I think rottage should be a word.

1:20 am

and hi kier :)

1:21 am

I tried it to make sure :D

1:21 am

and I think pittage should be one... the act of pitting fruit

me too

1:21 am

combination of the two works, though

whoo - my monkeys are producing tonite!

1:21 am

i think pitter should be a word, too

1:21 am

like cherry pitter, no?

the pitter patter of little feet

in that case hugabugs, blowing one's nose ought to be. . .

snottage!

LOL

1:22 am

yay melon :)

1:22 am

pitter patter?

1:22 am

oh i have had major snottage at my house today, as well as diarrheage. and then tonsill scab stench and myself with flu!

1:22 am

I know pitter patter of little feet. Tolkien?

used to say that of our little kids... do you hear the pitter patter of little feet (when they would be running around in "feeted" pajamas)

1:23 am

Ifrane. it's a city of your 10,000 people in the MIddle-Atlas mountains. A resort town that is busy in the summer and holidays and dead in the winter.

The AP reported this... Spanish police arrested a Moroccan suspected of belonging to an al-Qaida-linked group that allegedly recruited people to commit suicide attacks in Iraq, the Interior Ministry said Monday.

3:03 am

andree -- little buck-toothed critter, also a brand of mobility aid in oz

3:11 am

hi Haz

3:12 am

Hello sprite - nice to see you!

3:14 am

you too :)

3:14 am

It looks like a nice grid - some of the words have been in very recently. That's when you start to feel all grids merge together...

3:17 am

it is true, lots of repeats lately. But it is just a matter of time until we are trapped by a grid that has little or no common words :)

3:19 am

Anwyay, not complaining about this grid so far, lots of nice sequences going.

3:19 am

it is so rewarding, having an R, S and D there :D

3:21 am

what's the significance of r s and d?

3:21 am

lots of word sequences with verb, 3rd person singular and past tense for instance

3:21 am

You can make things again (re) make plurals or present tenses (s), make past tenses (d)

3:22 am

oh! syntax! I thought they might be initials or something.

3:23 am

lol, no, I meant rewarding in babble-sense

3:23 am

Wot, no volcano today?!

3:24 am

sadly missing

3:25 am

It was one you could rely on, can't enen trust volcanos nowadays *pout*

3:26 am

ahhh lizmac... hang in there, it will be back very soon!

3:27 am

'spose...grmphh

3:28 am

hi all.

3:28 am

hey kanga

3:28 am

how's it going, sprite?

3:30 am

just back from therapist - kinda shaky and scared of everything for no reason whatsoever, but otherwise ok. Thanks for asking :) How are you doing?

3:30 am

really nice day, sprite. feeling very mellow.

3:30 am

naturally mellow, that is.

3:31 am

3:53 am

Hi Eva

3:53 am

(hug) sprite, how was today?

3:53 am

hi Eva

3:53 am

hi eva!

3:54 am

Hello Eva

3:54 am

(with you on the phantoms, sprite)

3:54 am

confrontational, but ok, Fran. Preparation for the double session coming Thursday - THAT will be bad ;) Thanks for asking.

3:55 am

thinking good thoughts for you then sprite! :-)

3:55 am

that helps! Really does :)

3:55 am

we all are Sprite

3:55 am

with spades, sprite.

3:56 am

:D

3:56 am

I would like to think about Sprite too, but I don't know aht for please ?

3:57 am

*what

3:57 am

yay, greyed out the V!

3:58 am

OH LOOK....we have snow, big fat flakes, very pretty

3:58 am

Been diagnosed with PTSS and now getting EMDR treatment. All connected with abusive childhood and a very bad work situation. It's a bit muchish.

3:59 am

I love snow - at least while it falls and before it is trampled.

3:59 am

karys, that is one comment you will probably never hear from me.

3:59 am

haven't seen snow for a very long time. enjoy it for me.

3:59 am

Hi all

3:59 am

yay for Fran on the V!

3:59 am

hi angb!

3:59 am

evening, angb.

4:00 am

Good evening Ang!

4:00 am

thats sad Sprite,... sorry to hear that for you, and will definately be thinking about you, it's one of the reasons for my fostering past.

4:00 am

Sprite - that sounds quite involved. What is EMDR?

4:00 am

Fran...we don't get that much though

4:01 am

and I can't even find one 'v' !!

4:01 am

sounds nice karys, we'll never have snow here though, that's what i meant. :-)

4:02 am

isn't it scary how many of us share a similar past? Lots of damage in the world :( Angb: it is a psychotherapeutic treatment that works with eye movements and 'reliving' the traumatic events. Sounds kinda bizarre, but it seems it can help disconnecting the memory from the present, emotionally.

4:02 am

Thanks for that V Fran - hadn't even seen it - now all gray - and an 8 to boot!

4:02 am

karys, they all build from two words, once you find those two you'll get the rest, including an 8!

4:03 am

Well Sprite - does sound a little different, but if there is hope that things get better, I believe stuff is worth a go. My best wishes for you.

4:03 am

woo hoo lynxxx!

4:03 am

will look

4:03 am

ok, moving down to the vs.

4:03 am

got it !!!

4:04 am

i knew you would karys!

4:04 am

go karys *mumbles to herself*

4:04 am

how nice that a lot of yesterday's words are in today's grid again.

4:04 am

funny thing is, that EMDR sounds so very new age, but it is regular treatment, recommended by psychiatrist and all. You should have seen my face when they brought it up the first time :)

4:05 am

goody! got em.

4:05 am

thanks guys.

4:05 am

There's a lot we have no idea about, otherwise we would be making heaps of money I suppose.

4:05 am

you got that right angb!

4:05 am

woo hoo kanga!

4:05 am

I would like that, lol

4:06 am

no time to make money. babbling.

4:06 am

lol kanga !

4:07 am

kanga, you crack me up

4:07 am

Aaah Fran I got the v 8 too. Thanks

4:07 am

cool angb

4:07 am

yay, that's a grey V for me too, thanks

4:08 am

funny how it lifts the spirits!

4:08 am

Thats 200 points for Ang! and Sprite!

4:21 am

it is so fussy! :)

4:21 am

I just got too excited !!

4:21 am

lol, been there done that, Karys... thousands of times

4:21 am

you'd think the game would be more intuitive. :-)

4:22 am

it certainly would help...

4:22 am

I do seem to think it should know what I mean !

4:23 am

it should

4:24 am

finally got it thnx sprite.

4:24 am

peon

4:24 am

peons

4:24 am

Did my head in ... see Sorry

4:24 am

i need one more D, are there any strange ones?

4:24 am

:-)

4:24 am

yw Ang :)

4:24 am

thanks angb! i didn't have those yet.

4:24 am

I need one D too

4:25 am

I am one short as well, Fran. What I have is not strange.

4:25 am

yw fran

4:25 am

it must be the same one we all need

4:25 am

not getting the presidential clue?

4:25 am

no, greyed out the D and no strange words.

4:26 am

eva, think of the building that houses the heads of the military.

4:27 am

thanks sprite, it's probably like my Q last night

4:27 am

no babble grid without at least one blind spot, Fran, not for me anyway!

4:27 am

thanks!

4:28 am

be doing well with just one, fran!

4:28 am

me too - I was being pretty de5.12 about that HE

4:29 am

found lost 'd'

4:29 am

With you there Kanga - the grid is just one big blind spot with small glimmers

4:29 am

:) ang

4:29 am

yay Karys!

4:29 am

aargh, greyed D! i didn't have a singular for a plural i had put in.

4:30 am

glad it's not just me doing that1

4:30 am

clear case of babblitus interruptus, Fran!

4:30 am

Fran - I just got a D that I had never heard of before and when I looked up the def it said it is an English/Scottish word. Maybe not strange to others, but strange to us!

4:30 am

is that what it's called? :-)

4:31 am

Sorry - didnt see that you were done

4:31 am

ok, that's it. i'm going to have to do the ds just out of curiousity!

4:31 am

it's okay kitty, thanks, when you've played babble long enough, you're idea of strange changes a lot!

4:32 am

lol kanga!

4:32 am

it is, Fran. It happens when you see words faster than your fingers can handle :)

4:32 am

I need to find 9 more to leave 100, and then I really must go and do something !

4:32 am

sprite, i think i thought it was one of those "plural" words that don't have a singular.

4:33 am

oh yes, those. I keep forgetting them.

