12:21 am

wtg jilli

12:21 am

good job... probably one of the easiest 7's i've gotten in awhile

12:21 am

ironical, isn't it nan?

12:21 am

THERE it is! i was beginning to feel like a dufus.

12:21 am

la - i know! it seems i was just marking all these dates on my calendar & now they're all past (including all the accompanying showers, not to mention at least 2 babay showers that i remember)

12:21 am

Of course it is a word. One that enable doesn't know.

12:22 am

i think it's actually doofus, as much as there can be a proper spelling

ahem, that's doofus, elphaba ;)

12:22 am

i did thar on purpose :)

12:22 am

now now elphaba... I don't have it yet, does that mean I am a dufus? Doofus? Whatever?

12:22 am

Yes, doofus, and it has been in the grid before.

12:22 am

er, THAT

12:22 am

one of the morning radio shows a month or two ago were talking about weddings and had some guy call in that had been in 8 in one summer. that is crazy.

has it ever been in the grid? anyone?

12:22 am

this grid is clearly going to my head

12:23 am

does the co7 have anything to do with the co6/24?

12:23 am

Okay, you are right, I am

phantom: cacodemomania

not a bit gadget.

12:23 am

gadget, i like your cat

12:24 am

Thanks! That's Willis...

12:24 am

Ow, mine was cacaodemoniamania, Swill!

12:24 am

You may not gget the 7 if you're not thinking straight!

12:25 am

Gadget, and any other cat-lovers, have you ever read a book called The Abandoned, by Paul Gallico? In the UK it was called Jennie. It's wonderful.

12:25 am

sprite, is that the fear of evil chocolate?

I always have been a tad short-sighted

12:25 am

Gadget, no . the co 7 is nt connected at all to the co 6

12:25 am

Exactly, Fran! Which I control by eating all chocolate I see.

12:25 am

lol fran

12:25 am

doofus was in the grid on Dec. 20, 2003.

hmmm doofus is almost on this grid!

12:26 am

Swill, you don't have phantoms, you have hallucinations -lol!

12:26 am

anyone have those top of board I words?

12:26 am

I know Jennie! Beautiful! Made me cry, but oh, did it picture the life of cats brilliantly.

12:27 am

12:30 am

there are 88 words today manjari

12:30 am

Question for the Jewish people: ARB told me yesterday that when one says 'boker tov' you can reply politely with 'boker or'. Can one say 'laila or' in response as well or is that rubbish?

12:30 am

so how much did u find leslie

12:30 am

sorry two singers

gotta butt in one more time - french ror sweet, sweetums!

12:30 am

12:31 am

mixed up

well, or is light so it wouldn't make sense, unless you are wishing someone a nightlight ;)

12:31 am

french two isn't even in the grid!

12:31 am

jilli: it is not french for 2. It is two couples singing, with mixed up vowels.

12:31 am

thanks melon

12:31 am

LOL melon! Thanks for telling me - wouldn't that have sounded weeeeeeird!

12:31 am

no,,,,can see properly,,,,i knew what i meant sorry

It is a nasty little killer, lickety. We will need your clues!

12:34 am

12:34 am

Sprite, there is no expression "Laila Or". Only Morning of light (Boker or).

12:34 am

Lickety, it looks to me like a little wicked one

12:35 am

Gadget, your mind must be mixed up!

12:35 am

Gadget: start dead center,go down then up leftish

12:35 am

its small - fun? not so sure

Well, I got 48 so far... no clues. I don't think I can find anymore without lickety's help.

12:50 am

and like the bird, an architectural piece. Hi Everyone

12:50 am

one six is a type of auto pl.- co6

12:51 am

hello lynxxx

12:51 am

Hi lynxxx!

12:51 am

one six is easy, of co.......

12:51 am

phantom - excuse

12:51 am

and one is a protective circle around something.

12:52 am

another six is people who give blood-do

12:52 am

I believe another six is a type of fallen woman..do

12:52 am

p5 is what girls carry their crap in (i know we're not talking about p's but yeah!)

12:52 am

I think an ousey is a dyslectic Aussie.

12:52 am

and the 6 that was done to the priest

12:53 am

this six is really, really weird- second chapter of the Bible to start and then fizzzling out with a dumb ending

12:54 am

And I am all forsex.

12:55 am

forsex is a phantom, sprite... fursex, however, is not

12:55 am

lol sprite!

12:55 am

LOL Lesley!

12:55 am

oh wait i take that back, looking at wrong o

12:55 am

one six is impossible to clue, so I will just say you cross what your eyes are trying to do with the print, and ends with the same letters as a type of artificial human....fu6

oh, forsex, i would give up babbling...

12:56 am

Well, that was a brilliant clue, jai, got it!

12:56 am

thanks jai!

12:57 am

ho6 has a double consonant in the middle and then the opp. of out

12:57 am

also cupsex

12:57 am

this is more fun than finding my last 28

12:57 am

for which you can win the sexcup, Lesley?

12:57 am

haha!

12:58 am

just don't get slapped with a sexcod

12:58 am

io6 - impossible to clue so I will make a bad pun...if iodine was trying to get out of Egypt.....

12:58 am

hahaha

12:59 am

you may want to join a sexorg

12:59 am

but not get a sexdog

oooh!!!!!

12:59 am

od6 smells because it has an extra vowel

12:59 am

I can handle the sexorg... or at least I hope so. But I draw the line at sexdog!

12:59 am

speaking of sex, orgies is a phantom.

1:00 am

I like sexorg....where do I sign up?

1:00 am

at the sexdor

1:00 am

Any clue on the da 5/12?

1:01 am

Found it.

1:01 am

a guys name for short followed by 2 vowels-da 5/12

1:01 am

i did too thanks to you asking arb!

1:01 am

Funny, how asking for clues can open your own eyes. Happens to me all the time.

1:02 am

1:02 am

Night Gadget

1:02 am

G'night, Gadget!

1:05 am

1:05 am

1:06 am

night monkey!

1:06 am

hehe sprite

1:06 am

all the cu's start with the same 3 letters

1:06 am

oh, your divine weather, fran!!! Beach near you?

1:07 am

except the last one

1:07 am

there is a magic ho5 and an intensely looking fo5 that rhyme.

1:07 am

I have a cu4/7 witha diff 3rd letter

1:08 am

i just tried that magic one for kicks! turned out to be a word!

1:08 am

you are right...I didn't scroll up far enough!- fried brain here....

1:08 am

phantom - excoriate

1:09 am

I hate to say I told you so, but... ;) Fran

1:09 am

Did anyone try "Flip Words"?

1:09 am

phantom - forceps

1:09 am

I did, jai. And I bless and cu5/14 the one who pointed me to it...

phantom: coniferous

1:09 am

Any hint on the ex 6?

1:10 am

<tee hee> told you so! It's good practice for Babblites!

the ex 6 is another ohantom: exodus

1:10 am

Close, Samantha. Change last 2 letters.

1:11 am

It's like Homer Simpson was trying to leave Egypt....

1:11 am

got that ex6, thanks!

1:11 am

pfffffui, 5 more. Now where...

1:12 am

got the ex. How about a clue on the fu 6

1:12 am

Did you try to Latinize the end of co4/10?

1:13 am

ARB: start with a very ugly but too common word for sex. Drop last letter. Add ending for artificial human being.

1:13 am

fu6 is a bad word-sounds like + end of type of artificial human

1:14 am

Sprtie...great minds....

1:14 am

that's a word?

1:14 am

another tpyo....sorry, Sprite

1:15 am

:) np jai!

1:16 am

fu6 is a type of seaweed of genus fucus....

1:16 am

I do have that co5. I am still missing a C though. And an F. And a G.

1:16 am

Just don't say it aloud....

1:16 am

low scoring game this, lucky to reach 1000 points I reckon

1:16 am

I cannot believe the words I type in which are accepted

1:16 am

I am at 1057 with 3 words missing.

1:17 am

Do you have the co that is a chorus for short? 4 letters

1:17 am

1090 points in all

1:18 am

Yep, got that one too...

1:18 am

Will go find the others first, then I will know how many letters...

1:18 am

church singers minus the "h"

1:19 am

got the co that rhymes with a dog-like critter?

1:19 am

pl.

1:20 am

It is a C4 I need. Hang on, my monkey is trained to find it.

1:20 am

3 left

1:20 am

phantom after the fact: penguin

1:27 am

Samantha, this is a truly demented grid...do not pass go, go directly to the list....

1:27 am

Thank you! I heart my Scrabble Dictionary. There were a few doozies in here that I wouldn't have gotten without looking them up.

1:28 am

pu4/7 and pu5/16, sounds like a wierd way to spell throwing up

1:28 am

It is a tough grid.

1:28 am

pu words are a really wretched color

1:28 am

pu 4/7 and 5/16 is a color. It's greyish purple.

1:28 am

thanks colhad

That did it Jainniah, but I SWEAR I monkeyed that word together. Guess not.

1:43 am

co 5 the first one or co 7 would be great

1:44 am

co5 is a DNA marker

1:44 am

1:45 am

co5 is co & **nald duck.

1:45 am

Yep. And thanks. Would be happy to clue someone

1:58 am

hi svso!

