Leslie, I'm using Safari on my Mac and it displays fine. What browser are you using?
Good night all, thanks for all the help. Wish we couod get back to manageable grids (ie. for me!) of 100 words or so.
harumph, just ie
(harumph at my comp, not at you)
nite, hetty and me too about the grids
c 8/50
p 8/60
good morning, everyone!
p 8/50, p 9/66
icon test, sorry.
dangit!
i see the vw icon, scoutsmom
Icon themes are up for the rest of June and all of July.
ch 8/50
I don't. Guess it's taking longer for me!
aha! I had a '77 in high school, and got a '71 VW for college graduation. My now-ex husband totaled it. Jerk.
ok - all better now!
lol, good one helen
well, hetty now we know to work harder earlier!
ty la!!!
I don't think I know any 9 letter words, lol
the p 9 builds off of a pa 7/32
sheesh, you guys are fast!
ooh somehow I got that one LA thanks
it's fun to *start* these biggies, but finishing them is another story...
what, leslie? I don't get the pa7 or 9.
Good morning everyone, good clue LA
R8/45
pa 7 - plaids, polka dots etc. are types of pa*****
pa, think the pitter pa**** of little feet
ah. I was working off of the pitter pa7/32. thanks!
hello paddy
and for some reason I grabbed the pa7/36 too quick, so that's all I saw.
what time is it where you are?
jai - are you on ?
just gone 6 am, I usually awake from 4 am
good lord, why?
leslie ann, 10:17 pm Pacific Daylight Time (west coast Canada)
I get up at 4 to 4.30 am every day to commute to work. The body clock is still stuck at the weekends.
yowza. your family better appreciate that commute you do
No, there's only me so I don't have to worry about waking anybody up. Lol!
how far is your commute paddy?
ah, well that is an impressive schedule nonetheless
fe8
About 90 mins drive each way but it's across farm land so the roads are really bad. I quite enjoy it though. I've a daughter of 7 who lives near me so I like to be close by for her at the weekends. she's a trainee babbler
hmm, muse, i have 4/5 there, so i guess i'm just missing the 8 :)
Hi kids ..
hullo torgone

hey helen!
Thanks Ren, she's worth it. It's my weekend with her so we've got lots to do.
I didn't pull up Lickety's list yet; probably should before this becomes a horror to find out what I'm missing
ooooohhhhh, it's a biggie
no - lickety was on earlier & said the list will be about 5 hours late
mama!
hi mamabear!
wull hullo mamabear. it's like a babble reunion tonight
omg!
good morning/good nite/good day....... everyone!
hi renfield!
it is like a reunion.......
paddy...that's nice. y'all will have a grand old time, I'm sure.
Lickety said he wouldn't be abletoput up thelist for about 5 hours!!!!
at least i think that's what was said - maybe something about going to see a child's performance - yeah - i really don't remember
Well, I'm down to 183 left, so I'm ready to start clueing! ..
hey my
hiya mamabear!
I wish I could bring all my words that I found yesterday and before to... LOL.... however is is my only stress releiver
hey ren! hi leslieAnn... helen..... blaze.... scoutsmom.....mymuseisme..... and ... *blink blink*.... torgone!!!!
torg - where's tom?
sad to say, I'm close to the same number I had on yesterday's puzzle!
mama...don;t twirl torg..the ceiling fan's on
p 8/55, p 9/72
my goodness gracious me, torgone!!! So many so soon?
too tired to twirl tonite... (lots of T words there!)
rape
sorry
thank you just the same LOl
i have a confession to make....uh...i just ate some cheetos.....
blaze, lol so hard I almost spat wine on the laptop.
it's ok ren... doesn't count after midnite if you are still up from the day before
i got my jammies on...andwell...i just couldn;t sleep w.out the cheetos
I have a confession too...just poured another glass of wine. guess I'm here for a bit longer. so much for early to bed...
it's that cheesy poof pacifier!
Crap. . .Can't find my picture . . .stand by . . .
trying to decide if I want to enter any words
mama you haven't been here in forever! of *course* you have to play
i started wirds while i was eating my cheetos
those are some wird words
cheetos...is there anything they can't do?
they don't make good drink stirrers
or christmas tree ornaments
i woonder if chester cheese uses them on his tree? or his wreath?
or key chains
possibly
or houseshoes
maybe, but only for a short while b/c then he would eat them
hello All! another biggie...
hi chic!!!!!
hi ya chic
they are also not recommended if you have even one tiny portion of white clothing on
hi chic
or doorstops
Hello Mama and Ren! and mymuse!
so lame...my movie's over and all I've done is 2 loads of laundry and babble. hot time friday night!
or curtain rods
lol scout!
or VWs.
or guitar picks
i can't tell you how many times i've made *that* mistake... my door slams shut, and i've forgotten and used a cheeto again
you need to chill scouts mom...to much work!
or remote controls
Well halfway through. Will say good night or good morning whichever zone you're in.
again with the spewed wine, LeslieAnn. not fair! now I'm just wasting it.
have a good day paddy!
good nite paddy
night Paddy
you better chug, just to be safe
enjoy your girl, paddy. mine's home in 12 hours.
or eyeliner...
scoutsmom needs a wine reflector attachment on her glass
nite paddy
hahahaha eyeliner
chuga lug chug a lug
or a bib. either way.
good one libarebel!
or walking stick
or a mp3
lol, all, cheetos! :D
now all I hear is Scout saying "deetos, mommy! want deetos!"
lol, i'm just picturing someone plugging their ipod headphones into and cheeto and rocking out
Or siding, or shoelaces, or tires . .
there's more to a cheeto than meets the eye
but those little orange suckers taste good!
I knew you'd join in sooner or later, torg!
don't count your cheetos before they're hatched
or windshield wipers
a cheeto in the hand is worth two in the bush
or prom dates
or hatch your cheetos before they're counted.
a stitch in cheetos saves burritos
wait, that's not right
a rolling cheeto gathers no moss...
depends on which side of the hill you roll it on
renfield, I take issue with that. one of my prom dates could have been replaced with a cheeto and it would have been hunky-dory with me.
lol!
amen scoutsmom
cheetomania!
lol scouts mom - i withdraw the cheeto
yeah, but everyone would have known if you were making out on the way over
my name is in the grid!
yep, the telltale orange...
yes it is!
found it, hk!
lol - new orange lipgloss
Only way they could have known that is because one cheeto and my dress wouldn't have fit...
two second rule is extended when cheetos hit the floor
or when the cheetos hit the fan?
when would a cheeto hit the floor? they're designed to be inhaled.
is anyone else craving cheetos here who has none in the house?
Cheetos?? We ain't got no Cheetos . .I don't got to show you no stinkin' Cheetos!!!
*raises hand* me! me! but what wine goes with them? All I have is red.
lol, leslie!
if I wrap a piece of cheese around a potato chip - would that work?
NO, never crave them!
Hmm I am trying NOT to think about that one.....
*raises hand* i am craving cheetos.
lol had some today, the round version
lol torg...they are treasures
whoa, torgone..... easy does it
getting the cheese and potato chip..... will let you know how it goes
Ooooohhhh, Pancho! Ooooooh, Cheeto!
got cheetos?
apparently, one thing they CAN do is hijack the whole babble chat in the wee hours. yippee!
still haven't entered a word
those cheeto bandits!
grid, grid, oh yeah - over there on the left
frito lay should pay us!
CHEETO BANDITOS!
lol, scout!
my grid is kind of cheeto yellow / orange
lol scouts mom
little square cheetos on a bed of lettuce
and i see cheddar right in the middle
lol that was my phantom word of the day
that;s what did it to me ya know
Not much of a Cheeto shop, is it?
Okay, y'all. I'm going to put the laundry away and head off to bed before I coat my laptop screen with merlot. I'll log back in when I get up and see if there's any more cheeto-talk then. If not, I'll make it happen. y'all have a good night!
good night scoutsmom! thanks for the fun!
Cheeto dreams, ScoutsMom . .
nite scoutsmom!!!! *saving a cheeto*

Your 8 ..
the cheetos web site has games
VW's don't cut it!
no, he's a ch*****
wuh-oh folks, chic is rebeling against the theme! :)

hey angel!
hi, ren! have you checked out the calendars? I updated the icon calendar thru the end of July.
almost afraid to ask, but how many words today?
i was on there this evening angel! looks good
no talent jili - just practice - i play a game just like this, but in warp-speed - it's timed, find as many words as you can in 2 minutes - i am a good player there, but nowhere near the top of the heap (causei mouse instead of typing!)
280
sigh, thanx
helen, would that be text twist?
no moon - tangleword at iwin.com
what is text twist?
helen, i'n slow and unsteady so I don't win the race(s), but get there in the end, sometimes!
k8/65
ooh impressive
helen, you can find it under word games at yahoo games.
i'm slow...i know
lol jili! - yeah, unlike me, i didn't get to finish yesterday's grid - too much chat for/from me!
thanks moon - is it fun?
somewhat
somewhat

