh - only one so6

11:03 am

11:04 am

thanks amanda, then i have those... are there any si? trying to narrow down what i'm missing

11:04 am

hursh -no si today

11:06 am

11:08 am

11:09 am

11:09 am

hoser is never accepted

11:09 am

bob and doug would be so hurt

11:09 am

Yeah, no hosers or mooners allowed, I guess - annoying, isn't it

11:09 am

Whoever doesn't accept hoser has never changed a baby boy's diaper!

11:10 am

LOL Munner

11:10 am

lol, munner!

11:10 am

You hoser

11:10 am

LOL Munner!!! I've been annointed on several occasions!

11:10 am

LOL munner and what a wonderful photo you have as your lcon today.

11:11 am

urf, gotta go shower

11:11 am

First time my son changed his first baby boy's diaper --the child on the right in my picture--and the baby peed on him, he left the baby on the floor and went to take a shower!

11:12 am

Bye hurshy

11:12 am

goosd afternoon everybody:)

11:12 am

He has since become a pro with these two little boys 19 months apart.

11:12 am

Hi jean

11:12 am

ooooooooops I meant good not goosd

11:14 am

They are lovely children Munner

11:15 am

thanks, caitlyn, they are two of my five grandchildren--All, or course, exceptionally cute, smart, and onery!

11:16 am

I have 5 as well and love them all to bits.

11:16 am

Somebody gossip and tell me why Mikey from Berlin left Babble. I've tried to go back to the logs but it shuts my computer down

11:17 am

I have been away so didnt know he had gone

11:17 am

I, too, have been here intermittently, but always enjoyed Mikey's chatter

The last time I saw Mikey, someone unecessarily brought up his sexual orientation. And he was upset about it. That and he was arguing with someone about a comment he made, saying he wasn't trying to be holier-than-thou or anything. I do not know if that's what led to his departure, but to my understanding he never felt well-enough liked to begin with.

It was unfortunate.

11:19 am

He was always fun and seemed popular its a shame!

11:19 am

that's too bad. good, perhaps, that he wasn't here with our earlier troll visit, tho.

11:22 am

I am a newbie to chat logs... now i have seen it reference twice to a 'troll'. Would anyone be kind to clue me in on what one means by that? TY

11:22 am

someone who comes in to cause trouble - insults, curses, inane questions, etc. I'm new (relatively)to chat too but that's what I've picked up.

11:23 am

see earlier posts from "clothes" for example

11:23 am

Ah! that makes sense. Thanks.

11:23 am

trolls are people (generally, teen-age boys, I presume) who ger some sort of perverse pleasure by insulting and annoying complete strangers

11:24 am

are there any rh words?

11:24 am

We have had quite a few horrible trolls since i have been playing we all try to ignore and hope they will go away

11:24 am

occasionally that can be very offensive but that is rare. Best thing is to ignore and not respond to them and the do go away. Occasionally Dr-G has to get involved and will delete them and their comments.

11:24 am

yeah, alien - one

11:25 am

thanks....how many letters please?

11:25 am

Alien 1 rh word

11:25 am

rh4/5

11:25 am

So i put nose to the grindstone and did 102 words since i signed on. How many J's are there?

11:25 am

*note to self - don't chat in "add word" field*

11:26 am

But it's better than the reverse.

11:26 am

11 j's

11:26 am

TY

11:26 am

ty fmitch

11:26 am

11 J words smazing

11:26 am

smazing 2 je and 9jo

11:26 am

good point smazing.

11:26 am

Too bad that someone was mean about Mikey's sexual orientation - unusual for the babble-community, I would think. I do think he sometimes took comments the wrong way, though.

11:26 am

4 more to go then.

amanda-not that they were mean about it. They just outed him to the babble players. Which is no big deal to most of us, but it is private and no one's business.

11:27 am

He was open about it though amandacath

11:28 am

sn 5/12 clue please

11:28 am

that wasn't the problem he made it clear inhis converdaion, his profile and the way he talked. You couldn't read it any other way!

Whoever it was that mentioned it (this was at least two weeks ago and I can't even remember stuff from two days ago, so I'm sorry I'm vague) said it for no reason. Just said it, and Mikey asked what that had to do with the argument at the moment. There really wasn't a reason.

11:29 am

Don't have it jeffer, can't help ya!

11:29 am

funny - i don't feel that it ever comes up for me here. and i'm gay for a living...

11:30 am

... anyway back to babbling and does anyone need more clues?

11:30 am

the sn5/12 sounds a bit like a Guy Ritchie movie with Brad Pitt, or what you do with your teeth

Jeffer - when you shoot someone from a concealed area, usually at a distance.

11:30 am

well, now that you ask. how many 8's and 9's are there. I lost my stats the other day and haven't gone pro, yet.

11:31 am

oh ty leighprefect

11:31 am

you sn.... with your teeth???

11:31 am

I am missing the lower left 2 e's. please help.

11:31 am

good one leigh. i was trying to go the other way.

welcome

11:31 am

6 x 8s 12 x 7 and no 9's for a change.

11:32 am

no - you gn with your teeth. I don't know how to sn, since it's not in the dictionary, but if anyone would like to teach me...?

11:32 am

Gotta a lot to do then. Only go one 7. and 1-8.

11:32 am

Alien, en + exclamation for hurting

11:33 am

thank you. : )

11:33 am

look at the sw's then smazing and you get a nice few words there.

11:33 am

will do. ty

11:33 am

How about the u?

11:34 am

u - at the very top

11:34 am

The SWs are my favourite words today

11:35 am

more frequently you'll se uT**** - just switch the second letter

11:35 am

u + opposite of least

11:36 am

whoops....up + opps. of most

11:36 am

.. and there are 4 good "in" combos with "ink"

11:36 am

thanks, finally saw it.

11:37 am

Alien!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:37 am

Alien said a word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:37 am

thanks for the in clue.

11:38 am

ummm Fiz, how can you be gay for a living? *asks quietly from the corner and doesn't mean to insult anyone so please no one take it wrong*

11:38 am

I need the first and second in (in7/28 and in 6/21) - the ones that have nothing to do with copier ink)

11:39 am

you get paid to talk to kids about being nice to everyone. sorta. and that kinda inures you to insults, so don't sweat it.

