12:30 am

12:38 am

I didnt know THAT was a word

12:38 am

Welcome Ramix. Our Babble world gets bigger by the day.

12:38 am

12:39 am

12:39 am

cool...

12:40 am

i dunno whether to start the grid. it's a big one, i know i wont finish

12:40 am

start it it will up stats

12:40 am

:P

12:41 am

Not looked at the total words until you mentioned them, Ram. 308. Biggish, I guess. With that size of grid you usually get half quickly, which then leaves you with an easily tacklet grid for the rest of the day.

12:41 am

i guess so...might as well. its not as if i have anything else to do at 10:43pm anyways

12:41 am

*tackled

12:42 am

ok, i'm at 178 & really going to stop now

18 to halfway!

12:42 am

so - goodnite/day everyone & good luck !

12:43 am

i have 122 words

12:43 am

jacula, thing is this is the only time i get to babble. so if i dont finish before i go to bed, thats it. next time i log on it'll be a new grid

12:43 am

231... has lickety put up his clues yet?

hk - my bass already is made from a tree!

12:43 am

bibi helen

12:43 am

12:43 am

i will go check

12:43 am

lol melon !!

12:43 am

hints??

12:44 am

nope

12:44 am

Ramix - if you have time between finding words, can you spare a moment to tell us about yourself? Are you a native Ghanaian? If a go suddenly, forgive me. A thunderstorm is trying to start here in UK and I may have to turn my computer off if it gets too close.

12:44 am

*sniffle* Mr Pres... can you talk to your hubby about that?

12:45 am

re9&10 what comes of it

12:45 am

Jai, what is wrong ??

12:45 am

sure. let's see...well i'm sorta like a mutt. my dad's ghanaian, my mom's half portuguese half nigerian, and i was born in croydon, but lived half my life in ghana and the other half spent between the uk and usa

12:46 am

wow...thats awesome

12:46 am

Need clues.. withdrawl pangs starting... must... feed...addiction...

12:46 am

thanks mrp!

12:46 am

wow ramix - sounds like you've lived an exciting life

12:46 am

ramix - that sounds like some sort of childhood!

12:47 am

As in, wow, er, etc.

12:47 am

LOL!! He will be back! He is being a good daddy as it is public holiday today... he is at the movies!

12:47 am

ramix - my sister-in-law just did a documentary on Ghana that's been getting a lot of play

12:47 am

ramix, how many languages do you speak? :)

12:47 am

I hope it was a great childhood!

12:48 am

Nooooooo! Protests abound! Clues before kids!

12:48 am

wow ls1 - that IS cool!

12:48 am

NNNNNoooooo!!!! clues before kids!!! Oh wait... no, good daddies are the best. Yay good daddy! Don't let him collect $200 or pass go whne he gets home...

12:48 am

MrP - You've kicked Lickety up the bum today then? LOL.

12:48 am

er...just english, french and 5 local african languages laptha. ls1, was the documentary shown on the travel channel?

12:49 am

Correctamundo Jac!! you know me well!

12:49 am

no it was a political documentary on the elections.

12:49 am

jacula, it was up to a point, but the downside is that i really didnt stay one place long enough to establish roots...

12:49 am

ihave a friend from ghana

12:49 am

Indeed I do seem to, MrP!:-)

12:49 am

i have 163 - thanks for the clues to the re 9 & 10

12:52 am

oh noooooo mrp

12:52 am

oops :))

12:53 am

ramix - I had a feeling you would say that. I can onlhyy think, given the stories I've been told over my 49 years, that parents think they are doing the right thing. Hey! There's still that Philip Larkin poem to fall back on, if all else fails... they fu** you up, your Mum and Dad. They don't mean to, but they do etc.

12:53 am

:) exactly jacula.

12:53 am

First I typed a WORD, and then I typed my apology in the add word box, and it said, "Oh, crap, pass the damn fish again" is not in the dictionary"!!!!!!!

12:54 am

nope - i'm going to bed - tired -good nite everyone (mrp - tx anyway)

12:54 am

OMG... My mom just told me that "oh crap pass the damn fish" was not found in the dictionary

12:54 am

Or else you could fall back on those other parent-blaming type thingeys that led me to drinking and internetting... BLAME THE MOTHER!

12:54 am

ididn't get the zeus ones

12:54 am

nite helen

12:54 am

how many words today plz

12:55 am

yup u know it. it's all mom's fault!!! :)

12:55 am

hello all - I'll never finish this one because I have to go out early tomorrow evening so for me there are only about 6 hours left, and I have other stuff to do-- but -- i'll enjoy a peek anyway.

12:55 am

308 edmp

12:55 am

Yup! I say that as a norm now, even if the milk's run out. 'Blame the mother!'

12:56 am

My kids seem appalled by that. LOL.

12:56 am

ta

12:56 am

Poor innocents!

tx, prez, only knew the zeussian words as proper nouns - or with a zing!

12:56 am

well isnt that what moms are for? to be blamed for everything that goes wrong?

12:56 am

it goes for grandmothers too... we are just bigger mothers....

one more, just one more & i'm halfway, can claim my hold on mediocrtiy & get the heck to bed!

12:58 am

Blaze - well the grandmothers 'condoned' the archaic ways of the mother's fathers. LOL.

12:58 am

ramix - the chat goes so fast, but didn't you say you were in Portland or something? And why are you now wherever you are?

12:59 am

ok, 195 and turning off the light--night, all!

12:59 am

I am not sure of condoned but definitely put up with lots of sh** just to have more..bestowed upon them... LOL

12:59 am

yes in portland...i did my masters here and liked the pacific northwest so much i stayed

1:00 am

your masters in what, ramix?

1:00 am

well 2 masters, msc in information systems and an mba

1:00 am

My great-grandfasther had my great-grandmother (who actually went to work in the early 1900's and earned more than HE did!) iron his neswpaper because it had been creased by the paperboy inserting it into the letterbox. Not to waste time, she ironed out the curls in her long auburn hair between its pages. *|Fist punching air now saying Go LILY!'

158 words - it's been---- BYE!

1:01 am

good night, everyone

1:01 am

bye melonhead...sleep well

nite, uneaixoise - are you from aix?

1:01 am

Jac... oh how far we have come.....

nite ramix

1:02 am

so here is my question... how come the ta8 word is a word but yet, his father, zeus is not??

nite ping. - - - & - - out.

1:02 am

Whew, ramix! Brainy!

1:02 am

can any of you use the ta8 word in a sentance without it being a proper noun?

1:02 am

melon, I studied there and went back later to live for awhile--met my ex in Aix--HAH--definitely time to get some sleep! :-)

lol, aixie! zzzzzzzzzzzzz...........

1:03 am

not really jilibus, just had a lot of time on my hands and i figured i might as well do something with it

1:03 am

the ta 8 is a type of case for holding wine....

1:03 am

Blaze - have we? I see my daughter paying £160 for ceramic hair straighteners now. It wouldn't matter to the guy who really loves her ( who we, all of her family can see) if she was fuzzy, curly., straight or bald. But... hey, that's life!

1:05 am

wow...jacula do you have a euro sign on your keyboard>

You have a pound key?? were is my pound key?

1:05 am

I was just thinking of all the manual labor and slaving over a mans wants and desires.....

1:05 am

lol. Mrp...

1:05 am

melon - do you have a connection to aix? i'm going there this fall

1:05 am

Angela - yes, I think I have a euro sign on here, But why?

1:06 am

idk...everyones keyboards are sooo different

1:06 am

just wondering, I am bored

1:07 am

i cant find the ta10

1:07 am

or ta9

1:07 am

Men can be so much work! I see my daughter embarking on that path now and I want to help and advise her. Sometimes she asks me, but she goes her own blind, young way anyway.

hi jacs!

1:08 am

Morning everyone! And I can conjure up a € and a $ and £ and I bet I could find a yen sign in here too! ;)

1:08 am

huh, my euro sign doesn't seem to show up properly :(

¿

1:09 am

the key is to NOT do for them what they can do for themselves....

1:11 am

Blaze - true! Unfortunately, since she got locked up in a nuthouse and made to face herself and her demons, my daughter now thinks she 'has' to save all of the rest of us 'imperfect' human beings... which leeads her to choosing unsuitable partners.

1:12 am

Hey Temple how be ye?

1:12 am

wow...havent seen a finland yet

1:12 am

I just wish she could SEE that the one guy she should be with is the one that still supports her and hugs her through all her many mishaps.

hey chix! : D

1:13 am

ugh...I have a new icon pic...but it is hard to look at...

1:13 am

Oh my.... hopefully she will liberate herself and see the that good guys are positive people...

1:13 am

Temple you on yahoo yet?

1:13 am

Hiya TO. Didn't see you earlier.

no chix ie! just got back from weekand away...

1:14 am

is anyone else having problems accessing the list?

1:14 am

we did some marathon Lit. this weekend...

1:14 am

idk if i should use it

1:14 am

hello temple

1:15 am

I am off for rest and food... see you later

hello, its! : )

1:15 am

good by blaze

1:15 am

i finished yesturdays puzzle!

1:15 am

The thunder is starting to sound serious here. If it gets more serious I will be logging out and off.

1:16 am

owch!!!!!!!

its: is that the first time?

1:16 am

I work late tomorrow night. Can I finish the puzzle before I leave for work?? 75 words in 14 hours!? The pressure!!

1:17 am

Shirin - Sorry! No idea. Old timer here who doesn't acceas list until few words are needed to complete.

1:17 am

ok, i will try later on to see if its updated. thanks jacula

1:18 am

yup

1:18 am

i dont use the lists either.

1:18 am

dont look at my icon....its too disturbing

well done! so what do you think of over 300 words? X /

1:18 am

I only go to the list when I'm utterly and completely stuck

1:19 am

so how do you know what words are the 9ers and so forth?

1:19 am

usually some one posts clues for them in the log anyways

1:19 am

shirin, i just wait till i stumble upon them, or maybe ask for a clue from a babbler

1:20 am

Or you work it out, these days, from the Pro Stats on Babble.

1:20 am

I see. Well go luck ti the listless babblers!

1:20 am

clue for the 1st N in the 4th row

1:20 am

heh! There's a past tense for a naughty word on the board today. :)

1:21 am

hi chiquitas!!!!!

1:21 am

Hey! We're not an4/4 about those kinds of words here!

1:21 am

what's the icon theme today?

