How was Spangle when you got home? Did she go loopy?
Hey Haz, wb :)
The girls said she had been quite unsettled while we were away. She didn't go too daft, just lots of whimpering as if to say 'Why did you leave me?' But she's fine.
Good morning sprite - are you well?
Maybe Spangle missed her Babble time!!
hello how was you holiday rolin
Not too bad, still free from work. Will start again at Monday... see how it goes. Did you have a good time?

Talking of French don't forget the French for rabbit is in the grid.

Hey sylvia :)

Doing very poorly on the grid, but otherwise okay. And you?
Yeah! Thanks FMitch, I was incredibly slow, but found it in the end!
i'm good. couldn't wait to get home to do poorly, myself.
lol
glad you found it as my clue was a bit of a mess.
Not, it was not, it was exactly right. It's my brain that is a mess.
Part of me seems to go braindead the moment my eye catches a K in the grid.
There is a little ik4 babblet which we haven't had for ages - method of printing fabric
hi all!
Wow FMitch, you remembered. I had forgotten about that one a long time ago.
Hello FranMag!

Well, thanks for that, FMitch! ;) Now I have that ik4, thanks to you.

I don't, but I will try to remember it now. I think my knowledge ends with batik :)
Thanks FranMag. We had a great time.
Enable doesn't know an alpino!
isn't that albino?
The french thingy for on the head?
what a chapeau? ;-)
lol Hi seano
"french thingy",...i love it when ya get technical..lol
Just looked up my French dictionary. It doesn't know alpino either.
i'm having a tough time.. is this even a bit tougher than usual or am i just unfit to play? ;p
LOL! The almost formless thingy with the little button on top. Argh! Is it that dutch!
ooookay... gotta do some school prep..be back later ppl...
a beret?
I don't know, sylvia. I have 85 words, 58 to go, which has a nice kind of symmetry. But I went stupid as soon as I saw the K-grid.
It's double dutch! Little formless thingy....
er, i only have 4 ks. though i just started so maybe im just not in the groove yet.
Alpino: http://img167.imageshack.us/im g167/3576/alpinooh0.jpg
So, if you wear an alpino, you have put a feather in your cap?
Lol!
At least google doesn't think I made the word up!
haha!
Anyway, much as I would like to stay, I have to go - a meeting to do with RDA. I'll be back later!

oh man!

Great site, mrP!

I miss all the fun!
I like this one: Allow me to introduce my selves. Or: You say I'm a b*tch like it's a bad thing.
LOL! I love it Who are these children, and why do they keep calling me Mom?
can you all see my soap bubbles?
Hihihi... or: I don't have a license to kill. I have a learner's permit. I'll take that to work with me!
Oh mrP, I have got that one on my fridge!
Yes lovely bubbles Fran
After refresh, I can, Fran. Nice one!
great, i'm using dial-up right now and it's not loading for me
What if the hokey pokey is really what it's all about? hehehe
I have the body of a god. Buddha.... I like that...that is the one for me!!
LOL! Veni, Vedi, Visa: I Came, I Saw, I did a little shopping.
these are classics!
Nice site, really! I sit here laughing out loud and my kids wonder if I have definitely gone over the edge now...
Subline for the babble game:
Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.
good morning everybody:)
Hi jean!

Hello everyone! I'm almost in the grid today (or rather, my real name is). :)
hi kitty vane
Hey Kitty
marple? rita? kitty!
Kity :)
heh
oprah!
Eerika, just missing the extra E :D
And I see that "Kitty" almost there too
Wow, don't think I ever have seen that name written like that. Without the extra E, and with a C, but not like this.
mm-m, you see, I'm special ;)
Of course you are!
Bumper Stickers These are some of the best! Sorry if I look interested, I'm not! When I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you. I'm pink, therefore I'm SPAM. I poke badgers with spoons. Be alert. The world needs more lerts. Keep on working, millions on welfare depend on you! Veni, Vidi, VD. I came, I saw, I cankered. I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to become a vegetarian! Alcohol and calculus don't mix. DON'T DRINK AND DERIVE! Kids in the back seat cause accidents; Accidents in the back seat cause kids. Money is the root of all evil. For more information, send $10 to me. That's not a haircut, it's a cry for help. If God is within, I hope he likes enchiladas! So many stupid people, and so few asteroids. Want a little taste of religion? Bite the minister. I didn't believe in reincarnation in my last life, either! Excess is never too much in moderation. My mind is like a steel trap. Rusty and illegal in most states. To err is human, to moo bovine. Think globally, Act galactically. My wife says I should get up and go to work, but the voices in my head say I should stay home and clean my guns. If it's not one thing, it's your mother. Drugs may lead to nowhere, but at least it's the scenic route. Don't believe everything you think. Help your local Search & Rescue. Get lost! Carpe Diem = Seize the day. Carp In Denim = Fish in pants. Life is short. So buy the shoes! Never believe generalizations. The generation of random numbers is too important to leave to chance. I don't think, therefore I am not. Jesus saves. He uses double coupons. Veni, Vidi, Velcro. I came, I saw, I got stuck. Avoid alliterations always. Dyslexics are teople poo. Say "NO" to drugs. That will bring the prices down. What would Ashton do? Jesus loves you. But I'm his favorite. An Apple a day keeps Windows away. This bumper sticker intentionally left blank. When you do a good deed, get a receipt in case heaven is like the IRS. What would Gandalf do? Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. Double your drive space. Delete Windows. Does anal retentive have a hyphen? If it ain't broke, take it apart and fix it. Resistance is futile (if < 1 ohm). My mother was a moonshiner, and I love her still. MOP AND GLO - The floor wax used by Three Mile Island cleanup team. I'm Canadian. It's like being American, but without the gun. Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks. I used to have a handle on life, but it broke. The original point and click interface was a Smith & Wesson. The control key on the keyboard does not work. The meek shall inherit the earth, after we're through with it. Being "over the hill" is much better than being under it! Wrinkled was not one of the things I wanted to be when I grew up. Nuke the Whales! We'll hunt them at night. Jesus loves you! Everybody else thinks you're a jerk. Lawyers have feelings too (allegedly). If there is no God, who always pops up that next Kleenex? Too much Pluribus, not enough Unum. Forget world peace; visualize using your turn signal. What wouldn't Jesus do? If you believe in telepathy, think about honking. People like you are the reason people like me need medication. Every time you open your mouth, some idiot starts talking. The box said Windows 2000 or better. So I installed Linux. Use the best: Linux for servers, Mac for graphics, Windows for Solitaire. I found Jesus - he was behind the sofa all the time. So many cats, so few recipes. Save the trees, wipe your butt with an owl. Don't make me mad. I'm running out of places to hide the bodies. Rock is dead. Long live paper and scissors. Knowledge is power, and power corrupts. So study hard and be evil. On the journey of life, I choose the psycho path. On your mark, get set, go away! What would Scooby do? The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list. Let's skip the insults and get right down to your butt kicking! I don't have a beer gut, I have a protective covering for my rock hard abs. I am not infantile, you stinky poopyhead. If you can read this, you're not the president. To err is human, to blame it on somebody else shows management potential. Liberal Arts major: will think for food. Visualize Whirled Peas If you can read this, I've lost the trailer! Stoplights timed for 30 mph are also timed for 60 mph. I didn't climb all the way to the top of the food chain to be a vegetarian. Don't treat me any differently than you would the Queen. Practice safe lunch: Use a condiment. What we need is a patch for stupidity! Follow that car, Godzilla - and step on it! Frankly, Scallop, I don't give a clam. Wrinkled was not one of the things I wanted to be when I grew up! I fought the lawn, and the lawn won. If you can't read this, thank the teacher's union. Procrastinate now.

You're even funnier than the site, mrP!
heeeeeeeeey mrp!
Nut!!
Done and fireworks.
Actually, you even posted some words from the grid, mrP ;) WTG FMitch!
was gonna say hi on yahoo, but i'm not getting in
if 'grid' showed up in a grid, could you refer to the grid as... the grid? ;p
congratulations fmitch
We had that a couple of times, sylvia. You'd have to say G4 :D
thanks and Morning jean
hilarious.
sorry guys! I so didn't mean to do that! I was just copy/pasting one thing!! oops! sorry again
Lol mrP, you made me laugh. Really!
i'm not sure why i thought of that or why i think it's so funny, but as long as i'm amused...
only to face the wr*** of babblers scv
nut, you on msn?
yes ma'am mrp
T4/7: one of the things most spotted in the chat :D
holy cow! scary sounding creature outside...aliens are coming!
It is a cow, nut. "To err is human, to boo devine" as mrP told us :)
to moo bovine!! hehehehe
okay sprite, if you say so, but thats one screechy sounding cow.
I can't sign into anything nut!! stupid crappe computer!! it is possessed!
That was a T47!
mrp, wouldn't bother anyway, tis almost time to go work 12 on my friggin day off
Oh oh... nut's aliens have infested mrP's computer!
and i still don't have the 'k' in my grid
Now I am jealous.
alien nuts? what??
quick, someone give me a k to see if it works (wonders if anyone will fall for it)
OK OK nut... here's a K.
i'm disappointed that analpry is not a word
LOL!! you funny nutsky! tell work to FO and take your day off... just tell them the president said so
aliens in my woods mrp, their everywhere. it's been a pressure all, i mean pleasure. now off to the pressure...not pleasure.
Good luck nut!
hi and bye nut!
*smoochie smoochie* all
bye nuttabutta
And what did the pig say?
pigs can talk??
duh.
In this grid they can.
i keep seeing parm and thinking eggplant or chicken parm
oh! fish slap please
it's always food with me!
I want parmezan.
mrP: give a person a fish...
...show them how to use the internet....
So no fish for you!
my IQ came back negative too
the skin disease that helped discover the new world is in the grid, used it in scrabble a couple days ago.
I thought you just gave me a word, and now babble won't accept it!
i did sprite, but you probably have it already, p5
Ah, I thought lepra ;) That's dutch spelling, though, so not valid.
I tried "lepra" too (it's also the finnis spelling of it)
Babble is SO partial!
:-)
Found a word that uses both Ys :)
yay sprite ;-)
cool!
well done Sprite!
Yeah, made a T4/7 entering T4/7 and found T4/9 ;)
I keep typing manlier
I want womanlier.
Argh! I did NOT do that. Did I? Sooooo sorry.
phantom: party
trinket, had to have tried three times already
I tried trinket twice too.
Please keep on posting. Remove my blunder from the visual range.
and tonka. how i wish tonka was ok, haha
I tried Tonka too
and Tinka
Tonka should have been valid. It sounds valid.
it is! Luke insists!
LOL it SOUNDS valid
i love it
Let's invite the enable dictionary over for a nice reeducation session.
ooh, earlier i was all about torpedo
yes! you hold it down whilst I insert a vowel or two
it does mean something in a native american language.
Oh yes, there's too many words that aren't in the dictionary that really should be there
Good thinking, mrP!
I'm still upset that "Lurex" isn't a proper word, and that "poot" isn't accepted either
Lurex...?? sounds like a sleazy condom
haha.
and I am not touching poot!
haha, it's a type of fabric
lurex and durex, perfectly common words they have become. But not to enable. Lurking in the middle ages, enable manages to hold down millions of babblers from all over the world.
"poot" is what I use to onomatopoetically describe a small fart
Let's just say I don't want a lurex durex.
Or a very bad poet.
morning all, im done.
then youd have to allow things like kleenex
Hahaha, me neither Sprite, me neither!
and then it becomes a regional thing
kleenex, now there is another one.
Good job, oggy!
hoover too!
before the other day i had never heard of "lurex"
well, it accepts "Lamee" but it doesn't take "Lurex", it makes no sense
Mornin' All
yay oggy!
Hey Odin!
hi.
Morning Odin!
hi odin!
and well done Oggy!
good evening everyone
morning odin
Hey Sprite
hi andree!