1:58 am

How does this website make any money? One fee for a lifetime, and no advertising

1:58 am

hi fran, long time no see

1:59 am

angb, that star thing you posted at QP was weird, i looked at the scores that day and couldn't figure out how you got a star either! i'm glad you get to keep it though! :-)

1:59 am

i have a new computer now, so i don't have anymore excuses to play

2:00 am

mkl, did you enjoy hawaii?

2:00 am

If anyone here likes Lord Of The Rings, you should check out the website at www.bendshire.com They are building a shire type community in Bend, Oregon

2:00 am

Fran, has mikey been around

2:01 am

scatty, do you mean mikeyinberlin?

2:01 am

yes

2:01 am

LOVED it Fran, and thanks for remembering. We went down in the shark cage. Had about 15 to 20 Galapagos sharks swimming around us. Really cool after you got used to it

I've seen it, mkl, and it looks gorgeous but a tad out of my price range

2:01 am

i don't think he's babbled since around the time i started, i only know the name from the chat.

2:02 am

awesome mkl!

2:02 am

Yeah. A bit pricey. But one can dream

What's the theme today?

2:02 am

sam, it's weather.

2:02 am

can everyone see my weather shot?

2:02 am

If nobody needs any help, I'm off to bed.

2:03 am

i know he did quite a right up on my e-mail, but i would have thought he would have kept playing, maybe me just doesn't come and chat anymore

2:03 am

this is the weather we were having when mkl was in town.

2:03 am

night mkl

2:03 am

night mkl!

thank you fran. your weather shot is lovely

2:04 am

that could be it scatty, i know he's never been on when i am.

2:04 am

does anyone need any clues before i head off to bed as well, i have been sat up all night playing babble

2:04 am

not i scatty!

yes scatty

2:05 am

thanks sam! it's a beach far away from waikiki, so still clean and pretty.

the go 5 is my last one

2:06 am

brb, grabbing a bite to eat.

I swear I've monkeyed every possible combination but the right one

2:06 am

go5, think the brown animals that the hunt chase and change the first letter

No way!!!!! Fireworks on a made-up word!

2:08 am

i monkey typed that word as well

well, it's late and I am really tired so I was doing the math as though it were a six letter word

I was monkey typing 8 point combinations

Though this is a tad embarrassing to admit

2:08 am

what time is it over there, its 8am here

it's 2 AM here, and I'm in central Texas

Texas actually encompasses three time zones; I'm in the center one

2:09 am

Its 8pm here!

We encompass three time zones, by the way, because we're BIG. Really truly a BIG state. There--I just had to get that out; it's traditional.

2:10 am

i was meant to be in bed over 8 hours ago so i'd better get going, the trouble with me is i love giving clues

Texas--Bigger than France.

2:11 am

It's 12:10 am here on the west coast of Canada - and Fran, yes, I saw your lovely beach a while ago - is it near you?

2:11 am

what time is it in New York then

just past midnight

sorry, sorry, I just gave you seattle's time--just past 4 am

2:12 am

i'm glad we only have one time zone

2:12 am

oh tiny tiny today, how is the grid today?

2:12 am

New York is 3 hours ahead of here, so would be 3:12 am now

because you're tiny. Not like Texas, which is BIG

Have I mentioned the sheer size of Texas?

2:13 am

Yug is all I can say M3

2:13 am

i thought all of America was one time zone, see babble is educational

America is five or six time zones

2:13 am

it would really confuse me

jill, you're right, I was confused by daylight savings time again, sorry

well, most states are only in one time zone, and it's pretty easy to keep track as you drive if you have a long way to go, so you really only need to keep track of local time

2:14 am

the only time change we have is in the sumer when it goes forward an hour to catch up with europe, then it goes back again further in the year

2:15 am

i think there are 25 times zone's scatty x

to make it more confusing, scatty, some states comply with daylight saving time (DST) and some don't

2:15 am

jesus

there are 24 total, M3

24 hours, see?

2:15 am

And we are the first one here - our East Cape see the sun first!

2:16 am

as you can see i flunked geography

2:16 am

Same in Canada I think Saskatchewan is the only one of our 10 provinces which stays on Standard Time year round

2:17 am

sam depends what wiki you read, wow 9 time zones in america alone. how do you all keep up? x

2:17 am

scatty, click on my icon and read the profile!

2:17 am

my sister in law lives in Aukland, and i always get the time wrong, i get it confused with my sister who lives in Sydney

well, M3, I was just thinking of the ones in the lower 48. Of course if you include Alaska and Hawaii there are several more

2:18 am

Hi all

2:18 am

hi lynxx

2:18 am

yeah it does depend on whos version you take., good morning all x

2:18 am

There's some 2 hours between us - depends when

and the answer is--we generally don't keep up. if there's a specific place that we have to know, we memorize the difference, but for the most part we pay no attention. I haven't the foggiest idea what time it is right now in, say, Phoenix

2:19 am

hi lynxxx! hi mthree!

2:19 am

Good morning all.......a clue please for AN5/10

2:19 am

hi flask!

2:20 am

flask, think of a vegetable that makes you cry

2:20 am

flask - hi - an5/10 is the one like the smelly veggie

2:20 am

thanks girls!

2:21 am

For a laugh I entered the name of a Melbourne hotel which is well known for music - but got the es4.7 taken !

3:09 am

There was Gemini Jim and Scorpio Sal They was livin' by the Golden Gate Freezin' their nose and wearin' leather clothes And dealin' every way but straight. They had a Leo dog and a Capricorn cat, And everything was goin' fine 'Till into their life on a starless night Come the man who got no sign. Look out, Momma, he's headin' this way, One eye yella and the other one gray, Lookin' for a soul, but he won't get mine. He's the man who got no sign. Well he blew right in, sat right down And rolled himself a righteous smoke. He lit his roach with a lightnin' bolt, He took a toke and spoke. Said he was born in an astrological warp When the moon refused to shine On the **** of nowhere and nevermore. He's the man who got no sign.

3:09 am

3:23 am

a triplet of adjacent nucleotides in the messenger RNA chain that codes for a specific amino acid in the synthesis of a protein molecule.

3:24 am

3:25 am

my last P word is pu5/14, something to put loose change in, men call it a wallet, but women call it pu5/14

3:25 am

what are the stats for the royal dog? not familiar with that.

3:25 am

anyone seen my canoe !!! think ill float to Tesco's ;-)

3:25 am

co5/16 - a breed of which the Queen is very fond, visitors less so.

3:25 am

co5/16 Fran - breed of dog favoured by our Queen

3:25 am

Spot on Douglas

3:27 am

Yes, Douglas, you're right.

3:27 am

ho5/16: a pretend surfer

3:28 am

I spent a year in Birmingham, Warwick 40 years ago, and remember them fondly...

3:28 am

I'm not sure whether they are still being manufactured or not.

3:28 am

then there are the mongrel cu4/6 which can be extended into a hex

3:28 am

Bye jg

3:33 am

bye jg!

3:34 am

bye jg

3:34 am

I have two o's so far, but not the o4/9

3:34 am

After last nights storm, lightning seemed to be the only possible icon

3:34 am

go5/24, go and get some axes and chop off the "a" to get the answer ;)

3:34 am

hi exwren!

3:34 am

o 4/9 couple of beasts of burden

3:34 am

Seeya Jg - glad some-one was from Melbourne!

3:34 am

Douglas, think biblical plough animals but change the normal last letter

3:34 am

colhad, said a wo-ord!

3:35 am

That is so not a word!

3:35 am

hello Fran, I would much prefer your weather to ours at the moment

3:35 am

ohh sorry, didn't realise, just thought that was a cool clue

3:35 am

Morning ExWren, very appropriate icon, hardly slept last night due to the storms

3:35 am

GIve up the protests, Douglas, enable thinks it is.

3:36 am

bye jean

3:37 am

a blood do5.12 Cheese

3:37 am

Don't forget to pluralize lynxxx's clue

3:37 am

thx lynxxx i actually do that.. sheesh

3:38 am

my last twenty-three are being ornery, going to the list.

3:39 am

fu6/36?

3:39 am

go5/24, go and get some ax4/9s and chop off the "a" to get the answer ;)

3:39 am

oh Fran !

3:39 am

lol, there you go colhad!

3:39 am

Cheese - has robot ending

3:40 am

I forgot the ax4/9 was there too ;)

3:40 am

you can't talk me out of it lynxxx! i want to get to sleep before 2am!

3:41 am

Exactly Fran, why sp5/14 the list?

3:41 am

This is highly confidential; This is just between us two; But Mrs. Toucanella told me, Horton's talking to a Who! A Who?! Who's "a Who"? Well, my dear, that's just the point! There isn't any Who. Horton's brain is out of joint. For goodness sake -- A Who? Now, I know you won't repeat this; strictly entre ****; Of course. But Mrs. Tusic Toucanella is an unimpeachable source. And she says irrefutably - it's indubitably a fact... Horton's schizo-witsa-fistic. In other words, he's cracked!

3:41 am

You can do that with a C Colhad.

3:42 am

The french word, I take it, Douglas? no4/5

3:42 am

Mais bien sur, Haz!

3:43 am

That probably takes the prize for the longest clue of the day!

