12:46 am

hi Tiny! lovely flower (carnation? peony?)

12:47 am

has anyone esle seen the snow in california??..how bizarre

12:47 am

12:47 am

I'd love some snow and ice, preferably with subzero temperatures during the day and a nice, sharp winter sun to go with it.

12:47 am

okay, I am not making any sense at all. going to hit the sack. See you-all soon, I hope... *laughing at kierlex... but you're used to dry and cold!*

12:48 am

no nan, we do NOT want to go for -10!

12:48 am

later stid!

12:48 am

oh man, it rains here way more than i am comfortable with!

12:48 am

What I don't like is that the ed7 is valid, but the ad7 is not.

gnite stid, sweet dreams of historical figures

12:49 am

we have had 15 major storms and ONE full day of sun since Halloween. Snow is still on the ground although melting but more is forecast for tomorrow. Bah.

12:49 am

ooh nan, i'm missing one

12:49 am

jillibus are you on teh coast side of BC?

by the way I LOVE the name Jackson...

12:49 am

forecast here is for snow also jilli -- ugh!

12:49 am

later sprite!

12:49 am

Forecast here is for 2 weeks of sun - a bit of a worry

12:49 am

nan -- who is your historical figure?

12:50 am

never mind Jilli - the snowdrops will soon be bursting through

12:50 am

Handel

12:50 am

bach?

12:50 am

oh, well, i was close, NOT

12:50 am

Oh what is the theme?

12:50 am

favorite historical figure angb

12:51 am

love your choice of Eleanor Rossevelt, flosey -- she addressed us at McGill at a convocation -- what an inspiring person

12:51 am

for example, i historically favor keanu's figure

12:51 am

Whoa - that could be hard

12:51 am

where does one find the theme? i saw earlier babbler had it in his info

12:51 am

Roosevelt (too tired tonight)

12:51 am

kier - you crack me up!

12:51 am

oh how I would love to have heard her speak in person

12:52 am

marpocky, "her" info, different babbler

12:52 am

marp - yes - babbler keeps track of the icon themes, you can also email her with your own suggestions

12:52 am

there's a link on the right side of lickety's clue pag

12:52 am

hk and jilli, great icons as usual

12:53 am

oh right. her. sorry.

12:53 am

jili heard elanor roosevelt give a speech - the closest i got to her was once working at roosevelt high school here in chicago

12:53 am

ya'll are so creative. i can't decide on a favorite so i went with my standby.

12:53 am

dumb di6, i've never seen this spelling, but i guess i shouldn't be surprised.

12:54 am

Marpocky -- you can get the Icon Themes from Lickety's page (on the right) or if you put Babbler in My Friends you can look it up easily. BTW, Babbler is a she, Lickety is a he and MrPresident is a she. :D

12:54 am

ty fran - & yours informative as always

12:54 am

thanks jilli! and others

12:54 am

kier - you're so funny! yeah, i hear ya, i have trouble picking a 'favorite' too, but this is one i really, really like

12:55 am

Helen -- I love M. Faberge -- as I said, there are so many great historical figures it's so hard to choose just one

12:55 am

okay, i looked up the di6 and it makes sense now.

12:56 am

Up dated my icon

12:56 am

right you are jili!

12:56 am

very cool angb

12:57 am

en7

12:57 am

ang - excellent choice!

12:57 am

A real gentleman and very humble. As well as being famous in NZ if not further afield.

12:57 am

Angb -- good choice, and a Kiwi too!

12:57 am

hugs, you are on fire tonight!

12:58 am

Thanks fran for your icon - didn't know magellan went that far

12:58 am

It's a good grid tonight

12:58 am

ok, i finally decided on someone more 'appropriate' =)

2 x da7

12:59 am

down to 85 -- have to leave some for tomorrow's entertainment! Good night, all :)

12:59 am

Jilli - I would have to have a kiwi. But copernicus is a great choice - turned the world upside down LOL

12:59 am

night nan!

12:59 am

Nan why did you chose handel?

12:59 am

fran - when we had a litter of puppies, i named one of them magellen, cause i could never find him, he was always 'exploring' something in the basement (like under the couch or behind the bookshelf)

1:00 am

nan -- you still haven't said who your choice is -- or did I miss it?

1:00 am

very nice kier! except i wasn't complaining about keanu!

good nite nan")

1:00 am

jilli, it's Handel

1:00 am

that's so cute hk!

1:00 am

Thanks, Fran -- I wonder why

1:00 am

helen, that's cute about the puppy named magellan. we named a little kitten 'clark' for the same reason (after lewis & clark)

1:01 am

i sure hope he wasn't killed by the Filipinos too.

1:01 am

i can use my keanu icon tomorrow =) and i mean use in only the most G-rated sense

lol kier

1:02 am

Helen -- one of our Dane litteres contained a pup who kept leaping off things and we called him Evel (Knievel) -- his new owners didn't understand and didn' t like thename.

1:03 am

maniac - thanks for the 2nd da7

100 - 1 -7, no 8's & no 9's !

1:03 am

that's cute jilli, some people have no sense of humor

1:03 am

I used to have this sweet but psychotic cat who would zoom around the house 90 mph... I called her Mario (Andretti). People always called her "him".

lol jili - that's a good one

1:03 am

wow hk, that was fast

1:04 am

we named a cat 'Mrrrp' once because he didn't meow, he Mrrrp'ed

not that fast at all - 71 - 4's, 24 - 5's, 5 -6's - all the baby words

phantom shindig lol

calling it a night with 132 found / happy babbling all

1:06 am

Yeah, I swear shindig should be a word

bye wilson

1:06 am

most of the big ones share a common ending so once you find one, you'll be trucking along again helen.

1:06 am

good job, wilson

1:06 am

night wilson!

1:06 am

My dear old cat has quite a vocabulary -- she Mrrps and says Hewwo and yells sometimes and then says oh when I tell her to be quiet.

this is such a fun grid!!

1:07 am

shindig is a word, just not in the grid

I also think shite should be a word... heard it all the time when I was growing up LOL

1:07 am

yes. it's larger than a gathering, smaller than a hootenanny

1:07 am

right, that's what I meant :)

lol

1:08 am

i love a good hootenanny

1:08 am

99 left and time for bed. see you all tomorrow

lol fran

1:08 am

I'm too tired to see the fun in this grid -- have 13 words so far :( -- think I should go to bed and forget about this or I'll never get the rest of my life attended to

1:08 am

as long as you can bring a covered dish to the hootenanny

1:08 am

wtg marpocky! see you tomorrow

good nite marp

1:08 am

abe lincoln? what did he do?

1:08 am

KIDDING.

1:08 am

yay, halfway and now my brain is completely fried... night all

jil are you okay... you sound totally beaten

1:09 am

oh not much really. i think he invented the internet or somethign

1:09 am

i'm not saying goodnight to jilli, because we all know she's going to be here for a couple more hours or so. :-)

1:09 am

i never pictured him with a beard, after all these years

1:09 am

lol marpocky!

in8

1:10 am

night angel!

1:10 am

(((jilli)))) Some people think it helps to get some sleep every once in a while, you might try that ;)

1:10 am

volley -- it was a busy day -- library shift and then grocery shopping - didn't get supper until 8 pm, many phone calls -- yes, I'm beat!

1:10 am

very funny, sprite!!!

poor thing! I hope tomorrow is better for you!!

