Suffering from a cold brought on by the unreasonably warm weather, Hugs -- as is the rest of the family

ok..and what's all this "flip'??
ohhhh, ewwwww, now THAT just sounds gross!
fo7
hya chix ie! i prefer ratbuns

flip is when the grid changes, which it does every 24 hours
if i counted right, er5/10 is in the grid 25 times
+ O

wow. refer is not on the grid
cute icon, nan! Did you make it?
lol marpocky!
nan - that's a great icon!!! bravo!!
what does the 10 letter start with?
ty -- yes I did make part of it
probably e or r
dunno, chancellor
Shalom Everyone -- lots of r's and e's today
nan - very, very clever :)
omg, there's a 10? i saw 9 greyed out so i didnt notice!
hi arb
hiya arb!
well, i just ruled out rerrrreeee as the 10
no need to thank me
make note of the -ier ending...
if there are not at least 3 rs and 3 es in the 10 I will be suprised
ack!
LOL marpocky
thanks kier -- that gave me ro7
sl8
and ch8/50 and sl8/40 (for the -ier)
alright. nice talking, and thanks for the help, all. goodnight!
phantom -- cheroot
hi all!

hi Vollwy!
hi jil; sorry about no answer last night; got bumped
GMTA, ramix
hi Grey
nm volley!
still looking for ch8...
which ch8?
me too -- looking for any 8!
lol phantom: lichen
hi vedaman
think flint fragments, more so.
phantom heretic, too
got the sl8 - doesn't use the cons. I expected
hi vedaman
ch8x2
Erma Bombeck wrote a book with ch8 in the title.
sl 8 if not said already
Hello, all. What do we know about the ten so far?
what do they mean that cheerios isn't a word? i'm eathing them right now
ch8x2
hey jilli!
i don'nt know squat about the 10.
does anyone have more than 4 8s?
only 3 8's here so far, vedaman
cherrier ought to be a word
i have 3 8's
cherrier is close to 2 of the 8 words... need to change one consonant for each
ha...thanks marpocky
I have ch8x2, fe8, sl8.
yep, the chs i have. thanks though
You are kidding me. I have not found a ch word yet and now you tell me there are two that have eight letters in them.
Evening all - is this a competition to see how many e and r tiles you can fit in a grid? LOL
got the fe8. thanks veda
or8
yes but if you use cherrier you ony need to chnge a consonant for each one.
I found the fruit. Thank you.
phantom - fertilize
LORD I HAVE TO PEE
any clue on the sl 8?
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeooooooooooooooooo rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
merk - more icy roads?
sorry had to let that out : )
What I said to - but not so eloquently
more dreadful weather
bet that felt good TO
yes id did, deb!
:-)
dipp -- we're having dreadful weather here
fe 10/91
I'm still looking for the second ch 8. My internet connection is sooooo bad ... due to a cable break off Taiwan, I hear.
ok is that 10 iron-related?
I want a word ending in 'izles'. Is that possible?
AHHHH. What sweet relief =)
has anyone used Z in a word?
er8
well, it sounds like it is iron related, but it is not really
it is actually something you find in churches (well, really old churches I would think)
does the 10 start with F? I missed that if anyone said it
yes, it starts with F
what does it rhyme with? LOL
drB, see my icon :D
cryptic clue: it sounds like transporting lots of British loyalists across a river
aha! thanks DRB!
yay - ty drb!
got it. thanks! that's a fun word
sigh. that helped me now
thank you, Dr B!
i mean it helped me NOT
and I was wrong, it does not have 3es and 3rs (1 short on the rs)
I'm with you kierlex - these clues are leaving me clueless :)
chic - cool icon!
it is a receptical for holding the relics of a saint if that helps, which I can't believe it would
got it! : )
Yayyy -- Seb just came home!!!
It doesn't
tx, helen.!
and the only letters on the border are the first and the last ones
gw, where was he?
buckled under & gave him the car keys already ? ! ? !
Thanks DrB - good cryptic
what's the diagnosis, coulf?
He was at the ER being checked out due to not keeping his food down today, TO
yw
It turns out it was just a bout of gastroenteritis
oh poor little guy..
hope he starts feeling better grey
poor little guy -- did they give you something to soothe his tum?
ooooh, glad he's okay
ooh, I grayed a letter!
But the Dr expressed to Kirsten his gratitude that we were so attentive to Seb and his needs that we brought him in BEFORE he became dehydrated
thank you DrB -- took me a while, but your various clues shoved me along
well that is good news GreyWoulf... glad it's nothing serious. my son had an intestinal blockage last year. what a mess =)
anything I can do to help
I think I have SOMEof the 10 but can't figure out the last bit
DR -- your second clue about the receptacle helped....I googled it and found the word!
jili think lands
there are many roads that lead to the fe 10/91
perhaps in the northwest...
dumb question... how do you google a definition?
jilli -- they really didn't have anything they could give him, but they did give us some pedialyte -- but at least we have confirmed that there was nothing more serious going on
just type in the definition and see what comes up
ty vm didn't know I could do that!!!
I type sentneces from student papers to see if they are plagarizing and google works great for that (but not in a good way)
yipppeee learned something new & found the word ty dr!
I have 5 8's ch X2, fe, or, sl. Does anyone have another?
I use that trick as well, DrB. Caught some last term, too.
dr. b what do you teach?
Classical Greek & Roman Mythology and Introduction to Popular Culture
oh for godsakes i can't even find it with google. boooo hooo
and good god - if a sentenc is used it's not plagiarizing if you cite the source is it?
not if you site the source
but students like to cut and paste things without attribution
actually kier, dr b told us all the word while you weere on potty break
cite and site?
bummer..
the history of popular culture in the 20th century was my first college class - 300 seat auditorium, packed & he started off with a cartoon of the 3 little pigs from the 1930's!!!
i am beginning a paper and it's on my mind
X D kier
i thought - wow if this is college, this is cool!! LOL
when in doubt, give a citation!! =)
how many words today?
my students do not have to use additional sources so when things come up that are not in the readings I know to go loking
148
ah.........
X D??
ty
140 (misstroked)
oh, splendid
laughing hard kier
but it really was one of the best classes i ever took, he had everything so professional timed, great audio/video stuff - which was a feat way back then
ahhh... sorry. i am bit out of it tnite. as usual!
sounds cool, helen...
to - yep, fond memories, i think everyone in the entire school took that course - i've seen that prof (macdonald) on pbs shows here too
the 10 is a compound word (i.e., it breaks into two other words in the grid)
ok - off to bed with 59 for tomorrow. happy babbling everyone!
still can't find the reliquary in google
good nite TO
night temple
ok what does the 2nd compound word of the 10 word staqrt with?
i got to 101 with alot of monkeying
going to bed too
Bye TO
wow helen, that's amazing
good nite everyone :)
helen love the icon. when my dad was here over christmas, he watched that show marathon!
Bye Helen
good night helen
nite helen...
night helen
TO -- look at flosey's icon
giving up on the 10 -- all I can think of for the clue is reliquary
g'night to those that are leaving
i am so confused about this dang 10!! what is a british loyalist???
no flosey - not at all amazing - there are word racers out there that can find that many words in a grid this size in under 2 minutes (well, on easier grids than this one)
yes, helen, but they are freaks.
a person on tangleword with a super high rating said the other night that they type 130 words per minute
I'm assuming it is a United Empire Loyalist, but that isn't getting me anywhere!
British loyalist during the American Revolution or a conservative Brit today
LOL kier - yes, i agree, total freaks!
finally got the 10
forget the Brit loyalist - that's questionable - go for the reliquary and pluralise
who was it helen?
yes, that's what I thought, DrB -- not what nan said because hers is a Canadian term
Or Conservative (capital C) in Canada
As in Sir John A
i don't remember, i don't pay that much attention, but their ranking was in the high 3000's
I'm not sure how universal the term is today in terms of usage, and I immediate thought of boats going back and forth across the Charles River during the Revolution (but that is just me)
BBL falling asleep
There were the Whigs and the **********
why mitch? was it you? :)
oh i will pay for this - fell asleep in front of tv now not sleepy
no, i don't type 130 wpm
lol
i don't type period, that's why i'll never get over 2000, hah
LOL, Temple -- I do the same -- will fall asleep at the keyboard or on the couch, then when I decide to move to the bed, the act of moving wakes me up!
Is the beginning of the 10 the kind of thing we ride on fro get from Vancouver to Vancouver Island?
lol, haven't played in a while - should go show mr 130wpm how to play :P
phantom - rhetoric
yes, jilli, but without a double cons
Yes jilli minus one R then add Sir John A plural
yes but i have big project and need to go in early to have it on boss's desk
well, more accurately sorta, not yes
AGHGHGHGH
This grid sucks
havent played this in ages
i'll give you a cyber dollar if you email me the answer
and i forgot the link hah
boy am I being dense -- hae tried so many combos for the 10 but no luck so far -- understood the clue but can't make it work!
does the 10 end with 's'
yeS
yes, kier
ah -- finally! Trouble is, I'm a good speller
good, because I was not going to go to bed until you did
Kier and jilli fe+**+conservatives
not that you'd know it from the typos I produce
awww, DrB! And did you look at my icon?
Yes, GMTA
I'm definitely having hostile feeelings about this grid!
GMTA?
AGHGHGHG I FINALLY GOT IT AGHGHGHGHGHGHG
great minds...
WAY TO GO KIERLEX!!!!!!!!!
wtg, kier!!!

Thanks jilli - never would have monkeytyped that one! What does it mean?

yw
ch 8/50 - George Washington cut down a ch tree; the ch is the multiple fruit of the tree
I don't have the fe8 (hint)...

did someone say there is an er 8?
fe: sounds like a small particle of iron
yep
babrab -- it's the other ch8/50 which is an unword
yes dee...and an or8
iron ores
i think it is just a 'comparison form' of the ch5/14 (a type of rock), like pearlier
ch 8 8/50 -- extends the ch 5/14 to the comperative suffix
fe 8: starts like the boat and ends with **** of passage
ta nan

