ren is in the grid today
wedding. :( high heels. 10 hours
ren & chj - you guys are cracking me up !!! where's the nutster? and her rebutttal?
my 3 year old would not get off the dance floor
she's in bed asleep
helen you rock!
how was the wedding, klaurel?
glad she enjoyed the wedding !!
thats right klaurel you had a wedding
and the wedding bit the big one!
did you wear black and did the bridezilla behave? Did you danse on tables? we want the scoop
ha!! they deserved it not to be good
nut needs to get ahead of the curve and deliver a preemptopry strike on us
I wore the dress I picked out and everyone liked it
chay
morning all - bit early for me
oops
I got to the ceremony just at the end so no disturbance from the child. Groom made sure we were there for pictures
nut won't be back until late tomorrow
That helps!
good
how's your mom doing ren?
I mean about the pics
Bride made sure that it was only bridal party and no family pics, which means , my hubby (the brother)was in the pictures and the other brother, and his wife (bridesmaid) and their son (usher)
good morning spel
me, my son, and my daughter, not a single freakin' portrait picture
Hi Deb
thay have her drugged debs - she was sleeping while i was at the hospital. sh'e also in a netted cage to keep her in bed
how rude
thats absurd klaurel - absurd
that is the best part of it for me...seeing all of the families
I don't give a darn about me, but the kids ARE the bride's neice and nephew
hey matey ah5/7
and they had a little slideshow pic of the bride and grooms
werent they in the wedding
a4/7 I hope chj!
the kids
bride put a picture of her and stepniece and stepnephew in, but NOTHING with her blood relatives (can't be too upset since the 21 year old nephew didn't make it either)
lots of boat stuff
sounds like you are on the D List, klaurel...
and no, MY kids weren't involved in teh wedding at all
ya5/18
peet
got over the slideshow since none of her family made it in
i am sorry klaurel...events like that are no fun...
but the family pics pissed me off. I told my hubby that his sister basically acknowledges her brother's existance and treats his family like chaff
No, but the dancing was great. My daughter had so much fun and she was dancing with her step-cousin and my 10 year old was laughing and calling him her boyfriend
is he as upset about this as you are
pretty much made the night
thats what is impt klaurel - !
yes. Hubby is upset but I don;t want tio stick him in the middle, but I told him the next time his sister gets all passive-aggressicve and snipes at me, I am letting her have it. 19 years is enough of that crud
I hear you. My husbands family is the same way. totally disrespectful. But, I have him, he has me, and we have great kids. Make the most of what you got and feel pity for the others
evening all
ok, got the new icon - too tired to be original
g'devening, ornith
oh, and the band's singer aimed straight for me when he had to sing in someone's ear. :) I was laighing so hard it wasn't even funny! I mean BK, I could see, but now? not really hot anymore! :)
oh, what's icons today?
totally agree, wurdy!
things we can't live without
lol that is funny
see you had a good time
at the end, year we had a good time. :)
though I had to bribe my son with a trip to Best Buy to be good all day
that is one expensive bribe
icon theme - something you can't do without
back
wb
no one chose a screen shot of the game. i'm impressed! ;p
clever, muse!
alright gotta go my mind is fried and now i am confused from flipping
later all
ty jilli, courtesy of google
yeah, it is an expensive bribe. But you know, that is part of why I hate his family. My kids are somewhat hyper and I have to find ways to curb them when they are with his family and I don't like to do that.
there we go :P

*beast
You know that and I know that MVA but......!!

