To Ameland, a Dutch island. We used to go once a year with 6 friends. One of them died this year, and we decided finally that we better mourn her together and celebrate her life and having known her together, than apart.

1:36 am

mkl, it means to occupy a land again

1:37 am

thanks

1:37 am

Hate it when I already have most of the word.

1:39 am

Like plurals? Those kill me. Even worse is when I type in the plural and forget the singular.

1:42 am

Amen to that Jan

1:44 am

love it when I have most of the word. hate is a waste

1:45 am

Ok, last clue? Anyone have the st8/40?

1:45 am

Half full, half empty?

1:47 am

It's an Italian word having something to do with opera, I think. The s/8 is a plural.

1:48 am

Oh crap. Anything a little more concrete? Not an opera kinda guy.

any clue for the ts words

1:49 am

flies

1:49 am

ts twice-- disease causing fly

1:49 am

ts type of flies in Africa.

1:50 am

and plural

1:50 am

It sounds like it ought to mean "not crooked." Though with an Italian vowel ending.

thnx..for the clue

1:53 am

Jan st clue. Was that for an eight letter? I can only find it in a seven letter

1:54 am

add the second vowel for the 7/28, the 8 is the plural of fourth vowel ending

1:54 am

plural mkl

1:54 am

Actually, it works for both of the preceding st/7's, though you can only pluralize one of them. Two different ending vowels.

1:55 am

Aha. I only had the one that could be a plural. Thanks so much.

1:55 am

Vanquished the evil re's...so fireworks!

1:56 am

yay jan

1:56 am

18 to go. I'm off for the night. Thanks for the help

Wow, I'm only up to 82 words.

2:03 am

nothing wrong with that for your first time

hello Morning Whispers, welcome to Babble-land

Hello, ty.

2:07 am

morning you should stop now before you are addicted to babble like us, we are pretty sad cases

2:07 am

lol

2:08 am

We sure are ... back again ... can't keep away... oh no

What is the rule of thumb for hints in the chat? I've got a few words others are likely to not have.

I think I was hooked with my first grid lol

2:09 am

best is to wait til someone asks for a clue

2:09 am

Generally you don't clue unless someone asks.

2:10 am

But people do give the tiles stats for the 7, 8, 9s especially early in the grid

I have the 9, have only 1 8, but 12 of the 7s

2:11 am

It was a bit fran-tic earlier on ... just kept up

2:11 am

You're going well for a first grid ...

2:12 am

2:12 am

I'm not that much further on, but bet there are some who have already finished.

hi Ata

2:13 am

hi ata

2:13 am

5:52 am

Hi metal - what letters are you missing? I've still got 32 to find but I may be able to help

5:54 am

Guten Morgen. Did someone offer help? I am stuck on me 7/32. Any help out there?

It's plural of me6/21 - if you find out what kind of stuff you're made of, you take the measure of your me6

5:55 am

Cute!!! Stollen is the Christmas loaf made from yeast dough. The Dresden version has marzipan in the center

7:48 am

they sound good. i'll probably end up eating a few of them for you..../

7:48 am

Stollen gets baked weeks before Christmas and stored in a cool place until consumed at Christmas time

7:49 am

Ok bunny, let the icon do the smoking, not you

7:49 am

I LOVE marzipan

7:49 am

bunny, if i may offer some advice about smoking. i tried every method a million times. i have quit before for 1 and 1/2 yrs and then started again. i quit in sept using the patch. i find the gums just replaces one oral habit with another and i couldn't get off it. be prepared for 6 months on longing for a smoke.

7:53 am

Faerie, I loved to smoke, it was relaxing...but I was finally able to kick it....doctor

7:54 am

I haven't smoked for over 28 years and do you know what the final straw was? my 5 y.o. son who begged me. He didn't want me to die.

7:54 am

doctor's advice or should I say warning....

7:54 am

Annie even my Dr. even told me that NOW is not a good time for me to try stopping

7:54 am

wow Bv you stated when you were 14 yrs old?

7:54 am

7:54 am

7:54 am

7:54 am

7:54 am

7:55 am

I used patches and have now not smoked for 2½ years

7:55 am

sorry

I've tried the patch, still smoked. These little tablets work pretty good. I always quit when I was pregnant, but that ain't happening!

7:55 am

Shorty lots of people start smoking as Young teenagers duh

7:55 am

still haven't decided on my icon. In the meantime, Bunny I quit on the patch some 12 years ago. Too damn expensive to keep getting more!!! I forgot to put on a patch one morning and knew I had licked it

Yup Shorty, about that.

