My poor mother is in the middle of a major thunderboomer and her internet went kaboom! She is now sniffling in my ear (metaphorically) about it, because all her tech support (my baby sister and her boyfriend) are not available to give her an insta-fix
oh dear -- I get so confused by the time. I know what time it is in Tbilisi, but get confused which way to go from there. silly me.
welcome all who just arrived
welcome back. bambam. Another not too many worded grid. I like around a hundred
not another one, please send my hugs to Jai, knutmeg.
hello, got a z!
there are NO Ssssss in the grid....
hugs sent. :-)
anyone know the word count for today's puzzle?
101

101 little spotted words, Cruella d'God has done it again... LOL.
knutmeg - isn't it midnight for jai? (i think she and i are in the same time zone)
Itried zoot again, to no avail. Guess Dr_God is too young to know about WW@ zoot suits
di6/24 courtesy of Jai
plethora! hetty, you were just itching to use that word, weren't you?
thanks Jai!
we are all in the same time zone, midnight-oh-five
i try zoot every time too, jilli
tech support hard to come by in the wee hours
well, someday they might update the enable dictionary and then it will be there, Ping!
oo6/33 courtesy of jai, again
Not specially, stid. Dont usually think about words, just use 'em
do 6/36 folks!
Clues are up.
thanks so much, lickety!
wow lickety thanks!
fu7/44 courtesy of jai, AGAIN. (My mom rocks even without internet)
wow, lickety, thanks
THIS CLOSE...to the word material
thanks Lickety! I really really like the add words thingy that puts the words where they belong in the list... it really has saved me time on the days I am rushed. You are AWESOME!
thanks Lickety :)
i second everythind stid just said!
Thanks stidmama - I thought it would be helpful! Thanks everyone else. Have a great Babble - 101 - not so bad ;-)
Thanks Lickety!!!!
BTW, happy late solstice to you -- now your days will grow longer and you can look forward to the spring flowers.

