hello again, everyone. I wanted to share some sad news for my mom (Jaianniah). In the wee hours of this morning, Jai's dad (my grandfather) died suddenly. She is currently in the car with my Sister heading on up here. So both she and I will be offline this weekend... unless she can get ahold of my dad's laptop and an internet connection. (We're working together tonight as I sent a pic of the puzzle to my Sister's picture phone)
LA - fast on the 1st half & then i come to a screeching halt
oh knut, so many condolences for you and jai. please tell her we said so.

Oh Knut, my deepest sympathy for you and Jai

please give her our condolences nut!
so sorry to hear that, hope you will all be ok
thoughts and prayers are with you knut and jai
I think we'll be okay. Everyone from my mom's side of the family is pulling together nicely. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers, thank you.

thanks, thanks.....
de 6 - think blue
mazal tov joey
ta susan-vic!
3 to go for me 1 m & the di 5 7 6
thanks melon, you have got to be close....... right?
di 5 and 6 - di + consonant + not you and plural
joey got hints for the di 5 7 6?
I don't have a di 7? the 5 and 6 refer to a tithe. from the dictionary.
(i don't think melon's shift key is working)
that is what I just figured out LeslieAnn.
fireworkS & yes my shift key is sticky - i ampersand to save keystrokes - which i just lost by spelling out ampersand.
sorry boyfriend is bored
get him a gameboy!
the di is the last di 4 minus the second consonent and add the opposite first person objective
congrats melon!!
did you find etlet yet?
yay melon!!
hrmmm... the only words he can find are straight across
good going, melon.
leslieann - what is etlet?

my tile stat say i 0/1 so this means i need an I word? but hw do i know whta number to ask for
Hi jilli, sounds like a wise plan :)
thank you saphyre!
taz - if you're using the list, like LicketySplit's, you'll know more info on the word
sure, sprite, but...
like the letter count/point value
i did go look at lickys this is alot for a newies little barin
I know, I know... but hey, this being a very small grid should help a bit at least ;)
firefly, I see your icon in the chat but not when I click on it, although I have refreshed a couple of times. Why?
and brain
Fireworks for me and time to hit the hay! Have fun friendly babblers1
Good job

Fabulous, eh? *blushes*
happy babbling everyone - see you later
There is still sudoku and some other nice word sites, Mayne :)
Ahhh - yes - any excuse I can find! I must confess I had help tonite from my daughter
Oh jilli, just looked at your icon in your profile... that is er... sort of... disturbing, LOL!
I was pointed to one of those sites yesterday. Quote something. Very much fun!
MG - read stid's story -- July 25, 2:43 pm
http://www.quote-puzzler.com/
How to find, Jili?
Yeah, found a 7!
ooh, i like these nice little ones
Hi Krys *hug*
Look above here to Archives, MG
well that was short and sweet... Hello to eveyone
hi sprite! i missed you by just a few minutes at IS
Hi Blaze!
*hugh back*
Blaze - do you mean you've finished already?
darn, hopelessly stuck at 10...
Hello Jilli.... how are you tonight?
Hi Blaze! It's hard not to miss eachother there, Krys, lol. Especially with those easy ones.
Yes, i snuck in and went to work right away...
I'm very sleepy, blaze -- stayed up too late babbling, duh
dunno, easy ones always go slower for me - they're the only ones where I don't use green numbers
Jilli means: 'stayed up too late babbling again, duh' ;)
been there done that.... I am off now to work more... I up turned my computer room today and now must get back some order
hello i see i missed flippy again
um, yes, guilty as charged, sprite, LOL!
krys you a scrabblera?
hey infernal, nice to see you again
Hihihi, jilli... it's easy for me to say, the flip comes here at 7 am.
i haven't looked back in the log yet - feeling lazy - any clues for the 7's?
10 pm here, sprite -- too tempting
scrabblera?
football players wear them on their heads Krys
dime
I would be tempted then too, jilli. Ah, who am I fooling. Not tempted. I would play.
oops play scrabble? i love the icon
ack, sorry
i got coffe its all good
i see that we have a small grid again, pout
That will keep on happening until (if ever) drG sees fit to fix it, Krys. Never mind.
Okay, I said I would get to work and not chat, but I paid no attention to myslelf - as usual
ah, right, the icon; actually i don't play scrabble that much, but i was inspired after reading "word freak" and I noticed that I had some scrabble letters with different point values than the standard english set. sprite, I asked DrG about it recently and he said it wasn't easy to fix and he wasn't going to.
You just have this social side of your personality that is somehow stronger, jilli ;)
the icon would be better if my name were Kate :)
i play scrabble and i feel babble has helped my game
lol! Mom finished the puzzle in a car, an hour outside of St. Louis, MO, in the dark, on the back of a deposit slip, using a picture phone to get the grid. Go mom!
Dr G said he couldn't fix it - that was a couple of days ago when he was in the chat dealing with a cou-le of trolls
I disagree with the first part, Krys, but I figured as much as the last part.
with extra special kudos to her driver, Katie who helped :-)
thats a good effert for your mum knut
knut, that is just great, LOL!
WOW on jai, knut!!! She's a real champ!
this is what he wrote back: There is no solution that doesn't involve introducing more, bigger problems. This is something that I do not plan to change.
wait, I'm confused - we'll have small grids forever now?? what problem?? I'm lost
Well, I will say it only once more and then remain silent: just changing the cursor position after entering a chat message would solve it.
i like small grids. i may actually have time to do them now.
the problem with how the chat box cursor doesn't bounce back into the word entry cursor box, so we all accidentally put our guesses in the chat log
i like small grids better too ;)
Message from Jai: "Neither rain, snow, or lack of computer will stop me from babbling, LOL"
I love your mum, knut!
ohhhhh, i just got it - thanks
anyone have DE 6/30 and DI 5 and 6?
Mom sends her love back, Sprite
um im lost to?
*hearty pat on the back for jai*
De6/30 is plural of De5/18
that would be nice if I had de5/18 - <vbg>
got it. adn DI 5 and 6?
jilli: it is a city in holland where pottery is made. Hence also the name of the pottery. Blue and white.
di5 and 6 - di+plural+not you then plural
oh -- I do have it -- told you I was sleepy!
Okay, I'm logging out as me, and logging in as mom so she can get credit for finished the puzzle at least. G'night everyone, thank you for your support, we both appreciate it. {{HUGS}}
Did you all notice how smootlhly I entered a word from yesterday's grid in there? :)
{{{{{{{knut & jai}}}}}}}

Hi stidmama *hug* and FMitch *hug too*

There is a 6/7 combo there, Krys.

Well all, I am pooped. I was up all last night for a systems downtime. I gotta catch some zzzzzz
thanks for the hint sprite!

zzzzz for me too
it's not that bad Stid... actually goes pretty quickly
Night, phish. And you will, stidmama. Of course you will!
like "unhem" for example.. I can imagine unhemming much more frequently than deinking something!
night night! *poof*
LOL Karys, I tried that one too
hello all

Hi oggy

ooh -- the pr combo I just found works into psychedlic too!

Jill! my poor eyes! warn me first, next time, will ya? LOL

krys got a clue for the im4
the IM word(s) have something to do with African warriors - I just skimmed the definition
abracadabra - fireworks!!
tepid is a ghost word for me today...
Ah, im4: body of Kaffir warriors; a body of native armed men. Yes, Krys, it is a combo.
YAY firefly!

Krys: that contains 2 valid words.

thanks for the help on the im's....
one is not neat, cant figure the last
just got in, jill. sitting quietly, grabbing hints left and right....
phandmd - alright, then one's a bad drug and the other is what you clean up
sprite: I know, but it wasn't a giveaway until you said so :)
hi all!! not a very easy one today!!
Lol Krys, sorry then
or, the bad drug is the not neat one pronounced with a lisp
MG12 - it has it's good and bad moments

Thanks, Jilli - just finished reading Stidmama's story - wow - what a story - and everyone was so good!!

Oh hi, Stidmama - just saying how much I liked your story.
Which EL4, Krys?
hi mayne! thank you!
Fireworks here too

I like to tell stories. making people happy is nice.
YAY sprite!

congrats, sprite!
yay sprite
that helped, thanx
Did you carry on yesterday? If so, what time?
i'm almost there - just the Di5/6 to go
everytime I try to go to back chat log to read stid's story, I crash-- could someone send it as an attachment to baagwe@yahoo.com?
Yes, it was my final word, Krys.
YAY sprite!
Krys: two syllables.
Liba it is posted on BabAnon if you can access that under "other interests"
is that a definition or a description? :)
It took me three tries libarebel - third time I just left for a few minutes to let it think its way out
Woohoo sprite

I did put in another chapter in the evening, can't remember exactly. I will get it up on BabAnon tomorrow morning. The first chapter is already there

Morning Douglas.....you're up very early, or is it very late??
Morning Flask "I live in England now" she whispers
hi Doug
tu4/5
My complaints against the dictionary are irrelevant, but I think "dimed" as in "nickel and dimed" should be a word...
Hello chj!

Really Douglas?!?!?.....Mmmm....I like naughty!!!...lolol;)

what area is loch ness near
hey, i finished before but i have a question, was the z used today or is it space filler?
Surely if you've finished you'd know? Look at your word list!
its somewhat north of edinburgh in the middle of the country
I was quite disappointed to discover that people in Scotland didn't get into kerfuffles...
well paid members have a total thing at the bottom and i was just asking so there is no need to be rude matty, pull your head in
any clues for the e words please/thanks
But the reason I mention it is that there's been a bit of a kerfuffle on this side of the little pond, over President Bush's first veto...
i was hoping to find adze but there was no a in the puzzle
but...just look at the list of words you've got - surely? If you've finished, you still have the list of words you have, yes?
oggy ones a true
A lovely word too, Douglas!!
got i 4/6 5/14 4/5 4/5
bugger, oggy scratch that clue. One e is a a tree
It should be noted that the subject of the bill Bush vetoed is a word in the grid...I was giving an oblique clue...
pls last i clue?
id4 short for identification + long dash
the other e is like a newt
dunno
thanks herin got them.
thanks herinfernallady...
she turned me into a newt...one of the all-time great movie quotes
I got better!
matty i can hardly read my clue list as the print is too small thats why i asked, like it was a hard question to answer a yes or no would be nice.
But...I don't know - because I haven't finished...?
yay ty vvm gnite
I was thinking about that as well, chj!
3 left
Only 40 left! Woo-hoo!
20 left...can I finish by 9.00??
(half an hour from now...)
if youre in england maybe.. if youre in paris no way
Hah!

chj where is that quote from?
clue for de 5 and 6 plz?
phantom tepid
preethi you got de 4/8?
nope :(
From possibly the silliest movie ever made, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, bien sur!
Great film! Run away!
douglas as soon as i typed that in it hopped into my head
i believe it was delivered by terry jones (or maybe michael palin)
ok preethi think of santas helper then add to that
i am a knoght who no longers says nee
is there a good pile of fishies somewhere? I have one little word to go and can't find it for the life of me
where are the pythons when u need a good fish slap
It's an me4/6. There are 4 of them and it's the 3rd one.
jilli how do u make your icon animated..sorry im a computer illiterate

thanks 56
thanks flask i mean
its friday, can you tell
im done with no list.
preethi um what legolas is in lord of the rings?
Preethi do you have that clue?
Got that Herin
Yah oggy
Thanks :)
ok Preethi hunt around that and add letters for the rest of the des bar one
got all of them
)
Please excuse my ignorance because im new here, but why do people keep comingf online and asking how many letters there are in the puzzle..it's right there on the screen.. does that stat disappear after the two week trial period?
yah preethi, knew you could doit, yes chj sadly after 2 weeks the stat screen disappears if you don't pay
ok..maybe im thick...but i cant go anywhere from the santas helper...its an el what?
thats why i asked if there was a z used today
rolin hello
24 words more
Greetings all! I've had my nose in the grid and have finished. Actually I like these shorter grids ... I have more of my day left to get other things finished.
rolling there is no el but if you add letters you get the de clues bar one, trying to help preethi and thats the only clue my brain could come out with
Morning Rolin!
you only get the extras when u go pro and is does not cost a lot to go pro
yah merk
Morning Merk!!
im with you oggy
Someone talked me into pro b/c I thought I didn't need to. But I am so glad that I did.
It is worth every penny ... and it's not many pennies actually for a lifetime use.
i think is cost me about 5pounds
i dont mean to insult anyone but its a small amount for a lifetime membership and it is rather annoying to have to continually answer questions for those of you who are handicapped by not having the statistics in front of you
i would spend on pro but there is 3 reasons i wont which i wont go into
No....infact, it's remarkably cheap!!
trust me i am very appreciative of the fact that people pay, i am just a very broke person right now
ah we don't mind - and there's good reasons why some people can't go pro
Now you have got me wondering Herin!!!!!
well, chj, no one is forcing you to answer any clues :P
herin maybe one day you can go pro.
Morning Atal!
flask i have had no response from dr god regarding a problem i have had and today i am in too much of a happy mood to explain, plus i don't like boot marks on my butt
i agree, but i am a helpful person by nature..it just gets old after a while trying to help people who could easily answer their own questions
i have to wait another 4 hrs till my friends plane lands so i am way to hyper, i thought i would see if anyone needed help and i wanted to see if the z actually was used
chj i go to liketys list to see what the word count for the day is, if no lickty then i ask chat room
what happened to herdarkmistress, herinfernallady? can't you stick to one name please!!
My short term memory stinks, but I don't think I typed a z in any word today. It's purely ornamental.
lol.......well actually and technically you still play the same game as the rest of us...who ARE pro.......but without any fringe benefits!
this is my name atalante and i don't know herdarkmistress. i told you that i was someone else but that was ages ago
merk..its good to have a babler from china
merk i think the z is space filler
I love your icon Flask. I'm too busy to change mine. People can just see my panda and know it is me.
ah right. yeah.
this game is open to everyone guys... let's get over the status...
flask i would like to upgrade but trying to finish studies and move house
Unusual to have an unused letter smack dab in the middle of the grid.
merk you seen the panda puppys?
Thanks Merk!
It's good to be in China.
there were other unused letters..i dont believe the r in the upper left or the n below it were used
and just as many pro players ask for clues than non... alright, that's it for me!
I bet it is Merk.....its somewhere I would love to visit!
No, I am in the northeast, they are in the southwest.
One nice thing is I can start the grid on one day and if I'm too busy to finish, I can go back until 1 the next day.
zoki..you are quite right, it's just the level of the info requested..well im sorry i brought the subject up..it seems to be a sore point for some
merk..if you dont mind my asking, are you a native or just visiting
Good morning all.
who here owns ferrets? i cant remember who?
morning haz..
hi haz!
hi haz..is that a springer spaniel in your icon
chj:....I think its sad if people are made to feel obliged to go pro!
Morning Haz
herin...are you in the uk?
Morning Haz......how are you???
hi haz
Yes, Spangle is a Welsh Springer spaniel - well spotted chj!
theyre lovely dogs
no aus rolin, melbourne
I agree!
is the welsh springer different from the english springer
oh ..ok..cos you asked about ferrets...and there just a report about fashion for ferrets on tv
Remember I asked what rain was yesterday? Well, it arrived overnight. Now I remember!
Well Haz....you're one lucky lady!!
and wasnt it fab hazel..i sat with my head stuck out of the landing window...watching and listening
o.k. rolin they are banned in queensland, i asked because someone here has ferrets and there was a cute photo of them
Yes, the English springer comes in black and white, and liver and white colours. The Welsh is a rusty colour (like an Irish setter) and white, slightly smaller with shorter ears.
rolin in japan you don't see naked dogs that often, dogs where clothes, i cant see a ferret putting up with that
theyre banned in qld????... ya gotta be joking...on what basis...they have to have something that will take on the cane toads..lol
rolin - I wakened to the sound of rain - it does now feel a little fresher, but still humid.
well i can hear my little garden slurping still..its just so depressing watching plants die
rolin darft logic is they will run free if they get lose and cause bedlum, stupid thing is ferrets aren't found of the heat
We haven't any drought measures or anything in force so the water sprinklers have been well used here.
It great how quickly the grass starts to bounce back after a bout of rain
I had visitors last week from America who had visited London. They were amazed at how little grass there was in the parks.
oh youre lucky haz..
its funny mitch....the way my partner put that idea...he didt seem so pleased..lol
ok....see you all later......bye!
10 left!!!
The only time I remember water restrictions here was in 1976. It was the year I did my A-levels so it sticks in my mind.
LOL roling and bye Flask
hi haz
I've just got fireworks with no help from you guys, amazing. It must be an easy puzzle today. bye for now.