Night Mamabear *hug*
hmm, eeler isn't a word? One who hunts eels LOL
nite mama :)
Absolutely. Another stupid bug in enable.
is that what it is sprite? I thought I was imagining it being a word.
You were. And I am right with you.
:)
Language is a living and creative thing. Enable is nothing but frozen, dead remains ;)
I agree! :)
Finally cooled off, shower time, I'll be back later, bye Sprite :)
Bye Cat!
any clues for the T word in the right hand corner?
I can make lots of words from that T, but they all can be made from the other T as well.
try the past tense of the mammary appendage..
Yeah! Thanks Aloyisius!
yw, that was fun.. but I think I'm going to hit the ole sack now.. have been enjoying this grid! Good night, all.. (-:
Night!
reheat
Night Aloy and morning all A big grid but very forgiving as I have found a 9 all by my self!! That just never hpappens.
Darn! I am so sorry!
LOL thanks sprite.
zzzzzz... night, FMitch.. nite, sprite.. zzzz, or good morning ...
yo aloy!
Hubby home for the weekend. Wanna come over?
ahhhhh. hello everyone
Hi everyone, I'm back! Had a shower, washed my hair, shaved my legs, ahhh, feel like a new woman! After todays heatwave, this is a welcome relief! Aren't ya'll glad I shared that lol
hi kier!
Well, it will lead you to another 9, Fmitch... to make up for my stupidness.
hey i just showered too! felt awesome after a day of gardening and clearning...
LOL Cat Hi to you and Hi kierlex.
Cat, darn, you are FAST!
Yep, walk slow, shower fast :)
Hi kierlex -- hi cat
hi FM and Jilli :)
no such thing as a quick shower in my book -)
You have more lesure time left like that ;)
Sure makes ya feel great doesn't it Kier!
hi Jilli and friends
yep, esp the shaving and lotion. ahhhhh.
I am a looong bath taker, fast shower taker :)
Oh, found another 9! P9/66 :)
ohh, now i hate baths. but i could shower for 45 minutes
well, hello flosey! how many words do you have now?
I waited all day for it to cool off so I could take my shower, Midnite and it finally did.
Congrats sprite!!!
Hi flosey!
I always have to summon the courage to take a shower (can't stand long), but once I am in water, I don't wanna leave :)
just started, 43
I love long baths, bubbles and a good book, I am in heaven!
i have a heart condition (nothing serious) but when i am in hot baths or hot tubs i get really faint. showering doesn't seem to do that
brain's not wide awake
*or should that be "summon up"?
know the feeling kierlex - been there
I should think not at this hour, flosey -- and mine is rapidly shutting down
I agree kier, baths do tend to make you feel faint if it gets too hot. And showers don't do that, don't know why.
hasn't enable ever read Dragonlance?
had been asleep
If you can recuperate, why can't you cuperate?
i have not read dragonlance.
good questionsprite
Enable isn't into any of that kind of reading, Ata. Hi and *hug*
LOL, true sprite!
Hi Ata!
and hi *hug* I want kenders!
hello atalante
Ata, there is a K8. Really.
i cant believe tech isnt a word. this dictionary was published in 1964 i think
really? cool!
but techie is isn't it?
1964 AD, yes.
we knew about the ramblin wreck from georgia tech long before the 60s!
you give them too much credit Kier, 1964? Try 1904 lol
and why is french 'sister' and spanish 'father' but not others? really!
LOL sprite!!!!!! LMAO!!!
yes, there inclusion of non-english words is so random
97 left, better get to it :)
well, maybe 1964 BCE
Yes, we had 'techie' once or twice. There is absolutely no logic involved in the enable.
cat, do you like my piccy?
Iguess you're clawing your way out of this, ata --?
Aww! I love it Ata! That is so cool!
I LOVE it, Ata (even if I am no Cat)
kitten's trying to help, I think :)
That is wonderful, may I keep a copy of it? Maybe use it as a desktop pic?
P's have gone dark, 94 words to go.
well done Angel!
Good job, Angel!
ty! Sprite, FMitch, the icons calendar has been updated thru the end of July.
sure cat! let me get you a decent sized copy of it though!
yea I noticed Angel, nice work.
Owwww Ata, may I beg for one too?
That's great, Angel!
Thank you Ata!
pa7/36, another word for a mate or comrade is a misspelled word - a regionalism. why not datter for data, then. stupid puzzle.
there! http://www.atalante.f2s.com/claws.jpg - decent sized copy for you all!
That's amazing Angel! I was beginning to disbelieve there could be 50 p's.
Thanks so much Ata! You are the BEST! :)
Thanks so much, Ata, it is a perfect pic!
I just noticed profiles have the date the player joined Babble. any interest in a calendar for babble anniversaries?
*grins* even Silverclaw's claws are photogenic!! I need to make her into a cat model and earn lots of money from her ...
Oh yes, that would be fun, Angel!
I think I can do a Babble Anniversaries Calendar quite easily.
Yes I asked Dr_G if he could add the date joined field and he did it within 24hrs.
I'd like that.
It's done, now my new desktop, I LOVE it!! Thanks again Ata :)
no probs :) am always happy to share kit pics!!
FMitch, you certainly must have something I don't, LOL. Teach me how to communicate with the man?
mab, I hope that by my completing the 50 P's, I've managed to pe8/55 you that there are in fact 50 P's in the grid. If I have, I am a good pe9/72.
LOL shame I can't be as effective with the log issue :(
Wow Angel, thanks for those clues :)
Maybe that's it, FMitch, that's where it went wrong here too :)
I liked that a lot, sprite!
can anyone give me an easy clue for the se 9? it is one of my last ones, and i just can't find it. thanks
se9, is se4/5 + ea5/10
Wtg joey! Sorry, I don't have it yet.
yes, thank you Angel.
thank you so much for the help, Cat9x, I never would have gotten that
sounds like what you might call a bird who consumes se4/9's
That is really a fun word to find.
it was a fluke that I did LOL You're welcome Joey :)
kit's realised she's famous and is now sitting on my laptop
I love large grids! such fun!!
For the 9s I have Px2, R and S. Can someone tell me the first letter of the last 9 please?
awww :) She is famous! She is all the rage her in Cali...well, at least in my home :)
Good morning all. Another big grid!
2 re's sprite
Hi Haz! It is big, but very much fun!
Thanks Cat.
Even with the dreaded k there?
one is what you do to food, the other is what an actor or actress does.
... but sooo many p's!!! Morning Haz
Hi Haz! Great grid, lots of fun!
thanks for all the help. all i have left are some re's and some u's.... I just have to get some sleep.
Good grief, I've just looked to see - 50 p words?
It was the actor one I was missing. Thanks again :)
Even with the dreaded K, all the k's but one are connected.
you're welcome sprite :)
There are some k words from yesterday - who says we don't remember these things?
whereabouts in the bay area are you, cat?
In San Jose, Ata, near the Campbell border.
omg. I was there in May
No way!!!! Were you?
yeah, was staying in Santa Clara with friends but we ventured into San Jose a good amount!
Haz, there are quite a few good runs in the p's that build to 7s 8s and a couple of 9s
Wow! Ever heard of the Winchester Mystery House? I an right down the road :)
I never he5 of that, but it sounds like a place to visit, Cat!
I'm having fun already!
If you ever come back, we will have to meet for a drink and exchange kitty stories :)
definitely heard of it! I think we must have gone almost right past your house! well, I'll be back over there before too long, I hope, so then I can come and say hi now I know you're there!
Cat and Ata both said a wo-ord, Cat and Ata both said a wo-ord. :)
It's wonderful sprite! Its the mansion of Sarah Winchester, her hubby was the Winchester of gun fame. She went nuts and kept building and building onto the house, very rich, beautiful Victorian, they say its haunted :)
oopsie sprite :)
Let me know if you ever make it back Ata, we will definitely meet for a time! :)
That certainly asks for a visit, Cat!
I will make it back! I get over there about once a year on average!
Poor woman, turned into a recluse, thought the spirits of people killed by her husbands weapons came back to haunt her. Very tragic story.
wonderful Ata!
She was only a tad over 4 feet tall, and built tiny doors that opened to nothing, hiding places all over, walkways that went nowhere, all in trying to confuse the spirits. One of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen. I adore anything Victorian, homes, clothes, you name it. My dream is to one day own a Victorian home. Ok, I've rambled on enuf, back to the grid!
Sold!
lol, good! You can come and we will have a visit too!
That would be so nice :)
http://www.winchestermysteryhouse.com/ good old google!!!
They have a website you can visit, tell the story and has pictures, just Google Winchester Mysery House.
yes it would! :)
yikes, forgive my horrid typos :)
Google is the best!
good morning folks... it's the weekend!! :D
They have midnight Halloween tours, expensive, but very fun!
Good morning Sherb
I'd love to go there ... next time!
Hi sherb!
You'll like it Ata, it's a wonder to see, the beauty of that home :)
Okay, I put the link on my PIP, and will keep it in mind when planning holidays!
can you take photos in there, do you know?
Good sprite! :)
morning Cat, morning sprite :) :)
Hey sherb, morning.
That I don't know, Ata, I would assume you can, don't see why not.
Good morning sherb - Dr_God has been generous and given you a big grid for the weekend.
It's a Landmark here, and I would expect them to allow photos.
wow - bet you could get some amazing pics in there of all the little doorways and passages and stuff
Sometimes it is forbidden, because they sell commercial pics.
I bet you could. It has been on TV quite a few times too, people trying to solve whether or not Sarah Winchester really is a sprit there. The people who work there talk about things that are moved, noises etc they themselves have seen and heard.
True sprite, but I will find out, I am curious now :)
Well, if I were a spirit, I would feel invited to a house with several doorways and passages built just for spirits!
hi FMitch :) hi Haz :) ...I've started to prefer the smaller grids... *whispers* I think my Babble addiction might be waning...
LOL sherb! Heresy!
so would I! sounds a perfect place for spirits!
This is a wonderful grid though Sherb, even if it is large,
What therapy did you get Sherb?
Yes it does Ata! I love things like that, spirits, hauntings, can you tell? lol
LOL Haz
I suppose you have to want to be cured of an addiction. I haven't reached that stage yet.
I need someone to kick me next time I try 'create'.
Nor have I Haz :)
LOL, will do sprite!
Thanks :)
10 hours days at work... finally decided I can work or Babble, but not both... oddly, it feels like a liberation, and now I can enjoy when I do play...
Well, enjoyment is the main thing and if you can babble without feeling guilty or stressed, then that has to be good.
I must admit I only play for fun, never feel like I have to. It's just too much fun. If I have the time, I play. :)
But then it takes you less time than the rest of us! But I'm glad you play for fun.
The moment I find I have no fun playing, I will stop. What's the use of playing if it isn't enjoyment?
You're right. And this is a fun grid!
wow that winchester house was something! the first picture on the homepage was so impressive AND THEN I SAW THE AERIAL PHOTO!!! HOLY COW
I like to play when I can take my time and chat... it was a run of large grids a few weeks ago that finally broke me...
One of the best we had in a long time :)
I suppose I'd better start entering some words...
It's enormous isn't it kier!
I think I play relaxed, because I couldn't care less about the ratings. So not finishing a grid wouldn't be a problem (though I love hunting those last words) and not playing for a day or more is no problem either.
160 rooms! amazing. i think one of the bedrooms in there is bigger than our whole house..
It's wonderful isn't it!!!
And sherb - don't try create. Sprite has already tried and it isn't there!
i adore old houses, would love to visit.
Nor recreate, of course. Cat has kicked me for keep on trying.
I do too kier, they have charecter, not like todays homes. They are works of art!
On my request ;)
LOL sprite!
our house was built in 1937. definitely has 'character' lol
lol
If I won the lottery, thats what I would do, restore a Victorian.
sprite - you put your finger on it... I cared too much about the rankings... it's the competitor in me...
these McMansions nowadays are so lame. it's like architectural porn
You got it Kier!
our's is more just a simple cottage, nothing fancy. it has good bones but a lame cinderblock foundaiton
what rankings are you talking about guys?
Cat - I live in a VIctorian house... I love the old features like the high ceilings, large windows... but the maintenance never ends...
hey guys! Can you guys help me with et5/12 and et6/18
kier - at the top of the page... click on 'Rankings'
Oh Sherb you are so lucky!!! True, it's a neverending battle I am sure, but is it worth it?
et6==forever, poetically
et5: et + humanlike animal.
et5=store house, military issue, sounds like something you listen to on the net
it's certainly worth it... I especially love the quirky features, like the original glass which is still left in some of the windows... it's slightly rippled, because that's how it was in those days...
oh the rankings were interesting. i had no idea!
It sounds wonderful sherb!
I never knew of the rankings either, oh well, I'd be low on them anyway! :)
Don't let them ruin your fun in playing though ;)
If you keep going the way you are, Cat, then you will move up the rankings. But they are not the most important thing at all.
oh, i won't. i have only finished one babble in my whole career =)
pfff who cares about the rankings :)
I never would, it's not something I would bother with anyway, I do this for me, no one else :)
Same h4!
Thanks Haz, I never had the time to finish before, was too spent from taking care of my Mom. I'm not complaining mind you, I'd do it again, any day.
ok then... i need to go to bed i keep drifting off to sleep despite myself
sleep well kier!
Night Kier!
it's odd, but one of the best things about babble is working on the resource pages. they have grown a lot since they lived on my hard drive.
I know you would, Cat.
Your resource page is wonderful, Angel. A big help for new players too.
ok, I am missing one U, can't seem to find it. I have ur4/5, us4/6 and us4/5, any hints on what I can't see"? :)
gnite all. i got one more word and then drifted again.
ur5/12 is also there.
Good night kierlex - sleep well.
I have 8xU
Thanks Haz. Nite nite kier:)
I was catching up on the new entries on Babblers Anonymous... enjoyed the debate about lists...
nite kierlex :)
Did you add your own thoughts?
sherb have you see Haz'z stories from a life as a vets wife, really good reads!!
not yet... still debating how forthright I should be...
(FMitch is my literary agent)
it that really you, FMitch? was too freaky with that other guy using your pic yetserday!
I know it all got very confusing didn't it.
no, I didn't see those... will go and look...
Yeah, finished the Ps :)
good job sprite! I still have half to go on the P's.
A few uncommon ones, but not much. Most are easy to find :) Lots of combos.
One of my fav P words is in the grid, love that word, don't know why, just the way it rolls off the tongue!:) Pe6/24, to read
And past tense? I looked at the first Pe6/24 and wondered if that really meant 'to read', LOL.
yes have the past tense also :) Wonderful word!
I'm tickled that it takes 'Howdy pa7/36'
woot! just got the k8 :)
wtg Ata!
Yes, it's a southern grid lol
well who would have thought Haz and thanks didn't have that one.
I am down to 15 and working from my list, to see if I have forgotten plurals and such. I have.
Congrats Ata!
I always miss some plurals somewhere, always
so do I ... and its SO annoying!
I tried it with no real hope that it would work, but there you go.
Somehow it's even more embarrassing for me to discover I forgot singulars.
Haha, dr4/5 expression of annoyance
Same here, I monkey typed it thinking no way, and voila, accepted! But eeler isn't, go figure.
And Da4/5 as well, Calq!
Oh yeah heheh
My worst nightmare would be to get a job as a da6/21.
agree, hard hard work.
The grass or the repairer?
read your stories Haz... laughed so much it brought tears to my eyes... :D
repairer I was speaking of :)
The repairer - I have an allergy to needles and thread.
Glad you enjoyed them sherb!
lol, as do I!
:)
Haz - where can we find your stories?
In BabAnon under Other Interests - Animal Magic.
I look forward to them -- when my eyes will stay open, which is not now! I think I'll crash very soon
Fireworks! I go look up your story, Haz, right now :)
Bed sounds like a good idea, jillibus!
yayyyy Sprite!
Congratulations sprite!
Woohoo sprite. I've reached 153 and need to make a start on the day I think.
and I'm the same Myers Briggs type as brandyjack...
yay sprite! I shoudl really stop just looking at the chat log and start looking back at the grid
I haven't worked out my type yet. Who do I want to be the same as?.........
it's interesting how people's personalities come across in the chat log...
‘I’m not shouting,’ she said, ‘I talk loud to everybody’ LOLLLL!
It's so much fun, Haz :)
I couldn't believe it when she said it!
pu8/60 - pugilists (that's a clue, not the word :) )
And it's a good clue, thank you!
"The dog has come in and he is listening" LOL! Oh dear, I have tears in my eyes from laughing!
no more Home Truths... wonder what's going to replace it...
Argh... sorry to have posted words there!
I must be off, back later this afternoon. Happy Babbling!
later FMitch... I probably be here... still haven't entered any words yet...
I am off too. Haz, I simply loved reading your animal magic. Thanks for sharing!
byeeee you two!
bye sprite :)
bye Haz and Sprite!
oh Cat - let me show you this - silverclaw yesterday, so funny - http://www.atalante.f2s.com/kit%20lapp y.jpg
Bye sprite - have a good day.
off to do battle in Waitrose... later folks :)
Have I missed FMitch going as well? Bye and see you later.
That is so funny Ata! What a character he is! Beautiful cat :)
I should head off myself. 133 words still left to find. Bye everybody - or as Miss Mapp would say 'Au reservoir'
she ;)
finally got one of the nines, huzzah!
bye to you too Haz :)
congrats Cal!! Bye Haz :)
She, sorry! :)
she's a crazy little thing!
I LOVE my new desktop pic! Thanks again Ata! and silver claw :)
:D completely flukey shot but it worked wonderfully!
It sure did! :)
I could take pics of that cats all day long, she's *so* photogenic!
I will have to get some photo's of mine to share, if I ever get my digital camera back from my Son! :) Yes, she is very photogenic! Cutie pie!
oh yes, you must!!! :):)
Trying to get anything back after my Son borrows it, is like pulling teeth, but I will! :)
tell him everyone in Babble demands it!!
I will :) lol
padre
oh poop! sorry!
ty!
LOL, you're welcome!
hey again all
hi hurshy!
hey hurshy
i didn't sleep well so i opted out of seeing chateau d'if in favor of doing laundry by hand in the tub in our room, and babbling.
look at the pic in my profile, hurshy!
the self-service laundromat seems to have gone out of business, the hotel service is closed on weekends, and would be ridiculously expensive anyway... ok looking at ata's pic...
hi hurshy!
awwwwwwwwwwwww
Isn't that a wonderful pic hurshy?
yes
hi mab :) how are you?
how are YOU?
is it fun?
i'm good, and yes, it is fun, rome and venice were great :) i'm using marseille as more of a practical stop.
Marseille isn't *the* most interesting place in the world ...
no, not really. i did have b.b. for dinner last night at the best restaurant in the city... so i think i can officially say i'm not crazy about fish stew
good morning everybody:)
and i just feel like i need to recharge with "normalcy" before doing more sightseeing and stuff
morning jean
good morning jean
travelling can be so tiring - one has so many options for seeing the sites. a little break is a good thing.
yes...on a five week trip...breaks needed. i'm worried though that i'm needing one already!
it seems like you're been away for ages :)
i'm halfway through, how's everyone else doing?
lol halfway through exactly!
it seems like that to me too...esp where my cats are concerned!
i played with a very cute puppy in venice though :)
phantom word today: serene
awwwwww!
why can we get hosen but not leder?
108 left here. I can't sleep because my stomach is hurting - I'm flagging badly at this point. It's a great grid, though
oh, poor mab... :(
this connection is working a lot better today than yesterday
I'm sorry you don't feel well mab, hope you feel better, tummy aches are the worst.
these e's are making me deeezzy
parsel should be allowed, like in parseltongue
:)
oops. must dash. dog walk time! back in a bit!
bye Ata!
bye ata dear :)
gee, this must be a quiet time of day
Can be at this time, was busy earlier, everyone disappeared
well i'll just keep working away :)
he6/12 - the last car most people ever ride in. hehe

Good morning!
Hi Eva
peta
hello eva
oops=need to open my eues a bit more!

people for the ethical treatment of animals is a fine organization, if extreme at times
and good morning to merp
hope you feel better mab, sleep well!
hi Jean
hi everyone :)
ooh, what flag is that onpaki?
Agreed hurshy, I am a member.
singapore :)
neato
yay! finally got the last F-word that was eluding me
ooh, i'm missing an F as well, clue that last one up
hmm... hard to clue without making it too obvious heheh
oh ok then don't :)
maybe your last wasn't the one i'm missing anyway
my last fe, was fe8/60, think of the FBI, or fe*s plus 2nd vowel plus ra4/4, that one?
ooh that would be mine
good heavens, and me a star trek fan
yeah that was the one heheh.
lol
i also miss one K
mine are all ke, are there any kr?
hello!!
nope, all ke's
morning bex
do you have ke8?
bexie bexie!!
no i have not got ke8!
hi Bex
but i see what i think it is now that you say it!
It's a sort of past tense of ke6/30
woohoo, 2 more 8's and 2 more 9's to go
take the ke6/30, add on, you will get it
can someone clue the ke8 please?
oh, thanks
another phantom today: harden
past tense of ke6/30, think popcorn, what you pop.
28 left and I am fading, will finish tomorrow, bye everyone!
thanks cat, see ya
night cat (almost noon here!)
ah, how i dislike c's and h's
is there a better way to get words into lickety's list without retyping them?
*hurshy splashes about in the chat pool, she figures if no one is around she can make a big mess*
oh look there is calqhoon
as no one else is going to answer, and so as not to appear rude, i suppose i must say that i would answer your question but i don't do that myself so i don't know they answer.
oh, okey-doke
oops how'd that y get in there?
thanks anyway
sure are a lot of p words
oopsie
i'm here, but sorry calqhoon, i don't know any way other than typing them one by one.
thanks anyway folks, guess i should stop looking for shortcuts ;)
hi
only 19 'p's to go!
hi jamos
greetings, jamos with some sort of box
going well
how r u all?
golly, have all you people joined since i left a week ago or have you just not chatted before?
can u tell me sum words?
yeah c'om
addition
c'mon
total
add
sigma notation
rend
don't chat often but help and ask for clues occasionally
now now golf, we musn't post words in the chat if we can help it
well nice to meet you RRRRR
there not working
you asked for sum words, we gave you sum words
how do i do it
you too - it's 7:40pm over here so might keep babbling for a bit more tonight
jamos - you find letters that connect to make words and you type them in where it says "add word", you can change directions but you can't use the same tile over again in one word. you can use 2 e's if they are 2 different e tiles.
i no
Good afternoon everyone!
well then why did you ask how to do it
its 8:30 over here
RRRRR, are you still there?
i found out
hi there kittyvane
it's 1.13 pm over here
can all of u SHUT UP
can all of u SHUT UP
ha ha ha
it is 8:14 at australia
yes, we can, golf, if you just click on the "my friends" tab, or shrink your window.
u shut up or il hit u with a driving range
hey everyone!
and I'm off to a good start on this grid, although I don't fancy the amount of P-words to be found... ...or the rude chatters either. ;)
be nice golf
the p's are indeed numerous.
there are some 9's from the p's too :)
Oh dear, I'm disliking the Ps more and more
and by "some" you mean... (i have one)
can u tell me some p words
i have 2
I just have the one 8-letter P-word
whitch is
i've got 2 p8's and a bunch of 7's
one of the 9 is past tense of a 7. pa7/32. does it help?
that is the one i have :)
I have two 7-letter Ps and a handfull of the shorter ones
no
can u just tell me
plz
no, we can't jamos, we don't post words in the chat, only clues.
no jamos - that's not the point of the game
jamos-the pat7/32 could be stripes or checks or flowers on a piece of fabirc
what does it sound like
jamos, there is a p fruit. it has 4 letters. you can make it plural too.
?
?
ty Eva! i got a 9 letter out of that!
another phantom today: chapter
ce6/24 - ****ing needle, mends socks
eva what does it sound like
Thank you Eva, I also got the 9-letter one out of that :)
yw Galloway
i really dont no
how old is jamos?
thanks calqhoon!
jamos-it doesn't really sound like anything I can think of, but if you arrange shapes you make a pa_____. Also, if you want to play this game, it helps to start with the shorter, easier words because often they can later be made into longer ones, and after a while you begin to see the pa______
no problemmo :)
only 2 more c's!
i got it
re6/21 immediately folloiwng the re9?
which re9?
yay i got it
great jamos!
good for you jamos
thax eva
&hurshy
the people who prepare leftovers hurshy
the next i have after that is to let borrow money again
jamos-know if you take off the last letter you have a few other words you can make out of that same one
ok
but i still need 5 more r's so... that might not be the one you want angel
there are some great words to be made from that last car people ever take one
bye everybody have a good day:)
you too jean
bye jean
what letters go on the end of pa6?36
don't know jamos. I don't have a pa6/36
theres r
Shalom everyone -- been a long time travelling, working, visiting .
take of the n
then leve it
shalom ARB-nice to see you back. Were you in the states visiting your kids?
Visited a daughter, son-in-law and gfranddaughter in Burlington Vermont and my sister and her family in Chicago.
jamos, that would make it a p6/21
so you were very near to where I live-how did you like all the rain?
Does anyone have a clue for the single T-word of the T in the right corner of the grid? That one has me stumped!
I was in Vermont 5 days and it didn't rain at all -- surprising considering how much there's been. Visited the art museum at Middlebury college -- isn't that near you?
how do u talk in that code
kitty-something with nipples is this
I'm near Montpelier
for te when you cry you need to wipe away your te***
Ahh - the other direction.
Thank you Eva! It didn't occur to me to try that ending :)
thax i got that 1
jamos: p6/21 means it has 6 letters and you get 21 points
oh
ok
jamos-here's the code: pa6/21, for example, means the first 2 letters are pa, the word is 6 letters long, and it is worth 21 points. Can someone tell Jamos where to look for all of the explanations for how to play the game?
theres t4/4
i get the code i get it
i got 100 points
jamos check the friends of babble links, i like using lickety's babble clues, it gives you a great list to work from with all of the first two letter combos
so far
send
sender
oops!!! times two
jamos, the more you play the game the better you get. It takes a lot of patience though.
i no
Hiya, everyone!!!!!

