??? confusion ???
I really don't, ladies!
me guess? me guess? are the initials, PD?
stid- your profile says you are 39, well maybe we are older than we like to think we are - why, it's the patty duke show
you missed something if you missed patty duke
where patty duke played herself and her identical, but very sophisticated cousin, cathy, before trick tv, of course
death
patty duke is a name I remember.... but never knew! except she's the mother of sean astin (Samwise Gamgee)...
oops, sorry
& i put in some of the words to the tune - cause it's very catchy
horror of horrors stid!!!!!!
pund
patty duke played helen keller!!!!!
time for bed, i am screwing up
yep - the show was before "miracle worker" when she was just a baby
OK, g'night all, and thanks for the help on the last puzzle... I was close, but didn't make it.

YAY Lickety! my hero! :-)
hi stid, yes its cold here too. had to find a jumper (sweater i think you call it) this morning to wear
thanks lickety!
yes, sweater -- though I know what jumper means, thanks to BBC shows!
the dictionary is out of date - it won't take blog!
I noticed! :-) I'll have to write about it in one of blogs tomorrow!
ls1 - what dictionary is that?
the "enable" dictionary that dr_god uses to check for words.
dictionaryt is in the grid

LOL
okay, that took a while, but i have my new icon!
groovy, Fran!
i like yours stid, love green acres
very cute fran - i considered trying to find them all lined up on the stairs - but then i wasn't sure how many of us had already gotten our magnifying glasses
this one is pushing it already
I thought it was really funny, and then I grew up and left the city to live in the country.... and discovered how much of it is true!
lol stid!
morning dear gang :)
hey sprite!
morning sprite
hiya Sprite!
hiya sprite

goodnight helen
Nite helen

i have 82 also
hit a dead end though
I am using the list. I have no desire to beat myself up when the grid is this big!
Bye :)
good idea stid - I usually try to get down to 50 - but I think I'll get the list
sprite, can you help me find the ae 7?
Lol, not yet, but let's see...
thanks. my monkey fingers are tired.
List of names I have found: ethan, dane...
Starts from the lower A, something to style your hair with when you go fly.
2helenkeller, Pattys, lol, double trouble?
thank you sprite! I was starting from the top of course... :-)
That's ae7/36
Yes, me too at first, that's why I mentioned it, lol.
sure...that's a word :) (the ae7)
I have 85 words, it's 10:41 (kristin what are you still doing up?) and I am done for now. Sprite, thanks again -- that word would have kept me up for sure!
Sleep well, stidmama :)
good night all! {{{hugs}}}
Nite stid..
bye stid
night stid!
stid...Fridays are my day off (well most any day is at this point) Goodnight!
goodnight stid - thanks for your help
buona sera stid
hi all
nite stid
hi kierlex
Hi Kierlex
it's a fantabulous night!
hi kierlex!
but i think my babble is hypnotizing me to sleepiness!
hi kristinc, you are the mommy 2 be, right?
try having a couple of kids over for a pyjama party for your son's birthday. No fantabulous night, only a verrrrrry short one ;)
ohhh wow. that is exactly the reason i dont have more than one kid per sleepover =)
yes kierlex...good memory!
sprite...bet they had fun anyhow :)
how goes bedrest kristinc?
Ah well, once a year I can do with lesser sleep, lol. They are having a great time. I will wake my husband in a short while to make them breakfast. Each his own, hahaha, he slept!
my son had a sleepover here last weekend and actually they put themselves to bed and to sleep before 10pm! And he's only 7. He was reallllly tired that night
Is it quiet on the inside, kristinc, still hanging in there?
kierlex...I'm doing fine, maybe you should ask my husband :) (we're all doing fine though)
how old are your kid(s) sprite
My son is 10 now, so tired is not in his dictionary at the mo ;)
My daughter is 8
well, when it comes to pregnancy it doesn't matter how hubby feels...
quiet enough to keep the baby in at this moment so a big improvement from a few weeks ago! thanks for asking
i have a son, 7 (Alex) and a daughter, 4 (Kiernan). Thus Kierlex...
Glad to hear that! And how is the mom-to-be... bored stiff from taking it easy?
nice nick, kierlex :)
blog was not found-- ???
thx sprite
hehe, abbr. for weblog. I agree it should be a word by now.
sprite...not too bored but stiff from sitting still :) I'm actually still working from home so that, visitors and babble keeps me occupied.
ty sprite :)
well it's in the dictionary.com as a word
kierlex...nice to know the origin of your screen name...that's cute!
well, let's hop Dr. G reads chat! ;)
Ah, that is good to hear, you still have lots of things to keep you from hitting walls. I will keep thinking of you and the little one :) ((((kristinc)))))
oh kristin, that is nice that you can do some work. Make sure hubby gives you leg and hip massages. i remember my hips just aching and aching
hope, Dr. G. :)
thanks sprite :) People on babble have been wonderful! ((((Sprite))) ((((kierlex))))
do you have a good pad for wherever you are laying? a good, thick eggshell pad came in handy (especialy when my water broke all over it and saved our futon mattress! lol)
i want hagle to work. and gleer. and pung....
Perhaps we should drop the whole enable dictionary and make our own babble version!
nothing that that kierlex...I actually try to change where I sit from time to time but I have wondered about whether to invest in at least a waterproof mattress pad (for the future I hope!) I can still be up and around a bit within the house.
that sound like a plan, sprite
yes...let's rewrite the dictionary! (mine would not include any re-words)
kierlex that last one does work, it's the stopper for a keg
oh, i see kristin. i was on strict bedrest (well, i tried the wandering around the house bedrest and landed in the hospital) so it was worth having something for comfort.
I soooo much wanted 'wootsier' yesterday.
remember pu4/8 in the wizard of id?
oooh, so it does! thanks franmag
i didnt think about a waterproof pad because my water didn't break with my first baby.
no, they want me up and about a bit...not more than 5-10 minutes at a time (but believe me, I take advantage of those)
hmm... good idea, kristinc ;)
mine didn't break until doctor was about to break it herself with my first
doesnt it seem like there is a high percentage of women on here all the time? i think that is cool (apologies to any lurking men)
yeah, with my first they broke it for me but it wasn't nearly as dramatic as when it broke at home in the living room. my 4 year old son was totally impressed by that!
Probably because we women tend to do lots of things at the same time, while most men will start the babble, work at it, then take their attention elsewhere?
actually i got my husband addicted and he will just sit here for hours during prime housecleaning/cooking/couldnt you do something else time instead of late at night like me, perfect woman lol
how funny kierlex!
eggnut needs two Gs :(
kristinc is this your first baby?
we have our token men on babble and they're all swell :)
yes...baby 1 for us and after all this drama...highly anticipated
my husband likes to play with me (he's pretty good)
ohhh so exciting!
no comment on your last comment kristin =)
It's a p 6/30 out there
do you know if it is a boy or girl?
Looks like our dictionary is actually in the grid!
kristinc! LOL!
what sprite?
true...play babble I mean (now I'm emabarassed) :)
it's a boy (she says tentatively not knowing how other things she writes late at night might be misinterpreted)
it is our 15th anniversary today and my hubby is sound asleep and i am babbling... how romantic!
E6/24 our dictionary, E7/36 even more so!
ah kierlex... congrats anyway ((((kierlex))))
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY KIERLEX and MR KIERLEX!
he got me a good card, it had a cartoon of a man and wife asleep on the couch in front of the tv, snoring. inside it said
"WILL THIS LIFE OF EXPLODING UNCONTROLLED ANIMALISTIC SEXUAL PASSION AND LUST NEVER CEASE?!?"
LOL! You have the best, a husband with a sense of humour. Nothing can beat that :)
tee hee kierlex...fun card!
and he got me a nice serious card, too, and made us dinner with king crab legs and shrimp
and we are going away to a b&b by a lake for 3 days with NO KIDS!!!!
ok i am jut blabbering on the babble cuz i am so excited for a vacation and i had toooooo much caffeine today!
Good! And now he sleeps and let you do your thing... you picked a good one. That 3 days will be paradise :)
I like your blabbering
okay, time for me to head off for the evening, thanks for the fun chat ladies! Have a great time on your trip whenever it will happen kierlex ;)
kristinc, all the best to you :)
take care kristin, and TAKE NAPS (while you can!!!)
blabbering is always entertaining...now we know eachother better...okay going for real now thanks Sprite!
well, he is on the night shift and had to work 10 hours straight plus teach a class for another 6 hours on his day off so he is pooooped
Aren't they cute when they sleep ;)
he is moving to day shift in 2 weeks so i am going to have to get used to sharing our bed again!
For a lot of biggies, use the ending of our dictionary. I found the 9 too, St9/66.
ohhh thanks sprite. i am such a newbie at this
Endings like that usually generate many nice words :)
ha 4/7 seems to be a popular start for words today. i have 5 others starting with that.
My tip: try it on anything even remotely likely to produce a word, lol. Some might be surprising.
i only found 2 with that ending sprite... will keep trying
there are at least 3 x T with it. And don't forget the dictionary itself, plus someone doing it.
evil: true! That's a nice nest of them there. For the ending: there is a unnice H too.
i got one t and then the dictionary and the doer
1x Te, 2x Tu.
ahhh, i see them now. never would have gotten those
ty, evil :)
no worries
how in the heck is blog not a word? i have one!
the dictionary needs to get modernized... blog is not found...
i think roughable should be a word
I was bummed about blog, too
lets vote!! lol
especially on the net--blog!
hi guys :)
hi atalante
Hey Everyone!
hi, all :)
yay! my 2nd favourite babblet is here!
Hi Ata :) Which one would that be?
the needlecase. not as good as ywis, though - of course!
hiya everyone!!!
I agree, one of my favorites too. Today with plural, that's also nice. But I like the double e variety even better :) Hi bex!
hi bex
oooh yes, the double e version is great!
aghhhh......missing 3 s's.....not happy.....
dick, you have the weaponlike one with the rap ending? St7/40? And Sp5/14, with anagram St5/14?
rap ending?
pune
t 7/36
hello everybody
errr... rap ending, like they have 'da' in stead of 'the', they don't have 'longer' but long..'.
do have the anagram....what a disgusting word...
I very much agree, dick.
missing sp6, first sp5 and st7
ooohkay sprite....... i dont get the hint but i am babble-remedial
It might just be a bad hint, kierlex.
is there an anagram for sp5/14?
For one of them, kierlex. The 2nd one, I think.
the disgusting one? i have that one
ahh i just got it
i see what u mean by rap ending
:)
i'm still not getting it...
anyone read The Lorax by dr seuss?
Not in english anyway... think not!
just rearrange the disgusting sp5/14 word dicktrickle
well, thnead should be a word =)
i am the lorax...i speak for the trees....and yes, thnead is a word in my book
ok i gave to go and get ready for school now bye everyone!
a 'thneed is a thing that everyone needs'
by bex777
i have that one lex...i need the other sp5, the sp6 and the st7....
bye, bex...
i only have 10 out of 21 s words so i cant help with anything other thean sp5
hello everyone!
Hi sprite lo ng time no see how are you??
oops i mean sp5/14 can be rearranged to st 5/14 with rap ending
dick, never mind, i now understand that you already have sp5.14.... slap me silly
I think I liked yesterdays grid better than this one.
it's all good...i should probably head to bed anyway
For the St7: shorthand, drop last letter, then 1st 2 letters of what you need to open to enter the garden, add one more consonant.
nice one...great clue sprite
i hate words that aren't words
the other Sp5/14 starts the same as the disgusting one, then short version of 'not low'
Wait.... not the same, it has another vowel, the start!
hi aleksia
Hi Lucky! How did the presentation go?
sprite your clues are not working for me =)
hi paige&Maddie
sprite can you re-explain the st7?
The Sp6 is alt. spelling for that Sp5/14 with the 'not low' ending.
Bummer spite.. don't think I'll make it this year two more weeks to go
paige ill brb
ok
I am sorry, kierlex, I have given 2 clues and I cannot think up another one for this word :(
okay, those words are just ridiculous....but that's oodles, sprite....je suis finis
Sorry to hear that, Lucky. :(
Sleep well, dick :)
sprite ah we will still have babble
and have a great day sprite
There is always babble. True!
i finally got the sp 6/24 and 5/14s
thanks again
Good Morning! Isn't it ironic that "Blog" is not a word?
i will never be able to finish one of these
sprite I am trying your st shorthand clue but cannot get the garden bit
Spungle should so be a word. Morning from a hungover matty (and possibly still squiffy)
you will, kierlex. This is a not so easy one, though, with a high amount of nonwords.
Morning matty!
'hungover' is almost there.
So it is! :D
Lucky: not a door but a .....
i have 99 left, that is the best i've done so far i think... though all the nights are blurring together =)
danger
shoooooooooooot
sorry
orry
sorry
Morning everyone!
la
a
la
la
hehe, that's 98 left, kierlex ;)
hi kittyvane
well actually i had already entered that one DOH!
hihi
Hehe, it won't accept "blog"
yet it takes some really odd words...
like the needlecase ones
I am still one 7 short. Does anyone know which one is missing? I have Ae, Da, En, Hax2, Lo, Ro, Se, St, Te, Tu, Up.
Yeah, we all agree 'blog' should be valid :)
hints for the ae words?
kierlex: something to style your hair with when you go fly.
ok got that one thanks!
i swear i have entered some of these words more than once
I sometimes have the same idea, kierlex. But perhaps we made a typo entering it?
most likely =)
is the ae 7/36 on top or bottom?
can someone please give me some clues?
paige
paige lol
Bottom one, kierliex
LOL
Hello everyone!
Hi preethi!
Hi Sprite. Hows the grid today?
aeiou
lol
Average. Some nice words, but a whole lot of unwords too.
that should be a word, aeiou
It is a word. It is what my cat used to say when he just woke up.
ok one more word and then bed 4 me
haha
How many words altogether?
210
ok
bang
morning all x 210 !! was hoping for a littly today i have so much house work to do, all these biggies this week i have achived nothing this week lol
Sorry, not really little, this one :)
Nobody who can help me out with that last 7?
i see sarah's online, but is she really???
soz just got here !!
Sprite: I just looked at the list. The other 7 is ou
phooey, I wanted pagoda to be there
Forelica, i log on AM and remain signed on all day, even though i amy not be at the system x
yeah, that be the question.
Thanks, SummerBreeze! *goes hunting for that one* Uncagain: I agree, and how beautifully did you put that... babblishous!
yeah, i am actually here. i have been logged on all day though.
wahoo!!
i'm so tired though. i think i'll last a few more minutes
did you get the message from my mom?
must...find....more....words!!! zzzzzzzzzz
yep
i hope it works out
yeah, me too. i have 78 left
I keep seeing "stupid" in the grid
wow. i'm still at 109 left
what letter does the needlecase start with?
e
E, Gwen.
and there's a plural of it in there too
thanks
Kittyvane I keep seeing spaghetti!!!! Its blocking my vision.....
i keep seeing spug
or spugle... that sounds like a musical instrument covered in spit
:) I keep seeing stupid too. i tried that one kierlex.
mmmm...
Like a spugle horn?
Spurgle sounds like what you do when you're surpised and your drink sprays out of your mouth
and doughnut. which makes me hungry
this is the second mention of doughnuts today. i think its a sign.
Eek kierlex! Ok, for the stupidhead words department: there is Ou4/7 and Ou6/16, for changeling or simpleton, usually spelled a lot simpler. They are alt. spellings of eachother, not a plural.
perhaps it is...krispy kreme, here i come!
Doughnuts. What an excellent idea!
can i have a hint for one of the bottom e words so i can go to bed because it is midnight thirty and i cant think
haha half-cooked ooey gooey goodness.
i got nothin' kierlex. but i see you're in the pacific time zone!
gosh I love Krispy Kreme... if only we had it here in Finland
mmmm. that sounds so goooood.
changeling or simpletom?
yeppers, in Idaho
bummer kitty. we just got ours recently. i totally overdosed on them for awhile there.
Es6/18 landed property. Ep4/6 ancient Hebrew unit of dry measure, equal to a tenth of a homer or about one bushel (35 liters)
I've ODed on them every time we've been to NYC
yeah. the whole thing about them not being where you live is half the sppeal
appeal
like sonic. they're all over the midwest and none here. i LOVE sonic.
sppeal is the word when you say appeal with watering mouth, I think.
yep. and waffle house. mmmmm.... greasy.
sprite do you have the bottom right e's?
what was it you said earlier about a waffle wrapped around something?
i had some puff pancakes with lingonberry and butter the other day ago and it was SO GOOD
One is a big bird, kierlex, the other wants badly.
hehe. homer wraps a waffle (that he cooks with liquid smoke among other things) in a stick of butter and eats it like a hotdog
Can you guys stop talking FOOD! Darn, I am getting HUNGRY! :D
haha
hey everyone it is addie's birthday today!!
sorry sprite. it's all i know... :)
LOL!
like 'i want a donut so bad that i could EEGUAOIHIEE?
I'm hungry too, thus I talk about food
maddie's*
happy birthday
five bucks if you can name this line sarah "its all i have!!"
how old?
Maddie! May you live long and prosper!
damnit. i don't know, but josh keeps repeating it... :)
sprite, i got both e's, THANK YOU
yw :)
why isn't blog a word?!?!?
why is unlog not a word?
james' favorite line from robin hood. mine's "and keep the stitches small."
I was just lamenting that too Pine
yeah, and relog is not a word either
ok i am going to bed. nite allllllll
Lego isn't a word either
Good night!
I'm laughing so hard i can't see. josh just said his is "because it's dull you twit, it'll hurt more"
yep. "i'll cut your heart out with a spoon!!"
i love alan rickman :)
me too. he's a wierdo
like me!
grr, a very nice 10 letter word, that is not found in the stupid dictionary
conan's on. he's wierd. love him
goes with the at 6/21
conan is one of the rare unanimated people that makes me laugh out loud when i'm alone
he was just making his hair move independently from his head...
That's me gone for today, fireworks :) Happy hunting all and see you tomorrow.
i know. that's totally amazing.
tah tah!
Well done Sprite!
"jar barf..."
jar barf, beautiful
i want to do that!!!!
i've officially stopped looking. i think i should focus my attention to conan
yeah, me too. goodnight. see you sunday if not before!
night!
hi veery1
r paige and maddie here
hello
Good morning all. Dr_God is making us work hard again...
no1 here
except me
hi haz :)
Good morning Atalante - I never did get back to finish yesterday's so hopefully I might get on better today. How are you?
Good Morning, Hazel, Paige, Maddie, Atalante. Just arrived to copy out the grid. Not sure how much, if any I'll do today as it's my son's 22nd birthday and we're off out for lunch etc.
looking after an unhappy spaniel! Its pouring down with rain so she doesn't want to go for a walk - she hates *wet* - so she's running around trying to get rid of energy and pestering me!
Good morning Jacula - happy birthday to son! And Atalante - a spaniel that hates the wet? Is that not unusual?
Spaniels are 'supposed' to be water dogs. LOL.
she's an unusual dog LOL. she hates bad weather - refuses to go out on windy or rainy days. *sigh*
and I mean *refuses*. digs her heels in and refuses to move out of the front door
i hate my brother
he is so annoying
She IS unusual, then! Spangle deliberately heads for puddles and letting her off the lead anywhere near a river is asking for trouble.
Oh dear! I'd better watch how much I eat at the carvery this lunchtime... The first two words I've spotted are hu4/8 & hi4/6! :(
Hobbit likes puddles when she's actually out, but that's about it. She occasionally ventures into the sea up to about tummy level, but if there's waves, she runs away!
Morning all, just popped in to see if I am playing today. I eventually started yesterdays when I found out that the evenings TV was dominated by football and cricket! Didn't finish though
egm - I believe brothers are mean to be annoying. He's just fulfilling his purpose in life. *grins*
Not a happy combination, Jacula! Good morning ex-Wren - so are you playing today?
*meant to be annoying. Sorry, I haven't had my cup of tea yet. Brain's not functioning.
but he alway has sumting to say back at me
Morning, ExWren.:)
Still debating. It's raining so I won't be gardening - perhaps
Will this rain ever end do you think?
don't think so
Kent is underwater
its not raining in adelaide
you're in adelaide? lucky you!
Send some of that rain our way, it's still too dry over here, pollen and dust all over the place!
We are leaving for a break on Sunday, and was hoping for some decent weather, not much hope so far. We are only going down to the Isle of Wight!
Good morning Kitty - we would if we could!
hey egm
its only really cold in adelaide
hi jess
I just vacuumed and dusted yesterday, and it's dust bunies the size of our cat here already
Good morning Kitty. Congratulations on winning the Eurovision Song Contest. Well, not you personally, but Lordi for your country.
Thank you, all of us finns are still a little stunned over it
Kitty - I think they're great.
they are
do you know Carrington St in Adelaide, egm? Used to live there for a while :)
i hav to go bcoz callum the gay has to go on
a friend of mine was actually their first keyboardist, she left the band last summer
cya jess
and the other people
cya
Kitty - bet she's kicking herself now!
not really, she didn't get along too well with some of the band members and she's glad to be rid of them
And think of having to wear those masks all the time!
she's the kind of gal who would see going to the Eurovision as being against the band's image
she only had a half mask
Yes. Is it true that they never appear in public without the masks. They ARE masks, aren't they?? LOL.
Yup, they don't want to show their real faces in public, as that would take away from the image of the band, make them seem ordinary
and yes, they are masks :D they design and make them themselves
Kitty. I can see you friend's point about the band's image re entering the Eurovision but them doing so, and winning, may well bring about a long-needed change (for the contest).
I sure hope so, the skirts were getting way too short and the songs way too boring and dull
The voting is my favourite bit. Where do they find the cheesy hosts?
It's time Sweden stopped trying to find another ABBA. It won't happen.
Haz - I miss Katie Boyle with her 'French' scoring and her poodle. LOL.
my favourite bit was Wogan's narrating of the competiton (I watched it on BBC)
I remember dear Katie as well. We're showing our age. And yes, Kitty, Terry doesn't hold back, does he?
our narrators went speechless as the voting unfolded
and by the end they were just screaming and whooping :)
Hi all,
There were some very strang songs/ideas this year. The woman from the Ukraine sounded to be singing, ' Show me your butt' and 'Shoot Felix every day'. (!) The Turkish woman reminded me of Brigitte Nielson as Red Sonja. Lithuania were taking the p**. Latvia's song was plain weird. Spain's song was strange. Germany went country with their version of Dolly Parton. Denmark were singing about The Twist but were breakdancing (?). Russia had a woman trapped in a piano and the UK decided that a rubbish rap song wouldn't be noticed if they dressed woman up as schoolgirls to dance around.
I'm just trying to forget the desaster that was eurovision.
Hi Ishult.
Hello Ishult
at the half way mark today, but have only 3 7's & noyhing bigger
... and I might be able to type properly once I'd drunk some tea. LOL.
Ever since the woman from Turkey won with her expanding ribbon corset, they've been trying to be ultra-clever with costumes.
I'm trying to forget the Eurovision too, but it's impossible what with them talking about on telly all the time!
*or even I've drunk some tea.
oooh, having a bit of a typing desaster today
Ishult - You're not alone!
Right - have to go but will be back later.
'Bye Haz.
the cleaver euro costumes startrd way back with Bucs Fizz!!
Oh, the ripped off skirts. Remember that!
bucks fizz were fab!
the russian entry this year was just mind-boggling. did anyone understand the woman-in-piano?
My vote for the Worst Song this year went to Croatia.
Atalante, shouldn't say that too loud!!!
the one that ripped off her skirt this year really did end up showing too much :)
BUCKS FIZZ WERE FAB! I don't care LOL they were better than anything this year *laughs*
Atalante - I couldn't work out where the rest of her body was she must have been in agony
Hi Katie. As Terry Wogan said, 'It was a legs year'.
I know! poor girl!
maybe she was legless :)
Hi Jacula - it certainly was, the one in the bikini was amazing
apparently the song had the same themes as the ballet Giselle, so they put some ballerinas on stage... although that doesn't explain the ger in the piano
I thought that the best song won, if only for being something different, and the makeup was fantastic
apparently it was very existentialist. or something
I'm sooo glad Finland won. the song was awful - sorry kitty - but they completely deserved to win for being different and a breath of "fresh" air
the song is awful! that's the point of it
The song was virtually Alice Cooper's 'Poison' but the band deserved to win.
Now you are all judging it on normality, cast your mind back to Saturday and how bad all the others were and in that light the song was quite good :)
lol yes! some were truly appalling
I think it's nice that the band went there to have fun and to shake things up and then to everyone's surprise won!
As soon as I heard Lordi I said, 'Yes! That's the winner for me!' I was just amazed that all the other countries agreed. I was so pleased when they won. I love rock and all it's theatre.
It's nice to see the fun back in music.