Hey Ata, I saw you on earlier, take a look at Monday's log at 03.26
Good morning FranMag.
FMItch - I thought I was the only one who trawled chat logs for evidence!
hi Haz! When do you leave for your trip?
LOL Haz
Not until 20 August, Fran. We've had all our injections - just the malaria tablets to go...
All I want is epsilon cents for each time someone has complained that fest is not in the dictionary, and then I will purchase your puny planet...
i hadn't seen you for a couple nights, thought you had left. lots of preparation i guess for travel into that area of the world.
wheeee, fireworks.. go me
Hooray for Misu!
yay misu!!!!
I've been quite busy at home Fran, and doing the grid as quickly as possible - that's probably why you haven't seen me. And yes, lots to do to face the perils of Africa!

I seem to recall that one of the words is the title of a classic science-fiction movie...
douglas, which word is that?
Okay, time for me to go. I haven't finished yet but will return. Eventually, as Manuel would say. A parting thought. The film 'The Boys from Brazil' was on last night with lots of little Hitler clones. Could something similar be happening down under??
LOL Haz!!!
see you later haz!
Bye Haz, have a good day :)
that's an interesting thought!
oh and know i see why i don't became a paid member, i at least i don't get insulted through a fee

lynxxx, www.quote-puzzler.com
itsyourturn - like scrabble. Not quite so panicky as this site.
TY
oh, okay.
lynxxx, can i give you my referral code in case you decide to subscribe?

Is that "z" any use in this grid today?
you can play for two weeks free, just like here.
not al all angb.
Huh ;)

Yay for MVA
Congrats MVA
the im4/6 is a new word for me, "a body of native armed men"
Actually, not true today. I was baffled, as someone said that he/she'd had finished the puzzle, but was asking whether something appeared in it. Seemed an odd question, that's all! Fear ye not, I am in my box :D
FranMag im4/6 zulu army i think
yes mva, i was looking up words and that was one i hadn't seen in the grids before.
Thanks for the un word. 11 left. Sigh.

strawb, it means to remove someone's he6/24 (protective headwear)

it's un + first 4 letters of the protective headwear
unhelmet
sorry!!
matty, its the berry! I love them!
Ahh. there's a rock group called The Strawbs!
the 7 is with an S on the end
Hey Matty - you can still play though. I know I have been!
Yes, one album of theirs was called "Bursting at the Seams".
thanks, FranMag. Got it.
yw strawb!
Hey lynxx - play what? Strawb, the bassist for the Strawbs drinks in my local...!

What a small world!
Matty. Play with She of 3 Faces with the bad memory.
Bye Fran

Oooh - I see LOL! Is he/she still here?
anyone got help for the un5/14 please?
FranMag, give him regards from a fan way back in the 70's. *Gives her age away*
Sorry, were you talking about me earlier matty? Because I never said I had finished. Check back!
Bye!
Angb: di5/14 take di4/6 and plural it.. but instead put the s right in the middle..
Sorry, not FranMag, but matty.
Angb: di5/14 take di4/6 and plural it.. but instead put the s right in the middle..
Sorry, not FranMag, but matty.
ty philod14. Kind of you.
Not you, Ang! Twasn't you!
OK.
The Strawbs tour again - regularly and worldwide. They have a website - Ang, unless you have a minimum of three other names, it's definitely not you.
I have been called a lot of things in my time. Not all repeatable!
Hi all. Not stopping. Just trying out my icon. BBL.
Have some things to do. Be back later. Bye all.
un 5/14 anyone??

adelaide
i would really like to gt one of those flags you have babble people there very nice and it makes you guys look perfessional lol
You need to pay to get the flags and icons - $14.95 for life membership.
I think you have to pay money ... like subscribe Jess!
Ang? I'm confused? Oooh, no I'm not. I have the mi4/6 and its plural - I'm missing one M from the right hand side, actually...
I'm missing 2 of them and going cross eyed
do you know which ones?
The first 2 me's. me 5/14 and 4/6
me 5 = where drs. go to school + double vowel
me 4/6 vulcan mind *
Thanks phandmd - got the 4, will figure the clue out for the 5!
Got them
yw
me5 - famous renaissance family of italy minus the C
Like that clue Ata
Great clue Atalante - thanks
oh good! didn't know whether I'll completely blank people with that or not!
Where does the quote on your icon come from?
any more clues needed?
Babylon 5 :)
yes want any clues
That's my M got - now I have one S on the top row to get, and the first I on the top row - then I'm done...
be specific about what you want
B5 ROCKS! Except, of course, "Grey 17 is missing"
matty did you want a clue?
jess - do the ME4.5 - what happens to the cheese on top of toast when you put it under a griller. There is a plural too.
I'm having an "I love Marcus Cole" day today!
ok I am out of here; might be back later
Matty - the s's! Get one, mix it up and get the other.
un 6 & un 7...any clues, please?
look at the he 4/6 and play!
Not into sci-fi but great quote - I've been there!
forget it...got them (the un's)
morning--
The only other word using that S is the military word, no?
Yes!
Mix the military men up!
Atalante, your quote reminds me of a Sara Teasdale poem that I can't quite conjure up. Wonderful quote, by the way
Bab 5 really is fantastic for quotes like that - meaningful whether you like sci-fi or not
I find meaning everywhere, to tell the truth. I was big into the Carthaginians (sp) for a while there...
matty--militayr men?>?? I am missing something...
my favourite Marcus / B5 quote is: "“Wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair and all the terrible things that happen to us, come because actually deserve them? So now I take comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the Universeâ€
That is terrific!!!!!
pam - think they are talking about the S4.4 - there is 2 words which are anagrams
I know! Its FAB! I use it as my signature in a lot of places and everyone loves it
blech, "s turned into ?s in that quote. ah well
I ised to use the Tolkien "deserve death?" But myt opposition to the death penalty got in the way of any other discussion....
Military men - as in Yes si*s! School children may use this word as well. It's the other one I need.
ugh, I am the typo queen this morning....
The signature I use is: I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
lol, matty
matty - the other one is an anagram of that. Holy man
yes thats another great one!
Got it - thanks! One word left - the top middle I.
I now use Jimi Hendrix's riff on Gladtone: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.
One of my favourite insults from B5 - "moon faced assassin of joy" used by Londo to describe Vir.
i am stuck on military men...
how many words are there?
its usually a suffix matty. one vowel - 3 consons.
My favourite insult.... arguing on the internet is like competing in the special olympics, even if you win, you are stil retarded.
LOL! I'd forgotten that one! I do love love love love B5
"Baa ba black sheep, have you any wool, yes s**(s) yes s**(s) three bags full"
The military men could also be lords of the realm or knoghts
knights - must clean the keyboard so I can see the letters
"Understanding is a three-edged sword" is always a great one
****FIREWORKS****
yay, matty~
YAY Matty
A great one I heard lately is is "as much use as a fishnet condom"
Good 1 Matty
how many words are there?
oh, cod...thanks matty....Guess i was never good at responding to an order...

Sheridan: "I never thought that there could be anything worse than being all alone in the night." Delenn: "But there is, being all alone in a crowd."

OK di 5/14 and the 6. Like a plate without the last letter and another word for I
clue for me 5/14?
The 6 is the plural
A kiwi arrives - sooo cute
A clue for the me given earlier was a famous Italian family without the C
Yep, cuter than a kangaroo LOL!
kiwis are soooo cute
Absolutely - but cuter than a bilby ? (especially those chocolate Easter bilbys!)
Now I must go to bed now I have subscribed. I felt a bit like a phantom without a picture! lynxxx you'll have to put a roo up! I like roos too (wallabies better though).
'nite ang
put a kakapoo up tomorrow!
Don't know bilbts. What are the fluffy things with short legs and claws. Soooo cute
Will do. Ata - are you a nature buff? Not many know about the kakapo.
Down to 6 and have to go to work. Ain't life infuriating sometimes! bbl I hope.
used to live in NZ :)
Aaah - now I see. Where abouts? I was born in UK - came out here many moons ago.
Auckland - in St Helier's and then Mangere Bridge
You obviously like the water. I'm a way from there, in Ramarama, just before the Bombay hills.
do the di5.14 & 6.24 build on the di 4.6 pls?
love the water! used to spend a lot of sailing there ... I miss it :(
Sort of - stick an s in the middle lf the 4/6
Auckland - city of sails
yes *sigh* you're lucky living out there
Yes, NZ has its pros and cons though. I mean, the population of a medium size city over the whole country, but the few of us share some amazing land.
Done! Yikes that was fast. Now there's nothing to do with the day but melt. "I'm melting, I'm melting! Who would have thought that a little girl like you could kill a witch like me?" Oh, sorry. heat flashback
Very pretty, Aukland - lovely to fly into. and thanks Ang for that lead - fireworks for me also.
yes ... I know it has its downsides, but I'd still move back out there like a flash if I could!
Congrats to the v. speedy Eva
New Zealand has always sounded like the heavenly realm to me. If it weren't half way around the world we wouod have moved there.
Thx Ata, and I'll see you tomorrow. Nite all.
Congrats Eva
congrats lynxx! I'm not normally speedy at all, but there were so few choices in today's grid-narrows the world down to manageable size.
i'm off too - see you all later
hi all,i get home from work and find my wife has left me 10 measly clues to find!!
what a beautiful kiwi chick angb!

Hi all! looks like a strange one today
got both the me 6
Morning amanda, it's actually not too bad.
me 4/6. Need the me 5/14 and me 4/5
and the te 5/14
so far I,am batting zero!
HI Amanda
mend
Preethi ther are only 2 x me4/5 and they ahve both been clued. The te5 is the te4 with an additional vowel
me 4/5 = something untidy
clue for the te 4 please?
got the te5 Fmitch. Thanks
te 4 - not permanent
clue for thr 5/14?
te4 - somthing or someone that is only there for a short time (think jobs)
ah! thanks
at 54. need a me 5/14 and me 4/6
me 4/6- when one tells you "" the word to be quiet, just replace the vowel with another
me5 ends in a double vowel
there are a few 4/6's preeth so i hope that's the one you needed
Thanks Fmitch n Bluephlox. Fireworks!!
Congrats Preethi
hooray!
i have 5 more words to go
anyone have a clue for de 5 or di 5?
ty Fmitch, Bluephlox
now I'm confused - for me4/6's I've got the merger, the restaurant-thingy, and the crystal stuff - are there more?
Congrats preethi
de5 is pl of the 4
Thanks Amanda
Poss the 13th letter of the Hebrew alphabet amanda
neither of my 4's can be made into a plural. will it help if i ask for the de 6?
de5 is blue pottery - think holland, 6 is plural *goes to google hebrew alphabet*
thanks all
di5/14 = in "street speak" if I was rude to you, you would say "Don't d** m*" Ignore my de clue totally wrong. The de5 is a city in the Netherlands where blue and white pottery comes from and pl for the 6
*and was successful - after I remembered to count from right to left*
yep, pretty sure i wouldn't have monkey typed teh netherlands thing. thanks

sydnie - you know already that you need to do some work to find words for yourself. How many have you found yourself?
i'm off, see everyone later
Bye abe.
see ya abe!
haz1558 not many y and i cant find any words cause this is really hard is rollin gone
Rolin is gone, yes. Look for normal four letter words. There are lots of them.
di5/14 anyone? Thanks
Oh boy .. 8p
scroll down ch1212! it's 10c pice with an s in the middle.
di5/14 is like the previous coin di4/6 but put a plural letter in the middle.
Thank you haz!
You're welcome!
Afternoon Haz, hows the grid going for you?
Hi FMitch - I finished a few minutes ago and am now contemplating what to do next!
haz1558_ thanks when did rolin go
sydnie - I'm afraid I don't know exactly.
Congrats on finishing, how about a walk with Spangle? sydnie, she went shortly arter you first came on the first time, white a while ago.
ME 5 please the first one x
A walk with the dog is one possibility. The other choices are having a quick look at the paper, or setting to and making a dessert. I'll end up doing all three, just don't know what order to choose!
Just got back, I still have 7 to find and, by the way, I am away on holiday next week, keep my place warm for me please ?
feeling dumb but just not seeing the pi. Can I have a clue please?
me5/14 - me plus Princess of Wales' shortened first name, then repeat the vowel.
pi4/5 - a slang term for urine.
duh
oh ok then thanks fmitch rolin is my teacher that all
thanks haz, would never put to i's together x
Hi everyone ...am back...to do some babbling this ime....lol
Lara - you probably had a very refined upbringing.
Karys are going somewhere nice?
South of France Flask
Very nice!
wow that is a really nice way to think about it
I like the sound of it Haz !
probably why the pr was so easy to find
Oh lovely.....you been before?
Last year we went just outside Bergerac
Okay - I go. Dessert making first, dog walk next, read the paper as a reward. Happy babbling all!
LOLL Bye Haz
have a good weekend Hax :)
Hi Haz.....have you finished..yes?
ooops...sorry cahnged your name Haz
yea I am done
Do you all like my feet, by the way?

Cute redheaeds Lara
de 5,18 please
I'm off too, all. Happy Babbling!
Done! Now what am I supposed to do on this rainy, yucky day?
For de 5/18, think of a small santa's helper, plus a consonant added to the end
cheers Amanda!
te 5 please x
intersting grid today
te5 stick a vowel on the end
Well done Gramma!
te 5 os plual of musical speed
ty,Flask
Thanks, elalyr
delfts
sorry, typed in the wrong box
How come "demi" is not a word?
or the word hemi??
tezs
ladynoire, no1 knows how these things work. It's sometimes just not worth the effort to figure out.
lady - 'cos it has to be hypenated
not in french
not necessarily
or the grief...Gramma!!!
maybe I shouldnt babble with a migraine
ANyone have a clue for im5/14?
You got it, Flask
I looked up the def earlier and it listed it asfrench and with a hypen. But as gramma says who knows.
you're a brave soul to do that, ladynoire
Scratch that--go it!
In english, its hyphenated, but I think I've seen it used in french with out the hyphen
But I"m doped up on migraine meds, so what do I know
granma thanks x
hi y'all
Not brave, Enig, just desperate for distraction
bad, bad migraine!
omg...you don't have migraine med handy to take?!
IM4 and 5 think of a little devil w/a vowel on the end and then plural
my bad...you do
I just took them, but not working yet
last two the UN 6 and 7 didnt get the clues already given x
you should be laying down (at least that's what I do when I have a migraine).
i always go to the darkest room in the house, lay down, and cut the ceiling fan on
after taking midgrin
I can't - I'm at work
M3 un + the steering of the ship. The captain stood at the ****
I take a daily medication for my migraines - and still get them - take Relpax when they come on
OOOH Lady - sorry, that's the worst - at work with a migraine...
me 5/14 anyone?
will say a little prayer for you, ladynoire.....
why have the grids been so small
i tried relpax...it made my migraines worse
me. 5 double 3rd vowel at the end, was clued for me earlier
me + fourth letter + two vowels
however, my middle sis takes it with no problems
Thanks!
thanks again grandma
yw
how many words are in this puzzle?
56
56
56
huh?
imitrex had the same effect on me - made them worse
Well, I'm off like a prom dress. See you all on Monday.
bye
Last two words: un 6/27 and un 7/40
according to my doctor, the newer migraine meds such as relpax and imitrex don't agree with me...so i need to take older migraine meds
un + he4/6 and then plural for the un7
good w/end Gramma!
don't listen to a mp3 it makes a migrain worse
Fireworks! Thanks for the help
yw
well done SB!!
sunlight and any sound makes my migraines hurt worse

Delay Sitting Dying in the heat The heat from within The burning flame Shivering Shaking from the cold Releasing the toxins Setting it right once more Shaking Hairs upended Purifying the soul To remove all the troubles Weak Unable to move at all Pushing to the limit Too much for one soul to handle Scratching Tearing out the skin An itch from the inside out Wanting to get to it; impossible to succeed Falling Hitting the ground Violent thud A broken body Crying Silent anguish Just one day at a time To break down the barriers of agony Panting Breath isn't coming easily The feel of a thousand bricks Piled on top of a fragile frame Dying No way to win this war No way to overcome Detox incomplete.