LOL Hi Dachef
Dachef - LOL!!!!!!!
Hi mm
I was just about to type 'Hello' when I read Dachef's post and laughed too much to do anything. Morning all!
Hiya, FMitch......in case you were wondering, I 've chosen RoboCop as my icon 'cos it's Peter Weller's birthday today......
Hey Jac the grids are getting bigger and bigger! Thank you mm, was wondering.
no its snot
last night I had a dream that todays grid was 279. Only one out. How freaky is that?
FMitch - That's what I said when I saw the grid, 'Is he working up to a 600+ one, or what??'
morning everyone! anyone had any luck with that se9?
its snot getting bigger
I haven't, cehess......
Hi guys, i'm bak!
se/9 is a slightly weird compound word
jamos - watch very carefully, put your nose up to the screen and the puzzle actually gets bigger and bigger, very slowly.........
it doent
c ya ppl gtg
buy
buy me a hotdog
I've been lurking, trying to find those eluding me.. not succeeding ^^ Thanks Kukana... once I figure out what the other word is, I'll be good to go!
Any further clues for that se9, Kukana?
c ya
I suppose someone who consumes the core of an apple would be a se/9
! lol.. thanks Kukana
se8 - a bird maybe.
Got it, ty Kukana!!!!!!
Little pop up of "doh!" over my head on that one I think
yw
You're quite correct, Jac......
can someone help me with ec4/6 and ec5/16??? Please!?
ecup
oops -dw it's not right
This grid is like being in a room full of people with weak bladders......there's too many p's!!!!!!!!
ec/4 is an obsolete Chaucer word that comes into Babble fairly often
ec5/16 = te6/27 sans the first letter.. have no idea how else to clue that, sorry
thanks guys - got them!
I see hurshy's got herself a little fan club inthe log!
Ooh! I finally got the se9! :D What a funny word it is.
Some cluez for the u's would be extremely helpful......
phantom word (Roger) Federer!
eu6/27, eu7/44? Anyone?? I'm in a bit of a pickle here!

ohhhh yes jamos was a rather odd newbie.
he REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to talk to you lol
oh and thanks ata :)
did you know there's a word inthe grid that means to stitch closed the eyes of a falcon. how the heck does the english language have a word for THAT?
ewwwwwwww, which one is it?
its an s4/4, sounds like a fluffy sea creature
fluffy sea creature... pufferfish?
that's just hideous. horrid English!
And all this time, whenever I 've seen that word in the grid, I've wondered what it meant......
fluffy sea mammal. white coats, get clubbed, big puppy eyes
ohhhhhhhhhh
icky
and now I really wish I hadn't looked it up ...

curiosity kills the cat ... will be content not knowing what words mean from now on!
Hey All, just dropping in to say Hi.
you're very welcome ;)
sorry. just had to share!
i'll survive (though the falcon may not)
Atalante - wierd spelling on that one!
yeah, poor falcons!
reminds me of what you do with an envelope
movieman, did you get some "k" clues?
Lickety, i sent you an e mail...
Yes I did, Une, still missing two of them though, I have ke4/8, ke5/18, ke6/33, ke6/30, ke6/30......
ke8 past tense the popcorn
and ke 4/11
Got 'em, ty Hursh.....
ty! I like that 4/11 k word--nifty
angelsong - I replied ;-) Thanks!
tear
oops
anybody have the last le (5/10)?
Hey Hurshy - Tell me what you think of Australians.
um...i think australians are lovely. i met a nice australian lady last week in a restaurant in rome
le + where birds live minus final consonant
ty une
Well glad to hear that! I stumbled upon something that indicated our history had a say in your opinion
di rien, hursh!
Can I just say, lickety, I've been pretty impressed with Australia's performances in the World Cup so far.....
oh no, i was just saying it as a fact, and for humor
er, DE rien
There are some great ads about the World Cup here - the title is 'Stuff History'
Good Morning All, can't find the ke4/11
i joke around a lot lickety...
lickety is a colonial boy! first fleeter!
moveiman - It's history in the making - never a goal, and 30 years since playing
rhymes with a soft foam ball toy
well now I've throughly disturbed you all, I'm going off for a nap avant le footie. au revoir tout le monde. a bientot!
hurshy - are you still in Italy?
a plus tard, Ata!
no i'm in france now
Thanks Une
I loved Rome myself - such a BUZZ!
yes, rome was good :)
In France - wow - Paris? I loved Paris too!
marseille at the moment, but paris later in the trip
i've been to paris before though - that's the one place we're going that i HAVE been to.
Sounds like a fast packed trip. How do you get time to Babble?
MrP: New Calendar is in the making, for Babble anniversaries (the date you joined babble)
i don't, mostly, lickety - i've only done yesterday and today...i've been making marseille a bit of a break from sightseeing and stuff - did laundry (by hand, in the tub)
I think I can offically call you a Babble Adict Hurshy! And there must be name for that - a BabHursh!
AngelSong - Cool!
Hurshy - It's hard to break away from I good thing!
hmm, i'm a bit puzzled over pa 7/36
You must have had withdrawls!
hursh--think John Wayne
hurshy, thinks john wayne, howdy pa*****
yeah, i mean mostly i've been to busy to really have withdrawal, but i do like this chance to do a couple puzzles
thanks guys - i thought of that before and then forgot to try it!
Good Evening All how is the trip Hurshy
lol
it's good tiny
I am glad you are having such a good time
thanks :)
This virtual world of Babble is wonderful! So many friends, so much fun, and also such a challenge!
yes :)
Hey Angelsong how do you get the date people joined?
i think we each have to put in our own, is that right angel?
click on the icon, lickety
ea5/12 anyone??
that rabbit is floppy ea5/12
ea5/12 ea + a color
thanks tuco and hurshy!
my my, sounds like a major traffic jam
Pam - 2004 - I'm impressed!
LOL--lickety
old timer
The icon theme calendar has been updated thru the end of July.
I used to be more silent here, as I jusggle this, work, and a volunteer organization I am in that is virtual, so it can get a wee bit confusing
hmphy, clue for pe8/55?
I have some of them from profiles already, hurshy...but go ahead and put them in in case I miss some
Lately, though, I have felt like popping in. That and here in MA, World Cup can be very popular, but not generally in the States, so it is cool that this group is into it
pe8 & 9 convince
lickety, if you are pro, it's in your profile!
ahhh, well i don't remember the exact date anyway and the general time was in my profile
ooh how lovely. thanks mrp
finally done with p's
only 21 cp words to go...good grief
anyone have the second re9? I've got the one that means practiced...
Grace - those who use microwaves......
prepared leftovers, grace....
I can't believe I only joined in November last year - but that is 7 months I suppose. Wow - my life has changed since I found Babble - Certainly! I live and breath Babble - yet I don't even play the game. How Wierd!
doh! and I had the 8 too... thx!
people who prepare leftovers, more precisely.
re6/24?
oh nvm, i didn't think of going the other way
re 6/24 gained the benefit of
I have an re6/24 meaning to employ again
Lickety, you are an integral part of the site. That's a simple fact.
I never planned to be. One sunday I just thought - hmmm, this is a challenge.... and then I worked it out and every week I keep working on it. I get alot of satisfaction out of it too!
re6;24 if you have used it once and you use it again you re*** it
puzz puzz...what comes between re 4/5 and 5/12...? hmmm
Angelsong - thanks for your comment - it's part of my satisfaction I suppose.
Thanks for the chat - Good luck with the grid. I'm off like a prawn in the sun!
Hursh have you got the 4:5
Lickety--while I don't go to the list, I see your name here all the time, with great joy and gratitude--you should be proud!
yes, and clearly i need to add 2 letters to that, but...what?
I thought I had all the 8 and 9 but seem to be missing a pa8...
a vowel then a consonant
aha - i see
pa8 past of the pitter pa**** of little feet
then add one more
ah! past tenses always elude me!
re6/21 return to sender address unknown
no such number...no such zone
LOL Hurshy
we had a quarrel... a lovers' spat... i write "i'm sorry" but my letter keeps coming back (doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)
you remember all the words
LOL
oh...erm...yes, i have a pretty good memory for lyrics
tiny try not to use words from the grid in your clues, thanks
I did not think I had and I just looked back through the log
I was actually giving Hurshy a clue
return to se****, sometimes they sneak in
lol, poor tiny... and i had that one anyway :)
Thanks I did not have that one Bless you
woohoo, fireworks before my 24 hours of access is over! :) :)
cheers tiny, hurshy, as usual, rocks the grid
Congrats Hurshy
i had forgotten how very quickly babble can go when you DO use the list until this vacation :)
te6/18?
I have the re9/66 and pe9/72 what do the other 9's start with please
te 6/18 plural sea bird
there's another re9, an se9, and...
Hurshy not fair I only have 56 and have not looked at Lickety's list yet
oh yeah, pa9
Hurshy can you clue for se/9 please
Have the pa8/50 is the pa9 along the same lines
well tiny, how long ago did you get on? i babbled for a bit this morning and just used the list now to finish up
yes peri, i mean it's not etymologically related but there is only one extra letter thrown in
I have only been on a short time today as I went to a wedding
hurshy is the extra letter a vowel or consonant
consonant
hurshy, nm , I just found it
may I have a clue for the se9 please
well there you go then tiny :) there's no point in competing on time of day when you complete the puzzle, since we're all in diff time zones and stuff
120 more to go... I refuse to use a list till I'm down to the 100 mark!
the se9 is a compound word... a kind of animal... the word would be parallel to herbivore, carnivore, etc
my hotel room here in marseille is so pretty, and there is such a lovely breeze blowing in on me at the moment
thanks hurshy, got it right away with your clue, glad you are having a good time
have 125 words, including all of the 9's time for a break, bbl
cheers, peri
oh golly.
hi everyone, Hurshy! Having a good time?
yes thanks :) enjoying my pretty room and breeze at the moment :)
sounds wonderful :)
it is. today has been nice and restful.
te5/16?
just staring rrrrr - dont have it yet
the first 5 books of the bible are the penta*****
te5/16 - certain book sof the Bible are called the pentat6
Hurshy, where are you? I gather, not at home.
whew! 182 words down, I'm getting a list!
phone be back
oh, i'm in marseille at the moment. i'm on a Grand European Tour.
i'm eating a baguette
Great -- we're off to "cruise" on the Volga next month from St. Petersburg to Moscow. Doubt that I will have any access to a computer. Bon Apetit
wow, so many plurals, er, ers, ed... this is going to be a long one ;)
good morning, everyone
if i lived in france i would be enormously fat, i would eat so many croissants. i think they have a pact, you have to swear an oath when you become a french baker that you will never give away the secret to making really good croissants, because even the best bakeries in the US don't seem to match up
It's the beure beure beure
and hurshy....arent the baguettes a unique flavour even??
new calendar is up. all that remains is to add the information, and that can be done as needed.
oh hurshey, croissants!! i just gained 5 lbs. by typing the word. ummmm
hmm, i don't know, i think the baguettes are pretty similar to french bread at home
I'm licking my fingers.
lol annie
oh really??..well maybe they are just different to here
lol..all this talk of france and i found the french for peach
i have had even more trouble than usual with wanting to put in french words now that i'm here!!
Is you Grand European tour going to cover more than France?
yes we have already been to rome and venice, now we're doing the riviera/provence, then barcelona and madrid, then the west coast of france and paris, then amsterdam, then england.
By train, boat or car or plane?
oh hurshy...the peaches in provence... you must get to a fruit market
we got to rome by plane of course but we are training the rest of it, it's great!
Eurailpass?
yes ARB
heres a question....how can the top right corner 't' reach something the 't' before it cant?
Enjoy, Hurshy. The weather gets a little worse the farther north you go, but you'll get to some great museums.
well rolin, it's with an unlikely past tense.
so it is a te...or a ta?
ahhh
nooo
does that mean you got it?
nope...
it's a te
past tense of what i thought was a mere noun...
cheers
can anyone clue ad7/36 for me please?
which one?
either more ad5 or pl ad6
ad 7/36 plural of ad 6/24. Stick to
i just noticed i have bruised my knee considerably whilst doing laundry in the tub
thanks guys, didnt see the plural
kukana, what's your flag?
I've heard of washerwoman hands but not washerwoman knees!
Cyprus
te 6/27?
ack, i already had 7/36 stick to. i need the other
the other one is ad5/14, only more so
te 6/25 past tense of a word the dictionary doesn't allow!
cyprus, neato!
lol ARB that is almost word for word what i was going to say
chers arb, didnt know it was a word
it's really a variation of a similar sounding word with an extra t in it!
cyprus is hot and humid at present, Hurshy!
50 yers ago my husbandf studied engineering at a what was loveingly called a te-- institute, so I find it amusing that the enable dictionary does not include it.
anyone got ae5/12? its got me stumped
ae 5/12 is the scientific word for a mosquito
and it sounds like an unaspirated greek underworld
ty
cyprus may be hot and humid but i like that we are getting babblers from more and more places around the world :)
and different time-zones!
lol, yes, many different time zones
it's half-past four in the afternoon here
soory guys - still having trouble with te6/27, any more clues??? PLEASE!!!!!
9:30 am here on the east coast, USA
half 2 here :)
Hurshy, did you notice that there are different people babbling at other times in the day. I was in the US for 3 weeks and saw a whole different group of names
so what is 'babble-time' where it's 8.30am?
That's midwestern United States -- Chicago time
???
yes i saw a bunch of people this morning that i didn't know
bexie dear, i'm on IM if you like
ooooo
te 6 is difficult to clue, but it's t + e5/16 if that's any help
why can't I get this ad6/24? I think a nice flounder may be in my future.
Sorry, RRRRR . te + mispelled word for a backyard structure (4/7) or a misspelled word fr what dogs and cats do with their hair
GraceM, ad + the word for in this place
YES!! Thanks Kukana and ARB!!!
cripes! I knewit... pass the sturgeon please.
i just can't get ar 5/10
a+re4/4 = ar5/10
ar + a word that sounds like feeding oneself
Same Calphoon!! I'm having so much trouble with that one!
ar + French word for summer
Or as Hurshy can tell you, ar + French for summer
Got ARB!
arete?
DOH!
my phanthom word du jour: parched
Hurshy, how's your knee?
my phantom words: french and peach
Annie--mine are cheered and learned
Pat, I see you are online - how are you feelling today?
no bodily functions today, i hope
my knee is ok, just bruised...i mean, it will take a few days for a bruise to go away
Hope it won't hinder your trotting around the countrywide.
countryside, that is
no no, it's not a big deal at all, just funny
hurshy, next time you wash clothing in a tub, kneel on a folded towel or such. hope you dont mind motherly nagging
Good idea Anniebrook
the second te4/4 on lickety's list anyone?
te 4/4 nipple
annie - thanks for the tip... dunno if i'll have to do it again or not, but it is good advice :)
that was a gd one ARB! your great at clues!

Are there any eu words today?
2 eu words musicmom
thanks shutterbugy
they are 6 and 7 letter words
I found them. But that didn't help with the e I was working on. Thanks again!
Hey, I like that! that is cute musicmom. (Shutterbugy)
LOL --- my fabulous typing skills at work. What can I say?
But it IS cute, dont you think?
It is VERY cute! Maybe I'll just call you that from now on. Especially in light of today's icon theme.
what is the icon theme today?
first ne4/5 anyone?
doh...nevermine
VW Bugs
Mine is a banana bug<G>
Cute. My brother LOVES those kind of cars.
I really do too, but they aren't practical for hauling lots of children around.
Yes, and we have 10 children.
Wow 10! I only have 2 but I also have 7 surrogate daughters in Girl Scouts
only 9 kids live at home now though.
That is still amazing! Does everyone have their job to help someone younger than themself?
we all help each other.
That is soo cool. My husband's parents both come from huge families (9 and 13 respectively). I love the idea of it but I don't think I'm enough woman to mother that many
PUNCH BUGGY! (Two for flinching!)
LOL Judi --- my kids play that in the car all the time. There is a VW dealer near my mom's house. Sarah loves to beat on her daddy as we go by.
how about pt words? Are there any?
hello everyone! can someone id the nines?
LOL Judi obviously hasnt worked her way to the pu words today
hello TO
Not me TO. I don't have any yet.

Every time I settle down to babble today I get interupted, such is life.
hey evanonut!
hi nut
I hate when that happens Mitch. Especially when I don't anticipate it happening.