4:35 am

i better get to sleep, 78 left for tomorrow.

4:35 am

night everyone!

4:35 am

ok fran. you are definitely desensitised. some of those words are weird.

4:35 am

yay Fran, wd and sleep well!

4:35 am

Nite fran

4:35 am

nite Fran :)

4:36 am

night fran. sweet dreams.

4:36 am

goodnight Fran

4:36 am

I am with Fran, those D's are only weird to non-babblers :)

4:37 am

i am but young at babbling, sprite. i will learn :)

4:37 am

4:45 am

4:45 am

which means i too should be leaving. but just one more word....

4:46 am

only one more... and one more... ;)

4:46 am

to nullify...

4:46 am

ne6/24-to nullify

4:46 am

hillary, I have one that means saying it is not so

4:47 am

that's it!

4:47 am

4:47 am

4:48 am

night Eva

4:49 am

person doing it, hillary

4:49 am

2 spellings even

4:49 am

ha!!

4:49 am

ne7/36 - the person doing it, but can be spelt with different vowels on the end

4:51 am

ok, no volcano today, but we have the japanese slipper and the pheasant(s) combo to make up for it.

4:51 am

ti7/32, please? the first one...

4:52 am

not sure about first or last, kanga, but I have can + sharp thing on animal's head.

4:54 am

many thanks sprite!

4:54 am

thank you sprite!

4:54 am

yw :)

4:54 am

but why not can + cooking vessel. a very good word.

4:55 am

sigh

4:55 am

I am with you there, kanga

4:56 am

definitely a word, kanga, used as an adjective to describe a poor navey

4:57 am

make that navy -- too many glasses of wine!

4:57 am

pour me one, hillary. too few here. :)

4:58 am

anyone got the at8??

4:59 am

5:09 am

thank you! and congrats!

5:10 am

yw and thanks :)

5:13 am

To have to manage the pain of two chronic, essentially incurable conditions truly is daunting. May you find some peace, sprite.

5:14 am

thank you for that, BabbleRabble. It's kinda tough, but hey, on the upside, it will make me an expert, right> ;)

5:16 am

I suppose. Sometimes the all anyone can do is play teh cards dealt the best he/she can.

5:17 am

very true. If we cannot pick the game we play, we can at least choose how we play it!

5:17 am

Good luck!

5:18 am

You too. Such understanding has to come from experience.

5:18 am

Thank you.

5:25 am

I am off for today, have a great day/night/whatever all of you and enjoy the grid :)

5:26 am

You too, sprite

5:46 am

Good for you!

5:55 am

5:56 am

5:57 am

No, not yet, ch, but I have found 96 words in 16 minutes--I have never typed this fast before--but I will hit the wall soon when the easy words are go4

6:01 am

Hi Sugar!

6:01 am

6:02 am

6:03 am

6:05 am

6:06 am

Yeah - think long time

6:06 am

TY

6:06 am

TY ch!

6:07 am

tx ch1212

6:07 am

sorry - you're right! think takes forever

6:08 am

it's six letters long and it means archaic but it shares a root with something that lasts forever

6:08 am

Got it, TY kitty. OK, 146 to go. I must leave early due to all of the snow and bad driving ahead. Bye folks.

6:09 am

bye scrabbler, drive carefully!

6:09 am

6:14 am

ah tx kitty of course

6:15 am

kitty kitty she's our chan! If she can't clue them no one can! :D

6:16 am

:-)

6:17 am

from where are you ch1212? If I may ask...

6:17 am

in Massachusetts

6:17 am

ahh... I keep looking at your name too fast and thinking you must be from Chicago like me

6:18 am

No, but a reasonable assumption. I went to a conference once in Chicago, and they put us up right across from the Hancock building - very nice.

6:19 am

At the Four Seasons?

6:19 am

Or maybe the Omni...

6:20 am

No, one right by it -- I remember seeing the rates and gasping, and feeling a bit outraged that taxpayer dollars were going to pay for me to stay there. (I didn't have a choice). On the other hand, I certainly didn't protest TOO much :D

6:21 am

I'm from Chicago originally. I used to live on East Chestnut street, right near the Hancock building when it was being built.

6:22 am

Very nice address! I live 3 blocks from Wrigley Field.

6:22 am

I miss Chicago - I live in Vermont now.

6:22 am

I miss it too. I'm in Munich for three months.

6:23 am

I grew up in the city, then moved out to the 'burbs - Hinsdale - then back into the city.

6:24 am

I was born in Lincoln Park, raised in Northbrook, and have been living in Wrigleyville nearly my entier adult life.

6:24 am

I have to go to Boston now to get my city fix. I love that city, too.

6:25 am

G'd morning Babblers!

6:25 am

I like Boston too, what little time I've spent there.

6:25 am

We live about 80 miles from Boston,Gail but haven't ventured into the city yet. We're still trying to get used to thet traffic out in the rural parts of the state!

6:25 am

Looks like a sizable grid, may I have the word total please?

6:25 am

hi lori

6:26 am

261

6:26 am

My daughter lives there, so I go there quite a bit. Only been to New York once, though.

6:26 am

Thank ye muchly.

6:26 am

nite

6:26 am

Only once? I would tihnk you'd go there more.

6:27 am

It's a five hour drive from my house, Boston is much closer and easier to get around.

6:27 am

good morning babblers how is the grid today?

6:27 am

Gail do you drive into Boston or take the l, or t or whatever it's called?

6:27 am

Boston is a hard city to drive in!

6:28 am

morning shorty, nice one today

6:28 am

G'd morning shorty. Just getting started myself, dunno' if I'll be in a dither soon, or not.

6:28 am

I drive - it's three hours for me. I can take the bus and then the T once I get into the city. It's an easy drive.

6:28 am

good ty

6:29 am

That's what we've heard from the locals, that even the people who live in the suburbs of Boston don't drive there. That's a bit scarey to hear for people like us from the outback of Idaho :)

6:29 am

I used to love driving in Boston, but not as much any more. Parking is a huge problem, too.

6:30 am

yikes it's 7:30 and I've got to hop in the shower and get ready for work. BBL --

6:31 am

Have a good day!

6:31 am

later ch

6:32 am

Later ch.

6:32 am

Ooops, I have to go to work, too. Nice to have a few minutes to chat.

Good Mornig babblers...It's probably easier for an oursider to drive in Boston becasue we suburbanites try to make the roads go the way we KNEW!!!! Everything is all changed around :)

6:33 am

G'd morning Read

G> M. all...every once in awhile I'll pop inot a converstion, but enjoy reading. COLD here today...a dn BTW I have lived south of Boston my entire life and recommend Boston as a great city to visit

Hi Mom...noticed you are from KY...loved visiting your state a few back...lush green pastures near the Cynthiana (sp) are where my brother-in-law use to live.

6:38 am

Cynthiana is a beautiful area.

Sorry, my typing make my sentence as tough to reaad as the grid is to do!!

6:39 am

I live about 10-15 minutes from Cincinnati, Ohio and about 20 minutes form Lawrenceburg Indiana

6:40 am

lol read-knit-bake

6:40 am

Coffee break time. Anyone else? :)

6:40 am

Cynthiana is about 40 minutes or so from us

That's interesting becasue that same brother in law lived in Cinncinnati for awjile as well, but has moved onto Michigan.

6:40 am

no thanks Lori, had tea just a bit before

6:41 am

Did he job takes him to all these areas?

6:41 am

that is a good idea!

6:42 am

oy vey, big puzzle

yes and no...he was employed for many years and traveled alot but is a currently an efficiency expert for large companies and has been self empoyed for many years.

6:43 am

where do you live krissyk?

I am sure everyone would like to get back to the grid...ty for the conversations.

6:43 am

I enjoyed it, thanks

6:43 am

I'm in Austin, TX, kitty

quick in and out and off to work but had to interject: If you haven't read Paul Gallico's 1950 classic "Jennie" please try to find a copy. It's such a wonderful, wonderful book told from the cats' point of view

7:31 am

LOL, Une

7:31 am

Paul Gallico was a wonderful writer.

7:31 am

thanks ch, will do - have a good day!

7:31 am

ahh -the new blonde version no doubt?

7:31 am

actually, he prefers the faucet, and likes to fling a lot of water all over the place before he begins drinking. go figure.

7:32 am

wow . . . am a dog person but thought cats were less than thrilled with water . . .