© By Maren B. Fischer As a man puts to his lips that dank, sordid liquid, what is he thinking of? Does he realize that he's acting just as stupidly when he first puts it to his lips as he does when his brain is finally drowned in it? Does he recognize the harsh realities brought on' he must- But it seems he doesn't care in the least. When cramped balding cubicle workers keep their printers company as they shoot out file after file of statistics, And smiling reporters, perfectly manicured, sit properly in their seats and sing to the world how many teens were killed that night, And when radio show hosts that giggle at trivia games nonchalantly recite that Jack Daniels murdered a father, how could it not be known? The men must not care, could not possibly care. Lives are torn, thrown bare and emaciated, And minds are lacerated, while the rain simply meets the sidewalk for its nightly date, And soon small rivers are humming softly on their way along the streets, Nicely parting for the occasional empty beer bottle dying alone on the pavement. Wives will throw themselves out windows, husbands, uncles, brothers Dressing in black. They don't say, they never say, 'I don't want to see him in that box- I don't want to see him like that. I want to remember him how he was before.' Because he was already like that. His brain never truly functioned, did it? After he started to shove pint after pint down his throat, When he smiled, his teeth were never really clean, were they? His eyes were never truly focused. He was already dead. The stories have become hackneyed. The tears clich'd. No words escape howling mouths; burning, blazing vocal chords that scream in despondency. As souls hang dilapidated over spiked fences, and the sky pounds out rhythmic words: 'The grass will grow again. The guilt will fade. The questions might not be answered, but you'll move on.' But the heart can only take so much. Hands shake and pulses speed as eyes scan surroundings. Depressants make the minds of others so much more alive. The poison that turns adults into five year olds. But those adults were always children, never giving themselves the chance to grow up. And dying before they had reason to try.
Oh Garden....I love it!!!
whats with all the poetry???
i'm board

*~*~*~Congratulations Kenny*~*~*~*~*
Goodbye my love We tried In the end we can say That instead of tears We smiled wonderful memories Upon what once was But we each know the truth that life holds And the realities that unfold So if love is a dying flame At least we can say That were warm Until the end.

Oh wow, man . . .
LOL tor
di 4/6 plural letter in the middle
GO TOOOOOOORRRRR.. hit it again man
I like mowing at night. I just have to learn to stay out of the neighbors yard
davurs, you did a great job - i appreciate it terribly. didn't clip the garden, didn't wake the neighbors. stop by any time - i'll leave a plate of cookies on the back stairs.
lol...Faerie!
I'll take another shotgun now!!!!!!
no sooner do I return with my cool new icon... then my boss walks in and asks me to do something that requires me to get up from my computer. Imagine my chagrin? And even now I can't stay long. I will be back again.
Yeah, but all this transcontinental travel by mower is a tad wearying...
Hi Garden!
LOL gardengirl
you really ought to try the teletransporter, davurs - it's much less wear and tear on the backside.
ty fer - i'm pondering the grid
Thought that was only for humans. Don
Pucker up, faerie ..
Whoops...think my mower would qualify and I can be quite inhuman at times.
Ok Tor I'm ready *leans in really close*

I'm back, now the tea is in the pot, (no pun intended!)...
bye faerie waves***
bye stinky toes!!!
LOL Jac
*wipes sweat off forehead* phew - close call with the boss.... what did i miss?
Lola - I'm fine thanks, except for an ear infection, an infected mossie bite, a damaged coccyx and a bruised thigh. LOL.
what happend jac?
Jac......time to give up the yoga!!!!!
Lola - And that's just me! Got all but the dsmaged cocyx in Crete. LOL.
oh dear jacs! what have you been up too?? : /
sounds like you had too much fun on holiday, jac!
what happened Jac?
awww... no fireworks now? I just finished my 14-day period :(
but I'm done
Ear infection was caused by pilot who took us to Crete making a very steep and speedy descent on landing. The mossie bite is one of many I got on my legs (as did Paul and also his Mum). They left his Dad alone. Maybe he doesn't taste so nice! The bruise was sustained on a jeep safari into the Dikti Mountains.
~*~*~*~*~*~*FIREWORKS*~*~*~*~**~*~ for arturion. i strongly suggest going pro....
methinks I'll stay at home....lol
jacs, i hate those cowboy pilots : /
Well done ART!!
oh wow Jac
...and what does dad drink? I have a theory that's why the mossies leave some of us alone : )
heh... thanks. I might just go pro, I'm also thinking of going pro for iron sudoku so I can play the archives
...and then there's Paul. He trod on a Scorpion Fish (like a Weaver Fish; spiny) on the last day and had to go to hospital over that when we got home. Yesterday, he cut his hand on a glass in the sink and had to go to hospital again for stitches. So, his left foot and his right hand are bandaged up now.:( What a paor we are!
what is a mossie?
mosquito, I think
lola - if you figure out the answer, will you please let me know? i get swarmed from head to toe...
oh
fiz....if i ever stop mixing my drinks i might! lol....and you'll be the first to know : D
OMG - is that really you lola??
lupe!!!! :D :D :D :D
...how's you?? :)
I've missed you!! How are you?? I'm ok.
i'm good thanks! missed you too! : ' )
Lola - His Dad was drinking Mythos, the local beer, and Raki, the local firewater. As was Paul. I've been told that eating Marmite puts mossies off. It's the Vitamin B1. You can just take the tablets though.
no jacs...it's the marmite. mossies are actually VERY intelligent.
Lola - LOL!
: D
....and isn't there vit B in beer?
rather have itchy bites than eat marmite :(
Mosquito advice (straight from my GP): take vitamin B1 tablets for a fornight before going on holiday and during your holiday. Puts the little blighters off.
me too fizz : / blech!
*fortnight
I love Marmite. Paul hates Marmite.
it's nice to finally see names I recognize (jacula, shorty, faerie, lola) - wow. almost feels like home again.
now whats marmite?
skin-so-soft by Avon, works well, it is used by the marines on Paris Island, which is a buggy swamp
interesting. wonder why they don't like vitamin b? the biologist in me wants to know....
awwww.... *gives lupe a big squeezy hug* {{{{lupe}}}} : )
true, bubba - i'm like a mosqutio buffet and it even works for me.
thx - big hugs for you ((((LOLA))))
*gets a little emotional and feels happy* :' )
Anyway, Lola. How are things with you?
...you might even see Anj later too.... ; )
Cool!!
jacs, good thanks! I'm working again now, so not much time to babble unfortunately.
Lola - What's your job? (If you don't mind saying.) Anj., too? Champion!
bye for now
Fiz - Re the mossies. I just found this for you:As a prevention for insect bites, garlic and vitamin B1 (thiamine) supplements are effective, as they give off an unfavorable scent to the insect. A vitamin B complex can be added to B1 for several weeks to prevent imbalances. Use brewer’s yeast supplements for pets, or nutritional yeast for humans. Garlic is more effective against ticks. Take these supplements several days before and throughout a trip to wooded, damp areas. Very high doses of vitamin C, taken together with calcium, can be used effectively to combat the *allergic and toxic effects of all kinds of bites, even against venomous spiders and *snakes. The calcium also seems to markedly reduce the *pain.
Daily Dosages * Vitamin C, with bioflavonoids, 4,000-10,000 mg immediately following a bite and 1,000 mg every few hours * Vitamin B1, 50 mg twice daily * Garlic, 2 capsules three times daily * Vitamin B complex, 50 mg daily * Calcium, 1,200 mg Herbal Remedies Herbal remedies can promote healing of the *skin, decrease inflammation, help the body cleanse residual toxins from the blood and boost the *immune system. * Yarrow reduces the *itching and swelling, while lemon balm, plantain and ivy leaves soothe and heal. Crush or gently rub leaves on the bite. * Aloe vera gel is excellent to soothe and heal the affected skin. * Citronella oil is a natural insect repellent that should be rubbed on the skin and is safe for children and *pregnant women. Keep away from eyes.
jacs, i'm working in Lush. felt like a change from the drawing board and i basically get paid to talk- i'm very happy, lol! : D

*Runs in with an armload of >Lush< brand massage bars and balms* Anything I can do??

Rainbows created my imagination As it arched across the sky On one end there sat you At the other end, there sat I Imagining I could slide across Over the rainbow to the end There would be my pot of gold The sweet love of my dear friend The rainbow is a connection Like a bridge from me to you It appears joined by sunlight Then the grey skies turn to blue Arriving after the rainstorms It became so evident to me Thoughts of love follow rainbows They arched right across the sea A colourful arching rainbow It has no gate, it has no door It reaches from friend to friend It arches from shore to shore I smiled up today at the sky How far would my loving smile go It slid right over to the other side The other end of the coloured rainbow
Oh, I haven't finished yet.

Sometimes I sit alone in my room Thinking about what I want to tell the world But my message loses it's meaning When i take a look at the messenger Sometimes I sit alone in my room Praying to God about things I need But while my right brain talks to God My left brain is deep in sleep Sometimes I sit alone in my room Reading the book of God's Holy promise But as my eyes scan familiar stories My heart has forgotten their meaning Sometimes I sit alone in my room Thinking about what I want to tell the world But my message loses it's meaning When i take a look at the messenger Sometimes I sit alone in my room Praying to God about things I need But while my right brain talks to God My left brain is deep in sleep Sometimes I sit alone in my room Reading the book of God's Holy promise But as my eyes scan familiar stories My heart has forgotten their meaning Sometimes I sit alone in my room Thinking about what I want to tell the world But my message loses it's meaning When i take a look at the messenger Sometimes I sit alone in my room Praying to God about things I need But while my right brain talks to God My left brain is deep in sleep Sometimes I sit alone in my room Reading the book of God's Holy promise But as my eyes scan familiar stories My heart has forgotten their meaning

anyone need any hints on strange babblets that appear in today's grid?
sorry! wrope it in the wrong place!
hi Mich! okay, the second chapter is up at BabAnon/Other Interests -- I also noticed that Jai lost her father. I am so sad. Will go put my two cents in there...
Mich - how about id4/6?
nevermind got it
stid r u going to have another chapter
How about the im's
it's latin for "something prev. mentioned" often in footnotes - take beg. & add word meaning a long dash
sorry, took too long with the expl. :)
I will have another chapter, but it need to be later. Seems one of the dogs tore a toenail -- and of course it's the one who is neurotic. Not sure how I'll get him sedated enough to take care of it.... *reaches for benadryl and doggie xanax*
later all!
stid, I have been missing your saga, but saw that I can catch up at BabAnon.... good luck with the pooch!
good luck stid!
Hello to the fellow Babblers! How is everybody doing?
Godbye stidmama! Maybe I will see you later on today
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers!YAY!
im's -- relatives of pixies, elves, etc. are im** , make it into a word that seems like an adjective with the 3rd vowel instead of sometimes vowel
hello minver!
Does anyone have a clue for the de 5/18 word please
hey minver!
Fireworks - anyone want a clue before I go
Congratulations Molly2 on your fireworks!Good for U!
minver, it's a kind of porcelain, de***ware, cont. of word above it
add the cross letter to the de4/8 if you have it
hello all.
de5,18
tnx Minveryork
Hi evanonut!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
hi mnvery! do i look different? cause i just set up my new comp.
cnufrog, Molly2 just clued the de 5/18 word for me.
Any one get the me5/14?
evan, the song on your profile is HILARIOUS!!!! love the icon
why thank you mich!
Sorry evanonut.Not sure what you looked like before
*sigh* i'm sooooo forgettable.
Does anyone have a clue for the di 5/14 word please?
LOL nut - love the icon!
lady, if you were to latin plural the news me***, you'd have the word
*bows to fiz* - - - coming from fiz, that's a compliment.
minver, it's an old spelling of the di 4/6 above -- add a cons. in the middle
Mich, can you simplify that ?
*looks down at pen pathetically stuck in neckline of shirt* i'm oddly jealous
grrr. I still can't get it. I must be totally missing it
well fiz, if the shirt holds it, then you must have cleavage...so that's something.
lady, the last two vowels are the same
nut weren't you around for this discussion yesterday, about how ink-stained cleavage is the hot summer look?
frog, do you have the de 4/8?
Fiz, do tell! that's a look I haven't tried yet :)
cnu - d + keebler guy + cross consonant
Mich,I try adding a t to the di 4/6, but it didn't work
actually, i think i was...*regards trendy spot on right breast*
STill not getting it - did I mention I'm taking migraine meds?
I also try adding another d to di 4/6 and didn't work.
thanks! FINALLY
Mich - works best if you use a roller ball or fountain pen and wear a white shirt. put the cap on the back of your pen, then hook the pen on the neckline of the shirt. before you notice, you'll be a trendsetter.
I have the di 5/14 word mich. Thanks for your clues!
ooh, so sorry lady... I hate migraines. ok, try this.... what a doctor practices, abr. + two of the same vowel in a row
geek squad trends...
it's particularly good if you're on your way to a job interview - not that i know from personal experience or anything
i think its what got me my current job actually, that or my stellar personality.

Their HQ is about 10 mins from my house

I've escaped the torture chamber for the moment; I can give some more clues if needed.

I used to work for the Red Cross, I ran blooddrives - well, we used to run a blood drive at PHE every 8 weeks or so

"the nation's largest manufacturer of adult products"
np ATA
woo hoo! it's confirmed, we're closing early. too bad, too, since i'm having such a productive day. see you later, lady
Later Fiz
bye fiz
the sorta gross part about working in the naughty store is that you invariably run into someone you know and never wanted to picture having sex. And they're always buying something... outside the mainstream...that gives you WAY too much info.
ewww yes I bet. like neighbours or friends of your parents ...
I'm back .. did I miss anything?
and retail is retail - your feet hurt, you get sick of being nice to people, you get your shoplifters, your crazies looking to get out of the weather, etc., all heightened by the nature of the store.
LOL, that ups the ante a bit : )
Retail and phone support suck - I'd rather dig ditches
Fiz, that is soooooo true LOL
Later, folks - its been fun!!!
well, thank goodness, ata, i don't live near my family. but co-workers, and friends parents, and generally icky people.
OKay, so I done, but I don't see fireworks. LOL
hi everybody! and bye lady!
go pro, frog!!!!
yay cnufrog!!
and good work!
I guess since it seems no one needs clues, I have to go back to the torture chamber AKA my 11 yr old son's room
not a pro. This one was much easier then yesterdays. This was only my 2nd one
unless...
...zip zip wooooosh *K*A*B*O*O*M* fweep fweep fweep... Howzat??
*hands phandmd the clorox wipes* sure you can't help with that one that rhymes with orange?
THAT IS GREAT Anj... Thanks!
phan, you could just spout off random clues for anyone lurking.
sorry, phan, I would tell you I needed clues, but I finished ages ago
lol anj! dangerous to set off fireworks while streaking....
oh, well off I go then
...it's ok, i'm told I have a long fuse...
Thanx for those chlorox wipes
*groans and shakes head in anj's general direction*
good luck phandmd! you'd think with all those letters you'd have a better use for your time!
anj, have you done the sudoku today?
No,haven't been the numbers for a while...
me neither....gonna have a go : )
Okeefenokeedokey : )
Sorry I'm missing the reunion - I've had to put some time in my "real" job today GGRR!!

Hey I'm back for the pipe.