1:21 am

hello kierlex, I am ANgela

jacs, i've decided on a new philosophu: life is too short to go listless...hello kierlex!

1:21 am

things made from trees

1:21 am

did you get what they call the smart kids at school, itsonme?

1:22 am

Things made from trees

1:22 am

cool, thanks...

1:22 am

Sometimes, and this is NOT a kick at Lickety, I do think the younger Babblers would just prefer it it they were given a full word list. I really cannot see what challange there is in that. Also, if no challenge exists, what is thew point of playing?

1:22 am

I didnt see that clue, but thanks I got it

1:22 am

How do you play

1:23 am

*challenge

1:23 am

omg - your icon has me really creeped out itsonme - i had to look

1:23 am

jacula i kinda feel the same way. after all it's not a traditional word search game but more scrabble based

1:24 am

so i typed planet and it didn't count...why?

1:24 am

Exactly, ramix.

1:24 am

bob, it just doesn't work in the puzzle...

1:24 am

Why?

its: what is your icon?

1:25 am

the letters have to touch each other

1:25 am

I have to agree, Jacula I like to get as many words as possible before I jump over to Lickety's list. If I'm working with my mom, usually we get to that sticking point quicker than if I were working alone, but once there, I look for the list. I figure 234 words is a good point at which to start looking for Lickety's pretty little announcement :-) (btw, Knut is saying this, not Jai)

1:25 am

got it.Tthanxs

1:26 am

Hi all

1:27 am

We're like Siamese twins...two-headed Babblers 1000 miles apart (Jai)

1:27 am

200 words ddown!

1:27 am

strand

1:27 am

wow, angelsong

1:27 am

you know it is late when it confuses me! (says knut)

1:27 am

holy moly angelsong@

1:27 am

!

1:28 am

We have 233...(Jai)

1:28 am

actually 235, mum

1:29 am

I TOLD YOU NOT TO LOOK! Its very very hard on the eyes...ouch...dont look! `ouch`

1:29 am

k, kiddo, keep up the good work.....:o)))))

1:29 am

where did you get it itsonme

i don't want to but now i am intrigued...can u tell me what it is?

1:29 am

wow 308 words, at least these big ones make you feel productive!

1:29 am

google

1:30 am

For myself - and I do do it by msself most of the time, because my family all know that intruding ony my Babble is like filling in my partially completed crossword, I have to say I do it alone. Mind you, my other half being dyslexic clinches words for me at times, if he's there. Why? Because he finds words I'd never have dreamed of spelling 'like that'!

1:30 am

its a splinter....ouch

1:30 am

ouch, itsonme. I've seen that before, wasn't it a motorcycle wreck or something

1:30 am

a bad splinter

1:31 am

a very badly located splinter

1:31 am

is that person alive?

1:31 am

idk...

1:31 am

Why couldn't we have a little grid today! I have so much to do and now I'm stuck plowing through this...

1:31 am

lol, i doubt it

1:31 am

Gee my icon is going to be the talk of the town :P

1:31 am

I suggest that you change it itsonme as it is in rather bad takste and Dr_G might block you access to babble as some will find it offensive.

1:32 am

I like working on it alone as much as I like working on it iwth my mom. The cool thing about working with my mom is that it doesn't feel like we're 1000 miles apart... and she has a different vocab than me. (I won't say bigger)

1:32 am

okay...brb

1:32 am

it is quite disturbing, lol

1:32 am

Jacula, that's what Meg and I found out! Our minds work differently, and we seem to find different words from each other...we also do our own thing as well...(Jai)

1:33 am

least

1:34 am

Yeah, Knut likes ar4/4 all the time and I NEVER see it! LOL

1:34 am

sorry

1:34 am

there we go

1:34 am

it still there!

1:34 am

much more soothing itsonme

1:34 am

I was going to post something after its changed her iconand posted a word there instead

1:35 am

:P Its okay Nef

1:35 am

Thanks for changing that icon, itsonme. It reminds me too much of work and this is supposed to be a relaxation thing for me. :)

1:36 am

what do you do, nef?

1:36 am

lol

1:36 am

yeah, one box grayed out

1:36 am

I'm a nurse (of course)

1:36 am

ahh, interesting

1:37 am

in the e.r.?

1:37 am

Actually, I chatted with Dr. God about working on the puzzle tohgether, and he/she said that it's whatever floats your boat...some take it very seriously, some have great fun, and some are in between...and we're all family.... (((Babblers)))) (Jai)

1:37 am

No. ICU

1:38 am

that must be hard to see

1:38 am

how do you talk to Dr_God?

1:38 am

email the link

1:38 am

i think ar 4/4 has been in the last 4 puzzles

1:39 am

and some variation of bosums, too! LOL (Jai)

a word of caution: plural EVERYTHING in this grid...

1:39 am

Amen, Owl!

1:39 am

bosums? you mean gazongamelons! so much more fun to say gazongamelons!

1:40 am

DR_God IS A 'hE', BTW.

1:40 am

*hE

1:40 am

good nite all, I am going to bed.

1:40 am

who thanks 72 temple, i just went through my list and the plurals really helped

1:40 am

goodnight Shirin

1:41 am

i mean whoa, not who

1:41 am

nite-nite, shirin....:o)

1:41 am

Good night Shirin, don't bite the bed bugs!

1:41 am

I have the ta 10...anyone know which is the other 10?

1:41 am

Knut has it

1:41 am

any clues please angelsong?

1:42 am

Well, I am still up and the storm seems to have passed.

1:42 am

angel ta9/60 and ta10/77

1:42 am

the best clue is the one 72 gave- plural everything- either es or s

1:42 am

se i think or er or re yeah, it is re, i think

1:42 am

sorry re 9/60 and re10/77

1:42 am

hints on them??

1:42 am

I can stop the panic mode now. lol.

1:43 am

I'm not sure I can clue it, maddie :) but the ta 10/77 is a plural of the ta 8/45

1:43 am

re + su6/21 + consonant

1:44 am

So gladthat I don't do lists! LOL.

1:44 am

Hey, Meg, where is our 10?

1:44 am

did you all get splashes?

1:44 am

You can be farmore relaxed abpout seeking words if you don't do the l;ist thing until absolutely stuck.

1:45 am

drool

1:45 am

or something that happens as a consequence

1:45 am

refresh, Mom

1:45 am

boboy, we try not to give out words....it's a Babble no-no

1:45 am

bobboy don't put words in the chat - only clues

1:46 am

sorry, first time!

1:46 am

Is it really about who complertes it the quickest?

1:46 am

droo

Maddie, did you get the 'dinnerware' clue??????

3:18 am

i dont get it jemma!

3:18 am

Neither!!!!?????

3:19 am

If you don't get the clue, then maybe you should just move on and try to find other words for yourselves - that is the main point of the game. I now have 64 words.

3:20 am

ok jemma nobody cares

3:20 am

Good Point!!

3:22 am

I'm stuck!!Can anyone help me???

3:23 am

hi everyone

3:23 am

hi saphyre!

3:23 am

Jemma - there are lots of 4 letter words. Just concentrate! Look at the top right hand corner and you should get a few. Then take other 'squares' and work on them.

3:23 am

hey saphyre!

3:23 am

Good morning saphyre!

3:24 am

how is everyone?

3:24 am

Lickety, my goodness, there is no end to your inventiveness! Wonderful job!

3:24 am

I'm very well, saphyre - and you?

3:24 am

I'm trying Haz, but concentrating is not one of my strong points!!

3:25 am

Hey Jemma, I think I just got it...if you read from the bottom left corner up 4 letters + when you don't get somewhere on time...

3:25 am

Sorry if I sound llike a cross school teacher, but you should really be able to find words yourself this morning. No chat for ten minutes!

3:25 am

3:32 am

Doing a good job !

3:32 am

Haz, i have 35 words, pretty good for me!

3:33 am

Great - that's because you are concentrating. Now, have you found a series of words beginning with pl4/4, meaning a request? Build up on that to see how many you can get.

3:34 am

I already have 5!!

3:34 am

3:35 am

but i have 7!!

3:35 am

Ok everyone, i have to go for dinner. See ya Maddie, Aleksia, Eden, Saph and Haz. Thanks for beeing a gr8 teacher!! LOL (-:

3:37 am

bye Jemma

3:37 am

Good - now, change around a pl5/10 to get somethin you would eat your dinner off. Pluralise it to get pl6/21. Then put a three letter word meaning final beginning with e, IN FRONT. Then pluralise. You should now have en8/50 and en9/66. Take the instructions one step at a time and concentrate.. Too late!

3:38 am

thanx saphyre didnt have that one

3:38 am

Enjoy your dinner, jemma.

3:38 am

any more clues

3:38 am

Buh-Bye, oh and Haz, i will. you can count on that!!Bye

3:38 am

The opposite of minus can be made into a plural.

3:39 am

Bye Jemma!

3:41 am

thank you Haz1558

3:43 am

You're welcome alexsia. Now have you found some words that can be made up from a** - what is left over from a fire? you can find a spotty thing, a hurrying word, a thing you wear round your waist, and a thing that is used to whip people. All of these can be made into plurals.

3:43 am

i have a good clue...what do you say when you as for something?

3:44 am

That IS a good clue, well done!

3:44 am

thank you

I looked up Haz in the dictionary - to watch over, nourish, and protect Good going!

3:44 am

theres also a plural

3:44 am

hey again everyone!

3:45 am

3:53 am

bye aleksia!

3:53 am

If you have the st5/12 word which means to be on your feet, add an extra letter to get a word that can mean - a beach, or to be left behind. You can make the word plural.

3:53 am

bye maddie26

3:54 am

bye!

3:55 am

And for an impressive Russian emperor word, change round the first two letters of st4/4 - the shining heavenly thing.

3:55 am

3:57 am

3:58 am

3:58 am

Do you have the le5/12 - used to control a dog? It can be a plural as well, le7/32

3:58 am

3:59 am

en7/32 - literally means without finish.

3:59 am

4:25 am

ty Haz i only missed one of them!

4:26 am

please can i have some help

4:26 am

That's good. It's nice when you can build up a series of words.

weird, start looking for the four letter words, and build on those, there are heaps of plurals off most of them

4:27 am

weird - concentrate first of all on getting four letter words. look at the top right hand corner and see how many you can get from there. Then move over the grid, again using squares of four, and work your way through, trying all the combinations.