Jill.... I almost did that on the fu 7 just now!
ao6/18
courtesy of jai... I suck
knutmeg -- that is NOT true. didn't you just get home from work?
your mom was saying that you are working a whole lot these days. Are you getting enough rest?
had the heart ao...
that's ok, stid, I already got the fu7 <brag>
rest is for the weak
za6/33, go mom!
then Latin plural for the ao 6 liba
ty, stid :)
knutmeg -- I am tired... I read "rest is for the week" and was about to agree with you! LOL
almost word - geranium
go Jai go!
za6/3--crazier?
I didn't just get home from work, I only worked until 7pm today, I am doing laundry now, all *gulp* 8 loads
well, i better get to bed before stid says something to me too -- goodnight all!
6/33
and the real FISH is in the grid today.... LOL
ma6/36, I don't think mom can find anything LESS than 6 letters... oh, wait, that's the rest list
nite, all :)
good night libarebel, see you tomorrow I hope!
be here, stid!
Ping, must you leave so soon? sleep well and see you in the morning.
nite lib
i'm in central time - must be off!
nite, saph
laila tov, liba
my sympathies on the laundry knutmeg, i just spent 2 evenings in our basement doing laundry and tyring on all sorts of old clothes and cleaning out my closet. it is nice and tidy now and the only clohthes in there now FIT ME =)
Mum and I believe that if unthink is a word, then goozier should be a word, too.
knutmeg -- is there additional help on that ma 6?
cuz my baby's puke is goozier than her poop sometimes
we had baskets of laundry that had been ignored for weeks =(
& melon :)
good for you, kierlex! I am in the middle of doing the same!
take a yummy jewish dumpling and add a T
how about magazine?
despite the depressing part of trying on clothes that i wore before my pregnancies... it is nice to have it all cleaned out. i got rid of 4 garbage bags of stuff, giving it to friends and then goodwill
Knut, you're a nut!
matza
I suppose I should mention my name is well earned
oh no, not again!
That's the one I got Jill, but can't seem to make it into a 6!
i still think tazer should be a word
me 2, kier
I think the french should be able to die, too.
what knut?
but they can, knutmeg! Just not as long as they're used to!
Stid--try a diff. vowel to make the ma into a 6
but that e makes it french, our americanized spelling sucks! *snickering*
thanks miranda! that worked!
welcome
rein
Oh, drat! Sorry
mote not in the dictionary? Some Bible reading needed, methinkd
LOL knutmeg! I have read so many british books and websites, that I can no longer spell proper "american" words!
mote is in there it seems
try it again Jill -- it worked for me...
well, I think the enable dictionary should be un-americanized, cuz, we really can't spell well. Everything is prettier in other countries, spelling-wise that is.
need some sleep - night everyone
yup, there - sorry - and I did spell it right the first time
good night saphyre, see you tomorrow.
morning, morning, morning, morning... maybe now I will stop trying it.
night saphyre! does the pansy have some significance?
oh darlings i shoudl go to bed
kierlex, sweet dreams and see you on the morrow!
well i didn't say i WAS going to bed, just that i SHOULD
kierlex.... sleep...... dream..... rest..... lovely happy babble dreams..... mmmmmmmmmmm chocolate!
am waiting till hubby goes to sleep, he is kind of cranky. but then i am super-b#tchy today myself
I must get to halfway before I go to the list.... must keep monkeytyping...
kierlex, sending you pleasant thoughts. Did you know that just relaxing your face muscles and smiling _on purpose_ can elevate your mood?
okay, now I KNOW fannie is a wurd!
rude one in England, stid
yes, same as the ar 4 word, isn't it?
hey dilly - how're you doing?
not quite.
oh -- even ruder? i will have to watch my language then...
in England and Australia the fanny is the front bum!
the am7/32 soudns like pasta lovin'
just with the brits, stid! Oh, aussies too, I guess!
oh dear -- language gets so complicated sometimes!
or, in the proper order lovin' pasta
lol now even I didn't know that!
morning, daisy! what are you doing up so early/late?
good clue Knutmeg
he's gone on a drug run, so I thought I might as well say hi....
oh daisy -- I hope you mean ASPRIN!
hi lynntan - what time zone are you in?
lol not hardly....those &()*&^^^ cigarettes...
I don't get the am 7 clue. a little dense this time of night...
small italian love
THAT, btw, is a gorgeous icon!
thanks bambam, I think that gets it...
yep! that was it. thanks again
can anyone help me with the di 6 that Jai found earlier?
another phantom word: "orzo"
my efforts at small italian love aren't working
mine aren't either (small italian love)
when the moon hits your eye ....
Jill -- think little tiny skinny spaghetti -- the ending sounds like "teeny" take off the T
yeah Stid, i think annie is a word too.... we use that for the kitty or the ante in poker (in Oz)... as in "ok annie in, let's deal"
Stid--I can't find the di6 either
ta, stid, I was ending with the first vowel
ooh i found it.... di + smallest particle
I think I just did... di 6/24: tiny sea organisms that leave their skeletal remains in huge amounts like the cliffs of Dover.
Bambam's clue is easier to follow though!
Stid I turned on IM if you feel up to it
ahh, thanks stid
ok, i am going to bed in 20 minutes...
I have 48 words. I need another three to make it to halfway... **takes deep breath and submerges**
do 6,36 is a .... well .... one of them! (a good one)
Oh yeah, sure, I believe you, kier <snigger>
me too stid (exactly)... then at half way i go to the list!
and the other do 6 is "one who"!
now 49
i need to. i am so bad at staying up till 1 or 2 adn then have to go to work in the a.m.!
51 words! to the LIST!
why isn't dogate a word? as in the dogate my homework!
ROFL Bambam -- our teen tried to use excuses like that for his not so good grades this last term... I know for a fact the dogs did not actually EAT the homework, they merely chewed it a bit
even if that happens, no teacher believes it lol
I guess I need to reboot...yahoo is being an ar 4/4
have a good deep sleep, kier, and a bright day tomorrow
good night keirlex!
okay daisy, i am ready when you are
hey i have 13 mor eminutes left!
shall we remind you in 13 minutes, kier?
yes, please do. cuz i say that and then 45 minute later i think, hmmm must be time go OH DANG IT
nice that the do 6/36 isn't in the dictionry
jeez not often you see a 4,13 word!
i am stumped by am
*hurries off to find the unusual word*
okay, so the french can't die a french spelt death, but the ga6/27 DOES count? Silly, silly dictionary
finally got things working right!
fu4,13 and ga5,14 unusual ones.....
see bambam at 12:35 for the am
thanks bambam! that is a strange one!
Stid, I'm back
not helping - i think i've tried every am + partner of and & but, a more assiduous effort you couldn't ask for.
guess I'm fading - don't get either of those fu and ga things
jilibus, think spaghettini but italian love instead of the pasta
hmm, the definition for the fu4/13 is interesting
I can't get the ga 6/27 either...
ok my babbliers, i am going to bed (well, shower first)
see ya tomorrow for more time warp babble 'i can't believe i did this for 5 hours straight again' fun in the sun
am 7/32 - "that's am***", lose the last letter, add spaghett*** (the skinniest kind)
sweet dreams kierlex, hope tomorrow is more fun for you.
bambam got the am 7, the am 5??????
Hi all - so tired but love this game - have 64 left!!
way to go lynn!
the skinniest is cappell*** aka angel hair
nite. kier - forgot to remind you (knew I would)
You all are pros - have yet to finish one of these
am 5/12 A+immo**al soul
ooooohhhhhhhh, am 5 have nothing to do with love, possibly to do with death?
still looking for the fu and ga
Death comes into it but 4/5
the fu is like yiddish for fuss
51! mediocrity attained! g'nite!
and, to bed w/ me-- got up for a few -- babbleholic, me!
good night libarebel!
I guess everyone got the fu7/44 right off, too easy to even mention
nite stid!
oh - also a* (death) for 5/12
thx, lib. Any help for the ga6?
ga6/27 means spoiled in french...
or, a sweet, too!
I have a ga 6/27 that's a cake in french--it has a typical french ending--like the ending of water in french
that's it, mir!
thanks for the ga!
yes--as in a ga**** chocolat
thanks, mir - I had tried the "spoiled" but it was short a letter and was disallowed. Your clue takes the cake.
yw--it makes me hungry
yes, jilli-- gate is spoiled!
mota
Darn!!nI always do that!
the cake, jilli, lol!
lib, spoiled is gâ
hi everyone! how many words today?
to spoil a child is gâter - that's what that garble below began to say!
yes, jilli, can't enter special accents here as far as I know...
101, JG
as in enfant gate... doesn't work...
but, you know, jilli :)
didn't I just enter an accent? can do with windows - that one was Alt + 226 in the numbers keyboard. Lots more available
how do you get the circumflex, jilli?
see below, lib
oh, gotta figure that out on my mac!
Don't think it works on a mac
don't have alt, but will try option
right, jilli-- just tried it...
In Windows, it's all in Character Map - which is found in Accessories
will work on it...
hmmmm, brainstrain.. nite jilli, et al :) zzzzz...
every option is available on a Mac - just different keys to use - what do you want to know?
are there any z words?
i prefer to pretend that one can't make the accent marks... I always get them wrong anyway. :-(
option is Macspeak for alt. my emac has alt insmaller letters on the option key.
¡™£¢∞§∞¶•ªº–≠åœ∠‘Â´Â®â€ Â¥Â¨Â¨Ë†Ã¸Ï€â€œâ€˜Ã¥ÃŸâˆ‚Æ’Â©Ë ™âˆ†ËšÂ¬â€¦Ã¦Î©â‰ˆÃ§âˆšâˆ«ËœÂµâ‰¤â‰¥Ã·
for an Acircumflex on a Mac press option-i+A or option-i+a for lowercase
â„€‹›ï¬ï¬‚‡°·‚—±Œ„ ´‰ˇÃ¨ˆØâˆâ€â€™Ã…ÃÃŽÃËÓÔ ÒÚƸ˛Ç◊ı˜Â¯˘¿
fireworks for us!! (poor mum, no internet still)
hmmmmmm, my gebberish typed one way, posted another, trying mac w/option.
if you use accents a lot on Windows, you want to download a programme called AllChars - it lets you enter accents much more easily than using the character map. and hi!
JG - yes, there are 6 Z words
âha!
ty joey!
think crazy and Greek letterJG
yvw glad to help the zo 5/16 is a place to see animals pllus a freud term
YAY Jaiknutmegnniah!
LOL!!!!! (((STID))) from both.
TEN to go!
Go, Stidmama!!!!
help on the tr 5/20 please?
oops, it was a zo 5/22 sorry and i am done
YAY joey!
stid - ends in the last letter, added to the word before
think the wonderful men in Iraq are tr**ps, drop the ps, throw on that 26th letter
got it. thanks joey.
ok, it is late. wrong clue. it has a double vowel and then ends in the last letter
good night joey!
i am outta here. good night and good luck
(the alphabet still has only 26 letters, I hope, its like 1 something now >.< )
thanks also knutmeg.
Thanks knutmeg - where do you find these gems?
´, ˆ, ty, artdr!
screwed up the circumflex, but I get it!
mostly my mum found them, she was all over the board (we played together via the phone since her internet fell victim to a thunderstorm) I think I monkeytyped that particular word though, based on the number of points. That's my specialty in teh jaiknut team
well, folks, I'm off. I've got three more loads of laundry to dry and then I get to sleep. Gonna put some music on and *gasp* read for a bit. G'night, all!!
*poofninjavanish*
good night knutmeg, ***Liv*** Jai...
(four to go)
goodnight, all you whizzes who whiz through these grids so fast! I'm off soon, hoping to get half way.
need 2 more z words! Help!!
three...
Now just 1 z word (plus 56 others) :)
lynn, I just monkeyed a z which rhymes with what you control a horse with
TWO!
go stid!
cool lib - if it can be done, it can be done on a Mac!
Me too - like no in German with a z!!
ONE!
I'm lacking a z too - za 5/20
I see fireworks for you, Stid!!
I need the ag 6/24 and running out of monkeys... any help?
Question - how do you all know that you're looking for an exact word - eg za 5/20?
za 5/20 is a country in africa i believe
there are a couple of Lists... Lickety's is up already -- in the "friends of babble" section at the bottom of this page there is a link
Lickety's Babble Clues, lynn - scroll down to the Friends of Babble on the left
ty, stid.
and jill, too!
thanks guyguy
Guess what? We solve the darn puzzle, and I get my internet back right after....
oh, the irony, jai!
hi Jai! thanks for all the help earlier... I need one more -- the ag 6/24. can you help?
agoani
oh shoot! sorry all...
too bad that's not the one, stid!
see Jai? I really need help!
Jill -- are you holding out on me? *stern expression*
I did it! YAY for me!
no -- I just tried it and it "was not found in the dictionary"!
I can tell you now that it is a type of currency, based on the ancient greek marketplace...
WHOOPPEE STID!!!!
*comes back from switching laundry* See, Mom!? I told you it could come back on its own...
knutmeg... I did it!
first time I have finished in under an hour!
any clues for the zo5/22???
JG: a place for animals + opposite of ego
*cheers* YAY!!! *~*~*~*~*~FIREWORKS~*~*~*~*~*~* for Stidmama!!
thanks so much for all the help! I will try to drop in tomorrow, but will be busy with my great-aunt and the kids most of it.
What about za* 5/20? Way to go Stidmama!
Stid, I think I know the 1st 4 letters of the ancient Greek marketplace, but can't find the rest - am I on the right track?
Under an hour - I worship at your lexicon!
yes you are jill
yes, it ends like the jewish soup dumplings.
za 5/20: an african nation.
and I am going to sleep now. sweet dreams, friends, and see you soon!
????
Ty Stid - got the za* 5/20 - but Proper Noun?
nite, stid - have a good family day tomorrow
Yeah, lynn - proper nouns happen a lot in spite of the rules!
Guess I'm not good at jewish soup dumplings - can't make that ag6/24 work! Any other ideas?
Think Greek market and end with "go bad"
thx a mill, lynn. And now to bed, said sleepyhead...
Yes must have shower - so hot, so sticky!!
ag6/24, ag + either/** + short version for overtime at work.
Need to get at least half way tonite - 5 more words or die!!
ty cat!
you're welcome JG :)
otia
any clues for the zo5/22 cat??
oops, good thing it isn't a word :)