Hi FMitch, nice entry ;)
Done and fireworks!
morning FMitch, and thanks for that ch weirdo
yay fmitch!!
congrats fmitch
wtg FMitch!
YAY FMitch!!! WOW!
Wow, that's fast, hehe.
nyes
oops
wow, fmitch, and here i am just starting!
Was up fairly early and have a lot to do today so glad it was a shorter grid. Happy to clue for a while though.
Next time a real word MVA - preferably one I haven't got! [Yes I did try it]
So did I :)
I always do just in case
i see "guac". i ate some earlier tonight and it was delish!!
Oche is a word as well!
One thing I learned from babble: no matter how unlikely a word looks, sounds and seems, it still may be valid. And however common and normal a word is, it still may be NOT valid.
froelica take that g word add a cons to the end for the g5/18
Words of Babble wisdom sprite!
I see gouache ... almost
why, thank you fm!
Ata! *hug*
thanks fmitch
thnx fmitch
FMitch, a consonant? Or a vowel?
i'm already seeing "cheeto" as well. i think i have the munchies!
cons = consonant
ty fmitch
It's my rubbish shorthand sprite
I do have a Gu5/18 with a vowel at the end. Still looking for the one you mean then.
awww there's a cute ch7/40
Any clues for the gu5/18 It's staring me in the face
sorry all sprite it is a vowel on the end. and I started so well
babble can do that to you fm, i knew what you meant :)
The swindler, Ata? What is sweet about him? ;) LOL FMitch... okay, I will stop looking then.
guahe
oops
We must be on the same wavelength fmitch because I got it!
mkt - scroll down to 2:20 and follow upwards
and me!
what's cute is the noise that little baby birds make ... :)
lol JFB and MVA
Thats me done for now - over half way - probably bbl.
LOL! Thanks Ata... you are right, that one is cute :)
yeah, rhymes with that dreadful marshmallow easter candy
bye jfb, and ty ata!
amylou has a golf game involving those disgusting easter treats, niebla
if you can imagine...
have you ever seen what they do in the microwave?
cause
no!!! i bet its glorious though!
it's amazing
Wouldn't a dyslectic Aussie be an ousy?
does anyone have a clue for ca6/30 the 2nd one?
they get h u g e
that would give me so much satisfaction. my mom is probably the only person in the world who eats them
hehehe
dyslexic ;)
easter treats? Eggs?
thats ok i found it
hihihi, Ata... ty :)
no, sprite. peeps!
Ata, is your icon your own work? It is nice!
i wish french words worked.... i've got at least three
peeps? I am pretty sure we don't have them here. We have eggs with easter. Real ones and chocolate ones and sugar ones...
yes, it is :) something based on "Watership Down"
I thought so, Ata. Great... as usual :)
you're not missing anything, sprite. marshmallow covered in sugar. grossssssss.....
we don't have peeps ...they are horrid marshmallow animal things
and shaped like little yellow chickens and pink bunnies
Argh... forget I asked, froelica, LOL! That sounds terrible!
clue for co5/16 please?
yup!!
beast - more than co 4,7 sing.
got it, anyone still need it
thanks katusha
YW
po5/16 makes me want salmon! or eggs....i think i need to eat (guac, cheeto, po5/16)
I still need both, hehe.
exactly halfway, so I'm off to bed - nite all!
nite jillibus
Night jilli
Night jilli, sweet dreams!
Salmon! Now that's an idea! I am planning to make a special dinner tonight with the kids. Let's have toast and fish for en6/18. :)
now that's making me hungry!
sounds great, sprite :)
does anyone have the ha 6 & 5
They enjoy that so much. They even want to make a menu, lol. And I hate cooking. Ah well, I love enjoying their fun, so it is a great deal.
i think i am the cause of 53% of the accounts of babble obesity. i'm always talking about food.... causing people to eat.
I have one ha5/16, someone who mows and dries grass.
LOL froelica. You are in good company then :)
good, then its not just me (my conscience has been cleared) *as she eats a buttery english muffin*
thanks sprite, thats the only one, now i am looking for the 6
The ha6 is another name for the white sturgeon (beluga) more food!
Worse still, they now have peeps for Halloween
Great, the fish is back :)
for every holiday...i swear i saw christmas peep trees last year!
eeeww.... mkl. are they orange???
thanks fmitch!
Some are, they also have black kittens
hauser
Oh yeah. And white ghosts and orange pumpkins
Very close Niebla
change last letter niebla
man. so do all peeps end up in the garbage like mine? i think they're a complete novelty now, with no intention for consumption
almost niebla
Kind of like fruitcakes at Christmas?
heep
If that is the case, we will have them in holland soon, froelica. Seems we always are imitating the States.
Sorry. Wrong box
what are peeps??
yeah! but my stepdad marinates them in Wild Turkey for about 3 or 4 years, then eats them.... i think its an excuse to get horribly drunk!
good luck, sprite!!
Beast, froelica told me: "you're not missing anything, sprite. marshmallow covered in sugar. grossssssss....."
hehehe...
eww, i don't like marshmallow to start with
i quite like the wild turkey idea though
yeah, i guess if you have to eat fruit cake you might as well be drunk!
i love fruit cake!
have you had Haribo marshmallows, Sprite? peeps taste like that
am going to a cocktail party tonight, should be fun
oh my gosh! i think you're the first i've known of, mva!
hopefully i might meet a nice male there
No, I stay away from that kind of stuff. Now chocolate... chocolate would be something entirely different, lol.
got to go now, have to eat - all this talk of food!
do you think they'll have wild-turkey-fruitcake (marinated for 4 years) as shots, beast???
what's wrong with fruit cake!!!
maybe not
more fruitcake is what i say!
Don't normally like marshmallow except in hot chocolate. HOWEVER,went to the Jelly Belly factory and had some fresh made. MAN. You could jump into it nekked
at christmas we have cherries, marinated in something and covered in choc, yummo
If you see a nice man eating marinated fruitcakes, it might be froelica's dad, Beast.
pens
wow, maybe its a UK thing..... fruitcake is generally viewed as a joke in america....
lol mkl
Crud. Did it again
fruit cake is *gorgeous*!
lol sprite
yup, sprite! and he'll be drunk by then!
thats ok mkl we all have that one
Just retype in the other box and all is well again, mkl :)
i have 10 left now, and am really struggling
My family loves fruitcake. They call it yulekaga though.
hehehe! hey snpp!
They eat lots of wierd stuff though. Like lutefisk. ewwwwww
Hey froelica!
good god. i had that once. never EVER again...... *shudders*
op 6/24 anyone?
what is the meaning of the oh word?????
It's like fish jello. Sooooo wrong.
op + short form of hello + not coffe but **a
thanks fmitch
yeah, fish has NO place in the realm of all-things-jiggly
thnx fmitch. who'd have thought?
fish jello?!?! mind boggling
Yeah, I think Norwegians are kind of self hating. Nobody actually likes it, yet every year for the holidays...
po 5 that you don't do to eggs
just like fruitcake... christmas really must be a time for self-punishment
cha, cha, cha ch4/6! (the ad jingle is stuck in my head now...)
I think it's punishment for pigging out on the good stuff like christmas cookies.
oooh and lefse!
yeah, everybody has to pay the price, i guess.. last year i tried to see how many thanksgiving dinners i could have from leftovers..... i had 8.... needless to say i gained 15 pounds.
the pounds are all gone now... just in time for this years try!!!! mwa ha ha!!
Help. Anyone with a clue for the te5/16 or the te 6/27?PLEASE
sorry mkl am still looking for them
would love a clue also
me too
maybe a clue for se5/16 please?
If you have the se5/16 (Indian soldier) just change the 1st letter
i have the se5/12
The holidays just wouldn't be right without the annual retiring of the skinny jeans.
Good morning all. A little grid for the weekend
India Indian? Or American Indian?
haha... yeah. save 'em for october is what i say!
Indian Indian at the time of british rule
Got them, thanks FMItch.
aahh i have five left and think i am goin nuts trying to find them
Morning Haz, neat size grid with some good words to make it worthwhile
good morning haz:)
pe 4,5 the first one?????
Try using the ending (last two letters) of the opposite of a girl with the small green vegetable letter in between.
Hello FMitch - just getting started, but it looks interesting.
thanks fmitch
hmm.. anybody have the bottom a?
katusha change the last letter of the 1st pe4/5
It's how you would write h (ai5/14)
Froe - :H:
but I need the first pe 4,5??? change the last letter ofthe others???
hmmm.... angb.... *feels dumb*....
te 5/12& yo5/16 to go, clues wold be much appreciated thanks
a plus something you scratch
ahhhh... thanks :)
te5/12 - do you have the Indian dwelling?
got it, thanks - it was an easy one that I couldn't see!
ty haz
one left now yo 5
yo5/16 just change the first letter of ho5/14
You're welcome beast - the fencing sword is also within that word.
Googled Lutefisk and here is the start of a recepie to inspire you (not): Feeds 10 people Pre time about 2 weeks Ingrdeients: 1kg dried fish 100g caustic soda 30 litres of water
yeah fireworks, thanks for all the help everyone
Yup that sound familiar. It really stinks up the whole house too!
Congratulations Beast!
anyone need clues?
blarrrgh
urf, lutefisk is foul
congrats beast
any ozzies around to talk footy with?
back home you could buy it precooked at the grocery store. It's still stinky though.
will hang around for a bit to give clues
that reminds me of a quote from "so i married an axe murderer" ( even though lutefisk is not scottish) : "i think most scottish food is based on a dare...."
lutefisk must have been based on a dare
and icelandic food ...
haha totally
se 5,16???
Congrats Beast missed you finishing was on the phone
thanks fmitch
se5/16 clued earlier, indian soldier, i looked it up in a reverse dictionary
My mom went to Norway to visit relatives and she said they didn't even know what it was.
or if you have te 5/16 you can swap the 1st letter
its just like how i wont eat spicy food ever since i learned that spicy food originated as a way to disguise spoiled meat. no more cajun for me
but it tastes sooo good
ewwww. That's too bad, I love spicy food.
i know, i'm missing out.. but.... eewwww
Could you imagine a babble grid that only had food/drink related words in it!
they dont use spoiled meat anymore, you would be safe
Any meat being served in a restaurant should have been though meat inspection and therefore be okay. The emphasis is on SHOULD have been.
wow fmitch that would be cool
That would be fun!
EXACTLY haz.... it SHOULD be..... but i don't eat meat anyways, so it's doubly disgusting to me
I would probably be able to do it easier
lol sarah
i agree
hi fmitch
Hey sarah
I'd love to find chimichunga. It's just so fun to type.
I've just found a nice connection between Mr Blythe (ch4/8) and the boat (ya5/18) - do you remember the name FMitch?
any clues before i go, i am off in 2 mins
I do Haz!
Hurrah! Isn't it funny how some names stick in your brain?
Was it Gypseymoth?
it comes from loving sailing :)
ok cya everyone, have fun
I think that was Sir Francis Chichester? I'll have to google.
Bye Beast
night beast
gypsy moth was francis chichester
Loving sailing? From the travel sickness queen?
British Steel was the name of the boat he went round the world in, lovely romantic name
yeah ... I just don't do it very often - its the one thing I miss ... but my boyfriend from ages past was in the NZ Americas Cup team abd he started me loving watching sailing and sailing - when pumped full of seasickness tablets!
Ah! That explains it Atalante. And I've just googled him, he was the first man to go round the world the wrong way - 1971.
actually, though, small boats aren't too bad. I can't even step on a ferry though
I'll be on the high seas on Monday and Tuesday. Well, the Irish sea to be exact. I have to take my younger daughter and her stuff over to Edinburgh for the new term. Third floor flat, again!
and British Steel? wow, what a name! wonder who sponsored him!
how long is the crossing over to Scotland? is it to Stranraer or however you spell it?
I'm going Larne to Cairnryan on the express ferry and it takes an hour.
I was wondering when the Uni run was going to start Haz.
only halfway there.... too sleepy to continue... night guys
Night froelica
Night froelica.
Fireworks for me. Off to put the boys to bed. Night all
happy babbling :)
ohhh that's not bad ... I have a nasty feeling I'm going to have to face a ferry soon - friends are coming over from the US and want to sail over to Ireland ... but I'm not sure whether they want to go to Blefast or Dublin yet
Night froelica
The ferries are a lot quicker and smoother than they used to be. But still quite expensive compared to flying. However, with the amount of stuff we have to transport there is no choice.
Good morning all = back again for the final lap
Anyone got a spare cargo plane they can lend Haz?
Good morning spellit - I've been wondering how you've been getting on?
good morning spellit
Oh listen, after Kenya, I'm not keen on stepping into a small plane too soon again!
good morning all
OK thanks - op was Thursday and my wife has come through brilliantly. She looks fine, now the wait for the results
dear spellit best wishes and fingers crossed.
That's great news, spellit. I'm sure you're both relieved. Hopefully all will be well with the results.
Millie went to see her yesterday which gave her a great lift
Haz I am impressed that you flew in that small pane. More than I could have done
morning all, stuck on 2 pe5 and sy4 help please and thank you.
I can imagine, spellit.
FMitch - I had little choice! And having endured African roads, it was the better option.
sy4/6 - think of the song sung at New Year
lol african roads can be distinctly *interesting*
African roads! I travelled 15 miles and it took 3 hours in Cameroon
haz got that one it the other one i need, thanks anyway.
We were in potholes that were higher than our 4X4
The roads were unbelievable! I dread to think what it would be like in the rainy season.
sy4/8 short form of an STD
guaco