7:32 am

got to dash bbl happy babbling everybody:)

7:33 am

they are not generally thrilled with getting soaked, but they can be fascinated by water running, falling, etc

7:33 am

bye jean

7:33 am

it was so funny, though, when he started drinking from the faucet. because you could SEE the wheels turning in his head when he saw me do it to rinse after brushing. "that looks like a good idea!" and he had to try it right away.

7:34 am

hursh, you'll love this--I have a friend whose cat runs out the door whenever someone comes to visit . . . she panicked when she first adopted him but soon discovered that he only runs away UPstairs! LOL!

7:34 am

lol

7:34 am

I have one that does that une. His nickname is scardeecat. His name is China

7:35 am

Wolvie, that's amazing--my niece's cat is "China" and I'd never heard of that name for a cat before!

7:35 am

makes sense, there are china cats :)

7:36 am

;-) - he just looked like a china when we got him - he's a tuxedo guy.

7:36 am

he was my second feral rescue - not even weaned yet. Such a little snuggle bug

7:37 am

yay cats! CARPE FELIS!

7:37 am

he and my 80 pound big collie ball of fluff are best friends

7:37 am

does that mean he's black and white? We have a very sweet neighborhood cat with that coloring--Mao-Mao (his family was Chinese and they left him when they moved)--he's incredibly tolerant of my dogs' enthusiastic greetings!

7:37 am

we have 3 hursh, so I do agree.

7:38 am

3 cats here. Rudy, Rosie and LiLu.

7:38 am

yes - that's the black and white - always ready for any event!

7:38 am

wow, we all have 3 cats, lol

7:38 am

our three are China, KitKat, and Tyler

3 grand cats here, Stinky,Kitty and Charlotte

7:38 am

that seems to be enough. :-)

7:38 am

except moi . . .

7:39 am

altho my friend has 3 and I'm an auntie to them so I guess that counts

7:39 am

and i'm one of 3 sisters, too, lol

7:39 am

I'm a dog and cat person - love them both

lol une

7:39 am

one of 2 here

me too wolvie, and I have a grand dragon too named Liger

7:39 am

it does une ;-)

7:39 am

We also have a doxie/terrier mix who thinks the cats like her. They don't.

7:39 am

I enjoy what I call "dog cats"--3 of my friends have kitties in that category!

7:39 am

All creatures, great and small

7:40 am

a grand dragon? As in a lizard - for real?

lol krissy don't ever tell her

7:40 am

you have a DRAGON? hungarian horntail? chinese fireball?

yes a bearded dragon

7:40 am

China is like a dog in that he comes when you call him, sits, etc.

she is as big as the cats lol

7:40 am

wow - uhh - what do you feed him? Do you buy those little grasshoppers?

7:40 am

Wow, gramma. What does he eat?

7:41 am

urf. don't you just love insane drivers who seem to want to kill you on the roads?

7:41 am

ohmygosh, do they get along??

7:41 am

snap scarlet!

all the cats think she likes, them, she doesn't lol

7:41 am

hey, ata!

7:41 am

can't imagine the kitties damaging the dragon

oh yes she walks on a leash etc

7:41 am

oh yes, ata, i can't think of anyone i love more

7:41 am

hi ata!

7:41 am

wonder what the kitties think of him . . .

hi ata

7:41 am

hmm ata - and you aren't in Boston either. How odd. ;-0

7:42 am

or Nashville!

7:42 am

drivers here have never heard of blinkers

7:42 am

hah! I've driven both, even La, SF, all over infact - nothing like Boston. ;-0

7:43 am

Sounds like Asheville, Une

7:43 am

they don't come standard on cars in Ma

7:43 am

and they love to come lunging out of side streets!

7:43 am

and those are NOTHING like London!

7:43 am

how else does one get out? ;-0

7:43 am

lol, true Wovlie!

7:43 am

Or Cairo

7:43 am

so now I keep seeing kitty herb in the puzzle.

7:43 am

hi inge 2

7:43 am

when I lived in Paris I only took public transportation!!

7:44 am

I agree with that une

7:44 am

krissy - good phantom!

7:44 am

gotta run . . . BBL

7:44 am

Do the drivers in Paris still do 'line ups' at traffic lights? Three lanes but six cars revving their engines ready for the off?

7:44 am

bye une

c ya une

7:45 am

'Bye, Une

7:45 am

am shaking. a few minutes ago - went round a roundabout, there was a lorry in the inner lane behind me. fine. he obviously decides that I am *not* getting off the roundabout before him (even though the roundabout filters off into 2 lanes, so in theory I would have gone in 1 lane, him in the other. But no, he lurches across into my lane, about a foot away from me and STOPS. dead. I brake madly, everything flies everywhere. So do the people behind me. So I signal off into the overtaking lane to try and get past him, and - get this - he tries to RAM MY CAR with his lorry! I just just just got past him and sped off, just in time to see him in a layby signalling me to get over there and talk to him! AS IF!

7:45 am

whoa atalante

7:46 am

jeepers!

7:46 am

glad you're ok

7:46 am

I just wish I'd seen his number plate

7:46 am

OMG ata - glad you got away

7:46 am

Yeow... what a massive jerk.

wow ata

7:46 am

hi dan2

7:46 am

ata, that is awful...

7:46 am

get his license and report him? Probably didn't have time

7:46 am

hi wolvie

7:46 am

If the truck had a company name on it, report him

7:47 am

Atlante was just on the news here (England) a guy guy has been prosecuted and lost his lis for driving past a row of cars at 70 miles an hour while shaving!!!!Nuts or what

7:47 am

absolutely inge - I would

7:47 am

hi maggy

7:47 am

and I'm soooooo glad I didn't have Hobbit in the back ... I wish, Inge ... I just wanted to get a lot of fresh air between me and him! I know I'll remember the company name if I think about it hard enough, and damn right I will!

7:47 am

wtg ata - what a jerk that guy is

7:47 am

hi wolvie all

7:47 am

this was england too, maggy. the drivers here are mad today. saw 3 crashes as well

7:48 am

Hobbit is your dog?

7:48 am

yup, she would have got flung *everywhere*

7:48 am

right. yikes.

7:48 am

very glad hobbit was home

7:48 am

wow - note to self - don't drive in London

7:49 am

don't know about there but here some truckers use amphetamines and it makes them crazy

7:50 am

my sons a cop..he says mobile phones cause more accidents than drink drivers drugs user put together

7:50 am

yes, same here, Inge, especially the ones that drive across Europe (and we're right down by the ports that cross to France and Belgium)

7:50 am

Ata, thank goodness no one was hurt...but badly shook up

7:50 am

I believe it Maggy, I've come close to being hit at least 3x by people trying to negotiate turns while on the phone

7:51 am

that wouldn't surprise me at all, maggy

7:51 am

the day they give penalty points for mobile phone use will be a good day

7:51 am

it was even worse when the phones were "car" phones - bolted to the car. yee gods

7:52 am

and unfortunately every country is cutting their police forces to the minum and we just dont have enough patrols out

7:52 am

lots of cities have laws about that here in the states now

7:52 am

we do too wolvie but not enough people to enforce them..we have too many CHiefs and not enough Idians

7:53 am

nice innocuous grid here Atalante to calm down with

7:53 am

I hear ya maggy

7:53 am

Fireworks!

7:54 am

in NYC you have to use a hands- free phone but I see many that have one hand on the wheel the other holding a phone and turning corners, makes me blanch...they are so deep into conversation they dont pay any attention to what they are doing

7:54 am

wtg Merk!

7:54 am

Good job, Merk. WTG

7:54 am

congrats, Merk

8:07 am

no. that's the world record ear length dog. I just like him a lot. Used to have a basset.

8:10 am

people don't use the word much.

8:10 am

i suppose because it's an odd verb - active grammatically, but passive in content.

8:10 am

ah. still quite the pic

8:11 am

it's not in*****ent to most lexicons

8:14 am

8:34 am

Haz, thanks

8:34 am

8:39 am

thanks hurshy :D

8:40 am

and so was the shakespearean king

8:40 am

mmmmmmm......white chocolate hot cocoa....

8:40 am

I'm with you, Annie, the king was "the king" of all clues

8:40 am

Sometimes my clues fall on stony ground, so it's nice to see them understood!

8:40 am

female cock alert.. go6.27

8:41 am

One of your finer works Haz :)

8:41 am

Haz, it isn't nice to refer to my brain like that before my second cup of coffee!

