Hi mymuse!

1:17 am

i think i've figured out one trigger, being out in the sun gardening. OF COURSE THAT IS MY FAVORITE THING TO DO. sigh. Three weekends in a row it has happened (and yes i drank lots of water)

i wonder if anyone will put up their real high school pics - i would but i don't know how to put pictures in this thing

1:17 am

well, I looked reallylame in my yearbook photo-- deer in headlights...

1:17 am

Mine's real :)

kier - did you wear a big sun hat?

1:17 am

I would if I could.

LOL cat!!!

1:17 am

not going to put up my school pix. nosiree

1:18 am

I can't see it yet, takes hours before I can lol

1:18 am

you have to refresh the upload page first, then it takes

1:18 am

lol, cat & helen!

1:18 am

no, helen. can't stand hats. not that i like migraines either

1:18 am

that;s a fine pic cat9x... you look so young

1:19 am

I know mymuse, but I can refresh till the cow's come home, no go, just takes my computer hours before I can see it

junior year i took the best mug shot ever - i looked like pure evil - i wonder if the photographer said something to get that sneer outta me? don't remember

1:19 am

Thanks kier, thats my senior pic lol

1:19 am

lol, kier!

1:19 am

I had that punk, purple hair thing going lol

1:20 am

kier - I used to get weekend headaches, sometimes migraines. Finally figured out it was because I wasn't drinking coffee and eating sugary things that I did every day at the office. A complicated thing involving yeast - I don't get them anymore.

1:20 am

i was such an ugly duckling in high school. and junior high.

1:20 am

did you break the camera, helen? -D

kier - when i had them all i could do was lay down in a dark room with an ice pack over most of my head & eyes - i surely couldn't babble

1:20 am

hmm, broll, that is interesting. though i still drink plenty of caffeine on the weekend...

1:21 am

We don't have high school pic books in Holland!

1:21 am

let's here it for Holland!

1:21 am

hey evryone..how many words today in the grid..?

1:21 am

lucky you, sprite!

1:21 am

mine aren't totally debilitating like that. i get nauseous and flushed and my eyes water. actually, if i don't MOVE my head it doesn't hurt too much but if I do it just SLAMS AND THROBS. I just muddle thro otherwise i would be in the hole on sick leave and etc =(

1:21 am

1:22 am

1:23 am

lol, helen!!

1:23 am

hi JG

lol sleeky - now that's a whole nother story

1:23 am

Never had them, sorry to disappoint you. Owww sleeky... you should see the pic on my driver's licence. I look like about 30 years older than I was and UGLYYYYY!

1:24 am

I looked kind of like Jobba the Hut in mine.

1:24 am

only, better dressed

1:24 am

sprite and others who do not yet know: we have new Babble Calendars for bithdays and icon themes linked on the second page of the resource guide.

1:24 am

lol, sleeky!

1:24 am

Actually, the pic is so bad, that when I am being pulled over by a cop I say I don't have a licence. Better the fine than show my pic.

1:25 am

hehe

LOL sprite!!

1:25 am

i look like i've been smoking a little doobage in my driver's license picture

1:25 am

well.... *were* you?

1:25 am

clue for teh an 8 anybody?

1:25 am

nooooope.

1:25 am

Kier - it turns out it isn't the caffeine, it's the sugar! Do you get the "sugar shakes" when you haven't eaten for a while?

1:25 am

any clues anyone?

LOL kier!!

1:26 am

sugar shakes= hypoglycaemia,, low blood sugar

1:26 am

broil--well i get kind of dizzy/lightheaded/nauseaus

1:26 am

well i had my blood tested and it was ok

1:27 am

my license pic is so bad that I get offended when I pass as myself!

lol - that's a good one lib

1:27 am

hey JGalloway

1:27 am

an7 - means placing before or in front

1:27 am

true, helen...

1:29 am

well, it's 2:30 am-- to be w/ me; nite, all :)

1:29 am

any help with ac7?

ok lib, good nite

i think i'll be going too - good nite everyone :))

1:30 am

kier - that's like almost a deal giveaway clue. I had the blood tests too. Read up on yeast imbalance and go cold turkey on the sugar and carbs. You will be amazed how much better you feel on the 5th day. (But you will feel like sh** till then - the Herksheimer effect.)

1:30 am

don't have it yet angel

1:30 am

*dead* giveaway

1:31 am

nite, helen :)

yep - good place to quit - 70 to go, bye!

clue for the ac7: high card + anagram of pedal digits.

1:37 am

thx angel!

1:38 am

broil, thanks, i will look into that. i tend to get those nasty yeast infections too =( that is too much info for all ya'll but oh well...

1:41 am

thanks angel

1:42 am

kier - one good book is "The Yeast Connection and the Woman" by Dr. Crook, although he tends to belabor the point and your eyes start to glaze over about halfway through.

1:44 am

i think i would die if i didn't get to drink coca cola =(

1:45 am

thank you broil, i will look into this more when i am more laert. added the book to my email reminders

1:46 am

night all, cya tomorrow

1:46 am

yw, and good luck!

1:46 am

reds

1:46 am

hi all...has there been a clue yet for the an 8?

1:46 am

omg, sorry

1:47 am

82 to go and I'm off to bed. night, all

1:48 am

oh! I found it. nevermind

1:49 am

Darn, I want 'recollect'!

1:53 am

i swear 'nads' was accepted as a word before

1:54 am

I tried that about 3 times too.

1:54 am

ohmigosh i got an 8 letter word ALL BY MYSELF!! Yeah ME =)

1:55 am

wtg kierlex! Gives a kick, right :)

1:55 am

yep... small victories =)

1:56 am

What is wrong with 'endorfine'? That IS a word, for sure?

1:56 am

hi all :)

1:57 am

sure, endorfine would make a phine word

1:57 am

Hey Ata! This is an 'almost there' grid if I have ever seen one. Darn, you are right kierlex, I was looking for the dutch spelling :(

1:58 am

ahh, well, i don't know jack about dutch spelling !

1:58 am

did you guys get hiatal hernia yet?

1:58 am

Usually an "F" for your "PH". Like in 'endorfine', grrrrrrr.

1:59 am

Well, figures, when we have almost hernia, we can do with almost endorphin.

1:59 am

my phantom word, screech, tried half dozen times already :(

1:59 am

there's a lot of gaelic words in babble i imagine =)

2:00 am

But 'recollect' is freaking me out here. I WANT it!

2:00 am

I have tried screech several times as well as sacrifice

2:00 am

testing 1 2 3

2:00 am

how about sneeze?

2:00 am

how about sneeze?

2:01 am

Bless you jilli!

2:01 am

good evening everyone - how is the grid tonight? Looks long

2:01 am

spproximately how many hours a day do you guyz spend on babble..?

2:02 am

ty sprite

2:02 am

hi jmann....

2:02 am

I live here, never leave

2:02 am

too many

2:02 am

Hi Jm :)

2:02 am

lol

2:02 am

JMann: it's fun, but very frustrating today.

2:02 am

too many hours on babble when i should be sleeping or doing the dishes or paying bills or or or or

2:02 am

hey Cat - like the icon for today

2:03 am

thanks Sprite for the heads up

2:03 am

Thanks JM, I haven't changed much, a little more gray :)

2:04 am

You are SO pretty, Cat!

2:04 am

THere isn't enough money to make me put my hideous HS pic on here lol

2:04 am

Why thank you sprite! :)

2:04 am

oh, i don't believe that - you look just the same as you did in HS

2:04 am

the glasses really do it

2:05 am

You're eyes are probably going JM, but I'll agree anyway LOL

2:05 am

lol

2:05 am

The glasses complete my ensemble :)

2:06 am

If you can't tell by the pic, I was very popular in HS, or was it just the tongue thing I had going, hmmmm

2:06 am

Ok. No sacrifice, no hernia, no recollect, no ocelot, no screech, no endorfine. I am starting to hate this grid.

2:06 am

good morning everybody:)

2:06 am

ok, 'nuf, back to the grid :)

2:07 am

hello jean

2:07 am

good morning jean :)

Crikey - long one - I'd liked the short grids. Re icon - well, my high school picture is in the States, so settle for me rendered as a South Park character :D

2:07 am

I don't think you can attribute that to only one thing, Cat. The purple hair, the look in that pretty eye, that tongue thing, the glasses... it's all working together :D

2:07 am

I know - it's the whol package - hair, glasses, necklace AND tongue

2:08 am

Why thank you sprite, how sweet! I was hot huh :)

2:08 am

LOL JM

Phantom word - hernia

2:09 am

yup, and we have more Matty :) lot's more!

2:09 am

Yeah matty. And endorphin. And sacrifice. And recollect. Join the club, LOL!

2:10 am

new phantom word - escort

Oh dear - phantom word city, ay? How's the eights and nines - real words or weird words?

2:10 am

solstice

2:10 am

take out a letter and you will get an es5!

2:10 am

Right mab,that one too!

2:10 am

The 2 8 letter ones that I have are real words

2:10 am

real words Matty, nothing too wierd

2:10 am

Morning all

2:11 am

good morning FM

2:11 am

Hey FMitch. Welcome to this teaser grid!

2:11 am

good morning FM :)

2:11 am

It is, I've just crossed the 1/2 way point and am pausing for breath.

2:11 am

i don't have my picture either, mattiegroves (had the school burned down before the yearbooks could be distributed), but this modigliani is pretty close.

2:12 am

we have a cereal in the grid, plural

2:12 am

oops, meant not plural

Hey Mab - is your name buffy, then? (the Movie and Season 3...) OK, I'm an anorak

2:13 am

The i8/9 combo makes me feel very humble indeed.

2:13 am

i'm not familiar with buffy, sadly.

Like I said, I'm sad... LOL

Does it now Sprite? Care to elaborate :D

2:14 am

That was a clue, matty ;)

2:14 am

Clue, they are in's :)

Yes...I'd guessed that. He!

2:15 am

the answer to which, sprite, i nearly typed in the chat

2:16 am

Hehehe, that would have been a shame for who hasn't found them yet, but it happens. All the time! :)

2:17 am

didn't we just have a discussion about that last night?

2:18 am

We did. We almost do that every day. Guess we all want to be free from the post-word-in-chatlog curse.

Got it...was a lesser evil than I thought ;)

2:18 am

I did love 'Charmed,' though matty, which I'm thinking is sort of similiar. So I'm sad too.

2:19 am

matty: it leads to the An8 as well :)

2:20 am

thank you sprite

2:21 am

I kept trying to plural that an8

I had a colleague who loved Charmed - I watched it, but liked Buffy better (and Star Trek, Stargate and the new Doctor Who rocks seriously)

2:21 am

ante

2:21 am

And rightly so. Only stupid enable doesn't agree, Cat :(

Thanks Sprite!

2:21 am

yikes, sorry!

2:21 am

anyone a fan of "balltlestar gallactica"?

Me, me *raises hand frantically*

2:22 am

only the original film .... I haven't watched any of the new series (yet!)

2:23 am

wellll!!! My son is a major diector of that, she says proudly, in fact he in Vanvouver working on an episode as we spaeak

2:23 am

Wow helenary, that makes you almost an insider!

2:24 am

is it your birthday, atalante!?

2:24 am

don't follow the week by week stuff. Its bigger in USA than Aussieland

I've seen most of Season 2, and Sky1 are re-running season 1. Given my backwards watching, I'll then watch the DVD of the miniseries. It's fab, but unrelentingly grim! I like Vancouver. Stargate's made there as well (and I've been to the city in 1986)

2:25 am

it won Peabody and Hugo awards, she says humbly again!!!

Who's your son?

2:26 am

look for his name Michael Rymer

2:26 am

You must be very proud of him :)

I will - it's on tonight on Sky!

2:27 am

That is really something, helenary! A director! I don't know a soul in show business and am quite impressed. wow!

2:27 am

oh great..he has done many many of the episodes. I met all the cast a couple years back in Vancouver. They are like a family now

2:28 am

yup! and I feel like having birthday cakes as no-one else is here to say I can't have cake for breakfast apart from pup and kit!