Evanonut - I just started reading To the Nines. I love Lula's diet plans. Cracking me up!
Good Morning, Babblers!
hi jai!
morning jaianniah
mm - her latest is her best yet

could i have clues for the eu's please?
Is it in the Plum series or another one of hers?
Rolin - eu6 is the card game
the plum series - twelve sharp
I thought I had found the eu7 but I was wrong.
Hi, 72, MM! How are you doing with this puzzle? I think it is a fun one...but tricky...so many words so similar.
Cool! Our library has up through 11. I check them out two at a time. So I have 9 and 10 this week.
PHAH!!..there is a second 'u'...thx
I am doing great. This is my first pass - no list and I have 162 words already.
i should make you an honorary nut mm
hello'
hey harpie
If I read without babbling and interruption I can read them in a day
Holy Cow, MM, you are a whiz! I still need the list <Jai and her crutch>
LOVE them. I find myself reading parts of the dialogue out loud to my husband.
musicmom..the eu7 is the card cgame past tense
See I thought that but couldn't get it to go. I'm trying again.
back, does janet evanovich have a new book?
Morning Jai--morning babblers all. I've plunged in (listless at the moment) Hey musicmom. have a good day
Thanks Rolin - I got it this time. I must have mistyped something. My e6 partner and I know that past tense well.
hi hetty, hi jaia, hi evan
Hi, Annie!
well nut you have piqued my interest...i think i will head to the library today
hello, hey, hi, hola, bonjour, and wassup!
took ya long enough owl - get one for the money
Wassup is this "tricksy" puzzle (a la Gollem)!
*still outing at her lukewarn greeting - lack of ! * maybe...
Nut - what is the name of the Plum Christmas book? It was hilarious. I listened to it on my cassette player. (whew avoided using a word)
I said Hi, 72, didn't you see?
(((TO)))
hope the title isn't in the puzzle, "visions of sugar plums"
i am directing that at nutty buddy - sorry!
*hmph* - well owl, if you're going to be so mikey-esque
That's right! Loved it.
LOL! god forbid! LOL!

good morning everyone! it's 9:53am Central Time; who's ready for some cheetos?
Fun to be here with everyone today.
hi sherbie
music, e + item to use to attach things to one another===== also, i believe it is a warehouse too
ewwwwwwww, cheetos
Thanks Annie.
anyone have the up words?
ty jai! that's it! scout's mom - hi! still eatin ny breakfast of champion - little chocolate donuts and yohoo
Now it is GREY ---- ahhhhhhhhhhh
Scoutsmom, when I went to bed, you were on, eating Cheetos...Are you having them for breakfast as well?
I hate blocks that only have 1 word that I can grey out right away.
mm - i love those blocks!!!
must get into the shower, later!
Nope don't have the up words. but thanks for letting me know there are some.
i need one more word to reach 200
*creases forehead* ...what is 'mikey-esque'?
* that should have said CAN'T grey out right away. I like to feel like i'm accomplishing something.
No...I wasn't eating cheetos; I believe that was renfield. I was laughiing so hard I had to log off so as not to spit wine on the laptop. I think it was my comment of "cheetos...is there anything they can't do?" that started it.
a word that rhymes with "Laos" and reminds me of bulls...?
Go TO Go!
mikey-esque = extremely needy and oversensitive, a regular case of pms
32 words left but I'm exhausted!
LOL evanonut. Is he still around? I haven't seen him since I got back from vacation.
whoa grace - i bet!

Guess I have to go to the lists--cant find ce's, I'm one 5 and 2 6's missing. Any hints?
Sure...hold on...
I've got all the ce... let me look
do you have the ce that sounds likethe type of tree but spelled differantly?
I have to say since Lickety did his list and Angelsong made her page -- I hardly ever go to bab anon any more.
do you have the tree and alt spelling?
and then make sure you do have the type of tree
Music - I always heard the guys at work talking about going home to play with the box the babies come in but I never heard of giving homemade gifts LOL
The ce*** tree said da** 'cause he hadn't had rain in weeks- put those twowords together.....a tricksy clue! LOL
Yes, thanks Grace. also the one built from them with an "n"
Then there's the Civil War word, shortened...
Thanks Jai - I had missed that one
BabAnon is worth a visit for the other things that get posted there... there's an interesting thread about using lists vs going listless...
Great clue, jai, but that's one i have already.
plural it
is it working now?
NOPE
I'll have to check it out. I used to go over just to read the various threads. but recently I haven't had much time to play around so I do the grid and go.
then there's a word that sounds like "serrate"
I wanna see Rolin's icon :(
and serious
rlin - get it while it's there and ty!
anagram the "serious" one...
OH Rolin that's the one that I saved from a week or so ago LOL I LOVE IT LOL
ops--civil war? I have the beginning of breakfast food, pluralized
Thanks, got the serrate-sounding one
SC ce***ed from the Union...
thank you, rolin! i can have my own button made up for musikfest to go with the no whining one!
Hilarious - rolin. I can see it little on your posts but no matter how many times I refesh I still get the old one. Oh well.
then there's the Fr. word for "this" like "ce** chair"
yup, ta, didn't past tense it
its one of several i got in an email...i have them all displayed in the faculty (all women) office...
mm - click on the icon and you should see the other one.
but past tense doesn't fit
these plural and tenses are going to be a real challenge today
Rolin would email it to me?:
well MM...you have your own copy now...
Nope not working. Thanks! I'm going to print it and hang it in my sewing room.
sure faerie..hangon
Oh Thanks :)
and neither does the French for this
That's my word for the wise today- add ed to everything- as well as don't make my l=mistake and gett all the words BUT the root word...LOL!
Famous Jai typos strike again!
Wow Ro that was fast. My email just dinged and it was from you! thanks again.
sounds like *** of dishes
Okay 108 words left. I'm going to take a break and listen to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me on the radio. I need to do the grocery shopping too and then I'll be back!
okay, i'm back!
*blush*..mm..what can i say..i have a reputation for speed...lol
Have fun, MM!
did i miss anything goood?
ok faerie...its on the way
Thank You Rolin I also got it thanks :)
I just clued most of the "ce" words- but many of the clues didn't work, so I am going to have to rethink them....
i cannot see how ther can be 50 'p' words..*sigh*
sherb--thanks for telling us about that chat
jaia - maybe proper definitions??? ;-)
re6/24 anyone?
or re7/32?
9 words to go!!!
it's a good one, pam ...
yeah, just read through it...
7 more!
Jai, I think your clues for thece words are very hlpful--after much hair-pulling--so thankis again I NOW HAVE ALL BUT THE LAST CE6
Jai, I think your clues for thece words are very hlpful--after much hair-pulling--so thankis again I NOW HAVE ALL BUT THE LAST CE6
the tree; the tree with the chopped-off chair letter; conce** give in; plural it; thr tree, spelled wrong....plural it....plural the concession word....word sounding like "serrate"....word start of what everyone is eating right now.....add past tense to that....word sounds like "serious".....anagram that word....word sounds like *** of dishes...that's them alll....
i like the list vs listless thread
makes me think i have to be more clear when I say things, so as not to insult or posture
I guess it must be what sounds lkike a set of dishes, but dont see it---
don't worry about it pam... those who posture are pretty easy to spot...
ce+ anagram the end of set...there!
LOL--thanks
sherb, well said.
un7 anyone?
i had to look up posture, only knew the bodily definition
i just read the listless thread too...i didnt realise there was such a philosophical problem... i just thought this was a great game to play...with great people to chat to....i must be such a simple mind...lol
I just know I have said that I don't use the lists, and all I mean is that I don't, literally, go back and forth--too much work for me. Plus , i am addictive, so if I start, I won't stop til I am done. this works better for me--get as many as i can, offer clues on chat if i have the words and play
the tree that fell in the forest when no one was around was un*****...
its the oldposture v. pasture debate. i.e. should those whoposture be sent out to pasture?
Grace - something unconventional would be said to be un***** of...
nice, jai!
cool beans...why didn't I see that?
4 to go!
pam, me thinks its not directed at you.
hey is dachef still here, or did the girl talk send him scurrying?
the feeling is that it is directed at the boastful.
Please jai, what do you mean by "the end of set"?
Go, Grace...what r they?
evan--thanks, I thought not. But, it is a good reminder for me to look at how what I say is read
oh, rolin... such an innocent...
mm-sorry, I had to go for a minute. they are wild turkeys, a rarity in the middle of town! (even in Montana!)
re5/12 and re7/32 and re6/24.
and since I am a member of a couple of virtual communties, it is a good reminder!
Harp --- I thought that's what they were. The neighboring county has a wild turkey festival each May
If I finish, this will be my longest ever!
may i change the subject and get some people upda4/5s?
the end of the spelling of the word "set"- switch the letters around....it would look like this:ste
gotta go, bbl
got the re7
You can do it Grace! Go go gooog gooooooooooo
bye jane!
Goodnight Everyone I am off to bed as it is 1:30 am here 132 words
bye, tiny!
nighto tiny
Nitey- nite, tiny!
anyone seen babbler lately?
Good morning/afternoon all. Is the grid still yummy or has it lost its savour?
I'm going to have to go read that thread. I am a no list if I have time to meander through the grid. Definite list if I want to just do it quickly. It is kind of like chess or speed chess. Different but one not better than the other.
i haven't seen babbler in FOREVER
Haz I am loving this grid. So much so, that i said I was leaving but I haven't.
TO ...i did..a coupl of days ago
re5/12 or re6/24...anyone?
I had to leave this morning because of shopping, but have been looking forward to getting back!
no, I'd like to see Babs...
O'K Jai, I guess I don't have thesame grid as you do. It won'ttake either anageram, and in any cast the word I seek has 6 letters, not 5. So we'll stop there and try again later, thanks
Grace do you have the one that is to put into service again?
and how is she? she hasn't been on much - at least when i have...please say hello to her for me
Haz - I really need to go do the shopping. 25 more minutes and then I have to.
welcome back Haz :)
TO Babbler was on sudoku ealier arranging a time and place to meet up with hurshy when she comes to London next month.
yes, got that one
she said that shes been really busy...and that was why she hasnt been online for a while
brb....have to get something to eat.....Grace, when you handle something again, you re*** it....then past tense
that is the only re5/12 I have
and do you see miya? i miss her but at her age she needs to do other things...and i hope that is why we do not see her
they would have to put a nice grid out today when my oldest nephew is getting married. I wonder if they would mind if i took a laptop to the service?
time to garden in the drizzle...see you all tonight
i miss miya too - she livens things up
got the re5... need only the re6/24!
Bye Pam
bye pam :)
then again owl, you're only what??? 23
HAven't seen Miy in ages but I think she got to the age when the real world (and boys) seem a lot more intersting...!
miya is fine...getting crazier as we go along...
ta ta pam
lol ungagain - you can quit anytime you want to...bye pam!
You mean babble isn't the real world?
LOL Unc. Can you do it on your cell phone?
LOL Haz, welcome back.
hmm, sure I can quit . anytime, anytime at all, or after a couple more words anyway
i heard about the babblemeet
DONE!!
wow, grats
BRAVO Grace!!! I knew you could do it!!!! WHHOOOHOOO
yay for grace!
what are the numeric counts for the up words?
thx all!
Congratulations Grace :D &*&*&*&*&*&* FIREWORKS *&*&*&*&*&*&

Congrats Grace!
grace: is the up a prefix for grid words?
yes TO they are. up + a t word
and the plural
ty!
twice, TO only...
sorry, that was obvious...
got it! and with 211 i will leave to get some shopping done before the next storm! bye and happy babbling!
i'm thinking it's not too early for sun chips
not me nut - i gained a pound overnight
It is NEVER too early for sunchips evanonut
and frankly, it's a Babble word to me because when I cry, my te*** don't go up!
BYE TO --- good seeing you today
no! wow owl, that's fast!!!
yes music mom - nice grid, nice company, nice chat today!
so you want one of those sugar cookies then??? you leaving owl???
nut: i am only 5'1'' hence the consternation about being 120...
It's just water retention to
I'm only 5' 1" and 120 sounds good to me<G>
i used to be 103...
owl, i'm 5"3' - and 150
well, now a good strong gust of wind won't blow you away
ok - i will leave now...this is not a good subject...but health (family) reasons make it unwise to be too much
okay owl, later tonight perhaps???
LOL TO --- have a great day. See you later maybe
bye Temple :)
yes maam- after my date
ooooooh, you'd better come backnow
gotta hear about this date
although i have been stood up before
THat's terrible TO.

Happy to see you Mamabear

thanks FMitch!!!! Good to see you too - how have you been?
This has been quite a fun grid today, lots of words, but many of the biggies were reasonably easy to find......
Very well, thanks mama. but these big grids are daunting!
Yes - I ususally don't even think about starting one over 150 - haven't done one in weeks. I guess I weakened at midnite on this one!!!!
mama's weakness is our gain
good luck, I got to 162 but this is me done for the day.