11:39 am

in + to5/10

11:39 am

the in6/21 is on your foot, matty

11:39 am

Yeah, I saw that one too, but thought I would not ask. Curious though!

11:39 am

Yes, it is. thanks!

11:39 am

sorry, clue for wrong in

11:40 am

Now just the in7/28

11:40 am

matty in7/28 in +sn5/10

11:40 am

in + s5/10

11:41 am

Well, that's a pretty nice way to earn a living, I guess. I was actually wondering if there was such a thing as drag king shows or something along those lines.

11:41 am

thanks for in clues. I feel like I'm embezzling words from the log!

11:42 am

Thanks - got that now - never heard of it, but got it!

11:42 am

Going to be responsible now and go work on some applications and have breakfast. See you in a while. Have a good day all.

11:42 am

oh, AC, nothing that much fun. homophobia education, HIV prevention, etc. and i don't think many people pay the bills that way.

11:43 am

You're the luckiest person in the Western World if you haven't abused yourself with the book, Fiz - I picked it up literally by mistake (the title's differnt in German) and it wa appalling!

11:48 am

Fab - thanks!

11:49 am

12:12 pm

I havnt seen her today

12:12 pm

me either amanda

12:12 pm

ok i'm back

12:12 pm

i've got them going and i'm ready to find my last bit of wordage

12:12 pm

Nor me amanda

12:14 pm

amanda, my wonderful friend, i have 3 o4's and 2 o5's and one o6 from the center O - what might i be missing

12:14 pm

Oh good - I was hoping I could rag on Dan Brown with you some more. To pick up the convo from earlier - I wouldn't have been 1/2 so annoyed if I hadn't read the story 100 times before in better-written form, and if he hadn't been given so much credit for "discovering" this "big secret" about Mary Magdalen and secret societies and the rest

12:15 pm

lol - it drove me nuts how he kept going back and forth between the plots

12:15 pm

Hi. Can anyone tell me how many words there are today? Just wondering if it behooves me to begin.

12:16 pm

251

12:16 pm

let's see - you're missing 2 o4's, dunno from where

12:16 pm

thanks.

12:16 pm

251 today!!

12:16 pm

hurshy 5 o/4 ..3o/5 and 1 0/6

12:17 pm

no i'm just missing one... ok so it's a 5 then

12:17 pm

i wasn't counting the 2 from the other O amanda :)

12:17 pm

What was also so horrible was that it was written as if he was planning for someone to make it into a TV-Miniseries - every chapter ended on a cliff-hanger, just in time for a commercial!

12:18 pm

exactly. i hate that kind of book.

12:18 pm

And I totally cracked up when he described the guy as looking like Harrison Ford. He so obviously wanted it to be made into a movie with harrison Ford starring.

12:18 pm

My mum is reading it at the moment,I think she is enjoying

12:20 pm

i was kind of surprised at tom hanks for accepting the role.

12:20 pm

Well, it certainly is high-profile.

12:20 pm

yes but he usually has such good taste

12:20 pm

and it's not like he needs to be any higher profile than he is - he's securely A-list.

12:21 pm

True enough. Must be he liked it. Lots of people did!

12:22 pm

Tom Hanks was sooo miscast . . .

12:22 pm

I love him but he was not good in this movie

12:22 pm

But the one thing I just can't get over, is WHAT THE HECK IS WITH HIS HAIR???

12:22 pm

movie . . . er, travelogue

12:22 pm

done!

12:23 pm

congrats!

12:23 pm

i know, UGH, his hair is so icky that way, he looks pervy or something

12:23 pm

Congrats, Angel!

12:23 pm

I think i will wait to see the film!! yeah for Angelsong

12:23 pm

maybe they thought it looked "professorial"

12:23 pm

Yes, he looks like he only became a professor so he could sleep with students.

12:23 pm

i am not getting my words this way.. :)

12:23 pm

evening all

12:23 pm

hey, sha

12:24 pm

Oh, wait, I'm supposed to be finding words?

12:24 pm

anyone else really want ointment to be there?

12:24 pm

ME ME!

12:24 pm

it was so "movie of the week"ish

12:24 pm

Hi sha ....and bye to all catch you all tomorrow happy babbling ..bye..........

12:24 pm

Gandalf's back!!!!!!!

12:24 pm

i agree--soooo disappointing

12:24 pm

Hi ya all, hope your having a good day

12:25 pm

Report back when you've seen the movie, then, caitlyn! :)

12:25 pm

yay for gandalf!

12:25 pm

I'm not surprised he accepted the role - you know how much he's gonna make from it!?! And there's not much he can do to ruin his reputation - it won't kill his career and will explode his bank account

12:26 pm

Ohh hurray - MovieMan's back just in time to get in the movie discussion!

12:26 pm

Hi sha - missed you there. And katie too

12:26 pm

great cast, beautiful locations and . . . plodding, heavyhanded

12:26 pm

hmm, can't find it. what's the O5 besides om5/12 and os5/10?

12:27 pm

If you're discussing the Da Vinci Code, I haven't seen it yet....... I was gonna see it with Punster last week, but changed my mind at the last minute.....

12:27 pm

om5, on5, os5 Hursh

12:28 pm

don't waste your money, movieman

12:28 pm

I think anyone who really liked the book will be disappointed with the movie - but that is how it usually goes

12:28 pm

excellent, thanks amanda

12:28 pm

What surprised me most was that Ron Howard wanted to direct it! He's the one who generally has such good taste!

12:28 pm

It was reviewed on Radio 5 in England and the review said he just wanted the lights to be turned on as the whole film was set in the dark

12:28 pm

hmm, so if you liked the book you will be disappointed - if you didn't like it you won't like the movie - so all they can get is people who HAVEN'T read it. and i agree about ron howard.

12:29 pm

I decided not to see it in the end, 'cos of all the negative reviews I read about it..... One paper even gave it a 'turkey' rating......

12:29 pm

I haven't read the book but hate films that are shot in the dark!!! not sure whether to go yet or not

12:29 pm

how many re's we got today?