Mornin' all!
Look! Our love-to-hate-it dictionary's in the grid!
Morning amanda I noticed that and its pl although I am not playing yet today.
How can you look at the grid and not play, Mitch? I couldn't do it
Hi Amanda
Hi Preethi
Cos I ahve some deadlines to meet today and money is a great incentive ;)
Good morning everyone!
anyway just popped in to say Hi, will be back a bit later. Hi and by Eva.
Morning Eva! Understand Mitch - but I'd have to close the window, otherwise I wouldn't be able to word
goer
loge
is there a te5/14???
gtg
sorry bout that
someone mentioned one, Dave, but I haven't found it if it's there
not in lickety's list and i need one more
davetins, i cannot find it either
Does that mean there's one missing from lickety's list?
i've been trying everything but i cannot find that te5,14. been looking for almost 30 minutes
morning, does anyone have a clue for the ro 8 yet, my last big one.x
davetins, I have both the t's done, and there's no te5/14
Yes, I have checked all mine and have them all
how many words total?
Good morning - back again for another go.
210 total
heya Haz :)
then i have them all too. there's no te5,14
Hi Haz! - 210?! thought maybe we'd have a smaller one finally...
Lickety's list says 211
I think Dr_God is trying to give us value for money or something!
this is awesome
carolecs ro8/50 - ro 4/6 + think about ending of adjectives when you want to say most
ro8/50.. the most ro4/6 (diseased).
i have to say. one crossword dictionary gives a word "tengu" but it won't accept it
clue for ro 4?
which ro4, preethi? the 4/6 is a poultry disease.
Thanks guys, finally got it.x
roug
I'm done... have fun everyone :)
bye trish!
Hi all..not supposed to be babbling...hubby waiting for me to load the car to go away for the weekend but please can someone help me with the 2nd ha5/12 that comes after the combo that relates to nooses thanks
hey guys can i hav some clues
ha + what a bullfighter shouts
caitlyn, it is the word Hawaians use for mainlanders
Thanks both got it!!Better go on holiday now then.have a great weekend all bye
Have fun, caitlyn!
Bye caitlyn, enjoy your holiday!
Hey you Brits - what exactly is a b6/30 that you eat with ... um, what *do* you eat them with?
hi, i need a ha5/12. the 2nd one. anyone please?
What is the second letter amanda?
ha5/12-alt spelling of not likingn someone
ba6/30 - + mash, I think
The ba6/30 is another way of saying sausage!
i think it is the other one i'm missing, eva.
Ah - now I know!
what do you know Amanda?
what british ba6/30 is, Eva
oh-I've been assuming the sausages?
Just to be confusing it can also be a firework or an old car.
Onpaki - are you looking for the hawaiian word for white guys?
er, i'm not sure. haha.
thanks amanda. Always forget that one
But most people wouldn't eat those for breakfast, would they, Haz?
If they value their health they wouldn't eat any type of banger for breakfast - at least not every day!
I wouldn't have gotten the ha either, but someone clued it before. It's ha + a bullfight word, Onpaki
oh tks!
ha + 4 letter spread without the last letter
does anyone have a clue for the 9? I have a sinking feeling that it must be an re and I am congenitally blind to those
mmmm.... doesn't recognies the abbreviated web log word. whats up with that?
It's an st, Eva--I'm just starting those
oh good-not an re!
st9/66 - combination of two words - can be spoken out
thanks much haz!!
You're welcome, Eva.
st5/10 + ab 4/6
what about second letter clues for the 8's I'm missing: I have: ha8/55 & ro8/50
There's ha8/60 as well
HI, can't find the st5 that starts the st9, may I have a clue please
You live in a country which unites lots of them
@Peri: is it 50 or 51 in america?
thank youHaz, - we have 50
haz- a clue for that ha8/60? Is it a compound?
Haz, does ha8/60 start with the noose?
ha 8 60 does start w/ noose
nvm - got it: it's where the t4/8s l6/27 around
It starts with the noose and ends by becoming a place where you would gather to relax.
ha 8/60 = places for teens
Thanks haz & kate!
Hello Everyone, just popping in to say hi
so, the other 8 is???
so - Hi!
hi lickety!
Hi Lickety!
Hello lickety - how are you?
ha 4/4 + ab 4/6
tu8/55 which I haven't got yet.
Re words are Ha 8/55
I'm great! And hope you all are too. Love the doggi photos
a piano is tu8/55
got it-like the ha8-same ending
and the st/9
this great is purely ha8,55
ooops, grid I meant. Gotta go, have fun!
Bye lickety -short and sweet visit today!
hi every1
Done--appropriately my last word was st 5/14--which is how I feel after sturggling to find it!
Well done kateq - and hello egm.
i need help
Any clues before I'm off?
Have a great Friday everyone!
evening all, hope every one is well
egm - have you got what a bee did?
Bye Kateq!
Hi Rlee
Hiya, everyone!!!! Well, there's no mistaking who I've chosen for my icon today, so don't even bother guessing.....
the heavy street lingo is there
Don't forget some of us need glasses MM
Good morning everybody! I'm back from my frantic race to work....just an hour early. It's a long story which involves, the power going out...me resetting the clocks....did't have my glasses...you get the idea
heavy street lingo, Eva? Morning gramma!
hi gramma-take some long deep breaths. There must be lightning or something going on somewhere down the line because it isn't rainy or windy, but we had a momentary power loss too
amanda-you probably have it already-obese ph word
Ah, yep had that one
vowels are ha8!
I ha**It will be a long deserved weekend to start my day this way. Just on a dead run, yelling at my honey, OMG it's 8 !
61 left. Not bad for the first sweep through, but now Merp is harassing my sleeping partner. I don;'t like rewarding him for this behavior, completely lame operant conditioning, but otherwise he'll go on and on so he wins. Kitty breakfast time.
...what about the other two ph's?
They're what it sounds like when the power goes out!
help with the st9?
eva--my cats annoyed me through the night...turns out i forgot to leave them more food before i went to bed last night...
ummm, what does dark sound like?
It's a combination of two words which together form 'can be spoken out'
dinoshadow, sorry I don't have it
Sorry amandacath - it's probably more apt to describe the other ph words as sound-alike words for a candle being put out.
Morning, all... blog is invalid, eh?
ph plus the start of Salt Lake City st5
Aha - got it. Thx, Haz!
you're welcome, amanda!
Dr. God - HENGE is a wonderful word...
...especially for the Art History majors.
Good Morning Jera, Good Morning All.. here's a little sunshine on a cloudy day. (-:
Morning Jera! How are you feeling today?
Thank you Aloyisius! I was wondering if my connection was bad... or if the grid was really bad!
Morning Aloy!
Thx, Aloyisius - I could certainly use some sunshine!
Howdy, Broll...
How's your wrist, Broll?
OH! on the st9
Slowly getting better. Hard to type with this stupid brace on! Just trying to get 100 words in after 5:30 airport run.
Then I'm going to catch some zzzz's.
Well, I'm trying to catch some "g's" right now.. heehee
dino - st9=st5/10+ab4/6.....
Movieman! Nice to see you... love your icon!
I got it movieman - hence the OH!
Jera, feeling any better?
Okay - the rain has eased off so I'll take the dog for a walk. There are some good Scots and Irish words today. lo5/18 is the Irish version of a loch, and ha5/20 is a low-lying Scots meadow. Both words are good for clearing the throat! Be back later.
Over original problem but still very tired... going to doctor today if I can get out of my driveway!
I'll take anything I can get!
Hiya Jera - yep, today would have been "The Duke's" 99th birthday......
Jera, I know the weather's wonky, but don't tell me you're snowed in!
I already had the ha, but thanks for the lo clue!
Nothing so simple, amanda... construction... they are paving my driveway today!
The Duke, movieman? I se Gandalf for you... guess I need to refresh!
Jera - cluez for the ha8 plz......
I don't have the ha8... it was the ha6 I was referring to... sorry to get you all excited...
ah, my throat's clear, thanks to Haz
There are 2 h8's, MM...one is where teens go, one is what teens can often be
Amanda - do they both begin with the ha4/7.....
no MM, one with ha4/7 and one with ha4/5
wow - very close to getting hieroglyph in todays' puzzle...
one does, one with ha4/5
oooo I like your pic, beth!
Well, that's 100 for me... off to get the household running... back later!
Later, Jera..
hets
whoops.. sorry
Good luck on the driveway, Jera!
Got 'em, ty amanda......