thing of a place that has animals, you visit the zo* + short version of your identification, like drivers liscense. You show your ** when buying alcohol.
be back in a few, have to walk doggie :)
ty cat!
Tiki! *waves to Tiki the cute rottie*
za 6/33 anyone?
??
Tiki waves to Ata!!!! Hey Ata! :)
za6/33, more crazy?
in a funny way! :)
well done cat! brilliant!
ty cat!
thank you CL :) Thanks JG :)
Morning all I see the hairy nosed fresh water dolphin is back in the grid.
good morning FM :)
Hi Cat :)
Spanish for moi is in the grid also, won't let me use it! Go figure, some Spanish yes, some no.
morning FMitch :)
Such are the delights of the world of Enable.
Yep :)
Morning Atalante You can tell it's time for Wimbledon as it's raining!
and the spanish word for cat is there too :)
yup! Hobbit managed about 2 paces outside of the door before running back inside this morning! I think she's allergic to rain
I know, thats what I was refering to, but it won't let me use it, it's a travesty!!! :)
Add another letter to the word for cat for another animal though ....
Awww, Mine is allergic to rain too, sh turns into a huge baby, have to force her to go out to potty in the rain.
Thanks Ata :)
She now has her own umbrella ( I hold it of course) :)
its ridiculous isn't it! I'm sure the rain doesn't actually get down to their skin anyway, they've got such thick coats!
When the automatic sprinklers come up early morning, she won't go out either lol
LOL
sure is!!! They think thye might melt I guess :)
silly creatures!
Good morning all.
morning Haz!
very silly! Hi Haz!
Morning Haz, Is Spangle a pro or anti rain dog?
Spangle loves the rain. I'm less favourable.
She's really keen on snow as well.
Tiki loves the water, loves to go in the lake, or the water at the beach, but turns into Miss Priss when it rains, go figure!
Hobbit just hates water. She'll occasionally dab a toe into the sea if there are no waves, but other than that, water is apparently torture ...
I don't blame you Haz, I'm not fond of being out in the rain either.
awww, poor Hobbit :(
I don't mind so much being out in the rain, it's the smell (of the dog) afterwards that isn't pleasant. I don't think I smell too bad.
LOL!!!
at least we don't have labradors ...
I think with Tiki is she can control water, like the beach. Whether she goes in or not is her perogative. Rain, she can't control it, it just lands on her, she is at it's mercy :)
Hold on, I think I still have some pic's of Tiki on my computer that my Son put on here awhile back, if so, I will put one as my icon so you can see her, be right back :)
oooooh cool!
Morning - what's the grid like today? I haven't quite done chick FLICK...
I am finding the grid a little more "challenging" than yesterdays, have finally made it to 58 words.
Good morning matty - Not long started the grid, but yesterday's was so much fun, despite first appearances.
Back shortly. Chauffeur duties await.
See you later
Can anyone clue the ai 4/4 for me please?
Didn't even know there was one ... goes hunting for the ai4
a normal babblet, FM
Yes, found it That which we breathe + a letter
Ok Ata, did it work? Takes hours for me to see my new icon, even after refreshing. This is Tiki at my Son's friends place, playing with their new puppy :)
OMG Cat that is a great pic!!!
got it, thanks FM
OH MY!!! It worked certainly! how gorgeous!
The puppy is sooo small next to Tiki
Thank you! The puppy looked exactly like Tiki, same markings etc, but is a chiuahua :)
that's just gorgeous. I *love* rotties!
sorry spelling on chuahua :)
yw Calq
So do I :) Wanna see my Main Coon, Niki the cat?
I found one of him too
Yes please Cat
YES!
ok, brb :)
ok, there is my Nikki :) I have more kittys too, need to put all the pic's I found onto one site, like Photobucket so I can share that way, maybe tomorrow I will do that :)
oh WOW! what a gorgeous gorgeous boy!!
Nind of dark, but thats him, he is my baby :) A huge furball!
he looks just gorgeous! I love furball cats!
isn't he? He is gorgeous
me too!
roof
Beautiful beautiful cat, Cat!
I found pic's of a rescue bird I took in also, have since found him a home. Rescued a Cockatoo once too, found him a wonderful home, he was a love.
Thanks FM :)
ooo must phone up vet about the sparrow we rescued on friday ... must remember
Back again - pretty cat, Cat!
Lots more babblet words today compared with yesterdays grid.
sorry, my neighbor just came to bring back the vaccum she borrowed.
Thanks Haz!
You rescued a sparrow Ata! Is he ok?
I don't care for todays grid, lots of odd words. Yesterdays was wonderful!
Haz, have you found the hairy nosed dolphin yet?
don't know .... will phone up the vet in a few minutes and ask. the poor babe had a hurt wing and was in big time shock. Anyway, we rushed him down to the vets and they were going to keep an eye on him for a while to either put him out of his pain or get him better again. He managed a few hours after we took him in, I know, so that was a good sign
Not yet, I'm ashamed to say.
Found the jewish dumpling, I think that's what the ma5/22 is?
Remind me of the starting letters?
I stumbled over it and always think it's a flower - i
Oh I hope he will be ok, the poor little thing :(
You're right about the jewish dumpling.
Thanks Cat, didn't have that one.
I'll let you know when I find out ...
you're welcome and thanks Haz.
Dumplings, French cake and soyabean extracts, not a very appealing meno?
Please do Ata!
LOL FM, not at all!
the cake sounds lovely :)
If it's French cake, it will be. Patisserie windows in France are works of art.
True, true, but not sure it appeals for breakfast .. then again ..
anyone wanna throw e a random clue? my words are coming in dribs and drabs, but slowly.
*me
o+ Monopoly is a board ***e
no idea what it means, odd one. My Momkey found it.
There's a ga5/14 that's usually attached to a fearsome reptile.
*monkey
to6/24, to + a tail **** on a truck.
Hi all! This isn't a very nice one for a Monday morning, is it?
Here you go Cat An alphabetic system of inscribed notches for vowels and lines for consonants used to write Old Irish, chiefly on the edges of memorial stones, from the fifth to the early seventh century
got both those already, thanks though folks :)
tr5/20, tr + The Wizard Of **, double the vowel.
thanks cat, didnt have that one
Good morning amanda - FMitch says it's challenging, and I agree with that.
Morning amanda, It's a wet Monday morning grid today.
ty again cat
tu4/8 tu + do re me ** so la ti do!
you're welcome
That's certainly an apt description, Mitch. How many letters does the hairy-nosed d? I remember the definition but not the word!
it's i4/4
ga6/27 tail ga** on a truck + first vowel + 5th vowel
Thx - will get the monkeys up and going...
Monkeys gotta work overtime on this one Amanda! :)
and start on the very bottom i. (Actually it is the only i word in the grid today.
Got it now!
Got the i - thx. Monkey-coffee is brewing...
Anyone remember Mr Magoo? He is in the grid, tried but won't take him lol
just read my last post - must brew some human coffee too....
Yes, I was debating whether monkey coffee would catch on.
I thought you meant your Monkey was brewing the coffee for you! :)
good morning everybody:)
Good morning jean.
Is monkey coffee made from monkey nuts? Hi jean
Good morning Jean
or monkey beans? Morning Jean...
morning all.
Morning miametro
Hi Mia!
Good morning miametro.
morning miametro
:) how is everyone today?
fine here miametro just got up need my morning fix of babble
Morning mia
Puzzled as to how to get more words out of this grid!
lol. i'm only found 15 so far but it looks to be a tricky one.
just found a new word for me, ma6/36, A brittle, flat piece of unleavened bread, eaten especially during Passover
very tricky Mia!
how many words are there today?
How many do we have to squeeze out of this one? Doin' ok, Mia, but this grid is not making for a good Monday morning...
101 words amanda.
101 words (somewehere)
that word also exists without the last letter cat
101 amanda
thanx cat9x
My monkey has gone on strike at 35 left to find. Think I will take a break for a bit.
I have the one ending in A Mia, I'll try it just dropping the t, thanks
thanks Mia!
Thanks all - at least I can say I'm more than half-way there...
Are you leaving for a bit FM? I don't blame you! This one's a toughie.
Yea, need a break but will be back in a while
bye FM :)
awwww my poor injured sparrow did die down at the vets. well at least we gave it a safe place for a while ...
Aww, sorry Ata! Later Mitch!
Awww Ata :( How very sad :( You tried, and he was safe at the end
are there any biggies in there?
yeah :( and our lovely vets would have looked after him well
2 seven letter one's , thats it.
There are only 2 7 letter words - one more amusing than the other.
:( poor little guy :(
good one Haz! *looks for less amusing one...*
I haven't got the other one yet - for the sake of my clue I hope it's humourless.
We'll both hope so - with death down there in the corner, there might be a chance...
oh, found it. great clue haz!
it's an am7/32, never heard of the word before, and can fins nothing on it's meaning, all I found on google pertains to Italian, nothing more.
Sounds like love Italian style, with a pasta ending lol
Thanks Cat - will try to get it from that.
thanks Cat - got it. Little bitty loves? Heart-shaped pasta?
Thanks, I've got it now.
maybe, some sites said traditional hearts at weddings?
you're welcome
its another word for putti
aww - I like heart-shaped pasta better...
LOL, me too!
putti are cute too!
putti-shaped pasta?
Pratchett fans alert - Atuin is in the grid!
Boy this grid is hard. Only got & have to do some work now!
just found a nice oo 6/33
thanks Mia - that one is a do6/36!
And there's a more sleepy do6/36.
and there's a wild and crazier za6/33
This grid makes me feel much more like the do6!
anyone have the ag 5?
It's a type of stone/mineral, I think.
a+tailg***
another new one for me, ag6/24, currency, starts like a Greek Marketplace?
Thx Cat - wouldn't have found that one!
fu7/44 - More comical :)
I got it by accident, kept trying to put in variant endings for the marketplace :) You're welcome!
hey everyone..hows todays grid going?
Hi aleksia! It's a tough one today
hi aleksia
Hello aleksia. We're tearing our hair out!
lol
there's a to6/24 which builds on the roman clothing
HI Aleksia
and an f4/13
Thanks Atalante.
ma5 - handicapped baby fly?
handicapped baby fly? that has to be the best clue ever!
ag6/24 - past decay
LOL amanda, great clue!
*blushes* - for grids like today's, making up clues is more fun than trying to find the words
to6 - mechanical bull?
Hi all - lovin' the clues - very funny and easy to work out
hey lynxxx
I used to wrap wires around to6's early in my "career" in Silicon Valley back in the 70's.
hi lynx
hi
hi lynxxx
hi srey
I've just been reading the chat, and the grid doesn't look too healthy this morning
Not a fun grid Wren
only managed 46 going to have to come back later lol have a good day everybody:)
oy - now I'm going to have to look up the to6...
If I remember correctly, they were circular and made of graphite?
bye jean!
I can't quite get my brain around the definition - sounds like a disc to me, but evidently it's not...
I remember them like little graphite donuts, diff sizes, would use a blueprint and have to wrap the wire, diff gauges etc, in so many wraps, so far apart, had to be tight. THey were sent to companies who wired them into their products.
I think they could also be used on wires to stop "noise" that emitted from wiring.
30+ years in Silicon Valley, thank God they weren't all on that job lol
I think I'll stick with mechanical bull...
lol
is the N a really obvoiuos word?
never realized that ro5/14, the man's name, was slang in Britain for intercouse? LOL Learn something new everyday!
Yes, think of World War 2
yes Ata, think German
Cat - I think it is an old fashioned term used among a particular social set.
I didn't know that either, Cat - thought it was in the grid as radio-speak, as in "over and out"
ooooh ty. something else that should be capitalised!
So we can have RO5.14 but not amore for AM5.12 - where has the love gone ?!
They don't deserve capitalization, Ata
True lynxxx! I thought of it also as over and out amanda.
Thanks Haz:)
You're welcome, Cat.
hmmm, tr5/20, monkey found it, but in looking it up, all i found was this? a municipality located in the Belgian province of Liège. Why is this allowed, google shows it also capitalized?
I don't know - I remember it was in the grid before so presumably there is some other meaning for it somewhere.
we had that a couple of weeks ago - if I remember correctly, it's an alt spelling for something - trousers, maybe? I had to google for quite a while to find it
yeh, and you cant put an -er on the end for trousers in Scottish.
Good morning Dachef.
thanks amanda, hi dachef!
remember the song? Donald where's yer tr5/20ers!
As sung by Andy Stewart - yes indeed!
No I missed that one Dachef! :)
"let the wind grow high, let the wind grow low, throo the streets in my kilt I'll gooo, all da lassies say hallo, Donald where's yer tr5/20ers" Ah, memories.
'Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low' and Dachef has the rest.
ah yes, blow makes much more sense. Another misheard lyric!!!!!!!!
za5/20, is that not capitalized also?
one would think so, Cat - apparently it's also the currency there
Grrr, can never get the rules straight lol
missing one ze - got the letter and the number...?
ze + not out, but **?
There's a ze 4 - z plus German one
ze + opposite of out
urghh - I hate words like that... Thx
Well, ladies and Dachef - it is time for me to do something useful about the house. I have finished - I was struck by sheer genius and just saw all the words. Lickety's list and morewords helped a bit as well! I'll check in later on when the house is a bit cleaner.
bye Haz, have a great day :)
congrats and bye Haz
Hello everyone!!
later haz - hello P!
oh yes, congrats Haz!
bye Haz!
hey mrpresident
ummm... MrP, that is...
hey mrp!
Hello MrP
ah yes, cleaning. I'll try that one day. LOL! Bye Haz.
Is the U completely obvious?
no amanda, least to me no, un plus 2 vowels
thx cat - you and monkeys to the rescue!
:) you're welcome
Alright - 88 words and list time...

Good afternoon everyone!