7:56 am

duh I did when I was 9 yrs old*heehee*

7:56 am

It's the thing to do when your a teenager LOL

7:56 am

are there any words in the grid that use the h's or the j on the side?

7:56 am

Faerie, you have gone through a very stressful time. I agree with the doctor. I started smoking at 17....

I'm down from 2 packs a day. My major incentive for quitting besides the cost, I don't want the kiddos to EVER pick up the habit.

7:56 am

are you serious faerie???

7:56 am

Rofl Shorty seeeeeee

7:56 am

I dont think I could afford to buy cigarettes now. I stopped when they were $1.50 a pack and I smoked a pack a day

7:57 am

yep I'm serious

7:57 am

OMG!!!!!!!!!!

7:57 am

i just convinced myself that if i didn't quit smoking my heart would explode.

7:57 am

10:51 am

Haz, are you alright there?

10:53 am

LOL...it must be.

10:57 am

doh... stupid ro4... I never remember that one...

10:57 am

Afternoon all. Haz - have you turned into a goat or a sheep?? Has someone put a wicked spell on you?

10:58 am

hi, jacula

10:58 am

hi Jacula!

10:58 am

afternoon, Jacs... she just interjected... then silence...

hi, Jac! I really must get outdoors - mid-60s & sunny - in november - in Cleveland! the garden callls - i'd best pick up Babbling after dark.

10:59 am

Yes, sherb, I saw! Maybe she's logged-in but the monitor's switched off. She could be dusting the keyboard or something...?

10:59 am

it wasn't even a valid word...

11:00 am

Hey, melonhead, where in Cleveland are you?

11:00 am

(I'm from Cleveland Hts.)

university heights

11:00 am

no, Haz never dusts the keyboard... probably gone to get another glass of wine...

11:01 am

Did you grow up there and go to Heights High?

get OUT! i lived on Overlook, then Kensington, then E Scarb, before moving here.

11:01 am

sherb - She'll find out you said that! LOL

11:01 am

NO WAY! I grew up on Exeter!

I went to Berea High, but thought the Heights was the coolest place on earth, or at ;least in Cuyahoga Co. Moved here in my 20's, nearly 30 years ago.

11:03 am

lol, I don't know how cool Heights was when I went there, but I guess it was going downhill.

My music teacher in Berea, Mr Bergantino, moved to Hts in 1969, retired from same in 1988 - I just saw him last week guest-conducting Hts Hi Symphonic Wind Ensemble. How nice to be able to say "hi" & thanks for making a musician out of me - he started me on the bass in 8th grade.

11:03 am

I HAD MR BERGANTINO!!!!!

NO!

11:04 am

I played cello with him. Hee hee!

he still wears those turtlenecks - son David is a producers for Nickelodeon - I babysat him!

11:04 am

*cue nostalgic music of the 70's*...

What do/did you play?

11:04 am

Hi, vicuna and melonhead!

ahh, cross-conversation - did you take provate lessons? the Hts is crawling w/Cleve Orch members.

hi, Pam!

11:05 am

my best friends parents grew up in shaker heights with paul newman

"welcome back..."

Someone tried to fix a friend up with Debra Winger years ago - she's another Hts person...

11:06 am

I took private lessons, but not from a Cleveland Orch cellist. I did babysit for some Cleve Orch players, though. :)

11:06 am

I never knew of the Paul Newman or Debra Winger connections. They didn't hang with me!

11:06 am

(I mean I babysat their kids, heh!)

BVeing from Berea, I've been following OSU - I went to school w/Jim Tressell - one of the nicest eople you could know - always a gentleman.

11:07 am

Paul Newman lives not far from me in westport connecticut

11:07 am

rost

11:07 am

oh

11:08 am

(Hi, Pam!)

11:08 am

I played in the Hts Civic Orch, too, which Mr Bergantino also conducted.

well, now I'm really out to the garden - bye for now! It's been fun, vic!

11:09 am

LOL. Babble's finally driven some players mad. They are making strange interjections like, 'meh', 'rost' & 'oh'.:)))

I played Ohio Chamber Orchestra - ballet & opera downtown - not sure if Hts Civic is still active.

11:09 am

Happy gardening, melon!

11:09 am

Yes, don't waste that November sunshine, melon! See you later!

bye! {poof}

2:02 pm

2:02 pm

and then add one of two vowels to make two weird words

2:02 pm

there are 2 st 7, as clued by Dorens with diff. vowel ending

2:02 pm

oh, yes, that's what i mean.. those are two of the 3 st 7's...are you missing the other one?

