Hi Jilli, was looking for you, I just came in also
had an online IM chat with daughters new bf - they're coming over this weekend
hi all. got my icon!
I'm half alseep already
naughty word for brits in here. Ha!
well, hello!
Ornith - are you thinking the same way as me?
haha, probably angb
don't think I'll be doing this one - we're off to Vic tomorrow to see Lord of the Dance, Michael Flatley
what's a naughty word for brits?
ornith and angb -- I see you have someting on your minds,,,
Great flosey - saw it here a few years ago.
oh, hmm, angb, I meant mine as hu4/10!
new icon up... sl$
Wow flosey that sounds great
sl4
oh flosey! That should be wonderful!
Jilli - hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
missed it last time around
You'll love it ... I did
flosey - i saw him & riverdance about 10 years ago - i son't think he's from this planet - he's from somewhere where time moves a whole lot faster
and smooth can join you lot
I've just seen flately and gang on TV
sp5/22 & sp6/42. The first time I said that word (innocently) my husband was shocked!
what jili? what about me? lol
p 7/52
I missed that one chic...thanks
I think I'd better wash my eyes out with soap
and the second time you said that word?
I think I better go and cook some food - am feeling weak from too much time on Babble. May see you later.
really georg? that's not a compliment, at the very worst it can be annoying, but as an insult?
Oh Jilli, don't do that!
bye ang :)
it can be vulgar here, too!
yesterday was a bear. usually when there's lots of words, they come more easily!
It's a definite compliment in NZ! Whatever it's origins
helen - to a brit it is dna
Nite Ang
it can be dna here, too!
and I think I am off as well... my twilight zone is on... see you!
Nite pappa
sp 8/70
sp5 is DNA here, but sp6 is more like "has guts"
I don't know what the rude word for brits is -- limey? not here. pommy? not here. Educate me with a clue please
sp can be another word for male emissions
yes ornith - or more like 'perky'
jili - what's pommy?
phantom--sputnik!
helen -- pommy --aussie sneer at brit accented people
I love the k, lots of interesting words!\
sprite will have kittens when she sees 14 k words!

So... Not only did you play hookie, but you played babble with Leigh during property... shame shame Ana
I am SOOOOO spaced out, it took me a while to figure out why you were thanking me, tea?

orn: find the other high point tile
hi everyone
oops, wrong word!
hi my muse
a bit - still in enetertainment field -...
hello mymuse!
hi metal and debb!
nevermind--wrong one
only sl4/9 combination I can see is sluk, which isn't a word. got a sl4/8 with the other high point tile
don't use that ending consonant Ornith
start lower right and go left and up
K is done.....
go, chic, go!
I'm only seeing sl4/8 that way, metal.
Orinth is just "kills' me that you can't get the sl4/9..
Way to go chic....I have 1 lonely k
it's like the hu 4, ornith
me too Ornith, but that's the only word I could find related to the icon pic
it's not 4/9, isn't it 4/8?
yes sorry sl 4/8
chic, isn't that the 4/8?
yes, it is 4/8
oh! ok. that explains it then.
that should help ornith
oh, never mind again
poor mirandapan
was going nuts trying to find that, heh
I keep trying...
there's a ca4/11
thanks flosey
that is an interesting one, huh, flosey? I thought it needed another letter
me too

it's 43 degrees here and the news is all about how freezing it is - we're wimps
pu 7/52
lol deb! it got to 72 here today... crazy weather!

thanks for icon clue ornith
It's a balmy 30 degrees here...should be dropping to the teens later tonight
ooh okay thank you
four letter words are face value. five letters are x2, six letters are x3, etc
yw ashlye and debb
where are you in california schroeder? northern?
and also more pu5 brewsterlike
must be, as we are having similar weather here in Reno
have both 8's
yeah, about 45 minutes from Lake Tahoe. Beautiful snow filled yard right now :)
In Utah where I am it's 15--up from low of 1 last nite
no snow on the ground here, yet!
Your not far from me TnC
It's hard to feel too bad for you folks who are talking about cold weather. We had more than two straight weeks where it never got above 18 below zero. Finally warmed up the last few days. 15 above today. Long sleeve shirt weather.
that 72 was in Philadelphia! still 62 now. still roses blooming and stuff... really weird
mkl, where ARE you?
Break out the shorts mkl!!!!
And flip flops
I live about 30 miles outside of Fairbanks, Alaska
I figured it had to be something like that mkl!
Hi all. Here is my clue icon, since I can't think of anything else.
This isn't supposed to be our really cold time yet. Usually around zero this time of year. Late December and January will really shrivel your grapenuts.
Didn't you just have a cold spell not to long ago Ornith?
debb, you sound like you live near me. I'm in Southern California.
schroder, if by cold you mean it got down to freezing at night
100 words and yawning
thanks bfm, didn't have that one
late flip!
hey, fran!
We were without power for 3 days, and the temp was in the teens. Really cold for here in Wash.!
hi une!
I am exactly halfway - I think I will go to bed. I am having titanium posts implanted in my jaw tomorrow, so I doubt I will be back. Bye all!
Hi fran!
Hi Fran!
I'm headed to Southern Ca next week.....I'm going to Disneyland!!!!
hi Fran!
hi frannie!!!!
phantom: wrinkle
thanks for the clue une!
hi BFM, hi muse!
ouch, tea!
Hi Fran and Une
ugh, Tea! Good luck tomorrow!
yw ornith. I like your icon.
hi debbs!!!!!!! :-)
nite tea! feel good
bye Tea and good luck
hey, schroeder
hi and bye TnC!
94 and both eights. Pretty good for me.
gl TnC
Schroeder, have you been to Disneyland before?
Bye TnC...good luck tomorrow
ml, we did it again!!
thanks bfm! I had a hottie for a little while, but couldn't resist the lure of tv shows from when I was a kid
hey fran!
we picked the exact same image file!
hi hk!
I go every year. I take some of my dancers to perform in the holiday parade.
I think you're still a kid. lol.
i went to get an icon, but i see that mkl has one i was thinking of, haha - gonna git the other now
we'll have to stop doing that Fran, people will talk
good clue ornith!
How fun! I used to perform once a year when I was in high school with the band.
lol bfm, when I watched that show I was younger than she was!
I can share Helen
thanks fran
mkl - well, maybe YOU can, lol, brb
there's an alt spelling too if you don't have it already ornith.
It is fun. I love to hear the kids get so excited about it......well and the adults I'm taking are pretty excited also.
I think we're going to D-land after Christmas, but while the decorations are still up. My husband has never seen it decorated for Christmas before, and the kids will get a kick out of it.
of which one, fran?
brb
It's always nice to see the Christmas decorations...I always want to swipe a wreath and bring it home...lol
If you get a chance, you should see the Mission Inn in Riverside. It is absolutely breathtaking
changing icons, brb
mkl, what word are those little chicks? I'm sure it's something obvious, but I'm not seeing it
ml, I think Fran is changing hers, too. lol
okay, i changed my icon
oops, ml better not come back with something similar!
Quick, everybody change to their icon before they come back
I've never been there...I'll see if I can squeeze in a trip to see it.
Thanks, Fran.
ornith, alt spelling of your icon and comparative of it too. you probably have it already.
ooh, there's a good word. tu4/6 present tense of "an old black ram is tu**ing your white ewe" (quoting shakespeare, ain't I fancy?)
Google it. It is really worth the trip.
Actually, the chicks don't mean a thing. I always have chickens of some sort up there.
thanks fran, was missing the alternate spelling
I kept looking for "pullet" mkl!
Ooh, thanks Fran!
okay - i have an icon
LOL, helen.
ha, I was missing the 5/26 spelling
LOL helen...
ok, back now with a new pic
great clue ml!
Thanks ml. Didn't have that one.
thanks helen!
very pretty metal
chic - you have a thorobred? i KNOW that's not right, lol
don't forget "more pu5/26" for a pu7/52
crewel
oops
sorry
tx meta (& flosey)
yvw, I didn't have it either until someone clued the 7
and yeah metal, nice clue, too bad I already had it, hehe. been learning how to do it lately
yay! sp8
(thanks flosey)
it's wonderful to see the colors develop, to feel the change in the texture of the fabric as you stitch
flosey, i actually have that book in your icon!
really Fran, interesting, I haven'
only done like two embroideries, and my boss is already willing to let me do smaller ones for him! (I work for a guy who makes vestments) I'm all excited
taken time to change icon
hi all

Ornith that really sounds interesting
night chic!
'night chic
Nite chic
bye chic
nitey nite chic
Nite, chic.
flosey, it's really neat - almost all done by hand (real by hand, not machine by hand), and the most beautiful fabrics, goldwork embroideries with pearls and stuff!
ornith -- I was just going to get that icon theme when you showed up with it!
hehe sorry jilli!
Ornith, are you going primarily for Jacobean designs or others as well?
I'm really just starting to embroider at all, metal... doing shaded peonies right now. hoping to learn goldwork eventually
That sounds really cool, Ornith.
I enjoy blackwork also
hi jilli!!
Goldwork! *staggers in to flip an hour late*
hi ank!!
hi ankh!
hi jilli!
hi ank
Haven't tried blackwork yet... i don't so much like it for pictures, but it does make pretty edgings!
hi ank
Hi! Had to change clothes -- haven't got any clues yet. Oh, dear, Fran, great icon! My rodent-ish sistah! Hello, Muse! Debb, Jilli, Ornith!
hi Ankh
Oops, Hi, Metal, didn't see you for a sec. Better say hi, all!

Well, I'm not making any money lollygagging around here. Back to work!

good evening all -- I need tea and sympathy....
hi nan
more old news, su8/45
aww, hi nan *tea!*
hi nan! what's wrong?
hi nan, how can we help?
hi nan
*sings* I wish I was an Oscar Mayer we6/30
*pours tea*, what's wrong nan?
((((((((nan)))))))))
i've got tea ready!
Had a disaster in computerland this morning -- had my family newsletter all ready to post and inadvertantly lost the html file, so had to start all over from the beginning. As this was a file with frames, tons of links and lots of tables, this was a major undertaking!!! -- didn't get back to finish yesterday's grid but am almost finished now -- about another 1/2 hours labour!!
oy - how frustrating
oh ew nan, were you doing it all by hand?
i hate when stuff like that happens
oh nan, how frustrating
bless your heart! *offers shortbread cookies to go with the tea
oh nan - lycky for you, you have that photographic memory, right? :)
Oh nan that's is a lot of work..
yes -- I write in html -- no program with templates.
Don't I wish, Helen --- but I did still have all the e-mails from family members with their contributions.
And I didn't lose the photo files
I use dreamweaver and program by hand, so I can at least make templates for myself
Hi, Nan! And Helen and MVA and Schroeder and gosh I hope I haven't missed anyone this time. How exhausting, Nan.
*debates whether the group would be offended if she added a naughty hamster picture for word-in-grid*
Thanks for the tea, shortbread and sympathetic comments --- my husband just said, "Oh!" -- but then he is not very computer literate.
how many words today please
164
164 edmo
edmo 164
164
I wouldn't be offended
thank you
hi - back with a new icon
go for it ankh, we'll tell you when it goes up.
i would not be offended ( in principle )
Go for it ankh
hmmm, interesting jilli
nor would i be offended
hmmmm, jilli. I've got the second word, but that first one is mysterious!
*comes back snickering and giggling* Okay, too awful?
jili - i have those 2 words, but what the heck is your icon? what does it do?
thanks jilli!
Thanks for letting me get racy! Tho' I am still blushing from Metal's shoe yesterday, gracious!
brb
lol ank
hehe ankh, I think it's funny! is that lu4/5?
Yesss, Ornith! :)
Or should I just say, "Yes, yes, and again yes!" ?
helen -- I don't know! Guess I'd better google it
Lol ankh!!!!
Ankh: maybe "Oh God Yes!"
got to go, bbl
And tying in to the fact that hamsters have THE shortest estrous cycle of all of us mammals... bye MVA!
it could also be tu4/5
Bye MVA
bye MVA
lol, true metal!
Gosh, it is pretty blatant... hope the day crowd isn't horrified.
Oh, Metal, so right!
lol ankh - no, it's cute ----- just today i was thinking about the time i saw two large turtle (or tortises) go at it at, i forget which zoo) - but it was the funniest thing, everything was in ultra-slo-mo - even the loud grunting - there was quite the crowd
good nite mva
Oh, Helen!!! I've seen that! The poor things grunt (with NO privacy) and their shells click, ungh, click, ungh, etc...
i don't think they cared about the privacy, lol - these guys were big! maybe 4 feet long, 3 feet tall
innnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooout
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnn nnnnnnt
lmao HK
we didn't stay for the end, who knew who long that would have taken!
bye all 34 words left they will have to wait untill i come back from work

'bye ruthy

Bye, Ruthy!
Sheeeesh, Helen, I think you stayed too long regardless, LOL!