Morning Andree!
hi jean!
Mornin' Jean, Fran and everyone
yay oggy!
lethologica.... it sucks!

That's what I thought firs too SCV
Lol, not THAT kind of little thing, sylvia!
And fireworks, at last.
i was just talking about music!
check 1 2... check 1 2... chick 1 2
yay sprite!!!
Ok, this just ins't fair! It takes words like oi4/8 but it doesn't accept "Lurex"!
congrats sprite!!
Well done Sprite!
congratulations sprite
yay sprite
You mean Lurex isn't a word?
help with py5/16 please
thanks sprite & mrp
what the heck is Lurex?
oi4/8 is oi4/8 to all of us, but lurex doesn't mean anything to.. say... me. not sure if i *should* have known what it was, though
WTG Sprite
lurex is a sparkly knit fabric
andif i dont know it, its not allowed :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lurex
pint

*~*~*~FIREWORKS!~*~*~*
yay mrp!!
yay mr p
Hooray for MRP !
Yeah mrP!
Please can someone explain what the stats mean...?
on't understand what A 1//3 means etc.
sorry tile stats and word stats
tile stats tell you how many words start from each tile in the grid
so is A 1/3 1 word or 3 words...?
word stats tell you how many words of what lengths are in the grid
A1/3 means: from the upper left A tile start 3 words and you already found one of them.
*exhausted*!! time to go look after lickety, master and miss p! love ya all!! sorry I can't stay and chat!!
goddess, click on angelsong's resource page in the links below, it explains everything
see ya, Mr P
*hugs* mrP and good luck with managing the little hospital!
bye mrp!!
sorry guys, I'm confused, so with the word stats, if I see 4: 9/97 there are 97 words or 9...?
*cuddles* thanks!! BYE!!
bye MRP - look after yourself too! best for the sickies as well.
Say Hi for us and tell them we are praying for a quick recovery Please Mr P.
looking for angelsong's
Same with the word stats: 4: 9/97 means there are 97 words of 4 letters and you found 9 so far.
thanks, and will do!!
hello
be back later
Pretty bubble, Tiny!
hello mr pres
hey infernal
yeah
later tiny!
OH...I'm getting it...thanks guys!
Yeah I like pretty things
hi herinfernallady
In short, Goddess... you have still some work to do on this grid, lol!
Bye All
hey fran and tiny this is a hello and bye as i have to do school stuff and im tired and crankyt
okay infernal, go be cranky, see you later!
so with the letter K: 2/8 means I have 2 but there is 8...? the thing is I have 3, see why I'm confused
you may need to refresh goddess
you guys are great! I've always wondered what that stuff meant, going in blind
just remember that it's words that start with that tile, not contain that tile
welcome to babble then goddess!
thank You!
i have to get to sleep, see you all later!!
Okay guys, I am off now. Have a great day/night/whatever to you all and happy hunting.
i need a clue for ap 5/16 please
bye sprite!
Ap5/16: monkeyness?
*poof*
brb
is the word "trinity" in this puzzle
just type it in spanky - you will soon see
i am guessing that you can't repeat a letter you have already used in the word? Is that correct?
ps spanky - the convention is to not type words or possible words into the chat. only clues.
i don't quite get that clue sprite
Spanky - no, you can use that one letter many times - just not in the same word.
thanks.
magzel - monkey plus first 3 letter of a kind of bread.
duh - first 2 letters - sorry
thanks dianne, now it is clear.
does anyone have the 7 letter word yet?
pr7 - the guy who moves the stuff around on the stage or movie set.
TY Dianne
thanks Dianne
YW :)
ot oh, must be dumb, I can't find that...aah
something man right
F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S
start with the p on the left then go up........
I've seen 'fireworks' a lot tonight, what does that mean...? a clue or what?
Goddess - 'weird 'compound words are really very common in Babble - especially for the long words - this one is two words a four and then a three.
Congrats Sha!
thanks, I'll keep looking
got it...thanks!
Fireworks means that the person has found all the possible words - fireworks will come up at the bottom left of the screen.
bye all
oh cool
Nite
and Goddess - when you get really stuck you can also look use Licketys List - see link at bottom - I have hit a brick wall and a going to it now !!!!!!
clue for ka/6 anyone?
think of a word that means country and change the first letter to K.
:o that's a word? lol
FIREWORKS
Hi everyone! Congrats Andree!
those last p words were an uphill grind
hi Bittong
Congrats Andree!
Hello Biltong
Dianne, I don't get your clue for the ka6. Another word for country?
o.k. - think of the word for when you have to sparingly share the food and start it with a k instead of an r.
Ahh, got it now. Thanks!
okay, I give up......Can't find the 7!! Help please??????
4/3 ends in man
compound word ishult - male who moves around scenery backstage
got it, thanks Goddess
I have to go soon - anyone need any more clues?
I'm off goodnight everyone
Goddess - the convention is to not spell out any part of the word - except the first two letters of course. just find another word that means it - for instance I said male instead of saying the last word as you did. Most people enjoy the challenge of nutting out the answer themselves - indeed the more cryptic the better.
nite Andree
hear hear lynxxx, part of the fun is tearing out your hair trying to work out the clue
clue for la4/6
the old la** lighter.
Good morning everyone. I think a notel should be an inn where one goes for illicit activities
hi Eva - cute!
duh! why couldnt i see that before? thanks dianne
good one Eva - with parking in the back!
and everyone signed in to the registration book would be a Smith
Hey, I used to be a 'Smith' ;)
ooops sorry 'bout that
I was glad to give up that kind of life... ;)
Got to go - have fun all.
I'm not going to ask Spanky (-:
Yeah, let's save that chat for another day...I have to get to work now. Bye...
spanky is your first name hanky?
thats fine Goddess - thought I would just let you know before people start writing ...'Goddess (or whoever) said a word!....you will see that happen quite often!!!
I'll never tell.
(s)panky!
You know I got my name at that notel.
Bye all.
I bet!
has everyone got the 3 H words....I have 2 and stuck on last one?
I'm totally new at this...how long does it usually take people to get this?
Goddess - there is a ha4.6 5.18 and 4.5 - what are you missing?
keeen - the time totally depends on the sizde of the grid and usually experience as your vocab will build up. The grid last night was over 300 words but that can take as long as one with 70 words. It is really hard to say how long it takes!
ummm, I have the one that beats in my body
and the one that plays to my ears
hee hee, I just got it by adding a letter DOH
OK then you are missing ha5.18 - which means it has five letters with a point score of 18 ( a tile value of 9 - as 5 letter words are worth double). I gave the words in alphabetical order to you which means it comes alphabetically after the music one - and you just got it - YAY
thanks, I'm starting to understand the whole stat thing better now
that top A word is killing me
I have one to go
and have the rear end ones
hee hee
I am going quite now as I am doing wa too much chat and no word finding! last hint Goddess - its a girls name
beautiful Thank You