2:03 pm

have difficulty speaking... you must have that one

2:03 pm

no, i have all the 7's then i guess

2:03 pm

did someone clue the first se6/18?

2:03 pm

i have plant bottom words, editing words, shop, foul weather, the weird 7's and 8, a 4/6, trouble speaking.

2:03 pm

one se 6/18 sounds like a group of six, but no x

2:04 pm

oh, plural!

2:04 pm

pfft, silly me.

2:04 pm

that leaves 5 R's.

2:04 pm

2:05 pm

2:07 pm

2:08 pm

do you have the ro**** stone?

2:08 pm

ro 8... little posies

2:08 pm

well, yesish

2:08 pm

and its plural, mu 8 has the same ending, is a kind of recorder or bagpipe

2:08 pm

sorry, i was telling blood what 8's there were, i don't need those, in case there is confusion.

2:08 pm

mu8 -- little inspirers

2:09 pm

Ok which r

2:09 pm

2:09 pm

i need two ro's and then 3 re's from the lower R

2:09 pm

2:11 pm

2:12 pm

how about ro + cross + apply

2:12 pm

lol, you needn't apologize, lori

2:12 pm

re 6/21 is a plural

2:13 pm

re 6/18 a person relaxing

2:13 pm

did you mean re there inge, cause if so, i think i get what you mean, and 10 points to you!

2:13 pm

that should have been an re + cross + apply

2:13 pm

so now maybe, hopefully, a 6/7 combo

2:13 pm

se 6/18 is se + st 4/4

2:14 pm

do you have re _+ ***mperature

2:15 pm

yes inge, i have all the 5's. i need a 6 and a 7. i have the relaxing combo.

2:16 pm

do you have what a mirror does minus the c?

2:16 pm

there is re + ***sh + cross

2:16 pm

2:17 pm

2:17 pm

ripped again, gramma

2:17 pm

Please inform Dr. God of our good fortune!!!

2:17 pm

lol, these are not babble points, they are GWHIM points

2:17 pm

i am still missing one r, myself ( in addition to 12 others)

2:17 pm

rock re + I buy milk at the s**** ?

2:18 pm

a little more specific Dorens and we will help

2:18 pm

let's see, dorens, have you got dream state (pl)?

2:18 pm

was going to try for it myself, but might s well... thanks. it is the last re 6/21

2:19 pm

but dorens, that's a plural fish...

2:19 pm

i know (I think) the first three letters and am not finding it tho have monkeyed like crazy

thnx for the clue...how about the 1st se 6/18..pls

2:19 pm

re + cross + apply

2:19 pm

?? it comes after the last re 4/4

2:19 pm

se 6/18 group of 6 (like a barbershop quar..., but with 6 instead of 4)

2:19 pm

then you need inge's one.

2:19 pm

rock se + st 4/4

2:20 pm

first se 6 sounds like agroup of six, replace the x with s

2:20 pm

yes i saw that clue... and can't for the life of me think of apply (feeling dense)

2:20 pm

apply meaning like apply your knowledge

2:20 pm

"please apply carefully"e *** with care

2:21 pm

re9??

2:21 pm

have that...that is a 5/6, right? oh--- i forgot... so i need the re6/21 BEFORE that

2:21 pm

=*** with care

2:21 pm

no dorens, you are forgetting to insert the consonant after the E

2:22 pm

re9 people who push the little button to make the machine start over

2:22 pm

what a WEIRD word! thanks pals

2:22 pm

I also missed that that word is in the preceding word

2:22 pm

last ten now

2:22 pm

so the re9 does not build off the re8 before it?

2:23 pm

Yes, it's a plural

2:23 pm

yes, it does. but then there is another re8 right after it, which you might have been assuming was the first re8.

2:23 pm

yes it does, re 6 is the action, re 8 is the doer, and re 9 is many doers

2:23 pm

ok...i can't get the "apply" clue. which cross letter connects the two part?

2:23 pm

You're right! I got it now. Thanks!!

2:24 pm

i am a PhD in Babble Psychology.

2:24 pm

2:24 pm

Gotta' stop goofing off and make supper. good luck all!

fe 5/18, fe 7/44 and fl 5/18

2:24 pm

2:24 pm

thanks dorens....gee whiz

2:25 pm

embryo and pl, all fl5 is as grass...