2:28 am

thanks for that. I'll tell hime. Thinks I am nuts babbling. Have to go and work for an hour. seeya

2:28 am

Happy Birthday Atalante!!!!!

2:29 am

oh just read its your birthday atalante have a good one

2:29 am

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! Hurrah for Atalante!!!!!

2:29 am

Happy Birthday Atalante - I'll come over for cake! What kind?

2:29 am

Atalante: Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday dear Ata... Happy birthday to you! And you can have anything you like for breakfast, of course!

2:29 am

Cake for breakfast! Cake for breakfast! Happy Birthday Ata!

2:29 am

2:29 am

*hands round gooey chocolate cake*

2:29 am

Happy Birthday Ata!!! Woo Hoo!!!

2:30 am

Owwww.... *tries to hide her drooling*

2:30 am

2:30 am

YUMMM! Love chocolate cake for breakfast! Happy Birthday!

2:30 am

Aww, thanks Ata! :)

2:32 am

Oh cat, that is precious! I love the little stuck out tongue.

2:33 am

Thank you Mab :)

2:35 am

Ata, I see fireworks. Must be in your honor! :)

2:36 am

woot!!!

2:36 am

Congrats sprite

2:36 am

Sprite? Already? wow! congrats!

2:36 am

I'm trying to babble at the same time as playing with my new toy - a drawing tablet for my computer, and failing to anything much with either!

2:36 am

ooooh! ahhhhhhh! well done sprite!

2:36 am

Atalante, happy birthday! I just added you to the Babble Birthdays Calendar.

2:37 am

How do you do it Sprite?

2:37 am

Have fun Ata, it's your day!!!

2:37 am

oh ata, that sounds fun.

2:37 am

Oooo, Ata - a drawing tablet! Can I play too?

2:37 am

sure!!! its *such* fun! it makes like *so* much easier trying to draw digitally!

2:38 am

aha! I have babble on one side of my screen and photoshop on the other!

2:42 am

Just by never givng up, amanda, LOL

2:49 am

100 all by myself! Is that anywhere near maybe halfway?

2:50 am

very nearly halfway!

2:50 am

Yes, good going amanda - 211 today.

2:51 am

I don't know how you do it sprite :) I have 88 left, you are good! :)

2:51 am

Well, not bad if I do say so myself. Are there any z's I need to set my monkeys to?

2:52 am

lol 46 words and half an arm drawn. I can see babble is going to take me all day today!

2:52 am

Snap Cat I've 88 left too :) No z words amanda.

2:52 am

No Z's amanda :)

2:52 am

Oh hurray for that - the monkeys can sleep a bit longer...

2:52 am

:) I am sure you will finish before I do Ata, I've been at it a couple hours :)

2:54 am

hmmm, won't let me REtee, grrr

2:55 am

I doubt I will - but I can try! :)

2:56 am

Good morning all. What's the concensus of opinion on the grid?

2:56 am

goode morning haz

2:56 am

oops meant to put good

2:56 am

A tad sticky, but not too bad, for me anyway, hi Haz :)

2:57 am

fun, Haz!

2:57 am

Hi Haz! I got the first 100 all by my little ole' lonesome - dunno about the other half though

2:57 am

I only have 75 words and eyes are slamming shut so bye bye

2:57 am

awww no Dr Hannibal

2:57 am

Ata, yes there is.

2:57 am

bye jillibus

2:57 am

Right - here I go. Happy birthday Atalante (I've just scrolled down the chat log)

2:58 am

hey haz - how's it going?

2:58 am

ty Haz!

2:58 am

Morning Haz Lots of words today but so far so good.

2:58 am

not exactly Dr. Hannibal, but the thing he stands at?

2:58 am

Ata, my mistake. no Dr Hannibal.

2:59 am

Hobbit is very happy today - everyone that sent me presents put pressies for the pup in as well - so suddenly she is surrounded by rawhide!

2:59 am

ooooooo good point amanda!

2:59 am

What nice friends you have!

2:59 am

everyone loves Hobbit lol - she gets more presents than me usually!

3:02 am

she's the sort of dog where people who don't like dogs end up saying "well I don't like dogs, but she's lovely ..." I suspect Spangle might be the same!

Happy birthday Atlante!

3:02 am

ty matty! *hands round what's left of the chocolate cake after sprite dived into it* ;)

3:03 am

Yes, she does have a winning way with her.

3:03 am

think its a spaniel thing. big brown eyes ...

3:04 am

And the way they sit up close to you!

3:04 am

... how can one resist!!

3:05 am

and the way they are just soppy as anything and love everyone!

3:06 am

Why isn't a person who is eclectic and eclect? Is there even a noun form of it?

3:07 am

eclecticism is the noun.

3:07 am

refresh for spaniel cuteness!

3:09 am

I used to think Spangle had a long tongue, but I think she's been beaten!

3:09 am

So it is, Haz - so an eclectic is eclectic and suffers from (or enjoys, depending on how you look at it) eclecticism... eclectically?

3:09 am

Happy Birthday Atlante

3:11 am

I presume so, amandacath. The dictionary also gives the noun as 'eclectic person'. It's a great word, but sadly not in the grid.

3:12 am

Oh, bother dictionaries! I hereby declare "eclect" to be a word!

3:13 am

Amazed to see that Enable is allowing both US & Brit sp of the word meanding "in the middle of".

3:14 am

Thanks mitch - had overlooked that one (or those two, rather)

3:14 am

Double points - we're not complaining!

3:15 am

LOL

3:15 am

off for now bbl have a good day everyone:)

3:15 am

Bye jean, have a good day.

3:16 am

bye Jean

3:19 am

Hi All :)

3:19 am

Good morning/evening Dianne

3:19 am

Hi Dianne

3:20 am

Afternoon Dianne.

3:20 am

hello Dianne

3:21 am

It's a hot, muggy late afternoon here. Good to be in with the aircon going.

3:21 am

Hi Dianne

3:21 am

Hi Dianne

3:21 am

Haz - have you been working on those stories?

3:22 am

I'm afraid I haven't - thanks for reminding me!

3:22 am

Hi Preethi & Cat

3:24 am

another good combo - The french for a particular style of hat or something you put over your plants to protect them + pl.

3:25 am

Those type of hats always remind me of the TV series 'The House of Elliot' - the clothes were gorgeous.

3:25 am

I am still working my way through the myriad of c's - how can there be so many!

3:26 am

Did anyone get all the en words yet? I am having a devil of a time with those.

3:26 am

How 'bout a "dirty old man" who "gags" while "drawing"?

3:27 am

I remember that series Haz, it was very evocative of the time. I am missing 1 Dianne.

3:28 am

FMitch You probably have the co4/5 meaning young horse and cl4/5 meaning stupid person. Our local paper once misprinted a football team The Carniny Co**s as the Carniny Cl**s. Didn't have quite the same ring.

3:29 am

I do, that must have caused a few red faces, funny!

3:30 am

Dianne - do you know which ones you are missing?

3:30 am

FMitch - en7's - I have the "back your candidate" one and the main courses one but I can't see the other two. Got any clues?

3:32 am

there are 2 en's related to each other, en plus ca4/5

3:33 am

1st en6 - make pas tense for 7/36

3:33 am

found the other en7 - put something in an envelope

3:33 am

Cat, have you got the en6/27 by any chance?

3:34 am

en6/27 is to put someone into slavery

3:34 am

not yet, have en6/21 and en6/18

3:34 am

Ooh thanks Haz

3:34 am

en6/27 - enslave in a real only fashion way.

3:35 am

You're welcome!

3:38 am

Thanks for the help with the en's. I have all the C words if anyone needs some help.

3:40 am

Just discovered that Wayne's fiancee Coleen is not acceptable in the grid. Good enough for Vogue, but not for here.

3:41 am

Just shows that babble has a little more class then LOL

3:42 am

I wonder if the footballers' wives and girlfriends are buying more cases to bring back all their new clothes?

3:44 am

isn't "coleen" an irish girl, like lass is a scottish one? or is that with double-L?

3:44 am

or as the press are calling them now - wags. The way they are spending probably easier to book a container and do a bulk shipment. Oh my acid tongue this morning - apologies.

3:45 am

The Irish colleen is spelt with two l's. Miss McLaughlin's parents have a variation of their own.

3:47 am

Germany - fashion capital of the world.... what on earth are they buying here, dirndls? Lederhosen?

3:47 am

The way the team are playing they probably realise they're not going to be in Germany for long, so they're making the most of the shopping opportunities!

3:49 am

Oh you've jinxed the match now Haz!

3:50 am

Looks like I'm stuck - not seeing anything more. Anybody have the 9?

3:50 am

Don't tell anybody or I'll have the wrath of England upon me!

3:51 am

Time for a break - am not seeing any words and must get out and back before all the Royal Ascot race traffic decends.

3:52 am

You're not attending yourself?

3:54 am

No but have been many times in the past, great fun for people watching. Must say the new stands are stunning and it has been interesting watching the site rebuild.

3:54 am

Is the weather going to be kind? It's kind of grey here.

3:55 am

It was hazy 1st thing but the sun is out and they are forecasting a good day, fingers crossed it holds for the week.

3:56 am

Dont know hown many punters they are expecting but the new stands hold 80,000 I think

3:56 am

I hope so - it always looks so good when the sun shines. Anyway, have a good day. I'm taking a break as well and maybe see you later on.

3:56 am

Byeeee!!

3:58 am

Bye FM :)

4:03 am

in8/55 and in9/72 - build off in5/16

4:05 am

good clue Haz--did you see the an8 that has a similar ending and means towards the front?

4:06 am

Thanks - got it now!

4:07 am

I'm off now and will be back later to finish. Have a good day everyone.

4:08 am

bye Haz :)

4:09 am

bye Haz, have a great day

4:12 am

anybody know what the ee5/10 is - I'm betting it's a stupid-head word!

4:13 am

verrrry strange or wierd

4:13 am

no, it means scary

4:13 am

tier

4:14 am

Oh, silly me - didn't see that other ee, was trying to make the word from the bottom right corner

Is there a C missing from Lickety's list? I have 16 CA's, 13 CE's, 8 CH's, 4 CL's, 5 CO's, and 2 CR's and the Tile Stats still say that I'm missing another C from the bottom right corner - but it's not on Lickety's list

5:09 am

carrie--i see select....

5:10 am

i've double checked every word and I have all of the C's that Lickety lists in my Word list - so where is the missing one?

5:11 am

jmann--sorry, can't help you, still randomly getting words...

JM, you have all the c's? refresh babble page and let me know what happens

5:11 am

there's 8 ch words?!? I only have 3!

5:14 am

ah - thanks MrP - that worked - so what I listed below was the correct count for C words

5:15 am

hi mrpresident are there any other babble type websites around can you tell me

5:16 am

5:17 am

ph thanks mr p

6:43 am

TY!

7:10 am

211

7:10 am

lots of plurals

7:10 am

oH my - I have a long way to go1

7:11 am

anyone have a clue for the EC 6/24?

7:11 am

i've only found 5

7:11 am

i've never been so frustrated over a 4 letter word

7:11 am

four letter words come easily to some of us ;)

7:12 am

LOL Krista - but most of those are unpublishable.

7:12 am

ec6/24 - e & part of the face + a vowel

7:12 am

that's about the best i can think up for it lol

7:13 am

or e & ch4/6 & a vowel

7:13 am

oh, I don't know - I've been surprised at some of them Babble allowed! There was a really naughty one the other day, starting with t!

Ha - yeah , and that's the one my 15 year old daughter found

7:13 am

good one Papa - and the def is the pl for a type of sea urchin, or a part of a doric column. Yes Krista I was surprised by that one too.

7:14 am

I'm new....what do the tile stats mean?

7:14 am

that word was yesterday and it surprised me very much

7:14 am

ah, the Enable dictionary again. You can have the c-word, but not the w word, whch often pops up. (no pun intended)

7:15 am

thanks Papa - got it - I tried the other two vowels around there and nothing worked!