good job Ouwachita!
wow. just noticed how many c's I haven't got ...
yay Ouw!
lots of P words...
woo, just found the pe9... Roger Moore and Tony Curtis...
I'm having a flashback....
flashback to..?
I can hear the theme tune already!! Actually I bought it as a single many moons ago.
Sunday evenings... The Saint, Danger Man, The Prisoner, The Pe9s.....
The television series in which they appeared together. Seventies big ties/medallions
oh. gotcha. I've never watched tv... so i'm a bit clueless
medallions!!! lol
Never watched TV? Selective viewing fine but never?!?!?!
All that chest hair had to be decorated.
well, never is extreme... I've seen it, but it hasn't ever interested me . . . and my parents didn't allow much anyway
it has literally been 15 years though.
Wow, so it it Radio and newspapers for keeping in contact with the world?
FMitch - I have a CD with theme tunes from the 60s and 70s... my favourite is the theme to The Protectors, sung by Tony Christie (I know, I know...)
Tony Christie had a great voice.
Mostly Internet, now =)
As soon as I posted spec I thought of that!! LOL sherb
In the Avenues and Alleyways................
I'm hearing it in my head.
Hi Sherb - just read your profile - my husband is from Muswell Hill - said there is a good Italian restaurant in Primrose Hill, but he can't remember the name...
Casa Mansi?
hi Krista :) ...there's a few... does he remember if it's in the village itself?
Primrose Hill, Whitestone Pond, Vale of Health, Kenwood, Belsize Park Gardens, Hampstead (as a village) all my memories from over 40 years ago.
Chalk Farm Station...actually, it was an ice cream shop that sold food as well? Marine Icees? Not actually in PH, he says now.
I was very young when we moved honest!
I love Marine Ices... great pizzas... and ice cream...
it's just over the bridge from the village... I'm on the other side of the hill, going north towards England's Lane...
Yep, that's it. Mmm...I think he is getting homesick. I haven't been to England yet. But I watch Most Haunted every Friday. :) Kreed Kafer!
hey everybody, FMitch... who else is here?
What is the theme of the day, and how is that decided?
Hi bostonmaid
I think the theme today is VW Bugs, but I don't see many...
Babbler maintains the list of themes... people just suggest them and she adds them to the list... you can look up her profile (go to 'Rankings' and Ctrl-F Babbler)... :)
where actually is Primrose Hill? I've never quite worked that out?
Some of us are too lazy to change every day....
imagine Regent's Park and it's directly north of that...
hey sherb, how do we suggest them? should we email her?
okay, i've change - now i feel better
ah right!
mermaid - yes, you can email her or catch her on the chat log, but she hasn't played much recently
sherb...just read back on the chat...marine ices..is that o the way to camden market?
yes, it is... just a few minutes walk from the market...
*nodding*.... thats what i thought...my partner pointed it out...but we hvent been to camden for ages...might be just the thingto do tomorrow...and end up at marine ices in the afternoon
Hi everyone! Back with "new eyes" to tackle a few more on this monster grid
I dont know north london that well till you get further out - we used to live in Grange Park (up near Enfield)
hey musie!
oh I love Camden Town!
Hubby said there was a chocolate dessert they sold with a rum flavor that he loved...ugh...off to neighborhood yard sale...kids leaving without me!
great idea, rolin... another good place to go is Lemonia restaurant in Primrose Hill village, if you like Greek food... you can follow the canal to get to the village...
chocolate rum dessert...mmmmm
i love greek food... im writing it down ...
sherb...do you ever get over to bounds green..?
haven't been that way for a while... but I have a friend who lives there...
well...there is a greek restaurant there...WOW!!...looks like a kebab house from out front...but i have never been served such a HUGE mezze in my life...i could have stopped after 3 courses...but there were 5..!
hello all... here for a few while I rest between garden chores... feeling so much better today that I (and all the boys) are out in the garden :-)
the food was great...and very reasonable..its called.....'Vrisaki ' in myddleton rd
hi stid
hi stid...doing a few here before i start painting ceilings
glad you're feeling better
good recommendation, thanks :) ...maybe I should visit my friend...
lo...what a nice idea...
wow...something on the news about the kenwood concerts being in trouble..
hi stid, hows things
hi everyone
Scout's home! I'm out until naptime...later, everyone!
Glad the stid family is enjoying the garden this beautiful day. Ours is a riot of colour-all the roses suddenly in blooom, and the quails back under the wistaria--
hi featherbee, I am glad, too! hi oggy! lovely weather, can't complain. :-)
I just saw that clip too rolin - probably going to say that local neighbours are cmplaining about the noise!!
*arched eyebrow*...well if that is it...they need to get a life...tho i bet its more about the parking..
any hints for *any* of the 4 U words originating in the top row U?
oooh. someday I will have a wisteria. or two. or ten. I love how the flowers droop down! most of my roses are blooming too -- even the one that I dug up and left sitting on the ground...
we hear the fireworks on Saturday nights when the concerts are on
hi stid, feather, scout, hetty, mitch, boston
k, gotta go paint, bbl
later feather, don't overdo! {{hug}}
but they are sooo lovely...ive only been twice...and had such a good time
hi mymuse!
un+ past tense of one of your senses
hetty - you have painted a descriptive pic there - got a digital camera?
hi mymuse! what's new?
oooh, thanks mymuse!!
what!!??
not too much boston, gloomy day here...how about you?
mermaid -- what sort of shell is in your icon? It resembles a limpet, but it much prettier than the ones in our waters.
it is the noise...and parking....
it is a pretty shell
why do I always think that "hend" should be a word?
yup - there you go noise is the main bug bear then parking 2nd at Kenwood.
how can they call it noise......its music...
stid... I'll have to look it up, I can't remember just now...but isn't it exquisite?
omg....westlife and abba are offonsive now...lmao
absolutely, mermaid! I really enjoy seeing the different types of shells from around the world. actually, I guess I am like so many of us babbleholics -- no subject is to obscure or strange!
What sort of music is it?
Well rolin given some of the line up they just mentioned maybe not. It always used to be classical - but would you like WestLife at that decibel level?
haz..its always a range...concerts from folk...jazz...classical..pop(soft)
hi haz!
Hello mymuse!
mmmmm.... its just pop...its not like its heavy metal or grunge..
fmitch; yes I have a digital camera, trouble is i cant figure how to get images into the bio page. Maybe one of my smart this-age kids can help me.
Maybe it's the volume of the music that is the problem.
Celebrated artist Art Garfunkel will open the summer season, with highlights including the legendary Simple Minds, Ronan Keating, Bryn Terfel, Jools Holland, Westlife, Classic FM Four Seasons & Fireworks, the unmissable Last Nights and A Tribute to Dirty Dancing!
Oh do see ifyou can get one of them to help you hetty would so love to see the quails and wisteria.
Well, I have to say that most of that would appeal to me!
Does anyone have a chambered nautilus?
theres no change on the website yet about which 2 concerts have been cut
I don't have one, but have seen them in museums, hetty -- they are fascinating.
missing one P, and 128 other words... time for margaritas... back later :)
we saw jools holland sitting back on the grass...supping munchies...
Bye sherb, enjoy your break.
hetty, I think you have to put them up on the web somewhere, and then point to the image using html. I can help you with the html ... and the putting them up on the web if you haven't got your own webspace
Bye sherb
we were supping...he was playing..lol
and I've got a few nautilii
cya sherb
later sherb!
phantom word: cadre
thanks Jen34, your phantom word led me to one of my favorite trees...
au5/12??
well i better go think about dinner... cya later all..*s*
anytime, stid! :)
bye rolin!
bye rolin!
nut - you still there?
hi stid!
*jump* {{{{MAMABEAR}}}}
LOL stid!!!!!
au+ Sunday was the day of ***t in the Creation story, steph
so glad to see you here! where you been? :-)
ty mymuse!
au5/12 add the first part of the song * * * P E C T.
hey stid I think the species name is springeri, but I can't swear to it... and you're right about us Babblers. I sense that most of us are the sort who get fascinated by diverse subject matter... from Roman aquaducts to seashell formation to language to... you name it!!
yw steph
hey Stid.... passed your message along to munner the other day, she came on after you left
been working and such! I haven't babbled in weeks!!! Was up late last nite and weakened at the flip and started this one!
going for the list with 140 done, and 140 to go.
lol mamabear, this game is hard to resist
thanks Mymuse :-)
Mamabear -- isn't that four-letter word banned in babble? LOL
stid, which word?
yes it is!!! wish I could avoid it! I have 88 left and thnking it ain't gonna happen. Too nice a day outside today!
that crazy W word... *shudder*
its BEAUTIFUL outside
Oh, thats one. Yes it is banned!
hi nut! it's beautiful here, too. Good gardening day -- work two hours in the cooler morning, then rest for a few hours, then work again in the evening.
just pulled some determined weeds out myself
these phantoms are driving me crazy today; I've tried to type in "serene" three times now
good for you, nut! on my way in just now, I saw a four-foot tall thistle which is no more... it was hiding in the elderberry trees!
why oh why can't I find Cs today!!
gorgeous day here too, nut! will soon be floating in the pool with a beverage of choice and the CD player accompanying me while I sing!
I'm sure if I type it enough times, it will suddenly be accepted
I think a lot of the words are really hard today. I am about to grab the list...
there are a ton of ce's, atalante
no pool here, got a couple puddles left from the storms though...
yep. going to the list. BRB
I haven't looked at it or printed it yet and I need 80 still. Quite unusual for me! due to laziness - I have to take the computer into another room to connect to the printer
my phantom word is centaur jen lol!
good for you, mamabear :)
Oh, please send me your pool!!!!!!
I need 84 more, guess I need the list also
ours isnt ste up yet.
lol, muse
why isn't redate a word?
or, "sured"?
I know, tried that one too
redate Is a word, thanks!
but yet re "yes, my de**" works. I don't get it
yes, it worked for me too!
I needed that one.
oops
lol exactly
the question is why isnt redare a word?
I guess I meant that word with er at the end.
that one works, too, mamabear
no, jenn, redare does not work
not on my grid, jen
oops, sorry, I meant the one from earlier -- 12:18
I'm suffering from chat lag
okay, and back. I have 154 words to go, and feeling a bit sluggish...
78 left and about to call it a day
dont worry stid, I still need 133
80 left, trying to catch you mamabear
Mamabear, that is really good progress, esp with no list!
Considering you haven't babbled in a while, you've done really well mamabear. BUt it is a fun grid!
at least I know I'm sadly deficient in the ce department
yes - it is fun, but now a bit frustrating
I am not worried shutterbug! I have decided to stop worrying about finishing unless I get really close from now on. I made my goal of being in the top scorers on the 30-day list a couple days in a row this week, and now am playing only when it's fun.
monkey typed a lot of the ce's
does anyone know what the e word is that comes from the 5th column, the e under the t? please
so many of the ce's are babblets
Then now is the time to quit! If you've enjoyed it up to now, don't let it be a chore.
don't have that one yet, mamabear
me either
I think the e word is e + ta 4
et5/12 - e plus a method of recording
how many ce's are there pls.?
yes it is inge, ty
or et + er 4
that's it! thanks inge!
ty, haz and inge!!
You're welcome.
maybe I'll be satisfied if I only finish the 8's and 9's. Would anyone mind me bothering you for clues?
rolin, there are 14 ce's
no problem, back under cover for the last 39...
I just meed one more ce word.
Go ahead, mamabear I'll happily clue the ones I have.
then I'm done the ce's not all the words
*waiting patiently for scraps from mamabears clues*
ch8 = one who copies on tests
thx jen...ive got 12....*off to hunt for two more*
Thanks haz - I have the pa 9 and a pe 9 and a re 9 that is warm
go, shutterbug and rolin!
how many ced's?
LOL stid!
Please Haz do you have the eu6?
se9/60 someone who ingests things that plants grow from
I have seven ced's so far
re9/60 pl of warming again
eu6 is a very strange word! Add the first three letters of yuletide, then the second vowel.
pe8/55 get some one to agree with you...and the pe9 is someone who does this
thenks rolin
haz...its a card game
ty rolin, didn't have that one
pa9 means textured
have the warm one and the pe 8 & 9 - thanks for the se 9 rolin. I need one more.
one more 9 that is
Yes, I saw it posted earlier on as that rolin, but have never heard of it. An innocent life I've led.....
What is most strange about your clue, Haz, is I don't see what the synonym for yuletide is!
have that one too
do you have the ch9 mamabear?
cedate
lol haz...dont hang round with me too much then...no telling where youll end up...
i so didn't just do that.....
i dont mymuse
nope - no ch 9
nope - no ch 9
thanks CadFan! I didn't have that one yet :-)
December 25 is a particular day - first three letters of that, hetty. (This is not a good clue!)

That word is actually a card game -- my family and I play it all the time.

Thanks Haz & stid, but I cant see how to get to a "c" from the "u"
I've got my net ready . . .
no there is no plural mama.
not a plural - a past tense
funny thing, I had just gotten the eu--kept starting with the wrong e and the wrong u
I have to remember to look at the WHOLE grid, LOL

hi Leslie!
i see you stuck with it today mama :)
I clued that too stid... union and confe****** soldiers
oh dear, I guess I need a different 8... just a sec...
Yeah, Leslieann...... it isn't too bad today even though it's big. But now it's a struggle
Hi Leslie...thought you were going to use that lobster VW
I need 2 more k's - have all 5 that start with the same 4 letters of the corn seed
*shock*....i just got yelled at by a cold caller!!!
how rude, rolin!!!!!
one rhymes with feudal slave
oh shoot didn't think of that... although this one was labeled "bug in flowers" so i thought that was funny enough
Hey, hetty? I have almost caught up with you in the rankings on how many points I have!
that's just wrong, rolin
i+ said i didnt want to change my mobile network and he snapped back..'why you no want it'....exCUSE me??
lol
ar5/10?
rolin that's when you "click" buh bye
rolin, have you heard the tape of the guy who tried to cancel his aol service and got yelled at? it is awful
feudal slave.... fuedal slave....fuedal slave.... nope
oh yehah...honestly...its just getting beyond a joke...and its all from off shore...
feudal slave rhymes with ocean board ridiing waves
I never look at those rakings, shutterbug, but I'm flattered tombe ahead of you. Today after 2 hours I have only 100 words and am uite disvcouraged. particularly after looking for fe8 in enable and finding phantoms like "fenestra" and "fernless" grrr
mama there are 6 k's with corn
a convoluted clue...but that's all this brain can come up with
*deep breath*...these are the 8's i have...what am i missing pls...ch..fe..ke..pa..pe..re x 2...
rolin' if you have fe8, please toss me a clue
I hardly ever look at them either, but just happened to see that you are oily a few ahead of me.
*only*
i think someone said union and con******** soldiers, hetty
oh that was clued earlier....one side of the civil war.. con********
6 k's with corn? cant believe it!
yay! i got the last 8 word I needed. :-) no I have a mere 15 sevens and 105 assorted others!
who you calling oily? hetty? ;)
stid..stid..what am i missing???
there's a pu8
6 corns?
yes, by accident though.
ot
it's an extension of pu5/18, Hawaiin pu***
one more k
no, 7 corns.
nope, sorry 6
they're ALL corns? back to the corn field I go
yes rolin, the pu 8 is what you need. build off the pu 5 party beverage, add "one who" for the 7 then plural for the 8
Hetty--id you find the fe?
no, 1 K is not a corn, just made a mistake.
Thanks all you children of American forbears. Whu couldn't I see that? I wonder.
so there is one K that isn't corn?
yes
right, mama!
do you know what it is mymuse?
Thanks, Pa,, I did, but the message tayed in my box.
k+ ending of feudal slave...there was king, nobleman, knight and s***
sure, hetty
ke4/11-ke+ 2 constants
you're awesome mymuse!!!! thanks!
means groove or notch made from cutting tool
yw mb
I have to go for a while. Be back later for the last 67!! Thanks everyone - and have fun!
bye mama!
ciao
later MAMABEAR... enjoy the water! :-)
hej gargamelz

the fe 8, boston, clued at 12:52
oh yikes... any hints?

hi musicmom
hi, mm
hi musicmom
What is today's theme?
I'm missing one u word --- I have one un,two up, two ur and two us. Any ideas?
Hi everyone...the cardgame I found is a 6 letter game, not 7
hi reese, it is vw bugs
hi reese...it's VW beetles
Reese's - vw bugs
make it past tense, kkiln
make it past tense kk
thanks all!
euchred
sorry
that would be it
;)
that slipped...sorry
'sok, kkiln, we all do it
my first car was a VW beetle back in 1954. All equpped with everything you coud have in those days and the car was a whopping $1500.
musicmom, there are two un's
Thank you vioxx
I got a new icon!
good choice, reese
thanks Leslie
I'm in today's grid!!!
my 16 yo niece would love that pic reese!
yes your are!
yay me
Very nice reese
whew, 5-10 minute break here....painting ceiling, neck is tiring!
can I get the numeric count for the un words? I have the 7/40
UGH featherbee that is a job!
hi feather
featherbee - I did the same two days ago and I am still in pain - that uses muscles I didn't know I had!
un5/20
thank you
got it!
uncheat
dangit!
LOL
hi krista, scoutsmom
hehe, tell me about it!!! have half the hallway done...i feel like i've barely started and i need a break already. the cutting in is the longest part, rolling goes so fast
LOL
dontcha hate that...Dr. G needs to fix that
and mtnjock... it's started to get hopping in here!
mtn, you guys got home fast.
yep, I think its nap time for sean and keith!
the un 7, does it run off the same letter as the un 5?
there are so many e's in this puzzle today
no
shoulda' sent Scout home with you guys...she doesn't want to nap here. getting quiet, though. maybe I won't need the hammer.
hello there LeslieAnn...
it's based on one of your sense
who brought the champers?
There's a solitary " he " eluding me; he6/27. Anyone have a clue for it please?
hetty, you are almost in the grid today yourself
fenders
oops sorry
I don't have that one hetty
he6/27 - groupof 7
he6/27 - first three letters denoting seven, followed by pet name for father
(just making conversation since i don't have the he 6/27)
LOL... we talked about it nap time with jamie, he said movies work well for him...
hetty, it's "a group or series of seven"
Apologies - I need my eyes tested - scrub the bit about father!
If I put a movie on, she'll just be up another hour and a half. I can only wait for opera and time to do the trick. Car ride if we get desperate.
boo
eek!
scout, that was my daughter's last resort. put my grandson in the car and drive. she learned her new area quickly which was a plus.
ScoutsMom, rocking in the swing always put MY daughter out!
HEY CAPONE!!!! I've been missing you! How are you???
capone!
good, just seeing if my login/password still worked..lol they blocked me from playing at the office, so thats pretty much why i havent been on
annie, be careful what you say about your daughter and grandkids, big brother is watching :)
we'll just put her in with our puppies, they are in a pile in the middle of my bed sleeping as well... maybe it will be hypnotic
That just is not fair capone.
hetty...story title' for he6/24 & plural 7/36
too big for the swing... 3 feet tall and 35lbs. but she's quiet now. she's either reading those books you gave her, mtn, or she's resting.
doug, did she not do that?
I miss your sacasm
I'm back now!
she did...
Hi shutterbugy --- I'm back too
k, going to tackle the other half of the hallway
I'm just saying becareful what you say b/c your daughter might find out, ha ha
bye featherbee
have fun, featherbee...it'll be worth the pain when you are done
doug, how are you doing with this grid? i was okay and stopped for a couple of hours--no list--too many words. dont tell her. hehehe
def not fair. esp considering we are slow. oh well. thats what hap'd to TSM too.
Bummer --- how is she? Please tell her I said hello and I mis her
Thanks, Unai and Ata
Dilbert is indeed alive and well
i have a lot to go...and I'm going now to chase little D. Have a great day!
I haven't been around much so I wasn't sure if you guys were off or if I was just missing.
yw, hetty!
Can I do anything for your eyes, Haz?
you too, dougie.
is the W ever used at all or is it for decoration.
decoration
shes doing well. hopefully i'll get the chance to visit her in 2 weeks when im on vacation
thanks annie
decoration
Just seen myself (almost) in the grid. Fancy that.Not a very comfortable place to be
The optician has had my custom, but I only use them for reading books. Perhaps not is the time to start when babbling!
I hope so that would be good.
you and reese coulda had a grid party
erda is in the grid too
Okay I'm being dense on the he7. I know the prefix for seven. Am I working from that?
I can't type properly either!
yes, mm
Thanks une
it rhymes (sorta) with not your stepmom but your step***
musicmom, I just foud it. Start with seven, end with ending of pet name for father (thanks Haz!)
ty haz!
so it ends with a vowel?
isn't that an h6?
not familiar with that pet name--interesting
yeah, just he6
Or the beginning of what turns into a frog?
oops, yes, that's the he6/27
yes!!
hi again
the only he7 I have is a plural of a different he6
hi ping!
hi ping!
music mom, no it ends ith a fourth letter
why, ping, you have changed
Okay i got the six. Now does the 7 (is there a 7?) that builds off that?
hey ping
there's an he7 that's the plural of he6/24 and one that's the plural of he6/21
Hi ping
is this and he 6 or and he7?
Okay I have both of those. Thanks
and the past tense of the funeral car
Yep that was weird! I didn't know you could past tense a funeral car
i didn't either!!
pam, yes ifelt very out of it w the seashell icon
well, if somebody's at the cemetary, maybe they've been he 7 there
Oh, and that gives me the last re8!
Ok, no more talking about funeral cars. My grandfather just died, and I never want to see another funeral car again.
very good point leslieann
I'm sorry shutterbugy
sorry shutter.
sorry, shutter
past tense of funeral car - good title
ok, lets move onto another word now.
The word he**** means to carry or bear, so it can, as a verb, be tensed. Notice what the actors do when they "carry" the text in advance.
my 7 month old is helping me today
82 words left and I think it is time for a list.
hetty is such a smartie
Oh, ping, tht is so cite.
,m 88,.ol [ xdz
*cute*
which btw, hetty, is in the grid today as well
i don't think that's in the grid today, ping's kid
Good one ping's baby!
and Leslie is same plus synonym for dokey
she did that - precocious yes?
but, you know, close. keep at it.
i was being serious, hetty! i didn't know that
her name is carry - alt spelling of course
Has anyone noticed that the British slang for one's behind is on the grid almost every day?
It does appear often Krista
and that its past tense isn't allowed ....
I know Krista.
yep! I drive around with the back of that on my car...I have a Taurus SE...hubby rearranged the letters to spell that word...no one here gets it, though!
Leslie, LOL. Yo're a peachie. My problem is I've spent my life--sixty years almost--teaching
and threw the other letters away, I might add
Nice crab Krista, did you catch it?
en7/32?
lol, i'm a smart donkey often enough, so it'll probably go toward another time i don't get caught ;)
present participle of en6/21
en6/21?
yes, I did, thanks! - I threw it back in, though..don't pick crabs myself anymore..did it during morning sickness and it ruined me on them!
en6,7 en+ a form of address in a letter
my thoughts exactly, stephie ;)
en + loved one (+present participle ending)
i need the en6/21 too.
i LOVE going crabbing.!!!!!!
love his blue crabby bits!
thanks!
and the British slang for one's behind is certainly ubiquitous.I remember when I first read scenes from Mdsummer night's Dream to Canadaian students they all cllapsed into giggles when Titania was declared enamourwed of an ASS and fresh from the land of ar**s I didn't know why.As I've said before, we are separated by a ommon language
they are really beautiful creatures
how does one pick crabs?
I loike EAtING them.
hetty, I live that every day in my house.
I dont pick them, I catch them.
Anyone noticed how they resemble spiders ?
eek - he's everywhere!
how many words today
280
280 big ones, aeuser
My brother has a tarantula.
picking crabs is how you break them apart and pick the meat out to eat them...there is a lot of gooey yellow stuff that turns my stomach..I can eat it if someone else picks them.
ewww. so you catch them and eat them yourself? being from the midwest this is interesting :)
UUGGH, yuck I dont ike that yellow stuff either.
I catch and eat my own crabs.
whenever we eat peel-n-eat shrimp, I always make my husband do the peeling -- something about the legs . . .
i never new that Krista. I didnt know that was called picking them.
YUM crab and shrimp. mmmmmmmmm
I LOVE peeling shrimp too!
I am a seafood head you could say!!!!!
the gooey yellow stuff is lungs ... and reproductive bits
lol
yuck -- gooey yellow reproductive bits -- that's just wrong
It could be a Maryland term, I don't know (picking).
YUM ATA
i think i will stick to ordering my crabs already prepared :)
*grins* I'm doing well at grossing out babblers today!
me too LA and Alaskan king crab is my favorite :)
Shrimp....ahhhhh....the best. In Maryland we eat them steamed and spiced. They don't taste right to me any other way.
Oh where is the adventure in that Leslieann?
Oh, no, Leslie it's much cheaper and more fun to catch your own.
it's a talent, Atalante :)
Anyone want to com with me ot go crabbiong? LOL!
wow, I really messed my spelling up there.
you can see a picture of the yellow gunk if you scroll down: http://www.baltimoresun.com/travel/bea ches/bal-crabs-picking,0,570510.htmlst ory?coll=bal-bayandbeach-storyutil
uh thanks but no thanks krista :)
did any of you hear what the meaning of the s4/4 we have that sounds the same as a cute little fluffy white sea mammal that gets clubbed?
crabboing - bouncing down the beach looking for crabs. no spelling errors there
that's quite an offer, krista :)
Yes, I knew you would all cut and paste that right away. :)~
oh dear, atalante
another gross-out, atalante ;)
awful, isn't it!!!!
hi, last re5/10 please?
What is the purpose of that? I thought that's what the hoods were for.