2:25 pm

2:51 pm

Border's book inventory and left them at the wrong time

2:51 pm

I have a grammatical problem with one of the mu6 words. (the one that would go with "deafest.") It would seem to me that this particular mu4/6 is not something that happens in degrees. Either you're mu4/6 or you're not. Oh, well

2:52 pm

hi hk, i have been recruiting people for the chicago get-together

leslie-yes? :)) who's on board?

2:52 pm

that's a good point jane, and thanks for the clue

2:53 pm

you are right Harpjane, though it has so many diff. meanings, that the superlative could apply somewhere

2:54 pm

I suppose, inge

2:54 pm

I hate re's what a bain in my babble world

2:54 pm

the re words re there to keep us in line!!!

2:55 pm

well the thing you stick in a trumpet is called a mu4/6 also, but there's no superlative.

2:55 pm

erm, well i guess by that i mean i've been making my list of people in the area. i have to look through the archives to see who all i invited ;)

2:55 pm

hello again everyone...me7/32 clue please, if you woud be so kind.

2:56 pm

Still got 8 more re's and getting fed up looking for them inge

2:56 pm

Hi Mo, are you ok?

LA - what? you mean you haven't picked a place, made the reservations, sent out the invitations??? i figured since you just did the wedding thing, it would be like second nature to you, lol

2:56 pm

I agree with Ch12 -- the veil across the face -- you HAVE to make copies NOW for your grandchildren! And I liked the other veil photo too, with it drifting across your face and your husband's.

3:08 pm

One of my other faves was the "gangsta" photo of your hubby with his friends lined up behind him. Heh!

3:08 pm

Oh yes, ankorite!

3:09 pm

yeah, nick didn't get that part... the day was super-windy, so i was like, oh! we can do the veil photo and i put the veil over his head and he turned and smiled at the photographer. I was like, NO, that is not how it's supposed to be done, you're supposed to kiss me! That's why we're laughing so much

3:09 pm

I loved the one with Nick kissing your forehead...

3:10 pm

I call that one the CD cover, ankh

3:10 pm

There's a photo from Dear One's sister's wedding where we are dancing together and we are softly clucking like chickens -- the photog got that, we look ridiculous, bright red and laughing so hard. :) YES! The CD cover, soon to be available on Amazon! The whole presentation was just perfect.

3:10 pm

ah! hk, tazpink was who said she was interested in the get-together earlier this week

3:11 pm

Oh, yeah, LA, I'm from Chicago but not there now. So I don't get to go to your ChiBabble party.

8:10 pm

hi stid, hi sheryl hi ak

8:10 pm

evening all

hey lb

well, cheryl, they are nearly the same word... just one vowell difference.

8:11 pm

hi feather, you rascally rabbit, you! LOL

ST + 2nd Vowel + two Cross Letters +Vowel... like I said that last vowel changes

8:11 pm

lol, sending you an email in a second.....

that's a start pappa, how about a bigger push

8:12 pm

well, helolo again, stid -- and for the 3rd time, are you snowy yet?

8:12 pm

and for the second time, YES JILL! though most of today's has melted in the afternoon rain...

8:12 pm

hi pappa!

8:13 pm

helolo -- neat word!

8:13 pm

I only got about 33 words, I hardly know any of them.

8:13 pm

a quick plug for the Artist Trading Cards... see my profile if you're interested, this trading session is just for Babblers...

8:13 pm

Dark, that is not uncommon! are you using one of the lists to help you find words?

8:14 pm

sorry, missed your first answer! It's still snowing here, and below freezing, so....going nowhere tomorrow and maybe for several days!

8:14 pm

the st 7's are new ones to me.

8:14 pm

I had so much fun racing, feather, had missed it so much since school started for you.,

8:14 pm

no, my mom does.

8:14 pm

8:15 pm

i'm going to scoot, my turn soon...

8:15 pm

oh my, Jill! well, it's supposed to snow again overnight, and periodically for the next few days, with lows maybe down to the teens. Which reminds me, I need to bring my macadamia tree inside tonight!

8:15 pm

later feather!

8:15 pm

fare well, feather!

8:15 pm

2nd re 6/27 please

8:16 pm

I got 1 st7 Ibdawger.

8:16 pm

well Dark, one of the things we look for is if we can add 'S' to any of the words we already have. That usually gets me about 15 more on a grid this size.

okay must be brain dead cause I still can't get either one

st 7 that is

8:17 pm

aknitter, switch the middle 2 letters after the re

8:17 pm

I do that most of the time(for some words) stidmama

8:17 pm

Sheryl: if you mistype a word for "road" you might double the last consonant instead of the vowel, then add a vowel at the end for the st 7s, and plural one of them for the 8

8:18 pm

jilli i am a bit confused by that

8:18 pm

knitter, the second is anagram of the first....