3:43 am

It took a little while to find the lyrics to "Mrs. Toucanella Told Me..."

3:43 am

Or maybe I shouldn't have said that. There are those of a competitive nature who play babble.....

3:44 am

The alternative clue (sadly short, I know) would be - no4/5 French we.

3:44 am

phantom handout

3:44 am

You are probably right on both points Haz. Much longer than that and the log will start hic up ing.

3:45 am

Douglas - there's another French word - ru4/5

3:45 am

But that could also be the English word for regrets

3:46 am

haddock pls, a nice fish if one doesn't have Alaskan king crab legs available (virtual word)

3:46 am

But then no4/5 is also the English word for common sense.

3:47 am

fu6/25 robotic ending hmmm... still hmming....

3:48 am

think andr*** ( and go down) Cheese

3:48 am

If you have the robot ending, then SEE what letter you can use to join the beginning and the endind.

3:48 am

ending, rather.

3:49 am

do you all have the other dog? - not a pedigree like the other - C4

3:49 am

got it fu6/36 not what i said... thx!

3:50 am

resembling or related to seaweeds of the genus Fucus. The return of the dreaded Robot Seaweed!

3:52 am

do5/12, do6/21, people who give blood

3:52 am

If a positively charged particle is a cation, why isn't a negatively charged particle a dogion?

3:52 am

6 left here- ask me

3:52 am

There's nothing negative about dogs.

3:53 am

more a cat person

3:54 am

and organs, Colhad

3:54 am

Have you found the ladies of ill repute? do6/36

3:54 am

Death of a D... -- Rex Stout I think?

3:54 am

do5 and 6 Haz

3:55 am

i found that right away haz, one of my favorite scrabble words, along with quean.

3:55 am

All I can think of now is a cross between 'Come on Eileen' and Bryan Ferry!

3:55 am

lol

3:56 am

Need a hint on the ladies of ill repute...

3:56 am

I think Dr_God needs to call in the Ministry of Vice and Virtue...

3:56 am

'Come on Eileen' and Brian Ferry doesn't inspire you?

3:56 am

do6 midnight runners

3:57 am

We'll have no ladies of ill repute in this grid

do5 weenie dog nickname

3:57 am

I was unfamiliar with that term

3:57 am

ok old theaters: the Rialto, the R--- change r to d

see, no ladies of ill repute here

see, no ladies of ill repute here just a canine

3:57 am

I now listen to that song on youtube

3:58 am

I played "In Every Dream Home A Heartache" at Crossword Bebop a few days ago...

3:58 am

Hi everyone, a small grid, Yay!

don't speak too quickly PT

3:59 am

don't like crosswords much, or word searches, probably too old fashioned for me, but give me a good Boggle or Scrabble game, I'll play them to death

3:59 am

There are two words that were in yesterday's grid, two sp's

3:59 am

LOL, I just tried to enter food, it didn't take it

3:59 am

4:04 am

Its a fibre - used a lot for doormats Cheese

think singing group without the letter that looks like a ladder

4:05 am

You've got a couple of coconuts!

4:05 am

or - change the last letter on the preceding word

4:06 am

4:06 am

Douglas - there's old French money in there as well. ec4/6

4:09 am

Ah, oui, Haz, J'ai cinq francs!

4:10 am

It's a good thing monkeys don't have to know French!

4:10 am

That should be enough to buy you a cafe noir!

4:12 am

It's been in the grid before, but I don't recall seeing the extinct do4/6 before. Maybe FMitch does?

4:12 am

I'm getting hungry for some veal ****** blue

hello everyone... my nightmare has come true!! a grid full of C words!!

4:15 am

No I don't think we have had it before Haz

4:15 am

Hello mrpresident!

Hello Haz and Fmitch and Doug and lynxxx et al!

4:16 am

hi mrpres-- the really nasty c word is not here-- c*****n

4:16 am

Following the French theme don't know if you ahve apready mentioned the mushroom c4 Hi MrP

4:16 am

Greetings mrpresident

4:16 am

I hadn't, because I hadn't seen it - thanks FMItch!

4:18 am

Je ne connais pas the mushroom c4 FMitch

I only see the dog!

4:18 am

I remember that en Francais, the word for champion is a lot like the word for mushroom, champignon...

4:19 am

Douglas - think of your chest muscles, (shortened version) reverse the letters and plural it. It's a variety of mushroom

4:19 am

co7/48 no doubt has already been clued? it's one of my last two

4:19 am

good clue Haz

4:19 am

It has, Cheesenips. There is clarity all round.

4:19 am

Well, I learned something today...

4:20 am

I tell you, Douglas, we should be on the school curriculum.

4:21 am

I think that would be a great idea...

4:21 am

Not pro plus join, Cheese

4:23 am

Thunder is back and rolling around but no lightening.

4:23 am

Cheesenips, I'm sorry - I totally misunderstood you. I thought you were offering to clue co7/48 because it was one of the last you had found. I didn't realise you were asking for it to be clued. co7/48 is the opposite of to make clear.

4:24 am

it's ok haz... got it now thanks much haz and also douglas

4:24 am

You were co7'd by Cheese's post perhaps.

Haz, you had me looking for a co meaning clarity too!!

4:24 am

means even more now that i have it

4:24 am

Matey, there be sailors' affirmatives off the port bow...

4:25 am

yes my post was hmmm... obscure

4:25 am

Sorry - I've managed to co7/48 everybody!

4:27 am

Gimme a F***ing clue for ho6/27!!! Is THAT clear? (hehe)

4:27 am

That's the way to ask!

4:27 am

That's the next generation, multi-lingual Babble! Given the number of Scottish words in the dictionary, we practially have that nu!

4:29 am

ho6 = 1st 3 letters of the previous h5 + loud noise

4:30 am

Still raining and as dark as night, and some other poor beggars are having the thunder, can hear it in the distance

4:30 am

That's a strange word.....

4:30 am

Flippin heck - it's so dar here with the storm I've had to put the lights on.

4:30 am

Fireworks!!! Thanks FMitch and everyone!

4:30 am

4:41 am

it's not igor

4:41 am

You're asking me to count again?

4:41 am

or irod

4:41 am

fo4/8 would be a number. The one after three.

4:42 am

fo4/8 is what movie stars wear and get paint sprayed on them by PETA

4:42 am

concentrate or fo5/20 on the grid and you will find words. Also a word used in connection with cameras

4:42 am

yay! i'm done!

4:42 am

fu4/8 is to join together or, what has been replaced in the US by circuit breakers

4:42 am

Woohoo Fran

4:42 am

4:42 am

Hooray for FranMag!

4:42 am

4:44 am

io6/24 is start of a chemical (red stuff you put on cuts) + head l***e (plural of which is lice)

4:44 am

Especially when they were in the grid yesterday, Fran!

4:44 am

On Hawaii-Five-O, McGarrett would say "Book 'em *****." (vrnt splng)

4:44 am

oh all right fu 6/36 hmmm--- if you are really angry at a robot that looks like a person, you will say two words and then delete some of the middle letters

4:44 am

ix4/9 is kind of like the hairy-nosed pink dolphin we are so fond of.

4:45 am

i know haz! that's why i'm glad i didn't ask for clues!

4:45 am

Oh thats good Fran, I was just pondering how to clue that one.

The reason I ask is because Alex Rodriguez makes about 12 to 13 million pounds per year playing baseball for the New York Yankees.

4:54 am

Bye Fran

4:55 am

The Yankees were eliminated from the playoffs recently, and there is great weeping and gnashing of teeth in New York...

4:55 am

It's a lot of dosh which ever way you look at it. David Beckham is definately in that league and I am sure there are some other names in that league but I am not really up on such things.

4:56 am

It's important to have someone to blame when things go wrong, and Rodriguez is an easy target...

Valentino Rossi is the highest paid sports person as far as I know... but he is also a living legend

4:56 am

Also our San Diego Padres lost in the playoffs to the St Louis Cardinals and with less weeping etc due to less overweening ego going in

4:57 am

hello MRP

hi lynxxx!

4:57 am

Congrats to Trevor Hoffman...Lee Smith should be in the Hall of Fame, though...

4:58 am

TY Douglas and you may well be right re Lee Smith

Hooray for FMitch!

5:11 am

WTG FMitch

5:12 am

5:13 am

io6 = think the 2nd book of the bible but replace the 1st 2 letters.

5:13 am

well sort of

5:14 am

That was good enough, FMitch, thanks...

5:15 am

Reminds me of that Tom Lehrer song... When the air become uraneous... We will all go simultaneous...

5:15 am

16 words left...

5:17 am

I have two of the g's, but not the go5...

5:18 am

HAve you got the ox4/9? if so just add the g

5:18 am

That's a Dr. Seuss word!

5:19 am

I like to box, I like to box my ***

5:19 am

It should be, that's for sure!

5:20 am

Odin, I made shirt with you icon on it 2 years ago after all the storms. I still wear it once in a while for a good luck charm.

5:20 am

Great icon, pida...

5:21 am

Hi pida

5:23 am

morning everyone, I'm just getting up today, Ho's the grid look? 88 words, huh?

5:23 am

and thnx

5:23 am

Hey Pida

5:24 am

I haven't found an icon for today yet. But I do like Odins, Hi Odin

5:26 am

stinky British spelling...