12:29 pm

lighting was fine, cinematography was fine, music was fine . . . . movie was just boring

12:30 pm

I'm not sure anyone will be able to really follow the movie without reading the book

12:30 pm

movieman, I wanted to like it and to ignore the critics at Cannes but this time they were right

12:30 pm

one of the most boring movies ever: being human with robin williams. we actually walked out, only time i've ever done that.

12:30 pm

But then it won't hurt him either, and oooo all that money! Just means he'll be able to do more stuff like Arrested Development - so I guess we should all be glad, in the end.

12:30 pm

Thank God there are some movies that do the source novels justice...... Like the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Trainspotting, and A Clockwork Orange.....

12:30 pm

oh, saphyre - that means NOBODY will like the movie!

12:30 pm

Clockwork Orange, ohmygod, what a movie

12:31 pm

I'm ashamed to admit this but I hated the Lord of the Rings books so have never seen the movies

12:31 pm

And not forgetting The Godfather.....

12:31 pm

I read the book and thought the movie was lacking, my daughter read the book twice and hated the movie

12:32 pm

*sigh* yes

12:32 pm

Katie, you don't know what you're missing.......

12:32 pm

which movie are you talking about??

12:32 pm

that's ok katie - we won't throw you out :)

12:32 pm

DaVinci Code

12:32 pm

I know I really really tried to like the books but Frodo was just such a prat

12:32 pm

LOTR was an absolutely fantastic adaptation. I was terrified when the news first came out that they were going to movie-ize it, but they truly did an amazing job!

12:32 pm

oohhhh, i agree with your daughter . . . .thought you were talking about Godfather!

12:33 pm

Peter Jackson is a cinematic God!!!!!!!!!

12:34 pm

They looked fantastic but it would be a bit like watching watership down when you don't give a stuff about the rabits (something else I am guilty of)

12:34 pm

Tom Hanks hasn't made a decent movie since.....well, forever......

12:34 pm

He is great, but he evidently can't be a god since he does have faults - i.e. King Kong

12:35 pm

I WANT TOM HANKS TO BE FUNNY AGAIN!!!!!!!

12:35 pm

now, movieman, when you want to sink to a low level of fluff, you have to admit he's fun with Meg Ryan

12:35 pm

Pete Jackson is a god in the sense that he can make a three hour-plus movie and make it seem like two hours.....

12:35 pm

the funny thing is we all think of tom hanks and meg ryan but haven't they only actually acted in like 2 scenes together?

12:35 pm

and i LOVED Big

12:36 pm

Now I loved S in S

12:36 pm

or were they in something else besides sleepless?

12:36 pm

You've Got Mail

12:36 pm

I'm sorry, une, but I just can't stand the man.....

12:36 pm

oh yeah i forgot that.

12:36 pm

youve got mail

12:36 pm

i like her hair so much better long.

12:36 pm

Weren't they the same movie, different title?

12:37 pm

I loved that one as well!! Mindless pap is obviously my taste in films :)

12:37 pm

hah! yes, amandacath!!

12:37 pm

I preferred Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally.....

12:37 pm

I like her lips so much better real

12:37 pm

amanda - oh yes :)

12:37 pm

no, not at all, amanda, really

12:37 pm

harry sally is one of the greatest movies!!

12:37 pm

ugh, can't stand the pumped up lips

12:37 pm

i esp love the big can of aquanet

12:38 pm

ohmygod, hurshy, my daughter has memorized practically the whole script from harry sally!

12:38 pm

Especially the 'fake orgasm' scene...... "I'll have what she's having!!!!!".......

12:38 pm

"waiter, there is too much pepper in my paprikash"

12:38 pm

spoken by Billy Crystal's mom

12:39 pm

Harry/Sally is great, and I actually do like Meg Ryan, when she sticks to what she's good at. I've got a soft spot for her ever since she played Betsy on ATWT

12:39 pm

amanda, you have to admit she was pretty pathetic on ATWT--she's come a looooong way!

12:39 pm

wuh?

12:40 pm

It's a soap opera - who isn't pathetic!?!?

12:41 pm

i don't watch soaps - can anyone tell me why practically every single shot is a close-up of a face? is there a reason they do that???

12:41 pm

clues for the last 2 sa 6/18 s please i have one but the one clue fmitch gave me earlier the word i thought it was wont go in

12:41 pm

havent' watched soaps in many years but Meg Ryan on ATWT I do remember . . .

12:41 pm

ello ruthy

12:42 pm

one is the pl of a 5/10, the other has the fun a4/4 in the middle

12:42 pm

The only time I watched soaps was 27 years ago when I was on bed rest with my first kid, thank god she was 2 months early

12:42 pm

Ruthy - next to the last is WestWing Pres Matt, last one is ... have to think about a clue for that one

12:42 pm

:-D

12:44 pm

lull in storms--off to walk dogs--BBL

12:44 pm

I haven't watched any in years either - believe it or not, they're even worse when dubbed into a foreign language! How 'bout David Hasselhof on TYATR - he unfortunately HASN'T gone very far

12:45 pm

"then it's nothing but words, words, words all the time!"

12:45 pm

you lost me hursh - are we back to Harry/Sally?

12:46 pm

no - paraphrasing princess bride...

12:46 pm

oh *puts on list of DVDs to buy*

12:48 pm

love princess bride

12:49 pm

Is the an7/28 a compound word?

12:49 pm

I think umpic should be a word. "I'm feeling a bit umpic today" = a little bit in a bad mood for no real reason

12:49 pm

no vi

12:49 pm

The 2nd ce8/45 plz.....

12:49 pm

the first is a pl, the second is a comparative

12:50 pm

movieman - like an in7

12:50 pm

Thanks.

12:51 pm

12:51 pm

s + sw5

12:51 pm

12:51 pm

Hi cliff! You've been lurking

12:51 pm

12:51 pm

12:52 pm

12:52 pm

12:53 pm

Still can't get the 2nd ce8/45........

