Hello, Miss ABS... I had to change into my frozen confection and I must say, I'm looking incredibly yummy!

1:56 am

great snith

1:58 am

could i please have some clues for the eight letters

1:58 am

or the four letters

1:58 am

There are no 8's.

1:59 am

there isn't an 8 today

1:59 am

or the fours!

1:59 am

there may not be an 8 letter word, but the ve 7 has me stumped..I didn't get the hunting clue

1:59 am

I didn't get it either, pinecone...

2:00 am

Perhaps I'm in*** at this game!

2:01 am

veni***

2:02 am

ve + en6/21

2:02 am

any four letters

2:04 am

can you give a clue as to the EN 6/21?

2:04 am

Well...I don't have the en6 either.

2:04 am

a clue was given en + the top floor of a house

2:04 am

en + room near roof

2:05 am

thanks mymuseisme..I finally got that pesky ve 7

2:05 am

TY, wouldn't have gotten either of those without clues!

2:05 am

What does the other 7 start with?

2:06 am

Hello all, my student just left for the evening. Poor thing was here till nearly 5PM.

2:08 am

Good Night, Miss ABS!

Morning - how's today's puzzle?

2:08 am

bye miss abs

2:08 am

mymuse, do you have a clue on the other 7 letter word?

2:08 am

morning matty

2:08 am

Hi matty...It isn't too bad. I've been on just under an hour and I've got 17 to go with no list.

2:09 am

all I know is it begins with sa/ don't have it myself yet

Oooh - no very long words. Result!

2:09 am

thanks, I'll let you know if I get it

2:10 am

I think sn***pit should be a word.

2:10 am

I didn't see that, but I agree with you

2:11 am

not listed as a compound word

2:11 am

Enable errs again!

What in the world could the K's be (and for that matter the Us)

2:17 am

try a lot of 4 letter combos for the ks...including double vowels

2:17 am

I've got a ut4/5 and a uv4/8...ka4/8 x2, ke4/9 and kh4/9...

2:19 am

plural that uv4/8

2:20 am

Well duh! Pass the fish!!

2:20 am

lol easy to miss with all those vowels

2:21 am

hello

Cheers for that - I now have all the Us and 4 of the Ks (I have ka4/8 x 2, ke4/9 and kh4/9. And stupid words they are, too).

2:21 am

I should probably get off of here and go to bed. I'm seeing my son off in the morning. He's going to Florida to spend a couple of weeks with my sister. Her hubby is picking him up on his way through tomorrow.

2:21 am

Hi, egm.

2:22 am

I'm with you on that, matty!

2:22 am

hi egm

2:22 am

another ke, just change last letter of the one you have

Oh, I am sooo stupid. Of all the K words I'd yet found, that's the only real word. And I needed it clued. *sigh*. One K left.

2:24 am

well time for me to hit the sack...nite all and have a happy tomorrow!

2:24 am

the other is a french cap matty

2:24 am

Bye, muse!

2:24 am

bye smith!

Really? Well well well - learn something new every day. The other ke is a French cap, or the missing K?

2:25 am

thanks mymuse, have a good night

2:27 am

Did anyone ever clue the sa7?

2:27 am

i'm still working on it, and i don't know if anyone else has it

2:28 am

sa7 - it's a kind of grass. But it is easier to get if you think sa+ meow +opp of off.

2:29 am

2:40 am

TC*

2:47 am

stuck on meow too...

2:51 am

okay, so i'm stuck on the KA 4/8 - i've got the one that is a different spelling of "Sugar C***", it's the other I'm having problems with...any clues?

2:53 am

Double your vowel and then pluralise it, JMann.

2:53 am

actually, I'm stuck on all of the K's except that one below and the KE 4/9 which is the opposite of "lost"

2:54 am

Change that consonant to a vowel on the ke4/9 (the last one)...Think of the little sporty cars for the other ke4/8 (just substitute the e for the i)

2:55 am

Then there is kh...Star Trek.Wrath of Kh**

2:55 am

Could I get a clue for the c6? It's my last word.

2:57 am

im done. good morning all

2:57 am

Morning oggy!

2:58 am

Good morning - I'm just starting.

2:58 am

I'm done too!

2:58 am

So there's hope? Congratulations both!

2:58 am

Hey Haz! I've got to go to bed, it's 3am here.Bye all!

2:59 am

thanks smithchick for all your help

ummm... hi everyone

2:59 am

have a good nite

2:59 am

night smith

2:59 am

Sleep well, SMithchick.

3:00 am

Hi Haz! It's one of those small and ugly ones, I'm afraid

3:00 am

Yes, I think that may well be an apt description.

3:00 am

JMann - did you get that ke4/8? I can't figure it out.

3:02 am

Dianne, sounds like car k***

I have no clue what I am doing.. just letting you all know

3:03 am

dianne - its like the small green vegitables that come in pods, just change the first letter

3:03 am

To get a clue, click on Angelsong's resource page, under Friends of Bablle, at the bottom of the web page, and you will find lots of information there.

3:04 am

JMann - I knew that word but just didn't look where I should have - thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

3:05 am

no problem, as you've done it for me as well

3:14 am

Any clues for the O, I'm just not seeing it, thanks :)

3:14 am

Do you know second letter/point values?

3:15 am

OU 4/6

3:15 am

No I don't Haz, sorry

3:15 am

o = candy called Milk **** but drop the first letter.

3:15 am

thanks JM

3:15 am

and Dianne :)

3:15 am

the o is like the things in baseball with a diff consonant

3:16 am

Thanks - got it.

3:16 am

thanks, got it :)

3:23 am

hey

3:23 am

3:28 am

A day off is always a good thing :)

3:36 am

Hello.. Im back!!

3:37 am

The y's are killing me, and clues please. Hi Preethi

3:37 am

Hello Preethi, this grid is making us concentrate thismorning.

3:39 am

I've just found one y word - ya4/8 - rhymes with another word for peculiar or strange.

3:39 am

And it can be pluralised.

3:40 am

then take that and plural it

3:40 am

Thanks Haz, I swear I tried that combo, thank you :)

3:41 am

Do you have the ladies name with the same ending?

3:41 am

yes, just got it, the 2 m's, thanks :)

3:44 am

hello all, i'm here briefly, but i must say these ridiculous words are considerably off-putting!

3:45 am

Good morning jillibus. It's the sort of grid where you feel you're picking the words out with tweezers! There are some nice words, though.

3:45 am

Hi Jilli, I agree :) 30 left and I am pulling my hair out

3:48 am

With the K in the middle, I keep trying to include it in all the words I keep monkey typing

3:49 am

Hello everyone!!

3:49 am

Good evening Jemma!

3:50 am

Hi Jemma

3:50 am

hello jemma

3:50 am

Haz!!!!You got it right!!!And hello again Cat and Jilli!!

3:51 am

I remembered just in time!

3:51 am

I keep wantin The Kraken Wakes

3:52 am

Yeah, How many words today, my 14 day trail has just ran out!!what does that mean???

3:52 am

kant

3:52 am

109 beastly ones, jemma

3:52 am

oops ...good morning all

3:52 am

109 words total. It means that you won't get the stats panel to show you how many words are coming off each letter.

3:53 am

109 Jemma, means you no longer get the stat panels

3:53 am

Good morning Kallia.

3:53 am

Good morning Kallia.

3:53 am

Hi Kalia

3:53 am

Sorry - didn't mean to post twice, post twice.

3:53 am

this looks as if it may be a struggle today

3:53 am

Is that bad cat?

3:53 am

Beastly is an excellent word for this grid.

3:53 am

Kallia, hi. I think there are some words a scots lassie could know -- otherwise...

3:54 am

It is a hard one!!

3:55 am

Well, that was a nasty one! These are the grids I really dislike - short and full of ridiculous words no one's ever heard of. Will stick around for a while if anyone needs clues

3:55 am

It is very challenging Jemma

3:55 am

be back soon!

3:55 am

It's a test of vocabulary and endurance. My vocabulary has about run out at 62 words.

3:56 am

I'm feeling stupid....I can't find the KAs. :-(

3:56 am

congrats amanda for finsishing, any hair left? :)

3:57 am

the snark - put one more a into what you have written about the KAs.

3:57 am

Don't feel stupid snark. one has a double vowel with snake letter at the end. the other, think the movie, Citizen ****

3:58 am

Thanx Haz and Cat - I'm glad someone's kept their brain. :-)

3:59 am

Am I showing my age on the movie clue. Its a classic, so not sure how many younger one's will kn ow it

3:59 am

you're welcome snark :)

3:59 am

Maddie26 are you there?

3:59 am

hey everyone! how many words today?

4:00 am

As you say, Cat, it IS a classic, so they should get it.

4:00 am

109 - and you'll regret each one.

4:00 am

Maddie, has your 14 day trial run out??mine has!!)-:

4:00 am

(and I say that with love). :-)

4:00 am

yes jemma

4:01 am

lol snark, you got that one right :)

4:01 am

Wouldn't even have attempted the thing without the list - I'd like to keep my hair a bit longer!

4:01 am

I'm slowly losing mine amanda, no list yet.

4:01 am

it's really bad. now we can't see the stats!!

4:01 am

29 left

4:02 am

Exactly Jemma, that is why when my free trial ran out, I paid to go pro.

4:03 am

hi again everyone

4:03 am

but cat, is it worth it???because i am younger do you think i should??

4:03 am

hi saph!!

4:03 am

Hi saphyre

4:03 am

Hello Saph

4:03 am

ok I have 13 to go, this one was tough

4:03 am

I think it is well worth the money. It's a good investment Jemma, it is helping you to learn new words.

4:04 am

Jemma - see how you get on without the stats first. Don't forget to look for the shorter words. This grid is difficult, so you will not be able to get sequences going.

4:04 am

yeah i guess!!i'll think about it!!

4:05 am

haz, i am really struggling!!

4:05 am

How many words have you got?

4:05 am

8!!!!!

4:06 am

If I give you some clues to find four letter words with k in them, will that help?

4:06 am

YES!

4:07 am

I have 36 words, some of which are recognisable, so I'm going to bed and won't have much time tomorrow to try for more via the A2Z and the good clue-givers who have assembled a list of the rubbish words for future use

4:08 am

kean

4:08 am

Sleep well Jili, rubbish words, I agree

4:08 am

Okay - there is a title for a noble gentleman, there is a fish (ha4), there is something that is baked, you say it after 'for goodness ****', there is a word meaning to manufacture or create, and a word meaning to grab.

4:08 am

switch those letters around Jili for ka4/8 :)

4:08 am

Kean doesn't work althoughI keep hoping!

4:09 am

I had that cat, thanx!

4:09 am

The other ke jili, would you like a clue?

4:10 am

oops, mean, one of the others

4:10 am

ive got most of them, but i don't understand the first 2!

4:10 am

I have 2 ka, 2ke and kh...what am I missing please

4:11 am

there is another ke Kallia

4:11 am

Jemma - some words with v in them. A word meaning jealousy (en4/9), a word meaning either a country's collection of ships or a shade of blue, to possess, and then put a letter on the possess word to find a retreat, or oasis of calm.

4:11 am

oK, yes please, I have one ke, the first one. And then I AM going to be!

4:11 am

ke4/9

4:12 am

cat is that 3 ke4/9?

4:12 am

The noble gentlemans title is du4/10, the fish is ha4/9, Jemma. Both words end in the same vowel, so you should be able to work them out ...

4:12 am

ke plus a piece of **e, change the last letter to a consonant for the other ke4/9

4:13 am

hey guys, it's hurshy at the zurich airport!

4:13 am

hey hurshy

4:13 am

is this a quick 109 or a slow 109?

4:13 am

4:13 am

oops, ke4/8, sorry

4:13 am

4:15 am

4:15 am

Buh-Bye!!Goodnight Haz!!LOL

4:17 am

4:18 am

Bye Jemma - I'm off as well.