5:26 am

Now now!!! : )

5:27 am

That wasn't a term of opprobium, but rather a deftly executed clue...

5:27 am

yes, just got that one too douglas

I couldn't find the od4 forever! that stunk!

5:28 am

suce

5:28 am

oops

5:29 am

ho6, anyone?

5:30 am

which one douglas?

5:30 am

sorry-there

5:30 am

there's only one-something you carry coal in plus a loud noise

5:30 am

There's only one, isn't there?

5:31 am

or the first 3 letters of the ho5/16 + noise

5:32 am

Got it! Thanks Eva, down to 8...

5:32 am

I believe that the Al-Qaeda guys wrote something about the din of war...

5:33 am

I keep trying pecod and thinking of Moby Dick-that was the Pequod wasn't it?

5:34 am

Black helicopters, Novus **** Seclorum, it was a full moon this week...conspiracy theories abound...

5:34 am

That's right, Eva...

5:35 am

novus **** seclorum?

5:35 am

Morning all. Had to wait for the thunderstorm to pass before I could turn on the computer. Small grid today!

5:35 am

small but nasty jac

5:36 am

Down to 6...the c and d on my tile stats are surrounded by a sea of dark gray...

5:36 am

also keep seeing gorgons where there are none

5:36 am

Hi Jacs, I've been living dangerusly and babbled and worked throughout the storm

5:37 am

They're behind you Eva

5:38 am

Merp just ate another mouse-the poor things are coming in for shelter from the cold and being massacred. You'd think word would get out.

5:38 am

And smelling radon where there is none...

5:39 am

So, me having found 9 words since I said Good Morning is false hope? LOL

5:39 am

and seeking succor when none is to be had

Is there a way to set fire to the grid?

5:39 am

Eva, does Merp bring you leftover offerings?

5:40 am

he often brings them live and wriggling to share and is very miffed by my lack of appreciation

LOL metal!! only if you finish!!

5:40 am

lOL metal

deep sigh... no flames for me then, not today anyway.... the same sixteen blank faces keep staring up at me from the grid as they have been for more than an hour now.

5:41 am

Eva - Tiggsy's the same.

5:42 am

and I don't know why he thinks he still needs breakfast after all this carnage

5:42 am

2 d's left...

5:42 am

metal - That's no fun! I'm still in the first throes of discovery.

5:43 am

1 d left

5:43 am

want to compare lists douglas?

not really the type to give up... just frustrated as all get out. a small grid is giving me more trouble than the large ones a few days ago

5:44 am

AHve you got the extinct bird d4?

5:44 am

yup

5:45 am

how about do4/11

5:45 am

1 left, the do5/16 after the do6/21...donuf? donui?

5:45 am

and two varieties of sweetness, and the things that sound like faeries, and putting out the fire and ill tempered and giving people and person and wall decoration

5:45 am

Un autre mot francais...

5:45 am

Good Morning Babblers. 88 words--I can do this!

5:46 am

j'ai deux mots francais douglas, une autre?

5:46 am

Douglas the do5/16 is the same as the do 5/14 further down the list but change the middle letter

5:47 am

Hi Scrabbler

5:47 am

douglas-the do 5/16 Irma la do___

5:48 am

Going to my happy place, and doing my happy dance...

5:48 am

5:48 am

Well done Douglas!

5:48 am

Hi Scrabbler.

I love Irma!

5:49 am

think I need to take a break. Back later.

5:49 am

See you later, Eva.

see ya later Eva, Merp

5:49 am

Hi FMitch and Jacula. I just read the chat and 88 words is deceiving, I guess.

5:50 am

I like your icon Douglas. It is supposed to snow here (I live in ski country) tomorrow and Friday! Yikes, I still have to rake leaves.

5:50 am

I'm up to 27 words now but, as I said, I'm still in the first happy throes of word discovery.

5:50 am

Thanks all for your help...

5:51 am

I have 3.

5:51 am

The next number is a word...

5:51 am

Bye metal, Congrats!!!!!!! Douglas.....

5:51 am

TY Douglas.

5:52 am

Don't forget to plural it.

5:52 am

Already done.

5:53 am

Hmmm... the 2 'i' words might be hard to find.

5:54 am

There is a Comcast commercial on ESPN with multiple centaurs looking forward to watching The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe...

5:54 am

Yes, jacula, I am looking at those and wondering what the heck they could be.

5:54 am

I keep seeing Ixodes which is a tick that carries Lyme Disease.

5:54 am

All I can see is Igor.

5:55 am

I thought Igor might be a word, but alas, no...

5:55 am

That is "Eye-gor"

5:56 am

(Young Frankenstein---LOL)

5:56 am

"I am a brilliant surgeon. I could do something about that hump." "What hump?"

5:56 am

"Abby Normal"

pronounced Fronkensteen

5:56 am

"Wasn't that hump on the other side yesterday?" "What hump?"

5:56 am

LOL.

5:56 am

"Frau Blocher" Neigh............

5:57 am

"Roll, roll, roll in de hay."

5:57 am

"What great knockers!" "Why thank you!"

5:57 am

(It's been years since I've seen it, so I hope I remembered the lines right"

5:57 am

ROFLOL. It is one of my favorite movies. It is time to watch it again.

5:58 am

In the Sunday New York Times crossword, one of the clues was "Snack for a horse?" with the answer "Hay in the roll." When I saw that, I thought about Inge talking about a roll in the hay...

5:58 am

LOL

6:00 am

"Will you get the bags, Igor?" "Soitenly. You take the blonde, I'll take the one in the turban."

6:01 am

hahahahaha

6:01 am

I seem to have started something here. LOL.

6:02 am

Good for you, Jacula. This grid is a mean one---very few "normal" words. My monkey is getting upset already.

6:03 am

Up to 35 words now - no i's yet though.

6:03 am

15 and I just brought up lickety's list. :(

6:04 am

hi all, i've got 34 words and I'm getting stuck now!

6:05 am

First word I spotted was co5/16 (the Queen's dog), not to be confused with the common cu4/6.

6:05 am

Hi kthdsn.

6:05 am

The list is helping. (Helping me to "cheat")

6:06 am

I bet the Quen's dog ya4/7!

6:06 am

TY Jac---2 more.

6:06 am

Add a letter to the mangy mutts to make a malediction...

6:06 am

Oops! I mean Queen. Sorry your majesty!

6:07 am

malediction----that is a big word, Douglas. Too big for me.

6:07 am

Scrabbler - it's said a gypsy's cu5/14 was put on the Kennedys.

6:08 am

Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved ***** does not come to rest.

6:09 am

anyone have the 7 yet?

6:09 am

TY Jac. Douglas, you are way over me--the caffeine drip has just started working and my brain is gaining consciousness.

6:10 am

yes - its a co word to befuddle

6:10 am

ty raga

6:10 am

There's the military co4/7 and plural. You can add a vowel for a type of 2-door car & plural that, too.

6:10 am

Well, I am befuddled.

6:11 am

coup

6:11 am

In the other box. LOL

6:11 am

Do you get that clue or should I present it in another way? LOL

6:12 am

a few more clues like that would be great!

6:12 am

I'll do my best.

6:12 am

There are a number of Frenchy-type words in this grid...

6:12 am

Thanks Ragalla. (For the 7.)

6:13 am

Hi everyone! Is this a meanie or what?

Some Spanishy words would be nice for a change.

6:14 am

How about English words used in everyday conversation?

Biltong, your puppie's here!

6:14 am

I didn't get the 7 yet.

oh, i've given up on those Scrabbler... Enable doesn't even recognize them

6:14 am

If you were born between two star signs, you were born on the cu4/7.

6:14 am

Hi, metal how are you?

6:15 am

LOL

6:15 am

Are you co7'd about the clues Scrabbler?

6:15 am

Yeah, like pooftah from the other day. No definition.

6:15 am

co7 = against + what gets blown sometimes in the light box

co7 "prisoner" + light the dynamite's * * * * ( fu4/8)

6:15 am

Not any more, Jac. TY

6:16 am

Scrabbler - It's used more in Britain. (pooftah)

i"m well Biltong, and you?

6:16 am

I'm not sure it's even used here much anymore jac

6:16 am

4 left ... clue for io6?

6:17 am

I keep adding 'y' to things. Doesn't work, so far.:(

6:17 am

Great thanks. Is that your handywork in your icon? It looks super.

6:17 am

this grid is drivng me potty

6:18 am

hi all!

not mine, just a picture I found while looking for new projects to start.

6:18 am

Morning Atalante

6:19 am

hi atalante! clue for io6 please?

I'll try to dig up something of mine and use it soon

6:19 am

Sounds like someone is beating hell out a dustbin outside! Wonder if it's a frustrated Babbler?:)

6:19 am

Yes, would love to see it, metal.

6:19 am

It could be me, Jacula!

6:20 am

io6 - first 3 letters like red stuff you put on cuts, last 3 letters goodness graci*** me

There's one piece I like a great deal... made up entirely of scraps of floss and decorative threads... varying lengths of them... it came out looking somewhere between geometric, primitive and just plain odd.

6:20 am

My monkey just found that io too.