morning all
good morning everybody and morning sprite
hello auntie. have been trying to find a bus!
good morning michelle:) the buses are those big vehicles which you pay when you get on lol
ohhhh.blimey! that wasn't what i got on to the other day!
lol oh no dont want to think what you got on rofl
a bus usually is something that starts from a place where you are not, goes to a place where you don't want to go and at times that are not convenient for you.
rofl love the description sprite that is so true
:)
this grid is not kind is it lol or is it because Ive been unwell for a couple of days and only got up today lol
morning all
is the grid as bad as it first appears with all the vowels in it ?
morning gary and julie:)
can't say yet, just started. But with all those Es and Rs it is probably not easy!
feel
should of waited and read jeans post
hanks jean
sooooo sorry :(
hi gary. Are you feeling a bit better now, jean?
I just cant concentrate really, am not feeling that special sprite been laid up with a chest infection
that's not a nice thing, jean. Hope you can take it easy for a while.
yes im lucky im not back to work until saturday so hopefully the antibiotics will have kicked in by then!
take care of yourself !
I will thanks sprite, at least I can get my teenager to cook and look after me pay back time rofl
that is a great teenager you have there, lol.
danni can cook????
hmmmmm???????????
she was brilliant yesterday bless her, cooked tea, etc yes lazaro68 your cousin can cook lol
lol
Morning all
Good morning from me as well.
morning :)
and from me !!
It irritates me that irritates is a phantom.
it irritates me that there are just so many e's and r's
Ferret is my phantom today
yeah, that too.
and no ostrich.
hi everybody!
hey Fran
Hello FranMag!
wow, what a strange grid.
hi sprite!
Hi fran
hi spanner!
can there really be 140 words?
spanner, is that a new puppy?
hard to imagine
For an awful moment when I first looked at the grid, I thought it said 640 words. Even 140 seems unlikely!
hi all, what does the 10 start with please
Hi Fran
hi haz!
hi karys!
Thats puddin, when he was a baby. Thes 18 months now... and a little imp
omg they are sooooo sweet!
both such pretty dogs!
Big dogs now. I had them weighed at the vets last week. Blue is 6 stone of pure muscle and pudding is 5 stone!
probably still just as sweet though!
yay i got an 8
sorry oggy, not ignoring you, just started and don't have the list so i don't know what the 10 starts with.
faints with shock lol
You could say that They spent the christmas holidays with one of the weating a santa hat and one wearing reindeer horns that my daughter bought for them....
woo hoo gary and julie!
did they like that? wtg gary!
wow, they actually left them on spanner?
hi, everyone
hi all
hi kanga!
hi kanga and oboe
They loved the attention it got them I think....
hi kanga cute icon
hi oboe
i'm hoping a good dinner will help me with the last 40 words.
Hi kanga
thanks garyandjulie'
that is a good thing to know, kanga, that there actually are a 100 words in this grid!
kanga - you mean you found a 100 words. With this grid thats impressive.....
some of them are a little esoteric
and i had a lot of help
and 'some' and 'a little' are used to not discourage us, I think?
if i got them... oops off to kiss the kids goodnight
Well I have to go..the ancient one calls, best of luck with the grid folks
i'm a bit stuck
bye spanner!
bye spanner
Bye spanner.
good luck spanner - still hosting the pita :(
got to go folks bbl
bye jules
off to dinner
yeah, found another 8 at last.
enjoy, oboe
Yup...thats the last time i invite someone for the weekend...LOL
bye julie
is she any better behaving towards you now, spanner?
The new tablets have helped to be honest...at least shes stopped spitting at me LOL
good grief!
LOL spanner!
argh! LOL, sounds like a big improvement!
It is, and I have now had her diagnosed properly, so at least i know what im dealing with
I think you have the most loving heart to take care of her anyway. It is not easy.
I agree with sprite.
No sprite not at all. I am a martyr and my lovely hubby buys me yummy pressies for being one. LOL
that is good! He should appreciate what you are doing every minute :D
He has to I give him little choice
good!
I have also called a family meeting for 28 Jan in a conference room at a hotel, so that we can sort out long term care as I think that i am being dumped on a bit...the others never even visit anymore
good for you spanner.
that is such common behaviour. As soon as someone starts taking care, all the rest of the family sighs relieved and goes on with their own lives. That meeting is very good thinking.
Mind you at the last meeting I was told to 'mind my own business' LOl Hubby now says I am no longer an inlaw. I am an outlaw!!!
LOL
Well really must fly. see you all soon I hope bye
bye spanner, will think of you
bye!
bye spanner
yeah, another 8. Found Er8, Fe8 and Or8 so far.
go sprite! i'm currently stuck on a he 7
thanks sprite
oh wow, ch8 too. No he7 yet here, sorry.
Got it now. It is the ch8 without the c, kanga.
he7 sounds like plural prince of england
thanks for the ch8 sprite!
There's another ch8 - looks like a layer of well preserved partner of Sonny
thx sprite. got that one, still going on an earlier one
found the fe8 now.
funny clue haz! thanks, got it!
thanks Haz, got it :)
You're welcome!
Got another he7. Ending is of a person doing something.
Hi all. Sprite, the other 8 is an sl8
thinking... thinking...
thank you Yoink
hi Yoink, thanks :)
Good morning, Yoink.
hi yoink! hi karys!
yay, got it, thanks yoink!
My words seem to have ground to a halt
hello to everyone I have missed, and thank you to all for clues, now I have to go again and 'do something', back later x
later karys!
Bye Karys.
bye Kary
*Karys
Hello all only staying briefly this morning - any clues for the fe 10
oh lordy. *smacks head* got the he7 finally, missed your clue fran.
Kazzer - if you have fe4/7 (homonym for being afraid, add the conservative party members)
Kazzer, it's a compound word made up of a f4 and a t6
thanks haz and yoink!
thanx anyone know what it means?
thanks haz and yoink!
receptacles for holding the ashes of a saint apparently
If you click on the ? beside the word it gives a definition - though not always.
or the part of a church they're kept in...
thats what I love about babble you learn something new everyday and a day you learn somethinf new is a good day
if the ? does not give a def, www.infoplease.com is a nice site.
We're going to learn some new words with this grid, that's for sure.
thanks sprite
Phantom: heron
I've managed to find 89 since 915 this morning - the grid is quite nice for experimenting in edgy english
I'm on 89 too Kazzer, maybe that's the real total
just drop a letter, Yoink
no, someone had 100 already.
Yeah, got that one thanks Sprite
thanx sprite
and I have scraped through to 114 now... hard going though
wtg kanga!
morning all, hows the grid?
solid
hi kate!
morning kate, too many Es and Rs.
Hi everyone.
hi angb!
hey Angb
Hi fran
My revised total is 91. There are 91 words. Hi kth and Angb
hey yoink
I trust kanga. There are 114 words.
I have 112 but some are not words, they are collections of letters.
... 119 ... (running out of puff)
i can personally vouch for 102 so far.
I find it amazing that there are 140 words here!
go kanga!
of course something is wrong when you get to 98 and just then find tr4/4
hi spellit!
thanks for the encouragement fran!
Just updated my icon. Odd wee grid isn't it. Back into it then
Hi all - I have been concentrating hard here
cool angb!
Thought you might like the similarities - Maui and all that Fran
Hi spellit
you know i don't know that whole legend, something i should look up soon though.
does anyone have the E from the left, I can't make it work
hi spellit
all i know is he's called "hawaiian superman"
and wow I just noticed that there's a 10 in there, not sure I believe it though lol
kate: anything E4 I can help you with?
Hi Sprite, Fran and all
Not in NZ ... do you have a Maui legend too?
ty sprite
yes, Maui is a hawaiian legend, a strongman apparently
The 10 is OK if you know your church history
another phantom: heretic
I know nothing about church history lol not really my thing
angb, just looked it up, something about him lassoing the sun and making it go slower across the sky.
kate, i love alice cooper, we listen to his radio show
now there is a guy I could learn to love! He is making days longer?
Gee these Maui's can harness the cosmos - pulling up islands and lassooing the sun
fran I didn't know he had a radio show, I have all his music though
it's gotta be the same Maui
it's a cool show kate, i think they have a website, haven't looked it up yet though.
I thought Alice Cooper would have passed on to the big music hall in the sky by now
no he's still making records and touring angb
LOL how did he survive?
apparently angb, the legends of maui are part of the evidence that the Maoris indeed came from Polynesia.
Kate, he's on Planet Rock over here. You can get it on digital or online probably
angb, i think it's because he golfs
oh cool I'll look it up then
I think my auntie has played golf with him, she also used to live next door to him, although their houses were miles away from each other lol
you know, left the rock star lifestyle for a more sedate existence, golfing, radio show, a few concerts here and there.
Off for coffee - see you later
Probably enough about Maui but one last question. Where do the "scientists" say Hawaiian Polynesians come from ... there is some hint now about China down here
i always thought it was around where malaysia is angb.
later spellit!
So he doesn't fall out of coconut trees like Keith Richards then ... a real headline in NZ last April
lol, i heard it was actually the stump of a tree that he was dancing on.
help with first re6 please
Hmmm was in hospital upwards of a week. Mind you what state would his brain be in?
oggy, touch again?
To have sensation again
sorry, don't know about first
not sure if that's the first though
got it
thnx haz\
what's scary is he's going to be captain jack's father in the next pirates of the caribbean and he barely needs any makeup.
You're welcome!
Haha ... that's good. Wonder if he
he'll remember his lines.
morning oggy
that's a good question angb.
Morning all, tricky little grid today!

Howdy, sprite. Congrats!
hi babrab!
thanks :)
hi babble
Howdy, Fran
also O + nervous habit.
hi bab.rab. way to go sprite!!
Sprite's babble rule # 12: always try all vowel words you find with all other vowels in the grid.
How goes it, hodog? Over the sniffles?
thanks sprite
now the only tile with no words is the right hand R
i thought that was rule #5 sprite?
yes ty.
#5 is: if you think you see a word but you don't see how you can make it work, just type it in.
clue for the or/8, please?
kate, i think those are the ones that have to do with what's under trees.
which righthand R, kate, there are 3 :)
oh yes sprite, i use that one ALL the time.
My only rule, when in doubt, mumble
thanks fran got them
that's another great rule babrab! lol
now that is a rule that can put you through everything in life, BabbleRabble :D
larli have to go but will phone on sunday, enjoy your hols.
yw kate
OK no one is going to clue the or 8 are they ... What do you Americans call someone who is a pain in the butt? Take out the third letter and replace with another of the second letter and plural it (so the ending changes) Longest clue I have ever written
*waiting for or8 clue for sugar*
by have a nice day
See ya larlie
tx angb, will work on it...........
I really would have preferred a better cluer to have done that clue guys

ch8/50 - plural fruit
ch8/50 - surgically enhanced partner of Sonny combines with a cake layer
thanks haz
er8/65 - third person present tense form of er7/48 to make something er6/21
fe8/65 - plural fe7/40 - relating to iron
or8/40 - will need time to ponder how to clue it....
sl8/40 - worsening weather of the snow variety
ty, still working on the fe and or but got the others
oh got the fe as well
The or is a plural word for an apparatus that plots the motions of planets, etc.
is the partner of Sonny clue the same as the pl fruit or are there 2 ch 8s
Good morning Babblers. It appears that Dr God got a special deal on E's and R's.
or, plus the french infinitive for 'to laugh', but switch the vowels around, then give the plural ending to a word whose singular ending y
There are two ch8 words.
ok, I dont understand the cake layer bit
It's also a word used for seating when arranged on a slope.
thanks haz got them all now
I'm impressed that you got the or word!
got the or word, still no second ch, must be dense
the long er has me stumped
If you've got the first part, rearrange the letters of the word that can to fatigue, or what goes on car wheels.
Eva - it uses the highest scoring tile.
hmmmm
GOTTIT!!!
Well done Levia!
ok, now the 10....please
got it! But what did that have to do with building something?
you are a great cluer haz
or was I combining clues?
thankis Haz!!
fe10 - a combination word. Use the fe4/7 that looks and sounds like a word for being afraid, but spelt differently and to it add British conservative party members. Or the end of a plural vi word meaning triumphs.
I'm not sure,Eva, but glad you've got there!
great clue Haz, got it immediately
That's good Levia.
I don't have a single O word yet! hi all...
Good morning Grace.
thanks again Haz
hi grace
hi grace
this grid is a bit dizzying
It seems like I have double vision when I look at the grid.
*fireworks*
good for you!
Congratulations, riemann!
yay rieman

te7/28 - the second one is the plural of the material used for towelling
Yahoooo riemann

And the 1st te7 = more nerdy.
Morning all.

60 to go bbl!
Good morning Jacula!
hi jac
Hi jacula
Good morning, Haz. I picked some excellent 8 word clues off you, and the 10, as I typed in my words found on paper.:)
*meant 8-letter word clues.
thx haz and jac
y/w Andree.
Good to know, Jacula!
last one en6/24 please
en6 - to make more wealthy
Hello Scrabbler. It's rather an 'eee arrr' grid today!
got it
and FIREWORKS
My eyes don't like the grid.
Yahooo Andree
Well done Andree!
Well done, Andree!
Scrabbler - the knack is to take a deep breath and steady your focus.
I am trying to stare at the T in the middle.
that last word was fun, soon as I asked for clue it jumped up and bit me. lol
Advice that could be given to those attempting to walk while under the influence.... (deep breath, steady focus)
not as hard as it looks scrabbler once you get started
its the large grids that intimidate me
I have 44---I didn't get some of those clues about fe words and iron, but I will ponder them throughout the day. I have to go now and get an early start for the drive in. We have lots and lots of snow!!
Talk about not being able to see the wood for the :-)
bye scrabbler
Drive carefully scrabbler.
take care scrabbler
Bye folks!
can't tell you how many times I typed in trench, my phantom for the day
bye scrabbler
I start every day with the word etna just in case :-)
bye all, I am off to bed, happy babbling
Bye Andree - sleep well.
LOL, katie W.
'Bye, Andree. Babble-free dreams!
'Bye Scrabbler.
(Just catching up on the greetings; I was away on 'phone.)
oh yey i'm half way through
shame I'm stuck now lol
hello again, back for a clue for fe8/55, please
fe8/55 - plural of fe7/40 relating to iron. The word ends ceremonially.
tx haz, will ponder!
haz, i'm being really thick could you please clue fe 7/40 :-)
I've got 2 x fe7/40.
got it, tx haz!
Now I know I'm being really thick, I have actually got both of them, sorry :-)
fe7/40 can either be plural of the Mersy crosser, or fe, consonant, then a word that sounds like the opposite of wrong, but which means a ceremony
Mersey*
No problem, Katie!
I was thinking of Bryan from Roxy Music but now I'm hearing that Gerry & The Pacemakers song. AARGH! It'll stick in my head all day!
Sorry!
Did the Liverpudlians sing it under the scaffolding?
Haz - I can see you grinning from here.
Haz - LOL. Amazingly, no.
morning, all! (or afternoon, etc)
Yes.....
Morning, Gwen.
Jacula - that would have been the straw that broke the camel's back!
can someone clue the 1st ci5/12, please - I have a mental block!!!!
Good morning Book Docto.
Doctor - what is happening with my fingers??
ci5/12 - ends in a vowel and has a double helping of a consonant in the middle
I've made a model of you, Haz., and I'm sticking pins into the fingers. LOL.
That explains it!
Yup!
Ok the clue I was given early is think cherry in a new zealand accent :-)
tx haz, monkeys are slipping!
An alternative would be, badly spelt Knight, then the beginning of the paddy field produce.
katie - you gave me a ch6/24 with that clue. Thanks.
Actually that's the wrong word that is for the ch 6/24 sorry, but it is quite similar
I really do need to get more sleep ;-)
lol katie, good one!
could I have a clue for the or 8/40 please
so sorry, i don't have asmall furry animule for an icon
Gwen - Theme is 'fishing', as far as I know. That's what my cat's doing.
Katie - I clued it earlier, but used french - do you know french infinitive 'to laugh'?
HAZ, can you clue the or 8 without french please
good morning all
good morning 6a
An alternative or8 clue - or, repeat the consonant. Then two letter initials of American medical drama. Finish with the plural ending of a word ending in y.
got HAZ, thanks
Hello 6a & Eva & Merp.
Great!
hi Jac
... and Buttonman.
hi eva - isn't this the strangest grid
Hi Jacula
rrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeealy strange!
Thanks Haz, I was off doing a little work but can play again now :-)
at first I couldn't see anything at all. Now I'm stuck with 58 left.
it feeeeeeeeeeeeee**ls reeeeeee**lly eeeee**erie to meeeee tooooooo
My phantom word today is ch***** (cigar).
65 to go and I've got stuff to do so I'm taking a break, i may be back later
You're welcome Katie - time for the canine to accompany me on a walk. Have a good day all.
HAZ, i looked up the meaning of the or 8 and I would never have figured it out if you had not clued it.
40 left here, Eva. 10 more mins and then I'm taking a break, too.
'Bye Haz. Don't get too muddy (either of you)!
hi all
bye HAZ
giving it another 5 minutes and then stove, fed Merp, strap on Yak trax and take walk. Not muddy here this morning, but icy and seasonably cold(at last!)
hi mousey
Hello mousey.
hi all, wow, isn't this some grid !
cute icon jacula
Eva - are Yak trax snow shoes?
a lot of es = fs
Mousey - I bet you wouln't say that if the cat was reaching into a mouse hole.:)
Hi flosey.
neat stretchy rubber things you put over the bottom of your shoes, that have coiled wires on them, which bite into the snow and ice. I'm quite nervous abotu falling, but with these I feel completely confident.
*wouldn't
Hi Jacula
Eva - Oh, I have some of those but they're caled 'shoe chains' over here.
*called
I think Haz has reciprocated re the 'voodoo' doll - I can't type now! LOL
the yak traks are a new variety, much lighter and you can even walk on floors without tearing them up
Is anyone else having problems getting Lickety's List tonight?
that sounds like a great idea Eva - I'm nervous walking on ice and snow now - wonder if they have them in Canada?
can't rmemeber whether they're yak trax or traks
Eva - I'll look out for those. Mind you, it's been some years since we've had and substantial snow and ice here.
Merk - don't know. Not using a list ... yet.
jac i could just fart and smell the flowers
Flosey-I bet you they do, or that you can order them. You should be able to google them easily.
okay, down to 54, time to get a life. See you all later
I'll try that, not much ice here on west coast but have sons in Toronto to visit and they have lots of ice and snow
ack, it says reich is not in the flippin' dictionary1
Mousey - thank you. I was just looking for 'f' words. Different middle vowel but it gave me 3 words.
bye eva
called 'yak traks" ?
Gwen - I tried that, too.
'Bye, Eva.
can anyone clue the 1st he 7/32, please?
not that far yet, sorry
I have 5 8's....ch,er,fe,or, and sl...what am i missing?