4:18 am

bye Jemma and Haz

4:18 am

sudoku on the other hand i would have time to finish - not that it matters since we can play archives anytime.

4:18 am

so use the layover time to write down the words.

4:18 am

OK, talk to you again some other time!!BYE(-:

4:18 am

thanks, Haz!

4:19 am

Bye Cat!!Gr8 talking to you again!!

4:19 am

Hi hurshy...thought you were off for 2 weeks :)

4:19 am

lol dianne, that would take so long - i type so much faster than i write...and i'll see the same words later as i would now.

4:19 am

BYE EVERYONE!!!(-: LOL

4:20 am

kallia - 5! but i TOLD y'all i would be on anyway, nobody believed me i guess...

4:20 am

4:20 am

4:20 am

4:21 am

sacatip

4:22 am

sacajawea

4:22 am

thanks.

4:22 am

lol Hurshy

4:22 am

lol

4:22 am

is that some exotic place hurshy?

4:22 am

no kallia it is a famous native american woman

4:22 am

ah ok :)

4:23 am

i guess only famous to americans :)

4:23 am

LOL

4:24 am

whew i am tired. i only slept like 4 hours the night before we left and then i slept a few fitful hours on the plane, and it's 5:23 AM my time...

4:24 am

but our theory is if we just don't get sleep before and then go to bed at... oh say 9 local time... then we will be quickly acclimated.

4:25 am

I thought you were joking...but I had to look it up!

4:25 am

thats the best way to acclimatise hurshy

4:25 am

joking... about sacajawea? no she's real... i could have spelled it wrong i guess...

4:25 am

no you spelt it right :)

4:26 am

i was a spelling bee champ in my youth

No, you got it right, Hurshy.

4:26 am

course they don't ask you proper names...

4:26 am

well yay for me then

4:26 am

I was many things in my youth, but you don't need to know :)

4:27 am

does anyone else think that "send in the clowns" is a very unexpected song? i mean the title sounds like it should be happy and upbeat and it's all sad and stuff.

4:27 am

have to go back later for last 42...hurshy have a great trip

4:27 am

thanks kallia :)

4:27 am

love that song......

Yeah, Hurshy. It's very downbeat. Can't judge a book by it's cover or a song by it's title, I guess!

4:28 am

The song is about two people out of sync - sadly comical. If you know the musical its from, you'll know why.

What musical is it from, Snark?

4:29 am

well i just think it should go "seeeend iiiiin the CLOOWWWWNS, send in the happy silly clowns..." or something

4:29 am

A Little Night Music by Stephen Sondheim. It's a great show. It's based on a film by Ingmar Bergman - but it isn't depressing at all. Romantic comedy.

4:30 am

so they have all these newspapers in the lounge here in like a lot of asian languages and stuff and there's a khaleej times and i don't even know where khaleej is!

Thanks, Snark. I never knew that. Hurshy, it's like the book by William Saroyan called The Human Comedy. A guy asked me once if it was funny & I said no. He thought it should have a different title then. But I think the title is appropriate.

4:31 am

well the human comedy sounds like it could be ironic... i can see that...

4:32 am

ughh 6 to go

4:32 am

qrj, i don't think i've seen you in awhile, how've you been?

4:32 am

ooh go saphyre!

4:32 am

what are you doing up saphyre?

Fine, Hurshy. Just haven't been on much. My sister's life fell apart, so I've been helping her. You have a great trip!!!

4:33 am

working hursh - night audit- which takes about an hour and nothing much to do for the other 7

4:33 am

ohhh, poor sister. give her good wishes from me.

4:33 am

Thanks, Hurshy. 27 year marriage down the terlet.

5:10 am

How about Top Cat

5:10 am

Work of genius, was Top Cat.

5:10 am

I agree :)

5:11 am

Oh yes, loved him too. Loved alot of the cartoon cats, still have a fondness for most of them

5:12 am

I'm on my way out but couldn't resist giving Top Cat my vote! I'll be back later to tease some more words out of this grid. Bye all!

5:14 am

anyone else need clues before I go?

5:14 am

I'm good saph, thank you :)

5:14 am

Yes I remember them - the ice cream truck sold them - not good humor, the other one...can't remember the name

5:15 am

Ahh, thats why, I never got ice creams from the truck. My Mom insisted on making her own ice pops lol

5:15 am

hi mickie

5:15 am

I don't think they were sold in stores in NY

5:17 am

My mom did too Cat but if Dad was home we got spoiled once in a while.

5:17 am

Dads are good like that :)

5:18 am

Anyway I've got to go, be back in an hour when I get home from work if anyone needs clues

5:18 am

Take care Saph, and thanks for the clues :)

5:18 am

5:20 am

Any clues to the UVs?

5:20 am

wow I never thought that remembering the french word for a french policeman's cap from schooldays would come in useful!

5:20 am

lol

5:22 am

uv4/8, uv plus 2 vowels

5:22 am

plural that for the uv5/18

5:23 am

Thanks Cat!

I've lost it. Any clue for the Ca6?

5:33 am

here's a kitty for you then: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/29 144867/

5:34 am

whoops found it.

5:34 am

thanks Ata, will go look see :) I don't have that one yet snark, sorry

5:35 am

that was my kitty about 10 months ago!

5:35 am

Ca6 - ca + first part of long key board thing.

5:36 am

looks like it's a plural word.

5:36 am

I did find it - it's a warrant for arrest.

5:36 am

What a wonderful photo Ata!

5:37 am

there's lots of pics of her there - she's such a photogenic little thing - http://silver-claws.deviantart.com/gal lery/

5:38 am

thank you for the link!

5:39 am

thats ca, is actually the only C I am missing, and sorry, I am just not getting the clues. It's me, not the clues.

5:39 am

I like showing off my little cat!

5:40 am

ca + first part of ivory keyboard instrument + plural letter.

5:41 am

awww, great pic's!! Beautiful cat, it's obvious he/she is loved :)

5:42 am

I don't know if you saw my clue Cat - it means an warrant for arrest. You can google it if you have trouble with the spelling.

5:43 am

she's a she :) just over a year old, horrendously independent until she suddenly decides she *needs* to cuddle all night long! and she's a tiny little thing - her mom is a really small purebred Burmese ...

5:44 am

thank you, got it!!!

5:45 am

Any help with the Ma6s?

5:45 am

That finished my C's, 24 left :)

5:45 am

when she curls up, she's only about 8" long and she curls right into any little crook she can find - normally right in behind my legs - its so cute!

5:46 am

Cat - glad you got all those :)

5:46 am

awww Ata, Don't ya just love kittys that cuddle at night. The one that loved to cuddle with me like that, passed a couple months ago. She was my bed buddy, I miss her.

animals on the bed!! I have 5 of them at one time!! not cute!

5:47 am

I have a cuddly cat and a cuddly dog :) Hobbit cuddles up usually actually in my arms or along my back, and Silverclaw finds whatever space she wants :)

5:47 am

She had to be right at my chest, curled up, and if I switched sides, she would come 'round to whatever side my face was.

5:48 am

LOL mrp, they hog the bed, but awwww :)

5:48 am

I love falling asleep to contented purring

5:49 am

I do too Ata :)

awwww, my butt!! I have a king size bed and maybe get 5 inches to myself! If I put on any weight, I am done for!!

5:49 am

My doggie doesn't sleep with me, would need a super King for that, she is huge, and a bed hog :)

5:49 am

Can I tell you a true story? My husband (a vet) was called to do a house vist quite late at night. When he arrived, he was taken up the stairs, to find the dog in the bed, and the female owner, in her nightgown, in bed as well. He was rather embarrassed, as you can imagine!

5:50 am

LOL mrp! Don't you know by now, you don't own Cats? They OWN you :)

5:50 am

lol sounds familiar! the little kitten from hell who is the size of a bunny rabbit not a real cat managed to take up about 80% of the duvet last night!

5:50 am

Sure Haz :)

5:50 am

Haz - what's the rest of this story?

but not MY 5 inches of the bed!! the slasher claws and evil looks are just not enough to move me!!!

5:51 am

The rest of the story is that he examined the dog and got out of there as quickly as possible!

5:51 am

LOL Haz!!!!

oh Haz... you could have extended that like crab in a fish market!

5:51 am

Are you saying the woman called the vet and then wehnt and got back in bed with the dog to await his arrival?

5:52 am

Slasher claws and evil looks, why.......thats me!!! :)

the fact she was in bed with her dog is enough!!

5:52 am

this sounds like part of a stic com....

5:52 am

was it a male dog???

5:53 am

No, not quite that, in that her partner opened the door. I think they just had no idea that it wasn't very appropriate.

5:53 am

*sit com*

was it a guy dressed in a dog suit??

5:54 am

Are you referring to the guy who opened the door?

5:55 am

One of the other funny stories which we know to be true, relates to a local farmer who kept goats. He had the flu, took to his bed, but one particular goat wouldn't allow anyone but him to milk her. So, the farmer's aunts brought the goat into the bedroom, lifted the goat onto the bed, and the poor farmer had to milk her from there.

5:55 am

Yikes!!!!

that is just wrong on all accounts!!

5:56 am

I agree!

5:56 am

These people were a little eccentric at the best of times!

5:57 am

I can't stop laughing at the mental picture I have of the auntie/the goat/the farmer/the bucket....

5:57 am

Eccentric is being kind :)

antie, goat, farmer and bucket?? I am going with jerry springer here

5:58 am

Poor goat :( Was he an ugly farmer?

5:58 am

He would win no prizes in a beauty contest, let's put it that way.

5:59 am

Haz - at least your husband wasn't called for a night visit to that house !

5:59 am

Another K-grid??? Good afternoon all

5:59 am

I know Dianne!

6:00 am

You people are so funny, I can hardly work for laughing!

Sprite!! long time no see!!

6:00 am

Hi Sprite!

6:00 am

Hello sprite - there are k words but they're not too cruel.

6:01 am

Hi sprite - have seen you for a bit. All o.k?

6:01 am

I know, the ugly farmer joke was tastless, but hey :)

6:01 am

*tasteless

6:01 am

Reasonable well. How are you all doing?

6:01 am

There are only six k's in the grid Sprite, there were 21 re's yesterday!

6:02 am

Good sprite, but not so good for the grid from he**

6:02 am

But not so many Re-words with the actual "again' meaning :)

6:02 am

ap5 clue?

6:02 am

love your icon Ex Wren!

6:03 am

ap5, a sleep disorder

6:03 am

ap - sleep related condition

6:03 am

plural that for ap6

6:03 am

any clues for the ve 7?

6:05 am

ve4/7 + something similar to a twitch.

6:05 am

Ve7- relates to hunting.

6:06 am

try VE + N + the room right under a roof (minus one of the double letters)

6:06 am

ve7/44, ve plus N plus the space in the upper part of your house sometimes used for storage, minus a cross letter

6:06 am

I want to plural that Ve7. Won't take though.

6:06 am

thanks everyone

6:06 am

Tried too Sprite

6:07 am

good morning all, what does the second 7 start with

6:07 am

sa and ve

6:07 am

sa7

6:07 am

okay, so I'm down to the final 2 words, and I'm stumped - they are MA 6/36 and NA 5/16 - any clues?

6:07 am

Any Pe or Ma clues please? I'm missing a few...

6:07 am

HI, Cat9x, may I have a clue for the sa7

Sprite, I have good news for you!! I am in the process of being a crash test dummy with the monster... then we can have some fun!

6:08 am

peri, sa plus my name plus not off but **

6:08 am

Owwwww great! I'd love that! Just don't have the time to do it by hand, though it is SOOOOOO tempting!

6:08 am

SA + not a dog, but a *** + the opposite of off

6:08 am

Haz - any more good stories?

6:09 am

thanks everyone, got the sa7

not by hand!! go check the clue page that lickety has up...

6:09 am

Snark - do you have the pe5 & 6/

6:10 am

I wish I could mrp, still can't access his page.