*proud of herself for FINALLY getting it right* errr..it was right, right? Nitey, Schroeder!
Wow, most excellent clue, Jilli. My father-out-law just came back from wreck diving in Canada. He fell in love with your whole nation.
oh, pardon my typing maybe i do belong in a hospital, Ankh - it's my semi-colon - yahahaha ;)

cr7/48
ooh, muse, what other 7 (7s?) do you have?
Nice icon, Sapphie, thanks.
thanks -- that will give me something to work on!
cr7/32, cr7/48, hu 7/52, pu 7/52, tu 7/36
Sheesh, Metal, just noticed your icon is homonym for yesterday's cr*** shoe!
you're ahead of me Ankh, I didn't even pick up on tht
*that
clue for tu7/36 muse?
*rolls eyes* Heaven forbid, Metal.
add a Latin plural to the clothing item
well.....got to get to bed
tunicae
also, drop the final vowel from the 7 and you have the 6
muse, you mean the fabric?
Whoops, Kalea...
a woman's upper garment perhaps
wow, mymuse I'd never have found that one
oh, thanks kalea, hehe
hey everyone...there is also an sp7/52
Hi, SmithChick!
thanks smithchick!
ah, same alternate ending as for my icon
That's quite the interesting icon you've got there, ankh...gives all new meaning to the words warm and fuzzy
thanks smith!
Txs, Ornith, was stuck on that part.
thanks smithchick!
ty smith
*blushes* Thank you, SmithChick... you think it's too graphic for here?
muse, can you tell me what the cr7/32 builds off of?
fran, spaces in a battlement
doesn't build from anything Fran
yw...I need one more 7 now. I've got cr7/32, cr7/48, hu7/52, pu7/52, sp7/52 and tu7/36.
okay
sure it does muse, the singular cr6/21
OK, now that i have some words i want to get another icon
ty Ornith, I've never seen it spelled that way... only eith the charged particle ending
No...it's funny. Now that turtle story may be another thing altogether!
Fran, it has same ending as a single corn from cob
np metal
lol Orn
I'm too lazy to change my icon...
I could put up a picture of two of my children for the su6/21 and su8/45.
*points out SHE wasn't the one moaning (much) during turtle story! only a little!*
Huh, Chick hmmm, don't have those yet.
good morning
It's all about the 'tude.
hi lain

hi annother
I have a new word this week, "kirpan," and I keep wanting to see it here. :( (The little knife Sikhs wear)
not too bad
yesterday's was far too big for me but I don't get much chance to play on Thursdays
Alright, missing a 7 and 48 other words, think I'll have to come back tomorrow when the list is up
Bye Ornith
good night to all who are leaving
Okay, Ornith... nice to see you!

akin
wooops - soory Ornith - i should have paid attention - back to the boneyard....
hmm 'bye ornith' is not a valid word
dang!
LOL, annother
I'll get the hang of where to type what one day
Lol, Nother!
a clue for the a from the top corner -- not the indian nanny?
Didn't have that one, thanks cyber!
thanks for THAT clue, Nan, I was sitting here feeling dense.
hawaiian goose alert!
oh, those damn geese, I can't remember... grrr.
Gotta love those Hawaiian geese
*honks to herself in a surly way; blushing over cursing*
thanks for pointing it out, fran
I'm not awake enough for the cryptic clues yet
Ornith - you still there? - see what you made me do?
ne4/4 another, it's really a hawaiian goose.
Did anyone clue the non-nanny upper right A?
I've got 7 re words, and 6 ri words. Anyone know what I'm missing?
ah thank you fran - got it now
I love knocking those r's out of the way.
cybernan - ae + spy agency.
still looking for it ankh
yw another!
Thanks, Dianne!
thanks dianne! i alwayse forget that one.
smith, i only have 9 out of 14!
thanks, diane
Dianne, thanks, that's a new one for me
nice clue dianne - ty
I've got one re6, four re5's and two re4's.
5 ri4's and one ri5
I can't stand to go to bed with 15 left.
ta dianne
The reason I lurk a lot is because if I don't lurk, I can't shut up.
Smith! Don't do this to yourself!
I think you are missing an re4, chick.
reins
It's the nature of the beast, ankh
didn't really notice smith! :-)
Thanks, snp
oh, I did it again -- sorry
hi everybody! I found a word that Iwish were real!
hi nef!
hello nef
hi Nef
Hi Nef and snp!
hello snpp
smithchick, I can't chat and word find at the same time; I'm always putting words in chat and chat in the word box!
been there, done that Nef
ditto, here too Nef
Hi, I've been lurking for a while.
my word that I wish was real is: re-enlust! :D
I've grayed the NE corner and the SW corner and I'm fading fast, ladies... *a mighty yawn*
smith - just got my last re4 - re4/9. Do you have that one?
Hi Volley
Sheesh, Nef! Did you click my icon?
Nope...that's what I'm missing. Guess I'll do some math
hi chick
Just got it. Thanks, Dianne
I've been lurking too for a little while; wiating for dishes and laundry to finish
I cannot believe how godd and how fast you all are; I don't think I'll ever see what you all see; very impressive
strange, there was a bang outside somewhere, computer shut down but power still on!
AHH! That just *might* have been where that idea came from Ankh! :D
I almost typed in a word...it would have been embarrassing for all of you to know that I thought it possible that eack was a word.
only have one sickly i word. anyone got the other?
Volley!! My protegeé!
Howdy Ankh!
volley -- not everybody is so fast -- take me, for example -- slow and unsteady
Dianne, knock over your pen.
Hey flosey
Jilli, your modesty is groundless.
aww ty jil for encouragement
Volley, I think I'm the slowest here but I talk too much. :)
LOL
I'm especially when I use the list...I miss the list...where is the list?
volley, I've been quietly working here for about an hour and only have 68 words
Since it's Friday, this is icons-are-clues day. You should click on our icons, and that way you'll get to know us better, too.
dianne, you're way ahead of me, i have no i words
indeed jilly, certainly neither slow nor unsteady
1 hour 2 mins and 77 words. *sigh*
Except for mine...because I'm too lazy to change it.
dianne, think of newsprint and what's in a pen
Chick, I still don't get it about using your kids for su* words.
great idea ty ankh didn't now that; I will!!
boy, all this flattery! I love it ;)
for the other i in the middle
well, I'm off to bed - perhaps finish if I'm up early enough
ank - thanks - now I need one more I (i hate the i and e words).
and the other i in the middle is what you say when something is gross
The expressions on their faces...they are preteen and teen...pouty little boogers.
Awwww, Jilli. You're the smartest, best-mannered, and best-traveled! :)
Bye flosey
my icon isn't a clue; that's just me!
I think Lickety has a soccer game on Fridays or something so clues are later than usual
Ohhh, okay!
I hate a's too, Dianne
i have all the 8s, i mean both the 8s, & these 7s: c7/48 hu7, pu7, tu7
i have all the 8s, i mean both the 8s, & these 7s: c7/48 hu7, pu7, tu7
whoch 7s am i missing, and a clue for the other cr7 please?
fran - thanks - I've been trying to find something for that i in the middle
there's a cr7/32 melon, plural of the cr6/21
OK, hat is the typign of a very tired person.
We're still missing a 7. there is also sp7/52
would anyone be offended if I put up a suggestive but not obscene icon pic?
cr6/21 is the space in a battlement
i don't have that cr6
You better ask ankh...she's a stickler about these things
yes, but delightedly so ;)
Well, *I* am certainly in no position to object!
metal - go right ahead -everyone has been warned :)
it's the same structure as the cr6/33, but change middle consonant
this isn't really bad...
brb
A stickler? No, just a tender modest blushing FLOWER of a hamstress!
Fran - thanks - I missed that gross i word.
i must spell it differently, or misspell it as the case may be {confused}
mmmhmmm...
Helen -- "hat is the typign" ? Awwww. :)
14 words... trying very hard not to cheat
melon, there is also an sp7/52
ahh, i was double hockey sticking it - as in the -ation ending
thanks, btw
yw dianne!
any clues for the very first e?
OK 2 more 7s & i can call it a mediocre night.
sp7/52 is alt spelling of the sp6/42
cheat?
Go Smith Go Chick Go Smithchick!
thanks fran - had missed that one
ok crew, here's the new (temporary) icon pic
Yeah, go to atoz or something. It's now four and a half hours until time to get up. If the kids have school. Cross your fingers that they don't.
past the half way point - phew!!
ml said a word! lol
ack, sorrry about that
OK, here's my 7s now: cr7 X2, hu7, pu7, tu7, sp7 - what's the last one?
was hoping to find another word before retiring -- not going to happen -- good night all :)
thanks ml, can't believe i missed that one
night nan!
laila tov cybernan
Yay, annother
no one has it yet melon
yw Fran
We don't know the last one
ml, thanks. I didn't have the one in your icon.
'night nan
Night, nan
was that the royal we, smithchic?
e anyone? anyone?
But of course, melon.
I'm missing two of the SE "t" -- I have fabric, music, three clothing words, medieval barrel, and sex. Can anybody point me to what I'm missing?
Drop one of the consonants on the first tu5...Also one who does tu4/5
well (harrumph) WE didn't give you permission to use "we"!
So sorry...Begging your pardon
But Melon, you're the one who said you didn't have it in the first place! :)
If one of us does know it, I'd love for us to share!
oh, Ankh, i am so full of it
WE are all full of it!
*hits herself in face with a tu*** fish!* Thank you, SmithChick. Ah, Melon, I'm just pulling your chain. :)
yw
I can't figure out that tu7 word for anything. Could someone clue it for me please?
I wanna see Metal's racy icon, and then I'm going to bed.
{pulled} - hey my nickname as a kid was Queen of the Universe, bestowed by younger sister, & i had no idea this was a mockery!
WE need the top e. Please? Pretty please?
ROFL, melon!
thanks ankh and smith, got all the Ts now
yes also lookingfor the top E
me three
Throw an extra vowel on the end of the tu6
and me
Okay, here's another clue.
that's a good picture of him BFM
Hi blombol
LOL!! Metal, I didn't have that one!! Thanks!
if I had a tu6; I'd definitly throw an extra letter on it
I love him!
Remember the spandex pants?
LOL, Nef...It's a gambling town in Mississippi.
yw Ankh
i just saw him in concert about a month ago. still a hu**
Aw, BFM, I'm a simple farm girl and was thinking of a hayri**.
I"m not sure I should admit this, but that's the first word I found
I loved Billy Idol in the 80's.
Never heard of that, Ankh.
Hey, all, thank you for a lovely evening, gotta go now... I needed to see Metal's word (oh, Metal, what shall I ever think of you?) and now I'm washed up.
I had a thing for Adam Ant.
'night Ankh
A big pile of hay in the olden days, Monster. These days, machines roll it.
I'm off to change back to a prettier icon
Nite, Ankh.
I'm a Billy Idol fan, but that one Ant song... "what do you do"?
*hustles off to bed*
nef, tu6/24 is the tu5/14 (loose fitting top) with an extra vowel on the end
Byeee!
night ankh!
Bye Ankh
thanks again fran
top e - ec7/36 - phew
back to bed - 1 7 short of mediocrity - oh, well - everybody , try to have fun without me! {poof}
night ankh
night melon!
Thanks, all. Say bye to Metal for me when she gets back. **POOF!**
good job dianne!
Bless you, Dianne! The last 7 and the top e!
Bye melon!
do you have a definition dianne?
NOW the last 7 shows up - thanks Dianne - now i gotta stay up.
Fran, I should give up at this hour of the night. I can't get it for anything (I'm actually looking at a Mississippi map right now; I'm that bad!)
That still leave 2 Es to find :(
dianne, do you have the woman's name? (type of heather)
ROFL, Nef!
Fran - sweaty
you'll get it nef! hang in there.
*hoping for a hint about that top e7*
yaHah! got the ec7 - 'nite! {poof for real}
Fran - got that one and the over head train and the bird (I think it's a bird).
I now found the town! :D
WTG, melon!
too sleepy to think or see
Long snaky fishes, too Dianne. and the pitcher
Blech, I'm not seeing it (e7). I think I better go to bed. I want to get at least 20 minutes before the baby wakes up. G'night.
dianne, do you have the container for liquids?
eels
eels
Night, BFM
OOPS - excitment got the better part of me - sorry
g'night bfm --
thanks dianne!
night BFM!
jilli - ec7 - ec + 5 letter word for illegal action but change the next to last letter to a diff consonant.
hi all :)
yay, got the ec7
went to morewords
Hi, Atalante
had the right idea, but i wasn't doubling the first consonant
hi ata!!
Ditto, Fran
hi Ata
be back soon with the new icon pic
diane, i am not getting your clue about the ec7.
My eyeballs are about to pop out of my head.
I'm outta here with 13 left to go. Bye all!
g'day all - how many words please?
164
ty metal
hi crone!
blom - I'm trying to think of another clue..........
lickety's late tonight?
hey fran
tell me about it. i feel like waking his ass up!!!
cane
crone said a word.ooooooooooooooohhh
sorry sorry
well perhaps feel a different way, blom .... he does have a family and job to take care of and does everything here out of the goodness of his heart ...
maybe lickety's out on the tiles?
very good point Ata
*is not here, is just shutting off computer, but didn't someone say Lickety plays soccer on Fridays on his way home from work?*
thanks ata! i was trying to think of a way to say just what you said.
it's his gift to us, not his obligation
has he finished his thesis?
lol i'm not sure but hi Ankh :)
new icon pic Ankh, refresh before you go
blom - ec7 - ec - repeat last letter then add a word for fruit peel/skin but change the last letter to a vowel.
hello everyone. didn't MRP say he had a Xmas do for his work - ?
hmmm, thought i saw a hamster rush through here.
hi lynxxx!
thanks, dianne for the e7 clue which I missed because I went to morewords too - lol! It was a good clue, though!
What IS it, Metal? Remember, I'm not here, so I don't put everyone through the "bye" thing again! (but hi, Ata, Crone!)
ankh, i think it's some kind of radio tu***
it's a tu5/12, used to make sure instruments don't hit "sour notes"
or that kind of tu***
Ohhh, thanks! Nite, nite, nite!!! *dashes past skunk again at high speed, headed for Blanket Wars*
have fun, ankh!
*thought it was some kid of sex thing, cuz Metal was the one who went to fetch it* **POOF!**
phantom - tush
there goes that hamster again, i didn't think they were capable of that kind of speed.
LOL, I"ll see what I can arrange for next icon Ankh, just for you
*sleepy snickers heard in the distance*
i keep trying to put punic in
the Punic Wars ... *shudders from Greek students the world over*
Well, considering I just bumped my head on my monitor and woke myself up; I'm going to bed. Thanks for the help everybody! (Dishes and laundry loads are taken care of too! :D)
lol nef!!