4:28 am

thanks both of you guys

4:28 am

ok well i better go now!! bye all! and.....HAPPY BABBLING!!!!!!!!!! well i have made a new record of words!! my most words in playing this game is........109!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!! (and thats how many i got today!!!!!) bye for now!!!!!!!

In which case they are very good, I thought they were much older than that.

6:41 am

Katie I was talking about the gaggle of Australian school kids who have joineed us recently and are trying to figure out how to play with us.

6:42 am

Eva - I've seen them a few times now & they are very sweet, thought the clues for to*****w were hysterical the other day.

Haz was wonderful with them!! She was so protective and very helpful!! I love Haz!! She was the queen mother!!

6:42 am

Wow, mrpresident!! Dragged my sleepy self to my computer to find your amazing string of clues! Very nice ones!! Thanks.

6:42 am

The larger grids are usually easier than the small ones. seems odd, but that's been my experience.

6:43 am

Angelsong - I agree with you up to a point but got to 180 listless and have now ground to a stop :)

I am the clue master!! I clue for anyone, HONK and I clue!

6:44 am

responses to kids their age vary a lot-some of us find them very endearing, love the energy, the betwixt and betweeness. Others find that rather overwhelming.

6:44 am

katie-who's the furry one?

wow... betwixt is a great word! (storing in memory)

6:45 am

wow, over 70 S's. hi all, just gonna write down this grid and take it to work.

6:46 am

we haven't had it in a grid yet(-:

6:46 am

Fuggles is my hamster, my hot sulking hamster at the moment, I play quite late at our time so quite a few people know him by proxy

6:46 am

Hi Bryan

a proxy hampster works for me!

6:46 am

catch you later

6:46 am

I used the list very little on this grid. for a wonder.

6:46 am

LOL MrP

Angel, did you like lickety's changes??

6:47 am

what a handsome hampster! Looks almost like a guinea pig. Is he unusually large or is that jsut the photo. Merp would love to play with Fuggles, but I fear the outcome would be tragic.

Merp would have a bleeding lip, by the size of that hampster!

6:50 am

Fuggy is a little sensitive about his weight since Mari last saw him and said he would need to go on a diet. He visits Mari (and her 3 cats) when I go away, I bring him in a carry case and they think its takeout

6:50 am

anyone know the first ar4/4

6:50 am

okay, I give again...any clues mrp for the top n? I only have the birth one that usually comes after pre

LOL katie, Take Out Hampster! I love it!

6:50 am

nevermind, got it now

6:50 am

jojo-do you have the usual rude one?

na5 up your nose!

6:51 am

LOL katie!!! Does he come with duck sauce? Merp would spend the entire time trying to "liberate" Fuggy.

6:52 am

jeez-right there in front of my nose! Stilll need one more

6:52 am

Hobbit would just sit on him LOL. She does that to my poor kitten

na5 rhymes with da5 sweet dried fruit

6:53 am

Fuggy is usually a little stressed when he comes home, but not as much as mum who has to keep the cats away from him.

or a string of men with roses and a hopeful look

6:53 am

thanks so much. That's the end of the ns

6:54 am

Sort of like being taken for a play date with a group of serial killers.

6:54 am

hello everybody

6:54 am

hi aleksia!

6:55 am

LOL Eva, he likes it better when I leave him at home and get the cleaner to come in and feed him, but I like to think the challenge of staying alive makes him appreciate me more :)

my rodents had to go sleepy bye!! Very sad and the end of an era! They were the rulers of the animal kingdom! I miss my tommy and celia!

6:57 am

Eva did you tell some one that i was sweet today, thats so nice of you

you girls have been angelic!

7:01 am

son of zeus clue please?

7:03 am

Hi all

7:04 am

hi Tiny

7:04 am

mrpresident have i been angelic

7:04 am

hi aleksia

7:06 am

alt. to son of zeus is something out of reach which tempts you.

so angelic, here is a clue tr5 & 7 when you take out the rubbish, you take out the tr5 and plural

7:07 am

Tiny- at school all my friends say your cute

7:08 am

Gotta go to lunch now. BBL when I've finished work :-)

7:08 am

how do they know me

Hi Everyone! Good grid?

7:09 am

thanks MrP

7:09 am

they say they talk to you

7:09 am

hi lickety

7:09 am

who are they

7:09 am

hi lickety, how are you?

7:09 am

ty mrp didnt have that one

I'm good - but tired - long weekend. And you?

7:10 am

doing good.

7:11 am

nice grid today

nice and big, looks like nice letters too

7:11 am

I got 200 in the first hour and a half

it has been a while since we had a nice flowing grid

7:11 am

down to 85 left

7:12 am

nothing really weird yet :)

spahyre - you sound like you and babble are one ;-)

7:16 am

addicted :)

7:16 am

I'd be lost without your list when I get down to the last 50 though

the list is looking wonderful... now it has the propensity to attract more babblers!

7:20 am

haven't used the add a word yet but I will today I'm sure :)

just happy to be part of it all! Go without lists, I get that too - and might be helping in that area too.

7:22 am

hi aleksia-sorry I didn't reply before but had to take a phone call. yes, I did say that you were sweet this morning. I really appreciate your making the effort to play with us.

7:22 am

mrp, what rodents did you have?

7:23 am

same thing for me lickety-I usually wait until I'm below 40 and then go for my security blanket-your list

I had two rats... my babies from a baby we got nearly 4 years ago! They got old and consequently got sick and now they are gone!

7:24 am

what's a rat's normal life span?

a caged rat is 2-3 years

7:26 am

don't think I could do that. It's hard enough to lose a cat every 19 years or so. Although I guess if you know from the start then maybe you don't get as close?

19 years! that is good innings for a cat!

7:27 am

My older cat is over 17 now

7:27 am

that's because they're indoor cats

7:27 am

yeah 100 words

it was very very hard when we lost Lia, our 9 year old cat... to a vet accident! You have no idea what a shock that is!

7:28 am

thats horrible mrp

7:29 am

I am so sorry MrP that is so sad

Yes - Lia was very special to us, and 1 year before her death she was in an accident

7:29 am

Our baby, Tinkerbella is only 1 1/2

and went through 8 weeks of a leg cast

7:29 am

I remember your talking about that. What a heartbreak! We've had several close calls with Merp because of his tendency to urinary stones, and his kidneys are showing the very beginnings of a bit of stress-but he is taking natural supplements and the vet seems to know what he is doing.

7:29 am

ahh that must have been hard

We had dealth with life threatening choices a year before she went as a freak accident

7:30 am

any clues on aa4/5

It was just the most awful thing after all she had been through! we loved her dearly and still miss her terribly

7:30 am

oohs & aa**

Clue : went you get a major realisation.

7:30 am

dude, men go aa** after a pint

7:30 am

oohs and aa**

7:31 am

Geroge Carlin has a wonderful routine about pets....says essentially that when you adopt a pet you sign yourself up for grief. It's true, but also true about all of life, about allowing ourselves to care for anythign and anyone.

7:31 am

thank you : )

7:31 am

The 17 year old cat (Puffers) was lost for over a year and one day she just turned up again. We've kept her inside since then

Pets are great for kids in that way - having experience with life, love and death. It's all inevitable.

7:32 am

very true

7:32 am

mrp-is it true that one can really make 3 words from thatbottom o?!

saphyre - wow!

1 year!

7:33 am

Any clues on the en? I can't seem to make it work.

7:33 am

my daughter was 3 when we got her and spent a year walking from street to street looking for her

7:33 am

saphyre-how bizarre! Did she ever tell you where she'd been? Sounds like someone took her in. Maybe she has another family....they shamelss hussy!

7:33 am

on her 18th birthday Puffers came home

7:33 am

en7/32 just goes on and on and on...

7:34 am

She looked well fed but dirty

7:34 am

thanks spellit

7:34 am

..and on and on..

lia was a beautiful cat - we called her princess lia because she walked, ran, and freak jumped with poise. She also had air about here - and didn't stand down her royal standings through the thick and thin of it.

7:34 am

Do you have farms near you?

7:35 am

en8/50 sounds like the last thing you put on the table and en9 is plural

7:35 am

She grew up in the country but she got lost down in Myrtle Beach where my ex lives

7:35 am

lickety-do you have any photos of lia?

7:35 am

I

7:35 am

I've got the en 7. Now I have to think about setting the table.

Eva, I am going to get lia's pic now and put it on my icon

7:36 am

My back is really starting to ache, so I'll give it a few more minutes and then move on to the rest of my day.

7:36 am

hi all :) back for my last 52 ...

7:36 am

We can make this an unofficial lia remembrance day

7:36 am

Puff is part Russian Blue - a blue gray color

7:36 am

Merk - the last illustration in a book may be called an en******.

7:36 am

any clues on the al5/5 please

7:37 am

al 5 to change

7:37 am

sorry-meant mrp, but you knew that

of course!

7:37 am

al5/5 in Europe you can climb these or ski down them

7:37 am

that's al4/5 of course

7:38 am

well spotted thanks spellit : )

7:38 am

tell me when you've got the photo up so I know to refresh

7:38 am

en 8 Are you allowed to describe the third letter to me?

ok, will do! am just finding the best one now!

7:39 am

merk-d

7:39 am

Merk - last item, the en* of the line.

7:40 am

good morning, fellow babblers-----going to put the coffee on

7:40 am

Yes Please

7:40 am

hi anniebrook

7:40 am

Whit and one

7:41 am

hi Anniebrook

7:41 am

Thanks, I've got them. You'd think I'd have learned to have my coffee first.

7:41 am

Good afternoon all. I'm eating lunch and trying to find some more words.

7:42 am

Later, everyone. 73 to go.

7:43 am

hi Haz

7:43 am

Australia about to play in World Cup, I'm off to watch. Seeya!

7:44 am

bye lickety

7:44 am

M3-re10/77 & ta10/77

7:45 am

thanks eva x

7:50 am

ta clue please?

7:50 am

CJ, which ta? There are lots of them

ok, I have lia's picture up! RIP

7:50 am

sorry Ta10

7:52 am

oh my - she was beautiful!

7:53 am

She's gorgeous.....what an ethereal creature! And I think she looks very much like a feminine version of Merp. They could be sibs. She looks like she had a lot of Norwegian Forest Cat in her. related to Main Coon

she was beautiful, and a beautiful soul too! It brings tears to my eyes that she is gone! I wish just adorable and I miss her so much...