8:41 am

ty alo

8:41 am

thanks aloy

8:41 am

hi FM

8:41 am

hi FMitch!

8:41 am

Hello FMitch!

8:41 am

ty aloy

8:41 am

Hi FM

8:42 am

Scarlet - no insult to your brain at all. It's just that sometimes I give a clue and I get 'huh' in return!

8:42 am

Hi guys, just pooed in to say hello as work is in the way again. Hows the grid?

8:42 am

very nice today FM

8:42 am

fun, fun, today, FM

8:42 am

LOL, LOL, Haz. Keep at it... when I'm plank-brained, I'll ask for some clarification. Don't ever stop being YOU.

8:42 am

Do you want to rephrase that, FM? Your first sentence I mean...

8:43 am

*popped in

8:43 am

FM You pooed? In public?

8:43 am

That's better! How are you today?

8:44 am

Probably just as well Im not tryin to do the grid yet. Im OK Haz on the right road. Hows you and How is Spangle?

8:45 am

Hello everyone! Ugh, what have I stepped in? FMitch! REALLY! ;-)

8:45 am

hi Jac!!

8:45 am

Good day, Jacula.

8:45 am

I'm not too bad, thank you and Spangle is much better. She got lots of cuddles from me but I rather think the medication has helped her more.... She was keen to go for her walk today. No more piteous glances and holding up of paws.

8:45 am

Hi Jacula

8:45 am

LOL Jacs and it's good to see you too.

8:45 am

this is good news haz

8:45 am

Hello Jacula, good to see you!

8:46 am

hi jacula

8:46 am

I didnt know Spangle was unwell, glad to hear she is doing better

8:47 am

Haz - What happened to Spangle??

8:47 am

She had a sprained wrist, or the equivalent - husband prescribed some wonder medicine and it has done the trick. I don't really know what started it off, but she's on the mend.

8:47 am

Morning word finders!

8:48 am

hi Judi!

8:48 am

Good morning Judi.

8:48 am

hi, judi

8:48 am

Poor Spangle! Hope she's better soon.

8:48 am

Morning, Judi.

8:48 am

morning, Judi

8:48 am

She'll be fine - she can still make her way to the treat cupboard.....

8:49 am

the ge5/14 afterthe multiple for parts of DNA?

8:49 am

hi judi

8:49 am

Speaking of getting better... how are you, FMitch?

8:49 am

8:49 am

8:49 am

off, why do i keep doing that???

8:50 am

thanks for asking Jacs Im getting there but it is a slow path.

8:50 am

part of DNA extended with a * shirt

8:50 am

You want some of Spangle's medicine?

8:50 am

I didn't know you'd been ill FM - glad to hear you are recovering

8:50 am

ooh, FM... didn't know you were ill.. sorry to hear that

8:50 am

8:52 am

bye FM

8:52 am

take care, FM... see you next time

8:52 am

As today's theme is 'your favourite museum exhibit' I thought a picture of myself most appropriate. I'm smiling at something on the chatlog in the pic.

8:52 am

Thanks FMitch - it's a lovely grid today, even if you want to tackle it later one for fun. The slasher chicken is even there.

8:53 am

'Bye, FMitch.

8:53 am

You're not old enough yet to qualify as a museum piece!

8:53 am

Haz - Thank you, kind lady!

8:53 am

nice pic Jac!

8:54 am

*packs up hot cocoa and puts it away* guess no one wants any!

8:54 am

I do, I do.. hold on...

8:54 am

it's the white choco evan - I only "do" dark. ;-0

8:54 am

aaahhh, ty, evan... delish!

8:54 am

evanadine - I'll have some. I'm freezing he4/5. *Gets up to close window.*

8:54 am

8:55 am

8:55 am

I am missing an a - I have 6 ag's and 9 at's - what am I missing?

8:56 am

Another ag word

8:56 am

An ag, Wolvie.

8:56 am

There's an Oreo in the puzzle to go with that hot chocolate.

8:56 am

8:58 am

8:58 am

9:05 am

Okay, but what's the clue for the i word???

9:05 am

9:06 am

Thanks, evan!

9:06 am

jac -- make it plural for the other i

9:06 am

...and Haz.

9:06 am

No problem.

9:07 am

evan - already did that, thanks. It's a policy to always add an 's' in ho4/6 it's a word.

9:07 am

Never heard that i before. *bell rings* I guess I just learned something.

9:07 am

must be off , bbl

9:08 am

9:08 am

'Bye, Wolvie.

9:08 am

9:09 am

Quite a bit of wildlife in today's grid,isn't there?

9:09 am

go6/30?

9:10 am

Smaller version of a groundhog, arwenn.

9:10 am

arwenn - garden pest in USA.

9:10 am

go6/30 sounds like one who runs errands but is spelt differently.

9:10 am

yeah...ER4, GO6, DE4...oh my!

9:10 am

ahh thanks jac

9:10 am

Don't forget the Hipo, Evanadine!

9:11 am

9:11 am

9:11 am

It must have been to Weightwatchers, Judi! LOL

9:11 am

Well, it's a slim hippo. He's missing a p.

9:12 am

*totally missing something*

9:12 am

and the ho 5/12. but where's the fish?

9:13 am

Fireworks...

9:14 am

ER4, GO6, DE4, HO5, HE4...any other animals actually in the grid??

9:14 am

congrats angel

9:14 am

he5/12 - a water bird with a long neck that comes in blue and white

9:14 am

not too hard tor i have 145 in 30 minutes

9:14 am

Do they have to be animals, are birds discounted?

9:15 am

to4/5 - African gazelle

9:15 am

thanks arwennn

9:15 am

ER4, GO6, DE4, HO5, HE4, HE5...it really is a wild kingdom!! haz -- im including birds as animals -- the ER4, HE4, and HE5 are birdies...

9:16 am

Then don't forget the ge5/14

9:16 am

ER4, GO6, DE4, HO5, HE4, HE5, GE5, TO4 -- *WOW!*

9:17 am

And the go6/27 and go7/40

9:17 am

fireworks!

9:17 am

*opens umbrella and grabs pooper scooper* This could get messy.

9:17 am

ga5/14 and ga6/24

9:17 am

haz -- i think thats different from the GO6 i already have....hints?

9:18 am

clue for the go6/27 haz

9:18 am

wildlife I have found so far: de4, er 4x2 + 5, ga5 & 6, ge5 x 2 (one bird, one animal), go6 &7 (animal), go6 & 7 (fowl), he4, he5 & 6, ho6 (stinging thing), ho 5 & 6, pe4 (female swans), te4 5x2 & 6, to4 (antelope), to4 (bull).

9:18 am

It was memorably clued a good while ago and being the sort of chicken that would appear in slasher movies.

9:18 am

ga is a childs way of saying the name of the animal that lives in the water but is not a fish

9:18 am

thanks haz

9:19 am

think Dr God tried out a themed grid today??

9:19 am

I don't know, but it was a very nice one!

9:20 am

Haz - have you finished? I've still got 32 to go.

9:20 am

Yes, I finished a little while ago.

9:21 am

Congrats, Haz.

9:21 am

Thank you!

9:21 am

I need to run but I wish you all very good luck with the rest of the puzzle!

9:22 am

Bye kittychan.

9:22 am

Thank you, kittychan. 'Bye.

9:22 am

Bye, Kittykittykitty!

9:22 am

bye kitty

9:23 am

I'm trying to get a feline word from the 'c' but no luck, so far... only found Miss Blanchett.

9:24 am

...and the food providing words.

9:24 am

Don't forget the plural, jac

9:24 am

Shame there were no felines to add to the wildlife list!

9:25 am

jac, where a lion lives in a zoo, poor thing

9:25 am

ge5/14 is a feline

9:25 am

I've got the c's, thanks.

9:25 am

pab - yes.

9:27 am

I take it you've all found the ti6 & 2x ti7? 'Ti**** through the tulips.'

9:27 am

second day in a row for the whisky mash

9:27 am

Hearing Tiny TIm as we speak.

9:28 am

Thanks, Jac

9:28 am

pab - yes! The police haven't located the Babble still yet.;-)

9:28 am

Haz - me, too.

9:28 am

y/w, Scarlet.

9:28 am

Our brains must be stuffed with the same images from the sixties and seventies.

9:29 am

What was his Miss ? whom he married on the Johnny Carson show?

9:29 am

Haz - yeah, man!