1:11 am

yes jili, as a fellow babbing insomniac, i highly recommend you go get some REST

1:12 am

It will be a tough day tomorrow, trying to resist babbling the day away when there are other things I MUST attend to

1:12 am

don't take this the wrong way jilli, but you really should go.

1:12 am

let's all shun jillibus until she goes to bed.

1:12 am

and then you can shun me and make me go to bed ...

1:13 am

I agree, fran -- still have dishes to do...

good nite jili

1:13 am

I could never shun jilli

1:14 am

yay! greyed out the Ks

1:14 am

awwww!!! shunning???? Well, you're right...bye! (dear sprite!)

1:14 am

sweet dreams, jilli *hug*

1:15 am

night jilli! sleep well

1:15 am

Fran, must you really brag about that? I only have 5 so far :(

1:15 am

1:17 am

oh what a life it must be. :) good night

kh5

1:18 am

Hello KH. Are you still here?

1:18 am

1:18 am

hi mkl

1:19 am

Hi Fran.

1:19 am

ka4 and ka5, kh5, ki6 and kr4 are what you're missing sprite.

1:19 am

I don't have a split personality. My wife's visiting her parents in Nevada, and she's logged on under my name also.

1:19 am

I just tried kihi. Does that mean I am desperate or just creative?

hah - i finally found the key to the biggies!

1:20 am

She's the k in mkl.

1:20 am

i figured it was something like that! :-)

1:20 am

wtg helen!

1:20 am

let's go with creative sprite

yay, finished!

1:21 am

woo hoo mitch!

1:21 am

great maniac

1:21 am

maniac_mitch, you rock!

1:21 am

You're a maniac Mitch.

1:21 am

nite, I'll call in the am

1:21 am

Thanks Fran, only the Ki6 left to find, thanks to your clues. WTG mitch!

wd mitch !

1:21 am

You have the base for that word already sprite

1:22 am

yw sprite, ki6 is like biggies

1:22 am

got it!

hah- got the 9!

1:22 am

it appears that jillibus is STILL BABBLING

1:22 am

Hi all can I get a word count today?

1:22 am

yay sprite! Ks conquered again!

235

1:22 am

Somehow my usual eye-for-words goes completely blind when the word starts K. I should have seen that Ki6 a long time ago of course. Kazzer, 235.

1:22 am

235 kazzer

sprite - you inspired me, i just greyed the k!

1:23 am

I'm missing 1 more K.. but I can't figure out what it is... I have ka4&5, Kh5, kh4x2, ki4, ki5, ki6 and kr4

kier - how do you know?

1:23 am

hugs, ka4/9

1:23 am

another ka4, Hugs.

1:23 am

says she is still online... that insomniac!

1:24 am

yay helen!

1:24 am

she just doesn't log out kier, neither do i.

1:24 am

Thanks Fran... got it

1:24 am

yay hk!

1:24 am

cool hugs!

1:24 am

perhaps jilli is getting ready for bed and leaving the computer on a little longer... in case she can't sleep ;)

ah kier - maybe she just 'forgot' to log out :)

1:26 am

I keep seeing riksha

1:26 am

i have 105 left, but i have to go do some page layout stuff. i'll see you all later!

1:26 am

bye Fran :)

1:27 am

1:28 am

75 foir tomorrow

good nite everyone :)

1:32 am

night helen

1:32 am

nite helen

1:32 am

remind me - the hairy dolphin?

1:33 am

i4 babblet, Angb. Hairy-nosed dolphin.

1:34 am

For some reason that word always makes me smile.

1:35 am

Got it. Always forget that one

1:35 am

hi all just got on you just know you are in trouble when your first two words do not exist

1:36 am

I know the feeling, diem! Hi, just look for a promising ending and you will feel better.

1:36 am

hi diem grid is fun - I think

1:36 am

you know, i googled 'hairy-nosed dolphin' as a phrase and the only thing that came up was A BABBLE REFERENCE. scary

1:37 am

lol kier! That is scary.

1:37 am

LOL kier

1:37 am

We have our own language!

1:37 am

yep, babble puzzle archive number 952.

1:37 am

I will give you the def: A South American freshwater dolphin. It is ten or twelve feet long, and has a hairy snout

1:38 am

thanks, i monkey typed it in advertently

1:38 am

as usual

1:38 am

I'll tell my 9year old - he'll remember

1:38 am

thank God for our monkeys

1:38 am

lol Angb, isn't that the truth!

1:39 am

Great idea, Angb.

1:40 am

da8: a loose, often colorfully patterned, pullover garment originating in Africa and worn chiefly by men (alt. spelling)

1:41 am

Well that helped sprite - not

1:42 am

ahh, thanks sprite!

1:42 am

lol Angb, sorry to hear that!

1:43 am

ok, let's try this: it starts with 'raised platform', followed by 'to walk' with other last vowel.

1:45 am

ahh, thanks for the alternate spelling sprite, i only had the other spelling

1:45 am

da7 is the 'normal' spelling, by the way.

1:45 am

lol, in unison, kier :)

1:47 am

thnx sprite for being so patient

1:47 am

Never heard of it

1:48 am

oh all the things we learn from babble :) Glad you found it, Angb.

1:50 am

Have you the in 7 that USers do to their presidents?

1:51 am

Yes, thanks! It helped me find in7 and in8 too.

1:52 am

Have not got the 8- back to lool

1:53 am

in7/32 latin plural, in8/50 past tense. Build on e4/5.

1:54 am

the in7 that USers do to presidents?? heh?

1:54 am

Are we talking about the same word sprite. Dont; think so

1:55 am

ok i am getting 6 more words and then going to bed.

1:56 am

Yes, it is almost the same word. You need to insert a vowel after the in.

1:56 am

are there any other Brits here?

1:57 am

onyl for a few mintes - got to go to work

1:57 am

Oh, and Angb, your in7 has an en7 brother.

1:57 am

same here - just wondered if I was the only person who had electric

1:57 am

poor Kazzer!

1:58 am

thnx for all of those sprite

1:58 am

holy bajoles, i got the 9 all by my lonesome!

1:58 am

yw :)

1:58 am

wtg kier! That's such a kick, isn't it.

1:58 am

yay kier

1:59 am

yes, and such a rare rare occurence for this babbler!

1:59 am

Even kickier then :) (This could be a babble word!)

1:59 am

Me too kier. I spend 1/2 hour each day at flip trying to ignore the clues hoping that I will get the odd 8 or 9.

2:00 am

maybe unkickier would be a babble word

2:02 am

OK where are my words going?

2:03 am

When I started today, someone was posting the biggies in the chatlog to 'help'. :( We had the usual 2.00 am hiccup of the site, guys, it is over now.

2:03 am

Would someone care to clue the sh8?

2:03 am

alright chiquitas and mr. chiquitas, i am going to bed now (1.5 hrs earlier than my usual 130 am!)

2:04 am

mkl, it starts with a part of your underleg that hurts like hell when you bump it against the bedpost... and it is a past tense verb.

2:04 am

great going, kier, sleep well :)

2:05 am

So long, farewell, auf wiedersein, good night...I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

2:06 am

adieu....

2:07 am

Crap. I have all the words around it. It should stick out like a sor thumb. Can't find it though.

2:07 am

Jillibus you with us?

2:08 am

mkl, S + Hi7 (the horse made a sound)

2:09 am

ti 4/8 and 5/18 - a NZ Maori word - wonders will never cease

2:24 am

ok, enable again. All I have left are W words. Hunting them down monkeying brought me Wi5/20, no def found wherever. Best way to clue it is "I wi5 a merry christmas"

2:25 am

LOL sprite

2:26 am

And thnx

2:26 am

Does any of you know what it means, beside being an anagram? I googled it and all I found was it being used as soundword for the sound willowtrees make.