other half of hallway done, break now before i do the part over the split level stairway
re5/12 = to say no is to ref***, but leave out the f
poof........
wow you are quick feather
re5/10, to re"look"? Hi everyone :)
well, the rolling is quick, and the cutting in for that part was just the walls...the first part, i had to cut around 2 fire alarms and a light
i'm missing one ce6/24 at the bottom. I have the one that ends with the put into service word
twiddle the last 3 letters arounf
around!
thanks ata
don't you hate it when you look and look for a word and then finally realize that you've missed a plural? I've done that about 10 times today :(
me too, jen!
got it!
Yes Jen - Happens to me all the time
at least I'm not alone . . . sniff . . . ;)
and TY for mentioning that, MM, cos I had the other one and not the one you had!
Always glad to help ATa
jen, there
ooo . . . pizza's ready . . . bbl!
Jen, theres a bunch of words with the past tense, too
mmmmmm pizza.....
Yum pizza sounds good.
some very STRANGE past tenses!
pizza ALWAYS sounds good!
It's DiGiorno, which is surprisingly good -- going to munch -- be back in a little while :)
i keep wanting to do "teach"
off to neighbor's graduation party...the humididity is terrible today...not looking forward to it, but hey, it's free food.
No crabs, though. :)

LOL :)
*sigh* ok, must do the part i'm dreading, the stairwell area. at least there's a landing.
good luck feather

Thanks...see ya later...still have 202 words to go!!!! I'll take the grid to the party with me...that wouldn't be rude or anything, would it??
lol ty
LOL Krista - go for it.
Go ata go. I still have 51
don't think the others exist though ....
that is possible, ata
well *I* cant see where they could be!
there are two en6/21 words at the bottom of the list. I have the one that means fervent attention. Any clue on the other one?
plural of en5 above it
pl of the en5 before it?
OH DUH!!!!!
people who finish things
thank you. I was looking for it to follow the one I have - not come before it.
I could use a fish
hi musicmom!
*hands over gooey yellow crab bits instead*
Hi stid! How are you?
hi stid!!
YUM thanks ata. OOOOOOOO it stings when it gets in your eyes
seriously, ata. ew.
why are you putting it in your eyes???
better than an electric eel!
Because I smacked myself with it.
ohh, slapping. right
doing ever so much better than the last couple of days! even getting out in the garden for several hours already!
my computer crashed while I was away and I lost my list at Lickety's... oh well. I have a teeny 98 words to go!
glad you are feeling better, stid..
That's good. have you been ill?
I should be weeding the front flower bed but I only have 47 words left.
OH No stid.
Some sort of virus, I think, though it came on fast like Strep it hasn't been as brutal. just a bit of a cough left now. :-)
that is horrible. Don't over do it too soon
Tom is making me rest frequently :-) don't worry, being outside is healing, and I am leaving the heavy work to the boys.
that is good
phew. staggered over the 200 line listless. now straight to the list :)
I did too Leslieann. The list helps a bunch toward the end
that first pa7/36 just isn't right.
hmm i have no pa 7/36 care to share? :)
any help on the T in the top right corner?
having t4/4's
past tense of a te 4/4
past tense of a te 4/4
mm, howdy pa*****?
I really thought that was slang Annie
oh that isn't right!
Yey - don't you love that past tense too stid?
i thought so too but it was accepted.
Great word!
not slang, "regional" according to dictionary.com. heh.
past tenses are annoying... *looking*
that is one I wouldn't have been able to find without the list
then there is the baseball team....pa****
ad 6/7 combo?
aha leslie
that is a silly past tense... thanks. one more gray box
between past tenses and plurals, i just found 10 words I *should* have had...grrrrr
obey the rules leslie and the present tense
oh thanks musicmom, wouldn't have looked for that as the third letter
Only 10 more p words --- will they never end?
go musicmom go!
okay, going to enter words into the list again. back in a while.
bye stid
bye, stid
did you get the pa 7? think of business associate, business pa *****, change the crossed letter to another consonant
Yes inge I did. But, thanks for the clue.
Hi, I'm back from my nap- who needs clues from the world's worst typist?
I am down to my last 7. have a suggestion for the babble store: vouchers for missing words available if you have less than 10 words to go,
hello jia... i mean, jai
What letters do you need?
Hi, Leslie!
jai, besides 6 r words I need de 6/21, the word right after getting rid of rodents
Hi everyone. The Babble Anniversaries Calendar is off to a rolling start now.
anniversaries calendar? *bounces off the angel's page to look*
Hi Angelsong --- I love what you did with the icon calender - much easier to see
de5/12 + a vowel
Do you need the one that means to avoid or the one that means a bunch of teens going out?
angel, when i try to use the site index it says "restricted sites" in the corner. do you know if that's a problem on my end?
back. hi Jai, angelsong, une.... etc etc and go inge go!
what is a clue for da6/21 plz and ty?
finished! Fireworks! No? Who blew out the fireworks?!?
hey ya stid
hoooray dachef!
congrats, dachef!
btw, your name is *thisclose* to being in the grid today
there are 2xda6/21, both begin with the da4 meaining to mend your socks!
YAY Dachef! no fireworks? :-/ !.-.-.-.-.-.-.DACHEF.-.-.-.-.-.-. !
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~DACHEF*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
thanks stidmama - feel much better now!
angel, my bday didn't get on the calendar--it's Dec. 29--thanks!
I have not dealt with so many e and r tiles in a grid in a long time. I'm getting very dizzy
btw, there is a thread in BA/Meet and Greet so players can post their Babble Anniversaries.
da 6/21 is the da 4/5 meaning to mend a piece of cloth (often socks) +the "one who" ending
and Leslie too! Careful, too many fireworks can be bad for the health. make sure allpets are kept indoors and all beards neatly trimmed.
BRAVO dachef
beard?? what are you trying to say?
beards and fireworks dont mix.
OH HAPPY DAY!!! MY P is GREY!!!
good-o, musicmom
Urine should only be grey if you're Mr Spock.
our family doesn't do fireworks.... lost a dear friend to a homemade rocket years ago. Now I hide on the 4th and new years.
hi dachef, leslie, musicmom, stid, angel, une, annie and anyone else i can't see!!
hi Fran!
LOL dachef
hello fran
Hi Fran
Inge, I apologize to you- my computer didn't load the whole word list, and I had to refresh my page, which tookages...Do you still need clues, or did you finish?
I am highly unmotivated at the moment...
Sorry Jai, I went to Angelsongs page, then had to refresh, and my computer, or the grid, is exceedingly slow. Now let me chevck which de I need. Must be the teens going out, since I have one meaning to hold back or keep back.
hi jai, hi inge!
lol, at least you guys are coordinating your computer problems
thanks inge, you just gave me two words! :-)
Looks like we have the same problems. Yes I need that de 6/21 as a starter. And I to FranMag and all the rest.
Go out on a double- da4/5, add hook letter and plural it.
anybody have the up or un words?
stid, fireworks are scary. i was caught in the middle of a fireworks incident myself, won't ever touch them myself again.
suddenly the fireworks have started! About five mins after I actually finished! Must have been a slow burning fuse!
jai,. I need a DE word please
un's are hungry (5) and silent (7)
I have one UN -- un + past tense of what your auricular appendages do...
i do harp, what do you need?
dachef--the most dangerous kind!
harp - up + anther word for rip, and plural
brb - phone
yippee! another gray box!
et 6?
I still have to P another 15 times though...
et6 - another word for forever.
darnit, i missed that one yesterday too. thanks dachef
or: e + seabird + e
I am still looking for that de word. DE 6/21, right after getting rid of rodents
got all the u's now. thanks
add an e, inge
ty Doreen, now to those blasted re words.
stidmama - Ive already p'd 50 times today. And if you count the "not found in dictionary" p's, Ive moved into the bog for good.

wow, that's a lot of p'ing, dachef. are you sure you don't need to see a dr.?
OOps, screw-up- wrong starting letters....There are the does, then the fourth letters, the the great car de** spelled wrong, and pluraled (bet that;'s it) the the de** of Literature of the College, only spelled wrong, plural that, then get rid of rodents again, add an e, then more does, spelled wrong, then the stop word and plural....try those clues
this is great, i haven't had to ask for a clue and i've already found 4 more words!
hi all, back again with 100 words left.
Thoose clues were for the de's

ScoutsMom, EU 6, that game that midwesterns play with cards from 9-ace. Yeee Haaa!

for ea what you hear with
Sound like doe, a de**, a female de**, only spelled wrong; then a word that means to put off- I de*** paying the bill until next week....washing your hands de**** infection....There you go, shutter
et5/12? eu6 or 7?
Thanks leslie, cant believe I missed that, pass the fish!
thanks LA, needed that one too
why is the person doing the re 6/21 ( to remail) not accepted in the grid?
mtnjock clued the eu's at 3:04, jane
e+ scotch ta**- use it when wrapping presents- plural it
harp, et5/12 is e+sticky stuff
forget the plural
relend
sorry, I am trying to find an alternative for taht 6/21 word,

and ad 5/14?

One who is very agile at doing something is ad***, and is called ad 6/24
Hello Becky! This piccie is so great!
the 7 is "more so", shutter
clue for second ce6/24 anyone? i have the plural of the tree
ad7/36 builds from ad5/14, shutter, it's the comparative form (add comp. ending)
I might have to make a print of it and make some money out of the little brat!
i'm still having trouble with that eu, and I don't know any midwestern card games
Whew I'm back. that was a long call
change the a to another vowel, fran
ce think tree
plural the tree spelled wrong
I still cant get the 5/24 though.
but the second ce rhymes with a pe later down in the list
google it dorens
eu + first three letters of dec. 25 holiday + second vowel
LA and jai i have both of those
thanks, that's an idea
Dorens, think of the mucky yellow colour and substitute eu for o
thanks dorens! i probably don't have the pe yet, but will look when i get there
ad+ second vowel + urinate letter + British drink letter
mucky yellow crab insides!
thank you hetty
Can anyone clue me for the last 5 pa's. please: pa5/14, pa6/27, and pa6/24?

thanks dorens
pa 6/27 - stopped
yw,
to hesitate and associated words
and pa 6/24 - stops
hetty, pa5/14, a break, pregnant pa***
All have same root word, Hetty- to stop a moment, sounds like the foot of your cat or dog
hetty, the rest build from there
thinking--pa(use) for thought--
um, hetty?
That's IT, hetty!
now that i have the first eu, I am still stuck with the second, are they related?
yup, past tense
dorens, past tense
oops--didn't mean to give a WORD there, sorry--was punning on the keyboard
the second is past tense, dorens
thanks. now how silly do I feel?
and my first chat message is in the "add word" list!

Sha--since no one seems to have noticed your questions about the calendar, I'll tll you what I know, tho when I went to look on Angelson's babble page I couldn't find it. The calkendar does several differentthings: main lky it gives the icons for each day, biut also it matks biurthays and anniversaries of importance to babblers. If you go to Babbler's iko page and follow various threads you should find it.
Ping i copy the letter to word document and print then start looking for words with this help

meanwhile, I typed in sua** about 40 times -- wish I had asked earlier!
hey, I'm in the grid today
both literally and phonetically
why yes, there you are
just musing... the thing that annoys me about going to the list is that so often I find words that were right there in front of my face, and yet, it would take me 5 times as long to finish these last 40 odd words without the list
true nrk
was anyone here earlier when i swore never to paint a ceiling again?
guess what....

poor feather's biceps and shoulders
I hope you are using very good paint...makes it much easier.
i think i'm going to make my husband to the second coat tomorrow. he hates to paint though.
yep, paid for the good stuff Jee!
I used cheaper paint before, and it was not worth it...took many more coats than it should have.
oh, man! well, i think after the second coat we'll be fine.
there's an R word hiding from me...
It will be worth the trouble...I love seeing freshly painted rooms.
painted 1 ceiling...
just one nrkii? you are fortunate.
i'm loving the smell right now!
I am still missing 10 r words.

jen pe5/12 pe + crush kill ***troy

pe 5/14 - um, like in cop shows someone is always trying to impe** the investigation - plural without a singular
harpjane, if you went to the police and ra**** someone out
aknitter - i'm hoping for your daughter's sake your last name is not gun!
or charles
thanks, jen34
ty, leslie

ty, leslie
pe 5/12 - pe + anagram of the name we're talking about

lol, never thought of those!! she has chosen the name helvetica so when people argue with her about her "real name" she tells them it is helvetica
don't worry. got them! fireworks!
ohhhhhh, lib, I finally figured out the clue for he 6/27, and that was truly wonderful
ata, to use scotch ta** again

yw, nrkii :) & ty!
9 to go. Poor Mexico.
hoo-rae for atlante
pa 7/36, anyone?
aknitter, my mom's name is connie, and she went to catholic school so the nuns all said her name must be short for constance, and it's on all her report cards and such from school
ae?
pa 7/36 howdy pa**** thinki wild west

phan, ae + ***titute (poor)
pa7/36 Old westerns Howdy Pa*****
it is amazing leslie ann how many people argue with her about her name
past tense of re5 just above it

tuco, re + not a new car, but a **** car
thanx tuco
aknitter, they argue with her about her name?
thanks nkrii, OOps I had that one I meant the 2nd re6/21
yup, she has had teachers at school tell her that her name must be short for something, just like LA's mom
tuco, to start seeing your old boyfriend again
that's terrible -- I thought teachers were past that
Hello to my Fellow Babblers? How is everybody today?
hello minver!
not around here that is why she picked the name helvetica, now they can wonder why rae is short for that LOL
good, minver, how are you?
I didn't have to deal with that unless people found out my middle name, then they'd tell me it was a boy's name
hi minver!
*happy dance of p doneness*
erm, not the best wording there
anyone have the 2nd pa 5/14? I've monkey-typed all around and must be missing something obvious . . .
ad 6/24 anyone?
YAY LA
aknitter, think glue
now only 29 to go
don't worry leslie ann, the fireworks will distract us from the p doneness lol
past tense of pa4/5
jen, the 2nd or 3rd?
i finally just got it, jen, take the pa 4/5 and add the last vowel on the end