7:15 am

LOL Dachef

7:16 am

LOL! That figures, doesn't it (about your daughter). Glad I'm not the only one...I always try the "bad" ones and was shocked that one was actually counted.

7:16 am

Pfft! Good pun, intended or not.

7:16 am

chiley - the tile stats are how many words start with those letters in those positions - so for example, the E in the top left corner has no words that start there, same with the one in the right corner - but the N next to it has 7 words that start there

7:17 am

Chiley, they tell you how many words start with each letter. Like if it says: T 4/16 then it means that there are 16 words starting with that letter and you have 4 of them

7:17 am

Chiley, just to l,et you know unless you become a pro user the tile stats dissapear after 14 days.

7:19 am

clue for ca and ch 7/36?

7:20 am

ch7/36 - singular of type of serial or a statement of greeting/leaving

7:20 am

ca7 - when approaching Babble, always adopt a ca* ** attitude. Build from that!

7:21 am

CA 7/36 is the plural of the CA 6/24 above it = means honesty (or the writers of musicals, but spelled differently - CA**** and Ebb)

Also the last song on Tull's Broadsword and the Beast album

7:21 am

great clue, jmann

7:22 am

thanks annie

7:23 am

man, i'm tired . . . that should be "cereal" in my clue

7:23 am

lol

7:23 am

also, the CH 7/36 is the singular form of a type of cereal

7:23 am

hey annie wht up

7:24 am

how are you, peanut?

7:24 am

good how many words did u find

7:25 am

just started, a measly 39

7:25 am

I'm having way too much trouble with the n's

7:26 am

same here krista

I can't find any of the Ns, oddly enough.

7:27 am

i've got two, from the n on top, but that's it

7:27 am

starting with the top N, a female relative and plural

7:27 am

i have all the Ns if anyone needs clued

7:27 am

Thanks Jamnn, Dachef, PapaGLP

7:27 am

How about the ni 5 & 6 - my sisters daughter + pl

Clue away!

7:28 am

ooh - good clues, ta!

Ta for that!

7:28 am

na5/12 - n & a measure of land area

7:29 am

hmmm.....

7:29 am

na5 - mother-of-pearl, ne4 - a born se4 (lowly servant type), no4 & 5 - nobbly thing/s, no4 - 'a no*'s as good as a wink to a blind horse', no4 - French for black.

7:29 am

French for black n4 - crops up quite regularly.

7:29 am

the measure of land area is also in the puzzle

7:29 am

as a4/5

7:30 am

got that one -always find it weird what foreign words are allowed/aren't allowed..frustrating when I find a good one

Thanks for that - most of those I SHOULD have found if I weren't such a moron at times, but some (like the ne) I'd only have found by monkey typing.

7:31 am

the land one has me stumped...

7:31 am

any clues on the LE 5/14 or LE 7/36?

na + ac4 - it means mother of peral

Pearl, that should say

Le5/14 - a dirty old man.

Le 7/36 - lots of dirty old men.

7:32 am

got it now! ta!

7:33 am

awesome clues. Thanks guys

7:34 am

off to work...the bosses are away, I will Babble all day

7:34 am

ok, I saw that clue earlier, but I just couldn't see how to get it - thanks matty

7:34 am

See you Krista.

7:35 am

Catch you later! Thanks for the clues, all.

7:35 am

bye krista

7:36 am

Any clue for EN 7:32 please?

Which one, Sue?

7:37 am

there are two of them

There's the one that means to surround, for example, and the one that means to support

7:37 am

After EN 7:36

7:37 am

en a check

7:37 am

en a yard

7:37 am

when you mail off your credit card payment, you EN***** a check

7:38 am

Thank you!

7:38 am

yw

Sue, can you clue the en 7/36?

7:39 am

matty - its the past tense of EN 6/21

7:39 am

en7/36 - past tense of en6/21 which means to put inside of something

I have one 6/21, which I don't know the meaning of...

7:40 am

there are three en6/21s

7:40 am

this is the past tense of the first one

7:40 am

EN 6/21 - ends with what you put all of your clothes in when going on a trip - a suit****

Ah. I only have one.

7:40 am

then take that ending and make it past tense

Now I have two (and the associated 7)

7:41 am

that's all the EN 6/21's

7:42 am

did anyone get the ET 6/18?

Isn't there three, didn't you say? I have the one you just clued (to put something inside something), I have the one I don't know the meaning of...what's the other?

7:42 am

Hi all

7:43 am

hi tiny

7:43 am

hi tiny

7:43 am

there are three matty . . . i'll try to clue both of the other two for you

7:44 am

correct, i wasn't looking carefully - sorry

I am missing one en76/21 in that ca4

7:44 am

et 6/18=forever poetically

7:45 am

en + what you do to a beverage and remove one consonant

7:45 am

these are terrible clues but the definitions didn't help me much

7:46 am

i don't remember the clues that got them for me

7:46 am

morniing, all

7:46 am

thanks kate

I've got the en(what you do to a beverage)

7:46 am

morning, angel

7:46 am

yw

7:47 am

the other is en6/21 - the novel, ****** game

7:47 am

changes have beeen made to the Resource pages, FYI

7:47 am

novel is by Orson Scott Card

7:47 am

papa, can i have another clue for the novel ---en

7:47 am

so, alphabetically, there is EN 6/21 and it's past tense 7/36 - which we just discussed

7:48 am

then en6/21 - novel, ****** game by Orson Scott Card

7:48 am

then the beverage one

7:48 am

dont know that novel, papa.....sorry

7:49 am

hmm, okk, en6/21 - add an s to en5/12

7:49 am

i don't know if it's a plural or not

7:50 am

then there is an EN 5/12 and it's plural EN 6/21 = try thinking of the finishing line of a race is the *** of it + to make a mistake is to *** (minus the last double letter)

7:50 am

en6 - people who finish

7:50 am

yeah, i guess that would be a better clue lol . . .

OK, I feel stupid!

I know the novel!

7:51 am

got it, thanks, Jmann

7:51 am

then, there is the EN 6/21 = this is the *** + what you put on your finger minus the last letter

7:51 am

those should be the three EN 6/21's

7:51 am

yw annie

That's all of them - thanks!

7:52 am

have that one also, thanks to you

7:53 am

then, to further confuse everyone, there is a EN 6/27 = EN + a Russian slave in Tsarist times (or another spelling of what the Beach Boys sang about - ****ing in the ocean) and then an EN 6/18 = what you eat for dinner at a restaurant and then it's plural

7:56 am

i have 10 en's. that should be all of them, i hope

7:57 am

sorry annie, but there are 13

7:57 am

13 x en in total Annie

7:57 am

8:32 am

Newbie here....how do I read your post? what does ed6/27 mean?

8:33 am

thanx haz an annie :)

8:33 am

means a word that's 6 letters long that's worth 27 points that begins with "ed"

8:33 am

Afternoon Haz chiley - have a look at Anglesongs link under Friends of Babble - tells you everything you need to know

8:33 am

en6/27 means a word of six letters which yields 27 points. A good starting point is to read Angelsong's resource page (under Friends of Babble at the bottom of the page) And welcome!

8:33 am

thanks

8:34 am

Good afternoon FMItch - I'm getting a few more words before going to get those injections! I was watching Ascot - it looks wonderful.

8:35 am

ooer more injections! YEs it is quite something. When I went out this morning it wasn't too bad but I took a wrong turn and ended up taking 1/2 hr to do 2 miles but it's great to see the pagent of it all.

8:36 am

They make a lot of the roads one way in the morning and reverse them in the evening so next time I can get out easliy is going to be tomorrow morning :)

8:37 am

I'm not that interested in the racing, to be honest, but the clothes, the racecourse buildings and Clare Baldings voice keep me watching.

8:37 am

morning all. if "antler" is a word, why isn't "antle"? :P

8:37 am

And I forgot to put an apostrophe in Balding's.....

8:38 am

Same here, even when I used to go to Ladies Day it was for the experience and the people watching.

8:39 am

good afternoon everybody:)

8:39 am

We were speaking this morning about the WAGs in Germany - a group of them spent £57,000 in the space of an hour yesterday!

8:40 am

Good afternoon jean, back for your afternoon dose of words?

8:41 am

I wouldn't mind so much, but half of them look as though they are wearing belts for skirts. You don't get a lot of material for all that money!

8:41 am

8:42 am

the one thing money can't buy in clothing is taste, Haz

8:42 am

That's so true!

8:50 am

I think Jordan and Peter Andre's wedding is a perfect example of what we mean....

8:51 am

is it just me, or are these en words really tough?

8:51 am

8:53 am

8:57 am

kaurie - there are 5 i's and they all begin the same.

8:57 am

infer

8:57 am

in5/16 is to surmise. The larger 8 and 9 words build off it, but are not related in meaning.

8:58 am

oops wrong box

8:58 am

had a bad feeling it was sitting right in front of me! thanks!

8:59 am

9:12 am

9:12 am

they used to have fireworks for everyone. now it doesn't even say you're done if you're not pro :(

9:13 am

i keep seeing cheese in the corner

9:13 am

Stephie - We will give you fieworks if you say when you're done.

9:13 am

kaurie - that cheese is a trap. LOL.

9:13 am

normally I don't get done!!

9:14 am

'fieworks??' I meant fireworks.

9:14 am

recollect is one of my phatoms

and we are like rats god knows - we are hooked on babble as surely as lab rats! LOL!

also oracle

9:14 am

good afternoon (?) Jacula! hi All!

9:14 am

be back this afternoon, bye all

9:14 am

I got halfway last night, and busy day today. Bye Annie!

9:14 am

hi stidmama, morning here

9:15 am

Anyone need any clues before I attempt to continue cutting the hedge in a strong breeze?

9:15 am

jac- you could be right-maybe that distracting cheese was keeping me from seeing the i's

9:15 am

Be back later!

9:15 am

hi Ornith morning here too -- later Haz!

9:15 am

Bye Haz

9:15 am

'Bye Hax & Annie. Hi Stidmama.

9:15 am

Haz NOT Hax! I have sausage fingers today!

9:16 am

LOL, just looked at your icon Jacula! Ack!

9:16 am

hi Temple Owl! Is it your birthday?

9:16 am

Hi stid and good morning!

9:16 am

pabtrek - erm, can't do that...

9:16 am

pabtrek - just means you are a true babble adict.

9:17 am

she COULD tell you that pabtrek, but that would mean admitting she is also...

9:17 am

i was afraid of that FMitch

9:17 am

now ME, for example, I play only because I enjoy it. I could stop any time. REALLY!

no it's atalante's!

9:17 am

I was reading the Babble Store thread in BabAnon yesterday. Very funny and very inventive!:D

9:18 am

same here sidmama, I can stop any time.

9:18 am

oh -- Happy Birthday Atalante!

9:18 am

keep telling yourself that stidmama :D

9:18 am

aw, nads isn't a word?

9:18 am

right..... FMitch :-)

9:18 am

Morning...

9:18 am

happy bday atalante

9:19 am

actually, the Nads were the sports team at the art school right next to my college.

hello cat

9:19 am

hi

9:19 am

specifically because they would then shout/put up signs: go nads!

9:19 am

hello cat

9:19 am

hello TO

9:19 am

I can stop anytime... not my fault my doctor looked at me strangely when, on leaving his surgery, I pointed to the eye chart and said, 'That says chocs'.;/

9:19 am

ROFL Jacs

9:19 am

hi peanut and jean

ornith: add that one to the list of words enable doesn't recognize

9:20 am

BTW -- I don't think you Union Jack folks were on yesterday when I made a total JackA** of myself... I didn't realize that movieman and Punster's flags were the English flag... I got all confused. then I eddacated myself about the flags of Great Britain and finally know which is which!

9:20 am

lol jacs

9:20 am

hello all. anyone clued the 8s or 9 recently?

9:21 am

argh! the an8 is driving me nutz!

9:21 am

I did see that bit in the log stidmama - we all live and learn.

9:21 am

an 8 is opposite of "outside" word used for buildings...