I've got a we6,30

a clue please for cr7?
yeah - he may have mellowed a bit by now but he was such an arrogant d**k-head when young.
It's a plural word for a type of embroidery yearn.
yarn - like I know anything about it.....
sounds like the plural of mistreating an animal flask
A log full of l/45 I see. Morning all on this dark and wet morning but hey it's Friday!!!
got it thanks!.....tried it earlier with double cons at the end!
and exactly why was he in your living room? or wherever he was?

hi and bye all..officially stuck with 19 to go...be back to finish later
Our unwanted visitor is being su6/21
i don't know which 7 we're both missing enemy but i'm told there are 7x7
There are two crs 7 missing 7/48 plural of cr 6/33
lol Haz
heyy i know what you mean! (to haz)
think...haha
er, i think**
That's good! Make it more so for su8
& plural of cr6/21
a clue please for tu7?
Flask - if you have tu5/13 - item of clothing, sometimes associated with military, add two vowels, to give latin plural ending
thankyou....and the second cr&...please?
cr7.....sorry!
good morning babblers.
night all
So, I have the second 8 (thanks, Haz) did anyone come up with the other 7 while I was looking?
The other cr 7 is structured as the embrodery yarn, but replace the middle consonant with another.
Night Crone and Hi BA
So, there are 2 cr 7's?
cr7/32 = cr7/48 change the centre consonant
Sorry Haz....thats the one I have
cr7/48 is the abusive sounding embroidery yarns, cr7/32 is the other (replace the middle consonant)
yes there are Enemy
Got it !!!
thankyou!
Well done Flask!
Good morning Bloodaxe - we were knee deep in embroidery yarns there (what a nightmare thought) and didn't say hello.
that's ok haz...first things first. how are you this morning?
I'm fine thanks. The house is still in one piece after some storms last night, so that's always a bonus.
ooohhh...was there some bad weather?
Gales and storms - probably nothing by other's standards but pretty noisy!
Thanks to all who helped me with the 7's and 8's
well it's good that everythings safe and sound.
And that should have been others' standards.
glad they have passsed now Haz.
You're welcome Enemy.
Did you finish the grid yesterday, Bloodaxe, or did study interfere again?
yea...that pesky educations got in the way. i called it quits with about 35 words left, but i had a quiz this morning, so i needed the sleep.
i love the BIG grids, but they make school so much more difficult.
The big grids are fun, especially in the beginning when the words are flowing, but getting them completed does take time. Unless you're a speed merchant, which I'm not.
did you finish yesterday's grid?
I did it eventually. I had to take a break to let a migraine pass and then got it done later.
new icon pic up
ewww...migraines. those can make the grids hard.
luv it metal! is it part of the theme?
it is indeed
so how many words WERE there yesterday?
I only take a migraine very occasionally and can usually nip them in the bud. Babble and nausea don't mix.
264-ish...i think.
Cairo - 280 or thereabouts.
well i hope that today's grid goes off without a hitch for you haz.
Thanks Bloodaxe - finding time and words should be my only problem today.
what is the theme for today? i've partaken in any of the "themes"...maybe today is a good day to start.
hey guys i am looking for the last i word. i got the one the green h**** of scotlands as well as the grose word
morning all..im missing the ec7...and just cant see it
blom - one means gross.
Bloodaxe - on Fridays we always use an icon to clue a word from the grid.
got that one blood
haha...yes you do...sorry, still re4ing from todays quiz.
Morning rolin
rolin - think sweaty
ok. thanks haz.
rolin, think glandular, secretions, not endo * * * * * but ec * * * * *
ec7 - ec then a mixture of a misdemeanour and salty water (does that make sense)
Dianne Hi!! Are you over your cold?
Top row n - got the one that has to do with pearls - what's the other one?
it's where you find pearls.... after they are strung
FM - over enough to have gone to work today but still sniffing & blowing.
lol good one metal
metal - hit me with a big fish - thanks.
ty FMitch
no fish for you Dianne, I just found the word before you asked about it
Be careful not to get a cr5/22 in the ne4/9
ooooooooooooohhhhh.....FInally.. ty all..
pearls after they are strung... hmmmm hanging from a tree limb?
well, I would have said something about the ZZTop song.... but that isn't really proper for a family site
in4/10 - writers' fingers
or fingers after readin ga cheap newspaper
3rd column "i"... any clues?
...quiet chatterbox...
Haz just clued one of the words from there
Just given one - in4/10, or ic4/11 - disgusting
what Haz just clued and gross
has everyone finished with my current icon pic?
gr8 ty gotch
I love that the ic4 is allowed as a real word.
That sounds as though you're dying to put another one up? I'm ready for another.
just kidding, my wireless just flaked out on me
I'm not sure which one to put up... I was thinking cr7
It's cruelty to sewing phobics, but go ahead.....
good pun there haz ;)
I hope it doesn't give the game away too much!
ooooooooooh
not that one, the other one
hahaha...i get it Haz! and now i got it!
Oh I can take the other one without flinching.
does anyone have the N in the top row?
na5/12 and ne4/9
na 5/12 --- mother of pearl
have the ne, any clues on the na?
nahh, I think i"ll go something different Haz... most here seem to have the CR's
We await your choice, metal.
ok..my first time playing the theme game...
A word - I have ac x 2, ae, ai x 2, ak and ay. What 2 am I missing?
ok, i"m back
hey diane, i have the onc ac word that relates to a skin condition that is common with teenagers, can you clue me in on the other one
Great icon clue BA
thanks FM.
blom - land measure
thanks dianne
Dianne, I'm missing the same two as you!
good icon Blood

None is difficult?
and it's a good photograph too Haz
morning all
great haz! you just gave me two words i didn't havel....wonderful clue.
morning kth.
good morning kt
I got two from your clue also Haz. You're a whiz at this icon pic clue deal
Apparently the wr5 is deteriorating very rapidly and will soon disintegrate.
really haz? that's too bad...
Oh good - glad the icon is of value.
ok everyone, get it in gear.... I just found the perfect icon pic and don't want to switch until you're through with the current one
I would love to go down and see it, it's massively expensive though
Thank goodness that's not food in there, metal!
hahaha...haz, i was just going to say that it looks like what i had for dinner last night.
i have the ki4 now metal.
It's also the first name of an early Labour Politician, Mr Hardie
I have 2 ki4/8s but I'm not sure if they are anything to do with your clue metal
kth - with this one, put an s in front and you would have a winter sportsman
oh ty haz I didn't have that one
you're welcome.
oohhh. i once wrote a song called "sp6/42". it was about a dog that my friend didn't have.
lol blood thanks for the word
good morning all,we have a major snow storm comming in today. All Michaganders stay warm!!!
Getting rhymes must have been interesting. Other animals could have featured heavily (apes and asses)
acky is too a word I use it all the time
yw kth.
morning hodag.
hi hodag, that doesn't sound too good
gosh..i can't remember the lyrics....
Maybe you could rewrite it? We could help.....
YAY! that would be fun.
hi bloodaxe and kthdsn. Its going to be a dilly,the whole state!!
kt, if one of your ki's has to do with dye vats, it has to do with my clue
You do the first draft and we'll criticise - I mean, give constructive comments.
ac 6/24 --- diving back **to the grid .. he and she is we, or the two of **
I don't have a clue what they are about metal, I'm sure they're all fake words ;)
you have to remember that we were like 15 when we wrote it.... some of the lines were: "when i come home you're sitting waiting by the door for me. your tails a'waggin with a smile on your hairy face"
Thank you Enemy.
It won't win any prizes yet, but given some reworking.....
ok, here I go. be back in a few with the next pic
well all, have 11 left, but my brain is not cooperating. Hope you have a fantastic Friday; see you later!!!
the snow is snowing,the wind is blowing butt I can weather the storm.....<singing>
Bye Volley.
ooohhh...he was a bad dog: "you chew on my shoes, you s**t on the floor, your breath stinks, i don't like you anymore. then p**s on the couch and puke on the rug....you're such a thug. but i like you more than a stinky ol' bug"
Well done, VolleymomDee!
one t two meny
hodag, winter has finally arrived?
lol blood sounds like a great dog
I can't say it would make dog owners go all gooey, and dog haters would think all their prejudices were confirmed.
hey guys any clues for the N in the top row?
hahaha. i never said it was a good ong. *song
n plus a unit of land measurement
hahaha. i never said it was a good ong.
hi, couldnt sleep--decided to babble for a while

later, folks
'bye Annie
Bye Annie - see you later.
see ya Annie
I knew it wasn't acceptable but I don't understand why 'nerine' is outlawed by enable.
never heard of it haz what is it
Enable obviously needs some attitude adjusting medications
snap Haz - I just tried that!
It's an autumn flowering bulb - very pretty pink flowers.
oh sounds nice
My mother had an amazing array of them in the garden this year
isnt that narine, haz, or is narine something different?
They seem to come into flower just when all the summer plants are fading.
I'll check, Atalante.
Ata that is to do with nostirls
lol oh ... I will tell my mother, she always spells the flowers narine!
I'm not good with plants, I had some houseplants and they either over grew, died, or were stolen :'(
narine - googled it and has something to do with acido-lactic products.
oooo now I'll know for next time :)
Ah well, nerine just has to join the list of enable rejects.
my houseplants were so bad, the theives stole the house and left the plants
lol enemy
With a t instead of a y we could have had multitudes of Madagascan hedgehogs. Maybe I need a break. I'm only seeing what we can't have! Back later.
cya haz
see you later Haz
TTFN Haz
bye haz
what's with the vowels in the top right corner, I'm sure they're laughing at me
they did the same to me kt
one ay is a "grandma"
kate - ay4.7
one, ae5/12 has only one consonant, in the middle of the word
ye 4/7 and ye 4/6 too, kate
one, ec7 has to do with glandular function... not endo * * * * *, but ec7 (sometimes spelled exo * * * * *)
ty
and ya4/11
ya4.11 - "****ity ****, don't talk back "
ok I'll have to work on that ec7
good clue lynxxx
smoking in the boys room
the ec7 ends almost like the novel title: " * * * * * and Punishment "
does anyone have more than 4 wr's pls
not me, lynxxx, sorry
not I, I had only three, but will now search for a fourth. ty for the prompt
jeez I hate when I forget a plural
Metal - do you have 2 wr5.28s
yes, and they differ by only one letter
wr 5/28 --- w + r*** springsteen
the wr's I have are wr5/28, 4/8. 5/18 and 5/28
springsteen?
Springfield, I think he meant.
I was wondering if Bruce had a brother.....
Guess its a WE I am missing then

sl5.20 - cute word

I don't know if that is all there are
thx lynxxx
another we4.8 on the end of that list Metal. I am still missing one W though
ah5/14 - a plus part of a ship

I only have 4 so I am not much use
There's an unusual hu4/7 near the start
Good day, Babblers. How is the grid?
Have 5 Ha words and one hy - missing 4 in total.
it's not insurmountable
I have 7 hu words
but not easy either
hello everyone...I have 6 hu's
hu 4/6 4/10 7/52 5/26 4/6 4/6
hu4/7 precedes enemy's list (hu plus the beginning of frozen water)
TY Haz, i'd never have gotten that one
You're welcome, metal.
oh no...that one was too easy...it was the obvious hu5 I hadn't got !!!!
clue for hu 7/52 please
oic, ty, Haz
It's the comparative for the hu5/26
pbar - more so of the hu/10.
Glad to help, Enemy.
hu7/52...more hu4/10
ty haz
ha 4/10 ha 4/5 4/9 5/22 4/5
also ha5/14 at end of enemy's list
ha6.36
just had to try lu6/21....and it did !
grrr it kicked me off babble :'(
hi all, I have yesterdays list in Lickety's clues - can anyone tell me how to fix it? I've tried refresh, but no luck.........
I don't think the new list is up yet sugar
hey karys, can you clue me in on the lu 6/21
Hi Sugar
blom....more lu4/5
tx metal, guess I'll just have to be patient! hi lynxxx
did I miss any clues for the ec7 I'm looking for?
I don't think you've missed any.
dont get the clue, the only lu 4/5 i have is one that is similar to the sixth month and the other word relating to a sexual desire
Oh well, I've just found it anyway :D
try ec + a fabric called * * * * oline + a vowel
good for you kiddo
its on the and of the six month one blom...just make it more
anyone know which h I'm missing? Have 7 x ha, 7 x hu & 1 x hy
blom - take you lu like the month - drop the last letter and add the "even more so" ending.
lu4/5 - french for moon, make it an adjective and then a comparative for lu6/21
ty chris...didn't have the hy
sorry Chris, I can be of no help to you. I have only three ha's
Cris - you have one more ha than I do so I'm no help. How about a list of them>
and you have more of them all than me ..sorry
thanks got it now, got 63 more words to go
hey chris P do you have a clue on the hy you mentioned?
ha4/10, ha6/36, ha4/5, ha4/9, ha5/22, ha4/5, ha5/14, hu4/7, hu4/6, hu4/10, hu7/52, hu5/26, hu4/6, hu4/6, hy5/16
hy is a laughing animal
clue for ha6/36 and ha4/9
ha6/36 adds a couple of vowels to the cutting ha4/10
ha6/36 - add 2 vowels onto ha4/10, ha4/9 - remove last vowel off ha5/22
thanks Cris.

