as a nurse, you must know how resilient kids are. When I was 5 I had mastoid surgeriesw, 5 of them one after the other but I remember not feeling hard done by
i've made myself the official babble cheerleader lol
wow helen, that's amazing
that was addressed to ADHD
true jilli. my husband had those surgeries, as did my son, the one whose son fractured his leg
yipes 115
flosey - i've been playing tangleword most of the evening - it's like speed babble :)

I hate speedy challenges! Slow but sure here
See, I now have all of 22 words - lol!
ah jilli - beautiful - red sails in the sunset!
haha, 31, Jilli
go jili go!
amiku, you're a whiz!
i took him outside yesterday for a walk (it got up to 70 degrees and sunny) and he threw ice into the sewer grids on the roadside, visited his cousin 5 houses away, watched him get off the bus, he's five also and they r in the same kindergarten class... his attitude is so changed now. i'm just so glad he's not hurting physically too much any more... it pained me so to see him suffer and the screams will haunt me forever
mi 9/10
Haha, I just found a junk load of plurals
Hello all!
nice Bernabo!!!!
sorry... just venting. tx for asking and sending well wishes.
how the hell you guys get 140 straight away i'll never know

jilli: hopefully they'll return to the mothership and stop making us look bad >.>
Hi jilli and helen! it was a lovely day, I got to spend with my best friend who lives 80 mi. away. We played rock videos and ate chinese food and watched a crazy movie. It was totally fun!
thx Dr... got the mi9/10
this is my last grid unti Monday eve. I'm going out of town with a friend, leaving in the morning
chic - what? did you turn 13? LOL
anyone found the 10 yet?
ADHD -- when I had all those surgeries my dad taught me how to read and it resulted in making me graduate from Lower Kindergarten to Upper Kindergarten plus many other advances which were considered ok in those days
are you kids having a sleepover now?
not yet ADHD
yep
drb did
i thought dr said mi 10
thanx, ADHD!
gasp there are a lot of sevens
DR. said mi/9
i think
amiku -- great analysis! LOL!
i found that 9!
its a mi 9/10
we were 'children of the '60's' and never gave it up!
mi 10/105
wow jilli... i wish that could be the case for Colin, but he's an ADD kid and hopefully a tutor, which starts on MOnday, will help him to just get through kinder. otherwise he will repeat. he's a very young 5
wow nice cyber!
found the 9, but still can't see the 10
mi9/10?????
ever seen the movie Jerry McGuire?
well, then i must have the other 9, cause mine won't pluralize :(
mi 9/66, mi 9/84
he resembles very much and acts exactly like the little blonde kid
yeah, found the other 9
I have, ADHD..
aha - i have the 66
the only mi i found is a 5!! lol
sheesh, nan, you've got both 9s already!
chic - sounds like a great day - all play, yay!
I resemble that mi 9/66!
yippppy found the 2 mi 9s and the mi 10 ty DR

phantom -- misasma, or should I say miasma -- miasma
I GOT THE TEN I GOT THE TEN

I wonder why the hawaiian goose can't be pluralized?
in7
what the heck is a hawaiian goose?
did someone say there were 2 ha 7s?
seeing drb's icon reminds me i have 'lost' on tape to watch
ADHD, its' a babblet
Yeah, but I already heard about the surprising connection, so I was not surprised
what's a babblet?
3 in7's
3 in7's
i didn't hear about it - so don't say - but was it surprising when you first heard it or just marketing?
hot rumor because somebody put two and two together and made a connection
a babblet is a real word common to babble and uncommon everywhere else
Hi all! anyone got the 10 yet?
several of us
thanks HK
yes President
Hey mrp! yes a bunch of us have the 10..
mi10/105
hiya mrp!
yes mrP it's a 9/10 combo. think dictionary
cool! will keep searching
ADHD -- a babblet is an unfamiliar word which shows up frequently, such as inia (the hairy-nosed dolphin) or anoa (the Celebes buffalo) and the Hawaiian goose which is here
mrp, thanx for the email.. did i tell you I can get into Lit now on this 'puter?
ma 8
hi mrp
i have 0 8's & 95 4's :)
tx jilli. now i'll just have to figure out what that goose is and keep it stored in the babble section of my brain
i should try & put some of those 4's together, see if i can get some 8's that way
i seem to do much betterr with the larger words
there ya go HK
hi jilli and helen and chic and adhd and monkey and drbern et al
how does one consume food incorrectly???
ADHD -- ne4/4
adhd, I don't want to think about that
howdy mr president *curtsies*
it's a word and i don't believe it makes sense
an7
I don't believe it exists, even
oof, I just noticed there are 26 7-letter words!
it's in the grid jilli
yes, ADHD, I got it but still don't believe it
don't think i'll stick it out to mediocrity, jilli
well maybe connotes not using the proper flatware or chewing like a cow
have an 7 x2, but can't spot the 8
i think misdeed should be a word
I have to get up early so I quit for now -- again a busy day coming up and no chance of finishing. Too many biggies lately IMHO
i'm still trying to find the mi8
what does imho mean jilli?
there is no mi8 ??
ADHD, I agree about misdeed but there's only one d in the grid
lol oh duh
IMHO -- In My Humble Opinion ;)
santa is not a word but the first re 8 would describe him....
greyed the i's
it's almost 2 am, maybe i should try to get back to sleep
good nite jili
Jilli, humble?
teehee, chic :D
GO HUG-A GO HUG-A RAH RAH RAH

re7x2
how is arfed not a word? My dog arfed earlier today
which 8's have been called, please?
the only 8 I have is de8/60
de, re and i think mi
my 2 yr old granddaughter says she arted too lol
have the de and re -- there is also an an, but I haven't found it
someone said the re8 describes Santa, but i can't find it
adhd, he holds them so he is one
re 8 is a compound word
oh i got it i got it
was looking for something meaning portly
not thinking about what he does
I was looking for something that started with the colour he wears
funny how we all have different takes on the same clue
cannot find that an8
think i'm looking in the wrong place.. hmmm
I thought it would begin the same way as one of the an 7's, but haven't come up with it yet
the AN nan?
yes
it begins with a common prefix meaning against
i am so not up to snuff with you guys! i have 151 words, only 1 9, only 1 8, and no an's at all!
another santa word clue please?
what does Santa hold onto when he's in his sleigh?
i've only got 102 words, but i'm better at the big ones
plus his gender
when flying his sleigh, he holds them, so he is one. compound word...a 5 + 3
ha! got it! thanks Dispatch, ADHD, Prism!
can't see any a's from second row..must be blind
i can go to sleep now :)
ahas
so does the an 8 mean against something?
nitey nite monkey. sleep tight. don't let the bed bugs bite.
babs: think british bum
yes.
nan - against + Doris Day's theme song - Que ****
gd clue huga. i was gonna say against blood
well who would be against that?
but i'm thinking like a nurse now lol
ty adhd
aaaah. very good clue Hugabugs
whatever will be, will be
ty hugs
I'm against whatever will be.
lol prism
the future's not ours to see...
the an6/7 combo: think a sleek, black jungle cat, minus the first letter
(unless you're psychic)
i learned that song in spanish in the third grade
good one ADHD....thanks
still have only two 8 words....ack.
my uncle told me (when I was 10) that he was PHYSIC
oh thank you adhd!
oh boy... i done a good clue!!!
and at 10, he could probably fool you enough for you to believe him!
hey guys, on Sat. i'll have been here for 2 months!!!!
phantom: antihistamine
and i'm just a singin' along now!
i had no idea what physic meant, my teacher must've thought he had bowel problems when i went to school and bragged about my uncle
from where ADHD?
you mean on Babble?
lol monkey!
okay- almost 1:30 am, gotta start closing up shop now