hanger
ayup
I don't believe it!
and again
sorry... I'm moving the cursor now...
Maybe, we should suggest to Dr_God that after any typing in the chat box, the cursor defaults back to the word box?
how many words are there...lost stat panels
cingy - 210
Hi... there are 3 tu4/5 right? I'm missing one...
Excellent suggestion, Charm!
good suggestion charm
hey not just me today
thanks movieman
i agree charm wouldnt catch me doing it : )
grace - do you have the fishy one.....
my absolute favorite scrabble/ babble word is in the grid today, speaking of tu 4/5
mm-- yep. and the one you do to a piano.
do you have the one that means "conjugal sheep relations"? (i'm not kidding about this one)
charm - that's already been suggested to him
Atalante, no luck, eh?
sheep realtions? No...
me neither
grace - there's a tu7, extention of the tu4/5 piano one.....
grace - there's a tu7, extention of the tu4/5 piano one.....
do you want a clue grace or cingy? i didn't want to give it away!
abe, that must not be your favorite, as it is a 4/6
Sadly, I've read enough bad novels to have seen that sheep relations one.....
i dont get it movie man...ima blonde
you are right aloyisious...it's a 4/6 i just got so excited to see it in t he grid. the first time i saw what it meant i laughed for like a half an hour . i didn't think there was a word for that!
I've got tu4/6 and 4/7... missing one of the 3 tu4/5
Grace - do you have the tu7/40 I just suggested?
mm-- yep.
explain
---grace
The tu7 means being ab4/5 to be tu**d.......
well, in Scrabble we often don't know the meaning of the word, but if it is a good hook... hey, it is a good word!
ok abe, clue for me about sheep smut. being of scottish ancestry, you'd think i'd know it lol
lol bonkler. it sounds like a word for a baby doggie
that's our word abe- sheep smut:)
no, no luck. he says its too hard to do, charm
it must be the very first one grace, before the fish - I haven't got it yet, but I'm guessing it's some kind of polynesian currency or something
bluephlox! i'm excited to see you here!
i'm working from home today- craziness
I guess we'll just have to be vigilant, Atalante. yeah. right.
bluephlox and i did have a big laugh over that word once...
i give uo.
i'm sleepy though. we saw a midnight showing of xmen
*up*
the first tu4/5? they are New Zealand birdies
abe, does it start with a tee
how was it?
yes bonkler
Got it - I was close. It's a new zealand bird
better than i thought since they changed directors- i had a lot of fun watching it- some bits were cheesy but i didn't mind.
got it-- thnx!
im gonna go now
abe is so excited about it
good morning babblers all
thanks abe, i'll never look at mutton the same!

Did you get me e-mail last night?
anyone got the nu6/21?
I got the one about brownie uniforms.
Did you get the one about my grievous error?
Our server is being upgraded> it was supposed to be back up at 3AM but still isn't
OH yeah --- real smart!
nvm - found it. Brownie uniforms?
amanda, could you tell me how many 6s or 7s there are in the Ls?
amanda - my mom tried to go get Hannah's Brownie uniform yesterday but they were out of shirts.
Uniforms for my neice, musicmom's daughter
BGL was going to look where she is
Oh, I guess that was in response to the e-mail, not the nu6/21 - I was confused
Why isn't blog a word?
i just asked the same question, BGL!
sorry amanda
Sorry for the confusion...
blog is technically an abreviation
Old dictionary
<G>
and this dictionary smells
amand - nu: think Ninja Turtles, and play around with the m word
no prob! I remembered the nu as soon as I'd asked. It's one that shows up quite often
ogle
Jimmy Buffet on the Today show!
Thanks, broll...

Off to the office - hopefully BRB! ;)

Horrible, there was a car coming up the street and I had to wait for it to pass! The nerve of some people...
hehehee LOL
bye bonkler
don't they know you NEED to get to work?
Especially today, Snady's mom is having surgery in Pitts. and I have to run the bulletins and announcements!
BGL - please, please, please tell me you live next door to work and you didn't drive!
BTW, keep Sandy and her mom in your prayers
I really want to get down under 100 words before I crack tthe list but I've hit a wall at 123.
I don't know -- sounds like a really busy day BGL. And I definitely will.
Me too...
Amanda - she lives across the street in a very small town. Not a bad commute
Amanda, it take me longer to drive. I mean you have to start the car and everything! ;)
going for a second cup of coffee and change the laundry. be back in a few.
so has anyone heard from Aussieme? isn't today the big day? (not that she'd be babbling today, I s'pose)
I think by time zones she should have had the baby already.
hmmmm wonder what that 3rd l6 is......
the 2nd and 3rd L6!!
Good for you, BGL - last time i was home my mom drove 1/4 around the block from one store to the other. Drives me crazy (in both senses!)
atalante, one of them is the plural of the thing a jeweler uses-or a french, feminine wolf.
atalante, one of them is the plural of the thing a jeweler uses-or a french, feminine wolf.
then theres another one chaise l____
awwww! I didn't realise female wolves were allowed as well!
l6's are: french kings, rec room, magnifying glasses
oh pfff I *always* forget that french king is allowed!
tx eva and amanda!
thnks for the king amanda
yw!
thanks amandacath long live amandacath!
20 to go
viva le roi!
why can't spunge be a word?
it's a lovely word
and not blog either?!
there are3 l//6 and 1l/7
I nominate legband as a word.
I'm back
wanna make globe!!!
I want to make bungle
i don't know how many l 6 words there are
and I want to make handbag!
I tried logband, as well, Aloy - what else to you tie logs together with?
i have where the lizards are and the things jewlers use
you're missing the french kings, jbp
absolutely, amanda!
oh, that's 21. ok
is there anyother one?
3x6, 1x7 for the L's
thx amandacath
I think legoer (one who plays with legos) should be a word
LOL BGL
and isn't a small noodle a spaghette?
bgl --i agree
ga4/7 the 3rd please anyone it haunts me forever
french kings --- as in the name?
amanda --lol
i only have stare and holes for the ga 4/7
does anyone have any o inspiration to pass on? I only have 5 out of the 12!
musicmom, yes the name
ga plus what the start of what U in USA stands for
yes, musicmom the ga4/7 is a non-word - like sickly-looking - last letter
I obviously don't know how to spell:-)
to look longingly at in a sexcrazed way
done with the g's!
for the o words
did you add the prefix meaning "not", jbp?
BBL..
AHA!
thanks all ga's done
aloyisius... for trhe o's?
pees
have that one jbg,in all its forms...and the should ones, and the not in one
Sorry wrong place
ah, got it alyo...
oooo - the o's are ugly, Eva - 4 of them are to do things more than someone else (took me a while to realize what the words actually were after I'd monkeyed them)
gu 5/16 anyone?
amandacath... do things more?
thought I'd tried those amanda, but with your engouragement-back to the grid
I mean gu 5/16 the 2nd
gu5/15 - add a beverage sounding letter then a shortened form of thanks - latin plural for the 6.
when you go bowlin' your ball lands in the ... (+ lat pl)
I give up - sp6/24 and 5/14, anyone?
thanks haz --amandacath, that only works if you have a jersey accent. ;-)
found 3 so far amanda
Haz arn't you talking of the gu 6/27? I have that one
gu5/16 is the singular of the gu6/27.
amanda-have the 3 consuming ones. Clue for the 4th?
vision, Eva
gee did not see it thanks haz
well, it doesn't like winning a pissing contest(-:
No problem, lucky.
gl 6/27 my last g please anyone
pl of the 5/16, Lucky
thanks amanda, but if you can o__ vision someone, why not o__piss?!
gl6/27 - g plus lo5/12
stillmissing 3 o's
who knows Eva, same reason you can't re-, de-, and un- so many things, I suppose
thanls for the gl ones Haz
There are 2 o's that sound like what you say when you trip over something...?
sp6/24 - resort specialising in water treatments, then male personal pronoun with an extra e.
You've got to be kidding - that's so not ever never a word!
Haz gl 6/27 dont get it I have both the lo5/12 and they do not fit the gl
i agree w/ amandacath!!!
The sp5/14 is similar but ends in 1 vowel.
g plus the equivalent of th4/8
well those were tremendously weird!
that one either! Thx haz, would have had to go to a2z for that one
it rhymes with the trendy fish that has the same name twice
lucky - it's gl plus the last lo5/12
This is one of those grids I don't like - too many really wierd words
thanks haz!
Hiya, everyone!!! I'm back!!!!!!!
st7/40?
I agree amanda. I'm just glad there isn't an s in the lower right hand corner -we'd have twice as many words by the plurals that could be made
Finally greyed my D! I hate when I miss normal words
great clue BGL - I just greyed mine too. Greyed my n as well. 99 words left
hi, movieman
Hi Movieman
work is getting in the way of my Babble playing...
severe fatigue is getting in my way. I am physically and mentally drained after yesterday.
st7/40 - **** gun + expression of disgust
atalante... i don't get it
I repeat what I said before - thx, tho, Ata
its a really really hard word to clue for *thinks*
atalante-I keep trying the only exppression of disgust I see there-u__ and it doesn't work
is the disgust expression like what a sheep says?
ok. abbreviation for street + abbreviation for the language we're writing now + 1st vowel + consonant
thats a bit of a better clue I *think*
AHA! Not a st** gun.
much better! But once again-that's a word?!
wrong vowel
aaarrrh.. i'm so confused,
yeah, sorry, musicmom, I didnt realise there were 2 guns in there till I'd done the clue!
ba4/7, anyone? Or ba5/16?
41 left...this is a real slog. Time for human breakfast
whts the gun?
ba 4/7 to beat the ba++
ok--i'm guessing the st 9/40 begins with the st 5/10 before it, but i can't come up with the ending. clue, please?
I'm about to take a break too Eva.
ktf - ba4/7=Thai unit of currency.....
oops, i meant the 9/66
ba4/7 - unit of currency - reverse the last letters of where you wash yourself, then pluralise for the 5
ktf-I think the are asian units of currency-think b__ humbug for the beginning
Cheers everyone!
book --- if it is something that can be announced it is st9
Lucky my Mum's been to Thailand *g*
Yeah! my b is grey
thanks, musicmom
ha 5 12 ?. not the third one of the group
Have to go take the dog to the groomers. Will be back later.
All these "can be done" words are killing me!
see you all later
bye haz

Thank goodness no, shanna!
shanna - 24 hours. the grid flips at 12 am CST
st 9/66... you guys are way obscure
24 hours? what fun is that? GEEZ!
shanna - see if you can find 210 words in that time:-))

ha5/12's: dislikes spelled wrong, hawaiian word for white guys

kiwi? ;-)
No, I meant we could slap with a tu4

OHHHH I get it --- told you I was sleepy
What did you do yesterday?
yw - the te's pleeeeeeeeezzzzzzz, they're my last two and I'm near tears!
no tears!
Although I don't have the New Zealand bird... it's a tu4?
Went to the Honors Assembly where Sarah got a trophy, met greg for lunch, went to walmart for celebration supplies, went to the other side of town to hear my piano student play in the school talent show, taught three KM classes--- all end of semester classes which are celebrations. All this in high heat and humidity and no one was running air conditioning because the temp spiked over night.
yes that bird is a tu4/5
Wow! And you didn't do yesterday's grid among all that?
brb
Good morning all! Does anyone have a clue for the up7?
jen - up+st5/10.....
You might go to up****** NY
i'm still working on the bird (and no, that's not a euphemism for something)
Pass the fish, thanks! (great icon, BTW movieman! I loooove the Duke!)
Hi Jen!
which te's do you want aman
Hi amanda! :)
YW, Jen and thanks, the great man would have been 99 today.......
te5/14 and 6/21 - I've tried everything except the right thing
Morning everyone
hi munner! How's the son doing?
We actually made a pilgrimage to his home in Winterset, Iowa! Our son is named for his character in The Searchers
Two kidneystones discovered, but the troublesome one moved so he was sent home after a blessed dose of morphine. How are you today?
I'm back --- Greg called to see if he should get movies for the weekend.
No I did not attempt yesterday with everything else going on:-))
It's a good thing too because my brain was fried by the time I got home.
Fine, thanks, 'cept my last two words are being naughty and hiding from me, which is very annoying
Already down to just 2 words?
i'm monkeytyping like the wind, amandacath, but as yet to no avail..
the 6 is the number of fingers plus the united states with a vowl in the middle
eath
Sorry, sorry. Hyacinth would never have done that!
thanks GRIM!
Munner - Sorry don't get the job done, dude!!!!
Great, Grim - thx! So maybe Lickety's list is off? He's got 211 words...
so what is my penance, movieman?
*hoping that's the answer to my te5/14 problem*
the other one is when you drink yourself into it.
Munner - I was just quoting the great man......
his list is correct
Indeed he was the great one
I'm going to take a break for a little while, then come backand see if I can finish anymore without the list. 92 left to go.
sorry, i have fireworks on 210 words
te --when you drink yourself into it?
hooray for grim!
Good job Grim!
stupor?
tanks
I drink myself into a stupor, so that's not it - ooh, ooh - does that mean there's no te5/14? *this discussion came up earlier btw, but it wasn't cleared up*
sorry!
Im stuck on the A on the 4th row have 6 of the 7 needed any clues
its what it sounds like
amanda was just passing and saw yr comment. unless lickety ahs amended his list from this morning ther is a phantom te5/14 in there
I am feeling so stupid today!!!! un6/27?
when you can't
Jen
Ok, then I guess I'm finished with 210. And am signing off as well, otherwise I'll stay way too long like yesterday! Have fun, all!
Jen - when you can't do something, you are un****.....
bye amanda
have a good one, amanda
Pass the fish again! Thanks
With today's theme, I just noticed "unger" which reminded me of another of favorite sitcoms, The Odd Couple
bye amandacath
are there any ph words?
I have one, a 4
3 ph words
i have a slangy one that means Fab
munner, is that hyacinth
Ah, back to finish (hopefully)..
Annie, it is!
Mrs. Bookay, the lady of the house speaking
Let me tell you about my son, Sheridan.
isnt it Bucket Annie
Poor Liz
Would you all like to come to my next candlelight supper?
yes, Babble but Hyacinth being Hyacinth wants the French pronunciaton.
Poor Richard! Can you imagine being married to Hyacinth?
In that case, annie, she pronounces her surname Bouquet......
No, absolutely not.
the driving scenes always made me laugh
moring babblers
yes, I was doing it phonetically.
goodmorning, alien
if one can be present somewhere, why can't attendable be a word?
And Daisy trying to lure Onslow
I love it when there is a marathon day and I get to see my favorites along with some I've missed.
im surprised red dwarf has not been mentioned today
In that case, Babbledude, please refresh now!!!!!
haha smoke me a kipper i'll be back for breakfast
life is calling, bbl
Or, Babbledude, you could refresh again!!!!!
steady on Movie it took long enough the 1st time lol oh Smeg
why isn't blog accepted?
Babbledude - it's nice to know there's another Dwarfer playing today......
clues on the ph ones?
The others are just closet dwarfers
aren't we all
ph - p + little grass dwelling
jpb - ph's....ph4/5=street slang for great that sounds overweight, and the other ph4 change the vowel and pluralise.....
munner, i think blog is an abbreviation maybe?
thanks movieman. i just found the biblical one. and thx for the plural. now there's just one more

BGL: a rich person may live on a big es****
Fish please...