periwinkle - if you have pr4/6 which steadies things, add a male.
don't have the pr4 yet
got it haz, thanks
thanks haz!
peri, to shore something up so it doesnt fall, a pr**
oh yes, forgot ot thank you haz..your clue helped
ends with male, peri
must be dense today,can';t get that pr4
or what magicians use, peri
Glad to help, wolvie. peri - it begins and ends with the same letter.
The pr4 that is.
thank you everyone, I was starting with the wrong P, got it
peri pr + h**e you get this clue!
the glasses and books and swords and stuff on stage in a thespian production, peri - or to support
the monkeys are getting silly, any clue for the ik????
ik4/8 - i plus part of a famous chocolate bar. The one that sounds feline
ends with a preposition
great clue, haz..
oh, thank you Haz - that was my last i and was driving me crazy!
good clue, haz, thanks, thought I tried that
thanks Haz
congrats amanda!
You're welcome!
hooray amanda!
no no no - last i-word. Still have 34 wierdos to find
ahhh - well, it's the thought that counts. ;-)
how is the grid? and morning guys, gonna slip some in before taking child to school
save it for when you do it....then remember, even if we aren't there then, ,we did all congratulate you!
but thanks anyway...
hi laurel, starting to get babbly
hi laurel - some strange words in there today
hi kl!
finding it not too bad, klaurel
don't like strange. :)
there's ALWAYS strange in babble!
And that's just the players.
this is the first time i've been able to systematically attackit in alphabetical order and get to pr's without asking for a single word (of course, Haz just happened to clue the 7 )
lot of first names in the puzzle today, Tyra is here(Tyra Banks)
lol, haz, so true....have you ever been on here in the evening (usa time)? we get some doozies - they do keep it fun,, though!
I'm not often on in the evenings US time, Dorens, although there was one occasion when I was late going to bed or something. The chat log moved so fast that I was dizzy!
phantom word - party
"tonka" toys are here
well, I seem to be slowed down by the pr's....so it's breakfast time, see you later
sometimes I'm such a ditz - I just went to turn off a light I realized I'd left on last night, and ended up turning off the computer.... sigh. Am I going senile at 40?
amanda, you need caffeine, that is something I might do!
Good idea, Annie. I'll put my second latte on...
my daughter is very close to your age, amanda
what the heck is that IK word supposed to mean??? I tried combos until it worked, but have no clue!
any help with the L? Ive got the L4/6?
is she going senile too, Annie?
It's a method of printing material, according to FMitch, who had remembered the word from previous grids.
haz gave a clue for the ik, i plus chocolate that starts with a name for a kitty
ugh! :)
amanda, she is so busy being a mother to two active boys she doesnt have time to go senile but her mothr is doing it for her
bbl
la5/12 - French for rabbit, or add what you use to temporarily keep material together before sewing.
Bye periwinkle.
later, peri
see ya' peri
more power to her then Annie. Luckily no children have to suffer my encroaching crazy-old-ladiness
bye peri
lol, I wouldnt mind being 40 again, nice age, enjoy it
be back, have to drive child to school
ki words drive me crazy, any help
bye kl
anyone else notice that oprah's in there?
ki** and kin, ,annie?
one rhymes with a drunk
thanks, dorens
IKAT= A method of printingwoven fabrics by tye-dyeing the warp yarns (warp ikat), the weft yarns (weft ikat), or both (double ikat) before weaving.
and think of KI**el ssanders (liberal spelling)
oops tiny. ;-)
dorens, didnt get that one...have ki** and kin and the drunk not the one just clued
It seems to be a critical age in my family - my Mom decided to turn her life around at 40, and I'm in the process of doing so as well. I certainly dreaded my birthday when it came around, but afterwards it turned out to be quite ok
rhymes with funerary vessel for ashes
40 is actually a lovely age (in retrospect)
dorens, got them all , thanks
yw
morning all :)
dorens, I agree but I didnt think so when I turned 40. It really is a nice age

Babblers
you know like a gaggle of geese or a murder of ravens
Babble players chj!!!
ay4: a + *** and yang