Hi Con..
pleasure BW - thanks for the count clue
Hi ConXshun
just because, con. as always!
Who is your icon, Atalante?
*gasps* a si4/5
You can tell the Star Wars movies didn't make an impact on me...
lol bad douglas bad bad! SW = important! :):)
harumph! ;() I thought I'd found A REALY biggy there...
Good morning all - big task ahead today.... Douglas, Star Wars couldn't make an impact on me because I've never seen any of the films...
morning haz!
good morning Haz
*gasp*
Can someone revive Atalante?
And hope not everyone else is as shocked!
I've never seen Star Wars either.
*Sends Luke over to revive her with a kiss*
*faints*
Hiya haz
*sends Wookie over to pick her up and place her gently on the sofa*
No Lord of the Rings either (might as well get all the confessions out)
I've seen them but obviously not as excited by them as some !
But surely you've read the books, Haz...
No, not even them. Any sort of fantasy leaves me completely cold.....
Holy-kabolie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Haz, you and I are in the same boat.
Morning all - I've never watched Star Wars either and never read or seen Harry Potter either!
I am not alone, then. I knew there had to be others.
*runs away crying*
In todays world a little fantasy is a good thing!!
Hi JFB
These are truly shocking confessions indeed! What next, things involving giraffes and whipped cream?
I have to agree Hodag, but I escape in word games.
How did you Know Douglas? lol
It would seem there are two mi9's...
Doulgas! How did you know?
word games are good.
Lucky guess...
many giraffes in northern ireland, are there?
You have me a little concerned Douglas! :0
You'd be surprised.
there are some giraffes in kent, I know that
And, of course, with our dairy industry, we're famous for whipped cream.
Good morning all. Haz, to the penalty box! :-)
Haz, you'll get a reputation.
oops Haz
Clotted cream doesn't work so well but it tastes better!!
So, I see, but Douglas mentioned the dairy product first, so by rights he should join me.
Joining Haz in penalty box...you too JFB...it's getting a little crowded in ****
Suggesting we're overweight, Douglas?
He already Has a reputation!
but without giraffes or the dairy products... please!
Oooh. Then you'll have company with JFB and Douglas!
No Haz, there usually isn't three in the penalty box at one time...
Cosy!!
Three's company...
I don't know, Douglas, sometimes, depending on what's on offerto eat, I've seen crowd control police having to be brought in.
LOL
That reminds me...brb as I get some carrots and hummus...
Well, that'll clear the penalty box for sure...
Or wait, is that for the giraffes? They like acacia leaves.
There's a restaurant here in town called Felafel King...I like their hummus better than the national brands...more garlic...
Would you like the recipe for making it at home? Very easy with a can of garbanzo beans
Then, that's the end of it for you and me, Douglas. I loathe garlic...... it should be sold as a contraceptive.
That would be nice ARB...
I've never heard of garbanza beans. do they have another name?
morning again, back for the rest...
also known as chick-peas...
Cece beans
They used to be called garbage beans but they found they didn't sell well.
hello sprite *hug* :)
Good morning sprite.
ARb I would like the recipe if you would send it to me! My Email is in the profile
Hello sprite...
hey ConX *hugs right back*
I know them as chick peas...
good morning everyone, just a five min look in to see how grid is will have to come back later:)
hello Sprite!
hello sprite
Now chick peas I've heard of - garbanza beans sounds so much more exotic though!
same for me please, ARB!a I lovvvvve garlic
you taking over my small shift sprite, while I get dressed?
good morning Jean
Hi sprite and Jean
hello jean
fine with me, ConX, though I like your company ;)
you'll like me better when I'm nice and clean and smelling sweet! ;)
I love you no matter what, ConX, don't you know that?
Must go as well - representing the far flung family at a funeral today. bbl
... well I wil like me better, anyway...
bye JFB:)
:) ty sprite....
good luck then, JFB, hope it is not too intense
bye JFB

Bye JFB - drive carefully.
enjoy the shower, ConX :)
bye jfb - all the best

Its a neighbour of my late parents - they lived next door to each other for over 40 years. But she was 96 and had dementia.
time for me to take a break also......bye :)
Bye hodag.
Doug, send me an email with your address, and I'll send you the recipe.
bye hodag:)
so sad JFB:(
must dash also bbl happy babbling everyone:)
Bye jean - see you later, especially with a grid this size.
Done, ARB...
Okay, squeezing out of the penalty box, and heading off to do useful things..... Don't forget to muck out after the giraffe, Douglas.
bye Haz
Getting hose and disinfectant...
Good man! See you later....
Sorry, was way deep in the grid and the email, bye all leavers! ARB, I sent you an email as well, to beg for the recipe :)
All the words I see are words I've already entered...coming back for another try later...
bye Douglas
bye Doug

how is he
an 8/40
thanks arb. *searching*
fine op on mondaywill stay in hos 1 nite

keep in touch so we know how he is
sounds good to me sprite
hows your legs
aaah... 114 left...
cant get the mi9,s
its not my feet now it is the flue we both had it realy bad but getting there
mi9/65 is a villain
Fran, I have re8/45 and re8/40
mi9/84 is explaining something improperly...

mi 9/66 is a ivillanous person
an8 : they should prevent you getting ill
Sprite, a clue on the re 8/40, please

Any clue for the sa 7/32?
si7/32 looks like a plural but seems to have no singular. What you do in a chair + female chicks
sA 7/32, please
sa7/32 is a coin, must look up from where
lol, I posted the clue for the si7 before I even read your question, ARB - thought it was a hard to find word
sa7/32 : former coin of Latvia, the 100th part of a lat. If you think of a french coin and write it very wrong, it could come out like this.
found those mi,s thanks
thank you Sprite.
yvw :)
got to go to work, bye all. bye mum and larli.
bye oggy
goodnight fran
bye darling xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
goodbye oggy

Good day Babble Team!
hi Scrabbler :)
Yikes---a large grid!
yup, biggish and not overall friendly. Has got lots of nice words though.
I will realx for a bit then I have to make hospital rounds before I go to the office.
sorry by oggy
sounds like a busy day ahead, Scrabbler
Yep, but I am in Babble Land now so I am happy and safe.
and very welcome :)
hi all. big grid and only a half hour to tackle it!
:-)
hi kanga - that is a bit tight, lol
may be able to steal a little more time after sleep....
LOL, kanga---set a goal---50% perhaps?
i'm happy to aim low, scrabbler. been a looonnng day.
Guten Morgne, I got only 10 minutes now.
so... just relax and let the words come to you :)
neat
even tighter than me!
Hi Inge---dive in!
hi inge, yes it is, lol
hi inge hi y'all
Hi Mousey!
hi mousey
hi mousey.
man i feel crapy
that's not good mousey.
cough cough!!
need a hankie, mousey?
Are you sick or just trying to wake up?
hope you will feel better very soon :(
Fireworks
Yuck, a cold!
Yahooo Angel!!
yay Angel! WTG!
yay, angelsong!
sc more than sick a BIG fever!
yay angel
But a fever is your friend! A fever is how your immune system fights the germs off. A fever is not bad at all.
COUGH COUGH!!!
true Scrabbler, but it definitely can make you feel crappy :)
i've had this fever for 5 days and its geting worse>
Bye, all. Going to work a Celtic Pops concert with the DSO. NO instrument. Just working as an usher supervsior. See you all later
doctor, mousey?
shouldn't you be in bed then, mousey?
bye inge.
Help your body with the battle, mousey---rest, drink a lot of fluids. Well, now it is time to see the doctor to make sure you don't have pneumonia.
have fun, inge :)
bye inge
Sounds fun, Inge. Celtic music!
no sprite my mom works at te school and she's an aide but today she has to teach young four's
If your fever hs been there more than 4-5 days you should get checked out, mousey
wow kanga, are that your kids? They are just great!
thanks sprite. that is them. on a great trip to the zoo.
they are happy kids, I can tell just by looking at them. Wonderful job, mum :)
wish i could take all the credit! but they have a great dad too.
COUGH COUGH!!!!
I just looked at the word stats---2 9's and a 10!
brb
that's even better, kanga :) Scrabbler: yes, isn't it fun :)
sorry, mousey. have you seen a doctor? i'm beginning to worry about you.
no
how old are you, mousey?
im not telling
ok
you should listen to scrabbler! she says you should see a doctor, and i agree. (and that is my mother voice.)
i know
Cough + fever for > 4-5 days makes me suspicious for pneumonia. Maybe you have a cold or the flu, but it is time to get checked. Do your parents know how yucky you feel?
fireworks. Off to sudoku, will look in every now and then to see if someone needs clues :)
yay sprite!
Wow, great work, Sprite!!
yes
my foot is asleep
temporary, or permanent?
Change your position, mousey.
yay my foot isnt asleep anymore
bye all
great sprite xxxxxxx
rest and fluids, mousey! and a doctor.
See, mousey, a mother and a pediatrician are giving you advice. We are worried about you because we care!
i think also because i'm bossy, scrabbler. but don't tell anyone.
Aren't all mothers bossy, kanga? LOL
only effective ones, scrabbler!
so totally true :)
You are right, I see lots of wimpy parents that allow their kids to be in charge--it makes me angry and sad.
i sense a lot of effective mothers here. :)
mind you, don't know how long i can keep the upper hand with my youngest. a firey little handful, that one.
I am having fun with this grid despite its size--but I am slowing down now after finding 115 words rather quickly
your right kanga my kids are grown up now but a little disapline goes a long way so good on you mumsxxxxxxxxx
recently had a kid over to play here with parents like that. Took me about 10 minutes to decide to tell him exactly where the boundaries are in MY house. He rebelled, then relaxed and started playing. He hugged me when he left. I am pretty sure that was because he felt safe, knowing where the boundaries are.
Be tough, kanga, don't reveal any weakness!
lucky she's adorable with it!
excuse the spelling
Good for you, sprite--that kid appreciated your discipline
tearing my hair out here. can anyone clue those long mi words?
apparently :) Must be off for a bit, my son needs lunch!
sprite, boundaries always make me feel better too!
mi9/66 someone who does bad things mi9/84 - 10/105 give a wrong meaning of something
I found, er, my monkey found mi6=mi + th5 minus last letter
I found mi9,66!
couldn't see that one for looking, sprite! thanks.
Now, the other mi9 and the 10............
mis + ????
yes Scrabbler
Hi Kanga
many thanks, sprite! + find the meaning of a word.
My day will go so much better if I find the other mi9 and 10---hint, hint, ;)
think of what you do to explain the meaning of a word, scrabbler
hi lynxxx. how are you?
good thanks kanga - and you? hot up there? stinker today
I have just had a nasty shock - saw the total words today. I don't know if I can be bothered. 24 re's to start with!
not too bad, lynxxx. just had to spend too much of it in dark lecture theatres.
Aim for 50%, ExWren
I am still thinking, bookgirl---
Hi exWren - needs a few hours but OK
ex-wren, I just got 148 words in 30 minutes--you can do it!!
Kanga - giving or receiving?
you look up a de.... in a dictionary, scrabbler
oooohhhh, I think I see it
i've gone back to study, lynxxx. finally doing the art degree i always wanted.
go scrabbler1
TY, TY, bookgirl--I saw the de6 and de7!!
OK, I'l think about it. I might have a cup of tea first
good for you Kanga - are you going to teach at the end or is it just for yourself?
thanks, bookgrrl!!
hoping to produce art, lynxxx!
Life is good now--I found the 9's and the 10, and 124 words altogether. Off for a long day of work now. TY for clues!
you're welcome...
bye, scrabbler
and i'm out of here too. a big day tomorrow, grandfriends' day at my daughter's school.
bye, kanga
Bye Scrabbler & Kanga - have a good day & night respectively