6:20 am

Thanks Ragalla!

6:20 am

thanks ragalla!

6:21 am

Biltong - Is it the grid or your computer you're bashing the dustbin with?:)

6:22 am

Oh dear, I must get ready for work. I have 57 left and it will be a battle (and begging fest) to finish. BBL

6:22 am

lol, Jacula.

6:22 am

Bye Scrabbler

6:22 am

See you Scrabbler.

6:23 am

bye scrabbler

6:23 am

woohoo I just hit the half way point, 44 down, 44 to go

6:23 am

2 left and I think I'll let them sit for awhile while I take a mental break ... anyone want clues for what I do have?

6:23 am

48 down... 40 to go.

6:23 am

da 5/12?

6:23 am

have you got the other I ch?

6:24 am

I monkeyed the ix4-. "just one more word , just one more word." Am I addicted, or what?

6:24 am

Man's name + 2 vowels for the da5/12

6:24 am

Oh I just found the ix too

6:24 am

Thanks Scrabbler. AS soon as you said it was an ix4 I knew the plant straight away. (Not using a list yet.)

6:25 am

the other i is the ix4, kthdsn -- is that the one yo mean?

6:25 am

Oh, it's a plant?

6:25 am

ty, Scrabbler and ch.

6:25 am

never mind :)

6:25 am

any of several cyprinid fishes of the genera ***** and Brachy*****, of India and Sri Lanka, often kept in aquariums.

6:25 am

Scrabbler - ix is a type of iris.

6:26 am

Ty, Douglas. Now I can move on with my day in peace.

6:26 am

Is it a fish as well, Douglas?

6:27 am

Just found a smelly od4/5 now I've remembered the US spelling.

6:28 am

have you got the uk spelling too jac

6:29 am

Good morning, babblers. Thank God, a short one. Diving in.

6:29 am

Hello inge. Enjoy!

6:30 am

I have now kthdsn. Thanks! I'd got the long-faced words (d's). I hadn't spotted the British smellies though.

6:30 am

Hi inge.

6:30 am

Phantom: haddock. There's no 'k' for it.

6:34 am

32 left. Break time. BBL.

6:34 am

6:34 am

I'm gonna go too, lunch time :)

6:34 am

And everyone I missed earlier

6:35 am

see ya later, kthdsn and Jac

6:35 am

Done! Any clues before I go?

6:35 am

Raaaaaay!!!!! ch1212

6:36 am

fu 6/36?

6:37 am

fu6 = first three letters of the very bad word, + last three lettrs of what Data on Star Trek is

6:38 am

it's a type of seaweed, apparently :)

6:38 am

thanks

6:39 am

And for you non Star Trek fans, Data was a character who was an artifical human

6:39 am

what about ho5 - not the magicky one

6:39 am

ho + father

non Star Trek fan? there is such a thing?

6:40 am

Well done ch1212!

6:40 am

I know, metaleather -- I can't imagine any myself!

6:40 am

Happy babbling. BBL.

6:41 am

bye biltong!

bye for now Biltong

6:41 am

Not a trekkie either....lost on the Data clue

6:41 am

data in star trek, but also r2d2 and c3p0 in star wars

Data was an artificial person

6:42 am

Chiley, did you see Speilberg's film A.I. ? The little boy was an and****

a robot...

sometimes also called an andr* * *

6:42 am

Friday in Heinlein's book was one too :)

6:43 am

got it..thanks. I'm REALLY REALLY not a sci fi fan

ooooooooh, you had to use that film for clue? one of the worst movies ever made.

6:43 am

And of couse Asimov's 3 laws pertained to all of them too

6:43 am

LOL metaleather -- I have to say I really tried hard to find the brilliance but finally had to just agree ... not his greatest

6:43 am

down to my last 10 - 3 of them are co's - 5/14, 4/10 and 5/22 (not the little rowers)

6:44 am

drop the r from your chicken co, rag ...

it sucked. and I"m not one to use that phrase lightly, but it reallllly did, especially at the end.

go Ragalla

6:44 am

AI would have been a Kubrick film but for his death, and I can see how Kubrick would have made it darker and better

you're two ahead of me

6:45 am

add latin ending to your other co5/22 ... and then take first three letters of either co5/22 and add first vowel

6:45 am

on the subject of worst film ever, for me has to be saving private ryan - overlong and overrated

6:46 am

yes rag! And overdone too

6:46 am

and overacted :)

6:47 am

yes, and various other over-adjectives...

6:48 am

also struggling on the do's need: do 5/16, 4/11. 5/22 and 6/36

6:48 am

a wonderful do5/16 clue earlier was Irma la Do***

6:49 am

Then take first 3 letters and add the big scoring tile

that was a charming film.

6:50 am

the do5/22 and it's plural ... do + big scoring tile + 2 vowels

6:51 am

Shirley made that role ... and speaking of her, my husband also saw "Terms of Endearment" for the first time a couple weeks ago (he's getting a whole education with me!)

6:52 am

Have any of you seen The Machinist? I watched it last night...weird but good. Christian Bale weighed next to nothing!

I've not seen that one yet.

6:53 am

I read the reviews on that, especially around Bale's performance. HAven't seen it yet; it's on the list.

6:53 am

It's several years old

if it's been out a while, I may well have seen it then... i'm terrible with remembering titles

6:54 am

right then, last 4 words - who can help me: co5/14, no4/5 (not the knowing one), sp4/5 and sp 5/14

sp5/14 to reject.... she sp5/14'd his advances

6:55 am

ragalla, take your co6/24 and drop the 'r' for your co5/14

6:57 am

no4/5 = no+decease minus the e

sp4/5 to foretell.... sounds like alt. spelling of the operation which is the animal equivalent of a hysterectomy

6:57 am

And th-th-th-that's all folks! Happy hunting!

would anyone like a link to a word generator? ( to be used only in extreme circumstances of course ) ;o)

6:59 am

Is there more than one co6/24? Because when I try your clue for co5/14 it doesn't work, ch1212

yep inge, more than one co6/24

7:00 am

8:18 am

ex & overdose initials & 2 vowels

I have some growing on the far end of the property, I'd like to get some of the seeds and grow a few closer to the house. Only problem is, I can't find the seeds. Bit of a newbie gardner.

8:18 am

8:20 am

I regret that I did not find the first ru4/5 before now.;)

od5/14 please, and is the 6/24 related?

8:20 am

metal - British smelly words.

8:20 am

The seeds of several varieties of Morning Glory (Ipomoea violacea) contain a naturally occurring tryptamine called Lysergic Acid Amide (LSA), which is closely related to LSD. Seeds are taken orally, and can be eaten whole or the active alkaloids can be extracted. I didn't know that

8:21 am

bunny, what do you need to know about Morning glories? Do yu live near Alamo, Texas?

8:21 am

ha, finally, had to try every two vowel combo possible. THank you.

I live near Fort Worth. I just wanted to get some seeds in the ground nearer the house before they die out. I just can't seem to find the seeds. How stupid is that?

Promise I won't eat them!

fish to forehead.... was using wrong fifth vowel all this time

Fireworks at last, TYVM Jacula

WTG Metal

8:23 am

8:23 am

seedds should be right below the deceased flower

8:24 am

congrats, metal

thank you everyone. as much as I hate to Fire some off and run, I have to go to bed before I go nose first into the keyboard. it's been daylight for quite some time now and that means it's time for my head to hit the pillow.

That's what I thought, but none to be found or I'm a complete moron. I don't think these were planted where they are.

8:24 am

Sleep well, metal.

hi haz

12:37 pm

still morning here

12:37 pm

Hi Haz!

12:37 pm

Hello, Babblers!

12:37 pm

Gosh - good morning then, April! And hello to Annie.

12:37 pm

hi jai

12:37 pm

Hi jai!!!

12:38 pm

Atalante - are you still here? How is the patient?

12:38 pm

Hi, Annie!

12:38 pm

Hi April!

12:39 pm

hi Haz! patient's much better today! vet did unspeakable things to her bottom, much to her relief afterwards, and she's on antibiotics. they think one of her anal glands was gunky and infected

12:39 pm

Oh, dear, Atalante, have you got a sick baby pet?

12:40 pm

So had she been scooting along the floor? Anal gland od5/14 is pretty unspeakable as well!

12:40 pm

sick baby dog :( but she's muchbetter today!

12:40 pm

ata, glad to hear that...

12:40 pm

I'm so glad. Those infections are awful.

12:40 pm

actually, she hadn't been ... as son as I see her doing that, I whisk her down to vet, but she does have an "issue" with her glands constantly

12:40 pm

Atalante is now an expert on dog urine sample retrieval.....

12:41 pm

oh yes. I should add it to my CV :P

12:41 pm

What a rare talent! I'm impressed!

12:41 pm

Maybe it's a spaniel thing - Spangle is prone to problems as well in that area.

12:42 pm

but it took 2 of us to hold her down while the glands were emptied ... shows how gunky they must have been. she was *screaming*. but its so sweet,, the second it was done, she turned round and wiggled and licked the vets cheek

12:42 pm

What a cute name for a Spaniel, Haz :o)

12:42 pm

good morning, everyone

12:42 pm

fu 6 anyone?