Lol
peace and love, sista
sex, drugs and rock and roll
we should have a 60's theme day really LOL
*holds fingers up in V*
Peace Fiz
I'm hip to that, faerie ..
you know, watching pee wee's playhouse is almost like doing drugs. they've got it on cartoon network at night and it's wild.
not like the 60s - more like a surrealistic future - but very trippy.
anyway - just popped in to see if i could give any clues for a few minutes - i'm going to be a good doobie and give blood this afternoon.
HELLO.....Hello....hello
I love pee wee's play house
ECHO echo e c h ooooo
Hello everyone!
Multi - slacking, fiz . . . sorry

High Ibdawger
I like that... me too... multi-slacking
hi lbd!
Lol Tor I do that really well
wow, I like these easy grids! easy on the leetle grey cells
Fiz what the heck is the Big Blue Bug?
Well, we had Poetry Corner earlier ..
Oh my word did we ever and it was morbid
so, other than trippin' down memory lane, what's everyone up to?
the bong is up!
faerie - it's a rhode island landmark. it's a big termite named nibbles located right off the highway - they dress it up in appropriate outfits for different holidays (rudolph nose, uncle sam hat, etc).
Fiz that is sooooo cute. I'd love to see it in person
SOunds trippy!
put it up for hurshy but i haven't seen her since. not exactly psychedelic but it is kind of surreal.
well I gotta get off of here and get some work done. Happy Babbling everyone!!!!! Peaceout
well if you're ever on rt. 95 in RI you can't miss it. it's such an institution that a highway relocation project has been designed so as not to disturb it
*grabs pipe*
bye faerie.
so - i went to the grocery store last night, and got my tabloid fix in the checkout line. And i've got this burning question.
Do you live near Quahog, Fiz?? (ha)
lance bass of n'sync has come out of the closet - like we didn't all have our suspicions from the get go....
lol krista - love that show!
Me too! Saw your post about PeeWee..never saw it on CNetwork..when is it on?
just before FG, krista - watched them back to back last night when i was too hot to sleep.
yeah finished! fireworks! woo hoo!
yay ypsi!
Lance? My hag-dar was off on that one. Oh, we watch Alton Brown at 11 - will definitely tune in for PeeWee, ty.
TheFiz -- you are absolutely correct about the termite. I travel to RI during November and March. Of course, I must see what it looks like on any given day. It is not the most attractive landmark, but it is visible!!
we love Alton Brown too!
anyway - my question - do you think that lance will be able to explain to his friend JC Chasez why some girls dance with women now?
He's so funny - great edu-tainment, ypsi!
lol pbr! it's now featured in a PSA about speeding through the S-curves
yeah I saw the people magazine with Lance's picture and in huge yellow letters across his chest it reads I'M GAY and I was like , so what
You mean papa Chris never talked to JC about the birds n bees?
okay, finally got to sign up for pro! woo hoo
Yay lbd! best return on investment EVER...
Wasn't JC Chasez linked with Eva Longoria a while back
true confessions: saw N'Sync live, but only to take my niece (they are not of my generation anyway)..I was a Duranie
i avoided the boy-band craze, but my partner was nuts for nkotb.
she used to make her dad drive her to boston to stalk joey.
my sister loved nkotb
lol
to this day, her password for everything is joey mcintyre's birthday. so if you figure out who i am in real life you'll be able to hack into my (oh so exciting) voice mail.
LOL! They were so lame. I saw Joey on something recently, can't remember what.
that people cover was so Ellen from 10 years ago...
"dimed" (as in "he was nickel and dimed") is not accepted here. why not?
I was into The Cars, too. I made my parents take me to Boston to stalk Ben Orr.
exactly
I wondered that too marj
Marjorie, that is a question you will hear here every day about many many words.
I am off... have a good night everyone.
the mysteries of the enable dictionary, marj. yesterday, it was hench...
bye ypsi. good night
'Night, ypsigirl!
ok - gotta leave in 2 mins - last call for clues....
TheFiz -- I tried downloading the Jamestown (?) just before it was going bye-bye earlier this year. I have it on my computer, I was trying to make it my picture here. Today, stuck with a flower. Up until last week it was the lighthouse by the hotel in Newport.
oops left out the word bridge
Is that a hibiscus, pbr?
I just started the grid, Fiz, but thanks.
i got ya, pbr - it was a lovely span and i miss it. what brings you to RI twice a year?
Krista -- I believe so. I shot the picture in Disneyland earlier this year.
it's a lovely flower, pbr, nothing to be down about...
I have friends on the Island and we try and get together twice a year -- once for a thanksgiving lobstah and the other for a convention.
It's a good pic, yes.
Thanks Krista
you're there the right time of year, pbr - it's too crowded to be fun in the summer, and the traffic is awful.
ok - off to save 3 lives - may be back later. have a good afternoon and weekend, everyone.
I'm off too-- be safe
you've got me curious about that, now, Fiz...catch you both later

rubs eyes...it is really only 56 words??? wow!!
yes EB....and its quite a friendly beast too!
yep. Only 56 words. is everyone caught up on the story?
Yes, sorry, steph -- duh to me! The di ones are a snake in the middle of a ten-cent coin and its plural
di 5/18 di + one of the senses (taking off the last two same consonants)
wow...I just jumped in to see how 'bad' it might be...I just might work on this when I get home (I'm still at work...ugh!!) 8 )
stid - how many days have you done the story???
only two so far, did the second chapter yesterday.
where can we read it Stid?
thanks! got it!
At BabAnon, Other Interests
I'll have to go back & read (I didn't even get a chance to finish the first day...) but it IS wonderful story so far 8 ) {{{{{stidmama}}}}....
what story?
I can't get into Bab Anon at work...it'll have to wait 'til I get home...
The second chapter does NOT build on the first, but gives more background on other characters
Love your icon, stid! Have to catch up on the story - I only saw Chapter One, as you know. BTW, Hetty's having computer problems.
ok.....I shall do it in a few mins!
oh, shutter...stidmama started telling wonderful story the other day when leighprefect said she was bored after finishing the short grid the other day...
Oh Stid....thats super!!
oh, great! I will have to read it. is it true or made up?
I wondered about hetty's non-visibleness! Thanks for letting me know, Jill
All made up, shutter.
shutter - made up...stid is VERY creative!!
(stid is very a mama)
okie dokie, going for a look.
Me too - going to catch up.
Stid did Hetty manage to read it?
please don't tell me what happens....I'll catch up once I'm home : )
don't know -- Jill? do you know if Hetty was reading the story?
cool stid! I read a tiny bit just now and the funny thing is we have ten kids and live across from a prak! for real!
okay, EB -- (shhhhh) we won't tell you about the *mumble mumble* or the *XXXXXXXXsssshhhh*!

Mmmm ...Jam! What knid of jam?
*kind*
ok, 56 and out!
A few times, Avebury is wonderful, the "devils den" is located in a farmers field about 2 miles away. Since it is a historic site it is open for people to walk the field. Except when he has the bulls there.

We are doing a jam and jelly marathon today -- Mother brought us three flats of raspberries and one of marionberries. Canning some of those, freezing a little. We are also taking care of some frozen berries from last year (and the year before) and making a mixed jelly with those...
YAY A-Rod!
Hooray A-Rod!
hooray for a-rod (hard to say coming from boston)
that is cool that you have been to Avebury, bubba. Someday, when I have the money (read that in my dreams) I will go to some of these places.
Popping in to say Hi to all! woohoo A-Rod

hello Judy!
Hi, Stid. Sorry I've been AWOL for a few days. Very busy at work and at home.
ty...and you can have A-Rod for Manny or David, aknitter LOL

If you get the chance you should go to Avebury, probably the most impressive stone circle in the world. Also the most significant

so -- I have a short time it turns out before Tom needs me in the kitchen -- is there anyone still here who does NOT want me to give the next chapter in the story?
Please give it stid! But llet me get a sammie first!
okay.... will start soon. time to grab popcorn, cookies, sodas, kleenex and pillows...
hi everybody!
hi Fran! very brilliant today!
yes, nice colors!
i haven't read chapter two yet! what time did you start it yesterday?
or did you post it at babanon?
Hello..I'm a long time lurker here but I need help....!
what do you need charlie?
Chapter two is up at BabAnon. i can wait a little to tell it while you get caught up.
I'm 2 short of completing.. an me 4 and an me 5 and just can't minkey type my way to the finish!!
okay, brb
what do you need, charliesmom?
monkey type either..sorry my typing is appalling:D
me 4: try me + abbreviation for Multiple Sclerosis
got that one
the only me 5 is the plural of what cheese does on a pizza...
(thanks)
my stats tell me I have one x4 left and 1x5, both off the m and according to lickety, both me words but I have the pizza one
so you might be missing the me 4 that snow does when it gets warm, and then plural it for the 5
oooh -- I was wrong! (no surprise) the very first ME is weird.
Fran...who or what is Groove Baby?
ME +Princess ** (mother of william and harry) + repeat that vowel
okay, i'm caught up!
got that one too (monkeys at work!) I just can't figure what could possibly be left..driving me nuts as I never get this close!
chj, it says groovy baby, just a image i found googling.
hello all lovely babblers... might i have some clues for the u's? i have the 5/12 but no others :)
the ME fours are defined in order as to combine or put together to liquify from a solid the weird one I clued earlier what you look at to know what a restaurant serves the me** kids leave behind if they cook the illegal drug made from sudafed
i thought it might be a group or an album name
Arrghhhhh
okay, starting the story now....
charliesmom -- are you okay?
may be chj, it was just a random image
I got it..it wasn't me at all it was an mi I thought I had done..doh I am so daft... but I have my first ever fireworks!
yay charliesmom!!!!
LOL and YAY charliesmom!
thank you for you help:D
*settles skirts and grabs teacup* okay, let's go back to the twins.
chakra, here are the Us un6/27 to remove protective head gear un7/40 plural un5/14 without a leader
congrats, now you have that little twinkle in your eyes
They had decided, after putting the donkey in the stable, to look again at the cart.
charliesmom - click my icon for more fireworks - groovy ones!
Carefully, they began inspecting the sides, noticing that one side had been repaired, and the other looked scarred as if it had scraped against a wall for a while.
The front of the cart held a simple bench seat, worn smooth from use, with a box underneath that held a whip and a hoof file and frog.
*oops frog cleaner!*
*whispers to jilli* what's frog cleaner?
The main compartment in the cart was fitted with holders for a canopy, and tie-down cleats.
*snuggles down with sammie* (I think it cleans the bottom of hooves)
There was a good bit of dirt in the corners, but the bottom looked as if it had seen hard use.
(thanks jilli)
*background moment. The inside of a horse or donkey's hoof is soft, and is called a "frog" -- sometimes dirt/mud or rocks get caught up in it and make it uncomfortable for the animal to walk. The frog cleaner is a hook that has a dull point -- specially for cleaning the hoof.*
Stid, sounds like I'm listening to Piers Anthony
(you were right jilli)
At one point, the cart had been painted, inside and out, and must have been quite pretty when it was new.
(thanks, bubba, to me that is quite a compliment!)
*wriggling for being right*
The twins popped inside and snagged a hard-bristle brush, a bucket of water, and a few rags.
They set to work, carefully removing the grime, first outside, then inside.
Under the bench, wedged between the floorboards, they found a small key.
In the back, a length of rope turned out to be quite strong and they rubbed off the dirt and set it on the fence while they continued working.
Alice's?
The slightly older twin found a large silver coin in one corner as he brushed it out.
The other twin found a small ring -- with an inscription in a foreign language.
(interesting comment jilli. could the story take a turn into fantasy?)
They put these finds into their pockets and continued working.
(stid can go anywhere...)
They discovered only a few loose boards that were quickly secured with nails, and soon turned their attention to the wheels.
The wheels were in abysmal shape.
No longer completely round, they were also warped. The iron that bound them had been worn thin and in places was almost gone. One or two of the spokes were missing completely, and several others were cracked beyond repair.
In Xanth, things are not always what they appear to be
They wondered that the cart had made it home from the Inn, let alone back to their village@!
(i was wondering the very same thing.)
Shaking their heads in amazement, and sharing thoughts, as twin often do, they looked under the cart simultaneously, one from the right at the rear and one from the left near the front.
I am needed in the kitchen. Can we "pause the story" -- brb
(jilli, just looked at your profile...all i can say is thank goodness it isn't animated in the log!)
I made sure of that, Fran!
like totally far out jil!
thanks jilli! it would have been migraine or maybe even seizure inducing!!
hi rennie!!
Stid I have managed to read the first part of the stort....where is the second part?
hey ya fran!

flask, both parts are at bab anon under other interests.
"story time with stidmama"
so is the second part written differently from the first?
ren, love the cool pocket protector! or is that an oxymoron?
hi ren! Love your wacko profile!
Yes flask, but continues right under it - with comments by the kids in the audience
not sure what you mean flask, but it's following the same storyline, just different characters.
i'm not sure jil & fran..it was late and nut dared me...i may have been typing in my sleep...

demp
When the young men looked under the cart, they were astonished.
Blue china pluralled
Not only was the wood completely intact, but it appeared to be brand new!
The iron brackets holding the axles were in perfect condition.
how about the E in the lower left
think tree, jbp
lower LEFT. ;-)
The axles were strong, with iron collars spaced regularly along the length.
no -- think newt babies - sry - to absorbed by stid's story
thanks jilli
yw
A grease bucket hung predictably near the rear, and it also appeared to be new: no dents, no scars. Only a small bit of dust adhered to the foreward edge of the bucket.
The twins crawled under the cart and met in the middle.
hi everyone
hi saph
"What is with this cart?" whispered one.
hi saphyre!
hi saph - stid's storytelling
The other opened his mouth to reply, then shrugged. Each sat silently for a moment looking at the other.
They examined the axles with their hands, as if to test the veracity of their eyes.
They ran their finger tips over the joinery and fittings, checking for flaws.
There were none.
Slowly, the backed out from under the cart and stood up.
my monkey minions and I still have 6 left...
Once again, they walked around the cart, examining in detail each corner, each scar, each trace of paint, each road-weary inch.
gooo jbp! ask for clues, it's okay.
i'm workin it
One twin picked up the tongue. The other took up position at the back. Slowly, they moved the cart from in front of the house to the stable.
need one top s, and 2 ms
and
1 p
and the i on the right
but that's just me
to *** with love plural and an anagram of the same
Parking it in front of the doors and setting some firewood under the wheels to keep it from rolling, they moved almost in unison -- putting the rags on the fence to dry, dumping the water at the base of a small fruit tree, setting the brush and the bucket on the back steps.
thanks saph...not up on my titles for men in India
The twin who had slightly darker hair reached under the cart and removed the grease bucket.
i - a little sprite with an extra eye
Walking toward the barn, he stopped in his tracks and turned toward his brother.
wierdly i have that one jilli
make jillis clue plural
With a look of amazement, he held the bucket out and broke into a great grin.
and its plural?
jbp, another i is and it** of clothing, change first consonant.
yep i have that too
The bucket did not hold grease. It held
*wondering what's in the bucket*
omg, thanks fran
sitting at the edge of my seat
a perfectly fitted box, painted dark with glossy paint.
you don't have to call me that jbp! :-)
lol
The young men stood silently, looking at each other and wondering what the box contained.
*is that what the key's for???*
what Ms do you have? by points?
*open the box, open the box*
(is there enough tension in the room, or should I stall a little longer?)
tension is high - whats in the box
ms 5/14,4/5, 5/12, 4/6, 4/5, 4/6, 4/6, 5/14
WHAT IS IN THE BOX??????
The wind rustled in the treetops, the sun moved lower in the sky, putting the entire yard in shadow.
stid, you're a fiend! Open the box!
you need me 4/6
jbp, you're missing me4/6
right after the first ME
The twins walked into the house with the bucket and set it on the kitchen table.
oh, the vulcan mind m++++
and i still need one more m
Hearing them come in, their brother and sisters joined them and they sat down.
jbp, do you have the list of things available at a restaurant?
The youngest sister advised them to wait until their mother returned with news.
no, thanks FRAN
bill of fare
The youngest brother urged them to open it quickly.
1 left,,,, and it's a p
*yes, do!*
The three sisters who were so close in age just looked at each other and waited.
listen to the youngest brother!!
have pee, glass/light thing and nellie olson
plural for the glass
open open open open open
plural jbp!
The slightly younger twin located the latch on the box in the bucket.
cute, a reference to little house on the prairie!
The slightly older twin took out the key they had found.
hoooray!
thanks all!!!!!
yeah, i just dated myself
He tried it one way, and it did not fit.
YAY jbp!
tell us what's in the boxc!!
congrats
He tried it another way, and it went in but would not turn.
yay jbp!!!
Stymied, he looked around.
So now I am back from the store ready to give clues galore! Just ask me for a clue,I will see what I can do for you! Just put my brain to the test, I'll try to give a clue that's best.I need practice so ask away! I can clue for the rest of the day!
The younger sister reached for the box, and her brothers pushed it toward her. Feeling with her hands, she grasped the key and pushed on one side of the box.
*ooh, a trick latch*
Min -- I am almost at the end of this chapter.... do you want to see the surprise, or do you want to come back in five minutes?
Congratulations jbp on your fireworks! Good for you!
You could start reading in the archives and get caught up fairly quickly. I think I started an hour ago?
*whispers to jilli* (that was the blind one, right?)
*waits for Min's reply*
I willl come back in 5 minutes.Don't want to interrupt
okay, see you soon!
The key started to turn, then stopped.
(yeah -- extra sensitivities)
Biting her lip, the girl felt around near the latch, and with a satisfied smile, jiggled it.
The key turned the rest of the way.
She pushed the bucket back to the center of the table, and her three sisters put their hands to their hearts in anticipation.
*me too*
Her youngest brother was practically dancing from excitement, and the twins were humming nervously to themselves.
oooo...just finished babanon...jumping back in log to catch the start of the next chapter....
One twin held the bucket, the other lifted the lid of the box. They sat down, and poured the contents all over the table.
There, between the children, were small, colorful stones, bits of glittering chain, coin of all shapes and sizes.
(this is where they always cut to a commercial)
lol
The youngest girl put out her hands and felt among them.
She lifted a small carved bird out of the pile and held it to her ear. Experimentally, she put it to her lips.
cool! : )
can anyone help me with the pr6 please?
From the bird came the most lovely, clear tone they had ever heard. In that tone was the warmth of their mother's love, the strength of their grandfather's hands and the joy of a child's first butterfly.
plural of the 5/24 before it
plural pr5/14
button, plural of the pr5/14 which is a piece of glass that breaks light into a rainbow
Quietly, then with more excitement, they passed the bird around. For each, the bird gave a different tone -- with its own story to tell.
I don't have the pr 5/14!
fran just gave it to you
The rest of the cache remained untouched and forgotten.
button, the Pink Floyd album cover. a triangular (sometimes) piece of glass - light goes in one end and the other, you see a rainbow.
got it Fran, thanks..got both!
And the evening drew slowly in, casting a warm light around the kitchen and caressing the family inside.
yw button!
*and that is the end of the chapter.*
applauds
I am needed in the kitchen again, my friends. I hope you will all have a pleasant evening. See you tomorrow!
anyone have a clue for the di6 or the de6?
awww! this is gorgeous, stid! how long has everyone been enjoying your story? I just came in when the kids sat down at the table with the box and the key didn't fit.
***APPLAUSE FOR STID!!!!!*****
oh nooo!
awww! can't wait for the next installation!
bye bye, stid. *waves* : (
bye stid and thanks :)