12:53 pm

good for you, cliff! They never let me do that since I didn't weigh enough - that was many years ago, though, I'm sure I've caught up by now

12:53 pm

CHS, do you have in7 (a pl)? change the i to the ce

12:53 pm

Never mind, just found it!!!!

12:57 pm

my son and i always used to donate together. It was wierd without him (he's in the air force now)

12:58 pm

going to chill for a bit, might bbl

12:58 pm

Cliff - I really wish I could donate blood, but, unfortunately, as I am on medication for my epilepsy, I can't.....

12:59 pm

Cliff, hows he getting on ? whats the latest?

1:00 pm

I guess he is all settled ino things by now?

1:00 pm

Oh, that's right, Cliff - your son's down south isn't he?

1:01 pm

I, too, used to donate regularly. I donated platelets and loved doing it knowing it helped so many people. Haven't been able to since cancer.

1:01 pm

i will be traveling to see him graduate from officer training in july (in alabama.) only five more weeks before i can hug him again. he has now moved up to be 'upper' class in the training and is happy the hellish stuff is over.

1:01 pm

grrr, i can't find words.

1:01 pm

Whatcya need, Hursh?

1:01 pm

thanks for asking....

1:02 pm

Cliff you wil have to take a phot and upload it for your icon when you get back!

1:02 pm

fmitch - thank you again for guiding me to flickr. my son can enjoy all the kitten pic's now.

1:03 pm

i need 3 A's, for one thing (hence the encouraging cliff to ask for more clues for them)

1:03 pm

your welcome cliff :)

1:03 pm

and i can't wait to see my son in uniform. you can bet i'll have some pics of him up once i get back!

1:03 pm

sorry hursh, i have all my a's :(

1:04 pm

A words are the worst - got the fire one?

1:04 pm

yes, got fire. any really weird 5's or 6's?

1:05 pm

How about former talk-show host ar----- Hall, minus i.

1:05 pm

two wierd 6's: 1. Social instability caused by erosion of standards and values. 2. Alienation and purposelessness experienced by a person or a class as a result of a lack of standards, values, or ideals: “We must now brace ourselves for disquisitions on peer pressure, adolescent an**** and rage” (Charles Krauthammer).

1:05 pm

ne clues for tha sa 6-18?

1:06 pm

Wow, when amanda goes for the googleable, she doesn't mess around!

1:06 pm

like that helps - like low on blood with a diff vowel in the middle

1:06 pm

Of the ones amanda's def applies two, one is adj and one is n.

1:07 pm

(applies TO, I mean, of course)

1:08 pm

i could've sworn i'd tried the adj one before

1:08 pm

it meant something completely different than what I was expecting, so I thought I'd s5/12...:)

1:08 pm

cliffopa, congratulations to your son. You have every right to be proud of him. Wave if you drive through Georgia.

1:08 pm

Anyone clue me up with the an7/28 (the last one)?......

1:28 pm

hi everyone

hey there firefly

1:29 pm

bye amanda, hi firefly

1:30 pm

are any of the sn's 6's?

1:30 pm

hurshy, has noble been on lately?

1:30 pm

just 4's and 5's

1:30 pm

mmm, can't quite remember when he was last on, firefly. he's more into role-playing games than babble i think.

1:31 pm

ty une

1:31 pm

oh, he'd been on for several days in a row, thought maybe he'd still be around as much

1:32 pm

well, he doesn't want to overwhelm everyone with his enthusiasm :) he thinks babblers can only handle him in infrequent doses.

1:32 pm

i totally understand! lol, but he was fun anyways

1:32 pm

he was!

1:33 pm

i'm sure he'll be around now and then. he tends to get on between like 5 and 9 eastern US time (4 and 8 babble time)

1:33 pm

oh i remember he did stop by monday for his dairy product day

1:34 pm

i wondered if he'd be on then... :)

1:34 pm

also, just wondering, has mikey in berlin been on since the spat with nobel?

1:34 pm

yes, he was on the next day, and then not since, i believe.

1:34 pm

didn't know there was a spat but noticed he was missing

1:34 pm

*noble

1:34 pm

he went off in a huff

1:35 pm

because?

1:35 pm

the whole thing seemed silly to me, but to each his own

1:35 pm

because we didnt appreciate him enough

1:35 pm

because he enjoyed being huffy...?

1:35 pm

The in6/21 plz.....

1:35 pm

or something like that

1:36 pm

because noble was being noble, and he couldn't understand that, and felt oppressed by all

1:36 pm

well put firefly :)

1:36 pm

and HURSH LOVES CHS!!!

1:36 pm

not sure what that means, but ok

1:37 pm

noble was being ignoble, actually! :)

1:37 pm

thank you Atalante

1:37 pm

which part Une?

1:38 pm

i guess i don't know about Noble

1:38 pm

noble was being a typical teenage boy, and mikey's dignity was offended by his attitude

1:38 pm

noble's 14, everything he says is a joke, he teased mikey, it didn't go over well

1:38 pm

noble is a 14 year old boy, he's a bit overwhelming at times, and he was pestering Mikey about his German

1:38 pm

oooohhh, gotcha

1:38 pm

ce 8/45 has me beat - clue?

1:38 pm

well put, Ata

1:38 pm

Noble is a kid with a smart mouth. Most of us found him entertaining and/or shrug-off-able. Mikey couldn't shrug it off.

1:38 pm

SCD - was that supposed to be a clue, 'cos if it was, I don't understand it.....

1:38 pm

oh, right, i remember that day--had forgotten

1:39 pm

no movieman, that's the one i'm missing. i'll look now.

1:39 pm

Mikey took him too seriously, and couldn't let it go, and made a mountain out of a molehill

1:40 pm

2:14 pm

2:15 pm

*dance of done with 5's*

2:16 pm

2:28 pm

i think four, hurshy

2:29 pm

2:29 pm

hmm, my 3 are all plurals in one way or another... can you tell me what i might be looking for?

2:29 pm

It's time for the bangers (and I don't mean sausages!!!!!!!)..........

2:29 pm

hi kids.

