hi angel, mrp ty for the sa 8/65 - what a word!!
today is a double anniversary for my husband and me. it's the tenth anniversary of the day we met, and our eighth wedding anniversary.
how lovely, what an anniversary!
congrats angelsong
happy days for you two, angelsong, and many more!
got to go, bbl happy babbling!
my husband has been chuckling to himself for days. he's plotting something.
Morning all How loevely angel, how long before you find out what the surprise is?
knowing him, it's going to be several surprises spread over the entire day.
It's ging to be a great day then, congrats to you both.
You'll have to tell us what the surprises were when you get them!
he knows I love cats and kittens. last night, he gave me a kitten calendar and an appointment book with kitten photos in it.
and he put a small box wrapped in gold paper next to my plate at dinner, but I declined to open it until today. he said it had been on layaway for three months.
oh ho, he has been planning in advance!! exciting stuff
he does the same for my birthday and Christmas. the suspense is almost unbearable....but I'm never bored.
Do you do the same sort of thing to him too?
of course!
we have a lot of fun.
keep us posted angel! sounds like a lot of fun!

wow ren, you in the Bahamas? Having fun? (((FMitch))) I am around, but I hide the log when there are too many "snakeletter, cross letter, first vowel" clues. They take away my fun.
hahaha no sprite - i lived there for a few years - i'm just dreaming again
hi sprite!
Now that is what we could use more: active dreaming! Enjoy them to the hilt, ren :) ((((jilli))))

morning sapphie
hi sapphie
hi sapphie! pretty good so far.
I figured that but can't put it together
hey sapphie
glad its the weekend!!! :)
jilli: other word for very strange, what we do not know.
had the al ages ago, fran -- this is another one sprite found
so the theme is charitable orgs???
no, it's the same one jilli
jilli, I have put you on the wrong track. One is the al5. The other is the ea7/36
yes sapphie
Take the al5 and add a letter to the start and end for a 7 letter word
I am ever so sorry for the confusion
sprite, I think I'm too tired
don't say you are thinking of hitting the hay, jilli! ;)
I have all the ea7s and the al5 so I guess I have it after all -- ?
i think so jilli! :-)
ea 7 how many please
I really am, sprite! And my cat is telling me off too so I'd better obey her
you do, jilli!
never ever argue with a cat, jilli. Sleep well!
taz - 3 ea7s
three ea7s taz

night jilli! sleep tight!
ok, I'll be good (sort of) and go to bed -- nite all

you're not good, you're the best, jilli ;) Especially when bad. Sweet dreams!
Night night jilli
hahaha sprite! *poof*
do the 3 ea all start wiht the same 5 letter beggininning?
two of them do taz
I found a fish I found a fish :) S7/32
the other one has to do with your hearing organ
tyty
thanks sprite! that was clued before and i didn't connect it!
Every grid needs its own fish!
phantom: simultanagnosia
and it's a great fish!
wish you hadn't pointed that one out, Egg :)
just found a st 7
it at least aptly describes my predicament
having trouble wiht the other 7 the he... organ
ooh taz, i only have an st8, i'll trade clues with you?
nvm, i just found it
ok mine is trouble breathing, a raspy sound
i'll still help you with the 8
taz, the 8 is neptune's "fork" with an extra letter in front
got ti ty
ty fran
you want a clue for the ea7 "organ"?
Hi and thanks Fran
yw sapphie
hi fmitch!
cant get beyond the first three letters lol
i do fran!!
taz, it's a compound and you can get it from either e
which, in a way, is very fitting for the word
either e at the top
hello fmitch:)
very true sprite
you might use these for "buildup" in that organ
Morning jean
hi Fmitch
well ty will look further for the obvious
debb, did that help?
still thinking - maybe i need some sleep.....
it's really twisty, especially if you try to build it off the upper right corner e.
debb and taz, don't **** the ball, you can do it!!
haha - got it!!!
thanks fran!
ooooooooooooooooooooo
yw debb! :-)
tytytyvm
fran, are you done?
lol, yw taz!

(just found another one)
Morning all. Phantom word parrot

epox
I didn't mean to do that - drat

could you make it a word next time frances? :-)
I'm trying, I'm trying!
she did, Fran... in her next post!

and don't forget the plural, LOL
hey! the scary babblet is back after a long absence.
Oh ooooooooooooops. *blushes*

sorry for picking on you frances! :-)
I turn my back for 2 mins and there are words all over the place!! Thanks Frances :)

Morning Haz
morning all, well the children are home this weekend and i hade planned to spend some "quality time" with them. how every one is on a computer the other is on a games console. so yey i get to babble!!!!
No, I'm not saying that! Just that I'll have to shopping, we'll have a visitor for supper and if I know my daughter, she'll need the computer this afternoon. I'm going to do the puzzle via Lickety so that I don't feel under pressure to finish. I'll still chat! (Sorry for the delay in replying, a caller at the door)
Im sure they will turn into perfect criminals when they are bigger!!
well planned M3 :)
Mornin' All

Good morning Odin, and FMitch!
greetings Odin
Hey FMitch ... how goes it?
Mornin' Haz
Happy to have reached 1/2 way
Not yet Taz!

bye taz
oasi
tr8 - first part indicating three, second part an anagram of what sits on your shoulders plus another consonant. It ends in a vowel.
Got the tr8 - a figure formed by three planes meeting at a point
LOL Haz, what timing
We're like the wrestling tag teams of old!
Hmm not sure about that analagy, but hey what the heck :)
It' the best I could come up with - there has to be a more intellectual equivalent.....
SIMPLER would be better....lol
the middle anagram doesn't work!
It does if you add another consonant.
Good morning/afternoon from the USA!
starting with the T in second row?
Morning Summer
Hi, Flask!
start with the t in the 4th row flsk Hi Summer
Yes, Flask. You've got the three part, now lose the beginning letter of the place in the garden where you store tools etc. Now put in the first two letters of a rodent
Hi FMItch!
ty Haz!
actually just realised I think you can start from the t in the 3rd or 4th row
You're welcome, Flask!
I have finished! Hooray!
Very impressive, SummerRose!!! Well done!
Why, thank you, eggcorn!
congrats Summer
T Y, FMITCH!

Time to go. Hopefully will be back later.
good morning all, how is the grid today?
good morning. the grid has been a challenge, as usual. perhaps, not as difficult as some
hello wolvie - hello everyone.
is the site a bit slow today, or is it just my server?
not as slow as a lot of other times
good morning all
I thought it was just my end (and has been for a few days) - but maybe it is the site.
hi Al***. :-)
hello alien

Morning all

Good morning 6a
hi eva how's your cold?
leith
oops
okay except for the occasional choking fits. There's snow on the ground. Not much, but very pretty
ugh to both
always forget how much you're not a winter fan
hot and humid!
I only have 3 ex words so far. Are there others?
5 ex words
Merp is getting restless. Only a little while before the biting begins
thanks Dipp!
he needs a ro6
hmmm, don't have that yet
got it!
13 wds
and why isn't poxrot a word?
I have gotten 6 words
Actuslly I have gotten 13
thanks. The ro6's which were so plentiful a few weeks ago have run out, or word has gotten out that there's a serial killed in the house, so he's quite disappointed. Poxrot should be allowed
athen
Eva, does Merp like sa6's to snack on?
you have me stumped aloysius...need to go looking
it is a fish when you find it, eva!!
Alo, don't you mean sa7
oops, my bad.. you are correct peri!
thanks aloysius! He would love them, but has never tried.
Good morning everyone
Good Morning All
guess I can't count without my second coff a cuppie
hi peri!
sas7 fish usualy comes in a can
meant sa7
Merp gets st8 when I don't give him his breakfast on time
hello Peri, Mom, Eva et al
Hi Lynxxx
more than half, bbl
hi Lynxx
Bye Peri
anyone have hints for the sa & tr 8's?
Eva I love your icon - is that Merp?
yes it is sugar-his royal highness himself
Sorry Eva, I don't have those
He's gorgeous!!!!!!
good morning everyone!!!
Thank you. Not that I had any responsibility for it(-:
Eva, he is one beautiful cat
Do you have others?
Thanks-also a bit demented, and very kvetchy right now, so better go feed him. No,sugar, he's any only cat. Didn't play well with others in the shelter so we never took the rish. Do you have cats?
tr8.50 - starts with prep for three - then an anagram of what is on yours shoulders with a hook letter thrown in as well (thanks haz!). the last bit sounds like a mythical creature)
hi annie and anyone else i missed
sa 8 -- first 4 of a musical intrument and sometimes playing babble seems fu****
Hi Saphyre
hi saphyre
Have had plenty in the past, as well as dogs, but am petless at present - very weird!
thanks lynxx and egg-still trying to work those out
I have been owned by cats in the past but I am petless now also
Thanks Eggcorn ! never would have worked that out (now to look at what it means!)
how sad-to be catlesss!
ty, eggcorn.. needed that one.. never heard of it!
I am never happy without my pets, will have to rectify Annie
yw
I agree Eva so I will probably get over the the shelter and bring some royalty home soon
with the sa8-are we talking the musical instrument with the high letter tile in it?
I have a cat who owns the rest of us and a dog who thinks he is a cat - but I love them both
sa8 means living or growing amongst rocks !
Yes Eva
got it! Thanks!
I have a very sweet old cat that cleans the labrador's ears and snuggles up on the dog bed with him, goes out for a walk with him too.. they are buddies
Parish - phantom word
back again guys - just in time for the sa8 clue - thanks!
that's what my two do also - but the cat(tinkerbella) will chase the dog (Dakota) around the house if he doesn't want to be cleaned - he loses every time
We are also petless, we had a rabbit for years that passed away last year.
Good morning Wolvie
hi wolvie