oh! yeah...thanks stidmama!!! what lovely images again....
jilibus - there's nothing like having a story told to us, and when people interrupt and slow the story-teller down, that makes it even better cos you get so frustrated waiting! lol!
{{{{{{{{{{BABS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
REN!! AND EB!!! Oh wow!! (((( hugs you guys!!)))
eb!
I didn't think she was going to tell us what was in the box this chapter... : )

i'm waiting to go home...one last chemist.....
i have 36 words
Fran - what's the baby's name?
36 words left that is
stid really is an amazing storyteller...she should publish this once it's finished...
jilli, her name is Giada, we call her Gigi.
and you can draw the pictures eb
uh..not sure how to do this, Fran..do I just pick the room with the fewest minutes to launch?
we can get another babbler, like artlady to illustrate it!
jillibus, i don't get the snake thing!
Sweet, Fran -- now I remember you told us a while ago - both kids have unusual G names, right?
babbler's an excellent story teller as well. one night she had mama, torg, and me involved in her film noir story line!
krista, i think we can start our own table, not sure how though!
Fran - what a pretty name...
yes jilli and we wanted Gillian first, but someone else used it!!
oh yeah!! LOL! that was a fantastic night. we had a film noir going on in the chat log.
button the letter S looks like a snake, yessss?
oh, hold on...a know a little girl names Giana..so close
krista, go to syllable central
it was so much fun - i really liked the part where you pushed torg out of the taxi!
LOL!! XD I rejected him cos he rejected me!
got it, thanks jilli!
thanks
I figured it out..i'll be at crossword corner..need to know # of players
krista, that was one we considered also, but with two Ns
"But we'll always have Paris"
and it was snowing and ice was on the road!
Lucky Gigi!
the snow falls in moscow
dismes

rennie - I don't know if I'd do it justice...I can see these beautiful images in my head...but mine are always 'cartoony'....
yw button
yes!
wrong box, button!
what was the other one? "the crow flies at midnight"
anyone else want to play scrabble?
jilli, i am new at this but every time I learn a new one like the snake, i remember it so i am growing,..
no thx fran -- gotta go!
i don;t remember babbler!
yeah, I can't remember them all now.
my last 6 is the de 6...any clue?
de6 is the plural of de5
they are archieved somewhere last winter.....under the snow in moscow.
I remember we started off trying to cheer up Mamabear and it ended up me chucking Torgone out of a taxi
that was it - you were the hit lady dressed in black
haha! with perfect lipstick!
trench coat, boots..and torg as you sidekick1
standing in the shadows, about to light up, but then I saw the no smoking sign! lol
This sounds like another good story, re, babbler, and all! Sorry I wasn't babbling then
yes..in the building where mambear works!
yeah it was last winter sometime, jilibus
that's right!! oh I remember! Torgone and I were spies and we were going to 'take out' these rotten colleagues who were upsetting our Mamabear.
I've said it before -- this is so much more than a game!
jil - maybe mama can remeber the time frame - chicago was iced over and mama was having car trouble.
I hope she can!
didn't you describe the music and atmosphere, ren?
Hetty and I are having computer trouble - maybe you guys can fix it?
I guess I need a clue for the de5please!
and people in her office were treating her really bad..so our babbler flew over...yes i think i was sound effects
button - blue and white Dutch china, and city (same word)
i've got one left! clue for me5/14?
hi you all

button the de 5 is a type of blue and white dish
oh you are the most terrific spy babbler!
Wow! Great Google!
de5 is plural too?
what on earth did you type?

I typed "the snow falls in moscow babs"

hehe, yup, Rennie! ; )
yes - she was working late trying to get a project completed.
clue for me5/14?
me 5. lots of docs., 2 vowel ending
thats strange, Anniebrook. I've not noticed that before. Maybe it's just a glitch in the matrix?
thanks annie!
I dont care about the ranking, ill never be up there but if i work to fin ish i like to see my name. i finished this one too, so, lets see what happens later.
yw rennie
maybe you don't see your own name?
not getting it Annie,
rennie, i thought of that but then i went back and really looked. no big deal but if it happens again, im taking it up with the Big Gyuy
*Guy
I have the si4/4 - how one addresses a group of men. Clue for the other s on the top row?
hithere, ending of Lanka
thanks annie
2 more to go.
annie, still can't get the me5/14
lmj, think latin, bunch of doctors, 2 vowels at the end
annie, the latin clue worked, i've got fireworks
ty!
yw
lol! that was great fun to re-read that! : )
congrats, lmj
hey annie - i'm not listed either...we must be twins
well then, i am in good company, rennie!
babbler - we need to remind mama to read that story !
Anniebrook, I just looked for you in the rankings, and you are at 750
is that good, bad or soso?
OK I think
let's mail mamabear and tell her.
ok - going hime bbl....((((babbler)))) i buzzed mama!
exwren, i love your icon but in my case it is ce words
laters, ren (((ren))), get home safe.
hime...i mean...HOME...not HI ME!
later,ren
brb phone
yay! Fireworks. Thanks for all of the clues everyone!
Congratulations lmj643 on fireworks!Hooray for you
Congratulations hithere on your fireworks! Hooray!!
My icon was a special present from Jacula, I treasure it because it is a one-off
Anniebrook,I also noticed the other day I was not on the list in the archives. I wonder if this is something Dr. God can fix for us.I hope it does not happen alot.
I don't think there is enough room to print all of the names who complete the grid in the archives, I've never seen my name there, as long as I make the rankings.
I think that if you're not in the archives,then you're not in the rankings for that day either. Who knows!
So is everybody finished already!The log seems to be slow! I think I have seen snails move slower than the log!
Hey all! Long time no Babble!
Hello Jera! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
I am doing pretty well... had a nasty summer flu but it's almost over... just a bit of coughing still...
Jera,I think everyone else deserted me here or they are busy working on the grid! Did you finish the grid?
I have 16 left, so I can keep you company!
I need practice on my cluing skills so as me for clues!
Okay, will do when I get stuck
Okay... di5/14... & I assume the 6 is a plural?
di 5/14-10 cents with a consonant in the middle Jera
Di 6/24 is the plural of di 5/14 Jera.
Just remember to use the d at top of the grid, Jera.
Having trouble with the middle consonant... do you have a definition?
Got it, thanks!
I was going the wrong way
Dictionary says "a tenth:. Consonant is snake letter.
I was going the wrong way before too with the word.
popping in to say a quick hi!
Hello featherbee! How are you doing? Did you finish?
no, haven't been on all day. i'm at a friend's house. she's doing some stuff right now, said go ahead and use the computer
is today a quick easy one, or a small hard one?
The chat is very quiet. I think you're the 3rd person here in the log! I'm practicing my cluing skills w/Jera.
Featherbee, only 56 words today.You can finish fast!
hmm...
I could use clues for the i words
hey feather!
hi fran!
Hey feather..
krista! there you are!
and krista!
krista and i were playing scrabble just now.
dang! I lost my connection for a few seconds..was hoping you'd be here
Hello FranMag! How are you doing? Did you finish yet?
ohhhh!
was wondering what happened.
save me a game sunday or monday
i'm done min, finished before i went to bed last night
we're practicing so we can be a bigger challenge for you feather!
krista, do you want to start another game?
hee, sharpen those scrabble brains for me!
Sure! Are you having a good vacation so far? I"m sooo sorry Fran..
I'm game if you are (pun intended)
any clue for the middle i on the top row please?
of course krista!
we went to the mystic aquarium this morning, park in hte afternoon
just saw that on Rachael Ray last night!!
button, is4/5, beliefs
40.00 a day show..did u see the beluga whale?
yep, and the sea lion show, and tons of other stuff!
where are you feather?
then we drove around the harbor area for a bit
I need the first id and the second im
connecticut
I was there as a kid..it was a lot of fun
kwamama, like an it** of clothing, change first consonant
thanks Fran, got it....i am just 19 from finishing the grid and i have never finished one so I am excited.
second im is plural of the first im
thanks
goooo button!!!
thanks. shoulda tried that
np kwamama!
feather, did you do quote-puzzler?
nope, first time online today
only 4 words left -- and its still light out! this is the best I've ever done :
i went to consonant creek, Fran
nrk is back strong, she's in line for 4 stars today!
okay krista, i'll be right there
si 6/36?
later feather! see you in a few days.
good luck both of you!
wait fran..let's pick another lobby..messed this one up
enjoy yourself, Feather!
okay
conjunction junction?
sorry for this,everyone else..still trying to figure out how to do this
okay
any clue for the 2nd mi and the pi?
Whoo-hoo! *happy dance of doneness*
2nd mi is plural of the mi4/6
pi = vulgar for pee-ing
again I missed a plural! thx
since I'm so unvulgar I never thought of that ;)
Congratulations Jera on your fireworks!Good for you
di5/14?
It's the first one I've finished in about a month
Congratulations Fran on finishing the grid last night!
di5/14 = 10 cents with a snake in the middle
ty@
YAY Jera!
go feather go!
So glad you are online...
I have the de 5/18, de 6/30 and the de4/5 so what am I missing? There is still one more for the third row, fourth letter (D)?
Ooh stidmama love your icon!
hi stid!
thanks Jera-- I think it's an album cover from the 60s... couldn't resist the grin.
You are missing de4/8
i couldn't resist the teeny grid! my friend's here helping me
Feather, the second chapter is on BabAnon, and I was just about to transcribe the third, which I gave earlier.
okey, any clue for the de 4/8?
hi feather's friend! :-)
yea, I finished :)
de 4/8 is the first four leters of the 5/18
My husband was looking over my shoulder calling out words I'd already found *insert eyeroll here*
thanks for the help
YAY Kwamama!
oh cool! i'll read later though! (can't wait!)
LOL Jera! Tom does that sometimes, I remind him that he has his own logon!
Of course, he did find the me5/14 for me... that was helpful
oh no! did i miss story time? erh...hi everyone i'm back for a while
thanks stid, got it...
11 left!
okay, zipping off to transcribe (we have canned raspberry syrup-was supposed to be jam but didn't completely set- and eight jars of everyberry jam... only a batch of strawberry jam, proper raspberry jam and marionberry pie to do later tonight....)
okey, I have the un 6/27 and the un 7/40 what are the other two u in the bottom right corner?
hi lb! I think I started telling the story around 4:30 grid time? Not sure -- my day has been so disjointed (see previous post)
ooh berry stuff! i bought some raspberries today, my poor plants are just sticks!
me5/14?
un 5/14-something that has no leaderhis is un*** and un 5/12 is un plus to allow or permit Buttonman.
me 5/14 ends in two of the same vowels featherbee.
another name for corpman but with two vowels at the end
thanks min!
me5/14 is me + a consonant plus two vowels feather.
4!
Well, you guys have a great evening... time to tuck the kiddies in bed & I won't be far behind. Good night!
Go go featherbee.Go type those words that you see!
go feather!
night jera
night jera
Goodbye Jera!I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
we're done!
gonna go see stid's story
Congratulations featherbee on your fireworks! YAY!
whoo hoo feather!
Bye featherbee! I will see you tomorrow in the chat!
So does anybody else need clues or are we all finished
guess we're waiting on the changing of the guard Min.
Button, do you need anymore clues?Did you get your un words?I made a mistake when I clued them for you
lbdawger, we have to wait 4 1/2 more hrs! Oh what to do?!I'm usually racing to finish before the flip!Now it can't come soon enough! I guess I will play Scrabble
well, i was kinda hoping some late comers would come in
Since nobody seems to need clues I am out for now. I will be back for the flip later on!Happy babbling to all!
I'm a latecomer! Help!
bye Min
I have 8 left.
I am sure there will be late comers!I am usually a late comer! Oh wait maybe I'll stay to help out SainteEph!
How 'bout the S on the top row? I have the gentlemen, but need the next.
Hi SainteEph!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
SainteEph it's an anagram of word you already have.
Oh, that is a *ridiculous* word. Thanks!
You are welcome SainteEph! What else do you need?
fethent
Good evening all! I've got 2 words left, the un6 and 7... are they related to other words in the grid?
Sorry, that ridiculous word isn't in the grid SainteEph
Drat. Sorry. Need some of the Fs: I have women, spilling beans, and what looks like an abbreviation for leg irons.
un 6/27 is un + to steer a boat/ship.Un 7/40 is plural
I'm so silly - I had the 6, didn't even THINK to do the plural, duh! THANKS Mineryork!
Kaboooooom! Yeah!
Hi lmstudent!How are you doing? I'm here to help out!
Are you done lmstudent? Did you get your fireworks?
fe 4/8 is de plus double hump letter plus snake letter.
THanks Min...you got me the last two... anyone else need clues?
if anyone sees stid, tell her i read chapter one to my friend, who loved it! my voice got tired, so we'll read chapter two later. i did skim through it and saw my nephew was very nice to share the popcorn and blankets!
Thanks, Min. I think that's one of the Fs I have--women, right?
(i had to read to her, as she was far enough away from the screen to make it difficult)
fe 4/7 is fe plus double snake letter. Fe 4/7 is fe plus cross letter + snake letter,SainteEph. Does that help
off to play mancala, later!
my kids are playing that right now..weird
I think those are all the ones I have, but the stats say I have 4 more to go off that F tile.
Goodbye featherbee! I'll see you tomorrow in the log!
what is mancala?
Oh, duh. Only one more F.
Congratulations lmstudent on your fireworks!Hooray
wtg imstudent
I clued all the fe words for you.The fl4/8 is if you ran away from the cops you fl**, Sainte.Last F in the grid
Bah, finally got the last F, and it was despicably obvious. Thanks for the help, though, Minver!
Now on to the H words, which are probably just as obvious.
Congratulations SainteEph on your fireworks!Hooray
Oops! I jumped the gun! I thougnt you were finished!
Oops, not quite yet. Still straggling along with 6.
h's aren't too bad. not unusual words there
sorry, I got into a phone call with a birthday friend... back soon
finished in 45 minutes w/o clue help, I like these grids :o)
The only unfamiliar h word is the last word SainteEph.
Congratulations ronnielee on your fireworks!Hooray!
thanks min
Congratulations, ronnilee! That's some fast solving!
wow ronnielee! record speed!
I like these grids as well!But the only disadvantage is you finish early & then have to wait forever for flip!
it's not like being addicted or anything huh Min?
record speed for me when it usually takes me all day & up til the final 1 to 2 hours before the flip to finish
that's me with any of the grids over 150! that's usually the ones with the freakin' impossible words
I'm so addicted!I go through withdrawal as I wait for the flip! But I like having a chance to practice cluing.
i have started to print out licketys list & take to work to look at during breaks, now thats babble addiction :o)
Hi again, Babble friends. Are you getting storms in Carol Co.?
that was for ronnie
lol yeah, i'd say you're addicted ronnielee
Hi Krista
i've never been to the flip..too late for me..maybe tomorrow night
we just had one pass through krista, did u hear about the lightening strike in mt airy last nigh
Hello Krista! How are you doing? How was Scrabble?
hi all!
Who won,you or FranMag? You played FranMag right?
my son & i just left the carnival on our way home when it hit the ride
yep, she kicked my butt..didn't hear about that!! was anyone hurt??
wow ronnie! i bet you're glad you left!
Hello Fran!I was just asking Krista who won Scrabble?
i was just lucky, had good tiles.
2 carnival attendents & 3 carnivalgoers standing by the ride. It struck the supershot ride & spread out under the awning they were standing under
lbdawger! you went pro!
yeah, yeah...just admit you're good. :)
yeah, tuesday's payday so what the heck! lol
that's horrible, ronnie!
they have all left the hospital now but the storm came in so fast last night
yay lbd!!
Is it 2 players on Scrabble blast or a different game?
at least no one was killed!
Hi lbd! Congrats on the pro!
ronnie, i'm so glad you missed all that action!
yes, that was the plus
no, it's regular scrabble on atari..don't think you can do more than one player on blast..that would be fun, tho!
min, it's a game at AtariPlay, you can have up to 4 people. next time you should play with us.
they reopened the carnival tonight but not the ride until further investigation & prep of the ride takes place tomorrow
any help for di 6/24? please
there have been so many carnival injuries this year
I can't even keep up w/you all here,let alone Scrabble
yes, I came home & babbled did not find out until the 11pm breaking news event
be back in a bit, baby is up
Thank you for the invite Fran! Maybe if I get better!
also theme parks (Disney, BushGardens, EPCOT, .....
see ya..enjoy that baby
will be back later, son wants a bedtime snack
SeaDove, 10 cent coint with a curvy letter for the third letter and again at the end
I am going out to dinner now. I'll be back for the flip!
min, i'm terrible at it. It's all in fun. join us next time!
enjoy dinner Min see you tomorrow
see you , ronnie and min
ronnie, bring something back for us!
i think you are the first person I've seen from Montana here, lb
smaller is from MT too. she's just a but south of where I live
oh, ok..has it been stinking hot there, too?
that should read she's a bit south! lol
hot...HAWT! yuck, i hate heat
my butt is going south, too, lol!
used to live in arizona, and hated it there. couldn't move back north fast enough
i always thought I'd like to live there because of allergies, but I prob couldn't stand the heat, either
you'd still have allergies, believe me! mine got worse while down there
at least up here the night temps will drop down to the 50's AZ it might drop down to the 90's!
Hi all. How are you all doing?
where do you live in Mt lb? I have family in Helena and Missoula
It's pretty country, but I prefer the rolling plains and lake country here in MN
yes, prob not a good idea for us, then, lb
kids having a sleepover..need to go referee all the "fun." I have suuccchh a headaaaache
will print grid and find words while i yell :) :) :)
I was here earlier and only have 21 words left. Now that I'm back online, I can't see a darn thing again!
<mutters under her breath, "I must have scared everyone away">
Hi Nef, I live in the Flathead valley
nah i am just staring blankly at the grid...
look from the middle out. starting in a corner doesn't do a thing for finding words in the grid
that's beautiful country, Lb. I've stayed in Kalispell a couple of times
yes it is beautiful up here, but it's growing way too fast!
kids calmed down..sure it's only temporary..
LOL! I saw the story online about the farmers plotting out their land on the edge of Kalispell and the city commissoners concerns
sleepovers...you are a brave woman krista!
a lot of the farmers are selling off their land. like the rest of the country farming isn't making it. even the cherry orchards are hurting this year and we have a bumper crop!
i put it off all summer, believe me! It wouldn't be so bad, but my 5 year old son is trying to join in with the 10 year old girls who dont want him around!
phew...glad I could back online...my computer (or my connection) wigged out me....bleah!!!
How many kids for tonight Krista? My dtr once invited 25 "close and personal" girlfriends over when she was in 5th grade
poor little dude...just two girls, but it sounds like 25! Oh nef, now YOU are the brave one!
and you survived Nef?!?! glad you could make it back Eastern
hey Eastern Blue
phew!! glad I can see the grid again...my computer was going all wiggy on me!!
i'm available for clues if anyone needs them
okay, friend off phone, kicked Tom off my computer... :-) looks like I am not needed for cluing, though, so will go finish transcribing today's chapter.
don't mess with the Babble game...you can mess with anything else, but NOT the Babbling
I think thatI ruined some of the girls plans after the parents fell asleep that night. Little did some of them know that I was a night nurse at the time and I could stay up longer than they could! :D
stidmama - thanks for a wonderful chapter again...I think you should publish it once it's finished!! : )
Hello Stid, I have been meaning to go find the beginning of the story...
That's funny, Nef!
Nef! lol how much trouble could 5th graders get into?
can anyone help with the two te words?
Krista - it's out on the Bab Anon. site under General - Other Interests...Stidmama's story (I think)
I remember when i was in 5th grade...lots. ;)
oh, ok, cook
i mean cool!! LOL!
what a thermometer reads and plural
thinkng about food again, I guess
well, kinda plural, think latin
Some of the girls in that crowd could have gotten into a lot of trouble; my daughter only invited them because they were the *popular* crowd and she wanted to be part of them!
I'm stuffed...while the connection was down, I made quesadillas for dinner....
thanks!
yummy!
(that group was a bunch of slimey 2-faced little devils, I was glad that she decided she didn't like them after all)
geez it's been ages since i was in 5th grade...how old?
yum yum eb!!
yw Sillylily
*Passes quesadilla's around*
oooh quesadillas! yummm!
Nef - she sounds like a smart girl 8 )
that's one of the advantages of homeschooling, not that some of them aren't slimy and two-faced, too, tho
gracias!
5th grade = 10, 11 years old
erg! pre-teens. I of course was an angel, but i have two older sisters who were real Bi*****
loving the pocket protector ren. hi EB :)
hi mab!!!
my favorite school age is 7-9th graders. they are so much fun to laugh at!
hahahaha - thanks mab...nut dared me
me me me....
at that age they CAN BE mean and spiteful little witches; it all depends on the pack leaders
i have your icon on a t shirt mab!
my friend's daughter has an eating disorder now, thanks in large part to all the teasing for being 'fat', which she was not.
that' so true, puberty is such a drag. hormones raging and so the emotions are on overdrive
i'd love to see nut's version of psychodelia (sp).
where is that nut?
haven't seen nut today
nuuuuuuuu-uuuuut! nuuuuuuu-uuuuut?
Krista and Lb; I really think it starts at an earlier age these days; the kids keep thinking that they *have* to grow up so fast!
it doesn't help that the media pushes that idea too
I agree
and physical puberty is happening earlier, for sure
Good day all!!!!
I wouldn't want to go back to that age...I think kids feel so much pressure to 'grow up'
mamabear!!!!!
Hey MamaBear!
{{{{{{{{{MAMABEAR}}}}}}}}}}}}
hi mamabear :D
Hi mab and EB!!!! Rennie!!!
i heard on the news that kids aren't being allowed to be kids. parents and teachers are really pushing them to over achieve.
If I'm ever going to finish this grid; I better shut up and start guessing
i believe in encouraging kids to read over the summer, but to assign bookreports and math homework?! geez, let the kids be outside and play
i have like 31 left to find
and they are being pushed by No Child Left Behind, who came from u know who, but let's not get political...
rennie - I still have six...my connection went down earlier.... 8 (
that is so true. I have a friend whose 3 daughters were so programed to DO stuff all of the time that now that they are adults, they think something is wrong if things are quiet at home!
I am finished if anyone needs a clue!
eeerrrrgggghhhh! Krista! i wont go there.
i'll catch you all tomorrow, I hope! Have a great weekend. The kids need me.
hello folks *pushes glasses up nose*
hello nut!!