2:30 am

scrabble dic says to express surprise

2:30 am

thanks, will remember that :) fireworks.

2:31 am

Yay sprite. Gee well done. I still have 97 left. Will need now to wait till tomorrow.

wisha One entry found for wisha. Main Entry: wisha Pronunciation: 'wi-sh& Function: interjection Etymology: Irish mhuise, muise, probably alteration of Muire Mary (Jesus' mother) chiefly Irish -- used as an intensive or to express surprise

4:11 am

Good morning Denny - cold, windy, but a nice grid to compensate.

4:12 am

150 down and still 5 more 8s to locate - brighter news is that i spotted the 9 all by my lonesome :D

4:13 am

Very windy and wet here too. Not playing today 'cos got far too much to do around the house. Might come back later this evening. Anyone lost any tiles from their roofs yet? :-)

4:13 am

what does the 9 start with?

4:13 am

de

4:13 am

Roof is intact so far. And I'm not going to investigate any further.

hi sparkly

4:14 am

It's an easy grid today with all of these delicious suffixes.

4:15 am

tx Merk, got it!

4:15 am

biggest issue so far is remembering to use them all on each word i find merk

4:23 am

Taking a quick housework break.

4:28 am

You are exactly right :D I thought that myself several times.

4:29 am

it does make it easier tho merk - i have half the 7s and 8s and the single 9 already

4:39 am

does anyone have all the Gs?

4:40 am

I'm still missing one G

4:40 am

me too sparkly - must b a tricky one i guess

4:41 am

4:44 am

thanks sparkly

4:44 am

got it :D

4:50 am

Babble, your quote by William Styron is very accurate... unfortunately.

4:51 am

Been there. Just can't give up.

4:51 am

yeah i have been there sunny

4:56 am

gotta run - c yas

4:57 am

have a good one, :D

4:59 am

the thing is that no-one else can quite grasp the depths of despair when you feel that the last clod of dirt is being shoveled on top of you... and that's all the sadness i'll give you tonight. :)

5:00 am

Pax vobiscum, sunny!

5:06 am

Hi babblers.

5:06 am

hey, biltong

5:07 am

are we having fun yet? i am hi biltong

5:08 am

lol, not sure yet. Just started!

5:08 am

snit

5:08 am

good morning everyone. Been here for a while, but just got through the first run through. Nice grid!

5:08 am

hi Eva

5:08 am

morning, eva

5:08 am

sunny,09, you still here?

5:09 am

oops first one tonight

5:10 am

hey Biltong :)

5:11 am

sunny, you are welcome to e-mail me. I have similar difficulties. Sometimes it is good to chat to someone who "understands".

5:12 am

I'm back! Hi Biltong and everyone else I missed in the last hour

5:13 am

hi sugar. How are things?

5:13 am

thx Biltong.

5:14 am

yw :)

5:14 am

Good tx Biltong, has your daughter gone back now?

5:16 am

Yes. Unfortunately, it is jut a memory now. She was only here for two weeks. Went back on the 30th Dec already.

5:16 am

Never mind, thats 18 days less to the next visit!

5:17 am

lol, you're right! I might have to go to SA in April to sort out a few things. Here's hoping!

5:18 am

I'm going back in March for about 6-8 weeks, hope I can do without babble for that long! Might have to find an internet cafe..............

5:19 am

Super! Is this your first time going back?

5:20 am

Yes, but I've only been here since November, hunting down docs for a visa

5:22 am

oh, I see. Don't know why, but I thought you'd been here longer. I am sure I'll see you in the chat before you go but, just in case, take care and have a fab time.

5:23 am

tx Biltong, let me know if I can post anything from the Cape for you, or perhaps contact anyone by phone?

5:24 am

Thanks, sugar, I will :)

5:24 am

Does anyone have clues for the top right o's, please?

5:25 am

Although I am sure I won't have to take you up on your kind offer.

5:25 am

ok, down to some serious hunting now.

5:25 am

6:53 am

Is mousey a boy?

6:53 am

Yes, he is.

6:53 am

He can change it to Ingo...that's a boy's name :)

6:54 am

I don't think he knows.

6:54 am

LOL

6:54 am

Most of the junk mail I get assume I'm a man as well

6:55 am

Time to start my day also...........later

6:55 am

hodag, he's your grandson, right?

6:55 am

bye Hodag

6:55 am

Later hodag

6:55 am

Bye hodag---I will spend today chuckling about mousey and inge3---hilarious

6:56 am

He's got a future, that one. :)

6:56 am

yes he is and a very good one I might add.

6:57 am

He's very sweet Hodag and seems extremely bright

6:57 am

He is an adult trapped in a boy's body.

6:59 am

he is all of that,spoken like a true grandma! They have him tutering

7:00 am

There sure are a lot of words with the "ing" suffix--perhaps to honor our 3 Inge's

7:01 am

oops 2nd graders in reading because he has a 4th grade reading levle,he is also a second grader!

7:01 am

Is he even the least bit challenged academically at school? I worry about the bright, gifted kids getting the "special education" that they need but don't often get in schools because of budget constraints or teachers that don't know what to do with these kids.

7:04 am

at times but he works well with it and he is still alittle boy and he acts like one.

7:06 am

gotta go now................bye all

7:06 am

you're right scrabbler... as a guidance counselor and former teacher, our schools don't really handle the extremely gifted students well. My son (the author) survived it, but he certainly presented a problem to his teachers

7:06 am

Bye hodag.

7:06 am

I have many patients that are very very bright, and the tough part is that disconnect between their intellect and their emotional/social development. I have a little guy, age 4, reading at a 3rd grade level, but he is struggling socially

7:07 am

and all he wanted to do was learn.... but when it came to science and stuff--- he often knew more than they did. and yes, they will struggle socially.... we are lucky that he turned out as he did. bye hodag

7:08 am

actually... bye everyone... I need to get to school myself! have fun

7:08 am

Hi Doren--I had similar experiences, and I am a fierce advocate for these kids and parents, and push the parents to be advocates. It really is the other end of the spectrum with "special education" and these bright kid are often neglected, to the detriment of them and society

7:08 am

Bye Dorens

7:08 am

Bye Doren

7:09 am

I have 2 8's so far--anybody find the 9?

7:10 am

7:10 am

7:10 am

I have the 9, want me to clue it?

7:10 am

I have the 9...it's a 6,8,9 combo

7:11 am

Hi ARB & Flosey & Melon

10:00 am

hi lynxxx

erev tov, then. glad I caught you.

Sorry, hello to all. Had to flip laundry and re-fill coffee.

10:00 am

da8 - to the platform add a demanding walk through the country, but change the final vowel

10:00 am

How are you feeling Melon? Stronger, I hope.

10:01 am

da7/52 is the same, but take a vowel from the platform (da4/5)

10:01 am

10:05 am

haz, help me out with the da 7/52 and da 8...i don't understand the clue part of platform

oooooh,

10:05 am

so, what's the fourth one?

10:05 am

sorry, that's 3x gi's

10:05 am

ok

10:06 am

Buttonman do you have da4/5? It's the starting point and is an anagram of the past tense of say.

10:06 am

I'll let you know just as soon as.........lol

10:06 am

i found it

10:06 am

yes, two of them

4 gi's

gi4 - mixed up French novelist in the past?