6:10 am

Sorry - was called away to the phone there. Good stories? Let me have a think.

6:10 am

snark - PE clues - PE 4/9 = the top of a mountain

6:10 am

Clue page for the monster? That's new to me!

Sprite, look at lickety's page... that will clue you for what is new

6:11 am

That's my punishment for never going to lickety's ;)

6:11 am

PE 4/5 - there are 3 of them = the same as PE 4/9, but just change the last letter

6:12 am

thks dianne

6:13 am

I have all the PEs but two think - one is the PE5/22.

6:14 am

PE 5/20 - sounds like the nut, but with a different middle letter. PE 6/33 is just the plural of this

6:15 am

Hi Jmann - I do have those. I'm missing the PE5/22 and one of the Pe4/5s.

6:15 am

pe22 is a lever used to move logs - but it sounds more live being anoyed.

6:16 am

think of a window

6:16 am

sorry thats a pa not pe my mistake

6:16 am

PE 5/22 = try taking the veggie, and the plant that grows all over the walls of Harvard and Yale (ie, *** League) and get rid of one of the vowels (either the end of the veggie or the beginning of the plant). That's the best I can explain it

6:16 am

MrP, I cannot find what you mean!

6:17 am

pe4/5 - are you messing the one that has to do with a hammer (alternate spelling)?

6:17 am

PE + the opposite of out

6:17 am

thanks JMann

6:18 am

that should be all of the PE's

6:18 am

Thanks Jmann!

6:18 am

yw Beast

6:20 am

Anyone have any clues on the MA 6/36?

6:21 am

Ap6 clue?

6:21 am

sleep disorder

6:21 am

ap6 is a sleep disorder, plural

6:22 am

Merry Pensacola! You?

7:32 am

7:32 am

Jai - you might need Ke4/9 - which is Ke + the ratio of the circumfrence of a circle to its diameter

7:32 am

Ocean Springs, MS

7:32 am

Yeah, it just shook everything a little - I guess it was south of here, so we'll see

7:33 am

JM, I am from San Jose, didn't feel a thing. Yes I know, left to go to bed :)

7:33 am

jai - that must be a pretty small place?

7:33 am

I already have the one with the pie in it.

7:34 am

they just said on the news (Channel 4) that it was 4.4 - in the range of often felt - rarely damage

7:34 am

It is next door to Biloxi, which is NOT a small place- therefore O.S. is booming and growing like wildfire....

7:34 am

Jai - do you have the Kh?

7:34 am

Watching Ch 11 now, KNTV

7:34 am

No!

7:34 am

7:36 am

kh 4/9 ghengis ka*

7:37 am

hi eva

7:37 am

I am missing a ke- I think the 4/9

7:37 am

4.7, should have felt it here if San Martin. JM, were you around for the biggie in the 80's?

7:37 am

there are 2 ke 4/9s

7:37 am

same first 3 letters

7:37 am

That would be - something you saved or Ke** up with.

7:38 am

actually was in LA the day of it, so missed it, but my family was here for it

7:38 am

were you?

7:38 am

I was here, thought it was finally the "Big One".

7:38 am

nope, got that one- so it's a 4/8, I have the one that ends with "i"

7:39 am

Couldn't even stand, it was shaking so bad

7:39 am

hopefully it was so we don't have to worry about it anymore - but I grew up here, so I've always heard about the "Big One" so I'm not sure it's real

7:39 am

ke & virst vowel & snake

7:39 am

Ok...might be the one that sounds like something you start your car with.

7:39 am

ughh first

7:40 am

my brother was here and he said that the water in the pool was like a tidal wave coming out

7:40 am

First thing I heard after the 80's one, when I turned on the news, this was NOT the Big One :)

7:40 am

Same here, Heard about the "big one" all my life

7:41 am

HUZZAH!!! Now, only 3 left....I am missing one of the seven words, and it must be a c,m or h

7:41 am

and then he ran to look at this large mirror on the wall - thank goodness it didn't fall off the wall because it's heavy!

7:41 am

TA 5/12? I really need help here

7:41 am

7:42 am

ta+ a metropolis minus the last letter

7:42 am

I am right at the border of SJ and Campbell, felt nothing

7:42 am

The seven-letter words are SA and VE

7:42 am

I am misssing a c. s and h- sorry

7:43 am

7:43 am

It is the sa

7:43 am

Ok everyone, i'm gonna go now! HAPPY BABBLING TO ALL!!!

7:43 am

TTFN

7:43 am

The news is talking about the "side to side" motions people felt, nothing here.

7:43 am

sa - bag & first vowel & 2000 lb

7:44 am

Redwood City, nice town

7:44 am

SA7/32 - is Sa+ a kitten's mom + the opposite of off.

7:44 am

7:45 am

I hope you guys are okay!

7:45 am

7:45 am

My daughter lives in LA - should I be worried?

7:45 am

HUZZAH! TWO LEFT!!! one 4 "c" and one 4 "h"

7:46 am

not at all - LA is so far away from us, and this one was really small

7:46 am

Which ones Jai?

7:46 am

strawberry shortca*

7:46 am

a walking ca*

7:46 am

tuna come in ca*

7:46 am

no saph, it's ok. LA won't feel what we feel, plus, every small quake takes pressure off, so it's actually a good thing

7:46 am

good morning everyone! was there an earthquake in calif? havent heard the news yet.

7:46 am

Superman wore a ca*

7:46 am

spanish hose

7:47 am

7:47 am

spanish hose?

7:47 am

Do you have ca6/24?

7:47 am

yes

7:47 am

ok good I would hate to have to call her at 6 am pacific time

7:47 am

house sorry

7:47 am

so, the earthquake (which was minor) happened about 20 minutes ago, and we've already had about 3 or 4 aftershocks - didn't feel any of those, just the first one

7:48 am

any clues for that ca6/24 snark?

7:48 am

Ca6/24 - means relating to hunting. you can google that one.

7:48 am

I am sure she is fine:) I have a brother in West Hollywood, and he is online, he felt nothing

7:48 am

c

7:48 am

saphyre - yeah, if you called her, she'd probably just yell at you because she's too far away

7:48 am

ok thanks :)

7:48 am

I felt nothing,no aftershocks, nada

7:48 am

Do you have what Superman wears? And lecherous lads?

7:49 am

I know JMann - she'd call me a worry wart

7:49 am

I've got them all, still misssing a c and an h

7:49 am

Saph, once a Mom, always a Mom, I don't blame you worrying, but all is ok :)

7:50 am

aha! lecherous lads?

7:50 am

what is that one?

7:50 am

4,6 4,9 4,5 4,5 4,6 6,24 4,5 for the c's

7:50 am

That would be c4/6

7:50 am

well, it's better to have a bunch of smaller ones than the Big One!

7:50 am

snark-didn't find anything when I google-any other clues?

7:50 am

We are South Bay anyway, wayyyyyy far from southern LA

7:50 am

I have 3 daughters - California, New York, And S Carolina

7:51 am

I worry in many different directions

7:51 am

exactly JM

7:51 am

The ca6/24 - Ca+3.14+first vowel, plural-sounding.

7:51 am

I know Saph, I am a worry wart too, when it comes to my Son

7:52 am

thanks snark!

7:52 am

News must be slow, they are talking to EVERYONE who DID NOT feel the quake

7:53 am

lol cat

7:53 am

HUZZAH! ONE LEFT!!!! IT's an H- I have 4 4's and a 5, but I know it's a 4- have these: the one that sounds like cane with an "h"; the one that rhymes with rake; the one that looks like "hunt"; and the one "To ha++ and to hold- what am I missing?

7:53 am

and now the news is making a bigger deal about it than necessary - asking people if they notice anything moved in their houses, etc. - i don't even think my pencil moved much!

7:53 am

yw.

7:53 am

but i guess there's nothing else going on today

7:53 am

LOL JM, they always do

7:54 am

Sounds lke ha4/6 - goes with couture or cuisine, minus a vowel on the end.

7:54 am

change the third const of the ha* & hold

7:54 am

alright, I'm off to bed now - safe in knowing that the majority of the Bay Area never even felt a thing!

7:54 am

You didn't feel it? So tell me, did anything move? Did you fall? No, I felt nothing? So, did you lose anthing valuable?

7:54 am

oops nevermind

7:55 am

8:25 am

No, not yet.

8:26 am

3.14 is from math- remeber, the Greek letter that is the ratio of the radius to the circumference?

8:26 am

I'm thinking about the 3.14?

8:26 am

Thanks, angelsong -- we are very blessed!

8:26 am

8:26 am

8:29 am

Are you all enjoying this tricky grid?

8:29 am

ch, the purple heart was a beautiful tribute.

8:29 am

3.14 in math has to to with circles......

8:29 am

8:30 am

Babble is really educational!

8:30 am

Right- and sounds just like apple +++ and MOM

Yes, but after the way you clued, I should have had it sooner!

8:33 am

yeah got it

8:33 am

sure jaianniah....how about the top right corner u? :)

8:33 am

Angelsong, my daughter did that with an online photo share called 'snapfish' - so far 3 of us have posted photos and there is a total of about 300. And we still haven't posted the ones from the 15 cameras on the tables, or the relatives' digital ones! It's an amazing site.

8:34 am

Uv+ two vowels+ snake letter

8:34 am

then plural it

8:34 am

Yes, please. K. I have ka4/8, ke4/8, ke4/9, k34/9 and kh4/9. One missing?

8:34 am

thanks jaianniah...are those related to harmful sun rays?

8:35 am

Hi all Bit of a sticky grid today.

8:36 am

You are missing a ka, I think- try ka with a double vowel in the middle (which vowel should be obvious)

8:36 am

JA, another ka4/8

8:36 am

abe, they are related to the eye -- the middle part with the iris

8:36 am

LOL Abe

8:36 am

Hello FMitch - going to start now or are you just tempting yourself for later?

8:37 am

Hey Haz, Have been babbling quietly for the last hour whilst the printer chugs away.

8:37 am

This grid isn't sticky, it's done with Super Glue and Obscurity!

8:37 am

i'm going to have an entirely new vocabulary at the end of this grid

8:38 am

And what do you think of the show so far?

8:38 am

It was a great start got to 80 and now ground to a halt.

8:39 am

Thanks jai, I needed that ka word too . Got to go out now though, only 16 to go.

8:39 am

What I am trying to figure out is what to do with all these new words I'm learning- : "Gosh, my uv++ is hurting today!"?

8:39 am

So waiting for inspiration to strike!

8:39 am

yw

8:40 am

LOL yes Haz, hence the pause for a quick chat. How are you getting on with the grid and is yr arm stiff yet?

8:41 am

jainniah maybe we should try to make a sentence using as many of the obscure words as possible --- and each word has to be used correctly! (Gosh it's nice to know I'm with a group of people who might actually find that suggestion as fun as I do!)

8:41 am

This puzzle definitely requires monkey skills!

8:41 am

LOL ch1212 - great idea

8:41 am

ch1212, I was thinkin' the same thing! LOL!!

8:42 am

Oh, boy, I am hard pressed with the one I just made up! LOL

8:42 am

Birds of a feather :D

8:42 am

that is a great idea

8:43 am

hello. easier than yesterday?

8:43 am

For example- the bride and groom say "To ha++ and to hold"

8:43 am

and I am not referring to the easy word!

8:44 am

" I sold my sa***** for 1000 ta***"

8:44 am

Sorry Fmitch - taking a phone call there. There's a degree of excitement next door as a group of honey bees have swarmed into a bush. It's quite a sight!

8:45 am

Hi ahp Didn't play jesterday but it is not that easy today but fun none the less

8:45 am

"My uveas were hurting so much I couldn't spot the pacas on our capias trip, so I relied on the maven in our group to point them out." That's only 4 though ...

8:45 am

From high on his ma6, the Great Kh4 gestured with his pe5 and exclaimed, "Issue a ca6 for those ca4!"