Hi, saphyre
Monring Charm
Hi Charm, bye Lynx
morning*
Hey sugar, Mom
caffeine must not have hit yet; can't find words!!
it's an al*** landscape today, charm. :-)
methinks this is a tuffy grid, charm!
sigh. And with a headache, too. oh, what's life without a challenge.
Time to make breakfast. Bye for now.
bye Mom
bye Mom. We had take-out for breakfast: Hardees biscuits with gravy. mmmmmmm
I am not going to finish today. We are off to my daughter's house for the weekend but I am such an addict the first thing I am doing is babbling..
that's the spirit, Annie. lol
Bye Mom
I probably won't finish either - lots of pre-holiday cooking , prep, and life in general going on. :-)
charm, I love biscuits and gravy, cant get that in new york..always have that when I am in florida
never had bisquits & gravy until i moved from NY to MD
yes, but when I'm in NY, I gorge myself on DUnkin Donuts, which we don't have here.
Charm, saw your message as I was leaving (always have to look for one more word), all the Hardee's closed in our area several years ago.
Mom, I think I might have to move away from any place without a Hardees....
aah, dunkin donuts, what a way to go....and their coffee is great too
we have dunkin donuts in MD but they don't taste the same as they did in NY
we do have Dunkin' Donuts though ... they have Baskin Robbins Ice Cream in with them. What a combination
nice combo :)
Our oldest feels the same way, when ever he goes to Louisville he stops at a Hardee's
saphyre, just read about your cat calming your dog during storms--how sweeet! One of my dogs is totally terrified of thunder--maybe we need to borrow a friend's cat when the clouds roll in! :-)
so, at the moment, all of us are in need of a sugar-caffeine rush.
The store I miss the most though is Stew Leonards in CT
Hey, Unea
morning, charm
morning
hi une
lol Une - it might just work :)
hi pam
hi une and pam
Must google London attractions now, I'll be back!
hey, wolvie! and pam and annie!
Hi, Pam
Hi Uneaixoise & Pam Now, I am really leaving - word will have to wait. Bye again
hi, wolviw, charm, une, annie, and all
bye, mom!
bye again, Mom. :-)
saphyre, Stew Leonard is awesome....i will be close by there and always bring home their turkey corn chowder *drooling*
never heard of Stew Leonard...
I'm jealous Annie! I love that place - I lived about 20 minutes from there when I lived in NY - on the CT border
so, it's on the other side of CT than I am familiar with... that is why!
Pam - it is like the disney of food stores
lol
hmm - I will have to check out Stew's when next I am up NE way
robotic chickens laying eggs, chaquita banana & twinkey the kid singing, a dairy carton band, etc etc
so long babblers...on my way
have fun Annie!
bye, annie
bye annie - have a great day
bye, Annie
bye, annie!
later, Annie..
bbl
An old favorite of mine was a donut chain up in NY years ago - Mayflower Shoppe - the coffee mugs had a slogan on them.... as you wander on through life brother whatever be your goal keep your eye upon the donut and not upon the hole,
bye pam
I can still smell those donuts !

Good morning, all. I've been doing this for three weeks and so many of you have been tremendous helpers. Could someone tell me what a "fish" means? :-)!
I thought lahr was accepted in the past?
Hi Scarlet
what you get slapped with for the obvious, Scarlet. :-)
so did I charm, odd
Scarlet, today there is the name of a fish among the words.
fish = an obvious word that you overlooked gets you a whack with a fish..
a big, stinky fish sometimes..
50 to go - be back later
Usually, the fish of choice for being whacked is a tuna.
or a mackerel
... or even a frozen fish.:)
or little stinky oily fishies . . .
bye saphyre
bye saph
bye :)
you go for the big ouch, jac. :-)
maybe just a guppy
bye saph
OOOOH! Then I should get hit with the entire catch sometimes. Duh! And many times... LOL, and boy, do I qualify. Frozen sounds good! TY, all!
later, saph..
I have many bruises, Scarlet. :-)
'Bye for now, saphyre.
Hi, Charm, et al. From all your descriptions, do I get to have a good whack from a Big Bag of canned salmon?
have you spotted the sa7 fish, scarlet?
Just whacking myself with a halibut now for only just finding ho5/12, plural of ho4/5 (one who gives a party)!
We all take turns with the fish. Last night, it was because I missed 'feet'.
this self whacking has got to stop. :-)
Aloy: Yes I have. Do I HAVE to get pounded with it?
LOL, Wolvie.
no, lol...
shir isn't a verb? as in shirred eggs?
take your hint from the past tense spelling . . .
Charm - add a letter.
I got the blouse thingy
am I going to need that fish?
a different letter. :-)
What are sh***ed eggs? I've heard of sh***ing elastic.
fish me
uh, yeah, probably . . .
Charm - WHACK!
I thought shi**ed eggs were a brit thing, something like coddled.
baked in ramekins

You were great. I got it after you said the wall hanging. I looked it up in the reverse dictionary,

we found hana at Benihana's restaurant when she was only 2-3 weeks old and hand fed her, didn't know what to name her until we figured out if she was a girl or a boy!
Aloy is so right... shelter babies are my specialty
i went to the shelter a lot this week to see if she was there, yesterday we went to look at a siamese and the gal that works there picked her up and said o, she's sick, and when I held her she was hot. Then the gal literally threw her back in the cage and didn't act like she was gonna help her!!
en6 please?

Touchdown, Wisconsin!!!
cool photo, pappa, i went to UWGB in the 70's
are you from montana origianlly? if so, what took you from there to UWGB? Actually, if you aren't from wisconsin at all, what was the draw to UWGB?
I'm from Montana, wanted to see something out of state. I was in an exchange program and UWGB looked interesting, as a sort of alternative education
I did a Social Work internship in Manitowoc
cool! I did a similar sort of program in Washington DC... But I never went to a UW school. I also went out of state. But I do love living in Madison
It was an odd time to be in Wisconsin, just a year or two after the math building in Madison was bombed.
Oh yeah... It's still talked about now and then, but that was before my time, so I don't remember that in person
The whole university system had rules prohibiting large gatherings of students so the only student union building on campus was a long walk from the main campus
wow! what a strange time that must have been!
Everything else was connected by underground tunnels because it's so cold in GBay
Bart Starr picked me up when I was hitch-hiking from the airport (common for students because there was no publice transportation). He was the quarterback at the time.
awesome harpjane
SWEET!!!!
It was the all-time worse season the Packers ever had, I think. Dan Devine was the coach. Lombardi had just left.
And there were no Sunday church services when the Packers had a home game.
for all the wonderful history and tradition that the packers can claim, they sure have had some rough patches. lol
I must admit I'm more of a cheeshead now than I was in 1974
And I never followed the Badgers at all. Madison has a pretty good harp school in the music department.
you know... I always looked at wisconsin as a place to ecape from, until I moved out of state... man! after 4 years of college, I couldn't wait to get back here! lol
the U.P. and upstate Wisconsin--probably the only place I could stand to live other than western Montana
do you live in a city in montana, or rural area?
well, my "rule for self" is to have breakfast before noon, so I'd better go. There aren't really cities in Montana but I live south of what we call a city (Missoula) in a small town called Hamilton.
I know missoula... not hamilton, though...anyway, enjoy breakfast!