How about that lonely A in the upper right corner?
Possibility there will not be a list from lickety today
no 8's yet Chris, did you get the last kn?
What's the pro blem with Lickety?
Is there a list anywhere else?
(found both 8s already -- she said without malice)
Has a ransom been requested from lickety? I will chip in some money.
When I first started we didn't have lists - much more fun with everyone working together like today. Yes I did get the las t kn thanks - wet fishes all round.
c'mon dr Gwen - share with us !!!!!!!!
Gwen, dear friend, how about some clues, pretty please??
I did it without Lickety last week Saturday and it about killed me.
I think its work commitments

hmmm, clues, hmmmm, gimme a sec

Got that one thanks!!

FYI for the newbies Lickety does his list on a purely voluntary basis and is not linked to the main babble site in any way.
TY for 3 SP clues!
i'm back, cat's fed,now i can babble in peace

Ye4, ye4, the 8's are done. TY!

I C

Good Morning All, got both 8's, thanks Dr. Gwen

although that only has 2 floors
dont forget the aquarium, nut
I get to see much too much of my fellow man there. whew! although it does have some unique stores
I love gigantic malls, although that red square one was quite disappointing

Congrats Inge!
do you allknow taht Sithchick posted alist in BabAnon under General???
greetings and felicitations
Smithchick is the name
wow, imagine a sithchick though. come to think of it, star wars is kinda sexist. are there ANY female jedi?
Hurshy, are you related to THE Spider
That's what I'm using, but I swear it wasn't there the first time I looked!
i am down to 9, i need 3 e's, 3 w's and 4 s's. can someone point me to times of lists for those letters?
of course there are Hurshy!!
oops, just saw that smithchick posted. thanks for the tip
She posted it recently, like 40 minutes ago
you see loads in the films!
who's THE spider?
Joey, go in the Babanon link, then under general and you'll see the post with the list.
That explains it!
all the jedi i can remember are male
bunny just posted the w's about 15 minutes ago
remember Charlotte???
maybe just cause they're the ones i find attractive :)
I saw female Jedi's in the newer films.
charlotte with the web, yes
well you're not paying attention enough! go and watch them again!
ok but AFTER babble
erica
opesy, sorry :(
you see Jocasta in the Library with Obi-Wan, and she's there again when Ani goes on his killing spree. There are female padawans there too. Then there's Shaak Ti and another Twi'lek or two in the fight scenes. And quite a few more
i do recall the little girl padawans, yes... jocasta! unfortunate name choice.
clue for the last ca5?
why unfortunate?
ca 5/12 - c + what you breath + cons
isn't jocasta the one who slept with her father?
oh ... yes ...!
she did something ic4, at any rate.
angel
she died saving the young ones in the temple in RotS. Ani killed her. Brat.
angel ca5 is a heap of stones set up as a monument
YOU'RE the one who likes him
Plebian, what's your icon say?
harry potter coins should count :(
he's a poor misunderstood boy ;)
harry certainly is :)
harry is a whiny brat at the moment
no, he was a whiny brat in 5, he got better by the end of 6
better, but still a whiny brat
what do you think of the hypothesis that snape is still good, and killed dumbledore at dumbledore's wish, bc otherwise draco would have had to and that would have turned him to the dark side (to borrow a phrase...)
...sneaking in, I don't think Snape is bad, and I'm debating whether Dumbledore is actually dead?
good morning
I agree with it, pretty much
i thought he might not be dead when he first died but then i think rowling went out of her way to make sure we didn't keep thinking that.
Morning pappa
Morning Pappa
rick
sorry
the one that really irked me was sirius's death. it was 100% because of harry's stupidity, and now harry's REALLY got nobody.
Do they have a preview for Order of the Phenoix movie?
not sure
puky and pukier should count.
I think he's dead. Not entirely sure if Sirius is 100% dead, but he's at least physically dead
and yes they do, bunny
oh he's dead. they had that whole convo about why he wouldn't be a ghost, and why harry's parents weren't either...
Do you know where?!?!
its on mytube, I know that much
I reckon they should as well hurshy and how on earth can ther be 14 Ks!!
rowling isn't the type to pull a feel-good stunt where everyone's "not really dead"
Ooh, are discussing snape theories? Good morning!
yeah, but we all thought rowling wasn't the sort to kill off charries randomly and write unbelievably crap novels ...
rowling's dead?!?!?!?!
the s's p's and h's are worse than the k's
good morning... is anyone else having issues with Lickety's page today?
well yes but ata, there is a difference between failing to live up to expected quality and changing one's whole tone
Yup yps, it's not working today. Go to anon for a list.
Am I the only peson in the world who hasn't read or seen any Harry Potter? And has no wish to!!
yes, I am ypsi... I was just about to ask the same thing
thx bunny
what do we have in the way of funny letter combos? ps, pt, ts...?
JFB, if you don't mind my asking, why not read HP?
JFB, yup! I love HArry Potter, I just hate waiting years to see the next movie or read the next book. I'm not that patient.
hursh, 2 ph's?
got the ph's
The rest are tu & pu.
Just so as I know!
I have yet to watch Goblet of Fire and I pre-ordered it, I just cannot find the time to watch it, I think my 3yr old might have something to do with it
sigh.
i mean that's good, but sigh anyway.
Ypsi... you guys getting snowed on over there?
I read the books, now with a bit of reluctance. I loved the first 3 and was very unimpressed with the 4th and 5th. 6th was ok. But I haven;t seen any films past Chamber of Secrets
the 4th was the best one! it was the 5th where it was disappointing
6 of those pu's all relate to one another (what you'd call a wild kid)
6, really? i have 3 of those ones. cool.
4 now...
gosh i can't see what else to do with that
I think the fifth could have used some editing - e.g. I don't see the whole grawp storyline going anywhere useful for the plot or thematically.
Try adding a vowel to the shortest one, the add onto that with a cons, they are weird
ah, ok. maybe those 2 aren't actually related...
grawp may go somewhere - she's really been building up the whole giant thing for a while
good happy Friday, all!
Sorry, meant letter wise. I should start looking at the defs!
Morning Stid!!
hi stid
hi stid!
{{{{Stid}}}}
the 5th's troubles were mainly that harry should have known by THEN that he should TALK TO DUMBLEDORE, and that it was kind of repetitive and drawn out
There's a theory that the books reflect the seven tasks that the kids go through at the end of the first book - if you remember the fifth chamber is the one that had the knocked-out stinky troll, and the kids didn't have to do anything much themselves. Pretty well sums up book five, imo. :-)
hi blood! what's that bright icon today? brb
LOL blood -- now I have to find the word...
hi daisy
it's a clue for pu4/10 and 4 other words build off it!
hi blood
make that 5 other words.
hi smooth.
i gots sp8, what's the other 8?
I got the pu 4/10, now working on everyting else! Only 153 to go!
hey pappa!
Hurshy, you may be right about grawp, maybe she needed to have character who is a giant for something.
hurshy....su8. more sad.
hi stid... :-D
she has a LOT to accomplish to really redeem herself in book seven.
ty blood
its not often that the death of one character makes me like a series less, but I've really had little interest in the books after sirius's death
hey smooth, is that a self portrait?
yeah, i think that was a bad move. book 5 overall just... disappointing... but maybe somehow she'll make it make sense and seem worthwhile in the end
Done, I'm gonna run outside to smoke and come back to clue for a few.
maybe she will ... and I wish I felt hopeful she will ...
lol chj don't I have wonderful legs? HA!
NOOOOOOOOOOO bunny don't do it!!!!!!!!
yay bunny!
yahoooooooooooooooooooobunny
no... it was the tamest picture I had for the SL4... I wasn't sure what all is postable here. lol
YAY bunny!
*hack*hack*
hahah...brilliant clue pappa!
*hitting tor on back* tor! tor! you okay?
stupid h's
he's hacking to show bunny the effects of smoking
Hs are hideous
tor said a word!!!
I did some promo work for a group of burlesque dancers here, and got some great pictures that would fit... but like I said, they aren't the mildest pictures I've ever taken
Yeah, it was the cig smoke . .*koff*
and using a word, and causing me to use a word
oopsie . .
oh -- wondered about that. I just stop breathing around it... can't go to houses where anyone smokes. My lungs close up. :-(
thanks for the word, though!
it's ok tor...i still love you...
hey all. am back w/ a big cup o java and ready to finish this beast of a grid.
hi gail!
morning babblers
Thanks ..
I have 120 to go... wanna race?
bring it on gail.
rae rae!
IM is up
112 here stid... lets go!
heya. anybody finish this thing yet??
hey hey
i am going to use a word, bc i have a funny story, and it isn't funny without it.
I am having a quiet morning to babble guilt-free first day in 9 that I have had quiet before 10:30...
hae rae!
ok we forgive you in advance
hope it's a word i need, hurshy ;)
hi stid...your snow going away?
me too..
oooh funny story.. go on, hurshy. :)
i got an email this morning where they apparently didn't have the field for my first name filled in in their database, because the subject said, "Null, Order your Personalized Christmas Ornament Now!" isn't that delicious irony?
our snow is now mostly memory, except where the children piled it up a little. you?
hahaha...that's great hurshy.
looool thats fab
lol, hurshy.
ROFL hurshy! (my hero zero...)
still got lots of it...haven't been to work in a week, my driveway is an ice rink
but i already had that word...tell another story.
so, ya gonna order one? heh.
lol blood
i can't just go on using words willy nilly!
wow, rae -- that's rough. You're on the big island, right? I heard Victoria area was pretty bad off.
despite the temptation to make up stories using weird words...
fine...i guess i'll just have to find them on my own :(
in sidney...the power was out for over 20 hours on monday/tuesday
it was verry cold
That's a hoot, hurshy . . .I like the ones that try to look like hand written letters, and they're addressed to "Current Resident" ..
lol
i think i'm done through the Es...
cute story rae...
Does anyone know how to get Lickety to display the current list - mine keeps showing yesterday's
oh thanks
it is not there today, is the word on the street, anike
I need to update it though...it's old
oh I bet it was cold! you shoulda come down here -- our power stayed on for some reason!
it's broken today anike.
It's melting so fast outside it's like it's raining, steam everywhere!
gasp! I hope Lickety's okay...
I wish...my parents are in mexico!!!!!!!!!1
hi guys, Lickety isn't displaying todays list as he's on the road.........
anywhere else to get clues?
there is a list in babanon
yep. we're at dewpoint, too, bunny. Can't see the tops of the trees a couple houses away.
give your heart and soul to me and life will always be la vie en rose...
I took some video and posted it on youtube
there is, pappa? hot dayam. lol.
but BJ hasn't been able to update his list in weeks because he's traveling! We're sunk! *sob*
nah, stid, smithchick posted a list
Is babanon Babblers anonymous?
lol
and if she hadn't someone else would have :)
WOW. *kisses smithchick's feet*
Yes anike
ahh stid...but we have something better...Each Other
*and kisses hurshy's feet for telling us*
Hey stid, all my saplings froze, I wasn't prepared, but they are bigger ones...think they'll live thru it? I mulched em pretty good...
oh bloodaxe *gag* how sweet! ;-)
Fireworks!!!
WTG Angel!!
hold it now and watch the hoodwink as i make you stop, think you'll think you're looking at aquaman
Babblers in Lu4/5 ..
cheers angelsong!
yes bunny, they should be fine. The real problem is when things thaw too fast after a freeze. The tops may die back a little, but they should be okay if it didn't get TOO cold...
YAY angelsong!
Hooray angel!
wtg angelsong
I want "crink" to be a word. If ngwee can be a word, then crink can, too.
HA!
if ngwee can be a word, any cool combination of letters can be!
chickedy china the chinese chicken you have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin
You sholda seen me runnin around in the freezing rain, I brought in 18 plants, it's like a jungle in here!
ac 6/24?
Off to work in while to better go, see you later