9:22 am

cat2: same ending as the in8; means front

9:22 am

Stid - so you now recognise the union flag, the flag of St. George, the flag of St. Andrew, the Welsh dragon, and the flag of St. Patrick. Good!

9:23 am

Yep. AT least I hope I do! AND I know that the Union Jack is NOT symmetrical... because of some heraldry rule about predecence.

9:23 am

or did I mean preCedence?

9:23 am

wow, that's better than me. I know St. George, but that's it.

9:23 am

Impressed - you have been doing yr homework.

9:24 am

okay... more coffee before working on those clues...tx stidmama and ornith

9:24 am

not good that I am already transposing letters this early in the morning! LOL

9:25 am

ok, everyone....opinion time: I've brought the Babble Birthdays Calendar "onboard" the resource pages site via a javascript. Go see what you think, and tell me if you like it enough for me to keep it and add the icon calendar in the same manner. There is still a link to the original calendar, also. Which do you prefer?

9:25 am

All chat and no searching still leaves me with 29 words to find, *dives back into the grid* :)

9:25 am

So I have a question FMitch/Jacula... do people fly the country flags as well as the Union Jack? In the U.S. many people fly their state flags as well as the U.S. flag.

9:26 am

just a sec Angelsong! brb

9:26 am

Stidmama - The Union Flag is called the Union Jack only when flown on board a ship.

9:26 am

alright, caught up with the chatlog now. time to look at something besides those Es

9:26 am

perhaps you should go eat a bowl of honey nut c 7/36

9:26 am

Stid - Yes, there are many St. George's flags being flown at present.

9:27 am

stidmama, I definately saw the St. George flag all over London when I was there. But that was about this time of year.

9:27 am

fier

9:27 am

You see a lot of the St Andrew's cross in Scotland - rarely the Union flag ;)

9:27 am

yo

9:27 am

Opps - sorry got caught monkey typing :-)

9:27 am

right. sorry -- I tend to use Navy terms (flags are at half mast for me, even on land...)

dynadan: LOL! that is a wrod but gonads isn't ?

9:28 am

Can't move for the English flag here at the moment :-) There is a joke going around about telling how bad a driver the person is by the number of flags on the car.

9:29 am

Angelsong -- I like the one that comes up in your pages instead of popping up a new window. I think it's "neat" and orderly. And there is little enough of that in my life! :-)

9:29 am

temple owl, I think they intend the ch7 as the british greeting

9:29 am

movieman said it was in honor of the world cup because England is competing.

9:29 am

and I dunno if it takes gonads, it just doesn't take "nads".

9:30 am

Stid - Here's another titbit you might want to know... Wales, rightly or wrongly, is represented by the English flag on the Union Flag. You may have noticed the dragon is not on there. This is because the Union Flag was made in 1606 and Wales was officially joined with England by Henry VIII's Act of Union in 1536.

9:30 am

I knew my history/geography lessons would come in handy one day! LOL.

9:30 am

Ornith - do you know that word is a slang word for male bits?

9:31 am

oh yes, fmitch

9:31 am

: ) just checking.

9:31 am

that sports team from the art school I mentioned? their mascot WAS, uh, male bits. it was named Scrotie.

9:32 am

Thanks Jacula, that is what I had read -- too bad, because of them all, that is the one that is most interesting to look at. IMHO...

9:32 am

What a laugh!!!!

9:32 am

brb

9:32 am

well, their team was going to be a joke anyway.... :P

9:35 am

anyone know the last fe4/7?

9:36 am

jo_jo: worry, or the little metal bits under the strings of a guitar

9:36 am

oh, sorry, misread that as fr4/7. whoops

9:36 am

the last fe4/7 is a feast or a party

jo_jo: what we are having for ata's birthday - a party of sorts

9:38 am

okay -- I have 99 words in the grid to go... 99 words in the grid.... *fades out, humming*

9:38 am

Time I got hedge-cutting. Happy Babbling, folks!

9:38 am

cake! balloons! etc!

9:38 am

stidmama, thanks for your input on the birthdays calendar. any other opinions?

bye jacs!

9:39 am

*passes out noise makers and streamers to folks, hands cake cutter to Atalante*

9:40 am

I'll have a look a bit later Angel and let you nkow.

9:40 am

9:41 am

9:42 am

9:43 am

woot! what flavour cake would people like?

9:43 am

9:43 am

9:44 am

mmm lemon please, or strawberry. :-)

9:44 am

golden with chocolate icing please!

9:44 am

lol chocolate plz

9:44 am

lemon curd

9:44 am

mickie, in9 is plural of in8, lesser

9:45 am

how did i miss that!!!!!lol

9:45 am

thanx

9:45 am

I vote for lemon curd too! and chocolate - but not at the same time!

9:46 am

lol atalante

9:46 am

and angel cake cos its pretty

9:46 am

I have an8 and in8. What's the other 8, please?

9:46 am

Y'all are making my sweet teeth pulse and drool. I may have to run make that lemon curd before I continue....

9:47 am

there's an le8/45, no clue what it is

9:47 am

mmmmmmmmm I *love* lemon curd

9:48 am

le8/45 is plural of le7/32, where you speak from

9:48 am

ack, I hate guessing which re+verb words the dictionary will take. won't take re+cl5 or re+sa4, even though I'm sure I've used those words in real life

9:48 am

thanks, Sam!

you're so right, Ornith

9:49 am

thanks Sam

9:50 am

hi everyone

9:51 am

hi peanut

9:51 am

babble sometimes rejects words that are in the dictionary it allegedly uses, and accepts others that are not. go figger.

9:52 am

if you can have re6/24, why can't you have re8 - someone who re6/24s? silly enable

9:53 am

atalante - guess that one got deleted! ;->

9:53 am

what's this re6/24, atalante? I'm still missing that one

9:53 am

oh, thanks sam

9:54 am

hmmmm how to clue - colour + perform on stage

ata: mean to edit

9:55 am

sam's comment gave it to me :)

9:55 am

hi mickie

9:55 am

ah ty TO - I only know how its used in my favourite sci-fi / fantasy series ....!

is there another meaning?

9:56 am

atalante, that's how it's usually used. edited... with a big black gummint-conspiracy marker.

9:57 am

Julian May uses it as a type of healing power - but that's not real world ;)

9:57 am

re6/30?

9:57 am

y'know, that sounds oddly familiar, atalante, what book is that in?

9:58 am

the Galactic Milieu trilogy - Jack the Bodiless, Diamon Mask adn Magnificat. And Surveillance / Metaconcert / Intervention depending on what country you're in!

9:58 am

Hi everyone. I am new here and was just wondering - how much time do each of you spend finding the words?

9:59 am

I think I must have read those at some point, atalante, that sounds REALLY familiar.

9:59 am

wonderful wonderful wonderful wonderful books!

9:59 am

judy, a couple hours - how many depends on how many words. and that's using all the hints I can get my hands on

10:00 am

Welcome, Judy. A short grid might take an hour. A longer grid might take 2 and sometimes 3. But I think people are on and off often for chatting.

10:00 am

I work from home and miss the chat of an office so the log is the equivalent for me.

10:00 am

but people often just pop in and out occasionally during the day and work that way

10:00 am

Judy, it gets faster with practice!

10:01 am

morning, everyone

10:01 am

how's this grid seem so far?

10:02 am

long, ping

hi ping: it's a fun challenge

10:02 am

hmmmmm, they should save the long ones for the weekends!

10:02 am

hi temple owl

angel: did u get your clue?

10:03 am

nott yet, TO :)

10:04 am

angel, i'm hoping that i will ge t faster - i'm not sure that it's happening yet though!

i don't have it yet... : (

10:04 am

thanks for the answers. I come and go throughout the day. I am a stay at home grandmother sometimes grandchild sitter. So I come and go. Haven't finished one puzzle yet - come back and oops ... it's the next puzzle. hehehe

10:05 am

same here judy lol

10:05 am

it does get faster - helps when you learn to use the points to find them, and also just some of the weird words that come up a lot

10:05 am

Judy - the one main reason we all keep coming back is that the grid is fun/challenging and the virtual babble community is great.

10:06 am

hi judy, it was at least a month before i ever finished one - the trick is to use the "cheat" sheets on the pages linked below!

10:06 am

judy, there's lots of hekp on the resource pages

10:06 am

I would like to get to know some of you. I find it fun - sometimes I come back and can't believe I see a word I didn't see previously

10:07 am

hmm. if beseech is a word, why isn't seech? stupid English!

10:07 am

lol Ornith

10:07 am

I taught English in junior high for about 5 years and I agree, Ornith, it is a strange language.

10:08 am

does anyone know how many words are on the puzzle today?

there are so many phantoms today, they are distracting!

10:08 am

211 words total

10:08 am

I think I once heard it said that English doesn't borrow words from other languages, it sneaks up on them in back alleys, beats them up, and goes through their pockets

10:08 am

Hi Judy, and welcome from another stay at home grandmother retired teacher.

10:08 am

211 denbrig

10:08 am

thanks for the info

10:08 am

re6/30 - type of tuna, change the yellow to another colour

10:08 am

I agree, Temple Owl

10:09 am

funny one, ornith

10:09 am

munner, I am a teacher too!

10:09 am

Thanks, Atalante.

10:09 am

make that 210 + the one at the end of your sentence denbrig LOL

10:10 am

Ornith, have you heard of or read the books, Eats, Shoots & Leaves?

10:10 am

i'm a former teacher!

10:10 am

I'm really stuck on that re6/30

10:10 am

Stephie, hope you're enjoying a break

10:10 am

angel, did you see that clue?

10:10 am

oh ok thanks

10:10 am

heard of, judy, not read

judy: someone just mention ed that in here the other day!

10:10 am

Yes, but my own children are driving me crazy!!

10:10 am

Just goest to show how punctuation can totally change the meaning of what you are saying.

10:11 am

I had a student one time that loved to put an e on the end of every word in his spelling test.

is that you in the picture, judy?

10:11 am

Yes, that's me

10:11 am

a few hundred years too late for that kid, judy

10:12 am

you have that right, Ornith.

10:12 am

I told him that if he was given a bag of e's at the beginning of the school year he would have used them all up by now. He would have spelled more words correctly if he just dropped off the e.

10:13 am

got it now, angel?

i love the apostrphes on plurals trend...

10:14 am

oh, you guys will probably appreciate this: http://houseoffame.blogspot.com/ - Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog

10:14 am

how about there, their and they're

10:15 am

Hi, munner. How are you feeling? I was on chat recently when you were speaking about your treatment.

you do realize that grammar is a lost art...or more precisely, it is changing by popular usage

10:16 am

I still can't stand the "If I were..." that everyone is using.

10:16 am

and temple owl, this one is for you: http://www.angryflower.com/bobsqu.gif

10:16 am

That is great Ornith esp as I spotted one of the fave babblet words on the home page "Ywis"!

ty ornith...judy i use that - ack!

10:17 am

this is a brilliant page for random ywis-y babble words: http://phrontistery.info/archaic.html

ata: i must bookmark that one

10:18 am

no you don! do you really? It makes my skin crawl like fingernails on the old chalkboard

ok - what's the correct way?

10:19 am

I is singular, so it should I am or was

10:19 am

were goes with plural... we were, you were, they were

10:19 am

But, Judy.. what about the subjunctive case? Hello all..

if i was you sounds so wrong....

10:20 am

I taught ESOL and can't remember how many times I had to explain to my students that English was the craziest language of all.

10:20 am

Judy, I always heard "were" as correct there, for subjunctive. and in any case, google tells me "if I were" is now more common, slightly.

hi alo! hi munner - hope you are feeling well today!

10:21 am

(which is actually considered valid linguistic evidence for stuff, believe it or not)

10:21 am

true, it is now the more common usage -

10:21 am

Hi, Temple Owl. Today is the beginning of my week off drugs so I should have some good days. How are you?

10:22 am

got less the 50 left to get now

i am fine - a welcome break for you munner! what is your icon?

10:22 am

howdy, TO... can only pop in for a bit of babbling, another "hit and run" day. (-: Yes, I say "if I were" ..