BGL, aren't you supposed to be working?
Good job, ouwachita

Good job, Aloyisius

*looking round for dr_god"
rolin - email sent already
hmm, clothes, why are you so angry?
excellent hurshy...hey...i retold your rescue of the school kids..to my headteacher today..she hurried off to our it rooms..lol
*helps rolin look*
BLOG is not a WORD????
its an abbreviation, sadly
not like they would take weblog either though - too new
Not in newer dictionaries, Jaime.
right, but here.
i like your icon hurshy
ty abe :)
ah - the facts of life - classic
sigh. Blogs are my life, and Dr_God has decided they don't exist. :-(
one my early faves. it was between facts and one day at a time
doc doesn't control the dictionary, he borrows it.
i knew a jfarber way back when...
he chooses it, hursh.
Krys: bet it's me. :-) Newton, MA?
how the hell did you end up here? and how the hell are you?
LOL. Should we do this in public?
and aren't you supposed to be teaching right now, just like me?
can some one tell m if the 'u' words are negatives..un's..?
let's let the board decide: folks, any opinion on whether Krys and I should reconect in this space or go provate somewhere to do it?
i only have 2 so far rolin but one of them is like that.
3 uns, 1 up
i don't mind if you reconnect here :)
that's one vote for voyerism...anyone else?
i don't know jfarber, it might cost you some clues :)
me either.. how cool, an unexpected reunion. But alas, I must go and get the poor dog a bone..
ooh, bartering clues for gossip - things *have* changed around here!
depends how long yr postings are going to be and if you really want to bear all in front of the unknown masses.
I think it will be fun to witness your reunion...especially if clues are invoved
Okay, I got nothing to give yet, but here goes:
Ijust started playing, so I have nothing to clue about.
For the public: Krys and I grew up together (I'm technically younger, sadly), connected at a time in our lves when we needed a person...
and were once in a band called, I believe, twelve stupid thieves. If one rehearsal in PJ's basement counts as a band.
aaaww...
oh, geez... the dog will have to wait...
I worked in a bakery and he drove an air-conditioned van.. it was a natural fit
and now you're both babblers!
Krys: you're in CA now, yes? Been a while...
And now we MIGHT both be teachers, too -- Krys, you still teaching?
I hear soap opera music and am seeing an 80s montage
I left the prep school world for a big house in the ruburbs of rural Mass and a middle school job this past year.
moved to Cali and taught HS math for five years. quit, went to grad school, got my MSW, cobbled together part-time jobs while tutoring to make ends meet.
hooray for the brady bunch!!!
so, how many years has it been?
quit social work after two years because tutoring paid better and was more fun. have been self-employed small business owner ever since.
Heh. Realizing that many of my fondest memories of Krys may not be appropriate for public consumption.
Small busines? Do tell: product?
Last email I got from jfarber was in 1996
Been...Jeez, almost a decade? My tenth wedding anniversary is this Aug, so I HOPE it was at least that. :-p
sounds about right.
(this is what I get for using my real name as a babbleuser, eh?)
no, tutoring. where in Mass. did you end up? Also I've been married for three years, with J for six.
In MONSON -- which is an unheard of tinytown near Ware (where?) and teaching in nearby Wilbraham, home of Friendly's restaurant.
you had just gotten married when you last emailed
Friendly's! My favorite childhood place.
I've heard of Ware. Glad you're still teaching
Now I have TWO little girls, own two acres and a lawn, dog and cat...mortgage and everything. Feels oddly adult.
Me, too -- this past summer the four of us were homeless after the prep school cut instructional department and kicked us out of school-owned housing.
i was wondering if you have little ones... we are making plans. in the meantime I still have a red-headed cat who's been with me 11 years.
my goodness, that must have been exciting
Glad to hear you're tutoring, actually -- I'd say you were always at your best 1:1, but that might not sound...appropriate.
nope, it wouldn't sound appropriate at all, you rascal
Little ones are cute, and the littler -- 13 months -- weighs only 17 pounds. She's a redhead too.
not surprised :)
Exciting? Well...going to job interviews while tyraveling campsite to campsite was different, to say the least.
(everyone's just watching us, right? This is pretty funny.)
Okay~ just catching up... Friendly's was my first job. I was a waitress and fountain worker!
yes. it is good, please go on.
What's the name of the giant bowl of ice cream? Jimmy or something?
I can't wait for the movie to come out!!!
Does anyone have the UP7? Running out of ideas. Is it a compound word?
glad to hear you're landed right side up. i do miss Friendly's.. there aren't any here on the west coast. there was a 24-hour joint near where i went to college
I got my next batch of students coming in in about five minutes, by the way -- so Krys (and others, if you like), don't miss this next thing:
Jim Dandy!
i have it - new york, not the city!
my entire life gets blogged at http://mediakit.blogspot.com -- and email can be accessed through there, or comments left to get conversations started.
that was for you minski
HUrshy~ Not just the Brady Bunch, but Brady Brides Get Married a very short lived reunion attempt
Right side up is the right word, I suppose -- though it was a LONG summer.
mmm, Jim Dandy. I always ordered it when I had a good report card :)
Thanks Hurshy. Need the fish for that one. ****insert eyes rolling smilie here*****
I'll find you there - good to run into you, babe.
You too, honey. :-) Miss you, and think about you just enough to be fond without being scary, I promise.
minski, i need two un's, i have can't do... are the others also prefixed or just happen to have un?
Don't know yet. Just getting to them. All I have is Can't do also so far.
I have very fond memories of my nearly 10 years at Friendly's
Don't forget to stop by, Krys -- or it'll be another ten years, since the odd "old friend google search" doesn't catch you!
go enlighten young minds - I'll catch you later.
it doesn't? not very good marketing for my business... *goes off to google herself*
Done and done! Thanks for humoring us, everyone. Love to Krys. Later, all -- 14 year old kids are streaming in for A lesson on web design.
oh ok minski :)
clues for the first sp5, please?
:-) you can make fun of us now that we're gone...

BGL, Are you reay to play catch?
sp6: a place you go for a facial and mudpack +the bakc of your foot- the L

blog is not a word
dane
Lunch break, whats your excuse?
ok, that was *weird* ! I need a break. and I've only found five (5) words anyway.
Wanna go to John G's game tonight? 7:00
My excuse... boredom and no one else is here.
Good morning babbler all. Ive just ben reading the charlog with the greatest of pleasure; learniing all about the life of jpfarber, whom I haven't met before. Fascinating. Welcome back, jp, and it's good to make your acquaintance, as it were. I'm happy to see someone else has used his/her real name
well, now that the reunion is over, I really must go - its been fun Babbling away the cloudy morning.. there are 5 sp's .. bye everyone..
5 sp 's hursh
sure, dinner?
ugh, i have one more then
I got chicken out, but I'm sure you could twist my arm and take me out
the un6/24 is the plural of the 5/14.
since Iwas thinking I was the ony one to do so, and it felt lonely. One thing about being a babbler--you're never lonely
and i guess it's a five...
Hey everyone... Hobious is my husband. He's responsible for my addiction and musicmom's addiction to babble
hetty - I've used the start of my name - does that count?
i think leslieann is really leslieann, hetty
I've used my initials
And my real name is Krysten
woohoo for monkeys!
Min is the beginning of my real name.
abe is what my fiance and i call each other
stateable
ooh, jeffer, you are lucky i had the 9 already
oops
Jeffer - tsk!@ tsk! :-)
Next time a word I don't have, please
seriously
if it's any cosolation that took me forever to find. i thought espunge is a word ...
I don't think it matters either way really if you use yr real name or not as a screen name.
expunge.
I tried that earlier also, jeffer
Yes, thaks everyone, I know many of you have done the modern thing (as required in many passwords) of adding numbers etc. to your real name. It's just I felt rather old-fashioned. But then I am!
ah yes, ty hurshy
hetty - people often add numbers to their usernames on other websites (larger ones) because someone has already taken the version with no numbers :)
Could I pretty please have help with the ae 7/36?
flying hair product
Hi, bunny. Haven't seen you here for awhile.
lol, thanks alot!
Abe, how do you know which one is which?
nice clue
Been pretty busy, lots of cakes, last few weeks of school. have talent shows, water day, all that good stuff.
by the way - what do you suppose happens to the words we type that don't go in the chat or in the "added" box ? are they saved as future Babble grid words?
lots of eye contact? we often get weird looks in public
I copied someone else, who copied someone else...
See ya, back to work
back :)
*dances around ata*
See this afternoon
Welcome back.
insert you where appropriate
i don't feel like working and the old hags in the office left, so now i want to just babble
off to do some chores for awhile
Minski, my mothe's name was Minnie. My father called her TONK (there's a poem about by the waters of Minnetonka..." He also used to say "The sweetest flowers that blow are mignonette" Minnie 'n' (h)et"
i'm running behind in the chat log here... everyone assumes my name is Krys because there are so many people adding random digits after their names, but I am actually doing something clever and geeky since i am actually Krysten. :P
te7?
Since I'm begging, ro 8/50 too?
i don't know why i got the 9 and lotsa 7's but no 8s!
Good for you, Krys. Lovely name
te 7 - 10 + she is more than **** to take care of herself
I'm not getting anywhere with this - too distracted and all in a dizzy about jfarber. back later.
how many left, hurshy?
I have no 8s either
33 *sigh*
ro8/55 superlative of ro4/6
well that explains why i don't have that...
didnt', rather. thanks haz.
113 - bigger sigh! & I still have to drive home when the traffic will be awful (bankholiday on Monday)
ha 8/60 - ha 4/7 + opp of in + plural
Thank you Haz
awwwww 15 here
You're welcome!
oh rats, i got the ha6/7 but didn't notice that 7/8, fish fish fish
well go off and draw then ata :)
ro8: think of a c word that babies have when they are congested...subtract the c, and add the suffix for most.
fine! if I'm not wanted here *sniffs* don't you need any more clues for 8s or something? :P
oh yes well there is that...
The other ha 8 (8/55) - opp of love + very first a word on the list
te7? please?
te 7 - 10 + the first a word
golly gee more fish. would you believe i tried tateable but not that?
yes
thanks jeffer :P
you getting a whole flock of tu4/4 today?
well for anyone who doesn't know it, i can officially state that there are no re- as prefix words today.
a school of them, ata
I need te 6/21 pls
Hurshy - I didn't even see that as an ending so I think I need the fish more.......Yeah to no re words :)
i did too, hursh, fortunately not in the log
munner - it sounds like it would be a shaky link (but it's not)
te 6/21 - spell like a game played with racket and yellow ball, add 5th vowel right in the middle instead of double cons
isnt it funny monkey typing randomly for allof your last words?
so what's the fourth 8 besides the ha's and the ro
tu
OK going to battle the traffic now. Will probably log on in about 2 hours a little more stressed with a glass of wine in hand :)
aha!
tu 8 - tu 4/5 + that a ending again
i thought i tried that before but whatever
oh *i* see i have it as a 7 but i didn't get it as an 8
speaking of 7's, i only need 2 more
thanks, bunny and hurshy
yw
st 7, 40?
*kisses jaime*
st 7 - st 5/10 + a ending again
st + abbreviation for the language we're speaking now + vowel + consonant
see you all later, i'm escaping from my job (shhh don't tell)
duh, sorry, taht was the 9
Hey guys - how many words do we have today? and is the board friend or foe?
210 - grid is decent
not getting the clue for the ro8. I have an ro4/6 that rhymes with Campbells Tomato S*** is this what should be made supperlative?
yes BGL
rou 8 - ro 4/6 + more of ending
yes BGL
Got it I was trying to make it a 7 and not an 8
so ata, are there any other weird 7's i should know about besides that st and the ae?
not really. but I'm missing 2
I think the se 7 is a bit odd...
anyclues for the te5/14 please
yay bunny, that's the one i need!
I need that too!
*facepalm* I should have got that. idiot me
se 7 - se 4/5 (like poo tank) + past tense of eat
is it science-y then?
hmm i see. well at least i had the 6.
yes lol
there was some debate earlier - is there actually a te5/14?
no there isn't
I don't have one.
and hast thou all the t's, bunny?
yes...
i need two of them
BGL, I also had trouble with ro8 till I discovered you need to add an "i"
I need 1. I need 1 of most letters - so annoying!
it seems unfair to the greeks that the hep- prefix is not as versatile
yes i agree krys
which two Hursh?
esp since i need 6 more h's
oh bunny, i don't know, listlessness is problematic that way
probably 5's. i'm bad at 5's.
yes in fact i have only one t5, a plural.
come to think of it i'm bad at everything but 4's
the other t 5 - add second vowel to end of th 4/5
me too hursh...I thought it was just me
bunny - are there are t6 or t7 coming from the first row t?
fish
no ata there are not!! :)
No
are there 2 t6's bunny?
just checking! I must be missing a 4 from there then if there are only those two 5s
hey, our dictionary is here today
ah yes. got it
just one
then i miss a 4 as well but from the other t, thanks!
te5/14?
is mythical, angel
*dance of T doneness*
WOo Hoo Hursh... how many are you down to?
24 *sigh*
I wish I knew what 7 I was missing *sigh*. and the 2 6's for that matter!
if you have ae, se, st, ata the rest are normal
I'm sure! still can't see them :P
why oh why can i never get past half way finished? I try and try - I rarely ask for hints, i don't use the list. Maybe that is it...I am not using my resources. Or, maybe I am just vocab challenged????
ae 7 , da 7, en 7, ha 7, ha 7, lo 7, ou 7, ro 7, se 7, st 7, te 7, tu 7, up 7
stilll no luck with the te5/14
oooh tx bunny! its a ha7! interesting ....
Angel, there is no te 5/14
angell, the te5/14 DOES NOT EXIST. stop looking for it!
ata, lol, that's either a singular fish or a plural fish
Angel, use BJ's list.
oh i suppose you don't have the 6/33 either
atlante, do you have the two at 6's?
well I'm missing 2 h's ...
lol yeah
wurdygurl, the lists or some resource like A2ZWordfinder can help you learn new words - when I started playing I got stuck a lot because I was pretty much stuck with the words in my own brain...
yup, got the two at6s
how bout ha 6 & 7 - ha 4/7 + opp of down, then plural
ok, I'm going to have a h6 about that word now! I thought it was 2 words
just got that one! woot!
hmmm, i miss one A from the 4th row, any weirdos?
course some people might consider some that i have weirdos...
they aren't weird, all au's I think
well bunny some are ag and some are ap...
and ae's, sorry
i have 2 ae, 3 ag, 2 ap, 3 au...
4 ag
ty
Think I'm gonna take the little bits swimmin and to grandmas, last day of school for the other three, last day of freedom for me!
Ok, I'm wasting way too much time--please a hint for sp 6
lol, have fun bunny :)
have fun, bunny!
hi guys! I asked for the st7,40, but then someone at work needed me so I didn't see the answer. was there one?
alt spelling of sp5 munner
alt spelling for the sp5/14
yes jaime, and it rhymes with that game where you pull out wooden blocks and hope the tower doesn't fall
these ag's - are they all 4's?
1 5
it was in the grid a few days ago and you got it ;)
5's are the ba4 of my existence
AND i swear i tried that before
yay! thanks Hursh
any gh or gn words?
I only have the last sp 5---
2 gh
2x gh
munner - place you go for a facial + greeting
hooray for monkeys again!
that leaves one lousy g
yeah, same here
probably a 5 again, sigh
we can have hosen but not guten
yeah ... grrr
thanks, hurshy, got both of them PLUS fireworks!
and I wish we could have athena
yay munner! :)
yay!
anyone have the te 5,14?