10:06 am

please share, hurshy

10:07 am

The one I mean comes after the da4/6. It's da plus a verb form of 'to be'

10:07 am

gi4/7 and the 4/6 following have 2 vowels in the middle

10:07 am

rite

10:07 am

got those and the drink

10:08 am

is that ta 7/28 the only T7?

past tense the drink?

Hursh, yes

10:08 am

yes, hurshy

10:08 am

Okay, Buttonman. Now think of a word that means a stiff walk through the countryside. It rhymes with a type of fish and a two-wheeled mode of transport. Add it to the da4/5, BUT change the final vowel for another one.

10:09 am

rats.

10:09 am

Back for my last few words. Perhaps lunch helped.

nobody got my Andre Gi** (mixed up) clue????

10:09 am

I had the word, but got your clue, melon.

10:11 am

oh, i just realized that the 6/7 combo are the only ta's i have!

10:12 am

stick an A in the te5/10 babblet, blood

10:12 am

and can you clue whatever other ta6 you have?

10:13 am

ta6.21 is a common dip

10:13 am

thanks hurshy...i don't have the other one yet...i just didn't want to be too greedy...sorry.

10:14 am

ah, ok, i had no idea that was a dip, but, the points helped, lol

10:14 am

i thought it was a tropical island mentioned in "kokomo"

10:14 am

i have reached the dreaded 14!!

10:14 am

it may be but I buy it at the Deli !

ta 6/21 - ta + another word for rear or back(***d), change d to vowel, def - a paste made of ground sesame seeds

10:16 am

i guess i just thought tropical island because it's a combo of 2 of them - the latter being the place they tested atom bomb

Done. Wasn't too bad, a lot of them build off one another.

10:19 am

10:37 am

alt sp of da7, african garment

if it's from a da4, i'lll take that clue instead

10:37 am

da8 - if you have the da4/5 - small platform, add a stiff walk through the countryside, but change the final vowel. The stiff walk rhymes with a two-wheeled vehicle.

10:38 am

anyone got any weird non-plural W5's?

10:38 am

only W5 i have is to make something less narrow

ty

10:39 am

hmm, yeah, have that one eva

Wi 4/9, add a vowel

10:39 am

waterways?

10:39 am

Duh, that's a plural . .

10:39 am

10:41 am

10:42 am

ha6/27 - Scots version of possession

10:42 am

10:43 am

Glad it helped, sugar.

10:45 am

oh botheration, why must they be S and T, so numerous

10:47 am

10:47 am

2 si words, or 3?

10:47 am

is alt sp of the 7 button

2

10:48 am

Buttonman - da7/52 - add a vowel to make it da8. Add it to the beginning of the word

10:48 am

sigh.

button, build on de six above it

10:49 am

well, i think i either need an sh5 or an sa5

10:49 am

the sa5's i have are plurals

6 sh 5's

10:50 am

you can plural THAT one??? good golly.

10:50 am

sa5 - they are all plural - even the homonym for being in right mind

10:50 am

And even plural for past tense of 'speak'

10:50 am

and even he sa4, she sa4!

10:51 am

yeah that is so wacky

10:51 am

so that leaves a T4/5

10:52 am

aha, got it!

10:52 am

HAZ...i tried both vowels and the grid will not take it

10:52 am

Plural brunus edwardii?

10:53 am

it was the one that rhymes with the cowardly lion actor, actually

10:53 am

Buttonman - da4/5 IS the small platform. da plus I am , you are , he **.

10:54 am

Then add the ending to make it da8. All you are doing is adding one vowel to the da7.

sorry i just cannot se the de5/16 - de6/27....and need a clue

10:57 am

de5/16 - I will de5/16 to give you a clue. It's the gerund ending rearranged

de 6 - de + red stop s***, plural

ty haz! : )

10:58 am

You're welcome!

11:21 am

Hi nan

We actually had a little snow Cyber, but nothing like that. I'm watching it melt. Hope you don't need to leave the house.

Mag, this is easier, ka 4/9 & kh 5/22 are the same.

11:23 am

11:23 am

Lol, you're mis-type.

In the UK we have had terriblewind/rain...a tanker has sunk,driver killed by a tree in his car window and lots of storm damage everywhere

11:24 am

sounds bad, cait -- we will probably just have lots of fender benders today.

Yuck. We had all our fender benders Monday. Lotsa ice. No storms thankfully. Poor guy, had to be some strong wind.

11:26 am

You all cope with the snow better than the UK ..we just grind to a halt as soon as we have any!!!

No, it's like that in Texas. People wig out when ice or heavy rain comes. They dont' understand the concept of - don't go out unless you have to, drive slow. We hardly ever get snow, let alone snow storms.

11:29 am

are there any gn words?

Portland was at a stand-still over the past 2 days over the 5 inches of snow we got Tuesday morning.

11:29 am

7:38 pm

Hi Ping

yeah, they do seem to be a bit weird. strange format too for the show itself...takes getting used to

7:38 pm

did you make that cool icon scrabbler?

Hello everyone, and hi Leigh.

7:39 pm

da 8 and sh 8 please

7:39 pm

No, I found it on Google images

7:39 pm

what's with the talking to the camera every now and then?

oh man...I love the office! I got my husband season 1 & 2 for Christmas and for the past several nights we've been watching all of them

supposed to be like a "reality" show

7:39 pm

feather, i tried it out on netflix and didn't get it either - it might be because i'm a boss and the boss is an idiot - i don't get dilbert either

7:40 pm

scrabbler, i like it

7:40 pm

That is how the show is done---a documentary set-up, and it is modeled after a hit show in the UK with the same name

7:40 pm

button-sh8-kids climbing trees built on part of the leg

7:40 pm

don't have the da8 either

7:40 pm

Hi everyone! clue for my last word please...in7 after the in7 compose

7:41 pm

EVA, i don get the sh 8 clue

7:42 pm

i'm basically just killing time waiting for the scrubs musical

7:42 pm

I love Dilbert too. I guess you have to have a boss named Richard Head to understand the lunacy of a toxic work environment and a boss that is an idiot

7:42 pm

noo.....seriously, that's your bosses' name?

7:42 pm

da8 is take the podium + not bye + **ss the girls and make them cry

7:43 pm

LOL Scrabbler!

Jim tortures Dwight repeatedly. Dwight is the funniest part of the show!

7:49 pm

7:49 pm

8:23 pm

nutster fried her brains today first at training at work, then on her class work....nut has no brain power left

8:24 pm

oh no, fried brains! did you learn anything?

8:25 pm

yeah i think, only i fear it might be mingling together, i need a firewall or something.

8:25 pm

nah, just some time to properly download and execute the information

8:26 pm

i'm hoping the training today is a good sign, but i dare not be hopeful.

8:26 pm

what class are you taking?

8:27 pm

what kind of training?

8:28 pm

training was for i'm not exactly sure what

hi all. oh, my 235 words, 3.5 hours left and I need to take my niece shoe shopping...do you think I can do it?

8:28 pm

class is in security and we were discussing the USA PATRIOT act

8:28 pm

Hi autumn, sure you can! we'll help.

8:29 pm

ha + Mr. ** (talking horse)

8:29 pm

h+ lemon***

8:30 pm

ha6 sounds like something you'd do in the fields with the product to feed horses and cows.

8:30 pm

Patriot act huh...sounds like it could be an interesting discussion

8:30 pm

thanks!!!!