8:45 am

to pay for a procedure to remove my na*** "

8:45 am

*harp!!

8:45 am

My maternal grandmaother, the en===== one, loves the du++ LOL

8:45 am

Wow Haz, that must be quite a sight.

8:45 am

Oh Vicuna, yours is much better!!

8:45 am

Oh, Vicuna, that's great!

8:45 am

but you're using the actual words! :-)

8:46 am

I have only half the words so far, so I'm working with a handicap!

8:46 am

It has reminded me of the bees swarming in 'Fried Green Tomatoes'

8:46 am

OH MY GOSH!!!!! I JUST REALIZED WHAT I DID!!! I AM SOOOOOO SORRY~

8:47 am

:-D

8:47 am

Well, that's the worst ever. Okay, I'm a bobblehead. Sorry. Sorry.

8:47 am

The ve7 kh4 jumped up into his ma6 and shouted "Follow the swathes of sa7! Therein lie the elephants!"

8:47 am

ch, don't cry, I do it all the time- I am FAMOUS in Babbleland for inputting words in the wrong box

8:47 am

atalante, LOL!!

8:48 am

ch1212 - don't worry - you've just saved me some time!!

8:48 am

Vic - for the record, I just walked in, but I assumed the pe5 was "penis"

8:48 am

VERY GOOD, Atalante!

8:48 am

jeez, ch1212, you could have at least used words I didn't already have! :)

8:48 am

(ooo, I don't have ve7... So... what kind of a kh4 would do that?)

8:48 am

thanks, jai, but this time I actually checked on the spelling as I was typing, to make sure I had them right --- grrroaan. Thanks for all of your understand.

8:48 am

understanding.

8:48 am

Morning everyone, BTW!

8:48 am

ch1212, you DID use words I didn't have so THANKS!

8:49 am

I agree with Jen - try and use some words I haven't got next time! ;)

8:49 am

Hiya, Jen

8:49 am

jrh, there's nothing I can do about your assumptions! :) (And I'll give you a hint: there's a different pe5!)

8:49 am

Vic - I may be a troubled man

8:49 am

Good morning to everyone ...good luck

8:50 am

I dunno. Sounds like YOU are untroubled. Just the people around you may have trouble!

8:50 am

excellent point. after all, i am moderately hellacious

8:51 am

It's the PUZZLE that is goofy- ordinarily, pe5,10 would be what he said!

8:51 am

(Oh, what a fabulous description of a kh4, Atalante!)

8:51 am

9:05 am

No nee for trout today. There's ha4/9 right in the grid.

9:07 am

Well, that was fun in a masochistic kind of way! The other ca4/6 are ungentlemanly gentlemen

9:07 am

Well, I'm off. Have a great day. I feel a small nap coming on....<Yawn>

9:07 am

ca4/6 are the sort of men who would be challenged to a duel for insulting someone's sister.

9:07 am

tsk right in front of me the ca4/6 thanks

9:07 am

The sort of men who would associate with rotters, bounders and the like.

And I must be off. Have a good day everyone!

9:14 am

9:15 am

en + space under your roof for storage

9:16 am

hmmm... not up on my elephant driving vocab.

9:17 am

ma6 - the game ma* jong + opp. of in.

9:18 am

Aha! that does it! Thx Vicuna and Charm... that makes 3 days in a row I've managed to finish the grid! Of course, tomorrow will probably be a 400 worder and I'll never make it.

So, Charm, does that mean you're done? In which case, congrats, fish or no fish!

9:31 am

okay- so I can neither count nor spell. Shoot me.

9:32 am

GraceM clued ka 4/8 earlier and also en6, but didn't get them. Can somebody help please?

9:32 am

But still, there's always the pocket bread for legless reptiles, and that would be 9!

9:33 am

ka4/8 - Pa** easter egg kits - change the 1st letter.

9:33 am

"Citizen Ka4/8" Orson Wells en6/21 - en + indefinite article + facial twitch

9:33 am

by the way, Vicuna - done! These short grids kill me.

9:33 am

Which ma's - they are all weird and outrageous!

6:24 pm

yay erda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:25 pm

Wow, thanks, got it!

6:26 pm

ma 5/18's

6:27 pm

manicmama, start with m + where St Peter guards the gate - he

6:27 pm

both start with the same three letters...and one rhymes with "raven"

6:27 pm

then change the last vowel

6:28 pm

then change the last consonant of that word to a vowel

6:28 pm

jaia!!! i was hoping you would come back. i've been stuck on that pa5/12 since you left!

6:28 pm

i'm just not getting the vowel connection

6:29 pm

Okay. Pa+ TWO MORE vowels+ "en"

6:30 pm

PA + end of string b*** (vegetable)

6:30 pm

If it ended with a P, you could flip it around and it would be the same

6:31 pm

thanks nrkii, that was a great clue for her....

6:32 pm

your not talking about me are you?! ;)

6:32 pm

yep!

6:32 pm

6:33 pm

6:33 pm

manicmama, there is another ma 5/18

6:33 pm

ma 5/16 is a girls name, plural

6:33 pm

do i type like a girl? is that were you were getting confused?

6:34 pm

;)

6:34 pm

the other ma 5/18 is ma + a room with a ***w

6:34 pm

no big deal.

6:34 pm

yes, it is an older name.

6:34 pm

dax was a female character on Star Trek, i think that's what confused me....

6:34 pm

as long as you give me good clues you can call me whatever you want!

6:34 pm

how about Handsome! LOL

6:35 pm

6:36 pm

Hi, feather! Watch out for this grid, it takes longer than it looks....

6:36 pm

yeah, so i gathered...small but challenging

6:36 pm

as soon as i get my internet working at my house i will get a picture up.

6:36 pm

go, mama!

6:36 pm

higher percent of weird words today I think

6:37 pm

Dax, that would be great!

6:37 pm

not of myself of course! i'm a photographer... which means i'm better behind the camera than in front of it

6:38 pm

Do you know, I think I've been on for three hours?????

6:38 pm

huh. ok, this is not a promising start...can't get any of the Ts in the top corner! don't clue yet, just griping a little here...

6:42 pm

hey, i got both Ys! wee!

6:42 pm

i have a BA in photography from UCF. I love outdoor photography

6:42 pm

The problem that I had with the pa5, is that it does not end in en, it ends in an. pa + 2 vowels + n.

6:42 pm

my wife does alot of photoshop too.

6:42 pm

WTG< feather!

6:43 pm

Jee, that's why JAI put it as "en" (for the sound, rather than the letter) but I can see why that might confuse

6:43 pm

I was spelling out the letter.....sorry, I will change that clue....nrkii does it better...

6:43 pm

i'm an idiot!!!!! i didn't even see that other "n" in the top corner.

6:44 pm

Okay, just clarifying for those who were confused like I was.

6:44 pm

i'm ignoring clues for now, so in an hour, when i ask for that pa, don't slap me!

6:44 pm

k! LOL

6:45 pm

i was twisting all the vowels i could and just couldn't gt around to that other n. i feel much relieved. thanks jaia

6:45 pm

Dax, I like to work in flowers- I do effects on them- they look great when I am done, but they look terrible shrunk in this board!

6:58 pm

PE5 sounds just like a nut

6:59 pm

Thanks for the pe words...strange words that they are....:)

6:59 pm

7:02 pm

no other pa 5/12...

ah, I see my confusion. I am in need of the pa 5/14!

I entered lickety's boxes wrong

7:03 pm

does the sc5/14 build off the sc4 before it?

typing in the dark, here, so I can enjoy the twilight

7:04 pm

Oh helpful nrkii, do you have the ta 5/12?

7:04 pm

ta + New York ***y

7:04 pm

no dax, its moonsc***

7:04 pm

Dax, no

7:04 pm

Dax, no it doesn't...it sounds like a word that usually starts with e, and means to get away...

7:05 pm

sc 5/14 is sc***goat

7:05 pm

hi everyone

7:17 pm

hi ping

7:18 pm

Okay, I just posted some thoughts in Babblers Anon that I might get yelled at for

7:19 pm

hi everyone!!

7:19 pm

oooooooo, gotta go see!

7:19 pm

Hi Peri

7:19 pm

is it about the store?

7:19 pm

Hi Ping

7:19 pm

hi nrkii

7:19 pm

no ping, I posted under the General section, a new post called "Thoughts on Cluing"

7:19 pm

I wanted to express my thinking, but didn't want to do it here in chat, so posted it there

7:20 pm

The store is still thriving though -- needs new product ideas ....

7:20 pm

missing the 2nd th4/5 and th6, clues please

7:21 pm

Hi marigold!

7:21 pm

ca6,24?

7:21 pm

th + M** West

7:21 pm

interesting thoughts! i agree with how it's interesting how differently people clue. and as a rule, i prefer the more vague clues, until i'm about to pull my hair out over one,then i don't mind it being spelled out! kind of depends on how hard up i am for the word.

7:22 pm

meant th4/6

7:22 pm

th 4/6 is an old-fashioned way of saying You

7:23 pm

nrkii, thanks, don't know how I missed that one

7:23 pm

yeah, I've been debating about even posting that feather

7:23 pm

i haven't read it yet, nrkii, but i have discovered how little i know about certain fields because some of the clues stump me so profoundly. for example, apparently i don't know the name of a single bone in the human body.

7:23 pm

Ping -- me neither!!!

7:23 pm

lol ping!

7:23 pm

3 to go.... working on my second firework show ever!

7:23 pm

I rarely clue to the actual definition -- more often break the word apart or use puns/wordplay

7:24 pm

go DAX!

7:24 pm

I prefer more concrete, spelled out clues. I usually don't ask for help unless I have tried hard to find a word. or unlesss I am really tired :)

7:24 pm

i think you did it nicely...didn't put down the ways of clueing, just show what your personal preference is

7:24 pm

nrkii, you give great clues

7:25 pm

okay, thanks feather -- we'll see how people respond in the post...

7:25 pm

so, speaking of great clues, got one for the en 6/21?

7:25 pm

7:43 pm

ma6/27 please

7:43 pm

It's 16th June here in UK and so 'Clowns' theme day. I won't be joining in with that as clowns give me the creeps. I've gone for this icon instead

7:44 pm

ty, fran-- u2!

7:44 pm

mucho gracias sueq...inspite of the fact i'm a slithering bug eating asp.......

7:44 pm

thanks lib!

7:44 pm

Bring on the questions, I'm raring to clue

7:44 pm

jac, i'm with you on the clowns, my icon will be in theme, but not a creepy clown

7:44 pm

ma6/27?

7:45 pm

Peri - ma6/27 is the chap in charge of an elephant. Indian word.

7:45 pm

peri, an elephant keeper

7:45 pm

ma + chair letter + not in but +++

7:45 pm

hi, shutter :)

7:46 pm

FranMag - It's surpising how many people don't like clowns. I get creeped out by those ventriloquists dummies, too.

7:46 pm

jac, those dummies are worse...i've seen Twilight Zone!!!

7:47 pm

Me, too, FranMag. *shudders*

7:47 pm

I am SO creeped out by clowns-- always have been...

7:47 pm

How about the clown from "it"?

7:47 pm

Good Grief!

7:47 pm

they're under your chair.......under your bed.....

7:47 pm

thanks for the clues, found the ma6/27

7:47 pm

Shurrup, Ren!

7:48 pm

ok, i love the onelook reverse dictionary! never would have gotten that ma 6/27 otherwise!

7:48 pm

y/w, Peri.

7:48 pm

teehee......

7:48 pm

sueq, that's why i don't like them. way before the movie came out i had a picture in my head and it's way worse than what they put on the screen!!

7:48 pm

I think that any kind of parody of the human form; manneqins, clowns, even dolls etc. are very frightening on a primal level...

7:48 pm

feather, it works really great when you have the first 3 letters and a def, i love it too!