Bye ren8
ac6!
I hope the smoking man's in this one
yep. my big "garden tub" is just that, bunny! LOL I have given up on ever having a bath again. (and yes, I still shower...)
ac 6 - ac + opp of out + another word for we
thanks Angelsong!
like kurasawa i make mad films, ok i don't make films but if i did they'd have a samurai
Ata! I LOVE X Files! and a friend of mine has a grandson who plans to be in the FBI!
soemthing...something...always flying off the back swing
thanx bunny
2 more a's and an e will finish my vowel words
hot like wasabi ... umm is that the same verse or a different one?
Anyone have a clue for the NI 618????
that's the first verse, but what's the diff :)
like sn5/20ers guaranteed to satisfy
hot like wasabi when I bust rhymes
I get confused if I don't actually sing along with it!
{{{NANCY}}} haven't seen you forever! you okay?
be like leann rymes since I'm all about values
i love songs that have lots of words that you have to sing really fast :)
i hate that song.....
ni6,18 ni + nickname for Ms Fitzgerald ( famous female jazz singer)
ni 6 - ni + wishing w*** + vowel
ooh, thanks for that ni
Hi Stid, yes, just rolling along in the sunshine. I do really feel bad :) for the people in the snow and cold though.
i want echinacea
don't feel bad nancy, some of us loove the snow. :)
and cold
i mean the word, not the stuff
I like Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" for that
got that ni -- kept going the wrong way!
I enjoy the snow, it's a rare treat.
I want mercenary and macarena
and yakko's countries of the world song!
i want "kiln"~
noo...blame Canada!
good to hear you're okay. inundated with snowbirds, I expect though!
I want chocolate!
i don't think macarena would count
still want it LOL
bunny, thanks for the clue, and smooth, I put in my time in Michigan and froze many a year.....
if i could wave a wand and give you macarena, i would
stid, how are you doing these days???
Ooh, Stid, I still have fundge, turtles, triple chocolate cake and brownies left over, help yourself!
Nancy, i spent the first 27 years of my life in minnesota. Tell me about freezing!
I am well. This is the first day since before Thanksgiving that the kids have gotten to school on time... it is wonderful.
fundge??!!
thanks bunny! *munch munch*
yay stid!
oops, fudge...
*giggles* fundge doesn't sound as nice ...
wow, bunny. i think i'm going to O.D.
*tries to refrain from spoiling her lunch by eating moose munch*
gail, so you can understand my not wanting to freeze anymore.
I can't eat it:(
for sure, Nancy! That's why I'm in SO CAL.
why not, bunny?
Chocolate allergy.
I can have white chocolate though.
I just ate leftover shepherd's pie for breakfast...
i think the temp here is in the 60s, and i've turned on the furnace (talk about a weather wimp!)
that's a bummer, bunny
*gasp* that's the worst, saddest thing I ever heard...
i had a friend in HS who was allergic to chocolate - poor thing used to just smell our candy wrappers
super logo gail
aww, geezo, bunny!
woot, got the T's
I can eat virtual chocolate with impunity, but allergies to wheat and animal milk make me very cautious in real life.
go hurshy go!
I have less than a hundred to find
I have less than a hundred to find
i know people with wheat allergies, stid. they do have to be very very careful.
i have 19 to find
83 here stid
good thing i'm reading the nine tailors now, helped me get sl6
Think I'd rather be allergic to chocolate than wheat, can't live without my wheat bread and pasta.
there are a lot of wheat-free products now.
my Tom makes me bread without wheat. fortunately, it's not a gluten allergy, but one of the other proteins in wheat.
same here bunny! I adore chocolate ... but a lifetime without pasta? unthinkable
you brits don't spell it cancre?
what bugs me is that they charge more $$$ to take stuff OUT!
LOL hurshy!
I agree gail!
I better get unless anyone needs a clue. Housework with my named plastered all over it.
later bunny... (not far enough along to need clues)
k, bunny. take care.
i'll take a clue on the top E
ec + endo***** (immune system stuff)
That Babanon is ridiculous - it doesn't matter what user name & password you enter (even straight from their confirmation email) it comes back with invalid password
ec 7/36 - ec + take a bit out of ***m* (drug dog saying), replace m with another cons
ec = of or pertaining to certain sweat glands, distributed over the entire body, that secrete a type of sweat important for regulating body heat
ce 5/12?
a plethora of clues! thanks, got it
i got to see the smithchick's list w/o logging in, anike.
ce 5/12 - ce + increase in pay rate is a ***se, switch around the vowels (def. - a white-to-yellow, heavy powder)
you only have to log in to post, not to read
ce 5/12= ce + spanish river, but use different vowel at the end.
bichons look ready to go out for their walk!
spelunk would be good to have
Ya'll have an excellent day, I'm gonna get to cleaning! Bye now.
*peers at bichon to see if she has to go for a walk*
i'm working on the Ks. ugh.
thanks guys and gals
i just need one more K
ata, do you have all the k's?
anike, I might be able to help, I have some administrator privileges at babanon... email me if you like.
hurshy, I'd love to go for a walk instead of being cooped up at work
I need 9 more K words and 80 assorted others!
I just finished K hurshy... whattcha need?
stid - i had the same problem, can't log in for love or money
no ... i need 2 more
well i don't know pappa. i have 3 ka, 1 kh, 3 ki, 6 kn
just a sec, I'll see what I can find.
Happy day - half way . .
crink
4 ki
it looks like you need one more KI
alrighty ditey
4 ki?? ack
can you clue the kh?
Well, I could see Bab Anon without logging in. When I logged in, it was slow, and bumped me to an ad (I just scrolled down and clicked no thanks).... but I got it.
yay Ks done!
CAN i??? the wrath of k4
my k's are done as well. :)
thanks hurshy!
ahh. thanks!
10% left... how about you ata?
hi again all. Lickety still down!
hi Gwen. Looks like we're on our own.
35 ... been faffing around all day!
you faffer you
gail, very nice ocon there!
i mena ICON
yes gwen, *sob* Lickety still down.
i mean . . . oh forget it LOL
might have to find words with out it! OMG
but there is a post from Smithchick in BabAnon that lists the start letters... Under "General"
thanks, Gwen. It's my permanent state when doing babble grids! ;-[}
that's the trouble with these new-fangled inventions, like kerosene... folks get to dependin' on 'em
babanon is a public list?
yes gwen, for reading. If you want to post, you need a free login
i guess you could say lickety split
hmmm, maybe i'll visit there when i get *really* stuck
argh, chj
oh chj...
i was looking for a diff clue page and found an ongoing Boggle page. Played a few 3-minute rounds over there.
BAAAAD, chj!
Gwen, was that weboggle?
yes, that's weboggle - log in as Team Babble if you want to join your score with any other babblers who happen to be around
the louder the groans the better the pu4/6
yay for weboggle!
Oh good - it is bad for my ego to play solo there. anyway, someone else started using my usual name there lately.
atal, yup, that was it. i didn't bookmark it cuz then i'll be forced to waste time over there, too!
WOW! I got to halfway! going to drink some coffee and eat my breakfast cookies (they're oatmeal, so it counts!) and then be back.
i still need 2 CR's, what CAN they be??
does anyone have a list of the 7's yet?
plus, weboggle doesn't work on Mozilla so I had to launcht eh self destruct (IE) to use it
yes, I'm having trouble with the cr's also
i have 5 of them, cr, ec, hu, pu, tu
i have: cr7 ec7 pu7
hursh, you have the ones that sound like embrodery, but the 4th letter is diff?
weboggle works fine on mozilla ... well it does for me :)
weboggle works on mozilla usually
the cr's are very cr6/33
how many crs are there?
I think I have all of the cr's - 8,right?
I do WebBoggle on Mozilla
atal, maybe you have diff version. i have firefox 2.0

Thanks Bloodaxe - if I finish this, we can eat.
i always say, i'm so fond of the spaces between battlements on a castle.
you and i? are we going on a date?
it's not that unusual in the adjective form though, that's how I got it by back-formation.
the top A has indian governess, and...?
aack would be apropos, but no go
ae5/12
the adjective form meaning having a notched edge
thanks haz
No Bloodaxe - we means my family.
oh....*sigh
I'm FAR too old for you!
*whimpers*
Whimpering why?

Well done ron!

oh --- right! my friend studied with him at Cold Spring Harbor. I have heard a LOT about him...
The other is formed in the same way, Bloodaxe, but uses a different consonant in the middle. All to do with battlements and the spaces therein.
thanks gwen.
Hurshy, that was my last of the top Cs you're an angel

hursh, your mom's cousin was Rosaline Franklin?
no, she was just an assistant, she's not famous. her name is jan.

Hi Wolvie

Hi LeslieAnn!
hu 7

chic, where do I go for those lists you mention?
There are two cr7 words - structured the same way but with different consonants in the middle.
I have a cr 7 and a hu 7
I must run now, have to catch ferry to Victoria

cr 7 x2, ec 7, hu 7, pu 7, sp 7, tu 7
go to the bottom of the page in friends of babble to babblers anonymous to general
oh, sorry, it's not updated yet
ec 7 ?--- it's the one I was missing!

ec plus similar to cr word for robbery, but use an n
ec7 - ec plus an old haggard woman but change the vowel so that it rhymes with salty water
hints on the CR7s?
thanks wolvie and haz -- got it
cr7 - plural of abusive sounding embroidery threads
one sounds mean, evan, and builds off the cr 4/9
extend the cr 4/9 - a ship's cr**, eva
the other is a plural to the second cr 6/21
Or cr7/32 - plural space between battlements, formed as with the abusive threads but use a different consonant in the middle.
heh, dont have either CR6/21 yet...
the ship's cr** + the **evated train, then plural
got that one, leslieann -- its the other CR7 i dont have
Okay, I finally understand the whole bit about the icons.
just change the w to a different consonant
Not that I can get it to change apparently...
ahh, thanks!
Oooh - who is clueing with their icons today, then?

hi tink, hi bgmadden!
hi Schroeder and bg. Down to the last pesky 7; did Lickety ever post?
na 5.12?
NM found it
here's the stats aloy: http://tinyurl.com/yk6hln
ty, LeslieAnn
Hi Smaller!
four ki 4/8's, nan
all carbed up for your marathon on sunday???!!!
Eeek don't remind me smaller....I'm babbling to keep my mind occupied.
found it, thanks - leslie
Is cruel to put the puppy in a crate so you can babble?
ayah
oops
bgmadden, that's where i put my kid, so why should a puppy be any worse
sorry
ha, that bab anon was wrong with the order on the NE's
tink, rest those fingers
depends whether you think putting puppies in crates is cruel to start with :P
tink, but only rest them when it doesn't pertain to me
puppies need that safety at times, doing it to adults is something else, imho
smaller - I get tempted to do that to the kids some days...
bgmadden, hahahaha. oh sooooo true
Oh don't worry smaller, I've already sent my morning message for there will be no whine...lol
I wouldn't ever do that to a puppy, but that's just me! Babble time is *very* important though!
tink, woohoo!!! he'll just find something else to whine about anyway.
I did it to my puppy when she was tiny, while I worked. I came home every two hours, luckily I could. She quickly grew out of it and by then didn't seem to need it.
I don't think there's anything wrong with crate training a dog if you do it correctly. My Parent's dog sleeps in his crate but he also uses it as a refuge when the house gets crazy like with a party or something. They never lock him in, they don't have to he goes in on his own.
Atlante - uh, the puppy pees on the foor if I leave the room for a minute.....
tink, so take a trip to portland and "fix" each other
ok, is hy6/27 a fish slapper or what? Can't see it ..
you mean clean the cobwebs?
but I just adopted an 8 month old puppy that is well over 60 pounds, who was often in her crate, and from what I can see, for No reason.

hi vedaman
Yay for Nan!

oh, now I see it.. thanks, Leslie and Bravo to cybernan!
AH, the crate should never be used as a punishment place
is putting puppies in crates common in the US???!!! I've never seen such a thing here!
Way to go Nan!!
wr 5/28: change the vowel in the first 5/28
yes Ata, mostly trainers do it.
yay nan!
ae5 please?
Lickety oh Lickety, wherefore art thou Lickety?
lu 6: more of the lu 4/5
bbl
I just got my dog from a breeder/trainer. This dog was her mutt
I would be lost without my cobwebs....lol
here's the stats mkl: http://tinyurl.com/yk6hln
should say more like the lu 4/5
He is only 4 months old and is stuck to me like velcro unless I do it.
na 5.12???? third call!!
How do you know the letters and point value without Lickety's list?
n + a plot of land
Ata, it's great for insecure dogs--one of my rescue dogs feels really safe in it--I leave the door open--she goes in and out at will
na 5/12: substance that lines a seashell
that is good bg, you want your dog to be by your side unless you tell them to go play.
thank you LA, finally
i'm out for the day - have a wonderful day everyone and stay warm!
tink, think of it as a pelvic exam? if you ask him, i'm sure he'll say he's fully licensed and certified
bye, Leslie...and ty for your help.
my puppy is at my feet now, my other dog is outside, she is in trouble for sneeking in the kitchen and eating the cat food. Kitchen, off limits
anyone else want a clue before I go and make lunch?
thanks LA
Bye Leslie, have a good day :)
bye leslie -- thanks for all the help. :)

April, for some reason animals attach themselves to me...Ask klaurel about her frog some day...
oh Une, thank you! I had sudden awful visions of puppies being shoved in crates and whimpering!
mine can be relentless, that is why they know 'go play' or 'go lay down'. They can be a constant.
c'nan: the ce5?
LOL oh that's good smaller, I'm sure those would be his exact words.
ha 5/14 and st 5/12..pls
na 5/18: lining of a sea shell

Would somebody please help me with the first re5/18?? Please?

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
yes stid...what a writer does, and to make fresh.
I just had a conversation on the phone with a lady from DOVE, wanting me to agree with her about movie censorship and how Hollywood doesn't suppport family values... I told her that was not true and it's up to parents to monitor what their kids see.
I guess our storm finally is making its way across North America. Do you have enough firewood ready, Nut?
Yes there are, stid
technically yes stid, only it's not inside
I only have the re 5/18 that is to check a library book out again... I don't know if that's first or second
okay, just as long as hubbynut can find it!