I'm off to a good start, only 6 words to find after an hour of playing :)
Go Kitty! That's impressive!
I did go to the list early on, as I was having a giant brain fart and not getting even obvious words
I gotta go... :((
Hello everyone!!!
How many words are there today??
Bye MrP - hi Jemma. There are 101 today, and it's a difficult one
I can tell!!Bye Mr President (:
ga6 - a franco-spanish cat?
most of the words are a little odd, but just trying random combinations of letters works pretty well
Yeah, thats what i do!!!
This really is a tricky one!!!!
Haz- are you there?
Yay! Finished! :D
Well done KittyVane, you must have been really concentrating!(-:
Is anyone there?
finished, too!
well done
thanks :)

i guess, i only have 10 words!!
ylleria- can you help me with ag 6/24
Ok everyone,(if anyone is there) i had better get going, good luck to everyone who hasn't finished. Happy Babbling Everyone!!(-:
ag 6/24 is kind of hard to clue
Ok, thats allright!! Maybe tomorrows puzzle will be a bit easier. Well i'd better go!!Goodbye Ylleria, and anyone else who is there!(:
ag + a vowel + decay
i am to tired to think!!lol
oh well....bye Ylleria, thank you anyway (:
Bye everyone!!(:
Hehe, Babble 101... I will take that course :)
And good afternoon to you all
good morning Sprite.
Good afternoon Sprite, Eva & Merp. This is the kind of grid where you see a few obvious words and then think ??? But then, it's like a door opens and the words reveal themselves.
when does the revelation occur Jac(-: 38 left and nothing to do but monkey
Mind you, by the time I'd copied down the grid I was singing 'Da Doo Ron Ron'. Must've been something to do with all to doos and roos.
Eva - 23 left here and having to peep under tiles and round corners to find 'em now!
... and if I type 'magoo' in once more, I'll scream!
if there are zoot suits shouldn't there be zoot?
Eva - I agree. That was the first word I 'saw' and tried.
Haven't got that zo5 myself yet. Just typed in 'zodit!' Well, it scores 22. :)
nope-have a za6/33 but no zo5
Got it! It begins with the place where animals are kept and is followed by a short form of identity.
thanks! Was trying to convince it to accept zoofa-a rough sponge used to wash animals, but it wouldn't go for it
One of its definitions is: An independent animallike organism produced asexually, as by budding or fission.
Eva - Is zoofa a real word? :D
no
It should be!
Not real, but lovely :)
I don't understand why it won't accept naze, which means a headland. It's in my dictionary. Grrrr!
I had a vision of a giraffe or an elephant in a showercap being zoofad.
hydra - put it down to the vagaries of the DisAble dictionary.
Do you get frustrated with it too, Jacula?
Sounds like the beginning of a joke ;)
still missing one z. Have:za6/33,ze4/9,ze4/9,ze4/9,zo5/22
Tell a webmaster 'goto' is not a word.
Eva - za5/20 - A country... where Mohammed Ali had his rumble in the jungle.
finally got that n-by trying something which I was sure would be a proper noun. Go figure
hi everyone :-)
For some completely obscure reason I want niagara.
thanks again jac
hi ginger!
hydra - all the time! I wish it would learn that 'drey' is a squirrel's home.
Hi Ginger.
Sprite - did you have to mention Niagara? I've been putting off a 'comfort break' for some time now. That's finished me off! Back in a bit... *sound of feet racing up stairs.*
101 sounds easy enough... are we dealing with obscure ones here?
Hehehe... from my fingers in your mind, Jac! Enjoy the break :)
ginger-obscure for sure
I already have 19 words. None is obscure. I think the rest is.
inua
better give th monkey a banana then!!
sorry! The first 70 or so are sane. After that it gos blooey
*hands the monkey a whole bunch of bananas*
yeah, I have 13 reasonable words lol
monkey says ty Sprite!
well-my back is killing me so I think I'll get up andmove around for a while. see you all later.
I hardly slept tonight. Some moronic football fans here think that every game should be broadcasted over the whole street, with yells and curses, until 4 am. I am SO glad we are no longer in the running!
Aww Eva... good luck with that. Nasty thing, pain in the back.
Hey, I found a 7 and I am smiling :)
I've found fireworks!!
can u tell me what it starts with plz!!
yay FMitch! HEllo all.
why cant have Zoid?
got the fu7/44
Hi all - that was quite a toughie today, lots of babble words.
what's the other 7 please?
anyone!!!
am7/32
Hooray, FMitch: nice job! I just logged on and have zero words. Greetings, all.
am/7 i have no idea yet wiil look now x hi everyone
ty
Greetings Aloy
... you could say today's grid is a real do6/36
Hi FMitch..Cloudy, misty morn here.. good for Babbling.. (-:
Anyone got a clue for the tr5/10 please?
am7 is the Italian for love plus the end of a popular drink beginning with Ma
trick or tr5/10.
Halloween, hydra. Trick or tr5/10
ty,,, got it as u put clue in
Oh, I'm so stupid. IIjust didn't see it. Thanks ever so, sprite.
yw :) And that's not stupid, that's perfectly normal babble behaviour.
There is a za6/33 that take the fu7 to crazier levels.
Ah, is that what it means! Strange word!
sprite - have you sudoku'd today? Is it a medium medium?
It is, FMitch. Pretty straightforward, you need to reason out 1 single number and then the rest follows.
ta :)
good evening everybody
Hi aleksia How are you finding the grid today?
Hiya, everyone!!!!!!
abit hard FMitch
Hey movie!
Hey mm - When Harry met Sayy by any chance? It is a hard one today aleksia
*Sally
yer what do you think about it?
I've found the amusing 7, but, despite Hydra's clue earlier, I still can't fathom out the am7, further hints plz? p.s. That is perfectly correct, FMitch.......
Hi movieman and aleksia.. I have just started, too..
Movie: god of love + not out + vowel.
Hi everyone. Thanks Sprite - great clue
reza
oops - sorry!
thanks, Sprite
not a real word anyway
yw :)
Where has summer gone? Oh yes, Wimbledon stated today - thats why it's pouring down!!
Got it at last, ty Sprite.....
I really really thought mortage was a word!
I saw amortize.
This is a teazer grid if I ever saw one.
Don't mock the rain - i've only just stopped a marathon 2 month sneezing binge!
*sends the sun to Becca*
aw, thanks sprite
Becca, I know what you mean, never suffered with hayfever until this year and it's awful.
yeah me too - I have to take a box of tissues everywhere i go.
That's funny, FMitch, same here. Never had hayfever and all of a sudden this year: bingo.
Aparently it can hit you at any age and this has been a bumper year for pollen.
I did not like sneezing, but I simply hated the inflammation of the eyes.
if there's this much pollen this year, will we all be buried under plants next year?
I think we collected most of the pollen in our noses, between us 3 ;)
LOL I sneezed so hard yesterday my chair (on wheels) moved backwards.
yeah, probably! As long as we don't grow stuff up our noses!
Hehe, must have been a sight, but it doesn't feel comfortable ;)
Okay, let's compare bellybuttons. I'd say mine is innier than yours. But babble doesn't think so.
Ah but if you drop a letter you will find our dear friend the hairly nosed dolphin!
sorry not drop a letter but word that sounds similar 1/4/
Thanks :)
I made a mess of that one i4/4 .. sometime wish I hadn't started typing
tx, FMitch.. bbl... coffee time..
I am glad you did, FMitch, I didn't have the dolphin yet.
Well thats OK then!
ExWren would hate this grid!
Why? there are only 2 re's today
She's not the only one, I hate the grid and now I can't even get the clues *sighs*
Yeah, and about a 100 that are not valid.
Ah LOL Hi katie
Hi FMitch :-)
good morning all!
Thoughts on the match yesterday in less than 20 words?
I can do a cockney spelling for re - anyone want a xmas *reaf*?
Now eating a M&S trifle, feeling better. Match was rubbish, Beckham being sick was gross, but at least we won!!
iv seen chocolate teapots play better fmitch!!
20 to go. See everyone later....
what match?!!!
bye charm!
af5?
CJ - what's af***?
FMitch - average as usual, probably go out to Portugal in quarters, just like Euro 2004!!!!!!
af5/16 please?
God love you Becca, are you not english and if you are how did you miss all the hype?
Hi folks. I'm back to find some more of my missing 17.
The game's a****.
hi jac! thanks for that af5
LOL Becca Hi Fran Bye Charm LOL crayfish and katie I am glad I missed that particular bit on the TV
A + Rooney or Beckham's f***!;)
Hi FranMag.
hi fmitch!
Jacula - yes, I am English - I live in a house with no TV and no newspapers which makes it quite easy to avoid football - not my cup of choc teapot
cheers
FMitch - see my comment on England v Ecuador?
lol!!
Becca - Katie asked you, not me.:)
Sorry mm missed yr post, let's hope not!
Oh sorry - getting mixed up. Katie - see my comment below to Jacula
Well, FMitch, here it is again: FMitch - average as usual, probably go out to Portugal in quarters, just like Euro 2004!!!!!!
anyone got a clue for am7/32 please?
Lets hope not!!! mm
Becca, that makes sense I think that was the only way you could miss it :-)
Beckham was sick? Eurgh, I'm glad I didn't see that. I was Babbling in another room and reporting on the yells and groans coming from the sitting room during the match... 'GO ON!', 'OHHHHHHHH!', YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!', 'Oh GOD! and the like. Didn't really need to watch it with Paul commentating.:)
ooh, world cup talk- go england!
who is everyone rooting for? (for those of us who care)
Jacula - it wasn't the best time to be eating Pizza, you've never seen appetites go so quickly ;-)
If I stand outside during an England match I can hear every other male in the district commentating, too.
I need one more to finish...ag6 anyone?
Calqhoon - sprite gave a grat clue not that long abo but I can't pinpoint it in the log.
There's a collective male roar when there's a goal or a roar, dying down to a groan when there's a miss.
Calq: god of love + not out + vowel
Grace - A long time a** + to decay
being in the U.S. stinks a bit during the world cup. american's don't care about soccer
phantom word: zinnia
I tried that twice, Aloyisius :)
WooHoo! Thx FMitch...I'm done!
heehee, me too
wtg, Grace!
AAHHHHH - I've not even heard of the phantom words today, never mind the ones in the grid
yay aloyisius and graceM!!!
Congrats Grace!!!
my monkey is exhausted!
Congrats Grace
Congrats Aloyisius
what are phantom words?
Hi FranMag... I'm NOT done.. I've just begun!(I meant that I had tried the phantom word, not that I finished. (-:)
words that you think you see but aren't on the board
words that you think are in the grid but are not, yet you keep typing them anyway.
I swear there's only about 50 recognizable words in there today!
Phantom words are ones that at first seem to be in the grid, but after closer inspection, they're not....
thx bluephlox - i have lots of those!
phantom words: words that pretend to be in the grid, but sneekily disappear as soon as you enter them
And mm!
...and you keep typing them 'just in case'
ohhhh, sorry aloyisius! well if i don't see you finish consider it early congratulations then! :-)
Cluez for the u and the i plz?
MM - the i's quite like that z flower just mentioned.
morning!
fran, what time is it there?
Had to resort to the list, ae 4/4 proves that I should not bother any more, if I can't get that what can I!!
it's almost 2:30, can't sleep.
aww
Both babblets, movieman. i = the hairy nosed dolphin, u = the two-toed sloth
magoo isnt there :(
hints before I go?
MM - the un word is a variant on the spelling of a fast-movin sloth (fast.. sloth??). It's a normal Babblet.
It is, CJ, it's just not valid!
i think since the grid's so small, i'm going to save it for later. going to do the second coat on the dining room ceiling, and then start the walls today. WOO HOO!
ag words bar the old one?
Its there but I want it to be valid :)
I don't get the hairy nosed dolphin clue, *sobs quietly in the corner*
i'm baaaack :D
Fmitch's clue for the ag6: A long time a** + to decay
katie: not out + sound of the donkey
featherbee don't be fooled I'm still on 36 words and have been working on it for ages
katie - it took me ages to get that one. Now i'm trying to learn about sloths!
be back later! fran, i hope you get some sleep soon! (katie, yeah, i was thinking that too!)
later feather!!
I've now got my colleague making donkey sounds in the office, worth the entrance fee alone!!
LOL!
bye all!
tip for the donkey sound: two vowels!
bye grace
bye grace
Another phantom word: faerie :(
Yep, Sprite, I keep 'seeing' that, too.
yeah, i tried that too sprite
And that's a world I love, so I am double :(
did everyone find the t5, loose fitting pants word?
i swear these words are made up!
I second that, Becca. Lots of unwords today.
anyone got a clue for the am7/32 please?
I got it........Yeah!! Colleague suggested looking on web site for donkey sounds, I did point out that the web sites we were likely to get would result in us both being sacked :-)
Calqhoon: I posted a clue when you asked the last time.
phantom: agitate
Lol katie, that's wise of you!
sorry sprite, i didnt see it and its gone off the bottom now. I'm at work and someone was at my desk :S
Sprite, thank you for the clue
Once more for Calq ;) Am7 = god of love + not out + vowel.
yw katie!
i still havent got the sloth - any more clues gratefully received
Is it just me, or is the site going very, very slowly...
thanks sprite, dunno how i didnt get that, thought i'd tried everything
just you matty - is it your computer?
i'm having some connection problems also
sloth U4: prefix meaning 'not' + help minus last letter
thx sprite, got it. Another word I'd swear is made up
More phantom words: adagio and retain
Good clue sprite, my computer is fine it's just me being slow
Remember them, Becca. They are babblets, aka as recurring nightmares ;)
Darn, it won't let me have Maori.
well, someone said it earlier; the first 70 go quickly, and then.. oh, oh.. (-: I'm at oh oh now.. nose to the "gridstone".. thanks, sprite... I got a word from your phantoms, (shortened)
Sprite, isn't the god of love Eros?
I don't think I'll ever forgive the person that intro'd me to Babble. I'm addicted now!
YoBaby: yes, but he has another name too.
shucks. I'll go back to google!
Gotta go back to work, have a mighty 40 words now so will bbl to spend the entire evening trying to get the others!!
later katie!
1m a quarter of teh way there!
bye katie
Got it, Sprite. Thx.
If I remember well, YoBaby, Eros is the greek name and you need the latin one here.
More like the Italian for love...
phantom - goitre
lol matty... Italian is THE Roman language par excellence. The love word comes from the latin god!
jac, it won't take maori, but a white supremacist works!
What about zoot?
I have this crazy self-imposed rule that I have to find at least one word from each box before I give myself a break. Thus, desperately need a clue for the N?
Got all my m's now but thanks FranMag.
i've tried this word about 10 times...nine
yeah, yobaby, zoot suit
Munner: think World Wars and the most nasty people from that time.
Munner - think of the baddies in WWII.
I thought that was a proper noun. Thanks Jac
Jac: GMTA ;)
Great, I'm halfway now, so time to do some real work. TTFN
my phantom word is rain
morning everyone
after noon
Hey Angel
hi angelsong
you, too, Sprite. Your hint came up so fast that I had missed it.
anyone got a clue for ao6/18 please? its driving me nuts
good morning, everyone!
hi annie!
large artery in the heart
Calqhoon: latin plural of the Ao5.
Hey annie
ohhhhh... thanks, wouldnt have got that in a million years
phantom: remote
Me either, Calqhoon. Thanks Annie and Sprite.
This grid has more phantom words than real ones!
hehe sure does
This one wins the stupidhead word award for today: Tr5/20. Alt. spelling of close-fitting tartan trousers, worn esp. by certain Scottish regiments.
7 left to go but my tum tells me it wants lunch, in fact, s becoming quite insistent... BBL
looked for that one as soon as i saw the Z, it was my favorite word when it was in a grid a couple of weeks ago.
later jac!
Only reason I found it was because it's been in other grids indeed, Fran :)
Alright. We know it has a t, r, and z. What's it rhyme with?
phantom word is magazine today
well, i've entered the same fa4/8 five times, i think it's time to sleep!
Actually, I think I have acquired a babble brain. I found the trousers before I found the beautiful big cat.
tx, sprite: seems you should be able to put an "er" on the end of that stupid word, but, noooooo
yobaby, rhymes with a game played on a table like hockey
Hi all - does anyone have the elusive TO6,21?
Aloyisius: or even -ier! But nooooo :( YoBaby: it's tight trousers, but rhymes with the opposite of tight!
Rhymes with clues :P
lynxxx: urface generated by a closed curve rotating about, but not intersecting or containing, an axis in its own plane.
Just monkeytyped the to 6/21
just got it lynxxx
good night all!!
But I always think To6 means bull-like.
sleep well, FranMag..
good morning, everyone =)
Got it. Thx!
I, too, think of it as a bull's card with personal data on it!
what, no volcano today? ah, but there is the familiar to4...
Aloyisius: to4, i4, u4, all babblets to make up for the missing vulcano ;)
man, 'Troma' should so be in there :)
how about "matador" for a phantom? I think I've had too much coffee..
i've come to expect the volcano. it gives me a confidence boost for grids like these
I finally did get it after I changed directions! Finished but does anyone want anything before I go.
hi, abe
Phantom: diagram
Yeah lynxxx!
hi aloyisius! hi everyone!
bravo, lynxxx!
Mornin, abe
I like magoo, too...
hi abe
hi munner and annie!
hi munner, how is the day going?
Aloy - take Mr ma and change the last letter for a 5/16
phantom: magazine
Hi, Annie. Awake about an hour, good so far. Lots to do today as I have 2nd chemo tomorrow.
ooh, FMitch.. tx! (nasty images with that one)
good thoughts for you tomorrow, munner
((((Munner))))
ditto Anniebrook, Munner.. don't overdo..
And finished!
yay sprite
congrats, sprite
huzzah, sprite!
Woohoo sprite!!
Can I help out on clues before I leave?
Oh, sprite, you always finish.
I know, shutterbug. Comes from being unable to stop before all words are used up ;)
doesnt look like a very hard grid today, huh?
Looks can be deceiving, shutterbug!
this is my first time and I am LOST!
Argh, indybehr, this is a nasty grid to start with! Don't let it discourage you, usually the grids are nicer.
amen, sprite..
zoot is not in the word list, hmmm, "zoot" suit of the late 40's
YEAH I got a 7/44
slang
Good job :)
Hello, indy.
hi
Okay, going once... going twice...
welcome to babble.
thanks, just stumbled in
...going for real! Have fun and happy hunting all.
which is cool becuase I LOVE word puzzles
bye sprite
welcome, indy
bye, sprite.. have a great day!
I feel another addict coming up... ;) Welcome, indy!
this is a fun game insy.
*Indy*
The key word here is addictive!
LOL - I am finding that out!
I keep seeing the word "zenith"... not an H in the grid... *must find glasses*
I'm back. Just had fresh cherries covered with Greek yoghurt & honey. Getting in practice for my hols.:)
Welcome indy, if you find yourself getting addicted like the rest of us (be warned) you might want to take a look at Angels links below - lots of useful hints and tips.
Not long to go now Jacs!!
Hi Mitch and Jacula!
Has anyone warned indy that there is no 'out' door in Babbleonia??:-) Welcome indy.
Hi Annie.
Morning Annie
FMitch - No. I should be packing really but the bed is covered in necklaces etc., at present. I turned out the whole drawer earlier, looking for a particular necklace to pack.
indybear - i stumbed here too a few days ago and havent left :)
LOL - DAMN I am in trouble!
behr even, sorry :)
either is fine with me
The dormitories are comfy, Cal. LOL.
why are you in trouble?
because I am already addicted to this!
Hi all How many words in this one I still have not been activated yet
We told you so!
indie is getting bitten by the babble bug!!
101, tiny
Thanks Mollusk
tiny, did you go pro?
can anyone clue me on the ATs please, not the a***-bomb one. Theyre driving me crazy, not even the monkies can get them.
I got bitten by the Babble bug 6 days ago and think I'll have to join a BA group soon
so has anyone found the 13 letter word yet?
there is no 13 letter word today.
so if the boxes are grayed out that means no words of that length
add slang for mum on end Cal
correct.
Yes shutterbug last week but I was told that I would probably get on today but not yet
zoot
Oh, I thought the changes took plaxe immediately.
OOps sorry
good guess,tiny but it doesnt work.
I know
Someone, please give me a firm nudge to leave my computer and start a load of laundry...
Tiny - Magoo doesn't work either. LOL
My activation was immediate, was i just lucky or something? And I still can't get these AT words :(
tell ya what, Munner, I have to get to the gym, so I'll go to the gym and you do laundry, and we'll meet back here shortly :)
Do you need clothes to wear if so do your washing
My activation was immediate, too. I was surprised. pleased, though.
Munner - only if you nudge me in the directionof the pile of laundry I threw down the stairs about 2 hours ago...
gotta work my body as well as my mind (though working the mind is so much more fun)
ahh got both the at4s now :)
I payed by B-Pay and it takes longer or something like that
nudging, starting to stand up, turning the chair...
ohh, activation on the paid accounts. gotcha.
tiny, did you use bidpay? i thought they closed.
HA HA Jacula
"tazer" is too a word!
*As Munner nudges Jac's chair away from the keyboard, she stretches out her arms to reach the keys... 'But I only have 3 left to find!'*
Munner - how nay words do you have elft to find?
No sorry I used Pay-Pal
FMitch must be hiding behind her monitor and trying to type from there. LOL.
Good afternoon all - Calqhoon, may I help with the at words?
Oh, paypal, thats the best!
Hi Haz.
yes please haz, only got the 5 letter one to get
yeah just takes time
Hello Jacula - enjoying the grid?
maybe you paid by e-check and thats why it takes time?
indy, so true, but there is only 1 dictionary behind this grid (Enable) and it is so hit and miss. LOL Jacs Afternoon Haz, nice to see you.
what are at words?
because if you use your credit card it should go right through.
indy, words that start with AT
at5/10 - plural (latin) of a courtyard. Add the last part of the West side story heroine
go to: http://licketysplitaus.googlepages.com /babbleclues.html
or just go to the link in Friends of Babble
I dont know but I will give it a few more days then ask the man himself Dr_God I do not have a credit card only passbook account
Haz - Yes, it's an interesting grid. I really should be packing for my hols and doing washing, ironing etc. though.
oh, then if you paid by e-check, it takes 4-5 days before your payment clears.
yeah what a pain
And you do realise that you'll be washing and ironing all the stuff all over again at the end of the holiday?
Haz - Thanks for that little reminder!
Just to cheer up your day!
Gee your nice to do the reminding Haz
toro
Fireworks for me! The last word, rather aptly, as the 1st do6/36.
I know. I specialise in cheering people.
Sorry again I dont realize I have not moved the silly cursor
Congratulations Jacula!
Haz, thanks for the clue but I'm still stumped. I've got the ending, just the rest is a blank :S
Congrats Jacs Hi Haz
Well Done Jacula
WTG jacula :)
bravo, Jac!
congrats, jacs! and hi all!
at plus three letters at the end of Ma*** (try the Sound of Music woman to see if that takes any better!)
hi, TO..
Tempting though it is to stay, to my packing I must away. If I'm not packed before Paul's home, he might fret and gnash, and foam!
Hello FMitch - I see you conquered the grid earlier.
jacs: what is your icon?
I'm sorry for that dreadful rhyme. I do such things all the time.
Great Haz, thanks very much, silly me was putting too many letters in :)
happy packing, jac; will you be babbling on hols?
My icon, TO, is me 2 days ago.
Thanks yes I did, and you too Haz!!!
Aloy - No Babbling allowed in Crete.:(
Hi can I please get a clue for the 2nd tr5?
ah....how long is your hol - lucky you!
Glad you got there Calqhoon!