howdy lyn!! how r ya?
ADHD -- i think it is a legal babble word, but its not in the puzzle today
'coz its not in the grid?
u r right!!! isn't that what u guys call a phantom word?
exactly. :)
absolutely
i think ahas should be allowed too. harumph
my phantom word is *gulp*
i like to choose colored monkeys when our theme is a color... to help us with the grid
good one Hi There!
G'd morning Babblers!
do we have any ah words today?
Looks like being a tea totaller won't cut it to complete this grid!
just one
and you'll never find it
ah6.24 - clue @ 7.02
we had torrents of rain around 4 am. up to 10 inches of snow is on it's way. yesterday's 70 degrees and sunshine was such a tease
tx lyn
believe it or not, i had that AH6, because theres a band called the AH6 Theory... hehe
24 freakin' re words. Ack!
oooooooookay. i got it lyn and thank you... what a wHIMSicAl word that is no?
Ad, that must be the same weather maker that is headed toward us. :(
i think that weathermaker should get fired for teasing us. where r you lori? I'm in western CT
Southwest Nova Scotia, we often get NE weather fronts.
it hit 80 here yesterday, but its supposed to be in the 40s for this weekend. *harumph*
yesterday it was 80 in Maryland, 70 here, it will be 32 tomorrow. oh... i see that is close to you evandine
AD, by definition, is Conn considered part of New England?
yes, i live in MD, work in DC
yes it is Lori. Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Deleware
my son used to live in Lothian MD and work in Anapolis and DC
i live very near annapolis. :)
That's what we were always taught ins chool, but one time, I was corrected by an 'Upper Conn" resident, that it was not N.E.... :(
hello fellow babblers
i love maryland. the weather is a little milder than here, the countryside is flatter, but very nice. Do you know where Lothian is? it's 45 min. from Anapolis
G'd mornign Annie.
i kinda-sorta know where lothian is, yeah
hi lori
i've not met anyone yet who knows where it is. i took the train into Carolton, which is less than 15 min. from Lothian
We used to visit various relatives in NE every fall. I miss those trips. Would like to make it down there again, some time soon.
yeah, new carrollton is a fairly central station. lothian is a fairly small town, right?
Is this grid laden with weird words, or is it just the various suffix meltdowns that will frustrate me?
all of that Lori
Oh joy.
brb all, gonna whip up some breakfast...
im hungry
***Lori hands Krummets a bagel***
harden
fanx lori

mi9/66 - a criminal or wrongdoer mi9/84, to describe something wrongly, mi10/105 - verb form of previous mi9
I hope so, Mom, but I'm not really a speed merchant!
lol, Haz, how about before the day is over then.
thanks haz!
Oh, that's a reasonable sort of target, Mom.
Thanks for the mi's HAz. On a big grid, I am sometimes a shamelesss clue thief.
Thanks Haz, for the mi clues. Found the first one off to hunt for the other 2.
No such thing as a clue thief if they're freely offered. You're a clue-taking opportunity operative.
hi everyone! : )
G'd morning TO
Hi Temple Owl.
Hello TO - nice to see you!
hi Temple!!!
likewise. and i hope you now see my red icon.
DRAT!!!!! I tried to change my icon to red and I CANT do it
I see it now I've clicked on the profile.
hi annie! i see haz and mom and lorip and swa and evan and krum and jean....

Is TO cleverly disguised as Miss Fran, my favorite Romper Room host? :)

i am stillpondering the wrong actor clue
hmmm haz i cant get the mi, describe wrongly
cubschick, I did? hmmm
cubs, lol, see it, and i still mean it

Think of another word, again beginning with de which is used to describe, to put into type, to categorise.
:)
i hace decided to tackle the m words first
And then put the almost spinster word in front..
criminal or wrongdoer.......hmmmmmmmmmmm
GOt it
If de cops find you speeding you will get de6/30
i have to wrongdoer, its the other one
*the
deticket?

try "to give the wrong meaning for a word"
Haz, Got it, thanks!
Great!

You're welcome swa.
Got them, thanks Haz. It was de cops that got the other 2 for me.
Haz, I name thee Saint Hazel the Clueist
Thank you Annie!
Better go eat breakfast, I can't concentrate with all this growling going on. See everyone later.
enjoy, Mom
bbl all
bye temple
thanks Annie Bye Temple Owl
need 199...often notice I can get 1/2 done and then grind to a halt..anyone else have that problem?
totally babs
i still have 225 left though!
all the time babs
count me in, babs
Sometimes it's good to take a break and come back to it - only problem with one this size is that you forget what you've already entered!
that''s usually when I quit and get on with life
On a grid like this, I always wander in and out. Imperative to my mental health.....
Not to mention the spreading rear end.... (mine)
*flops back in* tired me, tired hobbit
Hello tired Atalante.
hi atalante
long walk, gorgeously long walk, but hot and long!
Hello, Ata.
hey ata
G'd morning Atlante
vi! hi!
Hot sounds kind of nice, actually!
wish it was hot here!!! its well sunny but cold! darn english weather
was gorgeously hot here yesterday -- 80 degrees F! but supposed to plummet down to the 40s for this weekend. *UGH*
80! oh my life ur so lucky!
blooming hot down here in Kent! wore t-shirt and shorts to take pup out!
we hit 75 - paradise! but we're expecting snow this weekend. so sad.
April may be the cruellest month, but March is pretty mean, too.
seriously! ah ata! im in surrey. theres sun but no heat. well a bit but only if ur in the direct sunlight!
so do most of you who get stuck resort to lists, dictionaries, etc?
we're always (nearly always) a few degrees hotter down here than anywhere nearby! dunno why!
Babs - I use Lickety's List once I've done all I can on my own, and then use morewords.com for the rest.
our winter has been nutty -- we were still hitting 70 in january, then it plummetted down and we were getting snow in the strangest places....hot-cold-hot-cold... im not a fan of winter, but i wish it would just pick a season!
babs - i rely on licket's & the clues of the fellow babblers.
how does morewords.com help haz? never tried that one
I've done that...but not as much fun...I don't get how some are able to get through huge grids without that kind of help!
Yeah, we had the same wierd weather - much too hot in January, much too cold in February. I worry about the plants.
You basically type in as many of the letters as you know, leave gaps for the rest and it brings up lists of words. I did a languages degree so lists of words don't bother me....
ahhh, sounds good
But everyone has their own way of doing the grid - lots just ask for clues for the missing ones.
whew! anyone see the 9/11 confession news?
yeah im all lickety and other clues
http://www.buffalonews.com/180/story/3 2912.html
clues? lists? morewords? bah humbug!!
LOL
You know you love the clues, Ata!
ohmygoodness i cant believe i didnt get ea4 to consume!
bah humbug it is
i'm not really here
*grins* just being annoying for hurshy. ah there she is!
Where are you then, hursh?
G'd morning hurshy who isn't really here.... :)
Hi everyone
like my star trek icon hurshy?
Hi hursh, was asking about you yesterday, wondering how you are doing
Hello periwinkle.
Troublemaker!
hi peri
G'd morning Peri
Now all the paranoid babblers will be thinking Vicuna is talking about them....
where do you find lickity's list?
ohhh you ata you.
i'm doing ok for now peri.
thanks.
ok hursh, just checking :)
mane
Only those with guilt consciences, Haz! But I was referring to Ata.
so so, what's this 9/11 confession babs was talking about
oh sorry
*guilty*
blame me *sigh* why does everyone always blame me? LOL
its been at least 2 days since i've done that
Well, Ata, you look like someone who would turn into Darth Vader. Isn't that reason enough for suspicion?
Darth Vader rocks! He could banish all re words from all grids!
hello again - please may i have a clue for the cr6/24 - the last cr6
hehe
nono- lickety's is in the links at the bottom of the page.
But he wouldn't. He'd make them ALL re words, just to torment us.
not if we all pretended to *love* re words
thanks Cubs
but he would read our minds Ata so that wouldn't work
never, never, never love re's
hmmmmm true *considers*
"Please, Brer Vader, please don't throw us in the re patch!"
got to go now, going line dancing!
cr6/24 - a line in the trousers pronounced Humphrey Bogart style.
he'd banish re's if the Emperor told him to ...
hi ursh, cr + double vowel + quiet
Or cr plus a double helping of a vowel, then the beginning of not he but ***.
*whispers* whats humphrey bogart style?
The Emperor is stupid.
haz, loved your bogart clue
"All the lines in all the trousers don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world."
The en 6 is escaping my sharp focus.... Help please?
Thanks Annie - had a crisis of confidence with it, so I'm glad it worked.
Ata, bogart had a lisp....lol vicuna
ah ty annie!
hello all, confused weather here. pouring first, now snowing!
thanks to haz, i'm now *hearing* you all as if you were bogart.
or sean connery style
Oh, if only I looked like Ingrid Bergmann....
hi nutsy, snowing, the sun is shining here
bah, who wants the boring sun when you can have fluffy, cold, frigid icky snow
hmm....I guess manseed isn't a real word
Ihave de8/60 and an8/40 may I have clues for the other 8's please
Only on the Colbert Report, I guess, chiley.
nut, you two little cuties in red!
haz..go to google if you want to see info on confession re. 911 and othr terrorist attacks
Sorry, peri, can't help with the 8 letters yet.
yeah...but since truthiness made it into the dictionary, manseed will eventually make it too
aye, cuties we be annie!
can u repost that buffalo news website so i can go on it please?
http://www.buffalonews.com/180/story/3 2912.html
i only have one 8 peri