no volcano, but a different palm tree today (ni)
LOL chj
sorry....i had that typed in lady then thought because of poe's dark image it was the raven
I lke a "giggle" of girl guides
thanks!
I LOVE that hetty. i'm going to have to use that with my girls
Shnikes! ..What did I start? Oh well, let's be a babble of happy idiots then ..
ravens have a cool name for a group of them, but I forget what it is
LOL torgone
or a bubble of babbling idiots
I used to clean house for a lady who had a poster of all those group names. I don't remember a lot of them.
storytelling of ravens or unkindness of ravens according to the site I am looking at
a group of vampires is called a "kiss" - how do you like that?
a group of vampires is called a "kiss" - how do you like that?
thats it, unkindness
thats it, unkindness
can you post that site?
Hi FMitch
http://rinkworks.com/words/collective. shtml
Afternoon Caitlyn
lady there are 2 for ravens-- a conspiracy is the one I like better
that would make a good theme some day
this is such an educational site.
Love it@
I was thinking the same thing chj
Unkindness doesn't seem appropriate for such a majestic bird--unkind in fact
it's a murder of ravens btw
yes hetty - am not sure the site I am looking at is the best.
a sleuth of bears
a gaggle of geese
or is it a murder of crows??? either way. big black birds ;-)
a murder of crows
"hordes" of screaming women....
Ah well that is a whole different issue jcm
LOL jcm
a brace of rabbits
LOL fmithc
Hi mm
a peck of peppers
HAH!!
that peter picked?
do you pick the pickled ones une?
its a murder of crows and an unkindness of ravens
LOL Unea
I wonder who came up with these?
an unkindness of ravens?
an alternative idea for a good theme would be to create your own collective word
I'm so nervous about getting my ankle checked this afternoon, I'm approaching hysteria!
FMitch, try www.vigay.com/nouns
yeah, check the website http://rinkworks.com/words/collective. shtml
chj, great idea!
Whats that one Hetty
Une - i'm soo sorry. Take a deep breath and relax.
I hope you will be okay Unea
FIREWORKS!
lady, mitc said he didn't thnk she had the best site siO I sggested thge Vigay because his drawings so appeal to me.
Whats wrong with your anke
yay amanda
congrats, amanda!!
Yeah for amanda!!!
hurray, amanda!!
Woohoo amanda
wtg amanda
bravo amanda
a "fluther of jellyfish"--what a hoot!
I've already suggestd my own collective fo girlguides--a "giggle"
My favourite tv show about to start...back in an hour
lady, I broke it a little over 2 weeks ago and the ankle orthopod will tell me today if it's healing OK or if I'll need surgery to insert pins . . .
I like that Hetty
... and on hetty's website we find the collective noun - a Thicket of Idiots!!
hetty, that's great!
how about a baboonery of babblers?
NO way! there is really a name for that. Interesting
Oh une. I will keep you in my prayers today
The thicket of idiots would be a good one for babblers!
How does it feel?
specially the thicker ones!
what about a pride of idiots?
Mind you I have just spotted an Asylum or Bloat of Microsoft Programmers and a Wunch of Bankers, so wonder if the site is also a little tongue in cheek?
une, thinking of you as I hobble off to the library today--LOL
Une, I wish you luck - hopefully it will continue to heal well on its own
thanks, all for your concern--as my mother would say, I'm just "working myself into a swivet"!
ok. Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm missing a tr4/4 .. I've put every combo in, and nothing works... WHAT am I missing???
Darn guys. I have to go for a while. Take care. Une - I'll check back later to see how you fared.
Yeah, and even if they do surgery, it wont be today
oops, comma shortage . . . thanks, all, . . .
Rae, the term "pride " is already valid for lions.
oh we're thinking of new words, I see
kc, have you tried the tr on the right side of the grid?
FIREWORKS... now I can call the phone company to get my computer dial tone back.. I hope.. bye everyone.. see you in September! (tomorrow !)
congrats, aloyisius!
then how about a grid of babblers? or a scramble of babblers?
Congrats Aloy
Why don't we steal one? A bloat of babblers?
or a burble of babblers
So, back from phone and necessary e-mails - congrats Aloy! Can I offer anyone any help?
looking at it, it's impossible for the rt side one to have a 4/4
LOL!
tr4/4 - 3 of you
tr4/4: three of something
oh. cr*p. I just saw it.
lol
ok. maybe it's time for a break..... literally spent 5 minutes on that......
any hints for the ka6?
ka: rhymes with nation
(visually anyway)
feline with a charged particle
lady - alt. spelling for a type of charged particle
lol, great clues
is the ka6 what causes the feline's fur to stand on end?
a chat of babblers
Oh thats good chj
oh that's good chj
a babble of chetters
*chatters!
a lexicon of babblers
how about the ki4s?
a thesaurus of babblers
a ward of babblers. ;)
A verbosity of Babblers?:)
now they are coming thick and fast
there's the word often coupled with "kin", lady
a clutch of babblers
a (t)ern(e) of babblers
and take the k word hetty used and add a vowel to the end
I'm off all! Have fun!
good morning!
Morning, Jac! This gaggle of contributors is right up your stret
a scrabble of babblers
a lurch of babblers
Got the vowel noe
need the middle ki4/8
Thanks, Mitch, I was coming to that
a battalion of babblers
oops, monkeyed it
the ki4/8 rhymes with "churn"
oops sorry hetty
Thanks Hetty, I monkeyed it lol
Hi everyone! Just got back from shops. Can't stay long as I need food and also want to make a blackberry & apple pie. (Picked about 2lbs blackberries & ½lb of field mushrooms yesterday.)
No wrries, Mitch. Ilove it when babblers telepathise.
a school of fools. ;)
Oh, I have a good one - " A hint of Babblers"
yummy jac
that is a good one, lady
Jac, you can just mail that jam right here
Yum, pie ..
Jac, here in Canada we use minute tapioca for thickening blkackberries in pies--really absorbs all that juice
ladyn - it might make your inbox kind of sticky...
Same here Hetty
Any hints for the la5?
Yum yum Jacs - how about blackberry and apple crumble and custard!!
i don't think she'd mind
I don't mind Jac, send it anyway - it will just cover up all the spam lol
if you have the Ki's i have a funny riddle for you...
la5 is french for rabbit
how do you make blackberry custard?
and Ka's
I do shorty
Hetty - That's an idea. I have some ground tapioca & so might try that with one of the pies. (I'll be picking some more blackberries over the next week.) Been picking sloes for Mum to make sloe gin with, too.
Okay, if Babble takes French words, why isn't noire a word
I went on KA**** and gave this guy a KI** (said with a lisp) :)
I imagine you just make a custard and put blackberries in it at the end
Mm, my hubby loves sloe plums
lady -- no "E" at the end. :) its accepted then.
ladyn - it is if you take the vowel off the end.
My grannie made sloe gin--also dandelion wine--she was convinced neither was alcoholic since she made them in her own kitchen
that was ka6/30 and ki4/9 ladynoire
she didn't use a bathtub?
Love the logic hetty
ROFLOL Hetty! A guzzling grannie.
I only use the bathtub for gin...the sink is for the whiskey.
hi everybody!
and now I am reminded why I buy new cars. Dragging a car to do the darn emissions test is a witch
ladyn - I wonder if 'sloe plums' are what we call 'damsons' here in UK?
hi
what is the theme today?
My grannie didn't have a bathtub
shorty - soap bubbles.
I thnk so Jac
*makes a note to visit raelites house*
did anyone like my riddle?
I got those Shorty - but great joke
She used to stand us kids up in the old stone kitchen sink for a thorough wash
hehe thx
wow that must have been cold!
then she used the same sink for gin etc.
alcohol kills germs lol
shorty I did like your joke--just more interested in
culinary pursuits at the moment
so do antibiotics, but I think alcohol will be more fun
good point klaurel
Probably KL
Ladyn - Blackberry Custard (chilled, berry-topped custard) 3/4 cup sugar 1/3 cup all-purpose flour Dash of salt 4 egg yolks 2 cups milk 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup whipping cream 2 tablespoons sugar 2 cups fresh blackberries Garnish: fresh mint sprigs Combine first 3 ingredients in a heavy saucepan; whisk in egg yolks and milk. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, 5 to 7 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Pour into a serving dish; cool. Cover and chill 2 hours. Beat whipping cream at medium speed with an electric mixer until foamy; gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Spread over custard. Top with fresh blackberries; garnish, if desired. Prep: 15 min., Cook: 7 min., Chill: 2 hrs. Yield: Makes 4 servings
wow, lady, you were passing vicodin yesterday and now its alcohol! Hmmm . . .
she's a woman of many interests
man i missed the vicodin? awww.... shucks
Thanks Jac
Could I have a clue for the ar 4
I like the variety
Sorry shorty
Jac, please add this yummy recipe to your file in babanon
STill on the vicodin actually
Okay Hetty.
its okay this time but don't let it happen agian hehe
I think we should have a recipe swap
rocky - to be interested in fine paintings, or crafts?
I wish that the doc prescribed me some of that in addition to the cipro
What the h*** is vicodon?
Rocky - ar4 - good at painting & drawing?
jacula, good recipe, I'll have to try it
Pain killer HEtty
thanks Jacula & LeslieAnn, I was trying to use the other ar.
like Percocet
Thanks Jac., everything I've tried of yours has been simply scrumptious
you know it as oxycontin...it's the pill house pops on tv
I don't recognize these names. Strictly an ibuprofen person me ( for arthritic pain)
KL, go the pharmacy - you can get an over the counter med for your pain - turns your urine orange, but it works
Vicodin is not oxycontin - not as powerful
are you sure you're not thinking of oxycocet?
hmm wish the grid took oprah (i know, proper noun)
its oxycodone in the generic
Recipe's in BabAnon now, hetty. I'm glad you've enjoyed what you tried so far. I do like to hear feedback from people.
I always had to double check that one when we got rxs for it in the pharmacy
oops, sorry, its hydrocodone
percocet is oxycodone
oxycontin is a powerful pain killer used usually for cancer patients. vicodin is used for when you have surgery or back pains ect.
yes, that's right
I cant take oxycontin - too much respiratory suppression
Right, Shorty - its nasty, evil stuff - very addictive
yeppers sure is
I thought House took morphine
no he takes vico
anyway, I take vicodin for a torn rotator cuff
as far as I know, morphine doesn't come in a tablet
Mmm, I saw one ep, he was injecting Morphine
yes, morphine comes in oral meds
he was injecting it, but those pills he pops are vicodin
and liquid too - the pediatric liquid is Smurf blue
morphine comes in capsules only
15,30,60,100,200mg
Nope, the pediatric morphine is a liquid - its Windex blue
and liquid, oral, sc, bucc, and supps
but ped's only get very small doses, much smaller than 15mg
ped take liquid...usuallly 1mg/ml quant or less
Aw, shame Babble doesn't allow 'yampy'! (It's a Brummie/Black Country expression for 'nuts/crazy/bonkers'.)
Rae - you got a PDR over there?
no I work in a pharmacy...
pyra - a female pyro. babble is sexist.
I do cancer patients all the time...unfortch
Ohh, cool - the morphine liquid for peds, is it still blue?
I know all about the druggles
no 'parp' allowed either...:(
it does come in the blue (windex) and it also comes unflavoured
EW, unflavored, that must be vile
oh wait no pyro either. nvm ;)
brava leslieann
I"m allergic to morphine, so I can't take it, but the blue color always made me laugh (I'm a nurse)
well I've never tried it personally, but it does smell kind of like vodka
Yuck!
if you're on liquid morphine, you're really not caring about the taste at that point
I'm allergic to codeine, morphine, NSAIDS, aspartame .... the list just goes on
chj are you still recovering from last night?
Rae, thats sad but true
that sucks...I'm not allergic to them but I can't take any of them either (autoimmune disease)
which one, if you don't mind me asking?
it's the buccal shots that freak me out
I have lupus
refresh my memory - buccal shots are under the tongue?
no, worse, in the cheek
I didn't know lupus patients cant take morphine
I knew it was in the mouth somewhere
I can't take any drugs, the lupus is in my blood
its been a long time since I practiced real nursing
oh crap!
so yours is systemic?
yes...it's the really bad one
Rae, I am so sorry .....
it's already done a number on my pancreas, is working on my kidneys
time
my doc wants me in the hospital because my iron stores are almost 0
damn (pardon my french)
yeah well...lemonade
Could I have a clue for na 6/27
Thats awful
are you diabetic now too (pancreatic involvement)?
sorry rocky don't have that one yet
yep, it gave me diabetes, gout, fibromyalgia and psoriasis
holy crap!
thanks anyway LeslieAnn
life hands you lemons, you make lemonade
And you're so young...
I've had lupus since I was 15
Rocky - na6 means tablelinen, but expand you na4 (back of the neck) word.
If life hands you lemons, look for someone whose life has handed them vodka, and have a party ..
Very profound, torg.
I admire your strength, raelite. You are in my prayers.
rock on torg
oh thanks...I am lucky to have a family that loves me and a great game to get my mind off my life
Raelite, I'm so sorry to hear about your lupus. For what it's worth, I have a friend who was diagnosed over 20 years ago and has had a child and ups and downs but is basically doing fine!
I wish you all the best Rae - you've got an amazing positive attitude!
wow rae u have been through so much i also admire your strength. i just recently was diagnosed with diabetes and i wouldn't be able to handle much more than that
Thanks Jacula!
oh yeah, I'm going to live for a loooong time hahahaha
Rock on, Rae!!
Just come back on just in time to wish better health to Rae and shorty
{{{raelite}}}
{{{shorty}}}
{{everyone}} hi!
Hi stid!!
Hiya Stid
Right, time I wasn't here! BBL. ((Hugs to raelite)) and fervent wishes for improved health.x
Guten Tag, everybody. I am stuck on the second na 4/4, even a2z is no help, any help out there?
I don't mean to be flippant .. I feel bad you have this disease, but I admire your perseverance and great attitude ..
Hi Stid
a grandma's name, inge?
guten tag inge! ich hab das game nur started...
Bye Jacula Hi inge
Ich brauche nur noch 6 Woerter
sorry I had to work...ugh!
hi caitlyn
thanks for the support torg...
way to go inge! :-)
later jacula
I always think though that life isn't easy for anyone, we all have to face challanges and mountains
That is very true, Rae
for some its physical, for others its mental or spiritual
and there are times when I wish I could just be normal for even a minute and not have to take drugs every day
Thats very true rae but some people dont cope as well as others
I want "tonka" to be found in the dictionary... I played with those trucks all the time when I was a kid (I know, proper noun, but still!)
*hugs for rae*
I guess it boils down to being thankful for what you do have ... and that you're not as bad off as some other folks
thanks leslie
LOL stid!
that's the way I see it. give thanks every day
Thats sounds trite, I know ....
babble helps me cope. for many years, I sat and endlessly played the word games on yahoo -- and the arcade games -- because life was so scary. Now that I have babble I get a LOT done, and I can look forward to sitting down with either game or friends when I need. {{{Dr_God}}}
Rae...your attitude is terrific....good wishes your way!
yeah! woo hoo babble!
Stid, whats your secret? How do you babble AND get work done?
that
and hooray for babblers!
that's what I want to know, too
I love this game, more for the people than for the game
yeah, we're pretty great
I spend a little bit of time babbling, then when I hit a wall I get up and work for 15 -20 minutes (if it's housework); or an hour or so (if it's art); then I babble some more :-)
I'm at work now and I have my word screen and my babble screen crushed together in the same window
so I can write my articles and babble at the same time
Good idea Stid
What kind of art?
hi stid
Rae - thats a good idea, I will have to try that
what do you write, rae?
I can't multitask like that, rae... I fall into one screen or the other! LOL
hi shorty.
thx stid for the hug
Im soglad I found babble and I feel part of a world family
I know, Stid, I'm easily distracted lol, its a blond thing
lady, I make greeting cards and have started painting silk scarves. I haven't really sold anything... but just the art is such good therapy!
I write articles about acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and excema for my company's website. I also do research and development and answer customer's questions about drugs
Oh, how cool - both Stid and Rae !
wow rae -- that is impressive! And explains your erudite posts in the log... :-)
hmmm, i bet you know a lot of big words, rae
Rae, where do you work? I'm work in research in the US
caitlyn -- that is EXACLTY how I feel! :-)
lol..I also do art, I do watercolours and fimo sculptures of plumeria
Stid, I'd love to see some of your work
yeah my head is full of what my boss calls 10 dollar words
I would love to work R&D for a vegan, fair trade chocolate company...
oh, how pretty Rae, I love plumeria
mmm chocolate...
Stid, I"m sure you could ... there are several companies out there that do that
I make those plumeria picks for the hair and necklaces and rings too
there isn't a whole lot up, but go to qualitywordworks.com/store.html
Ok, can someone clue the na6 word again - I don't get the linen thing
rae do you have a web site?
stid do you have a website?
rae, that sounds like a lot of fun! sculpting is something I have never really tried...
no...I've tried taking pics but the flowers are too small they don't turn out well I want to get a macro lens
you've got to try fimo, stid
Nice work Stid
hee hee -- piggy word in the grid! :-)
thanks lady.
I can't wait to see the scarves
yu can leave it out for years and it never hardens unless you cook it
I have a friend who dyes silk for scarves, very pretty
those are beautiful stid... how much do you charge for the scarves?
stid those are totally gorge!!!!!
I'm more of a dilitente than an artist, I dabble in lots of things, but am not very good at many of them
I loove the orange flowers!
I haven't figured out a price, LeslieAnn! LOL so far they've all been given as gifts...
but wow -- with this reception, maybe I should make a few and give it a try...
Please do Stid
me too, rae that is my favorite
Hint hint - I like purple, blue and green
and burgandy/wine/magenta
if you want to do a lupus one, the mascot for lupus is the purple butterfly
hint hitn
oh, nifty Rae - I love purple and butterflies, how cool
okay, It will be a week or so (hard to paint when the kids are home) but I will let you all know when I have some up. Rae -- does your local lupus group do fundraisers?
a good friend of mine started a kn4/8 hats for charity website and donated all the money to aids research
stid + Rae do you have websites?
I've been thinking about getting another tattoo and butterflies keep popping up
down to my last two and I need a clue
okay -- a rainbow scarf for lady... purple butterflies for rae... LOL
did I miss something? whre can I take a look at sitds scarves?
opps sorry