Just in time for appt this afternoon. Bye everyone

hey people
just found a weird pu4/9
hey cingy
hey hursh
and ata, have you got pu6/30?
yup
and pa5/12?
morning all -- started last night at the flip, but it's a hard one for me -- 120 to go.
yup
Good morning. (get ready, set go, I have 10 minutes to get as many as I can)
then we must need the same 2 now
help with the pu6/30?
need 1 now
hey smazing :-)
pu6 rhymes with a bu word meaning to mess up a job
that is so "smazing"
what'd you find ata?
your weird 4/9 :P
pa5/12 = popular pattern in the 60's less the ending
oh i see, and i just found another pu 4/6
so now we both need one
babblephish -- that clue made sense! now I only have 118 to go :-)
aha, pi5
oh yes!
so I'm missing the whole ou section. I just don't see it.
Matty, how's your Scots? a hint for ag5/14 is as Robb Burns said, thigs "Gae aft ag***" take off the sometimes vowel at the end and substitute a second vowel
the dreaded 14!
It took me a while to find it too
5!
scribble here?
ou's i have (but i miss 2 o's): should, shoulds, consumed more, consume more, consumes more, not safes in baseball, view more
haven't seen her chatting, cingy
it says she is on "whos online"
you're missing some fairies, hursh
but thas anyway
maybe she is just focussed on finding words...or maybe she stepped away from the computer
i'm missing some fairies!
hello all! :)
ha!
i knew it
hey hey scribbledy dibbledy, we drew you out
sry clingy i was upgrading.

Eisbar, what is that??????
disguise
wow - this grid is a litle heavyon the vowels...how's it playing?
aw, crap.
euphoria, templeowl!
ty In--eus!
gu5/16 - first three letters, part of stomach, followed by shortened form of thanks. Latin plural for gu6/27
no, actuallly, the o words are a little annoying
Hi all, I have 115words but NONE of the 8/9 letter words yet! Have there been clues?
yup, earlier in teh log. actually some accidentally posted a long one too, i believe
There have boysaway - quite a few have the ab4/6 ending.
yw stidmama
hi stid! : )
hi TO!
can't face trawling through the entire chat - anyone like to clue me at least the nine?
the actual definition is tough to use - the condition of being a certain way. easier (though not the definition): if it's possible to say it, it's this.
and it's an S9 combo with an S5.
Great clue Krys, thanks
wow - thanks kry- got it!
glad to be of help. i have to go move the motorcycles before the street sweeper comes - BRB
Hi all! anyone care to clue me on the ae 7, please?
hi chic! : )
Hey Temple!
Hi Chic!!! What you use to do your hair while flying....
sprite clued me on the ae 7... something you use to style your hair when you're flying, use the bottom a
Hi Schroeder and Stid! I have the first part; it's the second part that doesn't make sense to me still...
hey schro! : )
great clue guys, thanks! think 80's spike hair. LA Looks, Dep, etc.
I cannot figure out any of the three et words. help please?
sounds like a kind of athletice shoe to me!
Hi Temple!!!! I have a day off work and decided to spend it with all of (((you)))
me, too! i mowed the lawn in the rain! it was fun!
Good afternoon all! Haven't been by in a while -- the grids have been too big for me to think about :\
ack, you reminded me I was supposed to mow the lawn too. I thought all I had to do was move the bikes...
hi woulf! good to see you!
hi GW! how've you been?
hi woulfie!
Hey GW! How's it going?
our lawn is hip deep - looks like we should get a pet lion - but we're away for the weekend so it will just have to wait.
WooHoo I went running at the lake before the tourist show up...lolol (((GW)))
Doing pretty good!
hello all
hi donner
hello donner!
Hi donner

Seb's been acting up but that was cos his teeth were finally breaking through -- last night he slept all the way through for the first time in a week and I got almost a full 8 hours! :)

Hi All

hello charm!
tunable
I'm stealing some time at lunch to chat with the people I don't get to see anymore :)
I can't believe I finally got that ae clue! thanx, guys!
He is, saphyre -- have you seen the new pics over at Bab Anon?
Are you at a new job now, GW?
and i'm so happy to see you all i gave you tu7/40! LOL!

Thanks Fiz. I got it!
I just filled out a stack of paperwork about an inch thick today to be made permanent -- I should be taken on by the end of June at the latest!!
cool GW
ooh - great news.
that's great, GW - I know you must be relieved.
good news GW!
Congrats, GW!
swmbo finally got some time in her newly busy schedule to post the latest pics of the kids for me -- it is in a new topic thread called GreyWoulf's Brood :0
The pic in yr icon GW is lovely!!! Hope the rest of the family are well too. Congrats on going perm, great news!
Thanks for all the support! It definitely made things easier having all of you to commisserate with
congrats Wolfie:)
(I think I used that correctly, it's one of those words I love the sound of but never get to use much ;D )
YEAH WOULF! I was so busy talking to Daisy I only just noticed. yippee!!!!
Congrats, GW
{{{{HUGS}}}} for everyone!!
Schro -- haven't seen you the longest out of everyone here I think -- how's things by you?
Doing great!!! Work has been taking up to much of my babble time though :(
those are amazing pictures! (where's you?)
stuck at 107
I hear you there -- work combined with the fact that Kristianna is wanting me to spend more active time with her now means I get even less time to babble now.... but the tradeoff is worth it!!
anyone ever finish a babble completely?
stidmama -- behind the camera!!! :D
pictures are adorable GW
;-) of course!
As I live & breathe... {{GreyWoulf}}
stuck on te5/6 help please
Thanks saphyre -- the kids did all the work, I just had to press the button
lol
Yes it is GW!!!! Well off for a bit, lunch with friends...see everyone in a bit (((GW))) great to see you again

boatierra - not to worry
boatierra... that was the first thing I said in chat this morning... that blog was invalid... bummer...
what's going on? i'm confused...
boat, i wouldn't worry, this might be clothes, our troll, back under a new name :)
saphyre - tell that to anfeild. To each their own.
i'm familiar w/hursh & the sentence thing.
woulf - if you're still here - catch you later!
fuck off
well I'm not - please share?
I was watching Pride & Prejudice & fell asleep... thought I'd better perk up with some Babbling...
lovely....
what kind of nutcase trolls a word game????????
u
fiz, if someone accidentally posts a word we build a funny sentence off it collaboratively, one word at a time
lots of them melonhead :)
Maybe it's extra fun to pi$$ off intellectuals?? LOL
ohhhh. got it. thx. and i'm AMAZED at the # of trolls we get here...
Thanks hurshy, Jera, melonheadjujube, saphyre. Looks like a troll to me. Can't take a simple apology, got some security issues :)
ohhhhh.... what a world - or as great grandma would say - it's a meshuggeneh velt!

as i was saying - DID ANYONE MISS ME LAST NIGHT?
yes melon we did!
no
AAARRRRGGHHH -- the computer here at work is sooooo ancient -- I just lost my last minutes of chat time because the browser froze -- I had to restart Explorer 4 times!!
Firefly, having you been playing for a while?
sorry GW (:
taDAH, firefly! go get yourself an eraly-bird special! the meatloaf looks good ;)
I missed you terribly, melon... sobbed uncontrollably the whole time I was here...
huh
good to see you and the pictures are lovely, woulf...see you soon i hope!
been playing for a couple months Charm
melon? you were gone? LOL yes -- of course we missed you.
hi stid!
way to go firefly!
Poor Woulf... I just figured you were deep in the grid...
no no no no no no no
that's nice saphyre. i really have to return to decent sleep habits - i'll miss the late night revelries & the magic moment when lickety's clues come up.
thx :)
Jera -- you were here last night? ;-)
bye sha...
See... I'm not missed when I'm around... that's worse than not being missed when you are gone...
Good afternoon to all , have fun babbling and I will be back later tonight to hunt -- {{Hugs again}} TTFN
I keep saying I'm going to quit early but I never do
yessssss! just got all the vowel words out of the way.
Merry Part, GW
good job Krys :)

way to go Krys!
now I really MUST go back to finding words... I have 81 to go.
wat the hell
I have 74 to go
firefly779 - does your name come from the TV show?
wow not
Wow, only 100 left... not bad for my sickly self...
nope boatierra, check my icon, just the bugs
:)
Jera, are you still feeling poorly?
What is today's theme supposed to be? I keep losing track...
Ah, didn't even think to look at that. Good pic.
sitcoms, jera
not many participating, though - i'm excited to be able to display one of my childhood heroes
I am still totally flummoxed by the et words.... help?
Ah. Not much of a sitcom person. Guess I'll stick with my boring old self-portrait (LOL)
I second stid's cry for et help!
me too!
one's a gas, the other is a babblet and its pl...
the babblet you add two vowels.
hi hurshy!
hiya everyone!! :)
firefly779 - Here's a bit of trivia. Did you know that a group of fireflies is called a conflagration?
sorry - babblet?
et4/5 & pl is the ol babblet word that crops up quite regularly means a needlecase.
hi hursh, bex!
I love stuff like that... what groups of animals are...
I love the word flummoxed. Two of the ET words are a needle case and its plural, and the third is a gas, I assume..
hehehehe
WOW, i did not know that boat! ;)
hi bex! babblets are "regulars" in the grid
Ya, that from 'An Exaltation of Larks' by James Lipton. Great book. I highly recommend it.
hi bex. thanks stid.
Thanks hursh - just what I needed.
Hi, I just got here. How's today's puzzle?
i am NOT getting them, still. please hold my hand a little more...
Oh, one of the et words, is one of my favorite for this puzzle and for crosswords to know. Its a needle case.
hi bex temple hurshy firefly stidmama fmitch jera fiz boatierra krys10 kaetchen merk and so on
krys10 - wowie - the ET clues brought back an early, early scrabble memory with my mom! i remember her telling me et___ was a word - this was > 40 years ago!
you could say it's...rough
hi mab!
Hi mab! Just got here myself.
hi mab :)
hi mab
Being a corviphile, my favorite is a murder of crows... although a parliament of owls is pretty cool, too
melonhead - neat!
hi hursh :)
Hola mab
Jera, what is it for ravens?
So where's the 9 letter word?
hey mab!
dunno Jera, a crash of Rhinos is pretty cool too :)
hi temple
a nevermore of ravens?
A conspiracy of ravens!
I gotta leave you all - there's work to be done and I'm leaving town for the weekend. Maybe I'll stop by tonight. (good one, hurshy!)
Don't you just love all those terms? I get the biggest kick out of them. Here's another one: an indifference of waiters
blech. got the et 4 and 5, looking for the 6 now...
later Fiz!
What does the 9 letter word begin with?
st9
merk -- st
Merk - it's related to an s5
Although an unkindness & constable are proper alternatives for some reason...
OK, an 's' word then. Thanks
Jera - I looked up corviphile in Dic.com, and nothing came up. What does it mean, love of what?
Ravens/crows
Ah, thanks.
I kinda made it up... I love ravens/crows
i can't believe a hiphop word is in the dictionary when other slangs much older aren't!
me too, Jera -- I knew what you meant immediately!
Ah, even better. My made up word for myself is heliophobic.
with my cats i think a group should be called a wrestle of cats...
stid that et 6/ is often preceded with "m"
m/e6 smells...
ty jeffer -- that was what I needed.
A pounce of cats
But wrestle is good.
Got it. That one wasn't so bad.
I thought I made up a word when I was a kid... gesticulate... I was very disappointed to learn it was "real."
ok i need clues -
do you all know each other is that how you can chat and still play?
and hurshy... feeling very out of it today. Down to 78 now. :-)
a bounce of sparrows
st 5/14 both please
101 left
I just join in chat any time I want. Don't really know anyone here.
Usually both are not done well, 1j2u3d4y...
st5/14 sounds like front steps or to crouch, and then the other you change the end vowel
go smokey go!
I am (obviously) new here and I sure can't do both
I've only found 6 words since I got here
That st also helped me with the 'up'. I always go from bottom up.
I turn off chat when I'm really trying to focus - but the chatting is the fun part. I ran into an old friend here earlier today, but I don't expect that'll ever happen again!
oh Jera - you make me fee so much better
Well, that just made my day!
did you really, Krys - that is a riot
got them hurshy
when you type my name skip the numbers...it goes faster that way
it was really strange - check back in the log from a few hours ago if you're feeling voyeuristic
ha 7/44... assume the 8 following is its plural...
once more you stoop to conquer
Usually if you've been chatting then decide to get serious, you say Okay, I'm diving into the grid now... so people won't wonder why you suddenly stop talking
has anyone noticed this is a rather zig-zaggy game today?
I figured out the pattern, judy...
you got it!
must be from navigating all around the vowels
nu 6/21 please?
Ah, it won't take 'thang'.
jeffer: think of "to change"
sorry jeffer, don't have that yet...
It guess its too "street".
Me neither
i thied than, too - but the other hiphop word it took.
TO -- that's been in here a lot recently! it's almost a fish for me now!
different first letter jeffer,,lol stid
no "blog" either
ok, diving in now...
still need help with the longer ha words. starting with the ha 7.44...
thanks TempleOwl that was in the other day!
stidmama - think about places you like to go - a favorite coffeeshop or bar...
In my city a lot of the teens ha7/44 at the skate park

Our golden chain tree is in full bloom,better than any previous year.
i found the 9-letter word. :-D
stid: hawaiin word for non-native
Stid that 4/5 is what you wear on your head, plural
I have a golden chain a friend just gave us. It's not doing very well -- a fungus, I think, but will give it some time to settle in...
i have not seen one - do you know it's proper name?
got it. Fish, please!
ack, you've all reminded me that I made a deal with the houseplants that I would water them today
and fertilize
it's a laburnum, Temple Owl

hello missyem!
ha 8: ability to be ha 4/5
ha55 has a 4 letter suffix - preceded by a vowel
ga 4/7 like a litle deer but first letter changes
Any help on the gu 5/16 at the beginning?
ty jeffer
gu 5/16 is a resist used in dyeing and painting, the 6 is its latin plural
oops it 's noy a little deer but a deity ...
Stidmama, I need the gu 5/16 before that one
ou7/32?
thanks! I couldn't twist my eyes to see that ha8....
ou 7/32 plural of someone who dines not at home
ou7/32 - at a pie consuming contest, the winner ou***** all others.
the gu 5/16 before is like the clothes you wear to present a persona -- if you want to confuse people, you dis-gu*** yourself
ty stidmama
Thanks ARB et al... I thought I had entered taht one. Those darn plurals
stid, your clues rock
just following in the footsteps of the great, missyem! :-)

ha: to go quickly, but drom the s and replace it with a p
86 still for me....
stuck on lo 5/12, 6/21, 5/12 sequence, have all the other lo words...
Hetty - it's the word used in Hawaii for white folk -- ha + what is hollered at the bullring
I don't think I'm going to get anywhere near finishing today, since I've left it so late to start.
Never been either to Hawaii or to a bullring (ugh)
ylleria, I thought yesterday was a lost cause when I waited until 4 hours left, but managed it (with tons of help, of course) with time to spare!
what do you get with babble pro?
n1vdu, your clue yelded the red denial
ha 5/12 ha+part of a soccar chant
soccer*
smokey, you get stats, a profile page and an icon -- and you help support the site...
OK, I'll try again. Laugh + p + number of fingers on both hands

Howdy, everybody! Thang isn't a word? So when my husband says " Honey, don't you worry 'bout a thang. I'll take care of it." and it doesn't get done...that's because, there is no thang! I get it now.
smokey, I'm beginning to feel very ignorant. I don't kno any soccer shants
Help on the re 5/14?
hi gramma! LOL
LOL gramma:)
I am going to go be productive for a while... back this evening to finish (I have 52 to go)