an8/40 (periwinkle) - one who is against the singing of a famous Doris Day song.
lol, good clue, Haz!
thanks Haz, that is one of the 8's I already have
nice clue haz
In reality it's the latin plural of what is used as an antidote in poisoning cases
clever clue though Haz
and haz just gave you half of the word :P
dont know the doris day song haz
de8 plural of de7/44
Sorry peri, didn't take note of the 8's you already had....
Phone rang. Did someone clue the en 6?
spanish for what will be will be, swa
that's okay Haz, patiently waiting for clues for the ones I don't have :)
en6 - to put someone into slavery, Russian peasant style.
thanks pab and haz

pab -- yep!
yup!
yip!
that is a lovely definition, unfortunately i'll never be able to use it
yop?
yap?
I can't say I've ever encountered the stuff.
yap.
And sometimes yyp.
yyp
great minds Vicuna
Great minds? Where?
haz is here ... hurshy is here .... :P
vicuna -- theyre still in bed asleep. because great minds are smart enough to know that thats the way to do things. :)
oh man - good morning all
Sometimes "great mind" is a synonym for "big head."
(Not in the case of Haz and hursh, of course.)

Big heads need LOTS of food. That may be why I'm hungry all the time.

I googled the goat and have read about every other animal in the Himalayas, but never a goat. Bummer.
sounds like a sticky substance merk, just put an h in there
I'm sure more 8's must have been called since last night -- have an, de and re ?
oops
i got the himalayan one but not the hawaiian
ty, I babbled the word just now and he is also in South Africa. And you're right, it's a babblet.
clt - the hawaiian uses the same 2 letters, twice - almost like the number before 10
ma 8 nan - plural bug
it's a shaggy thing, merk -- somewhat like our Rocky Mountain goat, but not white.
clue for the re8 please
ah -- thanks, wolvie -- missed that plural
i need that too pab
Meaningless protest over the presence of a Sanskrit word in the dictionary...
And let's not forget the sea birds are there, too.
Oh, hello everyone...
any help with mi9,66 please?
hi doug
wonder what the last 8 is -- another re or de, do you think?
I need a clue for the re 8 you have nan
Hello Wolvie
mi9: depraved, evil person.
It's a vile, villainous kind of person, ricky...
Is another word hiding in the mi 8?
re 8: descriptive of a coachman (or santa) -- compound word
thanks cybernan
yes merk - an ma 6
mi 8?
mi 8?
is there and mi 8?
I must be dense. I didn't get the re8 clue from Nan or the ma 6 in the mi 8.
le sigh - I don't get that coachman re 8, and I have to go. bbl
ma 6 - oh - I'm sorry merk, the ma 6 is in the ma 8 - i must have read your question incorrectly
merk we don't have an mi 8 -- we have ma 8 -- is there an mi 8?
wolvie -- think about what the coachman holds in his hands
oh man - ty nan
Oops, it's an mi 9. So the ma 6 is in the ma 9. Gottcha.
I would NEVER have thought that could be a word
ma 6 is in the ma 8
lol -- how long have you been playing this game, wolvie?
busy looking for that mi 8 now
Obama said John Edwards is "kind of cute."
Did you find the mi 8 yet, nan? I'm looking, too.

thank you
Hello raelite...
yw
hi douglas

yw :o)
Thanks, Jen. My coffee was too weak this morning. I'm looking for the mi 9, the first one.

Merk, second mi 9 is to give wrong meaning
ty

Antares is in the grid...
Ogden Nash wrote...
"Should you behold a panther crouch, Prepare to say 'Ouch.' Better yet, if called by a panther, Don't ******."
love it Douglas, Ogden Nash is one of my favorites
Upon further review, those are the last four lines of a six line poem...
The panther is like a leopard, Except it hasn't been peppered.

***Lori stomps off, annoyed at herself***
or a camel's hump
not using lickety -- just bj's 2 letter count, so don't know where it comes
lori, lori come back, come back - i'll hit you with a fish if you want.....
Come back Lori - no room for artistic temperament here!
got it, thanks, merk
Please do TO. Honestly, that is like, embarassing beyond words. I said to myself, "self, that can't be pluraled, because it doesn't connect". ***sigh***

Afternoon all - someone encourage me to start this goliath of a puzzle!

Later TO
nan I clued that at 12:00
re7/28 - use four letters of what is used in the making of cheese, then add a body of water, rearranged.
I didn't see The Departed, but I understand the song "I'm Shipping Up To Boston" was played at various places in the movie...
Go puptone, Go!
re8/40 is the plural.
thanks, haz
thanks haz!
Glad the clue worked!
Thanx Doug - will start now - and it's your fault if I can't finish (just kidding)
hmmm... I'm from Wisconsin, but I'll admit that I have no idea about that "making of cheese" hint. however, I do now want some cheese.
Dropkick Murphys are loud, lusty and full-throated with some concertina flavoring...
ty Haz! for the re7/8
time to get up and move around, bbl happy babbling everyone
redshoes - if you have the previous re5/10 (structured as the Red Square embalmed dictator) use the third letter in it twice.
is there an er 5-6 combo?
I've got The Red Dwarf logo as my icon, and now "Tongue Tied" is playing......
There is, cybernan, though find it quickly before someone rubs it out.
got it -- thanks
I'll take the fish now
wow...thanks haz. I actually got that. good job. =)
maybe a butt in the rear from the himalayan goat would be more useful!
hello everyone
Well done redshoes.
HI, back in time to get the clue for the re8, thanks Haz
kerins3 here
still missing two 8's
Hello kerins3.
can anyone give me some help with this puzzle?
do you have an8/40 against vaccines?
I have all the 8 letters now, peri - which ones do you have?
noo :-
8's so far: an, de, mi, re
:-\
<8((()))>< for nan...
and de8/60 those who explain meanings of words?
That's a little general, kerins...
ma8/45
an eight ltter clue?
kerins - the object of the game is to find as many words of four letters or more which touch each other in the grid. You'll find the rules in Help above. Then just begin finding words, and entering them in the add word section. I hope you enjoy the game.
But Uneaixoise just gave two highly specific clues...
nan there are 2 re8, Haz just gave a clue for it b4
in7/32 please
89 words left, and feels like a kazillion....
i know im new at this kinda confused but i do love the game haz-thanks for the help
kerins, if you need to know how to play check out the help page and Babbler4Dummies link under friends of babble below the stats box
the in 7 is a plural Peri.
in7/32 stitched parts of pants
in7/32 - in plus the plural of what holds clothes together.
Do you have any words yet kerins?
thanks you cybernan
thanks Haz, had the singular but forgot to pluralize
ma8 please
yea i have 19 words :-[
ma8 - is the plural of the praying/preying? insect ma6
plural of ma6, peri
Ma8 plural of ma 6/21
re 8? missed haz's clue -- just have the coachman one
I believe it's praying, Haz...
amke that 21
thaks Dogulas but I guess I don't have the right ma6 yet
sorry make that 21
woohoo
clue on the i in the first row please
ma8 plural of preying insect
princess, last part of mi 6/24, if you have it
it5/12 - takes the m from the alternatively spelt maternal figure (mi6)
Nan, Haz clued it as first 4 of cheese enzyme + anagram of ocean
off for now i think. maybe take another bash at it later on. thanksies everyone for the helpage! :)
Well, this is a rather nasty grid to start on...most grids don't have this many words...on the other hand, you can extend quite a few words, because there are two s's, an er, an ed, etc.
sorry dont have that one
and "est"
MsPrincess - mi6 - spelt like the maternal figure, replacing one vowel only
Yes, what she said...
it 5/12: a snake will sl****** through the grass
ty, mymuse -- 8's are done
bye everone :):)
have fun and good luck <3
Bye kerins.
may I have a clue for the re8/45 please
Don't be a stranger, kerins, people are quite nice here...
thanks everyone got it
does anyone have either of the mi/9 s?
I have all the biggies, if anyone needs cluez........
mi9/84 give meaning of words incorrectly
re8/45 - describes a male who takes control of a horse with appropriate equipment
:) cya'll
thanks Haz
mi9/66 villain, evildoer
You're welcome, peri.
gah... the only 8 I have left is those against medicine or something clued like that... but I can only get the first 4 letters... =(
got the first mi 9 thanks
can't find the ma8
The last part is a rearrangement of the British slang for butt (ar4/4)
peri, do you have the ma6? it's the plural
plural of the praying insect
ma8= praying ma******......
plural of religious insect
peri - don't forget to add a vowel and a plural lettter to get the 8
thanks Haz, scrolled down and saw your clue, thanks movieman too
thanks have all the 8's now
I'm gonna' tackle the re's. ***Cover me, I'm going in***
what's the ha4/5 after Grettel's brothers? please!!??
It was nice knowing you, Lori.
really bombing out with the fr's missing all the big ones -- any help out there?
consxhun, it's like what a ghost does
It's a ghostly looking word, but lacks a u to make it truly eery, Con (ha4/5)