Bye jacula have a good holiday and relax
bye noe!

There isn't one Calq
Not really - there are no such words. There are 3 ze4/9 if that's what you need?
Sorry, both the ZAs. :)
za5/20 - better known as an African country, this is also their currency. za6/33 - more madcap
thanks
Beat me to it Haz LOL
Race you for the ze words!

Thanks Haz
No fair - Im on the phone
Cheers Haz, got them both now :)
I'm on the phone to a customer at work right now haha. Nothing like slacking to round-off the day.
You're welcome !
I'm only missing 1 of the ZEs. Anyone want clues?
I have all the z words all 6
phantom: unfair :)
who's phantom
oh, man... now I see those little ma*** balls in some nice hot soup..
A phantom is a word that you keep seeing, but isn't really in the grid
LOL Tiny - it not a whom but a phantom word!
I'm haunted :(
My phantom word is fountain,
mine is magazine
I only have two of the z words
I have 3 z words.
i have 5/6 z words and i'm stumped for the last one 8-(
My phantom is magazine
insy do you have the one that means nothing?
yup shutterbog got that one
and the african country
shutterbug even

yes tiny
I dont have an african country

I'm not good at geography

what the heck is THAT one. Misu?
3vowels and a connsonant
Hello Ginger - am plus two letter word for alternative, then the ending of tiny car (sixties icon)
sorry 3 za+2vowels and a conssonant
Hi Haz... and thank you :-)
And to add to Haz's clue, sounds like it should mean tiny love
Apparently they're heart shaped 'things' served at Italian weddings. Maybe more details will emerge from those who know these things.
The mind boggles... or rather, babbles.
well you learn something new everyday don't you Haz!!!
did you get it shutterbug
Yes, you do, Ginger.
no, still cant figure it out.
GOT IT
67 more to go!
65 here!
52 for me
do4/5 is annoying me, not the one that sounds like a seafaring vessel.
c'mon Haz can you explain the za country
or portal :)
how many letters long is the country again?
5
only 5
It's a country, known at one time as the Belgian Congo. za plus a word meaning anger.
JUST GOT IT!
za5/20 - Coutnry in Africa or za + to be angry
YEAH!!!!
I would have never known it was a country though.
Hurray for shutterbug!
YEAH Shutterbug
you learn something new every day
done with the z words now.
LMAO - doesn't r5/14 mean to shag in England
see wasn't that hard was it
no, not very
indy, yeah, it does :)
or it is a man's name!
rota
OOPS
sorry~
sorry I typed that in the wrong BOX
Hi everyone. Can't stop babbling today - very bored at work
Hi Becca Lots of us dip in and out of babble during the day.
my phantom is razor lol
HI Fmitch - glad to see someone else still here from earlier
LOL Have been away doing other things but always have babble running in the background.
I'm supposed to be doing other things, but babble seems to be in the foreground today!
How are you getting on with the grid so far Becca?
back for my last few :)
got 38 to go, but i'm not a pro, and i have a very slow brain, so i'm guzzling up clues
I am down to 61 left
Thas good going for a grid like todays! Hey Ata :)
how are you getting on Fmitch?
i'm stuck on the GE word. any clues please?
4 to go, and I must too! bye, babblers...
bye aloy
Bye Aoly I finished a while ago Becca
Send me good word vibes then FMitch!
ge + very short form of thankyou
Night everybody hope the babbling goes well!!!
bye unicorn
Time for me to be off too TTFN
bye aloyisius and unicorn
bye FMitch
byeeee!
Bye FMitch - I'll be heading off soon myself.
I just got on and everybody is leaving?
It's not deliberate!
oh, ok, good ... phew ... I was worried their for a second. hehe
bye fmitch
whee, just broek the half way mark
are there any M6s??
why oh oh why will this dictionary accept some proper nouns (the former Belgian Congo, for example), and not others??? (rhetorical question..thanks for letting me vent)
because that is also the name of their currency
oh, ok...I'll accept that :)
but why some foreign words and not others...and the acronyms...and the words that the dictionary doesn't even recognize..."did you mean...."
oo5/12 any clues please
I'm with you on that one Krista. Like no def for the am7/32
Apparently the am7/32s are served at italian weddings Becca.
That's it for today folks - I have the fireworks!
hmm...just got on..will have to find that one first...but thanks for commiserating...think this poison ivy rash is getting to me
Congrats Wren!!
are there any M6s??
Thanks Calq - will have to try and find some to try!
any clues for the AG6 plz?
yay exwren!
but no "amore" allowed :)
oo + consonant + freudian term
jakes-mum. Great clue given earlier: long ag + decay
ty munner!
please please please could someone tell me whether there are any M6s? Please?
Thanks abe :)
there is one MA6 atalante
ma6/36
ata - just one - really obscure word (if you get this without the points total I'll eat my own feet).
there is one. ma 6/36, but don't have it yet
thank you!!! ok, there's a challenge, dachef! *runs to try and find it*
TYabe79 never would have got that
Ma6/36 is apparently a jewish dumpling
got it lol
i'mjewish and i don't get it
yw majmom and calq- i credit the monkeys for that one!
i thought it had an "h" on the end of it
you gave it away mentioning points, dachef!
I got it. Thanks.
ok. i got it....not a dumpling. and I've not seen it with the consonant on the end, but I'm not all that religious
just got it, too..weird
I only got 5/22 for that one tho
indy - add a consonant to the end
it's a variant spelling on that one
got it
If I ever get to use that word in conversation, I'll be amazed. "Could someone pass the ma6/36's please?" "oh no, I couldnt possibly eat another ma6/36" - no, it aint gonna happen.
like yesterday
there are 2 ma5/22 associated with it
oops - like yesterday's "nerts" and a variant of the expression "nuts"
I've heard that one
ta 5/14 anyone?
**as** as variant...really?
no - I've heard "nerts"
well, Jewish people eat them instead of bread during passover--and make pancakes out of m**** meal, and dumplings in the chicken soup, made out of the ma*** meal
not allowed leavened bread, only ma*** for eight days every spring
i knew what you meant, indy...I just can't type today!
people use ma5/22 for communion in church.
Atalante..can't find the second 5/22...could you give me a subtle hint, please?
Hi every1. I'm back from the lake to do laundry. I met 2 people over the weekend who play Babble! How fun is that?
phantom: retina
can't really give a *subtle* hint, but change the last letter of the other one!
gramma, what fun! And how is Eleanor? Love that name.
LOL - ty Atalante!....Hi Gramma...you find a way to work Babble into conversations, huh? Bet you missed it.
krista, change the last letter of your first one to a different vowel.
She's GREAT......thanks for asking. How are you doing w/your battle?
thanks, shutterbug...still trying (get the fish ready)...
let me know when your ready.......
anyone got the IN word please? it's killing me, i've monkey-typed for a good 15 minutes
Good. Have my second chemo tomorrow so am getting things done to get through the next three weeks. Had a great weekend--overdid, of course. Kept three grandchildren overnight. My husband and I took them to pick strawberries and blackberries. Made the most delicious strawberry ice cream yesterday.
Krista, I do really miss it. There's plenty to keep me busy, but I do so enjoy this silly game.
its a babblet - in + 2 vowels
**flinching and wincing*** got it! Hit me!
thanks atlante, got it :)
A day with Babble is much worse than a day without sunshine!
could i have a hint for the second RO4/5 plz?
Munner, you'll need that icecream to keep up your strength.
gramma, you are definitely my kind of lady.
Me too, Gramma. It's a real guilty pleasure for me...Munner..so sorry for what you are going through. I have been there myself (Hodgkin's Disease). Chemo is brutal.
Oh, I htink I give up for now - got 35 to go, but must do real work or I'll get the sack. Bye everyone
Doing well now, Krista?
jakes-mum, is it the homophone for to describe someone who is boorish?
38 left for me to go.
bye becca - I'm off here for a while, now, too..Yes, it has been almost 18 years. I had a scare a few months ago, but it was a benign nodule. it's always in the back of my mind, as I'm sure you understand.
could I get some z clues? (hi, everyone!)
need 26 here but an trying to escape the magnetic force keeping me in this computer chair.
herp, one means nothing.
thats ze 4/9
*Harp*
another is a place to keep animals and what your drivers license is also for
Catch you all later...you will probably be finished by then, and the chatterbox empty...
one z is catherine z*** jones
bye, Krista
thanks for that z5, indy
Why not zoot? Didn't people wear zoot-suits?
and one rhymes with the german no
another z is a protein from Indian corn, a ze 4/9
i know, gramma, that really bothers me
gramma, someone said that ealier.
thanks ch1212
didn't have that one
oops! sorry, shutterbug. I just got here.
one more z and I am done with them
zoot is a slang term
thats ok, I was just going to say "Great minds think alike"
what was it named after? was there a Mr Zoot or something so that it really should be Zoot suit?
clue for the zo word please!!
ata, it was a jazz word in the 1940's and they named a type of suit after it
Atalante, the history of the Zoot Suit is that it came from Mexico in the 1940's -- it's associated with the rise of gangs out of Texas and Los Angeles, but that's an undeserved reputation.
Well, nertz to the babble powers that be!
9:47 Indy's clue
I agree then!
That's for the zo word
a place to keep animals + what your social security number is
ag 6/24, di 6/24, or ga 6/27 anyone?
I know this only because in my last job I helped put together an educational video on Hispanic gangs in the U.S., and we studied the history and rise of those gangs.
you should never give your social security number out, btw
well that's my new fact for the day - ty!
Ok clue for TA5/14 plz (down to my last two words!)
ag 6/24, good clue earlier: long ag + decay
Thanks Munner
russian land
i don't get that at all
ta 5/14
Dorens, great clue. I had monkeytyped to no avail.
thanks
indy... how old ar eyou... your ag* + decay
GOT IT thx munner
and dorens
any clue for the z 6/33?
ohh ty dorens!
final word
congrats
TA6/24 any clues
make that TO6/24
Dorens, I am not getting your ta 5/14 clue...can you help me a little more please?
never mind, found the za 6!!
I didn't get it either, JeeWhiz
WAHT IS IT?
the za 6??
T + an anagram for the five letter word beginning with A which means one more time (minus the N)
Gramma, glad to hear there is someone else who thinks (or doesn't) like me...sounds like others got it easily.
za6/36 clownish
the za 6/33 means more silly, like craz*** except start with the 4 letter za word that means silly or crazy
that was easy - can't believe i didn't see that
dorens, still not getting it....I know which anagram word you are speaking of, but can't get the letters to work...Is it ta + Consonant + 2 vowels?
ta + vowel + cons + vowel
no, ta + vowel + consonant + vowel
a geography word
Okay, got it, thanks.
(I once taught geography)
never heard that word before.
I still need TO6/24 plz!!
AM7? please.
add on from the roman clothing, JM
Sorry don't have it jakes mum
to + another word for door into a garden (for example)
me neither
jakes-mum, to + ga4/6
ty everyone!! fireworks YAY!
just got the to...ty every1
50 left for me!
WTG, jakes-mum!!!
How about the di6 please?
nice one, indy :) 51 meself
yayyyy jakes mum
di6 - small microscopic things. di + v small building block
any clue for the "u" word
Thanks Atalante
thanks atalante that is a word i heard in physics class a LONG time ago
un + 2 vowels
clue for the ga6 please?
Sorry don't have the ga6
Ata think of the french for a cake
I did one of my big fieldwork assignments on them for my degree a few years ago - I always see it immediately in the grids!
Atlante, I am not good in physics, and am not seeing it, can you lead me a bit more please?
ohhhhh so obvious! thank you FM!
di+the smallets possible particle
I'm in the same boat as JW :/
Thanks FMitch....easy once you clued it.
its di + at4/4 - like the **** bomb
ooooh, I get it
thanks!!
yw :)
Okay, now I got it...thanks so much!
not seeing hte french cake thing
indy, swinging fence door + vowels
to --- it is also a crime
now I don't get the swinging fence door reference
remember in Ghostbusters, Zuhl was the ****keeper
sometiimes, to get through a fence, you need to open the ....
yeah I got that one
oh, i got the french cake, was thinking of another one w/o the e at the end, thanks!
so can you only use each letter once per word?
the hardest thing about today's grid, for me, is I see ALL sorts of great words... but none of them can be made
correct, indy
it's driving me nuts
dang - tomato is a GREAT word
doesn't that always happen, mollusk?
hello can I have a clue for the at5? Please
yes, but today moreso than usual, for me at least
jfarber, you here? wanted to congratulate you on making it to summer vacation!
it seems i always find more words that ARen't there than are....at least it seems that way
at 5 - think of the entryway into a building, often a large space with plants called the at**** -- now lose the last 2 letters and attach the first vowel
be back later --
bye ch
thank you
anyone got a clue for to4/8 please? the monkeys just arent working
calq- used in vegetarian cooking
Cal, it is the gross bean curd
thanks folks, didnt see that :)
me neither
I am here...just trying to manage household at the same time. Hi, Krys!
to 5/10 or to 6/21 please?
Don't forget that the tile values can help on the words sometimes
hah, i cant believe it's taken me 'til right near the end to get the TI word. now it seems so obvious
the feline one?
yeah :)
funny you should say that... i don't have the ti word, now I'm challenged
Summer vacation rocks...but staying home with two kids and a new home that needs upkeep isn't really the lazy summer I used to have.
how's summer been to you, JF?
oh no, indy, you spoiled it for me (just kidding)
ma5/16 has me stumped. Any clues?
dorens...kitty cat
sounds like you've traded it in for a different kind of summer fun :)
no, i have it....but wanted to do it without clue, thanks
chiley...sounds like an insect that gathers on dead animals.
think of a fly larva minus one consonant
So far, -- and only a week -- it's pretty decent, though. Slept 'til 11.
sorry dorens
no, no problemmm
sorry
ah...right before my eyes...thanks
I am still new at this
I really want magazine to be here
to 5/10 or to 6/21 please?
but it's not :(
the 5/10...think of the mystical fortune cards, change first vowel
(Krys: moving over to aim -- need a minute to settle 3-year-old first; see you there...)
Thanks Dorens
yw
JF - I just logged on
how many D6s are there please?
to6/21 = t04/4 + opp of ego.
4 Atalante
ta5/14 please?
thanks fmitch
me too, thanks fmitch
glad to help :)
ta 5/14---geographical term... in russia, mainly
Dorens or fmitch, do you have the other to5/10? Thanks....(not the one like the mystical cards that Dorens clued previously)
no, sorry
All I know is that it uses the t in the next to last row.
hmm, I must not have the right to 4 to make the to 6
there is a to4/4 and then the to 5/10 follows it and the only diff is that the last letter is repeated. Sounds like another name for the Conservative Party in the UK
all right, thanks fmithc.
Thanks FMitch, that was it!!
magic - wan't sure if that would work or not.
okay... going to go clean the flat, then I'll come back when I'm feeling more objective
uncagain, use the top left corner
sigh, one of these days, one of those words is going to jump up and bite me
The to4 sounds like a lawnmower name
It actaully has quite a few meanings if you click on the ? next to the word.
thanx
i can't believe i've been doing this for nearly a month and never noticed the ? next to the word. DUhh...thanks fmitch, once again
these D6s are stupid words. at least 2 of them are!
Dorens, the puzzle is so fun, it is easy to miss such trivial things.
well, off to teach bowling. Good babbling to all
right, i just enjoy the searching and the chatting so much...i bet there's lots i never noticed....yesterday was the first day i figured out how to use lickety's list...which was necessary with THAT many words..
any clues floating around for the am 7? Please and thanks!
i saw a cllue when i first came on about them being served at italian weddings, never did get it though
a lover of pasta was the clue given earlier
LOL Dorens, enjoyment of the game is the main thing :)
I am not enjoying it lol! Can't find my last word and its a T4!
it monkeys pretty easily with the lover of pasta clue
still can't get the ta russian forest one, any more clues please folks, only 11 words left and 15 mins to get them before i go home from work, haha
is the server really slow or is it just me?
It just had a big hic up Golux
T + anagram the word that means once more (beginning with an A) minus the N, Cal
okay, calqhoon -- the ta 5/14 = ta + 3rd vowel + first two letters for another word for an outdoor door, like one into a garden.
first four letters another word for love leave out the u then addvowel consonnantvowel
sorry that was for a7
sorry for the great clues, i think i've given up on that one though haha, my brain's fried
ahhh, got it, Tiny --- thanks! (Took me long enough, and I was even vacationing in Italia last Fall --- you'd think I would have picked up the pasta lovers clue!)
Hi everyone. I'm back (again) can't stay away today
your welcome
calqhoon, here's the easier version: ta + 3rd vowel + 7th letter of the alphabet, plus 1st vowel ... :)
Italian wedding thing: Latin for "I love" + first name of singer Lopez (drop the first letter)
woo i monkeyed my way there, thanks CH1212 and t'others
i have 31 left and swore to myself that i wasjust sitting down for tenminutes...didn't bother looking at the clock..when i get to 30 i swear (and this time i mean it) i am getting off
sure, dorens, sure ... :)
lol
that is OK dorens I Stubmled Upon here this morning and have not left yet!
i am sitting here looking at the I. and wondering why one I can't use the belly button type that works there
yeah me too
probably because we can't use the outtie either ;)
damn, I think it's time for me to give up for the day. might be on later if my gf will let me, but i doubt it haha. Damn, only 9 to go as well. Never mind.
great minds think alike dorens,,,im going at 30 lol
don't give up calq!
I'll be happy to get to 40
yah, i think there's a law about quitting with less than ten to go
Hi, can somebody please help with oo5/12 and oo6/33?
i'm leaving work in a few mins anyway, gotta go. Thanks for all the help folks.
the o is a comparative... more yucky?
oo6/33 is more of your oo4/9 ...
oh, well if you do this at WORL
oo6/33 = oo4/9 only more so
now, can you help with the oo5 ?
oo + consonant + freudian term
add the endire to make something more than something else to oo4/9
ending that is
yeah i do this at work heheh. if they payed me more i'd work harder. G'night all.
ah, thanks abe79!
night
abe, I saw this clue earlier and I still don't get it. I don't know any Freudian terms!
what do you need to prove your age becca?
what is your drivers license also used for?
Got it! Thanks
becca, a freudian term is a two letter word that means when you get carded in a bar you have to show your **
ahhhhh. finally got down to 30---time to get something done around here.....i'll be back much later..good luck to all
adios dorens
bye dorens
Got the oo's, thanks abe and indy

how come the word tean is not allowed
it is not a word
teat
sorry
take the latinword for love and add a diminutive ending
well it should be LOL
...but if you don't know that...?

yeah. ...oh! there it is. thanks
no
OK I need the last "o" word
use the 4/9 and expand to make it more
I have one more f to get, i have 4*4/7, 4/8, 4/12 and 7/44. ANy clues for the last one?
oh this is ridiculous! I've been monkeying my last T4 for 20 minutes!
which one are you looking for Ata?
I had no idea o5/10 was even a WORD
Becca - you've gone pro!!!
I don't know! Its one off the bottom T. are there any real weirdos from there? or any including Z?
Hi all.......
indy, it is a slang term for a cowboy movie.
Ata- have you got the t + 3 vowels?
oh. my. ty FM. can't believe I missed that one *slinks off*
Hi FMitch. Yeah, I decided I needed the clues, but can't see them yet! How long does it take to go through?
indy scroll down and read my last text
OK got it!
Becca - You should see the tile and word stats now 2nd letter lists are found under friends of babble
wow, that was a Z party over here for a minute
LOL ata - don't worry ((hugs))
Note to all new players - the tile and word stats pannels that are displayed under the grid are only there for non pro players for 14 days and then they disappear.
yup, figured that one out the hard way a few weeks ago
morning all!
Hi Ping
hi caitlyn, fmitch
hi ping
to6/21 anyone? morning, all!
hi temple, didn't *see* you
Hi Ping!
Becca - did you find that F? I'm missing it too and could use a clue
so how much is it to be a pro?
hey - help with the ga 6/27?
i have been on and off - gets hard to keep track!
which F?
FMitch, do the lists just appear, or do I have to go to another page. They don't seem to be there yet
CadFan - still searching for the f
Hey TO and caitlyn and Ping and everyone £14.95 USD I think indy but that is a one off payment not yearly sub.

Shad ga6/27 a lovely cake!!yum
ahh, got it! Thanks Shade!
f 7/44? aws that clued?
Becca - look at the bottom of the page where it says friends of babble and then lists loads of links in green, go to Licketys Babble Clues but I would also reccomend that you look at Angelsongs babble page as there is a lot of info there. Also at some point look at Babblers Anonymous a place used to post thoughts and topics.
hi steph
Thanks FMitch - got it now. WIll take a look at those pages
Temple f7/44 more than amusing
yw
....oops, I was looking in the wrong direction there - thanks!
f7 = more haha...
ty!

Thanks for the f4/13 Shade - can't believe that's a real word!
thanks mitch - hadn't gotten there yet
hey, it's a 4/13. it was kind of process of elimination at that point
good morning all! i finished last night (first time to finish in under an hour) and just wanted to pop in and say hello. Anyone need clues?
Hi stidmama
wow, under an hour? I'm having way more trouble with this board than yesterday's
hi stidmama
Hey stidmama how are you?!?!
hi stid
hi stidmama - how are you feeling today?
I am well, FMitch, yourself? someone in England last night (your 6 am) said it was raining. Did you get precipitation also?
FMitch, lovely clue for za 6!!
Very well today Ping, hardly a sniffle or cough at all!
hi TO! :-)
stid it has rained all day in Wales!!
ShadeEagle, I had LOTS of help last night too... there were a whole passel of us who stayed past the flip chatting and playing.
thank you MVA stidmana - it has been pouring all day but is easing now 5.25 in the afternoon
we are about to build an ark
oh my! still, I suppose rain this time of year is not unwelcome... I am having to change the hoses around in my garden every half hour today.
up in the DC area, temple?
pa
oh TO, I forgot you are in PA -- I was reading about all the flooding last night. sounds really awful (yet again)
stid - we have a hosepipe ban as we are technically under drought orders
ah - yeah, same thing. I've been hearing horror stories from the DC area, so that doesn't surprise me.
we had flooding last week (houston) but the past few days, sunny and hot
No rain in the north of England today - makes a change!
stationary front...a little too much at one time
hi again, all... dumb question time: I notice that many of you have listed the day you joined Babble; is it on record somewhere, or do you just have to know from memory what day you joined?
abe - lol at your icon - i watched that last night!
ah, drought is not good. We had drought the last few years, but are on a private well so I could still water the actual plants. never water our lawn, though. I hate to mow!
It's automatically in yr proflie Aloy
i think i have the entire movie memorized, temple owl!
aloy, it's on all of them automatically - yours too
where?
NOBODY puts baby in a corner!
Aloyisiusmy memory isnt that good!!LOl
click on the icon to see the profile
I have to put my hand up and say that I asked Dr_G if it was possible to incude the joined date.
I think Dr. God heard me wishing for our start dates to show up on our profiles...
any clues for the ai?
yours says aug. 1, 2005 aloy
h'mm, I will go look; ty all. (believe it or not, I just recently discovered the fact that one can click on the icon.. DUH...!!!)
lol to!
LOL... I see it now..
well click on your icon in the log Aloy rather than going to view your account
that movie has to have the worst dialogue ever spoken!
ai4 looks like the word for something not clean
I did, FMitch; almost one year of babble heaven for me.. (-:
i agree to, i call it favorite 'bad movie'.
whoops, I mean 2 years!
LOL thats wwhy I asked Dr_G to add the info as there are an awful lot of anniversaries coming up in August.
Thanks abe.

Bye Temple and stid
last two Ds are like earth-movers, big truck-like things with scoops on the front for pushing stuff around. bull-do*** and then make the word "more so" for the 6/36
thanks, FMitch, for requesting that from Dr.G; I have to go, too...all finished and ready now to feed the hound... till next time, babblers!
the ag 6 is a form of currency that builds off the ancient greek martketplace...

True. That's why I went pro--mainly for the fireworks. How pathetic is that? But it is very helpful to have the tile stats.
that is true Praes non pros don't see the fireworks when grid is finished after the trial period is up.
the "real" MrP will not be a happy bunny right now ....

Hello inge! And good afternoon/evening all.

Try the ga4/6 - garden entrance plus the first two letters of the country where kangaroos live.

it's the literal translation for cake- look it up in an online dictionary...
am7?
to6/21 - small hill plus the robot ending - hope that helps.

it is also a shape, think a canted square
harpjane, what movie is your icon?
ade the french water to the ga4/6. Une Pepsi et une Ga****
You're welcome indy!
any clues for na please?
Am7- love plus Italian diminutive ending
thelma and louise
MVA, you'll think he na is a proper noun. Think world war II
am 7 - am plus two letter word for alternative, then last part of tiny car (sixties icon in Britain, featured in The Italian Job)
Hiel, Hitler!
munner, what's yours?
Fried Green Tomatoes
I LOVE that film!

Can you believe I've never seen Thelma and Louise. I need a good list of movies to put in my queue at Netflix for those two weeks each chemo cycle when I am too tired to do much of anything.

ag6?
un+2 vowels
long long ag* + to decay
how come "innie" is not a word? (as opposed to 'outie')
ag6 is that 1/100 of a sheqel. think greek market, knock off the indefinite article & put in some overtime
slang
TY finally got the rite combo
bimmer
ag6 - it begins with ag, ends in a three letter word for decay and has a vowel in between.
I mean bummer!