8:31 pm

could be dawg, depends on those discussing it.

8:31 pm

Better late than not at all! I found good ole Fritz for my icon.

8:32 pm

nice fritz inge

8:32 pm

what's the theme, inge?

8:32 pm

i'm afraid i'd be one of those throwing in jabs about big brother

8:32 pm

today's theme is historical figures

8:32 pm

favorite historical figures Ping

8:33 pm

okay, thanks

8:33 pm

we covered that, but there was disagreement about it affecting civil liberties

8:33 pm

Any British babblers here? Did they all get blown away?

8:33 pm

i'm sure it got heated

8:34 pm

hello babblers and babbletttes!

8:34 pm

and i would be the one arguing that the freedom you preserve outweighs the privacy you give up.

8:34 pm

hi Fran!

8:34 pm

Hi Frannie

8:34 pm

hi abe!

hi Fran

8:34 pm

hi lbd! hi autumn!

8:34 pm

ahhh, what price freedom. it's a tough and touchy subject for sure

8:35 pm

it is, but very interesting

8:35 pm

hello fran!

8:35 pm

abe, just read your profile, you should ask LeslieAnn how she liked Maui, that's where she went.

8:35 pm

i bet it made the time fly bye

8:35 pm

hi ping!

8:35 pm

heck no!

8:36 pm

no?

8:36 pm

Fran- Oooh, great id4. I will be sure to! thanks :)

8:36 pm

personally, i would honeymoon in Florence, Italy

8:37 pm

that was at home...dragged out, been forever since i had to compose something with a point. i just come in here and type nonsense.

8:37 pm

i like rome

8:37 pm

What time of year, Fran?

8:37 pm

Nut, and you still make sense here! :-)

8:38 pm

i've been there in July and February for business trips, July can get hot, February was just cool.

8:38 pm

tx dawg! *collapses in chair* i'm in culture shock

8:38 pm

that's a fine destination for a business trip!

8:38 pm

there's probably a more ideal time to visit, but my trips were dictated by business needs.

8:38 pm

Hi, all

8:39 pm

Hi Pam

8:39 pm

yeah ping, it was a dream job for sure.

8:39 pm

hi pam!

8:39 pm

I'm fine with being hot...i want to be someplace where i can explore. Hi Pam

8:39 pm

hi pam!

8:39 pm

do you plan to return to it one day?

8:39 pm

Do you want to leave the continent Abe?

8:39 pm

hi, lbd,fran, ping, abe, and all

8:39 pm

If I use licketys page to put the words on, do I then have to transfer them to the bable site? PLEASE say no

8:40 pm

i don't think so Ping, my new dream job is taking care of my kids, wouldn't want to be away from them that long.

8:40 pm

Alis, no...but yes, you do have to type the words in both places. at least in babble if you want to make the points

8:40 pm

abe, Florence is just filled with things to do and explore

8:40 pm

lbdawger- sure! my bf has never left the time zone, he's up for anything!

8:40 pm

egads

8:41 pm

..and here I thought I had found a shortcut...

8:41 pm

lots of hiking and stuff to do in Montana. canada is beautiful too or alaska. or you could do the wine country

8:41 pm

Fran- thanks for the suggestion! i'll do some research

8:41 pm

abe, New Zealand is also a great destination, i haven't been, but my friends went for their honeymoon a few years ago and absolutely loved it.

8:41 pm

a truly important job, fran, for sure

8:42 pm

Fran- I had friends who did that too- a three week holiday

8:42 pm

hi

8:42 pm

you can get more info from angb about new zealand, she babbles from there.

8:42 pm

hi lavinia

8:42 pm

in7,7, and 8 please

8:42 pm

hi, lavinia

8:42 pm

I would like to explore parts of Canada as well. and i'm sure I could get lots of advice from fellow babblers

8:42 pm

i don't know how it is now, but the exchange rate was great at the time so they didn't feel like they were spending too much money.

8:43 pm

in7, past tense of the in6

8:43 pm

in + ed4/5 + vowel

8:43 pm

in7 (second one) in + what you do to proof a paper + first vowel

8:44 pm

abe, i would venture to say you could get info on any destination you wanted from your fellow babblers!

8:44 pm

in + ed4/5 + past tense

8:44 pm

thanks for the help

8:44 pm

Well, I enjoy all these travel suggestions. Will make them the topic of my dreams. Good night all

8:44 pm

night Inge

8:44 pm

sh8?

8:44 pm

Fran- that's what i'm counting on!

8:44 pm

good night, inge

8:45 pm

goodnight Inge

8:45 pm

night inge!

8:45 pm

good night inge

8:45 pm

don't do alaska in july or august...that's mosquito season

8:45 pm

lbd, the rest of the year the mosquitoes are frozen, right? :-)

8:45 pm

lbdawger- i never heard of that, but I am a mosquito magnet so i will take your advice

8:46 pm

it's true, Frannie! since the long dark keeps things on the cool side, the pests don't hatch til late june and all thru august.

i think everyone, at some point in their life should drive across the country, from coast to coast, taking a northern route one way and a southern route the other

8:47 pm

Good evening all. Today's grid is a 'gerund grid'. Here's a clue story: Had to wa4/9 the cat (or maybe the kh4/9?) today. He arrived home covered in sh4/5, like he'd been wa6/39 in mud. He tried to sn5/18 past me and was sw8/75 his claws as I tried to clean him. So, deciding it was a 2-man job, I wa6/33 for Paul to come home from work. My icon shows Paul wa7/56 the cat, whose eyes are wi4/9. He's obviously wi7/56 he hadn't fallen into the muddy pond (or whatever it was) and ha6/27 the water and pretty te4/5 off!

8:47 pm

hi, jac

8:47 pm

autumn, that's something i would love to do having lived on islands my whole life!

8:47 pm

autumn- we did that with my family when i was 9 and it was AMAZING

8:47 pm

good clues Jac!

8:47 pm

hi jac!

8:48 pm

very clever jac!

8:48 pm

clue for the sh8 please?

8:48 pm

thanks Jac :)

8:48 pm

nice story, jac!!!!!!!

8:48 pm

stephie, went up a tree or pole

8:48 pm

Abe, does your honey like the outdoors, hiking and camping and roughing it?

8:49 pm

sh8 is probably what my cat did up a tree or fence and then the 80mph winds blew him down into the mid.

8:49 pm

sh 8- part of the leg + anagram of d 4/4, eat in a restuarant

8:49 pm

*mud

8:49 pm

hi jacula!

8:49 pm

Jacula that story was a masterpiece!

8:49 pm

stephie, if you have the hi7.36 just add an s at the front

8:49 pm

8:50 pm

lbd- it depends, he's up a certain amount of roughing it, but he also has an ' inner couch potato'

8:50 pm

thanks, got it!

8:50 pm

hi feather

8:51 pm

8:51 pm

8:52 pm

Glad you liked the story. As you can see from my icon, it's a true story. Hope it helped you all find a few more words.

8:52 pm

8:52 pm

lbd- he's fine laying on a beach. i need hiking, swimming, etc...I have several friends who have vacationed in Hawaii and loved it

I"ve been driving in the pitiful litle bit of snow we have here

8:56 pm

jac, there's a dispute over his will, it was written before he married his last wife and she's contesting it.

8:56 pm

Now I can go finish watching the Lightning play. Unless it

8:56 pm

8:56 pm

'Night lbd. Enjoy the programme. Just make sure any talking birds aren't listening. (You heard about my Mum's pink grass parakeets?)