fr7/40 - my favourite flower.
fr7/40 - plural French strawberry

TY - I still had to look for it after I'd entered it!!! must have a break! slater!
No - it just happens to have the same word count!
ooohhhh, me too, haz but it's too hot and humid here to grow them :-(
That isn't an English word!
I've never grown them either, but just love them.
the scent is to die for!!
and yet, "thar" is not accepted.
I protest!
I know - I stand sniffing at flower stalls until I get funny looks.
clue to mi9/66 please

mi9/66 - an old-fashioned criminal or wrongdoer
at once, peri
The last in7/28 should come to you in a flash
thanks movieman
fr 6/27? -- tried adding vowel to the 5/16 (uncages), but nothing worked -- have no idea who Mrs. Sharples is
thanks Haz
voilà !! a spray of fr7/40 for Haz!!!
Sorry cybernan - I thought you were a Coronation Street fan! fr5/16 - fr plus old fashioned woman's name of rearrangement of Scots one.
fr6 - put the first vowel before the old fashioned name.
hi all any clues for an 8/40/
Haz I think I have the right fr5/16 but don't know where to add the vowel, at the end?
Lovely, Une, thanks!
I see

Hello pabtrek - it's a noble task you undertake.

si7/32 - a command to chickens to be seated
that was a 5 -- looking for a 6 now... have oldfashoned name + vowel, french strawberry -- missing?
***The eagle had landed, I 're'peat, the eagle has landed***
Buh bye, nasty re words!
st7=st+vowel+number
st7/28 - a combination of Mr Laurel (of Laurel and Hardy fame) and the number before ten
that's what i clued, nan--most uncaged
thanks haz and movieman... just one more to go, let's see if i can make up a word on my own
Liberty meets an abbreviated street, cyber.
sorry, haz -- can't count! :(
Keep going Lori, we're right behind you.
haz... command to chickens to be seated? great clue. but also hilarious.
thanks haz
HAz, is that another way of saying I'll take the first bullet?
Glad it worked, redshoes!

I said behind you, Lori - quite far behind.....

i have 7 of them, how many are there?
does anyone have sn 6/21? it's my last word and my eyes hurt from staring at this since 8:30 a.m.

cr6/21 - if it began with e, it would mean rubs out. Or try c plus burns to the ground.
oh, i forgot a pl
sn6/21 - sn6 ends in the same way as cr6/24

Yea stid!

cybernan what's the he4/5 babblet

ah the not his
The sn 6/21 is a weird word.
no, pab. pronoun + different consonant

how many he4's are there
In a grid this big? Really easily.... :)
no words are easy after a while!

Santa is a guy, and he's holding the ***** to the ****deer
oh. duh.
Okay, b***ball
thanks Lori
re + double consonant + b***ball, then plural
ty lori :) got there eventually!
ty Lori
Oh, thanks! I was looking at that earlier, but thought it made no sense to pl the re4. Just goes to show that thinking doesn't serve us well while Babbling.
That thinking will get you nowhere Vic..... :)
are the i's all hard or am I being really stupid?
Don't try to be reasonable! :)
I know. It's a bad habit. My kids are trying to break me of it.
i's are pretty regular words
I have 8 of the i's and they
in = internal
re relatively normal
in = quick!
*sigh* i;m being stupid then LOL
in = crazy, or crazed
can neone help me with the i words?????
Just a little jumpstart for the brain. Been there, done that.....
Ata, using the double consonant will get you 4 of them.
in = an old fashioned place to stay
okay, I made an executive decision. I have two chapters left to listen to in Treasure Island (AARRGH) and I can keep babbling while I do that.
oooh ty all *runs off to thwack the i's*
in
Am actually working on the trading cards! :-)
in + a set of stitches on clothing
You can? I'm trying to carve while Babbling, and I'm really really bad at multi-tasking.

That should give them all to ya'.
there are 10 i's
good morning all,

hi flosey
Oh boy, I need to get to work on those trading cards, too!
G'd afternoon Flosey!

I have to wait in between painting steps. Decided to free-hand the cards since there are so few :-)
sa = a** (picnic pest) + r*** are what tires go on
dear Dr_G helped my with mine *grin*
Yes, I think Nut has managed to leap ahead of all of us!
hm. *wondering what Atalante is doing*
*feels left out cause she's not an artist*
I have stid's all planned out, but not the others yet.
make poetry ones then!
Well, you could be if you wanted, hursh!
how about math ones? with like, integrals on them or something
are there only 2 sm words
Geometry will get you a long way toward art.
yes
and you dont have to be *artistic* to make trading cards. just creative
how does this work again? are these online cards, or do you print them, or what?
thanks babble
*mental note, am done with SC and SM*
*handsover to stid* she's in charge
wow, that one took a while!!!
Yea hursh!
Fireworks
congrats flosey
yay
Congrats, flosey
yay flosey!

brb
thanks for those sa clues, was really stuck on that one
Congrats Flosey!
thanks all, any clues needed?
ugh, i still need TEN S's
YAY flosey
how many s's are there
I had no idea you could pluralize that th 4/5, until now.....
60
wow, thanks hurshy
hurshy sorry I had to let the dog in. You can play! math is good too... there is info about ATCs at http://www.cedarseed.com/air/atc.html
flosey, i don't suppose you can guess which C i am missing?
that's a great easter icon stid
which th4/5 Lori
oh cedarseed :) I know her, she's a sweetie
lol, let's try hurshy
thanks flosey :-)
could it be cr6/21?
you KNOW her? (worships at Atalante's feet) she is so amazingly cool!
okay, last chapter of Treasure Island loaded...
hurshy, or could it be cr6/24
lol she is. she's a nice person. and very very good at art!
i got them ones from haz cluing
and she said there's only one cr4, right?
are there any 7's or 8's?
no, no 8, maybe 7.
Hello again. sorry. Wolfie waited till I logged on before insisting he wanted to go commune with the grass.
botheration, i need the pollock.
but you're missing a c word? cr4/6, cr5/14, cr6/21, cr5.14 x 2, cr6.24, cr5.14 again, cr6/24 x 2, cr5/12
so are you guys actually mailing physical cards to each other or just sending them online.
mailing
no, i got it flosey, i'd forgot to put in a plural.
hey!
<*(--(((>---<<< pollock for hurshy
more fun to actually get hold of pretty things!
ok, good
that is quite a good pollock for the medium, stid, you really ARE an artist.
so did y'all find a safe way of exchanging addresses?
missing an in 6 & 7 -- maybe a combo? -- have the inside part of a pant leg combo and at the moment
Hi there!
LOL *blush* thanks hurshy
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi there!
hello gapeach
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi there!
Hi, GaPeach.
hi hurshy -- good to see you here -- missed you yesterday!
oh my
eeemail
whether to stay or flee?
oh, thanks cnan. i'm a little down today, so it's good there's a big grid.
do you have the crazy in?
ok, back and reconnected.. what's up, gapeach?
well then ata, forward me said email, pls and ty
Stay, Stid.
i want to play artist
missing an in 6 & 7 -- maybe a combo? -- have the inside part of a pant leg combo and at the moment
Hey, Aloy
stid, do you want to send hurshy your wonderful trading cards email?
you will all be like, wow, hurshy sucks, but at least i will get to play.
nan, do you have the in6 - off your rocker?
sorry to hear that , hurshy -- if you want to vent, we will sympathize :)
no -- thanks, flosey
hurshy, it will be fun to have you aboard! :-)
hi Charm! are you having fun with this grid? I'm very slow today, another babble-interruptus day, lol
No safe way. We did it unsafely. I weighed the possibility that stidmama was really a psycho killer one town over from me, and I decided to chance it.
Yay, hurshy's playing!
well yes but i meant like you didn't post them on line, lol
wish they were all that easy, flosey!
stidmama? you're really a psycho killer/
B. interruptus? LOL. Doing well. It's raining, so a good babble day - no guilt for not doing something else.
so wait, they can be any kind of art at all, as long as they are 2.5 x 3.5?
hurshy, the idea of trading cards is not to produce marvellous works of art. its to have fun making something for friends.
oh yes Atalante! did I forget to mention that? *cue psycho music*
oh, i REALLY wish it would rain here... drought conditions, not good..
lol nan, there are some really tough ones today
well i can probably manage that :)
Anything anything!
excatly hurshy! photos, collages, crayon...
rain also means humidity. which mean .... frizz nightmares.
are they supposed to be on card stock?
and I very promise that my icon is a good clue to the level of art I am capable of producing... pretty and insipid often describe me!
no -- some are made of cardboard and some of the Fimo -type clay, and some of just paper. It's up to you.
on whatever really, anything goes as long as its the right size in the end!
wowee, this does sound fun
I think the world can always use more pretty, and insipid is often the snob's way of denigrating what other people like.
Okay, back to dive into the se's, then I'll have tamed this beast!
go Lori go!
snob says: denegrating lol
hi all
lol
;-) words and words. It's being nice (like Atalante's friends cedarseed) that is really important. IMHO
G'd afternoon Jilli
hi Jillerooskidoo!
hi jillibus
(On the other hand, don't even talk to me about Thomas Kincaid!)
have a look through this gallery, hurshy, for some random cool cards. they are called ACEOs there. http://enui.deviantart.com/gallery/
Hey, jillibus
hello again all - sa7/32 please
it's one thing to be sweet, it's another to mass-market it!
Kincaid! ARGHHHHHHHHH! *runs*
huzzah! RL Stevenson's work stands the test of time! the story is over.
don't have it yet, ursh.. sorry
hey Atalante! I have a great idea! let's do Kincade-like paintings on velvet...
s+ picnic pest + tr*** his moustache
too bad bex isn't around these days, she might enjoy this too.
How is everone doing with this grid? I'm short of time as usual and find it intimdating -- only got 98 words last night so have 230 left, ugh!
struggling to find three more before pulling up BJ's heavenly guide
it went pretty fast until I got down to 100 Jill. Still entering words in list now.
ty lorip
You can do it jilli! There are definitely some odd words in this one
Not doing very well, jilli. But then, I'm trying to do two things at once, and not doing wither well.
*either*
and now... The Prisoner of Zenda (I love this book!)
Oh well, I'll try although I'm not really awake -- had to get up really early for me -- had an 8:30 appointment
go Jill go!
ty, Lori... just got the sa7
trying to work out LoriP's clue at 1:45 and not succeeding