7:54 am

beautiful

7:54 am

very regal looking :)

mrp and I got lia just after marriage, and she's been through 4 house moves, 2kids + lots of other stuff

rest in peace Lia

7:55 am

mrp-have you gone to my profile to get a bigger look at Merp-their facial markings are identical except for the little extra smudge that Lia had. And I'm sure that life with you was a wonderful one

Eva, when I see your pusscat, I think of Lia!

7:56 am

Eva your picture doesn't enlarge when i go to your profile

7:56 am

there is a buddhist chant which sometimes helps me when I am sad about a lost animal, or personb: "May all beings be happy, may all being be peaceful, may all beings be free from suffering".

7:57 am

saphyre-it's bigger than in the chat log though, right?

7:57 am

no, not on my end atleast

7:57 am

Hi all... I'm stuck at 231 words this morning. NAyone have a hint for the 9 or 10?

7:58 am

hmmmm....very odd.

I get a knot in my throat, it is intolerable that she was taken from us! She is happy and peaceful and free from suffering... I miss her all the same.

7:58 am

doesnt enlarge for me either eva... mornin babblers!

7:58 am

Hi evanadine

7:58 am

7:59 am

rainy day in MD evanadine

7:59 am

good grid today... I cranked through the first 200 or so... fading now.

8:00 am

EvaN - how ya doing? how was the party? did you avoid the set up snare?

8:00 am

Looks like Lian had a bit more self control at the food bowl than Merp does(-: It's fine to miss her....keeps your heart open. Just now that she's okay, that she was blessed to know you and be loved by you, that your life was enriched, and that you are lucky to be someone who can feel so deeply, even if it hurts.

8:00 am

indeed it is saphyre -- halting the progress on my new floors too!

8:00 am

MRP!!!!!!!!!

good morning... :)

8:00 am

8:00 am

8:01 am

{{{nut!!}}}

8:01 am

8:01 am

8:13 am

any clues for the ar5/10 i have the rude one

8:13 am

just give her a kiss on the cheek and tell her you love her, that should disarm her long enough to make your escape.

8:14 am

only if you want to kill her

8:31 am

ta10 is a plural. it's a king of greek mythology. it builds off the ta8/45. The re10 is aslso a plural of the re9/60; think of an outcome.

9:58 am

9:58 am

TA10 is a greek king

9:58 am

with a bit added on

9:59 am

ty

aloisi and cahill

10:00 am

way to go austrailia

10:00 am

Re10 is what a Re6/21 that Australia won plus and insects at the end of it

10:01 am

I am really happy for australia, first time ever in the history of world cup final! ok, I am finished!! yay australia... never say never

10:01 am

could you elaborate on the greek king?

10:02 am

yeah...that greek king thing is hard

10:02 am

think of a hairy spider and it sort of sounds like that hurshy

10:03 am

i dont have it, but when people clue it it doesnt really help me

10:03 am

erm mrp that wasnt the final

10:03 am

ok that gives me about 6 letters :)

10:03 am

i have it, let me think of another clue, hurshy and angela

10:03 am

it is the world cup final 32! sorry I didn't elaborate

10:04 am

oh no wait i don't even have the right first 6

10:04 am

they have been playing for 2 years to get to this point

10:04 am

hmm, can I can another clue on the re 621 word?

10:04 am

or should I have said "World Cup Finals"

10:04 am

re+us4/5

10:05 am

all good! bye for now!

10:05 am

re6/21 is the outcome of something, and re9 is adj of it, re10 pls that

10:05 am

the ta8/45 is a Greek guy who sinned against the gods and was punished by being forever unable to reach his food or drink. The 10 is pl of him.

10:05 am

first part of hairy spider minus the ra then the rude word An4 instead of the n change it for an L then 'es'

10:05 am

ok, the easiest way is the clue the ta 8 ( the ten is plural). if something is exciting, it is ta*******. keep the first 6 letters, add abbreviation for my native country

10:05 am

From his name comes a common word meaning something you want that's just out of reach.

10:06 am

That word usually ends in -izing.

10:06 am

10:06 am

Thank you for the re clues, got em now

10:06 am

vicuna, you are far more eloquent than i am this morning!

10:07 am

thanks vi, and all the others who attempted clues :)

10:07 am

yay thanks abe i got it!

10:07 am

hmmm but that means i still need a 9...

10:07 am

Also, take off his beige-colored beginning and you get a 5/12 and pl 7 combo.

10:07 am

10:07 am

I need help with the last dr 5/14 and dr 6/24 please

10:07 am

10:08 am

and plural

10:08 am

thanks vicuna

10:08 am

yw !!!

10:08 am

what's the ha6/21 after the ha4/5 that's like a deer

10:08 am

Greetings, everyone.. big fat grid today, I see..

10:08 am

why in the world is the long ta word not a proper name?

10:09 am

pabtrek - as it comes before the plural, there are only so many things it CAN be...

10:10 am

hey aloyisius. grid is large but kind

10:10 am

i know hurshy but apparently i'm blind to what it could be i've been monkeytyping all around it and can't seem to find it, must have a blind spot there :)

10:10 am

well... add the guy who ran the local hangout on "happy days"

10:10 am

not the asian one, the one with the big nose

10:11 am

told you i had a blind spot, thanks hurshy

10:11 am

yes, abe, I see that... fingers are flying..(-:

10:11 am

thanks hurshy!

10:11 am

anyone have the other 9 besides the re8

10:11 am

re9 i mean, obviously.

10:12 am

good morning all. does anyone have the en words?

10:12 am

i have one - infinite

10:12 am

morning magzel

10:13 am

do you have en8/50, hurshy

10:13 am

aha, no i do not

10:13 am

it's what illustrations at the finish of a book would be called

10:14 am

or as clued earlier, final and what you eat off

10:14 am

lovely, now i have all the 8, 9 and 10 letter words

10:15 am

el 6/21?

10:15 am

pl of el5/12, a kind of antelope

10:16 am

thanks again!

10:16 am

"time is of the essence" -spock

10:17 am

or, as this grid spells it: essants

10:17 am

yay!! Found ta9 and 10

10:17 am

lol vi

10:17 am

what i meant was... i think i shall use the list to finish soon.

10:18 am

sad as it may be, i shall have to get used to listing it for a while, when i can babble at all

10:18 am

Yeah. The first spurt gets a lot of words ... but there are still a lot left.

10:18 am

thanks. i got the first en

10:18 am

i need 21

10:19 am

i should find a couple more first though, get under 20

10:19 am

Oh, well, that'll be done in no time with the list. I may as well just say Goodbye already!

10:19 am

ar5/10 clue? got bottom one

10:19 am

Do you have the funny little water bird from the bottom o? I love that word!

10:19 am

that is helpful CJ!

10:20 am

it's like that ha6 that pabrek asked about before.

10:20 am

yes vicuna, have the O's.

10:20 am

Now I need the re 9, and 10.

10:20 am

howdy, hurshy; I confess to working offline before I joined the chat... someone else insisted on "hogging" the computer this morning.. hah (usually that is me myself).. so I have ONE word to go now... maybe I can help if you get stuck..

10:20 am

ar5/10 got the backside one then

10:21 am

if you add 2 and 2, the re9 answer is 4

10:21 am

an4/4 plural

10:21 am

*ar4/4

10:21 am

well aloyisius, if you are a brilliant guesser you can tell me what i need...otherwise, once i get the list, i probably won't get terribly stuck...it's a catch-22

10:22 am

huh?

10:22 am

I can't believe res4/5 is not a word. People do it to their hardwood floors all the time. Or perhaps I should say, I wouldn't believe it of any OTHER dictionary. )sigh(

10:22 am

Fireworks I see, happy I be!

10:23 am

yay Aloy!

10:23 am

yeah, vicuna, the re's are so random.

10:23 am

Congrats, Aloyisius!

10:23 am

got ar4/4 plural

10:23 am

congrats aloy

10:23 am

i have 166 to go before i can go to work

10:23 am

10:23 am

10:23 am

ty jean, nice to meet you..

10:24 am

not really, just waiting for him, I see some dark clouds above maybe thats him?

10:24 am

aloyisius - how about some U's, i have 2 related to employing and 3 related to pee

10:24 am

and you too aloy

10:24 am

bot ar4/4 bottom and plural of that and got Ar4/4 drawings one - what ar 5/1 am I missing?

10:24 am

yay aloyisius!

10:24 am

got not boy

10:24 am

bot

10:25 am

there are 5 pee related ones, hurshy

10:25 am

enable just LOVES pee

10:25 am

ty abe..

10:26 am

good golly you can double plural it?

10:26 am

if you have ur4, you can get to all of them.. add a consonant, and then try another one...

10:26 am

ok then what is the last U besides the pee ones and the employing ones

10:26 am

and then extend your pl, twice

10:27 am

a ul4

10:27 am

ty, got them all now

10:27 am

17 to go

10:28 am

bravo

10:28 am

yay, thanks aloy I found all of the U's I needed them too

10:28 am

is there just one HE?

10:28 am

wtg, ang... Alberto is getting more organized, but the rains will pose more of a threat than the winds

10:29 am

yes, 1 he

10:29 am

any pt?

10:29 am

nope

10:29 am

phew

10:30 am

10:30 am

yes, trx3

10:31 am

change, angela

10:31 am

okay, no real threat though :p

10:31 am

means to change

10:32 am

aloyisius, pop me a clue for your weirdest 7

10:32 am

lemme look, hurshy...

10:33 am

the ur7?

10:33 am

i have it, but it is i guess my wierdest

10:34 am

well besides that, cause we just covered the U's

10:35 am

ok, it is a tie.. I liked the su feminine honcho and I thought of the beach for pl7 but forgot the s that normally starts that word... hah.. weird clues, huh?

10:35 am

hmm, i have those

10:35 am

that means i'm being fishy

10:35 am

pl7/32 - there are two. one is a simple person who does pl, but the other changes the last vowel

hi everyone! : )

10:36 am

have those also

10:36 am

hurshy, do you have the pl for the ta5 and the first ta 6/18?

10:37 am

The rest of mine are all plain pl's.

10:37 am

i do have the pl for the ta 5 but i must need a ta 6/18

10:37 am

sorry, the ta5.12

10:37 am

yay, that is good news..

10:38 am

first two an4/4?