A memory- in the hotel room while waiting for the funeral, Knutmeg and I played Babble together on the bed....we Babbled even then....true addicts!

Fiz, have long since stopped being amazed at your abilities (andcreativity)!
LOL Jai!

niam - just finally got it right. it was raining big chunks at first and that hurt. but i promise to use it more now that i've got it perfected.
*holding breath until I hear inge is done...*

BTW, does anyone need clues or are we all done for today???

Hi all back for my last 85.
I went to pick up my photos there yesterday, the bill came to $95. How did that happen???
Ty, Fiz!!<gulp, gulp>
Hi mm
Wow Inge - sounds like you shop like I do.
lots of pics of the bromeliads, inge? let's blame it on your husband... :-)
Hi, MM!
Cheers abe!!
Hi jai - haven't seen you for a while.
wow! did you go by the book section? that always hits me for $50
hi musicmom -- "kids back at school" icon?
costco is dangerous that way
just been telling people my Daddy died, MM...
Yey! Trying to play the soap bubbles theme.
sorry boss popped in to "chat". close call!
The film developing only cost $3.50, but the spring bulbs, etc. etc. made up the difference
I'm sorry jai
eep!
Yep that's what I thought inge. You shop like I do.
jai -- did you know about the condolences for you and Knutmeg in BabAnon? It's under "Other Interests"
ty, mm....but the Babble goes on.....
could I have a hint for the ay?
ooops, those were fall bulbs. We keep the dear well fed, and see few blooming flowers in spring/
bye everyone - see you tonight!
No, Stid, I didn't! How sweet!
bye TO!
Bye TO
*deer
bye TO
oh, I saw the bulbs, and considered getting some. Then I considered Tom's face if I showed up with still more things for the yard...
later TO
rayelite, ay + not out
tot ziens, TO
thanks
LOL stid. I bet it would like Greg's face when he came home to a large stack of fabric on the table the other night
merci
In Elsass Lorraine there is a town where every piece of land is covered with daffodils in spring. A sea of yellow everywhere That's what we are trying for in our little wooded area.
oh, you didn't musicmom! LOL Fabrics are my other addiction... I need a "keeper" when I have to go to that store!
How pretty!
There is a hillside like that here Inge. Very beautiful.
hey stid, where do you get your silk?
caitlyn- cheers to you! (sorry, was distracted by coworker)
No I didn't - actually. A friend is getting ready to move and was cleaning out things and I sent me a bunch of pieces she didn't want any more.
oh, how lovely that would be, inge! I have ancestors from Alsatz. They came in the early 1800s and settled in Ohio then my branch moved to Iowa... My mother and father visited that region when they were last in France.
I love seeing the daffodils in spring around here they are on the side of roads as well as in the gardens
But it was funny because he thought I did. He doesn't really care about the $$ but can't figure out why I need so much fabric. I have a very large cabinet in the storage building that is packed full.
We lived for a year (l991-2) in FReiburg, Germany. France was only three miles away.
I have been getting the scarves from Dharma Trading Company. But there is a local source (would be considerably more expensive to do this) that has bolts of "peace silk" that doesn't harm the worms...
It was like that back in Illinois where I am from- tiger lilies all over the roadsides.....
I bet that was neat, inge!
Dharma has very nice silk though
Oh that would be good stid. I think she you should get some <VBG>
Are we talking about fabric?
I've been wanting to make a silk quilt
I think YOu should get some. sheesh where did that she come from?
yes lady.
I am planting daffys under the trees in my "orchard" and lilies and other things. I cannot mow on the slope, and Tom doesn't enjoy it much either.
wow eco friendly silk...that is nifty.
I work mostly in 100% cotton but have been doing crazy quilting with silks, satin and velvet.
MM, I envy you! I wish I could do that!
there's something out there called soy silk, made from soy protein
the only difficulty with the peace silk will be making the scarves, though I think it would be a good excuse to sit in the evenings and watch TV while I hem them.
I've only seen it in embroidery silks thought
Oh -- a type of soy "rayon" -- hadn't heard of that, will need to go looking!
whats peace silk?
someone on ebay sells it
Thanks jai. It is a great relaxation for me. Though I have to say babble has cut into my sewing time. I guess it is all about choices.
post at 12:11 lady
oh, so they don't kill the worms before they unravel the cocoons?
babble has cut into all sorts of things! but I do have to get my day started. Boys are watching the third Indiana Jones movie, so I can take a shower in peace and get some laundry going.
I have been making Christmas stockings for the girls. I have been using their Christmas and Easter dresses from when they were babies and toddlers. One side is pastel and light (Easter dresses) the other is traditional colors.
that's right, lady. I like that -- but it's considerably MORE expensive...
oh how pretty Music
I wish I were there to watch with them stid. Love those movies.
that is such a great idea musicmom...
I bet - what do they do, wait until the worms hatch, then harvest the silk?
Thanks guys. I'll try to post a picture when I get them done.
found a new puzzle site- it's called the Quiddler- heard of it?
I like the first and third. The second movie is dark and the dame keeps screeching. (My poor ears)
Heading out for a while, back in a couple hours.
Bye, stid! great "seeing" you!
The screaming dame is/was Spielbergs wife lol
Bye stid
Bye stid ---- no I haven't jai
Bye Stid
cya stid
bye Stid
It's a fun little site- free, with some neat puzzles
I'll have to check that out.
Im going now catch you all tomorrow..Happy Babbling all...bye
anle
sorry
bye Caitlyn
by cait
bye cait
bye Cait
well - we just had a water cooler disaster - 10 gallons of water all over the entry way and reception desk. oops!
bye cait
bye cait
OH NO Fiz!!!
OMG- not enough paper towels for that one....
Oh crap, Fiz !
everyone's ok and the 3 people who were there won't spill about what happened. but i heard the SPLASH and went to help.
thats a lot of water
Lol fiz. Great pun
ugh, fiz..I am so glad our water cooler is plumbed...no messes here
fortunately we've got a shop vac in the back - so i got to suck it up.
oh lord, she's punning again
pun? moi? never.
riiiiight
in a punny mood, Fiz?
I'm never gonna finish this grid
sure you will lady
*looks shocked* wherever would you all get such an idea about me?
Need help, Lady, or just hand-holding?
lol, Fiz
Neither, lol, I need a longer attention span
Fiz, i wish that would happen in my office **evil laugh**
Abe - it could be arranged lol
yeah it was pretty funny, abe. but sadly doesn't really impact my ability to work - so i'm stuck for the afternoon. i did get to use the shop vac though, so that's something.
I spilled cranberry juice all over my keyboard a month ago....brought out the sugar ants and had a bad case of sticky keys...what a mess....
yay, power tools
anyone have a hint for the 2nd pr 5/12???
What do you do Fiz? I'm curious about a job where shop vaccing is exciting.
any clues for the oi4/8?
water is definitely easier to clean up! shop vacs are fun too!
I don't have any pr5/12 yet
pr+ electrical charge
pig sound lady
oi what a pig says
well, double duh
thanks jai!
hey now I have two pr5/12
mm not my job, my personality. i run a "capacity building program for hiv prevention practitioners" - not a lot of power tools.
yw!
Jai - nasty little things, they cause Mad Cow
AHHHHHHH the need for power is great.
oooo, ick, get out the bug spray!
what do the numbers mean that I keep seeing you guys talk about?
jai that sounds awful. we've got a sugar ant problem at the house and i can just picture the heaving mass on my keyboard.
Keeeen - the first number is the number of letters in the word. Second number is the point total.
prat
5/12 means that the word has five letters that add up to six points x 2 cuz it's a five letter word....
oops sorry
MM - as spiderman says - with great power comes great responsibility.
ty...how do you know what the point total of the word is?
Yep ---- gotta watch out for the horsepower on that shop vac
Read the help at the top of the page Keeeen
Fiz, actually, it was one of those days...didn't know whether to laugh or cry- was Babbling and killing ants with my words.....
keeen, there are wonderfully gifted people who have created second letter lists to give us all an idea of what we are looking for
ohhh, jai. i have many of those days.
I did music...trying to figure this all out...have to say, this game has the most helpful people on it...I appreciate it
any hints for the or5/12?

thanks inge, got it
ri5/14 anyone
pr + what is in a pen
Remember that Molly Ringwald movie, "Pi4/7 In Pr5/20"
any clues for la5 please
a 6 letter word could total 7 points and then x that by 3 fir 21
if the base score of the word is an odd number, multiplying it by 3 keeps it odd, yes? example base 7 x 3 = 21... (6 letter being x3)
exactly FMitch.