Hi Gramma

re 5/14 queen
lol
hi gramma
hi babblers
hi abe
see you later, stid
hi anniebrook
The second ha5/12 is what Hawaiians call white men (apparently). Add a Spanish word of exclamation.
ok thanks hetty second he 5/12 please?
ty jeffer
yw ARB
95 done - shall i try to make it to 100 or go to the laundromat - if only it was an cyberlaundry - washers & internet
The second he5/12 is a word used to describe a type of robbery
No time to chat. Must get this done! I brought the computer outside. So when he asks me "what've you been doing today?" I can honestly say...I've been outside working all day.
abe79, my name is abraham as well
ty Haz!
tonight I am playing babble on the horrendously expensive laptop my work just gave me :)
You're welcome jeffer.
hetty did you see Haz at 2:38 ...
Any help on the ro 5/16 ?
Does it get the words for you ylleria?
ylleria -- will that help you or hinder you?
ro5/16 is French for red, or an old fashioned term for blusher.
100 - i'm outthere. it was nice - bye all 4 now! :X (kitty cat smiley)
jeffer, no.please, Haz,the second hA5/12?
melon -- in other words -- adom or adomir
lol smokey2joints. it's nice to meet you , may i call you abe?
adomit
lo 5/18 anyone?
unfortunately, I think it's a hindrance since it makes my typing so much worse, as until yesterday I hadn't used a laptop in about 8 years
The second ha5/12 is a term used by Hawaiians to describe white men. To ha add a Spanish word of exclamation.
don't know that word - does it start ayin or alef?
Found it (at least my monkey did. )Must fly to serve lunch
lo5/18 = like the opp. of soft (ro5/18) but starting with 'l'.
melon -- it's the color and rouge, in Hebrew -- with an alef
lo + kids say "---" to veggies
but it does mean I can hook up to my boyfriends broadband connection and go online without hogging his computer all night :)
lo5/18 is the Irish version of loch. It has the same ending as the coarse ro5/18
lo 5/18 -- ends in that wonderful unpronouncable 4 letters in the middle of the grid
ty charm
Unpronouncable? Not if you have any Scots or Irish blood in you!
oh oh oh - i thought you were saying goodbye - i know adom! & cachol, and yarok, and, and...Cya! l'hit!
y/w. On that note, I'm off to do laundry (bleah). See everyone later.
ylleria -- it's the old silver lining in every cloud thing.
have also just discovered that leaving my boyfriend access to his own pc means he puts on the winning song from the Eurovision song contest.... :s
melon yalla bye
ylleria -- that's the cloud that comes with the silver lining!
Ah yes, those dulcet Finnish tones....
I can't find the te 5,14 or 'te' 6,21. Are they slang? Any hints?
truth be told, in a perverse way I kind of like it ;)
Merk - the te5/14 doesn't exist, so stop looking for it. The te6/21 does - the number after nine and the ending of a series of French Kings.
Oh, Haz, thank you so much. I was going batty!!
Help me! after I TE (took care of) and before the 10th Hebrew letter, there are 2 words I can't find. Anybody, please.
se 6/21 anyone?
I'm not sure what happened with Lickety's list, but the te5/14 definitely isn't there!
But I don't know the ending letters for French kings.
Haz, I saw your clue ....ty
It's the name of Mr Pasteur, if that's any help? lo5/12
how do you know which words you're missing?
se6/21 is a seven piece musical band/group
as in how long/how many points they're worth
gramma te 6/21: no. after nine + fifth vowel, third vowel, and snake
I finally got it. I was not thinking of the king's actual name. What does the word mean anyway?
smokey - if you click on Lickety's babble clues, under Friends of Babble at the bottom of the page, you will get a list of second letters and values there.
thnx
lo 5/12 not Pasteur, please?
It's a voiceless stop apparently, Merk.
Cant find ba4/6. Have searched and searched!
The other lo5/12 differs from Mr Pasteur only in the last letter, substituting a vowel for a consonant.
saffire - ba4/6 is a unit of currency. Switch round the last letters of the place where you soak to relax.
ty again, Haz1558
Got that one haz. just cant see another
Sorry - I've given a clue for ba4/7! ba4/6 is 'nuisance' as in 'you're the ba** of my life'
got that as well/ and boy ba**.
ba 4/6: ba + unsidedown fifth vowel and second vowel, one meaning is poison
The only other ba4 is a noisy one.
think its the one after that?
may i have a brief review of the 8's please? i have a ro. thanks!
I must have it wrong. i'll go and check my list!
ha8/60 - gathering places. ha8/55 worthy of being detested, tu8/55 - can be made melodious
thanks a million haz!
Haz, do you prepare these lists (like all the 8's) ahead of time, or are you just that fast?
Tut! was a 5 letter!! looked for ages as well! thanks anyway!
You're welcome, abe.
No, inge, I'm not that prepared! I just look down the list and type as fast as I can!
stuck on ae 4/4 lol sometimes the short ones are the toughies
the ae4 is usually seen as a prefix and calls to mind flying
pefix to ****plane
aha! thnx inge
Haz, I am alwasy amazed, since I dont think in terms of all 8's or 9's etc, I just go alpahbeticaly from one end or the other
aarrgghh!!!!! just spent 10 minutes looking for a te5 on Lickety's list which doesn't exist...
It's the phantom te5/14 again.....
thats Lickety's way of checking that we are paying attention
Fireworks
yay arb!
congrats, arb
Congratulation ABE
inge - I scan up and down the list to pick out the number requested - fortunately the 8's aren't too plentiful or difficult to describe.
it worked!!! ...evening Haz and inge :)
Good evening sherb! What stage are you with the grid?

The word (st7) comes from a Malaysian word for half measure and is used in connection with the drinks industry.
woah, smokey... two addictions may be too much... ;)
thanks haz
HIGNFY... bbl...
It's a nice grid up to a point, sherb, and then takes a few twists and turns...
Enjoy sherb!
oh, and I'd better watch Grumpy Old Women after that... I really need a tv in the Babble room...

It's a most peculiar looking word, but I suppose the Malaysian connection explains it.

ha6/24 - adds a letter that sounds like a vegetable andfinishes with a two digit number.
The first ha8/60 is plural place where people gather to relax
great clue on the ha6/24 Haz!
bummer, not getting either. :(
Ok.. got the 6!
eesh!
Babblephish - the root word of the ha8/60 is the suspending ha4/7. Build on that to get the 8.
And now, I must go and deal with some laundry. Have a good time hunting down those elusive words!
Oh Boy! *Slaps myself upside the h4 with a phish!*
Before you go, Haz. I have a blind spot --gu5/16 and gu6/27. 2 blind spots!
Bye Haz!
gu5/16 and gu6/27 - first three letters body part relating to the stomach. Then add shortened form of thanks. The gu6 is the latin plural.
Both words relate to a type of rubber gu*** percha.
gu16 = "judy in disgu*, that's what you are..."
Not found in dictionay- - -I have the one like an intestine, it's th otheer one
Or gu6 = Yo! Peeps! Git yo mind outta da gu*!
LOL Babblephish.....ty Haz :)
*poor imitation of ebonics*
The other one (gu5/16 - is to have a different appearance.
Thanks, Babblephish, that's the one. Wh about 6?
The gu6 is the latin plural of gu5/16
Dat be mo' of dem... with the latinish ending?
Gotcha. Back to my percha
Okay hetty - I'll leave you to carry on manfully!
hetty how are u doing
well thats the 'g's done....working from list now !
hetty knows her scottish :)
shouldn't blog be in dict.? ;-]
one would think libarebel
i tried it too
I think most people would, Cathyar :)
ro8? I got the first 4 letters... not the last 4 though!
ugh...77 left. gotta go do some housework
k...i'll wait for the clue for the ro8 with walnut
oggy, thnkd. (I have a Scots grandma, and an Irish one too for my sins) I' struggling along, now lookin for the nu6
hetty...where r u in canada?
nutae
oops... it's not a word anyway
That should be ThANKS. I'm doing as Haz said to do---but one couold hardly be less manful than I
Cathyar, I wonder; if we voted here to have blog in dict, do you think our opinion would count? :)
lol...doubtful... Dr. God is da man!!!
(at least we assume he's a man)
wonder what his real name is?
jamie tibbets
Cathyar, I live on Salt Spring Island--between the main west coast and Vancouver Island
and yes, he's a man
words, tho get put into dicts due to popularity...
ahhh...hetty...yer at the other end of the country from me
also doc doesn't put words in the dictionary, he uses the en6 dictionary which is controlled by someone else
really??? dr. god's name is jamie? u know him personally hurshy?
Why don't you look me up on frappr? I have a icture there. Yes, Here we call Vancuver Island thge mainland--that part oof us to the east, that's Canada!
I also think that Dr.G is really intune...
all worship dr god jamie for giving us babbleland
so, the ro8 that walnutchen asked for...anyone with a clue?
ya... took the words outta my mouth firefly
hi firefly!
Hursh has probably emailed him, as I have done, and got an answer from Jamie
well, the Enabl people, too; must have some contact... :)
ahhh... i see
nu6/21?
anyone read The Professor and The Madman? it's a great read
hi walnut - just wanting to get another 8 under my belt before I feed the little one lunch...
hi all, I'm back for my last 50... how's everyone doing today?
Yup Smokey, read it ages ago, but it still sticks
nu 6
rock, sway, or nod; usually involuntarily
yes i've just emailed him many times and that's how i know his name.
nrkii - i'm dragging along, slowly
lunch? at 2? my little one is with the inlaws
Hi nrkii! I'll help all I can, but I still have 28 to go. INCLUDING nu6/21!
my little one eats at 6, 9,12,3,6,9
she takes a late morning nap, then has a bottle, then a late lunch (i'm probably stretching it some actually)
bet he gets a kick watchin us talk about him sometimes
If you have the Ro4/6, the 8 is the most of it
don't have the ro4/6
Thanks for trying, spotplus, but I'm not getting it
ah. got it thanks babblephish. I guess I didn't think of it cuz I don['t know what ro4/6 means!
I had a problem w/ server logon, & he answered email/solved my problem really quickly! :-D
Sick babies get the *cough cough*... less the first letter
cathyar: ro4/6 sounds like a really think piece of string...
nu 6/21 is nu + ta4/4
cathyar, change the vowel from a second to a fourth and put it BEFORE the "r:
hetty NU + Little Man ****
I mean the "p"
love that movie
but, does anyone know for sure that jamie tibbets is a man-- photo w/beard... ;)t?
photo doesn't mean anything... look at hetty's pic...is that what she looks like? hetty...?
lol
jamie can be a female name
dr. god...if u r out there...please enlighten us? r u man or woman?
Spotplus, I've tried putting both my ta/4's after "NA" and neither one is accepted
good point (photo) lol :)
it is nu + ta4/4
and no...i do NOT look like my dog in my pic (Buster)
a
but cathyar, doc has a blue person by his name that is how we know he is a man
A clue for sp6/24 please?
<----looks just like this! pictures never lie??? :)

yes and i am MPD...
hi all. i look just like this. fyi.
NABLER
hey fiz, you're in RI?!!
might not be true!!! maybe dr. god wants us all to THINK she is a man!!!! lol can't be too trusting in this world today ;)
someone w/ tech savvy like Dr. G. could put in blue icon :)
yup. in lovely providence. you?
doc seems to me to be a very honest person. besides i can tell he's a man by the way he talks.
i lived in RI from age 9-18
Wasm
Do you mean ne4? Spot, tried again. my ta4's both turn my nu RED
lol.... we ALL could be men trying to make each other think we are women...of course...there are more pink icons out here than blue
grr. sorry...
Wasn
funny - i've lived here since i was 18. didn't think anyone ever moved away... Circe, are you having a seizure?
says something about women does it not??? we ARE the more intelligent sex!!!
and i can prove i lived in RI - del's, coffee milk, pizza strips, buddy cianci, bubbles...i want to go to scarborough...that's where all the guidos go...
Wasn't there an article not long ago about Dr. God that referred to him as a 'him'...I seem to remember this....but it is Friday....thanks for the concern Fiz..thinkI am okay now.
or the men who babble don't like to chat as much as the women :)
that would be reasonable hurshy...most men HATE to chat
also doc has made direct claims to masculinity. i suppose if you WANT to believe he's lying you can...
It wiorked the third time. Iswear I tried twice in vain. Thanks, Spot
I think hursh has it right. the guys just aren't as chatty as us ladies. and they may be uncomfortable with the handbags.
i wonder what the stats are....my i'm in a curious mood today
except for bonkler (flattened kitty) :)
i wonder...do the men finish the puzzles quicker??? if so...is it b/c they rarely chat?
Why all this androgyny talk? What does gender matter? (say she at 77)
saffire, if you're still looking for sp 6/24 it's relaxing place plus half a laugh
doesn't matter...just babbling (pardon the pun)... pondering matters of the sexes
well...gotta go...i think i'm getting on hetty's nerves....anyhow...gotta feed my son and bring in the doggie
hmmm... pondering
you know, i think it's interesting that we have to pick a gender in our profile, and that it's displayed by our name at each post. isn't this supposed to be a place to get away from all that?
see ya cathyar!
I'm babbling too, and I like to tease...on to the o's
bye Cathyar ;-]
bye nrkii
and all
bye dear pal Cathyar
lol...luv y'all...man and woman alike... dr. god should give me points for that...
bye
TheFiz-- the gender field is optional, but I did select it...
evening all
hi feather!
yay! fireworks! it's my birthday! the holidays have now begun! happy day!
yay dippnall!!!
happy bday. i just turned 21 myself.
yay dippnall!
101 words on my own with chat turned off, not too shabby! heading for the list now, why torture myself?
i wish smokey...
Happy bd Dip!
we're all masochists for loving babble
Happy Birthday, Dippnall !
thanks all .. any clues needed?
happy bday! (look, i'm gender-free!)
lol, yes, probably smokey! it's the amount of torture we prefer that makes us different...
feather, I'm still torturing myself -- 46 to go
hi everyone !
i left myself 100 last night
helen! hi :)
why helen, fancy meeting you here
listless nrkii?
hiya feather!
regut
hi helen - is that Patty Duke?
TheFiz-- how'd you do that?? :)
hiya hurshy - hurshy you will be too young to know my sitcom :(
only so far feather, but I don't think I'll last much longer
well, i am too young to know it personally but i know about it - one of my mom's faves
and her cousin cathy !!!! (fiz is old) :))
what's the theme? and yes, i know your icon helen!
see i think once you gut something, that's kind of it. you can't regut it
sitcoms, feather
one of mine too plus a very catchy little theme song
lol hurshy
"identical cousins... they're two of a kiiiiind"
lib - just a little minor surgery, some legal paperwork and it's all done. (seriously - go to "my account" and select the blank option.)
lol
nrkii, what's yours? too small for me to tell for sure
can anyone help with the te5/14
hurshy, I still tried to do UN 6 27 with an R on the end to make a 7!
its the cast of SOAP
lib - how did the fizz do what?
ahhh, ok
oh I LOVED soap!
i did too nrkii, you never know with babble
te5/14 doesn't exist
helen - go gender free. no rigid paradigms for me!
if you want to see someone's icon better just click on it
oh, thanks
ohhhh, i see, cool
schneiderrrrrrrrr, lol
SOME day, i will know those darn ae words without having to look in a letter list
hello...still here...head down with 23 to go...daisy, I loved Soap too !!!
my childhood hero. I used to roll cassette tapes up in my t-shirt to impersonat the look. my mother *loved* that - not exactly the look she wanted for her daughter...
that's hysterical - but look how cancer-free!
I bought a bunch of Soap episodes on DVD
and still watch when there are Soap marathons on TV LAND
it was one of the few programmes that made me laugh out loud all by myself !!
Hi,Dippnall. How'd you like to help me find lo5/18and lo6/21?
hetty...I can help if you want
hetty, lo 6/21 is plural of a man's name
"they look alike, they talk alike, they dress alike, they walk alike.....what a crazeeeeeee pair!"
catchy, no?
helenkeller -- you must have loved patty duke's portrayal of you ;)
she did an outstanding job, simply outstanding !!!!
oh. how did TheFiz get grey icon?
I don't know what it means, but spungle sounds SOOO much like a word!
I loved the patty duke show!:-D
nrkii, I hae the man's name that is also the name of a king. Is there another one lurking in the grid? I see him not (peers)
oh, ty Fiz-- had missed grey icon hing :)
me too !!!! & that was before the advent of trick tv, i remember saying 'mom, how does she do that?'
hetty, you pluraled it too?
lo 5/18 is like an R word for "not smooth"
the man's name comes in 3 forms... the king, the same pronunciation but different last letter (also a gob of spit), and pl
te6/21?
I don't see how you can pluralise a name already ending in "s" --ahI see even as I type. Ta
the procedure hopefully worked...
if ph 4/6 is a word, blog should? be
hello libarebel -the transformation seems complete
well... not to ruin all the genderless fun, but i think that while we should avoid forcing people into certain boxes based on their gender, gender is NOT meaningless. statistically, there are differences. just because not EVERYONE in each gender fits into the stats doesn't mean they are not useful.
but Blog is a short for Weblog
walnutchen, 10 + sounds like what you do when you have asthma
ty Fiz!
gotta go have some dinner. have fun lib et al!
I like having my gender in here -- dunno why, but I guess it's more of a why not?
back -- see you later Fiz!
bye, Fiz :)
yeah, i'm a girl and proud of putting up with all the difficulties that accompany it! :)
bye fiz
bye fiz :)
oops, time for me to go
bye hurshy!
bye hurshy!
hurshy -- I'm going back; proud to be pink!