9:29 am

Tiny Tim scares me. I think he's been reincarnated as Weird Al Yankovic.

9:29 am

Right on!

9:29 am

Miss Vicky?

9:29 am

Judi - I've always thought that... or the lead singer of The Darkness.

9:30 am

Yea! That's the lady, Annie. Gosh, we must be ancient! LOL

9:30 am

that's it annie

9:30 am

Or, he could be Howard Stern.

9:30 am

what kind of feline is the GE5/14 then, Pab?

9:30 am

tiny tim scares me more than weird al

9:30 am

Howard Stern is a gigantic jerk with a permission slip from Satan

9:30 am

howard stern terrifies me though

9:31 am

I thought I was the only one that Tiny Tim scared. Glad to see I am not alone

9:31 am

it's a small spotted european cat liz

9:31 am

Just had to look Howard Stern up. See what you mean!

9:32 am

Scarlet, wonderful description of Howard Stern. I couldnt agree more

9:32 am

I heard him on an NPR interview before he died, and his voice was quite basso profundo. His mind was sharp and filled with esoterica from the past geniuses of music. TY, Annie.

9:32 am

Why can't someone who ti7/32 be a ti****r?

9:33 am

how many words today?

9:33 am

I wondered that myself, Jacula. Apparently the appropriate descriptive word for that is "insane".

9:34 am

261

9:34 am

good point jacula

9:34 am

ty annie

9:34 am

This was debated earlier, Jacula but I don't think we could come up with an explanation. But you can't have a to*r so maybe that's why.

9:35 am

Suppose so, Haz.

9:36 am

Speaking of scarey... did anyone see Prince's performance at the Superbowl?

9:37 am

No, Judi.

9:37 am

wait, what's this ti7/32? i have the compound one...

9:37 am

yes judi, it was awful!!

9:37 am

I can't find this darn cat, Pab..any clues for me?

9:37 am

verb form, hursh.

9:37 am

I agree Scarlet I cant stand Howard Stern

9:37 am

hurshy - when you want to go somewhere stealthily.

9:38 am

oh my goodness, wasn't that bad, of course i'm not a prince fan so i guess i can't really have an opinion :)

9:38 am

ah... through the tulips i go.

9:38 am

Yes, I regret to say I did, Judi, and I still feel nauseous.

9:38 am

liz add a consonant to the DNA part

9:38 am

liz - add a beverage letter to the ge4/6

9:38 am

lizmac - ge + what Ena Sharples wore on her head.

9:38 am

Oh, shorty, he is such a pig, and such a self-promoter!

9:39 am

Prince and Superbowl just do not go together. They should have brought Billy Joel back for an encore performance after the anthem.

9:39 am

Well, well and golly gosh...TY

9:39 am

cirque du soleil doesn't really go with the superbowl either...

9:39 am

I know I cant even stand to look at him

9:40 am

He make me SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9:40 am

It was the babushka that gave me a clue that the old boy was really reaching.... LOL

9:40 am

i have no objection to them on their own, but they are not footballish.

9:40 am

no kidding, WHAT was he thinking wearing that??

9:40 am

True. Why does someone even have to perform? Why can't they just have a kick ass fireworks / laser light show?

9:40 am

well it was raining maybe he was trying to keep dry

9:41 am

I think Prince was wearing the Aunt Jemima kerchief to keep his laquered hair from getting rained on. Why on earth would he have tied it like that though?

9:41 am

LOL, Judi. Oh, hursh, it was pathetic. How about some REAL entertainment for a change. Janet Jackson, Prince... I should have turned on the Puppy Bowl III... at least they had kitties for their half-time show...

9:41 am

exactly Judi, besides who watches for the halftime show, i watch for the commercials and the game, that is the game and the commercials ;)

9:42 am

yeah, the only one i've liked was paul mccartney's

9:42 am

you know youre bored at work when you go to the office supply center just for something to do + youre super-excited that they have green pens...

9:42 am

What would be wrong with a good round of Mexican waving? Great audience participation and cheap as well.

9:43 am

i liked the dalmations commercial

9:43 am

Try not to do too many cartwheels, Evanadine.

9:43 am

that was good maggie, i also loved the snickers commercial i still snicker over it ;0

9:43 am

That, and the crabs, a la "2001"

9:43 am

I liked the Blockbuster mouse commercial, too. ALthough I thought this year's commercials were pretty bland.

9:44 am

Yeah, CiociaJudy. It did seem to be an off year for really quality commercials.

9:44 am

hi all! don't get too close, I have the second virus in five days, **sniff sniff cough*

9:44 am

Not only bland, but extremely, graphically violent... does that pass for expertise these days?

9:44 am

The Prince performance was perfect for me--that's when I ran around the house doing stuff!! LOL Didn't want to miss the commercials!! LOL

9:44 am

Sorry to interject - I though the Doritos commerical by the amateurs was one of the best

9:44 am

we were thinking that after the janet jackson fiasco, they might have been trying to bring it back down to "simpler times" i dunno how prince fits that bill though... they should get someone like john cougar -- true rocl-n-roll and americana...

9:44 am

they were, usually Bud has really good commercials and i was really disappointed they didn't have any spotlighting the clydesdales

9:45 am

*hands Stid honey lemon tea* poor baby, Stid *pats stid on head keeping safe distance*

9:45 am

oh, that tea is JUST what I needed, thanks "auntie"

9:46 am

Shall I throw in a shot of whiskey, too, Stid?

9:46 am

the one with the depressed machine working in the car factory was the one i remember best...

9:46 am

LOL! Just watched the YouTube video of Prince's Superbowl performance. He's wearing Hilda Ogden's headgear.

9:46 am

*snags bottle of whishy*

9:46 am

I loved the series of office commercials... they were SO FUNNY!

9:46 am

sounds like you've had enough stidmama

9:46 am

now, now Stid. Moderation is key. LOL

9:46 am

oh, sorry to hear that stid... have you tried any of those new flu meds?

9:47 am

But not with the curlers, Jac?

9:47 am

oops. *whisKey* LOL

9:48 am

Haz - sans curler, yes.

9:48 am

Sorry you're sick, stid. We use the Vicks liquigels for serious symptoms, and no drowsiness, either.

9:48 am

*curlers

9:48 am

Glad to hear it!

9:48 am

I haven't Aloyisius, perhaps I should, but I'll give it today before I go to the store. It's a long drive to the store...

9:48 am

Just got the ve6,7 &8. Should have just referred back to Prince's hair. *smack*

9:48 am

how nasty cold is it there, stid?

9:48 am

A bonnet de douche would have been better, considering the weather, Haz.;-)

9:49 am

please elucidate Judi

9:49 am

That would have been priceless!

9:49 am

Judi, good clue... I hadn't even seen that, and it's the immediate word that popped into my head, re: his hair!

9:49 am

Well, Jac, he did look like a douche bag, so he got it half right.

9:49 am

uh-oh...what did i walk into? i hear some people trash-talking his Royal badness!

9:49 am

thx Judi! had the 6 but forgot about the 7 & 8

9:49 am

not bad Aloyisius, about our normal -- down to the high 30s at night, into the fifties by mid-day. foggy, drizzly... the trees look so pretty in the mist

9:49 am

this could get ugly ;)

9:50 am

never mind Judi

9:50 am

Prince is one of my favorite performers...and I'm being serious.

9:50 am

I need help on those V words also...

9:50 am

absolutely freezing here in PA. Windchills were about minus 20 this morning.

9:50 am

In the blue corner, we have Bloodaxe and bookgrrl and in the red corner we have......

9:50 am

I like his music, but I don't particularly like the silly dancing ...

9:50 am

Hi, Blood... just a re-cap and critique of the Super Bowl, commercials and half-time "entertainment"

9:50 am

freezing here too school was cancelled again

9:50 am

lol haz

9:50 am

oh Judy! that's WAY too cold! are you doing okay? is your father okay?

9:51 am

of course, The Entertainer Formerly Known As and Again Known as Prince is from my teen years...

hi everyone! how far back is that ve7/8 clue?

9:51 am

we're toasty. thx for asking Stid. Hated to go out for work today. :(

9:51 am

ok, I'll offer my two cents; I expected to HATE the half time show, but I actually liked it and admired the gusto with which all the performers played in the driving rain.. worried about electrical shocks and instruments getting ruined tho

9:51 am

hey all, I loved the one with robert goulet

9:51 am

ve6,8 & 7 = a thin layer of wood or 'a ve**** of respectability'.