ty, min
frejn

aknitter, what actors did before the play opened
ak, one is what you do to food the next day, the other is what an actress or actpr does. Hi everyone!
aknitter re 8 & 9 to practice for the play and past tense
tuco, the second pe 5/12 is pe + rh 4/5 minus the h
hi cat
Hi debbinla! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
hi abe!
jen, I am confused with that clue
doing well - 47 to go! you guys all done?
hey everyone - i'm back !!!! check out my profile - hehehehehe
ty bonk
I got 145 words by myself.Now I'll be looking for clues
the 6 or the 5, tuco?
the 6, the 5 clue was great. thanks
12 to go debb
got them both now thanks jen ;)
nice nrikii!!!
funny helen!
tuco, pe + blind **** (to go out with someone you haven't met)
se 9 anyone? i like to at least get the long words if i don't finish
hiya nrkii ! how are you?
yw, cal
how do you look for clues?
good helen, stuck on a word right now though
aknitter, the se 9 is a compound word -- think of plant origins and one who consumes them
aknitter, birds are se 9
se9 birds are this. what they do from feeders
has to do with what they consume
hi, helen!
se 9 the little tghings that plants spring from + one who dines
admarc, 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.
i have 55 left - who wants to race??? (i'm not leaving this til the last minnute like yesterday & not finishing by a few!)
wow, that's a tricky one
hiya lib!
Hi folks, just popped in to see how you are doing. Not playing today, Hubby and I have been out for the day, enjoying the sunshine, and a picnic by the river watching the swans
Hi folks. I'm back for my last 27. I've found another phantom word to go with 'teacher', 'creature' and 'kennel'... 'hundred'. Tea urn's in the grid but we'll have to stay thirsty 'cos it's not allowed.
hi bonkler!
looking for a clue for ne7/32
last en 6/21 please?
aww, 132 left here helen! and have to go do bath and bedtime
en + ra 4/5, nrkii
ty tuco and bonk, i needed both of your clues to get that one, weird word
hi wren, jac
I'm back from the party. I didn't take the grid with me. I was a good girl. :)~
how do helenkeller
those who want, calqhoon? builds off the ne 4/5
wren - that sounds SOOOO nice !!!!
did you at least get some good free food, krista?
hi everybody!
thanks LA!
hmmm still stymied on 1st pe6/24
hey jac, don't you ever sleep? you were here last night (your early a.m.)
LA, en +ra 4/5 (means filled with delight)
wow, ty, bonkler for se9/0 !!
jac's usually up late i think!
tuco, pe + da4/5, blind da**
doh! Thanks Fran.
came "this" close to putting that en word in the chat here...whew!
hiya jac, feather, fran
thanks leslie, i didnt have the plural
hey helen!
how do you get a clue?
i missed so many plurals today
yw tuco
personally i am clueless --- just ask admarc
just ask admarc
lol, aknitter
Yep, ty, and I was good in that respect, too. I only had one hamburger and some veggies. But now I am drinking beer, so there goes the diet for today. :) Doesn't Babble burn up a lot of calories, though?
Hello Cat9x! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid!
did i get any takers on racing - 53 - & i'm an easy mark!
babble burns many many many calories krista
anyone want to give me the ae word?
sorry helen, I'm down to 11
Hi Minver, doing good thank you :)
krista, it isn't babble that burns the calories, it is the repeated slapping with that heavy fish that burns the calories
Alright then! A guilt-free evening awaits me.
aknitter, ae + ***titute (poor)
and if you race me and win, I'll be destroyed, disheartened, and demolished
ROFL!
ok nrkii hiya cat! - did you vote today? lol
LOL nrkii !!! - nah, there's ab-soooo-lutelyl no chance of that happening!
hey helen! Yes I did! :)
its like a**** de camp, but with the second vowel instead of the third
oh yes cat. who have you been voting for?
Hello ExWren! How are you? You have very good self control if you can sign on w/out playing the game! I could never do that!I'm just so addicted to this game
got it ty
Hello Krista! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid!
Hmm, Janie, Howie, Kaysar, James, Marcalles, Dr Will, Nikomis, Bunky, Yvette, Monica, Dianne, and Lisa.
Yes, that would be very hard, I agree. Thanks! I've been here a while, just never chatted much.
my wife is trying to get me dressed for my nephew's wedding, but I know I have time for a few more words
how are you voting for all those? i thought you could only do 1/day
Thought I'd spare my husband the constant Babble commentary from me, and talk to those who care. :)
There's always time for just a few more.
of course
they will probably not start on time anyway
who and or what is bunky and why are you voting for him/her?
Big Brother allstars bonkler :)
big brother :)
they have all stars?
thought for a second that lederhosen was in here
sadly, yes ;) i voted so far for Janelle, Kaysar and Danielle, cat
I detest Yvette, but wanna see her get her's AGAIN :) Yes, voting now for allstars!
ch 6/7 combo?
just can't do the unreality show thing.
lol cat, do you read reality blurred? that's the same reason they were pushing to get jase on
ch6/7 sounds like a type of cheese
I am not a big Danielle fan, disliked her a lot! She did play a good game though.
ok cat - i was worried there for a moment, because i think the entire plaent detests evil-ette
i'm sorry, i missed the se 8/9, if someone would be so kind !
I don't like reality shows either Bonkler, but have always loved BB
like the cheese, but short a double letter and spelled wrong too
LA, sounds like a type of cheese, single the double letter and change a vowel
oh come ON, i tried to monkey that like 16 times. thanks stephie
then the plural
Sorry, I can't join in on the race, hellenkeller. I have too many words left. I have 148 words. Does anyone else want to race who may have the same amount of words left?I am not a good racer though because I'm way too slow at this game. I need a lot more practice
danielle made me laugh, that's enough for me to vote for her :)
I read Reality blurred yes :) Thats the only reason I want her back, to see her get trashed and booted!
i might vote for that chicken fellow for IL representation, even though i never saw season
one
Down to five....one that has me stumped is the re6/24 after the re5 you sow what you re____
I have 172 left, and will be off and on the grid this evening...I'm up for a race.
the only big brother i ever saw had a surly one legged goof and featured a somewhat homoerotic massage that got nasty. i decided my time could be better spent lol
yw!. the se9 is what a bird consumes + what someone is at mealtime (it is a compound word)
abe there is no se 8 the se 9 is what birds like to do
i, on the other hand, really love most reality shows - i've come to the realization that for me, they are like horror movies (which i NEVER watch, cause i like to sleep at night!)
I missed season One also, so have no idea what kind of person or player he is.
abe, it's an se9, compound word, starts with the se4/5 that plants grow from and its what birds and small rodents are
speed, past tense of that one?
LOL Bonkler!
oh leslie ann - please don't! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't - we don't need that kind of representation - he's so annoying
re8/9??
bonkler saw season 1 - lol
thanks fran and stephiec and aknitter
I'll be happy as long as Janie, Howie, Kaysar and James make it.
4 left, 4 re's. 1st re5/12, re5/10 and following re6/18, last re6/21 woah this one is so long all the words are not showing up on "My Word List"
yw!
Minveryork...did u see my last post?
ok LesieAnn I am an idiot, that deserves more than a fish slap, never looked at the other e!!!!
stephie, either what actors do before a performance or to make warm again
cat - & dr. evil - then i'll be happy too
and why is cupa not a word? i always have a cupa tea
boo Howie is too weird
StephanieC, I do not think there is an re 8/9 word.
oops, I mean one who makes warm again
Now the other 4 are all t's what fun
Howie canbe odd, but he makes me laugh, so I want him back! :)
for the actor one, make it the past tense; for the warm one, make it plural
Oh yes, Dr Evil too! :)
jedi joker. LOL
anyone have any word that makes use of the w?
thanks jen, i got them!
LOL
yw, steph!
ok, helen, good enough for me. who you voting for?
none uncagain
Will pissed me off. My wife watches the show religiously. I get caught up in it too.
there are none, Uncagain
thnx
LOL about your cupa question! I alwaus have a cupa tea in the morning too! I agree, it should be a word!
No words starting with W in the grid
1st re 5/12 please?
it's spelled 'cuppa'
I loved Will, he said he would lie and cheat, he told them, they wouldn't listen! LOL Got to admire that!
re + mass ***truction, tuco
tuco, sounds like what you do with a book
tuco, a color + 2nd vowel, make it plural
aaarrgghh. I suck
thy Jen
last ce 6/24 please? I have ce + deception
lol, tuco
Krista, I would be happy to race you today! I am not very good, so you'll probably win, but I am up for the challenge! Ready, Set, GOOOOOOO!!!!! =:)
nrk, just scramble the letters
nrkii, ce + consonant + to utilize
it sounds like XM radio station or solemn
Great! And I'm off!...to make my son a sandwich! Really, you will probably win! I've never raced before. Cool.
Thanks Fran!
yw nrk!
ty all, 3 more to go. re5/10
how's about the other ce 6/24 that isn't the wood plural or soundalike?
1...
to look at again, tuco
leslie, ce+deception (ru4/5)
ce + to mend socks LA
huh. thanks nrkii. take that, c's!
ty LeslieAnn. How do I miss these?
hmm, I think my wife is serious now. I think I am done for this one at 189 words. Thanx for clues , everyone

stephie, the last two use the same letters, just scramble the last 4
hi all back from the gym...and to conquer these last 43 words
stephie, the two at the end (ce + consonant + utilize and another) um, utilize the same letters.
lol nrkii - 47 - wtg!!!
aknitter, up+another word for rip and plural

ty fran, thought i had tried those
ooh, my muse, helen was looking for someone to race with
helen no racing for me i have 130 left!!
ce6/21?
mymuse, your icon is wonderful!!!
tuco, last re6/21 is like the ra6/21 (ra**** someone out), but change a to e
well, you *could* race, you just probably couldn't win ;)
not me, helen -- 127 left :[]
aknitter- i think there are others racing in the low 100's - maybe it was minver?
ce + to assign a movie letter to say what age can get in
lol helen sure, but you'll win
there you go - its aknitter & lib!
I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing
thanks nrkii!!
oh i wouldn't want to show off!!!!
sorry for the wordy clue stephie

hey can u give me sum words! plz!

oh but reed DOES exist in the puzzle!
aknitter, u+price or motion picture designation
u + what the movie industry does to films to say what age can get in
that's bizarre. I am getting a script running on this page warning and it doesn't show the number in MyWordList using Firefox on Windows.
ty, fran & nrkii!
got it ty nrkii and fran
jess, you know by now we won't give you words! :)
sure lib!
why not
ask for clues jess, that we can help you with
we only give clues jess and there are a whole bunch going up all the time
why do you only give clues
yw aknitter!
Because if we gave out the words, it wouldn't be a PUZZLE to PUZZLE you!
well?? franmag
jess, because giving words in the chat is not what the game is about, most of us enjoy trying to figure out what the words are on our own
lol - hi jai!!!
jess,if you're new then you can read the rules at the going to one of the links down below.It's more fun to try to guess the word by using the clues in this log.
soo . .just 1 word
jai - there you are! i was looking for you yesterday - but i don't think we were on at the same time
jess isn't new though, so jess already knows all this I think...
jai last night after the flip there was a big conversation which was a lovefest for you and your clues
nrk, do we still have some of that product in stock?
try figuring OUT the words from our little clues, jess...
hi jai!!
omg do you guys go on this every day
fran, was just thinking about that
here's one for you jess is cool, ch5/14, what you are trying to be
Oh? <teary-eyed> Oh!
here's one word...NO...ark ark
lol krista!
Good clue Yoink!I did not see that in the grid before!
jai - when you left the other night, i was left with the impression that your feelings were hurt because of what someone said to you - so i wanted to tell you a couple of things -
what the hell, you guys and your jimerish
jiberish**
we love having you here!!! you are an awesome clue giver & a great deal of fun!!!
lol, yw Minveryork
i second what helen said jai!!
I get the clues...I SERIOUSLY just started today...this isn't hard anyway, just frustratin'. Just guess and check!
gibberish
and i'll keep chiming in agreeing
i gibber therefore i am
ditto!
and hi all
Welcome, Rae!
that's exactly how it works rae! then pretty soon you recognize more and more words.
you shouldn't take to heart what people say - some people do not have very good social skills - i doubt they are even aware of how hurtful they can be - you are not the first person that has felt insulted by what 'she who shall reamin nameless' said
lees
my feelings weren't hurt....I was very tired- and my computer crashed. I lost ALL of my words and had to do the puzzle TWICE in one day...I was so upset and tired...but I wasn't mad at anyone, just the system for crashing on me....Does that help?
hi yoink!
damn
hi yoink
Jess, I'm sad to say I am adicted to this game and do it every single day!I have no life! It is really fun once you get into it.How long have you been playing, Jess?
patt
oh my god you guys are like babble nerds
oops
i'm proud to say i'm a babble nerd - hehe
yes we are, and quite proud of it! :-)
omg you are obviously cool then, spamming nerds
how can you be proud of being on a computer all day figuring out a stupid puzzle
Yes, it is true that the person you mention does NOT like me and took me to task for my clues! But I asked Dr_God about what was acceptable, and she said we could run our clues how we wanted, as long as we didn't give out words...which made me feel better....
ok jai, but you did refer to someone & i just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in that boat - i've heard other people say they leave when she comes on
there is a dr god
doctor?
yeh
Jai, I know we've not met but I have used a lot of your clues recently while I lurked, none of it ever seemed to cross the line
jess, babble is a relaxing pastime for the literate. i spend my time doing things that you'd neeer imagine. this is only one small part of my life. it is brain exercise. i have a very good brain, i intend to keep it that way. perhaps you'll grow into such notions.
Yes, the Creator of this game...is Dr_God.....and I have emailed her a bit whenever I had a question about "crossing the line".
plus, most of the time jai has a lampshade on her head, being the life of the party and all
watch me weep buckets as people disapprove of me playing babble
i don't think you have given ANYONE any reason to not like you - though, i suspect there may be a slight bit of jealously involved - because, as i said before, you ARE an awesome clue giver & alot of people look to you for help - some people just like to be the best at everything & resent their 'turf' being stepped on - at least that's what i think may have been going on
Erm, Jai , Dr_God's a he.
was out-- yes, welcome back, jaih w/ your awsome clues! :-D
This babble nerd nowm has 23 words left to find
jai, I was going to say that too
great icon, jac!
ha ah ha thats funny . . .how old are you anyway?
now i am curious... what day are we talking about?
I think so....and diff ideas about what this game is all about...which for me is....having fun and trying to figure out when the heck I'd EVER use the word "unthink"...LOL
go nerdy....i mean hetty!!! :-)
I wish I can say that I am a Babble nerd, but I do not know enough words yet to be considered a nerd. I'm just a Babble idiot! I am hoping to reach Babble nerd status some day though! Jess,why do you play if you think this game is stupid? Try playing something you like!You can try Boggle or Soduku or any other game.
lol - right, jai, dr. god has repeatedly made a point of saying he's a HE - although many of us do believe it's a woman (which HE should take as a big compliment!!!!)
wooooo go nerdy hetty! (now *that* is a smart donkey comment) ;)
leslie, this was yesterday
My name is Dan and i am a nerd
he's really a "he"--I saw a pic of him a long time ago on a web developer website
i dont know who the person who might not like you - but it's one lone voice out of everyone else that thinks you're great!
Thanks, Une. The caravan's good, isn't it?
tate
jaia--I agree w/ helen-- jealousy...
in unison now.... "hello, dan"
i never said i didnt like it i just said i dont go on it every single day
LOL minver - nope, i think you qualify for nerd status by now!
k- sorry about getting Dr_god and Lickety mixed up...I can never remember which one is which....In addition to my awful typing....LOL
for heaven's sake, darling Jai, unthink the whole episode.
LMAO now!!!!
goddamn, I never had this problem while I lurked
lickety is a boy too - lol
and I a NOT a nerd, whatever my babbling friends say
Jamie Tibbetts aka Dr-G is the son of one of the Babbler's friends. Can't remember if it was ArtLady or Mamabear now. Speaking of which, where IS Mamabear lately?
yoink, LOL!!!!
uh, sorry hetty, but you're a HUGE nerd, LOL!!!!!
LOL yoink, welcome to the chatflubs!
I AM a nerd, and we are the ones who grow up to run things.....hee, hee...
Can you please all stop posting ne4/5 in the log?! ;-)
very true jai!
mama has been on today for quite a bit
heh, I remember the good old days when return wouldn't enter a comment
ok jai - i just wanted to address that issue & let you know that WE LOVE YOU!!!
jai, you do give wonderful clues, and as someone who loves to clue, I enjoy watching the clues you come up with (along with others clues too)
oops! jacula always catches us!!
LOL jacula - didn't even realize that
we love jaia :-)
Yup.:)
Well, I love you all, too! Now, about those very bad helenkeller jokes......
there's your free word jess
and who someone who is lousy at cluing - but learning - i really enjoy waching jai and all
I had missed the n-word!
LOL
I'm off to chase 2 missing te's; my last 2 words.
franmag, LOL!!!
aw, fellow babblers you are awesome!
go jac!!
29 left
running my last "re" to ground . . .
hi mymuse!
franmag, thanks for that! :)