Hi everyone, may I have clues for the U words
missing an ou 4/7, 5/16 combo. have all the other ous. Any ideas?
Norma: the second ha 4/5, which is only one letter different from the first
(non sequitor) I guess it's only fair that it won't accept anglo as it doesn't take negro, but how does ha*** manage to be here??
peri, first one means can't do it
second U means take that thing off your head
I think honky was in the grid at one point...
third U is plural of second
Enable dict. is so inconsistent...
nrkii, thanks, now have all the U words
woo-hoo periwinkle!
good, because I somehow couldn't figure out a clue for the last one!
over 100 words and have not used the list yet. pretty good for me.

Seriously... what are these frickin' words? I can't figure 'em out!
Um....no --- but we will give you clues
and by the way... i love the kitty pic!
exactly! My kids love to watch the inspector gadget movies, but I don't know if they've ever seen Max...
What is a 9nre?
I don't understand these little clues you keep giving each other.
YoBaby, b patient it will pop out in front of yah.........:)
sorry.... 9ner.
yes Dax.....something that can be definately said
Karys, I am stuck on the ro 8 please.
YoBaby if someone asks for a clue for ha 4/5 it means it's a 4 letter word beginning with ha and worth 5 points
How do i know what's worth x points?
I was just thinking about Get Smart the other day -- my dad LOVED the show and would watch it with us. I'd def. like to see it again as an adult (Get Smart, that is)
Oh, never mind. Now i see the little numbers on the letters.
YoBaby, read the hints in the "help" section of this website, and also Angelsong's resource page explains a lot and has a lot of links to resources
You rock, stidmama. Thank you.
stid....think of hot savoury liquid you have with crackers....and then more of it...(but with the ro and not the so !)

saphyre need the he not the ha but ty

Sometimes talking on here feels like utopia
LOL stid - perfect
lol stid
it feels like "Home" to me... it's nice
jfarber, you still there?
sometimes it feels better than home to me stid. Not that I'm an escapist or anything
musicmom, have you tried to enter "tenuto" more than once today? I keep trying... it's still not there!
we just got back from Florida and having a really hard time settling back into an 'unhospitable' society
no but I proabably will now
I could live in DisneyWorld
nice spelling - probably
Is the UK not so hospitable? (never been there)
Karys where in Florida were you? I lived in Ft. Lauderdale for a couple of years
it's nothing like Florida stid !!!
te 7 please...
feasible, stid
Orlando macuser....but will be in Ft.Lauderdale at Christmas

ProfileUnited States
ro 7?
we were there for my daughter's wedding...and did the parks
Wow Karys - does your daughter live in the states? I would think tha twould be hard.
8...
ro7.....hot savoury liquid with crackers.....and more
ro7 - to make a surface not smooth
macuser...yes it was...brilliant
we visited Georgia recently and know what you mean about the southern hospitality!!
thanks macuser -- Karys - I think that is the 8.
what?---- meant ty for te7 macuser... :)
music...no....UK...but she always wanted to get married there
Karys You'll enjoy Ft. Lauderdale. Nice beaches there
hi everyone
Very cool Karys
yes...sorry music :(
I'm sad that jfarber isn't on anymore, because I just found out he lives 2 towns over from where I grew up.
ah! a boy is home...
jfarber was going to come back nrkii, once the kids were in bed I think.
kid alert! lol
you're right stid, I forgot!
LOL tndaisy
music...it was lovely....but it was so because of the people....everyone we encountered were so helpful and just so NICE
:-) the kids coming home is actually (usually) a high point in my day.
oh, Karys! I'm so pleased your visit went well! It's exciting to know you were on these shores.
but not when you're so close to finishing!
for me too stid --- after a couples of hours though I'm ready for them to go again sometimes
okay, pride out the window. te 5/14 and 6/21 please?
exactly nrkii!
hi mab....it was so for me too !
any clues for the re's. i only have the fishing rod one.
I'm glad Karys- many times in this country we hear how those from other countries think we are rude and inconsiderate
*sigh of relief* so glad I am not the only mother whose adorable children have that effect on her! LOL
stid...te5/14 does not exsist
stid, good news, no TE 5/14
you re** what yousow
don't try to find it, lickity's list is wrong
Alien you re** what you sow and plural
te 6/21 is number after 9 plus a syllable that sounds like an asthma attack
TY...is that all of them?
being an american in britain I love going home!!!
(raspy breathing)
music....that is just not so....we came back thinking whatever must you all think of us !!!
okay... *thinking, looking*
did i read right that you were in orlando karys?
Bubbs....I bet you do !!
yes Dax
good to hear Karys -- I'm sure there are impersonal and rude people every where. I'm just glad you had a good experience
It is very hard to babble when the family is wrestling on the couch beside me
problem -- boy has not come through door. need to investigate. Back later.
well disneyworld is the happiest place on earth, after all
see ya soon stid
i just moved from orlando last october. did u do the disney thing? I used to work there for 3 1/2 years
YEy! My R is grey
exactly nrkii - which is why I want to live there :)
bye stid
we did Dax.....we enjoyed it far more than we expected...that is us 'oldies'
shoot I missed a p --- pu 6/30?
pu6/30.....think where lions etc live
evening all: last word is the second sp5/14 i really need help please
thanks Karys -- had the last two letters twisted
when I was in my early 20's I drove cross-country to Los Angeles for grad school ... traveled with my best friend ... small car, no air conditioning, august, through the south ... by the time we got to L.A. and went to Disneyworld, we pretty much hated each other (got over it later), so the whole happiest place on earth thing was lost on us then :)
:). It was a nice place to work at first but after awhile it gets real demanding of all your time. I was a photographer for disney
health resort & short hello

Tears: I want my reward!!!

oh man, i only have one ou
te 6 anyone?
thank you, thank you! I'm realllllly close to making it onto the bottom of the village elders list.... a goal of mine
IS1, te 6 is number after 9, plus a syllable that sounds like what someone does in an asthma attack
feather, plural that one
IS1, also like the game played by Andre Agassi but flip the 4th letter over....
lol, the only one i have is the plural opposite of ins
nice clue missyem!
okay feather, I was hoping you wouldn't say that
try OU = supposed to
dang it, that letter combo is what i keep missing!
plural THAT one
yeah, already did!
lol
then there are 3 ou6 words that are compound words
so look for nice little 3-letter words you could add to opp of IN
any clues for the ae 7 / 36?
ok, that should help me
nrkii - i finally figured out what an astmatic sounds like! thanks
shade, flight word plus not solid or liquid
sorry IS1, I know that was obscure
thanks nrkii
no - it was a good clue
I can clue for a little while, too
flying hair product was an earlier clue
feather, one of your compound OU words get's pluraled too
i just found a really weird one
add an e to that one feather
did already, ty!
I like flying hair product better!
got em all now!
feather, like the sound of a guy hit in the stomach?
lmao, yes missy, that one!
Feather, your bio has one of our words today!
i hate when you click on the ? and don't get a definition
awesome, thanks nrkii, i didn't have that one yet!
:)
feather, ME TOOOOOO! drives me nuts.
guy getting hit in stomach + vowel = "changeling", but without the e, nothing
arg, my back is killing me. can't sit any more. back in a while
hmmm, I guess I gave away which vowel to add :)

bye bonkler
yay, feather!
featherbee, what question mark are you referring to?
newbie here, can you tell

hello everybody
oh, duh
hello juniper!
hey, juniper, roni
hi, and thanks
that's ok roni, it's a busy screen
much to see, much to do
time to tackle the grid wooo hoo
is there a secret ;-)
roni, have you looked at Angelsong's Babble link at the bottom of the screen, left side? It's a great overview -- and Lickety's Babble Clues, next
It's the te 5/14 that isn't htere right?
no, i'm brand new - thanks, will do
yes
thnx
i did,however get my mom hooked, too :-D
first time I've seen Lickety's list have a mistake, though I've seen lots of times where we thought there was one...
they helped me get the hang of it when I was new -- just over a month ago :)
stupidhead made up words...
Missy, I'm at 29 days now!
lol feather
hi everyone, ae7 please
(missy said a word!)
peri, flying hair product
lol, i like that clue
all credit to bonkler for passing it on
nrkii, I like the clue, but can't figure out the word :(
heh, i'm picturing little tubes of it with wings, ala quidditch and the golden snitch
a flight word, like an old fashioned way of starting the word A***plane + not solid or liquid
feather, I was picturing the hair product itself in flight, like big globby bubbles
somewhere in between a solid and liquid
yeah, what feather said
feels good in shoe inserts
are you ***lin'?
lmao, nrkii
lol, come on peri, got it yet?
you and feather should do stand up
nirkii, figured it out, thanks
we get punchy after this much babble :)
thanks featherbee too
hehehe
Have GreyWoulf, Anj and Lola been on lately?
ok, back to my p words!
Woulf was on earlier today -- had been filling out paperwork for going permanent...
Anj put a marker on the frappr map...
oh, nrkii, so very true. towards the end of my quest there were so many common words I had missed, I was slapping myself silly with that smelly old haddock
don't remember last time I saw Lola though.
hi all!
hi stid!
hiya stid!
wassup! how's Charlotte -- does Molly like being a big sister? is she old enough to have figured this out yet?
allo
and has anyone heard from Aussieme? I have been thinking about her for two days solid...
missy, that smelly old haddock....this is the second grid i've missed the actual fishy word itself!
good morning all..!
she LOVES her... she keeps kissing her, well licking her. Charlotte is doing great. Isn't she being induced today? (Aussie that is)
hey featherbee! I finished a little after nrkii...
so good to hear!
i saw when i came back...i had just missed you!
I think it was yesterday/last night our time "Friday" for Aussieme.
ooh, so she should have a baby by now!
well, miss me no more!
I think so... hope all went well, she is such a dear!
oh and periwinkle -- Woulf has some pics up on BA of the kids... There is a link to his site in the meet and greet section I think (can't remember what he called the post)
anyone have that es word?
think of what you call your house
oh!!!
My grandmother was born in a large house on the es**** her family owned...
ty!
thanks for the update stidmama
yw periwinkle -- did you finish the grid today?
Good evening everyone.
hello Luwanda!
not yet stidmama, still have 88 to go, not sure I will finish,
need any help, just ask, I am here for about an hour.
i need b or g words
sorry, all I was off in Frappr land.... now I'm back. Yellow Cookie, be more specific?
the first ba 4/7 is a unit of money from thailand, plural for a 5/16
there are two ba 6/30, they both begin with the ba 4/8. one ends with a "one who" ending and the means a type of loose-fitting bracelet
not working cvan u make it easire?
wait hold on
ha 6/24?
is it da7/40?
ha 6/24: first three letters of the previous 4/6 + # after 9
if you take the word meaning to occur, and say it like you're two
thansk
i hab a 40 piont word
does anyone need it?
its the da7/40
that's a good word, cookie! do you also have the da 6/27s that come right before it?
tu7/40 anyone
no
can u give me a hint
peri, it's the tu 8 but drop the silent vowel
peri, TU 7/40 is "you can change the stations on this radio because it's TU*****"
take the last letter off the da 7/40 for one cookie,
nrkii, had the tu8, didn't think to drop the "e", thanks
yeah
then use the first four letters of that da 6 (also a valid word) and add -er
te7/36?
sry wat is the da 6 word
nevermind
I need help with the gh5/16 word
hey everyone- gee i really needed that nap
hi helen! feeling better?
st7/40
kayze, it's the plural of the gh 4 ... which rhymes with "cat"
stidmama can u help me
I'm surprised that the dictionary doesn't recognize 'blog', interesting?
okay...i really need to know what all these fractions are
now i think i need some popcorn - brb, still 45 to go
wit the da words
missyem, thanks. I should have seen that.
the first number is the number of letters in the word, followed by the total point value of the word
hiya stid- yep, well rested
i'm down to 16 helen
se7/32
cookie -- you have the da 7, did you take the last letter off that word to get one of the da 6?
thnx
peri, that st is a doozy. s + number after 9 + first syl. of where you pahk your cah (hint)
lol feather - leaving me behind in the dust again
well, you did nap! i'm the tortise, you're the hare?
stidmama i got the da/6 word can you give me the rest of the clue
we learn what to ask for by using a list (Lickety's clues in the links at the bottom of the page) or by figuring out what logically fits in the spaces we have left
There is a da 4 that is just the first four letters of the da 6 and 7 you have.
Then, for the other da 6, add "er" to the end of the da 4
yeah got it
did that help, cookie?
missy, i'm not getting the last part of your clue!
is that it
missyem, great clue for the st, thanks
yeah it did
that's all four of the da words cookie!
thank you
6/27

e + st 5 (a political unit bigger than a county)

Or 4/7...oops
ag 4/7: looks Indian to me, ag + first to letters of a laughing syllable
Hi everybody! only 2 to go & I'm getting tired of looking... st 7 and te5. Oh, ro 6/6 is singular of middle ro 5/14...sounds like lst syllable of Indian money (rupee)
the ag 5 that follows is a + gl 4 (happiness)
hi weegee!
Hi stid!