Oh, yeah. Rents out land to neighboring farmers, susbsistence-hunts (a little! not enough to subsist on).

Well! Cherry! All my icons are hamsters. And today's theme was charitable causes, so I found a hamster to wave a flag for PFLAG.org LOL, Pappa!

The other night I had to cry Uncle... i think it was Thursday... my brain hurt and there were about forty two thousand words left
Welcome back, Dorens.

hi pam
That is the best way to play Babble--with high serum levels of opiates on board.
Did the drugs help, and did you actually do it?
Hi Pam--how goes it?
sounds horrid, Dorens! I was at a middle school play thursday and missed babbling altogether
i have 56 left now and will mkae a valiant effort (no opiates,just lots of ibu and etodolac, cortisone, etc)
LOL, scrabbler!
i don't know if the drugs helped, but i did do it (lots of clues from others must have contributed mightily)
Well, it is fair, Scrabbler, thanks for asking
fair is better than it could be,, right pam?

el 7/28?
hk, the attack ads have gotten to where they are parodies of themselves - the "NYPD Blue' music - the unflattering photo, ominous voiceover - MAD Magazine couldn't do ti better.
I have two of them that I hear with....
plus **** cloth for painting
hk, protein in the skin that makes it "stretchy"
stretchy stuff in your waistband--change the last letter (el7)
OH! THanks, Mom, and Fran!
Ankh.... if you have pain in your hearing appendages, you use medicine... ea7/36
there's a funny election ad in MA for guv-- a cartoon in which a person asks why the big dig is billions above budget, a which point the candidate tucks his head firmly where the sun don't shine & runs around in circles...
yw ankh!
hi lib!
Glad you got it, Ank
TY to Metal also!
lol melon - yesterday, i think it was 20/20 had a segment on how truck commercials were being made - with scenes of 9/11, war in the middle east, katrina ??? seriously??? to sell a stupid truck???
it's only aired after10 pm
hi, sorry to bug again, but....clue please for sa8, 65?
that's funny lib, i wonder if it's on YouTube?
brb
Helen, that Chevy commercial enrages me. We will never buy Chevy. How DARE they use 9/11 and Rosa Parks for that! (and they can only use her image because she's DEAD now, shame, shame, shame on them).
yikes. hk - all i can say is my BS indicator went tilt weeks ago.
maybe fran
Clinton's musical instrument + one wooden scrabble piece
emusing, start with an instrument and add what's on the bathroom walls
hmm. thanks, i will mull on this
Bad enough for politicians to use war scenes, etc. But to sell TRUCKS? The 9/11 families must be appalled; I wish they could sue Chevy for every last nut and dolt in their PR department, and every last nut and bolt out in the factory. SHAME.
got it! thanks, fran
Nut and dolt!!! LOL LOL
cool emusing!
TY, Scarlet. But I really am furious. Nothing anyone can do to stop them, either.
ankh write to them and let them know that you will tell everyone you meet that you won't buy a truck sold on the blood of the innocent
I'm right on the same page, but getting older... my fury is aimed at the idiots who rip into one another and NEVER tell us what they would do differently!
what is total points value for today's grid?
agreed ank and bonkler
three thousand one hundred sixty-four
Bonkler, that's a great way to phrase it, thanks, I will.
sorry, my three key doesn't work!

I onl yhave fourty words...this is miserable
Hi, Metaleather. How are you?
well Scarlet,ty, and how are you this evening?
dorrit, i was telling zTink how many points there are today.
Nah, Uniquity, this is a complicated grid, with all the repeated letters.
did you find all the words?
zTink, did you see that?
bbl have to turn off the computer to get the cat furballs out of the computer mouse....
yes, i'm done dorrit
I just found out that the Thanksgiving table will have an extra eight... and so happy!! I'll cook for two weeks... and love it, love it!!

dorrit, i get help from lickety's babble clues and from the great people in the chat log!
well, yes bonkler, but that's not how i finish! :-)
what are lickety's babble clues?
GG, or6/18 is another name for the far ea** (not west)
dorrit, there is a link underneath the grid in "friends of babble"
WTG FranMag. 63 left for me and I'm getting dumber by the second.!
back - scrolled back to read log - glad others share my opinions
thanks Fran, I'll try
the first le 4/5?
lento
GG, or4/4 sounds like spanish for hour, but with an extra consonant
bichon, when you let someone borrow money you are le4ing it to them
at first i used to blame my generation, all these people who were told mba's were the road to riches & then thinking up all kinds of frivilous stuff in desparate effort to keep their jobs, but now i think the 'idiot torch' had passed to another generation
GG, or5/12, or***pedic shoes
ty bichon :)
GG, or4/4, table scraps
the first le 4/5
hi guys.
hi smooth!
el 5/10?
oh, sorry bichon, le + abbrev. for 60 minutes
Hey, smooth. LSU just pulled off a whizbang finish!

thanks Fran
tx sp!
thank you HL
yw bichon
err... HK
Tennessee
cool! that would've been a good one to watch!
nido
It was a head-pounder, improbable and thoroughly riveting.
Who were you pulling for?
Tennessee
And you, smooth?
I was pulling for wisconsin. ;) I like watching other games, but unless it's the Badgers, I'm pretty apathetic aboiut who wins. At that point I'm more interested in watching a good game
that cartoon political ad is on youtube-- listed under Christy Mihos ad
My apathy only extends to the CA and TX teams.
thanks lib!
OOPs, and FL, too
lol
one of the stuffed heads looks just like his opponent, Kerry Healy (blonde)
thankks fran...still stuck on table scraps and far ea**...but got the others
okay i went to lickety but i don't understand the numbers - help!
any brits in the chat right now?
dorrit or6/18 = first two letters - or 6 letters total and 18 points the clue for the word: far east or i got spun around and had to re-or**** myself