10:22 am

The thing that drives me nuts is people using "r" and "u" and "b4" and that sort of thing.

judy: are you really sister margaret mary? fess up!

10:22 am

You must love it when the lids get in there then Ornith

10:22 am

*kids not lids?!?!

10:23 am

That'

10:23 am

hehe mitch

10:23 am

That's my graduation yearbook picture.

i must refresh! i see a horse ! LOL!

10:23 am

temple owl: a horse is a horse, of course, course! :P (at least, I'm seeing a little red horse)

10:24 am

My daughter-in-law was here last week and we were going through old pictures so it was easy to find today. She wants to put together some family history pictures.

10:24 am

ac7/32??

10:24 am

wonderful pic, munner!

10:24 am

LOL! That was yesterday's Dalarna horse, a souvenir from Sweden. Perhaps I was a bit horsey... in high school?

10:24 am

hey everyone how many today?

10:24 am

think organic chemistry

10:25 am

c'mon, guys, where are the other yearbook pix?

oh munner! i thought that was swedish...

10:25 am

We don't have the culture of yearbooks in the UK

munner i do not have digital photos or a scanner.

10:26 am

and my yearbooks are all buried somewhere in my closet, several states away

10:26 am

I do mystery shopping so had to invest in a scanner to upload receipts.

10:26 am

not that they're all that long ago anyway

10:26 am

So Ornith, you're saying you could be one of my four "children"?

10:27 am

organic chemistry with ac7?

10:27 am

hi everyone

10:27 am

I was a mystery shopper / diner for Shoneys/Pargos for a few years.

10:27 am

stephie, think the stuff in nail polish remover, then change the n to an s

stephie: think nailpolish remover hi peanut!

10:28 am

Hi, peanut

10:28 am

and munner, yup

10:28 am

Morning all

10:28 am

hi cherry

judy: your picture looks to be circa 1957 or so?

10:28 am

My daughter got me started in the mystery shopping, and it's been fun since I've retired.

10:28 am

hi cherry

10:28 am

hi, cherry

10:28 am

ok, stuck at 179. think I'm going to take a break and see if any show themselves when I come back.

10:29 am

Ah, youth! So Ornith, where do you fit in with my kids who are 37, 32, 30 and 27?

10:29 am

stephie: there ar ac7 polish removers and non ac7 polish removers...

10:31 am

LOL, lianakate. I feel your pain!

10:31 am

10:31 am

10:31 am

Munn..my oldest turned 45 in March!!!! How did this happen?? YUCK

10:31 am

ac4/5 - bane of teens. ac4/5 - measure of land.

10:31 am

oh okay

10:32 am

one is a plot of land and the other is what a teenager has on his/her face

10:32 am

Sure, Cherrypop, although some businesses specifically target 18-40 year olds.

10:32 am

munner, a couple weeks shy of 26. and now bye! :)

10:32 am

silly me now for the oninous 7

10:32 am

I am pleased to say, however..In an IHOP the other day I was admonished that I could NOT use the senior menu ..unless I was AT least 55

10:32 am

ominous

10:32 am

But lianakate, you started very young, am I right? I was an old 24 when my first was born.

10:32 am

hi cj :)

10:33 am

Too late for that age group LOL

10:33 am

hi mickie!

10:33 am

10:33 am

What a great day!!!!

10:33 am

10:52 am

Today's my first day here. I've read Angelsong's page but still have questions. Is there a list of clues somewhere? What's the best place to look for good info?

10:53 am

I use Lickety's Babble Clues at the bottom of the page (under the puzzle).

10:53 am

chiley, if you click the lickety’s babble clues link on the bottom of the page you will get a first and second letter breakdown of all the words. Very helpful.

10:53 am

first se6?

10:54 am

for instance I don't know what it means when someone asks about ce x/x.....where x are numbers

10:54 am

ac 4/5 - word starts with ac, is four letters and worth five points

angel i can't tell you....

10:55 am

oh...thanks...that helps

10:55 am

cr7/40 means the 1st 2 letters are cr, there are 7 letters in total and the points value adds up to 40. That give you an idea of what you are looking for.

10:55 am

ex. se6/21 - se are the first two letters of the word; 6 is how many letters are in the word; and 21 is the point value.

10:55 am

sorry angel, I don't have that one yet!

10:55 am

fmitch clue for the cr7/40 plz

10:56 am

yeah, now that she mentions it... ;)

angel: that was a clue : )

10:58 am

i'm down to my last 2 - re 6/30 and re 6/27 - can anyone clue me?

10:58 am

Clue for the first se6: I'd tell you, but I cant' it's a se6...

10:58 am

re 6/27 - plural of to throw up

10:58 am

re6/27 - what is done to oil or sugar for processing.

is it another one you need, angel?

10:59 am

re6/27 = re + another word for ok

10:59 am

extra hint - start with the c on the right hand side.

10:59 am

disregard my clue, that was for re 7...

11:00 am

no, that was a clue for the first se6, TO :)

11:00 am

another hint for that cr --- where baby Jesus was laid.

11:00 am

I'm having troubles trying to get an icon off of the web. I don't know how. help please!?

11:38 am

It's been a dream of his for a long time and since it is his 50th birthday in September, I encouraged him to indulge himself (and me).

11:39 am

thanks muse!!!!!!!

11:39 am

reese - i go to google images, get a pic, right click on it & save to a folder in my 'c' drive - then in the 'my account' section here, click on edit under the blank icon on the left hand side & choose option #2 - open, upload, refresh

11:41 am

thank you so much Helen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

11:41 am

haz - that is awesome, something to make memories from you will treasure forever ( & also be the envy of friends, neighbors & babbers!)

11:42 am

We're looking forward to it -that's for sure!

11:42 am

you're welcome reese

11:43 am

although reese, and i am talking for stidmama b/c she's not here, i wouldn't put your full name on your profile, just reese's or your first name. safer that way

11:44 am

sigh i have more words that are 6 letters or more than i have 4 letter words .... is there a trick to 4 letter words?

11:44 am

oh yes reese, leslie is right!!! must be cautious, better safe, than sorry :)

11:44 am

besides being smart :)

11:44 am

just let your fingers type any combo you can see, dynadan :)

11:44 am

i was done doing that 3 hours ago hehe

11:44 am

think in a two syllable rhythm, Dynadan. If that makes sense.

11:45 am

now i am just making stuff up

11:45 am

I sometimes use a 'square' of four letters and see how many words I can get from it. It works better on some grids than others.

11:45 am

Sometimes that works Dynadin

11:45 am

i still think nads should count :P

11:46 am

me too

11:46 am

and not counting norse is rough also

11:46 am

hey, if they took the t word yesterday, I agree!

11:46 am

Boy, this game makes me feel stoopid

11:46 am

and how come it won't give me tentacle :P

11:46 am

haz - on this other game i play - tangleword- there is a player there, pat yoda, who has a link where he has lists & lists & lists of all possible combos of 4,5,6 letters in a block - needless to say, he is an awesome scorer

It sounds as if he takes his game very seriously, helen!

even i got that one hehe

12:11 pm

ended

12:11 pm

ty, StephieC!

12:11 pm

yw!

12:12 pm

I still have 4 ce's. They are just giving me fits!!!

12:12 pm

"Freeee woooords - get yer free words over heeeere!" LOL!

12:12 pm

hehe

12:13 pm

Steph - middle of circle spelt 2 ways

12:13 pm

if you're giving out free words, how about some that I don't already have?! :)

12:13 pm

Lincoln coin plus vowel, plural

12:13 pm

another word for zits

12:14 pm

well how about the fr4/7 that you just used LOL

12:14 pm

dynadan, is that a clue for ce words?

12:15 pm

no

12:15 pm

thanks mymuse! Now I only have two left!

12:15 pm

think it's a clue for the ac4/5

12:16 pm

any clues for the te 6/21 that's not a male falcon?

12:17 pm

heres one though .... look at poor pete he puts a c where all the p's should be .... so he spells his name ...

12:18 pm

and what kind of word is that anyway??

12:18 pm

I've got that one Dy!

12:18 pm

I need a ce6/21 and ce4/5

12:18 pm

whats the definition then smarty pants? :)

12:18 pm

dc--do you have the mid-morning te and its plural?

12:18 pm

A ce4/5, as surely everyone knows, is a company of badgers.

12:19 pm

ce4/5 rhymes with P***r, Paul and Mary

12:19 pm

te 6 - think of a word for "not wordy, short answer, etc", then change the "s" in that word, and make it plural.

12:19 pm

middle of circle spelled differently, reverse last 2 letters

12:19 pm

people what know that read too many dictionaries or play too much babble

12:20 pm

Undoubtedly, Dynadan! :)

12:20 pm

or like badgers... :)

12:20 pm

... or they just click on the ? next to the word on their list

12:20 pm

dy, hit the question mark next to the word and it will give you the definition

12:20 pm

d'oh, ty Bash, i didn't look in that direction when i did the singular, and so missed the plural

12:20 pm

ce 6/21 that i thought was hard .... what mexcians may can a penny

12:21 pm

ahh thanks for the info

12:21 pm

yw!

12:21 pm

must go for now...back alter...happy babbling!

12:22 pm

Oh Bash, don't alter -- we love you just the way you are!

12:24 pm

the ce6's that i have are ended, perfumed with in__, the vessel that burns the in___, and middle of circle spelled two different ways. What is the other one???

12:25 pm

Spanish pennies?

12:25 pm

what mexicans might call a penny plural

12:25 pm

could I get some help with the ec words please?

12:25 pm

penny + vowel + curved cons

12:25 pm

or a body or work by an author since i now know how to push the question mark button

12:26 pm

thanks! I finally got it!

12:26 pm

ec6/24 = e+beard grows here+ vowel

12:26 pm

ec4/6 - looks reminiscent of a resounding word, but with a different vowel ending, pluralise for the ec5/14

12:26 pm

if you know Spanish, it's the ending for milk minus l

12:28 pm

are there 13 ce words?

12:28 pm

thanks. I didn't have the beard grows here word, either!

12:28 pm

I'm sure I'm missing the obvious, but help with the ac 7/32?

12:28 pm

There are 13 ce words.

12:29 pm

according to Lickety there is Steph

12:29 pm

its not easy .... think nail polish remover

12:29 pm

think fingernail polish remover but change the n to the curvy letter! (ac7)

12:29 pm

ac7/32 - means sour, starts like chemical for nail poslish remover, ends like the end of the flower symbolizing love

12:29 pm

ac7/32 - high scoring card followed by anagram of foot digits.

12:29 pm

then I am finally finished with ce's!!!!!

12:31 pm

my nads hurt from sitting in this chair

12:33 pm

thanks guys

12:33 pm

then move!!

12:33 pm

I'm totally not sure what I'm doing

12:34 pm

np now help yourself to a bowl of honey nut ch 7/36

12:34 pm

Are there certain words you have to find?

12:34 pm

and whats with the tile and word stats

12:34 pm

all the words

12:34 pm

every single flipping impossible undefinable one!!!

12:35 pm

i was looking for that one, dyna, thanks

12:35 pm

katican, there are 211 possible words today

12:35 pm

i don't think it should count as a word anyway i just typed it in for fun

12:36 pm

thank you, can you explain the tile and word stats?

12:36 pm

words stats show you how many 4, 5, 6, etc. words there are

12:36 pm

sure, the second number is the # of words that start with that letter, the first number is how many you have. when you're done with a letter it will turn gray

12:36 pm

word stats list how many words of that length there are .... i.e. 3 8 letter words

12:36 pm

same for the word stats

12:37 pm

ooohh.......cool thankx

12:37 pm

I have 31 words.....long way to go

12:37 pm

the way we clue, with ac 4/5 and such, means a word starts with ac, is 4 letters and worth five points

12:38 pm

when someone types ac4/5 .... it means word starting with ac 4 letters long that will add up to 5 points ..... so ac4/5 another word for zits

12:38 pm

jinx

12:38 pm

beat you to it, dyna :)

12:38 pm

ic, i like this game

12:39 pm

i gave a free word with mine HAH!!