Bye FMitch - have a good day.
why is my cat so obsessed with my paintbrushes?
brb
That's a sentence I will never have to utter in my life! Maybe the cat is jealous of them or else wants to play with them.
thats me done maybe i can get some housework done now lol have a good day everybody:)
I think its teh playing thing ... every time I get them out she jumps up onto the table and Stares at them!
And oh look, Mr Blythe's shout is there (ah4/7). Does she just stare at them or does she ever try to take them away?
Bye jean, have a good day!
she just stares at them then tries to sit on whatever I'm painting
Some artists would probably encourage that, but I'm guessing you're not one of them!
I dont mind ... just not when the paint's still wet :P
how many word have you got left kez
has Miki been on?
Yes, he was on earlier.
HE miki is a girl i know her in real life
it's pronouced mick-ei
Well, that's me told.
but still thanxz haz
ok, I have 3 left, and I am going nuts....te 5,16, te 6,27 and se 5,16.... Help!
There was a clue earlier for and Idniam warrior - se 5,16, but I don't get it.....
te5/16 - a table for serving te. te plus a small round vegetable letter, then the ending of the opposite of girl
se5/16 is formed in the same way.

thx Fran for pe, what a dill I am
Pfff, I keep seeing heresy. It is driving me bananas.
yw andree!
lol andree, I though you were cluing and started looking for pickle
my middle name is in the grid and it keeps distracting me.
i don't have any of the 7's. got any hints?
what is our middle name
sepe
blood, ch7/40, a baby chick is a ch*****
no pickle today Pappou
ch7 not more expensive but
Ch40: bird that makes a certain sound Ch7: swindler
ch7/40, one who ch6/27s
Pappou: that is spelled differently :)
de7, becomes more fathomy
I know
thanks everyone!
good morning all - nice clue, fran!
I figured you can't get to the a to make that word but it still sounds like it
yw bloodaxe
thanks wolvie! good morning
what can i say, I teach kinder and we do alot of invented spelling, LOL
hi Wolvie
hi Wolvie
hi wolvie
and when in kindy its cute to invent spelling
don't you hate it when you keep trying words for a tile that you've already finished?
not so cute when you see teenagers who can't spell
Sure do. Happens all the time
Before the fireworks I even managed to keep entering words after finishing.
or you spend 10 minutes searching for a word and you already have it
not so cute
good morning Katrynwise
that must have been fun sprite! did any of them ever take?
Nope! But I kept on trying, lol. Until I realised I already had all the words.
clue for ep 5/16, my last I am SURE i have tried everything
Any clues for the 7s?
I also remember a couple of times when someone made stats and the total amount was one more than the grid would accept. We ALL kept on looking :)
andree, ep5/16 is a period of time
andree: a century.
matty, scroll down, we just clued all of them together
thx sprite and Fran
andree, rhymes with the tick "tock" of a "clock"
FIREWORKS
yay, andree
yay andree!!!!!
congrats, andree!
wtg Andree
Congrats Andree
I have two of the three 7s - the little birdies, the become more fathomy - what am I missing?
the swindler, Ch40
another ch7/40, one who ch6/27s
as you get older[male] you voice de*****
Ch6 is C + what you live in. CH7 is person doing it.
Sprite, that's it.
Thanks
Never heard of the word, though
me neither matty, monkeys found it for me!
It was clued earlier, that is how I found it. New for me as well.
must be a cross between living in one and choosing one
A not so expensive thing to live in?
okay - let's see if the icon updates
coffe?
does anyone have a clue for the last ca6, 30?
* aka 'coffee'
yep. :-) fran's says the theme is what you can't live without
Pappou: same as the ones before, but with another ending. Ending means "like this"
penny, it's an old word for horse
ty
Oh, forget my clue, just found another ca6/30 and the one I clued wasn't the last.
did i clue the right word? or is there one after that?
You clued the right one, Fran :)
I'm still looking, trying to figure out which ending I haven't used yet
penny, try small island + utilize
thank you, I was looking in the wrong direction
Nope, forget my clue about the ending, Pappou. It is like utilizing a small island
Lol, gmta :)
I was trying to build it off the island
Pyrokinetics :) Any more clues needed?
okay - my last ca 6/30 is the ancient roman ca...way, sorta - a different take on it - is this the horse one too?
yay sprite!!
Well done Sprite!
congrats, sprite!
yay sprite
sprite, the ca6 you clued...does it build off the island also?
Nope Wolvie, you need the horse one.
No Fran, it builds of the reason-one Ca5/14.
ah - thanks, sprite - that did it for me. finally got it
nvm, found it!
How many ca are there?
They are anagrams :)
got it just as your answer came up sprite! thanks!