8:56 pm

the roads are starting to get a big dicey

8:56 pm

it's already over. Fingers keep hitting wrong key, Sorry

8:57 pm

they were better going home... Katonah was pretty bad. How have you been??

8:57 pm

Fran - Oh dear! Does one wife think he wants cremation and the other burial then? Otherwise, why would his will prevent his final rest?

8:57 pm

ok. i'm going to start subbing in ossining and tarrytown soon

8:57 pm

not sure of all the details, but his youngest son is not included in the will and i guess the burial details are up in the air because of that.

8:58 pm

and school starts soon, yuck.

8:58 pm

Nice!! We will have to meet for lunch soon! I owe you and your Abe a dinner and a psychology book!

8:58 pm

Fran - That seems rather odd. Mind you, he was an odd man...

8:58 pm

lol. sounds like a plan

8:58 pm

9:00 pm

Hi Kristin

9:00 pm

sw8/75 - there are two. One is a noise or an action (usually a shhh sound or to do with water) the other is often found ,in its sw5/20 form, with 'buckling' at the end.

9:00 pm

hi hi abe, swviola and others!

9:01 pm

I assume Fran means dirty diaper.

9:01 pm

Hi kristinc.

9:02 pm

y/w Ping.

9:02 pm

9:02 pm

you are awesome, Abe...I have three already, but thanks!

9:03 pm

those tests are v. annoying

9:03 pm

abe - te + 2 personal pronouns + consonant (think of the letter on the hat the class stoopid once had to wear).

9:04 pm

*stupid. Sorry about that. I was listening to an Alice Cooper track.

9:04 pm

I keep hearing that...I am freaking about the two CLEP tests I have to take....algebra was in the ancient past for me!! :-)

9:04 pm

evening -- I have 3 left in7/32 and in8/50 and the last in5/12 -- any help tonight pls ty

9:04 pm

9:05 pm

y/w, abe.

9:05 pm

sw- i have to take algebra too! we should make a study group for that

9:05 pm

sw- are you on AIM? abe wants to know

9:05 pm

I'm cr*p at maths but I could do algebra. Not sure I could now, though; it was a loooong time ago.

9:06 pm

the last in 5 - past tense of a motel?

9:06 pm

I haven't logged on to AIM for fear of being seen by my ex. For Abe, though, I would risk it! ;-)

9:06 pm

I'm working as a math tutor, which has served as a "reawakening" to my brain. I need lots of pracitce though, to remove the cobwebs

9:07 pm

I would be all about an algebra study group...do you have to do a science as well?

9:07 pm

YES!!!!!

9:07 pm

viola - there's always MSN Messenger, Windows Messenger or Yahoo for talk things.

9:07 pm

in7 - in + ed4/5 + vowel. in8 - in + ed4/5 + past tense ending.

9:07 pm

StephieC -- that one eluded me, now only the in7/32 and in8/50 to go

9:07 pm

9:08 pm

9:08 pm

9:09 pm

viola - I'd use that then.

9:09 pm

Well done, abe!

9:09 pm

Jacula and StephieC -- thx, doing the fireworks

9:09 pm

I had no idea there were online jigsaw puzzles!

9:15 pm

hello everyone!

9:15 pm

hi reese's!

9:16 pm

nice, throw, jac!

9:16 pm

online jigsaw puzzles!

9:16 pm

what's gerund form?

9:16 pm

Hi Reese's. KristinC- they are fun, but v. time consuming

9:16 pm

hi reeses!

9:16 pm

where can you find them?

9:16 pm

stephie, add the "action" suffix that most of the long words use

9:16 pm

Ping- when he jigsaws, i can babble guilt-free (not that I ever let guilt stand in my way)

9:16 pm

-ing

9:16 pm

I can imagine! I only have time for one addiction. But...if I could get my husband hooked on jigs then I'd have more time to babble :)

whers online jigsaw puzzles?

9:17 pm

hey hursh!

9:17 pm

the website is jigzone.com

9:17 pm

hey.

yo peeps!

9:17 pm

as it is right now, my cats are destroying the puzzle we started over the holiday...that seems much cleaner! :)

9:18 pm

abe - Oh, I see. I tried those on-line jigsaws. I prefer to do real ones though. I like the funny Jan Van Haasteren puzzles best and WASGIJ? puzzles (where the pic on the box shows the people who are seeing something, but the puzzle is what they are seeing and so not pictured on the box).

9:18 pm

kh5?

9:18 pm

9:21 pm

well done minski!

9:21 pm

well done Minski

9:21 pm

yeah minski

9:21 pm

gotta go see you later

9:22 pm

9:23 pm

thanks Jacula!

9:23 pm

the first te5/12 please?

9:24 pm

Hursh - I've just bought myself that big board with opening flaps to hold your sorted jigsaw pieces. It was about £70 originally, but was being offered for about £20 plus 4 free jigsaws just before Xmas. So I bought it. It's not worth the original price!

9:24 pm

te + vowel + freudian self

9:25 pm

my dad's done all sorts of crazy ones. all red, non-smooth edges... if you really are into puzzles in a major way you might want to look into getting a Stave puzzle. they're hand carved wooden jigsaw puzzles. very expensive but very cool.

9:25 pm

Has anyone tried any of those 3D jigsaws?

9:25 pm

yeah, they're really not that hard jac

9:25 pm

You know, Tower of London, Houses of Parliament, World globe etc.

9:25 pm

yeah, I did a mystery 3-D one once...it didn't seem too hard but I

9:25 pm

I'm not sure if it was intended to be or not

9:26 pm

sorry...excited pinkie finger!

9:26 pm

abe, i thought freudian self was ego. i can't make it work

9:26 pm

(www.stave.com if you're interested - you should just take a look at any rate, they are amazing)

9:27 pm

are all the k words crazy? I only have 2!

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

Thanks, hursh. I will take a look.

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

i'm missing half the k's kristin and the ones i have are mostly crazy

9:29 pm

9:29 pm

9:32 pm

ta6 & 7 are the tapeworms, doxylover.

9:32 pm

I think of them as the Babble tapeworms, since I don't hear the word anywhere else.

9:33 pm

jac...are you or someone else bathing your cat perchance? :)

9:33 pm

I hate those tapeworm words! I can never remember them :( (okay...done whining)

9:34 pm

Kristinc - That's Paul wa7/56 the cat. My arms aren't THAT hairy!

9:34 pm

i feel the same, kristin

9:34 pm

3 left and they're all in words

9:35 pm

I said or someone else...just to get me off the hook jac :) now THAT looks like a good time!

9:35 pm

thx jac. had to look that one up

9:35 pm

i'm missing 2 KH words, the one i have sounds like the animal you are discussing

9:35 pm

okay ping, if I get a sudden memory of them, I'll hollar

9:35 pm

tapeworm word = ta6/18 - first three letter are a British breakfast beverage with 2nd & 3rd vowels reversed + actress Miss Farrow (one-time wife of Woody Allen) with a different initial letter.

9:36 pm

9:36 pm

9:39 pm

t + double vowel + picture **

9:39 pm

first two in's please?

9:39 pm

ka4/9 = ka + former British princess. ka4/8 = ka + not out. ka5.18 = plural of the former. kh5/22 sounds like a container for tea (or a golf buddy). kh4.9 - sound like a feline. kh4/9 - sounds like a lover's osculation. ki4/8 - you fly it in windy weather. ki5/20 - same as before but past tense. ki6.36 - active tense of the windy flyer. kr4/8 - Mr. Kringle.