TTFN--see you at the flip!
Jai - It's only 1:09am.
Congratulations Jacula on your fireworks!Good for U

it is going much faster now that the munchkin is in bed, and i can have the paint can on the floor again instead of on the top of the stove
congrats tuco
congrats tuco
Feather, people were telling me that they loved me, which was splendid, and I mentioned that there is one person who does NOT love me, and she is constantly at me and correcting me and generally makes me leave....She comes on in the AM.....Does that help?
'Bye, Une. I'll be asleep at the flip and out in the morning. See you later on (probably during the footie).
ceae
yeah feather, then you can sit down to babble and make the rest of your neck and shoulder muscles sore!!
hmmmmm...
paint can on the stove??!!
ahhhh, yep! i love you too!! i recall an earlier conversation when we were all saying you were great and shouldn't feel bad because of a person
yea Jacula, Someone from ironsudoku gave me a link to a site where you can create your own SP character
te 6/27?
can i please have a clue someone
lol feather - yes jai, as i said, i was looking for you yesterday, LOL
lol, flat burner stove, plastic over it, roller tray on that
whew! *mopping brow*
te6/27 - t + ec5/16.
leslie, looks like the past tense of a word that babble does not accept, like made more modern perhaps.
Then you understand...and TY all again...my eyes are still teary....but I like the jokes and the quality of the people here even better than trying to figure out why "unthink" is a word...Yes, that still bothers me.....
paint soup anyone?
clue please someone
feather...I found my 5-year old in the bathroom on the night I painted it, with screwdriver in hand, complaining that he just couldn't get the lid off the paint! Thank god!
hey everyone!
Tuco - can you post the link? It might be fun.
omg krista!!!
jac, it's a fun site, you dress yourself and everything. put up the link tuco!
Yeah - it's up high now, believe me.
I object more to unmeet and unmet. How can you unmeet someone?
Hey JGalloway!
you're right yoink, those are annoying
ok, gotta get back to it, so i can come back and finish the grid
Eric Cartman's my favourite character. I have a soft toy of him.
Ok, Jess, try this: when someone wants to play a game, but doesn't mind the rules, and whispers the answers, he is a ch***. What word in the puzzle does that make? Enter it in your word list.
His version of 'Oh Holy Night' just cracks me up.
my goals were unmet
can someone clue me the top right corner t and e please? muchas gracias

Let's guess how old is Jess! I'd say 9!
jai how old are you?
40 +9
I just guessed 14, Jai.
helenkeller - PFTTTT! LOL! I can just see Jamie Lee Curtis saying that.
no im 14
I guess 12
Before you ask me, Jess, my age is on my profile. Same age as Jai.
no plural of pe9/72...
Pass that spray.
49!
I won the guessing game! LOL

Krista - would that be the 'Raid'? LOL.
be careful what say next jess !!!!!
So you are too old to be asking for words, right? But old enough to play, if you follow all the rules....
one pe9/72...
Krista, unfortunately, the store's supply ran out... we need to restock
I'm 107
no ur not.
LOL yoink
Been using it a lot lately?
-80, Yoink.

yes he is - in dog years
i think the targets of the spray have become more resistent.
you don't look a day over 126, yoink!
Jess, prove it
dang Jac, you've been peeking!
prove what
hmmm, I will pass that along to R&D, we may need to upgrade to industrial strength
that I'm not
Helen - that'd be 189 in dog years.
that your not what
spray, please!
I am going slow too Krista. I have 155 words. 7 more from when we started the race. I was playing Boggle.
i don't know nrk, maybe a new formula, we wouldn't want it to harm the environment
that he's NOT
not what!!!
Forget it, you obviously have trouble following a conversation
7 to go - clue for pe9,72 and se9,60 Pleeeze
Okay, jess, we've talked enough. Now I have to go back to my "job" of giving clues for a while....And you have to solve the puzzle to get your fireworks!
nrkii - There's a spray you can put around the edges of a room that keeps pests at bay for up to 3 months. I used it in my utility when annoying little ants entered.
not cool?
pe9= one who talks you into things
We don't want them to develop into spray-resistant , more virulent strains....
pe9/72 is a person who pe8/55s
no wehavnt
se9/60 is one who consumes se4/5s (things plants grow from)
not a he6/27, for sure!
{JESS ARMOR} Anyone need a clue?
I'm beginning to think the Babble Boot might be handy.
LMAO!
lol jac!!
hmmm, do we have a Babble Boot yet?
No, nrkii, we don't. Put it to R&D.
not yet nrk, i think R&D needs to get on it
No, but we desperately need one....
Does anyone have a clue for the ar 5/10 word please
how about a Babble Shaddup?
babble boot! :D -- new item!

Umm, not ones that bad...

More ad 5/14
ad 6 + ad + neither **** nor t**** , then plural

Okay, Yoink, I won't milk it.
I just never thought about it- I mean, why four? They never have four calves? I was thinking six, but now that I DO think, I remember seeing only four....this is a ridiculuos conversation.....but is serving a higher prupose, if you know what I mean....

fe8/60, think confe****** army
ke8/65 is to have ke6/30s like a corncob
Last a - but I cannot find the ae... help?

nrk, your clue for the te6/27 is the best
te6/27 remember the pc guru? same beginning but make it past tense
te 6 is addle-brained, old-style, but looks like it means applied computer knowledge to
te6/27 is t+ec5/16
head getting better since the medicine? man, hte last thing i ever want to do when i have a migraine is look at a computer! like knives in the eyes
Did anyone find that the lack of O's and I's a little weird? I did? And BTW, did the cow have four udders?

um ak? there aren't any te7?
Hooray, HJ!!! $%&$%&$%&!!!!! Good, old-fashioned hard work! Congrats!
how about the ta7 instead (oops)
aknitter, ta5/12 is a tall thin candle, the ta7/36 is how it's shaped.

~~~~+++FIREWORKS+++~~~~~
there are two de5/12's above the James Cagney clue. I am missing one of them.

280 words
stephie, one sounds like lets make a de**s
my 3 year old is helping. sorry!!
hi everyone!
de5/12s are both plural of 4/4s, same vowel ending different consonants; one sounds like Let's Make a De**; the other sounds like head of a school
PE 5/12 clue please? The one after the children's department. It's my last word.....
hi Annie
the other sounds like de** martin, they are both plurals
There are 280 words aleksia! Good Luck finishing!

last he6/21?
congrats to the solvers! uhm, can i get some assists on the ups
stephie, that woman + consume
sounds like it should be two words, stephie, he4/5, plus a preposition
at our end of the year breakfast yesterday the principal said something about giving a gift certificate. But she said, "There's a gift certificate that the recipient can give to whoever they want to do."
steph add a preposition to the one before it; first two letters of room under roof
he word" not there but he**+ ** the movies
up+te4/4, then plurar
Does anyone have a clue for the et 6/18 word please
thanks for the he!
from he4/5 to et.... change the ending to make it poetic
e + bird + e
YW!
Ys, Minver. It's French for eternity and spelt in a very similar way, ending with second vowel
I do hope "he's" handsome!
he 5/14 after the warming ones?
he5/14 = like the jewish se5 except for the first letter.
cross he with end of bird fe*****.
Looks like a football play without the "a"--not fooot but he**
k, thanks!
there are three he4/5's at the end of the list and I am missing one of them. I have a type of bird and not his.
or same ending as ch6/27
yay H is done
may i have a clue for pa 8/50? thanks?
on to the Ks
Not there but he**
stephie, just change last consonant of the ones you have, sounds like throw
I have two more K words to go :/
he4/5 = sounds like to throw (hu** a javelin or discus).
thanks fran and charm
abe, add past tense ending to the pi**** pa**** of small feet
past tense of pa6/21
Pa8: pitter-pa**** of little feet+ en+ past tense....
thanks , i should have seen that one!
second pa6/24?
clue for the last he6.21 - TY
pa+ hook letter + Sandra ***
stephie, sounds like a gathering of people, but spell it really wierd
stephie = the pa4/6 before it + 2 (same) vowels.

Ks weren't as bad as i thought. 61 left
lynxxx, that woman + consume

Mosey on over here pa*****, from old Westerns :)
lol, that's a fun one
shavua tov!
pe4/7?
79 to go! *feels accomplished*
pe4/7 = like a fuzzy fruit, but drop the 'a'.
pe + su** is life!
I have a cute story about that pa 5: when my boys were little, we liked to watch videotapes (didn't have cable and this was before the PVR/TiVo stuff). They were accustomed to being able to pa 5 when they wanted to take a break. For YEARS we have continued to say: "Pa5 the story" when we need to put our attention elsewhere... this includes outside play, TV/movies/ books...
doing well Mollusk keep it up!
got it, thanks
how many total words tonight?
280
go mollusk! that is a sweet story stidmama!
LOL stid, I remember those days!
wow, thanks mullusk
no prob, my pleasure :)
I could use help with the he 6/27 that comes before a bunch of cows, please.
i stid I thik it is a chemical term
latin for 7 gives you first 4
he6/27 - prefix for 7 + ***pole (baby frog) - earlier clue.
then first vowel
thanks andy and Charm!
and I think Chrm summed it well
yw
still have 77 2 go but this is an easy puzzle - got 62 in first 10 minutes w/out list of course
...what is this list of which you speak?
I have 49 left, listing since around 150. Not a bad grid, just big. And of course this being Saturday there has been a lot to do.
mollusk click on the link bellow the grid called Lickety's Babble Clues
43 left here stid...
Mollusk, there are two lists, one at Babbler's Anonymous, and one at Lickety's Clues, both have links in the "friends of babble" section at the bottom of the page
go feather go!
well it is my last for a week - off to Florida and California tomorrw
my arms ache!!!
andy, how goes your "vacation at home" why to the southern states?
second pe 5/12?
it's going to be HOT down there andy!
feather, did you finish your painting today?
business stid
"vacation at home" is work 7/24
99% of it...at least the first coat
but no complaints - bable is my only fun right now lol
i did the hall, entry, and living room. decided at 9:30 that it wasn't a good time to start the small dining room
i can't find the first le4/5, and I know i'm going tofeel foolish when someone helps me
good for you, feather!
ah, of course. I remember your family is in Europe at the moment... thought maybe you'd be getting to rest a little more!
I wish but it is OK - it my choice after all
Dorens, I must admire your ferns... We have many here that occur naturally, but none quite like your icon. It's lovely.
and this was just the ceiling. still need to wash the sooty (cheap candles) walls, and paint the walls.
le + abb. for some time
thank you...i have lots of different types here and love them
hmm, do they *really* need to be washed first??? *sigh*...probably
well andy, as long as you "mostly" enjoy and feel rewarded by your employment, that is what matters. I am trying to teach the kids to look for a career that will energize them instead of doing what I foolishly did and studying for a career that didn't suit me at all.
feather, that's a big job but if you tackle that the way we tackle babble you will finish with flying colors
thanks Stephie, but i still don't get it...
yeah, you definitely have to love what you do for your living
first se5/12?
i hope so annie! my personal deadline is july 8th, because i'm hosting bunco here then
le + abbreviation for 60 minutes
feather, you might consider washing the walls tomorrow and waiting to finish the ceiling for a few days. It would let your muscles rest from the "head back" of ceiling work and still move you along in your project. (not that my opinion was asked for)
jewish dinner at passover
my job was the last thing I wanted to do... now it's the last thing I'll ever give up!
well stid this can be a long discussion - I spent 12 years in "corp world"ast three of them in the Valley and while I never made more money I was never more miserable
I don't know what a Jewish dinner is?!
and so post 9/11 and a layoff from S&P500 corp I struck it on my own
no, that's a good idea stid! however, i have doug here tomorrow, and then the rest of the week i'm on my own, so i've already roped him into doing the rolling if i do the cutting in. he HATES to paint, what a good sport.
steph, it is the dinner that is eaten at Passover
at passover, we have a ceremonial dinner called a se***
se + the first three letters of a whirling +++vish
oh, did anyone clue the second pe 5/12 for me? i wasn't paying attention
yes, that is what I am talking about. It took the post-partum problems to take me out of the office and career mindset; and a few years of looking around for what I CAN still do to discover my talents have been calling all these years.
well, i've learned something tonight. thanks.
well I am happy to share my thoughts anytime on/off line
pe5/12 sounds like what a woman carries.
I am not making any money yet, but am growing in confidence and skill... striking out on my own, as you put it andy, seems scary to me, but fortunately we are used to living on just one income so there is no scary push.
what is the pe5/12 after that one?
right above that one stephie?
I guess that we are looking for the same one!
good for you - hope your revenue stream picks up
oaky doaky. need to focus. 49 to go.... 49 to go...
i am still stuck on the stupid le 4/5,,,what is wrong with me?
yep!
71 to go
Dorens, if you speak German, it means "learn"
le + new england state abbreviation
it's a hard one dorens
eu 6/27 eu 7/44 help please
le + 8th letter + 18th letter
dorens, le + his and **** minus the vowel and last letter
thanks. feather...that did it
go andy go!
welcome
eu 6 & 7 a card game
ok, last try...anyone have the second pe 5/12?
hi, if i can jump into the discussion. i majored in music, always had a "day job" - mostly in computer programming. in my best year i made about 1/3 of my income in music. i am so happy that i studied what i loved. i knew when i was 12 that all i wanted was to play in an orchestra - and i got to be what i wanted to be when i grew up - if only part time. it is one of the happiest facts of my life - that & my kids. my advice - study what you love.
eu is a card game on yahoo. 7 is the plural
eu + anagram of sonny's singing partner
oops. 7 is the past tense
featherbee- pe + **** a book, minus last letter
first pe6/24>
thank you abe!!!
yw featherbee
steph, pe + a blind **** (think romance, matchmaking)
brb
and the last pe6/24?
melonhead, that is so cool that you continued to include your passion in your life, and that you get to perform! I hope our children will continue as you have, and be able to at least spend some of their time doing what they love. Music has always been a part of my life -- and so has art. They are my true passions... alongside the kids and the garden of course!
andy, do you ever travel to the Seattle/Portland area?
well, with 74 left I think I'm going to throw in the towel... I'm practically falling asleep on the keyboard!

Good morning everyone, back for the last leg of this puzzle.

the 4/5 + a preposition
hi, paddy

g'night and good luck, all :D
good morning Paddytt!

he = at this place + a preposition (the beginning of this clue)
sorry, not following erda
Hi annie, hi stid
oh -- the legalese pokes its he** in again! thanks Dorens and feather! and stephie and...
pe plus late (drop the y) or, to fall on one's pe6/24
that was my last H. on to the L words!
Hi Erda, you are in the grid today.

it's a phrase, feather. Otherwise: pe + very late (drop the last letter)
So I am, Annie -- lol

right back atcha, stid!
hi, ping!
so sorry to hear of the injury, melon. :-( I have tendinitis which curtails my guitar and recorder playing. Fortunately my primary instrument is my voice which is usually working.
hi melon
Melonhead: Sounds like a little blue animated character with a white hat6.
ke 4/11 rhymes with another word for slave
ke 4/11 rhymes with a brand name of a soft football
hi annie
ke 4/11 is a type of cut in wood.
ke + Ke*mir The *rog :)
3rd re4/5?
*ke*mit :)
it's a bummer - i do haul out the ax 15 minutes a day & was a volunteer coached for the bass players @ my sons school. at least i get a small pension. god bless the musician's union - 1st they paid me to play - now the pay me not too. ;)
never mind!!

Hey Gang just popping in to say hello :)
hi faerie!!

hi faeriekae! how does your garden grow?
Hi Annie and Cat9 :)
te 6/27?
Hi Stid the gardens are doing fantastic. We got some much needed rain and my flowers and weeds are loving it :) and how about yours?
Hi Ping :)
te + Sonny and **er, past tense
never mind, i have it
thanks though...and I need the ones before it and after it
well, the rains finally stopped so we can get to the weeds (which in some places are 4 ft tall) -- the rains ruined the peaches and set the plums back for the year, but otherwise the trees and shrubs are loving it. And now the boys are home for the summer they can help with maintaining the edges on the beds (once I find them again).
I am stuck on se words. Just give me a hint for the last few please
before it is te6/21, te4/4, past tense, mammary gland?
stid, how old are your boys?
I am really dense tonight I think -- the first pe 5 and 6 please?
after it is te4/5 te+ Ma and **
thanks cat
the Bs were a breeze tonight
Stid I understand about the weeding and edging. Thank goodness you have some help. I've been going out ever evning and weeding for the past week and it seems to be a never ending job LOL
I have one teen and one tween... I'm at that awkward stage, as Erma Bombeck used to say.
i was at the ballgame thursday & got drenched. the spinach has gone wild in the last three days. spinach salad every day. tom'w i'll sautee it w/halloumi cheese - yum!
I did you Preen on my biggest garden and I have no weeds at all there and I LOVE IT
I miss Erma... I used to read her stuff all the time!
LOL
stid, the first pe 5 is plural of the first pe 4
mmm. spinach. reminds me I need to harvest the broccoli before it bolts...
that should have said I did use Preen
the first te5/10 cries
and the first pe 6 is past tense of the pe 4/7
that was dumb of me, Dorens.-- meant the PA 5 and 6. sorry.
Hello Ping!How are you doing?Welcome to the puzzle!
took a little snack break, back with 37 to go
makes more sense
She had a terrific column in the papers here. I miss her books also.
think latin fathers
what is Preen? we garden organically because of all my chemical sensitivites.
father in spanish then plural?
i have seven left. mostly te's
Dorens, that was the hint I needed! thanks?!
and cat9
yw
I just wanted to say a quick hello I off to bed I was going to wait for the flip but I'm tired and the dogs have already crashed for the night so Happy Babbling and I'll see everyone tomorrow :)

PA 6/24 after the plural latin fathers? and before pitter pa****

top re 6/24?
Does anybody have a clue for the re8/45 word please
Does anyone have a clue for the re 9/60 word please
minver, re --- what you do over and over before a performance
I'm confused stid, I may have given you thw wrong clue, the one I gave is for the one directly under plural fathers, spanish
re6.24 is the past tense of the re4/5 above it.
nvm Cat9, got the PA 6/24. your clue made me look again at my list!
re9/60 is the plural of the re8/45 above it.
featherbee, the top re 6/24 is to harvest your crop.
re9/60 to practice , as in actors and actresses, again

and the 5/14 is like the abbreviation for child medicine with an extra vowel between the last two letters
to re "listen"
if youlisten again,