7:48 pm

how about the first ma 6/36?

7:49 pm

I love onelook reverse dictionary too

7:49 pm

Oh yeah, the book was far more creepy, I am too good at scaring myself

7:49 pm

that's why Chucky was such a successful franchise

7:49 pm

Hi lib, I left for a minute then came back, so I didnt see you said hi until just now.

7:49 pm

chucky.....*shudder*

7:49 pm

well, hello, shutter!

7:50 pm

i don't mind clowns, etc, but that thing creeps me out!

7:50 pm

how about ventriloquist's dummies? eeeek!

7:50 pm

2nd ma6/36 please

7:50 pm

ma + *sounds like boot* + 1st vowel

7:51 pm

SueQ, do you have a clue for the 2nd ma6/36?

7:51 pm

brb...my whinning computer wants some attention....silly computer

7:51 pm

we had a chuckie doll that my husband got in one of those claw grab game thingies. he used to put it out on the porch at halloween. freaked me out to keep it in the house the rest of the year...i ended up moving it to the back enclosed porch, in a wall locker, inside something else so i didn't have to see it.

7:51 pm

Featherbee - for ma6/36 think Lego stories. Ma6 (also known as Matoa) is the main villan of the 'Bionicle' universe.

sa 7/32, please?

7:51 pm

burp it, ren!

7:52 pm

feather, first ma6/36 is like the brand of power tools, change the second vowel

7:52 pm

2nd ma... the *** pole + wine drop the "e"

7:52 pm

last ma6/36 is a homophone of the ma5/18 right above it

7:52 pm

thanks jac, gave me enough to google with! and thanks everyone else who chipped in

7:53 pm

sa 7/32 is a type of grass used to make hay

7:53 pm

Ina - sa7/32. A tufted perennial grass (Sporobolus wrightii) of the southwest United States, used for pasture and hay in arid regions. Sounds like a hessian bag that weighs a lot!

7:53 pm

whats a homophone

7:53 pm

peri, sounds like, but spelled different

7:53 pm

does it mean, sounds the same as

7:54 pm

like heard and herd

7:54 pm

I am missing an ma5/18, have two that are homophones but spelled slightly different what am I missing

7:55 pm

Peri - means sounds that same, but is spelt differently, e.g. bow & bough.

7:55 pm

peri, it's right in between those two words. possibly and adjective of the first word

7:56 pm

or, think of what films are called and change first vowel

7:56 pm

how many words in total today?

7:56 pm

109

7:56 pm

109

7:56 pm

109 babs

7:58 pm

babs, thats not very many.

7:58 pm

ooh jac, you've saved a step, i keep saying italian for wine minus the last letter!! very efficient!

7:58 pm

go peri!!!

7:58 pm

it seems like a lot for this one!!!

7:58 pm

ma4/7 please

7:58 pm

Peri, bring it on girl!

7:59 pm

ma4/7 - think of the old song, 'Come Into The Garden, Ma**'

7:59 pm

peri, spinoff of 'All in the Family' minus last vowel

7:59 pm

Think old tv show with Bea Arthur

7:59 pm

8 left!!!

8:00 pm

(Rhymes with 'My Sweet Lo**'.

8:00 pm

8:00 pm

8:01 pm

8:01 pm

uv5,18?

8:01 pm

ma4/6?

8:01 pm

Sounds like a Red Indian chant you two are setting up. LOL.

8:01 pm

lib, it's a plural of the uv4

8:01 pm

Plural of uv4,8

8:01 pm

lol!

8:01 pm

peri, like the 4/7, different consonant at the end

8:02 pm

ty, fran -- how did I miss that? halibut, pls.

8:02 pm

Peri - ma4/6 rhymes with what the teacher did.

8:02 pm

FranMag, was just typing it in when I saw your clue, thanks

8:02 pm

Peri, just change the last letter of ma 4, 7

8:02 pm

sorry, i only have Mahi, Ono and Ahi today

8:02 pm

ty, sue, I mean!

8:03 pm

8:03 pm

lib how about a nice squid?

8:03 pm

well peri, we all know that asking for a clue is a proven way to find a word, whether you get the clue or not!

8:03 pm

eeeeww, squid! only seafood I am appalled by-- rubber!

8:04 pm

en6/21 anyone?

8:04 pm

My phantom words of the day were Kevin, Nivea & I've forgotten. LOL.

8:04 pm

No kidding. Truly repulsive, whatever made someone think to eat it?

8:04 pm

Sue - I agree - eating calamari is like trying to chew rubber bands.

8:05 pm

en + the upper room, minus a "t"

8:05 pm

she's back....

8:05 pm

I LOVE squid!!!!!!!!!!!

8:05 pm

Eva (& Merp). Hi! en6/21 - related on the mother's side.

8:05 pm

8:05 pm

WELL DONE, FEATHER!

8:06 pm

Cat, an5/10 latin plural of the word right above it

8:06 pm

yay feather!!!!

8:06 pm

sueq said a word!!!!!!!!!!

clue for ou plz...

8:06 pm

I know you're supposed to taste things before deciding you don't like them-but you couldn't pay me to put squid in my mouth....well, maybe if I were heavily drugged and the price were steep enough....

8:06 pm

thank you peri

8:06 pm

oops

8:07 pm

cat, you need an5/10, latin plural of the 4/4 and ap5/12, the singular of the ap6/21

8:07 pm

Thanks FranMag

8:07 pm

squid, squid, bring on the squid!

8:07 pm

ou, sounds like you're sayings "on the ou**" with a cold

8:07 pm

thanks Fran

8:07 pm

disney - ou4/6 - a lute-like instrument from the East.

8:07 pm

you are all missing out!! squid is delicious when cooked correctly, doesn't taste fishy and isn't rubbery.

8:08 pm

Yea! I am done too, thanks so much for all of the clues.

8:08 pm

That ou word also sounds like the latest aliens from Dr. Who (the ones who look like they have the contents of a mincer coming from their mouths.)

8:08 pm

yay peri!!!!!

8:08 pm

congrats peri!!!!!!!

8:08 pm

I'm willing to miss out on some experiences...especially ones involved in ingesting tentacles.

8:08 pm

WELL DONE, PERI!

8:09 pm

I love to get FIREWORKS!!

8:09 pm

lol eva, i totally agree

8:09 pm

8:09 pm

There it is eva, tentacles, enough said.

agh..i'm not getting the clues..what's wrong with me?

8:09 pm

Anyone need any clues

8:09 pm

Yeah Peri!!!!!

8:09 pm

I'm off to Crete in a couple of weeks. Lots of seafood there, I imagine.

8:09 pm

disney, keep going down for the word

8:10 pm

disney - take an lo4 word that means the volume is too high... remove the first letter and then plural the word that is left.

8:11 pm

Going to read a book before bed, see you all tomorrow.

8:11 pm

the first ma6/36?

8:12 pm

I'm off too, nighty night everyone

8:12 pm

Peri - a whole book before bed? You must be a fast reader. LOL.

oh geez..thanks..guess what, i already have the ou, i'm just so excited cause i have 98 words and am trying to figure out what's left...i want fireworks :( thanks for the clues tho..

8:12 pm

8:12 pm

Eva - I clued that not long ago. Hang on...

8:13 pm

Eva - main villain of the Lego Bionicle universe, also known as 'Matoa'.

8:14 pm

8:14 pm

'Night SuzyQ.

8:14 pm

night sueq

i just wanna say -

i really like squid !!!

8:15 pm

lego who?!!!Sorry-not in my sphere of knowledge-neither is the power tool although I think that one is probably something I know.

also I LOVE SNAILS !!!!

8:15 pm

LOL, Helen. Loved the pause.

8:15 pm

well, hello, helen!

8:15 pm

hey helen! you finish earlier?

8:15 pm

Aw, Helen, not snails! I'm gonna be sick. You'll be saying you like frog's legs nect.

hiya lib :), jacula, feather, all

8:15 pm

eva, google the lego clue, that's how i got that one

8:15 pm

I have never tried a snail, dont know if I want to either, but I eat squid every time I get a chance.

8:15 pm

*next

brb

8:16 pm

helen-would you eat garden slugs? I mean they're just snails without homes

looking for the pe 6..please

8:16 pm

ewwwwww, eva! true, tho!

8:16 pm

lol eva....ewie!

8:16 pm

pe6 sounds like a nut, spelled with a different middle letter

8:17 pm

pe6 is plural of the pe5 before it. A nut spelled differently.

ooohhh..i'm so close! thanks!

8:18 pm

even if I were VERY hungry it would not occur to me to eat a slug (gag)

8:18 pm

During the apparent frenzy of gastropodical mating in my garden a couple of weeks ago, I swear I saw a slug and a snail 'at it'. Now what kind of creature is THAT going to produce, I ask....?

8:19 pm

A 'snug' maybe?

8:20 pm

Or will half the kiddywinks live in mansions and half be homeless?

8:20 pm

that's good jac!

8:20 pm

hehehe

8:21 pm

LOL jac-what an image-conjures up snail orgies...hard to put passion and slugs in the same sentence, but you did it. So, do you think you could give me a clue for the ma6/36 that doesn't involve searching fruitlessly through some horrific legos web site?

ok..plz a clue for pa 5/14 and pa 4/6

8:22 pm

Eva - I will try (re the clue). Then I'll tell you the story of my Mother, a cannabis plant and an orgy...

8:23 pm

ooooh, can't wait, for both the clue and the story!

snails have to be in just the right garlic-butter concoction for me to eat them - i would not do well on survivor :)

8:23 pm

disney, last part of llama like animal, al**** and then plural for the 5/14

8:23 pm

ma6...know lion king? known the song about no worries, and being happy? blend the two words, and that's it

8:23 pm

cabbabis plants can be hermaphroditic-- actually had a few in a long ago crop!

8:24 pm

Eva - try this... ma** (to construct or invent) + Salt State (think The Osmonds) minus the last letter.

was missing the plural (again), but now missing the other 4/6

8:24 pm

You guys are making me feel totally illiterate-don't know lion king either.

8:25 pm

disney, take the last vowel off of the plural

8:25 pm

aww! sorry! i teach kindergarten, so am very "up" on the latest disney movies

love disney!

i still have 7 to go :(

8:25 pm

need help helen?

8:26 pm

8:26 pm

8:26 pm

i mean ... go helen!!

8:26 pm

bless you jac-for your kindness to the uneducated!

tx - i ought to be able to monkey a 4

lol fran - that's kinda what i figured

8:27 pm

lol fran, i was wondering if you were telling us all "to helen" as in go to her and help!

8:27 pm

that too feather!!! ;-)

8:27 pm

Eva - The Story: Years ago, wild bird seed contained hemp seed (cannabis seed). During a good, hot summer, the hemp seed tha fell from bird tables grew like wildfire in British gardens. Mum had such a plant, 5' tall by her birdtable. 'What's this?' she asked me. 'It's a pretty plant!' 'Mum,' I said. 'That's pot!' In a panic, she ripped it out and threw it on her compost heap. Next morning it was covered (totally) with spaced out slugs and snails. Our slug and snail population rose locally about 200-fold!

8:28 pm

lmao, tripping snails, how funny!

8:28 pm

that is hilarious jacula!!! did they come from far and wide or did your own snails just have a population explosion??

LOL jacula - that's a great story!

8:28 pm

slugs look pretty spaced out anyway!

8:29 pm

hard to tell...

ke 4..have the one to keep

8:29 pm

Slugs and snails love anything addictive. That's why we use beer traps to get 'em here in UK.

8:29 pm

What a wonderful story! You're mother's innocence-and those very happy snails. They must have passd the word on from snail to snail about the party on the compost heap

8:29 pm

the other sounds like your house ke**

8:30 pm

slugs are so decadent! lol, jac!

8:30 pm

disney, just change the last letter of the one you have

8:30 pm

Eva - That year I think my Mum was not the only one chucking those plants on the compost heap. LOL.

yea!! six more to go!!!