smooth - it would be 2am in the morning over there
thanks i think i can work with it, bonkler
well... some may still be up. lol
Thank you Bonkler
I would be. :)
got em all
ty
LOL smooth - even babblers need sleep (I think)
omg - i must still be sick - couldn't find hi4/6 - hi** & seek - yikes!
second ri6/21 please
We're all having a grid like that hk - except Fran LOL
ang... that's just a theory at this point, I'm not sure it's been proven yet. lol
lol ang
*takes a moment to clean glasses*
I was a little hesitant about putting that theory forward for sure smooth
its 1 am her
hehehe
lar... wales?
or table scraps? and Spanish hour? I'm stuck!
Larlielou... you may be able to answer my curiosity: Tommorow... errrr... today for you is guy fawkes day, or fireworks day. Is it something that is still commonly celebrated?
hi angb! i was watching the youtube ad, didn't see you coming in.
73 left...
Oh, got Spanish hour in ten seconds, dang.
did you see it fran?
very much so
ankh table scrap or is where ships arrive minus the p
yes lib, it's hilarious!
I just learned of it today. I think that's a really cool celebraton!
I know where ships arrive... or * * huh, still not...
No matter which consonant I double.
I couldn't believe it when I first saw it!
Hi Fran - Sunday here and I am floating in and out, when I get too bored picking up after the kids.
ankh, don't double the consonants
spanish hour is or extra hook first vowel
great for children its been going on for the last couple of days
Hi everyone 21 to go here
how long is it celebrated for? not just nov. 5th?
Thank you, got Spanish hour, Bonkler. Fran, OR plus cross plus something else???
Smooth - Guy Fawkes day is still celebrated here too. But the government is threatening a bnan on fireworks so it may be the last.
yes ankh, ends with plural letter
or cross plural
hi peri!
Maybe they think we will blow them up - now there's a thought!
Frank, thank you thank you, Bonkler too, NEVER heard of that.
a ban on fireworks??? WHAT??? fire hazard or something?
need first two th5/12 please
HA!
it shows up a lot ankh, you'll see it again! :-)
^^ sigh ^^ I'm sure I will, Fran.
peri, one th5/12 is possessive pronoun
the other just change the last letter, old word for landowner.
Fran I have that as the 3rd th5/12
We must protect the children - 1 or 2 get hurt each year - hmmm - it seems that there are many irresponsible people. Don't get me started - we stop things here because a small minority of parents can't supervise their kids.
the third th5/12 is skinny with a vowel at the end
that is the one I have Fran
ang - there is a ban on firworks in chicago & one july 4th i watched from the top of a friend's highrise - the comment was made that it looked just like beirut
gotta love a litgious society...
can't figure out the possessive pronoun th5
I used to love as well as fear fireworks. But my GOSH, now they scare me... so many parents get drunk and THEN start lighting them... a parent kittycorner from us had his kids firing bottle rockets at MY roof, not on purpose, just stupid and/or high.
study king james peri
peri it was all th*** fault
the second th5/12 is how you say something belongs to those people...that is th*** stuff
We have sparklers at 4th of July and that's it. Area too dense for anything else except municipal fireworks.
one the other (or maybe the same) hand - we take up a collection on our block & the kid next door goes to indiana & buys between $2500 - $3000 worth of illegal fireworks - cops will stop at the end of our block just to watch the display :)
Good clue, Pappa.
ok thanks Fran and bonkler, got the 2nd th5/12 still looking for the first one
peri, just change the last letter to another consonant
Helen, out in Franklin Park, the new population there fires actual GUNS for July 4 and New Year's, straight up... they forget, the bullets come down, and some years, they kill someone.
good lord! we have massive fireworks celebrations for independence day. it's illegal except for the sanctioned events... butr like that stops anyone. lol
Peri, what are thy goods? They are th***.
I personally am scared of fireworks - I just don't get off on the government telling people what to do ... which ours does far too much.
finally found the first th5/12 thanks everyone
hi everyone! : )
Hi TO
hi TO!
cool peri!
hello TO -
hey owl
hi TO
What a great pumpkin, Owl!
{{{{Metal}}}}}
pappa - you went pro! congrats
yeah ankh - those are the real idiots - i was trained to shoot by someone who was in the army & he had me learn to disassemble, clean & reassemble a gun before we ever went to the range - that's what i think they should do - if you're caught with a gun & can't do those things, off to jail you go
hi meta, didn't hear you come in
and franklin park used to be such a nice, sleepy burb - i had a friend who used to rent a house there
hey wow - the gang's all here! whoops - my oven is calling me
hiya meta, to, daisy, everyon else who came in while i was ranting :)
can't see the ta5/12
peri, i think it's a musical term
Oh yeah, yay for Pappa going pro! Much more fun.
peri: think "late to class" but change the last letter to a real vowel
yes - i love to's pumpkin too!
take the root (ta4/4 that's after it) and add another consonant before the fist letter.
thanx ankh
Helen, the new people are all nice, but there's this tradition of gunfire=fireworks that I REALLY hope gets lost in the assimilation SOON.
sorry, that's supposed to be "last" letter
Of course, now we can SEE you, Pappa **leers at the handsome young fella!**
got the ta5/12 thanks papa and Fran
He is a nice look fellow, isn't he Ank?
ankh, you're so funny!
Helen, when TO comes back, I'll switch my icon to the one Dear One carved for me.
yw peri
lol well, mostly I plan on using my on phots for my icon... so burn my imgae in your head. lol
I will! :)
hate to sound all racist & classist - but seems to be that gunfire is prevalent in lower class black neighborhoods
god I can't type... "my own photos"
the 1st ar 6/21 pls?
hello evryone i've ereturned once more
Hi Reese's
helen don't tell dick cheney, he'll feel left out
daisy, an ar**** admirer
HK: I think ou just summed up my neighborhood. lol except the gun shots aren't limited to the 4th.
Franklin Park has different demographics.
hi reese's!
Hey, Pappa, we'll look forward to admiring your work. I have "changed clothes" but you may have to refresh to see pumpkin icon.
lol bonkler - good point
ty Fran...fish pls :)
LOL, Bonkler!! (re Cheney)\
Off to play Uno with my 6 year old LOL. See ya later