12:43 pm

fu+ ending of artificial human

12:43 pm

Thanks, Jaianniah - I had the name picked ready for a spaniel.

12:43 pm

hi nan

Hello all

12:43 pm

Atalante - I'm glad she's feeling better. And you, as well!

12:44 pm

In my clue, I forgot there was a "ceeZ" in there as well...My apologies!

12:44 pm

that's "cee"

12:44 pm

Spangle is the *perfect* name for a spaniel :)

12:44 pm

I'm doing great....LOL

12:44 pm

mind you, so is Hobbit :P

12:45 pm

She was my Christmas present, so it seemed extra appropriate!

12:45 pm

fu6: beginning of hot pink colour + ending of mechanical being

12:45 pm

what a wonderful Christmas present!

12:45 pm

hmmmm

12:46 pm

Haz, that is so neat- a puppy for Christmas!

12:46 pm

She was born in November and we picked her from the litter, but she didn't actually arrive until January. But she was worth waiting for.

Cyber, I tried that for fu6 - its says not found in dictionoary

12:46 pm

fu6: fu+ "cee" + end of andr***- artificial human

12:47 pm

I wonder why my icon never shows up on my screen -- I'm loading it the way I always have.

12:47 pm

April did you get the do's yet?

12:47 pm

got it thanks!

12:47 pm

Haz, I think that's a good amount of time for a pup to stay with her mom and sibs

oh, I was think cyborg lol

12:47 pm

no, still need the last two torgone

12:47 pm

three letters of the hot pink colour and last three of the mechanical being

12:47 pm

I had trouble changing my icon yesterday- it just wouldn't work...Wonder if there is a bug?

12:47 pm

I was thinking robot!

12:47 pm

Yes, I think she was about 8 weeks when she arrived.

12:48 pm

a black rose jai

12:48 pm

8 weeks- a real baby puppy! Bet she was darling!

12:48 pm

anyone got the g's? -- just have the 5/24

12:48 pm

I took one home at 7 weeks and was sorry. The first one I took at 10 weeks and he was much better adjusted

12:49 pm

I am sold on adopting adult dogs

12:49 pm

have you got any photos of baby Spangle??

12:49 pm

do5 is short for doctrine - Sounds like someone who is brash has a lot of mo***

12:49 pm

Actually, it is dark blue- it is a picture I created in Paint...."rare as a blue rose"

12:49 pm

She was gorgeous! She was so small she could run under the settees in the living room. Now she can just about get her head in.

12:49 pm

veru vivid jai

12:49 pm

Very cute!

12:50 pm

I have photos, but they were taken with a normal camera and we have no scanner...... I could try to find a picture on Google to give you an idea of what she looked like.

12:50 pm

Beautiful jai!

12:50 pm

yay thanks Tor

12:50 pm

Whats the word count today

12:52 pm

A good representation of baby Spangle. Refresh if necessary!

12:52 pm

12:53 pm

12:53 pm

oh baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!! adorable!

12:53 pm

Oh, sam, do you play?

12:53 pm

how can noid not be a word! Avoid the Noid!

12:54 pm

I know - it's just what she looked like.

12:54 pm

I guess they don't speak Bronx in Enable!

12:54 pm

most people play on the black keys and the white keys. I play on the cracks.

12:54 pm

that's a no

12:55 pm

I listen

12:55 pm

LOL, Sam- I think that is how I play, too!

12:55 pm

wow Haz, i can see your icon, but when I click on it I see your adult dog

12:56 pm

voice teacher says: I play on the white keys, I play on the black keys, and you sing on the cracks!

12:56 pm

That's odd - I'm a total computer washout, so I'll not begin to speculate what's wrong. Everybody always says 'Refresh' and it seems to cure most problems.

12:56 pm

I did that a couple times to see your icon in the small

12:56 pm

it's refreshing, at least

12:56 pm

Sam, what range do you sing? I am a coloratura (sp) soprano

12:57 pm

somewhere between baritone and croak

12:57 pm

1:04 pm

asked too soon! as usual!

1:05 pm

I adopted a mix dog from freecycle, first day of July. She is an awesome dog. Awesome. I always recommend adopting adult dogs. You save their lives. And for the most part, except what we preferred, she was trained, and loved my cats.

1:05 pm

His name is "ivan" because we found him in the middle of Hurricane Ivan, shivering under a house....

1:05 pm

1:07 pm

He's quite a character! He has a defective tail- the vet says that it is common in Labs- his tail looks docked- gived him a crazy look!

1:07 pm

the io is related to the antiseptic?

1:07 pm

I have fireworks, anyone need a clue before I go. I think this was the easêst grid since I started about 6 weeks ago

3:54 pm

Stidmama, I'd buy you a beer, great clue ;)

3:54 pm

Heya hk!

3:54 pm

co7/48, not exactly in a good frame of mind :)

3:55 pm

Co7/48-a-Cat Ltd.

3:55 pm

co 7 is my normal state of mind -- "not understanding clues"

3:55 pm

stid... what kind of blurriness are you getting?

3:55 pm

*giggling at Monty Python reference*

3:55 pm

ok... nevermind stid.

3:55 pm

when the camera is out of fo***, then the picture is blurry!

3:56 pm

i didn't know you were clueing me. *blushes*

3:56 pm

LOL dax...

3:56 pm

ok, need soe assistane with 3 "Ds", do5/16, do5/22 and do6/36, these are all easy to identify as there is only one of each

*hk is pleased that so far she has missed only the simple & obvious words!* 20 to go

3:57 pm

do 5/16 is like the following 5/14, different fourth letter

3:57 pm

thanks everyone for the co7, i was very co7 because i kept going up instead of down :)

3:57 pm

the do 5/22 is a loose woman, old-fashioned term, rhymes with a nickname for "roxanne"; then plural

*hk quickly knocks on woods to not jinx the remaining words into morphing into unintelligible babblets*

3:58 pm

go helen!

alex trebek!

4:00 pm

gotta go. helenkeller really you must not give away my secret identity like that :)

4:00 pm

after that, helen, I really am co7!

4:00 pm

LOL - bye pab!

4:00 pm

Fireworks!

4:01 pm

eu 4/5 is a currency used in France, Germany and Austria (but not England)

4:01 pm

YAY Girlfriday!

4:02 pm

co5/14 please??

4:02 pm

bye stid :)

4:03 pm

Hello folks I am the one making noise...FIREWORKS... for me today.... and without help!

4:03 pm

final word su4/8 - any clues most welcome please?

4:04 pm

Hang ten

i don't have any of the recent requests, sorry

4:04 pm

Denny what you do on the waves

4:04 pm

Denny...what the Aussies do in the water...and are good at it!!

except that one, lol

First time on here today... avid fan of shackworks.weboggle.com but a friend recommended this site... the chat is nice but it makes it pretty easy to cheat, no?

4:04 pm

oops sorry no su4/8, su4/6 - doh been trying for the wrong numbers! Slaps head in shame!

4:05 pm

got the do5/16 ty Stid, but not real flash on old fashioned termanology I guess, Who is Roxanne, I'll googel it if I know what to look for :)

char - not if you don't read it, lol - welcome!

4:05 pm

I know Webboggle very well

4:05 pm

rhymes with dupe!

4:06 pm

Denny what you eat with a spoun

4:06 pm

finally fireworks! Yay! Thanks everyone for all your help and happy babbling. Hope all is well in NYC.

4:06 pm

sorry spoon!

4:06 pm

Denny please clue co5/14

4:06 pm

Charo not really cheating just getting some help as sometimes the obvious ones are staring you in the face or they are so obscure

4:06 pm

We try not to blatantly give a way words. But it's not a competiton anyway, so if you "cheat" you're only cheating yourself ..

4:07 pm

Anyone with the od5/14 & od6/24 please

4:07 pm

and who is 'cheating' tor??

char - if you like weboggle - there is a game at iwin.com called tangleword that i prefer much better - basically the same thing, except there's chat & you have the ability to rotate the board, also more options of room sizes & times

4:07 pm

Bye all am going to make a late night dinner now ... see you all tomorrow!

4:07 pm

played tangleword the other day, liked it bery much

4:08 pm

Ive played that too....its excellent!

4:08 pm

there is quite a few Boggle games on the web, I've found a lot just by googling

4:08 pm

flask the police might co****e off an area where there has been a crime

4:08 pm

but lose the 2nd consonant

good to hear colhad - hope to see you there sometime - i play mostly in the 2 minute room - same name, less last 'r'

4:09 pm

There's one called Word Scramble at mindfun.com, it's boggle but the rules are slightly bent in that you can use the same letter in a word, makes for very high scoring,

4:09 pm

Might ahve to check some of those sites out... Night night all - any clues needed shout quickly!

that sounds good colhad - i'll check that one out

4:10 pm

To some, using any clues or lists is cheating .. It's just a matter of what level of challenge you want

4:10 pm

od5/14 & 6/24 Please

hellenkeller, you can rotate the board at Weboggle by clicking it

nite denny

4:11 pm

There's the more traditional boggle at this site http://fun-with-words.com/boggle.html? hx=706

4:11 pm

Do you use clues or lists ever??

apes

char - i didn't know that - thanks!