hi ping!
k....nut
could I get some help with the UN words? I've only found the un5/12 and haven't been able to see another one! :(
yay change!
good job COP!
going for a bit to get my preprandial vodka ;-)
I know it's a small grid, but anyone needs clues?
nef, another un5 is without a leader
if i were voting on icons, i would vote jilli's for best, and nut's for just plain scary.
I'm gonna go eat some pizza with the hubby! catch you later!
how do you get these animated icons?
un6 means to remove protective head gear
un + he 4/6 and plural
un7 is the plural of that
later chic!!
take care chic - keep me posted
Fran, you MUST pass the fish! I swear that wasn't there before!
bye chic!!!
lol nef!
we'll be waiting for you chic!
do you use the z in any words in this grid?
help with the PR's please...(got the one that means a sissy) thanks!
not one ping.
trouble with te5\14
no z
golly gee, thanks, mab *blushes*
thanks, bear
ping...only when we fall asleep at the key pad
Got 'em thx
east, i love your icon! did you make this one?
what light thru yonder window breaks...'tis a PR 'rainbow'
pr5/14= the thing that refracts light and makes a rainbow
what is the theme today?
dilly, te5/14 is te4/6 with a vowel at the end
psychedelic
ping...yup....
mamabear - psychedelia....
te5/14, latin plural of first te4/6 (not the same meaning, though!)
psychedelia
east- it's wonderful!
can someone please help with the me/6 and the di/6 - I'm so close to being done!
far out!
Ping, thanks 8 )
one me4/6 is a list of items at a restaurant
only mine is a pocket protector ' cuz nut dared me
di 6 is plural of di 5 - and there is no me 6
di6/24 is plural of the di5/14
oh, nver mind....... I'm so out of practice
another me4/6 is like a short note minus the O and made plural
ty Jilli and Fran
yw dilly!
ren, I'd call it a psychedelic pocket protector!
sorry - I needed the me/5 not me/4
lol jil!
yw 2, dilly!
I bet a psychadelic pocket protector isn't used to store pens, if you know what ahm sayin!
and ren, thry saying that 3 times quickly
me5 me + opposite of live, but drop the last vowel and double the one left
hahahaha...far out!
me5 one of them ends with two of the same vowel
*try
i can;t say it once!
me5/14= me + fourth letter + double vowel
groovy, baby
but how does one light a pen, mamabear? hmmm....
yo weally weally want me to twy?
franmag - thank you - thank you
maybe it's the "gel" in the pen.....
go rennie, go rennie, go, go, rennie!!!!
yw lbav!
yippee !!!!
oh, mama, you know all that cooky slang; you're one happenin' bear.
dilly, finished?
help with the IM's...?
purple gel running round my brain
Gadget - elflike, I think...
gadget, like a mischievous elf with an extra i at the end
im + math term for 3.141414141414141 (I think that's it)
Evening, all! Purple gel running round your brain? Gee, Renfield, I hope there's medication for that!
dilly is a one-finger typist so if she's finished she's probably dancing around....

yeah! Nef
yay nef!!!!!!! part deux
nothing to be sorry about, lbav!!!!!
congrats NEF!!!!
i'm going to see if i can find a psychedelic star of david - for shabbas
The band played In a Gadda Da Vida at my wedding - for like a half hour!
how about steppenwolf or amboy dukes, deep purple, vanilla fudge, donovan, cream, to name a few
it was an interesting time to live in and to be able to say, I'm still alive.
I apologize for interupting, but could I trouble ya
for a couple of clues?
Fran, I just needed to SLOW down and THINK! Your clue was okay, my thinking was wrong!
in the garden of eden baby....
sure jan
of course janiece!
whatcha need, janiece?
NOW I can chat!:D
LOL ren!!!!
ask away janiece
melms
I think the jefferson airlane's 1st album was definitively psychedelic...
Having some "d" trouble, de5,18 and de6,30.
good one lib
hey lib! with white rabbit?
city in holland
where vermeer lived
think of blue Janiece - in Holland
janie, take the de4/8 add the cross letter then plural
make blue and white plates
oh yeah white rabbit! Janice Joplin...what a wailer!
ty, chj! that's the one, fran :)
what a drunk gets + santa's helper in the middle
My favorite will always be the Beatles
Oh, lovely! Thanks so much. While we're on a roll, how 'bout di5,15 and di6,24?
If one is looking for psychedelic, be sure to check out Tangerine Dream. They are always good for that.
my fav will always be the clash
the beatles started it all with i think the revolver album
never really got into the beatles that much. Rollin Stones! who btw are going to be up in my neck of the woods in October!
clash were not psychedelic
janiece, add an s to the middle of the coin
clash were the beginning of punk
that's ok...the clash are still my fav
lucy in the sky w/ diamonds was pretty psychedelic of the beatles!
sorry -cannot be psychadelic with out the greatful dead
ahh Jerry! boo hoo
Saw Mick on the Superbowl half time show - was not very good.....
boa, Tangerine Dream was a fav of an ex, i like them too, but they will always remind me of him (which is not a bad thing actually)
lbav - I'm not really too young - did you click this icon?
Oh, thanks to you lovely folks, we only have 3 left.
I first heard Tangerine Dream in high school. Definately out there.
I'd love to hear the concert but i hate crowds, and they will be drunk on top of it! so, I'll stay as far away from that.
janiece, it that a royal "we" or is someone else playing with you? :-)
awesome icon, jilli!!!! *adjusting eyeballs*
HAHAHA
Greatful dead, Stevie Nicks and Jefferson Airplane, Iron Butterfly; I can't remember all of the ones who were my favorite psychadelic groups
Um...de 5/18?
No royalty here! My husband, who says his name for this is "kitty litter" is my cohort!
jilli - amazing - although i do feel very young now :)
relarion, think blue and white plates
duran duran anyone?? tee hee hee....
de 5/18 - think blue and white plates from Holland
relarion, type of blue and white china
lol janiece - kitty litter!!!!
OH! How could anyone forget Jimmy Hendrix!?
Thanks, got it!
*chuckle, lbav
there's a certain rock on block island RI that gets repainted every other day by the locals to commerate birthdays, anniversaries, deaths, etc.; well, the way i found about cherry garcia's death was i was riding around BI on my bike and i passed this rock and someone had painted Jerry Garcia RIP
it was a sad day for all the dead heads.
i have the distinction of having seen hendix, joplin and morrison within a year of their deaths
hmmm....cherry garcia....Ben & Jerry's ice cream....hmmmmm
before or after chj?
chj, were you a bad influence on them?
omg - duran duran - I do remember my very 'big" hair
wow chj, i'm impressed
Anyone remember Stevie Ray Vaughn?
....begins to wonder about chj & the mystery of the deceased musicians...
Well, when you live in a household with 8 cats, there's a whole lot of kitty litter around. He says that it's a better handle than he had before. He won't tell me what his old one was!
did you hear that the original kerouac On the Road is being published this month?
if fix is out there, i saw them all at brown u
did you hex them chj?
lol EB
i hope not
....hides the fact that EB is a musician....sorta....
speaking of handles, when we were travelling to dog shows (Gt Danes) and CB-ing, mine was "fairy dogmother"
jilli...hee hee hee!!!!
how cute jilli!
Good Morning Everyone!
It got lots of neery remarks from truckers
hi aleksia!

hi al3ksia
hi Aleksia! Jilli that's silly
hi aleksia - nice to meet you!
jilli - it was just oo clever for them!!
thank you
I love it!
i particularly loved the doors..when i was on my way to JFK in 1971 for my first trip to europe, we heard on the radio that jim morrison had died..when we got to paris at the end of two months we went to pere lachaise cemetary where he was buried but unfortunately his grave was unmarked for several years
Hi al3ksia!
oops...*too clever...
Jilli - Mind what you say about truckers. My Other Half's a trucker.
chj- I had a summer job as a nanny many years ago in your neck of the woods....
hi jac!
evenin' Jacula!