12:39 pm

If you click the lickety’s babble clues link on the bottom of the page you will get a first and second letter breakdown of all the words.

12:39 pm

get to around 100 words and it is more addicting and less fun lol

12:39 pm

that's true, the bonus might negate the timing under the buzzer

12:40 pm

a clue please for the second ca 5/14 and ca 6/24

12:40 pm

OMG leslie i didn't know about the lickity thing .... i thought everyone has been frigging psychic

12:40 pm

ca + rapper dr. ***, magzel?

12:40 pm

dyna, that will help you immensely :)

12:41 pm

he6/21??

12:41 pm

ca5/14 like the San Diego ___ but change the first letter and pluralize for the 6

12:41 pm

The second ca5/14 - a nucleus of trained personnel

12:41 pm

cader

12:41 pm

my last one is the first te 6/24 and I just can't find it. any help, please?

12:43 pm

i have a problem with the te6/24 being a word if the abbreviated form of the root word does not count

12:44 pm

not as good quality, shade

12:44 pm

shade it's the inside of house

12:44 pm

you must not be as good as the rest of us shade :P

12:44 pm

oops, forget that

12:44 pm

ohhhhh, if you promise that it is not frozen, I need a fish slap please.......... I am done, thanks for the clue

12:44 pm

Well you will have to get used to it Dynadan as the Enable dictionary has a will of it's own!

12:44 pm

maybe you will get a complex

12:44 pm

congrats joey!

12:44 pm

12:45 pm

12:48 pm

12:48 pm

12:49 pm

phantom word of the day: "entrance"

12:49 pm

12:49 pm

12:49 pm

cl 7/40 should be a plural of the cl 6/27

12:49 pm

12:50 pm

I'm back! Whilst hubby watches football tonight, I plan to spend an evening with Buffy, Angel, Battlestar and Babble

1:13 pm

think of the candy with the weird commercials, but change the m to c and the last one is a different spelling for the middle of a circle

1:14 pm

ca6/21 similar to what you put inside a jackolatern but replace d with a t

1:14 pm

one ce is a container for smelly stuff. Or think about being angry and cut the 'in' off the front.

1:14 pm

it's okay. I am just hanging out for a little bit until I go lie down. Perfect gardening weather, but the shopping this morning wore me out so I will take an early nap.

1:14 pm

another ca6/21 is similar word pronounced with spanish accent

ok:)

1:15 pm

did Lickety update the list?

For some reason on AOL I can't get to lickety's list, and babbler's anon doesn't seem to have today's stats. Can anyone send me the list - I have 99 words left and a wall...and a blank Excel spreadsheet awaiting words.

1:15 pm

ce6 - think of spanish for abraham lincoln coin?

1:15 pm

...actually my last clue might lead you to two ce 6s, a 21 and a 24.

Matty - my problem is that Lickety's list is completed, and I'm going to have to take out the words, so it may take a while.

1:24 pm

I have en7/36 - put in a box like you might carry on a trip 9past tense, en7/32 - shut in (past tense)

for the bottom right e: i ahave one who uses acid on glass - what is the other one please?

1:24 pm

en+ suitca**+ past tense ending; en+"Cl*** the Door!"; en + big, tall tr***- a menu item

1:25 pm

Yes, Ping, that is my high school senior self. I trust your icon is not yours, ha ha!

1:25 pm

Vicuna, that's a gorgeous pic!!

1:25 pm

vic, oh certainly it is - on one of my better days

The correct email to send the list if anyone is feeling generous - it's the email addy that is a real name :D

1:26 pm

Well, there are days now when my kids make me feel like your pic, Ping, but I was pretty carefree in high school. Une, thanks. Us real yearbook people have to stick together!

scamming clues here - lucky me, 14 less to go!

1:27 pm

1:29 pm

Sure enough, firefly! I had to refresh. But my yearbook cover is the most atrocious design ever, with a garish coral-colored credit card on the cover, if you can believe it!

Thanks all! Emails received...

1:30 pm

vic - credit card?

1:30 pm

gotta go - back this evenin

anyone know why lickety's clues can't be accessed?

bye ping

1:30 pm

I still need an en7/32, not the one to en--- a check.

1:30 pm

thanks for noticing Vicuna - our senior year they picked some teal one, when our colors were purple and gold, so...

1:30 pm

Ping, all I can say is, anyone who doesn't know enough to stop after the first set of twins must be utterly mad! (Actually, mine are very good kids, but I certainly don't need any more!)

1:31 pm

Oh, bye, Ping!

1:31 pm

re Miss Lynley, yep she's still with us--born in 1942 . . . has a movie coming out the year

1:31 pm

my NADS are getting squished against my RECTOL ... i think i may be getting a HERNEA

omg peri - i saw recent pics of her when i went looking & now i know what i'll look like when i hit 60+, think i may start looking into plastic surgery! lol (nah, not really that bad, but i don't think she acts anymore, but does have a current fan page!)

5:02 pm

Oh, It's UnGodly Hot- we had to buy a second window air conditioner to supplement our CENTRAL air conditioning, it's so hot and humid...doesn't bode well for hurricanes, I'm afraid....

5:03 pm

jaia, were you hurt by Katrina where you are?

5:03 pm

yeah, my central air's workin' its little butt off!

5:04 pm

hmmm.. global warming? :- (

5:04 pm

Oh, My, YES! Our house is STILL not fixed....ty insurance company for the hold-up- we have tarps on the roof still and a huge hole in one bedroom ceiling, and lost all our front-yard trees...I worked in Biloxi, and it looked like a nuclear blast zone....very sad....

5:05 pm

yep--not that it isn't always hot here in the summer, but our winters have gotten warmer for sure

5:05 pm

5:06 pm

My family lives in Illinois, and says that the winters are never as cold as they once were...if they keep cutting down the rainforest at the rate they are, it's only going to get worse.....Sorry for the preaching, but it's true....

5:06 pm

not preaching -- just stating facts

5:07 pm

I know, jaia, very true-- such greed...

5:07 pm

Yes, Katrina changed my life- the saddest part was losing two of our cats...found them dead...

5:07 pm

oh no, how heartbreaking

5:07 pm

ooohhhh, dear! :(

5:07 pm

Very....

5:07 pm

there should be more "preaching" so that full relief can be given to everyone hurt by the hurricane. it is just awful that things are not back to normal for everyone.

5:08 pm

I'm so sorry, jaia, :(

5:08 pm

I was lucky in that I was not hit by the 28 foot surge....I live fifteen minutes from the ocean, and that accounts for the fact that I still have a house....

5:09 pm

8:06 pm

*** on a Grecian Urn

8:07 pm

8:14 pm

oye and the le 7 and le 8

8:15 pm

scarlet, le7 is what a le5/14 (dirty old man) does

8:15 pm

le 7 is the stand that you use to support reading material when you read to a crowd

8:15 pm

le 7 and 8 -- the thing a professor stands behind an speaks from

8:15 pm

or what nrk said!

8:15 pm

8:17 pm

8:19 pm

8:19 pm

brandyjack, i believe there's a fort le***worth

8:19 pm

brandyjack, it's ALLOW + **EESE DOODLES

8:19 pm

perhaps i can shed some light for you BJ, like the dog going after the stick

8:19 pm

i love seeing so many different ways to clue!

8:19 pm

feather, not really!?!?!

8:20 pm

i *think* so...

8:20 pm

Levinworth I've heard of, but le***worth?

8:20 pm

hmm, gonna check, maybe i was thinking levinworth

8:20 pm

I'd like to visit that place someday, just to see if the men there misbehave

8:20 pm

hi boa!

8:20 pm

*confuzzled*

8:21 pm

Hola :)

8:21 pm

The cross letter changes it. Not used to seeing it spelt in Ye Olde Englishe.

8:21 pm

hi boa, you went pro?

8:21 pm

Yeah, I have my flag. Yes, my pro debut is currently happening. :)

8:22 pm

yay boa!

8:22 pm

wow... pro-ifying in action...

8:22 pm

"Le***worth State Park is home to many sites of interest to students of colonial times." this is what i was thinking of! it's in western NY

8:22 pm

and in fact, it won't take it with the 2 bit ending..... It only wants the 6 letter variant. Wish this thing would be consistent....

8:22 pm

another babbler is born! welcome to the pro lounge boatierra

8:23 pm

aha! good to know feather, tx

8:23 pm

Thank you, thank you :)

8:23 pm

either of the te 5/10

8:23 pm

a 17-mile stretch of grey-green canyon. Vivid green in springtime, radiant red in autumn, this "vale of the three falls" is aptly called The Grand Canyon of the East.A million people visit annually

8:23 pm

scarlet, kids aged 13 - 19

8:24 pm

hee, at least i wasn't totally making it up!

8:24 pm

scarlet, one is a plural

8:24 pm

back to the grid

8:24 pm

perhaps the plural of the te4/4 bird?

8:24 pm

consistent? geez, brandyjack

8:24 pm

arge...got those...

8:24 pm

another te5/10 is the te4/4 bird + a vowel

8:24 pm

my lickety list is messing with me

8:24 pm

i'm a dork

8:24 pm

there are 4 te 5/10

8:25 pm

oooh, a straight line....

8:25 pm

the other te5/10 is te + first 3 letters of a very popular TV show about being stranded on an island

8:25 pm

brandyjack, not sure what you meant about it not taking the 2-bit plural?

8:25 pm

well, i suppose i'll end semi admirably with 42 left to get...perhaps another time. thanks for all your help...it's good to know that people are word geeks like me

8:25 pm

were you not able to make le 7 as plural of le 5?

8:26 pm

you did great scarlet! see you again.

8:27 pm

OK. How about the TE6/21 that doesn't add a consonant to the end of the TE5?

8:27 pm

Franmag's clue was 'scarlet, le7 is what a le5/14 (dirty old man) does', but the 2 bit ending to make the le5 an le7 doesn't work, ven though that word is the olde english variant of the 6 letter without the cross letter.

8:27 pm

minski, both of them add a consonant

8:28 pm

minski, the te 6/21s both are te 6 plus consonant, but go in different directions

8:28 pm

bj, is the two bit ending ES?

8:28 pm

got it. thanks.

8:28 pm

second ch 5/14?

8:29 pm

feather, type of pants

8:29 pm

bottom ofyour face + a vowel

8:29 pm

never thought of that one, but that one does work. I was working on the R ending.

8:29 pm

or same with diff vowel on end

8:29 pm

got it, good thing, i don't get the pants clue!

8:29 pm

feather, sonny and ch** + a consonant

8:29 pm

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

8:29 pm

oh, lol, cause i got a different 5/14 just now

8:29 pm

i got fran's

8:30 pm

i needed the pants one anyway and just got it now thanks to dorens

8:31 pm

whew, glad you got my clue feather, i've been giving the wrong ones all day!!

8:31 pm

i mostly ignored frans, because I caught the podium one and kept tryig to work it in that direction and trying it without the cross..... singleminded cussedness....

8:31 pm

fran, I got that too thanks!

8:31 pm

sure nrk!

se 5/12 clue, plese?

8:32 pm

BJ, my clue does make sense though, an le5/14 le7/36, right?

8:32 pm

TO, a four-door car

8:33 pm

ch5/14 I have is a fragment of flint. Or is that the usable part that has been chipped off.

ty franmag!

8:33 pm

Yes Fran it does. I just fixated on an R ending plus I am not used to seeing the word spelt with a T.

8:34 pm

lol, i just got the co7/32 by thinking of the song in aladdin!

8:34 pm

yes BJ, as you said olde english variant!!

8:34 pm

which song was that feather?

8:34 pm

yw TO!

8:34 pm

which aladdin song?

8:35 pm

but the olde english variant DOES use a T and DOES end in R.....

8:35 pm

prince ali

8:35 pm

8:37 pm

lucky you....it's going in my head now and probably will be all night

8:37 pm

jeffer, the es5/12 sounds like a tie, but e instead of a

8:37 pm

co + actress Garr + vowel

8:37 pm

I know that song backwards and forwards... Grant was "Iago" in the school's production this last winter...