sugar - I only have one, so far, and that rhymes with the river crossers (fe7/40) or the towelling baby pants.
who's doing that mousey?
flosey - probably me re the 'f' words. LOL

ummm both?
feetories
that didnt work for me either gramma
fe + the preposition meaning to do again + you might tell or read your child a st*** before bed , only make that last word plural
you need to start with the correct fe4 - try French brother without the first "r"
brb.. java..
I'm going to run down to the feetorie and get something new
i prefer the feelorie
fe10 is a combination of a fe4 and a to5
TY
good morning all, ty lynxx
oohhh I like feelories
tx lynx did'nt have the right fe4/7 to start with
there are several fe4 words
the only fe5/16 I have so far is greek cheese - a + either/** (conjunction). If that helps
lol gramma!! I tried that too!
check out peri's clue about the french brother...it worked for me
morning, Wolvie
glad it worked gramma
fe5.16 that I have is just plural of the fe4.7
I have the plural parties fe 5/16
So many Es and Rs and yet "terrier" is not here. Nor "terrorize"
the fourth fe 4/7
ty, inge2; that helped!
f + "able was I *** I saw Elba"
but, inge2: try the pl of a bath robe fabric
yw, Aloy. glad to give a little payback for all your clues over time
yes, have that Aloy, tx
found a decade...
h'mmm
Inge2, Give it back. I lost a decade.
fo6 please
heh, I need it gramma! :-)
plural of fo5/16, strength
IT"S MINE!!
have that one thanks Inge2, there's another before it
Mine for one more year!
Oh ok. I'll share if you will.
:)
flosey, I think I found it...it's the British spelling fo the fe5/16 I clued earlier.
mornin babblers!
morning evan
afternoon, all!!!!!!!!!
hi evan, movieman
hi peeps.
Hi movieman
not getting tht British spelling Inge2
tried the e in middle, didn't work
flosey - enemy plus the same ending
fo + little alien (2 letters) + either/** (conjunction)
Wolvie's clue is better
TY
not really. :-)
finally, got it, thanks all
Wolvie, Inge2,
yw
how can there possibly be a 10-letter word in this mess of Es and Rs?!
off to the showers. Have fun all!
by inge!
I tell ya, I can't see the forest through the eeeeees
bye, inge2
right gramma
bye Inge2, later

Hey Ypsi
flosey, it's nice that you make so few mistakes that you can recount the actual time of them. I've made a lifetime of them.
lol gramma, me too, but this was just within last hour or so
I try to forget all the others
back!
wow, you guys werent very chatty while i was gone...hehe
You all probably knew this but I'll mention it anyway in case there is someone out there as thick as me. Did you know that at the top of lickety's clues, there's a box where you can enter your words and they magically appear in the proper order? It has helped me a lot.
lo, I left to make coffee
my last c word - first ci 5/12 - after the one that sounds like 'to father'
yes gramma - it helps a lot
oh gramma i cant live without it
I need that one too Wolvie
wolvie -- im guessing you have the Ci's meaning "to quote a passage..."
I never knew. What a great little surprise.
looks the pl of a type of cloud
a latin pl, that is
yes evan, thanks tho
chim chiminey, chim chiminey, chim chim ....
as in the big fluffly clouds aloy? I have been trying variants of that - must be the wrong ones
that's it, wolvi... double cons in middle, ending with a vowel

yipes, so many words to look for now! hehe got the sexy ones -- glad to see that Z getting used!

good morning stid
oops that's a 7. sorry
snow? have to check, still dark out there
a light covering stid, maybe an inch
not bad then. I have to drive to the other side of the city for a doc's appointment. I am not looking forward to it.
can't manage the bathrobe fabric - tho am sitting here in it!!
just found the last 8, it's an or8 meaning: an apparatus for representing the positions, motions, and phases of the planets, satellites, etc., in the solar system.
I don't drive here when there's snow on the ground - the roads here are too up and down and winding, etc
flosey mans nick name for terence pluraled
true -- and that's what is making me consider cancelling. Several hills in between here and there, but nothing like the ones on the island.
where do you live flosey?
Saltspring Island gadget

just found the last 8, it's an or8 meaning: an apparatus for representing the positions, motions, and phases of the planets, satellites, etc., in the solar system.

ty marpocky, got there!
er8, another ch8
ch8, or8
i mean or8, not er8
is the or related to any of the other or's?
I don't think so ..
plllt
is it like, easy, or do i need a clue?
hurshy do you have the he 7/32? If so remove first consonant and one of the doubles, or+
the or is not a common word i think. but it rhymes with one of the ch8s!
sorta
Everyone, I've got good news
ok this is a lot of information, which will prove helpful if i can sort it out.
what kate?
i have an he7/32, is there just one?
can i just mention i hate re's////thank you for listening
I've been accepted for the money, we've got the loan, I'll have the cash in 2 weeks time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No theres 3 that I've found hurshy
I can go to Canada before my birthday!!!!
No hurshy there are 3, use the lst one.

I'm so excited, I've been jumping for about an hour non stop lol
ok, i had the right one, so i got the or8

Very slow on last 9. Any clues for the oo word?
oo5 is like ee5
ty hurshy
ch8 goes on sundaes
that's the one i've got
When is your birthday Kate?
the other one is more ch5/14-y
ch8 = more full of "a compact rock consisting essentially of microcrystalline quartz."
Button, 3rd fo 6/27 = strengths
HELLO, AGAIN, need clues for the 2nd and 3rd fo 6/27...i have the one concerning age PLEASE
feb 18th wren
Kate, just picked up the good news. Great!!! See you in Toronto!!!
button the age one is a fo7
Great news, Kate. Early Happy Birthday and many blessings on you and the children! *Hugs*
Better start packing then Kate
i still don't have the 3rd he7. i have 2 that differ by a letter
right MARPOCKY, but it is the first two i need
thank you folks :)
marpocky, which letter is it that you have to change?
button, you need enemy + our friend with the red icon
my 2 he7s differ in the 3rd position
and do you like the plan? yes, i'm all *** **! (double the cons)
I need that one too, thanks
ah, thanks marpocky
thanks marpoch=ky, FiREWORKS
inge, what's the OTHER he7...
ch 8 less first letter
no, have that one.
he7 - pl of king with 6 wives
have that one.
have that one too lol
Anagram of the Yorkshire vet ..
i found it!
it's like a person who gets a dead person's money, minus the in at the start.
Well, you clued the other, I thought: one who gets stuff in a will, less in-
he 7; female possessive + m0n**** lizzard , for anyone besides Hursh who needs it
i did not clue it until just now :)
4 to go!
Oh, I guess I should actually read the log when I get here, instead of just catching a glimpse! :)
finally! thanks. 6 left that all start with r
i have all the r's marpocky!
want to trade?
that would be excellent
strikes me that there are too many E's and R's and O's
i need 1 C, 1 F, 1 H, and 1 S. two of these are 5's and two are sixes.
i have one r7 left, i have the ones for someone who quits, giving it another go, and more like the bottom of a tree
experiences an emotion again
the s6 is a se6/24 which sounds german
ok, got it. thanks. i need to make a new policy of trying re-everything
se + me in german + vowel
thanks marpocky, i got it
to7/28 pls?
te7/28, robe materials - there is no to7
sorry...ro7/28
hurshy what's your other 6?
once you have that combo, marpocky, remove one of those double vowels for another combo
i dunno! i'm not using the list.
ro7 more like the bottom parts of a tree
Help with fe 6/33 pls?
oh right! i guess you wouldn't know which is the 6 unless you had it :) duh
thx..didnt think i could get there
that's it! fe6/33 is my other six
like an obsession but with c instead of s
there you go
i thought of trying it before but fell victim to the classic "that's not a word" syndrome...
i remember getting that one. i tried it just for the heck of it
hello babblers
ok, so this leaves C5 and H5
and i have R5 and R6
h5 is an extention of an h4
did you see that clue i put down there a bit
one who does it
yep i got that combo
got it, thanks
ok how about your shoelaces again?
yep
hmmm, then not a combo
lease again
first ci 5/12?
there are 2 ri6/24... change last letter
not cumulus clouds but ci5/12
so explain this--inferior is a word, but ferior is not.
(that's a latin plural)
because in- isn't a prefix on that word
ok hursh how many ch5s do you have? i have 5
haha i know
i needs one o' them
got it!
it aint accepting oreo. what a stupid puxxle
you should have one that's not in combo. change the last letter
afternoon babblers! just popping in for a few minutes before my meeting...
terior too in or ex but not just plain- I'll take the oreo
ok i don't have the lease again, i think
room to ***
don't fret
re + allow
mine was a rhyming clue
that was it. one left, it's a 6
you have both ri6?
if so maybe ripped again
yep.
that was it! fireworks. thanks hurshy and others who helped
Hursh, are you still missing a ch 5? do you have the two htat relate to the sound made by grasshoppers?
no, i'm done inge, but thanks
what is a combo?
a combo is words that go together, like a singular and plural
Still cant get fe 6/33. 5 left.
ok thx
or a verb and the person doing it
and why are there a few boxes with the same letter in tile stats
What did the outlet say to the cord?
because we have more than one of the same letter in the grid
jacc -- they correspond to the tiles in the grid.
fe + wealthy
ahh
Socket to me, baby!
and only the first letter of the words correct?
hehe!
BR -- that was a groaner! hehe
yeah, it tells you how many start in that tile.
you'll only have those for 2 weeks, though, unless you go pro
ty
hurshy -- they get a 2-week trial now? great marketing on Dr Gods part, but i wish id had 2 free weeks of stats! hehe
are there any words that shart with the "z"?
none that start with the Z, but i have 2 that use it.
nooooooo horse girl
really???? care to hint them?????
they are a "sexy" ER 7-8 combo
i dont got er 7 or 8
slez
woops
horse girl, first find the er 6, meaning sexy, then buuld on them
Last fe 5/16 pls?
fe + first three letters of a bablers name in SanDiego
***gone
fe 5/16 - a tornado is a s***m
fe5/16 - alt spelling of fo6/27
ty everyone
BabbleRabble your clue actually gives it away
hey, vicuna -- you havent been around for a while, have you?
and yours doesn't?
ci 5/33?
Oh yeah, I'm around, eva. Maybe we haven't been overlapping.
sorry ci 5/12 I should have said.
well, I didnt type the actual three letters in my clue
BabbleR, she means "a ---nado is a s---m"
maybe thats it Vic -- or maybe ive just been oblivious, too...hehe
ci5/12 - Latin pl of a kind of high cloud
oh and now I am too stupid to know what she means too
lets calm down guys. people just have different methods of playing the game...
If you think so, Babble! ;)
he BabbleRabble I didn
t mean to offend.
LOL I didn't even see that ***nado - but thanks BabbleR

Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh hhh!
(But the icon is a bit scary).
Wooooooohooo Kate
I've been dancing and screaming for ages
anyone know why terrier is not working?
sorry bunny lol I love alice
You can't make the letters connect.
Because you can't make it in the grid
jac - the letters do nor connect
I do too, was just expecting Mr. Urban in his tight jeans!!
rotic
I thought it was time for a change
leave off the "o" or add a vowel at the beginning
"I did not do that."---a quote from klaurel
TY bunny
LOL
"I meant leave off the "r"... coffee deprivation.
I already had the ot4
I read that the er 6 builds into a 7 & 8, but I haven't found them yet.
NM
er 7/48 pls
e's &r's
ch7,48?
LOL Kirichka
er7.48 use the first5 letters of e6.21 then add high score letter and vowel
dspike, er 8 - e + word for decay + my pants **** ( anagram that word) is a five, leave off the s for the 7
ty everyone
TY BV

or6/21?
Weird or normal?
bit weird
or + a grain
Hi everyone, just baked "One Bowl Chocolate Bars" which look like brownies. Just as I was pouring the batter into the baking dish I realized I had not lightly oiled the dish. Hope I can get them out to taste them. They smell good.
Thanks, cherie .. weird indeed ..
??grain??
I have one 8 to go. A clue for the sl 8,40?
icier, strider
sl8/40 - more frozen rain than before
I don't like the ch words, only hae 3 of them.
I'm sure they will come out Peri. I forgot about my eggs that were boiling and they went boom a few minutes ago. It happens.
E's are greyed out!
am I totally blind or can I not see the ROs?
earlier clue said that ch7 is a fruit, but can't find it
thks for sl 8 - I just couldn't make it work at first.
klaurel, think what is under plants in the ground
Plural of a read long stemmed fruit used on cheescake.
no, peri...ch 8 is a fruit
read = red
<SLAP HEAD>
peri, think plural fruit
have the ch8 that is fruit
klaurel, don't hurt yourself :)
We're ro4ing for you, kl ..
one of the CH 8's is a fruit, actually. the CH 7 is a CH 5 with a suffix
need help with ch7/48 please
:) thanks, peri
ch 7,48 - more of the head of the tribe
What about the non-fruit ch 8?
thanks Strider
bunny, it builds off of the ch5/14 do you have that
he7's??
bunny - even more of the 5 rock thing
TY, kept trying with the fruit's ending.
he7's: men like baseball player aaron...
person who gets dead relative's money, minus in-
...and take the c off the fruit.
I would be so much better at this game if I could actually spell.
hey peri - when i forget to grease the pan like that, what i do is sort of tip the pan and scrape all the batter in to one half, grease the other half. then tip it the other way and repeat. it's better than nothing.
TY, hursh! I got all 3!
evening everybody - how are you all and how is the grid today?
the grid is stoooooopid
BV--misspelling is how we FIND words!
Grids decent, so I am.
It sucks on toast ..
hurshy, I'll remember that for next time. I put a serving knife around the edges and it looks like they will come out all right. Still too warm to cut though. I am drooling here.
I still need help with that or + a grain
True, but it carries over into real life because I type in the same mis-spelt words every day.
the grain is an r4
or + *** - a - roni
OK, I was not thinking of ri4 as a grain
clue please for the fe10
se6?
fe4 + to6
gotta get the to6, lol
help with the TEs?
You tell your kid bedtime s******
se6... she sells s***** by the s****ore, but spell it utterly weirdly
found an he7/32 anyone want a clue
a person who works with computers, and more so
a bunch of monkeyable four's and fives
bathrobe materials
and extreme fear
TY hursh--Hooked on Phonics!
oh i forgot the ells...

And or8?
scrabbler - think weird but use oo0 instead
TY for oo5
OUCH! Thanks Hursh!
I was sooo looking in teh wrong section!
et voila, pyrotechnics
scrabbler, think of fakings of signatures, remove F and change G
Yahoooo klaurel
re5, 16 is to disprove. or change the middle consonant in the word that means to drive or force back
okay, time to get my son for his doc appointment!
TY hursh! 30 to go!
ttyl
go for it, scrabbler
I am at work, but done working, but I don't volunteer at the cancer hospital for 1 hr, so I am doing Babble
Stooopid ch's--4 to find
Scrab, you know the head of the Indian tribe one? Change the last letter, plural.

Found 1 ch5,14 ch***practor
i just monkeyed that too scrabbler!
chier
oops
need last ch5/14 pleae
Done with the C's!
Peri, like the ch 5/14 before it with a different last letter.
Peri - use the one before double the cons & lose the vowel
thanks lynxx and bunny
I've got 3 left, and they're all Fs. Evil, evil, Fs, especially that FE 10! Argh!
fe10=fe4 + to6
I have 11 F's to find
thx scrabbler
feer
half way there then
"I did not do that."--a quote attributed to klaurel
first ci5/12 please
scrabbler, you might say it was, uh, ironic, how many FEs there are.
ci + double consonant + vowel
I know that there are iron-suffix words, but I just don't know them, and my SCrabble dictionary is home
I mean iron word as prefix
well, start like the weaselly pet we all wish was in the grid
thanks Scrabbler
and one's a 6 and one's a 7.
ending sounds like opp of day...
TY BV---8 F's to go
bye everyone
BYe lynxxx
i'msure i've tried sll the combos i have for the fe10 but i just can't get it. could someone give another clue please?

Fireworks!!

fe6/33 - sexual obsession, change the s
Yay joy
Yahooooo Inge2. Ausgezeichnet!
thank you Strider that was the one.
Awesome clue Vic, TY!!
22 left bbl
thanks...it's back to work for me, alas. see yall at flip!
Bye Peri
Bitte schoen
bye joy
Gotta go.
How bout the fe 6/30?
Bye Strider
Bye strider. Nice dog photo
Thks. He's a nice dog, too.
fe6/30 - having to do with iron
that's another iron word, bunny, with adj ending. Trade you for or8
19 to go and I am leaving the office--boss (Richard Head) came in to hassle me/criticize a perfectly reasonable decision----I better leave before I make him undergo a surgical procedure
*****growling******
see ya scrabbler
Those pups are SO cute, Inge2
or 8 = o + double cons + World Cup s*****
Tx scrabbler. As for your boss, a nose-otomy perhaps.
Wrong part of his anatomy. LOL
I'm a nice girl, lol
bunny...I'm thinking soccer, but that's not right.
I am nice too, ---some bad thoughts, but good decisions
That S word is like a TV s*****, or parts of a book.
tx bunny, got it now.
OK, 2 fo's to go, then I will leave----second fo6,27 and fo7,40, please
fo6/27 please, the 1st one?
and how bout those first two he7s?
Ist fo 6/27 is just like the fe 5/16 above it.
fo6/27 - alt spelling of fe5/16 fo7/40, the ages between 39 and 50
I found fo7--duh---I need the second fo6,27
fo7 the roaring fo*****
whoops, I need the 2nd fo6/27, not the 1st
1st fo6/27 = enemy + "me"
2nd fo 6/27 - like the weasle pet
TY BV--that was it. 14 left for tonight--I will delay fireworks!
I meant SOUNDS like the weasel pet
Tx again, bunny, helped me too.
bye. scrabbler, good luck w/ the boss
Bye Scrab
to quote torgone, the 1st two he7s: weird or normal?
well if this isn't the "Old MacDonald" grid of all time - E I E I O! E I E I, OY VEY! is more like it.
Uhm, bit of both? One is plural of a man's name, the other sounds like someone who comes into money with the in at the beginning.
I meant without the "in" at the beginning.
got the one who comes into money, tx!
hi, BV
Howdy!
And just to clear up the man's name confusion, the THIRD he7/32 is also alt. spell of a man's name plural. The one at the top is the plural king with many wives.
The mans name is also a candy bar brand, O' He**y
tx, ch, that helped alot; done. Just in time for meetings. :) Thank you bunny and all.
Bye Inge
Congrats Inge2!
ch1212, wouldn't the third he 7 be spelt with an a if it were a man's name, like Mr. Potter? Or can it be spelt with an e too?
it's the first he7 that's a man's name
Well, that's why I said 'alt. spelling' because I've seen it both ways, but I'm used to the A one, like Prince and Mr. P
oh, you've seen it with an e? wow
never heard of that
Prince being the young redheaded cutie currently in line on the other side of the pond
OK, just wondering :)
Done, after that te 6/7 combo, I never remember that one.
Hurrah for bunny!! Whee!!!
which combo bunny?
First two te's, nickname for a computer te**nician (te 6/24), comparative for the te 7/36
thx bunny and well done
I'm gonna go shovel a path through the girl's room, see ya'll tomorrow (if this wind doesn't blow the house away). Bye
bye bunny - stay warm
sigh. we finally got a dusting of snow this morning, but it's pretty much gone already :(
Not snow, IN hte girl's room, toys, clothes and who know's what else?!
no, i know bunny, twas unrelated :)
pretty much half way thru but my eyes are going funny - good night all
We're still waiting in New England. My husband and I have decided that people here have been hiding the truth -- they give stock video footage of horrible winters to the networks just to keep people from moving here ... it's really quite balmy :D
he 7/32 pls - i have the kings
What stse ar you in Hursh? I'm in Texas, news said we might get a little snow this weekend, but it's so sunny right now.
Bye Denny
stse = state
dspike you will want the second he7/32 -- think of the person who gets someone's estate when they die... now take off the "in"
ty ch1212
oh, i'm in new england with ch1212 :)
ch - this is a very atypical winter, honest.
Hmmm, guess we aren't in the same weather pattern huh? See ya'll tomorrow.
are you? For some reason I had you in Texas. Mmmm.... and SURE it's a typical winter :) Nah, we're sticking with the conspiracy theory :D
i've lived in new england all my life... and i'm kind of scared of texas...
Can't blame you there :). Gosh, I'm truly surprised. I really had you placed mentally in Texas, in a small town near the Mexican border. Now I'm laughing!
hmm, i wonder what gave you that idea?
Tell me you at least teach math... or is that wrong too?
yes, well, i tutor - taught two classes last year, then went back to tutoring cause i didn't like the classroom discipline aspect of things
but math, yes
Hurshy...what is scary about texas??? I am thinking of moving there in 08.
oh good, at least I recalled one thing correctly. Sometimes our various life details get mixed up when we're all chatting away. I no doubt have you confused with another smart, savy Babbler who does live in Texas. Now I'm off to start dinner early -- bye all - happy hunting!
i can't say... i'll offend people
okay...sorry. I am generally so matter of fact that I usually offend people and don't recognize it till someone tells me.
me too!
great...comrades in mouth.
:)
Hi all. Can someone clue the or8? It's my last 8 and it seems to be eluding me
se 6/24 pls
mkl, think of fake signatures and remove F and change G
My daughter is moving to texas this year and is planning on being hapai perhaps later this year. i was thinking of being grammies there and helping out. Hi mkl.
she sells s*****lls by the s****ore, spelt very very wrong
hapai... is pregnant?
yes. pregnant...coming from germany after 6 year stint there. I am excited.
Thanks. Don't feel so bad now. I never would have found that on my own
is she in the military?
tough clue hursh but i got it - thx
She and her hubby are. He was awarded a silver star for his bravery recently. it was hard for her to hear the happenings and i was shocked. he was in Iraq
it's a hard word to clue :)
wow. well at least he made it out alive...
COP, come on to TX, hardly anyone rides horses down the streets anymore and nearly everyone has indoor plumbing!
Oh and Hurshy. Before we settled in Alaska we literally travelled all around the country. Stayed about three months in each place. The only state we weren't in was Michigan. People are just about the same everywhere you go. Not politically, but in the way they live
Yes, he did. I am grateful.
Also, if you're ever in another part of the country and feel homesick go to Wal-Mart. They're the same everywhere. :-)
well... but... texas is so... BIG
It's less than half the size of Alaska
i'm used to states that are only a few hours long at most.
Gotta be, gotta have room for all that love!
I understand the misconceptions from people, but I love horses, just can't ride them : ]
Yep. It took a little getting used to in New England. I was raised out west.
For sure about Walmart we have at least three here, and the outer islands are still waiting
i would certainly not mind horses. but i do think that there are sort of regional differences - we new englanders are more... reserved. and since i'm used to that, i kind of like it that way.
ch7 please?
more ch5/20
Let me know when you get here COP and if the timing is right, I'll get you tickets to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo!
What sort of reservations do New Englanders have?
Oh Hursh, life is too short!
Reserved is a nice way to put it. My brother-in-law is from just outside of Boston. He's definately***reserved
we're less friendly and open, it takes longer to build friendships
Don't have that ch5 yet either
and yet here you are!
Here we have that, but for the most part people are friendly and will even invite you in just because.
nm just found it. Thanks
sometimes when i interact with people who are not so reserved, i feel that they are being rude, but it's really just a cultural difference
well, i think everyone is less inhibited on the internet
I think true friendship takes time to build anywhere.
yes, i'm sure that's true
hi everyone!
Yep. The internet is like being in a car. You can give people the bird and drive off
hey fran
I have traveled for 20 years and met many people all over the world. I have yet to get to the east coast though, so I am not familiar with much of that area.
:-)
hi all
Hi tea, Hi Fran
I liked New England. As a group they are a little hard to get used to. Individually, I met a LOT of nice people
i just love new england, it's... i don't know... in my blood somehow. i'm descended from roger williams, the founder of rhode island, on my mom's side AND my dad's
hi hursh! hi COP! hi mkl! hi TnC!

or west indian food?
or more like the thinvg beneath the trees?
er 6/21 - madonna had an album called er****a
the er 7 and 8 build off the 1st 4 letters of the er 6/21
thanks swmbo but what about the other one I thought it would be aplural
ty swmbo, can't belive I hadn't gotten that one yet
what is french for roast - see mind is quickly going
Wurdy, I am not sure which of the other r's begin at that spot