Thanks stid!!!
Thanks
st 7: s + number after nine + first two letters of where a car lives + eighth letter

sorry, joey
rats, I only have one OU word, the ou4/5, help please
two ou words are what you "should" do peri
if you go to the bottom of this page there are links to lists and lots of other helpful stuff -- Angelsong's Babble Page, Babblers Anon, Lickety..
can I get a clue for the ro 8 pls?
peri, do you have the opposit of in
?
the ou 4/7 is stupid. ou + dipthong in phone
found an ou6/21
the ou 5/16 adds a vowel to the 4/7
te 7/36?
feather, te 7 is plausible
don't remember what a dipthong is
one ou 6/21 is past tense of the other, the seven plurals the "current tense" ou 6
thanks for the st 7... and making me feel better about that last one that's nonexistent!!! phandmd: ro 8 rhymes w/loop.. loopy...loopier...even moreso
2 consonants that make one sound
the last ou 6/21 is to "view better" than someone else
okay, me = hungry & my mom's chatting, so I'll say au revoir, mes amies!!
found the ou4/7
Thanx weegee
au revoir, missyem! see you later/tomorrow!
so weegee are you done?
6 left! AT not the piano 1
6 left! AT not the piano 1
hiccup
at 6/21: to be "at" school, teachers take at**** -ance
at = go to, be at
gramma...... are you drunk?
nrkii, what's more fun for you? finding the words or cluing?
TY,stidmama
next, gramma?
stid, both fun! cluing makes me work a different part of my brain
missyem, why yes I am!
ok, i have no un words
feather? are you lost in thought?
lol, yep!
un 6/27: not capable
gave up on the te for the moment, the plausible one, couldn't fathom that
un 5, take that thing off your head
un 5/14: take one's head cover off, then plural for the un 6/24
feather te = number + "can"
gramma, I wanna catch up! So now I will leave Babbleland & have some wine.... or maybe a vodka tonic...... be good!
stid, you?
got em!
I like both, but get frustrated with finding sometimes -- I like cluing because I can use my "teaching" brain.
yep, I hear you
missyem, there is no way you could possibly catch me! I'm tallking years of practice.
sp 5/14? the first one
feather, sp = relaxing place plus HELLO
sp 5/14: totally useless. it's like the 6/24 preceeding, only change out the double vowel for a different single one
oh, right, sp***, i met one of those guys yesterday.....riiiiiight!
I take it back -- that word used to mean 'an algerican cavalryman in the french army'
*algerian* that is...
gramma? next word?
Hi, everyone. I'm back for my last 26 words. Just returned from seeing X Men 3
hey BGL! was it any good?
3 left....ah?
what are the numbers representing as tyou describe this puzzle? (5/14 for example)
my last one....re 5/14?
gramma, trying to keep ah*** of you is difficult!
(that was a clue, btw)
gramma, not behind
full steam AH***
genoboy: 5 is the number of letters in the word, 14 is the number of points in the word)
go gramma go!
go gramma go!
Well of course it is. Silly old woman!
thanks.
I did NOT hit the enter button twice! honest!
Hiccup!
re 5/14?
re 5/14: latin for queen
It was very good. Even though they say it's the last, they've definietly left room for future movies
I like it when movies leave room for the imagination at the end. I thought the Matrix series was like that...
genoboy, check out Angelsong's Babble Page at the bottom of this screen. Lots o' info.
thanks again.
well, I need to go pick up a kid from a friend's house. back later all -- have fun!
done!!!!!
I have yet to see the 3rd of that series... we even have the DVD and I haven't watched it
thanks for the help there at the end!
YAY featherbee! bye!
wow, and it's not even 10pm here
YAY FEATHER!!!!!
how about the pi 5? can I have clue for that too?
nevermind got it
Some fairs have p** eating contests... make it plural
evening all. Need some help, please. last two words and I am stumped. un 6/27 and the second ha 5/12 - the one after one happens with a phone call.

un - can't do
ha + spanish cheer

DONE! yipee,I'm so done for the entire weekend. We're leaving 1st thing in the morning for our cottage. No phone, no tv, no nothing ; but, water and woods and relaxation. I'd like to say I'll miss you all, but quite honestly, I will!
un = lose some headwear

I used the wrong form before
soap operas bgl
I don't know. I'll check
I figured it out...I hate when I miss words like that
Hi everyone....I am starting late....and I just read Musicmom's clue for the 9....Musicmom, can you help me more after the nongas engine part. I'm stuck. thanks....
Soap operas
jee --- try st5/10+ab4
The engine clue was for the sp5
un = lose some headwear...help with this clue?
take off your cap joey
oh no wonder I was clueless. thanks, I will work on the new clue...
Okay, that worked...thanks again.
Good evening all -- I just started about 15 ago and going strongish -- I will be asking for clues in a short bit I am sure :)
there are 50 st5/10s in the US
Good evening GW {{{}}}}}}Haven't seen you in a while.
((*musicmom*)) -- yeah, i know -- the grids have been a little to big for me to seriously consider the past few days
they have been very big. I have missed several
Hi GreyWoulf...how is the job situation? I have missed seeing you.
how many more do you need BGL=== can I help?
11 more, I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing beyond 6 ps and 5 ts
JW -- they had me fill out a stack of paperwork an inch thick (not exaggerating at all) today -- I should be permanent before the end of June :)
I sure hope so...what a long wait.
okay I'm still here. Nu3bers is on but I can clue
That sounds good GW you have waited a long time
th5/12
Musicmom, can you help with the 8s? I have the ha8/60 and that is all...
What does it come between. My word list is wonky again
th 5/12 ends with an e
Well, it's been just over three months, so I consider myself incredibly lucky to find a new job so readily my first time with a temp agency
got it. thanks
I'm going to refresh see if I can get the list back
I am glad you are keeping your positive outlook. That will serve you well.
Wheee... back again. Neighbor child dropped by. Here to give clues after stidmama gave me clue for st 7/40 that got me finished!! yeah!!
I need a th4/5 between the 5/12 and 4/8
I have a job that allows me to keep my family clothed, fed and happy and tons of friends who care about me -- how can I not have a postive outlook? --- the most important things in life are covered!
bgl, it's either "not this but th**"
or "not now but th**"
weegee - i'll take a clue for the st7/40! or else, when did stid give it and i'll see for myself
tu8 --- the piano is capable of holding tone
firefly, within last 10 -15 min...so elegant I won't try to repeat!!
thx, i
oops, i'll go look (hit the enter prematurely there)
Okay, I'm confused... I have both of those, I need one of the earlier ones... let me see
This is so incredibly irritating. I cannot clue once I get fireworks. Part of my list always disappears.
I'm going to have to start typing in Lickety's before my last work so I can help.
Okay, done with those th's
I'm trying BGL
Nevermind<G>
I know you're trying... :)
bgl, try changing the vowel of the "not now" th?
ro8 -- hot liquid eaten with crackers (change first letter) then add an even more so ending
how many words in total for this puzzle?
210 total
oh, ok....thanks
ha8 - one is related to very detestable characteristics and the other is where teens congregate
Thanks Musicmom, I see why that one was eluding me.
ugh I keep saying a word - I'm so sorry
tu4/7
rhymes with insect crap
Musicmom, maybe you better say the word again. I don't see it.
bgl, like what's in your mouth
Wow. there are some strange ones tongiht!
it is actually a four letter ending of lots of words today starting with ab
6 to go... all ps
yep this grid turned out to be a lot harder than I anticipated when I first looked at it
hi everybody
music, I had trouble avoiding that earlier as well
hi TO
there's a pu4/8 that rhymes with that tu you just had
then you can turn that into where the lions live
Boy, leave for minute and all of a sudden there's insect crap ...like what's in your mouth!!! LOL (really good clues though a bit fecal)
nrkii--- I think I have avoided it and then read my post and realize I used it
bgl, dont forget about the P + small dwelling and plural of same!
pa5/12
Okay, musicmom, one more 8....can you help me with the tu8 please?
bgl, start of the amoeba like pattern on shirts and ties
the piano is tu8 --- it will hold its tone
insect crap? *eyes chat log sideways*
beginning of an amoebic pattern on fabric
LOL nrkii
Got it, thanks
Hi temple!
THanks Musicmom, I tried it without the e, and got the 7, but for some reason, didn't think about adding the e.
there is pi that is the partner of a flower stemen - last letter
bgl, how's it looking now?
pistal
Fireworks!
Jee Whiz, I did the exact opposite with the TU 8 and 7!
YAY BGL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRAVO!~!! BGL --- okay going to go watch t.v. with Greg --- email the family please. I hope to be back on tomorrow

Good job BGL!

good night Musicmom, thanks for all of your help.
night john boy! night mary ellen!
No problem. FYI - I have received no e-mails today from the family.
G'night mm!! {hug}
Jee Whiz, you're probably right that we think alike!
I believe there's a kind of babble-think zone you get into after a while reading & giving clues
Yes!! only 99 to go :)
pistil
It would be scary, but I like how we think.
weegee, yes, and it causes you to catch on to the clues, but also to make the same mistakes
i have ha8, ro9, and tu 8 - what am i missing? clue, please?
jetx, look at the clue again...you missed something.
jetx, switch to other box :)
jetx, the p is more like past tense of "went to take a peepee" crudely
the first et anyone?
if we didn't like how we thought, the log would be a much quieter place!
weegee, i found the clue, and i got it - thanks for sharing!
there are two ha8s. One is where you go to be with friends.
ok, i am finally under ten - help me - ha 6/33
i'm always missing somthing....thanks

EB -- I have to admit that I am amazed myself -- but when I start slowing down someone mentions a clue that triggers a bunch more for me -- it's just that kind of grid tonight :)
rennie - i don't see no stinkin' sign : ) (resist eb, resist)...
my mom's in E. Irondequoit & bro lives in Greece
ooo - woulfie - you're tempting me...

how can I help Grey and TO?
i've sometimes thought of moving there...and i am wanting a night a havana ...wanted to see chris smither
nrkii -- give me a few more mins and I will be able to ask for clues -- actually have slowed down a bit due to chatting
I absolutely love living in Lambertville. My neighbors are wonderful! And tonight, I walked down the block to the volunteer fire department, and they were having their weekly barbeque, so I grabbed a burger and chatted with them, and it was so ... nice. Never lived in a place like this before.
sounds great! tourists don't bother you?
Oh!...I saw Steve King's 'Lambertville'......whoa! ;-)
In my neighborhood, most of the houses are side-by-side duplexes with the porches right on the street. So we see each other every day, and wave and chat and look out for each other.
nrkii --- you are about 45 mins away from without traffic --- and Lansdale, PA is very similar --- friendly folks, and mostly quiet streets
well nrk - if you lilke music, maybe we can meet at havana sometime...ginnie comps me tickets
hi all! can i get some clues?
Hey Fran!!
Yeah, ask me again mid-summer and I'll comment on the tourists. I THINK I'm far enough from the center of town for it not to be too bad (10 blocks) but who knows?
hey fran...
hi fran!
TO, sounds good.
hi renfield!
Fran! How can we help?
hi TO!
Hi Fran.....
well i must concentrate for a bit...will be lurking
i have 14 words to go, i guess start with a clue for ae7/36
flying hair product fran
i have only sp6/6 and there are 4 more!
to, change last two letters of the sp 6 to one vowel
sorry i mean sp4/6
also, take the 6, and remove the male 2nd person from it
nrk, does it start with the ae4/4?
ah. okay. start with restful place plus a vowel
fran, yes
and fran, end it with something between a solid and liquid
to, got the restful place plus vowel sp 4/5?

TO, now change last two letters (double vowel) to a different single vowel
fran, type of gas

gu5/16, the first one
lol, that's always how I feel!
i know what you mean woulf!
fran, the first one is like pretense, or disgu***
oh, i see nrk - it's the plural form!
yes temple, sorry
thanks nrk! i think i have mental blocks when a longer word is the first for a letter!
yeah, I hate that because you can't build, and you can't even fit it between things!
no apology! I kept trying all afternooon to make the singular!
be back in 1 min, gotta go get a liquid refreshment...

he 5/12: to steal, a bank he 5/12
ooo yeah. well i found one word. my work here is done. see ya'll lata. hope the movies good!

Back in a few -- gonna grab some ice cream

pina colada sorbet for me, please!
lol stid... congrats for finishing
thanks cathy -- I worked in spurts most of the day...
hey stid! *eyes food* * i am bnabbling to KEEP frome ating!
te6/21. please?
TO -- what WORDS do you need?
*hands celery stick to TO*
ooh, need that one too!
temple, that's the number after 9 plus a syllable that sounds like a symptom of an asthma attack
stid... they won't let us have internet access at work anymore, except for pre-determined sites... that put an end to any hope of me finishing this grid! i used to do it on my breaks etc.
ty stid - but i brushed my teeath to keep from eating
hello
te 6/21: number + letter opposite of me + "to be" third person singular
that's too bad cathy -- well, ask away, that's why I came back!
hi egm
hello egm
stid, I'll take the celery if you add peanut butter to it
cathy - you could print it off in the morning & then enter your words later...
chunky or smooth nrkii?
just a clue for the 9 letter word would be fab, thanks stid
with celery, smooth please
Eastern Blue! haven't seen you in forever! how are you?
eastern... now there's an idea!
(though the ice cream sounded better!)
smooth it is! *passes plate to nrkii* good choice, ma'am
ty stid!
cathy, if you can say it it is ST*******
cathy, able to be said
or st 5 + ab 4...
tongue stuck to top of mouth with peanut butter, hang on for next clue while I deal with situation...
st7/40 anyone?
GOT IT!
thank you so much
fran, I will defer to stid for that clue -- she has a brilliant one
st 7/40 is s + number after 9 + first two letters of where a car lives + eighth letter
ta dah!!!!!!
it was originally someone else's clue -- trying to remember if it was Fran...

clues for the 8's please....
woulf, start with et 6 that is a gas
hello to all.....
hi blaze....
Since I am not gridding, I really shouldn't be here muddying up the log......
then et 4 that is et + you and I
Hi Blaze!!!! Long time no see!
Shade, go for the big points, then do little ones... then ask for directions
no mud here
hi blaze
ok, settled in for the last 9
anyone have the up 7
Got em now
it is blaze!!!!
Hi Everyone!!
ha 8 is plural the ha 7/44
hello blaze!
the gas eluded me until just now cos I saw the clue earlier
debbinla, part of NY where Hillary lives is UP*****
ha 7/44 is ha 4/7 + "not in"
You should have had beans instead of ice cream, GW!
{{{{{*****Blaze*****}}}}}
thank nrkii
LOL mama
the next ha 8/55 is compound: ha 4/5 (opp of love) + "can"
oh, crap. no WONDER I wasn't seeing half the ha's. forgot about the other H
((((everyone)))
the tu 8 is also compound: music + can
any help on se 7/32?
the RO 8 is how you might describe the thickest fog, but replace the S with and R
Beans, beans, the musical fruit
Spoken like a true Babbler, Shade!!!!! LOL!!
ro 8 is stupid: the ro 4/6 like tomato s*** + "most" suffix
...can?
ep4 please?
me 2...can?
the more you eat...
engler
the more you toot.....
ep 4 = ep + first two letters of laugh sound
the more you toot...
if you can do something then you are A***
the better you feel...
so eat those beans for every meal!
ta da!
gu6?
"can" as in capable of...
....wow. that was kinda stupid.
thanks
finished the 8's...thanks!! : ) (the can was throwing me too....)
thanks stid
ty stid! : D
woulf, latin plural of gu5/16
gu 6 is plural of gu 5/16: a type of resist used in painting
get yer mind outta the gu***
now i forgot the clues
Shade -- not stupid, nothing is ever stupid in Babbleonia, except being down on yourself!!
yeah... what gw said
man, this board is all about adding on that a***, isn't it?
I put that gu6 in before I asked and it didn't take!! thanks, stid
some of it, yes, then you get out of those ten or so words... LOL
Well, I think I will let you good people to your hunt.... and go hibernate.
night mamabear!
later mamabear, take care!
nite mamabear
and, believe it or not, i JUST added it as a single word! with 6 to go!

k mama - see you tomorrow
nightie nite mama.... : )
G'nite mama!!!! I'll see you tomorrow night :) {{{HUG}}}
not me
i like your drivvle
i love drivvle
no mamabear, we like to have you dribbling on us *hands towel to nrkii* but don't stay up if you're too tired!
I am missing the block of lo's from 5/18 to 7/40
drivvle is at least 50 % of our motivation
mama -- you are never a pest!!
lo 5/18: a different spelling of scots for "lake"
woulf, the 5/12, 6/21, 5/12 sequence is all proper names
awwwwwww... you guys are the bestest!
gw: start with a scottish lake then monkey type
then the French King and variations lo 5/12, 6/21, 5/12
sorry gw - the lake then what nrkii said
ha 7/44?
and the last two lo's are where you might drink -- a cocktail LO**** or how you might rest -- in a LO**** chair
then to be lazy lo 6/27 and "one who" for the 7/40; also a type of sofa-like furniture
I think I'm even getting too tired to drivvle..... so have fun everyone and hopefully see you tomorrow! Asta la vista!!!! *waves*
bye mama!
Thanks folks!! - another grey square!!
thanks, nrkii - needed those too :)
Sleep well mama!!
tasty bananas
go Woulf go!
sweet dreams, mamabear!
ha 7/44 is where your gang passes time, or to pass time casually
* waves to mamabear* bye now!
ah, thanks!
or, to swing by a rope around your neck + opposite of IN
don't forget to plural!
The gods of the grid have taken their tribute tonight -- I just had to reenter a word I KNOW I entered earlier :D
I had a few of those today too, Woulf...
Woulf, I had at least one word sucked into the vortex today as well.

sweet, have almost killed the top 13 words
yes nrkii...cursed!
the ou's are killing me!!! I didn't realise how many there are!!!
I've always been able to remember which book on the shelf or where in the book, but don't ever ask me what somebody actually "said"...
how many words does everyone have?
me too! I could picture the words and their exact location!
ou, ou, ou-ooooh, cries the wolf...
26 left to go here, P&M
the silliest ou were the ou + diphthong 4/7 and the 5 after that adds a vowel at the end
woulf, 4 of them are compounds starting with opp of IN
nu 6?
and of course the ou "should" words...
consumed more, consume more, consumes more, has better view of