helen, when i went to the list there were whole two letter combos i was missing!
niters mom
Night, Ang! Hi, Inge!
I will hang my head in shame with 61 left and call it a night. Thanks, all, for the chat and the amazing clues.
are you sure scarlet? we can help with clues.
good night scarlet, and good luck tomorrow!
Hey... is my pumpkin SMILING a toothy smile? or is it SKULL?? bwah hah hah hah hah.... Dear One carved it for me.
Night, Scarlet.
night scarlet!
ankh - it's very cool! what is pflag?
ankh, i thought it was the Punisher from DC comics.
Helen, PFLAG is Parents & Friends of Lesbians & Gays -- was for my hamster icon carrying the rainbow flag for today's charities.
or was it marvel?
What's tomorrow's theme, anyone know?
Oh, FranMag, I know... that's just it.. you can and will help me... it
Fran, maybe it is! I saw the template on line... I will have to go look at the comics.
good lord... tomorrow is guy fawkes day theme. lol
is worse than a bowl of popcorn... just one more kernal. I must rest. Big dinner tomorrow. You are all so sweet.
54 left
okay scarlet! good night!
ankh...good cause
goooo GG!
Well, I'll have to go look up Guy Fawkes. Yes, Scarlet, knowing when to quit is important... don't let the rest of us addicts drag you dowwwwnnnnn....
TY, Bonkler. :)
what a wierd bunch of coincidences! I just found out about the holiday by watching V for Vendetta tonight, then I realize that it's tomorrow, and the thesme tomorrow is guy fawkes day.wierd!
Maybe the V people planned it this way?
ankh - hah - something is should know since we are pflags here - hubby's 'good' son is gay, the other 3 are rotten as could be
funny smooth, i thought you were asking about it because it was tomorrow's theme!
lol no... I had that movie on my computer for nearly a week... just got around to watching it, and it revolves around guy fawkes. lol
v for vendettta is a good film, who knew natalie portman could give an intense well crafted performance after seeing her in the star wars drek
LOL, Helen! Oh, well. Life is like that.
Ank... you are such a big help. LOL. 'nite
HAHA! well put bonk
Doogie Howser just came out yesterday. Thank you, Scarlet, see you soon!
Hey Gang - I'm back once again to TRY and finish this grid
hi kae!
hi faerie
Hi Fran
Can anyone tell me, are the people celebrating on Guy Fawkes' side, or against him?
Hi Smoothie :)
i liked natalie portman in that movie with julia roberts & clive owen ,can't remember the name
with blair in office they may well be planning to restage it
I think on his side
irst sh6/21?
i think it's against him ankh, they burn him in efigy.
sh 6/21 is a woman's name
meant first sh6/21
peri, what they call a girl in australia
eep! really? I would have like to think the other way...a gainst an oppressive government
thaks got the sh6/21
i'll have to go look it up, you're probably right smooth.
Darn, Fran, Smooth, Bonk, I can't tell... still reading.
sh5/14?
Fran, are you done?
yes peri
peri, first sh5/14 is sh + "finish"
thanks Fran, 7 to go
i can't believe i have 196 words and i've only grayed two boxes
Huh... looks like mostly an anti-Catholic thing... not sure I can go along with it. Although one Catholic site says you can re-work the holiday by making Parliament cookies, and then ... well, here it is: http://www.godspy.com/reviews/Nove mber-5-Guy-Fawkes-Day-Go-Out-with-a-Ba ng-by-John-Zmirak.cfm
the site i just looked up says it's not clear whether they celebrate guy's execution or his attempt to overthrow the government.
lol bonkler - not going to get much better - i have 207 & 4 greys
getting tired here, 1st sh4/5 please
i guess we'll have to ask some brits, maybe jac will come on soon.
i would think that since its on the night of the attempted plot, it would be celebrating him....
i have to admit i don't know anything about guy fawkes
peri, lower part of your leg.
fran - i'm sure jacula will have a definite opinion :)
Yeah, let's ask Jac, she'll know. Well, Pappa, I'm just not able to figure it out but it sounds like what Fran said at first, burning him in effigy doesn't sound like they were on his side! :)
thanks Fran, it was right in front of my face
Peri, lower front part. If THAT is in front of your face, how on EA*** are you typing/
?
peri is very flexible lol
yes ankh, but the site also says it may be done tongue in cheek, you know how cheeky those brits are!
LOL ankh!!!!!!
yes - those brits are a cheeky bunch - hahahaha
we are?
ankh, you're a hoot!
8-)
ooh, let's ask kth!
hi all, didn't realise I had left babble open, thought I may as well play
ask me what
kth, we're trying to figure out if celebrating guy fawkes day is because you are for him or against him?
I can't believe that this puzzle has the sh** word...the cu** word last week too...they are naughtier than I thought!!
KTH! We need to know about Guy Fawkes Day. Is it a celebration for people on his side, or against him?
or if you just like fireworks
against him, he committed treason
GG, don't forget the plural.
missing third sh5/12
oh yeah...
Hmm--HMMM. Thank you, KTH.
peri, change the last letter of the sh5/14
how about sa8, 65
thanks kth, that clears that up.
the point of it was so people didn't forget what happens if you try to commit treason, as far as I know, kids are taught about how terrible he was but noone really talks about why it's a holiday
thanks Fran, 5 left
dorrit, start with instrument that clinton played and end with what's on the bathroom wall or a scrabble playing piece.
goooo peri!
yeah - so why then exactly is it a holiday ? it's not like we have benedict arnold day, hahaha
thanks fran
hehe
but you do have eggs benedict!
Hmm, encyclopedia sounds like he didn't get to do anything before capture. But thanks! We didn't know.
Is that the SAME benedict, Bonkler?
I don't know a huge lot about it but apparently that king wasn't all that great anyway
wasn't he the traitor with a rich creamy sauce on top?
HA!
missing an sh5/12 near the end, have the plural of "poops"
FIREWORKS FOR ME, FOR ME, FOR ME,
NM found it
yay inge!
congrats inge inge inge
yay inge!!!
also guy fawkes was just the guy who got caught, there was a whole conspiracy behind it, so I don't know why everyone only remembers him
so, at this point it's probably celebrated because everyone just likes fireworks! :-)
it looks like a lot of his support started to fall away the last day or two.
hey fran - i know what clinton played and what's on the bathroom floor but theres still another letter ...
definitely, and toffee apples
That King -- James 1 -- headed up some Catholic persecutions, so... hmm. Well, every culture likes to have some kind of fire fests at this time of year, and at solstice.
Dorrit, use 4 letters for Clinton instrument.
dorrit, throw in a vowel after the instrument
oh thanks ank, i knew it was a James, but I didn't know which one
Inge, you are SO good! YAY!
history isn't my strong point in case you haven't noticed
well, anywhoo... here's a new icon to guy fawkes day!
still missing an sh5/12 and sh6/21 after the plural "poops"
oh bugger..hiccups
don't feel bad kate... it was one of my majors in college, and I didn't know GF day
most people call it bonfire night now rather than guy fawkes day/night
peri, one is a plural and the sh6 is a place of worship
Fran, have the place of worship
unless it's the sh5/6 combo you're missing
I think I am missing the combo, hint please
sh+ hot ceral and plural
cereal, that is...
thanks bash, was trying to figure out a good clue
I can go along with "Bonfire Night" just fine. Although the Catholics traditionally had theirs on Midsummer Eve, calling it St. John's Eve. A fire to light all night, the shortest night of the year. And jumping over it was supposed to give luck for a year.
jumping into it not so much
I am missing the 4-5 combo right before the cereal one...any clues?
Thanks so much Bash, that's it for me, finally FIREWORKS. Going to bed early, see you all tomorrow
If we said "baby pigs" for sh*** +pl, would anyone get it?
lol bonk!
oops i said a word
yay peri!!!!
PERI! Yay for Peri!
see you later!
congrats peri!!
Congrats and yw, peri. goodnight!
GG, on the list that's the "potty" word and plural
i would have ankh
I don't get it ank
I had it, and didn't remember that I had it...duh!
it's also a cross between a sheep and a g***
Yay, Fran! Greengeeny, that's what that word means, and if you lived on a farm, you'd have gotten it. But I think most people these days have not got much background in farming.
back.... 81 to go
ankh, i just know it from crossword puzzles.
goooo TO!
37 left!!
Fran, I think that's a rural legend... they're not fertile together.
gooooo GG!
TO...I have something for you...
109 left! Hi Everyone!
hi geeny!
it must be done in a lab then, because it's in the dictionary.
hi jee!
TEMPLE! Hit refresh, I changed icons just for you! Or just click my icon to see what it really is now -- Dear One's Skull-or-Smile Punisher Pumpkin!
hi smooth:)
hi JW!
ohhh ank - i like that
hi ya Frannie
what is the theme today? I can't tell
toda it is still charities... I switched early, for guy fawkes day tomorrow
jee, it's charitable organizations, but not everyone has an icon for it.
oh okay, it is really hard to tell. The pumpkins are throwing me.
Well, hodag is in the dictionary too and jackalope and they're not real either! :) Goats are bovids, swine are suids, they can't... unless it's like putting fish genes in a tomato. :) :)
I'm giving up and going to bed before I die of exhaustion
night kth!
Txs for GF help, KTH
yw night all
lol g'nite kate
Who is Guy Fawkes?? What is the day about? Never heard of it.
nite kth
hello
is 6/18 please
he tried to blow up king james 1 and the houses of parliament
i'm sure you're right ankh
hi Smiley,
GF=Catholic plotter against King James the First, tortured and executed and now burned in effigy, but you can also call it Bonfire Night.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawke s
carlir, first or second one?
wow...can't believe that I never heard of it
you guys have lost me. I am so far behind with my icon, O think I am in a different game
both please fran
Fran, I love hybrid animals, that's why I'm all over this one. AND I worked in a farrow barn when I was a kid, (a human kid, not a goat-kid) and so I know my sh****!
NEW SIMPSONS TOMORROW!!!!!!
GreenGeeny, it's a British thing. Well, congrats, Pappa. Hey, Pappa, do you give camera advice?
i love your icon inge!
hello to all of you
good grid today!
sorry - had to go attend to dogs
It still left over from the lights and lampshades
Inge, did you dress Nika for Halloween? Hello, Enomis!
is6/18, first one is... is + vowel + metal for cans, then plural for the 7
did it get settled then? guy fawkes, sinner or saint?
the one that dont vave the opposite of heaven
Oh, Helen, when you have time, put your dogs in your profile so I don't keep asking every time I see you.
sorry, i guess the second is6 is is6/21
I have fireworks - did it all by myself and I am so proud!
^ dog-crazy, but dogless right now ^
anybody needs clues?
kth says sinner helen.
Y A Y E N O M I S !!!
yay enomis!!!!
how about the tr8 please?
No, on our street there are no trick or treaters, not even halloween decorations. Downtown Northville does it for all by blocking off downtown and giving away free donuts and cider.
last two so's?
ankh - i would love to, but i am being dragged kicking & screaming into the 21 century - i think it's amazing i can even get from place to place on the computer - i don't have a digital camera & the magical stuff you need to get the souls from the camera into the computer
so + crossed letter and plural
tr8 is prefix for three + what's at the top of your neck minus A + sun god
Well, maybe that's safer, but... *sigh*
tr8: tr + vowel + over the ***ge + **ts (like mice)
the one before it is the plural of so 4/5
LOL, Helen! :) No, I meant just text: names, breeds, color, like that. :)
thanks for the tr clues...another one that I see why I couldn't monkey it on my own
qy
I mean ty
any other clues before i go?
i black & tan 100 lb female shepherd, buffy: 1 black 120 lb male shepherd, ziggy; 1 black & tan 45 lb resecue mutt, mr. face; & 1 6 lb cream & orange pomeranian, ginger-snap-dragon-owski :) - if you want to see what ginger looks like, luvmypom has one in her icon that looks very similar
TY all
ho 6 and ho 7 pair please?
I can't figure out the second ti4/5. Can anyone make it super obvious for me?
change the order of the last two letters from the one before
Ahh, I know Poms; Mr. Face ist ein Heinzhund, ja? 57 varieties? Or an All-American Happy Dog? Is Ziggy all black?
wtg enomis !!!!!!!!!!!!!
her hair was ti** with a red ribbon
thank you.
ta7/32?
fran - thx, i'm still going to wait for jacula's version
indrapr
TY, Enomis, I didn't have it either; Inge ty also
ho6 and 7: it's an exterior flower that starts like the ho** of a party
hi, again!
past tense of linger
jee, ho6 is plural of ho5, the plant
carli, it's not outside, it's in****
inge - that is soooooo sad, halloween dead in your neighborhood
ho7 is mean or unwelcoming
fran, I am looking for the ho 6 and ho7 pair...oh you clued it now...thanks :)
The ho + pl is a shade plant (for the 5 and 6) all green.
no, the city and township pool their forces ina downtown party, otherwise the houses are so far apart, kids need to get dirven by their parents'
HK tr8/50 tr*angle - angle, + what you put your hat on - A, + one rogent - T
Pappa, you still with us?
ankh - sorry, i'm slow in the chat tonight - yes ziggy is solid black & mr. face is a mix of shepherd & something else, beagle, or some kind of houd
yeah ankh... on and off
someone threw mr. face away when he was just 10 weeks old, & with all the signage & trouble i went through, if they wanted to find him, they would have, anyway
TA7/32 please?
Pappa, if I sent you a question about what kind of digital camera to get -- would you answer it, or is that not-your-kind-of-thing at all? Looks like you use real cameras.
He sounds like a good boy, Helen.
minski, lingered
minski - waited around
the first or 4
ta 7: past tense of verb meaning to linger or delay, relatess to a kid being tardy for school
hehe... I have 3 cameras, one digital, and all SLR cameras... that said, I should be able to oint you in a good direction, if you let me know what you are looking for in a camera and your budget
ta 7/32 to delay or be tardy in acting, starting, coming, etc.; linger or loiter.
rhymes with what you do when you go to the chapel...ta7
Thanks inge. I didn't see that one.
wb angb!
or + **n juan
thanx