yay!
Yea stid! Go! Go! Go!
oh, what is it stid?
screeches to stop. last CR 6 please?
Now this is weird -- that sa7/32 went into my word list, but Lickety rejects it!
the LAST A is what pirates put out to...
Oh, silly me -- was trying to enter it into yesterday's Lickety list, duh!
oh Jill! I did that once -- very frustrating it was too!
1 ah; 1 ai; 1 am; 15 an; 9 ar; 1 as
hello BR, happy Thursday!
st7/28 please
now I have to enter what I have into the right Lickety, and get lunch -- back later!

Congrats, Lori
st + 1st vowel + number before 10

the ah is a buddhist/hindu word meaning the practice of nonviolence...
tx lorip
***gratefully accepts fizzy juice***
missing an re 5 & 6 -- combo maybe? -- other than the enzyme(s), all my re 5's are plurals
first word of the puzzle?
nice clue, stid.
aha! got it
I saw someone give a definition earlier...
i'm tired
there's an re 5 solo, followed by an re 6/7 combo, is that it cyber?
so am I ...

lol
let's see if it stays away... *stern mama an**-troll look*
the first sa5/12 please
rae..... what kind of dog do you have?
I have two bichons
I don't have it pabtrek.
is anyone else have problems with the chat being too wide and loosing the last words
aww...they're a real nice looking dog

yours is a ..shitzu?
someone just said they found an mi 9. I have the mi 9/66 will trade for the other one.
phantom: enema
yes ren8. the troll made it wonky
question: not word related, I have somehow made the chat log skinny and can't find the fix for it. Any thoughts?
I also had spyware detected a moment ago, not sure what that means
i have one sa5/12...past tense of the sa4/4 before it
sn 6/21?
could the troll do that to us from here?
that's the one i have Cathyar
trolls can get in like that and change things?
time for me to visit antivirus.com i guess.
when i do that though, i always seem to end up accidentally getting rid of things
ooh.. chat log just shifted!!!!!!!! weird
well I tried refreshing babble and it's still weird.
YESSS!!! I just got the OTHER mi9, and the mi10 - all by my lonesome!! I am on a ROLL today folks!
firefly, can you share please?
hey ya'll
u go firefly grrl!!!!!!!!! ;)
Im running spybot at the moment and then will do my windows defender. Chat log keeps doing that
hi terri!
the width of the chat window has to do with how many characters are typed in without a break
hi grammaterri!
so when the trolls type their long hellos into it it messes up
but it will fix itself
k
i'd be happy to share - the mi9/10 combo is to wrongly outline or describe and then plural
Hi gramma, thanks for the explaination
thanks firefly *thinking*
welcome, you can fix it right away by typing a couple words over and over and hitting enter
got em!
oh it's fixed now ( :
yay!!!!!!! bk to normal!
the other mi9 is a deviant, evildoer, villain
ok back to the grid for me now, 180 left
yippee! Dr_G to the rescue, I bet!
gramma you are a star, that was really annoying me
just like the troll in an mi9
happy babbling, splash ( :

hi stidmama, have been travelling and visiting family in texas
Cathy: if you totals your car you cr***** it. take out the H
hope you had fun, sounds like the weather there is at least better than it was in January!
fr6/27 = fr4/7 + **p time for cranky toddlers.
thanks Charm!
it was in the 80's in texas and a shock to come back to sleet
ok I have to go get my laundry out and then cook dinner, I might be back later to tackle this grid

fr6/27 = mayst thou fr**** thine slaves.
Charm - was that the one you just clued using f4/7 + **p time for toddlers?? the ending doesn't jive for me...but i got the new clue
fr4/7 + **pster for downloading music?
na6 please
how can that work charm?
Charm - i get the ending letters, i must not have the right fr4/7 then
some people have a na**** to look after their kids.
thanks Charm, thought that ended in Y
Jean - are you asking me?
Peri - I think it does, but ....
yes, that fr4/7
60 left time for another break, getting tired of this grid
Jean, not sure how it can, but it does. It's a lame babble answer - sorry.
what you describe comes out to frna
fr4/7 + ending. you missed a couple of letters after the R.

IN 6/18 please?
hi mo!
later peri....
Hey, mo, stid.
EspritdJean - she's saying to add ON to a fr4/7 those two ending letters...i just don't know what fr4/7!
hi stid.
fr4/7 - fr + 2 vowels.
and Charm
evening Mo, ive still got 194 words to find, dont think I will finish today
in6/28 = pl of opp of outer.
stid - i have two, crazy and plural of within
hello ren ... it looks a toughy!!
sorry about that FR - assumed you had the fr4/7.
some of it is easy, will just keep plodding along
good luck.
fr4/7, as in opposite of caged up? Like fr** as a bird? I can't add "na" to that and make a word...i'm so lost
thanks firefly! TEN to go!
thanks Mo, see you tomorrow
the 2nd dr6/24 please? (it's also the last dr6/24)

an8/40 = an4/4 (against) + s4/4 (pl of a kind of medicine/vaccine)
first TA 5/12 please?
past tense of the ta4/4 before it stid, i think
sorry, stid. the 1st I have is past tense of a ta4/4.
there's a ta 4/5 before the one I want that doesn't believe in past tense...
the first TA is the 4/5 rhymes with sticky black stuff for roads and roofs

*turning into a pirate* avast! I have four scuuurrrrrrvy wurds left afore I git the tressurrre...
sn 6/21?

mi9 and mi10 are to wrongly outline or describe, and the other mi9 is a deviant, villain
mi+de6,30 then plural.; the other is mi9 is a villain

I think SAT's are an American thing, Aloy
oops, sorry, you are right cybernan..
bye Aloy, see you tomorrow
SATs are Scholatic Aptitude Tests
we take SAT's when we are 11 I think, I know I did years ago, not sure they still do
ren8 -- I thought those were called Eleven Plus tests
bye Aloy...
not when I was at school, I only took SAT's and then GCSE's at 15/16
bye Aloy -- just read your profile -- great story!
Maybe Eleven Plus was a nickname, or before your time?
re6/30plz
in7/28 please, not the going mad one
in 7/28: right now!!
cheers Cybernan
We had to write university entrance exams at the end of grade 12, but they were just called departmentals
Aloy -- are you still here I hope? I also read your great profile and want you to know that my chmisty teacher in high school was Mr. Ambrose Aloyisius Clegg. Now THAT's a name too!
It was such a long time ago I cannot remember what age I was , but I know I definately did SAT exams, before secondary school
I taught with an Antonio Amerigo
The SATs I took in the USA were college entrance exams
lol ren 8 -- you aren't old enough for anything to have been a long time ago! Jilli and I are going back 45 years or more!
it seems a long time ago to me. My son was born 3 years ago and that seems a long time ago, I dont know where time goes
Can I have a clue for an 8/40?
Time I went and hauled out the dusters -- been putting it off too long -- see you at the flip :)
bye Cybernan, take care and enjoy your housework... NOT
an 8: against + what is loaded in the vaccination needles
TTFN nan!
TY nan, have fun cleaning

I logged on at lunch and got about 100 words but still have a bunch to go!! Better dive in I guess!
Enjoy the gird smd, grid that is....
I like to get a few grey rectangles... then I like to get them in a pattern... then I find there's a bunch of rectangle with only one or two to go... then I can't stand it and look up the list... then I realise the kids have graduated and left home...
I tried putting in re + a birds' home. The little box says you already have it, but it's not there. So I refr*** and get shut out! Someone's not playing very fair 8(
LOL Hillary!!