Are there any official rules that provide using clues or lists is cheating?

char - now that is just giving the word away - lol

4:11 pm

bettyanne - smells

char - now that is just giving the word away - lol

4:12 pm

Betty - od5/14 - another word for smell and plural

4:12 pm

just realised that sounds awful - sorry bettyanne LOL I'm sure you don't!

4:13 pm

but do a google search, type in "online boggle games", you'll be pleasently surprised at how many there are, there's a few pay sites, but also lots of freebies

LOL denny - didn't even notice that! ROFL!!!

LOL denny - didn't even notice that! ROFL!!!

4:13 pm

No problem. I have the word but can't find a plural or the 6/24.

If there is no official rule that says using clues and lists is cheating, to even suggest otherwise is not only ludicrous but quite mean-spirited!

4:14 pm

the 6/24 is the plural - 6/21 is what happens to priests

4:14 pm

Sure I do. I snag clues when I can, and resort to the list when I can't see any more words ..

4:15 pm

.....as I think most of us do!

4:15 pm

Thanks so much Denny and all.

4:15 pm

altho' i'm told it's quite painless :-D

gadarene - uh, i don't know of any official rule list of babble - but people on here definitly have their own standards & opinions of how they like to play

4:16 pm

could I request a clue for co5/22 and co6/36 please :)

4:16 pm

ahhh do5/22 and do6/356 sorry

4:17 pm

ahh, try that again, do5/22 and do6/36

4:17 pm

colhad - rhymes with ms hart from chicago and her plural

4:17 pm

Someone who is brash might be said to have mo***

so, if someone disagrees, they are free to label others cheaters? how ridiculous

4:17 pm

do5 rhymes with that. do6 is plural

i think what i'm trying to say is that there are players on here who prefer to do the grid in a pure manner - going clueless - but that's a personal choice, but i don't think most of them consider cluing as cheating

4:18 pm

ho5/16 please. I have the one that relates to magic I think.

4:18 pm

santa might say this to his father!

4:18 pm

I go listless, but I don't die if I see a clue, or even ask for a clue *gasp*!

4:19 pm

I wish I could do it without clues, but it's near on impossible cos the majority of the words are very obscure

4:19 pm

and nor do I....its a nice feeling to help somebody finish!

colhad - i agree, i wish i were brilliant enough to go clueless everyday too!

4:19 pm

Someone used the word cheat in reference to reading the chat log. I don't like using the word when you're doing something just for fun ..

LOL ata

4:20 pm

Great clue Denny. Thanks. That's it for me. Thanks all again for your help. Bye now.

4:20 pm

Exactly Tor!

4:20 pm

I'm too impatient to do it clueless (altho' I'm pretty clueless most of the time!) I like to help and try to come up with wierd clues to make people guess even more!!!!

torgone - you guys are being too rough, i think it was a newbie who was just trying to get the lay of the land here

4:20 pm

and thats what its all about FUN!!

4:20 pm

sorry that should read weird clues!

4:20 pm

If you used a computer program to automatically fill in all the words for you, I would call that cheating, and kind of missing the point ...

4:21 pm

torgone you mean there's such a thing...

4:21 pm

I'm sure there must be ..

4:21 pm

Good afternoon everyone. I have a lot of fun, just trying to figure out some of the clues. And trying to clue some myself, without giving the word away.

4:21 pm

sure there is

4:21 pm

Oh god Tor....am nev er likely to even want to do that.....anyway I would probably blow my pc up trying!!..lol

4:22 pm

we had a troll on here yesterday or the day before doing it

I say if there are no rules and the idea is to have fun, do as you wish.... and those who disagree can lump it!

4:23 pm

Don't you think that Lickety has to has some kind of program to come up with the lists everyday?

hello

4:23 pm

Of co6/24, pida

4:24 pm

Maybe Lickety is in cahoots with Dr God (does he still oversee this game?) and they do it together (IFYSWIM)!!!

4:24 pm

Hi Smiley

4:24 pm

Definitely pida1

4:24 pm

I'm just glad they come up with the lists. Some days I wouldn't even be able to get started without them

4:25 pm

sorry, don;t get the ms hart clue for do5/22, can I ahve another please :)

4:25 pm

And the early morning cluers......

4:26 pm

I've only discovered it today - what a godsend. The times I've been tearing my hair out...Colhad - a vixen could be described as this..

4:26 pm

It's short for doctrine/s - look at the points ..

4:26 pm

..but change the first letter...

4:26 pm

I find it amazing login in early morning........and then someone might say goodnight......or in the afternoon....someone is saying goodmorning.....its great for cyber travellers!

i had a phone call - what did i miss?

4:27 pm

hi helen!

4:27 pm

sweet dreams Atalante. I'll try again later. This was fun!

6:22 pm

stid - that was just mean - now I'm never gonna get any work done - between this and that other site ;)

6:23 pm

Hi folks. NOTE TO THOSE PRESENTLY PLAYING WEBBOGGLE : Those playing under the name Team Babble have been consistently coming top. However, if those playing as TEAM_BABBLE & TEAM BABBLE signed back in as Team Babble we would really rock!

6:23 pm

LOL Kitens! I only do the weboggle when someone else brings it up...

6:24 pm

hi Jac! hadn't seen the others on there...

6:24 pm

Taking a break from WebBoggle for a while as the site's doing is silly NaN seconds thing again.

6:25 pm

Hi stid - If that was you with me at the top with 236, the other 2 were at 49 & 20. (I always scroll down to check what words only 1 found.)

6:25 pm

yep, me too. Assuming most folks have finished, as I haven't seen a request for a clue in quite some time...

6:26 pm

jfarber was playing with us too, also Atalante, I think...

6:26 pm

I was too

6:26 pm

badly I might add

6:26 pm

but if anyone does need clues, I am here, watching the chatlog.

6:26 pm

stid - I put a message on BabAnon some days ago, asking who I'd been playing Boggle with. Nice to know who's there. Did you all punch the air when we were coming top?

6:27 pm

yes, and I suspect others were as well. I know for sure that I can't do that well on my own! LOL

6:27 pm

you bet, Jacula -- it's a real boost to do well at a game like that

6:27 pm

Don't forget - sign in as Team Babble (exactly as I've typed it).

6:28 pm

stid - I had a quick look at the community section on there earlier. Didn't look much fun though. Have you checked it out?

6:28 pm

no, I didn't -- It's too fast-paced for much community building, I suspect

6:29 pm

Stid - I got back in and scored '1' just. LOL.

6:30 pm

LOL Jac!!!

6:30 pm

well, I have some stuff to do around the house. Will check back in later if I can, and probably do story online tonight since it's such a small grid.

6:32 pm

8:06 pm

bbl

8:06 pm

8:07 pm

8:08 pm

Jillibus, it must be lovely where you live. We visited the San Juan Islands recently, close to B.C.

8:09 pm

Jill, if I could figure out how to put my picture of my own cat, Princess, I would. Not too computer lit.

8:09 pm

Kayze - do you have a pic of Princess in your My Pictures?

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

No, silver, I've never been to Edmonton but I have a nephew who lives there - I've heard about that huge mall

8:14 pm

8:15 pm

8:44 pm

hi stidmatt amd stidmama

8:44 pm

hullo folkies

8:44 pm

It is going pretty well, finishing up Taxonomy, doing Algebra, learning about U.S. history, and a lot of review in Band.

8:45 pm

nut!

8:45 pm

hi again nut! good icon choice for this evening.

8:45 pm

And a good evening from me as well :-)

8:45 pm

hello nutty

8:45 pm

kewl, what instrument do you play?

8:45 pm

nice lightning mab

8:45 pm

{{{WOULF}}} how's you and family?

8:45 pm

and gw! now it's a party!

8:45 pm

riemann! HELLO!

8:45 pm

riemann? where?

8:45 pm

yes stid, i'd like to honor my yank. it's such a sad thing

8:46 pm

So lets crack open the jacuzzi

8:46 pm

*sneaks past Stidmama*

8:46 pm

oh there you are! you really must pony up for Pro... :-)

8:46 pm

LOL

8:46 pm

I'll bring mochajavachocolattes...

8:46 pm

btw, my icon can double for weather. As I am outside, it was obviously a warm, dry day! *grin*

8:47 pm

oh man it's been a while since i had a mjcl

8:47 pm

tis, nut, and the people in the building killed - it's all sad.

8:47 pm

cold and rainy here, stidmama

8:47 pm

welp gotta go warm up the vcr. nighters babblers hope to see you tomorrow

8:47 pm

nut - saw your icon change this aft at the library - very sad, and the first I'd heard of who had been in the plane.

8:47 pm

so riemann -- today we learned that -4x^3 is not the same as -(4x)^3... right stidmatt?

8:47 pm

later lbd!

8:47 pm

haven't heard much more mab because i was out tracking a deer with my neighbor

8:47 pm

Yes, we did learn that.

8:48 pm

nite lbd -- hi woulf

8:48 pm

venison for dinner, nut?

8:48 pm

Bye lbd! Hi Woulf!

8:48 pm

so long lbd -- heydee jilli and stidmatt

8:48 pm

afraid not stid, lost the trail in the rain. got cold, quit at 830, and came back to hunt all the ticks off my body

8:49 pm

I see that occasionally. More frequent is (2 + x)^2 = 4 + x^2

8:49 pm

has it been confirmed that the baseball player was in the plane? the last i heard his passport had been found on the street...