2:29 pm

2:29 pm

hurshy, the 6/33 is used to take calluses off feet

2:29 pm

oh shoot i miscounted i DO have all 4 p6's

2:30 pm

but now i'm confused cause none of them are worth 33

2:30 pm

so i guess there are 5

2:30 pm

how many words r in this puzzle..:)

2:30 pm

sorry, i meant 6/30

2:30 pm

but yay, thanks abe, i know that word!

2:31 pm

well, still, it turns out there ARE 5 P6's

smaz - sorry, finally someone returned a phone call -yeah, that's what i do too, just keep pressing '0' my insurance has this thing where after you do that about 1000 times, they say, may i just ask you a few more ?'s before i connect you with the operator - UHHHHHH - and why is it i take 2 dif. bp meds????

2:31 pm

leaving me one word to go! :) :) :)

2:31 pm

lol. helenkeller.

but now on to more pleasent things : this fine grid & you fine (& very helpful) people

2:33 pm

this may help. when i know i am going to have to deal with the wrong department, i always start off by saying 'I'm sorry, i am really clueless and am quite sure i have the wrong department, but is it possible you may assist me." Once i find someone who has been very helpful, i always ask if i can call them back direct so not have to explain everything all over again. I am dealing with the state of OR right now and i have found a very, very nice and helpful person.

2:34 pm

Atalante did you get that me 5/12?

yeah smaz- i actually have tried that - only the rare perons 'at the top' or 'near the top' has actual, direct lines - it is supremely frustrating - but thanks for letting me blow off steam

2:35 pm

anyone need a hint

2:35 pm

In case anyone didn't quite get the gist of my last post, I was trying to say "I've Finished!!!!!!!!!!".........

2:35 pm

au revoir leavers

3:18 pm

3:19 pm

3:19 pm

Hear! Hear! Helen

3:19 pm

oh i'm not leaving i was just saying bye to the leavers

makes me very mad

3:19 pm

the first ce is a 5/12

3:20 pm

followed by 6/21

3:20 pm

Oh, don't get me going. I hate the fact that people don't spay or neuter their cats.

3:20 pm

I have a 4/5, 5/12, 6/21 that doesn't seem like it'd fit in the list...but I'll give it a go

3:20 pm

mine are all spayed or neutered as applicable :)

3:20 pm

it's sensless how many animals have to be put down.

we bred german shepherds for a few years, we took it very seriously, i always worried, what if no ones buys these dogs, but most people bought immediatley! those were good days

3:21 pm

Yeah, hurshy!

3:21 pm

we got them fixed very young

3:21 pm

that's the best way.

we have an excellent relationship with our vet - makes house calls for us. hubby has a guard dog business, all shepherds, many are rescues, & he gave them jobs, lol. but they are working dogs & they really do like to work!

it's all in how you raise dogs - i know hardly anything about cats

3:23 pm

hello all

3:23 pm

darn those phantom words! 'moisten' 'monster'

3:23 pm

hi nrkii.

hiya nrkii :))

3:24 pm

hi nrkii!

3:24 pm

I know!

3:24 pm

you feed em, comb them, make sure their cat litter is clean and that's about it.

what about 'women' that's all i keep seeing

3:24 pm

There seem to be a lot of phantoms today.

3:24 pm

hi nrkii!!

3:24 pm

emotions is what i want to see.

3:24 pm

i used to go out with a guy who said the same thing, hellenkeller. ;-)

3:24 pm

lol jbp

3:25 pm

3:26 pm

homie isn't a word"?!

3:26 pm

3:26 pm

I know!

okay i have 70 left & it just keeps saying 'word already entered' - i think my game is broken - going to list

3:26 pm

I was sad.

3:26 pm

hah, looking for more phantom words i found a real one! glad i didn't type it in the chatter box :)

3:27 pm

i have the one that sounds like to feel, and it's -er, pennie + plural...clues, anyone?

3:27 pm

3:28 pm

3:28 pm

That homie wasn't a word

3:28 pm

fizzle!

3:28 pm

oops Fiz!

3:28 pm

penny + end of abbr for long long car, and pl

3:28 pm

the one i found is an acronym of the bean/car/horse. + plural

3:29 pm

a vintner makes wine, so perhaps a ce7 makes pennies? (not a great clue, sorry)

3:29 pm

and that has a plural

3:29 pm

and then the other ce8 is like an in7

3:29 pm

hurshy, that was a great clue!

3:30 pm

thanks hurshy! i don't get the penny + long car ending one tho?

yes that was great hursh:)

3:30 pm

i dunno nrkii, i felt like it gave too much away.

3:30 pm

you know, a stretch... is a long car

3:30 pm

or give the penny a spanish ending

3:31 pm

yeah, maybe, but I'll take it at this point -- apparently I didn't pray hard enough last night!!!

3:31 pm

yes, like "the freshmaker"

3:31 pm

Hah!

3:31 pm

in 7 that the ce is similar to... is it sound or trap

3:31 pm

no but jbp i mean add more of the long car, all but the first letter

3:31 pm

sound

3:31 pm

That could be a word too.

3:32 pm

yes the freshmaker ones i thought someone else covered so i didn't mention them

3:32 pm

what about the first ce 5/12? I can't seem to monkey type it :$

3:32 pm

ah, finally, got it.

3:32 pm

sorry to be dense... i don't get the car... i get what kind, but I can't make the letters behave

3:33 pm

it sounds like the pennies jamsicle

3:33 pm

3:42 pm

no "do again" words hurshy?

3:42 pm

and one from yesterday vi

3:42 pm

nope, not a one, nrkii

3:43 pm

One thing you can say about their music: it varies wildly from song to song!

3:43 pm

yay!!!

3:43 pm

True, although if you weren't allowed to use any word that ever appered in the grid, the chat log would be much quieter.

3:44 pm

i know but i just remembered cause i love that word

3:44 pm

im missing a 'w'... i have the 4/10 5/20 and 4/8/..anyone know the other?

3:44 pm

3:45 pm

3:45 pm

"ah! my dulcet darling! tonight, we marry! tomorrow mornig, your men [to yellin] will escort us to florin harbor, where every ship in my armada waits to accompany us on our honeymoon."

3:45 pm

rolin, 5/24

3:45 pm

what's the w 4/10?