Hi jean
hi jean
Just stopping by briefly. Johammer, there is a list by a babbler named Smithchick to be found in BabAnon under General
johammer -- hi, and yes, there are 2 lists -- Lickety's is now available and the other is a Babblers Anonymous (scroll down)
water flows thru it, betty - rhymes with orange j****
hi inge
Thanks Wolvie
So lickety came through after all. Did he explain where he was when we NEEDED him???
thanks, Wolvie
thanks wolvie I was missing that one!
AHHHHHHHH JUST 4 LEFT AND I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN HOLD ON!
second ni 5/12 please?
Wolvie, how much snow do you have? We have none so far
sorry. just had to vent for a moment. *deep, heaving breaths*

Yay TheFiz!!
YAY for The Fiz!!!
ahhh. easy to understand, inge. cya. :-)
hooray fiz..... gott a go now... will be back later to finish off the last 29
johammer and mlwalla -- if you use Lickety's list there is a box at the top where you can type in the words you get and hit enter -- the word will go to the right spot in the list so you can tell what you need. Beside that box is a little black square containing a ? and if you type the first 2 letters of a word and hit that, it will take you to the list which begins with those letters.
congrats fiz!!!
nice, I think I could sit here all 24 hours and not get all the words
anyone need clues?
that happens to most of us, johammer!
ooh, thanks Jilli
that's helpful!
I was wondering why all the clues people give were in 2 starting letter format...

Ankh, my green thumb husband thinks you could root Periwinkle now. but why not wait till spring???
Minver, pretty well thanks. What the heck kind of a word was that first sn 5/20? Took me awhile to get it....
Oh, Inge, I'll wait -- does he think the cuttings in a water glass method will work? If so, may I make several cuttings from just one strand?
ankh, this grey thumb here thinks that you could root it or transplant it, the stuff is so hardy - it's like a weed in our yard!
Does anyone have a clue for the hu 7/52 word please
more hu 4/10
hu = extension of the hu 4/10
tu 6 & 7?
Thank you for the hu clues.Finished my hu words now
Well, Tea, here's the deal: I have about 10 strands about eight feet long. I'd like to have thirty strands, roughly two feet long. So I'm wondering if I can make that happen.
try to root the top sections only, middle pieces wont work
Lori, hu4 10?
"Top" meaning the natural ends, on the end which is not the root?
hu 4/10 a guy who's a real ****
that should give you twenty plants anyway. But you should have side shooots you can root as well
A hot guy. George Clooney is one!
hu 4/10 rhymes with su 4/9 and st 5/10 Ankhorite.
I'm calling it a day! Bye everyone and thanks for all the clues.
Oh, Lori. I had it in my profile but not in my wordlist! Bye, Bilton, thanks for all clues!

Goofbye Biltong! I will see you tomorrow in the chat!
G'night Bilt, have a good one.

I haven't got to the tu's yet, sorry.
Very sweet of you, Tea!

aknitter - looks fine to me!
Thank you for the re clues. Finished my re words now

Well done, Min.
68 words to go don't think i'll be finishing this one
Does anyone have a clue for the we 6/30 word please
i wonder why it won't accept cancre
aknitter - I didn't finish yesterday's. Felt so ill, I couldn't focus after half way. Went to bed about 10pm and then got up to take cough mixture after about 3+ hours and then got up after 5+ hours so as not to disturb partner anymore with my coughing. Tried to finish grid then but it flipped 2 mins early when I still had about 80+ to go.:(
i do not like leaving things half done
the word is spelled canker
nope cancre -- as in VD sore
Hi 8201girl! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

Actually,I need the second tu 512 word if you have it

Yep,that's it Jacula!Thank you so much for the clues!
y/w, Min.
LOL, aknitter. Same here.
ok...off the phone with my sister and can devote full attention to grid and chat
i think i have read of them in ancient books jac
Welcome back, Dorens.
aknitter - Me, too!;)
thanks jac.... your goodgifts.org has some fascinating stuff
Jac, yes we6 is a sausage, but we call them hot dogs
Dorens - It does, yes!
lbd - that's what we call them, too. The proper sausage for a hotdog is a 'frakfurter'. I don't like those, though. I prefer 'proper' long pork sausage. Aren't the we6/30s those sausages on sticks?
are you involved in it (vested interest) or just passing at along cause you know we babblers would enjoy it?
Dorens - just passing it along because I thought the rest of you might enjoy it.
Jac, those are called corn dogs...yuck.
well, thank you... we do
*frankfurter. See! Said this stupid 'man 'flu' I've been infected with has zapped my poor brain.:(
lol Jac, i knew what you meant
but we knew what you meant....and most of us have been known to throw in a typo or two....all only human
i think i'll go and knit a bit BBL
lbd - Glad you said 'yuck' 'cos I've always thought they looked revolting.
later AK
See you tomorrow/later, aknitter.
bye knitter
bye
i don't like corndogs or hotdogs...gag. i'll eat a bratswurst on occassion, only if there is absolutely nothing else to eat
ok, so now I'm down to the last two and have been looking at these for a while. getting tempted to ask for a clue, but not just yet
ask if you need to Dorens
bratwurst - my ex used to love those German sausages. Never liked the look of them myself. Spanish chorizo is nice cooked with mixed lettuce, beetroot, gherkins, virgin olive oil & balsamic vinegar.
yayyyy got them on my own (it was the tu 6/7 combo) fireworks here (thanks anyway lbd)
(You do need to drain the fat off after cooking the sausages first though.
Well done, Dorens!
spanish chorizo makes the best huevos rancheros jac
whoo hoo Dorens!
Good evening everybody!
chorizo is good, i don't mind the taste, the smell gets to me tho.
hi charm... thanks jac and lbd
Hey Charm
Hey, Dorens, lbdawger (been a while....)
hi everyone! : )
Hey, TO
Hi TO!
hi temple
Hi Charm. I'll try not to breathe or cough on you. (I have The Dread Lurgey!)
Hi, TO.
Dorens - Not tried that. I see it's recommended as a breakfast dish?? I'd try it for later in the day but prefer something bland for first meal of day.
ah5/14please?
a = bottom of ship
doh! ty dorens and congrrats - just saw you finished
what the heck is the dreaded lurgey?
*or even The DreadED Lurgey! Take care, this little horror zaps both brain and body.
Congratulations Dorens on yoour fireworks! Hooray!
Hello Charm!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
Hi 72 Temple Owl? How are you? Welcome to the grid!
hey min!
Hey, Min - doing well.
Hey, TO
The Dreaded Lurgey is the 'Man 'Flu' that is currently sweeping the world (or the UK at very least). It's horrible! It begins with a dry, tickly cough an a bit of a sore throat, then you get a little light-headed. You alternate between being freezing cold & burning up. You cough so much you feel in need of an inhaler.
Does anyone have a clue for the sp 5/22 word please
Never mind! I just got the sp 5/22 word. Thank you!
sounds perfrectly dreadful : (
Min - sp5/22 means 'energy' or 'cheek' or 'nerve' everywhere but UK. Here, it is another word for 'male seed'.
TO - It is! Take care to spray the chatlog with dettox or something!
lol! if you can give me the two words after the cr5 fishing basket/s, we'll call it even!
Jac, sounds terrible...how long have you had this?
those two cr words are like the 6/7 combo that follow, but change the middle consonant, temple
Dorens - it began on Sunday/Monday.
Does anyone have a clue for the tu 5/14 word please
a week of that?// keep it on your side of the pond, please
ok that would be cr6/21 and 7/32?
TO - cr6/21 & plural 7/32 are the spaces between the merlons (sticky up bits) on castle battlements.
min: long blouse or shirt
thanks, Jac.
oh heck - why didn't you say so earlier! : /
The following cr6/33 (& plural 7/48) are worsted embroidery thread.
yes TO-- same as cr 6/33 and 7/48 with different middle consonant
Min, add a vowel to the end of that long blouse....
X D
Does anyone have a clue for the tu 7/36 word please
add two vowels to your tu 5/14 min
Min - add a vowel to the tu5.14.
Min, latin pl of that long blouse + vowel.
Sorry, Min. To your tu6, I meant.

Oh, well done, TO. My ex and I missed son's graduation ceremony last week, as did he, because he forgot to send the form to reserve our places off! He may have a BA Hons, but.... *sigh*

Sorry, but I don't get the piddle clue as good as it is.

Any Pooh fans here? BACKSON. BISY BACKSON

Ooh, ren. I thought maybe you'd bitten on a hard insect.

No, jac -- delicious commercial frozen lasagna with home-made salad
Wasn't the kitchen door was it, ren?
hahahha hm that sounds better mistress...a hard back beetle?