Kitty litter and I are now down to ONE! uh, help! is4,5. And it's probably one of those that's so simple that I'm gonna be embarrassed that I hada ask.

Hi Jac
speaking of truckers - truckin' got my chips cashed in
janiece, is4/5 is beliefs
Janeice & KL - the tail end of the rainbow glass...
Hi folks. Well, FranMag, re the icon, I was around in the 60s.
hi Jacs!!!
I remember Stevie Ray Vaughn
jac, did you scan of your t-shirts? :-)
anybody here go to woodstock
I have been to Pere LaChaise. Morrison fans have defaced a path to his grave, which is quite psychedelic
Thanks so much! Fireworks! Kitty litter says thanks, too!

Oh, chj....that was a groaner!
Love it!
we do chj, maybe she'll come on when you're here and you'll have your chance! :-)
nope, i thought you did. sorry
Re Woodstock - Since we lived in UK and I was only 12 at the time my parents wouldn't let me go! I still regret not being there!
I think I'll go get tomorrow's icon -- another Favourite Author
So other than mama and jac, how long have y'all been babblin?
Well, he played at Alpine Valley as a opening act for Eric Clapton and I was there for that concert. That night Stevie Ray was killed in a helicopter crash - was the foggiest night I have ever experienced.
thanks atropos! it was for janiece and she has it now too.
Me since May 06 - click this icon, haha
coolie =)
I could click everyone's icons but I'm lazy. It's easier for you to tell me.
my profile says since march, but i didn't really play a whole grid until May when the site got upgraded.
So where the Heck have you been, Smeltzie?????
so do i..i was working as a lifeguard that summer and couldnt get off..my best friend went and a friend of ours from Brown was in the film..followed by the camera for about two minutes after the big rainstorm
mama, how have you been without me?
You might get a kick out of this click, smeltz
lonely
poor mama
yeah - click on jilli's icon, Smeltzie!!!! You GOTTA!!!
chj - I may have told this story before. If I have, forgive me. Call me a forgetful old bat, if you like. (If you like violence, that is! LOL.) On another chat site there was me, Jean and Rick on one thread most nights. Rick would just love saying 'Hi Jac!' and 'Hy Jean!' One night, w decided to say 'Hey Rick!' That soon shut him up.
it's Mind-blowing, Man! ;)
the cuzzi has cobwebs and rust
omg!! i have 3 words left and i am really struggling!!

EB - I'm finding the chatlog is moving really fast now. It was slow in the UK morning for adding words though.
(MG, your name reminds me of a favorite musical group from the early 60's -- BookerT and the MGs. Anyone remember them?
Is there an age minimum for you to use medicinal marijuana in Canada?
and a hippie too, lbav??? (it rhymes)
i wanna be rich, skinny and 29!
lbav - Please post your family tree! LOL.
I remember them, Nef!!!
I'm Irish German and a little bit of sexy.
Smeltzie...when is your little one due?? or has it been long enough you HAVE the little one now??
I think it is 3, Smeltzie
i dont know which ones but i do need 2 d words from the d at the top and i need 1 m word from the right hand side pls?
Gee, we're boring. We're just a couple of hill billy Hoosier hics!
i'm white ,but my first name is known in most circles as an african american name - sends most for a loop on job interviews
I'm English/Welsh with some French thrown in somewhere.
name a song....I could probably sing all the words & still not know the group!!
mg, you probably need di5/14 and 6/24, add an S to the middle of the coin (di4/6) and then plural
MG, you have the 10 cent coin?
Our little girl is due October 3rdish. If you get bored you can see those new 3D ultrasounds on our site.
http://thesmeltzers.blogspot.com/
MG 12, have you been to Lickety's site yet? It's listed down at the bottom on the left. It helps you find the words you miss
a Smeltzpuppy!!!!!!!
woof
one more dead rock star story...i was on the met opera standing room line which forms at 5 am every saturday..i had an hour or two to kill so i thought id read the times in the park (central that is) but it was still dark so i sat on a bench at 73rd and cpw..i looked at the front page and learned that george harrison had died ....and realized that i was 1/2 block from strawberry fields..so i went in and there were about a hundred fans hanging out
EB - you should come on some of our music sites. The link the titles make you think quickly re bands, titles and lyrics.
MG, M from the right is probably the one with double vowel on the end...me5/14
Smeltz, are you sure it's just one, or maybe you're having a litter?
chj - GH was a relation of mine.
stoopid connection....blech!
chj, i'm glad i'm not famous. i think i'd be afraid to have you come near me!
We are only having one but we don't have a name yet...any suggestions?

GH???
Janiece is nice.......
MamaB - I though you already knew this?

smeltzie, maybe name her after a grandmother
OMG!!!!!! CUZZI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
i lived on east 81st..about a mile from where john lennon was shot
MG, i think the top D has the name of a coin with a snake letter in the middle and its' plural, what the faucet does to keep you up all night, and a term used that refers to putting someone down verbally
Fill it with........... champagne!!!!! In honor of your return
i gave clues for those below also mg, at 9:39
smetlz - champagne -of course!
grandmother's names are Atha and Lola
champers!

I'm sorr MG12 for taking up this valuable space to chat instead of working diligently on the puzzle...I have 56 to go!
*runs full throttle and CANNONBALL into cuzzi* Ahhhhh I've missed this......
Jewish...nope but I am a Christian youth director (read: not youth pastor)
Just tried some anagrams to find a name combining Atha & Lola. Not much luck... came up with 'Aha! A toll.' and 'Loath Alla'.:(
There was an ancient radio show where a hoity-toity person said "My pool party was absolutely ruined!" "Why?" asked the straight man. "Have you ever tried swimming in flat champagne?"
*gets champers up nose*

Wow, there i go thinking again. I tried putting it in like four times arguing with the add word that yes, indeed it is a word... but in the end add word won and I'm delt-less.
Re the baby name...How about 'Althea'? It takes the first 'A' from Jeanne, the 'L' from Lois, the 'H' from Atha, the 'E' from Jeanne, and the 'A' from Lola.
*hiccup* No idea what ya mean Smeltzie...

Babblers sit back to let Wolfie take a full and relaxing swig.
We are all doing great, Smeltz

Woulfie - Mr & Mrs Dog are trying to think of a name for their upcoming baby girl... (due Oct.)
Wolfie - sad news on thr Babblelog in that a baby a month from being born was lost and Jai's Dad has also died.
But good news re Mr & Mrs Dog.

Sweet deal, Smeltz --- so how fancy or simple do you want the name to be?
me4/6 - to mel4.5 together, as of metals.
me 4 - think drug lab
Teagan means - Beautiful, attractive
A bit like 'smelt'.
*sneak sneak* {{{{WOULF}}}}

*OUR* story, Jacula, and three parts are now up. :-)