10:38 am

i only have one ta618...it's a pl

10:38 am

ok, don't throw a ta**** (or something close to it)

10:39 am

excellent, and that brings me to the dreaded 14, how very appropriate

10:39 am

hi temple owl

10:39 am

thanks aloy I needed taht one

10:39 am

there's another ta6/18 - a bone, I think, meta-ta

10:39 am

*that

10:39 am

whoops, watch your adjectives...(-:

10:39 am

ooh...its starting to rain

10:39 am

!!

10:39 am

ooh thanks vi

10:40 am

i can't help it aloyisius, i ALWAYS call it that

10:40 am

Maybe 8 to 10 inches angela..

10:40 am

now i'm done with T's!

10:41 am

any A7?

10:41 am

wow...

10:42 am

Cheerio, Babblers.. must go.. good luck, have fun, and hurshy.. no A7 to look for... yay.. bye.

10:42 am

by aloyisius, thanks for the help :)

10:42 am

alright, that is the signal for me to get the list with 13 left

10:42 am

Goodbye, Aloyisius.

10:42 am

bye aloyisius

10:43 am

by aloy!

10:43 am

bye aloy

10:43 am

anytime... it's fun. (waves).. stay dry, angela..bye all..(wiggles fingers)...

10:44 am

:P

10:44 am

i'm still missing a 9 and a 10, can anybody help? i have en9/66 and ta10/77

10:44 am

re9 and 10... if you add 2 and 2, the re9 answer is 4

10:45 am

re 10 I am missing that too

10:45 am

re9 too

10:45 am

hmm

10:46 am

if you combine 2 hydrogen atoms with one oxygen atom the re9 substance is water

10:46 am

start with re6/21 that means outcome, and use a little bug ending to turn it into an adj. Then pl of that for 10.

10:46 am

if a blue eyed woman and a blue eyed man mate, the re9 child will also have blue eyes

10:47 am

Unless the woman was cheating on the man with a tall dark and handsome brown-eyed Lothario...

10:47 am

bye everyone got to go to work have a good rest of the day :)

10:48 am

when i said "mate" i meant consummate, not marry :)

10:48 am

got it, thanks!

10:48 am

10:48 am

Goodbye, Jean. (And a belated hello, since I didn't know you were here in the first place!)

10:59 am

well, temple, often my problem in life is not to save time but to occupy it (agatha christie... i think)... but not today

12:51 pm

Vicuna I've tried and tried to use lushoops in conversation and just can't seem to work it in

12:51 pm

12:52 pm

Amster, amster dam dam DAM!

Oh, how'd we do, Deutsch?

12:53 pm

12:53 pm

I've heard about the coffee shops in Amsterdam <grin>

12:53 pm

would you like a couple of restaurant recommendations hurshy?

12:53 pm

Check won 3-0

12:53 pm

I think it was that odd-shaped ball that must have thown the Americans. Oh, yeah, and a Worls Series that other companies compete in. Must be very confusing for you.

12:54 pm

Me too Have you Hurshy?

12:54 pm

LOL That would be Czech

12:54 pm

for companies, read countries. Sorry.

12:54 pm

i don't think i have... but then i don't drink coffee anyway

12:54 pm

oooh, ouch.

12:54 pm

oh you're such a smartar4/4, dachef

12:54 pm

sure rolin!

12:54 pm

hurshy - when you go into a coffee shop, just ask for a piece of cake. Guarantee you'll float.

12:55 pm

well then you could order of the smoker's menu, hurshy

12:55 pm

Dachef, it's tough to be a futbol fan in the US. Especially when they played so poorly todaya.

12:55 pm

ok..hangon

12:55 pm

I don't think the drink alot of coffee in them

12:55 pm

hmm, i don't do alcohol, cigarettes, or any non-prescription drugs either.

12:55 pm

argh - spoilers! i tivoed it and am only in the 64th minutes of the game!

12:56 pm

We're bound to take the mickey here - its the only time we get a chance - its just about the only sport you guys dont win! Therefore, we're gonna take our chance!!!

12:56 pm

I only take rx drugs myself

12:56 pm

Sorry lauren!

12:56 pm

Ohhh so you take prescibed drugs?

12:56 pm

hrrmmm, i think that would fall under "non-prescription"

12:56 pm

me too faerie!!!!!!

12:56 pm

yes, i do shorty :)

12:56 pm

There are an awefull lot of drugsfree restaurants and coffee shops in Amsterdam too, rest assured :)

12:56 pm

well, it's not that much of a surprise that we didn't win!

12:56 pm

ok...a great indonesian restaurant is "tempo doeloe"... have the riechtable (sp)

12:56 pm

me too!!!!!!

12:57 pm

There are plenty of sports we don't win. And generally we claim we didn't want to play them anyway.

12:57 pm

me too!!!

12:57 pm

rolin - are you recommending for london or amsterdam or what?

12:57 pm

in Amsterdam coffee shops, the menus on the tables are not what you wnat to eat, but what you want to smoke. And the waitress comes to take your order, and delivers the drugs to your table. Worth seeing if only for the experience!!!

12:57 pm

and a lovely little jazz cafe is "the alto"

12:57 pm

Yes, Lauren. We're in a tough group.

12:57 pm

oh these are for amsterdam...are you coming to london too???..how cool...

12:57 pm

*hurshy is scared*

12:57 pm

I'm going to AmsterDAM

12:57 pm

I wanna go to AMSTERDAM

12:57 pm

huzzo, halfway

12:57 pm

Vicuna - yup, and we're waiting for the sulking to kick in!! LOL!

12:58 pm

OK Shorty lets start packing.....

12:58 pm

don't be scared, hurshy, everyone is very nice, it's not like they're drug dealers. i went and didn't drink, smoke, or whatever and had a lovely time

12:58 pm

Doesn't Amsterdam have a torture museum or something?

12:58 pm

Yeah, Dachef. Just be glad the president isn't a soccer fan, or we'd probably be bombing the Czech republic already.

12:58 pm

Yes, it does.

12:58 pm

lol vicuna!

12:59 pm

hey hurshy.... drop me a line to diractor@hotmail.com and we can talk places to eat...

12:59 pm

I'll go withyou faerie

12:59 pm

gotta go..bbl maybe.*foop*

12:59 pm

hurshy - it IS a very beautiful city. Just be careful when you go out at night - never alone!

12:59 pm

hold on Im packing right now

12:59 pm

is there a cartoon museum too - i remember samantha brown going to one somewhere in northern europe

12:59 pm

Vicuna - Im glad you said that. Hope USA dont play Iran in the next round, that could be interesting.

12:59 pm

Vicuna, LOL!!!

12:59 pm

dachef - heck, i don't go out alone at night here at home

1:00 pm

later friends, I'm off to sulk and nurse my wounds.

1:00 pm

good luck, deutsch

1:00 pm

Later Deutsch :)

1:00 pm

Be strong, Deutsch. Being a soccer fan in the US is easier than mylot. I'm a field hockey fan!

1:00 pm

Deutsch - just remember - its a stupid game and you didnt want to play anyway.

1:02 pm

Nah, Dachef, it won't matter if we do play Iran because our president probably isn't even aware that there's a world cup going on.

1:02 pm

that was a very easy sudoku puzzle

1:03 pm

Vicuna - he probably thinks a world cup is a giant cup in space that the world keeps his Ginger Beer in.

1:03 pm

I agree, itsonme. I have seen easy ones that were harder.

1:03 pm

lol, dachef

1:04 pm

And it isn't, Dachef?

1:04 pm

whyd they rank it hard? You dont even have to guess

1:04 pm

lol, i just saw a leave it to beaver episode where he fell into a giant cup!

1:04 pm

you shouldn't have to guess even if it were correctly ranked as a hard.

1:05 pm

brb...im hungry...no i am not, I just want ice cream

1:05 pm

All sudokus can be solved without guessing, though not all by me.

1:05 pm

i scream you scream...

1:05 pm

Actually, Mr Bush + his minion Mr Blair have been after the World cup for years, but they spelt it wrong. They thought it was the world coup.

1:05 pm

really? I do some in magazines whaere you have to guess

1:05 pm

we all scream for ice cream!!!

1:05 pm

we all scream for ice cream!!

1:05 pm

Good one, Dachef. Sad, but good.

1:05 pm

you don't HAVE to guess if you learn about 3D medusas but i STILL can't figure those out.

1:06 pm

lol.

1:06 pm

I trump you, itsonme, with one extra exclamation point!

1:06 pm

I scream you scream give me myscream

1:07 pm

mice cream, sprite? Yuck!

1:07 pm

lol, vicuna

1:07 pm

Hmz... cripsy tailpoints!

1:08 pm

3d madusas?

1:09 pm

funny joke on that subject: Mr Blair and Mr Bush are in the White House planning World War3. In walks Cherie Blair and says "what are you doing?", to which Mr Bush replies "we're going to nuke the middle east, kill about 40 milion arabs and then kill the postman." Cherie says, "so why the postman?" At this Mr Bush pats Mr Blair on the back and says, "told you no-one would care about the arabs".

1:10 pm

Argh, sad but true.

1:10 pm

Well, it's either laugh or cry.

1:10 pm

lol

1:11 pm

that would probably be funnier if it wasnt startlingly close to the truth.

1:12 pm

It is funny, but also scary indeed.

1:14 pm

vicuna, you are a good artist :o

1:14 pm

2:13 pm

Afternoon all! Itsonme, have you been impersonating an adult? If so, you fit right in here.

2:13 pm

its- I have to keep reminding myself (and my children) these things as well. Better to offend someone unintentionally than to be unsafe (from the mama part of my life...)

2:14 pm

No, she hasn't Judi! Stidmama was just living up to the mama part of her name!

2:14 pm

lol. I will stop.

2:15 pm

da 4/5 - there are 3. one is a man's name, second is stuff in stats, and third is when you go on your first --- with your boyfriend.

2:15 pm

i was just asking if she was close to tampa to relate to the rain thats all. I stopped when i pulled her profile

2:16 pm

Praes, don't worry, you were fine. I don't think stidmama meant to reprimand you, but just to remind itsonme not to be indiscreet.

2:16 pm

I saw that Praes. Thanks. It was just one of those "teachable moments"... is it very nasty because of that "depression: coming in?

2:17 pm

okay, vicuna

2:17 pm

I have been following the weather a little bit more this year because my father-in-law is down in Miss for a little while.

2:17 pm

Otay, and really I say tampa so ppl can know my region, i live close to it, but not actually

2:18 pm

*very smart, Praes* I do the same with our location, actually!