8:37 pm

Now wondering if she should have done the anagram clue, having read the discussion of BabAnon. I give clues differently, according to who I'm clueing and where they hail from. I also clue differently if it's nearing the end of the grid.

9:44 pm

bb in a few

LOL feather!

9:47 pm

9:48 pm

9:48 pm

9:58 pm

Oh blimey! Just thought about how politically correct the world has become... maybe I should not have made that joke to Bambam?

9:59 pm

oh, and i finished about 5 minutes before my goal too

9:59 pm

can this site be a PC-free zone??

9:59 pm

i have 8 left to go! i will never make it!

9:59 pm

9:59 pm

oh, go get bam, jacula! :D

9:59 pm

oops. that was supposed to be 88.

9:59 pm

ha

9:59 pm

of course you will darci... what do you need

9:59 pm

Ah! Just read Bambam's latest post about the tee-shirts. My joke was fine. Thank gawd Australians can still be politically incorrect.

10:00 pm

One left, it's a 6 letter bottom row E, any clues? Thanks :)

10:00 pm

lol, jacula!

10:00 pm

If the whole world could be a pc-free zone, I would be very happy.

10:00 pm

tks...i'm lookin

10:01 pm

in reality, politically correct is another word for a falsehood..... or a perversion of the truth... it has become inappropriate to be honest, which is a shame

10:01 pm

*doesn't get tee shirt joke*

10:01 pm

cat9, do you have the person who et4/6s?

10:01 pm

guess someone forgot to tell me that.....

10:01 pm

10:02 pm

yes I have that one Fran

10:02 pm

oh wait.....maybe i do? lol, does it have to do with women and brazilian?

10:02 pm

oh dear, i did get it, does that mean i'm impure? lol

10:02 pm

pure, nah, just slow! lol

10:02 pm

The king of unpc'ness (if there is such a word, but youy know what I mean anyway) is our Queen's hubby, Prince Philip. He cracks me p!

10:03 pm

night fran, i'm leaving soon

10:04 pm

no there is no australian version, he was saying he'd reveal his australian-ness if she would ...

10:04 pm

I guess you've all heard the story about the woman who was due to have a 'down there' op? She dyed her pubic hair bright green. When she awoke after the op., the surgeon had written on her abdomen, 'SORRY! Had to mow the lawn!'

10:04 pm

bye Fran, thanks again :)

10:05 pm

hahahah Jac i have another one along the same lines, but perhaps a shade rich for this crowd

10:05 pm

WELL DONE, CAT!

10:05 pm

lol, on this note, i'm going to bed...have fun all!

10:05 pm

Thanks Jacula :)

10:05 pm

bye feather!

10:05 pm

in clues? I have the 4 and 5

10:06 pm

damn i have to work back soon

10:06 pm

in6/30, strep throat is an in****ion.

10:07 pm

in6 - someone who sneezes on your may in**** you with their germs. in8/55 + plural 9 - lesser people.

10:08 pm

in4 (last 'in') - short word for information.

10:08 pm

yeah! Thanx Jacula and Cat9x

10:09 pm

i think i've overlooked that blasted volcano in sicily every night for the past 4 nights!

10:09 pm

Ping - I assume you've also found its plural?

10:10 pm

i did, finally! thanks, jac!

10:10 pm

LOL.

10:11 pm

lol, jac!!

10:11 pm

Just checked out your profile, Ping. Are you a stepmom, too?

10:12 pm

well, my partner is the birth mom but i've been around all along - i'm the other mother, hence the blog title

10:13 pm

Oh dear! It's 4.11am here and my truck-driving other half is due to wake up v. soon. He'll be so annoyed with me for being down here on the computer and with a glass of wine in my hand. Any way I can to knock me out so the night sweats don't wake me every 30 mins. I hope I can get him to see that is all it is.

10:13 pm

mt. damn et4/4-- pesky!

10:13 pm

Ah, Ping. I should have realised that. I remember someone telling me that (in real life) some years ago.

10:14 pm

last word...he 6/21- the first one

10:14 pm

I can so relate, jacula!

10:14 pm

There were 2 'other mothers' in that scenario though. Most of the kids, but not all, were screwed up.

10:14 pm

abe, slang for rear end

10:14 pm

jac, our fair nation is behind yours in this (and a number of other) ways!

10:14 pm

abe its an americanism for your behind..... sounds like high knee

10:15 pm

LOL..fireworks!!! what a word to,er, end with ..thanks fran and bambam

10:15 pm

Ping in Aust. its not recognised yet either... think the UK, Holland, Germany among those that do though

10:15 pm

american, bam? I thought yiddish..

10:15 pm

our kids are very young - it may be a while before we see whether they turn out okay or not

10:15 pm

abe, very appropriate ... er... end word!! lol YAY ABE!!!

10:15 pm

well it's only appropriate to "end" with that isn't it Abe!

10:15 pm

congrats abe!

10:16 pm

bambam, canada too, right?

10:16 pm

jinx Fran

10:16 pm

thanks guys. thank you for all the clues

10:16 pm

how many words are there?

10:16 pm

i thought you're supposed to be working bambam!!

10:16 pm

Ping - like all parents everywhere you can only hope for the best. However they turn out, you must just keep on loving them UNCONDITIONALLY.

10:16 pm

211 akaann

10:16 pm

211 words

10:16 pm

jacula - i have the same problem -have you tried black cohosh?

10:16 pm

they'll be fine, ping--I was blessed w/ my "aunts" :)

10:16 pm

The only unconditional love is parental love.

10:16 pm

i hate to babble and run, but hubby needs the computer. may i offer any hints before i go?

10:17 pm

yeah i am a forex trader so when i'm busy it's NUTS but when i'm not it is SO BORING ITS INSANE... hence word games are good to keep you awake

10:17 pm

night abe!!!

10:17 pm

yes

10:17 pm

thanks, rebel - i complained about the italian mountain earlier tonight

10:17 pm

how many words for this puzzle

10:17 pm

please

10:17 pm

211 words akaan

10:17 pm

Helen - re black cohosh - see back in the log. I promise you it won't zap your grid to open the whole chatlog. It opens in a new window.

10:17 pm

211 akaann

10:17 pm

the other unconditional love is the love kids have for their parents (before they grow up!!!!)....

10:18 pm

black cohosh worked for me for about a year & now i'm taking estroven - which took a couple of weeks to kick in but now i am only waking up 2 or 3 times/night

10:18 pm

goodnight all

10:18 pm

thank you franmag

10:18 pm

amen, bambam!

10:18 pm

Ican't believe how late people are still coming into this grid as new.

10:18 pm

i have been here before

10:18 pm

love the thing

10:19 pm

Helen - I tried a later night + some alcohol last night and only woke 3 times, but I did get 3 hours uninterrupted sleep.

10:19 pm

sure, ping! :)

10:19 pm

welcome back then akaann!

10:19 pm

I want my 6-8 hours strraight through though.:-(

10:20 pm

i could sleep hanging upside down, outdoors, in a blizzard if i'm tired enough...... get up for work at 5 daily and just never seem to get enough sleep

10:20 pm

jac, sounds like you have a new baby!

10:20 pm

that et** word should be a given!

10:20 pm

uh jacula, how far back in the chat log?

10:21 pm

jacula?

10:21 pm

you know what happens to me - i turn off the light , think for a few minutes, start to relax and then as soon as i'm really relaxed & ALMOST asleep -BAM

10:22 pm

bambam, sounds like sleep deprivation.

10:22 pm

hey, did anyone put their real yearbook pic in icons today?

10:22 pm

vicuna did nrk.

10:22 pm

FranMag - feels almost the same way, except that my newcomer is hot flushes/flashes in the day and night sweats later.

10:22 pm

I did!

10:22 pm

une did too

10:22 pm

not! :-D

10:22 pm

lol lib!!

10:23 pm

the sweats is not what wakes me up - it's the freezing afterwards!

10:23 pm

jacula - how far back in the log?

10:23 pm

oh, the sweats....

10:23 pm

I've tried alcohol, water, smoking, not smoking, sitting by an open window/door. The one thing I think MAY work is doing the breathing exercises you are taught to do during labour. Lowering the blood pressure, even if it is naturally low, as mine is, might be the thing.

10:23 pm

lol, fran!

10:23 pm

I'l report back.

10:24 pm

um, carol! :D

10:25 pm

be back in a bit, have to start dinner

10:25 pm

I find that beer helps me, jacula...

10:25 pm

I see wassup hiding in the back somewhere

10:26 pm

Helen - re the advice I gave back in the log about opening the whole chatlog - maybe 2 hours ago? However, all I said was that it opens in a new window now and won'taffect the grid part.

10:26 pm

yeah, i'm here. i'm watching fear factor with one eye and babbling with one eye. :)

10:26 pm

*yaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwnnn*.... 46 left...toooo tired..to finish.

10:26 pm

first my doctor put me on a thyroid med - for overactive thyroid - that helped for about a year, then the black cohosh, another year & now the estroven - there's nothign left after this except real hormones & i am not going to do that, so this better run it's course pretty darned soon!

10:26 pm

(if i could)

10:26 pm

sa 5/10?

10:26 pm

ok i will look back 2 hours

10:26 pm

i used DHEA for about a year

10:26 pm

Jac, it doesn't open a new window for me

10:27 pm

if you're not careful they'll stick like that

10:27 pm

Helen - when did yours start? Mine began 2 days after my 49th birthday (April22nd).

10:27 pm

Oh, but if I right click on Archives, then I can open it up in a new window

10:28 pm

Note to Angelsong - you've got a lot of birthdays missing off your new calendar.

10:28 pm

love your icon froelica. hehe

10:28 pm

glad youre not doing hormones helen i did for about 20 yrs and got breast cancer and the doc said oops don't ever take hormones again duh!

10:28 pm

cheeeeese!

10:28 pm

I am not allowed to take HRT.

10:29 pm

I realised I would not be and my doc confirmed it.

10:29 pm

sa5/10, sounds like the jolly guy who brings presents, diff last letter though

10:29 pm

thanx again, Cat

10:29 pm

yeah hpyhrted - that's what made my mind up for me!

10:29 pm

hooray, it's babble time again for me

10:30 pm

I know!!! Shaun!!

10:30 pm

smart!

10:30 pm

if you add yet another letter onto the end of sa5/10, you will get sa6/18, you're welcome phandmd :)

10:30 pm

So when you wanna booze it up again?

10:30 pm

tofu is a great source of phyto-estrogen, can be palatable if cooked right...

10:30 pm

He did offer me a drug for hot flushes that lowers the blood pressure but I've declined that for now since I have naturally low blood pressure anyway. I don't want to be dizzy and vision-impaired but 'cool'. I think I'll try the breathing exercises when the heat comes on.

10:31 pm

jacula - the hot flashes started about a month before my 47th birthday -LOL i was at work & kept saying 'is it hot or is it me?' convinced it wasn't me, i kept chaning the thermostat!!! LOL now we know better

10:31 pm

soon...are you guys going camping with us this weekend?

10:31 pm

and it works!

10:31 pm

*changing

10:31 pm

no, i didn't know we were invited!! but james is working :(

10:31 pm

Libarebel - I'll check out my tofu recipes. Any hints and tips?

10:31 pm

ya know the flashes do go away, but then you're just old so enjoy!

10:31 pm

blazing saddles...

10:32 pm

yeah my doctor didn't think it was menopause since i was 'so young', but now we're both pretty sure this is it!

10:32 pm

oh, we're going to waldport. haley has a tournament. we just decided to go and em and jon are going too.

10:32 pm

for hot flashes.. try progesterone cream that you can get at a pharmacy... really helps as does soy like edamame (soy beans you can buy frozen and heat and eat) or soy nuts

10:32 pm

i started at about 42 or so with the flashes

10:33 pm

jacula - what did you read about black cohosh that turned you off - my doc recommended it & it's pretty much standard

10:33 pm

phooey.

10:33 pm

hyphrted - My Mum is 72 and she still gets the sweats. Her friend is 84 and she still gets them. These facts depress me!