3:45 pm

wh 5/24 - meaning pummel

3:45 pm

nrkii, like your lower ja*, just change the vowel

3:45 pm

its a pronoun?

3:45 pm

Every ship but your four fastest, you mean

3:46 pm

w 4/10 is w 5/24 without last letter

3:46 pm

thanks nrkii!

3:46 pm

No recital, just chatter. Mostly a discussion of whom my daughter is drawing pictures for, punctuated by the sounds associated with bonking into the corner of a table...

3:46 pm

I keep thinking 'dulcet and harmonious breath' from A Midsummer Night's Dream

3:46 pm

cool..got it..thx all

3:46 pm

yes, yes of course, naturally not those four

3:47 pm

Anyone have a clue for the ce 7/32 8/45 combo I'm guessing?

3:47 pm

3:47 pm

3:49 pm

Well, Fran, I'm sure someone has, but I certainly wouldn't listen to it by choice!

3:49 pm

jo 4/13, many southerners eat hog jo 4/13 with one letter added

3:49 pm

oh, i have that one fran

3:49 pm

you never sent the ships. don't bother lying. it doesn't matter, my westley will come for me anyway.

3:49 pm

jmmmmm

3:49 pm

nrkii, do you have the je4/9 that is an anagram of 5/20 minus the S?

3:49 pm

Ha ha, hurshy, I killed him myself! (to paraphrase)

3:49 pm

you're a silly girl

3:49 pm

(no he doesn't say that until the wedding vi)

3:50 pm

je 5/20?

3:50 pm

yes, i am a silly girl, for not having seen sooner that you were nothing but a coward with a heart full of fear.

3:50 pm

True, but I figured we might as well skip to the chase!

3:50 pm

FRAN!!!!

3:50 pm

SKIP, when i'm having such fun?

3:50 pm

jbp, last name, also means to crave something

3:50 pm

But if you prefer, "I would not say such things if I were you!"

3:50 pm

NRKII!

3:50 pm

fran..thx for the clue..but it hasnt been listed in dictionary.com...do you know what it means?

3:50 pm

when i get married in august, we're trying to find someone who will start the ceremony off a la Peter Cook...

3:51 pm

oh, like how I jo***for more brainpower

3:51 pm

no rolin, maybe hurshy knows

3:51 pm

tx fran, that was it!

3:51 pm

and why not? you can't hurt me. westley and i are joined by the bonds of love, and you cannot track that, not with a thousand bloodhounds. and you cannot break it, not with a thousand swords. and when i say you are a coward that is only because you are the slimiest weakling ever to crawl the earth!

3:51 pm

I WOULD NOT SAY SUCH THINGS IF I WERE YOU!!!

3:52 pm

slimiest?

3:52 pm

my sister was married 2 years ago and the minister started just like peter cook

3:52 pm

On purpose, pabtrek?

hiya minski

3:53 pm

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

this is what happens when you try to do a crossword and give clues at the same time

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

Ah, I see.

3:58 pm

3:58 pm

3:59 pm

3:59 pm

4:02 pm

can a little stream be a ridlet?

4:02 pm

I think you want runlet, hurshy.

4:02 pm

never heard of that, heard of rivulet

4:03 pm

brooklet

4:03 pm

i heard of rivulet but that is too long

4:03 pm

runlet...i think doesn't work bc i'm pretty sure that passenger vessel is liner

4:03 pm

not luner :)

4:04 pm

so, about those P's...?

4:04 pm

if you make coins, why can't you unmake them?

4:04 pm

how about runnel

4:04 pm

and if i put a d in to make ridlet, that gives me edgar as an english composer

4:04 pm

8 there are 8 pe

4:05 pm

and 13 pi

4:05 pm

wow, okay, that will be a fun challenge then, thanks

4:05 pm

no i am sure it is ri*let, just wondering about the D

4:06 pm

Your composer should be Elgar.

4:06 pm

Making rillet, I suppose, which isn't too unreasonable.

4:06 pm

and how come we can't make "snack again"?

4:06 pm

ok so rillet then

4:06 pm

i'll look it up and see :)

4:07 pm

Well, a rill is a stream, so it should work.

4:07 pm

Some day i may go as high as ten, but i don't know what that would do to you, so please this is for posterity's sake, so be honest. How do you feel?

4:46 pm

4:50 pm

4:50 pm

what do you mean by fish?

4:50 pm

But you didn't REALLY kill your father, ( did you?)

4:50 pm

I think that's great.

4:50 pm

oh sorry ornith - when we miss something easy (like a plural of a word we have) we hit ourselves with a fish

4:50 pm

no, we just say that.

4:50 pm

chapter 1. buttercup was raised on a small farm in the country of florin. her favorite pastimes were riding her horse and tormenting the farmboy that worked there. his name was westley, but she never called him that...

4:52 pm

hurshy, are those trolls from earlier from your school, by any chance?

4:52 pm

missing several hos, actually.

4:53 pm

no indeed, shirin

4:53 pm

hoje

4:53 pm

some words are soooo getting pimpslapped.

4:53 pm

sorry

4:53 pm

which do you mean, shirin, the whole group of them that was on at once a week or two ago?

4:53 pm

"yeah...its really good."

4:53 pm

I wonder how they found this website

4:54 pm

the ones I say earlier

4:54 pm

their teacher, mr. carlson, told them they could play on here, i think, and then left them alone, from what i've heard from the school administrators. (they said the name of the school so i called the principal)

4:55 pm

wait what happened?

4:55 pm

the troll from today i don't know anything about.

4:55 pm

or has there been more than one troll today?

4:55 pm

and then, what happened?

4:55 pm

ok, just need that one ho5/14 at the top now :) anyyyyyone?

4:56 pm

what happened when?

4:56 pm

maybe it was just one. I was just glancing earlier today during work

4:56 pm

plural fish, ornith - there's a 4/6 before it, oui?

4:56 pm

after you called the principal

Need help with SA 6/18 and SA 5/10..

4:57 pm

*hits self with fish* yes, and I didn't see the plural because I was looking from the wrong H.