Enjoy seeing your nephew, Munner.
majmom, un + first vowel + third vowel

Flosey: at5/10 is more than oneglass rotunda
hi all, only 1 to go. Can anyone clue me for the last do6/36 please. I have the 1 that sounds like a heavy drinker & also the "stupider" person.
do6/36 is something extraordinary or bizarre, like "That sure is a do6/36!"
the beginning of it is the same as the do6 before it
the other do6/36 is like the other one with a different ending - "that is"
doozie
Thanks for the clues.........I am done.......

Sorry to all the babblers out there I messed up BIG time. Held my finger on the wrong key.
lol ja, lost my clue
well, I just clued the second one but JA's fingers have done away with it
still working on at 5
I think JA is following Thumper's advice, "if you can't say anything nice.....don't say anything at all!"
haha! :D
lol but keep your fingers on the table
the grid isn't THAT bad today :D
awww its alright, he can call me flower... if he wants to.
at5 is plural of an open area in the center of a building
the second do6/36 is something extraordinary or bizarre, as in "That sure is a do6/36!"
afternoon all!
thanks kitty!
the first do6/36 sounds like another word for a drunk
you're welcome Nightnight
thanks kitty after your first clue, I figured out the other one immediately! 4 more to go!

Good going Nightnight :D

lmao, another good line!
Got the horse, need the one under the man's name.
ro 5/14: jolly....
ro4/5 is another name for a crucifix
tony, ro5/14 is a man's name, or an affirmative word in a radio conversation
ah thanks everyone
I'm soooo not getting this? Another name for a crucifix?
fireworks! :)
Another clue for the ro4/5 is that it sounds like some one saying the bits under a tree
ro4/5 rhymes with "being obnoxious"
Well done Nightnight! :D
thanks for the help!
*saying the bits under a tree when they had a cold, that is
had a brain fart and forgot the end of my sentence, it must be time for me to go to bed now! Good night everyone, and good luck with the gird!
Ah, finally got it. Don't know how I missed that one for so long. Thanks for the help.

lol
sorry, love that trash and once in awhile you find a bottle
I don't know what is wrong with my computer, but it is not registering every letter I press...
I will brb....
the dead clue could also be a guy's name
bottles should be shared
the chat moves so fast that it happens, jaia...

FIREWORKS!
yay daisy!!!!
yay, daisy!!!
yeah daisy
aknitter - don't make me
hi Fran!
yay, daisy!
hi annie!
fran you are a copy cat
*bows* only bad part is...now I have to do things in the REAL world....and I'm MELTING....
what did i do aknitter?
we sent the same message to daisy
yep, an original yay-- me too
aknitter, we must have the same version of Greeting Generator! :-)
i think so
lol, fran!
nrkii will have to upgrade that product
she needs to add to the babble sotr
store
spell check would be helpful too LOL
here for my last word. clue for tha zo please?
and why isn't innie a word? innie, outie, referring to belly buttons of coures
it should be AK!
fran, place where animals are kept + opposite of ego
animal place plus your identification
zo5/22-- animal place + freudian self
thanks lib! now why didn't i try that? FIREWORDS!!!!
yay, Fran ****~~~!!!!!
hooray, fran!!!
i was tempted not to give it to you fran -- jealousy is an evil thing
I agree, innie should be a word. I thought for sure omagod was a word too.
i was tempted not to give it to you fran -- jealousy is an evil thing
and annie and aknitter! lib's clue was the only one i saw!
ooh, the green monster :)
good job fran!
it's a good think you're such a nice person aknitter! :-)
i still have 35 to go
and mr. magoo!
i am not nice until i am done LOL
funny, aknitter
hmmm, a wolf in sheep's clothing? ;-)
hi all!
as mr. berra said-- i ain't over 'til its' over!
definately
22 left and I have ground to a halt
hey nrk!
lol, fran!
hello
hi, nrkii!!!
hi harp, good movie!
hi, nrkii, welcome back, harp!
hi harp!
Hi all! Still pounding away at this puzzle, a few minutes at a time...66 left to go. >:(
love that movie, harp
since when are country names like za5 okay?
could it be because it is also a type of money?
i believe it is also a coin, nrkii
be back later.......
i thought na4/9 was a proper noun also
okay, so it's the country, or the coin of that country -- still seems a little dubious
here I was kicking myself for not being able to find the last Z
how about a clue for the na then i can decide for myself lol
na is hitler
FranMag--and yet Realtor is a proper noun. Go figure!
Did anyone else have this chick flick today? It's my all-time fave.
aknitter, baddies from WWII
me too, annie
oh duh
never saw it Krista!\
ooh, harpjane, never saw dirty dancing? you have missed out!
haven't seen another krista, but i love it too!
ooooooooooh, harp, did you mean you haven't seen another person with that icon, or you haven't seen the movie?
I think the title turned a lot of people off...a friend dragged me to see it and I LOVED it! I just got it on DVD for Christmas.
ty, fran for na-- didn't even try it!
true confession: I've never seen Thelma and Lousie!!
neither have i krista
neither have i krista
T & L rock!
oh krista, you have to rent it. Brad Pitt is so yummy in it.
oops, i'm repeating myself
I'll do that..not getting my money's worth out of the Blockbuster service these days...he must have been really young inthat one
ugh - brad pitt likes spiders
re 5/14 please
arachnophobic?
never saw dirty dancing
yes, very young and unspoiled by hollywood
just a weeeee bit
what a store does to an item you've returned, before they sell it again
aknitter, label again
ty harp
oh harp, dirty dancing was really wonderful
I want to go watch it now. Patrick Swayze was pretty darn cute in that. When Roadhouse came out, my boyfriend at the time called it Dirty Drinkin'. That still makes me laugh.
i always thought swayze was overrated
that's funny krista, i loved him in Dirty Dancing, he could really move those hips.
(blocking my ears ... la la la I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!)
He can't act his way out of a box, but he looked good in the day.
ok people, I'm back for a short while - enough, I hope, for my last 5 words, which are probably staring me in the face. Here goes: the first ro4/5, ro5/14, go4/9, ta5/14, tr4/5. Any help? Please?

yw lib!
legal, schmegal, lib... you should see my parents neighborhood on 4th of july!
might lose arse! :-O
yes, nrkii, they're legal in neighboring NH!
lol lib - they're illegal here in illinois also, but that doesn't stop our block from collecting $2000 & sending the kid next door to indiana LOL -it's a spectacula-rama evening
legal to sell in NH, but don't think legal to buy or shoot off -- funny laws...
we have 'em too-- love 'em!
in my neighborhood they send folks to Pennsylvania -- much much much much cheaper than NH
15
go helen!
the cops turn a blind eye... (sorry helen!) :-D
lol - there seems to be quite the market for fireworks importing
go helen!!!!
I gotta step away for a bit -- hydrate, stretch, etc
helen distracted me!
later nrk!!
ok, what's wrong with me? i can't find the second ag 4/6
feather, add two vowels
finally
we get cops that stop & watch our display!! we block off the street & they never say anything (over the years, we've found that if we just park a car at the end of our one way street, then we don't have to worry about any idiots trying to drive through the middle of stuff going off)
ag4/5--what makes older...

.....patsy who?
*digs hole deeper*
oh c'mon now

JonBenets mom
And here I sit, a chick who didn't love that flick... I think I was 13 or 14 when it came out and I was too cynical for it, LOL
ROFL
oohhhhh
:)
yes, that little news flash kinda freaked me out - i hearing people my age or younger are dying & that happens more & more often the older i get
yes, patsy ramsey passed...
i had read the book first, pam, and even tho i knew it was literary pap, I couldn't help but enjoy it...
i'll just crawl back to my news-media void cave now!
She struggled with cancer for awhile
ot
it's ok feather, you are learning here, right?
right dorens - i cried & cried & cried - oh it was so very sad - but for me that's like the classic chick flick
yep!
Dorens-- I confess, I have not read the book... But sometimes pap is great, so I should remember that
lol
ok, gotta do another wall...this break turned longer than i meant!
LOve Story was like the Brian Piccolo Story, watch it once, too sad to ever watch again.
yes helen, if you don't cry, it didn't do the trick
some guy took me to see love story o a date thinking it would make me allow him to get in my pants!
didn't work!
lmAo, liba
Or that movie about the woman with cancer who refused surgery, so she wanted to leave a legacy for her child. All I remember is the John Denver song...
I didn't cry...
oh right cat - someone took me on a date to see the brian piccolo story & we both cried & cried - LOL
Clue please for a nearest bottom of left. I have the at/5.
and he didn't get into your pants??
LOL lib !!!

Betty Anne, go to your account, fill in all the spaces and Dr. God will do the rest, if not e mail him at the address at the bottom of this page.
I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Betty, whatever country you put under the one that says "current residence" is the flag that will show up
i bored need some1 to talk 2

yes betty - that is fun - i love the icons - usually takes me a long time to find one cause i get distracted so easily, :)
i have 4 to get.... ta5,14 and ag4,6 (not the anagram of extreme anger), and 2 ro's
i also have 4
pick a pic from your computer or website, upload to your profile. It explains it, go to the left side of your account page.
Betty Anne, I think there is a guide in Angelsongs page
the ag ends in two vowels,bam
good morning every one.. easy or hard today?
Thanks! Better get back to puzzle as I still have19 to go.
and the ta is geographical term that applies to much of russia
ta5/14-- sounds like african cat-- spelled wrong?
much better clue, libarebel
nice one lib thanx
arisha, it is night time where I am! LOL! pretty hard today, but only 101 words.
ty,dorens--liked yours...
thanks shutter
If you use one from a website, what I do is right click on the pic I want, go to properties, and copy the web address for that pick, and paste it into where it asks for the pic's URL.
ta 5/14 - tag + surround the g with 2 vowels
which ro's are you missing?
yw, bam :)
za 5/20?
back to work on my bedroom, see ya!
african country, go figure
the 2nd ro4,5 and not sure which one of the several 4,4's ahahaah
za5/20, more crazy, in a funny way :)
za5/20--african country
yikes, wrong!!!
helen the za5,20 is a central african country
that would be za6/33
change the last letter of the 4/7 below it
i'm back!
tx bam :)
the za 5 is the currency in same country, hence it is not a proper name
the 4/4's all start alike last vowel is different
thanks, inge that makes sense
yes same goes for the Sierre Leone leone!
Hi Fran

hi e-dine!
ROFL MAMA
just call me Rod
are we done clue-ing for the evening?
i think the cluers went to bed or supper
ZA 5/20?
I guess this would be the time when it would fit in for the little word box to say "I SAID you are DONE!!! Stop entering words you MORON!!"
need to take a break, bbl
za 5/20 rhyms with the type of animal I am
that would be good mama, i like
well dang...was just gonna ask for the U or the N...hehe
"I SAID you are DONE!!! Stop entering words you MORON!!"
like that?
EvaN - i can give you a to
sounds kind of harsh when you say it, ren...... but yes, like that!
un 4 = un + 2 vowels
it did sound rather harsh.....i can;t believe i said it!
s'ok renn... I started it!
i can!!!
I mean only a moron would keep trying to put in words when he has fireworks exploding in his face... sort of.
no - a bear would
i think the clue earlier for na was a dictator (whose name i will not say) during WWII in germany
thanks ren -- i always forget that U-word, and its my nephews middle name!!
silly ol' bear
yes, his name does not merit mention
that un is an interesting name evanadine!
you don't like evanadine's nephew, nut?
yes, its basque. :)
where's chic this evening?

evanadine - what does the name mean in basque?
yes nut - it is a record

ma6,36 is actually the crazy hebrew plural of that jewish cracker

zo 5/22 - what you would need to show to prove you are you when going into a park filled with animals

OO6/33?
great clues, mama bear
Thanks for those, going hunting.
nut's icon reminds me of a friend, Lois, whose daughter was about to marry this big hulking dolt of impeccable breeding. Lois said, 'I think he'll make a good first husband for Laura.' (at the last minute Laura decided she couldn't marry him, and - given all the wedding preparations- Lois was furious)
to 6/21 - sounds like a starry type thing in the sky without the as in the beginning
evening all!!
hey firefly!
hi firefly!

k bye!
nut - you made me fall on my tuchis
hi LA!
Message to Dr_God - If it is within your power, can we please have a humungous grid for Friday 30th June? I won't be able to enter the words (other than on paper) but it will give me something to do, to take my mind off wanting a cigarette, over the time in the airport/s and the flight.
hello firefly
so sorry ren, here *holds out hand, slips, falls* oops
Harp - Having an alter-ego to do the grid is cheating! LOL, like I haven't thought of doing the same.

*helps nut up* - sheet falls off... OH MY..... another tattoo!!!!!
Renny - Crete for a fortnight.
it's me, harpjane, er, I mean Goofball!

i forgot what i was doing
TO 6/21?

ronnie, to+garden entrance

tr + the first 3 letters of that gun I mentioned the bugs have
ok change the wizard to short for identity
Unc - which 'to'? I think I was out of the room when youfirst asked.

lol, no wonder, I was thinking oz

Re Nut's sheet, Ren. If it needs washing you'll have to do it. I'm too busy Babbling and packing.

i'll wash it in mama's woolite
Libarebel - why would she need to Google? I just gave her the words.
that's what I do... :-}
going to do the color tomorrow. can't wait to see some real results, rather than white or "vanilla wafer" that the ceiling is
29 words left here

*hands ren woolite*
I get a mental block sometimes, jac...
What colour, Feather?
wishy washy wishy washy
good work, feather!
"dusty emerald" it's a muted ...well, dusty....green
Ren, you do realise Woolite is for hand washing?
that's for the dining room, then the living room and hall, etc gets "golden den" a nice warm tan
You can't just shove her sheet in the machine....
woolite is only for hand washing if you are a sheep!
wishy washy wishy washy...now i do
or a bear
Feather - green's my favourite colour for house decor.
no just sheep - because sheep have wooly hands
bears have furry hands
BAAAAAAAAAA!

Okay - thank you! Enough attention paid to me now. LOL.
Fran, no just two do6's - what's the third?
I think your icon is blushing, jac!

Babbleland
we did that once..we should do it again. i found some stuff to relax my curls so that you don;t mistake me for harpo marx!
one adds an i in the middle of the earth mover
that was for firefly
the oa?
It was just the original 'What' rather than 'who' question that worried me... but I guess TOonly wondered what/which chick flick.
i feel the earth move under my feet
jacula, you look strikingly like a friend of mine, mentioned earlier in chat for her languge indiscretion
feather, one who eats breakfast grains perhaps?
Carole King. Ren.
I feel the sky come tumblin' down, a tumblin' down
i feel the sky tumblin down, tumblin down
Libarebel???? I do? Who?

ao6/18 , Latin plural of the main heart vein.
firefly, how about the to6/24?
nope
hi andree!
a longtime friend of mine, jac; I earlier told chat- her language mishap in france-- she didn't know that the t in chat (cat) is silent. If it is pronounced, it means pussy. Nance complimented someone's pet...
to+garden entrance

GA 6/27 (french cake did not help me)
lmao lib!
:-O
thanks
yep, leslie & feather, ren-- better nance than me! LOL!

Libarebel - an aunt of mine startedtto do up a place in Northern France ready for retirement in about a decade.... she went into the local butcher's shop and asked him in her very best French, 'Have you got a big cock?' She only wanted to know if he coudl supply her with a big chicken as she had neighbours to feed... However, his wife appeared from the bak of the shop., cleaver in hand.... He looked somewhat awward and embarrassed.... and then my aunt realised what she had asked... EEEK!
LeslieAnn - you don't spell it the right way
erin76, the game is af***
holy crap! What is in4,4?
ooooohhhh, so not switch the letters around, but soundalike. got it, thanks

Ren - as I said not a while ago, ao6 is the Latin plural of the main heart vessel.