thanks wolvie
hi inge. :-)
good clue but french father plus vowel has no definition!
Hi Wolvie!
the ha 6/24 is the caviar one, or where some caviar comes from - type of fish!
well no wonder I'm monkeying, Amyvon
is also a part of those alpine short pants. :-)
is it really a word??
Amy - babble thinks so. :-)
can someone dumb the ha6/24 clue down for my peanut brain?
alternate spelling for home, using ha, then add a consonant at the end, seano
HI all, need help with the 2nd ch7 have the one that builds on the ch5 (what birds do)
lol...i hear ya sean
well that ch is elusive...maybe I should take a break
me too peri
Ha! thanks Wolvie. apparently i have a peanut brain as well.
peri, start with word that means one who makes a choice, then change the second o to a u
Take the h5 & 6 combo and add c to the start for the ch6 & 7 combo
erm...i thought i asked for the clue to be dumbed down!!
the other ch builds off of another word for home
Wolve, just monkeyed the other ch7 before I saw your clue, so proud of myself
seano - take your ho 5/14, use ha instead, then add a hump consonant seano
cool peri!
yay got it..it was german for house then+ a cons
ty Wovie and fmitch
fireworks here
congrats seano!!
thanks fellow cluers

TY Charm but i'm not using list yet so don't know what to ask for! enjoy Mum!
'enjoy' and 'mum' don't go together in my experience. she's coming to rework my front yard because she doesn't like it!
I'll be happy to clue if I can before I go. Charm, what a nightmare - top tip - live 3,500 miles away from family - it worked a...er...charm for me!
de6/24 i already have "increase"
maybe she doesn't like the way you iron and could do that for you!
another ending to that increase word....
More underneath, as it were, Axe
i think that's the one i have.
She's mum and I don't mind her coming if she comes to enjoy herself and the baby. But she comes to 'improve' me. sigh.
To make underneath (as it were)
Charm, can YOU improve HER? A taste of her own medicine?
Bloodaxe = the de6s are different versions of the de46/....
ah...thanks matty and charm.
got it
No, she's perfect (ask her).
HAHA!
LOL charm
My husband's like that sometimes.
And my 15 year old daughter is like that all the time
oh, let's not get started on men who think they're right all the time!
They just haven't found out yet that NO-ONE is perfect!
Well, on those uplifting words, I'll go do my poor best to be a good hostess. <exit, stage right>
bye Charm!
Well, I'm outta here. Hubby will be back soon with the shopping.

well i'm from North Dakota, but I'm in Morocco for school at the moment.
what school is in morocco

Not too bad Jeannie

The other pe4/5 words include to look closely/member of British nobility, plural writing instruments, and emotion that is stored is pe**
yw cathyar
yo 5, 16 anyone
yo5/16 a plural way of writing you

pineapple?
ybtw way I never heard of that word before! just monkeyed it
pineapple?

MANGO?
papaya?
last 3 letters are the fruit... it is a 3 letter word
Fruit rhymes with opposite of girl.
i still don't get it
that is the right starting letter Enom
phewf...got it, but i think it actually ends with a diff vowel
It's actually a mispelling of the fruit using the sometimes vowel...easy sneezy!
omg, i so never even would have monkeyed that!
anks munner

got it! never heard of that! thanks all
Y'all are fun--remind me of when I used to teach middle school.

welcome, silentwind
i'm new - what is monkey?
monkey is typing letters, hoping to hit on a word
got it cy!
and welcome, beth
monkey-typing is also called noodling
or at least it was, in the earlier days of Babble
op 4/5: 1. to unlock 2. unlocks

how to play this?

(is that the 2n'd?)
how much word do you guys found?
a-ha! I
silentwind, at the bottom is a link to Angelsong's page......it has all the info you need
flosey - I am sooo thick - can't find it!
I'm past halfway, time to get the Lickety LIst. For those of you who are new, check out the links at the bottomw of the page - lots of hints there to get you started
misspell the boquet of flowers
'bout where U are, Krys -- but the kids call. Have a great Saturday -- hope the boy isn't hungover when he wakes!
i'm going to try this one without a list..........lol, see if i can do it
hi all. the two links to start with are 1)angelsong's babble page and lickety's babble clues
or one might refer to a single flower as a po*** - misspelled
good weekend to you too, jfarber
going over to sudoku soon anyone need any other clues?
sudoku's nice and easy today
FIREWORKS!!!!!!!!!! thanks flosey!
woooooooooohoooooooooo Enomis
congratulations Enomis
so, everyone has different character set?
how many op's?
i don't quite get the question, silent
everyone has the same grid. some people who have memberships have stats at the bottom of the page which tell how many words there, what letters they come from in the grid, etc
but we are all working on the same puzzle
silentwind, there is a theme to each day's puzzle so we find an icon that signifies that theme
silent - everyone plays the same grid - today there are 106 words to be fond. The size differs everyday
Good morning Babblers. How is everybody?
hiya Scrabbler
hi!
great thanks scrabbler, good morning to you
Hi kalea
would you guys suggest upgrading to pro - why?
Hi flosey, Krys
still dont get the point
I just answer 2 words
How many op's are there, please?
the point is to find words of 4 or more letters, and meet great people in chat
beth - the stats panels you see under the grid go after 2 weeks, but it is a personal choice
don't worry about it silentwind, just make the words and it'll become clear
it IS much harder without the stats
silentwind - have you ever played boggle? you are looking for words that can be made in the puzzle using letter tiles that are adjacent
hello, everyone - how many op's are there?
breakfast time for me, have a great day everyone
nan - there are four
not sure, nan.....i haven't finished the o's yet
Hi cnan there are 4 op's
thanks, krys
what is op?
Bye Flosey
I have 4 op's, 2 oy's -- what am I missing, please?
first 2 letters of words, silent
an oh4/5
silent -- words beginning with op
thanks, FMitch
silentwind, if you go to bottom of this page, beneath the grid, you'll see a list of "Friends of Babble" click on Lickety's Babble Clues, that should help you
yw :)
anyone need a clue before i go to lunch?
I have 4 se's and 3 sy's, what am I missing, please? (sorry, bj's list isn't posted yet)
only 2 sy and 1 sn
uh, lickety's list only has two sy's
thanks, enomis