10:33 pm

i started a couple years ago and im 47

10:33 pm

hpy - now that IS young!!

10:33 pm

it might suck. who knows? i just hope it doesn't rain

10:34 pm

i heard its gonna be 95 degrees

10:34 pm

my chinese friend cooks it so deliciously! corn oil at exactly the righ temp-- after marinating! yum!

10:34 pm

also for the night hot flashes,,, freeze a wet hand towel in a baggie and keep next to your bed so when you awaken you can put that behind your neck and it really takes the edge off...

10:34 pm

i'm 66 and can't remember when i last had one, had a few after mastectomy but not for too long

10:34 pm

I sarted getting hot flasnes, and the start of meno in my late 30's. Still get hot flashes, much more now though, I am now 52.

10:34 pm

jac - yeah that's scary, my mom has been gone for almost 20 years, so i have no idea about when it happened to her or how long :(

10:35 pm

I keep a damp flannel by my bedside to either put on brow or between breasts when the hots strike.

10:35 pm

mama mac - YES, that's what i do & that really helps!

10:35 pm

awesome. i need to get a bathing suit. i've um...outgrown my old one.

10:35 pm

*flashes

10:35 pm

oh crap cat9!!!

10:35 pm

ugh. 68 left. i think i'm just going to accept that i won't finish this one.

10:35 pm

I was on hormone replacement therapy on and off for a few years (because ambivalent). But since I stopped for good I've had no symptoms.

10:36 pm

I know helen :( sux!

10:36 pm

** reading quietly unnoticed, and learning a lot in the process**

10:36 pm

haha. yeah me too, i just bought a new one. i used to buy small bottom, medium top. now its medium bottom, large top. and the one i just got.... lets just say large is not large enough. james forbade me from wearing it when he's not around

10:36 pm

Re the black cohosh downsides - some kind of argument about whether it does or does not cause breast cancer, whether it does or does not exacerbate tumours if you have them, and the fact that it can cause liver disfunctions.

10:36 pm

interesting eh bam

10:36 pm

i am telling my body that 3 years of this will be the right amount of time - sometimes these suggestions work!

10:37 pm

LOL bambam!

10:37 pm

oh, poor man, bambam! :-|

10:37 pm

haha! oh my god...they just dumped bugs all over a lady on fear factor

10:37 pm

10:37 pm

I took hormones for a few years, helped some, but I no longer take them.

10:37 pm

Too much soy can be problematic as well re breast cancer

10:37 pm

jac - huh, i've never heard anything about bad side effects

10:38 pm

my wife just turned 40, i suppose i have this to look forward to! and yeah i feel like i'm crashing a girl's night!

10:38 pm

feeling empathy hot flashes?a

10:38 pm

SICK!!! Mmm... as soon as jenna gets here i'm gonna go see syriana, eat pizza and drink wine (at the same time) :)

10:38 pm

Too chat or not to chat that is the question right now -- like Bambam I am expanding my education -- but on the other hand I feel a bit left out as I have no context for commisseration -- so I will have to settle for {{*Hugs for all*}}

10:38 pm

lol

10:38 pm

Cat, you sound like me - early menopause, HRT, etc.

10:38 pm

hey, you are welcome, bam!

10:38 pm

let's talk about men, oh (pause)...errr.. maybe not!

10:38 pm

nice, have a good time. i'm going to take a bath and go to bed. we're going to the zoo in the morning. gotta get some rest

10:38 pm

i'm learning things also, i figure it's just around the corner for me, i'm going to be 40 in November.

10:39 pm

oh yeah bambam, it''ll be fun for you when she can't get a solid nights sleep for months at a time - remember to be kind & patient

10:39 pm

lol, bam!

10:39 pm

JUst like you Mab, my Mother started menopause early too, in her late 30's.

10:39 pm

i'll be kind, patient, and overseas!

10:39 pm

I'm sure that men go through hormonal changes as well, gw and bambam

10:39 pm

bam is a good sport! :-D

10:39 pm

sc6/21 - person from one of the areas in the UK, + where ambulances are usually headed

10:39 pm

lol bambam!!

10:39 pm

WOLFIE! (((HUGS))) Oh sorry! Didn't mean to knock you over. Yes, it menopausal girlie night but you guys can read and learn from this, as I hope my guy will.

10:40 pm

bambam - that just may be the safest place for you LOL

10:40 pm

hi woulf!

10:40 pm

well, we do, mab -- but not quite on such a drastic level

10:40 pm

see ya latah

10:40 pm

Hi Fran!!

10:40 pm

Men's hormonal changes involve 20 year old women, corvets, hair replacement and pinkie rings lol

10:40 pm

so you think, gw.

10:41 pm

LOL cat!

10:41 pm

lol cat9!!

10:41 pm

darci, where ambulances are usually headed? I can only think hospital

10:41 pm

yeah my wife thinks i'm going to trade her in for a younger model.... to which i reply "you think i would do THIS AGAIN??"

10:41 pm

lol, cat!

10:41 pm

and if ONLY they had the sweats too! lol

10:41 pm

ph - which part of the hospital?

10:41 pm

well, not being there yet, I can't say for certain -- but I had my pinky ring phase in my 20's so that's out

10:41 pm

phandmd, sc6/21 is like a kids' riding toy minus an O

10:41 pm

I also tried accupuncture.... kinda worked worth a try

10:41 pm

No proper sleep for months or years... not a nice prospect. I do hope all of our men will be kind and patient. My guy is a lot younger than me and so may not be. I hope and pray that he is though. He's the bst thing that ever happened to me, as the song goes.

10:41 pm

lol Grey

10:42 pm

they get the limpies...

10:42 pm

LOL lib!

11:19 pm

Hi again folks, sorry I disappeared -- Kirsten has a severe issue with her jaw right now and getting her comfy is a bit of an issue. Gramma is coming by in 4 hours to take her to an oral surgeon -- hopefully she will get to see him today

11:19 pm

to get sick, someone in****** you with germs

11:19 pm

Reese's post made me start singing the old Who hit from Tommy... 'we're not gonna take it!' etc.

11:19 pm

in 4 hours? what are this dr.'s hours?

11:20 pm

grey - what's wrong with her jaw?

11:20 pm

Wolfie - is she teething again?

11:20 pm

Hello GreyWoulf!How are you doing this fine evening?

11:20 pm

She is on public assistance and the clinic opens at 6 am --- and to make matters worse -- they only accept 21 welfare cases each day

11:20 pm

i think that was Twisted Sister, not The Who

11:21 pm

ok - so we're not gonna take it!

11:21 pm

Jac -- this is momma we are talking about, not my daugher -- and she may have an abscess or it may be an impacted wisdom tooth

11:21 pm

oh dear that seems like a not so good situation, woulf

11:22 pm

we;re not gonna take it... anymore....

11:22 pm

Infant paracetamol, plus cold compress. Failing that, try a very hot lemon and ginger tabag applied to the site of the pain.

11:22 pm

38 words to go, 38 minutes to go!

11:22 pm

Minver -- I and the kids are great -- mommy is not doing so great

11:22 pm

go, Darci, go!

11:22 pm

Wolfie - same as I said before but up the para dose.

11:22 pm

yeah if it is an abscess don't use heat (speaking from previous experience), use ice and ibuprofen

11:23 pm

Any tincture of giner will hep ease th e pain.

11:23 pm

Hey Darci, that is a word a minute!!! Go Darci Go!!!

11:23 pm

she actually had to go to the ER tonight for an injection of anesthesia -- a Vicodin plus a Percoset did nothing!!

11:24 pm

Uh, oh, the cat is going to walk on my keyboard....just warning you....

11:24 pm

wow... how old is she?

11:25 pm

Darci -- I have had nights where I had more words to find than minutes and made it -- with this team on your side, anything is possible

11:25 pm

Wolfie - it sounds to me, unless she has a bad tooth, that her wisdom teeth are busy impacting themselves. That was the thing that sent my Mum's temp sky high and didn't allow her out of hospotal just after she'd had me.

11:25 pm

kier -- she is 40 in Sep

11:25 pm

heh. all the words i have left are longer ones, which is my weak point.

11:25 pm

Except for last night. at 12:30 I had one more word.

11:25 pm

can i get a clue for the le8?

11:25 pm

ohhhhhh. i thought you were talking about a baby!!!

11:26 pm

plural of the podiums you stand and speak at, darci

11:26 pm

le8 - plural; of the thing the the Bible sits on in Church.

11:26 pm

sorry. my bad. I had a super bad abcess and i kept hoping it would go away and they had a heck of atime working on it. they can't numb it well if it is too infected

11:26 pm

sorry for the confusion Kier -- it does trip me up at times since the names are so close

11:26 pm

thanks leslieann! that gave me two for the price of one!

11:26 pm

plural of the one before- Darci, go thru your list and check for plurals- they are evrywhere in this puzzle....

11:27 pm

People were cluing me nonstop for 30 minutes & the idiot that I am, never got the word. I was told after the flip & I felt so stupid afterword. It was the most exhausting and stressful thirty minutes of my life!!

11:27 pm

my husband will not stop updating me on: baskeball playoff (i could care less), world cup (ok but i don't need all the detail); college world series (stop yelling at the TV) and a mariner's game. AGHGHGHGHGHGGH

11:28 pm

lol kier

11:28 pm

Well, minver, if that's the worst thing you ever have to go through, I am glad for you. No, not beign sarcastic.

11:29 pm

it's the pressure, minver. the closer it gets to midnight, the more dumbed-down i need the clue to be

11:29 pm

Min -- I had a period of a couple of weeks where I went down to the wire for finishing the grid -- it got so that if I finished with more than 3 minutes on the clock I felt all upset cos I didn't know how to fill my time :D

11:29 pm

and then if i say anything (like I DON'T CARE ABOUT ALL THIS SPORTS!!!!) he gets indignant and says 'i am just trying to make conversation....'

11:29 pm

speaking of which, anyone want to clue a en 6/21 (after the person who says this product is great)

11:30 pm

how do you guys finish these things? how do you do it w/out clues? i just don't get it...

11:30 pm

kielex, my hubby lives in Dallas, and I am alone most of the time....try to be glad he's there at all.....(I know, it's hard when they are sports freaks)

11:30 pm

kier -- I have only ever finished 2 grids with out clues and both were under 50 words

11:31 pm

Try being me and telling my England supporter that 'it's only a game'. Have I dared to do that since the World Cup started? Have I heck!

11:31 pm

jai how come you live apart?

11:31 pm

I was just exaggerating! I just get so into this thing sometimes! It's pretty sad But tonight I am relaxed becuase I know I will not finish so that is not my goal!

11:32 pm

ok, i'm going to start asking for clues. i have 33 left, but i'll give it the ol' college try

11:32 pm

Re the doing it(the grid) without clues thing: Over time, the words make themselves apparent. It's jusat like the crossword you get used to.

11:32 pm

ac7/32?

11:32 pm

highest card in the deck + high fruc**** corn syrup?

11:33 pm

good clue, leslieann!

11:33 pm

the second ch5/14 and the following ch5/0?

11:33 pm

oops. that should say ch5/20

11:34 pm

11:34 pm

ac7/32 - the first word I got in this grid, as I'd just been removing nail polish before entering. The ac7 word means 'tasting like vinegar'.

11:34 pm

hail to the ch 5/20, darci

11:34 pm

He lost his job a few years ago- took him 2 years to find another- it required a move to dallas and we had a kid still in H.S> who would have slit herr throat if I pullled her out of her school....so we stayed and he went....and now she has gaduated, and he still hasn't finished the work on the house so we can sell it (Katrina did quite a number on it, besides) So I am stuck....sagas of Babbleland....As the Grid Turns....

11:37 pm

11:37 pm

Jai - if you remember the old adage that 'The Mother is to BLAME for EVERYTHING!' you may regain your sense of humour. If not, message me through BabAnon.

11:37 pm

Having a SO who actively supports your Babble addiction is a big help too!

ooooooooooh, i saw that - thought it didn't work. tx!