French for roast -- disintegrate + first person singular
same as west indian food... ro + men sometimes wear neck**es
ok thanks though

fireworks
I get goosebumps just thinking about carlos' voice and urs...oh urs
congrats jilli
cool jilli!
I tell these silly children that my "popra" s better than their emo music any day of the week
After a concert all the women come out walking funny. my hubby says theyve melted sexually I know its cause theyve just melted all over LOL
I must admit to some similar passions
hello all! hi swmbo! long time no see!
YAY Jill! :-)
swmbo - you into il divo also?
Which is why my adult children are fans of opera
Hi Stidmama!!!
You know wurdy I have a thing about michael buble. My girls used to laugh, but I took them to see him and thryve got it too
Hi stid! Did you lose power? Did the storm hit you bigly?
I like michael
back from silly phone call......hi Stid and YAY JILLI! (am not enjoying this grid so much)
Sorry about the spelling I am a hopeless typer - and slow
wurdy: peripherally. I love all classical/opera
thanks all
WTG jilli I salute you
my little boy is 8 and now he sings everything like opera
*blushes*
we did not lose power. school was out for the children, but I resent it because they could have safely gone with a two-hour delay. roads were quite easy this afternoon (had to run some errands) but I think tomorrow they will be very bad with ice.
hi Dorens.
brb to clue if needed
well, 49 to go, but I must go make myself an evening meal. TTFN!
I just found out that Simon Cowell from
wb dorens, hi stid
later swmbo!
American Idol put the group together
bye!
bye swmbo
Jilli i asked hubby if he could see any words in this grid and he asked if the lyrics to the 7 dwarves were allowed....eieio
today it was actually cold here on the east coast... a bit of ice outside on the roads.
spanner... did he see what tigger had to say? RRRRRRRRR
wow Dorens! hope it doesn't hurt the trees...
actually cold here today in Florida...brrrrrrrrrr
lol spanner! But that's Old Macdonald had a farm...
poor gramma! did you have to wear a sweater? (no sympathy...)
I never said he was bright...LOL
spanner, put that hubby away. That's Old MacDonald. The 7 dwarves were hi ho hi ho it's off to work we go
lol yes, sweatsuit ( :
hi stid!
must gop fill the bird feeder while I can -- getting dark and colder...
I put new suet in at noon, will scatter more birdseed tomorrow morning (in case it snows any more).
hey cliff! how's the kitty-sitting going?
gramma cute new picture of elenor
no fosters at the moment - just my own crew keeping me busy :)
ty spanner
*grin* that's okay, I bet it's nice to have only "known" challenges for a bit!
i'm trying to fatten up my newest little guy, "peanut", because at 3 1/2 months he is still only 2 1/2 pounds.
wurdy when are they next touring by you?
wow. sounds like a tiny one! was he a "runt" or just undernourished? our Lucky (see my icon) was only about 55 lbs when we got him at a year and a half. Took months to get his weight where it was supposed to be.
not any time soon....but i got my neighbor hooked and she looked up tickets and said they were 750 for good seats
gramma how old is eleanor?
Ithink that is a bit excessive but she is obsessed. Like I am not lol
hi everybody
hi Ping!
hi ping
hhi Ping.. speaking of cute pictures
TThey are not cheap, but I dont buy expensive seats. i buy cheaper ones...you still get to listen to the same concert and experience the same atmosphere...
thanks dorens
stid, he was the runt (of 7)-vet said he might always be small. your "Lucky" is handsome!
hi ping
my in-laws once got us tickets to hear Pavarotti when he was in Portland... more than 12 years ago. It was luscious singing.
lots of repetition in this here grid, yes?
hi ping
same hear but you get to go sit with them at the end of the concert during the last song. and get your pic taken with them. I would just DIE
WOW stid, that must have been something else..
they let you touch them
hi stid, wurdy, spanner, gramma, and dorens!
DOnt go wurdy...we dont want you to die...LOL
it was really beautiful. If only the tone-deaf woman sitting next to us hadn't insisted on singing along... (we did eventually convince her to stop)
I would stuff my fat butt into Urs's pocket and go home with him
Look wurdy get the cheap seats and console yourself with the knowledge that at the end of the concert they are sweaty and damp and possibly a little smelly...
you are so not making it sound bad
lol
foflol wurdy
Too much information
cliff, I am so proud of Lucky. After being so badly mistreated he is doing beautifully. Now that his self esteem is improved, I am more able to work on actual behavior things because he doesn't fear the word "no" any more.
a "little" smelly, spanner? have you ever performed under those lights? *holding nose just from memory*
I feel like my kids when they discovered the wiggles
I was being kind...dont want to shatter all wurdys illusions
man, I am NEVER going to finish this grid. The conversations are too interesting!
re6&7, the last two please?
But as you insist....wurdy at the end of a concert those boys must STINK...LOL
i am never going to finish and am not actually reading the conversations, stid. maybe I should!
LOL
I live with my husband the man who works in a factory and has "earned" the name king of stink....sweaty hot guys...hmmmm no brainer...my nose is immune
at least you'd accomplish something, Dorens! :-)
just holler if you want some clues
that's what i''m thinking stid.... but i'm down to 34 and never say die
Yes but they sweat..your lips will slip off...LOL
hey gang
i can touch them with my lips?????
*patiently waiting for the RE's gramma needs...*
hi chj
oh lord ( :
gramma, do you have the people who stop working at age 65?
hi chj
If you are lucky bab
hi chj--long time no see!!!!!!!!!!
te 6? -- have fear
stidmama, I think your baby, Lucky is beautiful. I always had a shephard, but I quit the breed a few years ago after the best ever passed.
well look who finally made it to shore! hiya chj! *hands a cool daiquiri*
hey spanner....terri
hi chj
hi ping....how's the weather in houston?

AHHHHHHHHHH

later stid... think i will be forever before i finish these last 23
bye cliff
nite cliff.
bye cliff, lol chj
hi to stid gmere!
lol chj so not menudo
after all i like andrea bocelli even though he doesnt have the v oice to be a top opera singer
from where im standing there is. he was a dreadful actor, but then again he had great timing
I am off to find the re's...fishing
do you chj? i didn't think you would. (not that I don't)
their voices give me goosebumps that is all i need
fishing with a rod and re4?
cary grant? horrible actor? but such style, spanner...such lovely style
off a re4?
I love andrea because he is soooorelaxed on stage. It doesnt seem an effort
har har har chj ( :
cary grant I must confess, i totally love him
sorry but cary grant was a great actor
i love cary grant too
him and gene kelly
There is a difference between style and proficiency though dorens, dont you think?
i had a crush on him before i was old enough to have a crush.
i have a crush on him but the unreal young perpetually reserved him
i dunno, spanner.. i was always so blinded by the style. he is not lawrence olivier, but just so damned charming and handsome too
He was lovely looking...but I am a ty Power or gregory peck girl myself. Ty for looks Greg for ability
he was awesome in bringing up baby
Hi everyone
hey peri
howdy,peri!
ollag are you playing
oh well, gregory peck. and he was also handsome too (to my eyes)... to kill a mockingbird... knocked me out!
hi peri
Excellent comic timing
for what he sings he's great...he's just not suited for grand opera where he has to project his voice without amplification
i agree, dorens - gregory peck yes
ok really must go...have to check out the pres coverage so far and prep for the interuption of my nightly brain rotting
Good evening folks. I am back to finish---12 to go. All R's--I wanted to save the best for last.
One of my all time favourite films. The way that man ran his hand through his hair *goosebumps*
i agree.... and he has brought a lot of people to appreciate operatic style who wouldn't have otherwise... hi scrabbs
Hi scrabb, later wurdy

I love him singing com te partiro it makes my hair stand on end
Andrea not greg peck LOL

i just keep seeing the fear one over and over and over again
oh dear...looks like rain *said in eeyore voice*
Fran I have just found a to 4/4 I didn't have LOL
gwen, it looks like a guy who's into computers, but it means irritable. (and more irritable)
lol angb!
helen - the same radiators - have you seen them?
Gwen - te6 is a computer nerd. te7 is more so.
Temple Owl - I asked you if you were talking about the radiators out of new orleans? (when you were talking about reviewing)
ah, TY TO and jacula, mesa has firewoiks
and Ty FRan, sorry!
this chat is going so fast I'm going to leave for a bit and do stuff I've neglected -- see you soon
whoo hoo Gwen!

bye jilli
fireworks... this was a rrrrrrrrrrrotten grid
Well done, Dorens!
COngrats Dorens!
the chat is moving so fast that i feel like 10 people are talking in my head at the same time (and i usually only have 5 voices). going to go do laundry.
whoo hooo dorens, and yes it was!
yay dorens! *offers a steaming towel and a drink*
yay dorens!
yay dorens
'Bye, Fran.
Bye fran
yes it is bedlam tonight - love it! bey fran
yes, i need that thanks TO... bye fran
later Fran...uhm weren't you doing laundry last night?
Poor Dr_God! There's no pleasing folks. If chat's too slow we complain... if it's too fast... LOL
Since I despise re's with a passion, I better do them while I'm semi alert. :(
just looked u0p def. of that fe10 -- seems to me they are saying that saints are really ferrets LOL
lbd, laundry doesn't ever end over here!
bye!!
i have to deal with things neglected thanks to babble... but will clue for a bit, if needed
Gwen - I thought the same myself!
yes - they put on a good show - not particularily my kinda music - a little to 'hard rocky' for me, even though they are not a that kind of band - i mostly saw them so many times cause my sister used to live in NO & knew someone in that band - so whenever i'd visit, we would see them, but again, i don't remember who that was - they have been around a really, really long time - & that's always a good sign :)
happy fluff and folding Fran
i'll let yooou know how they were
reviews are fine but what i really like is discovering new acts
i guess i should go and eat sumthin afore i pass out -- see y'all tomorrow (yawn)
'Night, Gwen.
night Gwen
nght gwen
nite gwen
night gwen. and night everyone else.
yes TO, remember to let me know, i'd be interested to hear - again, like i said they used to have this newsletter with lots of 'insider' stuff about the band & people they knew & about the NO music scene in general -
good nite gwen
night Dorens
night, dorens!
bye dorens
nut, are you still here?
clue please? for the second he7?
TO -- do you know jazz pianist Michael Kaeshammer? (Isn't that a perfect name for a piano player?)
TO, like the person who gets all the stuff from a will. but drop the in
ty jili, dawg. se6/24 please?
I don't have a list, but one of my he 7 rhymes with the plural fruit. I need the other he 7, too.
TO my post was not a babbleclue!
heritor
lol jili - sorry! no i have not heard him jili. where is he from?
merk: hanks
sorry i disappeared for a bit there. computer started acting really funky. i'm going to go run my virus and spybot programs again, and call it quits on the grid tonight.
re's done except for the re 7/28. What am I missing?
from here, TO, but performs in NY and all over
hi guys
hey smo, i was just heading out
no i will look for him, jili. do you like his work?
ello aunt feather
sorry to hear that, feather - see you tomorrow.
I still need 48 words and I have no list. My computer in China will not open Lickety's website. Any clue as to where I can get a list?
nice pic aunt feather
re 7 someone who re 6/18s. Have you that one Lori?
se6.24 se+ 3rd vowel + *** Guevera
thanks! one of my recent favorites
merk: babblers anonymous link below
se6/24 is a wave caused by seismic disturbance. Spelled like Hitler's 3rd Re*** with a vowel at the end.
ty dawg!
k, night.
and jacs
night
night feather
y/w, TO. I'd gone off looking for a video clip of Fanny & Johnny Craddock (TV cooks from 60s/70s). I'd watched a drama about them earlier.
hi smo
ang, I have 'em all but the re 7/28, so the re 6/18 before it?
Yes
hi
any hints for a new player
oooh will you suggest to babbler favorite chef's icon day? what do you think all?
lori, re7.28, one who doesn't have to work anymore
Lori - I don't have the list so hope I am not putting you crook
the second fo 6/27 please
retiree
re6/18 you're looking for, Lori, is what you do when you either stop working life or go to bed. re7 = the one who does that.
Ack! Sorry
Hmm - correct. Now try the grid box.:)
Try a consonant at end Lori
go fo* ** or why we have gophers double the middle letters
Gawd. I mean the last 7/28. (I'm blond, okay?)
2nd fo6/27 is a computer program.
drop one of those e's Lori and add a consonant
Yes, please clue the final re 7 and I also don't have any idea where the 10 word is. I could use the first two letters and a clue for it.
TO - the chef theme sounds good.
lori, last re7.28 is do it agains
mer, fe. clues earlier as carrying a lot of conservatives across the river
merk, fe10
I am new too, jmsmo93. Perhaps you might want to start by looking at the Help at the top of the page; then go to the bottom and and look at angelsong's cite; from there to lickity's babbleclues. Welcome and good luck!
Merk - the 10 word is fe10/91 and is the place where saints' remains are stored.
actually a reliquary i think
TO - That's the usual word for it, yes.
Okay, I'm now in full blond mode. The last re 7 is going right over my head... :(
Thnx lbd
Last re7/28 = to attempt again.
attempt to do it again lori
Have you a tr 5/10 Lori - re it
Me, too, Lori, so don't feel bad.
yw angb
Lori - 'blond'? You're male then? Sorry, I thought you were female.
How do I find a list at Babblers Anonymous. I did not find it there.
it helps if you have the fe4.7 which means a companion or spouse
Merk - it's in general section.
fe = storing remains of saints. Is there any other clue about that one?
Holy cow! I got it. Betetr late than never. (note to self, purchade hair dye, STAT!) Thank ye all.
try google
fe10 = fe4/7 (sounds like you're scared) + Maggie Thatcher's people.
Merk, try finding the fe4.7 first, it means companion or spouse, it looks like a french spelling of brother.
*purchase
Lori - are you a lady or a man?
most are
fe4.7 + to6.8 =fe10
Jacula, I'm a chick. Hardly ever been called a lady.... :)
is there a third choice?
more tea...brb, anyone want a cuppa?
A cuppa' joe would be nice! Thanks. :)
Oh, okay Lori. I only asked because you said 'blond' (the male for fair). Females are 'blonde'. Oh, Now I sound like I'm trying to be a clever clogs.:((
hey dawg - hear tonight that putting milk into tea dilutes the antioxidant qualities
Yes please, lbd - so long as it's PG Tips.
Jacula, the Canadian/American thing?
TO - Earl Grey with lemon is good.
Or [erhaps it's a Dan Quayle moment.... :)
*perhaps
Lori - Erm, wouldn't know about that. I was just talking about correct spellings.:(
i am so bored with this grid : /
laundry under control, one load dry, another load hung up and one more load in the washer...it doesn't end!
LOL Jacula
is there some way we can make it more exciting for you TO? perhaps acting out the clues? :-)
oooooohh ii'd like THAT - could you?
jac, i was not aware that the two spellings were gender related, now i've learned one more new thing today.
I'll sure try TO!
Perhaps an interpretative dance would liven up the cluing for TO? :)
You with us Jillibus ?
Fran - Like I keep saying, Babble educates the mind! LOL
Hi, All....
Acting out the clues sounds fun. What a pity we can appear on video on here.
diem, she took a break earlier, not sure if she's back yet
G'd evening Pam
hi pam!!
Hi again, pam.
Mean't *can't appear on video. LOL.
thanks, lor and jac... daire i start?
Tks Fran
... or maybe not.
you're just in time for interpretive dance and acting out of the babble clues.
ok, i started... keep seeing szechuan
ok - interpret.......or5/10 - 6/18!
lol, fran
lol, fran
And where did that apostrophe come from? I swear they just insert themselves sometimes.
The first two fo 6/27's please?
hi pam
TO!
or5/10 & plural 6/18 - Squawk, squawk... I'm flying over the ocean.
okay, i'm acting like i'm at a place of work, but changing the double consonants to a different double consonant
*hold nose*
fo6/27 is "enemy" + "small hill"
*marches to and fro like budkingam palace guard, holding nose, to indicate british spelling*
No, I'm not - I'm full of glass and I'm sticking out of the front of your house. You can look through me.
okay, back with a cuppa joe for Lori, and tea for all other takers...i have japanese green tea, earl grey, gun powder, and jasmine blossom
how's that, fran?
hi, lbd
Hi Pam!
or6/21 is spelled like a place you go to work, but change double Fs to a different consonant
Thanks for the caffeine hit lb. Thank ye Fran for the 1st fo 6.
TO - I can assure you that none of the guards at Buckingham Palace ever march about holding their noses. LOL.
2nd fo6/27, can i borrow $10? i'm good fo* **, now double the R.
thanks lbd!
all fluff and folded Fran?
jacs - i was clueing fo6/27!
Thank ye Fran! 2 new words for me.