4:57 pm

oh ok shirin then i was misled by your use of the plural and thought you meant the horrendous gang of them from before. the principal is trying to figure out which kids it was but since the teacher wasn't in the room it is challenging.

oops - SA 6/18 and SA 10 - I have the ones relating to mentally healthy; grandchild of Japanese immigrants; and a large sandstone block......

4:57 pm

yes ornith that is tricky because the singular comes from the 2nd row and the pl from the bottom

4:57 pm

any clues for any of the en's?

4:57 pm

hi, I have the pe 4/5 and the pe 7/32 but am missing the pe 8 in between ... can someone help with the 5th letter?

4:58 pm

kkiln, the short ones are archaic for enough(s)

4:58 pm

well, i guess I'll have to find out what happened later, as i gotta go. Have a great evening eveyone. X-men 3 opens tomorrow! woot!

5:10 pm

5:11 pm

uncagain, the last three letters of me5 are the first three letters of casual shoes...

5:11 pm

ornith, somone who believes in NEW things is ne 5/10

5:11 pm

it's one of those ones that's hard to give clues for, sadly.

5:11 pm

can anyone help on either of the no 5/12s?

5:12 pm

thanks nrkii, and nope, those are my next gaps

5:12 pm

ornith, it starts like the other me(1st 3 letters), then sounds like the middle of your leg

5:13 pm

ah well, casual shoes , ringing no bells for me, I guess i am off my feed today

5:13 pm

maybe shirin's clue will help you

5:14 pm

or how about tennis shoes

5:14 pm

sorry ornith, I meant the clue for uncagain

5:14 pm

did you get it uncagain?

5:14 pm

np shirin

5:14 pm

lol, that did it. Thanks, now off the dictionary to find out what it means

5:15 pm

ornith, I got one of the no's -- it sounds like a short way of saying I don't want you to keep feeding me

5:15 pm

then plural

5:16 pm

nomoe isn't a word... hmm. hard ones!

5:16 pm

I tried that one too!

5:16 pm

ornith, you are close, but start from bottom N

5:17 pm

that got me one - probably the plural.

5:17 pm

I keep wanting nomon to be there, but I think that's really spelled with a silent g in front

5:17 pm

ah, got em. yay!

5:17 pm

The brain is not functioning. Any clues for the final SA5/10 and 2 SA6/18s, please?

5:17 pm

what's the other one? clue please?

5:18 pm

nrkii, change the last letter to the 3rd vowel

5:18 pm

I have no idea what they mean, but it looks like the plural is actually the singular and it's greek or something

5:18 pm

charm, spanish for holy

5:18 pm

plural of same

5:19 pm

and then S + setting a fire, but change last vowel

5:19 pm

6:53 pm

6:56 pm

locke, dead??? what am i forgetting?

and i still don't understand who 'the others' are, but now i think maybe rousseau is one of them

6:57 pm

:), bonkler lol

6:57 pm

the hatch blowing up (or so we are led to maybe believe)

6:57 pm

oh, desmond and the key, etc

i'm assuming when that guy turned the key & then everything went whitish = well, maybe the hatch exploded

Good afternoon all, any clues on pe8/55?

6:57 pm

i didn't think it blew up actually! that didn't even occur to me, just thought it was all part of the magnetic weirdness

sorry marc - i don't have it yet

6:58 pm

what show are you discussing?

6:58 pm

go to the fuselage.com, good discussion board of the show

yes, but you can't see OR hear magnetism, lol

tx feather - just what i need something else to get sucked into :)

6:59 pm

Will have to think on that a bit, don't have any st4's yet...

7:02 pm

kristinc - i totally agree! i didn't have it yet, but I got it right away, and checking your profile, i'm guessing it's the Mariners you're thinking of (I am!)

7:04 pm

firefly :)...yeah the Mariner's are having some issues this year, they could use all the mo 4/10 we can offer. Where in Eastern WA?

7:04 pm

I hate this puzzle, grrrr

7:08 pm

7:09 pm

I love going to baseball games (but not watching them on TV)... been to the Orioles, Florida State, Kansas City, and the farm team for KC, the Omaha Royals (we lived in Omaha)

7:10 pm

agreed Jen...baseball on tv doesn't interest me at all but I like watching it live (besides, the last place you can still bring in outside food)

7:10 pm

Thanks faerie... my silly husband proceeded to answer the d@mn phone when it was an unknown caller... then handed the stupid salesperson (which of course it was) to me...

7:10 pm

sarah says you're meeting at her house at 1:00 Sunday just bring yourselves

7:10 pm

And not feel guilty about eating lots of hot dogs and drinking lots of beer! :)

7:10 pm

I'm also waiting for the last Girl to be picked up from the Scout meeting...

7:11 pm

Hey, Jen... ya wanna come to a Luau on the 24th??

7:16 pm

Oh Jen your going to have a home coming....excellent <grin>

7:17 pm

7:18 pm

Jen -- he's coming home? how wonderful!

7:18 pm

And yes, faerie, we will have a home coming! >:)

7:18 pm

thanks anyway kirstinc

7:18 pm

hi all -- decided to check in -- not playing today.

7:18 pm

Hey hey stidmama!

7:18 pm

hi stid!

{{{{{stid}}}}}}

7:19 pm

:-)

7:19 pm

hi stid!

7:19 pm

Fran...whoya got on your icon?

7:19 pm

I figured the grid would be awful again when I say it last night, so didn't even log in until now. was that a good decision?

probably

7:20 pm

pe8/55 anyone?

I'm just playing on paper, myself, even tho he's been gone since 9:30

7:20 pm

Is it Mike from Desp Hous Fran?

7:20 pm

hi kristin, would you believe me if i said it was my husband?... just kidding, it's james denton, one of the actors on desperate housewives

7:20 pm

stid...I started an hour ago and halfway there (with chatting), not bad so far

7:21 pm

wow -- how's you manage to get the whole day to yourself daisy?

7:21 pm

Fran...that's what I though but couldn't tell for sure :)

7:21 pm

yes, but kristin -- you're actually really good at this! ;-)

7:21 pm

Ooooh, daisy.... is that Tom Selleck?!?!! He's hot!!