2:19 pm

Yvo, it is his actual name, he was king of Lydia

2:20 pm

Yvo, think of that big ugly spider and try to monkey type around it, or just google the definition :)

2:20 pm

YVO -- think of some thing that feels irresistable, yet just not within reach. It's ta****izing.... drop that last bit and add a different form of "we" for the 8...

2:20 pm

Okay, Yvo, do you have the ta5/12 and 7/32 combo right before it? If so, just add a beigish color in front of those.

2:21 pm

(The what you call it when you sun-bathe)

2:21 pm

2:22 pm

jrh -- you are going to be too busy for those things (except the no job bit)! tsk tsk!

3:17 pm

shh, I want to find that out the hard way

3:17 pm

jrh - I'm too old to have any affinity for any of those ideas. But I think you may safely expect tough profs, late nights, and nightmares of torts aplenty.

3:17 pm

charm: cherry torts?

3:18 pm

raspberry...

3:18 pm

strawberry!

3:19 pm

3:54 pm

and the last round thing you serve sandwiches on !!!

3:55 pm

3:55 pm

Thanks! That was driving me nuts!

3:55 pm

3:56 pm

firefly, do you have the ta8?

3:57 pm

3:57 pm

I think it is su.

3:57 pm

firefly: Did you see the clue where they referenced the person in greek mythology that couldn't quite reach what he wanted?

3:57 pm

yeah, but i'm rusty on the Greek mythology

hi jrh402s! Hi franmag! hi Smith! and everyone!

3:59 pm

firefly, ta8 is light brown color + sticky black stuff minus the R + you and me, the 10 is it's plural

3:59 pm

how about "not khaki, but ta*" + "a five letter word for a bone in the ankle"

3:59 pm

firefly: Start with what you get if you lay out in the sun. Add what you are if you are not short, but take away one of the double letters. Then add another word for "we". Then make it plural for the 10.

4:00 pm

oops, missed a letter, it's light brown color + opp of short minus one L + you and me, then plural for the 10

4:00 pm

ha, we're so helpful :)

4:43 pm

shutter, last night we opened the Babble Store (ribbon cutting was about 30 minutes before the flip) to market those things every Babbler needs

4:44 pm

shutterbug, it's in concept stage right now, just working on our product list...;-)

4:44 pm

Ok, thanks

4:44 pm

such as... the Babble Catheter, Fish Repellant, hmmm, what else did we offer Fran?

4:44 pm

4:45 pm

i can't remember now nrk, we'll have to check the log

4:45 pm

when I get home tonight, I'll grab them out of the log and post them up on Babblers Anon

4:45 pm

lol, i've got one!!! This just in to the babble store...a handy fish slapper! Attaches right to your computer moniter, and will slap you in the forehead for those obvious words you've missed, saving you the hassle!

4:46 pm

feather -- now you're in the spirit! (though I think I'd buy the fish repellant before I bought the fish slapper)

4:46 pm

oh no feather !!!.....I would be too afraid to even start the grid !!

4:46 pm

I'm new here, haven't entered a chat before, but have to say that a "babble catheter" is probably the funniest thing i've read in a long time

4:46 pm

karys? what did i do?

4:46 pm

lol, true, prevention is the key...

4:47 pm

you should have read the description RB!

4:47 pm

oh, and i'll take 2

4:47 pm

Good one feather!

4:47 pm

not you Fran....me !!!

4:47 pm

the babble catheter was what started it all!

4:48 pm

oh, i see, in the Greeting Generator...got it Karys, it will be added to the phrases

4:48 pm

Will we offer a Babble credit card? Each fish earns you points. As will accidentally posting words in the chat.

4:48 pm

I hesitate to ask, but explain this babble catheter to me...

ur6/21, 7 combo clue please?

4:48 pm

ur + not uncomfortable but at ****. 7 is pl.

4:49 pm

4:49 pm

New from the Babble Shop: Chat-Slow (chat going by too fast for you? wish you could put it all in slow motion, so you could grab those clues before they disappeared? try new ChatSlow!)

4:50 pm

New from the Babble Shop: Flip-Advantage (tired of being the 2nd or 3rd person to say "flip" each day? wish there were a way to reserve your spot at the top of the list? now you can!)

4:50 pm

ty franmag and charm!

4:50 pm

Here's an Item for the Babble Shop- ChatErase for when you say a word or something stupid....I could REALLY use that!

4:51 pm

New from the Babble Shop: FISH DETERRANT (embarrassed by asking for clues for words you should have seen? friends starting to wonder why you always smell like an old lobster tank? try new Fish Deterrant -- you'll be on top of your game in recognizing all the obvioius words, and never again have to bathe in lemon juice to remove the fish stench...)

4:51 pm

lol, these are great!

4:51 pm

brb, gotta go make a thomas train layout...

4:51 pm

that was as far as we got before we had to close the shop last night -- like I said, I'll post them up on BA later so people can add contributions

4:52 pm

nrkii.....could you make the 'ChatErase' available for use off line too ?

Hi all! I'd love to have "type-stick" so I don't accidentally enter a word into the chat log :/ - can Babble Store carry that?

4:52 pm

new for the babble shop: Clue-advantage--- For when you want to give a clue, nobody else can come and give the same one before you do.

4:54 pm

why they make perfect sense given the nature of babble!

4:54 pm

but it all started because one of our illustrious members had to take a nature break with only 2 words left !

4:54 pm

shutter LOL!

4:54 pm

hi chic! great chair

chixie!

4:55 pm

4:55 pm

Thanx, Fran! Hey de ho, Temple!

4:55 pm

Hey, chic!

4:56 pm

oh I could use that one too shutter !!

4:56 pm

4:56 pm

hi chic :)

4:56 pm

5:24 pm

Thanks cat, they are sweeties and we truly did rescue them, they have every conceivable parasite imaginable and the vet said would only have lived a couple days without car - we adopted the only 2 in the litter, so we saved them both!

5:24 pm

got it, ty fran

5:24 pm

yw nrk!

5:25 pm

Any have clues for the en words?

5:25 pm

Fireworks! I just finished entering them all and only had to fix up one misspelling.

5:25 pm

sorry shutterbug, working backwards in the list today.

5:25 pm

YAY Merk!

5:25 pm

yay merk.

5:25 pm

congrats merk!

5:25 pm

aww Kristin, how wonderful they found YOU! It's kitten season, and unfortunately most won't make it, but the rare few that are saved, is a blessing!

5:26 pm

yay merk!!!

5:26 pm

yay, merk!!!!!!

5:26 pm

I've just got 1 en: en 7/32 just doesn't stop

5:26 pm

I always work forward, so I guess I cant help you with anything either.

5:26 pm

EN words ... 7 it goes on and on and on and on

5:26 pm

YAY MERK!!!!!!!!!!!!

5:27 pm

nice clue for that

5:27 pm

en8 first a word that means if you are the final person in the line, you are at the en* + a word for where your food is when you eat dinner

5:27 pm

another en starts the same, and then add something you eat off of. Plural, too.

5:27 pm

EN9 is its plural

5:27 pm

I have hit my virtual wall with 48 left....no list, so I should probably go check it out :)

5:27 pm

FranMag and Annie, thanks for the hints! :) still looking and I know I'll get it (and probably hit myself with a fish once I do)

5:27 pm

s'okay shutterbug! how has the grid been for you today?

5:28 pm

brb, son wants chocolate milk

5:28 pm

thanks merk.

5:28 pm

Stid, not too bad so far. My mom got a whole bunch in the middle of the night, so I havent been working for too long.

5:28 pm

Nef, you know when something you really want is in reach but you just cant reach it, it is ta********

5:28 pm

U R welcome

5:28 pm

I only have 187mwords so far though

5:29 pm

*way to go mom!* LOL

5:29 pm

I thought the grid was so easy today. I love building on words and when you have that 'sh' with the 'es' to add to so many endings, you get a bunch of words in a hurry. Some nice vowel teams, too.

5:29 pm

thats not bad shutterbug! this is a rather large (and somewhat confusing at times) grid

5:30 pm

stid, I'm so caught up in the grid (8 to go) I didn't see you -- HELLO!

5:30 pm

actually, this is my moms usaername I just play with her and usaually get the majority of them. My mom says "I get the easy ones, you get the hard ones"

5:30 pm

go nrkii go!

5:31 pm

YAY Merk! uhm sorry, just noticed I never hit enter, back to the grindstone

5:31 pm

ok, now i am upset. Surely having no a*** at a picnic would make it a******

5:32 pm

I might make my goal. I want to hit a 1,000 in the rankings in the 1st and 3rd column by the end of the week. Then I'm going to stop looking at the rankings.

5:32 pm

lol uncagain!! with all the strange re and non words that enable has you would think that would be a word!

5:33 pm

good goal Merk! :-)

5:33 pm

(I'm with Unc, btw)

5:34 pm

7:07 pm

peri, en9/66 is plural of en8/50, last of the buffet perhaps

7:07 pm

na*** having to do with birth. Like a neona*** ward in a hospital. The last one is like a plural of a boy's nickname.

7:07 pm

7:09 pm

7:11 pm

Is there just one e7?

7:11 pm

dodge, got the pl8/45 not the pl8/50

7:11 pm

lib, it also has a medical meaning that i didn't look up yet

7:11 pm

en9 finish and what you eat your dinner on

smithchick, only 1

7:12 pm

Its my pl4 and su4

7:12 pm

thanks Fran and dodge, got the en8 and 9

7:12 pm

peri, my icon is a wood sculpture, i think it's either a pretzel or a gordian knot

7:12 pm

I'm missing one...Is there more than one e6?

7:12 pm

yw peri!

7:12 pm

ur6,21?

7:12 pm

only one e6 smith

7:13 pm

It kind of looks like a curled up snake too, Fran.

7:13 pm

Fran, am I the only one that thinks your icon looks somewhat "obscene" at least in the small version

7:13 pm

bambam, ur+ea4/4

7:13 pm

ok, NOW i'm going for the list, 204 words done, minimal clues

7:13 pm

lol nope

7:13 pm

peri, it got warped a little, it does look a little obscene! ;-)

7:13 pm

lol, well peri, i didn't until you mentioned it, and now that's all i see!

7:13 pm

good job feather!

7:14 pm

Bambam - the second ur5/12 plus vowel

7:16 pm

7:16 pm

7:20 pm

Fran, I have a question for you regarding our marketing plan for the Babble Store

Hello everyone!!