TO - I know you were.;)
hey ping!

Hi Ping. You drew the short straw then?

hi pam
i'm in Cranbrook, diem
hi kalea
Don't know if I'll be doing Friday's grid; going to a funeral early on and it may stretch throughout the day. Ex-hubby's grandad, my grandad-in-law. He was 92 and a feisty old boy. (The grandad that is, not the 'ex'! )
ping, is that cutie in your icon yours?
The first he 7 please?
hi, kalea
Lori, pl of mr Fonda
hiya pam
sorry to hear about the funeral jac. 92 and fiesty is a good way to be remembered
Lori - 1st he7 = plural English kings, one of whom had 6 wives.
hiya ping
sorry, jac...
lbd - Thanks.
Lori, like the ch8 drop the c
we'll miss you on Friday jac, but it's nice that you remember your former father-in-law in a good way.
..and Pam. Well, he had 'a good innings' as they say.
oops sorry Lori, that's the last he7 i clued
Thank ye all. More personal growth moments... :)
Fran - Grandad-in-law! My former father-in-law is still with us, I'm pleased to say.
brb
oops, my mistake.
i take it you got along with the former father-in-law also.
Fran - I did, and still do.;)

7 f words to go
ibeg your pardon jacs - i am perfectly sober lol
but g'night
my son is watching Cars for the second time today! and probably 30th time since we got it for him.
Several f words are going through my mind right about now.... :) Go TO go!
LOL, TO. I thought you were going to start profaning for a moment.
Fran - I LOVE that film! I want to do the Route 66 thing, since I saw it.
my daughter wants Cars - we got her a tee shirt instead - she's into Land Before Time lately
*waves to nut* maybe tomorrow
Yes, I know most of Route 66 doesn't exist now.
me too jac!
does anyone remember the old tv show Route 66?
Ping - I think we have talked about Land Before Time Before? My kids watched the originals and you're are now on about part 15?
I do ping
ping, not really
Cars is a great movie. My kids love it, and so do I.
second fo6/27 clue, please?
i love all the pixar movies
after this last visit with my grandson, i just as soon not see cars for another decade or so! lol
yes, jac, i think you did tell me - was there only one when they were kids?
TO, can i borrow $10 bucks? i'm good fo* ** (now double the R)
The or 8 please?
Ping - very first series and maybe 2nd, my son has just told me. Back in the mid 80s.
thanks, fran
sounds like female reproduction Lori
or8 = apparatus in a planetarium. Sounds like houses of horror.
lbd - your clue and mine put together are frighteningly true! Also, hilarious.
Lori, begins the double consonant series of or words
female reproduction...houses of horror
lori, tricky one, or* that you mine, double the R, then add french f****
yup, sounds about right Ping! lol
and Jac! oh dear, slow server tonight

Totally blank on the or 8 clues. (apologies in advance)