lickety's list is up cnan, not that we mid clueing you
sn 4 or sn 6?
sn4
sn 4/6
I don't want to see a word list, fmitch -- just the numbers list
good bye all of you see you tomorrow!
got it, enomis, thanks
thats fair enough
bye enomis, thanks for the help
huh? I don't get it. You want to know how many but not what order they come in?
is there more than one h 6?
Hi FMitch, I've found someone with the same icon as you

phantom words ...... gollywhopper and FLOCCIÂNAUCINIÂHILIPILÂIFICATION
think of the mexican dip snppngtrtle...
if it's any help, it's a plant
yeah, that flocci word is one I think of all the time :)
Thanks fig! I think that's the one combo I hadn't tried
i'm a cloccinaucinihilipilificationist.
same for me, turtle.
took a while
what are those? besides impressive?
i like the shorter more challenging puzzles...
i like littler grids too
krys, what are what?
really little, like 40 words
cloccinaucinihilipilificationist and FLOCCIÂNAUCINI HILIPIL IFICATION
FLOCCIÂNAUCINIÂHILIPILÂIFICATION F loccus \Floc"cus\, n.; pl. Flocci. [L., a flock of wool.] 1. (Zo["o]l.) (a) The tuft of hair terminating the tail of mammals. (b) A tuft of feathers on the head of young birds. 2. (Bot.) A woolly filament sometimes occuring with the sporules of certain fungi.
(i just typed wrong)
gollywhopper sounds british
still not a word I'm likely to use often. :)
i'd say 'oh, that tuft of hair..."
flocci is for tuft, nihil is for "end" ..darn latin
"That zebra is really floccinaucinihilipilified"
?
i don't even know if it applies to zebras. maybe lioins cuz they have that tuft at the end of their tails. and cerebus monkeys. and poodles when you shave them.
FLOCCIÂNAUCINIÂHILIPILÂIFICATION = an estimation of something as worthless. This is the longest word in the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. Interestingly the most common letter in English, E, does not appear in this word at all, whilst I occurs a total of nine times. The word dates back to 1741. The 1992 Guinness Book of World Records calls flocciÂnauciÂnihiliÂpilification the longest real word in the Oxford English Dictionary, and refers to pneumonoÂultraÂmicroÂscopicÂsilico ÂvolcanoÂkoniosis as the longest made-up one.
oh.. i hadn't thought carefully about zebras. I guess their tails are kind of skinny, huh?
i mean guenon mokeys.
meme: i guess we use two different dicctionaries. but i can see where that silly tuft would eventually translate into something useless.
if you ever find that word in a babble board, i will send you fifty bucks personally.
would have to be a 6x6 board though.
I defer to your brilliance and concur that my definition is as worthless as the word.
done! thanks for all your fine company today.
yay krys10
woohoooooooo Krys
congrats krys10!
Congrats, Mzzzzzz Kry10

gu 5/18: ga + *** hardware store, I think that chain has gone out of business, then use top playing card and change last vowel
I *need* to share this with you! :D
Don't let that horse eat that violin cried Chagall's mother But he kept right on painting And became famous And kept on painting The Horse With Violin In Mouth And when he finally finished it he jumped up upon the horse and rode away waving the violin And then with a low bow gave it to the first naked nude he ran across And there were no strings attached Lawrence Ferlinghetti
*snap snap snap*
I particularly like that you have to specify that the nude is naked. I really hate those fully clothed nudes.
oh my gosh........funny, Nef
I can dig it
*snaps fingers*
lol Vicuna
well, he could have been nude under his clothes, vic
like that nef! lol vicuna!
Aren't we all, LeslieAnn. Aren't we all.
well, can you imagine the first 3 lines sitting in my brain and the rest not coming right out? Now you know why I had to sahre! :D
comando!!
nude is symbolic of man's struggle against man. Naked nude implies the plight of man against himself and nature...I thought everyone knew that.
i have tried in every possible way to make ah 7 what am i doing wrong???
I was really *into* Ferlinghetti in the 60's!
there is no ah7
oh toss the fish i found it!!!
What you're doing wrong is looking for an ah7. There is none.
oh you meant 4/7 sorry
aknitter think of pirates greeting each other
yes there is anchors away !!!! ;) leslie ann
that is def. fish worthy i needed a calculator to get to 7
Ah, I was certainly surprised to hear you'd found one!
gosh Hi there..............ya learn something new every day
all you cool cats and chicks are getting with the beat! it's a bout time!
some are too excited to be really cool though <snaps fingers slowly>
*Fireworks*

hi oggy!
Cheerwine is a soft drink found in the south. Somewhat hard to describe, but a cherry flavor.
Diet cheerwine for gwenski...coming up

I can splurge with ice cream if the soda is diet, right?
hmm, sounds good.

Hey oggy!
OK I'm missing an HO - got ho4.5, 4.6, 5.14 *3,6.24, and 4.7 *2 - wat am I missing pls.
if the soda is diet it cancels out all of the calories you eat for the rest of your life
*adds a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream to gwenski's before passing it!

same as 5/24 different last letter
mkl - person who does ca 5/14

te5/16 - has the same ending as the native Indian soldier, if you have that (se5/16) - the te6 is the plural
Thanks much people. Got fireworks. YEAH. Love you all
congrats
I just happen to need the se5/16 also....:)
The se5/16 is formed by adding the small green vegetable letter, then the last two letters of the opposite of girl.
se + young man but different first letter...very simalar first letter
thanks...
You're welcome Jee Whiz.
yw
my last one is po5/16...I have the one that is illegal hunting...can you please help with the other? Thanks.
po5/16 - is another way of saying what the po4/5 writes. Think of a small bunch of flowers and insert a vowel
Thanks again Haz...I appreciate your great clues!
You're welcome - and does this mean fireworks?
It does!!!...I am blinded by the lights!
Congratulations!
Thanks...It is funny how you have to watch the fireworks for awhile.
wtg jeewhiz
They have certainly been one of the most popular features of the revamped babble!
thanks arlene
I agree.
We used to have to imagine the fireworks. The real ones are much better.
congrats
We are a simple bunch of people. We work our brains to death, neglect our families, and we are satisfied, not with big money prizes, but pretend fireworks!
Haz, is your birthday Jan 5?
No - we write our birth dates the other way over here, so it's actually the first of the fifth month (May)
Okay, I was just thinking that you and I are about the same age. My birthday is December 26 though.
Hi everyone!
Hi Natasha
Can anyone clue the de7, please?
hi

Good evening everyone
:-/ gotta remember where that curser is *blush*

Just peachy! It rained last night, and not a drop got in under the new skylight! :-)