when he was little, he had the hugest snout, i swear it's never grown, just his body caught up, also his nose was pink (no longer), one eye went one way, one went the other (since resolved), one ear up & one ear down (that still happens) he also had a very pronounced black widow's peak (since faded), but he was the weirdest looking thing ever -he's grown up quite cute though & is a great, happy, obedient doggie :)
Well, my email is in my profile, but it's my Babble name @verizon.net -- if you pop me a note, I'll write back with the question and be oh so grateful for guidance.
Hi there Fran - just go back after being beaten in Uno 6 games to 1 by my 6 year old LOL
just shoot me an email at smooth_pappa@hotmail.com
lol
You've got a proper PACK of dogs, Helen.
Txs, Pappa!
ok goodbye all see you tomorrow!
Bye, Enomis, thanks for clues!
night enomis!
thanks for the help Eno
inge - ahhh, i see, then that makes sense :)
may i have a clue for ar5/12 please? ty
TO, passion
or ar + opening minus an O
Thx Fran - never get those with US ending
ty fran!
ankh - i feel bad you want a dog & don't have one - but i firmly believe that dogs & their human 'find' each other when the time is right :)
yw TO and angb!
hk, is little snap-dragon-owski all recovered?
That's it for me for today. Thanks for all your help. I lurked quite a bit today...didn't contribute much to the clues. Thanks again to all those that helped me find them all!!!
yay autumn!! good night!
Well done autumn
fran - wow, you remembered! impressive!!! yep, she's all pretty much back to normal, her coat is taking a while to grow in where they shaved her & she also no longer sleeps in my bed with me (the sceme of the crime) but rather in her bed - it's weird, she'll lay next me until it's almost time to turn off the light & the off she goes to her own bed
it only took me 6 hours!!! (well, between walking the dog, going out for a smoke, and eating)
Helen, we just fostered a dog for two weeks, that should hold me for a while -- she went to her PERFECT family, we're very happy about that. She's in the woods now -- her new family has 275 acres for weekends! WEEKENDS!
st7/32 please
But thanks for the sympathy, Helen. YAY Autumn Moon!
that's good helen! i'm sure it was traumatic for her.
21 left..
Kitrine st 6/21 + abbrev for not
162 words, still haven't grayed a single box
all t words
Txs, Poppa, mailed it. :)
ankh - that sounds awfully similar to 'the dog went to the farm' LOL - but i'm glad for the pup - how do you foster dogs?
kitrine, it's a raspy breathing noise.
Two ways: you know from the start you will be a foster; or you think you're adopting a dog forever, and find out you can't. She was the latter; the pound did not know she could scale a 5' fence as if 'twere nuthin'.
that was st7
I don't quite get that one fran.
st7 sounds like one who st6/21s, but different vowel at the end.
we also take in strays & sometimes lenny will use a serious biter for his guard dog business - once we had 2 dogs who had litters & altogether there were 17 dogs in the house, lol - yep, an experience you only want to go through once
ea7 and el7 please and thanks?
wow ankh - 5' is pretty high - what kind of dog was it?
el7 - think stretchy
Have you the tr 7/32 Kitrine? Add a letter on the front
59 to go - loving the chat, but better get to concentrating on the grid
with a different consonant at the end.
thanks rick...got it...nice clue
ea7s, first one is a compound word, what you hear with + don't **** the ball
as 5/12?
German Shorthaired Pointer (my breed) and only 5 years old with a strong, strong, strong prey drive. She jumped over the 4' fences without even touching; the 5' were almost as fast.
the other two ea7s have to do with our planet
ankh, I'm still looking, but I have found a couple that I'll present to you
Wow, Pappa, so fast! Thank you!! Quite a payoff for one wee compliment! :)
helen, pale
Helen, we'll talk dogs some other grid. 17... wow. Er, whoa. :)
tx fran - DUH !!!!!
helen, or the color of cigarette residue
don"t WHAT the ball?
Kit - ST7/32 = the first 5 letters from the one above + two letter option word
thanks fran...working on the first ea, but needed all of them...
temple, I am with you on that...can't be throw or hit
i clued them too JW.
HA! flattery will get you everywhere, my dear. lol
I know fran...I was thanking you for all of them.
JW and TO, you could "let it fall"
^^ flutters lashes ^^
i have decided i hate this grid.....
Im am with TO....don"t WHAT the ball?
ho 7/32?
oh...yw JW!
oh....thanks again Fran
don't **** out of school
17 left
o fcourse, if i had that dr word it would have been easy
Temple, don't let the ball go suddenly from your hands to ground via gravity. ea+_+ _ _ _ _ the ball
temple?
hk, ho7 is not welcoming or mean
yes geeny? and thanks fran an danhk
thanks ank
fran, on the other ea7 words....what do I do after the planet?
HK - not a friendly environment/situation
TempleOwl, GreenGeeny. Not a temple in a clue. :)
yw TO
YW, RickPerry.
ty fran :)
I have something for you, but I don't know how to give it to you...
JW, one is past tense of it
ohhh - the recipe?
I think you know what it is...
the other ea7 means "from this planet"
Yes!!
did someone say recipe?
do you know how to post to babanon? i'll bet tohers would like it also
don't know how I missed that one ...thanks again to the millionth time :)
I have a recipe for cincinnati chili for temple
My name is very boring. I should go reinvent myself. Course, then I would have to start all over. Oh, maybe next week.
I don't know what babanon is
lol metal - i also have one for pumpkin cake with caramel topping
oooh, would you post here, or on Bab-Anon. I'd like to have it too.
droooooooooooool
green - does it have cinnamon in it?
pa 5/14?
hi MM!
yes
Hi fran.
mmmmmmmmmmcinnamon
"Rick Perry" sounds like a movie star name
hiya musicmmom!
YUMMY
hk, add a vowel to pa4/6
I grew up in Cincinnati.
Skyline can't be beat
Hi helen
those PAs were dumb, monkeys had a hard time with them.
musicmom ,i'm with you . we actuallyhad onein south jersey for a short while
My hubby craves it every now and then and I make it for him...we live near a skyline chili and everyone always thinks I got it to go from there
They can't tell the difference
MMMMm we had a Gold Star here for a while but never skyline. I buy the skyline spice packets at Kroger and make it that way.
metal, are you able to post to babanon? maybe you could help geeny? i have los tthe ability to post
Green if you post the recipe. I would be interested too.There is a link to babanon at the bottom of this page.
I never heard of skyline
gold star is better musicmom
If I can figure out this babanon thing then I will post it.
ankh... check your email in a minute or two.
NO granny - skyline!!!!
RickPerry, yeah, you sound famous; actor, singer, something. You could reinvent this evening, start Sunday as a new you. :)
i'm the mom and i say gold star
Gold Star is too sweet
whatever<eyeroll>
Thank you, Pappa. Oh, you young ones are so quick! (Errr... a compliment, I swear)
skyline is too blah
geeny, it's a forum abd bboard for babblers - there is a recipe string there
never heard of goldstar either
i always think Steve Perry when you're in the chat log Rick.
How are you feeling grannyt?
Could anyone help me with th 2nd ri 6/21?
there sure is! :oD
i'm fine and as soon as tomorrow morning is over I'll be great
HA! I'll take that in the good way. lol
Different second vowel from first ri6...
I heard somebody say CHLIE!
Babbler's Anonymous?
is that where I go?
GG, at babanon, best way is to just post as a guest, i could never get my registered account to work
I am hoping I'm not getting something. Came home from the birthday party with a headache that is going down my shoulders
Yes, GreenG.
Yes green
i posted some christmas cookie recipes last year, and jacs posts a lot ot recipes
Okay...brb
oh ankh... one link I forgot in the email: http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier .jhtml?pq-path=7375&pq-locale=en_US
I have posted a few recipes there also
time for me to hush and type i'll be here lurking
the or 5/10?
I'm supposed to be working on Hannah's Christmas stocking but I'm not sure I want to do the fine needle work with my head feeling like this
have you got it now?
yes
bichon, it's sort of like a bird that starts with or
or like the ar5/10 (little mermaid name)
it only lasts 24 hours so you should be better tomorrow. just lay around for now and take aspirin or advil
thanx
yw bichon
Thanks Ankh but I don't get it - my previous word (ri 4/5) starts with rin
I did just take some tylenol. I have had the headache all day. I took the girls out to Sydney's birthday party. This is the big costume bash --- remember last year the hay ride crashed and we had to walk out of the woods?
anike, ri6/21 is a musical term for slow
so did anything exciting happen this year?
I'm just kind of toying with this grid and relaxing to see if it will go away. I can always sew during the bengals game tomorrow.
No darn it. Joe absolutely refused to take us on a hay ride.
The girls had a blast though. Theresa really does throw a good party
looks like an re word that means slow or hold back
i'm supposed to meet beth and josh for lunch on their way back thru town tomorrow.
cool. Be sure she lets me know how things go
I know nothing about music - sorry
I've got 84 words to go and i'm about to quit.
musicmom - i have never, ever heard of a hayride crashing, sorry, but it sounds kind of funny - was there peppermint schnopps involved?
anike, did you see my second clue?
peppermint schnaps in hot chocolate...yum!
Apple jacks on a hay ride: Cider, cinnamon and Jack Daniels...
musicmom now you'll have to tell the story. I never heard about the schnapps
No helen. this is one of my Kindermusik families. It had been very very rainy last year and the wagon jackknifed in the mud and the wheel fell off.
ri6/21 is ri + re****ed (what they used to call people with learning disabilities)
We all had to walk out of the woods in the dark with a bunch of 2 and 3 year olds. My kids are older (they were 11 and 5 last year) and they helped get people out
The funniest thing was that I had dressed like a baby and had my bedroom slippers on.
I like Applejacks - but we didn't have any on this hayride
Yes Fran - my slow brain is trying to process it - I have 24 word left and should be folding a mountain of clothes so I guess I'm rushing and not thinking
Joe (Sydney's dad) says he is permanently out of the hayride business. We begged him to take us out tonight<G>
music - oh, that's a shame, sounds like quite the ordeal - but after a few years, it'll make for a good story
okay anike! :-)
got it - thanks fran
Really and truly only Joe was traumatized. The rest of us have loved laughing and talking about it all year.
LOL id didn't read the baby part yet _ ROFL !!!!
yw
SA6/18 & SA8/65 please?
They have tons of acres and horses. They give the kids horse rides, cook out hot dogs, have craft tables set up, a nice bonfire for warmth, hot chocolate, tea coffee, cider. it really is a lot of fun
sa6/18 is sa6 solution for contacts
What's better, folding clothes or babbling, doing homework or babbling, cleaning the house or babbling, anything mundane or babbling? Well, I guess the answer is babbling. Since i discovered Babble I have not seen my wife. I imagine I am in good company.
sa8, start with instrument that clinton played and add what's on bathroom floors.
yeah rick - i haven't seen your wife either
rofl hk!!
lol rick perry! welcome to the land of the lost
well I have checked the rankings, the who's online, stid's story (thre is no new chapter), Time to go to bed. Gute Nacht everybody. See you in the morning. Rick , I havent seen your wife either. :):):)
Well I hope not. Clever...
night inge!!
I agree Rick - but i"m the one that yells about the mess
night inge!
sorry - i just couldn't help myself there, LOL
now i know you're feeling better hk!
he he he, that's ok. She probbaly thinks I am surfing for porn anyway.
oh I missed inge! bad stidmama!
hi stid!
hi all,
I had a thought today, that I could put in my profile what the newest chapter is and when I wrote it, so people don't have to go to the story site to find out...
yeah fran - i guess i am !
hi flosey!
hi stid hi flosey
hi Fran! hi all!
Grannyg - are you still here? OU won again today. Can you spell DETROIT?
anyway, off to do that and then I will stop back and chat a while.
hiya stid!
could I have a clue for the second ar5/10 please
I sure can spell it but when are we going????
THanks fran. I wear contacts too.
okay, have to feed the children, be back in a bit.
The bowl game is the day after Christmas
cool minski!
I have that day off but I have to work the rest of the week. this could get a little problematical.
sorry, it's the 3rd ar5/10,
later fran!
Not even at 100 words yet, and I haven't gotten a new word in about 15 miinutes/
I think we have to win the MAC championship first. I'm going to have to go ohiobobcats.com and read up on what needs to happen
tough grid today.
Kent State and Bowling Green both lost today. Which means, we would have to lose both of our remaining two games to completely flush our chances. Even that might not do it.
hi helen! I gather you are back to *your* normal?
hi stid!
OU really has a good chance. I guess OSU won again also. Did you see what happend to Joe Paterno at the Penn State game?
hi pappa!
no I didn't
grany... that was a nasty hit he took!
I couldn't bear to watch it again and again and they just kept showing it. Hope he'll be ok.
wait -- music mom? at night? are you okay?
I keep wanting to put in parrot and silent
No stid - I have a headache
He'll be fine. He's tough! he tried to walk it off..
I just got home from a birthday party and should be sewing.
Holy cow!! The babbler's anonymous is way too confusing...then I come back and can't get back into babble
Got drawn into the chat by Cincinnati Chili.
el 4/5 has me stumped
oh no -- I am so sorry, music mom... *sending calm and quiet energy your way*
being ok is a relative term when you're talking to musicmom. There's ok and then there's ok.
hi everyone
NATASHA! hi! :-D
We're watching ESPN maybe I'll see it.
assuming those are your kids in the icon, music mom? they're cute...
Haha grannyg.
hi Natasha!
hey pappa! how's it going?
I don't think that I can get into that babanon to post the recipe...is there another way?
I had mine up for halloween, if you want I can put the icon back up.
sorry geeny. at least were you able to post? and btw - did you notice thees ae clues there also?
good... working on some newcastle tonight. :) Watched a movie, had a great relaxing day!
That is Hannah in the cowgirl out fit. Her cousin Lindsay in the penguin. Thanks.