9:51 am

well i LOVE prince...i think he is one of the absolute best songwriters/performers of all time...a little excentric...but amazing.

i love him, too...i agree and his last was amiazing

9:52 am

ditto, bloodaxe; his concert was THE best one i've ever seen (and I've been to hundreds)

9:52 am

got it! thanks Jacula!

9:52 am

He's also one of the best guitarists around, even though that's not how people see him

9:52 am

having said that, his excentricities (did I spell that right) definately leave him open to attack...

9:52 am

Okay.... that's two for Prince. I must admit, the show was high energy. The SHOW was okay, just Prince was disturbing.

ty jacs!

9:52 am

I am ambivalent re Prince or The Artist formerly known as 'squiggle'. I'll be referee. LOL.

9:53 am

eccentricities, Blood.

9:53 am

We were pleased to note that he wasn't lip-syncing...

9:53 am

y/w, stid.

9:53 am

ok..now it's time to babble!

9:53 am

thanks jac!

9:53 am

go Bloodaxe go!

9:53 am

What was Shiela Easton or Shiela E thinking?

9:53 am

Well, I must retire gracefully to do some chores. Today's grid was fun, no trolls to speak of and good company. Just like old times....... have a good day, everyone. (I have no opinion on Prince)

9:53 am

I am going to get the kids onto the bus, then back in a bit.

9:53 am

I noticed that he wasn't really playing the guitar. The music was definitely dubbed. Probably so he would get an electric shock from the rain.

9:53 am

good morning, everyone ;)

9:54 am

cu Haz. Have a great day.

9:54 am

bye haz and stid....

9:54 am

later HAz

9:54 am

9:58 am

Hi, Angela.

9:59 am

there is a ve 6 & 7 related to the 8, the others have to do with odes

9:59 am

first thing I wanted to type in was catnip :)

9:59 am

3 x ve thin layers & 3 x rhyming words.

9:59 am

sure is snp...but i don't now if it's better because the drugs are so good or if because it's acutally healing.

10:00 am

we had that ne5.12 yesterday!

10:01 am

Well, at least it's better

10:01 am

yea.

10:01 am

the good part is at least i've been able to watch some movies since i'm not supposed to move/walk

10:02 am

Nice! Look at the bright side, eh?

10:02 am

i have all the ti words except the first ti 7/8. is it obvious?

10:03 am

might I suggest Shaun of the Dead to you for a movie title Blood?

10:03 am

that's right....

10:03 am

a new cowboy and plural

10:03 am

there are two ti 7.8 combos?

10:03 am

term used in old westerns to describe a guy new to the cowboy life

10:03 am

hi TO!

10:04 am

The news on MSNBC is filled with the saga of Lisa Nowak, the astronaut who just went nutso and drove from Houston to Florida to attack an aeronautical engineer... seems to be a modern Shakespearean tragedy... no one is dead. She spent the night in jail. Attacked with pepper spray and other lovelies... wore diapers all the way on the drive so she wouldn't have to stop... The world is officially crazy.

10:04 am

a ti 7/8 and a ti 7/7

10:04 am

aahhh...great movie angela...unfortunately my selection is rather slim. i've had to resort to "pirating" to get movies to watch.

10:04 am

oh, i know i read about her this morning--what a wackjob

10:04 am

oh my goodness, what a sad thing, Scarlet! I haven't checked the news at all yet.

10:04 am

one of my faves Blood - so I had to suggest it

10:04 am

bloodaxe -- no netflix type of thing where you are, then?

10:04 am

that story is on NPR news right now--amazing!

10:05 am

haha thanks for summing the story up for me scarlet, i was feeling too lazy to read it all

10:05 am

that is the weirdest thing i've ever heard.

10:05 am

what was the motive scarlet?

10:05 am

It's insane, but NASA said she had passed all of her psychological testing, and actually went into space...

10:05 am

what in the world ticked Lisa off the end of sanity?

10:05 am

the diapers part was the looniest -- she wore diapers so she souldnt have to take a rest stop!

10:05 am

a MAN.

10:05 am

Motive, Ang... the usual suspects... Love. A man.

10:05 am

i wish evan. so movie stores/rental places, but you can find tons of movies in the bigger cities, bootlegged, for about $1

10:06 am

according to NPR she attempted to kidnap a rival for the affections of a third person

10:06 am

thanks for the ti 7.8 combo -- had the 6.7.7 combo

10:06 am

shoulda guessed that

10:06 am

Ah...those men...can't live with 'em...hehehe

10:06 am

optin

10:06 am

*notes that shes already a married mother of 3, if i read correctly

10:06 am

sorry

10:07 am

That's right, evan. You're welcome, SGIC. LOL

10:08 am

hello, how's the grid today? sort of long I see

10:08 am

a friend of mine is a police officer that catches internet predators, so most stories seem tame compared to his :)

10:08 am

so wait, the engineer she attacked was another woman, and they both liked the same guy, is that right?

10:08 am

thats it hurshy

10:08 am

Some gambling addicts wear diapers when they use the gambling machines for the same reason. Hi all!

10:08 am

10:09 am

Lusted after, hursh... it's now official.. the end is nigh

10:09 am

ep clues?

10:33 am

Having said that, the man himself varied the spelling; often signing himself Shakespear.

10:33 am

Many spellings weren't set until about the end of the 18th century.

10:34 am

do you suppose spear was a metaphor for... something else... and he liked to shake it? lol

10:34 am

ep + first three letters of four legged animal you ride plus plural, phandmd

10:34 am

Good question, I've wanted to know for two months, Wolfrick.

2:28 pm

Hen Ren8, Scarlet. It's cold but not freezing - in the 40s in the morning and 50s about now. I like where I am on weeks like this!

hiya ren

2:31 pm

Hi guys ..

2:32 pm

Hey, Tor

2:33 pm

hi tor

2:33 pm

We had a customer who kept saying her location was "Lucky Wallace" and we couldn't find it on Google or the maps . . . .Turns out it's "Lake Wales" . ..

2:34 pm

oh lol

tor, must have been someone who moved here, perhaps from Germany or Russia?

2:35 pm

Cuba, I think ..

2:37 pm

last op 6 help?

(not familiar with Cuban accent much)

2:39 pm

jamie - op 6 - think of the met (a performance) remove the last vowel, then add not off but **

2:39 pm

plural for 7

2:39 pm

thanks1

I recall a guy from Russia, at work, who told a bunch of us he had dah-MAZH on his car. When I hear words I see them spelled so I knew he meant damage but I was the only one who could figure out what he was saying

2:41 pm

wolvie, do you have the op 6 after those 2?

2:41 pm

When I was young & stupid I went to get my tires rotated - when the guy said "Want them tars bounced?" I had no clue what he meant!

Kentucky? LOL

2:42 pm

Okay, I shouldn't look like Lamont Cranston anymore.

2:42 pm

No, Missouri!

2:42 pm

LOL wolfr

2:42 pm

yes jamie - a newbie is known as a neo**** - sounds like fight.

2:43 pm

last OP = op + *** the ball over the fence + vowel

2:43 pm

yay! thanks

2:43 pm

well - no wolf, not lamont. ;-0

2:43 pm

cool jamie

2:43 pm

. . . of KY bourbon? *pass*

2:45 pm

lol

2:45 pm

no** to self, even if it doesn't seem possible, remember, this is babble, so type it in anyway. ;-)

2:46 pm

Yeah, you couldn't half pound that drink down.

2:46 pm

Charm, thank you for that last op word... it made me a little crazy

drinking and me do not mix. makes me way sick -- based on trying it once

2:47 pm

yw, Scarlet

2:47 pm

i need help with the two go 6/7 combos

2:48 pm

go6 - burrowing animal.

2:48 pm

go6/27 = gor + female fowl.

2:49 pm

ahhh!

2:49 pm

and then a blood and guts chicken jamie

2:49 pm

thanks!

go6 sounds like a female chicken rasied by that Inconvenient Truth guy

2:49 pm

sorry for that extra consonant. monkeys got away from me....

2:49 pm

Hi all, back for another attempt

2:49 pm

hi Mom

oh, wolvie's clue was much better, ignore mine LOL

2:50 pm

Hi Wolvie

2:50 pm

pitter is not a word?

2:51 pm

i vote for desnot

2:51 pm

Apparently.