wd bett!!! yay!!!
Thanks and Thanks!! :-)
hello feather, hello everyone else. i do not have time for this grid tonight. but i'm here
hey, dorens
i didn't recognize you feather -who you got there? when i click on your icon, i see the usual
me too dorens
ohh, beautiful sunset out the back window!
Howdy, Dorens.
Hello Dorens!
fair-weather babblers
what??? who said that?
i just switched it a second ago! it was sawyer from lost
brb
i've been trying to download a beautiful red sunset for my icon, but it isn't happening. after ten minutes, i reallized that if i don't have time for the grid tonight, i certainly don't have time to waste on icons... so here i am
well, for christ's sake - PUT HIM BACK!!
i second helen... he's a hunk. who cares if he isn't red?
absolutely dorens - ita!
had to just snap some pics, that was gorgeous
lol, be right back then!
lol
ok, he's back, drool to your heart's content!
if we put on rose colored glasses - he could be red
thanks.. keep us old ladies content
yeah baby
he makes your face red, how about that?
that's good feather!
hee hee
helen, are you doing the grid?
Hello all!
hi nonnie!
Hello NonnieLight!
you know, as i was watching the show last night, i was thinking how good the makeup people were, cause they make them look so sweaty like you could almost smell them, yet they all look gorgeous - especially russo, she made me think that she must really be stinky, yet beautiful - kinda like charlotte rampling in a way
Hi Nonnie...Hi Feather
Hi Helen!
hiya renniw, smd, nonnie et al
i was pondering the ladies' shaved armpits actually! wondering if their razors were getting dull by that point
yep feather - i feel confident in racing you today - even with 104 to go
they must wax feather
lol! it's a no contest! actually, i'll use the grid time to research buying a new car
is "the show" idol? i almost need to watch it just to keep up with the chat here and in the lunchroom at school (teachers' room) but it just isn't my cup of...
no, i'm talking about "lost"
ha - had not noticed the gal's armpits
oh, ok... that makes more sense i iguess
dorens - in response to my 6:20 comment on smelliness
yeah, i think they get fresh razors for idol!
lol
last night was so good, wasn't it helen?
lol feather - but most of those boys don't use them - it's refreshing to see a nice smooth face every once in a while - like chris sligh - i like him
Chris is my favorite male singer
he's cute, i like him too.
yes helen, makes much more sense then (but i haven't been watching that either... suppose i should be)
last night's lost i mean
yes feather , although, i think it was drbernardo last night saying that people had put 2 + 2 together & figured out the 'surprise connection' in on-line chat, methinks, but i don't see how, i don't remember any clues linking those 2 together
if you ever go to www.thefuselage.com, there are a bunch of message boards, and people were guessing about claire and jack ages ago, just as a theory
they were thrilled to be proven right! there were some clues, i just don't remember them
arfed was not found in the dictionary? what is the past tense of arf?
woofed
dorens - yes, you should, if only for the double fun of sawyer & sayiid - tough call for me which i like better
thanks feather:)
ok. one of these days i will helen
feather - frustrating - i've watched every show & can't think of one thing to connect them :(
coming from the bathroom: COME HERE NOW MOMMY!!!! me: are you done? him: YEAH!!!!
bbl
LOL feather - bye
(he's in the tub, not on the potty)

Mine are in the tub right now.

Hi, hurshy. I'm probably not after today... brain drain from this grid...

26 left
Depends on the fifth grader, I suppose.
well, they just ask you questions
and you have to know stuff
like what gas we exhale and plants need to live
they give you like 2000 bucks for that!!
re6/30 please, stuck in the RE words arrrgghhhh
Likewise, hurshy, and still have 15 more to go... might not make it! We exhale propane and plants need dead fish to live... anybody knows THAT!!
Which is all the money in the world to a fifth grader.
re6/30 - a blushing colour and a fish part.
LOL, scarlet
Smarter that a Fifth Grader is on Fox and Jeff Foxworthy is cracking me up!!
thanks you dear Haz
And not bad for some of the rest of us, either.

what the heck F am i missing? hmmm
sa6/21 adds a vowel to the archaic sounding verbal sa5/12
peri, sa5/12 + a vowel
thanks Haz, and Une, didn't think of that, was proud of myself to find the sa5/12 in the first place
checking icon. I changed to red finally.

And so you should!
Oh, Une, I saw that clue earlier... and my French is very poor. Please clue again... I caught Haz's clued for a 6/27, but I don't know strawberries in French. Thank you.
f plus a word meaning to lift up.
f + lift higher
f + ra5/10
scarlet -- of all people you should have a red icon!
yes, come on scarlet. you can Do it!! (of course I couldn't)
sa7 please
Got it, Une! Thank you. Yes, jilli... but I was caught in the web of this grid. Dorens...yes, I did, with a good amount of help from Une and Haz. Down to 11 left!
sa7 - first three letters of mental competency, then plural Tiny Boy from a Christmas Carol.
great, scarlet!
good clue, thanks Haz
You're welcome, peri.
Thank you Haz and Une. Whew! Getting weary...
Thanks for that sa7, so how come there isn't an sa6?
16
OOH, PERI...I JUST CUT A NASTY FART.
Hello, Douglas.
86 -lol
Who knows, Douglas?
Hello Scarlet...I have a mere 128 left...
lol
sc5/14 please
can someone help me with the first re6/30 and re7/44 been stuck on these for awhile
that sa 7 word is singular currency in Latvia, the plural ends in I
sc5/14 beat it
did you, cupcake? have you got a smell transmitter? can you send it my way so i can see if it is worse than my cat's?
Get lost, peri, beat it...
sc5/14 - an invitation to disappear
sheesh, thanks Douglas
thanks Haz
*I mean I as in Inge
yw, peri...
last sc6/22 please
re6/30 and plural: (a fish) today's color + what sticks up out of the water
meant last sc6/21 please
Too much information, cupcake...
speedfreak - re6/30 - a blushing colour and a fish part.
I'm stuck on the an6/18, and am not sure it it's the first or second one; and the 6/21 & 7/32 combo in the AN world... Please.
sc6/21 - plural of sc5/12 that begins the sequence
Thank you so much that was driving me crazy
thanks Haz
down to dreaded 14 :)
an6/18 approaches
So that's what your remuneration would be if you were in Riga...
an6/18 can be either a plus approaches, gets closer, or an6/18 - an plus a rearranging plural number before eleven
:) peri
owie owie owie
It's the latter... I'll work on it, Haz. Thank you.
I guess so, Douglas. Last time (only time) I was there they gladly took our dollars
Scarlet - it ends with an abbreviated saint or street
si5/12 please
si + ruin a perfect painting
add a vowel to si4/5 (sounds like a stringed instrument)
my mart is a very very very fine mart
That's the one, Haz. Thank you.
si5/12 - structured the same as the Indian stringed instrument that follows it, but use a different consonant in the middle.
thanks Haz
an6 and an7 combo - plant related parts. A picnic pest and a female personal possesive pronoun.
i STILL need 7 s's, this is nuts
first si4/5 please
si4/5 - si plus the start of the definite article.
Sorry - si plus shortened affectionate term for mother.
I only have the si4/5 that is what Obi-Wan's padawan became...
have that Haz, isnt there one before that
dont' get your clue Douglas
Got them Haz. Thank you.
Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the ****
thanks Haz
Sorry for the confusion!
it's okay Haz
si7 please
si7 - continuing the Star Wars si4 - I've clued it before as a command to chickens to be seated.
clever clue, Haz, thanks
missing si5/12 please
9
si5/12 - si plus the beginning of the red planet
Go peri, go!!
thanks Haz
clued at 7:32
st7 please
st7 - a combination of Mr Laurel (of Laurel and Hardy fame) and a number
you gotta fight! for your right! to vooooooote!
I got 126 words.
thanks Haz
thanks Haz
7 left all SE words
clue for the 10?
You're welcome. Dark, you're making progress!
Dark, you are doing amazingly well. Keep at it!
thanks haz, scarlet.
next to last se5/10 please
Clue for the ah6/24? I'm lost. YW, Dark.
You are doing very well Dark
Minski - mi10/105 - does not describe something properly. A real fault in a dictionary worker.
thanks peri.
ah6 - a plus three letters of a mountain range (think Everest). Then add the two letters that are used in a simile, but in reverse order.
Thank you Haz... again!
se5/10 - on its way to being spectacular, especially with regards to feeling.
You're welcome, Scarlet.
thanks Haz, odd word
yay, thanks haz
Filled in a blank, hurshy?
se6/18 after that se5 please Ha
well, yes
The an6/18 and 7/28 combo after the contrary word have me stumped. Help!? Please?
but the blank stare remains
se6/18 - adds a plural letter to the se5/10
Scarlet - use the against four letters and add the start of Mr Garfunkel, or the Camelot King.
that's a different 5/10
And then plural for an7/28
that doesn't work Haz for se6/18
Haz, those are new words to me. Thank you once again.
That is one se6/18 - There's spanish se4/4, made into french 'will be' with the addition of a vowel and then pluralled for se6/18. There is another sequence later on, though.
How many words are in the list?
Done!
let's talk about this other sequence later on :)
328
congrats, gramma!!!
se6/18 - add the opposite of out to the se4/4 (anagram of the prophet), and plural for se7/28
TY.TY.
Well done gramma!
have that last sequence Haz, thanks
aHA! THAT was my last 7!
but still missing next to last se6/18
Way to go, gramma! Towel, tea... something stronger? Wow!
Just a little potato juice.
whew!! me too--fireworks!!
WTG gramma
5
It's se plus the start of the uplifting word.
Yay for Une
Well done Une!
Man, so I have 129 out of 328, I am not going to finish todays word list.
Holey Moleys...it's a party! Fabuloso, Une!
thanks Haz
For the other se6/18, peri (I think)
Vodka it is, gramma! LOL
Are you kidding? It's vodka?
3 left, back after Grays Anatomy
I thought it was vegie juice
I'll send you congratulations in advance for your fireworks, peri!
peri, you have time. What do you need?
LOL... whatever you little heart desires!
I have 113 words left...I'm going to go drinking...
re 6/24 please?
And I'm off to bed so I'll bid you all good night! Big grids are fun, but I'll settle for less fun tomorrow...
night haz
Dorens? I thought you weren't going to play?
nite, haz
Thank you again for everything, Haz. You are a wonder. Yes, a touch less tomorrow!
I don't seem to have re 6/24.
me too.... i shouldn't have but quietly ignoring the grid i'm down to 36 and will be up till 2 am tonite doing what needs doing
Oh, Dorens... you ignore very well! LOL
well, then i'll take re 7/28 if you have that gramma (i'm not proud)
Well - happy babbling to all - including Dorens! Good night....