Rutger Hauer & Matthew Broderick!
TO 5/10;ZA 5/20
I don't have a sheet to use right now, will a towel do?
ta 5/14 - sounds like the party we are having, but with a different vowel sound (2 vowels)
legend, sounds almost like the ti big cat
Legend - ta5/14 is another way of saying ti5/14
hey nrk!
thanks
a hand towel would make the party interesting!
Indian mammal.
With stripes/
Huge!
ooh, others familiar with ladyhawke - yay
Black spot of back of ears.
aren;t they called spirit towels?
to5/10 = Lat. pl of the to4/4 which looks like a short form of a girl's name (To** Spelling)
hmmm.. tee-ay--eye--gee--ah
za5/20 = african country.
liba's clues kind of remind me of cartoons. aWOOOOga!
so leslie, I had a job interview today doing family counseling with Catholic Charities!!
tay g ah
Cue party singing of In Za***, the rumb;e in the jungle song.
sorry, hard to clue... :]
is it for an internship or a job?
woulf, refresh to see your ladyhawke icon ... changed it just for you
job
One of my favorite scenes from Ladyhawke is when Broderick rebels against gathering firewood
Hello! Hoe are you all doing?

Hi, Libby!
I do hope no internet whotsit is going on here!
bye charm!!!! have a good nite
Hi, Fran!
bye charm!
good job nrkii
oh, even woulf knows ladyhawke movie -- this is too much, I'm getting all teary-eyed
pretty much, I would probably stay on at O'Chux just one night a week because the job doesn't pay very much, but it is actually what I want to be doing
okay Woulf, I'm going to get my Tues icon now, just wanted to pay a little tribute, LOL
oh right, the counseling job = good, not the bartending
bam bam have you finished, i can't see you on chat
got them all now, thanks for the clues tonight, my mouse batteries are running low, nighte
congrats ronnie!

Good for you, Nat!! Congrats!
I thought that counseling & bartending were the same thing... :-|
good-o nice job nat
literally, i guess
andree, add another i to the to4/4 before it
Tuesday's theme is Fire. I'm going with a variation on that theme.
but liba brings up a good point

7 to go.....ga6/27....elusive to me.....ma6/36.....na 4/9....ta 4/4.....to4/4
lol nrkii! good one
good luck on the new job NatLT!!! Hope it works out for you!

yes, ma 6/36 clue would be great
'tis true leslie :)
manic, for ga6/27 add and a and u to garden entrance
manic, ga 6/27 - ga + english drink + last vowel
manicmama, ga 6 is the ga I always miss -- french cake
GW, check out my profile, read those authors?
don't they tip, nat?
ma6/36, add a T to the jewish dumpling
Hawk the Slayer -- starred John Terry and Jack Palance -- it is an awesomely cheesy fantasy, but so much fun!!
nat, maybe you could pioneer bar counseling, instead of a couch you could have a bar stool
FDire, is it? Well, I work for the UK Fire Brigades... might have to take care which pic I choose. There again,. I could just leave the one of myself up with Sinead O'Connor's 'Fire and Arhtur Brown's 'Fire' as the soundtracks. ROFLOL.
na4/9 is a white supremacist, bad guy from WWII
Well, my toyboy loves me!
that would rule, as long as I wasn't working with substance abusers
finally......that ga 6 made me mad!!
time for me to do 4/10..... *waves* good nite all!
ta 4/4 is like what you get when you spill grape juice on your white blouse, but lose the first letter
good idea leslie! :-D
ta4/4 is like a smudge on your shirt minus the first letter
ta 5/14?
details, details, nat.
night mama!
Featherbee -- I used to love Piers Anthony until Xanth stopped feeling natural to me -- though I did love the Incarnations of Immortality (though the last book was pushing too hard for its punchline, IMHO)
to4/4, add an a to your foot digit
ty, fran, got it!
yw lib!
i'm reading the Proton/Phaze series right now, read all Xanth, haven't gotten into the others.....yet
As for David Eddings -- I have but one question for you -- "Does bouncing count?"
so I checked with Nick about the weekend, but what about your plans? is it cool if I crash with you guys friday night?
And me? I've lost the plot now re clues etc.
of course it is!
hi all
oro
Piers Anthony discussion?
ta5/14 is a russian wilderness area, ta + i + first two letters of board **me, also sounds like another way to say the big cat ti5/14
oh boy, it's been quite a while since I've read eddings! tasslehoff is the first character who came to mind, but i don't think that's the right series
the Proton/Phaze books were definity fun to read, though I have to admit that I don't remember too well at this point
hello saph
hey, saph!
general fantasy/sf discussion
hooray, oh did you get my email last week about the david's stuff?
okay, must to bed now... you all are lovely people, and I wish you well

yes ma'am, although i didn't get your e-mail tonight yet... i'll write you back.
ahh, Piers Anthony is my favorite, although I do agree the last incarnation was pushing it.
Hi saph!! G'nite nrkii!!
night nrk!!
night nrkii
right, weis and hickman? i almost put them in my profile too, but figured i needed to stop somewhere
No matter! I can't go to bed now, een thought I'm tired (at last!) csos other half has to be up soon for work and I'll disturb him. Best thing I can do now is boil the kettle read for the flask...
Xanth got a bit too much after book 25 or so but I still read them all
my email tonight?
two to5/10s, first one just add an i to the to4/4 that is ms. spelling
what was the bouncing in reference to? remind me?
to...tr....tu... all 4 letter words.............why o why can I get the harder ones and not the easy ones?
nick said you sent me one, although he could have forgotten to pay attention on that one
the other to5/10 is like the fortune telling card, but change first vowel to O
thanks fran
Feather -- I was tempted to list my preferred authors, but decided against it because I love so many of them -- at times it is easier to list who I haven't read in the SF/Fantasy field instead
sure miller
i had that one, ty
at least xanth wasn't the traditional good vs. evil save the world thing...just a fun adventure, easy reading
it was the one last week, I mentioned that I was coming this weekend that's all
Manicmama - it's because you have become accustomed to searching for the weird words...
have you read the liveship series? robin hobb i believe. very good.
oh he is silly then
thank you Fran
yes he is
sure tonyv
too much WOW for him I think
Hey Esquian, you on there?
I do haver Piers Anthony listed as favorite author - didn't remember that I had that there until you said something GW
ty franmaq i never would have found that. can i get a clue for tr 5/10 please
Bouncing -- one of the villains (Brill) had just been tossed off a parapet --- Belgarath shows up and asks where he is, to which Silk (the tosser) replies that Brill was learning to fly last he saw him....
Yes, just got here!
Hi again- does anyone need clues?
hahaha!
tr 4
you still there, Norad?
andree, trick or tr***
who is that cute baby in the picture?
If you can find his stuff still in print , try some Karl Edward Wagner. Did mostly short stories with main character named Kane.
that would be Erin at about 2 weeks
manic, one of a horse's speeds
then they here a thud from below, followed shortly thereafter by another thud -- Silk looks over the parapet and innocently asks, "Does bouncing count?"
Jai - dunno! I finished hours and hours ago, but am losing trck of who needs clues now;
thanks for the recommendation unc
tr+ **d ball or tr+ horse pace, short tr**
how many words have you got?
this is the first time in while for you on Babble, yes?
eddings does such rich characters
I only have 20. haven't been able to focus much today
I'm at 41 from early this am...last word added at 1:21 am
this is a hard grid, too
ok I have 62 to go so I'm diving in
go saph, go esquian!
Robin Hobbs is one of the authors I haven't gotten to yet -- time to read is scarce these days :\
2 more!
go norad!
go tonyv!
I'm totally a clue hound now. I get them any way I can.
Hi, Jac! Glad you finished!
I agree that it is hard, too many oooooooo's
highly recommend that series to you then...creative, good characters and storylines
Go Tony!
I give up! I can't keep up with he chatlog tonight.
Uncagain -- the Kane stories were recently collected in a single volume about 2 years ago I think
esquian. what doyou need?
zooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnkkkkkkkkk k
nite-nite, Jac!
jai - there are so many; don't know where to begin
nice stuff, like the Conan stories should have been
it's moving at turbo speed!
Also, another fun author to check out is Many Wade Wellman --- one of his best characters is Silver John
How many dop you have left?
uh oh, i think we lost jac
hmmmm...
never heard of him before!
My personal nominee for the best writer in SF is Gene Wolfe
feather -- I will check it out
lurker here, cannot let the opportunity pass by to recommend scifi author Kage Baker.
a clue for ma6/22?
is that name right? Many Wade Wellman?
jai - were you asking me about dop? If so, what's dop?
Manly
*ac, jaia?
Gene Wolfe is good --- also Glen Cook's Black Company is well worth reading
i need to write these down!
am5/12 pleaaaaasssseeee
amen to Glen Cook
Wolfie - sign in!
sorry feather -- Manly Wade Wellman
am5/12 --a + fench dead
i need one more!! ze44, not the grrek letter, not the corn protein.
am + a crumb
ze49, I mean
ok, off to research these authors and save them!
french
firefly, a+death prefix
a small rug for the floor- ma* + last letter of alphabet+ abbreviaton for overtime...
i'll say night now
I got it!!!
great clue, jai!
My first finish!
thankyou
thx!!!
hooooray Miller!
feather -- feel free to contact me -- address is my bio -- if you need help remembering :)
ze - a number
a + rigor mo****