Bugger! Can't type tonight.
id 4/5 when your car id**s too slow the motor dies
ooh..stid mama's here? storytime?
Cathy -- you jiggle like jello!
what do you need, Cathyar?
id4/5 - if you sit around and do nothing all day, you might be decribed as id4/5.
did storytime earlier, Cathy, sorry. :-( I wish everyone could be on when I tell...
Cath - I love your 'moons'
a good girls name? Hmmmm.... let me think....
hmph! You might as well clued that one as "resembling stidmama" Jacula! LOL
lol...sorry...just my icon ...wish it would animate... dr. god must have turned off animations due to space perhaps?
thanks Nef....i have never finished a grid as I am new at this and tonight I just need 6 more words.
Stidmama - me, too, in this hot weather!
lol east
ooo...Buttonman - we'll help!
There is always Veronica
assicons?
You can do it, Buttonman!!! What do you need?
just ask Button; I'm trying to help as I've finished and am just watching all the hijinks!
the Devil's workshop...
Cath - yeah...too funny!!
Though, in my defence, I must just say that when things cooled down last night I became an ironing turbo machine! Got half of the huge, teetering pile done.
I need im 4/6 and im 5/14 please anyone...clues!
weird really...should soon replace them with something more "sensible"
hi Douglas...
Hey Douglas, how's things?
Hello EasternBlue...
(_|_)
brb
Enjoying the weather Douglas? I thought I was going to melt today!
button, im4/6 is a band of zulu warriors, im + 3.14 (math term)
im + first 2 letters of apple *** or cherry *** or blueberry ***
oops-- was playing... :-0
smetlz - one last name before I sign off. A name of beautiful baby born after her father was gone from 9/11 - Phaelan- prounounced fa-lan
im5/14 is plural of that im4/6
Button - im4 & plural 5 is a gang of Kaffir warriors. It's a South African word.
Sounds like naughty elves.
I once knew a girl named Fanchea
Thanks Ibav...funny Jax
to my ex b/f....( x )
hi douglas and cathy.
we need munchies
GN Ibav
Hello FranMag
ren - you got any cheetos?
A nice Greek name is Antigone (pronounced Antigonee).
You were supposed to bring them mama!
*passes around chocolate chip cookies*
good night all
*kettle chips*
Is it me, or is this one of the nastier grids?
Clio is one of the Greek muses...
*offers cherry pie*
'Bye to all who are leaving.x
not too bad, GW - I did it in about an hour at work!!
I have fresh oatmeal raisin cookies to share :)
Thanks EB for the cookies. They were delectalicious!
hey stid!
te 4/6 and te 5/14?
Cherry Pie??? Jac perks up.
I was, Smeltzie? *checks email for cuzzi party assignments*
it's a tough one, Grey. Someone told me to work from the inside out and you'll find more words that way
i'll have some wolfie! i wasn't here for them yesterday!
*passes around chocolate chip cookies*
nite all...been a too long week n this cat's tired
*kettle chips*
Grid only took me about half an hour today. Too many short ones lately.
And then that big one in the middle.
stooopid connection....aaaaAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!
button, te4/6 is short for how hot or cold something is
te 4 is for short term workers, they are te((s
short ones are good - can't do the long ones.... love the quickies!
te5/14 just adds another vowel on the end, sounds like a city in Arizona.
te5, just add a vowel to the te 4
almost 12:30 a.m.....tired...frustrated and confused about love so...rather than bother anyone..i'm off to bed.
They came out really good, Fran -- Kirsten (who suggests her name or any of its variants, btw) was trying for chewy but they came out as perfect tea time cookies -- crispy til you dunk them :)
mmmm, i love crispy cookies!
Aww, {{Cathy }}
night cathy!
ahhh..... sweet dreamzzzz, Cathyar!
I
I
{{{{{Cathyar}}}}}}}
sweet zzzzzzzzz's cath...
I'll bring the crumpets!
bye bye
Smeltzie ....you at a loss for words?
I think Smeltzie is choking *grabs Smeltzie and starts to remove his Heimlick*
sorry to hear about your frustration, Cath -- {*HUG*}
stuttering Smeltz?
sorry nef
I need two words to finish the grid for the first time..I ned the me 4/6, the last two of the 4!
How about some cinnamon scones>
ummm...give me my Heimlick back
Cathyar - may stars dance across your dreams tonight....
BH! I only nipped upstairs for a moment and the chatlog almost rode off the page.
me4/6-- 3 letter palindrome, plural
button, one is short for a drug, me**amphetamines
one me is my daughters room; the other is aan illegal drug
me 4/6 - what you order from in a restaurant and a type of drug
Button - if you have kids, you might tell them to clean their room b/c it's a me __
the other is a list of things available at a restaurant
Btw, I had a great suprise when I deposited my paycheck today...
*hands Smeltzie his Heimlick*
I didn't know what BH meant until I saw your flag.
fireworks!
LOL! Poor Buttons! He asks for help and is given clues from everyone and none match! :D
YEAH BUTTONMAN!!!!!!!!!!!
Nef - not just your daughter's room! Mine daughter's must be a prize winner, if there are stakes for daughterly bedroom messiness.
YAY Buttionman!
BH? Whose flag?
what happened, GW?
yay buttonman!!!!!
I finally got my tax refund -- I had forgotten that I told them to direct deposit it to my checking account
Buttonman... I have a cuzzi ready. What would you like?
Drinks on GW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cuzzi?...I meant sippy.
money you forgot about, that's the best kind!
I have a daughter and a son (the son being the elder). I also have a sort of step-daughter. I truly believe that girls are messier than boys.
Water?
Tea?
Juice?
I had some issues due to my daughter having a hyphenated last name so I ended up filing late and they deposited it before I have received my notification yet
Kool Aid?
Blue Koolaid, Smeltz
Milk?
Thanks everyone....I really appreciate your help and could not have done it without you!
Champers?
How about some sangria, Smeltz?
y/w Buttonman.
no problem buttonman!
here you go Nef!
and to GW...here
anytime, buttonman!!!! (why do I hear elton john singing rocket man everytime I type that name?)
What can I get you Buttman?
the chat log here is always so positive and helpful; I think that is one of the reasons I hang around for a while after I finish a grid
Sangria? How about Raki (Greek home-brewed fire water/drain cleaner, depending on your tastebuds)?
Sorry again...I meant Buttonman.
rocketman mama
Congratulations Buttonman on fireworks!Good for U!
woo hoo Button!!!
Thanks, Smeltz; you make good Koolaid!
Smeltzie - Leila??
hooray, button!
in the mood for sweet and smooth, Jac -- and my friend makes some FABULOUS sangria
*sings *..rocketman...burnin' down the shorts of man alone ... *
Smeltz - you're doing it on purpose. Dog... butt.... LOL!
two cups of sugar...and then a little more.
Only kidding!
Cathyar - you know full well you misheard that. LOL though!
Any merlot on the shelf, Smeltzie?
Jacq sings her own misheard lyric... 'Muck of Kintyre, mince rolling in from the sea....'
Jac - you caused an actual burst of laughter. Well done!
hey again! got called away to make re-wiring decisions - ugh, i hate this!!!
wondered where you'd gone helen!
there's a bathroom on the right...
I have Red Truck... It's a mix of 4 varieties including Merlot. It's wonderful
Smelz - I just smiled for real.
goodnight all!
hit me!
good night Button
Night Buttonman....
night buttonman!
night night, buttonman!
Have a good one Mr. Buttonman!
k...seriously now...had a snak n took out bad vibes on the ex tonite.. exhausted from effort of getting a man to be sensible... let alone being sensible myself.... *over-exhaustions sets in so she goes to bed with no more g'nite tho she loves all her babble friends....for always!*
that's a good one lib! CCR
Button, button, who
just wave Smeltzie - it's safer
oops
Who wanted Merlot? There's some in the wine rack, I think. Not a fan of red myself.
who's got the button?
Cath ... see ya!
Other Half likes it though.
G'night, buttonman -- and YAYYY!
2 to go
a lot of people thought that, fran
goooo helen!
need help Helen?
that and 'scuse me while i kiss this guy...
Fare well, Cath!!
man + sensible = oxymoron (present company excluded)
i know, it's one a website of misheard lyrics i came across once.
no nef - i seems i just need to put esses on words - i'm such an idiot!
oh, good idea for a website!
Mamabear's singing an old Ian Dury & The Blockheads hit, I think...?
that one too, people submitted so many misheard lyrics they had to stop accepting them.
Goodbye Buttonman! I'll see you tomorrow in the log!
I am?
FIREWORDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yay helen!!!!!
my mom thought ferry cross the mersey was very customary...
Goodbye Cathyar! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
Yay Helen!
Congratulations helenkeller on your fireworks! YAY!
And with that; I'm off tobed (I think)
well kids...I'm beat....nightie night all!!! {{{{{{HUGS}}}}} all around....
catch ya all later!
woo hoo helen!!!
hooray, heln!
hi east - bye east
bye helen!
helen!
night EB!!
G'night EB and Nef {*Hugs*}
lib - your icon is freaky weird, lol
So Grey, what is button button who's got the button?
night nef!
FranMag - a good friend of mine has a lot of stuff on that website. A real life friend, I mean. We also write song parodies both separately and together. But, when we're together and there's music around, we sure need a notebook!
Nite EB and Nef!!!
hi all
ok - i'm outta here, see ya at the flip :)
nite nite helen!
hi nrkii
hi, nrkii!
hi nrk!
toodles, helen Hi, nrkii!
Goodbye helenkeller!I will see you later on at the flip!
Night EB, Nef, Helen. Hi nrkii!
Goodbye EasternBlue!I'll see you tomorrow in the log!
that's great jac! i had a friend that i used to sing with also, she got me to sing in front of an audience for the first time also.
I'm just starting the grid... is it a GOOD 56 words, or a BAD 56 words?
Goodbye NEf! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
half and half, nrkii
nrk, you should blow through them, only a couple weirdos.
Goodnight EB and nef
FranMag - we write in public and sing in private. LOL. It's probably best that way.
it is hard to say, nrkii -- I think it is fairly tricksy today, but I am distracted by the log as well
jac, you threatened to send me file of you singing, i thought you were serious!!
No, actually, we have to sing to make sure the phrasing and timing is right. Mind you, after all these years, we don't often get it wrong on spec.
Hello nrkii! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
FranMag - I may yet do that. LOL.
good, thanks min
i used to love listening to song parodies on Dr. Demento. i wonder if he's still on the radio?
glad the grids yesterday and today were small -- been busy catching up with blog so not getting to them till late
nrk, i see you're back in the swing with quote-puzzler though! 4 stars today maybe?
Last thinh we wer at was an ABBA tribute band on a 70s night.... The notebook nearly ran out of pages.. what, with the wonderfully bendable lyrics plus kids all learning the Crazy Frog dance... we wer in parodyists' heaven.
good day on there today fran! also I see a lot more babblers have tested the waters there
It looks easy.
btw, nrkii -- thanks for bringing quote puzzler to our attention -- I have been enjoying it a lot
there's got to be at least 20 babblers there now!
woulf, are you there as yourself, or did you change your name?
you do well too wolfie! you should subscribe.
fran, and I notice that the top scorers are more often babblers than not!
i noticed that too nrk, makes sense with all the weird words we're exposed to! :-)
I was able to be there as myself, nrkii -- though I don't always get that lucky -- apparently there is at least one other person on the net who uses my alternate spelling of wolf :)
angb has started babbling now, she was on last night.
Re quotepuzzler. I've been in through your link, FranMag, and it won't accept either of my uk e-mail addresses as 'properly formatted' e-mail addresses. But, whe I tried my MSn address again, with your link, it told me my address and user name were already in the system. Nothing's come through yet, though!
oh, so we're having crossover fran?
I am seriously considering it, Fran -- with my cash influx I just may
jacula, i would email douglas, his address is on the contact page.
yes nrk, she (he?) specifically said you mentioned babble
di5?
FranMag - Douglas is the site boss?
yes jac.
I will do that later, if so
???
what is quotepuzzler? (see,GW - I told you I would forget!)
wolf, add an S in the middle of the coin
di 5/14-10 cents plus a consonant in the middle Grey.
not our douglas, another one!
thanks
different douglas than our douglas here though
mamabear, it's a puzzle site that nrk introduced us to.
Wolfie - di 5 sound like a teenager's version os 'ignore me!' without the last 'S'.
www.quote-puzzler.com
will go check it out.....
quote puzzler is funnnnn
Are any of you paid members of quotepuzzler?
It's true meaning is a 10th part, or a tithe. Which I could not have clued had it occurred in yesterday's puzzle, since tithe was A Word. LOL.
hello...3 to go and quite stuck! Please help with the first me!
which game in there do you play? there are so many
i am smeltz, so is nrk
mama, all of them
mamabear, I play all 7 that are behind the "quote puzzler" link -- they take only a couple minutes each
ok - brb
If you get me your referal code, I can get you two free months.
Hello babblinanm! How are you? Welcome to the grid!
Have any of you started on the treasure hunt site?
me5/14 is the plural of your middle finger.m Think of a short word for an ocean, the Me* and than add to personal pronoun vowels.
here's mine smeltz: ECX8X1
Thank you Minver!
me 5/14 is me plus consonant plus two of third vowel.
woulf, i started, but there were too many words! lol
mine is MU0F42
btw, Sorry I didn't have anyones code to enter when I signed up or I surely would have
gw, I tried the treasure hunt, and it nearly killed me
There you go Fran
I got about 3/4 of the answers right, but could not get the rest
sorry I disappeared, was finishing the next
{{{NRKII}}} yippee!
don't worry about it woulf, it's just nice to have more people there.
was finishing the next entry in my trip blog...
{stidmama!} :)
thanks smeltz!
I just wish it would allow me to sign up! I think it is prejudiced against UK e-mail addresses.
I took a brief look at the treasure hunt -- it looks interesting but I don't have the mental capacity these days to give it the attention it deserves
stid, me too! I have day 1 and day 2 done... 3 days to go... plus I posted a poem today, first time posting my own poetry
except that the more people on quote-puzzler the fewer my chances of winning the games!
i think if you email douglas he can fix that jac.
same here woulf!
Jacula, I'm sure Douglas will help you
stid, yeah, I wish I had thought of that before I told you all about it, LOL!!!
And I'm still peed off with webBoggle. They MUST use cheat programmes on there. It is not physically possible to type that fast. And I'm a fast typist.
Guess what? After all this time,I just discovered how to look at people's profiles! I accidently clicked on a person & a profile came up. I just went through and read everyone's profile in the chat log.They're funny!
wowser, nothing for you real vets, but i am up to 100,000
Oh drat! I guess that means you know how old I am now, Min?
LOL
you learn something new everyday, Min :D
but...since the stars go to top 10%, the more people that play the easier it is to get stars for 2nd, 3rd or 4th place finishes.
oooh! Tom just loaded a Star Trek spoof (he won't tell me what it is) so I am going to be completely distracted... see you-all tomorrow!
Min, yes all sorts of cool things in profiles...
it looks confusing
see you stid!
okay stid! see you tomorrow.
take care stid!!
Goodbye stidmama!I will see you tomorrow in the log!
Hi StidMama. Ok, you talked me onto this site.
mama, i found that reading the instructions clears things up a lot! :-)
Now I can check to see who is female and how is male
Ok...whew! Thanks Jac and Minver for the clues!
mama, definitely read the directions on each one... very easy to assume and end up with low scores the first few times
Two to go!! I've heard talk of fireworks...hope to see em!!
FranMag - I'll mail Douglas later then.
and on an off day it is even easier to get a low score from silly errors, LOL
Which 2, babblinanm?
woulf, yes, like clicking on the check answer on the quote instead of moving the rest of the letters up
Wolfie -sure is! I was 15 on the rankings when I went away on hol for a fortnight. I was still there when I came home. I'm 17 at last look though!
the last he and the first id are the final two Jac
haven't done that yet, nrkii -- but came close the other day
my mouse was dirty last night and i couldn't do cross phrase quickly enough!
babblin, id is it** of clothing, change first consonant
babbleinam - I finished the grid hours ago. I was clueing you in. But thank you anyway.
9 to go, but time to tuck in a sleepy wife -- back in a few to finish
he4/5 is the last he, rhymes with what you pay the landlord
I was askin' for clues Jac!! :)
Oh! Right!
babblin, 11:04 and 11:05 are your clues
id4/6 - no carbon required paper. Used for forms.
ummm.. riemann? are you in South Dakota?
maybe it's too late..... the instructions are not helping.... about as foggy in my head as London on a rainy day
Mama - what instructions?
try it when you aren't so tired mama.
I agree...it seems challenging
on the quote puzzler site
jac, she went to try quote-puzzler
I haven't seen any stone carvings of Presidents lately, but I do like algebra, geometry and OLD friends. *grin*
yes smeltz, they are short and challenging and work your brain!
*singing* A foggy day in London Town had me low and had me down. I viewed the morning with alarm the British Museum had lost its charm. How long, I wondered, Could this thing last? But the Age of Miracles hadn't passed -- for suddently I saw you there And through foggy London Town the sun was shining --- everywhere!
I try to do them before babble -- good way to start day with a brain stretch
FranMag - ah! Well, I wouldn't know! It won't even let me try it! GRRR. Will get hold of that Douglas person you mentioned later.
Ok!!! Fabulous...thank you all for your assistance! I've just been entering all the words in lickety's page though...guess I have to enter on the babble page if I want to see the fireworks eh??
brb, have to start dinner
OLD is relative, professor! LOL so what do you think? OF course you get to start with a small, relatively easy grid!
folks, meet our dear friend of over 20 years -- riemann (though why he chose this name, I do not know).
babblinanm - you mos certainly do!
yes babblinanm!
welcome riemann!
welcome, riemann!!!!!
brb
transferring data now!!
Though it is really unusual for him to be awake this late!
Thanks, people. 'Tis not as easy as it looks, but I seem to be making progress.
welcom riemann!!!
I don't even see him in the chatlog.
we're here to help, riemann!
Sorry riemann!
Ah! Gotcha at last! Hello.
Good e'en, Jac
5.11 am here in UK. So, it's early here!
we have good sailing words tonight, which I am grateful for
morning all.
funny, I always interpret those babblets as being armorial in nature!
Or even late, in my case, since I've not been to bed yet.
Hello Oggy! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
morning, oggy! it finally cooled down on our side of the world, how goes it for you?
Stidmama,sorry I interrupted your great story today
First word I found on today's grid was pi4/5.:(
Someone just hit me with the sleepy fish - will tackle that puzzle quote thing another day - nite all!
its still warm here, a bit too warm.
Min -- that is all part of the joys of public performances. Really! I never mind when there's a bit of a distraction. Gives me time to think of the next line... :-)
hello again Welcome riemann -- always nice to meet a friend of a friend :) Hi oggy!
done!
Mama - ZOOOOONKK!xxxxxxxx
After I hit you with the fish...I hit myself. B-Bye
Well done, nrkii!
I know I'm an amateur, but fireworks for the first time with no clues...just lickety. YEA!
G'night mama and Smeltz
thx, Grey.
Smeltz -- will you be back soon?
Stidmama, have ever thought about writing a book?
Congrats, SeaDove!!
You are such an excellent and enthralling storyteller!
yay seadove!!!!!
okay, a quick note on my sailing trip -- we had a wedding on board the first night out!
Congratulations SeaDove on your fireworks! Hooray!
YAY seadove!
Seadove? I must have missed that one. Sorry seadove.
good night MAMABEAR!
whomever you are.
way to go seadove!!!
see you later smeltz!
I hope to be back very soon. I had fun tonight. Didn't find one word but I don't care.
thanks. I feel so silly being so happy. but these puzzles are filled with words I've never heard of.
WEDDING? who to whom?
or is it whom to who? *mumble grammar mumble*
Good Babble name though, considering all the seabirds we find in here.
Goodbye Smeltzdog!I will see you tomorrow in the log
StidMama - SHUT UP!
wedding was JJ and John, who were a slightly older couple (grown children) and it was lovely and sweet
Then you are doing it right, Smeltz -- you haven't lost the knack!! But please, don't stay away so long again.... I was really beginning to miss you
nrkii..or should i say wonder woman..you look good in cuffs
That who or whom argument will never be finalised, I reckon. xxx
ummm, that's linda carter that looks good in cuffs, LOL
??? Jacula??? *grin*
ah..i thought it was you..damn
and its lynda i think
I think they should just do away w/whom! Whoever really says it anymore? Sounds way too proper to me.
I'm still on yesterday's icon... been too busy to take care of iconage... yep, it's Lynda, you're right
awasn't beig nasty Stid!
hey there, I use whom!
shes pretty psychedelic
well, I am going to go back to watching this Star Trek, which turns out to NOT be a spoof, but a serious continuation of the original series by highly motivated amateurs... "New Voyages" it's at startreknewvoyages.com
I do too nrkiii because I like to speak proper Englsih!
Thing is, you can't see people's expressions r body language on line (without a web cam)....
And she can still fit into her costume, chj
SeaDove, don't feel silly-- you should be happy finishing a babble grid, otherwise, why do it at all (besides our wonderful company, of course)?
{{Jac}} I know -- it's just funny how we interact sometimes... good night all!
Good night, Stid. Looking forward to watching that episode in a couple weeks myself.
JAC, :-P
i didnt know people in yonkers spoke english
nite stid.
(just wanted to share an expression with you)
I mean, I got all upset by something Hetty said on Thursday. I was banging about the kitchen until Paul asked me, 'What's up?'. I thought she'd got short with me on here, re me not remembering a past cvonversation.
dont they speak new yawkese
They have been discussing a Wonder Woman movie and they actually were considering asking her to try to reprise the role, but she quickly pointed out that she is too old for the part-- but they will most likely cast her in the role of Hippolyta -- WW's mother
cool, good ww trivia that I needed (moving other info out to make room for that)
G'nite stid
It happens. She didn't have much time and had to go. May well have got exasperated with me for a moment... but didn't mean it that way. etc., etc.
so hollywood
like peck and mitchum in de niro's cape fear
(first info to go ... traffic rules from California, as have not lived there for 6 years)
I actually didn't see that, chj -- but I like when they have original actors have cameos in new versions of films
Ok, I've entered all my words...where be the works of fire??
okay, must go... have a great night everyone!
nrkii..youre like kelly bundy..everytime you learn a new fact, you lose something else you knew
It lends a feeling of the torch being passed on when it is done well
nrkii... kelly bundy... nrkii... kelly bundy... gee, thanks :)
so long, nrkii -- have a great night yourself!!

Congratulations babblinanm on finishing the grid!YAY
YAYYYYYY for babblinanm!!!
Thank you Minver! First time finisher...guess I'll have to go pro soon!
yay babblin!!!!
Me too babblinanm.I want to get these infamous FWs
no pressure, babblinanm -- though it is fun to be pro -- we will love you just the same if you don't {*hug*}
hello again! Not many people speak proper English anywhere any more, IMHO
min..im one of those lucky people who grew up on LI and dont have a LI accent
I really can't understand why NY is not known for its English speakers, since so many ex-pats r4eside there.
it does not cost a lot to go pro.
That's wonderful to know Grey! ty!!
I just discovered profiles tonight. I think it would be fun to do my own profile. I would try to make it funny
and on that note..... Fireworks! :D
hi jilli!! that's for sure.
yay wolfie!!!!
WELL DONE, WOLFIE.
chj - I spent teen years in Queens and sitll have old friends from there who speak very standard, unaccented American, like Californians
No, not alot. Have never purchased anything on line before...a bit nervous about that I guess.
reminds of the great great lyric from my fair lady...why cant the english learn to speak..written by a new yorker btw
im off to work see u all later. bye
bye oggy! see you later!
TRUE, UNFORTUNATELY, CHJ.
Thanks again for the clues...and the honorary fireworks! Am off to much needed sleep. Good night everyone.
babblin -- pro membership was my first non ebay online purchase -- it went so well that once I got my mom hooked on babble I bought her her pro status for mother's day
jac, you're yelling again!
I am a stickler for proper English. Not even so much proper English, but just correct grammar. I have to sit bite my tongue not to correct people whenever I hear them speak wrong. I used to correct people all the time and I irritated a lot of my friends doind that
'Bye Oggy. Have a not too crap day!
night babblin!
you mean wrongly
Nighty
g'nite babblin so long, oggy -- have a great day

Hi saphyre! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
Love My Fair Lady and have a claim to family fame there. My grandfather (eventually Professor of Linguistics at Columbia in NY) was a pioneer in phonetics and taught all his 10 kids his methods. One son was the technical advisor to the movie *Pygmalion" on which MFL was based. He supplied all the speech exercises which GBSahw didn't, such as "The Rain in Spain..." etc
hi, saph!

Hello balletslippers!How are you? Welcome to the flip!
i ahte to admit that i grew up a yankee fan
how goes it in babble today?
i'm great minver... how about you?
WHAT???? i didn't see that
My husband's father lives in Westbury. Go there too.
I grew up down the street fron The house that Ruth built
but then when the mets were formed in 62 i also rooted for them
169th and the Grand concourse
last two di?...di5 and di6? hints?
my family is all from brookly - all dodger fans til they left - and then the mets came - and the rest was history
my dad worked on jerome ave most of his life
after 69 and 73 and when steinbrenner bought the yankees, i grew to hate the yankees..especially billy martin
If you WEREN'T a Yankee fan you got beat up!
add an s to the coin fig
I live about 15 min. from Yankee Stadium, but I don't go to many games. My husband LOVES the Yankees!