Where in the house is it?
hi Dorens
AI5/14? Any clues? PATY.
hey hodag
Oh -- the skylight in my "office" turns out to have been leaking ever since our home was built. It went down between the roof and the ceiling and into the outer wall. When we pulled up the roof a couple weeks ago to replace it (had to wait for funds) there were rotten beams and everything...
kenny, sounds like the letter after g
hi beebee
yuck. So anyway, the external work is done and all that remains is to remove all the affected plasterboard and insulation in the wall and ceiling, but that can be done from inside. :-)
Thanks, Natasha. Was looking for it and couldn't find it.
LOL -- that's the short version!
kenny- a+ you gotta scratch an i***
oooh, yuck! glad you're getting it fixed!
Stid, that's awful. I had the same thing happen in a bathroom. Water damage can be unbelievable in its breadth
hodag- is that your cat? it's beautiful
yes -- and in "my" space it's really a bad thing with all my allergies. *sigh* I am just glad we found it before the roof buckled from the rotten wood!
I am really hoping the same hasn't been happening at the kitchen skylight...
I listed my email in the pro. would love to hear from people.No dateing interest!!!
I hope you see an uptick in how you feel, allergy-wise. Mold alone can do a real number.

personality types
my partner is that too, melon
meyers-brigg or something???
is there some kind of a personality test somewhere?
you can do it online
I think I did that a while ago but I've forgotten
where Ping?
I took the test at a career counselling office some years ago ..
go to stid's section on babanon and she gives the link there - once you're done, add your letters to the survey she's doing
i'm INFP and pisces, probably the flakiest combination possible.
it is a myers briggs assessment
LOl melon
I found one:
http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JT ypes2.asp
we did them at work. i remember a quip: "Js file & Ps pile." - one look at my desk...
okay, torgone was our first ISTP...
lol - too true, melon ..
melon, if you are representative of INFP/pisces, I think you are not very flaky....
YAY sukee (I just saw you finished)
you don't have to live with me.
I see someone else posted their myers-brigs so I will wait until after storytime to update the stats at BA
i think judy went to do this assessment
i need a clue for ha 5.16, please
actually i only appear flaky, it's my clever disguise of my massive intellect.
Okay. I'm an ESFJ.
I'm INFJ...Judging is the strongest according to this
Introverted is 2nd

YAY Annie!
hooray for annie!!!!!!!!!!!
The morning dawned bright and clear.
bravo, Annie
thank you everyone......wraps blanket around myself
Esmeralda was up before everyone, and had the fire in the kitchen blazing, tea made and special breakfast cake in the oven before Gilly came in.
She smiled as her younger cousin entered, and handed her the bowl of batter for cream puffs to stir.
Gilly put on her apron and they talked about the children, the men, the state of the road through the village and whether the weather would hold out until the end of the harvest.
Esmeralda looked out the window briefly and smiled, "I think the weather will hold -- but I wouldn't dawdle if I were Peter and Paul!"
Gilly laughed, "As if they dared, Helena staring down their necks!"
Anna came in with John, Sarah on her hip. They set the table and sat down as Polly, Meg and Doris trouped in."
Andy followed, his shirt mis-buttoned and the tails hanging out. "Where's Nan?"
Esmeralda gestured with her head toward the back room. "She came down in the middle of the night. I expect she's ready to wake up, if you want to get her, Andy."
Paul wandered in, snagged a piece of cake and sat on the back steps to pull on his boots. John followed with two cups of tea and some sausages, and they walked to the barn to hitch up the horse to the wagon.
It was a beautiful day, with just that hint of sharpness to the air that ripens the last of the fruit on the trees and sends the flowers into their last glorious bloom.
Stid, are you typing out of your own book, making it up, or typing it off of an existing book?
The twins came down last right behind Gray and Olivia (who were still in jammies), looking almost as well put-together as Andy. Their beards were scruffy and their hair stood on end, but their eyes were clear and their smiles were bright.
zzzzlevi, she is making it up
NO WAY!! :O
Wow, incredible Stid.
Olivia ran straight to Nan, who set her up on a chair with a napkin and a "bidge" piece of cake.
Gray solemnly accepted the seat his grandmother had vacated and helped himself to a bit of cake and some tea.
Meg was right behind him with a towel to catch the drips.
"Gray solemnly accepted the seat his grandmother had vacated" That's your vocabulary? It's almost too good to believe.
So well said. I am nothing like that.
Soon, the "menfolk" and Doris and Meg were on their way to the harvest.
Thanks for the compliments, Leviathon. I am having fun.
levi, she's done more than 30 chapters - they're posted in babanon if you want to catch up
You're making this up as we go, or reading off an existing book you have written?
You're making this up as we go, or reading off an existing book you have written?
Nan had wanted to go along, but Esmeralda suggested that she could use Nan's help putting together the usual poutices for "harvest burn" as it was called.
gu 5 help anyone?
Ava and Cathy came through the door about that time, and Cathy swept up Olivia and a swinging hug as the little girl toddled over.
gu 5/18: like what bat droppings are called but with a 2 pt letter for the last consonant
gu + first letter of alphabet + **-pilot
thanks stid and levi!
(also very sorry to interrupt, but I only have the two left and am stumped on both. po5/16, not the one like illegal hunting, and pe5/12)
Anna turned from the sink, "Hello Grammy -- did you sleep well?"
ibroadrunr, interrupt at will! the story is more "filler" than anything...
po 5: a vriation on the word for art of rhyming
much better than filler!
ty, inge!
"Yes, dear," sighed Ava, sitting at the table and reaching for the bowl of peas that Polly and Gilly were shelling.
pe 5/12" Little green veggie and emrgencey Room
*emergency
agreed, much better
Esmeralda looked up from the recipe card she and Nan were consulting and eyed Ava cautiously.
Stid, sorry to bother but are you making this up as we go, or reading off an existing book you have written?
she's making it up, levi
the emergency room goes before the last vowel of the veggoe
Oh my lord...
making it Leviathon, I don't type well enough to copy from anything!
:O
"Ava," she asked gently, "Did you have that dream again?"
Ava nodded, "I don't want to talk about it, Esmeralda."
fireworks, and a story. beautiful. :)
Nan watched the doctor and her grandmother carefully, as did Gilly and Cathy.
YAY ibroadrunr!
bravo ibroadrunr
Anna was just finishing at the sink when they heard a crash from the other room.
op6/24?
She and Polly rushed out and came back with a very shame-faced -- and grimy -- Gray.
Wow, at first I thought you were typing all of this off a book!
Polly grabbed the broom and dustpan while Anna marched her son outside to the well.
op6 = "a diabase in which elongate crystals of plagioclase are embedded in pyroxene"
uuuuuhhhhhhhh.. in english?
She stripped him down and he shivered in the cold morning air as she dumped a bucket of water over him to wash off as much of the ash as she could.
o + biblio***** (lover of books), changing the last consonant
Gilly laughed and took the soft soap from the kitchen and a large towel. She had been through this routine so many times...
thx broadrunr
yw!
Polly soon emerged from the front room with the ash can (half empty) and the dustpan (full) and the remains of the vase that had stood on the table near the comfortable chair.f
Ava grimaced as she noted the grime at the edges of Polly's skirt. Though it was her working skirt, still it would take some careful brushing to get it clean before it could be washed.
Polly went back to the front room again, and after a few minutes called for Nan's help. Together, the girls managed to roll up and pull (through the kitchen) the carpet that went before the hearth in the warm months to the back yard.
10 left...
Gray's howls of unhappiness echoed through the yard and came in the kitchen window.
me 2, cat
any help with te5/16 & te6/27?
Eventually, he returned with Gilly, wrapped in the towel and much cleaner. She sat him in the chair nearest the stove and washed her hands. There was a meal to prepare for the harvest workers. The rest of the cleanup could wait.
Anna came in, having done her best on Gray's clothes and hung them on the fence to dry.
first three from the one before it, plus a child plays with a t**
Ava pushed the bowl of peas toward Gray, "Here. You're old and strong enough to help shell these. Watch how it's done..."
thx ibroadrunr!
now for the sn and the sy's
Esmeralda and Nan excused themselves and took their ingredients and a large bowl to the back steps to sit in the sun while they worked.
go cat2 go!
go cat!
sy 4/6: old lang sy**
Soon, Adam arrived with his little cart, having heard Gray while he was hitching up.
When he saw his great-grandfather, the little boy's face crumpled up and the tears started again.
sn 4/6; anagram of sy4/6
Slowly, he told his tale, "Grampy, there was a pretty bird on the mantel, and I wanted to look at it. But -- I wasn't big enough to reach it!"
Adam nodded sagely and picked up a knife to start cutting the root vegetables Ava pointed to.
"I though, if I stood on the table I could reach it!"
"But I leaned over and BOOM!"
sy4/8 = a venereal disease ... :(
Olivia looked startled from the corner where she was sorting dry beans for the next days dinner.
got em! er...uh, the words that is! ;)
5 left