8:30 pm

okay-missing on m- an ma5/18. Have the yiddish expert and the one that sounds like being in the maritime forces

8:30 pm

go jessi!!

8:30 pm

go jess!

8:31 pm

Do you want clues, Jessi?

8:31 pm

and I'm sure there were many people NOT chucking them away, but making other uses of them

8:31 pm

they all start with the same first 3 letters eva

are all the h's ha's?

my 5 yo is helping too..he's yelling letters! i'm looking for na 5/16

8:31 pm

and two of them sound alike...not the maritime forces one, but the other two

8:31 pm

Eva - erm,... yes.

8:31 pm

eva, the last one sounds just like the first

8:31 pm

yes helen

8:32 pm

thanks fran-guess there are a lot of alternate spellings

monkeying not so easy

8:32 pm

Eva - ma5/18 rhymes with a man's name beginning with G.

8:32 pm

na 5/16 sounds like one of the armed forces

8:33 pm

Sounds like mother on the French wine.

8:33 pm

have it-thanks everyone

8:33 pm

helen, two of the ha words have double vowels

8:33 pm

na5/16 sounds like the military na4/9, it's an anagram of an na word that means young and unknowledgeable

thx feather - got it

5 now

8:34 pm

go helen go!!!

the u from the middle?

8:34 pm

Who's after the 'na' words? Missed that.

8:34 pm

it's a four letter u helen

me..the na 5/16..still not gettin' it

Hi, all. Just checking back in. Anyone need a clue ? (dances triumphantly, having completed this one!)

8:35 pm

almost sounds like one of our states pluralized

8:35 pm

Helen - it's an old English word for festivity and merriment. Sounds more like the Osmond's home state pluralised though.

8:36 pm

jessi, if you have the ne4/7, add another vowel to it after the first letter

8:36 pm

Bookwyrmish - WELL DONE!

groan - thx jacula - i swear - the last 3 words i put in, i thought i had already

8:36 pm

yay bookwyrmish!!

na 5, 16 Think of niave, but put the dotted letter at the end and add the second vowel after the a. Tx guys

got it Fran! thanks everyone! i'm so excited, only five to go!

8:37 pm

go jessi!!!

and, uh, how many ka's?

8:37 pm

na5/16 is a type of birthmark.

8:38 pm

2 ka's

8:38 pm

2 helen, both 4 letters

8:38 pm

brb, have to feed my son...everyone...to jessi!!

8:38 pm

lol fran!

then it's a, no wait - are all the other k's ke's? i know it's a 4 i'm missing - 4 4's left :)

i think i'm missing the ma 5/16

8:38 pm

there's a kh also

noooooooooooooo

ma 5/16 is plural of the 4/7?

yeah feather - i just saw that LOL

8:39 pm

First sounds like more than one hissing character from the Jungle Book, or automobiles. The second sounds like a cut off bamboo to support plants or the first murderer.

8:39 pm

yesssssssssssss

DUH!

lol..i have missed EVERY plural today, geez. i'm so embarassed.

8:40 pm

ka4/9 - Think of the Peter Sarstedt song ' Where do you go to my Lovely?' Who bought her a race horse for Christmas? The Aga Kh**.

8:41 pm

That last clue should be 'kh'.

8:41 pm

that's ok jess, it happens!

how many sa's?

8:43 pm

3

like rosanne rosannadanna says - never mind!

i need the last pe 4/5

8:44 pm

lol

8:44 pm

"never minnnnd!"

8:44 pm

Jessi - last pe4/5 sounds like it hurts.

what did rosanne rosannadanna say ? it just goes to show you ....

8:45 pm

gilda was great

last pe 4,5, you've got an "in"

8:46 pm

Fireworks!!!First time in a long time that I haven't been too tired or in too much pain to finish. Feels good. Think I'll go out in the garden, round up some slugs and have a feast!

finally - fireworks!!

8:46 pm

Helen - sa7/32 - type of grass used for making hay. Sounds like a hessian bag that is very heavy. sa4/8 - 'for goodness sa**!', sa4/5 - what you find on beaches.

thanks! now off to figure out the three i'm still missing! congrats helen!!!

8:46 pm

WELL DONE, EVA!

they've been merciless in attacking the Ligularia. The good news is that they get so full they ignore everything else. The bad news is that the Ligularia looks like swiss cheese

8:48 pm

Jessi - there are 3 ma5/18s

8:49 pm

all those ma5/18 start with the same first 3 letters jessi

8:49 pm

jessi, two of them sound the same, the middle one is an adjective

8:49 pm

Jessi - ne4/5 is a Scottish turnip or swede. Also a type of sea tide.

ne 4,5 rhymes with the sound of a baby chick , means a special kind of tide

oohhh..good baby chick clue..

good nite feather :)

8:50 pm

ne4/4 - think spick and span, ne** and tidy.

ne 4,4 is what the place looks like after you have cleaned it up...

goodness..that was an obvious one! thanks..one left!!! the ma!

8:52 pm

1st ma5/18 is only initial letter different from the ha5 (sanctuary) word.

8:52 pm

if you have the ma5/18's that are the yiddish expert, just take the second one and change the n to a vowel

thanks for your help - see you at the flip, or tomorrow :)

8:52 pm

Okay Helen. Sleep well.

bye helen, thanks for your help!

8:52 pm

i would like to thank all of you cluers and the love of my life for the last 38 years for FIREWORKS tonight!!

disney jessi, all the ma 5,18 start with the same three letters. the first and third are almost the same and end with a consonant. the one in the middle ends with a vowel

8:52 pm

night Helen!

hey dis - today i just took, lol

woo hoo fuzzy, and fuzzy's love for letting him play!

8:53 pm

Okay fuzzy! Glad you're happy. Nice to see happy people here!

8:54 pm

this babble thing is getting to be a family affair.

8:54 pm

yay fuzzy!!!

cool. Do you sudoku, too?

8:54 pm

2nd ma5/18 rhymes with the sea force (not the land or air force).

8:54 pm

hey jess-can't go to sleep until you find that last one. How's it going?

8:54 pm

38 years and still getting fireworks. that's great fuzzy!! ;-)

8:55 pm

who else does sudoku?

lol..my 5 yo is praying for the soldiers, had to stop for a minute...he's so darn sweet

8:55 pm

Not to put any pressure on you or anything(-:

8:55 pm

3rd ma5/18 is your little Mother + French wine.

lol..i'm working on the ma that ends in a vowel

8:56 pm

babble fireworks, franmag. it's not saturday night yet.

8:56 pm

Ping - *Makes sign of the cross.* Me no do Soddingokuh! Words make me happy. Numbers make me cringe.

8:56 pm

it's the one that sounds like the sea armed forces

8:56 pm

lol fuzzy!!

8:56 pm

exactly my sentiments jac!

8:57 pm

Eva - glad we're as one on that!

8:57 pm

hey, I am back. Can I get a clue for the ca 6 pls?

ok..they all start with the same three letters, right?

8:57 pm

jac, i like your deliberate misspelling too!

8:57 pm

Jac, I'm that way too - but I seem chatters mention the S word sometimes

8:57 pm

Merp is waiting too jess

8:58 pm

jessi, same first 3 letters + easy as p**

8:58 pm

right jess. Oh-another approach-the word for a film, but replace the O with the first vowel

that's it!! but no fireworks??

109 words, right?

noooo, disneyjessi, there have to be fireworks! Did you miss one?

8:59 pm

wait just a minute and don't press anything

8:59 pm

what do you mean no fireworks?!!! Are all of your squares blacked in? Yes, there were 109 words

8:59 pm

hi babble gang!!! i've got 4 to go!!!! and i need some help?

8:59 pm

why don't you try refreshing?

8:59 pm

Jessi - you may have clicked on the Tile Stats. That can sometimes stop the fireworks.

8:59 pm

ca6/24, hat + a vowel + ** you like it

What do you need, orrchid?

8:59 pm

go orrchid!

oh..so sad. i have 109 words..but i'm not a subscriber so no blacked out tiles, no fireworks??

9:00 pm

9:00 pm

ca 6/24

9:00 pm

9:00 pm

9:02 pm

Now you finally get to go to bed Eva! Thanks!

9:03 pm

9:03 pm

9:04 pm

i'm down to 10

9:04 pm

aknitter, one is plural of a conjunction

9:04 pm

aknitter - Come on! If you can figure out a knitting pattern, you can figure out a Babble grid. I know Babble grids are Fair Isle and Aran patterns all mixed up at times but.... you can do it!

Night everyone! thanks again!

9:04 pm

add a vowel to that last one

9:04 pm

fare the well, eva

9:04 pm

.i didn't find the ca clue :(

I got the answer for an clues--if you slurr answer to ans*

9:04 pm

9:05 pm

orrchid, ca6/24 is hat + vowel + ** you like it

orrchid, the small hat *** plus the personal pronoun and ** you like it

9:05 pm

Orrchid - did you see my clue?

9:06 pm

9:06 pm

*passing aknitter some accuvue* ;-)

9:06 pm

Jac - who knows aknitter means her lenses really, still goes off on silly vision of her dusting and polishing everyone she knows. Sorry!

9:06 pm

thanks franmag (and it starts with an A too!)

9:07 pm

Evenin' all! Popped in for a few minutes to see if anyone needs a clue? :)

9:07 pm

Fancy a bit of trout, aknitter?

9:08 pm

Hi Jen.

Well, any last clues from me before I head to the afeared *S* puzzle page?

9:08 pm

On the APs, I'm missing the 5/20. Is it also related to the sleep disorder?

9:08 pm

trout? Yuck swedish fish would be nice

9:08 pm

Hey there Jac!

9:08 pm

And a fine good evening to one and all!

Nope, the ap is related to a mountain top

9:08 pm

AARGH! Bookwyrmish almost said that nasty word again!

Hey, GreyWoulf and Jen, long time!

9:08 pm

ap5/20 a + the top of a mountain

9:09 pm

9:09 pm

Hiya Wolfie. (((((HUGS))))))))

9:09 pm

{{*Jac*}}

9:10 pm

aknitter - you don't like freshly caught trout?? Not sure I'm familiar with any Swedish fish.

9:10 pm

thanks, jen - got it

9:10 pm

Doing very well, Jen --- I was just taken on permanent today!!

9:10 pm

Hi there book! :)

9:10 pm

TH 5/16 clue please

I've survived an end of school year grading period, and have retreated to the woods of Maine because my middle son is shutting down and needs quiet space (autism, asperger's, sensitivity to sound, etc.). First time I've left the rest of the family, GreyWoulf.

9:11 pm

jac - swedish fish are really sour gummy worm type candies that are bright red and sugar coated, no swedish fish in your country?

9:11 pm

Woo hoo for you woulf... uh, may I ask what that means? (sorry!)

9:11 pm

Herring? Turbot?

GreyWoulf, taken on permanent? Sounds promising!

9:12 pm

Oh right, aknitter. Possibly, I've never eaten that kind of sweet so wouldn't know.

9:12 pm

yay, fireworks for me, the migraine meds have kicked in and I feel great again.... anyone needs clues?

9:12 pm

Jen I have been in a temp position since my son was born

9:12 pm

i LOVE all types of sweets (and it shows)

9:13 pm

ma 5/18 is one letter (the last vowel) different from the first ma 5/18

9:13 pm

And another woot for you woulf!

9:13 pm

ma 5/18 and ma 6/27?

9:13 pm

9:13 pm

9:13 pm

9:14 pm

9:14 pm

hi Franmag!

ma 6/27 ma + sound owl makes, but change the secont o to another vowel.

9:15 pm

9:15 pm

ma6/27 is the elephant keeper/driver. (Indian word.)

9:15 pm

thx again book

9:15 pm

it would be fine if i could sleep in, but 1 year olds don't know the meaning of it!!

9:15 pm

the ma6/27 means " T he keeper and driver of an elephant.