7:21 pm

is that his character's name jen? i don't even watch!

they finally found him some work to do!

AND a Nexicore call on top of that

7:22 pm

pe8/55 - start with prefix for five, end with ending of a-bomb or energy from fission

7:22 pm

whatever stid...I've played with you before...you do just as well if not better

7:22 pm

'bout time, too! Men need work to keep them happy... (of course, so do we, but we're Babblers... a special class!)

7:23 pm

everything loaded fine for me first time just now -- did anyone else notice that things seemed to be going quicker/easier today?

7:23 pm

Vicuna, got the first part of the pe8 still working on the ending

7:24 pm

I'm having computer issues but I think they're independent of the site...seems to be wireless connection issues for me I'm lost on the pe8 too :(

7:24 pm

Yeah! I am actually able to put in words quickly today, with no load time (not that I've been entering quickly a lot today)

7:25 pm

okay pe8 - first three letters you write with, second three letters male cat or turkey, last two letters make it an adj

7:25 pm

peri and kristin, use less of the prefix and more of the bomb!

7:26 pm

Vicuna, figured it out before I saw your second clue, thanks,

7:26 pm

FranMag, thank you too

7:27 pm

pe7/32?

7:27 pm

Tom and Matthew are home, going to go finish making dinner, then back later. :-)

7:27 pm

Bye stid! :)

7:27 pm

bye stid!

bye stid:)

7:28 pm

pe7: I'd just google "Any of a class of monosaccharides having five carbon atoms per molecule and including ribose and several other sugars"

7:28 pm

pe7/32 - same first 5 letters, rhymes with what you use to water the yard

7:29 pm

Jen, thanks\

7:30 pm

Vicuna, thanks, got the pe7 with your clue

7:30 pm

okay, gonna get some dinner, back later

7:32 pm

see you later kristin!

7:33 pm

up6/27

7:33 pm

wow, that first S, i'm having trouble pulling words from it! (don't worry about clues yet, i'm just griping)

7:33 pm

nevermind

7:33 pm

actually, both esses

7:34 pm

WHY oh why is ho4/5 (the garden thing) with an r on the end not a word?!?!!? It darn well is!!! And I'm not even Canadian, eh!

7:36 pm

9:20 pm

the 8/45 was the one i clued earlier feather, ends in to5/10

9:20 pm

in church you have ince*** kristin

9:20 pm

feather, ce 8 start with same first 4 letters, and end with a syllable that sounds like a hospital worker who is not a doctor

9:21 pm

thanks feather!

9:21 pm

oh that one! sorry feather i was overlooking that one

i am very glad no one can strangle me through the computer :)

9:21 pm

9:22 pm

9:23 pm

9:23 pm

interesting bit of trivia, the ce 8/45 we were just talking about is twice as heavy in the former soviet union as in germany

9:23 pm

anybody have a clue for up 6/27

9:23 pm

It sure is. I've been waiting four years and more for a great grandchild--but these days young married people wait till they're in their thirties before starting families

Fran, Stid...I need both of those

9:23 pm

fran, make it sound like s + illegal fire starting, but change last vowel

9:24 pm

9:24 pm

see ya dino!

9:24 pm

bye dino!

9:25 pm

I was counting the points based on the numbers on the tiles. Is that not how it's done?

9:25 pm

night dino

9:25 pm

night!

9:25 pm

bye dino!

9:25 pm

good night hetty. see you tomorrow.

Fran! good job!

9:25 pm

ty Fran!

9:25 pm

it's 6/27, so with a 6 tile word you multiply the points by 3

9:25 pm

good night hetty, see you tomorrow!

9:26 pm

good night all babblers wherever you are.

9:26 pm

so all tiles are multiplied by 3?

9:26 pm

thanks nrk!! it would help if i read your clue properly! i have fireworks!!

9:26 pm

9:27 pm

I'm lost on all the sa 6's

9:27 pm

feather, the in7/28 is very similar

9:27 pm

so what do the numbers on the tiles get used for?

9:28 pm

YAY Fran!

9:28 pm

those are the base points, so your UP word was 9 total base points x 3

9:28 pm

HONEY do you still need help?

9:28 pm

liora, those are the points that get multiplied as you get longer words

See ya'll tomorrow hopefully!! Bye now.

9:44 pm

I'm back from chatting with my grandma. My grandpa (who, if you don't know, had a massive heart attack on Mother's Day, 3 stints put in 3 days later...) is doing better today, although they are still looking at a rehab home to help him get on his feet. Please don't say "nursing home" to him... b/c in his mind, that's the "last" stop.

thank you for all your help

9:44 pm

swoosh - ka - boom is excellent sound effect smazing!

9:45 pm

well thank you nrkii.

9:45 pm

Jen, sorry to hear about your grandpa's illness -- glad he's doing better now.

Glad to hear he is doing better Jen. I was wondering about that today.

9:46 pm

nrkii -I'm still missing a sa5. I have more rational and plural rational. What one am I missing?

9:46 pm

Jen, good to hear he's still improving. A rehab center is a good place -- all kinds of help to regain strength and stability. Definitely encourage him to make the most of his time there!

9:47 pm

oh and YAY helen!

11:41 pm

11:42 pm

are these words all in english? i thought i had a decent vocabulary, but well, hah, i guess not!

11:42 pm

well -- like I said, it was just too much to watch the clues flying by and not be able to participate!

I know what you mean, leanne!

11:42 pm

leanne, most of the words are used in some way by english speakers, but they are very obscure...

11:42 pm

as douglas would say, resistance is futile!

11:42 pm

and some of them, i am convinced, are not real words at all!

11:43 pm

yes, the vortex caught me and sucked me in...

11:43 pm

today's list has japanese, spanish and italian i think

11:43 pm

thanks for the clue oggy - hubby helped me compute it :)

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

yet, a french word, joie wasn't in the dictionary

11:44 pm

little word for belly?

11:44 pm

yeah ls1, but there's a vowel after the t

Sorry oggy, not getting it.

11:44 pm

I long ago gave up trying to comprehend the workings of the dis-enable dictionary!

11:44 pm