I have the ap5 you wear when you cook, but need the otherone and the ap4.... Hi everyone!
hi and thanks :)
Hello Nancy! Was just about to check the laundry -- looks like you-all dodged the worst of Ernesto!
ugh,... larger monkey house?????
ap 5 - means mimicry
ap5/16 = the act of copycatting
hi flosey!
and all...
ap4 someone who mimics
hi stitmama, how are you today
Meaningless request for epsilon cents for each time ap4 has appeared in a crossword puzzle
TY
hi all - sneaking in at work - - can anyone help with the tr 6/21 - it've been trying forever to get it....
doing well, flosey! Even walked down to the garden and picked a few apples, a cucumber... and pulled up the garlic to dry in the sun1
hi debb!
have you tried three times??!!
debb, three in russian
shoot - i mean the first 6/21
great day to be out eh stid
hi all!!!
tr 6/21 is the old caveman way of treating headaches... drilling hole through the skull
lovely day, flosey! I guess you're enjoying the weather as well?
stid, hope you are feeling better
Hi Stidmama, yes, that was a real bunch of nothing...not that I am complaining...just that the weathermen down here delight in trying to scare everyone and now we know that they knew way ahead of time that Ernesto was going to be a bust. Hopefully, people will not turn them off when there is danger. Right now, we are having a storm with lightning and thunder that is 4 times what yesterday brought....oh the joys of living in Florida
I have been on the West coast of Florida opposite Orlando in one of the those storms, Nancy! I know it wasn't a bad one, but to me it was really scary... and lightning hit the house I was in!
Annie, I am well today, thanks!
indeed we are stid,
oh, I need to change my icon to something pretty. Zygodactyl is one of my favorite words, but the icon is boring...
thanks all - working on cavemen drilling heads - glad to hear you're feeling better today stid!!
I think weatherpersons are frustrated terrorists ..
ouch, stid, drilling hole in head - was that to release the evil pain?
I guess they're afraid to under emphasize the weather, since Katrina
Debbi, caveman drilling heads?
yanks 4-2
Okay, here are my menfolk, standing beside the bow of The Lady Wshington, who played the role of the Interceptor in _Pirates of the Caribbean_
it was a clue for the first t 6/21 --- great clue - thanks stid
debb ...hows the grid going for you
but can anyone elaborate on that drilling clue? I'm dense here
pr7/40 anyone?
i have one more chj -- is the yankee game over
i hate pr's they drive me crazy
yw debb -- and I am so glad I don't like in the days when migraines were treated by tr 6!
bottom 6th
thank goodness stid!!
the pr 7: a person who takes care of the articles on stage or set -- the little things the actors use!
pr7 = a particular stagehand
was thinking the same stid, but there were times I might have given in to that
aaah, if the yanks win .... guess who has the best record in all of baseball??????
flosey -- start like a word for "three" and add something you fry in.
debb...did you see the yamks blow that game last night
any clues for the tr6/30?
ty stidmama
okay, need to do some laundry. brb
wish i did - i love seeing yankees blow games
tr6 a russian threesome...like a triumvirate
3-2 lead two outs in the ninth...and a three run homer loses it for them
mmm, don't speak any russian
Tor, amen to that!!!! And all this stuff about being a meteorologist is so laughable...None of them are any better than I am at predicting the weather down her. It was comical to listen to them this am, saying that THEY were the station with the weatherperson who said that Ernesto was going to fizzle.....
wow - shouldda watched that
tr6 lt tr** in star trek TNG + kitty **t
debbie....yes, I love to see the Yankees lose as well.
tr6 tr + nothing + *** and tina turner, but change last vowel to great grade
When they're all saying the same thing, the only thing they can hang a hat on is to say "WE were the FIRST with this EXCLUSIVE report!!!!!"
Oh, got it
cool icon chj
thanks chj
I know this is a family game, but anybody else find it comical that an** and or** appear in thesamem puzzle?
I know, they are all a joke down here. Everyone feels the same way and we delight in making fun of them but honestly, how great is it that they are right approximately 20% of the time.
thanks debb.....i was going to go with bubbles the clown or opera singer beverly ("bubbles") sills, but like this image of a bubble in utero
flosey...illl bet you were a big glenn ford fan
not really chj, my sons watched everything to do with star trek
(might of jumped the gun on that best record if the yanks win - tigers will have one more win and one more lost - or - the yankees will blow it and it'll take a few more days)
FIREWORKS!!
congratulations debb
yay, debbinla!!!!
wtg debb
It's easier for them out here - "What's the weather like, Skip?" "Nice. Back to you, Ted."

jillian hhhhuikol.
Jillian, hello.
MVA -- I have a computer program that has lots of languages, Cornish is one of them. Only a few phrases I am afraid, but wow is it interesting! I thought it would sound more like Welsh, but it's WAY different!
it uses the same base, as did the breton language.
i never learnt Cornish when in Cornwall, unlike in Wales where Welsh is compulsory up to 16 yrs
I think it's wonderful that Wales is helping keep its language alive... If only that were true in more places! I am intrigued by languages -- the similarities, the mutations between members of the same linguistic branches... just fun!
Breton and Welsh are @live@ languages whilst the Cornish language died, but renewed interest brought it back, and the number os cornish speakers are increasing
did everyone dive into the grid?
hey, stid - down to 39.
I have 95 to go... distracted by kids and dogs and lovely smells from the kitchen!
I tried but conked my head on the monitor. Now I need a tr6/21 ..
I am glad they have enough information to bring it back, MVA. To many languages are lost to the imaginations of scholars only...
LOL tor! if you have a headache (and you're a caveman) from your diving, tor, you need to tr 6 your head!
Well, I have been called a neanderthal ..
ri5/14 please anyone
so, do you already have holes in your head, tor? (that is a clue)
have 90 more to go -- was trying to get an early start this time, but lunch is over -- be back later.

Congrats to riemann
congrats
glad you're here. Was wondering what sort of a wave a dot on a tire would make as it travels forward...
wahoo riemann!!
katusha -- i think I already have the one you clued. it's the last one, right? I need the first 6/21.
Any high school senior would know about their pr4/6.
A spot on the tread of the tire would make a cycloid (assuming the tire isn't skidding).
I know about the dance,.... I need the one after the one you push your baby in....
I remember my pr 4... the band was wearing leopard and tiger skins, and playing on elephant head drums...
thanks riemann, will tell the kid!
Some airplanes still have pr4/6's instead of jets.
It's a busy life in Camelot [solo] I have to push the **** a lot.
don't have the first one yet, sorry!
phantom alpine

Speaking of mathematicians with too much time on their hands, the number of words isn't prime, but composite, 11*13
phantom: anamorph
good happy lunchtime boreetos!
thank you stidmama, right back at ya!
But what got me thinking about was what percentage of words I had completed. I was thinking, "Ah, if there were 144 words, in the grid, it would be easier to determine certain percentages of completion."
I long ago forgot all math past the basic algebra I need for household economics... :-)
this grid is fierce today.
Finally,,,****FIREWORKS**** some really weird words today....
YAY NANCY!
yay, Nancy
ka6 please?
congrats nancy
congrat..... the first py?????
KA 6 is usually spelled with a c at the beginning, it's the opposite of an ion (I think)
sounds like naother word for country
hi can I have a ma5 14 clue?
thanks, stid.
py4/7 = py + opp of out?
ma5/14 = syrup from up north for your pancake?

Yay, Jac!
Yea, Jac
I had a wonderful time, thanks. We arrived back yesterday. And hello stidmama!
my last two -- tr6/21 (first one) and tr6/30. Help?
congrats jac!
Is that you in the south of France? My mother has pics like that with the flamingos on the beaches...
YAY jacula!
"albuminous constituent" would make a great blog tagline
Jacula - hello! The holiday was wonderful - I enjoyed it more than I could ever have imagined.
Stid - the photograph is of me in Kenya. Lake Nukuru to be exact.
Haz - I'm so glad! I'm looking forward to hearing all about it. (No, I STILL haven't completed my Crete travelog!)
I agree Douglas - also, I just watched those two Star Trek episodes two nights ago, with Locutus ;)
tr6/30 - a russian sleigh.
Oh! you caught the birds on the other end of the journey! good for you. :-)
resistance IS futile, you know.
Jacula - I've already started writing it all down just so I will be able to remember all that happened while it's still fresh.
Hello All...everyone having fun with the grid?
LOL boreetos! It sure it, when trying to get things done and babble calls!
Tell that to species 8742, or whatever it is, the critters that trashed the Borg in the Northwest Passage...