Adam laughed, "BOOM, huh? Did you ever get to the bird?"

firewords
Gray shook his head. Gilly made a strange face, and stood up. "I'll get it for you, Gray, but you must always ask if something is up where you can't reach it with your feet on the ground!"
po 5/16: one is how to cook eggs, the other is another word for rhyming art, po 4/5 is the prson writing rhymes
YAY Ping!
bravo Ping
whoo hoo Ping
thanks for the clues!
Gray's face lit up and he nodded. "I promise, Grandmother!"
Nan poked her head through the door. "The doctor says we need some little jars to put the salve in. May I get them out of the pantry?"
Yess! Just completed the puzzle without a single clue given from you guys, neither "lickety".. You have no idea how good it feels :D
yay ping!
done, cat2>\?
Polly stood, "We keep medicine jars in the shed by the wood pile so we don't make a mistake, Nan. Can you find them or shall I help?"
congrats leviathon!
congrats Levi!
Thanks! :)))
Nan smiled confidently, "I can find them, thanks!" And her head disappeared.
YAY Leviathon!
looking for last po5/16 (not the eggs)
and ep6/16
Gilly came back to the kitchen with the little bird in her hand and gave it to Gray. He inspected it and put it to his lips.
The bird gave a strange, funny warbling sound -- like children playing in a distant field.
po5/16 -- a small bunch of flowers, reversing the 3rd and 4th letters
er ep5/16
Adam tried it next, and got a deep, mellow sound -- not unlike a quiet snore.
ep 5/16 means a sepcific period of time
Ava laughed, "It sure seems to know you, dear!"
po 5 = old timey word for poetry, po + op of difficult - the a
*sneaking off to bed* nite all. cu tomorrow
cat, ring around the rosey pocket full of po****
Anna stood up with Sarah, and excused her self, "Naptime. I'll be back once I have the baby down."
Adam looked at the shadows on the window frames and stood up. "Looks like it's time to take lunch to the fields again. Coming, Gray?"
thx ping and lbd...that one was giving me a rough time
night judy
night judy, feel better soon!
night judy
"I have to put on clothes Grampy!" He jumped up and ran upstairs after his mother.
ep is another word for era
fireworks!
now for that blasted ep5/16!
ep5 = e + way to cook an egg (po5 word) - a
good going Robin
whoo hoo robinski
bravo Robin
yay robin!
Polly and Gilly helped Adam load the cart with food, and Esmeralda handed him a basket with little jars of salve. Soon he and Gray were headed down the narrow path to the other side of the farm.
YAY robinski!
of course! thx ping! done!
WTG Robin
hooray for cat2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whoo hoo Cat2!
bravo cat2
Esmeralda looked up at the mountain as she headed in. A little cap cloud balanced on the tip. And a flock of birds circled over a promontory just visible under the shadow.
would luv to stay, but have been at it too long and have to prepare and print the church bulletins. later taters!
YAY cat2!
She shook her head and smiled at Nan who was watching her from the stoop. Together, they went in, to help prepare the next meal.
**that's enough for tonight, my eyes are wonky**
thx all for your help! :-)