sl6 - where nurses sterilise surgical instruments.
nope -- I can't stand vodka
no that's annie and rennie
chj are you reading my mind? scary!
or gin
i mean chj's clue and vodka
lbd - you could be right - unless it's a virus. In which case, antibiotics would not work.
twins of different mothers
however, rum is another story ;D
hi!
lbue screwdriver
blue
Stid was doing rum earlier
annie and i were separated at birth - yankee fans at heart - so some thing never change
hey pappa!
hiya pappa
wow smooth, that's some pic!
hey ya smooth
hey again smooth
Yuk, no, not rum. Hate rum! Whisky, whiskey or bacardi... maybe.
lol in what way evan?
are there chains and whips involved with that pic smooth? lol
nice icons people!
yayayayaya jac.....WHISKEY smooth...um, becuase it's black and white.
Gracious, Dawg, maybe the man just appreciates the SOFTER things in life, like lingerie!
yayaya we're people
Oh, Paul would like that pic, smooth! Maybe not right now when he's just been turned out of bed for work... but any other time.. LOL.
lol no dawg... It was part of a promo shoot I did for some burlesque dancers... it was the safest thing I could find for SL4 ;)
lol pappa
Jac, rum's better than whiskey... I think so.
That's my name Jac. lol I do like that pic. HA!
LOL smooth
its tamer than ankh's hamsters
So, Pappa...how do you like MY icon, huh huh huh?
Indeed it is, chj.
ank!!! you naughty girl!!!
Hee hee, Evan!
HA nice ankh! lol i Think mine is tamer. lol
Ankh - I see you didn't put the animated version of that icon on here? LOL.
i had to look up the def of tu4
Oh, Evan, will you be there long? Cuz we could ask Dr. God to use the Vatican flag for you.
Jac! IS there an animated version, huh huh?
Of course yours is tamer, Pappa. These be WILD hamsters.
we could ank...but it would be against my freelance christaindome.
Ankh - I think I have seen one somewhere.
i'd blush at ankh's icon, but i'm laughing too hard
Aw, thanks, Dawg!
Jac, pleeeeze if you ever see it again, pleeeeze pinch it for me!
why blush dawg? hamsters have needs too... lol
"All ur hamsters r blong to me"
pinch it? oh my...
so you say smooth!
Sheesh, Evan, I meant swipe it...no pinching during mating!
brb.....phone
hehe
ec7 anyone?
Its like the two ceramic rabbit banks we have here -- one is black and standing on his hind legs, the other is crouched, but when you place them in the right position they are reminiscent of the hamsters
hey ank, if there is pinching going on, i DON'T wanna know ;9
ec+endo****, besure to double the curve letter
where did rae go? oh rae rae where are you????
ce + sounds like what police arrest you for, with a different consonant near end
Grey! My mother had cow salt & peppers like that, and we didn't realize that's what they could do for YEARS!
i dunno ren, i talked to here earlier....like talking to air
*mimics rae's voice* here i am, ren!
LOL!!!
hahahha smooth! good improv!
LOL, Pappa, you so smooth.... dang, gotta go again for a few, bb soon.
endo?
(Yeah, Grey, my mother was horrified the day we all figured it out).
look out or rae might use her ninja eyeshadow on you
and now chj's gone - is there a line at the punch bowl?
see ya ankh
*might be at the punch bowl for a while*
hmmm, smooth wearing eyeshadow...now that would be an interesting icon
who punched me?
only if it's spiked
judy did punch
with rum
HA! dawg... wouldn't that be something! lol
what color eye shadow?
so how is everyone's word count? I still have 67 to go
um... what collors do they come in?
like the she-hamster did the he-hamster?
all this cuz of smooth's icon, pinching, punching, spiking...oh my
done dun dun dun!
black of course ren!
done here wolfie
sounds like a pretty quiet night then, lbd -- should we open the jacuzzi too?
evan... you just reminded me of an old irish folk song, about a man named dunn... and how he was done, and his childeren named dunn
dun de dun dun
oooh jacuzzi! i'm there wolfie
dunn-o smooth, never heard it
was he undone by his son dunn?
now you have to sing it for us pappa -- I have a tune going thru my head now, but no words to match
here for jacuzzi
dunno
ya'll can jacuzzi, i'll sit up on the tower and lifeguard
im sleeping on the raft
you got a whistler nut?
thanks Nut, but i have my water wings with me
you always sleep on the raft chj!
yep ren, a big pink whistle
better than sleeping under the raft
CANNONBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SPLA T
hahahah dawg!
*pats pockets for the keys, then remembers and pulls them out from under the eave of the roof* I put them there so I would never lose them again ;) Unlocks the door
just a sec woulf... I can't find the lyrics online, so I'll have to type them from memory
*blows whistle*
chj gets a time out?
chj -- you should have waited until the door was open before doing that
chj, you broke the cover! gw didn't open it yet!
cool, smooth - thanks
that was a splintered splat splash
ouch
i think chj, might be knocked out
i broke my twofers on the gate
alliteratively speaking of course ren
the raft definitely deflated
oooh now chj looks like rennie's twin
i think i need a splint for my arm
there are plenty of splinters
there's plenty of splintered wood for that
I once was well acquainted with a man named joseph dunn, a very special kind of man who like to have some fun. he courted well and married was, by the age of twenty-one, and a very respectable family had mr. and mrs. dunn.
and plenty of towels for binding
hey everyone!
29 to go here
Hi HK, do you know first aid?
a w=oody splint
Chours: for there was high dunns and low dunns and over dunns and under dunns.. All the other younger dunns in and out they run. There was young dunns and old dunns and young dunns youngest son young dunn will be a dunn when old dunn's done
lol smooth, i wish i knew the tune, it sounds like a cute song
Oh Lord! What have I missed?
i have band-aids, neosporin, ummm - don't move a person until the ambulance comes - yep, that about covers it
keys, towels for binding? what's been going on whilst I was away?
In the course of time, the mr. Dunn, he found himself a wife and soon he found he had to fight the hardest fight in life to keep their little bellys full, and a wife that weighd a ton, and any man who can do all that you'd havce to say well done!
chorus again:
a lot Jac, woulfie is opening up the jacuzzi, but chj ran into the door, and popped out his front toofs and hurt his arm too.
Just a typical day in Babbleonia, Jac
I have my cossie on!! get that cuzzie open... it is cold out here!
good night everybody. eyes need toothpicks to stay open tonight....
When Mrs. dunn presented dunn with their first bouncing son they called him herbert shamus dunn and named him cherry plum, and when the bread of life went out and child did more did come: says Mrs Dunn to Mr. Dunn, more better will be done.
we have splinters charm if that will help
and that's it, I think... a gerat fun irish song.
hey hey mrp!!!!!
had to read the chat back to see who needed the first aid - oh yeah, wait, you gotta call 9-1-1 first, then comes the ambulance!
mrp sweetie honey baby!!!!
well, stop dithering and jump on in, mrp!
Jacula -- I see you're here -- just got back from my delicious frozen commercial lasagna and I stick by my guns. Maybe you can't get it in the UK -- microwaved Michelina's Appetito Lasagna Bolognese -- better than any home made I've ever had and a boon to old singles like me!
(((ren nut woulf chj)))
OK, now I'm poised to provide clues if needed
what's a cossie mrp,....something sexy?
a cossie is aussie slang for swimsuit! :) very sexy!!
cossie -- cute word! what's the driviation?
no swimsuits allowed in the cuzzie...its nekkid friday
*derivation
naked day is always a good thing
we had a really terrific lunch at the northwestern memorial hospital cafeteria - i had eggplant parmesaen & hub had tuna noodle casserole - of course, he'll eat anything, but his really was good, mine was great!
cuzzie?
mrp - & how do you all pronounce that word?
but chj! it is saturday here!! it is kiddies day in our cuzzie!! :)
I have 3 words left and would love some clues
how many threads are interweaving here?
anike -- what do you need?
helen, it is pronounced COZZ-EE
hi all! hi mrp!
*jigging myself into a drunken stupor*
hi again stid!
hi everyone!!!
hi stid!
oooh smoooth!
you just missed my irish music, stid...
kids in the cuzzie?
{{{{WOULFFFFFFFF}}}}
well, fiddle, pappa! LOL
hi volley!
jilli -- way back around this time last year or perhaps a few months earlier, Smeltzdog was the keeper of the keys to the jacuzzi for all of us to hang out and have fun while hunting
jili... this music is ADDICTIVE!
Just popped by to say that I got a new chapter loaded just now...
When he could no longer make it here on a regular basis, the keys were passed to me
{{{stidmama}}}
Meant to give the words I'm looking for : we 6/30, sn 5/10 (2nd one) and ni 6/18
*runs at full tilt toward the water and jumps in!*
ok, nice warm water and jets -- mmmm
tx mrp - i'm watching 6 feet under & it's amazing to hear rachel griffin get interviewed cause she plays an american, but she sounds so weird to me speaking with her aussie pronouciation
jilli - I'll take your word for that re the lasagne.
we6 -- oh I wish I was an oscar mayer we****
not me, Woulf! too many sulfites! LOL give me a good tofu dog any day!
see, not being a fan of commercials, I cl;ued that as hot dog
People jigging themselves to music in drunken stupors? Frozen lasagne? Oh heck! LOL.
hello 97 to go .
jacula, you are too taurus for words, like me
stidgrant just lost another tooth. *sigh* like leaves falling from a tree, each one signals the inevitable winter of adolescence approaching...
hey harp!! {HUG}
hi harp!
Sorry Greywoulf - I can't follow that - is oscar mayer a person?
Hi Harp. It seems to be a madhouse here to a 'sick but sober one'.
hi harp!
'Sick' as in, cugh! cough! ILL!
anike, there is a brand of hot dog/sausage in the United States called "Oscar Meye"
see? US commercials don't translate
Poor Stidmama... Anike, Oscar Meyer is a hot dog company; frankfurters, weiners.
it is a brand of hot dog, anike
ankh -- you said a wooord!!!
oooh Ankh!!!!! *ppoints finger in horror*
*looks longingly at the cuzzie (COOOzee, right?) but has to go reboot*
not any word, THE word!
*shaking from the trauma*
NO! I didn't! It's a plural! OH GOSH NO!
*leaps into the cuzzie and tries to drown herself in shame*
TY - not an Australian thing that's why I was confused
LOL aren't I supposed to toss you a fish Ankh?
ahhh, Ankh! Hi harp
lol no don't ankh!
see?
*surfaces LIKE a fish and goes back under*
*pulls Ankh out and shows here where to refill my drink...*
*slops over and gets Stid a drink, to help her recover from the shock of it all*
sorry, sorry... seriously, I gotta reboot, see you all in a bit
ROFL... your poor little hamsters look a little worse for the wear, I think the water took the curl out of their perm!
oh you can tell it is a fun night in the 'cuzzi -- I have only bothered looking for one word in the past fifteen mins
*waddles off, a wet and embarrassed little rodent*
Hint to all -- try to be international in your clues
Beloved has just driven off to work. Jac wonders whether to pour herself a glass of wine at 4:16 am.
LOL woulf!
Well, do you need to be somewhere in the later morning, Jac? If not...
go for it Jac
**POOF**
sure jac... why not? i'm having a beer.
jilli - I always try to temper my clues to the nationality of the person asking for them.
no, jac! It will make you cross
So I'm still looking for ni and the 2nd sn 5/10
jilli -- I do forget the international nature of the log, but at the same time it is amazing how commercials can sometimes be the great link between cultures
no Jac -- won't help! sleep, hot lemonade... sleep... and a warm blankie
jac: how are we supposed to clue evan? I don't speak latin...
brb
Jac -- my hint was not directed at you in the UK or the Aussies.
ubi est ignis?
ahh but smooth you speak nut!
LBD: everything is on fire?
Sorry ni 6/18
nutly is here? where?
where is the fire
LBD -- I've forgotten all those school years of Latin which they don't tech any more.
EGO said , EGO operor non narro latin
ankh - I don't... well, I do at some point... got the weekly grocery shopping to do that I couldn't do earlier in the week, the Xmas shopping to finish and some new lights to buy for the kitchen. Also need a trip to the recycling centre. Can be done over Sat/Sun though.... *toddles off to open a bottle of white wine*. It might do more good than cough mixture!
but then again, it is getting kinda hot in here! lol
anike: ni + spell out the letter before M + vowel
ka5?
speaking of Latin -- I saw a book I just have to get... Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat translated into Latin!!!
pappa: I work on thin Latin?
nice!
By the way, gang, I got unsnowbound this afternoon!
ka 5: plural
I openly admit it, I never could have done it w/o Lickety's List. It guides me thru. See you all on the flip 8)
i o not speak latin... loll i told you. ;)
I have a copy of Winnie Ille Pu
Iwas cr*p at Latin. I could translate Latin into English but wasn't so good going the other way.
gramma, you had the list? YAY gramma!
later gramma
Oh
TY Stid - got that - down to sn 5/10 (2nd)
Good for you, gramma!!! The joy is in the hunt, not the method
Oh, is the list up now? I was listless in more ways than one today! LOL.
1 Must find tomorrow's theme! CUL8R
jilli - I will have to add that to the wish list as well
sn + that letter again, anike
I never took Latin. French, Spanish and Italian. I am very ungrammatical!
later Jill!
Hooh! Reality TV -- check out Babbler's icon!!!
I can do english spanish, some german, italian french, rssian, and a smattering in a few more... but no latin. lol
I took french in 4 and 5th grade, latin in 7-9th grade, german for about an hour, and two years of italian.
reality TV? oh dear, I think I'll stay with my usual icon.
I can read most of what pappa said, but only with difficulty. Ya ruska vari vu tolka pangliski!
omg! that is worse than Ankh's hamsters!
I've found a couple of fun icons for the reality tv thing.
Thanks Stid - Fireworks!! Must go and cut out some sewing before I'm in trouble. Should be allowed to do what I like on my birthday tho'
that is to say, I speak only English (in Russian)
whoo hoo anike
stid -- what language is that?
YAY anike!
happy birthday anike!
So, none of you studied the Welsh language, I guess?
ok, you explained
I have no idea how to really transcribe it...
Thanks - see you soon
give me a book and some time and I can translate most languages ;D I took Spanish in school, though I really wanted to study French -- I have found that I am pretty good at pronouncing words from other languages even if I don't know what I am saying
I know bore da, Jac! and gwyn, and melyn, and glas, LOL
Jac -- Welsh is one that is on the list for me to study at some point when I have time -- or at least Gaelic
no Jac, but I would love to try it. it's such a beautifully melodious language, as is the Irish (gaelic)
ya gavaryu malinky russki. ya idyo na rossija dlya tri mesyatsi na Nizhnii Novgorod
stid - Is that like what Hazel was saying about Ulster Scots?
I haven't listened to the tapes recently, though.
three months in Novgorod? was it cold?
Wolfie - do both if you can, but not at the same time.
From learning bits and pieces of Welsh, I can understand the same words and phrases in Irish and Scots Gaelic once I get used to the mutations.
in nizhni novogord... it was... they were all winter months... oh, and ten days in moscow... in fact, I passed the millenium new year in red squarre. :-D
Wow, I bet THAT was a trip, pappa!
Is that when you took those lovely pics?
Jac -- you taught us a few words which I've forgotten, but here's one from my Welsh uncle -- nadolig llawen (happy Christmas, I think)
Another language, is 'backspeak'. It's a backwards English that wwas spoken by adults in UK in the 40s/50s/60s.
used to be called Gorki in the soviet days... it wasn't too cold though, not compared to wisconsin... but it was intense!
What was that like, Jacula?
jilli - Correct! A Blwyddyn Newydd Da! (And Happy New Year!)
I suppose it's all a matter of perspective, pappa -- though for me 10 F is WAY too cold.
20 to go
hehe... I nearly married a girl form there
go helen!
stid - I can't speak it, though my ex MIL does.
go HK!
I guess, once you work the rules out, like knowing the Welsh alphabet, it is then 'easy'!
go helen go!
Iyay useday otay ebay oodgay atay igpay atinlay
I never did master that one, Jill, but I can figure it out eventually...
reading it is a whole lot harder than hearing it to decypher what's being said
did you just say e-bay, jili? ;)
gogogo helen!