8:18 pm

oooooohhhhhh

8:19 pm

that's what I meant, aknitter!

8:19 pm

hey, look who's here...troubler and troublest

8:19 pm

the light bulb just came on!

hey evan

8:19 pm

hi, trouble (nut)

still not making any sense to me stid

8:20 pm

how's you trouble makers this eve?

8:20 pm

did anyone else here that ominous music playing?

8:20 pm

and done!!!!!!

8:20 pm

hi nut

enjoing good british ale, nut

8:20 pm

LOL Sheryl, the word makes no sense to me... the second one means "the close overlapping of statements of the subject in a fugue, each voice entering immediately after the preceding one" the first ends with different vowel

8:20 pm

YAY shorty!

8:21 pm

whoo hoo Shorty!

8:21 pm

Hey Nutty!

8:21 pm

sheryl -- think of a road or avenue starting with st. Take out one of the vowels. Add ** and fro. Plural it for the 7. Change the last vowel for the other 7

8:22 pm

((((((SHORTY)))))) CONGRATULATIONS

8:22 pm

8:25 pm

i protested jilli, but mom insisted, there must be nuts in the cookies.

8:25 pm

a word of advice -- dead trees do NOT belong in a floral category... unless you are trying to appeal to gardeners such as myself. I have LOTS of those!

8:25 pm

re 8/40 please the one just after the re9

8:26 pm

knitter, to move into a place again...

8:26 pm

Hey harp

8:53 pm

snow? what's snow?

yes, harp! absolutely!

8:53 pm

Oh smoooth -- I have things to do and can't get out of the house. Back in the Montreal area snow clearance was fabulous but here it's so rare people are not prepared. Also, the snow is different -- slippery and slushy underneath, and when it freezes hard there's "black ice" -- lethal.

8:53 pm

yes Harp, in Kspell. is that Many Glacier Lodge in you icon?

8:53 pm

I diden't under stand your st7 clue kalea.

I know black ice... it broke my axle last winter...

Harp, big mountain said they weren't going to open til the 2nd of december.

8:57 pm

I finished a while ago

8:57 pm

dark, I've been clueing those words this way: think of a road or avenuestatrting with st. Drop a vowel. Add ** and fro. Plural it for the st8. Go back to the singular and change the last vowel.

I'm doing well Min, how about you? Yes, I finished this morning before going to bed. what about you?

8:58 pm

well, that's only a few days. I'd rather they wait until they have a good base. otherwise it will be miserable when I go in March for Special O!

8:58 pm

8:58 pm

I still don't under stand, i'm only12 ya know.

8:58 pm

8:59 pm

We have just a few inches in town. I skied at Chief Joseph Pass yesterday, there was 18 - 24 inches total.

8:59 pm

hopefully the mountains will have a lot of snow this season. March should be either really good or man made

8:59 pm

Congratulations harpjane on your early finish! YAY!!

8:59 pm

I thought a 12-year-old would understand. Thankdfs -- what is another word for road or avenue which starts with st?

8:59 pm

*Think of this

8:59 pm

11:30 pm

how do you feel about doing weddings, smooth?

nervous... but I will be the backup guy... he's hiring a pro, bu wants me there for the "photojournalistic" aspect

11:32 pm

hmmm -- my son refused to do them but relented once and it was a work of art

11:32 pm

jilli its the very last ro word

it'll be good for me to get my fetr wet

i know a few art photogs who do them just to put food on thge tab;e

11:33 pm

the very last ro word is the pl of the ro5/10 before it!

11:33 pm

yes, smooth, I know, but my son is stubborn

11:35 pm

11:37 pm

.

11:37 pm

sorry

11:38 pm

glad, metal -- to see your interesting icon and its explanation!

11:38 pm

um, smooth? I have TONS of requests from friends who would like my harp music at their events. Yes, you CAN say no. Not that you should say no to your friend. But if you wanted to, you COULD. And I am always up front, right from the start, about whether I am donating the service, or charging. Saves surprises and hard feelings later on.

11:39 pm

must go and find tomorrow's icon, unless soeone needs clues....

I'm back and can clue, jilli

11:40 pm

ok -- bbl

I know harp, and I've turned people down before, but this is my guy... what can I say, we've been through a lot together...