9:40 pm

Still need the TE5/12 and TE6/21. Any help appreciated. Please and thank you...

9:44 pm

i had lots of trouble with this one too! it's te + another word for me + picture **. I told you the wrong double vowel, sorry!

9:44 pm

i'm missing one of the NI 4 words, not the number or the evening

9:44 pm

thanks jac! typical babble word...I just wasn't going the right way

9:45 pm

Kenny - there are 2 sets of te5/12 and 6/21s.

9:45 pm

9:45 pm

oops

9:45 pm

9:45 pm

there are only two ni4/4

I have the TE+abbreviation for the state housing the Colts football team and its plural. It's the other one I'm losing sleep over.

9:46 pm

ping- change the last vowel in the one that rhymes with the ocean wave

9:46 pm

it's an NI 4/5

9:46 pm

ni + princess **

9:46 pm

thanks, abe, that is the one

9:46 pm

thanks, steph

9:47 pm

kenny...take the one you have, get rid of the n and double the vowel with the dot

9:47 pm

Kenny te + 2 vowels that are a personal pronoun + the class thicko's initial on his conical hat.

9:47 pm

Then plural.

9:47 pm

te + third vowel (twice) + fourth letter

9:47 pm

Thanks kristin and jac, you saved my sanity! FIREWORDS

9:47 pm

9:50 pm

9:50 pm

babble time still blows my mind!

9:50 pm

well, world time I suppose too :)

9:50 pm

goodnight/ morning to all :)

9:51 pm

bye abe

9:52 pm

Kristin What I can't get over are the time differences in the USA - one country

9:53 pm

Ang - No. Had lots of disturbed nights due to very frequent hot flushes (flashes). Slep about 12 hours straight last night by virtue of consuming a whole bottle of wine. Not tired now. Anyway, Other Half went to bed at about 8:45pm with a headache. He has to be up soon, and it's his birthday. Didn't want to disturb him, but would like to greet him when he gets up.

9:53 pm

ang...and then we have this wonderful thing called daylight savings time where some of us are an hour ahead/behind even more than normal depending on winter/summer and then some states choose not to recognize it...it's a royal mess! :)

what amazes me ang, are two things: the number of time zones in Russia, and the fact that China has only 1 time zone. lol

9:54 pm

That's right I remember now. LOL life gets rather disorganised during these times. Gone are those normal sleeping patterns

9:54 pm

How many time zones in Russia?

11 ang... the continental US has only 4

9:55 pm

The Chinese do nothing for comfort so it doesn't surprise me.

9:55 pm

I have a time zone map somewhere in my Babble icons file.

9:55 pm

11!!!! That is amazing -

lol

well, the country dstretches from poland to korea... it's soooo long

9:56 pm

Though my Chinese partner does not follow that rule!

9:56 pm

Too true smooth

9:56 pm

I wish there was a time zone map associated with babble icons or with the site

9:56 pm

You have been there smooth? I would love to go

9:56 pm

ri 5 please?

I spent 3 months in russia, ang... amazing country

9:57 pm

They should add the local time with the babble time that would be interesting (and probably confusing)

9:57 pm

What were you doing there smooth - vacation or work?

9:57 pm

Okay, time is running short, and I am running in circles. Can anyone please help me with the da8, 9 and the de8 please? Thanks. :)

well... those three months were split into 3 different trips... 1st for school... 2nd for freinds, 3rd for a girl. lol

9:58 pm

got the ri, never mind

9:58 pm

ri5/12 is a Hindu word for a sage or a poet.

9:58 pm

Have you the 7 Jee? start it with an extra i after the first to letters

9:58 pm

So that it starts with a platform you speak from

9:59 pm

I've put the time zone map on my icon but it doesn't make much sense all squashed up and with the writing unreadable.

9:59 pm

thank you, jac!

9:59 pm

I have the da7/44. Is that the one Ang?

actually, ang, I left out part of russia... etends from poland to alaska

9:59 pm

makes for a pretty icon jac!

9:59 pm

No the 7/52

*extends*

10:00 pm

okay, still working on the 7/52...I will keep trying...thanks

10:01 pm

OK da 8/70 - platform + to going tramping but change last vowel to the next one

10:01 pm

Then for the da 7/52 leave out the second vowel in the 8

10:02 pm

For anyone else who hasn't got the ri5 yet - think Beatles' Indian guru, the Mahari*** Yogi.

10:02 pm

thanks Ang...I will work on it....

10:02 pm

Odd words Jee

10:03 pm

thanks Jacula

10:03 pm

Thnx Jac - have saved the map to file.

10:03 pm

glad to hear they are odd Ang...otherwise they would jump out better for me.

10:04 pm

I'm not getting those da clues I hate to confess

10:04 pm

Hope you can make some sense of the map, Ang.

10:04 pm

I have the platform word

Good evening anyone have a clue for da8/70?

10:05 pm

Have you the ti 4/8?

10:05 pm

Kris that was for you?

10:05 pm

da8/70 and 7/52 are alternative spellings for a colourful over garment worn by African men.

10:05 pm

found the da7 and 8, working on the nine, assuming it is plural

10:05 pm

Marc it has been clued

10:05 pm

it's not plural, is it?

10:05 pm

yes, I have the ti4/8

10:06 pm

okay...got it!

10:06 pm

Good evening all!

10:06 pm

platform + ti 4/8 change but change the first letter to the 8th letter in alpha

10:06 pm

Jee - the nine is a gerund form

10:06 pm

da8/70 = da** (a platform for a speaker or a coffin) + a serious walking trip with a personal pronoun vowel at the end rather than an 'e'..

10:07 pm

thanks foks!

Thanks Jacula got the 7 and am looking for the 8.

10:07 pm

hey stranger gw! :)

10:07 pm

Hi woulf

10:07 pm

Hi wolfie!

10:08 pm

not so much a stranger (most folks think I am strange enough ;D ) as a victim of the same cold that has been hitting lots of others

10:08 pm

marc - a hint for the 8. da + 'exists' is the start.

10:09 pm

Hi Grey! I am glad to see you again! Working on the gerund...doesn't seem to be flowing yet.

10:09 pm

I'm the evening stranger...been more on during the day so it's been awhile :)

10:09 pm

Oh:(( You've had that nasty bug too, then Wolfie? Have the kids been free of it?

10:10 pm

last 2. DE5,6 before the de+memo

10:10 pm

This cold was a nasty one -- I never had a fever but it sapped my energy to the point that I lost almost an entire week from work And to make it worse, the whole family got it at the same time!

10:11 pm

oh, guess I am not finding da9 because there isn't one. Back to work on the de words.

10:11 pm

I will de 5/16 to give you a clue, but only if you ask politely

10:11 pm

It's a de 9 Jee

10:11 pm

Thankfully, I am almost fully recovered, as are the kids, Kirsten is still afflicted but fighting the good fight

10:11 pm

doxy - I might stoop low enough from my high perch to d5/16 to give you a clue. Think what a king or queen does and then change the intial 'r' to a 'd'.

10:12 pm

thank you, thank you, thank you. Fireworks

10:12 pm

okay, let's talk about that de8 please?

10:12 pm

Jee - the 9 word is a 'de'. The cops might say they are de9/72 a criminal for questioning.

10:13 pm

de+ta4/4 and then the typical endings

10:13 pm

Yay doxy

10:13 pm

de8 is the past tense, Jee.