smooth -- long before it existed - lol
hehe
ok
are you all fixed up not chj?
it is ok, chj?
ebay, LOL. Hearing backspeak is easier than reading it, yes.
now
helen -- do you need help? Ask away!
jacula... that was bacwardspeak? we call it pig latin
I gave a linguist friend a manual and CD on pig latin... *drying herself off* There is SOMETHING wrong with this computer, grrrr.
no no, pappa, we call it igpay atinlay!
iyaa, inkthay, atthey allay idskay oknay ipay atinlay
it's all wet ankh
Yeah, Jilli, that's pig latin... were you demonstrating backspeak?
*dutifully dries keyboard*
I think you got a splatter on the monitor, ankh
I think you got a splatter on the monitor, ankh
Sounds the same! I must save jilli's post and get my ex MIL to read it out to me.
*sighs and wipes the monitor down also*
igpay atinlay, otnay ackbay eakspay
Go to Amazon, enter "pigorian chant" -- my buddy the linguist is an RC priest, too, so it was the perfect gift.
lol nice ankh sounds funny!
that would be a hoot to hear ankh!
and there are variations, such as using iggle instead of ay.
*used to speak German, doesn't any more; a few words of Spanish, that's it* Oh, Pappa, he loved it -- he was in Rome at the time -- all his buddies wanted one.
funny, funny! I think I need to head out for a while. Plenty of good cluers in the room. Later all!
later stid
bye stid
Bye, Stiddy... I gotta go too, bb in a few. Gotta dry off the OTHER programs I was running. *sigh*
so long stid
pigorian chant! Would this amuse my newly buddhist son?
Apparently, the origins of 'backspeak' and pig Latin are Yiddish & Romany.
lol see ya ankh
What does not surprise me.
how many left Woulfie?
That, rather.
Holy mackerel! I just thought it was kids fooling around.
Poor helen, trying to get her last few words
58 to go now -- cos I am being quiet
gogogo woulfie!!!
has anyone here ever had any contact with south afrikanners? i spoke with a gnetnlman tonight with an accent I am not familiar ith... I thought maybesouth african
jilli - No, it was serious stuff to stop 'the enemy' hearing what you were talking about.
seth afrikaan? Bleck is bleck, I want my bebe back? That kind of accent?
Smooth, south afrikanners have a mix of british almost aussie accent.
Oh, I just love all the accents of the world.
it sounded like a lot of british, with a little aussie, and a bit more german mixed in... which is why I thought SA
we have several great doctors here from Soputh Africa -- one with a distinctly Brit accent who is multilingual and a couple of others who speak afikaans and English with a Gary Player accent
My auntie had a 'seth afrikaan' accent after a couple of years working there. Like me, she picks accents up somehow.
mix a bit of germanic to it and that's what a south afrikanner sounds like. very crisp cut on word endings
kain
I bet he was... interesting!
Hi sally
:) sally
anyone up for another linguistic trivia question tonight?
ok
Go ahead, smooth...
how many acceptable two letter words are there in the Official Tournament and Club Word List of the National Scrabble Association?
always, pappa
bah
don't care
101
And "gi" and "ok" are not among them, which is a SIN.
close ankh...a bit lower
Nope, 101.
as of 2006, I get a lower number
101.
going to get a reality clue.
what? oh my! I need to recheck... igot 96
AArgh! I hate Scrabble dictionary. It's worse than Enable!
Pappa, log on in the early mornings -- I think Ursh is South African.
yeah, I talk with her, in all the afrikaans I know. lol
Jilli, a newly Buddhist son? Hmmm. Hmmm. I only know one Buddhist joke.
Well, Pappa, maybe you're right. Maybe 101 is the SOWPODS number, and the U.S. number is only 96. But NEITHER of them include "gi" or "ok," which is a sin.
And, as I have asked before, why does my daughter always manage to get 'zebu' on a triple word??
lol nice compromise ankh. ;)
*rolls back chat and laughs at Jacula's most excellent Afrikaaner accent*
tu6?
Because she's YOUR daughter, Jac.
You may be right there, Ankh! Oh, taught her too well!
Jilli, pig latin was a security measure? You know about our Code Talkers in the US / WW II?
tu6 - overgarment + a vowel.
tu7/36 is + 2 vowels (Latin plural).
Woulfie, what you might wear like a shirt + first vowel
thanks -- gave me a threefer there
bonus words woulfie!
and indeed I might, lbd -- though I haven't been to a Ren Fair in several years
clue for na5/12 please?
nahus
FIREWORDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hond - mother-of-pearl
how many sn5/20's are there?
Whoo hoo HK!
Well done, Hell.
harp -2
finally ! whew !
yeah HK!
YAY Helen!
I just tried to post a pic of my daughter's boots she went out in today. Interesting black, pikey, metal laden things. She forgot her socks and so they took chunks out of her heels,she tells me. Only got a black square for the icon though.:(
in that case, could I get a clue for sn5/20? I have the one that's like a contraction for Santa Claus
ty,ty,ty
thanks helen
sn5/20 - door catch (Northern English). sn5/20 - take a bit out of.
change the middle vowel
s+ what holds your head on your body.
s+body part Harp
yay fireworks!!
whoo hoo Hondao
I'm a bit perturbed as to why my daughter's boots aren't showing up on my icon.
wtg hondo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
check the extention of the pic jac. i think it needs to be jpg
Pic's too big, apparently.??
i gotta get SOMETHING done around the house - bb for the flip
cr5/22?
Back with my Reality Show icon, hah
hick dialect for creek
never mind
ankh -- yes I heard about those Code Talkers -- but even before WW2 kids were talking pig latin and it was no secret -- just fun
time to go find my blankies. Night all see you on the morrow.
Help babbler, please - i need the last ha 5/14
ce5?
and also, ankh, newly buddhist son (age 58) is finding so much peace and happiness it's no joke!
ha5/14 -- to raise, elevate, usually preceded by en -- rhymes with tripping the light fantastic
made it to 45 but need to go to bed -- must get enough sleep to help antibiotics do their job -- have fun all and I hope to see you tomorrow
Bless you, Jillibus. for now i can sleep
ce5/12 -- ce + spanish river
Given up re daughter's boots and gone for first of my reality tv icons now.
Hey! Just realised something! I seem to be breathing freely again! Hope this means I can get some hours of cough-free, can't breathe panic free, sleep.
yay jac!!!
sleep happily, gardner!
woulf! have you been sick?
Does anyone have a clever clue for re 6/21?
no hints needed? going to do dishes...
ha6?
re6/21 -- make a new seat for a rattan chair
re6/21 - what the headmaster did to the naughty schoolboy when he transgressed again? Or to refurbish an uncushioned seat.
Sally: To repunish Michael fay. :)
ha6 -- cab driver? ha4/10 + That Is
Who is Michael Fay?
he was punshed in singapore for vandalism
thanks
Wow, those headmasters were tough!
oh, thanks. Did he chew gum?
Brits are tough
yeah, i think so
Michael Fay - yet another afhd kid.
actually no... he egged something and spry painted
ADHD.
afhd? adhd?
Attention Deficit Disorder.
jac -- love your reality tv!
what's the h then?
Or, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
The 'f' one was a mistype.
my bro has adhd...
Oh, and sorry if I sound casual re the rest. I'm not really, I just saw a lot of it in a clinic ove a few years.
modern disorder. Used to be called BB I think.
no need to apologize. I still pick on him for it. ;)
that's what brothers are for. lol
smooth - Sorry to hear that. I'm still not convinced that the blanket term covers all.
ah5?
ah5/14 - a + ship part, harp.
Hey, Jilli, just catching up: the Code Talkers spoke Navajo, but I guess you knew that already. And the Buddhist joke is very gentle:
Vendor: so, you want a tofu dog? What do you want on it? Buddhist: Oh, make me one with everything.
a + hu4/6 ( part of a ship)
it took a long time to dagnose him.. we just thought he was careless, and watched too much tv. lol he still can't drive though... he gets distracted too easially, and can't focus on traffic
thanks jac!
good one, ankh!!! Will pass it to Son!
OK so I can
I can't get to sleep yet
hi gw
Good evening folks. Checking in to do the final 10...
I see helenk is on line - how did the tests go hK?
that's what I have, too, darv
Don't forget the tofu part! :)
jilli -- I have had a sinus infection since Sunday -- I finally got smart and saw a doc yesterday and he gave me an antibiotic which has done wonders for me
hi harp
Hi, Davurs. Haven't seen HelenK chatting, unless you mean Helen Keller, and she left a while ago.
scrolling back I see some fun threads
I guess she didn't log off then. Maybe leaving it ready for the flip Ankh
*Great fun* (not) getting locked up in the back part of a clinic on more than one occasion when a child is going nuts and smashing hell out of the doors and the wired glass, and the staff and anyone else to hand. 'He (it's usually a 'he') has ADHD. It's okay!' the staff tell us. Oh? Right? You think that whatever his problem might be then that he might not just be a bit p*ssed off at being locked up in the looney unit?
my favorite Buddhist anecdote relates to two monks who are walking on a path together -- one is an older monk, the other is one of his newest disciples.
Don't anyone have a go at me for saying that because I am only quoting what the kids in there all said at one point or another, without commenting on my own thoughts.
The branch they follow has very strict rules regarding celibacy, abstinence, diet, etc. To the extent that to even touch a woman requires purification.
lol fortunately it never got that far jac... though i can't imagine being locked in a brain like that
when they come to a river which is swollen with the spring melts from the mountaintops, they encounter a woman who cannot cross and seeks assistance.
The younger monk makes a great show of not acknowledging her in deference to his vows when the older (without a word) picks her up on his shoulders and carries her across
what sort of icon would you all like to see for tomorrow?
Hang on, smooth - am waiting for Wolfie's punchline.
For several miles, the younger monk expresses his shock and dismay, that his mentor would ignore their vows in such an egregious manner, when the older stops him in his tracks by saying...
My son, I stopped carrying her once I put her down on the other side of the river.... Why do you still carry her?
Paul's quite happy to keep on seeing the stocking top, btw.
excellent story gw
A bit long in the delivery for a teaching parable, I know. But I love the message it contains. :)
lol
I'd like to see someone put that concept on a bumpersticker (*ducks*)
so another shot from the burlesque?
you keep using my name jac. lol is that your beloved's as well?
Now I'm hearing that old 'Family' song, Burlesque.
Sure pappa -- I have yet to see a piece of your work I haven't liked
smoth - your name is Paul? If so, yes, that's my Other Half's name. He is paul69 on here. The ladies sometimes misinterpret that as some kind of boast about prowess in a certain field (and I wuld not comment on that!). It's his birth year, as he tells them.
tsk tsk jac
What are you tutting about, gran?
Or rather MUm.
wee, he's got a good name, jac
*well*
new icon... again, from the burlesque troupe
Paul means 'small'. He hates that meaning! He's 6' 2". LOL.
woulf -- glad you got that antibiotic -- last winter I had 5 colds plus bronchitis in a row and finally went for antibiotics which worked like a charm.
lol jac... i'm 5'5" aptly named.
actually my full name means siomething like "though I am small, God is my strength"
good morning all
hey hodag
ho ho hodag!
That happened to me a few years back -- I kept getting ear infections that would return within a day or two of clearing up -- until I finally went to a clinic and got the meds to fix it for good
hey ya Jill
*turns the temp up in the cuzzi as it is getting chilly*
can anyone clue the last ha5/14 for me please
I will say again... antibiotics DO NOT work against any kind of virus. They only work against bacteria.
ha5/14 -- to improve - usually with en before it -- rhymes with trip the light fantastic
true, Jac -- but when they appy they are wonderful
oops -- apply
no comments on the icon? should i change it?
cuzzi?????? ******CANNONBALL********
davurs - if you wanted to make a photo of you look better, you might enha** it using photoshop.
That's not a comment, btw. Just a clue!
jac, that's why I didn't get antibiotics at first -- I'm WELL aware of that -- but finally, there must have been bacteria lurking as well
{{MAMABEAR}}
{{{{{Gee Double You}}}}}}}
thnx jac and jilli - got it!
lovely photo, smoooth
5 left...
let's see..... 164 words in 15 minutes!!!!! GO!!!!!
gogogodavurs!
Aw, jilli, I jut knew you'd have a go at me re that. Cough, cough! No, actually, not coughing now. Apart from the temperature changes twixt hot and cold, I'm breathing quite freely now.
Ribs still hurt from all the coughing though.
sorry, smooth -- I am still getting the old one -- I need to clean my cache it seems
jac, I know what that's like!!! Try just getting over it and having it start again -- 5 times
I had a friend blame it on my having had a flue shot
oh. lol It's from the same shoot... one of my favorites from it... but not one of the girls' favorites
8flu
*flu
brb
I haven't seen anyone for .... ever! How is everybody?
that's better --- not bad, though I would have preferred a different tilt to the head -- A hint of eye would make it better... to my untrained perceptions )
)
{{{Mamabear}}} hi!
{{{{stidmama!!!!!!}}}}} hi to you too!
my keyboard is sticking making it hard to :)
mmammmamammaama....mamma...mama....... .
I thought about that woulf, and I may even hgave one like that... but I like that her eyes are obscured... for some reason it makes me sense mystery
rrennnnnierenrenrenrneieieiei....renni e....rennie...
hi ren!
Hiya Renster :)
hi faerie!
hey faerie!!!!!
hey ya stid!!!!
Hello dear Stid :)
hi faerie!
hi faerie!
how's your mother doing this week? did you get any snow? I am ready for spring already!
I can see that too, smooth -- as with all art, it comes down to personal taste (which is why I can't stand art critics who try to tell me what I should like)
Hi Pappa - just like The Waltons saying goodnight LOL
jillli - your friend may not be wrong about the 'flue shot thing. My neighbour over the road was ill for weeks after her first shot of that. I've not had a shot yet (not old enough). My Mum had one, was ill for weeks, didn't have another.
evening all
who's calling the odds?
my mother had a reaction to her flu shot this year, first time she had trouble with it -- but then, they let her take it when she already had some sort of virus (which is a no-no)
hi Crone!
Could someone clue the 7's for me please, with 30 to find in 5 mins, I would like to get the bigguns -- I have the 8's
stid no snow here and Mom is still doing well. Just windy and chilly right now but suppose to be getting colder
hi Crone! I think we're overdue for 378 words...
hey crone..you want me to call you odd?
lol good call woulf... I cvan't stand that either... ;)
Woulf, the last sp 6 has an alternate ending for a 7
I have noticed that the grid has been trending towards bigger grids on the weekends lately
sitd - normaly, I'd be happy to see 378 words, but, in my present state and with Xmas looming....
aaargh!
there is a latin plural for the tu 6 (which adds a vowel to the tu 5 "shirt")
there is more pu 4/10,
(((Jac)))
what is the theme today? Can't seem to pick it up from the chickens watching tv and the ladies of the nite icons
there is more gorgeous (like a guy) hu 4/10
there is a plural cr 7
I should be going to try to get some sleep now, but I'm hungry. Going to make some toast and then we'll see...
so far so good, stid
hmmmmm I'm guessing 283
and ec 7 is ec + the underskirt for poodle skirts in the 50s... + vowel
faerie... can I ask you something?
sure Pappa
there are actually two cr 7, both plurals
I think that's all of them, woulf
did you just send me a friend request on myspace? in the last day or two?
oh man, it's about to flip...
cr7/48 = needlework; cr7/32 = cr7/48 change the middle consonant; ec7/36= ec+endo***** problems; hu7/52 = more hu4/10;
simpler clue for the ec
Yeah fireworks just before the flip!
I don't know ... I got a request from someone and I accepted and saw them show up on my messenger and wanted to ask and see who it was ... could have been you
YAY davurs!
we got about 7" in eight hours with hi-winds.Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas(singing)lalala
wow hodag!
lol i'll talk to you after the flip faerie
but I don't have your IM address or email sooooo not sure if it's you or not lol