Bye granny --- Have a good service in the morning
just a sec...
okay, you might have to refresh to see them. stidgrant on the left, stidmatt on the right.
later grannyg!
do you really have to ask? just insert the usual scenario. flashing lights, people losing their heads.
Wish me luck. I swear there are parts of this thing I've never seen before last Wednesday night. Hope you feel better. Tell the kids and Greg HI.
Stid, I saw you in the grid today... too bad it's not a word. lol
*sigh* always a phantom, never a word!
nat, now you've got me even more curious. lol flashing lights? cops????
nite everyone.
I will do that stid...I will just email the recipe to you and let you post it...it is way to complicated for me to open an account...I tried...then it wouldn't let me in, kept saying I was using the wrong password...I don't know
no you dope! phones.
okay, holler when it's sent, greeny
thanks good night
oh. lol sorry, i was just watching cops. ;) well youll have to fill me in sometime
back to the grid...only 17 left
cops on the phones, Natasha? or EMTs?
good night music mom, hope you feel better rapidly.
or wait...I will send it to you first, then back to the grid
Wonderful costumes and extremely nice looking young men stid.
go greeny go!
The middle two li 5/10 's are eluding me
thanks music mom -- oh, you're not leaving, you were saying good night to your mom. *silly stidmama*
Oh I'm hanging out for a little while longer - just telling granny bye
no stid, nothing so exciting. Just too many customers for the people covering the phones at work--or at least more than the ceo thought was appropriate. can't have someone hold for 10 seconds, youknow...
yep
toni got involved???????????
LOL Natasha -- have been in those situations. So once you get the next person called in there really isn't enough work for everyone and...
Exactly stid!
geeny - check my profile...
pappa--she happened to be there during the two minutes that it was too busy. Actually, I did help out a few times, so I shouldn't be too harsh.
en 6/21 please?
en + something you catch things in
well, at least the day is over. tomorrow is a new one, and hopefully better one, since I'll be there. ;)