10:13 pm

thanks jacula...why couldn't I SEEE that?

10:13 pm

Well done, Doxy!

10:13 pm

well done doxy!

10:13 pm

Yayyyy for doxy!!

10:14 pm

Wow that was a lot of words together! Thanks everyone for your help!

10:14 pm

y/w, Jee.

10:14 pm

Is anyone else suffering from lag? I am getting about a 2 second delay between hitting enter and seeing my post

10:15 pm

Wolfie - sorry to hear you have all been ill. It's a nasty one ; hangs around for 4/5 weeks. Did you get Christmas free of it?

10:15 pm

I am just suffering from brain lag, but it is longer than 2 seconds I think.

10:15 pm

Not now (re the lag) but I was about 7pm UK time, Wolfie.

10:15 pm

Xmas was free of illness and psychodrama, Jac

10:15 pm

no lag here at the moment but happens quite often at other times

10:16 pm

LOL, Jee

10:16 pm

Glad to hear it, Wolfie!

10:17 pm

first di6 anyone?

10:17 pm

not living

10:18 pm

kristinc - it has to do with the steel industry but sounds like what you are doing when you are drawing your last breath.

10:18 pm

I am di 6/27 to tell you kristin but then I will have to kill you

10:18 pm

di + 2nd vowel + our favorite end***

10:18 pm

thanks folks!

10:18 pm

Jacula, thanks for your gerund story earlier....I just finally had time to look at it...Helped me with the sh8 word.

10:18 pm

So what is the def for the second wi5/20? I just got it by monkey and of course the dictionary has no def for it

10:19 pm

10:19 pm

10:20 pm

oooooh. sorry to hear about it. bet the cat hated every minute of it.

10:20 pm

I'm off for now. Have been sick all day and still not well. Can finally keep some crackers down though.

10:20 pm

Someone looked it up - wi 5 means surprise

what is the alternative spelling for da 7/52 that is african garb?

10:20 pm

see ya doxy - hope you feel better soon

10:20 pm

feel better doxy and goodnight

10:20 pm

is there much difference between the wi 5/20 words?

10:20 pm

{{*doxy*}}

10:21 pm

da 8 - add the 3rd vowel after the first two letters. ADHD

10:21 pm

Oh c'mon, ADHD, we'll do it together --- I have 90 to go here!

10:21 pm

Hi all I still have 160 left

10:21 pm

Hi Tiny!

10:22 pm

go tiny go! 50 to go here!

10:22 pm

Hi Tiny

10:22 pm

wi5/20, Wolfie is a Dublin term. A sort of sighing sound before such statements as: imilar to Yerra, but favoured by the older generation Wi***, what good's money without health Wi***, I'll be as right as rain in no time

r u a brandie newbie too?

10:22 pm

Hi Kristinc

10:22 pm

Thanks for the def, Jac

10:22 pm

hi there tiny!

10:23 pm

Not new, ADHD, just much shorter on free time than I used to be

10:24 pm

can anyone clue me in on ini** 5/12?

10:24 pm

Irish exclamation of some kind of surprise, Wolfie.

10:24 pm

in5.12 is a new, innovaive type of music.

aha well i'm brandie new here and i'm still trying to get the hang of it... fun fun fun

10:25 pm

in 5/21 What that call that motor race in the states for short. The in 5000 or something

10:25 pm

Think West In***s.

10:25 pm

*5/12

it would be great if we could have a private website to post clues that don't disappear so fast in the chat, so we could check the clues any time we have time.

10:26 pm

ADHD - you'll get there. You'll become a multi-tasker like the rest of us -

10:26 pm

adhd - we do! It's at Babblers' Anonymous.

10:26 pm

How about wi7/56, very last one? Be most grateful.

10:26 pm

It is great fun, ADHD -- don't worry, you'll be a master gridhunter in no time

10:26 pm

Here's wi 7/56 you a merry christmas

sorry ang... i don't understand your clue. add the third vowel ...?

10:27 pm

And ADHD is a great skill to have with your new babble addiction

10:27 pm

However, we use that for chatting, not clueing. You can bring the whole chatlog back at your leisure by clicking on the icon on far right at the top of this, should you wish.

AEIOU Third vowel is I

10:27 pm

wi***** you a happy birthday

10:28 pm

ADHD - add the third vowel of the 5 vowels available - as a third letter

10:28 pm

Hi Cyborg

10:28 pm

ADHD - we never add 3rd letters here in the chatlog unless time is short and things are getting deperate.

10:28 pm

Of course -- thanks so much, my first finish.

10:28 pm

*desperate.

10:28 pm

Fireworks SC? Yay welldone

10:29 pm

Well done, SC!

10:29 pm

well done SC!

Hi Angb :))

10:29 pm

Yayyyyyyy for SC!!

10:29 pm

Cyborg haven't seen you for a while

got that ang and then what? that's only 3 letters.

The puzzles have been easy, so only here for one hour a day LOL

10:30 pm

arg! I just spent about 5 minutes looking for the silly rh5!

i've forgotten what i'm supposed to be looking for now LOL

10:31 pm

That's the problem with being ADHD, I guess.

yep... at this time of night the drugs are long worn off

10:32 pm

OK ADHD - the da 8/ 70 - two words added together. platform (starts with those 3) + another word for tramp. Then change the last letter from the second vowel to the third vowel

10:33 pm

Kristinc - had you asked, I would have sung to you... mud, mud, glorious mud. Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood. Then I'd have told you they kill more people per annum than crocs or lions ever do.

10:34 pm

hmm...well a new factoid at least right?

AngB I have been here every day beavering away at the puzzles, I am now 11 points from the top score, this puzzles is a toughie and may take me to the top, how you doing with it, need any clues for the biggies?

10:34 pm

Yup!

10:35 pm

first ta6 please?

just one more quest ang (don't kill me)... tramp as in slut or tramp as in trample

ta6 is like a south pacific island but with an n instead of the t

10:38 pm

ADHD -- you are never in danger of being killed here... there are few enough language lovers as it is... however eventually you will be slapped with a fish :-D

10:38 pm

Wolfie - first ta6 is the Babble tapeworm. 1st 2 letters an anagram of a British breakfast drink then add actress Miss Farrow with her initial changed to the one after it in the alphabet.

10:39 pm

Thanks Jac -- that I have not been playing in a while is definitely showing

10:39 pm

Wolfie - you forgot to tell ADHD that concussion from frozen fish is also a possibility.

10:39 pm

okay, my monkeys have gone on strike...the fist sa5 please?

10:39 pm

y/w, Wolfie.

Cyborg.. i'll take any clues you've got id 7 & 8; ig 6 & 7 to start

10:40 pm

hey ya'll

10:40 pm

kristinc - plural of the sa4.5 before it.

what kind of fish? flounder? tuna?

1st sa5 is an anagram of the 2nd sa5

haddock

10:41 pm

get out! no way! thanks!

10:41 pm

Kipper, trout, cod, haddock.. who knows what we've got in our freezers, ADHD?

FROZEN NOT FRESH FISH.. OUCH

10:42 pm

id 7 & 8 are declensions (right word?) of id 6. ig 6&7 have to do with fire.

10:42 pm

rotten fish if it is a plural (so embarassed)

id7/36 notion + Father T**

10:42 pm

No one has ever had a fresh or forzen blue whale chucked at them... yet.:)

ADHD which country are you from?

10:44 pm

*frozen. And, yes, before anyone says it, I do know a whale is a mammal and not a fish.