2:51 pm

last 3 at words?

2:51 pm

de-snot would require a hyphen :)

2:51 pm

or just one of them?

2:51 pm

de-snot would require a hyphen :) And tissues.

2:52 pm

or... something like that wolf

but not resnot! LOL

2:52 pm

de-snot would require a hyphen :) And tissues. And hand-sanitizer.

2:52 pm

redesnot?

pitter is only part of a phrase, so doesn't "count" in some word games which are too picky, like this one

2:52 pm

hey - you got a word in there, wyrd. ;-)

2:52 pm

2 even

resnot for whom the bell snots, it snots for thee!

2:52 pm

achoo!

2:53 pm

"Desnot" V. Transitive. A task performed by Chuck-E-Cheese employees after closing.

2:53 pm

(actually two Wolvie)

2:53 pm

eeewww

2:53 pm

yes - I caught that with my even wyrd. :-)

2:54 pm

glad I don't do chucky-e-cheese!

wolfrick, lolmfas!!

ate at a chucky-e-cheese once -- very gross -- developed an infection

2:54 pm

179 left!

2:54 pm

last 3 at words?

2:55 pm

TMI, gwen, TMI. ;-0

2:55 pm

how many words in this grid?

2:55 pm

think of lawyers jamie, just leave some off - like after the n

2:56 pm

then past te***, then plural

2:56 pm

yay!

2:56 pm

thanks, wolvie

2:56 pm

Hello, M.P.

2:58 pm

hi scarlet

2:58 pm

Hi M.P.

2:58 pm

hi mom

2:58 pm

This grid has been an exercise in total insanity, and Wolvie tells me I can't be normal... LOL

2:59 pm

Evening MP and Mom

2:59 pm

hi ren8

3:00 pm

should be just your thing then scarlet!! ;-)

3:00 pm

Hi everyone! firewords, and thanks for all the great clues

3:00 pm

Good evening Ren8

3:00 pm

Maybe you are crazy, scarlet. Although unlikely, seeing as you actually play Babble. If you were that insane, you wouldn't play.

3:00 pm

congrats lbdawger!

3:00 pm

hi lbdawger

WTG, dawg!!

3:01 pm

well done Ibdawger

3:01 pm

WTG, Ibdawger!

3:01 pm

congrats, dawg!

3:01 pm

WTG lbd

3:02 pm

Congrats Ildawger

3:02 pm

there were a few times there that i didn't think i'd finish. like when the flipping phone kept ringing! i hate wrong numbers!

3:02 pm

ewww, and reading about chuck e cheese...gross!

3:02 pm

Don't we all? But it's worse when you dial them - how embarrassing.

3:02 pm

Better than trolls, though, dawgie

3:03 pm

Of course, it isn't as bad for me - I'm usually looking in the school phonebook. It's when someone tells me a number.

3:03 pm

I have a newbie question... I need to make sure I understand this correctly... In the tile stats box, my first letter says "N 3/5" That means I have three of the five words that start with THAT letter at THAT tile, right?

3:03 pm

but i bet you say something like "oh, i'm sorry i dialed the wrong number" and not "who the **(& is this?"

3:04 pm

Yeah

3:04 pm

yes wolfrick, that's exactly what that means

3:04 pm

Right, Wolfr

3:04 pm

Yeah

3:04 pm

Correct Wolfrick

3:04 pm

Horry clap! I don't know how I'm going to get two more N words from that tile. But don't tell me yet :)

3:05 pm

feed your monkeys and let them rip Wolfrick!

3:05 pm

done. clues before I go?

3:05 pm

I can see you are going to be a fun addition wolf - such phrasing. ;-0

3:05 pm

We don't ruin anyone's fun... it's the hunt that is the crux of the game...

3:05 pm

whooo hooo Charm!

the ones you are missing are either "fake" words (obscure) or they are so obvious you will be dazed by disbelief when you find them

3:05 pm

congrat charm - I'm closing in myself!

3:05 pm

Congratulations, Charm.

3:06 pm

kudos, charm!!!

3:06 pm

congrat - luck wolvie

3:06 pm

congrats charm!

3:06 pm

ty ty. 'Twas a good grid today....

3:06 pm

Tis, yet.

3:06 pm

I'm normally pretty good with obscure words. Pretty good compared to people who don't play Babble, apparently.

3:06 pm

Really? You think so?

3:07 pm

fireworks for me

3:07 pm

Fireworks?

3:07 pm

yay, sha!!

3:07 pm

High five, sha!

3:07 pm

yay, Sha!

3:07 pm

whoo hooo sha!

3:07 pm

there's a fireworks animated graphic at the end :-)

3:07 pm

Aha. I C

3:07 pm

Wolf, I'm not that old. Still have problems with the obscure words. About two months, I'd say.

3:07 pm

you'll see them when you finish the grid Wolfr

3:08 pm

congrats, sha!

3:08 pm

The tile stats area turns into some fireworks when you have completed every bloody word inthe grid.

3:08 pm

bye everyone. Happy babbling and see y'all tomorrow.

3:08 pm

Seeing them is one of the things on my "possible but not very likely" list. Also on my "wanted" list.

3:08 pm

Congrats Sha

3:09 pm

thx all

3:09 pm

WTG sha!

3:09 pm

bye Charm

3:09 pm

bye all happy babbling

3:10 pm

bye bye Charm

3:10 pm

The one thing that you have to remember, Wolfr, is that sometimes the puzzle does consider things to be "abbreviations" and other things, the ones that seem like "abbreviations" are words!

3:10 pm

bye Sha

3:10 pm

bye sha

3:10 pm

fireworks for me!

3:10 pm

bye sha

3:10 pm

3:15 pm

am I leaving?

3:15 pm

Hi, cub. How are you.

3:15 pm

LOL - my mistake

3:15 pm

hi cub

3:15 pm

I wasn't saying goodbye to all of you - just saying goodbye to Mom. If I was saying goodbye to the group, I would say "adios amigos" because it's always masculin and plural when you're talking to a mixed group in Espanol.

3:15 pm

fine

3:15 pm

hi cub

3:15 pm

Yeah, LOL

3:15 pm

lol, just wondering if you knew something i didn't Wolvie! lol

3:16 pm

LOL, it's Wolvie's fault. I was in the grid and looked at the goodbyes... and the rest, is, h i s t o r y.

3:16 pm

im6

3:16 pm

Excuse me, cub?

3:17 pm

altho another phone call. the phone hardly ever rings and today it's like i'm the switchboard or something! sheesh

bronchitis is much better, but i've got RA and i think i may be heading into a flair. and yes, you guys and the grid are a huge help. my immunity is so compromised, i catch everything and sometimes it sends me into a flair.

4:04 pm

how many po 6's?

4:04 pm

sorry, other one

4:04 pm

the only one i have stid (8's i mean), a geometrical shape

4:05 pm

4:05 pm

4:05 pm

go stid

how old r u scarlet, if i may ask

4:06 pm

okay :-) *waiting to celebrate*

brb

4:06 pm

Sure, AD, I am 61, and have had since childhood.

4:06 pm

I have the second kid-carried virus in 5 days, ADHD, it's annoying and frustrating, but I will recover. :-)

4:07 pm

Madi ho 5/12 plural of ho4/5

4:07 pm

last go5/14 anyone?

4:07 pm

got interrupted this morning stid, had to stop and design a web page for the hospital auxiliary (they needed it yesterday), so am somewhat behind.

4:07 pm

thx, reb

4:08 pm

cybernan - how long have you been designing websites?

4:08 pm

go 5,14= g + a h**** with no name

4:08 pm

thanks bubba

4:08 pm

wow nan -- tough to do work like that so fast. Hope it worked right the first time! -- I always end up tweaking the pages a couple times after I load them.

4:08 pm

Nice work, nan.

4:08 pm

since I needed one for my pottery business back in 1996

4:09 pm

down to 30 (I just got the to RE words)

4:09 pm

I'm still a complete Luddite. LOL. I really have to feel my way through the instructions for putting up an icon... what with words such as URL, etc.

4:09 pm

that's cool, do you have a degree in it or just self-taught type stuff?

4:10 pm

wasn't too bad -- just a single page with one table, two graphics, one of which I already had, but a fair amount of typing.

4:11 pm

scarlet... if i could do it, you could do it (put up an icon) believe me

4:11 pm

self-taught -- we've had a pc for 26 years now -- you had to program the first one in basic to get it to do anything.