Okay...I have to get out of here...my honeybunch is home from work, and I missed him today...owl let me know if you get the recipe...you can email me...use my name at yahoo. com

Nancy Sinatra
but we know you love the nancys. I'm hearing that song right now.
ooh mab - a doctor...

hmmm.... topic is husbands... think I'll sit this one out
I'd like a house elf...
gotta go, headache getting the better of me - will skip flip tonight - hopefully see you all tomorrow

NUT!!!!!
hi nutty!
wise choice, bash
however I still have hope.......
hiyalllll
and I wish you the best there, mamabear
Hey Nutty! me too, house elf that is.
nite flosey -- ben distracted by the grid but mainly by watching Skate Canada -- have you finished? I have 51 left
are they anything like underwear gomes?
you neve rknow what life has in store, bash
yes...cute/ugly buggers, and you don't have to clothe them
hi nut!
i mean gnomes
yes...I do suppose an elf would eat less (leaving more food for me) right?
I'm just chillin with my gnomies
the ta 5/12?
oooh, skating...love it! have they unveiled Dubreuil and Lauzon's free dance?
i'd better get cracking on the grid
bash are they dancers or skaters
I don't think so, bash
send your flag out to the cleaners, nut?
and the house elf is loyal too!
they are ice dancers...really good ones
ta5/12=ta+anagram of r** and reel
my coworker's nephew skates pairs i keep forgetting his name
ta 5,12= stidcky stuff on roads + hair **
they're both, TO
what channel? that may be him
thanx bubba
jili, i mean ice dancers as opposed to pairs skaters
yw
it's on in Canada right now, but not in the US
i am missing the ra4/5 before the one that saounds like anger
then
ra4/5 ra** and pilage the land
ra4,5 to sexually attack
ra 4/5 - when a man forces himself on a woman
When a man's an empty kettle He should be on his mettle And yet I'm torn apart Just because I'm presumin' That I could be kind of human If I only had a heart
sex without consent
well i have missed EVERY word that goes up into that corner tonnight...ty for all of the clues!
poor tinman
yw TO
why the steel suit tonite, torg?
you're better off without one tor
different rules for ice dancers and pairs -- no throws for dancers, or big lifts, or unison, more tricky footwork and just plaln beauty and musicality IMHO
no worries owl
you know i missed the company but i really didn't mis babble when i was away
I forgot to change from yesterday ..
Mamabear, chillin' with the gnomies? Aiiieee!
true mab - cuz you give it to someone and they just end up breaking it
I'd be tender, I'd be gentle And awful sentimental Regarding love and art I'd be friends with the sparrows And the boy that shoots the arrows If I only had a heart
the chat is a nice place to come to that's for sure TO.
I didn't think anyone read that, Ankhorite!
if you had a brain, you wouldn;t ask for a heart
AL5/10 [have foreigner] & AL6/21 -- last 2 words before fireworks.
ha! temple!
Oh, it was good. :) But the chat is fast tonight. Oh, Temple, how very cynical!
Picture me a balcony Above a voice sings low Wherefore art thou, Romeo? I hear a beat, how sweet!
but i have decided i do need company.. and it's time to get out there again.
TO, get a dog.
I'm sorry you're sad TO
al5/10 readjust the foreigner
a + a straight ****, also think of the shape of a type of skirt

Minski, put things in order a + li4.4
okay, I need to find a present for my brother's impending birthday...g'nite all and take care!
Just to register emotion, jealousy, devotion And really feel the part I could stay young and chipper And I'd lock it with a zipper If I only had a heart

WTG Minski
hi and bye fran :) and hooray minski!
this chat is speeding by so fast I don't know TO's problem
Courage! What makes a King out of a slave? Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk, in the misty mist or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot? What have they got that I ain't got?

((((((((((((((parentheses))))))))))))) )))
lol, thanks! now i feel better. :-)
(
tor, if you had abairn you's be a mother
Tor loves his punctuation!
you'd
((((Joey))))
what makes the chili 2-way? the spaghetti?
and you build from there?
I'm very punctuational ..
*dusts cobwebs from corners of her mind* let me count the waaays....spaghetti, beans, onions, cheese...i cannot remember the fifth way
grapes
any cincinattnians out there?
three way is spaghetti and cheese
i think
sounds like a rash, TO
here's what it says on Bab-Anon at the end of the recipe... These directions are for five way chili. You can omit the beans, and make four way chili. Omit the onion and make three way chili. Omit the cheese and make two way chili. You get the drift...make it to suit your taste. I was wondering if the 2 was the pasta
i saw that episode of "the secret life of..." but i don't remember the details of that chili.
I saw it too Fran, that's why I wanted this recipe
i think so. when you go to a chili place the chili is one way then the others are aditive
ok, that makes sense. that show even featured Skyline
such a nice taste - rich not hot like southwest chili
Wow, I was gonna tease Torg about being smrater, but I *resisted* -- clearly such virtue is wasted around here!
I have 50 to go and can't concentrate at all so I think I'll go start supper and then come back to battle with the st's and so on
Seeya then, Jilli.
lol jili -seeyou later
later jilli!
see ya jilli!
not too sure I'd call it chile per se, but it sure sounds like it would taste good
ok thats me Finished - Fireworks - kapow - bang - boom - bam
*dreaming of a chili mac, so good, chili with cheese on spaghetti...num num nummmm*

Skip down to "$29" at http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/7587/ blu_val.html for the rest, but it's sad!
OK. I'm filling this thing with nice hot water...and some soothing lavendar vanilla oil.... anybody joining me?

it sometimes does that for me, if I leave it open from the last days puzzle and just refresh it to get the new one
Oh, maybe that's it, Vedaman. Yeah, Mama, Fran, it was fine earlier... I musta munged it, I'll just turn it off and hope for better at 1 am

that's so sad lady; my cat's around 14 right now, I got him as a kitten when I was 5. I can't imagine losing him.
fran, the only problem is that we thought up the exact same clue
ho 7/32 and or 6/18 (I have the one that means direction)
Its been really hard, watching her decline over the last month
lady, i can tell, ((hugs))
sa 6/18
dr, ho7 is unwelcoming or mean
or6/18 is plural of the or5/10 that sounds like a bird
sa6 is salty
satine is so a word
ty
or sa6 is solution for contacts also

21 left
gooo shannon!
shannon, not outside, in****s
is it is6/21 and 7 you need?
Oops. I meant is 6/21 and 7/32
is6/21 is ... is + vowel + where bad people go when they die minus last letter, then plural it for the 7
el4/5 please?
contrary: ro is entry to your house spelled backwards, ri is make someone who doesn't tell the truth spelled backwards, or, to make angry
ra5/12, add an e to the ra4/5 that sounds like anger
Yipee. Now I need the or 6/18, not the plural bird.
ri4/4s are anagrams of each other
el + short hello ML!
or 6/18 - the east is sometimes called the or****
or in6/21, or or5/12 or ta7/32
yipe. that's not a deceiver spelled backwards
down to just the ra 5.12.............stuck