8:49 pm

nut - he was a Toronto Bluejay for a while, so Canada cares too.

8:49 pm

Woulf, can hardly wait for your Seb to babble with us... or Kristianna!

8:49 pm

hi gw :)

8:49 pm

it would tak a cold hearted person not to care about anyone affected by it, famous or not.

8:49 pm

That makes sense, riemann.

8:50 pm

oh no! that's not right, riemann... though of course your students are more advanced (in age anyway) so have more ability to be inventive...

8:50 pm

mab -- been a while, lady -- how have you been?

8:50 pm

the news is saying that Lidle was on the plane

8:50 pm

and ny is reminded of thurman munson...

8:50 pm

and ny is reminded of thurman munson...

8:50 pm

Oh, stidmama just told me that that is wrong, sorry.

8:51 pm

stidmama -- whenever I warm up the computer while they are up, they are both busy trying to get in my lap so they can write

8:51 pm

even those of us who are mets, and not yankees fans

8:51 pm

Creativity is definitely not lacking among my students. Accuracy would be a pleasant change.

8:51 pm

such precocious children, Woulf! won't be long, of course, and they'll have their own logins and all!

8:51 pm

LOL, riemann

8:51 pm

Yup, that it would.

8:52 pm

hey stidmatt, i'm a huge harry potter fan myself

8:52 pm

It's hunting season here in South Dakota. If my students are as good with a gun as they are with their math, full body armor may be needed.

8:52 pm

oh, nut, i agree completely. just not up on the news.

8:52 pm

ROFL. how did they take the ultimatum, riemann -- do you think they'll take inverse operations more seriously?

8:52 pm

well... there is still a bit of time for that yet, stidmama -- Kristianna is good with her numbers, but words are still a new frontier for her -- as for Seb the best he can do right now is -- hdsgyw45s

8:52 pm

That is really sad.

8:53 pm

They're great with inverse operations. sqrt( 4 + x^2 ) = 2 + x.

8:53 pm

it's a start, gw ;)

8:53 pm

I have a pic of stidmatt on the computer at age 6 mos... or is that the one on the piano? need to try to find it and use it for my icon one of these days. He was so precious!

8:53 pm

;-D

8:54 pm

*looks to see if stidmatt is blushing*

8:54 pm

co6/24?

8:54 pm

It was me at the piano. It was a bit of my future. (here and now.)

8:54 pm

getting co7der by the minute riemann, let's talk color theory for a while until I get my bearings back.

8:54 pm

My students FAVORITE inverse operation: arc tan(x) = cot(x).

8:54 pm

co 6/24 is chicken co**** bleu...

8:55 pm

oh! ty, stid!

8:55 pm

WAY past what I remember, dear professor. *sob*

8:55 pm

Color theory: they write in black. I write in red. The winner is the one with the most on the page.

8:55 pm

THUNDER - BOOM

8:55 pm

did nutty buddy get all the ticks off????

8:56 pm

ha ha ha, i sure hope so rennie

8:56 pm

*brightly* but I have a wonderful idea for a new card series, with three-dimensional wings on insects! I found some iridescent vellum in my stash and it makes lovely wings...

8:56 pm

me 2 nutty buddy

8:56 pm

LOL (again) riemann.

8:56 pm

could ya check my hair for me ren???

8:56 pm

{*renny*}

8:56 pm

I've got a few students trying to lose. They're succeeding admirably.

8:56 pm

I get ticked off when bugs infest my dogs... (luckily a rare occurence)

8:56 pm

fu6?

8:56 pm

wolf!!!

8:57 pm

So are they.

8:57 pm

no thank you leslie

8:57 pm

sorry nutty, no offense intended

8:57 pm

8:57 pm

nut!

8:57 pm

he he he

8:57 pm

riemann, I pulled out a red marker when reviewing stidmatt's homework today -- very little red on it. He did a good job. *proud mama look*

8:57 pm

better go unplug the expensives

8:58 pm

better w/ the thunder boomers nut

8:58 pm

haha i read that "explosives" nut

8:58 pm

I'd better bring my sunglasses when I come for a visit. With you beaming like this, I'll need them. 'grats, Matt.

8:58 pm

nut, are you leaving?

8:59 pm

no thunder here, nut -- just boring rain, though there was an impressive downpour while I was at the store

8:59 pm

Thanks riemann!

8:59 pm

well, then I'll just get the full report out of the way. stidgrant's teacher conference was BORING. They said he's doing really well. and then repeated themselves several times. *BEAMING*

8:59 pm

phew, gottem

8:59 pm

i'm also missing the fu6; anyone have it? pleeeease

9:00 pm

grey, it rained enough while i was out in the stinking woods harvesting ticks

congrats stidmama!

9:00 pm

no rain here, not even a hint. *sigh* I was able to work outside for an hour this afternoon once it warmed up. Can almost see past the weeds to one of the driveway beds now.

9:00 pm

idon;t have it i only have a few

9:00 pm

thanks, Tea!

9:00 pm

*smiles* *and turns down the brightness on the monitor*

9:00 pm

fu + say the word cord wrong

9:00 pm

looks like we're on our own mab and leslie

9:01 pm

Well, see -- that's what you get for collecting ticks instead of finding the deer :D

9:01 pm

fu6 resembles a "mucousy" word... ending with robot suffix

9:01 pm

*looks at clue* hey, whats wrong with that one??

9:01 pm

fu6 3/4 of a very naughty work plus r2d2 is an andr***

9:01 pm

9:03 pm

hey ya chj!

9:03 pm

look like planes to me

9:03 pm

9:03 pm

9:03 pm

odd word - means resembling seaweed

9:03 pm

hey yourself renfield!

9:03 pm

what's tomorrow's theme?

9:03 pm

Could I have a hint to the suffix of co7,48, I know co 4,5.

flight

9:04 pm

ah, rennie - your icon

9:04 pm

thankis

9:04 pm

I used to want to be a real jet pilot like that, but am now content to just toil in the dirt and look up when they fly low overhead (we're on one of the approaches to a local air base)

9:04 pm

go5 g + vixens are female f****

9:04 pm

9:05 pm

hahahah chj

9:05 pm

i would do just about *anything* to fly with them, just once! blushes

9:05 pm

eva--a small plane crashed into an apt building in nyc.

9:05 pm

little red furry animals that get huinted by upper class twits

9:05 pm

where was the apartment building?

9:05 pm

the plane was registered to a NY Yankee, Corey Lidle

9:05 pm

I am now too matronly for those sort of adventures, I am afraid, but every once in a while, I do dream of pulling a few gs.

9:05 pm

he was killed, along with 3 others

9:05 pm

upper east side. accident.

9:05 pm

ohhhh haha thanks guess i'm not the vixen type :)

9:06 pm

72nd and York, i think

9:06 pm

the plane was flown by yankee cory lidle

9:06 pm

eva, a small plane crashed into an NY apartment building today. The NY Ynkees pitcher and his flight instructor were in the plane and killed

9:06 pm

I saw that on the paper.

9:06 pm

yes

stidmatt - did you get your co word?

9:06 pm

sad. I haven't seen the news today.

9:06 pm

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/11/nyre gion/12crashcnd.html?ref=sports

9:06 pm

I am really hoping no one was hurt in the apartments, last I heard they hadn't been able to get in yet.

9:06 pm

No, I haven't yet.

9:06 pm

thanks leslie

9:06 pm

very sad. my heart stopped when i heard

it's like befuddle

9:07 pm

co 7 is to be befuddled, to not understand. think of Python sketch CO*****-A-Cat

9:07 pm

matt - what co word do you need?

9:07 pm

he flew out of teterboro airport in new jersey where i took flying lessons back in the early 1970's

9:07 pm

9:07 pm

(good clue, Tea!)

9:08 pm

he can type it here stid

9:08 pm

riemann -- I expect you finished a while ago?

9:08 pm

i won;t mind

great minds and all . . .

9:08 pm

and, as I mentioned before, he was a Toronto BlueJay for a year

9:08 pm

do you still fly, chj?

9:08 pm

i6/24?

9:08 pm

It fits me a bit sometimes.

9:08 pm

io6/24?

9:08 pm

IO + al**** huxley?

that is a poopy head word - lib

9:09 pm

hmmm... poopy....

9:09 pm

ho6? the big words, relative to this grid, are confounding me.

just keep n***** your head, mab

9:09 pm

io + managers get ****ed with champagne after wins

9:10 pm

ho 6b first three letters of previous word + loud noise (or first three letters for alternate word for supper)

9:10 pm

ty, stid! firewords!

9:10 pm

I agree, mab -- this grid is deceptive in its frustration level

9:10 pm

io plus cons, plus the suffix making it an adj

9:10 pm

io + al**** huxley

9:10 pm

ty, jilli! :)

9:10 pm

10:22 pm

a lot of us do try to do the grid without the aid of a list, but sometimes the words are so obscure it is nigh impossible

10:22 pm

green that is how most of us operate, but the list really helps to fill in the gaps when it starts coming down to the wire