4:11 pm

Bye for now

4:12 pm

bye bubba -- thanks for the help

4:12 pm

bye, bubba

4:12 pm

later, bubba!

4:12 pm

Thanks, Dorens. I will try hard tonight to get it done. I told Wolvie today that I want to be "normal"... she basically told me "never"... good laugh.

4:12 pm

Bye, Bubba. Thank you for all the clues.

4:12 pm

first he6/21?

4:13 pm

scarlet, i don't know how many of us would even consider ourselves normal... don't know if I'd want to be

4:13 pm

Right you are, Dorens. BTW, that is not a word I'd combine with Babbling anyway...

oh my scarlet, you poor thing. i will be 57 next month. i became symptomatic after the flu 2 years ago. before that, i was still climbing trees w/my grandkids, riding quads and horses, doing woodworking and never sitting still... the ADHD "klid" now i'm in a neck brace, back brace, ankle braces and wrist braces. I broke my back and neck over 20 yrs ago and the RA has disintegrated the fusions and my spine has collapsed. I had a really bad case of Lyme disease and there may be a link w/that. who knows?

i went to a halloween part once as Dr. Abby Normal

4:14 pm

don't take offense to this... you guys are making me feel really young

4:14 pm

Hello all. Can anyone clue me on the ti6,21 or the two ti7's after it?

how old r u? if i may ask arwennn?

4:14 pm

Oh, my Lord, ADHD. You are in much more severe condition than I am... but one's attitude is everything in this world... Bless you.

4:15 pm

adhd.... my sympathies! keep up that attitude, though

4:15 pm

arwenn, you probably are

4:15 pm

just turned 22

4:15 pm

not at t's yet, sorry mkl

4:15 pm

hey mkl... I don't have those yet, but at least one ti 7 starts with metal they used to make cans out of

summer's much better for me, and i am actually much better since taking Plaquenil

4:15 pm

Yep. That's the one I have also.

4:15 pm

he 6/21: first one I have is not there + not off, a similar one ends in not from

4:15 pm

mkl - walk around on t**t** so you don't make noise

4:15 pm

hi, mkl

but, i have been blessed w/ADD which keeps my brain young and alive and have passed for 20 yrs younger than i am.

4:16 pm

mkl... think of Tiny Tim, singing

4:16 pm

Thanks so much. That did all three of them

i think TINPOT should be a word

4:16 pm

they have that ti6/7 and they don't take pitter? grrr.

hi

4:16 pm

you know you've been playing babble too long when you know the go6/27 without thinking twice

4:17 pm

I even had the third letter figured correctly. Just couldn't see the rest.

4:17 pm

need help with the second set of ne 7 & 8's

4:17 pm

One last clue? The first re6,21?

4:17 pm

AD, I don't take meds unless I'm really in the utmost pain. Yes, summer is much better for me, too. But not humidity

arwennn you ARE young...we are not making you FEEL that way lol

plaquenil is not for pain.

4:18 pm

o instead of e as last vowel button

4:18 pm

Hi Button - change the last vowel

4:18 pm

hi jojo

4:18 pm

Is it an anti-inflammatory?

4:18 pm

lol

it helps me not stiffen up and not be able to move if i'm in one position for more than 5 minutes.

4:18 pm

thanks, i will try it....how are you LYNXXX?

4:18 pm

That sounds as though it's a good pharmaceutical, then.

no it is specifically for RA

4:19 pm

RE 6/21 please?

4:19 pm

good Button - trsut you are too

Okay, I need to ask for a little help... I have H 25/25, but the second H, H 0/2.... So that means the two HE6/21 words I have left have to use the second H to start, right? But does that mean they can't use the first E, too?

5:39 pm

firt se5/12 please

5:39 pm

can i get some help with the 2 i's?

5:40 pm

1st se5/12 is what I meant

5:46 pm

And it looks like I was right in my thinking. H 25/25, H2/2

w00t hillary

so I am guessing the he's are hes's then right?

5:48 pm

Nope, Grammaterri1

5:48 pm

no gram - use second e, then double back on yourself...

5:48 pm

or read down for more detailed clue...

5:48 pm

if you're wondering about the right-hand h's gramma, they are both prepositions using the adverb that means not there...

it really doesn't matter to me ( : I just love to find words lol

TO--he is a classic narcissistic personality disorder, so if I put everything in that context, then his words and behaviors are consistent with that diagnosis, BUT he is so DIFFICULT to work with!

6:59 pm

Last 2 re's. (stoopid re's). The 6/21 7/32 combo pretty please?

anyone watching Idol tonite?

how do you know if it's a re or not

shoot i forgot is it on now?

6:59 pm

Hi everyone. Snottage is diverting my attention from more serious problems. I did get a somewhat good report from the scan I had last week. Dealing with a lot of pain from pinched nerve in my neck/shoulder.

6:59 pm

gram: what lever are they? still auditions?

prit near temple

yes prism

san fran tonite I think

7:00 pm

re 6/21: re + opp of close, then plural it

7:00 pm

Doctor wrote me a prescription for Oxycontin, but I am very leery about taking that drug.

nope San antonio

7:00 pm

I love the auditions. I quit watching when they hit LA

i need to find the guy from Bethlehem PA - are they still auditioning?

7:00 pm

almighty, they generally check either lickety's list or Babbler's Anonymous, which will provide the first 2 letters and total pointage

7:00 pm

Bless you inge! Thank ye muchly

7:00 pm

Totally unfair that pitter isn't accepted. I have a cherry pitter that I use every time I cook something with cherries.... harumph....

I love the auditions too

munner sorry to hear

right on erda

7:01 pm

that's a drag, munner

7:01 pm

Hope things improve for you munner.

7:01 pm

Has anyone had a good experience with Oxycontin?

ok peeps - sick and headache is wearing me down - of course, i HAVE to finish no matter what LOL

7:01 pm

gramma, i'm watching in between doing other games

7:01 pm

erda , i am a pitter when my granchildren eat cherries, lol

7:01 pm

Oxycontin is highly addictive.

no munner oxys are bad

7:02 pm

don't know anyone who used it either, munner

7:02 pm

Avoid it like the plague, IMO.

7:02 pm

Andree -- there's a good little gizmo for that purpose... may be hard to find.

I would ask the doc to prescribe something else

7:02 pm

Lori, that's my BIG concern. I think I will just stick with the Oxycodone (Percocet) and tough it out.

7:03 pm

Hello everybody. Munner it's good to have you back in the action. I've taken oxy and it's worked like nothing else. Good drug when you need it.

munner, it's for pinched nerve?

see a chiropracter munner

7:03 pm

I used to have Tylenol expire before I used a bottle!

7:03 pm

I can't tolerate percocets. They make me hallucinate.

7:03 pm

Munner... Hubby was perscribed it after having a stroke. Our good luck was selling it to help pay medical bills.

7:03 pm

Yeah, pinched nerve from swolled lymph nodes.

7:03 pm

Only my 2 cents. Personally, no way, ever. Have a friend for whom it was a gateway to he!!

me too gramma, and sick to my stomach

me too Lori

most of the rehabs are full of oxy patients around here

7:05 pm

I've heard that from a lot of people--the hallucinations and such, but I have been fine using it. It's just not whipping the pain like it used to. But I don't want to get on the road to Hell.

7:05 pm

I am not a medical professional, just my experience.

7:05 pm

Oxycontin is only bad when abused. If you have pain, go for it. It works well.

7:05 pm

When you owe more in hospital bills than what you owe on the house & you have insurance, you do what you can to survive

7:05 pm

I knew that there would be many of you who would have some thoughtful advice for me.

7:06 pm

i don't have any knowledge to share, munner, but i do hope you feel better soon

still chronic pain is hellof its own

7:06 pm

I honestly believe 3/4ths of these words are made up!! Aaarrrggghhhh!

7:07 pm

yes, munner, get better soon

7:07 pm

me too smd

wow this chick can sing bonnie raitt better than bonnie raitt

7:07 pm

i liked her a lot

the judges don't care for her but she is going

I wanted to hear her belt the chorus, I bet she could

i've gotten to the point i can TELL what types he likes.

7:09 pm

HE 8 and 9?? please.

7:09 pm

Thanks for kind thoughts everyone. Babble is a great place to drown one's troubles. Need to break now to call our littlest granddaughter who is one year old today. She is the little beauty I'm used for my icon.