Should I feel encouraged that I have less than 100 words left?
:) I am SO out of my league right now. :) I bow down to your far superior startrek intelect, Douglas.
chillin' today after the not a storm in south florida
Haz - I did that, too. It's just turning it all into something readable I need to find time to do. I have to go for a while (one of our old bunnies got flystrike at the weekend & I need to give him his medicine and a wash). BBL. So glad you had a good time.x
Oh, poor bunny! Hope he gets better - I'll talk to you again soon.
(glad the bunny is still with us, Jac) see you later!
Belated Hooray! for Nancy .. if you're still about ..
since when is "maperoni" not a word?
Hi all. 4 left. Any help on tr6/30?
we were talking about that earlier Odin -- I am glad it didn't happen... but I know that every time a big one is predicted and doesn't show up that people get frustrated and less likely to take the next one seriously.
well, kids, its been short and sweet. See you tomorrow! Work doth beckon.
LOL boreetos!
I just Googled maperoni, which responded "Do you mean macaroni?"
I'm getting hungry...
It is alot of hype...people buying everything in site when the storm was a tropical depression...crazy!
:) that's awesome.
musicmom - it's a russian sleigh.
The party in power in Canada...
musicmom, i can't find it either :(
More rain this afternoon than yesterday...everyone got a day off from school and work and all returns to normal in so fla ;]
yes. At least with earthquakes, there is no "prediction" just a need to have supplies on hand "just in case" and life goes on...
While it's a Russian sledge, it also has a connotation of a group of three working together.
tr, two vowels, then the ending of the feline sounding chocolate bar (tr6/30)
they are a whole different story stidmama
okay, it's tr+the noise a pig makes without the n + the first vowel, musicmom
got to go now, see you tomorrow!
see you MVA!
Got it. Thanks.
this grid seems a bit tough, how's it going?

One way you can know that the number of words is divisible by 11 is when both the number of words you have, and the number of words you have left are two digit numbers made of the same digit, like 55 words with 88 left, for example

There is a Bible verse that I don't get. What exactly was Jesus talking about when He said "The **** of the body is the eye..." exactly?

Well done, Charm!
hello lynxxx
Thanks lynxxx! I hear you had a monster grid (over 400) while I was away!
one an 4/4 is a woman's name...
cool douglas! my day is not complete without finishing the QP puzzles, it would be nice to get more people there too.
the 2nd an..... not the bottom one.....
hi lynxxx!
In order to hit for the cycle (a rare feat), one must, among other things, hit a ******
Hi al my real last name is in the puzzle, but it is not a word
one down.....
hi pe4/5!!
hi p4! parts of you are in the grid all over then!
Yep, I feel really special today
Peri--my real name is in the puzzle, too--but not a word. Hi, everyone. I'm in & out lately with travel and beginning of classes.
al5/10 please
Douglas, the verse in the Bible is Matt 6:22..the answer to your question is in verse 23! Hope this helps.
hello miranda!
Anyone remember the TOS episode "Amok Time," where Kirk and Spock were having the battle to the death, and when it looked like Kirk dies, T'Pau cried out something? What she cried out sounds a lot like tr6/30
katusha, an5/10 is the woman's name + a consonant or the "bottom" one with doubled consonant in the middle
Hi everyone!!!

hi fran by biltong
I know that Buttonman, but alas, that doesn't help, and I've known about this verse for a long time. Does it mean if you look upon things from a godly perspective, your deeds will be good as well?
gooo katusha!
la5/12 please
go katusha go!
la 5/12: french for rabbit
In the book The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle claims that Matt 6:22 is part of an esoteric tradition that somehow got past the censors...
la + hair *** turn
thanks stidmama
Douglas, how you look through your eyes determine the good or evil or light and darkness...if you see through eyes from God's perspective you will see well, if not you will see not.
stidmama, I have a reciipe for ginger jam if you are interested
that would be neat! thanks... :-) I love ginger!
Isn't la + hair *** turn one o' them French words?!?
stid, I will e-mail it to you later today, It is really good, I love ginger too!
Buttonman, I'm reading Matthew Henry's Commentary as I write, and he seems to be saying the same thing as you...
peri, what do you put it on?
toast, Fran
instead of regular jelly or jam
PR 6/27 please?
thanks p4!
sounds like it would be good as a glaze for meats also
Douglas, great and that commentary is one of my favorites...bless
stid, when you are on time, you are pr6
oops, i said a word
pr6 = now, on time.
is this a hard one today or is it just me?
I missed the clue for the first 6,21????
it's a little tricky hodag
*thinking* thanks all!
which 6/21 katusha?
which 6/21 katusha?
thanks fran,I feel better
the first one, not the "#RD" one
katusha, what first letter?
tr.....6,21, the first one
tr6/21 = tr + vowel + cooking pot
it's late, but only 5 more.... can't go to sleep!
go katusha go!
You can get the **** emphatic. You can get the **** polite. You can get the **** with Indians: A very charming sight. You can get the **** on horseback; They'll all say it's new and gay. So you see the sort of **** Depends on what you pay. It depends on what you pay.
katusha, think prefix for three + pots and ***s
Got it.....TY clear now!

Hi.. Sorry, but I still don't get this numbers thing.. You all seem to know which is the first letter in a word. And now I got these "Tile Stats" and I think I'm too stupid to understand it. I thought the first number would tell me how often I've used a certain letter and teh second one yould tell me how often it can/should be used in order to solve the whole puzzle. But the numbers are not updating correctly? I hope you understand what I mean, it's late and I'm confused since I've stared at the puzzle for far too long. Plus, I hope my English isn't that bad.. And I hope someone can help my and answer my questions! Thanks in advance! =)
i need a clue for ra 5/10 amd 6/18, the last 2 please
Sorry, I just realized I made some typos..
IF, the first number in the tile stats shows how many words you have found starting with that letter
friend - in the stats, the second number is how many words there are that start with that letter in the grid
not to worry IF - we all make typos, you're right about the numbers below the grid, are you using Lickety's Babble Clues? you'll find it very helpful
Ooooh.. Yeah, that makes sense! =) Thanks Dogluver!
no prob - do you get the word stats?
Imagine, many of us are using a list generated by liuckety, click on the lickety's clues and you'll see a list of all the words--their first two letters and their total number of letters followed by their total point scores
This goes to flosey: I got no idea what Lickety's Babble Clues are!
Hi, all.
Hi all! Down to the tricky ones now Imaginary friend if you go to Angelsongs Babble Page -the link is at the bottom of this page -all will be explained! It is not as complicated as it seems first ime out -be warned tho' this game is addictive!
Thanks bookwyrmish! =)
hi book
hey owl
Yeah, understood it now, dogluver! =D Thanks a lot!
at the bottom of this page you'll find a list of "Friends to Babble" Lickety's Babble Clues is on that list,
i like babblers anonymous too

It's a bit difficult when you're German - there are sooo many words I've never heard before! But then it's a fun way to improve my vocabulary. =)
I'll have a look at these sites, thanks!! =)
does anyone have a clue for the ka6 please -had 5 littlies here today & my brain is just about to explode!
there are a good many words I've never heard of too ImaginaryFriend
Does anyone have a clue for pr4/6 (the very first pr in the list)
take it slow, just enjoy the game
true... a good tactic is to guess random things you've never heard of... and you're very brave to be playing a word game in a non-native language!
I was just going to say yhat too flosey
Good to know, flosey! ;)
hey what abput the ra 5 and 6 the last 2
Could that be a baby's perambulator (short form) for pr 4/6? I haven't started the list yet
I have less than 2*2*2*2*2*2 words left!
ty5/16 & ap5/16 please
yes, that's it bookwyrmish
There isn't anything like that in German and I LOVE word games so .. I gotta try in English. ;=
go Douglas
perhaps a German/English dictionary could help
snowyowl - ka6: misspelled house pet + charged particle
I like Babblers anonymous too Dogluver. The other thing that may be usefukl for you is what some people consider a cheat but can be a life saver, especially if english is your 2nd language,is A - Z Wordfinder.com
TY dogluver
yw, and i agree
IF, I don't know anyone who uses ka6/30 in everyday conversation, but then, I'm not a chemist, either.
IF and dogluver, there are also lists of 4, 5, 6 letter etc. words which lickety has linked to on the right of her page
bookwyrmish- thanks!
I don't like dictionaries. ;) I mean, I've got one included in my browser but I rarely use it. It's just that.. You just have some words but you don't get to know anything about the word's connotation so it's quite hard to use the words correctly. I know, that hasn't got much to do with babble, but I just don't like dictionaries. I prefer to learn English by talking and reading and understanding words by checking out the context. ;)
IF--obviously it works for you!
betty - ty5/16 is ty + a friend
ty and friend, ap
I'm off to make dinner, be back later. Happy babbling, all

bye!
Bye! =)
It's worth taking some time to visit all 3 sites - lots of info & fun to be had. Clicking on the question mark nest to listed word should give you a definition , altho' it has been known for there to be no definition sometimes!
One . . .word . . left . . . .
bye book
next!
come on tor you can do it!
which word is it?
Thanks for your help. Appreciate it much.
yw
Must . .find ..word . .MUST ..keep . .talking like . . . Shatner ...
One the other hand, IF, it should be noticed that if you hang out here, your English will be corrupted with a lot of words used by very few people. Like ap5/16, for instance. I would much prefer to use phrases like tomfoolery or monkeyshines.
anyone have the ap 5/12?
to4/10 . . .Got it!