9:15 pm

ap 5/20, on top of a mountain

9:15 pm

ap5/20 - a + mountain top.

;) no prob, orcchid.

9:16 pm

brb, have to do something else on-line for a bit

9:16 pm

9:16 pm

yw, wyrd

9:16 pm

Athletes have to be a + in the p*** of condition.

9:16 pm

Fran, almost 5 year olds don't know the meaning of sleep in either!!!

9:16 pm

I'm scooting over to another site for a bit. Luck, all!

9:17 pm

bye bookwyrmish

9:17 pm

Hardly saw you there Ping, so I would say not. WELL DONE!

9:17 pm

thanks, jac

9:17 pm

I'm going to hit Crickler and a couple of other games before I try to go to sleep... anyone need anything?

9:17 pm

And WTG ping!!

9:18 pm

do children really know the meaning of sleep? they certainly don't like to take naps, typically! And Ping, I agree, well done!!

9:18 pm

hullo people

9:18 pm

usually my last words are the totally obscure ones - tonight i had missed real obvious one - such as the small, green, round vegetables in the garden

9:18 pm

thanks, jen

9:18 pm

mich, mine stopped naps at 3 days before his 2nd birthday!!

9:18 pm

my kids are very untalented sleepers

9:18 pm

wrestling with sa7 -- is it a compound word please?

9:18 pm

I can't seee the ma 6/27

9:19 pm

Ping - it happens to us all! We get so hung up on looking for weird words we miss the normal ones. Hence the birth of the Babble fishslap.

9:19 pm

whoever made up the phrase "i slept like a baby" obviously never had one - or one of mine, at least!

9:19 pm

think spring wine, orchid

9:19 pm

sa7: a kangaroo pouch + 1st vowel + A LOT of weight

9:20 pm

lol, my last ones were the two 7s.... needs a2z to help me :) -- sa 7 clue, if there was a town named for Sacagawea, it might be called this.

9:20 pm

thank you jen :)

9:20 pm

and mich!

9:20 pm

jac, but for once i didn't actually ask for the easy ones - which is good since i'm allergic to seafood

9:20 pm

Mab - sa7 - hessian bag (for coal or flour or the like) but take off last letter + a heavy weight.

9:21 pm

1wt ca 4/6 please

9:22 pm

thanks jac :)

9:22 pm

ma6: ma + 8th letter + opp. of in

9:22 pm

ma6/27 - the elephant man. ma + 8th letter of alphabet + not in.

9:22 pm

that ma 6/27 is ma+ sounds like an owl's call

9:23 pm

ooooh, good clue mich!!

9:23 pm

ping, we

9:23 pm

aknitter - 1st ca4/6 - these gentlemen are not really gentlemen - they are ca** and bounders!

9:23 pm

i got spring wine..i neeed the very first ma 6/27

9:23 pm

ping, we'd hate to give you hives! (notes, no fish for ping)

9:24 pm

does anyone have the first ma 6/36? thanks!

9:24 pm

ty jac, it must be time for me to go to bed, i can't seem to find any of the easy ones tonight

9:24 pm

So, what do we slap Ping with? Stale buns?:-)

9:24 pm

abe, that one looks very japanese....

9:25 pm

how about ping pong balls tossed at ping?

9:25 pm

orrchid, your ma is the one with the owl's call

9:25 pm

It's the elephant keeper/driver.

9:25 pm

thanks mich...let me try it..

9:25 pm

i like it, aknitter, how about if she gets ponged instead of fishslapped

9:26 pm

i like to drive my own elephant

9:26 pm

aknitter - no, 'cos they'd keep pinging and ponging back and confuse the chatlog. LOL.

9:26 pm

yay fireworks. thanks mich

9:26 pm

YAY abe!!!!! you are welcome!!!

9:26 pm

ponged ... a great word

9:26 pm

Well done, abe!

9:27 pm

ponging, another word I like, Try and use that i a sentence to day

9:27 pm

hi all

9:27 pm

Okay, must return some e-mails as well as phone calls on opp. side of US before bed... I really hate time zones!!!! Have a great evening! And since hubby is coming into town tomorrow evening, I will talk with you all next week! :)

9:27 pm

Surely you get ponged everytime you go past a men's public loo?

9:27 pm

good night jen

9:27 pm

9:28 pm

Hello kierlex.

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

mich - they just STINK when you walk past them!

9:29 pm

true, true, true! why must men be so stinky and messy?

9:29 pm

dzhongka -- another intersting word

9:29 pm

SN 5/12 pleawe

9:29 pm

orrchid, same as spring wine without the sometimes vowel

9:29 pm

I guess male urine is stronger smelling due to old caveman stuff, scent marking or something. Or maybe male urine smells stronger to females and vice versa?

9:29 pm

ooopppss, please!

9:30 pm

lol my ex!!!!!!

9:30 pm

oh ya.... turns me on (ewwww)

9:30 pm

I like the caveman concept, plus there's the distance / splatter / inattention factors....

Hello- I'm baaaaack...I spent three HOURS Babbling clues this afternoon- I am Masochistic/Altruistic both. We had a hilarious conversation in which the tenets of the 12 step programs were applied to Babble, and came up with some VERY funny gems. Of course, our Higher Power is Dr_God...and then there's the steps, and the slogans...my contribution was ">And when we were wrong, promptly passeth the fish..." What do you folks think? LOL involved.

9:59 pm

yw Darci

10:00 pm

Thanx again mich

10:00 pm

ronnie, isn't it a GREAT feeling? Happy to help

10:00 pm

that it is mich, nothing like trying to got to sleep then seeing the word you missed the next day thinking what a dummy I was

10:01 pm

everyone tonight gave great clues much appreciated.

10:02 pm

okay it was multiple angry cats -- I went out on my porch and there were two cats hanging out -- apparently a third that I've never seen before came along and picked a fight ... meanwhile, I don't even like cats, but I inherited these cats as frequent visitors from the previous owners ... I think they must have marked my porch or something!

10:02 pm

Just come back from another site. Well done for finishing, ronnielee!

10:02 pm

the cats, not the owners, marked the porch, that is

10:03 pm

congrats ronnie!

10:03 pm

nrkii, you know what works for cat pee? Orange peel based cleaners. I have two cats, both not territorial, and other cats come along and spray my door, etc. & it STINKS! Cats don't like citrus smells, either

10:04 pm

nrkii - cats DO that! I'm more of a doggy person than a catty person, but, somehow, since my old dog died I have ended up with 2 cats living in. Could have been more, had the in situ cats allowed it. Just as well for me that they do that really, otherwise might end up as one of those 'mad old women with 100 cats'.

10:05 pm

good advice -- these cats are okay, sometimes it makes me laugh that they hang out on my porch (though once I answered the door, and one of the cats came inside, and I had to get a neighbor to grab the cat for me -- I'm allergic)

10:05 pm

As for the marking - it's not the house they mark, it's the daft twit living in it. The look at you and think, 'There's a soft touch! I'll move in there, if it suits me.@

10:05 pm

lol jacula

10:05 pm

I think they say, "there's a dog person! I'll show them!"

10:06 pm

10 people in a room, I'm the only one allergic, I'm the first one the cat goes to...

10:07 pm

nrkii - I once wrote about on cat psychology. Cats ALWAYS go to the one that ignores them. The HATE being fussed too much.

10:08 pm

*meant wrote a book.

10:08 pm

any clues for the pa5/12?

10:08 pm

pa + string b*** (vegetable)

10:08 pm

lol, Jac! One of my cats moved in with us, to my neighbor's chagrin! when I went to Italy for 3 weeks and he stayed in my old apt with my "real" cat while she filled the bowl every couple of days, that's when she decided maybe he wasn't hers anymore. Jac, I slightly disagree, as my adoptive cat, whom I used to call "the Interloper", is a glutton for affection and has to be in my lap whenever I sit down.

hi everyone!

10:09 pm

ty nrkii!

10:09 pm

pa5/12 - A song of joyful praise or exultation.

10:09 pm

hi TO!

10:09 pm

Hi Temple!

10:09 pm

hi temple!

hurrying to finish...just back from doobie brothers concert...

may i begin with the o word from the left top o please?

10:11 pm

(nrkii, what's tomorrow's theme? clowns, sadness, or creepy childhood icons?)

10:12 pm

like what you have 3 of in every half inning of baseball, but change the first consonant

10:12 pm

clowns Mich, and I'm not a big fan of clowns, so I went with emmett kelly

10:12 pm

TO, sounds scottish, it's a plural, starts with vowels....

10:13 pm

clowns have always creeped me out

10:13 pm

mich - I could also disagree with my own research and book. My first full-time cat (there had been many part-timers over the years before her) had been abandoned at least twice in her life. She gets worried when she gets too much 'fuss' but also follows me around, or comes to find me if I am gone 'too long', and she hates it and frets if I go away on holiday. I'm due to go to Crete for a fortnight soon, the longest I will have left either her or my 'kids' (22 and 19). I hope she and they will be okay. The cat, I think, is terrified of being abandoned again. The 'kids' will cope! LOL.

where are your frozen confections, ladies?

10:15 pm

Temple - it's clowns theme day here in UK and I HATE clowns and so have gone for this icon. Click on my profile to read it.

10:15 pm

temple, I just changed so I could go to bed a little early tonight and be ready for tomorrow -- I keep my icons on home computer, but I start playing work computer, so I have to switch the night before

10:15 pm

jac, what's the book called? LOL, just read your plaque!

i ate mine....

10:16 pm

Jac, I have a greeting card that says that, but haven't figured out who to send it to yet

10:16 pm

good evening folks

10:16 pm

Hi LeslieAnn

hi leslie ann!

10:16 pm

hi LeslieAnn!

10:16 pm

i neeeeeeed a sa 4 b/t something on the beach and for heavens sa**

10:16 pm

I am very very excited about Saturday's theme though...

10:16 pm

which is?

10:16 pm

Hi LeslieAnn!

10:17 pm

nothing between them mm

10:17 pm

saturday's theme is "an image to meditate on"

10:17 pm

intriguing....

10:17 pm

and I found the perfect image for that but it's a SECRET

10:18 pm

will be sure to find you Sat. to see it :)

10:18 pm

what if we say pretty please?

10:18 pm

nrkii - could be problematic. I once sent a card to a friend re sperm in the throat asking each other , 'How far to the womb?' to a friend who DID find it funny. Unfortunately, her hubby was VERY offended by it!

10:19 pm

I'm leaving my chair..... let's say the clown just left to return later.... Oh Jac! too funny!

10:19 pm

yes, I could see how you might get mixed response on that one ROFL

10:19 pm

mich - can't tell you as want to keep this site just for me and Babble.

10:19 pm

nrkii - I reckon the hubby was miffed. LOL.

10:19 pm

that's okay, Jac. I completely understand wanting to maintain some anomynity

10:20 pm

hmmm, well as I am not fond of clowns... I could always put up my image to meditate on early...

10:20 pm

I meant the PI's 4/5 first 2

10:20 pm

Hi all

10:20 pm

(that spelling doesn't look right.....)

10:20 pm

Help please, en 6 21? thanks

10:20 pm

anomynity?

10:20 pm

hi mymuse

10:21 pm

p + actor McKellan

10:21 pm

anonymity?

10:21 pm

Miss Zadora and others with same PI* name

10:21 pm

That was for mich re spelling, btw.

10:22 pm

en 6/21 - en+ room near roof, lose a t

10:22 pm

Yoda, EN + room above the second floor where you store stuff (lose one of the middle consonants)

10:22 pm

thanks, ladies, classic typo

10:22 pm

room near roof, much simpler than mine, cool

10:22 pm

thanks nrkii!

10:22 pm

Yoda - you DO realise that you will never be accepted as a word by the Enable dictionary? LOL.

10:23 pm

3 PE 4/5's

10:23 pm

...And the day I see my Babble name in the grid I will faint!