7:20 pm

wb nrk

7:20 pm

I'm still missing two 7's. Either e,p,s, or t's. Or some combination thereof.

7:20 pm

hey nrk! what is it?

7:20 pm

Hey nrkii!

7:20 pm

i have 39 to go, stepped away soon after i saw the PL list...

7:20 pm

hi mrp!

7:20 pm

aww, 103 here

Hi Stid, Bye Stid, have to go out and water now that I have finished.

7:21 pm

Of these three sections on Babblers Anonymous, which one is the most appropriate for me to place the Babble Store listings:

7:21 pm

ooops, didn't mean too, sorry

7:21 pm

General Stats and Babble Game Stuff Meet and Greet Say hi and tell us about yourself... Other Interests Food, music, pets, jokes, etc.

7:21 pm

I mean ESP, the site is http://espgame.org/ and the otehr game that is fun, is peekaboom... peekaboom.org

7:21 pm

any help for the la7/28?

7:21 pm

I'm trying to be listless but I don't want to drive everybody insane by constantly begging for clues!

7:21 pm

bye everyone!

7:21 pm

I know I need 15 more, so have to try to figure out where the ones I already have belong!

7:21 pm

Bye, rumple!

7:21 pm

lol, my 200th word was the ne** word

7:21 pm

SMith, I made it to 20 left and then had to use the list for the same reason

7:21 pm

ahh, i'll check it out ang

7:21 pm

Hi, mrpresident!

7:21 pm

I vote for "Other interests" nrkii

7:22 pm

hey mrp! how's the day going? did you have a nice holiday yesterday?

7:22 pm

cat2 - something to light a path

Hi smithchick and Fran et al!

7:22 pm

there is a marketing strategy? this is serious

7:22 pm

I've got 18 to go, nrkii...I'm about to break out the list.

7:22 pm

probably 'other interests' , but really should be under 'general' (if they were real)

7:22 pm

Okay, I'll put it under Other Interests, as it qualifies as "joke"

7:22 pm

thanks! -- be back soon!

Holiday was very nice thanks! And the grid is good!

7:22 pm

la7 camping light or chinese la*****

7:22 pm

if the Ss weren't so long, i'd say don't bother smith!

7:23 pm

thx leep

7:23 pm

...not sure how i feel about the new list...checkboxes away from the clues is throwing me! i'll get used to it i'm sure...

7:23 pm

thx dodge

7:23 pm

first I'm gonna monkey around and try to find my 8 missing 4's.

7:23 pm

you're welcome cat2

featherbee, put it in an email... lickety needs feedback on any changes

7:24 pm

yes mrp, this grid was fun for me

7:24 pm

okie dokie! i'm a person who never types the words in, just checks off as i go, so i don't use those word boxes anyway

7:25 pm

cute cat, mr. p

7:25 pm

fabulous new look, mrpresident! :)

7:26 pm

I have the na5/10s for the nose and for the birth related things, missing one more

7:26 pm

yes, it moves along nicely with enough challenging words interspersed without too many too bog down... with some light, fruity overtones, and I suspect (though I am not there yet) a lovely lingering flowery essence.

7:26 pm

uncagain, it looks like a plural for a man's name, short name of mr. hawthorne

7:26 pm

uncagain - plural of a male nickname

7:26 pm

okay, got called away for a bit...I will start but after dinner...baby seems to be doing fine. Thanks to all for the greetings. Hopefully see you in a bit!

7:26 pm

lol, so poetic, stid

7:26 pm

very fluffy kitty, indeed!

7:27 pm

so, today's grid is like a nice reisling stid?

7:27 pm

thanx, one of these days I am going to recognize that one instead of begging for it

7:27 pm

hmmm... riesling. be right back

She is my darling Lia - I miss her RIP

7:28 pm

yes, or perhaps a gewurtztraminer, but I won't know until I am done.

7:28 pm

uncagain, i play every day so i saw that right away!! :-)

7:28 pm

still stuck on ha7,32?

7:28 pm

{{{MrP}}}

7:28 pm

beautiful cat mrp!

7:28 pm

ooh, gewurtztraminer, mmmmmm

7:28 pm

aww.. RIP, Lia..gorgeous kitty!

7:29 pm

bambam, ha+st*** of grace

7:29 pm

nrk, wouldn't that be a good word for a grid!!

7:29 pm

no talking about German whites! You'll distract me! lol

7:29 pm

lol gira!

7:30 pm

i obviously drank too much last night watching the aussies snuff japan 3-1... not with you fran

7:30 pm

i'm afraid we've already driven leslieann to drink, she disappeared right after i said riesling

7:30 pm

Bambam, thanks for reminding me (needed a break from the PLs anyway...) brb

that game was incredible!! They embarassed Japan in the last 8 minutes

7:31 pm

ha+one of the united st***s

7:31 pm

that was for you bambam!

7:31 pm

the first japan goal was bollox anyway... schwarzer was shoved out of the way.... but it was a great finish i was going berserk

7:31 pm

oooh I see Australia got their match! well done!

7:32 pm

mmmm. Riesling. mmmm. Particularly if it's German 02-03.

7:32 pm

and the US didn't do so well... not completely unexpected.

7:32 pm

0-1 in the 83rd minute and we won 3-1 was incredible ... scored in 84' 87' 92' all by subs, the coach looking like the messiah this morning

7:32 pm

man, i wish i had some white zinfadel....

7:32 pm

back with my wine. great idea, fran :)

7:33 pm

yeah the US are rubbish but it's a minor sport for them at the professional level (despite being the highest participation sport in schools)... all the freak athletes in the US play baseball, basketball, football, or hockey.... like in Oz mostly rugby n cricket (and aussie rules for the southern states)

7:34 pm

and despite everyone saying the Aussie team are all foreigners, the entire team (except Archie Thomson born in NZ) are born in Australia, just 1st or 2nd generation european immigrants (like my wife, and there's nothing wrong with that!)

7:34 pm

anyway bring on Brazil!

7:35 pm

al 5/10?

7:35 pm

and I STILL don't get you Fran (man am i braindead)

Brazil are going to slaughter us

7:35 pm

that's something the US and Australia have in common, built by immigrants!!

7:35 pm

Bambam, it hasn't been the highest participatory sport in the schools here until recently -less than 5 years; that is IF it is now classified as such

7:35 pm

US , Australia, Canada... all the same.... that's why we get along so well

7:35 pm

feather, to change as in identity or appearance

7:35 pm

It's amazing how much faster this goes with a list!

7:36 pm

al5/10-- to change, adjust?

7:36 pm

oooh, i was just inching close to it as you said that! had it all but the last letter. thanks!

7:36 pm

bambam, ha + st5/10 that is one of the united st***s

7:37 pm

Okay, I am down to needing 5 PL and then 24 more... the second PL 7/32?

7:37 pm

en7?

7:38 pm

stid, a kind of wart that grows on your palm or sole, rhymes with the growing vessel

7:38 pm

leslie, it goes on and on and on

7:38 pm

oh -- I have that one Fran, must need the other... which is?

7:38 pm

start from the bottom left corner

7:39 pm

you're going to kick yourself if i tell you stid, being a gardener and all

7:39 pm

Leslie, without en*!

7:39 pm

ha, i knew it had to be the first three letters, didn't feel like typing in ever other 4-letter word i had :)

7:39 pm

sounds like the wart or the brand of peanuts

7:40 pm

thanks for saving me from myself LeslieAnn, no fishes needed here!

7:40 pm

ou5,12?

7:41 pm

re7,32?

7:41 pm

bambam, a small bird last 5 letters of carnival ride, car*****

7:41 pm

need to start dinner. back soon.

7:41 pm

re7/32, plural of re6/21, test re****

7:41 pm

later stid!!

7:41 pm

thanks fran

When australia won last night, I was delirious... so anything I may or may not have said on the chat log is purely a product of too much wine and national pride.

7:42 pm

yw bambam!

7:43 pm

i'd love to take the thanks, stid, but fran gave you your last clue :)

7:43 pm

yeah mates in Australia are saying the America's Cup in 1983 was better, but A) I was 14 and B) that is millionaires racing boats... this is the WORLD game GO YOU AUSSIES

7:44 pm

Sunday Australia beat England 34-3 in rugby and for the first time in my life I didn't really care -- the WORLD CUP IS ON! (this is the one with other countries in it as opposed to the World Series)

America's Cup phht!! I get sea sick! Give me WORLD CUP soccer any time!

34-3 !! That is a beating!

7:45 pm

after this World Cup, we will refer to soccer as "football", and Footy as either "Aussie Rules", "League", or "Rugby" as we should

7:45 pm

Fireworks!

7:46 pm

yay smithchick!

7:46 pm

hooooray smith!

7:46 pm

Hey, Une! How are ya?

7:46 pm

when i was growing up soccer was for wogs and pansies... now I think we might finally accept it which can only be good, ... beating NZ and England in League is lame after a while

7:47 pm

hi everyone-mrp, it's nice having our two cat's photos here at the same time

7:47 pm

ru7,36?

7:47 pm

what's a wog?

Hi Eva!!

derogatory term Leslie - for europeans

7:48 pm

a wog (in aussie terms) is a southern european immigrant (like my wife) ... greek, italian, croatian, all wogs.... but it has evolved from a very derogatory term to a term of endearment over the years....

7:48 pm

even the wogs call themselves wogs these days

7:48 pm

ru7/36-people who hurry

7:48 pm

oh ok... don't know a lot of so. europeans or aussies, so prob'ly why i don't know :)

7:48 pm

with the double vowel ending

7:49 pm

in the UK its short for western oriental gentleman, which is a subcontinental (indian, paki etc) ... but in Oz it means Greeks and Italians

7:50 pm

very famous for the fluffy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror of their suped-up Toranas

7:50 pm

ur7? (worth bearing in mind i don't have the 6 :)

A term of endearment! LOL! I bet if you called your wife a wog to her face, she would kick you in the balls!

7:51 pm

yay smithchick!!! sorry got distracted by kids

7:51 pm

haha, i like mr. p's style

7:51 pm

leslieann, ur+ea4/4 + plural letter

I'm pleased to announce that the Babble Store is now officially open, at : http://p105.ezboard.com/fbabblersanony mousfrm10.showMessage?topicID=26.topic

8:08 pm

wee, 69 left

8:08 pm

wb nrk

8:08 pm

great stid! hi nrk, is th store open?