oh not good arb. Snowy give them lots of sugar and any dogs you have or can lend and take them out and let them go nuts, works for my partners nephews
did i offend you torg/
All I need are the tr6/30 & na6/27. Clues anyone please?
oh, well, you're up by burlington so it's like 3 hours south of you, ARB, but it's this great store with apples and pies and maple products and all the great vermonty stuff, and they have a Maize Maze that you can walk through (for like $15 a head)
it is the right time of year for the maze though, i think
still only have 6 words sorry betty i cant help you
i can't even tell jilli, i'm on a dial-up connection and most of the icons are not loading!
Thanks anyway.
not at all, herin .. just wanted to make it clear ..
We're going North on Saturday to Canada to meet my nephew and his family -- so the 9-year-olds can play and the adults will finish a bottle of single malt scotch
tr6/30 is a Russian sled pulled by three horses
sorry betty- i don't have them either
tr6/30 = a Russian sleigh pulled by three horses
FIREWORKS
jinx
i think you need your red roboty icon back tor, to avoid such confusion
snowyowl, you will have fun on Saturday, I know it! It is so cool that you are close enough in distance to spend so much time with your grands... my in-laws have always lived so far away, the closest they have been in a 3-hour drive... so they don't get to see the boys very often.
YAY ARB!
the na word is the collectdion of linnen tableclothes, doilies etc.
They don't need much to hype them Dogluver! LOL Just being together wears them out! I'm hoping for better weather than is forecast & they do all have a birthday party to go to so I think we should do OK. The thought of bathing them all is daunting tho!
dinner time for me, ta ta!
thats cool i know lots of people that do that so i thought id ask and add better not have bettter legs than ,e om a dress cause that just erks me royally, even my partner looks better in the hooker boots than i do
later hursh!
wtg arb!
snowy simple garden hose and soap. Ok thats kinda mean but fun
snowyowl, hand them bars of soap and send them out to play in the sprinkler... (that is joke...)
done and done, hurshy .. Later my love . . .*blows kiss*
um. joke better understood in context of bathing... LOL
by torg
*hands on hips* torgone, you are always flirting with everyone but me! :-P
and me
FIREWORKS!
YAY Daisy!
ok i have to go and do school work so ill be back later, think ill shower first as i have a kink in my neck and shoulders
YAY Daisy
help with OR5 please...
Pretty dense here. Didn't get either of those clues.
later infernallady!
i was dreaming school work last night, head flops onto keyboard
later hurshy, I think the weather may provide the water for me on Saturday. I'll just have to put thousands of towels on the bathroom floor!. If we do have a miralce & dry hot weather they can bath in the paddling pool!
ty all :)

I DON'Y want to go shopping - just groceries and boring stuff
That other pic was scary ..
renfield... see my icon? that's the Lady Washington... aka "Interceptor" from the pirate movie...
I know it doesn't match the theme...
*DON'T (not don'y, ugh)
i love tom servo - he's so you!
A belated thank you ARB!
oh. Well, have as much fun as you can then, Jill. see you when you get home!
kool stid!!! we did not use your ship to kidnap chj.
I see -- well if you ever need to, I know exactly where to put him -- :-)
well - if you're offering stid...let's whisper so no one hears!
(okay -- there is a hold at the aft that holds roaring lions and ...)
jilli foiled our plans last night!
oh that Jill! she can be a little bit too mature, if you ask me. *looks to be sure Jill isn't listening in*
(ok i've got it! thanks!!!)
jilli used the parley word to free chj!
oh oh, that's only valid when it's used by another pirate though...
she deserted the crew and decided to save chj!
Fireworks finally. Thanks everyone for your help and have a great evening.
hm. There are two crows nests on the ship, perhaps she wants to spend some time contemplating every possible meaning of the words "quiet as the grave" (spoken in my best Norrington imitation)
YAY BettyAnne!
LOL no honor among thieves...
but of course, it's the honest ones who are always doing something incredibly stupid...

good evening all
Ren, didn't know we had...sides...
ill bet youre a good one too
what area of law does your boss specialize in
*blushes*... flattery will get u everywhere!!!!!
ren is the side of evil and im on the side of good
actually...i work in all fields...corporate, insurance lit, property, family, children's aid, etc etc. i fill in for ill or vacationing people... i love it cause i get to see all aspects.
what field did u specialize in chj?
well,,,jilli drew the line last night....i didn;t think maybe you as a skeleton pirate pirana are missing your sides jbp....sorry
um, maybe I'e watched too much bad scifi, but i can't trust anyone who claims to be on the side of good...though his name IS Renfield....
mostly trusts and estates...but also a little real estate, tax and corporate
good evening folks
hahahaha jbp.....your are good! - evil good!
hey ya leslie!

It doesnt seem to be flowing tonight, still need 50, and I am only up as far as the n's. Can't see me finishing this one
i thought it would be a cakewalk, with so many 4's, wren, but it's a scrappy little grid
i'm missing a no4- i have the x-mas one,the black one, and the one you write
ExWren, it is not flowing for me either, i need 41 and don't see myself finishing this one either
there is an anagram of the black one
may be back later
inge- thank you very much
no 4, french for black, invert last two letters
Thank you leslieann. I'm skimmed right over it
help with PR6 please
that's ok i'm a whiz at copying and pasting ;)
pr6: when you are on time, or do someting on time , you are pr****
beebee's post was very timely for me, and inge's clue. Thanks folks
we could do with one or two more E's, and maybe an S or two!
tr 6/21, either?
tr 6: tr + second vowel + frying ***
thanks inge
can someone explain the stats to me? I don't understand why there are 3 categories of "a"?
tr6/21--single, double, tr****...
ok can't believe i missed that one thanks liba
:)
the tile stats correspond to their position in the grid, so the first a will begin three words etc
try the "help" icon above, sassy. the numbers by the letters is how many words start with that particular a. also helpful is angelsong's resource page link below
hello to all.... back to try and find 108 more words... lOL

Hi Blaze, go to it!

Long after Otto and Owain had returned to their apartments in the village, and John and Anna had retreated to the guest room, and the younger teens and children were fast asleep, Paul and Gilly remained in the kitchen, talking.
kn4 my granny kn**ted me a sweater
*the first one *
"Looks like Peter needs me starting day after tomorrow. I can run into the market tomorrow and get anything you need."
kn** rennie used many kn**s in tying me up but her favorite was the sheep shank
Gilly set the kettle on the stove and wiped up a spot of water before rust could form.
*whispers*...andy...let's me n u steal the hummer and take our own cross canada trip ;)
"Yes, I can write out a list in the morning, if you don't mind. Helena and I have a system for harvest time, and I know exactly what we will need."

Though their talk was on mundane matters, each had a heart and a head filled with strange questions and ideas.

Paul tried to get up, but Polly put her arms on her hips as she had seen her mother do many times before, and gave a good approximation of the "Ava stare" that stopped him before he got even one foot on the floor.

Shortly after, Paul hitched up a horse to the farm wagon, and with Andy holding the reins, they headed to the village -- to pick up provisions for the harvest, to invite Esmeralda to supper.

Gilly and Anna, Polly and Meg, Doris and Nan spent the rest of the day between setting up the kitchen for large batches of cooking and getting the house in order again.
your nick is the same Cathy?
sorry did not read all messages
Gray, Olivia and Sarah were happily ensconced at their great-grandparents, with Cathy popping back and forth between the houses.

lol
k...i'll look for it andy
Otto and Owain were at the market early, setting up. They saw their father and brother drive up, and helped Andy down before moving the wagon to the far side of the market, where merchant carts and wagons were already being unloaded.
A few of the merchants looked quizzically at Paul; a comment here or there reached his ears and made them burn.
lol...oops...don't send email to my hotmail...i have it filtered...just add me to yer contacts list
Finally, Andy heard a couple of the comments, and staunchly stood in front of Paul.
"If you have something to say to my father, then say it out loud like a Person instead of quietly like a rodent."
cathy MSN does not allow me to add you * sad face * - try adding me - same nick as here on Babble
Otto and Owain, who were just coming around a corner, collapsed in laughter.
The merchant to whom the child's speech was directed felt the color drain from his face.
may i have the no's please pretty please w/ an arrrrghhh on top???
and email andy12489@yahoo.com
In astonishment, he looked again at Paul, who was trying his best to look stern.

Does anyone have tr6/30 and ty5/16?
An older woman from the back of the group that had gathered pushed forward. She put a hand on Andy's shoulder and peered at Paul's face.
one does not suck...one inhales profusely! lol

Before the morning was over, the entire village had found a reason to wander by the market.

The room was empty. Paul opened the door to the basement, and called down. There was no answer.

Concerned, Paul sent Andy back to the market to bring the twins with the wagon.

"I am tired, Paul. I waited for you to come. There is a book..."
She coughed and Paul helped her sit up while Otto filled a cup with water.
chj - for you takk
"We'll take you home, Esmeralda, Cathy and I can come manage the shop in the mornings, and you can rest."
night, kristin
Is this going to be as addictive as it seems?
the story or the game?
She shook her head. "No, Paul, let me stay here. The trip is too long for me."
YES, jennylical
yes jenny....there is no turning back
great clues -- but don't get the flock of seagulls!
the story is great
answers: yes and yes
She gestured at Otto, "The boy can stay with me tonight. He knows how to make tea and fetch things. And Cathy can come in the morning."

Paul smiled, remembering all the hours spent finding, drying, grinding and miing the herbs in the tea.

He called down the ladder and Owain passed up the jar -- and a box of sweets that were good for the throat.

re5 a re*** race utilizes a baton
Finally Otto had what was needed, and Paul was satisfied that Esmeralda would be okay overnight, he took his leave. With a warning to Otto to seek help if the doctor took a turn for the worse, he kissed her gently on her forehead and climbed back down the ladder.
sorry andy - you want me to wait on you?
I am not getting the seagull thing either.
re5 wimpy said to popeye...i will gladly re*** you on tuesday for a hamburger today
song by the band Flock of seagulls
Paul and Andy dropped Owain off at his apartment, and headed for home.
instead of the seagullthing use this ,,,the capital of i*** is tehe***
Nan was concerned that the doctor was ill, and was ready to go right away with her casket of herbs... but Paul smiled comfortingly and assured her that no special recipes would be needed this time.
re5 when the badge on my lapel came off they had to re*** it
Gilly sent Meg over to let Cathy know her help would be needed in town in the morning; and Polly dashed across the fields to let Peter and Helena know that the twins would not be available for the harvest until at least after lunch.
re6 when you lost half your conspirators, you had to re**** the kidnapping
re6 instant re****
re5 most posters are re***ductions
Supper was again a quiet affair, but Sarah kept the family amused with her attempts to grasp a pile of mashed vegetables; and Olivia and Gray performed a duet of favorite nursery tunes.