i need 6/24 tho thanks gramma
:) haz nitey nite
re+ Corned Beef ****
aha! thaks
Yea!!
Dorens, my list is really messed up.I'm finished but I don't have the ones your looking for???
no problem gramma. thanks for trying
Don't feel too bad, gramma... I spilled coffee over mine and it's very difficult to tell what the heck I need for my last R and my last S. Wow, is it confusing at this point!
Okay. I hit refresh. Now maybe I can help. I don't get what's up with this tonite.
I finished and had firworks. Then it said I had 100 left.
So they tricked you.
I mean the list.
off for a celebratory ciggie and cocktail.
girls, just found the best site ever! http://www.silverjewelryclub.co m/upcoming_products.aspx
enjoy gramma/
the list tricked you gram
gramma -- enjoy the cocktail but douse the ciggie!!!

hi autumn!
Hey, autumn moon!
insane prices nut, is that for real? hi autumn
dorens, my former future sis in law bought stuff there, she says it's real, and she showed me a ring she bough....it was nice.
ok thanks, then... worth looking into
hey jilli, I didn't see you come in
i'm waiting for the pretty yellow ring to come up.
hi jill, hi scarlet. I just logged on...looked at the 310 and then called to order pizza
send some here, please autumn moon
i could stand some pizza...brb
yes, that site's real, i've bought many things from it! all very pretty.
okay,,,,diving into the grid while waiting for pizza
hi featherbumble!
Better order six pizzas, Autumn... I just spend six minutes hunting for my last word, and it was a five letter, easy to spell, plural, but it is done! I am free!
hi all! hey nut! I actually got productive on making my cards today...
YAY Scarlet!
hi stid
*spent*
now then, where was i.
Hi, Stid!
australia.
ah yes, australia
yay scarlet!!!! 22 left here and a very sore left wrist
and you must have suspected that i would have known the powder's origin...
hiya stid. i'm not really here, just pop over every now and then to see what's happening in chat!
go Dorens go! *hands ice pack*
Thanks, Dorens. Why? From keying in all the zillions of oddments and pounding on your brain!? LOL
that's okay. should I check your blog again? there wasn't anything new this afternoon yet.
ty stid... down to 21 now. yes... very very very tired monkeys
just a new post about lost, that's it
i've really slowed down on the blog lately
i'm driviing to boston tomorrow in a noreaster and doubt that i'll be able to babble when i get there... so trying to finish today nd it will tide me over till saturday
hurshy is looking for a man with six fingers. (you killed my father! prepare to die...)
hmmmmmmm.. pondering that one
I haven't been really good about blogging either and once again I am woefully behind on the story...
ack
forget it
list time
why are you driving in a noreaster? wouldn't a souwester be warmer?
Is that physically possible... to be tided over, I mean. Gosh, I had 11 people here for a huge dinner on Thanksgiving and managed to sneak in a few words here and there!
lol, just noticed what you were doing hurshy! sorry i didn't join in, was flipping back and forth between sites
do you get to see the princess while you're there, Dorens?
back with pizza.
I'm not very good at the movie quotes game, I am afraid. I am a "general impressions" person, not a detail-in-words type.
*snags big gooey piece of pizza from nut*
princess? in boston?
i sneezed on that one.
course stid... the main reason i'm going. they need a babysitter tomorrow nite (princess is my grandaughter hurshy) princess phoebe
*quickly returns pizza to box*
nut - how did you get yours so fast?
;-) I mean the princess phoebe, dorens' grandchild.
it helps to have seen the movie 683 times stid. roughly...
welp autumn...i gots connections
I guess I could get a pizza pop from the freezer...
ROFL I suppose it would! *mental note to watch it tomorrow when kids are at school*
okay, back to grid
pizza pop? did they invent a new delicacy?
pizza pop? i prefer soda pop myself.
hi everyone!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWL

frannie!
hi Fran! how's life these days? balmy? grabbing bananas and mangos off your front porch?
hey heather! congratulations on your baby news!
it was an MA word, Dorens
hi stid!
Clue for first re6, anyone?
thank you!
it's actually the name of the windy month, Dorens...
hi fran -- heather? baby news?
it's a boy jilli
so i'll have two sons
re 6: re* (color) + flippy thing on a fish
i'm ashamed to say it, but i'm missing the mi 9.. and i'm shore it's easy
re6 is a type of fish, color + fish appendage
that
Oh -- she meant Feather! Did you decide on a name yet?
dorens is sore and easy?
yes, and his name is gonna be Timothy-look at me fly off the house!
dorens, you might call a villain a mi9 (born bad?)
jilli, it's percival ignacious.
i'm liking christopher...at the moment! who knows a month from now!
got it thanks franmag!!
sorry, switched on you stid!
oh, yes, and nut has her own delusions about the name. i am impressed that she's keeping it consistent now though!
sore easy and several other things, nut
good name, christopher -- he'll get a nickname...
Many thanks, Fran
yw dorens, that was my favorite word of the day!
LOL it's okay feather, but you'll see -- you'll call him (yoo-hoo chris!) and he won't come. And then someone he doesn't know will say timothy and he'll look up...
lol stid!
yw grant
yeah, if his brother doesn't beat him to the "fly off the roof" nickname
daniel's such a monkey
que marta, marta... whatever will mart, will mart
no one will fly off the roof, that's what trees are for stid.
micro just dinged - bbl
should i just call him tarzan and save time?
:-P boys. My first didn't climb at all. ever (I think it was the paralysis), then the second came along and I couldn't keep him contained!
rumplestiltskin!
As I said before: Timothy Tim has ten pink toes. Ten pink toes has Timothy Tim. They go with him wherever he goes. Wherever he goes they go with him.
ooo-OO-oo-oooooh-ah! (tarzan call)
marty is always a nice name :) :) :)
daniel climbs everywhere. climbs his kitchen set to inspect the nearby spice rack, climbs the changing table to play with desitin, climbs the crib rail while it's up and yells if i put it down
and if you call him something else, feather, then he won't have ten pink toes! (holding toes hostage)
here we go again. the an8 please (my last a)
too late, we saw the cute toesies on the ultrasound!
an** (against) + que **** (french for "whatever")
dorens, plural of poison cure
*carefully puts toes back and uses lots of superglue*
lol
My mother-in-law called her youngest son Rhodes Bethune (family names) but used to cuddle him with that verse, and to this day he is known as Tim and called his son Timothy. Sometimes nicknames really work!

*cuddles fluffy Suze* *sneeze* *cuddles more*
her vocabulary is improving every day -- the "hello" is clearer and "mum" seems better too
happy to h*** it, Jill! :-) and what about the invisible gate man?
i honestly believed that the re8/40 would be a plural of the re7/28, but now that i know what the re 7/28 is-----
yes Dorens, plural...
awww, pauvre, pauvre stidmama! (pauvre = poor in french)
je nes pas pauvre! je suis tres riche avec alors!
stid -- the gate man is still invisible and deaf. I'm summoning the cavalry.
coach k & duke out in first round

hi, by the way
hi Tea and oldhouse
TnC -- I have a cat probably can't help, but ask away!
my cat has a loose tooth! It is her bottom fang tooth and it has been catching on her upper lip, making her look funny. Do I need to take her to the vet? She wouldn't let us get close to it today.
what do you need to know Tea?? I have 5 babies
TnC, I would definitely take her to the vet!
will they pull her tooth?
yep - vet
yes that's not normal, take her to vet
TnC -- never having had that problem I wouldn't know, but guess they would
poor kitty - that should be fun tomorrow - a 3.5 year old, a 1.5 year old and a skittish cat in the minivan - hee hee!

my kitties are getting old, I feel bad. we do have a carrier, I'll have hubby get it out in the morning and put a towel in it, I'm sure she'll pee everywhere.