*~*~*~*~*~FIREWORKS FOR MILLER*~*~*~*~*~
TY< esquian!
ty GW! bye
oh, good, miller!
so long feather -- have fun!
norad - do you use Lickety's page?
Bye, feather!
Anyone else need clues?
hello, moth!
am7?
DONE
I have used it, but this is my first puzzle in about 3 weeks and haven
hooooooray tonyv!!
do6/36??
thank you
I need clues for words comign off f in the last column on the right
I am stumped on the two za's
yay tonyv!!!!!!
see ya all at the flip
thanks
** haven't tried it yet tonight...
am 7/32-- an italian love drink, shaken not stirred?
nat, one is a z5, african country
am7 is love+opp of out + vowel
Italian love word + ending found at the ends of pasta like tort***
ooh, very clever lib!
or am7-- a teeny italian love...
so you have become a clue freak?
ahh thanks
ty, fran!
LMAO, Lib!
za - crazier
lol, jaia!
yes, total clue freak. I haven't found an easy way to use lickety's list while I play.
can you open two internet sites at one time?
hold on...got to take chicken out of the oven
tu 4/8 feel like I have tried all combos
Have you tried opening tabs on your computer?
thanks for the za 5, anyone have the other?
manic, tu+not near but **r
za6 means the same as crazier
stephie clued it at 10:25, nat
Cross tu with do, re me **
um, the fish???????tu4/5
the tu** fish--lol!
do6/36??
thanks everyone......101....I am D O N E......
oops, sorry missed that clue, thanks
huzzzah manicmama!!
be back in a bit folks, my poor sick son just asked for food
this is the second time now the to4 with two more vowels at the end is my last word...you think i'd learn that dumb word by now!!
I feel stupid -- I cannot for the life of me come up with ai 4/4 no matter how many combos I try! Can someone at least tell me which A it is?
both 6/36 start with the same four letters- one is a real do*****, the other is the end of a big truck, a bulldo***
jai - how do you open tabs? Do you just start a new browser session and toggle between the two, or do you do Lickety's first and come back and enter?
erjho -add two consonants to the ai
got it -- thanks! don't know why I missed that.
ai 4/4 like the study of drawing with an extra vowel
i had a heck of a time with the 4 letter words tonight too
wait did i miss firefly finishing? hoooray!
yes, some challenging 4-lettered words in this puzzle
hmm, the tr5/20?
yep LA, everyone missed it i think
On my computer, you right click on the bottom bar, and then click the option "open window in tab"- at least, that's how I do it, then flip back and forth between the two pages....
*~*~*~*~*~FIREWORKS FOR FIREFLY*~*~*~*~*
awww, thanks LA *blushing*
alright, fire!!!
yay firefly!!!!!
tr+ two vowels + last letter + second vowel
finally got the tr 5/20 - tr + first three letters of the classic ninja turtles movie, the secret of the ****
too lazy for that... ;) I think I might just print Lickety's list and have it right next to the computer
unc, it's a strange word for a type of pants, rhymes with oo4/9 without last letter
(also an o4 in today's puzzle :)
ty for tu**, jaia!
night all, time to be with my hubby - thanks for the help and the congrats
$%$%$%$%$%$% for Firefly! Yay!
night firefly!
good night firefly
yw, Fire!
thanks jai -and i love your name (read your bio explanation)
enjoy hubby, fire ;-)
ah, thanks,
esquian, i use BJ's list and transfer it to a spreadsheet and make it fit on one sheet, works great for me.
Thank you, Firefly!
*buzz*
good tip, Fran. Thanks!
personally, I use either list, but I open in a new window entirely -- it allows me to line them up next to each other and more quickly determine what I am missing
where is BJ's list?
Yes, that is what I meant, G. Woulfe- TY for explaining it so well!
wait, i missed liba's insinuation...i remember you sharing too much info the other night! lol but yeah, probably that'll be the end result ;)
finished hooray!! thank you all for all the clues
i'm surprised there's no zoot allowed... remember zoot suits?
at Babbler's Anonymous under General
bj's list - http://p105.ezboard.com/fbabblersanony mousfrm2.showMessage?topicID=6.topic
$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$% for Andree!
great job, andree!
oh, dear, firefly...dirty old lady hre...
yay andree!!!!!
9 to go...
go erjho!!!!
Zoot is a capital letter word
I shouldn't others to behave as I do...:-D
erhjho. go, go ,go!
trying! :)
well, we're married liba, so...so what? :P
I have one left--the o in the second row second from top Help please!!! Not to seep.
So, GreyWoulf, you just adjust your browser windows to fit both the list and the game side by side>
bettyanne, check your word stats - how many letters?
betty, o + old style leg?
a grain + end of what you drink wa***
well, s'nice! nite, kids! :-)
good night liba
yeah esquian, keep them both open, side by sice
how many words today?
night lib!!
nite, leslie :)
or og+ I ** what I **
101, playwoman
foot
101
101 play
yes, foot is in there :)
*side
see, now you only have 100 to go, playwoman
fran, nite :)
thanks, guys
that's a big pain in the tushy. I always find myself having to scroll so much when I go between windows. I guess if you work the list in order, it would work, though.
only 71 more words to go....HAHAHAHA!!! Doubting I'm going to finish this one.
Sorry but I don't get it. It's a four letter word starting with the o in the second row below the t at the top.
you can do it esquian!
the seeping one? oo?
betty, og 4/7 - og + first person "is"
og+ what God said: I ** what I ** or abbreviation for morning
betty, it might be an og4/7 that you're looking for, og+i ** what i **
Nope!
and more so?
Thanks, Fran, but it's late here (east coast) and I have three kids I have to get up with in the morning. It's OK....just fun to play it. My crazy sister, Norad, got me hooked on this game. I should shoot her, but she's just so darn nice.
Thanks Fran. That was it. Thanks to everyone and good night! Fireworks!!!
a lot of concentration on this one, hard to chat...
hmmm..-- had retired-- too addicted-- another babbleholic...
that's how they get ya, esquian.... being nice.
yayyyy bettyanne!
$%$%$%$%$%$% WTG Betty!
no...don't shoot...I knew you could use a break...
no problem, Norad, you over achiever you. We'll have to time to chat this weekend and in that LONG drive home, if it all works out. By the way, are you willing to drive back with me. I don't think I even asked you.
just kidding on the shooting
Anyone else need clues? Do you all have your 7's?
ok I need a little help with the ao's and the at 5/10
i only have the am, jai...
I have the am7/32 but not the other
well, thank agorot!
they all have to do with the heart, nat...
liba!!
at 5/10 plural of an at****, a place with glass and plants and sunshine
lol, leslie-- caught! :-{}
sorry!
ao's are a major blood vessel from the heart
lol that's about the most blatant clue ever ;)
I didn't think anyone would catch it-- only you, leslie!
lol, I guess I already had the at 5, thanks though, I need to check my stats closer
a Latin plural for a word is "ae"
thanks, jai! I got the at one from your clue
and the ao one
that's for the ao clues leslie, and jai
yw!
hi everyone! long time no see
I have yet to locate either of the 7's :\
hello shirin
Hi shirin!
ma 5/16?
brb, i need to change my icon
Anyone need any clues now, afore I GO?
grey - want clues?
i need help with the do6/36 that is not a real d***** and is not sleepier
woulf, the am 7 - french love + the end of a shaken, not stirred drink (i think liba's original clue)
leslie, it's like the fly larva minus a letter
am7 sounds like Italian love pasta- a pun- Italian for love + pasta ending (something little, end of James Bond drink)
MA5/16 - A baby fly with a bit missing in the middle.
I never turn down help esquian! -- and well met, btw -- alwaysa a pleasure meeting a new friend!
fu7 is really hilarious...
snozrap, take the real do****, take off the last two letters and add a "more so" ending
oh yeah, well fu too, jai
;)
oh, that was easy. thanks
ok....nice to meet you, too! did you get those two clues for the 7's just now, or do you need more clues?
thanks for the 7's
LOL, Leslie!
les did you see my clue for you?
nice clues!
and to6/21?
um yes, just trying to think of bug larva (ew)
FIREWORKS!!!!!!!
YR welcome, GreyWoulfe- my guardian spirit is a wolf
hooooray boston!
$%$%$%$%$%$$%$%$ for the mermain from Boston!
mermaid!!LOL
baby flies, on gross food
me too bostonmermaid!
to6/21 = to 4 + end of the proper word for piles ( the sort that hurt your bum).
good luck to all, I'm heading to bed... see you all tomorrow!
ooooh got it, ew, try to block stuff like that outta my head
hooooray wyrd!!
jaianniah -- thanks -- near as I can figure Wolf walks on my right and Coyote on my left
ok....newbie question....why are there words on here that count that aren't in the dictionary?
suffice to say, life gets fairly interesting at times as a result! :D
My teacher was Grandfather Coyote, and I wear a coyote tooth in his memory...this is neat!
thanks everyone :)
esquian, all i know is that the puzzle uses something called the enable dictionary, all the words in the puzzle are in there
Because the enable dictionary is wierd, warped and twisted, esquian -- kinda like us!
Enable is Babble's dictionary...we call it DISAble. Nuff said.
ty jacula
but I just enterd a word that the puzzle accepted, but when I pushed the ?, it said no entry found for it
Life is weird!
I am missing 3 do's two of the 6/36's (the middle two) and a do 4/5 somewhere just before the 36's
Life is fun.
Esquian, ours is not to reason why, ours is just to babb;e or die.....It doesn't make sense sometimes....it's that darn dictionary they use, the Enable
Life is unprdicatable.
yeah, it links to dictionary.com instead, esquian
or even unpredictable.
esquian, the link goes to dictionary.com which apparently doesn't search enable
I used to be a coyote but; I'm allright nnnooowww!
But if nothing else, Jac -- Life is always worth celebrating!!
okey dokey....thanks
lib, you crack me up!! i thought you went to sleep?
Lib, what the heck are you drinking/smoking? tee,hee!
nat, one is more sleepy, another is slang for quite a deal (that's a do****) and for the third take a bulldo*** and add an extra o
Ok, back again and hello to all, didn't say that earlier, just jumped in. Esquian, no problem on driving back together, it will be a treat!
probably peyote, for the coyote
Once I was a buterfly, then I was a moth, after that I became a bat... but I stil think life is fun!
Yeah, lib!! you're holding out on us!!
I am a coyote.............. coyote ugly bloke!
truly babble addicted!
hey bambam!
Cause whatever it is, I want some!
Norad - is that Babble etiquette? I totally don't say hello.
any clues for the oo6?
bambam, you missed your mom's fireworks
who is bambam's mom?
shirin, more oo4/9y
The mud got oo**** and oo**** as the rain poured down
more gooey and sticky, shirin
thank god i missed that.... fran that is a horrifying thought...
andree is bambam's mom
my mum is andree
duh, thanks Leslie
how about oo5?
oh ok, did you get her mixed up with this bad crowd bambam?
excellent on driving back, adn guess what? I didn't get a chance to talk to the hubby about the plan. We had another minor flood in the basement. Argh! Forecast calling for at least two more straight days of rain.
well esquian, a lot of times I think to say hello before asking for help, but sometimes I just jump right in...
snozrap, no oo5
oo 5 - oo + a ***-bit of information
and leslie,,, SHE got ME into it.... !!
no rain here in Paradise. Very warm - perfect for babbling.
help -- just one word left! I'm missing one of the do 6/36s
esquian -- who's the cutie in your icon?
Okay. for those just arriving, a gentle clue - to4/8 - veegie 'meat'.
oo+ a kind of detergent, ***e
now my eyes are going, sorry snoz!
any weather is perfect for babbling!
thanks, and zo5?
it's perfect for my job (fx dealer) coz we are crazy busy sometimes but looooong periods of ennui
That would be my third kiddo, my daughter. thanks!
hello,all I'm just like that! ( wine doesn't hurt, tho..).
i clued 'em all at 10:57, erjho
Esquian, can you dig a trench away from the window well?
ok, I'll look at the archive -- thx
ok last d, di6?
z**, where they keep animals+ not ego, but **, or abbreviation for identification
Nat ... di + smallest particle
ma6?
zooid
Well, the hubby went digging in the window well and found a pipe coming up from the ground. It was really clogged, so he unclogged it
sorry wrong box
that would be it snoz!!
thansk!
book you write your thoughts in crossed with a type of male cat...Di****
she is adorable, esquian -- if you want to see pics of mine there are two threads on BabAnon that lead to some -- one is by me "thanks for all your love and support", the other is "Greywoulfs Brood" started by swmbo for me :)
d's are down, only 31 words to go
shirin, add a t to the jewish dumplings
*shoves a magic p in next to the bottom r*
go go nat!
go nat!!
we're hoping that pipe will work
got it, snoz!
i dont have that one either, Fran and dont know what that is:(
hi leigh
Look at 3rd do6/36 first - it comes off the (have a sleep) word do4/10. It means more like hat, or mrore Jade Gody lie or more stupid.
Hey GW, it's been awhile since I've played, last time out your new baby was, well, new...how goes it these days?
Hello
=)
Hi, Liegh!
Thanks, GreyWoulf. We like her! And I will try to get over to BabAnon and take a look at yours as well! Aren't kiddos great (most of the time!)
shirin, like a place ma* or a welcome ma* then add the first two letters of the masked superhero - the legend of **rro
ro5/14?
Leigh
Esquian, what pipe? did you put it in last night or tonight when the 2nd flood happened?
Hi jaianniah!
done!!
no, it was there all along apparently
The other 2 do6/36's describe today's grid.
ro***, that's a go, commader
ahh, thanks again Leslie
it comes up to the ground level INSIDE the well
snoz, ro***...over and out
well, ok, leslie! :)
ty
hmmm, was it full of debris?
snozrap.... ro***, over and out! federer
yay leslie!!!!!!!
hey, people, i finished!
and it looks like it's there for that reason. To carry overflow away from the house
jinx Fran!
Esquian - I'm in New Jersey, and it was bad enough here...so I can only imagine what it's like for you right now. =(
Hey yourself, Norad -- they are both doing great -- he is 5 months now and big -- has two teeth cut already and his sister is LOVING being a big sister
YAY LESLIE!!!!!!!!!!
$%&$%&$%&$%& for Fran!!!!!! Hooray!
well, gmta bambam!
jai, i finished a long time ago, leslie is the one that just finished
oops....I mean LESLIE!!!!!! $%$%$%$%$%$%!!!! <i am so embarrassed>
YAY LESLIE!!!!!!!
Congrats Leslie
I told Dan we need to move (half kidding). He says this is just a freak of nature storm and it won't happen again
well done, leslie!
yes, it was full of debris
grass, mud, etc.
Dan would say that! Did you clean out the debris tonight?
what storm, esquian?
re5?
GW, big sisters seem to be like that...they see bossing opportunities down the line :)
hang on just got it
Horse's controller
ta5?
libarebel - The storm that seems to be contentedly sitting on top of the Washington, DC area.
sorry- re+ name***
probably true, Norad -- though I wouldn't know as I am an only child myself
heehee, thanks folks... i will stay and clue for a bit
re5-- to touch again, as in a kids' game
snozrap, you're not from the midwest are you? ta + grocery store jerry's ***?
oa5?
no im not from the midwest... try australia
shirin, grain + nbc hospital show
rhymes with "boater"
I am one of eight. I am in the middle and Esquian is our baby...now with 3 of her own...
shirin, one who eats cereal grain?
whoa, way off! ok, ta + third vowel + not stop but ** - change last vowel
hello, leigh-- you don't often stay long ?
ty Fran
ok feeling dumb, in4
aha! i got it.. like the siberian forest steppes
Wow -- that is awesome, Norad (and esquian) -- I have always been envious of large families
in + two vowels, nat
Sorry...I'm back...
nat, it's the hairy-nosed dolphin, in+two vowels
Not really. I've been busy with school and work lately. =)
I am not getting any feedback on my clues....Are they helping, or should I go soak my head??? <twinkle>
we have our good days and our bad ones...
got it thanks
Yes, we do. Don't be envious. Grass is always greener.
di6?
the ze4's that are not nothing
shirin, di+smallest particle (at4/5)
snozrap, one rhymes with a blood vessel
what girls write their thoughts in crossed with a type of male cat, di* + ***
ty!
Jai - hwo about ta5,14?
ty
the other is part of greek alphabet
libarebel - huge storm front that has parked itself over DC and hasn't stopped raining much for the last 3 days
yw, and ty for the ty!
ok, but I definitely salute your parents -- large families are a whole new order of logistics to master
the other ze4 is a greek letter
or middle name of catherine ze**-jones
ma 5 22's?
T+ second two letters of my name+ go-go, **, **
woulf, what about that family with 16 kids, have you seen any of the TLC shows?
I need one more do6 and I think its the 2nd one?
tauin
yes, Norad, Dan cleaned the pipe out tonight. Just call us Chicken Little (we should move) and Ostrich (sp? It won't happen again)
that's goo, goo, **<**
They are worth the salute GW, I have "only" two and they continue to keep me busy, even with one away at college...
Fran -- that is a bit much for me, but as long as everyone involved is happy, more power to them
It's a real doo***!
shirin, middle one is...watch out for that step it's a do****
Sorry
first one is bulldo*** + an extra O
Desperate attempt to make up words - tauin is not one, evidently.
Norad- We'll keep you busy even after college. =)
last one is bulldo*** + an i after the high point letter
Yes, our parents do deserve the salute. There is 17 years difference between me and the oldest. Could you imagine having one going of to college while you bring another one home???? The thought exhausts me.
Kept our mom young though...
dozier
sorry...wrong box
my husband is one of 8 also, he's second to youngest and he's like a whole other generation from his older siblings!
ommmmm....I'm telling on you to the Babble gods!
and with that, I've got fireworks!
thanks, Ive never heard of that word
that's the word norad!
see, I can't chat and spell at the same time!!! believe me, the Babble gods already know!
yay erjho!!!!
I'm in awe - still 41 to go
shirin, do you have all 3 do6/36s now?
to6,21?
hooooray erjho!
I'm just kidding. I've done it, too.
esquian --- I am starting my family late -- I am having enough trouble keeping up with 2, so no I can't imagine what it might be like -- all the more reason for my heartfelt salutations
Fran - yes, there are advantages to being the younger ones...
18 left, getting a little strained
brb
to + **** rage (in baseball players especially) :)
to6/21 is to4/4 (bull) + short word for self (not ego)
nat, we'll help. whaddya need?
i have one word left! this is exciting
any clues for the ai/4 please??
to6/21 is like a bull steroid...
thank you!
what you breathe + cross letter, hpy
yay my first finish!! and it all finished with a big fish
I do, Fran Mag - need a clue?
That's nice, GreyWoulf. We'll have to tell our mom of your salutations! :)
congrats snozrap
hoooooray snozrap!!
I am having trouble seeing the first to5/10
ty Leslie but i have that one, guess i need the other one, oops, sorry
there's only one ai, hpy
i'm done mayne, i was just checking with shirin
ms. spelling with an extra third vowel (for good luck?), woulf
both ma 5 22's, one of the mo 4'5s
thanks, LA -- that one always gets me
it's funny, no matter what time i sign on, jacula, franmag and jai are always done. i think they babble in their sleep
GreyWoulf - can't find the pics of your kiddos.... Tell me again where they are on BabAnon?
ma 5/22s - like jewish ma*** ball soup, change last vowel for the other
thanks Fran
7 more
go shirin!!!

hi bored
lol leslie, just saw your post, that's not too far from the truth!
That's nice, Fran. Everyone here is really nice!
We need to develop a little computer that attaches itself to our brains so that while we go about our daily lives, it searches deep within the recesses of our mind to find those really obscure, often monkey-typed words.
Hello bored
http://swmbo.homestead.com/files/GreyW oulf/Sebastian2.html
one ridiculous thing i just noticed is they dont let you use footrot, as in the sheep disease
I like that idea leigh, could it also write my thesis for me?
hi bored. what's going on with you? ;-)
Those are the direct links, esquian
80 left, just started, ty
leigh -- sounds like a perfect item to add to the babble store! :D
Only if it will do mine once it is finished with yours.
how many z's are there please?

2 za's, 3 ze's, 1 zo
6 go4/9ball

ae**dynamic, norad

thanks fran
Yay, Saphyre! $%$%$%$%$%$%$% For such a pretty name+ good Babbling!

goofball, if you click the lickety's babble clues link below you will get a first and second letter list
Exactly, LA!!
ag 6 - ag + fourth vowel + to go bad
ag 6 - a long time a* & if something goes bad
Long, long, *** + ***ten apples, ick
I know, i'm lazy at heart!
hey, that's like israeli money
thanks
What a cluing team we are!
Will do, Fran. Tomorrow, though. Tomorrow is a new day. Or, really, today. Which is not a new day, as it will be the same today later as it is now. But my today is someone else's tomorrow. And that...is just interesting.
jai - I'm not following apples, ick clue?
never mind. just got it
to go bad is to r*
leigh, i think you just made my head explode
one of the r's I was missing was the simple one that is on top of my house
Leslie, i was thinking the same thing!
LOL There's one in every barrel, bad apple is spoiled, etc.
ao6,18 anyone?
Sorry ladies!
PLural of the five with Latin plural "ae"
think heart - latin plural

I am missing an ro 4/4 somewhere in the last group of them I have the one like the people who clean your drains, the one that sounds like memorizing, and a different vowel, and the plant base... any help with the last would save me
finished, thanks for the clues
thing on top of your house
ro + tee+ another vowel
nat, the ro + cross letter + vowel should get you 4 ro 4/4s

He seems interesting
equian, do you have the ze4/9 nothing?
to 6/24?
esquian, i only have 2 ze 4/9
liba -- I never looked at him that way -- I just like his sound
esquian, three ze 4/9s - one is nothing, another a greek letter, another z + albert ***stein
Got the t5 that sounds like tiger?
or ze4/9 that rhymes with a blood vessel?
Hmmmm I'd hate to have my purse filled with toea's
no, I have douglas spouse
to 6/24 - to + ga 4/6
and when he and Pete Seeger were together it was something else entirely
Do I really want to stay for the flip, or do I just want to go to bed?