8:08 pm

the store is open, and I expect product to be flying off the shelves very soon!

8:09 pm

i was just thinking we should have a food court

8:09 pm

FranMag, you are funny

8:09 pm

I think computer-side food delivery might be an item to add to the store... hmmmmm.....

8:10 pm

or for the moms out there -- the Babble Slave might be an option (cooks and cleans for you while you Babble on)

8:10 pm

I have 24 to go... Food court sounds good, but only health food! chocolate, mocha, vino, chocolate, lattes, cookies, and chocolate (and maybe some pizza?)

8:10 pm

well, check out the listings, and see if you want to add any... http://p105.ezboard.com/fbabblersanony mousfrm10.showMessage?topicID=26.topic

8:10 pm

Hey, I could use a Babble Slave and I am not a mom!

8:10 pm

gooooooooooooooooooo stid!

8:10 pm

peri, me too actually

8:10 pm

8:13 pm

hmm, any ideas for products for eyes crossing from looking for those last few words?

8:13 pm

Hi, marigold

8:14 pm

babble blinklet...something that automatically reminds you to blink every few minutes, so your eyelids don't fuse into the wide eyed "i can't find that word" stare we all know so well!

8:14 pm

How about BabbleMassage for people whose back, neck and shoulder hurt from being at the computer for long periods of time

8:15 pm

oooo good one peri

8:15 pm

feather, the fish slapper got funnier and funnier the more I thought about it

8:15 pm

thank you very much (said like Elvis)

8:15 pm

New from the Babble Store: The Babble Slave (is your life getting in the way of babbling? do the silly things like cooking, cleaning, paying bills, even going to work, constantly interrupt your Babble efforts? why put up with it when you could have a Babble Slave? the Babble Slave is a fully computerized and fully functioning robot that can be made to look JUST LIKE YOU -- your own spouse won't know the difference! and because we use robots instead of humans, you don't need to feel bad about owning a Babble Slave. Keep your life running and your Babble strong -- get a Babble Slave. You'll be glad you did!)

8:16 pm

rofl!!!!

I want one!!!

8:17 pm

nrk, that's a stepford wife!! the store is incredible! very fun. i'm gonna have to think of some others

8:18 pm

Peri, please add the massager to the Babble Store -- I'd love for other people to post there and help me stock the shelves!

8:18 pm

someone tweak my babble blinker?

8:19 pm

feather, you can submit it to R&D (aka nrk) for further development!

8:20 pm

lol, there we go!

8:20 pm

Samy, how many do you have so far?

8:46 pm

manicmama, 308

8:46 pm

308

8:46 pm

Might have been 80's instead of 70's and yes Dire Straits!

8:46 pm

I never reallly liked that song.

8:47 pm

I couldn't think of Dire Straits under pressure :)

8:47 pm

8:47 pm

8:47 pm

someone sing me something else please

8:47 pm

oooh Sting *faint*

8:47 pm

8:48 pm

a Clue Muse, jee?

8:48 pm

8:54 pm

Fran, I added Clue Muse, and included your testimonial, ty!

8:54 pm

jeewhiz, you're on!

8:54 pm

and do you have a Babble dictionary for all of our babblehead words?

8:55 pm

8:55 pm

jeewhiz there is something like that

8:55 pm

LOL *that look* is only one of many reasons i'm glad to be single-forever ;)

8:56 pm

my housemate can't possibly fault me, as he has been playing world of warcraft for the past 9 hours straight LOL

my husband loves WoW...

I don't get it

8:57 pm

When I get that look, I tell him my screen is smaller; his is glued to TV sports

oooh... sports is almost worse... football season... random shouts startle me!

8:57 pm

8:58 pm

soon to add another laptop

8:58 pm

i would probably get 'that look' less if we had two computers, he likes to surf too.

8:59 pm

Nrk - I really need that Clue Muse Translater==brain doesn't want, cant think

9:05 pm

9:05 pm

stid - 7/32 = ha + the united *****s

9:10 pm

anagram of the opposite of love, actually, muse

9:10 pm

yw kristinc - do you want the 10's?

9:13 pm

hooray, thanks firefly! *whispers and the ta?!?

9:13 pm

9:16 pm

9:16 pm

lol and I liked that movie, but don't think of it as "alien"

9:17 pm

yw jeffer, plural is the 7/28

9:17 pm

9:17 pm

9:17 pm

9:17 pm

options for songs, movies, etc.

9:17 pm

9:18 pm

9:18 pm

feather, re+ view with eyes

9:18 pm

hi libarebel!

9:18 pm

9:21 pm

9:22 pm

I only knew the ri

9:22 pm

feather, the babbler blinklet is on the shelves!

9:23 pm

9:23 pm

Now I'm going to add Babble Bath!

9:23 pm

lol, very good! i need some of that now...;.

9:23 pm

9:24 pm

I'm gathering Fran

9:24 pm

bambam, gos really fast

9:24 pm

ra 6/21? i have the one my son gets in his diaper area that is a plural

9:24 pm

hmm...still stuck on the ta10...my google skills must stink!

9:24 pm

bambam, ru 6/24 is ru 4/6 + double vowel or what fran said

9:24 pm

ta 10 is plural of ta8

9:24 pm

bambam it's the person who does the hurrying

9:25 pm

feather, ra + really certain

9:25 pm

kristinc - did you see the clue about the word that means tempt, also a ta (but not in the grid) that comes from the ta10 word?

9:25 pm

tks people

9:25 pm

feather, it's like something that's been rubbed off a black board, but take off the first E

9:25 pm

yeah...I've seen those...I'm trying, I really am! :( I'll go work on it again

9:26 pm

the 1st tempter--ta****ize comes from him...

9:26 pm

ilandrah compound word, also plural it : finish and round dish

9:26 pm

kristin, ta 10 = brown from sun + not short - L + not they but we, not them but ** + two letter plural

9:26 pm

9:26 pm

oh, except for maybe satan... :O|

9:27 pm

9:27 pm

Clue Vantage Fran

9:27 pm

bueno! thanks nrkii!

9:27 pm

ta7,32? ta 7,28?

9:27 pm

ok, kristinc: t+picnic pest+weird ** + abbreviation for United States

9:27 pm

dang, too slow! baby's upset, gotta run

9:28 pm

ok, my last 48 words are shaking in their boots!

9:28 pm

ta7/32 is a plural for the 5/12 before it, use 2 letters to make plural

9:28 pm

ak! I just go to look at lickety's list and it's all changed around...I don't use it often but it's rocking my world!

9:28 pm

thanks for the help firefly!

9:28 pm

abbreviation for United States would have been much easier than not they but we not them but **!!!

9:28 pm

ta7/28 is plural of the eastern practice ta 6/18

9:29 pm

yeah, I'm not happy with the new lickety list, because I usually make the list very thin on the side, and now I can't fit both very well ... though small price to pay because the list is of course a godsend

9:30 pm

Hello every1! I haven't been involved in the log at all tonight. Just ba-ba-babbling along. Who or where do I turn when in need? 2 left...en 8 and 9. Help, please.

10:21 pm

I think I'm just going to go get the dictionary and bablle all the SH words

10:21 pm

such a looong grid...

10:22 pm

tillie, for first time, shoot to get at least 100 to maybe as many as 200 words????

10:22 pm

that is just based on this particular grid though tillie -- another time I might say getting 40 or 50 would be pretty good

10:22 pm

first time??? shoot for 50!

10:22 pm

im a longggggggg way off!!!!!

10:23 pm

I don't know how you all finish.... I've only got 88 words and I'm about to shoot myself

10:23 pm

Tillie, you'll start getting them in bunches I bet

10:23 pm

how about the pl 8/45 (last 8)...I'm also missing the 5 and 6 before it (in case they're related)?

10:23 pm

you'll get the hang of it esquain!

10:23 pm

i spell so badely

10:23 pm

kristin, the two pl 8's have the first same five letters

10:24 pm

good evening everyone ...

10:24 pm

it would be my pl8 to help you!

10:24 pm

esquian and tillie, one piece of advice: notice we have 4 s's in today's grid -- look for the plurals of words you've already gotten

10:24 pm

esquian, it took me at least a month before i ever finished - i had to use the lickety clues

10:24 pm

hi anders!

10:24 pm

hi anders

10:24 pm

hech I've only got 54 words but i have 570 points

10:24 pm

hey, anders

10:24 pm

bade spelling is creative :D

10:24 pm

I got the 8/45...saw it in the log but thought I had entered it in...clearly not! how abou the 6 and 5 right before?

10:25 pm

hi anders!

10:25 pm

i got 55 and 609

10:25 pm

how did you toggle back and forth quickly between lickety and the board?

10:25 pm

got a late start today and there are too many words!

10:25 pm

thanks for the 8/45 btw :)

10:25 pm

anders, many of them will come really quickly -- it's a great grid today

10:25 pm

how do you know how many words there are?

10:25 pm

pretty good tillie

10:25 pm

kristin, p + opp of follow

10:25 pm

i could use the very last st 6/18

10:26 pm

yeah...not bad anders...I started about 7 or so and am down to 70 to go

10:26 pm

thanks nrkii!

10:26 pm

thanks, nrkii.... Yes, I'm a big plural person... :) That probably makes me sound like an idiot, but oh well..

10:26 pm

i like the grid, it's fast and the words pop up at me

10:26 pm

like pressure, anders, but change the vowel

10:26 pm

that helped nrkii

10:26 pm

esquian, I always miss the plurals!

10:26 pm

any clues for the ur 6 & 7?

10:27 pm

et 4/4 not volcano?

10:27 pm

ur + military command "At ****" (relax, stand down)

10:27 pm

then plural

10:27 pm

for me, it's just automatic if there's an s. I think I waste a lot of time that way, though.

10:27 pm

the first 200 words popped for me but then they stopped

10:27 pm

thanks nrkii

10:27 pm

ne hints for the 2 10's guys?

10:27 pm

ET + "** good ** it gets"

10:30 pm

Good Evening Everybody! How is everybody tonight?

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

11:30 pm

11:30 pm

the su 7 is another word for raisin, still used in some british cookbooks, I think.

11:30 pm

11:30 pm

then make it plural for the 8/45

11:30 pm

11:35 pm

11:36 pm

se 4's: an animal, to burn, the seven ****, a chair, mispelled animal, someone who uses their eyes, what eyes do, se + "repeat" prefix, se + "thank you" shortened, a complete se* (plural)