actually, it was the way i pronounce things that gives me ideas for clues, whether they are right or not...who knows! lol
cool icon lbd
thanks MG...again very literal, can't live without air or water
what's the theme for today, anyway?
something you can't live without
that would be my hubby and I don't a picture on my computer of him
time to get tomorrow's icon - Vases
*have
vases...or vahzes...lol
MG, ahh that's sweet.
hi, i'm back, got Kozy Shak pudding instead of ice cream.
I liked chj's "can't live without" -- laughter
We did it!!!
it's true lbd - 34 years this aug - he's a gem
i didn't see chj today. darn would have enjoyed seeing his icon and reading his bio
WTG kyigu!!!
Fireworks, kyigu???? YAY!!!
Finished. Fireworks (now I know why y'all always say "Fireworks!" Is there a handshake?
hey everyone!
whoo hoo kyigu
hey hk!
Thanks Mayne girl. I had help. My word freak husband (and logic puzzle afficianado).
taDay kyigu!
MG...34 years! wow! i'm on 18 1/2 and yes, he's my gem too
taDah, that is.
I have one of those, too, kyi
Now we will collapse. Another day.
stopped in to see if anyone needed any cluing
hi helen
I like taDay, too!
hi hk - it seems there are many cluers here, maybe none as good as you?
that's great lbd - so many relationships don't seem to last
clues, clues for free, get your clues here, get 'em while they're hot !!!!!
i'm always impressed with those who make it past the 3rd year.
OK, i'm stumped by the co5/18 that is next to last - got the words on either side of it. (I just know I'll be head slappin' after i get a clue)
lol jili- hmmm, sounds like jili is buttering hk up for something - what do you need?
too true! the first years are the hardest
MG - I would have had my late hubby as mine too but I've had to live without him for 10 years now, after 49 years of happy marriage. So I had to pick something else!
you mean co 5/16?
and totally wowed when i meet people who are past the 25 year mark
ta, hk, but I finished this morning!
yes, hk
oh jilli - I know - I think you're amazing!
co 5/16 - more japanese fishy (spelt diff)
Jilli! 49 years! that's truly remarkable!
or more shy melonhead
oooooooh -{headslap} - oooowwwww!
Well, all my old friends are into the 50-year range of married bliss now!
be careful melon - might shake something loose
mel - that's why is used the japanese fishy clue - want the fish too? LOL
well, not always bliss, but our generation seemed to weather the storms
hi Jill! how's Tarquin?
no, Mayne, it all fell out long ago!
ep5?
Yesterday was Tom and my 16 years of togetherness, exactly 15.5 years since made it legal.
oh well then....
not always bliss, but that's what relationships are about, ups and downs.
lots of years melon
If we last to more than 20, it's entirely his fault!
congrats Stid!
Hi stid - she was on a bit today but I missed her - I see she's offline now, dammit. When I saw she WASonline this aft, apparently she had minimised in order to look for recipes.
ep 5/16 = geological time period
lbd-- that's right. Not always bliss (sometimes bliss seems unreachable) but always love, it seems, and usually interesting...
hi, jilli - my folks were married 51-"derful" years before we lost mom.
nevermind got it!
stid...always interesting! and communication is key too
tx anyway - i'm going thru the clues in alphabetical order
Granny and Grandad were married 59.5 years. They were like Tom and me -- "comfortable" but not over the top lovey-dovey.
Interesting is really important!
yeah, melon - it's sad - we had expected to make at least 50, but there you go. HUbby went to sleep one happy night and didn't wake up - what a way to go.
That's what gives me hope for our future as a couple, we can talk. Usually we talk after I have a "hissy fit", but ... :-)
Jill -- that must have been so hard to wake up to. My heart aches for you.
ohhhh, jilli.
On the other hand, at least he didn't suffer for months or years with whatever illness (I hope).
Yes, it was tough but we muddle through ;)
that is very sad, Jilli. My neighbor has been married almost 60 years... she died last sunday.
oh lbd, I am sorry --
No, he never suffered - got a bit tired at times.
oh, lbd - how is her hubby bearing up?
thanks Stid, she was a lovely lady, and her husband is as Jilli said, muddling through. he's 84 years old!
gotta go - back at the flip
later helen, see you!
There are lots of very lively 84-year-olds around here!
I think 80 must be the new 60... LOL or maybe 50!
c u soon, hk - and I'm going to look for a vase - bbs
warren has copd, we were afraid we'd lose him this summer, not his wife!
brb
I think you're right, stid!
oh boy.. copd is awfully hard to have, that stinks.
I think I'll change too, unless someone wants a clue?
brb then!
he's on oxygen, but not 24/7. what's worse is he still smokes!
hi, again. Bulletins done. My mom has COPD, too. Not on oxygen 24/7, thankfully. However, she had a mild stroke last Sunday evening. If it's not one thing, it's another. She's doing well, tho.
She's only 67.
i'm glad to hear your mom is doing better Cat
thx lbd
was soory to hear about your neighbor
thx, she used to tell the funniest stories about how she met her husband during the war.
wondering what is copd?
okay, icon up!
i forgot the technical meaning, but it's like emphesima (sP)
oh that's hard
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, lots of info on it at Medline
hi guys, does anyone have a clue for de 6/24?
emphysema is the old word for it.
de 6/24 = de 4/6 + er
also info at w ww.copd-international.com/
or +en
de 6/24 (there are two) builds off the de 4/6 that is like "high" for a building, but refers to a hole... add a vowel and a consonent
apparently there is also something called Chronic Bronchitis that falls under copd also.
I think it's chronic obstructive pulmonary disease...
hi, all, btw!
hi liberal
I have known other people who kept smoking when they had emphysema. Never understood it. I can't imagine being so addicted to something that shortening your life is worth it...
hi, cat!
hi liba!
hi libarebel!
hi, MG!
what a beYUtea-full cup!
hi libarebel....boy I can't spell tonight...
:D
ah got it, thanks guys
ty, stid-- it's what's in it... :)
how many more do you need, aud?
pretty pretty flowers stidmama:)
thanks Mayne!
stid... me too. mom continued to smoke until 2 years ago. used laser treatments to help her stop. she'd smoked over 30 yrs and is smoke-free for 2 now.
i've got 8 to go
*tapping foot expectantly* Can hardly wait to see what sort of vase Jill finds -- she's so good at icons!
go aud go!
good for her, cat2! I am sorry about the stroke -- hope she recovers well from it (I know that many people do)
Goooooo aud!
thx stid...prognosis is very good...starts rehab tomorrow.
wheeee, 13 mins left.. cutting it fine today.. -)
I will be thinking of her. Attitude is a big part. Let her know that current research shows that recovery can continue over many months, so if she gets a good start and then continues with home therapy she should do fine.
And in my experience, my elder child had significant brain damage at birth, some of it didn't manifest until recently. We work with him as needed -- and now almost 14 years later he is picking up skills that have been difficult.
hi all!
Our bodies are remarkable!
hi Fran!
Hi Fran!
how's your remarkable family?
stid, was that question for me?
aah can someone help with the 2nd ca 6/30, ep4/6, ha5/16, op6/24, po5/16, te5/16, yo5/16? :D
yes Fran --- sorry
Hi everyone
thx stid...i'll let her know...we are wonderfully made aren't we!
hi metaleather! those recipes you put up at Babblers Anonymous are mouth-watering!
hi fran and metaleather
ca 6/30 - my old ca**** (horse)
stid, my kids are awesome!
hi ML and cat2 and MG!
op6/24 op + "hello" + cross letter + second vowel
ep 4/6 = ep + ** ha (funny)
never doubted it for a minute, Fran! :-) is the one in school yet - the other is too young, I know.
ha 5/16 someone who cuts long grass for cattle
my son will be 4 in February and we haven't decided on preschool yet
yo 5/16 is like slang for "you guys" think of the dwelling word only spell it with a y instead of an h
yo 5/16 = REALLY bad grammar for 2nd pers plu
po5/16 a way to fix eggs
Preschool was a tough one. My mother and mother-in-law kept saying the kids needed it for "socialization." but the kids I knew who had been in preschool didn't exhibit the social skills I thought were appropriate.
ok great thanks guys!
te 5/16 = te + Hawaiian dish (change last vowel) te 6/27 is plural
I"m glad you liked the recipes stid. Any time you'd like more, let me know.
I have since met some kids from preschools who were good examples! but it's too late now... the elder one hits high school next year!
go aud go!
thanks metaleather!
i've still got te 5/16 and the other po 5/16
lol stid! my sisters and i didn't go to preschool and we socialized just fine.
te5/16 te+hawaiian dish -last vowel + sometime vowel
lol stid! my sisters and i didn't go to preschool and we socialized just fine.
po 5/16 rhymes with bunch of flowers and means poetry