Congrats TO!
hi metal!
wtg TO!
yw ping
hi metal
great ML, how about you?
I'm fine thanks, Metal. I must be one of the few who thought the grid was fun, too.
doin' fine Meta. and yourself?
i liked it jac, a real brain stretcher and new words too.
doing well. a bit chilly here tonight, but nothing like further north.
i have to go! : ( see you all tomoroow - or friday - depends on how big the grid is. happy babbling!
'night TO
yeah, we're expecting a polar express to blast through here tonight. looking at minus temps plus wind chill....ergh
G'night TO
did anyone else see the news that lily munster (yvonne decarlo) died today?
Night TO
bye TO!
yes, that was sad news to hear.
well, back into the grid... have to track down that last 39
ugh lbd! it snowed on the Big Island two nights ago, we had a low come through here too.
yes, fran, I was sad She was AMAZING as lily
the front that hit you blew through yesterday...or rather last night. and now this one coming out of alaska is bearing down on us.
i watched the munsters more than the other show (which i can't think of right now)
Fran - No, that news hasn't filtered over to UK yet. Shame! I used to love that show.
Hi Babblers!
Adams Family, that was it
hi relarion!
Hi Relarion!
G'd evening relarion
Yes, Fran. I liked both, but preferred The Munsters. It had a little more subtle humour.
clues for th er words? all i have so far is mistake
Hi relarion.
I liked both those shows. lots of silly quirky characters.
hi relarion
70 words done & 70 words to go & just started about 5 10 min ago!
Ping - the other words are sexy.
Ping...sensuous
you're fast, love
jac clued those for me last night.
jac, no wonder i couldn't find those!
see, i told you she was quick on those!
Hi Lori, Fran, Jac, lb, PIng...yes, way fast, love. I have 41 left and have been on and off today, may not finish.
thanks, got them!
wow! i'm impressed love
good for you i.l.y.
lol, fran
ciao, all
*Sigh* - just got head almost bitten off by (once sweet) daughter because I asked her why she had curling tongs heating up whilst she was using her hair straighteners.
night Pam
later pam!
Seemed a reasonable question to me!
G'night Pam.
well, jee Jac, gotta have some curl in the straightened hair! lol
who can explain kids today jac?
night pam
The ro 7 please?
Fran - re the 'er' words - have you been giving me a bad reputation whilst my daughter has been wounding me??
maybe she's going to do a farrah fawcett flip.
welp, must go, criminal minds is on, and hubby is hollering for me. night everyone see you tomorrow
lori, more like the part of a tree that's underground
night lbd!
first fo6/27 anyone?
no jac, i just said that you clued those for me last night and you were very quick.
shmooz, fo6, "enemy" + "small hill"
lbd - that read really badly, 'criminal minds is on and husban is hollering for me'. Are you two set to become the new Bonnie & Clyde?
back after hearing tonight's news...felt compelled to change my icon
brb, have to get the kids a snack
Thank ye for the ro 7.
i absolutely have hated this grid for the last 30 words & i still have 30 to go :(
Oh heck, TO. What's happened now? More lads killed in Iraq?
Hell - what do you need?
Fran - I was only kidding!
of course...and more to come i'm afraid - time to resurrect the prayer chain for the men.
I loved both the addams family & the munsters, but really wednesday & pugsly & cousin itt & gomez hand-kissing mortica up the arm - gotta love that
uh oh whho died?
Time to get oout of Iraq and leave them to it, more like.
I loved Cousin It's baby - all that hair with a dummy in the middle. ROFLOL.
jacs - can't do that it would be cruel to ssay the least. being responsible is cleaning up your messes. but having lived through viet nam this is t ough
again, i gotta say it - i'm surprised some mom hasn't put a bullet in bush's head by now (or maybe she already has & no one's noticed it cause it's still ricocheting around in there)
yes are we talking addams family vs. munsters?
yvonne de carlo died today
only kidding about what jac?
oh that's sad. most people know her only as lili but she was quite the beauty in her day
I always thought she was beautiful as lily too :)
i'm missing the fe 7/8 combo that follows the boats that carry you across the river
ping, i think you need the iron ore/s
Ping... think chemical compounds... containing iron
To - I was around when Vietnam was going on, too. Though just a youngster. Having read back, I think that is a war we should not,as Westerners, interfered with, also. But that's such a dodgey platform to talk to friends about, especially one from a different continent.
thanks, TO and metal
go them both
Hell - re the Bush bullet comment. LOL
Not that I advocate anyone being assassinated either.
jhacs, it is much eesier to discuss such things when history has put some perspective on them. one thing is sure: many problems were caused by fighting half-assed on both fronts. having been around for several assinations, i think helen you don't realize what you ar saying
forgive me for making this my first comment of the evening, but I'm a new fan of assasination, myself.
for about the last 6 years or so.
hi all! =)
the problem with war is no one wants to make the big commitment - face it, it's the leaders of the country's that make the "bad" policies, but we can't just take them out, that wouldn't be cricket, instead thousands of young people are brainwashed into sacrificing themselves
hey flyndog.
ok - i'm going. sorry if i started this. i really don't think you have any idea of what you are saying and i don'[t want any part of that conversation. how can you complain about lives being taken and advocate taking one purposefully? good night.
sorry TO, i totally realize what i'm saying - basically the goal is to change the how things are done - but we have always approached it from the bottom up, instead of from the top down
The te 7 please?
Even Saddam's hanging (if it actually happened) caused me some consternation. Doesn't taking the Bible's 'an eye for an eye' etc, along with 'thou shalt not killl' make the retributers as bad as the murderers? I don't know! I just feel uncomfortable about executions. Sure, I'd want to kill someone who hurt one of my family... and the mob hangings that happen in places may well be the same things. I just feel uncomfortable about state approved taking of life.
if you go into another country with rifles & ammunition, how can it NOT be your goal to purposefully take lives?
whoops, guess I stepped in it right off the bat
more te/6
honestly, the world would be a better place without the man
tho I don't want him to be remembered fondly as a martyr
i'm talking about your advocating removel vcia gun of the person this country voted into its highest office. he is not the preseident of those who voted for him; he is the president.
let's see - if someone had just shot hitler, i know that at least 1/2 of my father's family would still be alive
hi all. I don't think I will finish this grid but I want to start...
i don't beleive you are kaming that comparison.that's truly awful.
true, TO, and I do have a healthy amount of respect for his OFFICE. but he has done a tremendous amount of damage to that office, and to our country
hi autumn moon
oh TO - that IS 2 different things i was talking about
te7 -- more like a computer guru
so, the answer is shoot him?
To - sorry if we're upsetting you by discussing things here, but what Hell just said.... Do you know how many German Jews were 'tidied away' in WWII?
Oops, I meant te 7/28
not really, but we can daydream
Some people are here for clues
what does that have to do with advocating killing hte president?
1) I AM really surprsied a mother has not become enraged about pain/dismemberment/ death of a child/soldier
hi Jilli
is it snowing at your house?
ain't no te 7/28
soryy jili - i'lll go and leave you to your clues. good bye
hey guys, time out. : )
lori, plural of cloth used for towels
hi babs!
I think the answer is to speak clearly and rationally against the killing in Iraq and to advocate for the engagement with other countries in the reigion in conversation and negotiation instead of name calling "axis of evil" cowboy BS
autumn -- it WAS snowing -- not now.
6,000,000 Jews killled in WWII. 160,000 German Jews.
hi Fran, hi everybody. I've been lurking for a few mins, after changing my icon. It's an uncomfortable topic, to be sure.
still snowing here, Jill. My hubby is stuck in New westminster....can't get up any of the hills
TO, don't go -- I have to make supper -- it's just that the clue-asker was being ignored
nice icon
Thank ye Fran.
but the other thing i was talking about is how wars are fought in general - that the goal is to change things at the top, but we sacrifice (on both sides) thousands of young lives
i am well aware of that, jacs - having studies it for two semesters. but i don't understand what that has to do with iraq
i wasn't comparing hitler to bush
TO - I never said anyone should kill te president! Quite th opposite.
wouldn't you know...as soon as I sit down to work on this the furchild wants to go outside...bbl
autumn -- the snow stopped here this afternoon but now the deep freeze sets in so beware black ice. I'm lucky I can stay home!
New book by Orson Scott Card called "Empire" just came out-worth checking out related to this discussion
and all i said was that i am genuinely surprised no one has been outraged enough yet to try to hurt bush personally --- that's not an advocation, just an observation & comment on my part
Gosh! This reminds me of the debating club at senior school. Problem is, we can't see each other's faces and body language and so misunderstandings will (or may) abound.
And for the other conversation -- war is hell
yeah, Jill...I will simply take the lazy way out and put her in the yard instead of a walk. bbl
te7/28 anyone?
no discussion here
shmooz, plural of cloth for towels.
te 7/28 many towles
yes jili - war IS hell - it should be avoided at ALL costs
The te 7 was just clued. (Thank ye again Fran)
I don' t know what a towle is.
hk, that won't happen until women are in charge of the world, men have gone to war for centuries.
There is an art to war - Sun Tzu's famous book. He basically said to aim to resolve, and suggested lots of ways of doing it. War was only a very last resort, and even that had stages. I wonder if today's people at the top are at all familiar with it.
te7/28 (did I say there wasn't one? Sorry) -- Rhymes with one of the ch8/50s -- the fruity one
hillary, towel
AMEN FRAN
can anyone clue me the 10 letter word please
I feel sad and frustrated by the aggressive posture the US now finds itself in, and heartbroken at the thought of all of the hatred and sorrow that has been generated by this war.
babbler - that should be required reading for everyone elected to office
te7 bradshaw and toons
hi knitter! fe4/7 + to6/18
I think so too, helen
love orson scott card's stuff... I will definitely check out Empire, thanks!
it is a place to keep saint's relics fe________
the 10 letter word I mean
hi fran. soory to hear you were "cold" today in beautiful hawaii
o2baf - me too!
brb, kids want more grapes.
aknitter -- fe10 -- f + *** long + whigs and ****** (conservatives)
I am saddened at how aggressive things get on here when we try to discuss something that important to us all.. as a global community.
lol knitter, that was a couple nights ago, but i like it cooler.
enci, I feel the same exactly... and sad and angry to be associated in any way with this kind of unprovoked aggression against a soverign country
i am with you o2 & enci
now I'm going to get my supper at last!!!
I see it as impassioned, Jac. I wouldn't expect less, they're hot potatoes.
jacula - as long as it doesn't resort to inane name calling, i enjoy the 'debate', 'dicussion' whatever you want to call it
Politics and religion - the things I promised myself early on in my life that I would NEVER discuss with friends... why? Because they are , and have been, the biggest causes of wars and coflict throughout our history.
I am happy to see energy put into the debate- even if it gets ugly and uncomfortable- apathy will kill us if we let it.
the topics I mean. (am I digging a hole??)
sorry, jac, I don't feel aggressive, just passionate
Enci - We must never let apathy get us!
no babbler - you done good !
i knew what you meant babs!
we should try to not let that sort of thing happen again
o2 - passion is good!
oh phew! lol
but jacula - of course, now that you are older & wiser, your tune has quite changed, no?
can I have a clue for the er 8 pls
favorite word of the day so far- the 2d ce 4/5
yet voter turnout continues to drop
well I meant 7 but will take the 8 too, assume it is a pair
now I will be splitting my attention between you wonderful people, the grid (hopeless tonight!) and criminal minds... so I bow (hopefully not totally without grace) out of this conversation...
We all live on the same bit of space rock. One day, we may all have to team up to work out how to save it, or go elsewhere. I think it's good tht we thrash out any differences now.
phand, another form of the er6/21, to make provocative.
good chatting with you o2, bye
kind of a strange spelling phand.
me too, Jac.
later flyndog!
babbler - just noticed your seashell icon - that's truly loverly!
er 7/48 is to make something er 6/21
140 words. Done! Thank ye all for the clues.
yay lori!
Hell - I'l send you a poem I once wrote about what the Nazis did.
wd lori!
Congrats Lori
okay jacula
HELP, can
HELP cant get it...
thanks helen. they're beads apparently. someone took a gorgeous pic for their ebay listing!
But it wasn't them that fed any neo-hate I may have had as a child - it was the Japanese... what they did to my Godfather.
congratulations lori!
phand, first 5 letters of the er6 + **ta-jones (catherine)
er7 rhymes with flies
thnx
But, having said that, I don't hate the Japanese now. We Brits just keep on with our silly pseudo war about cooking with the French.
for putting me out of my misery
lol phand!
"Cooking with the French" could make a reality show that I might actually watch.
LOL enci
oh dear...only 8 words in and I have already resorted to using lickety's....not good for me
Enci - that sounds fun. what chefs/cooks would you put up against each other? Would it be celebrities or celebs and unknowns?
I must toddle off to bed. Thank you all for the help, and have a great evening!
today is the festival of er or er or or or er. it is puzzling.
Bet, me and my Paul would win! LOL.
night lori!
I would have random French cooks sent to live with British families and vice versa.
Enci - bet you me and Paul could keep up with those random cooks!
Where are you from, Enci? France?
i prefer peasant fare in any country, you know, every day food. although i do appreciate a nice gourmet meal with well-prepared sauces and great desserts.
hmmm... culinary battle pitting the brits and franch? I gotta ay, I'd rather have Coq au vin over haggis any day.. or crepes over steak and kidney pie
;)
commercial... can I just say CONGRATS to any and all who finished this blasted grid!?!
Hey, hold on, Haggis is the food of the Gods!!
I like that too, Fran, but last so-called French restaurant I was in managed to overcook duck (not easy to do!) anf served me raw vegs.
lizmac, you should get out to eat more! LOL =)
er, no, it's trolls that live under bridges, not gods....
i want to try haggis at least once in my life
Uh och, Ah hae angered a highlander... guff!
frankly, it doesn't sound that bad.
Mushy vegs are not not nice! Raw begs are fine in salads. But the in between, for cooked meals, insn't something many cooks can achieve. I can! So can Paul!
jac, no excuse for that!
fran... the lungs part would be tough for me... I have a hard time eating offal
I pity your poor uneducated palates :)
(i meant the french restaurant experience)
lizmac - uh, what gods are you talking about?
ignorance can be bliss........
lol bj !
smooth, my husband is filipino, offal figures into a lot of dishes.
I think it is much tooo good for the gods good enough for us Scots though
hehe... liz, I mean no offense, but I gotta tell ya... haing eaten in 14 different countries, and cusinie from countless more, you'd be hard pressed to sell me on the culinary superiority of the UK. ;)
help with the 1st HE 7 pls
Nearly
BJ - I agree with you re the ignorance. Hell! Isn't the world palate so wonderfully diverse?
phand, plural mr. fonda
don't get me wrong fran, I've eaen my fair share of it... but were tghe choice offered to me, I would opt out.
thnx again
is liver offal?
If it wasn't, we wouldn't have the plethora of recipes that we do have.
Ummmmmm..only joking you lot, but I AM very fond of haggis!
i'm not sure babs
hmmm, i have never tried haggis, but you gotta admit that it's got quite the bad reputation, but when i think of it, there is alot of 'weird' stuff that i really enjoy - liver, fish eggs, kidneys
Babbler - yes, liver is offal.
indeed, and no adventure to go with it. But I prefer to choose my adventures....
there's a blog dedicated to offal, offaly good is what it's called.
multiple kings of England He/7
technically yes, babbler... offal refers to internal organs that aren't muscle or bone
I adore liver!
most famous having many wives
Never had till i came to Canada!!!
me too babs and my favorite thing at Popeye's is the fried gizzards.
Liver, onions and baby new potatoes with butter and mint...
liver is nice when drowned in caramelized onions....
then - i LOVE offal, lol
and fried livers.
what are gizzards?
bj - ITA !
Jacs, stop it. No drool protector on my keyboard....
though liz, I'd rather down a haggis than some of our own American southern farre, like chitlins or rocky mountin fried oyseters. lol
chicken livers
gizzards are turkey guts.
chicken gizzards, it's a muscular organ that grinds things i think
yum, Jacs
Okay, poultry guts.
if you don't like SOuthern food- you haven't had my biscuits.
And you miscry haggis, hmph!
smooth - i almost hate to ask - what are rocky mountain fried oysters? wait, does it start with a 'T'?
not sure I've had gizzards. I've tried most things. Couldn't stomach stomach. :s
well, it's one certain thing in the poultry.
yes helen!
I've never tried haggis. Always wondered about it.
enci... I do like some southern fare... my family is pure hillbilly from tennessee... damn good biscuits and gravy, and other dishs... but I still can't handle chitlins
now, has anybody got any clues for all my missing CHs?
that reminds me of the first family party i went to with my husband.
yes HK... bingo!
my other half makes gravy out of gizzards. If I find them (gizzards) I just chuck them in 'Hunting Cat's' direction.
then i'm not ever even going to try those oysters, yuck!
his nephews thought it would be "fun" to try to gross me out so they offered me a dish with pig "oysters"
and being from the north - what exactly are chitlins?
le 5?
i got a huge amount of points for actually trying them
hk... chitlins are fried pig intestines
poor, poor fran!
i use the poultry liver for gravy. never though of using the gizzards.
phand, worm-like insect that grabs on and sucks blood.
smooth - what do they taste like?
le5/14 is a blood sucker
Should have got that. Thnx
you guys are making me hungry! started thinking about the southern fare from my youth... gumbo... mmmm
Much worse seeing them harvested?
hk... that's ough to describe... closest I can think of is fried crap. lol
conversations usually turn to food here.... ; )
Oysters
crawfish... mmmm
LOL smooth - can't says i've ever tried that either
do you know, I've never tried oysters! love caviar though.
the preperation really grosses me out... having to "clean them by hand in between multiple washings
True
boudin... mmmmm
wow babs! i looove oysters.
babbler - 2 very different things - i love caviar, i hate oysters
boudin?
Praire oysters?
love caviar too.
i hate oysters, but i love snail, maybe if oysters were made with a nice garlic butter sauce & you could chew them & if they tasted like snails, then i might like them
they lifted the ban on russian caviar this year, but beluga is still not allowed to be harvested, they are still too endangered.
I'm sure i've tried snails, with garlic butter
boudin, delicious cajun dish... rice, pork, spices
raw oysters are disgusting... but if you fry them 'til they're "dry"... they are almost palatable
OR 8?
no, raw is the best way ml.
boudin is gross, tastes too strongly of liver... but andouille is wonderful, as is tasso
phand, or + re7 minus the T
you've had bad boudin metal!
nope, tried two raw oysters... the first because I never had... the second to see if they were all as horrid as the first
have never been tempted, or foolish, enough to try the third
fo 6 -- have plural musical volume
speaking of food, gotta get dinner going, see you all in a little bit.
have had boudin a few times... just don't like the liver taste
nan, "enemy" + "small hill"
in my opinion some of the tastiest foods come from central america...all the peppers, meats, and flavors! close (if not equal) middle eastern/central asian... those are flavors you just don't ind elsewhaere
CH8/50, not the fruity one, any clues?
and last fo6 is lend me $10 bucks, i'm good fo* ** (then double the R)
bye!
and many non-offal offerings. ;)
i went to the ussr in 1988 - there i met a bunch of people in their 20's whose main job was to sell american tourists caviar & cuban cigars - 2 of them befriended my sister & i & took us all over leningrad, paid for everything (cause they were loaded!) gave us lots of caviar & cigars to take home (for free) & all they wanted in exchange was to know everything about american anything - music, politics, education, class system, jobs, clothes --- it was an amazing 'exchange' program!
thanks, fran
I guess I don't have that re 7; is it the last one?
bye fran
more like ch 5/14
sounds awesome HK! I spent 3 months in russia at the turn of the millenium.. not nearly the same environment as when you went, but an amazing country nonetheless
by fran
which re7?
Bye fran
The last one
smooth - it was crawling with people in uniform when i was there
fo6? -- between ahead and frontier settlement
heh... yeah, a totally different environment... though the remnents were still so visible! the hammer and sicle on everything, the lenin statues,e tc...
what is the he 7 next to the six-wived kings?
smooth - i've had 2 MAJOR breath-taking experiences in my life: 1) the first time i saw the rocky mountains, 2) seeing the hammer & sickle flying over the kremlin, lit up at night -- not sure why, but it really was breathtaking!
heh... I can imagine!
I think, since reading the chatlog back, after being away talking to my son, that I may be sick if I read any more raw sea food stuff.
one of mine was climbing a volcano before it blew. lol thugh it didn't blow big
he 7: one who has a fortune left to them (usually preceded by 'in')
so does anyone have a clue for the last re 7?
smooth - when you were there, were the shelves full, cause they were very empty in many stores when i was there
fo6? -- between ahead and frontier settlement
phan - last re7 = attempted again.
thanks, nan!
thnx
No, I meant atempts again.
mostly full... I was in Nizhni Novgorod (it was called Gorki whle you were there) but being a large city the democracy had really taken a foothold, so stores were full of product... either insanely cheap or way overpriced.
like a weasily rodent with an o for an e
you got it anyway,phan. x
ch8/50, not fruity one, PLEASE. I promise not to mention haggis again.
is that the fo 6, enci?
actually the stores were pretty expensiv... the markets were dirt cheap
yes
nan, try "there's just no hope fo* **" with a double letter in the middle
thank you -- got it!
the stores had a lot of american products that were waaaaay expensive... the grocery stores though were fairly comparable to here, though... but still a lot cheaper
back!
Tnned hagggis is disgusting! Fresh haggis is fine.
rice is cooking and you won't believe what hubby brought home for dinner.
LOL smooth - russians, a funny bunch -- when i was there, the hotels (which were only open to people with foreign passports & their 'guests') were totally capitalistic - lotsa products & gambling, lots of slot machines - i wasn't expecting that
oysters?
fe 5? -- have senses and stink
Fran - what?
fish?
chicken?
haggis?
TY Jacula for your fine observation....too true.
a deer?
he brought filipino food, one of the dishes is called dinaktakan
sounds like a good pairing, fran
HA! I stayed in a hotel for only a couple of nights... but it was looking rundown... like it hadn't seen any business since you had been there. lol but it was HUGE! I mean, bigger than I was expecting... something like 20 or 30 floors, and each floor probably had a good 75 rooms... I mean... it was BIG! and There just weren't that many people there... although, that may have been due to the fact that it was january. lol
it's all the "spare parts" of the pig like snouts, ears and such along with some meat, mixed with brains.
Which is what, Fran? (Don't make me Google!)
oh -----yukk!
it has kind of a vinegary taste, i like it
Bleurgh!
I thought that was called dog food, fran!
nan - still loving your icon!
now,That is Really revolting
ty helen -- one of my brighter moments!
don't knock it till you've tried it
It's what we in UK call Bruan or brawn, Fran. Never tasted it myself but the men in my family like it.
fe 5? -- have senses and stink
hi, can i please get a clue for the se6?
cute icon nan!
ty fran
nan, do you have plural of celebration?
se + me + Mr. Guevera
no -- do now! thanks
thanks cybernan
lol smooth - yeah, i get it, january is definitely the OFF-season there, hahaha - hey, did they still have the "watcher" - there was a person stationed on every floor near the elevators that kept track of everyone's comings & goings
ramix - Hi. se6 = a wave caused by seismic disturbance. Looks a bit like Hitler's 3rd Re*** plus a vowel.
fran - that just sounds B-A-D bad!
Which is where all of this discussion began on here,. I think!
nah hk... couldn't afford to kpay dsomeone like that, and the government sure didn't seem to care... seemed odd... being in a city that so many people died trying to get into. lol it was even closed to Russians without proper authorization during the cold war.
hk, it's really not that bad, people that don't know think the brains are mayonnaise.
fe 6/27 x2, fe 6/33 --- what fe 6 am I missing, please?
oh fran!
could i have some helpwith the first OR 5/6 combo please?
fe6/30 nan, to do with iron
Only taste better
or 5/6 combo: type of window -- a little like the little mermaid
ping, think of a place you go to work (home off***) then change the first consonant
or5/6??
hey nan, can you please clue me on your 2 fe6 33's? ta
oh duh, wrong combo ping, look at nan's clue
windows or sea birds.
thanks, nan!
fe+facial spasm + consonant
ramix, only one fe6/33, fe + sounds like an insect that attaches to dogs and cats.
thanks fran
ah, thanks guys...for some reason i kept adding an r to my spelling!
fe6/33 - a pottent magical object.
well, there are certainly enough Rs for doing that ramix! :-)
Fran - are you still p**sed with me? Or ar we okay?
why would i be upset with you jac?
I can't go to sleep until I know that.
did you do something i should know about?
I thought yiyu were, Fran, re former discussions.
not at all jac, are you talking about the criminal minds comment?
jac - i didn't get that fran was upset with anyone
Sorry, can't type cpherently now; v.tired.
what's the first word please? is it ce4? (i'm too stubborn to check any of the lists!)
Dunno, Fran. Never mind!xxx