10:24 pm

like 2 pe** in a pod

10:24 pm

such is life

10:24 pm

stid's in here all the time!

10:24 pm

pe** moss

10:24 pm

pe+ opp of out

10:24 pm

The clown was making me sad -- I'm skipping ahead to Saturday

10:25 pm

how about the ma 6 36 (both of them), thanks

10:25 pm

pe4/5 - a song of praise. pe4/5 = small round green vegetables. pe4/5 - what's found in Irish bogs, pe4/5 - sounds like it hurts.

10:25 pm

P+ not nice

10:25 pm

hey everybody!

10:25 pm

hi Fran!

10:25 pm

hey fran!

10:25 pm

hi fran

10:26 pm

hiya fran

10:26 pm

ma 6/36 = merriest month + fruit off the ***e

10:26 pm

Incidentally - that last pe4/5 is a type of stonemason's hammer head.

10:26 pm

ma 6/36, first, sounds japanese, like a car company

10:26 pm

what's saturday's theme nrk??

10:26 pm

ma+what scissors do, change letter, + 1st vowel

10:26 pm

An Image to Meditate on, Fran

10:26 pm

brb

10:27 pm

I was going to go with a yoga mat, but I'm not really a yoga kind of girl

10:27 pm

more of a toilet kind of girl??

10:27 pm

I expect to see a lot of navels (belly buttons) on Saturday!

10:27 pm

just refreshed, oh MAN, nrkii! i love it

10:28 pm

LeslieAnn, some of my best thinking...

10:28 pm

Jacula, probably true -- hadn't thought of that

10:28 pm

I tend to read on the loo, or listen to the birds singing or something. I THINK when I'm supposed to be sleeping.

10:29 pm

there's the pun aspect too.... is it an image upon which one mediates, or the image of an object that one is on while mediating? Very Tao

10:29 pm

thanks everyone got the ma's!!

10:29 pm

yay Yoda!

10:29 pm

Good evening Everybody! How is everybody tonight?

10:29 pm

hi minver

10:29 pm

Hi Minveryork

10:29 pm

I started out listless and now I resorted to Lickety's.

10:29 pm

wonderful, you?

10:30 pm

Good evening Minveryork.

10:30 pm

Hi Minver!

10:30 pm

this was a wacky grid, lots of odd words today

10:30 pm

any clues for pe 5 22 or pe 6 33? Thanks

10:30 pm

the babble fairy left a generous helping of unusual words for us to work on today

10:30 pm

i switched my icon to Friday's. didn't want to do clowns either

10:30 pm

Fran are those clownfish

10:30 pm

and it felt like more than the usual number of ALMOST words too

10:30 pm

Yoda, southern nuts, goofy spelling

10:31 pm

10:31 pm

yes muse!

10:31 pm

hey nrkii !

10:31 pm

lol ok will look for smoething else

10:31 pm

Yoda pe5/22 - An implement consisting of a wooden shaft with a metal point and a hinged hook near the end, used to handle logs. Or sounds like a character from Hogwarts.

10:31 pm

hi renfield

10:31 pm

When I click on your icon, the frozen dish still comes up

10:32 pm

i went for illustrated clown fish, there were a lot of nice photograph ones muse.

10:32 pm

hey t-owl!

10:32 pm

what is after 1st ta 4/8

10:32 pm

ca6/24 is small hat + a vowel + ** you like it TO

10:32 pm

I was gonna do Finding Nemo

10:32 pm

manic, another ta4/8

ty for ca 6!

10:33 pm

Yoda - pe6/33 is plural of the 5/20 above it. (Mad spelling of a nut.)

10:33 pm

Fran, those fish are gorgeous! are there clownfish in Hawaii?

10:34 pm

i was looking for the evil clown from IT, but decided clowns in general were creepy so i found the fish

10:34 pm

sometimes it feels like a nut.....sometimes it don't

10:34 pm

Hey all! mich, you there? Did you see that our boy, Gale Harold, is going to be on a show on Fox this fall?

10:34 pm

except evanonut... i bet she always feels like a nut

10:34 pm

fran, I thank you for that -- evil clowns scare the crap out of me -- childhood scar

10:34 pm

mich, the two or three-banded ones are not native here, but they around because of the popularity of Nemo

10:35 pm

cannot find the ta 4/8

10:35 pm

we have other kinds of clown fish that live in the anemones though

10:35 pm

*Resolves to take a close-up pic of her daughter's pierced navel for later.

10:35 pm

manicmama, just change your last vowel on the one you have, I think

10:35 pm

chic! I saw you mention that a while ago, very happy about it -- still haven't seen the Unit, though. A whole show with him in it.....*homer-like drool*

10:35 pm

ok down to the last four and i'm having a devil of a time. any help with the ap 5/20, the ap6/21, the en 6/21 and one of the ip5/12s ( i have the one that means not skilled)

10:35 pm

manic, just change the last vowel of the one you have, they both start with the same 3 letters

10:35 pm

err. i mean the in 5/12s. sheesh.

10:36 pm

ap 5/20 is a sleep disorder, ap 6 is plural of same

10:36 pm

I contemplate on that! I mean. I grew this perfect child and then she goes and gets piercings all over the place.

10:36 pm

darci, the in 5/12 only have a different third letter

10:36 pm

aha! thanks leslieann!

10:36 pm

en 6/21 is en + room just under the roof, but lose a T

10:37 pm

:) Jac

10:37 pm

a & mountaintop, sleep disorder & plural

10:37 pm

It's called 'Vanished" FBI story line on Mon nites. He gets to wear suits too..

10:38 pm

10:38 pm

*more homer drool with accompanying sounds*

10:38 pm

a + p***-a-boo but different spealling

10:38 pm

Much worse (because permanent) is the whole spine tattoo. She hasn't got it yet; it's still being designed.

10:38 pm

AAARGH!

10:38 pm

yay!!! fireworks!!!

10:38 pm

a + don't call my cell phone during p*** hours, darci

10:38 pm

mich and chic, who is this object of loin quiveration you are discussing??

10:38 pm

yay darci!!!

10:38 pm

Does she have any idea how awful it will look when she is older??

10:38 pm

hooooray darci!!

10:39 pm

TO ve4 above & facial spasm

10:39 pm

Thanks Mich and Jacula got them finally. How about that ve 7?

10:39 pm

YAY DARCI!!

10:39 pm

YAYAYAYAY Darci!!! Woo-hoo!

10:39 pm

good job Darci!!!

10:39 pm

hooray Darci!

10:39 pm

last pa 5/12 ??????

10:39 pm

jacula, you did your job, you got her to adulthood!! the rest is all her

10:39 pm

add the facial spasm to the ve4/7

10:40 pm

spine tattoo Jacula?

10:40 pm

ve7 - to do with blood vessels. ve+ initial of the man who built the ark + loft minus 3rd letter (at word).

10:40 pm

ok, time to go spend some time with my husband and my two pups. they've been neglected long enough. :)

10:40 pm

later darci!!

10:40 pm

mama Pa+ ending of big body of water

nice clues mich, jacs1 TY!

10:40 pm

nrkii - yes a vine with fairies flying around it down the whole length of her spine.

10:41 pm

ooh, sorry jac, but that sounds kind of cool

10:41 pm

Jac-- they never care about later, cause they're never going to be as old and square as their parents. I just have nieces & nephews.... no known deviant piercings or tats, but the oldest is just 15....

10:41 pm

mich - I think our daughter goes out of her way to shock us.

10:41 pm

1st ta 4/8 ??? or last pa 5/12

10:42 pm

mymuse clued the pa at 10:40, manicmama

10:42 pm

Me and my 'ex' are still reeling from all her time in hospital. I guess she is punishing us (and herself far more) for the break up.

10:42 pm

I am keeping track of my words tonight on Lickety's without printing it out. It is so much easier this way!

10:42 pm

t+ commercials

10:43 pm

my friend's 8 y o daughter eats bugs to shock her mom.... only child, homeschooled, it's only going to get worse!

10:43 pm

manicmama pa + vowel + vowel + cons

10:43 pm

I have that one.......t +commercials

10:43 pm

I have a full back tat myself.. I figure if I'm willing to put that much money into being vain now, I will probably be willing to put enough in to remove it later. :P

10:43 pm

Jac, I'm sorry, I did

10:43 pm

ooh mich! that sounds awful!

10:43 pm

PA + string b*** (vegetable)

10:43 pm

Until then, I'm going to enjoy it. If I get 20 years out of 500 bucks, I think I'm doing pretty well.

10:44 pm

you ate bugs?? :)

10:44 pm

that's the first ta, change last vowel for the other one

10:44 pm

I tried Lickety's list from the start on the small grid a couple of days ago. Since I'm used to doing things the old way, no lists etc., I found it made it harder and slower for me. But that's just me. I prefer to think on my heels, I guess.

10:44 pm

you ate bugs?? :)

10:44 pm

didn't realize she's been hurting herself (((((hugs))))))

10:45 pm

*I* don't eat bugs! just stray cat hair by accident

10:45 pm

lol

10:45 pm

cehess, good point. i got one on my back, cause i figured if i got tired of it, i didn't have to see it

10:45 pm

Does the back tat hurt a lot? Things near the bone tend to! It must be done in 4 -6 sessions, surely?

10:46 pm

Does anyone have a clue for the ap 5/20 word please

10:46 pm

I'll probably spend more on hair dye than that in 20 years Leslie! ^^

10:46 pm

Oh well, I don't even have pierced ears! LOL.

10:46 pm

something that big would definitely take a few visits jac, for the outline first than coloring later!

10:46 pm

ap5/20 - a + top of a mountain.

10:46 pm

a+ pe**-a-boo, homophone, homonym whichever

10:47 pm

Hi again folks -- sorry to disappear before, but I got pulled away

10:47 pm

It hurt on the spine and the shoulder blades, but not enough to bring tears or anything. But then everyone is different. She won't want to be in a hurry though, because making a tat artist go over a spot that already raw increases the pain a lot.

10:47 pm

LOL, mymuse.

10:47 pm

hullo gw

10:47 pm

So multiple visits are a very good thing

10:47 pm

He what a cutie you are Grey WOulf! lol

10:47 pm

Thank you muchly Jacula!I finished my ap words now.

10:47 pm

Hiya Wolfie. Bedtime story, was it?

10:47 pm

ONLY ONE LEFT IS THE TA 4/8........SORRY TO BOTHER YOU GUYS........must finish........must.........

10:47 pm

Hey LA!!

10:48 pm

do you have the one that rhymes with cookies and ca**, manic?

10:48 pm

No Jac -- just got sucked into a game of Literati with friends and I can't follow the log and play Lit at the same time

10:48 pm

change last vowel of the one following it

10:48 pm

ta4/8 - to ta** without permission is theft.

10:48 pm

manicmama your ta after the one your missing change your vowel

10:48 pm

have that one thanks

10:49 pm

manic..... there's one that means to grab, another is the same but swap the end vowel for the first vowel in the alphabet

10:49 pm

Imaginary fireworks for me.

hi woulfie!

10:49 pm

The other ta4 is Indian curency but sounds like a Maori wwar chant.

manicmama, you have the opposite of GIVE?

10:52 pm

10:53 pm

mab -- it is indeed a relief -- the knowledge that I will be able to meet my financial obligations for the next couple of years has already dropped some stress from my shoulders

10:53 pm

manic -- it won't take cross letter, first vowel, 11th letter, first vowel?

10:53 pm

10:54 pm

10:54 pm

do you have the ta 4 5 x 2 or the 4 4?

10:54 pm

i may even use my grapefruit clown

10:54 pm

check your list again, manic, there are only two ta 4/8s

10:55 pm

I have all appropriate respect for clowns. My clown that I picked though, was depressing.

10:55 pm

yes i have opp of give.... and the same word with different vowel..... I have the 11th letter one

10:55 pm