lets see how good...my last f...not sure which one: i have 14 fe's and 7 fos
back from sudoku - that was way too easy
nm...found it
I know it is getting late but I need a clue for fe10/91,please?
marc, sounds like a place where you keep those weasly animals..ends in the british conservatives
marc - rhymes with northwest ter********, part of us explored by lewis & clark
i hate it when i find out i don't have the words i was sure i put in last night
oh & did i mention - I HATE THIS GRID!
big sigh - feel better now
i'm with you helen!!
^5 ramix!
for some reason the ts are killing me
yeah - see, that's the killer, there aren't any weird words in the t's at all - they're mostly all normal words we see all the time - it's something about the layout of these letters that's making it so confusing
which fish would you like?
haha...slap me with snaky fish e/5
LOL
back, done with dinner.
hk, i heard you hate this grid.
so sorry to hear that fran, :p
ah fran...i neeeeeeeeeeeeed you
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - 3 to go
what do you need ramix?
2 c's dunno which, 3 t's dunno which 1e dunno which
ramix needs t's, but i told her they were all regular words - i offered up a fish :)
do you have ec4/6?
well, there, that narrows it down quite a bit
ramix - try to add some e's & r's to those letters, LOL
hk, cute icon
lol helen
aha..i dont hace ec
tx fran - flosey & i chose the exact same one :)
Cs, 2 x CE, 11 x CH, 5 x Ci, 2 x CR
ramix, ec is like what you hear if you shout from a mountain, change last vowel
see - this is what i'm talking about - has just taken me forever to find ch5/20 . . . WHY????
aha...need a ch and a ci
hk, ch7 is comparative of that.
yeah - that one was MUCH easier to figure out, haha
ok the monkeying for ec/4 isnt working!!
ch8, ch5, ch8, ch5, ch7, ch5, ch6, ch5 x 2, ch6, ch4
ramix - what you would hear in the grand canyon, but change the last vowel
ec + ** not she
hellllooooo ........ hellloooooooo ....... helllloooooo
well i'll be ec4/5'd!
ci4, ci5, ci4, ci5 x 2
need that last ch6 and the first ci5 i think
well, the lake oscillation was an elusive one, at least for me this evening. it was my last.
last ch6, add a vowEl to the ch5/14 before it.
that was my last one too ml!
ineedhelp
first ci5 is ci + double consonant (yes, that one) + a vowel
for a smaller grid, this one was a prolonged one, at least for me
danke fran...now to tackle those elusive ts and r
what do you need chrisnmel?
trees
yes meta - for me too
10 x TE, 4 x Ti, 6 x TO, 8 x TR
chris - i just put my x-mas tr** in the backyard today - you want that one? lol
i need 2 tis and 1 to
words ive only got 34
17 x RE, 10 x Ri, 6 x RO
firewords !
yay hk!!!
here i generously offer my tr** & chris doesn't want it, huh
Ti's are all ti4/4s ramix
i'm so jealous helen
lol ramix - i resorted to the list, don't be so stubborn!
i have step, neckwear, wheel
to4/4, to4/4, to5/12, to6/18, to4/4, to4/4
the anagram of 3 person band
ramix, last ti4/4 is a newbie, change last vowel of the wheel
the novice
and what hk said
i need one of the last to4s not the spanish bull
i am going to take care of some e-mail now
double cons at the end?
see you later hk!
yeah, what helen said
mamamia...slap me with that e5! hurry!
ramix, "small hill" and double the consonant at the end
lol fran - yep, i'm outta here for now , gl ramix!
later hk!
lol - i gotta say it - told ya so! it's something about the layout of the letters that's making it so darned confusing!
bb for the flip
you need e5 ramix?
got that fran...i have 14 res
now i gotta figure out which i need
i need 1 ri also
re4/7, re4/4, re5/10, re4/4, re6/27, re7/40, re5/16, re5/10, re4/4, re5/10, re6/18, re6/18, re7/28, re6/18, re7/28, re5/10
what the flippin hell r yall talkn about
ri4/5, ri5/12, ri4/6, ri6/24, ri6/24, ri4/4, ri5/10, ri4/4, ri4/4, ri5/10
chrisnmel, look at "lickety's babble clues" in the links below the grid, that should help you out.
that first re5/16,
also, "angelsong's babble page" is very useful.
ramix, sounds like tripped again
or took a tumble again
and it's an ri 6/24, not the more moneyed
ramix, to make more moneyed, change the last letter
woot...now i gotta figure out the re tumble
ramix, take an E out of the touch again re6
yah...down to the last 2!!!
and they are both re 6s
plural the re5/16
and ripped again i'm guessing.
oh i loooove u fran!! my last re now
it contains that "small hill' word again.
guess who sees fireworks now?!!! me me me!! thanks fran. the first grid i've finished in ages
yay ramix!!
now i can die happy
that's only because you're too stubborn to look at lickety's clues! :-)
I have 3 left. the last 3 or words, the big ones
i know...it just spoils the fun for me
shannon, or + grainy food and its plural

jilli, i lost the name, but it's some kind of scallop i think
hahahaha, Faerie--more on the way tomorrw!
boo hoo -- faerie doesn't like my shell -- weep!
thanks faerie!
oh thanks, faerie! *stops weeping*
I like all the shells
Jill my Mom had a shell like yours and we loved holding to our ear to listen to the ocean when we were kids :)
Hi Tiny
found that re 5/16--cat has one paw on my hand. very hard to type.
me too, tiny--I think they'll all beautiful, it was difficult for me to choose last night.
they'll = they're
I like all the shells too, tactful Tiny!
I can't decide which shell pic to use for tomorrow...
we all had that problem ml
LoL Mirand - kittys are good typist if you will just turn it lose
yeah me too but I went different
I'll do a fashion show and get your input, okay?
okay ml
Hi Metal *waiting for fashion show*
better than monkeys?
second fe6,27 anyone?
OK-strut your stuff, metal
metal -- Mardi Gras is French for Fat Tuesday and I didn't think it started so soon!
well I'm not sure if kitty's are better than Monkeys but you could give it whirl LOL
you mean fo6/27 zabeth? "enemy" + "small hill"
sorry, wrong one, keep looking fo* **, you'll find it (double the R though)
ok, here's the first one... lots of colors, but perhaps a bit garish?
faerie -- forgive me, but the plural of kitty is kitties. Kitty's is a possessive, meaning something that belongs to a kitty.
i like that ml, it's different with several shells instead of one big one.
ahh. yes. i did mean fo, fran. but i'm stumped. 12 minutes remaining and my brain is frying.
It is bright metal
true enough jilli.... but king Cake season has already started and it is a decidedly important part of the pre Mardi Gras time here in south Louisiana
lotsa lovelies, metal...
i never shy away from bright myself.
ok, here comes the next one
zabeth, fo + double consonant (the one we have lots of) + take ** to the limit
zabeth you have to look fo* ** but use double r
King Cake? Roi Gateau?
Oh Metal that is beautiful
that's pretty too ml, and it goes with your love of food.
Jilli--maybe Faerie meant Kitty's (paws)
my vote...keep looking, metal
42 away --- i think i'm not finishing tonight
here's the next in line
metal -- shelly King Cake?
Ummmmm Mirand your exactly right LOL
hi debbs!!
hi debb!
thank you! got it! slow, but eventually!
that's lovely too ml
hi frannie! and jilli!
Hi Debb
I like that one, metal
you're is short for you are
not quite jilli, it's a neat thought though
today was my last day of my job - almost 18 years !
Metal how are we suppose to chose they are all so pretty
i don't have any of the ors...anyone?
and when my boss left - he sort of gave me a head nob and walked right out
uhh--that would be you're, faerie--unless you meant "your (thought) was right."
wow debb! that's a long time.
you understand my dilemma then
Debb - Sad or Happy
on to the next... back in a few
ml, i vote for #1 because it's different
I like the last one best so far, metal
me too, jill
only sad cause i was working with one of my closest dearest friends - but THRILLED to be away from bossman
great, debb! Now what?
thanks for correcting my grammar Mirand *blush*
i start my new gig on tuesday!
debb, he sounds like a jerk, your new job sounds cool though
Oh good -- faerie didn't notice I was correcting too
thanks fran!
I think this is my fav. image so far, even if it's not as colorful
what's the new job, debb?
Well congratulations Debb - on to bigger and better things now and you can still stay in touch with friends
now that's cool ml, keep that one.
in baseball jilli - the dodger organization
thanks faerie
bingo, metal!
I think I will
That is nice but I like the one you had just before this last one.
this is a pretty one ml
ml, i doubt you'
debb -- now I remember -- slight conflict of interest - lol
you'll find a consensus in this chat log! :-)
just slight :-)
it's an X-ray of a checkered bonnet
at least it's NL, debb
debb, you might want to keep your Mets mug and two foot banner at home now.
:-)
true - i'm really excited -- it's baseball
you're right - and have to change my im icon
let's go dodgers
Good Luck in making your choice Metal they are all beautiful
I hope it's a smallish, but civilized one tomorrow
